Post subject: My First Week and Beyond!
Hello all,
I have known about Shovel Gloving for a couple weeks and have completed my first week of Shugging. I have been looking for an exercise program that is simple enough, doesn't require a bunch of equipment, and helps develop functional strength. I had read about and seen folks doing sledgehammer workouts where they whack a tire a thousand times. Seemed like fun, and I started looking for a routine that I could easily follow(I don't like to think a whole lot when I work out.) I typed "simple sledgehammer workout" in to Google and lo, Shovelglove is the third thing that populates. Shovelwhat? Clicked on it and read the synopsis and I was hooked.
I read through just about everything on the website a couple times, checked out the No S Diet information, listened to the podcasts, watched the shugging demonstration videos, purposed in my heart to get a 10lb sledge and started thinking how I could make the routine my own. I started my shugging journey on a Thursday and only did 4 reps on each side for each exercise. I wrote all the exercises in the order I do them on a dry erase board mounted where I can easily see it and I can and have moved exercises around to spread out some of the similar movements so I don't get fatigued too quickly.
I even developed a move unique to me (I think). I call it Praise the Lord, where I do a reverse lunge with the hammer held horizontally in my upturned hands. As I lunge, the leg that goes back is the side that the hammer head on and I lift up the hammer with both hands to shoulder level, then stand up. Repeat.
I understand that I am still in the honeymoon phase of this new workout plan, but everything about this points towards sustainability. Fun movements that mimic real work, rigid respect for the timer and a full body exertion that leaves me feeling worked out and more confident. I am excited about the next time I'm going to need to shovel snow in the driveway!

Welcome. Your Praise The Lord move sounds like Touchdown Jesus, lol. That's a phrase used by Notre Dame football fans. Sounds like your off to a good start. On Reinhard's one video he has a ready made routine if you ever want to try that for variety.

Thanks for the welcome! Thanks also for the suggestion, I will take a look at it. My current routine goes:
Churn Butter
Chop Wood (down stroke)
Flip Lever
Lift Sack
Drive Fence Posts (lands higher at the end than the chop wood)
Tuck Bales
Paddle Canoe
Chop Tree (torso high horizontal stroke)
Hail Reinhard
Toss Over
Upper Cut
Heap Coals (stoke fire)
Rake Leaves
Low Chop (like Tree Chop, but swing ends just below knee level)
Praise the Lord
Now from seeing where 14 minutes took me last week, doing 14 reps (total) of each exercise, I was able to get all the way through once and a second time up to Hail Reinhard. Starting tomorrow, I think I have done the math correctly so that by doing 22 total reps per exercise, that should take me through the whole 14 minutes. I respect not looking at the timer, but it is nice know that I am getting to the end when I am getting to the end, if that makes sense. And even this isn't necessarily permanent.

Welcome, Mandu!
Love "Praise the Lord." May have to try that!
Thanks for sharing your routine (though I'm a little frightened at the sound of "hail Reinhard!").
Best of luck in the honeymooon period and beyond, and please keep us posted,

Second full week completed. I have ditched "more reps, once through" that I tried last week for 7 reps and just keep going. I think the big reason I stopped my modification is that I would get through the whole routine with upwards to thirty seconds left and me wondering, Now what? With the traditional way, I just keep going. It immediately felt like it flowed better when I shugged today. Still felt worked out, still had a nice elevated heart rate.
I did rearrange some of the exercises, got rid of the Rake,it felt like rest in exercise's clothing, Paddle the Canoe is still my WORST ENEMY. Might add the Picking Onions or a Start the Lawnmower type move.
Picked up a copy of the No S Diet. I am making myself eat breakfast now. I was *that* close to trying a piece of bacon before meal time. I declared Thursday and Friday S days because we were travelling although I was able to get in my SG workout in before we left, which I enjoyed. Monday is here and I'm rearing to go.

Here is a nice idea from Puma in Mexico. To showcase their super fast running shoes they encouraged customers to shop as quickly as possible by incentivising speedy shoppers with a discount in a campaign named "The World's Fastest Purchase".
As shoppers entered the store they were prompted to push a big red button that started a timer on their shopping experience. Once pressed customers were issued with a ticket that time stamped the beginning of their shopping challenge. At the cash register, shoes in hand, they hit a second button and a ticket with a "stop" time was issued. The challenge earned the shoppers a varying level of discount from 5% off (for completing the shop in 10 minutes) to 20% off (for completing the shop in 3 minutes). It's great to see a campaign that brings some fun to the in store experience.

Getting your next outdoor dinner, celebration, or other occasion started off in the right direction starts with the shelter. All of the other considerations and accommodations won't matter a bit if you don't get that part right. To satisfy your needs in this area, be sure to check out the vast array of pop-up canopies, party tents, frame- and pole-based structures, high-peak tension tents, and much more. You'll find that there are models designed for a handful of friends and family all the way up to giant structures designed to accommodate hundreds of guests for events like a wedding, rehearsal dinner, or family reunion. Groups of every size in between are covered, too, and there are countless styles, designs, and colors to match the occasion or to complement surrounding buildings. This is a big section with lots of choices, so be thorough in your investigation.
Some of you aren't interested in spending just an afternoon or an evening outdoors, though - you're planning on staying a while. Luckily, the selection of camping tents is just as varied as that of shelters intended for party purposes. There are camping products intended to house one or two people, others designed for extremely wet or otherwise inclement weather conditions, and still more that have multiple rooms intended to shelter an entire family for a more protracted stay in the woods. Tents in every size category are offered in many different colors and styles to fit your personal preferences, and you'll be amazed at some of the details that many manufacturers have added for outdoor enthusiasts. You may even be surprised to know that there are tents in this category that are compatible with portable power sources for those of you who want to spend time outdoors but don't necessarily care to do without all of the comforts of modern living.
In other words, there isn't an outdoor need, an impromptu party, or a gigantic celebration that doesn't have a corresponding product designed specifically to address its unique circumstances. There's a very high degree of likelihood that somewhere in the Camping Tents and Party Tents section you'll find the item to address your particular needs. But even if you don't have a very specific idea what you want in mind, this is the perfect place to start. You'll find as you browse the wide selection that you start to get a good idea of exactly what you need, what is available, and what best fits the budget you have in mind to really take advantage of what outdoor shelters have to offer.

Tech Tip: Replace Canned Air with a Portable Air Compressor
Husky Portable CompressorsKeeping the insides of our computers clean is a good practice, but canned air is expensive and wasteful. One alternative is portable air compressor.
I quit using canned air because it's feeble and it's expensive, both to me and to the environment. How many millions of those one-use cans are cluttering landfills? I tried using a Eureka Mighty Mite vacuum cleaner. That worked OK after I cobbled up an extra-narrow nozzle out of 3/8" clear tubing.
But that didn't work as well as I wanted, so I went shopping for a compressor. (Any excuse for a trip to Home Depot or Lowe's is a good excuse.) Originally I was thinking of getting a portable rechargeable canister, but then I found these two little Husky electric compressors: the Husky Trim-Plus 3 gallon air compressor ($129) and the Husky 1.5 gallon Air Scout Compressor ($99). Canned air goes for around $6 per can here, so the payback time is short.
The Scout is lightweight and has good onboard accessory storage. The Trim-Plus is more powerful and comes with a brad nailer, so I bought it. Both have adjustable outflow pressure. I spent another six bucks on a pistol-grip blow gun. This gets into every nook and cranny in my computers; I take them outside and return the dirt to whence it came. They haven't been this clean since they were new.
These are light-duty inflators; they won't run heavy-duty tools or paint sprayers. But they will quickly inflate almost anything. I use my little Husky to inflate big tractor tires and charge well pressure tanks, and many other random chores.
There are a number of comparable, inexpensive portable air compressors to choose from. If you are not familiar with using a compressor please take the time to read through the safety warnings and instructions. The Huskies are rugged and simple to use, but you can hurt yourself, and remember that thread tape is your best friend.
Update: Some helpful reader suggestions.Be careful of water or oil coming out of your compressor. I've never had a problem with oil, but sometimes there is a bit of condensation in the air tank, so remember to pop the moisture release valve occasionally.
A compressor can be too powerful, so test it carefully first.
Shop vacs blow as well as suck. If you can find or make a suitable nozzle they're a good alternative.
Dyson makes powerful hand-held vacuums, like the new DC31. These are spendy at around $250, but they're easy to tote and do a good job.
With any of these, take the usual electro-static discharge precautions.

Many of us welcome each new year by making resolutions. Of course, most last for a very short period before we are back into our old habits. Predictable creatures, we humans!
This seems a perfect time to bring up a resolution idea aimed at improving relations with our fellow citizens. Over the past few years, many of us seem to have developed the bad, if well-intended, habit of forwarding email messages that are highly critical of those in the other political party without making much of an attempt to verify the content as being truthful.
We often hear the old adage about how to tell if a politician is lying. Of course, the answer is, "His/her lips are moving." Interestingly, we tend to believe most of what our favored political party's candidates and elected tell us, and disbelieve most of what those from the opposite party have to say. Our behavior shows we think politicians are liars — except for our own.
Much of the national media has also learned to spin the truth to fit its audience's favored political party. The management of these various outlets cares much less about our nation, politics or citizens than ratings and the revenues they generate.
The Internet age has allowed an increasing number of ordinary Americans to also become involved in the truth-spinning process. The result is an absolute barrage of negative email messages, mainly between kindred souls who share the same party affiliation. Almost all come with a final sentence: "Please forward to everyone you know."
By doing a lot of fact-checking, I have found far too many of these messages contain false allegations. I must confess that at one time I was guilty of passing on some of these messages to my pals. Then I got burned on a few of them (terribly embarrassing). Recipients would say the message I had forwarded had been discredited by services such as FactCheck.org or Snopes.com. I went to those two websites, and sure enough, they confirmed the messages' contents were false. Since then, I routinely check for veracity before even considering forwarding emails to anyone.
Do you wonder where these fake messages originate? I wouldn't be surprised if many, if not most, of these messages were funded and created by the same Super PACs that bombarded the media with negative messages during the recent campaigns. Frankly, I would be more surprised if they weren't.
Just like the negative ads bombarding voters during the recent campaign, very few of these emails tout the positives of any candidate. Instead, they almost universally attack candidates from the opposing party.
Neither party has the high ground on this. It's even understandable. We are so fearful for our country and our families that we have become overly anxious to do whatever possible to help our favored party. Actually going out in the streets to work for candidates is hard work. Pushing a send button — not so much. And so we participate in what is in fact electronic rumormongering.
Most of the folks I receive these false messages from are good and decent people who I am sure would never knowingly tell a lie. However, in the heat of political debate, they fail to spend the few minutes required to check the veracity of a message before hitting the send button. Do we really want to be no better than the politicians we routinely accuse of lying? Can we not spend just a few minutes checking for accuracy before forwarding a message?
End of sermon; here are my New Year resolutions:
1. Eat healthier. (Are french fries a vegetable?)
2. Exercise more often. (Does keyboard work count?)
3. Don't get mad at other drivers (except for the idiot ones).
4. Say "yes, dear" more often — and mean it. (She'll never buy it!)
5. Spend less time on my computer. (Does switching to my iPad count?)
6. Try harder to be more optimistic. (How, when the sky is falling?)
7. Don't take myself so seriously. (After all, nobody else does.)
8. Lose a few pounds. (I prefer to think of my extra weight as famine insurance.)
9. Stop smoking. (Oops! I already did it 30 years ago.)
10. Resolve to never, ever make another stupid resolution!
I know I'll likely break most of these — but I promise to stop passing on emails without verifying them.
Happy New Year!
These are the opinions of a former electronic rumormonger. What do you think?

A new, much-needed resolution
Many of us welcome each new year by making resolutions. Of course, most last for a very short period before we are back into our old habits. Predictable creatures, we humans!

As the ACC stages its 60th basketball tournament this weekend and celebrates the event's unrivaled heritage, dramatic change looms.
The ACC on ESPN's Big Monday? Consider it done, starting next season.
Occasional ACC tournaments in New York? The conference and the city's two NBA arenas are intrigued.
Moving the ACC championship game from Sunday afternoon back to Saturday night? Also possible.
Commissioner John Swofford addressed those topics during an interview prior to Saturday's tournament semifinals at Greensboro Coliseum.
His most definitive remarks were about the ACC taking over the Big East's 7 p.m., game on ESPN's Big Monday regular-season telecasts. With the so-called Catholic 7 schools taking the Big East name and formidable basketball product to Fox television, the ACC, already partnered with ESPN, became the logical replacement.
"It's likely that we will be part of Big Monday," Swofford said. "I think fans can anticipate that."
With the ACC retaining its Sunday night package on ESPNU, the league will have a basketball presence every day except Friday.
"I don't know that it would be six days every week," Swofford said. "Certainly in some weeks."
The Big East's move to Fox also opens ESPN's prime-time Saturday championship game window. The final Big East title game on ESPN, between Syracuse and Louisville, tipped at 8:30 p.m., Saturday, certainly a more desirable television slot than 1 p.m., Sunday.
"That would be going back to the future, if you will, because ironically we moved to a championship day on Sunday afternoon (in 1983) for television and exposure," said Swofford, then the athletic director at North Carolina. "Either one can work, so we'll see if it comes up.
"We're comfortable with what we're doing now. Of course, some of these developments (with the Big East) are fairly recent."
As fans' obsession with the NCAA tournament bracket and Selection Sunday mushroomed over the years, I've thought the ACC's championship game got lost. As soon as the final horn sounded, if not earlier, everyone was focused on the field's unveiling.
Watch SportsCenter on Sunday night and see how long you have to wait on ACC highlights. Odds are you'll see endless bracket dissection first.
Swofford disagrees with the "gets lost" premise but said league officials have discussed whether a Saturday conclusion would allow the NCAA selection committee to better evaluate ACC teams and their seedings.
"(But) I think our game, and others (the Southeastern Conference and Big Ten) have been played for so long on Sunday afternoon that the selection committee has adjusted to that," Swofford said. "I don't think it's detrimental to us. It's one of the reasons we keep it as early (Sunday) as we do."
With the arrival of Syracuse, Pittsburgh and Notre Dame next season, the ACC grows to 15 teams and a five-day tournament. Switching to a Saturday final would translate to a Tuesday start, which some (many?) prospective ticket-buyers would find untenable.
"There are pros and cons in either direction," Swofford said. "Class time, the closeness to end of regular season. We play some Sunday games on that closing weekend, and I would not anticipate that changing."
Nor does Swofford anticipate ACC schools, even with the new northern presence, severing the tournament's North Carolina (49 of 60 tournaments in the state) ties. But the conference's interest in occasionally taking the event north of the Mason-Dixon Line for the first time is well-documented.
Sports Illustrated's Pete Thamel fueled additional chatter last week with a column suggesting the ACC sign a 10-year agreement with New York's Madison Square Garden, the Big East's traditional home and the sport's most-revered arena.
The ACC and Greensboro are contracted for the 2014 and '15 tournaments, with Jim Boeheim's table at Denny's reserved. The conference could award the 2016-21 events as early as this spring, with Greensboro, Charlotte, Tampa, Atlanta and Washington, D.C., past destinations all, the other possible venues.
"There's no loss of advice about what we should do with our tournament," Swofford said. "The roots and tradition and history of the tournament are here and in Charlotte more than anywhere else. I don't see our schools walking away from that aspect. …
"(But) we should look at New York. I think we'd be remiss if we didn't look at New York. What that ultimately means, it's just too early to know. There's some interest there, I don't think there's any question about that, from (Madison Square Garden and the Barclays Center in Brooklyn) and from our standpoint, too."
As I type, Greensboro Coliseum is electric as Miami and N.C. State clash in Saturday's first semifinal. The subsequent North Carolina-Maryland collision will be no different, and abandoning that would be foolish.
But a conference that includes Boston College, and soon will welcome Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame and Louisville – the latter arrives in 2014-15 and replaces Big Ten-bound Maryland -- also needs to gaze north. And nowhere better than Madison Square Garden -- on a March Saturday night.
"It would be pricier," Swofford said of New York. "But it's also the media center of the world and an exciting city to be in, and I suspect a lot of people would enjoy periodically visiting New York City for this quality of basketball tournament."

As always, the women are all in a fight with one another, so, Alexia invites all of the ladies over to discuss their issues. The goal is to get the problems out in the open and resolve them so they can move on ... yeah, I don't see this working out either.
Marysol begins the discussion by telling Karent that she was offended by the interview she gave to a celebrity blogger that didn't shine the best light on the women. Ana says that at the root of every problem is Karent. Lisa and Joanna come to the defense of Karent. But it does seem that Karent is the common denominator.
Let's recap some of the fights she has started: Physical fight between Adriana and Joanna, the fight between Joanna and Joe Francis, she got in a fight with Adriana for beating her to the tweet, she was asked to leave a party after she got in a fight with Alexis...I'm sure there are more fights she initiated that I can't remember.
Then the discussion--oh who am I kidding... Then the fight, shifts to the physical fight between Adriana and Joanna. Meanwhile, Karent is sitting quietly smiling while Joanna once again fights her battle. Being Karent's friend seems to require a lot of time spent in the line of fire.
Surprisingly, Adriana and Joanna shake hands and say they will let it go and move on. But I'm not convinced.
Joanna invites Karent, Lisa and Roman to her celebrity beach volleyball tournament. But it looks like Roman is going to be a no show. He is still mad at Joanna for how she behaved toward Adriana at Lisa's charity event and they haven't spoken in over a week. But just when it seems that all hope is lost, Roman shows up to discuss Joanna's behavior.
Joanna and Roman head down to the beach to talk about their relationship. Roman says that if their relationship is going to work, Joanna has to stop drinking when they go out. Not a bad suggestion considering her split personality when she drinks. And instead of overreacting, Joanna completely admits she has a problem and agrees to Roman's terms.
Ana struggles to pack up the office she has shared with her soon-to-be ex-husband for the past 20 years. But if she can get past this, hopefully she can finally go through with the divorce. I'm not sure why she is holding onto the marriage anyway? She has a boyfriend, her ex has a girlfriend, they all get along. Let it go, Ana. Move on.
Lisa opens up to Karent about her struggle to conceive. After several attempts and miscarriages, Lisa is starting to get very discouraged about getting pregnant. Surprisingly, Karent is very sweet and gives advice that is not self-centered. Where did this Karent come from? Lisa seems to appreciate Karent's advice and takes her compassion to heart.
In last week's episode we watched as Lea's dog was rushed to the animal hospital pre-gala, and unfortunately the dog isn't going to make it. As a dog lover I can completely sympathize with Lea, and I'm sorry for her loss. The 13-year-old dog, named Leroy was a part of her family. And Lea says she can't deal with losing another animal and doesn't want another dog again. Her maid, Frederica, is helping her plan a ceremony in remembrance of the dog.
Lisa and her husband, the Boob God, begin the plastic surgery planning process with housekeeper Daisy. Shockingly, Daisy has already had a bunch of cosmetic surgeries. But free plastic surgery is free plastic surgery, so I guess Daisy figures 'what's a couple more?'

Who's Got Next? Muhammad & Noel Commit, Updates On Elite Recruits…Posted by Josh Paunil on April 12th, 2012
Who's Got Next? is a weekly column by Josh Paunil, the RTC recruiting guru. We encourage you to check out his website dedicated solely to college basketball recruiting, National Recruiting Spotlight, for more detailed recruiting information. Once a week he will bring you an overview of what's going on in the complex world of recruiting, from who is signing where among the seniors to who the hot prospects are at the lower levels of the sport. If you have any suggestions as to areas we are missing or different things you would like to see, please let us know at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Lead Story: Top Recruit In the Country Chooses Kentucky
Noel's Commitment Gives Wildcats Top Recruiting Class. Class of 2012 center Nerlens Noel, the best player in the high school ranks, committed to Kentucky yesterday over Georgetown and Syracuse. Noel joins shooting guard Archie Goodwin, small forward Alex Poythress and center Willie Cauley-Stein to give head coach John Calipari the best recruiting class in the country again. Goodwin and Poythress are both top-15 guys whereas Cauley-Stein is a top-50 recruit. Noel, a 6'11", 216-pound big man, is the only person on this planet capable of filling Anthony Davis' shoes at Kentucky and will provide an even better defensive presence and a great target in transition. The Massachusetts native is an excellent finisher and has good explosiveness and athleticism all over the court. He also has done a great job developing his offensive game and has shown an improved 15-foot jumper as well as better interior scoring moves. His rate of development is an extremely good sign for Kentucky fans since he's already very talented. The good news for Wildcat fans doesn't stop there since Coach Cal isn't done yet in the Class of 2012. They're still after power forward Anthony Bennett, a top-10 recruit, and have a very realistic shot at landing him too. The addition of Bennett would put this Kentucky recruiting class in the conversation of one of the greatest recruiting classes of all-time.
What They're Saying
- Anthony Bennett on how he would fit in at Kentucky: "I can see myself fitting in [with] all schools but Kentucky, they produce great players. Coach Cal produces them to the league and makes them better and also they win national championships on top of that so it's a great fit." Read the rest of this entry »

Here are the latest short answers to questions posted on our Web site. In our discussion, we will cover topics from Secs. 200-6(d), 210-4(d), 210-5(a), 215-8, 230-56, 250-122(c), 384-3(e) and Table 250-122 of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
Q. Does the NEC require you to color code phase conductors?
A. No. There is no NEC rule requiring color coding of phase conductors, however Sec. 210-4(d) states "where more than one nominal voltage system exists in a building, each ungrounded conductor of a multiwire branch circuit, where accessible, shall be identified by phase and system. This means of identification shall be permitted to be by separate color coding, marking tape, tagging, or other approved means and shall be permanently posted at each branch-circuit panelboard."
This rule applies primarily for commercial and industrial buildings that have 208Y/120V for receptacle circuits and 480Y/277V for lighting and other equipment loads.
If two system voltages are not present, then the NEC doesn't require identification of multiwire branch circuits.
Note: You must identify the high-leg conductor with the color "orange." (See Secs. 215-8 for feeders, 230-56 for service conductors, and 384-3(e) for switchboards or panelboards.) When you install two voltage systems in the same raceway (or enclosure), one system's neutral can be white or natural gray and the other system's neutral must be white with a readily distinguishable different color stripe (other than green), or identified with other effective means. [See Secs. 200-6(d) and 210-5(a).]
Q. Can I use a single equipment-grounding conductor for a nonmetallic raceway containing multiple circuits?
A. Yes. Sec. 250-122(c) covers this issue. When you install multiple circuits in the same raceway, you can use a single equipment-grounding conductor for all circuits. The single equipment-grounding conductor is sized to the largest overcurrent device protecting the conductors in the raceway, in accordance with Table 250-122.

Exhibition basketball games usually expose more problems than solutions.
But after the Lipscomb Bisons knocked off Tusculum 81-59 Thursday night at Allen Arena, coach Scott Sanderson was hard-pressed to find anything to criticize about his team.
"They are all about the team," Sanderson said. "They are all about each other. There is something about the karma of this team that has been completely different.
"My teams have always had pretty good karma. But his one is even better for whatever reason. They should be pretty fun to coach."
Sanderson played `15 players. Twelve of them scored.
Three players finished in double figures with freshman guard Josh Slater leading with 11. Senior forward Eddie Ard and freshman point guard Jimmy Oden each scored 10 points.
"I liked our balance offensively," Sanderson said. "We have a lot of guys who can score.
"Thomas Pfaff and Jason Hopkins have really improved inside. We have a lot of options."
Oden is known for his ability to read the floor and know where to pass the ball.
"Jimmy can finish plays to the basket and he also has very good vision," Sanderson said. "You better be ready to catch the ball because if you are open he is going to get it to you."
Pfaff, a junior center, grabbed a team-high six rebounds.
Guard Kyle Moore scored a game-high 23 points for Tusculum. Forward Jordan Lear added 10 and also finished with a game-high seven rebounds.
"I thought for the most part we were decent defensively," Sanderson said. "I like playing Tusculum because they are very sound offensively and they spread out and make you guard a lot of floor.
"That's hard to do when you have a lot of young guys. I thought we guarded the floor pretty good for our first game, especially early on."
The Bisons shot 51.6 percent from the field (32-of-62) while holding Tusculum to 45.2 percent (19of-42).
"We have a lot to work on," Sanderson said. "We are pretty much a work in progress. We have a long way to go, but for our first exhibition game I was pleased with a lot of things."

Support from the SEA
SEAs can enhance district application and enrollment processes by setting clear expectations regarding timelines and procedures, and are strongly encouraged to communicate them to districts through technical assistance materials and other opportunities. In particular, an SEA could provide districts with its expectations on issues such as frequency and length of sign-up periods and, with respect to SES, participation by providers. SEAs could also provide districts sample application and enrollment forms, and could assist districts in determining appropriate SES enrollment targets.
Holding a calendar planning session. One way in which SEAs can provide technical assistance in this area is through calendar planning sessions. In these kinds of sessions, the SEA can provide districts with a blank calendar and a set of responsibilities and activities involved in implementing public school choice and SES, and then direct the districts to determine where best to place the responsibilities and activities on the calendar. By engaging districts actively in a planning process, hands-on technical assistance opportunities such as these can be particularly helpful to implementation.

About Bring Me the Horizon
Fronted by a tattooed clothing designer and influenced by death metal, grindcore, and emo, Bring Me the Horizon aren't the average deathcore band. The group was formed in 2004 from the ashes of several Sheffield-based outfits, with the 2003 Disney film Pirates of the Caribbean serving as the inspiration for the band's name. Singer Oliver Sykes, guitarists Lee Malia and Curtis Ward, bassist Matt Kean, and drummer Matt Nicholls initially established their own label, Thirty Days of Night, to release their debut EP, 2005's This Is What the Edge of Your Seat Was Made For. Upon signing to the higher-profile label Visible Noise (whose roster also included Bullet for My Valentine and Lostprophets), they reissued the EP to a wider audience. Bring Me the Horizon's full-length debut, Count Your Blessings, appeared in October 2006, with an American release following one year later courtesy of Epitaph Records.
With their second album, Suicide Season, Bring Me the Horizon moved in a more accessible direction and wound up cracking the U.K. album charts. Not everyone approved of the new sound, though, and Ward left the band in early 2009. His temporary replacement was Jona Weinhofen, formerly a member of I Killed the Prom Queen. Weinhofen ended up staying with the band as a permanent member, and the group returned to the studio with producer Fredrik Nordström in March 2010 to begin work on a third album. The resulting There Is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It, There Is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret was released during the latter half of 2010, several months after the band wrapped up its engagement with the Warped Tour. A fourth album, the critically lauded Sempiternal, arrived on Epitaph in 2013, and peaked at number three on the U.K. albums chart. 2015's loosely conceptual That's the Spirit saw the group dropping some of their metalcore tendencies in lieu of a more melodic, alt-metal approach. ~ Stewart Mason

Monica Jones, who, in April, was found guilty of manifesting prostitution, asked the Arizona Supreme Court to overturn her conviction on Tuesday, August 5th.
Jones was charged under Phoenix Municipal Code Section 23-52(A)(3), "manifest[ing] an intent to commit or solicit an act of prostitution." In May, 2013, she accepted a ride from an undercover police officer who claims that her behaviour indicated she was involved in prostitution. The police officer's story relies heavily on the fact that she was wearing a tight-fitting black dress. Jones states that she simply accepted a ride from a handsome stranger. Her attorneys say that Jones' conviction relies too heavily upon the assumptions of the police officer.
In the appeal brief, Jones' attorneys wrote: "Is it impermissible to flirt with someone on the street or in a car? Sell coffee in a bathing suit in a place open to public view? Hail a cab? Wear a 'tight fitting black dress'? It is difficult to imagine how anyone on a Phoenix street (or in a car) would know if he or she were violating the Code," Cabou wrote. "It criminalizes ordinary people, doing ordinary things--things like walking a certain way and asking certain questions--which they cannot know are against the law."
Her attorneys filed an appeal saying that the Phoenix ordinance, which outlaws the intent to buy or sell sex, is unconstitutional in that it criminalises protected rights of free speech, and that it discriminates against marginalised people.
"If I was a white woman walking down Arcadia, I would have never been stopped for manifestation," Jones told reporters on Tuesday. "This law gives police the right to target anyone they feel fit to target."
Laverne Cox, an Emmy-nominated actress and trans woman of colour, was in Phoenix on Tuesday to support Jones and to thank her for bringing attention to an important issue.
"All over the country, trans women are targeted simply for being who they are," Cox said.
"So often our identities as trans women of colour are stigmatised and criminalised … I was so moved by (her) courage … and I just felt I had to be here to lend my voice and whatever platform I have. I think that the goal should be to overturning laws like this and really understanding the kind of environment that we all are creating as citizens of this country for trans women, particularly trans women of colour."
Cox had previously drawn attention to the case at the GLAAD Media Awards in April.

Makes A Statement. Love it....But, because of the gold finishes on drawers and facuet, I'm having a hard time completing the rest of the room with the same finish. The marble top is not a solid black, it has a tiny gray speck in it. Also, divided on the Contemporary style catagory it is put into. Can be either Contemporary or Traditional.
Great Quality. Very happy with the purchase. Quality of build and finish is excellent. Looks great installed. Did not us faucet that came with it. Was a bit too basic for a guest bath. Granite top could be thicker, but is still very nice.
Just Perfect!! Fit perfect in our little bathroom...just installed it last week and have gotten tons of compliments on it.
Beautiful Product. We installed this in a powder room - perfect.
Great purchase. Highlights my marble tile beautifully by opening up the floor in a way a pedestal couldn't and there's decent storage space. The soft closing hinges are phenomenal and the wood is solid. Very well made.
Beautiful Product! This sink is even more beautiful in person than in the picture. We had issues with the shipping of this product, however. It took over three weeks to receive, had numerous issues/excuses and rescheduling of the delivery of this product. Having said that, when both the sink and the cabinet finally arrived, it was well worth the wait!
Good looking, but... For starters,let me say that this is a really good looking, solid vanity. It was incredibly packed & arrived in perfect condition. The marble top & porcelain sink are well done as is the base. The base is not wood, more likely a molded fiberboard. We were aware of this going in, but if you're looking for wood, this isn't the one for you.It looks good in our powder room. It does require quite a bit of modifications though. The opening in the back is exactly 8"& if your pipes are not within that space, the back opening needs to be enlarged. There is a top piece directly under the sink that needs to have holes drilled into it to run the supply lines. And your basebords will require modifcation for a flush fit.
Fine craftsmanship! It is a gorgeous vanity. Looks beautiful in our remodeled bathroom.
The vanity is a decorator's dream for any bathroom setting. These are artfully crafted in styles that range from traditional and Old World to art deco and modern. They feature fine cabinetry and quality fittings for any home space with the added benefits of matching storage chests. Choose for large or small spaces and in a choice of luxurious finishes, in double or single sink models, in vanity sets in glass, or traditional free-standing fixtures with beveled edges, turned legs and warm wood finishes. Try a wall mount model with faucet or with sinks included and add a mirror. With cabinets, you'll enjoy convenient built-in storage for linens, grooming items and other essential things, and some include built on shelves and built in drawers.

18 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 "What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel:
"'The parents eat sour grapes,
and the children's teeth are set on edge'?
3 "As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, you will no longer quote this proverb in Israel. 4 For everyone belongs to me, the parent as well as the child—both alike belong to me. The one who sins is the one who will die.
5 "Suppose there is a righteous man
who does what is just and right.
6 He does not eat at the mountain shrines
or look to the idols of Israel.
He does not defile his neighbor's wife
or have sexual relations with a woman during her period.
7 He does not oppress anyone,
but returns what he took in pledge for a loan.
He does not commit robbery
but gives his food to the hungry
and provides clothing for the naked.
8 He does not lend to them at interest
or take a profit from them.
He withholds his hand from doing wrong
and judges fairly between two parties.
9 He follows my decrees
and faithfully keeps my laws.
That man is righteous;
he will surely live,
declares the Sovereign Lord.
10 "Suppose he has a violent son, who sheds blood or does any of these other things[a] 11 (though the father has done none of them):
"He eats at the mountain shrines.
He defiles his neighbor's wife.
12 He oppresses the poor and needy.
He commits robbery.
He does not return what he took in pledge.
He looks to the idols.
He does detestable things.
13 He lends at interest and takes a profit.
Will such a man live? He will not! Because he has done all these detestable things, he is to be put to death; his blood will be on his own head.
14 "But suppose this son has a son who sees all the sins his father commits, and though he sees them, he does not do such things:
15 "He does not eat at the mountain shrines
or look to the idols of Israel.
He does not defile his neighbor's wife.
16 He does not oppress anyone
or require a pledge for a loan.
He does not commit robbery
but gives his food to the hungry
and provides clothing for the naked.
17 He withholds his hand from mistreating the poor
and takes no interest or profit from them.
He keeps my laws and follows my decrees.
He will not die for his father's sin; he will surely live. 18 But his father will die for his own sin, because he practiced extortion, robbed his brother and did what was wrong among his people.
19 "Yet you ask, 'Why does the son not share the guilt of his father?' Since the son has done what is just and right and has been careful to keep all my decrees, he will surely live. 20 The one who sins is the one who will die. The child will not share the guilt of the parent, nor will the parent share the guilt of the child. The righteousness of the righteous will be credited to them, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against them.
21 "But if a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die. 22 None of the offenses they have committed will be remembered against them. Because of the righteous things they have done, they will live. 23 Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign Lord. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?
24 "But if a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live? None of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed, they will die.
25 "Yet you say, 'The way of the Lord is not just.' Hear, you Israelites: Is my way unjust? Is it not your ways that are unjust? 26 If a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin, they will die for it; because of the sin they have committed they will die. 27 But if a wicked person turns away from the wickedness they have committed and does what is just and right, they will save their life. 28 Because they consider all the offenses they have committed and turn away from them, that person will surely live; they will not die. 29 Yet the Israelites say, 'The way of the Lord is not just.' Are my ways unjust, people of Israel? Is it not your ways that are unjust?
30 "Therefore, you Israelites, I will judge each of you according to your own ways, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent! Turn away from all your offenses; then sin will not be your downfall. 31 Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, people of Israel? 32 For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign Lord. Repent and live!
19 "Take up a lament concerning the princes of Israel 2 and say:
"'What a lioness was your mother
among the lions!
She lay down among them
and reared her cubs.
3 She brought up one of her cubs,
and he became a strong lion.
He learned to tear the prey
and he became a man-eater.
4 The nations heard about him,
and he was trapped in their pit.
They led him with hooks
to the land of Egypt.
5 "'When she saw her hope unfulfilled,
her expectation gone,
she took another of her cubs
and made him a strong lion.
6 He prowled among the lions,
for he was now a strong lion.
He learned to tear the prey
and he became a man-eater.
7 He broke down[b] their strongholds
and devastated their towns.
The land and all who were in it
were terrified by his roaring.
8 Then the nations came against him,
those from regions round about.
They spread their net for him,
and he was trapped in their pit.
9 With hooks they pulled him into a cage
and brought him to the king of Babylon.
They put him in prison,
so his roar was heard no longer
on the mountains of Israel.
10 "'Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard[c]
planted by the water;
it was fruitful and full of branches
because of abundant water.
11 Its branches were strong,
fit for a ruler's scepter.
It towered high
above the thick foliage,
conspicuous for its height
and for its many branches.
12 But it was uprooted in fury
and thrown to the ground.
The east wind made it shrivel,
it was stripped of its fruit;
its strong branches withered
and fire consumed them.
13 Now it is planted in the desert,
in a dry and thirsty land.
14 Fire spread from one of its main[d] branches
and consumed its fruit.
No strong branch is left on it
fit for a ruler's scepter.'
"This is a lament and is to be used as a lament."
4 What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you? 2 You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. 3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
4 You adulterous people,[a] don't you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think Scripture says without reason that he jealously longs for the spirit he has caused to dwell in us[b]? 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says:
"God opposes the proud
but shows favor to the humble."[c]
7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
11 Brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against a brother or sister[d] or judges them speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?
13 Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15 Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes. All such boasting is evil. 17 If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn't do it, it is sin for them.

Gordon Selected to Lead No. 22 Shell-Pennzoil Team
December 14, 2011
"Our first priority is always to look within the walls of Penske Racing when making personnel decisions," said Roger Penske. "We want to reward success. The path we are taking with Todd mirrors what we did with Paul Wolfe who led the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge to a Chase berth in 2011. We think Todd can get the job done in the same manner."
Gordon made the move to Penske Racing in January of 2011. He and Brad Keselowski quickly developed a driver-crew chief rapport that resulted in another successful season, helping make the No. 22 Dodge one of the premier entries in NNS competition.
"I can't thank Roger and everyone at Penske Racing enough for this vote of confidence," said Gordon. "It's an honor to step into a race-winning team. We have a lot of work ahead of us, but this is an organization full of talented people that know how to get the job done. I look forward to getting the Shell/Pennzoil Dodge back in Victory Lane."
Penske Racing continues to evaluate drivers to fill the seat of the No. 22 Shell/Pennzoil Dodge.
Penske Racing is one of the most successful teams in the history of professional sports. Competing in a variety of disciplines, cars owned and prepared by Penske Racing have produced 350 major race wins, 412 pole positions and 23 National Championships.

Big 12 Campus Correspondent
Though she is an accomplished diver who has competed all over the world, Murphy Bromberg gets nervous when she steps to the edge of the 10-meter platform during a meet.
But, with time, she has learned to harness that anxiety into making her dives better. She channels it into what she calls her "powers." Her powers give her confidence and remind her that something good is about to happen. After she controls her breathing and finds her power, she knows she is ready to dive.
At only 18 years old, Bromberg has more than her powers on her side. She also has two national titles.
Volunteer coach and former Longhorn diver Drew Livingston knew early on that Bromberg would be a great asset to the team.
"The first couple of practices that she had here, you could tell she just had raw talent on platform," Livingston said. "She's a work in progress in springboard but on platform you can tell that she has it. More than that, you can see that she has the work ethic that goes along with it. "
Texas diving coach Matt Scoggin has known Bromberg for a few years and has seen her confidence and her strength improve drastically. She is naturally quick, and her increased weight-training regimen since she arrived at Texas has helped her becoming even more competitive.
The summer before she arrived in Austin, she placed seventh in the synchronized platform diving event at the FINA World Championships in Barcelona. Bromberg also claimed the individual platform diving title at the National Diving Championships in August.
Given her platform diving success in 2013, Scoggin believes she can climb up the ranks internationally. But, he knows she also can be an exceptional springboard diver.
"Murphy is still skeptical of springboard but we're going to make her a great springboard diver," Scoggin said. "The results are maybe not what she wants right now. But, we don't really care about the results because her training on springboard is improving exponentially."
Scoggin has coached the Longhorns for many years and has seen many freshmen struggle to balance diving, school and a social life when they are new on campus. He is impressed with Bromberg's ability to focus on diving despite having so many other distractions.
Bromberg doesn't dwell on her age. Her only focus is getting better and achieving her goal of making NCAAs this year and eventually winning the team national title.
"I don't feel any extra pressure being a freshman," Bromberg said. "I think that I put pressure on myself to do well, but I don't really see myself as one of the best divers on the team because I think everybody on the team is so good and I truly mean that. Everyone is incredible. I do put a lot of pressure on myself though. That's just how I am."
Bromberg is very competitive, and diving with high-caliber divers at Texas has already benefitted her. Though she was working with great divers back home in Bexley, Ohio, she was the oldest. Now, she is one of the younger divers and her competitive nature has kicked in. She wants to be at the same level as the upperclassmen at Texas.
Livingston also came to Texas as a platform specialist, but Scoggin trained him to be a springboard diver. With the help of Scoggin, he became a two-time NCAA champion in the one-meter. Livingston is excited to watch her grow, especially since she is only 18 and still has four more years to grow in the Texas program.
"You look at the women that we have on our team and they're very good platform divers," Livingston said. "They're even better on springboard, and that pushes Murphy to be better all around. You'll even see her up there with some of the guys. Our men's divers execute big dives and her eyes will light up. Or it will be the other way around and she will be diving great and the men will say to themselves, 'Now I've got to step it up.'"
When Bromberg is around the pool, she is often unemotional. But that's how she focuses. Bromberg has a dry and witty sense of humor, but when she steps on the diving board, she is unflappable.
Bromberg finished seventh on platform at the 2012 U.S. Olympic Diving Trials. In 2013, Bromberg had a great year with four top-three finishes in her individual events. Her platform victory at the USA Diving Winter Nationals confirmed that she is heading in the right direction to achieving her ultimate goal — becoming an Olympian.
"It was really great to win the Winter Nationals last month after going through such a big change in coming to college and changing coaches," Bromberg said. "It showed me I'm on the right track still and this is where I want to be. It solidified all of my decisions and made me even more excited to be at Texas."

What Christmas cartoon or movie do you watch every year to get into the holiday spirit?
In the nights leading up to Christmas I watch 4 versions of A Christmas Carol starting with Scrooged, then Mickey's Christmas Carol, then A Muppet Christmas Carol, and finally finishing up with the 1970 Scrooge. It's by far my favorite Christmas story.
I also make sure to watch the other classic Christmas movies. Like Die Hard, Gremlins, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Home Alone, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and of course How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the animated one).
Suffice to say, I really love Christmas.
If I had a type it'd be you, fortunately I don't have a type so please stop.
A Christmas Story
The Nightmare before Christmas
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
The Grinch
Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
Santa Clause is coming to town.
Home alone 2 ( i dont care for the other ones as much)
The year without a santa clause

Okay it's Christmas time once again, and as with every other X-mas season, it just doesn't feel complete without watching certain holiday specials. A friend somewhat sheepishly admitted to me today that he had bought the "Charlie Brown Christmas" on DVD because it's his favorite. So be honest, what is your holiday guilty pleasure?
Mine is Scrooge w/ Albert Finney.
Mine would have to be "A Christmas Story" (1983) If you have not seen it I highly commend it, it's one of the most iconic American Christmas films.
Everyone seems to love this film. I have seen it several times, but I just can't get in to it. With the exception of the tongue to the metal post scene, it is priceless.
Every year on Black Friday put up the outside lights then that Saturday put on Elf then put up the Christmas tree and get the inside decorated for Christmas

oh man and how could i forget A Muppet Christmas Carol?

My favorites have to be Charlie Brown Christmas and any winter themed penuts movies. It wasn't a bad tree at all.
The animated How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Scrooged, I love Bill Murray
And any animated version of the Christmas Carol.
Anime of course!
It's foolish to fear what we've yet to see and know. ~Itachi Uchiha

TMZ has learned Larry Birkhead has met the infant he believes is his daughter.
As we first reported, Birkhead and Howard K. Stern have been in settlement negotiations for several days. Birkhead's lawyer, Debra Opri, told TMZ paternity and custody of the little girl are not negotiable. But it would seem Stern is showing signs of bending by allowing Birkhead to visit with the baby.
The meeting took place this past weekend at Horizons in the Bahamas, the house in which Stern is currently living.

The Cleveland woman caught on cell phone video driving recklessly around a city school bus pleaded guilty on Monday.
Shena Hardin's license was suspended for 30 days and she must pay $250 in court costs.
Hardin was also ordered to stand at the corner of East 38th Street and Payne next Tuesday and Wednesday wearing a sign that says, "Only an idiot would drive around a school bus."
The 32-year-old was busted last month with the help of 19 Action News viewers.
Witnesses say Hardin drove on the sidewalk on a daily basis to avoid waiting for the school bus on East 38th Street.
Fearing a potentially dangerous situation, the bus driver captured the act on cell phone. The bus driver then contacted the Third District Police before starting his route.
Officers waited for Hardin, and caught her in the act.

NFL: Refs Banned From Using All Social Media; Press Can't Live Tweet
from the free-speech-ain't-so-free dept
Even odder is that the rules now prohibit NFL referees from using social media, ever. Apparently, some of this is in response to a ref who apologized online for a blown call in the week after it happened. In that case, the ref is an attorney during the week, and apologized via his work email. But that raises all sorts of questions. What if the ref's job during the week requires the use of social media? And, honestly, what's so wrong with letting refs communicate?
Finally, the new rules tell the credentialed media that they can't provide any sort of live "play-by-play" info via social media, though, I can't see how that's enforceable (other than kicking the reporter out of the stadium). Once again, this seems like part of the league's misguided belief that it can control how reporters report on a game. The first link above notes how ridiculous it is that someone sitting in the stands can easily live tweet a play-by-play, while the professional reporters cannot. The whole idea, of course, is that the NFL wants to "protect" its broadcasting contracts, that get sold for a ton. But the idea that a live tweet somehow replaces a TV broadcast is ridiculous. Personally, as someone who follows a bunch of sports reporters on Twitter who do tweet info during sporting events, I find it a useful reminder that I wish I had the time to watch a game...

They're irritating, pop up everywhere, and we've all made them. They are typos.
And unless you were unfortunate enough to spell "SHCOOL" in giant white letters, as did a road crew in North Carolina last week, or neglected to doublecheck your resume before you hit send, probably the mistake didn't wreck your day.
But two authors, Jeff Deck and Benjamin Herson, set off on a cross-country mission to wipe out as many misspellings and unfortunately positioned commas as they could in 2-1/2 months. Armed with a handy Correction Kit – including an array of Sharpies, chalk, and the "elixir of correction" (Wite-Out) – they spotted 437 typos and were able to fix 236 of them. (The corrections kit was not stocked with neon tubing, for one thing, and in other cases, people were adamant about letting the mistakes stand.)
The most frequent typos they ran into were misplaced apostrophes dangling erratically all over the American landscape, but there was no region of the country more error-prone than another. They found typos at museums – the Cartoon Art Museum in San Franscisco had so many that the artists' bios at times were reduced to gibberish – and churches ("Frances of Assissi" is apparently a little-known Spanish variant of the saint's name, or so a tour guide would have them believe). They even found typos at the Grand Canyon.
While their grammarian mission might seem like the most mild-mannered and quixotic of quests, Deck and Herson were argued with, lied to, asked to leave stores, and prosecuted by the US Park Service.
They've recorded their deeds in a new book, The Great Typo Hunt, that comes complete with breezy writing, mock superhero prologues, and a serious mission to return phonics and proofreading to places of honor.
For those who say that the occasional "Thrusday" or "restroom's" is no big deal, Deck and Herson would argue that the proliferation of typos in American places of business are symptomatic of something more than just a moment of carelessness.
"The thing about language is that it's something that we all share," said Deck in a phone interview. "It touches on all aspects of life. When language goes wrong, it can tell us interesting things. The typos were just the surface. Underneath, there's a deeper issue of communication."
"I think it's the same reason we see more pollution," says Herson. "People see more of it on the landscape and get used to it." Also, in today's world, "we're less comfortable walking over to Joe's Barber Shop and saying, 'Hey, you've got a typo on the sign.' "
Deck cites as an example a candy counter in Mobile, Ala., where the store clerk was too afraid of her boss to let them fix a sign reading, "Caution: Do Not Touch Very Hot." She kept looking at the ceiling, as if her boss were watching her through the security cameras.
"I think that's an illusion," says Herson. "The idea that you'll get in trouble for making something better."
Reading about someone altering apostrophes is not going to keep you going for 249 pages, and Deck and Herson get into deeper matters than turning "puding" into "pudding." Besides the eternal lure of the open road, the book offers background into how Deck discovered his inner editor and roped two friends and his girlfriend into the typo hunt. The authors argue strongly for phonics and Direct Instruction in elementary schools and urge people to slow down and take a second look at their writing before tossing it out there to fend for itself. The best parts are the ground-level interactions that illustrate the nature of communication (both good and bad) in modern America.
"It certainly didn't start out as field science in sociology. It sort of turned into that. We would try, in each interaction, to convey through courtesy and good humor that we're not in this to make anyone feel bad or judge anyone. We're just trying to clean up the textual landscape," says Deck. "When people became hostile or defensive, we would try to smooth things over. Being defensive when someone points out your mistake is a natural human reaction. But it's not actually the most productive response when fixing something."
Herson and Deck were careful not to go after anyone who was learning English as a second language, and the Correction Kit did not come equipped with dunce caps or giant pointy fingers. "There's more than enough material to work with native speakers," says Deck. "We focused on text put out in the public sphere, usually in businesses.
"There was no correcting the way people speak or any private communication," adds Herson. "No rapping anyone on the knuckles."
"There's already enough vitriol out there in the world of grammar gurus," says Deck. "We're trying to be the more hopeful alternative."
Besides the errant apostrophe on a sign at the Grand Canyon that landed them in hot water with the US government, the most painful moment for the duo came at a learning store in Ohio that advertised "Year Around Fun" and said children could "Play In Doors" (an impossibility unless you are a character in "Monsters, Inc.").
When Deck and Herson asked if they could fix her sign, the store manager got out a dictionary and tried to argue that the dot dividing "indoors" into two syllables meant it was two separate words. When another employee confirmed the mistakes, she announced she "would rather have a sign spelled incorrectly than a tacky-looking sign." (Some of us might argue that a misspelled sign is, by its nature, "tacky looking," but nevertheless.)
"That was the most painful one for me personally," says Herson. "In that instance, there was nothing we could do."
"It was just the educational aspect of the store that made that one particularly painful," agrees Deck. "It was the fact that they carried important reference sources like dictionaries, but then she didn't actually know how to use it herself."
Then there was a recent book signing at a store in Boston's Logan Airport. "A girl wanted to come in, and her mother said, 'Oh no, Honey. They only sell books in there,' " says Herson, himself a bookseller for the past eight years.
"As she was dragging her away, the girl was saying, 'But I like books,' " Deck adds.
While on tour, Deck and Herson will be scouring the textual landscape for typos once again. If you find and correct any particularly notable typos, feel free to let them know at email@example.com. There's one important contest rule: " Always ask first," says Herson.
They'll be featuring some of the best ones they get on their blog, and once they've received entries from all 50 states, they'll start handing out prizes.
And if you spot any of the little devils lurking in this article, feel free to comment below.

Post subject: Salt Lake City
Have you every visited someplace expecting uninteresting food and been pleasantly surprised? A couple of weeks ago I had such an experience, attended a geology conference in Salt Lake City, Utah. I had spent much time in Utah, although none of it was in the city. As expected, the scenery was spectacular (the worlds largest open-pit mine not withstanding). Salt Lake City is built on the western flank of the Wasatch Mountains and has amazing views in all directions. Other than its natural beauty, the citys claim to fame is that its home to the Mormon Church (Temple Square), which is also quite beautiful. My expectations for food, however, were rather low. My impressions of Salt Lake City before visiting were that it was primarily a city of white, affluent, conservative Christians, and although my 4 days there didnt dispel the demographic stereotypes, I was quite pleasantly surprised by the quantity and quality of the food offerings. I didnt eat a single bland meal, except for Sunday lunch at the mall because everything else was closed.
The most surprising finds were the brewpubs. Utah has very restrictive laws regarding the sale of alcohol. There are no bars, only private clubs, which require the purchase of a membership. Despite this, there were quite a few brewpubs, and they made quite tasty beer. My favorite was Squatters, which has a huge selection of microbrews. The food at Squatters was quite good too. Its all organic and environmentally conscious and they have a nice selection of vegetarian fare.
In addition to the brewpubs, there were also some very good restaurants. My favorite was a Middle Eastern restaurant called Cedars of Lebanon. I actually discovered this place because it was across the street from an Indian restaurant I wanted to eat at, but was closed for remodeling. From the outside, I certainly did not expect the culinary delights I found inside. The menu was large and all the food was absolutely fabulous. They actually have two menus. One for the dining room with tables and chairs (individual entrees) and one for the floor-seating room, which served family style meals on a single platter. I was with two friends so we opted for the floor seating. The hummus appetizer was spectacular and followed by a large tray of couscous with spiced vegetables, garbanzo beans and very tasty lentil soup. The crowning jewel of the meal, however, was the baklava, made the traditional way with rose water, yummm. My only regret is that I didnt discover Cedars of Lebanon on a Friday or Saturday, when they have live belly dancing.
For a quick lunch The Chilean Deli, which had excellent empanadas, hit the spot. As a vegetarian, I only partook in the cheese varieties, but my carnivorous friends assured me the beef was equally scrumptious. Of course, I also had a Chilean dessert. Unfortunately I dont remember the name of what I ate, but it was a flakey pastry horn filled with caramel and dusted with powdered sugar. Very delicious!
Salt Lake City was quite an unexpected culinary delight and Im interested to hear any stories C&Zers may have about making unexpectedly tasty food finds away from home.

And to think my parents went there (Salt Lake) without me! I don't recall any specific restaurants they visited, just that my mom kept sending me photos of their plates! She'd just gotten a camera-phone and I'd get so jealous at all these great meals they enjoyed!
After reading your post, I have such a taste for the meal I had in a FL Ethiopian restaurant - also served on a huge tray and with lots of lentil and potato, also meat stews. Who knew Jacksonville could put up any ethnic delights? (OK, not nice of me!)
I don't know the name of the Chilean dessert, or remember any specific dessert I liked while in Chile. There were a lot of German influences I think, tarts and fruit pastries. As for caramel from south of the border, though, I love Coronado Cajeta Quemada. It's a burnt-goats-milk caramel, truly yummy dulce de leche. I can eat it off a spoon. I bet you can find some in an Atlanta grocers, and maybe get 'empty' horns from a baker to try to re-create the dessert.

Glad to hear you ate well while in town.
When friends come to visit, they expect the scenery, but always leave with a much better impression about the food. You're lucky that you were downtown (I remember seeing a boatload of very scientific looking folks walking up and down West Temple)--most of the best food is there.
I LOVE Squatters--a good friend of mine is the chef there. I can tell you that he is certifiably crazy. And there, it translates to good food with a conscience. If you like Lebanese food, there's a place in the Sugar House neighborhood called Mazza.
In general, there are great places to eat in town. You just need to dig a little. If you're ever back in town for the conference, feel free to holler and I can send along a list of places you should check out next.
Happy eating!
