Themes and Meanings
(Critical Guide to Poetry for Students)
One of the prominent themes of the poem, perhaps the most prominent, concerns Zen, the form of Buddhism that holds meditation as the primary key to all knowledge, and how Zen compares to Western philosophies, especially those that rely on more analytical approaches to understanding the universe. The circle that Shoichi paints in the first section of the poem is a mystic circle, a Zen symbol for a personal awakening—a sudden awareness or epiphany that bypasses the rational part of the human mind. Such epiphanies often come after meditation.
In section II the poet's meditation on the "laced ice flowers" leads to a vision, a sudden transformation to a meadow, born from the side of a glacier, and the near-death experience of Hakuin "Freezing in an icefield." These associations lead to an identification with Hakuin that is so strong that the poet vicariously experiences leg cramps and such an overpowering feeling of cold that he cannot move. He has been transformed into a state of understanding that is unattainable through simple logic.
In section III the poet presents another conflict between Zen and Western patterns of thought, especially in regard to the physical world. At first the poet tries to make too much of the stone. As he turns it in his hand he searches the stone for metaphorical meanings, perhaps something relating to the sun and the changing of the seasons. To the practitioner of Zen, the stone is itself, a stone, a part of the whole of existence...

Campbellsville University's softball team pounded 12 home runs over the weekend while sweeping both Pikeville and St. Catharine and running its record to 28-5-1 overall and 12-1-1in Mid-South Conference play.
"Would I have thought we'd be hitting the ball the way we are going into the season ... no," said Lady Tiger softball coach Shannon Wathen. "This is one of the best hitting teams I've had. Their off-season work is really paying off right now."
Bailey Dillender had two homers and all four RBI in Saturday's first game win against the Lady Bears.
It seems as if secrecy is becoming the norm rather than the exception in our community's governmental affairs.
Campbellsville City Councilman David Nunery asked last week for a private meeting with Councilmembers and Fiscal Court magistrates to discuss the City and County's budget problems.
And, apparently, he got what he asked for.
Why is it that the older we get, the more we cherish our youth?
It's not that I want to be young again ... heavens no. I've just begun to cherish those memories of years past, which really don't seem quite as old as they really are.
A couple of months ago, I found a friend from 30 years ago on Facebook and, just Monday, I joined an alumni group from the junior/senior high school I attended at Subic Bay Naval Base in the Philippines. My family lived there for two years in the 70s before my dad retired from the Navy and we moved to Campbellsville.
Jackie Bottoms, 15, and Kimmy O'Brien, 14, recently created cheerful artwork with chalk along the concrete wall of Central Plaza.

Invitations to the wedding have been sent.
A Campbellsville man was injured in single-vehicle crash in Green County on Friday.
According to a Kentucky State Police report, George C. Buck, 18, was driving a 1993 Mazda on U.S. 68, just west of Greensburg when the vehicle ran off the left side of the roadway, crossed a ditch and struck a culvert. The crash occurred at 10:37 p.m.
Buck, who was not wearing a seat belt, was taken to Taylor Regional Hospital. He was treated and released.
KSP Trooper David Smith investigated.
Kentucky State Police are searching for a Greensburg man wanted on several sex-related charges.

Novatel Wireless, Inc., a global provider of solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), including software-as-a-service (SaaS), and Mobile Telephone Network Group (MTN), an African telecommunications network operator with 229 million subscribers across Africa and the Middle East, have announced a partnership agreement to offer Ctrack telematics solutions and services to MTN's IoT customer base.
The solution enables MTN's business subscribers to seamlessly integrate fleet management and vehicle tracking solutions using MTN's Pan African IoT SIM cards, enabling businesses to benefit from a single rate for IoT activity across the company's footprint in Africa. In addition, this allows companies with transcontinental operations to easily monitor and track vehicles across borders, according to the companies.
"Given the similarities in the footprints of Ctrack and MTN, as well as the benefits which fleet management and vehicle tracking solutions provide to our business customers, this partnership is a natural fit," said Debbie Minnaar, acting executive for MTN's Group Enterprise Business Unit. "Over and above this, the launch of fleet management services marks the beginning of MTN's journey towards building an IoT ecosystem, whereby services such as fleet management can be leveraged to enable and enhance other offerings related to smart cities, smart health and smart agriculture."
The Ctrack fleet management and vehicle tracking platform for MTN is a combination of hardware, software and firmware that dramatically accelerates the time to market of M2M and IoT projects and enables MTN to layer their added-value components on a reliable ready-to-use infrastructure. Ctrack's extensive network of distributors will provide the in-field support for each country, according to the companies.

CONTROVERSIAL plans to axe a Doncaster fire station crew will put lives at risk, claim union officials.
The Fire Brigades Union (FBU) say the plans to scrap the retained crew at Edlington Fire Station will have a knock on effect throughout the borough.
A report urges fire authority chiefs to give the go-ahead to original proposals which, it is claimed, will represent 'better savings and the least impact on the community'.
Retained crews are part time firefighters who are called in only when they are needed.
Graham Wilkinson regional Fire Brigade Union official said the move would affect the whole of Doncaster putting lives at risk.
He added: "I'm extremely concerned about this as a Doncaster resident and as a firefighter.
"This move will leave just one appliance at Edlington which will mean they will have to rely on Doncaster station for back-up, which in turn leaves Doncaster open to danger with increased call outs and puts lives at risk.
"It will take crews longer to get to the Edlington area from Doncaster and will take away resources from Doncaster station leaving only one back up appliance.
"We've been told one of the problems has been that the public consultation meetings were not very well attended but a lot of people have said they weren't advertised well enough and people didn't know about them."
Mr Wilkinson says the final decision is expected to announced at a meeting on March 26.
Another cut which could affect Doncaster is the scrapping of three roving pumps which provide backup at stations when firefighters are out training.
None of 16 alternative proposals put forward by residents in consultation meetings have been taken up. Brigade bosses say the ideas - which included raising council tax for every South Yorkshire household by £23 a year - would put lives at risk, and cost too much.
Fire chiefs need to save around £10 million before 2015 due to Government cuts. The FBU plans to lobby politicians.
Meanwhile Mansfield Road and Darnall stations in Sheffield, and a retained station in Mosborough, will be closed and replaced with two new bases.
The retained station at Royston will be shut.

Readers in and near Sacramento will enjoy an Internet genealogy program at the next meeting of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Sacramento (JGSS), on Monday, September 14.
Speaker Jerry Unruh will present "Using the Internet for Genealogy," at 7pm, at the Albert Einstein Residence Center, 1935 Wright St., Sacramento.
A longtime member of the Placer County Genealogical Society, Unruh will demonstrate how you can effectively search for ancestors on the Internet. Although the Web contains a vast and growing body of information, not all of it is about our ancestors.
He will show what you can do to find the information you know must be there, and share his own procedures and techniques.
A Loomis, CA resident, he's been researching his family for more than 25 years. Early on, he wrote his own genealogy program when the few available programs didn't meet his needs. Eventually, he switched to Family Tree Maker to more easily exchange data with family members.
He's been a member of the Placer County Genealogical Society for 20 years, and served as president for three years. Currently, he is the society's webmaster, newsletter editor and has been supporting its Family Tree Maker User Group for several years.

He's a former adviser to Maggie Thatcher who has swapped the top job at BP for a seat on the board of an environment group. Murray Griffin meets the outspoken Greg Bourne.
What makes a man leave the top job one of Australia's biggest oil companies to become an environmental evangelist? Greg Bourne, until recently the head man at BP Australasia, doesn't see his departure as a rejection of a working life dedicated to an oil company. Instead, he sees it as a decision shaped by this past.
Bourne has been "like a voice in the wilderness" - one of a handful of business leaders prepared to speak out strongly on environmental issues, says Monica Richter, formerly corporate campaigner with Greenpeace and now with the Australian Conservation Foundation.
She praises Bourne's role in trying to shift business to take more action on climate change, particularly through the Business Council of Australia, which represents Australia's largest and most powerful companies. "He was prepared to put his head on the chopping block," says Richter. "I think he's done a fantastic job."
Bourne's outspokenness came to the fore in two bruising environmental battles - the push to get tougher fuel quality standards (chalk that down as a win) and the push to get business to take more action on climate change (a draw).
Bourne, 54, recently joined the board of the Earthwatch Institute, which works to protect natural resources by building partnerships between citizens, scientists and business. He will also continue chairing the Sustainable Energy Authority of Victoria and CSIRO's environment and natural resources sector advisory council - a juggling act he hopes will leave him plenty of time to spend on the racing yacht he part owns.
In 1960s Perth, when Bourne was a young man with a talent for sciences and an itch to travel, he applied for scholarships with all the big multinationals he could think of so he could eventually work overseas. BP came through, allowing Bourne to become the first person in his family to go to university, and starting a working relationship that lasted more than three decades and took him around the world.
As for the two years spent as an adviser to Maggie Thatcher, Bourne says they were critical in developing his interest in the policy implications of environmental issues such as climate change. Thatcher is famously a shopkeeper's daughter, but she also studied chemistry at Oxford. Britain's permanent representative to the UN during her prime ministership was Sir Crispin Tickell, who in 1977 authored a book on climate change and world affairs - a topic that showed remarkable prescience, but must have struck most people at the time as bizarre.
Bourne says environment groups should take "90 per cent of the credit" for getting the climate change issue on the political agenda, but says the Iron Lady also played a role. "She was one of the first political leaders who actually talked about it as an issue."
Massively increased public scrutiny and changing community expectations of business are key factors driving big companies such as BP to undertake large environmental projects, Bourne readily acknowledges. However, consumer demand was not a key factor in the cleaner fuels push, and he is somewhat sceptical of talk of the buying power of the green consumer.
"In the petroleum business, practically no one pays a cent more for any green attribute of petrol," he says. "And yet, if you buy a white T-shirt made in China that costs $3 and put FCUK on it you can sell it for $40 and they buy that. So the margin people are prepared to pay for cachet and style is so much greater than the margin they are prepared to pay for environmental benefits."
Bourne's strong support for the rapid introduction of tougher Australian fuel-quality standards led to something of a showdown with some other players in the oil industry. "We were very unpopular in the Australian Institute of Petroleum," he says. "And I can assure you there were oil companies that were saying, 'No, don't do that, it's going to cost too much, slow it down, slow it down'."
Bourne's involvement at the corporate level in key environmental debates has led him to conclude Australia's executives are considerably less knowledgeable about sustainability issues than their European counterparts.
In Europe, a stronger tradition of worker participation and the rise of green parties have made it "much more natural" for business and those representing environmental and social interest groups to have "common dialogues", he says. "They've been going on for 20 years." But in Australia, while some companies have a good relationship with some non-government groups, "on a collective basis they do not relate to each other".
Bourne says that lack of dialogue means that, unlike their European counterparts, many Australian business leaders are only comfortable operating in a simplistic "paradigm of dollar-denominated language".
"All of the Europeans I know, and I include UK people in that as well, are just able to handle those conundrums and paradoxes of working with society and environment. It's just how you are. You just understand it."
Leaving BP is a dramatic change for Bourne, who says factors in his decision included his mother's death at 58 and his father's death at 68, which brought home to him that "there are other things to do in life".
"A question I've always asked the engineers who've been working with me (is): 'Are you proud of what you are doing today and are you proud of what you're leaving behind?' And if you can't answer yes to both of those questions you've got a problem."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~ *~Prologue~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Diary of Luke Fon Fabre, Age 7
Remday, Rem-Decan 14, ND2008
I had been studying for hours before Guy came in with a funny look on his face. He looked at me like I didn't have a life. I couldn't help but to scold him. Who did he think he was looking down on? I was the one that planned our secret adventures. Also there is nothing wrong with bettering yourself, one day I plan to change the world. To become a strong leader for the people.
Remday, Rem-Decan 16, ND2008
I had training with Master Van today. It was exciting. I always learn so much from him. I respect my teacher.
When our session ended he asked me to meet him at the port tomorrow night for secret training. He told me not to tell mother and father.
This sounds like fun; I wonder what this secret training is?
Remday, Rem-Decan 17, ND2008
Everything was wrong. When I got to the port a pair of solders dressed in Malkuth armor came and tied my hands behind my back and shoved a dirty cloth into my mouth. I was dragged into a ship and then tossed into a cell. It was so dark.
Master Van…. where were you?
Remday, Rem-Decan 19, ND2008
A man kept coming into my cell. He called himself Dist the Rose, and he made sure I called him that too (not that I ever did). He would do odd things like taking locks of my hair. He often injected me with things or stuck a needle in my arm, taking my blood.
I would ask him why he did all these things, if it didn't end in his irritating, condescending laugher. I hate this disgusting man.
Remday, Rem-Decan 24, ND2008
The ship finally stopped today. When the door to my cell opened I saw Largo and Legretta. Why were they here? Am I being rescued? Is Master Van here too!
I was disappointed to find that he wasn't. They walked me out of the ship to land; we were docked at a beach. I don't know where. When I asked they wouldn't tell me. When I saw them talking to Dist the Dreck, I knew they were not here to rescue me. Not that I needed rescuing….
I don't understand what's happening. Did they plan to keep me for ransom? That's just…. shameless. I yelled at them, Largo and Legretta ignored me. Dist laughed at me.
Remday, Rem-Decan 28, ND2008
I finally know where I am at, it's the Malkuth continent. I know this because we are currently at my family vacation home, Choral Castle. Why did they bring me here?
Remday, Rem-Decan 29, ND2008
Master Van is here! He said that everything was ok; I just needed to listen to him. So I did. He brought me to a part of the Castle I never saw before. It was underground; you could hear the ocean slam across the rocks. There was a huge machine. He told me to lay on the platform in the machine. When I did I could hear Dist laughing at the bottom, when I turned my head to look I saw him pressing several buttons.
The machine began to hum softly. I had a bad feeling then. Fear began to coarse through my body as an eerie green glow wrapped around me. I became very tired, my whole being growing weak. The world soon went black. Did I die?
Remday, Rem-Decan 30, ND2008
I woke up today to find… myself passed out next to me. Who is this kid? I sat examining him for what seemed like hours, he… is exactly the same in every physical way. It was very… unsettling. I am scared. What's going on?
Master Van soon came into the room and took me away. I was handed over to Legretta just outside the Castle. I yelled to Master Van, He smiled and said we would meet again in Daarth.
Remday, Rem-Sorde 06, ND2008
I have been training with Master Van for months now in Daarth. I have learned so much about his ideals, and about the accursed score. It's strange but lately… I have been very angry at everything. When did the world start to look so dark?
Diary of Luke Fon Fabre, Age 15
Remday, Rem-Osdes 11, ND2016
I have been watching that stupid replica take everything I have from me. I hate him. I hate everything. And these headaches, they just don't stop. Does he suffer like I do? Does he understand how much pain I am in? Natalia, Guy, Mother, Father. You, replica, have everything while I have nothing!
You… haha.. have completely taken my place. I hate you. I hate you.
I am not Luke any more. I am not me, you have taken everything. I cannot go back to who I was because of you. They… all love you.
All that's left of me is the ashes of what I once was…. Yes that will be who I am now. My name will be Asch.
Diary of Asch the Bloody, Age 17
Remday, Rem-Ponsec 03, ND2018
I cannot follow Van anymore. Though I agree that score should be demolished, I cannot accept him replacing everything with replicas. I know him; he cannot be swayed to stop. I have no choice but to kill him.
He isn't very wary of my replica. I will use him to kill Van.
Hahaha, if that derk can be of any use at all.
Remday, Rem-Gnome 22, ND2018
That useless replica! He fell right into Van's hands. He destroyed Akzeriuth! All those peopled, dead! Why didn't he listen to me! Why!
Idiotic dreck! Useless!
Remday, Rem-Gnome 30, ND2018
I found him crying on the ground in Yulia. I could feel his denial. Coward. I shoved the reality of what he had done into his face.
It's funny how easily the fool snaps. He got up and fought me; I questioned if I should kill him then… I didn't. I can't explain why. Maybe he was just too pathetic.
He passed out after I won.
I watched him sleep, reaching out into his mind, I dared him to try to control me. I get a… sick pleasure from tormenting him.
Remday, Rem-Decan 02, ND2018
Guy left. Figures he would choose the replica over me. I know Natalia feels the same. It doesn't matter anymore though. I can hear that replica thanking him. When this whole thing is over I am closing this stupid channel. I can't handle him here all the time.
Worthless replica…. why do you insist on making me suffer?
Remday, Rem-Hoced 11, ND2018
Lately, I haven't hated him so much. I don't know. I just don't feel as angry as I used to when I think about him. It's strange. Ever since we stopped the miasma together at the Tower of Rem… or maybe even before that, he stopped looking so irritating. If only he had pride.
He is me… after all.
Maybe my not hating him means I have stopped hating myself?
Remday, Rem-Cerdiff 07, ND2018
I will put this fool in his place! How dare he call himself a person! He is just a replica, a tool to be used! That's all he is! A defective stupid replica! He is not better than me! He is not better than me! I will make him understand! I will make him…. understand…
We will fight at Elderant.
Asch had lost the battle with his replica. For him it was a bitter defeat. He stayed behind, without a weapon, and fought off several waves of solders on his own as not as Asch but as Luke Fan Fabre, only to die after victory, unable to keep his promise to come back alive.
His last thoughts and hopes were left to his replica as he fell back, blood dripping from his mouth.
AUTHORS NOTE: I don't own anything.
Ahh well…. I don't know. After beating the game I am all depressed. Asch had a really shitty life. I can't really do it justice with my writing. But, I will try. At the end of the game they became one? I don't know, that just depressed me more. I want to continue the Tales of the Abyss story with them BOTH ALIVE and as their own person.
Even though I think it's disrespectful, because I have grown so attached to the game (which kinda sucks) I will make this a Yaoi, if people want it that way.
Don't get me wrong though. I like Yaoi. It's the beast.
Does anyone want me to continue? Is it even worth continuing?

Side Kick - Heel Ball or Blade of Foot Strike?
For a side kick, I was taught to turn your foot down so that the ball of your foot at the heel strikes the target. To me, this seems "correct" technique because the striking area is small on the receiver's end and it puts the impact force straight down your leg.
I have also had TKD and Shotokan instructors that tell the students to strike with the blade of the foot for a side kick. The foot is more horizontal this way instead of toes down.
I am not going to relearn how I do a side kick at this point, but I was curious what folks think the mechanics of a side kick these two ways.
5/10/2008 12:17pm, #2
Strike with the ball of your heel. There are several reasons to do it that way. First, that aligns your strike direction with the rest of your leg, and structural support is good. Second, because you have to make your muscles turn the foot down there is no guarantee that you can maintain that orientation during the strike. Third, if you're wearing shoes or boots that do not allow your ankle to twist in that way then you aren't going to be able to do it the way you practice out on the street.
5/10/2008 12:28pm, #3
It seems like turning the foot to strike with the "blade" of the foot would get your foot jammed/screwed up. I once tore ligaments in my foot by falling in that position... non-martial arts related incident.

I know that some Shotokan groups actually teach both (the "blade" version being called yokogeri keage, or "side-up kick", and the heel version being yokogeri kekomi, or "side-thrust kick" -- or something like that). Ignoring various historical notes, the Shotokan group I used to practice with (Canada Shotokan/SKA) had eliminated the "blade" version of the kick, and I've been told that some people fucked up their backs with diligent practice thereof.
I no longer practice karate, but I've long been curious to see the blade version of the kick actually applied. I know from personal experience that you can really rock a bag with the heel version, and that even a small guy can knock the wind out of me with ease whilst going light, but I've never seen anyone hit anything with the blade variation. Anyone here able to compare what it feels like to hit a heavy bag hard with the different kicks?
(On a side note, we were always cautioned, with the heel version we practiced, to get the knee up high and thrust the heel down, or at the least, no higher than the plane defined by the three points of hip, heel, and knee, in the direction of the knee-heel line. There was this guy, we were told, with a habit of kicking "up", who hit a very heavy bag and very thoroughly broke his own knee with the impact...)

I'd say it really depends on what your opponent is doing. Usually, for power and ease of form, I'd go with the ball, but if the guard of the person is tight (but not that tight) I'd throw a bladed side kick instead to hopefully sneak a strike through.

I remember the argument for the usage of either technique was based upon the target. In keeping with the soft/hard principle, the heel was used against hard targets (ribcage, head) and the blade is used against soft targets (throat, stomach)Sumus extra manum tuam.

ANCHORAGE - A presentation today at the University of Alaska Anchorage will serve as an introduction to plans to develop the Pebble mine, a huge copper and gold mine in Southwest Alaska.
The Anchorage Daily News reports the presentation will be about large-scale mining operations around the world and will lead to scientific panels next year about the Pebble project.
The presentation and panels are the work of the Keystone Center, a Colorado nonprofit hired by the Pebble Partnership to lead discussions among everyone affected by the project.
Environmentalists and fishing interest say the mine could threaten the Bristol Bay salmon fishery.

A/N: So I know that the last thing I should be doing is posting another new story but I was going through a book series I read a long time ago and got an idea... Now if any of you have read The Protectors Series by Beverly Barton I will warn you that this story is AU from those books... Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own The Protectors Series...
Lucy was fed up with loving the one man she could never have. As she walked into Dundee's her heart was heavy because she knew that this would be the last time she ever walked through these doors again. She couldn't handle seeing the man she loved day in and day out and not want to throw herself at him. She couldn't handle seeing the blame and hate in his eyes any longer. She also couldn't handle taking what he dished out anymore especially after this last assignment. She shivered as she thought about what happened to her.
As she rode up in the elevator she kept taking in deep breaths and letting them out. As soon as she walked out of the elevator she sighed as she walked past the receptionist desk and straight to her desk. She was relieved that she was the first one into the office because she was hoping to get in and get out before anyone else arrived. She quickly put the things on top of her desk in the box she had brought in with her and then went through her desk and grabbed what was hers and packed it into the box as well.
She looked at her watch and saw that only twenty minutes had passed since she started clearing out her desk. She took one last look at her desk and made sure that she hadn't forgotten anything and then picked up her box and headed back to the elevator. Just as she was pushing the down button for the elevator the doors slid open and she swore.
Daisy rode up in the elevator with her mind on one thing and one thing only. Well her mind was really on one person but she wasn't about to belabor that point in her own head. She couldn't get thoughts of Geoff Monday out of her head and she was wondering if she ever would. As she thought about him she couldn't help but wonder if there has been a time since she met him that she hadn't been in love with him. She really didn't think there was.
She sighed as the elevator doors slid open and then her head snapped up when she heard someone swear and her mouth dropped open in shock when she saw Lucie Evans standing there with a big. "Lucie? What in the world are you doing?"
Lucie closed her eyes on a sigh and then opened them back up. "I'm leaving Daisy. I can't take it here anymore. Sawyer has done everything in his power to make me quit well this time he finally succeeded. On my desk is my resignation and the reason I'm quitting. I'd love nothing more than to have it out with Sawyer but after what I've been through in the last three days I just don't have the strength. You have my number Daisy but I'm leaving town for a couple weeks. I'll call you."
Daisy frowned at Lucie's tone of voice. As she studied Lucie's face she bit back a gasp at what she saw. She knew then that whatever she was going to find on Lucie's desk she wasn't going to like. She nodded and stepped forward and hugged Lucie but quickly let go at Lucie's gasp of pain. "Are you okay Luce?"
Lucie forced a smile. "I'm just fine Daisy. I'll talk to you later."
Daisy nodded and stepped away from Lucie and watched as Lucie entered the elevator. She didn't take her eyes off of the elevator even after the doors slid closed again. She wasn't sure how long she stood there staring at the elevator doors before she finally shook herself and walked to her desk and put her bag on it before slowly making her way to where Lucie's desk was.
Lucie sighed as she walked out of the building that housed Dundee's. She stopped and took in a deep breath and then let out it before slowly making her way to her car. She heard a car coming into the parking garage and she hurried her steps up. Once at her car she quickly opened up her trunk and put the box in it and then closed it and made her way to the driver's door and opened it. As she was climbing in her car she saw the one man she was hoping that she wouldn't have to see. She was only thankful that he was to preoccupied to see her as she backed out and quickly drove out of the garage and out of Sawyer's life.
Sawyer heard a car driving away and he looked up in time to see tail lights disappearing. He frowned and looked around the parking garage and then shrugged his shoulders as he made his way into the building and to the elevator so that he could get to his office. He noticed that Daisy was already in and frowned again as he wondered who the other car could have belonged to.
Once in the elevator his thoughts once again went to the one woman who he shouldn't be thinking about. He sighed and closed his eyes on a groan. All he wanted to do was to stop thinking about her but he couldn't. No matter what he was doing she was in the forefront of his mind and nothing he ever did could get her out of it.
When the elevator opened up onto the floor that Dundee's was on he let out a sigh as he walked out of the elevator. He frowned again when he noticed that Daisy wasn't at her desk like she normally was when he came in. He took a few cautious steps and looked around but didn't see her. He tensed when he heard a gasp and a sob and then he quickly made his way towards the sound. When he turned the corner he came to a stop in shock. "Daisy? Why are you sitting at Lucie's desk holding a letter?"
Daisy looked up from a pale face and held the letter out to him. "She quit Sawyer. She left Dundee's just like you wanted her to. I hope that after you read why you can live with yourself Sir."
Sawyer's mouth dropped open at Daisy's tone but instead of replying to what she had said he took the letter and his own face went pale as he read what was in the letter.
A/N 2: Well that didn't go as planned! LMAO! Click the button and let me know what you think!


text: Hey guys, just been thinking and looking at the ERBE on the Traxxas site. After looking I got thinking, should I get rid of my 3.3 for the ERBE Snap-on? Not that I don't like nitro, but this truck isn't as fun as I thought. What do you guys think? I have my T-Maxx if I want a nitro vehicle.

Other Names:
- Determination of whether less intensive therapy will maintain DFS >= 95% for LR patients randomized to 1 of 2 low-intensity regimens [ Time Frame: Time from end of Induction to first event (relapse, second malignancy, remission death) or date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years ]The 5-year DFS for these patients will be estimated on the 2 low intensity regimens. Interim analysis based on the estimated hazard rate will also be conducted, for each of the 2 low intensity regimens to protect against lower DFS for the LR patients.
- Determination of whether the 5-year DFS in AR patients is adversely affected by the reduced pulses in maintenance [ Time Frame: Every 4 weeks versus every 8 weeks from the start of reduced pulse maintenance, assessed up to 5 years ]If it is found that there is a decrease in DFS due to the reduced pulses, comparison of outcomes between the two MTX regimens will be restricted to the every 4 week pulses arms. A Cox proportional hazards model will be used to test for quantitative interaction in this 2x2 factorial design.
- DFS for B-LLy patients [ Time Frame: Time from end of Induction to first event (relapse, second malignancy, remission death) or date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years ]EFS rate will be estimated for this group of patients. The 95% confidence interval will be computed for the same. Biology data captured for these patients will be summarized.
- DFS for Down syndrome patients [ Time Frame: Time from end of Induction to first event (relapse, second malignancy, remission death) or date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years ]The 5-year DFS for these patients will be estimated on modified therapy.
- Improvement in DFS from 93% to 96% in AR patients based on the methotrexate randomization [ Time Frame: Time from randomization at the end of interim maintenance II to first event (relapse, second malignancy, remission death) or date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years ]All power calculations are based on the assumption of proportional hazards, and using the log rank test (alpha = 5%) with 5 planned analyses of the data for interim monitoring purposes (MTX question for AR patients). The study will also be monitored for futility.
- Burden of therapy in AR patients overall at different time points during and at the end of therapy [ Time Frame: Up to 30 months after beginning of maintenance (off-therapy time point for boys) ]Assessed by the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 Generic Core Scales (PedsQL), the Child Vulnerability Scale, and by the Behavior Assessment Scales of Children-Second Edition, Parent Rating Scale (BASC-2 PRS). Standardized scores for the sub-scales of the PedsQL 4.0 will be calculated using age and gender specific normative data.
- Burden of therapy in AR patients randomized to every 4-week vs every 12-week pulses during maintenance therapy [ Time Frame: Up to 30 months after beginning of Maintenance (off-therapy time point for boys) ]Assessed by the Pediatric Quality of Life Instrument scores, the Child Vulnerability Scale, and emotional symptoms (measured by the BASC-2 PRS), adjusting for age, gender, and family income. Comparison of differences in means (of the continuous measures) between the 2 randomization groups with 2-sample t-tests will be done. If the continuous data are not normally distributed, a non-parametric statistical measure will be used.

- Patients receiving prior steroid therapy may be eligible for AALL0932
Patients with central nervous system 3 (CNS3) leukemia
- CNS status must be known prior to enrollment; (Note: the CNS status must be determined based on a sample obtained prior to administration of any systemic or intrathecal chemotherapy, except for steroid pretreatment); B-LLy patients with CNS3 disease are not eligible for this protocol or the COG HR ALL protocol; it is recommended that intrathecal cytarabine be administered at the time of the diagnostic lumbar puncture; this is usually done at the time of the diagnostic bone marrow or venous line placement to avoid a second lumbar puncture; this is allowed prior to registration; systemic chemotherapy must begin within 72 hours of the first dose of intrathecal therapy
- B-ALL patients with testicular leukemia are not eligible for AALL0932
For B-LLy patients the following additional exclusion criteria apply:
- T-lymphoblastic lymphoma
- Morphologically unclassifiable lymphoma
- Absence of both B-cell and T-cell phenotype markers in a case submitted as lymphoblastic lymphoma
- CNS3-positive disease or testicular involvement
- M2 (5% - 25% blasts) or M3 (> 25% blasts) marrow
- Female patients who are pregnant are ineligible
- Lactating females are not eligible unless they have agreed not to breastfeed their infants
- Female patients of childbearing potential are not eligible unless a negative pregnancy test result has been obtained
- Sexually active patients of reproductive potential are not eligible unless they have agreed to use an effective contraceptive method for the duration of their study participation

I have spent no insignificant period of time over the course of my teaching career looking for the perfect app to act as a digital portfolio for my students. I searched for apps, went to conference presentations about ePortfolios and even tested a couple in the classroom, but never found one that suited my purpose. I could not find an app that was easy enough for young students to use, while being powerful enough for the older students to reflect on their work in detail.
My perfect portfolio app allows students to do the following:
- Store a range of media, including text, videos, images and sound.
- Provides a space for student reflections
- Easy to present during three-way conferences/parent teacher interviews
- Easy to search
- Simple enough for young students to use
When I taught grade 6, Google Drive was fantastic as a digital portfolio, but it was not a whole school solution as it was too difficult for younger students to add content to their folders. I tried a range of 'portfolio' style apps, but they were all disappointing. They either did not work well with other apps or they did not provide students with a space to reflect on their learning.
This year, however, Book Creator has been my teaching lifesaver. It is amazing! Students of all ages can learn to use it, and the features allow it to become as simple or as complex as the student (or teacher!) would like. It works with every app I need it to, and can easily be exported as an iBook to present student work beautifully. Students can search their iBook for a particular piece of work, or particular topic, so you don't need to spend a lot of time searching through pages of work to find a specific piece.
My favourite feature, however, is the ability to 'hide' a sound behind an image. This makes both student and teacher reflections a breeze. Students can place a verbal reflection behind their work, so the image becomes interactive when exported to iBooks – the reader simply taps the image, and the reflection plays! Students can also add a picture of their teacher, or a similar image, to the corner of each section of their book and the same feature can be used to add teacher reflections and feedback.
Overall, I will definitely be continuing to use Book Creator, and will recommend it to other schools. It does exactly what I need it to, easily and quickly. I am very glad I started to use it!
How have you used Book Creator in your classroom? What apps do you use for your digital portfolio?
