Jaime man is in trouble and there is only one way to get him out. What do you think a man addicted to 0.% interest rate loans will do? What can you call a man like Jamie Dimon? This guy is a classic that's the best way I can put it. If you want to watch some comedy pay attention to this guy's performance over the coming months. Talk about entertaining.
Funny man ceddy-b aka Cedric the entertainer better watch out. Did you hear about this dude on the conference call? When asked how did you loose all that money when you just told us a few weeks ago that everything was mui bien? This clown actually said, well we are stupid that doesn't mean everyone else is.
Honestly this was the most accurate thing this guy has said in years. The only thing he has done other than that is loose money and get bailed out by drowning tax payers. What balls these banker guys have it's truly epic. The bad thing for him is that he is right we are not stupid only he is. To actually believe the stuff this guy says is the definition of lunacy.
Since this latest JPM terd stain started streaking across the news the stock is down big. People are not very in to the Chase thing right now. Will they return?
What do you think their odds are of recovering? Well lets look at that, the good news is their stock is up almost 7% year to date. The bad news, their stock price has lost 32% in the last five years, its down 17% in the last 12 months, and 18% in the last month.
In the last five days the stock has lost over 12%. What will a guy like Jamie do to recover? Will he get a chance? Maybe he will get fired. Well the chances of that are very low because Jamie man is also the chairman of the board at Chase so he is the boss and his supervisor.
This means his demise can only come from his own actions. I don't mean he will commit suicide it will be more like homicide because he will do anything possible to avoid going down with the ship. This guy is a work of art. Watch what happens next how will Chase make up for the billions lost? What magic will they use to move what toxic assets off their balance sheet?
Facebook. Yeah well you can expect they will try to get as much of this deal as they can. Reports have facebook IPO at twelve times their annual earnings or about 12 billion dollars. With Chase involved on the IPO expect this number to hit the moon but this will be to the demise of Facebook who can only muster a meager 1 billion dollars in earnings per year. How are they going to return 12 billion dollars plus in value to IPO buyers?
Check out his performance this guy was born for broadway:

Caring For Vulnerably Low-Paid Families Via Cycling Around Taiwan
Reported by Chiu Kuo-ron
At 7:30 am in the early morning on December 23, boosted by a group of big drums amid about 1,000 cyclists from Taipei city, a team of 38 cyclists recruited from the Chinese Christian Relief Association (CCRA) and Studio Classroom launched their 15 days cycling around Taiwan. This charity cycling journey is about 1,300 kilometer long, intending to raise attention and money for mass vulnerably low-paid families across Taiwan.
According to Taiwan government's 2017 statistics of human resources and employment, among 8.98 million employees censused in Taiwan, there were still 3.05 million workers whose monthly salary was under USD 1,000. This meager phenomenon of low wage is a very serious crisis of Taiwan, not to mention those 805,000 part-time workers not covered in this report.
Rev Shia Chung-chien, General Secretary of CCRA, expressed that these low-paid families were very easily exposed to risks of natural disaster, severe working-injury or abrupt laid-off suddenly happened around the corner.
As in current Taiwan, there were no budgetary subsidy, government resource or tax exemption available to protect these low-paid families with an urgent relief, this is why the charity event of cycling around Taiwan was held to call Taiwan society to act for our most vulnerable brothers and sisters, Rev Shia remarked.

As part of a Wesleyan-Holiness denomination, our beliefs are defined by the Church of the Nazarene's articles of faith. Our denomination has also published this condensed version of our beliefs.
- We believe in one God who has expressed himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe that the Holy Scriptures communicate God's message of salvation and is authoritative in all matters related to faith and Christian living.
- We believe that humanity is born with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil.
- We believe that the love and grace of God has been extended to every person through the atonement of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
- We believe that Christian experience is more than a change of mind. It is accompanied by a transformation in the life of the believer, and by assurance that is grounded in both the Holy Scriptures and the inner witness of the Holy Spirit.
- We believe in a second work of grace in the life of the believer. The Scriptures name this second work as "sanctification". Sanctification is the work of God by which believers are brought into a state of complete devotion to God. It is preceded by a moment in which the believer consecrates their entire life to God. We believe that the Holy Spirit gives witness to the sanctified life, and that the sanctified life expresses itself in our actions, attitudes, and service.
- We believe that our Lord will return, our mortal bodies will be raised, and Christ will judge the earth.
- We believe that all who live for Jesus Christ have an eternal future. Our belief in such a future includes both the fulfillment of God's creative purpose as well as the accountability of all persons endowed with the power of choice.
- We believe that unless one experiences God's salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, their future is one of eternal separation from God.

Public opinion of 3-D movies
Consider this when thinking about producing a 3-D feature, short, commerical or special: current public opinion of 3-D film is quite negative. On the public boards of the Internet Movie Database, the following opinions on stereoscopic film can be found:
"Since it is 3-D, then the plot is ussually like a dirt-land because the 'producers' have to spend time *perfecting* the 3-D anmimations. Take a look at 'Spy Kids 3-D': it sucked."
Fdf-10 [1]
"In a normal film in general and a horror film in general much of the background is utilised. With a 3-D movie the opposite is put into force where much of the action takes place in the foreground."
Theo Robertson [2]
Stevenhigney [3]
These remarks touch briefly upon what could and should make a 3-D movie great and what currently makes 3-D movies not great at all. This is discussed in depth in 3-D Revolution Productions' 3-D Movie Theory section and it shouts out at stereoscopic movie producers, directors, writers, storyboarders and cameramen to approach 3-D in a serious, unique and complete way.

Hebrew Institute of White Plains
When: Sunday, May 6, 2018 @ 5pm
Where: Congregation Kol Ami, 252 Soundview Ave, White Plains, NY 10606
68th Annual Testimonial Dinner
Our Honorees
Deborah Guthartz
Norma Hurwitz
Adina & Aaron Steinberg
Deborah Guthartz
Little did I know when I first stepped foot inside the Hebrew Institute 35 years ago, that it would become a place so central to my life; and it remains so, after all these years. Looking back now, I am not surprised, as synagogue life and volunteerism were modeled beautifully, by my parents and grandparents. Marc and I moved to White Plains 42 years ago, shortly after we were married. We chose White Plains for its affordable housing, proximity to our parents (in Ct and the Bronx), easy commute to jobs (NYC and Scarsdale), varied choice of synagogues and, kosher butchers nearby. We had always assumed then, that we would join the conservative synagogue here but when I decided one Shabbat morning to take a walk down the street with my then 5 year old son, and was greeted so warmly at HI, I was hooked. Shortly after that first Shabbat, I convinced Marc to come along and give it a try and you can figure out the rest.
The Hebrew Institute then, had only a handful of young families with children and we quickly became involved with them in synagogue life here, helping to develop new programs for our children and ourselves. The older members of the congregation at that time were thrilled to have helpers to work alongside them and we were happy to learn from their experience and eventually, take over from them. It didn't take long for HI to become an integral and central part of our lives. I am happy to say that I have always felt enriched by and through my involvement here.
Marc and I raised our three sons (Seth, Noah and Rafi) and started and built our home healthcare business, here in White Plains. Marc involved himself in our business's development, growth and service delivery and I ran the back office, concerned with billing and payroll. Although I am grateful for and proud of the business that we built, my fulfillment has come through family and then with my volunteer work, both at HI and at Solomon Schechter. There I served as PTA Treasurer and then as a Co-President, and was involved in many exciting projects including the Schechter Haggadah and on the Steering Committee that first conceived of, proposed and developed the Israel Trip, which has now become an integral part of the school curriculum.
Marc and I were and remain, a team, and have helped with countless Shabbat and holiday celebrations, numerous fundraising efforts both large and small, as well as social and social action programs here, making lasting and cherished friendships and memories, through our involvement. I am humbled to be honored along with Norma Hurwitz and Adena and Aaron Steinberg. I do what I do because I love our shul and get so much out of and learn so much, working alongside people like them. We are all so fortunate that role models abound here and I thank Rabbi Marder and Suzie for their friendship, leadership.
I served on the synagogue Board of Directors for at least 10 years (before term limits) and on the Management Committee as Women's Focus Officer. I was privileged to be involved (along with Roxanne Levine) in the founding of Women's Tefillah, over 21 years ago. I am so grateful to Rabbi Marder for his encouragement and support then and his ongoing commitment to expanding opportunities for women at HI.
Approximately ten years ago, Milton Hoffman z'l, asked if I'd be willing to help him with our HI Bulletin; he had pretty much single-handedly been producing it since our family first joined HI. His were big shoes to fill but I stepped in and was happy to help. Thanks to the expertise of Teri Kopp, the bulletin continues and is something that I think of as a tribute to Milton's memory; he considered it to be an important historical document for our institution.
Thankfully, the Hebrew Institute has grown and changed over these 35 years and I am thrilled that when my grandchildren visit, they can participate in exciting kids programs with so many others of their age. Yet with our growth, the one quality that brought us here, remains to this day. I am grateful to be part of this warm, welcoming and most special community of friends, and friends that have become like family and I thank you for this honor.
Norma Hurwitz
I am so honored having been selected as an honoree alongside the truly worthy recipients, Deborah Guthartz and Adina and Aaron Steinberg. Synagogue life has been a part of me always. My father z'l Judge Jules M. Bornstein and my dear husband Jerry served as presidents of Congregation Sons of Israel in Yonkers and Jerry also served HIWP as president.
I have been a regular Shabbat attendee since learning how to daven beside my beloved grandmother z'l Eva Bornstein.
Yonkers born and bred I am a proud graduate of Yonkers High School. At Smith College where I earned my BA, I was president of Hillel. My Masters from Columbia Teachers College prepared me for my teaching career at Edgemont High School, Westchester Hebrew High and 37 years as a religious school teacher at the Jewish Community Center of Harrison.
I am most proud of my continued commitment to Jewish learning. My mentor, Dr. Miriam Klein Shapiro z'l, guided me through Westchester Board of Jewish Education classes and I was in her first graduating group of certified Jewish Family Educators. At Temple Israel Center where we belonged before joining HIWP in 1991, I was instrumental in securing instructors for their Educational Institute which I still attend.
There are many facets to my life at HIWP. I have served with Jane Grauer as a dinner co-chair, worked with Jonathan Ament on his intergenerational committee, helped to bring speakers and programs here, participated in Synagogue 2000, and served on the Nominating Committee. It's wonderful that HIWP offers so much to us all. I have enjoyed Mofia and mah jong, been a keen supporter of our book group and of course I am a proud-but not too competitive member of the Wednesday Thrift Shop group.
I truly love my HIWP community- young and older. I miss my Shabbat seat mates, Roz Kurz and Yetta Kaplan.
For 52 years Jerry has been at my side as we raised our dear children Stuart and Roberta and now enjoy the 5 delicious grandchildren that they have given us.
I am grateful always for the loving family I have. The memory of my parents, Ruth and Jules and all the special friends I hold dear. HIWP has certainly become a most important part of my life and I truly appeciate your friendship and this honor.
Adina & Aaron Steinberg
Adina and Aaron Steinberg moved to White Plains in 2013. They were looking for a warm synagogue community that would offer a meaningful and challenging religious experience for a growing family. Although they came to White Plains with a 2-year-old, they now have three young children: Dahlia, Judah, and Noah. They quickly fell in love with the Hebrew Institute community, and the entire family is excited to participate in Shabbat services, holidays, special events and more.
Adina works at SAR Academy as the Director of Middle School Student Programs. She also is a teacher of 8th grade Tanach and Math. Her passion for tefillah and torah study led her to become involved in the women's tefillah committee of HIWP. Although she had never previously held a sefer torah, she quickly learned how to leyn, lead full Shabbat morning services and assume the role of Gabbait. Adina is now the co-chair of the Women's Tefillah Committee, and is the primary liaison to the HIWP Yoetzet Halacha. She has also contributed greatly to the Youth Committee, special events, taught teen programs on Shavuot.
Aaron is Deputy Director of The Bronfman Fellowship, a pluralistic community for Jewish thought leaders, activists, and influencers. He has previously held professional roles at JOFA, SAR Academy and Yeshiva University. His experience working for Jewish non-profits and sitting on the boards of Jewish organizations over the past 12 years led him to get involved early on at the Hebrew Institute, first with the Kiddush committee and ultimately to lead the youth committee for three years during the tenure of youth directors Sam Pearlson and Ayala Raice. He has served on the HIWP Board of Trustees since 2014, advocating for families with young children and working to keep the community as warm and welcoming as it has been known to be for years.
White Plains is their home, and the Hebrew Institute their community. Together, Adina and Aaron along with their three children plan to continue contributing to this unique and wonderful Hebrew Institute community in increased and varying ways over the coming years. Roles change, and needs evolve, but this is the community they call home and are committed to help grow.
A rhyming couplet (Because, why not?)
Around the bend of Big Ralph Avenue,
Is a house that's robin blue.
Judah is biking round the street,
Noah's finding tasty things to eat,
Dahlia holds the bat for a swing,
Adina finds an audience to sing.
Aaron's coffee isn't far from hand,
Welcome to our White Plains promised land.

As the inevitability of the government's refusal to enforce local loop unbundling sinks in, Telecom is working on a wholesale strategy designed to keep its competitors from going to the Commerce Commission.
Strategy and planning manager Martin Butler says the wholesale unit is developing two services to offer other telcos and ISPs that should be operating later this year.
"We realise that if we offered a service that our competitors found unpalatable they'd simply pay the $20,000 and go to the commission. We're trying to offer a service that's workable for all concerned."
The first service, unbundled partial circuits (UPC), will allow competing ISPs to use Telecom's network in areas where there is no competition. This service, to be aimed at business users, was put forward by Telecom during the Commerce Commission's deliberations on unbundling and is part of the reason the commission decided not to require unbundling of the local loop.
"We hope to get it out into the market by June. Originally we said July but that's moved forward since then."
As a layer two rather than layer three network service, competitors could use the connection any way they like, says Butler, effectively having control over quality of service. Layer three services merely allow ISP customers to watch the traffic go by without being able to shape or change any of the services they were on-selling.
"They get to put whatever they want over the network and we don't see what it is at that level. It could be video conferencing, IP, frame. It's pretty much protocol-agnostic."
Telecom has undertaken not to offer the product directly to corporate customers.
The second service, Telecom's unbundled bitstream service (UBS), is aimed at residential broadband users and will also allow access at layer two.
"Initially it will be the 256kbit/s downstream, 128kbit/s upstream that the commissioner has recommended."
Butler says that is likely to change over time to allow ISPs to resell other services at different data rates, but probably not for a year or more.
ICONZ general manager Sean Weekes says the service sounds fine in principle but it will have little short-term market effect.
Weekes says ICONZ is interested in the entire wholesale suite.
"It should allow us to offer products and services as our customers require."
Weekes says he believes the government will stick with the commissioner's recommendation not to unbundle and so it makes sense for ICONZ from a business perspective to review the alternatives.

Thank you so much for visiting The Affluence Network International Ltd in looking for "What Is The Affluence Network Qualified affiliate" online.
Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put in circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to produce more. The mining process is what produces more of the coin. It may be useful to consider the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you'll really get to keep the full rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your likelihood of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members are going to have much greater chance of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, depending on the number of shares won.
If you're thinking of going it alone, it is worth noting that the applications settings for solo mining can be more complex than with a swimming pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter course. This alternative also creates a stable stream of revenue, even if each payment is small compared to entirely block the benefit.
Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have been designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers assert that there is real worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth climbs due to computing power, that's, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame which is worth an ever declining amount of currency or some type of benefit in order to ensure the deficit. Each coin includes many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. The person who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it to a value is supplied by another address, which is a wallet file saved on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of all transactions resides.
The fact that there is little evidence of any increase in the use of virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal efforts to regulate it. The reason behind this could be simply that the market is too small for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory attempt. It's also possible the regulators simply do not comprehend the technology and its consequences, expecting any developments to act.
In the case of a fully-functioning cryptocurrency, it may possibly be exchanged being a product. Supporters of cryptocurrencies proclaim that sort of virtual cash is not managed by a fundamental banking system and it is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Since there are always a minimal variety of goods, this coinis worth is based on market forces, enabling entrepreneurs to trade over cryptocurrency deals.
The sweetness of the cryptocurrencies is that scam was proved an impossibility: due to the nature of the method in which it is transacted. All purchases over a crypto-currency blockchain are irreversible. When youare paid, you get paid. This is not something short term where your web visitors may dispute or demand a refunds, or employ dishonest sleight of palm. In practice, most professionals could be wise to make use of a fee processor, due to the irreversible nature of crypto-currency transactions, you must make sure that stability is difficult. With any type of crypto-currency whether a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or any of the numerous different altcoins, thieves and hackers could potentially get access to your personal secrets and therefore steal your money. However, you most likely can never have it back. It is vitally important for you to undertake some great secure and safe practices when coping with any cryptocurrency. This will guard you from all of these adverse events.

Bitcoin is the main cryptocurrency of the internet: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, world-wide, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there's no governments, banks, or every other regulatory agencies. As such, it's more immune to wild inflation and corrupt banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting money online outweigh the protection and privacy threats. Security and privacy can readily be attained by simply being intelligent, and following some basic guidelines. You'dn't put your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be secured by removing any identity of ownership from your wallets and thus keeping you anonymous.
This mining activity validates and records the trades across the entire network. So if you are trying to do something illegal, it is not wise because everything is recorded in the public register for the remainder of the world to see eternally.
Since one of the oldest forms of earning money is in money lending, it's a fact you could do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving websites now focus on Bitcoin, many of these websites you might be needed fill in a captcha after a specific period of time and are rewarded with a bit of coins for visiting them. You are able to visit the www.cryptofunds.co web site to find some lists of of these websites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin marketplaces have very different dynamics. New ones are always popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical perspective for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have fairly inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to think of a reasonable investment strategy.
Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which suggests the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Many people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the quantity of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. Additionally, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. So, even the most diligent buyer could not purchase all present bitcoins. This scenario is just not to imply that markets usually are not exposed to price manipulation, yet there is no requirement for substantial amounts of money to move market prices up or down. The slightest occasions in the world economy can affect the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency volatile.

For most users of cryptocurrencies it's not essential to understand how the procedure works in and of itself, but it's essentially crucial that you understand that there's a process of mining to create virtual currency. Unlike currencies as we know them now where Authorities and banks can simply choose to print unlimited numbers (I am not saying they are doing so, just one point), cryptocurrencies to be operated by users using a mining program, which solves the advanced algorithms to release blocks of currencies that can enter into circulation.
You've probably noticed this many times where you usually distribute the nice word about crypto. It is not risky? What goes on if the price accidents? sofar, several POS devices provides free conversion of fiat, improving some concern, but until the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, many people is going to be unwilling to carry any. We have to find a way to struggle the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies.
Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too fast, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted immediately, Ethereum requests could grow drastically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the entire stage of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the raising costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether can result in an adverse change in the economical parameters of an Ethereum based business which could lead to business being unable to continue to run or to stop operation.

It should be challenging to get more small increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study the way to read these Candlestick charts! And I discovered these two rules to be accurate: having small increases is more profitable than trying to fight up to the peak. Most day traders follow Candlestick, therefore it is better to take a look at publications than wait for order confirmation when you think the cost is going down.

You have probably heard this often times where you generally spread the good word about crypto. It's not volatile? What happens when the value crashes? sofar, several POS devices provides free conversion of fiat, improving some matter, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, most of the people will soon be resistant to carry any. We must find a method to combat the volatility that's inherent in cryptocurrencies.

After many months on Test Center, Marvel Heroes' "Biggest Update Ever" is finally on live servers. Those of you logging in to check the update out for the first time are likely to feel overwhelmed by all the changes. Skill points are gone. Characters scale off of different stats. Everyone has rows of talents to pick from. Some characters even have entirely new powers to play with! It can be a lot to take in. Heck, I almost gave up on my main (X-23) after fiddling around with her. She was sort of playable in the past, but I felt this massive update was her one critical opportunity to get some attention from the developers. She's just not super popular. Luckily, the update was actually quite good to Laura, so I want to take this week's column to share what I've put together to get the most out of the character.
My Laura build leans on her movement specialization. The respective bleed-related talents and powers will work as well, if that's what you're looking for, but she feels noticeably more powerful focused on the movement side of things.
Now that we've got all the setup out of the way, how does X-23 actually play? It all comes down to Cyclone Kick, Open the Jugular, and Dancing Blades. You want to open up combat with Crimson Sweep to apply vulnerability and then blow all five of your Dancing Blades charges onto your target. Now go into Cyclone Kick and then Open the Jugular. Follow this with a Rending Leap to either reset the cooldowns of both Kick and Jugular altogether, or shave four seconds off of Kick's cooldown. Spam Capoeira in between cooldowns. The key to successfully pulling off this rotation is making sure you're using Kick and Jugular while Killer Trance, the buff that triggers when all charges of Dancing Blades are expended, is active. Using these abilities during this buffs uptime will restore charges to Dancing Blades, allowing you to weave your signature into your primary rotation.
Dancing Blades also restores all Wrath once its charges are expended, so you don't want to just blow your newly earned charges as soon as you get them. You'll want to make sure you get in enough Capoeira spam and have enough Wrath to continue to accrue charges throughout combat. This is both a fun and clunky aspect of X-23. It's fun in that you get to interact with your signature like few other heroes on the roster do, but it's also clunky in that you can find yourself completely without resources and thus waiting for the lengthy 40s second full cooldown of your signature if you aren't properly managing your charges.
For me, this often happens in between fights. I'll get through a fight and then move on to the next one without using Cyclone Kick and Open the Jugular to regain charges. Now that I've played this build a bunch, I make a habit of pressing the buttons even between fights when there aren't enemies around to ensure that I don't show up to the next one without any Dancing Blades charges. Once you've nailed this rhythm down though, you'll be leaving a trail of bloody corpses in your wake wherever you go.

We Are:
A community of teachers, parents/caregivers and students who are working to be our best selves. Come join us!
Daer Lawrence Families,
At the last Principal's Coffee on Tuesday, January 29th, Kathleen Hubbard, PSB Mathematics Coordinator for Grades K-8, the Lawrence math specialists/coaches and I are met with parents/caregivers to share the district/Lawrence vision for the teaching of mathematics at Lawrence School for all students in grades K-8.
"Our goal as a district and as a school is to build the capacity of all teachers of math (classroom teachers, Special Education teachers, and math teachers) to provide high quality, equity driven, differentiated instruction within their classrooms.
Our vision is that all students, regardless of age, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, race, gender, etc. will engage in rich learning experiences that provide equitable access for all, leading to a deep understanding of math concepts."
They shared the type of mathematical experiences, opportunities, routines and assessments that are designed to encourage mathematical growth for all students. I have included the link below for your review. In case you were not able to attend. I have shared the PowerPoint link below.
I would like to thank Kathleen Hubbard, Katy McGraw, Laura Koplow and Julieta Roz for planning and executing an informative and interactive presentation.
We Want Your Input - Please complete our Family Feedback Survey.
The survey begin on January 22. Please look for an email from Panorama Education on January 22 with a link to the survey. We urge all of our families to participate!
Please keep an eye out for our annual Family Feedback Survey. These surveys are a great opportunity for you to let us know what is working and what can be improved at the Lawrence School. Based on last year's survey, we have focused on relationship building with all stakeholders, and the VPs and I created a chart of "administrative / guidance partnerships"; each staff member, organized by grade band, was assigned a key administrator partner that they could feel empowered to contact for support or with any questions.
Last year we had 21.7% of our families respond. This year our goal is to have all families respond. We want every family's voice to be heard. These surveys provide valuable and helpful feedback about the climate, culture, and leadership at our school and around the district. Our teachers and leaders need to hear what you think the school is doing well and also what we can improve.
The survey begin on January 22. Please look for an email from Panorama Education on January 22 with a link to the survey. We urge all of our families to participate!
Dear Lawrence Families,
The Lawrence staff believes in the power of a growth mindset for all of our students and every staff member. One of the ways the staff tries to support and help each other grow is by sharing articles that can help us strengthen our capacity to educate all children. Lesley Fagen recently shared this article with the Lawrence staff, and I felt it might be useful to parents/caregivers. Feel free to substitute the word parent or caregiver for the word educator and the words student/s with your child's name.
I hope you find this article interesting and useful.
The Why Is Everything
Helping your students find their motivation on the path to success
BY:Grace Tatter, Jill Anderson
Harvard Graduate School of Education
Everyone loves a dark horse story: Albert Einstein struggled as a student. J.K. Rowling was on welfare before selling her Harry Potter manuscript. Oprah was fired from one of her first jobs before becoming a media mogul. But we usually consider such people, who followed unconventional, unexpected routes to success, to be aberrations, their paths unable to be replicated.
In some ways, they are — but there's still a lot to learn from them, says Harvard Graduate School of Education Lecturer Todd Rose. Rose, who heads HGSE's Laboratory for the Science of the Individual,believes that educators can do more to help all of their students be "dark horses," shepherding them along individualized paths to careers and lives that address each student's unique mosaic of motivations.
He describes his latest book, Dark Horse: Achieving Success Through the Pursuit of Fulfillment, as a kind of "user's manual for the dark horse mindset." He knows the mindset well; before he was a Harvard professor, he was a high school dropout. He forged his own path to success only after realizing what it was that truly motivated him.
Here are some ways that teachers can bring that mindset, with its emphasis on personal fulfillment as both a means and an end to success, to their classrooms. (Note: They just might help adults find fulfillment, too.)
Dear Families,
Vacations are wonderful for families and friends to spend quality time together. Whether you are staying local or travelling, vacation is time to reconnect, continue to learn about each other and from each other, and engage in activities that may not be readily available during the busy school/work week. The following ideas are possibilities for students and their families to put on a "To Do" list for the December break. How many can your family do?
-Go to the library and take out a book of every family member's choice.
-Read the books and discuss the parts you like the best while sipping hot cocoa.
-Have your child map out a walking loop that is two miles long near your home.
-Go on the two-mile walk, two times during the December vacation.
-When you have to go to the supermarket, have your child tell you the cost of each item and guess how much the total cost will be before you get to the checkout counter.
-Play a board game.
-Pick out a recipe and cook it together as a family.
-Have all family members agree on one movie they all want to watch. Sit down with some treats, no phones and watch the whole movie in one sitting!
-Take two pictures of each family, print them out and then make a family collage!
Have a spectacular December break!

Helping Kids Grow Into Themselves as Students
Since the beginning of the public schooling movement in the U.S., educators have worked to support students in becoming independent, autonomous learners. In 1848, Horace Mann wrote that pupils "must learn for themselves" by "putting forth personal effort." Otherwise, he noted, ideas learned in school would "find no permanent lodgment" in the mind of the student. Despite this early guidance, teacher-directed activities such as lectures and assignments with little choice have been the predominant modes of teaching and learning in U.S. schools.
In my first few months at Lawrence, I've observed that students at our school have real opportunities to work with independence. In first grade, students wrote not one small moment narrative but many, moving on to further stories independently after finishing the first one. In fourth and fifth grades, students in a number of classes have begun discussing books in book clubs, where they can set the agenda themselves, prepare with questions, and set their own assignments, just as adults might do!
In middle school, students have had opportunities to work as independent leaders both inside the classroom and out. I frequently see 8th grade partners helping in the classrooms of younger students, and last week 6th through 8th grade students chaperoned students at movie day with ownership and caring. At Farm School, I saw 7th grade students take responsibility for cooking dinner, feeding animals, and more. As the year goes along, we will continue to put our older students in positions where they need to rise to challenges, and students will grow because of it.
Of course, when students are asked to work independently, we more often see them struggle. We see this struggle as desirable, productive, and even a little scary, as we so want to see students succeed. Teachers have a number of ways of helping students when they struggle, including working with them in small groups, showing mentor examples of student work, and more. I've also been so impressed by the work of the specialists who support students in literacy, math, English language skills, and more, many of whom are not known by everyone in our school. They know so much about their students and the subject matter that they teach, and their work with teachers helps all students at our school.
In an era in which we have information at our fingertips, technology has helped all of us become more independent, curious learners. In only a few months at Lawrence school, I've seen so many opportunities for our students to work with autonomy, and be supported in doing so.

Dear Lawrence Families,
I hope your children had a restful and fun day off on Friday, November 9, 2018. While the students were not in school, staff participated in three professional development sessions over the course of the day. We had an invigorating and informative day where staff were engaged in learning with each other, all in service to inform instruction to meet the needs of every one of our amazing students!
For the past two years, we joined other Brookline staff and gathered at Brookline High School to hear from keynote speakers, Beverly Daniel Tatum in 2016 and Jamie Almanzan in 2017. After each speaker, we broke into small groups to reflect on the messages of each presentation, which included inclusion, active anti-racist work, and valuing all students.
This year, each school was provided time to plan and execute professional development opportunities that aligned specifically with the needs of the school as we continue to strive for equity. The day was divided into three ninety-minute sessions. Staff gathered as a whole group for the first session and then by grade bands. The session topics are listed below.
Session 1:
Strengthening Relationships: High Expectations and Support for All Students.
(All staff attended)
Staff reviewed responses from the Lawrence family and staff surveys from spring, 2018 that asked questions about school climate, relationships, respecting diverse backgrounds and supporting all students.
Then staff read four selections from "Everyday Anti-Racism" that relate to building relationships and fostering high expectations and the supports needed to meet those expectations for all students. Then they identified action items to try and put into practice.
Action Items:
Commit to three action items ("Try Tomorrow") that relate to the articles to use during the month of November/December to…
We will review the implementation of the action items and their effectiveness at our January faculty meetings.
Session 2: Looking at Current Student Work to Inform Instruction and Risk Training for Middle School Staff.
*K-2: Math
(Classroom teachers, special education teachers, EL staff, paraprofessionals, and interns/student teachers attended)
Goal: By the end of this session, teachers began planning for differentiated instruction based on a deeper understanding of specific math content and their students' current thinking.
Staff discussed what equity in math instruction looks like now and how they can affect it with a focus on Jo Boaler's and National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Equity statements.
MCAS data and student specific data administered to all students K-5 this fall.
Each grade identified one standard/ math goal of the three choices to focus on.
Grade level teams identified and defined solid understanding of math concept and thought about what leads to that understanding.
Staff looked at student work to identify different student entry points and then planned for instruction (lessons and activities) in response to different student groupings.
*3-5: Literacy
(Classroom teachers, special education teachers, EL staff, paraprofessionals, and interns/student teachers attended)
The focus of this session was to deepen our understanding of narrative writing, develop an understanding of struggling writers, create a focus plan to use during instructional writing contexts when working with students and begin our work of looking vertically of narrative writing K-5.
Staff reviewed and analyzed student writing of all abilities, strengthened their understanding of expected grade level quality writing K-5, and planned for instruction to grow all our student writers.
*6-8: Risk Training
(Classroom teachers, special education teachers, art/PE/music and health specialists, K-8 guidance, psychologist, paraprofessionals, and interns/student teachers attended)
The goal of this session was to increase the confidence level of all 6-8 staff in dealing with students in crisis, clarify steps a staff member should take if they are concerned about a student, and to clarify role of staff member and role of the guidance counselor.
Session 3:
Looking at Current Student Work to Inform Instruction and Identifying the Strengths of Every Middle Scholl Student.
*K-2: Literacy
(Classroom teachers, special education teachers, EL staff, paraprofessionals, and interns/student teachers attended)
Read description above.
*3-5: Math
(Classroom teachers, special education teachers, EL staff, paraprofessionals, and interns/student teachers attended)
Read description above.
*6-8: Valuing Every Child
As middle school educators teach over 80 students, more if one teaches health, art, music and PE, staff took the time to reflect on every student's positive personality and academic strengths. They then identified which observations they would select to share as comments in the first term report card to communicate their perceptions to each student.
I have included a few comments about the school based professional development day from various staff.
"Thank you for the excellent day of learning today- I thoroughly enjoyed having a chance to collaborate with the team and others. I loved the readings you shared this morning (some quotes from those article will be making their way into my teaching portfolio soon!)"
"Great PD day today folks! Powerful things happened. Seriously. Way to go."
"Every session was so useful. I am able to use all of the learning immediately!"
"Thank you for planning such a wonderful day today! It was all really inspiring and thought provoking. The first session was really powerful and made me think of one of my one students in particular...."
"Thank you so much for a very productive and enjoyable PD Day. I feel energized and
more connected to the teachers with whom I collaborate, and with the faculty in general."
"Today was productive in terms of both school-based work as well as community-building. I feel so very fortunate to work at this school and to have you as an administrator and guide. "
Dear Lawrence Families,
The staff and I could not be more grateful for the incredible support of the Lawrence PTO and the Brookline Education Foundation (BEF). The PTO raises a great deal of money every year and then uses those donations to support staff by providing stipends to every teacher to use for their classroom, award grants for staff to engage in professional development to strengthen their craft, and purchase resources that allow for greater student engagement.
Additionally, the BEF awards multiple grants every year to educators across the district. Below is a list of Lawrence recipients this past year.
THANK YOU PTO and BEF!
The following Lawrence School educators have received BEF grants:
Meredith Ritter, 3rd- 8th Grade Visual Arts
Art New England: Color Studio
Ms. Ritter will attend the "Color Studio Course with Nancy McCarthy" at an Art New
England workshop run through the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. The
workshop assists artists to take the basic concepts of value, hue, and saturation to
the next level. While working on her own practice, she also hopes to translate
knowledge and experiences from this course into her work with her middle school
students in two Brookline schools.
Kaitlin Robinson, K-3 Spanish
Attending the Northeast Conference of the Teaching of Foreign Languages
Ms. Robinson will attend the 2019 Northeast Conference of the Teaching of Foreign
Languages. The conference will address subjects including: integration of culture,
content, and language; authentic classroom discourse; and performance-based
assessment. She hopes to acquire concrete techniques and activities to apply to her
Spanish classes, as well as learn new things that will inspire her work.
Kathleen Moriarty, Librarian
Diverse Learners, Diverse Libraries: American Library Association Annual Conference
Librarians from three Brookline schools will attend the 2018 Annual Conference of
the American Library Association. This conference brings together leaders in the
field and will expose participants to new materials, enhance their knowledge on
diverse books and authors, and inform them about programming occurring in
schools and public libraries nationwide. Our librarians will focus particularly on
enhancing their knowledge of current and diverse materials and methods for the K-
12 student body, and bring new ideas and energy toward the ongoing goal of
building collections that reflect the diversity of students in the Brookline district.
They will share this knowledge with all school librarians in the Brookline schools.
Kaitlin Robinson, K-3 Spanish
Fostering Spanish Language Comprehension and Literacy with Puppets
This collaborative grant will allow six elementary Spanish teachers to receive
puppetry training through workshops with Brookline Puppet Showplace Theater.
These teachers will then work together to design engaging lessons and materials
that will apply to their curriculum. They will implement the work in their classes,
which they expect will bring the language to life and increase student
Susan Flegenheimer, Russell Morin, Nicole Poirier, Speech and Language
Speech and Language ASHA National Conference 2018
Speech and language pathologists from every Brookline school will join other field
professionals to attend the 2018 American Speech Language and Hearing
Association (ASHA) national conference taking place in Boston. This premier
conference of speech and language offers opportunities to learn about the latest
research, clinical practice, skills, and resources needed to improve school based
SLPs' work, and the chance to network with national and international leaders in the
Jill Demsey, Literacy Coach
Teachers College Reading and Writing Project Coaching Institute, Year 2
This grant will allow the remaining seven Brookline Literacy Coaches to attend the
Teacher's College Reading and Writing Project Coaching Institute. Last year, four
coache, including Lawrence's Dianne Muendel, attended the Institute through a BEF grant. The coaches will strengthen
their knowledge of the writing curriculum that the District adopted three years ago,
and will be able to support teachers through classroom coaching and professional
Lawrence educators will also participate in the following Systemwide
Leadership Team Retreats
In the 2018 - 2019 school year, the District Leadership Team includes a high
number of administrators in their first or second year in Brookline, or in interim
positions. This BEF grant will extend District Leadership team building and
leadership development work by funding three off-site retreats to be held
throughout the academic year.
New and Interim Principal/Administrator Mentoring Program
Recognizing the importance of the first few years in a new leadership role, as well as
the ongoing transition in the Principal positions, this grant, now in its third year, will
continue to support new and interim Brookline School leaders with a mentoring
program during their period of transition.
Dear Lawrence 6-8 Families,
First quarter Interim Progress Reports were published for students and parents/guardians on the Parent Portal on October 11, 2018. (If you have not logged on to the portal-it is necessary to do so in order to view IPR grades and future report cards. Dates of future IPRs and report cards are below. Please scroll all the way down)
If you have any questions about log in process, contact firstname.lastname@example.com
Please know that there are no IPR grades for the first quarter for art, PE, conservatory and health as they only meet either once or twice a week, and the staff is still getting to know your children. Grades for these classes will be included on the first quarter report card to be issued on the portal on November 15th.
Positive Communication: One Tool for Success
All students want to be successful. We all want our children to develop a love of learning that enables them to discover their strengths and passions as they bolster areas of development.
In an article called "The Paradox of Pushing our Kids to Succeed," Dr. Lynn Margolies suggests: "Our teens are embedded in a culture driven by competition and perfectionism, where by success is defined by status, performance and appearance. These values are transmitted to our children through our emotional state and through what we notice, are impressed with, and praise or discourage them in…
Pushing teens to be the best is well-intentioned…Ironically, parents' hyper vigilance about teen's grades and future success backfires psychologically and academically. When parents are overly invested in performance, kids are less likely to develop their own, more sustainable, motivation.
Further making the stakes too high engenders fear, leading teens to avert possible failure at all costs. This level of stress propels homework avoidance, compromises executive functions, inhibits curiosity and new challenges and increases lying."
Both home and school supports are instrumental in the academic, social and emotional growth of every child. Throughout the year students receive reports that indicate how they are achieving at a given time. These updates are provided to communicate how students are doing in their classes and provide information to help guide discussions that focus on continued success and/or improvements in the future.
Grades 6-8 Interim Progress Reports/Report Cards:
Interim progress reports are given half way through each quarter. This is a great time to talk to your child about how he/she feels he/she is doing in each class. If he/she has concerns or questions, contacting the teacher at this point is helpful to discuss the issue and create a plan for improvement.
In addition to Interim Progress Reports, report cards are given at the end of each quarter to share with parents/guardians how their child performed during the term. It should be used as a tool to self reflect on the past term and make goals for the upcoming term.
Reviewing IPRs and report cards should be a positive and productive learning experience:

Happy listening, talking and guiding,
Monica, Maisha and Peter
I write to share a friendly reminder that the doors to school open at 7:50am. All students and families are asked to wait outside until 7:50am. However, if you child eats breakfast at school, s/he can enter the side doors that go to the cafeteria at 7:30am. The doors will not open before 7:30am, as we do not have adults to supervise students before 7:30am. Thanks for your support with this procedure!
Principal/Vice Principals' Blog
October 1, 2018
The love is apparent. Lawrence has come alive with a flurry of activity, awe, and wonderment as students and teachers eagerly explore new topics from government to goal setting and everything in between. Venturing into sixth grade science class, students could be found weighing carrots during an experiment, calculating the amount of water lost and creating diagrams to convey this information within groups. During a second grade writing lesson, students readily shared their Stories of Self as they explored their individual identities. An eighth grade Social Studies lesson delved into rights, responsibilities, laws, and their derivation. Third graders treated passers-by to an impromptu performance of "Hot Cross Buns" on recorders as sweet symphonic sounds from Conservatory classes in grades 4-8 wafted through the air, from strings and brass to a beautiful chorus of melodic voices. World Language presentations kicked off in high gear as middle schoolers partnered with teachers to build linguistic proficiency through reading, writing, listening, and speaking while K-5 students moved fluidly through target vocabulary with fun games and activities.
Our students' successes are our own. Through collective teacher efficacy, family engagement, and administrative support, we can move the needle toward ensuring students' success today and tomorrow and in the years to come. The love, drive, passion, and commitment of our staff, students, and families are evident strengths of our school community. Building upon these partnerships through shared ownership, we believe we can catalyze our students' growth and success collaboratively.
As we walk through the halls and visit classrooms, the energy is contagious and the excitement spills over into bright smiles and bubbly greetings. We are humbled to be a part of something so much greater than ourselves. The Lawrence community is a tightly knit family dedicated to expert teaching, expert learning, and educational equity. Be on the lookout for even greater things to come. Most of all, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful children with us!
Monica, Maisha, & Peter
Hello Lawrence Families!
It was such a joy to greet your children as they walked through the front doors and into the school on September 6th. As they marched bravely into a new school year, with new teachers, new peers, and new routines, our hearts went out to them for we too have experienced the same anticipation around starting the school year. We feel so grateful to be here at Lawrence, where staff and families have been so welcoming to the three of us.
It's been a wonderful beginning to the school year. Over the course of the first couple of weeks, we've seen your students participate in creating their classroom communities. They've written their names and drawn self-portraits, created bar graphs of their birthdays, and developed systems for organizing their work in each subject. We have particularly enjoyed sitting in on opening and closing meetings, where students greet each other and review the days plans, then reflect on the day at the end. During an all-fourth-grade assembly, one student gave another a shout-out for "being kind to everyone." Another mentioned that one of their peers accepted the rules for a game without complaining even a bit. These are just snippets of the type of community building that we've seen across the school.
At the same time, academic work is well underway. In science, we've seen students create to-scale models of the solar system and draw detailed scientific diagrams. A middle school French class filled in the words of a popular French song while elementary school students singing in Spanish can be heard throughout the school building. Students have reinvigorated their reading lives by choosing just right books and recommending books to their classmates. In math, we observed students sharing multiple strategies for finding the area of a parallelogram. Finally, classrooms discussed the news of the week, including the science and possible effects of Hurricane Florence. We can already see that students will be engaged in both academic learning and the wider world around them through their experiences at Lawrence this year.
Thank you again for your support at the beginning of this school year, and we look forward to sharing more happenings at our school as the year goes along.

Allen, David J.. 1995. An annotated list of diseases, pathogens and associated fungi of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) in Eastern and Southern Africa . CAB International; Cali, CO: Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT), Wallingford, GB. 42 p. (Phytopathological paper no. 34)

This list brings together many widely scattered unpublished records, from the International Mycological Institute, from the Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical, and from field surveys, conducted during recent collaborative research between CIAT and Horticulture Research International, Wellesbourne, and the Institute for Biochemistry and Plant Virology, Braunschweig. The literature survey has been extensive but probably not exhaustive : both recent and old checklists of published information have been scanned to provide an historical perspective to the presence of pathogens within a given territory. The list is confined to pathogens and diseases recorded on the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in 20 countries of eastern, central and southern Africa and its off-shore islands. Information is given on their prevalence and pathogenic variability, with a comprehensive bibliography of more than 150 references. The list should prove valuable to plant pathologists, bean scientists, plant quarantine officers and research directors concerned with crop improvement and the international exchange of genetic resources.

Some people might argue that a recipe for oysters is completely unnecessary. "Shuck and slurp" should be the only instruction needed. But there's another camp of folks that enjoy adding other flavors to that salty sea bite.
Now chefs from some of California's most creative oyster bars, including Charlie Parker from Flea St. Cafe and The Oysterette, are sharing how-tos. From a simple squeeze of lemon to a dill-flecked Mignonettes or a Sauce Gribiche, there's a way to bring everyone to the oyster bar at home. Just don't forget the shucking knife.
Horseradish Lemon Dill Mignonette
Makes about ¼ cup, enough to top 2 dozen oysters
3 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish root
1 Meyer lemon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
2 teaspoons olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
Place the horseradish in a small bowl. Zest the lemon into the grated horseradish. Add ¼ cup fresh lemon juice. Stir in the chopped dill, olive oil and salt. Spoon onto freshly shucked oysters and serve.
— Karla DeLong, Bauman College, Berkeley
Filipino-Influenced Mignonette
Makes about ¼ cup, enough to top 2 dozen oysters
¼ cup coconut vinegar
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
½ teaspoon Burn powder (dehydrated probiotic chile powder) or paprika
Mix ingredients in a small bowl. Spoon onto freshly shucked oysters and serve.
— Chef Otto Markel, American Abalone Farm, Davenport
Spicy Baked Oysters
Makes about 2 cups chipotle butter
24 medium, plump oysters
1 tablespoon neutral oil
1 small yellow onion, cut in half and sliced
½ cup (4 ounces) canned chipotles in adobo
8 ounces (½ pound) European-style butter, such as Anchor brand, softened
½ teaspoon sea salt, such as Maldon
1 lemon, cut into wedges
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Shuck and drain the oysters.
- Heat the oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until caramelized and slightly charred, 5 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
- Place the cooled onions in the bowl of a food processor. Add the chipotles (reserve the adobo sauce for another use) and blend until fully combined. Add the softened butter and run the processor for a minute, until the butter incorporates with the chipotles and onions. Add the salt and pulse to combine.
- Arrange oysters on a large baking sheet and top each with ½ teaspoon of chipotle butter. (Refrigerate leftover butter for another use.) Roast for 5 to 10 minutes or until caramelized. (Or broil on high for 3 to 5 minutes.) Serve with lemon wedges.
— Chef Dominique Crisp, L&E Oyster Bar, Los Angeles
Fried Oysters with Sauce Gribiche and Pickles
Makes 12
2 large green tomatoes, cut into ¼-inch cubes, or 6 stalks celery, sliced ½-inch thick on the bias
1 cup champagne vinegar
½ cup water
¼ cup sugar
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon chile pepper flakes
1 bay leaf
Sauce Gribiche:
2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon chopped tarragon
1 small shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Black pepper, salt to taste
Salt to taste.
12 medium, plump oysters
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup buttermilk
2 cups cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
1 tablespoon salt
Neutral oil, for frying
Fresh dill, garnish
- Place the tomatoes or celery in a quart-sized mason jar. Combine all the remaining ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the tomatoes or celery and let cool slightly. Refrigerate uncovered overnight.
- Chop and mix together all the gribiche ingredients. Season to taste.
- Shuck and drain the oysters.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and buttermilk together. Add the oysters and let them oysters marinate for at least 10 minutes. In another bowl, mix the dry ingredients.
- Heat the oil to 375 degrees. Coat the oysters in the cornmeal breading and fry until golden. Drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
- To serve, place a spoonful of gribiche on each small plate , with a fried oyster on top. Garnish with the pickle and some fresh dill.
— Chef Charlie Parker, Flea St. Cafe and The Oysterette, Menlo Park

Here I am staring at a monitor, looking very much like the television producer I am.
Born and raised in Baltimore, I grew up on the absurdist comedy of local legend John Waters. In high school, I scored an internship at the Maryland Film Office and ran around photographing locations for feature films. Naturally, this led to a brief stint operating alien puppets made out of industrial trash bags on the set of Species 2, which you may know as the sequel to Species 1. I also delivered pizza to the set of Jodie Foster's Home for the Holidays, thus I feel I can take full credit for that film's massive commercial success.
As a Film Studies major at Yale University, I coerced my gracious roommates into starring in horrible student movies and spent my junior year in Prague studying at FAMU, the film school alma mater of all the famous Czech New Wave directors. I wore track pants and smoked clove cigarettes and went jogging with my Walkman blasting The Smiths, so I was really deep and really thinking about things on another level just trust me.
Senior year, I got the opportunity to complete my thesis project under the tutelage of renowned filmmaker D A Pennebaker. By now a budding documentarian, obviously I headed out to make a groundbreaking film about the homeless population. After exactly one hour of trying to find interview subjects, I gave up. Encouraged by my mentor to "Go with what really interests you," I instead made a documentary about myself, complete with a scene in my bra and underwear where I stared into the camera, silently. I won an award for that film and felt totally validated. With the exception of my husband, no one has ever seen it again and no one ever will.
Post college I moved to LA, where I flunked several job interviews on account of a deadly combination of pretension and naivete. After a brief stint in casting at Columbia TriStar Televison (Dawson's Creek, King of Queens, Family Law), I landed in the mail room at United Talent Agency. As an assistant in the Motion Picture Talent department, here are some of the most important things I did: serve my boss her lunch on a silver platter with a doily, procure Kabbalah water for dogs, obtain appraisals for a massive Birkin bag collection, and get Nelly's entourage into parties without Nelly.
When an opportunity to return to nonfiction presented itself, I seized it - joining the Lizard Trading Company as a development assistant. From there I transitioned into my first production role, and a career was born. Over the past thirteen years I've developed and produced unscripted television for ABC, NBC, FOX, NETFLIX, YOUTUBE RED, MTV, A&E, HISTORY, LIFETIME, NAT GEO, ANIMAL PLANET, GSN and more. I'm happy to be exploring and innovating in documentary television and doing my part to move the ball forward in this exciting space.
I'm a mother of three, a wife of one, and a die-hard Ravens fan. Outside of entertainment, my interests include food of every stripe, home goods, vintage cookbooks, precipitation, daydreaming, pilsner and family traditions. If you need me, you can almost always find me at CVS.

I wore this dress once as a bridesmaid. It is a stunning dress and in great condition. I ordered it in a size 4 but had to take it in on the sides slightly because I thought I was going to be wearing it strapless. This said, it is probably closer to a size 3 than a true size 4 in the bust area. The length was never altered! I have included details from the designer's website below.

The Wren Dress features a shirred strapless bodice with a sweetheart neckline for a universally flattering look. The A-line skirt features convertible panels that can be raised and manipulated to create alternate necklines and skirt details. A detachable tulle sash that can be used to tie around the waist to create definition and finish the look is included. The dress is fully lined, with a center back zipper.

Having decided to go home a few days early so that Cathy and I could go away for an extra-long Canada Day weekend, and with no good weather where I wanted to stop, I was home in Whitehorse 23 hours after leaving Stewart. The route is simply up Highway 37A (the Glacier Highway), then the Stewart-Cassiar, then the Alaska Highway.
I pulled away from the Bear River RV Park right after breakfast and a short walk, at 07:45 on Day 61 of the trip, June 25th. Home was 1,026 km away. Click on the map to open an interactive version in a new window.
There are places where the bed of the Bear River appears to be a few inches above the level of the highway. The rock in the foreground was put there a couple of years ago to stop erosion when an overflow channel moved too close to the highway.
I was confident that I'd have the highway to myself for at least a couple of hours, so just stopped on the road to get photos of a couple of the best waterfalls along the Glacier Highway.
Low cloud and fog rising off the Bear River may have made the peaks vanish, but was still pretty interesting visually.
At Km 40, the skies started to clear as I passed the Bear Glacier.
At 10:08, we reached the Km 265 post of the Stewart-Cassiar Highway, which is 106 km north of Meziadin Junction where the Glacier Highway meets it.
Along Eddontenajon Lake south of the community of Iskut at about Km 396, at 11:45. Rain showers were frequent enough to keep most of the bugs washed off the windshields, so I didn't even need to stop to do that.
Dropping down from Gnat Pass to Dease Lake at Km 475. I've overnighted a couple of times at a pullout at Lower Gnat Lake, a particularly scenic spot on the Stewart-Cassiar Highway, just above the treeline. This time, I just stopped to take Bella and Tucker for a walk. My GPS said that I'd be home at 9:36 pm, so I was fairly sure that I'd push through.
I had a long fuel stop at Dease Lake, Km 488 – it was very busy. But while there, I had a long chat with a couple from Atlanta with a big motorhome towing a Jeep and dirt bike. They had just spent a few days in Whitehorse and couldn't say enough about how much they loved it. That's always nice to hear, and we do hear that sort of comment a lot from travellers.
I noted as I drove along Dease Lake that the Sawmill Point Recreation Area would be a good place to launch a kayak on a nice day to paddle over for a look at the ghost town of Laketon.
A scenic stretch of mountains at about Km 580.
Km 620, 6 k south of the small community of Good Hope Lake, at 4:20. A minute after taking the next photo, I was surprised to see a sheep alongside the highway.
We stopped for dinner at the large Beaver Dam rest area at Km 649. Large fires burned through here in 2010 and again in 2012.
Heading west on the Alaska Highway at 6:05, I felt like we were almost home, but some of the storms were pretty wild and I was geting tired.
At 7:10, I decided that the site of the long-vanished Message Post Lodge at Km 1111 would be a good place to spend the night. Bella and Tucker played and played and played in the large paved parking lot!
It's a lovely piece of property between two small lakes, but there's only wreckage left now. It closed just before I started driving bus on the Alaska Highway in 1990.
After 8:00 pm and Tucker wasn't quite finished playing ball yet. But we were in bed shortly after that. I planned on a very early start so that we could see Cathy before she left for work the next morning.
We were back on the road just after 03:30 on Day 62 of the trip, June 26th. I shot this right at 04:00 – back in The Land of the Midnight Sun.
I pulled into our driveway right at 07:00. Our awesome Adventure was over!
As I did after our 56-day Grand Adventure last year, I'll be posting a summary of the costs and experiences next.

Santa Rosa National Park
Santa Rosa National Park is located just above the Nicoya Peninsula on the Northwest portion of the country and it protects over 60,000 hectares of Tropical Dry Forest. This park is adjacent to Guanacaste National Park which creates an important biological corridor into the mountains of the Guanacaste Mountain Range.
Another important reason for the creation of Santa Rosa N.P. is to be the site for La Casona, a historical building where the battle of 1856 was held, here the Costa Ricans kicked out a mercenary army led by the American William Walker who had already taken possession of Nicaragua.
To get to Santa Rosa National Park you travel North on the Panamerican Highway, the right turn to to reach the park is 33 km past Liberia. Ideally you could stay in Liberia if you want to visit the Park early enough to get good bird activity and wildlife in general or drive from Rincon de La Vieja Volcano area which will add a few more minutes on the road.
In the dry season starting in December this area is hit by strong winds that make across the low Guancaste Mountain Range, which can make birding a little more difficult, however some good evergreen patches can be excellent refuge for birds as it is also in this time when most trees here lose their leaves.
The road that leads into the park is good for Double-striped Thick-Knee, Thicket Tinamou, and Crested Bobwhite, and a greener patch of forest before you reach the site of La Casona can produce interesting birds like Long-tailed Manakin, Stub-tailed Spadebill, Ruddy Woodcreeper, Olivaceous Woodcreeper, and Rufous-and-White Wren.
Some Specialty birds for Santa Rosa National Park are:
Thicket Tinamou
Great Curassow
Crested Bobwhite
White-tailed Hawk
Double-striped Thick-Knee
Yellow-naped Parrot
Pacific Screech-Owl
Plain-capped Starthroat
Elegant Trogon
Black-headed Trogon
Ivory-billed Woodcreeper
Stub-tailed Spadebill
Long-tailed Manakin
White-throated Magpie-Jay
Rufous-and-White Wren
Banded Wren
