Medallion McKnight Investment Class Action
McGuigan Nelson has commenced a lawsuit on behalf of a subset of investors who suffered a loss in the Medallion McKnight investment project. This page contains information about the class action, frequently asked questions, and updates on how the class action is proceeding.
Check back frequently for updates.
UPDATE – the Representative Plaintiff has just received an Order requiring Certified's prior counsel to produce certain documents pertaining to instruction received regarding the investments of the Class. This is a significant Order.
1. What is this class action about?
In 2006 – 2010, investors provided funds by way of Loan Agreements to Certified Financial Savings & Mortgage Corp. ("Certified") to fund the development and construction of a commercial base and two residential towers on property located on Edmonton Trail, in Calgary, Alberta. Investors were supposed to have their investment protected by a mortgage on the property, placed by Certified, and in a second priority position on title to the property.
Multiple investors did not, in fact, have their investment protected by a mortgage. When this error was discovered, in or around October 2010, Certified took steps to register another mortgage on title to the property to protect these investors' interests. However, at this point, intervening mortgages had been put on title and these investors were in a last priority position, ahead of multiple other mortgages.
The property subsequently went into foreclosure and was sold in May 2012. The court made a determination that the investors who were not protected by the first mortgage, but instead only protected by the second mortgage, were subordinate to all other mortgages. There were insufficient funds to pay out these investors, and their investment was lost as a result.
2. Who is a class member?
Class Members are those who invested in the "Medallion McKnight" project by way of loaned funds with Certified, and whose investments were only secured by the second mortgage (and fourth in priority) placed by Certified on title to the property, and who received no payment out of the foreclosure process.
3. I invested in the Medallion McKnight project but I received a partial payment out of the foreclosure process in 2012. Am I a class member?
If you only had a single loan and a partial payment of your investment out of the foreclosure process in 2012, you are not a class member, as your interest was secured by the first mortgage placed by Certified. Only those investors who received no payment out of the foreclosure process are class members, as they were in a fourth priority position.
Some investors may be in the situation where they had multiple loans at different dates, where some of their loans were covered by the first mortgage (and were partially paid out) while other loans were secured by the second mortgage, and were not paid out. In this case, if you were an investor that had some of your loans partially paid out upon foreclosure, but other loans were never paid out, then you are a class member, but your potential recovery will only be based on the amount invested in the loan that was not paid out.
4. What are the allegations?
We have alleged that Certified and their legal counsel, Phillip Fiess, failed to secure class members' investment by ensuring their investment was secured by the first mortgage placed on title by Certified. As a result, when the property went into foreclosure, the class members were unable to share in the proceeds of sale with the investors who were protected.
The allegations are set out in greater detail in the Amended Statement of Claim, found to the immediate right of this page.
5. I am a class member. Now what?
As of February 9th, 2016, we were certified as a class proceeding by the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta. This means that the court has determined that a class proceeding is the best way to hear this matter, where all the investors' claims can be addressed in a single lawsuit. It is not a decision on the merits, but it is an important step that all class proceedings must go through to show that there are sufficient common issues that all the claims can be tried once.
If you are a class member as previously explained, then you will be automatically included in the lawsuit unless you specifically choose to Opt-Out. However, we request that investors send us an Investor Participation Form so we have your current contact information and can reach you for updates. You are not required to give us an Investor Participation Form to be a part of the class proceeding; this is simply to assist us in keeping records of investors. A Notice of Certification will be sent to investors at their last known e-mail address. A copy of the Notice of Certification and the Investor Participation Form can be found to the immediate right of this page.
Please provide us with your investor participation forms via mail, fax, or e-mail at email@example.com.
6. How will I be notified?
Class members will be notified in accordance with the Certification Order, which can be found on this page. The Certification Order requires us to send a Notice of Certification, which will be sent electronically and via mail to the class members' last known e-mail address and mail address. The Notice of Certification can also be downloaded at the immediate right of this page.
Again, investors are automatically included unless they send us an Opt-Out form. We are nevertheless asking investors to send us an Investor Participation Form if they intend to be part of the class proceeding, as this will help us keep our information current and get in contact with you.
If you have not been contacted via mail or e-mail we encourage you to send us an e-mail at email@example.com, as your contact information we have on file may not be up to date.
7. I have questions. Who should I contact?
We cannot respond to individual e-mails or phone calls due to the amount of time and number of investors. If there are questions, we ask that you send them via e-mail to email@example.com. Periodically we will update our website to respond to the questions that investors ask us.
We encourage investors to carefully look through the documents posted on this page as well as the FAQ, as the answers to your questions are likely contained within those documents.
8. I do not want to be part of the class action. What do I do?
You have until February 28th, 2016 to opt out of the class proceeding. If you do not opt out, you are automatically included. If you do opt out, you are no longer a member of the class proceeding. You may bring your own separate lawsuit. However, if there is a settlement or we are successful at trial, you will not share in the settlement proceeds. The Opt-Out form is found to the immediate right of this page.
9. What is the next step in the lawsuit?
Now that we have been certified by the Court of Queen's Bench, we will be moving forward towards trial. This will involve questioning witnesses, exchanging all relevant records, and setting trial dates.

|Some Classroom Strategies
|Developing Critical Literacy Awareness
|by Chitra Varaprasad
Definition of critical reading
|Harris and Hodges (1981) define critical reading as the process of making judgments in reading: "evaluating relevancy and adequacy of what is read." According to Thistlethwaite (1990:587) "in critical reading, readers evaluate what they have read and make a decision. This decision may be to accept what the writer has said, to disagree with it or to realise that additional information is necessary before an informed judgment can be made."
|This paper will look at texts from two angles, that of content and language. The following two questions will be addressed:
|Different types of tasks can be designed for developing critical reading strategies among students in the context of the three stages in the reading process: the pre-reading stage, the while-reading stage, and finally the post-reading stage.
|Strategies for the pre-reading stage: In conventional pre-reading activities, students are asked to do the following:
|In critical pre-reading activities, students can be asked to consider:
|Students at this stage can be asked to read and react to content and language in a text by annotating and analysing .
|Annotating: The strategy of annotating is essential to critical reading because it focuses the reader's attention on the content and language of the text. As students read, they can be asked to annotate directly on the text. Three useful ways of annotating are underlining, questioning, and outlining .
|Underlining: As a first step, ask students to read through the passage and underline difficult words and phrases, while getting a general idea of the whole passage. Next, ask them to figure out the meanings of these words and phrases from context, and if necessary, look them up in a dictionary or another relevant book, encyclopedia, etc. The answers can be discussed as a group with constant input from the teacher.
|Questioning: Questions are the most notable aspect of the annotations. Next, we could get our students to read the text again and express their doubts in the form of questions in the margin. Initially, questions would reflect students' lack of knowledge as these questions would identify information that is needed. They may even represent doubts, confusion, or comments.
|Outlining: Outlining helps to focus on the most important ideas of a text, separating what is central from what is peripheral. Outlining also shows how information is organised and supported in a text. Like the other activities, outlining can be done as a group activity. Ask students to identify the main ideas in each paragraph and look for sentences that carry the main thrust of the arguments. For this purpose, remind students that:
|Analysing: Having ascertained the main thrust of the writer's arguments from outlining, the students next have to be guided to analyse arguments and language.
|In addition to identifying the main argument or idea in each paragraph, students can be given a checklist of questions that they can bear in mind while reading texts to evaluate arguments such as the following:
|A critical reader seriously thinks about what s/he is reading. This means that s/he:
|So a very important critical reading skill is to be able to distinguish fact from opinion. This is an essential first step in acquiring critical reading ability.
|Language: One way of analysing language is to look for patterns or repetitions of any kind such as:
|Thus, central to the idea of critical reading is an awareness of the role that language plays in conveying, not just a propositional message, but an ideological one as well. The analysis of language can be very useful for ascertaining the writer's ideology.
|Students can also be made aware of the following:
Strategies for the post-reading stage
|The logical strategy to use at the post-reading stage is to extend the understanding obtained from texts at the pre-reading and while-reading stages into writing tasks, such as summarising, evaluating, synthesizing, commenting, and reflecting.

Empowering your students to create social media content can have huge benefits for the students themselves.
The trick is the technology that allows all students to safely contribute items to the school social media 'que' so that you and other staff members can easily approve.
(To be clear, no student should EVER have password access to a school's social media account.)
First, by opening this up to all students we are creating a huge web of inclusion. All students, even the shy and reclusive, will have an equal chance to submit content from their point of view.
Some students will immediately feel a stronger attachment to the school knowing they helped promote it on the school's account. It doesn't take much more than that to improve student attendance, behavior and participation.
- This content can help inform everyone from other students to parents about the classes and activities available to them in school.
- These posts could help drive awareness and even attendance at theater and music events.
- Students can showcase the posts in college applications and job resumes.
- They could even submit content to the que as apart of a class 'exit ticket' or other assignment.
There are tremendous benefits to the students in allowing all students the chance to fill up your content drafts.
And after all of those student benefits, you are left with more content from the eyes of those with the best viewpoint in school: that of the students.

On 6 October, NATO's Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg reported Russian ground troops within Syria. Stoltenberg confirmed a second incursion of Russian combat aircraft in Turkish airspace. Russia continues to increase its military support to al-Bassar Assad's regime. Russia's recent air strikes against Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, incursion of Turkish airspace, and ground troops in Syria are increasing tensions in the area.

A: Printing fashion umbrellas ,Digital printing and screen printing .Under the guaranteed quality and competitive price, we have good reputation and creditability in EU, UK, USA and South American market.
Q: What is digital printing umbrella ?
A:Digital printing refers to methods of printing from a digital-based image directly to a variety of mediaThis is a method of printing umbrellas Digitally and allows for panel printing using vibrant colours and patterns.

We are still learning new visual effects and ways to combine old and new technologies to create ever more visually stunning umbrellas for our clients.
Sublimation or heat transfer printing is the application of sublimation inks onto a surface using a heat press to provide the required combination of heat, time and pressure. This combination causes the inks to be converted from a solid to a gaseous state enabling them to penetrate the material so that a permanent, full colour image is formed. The colour penetrates the surface of the item so that the result is colourful, long lasting and resistant to scratching unlike some other printing methods that merely print onto the surface of the item.

This is a joke, right?
The interviewer seems all taken with the security. Jeez, get out and do a little research next time.
Switch actually let him drive his car up to the building. Security risk! One place in Virginia, USA, - Server Vault - has the Rambo wannabe guards, and everything he mentioned (plus metal detectors to even get to the man trap). But they don't even let guests drive onto the lot. Park outside, and walk in.
Heck, I can point to six datacenters run by Equinix, Savvis, ATT, Verizon within 5 miles of one another, who all have similar security and network access. Duh, big deal.
Shoot, if you are in Vegas, you missed out on the most secure datacenters around - those that the casinos use! Casinos have money, and have some of the most interesting IT shops around.

Bug fixesI've fixed a couple of stupid bugs in the path following of baddies, and also in some other display stuff which was just dumb.
I've also added some information to the opening screen to indicate whether you're using the accelerated euclid / curve modules (ie. cython) and also whether your system supports anti-aliasing (ie. looks pretty at all).
If your system can't do anti-aliasing I'm sorry, it's just not going to look as nice as my screenshots :-(

Arctic Temperatures!
Average January temperatures in the Arctic range from about -40 to 0°C (-40 to +32°F), and winter temperatures can drop below -50°C (-58°F) over large parts of the Arctic. Average July temperatures range from about -10 to +10 °C (14 to 50°F).
Sahara, our Arctic Hooded Seal, was used to having plenty of ice for cooling down on if the temperature got too hot, so a big thank you to Hubbard Ice Systems of Ipswich who have provided us with a Scotsman Ice Machine to allow us to produce up to ½ tonne of ice per day for our Arctic Seal, more than enough to keep Sahara´s flippers cool!

So this is something of a minor achievement for me but none the less I'm seeking advice and critique.
Compositionally I'm fairly happy with this shot but I've been playing with Photoshop CS3, which unfortunately doesn't recognize the raw data from my 5D mk II, so I've been importing JPEG files, Step 1 was finding that out and understanding what it all meant, Step 2 was to undertake some sharpening tutorials and apply them to the photo. Step 3 was to research framing/background techniques, and then apply them !
For me, a photoshop novice, this was quite time consuming and convoluted.
BUT I think I did it all.
Your opinions and advice most welcome

Whats Good Ya'll this Blog is to share with you guys yet another page of the endless book that is My Mental State. Its also being used to pay my respect to a man by the name of Lucky Dube.
Lucky Dube was a South African Reggae artist who made beautiful music for 25 years. He Recorded 22 Albums and on October 18th, 2007 his life was pointlessly taken by people trying to Hijack him. This incident occurred shortly after he had dropped his children off at a Family Members house. He tried to flee but was fatally wounded.
After hearing that he had been killed I caught Chills down my spine. The reason for the chills was because just a few days earlier I had been mesmerized by one of his songs on my way to school. My father has always been a huge fan of all types of Music, seeing as how reggae was one of his favorites Lucky Dube was a familiar name to me and so was his music. Needless to say I had heard the song before but for some odd reason that day it hit me as if I had never heard it. I literally played it all day from home to school (an hour and 35 minute trip), from school to work, from work to home. That was the only song played on my iPod that day. The Name of the song was "House of Exile" a song about a Freedom Fighter trying to spread his words of freedom to his people in the Ghetto. I found it very ironic that the same artist that I had been listening to was now dead just a few days later.
Mylez always tells me "There's no such things as coincidences" and I use to think there were but after giving it thought I agree with my brother and realize that everything really DOES happen for a reason. Maybe the reason for me being mesmerized by that song that fate full day was so that today, a few days shy of a year later I can write this blog (Which I didn't even have till about 2 months ago) and spread the word of a Mans music that people may not have known otherwise. Maybe I'M that Freedom Fighter he was singing about. Whatever the reason was I just found it crazy (for lack of a better word) and i'd like to pay my respects by saying "Thank You" for leaving this world a better place through your music.

Sweet smell of shopping success
New clothing store open downtown
This might be too much information, but for the last few years I've been on a quest to find an effective yet natural toxin-free deodorant. Let me tell you, it's been quite a challenge. There are plenty of natural and organic options out there, but very few that even remotely work. The good news is that I've done the less-than-pleasant work for you (apologies to my family and friends) and have discovered a great product made here in Fort Wayne. North Coast Organics is a joint venture by mother and son. Founder and creator Nathan Morin, the self-titled Deodorant King of Chicago (Bueller? Bueller?) and Ball State graduate, handles the business end from his office in Chicago while his mother Debbie manufactures the products in an industrial building on Berry Street. North Coast Organics is committed to personal care products that are certified organic, vegan and cruelty-free, made with 100 percent natural and edible ingredients. The packaging has a conscience, too. The plastic containers are recyclable, and labels are printed in vegan ink on 100 percent tree-free, fair-trade-certified paper. I fell head over heels for Death by Lavender (sounds like a lovely way to go), an "elite assassin" of odor. North Coast Organics offers three different deodorant options, as well as travel sizes, and has added body butters, bath crystals, lip balms, candles and massage oils to boot. The line can be found nationwide at various heath food shops, including Whole Foods in 10 states. I'm totally inspired by North Coast Organics' commitment to health and wellness for people and planet. Learn more about the brand by visiting www.northcoastorganics.net. Locally, you'll find North Coast Organics at 3 Rivers Co-op Natural Grocery, open 8 a.m.-9 p.m. Mon.-Sat. and 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Sun., 1612 Sherman Blvd. Call (260) 424-8812 or visit www.3riversfood.coop.
I make no secret of my love for downtown Fort Wayne. I feel that a vibrant and diverse urban core is the key to growth for not just Fort Wayne but for all of Northeastern Indiana. While the city has much to offer, we still lack a few things downtown, retail shops chief among them. So I get giddy when I see or am given a tip about a new business choosing to open there. The Urban Hippie is a small but packed shop of colorful bohemian women's clothing and accessories at really affordable prices. Started a few years ago by Tammy Snyder-Castleberry, The Urban Hippie was an online-only business, shipping clothing nationally. Snyder-Castleberry's friends kept pushing her to open her distribution center to the public and turn it into a brick-and-mortar shop. A few weeks ago she did just that – and Fort Wayne got a new downtown clothing store. Fun and flowing blouses and dresses are just what you need for summer in the city! The Urban Hippie is open 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Wed.-Sat., 729 Fulton St. To learn more, call (260) 410-8461 or visit www.theurbanhippie.biz.
I do my best to explore all corners of Fort Wayne (and beyond), but admittedly, I don't get up to the north-side neighborhoods as much as I'd like. Feeling ambitious and with some rare free time, I ventured toward Dupont Road to check out a few leads. After finding some gems I'll share in future columns, I spotted a restaurant out of the corner of my eye so, naturally, I broke for lunch. Black Canyon offers the north side of town a sophisticated yet casual place for lunch and dinner. The restaurant has a sleek yet cozy vibe, a roomy bar area and a fantastic outdoor patio, thanks to a giant brick fireplace that conceals the parking lot. Over different visits since my initial discovery, one of my favorites is the Steamed Bao Buns starter, a spongy Chinese street-style dumpling topped with sesame seeds and served with Hoisin and oyster sauce. The B&B Burger is half in-house ground chuck and ground bacon – such juicy goodness for us carnivores. The menu features steaks and seafood and serves up custom lunch specials through the week. In addition to the from-scratch New American cuisine, Black Canyon offers a nice selection of wine and bourbon and hosts half-off Martini Mondays and Craft Beer Sundays. So, see you on the patio this summer? Black Canyon is open 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Mon.-Thurs., 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Fri.-Sat. and 11 a.m.-9:30 p.m. Sun., 1509 W. Dupont Road. For additional information, call (260) 203-5900 or visit www.blackcanyonrestaurant.com.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.
Report of gunman at MIT a hoax; feds investigating
The FBI and U.S. Secret Service have confirmed that they are helping investigate a report of a gunman on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology campus last weekend that turned out to be a hoax.
The director of the Secret Service's Boston field office said Monday the agency's electronic crimes task force is involved because the tip is Internet related.
An FBI spokesman said the agency's contribution could range from offering access to federal databases to "larger measures."
The federal agencies are helping campus and Cambridge police.
An electronic message sent to Cambridge police Saturday morning indicated that a man dressed in body armor and carrying a rifle was in a main building on campus.
The tip was determined to be a hoax about three hours later.
Sex conviction overturned, man wants record erased
A Massachusetts man whose conviction was overturned in a day-care molestation case after he spent 21 years in prison is asking a court to wipe his record clean.
Bernard Baran was convicted in 1985 of molesting five children at the Pittsfield day-care center where he worked. Baran's conviction came during a national hysteria over child-care sex abuse cases.
Baran insisted he was innocent and was released in 2006 after a judge ruled that his trial lawyer was incompetent. Prosecutors decided not to re-try him.
State Attorney General Martha Coakley's office is opposing the move to erase his record, arguing in court documents that he didn't receive a judgment in his favor against the state in his erroneous conviction cases. Baran reached a settlement with the state, but the state denied liability.
Governor, tribe could soon sew up new casino compact
Gov. Deval Patrick says he is close to finalizing a new casino compact with the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe but plans to run it by federal officials before submitting it for final approval.
The governor is trying to avoid a repeat of last year's event, when an agreement he signed with the tribe was approved by the Legislature, only to be rejected later by the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs.
Patrick told reporters on Tuesday he hoped to complete negotiations with the Mashpee by the end of this week or early next week.
The tribe has proposed a $500 million resort casino in Taunton.
Discount bus service to NYC idled for safety inspections
Federal regulators have ordered a discount bus service operating between Boston and New York City's Chinatown to pull its entire fleet off the road for safety inspections.
Tuesday's announcement by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration comes after Massachusetts officials found serious problems with eight Fung Wah buses, including cracks in their frames.
The company had already agreed to take 21 buses off the road but the order removes all 28 from service for "thorough and detailed" inspections.
The order did not shut down the company and state officials said Fung Wah continues to operate after chartering other buses.
Fung Wah has a history of troubles, including a $31,000 fine for safety violations linked to a 2006 rollover that injured dozens of passengers.
NEWPORT, Vt.
Mistrial declared in case of daughter bitten by mother
A judge has declared a mistrial after jurors were unable to reach a verdict in the trial of a Vermont woman accused of biting her daughter during an argument.
Annie Croteau of Newport told jurors she bit her 15-year-old daughter, Sarah, on the arm in self-defense. She said her daughter grabbed her own arm so roughly she thought it would be broken.
But Sarah Croteau testified she was doing the dishes when her 57-year-old mother came up behind her, pinched her in the rear while grabbing a cellphone from her back pocket, and then bit her when she tried to defend herself.
The Caledonian-Record reports jurors in Orleans County were unable to reach a verdict last Friday
Proposal would legalize sale of raw milk from goats, cows
A state senator wants to make it legal to sell raw milk in Rhode Island.
Sen. Nicholas Kettle is calling for new health regulations that would permit the retail sale of raw milk from cows and goats. The product would have to carry a warning advising consumers about the health dangers of drinking unpasteurized milk.
Currently all cow milk sold in R.I. must be pasteurized to eliminate harmful bacteria. State law only allows the sale of raw goat milk to consumers with a doctor's prescription.

it's 116AM...naturally, I'm blogging!!!!:/
theo likes to stay up till abouttttt 1130PM. That's her bed time. Not before. Not after. 1130PM on the head;) Theo still wants mom and only mom during the hours of...well...ALL OF THEM - she's very much disliked by most of our babysitters (aka. mom...Pigg...family;). As much as you can dislike the cutest.baby.on.the.entire.planet!!!!;)
but most annoying of all...is Theo getting older. If you're interested in seeing my reaction to Theo being 6 months old...come on over at 116AM and you'll see me hunched over my computer, crying that ugly cry...eating a cookie:')
you have one baby and you think that's the hardest part and each baby after is just...another baby. But it's not. It's all hard in it's own way. But what I've found is that Jacob and I can do this. The other day he came up to me with an idea he had been thinking of, in regards to how we should prepare for the next baby - in case that baby hates sleep as much as Theo did those first 7 weeks...gahhhh. I can hardly speak of those 'dark days';).
what I like about this kid thing and this family thannnggg...is that you keep trying. Sometimes it's hard - like when your nephew tells you that your 2yr old son called him a "Fucking Butthole". OR sometimes it's hard cause you're just not getting any sleep or getting enough alone time with your spouse.
POINT: i'm just glad that during the day...while I'm raising them up
keeping them alive...Jacob's out there thinking of ways to make it better/easier/simpler/happier for us.
okayyyy so I kinda hijacked Theo's post with randomness...but she's 6 months old. She's doing a whole lot of nothing in her life at this point. No teeth. Still owns my boobs. Not quite crawling yet but moving around real good. Hasn't started solids. Sometimes she's a fucking butthole. And when she smiles or cuddles me or sleeps in my arms...well...that's the good stuff:)

Traineo.com recently contacted me about a special offer they're running until the end of the month. I checked it out, thought it looked pretty good and decided I'd pass on the info (with the hope that I do not look like a sell-out corporate whore, or if I do I at least look like a twenty-dollar whore and not an eight-dollar one).
Traineo is a web site that offers tracking tools and community support for weight loss. I use one of their widgets in my sidebar to track my weight loss, or lately more like my weight maintenance. (At least it's not a gain!) The TraineoPLUS service costs $59.99 a year and offers slightly more advanced tracking and daily e-mails that provide information and guidance along your weight loss journey. Here's a video that CEO Alasdair McLean-Foreman narrates in a cute accent explaining the features:
If you've been thinking of signing up for TraineoPLUS, if you do so by April 30th, 2010 and enter the coupon code "PASTA" at checkout, you'll receive a Garmin Forerunner 50 Watch after the 14-day trial period. That means you can't be sneaky by signing up and then quitting before you pay.(Note: I make a commission off any sale with that coupon code, so here's the part where you call me a corporate whore. WHORE!) You only get the watch, not the heart rate monitor, foot pod or ANT receiver. Without the accessories, the watch is nice little sports watch that features lap storage (100 laps or 7 hrs of data) and a lap storage interval timer. If you buy all the accessories, you'll also have the ability to track heart rate, speed, distance, and to upload that data to your computer. My friend Erin really loves her Garmin and listed it as one of her favorite buys in 2009.
I searched for Garmin Forerunner 50 on Amazon and it looks like buying the watch and all the accessories costs $200. The foot pod is about $100, the heart rate monitor is $35, and the ANT wireless connector is $37. So, take that information and do the math to figure out whether the Traineo offer saves you money. I think it depends on what accessories you'd like to use. If you've been thinking of signing up for TraineoPLUS, now is certainly a good time to do it.

A Lisburn principal has highlighted the diversity and inclusivity of the controlled schools sector in Northern Ireland.
Gillian Dunlop, Principal of Largymore Primary School, was commenting on Controlled Schools' Support Council (CSSC) research about the make-up of the controlled education sector.
Controlled schools are non-denominational and firmly set within an ethos embedded in Christian values. They are open to pupils of all faiths or none, and account for 558 or 48 per cent of all schools in Northern Ireland.
The council's research demonstrates the complexity and diversity of the sector.
Some of the key findings from the research include:
• the controlled sector has over 140,600 pupils
• over 8,500 teachers are employed in controlled schools
• the majority of nursery schools, primary schools and special schools in Northern Ireland are controlled
• 95% of all special schools belong to the controlled sector
• over a third of newcomer pupils attend controlled schools
• 31% of all controlled pupils are entitled to free school meals
• over 28,700 primary and post-primary pupils have special educational needs.
Stressing the importance of the research, Mrs Dunlop, a CSSC member, said: "We believe that this is the first time that such a detailed piece of work has been carried out that clearly demonstrates the size and complexity of the controlled education sector.
"The findings also seek to dispel many misconceptions about the controlled sector."
In terms of religion, key findings include:
• 66% of pupils are Protestant
• 10% of pupils are Catholic
• 5% of pupils are other Christian
• 1% of pupils are non-Christian
• 18% of pupils indicate no religion.
"The religious breakdown of individual controlled schools often reflects their community," Mrs Dunlop continued.
"For example, I know of some controlled schools that have an almost 50/50 religious balance and others that are over 90% Catholic. It is therefore misleading to describe the controlled schools as the 'Protestant sector'.
"Indeed, controlled schools have greater religious diversity in comparison to other education sectors and, interestingly, provide education for more pupils of no religion than any other sector."
CSSC, the advocacy body for the controlled sector, has been in operation for just one year, and has plans to use its research to tackle some of the challenges facing schools.
Mrs Dunlop concluded: "It is essential that we have evidence to underpin our programme of work going forward and this baseline assessment is the first part of that.
"It is already leading to a better understanding of what controlled schools are, the diversity within the sector and the challenges that face teachers and pupils alike, particularly given the lack of funding for education right across the board.
"CSSC is proud to be the first advocacy body for controlled schools. Our dedicated and experienced team of staff will provide member schools with the support they need to enable their schools, teachers and pupils to thrive."

The present study investigated the relationship between anxiety and memory updating in a sample of high- and low-trait-anxious preschoolers (HA and LA, respectively). Updating of spatial locations was assessed with the original (non-emotional) Odd-One-Out task (Alloway, 2007), and with a new emotional version. Simple detection and memory updating of visual information was tested using a modified version of an adult affective memory task (Perlstein, Elbert, & Stenger, 2002). The emotional stimuli in both tasks consisted of angry, happy and neutral facial expressions. Results indicated that in the spatial task, accuracy was related to children's age and IQ, but no anxiety-related differences were found. In the visual-search task, all children were faster in the detecting versus updating condition, and slower in detecting neutral, compared to emotional faces. The two anxiety groups had similar levels of accuracy, but HA children had overall slower reaction times. Compared to LA children, HA children were slower and less accurate in detecting and updating happy faces, but more accurate in responses to angry faces. Looking at within-group differences according to stimulus valence, LA children were less accurate in response to angry (relative to happy and neutral) faces, while HA children were less accurate in response to happy (relative to neutral) facial expressions. The results are placed in a developmental context and discussed within the framework of attentional control theory (Eysenck, Derakshan, Santos, & Calvo, 2007).

Sonoran Desert at the New Year - Organ Pipe
Camping and hiking over New Year's in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Reed's good friend, the irrepressible Fargo, came with us. We chickened out for a third night camping (Dec 30) because it was rainy with an expected low in the 30's didn't seem like much fun. We hiked South Mountain in Phoenix instead (see Reed and Fargo blaze trail to Hidden Valley gallery below). Spectacular desert, lush with saguaro, organ pipe, cholla, ocotillo, sun and stars. Here are photos of the sun setting for the last time in 2012 and rising for the first time in 2013 over the Sonoran desert; Mexico is in background of many photos. There are a lot of photos of cacti - can't help it, I love the desert.Read More

PUC staff says benefits of Maine investing in natural gas capacity unlikely to exceed costs
Bangor Daily News
A report issued Oct. 1 directs state regulators to move forward with caution when considering whether Maine electricity customers should help to pay for increasing natural gas pipeline capacity to the Northeast. If the Maine Public Utilities Commission assessed a new fee on ratepayers to buy up to $75 million in gas pipeline capacity per year, a report from PUC staff determined "it is unlikely that the benefits to Maine consumers will exceed the costs of pipeline capacity ... unless the cost of pipeline capacity is very low."

Maine utilities watchdog appeals rates approved for Bangor Gas
Bangor Daily News
The office of the state's utilities watchdog has asked Maine's top court to invalidate natural gas rates approved for Bangor Gas Co., seeking use of a different rate-setting method for residential customers and new ratemaking processes for industrial customers such as Verso Paper's Bucksport mill.

The market speaks — Maine (and New England) should listen
Conservation Law Foundation
The preliminary conclusions are in on Maine's proposed gambit to invest ratepayer money on natural gas pipeline expansion — it's not worth the risk. Those were the findings of the Maine Public Utilities Commission staff in its recommendations to the Commission that were issued recently. The staff report finds that the cost of using ratepayer money to subsidize investment in natural gas pipeline capacity is likely to outweigh any benefits from such unprecedented public funding.

Mill closure shows Maine needs a new economy
Bangor Daily News
We have seen yet another closure of a Maine industrial giant, as Verso Paper announced its Bucksport mill will cease operations Dec. 1. As is not uncommon in these situations, the announcement came with no warning to local, state or federal officials that 570 workers — or, at least, a large majority of them — were soon going to be out of a job. This has rekindled the always-ongoing discussion about the state of Maine's economy. However, much of that discussion is sadly superficial, seeking to place blame rather than find solutions.

Foster's Daily Democrat
For nearly 40 years, Sea-3 has safely provided 40 percent of all the propane used by schools, homes and businesses in New England. However, Sea-3's commitment to safety and to meeting customer demands for propane is being overshadowed by unfounded fears and inaccurate information about the propane railcars that will pass through the city of Portsmouth.

PUC staff warily backs funding gas expansion through electricity bills
Portland Press Herald
Maine electricity customers shouldn't be charged up to $75 million a year for contracts to secure new deliveries of natural gas through expanded pipelines, the staff of the Maine Public Utilities Commission said Oct. 1, because the potential benefits won't exceed the costs. Despite its skepticism, the staff recommended that the agency accept project proposals anyway, so the PUC and its consultants can evaluate potential benefits to determine whether they would be "sufficient."

Shorter approval pipeline, risky subsidies aren't the key to lower electricity prices

There is no doubt that Maine needs to continue to diversify its energy mix and that natural gas will play a large role in that effort. However, fast-tracking approval of pipelines, which could make it easier for gas companies to take private property, is a risky way to do this. Adding to the risk, the Maine Public Utilities Commission is currently considering charging all the state's electricity users a surcharge to build more natural gas infrastructure, much of it out of state.

The magical music combo is back yet again. Legendary director Mani Ratnam and musical wizard AR Rahman have been busy with the song compositions for Mani's soon to be launched romantic drama, which stars Karthi and Aditi Rao Hydari as the main leads.
Currently, Mani and Rahman are working closely with celebrated Tamil poet Vairamuthu to record the songs. Since the film is a love story, fans of this magical trio can surely expect yet another overwhelming music album. The film will go on floors soon after Karthi wraps up his next film, Kashmora.

On the one-year anniversary of Roger Ebert's death, his widow Chaz Ebert has reposted the last article he ever wrote to her blog, a "leave of presence" notice posted the day before he passed away. Ms. Ebert has also written a moving account of the last year of her life without her beloved.
Archives For in memoriam
Film audiences have lost perhaps their greatest champion. Roger Ebert died of cancer yesterday at the age of 70, days after announcing his "leave of presence" from his duties at the Chicago Sun-Times and his online enterprises because of the disease's unexpected return. I have no personal recollections of the man and can't say anything here about him that hasn't been said better elsewhere by his friends, family, and fellow film critics. There is a lot to say about the life of Roger Ebert, and it is being expressed eloquently today.
One of the best articles I had read recently about Ebert, his life, and his struggles with cancer was published in 2010 in Esquire magazine, and it is still remarkable for the stunning photograph of the mandible-less Ebert, living intelligence playing about his eyes. Ebert himself took issue with the writer's assertion that "Ebert is dying in increments, and he is aware of it," but Ebert also acknowledged the need for dramatic license in telling the story.
Rest in peace, Roger. Thank you for all you did to guide my appreciation of film over the years. I hope the last book you read was a good one.
LucasArts was closed by parent company Disney yesterday. Although the studio's output in recent years was somewhat sporadic and lacklustre, LucasArts' heyday in the 1990s easily qualifies it as one of the most influential game development studios of all time, with widely revered titles such as Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, Maniac Mansion. Loom, and the Monkey Island series to its credit. LucasArts also harnessed great industry talents such as Brian Moriarty, Ron Gilbert, and the legendary Tim Schafer.
My fondest memory of LucasArts games was the Jaleco-published Maniac Mansion for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It featured a lot more purple than the original DOS version and age-inappropriate content was removed or changed, even though the hardest working hamster in video gaming got no salvation at the hands of Nintendo's kid-friendly nonviolence standards. Razor's theme, however, is still one of the most rocking five-channel compositions I've ever heard.
Rest in peace, LucasArts. Your legacy lives on.

Chillpak Hollywood Hour #457
This week's show starts with "Celebrity Deaths" as a Supreme Court Justice and a legendary explorer of both inner and outer space are remembered. Then, the return of The Lone Gunmen in episode 5 of The X-Files revival is previewed. And then, it is safe to assume that more independent films are discussed than on any prior episode of YOUR Chillpak Hollywood Hour! A special guest joins your friends in podcasting to file a report on the recent happenings at the Sundance Film Festival and Dean and Phil go through all the Film Independent Spirit Awards nominees and Phil completes his ballot for these indie film "Oscars" on the air.
Chillpak Hollywood Hour #454
As you know, each year, your friends in podcasting celebrate what they think were the best films of the previous year. Well, this year, Dean Haglund and Phil Leirness welcome special guest, film critic and Los Angeles Film Critics Association member Luke Y. Thompson to help them as they discuss the best films AND the worst films of 2015!
Best and worst in one show?! Why, that sounds like two shows!
And it almost is. At almost 1 hour and 50 minutes, this is our longest show ever (if you don't count the 28 hour live "podcastathon" Dean and Phil did to ring in the end of the Mayan Calendar). So, get those Netflix queues handy, power up with the caffeinated beverage of your choice and let's begin …

Manufacturing turnover substantial higher
Manufacturing turnover was 11 percent higher in November 2006 than in the same month in 2005. Turnover has been higher than twelve months previously for more than two and a half years now. In the period January-November 2006 the increase was 9 percent compared with the same period a year earlier.
More than three-quarters of November's turnover increase can be attributed to improved sales. Higher selling prices account for one quarter.
Turnover was higher in all sectors of industry. The largest increase was observed in the metal industry where turnover was 20 percent higher. With a 9 percent increase, sales in wood, building materials and furniture industry and in food, beverages and tobacco industry rose considerably as well.
Turnover on the domestic market increased by 8 percent. Turnover on the foreign market increased by 13 percent. Metal exports recorded a 22 percent turnover increase. For the seventh month running, the turnover growth rate for metals and metal products on the foreign market was above the average growth rate for the entire Dutch manufacturing industry.

Very little is known about the anatomy and pathology of the optic nerve sheath (ONS) in normal and diseased states. The objective of our study is to explore microscopic changes in the ONS in patients with severe and/or progressive vision loss from IIH.
ONS specimens were obtained from patients with IIH after ONS fenestration (cases) and painful blind eye after enucleation (controls). Both procedures were performed by a single surgeon. A 2 x 1 mm ONS window was obtained, divided into 2 parts, fixed and stained per following protocol.Light Microscopy (LM): All specimens were formalin fixed, stained using Hematoxylin-Eosin and examined at 10x and 40x magnification.Transmission electron microscopy (TEM): All specimens were immediately fixed (in Operating room) using 4% paraformaldehyde and 3.5% glutaraldehyde on ice; washed in Cacodylate buffer; postfixed using Osmium tetroxide/buffer mixture; dehydrated through graded concentrations of ethanol washes; and resin embedded. Ultrathin sections were obtained, stained and examined in Philips Tecnai Biotwin 12 TEM at 2900X magnification.Polarization microscopy (PM): All specimens were stained using Picrosirius red and examined under polarization microscope using previously published methods. (Junqueira et al., 1979) Masked experts in LM, TEM and PM performed evaluations for specimen quality (desiccation, trauma and staining) and tissue anatomy (cellularity and collagen arrangement).
Of 13 subjects and 16 eyes enrolled, 7 specimens (6 cases and 1 control) met inclusion and quality control criteria for analysis. Tissue was not obtained in 4 eyes at surgery. 2 specimens were excluded due to alternative diagnosis (meningioma, panophthalmitis). 3 specimens were excluded due to tissue desiccation resulting from increased time interval from resection to tissue fixation.
Adequate quantity and quality ONS specimens were obtained in patients undergoing ONS fenestration and enucleation. Since ONS is susceptible to desiccation, tissue should be fixed immediately in the operating room.

Dear Sir/Madam, thanks for allocating your time to read my writing about my goal and plan in 2012 for preparing ASEAN Community
Starting from the spirit of ASEAN which was establish in 1967 to bring about a Southeast Asian Region of peace, freedom, and prosperity for its people, ASEAN community is a must taken action. It has three pillars: political-security community, economic community, and socio-cultural community. In this essay I want to focus on of the greatest potentials of Southeast Asia nations, that is tourism. Although tourism is such a simple thing, but it can accelerate the ASEAN community. What should be our plan and goal towards this issue as youth?
Our goal is to make ASEAN nations a wonderful tourism destination. Each nation in Southeast Asia has great potentials since it has great cultures, beautiful mother natures, and warm people. ASEAN nations should be one tourism destination that connected each country and provides any facilities for tourists visiting ASEAN, not merely a part of ASEAN.
Then, what are our plans to reach this goal?
First, ASEAN people, including the youth, should acknowledge tourism destinations in all ASEAN countries. Acknowledging the ASEAN potentials, especially in tourism, is a must. We can't take further action if we don't know about our own potentials.
Second, we have to build a strong network between ASEAN nations. This network is not only important for the government but also the youth. To build a good network we need a mutual understanding so that all programs established will run well.
Third, we will build a connected tourism destinations in ASEAN. This connection provides the tourists any information about tourism destinations in ASEAN and facilities to explore ASEAN. Even, we can offer a package of ASEAN tourism. We are no longer promoting our own country tourism but ASEAN tourism. It can be done by each of us.
Fourth, improving the infrastructures and facility in every country. Good infrastructures and facilities are very important in tourism. As a unity (ASEAN community) we should help each other to make any betterment. The more developed country should help the less developed ones.
Fifth, maintaining the tourism potentials (building, cultures, natures, and so on) well. It is the responsibility of each of us to keep those potentials to attract the tourists for all over the world.
Sixth, we have to improve English fluency. ASEAN community requires a global language to communicate each other. Moreover, as an ASEAN community we will interact will the world to promote and develop ASEAN. That's why English fluency is a must to prepare ASEAN community.
The development of the tourism sectors will also improve the political-security and economy security because those aspects are a unity. ASEAN tourism destination can be establish only if there is a good politic and economy condition.

The innovative and multi-functional Screenplay range of textiles recently celebrated 15 years.
February 1st, 2012
Designed by Suzanne Tick, KnollTextiles Screenplay is a multi-use upholstery and wallcovering collection with an innovative sheath-core polyester technology for the highest performance.
Made with woven vinyl fibres, Screenplay can be used for direct glue wallcovering, wrapped acoustical wall panel and furniture upholstery for indoors and out.
The range recently celebrated its 15th anniversary, and the success of its longevity is no secret. Excellent acoustic properties, high durability and ease of cleaning make the fabric functional and long-lasting.
Screenplay is designed to be bleach cleanable, highly durable, and now includes Microban antimicrobial product protection to ward off odour-causing bacteria, mould and mildew.
To celebrate the collection's 15th year, Tick has created a new geometric honeycomb weave called Improv, for those seeking more texture on a larger scale.
Tick takes a creative approach to textile design, using recycled refuse to create products that are as eco-friendly as they are innovative.
In a collection called Salvage, she created textiles made with recycled dry-cleaners' packaging. Her Matter collection uses dry cleaning debris, long hanger segments, cardboard tubes and plastic bags. Tick's creative repurposing of materials is greatly admired by Woven Image, who are themselves committed to being environmentally responsible.
See how Suzanne Tick created textiles from dry cleaning debris here.
KnollTextiles Screenplay is available through Woven Image.

| Spoiler Alert!
Warning! This page contains spoilers for the Emperor of Nihon-Ja.
Ran-Koshi is a largely natural fortress in northern Nihon-Ja, made of high mountains. It appears in The Emperor of Nihon-Ja, when Shigeru needs somewhere to weather out the winter, Ran-Koshi proved ideal as it was defensible and located in an ideal location. It was regarded as a fable by most.
Description Edit
It used to contain a fortress of wood protecting the entrance into the valley and a small "village" that could easily house an army, as it does in the Emperor of Nihon-Ja.
There is an exit and a watchpoint which looks out over the mountains and passage leading into the valley, both aren't easily accessible or found but in the book they are used to mount an attack against Arisaka's army by Will and his friends.The sides of the fort are natural massive cliffs that are impassable by any army.
The Kikori rebuild the main man-made fortress which protects the entrance into the valley before re-building the houses in the "village" located in the main part of the valley.
There was also a hidden path which led out of the fortress, for if the defenders had to retreat.
History Edit
Sometime in the past Ran-Koshi had been used by bandits of some sort but they had long since deserted the place. It is then used by Shigeru and his men when they are sheltering from Arisaka during the winter.

|Saxophobia - Sunday, May 6, 2017 2:30 p.m.
Saxophobia features the saxophone.
Join the Bakersfield Community Concert Association as we celebrate our 55th Anniversary Season. Single concert tickets are $35.
Saxophobia brings to the stage a rare and unique glimpse at some of the most unusual saxophones ever manufactured and the classic melodies that popularized this warmly embraced and versatile musical instrument. The show explores over a half century of jazz classics and recognizes the musical contributions of such artists as Stan Getz, Sidney Bechet, Charlie Parker, Paul Desmond, Gerry Mulligan, John Coltrane, Frankie Trambauer, Rudy Weideoft and others. Audiences will be introduced to over a dozen variations of Adolphe Sax's 1846 invention including a curved sopranino, plastic alto, straight tenor, connosax, slide sax, bass and even a rare 6 foot contrabass sax.
Back in the early 1920's, Vaudeville shows were the hot ticket. Saxophone virtuosos Rudy Weideoft and Adrian Rollini, along with famous saxophone ensembles such as the 6 Brown Brothers and the Schuester Sisters, were achieving great success and notoriety. The saxophone was the most well liked instrument and a popular choice for young, aspiring music students to play in school band. Then, in the late 20's, Vaudeville, and, ultimately, the saxophone fell out of favor. With the decline in saxophone sales, manufacturers such as Conn, Buescher, King, and Selmer were forced to come up with creative new designs to stimulate renewed interest in the saxophone. What they conjured up was quite extraordinary.
Some of the musical selections programmed in a typicalSaxophobia show include "Autumn Leaves,"All The Things You Are,"Take 5," "My Favorite Things," "Singing The Blues," "When You Wish Upon A Star," "Stompin At The Savoy," and "My Romance." Throw in a little "My Three Sons," "Tequila," "Pink Panther," and "Yakety Sax" just for fun and you've got an entertaining, rich and riveting history of the saxophone and the players who gave the sax its distinctive voice in jazz.
Like baseball and apple pie, jazz is an American icon. Over the past century, the saxophone has played an important role in the development of this indigenous art form. Hear popular jazz standards and whimsical novelty selections, see an impressive array of rare instruments, and absorb a bit of saxophone history. Saxophobia brings an extraordinary educational, historical and entertaining presentation of the saxophone.
Welcome to Harvey Auditorium
Saxophobia for a delightful Sunday afternoon of saxophone music.
