This cold season, don't let the sniffles get you down. You may not be able to avoid it, but you can alleviate symptoms of the common cold with some simple home remedies that won't take a big bite out of your wallet. (Of course, always consult a doctor if symptoms worsen or if you need professional medical advice.)
These tips won't cure your cold, but they may make you feel better while you're fighting it.
- Chicken noodle soup is more than just a comfort food. The Mayo Clinic says it may act as an anti-inflammatory and can also speed up mucus movement, offering temporary congestion relief. Noodles are optional. It's the broth that's doing the most good.
- Adding honey to hot water or tea will soothe a sore or scratchy throat. Caffeine can dehydrate you, which is not what the doctor ordered, so choose a caffeine-free tea. Peppermint and green tea are common recommendations.
- Colds flourish in dry environments—it's one of the reasons they are common in winter. If used properly, a humidifier can alleviate cold symptoms and make you more comfortable. Watch the level, though, because too much humidity can aggravate symptoms and cause mold and bacteria growth in your home. Keep your humidifier clean and change water daily.
- If you don't have a humidifier, a steamy shower can give your nasal passages the moisture it's craving.
- Rest! Taking a day off when you first come down with a cold or the flu helps your body direct its energy toward the immune battle. This battle taxes the body, so don't push yourself. Give your body some help in the fight by lying down under a blanket.
Final Word: Save money this cold and flu season by taking advantage of coupons for personal care needs. If the item is on sale but out of stock, ask for a rain check so you can get the sale price when the item is restocked.

The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is one event I always look forward to on my annual calendar. It's an event like none other on the globe. The 14,110 ft mountain is my canvas to do as I wish. It is refreshing. Fun. Exhausting. Frustrating. Dangerous. Nearly every emotion that could be thrown at a person in one week is something you are guaranteed to feel on this mountain.
My first year, 2012, I was in sheer awe of the mountain and the event itself, and it was even more special working with Ducati. My second year, 2013, I was overwhelmed with a sense of being part of history as Sebastian Loeb rocketed past me in his special built Peugeot 908 on course to obliterate the standing record. But this year, the mountain had a different feel. And not in a better way.
I was back working with Ducati. I love the team. I love the company. I love the brand. I don't get to shoot motorcycle racing much, but when I do, it find it to be an exciting and exhilarating challenge. But this year, the mountain had changed. The race was soulless. It had no energy. It had no atmosphere.
What I do not want to do is make this a smear post. Or rain on the parade of a 92-year-old race. But change is needed. Some of you may have read my series of tweets from Sunday afternoon. I stand by what I said. Nothing was said in anger. Only frustration for the event that I very deeply care about. So what has changed?

Jonathan Savas, 24, was charged with child abuse.
A man unhappy that his 10-month old son would not go to sleep, placed the child face down on a couch and sat on the baby's head, DeLand police investigators said Monday.
Jonathan Savas, 24, who was staying at the home of Irene Hossain at the Sha-De-Land mobile home park in DeLand, was charged with child abuse, an arrest report shows. Savas is being held at the Volusia County branch jail on $50,000 bail.
According to police, Savas, who is currently homeless, showed up at Hossain's West Carroll Avenue home late Thursday, with the baby that did not have any clothes on.
The baby would not go to sleep so Savas placed the child on the couch about 12:30 a.m. Friday and sat on the child's head and was holding him down, police said.
Hossain intervened and told Savas to stop. Savas replied "it's my baby I can do whatever I want," while the child screamed throughout the incident, the arrest report states. But he stopped and the child was unhurt.
Hossain said she did not call police immediately because she was afraid of what Savas might do to her. When police later found Savas he told officers he disciplined the baby but would not go into detail, DeLand police said.
Savas later admitted that because the baby would not go to sleep, he put the child face down on the couch and placed his leg on top of the baby to hold him down in attempt to make the child go to sleep, police said.
Savas said the child began to struggle and cry hysterically because he did not want to go to sleep, the report shows.
A hypodermic needle, baggies and a pill container were found in Savas' backpack, police said.

Looking Back Has Its Advantages
Take a wistful glance over your shoulder, and it's easy to see that the Thirties was an exciting time throughout the automobile industry. It was a great age of car design, with a flood of new and innovative ideas. Studebaker was one of the rising stars, with its flamboyant lines and then-powerful six-cylinder 90hp Dictator sixes and 107hp Commander straight eights. The President, Land Cruiser, Commander and Dictator models all offered up powerful images to go with imposing streamlined bodywork that featured unusual window openings, massive ballooned front fenders and a narrow, upright grille treatment. Their look emulated the feeling of speed and style so apparent in this period in automotive design.
When Derrick Carson found an ultra-rare 1936 Dictator Coupe in his local Salt Lake City, Utah newspaper back in 1993, he didn't quite know what it was. However, after a call and a little research he was pretty excited. Derrick had always wanted a three-window Willys, but this three-window Studebaker sounded even better.
The coupe was in an old barn in Price, Utah, 100 miles southeast of Salt Lake City, sitting on a dirt floor. It had not been licensed since 1946, but it still ran on its original flathead six-cylinder engine with 96,000 miles on the clock. He immediately plunked down the $2,500 asking price, and had it towed back to Salt Lake City.
With the help of Steve Taylor, Pete Johnson and Brad Stultz, Derrick attacked the coupe. He wanted a smooth ride with a retro-look, but he wanted a good driving car that handled and stopped well too. So, the frame was removed and fitted with a 1974 Nova front end, adding a modern independent suspension, power steering and disc brakes. The rearend was updated with a 1974 Chevy 10-bolt running a posi and 3.73 gears, but all still suspended by the stock Studebaker springs. A 1978 Pontiac tilt column was also added, along with 15-inch Vintique steel wheels and Moon ripple discs.
The powertrain was also altered with a 1974 Chevrolet 350 V8 and a Turbo 350 tranny. For induction, there's an Edelbrock aluminum manifold with a matching 600cfm Performer carburetor topped with an Edelbrock air cleaner. To cool the 350, Derrick had the stock Studebaker radiator re-cored.
The exhaust has stock Chevrolet cast iron manifolds and a pair of aluminized 2-1/4-inch diameter tube Terminator mufflers. The body was solid with few rust repairs needed, but it had more than the usual dings and a dents for its age which all needed repair. The only body changes were the removal of several emblems, smoothed and shaved bumpers and running board. With work handled, the coupe was painted in primer, but over the past five years Derrick had put it though several primer color changes until its current satin black DuPont Epoxy Primer Sealer finish which he applied just recently. To add some sweet highlights to the blackness, Derrick had Bruce Bingham lay on some cool multi-colored pinstriping.
The interior was handed off to Dennis Bingham in Paris, Idaho, where he re-trimmed the basically stock interior in tan and saddle tones. t this stage the stock instruments were converted to a 12-volt system with a Wiremaster board and harness installed by Steve Taylor, along with a Kenwood CD player and a sound system with EQ and Punch 10-inch sub-woofers.
According to Derrick, "Most people want to know where the back window came from. They really get a kick out of its look and I love how it opens out for airflow." After all, he'd be the first to agree that looking back has its advantages.

Police probe excavator fire
Police and fire officials are investigating a suspected arson fire that scorched an expensive earth excavator on Lockwood Road in Riverside late Wednesday night.
Deputy Fire Chief Thomas Zack said the fire department was called to a vacant lot on Lockwood Road at 11:18 p.m. after explosions were heard in the area.
When firefighters got to the site, the diesel-powered excavator was fully engulfed in flames, Zack said.
"The fire is being actively investigated because of the intensity of the fire," Zack said. The investigation into the 86 Lockwood Road incident is being conducted by the police department and fire marshal's office to find out how and why the machine caught fire.
Lt. Kraig Gray, spokesman for the police department, said in a voice memo Thursday that the machine, estimated to be worth about $150,000, is a total loss.
Gray confirmed the department is investigating the incident as an arson.
"There were several suspicious circumstances and facts that were revealed at the time of the investigation," he said, but did not elaborate.
According to a report of the fire, it took about 500 gallons of water to knock the blaze down and the earth mover was parked about 200 feet from a neighboring dwelling, Zack said.
"There was no threat to adjacent structures," Zack said.
As of Thursday afternoon, the machine remained at the location, its metal burned and its windows blown out.
Zack said he had no information on whom the excavator belonged to or what it was doing there Wednesday night.
Two instances of arson in August on nearby Winthrop Drive, less than a mile from the site of the Lockwood Road incident, resulted in little damage to an under-construction home.
When asked whether the Lockwood and Winthrop incidents are related, Gray said, "It is a possibility that we will have to investigate."
Fire Marshal Jim McDonald could not be reached for comment Thursday afternoon.
Anyone with information is asked to call the police tip line at 800-372-1176.

It's hard to blame Bill Lockyer for wanting the CSU Chancellor position, soon to be vacated by Charles Reed.
The post is prestigious, pays more than three times Lockyer's current salary, and could extend the 71-year old Lockyer's career past his termed out 2014 date.
Yes, it might be nice for Lockyer, but is it good for California?
Lockyer has attributes, to be sure. He served in the state legislature for 25 years and was elected attorney general prior to his winning his current post in 2006. To that end, being a skilled politician is certainly part of the tools required of a CSU Chancellor.
Still, there are other considerations fundamental to the job. A chancellor must have a thorough understanding of the CSU system and its delicate relationship to the other higher public education institutions as well as the K-12 network, including general student education requirements, maintenance and planning, faculty work conditions and, most of all fund raising. Lockyer has a lot of experience, but not in these areas.
The next chancellor will walk into the job under the most trying conditions.
The CSU system has been decimated by layoffs and hiring freezes, deferred maintenance of the infrastructure, tens of thousands of qualified students who have been turned away, and a faculty--the life blood of the institution--demoralized from endless brouhahas with outgoing Chancellor Reed and his team. Simply showing the ability to win election to office does not in itself qualify someone to deal with these complex issues.
Sure, nomination of Lockyer by Governor Jerry Brown to the chancellor position might provide short-term benefits. It would put a known commodity into the job instead of the unknowns that come from a national search.
It would also allow the governor to name a new state treasurer.
But these benefits for Lockyer and the governor would be outweighed by the costs.
The next chancellor needs to be someone with a strong background in education administration--someone who needs to be innovative in challenging times while getting the most from a distrustful faculty who have felt abused and dismissed. He or she needs to be a prodigious fund raiser willing to reach out to the private sector and governments alike.
Most of all, "convenience" should not be a condition of appointment.

Less Intractable Pain and Opioid Consumption Follow Administration of "Pregnancy" Hormones, Preliminary Study Shows
7-Mar-2014 4:00 PM EST
American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM)
Available for logged-in reporters only
30th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Pain Medicine
Newswise — March 7, 2014, Phoenix, AZ -- Two hormones credited with reducing pain and need for opioid analgesics when released naturally during pregnancy and childbirth worked similarly when administered simultaneously to patients with intractable pain, research shows.
Following doses of oxytocin (OT) and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG),7 of 9 patients reported a 30% to 40% reduction in opioid use and baseline pain, in results reported today at the 30th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Pain Medicine. In addition, the patients reported less intense pain flares, which are sudden exacerbations of pain that occur against a background of persistent pain, and longer periods between flares.
Study author Forest Tennant, MD, said side effects were remarkably few, probably because the hormones are natural, bio-identical compounds. Dr. Tennant is an internist and addictionologist who specializes in research and treatment of intractable pain at the Veract Intractable Pain Clinics he founded in West Covina, Calif.
"The benefit that these patients mostly talk about is somewhat subjective but relates to what patients routinely call a 'feeling of well-being,' 'more alive,' or [increasing] 'will to live," Dr. Tennant said. "They also believe the combination is one they want to continue."
Sometimes referred to as the "bonding hormone," OT exerts powerful action in the neuroanatomy of intimacy and also acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. HCG supports the development of the fetus during pregnancy among other roles.
Both hormones surge during and after childbirth, and pregnant women have frequently exhibited reduced pain and need for opioids. Dr. Tennant has conducted previous small open-label studies that confirmed a similar effect for both hormones when administered separately in patients who suffer from intractable pain. However, no one had tested the effect of administering both hormones simultaneously until now.
The study, which was cleared by the facility's Institutional Review Board, included 9 patients with intractable pain who were being maintained on 1 or more long- and short-acting opioids. Daily dosages were administered beneath the tongue of HCG ranging from 250 to 500 units and OT in 10 units taken 2 to 4 times. Patients were evaluated for pain relief, side effects, energy, mental function and opioid dose reduction at 2 to 3 months.
One patient stopped the regimen entirely, saying it had no effect. Another patient stopped taking OT because it made her weepy and despondent but continued taking HCG.
All other patients reported a 30% to 40% reduction in opioid use, reduction in baseline pain, flare intensity, or increase in time between flares. Reports of energy, improved mental functions, mood and libido were variable.
Dr. Tennant said though it is premature to justify this type of hormonal therapy in any but patients who are non-responsive to standard treatments, these preliminary results are worth pursuing as an alternative to more symptomatic conventional treatments for intractable pain. Next steps for increasing the clinical relevance of results would be additional open-label trials by multiple observers, he said. He further expects biomarkers of neuroinflammation and glial cell metabolic disturbance to be useful for monitoring treatment success and, to a great extent, influencing treatment selection.

German Shepherd Dog Forums (https://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/)
- How do I (teach my dog to)? (https://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/how-do-i-teach-my-dog/)
- - ...to walk by other dogs. (https://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/how-do-i-teach-my-dog/194468-walk-other-dogs.html)
...to walk by other dogs.
I have a 3-year old female GSD who is my third GSD. She was 1-1/2 years old when I got her and she is totally devoted and attentive and loving to both my husband and me. She is very good out in public and easy to train. My problem is when we are walking (always on leash) and there is another dog walking towards us (leashed or unleashed) she gets very animated, jumping and pulling towards the other dog. To excess. My goal is to get her to walk by the other dog, by my side. Not to necessarily meet & greet -- but her Meet & Greet Technique stinks anyway and strangers of course do not want to meet. She does have a few neighbor dogs she likes and plays with and looks forward to seeing. I have had her to training (a GSD breeder, trainer, owner) class with a dozen or so dogs and while she would sometimes act out (no more than the other dogs) she was mostly a prize there. She does not apply this forward to when we are just out walking, though. Funny part is she is not concerned with dogs behind their fence, at their window, on their porch/deck, in their car or truck all barking, growling at her. She walks on by. It is just the dog walking by her on the road and mostly walking TOWARDS us. I have tried treats, pinch collar, jerk & release, trying to ignore the other dog/walker -- but she always reacts the same way. Once we get by them, she is back to walking by my side (a quick glance back to be sure they continue on THEIR way). I can turn about and go the other way ok. Just can't walk by them. Any suggestions? Would an e-collar with a low vibrate break that thought pattern and get her attention back on me? I'm willing to try =) She is a GREAT girl and mine forever -- would just like to be comfortable taking her everywhere with me.
I understand completely how you feel. I have had ongoing issues with leash reactivity toward dogs with my 1 1/2 yr old girl. We have been working on this a while now and it is getting better. The one thing that has been the hardest to "fix" is walking directly toward another dog as the other dog walks directly toward us. For me, the prong collar helped immensely. My trainer is getting an e collar for us to use as well (if needed). He feels she may start to really test me. The other day we were out walking and had to go by a lot of dogs. After dog number 9, she just walked right on by. So I think just repeating this exercise over and over again may do the trick. Combined with the proper training tool. Of course there is always LAT and other methods. And keeping them under threshold (which was not always possible for us) Good luck.
I have a FA dog that has been a terror when it came to meeting dogs. The method we used that we had the most success with is BAT. Now that he is finding out that other dogs aren't all this scary monster, he gets over excited. Continuing with the BAT and mixing some Counter Conditioning (jury still out on this) is how we are working on the excitement. The trick, as Katdog said, is keeping him under threshold. Recognizing the signals and redirecting him before it escalates.
A prong is used and corrections given for not complying with a command given, not for reacting to the dog. So far the best behavior for meeting a dog head on when walking is having Woolf heel and walking in a curve around the dog. The distance for that is decreasing.
BAT Ahimsa Dog Blog
Behavior Adjustment Training (BAT) | Official site for BAT: dog-friendly training for reactivity (aggression, fear, frustration) by Grisha Stewart, MA
Counter Conditioning
LAT worked best with my dog. If she starts to react, I put her in a sit, she looks at the dog and looks back at me. I'm not against using a correction collar to stop the reaction so you can get their focus but you need to lay the ground work, whether LAT or BAT, first.
Thanks, all. All good information and tips for our work together. A good point for me to remember is the correction should be for NOT following a command. I think I'm correcting for her reaction to the other dogs without me really giving a command. We're currently working on a very tight heel with total focus on me with lots of 'look at me -- treat' and see if perhaps we can just heel on by those other dogs if need be.
Is it reasonable to think that an e-collar for really just that reaction to other dogs would be a route to take? Would the approach be: walking along, see dog, give command (like heel) and correct if she breaks the heel command -- THEN give an e-collar correction if she continues? Is that sort of how it would work (assuming our current plan doesn't correct this one behavior).
First, I have nothing against e-collars. My biggest concern is will your dog associate the correction from the collar with the dog instead of the behavior. There are many different thoughts on this.
I do know that with Woolf, if my timing was bad, I missed his signals and didn't redirect, he wouldn't learn anything from a correction once he is reacting. He doesn't get a correction for reacting to dogs. Instead I get him out of the situation, then begin again. I have messed up at times and corrected late and his behavior escalated. We would lose ground and had to do some extra work to regain it.
Thanks, Twyla. Could you be a little more detailed for me, as I have never used an e-collar yet and don't even have one yet. If you and Woolf were walking, and you spot a leashed dog walking towards you right when Woolf does or even a little before -- when you see that Woolf spots the dog and is reacting (alert and animated or getting animated) and you know each and every time the reaction is the same, what is your command to Woolf and when? Then, when would the e-correction come into play, assuming it is necessary? I'm assuming the correction HAS to be for not following the command so he doesn't think it is the other dog creating the feeling from the e-collar. Yes?
Note: in most of my situations, we're on a road, walking and the other person/dog (normally leashed) will be on the opposite side or moves to the opposite side of the road, but even that close always gets a reaction from my dog. The closer they get, the more reaction. I can (and do) turn about and leave the situation, but my goal is to be able to walk on by.
Thanks for all your help.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – A collected attacking front for Austin Peay started off the scoring in Sunday afternoon's game as the Govs jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the 13th minute of play.
APSU defender Samantha Northrup crashed the goal on a corner kick to put herself in a position to volley a header by Laurena Robinson over freshman keeper Becca Toler's head, putting the Govs on the board first.
Austin Peay continued to pressure Tech throughout the duration of the game, putting up 12 shots to TTU's six, led by Tatiana Ariza with five shots.
The Golden Eagles responded in the second half however, as Kerri Reid notched her first goal of the season from 20 yards out to tie the game in the 71st minute. Reid's shot was one of two that fell on net for Tech.
With second half momentum seemingly split between the two teams and the foul count climbing – both teams ended the game with 11 fouls apiece – the Govs got their game-winner off of a direct kick by Natalia Ariza on a handball call a few yards outside of the box. Toler got a hand on the ball but it wasn't enough to keep it out of the net, and the Govs took the 2-1 lead in the 84th minute of the game.
The win for the Govs holds the Golden Eagles out of post-season play, as Tech was one win out of a potential spot in the playoff bracket.
Toler recorded six saves in her 90 minutes, while Peay keeper Carley Newman earned one save.
"Obviously we would have preferred to end our season on a different note," said head coach Daniel Brizard. "We wanted to make another run at the tournament title of course, but overall it would have been nice to end on a win."
Sunday's game marked the final game for six Golden Eagle seniors, listed below, who were recognized with their families prior to the start of the game by Brizard and Tech Director of Athletics Mark Wilson.
No. 3 – Taren Brown
No. 5 – Michelle Decker
No. 10 – Jen Hoffman
No. 13 – Brooke Mayo
No. 16 – Ashley Smith
No. 25 – Kathryn Lally

This pocket chart is from my favorite store Lakeshore Learning. The number cards are standard calendar size. I also made the months, days & season cards in English & Spanish. Click on the pic above to grab this 60 page calendar set. There is a TON of stuff included in this set...just read the description and download the preview. The graphics and backgrounds in this set are so bright, colorful & fabulous! I am truly obsessed.....peace stuff has even spilled over to EVERY room in our house! I think I was a hippie in a former life....yeah this life! I would say more like a "princess hippie"....lol.
These #'s ARE NOT included in the calendar set but you can grab them for free @ Ginger Snaps. The analog & digital templates are included. I laminated them & will use a Vis-a-Vis marker to draw in the hands and digital time.
We will play with numbers all sorts of ways with this! Tally marks, place value, counting, sequencing, etc. You can even use a dry-erase board....I velcro anything to everything!
I included 48 special day cards with graphics. All U.S. holidays, class party, happy birthday, seasons, breaks, etc. I actually printed a few copies of these & am putting them in a pocket chart in the writing center....SCORE! Writing topics!!!!
This is our Accelerated Reader (AR) point tracker. I absolutely LOVE AR & my kids become obsessed.....crazy obsessed with taking AR tests. I will have monthly contests & assign a certain amount of points depending on the student. Then, I fill up a Smencil container with all sorts of goodies! For every test they take they get to put their initials on a scrap piece of paper. They soon realize the more tests they take the better their chance is of winning! I bought so much peace stuff for 88 cents to fill one boy container & one girl container for every month! This AR tracker can be used monthly or however you keep track. I know this will be such a motivator to move their clip down. I put the points up to 30+ with blank cards to fill in your own numbers. Click on the picture above to check it out!
I used to have my students put their name on the board. They were not to go past #10. As each child took a test they pushed the Staples "EASY" button & went to erase their name. Never failed....I would always get those sneaky ones that would erase someone else's name just so they can skip them! I tried so many different ways to do this but they always ended up fighting over who was next. I made this peace themed AR line. This is a pocket chart from Lakeshore...of course. The extra numbers are in the pocket. As they take a test they will move their number down into the pocket. I made #'s to 32. I would hope anyone doesn't have more than 32 students! If you do let me know. These numbers can also be used to label book bins, cubbies, desks, stations, etc.
I am obsessed with this new bulletin board...obsessed. Any teacher that walked by my room I dragged them in to show it off. So proud of it! Guess where the pocket chart is from??? In the first quarter I will include all letters to make the words until they get used to it. I used a version of this towards the end of last year. I included four different sheets with a 4x4 & 5x5 grid. I will use this as a time filler or early finisher activity & during D5 word work. This can be used in a portable pocket chart as well. I hope you like it as much as I do! Click on the picture to check it out.
I had to slip this in here.....I know I need to be stopped. Something is seriously wrong with me. I am self diagnosing myself with peace sign OCD. Sadly this is not everything I bought. I found four more bags hiding under the dog's bed & had more in my trunk! Oh, there are two clipboard sets with stationary somewhere in my closet. All I remember is my hubby pulling in RIGHT after I got home & I threw it in there to hide it...lol. We were in Walmart yesterday because I needed some more peace themed fabric. I found myself needing a xanax in the school supply aisle & he said "I'll be in electronics!" He doesn't do well when it's back to school time. Everything came from Big Lots, Target, Walmart & Michael's.
STOP! This turned out so freaking cute I can't stand it! It will spell out Peace, Love, First Grade. I am in love! I will tie this all together when finished & it will go all the way across my room. Who started this banner obsession of mine anyway??? I wanted to make one for above my bed & hubs said NO....so I am making 3 for the dogs (Bentley, Java & Olive) & it will be proudly displayed in their bedroom. Yes, they have a bedroom. Click on the picture above to grab this cuteness. I also made a different one that says "Welcome To First Grade". Check it out HERE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN A DIFFERENT GRADE LEVEL JUST SEND ME AN EMAIL & I WILL WORK ON IT.
This is my side table my aide works at with small groups. I am planning on making more peace crate seats to go around this table. Notice the groovy lava lamps in the background????
I made some additional necklaces for my students this year. I bought these magnet clips 4 for 88 cents @ Walmart. It looks so cute & it will be so easy for them or me to go grab them. Click on the picture above to go straight to the peace themed character education necklaces. I am doing the same thing with my student recognition necklaces below.
These have been extremely popular! That is why I had to make more! My students were beyond obsessed with these necklaces & were so proud when they got one. The parent's loved them as well! I made four separate files of these so you can pick & choose which ones fit in your classroom. When you are in my TPT STORE make sure you look at the four different files.
This tie dye tapestry came from a little hippie shop in Chi-town. It totally pulls the room together.
This is my peace themed word wall. I did change the vowels to a different color in the file. Click on the pic above to grab your peace themed word wall headers!
These are my peace themed rules! Click on the pic to check them out!
I made this last year. It took me no time at all! I just used shipping & mailing labels & stuck them directly on the drawers.
This is what my behavior clip chart looks like. I made a newer version that is in my store. There is a monthly behavior calendar that is included.
This is my kidney table covered with peace fabric from Walmart. I hide soooo much under this! It's so embarrassing! But at least it's out of view now.
The signs above the buckets are from Party City. I actually bought them to cover up the ugliness above. So glad we are getting a new school next year!
I made these last year as well. I bought the clipboards at Walmart for $1! I have also seen them at Dollar Tree not too long ago. I modge-podged this tie-dye scrapbook paper onto the clipboards. I display their monthly writings on these.
This is my peace themed classroom jobs! My students LOVE their jobs & it makes them so much more responsible & saves me a lot of time. Click on the pic to grab your own set.
My peace themed crate seats! That bulletin board was from last year. Unfortunately when I arrived at school last week they had moved these & all the letters & flowers are toast.....GRR! This just made me rearrange my room....once again.
This bean bag was from Meier last year. I also have a container for each student for their extra supplies. You can't see it in the pic but they are peace themed.
We started using C.H.A.M.P.S last year. Click on the pic to grab you peace themed champs sign!
This is my D5 board.......honestly it's a little too busy so I think I'm going to change it.
Click on the pic to check out my peace themed table names!
This is my new peace themed voice level clip chart. I made a little sign last year & it just didn't work out too well. They needed a larger visual. I included arrows to use as well. I have it on my front dry erase board. I placed a magnetic strip on the back & will move it to the appropriate voice level. Click on the picture above to grab yours!
Speaking of coupons.....these are in the TOP 5 on TPT! I could not believe it when I saw it! So excited about all the children all over the world that will be introduced to this system! This is also saving thousands of teacher's money! NO MORE TREASURE BOX! I have received several requests to add more & I will but I'm starting school Tuesday & I'm going INSANE trying to keep up with everything. Once you buy it you can redownload when I add more! Grab it while it's on sale peeps!
Here is my proof! I think I am going to frame this!
Yee haw!
I included 90 different schedule cards for anything you would possibly have in your schedule! Originally I was going to put this in a schedule pocket chart but I think I am going to use this in conjunction with the peace themed CCSS I am working on. I will post pics after I am finished.
For the next two days everthing....EVERYTHING in my store will be 28% off! I am going to be broke after this sale is over friends. I have over 60 items in my cart!
Here are a few things I posted several weeks ago that I never blogged about. I bundled the Candy Land games for 1 & 2 that go with Scott Foresman, Houghton Mifflin, & Treasures!!!!! You save OVER 40% if you buy the bundle instead of the individual games by unit. Click on the pics below to grab the bundles! All of my Candy Land games are listed on this page! Simply click on the individual pics to go directly there.

How she uses Google Books
As an academic librarian specializing in preservation, Holly Robertson works hard to make sure faculty and students have access to the information they need -- even books that are out of circulation because they're too brittle or damaged or in the process of being repaired.
"My goal is to get people what they need as quickly as possible," says Robertson, who heads Preservation Services at the University of Virginia. "If someone asks for an old book that's being conserved, or in too poor a condition to be circulated, the first thing I think is, 'Is it on Google Books?' In many cases, I'm able to send them a link to the book. Patrons are very happy to have the online Google book while they wait for the Library's copy to be repaired."
What she found
Since she works in preservation, Robertson has a special appreciation for being able to find old, rare books. "I've seen plenty of books that are basically destroyed -- with pages and the covers missing -- and I can go online to see another library's copy that's completely intact," she says. "For some of these books, digitization by Google represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture and share the information they contain. There's so much information in libraries that people can't easily find. It's groundbreaking that Google is bringing search and accessibility to these books."
How he uses Google Books
As a graduate student at Loyolla University in Chicago, Illinois, Nathan Maas is always on the lookout for useful online resources. "I've always been an avid Internet user," he explains. "Right now I'm working towards my Master's degree in Social Justice. I'm often looking for books on economics, fair trade, and human rights. My goal is to find resources that help me be more comprehensive and accurate."
What he found
"I've found all kinds of books I might never have known existed," says Maas, who sees Google Books as a complement to the online databases for scholarly journals.
In addition to helping him track down trustworthy academic sources, Google Books enables Maas to search within these materials to identify the specific information he needs. Using the 'My Library' feature, he can build his own online collection of books, and then search only within the collection, saving the time he would have spent narrowing search results from a broader query.
"When I find a book I want to use in a paper, I add it to 'My Library,'" explains Maas. "'My Library' lets me find specific quotes and passages in the books I discover, without having to laboriously comb through each book."
How he uses Google Books
William Hatcher has a calling. "I work for a nonprofit called Servants in Faith and Technology, a Christian organization in Alabama that provides training in self-help for people in need," Hatcher explains. "Part of my job is teaching community leaders from developing countries essential skills, like how to provide clean water, maintain sanitation systems, and administer basic health services."
One of the key challenges, says Hatcher, is finding ways to help his trainees access and share this vital information once they return home. "So I started gathering materials from the Internet to create online libraries
for people who can get access to the Internet, and I'm exploring other opportunities for those who can't."Hatcher's primary resource for finding these materials is Google Books, and he actively uses the My Library feature to organize and share all the relevant books he's found.
What he found
Since Google scans the full text of books, Hatcher is abe to find useful information in books he might otherwise have passed over. "Who would have thought you could learn how the Chinese incubate eggs in the US Agricultural Report of 1901," he says.
Hatcher envisions a future where access to these kinds of resources is even easier. "I look forward to the time when you'll be able to put a whole library in your pocket," he says. "Of course, when you're trying to turn the world upside down, not everything is going to come into neat little boxes. Google Books is as close as it gets."
How he uses Google Books
Put online publishing tools in the hands of someone with a curious mind and you'll end up with a blog like emonome.com, written by Emon Hassan, an independent theatre producer and history buff from New York City
The common thread linking Hassan's posts is his passion for esoteric information, which he says makes Google Books an ideal research tool for his blog. "I use Google Books to look up wildly different topics," he says. "It just depends on how I feel that day. I'll go in, search for whatever's been on my mind, and see what's out there. At that point, it's all about finding the books tangential to the topic. That's where I find the most interesting stuff."
What he found
Hassan has stumbled on a vast array of books, including a book exploring Egyptian music, and not one, but two screenwriting guides guides from the 1920s. As someone who appreciates historical context, Hassan likes paging through rare books, which he often writes about on his blog. "It's fascinating to get that perspective, especially if I'm researching something technical like cinematography," he says.
The Google Books index contains rare public domain books scanned from collections at more than 28 outstanding libraries. "I can't just walk across the street and check out Harvard's library. Now I have access to their collection," says Hassan. "I found a rare book that had a commemorative plate from 1785, when it was apparently given to the library. I love the personal touches you can find in early editions of books like that, with scribblings in the margins."

Why study in Europe?
EUNiCAS, host annual information events on studying in Europe .
Full details are available here
There had been a significant increase in recent years in the number of leaving cert students opting to apply to degree programmes in Universities across Europe – Why is this option growing in popularity?
- There are over 1000 undergraduate degree programmes in a full range of subjects in universities across Europe, that are delivered through English – Lectures and Text Books are in English; Assignments are in English etc. In response to the shortage of young people in Europe, the aim is to attract applicants from beyond the national market, reflecting English as the language of business, engineering, I.T. science, and many other areas in the 21st century.
- A number of these programmes are offered in leading European Universities, many of which are ranked higher than any of the Irish Universities (7 Dutch universities are ranked higher than TCD).
- Entry requirements in many European universities are generally lower (often significantly) than those for Irish (and UK) universities. LC points are usually irrelevant. Many programmes – but not all - have no selection procedures and for entry, only look for NUI matriculation requirements (six passes at Leaving Cert, with at least Grade H5 in two subjects on the Higher Course and at least Grade H7 (Higher Course) or O6 (Ordinary Course) in four subjects.). The Universities of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands and Denmark will accept a relevant QQI/FETAC Level 5 as meeting their entry requirements
- There are no Third-level tuition fees in many European countries - Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland are free of fees. Tuition fees of €2083 apply for all courses in the Netherlands, with a supplement of about €1,000 -1500 for a handful of Liberal Arts & Sciences courses. Students can also apply for interest-free Tuition Fee loans. In some countries, including Denmark and Netherlands, students working part-time can get loans or grants of over €800 a month. Fees are also free in Malta, Germany and Austria. Tuition fees in Italy (including for medicine) are fixed with reference to family income and are between €400 and €4000 per year
- The experience of studying in Europe gives students an excellent preparation for working in globalised employment markets. As more and more students undertake the experience of studying in Europe, word gets back and the reports are very positive indeed.
General Information
European universities are actively seeking UK and Irish students to study with them and over the past five years, the number of Irish students securing places in public universities in Europe is increasing, particularly in the Netherlands, where non-health science subjects including politics, business, IT, art, international law, liberal arts, psychology, and science are attracting students from Ireland.
Key Dates
15th Jan 2019 - Application deadline for a limited number of programmes in the Netherlands
with a selection procedure
15th Mar 2019 - Application deadline in Denmark
18th Apr 2019 - Second round application deadline for most programmes in Sweden
Apr- May 2019 Entrance tests in Dublin for leading Polish and Hungarian vet and med schools
1st May 2019 - Applications deadline for many programmes in Dutch Research Universities (though some have application deadlines as late as 1st July)
June-August 2019 – Different application deadlines for most programmes in Dutch Universities of Applied Sciences
31st July 2019 – second round offers in Denmark
July 2019 (exact date tbc) – application deadline, for entry 2019, for entrance test for med schools at public Italian universities
Health Sciences in Europe
Many Irish students attend both medical and paramedical programmes in central and eastern European countries including Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria. Most of these operate on the same basis, with entrance examinations based on competency in biology and chemistry.
Fees in these countries will be higher than in Western Europe and are usually between €8000 and €12000 a year.
Hungary and Poland - There are over 40 first years in the veterinary programme in Warsaw this year and a high number in the Budapest programme too. There are also increasing numbers in the Polish vet schools. Poland is an increasingly attractive destination for medicine students, though there are good numbers of Irish and UK students in Hungarian and Czech med schools.
See also: Study Hungary and Medical Poland
Physiotherapy – there are currently well over 100 Irish students studying on the Physio programmes in the Netherlands. Feedback from them is consistently positive.
EuniCAS offers a support structure to Irish students applying to third-level colleges throughout Europe (excluding Hungary). See EuniCAS.
Infographic & Guide: How to Become a Doctor by Aris Grigoriou, Student Recruitment Manager at Study Medicine Europe.
Italy - In recent years, Italian universities have begun to offer medical degree programmes through English. Fees range between €400- €4000, depending on income. Italian universities use the International Medical Admissions Test (IMAT), a 100-minute, subject-specific admissions test for applicants to medicine and surgery courses. The test is through English and consists of verbal reasoning and science subjects.
There are now eleven public universities – including Bologna, Milan, Pavia, and Sapienza in Rome – offer degrees in medicine through English that are open to all EU students. After two years (and sometimes earlier), Irish students can access the student loans available to Italian students.
Graduates of Italian medical programmes take their intern year back in Ireland, whereas central and eastern European graduates in most, but not all countries, complete their intern year as part of their studies. Graduates are recognised by regulatory bodies in Ireland.
As well as the Netherlands, the most popular European destinations are Denmark and Germany. Places are available on degree programmes in a wide range of disciplines including: Health Sciences, Arts & Humanities, Life Sciences, Social Sciences, Engineering & IT and Business.
|See National Student Fee and Support Systems in European Higher Education - Facts and Figures - A guide to the key features of the fee system in each EU Country, indicating whether or not international students pay different fees than national or EU students [PDF available here]
How to Search for Courses in European Universities
Start by finding out about different courses and colleges in Europe.
You can get information about particular colleges in Europe by writing directly to the college to request a copy of their prospectus.
If you do not have a specific course or institution in mind, there are a number of other sources of information available to help you:
The European Commission Study in Europe website has information about higher education institutions in 32 European countries. It has guides to: Choosing a course, making an application and living in Europe, as well as scholarship opportunities.
Irish website Careers News has recently made a new International Course Search available via the Careers News website. The service, which is provided by Icares in Holland, allows students to search some 40,000 courses in 119 countries, and points them to the web page for that particular course.
Every European country also has a searchable database showing what courses are on offer:
- Study in Denmark website - http://www.studyindenmark.dk
- Study in Finland website - http://www.studyinfinland.fi
- Study in Germany website -http://www.study-in.de
- Study in Poland website - http://www.studyinpoland.pl
- Study in Sweden website - http://www.studyinsweden.se
EUNiCAS is the European Universities Central Application Support Service. It provides information for Irish students on degree programmes taught through English, in Universities across Europe (more below). In addition to accessing comprehensive and independent information on programmes in Europe, you can register (for a very low fee of €28) and access:
- Independent advice on choosing your programme
- Expert support in applying to your chosen programmes, and overcoming common obstacles and misunderstandings
- Guidance on all elements of your application package, inc Letters of Motivation [Personal Statements] and Entrance Tests
- Regular updates on new programmes and developments
- Assistance in organising university visits
- Alerts on extended deadlines and late vacancies
Many students and their families gain a lot of reassurance, and invaluable aid, from the support offered by EUNiCAS
|Many of the European universities, that have programmes taught through English, have Open Days, at which Irish Students are very welcome. See upcoming Open Days here
Where to apply
Application processes vary across Europe, so it is worth spending some time checking out the detail for the country you are interested in studying in.
- The Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Finland have a centralised application procedure similar to the Irish CAO system. Many Swedish Universities and all Finnish Universities require exam results by 1st July, meaning that Irish students will need to take a gap year if they want to study there. The application deadline for Denmark is mid-March.
- There are centralised qualification validation requirements in Germany and Spain.
For a number of EU universities, application is made direct to either the university itself, or to the qualification validation body, or to the official body organising the entrance test. The diversity of arrangements in place across Europe makes EUNiCAS a useful tool for students. EUNiCAS is the European Universities Central Application Support Service. The EUNiCAS website has details of all courses offered through English, programme guidelines, application forms and completion procedures. Students can apply for to up to eight degree programmes taught through English, in universities across Europe, via Eunicas.
Students can also apply directly to the college of the choice. See individual college information for details.
A full list of Key Dates for applications is also available on the Eunicas website.
Will my Qualification be valid in Ireland?
The National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) is the system used in Ireland to clarify and compare qualifications. The European Qualification Framework (EQF) is the common European system. It links the different national qualifications systems from different countries together, acting as a translation device, to make qualifications more readable and understandable.
As qualifications frameworks continue to develop around the world, they contribute to greater mobility opportunities for learners and to the internationalisation of education and training.
Qualifications Recognition- an updated leaflet explaining how QQI works with the National Academic Recognition Information Centre (NARIC). It provides advice on fair academic recognition of foreign qualifications that may be used for access to unregulated employment and/or further study in Ireland. The leaflet is available here in six languages.
The Qualrec website explains education and training systems in different countries in EU and beyond, and gives access to other relevant information updates.
The popular leaflet, Travelling with your Irish Qualification has also been updated and provides advice on the initial steps involved in getting Irish qualifications recognised abroad, whether for study or employment purposes.
About the European Qualifications Framework
The EQF uses eight reference levels which span the full scale of qualifications, from basic (Level 1, for example school leaving certificates) to advanced (Level 8, for example Doctorates) levels. The eight reference levels are described in terms of 'learning outcomes'.
The EQF recognises that Europe's education and training systems are so diverse that a shift to learning outcomes is necessary to make comparison and cooperation between countries and institutions possible.
In the EQF a learning outcome is defined as a statement of what a learner knows, understands and is able to do on completion of a learning process. The EQF therefore emphasises the results of learning rather than focusing on inputs such as length of study. Learning outcomes are specified in three categories – as knowledge, skills and competence.
NOTE: From 2012 all new qualifications should bear a reference to the appropriate EQF level.
Certificate Supplements for Level 5 and Level 6 Awards
The Certificate Supplements for all FETAC Level 5 and Level 6 Major, Special Purpose and Supplemental Awards went live on the Awards Directory in March 2014.
The Certificate Supplement is provided on-line to people who hold certain QQI (FET) vocational education and training awards. The Certificate is currently available for Major and Special Purpose awards at NFQ Levels 5 and 6.
Certificate Supplements are really useful if you are trying to have your Award understood overseas whether for academic recognition (through NARIC UK for example), or for employment purposes.
It gives information about your Award so that employers, or education and training providers, worldwide can easily understand your qualification, and what you have learned (knowledge, skill and competence). You can use it along with your CV, when applying for work or for further learning experiences.
Certificate Supplements are used across Europe as part of the European Skills Passport. It is one of the five Europass Tools (See below). However, unlike the Diploma Supplement, (within higher education, providers issue Diploma Supplements directly to graduates), the Certificate Supplement is issued by the Awarding Body. Providers of programmes leading to FETAC (QQI) awards should now also issue Certificate Supplements to learners along with their parchment and transcript.
Full details of the Certificate Supplement are available here.
Sample Europass Certificate Supplements:

Europass - The European Skills Passport
Europass aims to help individuals to have their skills and qualifications clearly and easily understood in Europe, thereby increasing the mobility of both learners and workers.
Europass plays an important role in supporting learners as they avail of opportunities in other EU initiatives such as Erasmus + (See details above)
Europass provides a range of tools to make skills and qualifications easily understood, in a common format, in Ireland and across Europe.
There are five Europass documents available which help to describe learning achievements in a standardised manner:
- The Europass CV - this is the cornerstone of the European Skills Passport. It helps to de-clutter and systematically organise personal career information
- The Europass Language Passport -
- Europass also includes supplements that explain in detail the meaning of qualifications held by a learner.
In 2014, QQI launched a significant new range of Europass Certificate Supplements for Level 5 and 6 CAS awards (view the QQI Awards Directory here).
These new documents are available to download and provide additional information about the awards achieved, for employers and institutions in the standardised format. Certificate Supplements support award holders in getting appropriate recognition for their qualifications, and can also be stored in individual European Skills Passports.
See EuroPass for detailed information.
College Fees and Living Expenses in Europe
Tuition Fees
The cost of attending many universities in Europe is often much lower than registering for an equivalent undergraduate degree programme in Ireland or the UK. However, fees can vary significantly, depending on the country in which the university is located and the subject matter of the degree programme.
- There are no fees for UK and Irish students studying in Malta, or in the four Scandinavian countries, in state sector universities.
- In the state-sector universities in Austria, Germany and Switzerland, there are no Tuition Fees but there are admin fees of about 500 -600 pa
- In the Netherlands, tuition fees (2019) are €2083 pa. There is a tuition fee loan system whereby students have up to 20 years after graduation to repay their student loan to the Dutch government. The full fee can be covered.
- University fees are also low in Italy. Medical School fees in Italy are very low [€400 – €4000 pa,] as they are linked to family income. The average Irish student will pay €1500 p.a. in Italy.
Fees for Health Sciences in most other European countries, besides Italy, are high, rising to between €18,000 and €20,000 in some private universities, but usually between €9,000 and €12,000 in the better Central European faculties, but rising to between €18,000 and €20,000 in some private universities in Western Europe.
Course duration in Europe ranges from 3-4 years for undergraduate courses and 1+ years for postgraduate courses.
Insurance - European universities generally require students to have both medical and liability insurance cover when they register. The EU Medical Card provides good basic cover, but a more comprehensive package including medical cover plus liability, theft, loss and travel etc. may be advisable.
Accommodation & Living Costs
The cost of studying in Europe varies greatly by country and region but a truly world-class education is obtainable without overextending your budget. The cost of living in most European cities compares pretty favourably with cities in the UK and Ireland. Local accommodation costs are included in the university profiles in the Eunicas database.
Course fees and living expenses are reasonable, but they can vary widely by country and region - see Eunicas course profiles for more detailed information.

ERASMUS is an EU programme that allows students at third-level to spend time studying or on work placement in another EU country. Most universities and colleges have an Erasmus exchange programme in place.
A new Erasmus programme has launched in 2014. Called Erasmus+ it brings together seven existing EU programmes in the fields of Education, Training and Youth; it will for the first time provide support for Sport. As an integrated programme, Erasmus+ offers more opportunities for cooperation across the Education, Training and Youth sectors and is easier to access than its predecessors, with simplified funding rules.
Individuals cannot apply directly for grants. Students who are interested in Erasmus should contact their university, college or organisation.
The Erasmus+ Programme Guide is available here.

I tried to sew my own pair of leggings. I tried, I swear.
Once I had perfected one leg, the machine broke and I haven't been able to get the stitching to "sew".
So off to Marciano I went and bought two pairs of leggings on sale for twenty dollars each. In my world, that's a bargain.
Moo has been escaping from the back yard, and running as quickly down my street as he can. Boyfriend fixed the fences today to avoid any more of this but who knows.. who really knows. Something the size of a large rat is bound to find a way out somehow. Also, I am still working on housebreaking him. Even though he knows where he should and shouldn't go, he is spoiled, stubborn and definitely not neutered which may not be helping. We've also moved a few times since Moo came into my life. If any one has tips regarding small rat like dogs and training, please advise!
My garden looks excellent. It's growing and growing, and I am beginning to wonder if I am going to need to extend the vegetable garden as the peppers, pumpkins and cabbage may just overflow by September/October.
This weekend, Boyfriend and I are going to garden, and clean out the garage in hopes of fresh storage and beautiful landscaping. NEW PICS COMING SOON!
Two weeks ago, we were thrilled to go to an absolutely lovely backyard party, fully equipped with palm trees the size of the house, an open bar and buffet, and deejays.
Somehow, Boyfriend ended up manning the BBQ towards the end of the night. I think he grilled an entire tub of chicken. Sounds gross but it was DEE-LISH!
Thanks Laura and Akhil for inviting us to your home! We had an awesome time!
And, just for fun – some pics of the Korean BBQ Boyfriend and I love to get downtown at Yummies.

MONTREAL (AP) — Sergei Bobrovsky made one big save without his stick, then turned away Montreal captain Max Pacioretty three times in a row. As far as Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella is concerned, that's why Columbus got two points on Tuesday night.
Bobrovsky made 28 saves, Zach Werenski scored 1:09 into overtime and the Blue Jackets beat the Canadiens 2-1.
Werenski beat Charlie Lindgren with a wrist shot to the glove side, converting after a few stellar stops from Bobrovsky in the third period.
Bobrovsky, without his stick, robbed Jacob De La Rose with a blocker save on a 2-on-1 five minutes into the period. Three minutes later, he made three consecutive saves on Pacioretty.
"That's the key to winning in the NHL, your goaltender has to do it," Tortorella said. "A couple of saves Bob made in the third period, that's a big reason why we're getting points. Bob has been terrific for us. He never gives. He's an athlete."
Josh Anderson had a goal 2:29 into the game for Columbus. Paul Byron got Montreal's goal early in the third.
Lindgren, making his fifth consecutive start for Montreal, stopped 23 shots.
Anderson got his team-leading seventh goal after Montreal's Brandon Davidson tipped Markus Nutivaara's point shot right to Anderson. He let the puck drop before batting it past Lindgren. Davidson was also at fault seconds earlier when Nutivaara intercepted his failed clearance at the blue line. The goal came on Columbus' second shot of the game.
Byron, playing his 300th NHL game, came close to equalizing midway through the second period. With the Canadiens playing short-handed, Byron stole the puck from Seth Jones at the blue line and moved in alone on Bobrovsky, but the Blue Jackets goalie got his pad on the shot.
Montreal finally broke through when Byron poked a loose rebound over Bobrovsky's shoulder into the top corner of the net at 12:14 of the third.
"We don't want to wait until the third period or when we're down to put the foot on the gas," said Pacioretty, who took a game-high seven shots on goal.
With forward Torrey Mitchell out with the flu, the Canadiens were forced to dress seven defensemen. Rookie Victor Mete played on the fourth line with De La Rose and Byron Froese.
NOTES: Earlier on Tuesday, the Canadiens claimed goalie Antti Niemi off waivers from the Florida Panthers. Carey Price (lower body) and Al Montoya (concussion) are still out with injuries. ... UFC middleweight champion Georges St-Pierre dropped the ceremonial first puck. ... Quebec-born Blue Jackets forward Pierre-Luc Dubois played his first NHL game at the Bell Centre.
Blue Jackets: Host the New York Rangers on Friday night.
Canadiens: Host Arizona on Thursday night.

UMSL accounting student Benjamin Taylor was named the 2011-12 LEAP Student of the Year by the Missouri Society of Certified Public Accountants.
Benjamin Taylor was shocked when he was notified that he'd been selected by the Missouri Society of Certified Public Accountants as the Lead and Enhance the Accounting Profession Student of the Month for June 2012. He was even more surprised when he learned a month later he'd been chosen as the 2011-12 LEAP Student of the Year.
"It was unexpected," said Taylor, a senior majoring in accounting at the University of Missouri–St. Louis . "It's an honor to be recognized by MSCPA. As a student, these are the professionals I look up to and some day hope to work with. Being recognized as not only student of the month, but student of the year is a great honor."
He was chosen by a panel of independent judges for his involvement in the profession and UMSL community.
Taylor, a resident of St. Charles, Mo., has tutored numerous accounting students and prepared income taxed returns for clients through the IRS Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program at UMSL.

User Notices, Cautions and Warnings
Wikipedia employs a daunting variety and number of levels of User notices and warnings. (See: Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace.)
Conversely, our need for such notices, cautions and warnings, is much, much more simplified. (Well, at least comparatively. More may be created as necessity may require.)
|NOTE: All User Notices, Cautions and Warnings are categorized under Category:Warnings. So, just because it's categorized under Category:Warnings, that does not necessarily means it's bad. (See: User warnings for details.)
Level 1
All "Level 1" User warning templates are placed on the user's talk page.
If you find a Level 1 User warning template has been placed on your User talk page, here's what to do:
- Once you have read and understand it...
- if you intend to comply, simply remove it from your talk page. (This will signify your understanding and intent to comply.) Then, go back and look for and review any of your recent "contributions" that were "reverted", "rolled-back" or, possibly, just re-edited (due to your edit).
- if you cannot or do not intend to comply, simply do nothing. (This will signify you cannot or will not comply.) Then, send a request for account deletion to a Bureaucrat explaining why.
With that being said, you really don't want to get more than a couple of these, because... even though we really, really want users to contribute to this wiki, we expect you to take it upon yourself to read and understand our policies, guidelines and, if necessary, help pages, before editing/posting.
User warning: Chat (Level 1)
- {{Uw-chat1}} — For minor, (and also, probably unintended) use of talk pages for chatting, etc.
User warning: Edit summary (Level 1)
- {{Uw-editsummary}} — For failing to provide an edit summary when submitting/committing any edit.
User warning: Vandalism (Level 1)
- {{Uw-vandal1}} — For minor, silly or harmless (and, probably unintended) vandalism. (Note, however, real vandals/spammers don't get any warning; they just get banned.)
User warning: YPT-IS-PII (Level 1)
- {{Uw-ypt1}} — For minor violation of BSA's and/or MeritBadgeDotOrg's youth protection, internet safety, and/or personally identifiable information policies and/or guidelines.
Level 2
Level 3
Level 4
All "Level 0" User warning templates are placed on the user page — not the user's talk page. Additionally, the User's page is blanked and the user's page and talk page are both edit-protected by an administrator.
Profane, disrespectful, abusive, or otherwise inappropriate editing will cause a user to be blocked (or "banned") by an administrator, with or without prior warning; it is almost always permanent; and, it merely specifies the reason why. (In other words, "Level 0" User warning templates are more or an administrative reporting tool, rather than an actual warning to the user.)
User warning: Vandalism (Level 0)
- {{Uw-vandal0}} — Self-explanatory.
User warning: YPT-IS-PII (Level 0)
- {{Uw-ypt0}} — For serious, even if unintentional, violation of BSA's and/or MeritBadgeDotOrg's youth protection, internet safety, and/or personally identifiable information policies and/or guidelines.

SELINSGROVE, PA - The York College Spartan softball team split a non-conference doubleheader on Thursday at Susquehanna University. The Spartans won game one 3-1 before the Crusaders cruised to an 11-3 five-inning win in the nightcap.
The Spartans are now 3-9 overall while the Crusaders stand at 10-6 after the split.
In game one, the Spartans jumped on top in the top of the second. The rally started when junior Hannah Hugel drew a one-out walk. Junior Sarah Harris reached on an error before Carly Farr drilled an RBI single, scoring Hugel and moving Harris to third. Rachel Klein singled to score Harris while Farr moved to third as the Spartan lead grew to 2-0. The Spartans then squeezed home their third run as Jena Ruby plated Farr as the Green and White took control of game one early.
The Crusaders got one of those runs back in the third as Madison Clark had an RBI single with two outs in the frame. Spartan starter Brittany Therres minimized the damage as she got the third out of the inning, stranding two Susquehanna runners in the inning.
Therres got out of a few jams during the later innings of the game. The Crusaders left two runners stranded in the third and fourth innings and Therres got a huge double play in the sixth to hold the Crusaders at bay.
Therres picked up the game one win as she scattered nine hits in her seven innings of work. She allowed one run while she registered two strikeouts and she did not walk a batter during her outing. She improves to 3-4 with the win.
Morgan Lewis suffered the loss for the Crusaders as she allowed three runs, two earned, on six hits in her seven innings of action. She struck out one and walked two as she falls to 3-2 with the setback.
Klein and Farr led the Spartan offense with two hits and an RBI each. Farr also scored for the Spartans as York snapped a five game losing skid.
Brianna Murphy and Kathryn Gilbert paced Susquehanna with two hits each. Clark had the Crusaders' lone RBI while Lauren Gilbert scored Susquehanna's only game-one run.
In game two, the Spartans got off to a good start with a run in the top of the first. After the Crusaders tallied a pair in the bottom of the second, the Spartans scored a pair of their own in the top of the third to take a 3-2 lead.
That advantage would be short lived as the Crusaders scored three in the bottom of the third followed by a six-run explosion in the fourth to blow the game wide open.
Sarah Hoffman earned the win as she tossed five innings, allowing three runs, one earned, on five hits with one strikeout. She improves to 5-3.
Freshman Sara Thacker suffered the loss for York as she allowed four runs on three hits in 2.1 innings of work. She walked three and struck out two as she is still in search of her first collegiate win as she now stands at 0-4.
Lisa Finizio banged out a game-high three hits for the Crusaders while she also scored twice for Susquehanna. Stephanie Chlebove was 2-for-3 with three RBI while Gilbert was 2-for-3 with three RBI and two runs scored. Clark and Brittany Devlin each contributed two hits and two RBI for the 13-hit Crusader attack.
Therres led the Spartan offense with two hits and two RBI while freshman Cara Rubinaccio contributed two hits and two runs scored for the Green and White.
The Spartans travel to Shenandoah to face the Hornets in a non-conference doubleheader on Sunday afternoon. Game one is slated for a 12:00 pm start.
