|Slow Cooker Coke Pulled Pork, often called Three Ingredient Pulled Pork, because it's typically made with a pork roast, barbecue sauce and most often, either Coca-Cola, Dr Pepper or root beer. Pictured here with homemade fries and my Apple Coleslaw
Slow Cooker Coke Pulled PorkI know, I know, it's supposed to be Fall, well... according to the calendar at least, that is. Although we got another nice blast of slightly cooler air again this week here in the Deep South, blink and we're right back into mid to upper-80 degree temps during the days and, well... it's still hurricane season for us anyway. It's pretty much still summer here, far as we're concerned. The nice parts of summer though, that we love so much here - beautiful blue, sunny skies and warm temperatures - but with that highly coveted lower humidity. Finally come out of the house without melting, nice to be outdoors weather!
Honestly the weather is flat out gorgeous right now y'all - perfect for our big annual Cruisin' the Coast event starting Sunday. If you're a classic car buff and you've never been, you really should make a trip down to check it out! It's a very big deal along the Mississippi Gulf Coast and a site to see.

I titled this recipe 'Slow Cooker "Coke" Pulled Pork,' but, if you're from The South, you know what that means.
Couple goes to KFC while out on errands. Wife tells her husband she would like a pot pie and a coke and her husband waits for the order while she grabs a booth. He hollers from across the room:
"Hun, whatdayawanna drink?True story. Yes, that, in fact was me and The Cajun when we stopped at a KFC while out and about on errands recently. If you're a Southerner you understand this "what kind of coke" conversation completely. Pretty good pot pie too by the way - first time I've ever had a KFC pot pie. I am so fast food sheltered. Well, you couldn't tell it from my ... well, nevermind.
A coke please.
What kind of coke?
They don't have Coke.
Okay, then Dr Pepper.
They don't have Dr Pepper. They have Pepsi.
Okay {sigh}, Pepsi then."
Where were we? Oh... in the interest of full disclosure, I'm not really in the Pepsi generation. I'm more a 'like to teach the world to sing' Co-Cola gal, and have been my whole life, but in the absence of a good ole genuine Coca-Cola, I will take a Dr Pepper. Or a Pepsi ... if I have no other choice. Coca-Cola is indeed King in the Deep South, but if you live where I'm from, your coke of choice just might be a Barq's root beer, in the bottle.
Because Deep South Dish is visited by folks from all over the U.S. and, even the world, I don't generally tend to use the term "coke" quite as loosely here on the site as we do regionally in our virtual lives - and though it pains me to have to say soft drink, I know y'all know what I mean when I say that - where the generic term of coke would probably just confuse everybody. Just know that When in The South, the term "coke" might mean Coca-Cola, but it could mean Dr Pepper or even root beer... the three most commonly used cokes at my house for this pulled pork recipe. In fact, the pork pictured here was made with Dr Pepper, and while some folks have ventured off into other flavors, those are the top three for me. They are all equally good.
So enough of the foodlore about our use of the word coke. Hey, we've got our ways, us Southerners and about all I can say about that is, well, if you're not from here, just get here as fast as you can!
This is a recipe that's been around for years, and is often referred to as three ingredient pulled pork, since the base is simply pork, some kind of coke and some kind of sauce to finish it with - pretty much a 'dump and go' recipe. Y'all ought to know by now that I rarely leave well enough alone though, right? Not that I like to randomly add ingredients just to trip y'all up or anything like that - I just like bumping up the flavor is all!
Here's how to make it.
Firstly {is that a real word? I don't really know - I just wanted to say it!}, I like to season and sear the meat. Just a little salt, pepper and Cajun will do it, but use your favorite pork rub, or whatever you want. This piece was bone-in and I cut it up around the bones to make it fit better in my pot.
Scatter some onion on top. Not a massive amount, just enough for some flavor.
I also like to combine the coke with a little barbecue sauce to add some more flavor to the pork along with the coke.
Cover and let it go all day. Or about 8 to 10 hours. Uncooked on the left, cooked on the right.
Here's that neat shredding tip you may have seen making the rounds on the internet thanks to Pinterest. Dump the chunks of meat into your stand mixer.
And, using the paddle attachment, beat it on low a few seconds until it's shredded. It's a cool tip really... if you don't mind having to clean the stand mixer. Truthfully, I usually just dump the meat into the container I intend to serve or store it in, grab tongs and a fork and get to work pulling the meat.
Sauce it up and dig in!
Recipe: Slow Cooker "Coke" Pulled Pork©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Inactive time: 10 hours | Yield: About 8 to 10 servings
- 1 (4 to 6 pound) pork butt or shoulder
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- Cajun seasoning, to taste
- 1 tablespoon of vegetable or canola oil
- 1 small onion, sliced (about a cup)
- 2 (12 ounce) cans of Coca-Cola, Dr Pepper or root beer
- 1 cup of homemade or commercial barbecue sauce, plus more for dressing
Cut meat into large pieces to fit the slow cooker, if needed. Season all over with salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning; rub in. Sear in oil, then add to slow cooker, scatter onions on top. Mix the root beer, Dr Pepper or Coke with 1 cup of barbecue sauce and pour over and around the pork. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or until meat is tender and shreds easily. Shred the meat, toss with additional barbecue sauce or serve the sauce on the side.
Cook's Notes: I used a 6 quart slow cooker. Cooking time will be dependent on the size roast you use and whether it is bone-in or boneless. If possible, turn the meat every few hours. Pork butt or shoulder is always the least expensive and most flavorful cut to use for pulled pork, although it is possible to substitute a pork loin in the crockpot. It is a much leaner cut however, and the result will be more dry and less flavorful than a butt or shoulder. Can also use this recipe with beef roast or chicken; adjust cooking times as needed.
Tip: If you have the time, transfer some of the drippings to a large pot and boil until reduced at least by half. Skim off any fat and use the reduction to flavor the shredded meat.

Ninja are everywhere in popular culture — they slice up mobsters in movies and fruit on your iPhone. We seem to think it makes sense to compare them to pirates and then think of them fondly as adolescent mutant turtles living in a New York City sewer with a kimono-clad rat.
But who were the ninja, really? That's what John Man, a British travel writer and historian, set out to explore in his new book, Ninja: 1,000 Years of the Shadow Warrior. He spoke to TIME about the fighters behind the legend.

Tilghman Walk to connect arts and sciences
A major east-west campus walkway linking the Lewis Center for the Arts to the science buildings that house genomics, neuroscience and psychology has been named by the Board of Trustees in honor of President Shirley M. Tilghman, who will step down at the end of this academic year after serving 12 years as president.
Tilghman Walk will link two major campus areas with close associations with Tilghman.
At its eastern end will be buildings that house the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics that Tilghman led before being named president, and the new homes for neuroscience and psychology (Peretsman-Scully Hall) that are scheduled for completion later this year.
At its western end will be the new home for the Lewis Center for the Arts and other buildings that will allow Princeton to achieve one of Tilghman's highest priorities as president, the expansion of Princeton's teaching capacities in the creative and performing arts.
The east-west path will also pass by two of the four-year residential colleges, Whitman College and Butler College, that were created during Tilghman's presidency.
"This walkway touches on many aspects of Shirley's presidency, and the trustees have chosen to name it for Shirley so that forevermore Tilghman Walk will remind future generations of the many ways her legacy shaped and strengthened Princeton," said Kathryn Hall, chair of the Board of Trustees.
Tilghman Walk joins several other named walkways on campus, including:
- Goheen Walk, named after Princeton's 16th president, Robert F. Goheen, parallel to and immediately north of Tilghman Walk, between Butler and Wilson Colleges and past the Lewis Thomas Laboratory;
- Shapiro Walk, named after Princeton's 18th president, Harold T. Shapiro, and his wife, Vivian, and extending east from Washington Road to the Engineering Quadrangle; and
- McCosh Walk, named after Princeton's 11th president, James McCosh, extending west from Washington Road and McCosh Hall to Lockhart Hall and University Place.

LAS VEGAS (AP) ? From the iPotty for toddlers to the 1,600-pound mechanical spider and the host of glitch-ridden "smart" TVs, the International CES show is a forum for gadget makers to take big ? and bizarre ? chances.
Many of the prototypes introduced at the annual gadget show over the years have failed in the marketplace. But the innovators who shop their wares here are fearless when it comes to pitching new gizmos, many of which are designed to solve problems you didn't know you had.
A search for this year's strangest (and perhaps least useful) electronic devices yielded an extra-loud pair of headphones from a metal band, an eye-sensing TV that didn't work as intended and more. Take a look:
Bass-heavy headphones that borrow the names of hip-hop luminaries like Dr. Dre have become extremely popular. Rock fans have been left out of the party ? until now. British metal band Motorhead, famous for playing gut-punchingly loud, is endorsing a line of headphones that "go to eleven" and are hitting U.S. stores now.
Says lead singer and bassist Lemmy Kilmister, explaining his creative input: "I just said make them louder than everybody else's. So that's the only criteria, and that it should reflect every part of the sound, not just the bass."
The Motorheadphone line consists of three over-the-ear headphones and six in-ear models. The initiative came from a Swedish music-industry veteran, and distribution and marketing is handled by a Swedish company, Krusell International AB.
WHO IT'S FOR: People who don't care about their hearing. According to Kilmister, the headphones are ideal for Motorhead fans. "Their hearing is already damaged, they better buy these."
PRICE: Prices range from $50 to $130.
A prototype of an eye-sensing TV from Haier didn't quite meet viewers eye-to-eye. An on-screen cursor is supposed to appear where the viewer looks to help, say, select a show to watch. Blinking while controlling the cursor is supposed to result in a click. In our brief time with the TV, we observed may quirks and comic difficulties.
For one, the company's demonstrator Hongzhao Guo said the system doesn't work that well when viewers wear eyeglasses. (That kind of defeats the purpose of TV, no?) But it turns out, one bespectacled reporter was able to make it work. But the cursor appeared a couple inches below where the viewer was looking. This resulted in Guo snapping his fingers to attract the reporter's eye to certain spots. The reporter dutifully looked, but the cursor was always a bit low. Looking down to see the cursor only resulted in it moving further down the TV screen.
WHO IT'S FOR: People too lazy to move their arms.
"It's easy to do," Guo said, taking the reporter's place at the demonstration. He later said the device needs to be recalibrated for each person. It worked fine for him, but the TV is definitely not ready for prime-time.
A company named after a bird wants to make life easier for your plants. A plant sensor called Flower Power from Paris-based Parrot is designed to update your mobile device with a wealth of information about the health of your plant and the environment it lives in. Just stick the y-shaped sensor in your plant's soil, download the accompanying app and ? hopefully ? watch your plant thrive.
"It basically is a Bluetooth smart low-energy sensor. It senses light, sunlight, temperature, moisture and soil as well as fertilizer in the soil. You can use it either indoors or outdoors," said Peter George, vice president of sales and marketing for the Americas at Parrot. The device will be available sometime this year, the company said.
WHOT IT'S FOR: 'Brown-thumbed' folk and plants with a will to live.
PRICE: Unknown.
If you don't watch what you put in your mouth, this fork will ? or at least try to. Called HAPIfork, it's a fork with a fat handle containing electronics and a battery. A motion sensor knows when you are lifting the fork to your mouth. If you're eating too fast, the fork will vibrate as a warning. The company behind it, HapiLabs, believes that using the fork 60 to 75 times during meals that last 20 to 30 minutes is ideal.
But the fork won't know how healthy or how big each bite you take will be, so shoveling a plate of arugula will likely be judged as less healthy than slowly putting away a pile of bacon. No word on spoons, yet, or chopsticks.
WHO IT'S FOR? People who eat too fast. Those who want company for their "smart" refrigerator and other kitchen gadgets.
PRICE: HapiLabs is launching a fundraising campaign for the fork in March on the group-fundraising site Kickstarter.com. Participants need to pay $99 to get a fork, which is expected to ship around April or May.
Toilet training a toddler is no picnic, but iPotty from CTA Digital seeks to make it a little easier by letting parents attach an iPad to it. This way, junior can gape and paw at the iPad while taking care of business in the old-fashioned part of the plastic potty. IPotty will go on sale in March, first on Amazon.com.
There are potty training apps out there that'll reward toddlers for accomplishing the deed. The company is also examining whether the potty's attachment can be adapted for other types of tablets, beyond the iPad.
"It's novel to a lot of people but we've gotten great feedback from parents who think it'd be great for training," said CTA product specialist Camilo Gallardo.
WHO IT'S FOR: Parents at their wit's end.
A pair of giant hydraulic and lithium polymer battery controlled beasts from Canadian art organization eatART caught some eyes at the show. A rideable 8-legged creature, Mondo Spider weighs 1,600 pounds and can crawl forward at about 5 miles per hour on battery power for roughly an hour. The 1,200-pound Titanoboa slithers along the ground at an as yet unmeasured speed.
Computer maker Lenovo sponsored the group to show off the inventions at CES.
Hugh Patterson, an engineer who volunteers his time to making the gizmos, said they were made in part to learn more about energy use. One lesson from the snake is that "side winding," in which the snake corkscrews its way along the ground, is one of the most efficient ways of moving along soft ground, like sand.
Titanoboa was made to match the size of a 50-foot long reptile whose fossilized remains were dated 50 million years ago, when the world was 5 to 6 degrees warmer. The creature was built "to provoke discussion about climate change," Patterson said.
The original version of Mondo Spider, meanwhile, first appeared at the Burning Man arts gathering in Nevada in 2006.
WHO IT'S FOR: Your inner child, Burning Man participants, people with extra-large living rooms.
PRICE: The spider's parts cost $26,000. The Titanoboa costs $70,000. Engineers provided their time for free and both took "thousands of hours" to build, Patterson said.

Looking dapper in a tiny tan pinstripe suit and orange shirt, a 2-year-old boy with only weeks to live served as the best man Saturday afternoon for his parents' Pennsylvania wedding.
Christine Swidorsky carried Logan Stevenson on her shoulder at the Saturday afternoon wedding in Jeannette, a suburb of Pittsburgh, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.
Logan stood with his grandmother, Debbie Stevenson, during a 12-minute ceremony uniting Logan's mother and his father, Sean Stevenson. The boy has leukemia and other complications.
"We're married," Swidorsky exclaimed joyously after kissing her groom to applause from family and friends.
After a whirlwind week, the Jeannette couple tied the knot in a hastily arranged backyard ceremony that formalized their union and celebrated Logan's life, which doctors say will be cut short soon by cancer.
The Stevensons abandoned an original wedding date of July 2014 after learning from doctors late last month that their son had two to three weeks to live. The couple wanted Logan to see them marry and to be part of family photos.
Logan dozed off and on during the ceremony, nestled on his grandmother's shoulder, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. Debbie Stevenson said he is on medication to make him comfortable, but it also makes him sleepy.
Swidorsky's mother died six years ago and her father died just two months ago, the newspaper said.
Logan, who was born Oct. 22, 2010, was diagnosed shortly after his first birthday with acute myeloid leukemia. He has Fanconi anemia, a rare disease that often leads to cancer.
He endured a stem cell transplant in July 2012. Last March, he underwent surgery to remove a kidney ravaged by a tumor.
During a Make-A-Wish trip to Disney World in June, Logan fell ill. He was hospitalized in Florida before he was flown back to Pittsburgh.
During a trip to the emergency room last month, a test revealed a mass in his remaining kidney, which led to his terminal prognosis. Logan is spending his remaining days at home, where he is showered with attention from family members.
Swidorsky's daughter, Isabella Johns, 13, served as bridesmaid and the couple's 1-year-old daughter, Savannah, was her parents' flower girl.
"This is our dream come true," Swidorsky said through tears, the Post-Gazette reported.

shamrock cake by i am baker. When I saw those pretty shamrocks piped on to the cake with icing, I just knew I had to try it with macarons. Mine are a bit uglier and messier than my inspiration but they're not too bad. I basically piped smaller heart shapes to create the petals, and then piped a skinnier stem connecting them from the centre. It was nearly impossible to pipe consistently but after a bit of practice I think I got the hang of it.
Shamrock Macarons with Baileys Chocolate Ganache
(makes about 15 macarons)
Note: These macarons are a little trickier, if you are a beginner with macarons read up and practice plain macarons first. BraveTart has lots of useful advice and info on the subject
100g aged egg whites (you can use fresh eggs too, just make sure they are room temperature. I always use fresh these days, and zap it in the microwave on defrost for 10 seconds)
110g almond meal, at room temperature and well sifted
200g icing sugar
50g caster sugar
Optional: 1 tsp powdered egg whites (available from The Essential Ingredient), helps to stabilise egg whites but is not necessary
To decorate: green food colouring (powdered or gel)
For the Baileys Chocolate Ganache:
150g (5.3 ounces) good quality dark chocolate, finely chopped
100ml (just under 1/2 cup) pure/pouring cream (or heavy whipping cream in the US, min 35% fat unthickened)
60ml (1/4 cup) Baileys Irish Cream
Line two baking sheets with baking paper. Place icing sugar in food processor and pulse for a minute to remove any lumps. Stir in almond meal and pulse for about 30 seconds to combine. Place in a large mixing bowl and set aside. Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and egg white powder in a medium mixing bowl until the egg white powder dissolves and it reaches soft peaks. With the mixer on high speed, gradually add sugar and beat until it reaches stiff peaks. (You can add the green food colouring to the meringue as you are beating it to stiff peaks, it makes it easier to adjust how much colouring to add. Otherwise add it in the next step.)
Add meringue to your dry mixture and mix, quickly at first to break down the bubbles in the egg white (you really want to beat all the large bubbles out of the mixture, be rough!), then mix carefully as the dry mixture becomes incorporated and it starts to become shiny again. Take care not to overmix, the mixture should flow like lava and a streak of mixture spread over the surface of the rest of the mixture should disappear after about 30 seconds. Place mixture in a piping bag. I fitted my piping bag with a narrower tip than usual, a half-moon shaped tip that was about 0.7cm wide so that I could pipe smaller shapes. Pipe three minature hearts at right angles to each other (see picture below, and this post for a description and video of how to pipe hearts). Then pipe a skinnier straight line joining them together from the centre to make the stem of the shamrock. Tap baking sheets carefully and firmly on the benchtop to remove any large bubbles.
Prepare the chocolate ganache; place chocolate in a large mixing bowl. Gently heat cream in a small saucepan until it just comes to the boil, then pour hot cream over chocolate and set aside for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to melt. Use a whisk to combine mixture until it is smooth (if the chocolate has not completely melted you can place it over a saucepan of boiling water and continue stirring it until it is completely smooth). Add Baileys (you can adjust the amount to taste) and use whisk to combine. Chill in the fridge until thick but still pipable. Pipe or spoon on to macaron shells and sandwich shells together. Place in the fridge overnight

Why Teachers Should Blog
That whole sort of essentialist argument has never been for me. I'm a guy who's built furniture out of science fiction novels and travel books and who's played concerts with nothing but a roll of tin foil and a microphone.
So I've never been too big on the idea that things exist because they have some fundamental essence.
Consider blogs.
There is no substantial qualitative definition of a blog. Blogs, or rather blogging platforms, just exist. The quality or essence of a blog is given meaning only via what the author does with the blog and how the blog is responded to.
And in my mind what this means is that I blog and what I blog -- and how that message is received by others -- tells me what I think.
And it tells me how I think.
My own blog confirms my suspicions that I'm not the most polite person in the world. My blog confirms one of my old professor's observations that in many ways my arrogance is my most important attribute. My blog reminds me that I'm boneheaded and tin-eared. My blog represents me not as an edited professional voice, but as a human being struggling to express ideas, thoughts, reactions, dreams, and general b.s. via a means that uncompromisingly allows for the immediate feedback of strangers and fellow wanderers.
And that's why I think all teachers should blog.
A student in my ed class last night -- a young 2nd year teacher in a Baltimore City public school -- said that he didn't feel like he had anything to offer on his blog or on Twitter. He couldn't think of anything in his classroom that he thought would advance the discussion.
It is in a way frustrating that he doesn't realize how obviously wrong he is. But, more so, it is indicative of his mindset that he is thinking too much. To blog, you can't always allow yourself to be burdened by overthinking. At times this will lead you to a scary place. A place without a safety net. A place full of prat falls.
Because to blog is to teach yourself what you think.
And sometimes what we think embarrasses us and we must then confront our thoughts and consider whether there are alternatives.
This is real maturity. Because real maturity is not about having the right answers, it's about having the audacity to have the wrong answers and re-address them in light of contemplation, self-argument, and experience.
This is made perhaps even more evident by the public nature of the blog, and that is one of the foremost reasons all teachers should in fact blog. Because to face one's ill conclusions, self-congratulations, petty foibles, and impolite rhetoric among peers in the public square of the blogosphere is to begin to learn to grow.
And to begin to understand that it's not all about 'getting it right', but rather is a matter of 'getting it'.
We live in a culture that tells us that you learn from your mistakes, yet which continually punishes and shuns those who make mistakes. It is teachers who have the power to change this. It is teachers who have the power to teach a generation that to fully live and to fully know one's self is to fully live and to fully know one's self in the public conversation. And that to be wrong or to come off as shrill is not always a bad thing; because those too are forms of experience and in reflection they too are to be learned from.
And so, we should teach this new generation to move beyond embarrassment and fear. This is not to condone manifestly insolent behavior online, rather in teaching the qualities -- the unique qualities -- of the globally connected public square, we should be instilling in students both a strident determination to take part in the unadulterated public debate and yet have humility.
I think both are achieved through the crucial practice of critical thinking and earnest self-analysis. And no where, if sincerely met with daily conviction, can both be better employed than in the practice of blogging.
And so, I firmly believe that all teachers should be bloggers. Because if Descartes is wrong, then the thrust of our identity is determined not by our inalienable and essential state of being but by the differences in idea and sense that we demonstrate through our interactions with others.
And teachers, perhaps more than anything else, are the medium -- or have the potential to be the medium -- through which students learn about all that which is 'other'.

This is the post I wish I had thought to write... in fact, I'm thinking you've inspired me to toss in my own bit here sometime soon. Because really- it IS hard to explain life behind the wheel of your own personal blog. It is almost one of those things that you just have to do to get.ReplyDelete
Well- this comes as close to breaking through that barrier as anything I've read. This quote is one that now resides in my stickies file:
"...to blog is to teach yourself what you think."
That's golden. I feel this way because this might be the simplest way to describe blogging (or rather, owning, writing and managing your own blog and your own voice within) as one of the most constructivist types of communication in existence.
Thanks for this one.
Thanks from a teacher who has always felt they did not have much to blog about. I have been trying to be more of an active participant by offering comments, but perhaps I should just write.ReplyDelete
I loved "We live in a culture that tells us that you learn from your mistakes, yet which continually punishes and shuns those who make mistakes. It is teachers who have the power to change this."
Great fodder for professional debates over the unintended message that grading policies can send. I look forward to using this quote when I get back in the classroom.
"Because to blog is to teach yourself what you think" is very powerful and very true. Thank you for posting this.ReplyDelete
Thank you for this! I will certainly link to this posting from my blog, to help my readers (many South African teachers) appreciate the value of blogging. I love the perspective you give!ReplyDelete
This is an excellent post. I know I've fallen victim to that same misconception about not having anything important enough to say. I've passed on this link to the faculty at my campus, as many of them wonder about the need or use of blogging, too.ReplyDelete
To blog is to teach yourself what you think? Far-fetched I'd say. To blog is to put your thoughts black on white. But I completely agree that everybody has something to offer in their blog. Let's blog then!ReplyDelete
Nice job, this is the best endorsement for educator blogging that I have seen in some time! Does it not apply to why students should blog too?ReplyDelete
As a teacher who has faced some teasing from other staff members for blogging and enjoying it, THANK YOU!ReplyDelete
"And so, we should teach this new generation to move beyond embarrassment and fear." Thank you for this post. I will use it with my students who are very reluctant to start writing publicly - they would rather just do the old-fashioned 'privately writing a piece of paper only to the teacher' -style and hide their work from their peers, or anyone else.ReplyDelete
Personally, I enjoyed reading this very much, too! Gives me new reasons and energy to keep blogging.
I concur...I recently had a similar sort of epiphany while watching "Julie and Julia" for the second time. I went straight home and wrote a post on my professional blog called Bloggers are Writers for Real. I feel like the cognitive benefits of me writing about my reading, thinking, and teaching have helped me in the classroom AND help my students connect with me on another level.ReplyDelete
Thank you for your wonderfully reflective and engaging post.
This piece made me realize that I really do like you:).ReplyDelete
Thanks for posting this! I just started a blogging project with my students, and, like some of them, I have been feeling nervous about putting myself out there. Your thoughts have given me the confidence to go forward. I can't wait to share this with the kids!ReplyDelete
Thank you for sharing this information..ReplyDelete

Thanks for some very insightful remarks on blogging. I truly appreciate your candid and gut-honest approach about how our blogs can teach us what we think as well as reveal some truths to us about the kind of person we are.ReplyDelete
I will also be quoting you on this topic.
Way to give me no excuse to skip out my blogging right when I needed it. Thank you!ReplyDelete
I just found this blog tonight, exhausted from the day, and still doing 'stuff' for my kids and class tomorrow...but this space, your words, feels like 'coming home'. Your posting about why teachers blog is dead on. I started because I felt I could no longer ignore the nagging sense that I must contribute! So as I move technophobes to technophiles in my little sandbox of the educational world, and as I write my own blog, I am enriched by yours. Thank you.ReplyDelete

I think this fantastic. the teachers get a voice other than in the class room,it gives them the confidence that they need to blossom and bloom.it would be interesting to draw the statistics as to how many teachers can actually speak publicly.blogging will give them the confidence and chance to speak to themselves and others.
Parents who do have Internet access, a teacher with a blog becomes a more effective communicator. The purpose of the slide show is not to say that teachers shouldn't make phone calls home, it is about showing teachers that having a blog does have benefits. Creating more ways for teachers and parents to communicate is a good thing.ReplyDelete

I think teacher blogging is great, too...just got started with it in '09 and (I hope) there's no turning back. Here's my "version" of the plug for blogging:ReplyDelete
You are exactly right...hit this one square on! I have just started a blog of my own... Thing is..I will be very disheartened if I get zero readers! This is the thing about blogging...one does it in order to have a voice that is heard!ReplyDelete
"To blog is to teach yourself what you think" OR what you think you think, or thought, might be a better description of a blog. That's why I blog. I've noticed some communicators and teachers commenting here said they were afraid to put themselves out there into the blogosphere.ReplyDelete
Having been a pupil for a long time, I can honestly say I've seen arguments/near brawls break out in the college classroom over sociology issues. If this is the case for some teachers because they are afraid of what somebody might think about what they wrote or thought, they must get over this fear. Blogging is about NOW. It is still cool to blog and will continue to be cool. You cannot be afraid to get "beat up" because somebody didn't like what you wrote.
Thank You for providing the link to this blog via your DIGITAL NATION/You Tube Video. That's how I arrived at your blog. Now, I like your blog so much I'm adding it to my blogroll. This is what blogging is all about. You do what you want on your blog. You say what you want to say on your blog. Then you press publish and send it and share it out into the world.
Keep up the good blogging work, keep sharing and don't let the bullies scare you.
I'd like to share this.ReplyDelete
I finally got a class of students to start blogging for the same reasons you mentioned : to give themselves clarity in thought and feelings, to learn as one, to make mistakes in a safe, supportive environment. I think they will be happy to read this that even Western teachers have fears about putting themselves out there and stress over "not knowing what to write". Thanks to everyone for doing what you do which ends up an evidence for faith for others.ReplyDelete
If you happen to visit our blog I hope you can leave a line and encourage these students. :) Thanks for the post and the comments.
Thank you for sharing. I'll start a blogging experiment in class.ReplyDelete
"Because to blog is to teach yourself what you think" - well said.ReplyDelete

As a teacher who has just entered the blogospere with the intent of "learning more to teach more" about the practical uses of technology in the classroom, I have been uncertain about what the purpose really is of the whole blog thing. I seem to intrinsically understand that to move forward as a educator at this point in time is to learn how to use more than just email and power point, but I still trying to get a hold of what that means... You provided a lot of clarity for me with your post, and as other commentators have already stated, it's all summed with "to blog is to teach yourself what you think"ReplyDelete
I just started my own blog, mostly out of necessity and curiosity as to what I have been missing by staying within the four walls of my own building (district?)Blogging is difficult, but I find myself thinking beyond what I see, to what can I do to change what I see. Technology is not my strength but I am willing to try whatever it takes.ReplyDelete
I recently started my own blog, and LOVE this post as rationalization for blogging. Blogging is for me. If anyone chooses to toss in their two cents via comments, great... but I love how you explain it as "teaching yourself what you think." My blog probably isn't interesting to most people, but it teaches me what I think, and helps me reflect on that in order to become better at what I do!ReplyDelete
Thanks for this!
Thank you very much. After reading your post, I bravely decided I will blog. Thanks againReplyDelete
Very well said. Thank you for helping me to understand why I blog, and for hopefully giving a lot of teachers out there the very best reasons to blog.ReplyDelete
Great stuff,
- Jason
Please have your young teacher in Baltimore consider this the next time he feels he brings nothing to the discussion; what would he say to any student in his class who felt the same way?ReplyDelete
Would he agree, that indeed, the young child most likely had nothing to offer?
Of course not.
Love this posting. I blog because I enjoy blogging. I don't know how my writing will contribute to the community. It's a way for me to jot down and document my evolving thinking. Your post encouraged me, that I'm on the right track!ReplyDelete
I felt like you were talking to me personally. Thank you for your encouragement and rationale.ReplyDelete
What's cool about Blogs is that they give a place for what we used to call "reflection." And that was a radical idea too.ReplyDelete
I blog totally for my own reflection. I manage one to maintain contact with my former students and one to reflect on the complexities of being a driven urban educator and a passionate parent of 3 of my own children. I agree that the purpose of this format is reflection and even analysis of my own thinking. I don't particularly care if anyone reads my personal blog (except maybe my children and grandchildren on day), but it's there for those who need a person with which to identify...or not.ReplyDelete
Thanks a lot. You do inspire me to blog. I've never seriously blogged in English. It isn't because I don't want to, but I dare not to. You may be surprised if you know that I'm teaching English as a foreign language for pre-university students...(Y-Y)ReplyDelete
Is blogging that much different from journaling? Perhaps the more intimate thoughts might be held back, and there may be a more boundaries according to a particular focus, but otherwise....what's the difference?ReplyDelete
It's public with the world.
One does make a difference. Together we can make a different world. Our failings or our successes just reinforce thre fact that we need the others to give our lives meaning. Thank you for taking the courageous step of being yourself. Your blog post has succeeded in encouraging me to write a few more lines...ReplyDelete
- AnonymousMarch 31, 2011 at 3:26 PM
I enjoyed reading this post. I don't feel confident about expressing my inner thoughts or feelings-- it is like exposing yourself to the world-- what if I post something absurd...keeping a journal is private and more me if I want to indulge in reflective writing.ReplyDelete
Blogging requires a lot of confidence, effort and time. But this post was very encouraging.
I'm glad I found this site. I have read your article and found it to be very useful especially for people who are not sure of which path to take. In life, we need to constantly be motivated. We have to motivate ourselves as well as others to keep us from feeling worthless.ReplyDelete
In this world there are so many things to think about and sometimes stress gets in the way and we end up losing faith in ourselves. But if you will follow the rules of motivation, it will surely be your number one best friend for it will guide you along the way.
I hope to read some more of your tips and thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Thanks for posting this! I just started a blogging project with my students, and, like some of them, I have been feeling nervous about putting myself out there. Your thoughts have given me the confidence to go forward. I can't wait to share this with the kids!ReplyDelete

Wow. Excellent. Thanks for writing this. I am a teacher for just over 20 years of both Japanese (back in Australia) and an EFL teacher here in Japan. I have only just started my own blog regarding my teaching journey. I thought that maybe it would not really mean much to anyone. Yet, having read this I have been convinced to continue blogging.ReplyDelete
Thank you.
Cheers from Japan!

Wow, there's really so much to learn out there and one can get overwhelmed but when you know where to focus, it's really all worth your time and these blog designs are solid. Enjoyed your post! thanks for sharing..ReplyDelete
Initially, I started a blog thinking I might just share some classroom management ideas but as I began writing, I began to discover the joy of expressing myself. Now I've begun to read posts by other authors which is expanding my thinking even further.ReplyDelete

I found this post a little while back, and as I continue my efforts to contribute to the blogging universe, I realize that I'm learning more about myself than creating a learning space for others. Brilliant!

The Beaches (or "The Beach") is a neighbourhood located in the east of "Old" Toronto City. The Beaches is bounded by Victoria Park Avenue to the east, Lake Ontario to the south, Woodbine Avenue to the west and Kingston Road to the north.
The area features four different beaches; Scarborough, Kew, Balmy and Woodbine. Queen Street East's commercial district runs through the heart of The Beaches. The area consists of a large number of specialty stores and the streets are mainly lined with semi-detached Victorian, Edwardian and contemporary homes. There are also a few low-rise apartment buildings and row houses. The Beach itself is a continuous long stretch of sandy shoreline bounded by Woodbine Park to the west and the R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant to the east. The boardwalk that runs along The Beach is also a popular place for cyclists, joggers and dog walkers. The Beaches is one of Toronto's great neighbourhoods for raising a family with a good variety of parks and schools.

Among the bits of information dropped during last week's PlayStation 4 announcement was this from PS4 lead architect Mark Cerny, as he discussed the system's enhanced social features:
"[With the] PlayStation 4 we are transitioning to a friends network based on real world friends. We'll keep around the alias and icon used in today's multiplayer matches. These are great to have when anonymity is important. But most of the new social dimension to PS4 will be interacting with friends using real names and profile pictures most likely seeded from your existing social network."
Some crucial-sounding words in there: "Alias." "Real names." "Profile pictures." "Anonymity." But what exactly does all that mean? Like so many other things introduced at the PS4 event, it's not entirely clear.
Since its inception, the PlayStation Network has for the most part been a gateway to buying content and a loose way to connect with your friends to play games. But Sony appears set to turn their service into much more of a "proper" social network. And parts of that social network are going to involve your real name.
Let's scrounge for crumbs of information and see if we can't get a sense of what Cerny is saying, as well as what he's purposefully leaving unsaid.
1. "We are transitioning to a friends network based on real world friends."
Vague language, but he's really just talking about emulating Facebook. When Sony launched PSN, Facebook wasn't nearly the juggernaut it is today, and it stands to reason that Sony (and likely Microsoft) will be taking cues from Facebook when designing their consoles' new social environments. From the look we got at the PSN's new social profile page, it appears as though your friends list will made up of "real" people, by which Cerny just means that you'll actually see the name behind the alias.
I actually like that, as a broad idea—I've found that on both PSN and Xbox Live, I've lost track of who a lot of my "friends" are. Often on my Xbox, I'll see pop-up notifications that "Player X has come online," but it'll feel like I've never even seen that gamertag before. Have I simply forgotten? Or did the person change their tag? It's difficult to tell who they are. It'd be nice to simply see peoples' names.
I've found that on both PSN and Xbox Live, I've lost track of who a lot of my "friends" are.
2. "We'll keep around the alias and icon used in today's multiplayer matches. These are great to have when anonymity is important."
This bit is the escape hatch Sony has left, should the whole real names idea fall flat. An assurance that feels designed, more or less, to circumvent the sort of user-outrage that rained down on World of Warcraft- and StarCraft-makers Blizzard when they announced their Real ID program back in 2010. Blizzard's thinking was that by forcing users to post in the Blizzard forums under their real names, it would cut down on jerks and trolls. But the community quickly pointed out a lot of unforeseen downsides that Real ID would have, in particular that it would make women much more visible than they had been and therefore even easier targets for creeping and forum stalking.
Following an overwhelmingly negative reaction from almost every corner of their fanbase, Blizzard scrapped the Real ID system. Surely Sony was paying attention to that debacle, and will offer some sort of alias-based, anonymous online existence for those who want it. The question that remains is: How will that work, and will there be aspects of the PS4 that can only be used under your real name?
This image from the PS4 conference gives a sense of what a player's profile page will look like:
It goes along with the final part of what Cerny had to say:
3. "Most of the new social dimension to PS4 will be interacting with friends using real names and profile pictures most likely seeded from your existing social network."
When Cerny says, "Your existing social network," he probably means "Facebook." That dovetails with later remarks from Gaikai president David Perry, who said outright that the new PSN will be integrated with social networks, including Facebook and Ustream.
And, like Facebook, it sounds like they're going to connect all of that to your real name and profile picture. Maybe you'll also be able to import your Facebook friends list into your PS4, or go through some PSN app to invite your friends to play with you via Facebook. Or other such cross-platform stuff.
When he plays Call of Duty multiplayer, it's likely that Henry can set things so that his foes only see DayZ100 headshotting them.
The image of Henry Bayle's profile page lines up with that. Note how this (handsome!) Bayle chap has got an icon and an alias underneath his real name. When he plays Call of Duty multiplayer, it's likely that Henry can set things so that his foes only see DayZ100 headshotting them. (Also: Nice DayZ reference, Sony. Very "now.") It seems probable that he will be able to set his profile so that no one can see his real name unless he wants them to, so even if someone wanted to track him down after a match, they couldn't.
But beneath that, note that it says "Henry Bayle shared a video from KNACK." It does not say "DayZ100 shared a video from KNACK." That makes me think that the extra-game social functions of the new PSN will require you to do things under your actual name, and not under a pseudonym. All of the slick video sharing, streaming, spectating and game-visiting that Perry described will likely be tied to that social network, and therefore users' actual names.
Stepping back and just looking at the whole page, I'm struck by how much closer it is to a Facebook page than a current PSN ID page. In fact, there kind of… isn't even a PSN "home" or "profile" page at the moment—it's just a list of my friends, with the option to send them messages or compare trophies. Like I mentioned earlier, scrolling through my friends' PSN IDs is disorienting—I have no idea who half of them are, even though they're likely people I know and added at some point. (It doesn't help that I do almost all of my multiplayer gaming on PC and 360, so my PSN list is sorely underused.)
It's worth noting that any of this stuff could change between now and the system's fall launch. Looking over what we saw at the PS4 conference, several big questions remain:
What exactly will the PS4's privacy settings entail? Which actions will be tied to your real name, and which will be anonymous? Will it be possible to set up a PSN account under a made-up name with a fake profile, and continue to operate in complete anonymity? Those questions all remain unanswered, and will likely be shrouded for a good while longer.
I'm curious to know what you think. So I made a poll.
Would you welcome a shift to a real-name social network, or are you happy with how the PSN works now? If you played multiplayer games under your actual name, would it impact how you act towards others? What would Sony's social network need to offer for you to carve out a space for it in your digital life?

The Power of Cross-Training
Cross-training refers to a combination of different methods of exercise. Specifically, cross-training refers to the combination of strength training and cardiovascular training in your overall exercise program. Whether you're a 14-year-old just starting out on your first fitness program, or whether you're a 74-year-old who hasn't exercised in more than 40 years, cross-training will provide optimal results for the time and effort you spend on exercise.
In cross-training, it's not that you're doing aerobic and strength-training activities simultaneously. Rather, you're incorporating both methods in your weekly exercise regime. One week you might do three sessions of strength training and two sessions of cardiovascular activity. The next week you could do three sessions of aerobic exercise and two sessions of strength training. The result is that, overall, approximately half of your exercise time is devoted to each of these two methods.
The remarkable outcome of combining two distinctly different training modes is that both sets of results are enhanced.1,2Doing cardiovascular exercise on alternate days makes you stronger. In other words, your muscular strength and size are greater than they would be if strength training were your only form of exercise. Correspondingly, doing strength training on alternate days provides you with heightened cardiovascular gains. Specifically, your stroke volume (the amount of blood pumped on each contraction of your heart muscle) and vital capacity (the amount of air you can take in on each breath) are greater than the results you would have obtained by only doing aerobic exercise.
The benefits of cross-training are automatic. There's nothing you need to do intentionally to achieve these gains, other than engaging in your cross-training program five days a week. When you train your heart and lungs by doing cardiovascular (really, cardiorespiratory) exercise, your skeletal muscles automatically participate in your walking, running, biking, or swimming activity. When you do strength training, exercising your chest, back, shoulders, arms, and legs (on different split-training days, of course), your heart and lungs automatically participate, pumping the extra blood and breathing in the extra oxygen required for any vigorous physical activity.
The synergy created by the cross-training format potentiates the results obtained from each method.3 The improved performance of your heart and lungs, derived from aerobic training, enables greater strength training gains. A stronger musculoskeletal system, derived from training with weights, causes your heart and lungs to become more efficient to meet new demands. A positive feedback loop is established from which you obtain improved health and enhanced wellness and well-being.
The best time to begin your new cross-training program is today. Start slowly, increase duration and intensity gradually, and evaluate your gains at 6- and 12-week intervals. Your chiropractor is experienced in exercise rehabilitation and will help you design a cross-training program that works for you.

Cross-training places numerous physiological demands on your cardiorespiratory and musculoskeletal systems, as well as on your digestive, hormonal, and immune systems. These demands are necessary for your ongoing health and well-being, following both the principle of "use it or lose it" and Wolff's Law (bone remodels along lines of physiological stress).
But in order to maximize our cross-training gains, we want to make sure that our body's underlying structure is intact. Our various physiological systems must be able to communicate with each other efficiently, and each system must be able to receive and transmit information to the master system, the nerve system. Regular chiropractic care helps ensure these necessary interactions are taking place, consistently and over time. By detecting and correcting spinal misalignments and by removing nerve interference, regular chiropractic care helps optimize all physiological functioning and helps you get the most out of your cross-training activities.

The scandals swirling around Herman Cain today — that two women accused him of sexual harassment in the '90s, and his campaign may be in violation of federal campaign and tax laws — will be fatal to his presidential ambitions. It's over folks.
There were reasons to believe that conservatives would stand behind their man — and if he comes up with a good story, they still might.
1) They liked Cain personally, and more than that they liked the idea of Herman Cain. Here was a successful-in-the-market black entrepreneur who was becoming the favorite of Tea Party Republicans. Cain's very person seemed to embody the success of a conservative ideology, and at the same time his popularity flattered conservatives. He was a walking refutation of liberal claims that conservative Republicans are racists.
2) Conservatives, whatever they said about Bill Clinton, are primed to believe that many sexual harassment lawsuits are monetary shakedowns by aggrieved employees. All that Cain's team had to do was say affirmatively that nothing inappropriate happened and imply strongly that these lawsuits were settled for financial and public-relations reasons.
3) It is getting so late in the primary season, it seems like there was no time left to get behind a conservative alternative to Mitt Romney. Texas Gov. Rick Perry has seen his support base completely erode, and Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Michele Bachmann are in no better position to replace him as the base's standard-bearer.
And conservatives did line up to defend Cain last night when the story broke. Ann Coulter and Washington Examiner lined up to compare this report to attacks on Clarence Thomas.
But this rally isn't going to last. Cain was already a long-shot. Campaign donors will not answer calls for a besieged long-shot.
And conservative groups are now waiting for an answer from Cain and his campaign, and they don't like how long it is taking. By this morning Joseph Lawler of The American Spectator was telling readers that the story is legitimately of public interest. Concerned Women for America, a socially conservative group, was demanding answers as well.
But the whole reaction of the Cain campaign has got to be disconcerting to conservatives hoping to find someone to challenge Barack Obama in a tough 2012 campaign. The Cain campaign has been slow and disorganized in its attempt to quash this scandal, all while it is supposed to have known this story was coming for ten days. This is not the kind of performance GOP voters are going to demand of their 2012 candidate.
The response of Cain's people confirmed everyone's fears that this insurgent candidate has no real organization, and no ability to rapidly respond to the media, much less drive the narrative of a wild campaign.
But the mere fact of this scandal ruins the romantic image voters were developing of Cain, the non-politician. The Herman Cain brand that people loved was utterly plainspoken and direct. The Herman Cain of today is "sighing" at Politico's reporters, and refusing to answer questions about this story at AEI. The old Herman Cain was beating Mitt Romney. This new one can't beat anyone.
It's over.
