It was unanimous: All eight tasters gave thumbs-ups to a new flavor of the cookie-confection called Snappers, from Edward Marc Chocolatiers. The family-owned company has added milk chocolate and peanut butter to pretzels for a snack that is definitely – as the packaging proclaims – "crunchy and salty and sweet." Snappers are also sold in three other flavors – Original Pretzel, Peanut Pretzel and Dark Chocolate-Sea Salt-Caramel. They're $5 for 6-ounce bag, $10 for 24-ounce bag at Costco and "select retailers."

Football bad boy Nile Ranger has been filmed punching a woman in the face before smashing down a door outside his penthouse flat.
The shocking CCTV footage, passed to the Sunday Mirror, shows the former Newcastle United ace attacking a mystery brunette as he returns home with her after a night out.
Swindon Town forward Ranger, 23, became angry when he apparently lost his electronic key fob and could not get in to his luxury home.
The girl tries to calm the 6ft 2in star down, but he reacts by slapping her twice with his right hand as she tries to defend herself.
He then punches her with his left, causing her to fall against the wall. Ranger then breaks in to the apartment block by taking a run up and kicking the door in.
We handed the footage to Wiltshire Police and yesterday morning three panda cars arrived at his Swindon flat. But there was no sign of the £5,000-a-week star, who was injured and out of his League One side's trip to Notts County.
Officers are due to quiz him over the next few days.
They have also urged the woman in the video to get in touch.
The film was handed over by a person who saw the footage when workers arrived to fix the door, which was damaged to the tune of £2,000.
Our source said: "The building has a secure entrance system so all the residents have a little plastic tag they use to get through all of the doors, including the doors from the car park into the lift area.
"It's pretty clear from the footage he's forgotten his fob or hasn't got it to hand so he's decided to try to force his way through the door. We're talking about a seriously sturdy, couple-of-inches thick secure door with a glass panel that has wire inside to strengthen it.
"He's completely destroyed the door, which is embedded into a concrete wall."
Staff from a property maintenance firm also alerted police to the damage, caused at about 4am on Sunday, April 13.
A Wiltshire Police spokesman said: "The company has supplied the police with a copy of CCTV of the incident, which shows a man kicking and smashing the door and lift, and at one point punching a female who was with him.
"Police have been making inquiries to locate the suspect.
"As a result a man, aged 23, of Gordon Gardens, Swindon, will be contacted via his solicitor for interview by appointment in connection with the criminal damage and assault."
It is believed Ranger may have been out celebrating after his side beat Brentford 1-0 at home the previous day.
He signed to Swindon after leaving Newcastle last summer. His past controversies include posing with a replica handgun in a photo in 2011 and being fined by the FA for making homophobic comments on Twitter.

Wizards Notebook
Washington Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld says Gilbert Arenas likely will stay with team
Friday, February 19, 2010
After a six-day trade flurry that detonated an underachieving roster, the Washington Wizards are forced to look ahead to a future that no longer includes Antawn Jamison, Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood, core pieces of a former playoff team. But while the Wizards (18-33) finish this season with leftovers, spare parts and throwaways, team President Ernie Grunfeld intimated on Thursday that the rebuilding process could very well include at least one familiar face -- Gilbert Arenas.
Arenas has been suspended for the remainder of the season after bringing guns to the locker room in December during a dispute with Javaris Crittenton. Arenas will be sentenced on March 26 for a felony gun possession charge, but he is still under contract for the next four years at $80 million. Grunfeld said the most likely option for the Wizards is not a trade, a buyout or contract termination but rather Arenas's return.
"Gilbert is still one of the top players in this league. He's under contract and he's going to be with us," Grunfeld said. "He's part of this organization. If he wants to play, this is the place where he's going to play.
"Gilbert's a basketball player. That's what he likes to do, that's his life and obviously this is a tough situation for him. It's a tough situation for everybody and I think we all feel for him because he loves to play the game so much and this is something that he really misses. Nobody wants to see anybody go through something like this, but during the summertime we're going to sit and I know he's going to work very hard to be the best player he can possibly be."
The Wizards have stopped promoting Arenas or selling his jersey or merchandise with his image, and Arenas has been telling those close to him that he no longer wants to play for Grunfeld.
When asked about his relationship with Arenas, Grunfeld said, tersely, "It's fine."
McGuire to Sacramento
The Wizards traded Dominic McGuire and about $300,000 to the Sacramento Kings for a 2010 second-round pick on Thursday. Grunfeld referred to the trade as a "minor" deal, but it had major financial implications.
Entering the day, the Wizards were about $500,000 above the luxury-tax penalty, but by moving McGuire's $825,000 contract to the Kings, they moved under the tax line -- and made another $4 million. The windfall will come in the form of a dispersal check given to teams that don't pay the luxury tax from the pool of money collected from teams that pay the penalty.
After these three trades, the Wizards have four picks -- two in the first round and two in the second round -- in this summer's NBA draft.
James stays put
The Wizards were involved in trade discussions with the Miami Heat and Utah Jazz for a deal that would have, in part, sent Carlos Boozer and Mike James to the Heat. After the deal fell through, James was given permission to go home to Houston while he considers a buyout agreement with the Wizards before March 1, which would allow him to join a roster in time for the playoffs.
James, 34, said after practice Thursday that he was disappointed that he wasn't moved in one of the earlier trades with Dallas or Cleveland, which was also considered.
"I missed the car ride, I missed the bus and I missed the plane," James said before talks with the Heat collapsed. "Now it's a ship going out at about 2:45, but I'm on the other side of town and I only got a couple of minutes to make it, so it don't look good for me right now."
Summer spending
By shedding more than $28 million from the 2010-11 payroll, the Wizards are in position to offer a free agent a maximum contract. But Grunfeld warned fans not to get their hopes up about the team signing LeBron James, Dwyane Wade or Chris Bosh this summer.
"We'll just have to wait and see," Grunfeld said. "Normally, there aren't that many max players out there. How many of these players are going to move teams anyway? Normally very few of them move. . . . There might be some that do move, but we'll have to wait and see how free agency goes."
Newly acquired players Al Thornton and Zydrunas Ilgauskas are not expected to play against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. Ilgauskas's agent, Herb Rudoy, said Thursday that he planned on negotiating a buyout for his client, who has spent his entire career with Cleveland.

crochet / holiday
i finished this scarf just in time for spring! made with the green pigeon roof studios yarn i bought recently and this pattern. the top one is also going to be a scarf i think. i'm following a shawl pattern from a japanese craft book via the diagrams! i looked up the symbols as i went along. now that i know what the lines mean, it seems a far more logical/universal way to have a pattern written.
we are heading north for a family holiday tonight~ i'm really looking forward to the break. hope you have a fun couple of weeks :)

I counsel in Longmont, Colorado and we host marriage intensives in the nearby Rocky Mountains
We have undergone extensive restoration from infidelity in our own marriage. Having wrestled through the question of divorce, we know the fruits of battling through hard times. Our intimacy with one another, and our intimacy with God, has increased as a result of enduring this painful process.
"Having gone through our own struggles, we are aware of the level of pain you may be experiencing. It is our desire to share with you our story, what God has taught us, and to pass on His hope for your marriage."
We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves, but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us.

Sonnets to Orpheus
How life and death transform each other
By Steven Martinovich
Rainer Maria Rilke's Sonnets to Orpheus was one of those unintended masterpieces that came out of nowhere and surprised even the artist. Living in Switzerland since mid-1921 Rilke had been struggling to complete another of his great works, Duino Elegies, one that had been begun nearly a decade earlier. It was the death of his daughter's childhood friend that threw the poet the following year into a tempest of inspiration. In a month he described as an "indescribable storm, a hurricane in my spirit" he completed the Elegies and produced the Sonnets.
The latest translation of Rilke's Sonnets to Orpheus from his native German comes courtesy of Rice University English professor Edward Snow. With six Rilke translations under his belt, Snow may be the finest living English translator of the poet's work. His Elegies translation have justifiably pronounced "radiant" and a "worthy poetic" achievement and with Sonnets Snow's reputation as Rilke's foremost English translator should be permanently cemented.
Orpheus was the greatest musician and poet of Greek myth, making music with his lyre so beautiful that even inanimate objects would be enchanted. When his wife Eurydice was killed he traveled to Hades in an effort to bring her back. Thanks to the power of his music he was allowed to retrieve her but was told he was not to look backwards during the journey to the upper world. Unfortunately Orpheus does so and Eurydice was once again lost to him.
Like many poets before him, Rilke used the myth of Orpheus to explore death, a constantly changing world and the human condition. For Rilke, humanity simultaneously was a part of and transcended the Earth and that the entire range of human existence, whether pain or pleasure, life or death, spoke to our connection with what he referred to as the Whole. They are inextricably tied to each other. As Snow points out in his introduction to the work, "praise and lament (and by extension love and parting, desire and loss, life and death) are not in opposition but internal to one another, the latter not the negation of the former but in its matrix, the space in which it intensifies."
As skilled as Rilke was in exploring those grand metamorphosing experiences of humanity, Snow's translation shows he was also able to touch on those small intimacies of our lives. Rilke demonstrates that in the first half of Sonnet II.20:
Although Snow would argue otherwise, the Sonnets are not reader-friendly. Unlike those quoted above, much of Rilke's stanzas are thickets of symbolism. A reader could quite easily be led astray by some of the sonnets, including one notable example where a meaning changes when one learns that it is a dog being addressed, not the reader or some other third party.
Snow's translation unveils the transcendent beauty of Rilke's final masterpiece, a work carried out so skillfully that it could easily stand as a work of art on its own. Although Sonnets to Orpheus can be a difficult work for the reader to interpret, thanks largely to Rilke's habit of often making who is being addressed and who is doing the addressing a matter of conjecture, Snow has still managed to make the work largely accessible. This new translation, by which all others will surely be judged, not only celebrates the original vision of Rilke but the skill of Snow in capturing it.

Flat feet is a condition in which your foot has little to no natural arch. This may be because arches never formed in childhood, or it could be due to illness or injury. Either way, it's important to wear supportive athletic shoes while playing tennis or for any other activity.
Flat Feet Supporters
Select tennis shoes and cross-trainers that support side-to-side movements to protect against injury, says Stephen Pribut, DPM, president of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine. When you lack an arch, it's the side motion -- especially common in tennis -- where you can get injured if you're wearing improper footwear. And since, according to the Sneaker Report, tennis players are often overpronators -- a condition where your foot rolls inward after landing -- look for tennis shoes with extras like side gel cushioning and heel supports that provide impact protection. Ask a knowledgeable salesperson to help you find a shoe that has this kind of support. When trying out shoes, perform the support test: Take the shoe and place the toe on the floor with the heel facing the ceiling. Push down on the heel, and if the shoe bends in the middle, it's not supportive enough.

I've had a diversified, and somewhat peripatetic life, lived on three continents, spanning over seven decades, four careers, two wives, three children, and four granddaughters.
I was raised in Seattle, Washington, the eldest of three sons of a strict father and a loving mother. I drove an old jalopy and got a tattoo when I was seventeen (I subsequently had it removed). I graduated from the University of Nebraska, have a Masters Degree from the University of Wisconsin and have done doctoral work at the University of Southern California where I reached the ABD level.
I was an army officer for twenty-five years, two of which were spent in combat in Vietnam, but the best three were in Germany. This career took me all over the world and, of course, the US. At about the time I was preparing to retire, I met and married Elaine Head, a Canadian and have made my home in Canada ever since. My second career, which spanned almost twenty years, was management consulting. The money was good, but the demands were intense and living out of a suitcase while criss-crossing the country on a weekly basis was not fun. So I mothballed my suits, bought a sailboat and started teaching sailing. This paid next to nothing, but was fun and provided an opportunity to meet lots of great people. Finally I hatched my current career as a writer. This also pays next to nothing so far but is immensely satisfying. I'm also involved in my community by serving in a volunteer capacity on boards and councils.
My interest in writing stems in part from my lifelong love of books and reading but is also attributable in large measure to several courses I took all those many years ago as an undergraduate. Two courses in American Literature introduced me to Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Steinbeck, Michener, Wolf and others and a course on Creative Writing triggered a love of metaphors, similes and lyrical prose.
Although my childhood and army career shaped a set of conservative values and attitudes, over the long arc of my life I have evolved into a much more socially conscious, and I hope sensitive, person. I think this is reflected in the three books I have written, all of which address contemporary social problems.
People have asked why, after collaborating on a non-fiction book with Elaine, I turned to fiction. The main reason is because I wanted to expose the ugliness of child trafficking in Southeast Asia and felt that a compelling story might reach a wider audience than a non-fiction piece. After all, Albert Camus is credited with saying,"fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth."

Fundamentalism and Intolerance
Today I stumbled upon Andrew Himes, as well a relative of his, Stephen Lamb. The reason I found them of interest is that both are descendants of fundamentalist power-house John R. Rice, whose publication The Sword of the Lord, was a major voice for fundamentalist intolerance in the United States. To get the relationships clear: Stephen is the great-grandson of Rice, Himes is the grandson of Rice, and uncle to Lamb.)
Above Himes talks about how black children were treated in his school in Tennessee. It is god-awful to listen to the description and I fear, had I been there, that I would have broken down emotionally as he did. It is shameful. But this is par for the course in the fundamentalist South.
Many people simply don't understand the origins of the "Christian school" movement in America. They think the inspiration was godlessness in government schools. Such secularism was a factor, but it was a minor factor. The real inspiration for the Christian schools movement in the United States was racism. Most these schools cropped up in the American South as a means to avoid having to send white children to school where black children would be allowed to attend.
I was in a fundamentalist Baptist high school. And the principal of the school was one of the main, behind-the-scenes figures in the birth of the Religious Right. He was a major force pushing fundamentalist churches to start their own schools. I sat in classes that he taught and listened to him spout racist garbage about why whites and blacks could not attend school together. His argument was that only white people were capable of critical thinking (odd from a fundamentalist) and that blacks could only learn by rote memorization. Since the two races have to be taught so differently they shouldn't be schooled together. And, our high school followed that policy. No black students were allowed in the high school while I was there.
Every day we were required to attend a chapel period with a different individual preaching. This was rather extensive brain-washing actually. Consider that in addition to five daily sermons we also had to attend church on Wednesday night, Sunday morning, and Sunday night. That is 8 sermons per week. On top of that Friday nights were reserved to attend "youth" meetings at church and Saturdays were given over to door-to-door proselytizing. The idea was to create a "hot house" that would insulate us from any ideas contrary to the authoritarian world-view of fundamentalism.
It didn't work for me. Nor did it work for Himes and Lamb. The reason I found their comments so interesting is because John R. Rice was a regular preacher during high school chapels and then again when I was in college at a fundamentalist seminary. Lamb says his great-grandfather died one month before he was born. So, unlike him, I actually met his great-grandfather on several occasions.
One of the odd rituals in fundamentalist circles was to have these "great preachers" actually sign the inside of your Bible, as if they were the true authors. In many ways there are the true authors since they are the ones who tell the faithful what the Bible "really" means. And their interpretations can be unique.
Unfortunately, more often than not, fundamentalism has been consistently on the wrong side of morality when it comes to issues of individual justice and human rights. Contrary to revisionist history fundamentalists were primarily defending slavery while Abolitionists were more likely to be Quakers or even deists. The largest fundamentalist sect in existence today, the Southern Baptists, is the result of a split with northern Baptists over the issue of slavery. Fundamentalists helped fuel the Ku Klux Klan, with many a Klan "chaplain" being a local fundamentalist minister.
When it came to woman's suffrage fundamentalists tended to be against the idea of women voting or even having equal rights. Women were seen as the extension of their husbands, and under the control of their husbands, the way "God intended." Some fundamentalist sects, mainly Pentecostals, would allow women to preach, but they were still considered subservient to their husbands.
When the civil rights movement advocated for the equal rights of African Americans, fundamentalists routinely opposed the idea. Individuals like Jerry Falwell, who preached the funeral sermon for Rice, went so far as to say that the idea of equal rights was communist in nature.
Of course, today's great struggle for the extension of rights and liberty is the battle over the legal status of gay and lesbian Americans. And, keeping with their previous stands, American fundamentalists are once again on the wrong side of the issue. But this is the nature of fundamentalism, being it Christian, Muslim or whatever. I dare say there are even libertarian fundamentalists who are just as intolerant, narrow-minded, and blinded to facts contrary to their own conclusions.
One simply can not understand the course and future of American politics without understanding fundamentalism. So I look forward to reading a new book by Himes, The Sword of the Lord: The Roots of Fundamentalism in an American Family, which is the account of John R. Rice and his relatives.
Below is another video story by Himes in which he talks about the day a black man, with three white friends, came to church. It illustrates the bigotry and intolerance that I believe is inherently a part of fundamentalism.

On the way back from Sri Lanka, my husband, daughter and I stopped in Singapore. We stayed at the luxurious Swissotel at Clarke Quay where my daughter loved the big bed, the free cow soft toy and kids toiletry pack. We all had great fun at the water slides on the roof too.
We also enjoyed exploring more of the Clarke Quay area. The art gallery with the colourful shutters, the street art and the view of Marina Bay Sands. Clarke Quay at night was also a pretty sight with all the lights.
One of the things on my hit list for this trip to Singapore was the largest fountain in the southern hemisphere- the Fountain of Wealth. And so to the fountain we went, located conveniently next to a large shopping centre with a huge Uniqlo and the best H&M I have been to so far.
The fountain was so big that you could walk into it so was definitely worth the trip. We also met my friend Cynthia and her new baby son for lunch. Dinner was with the other half of the couple, her partner Tony, and my husband's friend Drew at Café Iguana back at Clarke Quay.
The next day, we went to Fort Canning Park, which was more of a sprawling park of walkways than an entertaining park for kids. We went to Cynthia and Tony's for dinner at a local restaurant and reacquainted our daughters who enjoyed posing together for photos and holding hands on the walk back to the apartment.
With not enough time as always, the holiday came to an end once again, and it was time to bid farewell to our friends and fly back to Sydney.

A TRUSTED Wigan supermarket boss has been jailed for stealing almost £50,000 from his employers. A court heard that Edward Coughlin was so highly thought of by Asda chiefs that they sent him to represent them at a US convention.
But he hid a guilty secret and was stashing away large amounts of company cash to feed his gambling addiction.
Liverpool Crown Court heard that Coughlin, "corrupted" cashier Deborah Croft into helping him.
But their dishonesty eventually came to light after a colleague spotted that blank "banknote-sized" pieces of paper had been inserted into bundles of cash to "bulk" them up.
The 33-year-old, who ran the Wheatlea branch of the supermarket chain, was jailed for two years and Croft, who said they were lovers, was sentenced to eight months' imprisonment suspended for 18 months.
Jailing Coughlin, who denied they were having an affair, judge Norman Wright said: "Clearly no one could have been put at higher trust then you were. The message needs to go out that for this type of offending prison awaits."
He told him, "You ensnared her (Croft) and corrupted her into your wrongdoing. She overrode her natural sense of decency and honesty. "
Sentencing 34-year-old Croft to eight months' imprisonment suspended for 18 months, he said, "You got not one single penny and you have lost your job, your career and your good name.
"He exploited the emotional attachment you had for him."
Judge Wright said that they had been "in some kind of relationship" and she felt locked in and did not have the courage to confess what was going on with the store takings.
He ordered her to carry out 200 hours' unpaid work and imposed a three-month curfew between 8pm and 6am.
Coughlin, of Marmion Avenue, Bootle, Merseyside pleaded guilty to theft and Croft, of Tudor Grove, Winstanley, pleaded guilty to fraud.
Tom Watson, defending, said that Croft "has brought shame on herself, now got a record for dishonesty and it will have an impact on her employability."
She was struggling to bring up two children in rented accommodation and is now at risk of losing it. She had not benefitted "in any way from the money," he added.
Defence barrister Martin Pizzey said that Coughlin, who is married with no previous convictions, had admitted his guilt which stemmed from his gambling debts. He disputed that he had been having an affair with Croft and said they were just friends.

Did I hear/sense fear of this language in most parents when it comes to coaching their children who are in primary school? You are not alone, my friends.
Little Man who is now in Primary 2 and boy have I noticed the big difference in the amount of work and struggle he's going through just learning the language. It doesn't help much that he is in an English speaking environment most of the time (90% of everyday). 听写now has progressed into 3-4 sentences at least with up to 6-8 short phrases or individual chinese characters every week. Needless to say, the boy, is not the least bit enthusiastic about it every week when it comes to practicing.
In order to make the language more "interesting" and less intimidating, here's what we have adopted at home. It's definitely not fool-proof, but somehow it works to make Little Man resent less of the subject.
Reading & Rewards
To encourage his interest in the language, we read books with HYPY (hanyu pinyin), even though I REALLY REALLY REALLY detest the use of HYPY to teach reading. But it helps to a certain degree in encouraging the reluctant child to get in touch with chinese.
What I've also discovered was for Little Man, he gets more confident after reading the chinese characters with HYPY and when we go over the words he's previously read (while I block the HYPY in the book) he's able to recognize it better.
We try to read at least 2 books per week using the series of chinese readers by Marshal Cavendesh. This was a recommended pack for P1 & P2 children. I figured since the kids' chinese textbook is printed by the same publisher, this series of chinese readers would comprise of all the words the children need to learn for their level.
Here's another set of books which I've bought, which Little Man loves, as he could relate to the encounters that the main character, 歪歪, in the books experienced and he often giggled at the silliness of 歪歪.
So here's what we do with reading, after each book is read, I'll make records of it and once the boy completed 10 books he'll get a reward.
Playing Online Games
The boy loves computer games and it's a saving grace that there are games that Little Man could play that helps him practice the language in a non-threatening way, yet, enjoyable.
One of Little Man's favourite has got to be 学乐 (click this link to check them out). This program helps the child revise what has been taught from the textbook. Besides word recognition, there are other activities in which the child has an opportunity to re-visit all the words they have learned in the classroom, in a lively and enjoyable way.
One of which is the game that comes along each learning unit, that's the part that Little Man loves most and would not reject.
The other note worthy website would be 知识网教学平台 (Ezhishi.net), this is however on a paid subscription basis. This is currently used by Little Missy's school and her teacher uses this program to supplement her teaching in class as well. So far, it's been useful for Little Missy as she's still unable to grasp HYPY quite well currently. This program helps her revise all that she needs to on HYPY.
Watching TV Programs
Apart from computer games, the other non-threatening way of introducing the language is to watch chinese TV programs. Of course, it's got to be kids appropriate programs. We would also sit next to the kids and watch the program together.
On Saturday & Sunday mornings from 8am-12pm, is the segment carved out specially for children. This segment comprises of cartoons, drama, game-shows that are purely in mandarin. We don't sit in front of the telly throughout the 4 hours but when we could we'd usually watch the cartoons.
Speak the Language
We try to encourage the use of the language at home with me speaking the language more often to the kids. We've tried the 4 days speak mandarin days and the other 3 we speak English, it worked for a while but old habits kicked in and we reverted back to speaking English everyday. Till recently, I've decided to be the main person to speak mandarin with the children on a day-to-day basis.
Little Man's problem with the language stems from the lack of confidence in speaking. He has limited vocab on the language which makes it hard for him to express his thoughts in the spoken language, therefore the resistance. So as much as possible, he needs the opportunity to hear and speak it in order to overcome the fear.
Joining Lucky Draw Contests
Yes, you've read correctly! Both my children have subscribed to these materials through their school. And I've found a way to make Little Man read up those articles/stories in these periodicals by exciting him with these lucky draws at the end of each publication. Hah! Don't judge me, anything that interests and excites my son to learning Chinese works for me!
Above which, the teachers in school would also make the kids complete some of the worksheets from these periodicals as and when they received it.
Assessment Books
Like it or not, these still work for us. On a daily basis we would sit the kids down to do a few pages of workbooks, just to revise the day's work. Revision is an important part of being proficient in the language. We do this on a consistent basis so that it wouldn't be too daunting before any tests/exams. A little each day goes a long way for us.
We however, do not overwhelm them with a pile load of assessment books, just one to two books each subject that helps in revision.
Although Little Man isn't very enthusiastic in the subject, he's not doing that badly. Of course that comes with a lot of supervision, encouragement and cajoling from the hubs and me on a day-to-day basis. It's still a struggle, I've to admit but when he came back with full marks in his recent Chinese test, I could see and feel the excitement in him! Oh well, I just need to be more hardworking in guiding and encouraging him in the subject, I guess!

|Choose age appropriate music for the
classroom that willreinforce
lesson plans.
Pre-service art teachers can foster their relationships with school colleagues by keeping resources at hand that enhance the collective necessity of educating children according to state mandates. I keep within my computer files and on my bookshelves useful resources that may be used to further educate my students on many topics covered in art that are not always apparent to those people who are unfamiliar with art history. Topics such as history, culture and life science are all very important to the development of an artistic mind and the study of these interests reinforces education on many different levels. I attended a teacher's meeting at my assigned high school for the state, during my student internship in the Spring semester of 2011. At this meeting the art staff met with the English teachers to discuss the possibility of integrating their subjects. I developed a new lesson plan during this meeting that included the elements of text features within its objectives. I would never have thought to do so, if I had not attended this meeting and learned that students attending this high school experienced significant difficulties identifying text features. When I was asked if I could realistically create a lesson plan that would teach text features; I enthusiastically obliged my colleagues.
I can also expound upon alternative fine art subjects related to my own field of study through the school of humanities. Subjects such as music and theater can be addressed so easily within the fine art classroom. I often play select music that directly reflects the culture or time period of those artists my students are studying. It is a simple and appropriate addition to my curriculum that is encouraged by Missouri state GLE standards. I've listed here just a few music selections that I keep on hand in my classroom for cultural lesson plans.
While student teaching at my assigned elementary location, I introduced to my cooperating teacher and her small charges to a music selection about Vincent Van Gogh. Our students were painting starry night cityscapes when I first played the song to accompany their experience. I've linked to our favorite youtube version of Don McClean's, "Starry Night" included the cityscape lesson plan here.
As an art teacher, I can also design lesson plans that reinforce important learning practices such as: following directions, remembering facts, and comprehending previously taught information on a deeper level. All three of the above points are important in the fostering of relationships with other educators because the learning that students do in my own classroom then reinforces the learning practices of my colleagues. Ultimately, students do test better under conditions such as these.
Being an excellent teacher also requires that my education be very practical. I must learn to maintain my own understanding of current health issues that if otherwise ignored may result dire circumstances for those young people placed under my care. I've included an artifact under this Mostep that I wrote concerning bloodborne pathogens so that administrators can feel confident that I am aware of issues relating to public health awareness.
I can also foster relationships with administrators by consistently attending collegial activities such as school board meetings. I attended a school board meeting at a local high school district in order to better comprehend their necessity in my future career choice. I learned that being a school board member requires excellent management skills. There are so many details and complicated pieces of information to take into consideration when developing policies and balancing the budget. The meeting that I observed lasted for three long hours and was attended by approximately 75 people through out the course of the evening. High School teachers protested low raises to their incomes, students and teachers from an area elementary school were recognized formally for excellence, one child in a gifted program read aloud a story, bond issues were resolved, cafeteria programs were switched, and a new building for preschool and gifted education was approved all in one single solitary evening! The whole event was exhausting. I learned to respect the amount of time and energy involved in running professional education programs from this experience.
Art teachers should also foster relationships with parents and guardians of students through current technology whenever possible. Many schools today communicate with parents and students online through both private and public software programming. I have developed a variety of blogs where I can post assignments live. I can control what my students see and how they interact with that information by developing the internet resource myself. I actively develop projects and procedures that enhance my ordinary classroom curriculum in advance through these free interactive resources.

"World of Warcraft - Females?
Date: 2005-07-11, 12:43PM MST
My girlfriend and I play World of Warcraft and need a 3rd for the perfect party (Healer/Tank/Mage).
We play regularly, about 5:00PM - 11:00PM weekdays and all day Sunday.
Now, the reason for a female, and this is by no means mandatory, is we might be interested in some 'extracurricular' activities. So if you're interested in women, that's a nice plus :)"

natural Weight loss motivation
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
- Fit: True to size
I got a pair for both my dad and younger brother who have been trying to get out and run. They're both struggling a little bit with weight. They've tried running a few times but haven't had a good experience in there tennis shoes.
They've had a great experience with these shoes. They don't have the best physical health or running style but these shoes have been helping them by making it easy to get out and harder to make excuses!
Use your head when you choose your shoes
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: 11
- Height: 6'2"
- Weight: 175lbs
Throughout my life, I'd never been the most physically active person (a grand understatement,) the majority of my time had always been spent sitting or laying down.. and I'd spent the rest waiting for when I could sit or lay down again. Not that I had a disdain for exercise, but virtually everything I had interest in required none unless you count the effort expended typing 75 WPM as exercise or getting 100% of the trophies in Fallout 4 as a workout plan.
Needless to say, I fit the bill when it came to a sedentary lifestyle and I was indifferent towards it. Whenever the rare day came that I'd have to spend a lot of time on my feet, however, it would wreck me. I'm predisposed to the foot/leg issues that run in my family and which claimed my father's ability to walk... my feet and knees are not top shelf, and at 27 years old I'd wager there aren't many folks twice my age who'd swap for mine.
Two months ago I was hired on at a distribution center, and was told out of the gate that I could expect to be on my feet and moving for 8 hours a day. That meant all told I'd be walking approximately 15 miles... every day. I went to work the first day in my old shoes and came home with 4 blisters on my toes. By the end of the week they'd grown larger in size and I had 2 additional ones. I can't even begin to describe how sore I was and my knee was locking up. It was an emergency, and if I didn't get the right shoes fast I didn't know if I could hack it.
So I bought these.
Initially, as I broke them in, I developed one last blister. Now, a month into wearing them, I never have any pain in my feet or knees, I never have blisters, I feel more comfortable on my feet than I ever have before in my life. These shoes are a dream. They fit nice to the form of your feet. The support is excellent, sturdy and cushioning at the same time. You feel like you're gliding when you're wearing them. I actually look forward to spending all day on my feet because I can't wait to put these to use every day. They are the best pair of shoes I've ever owned, it's not even close.
I highly recommend them. Do yourself a favor and purchase them. If they can do what they've done for me, they can take you where you want to go as well.
Perfect shoe !
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
comfortable, true to size and light

My Dad goes on walks every day. We're talking dozens of miles a day. I wanted to get him some new shoes that were nothing like the cheap Costco shoes he usually wears. He loves these. The FuzeGel forms well to his foot and works well for him. They fit true to size, he has pretty average feet, but more on the wide side than narrow, and he loves the fit of them. I'll keep y'all updated on the longevity of them, but for now, he's stoked!
very comfortable

Saturday, 5 November
Blackburn Rovers Vs. Chelsea
Ewood Park
Kick-off: 1500 BST
Where to watch: Match of the Day broadcast a comprehensive highlights program on Saturday and Sunday nights, full details are available on the BBC Web site. In the U.S., Fox Soccer Channel will start its coverage from 1100 EDT.
In Australia, Fox Sports has the exclusive rights to the entire EPL season, while in New Zealand; Sky TV will broadcast a selection of live games.
Indian fans will have to contend with ESPN Star's coverage, full details are available on the company's website.
For all other countries, the official Premier League website has a comprehesive list of broadcasters. Further live online coverage of Saturday afternoon matches from around the world is available here.
Preview: Chelsea travel to Blackburn Rovers hoping to end their recent jitters and will be buoyed by their recent form against the Lancashire club having won 13 of the last 18 meetings between the Premier League sides.
Andre Villas-Boas' team have lost their last two Premier League games, against Queens Park Rangers and Arsenal, and have of course found themselves embroiled in the investigation into John Terry's alleged racist abuse of Anton Ferdinand.
Steve Kean's side have been gradually improving in recent weeks but still find themselves precariously placed in 18th position in the table, but remarkably the much maligned Ewood Park chief maintains his side can fulfil their ambition of playing European football within five years.
"The owners want us within four or five years to competing in Europe season on season," Kean told The Times. "I don't think there's any reason why we can't do that.
"But what they want to do is to do it gradually. I don't think they're going to throw hundreds of millions at it to get there in one season.
"Obviously when you're in a position in the bottom three, it's not nice, but they're very successful business people.
"And once they make their mind up about what direction they want to go in any business, I think they will stick to it.
"They will give it a period of time and then they will judge it. Certainly not within ten games.
"They know where they want us to go long-term and nothing is going to change."
Rovers' defensive woes continue to hamper their lofty ambitions with Scott Dann, Ryan Nelson and Michel Salgado all side-lined, but Kean is hoping their standout youngster Junior Hoilett shrugs off the injury which forced him off against Norwich last week.
Chelsea will be without the injured Jon Obi Mikel but Andre Villas-Boas will recall his talismanic skipper John Terry, as well Frank Lampard and the increasingly influential Juan Mata, all of whom were substitutes during their 1-1 draw with Genk in midweek.
Despite his side's perceived weakness at the back, the aforementioned Portuguese tactician believes they have a cohesive enough backline to cope with the demands of Blackburn, but did admit he is hoping for a much improved team performance than witnessed in recent weeks.
"Defending is a collective organisation - it's nothing about one or more individuals," he told Chelsea's official website.
"It is to do with collective organisation, and there are collective mistakes we have addressed, I think we went one step up in terms of our collective organisation against Genk and we will just have to try to continue to transfer that into the games and create more goalscoring opportunities and prevent the opponent from creating theirs.
"There is always room for improvement, there must be. We are not satisfied with conceding goals but our most important task is to create more goalscoring opportunities than our opponent and put them in the back of the net because if we do that we are able to win most of the games.
"We have good solid organisation, and it is not one game that ends 5-3 that will make us question our defensive organisation, particularly when two goals happen from different situations, situations that are imponderables from the game - a player slipping when a pass goes behind and when you are going all-out attack to try to get a draw.
"Our defensive organisation is solid, it's competent and we have complete trust in it."
Chelsea will be looking to improve on their away record, which is currently the worst form of any side in the current top six, having amassed just seven points from five matches.
Probable Lineups:
Blackburn Rovers: Robinson, Lowe, Givet, Samba, Olsson, Pedersen, N'Zonzi, Rochina, Hoilett, Formica, Yakubu.
Chelsea: Cech, Bosingwa, Luiz, Terry, Cole, Ramires, Meireles, Lampard, Sturridge, Torres, Mata.

On January 7, 2015, a California federal judge granted an FCA defendant's Motion to Dismiss premised on allegations that it failed to comply with Good Manufacturing Practices ("cGMPs") regulations. See U.S. ex rel. Campie v. Gilead Sciences, Inc., No. 11-cv-00941 (N.D. Cal. Jan. 7, 2015).
In this case, two former Gilead employees with quality control responsibilities filed a Qui Tam action against their previous employer alleging various violations of cGMP requirements. The relators asserted in their Complaint that they discovered and reported to Gilead officials numerous violations of Federal Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") regulations, but that Gilead concealed those violations resulting in the sale of misbranded, adulterated drugs. According to relators, each sale of an affected drug was "false" for purposes of FCA liability.
The Court went through each of the relators' theories and dismissed them. The theories included: (1) using an unregistered manufacturing facility; (2) distributing adulterated drugs; (3) making false statements in New Drug Applications ("NDA"); (4) submitting false certificates of analysis that an active pharmaceutical ingredient was in compliance with cGMPs; and (5) using adulterated drugs in clinical trial products.
The Court noted in its opinion that even when companies make a purported false certification to a regulatory agency such as the FDA, asserting that the company is in compliance with provisions of the FDA Act, that certification cannot in and of itself serve as a basis for an FCA action. Rather, there must be a link between the alleged false statement and the resulting request for payment, namely that the payment must be conditioned on the falsity. Here, the Court did not find the requisite link and granted Gilead's Motion to Dismiss.
This case can be seen as a step in the right direction in terms of limiting the reach of the FCA and reinforcing that the FCA is not intended to police minor technical and/or regulatory violations unrelated to the contractor's receipt of federal funding. This case should be cited to by Defendants when faced with an FCA claim based on alleged regulatory non-compliance as it provides additional support and reasoning behind the "Request for Payment" link required before FCA liability should attach.

Question for you experts!
Bought a home that has the Vivint SkyControl Panel. Previous family living there will not give us the alarm pin. Is there any way for me to takeover this panel and use it as a local alarm to go off just inside the home without dialing any monitoring service or police/fire department?
The problem is, without the pin code, the alarm turns back on when I plug the panel in. If I absolutely have to have the pin code, is there a way for me to unplug the loud sounding alarm while I try to plug in all my pin code guesses? Is there a way to reset the panel so I don't need the pin?
If I'm out of luck, could I buy the newest 2gig panel and try to connect all the cameras, door sensors, and window sensors to use as a local alarm? Or could I buy another skycontrol panel from someone who gives me the pin and connect it to all our sensors for a local alarm? Any help over this forum or PM would be greatly appreciated!

How to Stay Focused When Working At Home

Sometimes I check the windshield wipers on other cars, just to make sure I'm not being too dramatic.
Month: November 2017
A Season of Quiet
At the end there is a season of quiet.
There is no way around the fact that this is an ending. We sold the last beehive this past Saturday and the only livestock we are left with are the chickens. (On a side note, we still have 8 of the original 10 chicks we bought at the feed store two years ago. I think that's got to be some kind of record! Haha.)
The last three geese went home with a nice gentlemen from Bellevue two Saturdays ago. He also bought five dozen eggs, our one and only egg sale – go figure. I've started selling my tractor implements and a nice man from nearby gave me $500 earnest money toward the purchase of my haying setup. We also have a realtor coming for an initial look at the property this Saturday.
It's tempting to be sad. And I am a little but not in a distressing way. It's hard to explain. Even though, one way or another, we will be leaving this place, the spirit of this life will continue.
Our immediate plans – don't laugh! – are to move into an RV in a local park and put any money we clear on this place in the bank for a future purchase. Okay you can laugh a little but we do have a reason for this plan. Barring some super, drastic change at my place of employment I cannot continue to work there. It's just too chaotic and oppressive. I don't wish to separate from the company so we will have to relocate. Selling the house now removes a big source of stress and increases our flexibility to pursue opportunities at other sites. When the opening that we need comes along we will be ready to go.
Or perhaps I will separate from the company and begin an entirely new career, who knows? But that is a possibility and not the plan.
I have to tell you that along with the sadness of letting go there comes a little peace as well. I am actually looking forward to the quiet time ahead to reflect and see how I can carry the myriad things I've learned over the last two years into the future. Things that I have always wanted to do are no longer a mystery. I know what it takes to keep bees. I know what it takes to keep chickens. I've started an asparagus bed and planted fruit trees. I know what it takes to keep a cow and that keeping a cow is no longer an option (and that's okay). I also know better now what my limits are, physically and mentally. I know more about how much I'm willing to sacrifice and not sacrifice.
These are not small things to know and all hard won. They are just as important as physical tools and perhaps more durable.
I guess that's it for now. Peace.

Club Penguin - EXTREMELY RARE Viking Penguin Plush Toy and Certificate of AuthenticityDelete
I am selling a Viking Penguin Club Penguin plush toy accompanied by it's original certificate of authenticity. These were the reward of a random drawing initiated by Club Penguin. 3,000 of these sets were distributed with a monumental amount of participants making the chances of winning extremely minuscule. It was apart of the FIRST AND LAST batch of these toys and these toys were the first series of plush toys. Without the success of these, Club Penguin very well may not have continued this trend. These items will complete any Disney or Club Penguin collection you may have.
These artifacts of Club Penguin history, nearly six years old, are in spectacular condition. The certificate of authenticity has minor creasing but has no tears or ink fading. The plush toy is just as it was received in the package six years ago. Remember that this is an essential piece of Club Penguin history.
If you are interested please email me at email@example.com with the subject heading of Club Penguin Viking Plush Toy.
