NEO vs. Canvas
NEO is a word-class, award-winning learning management system (LMS) for schools and universities. NEO helps schools manage all classroom activities, such as creating and delivering educational content, assessing students, tracking their results, and promoting communication and collaboration between students and teachers/faculty. NEO is a product of CYPHER LEARNING, a company that specializes in providing learning platforms for organizations around the world.
Canvas is an LMS for K-12 and Higher Ed institutions, owned by Instructure.
NEO School portal
User interface
The NEO interface has a modern, responsive design that looks sharp and automatically adjusts based on the type of device. It provides attractive tile-based dashboards for students, teachers and administrators, a graphical class catalog, as well as simple pop-out navigation.
Many features can be enabled or disabled to suit young children through to college students. NEO provides rich content authoring as well as a visually attractive way to create and organize lesson material. NEO offers native mobile apps for iOS, Android and Windows.
The Canvas interface is not as graphical as NEO's. For example, there is no tile-based dashboard and to gain access to important customization features such as a graphical visitor catalog, users must pay for Canvas Catalog - an extension.
The interface does not support mobile browsing and it is recommended for users to install the Canvas apps to use it on their mobile devices. A big minus is that the applications do not offer the full range of the LMS's features. Canvas provides mobile apps for iOS and Android.
NEO Student dashboard
Ease of use
NEO is very intuitive and easy to use. In addition, it includes an online help center with videos, getting started guides, and searchable help content. NEO also has a rapid response support forum where staff members typically respond to questions within 15-30 minutes during business hours 24/5.
Canvas is easy to understand and use. The company offers a help guide, a community and a support forum, and contact via phone for administrators.
NEO Help center
NEO provides the range of functionality you'd expect in a modern LMS, such as support for classes (instructor led, blended, self-paced, and micro learning), twelve kinds of assignments, full-featured gradebook, content authoring, beautiful lesson layouts, gamification, automation, learning paths, drip content, adaptive learning, mastery and competencies (including US common core standards and Next Generation Science Standards), question banks, class templates, rubrics, collaboration tools, resources catalog, a customizable portal, and more.
NEO supports many important industry standards such as SCORM, Common Cartridge Format, LTI, QTI and LDAP. We also integrate with a wide variety of systems, including Google Drive, G Suite, Office 365, OneDrive, Calendars (iCal), Turnitin, Zapier, GoToMeeting, Zoom, WebEx, SIS, Equella, and more.
Canvas provides a similar feature set, with the main difference being that the features are not as visually attractive, and are a little harder to configure and use. For example, users must install and pay extra for the Canvas Catalog extension to be able to showcase their courses in a graphical catalog, sell them and create visitor portals.
In addition, here is a list of the features included in NEO that are not supported by Canvas:

NEO costs about $6 per student per year for its Small school plan and $7 per student per year for its Enterprise plan. There are no setup fees, cancellation fees, storage fees, bandwidth fees, support fees, or other hidden costs.
We have heard anecdotally that Canvas costs $12 per student per year and requires a significant setup payment.

While sitting at his desk, Fred Jones needs only to take a quick look up and to his right to see the strides made by him and his Southern Heritage Classic. But what does the 70-year-old Jones see when he looks up at the hopeful guy in his early 40s staring back from a newspaper photo accompanying a story prior to the inaugural game in 1990?
The South has its advantages. First-year Mississippi State coach Joe Moorhead, whose previous head coaching job was at Fordham University in the Bronx, knows this to be true. "Everything being wrapped in bacon, that's pretty good," said Moorhead, who had a successful two-year run as Penn State's offensive coordinator before coming to the SEC, where it is not a stretch to say everything is wrapped in the legacy of Nick Saban.
As the tip-off of another Memphis Grizzlies game nears, television play-by-play announcer Pete Pranica will tell viewers on FOX Sports Southeast, "We have three officials, and they have been assigned by the NBA …"
Mercurial Republican Rep. Gerald McCormick went from kicking ass to kicking back. Only three days after saying his now-former Democratic opponent, David Jones, would realize how little he has in common with District 26 in Chattanooga "when he gets his ass beat in November," McCormick abruptly announced he would not seek re-election this year and would be leaving the House effective Oct. 1.
They walked around the mall in a zombie-like trance, still trying to process what they'd just been told.
Nearly 15 years of blood, sweat and tears on the football field was put to end in just five minutes. Jack Jones and his parents had traveled to Dallas last October seeking a solution for Jones' recurring neck and shoulder issues.
University of Memphis coach Penny Hardaway has added two more players to his roster. Shooting guard Antwann Jones signed with the Tigers after being released from his national letter of intent with Texas A&M. Isaiah Maurice signed after playing one season at Kansas State and one season at South Plains junior college.
WASHINGTON (AP) – The Federal Reserve's first meeting under Jerome Powell's leadership will likely end Wednesday with an announcement that the Fed will resume its modest interest rate hikes.
Tennessee football fans are hoping for a better National Signing Day in 2019. This year's was a relative dud.
New coach Jeremy Pruitt, hired on Dec. 7, signed six players on Feb. 7 but whiffed on several high-profile recruits he and his staff were pursuing. He had signed 14 players during the first-ever early signing period Dec. 20-22.
With the Super Bowl in the books and another NFL season come and gone, it will soon be time to prepare for the 2018 season.
For the Tennessee Titans, that means trying to fill in the remaining pieces of the puzzle to take another step toward reaching the big game.
About a month ago, following a Dec. 10 loss at Arizona, Marcus Mariota showed a seldom-seen side of his personality.
Clearly dejected, he seemed flustered and distraught while answering questions in his post-game press conference, even answering that he was "pissed off" about his performance when asked why he seemed more bothered than usual following the Titans' 12-7 loss to the struggling Cardinals.
Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt could have done a lot worse during the Dec. 20-22 early signing period, the first-ever for high school recruits in college football.
It was a recruiting whirlwind for Pruitt, named UT's coach Dec. 7 while still serving as Alabama's defensive coordinator.
As Stax Records and Royal Studios both wrap up a year of celebrating their 60th anniversary, The Memphis News looks back at the creators and purveyors of the Memphis sound and its significance, both in its heyday and today.
Jacob Warren got one of the best phone calls of his life a couple of weeks ago. The senior tight end at Farragut High School was relieved to hear what new Tennessee football coach Jeremy Pruitt told him.
Tennessee football isn't what it used to be. Nor is the attraction of being UT's football coach.
It became more and more apparent this week as first-year UT athletics director John Currie tried to hire his first football coach as an AD.
Tennessee's football team and interim head coach Brady Hoke will try to avoid a historically bad season Saturday.
If the Vols (4-7, 0-7 SEC) lose to Vanderbilt (4-7, 0-7), it would be the first team in program history to lose eight games and go winless in the conference. Kickoff is 3 p.m. CST at Neyland Stadium (TV: SEC Network).
Grizz season opener at the Forum Wednesday is a win over NOLA 103 – 91. And Tony Allen's Grizz jersey is retired. The day before, Allen wrote a piece for The Players' Tribune on the Memphis experience and it is just about the best thing that will happen to you all day. He just walks right off the court and into the soul of this place.
Hey, Memphis! The real NBA and college basketball seasons creep closer with teasing events this week and the schedule of fun things to do is highlighted by the second annual Memphis Food & Wine Festival Saturday evening. Here's toasting to a great week.
This conversation? No, they didn't imagine it. Grizzlies coach David Fizdale and point guard Mike Conley did not enter the NBA thinking they would someday be talking about national protests, a president that shoots from the lip, or Confederate statues in Memphis.
After a disappointing turnout last year, the 2017 Memphis Comic Expo nearly didn't happen. But last year, a little before Christmas, Donald Juengling's father passed away. Richard Juengling had been a big fan of his son's efforts to stage a creator-oriented comic convention in Memphis.
State Sen. Lee Harris is encouraged by the U.S. Supreme Court's request for the state of Mississippi to respond to a lawsuit seeking to remove the Confederate battle flag from its state flag.
Enough of the talk. Enough of the speculation. Let's play some football.
Tennessee starts its fifth season of the Butch Jones coaching era on Monday night against Georgia Tech at the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Kickoff is 8 p.m. (TV: ESPN).
It's championship or bust for Tennessee senior tight end Ethan Wolf.
Bowl victories are nice. So are nine-win seasons. But Wolf wants a lot more in his final season with the Vols.
"Our goal here at Tennessee every single year is to win a championship, and that's going to remain the goal," Wolf says. "Yeah, there may have been a little bit of excitement the first year, maybe the second year winning the bowl game. It's always exciting, but that's the bare minimum right now."
Tennessee coach Butch Jones passed his first test of the 2017 football season Monday. He made it through SEC Media Days.
There were no new catch phrases, although Jones did allude to the team's "D.A.T." (Details, Accountability, Toughness) motto. But nothing close to "champions of life" or "five-star hearts."
HOOVER, ALA. – Arkansas coach Bret Bielema understands as well as anyone that football and the risk of severe injury can't be separated. Running back Rawleigh Williams gained more than 1,300 yards last year. But he suffered a second neck injury in this year's spring game and decided, after consulting with doctors, to retire from the game.
The Memphis Grizzlies continued changing their roster for the upcoming season by agreeing to a one-year contract with free agent guard Tyreke Evans.
Evans, according to ESPN, will make $3.3 million on the one-year deal. Evans, 27, played one year for the University of Memphis and then was the fourth overall pick in the 2009 draft by the Sacramento Kings.
The 60th FedEx St. Jude Classic teed off on Monday, June 5, with the Danny Thomas Pro-Am at TPC Southwind.
It is the continuation of a tradition. Back in 1960, the Memphis Open Golf Tournament presented Thomas with a check for $600. It was seed money that went toward the opening of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
One check of the 2017 NFL Draft shows why Tennessee was the favorite to win the SEC East Division last fall.
UT had six players drafted in the first four rounds, the most for the program since 2002, breaking a two-year drought with no players. The six Vols drafted tied for the most since 2010 and 2007. Eight Vols were drafted in 2003 and 10 drafted in 2002.
The first time I heard the term "good locker room" in relation to an NFL team, I figured it had something to do with TVs, air conditioning and nearby shower accommodations.
As usual, I was wrong.
Recruiting is the lifeblood of a college football program, and the cycle never ends.
As UT's recruiting grind continues and spring practices opened this week, I caught up with Ryan Callahan of 247Sports to talk about the 2017 class. Callahan covers UT recruiting, and here's what he has to say about the 2017 class, which consists of 22 three-star recruits, four four-stars and one five-star (offensive lineman Trey Smith of University School of Jackson), according to 247Sports' composite rankings.
Phillip Fulmer was notorious during his glory years as Tennessee's football coach for maintaining staff stability.
Some of his assistant coaches were mediocre recruiters. So, what? Fulmer figured he could take up the slack. It was more important to him that the staff have year-to-year continuity.
John Currie is the new athletics director at the University of Tennessee. Has it sunk in yet? Currie, previously the athletic director at Kansas State, was introduced last week by new UT chancellor Beverly Davenport during a ceremony featuring fans, boosters, coaches and, of course, former Tennessee and NFL quarterback Peyton Manning.
The hiring of John Currie as the University of Tennessee's athletics director conveys a number of messages. One of them: Butch Jones is officially on the clock.
Based on Currie's history at UT, as well as his eight-year track record as Kansas State's athletics director, it's safe to say he isn't afraid to pull the trigger when it comes to coaches – for better or worse.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – New Tennessee athletic director John Currie has some shopping to do.
It's almost time to kick off the 2017 college football season. And by that we mean that SEC Media Days should again be flagged for encroachment on summer.
The conference has not yet jumped in front of the Fourth of July, but SEC Media Days in Hoover, Alabama, continues to move ever closer to summer's signature date.
When wide receiver Kendall Wright was a healthy scratch for the Titans' final game of the season, it further underscored why this franchise is still struggling to gain altitude in the NFL.
In hindsight, it's no surprise Florence Jones decided to pursue a career in health care more than four decades ago. A lot about the profession, of course, was different back then. But Jones – tapped in recent days as the new CEO at Methodist North Hospital after serving as chief nursing officer and interim CEO there – had the same motivation then as she does today.
In the immediate aftermath of the Tennessee Titans' turnaround season, Jon Robinson's title was expanded to executive vice president and general manager.
Death claimed transcendent political figures in 2016, including Cuba's revolutionary leader and Thailand's longtime king, but also took away royals of a different sort: kings of pop music, from Prince and David Bowie to George Michael.
Tennessee's football team can't afford to get too merry when it goes into Christmas break this weekend. Not with the way it finished the 2016 regular season, and not with a chance for some redemption.
In the spirit of the holiday season, Joshua Dobbs is the gift that keeps on giving. Despite all the disappointments of 2016 for Tennessee football, it would be a mistake not to appreciate Dobbs for what he is: a scholar, an athlete, a leader, a role model and a winner.
As we count down to the University of Memphis playing in the Tuesday, Dec. 20, Boca Raton Bowl, I find myself recalling what athletics director Tom Bowen said when pressed about why Arizona State offensive coordinator Mike Norvell was the Tigers' choice for head coach.
Tennessee football coach Butch Jones has plenty of winning to do next year. For starters, UT (8-4, 4-4 SEC) needs to win the Dec. 30 Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl in Nashville against Nebraska (9-3, 6-3 Big Ten).
As our week here began very windy and very rainy with clouds all day Monday, there was a different kind of overcast day unfolding in East Tennessee. And by the time of this post the National Guard was patrolling parts of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge where wildfires had forced evacuations of both towns – all of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, according to the city manager of Pigeon Forge.
Outside of his game-winning touchdown catch that capped a comeback in Detroit, Andre Johnson didn't do much on the stat sheet for the Tennessee Titans.
Tennessee defensive end LaTroy Lewis was raised in Akron, Ohio, and recalls a special Saturday of football each fall when he was a youth: Ohio State vs. Michigan.
"That's what I was taught my whole life," Lewis says, "and then I got down here in the South, and it was kind of like: 'Is there any other game beside Tennessee and Alabama?'"
Suppose Tennessee's 5-0 start to the college football season (2-0 in SEC play) included only last Saturday's impossible comeback victory over Georgia on the Joshua Dobbs Hail Mary pass on the game's last play? That would be incredible enough, wouldn't it?
Bill Steber stood at the crossroads in the Mississippi Delta and made a deal with the devil that would allow him to not only master his photographic skills but become one of the most respected documentarians of Mississippi Delta blues. And kind of make a living (or at least fashion his life) while he's at it.
At SEC Media Days this summer in Hoover, Ala., the 14 head coaches brought along more starting offensive linemen (5) than starting quarterbacks (3). Such is the state of the most high profile position in the Southeastern Conference at the beginning of the 2016 college football season.
Jalen Hurd knows right where he stands among Tennessee's running backs of the past and wants to be No. 1 in career rushing yards at the end of the 2016 season.
The junior from Hendersonville Beech High School needs 892 yards to surpass Travis Henry as UT's career rushing leader.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – A new NCAA rule change is catching some recruits by surprise while causing coaches to debate how much time they should spend on social media.
Under the change that took effect last week, athletic department staff members are allowed to retweet or show their approval of social media posts made by recruits. The policy change has been nicknamed "Click, Don't Type" because coaches still aren't allowed to add any sort of comment to a recruit's post.
Tennessee's football team had nine players earn All-SEC preseason honors and got the nod as favorite to win the East Division as SEC Media Days concluded last week in Hoover, Alabama.
All signs point to the Vols making a return to the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta for the first time since 2007, with their two biggest games are at Neyland Stadium this year against Florida on Sept. 24 and Alabama on Oct. 15.
The Tennessee attorney general's sexual harassment investigation of Republican Rep. Jeremy Durham dragged halfway through the summer. Now we know why.
Business was good and getting better. This was 2010 and Huston Akins steadily had grown his private investigative and security operation. But his contract with Kroger was the cornerstone.
The account with Kroger covered 19 stores. His plain clothes officers, dispatched at various intervals, would troll for shoplifters. But in February of 2010, Akins found his business at risk.
In the immediate aftermath of Paxton Lynch's pro day at the University of Memphis, it sort of felt like the postgame following a season-opening victory over a lesser non-conference opponent.
Good, satisfying in the moment, and hopeful for the future. But not necessarily an accurate predictor of what is to come.
If all goes well, the attention probably will be on the quarterback – an open competition at the moment – and the receivers and the running backs. That's just how football works.
But ultimately the success of the University of Memphis offense next season will be about much more than the fast guys and the guy who gets the ball to them. First-year head coach Mike Norvell was offensive coordinator at Arizona State and he has brought with him Chip Long, who will serve as Norvell's offensive coordinator, and who worked with Norvell from 2012 through 2015.
Tennessee football coach Butch Jones keeps his pulse on recruiting year-around, along with his SEC counterparts and other FBS coaches.
Chasing recruits is an endless cycle, the lifeblood of championship football teams.
Tennessee baseball coach Dave Serrano wasn't setting the bar too high when he met with the media for his 2016 preseason press conference.
Serrano made that mistake before the 2015 season with talk of reaching an NCAA regional and perhaps Omaha, Nebraska, site of the College World Series.
They ran in the considerable shadow of the most competitive Memphis mayoral race in a generation. The new Memphis City Council that takes office with Mayor-elect Jim Strickland in January isn't necessarily a generational shift. It doesn't signify a wholesale ousting by the electorate, either.
Credit Mike Mularkey with one thing, if nothing else.He has approached his interim stint as the Tennessee Titans head coach with a high degree of honesty and a bit of a straightforward approach to the job.
I'm blaming Rudy Kalis. As the years passed in a long career as a sports writer, I always swore I'd never be the oldest guy at the press conference. As long as Rudy was in the house as sports anchor for WSMV-TV, I was safe. Then he got a morning gig at Channel 4.
I miss Steve Spurrier.
It won't be the same without Spurrier coaching South Carolina when Tennessee (4-4, 2-3 SEC) plays host to the Gamecocks (3-5, 1-5) on Saturday.
It wasn't the same this week without Spurrier throwing a jab or two at UT leading up to the game.
Leaves are changing colors, a chill is in the fall air and Tennessee's football schedule is getting softer.
Happens every year.
We've all heard by now how Tennessee is the best 3-4 team in college football. Now is the time to prove it.
The 2015 Memphis elections are in the books as the Shelby County Election Commission certified the results Friday, Oct. 28.
But the commission has resolved to test tabulation computer programming earlier, starting with the Nov. 19 city council runoff elections.
At some point, the Tennessee Titans have to grow up.
After blowing an opportunity to take the early lead in the AFC South by letting it slip away against the Indianapolis Colts last Sunday, the Titans now head into their bye week on a downturn with two consecutive losses.
A year ago, Ole Miss put up 13 fourth-quarter points to rally and defeat Alabama 23-17 at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford. The victory wasn't secure until 37 seconds were left in the game and Senquez Golson intercepted a Blake Sims pass in the end zone with an acrobatic catch that required an official's review to be ruled valid.
When the University of Memphis plays at Bowling Green Saturday, Sept. 18, the game will feature something that any number of SEC games could not: two well-established quarterbacks.
Not since the Tigers had running back DeAngelo Williams lining up in their backfield have they had an offensive player that demands as much as attention as redshirt junior quarterback Paxton Lynch.
Last week, the University of Memphis football team finished training camp with simulated end-of-week preparation, culminating with a video test Friday night and a mock game Saturday, Aug. 29, at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium.
John Jancek begins his third season as Tennessee's defensive coordinator under head coach Butch Jones, and thanks to two solid recruiting classes should have his best defense with the Vols.
UT is bigger and faster on the defensive side than the previous two seasons, when the Vols showed improvement from the 2012 season by shaving more than 100 yards and 11 points per game allowed.
The bottom-line question about Memphis Grizzlies rookies Jarell Martin and Andrew Harrison is the same as after every other NBA Draft: What does the team really have in these guys?
The Memphis Grizzlies needed more shooting and may have found at least some of it in two off-Broadway draft day trades. But with the 25th overall pick in the first round Thursday night, June 25, the Grizzlies went a different direction and chose 6-foot-9, 235-pound forward Jarell Martin from LSU.
Tennessee football fans might want to look past the defensive lineup for the Orange & White Spring Game. It will bear little resemblance to the unit that will start the 2015 season opener against Bowling Green on Sept. 5 at Nashville's LP Field.
Joshua Dobbs enters his junior season as Tennessee's undisputed No. 1 quarterback and team leader, the player most responsible for the Vols' relevance again in SEC football.
Tennessee senior Mikelis Libietis sits on the bench before a match on Court 1 at Goodfriend Indoor Tennis Center and is reminded of one of his greatest losses.
Not a tennis match.
Court 1 is named "Sean Karl Court" in memory of Brentwood's Sean Karl, former University of Tennessee tennis player who died Nov. 16, 2014 of cancer. He was 20.
Every day, Tunica, Miss., was missing an opportunity. Worst of all, that opportunity was passing by on the Blues Highway, also known as U.S. 61.
"You come out of Memphis and Beale and Graceland, and those interested in the genre of the blues were coming south and going to Clarksdale," said Webster Franklin, president and CEO of the Tunica Convention and Visitors Bureau. "Before the museum, people would just drive right by. Now, those folks will make the museum their first stop in Mississippi."
KNOXVILLE – National signing day is in the books, and Tennessee football coach Butch Jones and his staff can relax and savor another top-tier recruiting class.
Oops. Wait a minute. No time off for Jones and his assistants when it comes to recruiting. They're already busy putting together the 2016 class, and looking at recruits for future classes.
NEW YORK (AP) – A barometer of Wall Street's anxiety flashed red on Wednesday, when traders rushed to the safety of U.S. government bonds.
The surge in demand for Treasurys knocked a key interest rate to its lowest level since May 2013.
In Nashville real estate circles, it is difficult to say goodbye to 2014. We loved that 2014 and she was wonderful.
Missing her already, we hope she returns in 2015. But for the current trend to continue, Nashville is going to need some inventory.
KNOXVILLE – There's nothing like going into the offseason on a high note. The Vols will be riding the momentum from the resounding 45-28 victory against Iowa in the Jan. 2 TaxSlayer Bowl through the end of recruiting season, winter workouts, spring practices and into the summer months.
KNOXVILLE – Christmas break has come and gone for the University of Tennessee's football team. Now it's back to business.
The Vols return to campus for practice Saturday and, after a Sunday practice, fly to Jacksonville for the Jan. 2 game against Iowa in the TaxSlayer Bowl, formerly the Gator Bowl.
KNOXVILLE – Derek Barnett is spending most of the Christmas holidays away from his Nashville home, and he wouldn't have it any other way.
If the University of Tennessee's football team gains bowl eligibility with a victory Saturday at Vanderbilt, it can look back to a quarterback change Oct. 25 against Alabama as a pivotal point in the season.
"Everybody has to meet his Waterloo," sings honky-tonk hero Stonewall Jackson in his breakthrough No. 1 hit back in 1959.
Of course, that line, the entire song really, means everybody must meet his or her fate someday.
The odds of an income tax becoming a reality in Tennessee – one of the nation's lowest-taxed states – are slim to none.
And, yet there is an amendment on the Nov. 4 ballot that would change Tennessee's constitution by giving the Legislature authority to prohibit passage of an income tax or payroll tax in the state.
I REMEMBER THIS SONG. Last week, I wrote about passing institutions – a couple of examples of places and people that won't come our way again. I said the past can inform the future, but we can't go back to some other time.
Nothing surprises Murfreesboro Blackman High School football coach Philip Shadowens when it comes to college recruiting.
Shadowens has seen it all – including the flurry of activity created by Blackman senior quarterback and safety Jauan Jennings, rated the No. 18 athlete in the nation by Rivals.com.
Butch Jones was sitting in the office of Knoxville's South-Doyle High School athletic director and football coach Clark Duncan during a visit to see recruit Jocquez Bruce last winter.
You only get one chance to make a first impression, as the old saying goes.
Such was the case Sunday at LP Field when the home fans got their first real look at Ken Whisenhunt's first edition of the Tennessee Titans.
KNOXVILLE – You had to be hiding under a rock not to hear the buzz this week about the University of Tennessee's football team.
One person not reveling in the Vols' 38-7 season opening victory over Utah State on Sunday night was UT coach Butch Jones.
First off, I don't believe everything that Alabama wide receiver Amari Cooper says.
"Coach Lane Kiffin is a great coach and a great person to be around," Cooper said of the Crimson Tide's new offensive coordinator. "Coach is a likable guy."
Coaches such as Alabama's Nick Saban get paid millions to lead and win championships, so it's only natural that Saban would say something like this:
"We are not interested in the possibilities of defeat; they do not exist."
They are the SEC quarterbacks left behind. The quarterbacking gods, with names like Manziel, McCarron, Mettenberger and Murray – what is it about M's? – have ascended to a higher place: playing on Sundays in the NFL.
KNOXVILLE — Don't look for University of Tennessee football coach Butch Jones to play favorites when fall training camp begins Friday, Aug. 1.
Jones is all about open competition. Every practice. Every session. Every minute.
HOOVER, Ala. – It's Tennessee against the world. Don't believe that? Just ask second-year coach Butch Jones.
Last season's "brick-by-brick" theme has been replaced by the "power of one," as in one team against all odds. Given the power/opportunity of the microphone and a large contingent of reporters at SEC Media Days, Jones used his pulpit to say, without exactly saying it, please don't expect too much too soon.
It is said that the famous have their lives summed up in the first paragraph of their public obituary.
The first sentence from a recent obit in The New York Times read: "Michael Heisley, the billionaire financier, who bought the N.B.A.'s floundering Vancouver Grizzlies in April 2000 and soon moved them to Memphis, where he revitalized the franchise, died on Saturday in Illinois. He was 77."
Some people are born into politics; others grow into a political career. For Tennessee Rep. Sherry Jones, it was a little bit of both.
State Rep. and Nashville Democrat Mike Turner is retiring from the General Assembly and considering a run for mayor.
First, there was the debate. Would Briarcrest star Austin Nichols really stay home and play for the Memphis Tigers? Or would outside offers, including ones from Duke, Kansas and North Carolina, be too good to pass up?
2010: In The Memphis News cover story on new leadership at The Regional Medical Center at Memphis, MED president and CEO Reginald Coopwood said, "It was somewhat daunting in that, 'Am I the closer, the guy who's coming in to close the organization down, or is there an opportunity?'"
To understand the potential impact of redshirt freshman quarterback Paxton Lynch, you have to do two things up front: forget his numbers (for a while) and look at the numbers produced by other Tiger quarterbacks.
Alabama's Nick Saban can walk anywhere he wants in the Southeastern Conference – college football's roughest neighborhood – and no one can lay a finger on him.
His teams have won the national championship in three of the last four years. Overall, SEC teams have won the title seven consecutive years and the league is a dream destination for head coaches – until it turns into a grinding, weekly nightmare.

14th October, 2017
Congratulations on your bold conciliatory move to Canada's First Nations, by ridding the School Board of any trace of the appellation of 'Chief'. I, for one, would not go to say George Orwell would be proud of you – appalled would be more likely – but perhaps the themes of his dystopian novel '1984' have escaped you. Or perhaps they have not.
Of course, 'Etymology' may also be a word you have difficulty understanding. As you might not believe in having reference books at hand, perhaps you might resort to the Internet instead. I refer you to Wikipedia or the Online Etymology Dictionary (which may be found at http://www.etymonline.com) instead.
Alas, the word 'Chief' – which you have now banned – when used as a noun has the following entry:
"chief (n.) c. 1300, "head, leader, captain, the principal or most important part of anything; from Old French chief "leader, ruer, head" of something, "capital city" (10c., Modern French chef), from Vulgar Latin "capum; from Latin caput "head", also "leader, chief person, summit, capital city" (from PIE root "kaput- "head"). Meaning "head of a clan" is from 1570s, later extended to Amrican Indian tribes. Commander-in-Chief attested from 1660s."
Ooops; bit of a problem there, eh? The word 'chief' seems to have emerged around 200 years before Colombus turned up in the New World… good thing the teaching of history is now a lesser priority.
Not to worry, the English language is an exceptionally versatile and adaptive tongue. We have loads of substitute words from the First Nations of the Americas that the Toronto District School Board might care to adopt in lieu of the word 'Chief'.
For example, your chief executive officer could now be referred to as the 'Sachem'.
A chief superintendent might rejoice in the title of 'Cacique'.
No doubt your leadership will see this initiative emulated in other areas. I look forward to the RCN's chief petty officers receiving the new appellation of 'Kikmongwi', Toronto's Chief of Police may be called the 'Toqui' of Police, and perhaps the head of the city's fire department may be referred to as the 'Weroance'.
The business community can resort to such titles as 'Shakes' and 'Tadodaho', although 'Teuctocaitl' does have such a nice ring to it…
Or we could resort to the title of 'Ravens' for military colonels in chief. 'Onontio' does have a lovely resonance, however, and who would not want to have 'Lonko' on their business card? Although one fears that unkind souls might substitute the letter 'u' for the first vowel.
Alas, as an unredacted old White European-descended Patriarchal Heterosexual (and enduring the terrible shame of being such in this enlightened age), I will claim the privilege of crustiness and will insist on using the word 'Chief' with malice aforethought, particularly when it comes to dealing with the Toronto District School Board.
Get stuffed.
Unalterably yours,
John C. Thompson

Happy 4th of July from our family to yours.
Wishing all of you a peaceful Fathers Day.
Twelve months have gone by and still I hurt at losing Suzanne. I see pictures of her and remember how "alive" she was, how truly sparkling her personality was and her smile so bright.
Of course, I remember her tears, as a child and adult. I consider the things that hurt her or upset her. Suz was angered over injustice, whether it was unfairness directed at her or someone she loved. She supported those she loved with an intensity that was born in her heart.
She cried over losing people she loved, whether it was to death or a bad relationship. Suzanne grieved for Steven, her cousin, who was shot and killed on December 16, 2000. She never drove through Ventura without stopping at Steven's place in the cemetery.
My daughter had her faults, as we all do, but she was the most loving person I've known. She accepted people, no matter how they dressed, looked, or believed. God gave Suzanne the gift of love…an unconditional love. That love is still alive. She may be gone from this earth, but not from the presence of God. She's alive with Him and loving like she never loved before.
I feel that love in my heart and spirit. It's God's love perfected in her and sent to ease my pain and sorrow. "There are three things that will endure---faith, hope, and love---and the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:13
Thinking of your angel and your family this Memorial Weekend.
To Suzanne's Siblings
From Dannys Sister Cassandra ^i^
Wishing you a happy Mothers Day,
May the love you have in your heart for
Remind you why you are so special.
Job is Never Done.
Daniel Lee Groves Sister.
^i^ Happy Mother's Day ^i^

Brown Rice
Brown rice is a nutrition packed whole grain loaded with lots of healthy components. It is good for the heart, brain, muscles and bones and offers multiple health benefits. In comparison to its white counterpart, brown rice is nutritionally much superior.
Earn brown-ie points for your health with brown rice!
Read on to know more!
Product Description
Rice is a staple food item especially in Asia and is a primary crop grown all over the world. There are different types of rice including black, red, brown and white but when it comes to health benefits, not all are at par. Brown rice is one of the healthiest varieties of rice
Brown rice is the pre-processed stage of its white counterpart. When after harvesting of rice, the outer layer called the husk is removed, brown rice is obtained. Further, if the bran, as well as the seed germ, are removed, white rice is obtained.
The bran and the germ provide natural wholeness to the grain and contain good amounts of proteins, calcium, thiamine, magnesium, potassium and fibre.
Other varieties of rice such as black and red rice are full of potent natural antioxidants called anthocyanins that lend the seeds their respective colours. Red and black rice are considered even healthier than brown and white rice because they reduce oxidation at artery level, protect cells against free radical damage and help in the prevention of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. (Source: https://www.natureword.com/tag/brown-rice-side-effects/)
Nevertheless, brown rice boasts of multiple health benefits such as reduction of obesity, constipation prevention, diabetes regulation, reduction of stress in lactating women, cancer prevention, immunity and nervous system boost, insomnia relief, cholesterol reduction, prevention of gallstones, etc.
Unless it is broken, brown rice generally takes a longer duration to get cooked as compared to white rice.
Germinated brown rice:
Germinated brown rice or sprouted brown rice is a popular form of brown rice because of the high nutritional value that it offers. This is due to the presence of gama-aminobutyric acid (GABA). By soaking and sprouting brown rice in water for a specified number of hours, GABA is obtained and it also leads to significant increase in essential components such as vitamin E, vitamin B6, ferulic acid, magnesium, potassium, lysine, thiamine, niacin, and dietary fibre. It can be preserved in its dried form to increase its shelf life without affecting its augmented nutritional value.
Selection- Brown rice comprises essential natural oils which that can go stale when stored for too long. Therefore, in order to ensure freshness, it is advisable to check its expiry date before purchasing.
Storage- You can store raw brown rice for up to six months in an airtight container at room temperature to keep it fresh. It can also be refrigerated to preserve it for longer.
Cooked brown rice should not be reheated more than once and not stored at the normal room temperature. Incorrect storage of cooked rice can cause food poisoning because it triggers the growth of a kind of bacteria called Bacillus cereus.
Brown rice is a natural wholesome food rich in essential minerals such as manganese, iron, zinc, phosphorous, calcium, selenium, magnesium, and potassium. Its vitamin wealth includes vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B2(riboflavin), vitamin B3 (niacin), vitamin B6, folate, vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) and vitamin K. It is a source of protein and adds a good amount of fibre to our diet. Along with this, it is also a provider of health-supportive vital fatty acids.

Weight management- Consumption of brown rice gives a feeling of fullness of stomach, thus, preventing unnecessary cravings and overeating.
Prevents constipation- The fibre content of brown rice improves digestion and keeps the bowel function at its peak and well regulated.
Controls Diabetes- Brown rice is useful for people suffering from diabetes and hyperglycemia as it has a low glycemic content that aids in the stabilization of blood sugar levels in the body by preventing insulin surges. Studies have shown that it is a complex carbohydrate which helps in the slower release of sugar as compared to white rice.
Reduces Stress in Lactating Women- Studies suggest that intake of sprouted brown rice during lactation enhances body's ability to resist stress by improving mental health and immunity.
Prevents Cancer- Due to the presence of potent antioxidants and high fibre content, brown rice is useful in the avoidance of breast cancer, colon cancer and leukaemia. Its fibre content binds itself to the harmful cancer-causing toxins in the body and prevents the toxins from getting attached to the colon walls.
Boosts Immunity- Brown rice comprises significant quantities of vitamins, minerals, and essential phenolic components and all of these help in boosting the body's immune system.
Boosts Nervous System Functioning- Due to the presence of essential minerals such as magnesium and manganese and vitamin B, brown rice accelerates the brain metabolism. These nutrients balance the activity of calcium in the body and help in regulating nerves and muscle tone.
Relieves Insomnia- Because of being a natural source of the sleep hormone melatonin, brown rice helps in curing insomnia by improving the quality of sleep.
Bone Health- Brown rice's magnesium and calcium content help in keeping the bones healthy and strong.
Reduces Cholesterol- The oil that is present in brown rice helps in reducing the levels of LDL cholesterol to a great extent. This makes brown rice one of the healthiest grains in our diet. The fibre in it binds itself to the cholesterol in the digestive system and excretes it out of the body.
Rice has a tendency to absorb arsenic from the soil which is harmful for the health. Thus, organically grown rice is recommended for consumption purposes.

There are some chores that I really dislike and some that I tolerate just fine. Ironing my husband's work clothes is one of those. We save a lot of money by not packing them off to the dry cleaner's, and from what I understand dry cleaning is terrible for the environment anyways. My husband likes his shirts really crisply ironed, so I go through a lot of starch. It comes in those terrible aerosol canisters, and I have never seen any sort of alternative to buying those aside from the great big jugs that you have to mix with water yourself…that task has always been a bit intimidating to me. The other day though, I noticed that they were finally selling individual pump-spray starches. They held the same amount of starch as the aerosol ones…but they were priced fifty cents higher per bottle.
Are consumers who are trying to be more ecologically conscious being exploited? Yes, we absolutely are. Does it cost more to make a pump spray starch than it does an aerosol? No way. Are growers who grow organically forced to jump through erroneous and expensive hoops to get their food certified as organic and does that cost get passed on to us? Of course, it does. Are consumers letting this happen over and over right in front of our eyes and doing nothing about it? Unfortunately, we are.
The really sad part of this story is that I walked out of the store that day having purchased two cans of the aerosol starch. In that brief little moment of indecision, I couldn't justify the extra cost. Wow, is the actual cost huge! The reality is that aerosol cans shouldn't even be on the market. The EPA should have banned them twenty or more years ago, along with thousands of other products including Teflon. Then again, what can we expect of one of the most corrupt and useless agencies in our country? The answer to that is a lot. We should be expecting a hell of a lot out of them, but instead of protecting the citizens of our country they are approving new pesticides that kill honeybees…that happened a few days ago, yep.
The simplest thing that we can do is vote with our dollars. Ultimately, the most important thing that we can do is to get personally involved in our local governments and start taking action. I find that everyone is more easily able to empower themselves with baby steps however. So my suggestion is that if you buy starch, spend the extra fifty cents and but the pump bottle. That is what I am going to do the next time that I buy starch. Believe me, I know how incredibly hard it can be. We have been on a tight budget since the day that my kids were born. We make it happen somehow though, and we do it because it is important…with baby steps, every day.

Stephen Harper has made crime a key legislative and political priority.
No need to review that fact that crime rates are dropping and his solutions, which are all variants of "get tough" (with the exception of getting rid of the gun registry) are stupid, irrelevant, and a product of the over-reporting of crime by local TV news causing people to be unduly fearful of becoming victims (see here and here and here).
However, the other day I saw this tweet from blogger Matt Yglesias, which told me to stop what I was doing and read this Mother Jones article by Kevin Drum. Titled "America's Real Criminal Element: Lead" it is about the links between lead in the environment and crime rates over time, but a lot of other bad stuff too. Yglesias was right: read it now.

We started finding more and more water on the trail after Box Canyon. Craig, the why-bother guy, started hitting the deepest part of every mud puddle we came to on purpose. The trouble was that he would splash so much water around that I. behind with the clean new red plastic, could not tell where the deep mud was or wasn't any more. All the bikes were looking dirty when we arrived at this stream.

On Thursday four days from returning from Africa I returned for the first time in nearly eleven years to an old school boxing only gym. Rustic and hard core, a gym for fighters learning and mastering their craft. You wont catch the majority of American fitness fanatics here. No fancy machines and no juice bar.
I was flooded with memories of the years I spent tirelessly training to perfect my passion in gyms like this. Years of gym wars earning respect in inner city gyms as a young fighter. You have to earn your spot you have to gain respect from the other fighters. You do that by stepping in the ring and going to war, usually ending with a hug or tap on the ass showing mutual respect.
Louie Melendez an old friend now operates this gym on Linden st. in Allentown PA. Just like in the past he greeted me with a big smile a hug and told me "this is your house to".......Man do I love this sport!

More Kale? I know, I know, it's been a repetitive theme here, but when you live alone, one packet of kale goes a loooooong way.
So, kale pesto it was. As a huge fan of pesto, and a huge fan of kale, it seemed like the natural next step. But what to make it with? Unfortunately, the un-glamorous reality is that I had sausage and mozzarella that desperately needed to be eaten, so the choice was made for me.
Fresh basil from my sad, sun-starved plant. The poor thing has grown completely into the window in hopes of catching some much needed light. If it had a face, it would be pressed against the window.
Lightly toast the pine nuts.
Browning the sausage.Take the dough out of the fridge to let rest for 2 hours (or 1, for the impatient). Roll it out as thin as possible on parchment dusted with flour and cornmeal. Let rest for another hour before topping.
Preheat the oven with pizza stone in there at 500 degrees. Assemble the pizza. I've found that the thinner the pizza, the less toppings it needs, to prevent sogginess. Place the pizza, parchment paper and all, on the pizza stone. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Tada!
Kale Pesto (makes about 1 cup)
- big bunch of kale, rinsed, ribs removed and torn into large pieces
- 3/4cups olive oil
- 1/2cup Parmigiano, grated finely
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed and rough chopped
- 1/2cup pine nuts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh

This past month my 6th graders have been working on videos in iMovie using photos and video I took of them completing a Science lesson. They handed them in last week after grading themselves using the rubric for the assignment. I then watched each one and graded it, stapling my rubric under theirs.
As I was grading them I realized that there were a lot of places for improvement. Rather than me taking the time to meet with each group individually I set aside a few classes as film reviewer sessions. We watched everyone's movie and gave positive feedback and constructive criticism. I modeled the first few comments and then let them try it.
What ensued was the most effective feedback session I've witnessed in a while, adults included.
They said things like, "I think your music was good, but your text went too fast." They even were able to take the feedback without trying to justify or respond.
The proof of the power of these feedback session was when I let them return to their projects to work on them based on the feedback they'd gotten. I was blown away by how some students completely reorganized their images or deleted all of their text and changed it. Some re-recorded their opening videos or added smoother transitions.
This is a new group of students for me and it is their first attempt at an iMovie project. I was really proud of them.
It took 2 1/2 class periods, but the self-assessment skills they learned were worth the time. I foresee these skills carrying into other projects as they review their final products.
Here is an example of one of the projects:
Many of the students emulated things they liked about each other's videos, which is apparent in the above video, whose last clip had some inspiration from a classmate's improv video clip that was a hit.
Do you have any examples of using effective feedback with your students?
9 Responses to "Effective Feedback"
Awesome video! So cool that the feedback between kids is working so well. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing this! I watched some students presenting PowerPoint projects last week… a lot of reading slides, huge chunks of text, etc. I wasn't convinced the students learned a lot about the content during the process of creating those projects. When I spoke to some students yesterday about them, they mentioned one student whose project was graphically savvy with little text, and he said he received a lower "grade" than his peers, but the students agreed his was the best! How is this possible?!!
There's a bevy of research that suggests that kids respond to feedback only, as opposed to grade (or even grades and feedback). It is so important to remember that the learning process doesn't end when the assignment is turned in, as you and your students so effectively demonstrated with this project. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing! I think the idea of making a video was a great idea. It is always fun for the students to be in front of a camera! I also think that it is very impressive what your students have learned and put together. For one of my education classes, we had to make a "mock webpage," and I included a link to my "teaching philosophy" video, which I made using Windows Movie Maker. A student in one of my education classes told me she was interested in learning how people can put videos together with pictures, texts, and music. I told her it's very easy and fun, but she's worried that she is not "tech savvy" enough. Just wait till I show her what your 6th graders were capable of creating! Awesome job!
Hi Mary Beth,
I think these kind of learning experiences are great for the kids. They often listen to each other comments and take them on board much more than they respond to the teacher's! It's really wonderful how they went back and improved their projects with the feedback in mind. I've seen it so many times when my kids finish writing and then either just tell me they've finished or close their book and start thinking about something else. But, of course they do that – who has ever suggested anything different? As teachers, we need to nudge them in the right direction and get them to review their work, show it to their peers, get feedback and revise it if necessary. As you showed in the post above, teacher modelling is also important before this process begins. That way we can ensure they focus on the positive and frame their criticisms constructively.
Great job!
Mary Beth,
I appreciate your recent posts on assessments. I am struggling with this myself & find your reflections & tips beneficial. I constantly struggle with the rubric phenomena. I know that there is research for the pros & cons of using rubrics. While reading your post, I was wondering what your thoughts were on how effective the rubric was in this particular project. And/or if you found the feedback to be more beneficial.
In my perfect world there would be no grades, only feedback. I find the rubric helps me satisfy the requirements that I grade students. Even rubrics, however, are subject to some gray area of interpretation, and students still are more interested in their grade than the rubric itself.
A friend of mine suggested that I use feedback with my students and use the grades to satisfy the parents. I've already told them that I don't care about grades, I just do them because I have to. I tell them how proud i am of the learning process they've gone through.
This are such neat projects the kids created. I really like the idea of kids giving feedback to their peers, but it is important to show them how to do this properly, just like you did. I think having the rubric to go along with the project also helps with student feedback. Great job on these projects!
Thanks, Bryn.
What's amazing is how much better my teaching and feedback has gotten over the last year! The videos the kids made this year way surpassed the ones from the previous year because of my experimentation with new kinds of feedback and a lengthy planning process tied to a rubric. Every day you learn something new!
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

City 'keeper suffers thigh injuryCITY can confirm that goalkeeper John Ruddy could be missing from match action for approximately three months, after suffering a thigh injury against Everton last Saturday.
The England international hobbled off in the 81st minute at Goodison Park shortly before the Canaries' last minute equaliser secured a 1-1 draw with the Toffees.
Mark Bunn replaced Ruddy in the Norwich goal on Saturday having already featured twice for City this season in their Capital One Cup victories over Doncaster Rovers and Tottenham Hotspur - the latter seeing him make a last gasp penalty save from Clint Dempsey to secure City's passage through to the quarter-finals of the competition and a tie against Aston Villa on December 11.

More Interesting Work Projects
An extremely lightweight and strong carbon fiber B-K socket with a silicone Proflex liner:
A leather brace. The order requested that we add fancy stitching so that the practitioner could have an easier time convincing the patient to wear the brace to church. (Blurry photos… sometimes there is barely a moment to snap one as it goes into the box!)
A white CROW walker with a custom leather binding:
More interesting work
I worked on my first Symes prosthetics this week. It was a bilateral set. Symes amputations involve the removal of the foot while leaving a weight-bearing heel that the patient can walk on. This set is a 10-layer carbon fiber laminate with strapped doors to allow the distal end of the limb to reach the bottom of the socket with increased comfort. Inside are soft foam liners reinforced with leather.
The feet are Flex-Symes feet manufactured by Össur.
Here is a brace I finished recently. It combines aspects of everything we do in the shop… metal work shaped by hand to closely fit the contours of plastic bracing with a heavily stitched leather cuff and dacron strapping.

By the time of my layoff from the cushy graphic design position I occupied at the tanking and corrupt MCI WorldCom in 2004, I had established myself as a dependable co-worker and recognized employee. There was nothing difficult about the rules of the job, expectations were easy to anticipate and exceed. My ability to multitask was top-notch. Indeed, the spike in the amount of awards I received coincided directly with the invention of Napster and the availability of non-stop, music-junkie euphoria that kept me tied to the keyboard all day now and which served as my salve against the monotony of the job.
Afterwards, I was fortunate enough to quickly determine which of my job skills were learned and adopted out of necessity after college (mindless flexibility, the ability to speak and understand doubletalk) and which were natural and enjoyable for me (a willingness to fill a niche by learning new skills.) The more time goes by, the more my memories of that job become like that of a long video game — a bunch of endless pixels on a screen, forever. I was good at it, but who really gives a shit? I was embarrassed to tell people what I did for a living.
Not long after that, I secured an apprenticeship in Edward Wright's frame shop in Hillsborough, North Carolina. After six months of intensive tutelage, I was commissioned with building hand carved and gilded picture frames on my own. For the first time in my career, I was producing a physical object — one that melded beauty and function, and that I was proud to stand behind because I had created it myself from the rawest of materials. The standards of this job were higher, and in many ways more subjective than the last… Were the dimensions of each frame correct? That was easy enough to determine. Did each one capture the spirit of the artwork it surrounded to the satisfaction of the clients and the other artisans? That was up for endless debate around the shop. The careful examination of each gilded surface brought all of us closer to a mastery of our own individual style and forced us towards the kind of technical perfection that you cannot possibly find in a corporate cubicle. There is no way to diffuse the blame to a vague "other" when you are looking at a mislaid leaf of 22k gold.
My sister sent me a copy of Shop Class as Soulcraft by Matthew B. Crawford for my birthday and I am eternally grateful for the gift and the wisdom contained within. I am particularly enthralled with it right now because it is providing me with an articulate framework of concepts that I have struggled to join together since rejecting the cubicle and beginning this latest phase of my career. This book could be a crucial bolus of information for anyone who makes a living using their hands, no matter where they are on the learning curve. Skilled labor is becoming increasingly rare in our culture. It will never become obsolete, however. My new job is in the fabrication of prosthetic limbs and custom orthotics. A job where the tasks are usually 100% clear, and the metrics are solid and understandable: what did you build today? Was it done correctly? Taking on a task that requires skilled labor involves patience, dedication, planning, and steadfastness. It simultaneously requires improvisation, flexibility, problem solving and a good deal of risk-taking. It exposes one to the vagaries of the market and the occasional dangers of the feast-or-famine cycle, but it keeps you active and on your toes. This book has been instrumental in helping me to understand the many ways in which I am proud to talk about my work nowadays.

This recipe creates the most delicious Carbonara that I've ever tasted. It's very filling, and not the healthiest version, but I'll add a few notes on how to try and make it slightly less fatty.
For two people
- Three eggs (I always go for free-range)
- Whipping cream (if you're looking for a healthier option, instead of using as much cream, top up with milk and flour mixed together)
- Goats cheese
- Wine (just a splash, rose is lovely)
- 2 large flat mushrooms
- Pancetta (or if yo're looking for a healthier option, bacon medallions are a winner)
- Wholemeal tagliatelle (around half a bag)
- Black pepper
- First of all, crack only the yolk of the three eggs into a bowl. I always have difficulty doing this as the yolk always seems to slide off down the drain when I do it.
- Pour half of the cream into the bowl and then stir. Add a sprinkling of black pepper.
- Now grate the goats cheese into the bowl- grate enough so that it covers the top of the mixture of the bowl, but use your own judgement of how much you'd prefer.
- Now start to cook the pancetta in a frying pan; it's best to use a medium setting so that it doesn't cook too quickly, or too slowly.
- After the pancetta starts to brown, slice the mushrooms and add them to the pan. Add a splash of wine.
- Boil your kettle to the brim and pour into a saucepan; pop the tagliatelle in and put it on a medium setting on your hob.
- Once the tagliatelle starts to bubble, drain it and leave for two minutes.
- Add your sauce to the frying pan. Stir for a few minutes and then add the drained pasta.
- Cook the mixture for around five minutes.
- Dish up, and enjoy!

There is no better way to make your Montana vacation complete than by lodging in and enjoying a secluded, authentic hand made log cabin.
This cabin has been a 38 year labor of love by a carpenter who designed it, cut and stripped over 180 lodgepole pine trees, and set in excess of 390 separate logs to create this beautiful log structure, unlike any you may have seen. From the hand built cabinetry, the masonry work, the hardwood and quarry tile floors, the handrailings, to the one-of-a-kind log spiral staircase, the craftsmanship is apparent and admirable.
The cabin has been decorated and tastefully outfitted with authentic antique furniture and Persian rugs to create a truly "turn of the century" ambiance, but still has a modern kitchen and bath for your comfort. It is situated on the edge a Ponderosa pine forest, full of deer and wild turkeys; it is honestly a joy to hike through the forest and explore.
The Hermitage is licensed and inspected by the state to insure your safety and comfort
Privacy and seclusion is assured, as no other structure can be seen from The Hermitage and it is at the end of a 300 yard private driveway.
Picture yourself sitting on the back balcony with a drink in hand, reflecting on your long day of either fishing or floating, grilling steaks (or your fresh catch) as the sun goes down and observe the deer head back into the woods and the wild turkeys roost in nearby trees. Just before dusk the nighthawks swoop down for your amusement. After dinner on the back deck the stars glow brightly in the crystal clear air and the constellations dance across the sky.
This is the way to really relax and experience a memorable evening, Montana Style.

text: CAMO & KROOKED (RAM / BMG / Mosaik Musik / AT) 9.03.2018 The Circus Helsinki WHAT IS IT about your favourite records that makes you love them? WHY DO certain combinations of sounds surcharge your soul with emotion? HOW CAN a chord progression invoke an elevation to an untouchable location? The answers to these questions are the Holy Grail for all musicians. Understanding and unravelling the complex and subjective human relationship with tones, textures and triads is a constant quest for musical clarity. For the most passionate artists, this quest will take a lifetime… Passionate artists like Camo (Reini) and Krooked (Markus): Two young Austrians who met on the skateboard but made a lifelong pact in the studio almost 10 years ago. Quickly identifying a shared vision and thirst for sonic communication, the pair have been asking themselves the questions above (and many more) since their earliest releases in the late 2000s. "We put so much effort and blood, sweat and tears into writing something that's unique and fresh and not already done," states Markus. "We don't want to be the next big radio act" "I wonder how long it will take till the bubble bursts? When radio moves on, everyone moves on… We want to make a deeper connection. We want people who stay with us and join the journey and not people who just respond to the hype and move-on as quickly after. But we can only do this if we are true to ourselves." With honesty and clarity as strong as their sonic signatures and musical passions, this is the sound of two men on a lifelong quest to understand and unravel the complex and subjective human relationship with music. This is the sound of two men at a newfound creative peak. Award list speaks for itself...

I love almost everything Mally makes and for as long as I've known about her brand I've wanted a liquid foundation from her. I was so excited to see her new Ultimate Performance Liquid Foundation (which QVC lists as her Ultimate Performance Full Coverage Foundation... which will confuse people looking for this because that's what her cream foundation is named on their website too; but that's another issue).
This foundation aired on QVC December 9th and sold out the same day, before the day was even over (I think it sold out around 3 or 4pm Eastern Time; could have been earlier). I ordered this foundation without ever seeing a presentation or reading the description. I just (very quickly, because I was too excited) selected Medium as my shade and purchased it, then I went back to read about it and later in the day checked out the online video of this foundation presentation on QVC. I kept stalking my mail lady, hoping it would arrive, and once it did I immediately ripped over the box and began testing it out without taking photos first (which is a no-no for me; I prefer to photograph a new item before I ever use it). What did I think of it? Did it live up to all the excitement I had for it? You'll have to read my review at the end of this post. Plus, I've included a Mally Beauty FOTD using all Mally Beauty products (except for my brows).
Check out my pics, swatches, stats and review...
Mally Ultimate Performance Liquid Foundation
Before & Afters...
Here are all three Before & Afters in one pic for easier comparison; click to view it larger.
Medium buildable coverage; it's not "complete coverage" as listed on QVC's website -- but a lot of foundations in regular markets are not complete coverage that claim to be. There are few that are like that; I only own one that truly lives up to that complete coverage title (Illuminare Extra Coverage Foundation -- which I seriously need to re-review for you all, including a before & after). I wouldn't necessarily call this full coverage either, but for many it may be the full coverage they've been looking for. For gals like me, who have lots of flaws to cover, you'll still need to pair this with a concealer and possibly build the coverage in areas of concern.
Average to above average wear, depending on your skin type and how you choose to set your foundation. More details on how it lasted on me in my review.
Shade Info:
Offered in Fair, Light, Medium, Tan or Rich. I chose the shade Medium, which is what I always choose with Mally's products. It works well on me, although I feel it may be just a little darker than her typical Medium shades.
$40 (1 fl oz full size). Available on QVC's website. Although at the time I wrote this article it was completely sold out. I'm sure QVC will bring more in soon.
Pink rounded tube with pull-off cap. There is a pump-top dispenser, which actually seems a little low-quality because it can turn and turn and turn without ever locking in place or anything -- and it also splatters the product when you pump it out the first time of each use. I somehow got a splatter of this foundation on my studio lights and I have no idea how it happened! It's not something that bothers me too much, but I would expect a lot more from a Mally product; maybe I just got one with bad packaging. I find that problem is going away the more I use it.
Mally Ultimate Performance Liquid Foundation Review:
I was really excited to try this out so I couldn't wait to open the box and start applying it. I usually always take photos first, then test a product, but I did the opposite with this because I was too excited. I first applied this using the method Mally recommends, which is taking it and rubbing it in between your fingers, then applying it to your face.
I felt that method went on nicely; it blended into my skin like a dream but it felt a big oily going on. I also really don't like to use fingertip application unless I don't have a brush or sponge with me. But I knew I had to test that application method at least once. It took awhile to dry/set on my face, noticeably longer than other liquid foundations I use, but it did dry down eventually. After it dried down (maybe around 10 minutes later) I applied Mally's Evercolor Poreless Face Defender - Solid and went out for some errands to test this foundation in the real world.
It lasted through my errands perfectly, but they only took about 3 or 4 hours total. When I went to check on how it looked at the 8 hour mark it had faded, but it didn't fade in the typical way a foundation fades on me. It's hard to explain, but foundations can break down on my face and look really odd -- clumpy almost, or gathered weird. Do you know what I mean? This foundation faded in a way that it looked like I just had on a lighter coverage foundation, if that makes sense. It didn't look crazy or odd; it still looked normal but my flaws were more visible.
While it does cover a lot of my flaws, making it fall into the full coverage category for most people with normal skin, it didn't cover them all and I still needed to use a concealer. To me, a "complete coverage" foundation means you don't need a concealer and like I mentioned, I only have one foundation like that (Illuminare's Extra Coverage Foundation) and actually Laura Mercier's Silk Creme Foundation is close to being complete coverage even for my flawed skin. But given all that, it does offer decent coverage.
I have to say that I do NOT like the fingertip application method which Mally recommends. Maybe it's because I have oily skin (although it's combo oily/dry in the winter), but that application method really is not best for me; it may work wonderfully for you though. I used this foundation three ways: fingertips, Beauty Blender Pure, and using my favorite brush for applying liquid foundations - my e.l.f. Cosmetics Studio Powder Brush.
Using the Beauty Blender Pure sponge worked nicely and I guess the only complaint was I felt I needed to use more product when I used that method, including building the coverage a lot more than I did using my fingers or the brush.
However, using the e.l.f. Cosmetics Studio Powder Brush (which is a flat-top brush) gave me the best results -- both immediately and long term. The foundation dried down a LOT quicker. It felt dry to the touch after just a couple minutes, as opposed to nearly 10 minutes I waited using fingertip application. It also lasted longer on my face, which my only guess would be due to the fact my fingers weren't touching my face --- your fingers will transfer oils on your face and can mess with your makeup and break down the formula (which I why I never prefer fingertip application). Once I used the brush application method I fell in love with the foundation. At the 8 hour mark it looked just as good as when I had first applied it; barely any fading whatsoever.
Of course depending on your skin type and application method will depend on how this foundation wears on you.
I did one final test with this foundation (before writing this blog post) and that was most recently at the Jason Mraz concert. I applied this foundation around 1:45pm initially, pairing it with Mally's Cancellation Conditioning Concealer for all my flaws and Mally's Cancellation Concealer System for under my eyes (old pics linked on that post; I have updated pics, including a photo tutorial, coming soon). Then I set my makeup with a few mists of Skindinavia's Makeup Finishing Spray, and a few minutes later added another layer of insurance on top using a very light dusting of Mally's Poreless Perfection Tinted Skin Finisher in Medium. I had planned to re-do my makeup before the concert anyway, because I knew the meet & greet was after and I didn't want my makeup to be gone by the photo opportunity. However, at 6:00pm when I looked in the mirror my face looked just the way it did when I first applied my makeup. Still, I didn't trust myself and re-did my makeup. Quickly taking it off and re-applying in the car on the way to the concert (my husband was driving). I did the same steps and my face looked good (not as good as when I took my time first applying it, but good for applying it in a moving car in the dark, using a cell phone as your light, lol). The concert was great; being front row meant lots of hot lights shined directly in my face (something I wasn't factoring into this whole thing). I could feel my face getting hot and I was worried my makeup was melting away. By the time the concert was over and we got in line for the meet & greet it was nearly 10:30pm. By the time I got up there to take a photo it was almost 11:15pm. I had no clue how I looked because I never checked a mirror before the photo; I just relied on the nice women I had made friends with at the concert (they sat next to me). I got the photos back and my makeup looks pretty good for lasting over 5 hours in hot lights, dancing, singing, etc. I was really happy with this foundation after that.
Overall I think this is a nice foundation, but I think it's one that will be custom to each person... meaning you'll have to find your perfect application method and if you need a setting spray/powder/etc. I would definitely suggest trying multiple methods before you decide it doesn't work for you. Even if you try one method and love it you should try other methods because you may find an even better way to use this.
