Fifty years ago this month, an unknown young writer from Alabama published her first novel. Today, Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, "To Kill a Mockingbird," still sells almost a million copies a year and remains one of the most beloved books in all of America's literary canon. Charles J. Shields, author of "Mockingbird: A Portrait of Harper Lee," the only biography of the writer, spoke with Monitor books editor Marjorie Kehe about Lee, her life, and her achievement. Here are some excerpts:
"To Kill a Mockingbird" seems to be closely drawn from actual events in Harper Lee's life. But is it an oversimplification to say that Atticus was her father?
No, it's an accurate statement. Her father was a great man in a small town. He was much respected, a partner in one of the largest law firms in the county, a director of the bank, a deacon at the local church, and twice elected to the state legislature, just like Atticus. Although he was more reserved than Atticus. No one could ever recall not seeing him in a three-piece suit, even when he golfed. And I have to say that he was a segregationist. People like him, whose parents had fought in the Civil War, as his had, genuinely believed that people were happier with "their own kind."
But there were transformative events in his life.
Oh, yes. By the time he was an elderly man, when "To Kill a Mockingbird" came out, he was involved in an effort to redistrict the state to see that blacks were better represented in Alabama.
What about the trial he was involved with as a young attorney?
Lee had been practicing law for only a few years. He was appointed by a judge to defend two black men who were accused of murdering a white man. Now, Lee had never had a criminal case before. But this was fairly typical of the time. This method of doing business in the courts was informally called "Negro Law," which means that you get a young, inexperienced white attorney to practice on some hapless black client. Some of those trials took as little as half an hour. [Note: The two men Lee defended were convicted and hanged. Lee never tried another criminal case.]
How key was that trial to the writing of "To Kill a Mockingbird"?
It was that trial and one that [Harper Lee] remembered from when she was very young [that she wrote about in "To Kill a Mockingbird"]. That trial gave her the impetus for redressing something that her father felt very bad about, which is that he had participated in a trial in which the decision was a foregone conclusion. Lee was made, against his will, a pawn in a much larger system. [Harper Lee] got her literal facts, however, from a case that happened right in Monroeville when she was a girl in the early 1930s. A black man was accused of raping a white woman. His trial lasted about six hours [longer than expected] because he had a pretty good alibi. He was at work at the brick factory and he didn't know the woman. [The convicted man] lost his mind in prison and was remanded to a local insane asylum.
Truman Capote was Harper Lee's next-door neighbor and closest childhood friend. Did he ever acknowledge himself as Dill in her novel?
Oh, yes. He wrote to Detective Dewey with whom he became friends in Kansas while working on "In Cold Blood" and said that Harper Lee, or Nelle [the name used by Harper's family and friends], "has a book coming out and you must get it. It has a character named Dill in it and that's me." He was very much in favor of anything that shone the spotlight on [himself].
Why did the longtime friendship between Lee and Capote eventually sour?
It was jealousy on Truman's side, disappointment on Nelle's side. Here was this next-door neighbor of his who never craved fortune or the spotlight and she wins the Pulitzer Prize. So it was jealousy on his side and disappointment on Nelle's because Truman drifted into a sea of drugs and alcohol and became an undependable friend.
Why didn't she succeed at producing another book?
I think that you write best when you are passionate about something, and that book was sort of a gift to her father. Her father was disappointed that she had dropped out of law school and gone to New York to be a bohemian. He really envisioned her helping build the Lee dynasty in [their hometown]. She wanted that book to work and she wanted her father to be a hero. And she achieved that. [Also] her support group fell away. And then I think alcohol got in the way.
You describe Lee as a boisterous, brave child. But she seems so retiring as an adult. Has she changed?
I think that Nelle Harper Lee is a very authentic person who has never looked over her shoulder for anyone's approval. From the time that she was a little girl she stood her ground on the playground and said her piece. This business about being retiring, I think that celebrity was a shock to her. When she became famous, she realized that she had really traded off her freedom and that was not really something that she was willing to give up.
Fifty years after its publication, "To Kill a Mockingbird" remains one of the most well-loved and influential books in American literature. What is the source of its power?
First of all, it's just a darned good story. There will always be a place on library shelves for books that have a wonderful fictional landscape that we all can enter into. I know people who read "To Kill a Mockingbird" annually as a treat to themselves because they want to go back to Maycomb. Then, secondly, it deals with one of the great challenges facing all humanity, which is getting along with people who are different from ourselves. The last reason the book is going to remain a classic is that it does what all great literature does: It reads you as you read it. It asks you what are your convictions, what do you stand for, could you do what Atticus did? You can't help but think to yourself, "What would I do if that were laid at my feet? Could I stand up and do the right thing?"
Harper Lee never wrote another book. How do you think she feels about her own career?
[Lee] is at heart a provincial woman from a small town who probably would not have written that book except for the fact that she went to New York and saw the great diversity of people there and how they lived with each other, how day in and day out almost all of them get along. I think that she's grateful that the scales fell from her eyes and that she found a story, a great story to tell, that was larger than even the one that she thought originated in her own small town. She wanted [to write] something about her dad, she wanted something about Monroeville, and what she ended up with was a statement about what it means to be human. And I think she's probably pretty grateful.

I saw the new 31 point talent trees, and I was all…ooooh! More bloggy material!
But nope. The Resto druid tree is messed up and will have to be revised so really, it's not even close to finalized as of yet.
My sentiments, exactly. Some other bloggers have been having fun hacking together their own versions of the talent trees, but I'll just leave it at this:
- I don't want flat boosts to stuff in my talents. I want abilities. I like talents like Efflorescence and Revitalize and Living Seed that ADD something SPECIAL to the spells they effect, not a "boosts power by x%."
- That said, I don't like: Blessing of the Grove, Nat Shapeshifter, Imp Rejuv, Emp Rejuv, Genesis, and Moonglow. They are just flat, "necessary" boosts or mana reductions to certain already-known spells. They are BORING. The only reasoning I can see for them is that they separate a "specced" healer from a feral or, to a lesser extent, moonkin; which I feel is redundant to gear and talented abilities. I was under the impression that they were removing all these sorts of talents :p
- If Natural Shapeshifter is going to be there, I'd rather it give me something more interesting than just a mana reduction. As it currently is, I'm more likely to put points in furor for the times I say "lol imma bear, rawr" and bash something during a trash pull.
- Yay for trained OoC.
- If you &%*# with my Nourish, I will be a sad panda-tree. There will be many frowny faces. Be warned. >:(
- Perseverance makes me face-palm. Not only is it flat, but also, in its current incarnation (the whole tree being subject to change), it's required for PvE specs (while it strikes me as a PvP-focused defense). It's also very flavorless, especially in comparison to Natural Perfection. If it added some kind of imp-barkskin flavor to it, it might be more interesting. It might be useful to bear tanks in PvE, but it's still pretty boring. I don't mind that spot providing some defense (maybe give bear tanks something to spec into resto for, in addition to pvp trees?), but it needs... more, so it doesn't feel like a waste of points.
- And finally, I wonder how much of this the devs already know and intend to change or improve upon, since they haven't looked at the druid 31-pt-tree in much detail. If they threw it at us to have us help develop it based on feedback, they are succeeding.
General Kae-Updates:
- My puppy is two weeks old as of yesterday. Squee.
- I found out last night that they took Barkskin off the GCD sometime in the distant past. /facepalm. /remacro.
- We saw P2 of heroic LK10 last night, and survived long enough to kill off two valkyr and a raging spirit. Quote of the night: "Yay, it didn't give Kae an aneurysm!"
EDIT: oh, and because Keeva demanded a stick figure in every post, here:
You even get a rattie, Keev! <3

It may be the Summer of Gaming here at Kotaku, but for many Brooklyn neighborhoods, the season's long, hot days mean just one thing: weeks of non-stop band shows. No, not Rock Band — real bands. Is there common ground?
Lingering sunlight and mild evening temperatures on weeknights make great excuses to drag happy hour till midnight - who needs sleep? On the weekends, practically the entire neighborhoods of Williamsburg, Bushwick and Greenpoint take to the streets for block parties, backyard barbecues, rooftop shows and packed loft parties held unglamorously without air conditioning. No matter where Brooklyn's denizens are getting their Summer on, one common thread ties it all together: music.
Hitting the neighborhood for sweltering, sun-drenched shows feels worlds away from indoor gaming time, and watching rock bands feels so different from playing band games that I decided to try an experiment in bringing the two worlds together. My plan? To grab one of the most celebrated party bands I know and force them to play Rock Band with me.
Can one of ChangeUp Mag's top contenders for "New York's Best Party Band" outdo me on the plastic guitar? Would they enjoy the game? And finally, we strive to answer the long-running question: is playing Rock Band anything like being in a real band?
I knew right away whom to consult for my experiment. Anyone who's attended one of local act GunFight!'s densely-packed, yet still-intimate, performances can see how they've earned their reputation. There's something infectious about the group's unmistakable blend of hard metallic rock with country-twang — "post-country," as it's been called — that transforms even the most heat-wilted and booze-dazed party crowds into rowdy, cheering dancers.
know when you're on a real good streak at Rock Band and the crowd's going wild? Yeah, it's like that. And just like group-play band games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero, GunFight!'s built its reputation on crowd-pleasing good times. Local experts Jezebel Music has called them "rootsy but fresh," and challenges "anyone who cares to think they can party harder than the four Bushwick boys."
Those four boys: frontman Drew Mintz, guitarist Bill Dvorak, bassist Anthony Aquilino (known to appear in his underwear on special occasions) and drummer Dominic Turi, himself a frequent rooftop party host, possessed a healthy dose of skepticism that there could be much common ground between music video games and, y'know, real bands.
But one sunny Summer Sunday evening, between an all-day waterfront show and a Lower East Side show by the shoegazey Quiet Loudly (bassist Aquilino's other project), I accomplished no mean feat: Herding all four of the famous GunFight! boys indoors for some Rock Band.
While Aquilino says his brother could "write the bible" on band games, he himself has only played a few times, and the rest of the band even less. But all of GunFight has some gaming love: Dvorak fondly recalls Metal Gear Solid, Aquilino played Final Fantasy games, and Mintz says he played innumerable hours of SimCity.
All the guys remember playing hours of Goldeneye with friends in the college dorms, and Mintz says he once saved up all of his coins in a green Crayola bank to get himself a Game Boy. He not only has plenty of memories of Monkey Island and other adventures, but says the game he's most looking forward to is Uncharted 2. Maybe there's some commonality between the band and the video game scene after all.
"This is kind of like our real practices," quipped Mintz warily, when I encountered my customary difficulty in trying to untangle the instrument wires and connect them all - and when guitarist Dvorak was a hair too sauced to realize he wasn't helping the effort by strumming the plastic guitar all over the menu screen.
My expectations for how the band would take to Rock Band were initially low, especially when the microphone kept disconnecting, preventing an experiment in how Mintz's signature howling vocals might translate to the game. As the Rock Band quartet lost Dvorak's attention in favor of the Persona 4 stuffed toy he found in my living room, I helpfully set all the other instruments to "easy' and hoped for the best.
Stunningly, after only a couple of songs, Aquilino and drummer Turi were playing like pros. "Will it mess up your article if I turn it up to hard?" Turi looked over his shoulder to ask, twirling the sticks.
Before long, the two were in sync to skyrocketing scores - yes, Turi was better on the drums in just a few minutes than I am after months of consistent, albeit casual practice. And Aquilino moved with the bass the same way he does with a real one. You should have seen their unison bonuses.
The band also seemed in good spirits, having enjoyed Rock Band far more than they expected to. And so was I — with no musical inclination of my own, playing Rock Band with GunFight! is about as close as I'll ever get to the guitar-god fantasy current band games thrive on promising. I still played fake-guitar better (of course), but the fun of Rock Band is about the group experience, not competition - and there, we began to uncover real layers of commonality between bands and band video games (aside from the fact that Aquilino likes to play both real and plastic instruments in his underwear).
During our session, I was able to find an unlikely parallel between the game we played and the music GunFight! Performs. I feel the same surge of joy as when I'm playing fake guitar well. The band tells me that the strong community vibe their music encourages has a lot to do with its country influences. "There's something very universal about country music," says Aquilino. "There's an appeal that speaks to us as Americans, since country music is really one of America's main contributions to music."
It's this universality that appeals to Mintz, too. The boys said that, being a less-technical musical form, country music is also more accessible. "People who weren't trained musicians taught themselves to play," he said. "It's kind of like a working class form of music that is just something that appeals to everybody who's ever been miserable at their day job."
A musical form with a low barrier to entry that people use to enjoy community and a sense of escape from the mundane world? Sounds a lot like Rock Band. I'm certainly not miserable at my day job, but like all gamers, I had to teach myself to play those music games – and aren't they credited with being less "technical" than more complex next-gen titles, thereby inviting new audiences in? The idea of "accessibility" is as essential to music's appeal as it is to games, I realized. While GunFight!'s lifestyle — band shows all weekend, parties all night — may seem like a world separate from my living room video game performances, it looks like we're drawn to our respective pastimes for similar reasons.
GunFight! couldn't agree, though, that the core experience of playing band games necessarily correlates to the act of playing music. But Aquilino conceded that the games offer some positives for music: "It puts music in the hands of people who might not ever think about playing otherwise," he suggested.
"The pictorial representation of music is not necessarily accurate to the way one would think when they're playing an instrument," added Mintz. "And when we play, it's a very physical process — I don't think you necessarily get that playing a video game."
But aren't I going to be a little better at guitar thanks to Guitar Hero and Rock Band than I would have otherwise been? "It's not even relevant," said Turi flatly. Having played with the fake instruments, the entire band agreed the skillset doesn't translate at all. We got more beer, and the drummer decided to console me for my lack of musicality by discovering my nail polish and painting my left foot pink and my right foot blue.
"I can't even make a power chord with that thing," complained Dvorak of the plastic guitar. "And I've never played a set where I hit the 'right' note and was then rewarded with so many cheers and points." Although among us Bill was the one by far who'd had the most to drink, he raised the most salient point – performing is a fluid, responsive thing, not something to be done "right" or "wrong," or "win" or "lose."
"You're missing the creative experience," Aquilino tells me. But when I told the band about the newly-announced feature that will allow bands like theirs to upload their own tracks to play and sell on the Rock Band Network, they seemed a little more interested. "That's really cool," he said. "That's probably adapting it more to further introduce people to the process of being in a band, that maybe would never pick up an instrument otherwise."
Overall, GunFight! had fun with Rock Band. And for this gamer? I love getting out into their world every weekend for the summer music season, and I wish more gamers would go out and try real music. The sun's been good for me. And the band seemed to enjoy their visit to "our" world of games – in fact, when Dvorak asserted he'd rather play Mortal Kombat than Rock Band, our visit devolved into a discussion on fighting game supremacy between MK and Street Fighter. They may not be pure gamers, but GunFight! understands that this is an important topic. Given that it was such a successful ambassadorship, I asked the guys if they'd consider having regular Rock Band parties.
"Only if it was naked," says Dvorak.
"You might want to cover your consoles in plastic," warned Turi.
"I just want them to bring back SimCity," said Mintz.
Said Dvorak, "That hasn't gone anywhere."

I don't think I'm riding in tomorrow (carpooling obligations, maybe), so just a heads up. Frankly, I didn't feel much like riding home this afternoon. It was a long and busy day and come five o'clock, I hardly felt up to changing into what were probably still damp bike clothes only to have to change/patch a tube and boot a tire (with my last dollar!) because, with my luck today, that probably wasn't going to work anyway. So, luckily, since I live in a place where the city leaders had the forethought/myopia to give the people a bikeshare system, which would allow me to get home (or kind of close-ish) via bicycle and not have to take a bus or train and catch germs from the hoi polloi. (Instead, I can inhale the exhaust from the hoi polloi's cars!) And likewise, I had the presence of mind/myopia to sign up for said bikeshare system and I have a neat little bikeshare key (in black, even, because I was one of the first 2k members) that grants me access to these bicycles.
When I got to the station, there were already two young ladies there with undocked bikes and 4 more bikes sitting in docks. Per usual, I loaded my bag first and adjusted the seat before undocking (clock is ticking once you undock). The girls set off, somewhere down Massachusetts, riding down the sidewalk. I put my key in the slot and nothing happened. This isn't what I expected, since normally the key unlocks the bike, changing the light on the station from yellow to green. I thought that maybe the slot was jammed, since the key seemed to kind of rub against the side in a way that it normally doesn't. Although, I can't say for sure since I've never really paid too much attention to the mechanics by which my key unlocks the bike, instead focusing on liberating the bike once the light tells me it's ok. Curious. Two young guys walked up the station and were looking on the side for the "pricing structure." They walked away without renting the bike. Another guy approached the station and undocked one of the bikes, making sure to roll up his pant legs prior. Um, do you know why people roll up their paint legs? These bikes have chain guards. It's wholly unnecessary. But whatever. I tried the other two bikes in the station with my key and nothing happened. WTF, CaBi?
I called the number and, as always, was greeted by a pleasant-sounding French Canadian bloke. He asked for my key number and I couldn't provide it because it has long since rubbed off the key. He then asked for my name and looked me up in the system. My membership was ok, so it wasn't that. Apparently, my key had been "demagnetized." So along with my broken Faberge eggs and damaged Gutenberg Bibles (insurance claim still pending), my bikeshare key was a casualty of yesterday's earthquake. Who knew?
He said he would send me a new key. I asked, I think, "so, what should I do until then?" It's amazing how quickly one adjusts to a world in which there is a bikeshare and can't really imagine the city without it, even if you're just a very casual and infrequent user like me. It hasn't even been a year. He said that I could use credit card and they'd reimburse me when the new key comes. We'll see.
So I set off, down Mass and up Mass a little. I passed the girls on CaBis and Mass and Cathedral and I quickly rode up behind some old dude on an expensive-looking racing bike with a cursivey W name that I couldn't really read. Down Wisconsin, which was bumpy and crowded and driven on by at least one total db in some kind of Audi supercar. I plodded down to 34th and then down 34th, mingling in with traffic on the parts that were too narrow to pass. The parking has been temporarily displaced on a couple of blocks where the bike lane has yet to be painted. I'm sure it's related to the streetcar track removal, but maybe I'll be surprised and they'll stripe the lane some more. I can dream, can't I?
Nice days mean open car windows and amongst other things, I heard some Kanye, some The Who, and some J Lo. Ambient radio noise is a side benefit of bike commuting. Overhearing the conversations of pedestrians is not one. Especially if one of them is holding a Georgetown Cupcake bag. No, I don't think you should "just run for it" across the street. Yes, it is "the busiest time of the rush hour."
I planned to dock on Lynn and walk to the bus. This worked. However, this was annoying:
There's no ramp to cross Lee Highway, so when I cross Fort Myer, I inadvertently rode myself into a crummy position to cross the street. Fix this?
Did you know Arlington has a protected two-way cycle track?
Sure it's only 30 feet, but eat it, DC! (I'm trying to display as much Arlington pride as I can muster prior to moving). This 'cycletrack' mostly helps CaBi users trying to get to Lynn.
Bus was there when I got there, so it was a pretty convenient ride home. I stopped at Glebe and picked up some beer at CVS (In Virginia, CVS carries beer, so another point for Arlington pride). I'm looking forward to being able to bikeshare from door to door (one of the new stations will be about a block and a half from our new place) and not have to take the bus, but I guess I'm looking forward even more to having tires that don't pick up flats so easily.

I would have liked to see a better install for the furnace and new thermostat - the new thermostat should have gone where the old one was, and even tho the new furnace was a tight fit, they didn't offer to come back and repair the case molding, or give me a discount on the damage done, and I believe they should have put a disconnect box on the outside of the home, to make it easier for any future repairs needed. Other than that, am very happy with the cooling and heating!"

|Oracle® Fusion Middleware Developer's Guide for Oracle IRM Server
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
Part Number E12326-03
|PDF · Mobi · ePub
The IRM web services typically returns user and group GUID values rather than user and group names. Rather than having to perform direct lookups of user and group names against the identity store, the Oracle IRM web services includes a user and group lookup mechanism. The web service method takes a list of GUID values (in the form of
AccountRef types) and returns the user or group name. The following code example shows the domain administrator user names being looked up with the
listAccountDetails web service operation.
DomainOperations domainOperations = new DomainOperationsService().getDomainOperations(); AccountRef[] accounts = domainOperations.listDomainAdministrators(domainReference); Account[] results = domainOperations.listAccountDetails(accounts); for(Account account : results) { System.out.println(account.getName() + " : " + account.getType()); }
To call this method the authenticated user must have the domain administrator, domain manager, inspector, or context manager roles in any domain.

Safety Update
Laser Institute and OSHA Renew Alliance
The Laser Institute of America (LIA) has renewed its alliance with the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), to continue providing its members with information to help prevent exposure to laser-beam and nonbeam hazards in industrial and medical workplaces. OSHA and LIA share information on laser regulations and standards, and the alliance recently has produced the Laser Safety Information Bulletin. LIA also recently released the new ANSI Z136.1 document, Safe Use of Lasers.
Auditing Service Helps Laser Users Stay Safe
The LIA also has created a new auditing service designed to help industrial laser users keep their facilities safe and OSHA-compliant. The Industrial Laser Safety Audit is based on the ANSI Z136.1 Safe Use of Lasers standard, and includes a review of training requirements, hazard analysis and nonbeam-hazards assessment.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — The space shuttle Endeavour will be capping off a storied career with one more mission this week before it retires.
Endeavour is NASA's youngest orbiter, built as a replacement for the shuttle Challenger, which was destroyed along with its crew in 1986.
The orbiter is scheduled to launch six astronauts into space on Monday (May 16) at 8:56 a.m. EDT (1256 GMT) from here at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. This final launch will deliver a particle detector called the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer to the International Space Station, along with a set of backup supplies to outfit the station. [Photos: Shuttle Endeavour's Final Mission]
After this final voyage, Endeavour will be retired to the California Science Museum in Los Angeles for public display.
Here's a by-the-numbers look at Endeavour's lasting legacy in space:
$1,800,000,000: The cost of space shuttle Endeavour in 1987 dollars when it was built to replace the space shuttle Challenger after the tragic 1986 launch failure that killed seven astronauts. While $1.8 billion may seem like a lot for a NASA shuttle, at the time it was roughly half the cost of earlier shuttles since NASA was able to use some spares to construct Endeavour.
116,372,930: The total miles Endeavour has traveled before launching on its last voyage. [Video: Endeavour's Final Mission]
750,000: The number of spectators who turned out in Florida to watch Endeavour's first launch attempt on April 29, 2011.
500,000: The number of spectators expected to turn out to Florida's Space Coast to watch Endeavour's final launch (the second attempt at liftoff) on May 16, 2011.
6,154: The number of entries in a national student contest to name the space shuttle Endeavour when it was built. The name Endeavour honors the 17th century sailing ship HMB Endeavour, which was captained by British seaman James Cook on a famous voyage of exploration in the South Pacific.
17,400: The speed at which Endeavour traveled (in miles per hour) to remain in orbit. It's about Mach 25, or five times the speed of a bullet.
4,423: The number of orbits Endeavour made of Earth before launching on its last mission.
1992: The year Endeavour lifted off on its first flight. The orbiter carried seven astronauts to space on the STS-49 mission to rescue and repair a broken communications satellite.
283: The total number of days Endeavour has spent in space, not counting the 16 days it will add during STS-134.
167: The number of crew members Endeavour has carried to orbit, not including the six astronauts slated to ride the shuttle on the STS-134 mission.
25: The number of missions Endeavour will have flown by the time it is retired.
12: The number of times Endeavour will have visited the International Space Station by the time it is retired. The shuttle's trips to the orbiting laboratory include the very first U.S. space station mission, the STS-88 flight in December 1998 that launched the first American space station module, Unity.
4: The number of space shuttles that NASA built before Endeavour. Its predecessors include Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, and Atlantis. [The Most Memorable Space Shuttle Missions]
3.5: The number of years it took NASA to build Endeavour. Construction on the orbiter began in September 1987, and completed in April 1991.
1: The number of times Endeavour has visited the Hubble Telescope in orbit. The shuttle was used to launch the first Hubble servicing mission, STS-61 in December 1993, which famously corrected the observatory's faulty optics.

UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN River Falls
The edTPA is a subject-specific teacher performance assessment completed during student teaching. The assessment focuses on a learning segment of 3-5 lessons in one class. Candidates submit artifacts (lesson plans, instructional materials, teaching videos, assessments, and sample student work) and written commentaries as evidence of teaching proficiency. Professional scorers rate candidate performance in planning, instruction, and assessment using rubrics in the edTPA handbook for that subject area. Tony Evers, State Superintendent explains edTPA Video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lD4KuGIHwo4)
The edTPA was developed by the Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning, and Equity (SCALE) in partnership with the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education (AACTE). It is modeled after the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards' assessments of accomplished veteran teachers and was developed with input from teacher and teacher educators across the country. Pearson Corporation scores the teacher candidate portfolios.
Teacher Candidates are required to videotape a learning segment and submit it with the edTPA. Video and other supporting materials will only be uploaded to a secure university network submission system. This system is accessible only by faculty, teacher candidates and Pearson Corporation.
More information can be found on the Pearson edTPA site (www.edtpa.com).
Candidates must have the ability to complete the edTPA. It is therefore essential that the placement give the candidate the opportunity to satisfy the requirements in the relevant edTPA handbook. The candidate must be able to: take sole responsibility for planning, instruction, and assessment of a particular class during the edTPA learning segment; make videorecordings as needed; and complete the edTPA within an acceptable timeframe.
Many educator preparation programs are shifting to a co-teaching model of student teaching, where the cooperating teacher and student teacher plan collaboratively and share teaching responsibilities. Co-teaching can take a variety of forms: one teaching while the other observes or assists students; one teaching while the other works with a small group needing extra support or challenge; both teaching as a team or in parallel at different stations; both taking turns with the teaching of particular classes, units, lessons, or activities; and so on. Co-teaching provides extensive modeling and feedback for the student teacher while boosting student learning and sustaining a high quality of instruction in the cooperating teacher's classes. Student teachers are still responsible for writing their own plans for instruction and may often teach on their own while the cooperating teacher attends to other duties. Student teachers will also need to take responsibility for planning, instructing, and assessing the class during the edTPA learning segment.
In the weeks leading up to the edTPA, the cooperating teacher can help the candidate get to know the students, build confidence as a teacher, and choose a class, topic, and focus students for the edTPA learning segment. During the learning segment (3-5 class days), the cooperating teacher should give the candidate full responsibility for planning, teaching, and assessing the class. In the week or two after the learning segment, the cooperating teacher should be aware that the candidate will need time to select videoclips, write commentaries, and submit the edTPA for scoring, in addition to normal teaching duties.
Appropriate supports are outlined in the document "Guidelines for Supporting Candidates" (http://my.ilstu.edu/~eostewa/ArtStudentTeachers/edTPA/GuidelinesforSupportFinal3.6.13.pdf)
The Pearson edTPA site (www.edtpa.com) is the official source of information for candidates and faculty. The AACTE edTPA site (edtpa.aacte.org) provides additional resources and an online community for edTPA Coordinators. Contact Dr. Stacy Furness the edTPA Coordinator for more information.

Holidays in Aldino - Redagno/Aldein - Radein
The enticing, far-flung villages of Aldino & Redagno, as well as the mountainous and family-friendly ski area Jochgrimm, are somewhat scattered throughout southern South Tyrol. A true highlight of any holiday in South Tyrol meanders between Aldino and Redagno: More than 700 m deep, the Bletterbach gorge provides penetrating views into Earth's history. From depths to great heights, hikers in the region can also ascend to the peak of the Weißhorn. A wealth of legends and traditions, such as the ceremonial cattle drive from the high-Alpine pastures in autumn or regional specialities like "Pitschn" and "Zirmertorte" cake, can be discovered on holiday.

Last night, a video supposedly showing a golden eagle swooping down to pluck a toddler from a Montreal park--it was unsuccessful, luckily--hit the internet. Great video! This morning, avian experts both amateur and professional began weighing in, saying the video was doctored, that the bird in question was not actually a golden eagle, that the bird's behavior is unusual and that, all in all, it's probably fake.
So, yes, perhaps a golden eagle didn't attempt to grab a Quebecois baby. But this whole thing reminded us that raptors--the larger family of birds of prey including eagles, hawks, vultures, and owls--are crazy strong and also sometimes crazy big. So let's take a look at the craziest, strongest, and biggest raptor that ever existed: the Haast's eagle of New Zealand.
The Haast's eagle is extinct now, and has been since, probably, around the year 1400, soon after the Maori first settled the South Island of New Zealand. (It has been reported as seen a few times since then, including once by "noted explorer" and generally reliable source Charles Edward Douglas, but, as you'll see, that's pretty unlikely.) The Haast's eagle was outrageously big and strong. Its wingspan was comparatively short, given its body size, at around nine feet long. I say "comparatively" because that's about as long as the longest wingspan of any extant raptor, including the golden eagle (which is huge) and the Steller's sea eagle (which is also huge).
The golden eagle, which is very common, has been known to hunt wolves and deer. It is a fearsome and formidable hunter. And it was about half the weight of a Haast's eagle, and nowhere near as powerful. The golden eagle hunts deer? Pretty impressive. The Haast's eagle hunted 12-foot-tall monster birds, striking at estimated speeds of 50 mph with the force of a cinder block dropped from an eight-story building. It didn't carry off prey, like that likely-fake Montreal golden eagle, but instead used its talons--the same size as a tiger's claws--to kill on the ground. One talon would grab the monster bird by the pelvis, and the other would deliver a crushing blow to the neck and head. The Haast's eagle's genus name is _Harpagornis_--a combination of Greek words meaning "grappling hook" and "bird." Yeah.
The monster birds the Haast's eagle preyed upon were called moa, huge ratites related to other big flightless birds like the ostrich and emu. Both the Haast's eagle and the moa evolved due to what's called "island gigantism," a phenomenon in which animals isolated from other, more diverse populations of animals end up a much larger size than they'd be on the mainland. New Zealand, before the Maori arrived, had no land mammals at all, due to the impossibility of mammals actually getting to the islands. So birds and reptiles ended up filling the ecological niches that would have typically been filled by large mammals. The moa was a grazer, taking the place of ungulates like deer or cattle. The Haast's eagle took the place of the apex predator that hunts the grazers. It was, evolutionarily speaking, the tiger of New Zealand.
The Maori hunted the moa to extinction by around 1400, barely a hundred years after they arrived at New Zealand. No other prey was large enough to sustain the massive Haast's eagle, so they quickly died out as well. The Maori knew the bird as Pouakai, made use of its bones, included it in their stories, drew pictures of it on cave walls, and occasionally, probably, ate it. The bird was certainly big and strong enough to prey on humans but there's no sign that it ever attempted to hunt the Maori.
Evidence of the Haast's eagle were first found in caves in the 1870s and then studied in the 1890s by Julius von Haast, a German scientist. Amazingly, it's found to be related most closely not to other huge eagles like the golden eagle but to the little eagle of Australasia, a tiny raptor about the size of a peregrine falcon. Island gigantism! Crazy! Maybe if they hadn't gone extinct 500 years ago, we'd be watching a possibly faked YouTube video of them today, carrying off a full-grown Quebecois man.

Amsterdam's red-light district opened its first "prostitution museum" on Thursday, hoping to lure tourists who always wondered what life was like for those on the other side of the infamous glass windows — but were too afraid to ask.
"How do they live? What happens in their world?" said Melcher de Wind, a founder of the Red Light Secrets Museum of Prostitution which showcases one of the Dutch capital's most famous attractions.
"I have always wondered what really happens behind those neighborhood windows."
Nestled between two famous brothels overlooking a canal, the new attraction seeks to offer something different to nearby museums on the subject such as the Sex Museum or the Museum of Eroticism.
"The other museums focus on sex and sexual performance. The new museum gives you a glimpse into the world of sex workers — what it feels like to stand behind a window and the looks you get," explained Yolanda van Doeveren, who deals with prostitution for the Amsterdam municipality.
"Maybe tourists will get a chance to change their behavior and show a little more respect," she added.
Inside the small museum, a large television screen shows a woman performing a strip-tease. Visitors are then shown a film about the other side of prostitution — women with families living everyday lives.
There are exhibits showing how both fashions and attitudes towards the world's oldest profession have changed over the centuries.
Visitors are shown a display of the tools of the trade — condoms, lubricants and sex toys — based on the experiences of former prostitute Ilonka Stakelborough who advised the museum.
Prostitution in the Netherlands was legalized in 2000 and there are now around 7,000 people working in the industry in Amsterdam.
Around three-quarters of the women come from low-income countries, mainly from Eastern Europe, according to Amsterdam municipality figures.
They pay the equivalent of US$202 to hire one of Amsterdam's 409 "frames," which comes with a chair in front and a bed at the back.
Many women work 11 hours a day, six days a week with a visit to a prostitute lasting around 10 minutes.
The museum depicts BDSM (bondage, domination, sado-masochism) practices, and also features a "luxury" room with mirrored ceilings, a bed lit from below, and a bathtub next to an open bottle of champagne.
By way of contrast, there is a small room with barely space for a single bed that was used by a Polish prostitute when she was not with clients.
"We want to show all aspects of prostitution," Stakelborough told AFP.
"Yes, there are women who are victims of human trafficking, but prostitution is mostly a career many women volunteer for."

Michael Pitt showed up at a society event in New York last night alongside the likes of Anna Wintour and Marc Jacobs and pouted with his big lips as though being there was an affront to his artistic integrity. That pubic f-ckery on his face is an affront to my visual integrity. Anyone who grooms their sh-t like that is an automatic please leave my party now.
Speaking of Boardwalk Empire...
The season finale is waiting for me – I hope – on my PVR. And I really hope they don't kill off Lucy. Because, as you know, I LOVE Paz de la Huerta. Paz is the candy on the show. She's the Mimi of Atlantic City. She is a delight to watch. For the amazingness. I laughed for an hour after that scene when she gets nailed from behind by Michael Shannon and she's, like, still moaning after he pulls his penis out. She was probably moaning 10 minutes after they yelled Cut. THAT is Paz de la Huerta.
This is Paz at the Blue Valentine premiere earlier this week. I only knew about her being there after writing up at that report yesterday on Lively and Gosling from the WWD article with this delightful throwaway sentence:
Harley Viera-Newton manned the DJ booth near a shimmying Paz de la Huerta, who seemed hell-bent on a wardrobe malfunction.
That one sentence reminded me of a profile I read on Paz in New York Magazine a few months ago. I PROMISE you, it's the best time you'll have reading anything all week. So do it on lunch hour. Or with a glass of wine/martini later tonight. Morning coffee on Sunday. Savour it. You will enjoy every word including the part where she says Elvis rubbed her off through his grave at Graceland.

About Tiger Power Play
Nationally recognized for both men's and women's hockey excellence, the hockey programs' growth and success has passed a point where the current rink, Ritter Arena, will meet RIT's needs. As a Division I hockey program, the RIT Tigers require:
- Tournament approved ice size.
- Recruiting support. As a mixed D1/D3 university, RIT cannot offer player scholarships, and needs to balance those offers to heavily recruited players to enhance RIT's appeal.
- Tournament facilities including visiting locker rooms, security requirements, media facilities, expanded visitor parking, guest services.
- Revenue sharing opportunities to support D1 tournament play, including expanded seating capacity, concessions and guest services for additional revenue as required by visiting teams.
Here are key questions and answers related to "Tiger Power Play: The Campaign for RIT Hockey":
Q: What is the rationale, case for a new arena?
A: Certainly RIT faces big expectations with each winning season. But in fact, the launch of a new rink is a logical next step in the men's and women's continuing march toward national prominence. Steady progress and success for men's hockey, and the recent move to D1 for women's hockey both mean that this new facility is now a necessity. Recognizing the need for a bigger venue to match RIT's national stature, there is an equal need to create a high-value fan experience. RIT's loyal fan base will seek an atmosphere that is similar to that in Ritter Arena, but the teams' expanded fan base will expect an experience that provides increased bang for their entertainment buck.
Q: What is the capacity of the new arena?
A: The new arena will have seating for approximately 4,000 including suites and club seats.
Q: Where on campus will the new arena be built?
A: The new arena will be constructed in the heart of campus, on the south side of the Student Alumni Union at the end of the U parking lot.
Q: How much will this cost? And what is the breakdown between donors and other RIT funding?
A: The new arena will cost approximately $30 million. In addition to the $4.5 million gift from the Polisseni Foundation and Tom Golisano, RIT alumni Vicki and Steve Schultz provided a lead gift of $1 million, and RIT alumnus J.M. Allain, president of Trans Lux, has committed to providing a $1 million state-of-the-art scoreboard. RIT expects to raise a total of $15 million in donations. The balance of the funds would come from an aggressive business plan to use the arena as a venue for sports and entertainment.
Q: How can I give a gift?
A: Visit the campaign website: www.rit.edu/powerplay and click on Make a Gift.
Q: What is the schedule for construction?
A: Construction of the Gene Polisseni Center began with a groundbreaking ceremony on October 19, 2012. The first game for the new arena is scheduled for Fall 2014.
Q: What will happen to the current Ritter Arena?
A: Ritter Arena will remain open as an ice arena after the new arena is built. It is used by several community groups, and will be open for use by youth hockey teams and RIT students, faculty, and staff.
Q: Why not just expand the current Ritter Arena?
A: Because of the value of the Ritter atmosphere, RIT has explored retrofitting the arena at a cost on par with building a new rink. Sadly, Ritter Arena, constructed in the center of the RIT campus, is land-locked by other facilities and designed in such a way that expansion of seating and media capacity is not just expensive, it's impossible. In addition, Ritter was one of the original structures built when the RIT campus moved to its current location in the late 1960s. Its infrastructure has already been revamped and retrofitted through a series of upgrades simply to bring it up to the standards of last decade.
Q: Will the new arena be used for more than just hockey?
A: Yes. While primarily a hockey arena, options are being explored for use of the facility by others at RIT and the community at large.
Q: Will the new arena be a facility that can be accessed by the Rochester community outside of hockey games?
A: Yes. Part of the business model includes offering the arena to outside groups, such as youth hockey programs and non-hockey community events.
Q: Will there still be hockey games at the Blue Cross Arena downtown?
A: Yes. A hockey game has become the new tradition and central rallying event during Brick City Homecoming and Family Weekend. Tiger fans will continue to fill Blue Cross with a sellout sea of orange (10,556 fans)!
Q: When is the women's team going Division I?
A: The women's hockey team announced in spring 2012 that they would move to Division I in the 2012-2013 season. This announcement came after the women's team won the NCAA Division III national championship.

While browsing SourceForge I stumbled upon this project called Dark Nova, which is an open source StarCraft engine recreation. While it has apparently been abandoned at a rather early stage of development, it seems that the authors were able to implement a lot of features.
According to the project FAQ, Dark Nova was developed as a tool to create advanced mods and TCs for StarCraft.

Teen found dead after sleigh ride on Wildcat Mountain
Joseph Murad, of Hanson, found by searchers in Pinkham Notch
A Massachusetts teen was found dead after he disappeared while sledding at midnight on the slopes of Wildcat Mountain in New Hampshire.
Joseph Murad, 18, of Hanson, Mass., was found dead by a search party in Pinkham Notch. Murad and two friends had hiked to the summit of Wildcat Mountain on Thursday night with the intention of sledding back down ski trails to the bottom, officials said.
When Murad did not return, his friends tried to search for him and then called for help.
Conservation officers met with Wildcat Mountain ski patrol and groomer operators at the base of the mountain and formulated a search plan. Shortly before 8 a.m., a ski patroller from Wildcat Mountain spotted Murad's sled in the woods off of the side of the Cat Track Trail, about half a mile below the summit. His body was found near the sled.
The ski slopes of Wildcat Mountain were closed during the time that Murad was on the mountain, and the trails are not open to sledding.
