Group Offers Dreams to Special Kids
LAS VEGAS — You've heard of the Special Olympics — kids with special needs who win medals for track and field. But, what about those special needs kids who just want to sing, dance and perform on Broadway someday?
Lifelong Dreams is group that helps those kids with special needs achieve those dreams, and those dreams are coming true.
James Alovea has always dreamed of singing in front of an audience.
"I like that you can get to be free with your voice and let it all out," he said.
His life has been confined to this wheelchair. Cerebral palsy made James believe his love for music would never be heard, until now. Lifelong Dreams has given dozens of kids with special needs the chance to sing, dance and perform.
"They should have an opportunity to express themselves. That's what inspired us," said Lifelong Dreams co-founder Tshlene Henreid.
Henreid and co-founder Cathy Warriner started Lifelong Dreams three years ago. Henreid used to be a dancer herself, before rheumatoid arthritis shattered her dreams. Now she lives them through kids like James.
"I don't think they realize how much they heal our hearts and how they are medicine for our souls," she said.
For these 25 teens, all they've ever wanted to do is to show they are like everyone else. It's concerts that has helped James come out of his shell. No longer are these kids the quiet, shy ones in school.
"I can go on and on about the miracles that are helping in their lives. Now, they are auditioning for school plays," said Henreid.
Both James and Tshlene are living their dreams. James went from watching the singers, to becoming one.
"This group helped me go from behind the stage to on stage," he said.
These kids aren't disabled. There are no wheelchairs, no canes, no down syndrome here in this concert hall. They perform just like anyone else, and sometime even better.
Both co-founders of Lifelong Dreams pay for everything out of their pocket, they could use the help. Also, they have had no place to practice, jumping from church to church just for the kids to be able to get their music lesson.
I had the opportunity to attend the production this past weekend and my heart was full!!! I don't have much to donate, but, whatever I do have, will go to this organization! There was not a dry eye in the audience. What an experience for all who attended. They were so talented and these kids hearts were so pure and transparent. You could see straight to their souls. God bless everyone involved. — diabell
What an awesome group and such talented children. I really hope that people in the area can help them out. I've checked out their website and they are such precious children. Can't wait to contact them and find out how i can help. — LVHobbit
I live in Brooklyn, New York and volunteer with similar groups of young adults with special gifts in the NYC metro area. I know how much of a blessing it is to my life just to experience a feeling of pure love which is not an easy thing to find. I want to encourage my fellow "young at heart Baby Boomers " in the Las Vegas Area to support "Lifelong Dreams" and watch how much "YOU" grow! Special congratulations to all the volunteers, especially My Twin Sister, who shared her spirit of joy to a Broadway caliber production! — Aunt

Megan Rosener loves to sing, dance and act — but they're fairly new pursuits.
She suffered a stroke when she was born and lives with cerebral palsy, Attention Deficit Disorder and seizures. And Hollywood and Broadway don't offer a lot of roles for children with special needs.
Then her mother, Yogi Rosener, heard about Life Long Dreams, a free program that gives children with physical and learning disabilities their moment in the spotlight.
Megan, 14 of Desert Shores, was initially hesitant to be on stage because her impairments left her feeling like an outsider. But as two of her fellow teen performers held her hand and led her on stage at her first performance with the group, Megan's inner diva came out.
"Her self confidence has just exploded," Yogi said. "She was the last one to raise her hand. She's raising her hand at school now. She does choir. She's volunteering to do projects. She would never do this before."
Megan's transformation into a performer and socialite took only a few months.
Life Long Dreams gives children with physical and learning disabilities the chance to show off their hidden talents on stage. But as the founders, parents and teachers say it also gives the children a boost to their self esteem and perhaps a career in film, television and the stage.
Cathy Warriner and Tshlene Henreid started the group last December. Warriner is the mother of a son with Down syndrome and Henreid was a professional dancer.
At the peak of her career, Henreid was struck with rheumatoid arthritis that forced her into a wheelchair for four years.
Life took a turn but not for the worse, she said.
Henreid worked as a talent agent in Los Angeles for 11 years before moving to Las Vegas last year. Within six months, she had organized a talent show for children with chronic health conditions and special needs called Wish Upon a Star.
That's when she met Warriner and the two were inspired by the enthusiasm and stage presence of the performers.
"I wanted people to know that no matter what, no matter what special need or challenge you have that it's here in our hearts and our minds if we want to overcome something. We don't have to be great at it, we just need to do what we love," Henreid said.
Henreid recently founded Cypress Entertainment Co. to represent special needs children using her Hollywood connections.
"We need to get that industry a little more open minded because they can act," she said.
Warriner's 18-year-old son Zach appears as an extra in Disney's High School Musical 3. He met the film's stars, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, in a private interview.
Before he could talk, Zach could hum 50 songs by heart, Cathy said. He learned to play the piano and trumpet by ear and sings constantly at home.
"After watching him on stage, I realized he's a totally different person. He transforms from having Down syndrome to just being an entertainer," she said.
Henreid would like to grow the nonprofit organization to include a touring group and open up franchises worldwide so every child has a chance to realize their stage dreams.
The group has about 20 children now, though not all have disabilities.
Silverado resident Theresa Vance said her 14-year-old daughter Jessica was a typical teenage drama queen slowly realizing the world didn't revolve around her. Then she joined Life Long Dreams to have the ability to perform outside of school programs and now helps out more at home and in school.
Jessica was one of two of the normal functioning teens that helped Megan Rosener overcome her stage fright.
"It's been such an eye opening experience to see my child helping these children without any reservations and without any prejudgments or prejudices," Theresa Vance said. "She's always had a big heart but her heart has just opened up more. She's learned that she's not just a special child, that there are other kids out there that have more obstacles in life but can do just the same things that she can just as well if not better."
For Jessica, it's the first step toward Broadway.
And Megan, an eighth grader, wants to attend the Las Vegas Academy next year.
The group meets every Saturday at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints chapel, 2555 N. Jones Blvd., for an hour of singing and an hour of dance practice.
The choreography also works as a form of physical therapy and singing is akin to speech therapy for some of the children.
"These children do not have the same opportunities as normal functioning children. I'm sure a music teacher in a school that had a choir full of kids would be happy to welcome them but they would not be able to get the kind of one-on-one attention that they get in this program," said Stephanie Thompson, vocal coach. "This program is all about them."
The Life Long Dreams performers are scheduled to sing and dance at a Shoes for Children fundraiser Dec. 13 and the next day at a fundraiser for themselves. The second show was organized by local musician Phil Flowers, who is also giving the children a chance to record an album of original music.
The group is searching for more young stars, with or without disabilities, and community support to make their dreams real.

Kids get chance to shine
Group finds place on local stage for youth
By JAN HOGAN
As a child, Tshlene Henreid dreamed of being on stage.
Now, she's making that dream come true for talented children who have mental or physical disabilities.
She has set up a nonprofit organization called Life Long Dreams to do just that — putting them on local stages to allow them the chance to shine.
One of the participants is Zach Warringer, 17, who has Down syndrome. He also has an ear for singing, which transcends his disability.
In February, Henreid arranged for Zach to appear at a private function held at Palace Station and entertained patrons at Go Raw Café, 2910 Lake East Drive in The Lakes. He also appeared on stage at the Fremont Street Experience for the Taste and Sounds of Soul event on March 9.
"I like the music nice and loud, and I like it when the crowd sings along," Zach said. "I like it when they clap."
Henreid was born and raised in Oakland, Calif. She realized her childhood dream of being a dancer and enjoyed a whirlwind career that took her all around the globe, she explained.
But in 1989, when Henreid was in her mid-20s and at the height of her career, she returned from Japan with painful swelling in her ankles. It was diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis, and it may have started there, but it didn't stay.
It invaded her entire body, putting her in the hospital for a month. The pain, she said, was excruciating.
"I couldn't brush my teeth or dress myself," she recalled. "You think only older people get arthritis. I had no clue I could be in the shape I was in."
The arthritis put her in a wheelchair for two years and necessitated a replacement joint for her left shoulder.
She spent the next 11 years in Los Angeles running her own talent agency, booking talent for everything from the Tom Cruise movie "The Last Samurai" to Britney Spears' music videos.
Last year, Henreid moved to Las Vegas, where she co-produced a winter holiday show that highlighted children with health issues. That sparked the idea for the foundation and got the ball rolling.
"I know the struggle just to get out of bed each day," Henreid said. "I want to inspire these kids."
"If this can make my son happy, how many other kids are out there that I can make happy, too?" said Zach's mother, Cathy Warringer. "When he's up there on stage, you can see his natural talent. It's like the part of his brain that's not inhibited with Downs, takes over. When he's performing, he changes hearts."
The charity plans to set up other local performances so children with mental or physical disabilities can sing, dance, put on fashion shows and participate behind the scenes. For more information on Life Long Dreams, call 979-4642.

Atrial fibrillation (or Afib) is the most common arrhythmia in the world - the top part of the heart goes out of sync. This causes your heart to get confused and to beat irregularly. Afib can also cause blood clots. For most people with Afib, just following up with your primary care provider is sufficient. In other cases, other treatments might be a good option - blood thinners that prevent the risk of stroke, medication as well as an ablation procedure. The longer you stay in Afib, the harder it is to make the Afib go away.

Giving Fathers A Voice
Fathers often feel alone, isolated, misunderstood and hopeless. The Center believes that it is imperative that fathers' voices are heard. Not only does the Center help fathers tell their stories, but it also works with partner agencies that are anxious to hear personal testimonies which can serve to educate and erase negative stereotypes about fathers and misperceptions about their wants and needs.
In June 2010 the Sisters of Charity Foundation of South Carolina hosted a listening session with fathers and local fatherhood program directors from around the state. Foundation staff, Board of Trustees, the Center staff and Board of Trustees were present to listen to the fathers testimonies of life before and after a fatherhood program. For a full review of the fathers feedback, read Rebirthing Hope: Fatherhood Listening Session Summary.
In 2006 the US Department of Health and Human Services Administration of Children and Families awarded 101 grants across the nation to promote responsible fatherhood. As part of a comprehensive review about the effectiveness of these grantees, the Office of Family Assistance at the Administration of Children and Families interviewed fathers in six locations across the nation. Lancaster Fatherhood Project in Lancaster, South Carolina was selected as one of the six locations. Fathers from the program participated in a two hour conversation with facilitators during which they shared their perspectives about fatherhood, fatherhood programs, relationships and advice for other fathers. Read the entire report, Listening In: Voices of Dads in Responsible Fatherhood Programs.

Mesothelioma Symptoms
Mesothelioma symptoms may vary depending on whether the mesothelioma is in the pleura of the lung (the thin membrane surrounding the lungs) or peritoneum of the lung (the membrane lining the abdominal cavity).
Symptoms in the early stages of mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is very difficult to diagnose in the early stages, with early symptoms so minor they are often mistaken for everyday aches and pains. Symptoms will often not arise until the illness has progressed to a severe level. When the symptoms do develop, it is often because the cancer has grown to a point where it is pressing against an internal organ.
The symptoms of pleural mesothelioma
Typical symptoms of pleural mesothelioma include:
- Pain in the lower back or the side of the chest
- Shortness of breath
- Sweating and high temperatures
- A persistent cough
- Unexplained weight loss
- Difficulty swallowing
- A hoarse or husky voice
The symptoms of peritoneal mesothelioma
Typical symptoms of peritoneal mesothelioma include:
- Pain in the abdomen (tummy)
- Swelling in the abdomen
- Feeling or being sick
- Poor appetite
- Unexplained weight loss
- Diarrhoea or constipation
How long do symptoms take to develop?
Symptoms of mesothelioma and other asbestos related cancers don't become noticeable until 10 to 50 years after exposure to asbestos. Unfortunately, due to to this long latency period, by the time mesothelioma is diagnosed it has usually progressed to a severe level which means the prognosis is always a negative one.
What to do if you are suffering from these symptoms
All of the symptoms mentioned above can be caused by illnesses other than mesothelioma. However, if you are suffering from any of these symptoms it is important that you visit your doctor as soon as possible, especially if you have been exposed to asbestos in the past.

It has been hot.
Nerves are frayed.
Patience is thin and he feels the tension in the air.
Feeding on the emotions of those closest to him.
He doesn't do it on purpose. He is not screaming for the sake of screaming. He is screaming because of some perceived change or sequence of events that he has deemed necessary has not occurred.
Something that needs to happen in the exact way he has decided for him to feel safe. To feel OK. To reduce the fear.
The heat has sapped my energy, the motherfuckingstupidlimparse arm thing has me a little off my game.
I know him well. I can anticipate his needs and literally smell a meltdown. But lately not so much.
But even he doesn't know what is happening. He doesn't know what he wants.
But he knows it is not that.
Or for you to do that. Or eat that. Or whatever.
His senses are on high alert. Clothes don't feel right. Noises are too noisy. Just the act of walking past him can illicit a major response that even he is surprised by.
He pulled out another tooth.
Sleep is a non-event. Eating is constant.
Anything to feel OK. Anything to feel, not this.
Autism sucks. It fucking sucks.
I adore him. He is the light of my life. He is my Boo and my life is enriched by him.
But the Autism. The part that makes him feel like this, act like this, be like this, bites.
And that my girls lives are ruled by his moods, his fears, his weird arsed rules.
I know people think that by hating the Autism I am hating who he is.
But he is not Autism. He is Boo. He is amazing and wonderful despite the Autism.
To me, the Autism is the meltdowns, the confusion, the utter terror of an action being performed in such a way that it is not right.
THAT I hate. Because of the way it makes him feel. That look in his eyes. And as he grows older I fear for the future. Our future. Of the time in the not too distant future when he towers over me and I will not be able to control the meltdowns.
Of the day he realises that he can be boss if he wants to. The day he realises that he is stronger than me.
And I lay in bed in the middle of the night listening to him singing and drawing in his room and my mind races. I am scared. It is happening more often now. My heart races and clenches at the same time.
Scared of him becoming a man. Of shaving him. Still in nappies.
I know that people will be angered by my words. I know that some will say that Autism is part of who he is and by saying these things I am not accepting him for him. That I should just get over myself. That I am heartless and a bad mother and whatever for wishing away a part of my child.
And to those people I say fuck you. Fuck you sideways with a mouldy sweet potato.
Cause funnily enough I still have one in my pantry.
I think I just need some sleep.

"Click" for more information on our Database subscription services
Support Services
WELEARN offers our members personalized attention to design a curriculum that is unique to the student and a schedule that fits each student's study habits.
Curriculum Consulting:
Students will first take a series of assessments – cognitive, academic, personality, and others. The cognitive strengths assessment helps to identify the student's interests, preferences, and what aspects of learning they find most engaging. The academic assessment will identify the student's strongest subject areas as well as those where they require additional support. It will also help determine the learning style that is best for the student for each subject area. Other assessments will include emotional intelligence, resiliency, and growth mindset.
The Curriculum consultant will then provide the student and parents with options for the best courses in each subject area from a range of online education institutions. The consultant will then work with the student and parents to design a personalized curriculum that best fits the student.
Time Management:
Once the curriculum has been decided, our time management team will breakdown the student's coursework into weekly and daily task objectives to ensure the student is completing their coursework on schedule. The student will be given a schedule each day of what needs to be completed. The Time Manager will meet with the student if they are falling behind or moving ahead and adjust the daily tasks as needed.
The Time Manager will also notify the student when exams are approaching and work with the WELEARN team to ensure the student is properly prepared for all exams.
Parents will also be given daily and/or weekly reports on the student's progress so the student remains accountable even outside the learning center.
"How to online school Guidebook"
Our Guidebook is a one-stop resource for everything a parent needs to know before they decide to transition their child to an online school program.
The Guidebook will discuss the basics of online education as well as the university preparation and admissions criteria specific to online school students, and will explain in detail local laws and regulations regarding online school students.

EU leaders warned of hedge fund risk
The Economic and Financial Committee, made up of deputy finance ministers and central bankers from the EU member states, wrote that "hedge funds can contribute to market efficiency and sharing of risks but can also be a source of systemic risks". Governments and the EU should redouble their efforts to better regulate hedge funds, the report warned.The report was prepared for European finance ministers meeting over the weekend in Vienna, and was leaked to financial media earlier this week. The committee also identified credit derivatives as a source of concern, noting that assessing the risks involved remained difficult for banks and regulators alike. It also highlighted back-office delays as a source of "wider instabilities in the financial system".

Today's Rationale?
Nine days until Christmas…and Mommy just got dragged away in handcuffs for a bunch of show arrests. Nice.
The shifting rationale for the ICE raids on the Swift Meatpacking plants is making me very peeved. What began as a "raid on illegal immigrants" has morphed into an "identity theft ring" justification in the last 24 hours. Except, the numbers as released thus far, do not hold up for that justification: (H/T to TPMMuck)
Announcing the success of its massive "Operation Wagon Train" yesterday, DHS officials insisted the raids that netted nearly 1,300 arrests were about busting up an identity theft ring. The stats tell a different story.
According to DHS' own tally, only 65 of the 1,282 arrests were for criminal violations, including identity-theft related crimes. That means that over 1,200 of the people arrested had no connection to any identity theft rings, and were guilty only of run-of-the-mill immigration violations. That didn't temper the agency's rhetoric.
Of course the DHS didn't temper their rhetoric. Michael Chertoff is, and always has been, about the PR aspects of his job — the actual DOING of the job being the irritating side thing that he'll get to after the latest presser at some point.
Latina Lista has even more on this, including questions as to why, if identity theft is such a huge priority for the DHS, that college campuses across the nation haven't been raided as well for all those fake IDs.
The Denver Post speculates that these raids are an attempt by the Bush Administration to pressure the incoming Congress to deal with immigration issues early in the term — guess Bush is desperate to be able to sign something, anything, that gets the GOP back on track with latino voters. Maybe it's just me, but arresting parents and leaving their nursing babies behind is not exactly the way to build good will among any particular community, now is it?
Nice that these families lives get to be ripped apart right before Christmas so that Bushie can put on a good show, isn't it?
And what about those kids left behind when their parents are dragged off without access to counsel for…well, for more than 24 hours now in a number of cases? (Never mind that a lot of these folks likely have English issues and were pressured to sign off on documentation without the advice of legal counsel which will be difficult to revoke now.) Authorities in Texas, at least, appear to think it's not their responsibility to help out:
Late Tuesday in Dallas, agency spokesman Carl Rusnok, asked about delays in getting the workers access to lawyers, said agents at the scene "still have to process the people they have arrested."
The union also had located at least 35 children in the nearby communities of Dalhart and Stratford whose parents were in custody. Mr. Rodriguez did not know how many children were stranded in Cactus and Dumas, a city about 15 miles from the plant.
Any of the children born in the United States are U.S. citizens, regardless of their parents' immigration status.
In neighboring Randall County, Sheriff Joel Richardson said he was prepared to hold about 50 federal detainees for up to six months. "I just brought an extra person into booking," he said. "Otherwise, we were ready."
Under a contract, the U.S. government pays the county $47.73 daily for each federal inmate.
Federal agencies hadn't asked Texas officials for help with the workers' children, said Greg Cunningham, a spokesman for Texas Child Protective Services in Amarillo. "It's our understanding that there's a mechanism in place with the federal officials to take care of these types of situations," he said.
So, let's see what we have here: a meat-packing company with a history of skating immigration laws (and allegations of them having some sort of scheme to import illegal workers from Guatamala) skates out of this scot free thus far.
Meanwhile, a mere nine days away from Christmas, these kids get the present of their parents being seized and hauled away, unable to contact them to let them know they are okay — with no time to make arrangements for their children's care.
And, in one case, a mother who was nursing her child is dragged off and cannot be located, while the child is left to deal with the consequences of being weaned against it's will by governmental agents. Which, as someone who has breastfed a child, is not something that should be done aburptly — and can have serious health consequences for the child, considering those first few months of breastfeeding provide the best portion of immunity protection and DHA for the child's developing brain. It can be incredibly difficult to get a nursing child to switch to a bottle — which can result in very adverse health consequences for the baby at a time when nutrition is crucial. Plus, if the mother and child are not reunited, and soon, the mom's milk will dry up — not exactly an easy, pain-free process, let me tell you, when you have to deal with an abrupt change like this — and the potential for her being able to even nurse her child after a few days of this goes down substantially. Stress can also have substantial adverse consequences.
Family values party, my ass.
If they were truly concerned with these childrens' welfare, they would have coordinated with local authorities and social services supervisors so that mechanisms were in place for temporary foster care placements and other service implementation, including the mound of paperwork that will now need to be processed to get these kids medical cards, temporary food and clothing assistance and other help — because they are US citizens and CHILDREN, and ought not be simply left standing outside their homes with no one to care for them. That is unconscionable and yet another example of piss poor planning by the DHS. Heckuva job, Mikey!
Beyond that, though, background checks, priors checks and other considerations will need to be taken into account for adults who are, at least temporarily anyway, caring for these children who have been left behind. The last thing you want is for these kids to be taken in by some seemingly caring adult…who happens to have a long history of pedophelia or violent tendencies or what have you. (Yes, I have been down this road before in abuse and neglect cases…and you do not even want to know what can happen to children in a placement that turns out to be a nightmare.)
That authorities in Texas are saying "Not my problem. The Feds are going to have to deal with this." is frightening — because the Feds are likely passing the buck right back to the locals. Which means the kids have had to scramble to find an adult to care for them on their own…and that can often lead to the very thing that no child should ever — EVER — have to survive.
And that is just for starters. According to the Dallas article, Texas authorities have no idea how many children may actually be stranded and/or affected by this. Well, that's encouraging, isn't it?
I have very little patience for folks who violate the law — and that includes the meat packing plant which clearly has a "don't ask, just git to work" policy when it comes to its own hiring practices. But it is apparently too much to ask that the Federal authorities at the Department of Homeland Security stop and say to themselves, "Should we make an utter wreck of these children's lives a mere nine days before Christmas without making some provision for these families somehow — some show of decency and compassion to ease things a bit for all of these children?"
Apparently so.
The next person in the Bush Administration who parades around their compassionate conservative "Christian" values is in for a serious bout of shit from me. Ebenezer Scrooge had nothing on these people.

Yamazaki Castle
-Temporal main base at transitional period-
Name: Yamazaki castle (Yamazaki-jo)
Alias: Tennozan Hoji-jo / Hoshakuji-jo
Place: Tennozan Oyamazaki town, Kyoto
Type: Mountain Castle
Built: 15th century, renovated in 1583
Remaining remnants: Stone walls and moats
Brief History
Continued from Shoryuji castle
Yamazaki castle (山崎城) locates at the top of Tennozan mountain, one of 270 meter above sea level at the middle of Kyoto city and Osaka city. Tennozan mountain is the south edge of mountains surrounding Kyoto basin, and at the border of Kyoto basin and Osaka plain. This castle has various name such as Tennozan Hoji castle (天王山宝寺城) or Hoshakuji castle (宝積寺) using the name of related items.
As Tennozan mountain is a eye-catching one along important road connected Kyoto city and Osaka city, this mountain had been treated as a sacred place, and old shrines and temples such as Sakatoke shrine of Hoshakuji temple were built. Beside this, at hillside Yamazaki town the guild of vegetable oil prospered throughout medieval era.
Origin of Yamazaki castle
Because of its location, Tennozan mountain had been involved into many battles, and castle was built on the mountain around the end of 15th century as a gate of Kyoto city. But once Nobunaga Oda (1534-1582), the warlord of Owari province (western half of Aichi prefecture) captured Kyoto city in 1567 and became the central ruler, Yamazaki castle once became not used.
In June 1582, Mitsuhide Akechi (1528-1582), a regional commander of Nobunaga, made a coup d'etat against Nobunaga stayed at Honnoji temple in Kyoto city and forced him to suicide. Mitsuhide once seized Kinki region, but fought against Hideyoshi Hashiba (1537-1598, later Hideyoshi Toyotomi), another regional commander returned from front of Chugoku region at Yamazaki. Both side seemed Tennozan as a critical place and Akechi army once occupied this mountain, but finally Hideyoshi beat Mitsuhide at this battle and accomplished the revenge of his master. Even today "Tennozan" is used to express critical point of league match of several sports.
Complex situation after revenge
After the battle of Yamazaki, situation of Oda clan fell into complex one. Even though Nobunaga and his successor Nobutada Oda (1557-1582) died in the incident, second son Nobukatsu Oda (1558-1630) and third son Nobutaka Oda (1558-1583) were still alive. Among the generals the position of Hideyoshi who accomplished the revenge and beat Mitsuhide significantly rose up, but Katsuie Shibata (1521-1583), a veteran general from the period of Nobuhide Oda (1510-1551), father of Nobunaga, also had a power as a commander of Hokuriku region.
Once the situation was fixed, important retainers of Nobunaga including Hideyoshi and Katsuie had a conference at Kiyosu castle (Aichi prefecture) in July 1582, to decide next structure of Oda clan. Hidenobu Oda (1580-1605) became the leader of Oda clan but was still child, thus Nobutaka Oda supported Hidenobu. Hideyoshi gained Kyoto and Osaka area, but gave his old territory Nagahama castle (Shiga prefecture) to Katsuie. Hideyoshi became the first position, but Oda clan was still operated by collective leadership system.
Build of Yamazaki castle
Among such situation, Hideyoshi needed new main base in Kinki region. It was necessary to show the power of Hideyoshi, but also needed not to too much stimulate other people of Oda clan. It was still difficult to build a castle in Kyoto city because only ruler is allowed to so, and Osaka area is also impossible as Osaka area might be thought as next base by Nobunaga.
As a result of compromise, Hideyoshi decided to build his castle at the top of Tennozan mountain. It was close to Kyoto city and Osaka city but does not exist in itself, thus it was appropriate to control both city indirectly without excessive impressions. Additionally, it was just a place where Hideyoshi beat Mitsuhide and made a revenge of Nobunaga, and Yamazaki castle shows the authority of Hideyoshi to the nation. After a rush work, new Yamazaki castle completed in the former half of 1583.
Structure of Yamazaki castle
Yamazaki castle roughly consist of two layer terraces. Upper area includes main tower basement, central area, secondary area and connecting small terraces. Main tower basement is a small one of about 30 meter long and 15 meter wide, and there might be two or three floor main tower. Total size of upper area is about 100 meter long and 50 meter wide, and north slope and east slope of central area which faces Kyoto city and hillside road were covered with stone walls.
Lower area spread at the east of upper area, and consist of several flat terraces continues over 200 meter. Main gate of the castle from Sakatoke shrine exists at south east edge, and it is built as a complex gate with folding path. Backside gate of the castle is built at north edge of the area, and is separated from outer area by dry moat and clay wall. A vertical wall is built along the slope between upper area and lower area, to guard steps from lower area to upper area.
Current place of Sakatoke shrine might be used as a front fort of the castle, and Hoshakuji was used as a hillside residence. Total size of Yamazaki castle was about 200 meter long square, and far smaller than Nagahama castle or Himeji castle (Hyogo prefecture) already built by Hideyoshi as his main base.
Too early collapse of transitional order
New order decided at Kiyosu conference did not last long. Just at the next month of the conference Hideyoshi holds funeral of Nobunaga only by him own, and impressed him as a successor of Nobunaga. Katsuie tried to stop the movement of Hideyoshi and send envoys to Hideyoshi to accuse the hold of funeral and build of Yamazaki castle, but Hideyoshi utilized winter season when Katsuie could not move from his territory Hokuriku region, individually suppressed Nobutaka Oda and Kazumasu Takigawa who supported Katsuie.
In March 1583 Katsuie ploughed deep snow and advanced to the border of Omi province (Shiga prefecture) to rescue Kazumasu and Nobutaka, but next month Katsuie suffered fatal defeat by Hideyoshi at the battle of Shizugatake, and died at his main base Shizugatake castle. After that Nobutaka was forced to suicide and Kazumasu surrendered to Hideyoshi, and Nagahide Niwa already supported Hideyoshi.
Now Hideyoshi significantly approached to next ruler, but Nobukatsu Oda still remain and resisted against Hideyoshi in cooperation with Ieyasu Tokugawa (1543-1616), a former ally of Nobunaga, and this lead to the battle of Komaki Nagakute in 1584.
Afterward of the castle
After a victory at the battle of Shizugatake, Hideyoshi started to build huge Osaka castle (Osaka prefecture) as his residence without any reserve. Next year central area of Osaka castle was roughly completed, and Hideyoshi broke Yamazaki castle and moved to Osaka castle. Now all buildings were lost but shape of each area remain well, and stones used at stone walls slightly remain around the central area.
Currently sight from hilltop area is not good limited by trees, but formerly wide area from Kyoto to Osaka might be seen from the main tower. Small but solid shape of Yamazaki castle clearly shows hidden but firm ambition of Hideyoshi to be the next ruler.
15 minutes walk from JR West Tokaido-Honsen line Yamazaki station or 20 minutes walk from Hankyu Kyotosen line Oyamazaki station to hillside entrance at Tennozan-Hoji temple. 10 minutes drive from Meishin Expressway Oyamazaki interchange. 30 minutes walk from hillside to hilltop castle.

When consuming a REST API that uses Basic Authentication, it's possible to statically specify the Username and Password (REST API properties and Service Center). However, I've encountered many REST APIs out in the wild that use Basic Authentication not for access to the REST API but for per-app or per-user credentials. As a workaround it's possible to support this with an OnBeforeRequest and adding the Authentication header yourself, but that is pretty cumbersome. It would be very handy if the Platform supports out-of-the-box capabilities for dynamically setting the REST APIs Basic Authentication Username and Password.
Some posibilities:
1) A property "use dynamic Basic Authentication" which if set on the REST API causes every method to have two extra parameters for Username and Password;
2) An action that's exposed throught the REST API (comparable with the way actions are exposed through an entity) that allows setting the Username and Password once for a specific REST API.

Northumbria Police Important Information
Police are warning people to be alert to a phone scam.
Fraudsters, pretending to be police officers, are targeting people over the phone and trying to con them out of their life savings.
Officers are currently investigating three incidents that happened in the Sunderland area but are advising people throughout the region to be on their guard.
The con involves a member of the public receiving a call from a person pretending to be a police officer. This fake officer tells the victim that their bank account is at risk of being hacked and they face having their money stolen.
They are told to contact their bank and withdraw all of the money from their account as soon as possible and that a police officer would come to their house, collect it and take statements.
The fake officer then tells the victim to hang up and ring the local police to confirm that the story is genuine.
The victim ends the call, thinking they have hung up on the 'officer' but the offender does not hang up and keeps the line open and the call going.
The victim then dials their local police and thinks they are speaking to the force, when in fact, because the previous call is still open, they are still talking with the fraudster, who is pretending to be a local police officer and falsely confirms that their bank account is at risk and the 'officer' is genuine.
They then arrange a date and time for an 'officer' to come and pick the cash up and take a statement.
Police are urging people to be on their guard and to take steps to avoid becoming a victim:
- Be aware that fraudsters often use techniques to hold your phone line open, so that when you try to dial out to verify the caller, they intercept and re-answer the call, claiming to be the bank or law enforcement.
-To ensure that your phone has not been compromised, we recommend using a different phone line to verify the caller. Where a second phone line is not available, try calling a family or friend on the line first, as the fraudster will find it difficult to impersonate a voice that is known to you.
- Never disclose your PIN or online / telephone banking log-in information or card reader codes to anyone, even if the caller claims to be from the bank or police. Remember, banks NEVER call and ask you to disclose these security details.
- If you receive a call requesting your PIN, card details or online / telephone banking log-in information, end the call immediately.
- If you receive a suspicious or unexpected call, always verify the caller by taking their phone number and getting it checked independently.
- Ensure elderly relatives and neighbours are aware of the fraud and crime prevention advice.
Report any suspicious phone calls to police straight away on 101
Northumbria Police is giving young people the opportunity to join the force as recruitment for police cadets is opened.
The police cadet scheme is a four-year project that gives participants the opportunity to see what it is like to be a police officer. Those who take part gain great skills and experience, helping to develop their future prospects.
Cadets provide invaluable support to policing teams across the force, from assisting at community events, taking part in crime-prevention initiatives and carrying out online meetings to find out what concerns the community.
Assistant Chief Constable Jo Farrell said: "The cadet scheme is a fantastic way for young people to gain skills and experience they may not otherwise have the opportunity to. The four-year scheme sees young people see what it is like to be a police officer and be involved in the work police officers do as well as work towards the Duke of Edinburgh award.
"Northumbria Police covers a vast area made up of diverse communities and we want to hear from young people from all sorts of backgrounds as they will all have something they can bring to the team and hopefully also find it incredibly rewarding."
For more information about the scheme and how to apply, visit the Northumbria Police website.

Cecil Paul's article on corporate gangs and other articles on this website point clearly to the fact that often what goes down as "business", particularly in Trinidad and Tobago, is nothing more than immorality and criminality.
One could dare the business community to identify a few among them that are not involved directly in the criminal activities of cheating on their VAT, using known dangerous and substandard materials in their products and misrepresenting them as something else or engaging in unjust profiteering as do the motor car and other industries.
They all know from their historical experiences in T&T that no member of the business community has ever been convicted of a crime or is likely to be convicted. There have been cases of business men selling used vehicles as new (remember the Rover car issue), registering cars as motor bikes, selling customers hardware materials at "no Vat" prices and just plain criminality such as selling stolen goods.
What is even more criminal is that these persons are often held up as symbols of success and given national honours. In fact, there is little difference in practice between them and many of the so called "community leaders" who have come to know that although they may face prosecution, they are unlikely to face conviction.
I remember Lloyd Best pointing out, when the last wave of corruption occurred, that none of the accused would be brought to justice. Look at what has happened to Ish and Steve thus far. It was common knowledge that many business properties were owned by underworld figures like Chadee and others.
The story goes that it was then necessary for the state to remove these underworld figures who had extended credit to so-called businessmen in order that the businessmen not be forced to honour their debt. Was it not the chairman of the HCU himself, who stated that while some businessmen (ethnic group given) are engaged in high crimes of fraud and other financial improprieties, those in Laventille and similar communities (ethnic group given) were engaged in crimes against the person?
But one should never read into the present revelations a desire by the state to expose crime in high places. Those criminals were allowed to 'bus' it' long ago, and given the history of criminal conviction among businessmen it is unlikely that they will be brought to answer.
What then is the objective of the government, since the state is an instrument of the elite? The fallen members are useful politically. They can be used to pretend that we are in an era of exposure and to make us believe something is being done. But little will change for in Trinidad and Tobago, there is little ideological differences between criminals and businessmen.

Professor Clare Lyonette
Research interests
I am interested in all aspects of gender and the labour market, including women's career choices and constraints; gender roles and gender equality; the division of domestic labour and childcare; atypical working, flexible working arrangements and new ways of working; the quality of part-time work; motherhood, fatherhood and social class differences; work-life balance, work-life conflict and wellbeing. I am interested in supervising research students with these or related research areas.
Academic profile
I joined the Institute for Employment Research in February 2009 after working at City University, London, on a series of ESRC-funded projects, including an extended project within the Gender Equality Network (www.genet.ac.uk). I use both qualitative and quantitative data in my research, focusing specifically on working time, work flexibility, gender issues within the labour market and work and family issues. Since joining IER, I have been involved in a variety of projects, including an evaluation of the Quality Part-time Work Fund for the Government Equalities Office (GEO). I have co-authored an ILO report on the influence of working time arrangements on work-life balance, and led a Nuffield Foundation-funded project on the higher education experiences and labour market outcomes of student mothers. I was also a co-investigator on an ESRC-funded seminar series on work-life balance and the recession and a co-I on a project looking at work-life balance in the armed forces, funded by the MoD. I recently supervised a research student who was examining work-life balance issues for women in Nigeria. Another is examining the career progression of hospitality workers in Malaysia. Another PhD student is looking at formal and informal flexible working arrangements within the finance sector in the UK, using mixed-methods research.

Attwood calls for rethink on McCreesh Park name
SDLP minister Alex Attwood has said his party's councillors should reconsider their support for a play park being named after an IRA hunger striker.
Newry and Mourne nationalist councillors voted to keep the name as the Raymond McCreesh Park. McCreesh died during the 1981 hunger strikes.
He had been convicted of attempted murder.
The environment minister said people should be careful not to glorify elements of the Troubles.
Mr Attwood said he had asked the councillors over the past 24 hours to look again at their position on the park's name.
"In my view the principle should be, that in going forward, we should not, in any shape or form, be seen to be in any way, putting on a pedestal, those in state or terror organisations that visited such grief and pain on our people in the past 40 years," he said.

(Harrisburg) -- Some Cumberland County high school students are cross-dressing, today, to help raise awareness of transgender people and the issues they face.
The Gay / Straight Alliance club at Camp Hill High School is holding a gender-bender day today, in which they are encouraging fellow students to show their support for the transgender community by dressing as the opposite gender.
Foundation for Hope Founder and CEO Jesse Gantt says the students deserve credit for taking the step.
"The intention of this day, and the spirit of this day, is focused on support for the transgender community," says Gantt. "So I think that's why we can go ahead and applaud their cause and applaud what they're doing their, because it's meant for the right cause."
Foundation for Hope is a midstate-based nonprofit that seeks to support those affected by bullying, depression or suicide.
Gantt says transgender people are some of societies most bullied, and are often the victims of violence. The gender-bender day is being held to mark the conclusion of Transgender Awareness Week.

Yes, my friends, Foul Mouthed Tutorials are BACK, MOTHERBITCHES!
I kinda put them on hiatus for a while cause peeps were pinnin' the shit outta mah tutes *fans self cause that sounds so dirty… CLEARLY it has been a while* and I was CONCERNED that kids would stumble across my little ol' corner of the internets and find new words to call their mothers behind closed doors as they are forced to clean their rooms.
But people are pinning porn, tutorials on how to use a dildo and bible verses so I figure a few motherfuckers while assembling foodstuffs is perfectly acceptable.
So today, because it is school holidays and I am trying to distact Boo from wanting to cook everything from Epic Meal Time, I present you Bogan Burgers.
AKA sliders.
AKA Home Burgers.
These little fuckers are so damn
healthy delicious and nutritious goddamn easy you could slide 2 of them down your gullet with a couple of ciders before you even realise what you have done.
Hand to mouth. It is PRIMAL.
The heroes of mah dish.
Dried onion. Don't be trying to use fresh. Cause then Boo will be digging bits of onion out of his burger and looking at me like 'OMG WOMAN HAVE YOU LOST YOUR EVER LOVING MIND?!' and I am pretty sure there is some nutritional value in these smelly little bastards.
(After opening the onion flakes MPS wandered in. 'Did you fart?' Nope. Onion flakes.)
Seasoning Salt. Absolutely no nutritional value whatsoever. Guaranteed. Probably will reduce IQ and increase homicidal tendencies.
Cheap arse mince. Don't go all fancy and get the low fat pretty shit. Cheap and nasty no star full of fat mince. I freeze mine into 500g portions to make this meal even quicker than Maccas*. You need the full fat stuff to un-dehydrate the onion and ensure a juicy burger.
So you cover the bottom of your pyrex dish with the dried onion…
and then slap down the mince. Season generously with seasoning salt. I have no clue if this is the right stuff cause originally I got the recipe from an American blogger who called them White Castle Burgers, and she got herself a new arse ripped in the comments about feeding her children such horrendously bad food and something about going to hell and Morman elders and I hightailed outta there lest I suddenly got the urge to dress modestly and stop swearing and shit. So this is a cobbled together FROM MEMORY recipe.
Memory. Fuck I am funny.
Chuck that bitch in a preheated 180C oven (I probably should have said something about that earlier… clearly I suck at this tutorialising) for 15 minutes and go and pour yourself a cider while you are unwrapping the plastic cheese.
You know, the stuff that comes in individually wrapped slices and sorta melts with a skin? This is not the time for showcasing the fancy Coon slices or, heaven forbid, the extra sharp Cheddar.
Cheap arse shit cheese on top of your bad arse fat filled mince covered with fuck knows what seasoning salt and dehydrated onion.
After 15 minutes, pull the meat out and if there is an excess of fat try and drain SOME of it off (I use VIVA paper towels because they are awesome**)
Then slap on the cheese. This is going to make 6 sliders, so six slices of cheese (overlapping is AOK cause we are rebels)
Back in the oven to melt the cheese. Watch it carefully cause plastic cheese goes from solid to sorta melted to brown but tastes like burnt to YOUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE GRAB ALL OF THE iDEVICES FIRST! within seconds.
Let it sit for a couple of minutes while you marvel at the skin formed on top of the cheese, trapping all the melty goodness inside.
And then divide into six equal portions.
Fight over who gets the crappy side piece that seemed to shrink a little and then when you get left with the crappy side piece vow to fart on each and every one of those bastards pillows just before they go to bed.
Slap those suckers on some mini hamburger rolls.
Or as the name suggests, SLIIIIIDE… them on some rolls, Bogan.
We like ours with ketchup (true story. Not tomato sauce, actual ketchup cause Boo is American), mustard and a fucktonne of pickles.
Enjoy. And try to stop at one.***
Next time: Tiger Toast, the finest recipe to come from mummy's quiet time while the kids watch Playschool.
Do you have a favourite junk food recipe? Link me up, there are still another 3 weeks of holidays left…
*McDonalds for those non Aussies.
** not motherfucking sponsored. Do you really think they would WANT to be associated with this recipe?
*** sorry there is no assembled photo. I was hungry and am in no way a professional food blogger.

Killing Karma – Part 2
"You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross." Colossians 2:13-14 (NLT)
I started a new series this weekend that I really believe could be the most life-altering series I've ever preached. I'm calling it Killing Karma as I'll be sharing the biblical hope for replacing guilt with a life of grace.
Many Christ followers stay stuck in a cycle of guilt and regret that prevents them from enjoying the undeserved blessings of God. The great news is that Christ killed karma when He died on the cross so that we no longer have to get what our sins deserve. Instead, we get the very blessings we could never earn or deserve. The Bible says that God canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross! "In this way God took away Satan's power to accuse you of sin, and God openly displayed to the whole world Christ's triumph at the cross where your sins were all taken away." Colossians 2:15 (TLB) In this series we'll learn how to appropriate the power of the cross and break free from guilt and live every day in an atmosphere of unending grace. I can't think of a better way to kick off the first weekend of Lent and start preparing our hearts for Easter!

There are days when I want to change my name, go deaf, blind, and run away. Spork out my ears, hide in a closet and cry, instead of hear, "Mom. Mama. Mom. Mommy. Mama. Hey, Mom. Mom. Mooooooooommmm!" one more time. I literally sometimes feel like there are times when I legitimately fear that my logical mind is gone for good. (See? That didn't even make sense. Sanity and all brain lated functions not pertaining to the Jonas Brothers (for Hannah) and Twilight (for me) is long gone.)
I don't know that I ever truly understood how serious motherhood is, how PERMANENT, until I was waist deep in the trenches. I'm not talking about the newborn baby love and amazement, where you somehow survive on coffee and Maury Povich paternity test re-runs instead of sleep. I'm talking the REAL DEAL… tantruming child in the grocery store, having to remove yourself from a public place while people who should understand look at you in disgust, freaking about school systems, or Swine Flu, or ballet lessons… Or worrying about your daughter tagging behind the big kids, and trying to fit in. And I imagine that I'll never stop worrying. Ever.
If I had known the 8,312,523 things that I would freak out about on any given day, I don't know that I would have done it. I don't know that I would have been brave enough, and maybe that's why during Hannah's terrible two's, there were only a handful of people that would admit that they'd been there-done that. Or why when we announced our pregnancy with her, my (normally blunt) sister just nodded. Because SHE FREAKING KNEW. And because if mom's talked about the hardships openly, without being able to reap the benefits at the same time, would anyone in their right mind pro-create?!?
But, thank God no one sat me down and told me how much I'd have to worry about. Or how stressful or mundane some of my days would seem to be… Because, I'm crazy amazed at my life. This sassy little girl, laying up in her bed, playing DS, yelling to me about how I should invest in a kitchen remodel from cupcake decor to roosters – She's MINE. She makes me laugh, and smile, shake my head in amazement and sometimes shock (not to be confused with noddin' my head like "yeah"). Sometimes I see so much of DH and I in her that I want to
scream giggle. And I usually do scream giggle.
So, I get it now. Why no one told me how sleepless my nights would be… How stressful the days could run…How every cough or sniffle would keep me awake… How deeply "I HATE YOU" could cut, even when you know they don't mean it.
Because the rewards are amazing.
Breathtaking, wonderful, astounding, flabbergasting.
Being a mother is God's biggest blessing to my life. And I'm forever thankful, humbled, and sometimes taken aback with how much love, responsibility, and joy God placed on a silver platter for me in the form of my baby girl. It ain't easy, and it for sure isn't for wimps but my God, it's wonderful.

The Standards are neither technical nor prescriptive, but are intended to promote responsible preservation practices that help protect our Nation's irreplaceable cultural resources. For example, they cannot, in and of themselves, be used to make essential decisions about which features of the historic building should be saved and which can be changed. But once a treatment is selected, the Standards provide philosophical consistency to the work.
The four treatment approaches are Preservation, Rehabilitation, Restoration, and Reconstruction, outlined below in hierarchical order and explained:The first treatment, Preservation, places a high premium on the retention of all historic fabric through conservation, maintenance and repair. It reflects a building's continuum over time, through successive occupancies, and the respectful changes and alterations that are made.Rehabilitation, the second treatment, emphasizes the retention and repair of historic materials, but more latitude is provided for replacement because it is assumed the property is more deteriorated prior to work. (Both Preservation and Rehabilitation standards focus attention on the preservation of those materials, features, finishes, spaces, and spatial relationships that, together, give a property its historic character.)Restoration, the third treatment, focuses on the retention of materials from the most significant time in a property's history, while permitting the removal of materials from other periods.Reconstruction, the fourth treatment, establishes limited opportunities to re-create a non-surviving site, landscape, building, structure, or object in all new materials.
Choosing the most appropriate treatment for a building requires careful decision-making about a building's historical significance, as well taking into account a number of other considerations:
Relative importance in history. Is the building a nationally significant resource–a rare survivor or the work of a master architect or craftsman? Did an important event take place in it? National Historic Landmarks, designated for their "exceptional significance in American history," or many buildings individually listed in the National Register often warrant Preservation or Restoration. Buildings that contribute to the significance of a historic district but are not individually listed in the National Register more frequently undergo Rehabilitation for a compatible new use.
Physical condition. What is the existing condition–or degree of material integrity–of the building prior to work? Has the original form survived largely intact or has it been altered over time? Are the alterations an important part of the building's history? Preservation may be appropriate if distinctive materials, features, and spaces are essentially intact and convey the building's historical significance. If the building requires more extensive repair and replacement, or if alterations or additions are necessary for a new use, then Rehabilitation is probably the most appropriate treatment. These key questions play major roles in determining what treatment is selected.
Proposed use. An essential, practical question to ask is: Will the building be used as it was historically or will it be given a new use? Many historic buildings can be adapted for new uses without seriously damaging their historic character; special-use properties such as grain silos, forts, ice houses, or windmills may be extremely difficult to adapt to new uses without major intervention and a resulting loss of historic character and even integrity.
Mandated code requirements. Regardless of the treatment, code requirements will need to be taken into consideration. But if hastily or poorly designed, a series of code-required actions may jeopardize a building's materials as well as its historic character. Thus, if a building needs to be seismically upgraded, modifications to the historic appearance should be minimal. Abatement of lead paint and asbestos within historic buildings requires particular care if important historic finishes are not to be adversely affected. Finally, alterations and new construction needed to meet accessibility requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 should be designed to minimize material loss and visual change to a historic building.

September 26, 2016
(Gilbert, Arizona) –– Just as in a relay race each runner must hold the baton handed off to him by the previous runner, Gilbert High School Principal Christopher Stroud has been running for the last five years holding in his hands an educational baton, one that has been passed on for generations of school leaders throughout the last century.
The baton represents the huge responsibility of managing a school such as Gilbert High, which will reach its 100thgraduating class when the Class of 2017 graduates in May.
Gilbert High was Gilbert's first high school, and was possibly founded approximately 15 years into the 20th century, around a decade and a half after what would become the Town of Gilbert started as an Arizona Eastern Railway expansion in 1902.
The largely farming community named after William "Bobby" Gilbert saw its first high school graduating class in 1918, but the exact year when the school began remains a mystery.
"They don't know exactly when this high school started, nobody seems to know the answer," said Stroud. "The first graduating class was in 1918; you can presume that they were in class prior to that."
Gilbert High sits on the same town that during the 1910s and 1920s was known as the "Hay Shipping Capital of the World."
"The school sits on what it's used to be farmland," said Stroud. "This community of farmers started this school long, long time ago to help their kids have a better life than they did. And that's what everybody wants for their kids."
The new and the shiny
As traditional values and contemporary challenges intersect at the educational cornerstone of Gilbert High, Stroud ponders on what it means to run holding Gilbert High's baton on a 21st century track.
"I am a big believer in tradition being a roadmap for us," said Stroud. "I think traditions are important. We can't forget our roots, what this community was in those times, but this can't be a straitjacket. We have to be able to move forward and serve the needs of our kids in the 21st century."
Accordingly, Stroud said that the school is constantly looking at its own processes and putting students first in the management team's decisions.
"You never can stay the same in this business, because kids aren't the same. Every year they come with a different set of challenges and opportunities, and we need to be ready to grasp that."
Gilbert High offers what Stroud calls pretty unique programs, including a trademark agricultural studies program, one he says no other school in Gilbert or even the West Coast has.
The agricultural class teaches students to slaughter an animal in order to learn butchering skills. Stroud says there are only two or three programs like this in the United States.
"This goes back to when this was an agricultural community," said Stroud. "This building sits on where Neely farms were, the Neely family owned much of this area."
At the same time, Gilbert High students can take an automotive program where they learn the newest technology in motor vehicle maintenance and repair, in a car dealership-class environment.
Both the agricultural and automotive programs are representative of the balance Gilbert High tries to maintain between traditional and contemporary economies where students will find jobs as they continue their path into college.
Little part, big story
As Gilbert High seeks to remain true to its roots and serve the needs of its community, the challenges technology poses for new generations of students who attend this high school create a constant demand for innovation, and Stroud seems to very aware of that.
"It's our job now to really get kids ready for jobs that may not exist right now but that will exist in 20 years," said Stroud. "We live in a world that sometimes is always chasing the new and the shiny."
For Stroud, student success does not consist only in maintaining school traditions and tapping into new technological challenges, but also in instilling in students the basic civic values that produce good citizens.
"Some [students] are going to become doctors, lawyers or business owners, but almost everyone of them is going to be a citizen of this country," said Stroud. "So, how are we preparing them to join us in our society, and to make their own mark and contribution in society. Tigers have been doing that for a long, long time. I am humble and blessed to be one little part of that big story."

The above means that no events are dispatched to trigger the recalculate, revalidate and refresh operations, however there is no mention that the refresh operation does not trigger further events. So my new reading of this is that yes in fact refresh must cause those events (xforms-value-changed, xforms-valid, xforms-invalid, xforms-optional, xforms-required, xforms-readwrite, xforms-readonly, and xforms-enabled, xforms-disabled) to be dispatched upon instance replacement. -ErikReceived on Monday, 15 August 2005 22:35:04 UTC

For Detmar, it was love at first sight. He followed her around the reception and eventually called to ask her to dinner. She said, I'm already booked,' and I said, Please come, Issie.' She had Vanessa Redgrave staying at the house rehearsing Orpheus Descending. I could hear it over the phone, and it was very boring, so she said, Oh, fine, I'll come.' She came in a Pam Hogg lookvery sexy. I was 24! My siblings were horrified. But I knew. I had instinct. I had this girlfriend there who was looking daggers at Issie, by the way. When Issie went upstairs to make a call, I went after her and jumped on her. I wanted to show her where my interests lay. She said, Get off me, you silly Sri Lanki.'
But it was very, very nice. It was more than sex.
Sixteen days later, they were engaged. Or, as Detmar says, So the coat met the hat and they fell in love.
The role Blow played in the fashion industry was often hard to describe. Her formal employment was, mostly, as a fashion editor and brand consultant. Her unofficial role, however, she described as truffle swine. (Though muse works, too.) Her eye for talent was remarkable. First came Philip Treacy, in 1989, when he was still a student and turned up at Tatler carrying a green crocodile hat. Issie was instantly smitten, called the Royal College of Art, where Treacy was studying, and said she was getting married and could he make her a hat, or not so much a hat but a helmet. Treacy did: a gold-lace headdress over a flesh-colored wimple. She wore it with a purple velvet dress covered in hand-embroidered, trompe l'oeil necklaces. The effect was dark medieval, dramatic. They were all thrilled. Blow called Treacy from her honeymoon and said, Why don't you come live in my house and make hats? And so he did.
Three years later, Blow went to St. Martin's fashion college to watch the graduating seniors' projects, and fell so hard for the work of Alexander McQueen that she called him up and said, I know this sounds weird, but I'd like to buy the whole thing. Which she did, in installments. She also got on the phone with every fashion contact she'd ever made and raved about him. As time went on, Treacy would become very successful: Ascot, Henley, every posh wedding a Treacy fashion parade. He does hats for every runway show that has hats, and his office is now a small factory by Battersea Park. And when he moved out, McQueen moved in. Blow was devoted to, absolutely devoted to, McQueen, and vice versa. She continued to beg her connected fashion friends to come see, to support, to photograph, to wear. His talent was evident, and his star rose quite quickly.
And then there were the models Blow had such an aptitude for spotting: She found Sophie Dahl sobbing on a Kensington street corner and thought her beautiful. We all just thought she was a fat teenager, says Plum Sykes.
No one, says Wintour, had an eye like Issie. The more corporate of us look at everything differently than someone like Issie, so whenever I got that phone call that Issie said I should see something, I would go.
People think that fashion is all frivolity and done by people who can't do proper jobs, says the writer Adrian Gill, but Issie understood that it is very, very serious business in terms of civilization and culture. It's the one piece of culture that every single person in the world participates in. Not everybody reads poetry or listens to music, but every single person in the world gets up in the morning and puts on something, and whether you like it or not, that's a statement about who you are.
Blow's own statement was complicated. It spoke of a love for extreme beauty and detail, and of history, and a rare sensitivity to proportion and silhouette. But it's no accident that so many favorite outfits included hats that obscured huge parts of her face. So many of her clothes were so extreme that they actually drew attention away from her and toward a marvelous shoe, or a trim little waistline, or the bust of which she was infinitely proud. I don't use a hat as a prop, she said once. I use it as a part of me. If I am feeling really low, I go and see Philip, cover my face, and feel fantastic. Although, if I'm on a real low, it requires going to the doctor for a prescription.
