Thank you to all for your comments. I am going to just add a couple of notes because I miss read the instructions and I didn't include a brief description of why I chose this article.
Technology in school not always best, study says
The headline initially attracted me to the article because I was starting my master's on-line and I'm interested in using technology in the classroom. Was it referring to K-12 classrooms or University type courses? The article is making reference to digital natives and how savy they are but yet young people are not attracted to on-line learning. So why is this? The article goes on to explain that perhaps it's not about them being tech savy but about what fits each individual person and how they choose to learn. Kind of the one size doesn't fit all approach doesn't always work. We've known this for some time in education, but do we all choose to follow this train of thought?
For some of us, the traditional classroom setting works and for others they learn by doing while others learn through other mediums. What I find most interesting now after having just listened to the podcasts Joanne posted, is perhaps the "digital natives" are not as tech savy as we thought they were. If they are not, then this explains why more students prefer lecture type classes, are more statisfied and prefer face to face classes than high-tech classrooms.
Now I'm interested in this myth of why the "younger generation" may not be as digitally connected as we originally thought they were.
I've got some searching to do for my next current events post.

Looks like Anonymous stopped the election from being stolen in 2012. According to their press release they installed firewalls in the FuckingRepublican's system designed to flip the votes in Ohio, Virginia, and Florida. That may be the reason Rove freaked out when they announced that Ohio had gone for Obama. Interesting that Ohio's election computer system crashed at the same time this election night as it did on election night in 2004. In 2004 when the system came back up aWol had the most votes even tho exit polls showed Kerry leading. I've thought that the election in 2004 was stolen in Ohio and it looks like that was the first run for hacking the system to flip the vote. This time they needed more and set it up for more states. But even with these three states RMoney would have come up short!!
One of the things I've worried about ever since they started using touch-screen voting machines with no paper trail is that someone could hack into the system and flip the vote to steal the election. Or just put in the votes they want to get the result they want.
There are articles in Salon, Examiner.com, and a number of others when I googled this. One of the hits that came up is the drudge report, but I didn't bother to look at it. I have never looked at that POS, and I don't intend to start now.
And this from truthout.org.

Women In Sports Day At Davidson
Girls in kindergarten through 12th grade are invited to attend a free sports clinic hosted by Davidson College in honor of National Girls and Women in Sports Day. The clinic is February 9 at 1pm in the college's Belk Arena. There is no pre-registration. Davidson women's basketball coach Annette Watts will speak about the changes in women's sports and the effect they have had on her career as a player and coach. The clinic also will feature student athletes and coaches from the following sports: basketball, lacrosse, field hockey, tennis track and field, swimming and diving, soccer, volleyball and cross country. After the clinic, all participants who would like to attend the 3pm Davidson women's basketball game against Appalachian will be admitted free. Family members of participants age 12 and under also will be admitted free.
How about the new level of grit Jennifer Capriati showed in defeating Martina Hingis for the Australian Open tennis title? Not many players on any level come back from a set and 4-0 down to win. . . The Carolina Panthers' new head coach John Fox turns 47 on February 8. But he won't have long to celebrate, given the work that needs to be done. Refreshingly, the Virginia Beach, VA native brings a visible passion to the game. And, according to a recent story in Newsday, is "wildly popular among his players.". . . It's going to be interesting to see how the Charlotte Sting is run and managed this summer if the Hornets are no longer here. To date, all WNBA teams have been operated by an NBA counterpart in the city where they play. . .After starting 5-5, the Charlotte 49ers men's basketball team won seven of its last eight games through January 26. Tune in the 49ers on ESPN2 against Cincinnati on Wednesday, February 6, but don't get your hopes up too much. Cincinnati was unbeaten (7-0) in Conference USA through January 29 and handily defeated the 49ers earlier this season. But given Charlotte's improved inside play and reduced turnovers, an upset might be in the offing. *

With the micro:bit finally making its way into our schools and nearly into the hands of young makers around the United Kingdom, we are now starting to see a few teething problems from educators.
One issue that sprang to the foreground involved shorting the GPIO pins which can cause the micro:bit to get rather warm. In normal operation the micro:bit runs absolutely fine and has no issues, but in this particular case the educator had tried to create a traffic light simulator with three LEDs, red, yellow and green, all of which were directly used with the board, thus causing the LED to short each other out.
Just had GREAT yr4 after school club using #bbcmicrobit 😀 BUT trying2do traffic lights & struggled w/ short circuits pic.twitter.com/xsp1upJs3q
— Ben Smith (@ManchesterBudo) 23 February 2016
Normally the micro:bit is used via crocodile clips that connect to the pins at the bottom of the board. But using crocodile clips with components as small as an LED can be quite troublesome.
So the problem we faced was:
How can I use the micro:bit with a breadboard to prevent shorts from happening?
In order to properly create a circuit, we would need to use something that could secure the components yet still be electrically conductive. So with a little ingenuity and a lot of prototyping we found an ideal solution.
For this project you will need.
M4 Countersunk Machine Screw 12MM (FNCP4M12)
Nylon M4 Nut (FN00710)
M4 Nylon Washers (FN00702)
Solid core hookup wire (MK00170)
A red LED (SC11575)
Step 1: Trimming the wire
We will need to cut and strip 5 wires which we will use to connect the micro:bit to a breadboard.
Typical colour coding for wiring is to use red to indicate a live voltage, in this case 3V. Black is used to indicate a Ground wire, often referred to as GND.
For wires 0, 1, 2 pick any colours that you wish.
Using a wire cutter, cut around 15cm of wire for each colour.
Using a wire stripper, strip 1cm of wire from one end, and then strip approx 3cm of wire from the other end.
Step 2: Building the kit
Take one of the countersunk machine screws and insert it into 3V.
Place a nylon washer on the machine screw thread.
Take the wire and wrap it around the machine screw, ensure that it wraps around the screw multiple times and that it is not in contact with the micro:bit.
Take a nut and secure it to the machine screw so that it is firmly in place. Do not use any tools for this step as you may damage the micro:bit.
Repeat this step for the remaining pins.
Once complete it should look similar to this.
Step 3: Attaching the breadboard
For this step we will need:
When working with hardware and software, it is always prudent to test the hardware before you write any code. Identifying that the hardware is working enables us to quickly move on to writing code that will control the hardware.
To test our hardware, we shall use a breadboard which is a semi-permanent method of building a circuit. A breadboard has a series of holes arranged into columns and rows.
An LED is a Light Emitting Diode, and when powered it lights up. An LED has two legs, a long leg which is called the Anode – this leg receives power. The shorter leg is called a Cathode and this is connected to Ground, often referred to as GND or sometimes as minus sign (-).
For our first circuit, we shall use the wires connected to 3V and GND. Insert the LED as per the image, with the long leg to the top of the board, the short leg of the LED should be inserted a few rows down the board.
Now take the wire from 3V and connect it *in-line* with the long leg of our LED. Now take the wire from GND and connect it *in-line* with the short leg of our LED.
Your LED should now light up.
Congratulations! You have successfully built the kit.
Flashing an LED
Step 1 – Building the circuit
To continue our success, let's build a simple circuit, in fact, it's so simple we only need to alter one wire from our test project.
The red wire that is connected to 3V will need to be removed from the circuit. In its place on the breadboard we shall use the wire from Pin 0 on the micro:bit.
Step 2 – Coding the project
On your computer, open the web browser and visit https://www.microbit.co.uk/create-code
Click on the New Project link in the Microsoft Block Editor section to open a new page, this new page is our coding suite, but it is rather blank Looking to the left we can see a series of menus.
Look for the menu labelled "Loops", left click on the menu and a series of blocks will appear. Using the left mouse button, click and drag "while true" from the menu and drop it into the main window. This loop will run any code inside of it forever.
Look back at the menu, find the Pins menu, left click on it and choose "digital write (0,1) 1 to pin P0". Drag this block and drop it inside of the loop. By default, this block is set to turn on Pin 0. In coding 1 is equal to on and 0 to off.
Now look for the Basic menu, left click on it and choose the "pause (ms) 100" block, drag it and place it under the previous block but inside of the loop. Milliseconds is abbreviated to ms and 100 is equal to a tenth of a second. To change the pause to 1 second, left click on the value and type in 1000.
From the Pins menu grab another "digital write (0,1) 1 to pin P0" and place it under the pause block. This time change the value of "1" to "0" indicating that we wish to turn the pin off.
Finally, add another "pause (ms) 100" block under the previous block but still inside the loop.
Your code should look like this.
Step 3 – Getting the code on to our micro:bit
To start this step, you will need to attach your micro:bit to your computer using a micro USB to USB lead.
When a micro:bit is attached to a computer it appears as a standard USB flash drive, handily enabling us to copy our code onto it, but where is our code?
To download a version of our code we first need to click on Compile. This will trigger the micro:bit website to compile (which means convert our code into something that the micro:bit will understand) our code and then trigger a download to our computer.
To add that code to our micro:bit we shall now copy the downloaded file onto the micro:bit flash drive.
Your micro:bit will flash a few times as the code is uploaded to the board. Let this process run until complete. Once complete you will see that the LED attached to Pin 0 is now flashing rather fast, indicating that we have successfully created the project.

Modular wine racks are a great investment because they can be modified to fit anywhere plus they are not expensive and they come in many different finishes and grains. Decorative racks are available in a number of different styles, ranging from metal racks to wrought iron racks. There are many different types of wine cellar racks to install in your wine cellar, the types are wooden, metal and there many others. It is extremely essential to carefully store the wine bottles in the cellars and wine racks seem to be the only possible solution to this need. Having a system that can cool wine is very important especially in a wine cellar, if you don't have a wine cooling system the wine cellar is not worth the bottles in the cellar, the cellar needs to be cool to operate correctly.
Now that you have an idea of the quantity of wine to store, and the size of your space, it is time to start browsing. If you have a small amount to store and no floor space, a hanging wine rack would work best. You can find hanging racks made of wood or metal. Some may have shelves above for storage, or may simply hold bottles. They come in designs ranging from vintage to traditional to modern. If you have a small amount of wine and are looking for something more traditional, try a wine holder that stands. Some are made just to hold wine, or some have table tops like a small end table. You may also look into caddies that allow enough space for pouring drinks on the top surface and storage below.

I find the most interesting part of this image to be the manner the light splits the dove and the greenery on the right side. It is not a white dove nor are there olive leaves on the right but artistically I see peace divided. Perhaps a theme to consider when critically looking at and processing the image.
The focal point on the bird looks tight and the detail is there. My first opinion is that the exposure on the right is pretty good and dove is a tick under.
Perhaps a shady pigeon is just that and it can be filed in the "pretty good" folder.
My 2 cents...

As the speed of technological advances accelerated in civilian applications, so too warfare became more industralised. The newly invented machine gun and repeating rifle redefined firepower on the battlefield, and, in part, explains the high casualty rates of the American Civil War. The next breakthrough was the conversion of artillery parks from the muzzle loading guns, to the quicker loading breech loading guns with recoiling barrel that allowed quicker aimed fire and use of a shield. The widespread introduction of low smoke (smokeless) propellant powders since the 1880s also allowed for a great improvement of artillery ranges.
The IRT model underlying ASVAB scoring is the three-parameter logistic (3PL) model. The 3PL model represents the probability that an examinee at a given level of ability will respond correctly to an individual item with given characteristics. Specifically, the item characteristics represented in the 3PL model are difficulty, discrimination (i.e., how well the item discriminates among examinees of differing levels of ability), and guessing (i.e., the likelihood that a very low ability examinee would respond correctly simply by guessing).

Welcome To My New Room!!!!
ARTWORK!!!! Artist of The Month board.
My large wood shelf for cereal box sketchbooks
My college books, Personal library.
Reading center. I am working with the library to have a second option for students when they finish an art project early. Read or Sketchbooks. The books on the shelf will rotate every two months. The books are "art" related or award winning illustrations.
This summer I spent some time moving three art classrooms into one. I am blessed to not only work in a building that wants me, respects me, and appreciates me... I work in a district that does the same. After some retirements, I moved into the main art room at the elementary I have worked part time in the last three years. I am spoiled, the room as you see is probably the third largest room in the school next to the gym and library. I am still going through things and making it my own, but after two months I have what you see above.

RobertsCare: How the chief justice redefined the Affordable Care Act just for the GOP
ObamaCare is dead. What we have now is RobertsCare. And if you're a Republican, and if you'll take the time to read Chief Justice John Roberts' majority decisions on NIFB v Sebelius in 2012 and on King v Burwell last week, you'll know he just gave you a perfectly wrapped Christmas gift in June.
It's time to stop complaining about the Affordable Care Act and talking about repealing it, because in siding with the liberal wing of the Supreme Court, the chief justice has effectively rewritten the law. And the rewrite is just what the GOP needed, because it puts the future of RobertsCare squarely in the hands of the Republicans who control Congress.
The GOP owes Roberts a thank-you note. Here's why:
* Three years ago, in his first opinion, Roberts redefined the ACA's individual mandate as a tax – something the Obama administration had adamantly maintained it wasn't, because the bill never would have made it through Congress if it had. But by redefining the mandate as a tax, Roberts left open the opportunity for Congress to decide how to apply it, repeal it or change how it is calculated. That's because those decisions are within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of our government, and both branches of our legislative branch are controlled by the GOP.
It's time to stop complaining about the Affordable Care Act and talking about repealing it, because in siding with the liberal wing of the Supreme Court, the chief justice has effectively rewritten the law.
* Also in the 2012 ruling, Roberts ruled that it was unconstitutional to compel the states to expand their Medicaid programs in order to continue to receive funding for them, as the ACA had intended. By making expansion optional, Roberts gave governors the flexibility to decide the best ways to create solvent Medicaid programs that didn't bankrupt their states. Now, as baby boomers increasingly become senior citizens, the risk pools for Medicaid are increasing – just as they are for Medicare – and the funds to pay for them just aren't there. Fixing that, too, falls to the legislative branch of government.
* Last Thursday, Roberts ruled that federal subsidies for health insurance must be made available not only to people in the states that created their own health exchanges, but also to people who signed up for the federal exchange in states that didn't create them. The Republicans were up in arms, but they should have been grateful – because now Congress can take a hard look at the funding for the subsidies to ensure that the program is solvent. If the subsidies had been struck down instead, the Republicans in Congress wouldn't have been able to maneuver a quick fix for them. More than 6 million people might have been suddenly stripped of their health insurance, and the Republican governors in their states would have shouldered the blame.
That's why what Roberts has done is brilliant. He's put three key components of the ACA – a tax (not an "individual mandate") on people who don't buy insurance; the ability of the states to regulate their Medicaid programs; and the funding of subsidies – back into the hands of a Republican Congress. It's up to the Republicans in the House and Senate – not the Democrat in the White House – to look at the funding of these three components and to determine how to make RobertsCare – not ObamaCare – economically sustainable. The math still doesn't add up, so here's the chance to play the hero.
Our elected representatives need to look specifically at:
* The enforceability of the tax and the fact that the penalties kick in full-force next year. Congress has to put in place not only the measures by which the IRS will enforce the tax, but also a way to ensure that the penalties and the subsidies are adequately calculated for people's incomes. This problem still needs to be fixed for the program to be solvent.
* Whether expanded state Medicaid programs are actually meeting the needs of individuals, or if the federal government is just writing blank checks to support programs that will never become solvent. This will require establishing ways to measure Medicaid performance in every state.
* Keeping insurance costs under control, so that subsidies remain reasonable. If the insurance companies continue to dictate market pricing, as they already are in terms of reducing competition and buying up provider systems, it will be increasingly challenging to give people the choices they need, even with subsidies.
These challenges are squarely in the hands of the Republicans in Congress, not the Obama White House. We're dealing with RobertsCare now, and it's a good thing. Let's get to work and make it work.

Let's get ready for the warmer months! Fashionistas have loved the website WhoWhatWear.com during the last couple of years and it serves as great source of inspiration for us at BurdaStyle, too. They not only feature the most popular brands, but also capture street styles in New York, Paris and Milan. One of their newest articles about spring styles even made us recreate some of their street style outfits with our BurdaStyle patterns. After picking suitable shirts, pants and dresses, we added some cool accessories for every outfit. Here we go…
Accessories and denims via Shopbop, Nordstrom and H&M
This outfit can be recreated with nice cotton fabric for a one shoulder blouse and a green silky fabric for the vintage style high-waisted trousers. We like these pineapple accessories to go with it!
Leather skirts are an all-time favorite. In 2017 they are worn in combination with a chique cold-shoulder blouse, matching heels and a white clutch. As the blouse's fabric has red stripes, we chose red accessories like hairbands, a ring or nail polish and matching lipstick.
Add some pink to your life! The dress-over-cropped-jeans trend is still on. We chose this pattern for a long sleeve sheath dress that can be sewn with two slits. Why not add some leopard accessories?
Again we have a dress over cropped denim style. This time it's a trumpet sleeve maxi dress which should be sewn with slits to make the trousers visible. Add some mules and a big belt and take it to the streets!
Culottes can be worn in so many different ways: We like the more relaxed combination with an oversize denim jacket and a white shirt! Metallic sock booties make the look more glamorous, but they can also be replaced by "flatform" shoes or pointed ballerinas!
This Plus Size combination is chic but super relaxed. A boyfriend blazer is worn over a striped shirt, both with small patterns. Cropped jeans, flats and a clutch make this simple outfit fashionable.
What is your favorite spring trend?

IV.vii. Ophelia's Death
Enter QUEEN GERTRUDE
CLAUDIUS: How now, sweet queen!
QUEEN GERTRUDE: One woe doth tread upon another's heel,
So fast they follow; your sister's drown'd, Laertes.
LAERTES: Drown'd! O, where?
A strange question. Not "how", but "where". The "why" is self-evident, and so perhaps is the "how". Laertes may assume it's a suicide and not an accident, from what he's seen of his sister's madness, and only wants to go to her.
QUEEN GERTRUDE: There is a willow grows aslant a brook,
That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream;
There with fantastic garlands did she come
Of crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples
That liberal shepherds give a grosser name,
But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them:
The vegetable imagery, already associated with Ophelia, is here distinctly melancholy. The scene takes place by a "weeping" willow, and dead men's fingers are at once a reference to her dead father and through their grosser name (usually dogstones, but there's a selection of testicular nicknames that might be appropriate), to the question of sexuality and whether or not she slept with Hamlet. The two ideas intermingled in her mad rants.
There, on the pendent boughs her coronet weeds
With "coronet" we get the image of a flowery crown, a parody of the crown she might have worn had she become Hamlet's queen. Like Hamlet, her royal destiny has been aborted by Court intrigue.
Clambering to hang, an envious sliver broke;
When down her weedy trophies and herself
Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide;
And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up:
The mermaid image takes us to the sea on which Hamlet has recently sailed. Like her, his life has been saved by that sea, but only temporarily. For Ophelia, death comes swiftly. Hamlet gets another Act, but no more.
Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes;
As one incapable of her own distress,
Or like a creature native and indued
Unto that element: but long it could not be
Till that her garments, heavy with their drink,
Pull'd the poor wretch from her melodious lay
To muddy death.
LAERTES: Alas, then, she is drown'd?
QUEEN GERTRUDE: Drown'd, drown'd.
LAERTES: Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,
And therefore I forbid my tears: but yet
It is our trick; nature her custom holds,
Let shame say what it will: when these are gone,
The woman will be out. Adieu, my lord:
I have a speech of fire, that fain would blaze,
But that this folly douts it.
KING CLAUDIUS: Let's follow, Gertrude:
How much I had to do to calm his rage!
Now fear I this will give it start again;
Therefore let's follow.
In reality, Claudius fears Laertes' rage will be smothered by this new grief, though he says the opposite. We'll see how the acting and staging impacts the sequence in the weeks to come.
2 comments:
Did Gertrude watch the girl die and do nothing?
Well, okay, how 'bout this.
Given that:
~ Gertrude tells everyone a story about how Ophelia died.
~ Gertrude had hoped that Ophelia would marry Hamlet.
~ Gertrude insists that Ophelia be buried in the churchyard (or at least influenced the coroner), which she should not if she committed suicide.
~ Ophelia is pregnant.
It is suggested on the above site that perhaps Gertrude helped Ophelia commit suicide because it was her best option, being pregnant with the child of the exiled prince who killed her father.
But I think another option (that Shakespeare alludes to with Ophelia's the list of herbs in Act 2) is that Gertrude helps Ophelia get an abortion. And either the abortion killed her (as was likely in the 15th century) or caused an infection which led to Ophelia's "insanity" and later death. Either way Gertrude helped cover up her true cause of death with the "she drowned, accidentally, and quite slowly, but nobody could possibly help her" story.

I've seen that theory, and it's a legitimate take on the story, though by no means the only possibility.

This is a good brief – being a fly on the wall at Otto's.
A few sessions in the coffee house, scattered over a couple of weeks, should be enough. And I'll have a chance to track down a useful magazine article which I've seen in Otto's before (more of which later).
This gig suggests I'm being voyeuristic. Maybe I am. But mostly I'd call it observing.
The first morning in Otto's (a cold and cloudy Friday) is warm and steamy. Two city professionals (both male) are volleying global markets jargon like it's a tennis match. I can't keep up. It's all about market volatility … equity risk … negotiations … monetising. Their energetic spiel, amplified by body language, makes them hard not to notice. They order more coffee – this can only get better.
On the other side of Otto's sit two women and a well-mannered dog. Their talk is quiet, almost subdued. It's like they're the Yin to the city guys' Yang (the latter are now discussing the merits of various far-flung travel destinations so enthusiastically – Borneo or Bali – I'm wistfully taking notes unconnected to this spy-like post).
Someone runs in to drop the daily papers on the window bench beside me – Nigel Farage's name is in bold, and Donald Trump's face stares out. I don't feel like holding his gaze.
Instead, I rifle through some old National Geographic magazines stacked in the corner, and strive but fail to find the article I remember seeing here before – an insight into the Teenage Brain. Another parent must have got here first.
You see, Otto's is that kind of place. You feel you can stop by, at any time, to search ancient magazines for wise words on dealing with troublesome teenagers. A warm welcome always awaits, and combined with a coffee (roasted in-house), you tend to feel you are winning.
Even on the day I go in, ready to spy upstairs, and find no-one there. Drat. But then the offbeat sound of background reggae music begins to relax me, and I drink my coffee in delicious solitude. I note a pretty painted ceramic plate on the wall with a small sign saying: "Mum's work. £20."
Over the weeks, I watch all sorts drop by Otto's: young and old, couples and dogs, mothers with their identikit offspring, and loved-up teenagers from the local school fuelling up at break time. Often there are creative types perched by the windows, scratching their heads as they think, working through ideas to tap into their laptops.
Some rush in for takeaway drinks, others linger over coffee in the cosy upstairs … then stay on for brunch. I see runners speed by, then turn back to stretch in the small garden next door, before being tempted inside for a frothy coffee reward.
And I like that a local figure, a simple soul, can walk in and be served his customary cup of tea at his usual place without even having to ask.
The chats people have can be intriguing:
- A foodie's fondness for vacuum-packed frankfurters.
- A daughter's daily routine of dyeing vegetables and lying with cucumber slices over her eyes.
- Monetising air miles (guess who said that?).
- The oddness of OCD.
- "I've lost my friend – have you seen her?" says one lady, putting her head around the door.
One Saturday, the morning after Otto's tapas supper club, I go in with my son. The place is buzzing – people are standing or sitting with market day shopping bags, laughing and calling to one another. Have we joined the tapas after party?
Jack greets us, in his element, "Hey there! Everyone's here!" And the music begins to play.
The Armchair
Not once during my visits do I bags the coveted Armchair. It's leathery-old, well-worn and occupies pride of place by the front counter and its heaps of cakes. From here you can see everything and everybody, and you can hear the percussive rhythm of coffee being made – the pouring of coffee beans and the hiss of water, followed by "Service!" – all washed down with its beautiful aroma.
In The Armchair, you can simply be.
Off-duty (from being a voyeur) I visit Otto's with a friend and her dog. It's busy but The Armchair is free. A chance to observe at my leisure, interspersed with great chunks of gossip. The more we talk, the louder we get, and when another friend walks in, it becomes a small-scale cacophony. We discuss work, friends, travel plans. I talk teenage angst. My friend orders a bespoke bacon bagel and asks for her coffee to be made just so, so I tell her she's like Sally Albright from When Harry Met Sally.
I don't notice the man by the window with a notebook. Not until it's time to go, and he's watching us rise from our seats. He has a smile on his face and a pen poised in his hand. I wonder if he's waiting for The Armchair, or is he scribbling lines about overly loud middle-aged mums as material for his next piece?
Perhaps both – perhaps the tables are being turned.

Sargent College
The Green Office Certification initiative was developed to raise awareness, educate, and provide measurable guidelines for greening the office environment. The initiative was first discussed in May 2010 when Boston University's Energy Conservation and Sustainable Buildings & Operations Working Groups created a task force to address the impact of the behavior of faculty, staff, and students on campus.
In December 2010 sustainability@BU piloted the program at Sargent College. The faculty and staff in Sargent College provided ongoing input. As a result, sustainability@BU was able to make improvements and re-pilot the Green Office Certification in February 2011. Because of the support of the Sargent College faculty and staff, sustainability@BU was able to officially launch the Green Office Certification to the rest of the campus in March 2011. Sargent College has had 34 staff or faculty participate since the first pilot
Because of the assistance of Sargent College, the Green Office Certification initiative has gained a lot of traction at Boston University. As of July 2011, sustainability@BU has audited over 250 offices in buildings and schools located on both the Charles River Campus and the Medical Campus.

Gendered Artistic Positions and Social Voices

Gendered Artistic Positions and Social Voices
The history of women's art and gendered cultural practices has had a troubled record in Hungary as in many countries of East-Central Europe, and it mostly features as a missing phenomenon. This "lack" is often attributed on the one hand to state-socialist government policies that "emancipated" women at the same time as they hindered grass-roots social movements, including feminism, and on the other hand, to a re-traditionalizing social environment after the political changes of 1989. Beata Hock critically re-examines the supposed absences and presences of feminist cultural practice in Hungary with a focus on fine arts and cinema. The gendered dimensions of art production are explored in relation to larger social and cultural contexts in order to offer a uniquely interdisciplinary account.

Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2008, The White Tiger tells the sorry truth about life for the vast population of India living in poverty. Through the relaxed and often humorous voice of its irreverent narrator, Balram Halwai, or 'The White Tiger' as he so aptly names himself, this novel traces the powerful and shocking revelations that shake one man's very existence to the core.
From corrupt politicians and policeman, to the unrelenting nature of work for any who are even lucky enough to find it, The White Tiger looks beneath the shining buildings and growing economy seen by the rest of the world. As history has often shown, prosperity feeds off of poverty, a terrible aspect to life, but one which is certainly apparent in the brutal caste system of India.
What is deeply saddening about this novel is how such abuses of power and severe differences in wealth are simply accepted by all. The White Tiger does not ask for sympathy, he does not beg for aid, he simply speaks of his life as it is. And this is what makes this novel so powerful.
"Do we loathe our masters behind a facade of love – or do we love them behind a facade of loathing?"
In Adiga's masterful telling, the relationship between servant and master is laid bare. Life for millions of the 'employed' within India relies on an antiquated, truly disproportionate system of wealth, where drivers burn plastic for warmth while their masters drink and shop.
The White Tiger is a tale of sorrow, but it is also one of awakening and rebirth. From the depths of poverty, depravity and degradation, one man emerges out of the masses and realises his true worth. But for most, there is only darkness.
Length: 321 (Atlantic Books)

Basis for Sami-language IT support
Requirements on IT support for the Sami languages have been specified in a number of documents. The most important ones:
Request for quotations issued in 1997 by "Samisk datautvalg" (Sami Committee for Computer Standardization). The specifications in this document form the basis for the Windows plug-in software "Levi", developed by a Norwegian consultancy, for the 8-bit systems Windows 95, 98 and ME. ("Levi" is available as "free-ware" on the website of the Norwegian Sami Parliament. It is not supported by Microsoft!)
Swedish "Statskontoret" (Swedish Agency for Administrative Development) technical standards TN35 and TN36 published in 2001, "8-bit coded character sets for Sami languages" and "Support for Sami languages in Swedish data processing". These standards include the requirements in the above-mentioned document, but also specify 16-bit coding (ISO/IEC 10646 and Unicode) as well as new keyboard layouts. The computer industry has however not implemented any solutions based on these documents. They are available on the Statskontoret website http://www.statskontoret.se
Documents developed for the Sami Parliamentary Council 20022003 and published by the Norwegian Sami Parliament. They are based on both the "Samisk datautvalg" and the Statskontoret publications, but constitute an extension of their contents. The base document is Sámediggi 01/850-51 "Requirements for support of Sami languages in data processing". It was endorsed by the Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish Ministers responsible for Sami affairs and the Presidents of the three Sami Parliaments in their annual meeting 2002 as "a basic document where the issue of support for Sami languages in data processing is concerned."
The base document has later been complemented with Sámediggi 01/850-86 "Recommendations for PC-type keyboard layouts" and Sámediggi 04/560-1 "Information on IT 'cultural elements' for Sami languages". The Microsoft support for the Sami languages is in conformance with these three documents, from Windows XP Service Pack 2 onwards (although some defects with regard to Sami at present exist in application software, e.g. in Microsoft Office).

I want to apologize specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested on a D.U.I. charge.
That's nice, Mel. By the way, how's that Disney/ABC miniseries on the Holocaust coming along? Just dropped? Dropped today, you say? Shocking.
But would it have killed Disney and ABC to admit that they're dropping him because of his xenophobic remarks? Will the rest of Hollywood have the guts to drop him too? And for good? Afer all, we apparently run the place, an amusing side project when we need to take a break from the rigours of starting all the wars in the world and making matzoh from the blood of gentile children.

before yoga :: light play
This month, I'm back to feeling inspired and working on taking a photo a day. So far, so good - just need to remember to think about my next shot the day before. And so it went for this shot...
The set up... I've been working on building a morning yoga habit {to complement the hot yoga on the weekends}. After dropping Lukas off at BART I toss open the mat, pull up the Yoga Studio app, breath deeply, and begin. There's something about the first moments and the warm lamp light that sets the mood and is utterly peaceful. That's the feeling I wanted to try to capture, but feelings can be tricky to put to screen with just the click of a shutter.
The first picture above is where I started. Most of the living room lights on - not actually how I practice, but hoping to get enough light to make the picture work. And, mostly, I think that it does but when I looked at the screen I thought I can do better. Let's play with the light.
In the next shot I shut of all the lights except for the one coming from behind and to my left. This yielded a much more dramatic shot. It gave the sense that I was up before the sun. The tones in the light felt more like it does when I'm actually bending through the different positions. But the focus of the image was me and that wasn't quite what I was going for... even though it is a self-portrait. And so...
I changed the light source. Now, from the camera's perspective, I was backlight. The light spilling in from the doorway in front and to the left. As I pulled my hair into the ponytail, my arms caught the highlights. The shadows played differently across each of my legs and there is just a hint of light outlining the side of my face. In this image, my eyes are drawn to both the prints - grey whale cove on the wall and bryce canyon resting on the floor. This shot? This was the one I was picturing in my head. To me, it tells the story of doing yoga. The wave sounds in the background on the yoga app fit perfectly with the water flowing out in the image on the wall. That is my place of calm; where I go to in my mind.
Each of the above shots tells the same story or actually, tell a different story of the same morning activity. They are similar, just slightly different, but different enough that I didn't just settle for that first image. And, looking back at each of them, it was challenging to pick which one was "the one". The thing about photography is, your reaction to a image is so highly personal. The story it tells you and the feelings it can evoke are intertwined with your own experiences and ideas. The best a photographer can do is try to tell their story with light and dark, composition and exposure.
I'm working on it.

It's interesting how each photo displays its own unique sense of serenity. Like, I feel yoga from each one of these scenes, yet I feel it in different ways. I think I like the warmth of the middle one best. Though I can best relate to the third photo, as I'm most often practicing yoga in the dark while my family sleeps. I enjoyed the concept of this post.ReplyDelete

The second powerful factor that is essential in polar bear adaptation to cold is their fur.
I am going to suggest a different twist on your typical cardio routine that will burn more calories and fat while stimulating your thighs to add some lean, sexy muscle tone. Actually, you want to increase your LDL particle size which is more important than increasing your HDL levels, although both goals are fine.

Scholarship in tribute to Buffalo's first African-American nurse awarded; several recognized for disparities outreach
Lindsay Frazier, a telephone interviewer in the department of health behavior at Roswell Park Cancer Institute, earned the $2,000 Eva M. Noles Scholarship Friday, Dec. 2, at the fourth annual Eva M. Noles Recognition Program at RPCI. The annual program honors the legacy of Noles, Buffalo's first African-American registered nurse and a longtime RPCI employee, who served in many leadership roles at the institute, including as director of nursing.
Frazier joined RPCI's staff in 2007 and has been a volunteer for the Buffalo/Niagara Witness Project, an outreach program operated through the office of cancer health disparities research. She is pursuing a degree in medical technology at the University at Buffalo and plans to continue her work in health care, helping to fight health disparities in the Buffalo area.
"From her first days with us, Lindsay has committed herself wholeheartedly to the Roswell Park mission," said Reggie Clark, RPCI's vice president of diversity and inclusion. "She has contributed as both an employee and a volunteer, and now we have a great opportunity to reward that commitment — which embodies the work, spirit and legacy of Ms. Noles — and help her achieve her career goals by providing a scholarship toward her studies in medical technology."
Dr. LaVonne E. Ansari, CEO and executive director of the Community Health Center of Buffalo Inc., gave the keynote address at the program, during which several RPCI staff members and volunteers were recognized for their role in providing cancer education and preventive outreach to underserved communities throughout Western New York. Among those recognized were Charley Ferguson of the Buffalo Bills Alumni, and MAN UP, or Minorities Allied for the Need to Understand Prostate Cancer; Kenneth Turner of Roswell Park's community advisory steering committee; Maria Torres, a volunteer with the Esperanza y Vida program; and Nancy Spencer, a volunteer with the Buffalo/Niagara Witness Project.
Staff and volunteers were also recognized for their contributions to "Cruisin' for a Cure," a prostate cancer education and screening event held at RPCI in September. That list included several community partners: James Anderson, Roland Bittles, Charles Chandler Jr., Charles Chandler III, James Dorsey, Sandi Dorsey, Deborah Gabriel, Karen Hall, Ramon Heron, Angela Leavy, Michael Sweeney and David Von Derau Jr.
For more information, visit RPCI's website at http://www.roswellpark.org, call 1-877-ASK-RPCI (1-877-275-7724) or email [email protected].

Congratulations to me for working out religiously the entire month of March. Whoo hoo. I love the YMCA. It's waaaay better than 24Hour Fitness or Bally's. For one, they have free day care, up to two hours, per child. And your baby can be as young as 3 months old. Also, they have baby friendly classes, so I can work out with Mylo until he's 3 months old (or I feel comfortable leaving him there without me!) Secondly, the people are SO friendly. Not just the instructors (who are AWESOME) but the other members. They totally go above and beyond — which is just so amazing. It really makes you want to come back without feeling like a putz for getting there late with a GIANT double stroller. Three, they have like a TON of classes at 4 different locations, so I can always find something. I still haven't been to the Yoga Annex or the pools. Once Mylo is 3 months I'll have MUCH more variety. Unlike at Bally's where they're all… "Just take him home." And leave him with WHO??? I was in tears, pushing my giant stroller. It was horrible.
BONUS! There are no nasty fat-ass gym guys who try to make you feel stupid and upsell you personal training. Why are those guys always fat??? No, hunny, it's not buff pecs… it's man square man boobies. There may be some muscle there… but it's hidden deep beneath the fat!
Anyhow… Jaxon has finally acclimated himself to the Y's daycare center (where the girls are FABULOUS!) The lady in charge told me to keep bringing Jaxon back, despite his SCREAMING every time I left him. Because after the first day, I felt really bad having this horribly crying child that I felt I was "pawning off" onto those girls. Anyhow… she was right. Jax is fabulous. Although I ALWAYS leave my sippy cups there. Grrh.
I'm down 2 pounds, which isn't fabulous, but I have lost 5 inches from my body – including .25″ from my neck! Gross. LOL. Check out my victory dress/gift for working out.
It looks better on me with the fabulous heels that I get to buy if I keep up with the diet (see previous post). I'm super excited about life!!!!
Ciao for now!
PS. Stay away from McDonald's Cappuccinos. Those people are retarded. I asked for a Cappuccino with non-fat milk and 1/2 the normal amount of sweetener and instead they gave me half the amount of milk. Why?? If I wanted less milk, I would have gotten a small!!! So tried to salvage it at home. The sweetness was overpowering. Lost $2. Sticking with homebrew, or my local coffee shops.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth divided the Malibu into zones of interest
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth spent the heaviest day of the week – Monday – on a sunny beach in Malibu. Paparazzi managed to make some photos with celebrities: while Miley was sunbathing on the beach, Liam was catching waves on a surfboard.
Miley, who put on that day a red swimsuit costing $ 64, involuntarily demonstrated to owners of long-focus lenses not only a smart figure, but also her numerous tattoos. Now there are more than 20 drawings on the body of the 24-year-old singer. In April, Miley made a new tattoo in honor of … no, not Liam, but her favorite dog. Next to the tattoo is a picture of a fish, a half moon and the logo of her Happy Hippie charity fund.
