Once your student reaches high school, you'll want to start learning about GPA. These letters stand for "Grade Point Average" which is what is used to indicate a student's score at the end of a semester, or an academic year. Homeschoolers use GPA on high school transcripts just like everyone else. So, you'll need to know how to calculate it, too.
(GPA is also used in college, and a future post will have examples of college courses and GPA. Though the process is the same, this particular post talks only about high school.)
Calculating GPA isn't as hard as everyone thinks. First, we'll look at how to calculate it yourself, manually. Later in this post, you'll find links to online tools that will do it for you.
Manual Method
If a high school student took five courses and earned these grades,
Class Letter Grade
English | A |
Math | A |
Science | B |
History | B |
Spanish | B |
you would need to assign each course a numeric grade instead of a letter grade.
Use this as your guide: A = 4, B = 3, C = 2, D = 1
For the example shown above, the grades would now look like this:
Class Numeric Grade
English | 4 |
Math | 4 |
Science | 3 |
History | 3 |
Spanish | 3 |
In high school, most courses are offered for one "credit" each. That is, each of the courses counts as a credit toward high school graduation.
Continuing the example, the number of credits has been added to the table, below:
Class Numeric Grade Credits
English | 4 | 1 |
Math | 4 | 1 |
Science | 3 | 1 |
History | 3 | 1 |
Spanish | 3 | 1 |
As you can see, this student completed a total number of 5 credits.
To calculate the GPA…
- Multiply each numeric grade by its corresponding number of credits, yielding these results, shown in the Product column:
Class Numeric Grade Credits Product
English | 4 | 1 | 4 |
Math | 4 | 1 | 4 |
Science | 3 | 1 | 3 |
History | 3 | 1 | 3 |
Spanish | 3 | 1 | 3 |
- Add up all of the numbers in the products column: 4 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 17
- Divide that sum by the total by the number of credits taken: 17 / 5 = 3.4
This example would yield a GPA of 3.4 for this particular student.
Classes offered for 1/2 credit will work, too. Simply use the number 0.5 instead of a 1 when computing the products.
Note – There is a slightly different calculation for "weighted" courses, such as honors classes, courses taken on college campuses, AP classes, and so on. Since these course are more rigorous, they have a greater GPA value than other high school classes and receive a 1-point increase in their numeric value. Simply use the higher value for that course, and then calculate the GPA as usual.
In this example, if Spanish was an "Honors" course, instead of using a 3 for the numeric grade equivalent of B, use a 4 instead (B=3, plus the additional 1-point bonus, which equals 4). Remember, this is only for advanced coursework that merits the "weighted" score.
Online Method
If this all still seems confusing, not to worry. You'll find dozens of online tools to help calculate GPA.
Try these, or find some on your own:
Donna Young's GPA Calculating Spreadsheet
When using a GPA calculator for weighted courses, make sure that the calculator takes the increased point value into account.

When I do a workshop or keynote for parents, I usually begin by asking those present to raise a hand if they are parents. They look at me dumbfounded, and everyone raises a hand. Then I ask them to raise a hand if they also happen to be teachers. A few people raise their hands. Then, I look dumbfounded. "Wait a minute. Let me try that again. Raise your hand if you are a parent?" All the hands go up. "OK. Now raise your hand if you are a teacher?" The penny drops and all hands go up for a third time.
Cathleen P. Black, the Chancellor-in-waiting for the New York City public school system, and the mayor who tapped her for the job, have come under a lot of criticism because she is not an educator. Many are thumbing their nose at the idea that someone can hold the reins of one of the largest school districts having never had to file a lesson plan, correct a test, or run a faculty meeting. That's because Ms. Black's career has been in the field of publishing, much of that as a high-powered, ground-breaking executive. She also happens to be the mother of two adopted children.
I have already alluded that her being a parent qualifies her as a teacher. And I am sure that as a publishing executive she has had to assess a few manuscripts, teach a few lessons, and create an agenda--the end result in each case being the informing, if not the educating, of thousands of people. Ms. Black has had more than her hand in Ms., New York, and USA Today.
I guess the issue I have is how the criticism implies those in the business of schooling have a closed grip on education. Please do not misunderstand me. I am not among those who think that if only business people ran our schools, all would be well. Ms. Black will have much to grasp about schools on the job. And I applaud the waiver that required Ms. Black, in order to accept the position, to appoint a Chief Academic Officer (nice title) who once had to clean mimeograph fluid off his fingers. But to deny that someone of Ms. Black's experience and skills can't steer the Ship of Schools because she has never had to brush chalk dust off her blazer is, hands down, too narrow-minded for me.

The Year in Pictures: 2010
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla
Topics: pretty pictures, Cassini, amateur image processing, Saturn, Saturn's rings
I've just posted my annual roundup of significant images from planetary exploration in 2010. I make no claims for these being the "best of 2010" -- the images are selected more to mark significant events in 2010, though I confess some are just chosen because they're spectacular. And anyway, this is space exploration; I think all the images are spectacular.
If you are a Planetary Society member, this article expands upon the "Year in Pictures" feature that you saw in the November/December issue of The Planetary Report. That article went to press in early September so there are lots of additional pictures at the bottom, including this incredible one from Saturn only days ago:

My Complete, Entirely Free, On-Line Comedy Class
If you have ever wanted to try standup comedy, and you were thinking about paying the hundreds of dollars that standup teachers charge for their classes, please stop for a second. Consider taking my on-line course instead. I think it will work at least as well as any for-pay class out there. The best part is, if it doesn't help, it will have cost you absolutely nothing to try it. If you still want to pay someone money after that, you are free to do so.
Here, all in one place, edited and re-written for clarity, is my Entirely Free Comedy Class. It works like this: Starting with the top link, you read one entry a week, and then put the instructions into practice at your local Open Mics. After a week, or after you have gone up at least three times if that's not possible in seven days, you read the next one. Repeat for twelve weeks.
The essays are a mix of instruction in both writing and performance, followed by links to videos of great comedians with a series of study questions.
The first goal of the class is to get you a five minute set that you can do at a showcase with confidence. Second, to give you a process for perfecting jokes and improving your stage performance that you can use as long as you do comedy.
I focus on basic fundamentals. I don't tell you what to write or talk about. I wanted a course that would help you with any style you might choose.
So why not click on Week One and get started? The twelve links are all of the Weeks in order. The last link has the answers to the Video questions if you get stumped. I ask you to please try and answer them on your own before peeking though. You will get more out of it that way.
Anyway, here it is. Hope it helps. Write me with any questions and I will answer them here. Kill 'em!

example sinusoidal day 2.pdf - Section 2: Graphing horizontal shifts
Graphing Sine and Cosine Functions (Day 2 of 2)
Lesson 6 of 13
Objective: SWBAT graph by hand sine and cosine graphs with transformations
Bell Work
Today we'll continue our work with graphing sinusoidal graphs. Today we will focus on horizontal (or phase) shifts. When the class begins I'll give my students a task that asks them to explain the difference between y=sin x and several different transformations of this function.
I expect many of my students to quickly state that the first problem has an amplitude of 3. When they make this observation, I will try to bring them back to the prompt by asking, "How is this different than y=sin x?" The students will need to revise their explanation to state that the maximum is at 3 instead of 1. They know that the 3 represents the amplitude, but I want students to answer the question directly, rather than implicitly (MP6). Once students see how to answer the questions the other problems go smoothly.
When students discuss Questions 3 and 4, some will say the frequency has changed while others will talk about the period. I will listen to these conversations to make sure that they are on track. If necessary I will refer back to the frequency activity. I'll try to ensure that students understand that "2" in Question 3 refers to 2 cycles over a distance of 2 pi radians. "1/2" in Question 4 means that one-half of a cycle will be completed over the distance of 2 pi radians. I believe that if a student understands that only 1/2 of a cycle is in 2pi, they will be better able to visualize the function and create a graph more accurately.

Graphing horizontal shifts
Now that students have seen how to graph when the following parameters are changed, we are ready to discuss a phase change or horizontal shift:
- amplitude
- midline
- period
I will start by writing the function y=2sin(x-pi/2) on the board. I will ask my students to identify the key features of the graph of the function.
My students will undoubtedly use technology on calculator or phone to help them. To help understand the horizontal shift, I will ask "If the position of the graph is moving to the right, what is happening? " We will approach the idea of a phase shift slowly. I expect we'll start with an understanding like, "a period starts at pi/2." From here we will look at a graph together to discuss and to verify students observations.
As students gain a general sense of how to proceed with a phase shift, I will give them some some problems to work. My plan for this work is flexible, but I plan for students to share their results with the class. As students work, I will ask questions such as:
- Have you identified the key features?
- Where will the cycle start?
- What is the distance between the start and end of the cycle?
- How are you going to divide the interval? What are the x values in the interval you have marked?
Resources (2)
Complex transformations
The final two problems will be difficult for my students. The first function includes all of the transformations that we have discussed. Students sometimes are confused by the fact that the vertical shift is at the beginning of the expression. But, it is important that students see different ways to write the equations so that they do not get the misconception that the vertical shift is always the last number in the equation.
The final question is written differently than other problems I have posed. Some students will not at first realize that there is a difference. Others will immediately realize that the expression (3x-pi) needs to have a 3 factored out, but are unsure of how to do this. I plan to let the students identify the key features. Then, I'll put the graph on the board. As I look at the graph I will ask my students if their graph looks the same. It usually takes a minute or so for my students to realize that the horizontal shift is not what they determined. Once they reconize this fact, I'll ask why that might be. I may need to remind students that our general equation is y=a sin b(x-c)+d and then question whether the equation is of the same form.
Once students see that it is not exactly the same we discuss how to factor the 3 out of (3x-pi) to get 3(x-pi/3). From there student see how the horizontal shift is pi/3 to the right. I explain that many books and instructors write the general equation as y=a sin (bx-c)+d. We then discuss how the only difference with the different forms is finding the horizontal shift.

For homework I assign page 327 #44, 50, 58 from Larson's Precalculus with Limits. There are a lot of problems in the book that the students can do. I picked 3 just to check for understanding. These will be turned in to me tomorrow to assess student understanding.
I will ask my student to write out the process they used to graph a function as an Exit Slip. I will analyze their responses to see where students are struggling. Students will have different processes. I am interested in seeing how they explain their identification of the key features. I am also hoping for a clear explanation of how to use the key features to sketch a graph.

Inadequate buses slow and always full
I live in Lung Tak Court, Stanley, and I find the buses serving residents to be inadequate.
Every morning at 7.50, I leave Lung Tak Court and go to Central. Although it is a double-decker, all the seats are taken when I board. And I get on at the second stop after Stanley Plaza. Even though this bus operates every 20 minutes, it cannot satisfy the demand of residents. It takes 40 minutes to get to Central. The trip could easily be completed in 30 minutes. The bus frequency should be cut from 20 minutes to five minutes.
During the rush hour there is another bus, the No 262, but it is of little use to us as it is too expensive at $10. Also, it is only a single-decker and takes at least 40 minutes to get to Central.
Another bus which cannot meet residents' demand is the 973, to Tsim Sha Tsui. It takes at least 1.5 hours to reach its destination, a journey that could easily be done in 45 minutes.
I don't want to hear any excuses from New World First Bus. Other transport operators in Stanley (the minibuses and Citybus' No 6) are efficient. If New World First Bus has insufficient resources to operate in Stanley, then Citybus or the minibus company should be allowed to take over the routes.

All about SXD
Southern Cross Divers
Leaders in "Technical" Diving
Please note: We only teach courses from these technical training agencies IANTD and IART ... sorry but we do not teach recreational training from mainstream agencies at all !
SXD is best known for rebreathers and we offer a "total package" approach to these kind of units. We will not stock a unit unless we can offer the customer a complete solution to all their rebreather needs. Every unit sold is backed up with thousands of dollars worth of in store spares coupled with sound servicing skills.
Full training to all levels is offered and all CCR consumables are on hand to meet the customer's needs. Located on the very waters edge at the Spit, on the way to Sydney's Northern Beaches, SXD is ideally located for training from the basic mod 1 CCR level right up to the full tri-mix mod 3 instructor trainer level. We have our own dive charter vessel that picks you up from the shop and can whisk you away to the wrecks at Long Reef in round 40 minutes or to the deeper wrecks off Bondi in about 45 minutes.
The facility also offers some of the most exciting dive tours available and regularly offers trips to the South China Sea, Java Sea, Gulf of Thailand and now Sri Lanka, looking for and diving the best wrecks these waters have to offer. In the last 12 months we have taken tours to dive the following WWII warships: HMS Repulse, HMS Prince of Wales, HMS Exeter, HMS Encounter, HMAS Perth, HMLNS De Ruyter, HMLNS Java, USS Houston and now the HMS Hermes the worlds first purpose built aircraft carrier .
If you are interested in rebreathers and wish to speak to someone about various units etc. Then we are more than willing to spend some time with you and discuss all the pros and cons about each unit and advise which one would best suit your particular needs.
SXD retails most CCR units but we specialise in the APD, Jetsam, rEvo and the MK15.5 range of units but, can also offer training on Poseidon's new MKVI and the Diverite Optima if required. We are always increasing our knowledge base and will soon be able to offer training in the new JJ-CCR.
Southern Cross Divers (SXD) was founded almost 20 years ago and from the very earliest days we have been involved with the now soundly established but, then newly emerging area of diving known as "Technical" diving. We were only the second shop in Australia, after Bob Cason's pioneering Fun Dive, to introduce Nitrox and this was quickly followed up with us offering Tri-mix to our growing customer base of adventurous divers.
As time has moved on, SXD has also moved further and further away from being a normal run of the mill recreational dive store and has developed into Australia leading technical diving facility. This movement has progressed to such a point that we are now currently Australia's only dive facility solely offering technical diver training, equipment and services. SXD does not offer any non technical courses and does not stock general non-technical diving equipment, we are totally geared to technical/cave/wreck diving.
The technical diving market has continually grown over the past ten years with both mainstream training agencies like PADI or SSI now offering "Tec" courses. Even mainstream equipment manufactures are now starting to offer and meet the specialised needs and requirements of technical divers.
Very early on SXD realised that the ultimate experience in technical diving lay in the rebreather area and in 1993 we brought in our first CCR unit, a Drager FGG III, an ex-military unit. This was to be the start of a long and successful relationship with rebreathers for us. This move was quickly followed with the bringing out to Australia from the UK of the then technical diving expert Rob Palmer. Rob quickly brought SXD up to speed with all the new emerging technical and cave diving methods. Whilst he was here in Australia he further increased SXD's knowledge of rebreather units by conducting several instructor rebreather courses on the then new Drager Atlantis SCR.

2011 Has Been a Great Year
Our site hasn't gotten much love in 2011, but behind the scenes we've been killing it launching great projects for our clients. Since none of this stuff is yet featured in our work, I wanted to take a minute to highlight some of our big web projects.
read more...HTML and CSS Parsing Engines and Preprocessors
I came across an article on Smashing Magazine on the LESS CSS parsing engine, and I just don't understand our need to complicate what is a relatively simple, straight-forward language.
LESS claims to produce "leaner" CSS code, but you're adding a language and a compiler on top of your standard CSS documents. HAML does something similar for HTML. The beauty of programming is that any two people can come at a problem with entirely different answers and both essentially be right, but I can't help but see these parsing engines as a fix to the inflexibility of either CSS or HTML to be wrong.
Investing in Understanding
Many clients come to us with misconceptions about what they need, latest buzzwords in tow, eager to be part of the social networking revolution without really knowing what that means and how it applies to their business. To put it bluntly, they are ready to waste their money.
read more...Good is Real
Where in the past a logo was the receptacle into which all controlled and carefully crafted marketing was poured, now it is simply a supplement to the real brand, which lives in the collective consciousness, and in the ceaseless flow of information available on any company (or individual).
read more...Design is in the Bones
Like the blueprints for a house, design must flow throughout. Beyond simple aesthetics, it is the bones of a good project, guiding the user, informing functionality. If this is done without much thought, the result will be superficial and off-putting, if you have not planned properly, your house will not stand. Paula Scher at Identity Forum makes an excellent case for good planning.
read more...We love ExpressionEngine
We recently unveiled our new company web site. We chose ExpressionEngine as the platform to drive the site because of the complete control it allowed us of every aspect of the site. The level of craftsmanship possible in every detail is something most CMS platforms take a lot of effort to match.

Tweakers' Asylum Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ. |
In Reply to: Is there any agreement about the best RCA plugs? WBT, Furatech? nt posted by Norm on December 30, 2006 at 08:36:26:
About a month ago I decided to do a test on one of my VH Audio Pulsar digital cables. All of my interconnects, digital & analog, are Cryo Pulsars terminated with Eichman Silver Bullet plugs.I purchased a pair of WBT Silver Nextgens, from Parts Express, for a test on one digital calble. Cable runs between my Motorolla digital cable box & Meridian G68 pre/pro.
I found the Silver Nextgen to be very nicely designed and easy to install. Much better than the Bullet plug design.
Upon installation of the newly terminated Nextgen / Pulsar digital cable, I immediately noticed a few things: Bass was tighter & stronger, more inner detail, better imaging. I liked what I heard.
I have 15 additional Silver Nextgens on order from Parts Express to eliminated all the Silver Bullet plugs (except subwoofer interconnect) in my system.
I am thinking about replacing my Cryo Pulsar analog wire with something else, but not sure what to go with. I think the Cryo Pulsar wire is fine for digital interconnect.
Just my opinion of what I heard in my system.

Budgetary Turmoil at DoD from 2010 to 2014: A Personal and Professional Journey
Booz Allen Hamilton Fellow and former Department of Defense (DoD) Comptroller Robert Hale has authored a new paper, Budgetary Turmoil at DoD from 2010 to 2014: A Personal and Professional Journey. The paper, published by the Brookings Institution, examines ongoing budgetary turmoil at the Department of Defense from Hale's perspective serving as the comptroller and chief financial officer for DoD from 2009 to 2014.
Drawing on his own experiences, interviews with key personnel inside and outside the Department, media coverage, and analyses by outside organizations, Hale documents the budgetary turmoil and the problems it created for DoD and its employees and contractors. Working under the guidance of the Secretary of Defense and his Deputy, Hale coordinated many of DoD's efforts to accommodate the turmoil that unfortunately continues today.
Learn more about what contributed to the budgetary turmoil, how it affected the Department's mission success and employee morale, and what should be done by downloading the full paper.

From "Just Follow The Doctor's Orders" To Patient Engagement: A Cultural Transformation In Health
Not that long ago—as recently as 30 or 40 years—patients did what their doctors said: they followed doctor's orders. And, frankly, so did the nurses, techs, and everyone else—no questions asked. But times are changing rapidly, and now patients and providers have very different expectations of one another.

Can we ban this troll yet?
Wrong about what? I will admit that I am wrong if they play and Geno isn't the best qb out of the class. When did we ever argue about where he was going to be drafted? The argument was always about what type of player he would be.
Alex Smith was drafted before Aaron rodgers, Aaron rodgers went all the way back to 24th. Who is the better qb?
Yep I did defend him and I still do to the extent that Romeo and Daboll were far more the problem then him.
But Alex Smith is not Matt Cassel And Alex Smith has done more then Matt Cassel has in the NFL Alex doesn't deserve to be judged on what Matt Cassel did or did not do. Alex Smith is Alex Smith and to judge him as a Chief before he plays one down in KC is like judgeing Geno right now. You can't do it and be fair
Call me crazy but I don't rember you really being in front of Crennel. In fact I remember being in back in forths with you where you were saying "if we had a QB" and I was the one talking about the coaching.
Oh and the famous Mccluster wasn't going to play
Geno being the cant miss number 1 pick
Like it or not you have been wrong my man
When did you call out the previous regime? You were a believer, I wasn't. You have to admit I have been right about A TON of things, even matthewschiefs would agree to that.
But I am going to ease up, I said I would be back when the season started and I did. Now I will be back when the first preseason game starts.
You were wrong about this team being stupid for not taking him. Unless you're going to say Every team in the NFL is stupid and you no better then every GM in the NFL since everyone said no thanks to him. Man up my man it's ok no one's perfect you were wrong about just how good Geno was at West virgina. If he was as good as you claimed he was someone would have taken him.

Charles Evans is the ninth president and chief executive officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. He tweeted the following on Tuesday, November 19:
"Our purchases will continue to be open ended. We may need to purchase 1.5 trillion in assets until January 2015"
As a Federal Reserve president Mr. Evens is fluent in the art of sending cryptic messages. The above tweet is no different.
Deciphering the Modern Day Enigma
What could Mr. Evans have meant? Currently the Federal Reserve is buying $85 billion worth of assets per month. That's $1.02 trillion per year or $1.19 trillion until January 2015.

I tried to jailbreak ipad ios version 3.2.2 with limera1n, it said all i have to do is power up the ipad and download cydia, but nothing will happen. The screen stays completely black! I have tried charging it and then trying to start it by holding down home and sleep, but nothing is working!!! Please hep me... asked 10 May '11, 21:21 bworsham |
Holding home+power should do it, how long have you held the buttons? A black screen is not recovery mode, you're likely in DFU. Recovery shows the iTunes>USB graphic. answered 10 May '11, 21:23 spockers ♦♦ I guess it is in DFU, but i have held home and power for a long time and all that happens is that there is a quick change of brightness then it turns black again.
(10 May '11, 21:27)
Release the buttons as soon as the screen flashes like that.
(10 May '11, 21:28)
Hmmm.. need a little more info. Was it jailbroken before? After limera1n finished, it should have simply rebooted, did limera1n have any errors? Are you on Windows or Mac?
(10 May '11, 21:30)
spockers ♦♦
the reason i thought it was recovery mode is because when it was plugged up to my pc iTunes recognized the ipad, said it was in recovery mode, then wanted me to restore it. I tried to restore it but it didn't work, probably for the same reason it wouldn't complete the updates to newer firmware.
(10 May '11, 21:32)
iTunes calls recovery mode and DFU mode "recovery." Have you updated iTunes?
(10 May '11, 21:33)
spockers ♦♦
it wasnt jailbroken before, i was in the process of jailbreaking it, and it wouldnt reboot
(10 May '11, 21:33)
yes, but it wont let me update the ipad
(10 May '11, 21:34)
Have you updated iTunes?
(10 May '11, 21:34)
spockers ♦♦
Yes i have updated iTunes.
(10 May '11, 21:36)
Mac or Windows?

When you try to restore in iTunes, what error number does it give you?
(10 May '11, 21:41)
spockers ♦♦
i'm pretty sure it kept saying my connection times out, but i know that it didnt
(10 May '11, 21:42)
Click this: gs.apple.com Do you get a TSS page, or an Apple 404 page?
(10 May '11, 21:43)
spockers ♦♦
Double-check that you don't have an entry for gs.apple.com in your hosts file, and try using a different computer.
(10 May '11, 21:44)
i clicked on the link but it said page not found???
(10 May '11, 21:47)
It says "Hmm, the page you're looking for can't be found," right? I was just verifying that your hosts file isn't pointing to cydia.
(10 May '11, 21:51)
spockers ♦♦
Yes, that's exactly what it says. btw I'm sorry i am so clueless
(10 May '11, 21:52)
That's alright, this site wouldn't have much traffic if it weren't for the clueless. :P Your hosts file is fine, at least we know that much. Now open iTunes, click the Restore button, and if it gives you an error, tell me what it says, and the error number if there is one.
(10 May '11, 21:58)
spockers ♦♦
There is no error number, but the notification says " There was a problem downloading the Software for the Ipad "Ipad" the network connectin timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
(10 May '11, 22:07)
and it said that same thing when i tried to update my firmware
(10 May '11, 22:09)
There must be something wrong with your internet connection to Apple then, or their servers are having issues. If you want to restore to 4.3.3, I can walk you through it, using a different method. If you've never run TinyUmbrella to save your SHSH's, you can't restore to any version other than 4.3.3 anyway.
(10 May '11, 22:11)
spockers ♦♦
can i estore it even thought the whole screen is black?
(10 May '11, 22:14)
and if not how can i get my ipad out of DFU mode?
(10 May '11, 22:15)
Get your 4.3.3 firmware here. Open iTunes, hold down the shift key on your keyboard, and click the Restore button. A dialog box will pop up, go to where you downloaded the ipsw and select it. Hopefully this will work. Once it's done, get redsn0w rc16 here.
(10 May '11, 22:16)
spockers ♦♦
Yes, you can restore while in DFU. When it's done it should boot normally.
(10 May '11, 22:16)
spockers ♦♦
ya its gonna be a while... sorry, my computer is kinda slow
(10 May '11, 22:23)
No prob, I'll be around for awhile, and if not, someone else will be.
(10 May '11, 22:28)
spockers ♦♦
it failed over half way through because it aid the file could not be read
(10 May '11, 22:29)
Ah, well there's the reason it wouldn't work through iTunes. You obviously have network issues. Do you have another computer you can try, just to rule out the possibility that it's something on your PC?

(10 May '11, 22:38)
spockers ♦♦
I am confused, it wants me to type in a file name?
(10 May '11, 22:40)
Ya the first try failed but the second try worked
(10 May '11, 22:41)
No, you don't type it in. Just go to where it downloaded and it should show up. If it doesn't, then your browser renamed it to a zip file (common problem). If it doesn't show, post back and I'll tell you how to fix it.
(10 May '11, 22:45)
spockers ♦♦
wait... i don't know where it downloaded, as far as i know it just downloaded under downloads, then i opened it
(10 May '11, 22:49)
wait i found it, now what?
(10 May '11, 22:50)
Do i click open and then download redsn0w?
(10 May '11, 22:51)
Yes, well you click open and iTunes will restore the iPad, which will take a few minutes. Download redsn0w in the meantime but don't run it until iTunes is done, because it will immediately close iTunes when you run redsn0w.
(10 May '11, 22:54)
spockers ♦♦
wait nevermind
(10 May '11, 22:55)
the one i almost opened was iPad1,1_4.2.1_8C148_Restore, not iPad1,1_4.33_Restore_ispw.
(10 May '11, 22:57)
That won't work unless you have SHSH's for 4.2.1, and have your hosts file pointing at cydia, which you don't.
(10 May '11, 22:59)
spockers ♦♦
ts not there (sigh)
(10 May '11, 23:00)
It is not there (sigh)
(10 May '11, 23:01)
Look in your browser's settings for the location it puts downloads in.
(10 May '11, 23:01)
spockers ♦♦
(10 May '11, 23:03)
i have the little pop up that shows my history and that i right click to open the file, butthat doesnt seem to do anything
(10 May '11, 23:04)
the download history that is
(10 May '11, 23:05)
What browser are you using?
(10 May '11, 23:05)
spockers ♦♦
I use Mozilla Firefox, and i all that i see is a little pop up with my download history
(10 May '11, 23:06)
Firefox is the best, that's what I use. Go to Tools/Options and then the General tab. Download location is on that tab.
(10 May '11, 23:10)
spockers ♦♦
i saw where they were saved to but tere were only two files that were very old, not the firmware file
(10 May '11, 23:13)
none of the tings have downloaded are in the downloads folder
(10 May '11, 23:16)
That's bizarre. Right-click this link, choose "Save link as" and put it on your desktop so it'll be easy to find.
(10 May '11, 23:18)
spockers ♦♦
it said "the file could not be restored because the firmware is not compatible" when i tried to open it
(10 May '11, 23:22)
Then your iTunes is too old. What version is it? In iTunes, click Help/About iTunes from the top menu bar.
(10 May '11, 23:24)
spockers ♦♦
10.2.2.14 o
(10 May '11, 23:27)
(10 May '11, 23:27)
Whoah... OK, then either the ipsw is corrupt (what's the file size anyway) or you have an iPad 2.
(10 May '11, 23:29)
spockers ♦♦
This is crazy, I have iTunes 10.2.2.12, and iTunes says that's the latest version.
(10 May '11, 23:30)
spockers ♦♦
i have the ipad 1 and the file size is 593 MB
(10 May '11, 23:31)
woah dude thats weird 0.o
(10 May '11, 23:34)
That's the right size. It must be corrupt.
(10 May '11, 23:35)
spockers ♦♦
maybe I'm not ment to have an up-to-date iPad, well can you tell me how to get my iPad out of DFU mode?
(10 May '11, 23:37)
Just checked, iTunes latest is 10.2.2.14, I guess it's just not offering it to me because it's a very minor update from 10.2.2.12.
(10 May '11, 23:38)
spockers ♦♦
Have you tried iREB? Get it from ih8sn0w.com, open it, choose the "Recovery mode loop fixer" tab and click the big "Set auto-boot true" button. I know it's not in recovery loop, but this may work.
(10 May '11, 23:41)
spockers ♦♦
i try to download it and all it says is that my download expired
(10 May '11, 23:44)
nevermind, third try i got it
(10 May '11, 23:45)
It does that, just try it again. I've had to try as many as 3-4 times.
(10 May '11, 23:46)
spockers ♦♦
all it says is sating but nothing is happening
(10 May '11, 23:47)
second try got it working
(10 May '11, 23:48)
i opened i REb-r4.zip, but i don't see a way to select recovery mode loop fixer, i don't even see recovery mode loop fixer
(10 May '11, 23:51)
It's a tab at the top.
(10 May '11, 23:52)
spockers ♦♦
which tab,add, extract to, test,view delete find, wizard info repair
(10 May '11, 23:54)
LOL, no no no. Extract the exe from the zip, or just double-click it.
(10 May '11, 23:56)
spockers ♦♦
but i double clicked it and the same thing same up
(10 May '11, 23:57)
Have you never downloaded a zip file before? Open the zip. You will see iREB-r4.exe inside. Double-click that.
(11 May '11, 00:00)
spockers ♦♦
By the way, where did you get limera1n? I think you might've downloaded a virus. Do you have the link from where you downloaded it?
(11 May '11, 00:02)
spockers ♦♦
(11 May '11, 00:05)
Well, my day starts in 5 hours so i must sleep you have been very kind and patient but we must finish this tomorrow.
(11 May '11, 00:06)
OK, good luck. I'd recommend plugging your iPad in to the wall charger, make sure it's got a topped-off battery when you start tomorrow.
(11 May '11, 00:08)
spockers ♦♦
ok so i'm back and the ipad has been charging all night, but nothing is different, so how can i get it out of DFU mode?
(11 May '11, 17:55)
I'm in and out for a bit, I'll be back in a few. Did you run iREB?
(11 May '11, 18:21)
spockers ♦♦
i couldn't run it as a exe?
(11 May '11, 18:22)
i think i just got it
(11 May '11, 18:24)
yep now i just have to go to itunes and run the 4.3 firmware, i'll post if something goes wrong
(11 May '11, 18:26)
i didnt do the firmware because i couldnt but i did select recovery mode loop fixer
(11 May '11, 18:37)
nothing has worked :(
(11 May '11, 20:13)
Did iREB get you out of DFU?
(11 May '11, 20:27)
spockers ♦♦
(11 May '11, 20:37)
i dont think so
(11 May '11, 20:37)
If the screen stayed black, it didn't.
(11 May '11, 20:45)
spockers ♦♦
ya its still in DFU mode..
(11 May '11, 20:47)
Is it showing up in iTunes? If so, what error do you get if you try to restore? answered 11 May '11, 20:49 spockers ♦♦ yes its showing up in iTunes it says " There was a problem downloading the Software for the Ipad "Ipad" the network connectin timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." but when i looked at the failed software pdate it said err-3259
(11 May '11, 21:12)
What anti-virus software do you have installed?
(11 May '11, 21:19)
spockers ♦♦
(11 May '11, 21:26)
From what I'm reading, either your antivirus software or your firewall are interfering with the download. Try disabling AVG and Windows firewall, temporarily, and see if it lets you restore.
(11 May '11, 21:28)
spockers ♦♦
will do
(11 May '11, 21:30)
I used to have AVG... All jailbreaks worked, though it likes to block programs packed with themidia.
(11 May '11, 21:34)
JonSeals ♦
it didnt do anythng, but that might be because i wasnt able to turn off the virus protection
(11 May '11, 21:43)
We're not concerned with jailbreaking yet, just getting it running, stock.
(11 May '11, 21:48)
spockers ♦♦
You weren't able to turn it off??? I used to use AVG (switched to MS Security Essentials because AVG used too much RAM/CPU) and as I recall, disabling it was pretty straightforward. Can you add iTunes to the exception list?
(11 May '11, 21:50)
spockers ♦♦
If I were in your shoes, I'd just uninstall AVG, then try the restore. If it worked, I'd be finding a different anti-virus program. If it didn't, I'd re-install it. It's a hassle, but who wants a $500+ paperweight?
(11 May '11, 21:59)
spockers ♦♦
You there? Any luck?
(11 May '11, 22:13)
spockers ♦♦
Are you playing Angry Birds? :P
(11 May '11, 22:48)
spockers ♦♦
Apparently Angry Birds runs on your broswer now, so no need for the iPad to play it anymore ;-))
(11 May '11, 23:50)
Yeah I caught the tweet earlier, tried it out. My 4-yr-old was enthralled. It was pretty cool. Still, the iPad is safe from the dumpster. :P
(11 May '11, 23:52)
spockers ♦♦
I tried that on my iPad, it says I need flash. Help?

Did you uninstall AVG?
(12 May '11, 18:02)

Time and Place
The present, in a church
A few angels, led by Sandolfon, enter an empty church to inspect the sanctuary. Sandolfon tells them that their leader, Metatron, has been displeased with their work. Suddenly, Metatron appears, accompanied by Jeremiel and Raguel. Metatron criticizes the group and reminds the angels of their purpose for gathering: "To encourage one mortal love." A mortal, John, who cannot see or hear the angels, arrives in the church. Metatron summons the presence of the Spinster and the Professor to prevent John from leaving the church. John confesses to the Spinster that he is there to meet Ann, whom he would like to marry, but he has his doubts. The Professor encourages Ann. Ann enters, and John hesitantly asks her to marry him. They both discuss their doubts as Metatron and Raguel urge the chorus to lend some encouragement. Time is suspended for the two lovers, and Metatron delivers a sermon, encouraging John and Ann to face the difficulties of life. For a fleeting moment, Ann seems to see the angels surrounding her, and her beatitude is transferred to John. They accept the imperfections of human love, and the angels go on to their next assignment.

Here's a quick layout I put together with some photos from my trip to Vegas this fall. We had a really great time sightseeing and checking out all the cool hotels. I used a template from the Shabby Shoppe - Challenge 19. My kit is called Winter Chic also from the Shabby Shoppe. This kit is intended for winter layouts but the colors really matched my photos so I thought it was a good fit for this page. I used a couple different fonts - SF Ellie Everyday and CK Elegant. Thanks for stopping by!

When My Son Broke One Of His Teeth, I Found A Wonderful Dentist In Norristown!Posted
If you are trying to find a dentist in norristown, I have definitely found the best one. My teenage son is fanatical about his high school sports teams, and he spends just about every weekend watching some sporting event at the school. Of course, it doesn't hurt that he's dating a cheerleader and sometimes that's the only time that he gets to see her on weekends. One night last month, my son was watching a hockey game and the crowd was thrilled that their team was beating their high school rivals. |

Amazon Editorial Review
In his acclaimed bestselling book, Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community, Robert Putnam described a thirty-year decline in America's social institutions. The book ended with the hope that new forms of social connection might be invented in order to revive our communities.
In Better Together, Putnam and longtime civic activist Lewis Feldstein describe some of the diverse locations and most compelling ways in which civic renewal is taking place today. In response to civic crises and local problems, they say, hardworking, committed people are reweaving the social fabric all across America, often in innovative ways that may turn out to be appropriate for the twenty-first century.
Better Together is a book of stories about people who are building communities to solve specific problems. The examples Putnam and Feldstein describe span the country from big cities such as Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Chicago to the Los Angeles suburbs, small Mississippi and Wisconsin towns, and quiet rural areas. The projects range from the strictly local to that of the men and women of UPS, who cover the nation. Bowling Alone looked at America from a broad and general perspective. Better Together takes us into Catherine Flannery's Roxbury, Massachusetts, living room, a UPS loading dock in Greensboro, North Carolina, a Philadelphia classroom, the Portsmouth, New Hampshire, naval shipyard, and a Bay Area Web site.
We meet activists driven by their visions, each of whom has chosen to succeed by building community: Mexican Americans in the Rio Grande Valley who want paved roads, running water, and decent schools; Harvard University clerical workers searching for respect and improved working conditions; Waupun, Wisconsin, schoolchildren organizing to improve safety at a local railroad crossing; and merchants in Tupelo, Mississippi, joining with farmers to improve their economic status. As the stories in Better Together demonstrate, bringing people together by building on personal relationships remains one of the most effective strategies to enhance America's social health.
