CEO of Eco-Libris, Raz Godelnik, December 20, 2010:
Last month we celebrated the 2010 Green Books Campaign. On November 10, at 1 p.m., 200 bloggers simultaneously published reviews of 200 books printed on recycled or FSC-certified paper. By turning a spotlight on books printed using eco-friendly paper, Eco-Libris aimed to raise consumer awareness about considering the environment when making book purchases.
The idea was very simple - although there's so much hype around e-books, books printed on paper still dominate the book market (with at least 90 percent share of the book marketplace) and we want them to be as environmentally sound as possible. Still, only very few books are currently printed responsibly. With this campaign we wanted to encourage publishers to increase their green printing options and readers to take the environment into consideration when purchasing books.
The books participating in the campaign represented a great variety of subjects including cooking, poetry, travel, adventure and children's books. It was important for us to show that printing books on eco-friendly paper shouldn't be limited only to books on green issues. This is a practice that should be used for all genres.
The participating books were published by 56 publishers from the U.S., Canada, Australia, and the U.K. that took part in the campaign. This diversified group of publishers includes both small and large presses who all print books on recycled and/or FSC-certified paper (Infinity Publishing was one of them).
This year's campaign was supported by Indigo Books & Music, the largest book retailer in Canada, as part of its efforts to draw attention to the need for more environmental paper in book publishing. This is a core goal of Indigo's environmental program, reinforced by Indigo's industry leading environmental paper policy. Currently Indigo is the only book retailer providing information online and through in-store kiosks that allow consumers to make informed decisions about where the paper content of their book comes from.
The campaign was very successful and we got great feedback from everyone involved – readers, bloggers, authors and publishers. Questions that we were asked again and again were: "Do readers care about "green" books?" and "Why does it really matters?"
Starting with the second (and easier) question: we are positive that readers' preferences matter because they are the end-consumers and if they would demand books to be printed in an eco-friendly manner it will provide a significant incentive for publishers to move forward and adopt greener practices. If readers are indifferent to the type of paper books are printed on then it will be more difficult to convince publishers that using eco-friendly paper is beneficial – to succeed in this sort of change it needs to be a win-win strategy that benefits not only the environment, but also the bottom line.
Now to the first and more difficult question – do readers care? I believe they do. People are looking for ways to support the environment and take positive action and book readers are no different. I believe that two steps are required to get readers into action – the first is to provide them with information and educate them about the alternatives available. The second is to find ways to reward them for taking a positive green action. The Green Books Campaign, which we ran this year for the second year, was aimed to meet the first need (information). Now our goal is to find the best ways to meet the second need (rewards that will incentivize green action).
While working on the new challenges we defined to ourselves such as finding the right rewarding model and looking for ways to make e-reading greener, We will continue and run the Green Books Campaign next year and hopefully every following year, as we believe that educating the readers is a prerequisite for any change to come. With the strong support we have from bloggers, authors and publishers that want to see more books with a smaller footprint, we are positive we can succeed in making this change happen.Raz Godelnik is the co-founder and CEO of Eco-Libris. He also writes regularly on green business for the second-largest newspaper in Israel and teaches a course on Sustainability and Green Business at the University of Delaware's Business School. Founded in 2007, Eco-Libris is a green company working with publishers, authors, bookstores, and book lovers worldwide to green up the book industry by promoting the adoption of green practices, balancing out books by planting trees, and supporting green books.

Bunny Tail Grass (Lagurus Ovatus)
Latin Name: Lagarus ovatus
Item #: 1715
ORNAMENTAL GRASS (Lagurus ovatus)
Annual - 15 in/38 cm
Bunny Tail Grass. (Hare's tail) Approx. 45,000 seeds per oz/28 gr.
Usually supplied as clean seed, without seed shell. Dense woolly heads average 2 in/5 cm with downy hairs. This is an annual grass in most areas, so commercial growers should treat plants as a bedding plant. Plants take 3 - 4 months from seed to full maturity (cut flower material).
CULTURE: Seeds are fairly small (approx. 2,000 seeds per gr). Although seed can be sown indoors Apr. 15th in rows or cell paks for late May sales - most cut flower growers sow directly outdoors May 1st in rows. Germinate at 60°F/16°C for 7 - 14 days. Sow seed as thin as possible, thin plants to 8 in/20 cm apart. Harvest stems about 3 - 4 months from seeding. Both the light green foliage and stems are covered with soft furry down. This species has been cultivated for centuries and produces many attractive terminal spikes of cottony, fluffy heads. Flower (or seed heads) do not shatter with age - so it's a favorite for winter dried flower bouquets.

When most people look at a messy car they feel:
- A need to clean
- Annoyed
- Apathetic
And many other feelings. But one thing most people don't feel is unsafe. If you think about it, when your vehicle becomes a mobile living room/dining room where your kids entertain themselves on trips and eat snacks in the car or you have lunch on the go, stuff tends to accumulate.
Half-full water bottles, toys, clothing items, trash (it's okay to admit that), books, and other random things all end up on the floor, in your footwells and in your cargo area. And when you're busy, you don't always have time to clean the car out every day. And all that stuff… sits.
Loose items become projectiles
Any item left in your car can become a projectile in the event of a sudden stop. We created this video for Child Passenger Safety Week in September 2017 and it shows exactly what we're talking about.
This is where a Travall Guard can come in handy! When properly installed our Guard could help contain loose items in your trunk or cargo area away from your passengers.
Trash makes your car feel trashy
We've all done it, left a half-full drink bottle or sippy cup in the car. Not realizing the kiddos left their fruit snack wrappers on the floor. The apple slice that ends up under the seat only to be found mummified (or worse) during a deep clean. We're human. The important thing to remember is that these things can be a health hazard, depending on what is left in the car. Opening an old sippy cup with milk that's turned is not something anyone wants to experience more than once… I can still smell it if I think about it.
The possibility of theft
If you are one to leave items in your car like backpacks, toys, clothing, and other gear when you head into the house, you could be targeted by thieves. Leaving these things in your car when it's parked in the garage at home is just fine, but if it's in a parking lot or parked on the street you could be in for a break in. Always remember to put valuables in the trunk or hide them underneath a blanket in your cargo area to discourage theft.
Keeping your car looking great can be a bit of chore, but it's worth it for the added safety and protection it will give you!

People generally want what is taught in schools to be useful outside of school. Yet, some people also claim that standardized tests are a waste of money (letters, Feb. 3). Consider how many standard tests people take outside of school: driver's tests, professional license tests, taxes, loan applications, and job applications, to name a few. When I test a cashier on how much I owe and how much change I should get back, I expect them to answer 100 percent correctly, 100 percent of the time.
If a student can't answer a standard question that they have studied for, why should we expect them to be able to answer nonstandard questions that pop up in life that they haven't studied for?
It is appropriate to question the content, frequency or length of tests. It can be appropriate to customize test administration methods for individuals. But to suggest that standardized testing has no value is to divorce what is taught in school from the rest of life.
Evidently, we need to emphasize it more — test taking is one of the most valuable lifetime skills that students hopefully learn in school.

Final environmental assessment, environmental assessment/regulatory impact review for proposed Amendment 107 to the fishery management plan for groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area : establishing transit areas through walrus protection areas at Round Island and Cape Peirce, North Bristol Bay, Alaska
Published Date:2014
Alternative Title:Establishing Transit Areas through Walrus Protection Areas, December, 2014 ; Environmental Assessment for Establishing Transit Areas through Walrus Protection Areas at Round Island and Cape Peirce, Northern Bristol Bay, Alaska (RIN 0648-BE24) ;
Personal Author:
Corporate Authors:
Description:This document evaluates alternatives to allow vessels with Federal Fisheries Permits (FFPs) to transit walrus protection areas at Round Island and Cape Peirce from April 1 through August 15 while tendering herring or salmon or delivering groundfish to trampers or processors. The purpose of this action is to maintain suitable protection for walruses on Round Island and Cape Peirce, restore access to vessels with FFPs serving as tenders for the northern Bristol Bay herring and salmon fisheries to the routes used by tenders before implementation of GOA FMP Amendment 83, to allow vessels delivering groundfish access to the route north of Round Island, and to reduce the likelihood of disturbance to walrus on Hagemeister Island and Cape Peirce. Alternatives include: 1) no action -- vessels with FFPs remain excluded from the walrus protection area, 2) open portion of the Round Island walrus protection area to transit with three options of increasing distance and 3) open portion of the Cape Peirce walrus protection area to transit. Three transit options are considered under Alternative 2: 1) open up to 3 nm from Round Island, 2) open up to 4.5 nm from Round Island, and 3) open up to 6 nm from Round Island. The Council recommended Alternative 2, Option 1 and Alternative 3 as the Preferred Alternative. None of the alternatives analyzed, including the Preferred Alternative, are likely to result in significant impacts to the human environment of northern Bristol Bay, or to result in significant economic impacts to individuals or entities in northern Bristol Bay.

belief in oneself and one's powers or abilities; self-confidence; self-reliance; assurance: His lack of confidence defeated him.
The past few weeks have presented the team with their first real test of character. This character has been further questioned with the horrible events of Saturday evening, which, thankfully appear to be progressing positively.
Earlier in the season we were a team brimming with the kind of confidence that led to talk of an unlikely title push, fellow teams and peers of Redknapp's regaling the press with word that we, Tottenham Hotspur are playing the most attractive football throughout the league, something often levelled at the gypsies down the road. Now we are being told by none other than that footballing deity, Stan Collymore that we will finish fifth, our own manager has claimed we will be punching above our weight to even finish in fourth. Whether or not you agree with this is neither here nor there – I don't but it doesn't matter.
If we are to achieve our highest league finish for over 20 years it must the players who believe it is within them to claim that all important 3rd place. A player like Bale has displayed confidence in wanting to be more involved in varying positions; which is great and to be encouraged within reason, however now is not the time for pandering to the whims of Bale or for Redknapp to stake a claim that Bale's attempts to emulate Ronaldo are thanks to him. No, now is the time we revert to what gave us that abundance of confidence that almost saw us 13 points clear of Arsenal, 10 ahead of Chelsea (even keeping the flickering flame on the diminishing wick of our title challenge alive).
I am all for evolution within a team, the kind that might well see Bale as an accomplished player on par or comparable to Ronaldo but it can't be to the detriment of the Club. I would implore Redknapp to remember what worked so well for us and can continue to for the remainder of the season. Only then, once we have achieved a new level of relative success can we begin to think of how we can further ourselves, personally and as a unit.
I'll remain completely faithful to the players and managers in the hope that they can remain faithful to themselves.
Confidence is an undervalued commodity when it comes to winning….we mustn't succumb to over confidence or a lack of. Starting tomorrow night we have the chance to resurrect a still fantastic season.

Dhaka, June 3: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Friday left Dhaka for Jeddah on a five-day official visit at the invitation of Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
A special flight of Biman Bangladesh Airlines carrying the Prime Minister and her entourage took off from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 4:15pm in the afternoon.
The flight is expected to reach Jeddah King Abdulaziz International Airport at 8:00pm (local time) the same day.
Bangladesh Ambassador to Saudi Arabia and Permanent Representative to the OIC Golam Masih, Bangladesh Consul General in Jeddah AKM Shahidul Karim and a representative of the Saudi government will receive Sheikh Hasina at the airport.
Upon her arrival at the airport, the Prime Minister will be given a guard of honour.
Later, she will be taken to Jeddah Royal Conference Palace in a ceremonial motorcade where she would be staying during her stay in Jeddah.
It will be the first visit of the Bangladesh Prime to Saudi Arabia after the swearing-in of Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud as the King.
Sheikh Hasina will perform holy Umrah at Haram Sharif in Makkah on Friday night and offer Fazr prayers on Saturday.
She is likely to lay the foundation stone of Bangladesh Chancery Complex and Bangladesh House, Riyadh at a function at Jeddah on Saturday evening.
On Sunday afternoon, Sheikh Hasina will hold bilateral talks with the Saudi King at the Al Salam Palace at Al Andalus in Jeddah where the entire gamut of bilateral interest, regional and international issues would be discussed.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz is expected to welcome the Bangladesh Prime Minister at the palace.
"The expansion of Bangladesh labour market in Saudi Arabia, bilateral trade, Saudi support for uplift projects and hajj management will dominate bilateral talks between Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud during her Saudi visit June 3-7," Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali told a news briefing here on Wednesday.
He said the Prime Minister will lead a high-powered delegation comprising the foreign minister, senior officials, members of the elite and a business group during the visit.
On Sunday morning, a number of Saudi ministers and senior officials would call on Sheikh Hasina at Jeddah Royal Conference Palace.
Saudi Deputy Minister for Defence Salman bin Sultan Al Saud and Adviser of the Royal Council of the Saudi King Yaser Al Mian will meet the Prime Minister in the evening at the same place.
On Monday morning, Hasina will leave Jeddah for Madina by air. After arrival at the Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz Airport in Madina, she would be taken to Madina Hilton where she will be staying during her visit to Madina.
She will offer Asr and Maghrib prayers at Masjid-e-Nababi in Madina and offer ziarat at the grave of Rawza Mubarak of Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH).
The Prime Minister will leave Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz Airport in Madina for home at 10.30 am on Tuesday morning. She is scheduled to reach Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka at 7.30 pm (BST) the same day.
Hasina earlier visited Saudi Arabia in April 2009 after assuming office as the Prime Minister at the invitation of the then King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz. She also visited Saudi Arabia in November, 2013 to perform Umrah.

eeNews: But was there anything in your childhood, in Noviglio, that drew you to engineering rather than physics or to electronics rather than another type of engineering.
Carlo Bozotti: Not really, music was my thing. I started learning piano as a child but stopped when I went to junior high school. But I picked it up again at 15 and was in a band until the second year of university, playing keyboards. We used to support some big acts and played in front of as many as 2,000 people; Saturday nights, Sunday nights. Sometimes we would open for the main band and then close the evening at midnight and have two hours' drive to get back to Noviglio.
eeNews: What was the line-up and what sort of music did you play?
Carlo Bozotti: Two guitars, keyboards, bass and drums. We were called Le Immagini, which translates as The Images. We played two types of music. One was international pop music. I liked Brian Auger, a Hammond organist with a jazz influence; Santana, Deep Purple, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Genesis. And then we played Italian music, still contemporary but slightly different.
I can play Jazz piano a bit and it is one of the things I want to do more of now.
Carlo Bozotti: Jazz pianist and power guy.
eeNews: When did you join SGS?
Carlo Bozotti: In 1977 on February 1. It was my first real job and I had done 41 years and 4 months when I retired. The company found the original employment contract that I signed and gave it back me when I retired. I worked at Castelletto on power semiconductors. I am a power guy at heart. ST still has the facility and I went there recently. Now it is focused on smartpower technologies.
eeNews: Can you remember what you did on your first day at work?
Carlo Bozotti: Not really, but my first job at SGS was measuring the performance of transistors we were producing and making sure they matched the requirements. We had a 3-inch fab there for production. Castelletto is important to me because it was the first phase of my career; my first trip to the United States was to discuss power transistors and my first time in an airplane was a flight down to Catania [SGS manufacturing site in Sicily].
Castelletto was an R&D fab for power semiconductors and I remember I had access to a curve tracer for measuring I-V characteristics and, of course, it was very different to how it is now. I had something that was partly an office and partly a measurement lab and was employed as product and applications engineer for the next three years.

FIT…for the London Marathon.
This year, for the first time, the Fungal Infection Trust will have a sponsored runner in the London Marathon on April 26th. Please support Jenny Long who is running the London Marathon for FIT!
Jenny Long who is training to be an ENT surgeon, in between her clinics at Northwick Park Hospital, is hard at work training to set a personal best time in the Marathon and to raise funds for FIT.
Jenny has bravely agreed to wear a giant mushroom as a hat – to represent the source of fungi- so she should be easy to find on the day.
FIT is seeking to raise £130,000 for ground breaking research into the genetic aspects of susceptibility to fungal infections.
The Fungal Infection Trust is a small charity specialising in funding Research and raising Awareness of fungal lung infections and LIFE threatening illnesses that are caused by fungi.
Unless you know someone who has or had a serious fungal lung infection you may not recognise how important this work is. We at FIT work alongside a specialised Centre – The National Aspergillosis Centre, the only one in the UK – which treats, cares for and supports patients with aspergillosis- one type of serious fungal lung infection.
We already have evidence that indicates a genetic factor, we need to take this research to the next stage – if we understand what role genetics plays in getting this disease, – we can achieve better outcomes and save lives.
The FIT is trying to raise £130,000 to fund a programme of research to understand the genetics of these fungal illnesses.
A particular form of allergic fungal infection of the lung, called allergic pulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), complicates not only some severe asthma patients but also those with cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis. These patients develop an allergy to the spores of the fungus, which all of us breathe daily, which leads to lung damage. It is often not recognised until late on and if not spotted and treated with antifungal medicine, this can lead to permanent lung damage called fibrosis.
We already have evidence that indicates genetics is involved. We need to take this research to the next stage – if we understand what role genetics plays in getting this disease – we hope to achieve better outcomes and improve the quality of life for thousands of people.
Many genes are involved, including those associated with the recognition of aspergillus in the lungs and those associated with processing of foreign antigens by the immune system. Some other genetic links which are not yet well understood, relate to cell – cell junctions and proteins (enzymes) called tyrosine kinases which affect cell- cell adherence and communication channels in a cell.
The programme of research will assess how tyrosine kinases work in airways cells in the presence and absence of aspergillus. An assessment of the specific genetic differences in patients with the allergic-type of aspergillus illness will be studied with the goal of improving diagnosis and treatment for sufferers if FIT can raise the funds required.
So please sponsor Jenny Long in the london Marathon on April 26th.
Please help support our efforts. Sponsor Jenny in her marathon run or donate to the FIT via her Virgin giving page. Or to text donate type : ASPE14 £5 to 70070. (Substitute £5 with £2, £4 or £10 as you prefer. UK mobile phones only).

Planned usage in 2019-2020
For the 2019/20 financial year, ATA will receive approximately £380,000 by way of pupil premium funding to support the education entitlement of those who are most disadvantaged. Aside from the provision of Free School Meals (FSM) - for which support funding is provided separately within the main grant allocation - ATA also continues to support qualifying students with financial assistance when purchasing their ATA uniforms at the start of both Year 7 and Year 9 (£55 per relevant year); with a contribution towards the cost of one residential trip during their time at ATA ( £95 contribution) and in subsidising 50% of the cost of music lessons, from which a handful of students continue to benefit in 2019/20. This number has dropped in recent years but it's a provision that the Academy continues to offer.
The majority of this funding continues to be devoted to staff members who are focused on disadvantaged students and, in particular, with the continued provision of Learning Mentors and Assistant Learning Mentors, as well as funding a proportion of the time spent by senior staff and pastoral heads in specific monitoring of these and of LAC students. Mentoring benefits not only those who are removed from whole class situations for individualised study but also those remaining within the class setting, allowing them to work more effectively as a group of students without disruption. Those who have individualised study are reintegrated into mainstream settings, when appropriate, and those absent from ATA for various reasons are provided with catch-up opportunities, again run with dedicated staff support.
The funding continues to be used to support the progress of the most vulnerable students in ATA through raising their literacy and numeracy and by allowing focused groups to operate. The Academy will maintain an even stronger focus with the continuation of study hall, departmental power hours, after-school catch up sessions and the use of both the Easter and May term breaks for exam revision sessions. This stronger focus has been aided by the significant upgrade over the summer of 2019 of the main Library and Learning Resources Centre (LRC), with seating and ICT provision for up to 84 students. The facility is available from 7.30 in the morning each day and until 5.30 in the evening (4.30 on Fridays) for students who lack study space and the correct ambience at home to complete work. This is overseen by the Academy Librarian in the morning and by a member of the library staff, an assistant learning mentor and a member of the Leadership Group (LG) after school. This is of significant benefit to those disadvantaged through a lack of available resources and learning environment at home.
Attendance and punctuality are key to progress and attainment at school and essential ingredients to a successful working life as adults. The employment of a full time Education Welfare Officer is fundamental to maximising these essential requirements, which can be a particular concern with those from disadvantaged backgrounds and the checking of absences is rigorously carried out. ATA operates a number of incentives to reward excellent attendance and uses an attendance tracker across all Year's 7 to 11. Students, form tutors, year heads and senior staff make significant use of this with a robust emphasis on the need for students (and staff) to be present at all times. Such focus continues in 2019/20 with an updated Attendance & Punctuality Policy and Procedures to underpin this. With a target for attendance again set at 97% (well above the 95% achieved for a school with similar levels of disadvantaged students in 2017/18 and continues to be in the top 3% of schools nationally). ATA also utilises the services of two Counsellors who each work a day per week with a number of vulnerable students.
ATA's extensive support provision, together with its unstinting focus on the requirement for traditional values, courtesies and expectations, enhances the attainment and progress levels of those for whom such funding is targeted. This has helped to narrow the outcomes achieved in public examinations and other attainment and progress measures. Progress for disadvantaged students remains negligibly below that of the Academy student population as a whole, but when compared to the national picture, they significantly outperform on both disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged platforms. As such, ATA remains a strong advocate of government priorities in what is a key area for schools to channel educational support. This can only assist in raising the levels of attainment for this particular group of students and to reduce the large attainment gap that exists nationally between disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged student examination success. ATA maintains that it provides an excellent role in this area.

"Coming Up" is a song written and performed by Paul McCartney. It is the opening track on his 1980 solo album McCartney II. Like other songs on the album, the song has a minimalist synthesised feel to it. It featured vocals sped up by using a vari-speed tape machine. McCartney played all instruments and shared vocal harmonies with wife Linda McCartney.
The single was a major chart hit in Britain, peaking at No. 2 on the singles chart. In the United States and Canada, the live version of the song performed by Paul McCartney and Wings (released as the B-side to the single) saw greater success.
In a Rolling Stone interview, McCartney explained how the song came about:[1]
I originally cut it on my farm in Scotland. I went into the studio each day and just started with a drum track. Then I built it up bit by bit without any idea of how the song was going to turn out. After laying down the drum track, I added guitars and bass, building up the backing track.
Then I thought, 'Well, OK, what am I going to do for the voice?' I was working with a vari-speed machine with which you can speed up your voice, or take it down a little bit. That's how the voice sound came about.
— Paul McCartney
John Lennon described "Coming Up" as "a good piece of work" and, according to McCartney, it prompted Lennon to return to recording in 1980.[2][3]
A live version of the song was recorded in Glasgow, Scotland, on 17 December 1979 by Wings during their tour of the UK. This version was included as one of two songs on the B-side; the other B-side was "Lunchbox/Odd Sox", a Wings song that dated back to Venus and Mars. Both B-sides were credited to Paul McCartney and Wings.
Columbia Records wanted to put the live version on McCartney II but McCartney resisted the change, wanting to keep it a solo album. Instead, a one-sided 7″ white-label promotional copy of the Wings version was included with the album in North America.
"Coming Up (Live at Glasgow)" has since appeared on the US versions of the McCartney compilations All the Best! (1987) and Wingspan: Hits and History (2001), while the solo studio version is included on UK and international releases.
A different live Wings recording of "Coming Up" appears on the album Concerts for the People of Kampuchea, with an additional verse that was excised from the Glasgow version.
"Coming Up" is also well known for its music video, with Paul McCartney playing ten roles and Linda McCartney playing two. The "band" identified as "The Plastic Macs" on the drum kit (a homage to Lennon's conceptual Plastic Ono Band), features Paul and Linda's imitations of various rock musician stereotypes, as well as a few identifiable musicians. In his audio commentary on the 2007 video collection The McCartney Years, McCartney identified characters that were impersonations of specific artists: Hank Marvin (guitarist from the Shadows), Ron Mael of Sparks (keyboards), a 'Beatlemania-era' version of himself, a drummer vaguely inspired by John Bonham from Led Zeppelin[4] and Buddy Holly.[5] While others such as author Fred Bronson have suggested that there are other identifiable impersonations in the video, such as Andy MacKay and Frank Zappa.[6] McCartney said the other roles were simply comic relief.[7]
The video premiered in the UK on The Kenny Everett Video Show on 14 April 1980 and in the US on Saturday Night Live on 17 May 1980.[8]
In the UK, the single was an immediate hit, reaching number two in its third week on the chart.[9]
In the US, Columbia Records promoted the live version, which subsequently received more airplay than the studio version. McCartney was unaware of Columbia's move, otherwise he might have pushed for the A-side, which he thought was the stronger version. An executive from Columbia Records explained the switch by stating "Americans like the sound of Paul McCartney's real voice."[1]
In the US, "Coming Up" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for sales of over one million copies.[10] Although the live version received more airplay and was considered to be the "hit", Billboard listed the A-side on the Hot 100 for the first 12 weeks on the chart, including three weeks at number one, before switching to the more popular B-side for the remaining nine weeks on the chart.[11]

Zine Workshop
We had a Zine Workshop at the OPIRG zine library. People came, they ate snacks, learned about zines, and made mini zines.
Good Bye Zine World
From the moment I found out about Zine World, I was in love. I asked if they needed any help with reviews and in a few short weeks I was on the review team, that was about 3 years ago. Over those years, I contributed cover art and many many reviews. I found it was hard to work on such a huge collective project with folks who were spread all over the globe, but it happened.
A few months ago the publisher/ editor/ person who held it all together expressed that they didn't want to be the bottom liner any more. So after much debate, ZW has folded. I'd like to thank everyone who helped with the project and everyone who read. Good Bye ZW.

Deirdre Kessler
Volume 22 Number 3
Deirdre Kessler has captured the magic of P.E.I. in her book, Prince Edward Island. The spirit of the island begins with the Micmac legend about the creation of the island, "Minegoo" or "Abegweit" meaning cradled on the waves, and continues as the reader, a tourist or junior high student, is introduced to many aspects of island life.
The geography and natural history of the island lead into colonial times, the Confederation era and modern times. Later the economy of farming, fishing and tourism is reviewed, with the decline of fishing noted. The book concludes with facts at a glance and brief biographies of forty-three well-known islanders, both contemporary and historic. The index and table of contents make the information accessible.
The photographs capture many aspects of island life, such as churches, farm fields, historic buildings, fishing harbours and many summer scenes of people enjoying the warmth. This book features an "Anne of Green Gables" island that so many people have known from holidays. Questions dealing with the economic future of many of the residents who have depended on the traditional fishing and farming are not raised.
This book will be a welcome addition to collections needing current information about P.E.I. It is highly recommended for junior high readers.

Anthony Scaramucci, former White House Communications Director and Founder of SkyBridge Capital, spoke about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency regulation in the US.
Scaramucci revealed that the statement made by Jamie Dimon, Chairman, and CEO of JPMorgan Chase was one of the main catalysts for the company to step in the game. In an interview with CNBC Crypto Trader, Scaramucci said:
"He [Jamie Dimon] made a statement several months ago saying that the whole thing [cryptocurrency] was a farce and he wasn't a believer in digital currency and then his staff […] we are working on it, we've got several hundred people inside JPMorgan, are working on it and so when he came out and issued a retraction of that statement."
This was when Scaramucci realized that they were "generationally" missing out on the potential of cryptocurrency given that one of the smartest people he knows in the financial sector stepped into the cryptocurrency market.
He further stated that the company has crossed the educational phase and is currently in the "product formulation phase", where the company will have products related to cryptocurrency space. He further said:
"So what's happening in the digital space is that you're gonna create a fully secure anonymous transfer of value that's frictionless. That is a Eureka moment in world history. That's an epochal event and I want to be a part of the early stages. I still think we're in the wild west of it, frankly […] It [Bitcoin] started in 2008, it's 2018. I still think we're on the frontier."
Furthermore, Scaramucci spoke about the regulation in the USA, which is stopping several funds from entering the space. The former director stated that the governments were behind the "curve" and that they want to prolong the regulation of the cryptocurrency markets. He added that the governments have used 5500 years of their ability to "manipulate the currency and interest rates" and that they monetize debt.
Scaramucci further stated:
"So, let me give you a specific example. We take the United States off the gold standard in 1971, one ounce of gold was worth $35. Today, one ounce of gold is worth roughly $1200. So when people say well, we haven't monetized something look at that and so this is scaring the living daylights out of governments, all people and policymakers because what if you can't do that. What if you can do that to Bitcoin or Ethereum or whatever the next ICO or construct is out there"
He went on to say that because of this, the governments will prolong and "complain" about the regulating the market, eventually resulting in then realizing that the smartest move is to be a part of the space and issue their own coins.
The post Bitcoin [BTC] started in 2008, it's 2018; I still think we're on the frontier, says former White House Communications Director appeared first on AMBCrypto.

Developing Student Learning Outcomes
1. What are program student learning outcomes?
Program student learning outcomes (SLOs) are clear, concise statements that describe how students can demonstrate their mastery of program goals (Allen, M., 2008). These statements identify the knowledge, skills, or attitudes that students will be able to demonstrate, represent, or produce upon successful completion of the program.
2. Why develop and publish program student learning outcomes?
Student learning outcomes:
- Help students learn more effectively
- Make clear what students should expect from their educational experience
- Encourage students to be intentional learners who direct and monitor their own learning
- Help faculty design courses, curriculum, and programs
- Make graduates' skills and knowledge clear to employers, accrediting agencies, etc.
Questions that student learning outcomes address include the following:
- What knowledge, skills, abilities, and values should the ideal student graduating from our program demonstrate?
- How will they be able to demonstrate these capabilities?
- How well does our program prepare students for careers, graduate school, professional study, and/or lifelong learning?
- What evidence can we use to demonstrate growth in students' knowledge, skills, abilities, and values as they progress through our program?
Characteristics of program student learning outcomes:
- Describe what students learn, rather than what faculty will do or "cover"
- Framed in terms of the program and not individual courses
- Observable or measurable
- Important
- Alignment:
- Program SLOs align with school/college goals and institutional goals
- Course SLOs align with program SLOs
- Rely on verbs that specify definite, observable behaviors
- Focus on the central abilities of the discipline. Incorporate or adapt professional organizations' outcome statements when they exist.
- Stated such that evidence related to the outcome can be gathered by more than one data-collection method
- Collaboratively authored and collectively accepted
- 3-6 outcomes are ideal
3. Good outcomes use verbs that describe definite, observable actions
Bloom et al.'s taxonomy is a well-known description of levels of educational objectives. It may be useful to consider this taxonomy when defining your outcomes.
4. Developing program student learning outcomes
Before developing program student learning outcomes, it might be helpful to consider
these questions which focus on outcomes in slightly different ways:
For each of the stated program goals, what are the specific knowledge, skills, or attitudes that would tell you this goal is being achieved?
What would a skeptic need (evidence, behavior, etc.) in order to see that your students are achieving the major goals you have set out for them?
In your experience, what evidence tells you when students have met these goals – how do you know when they're "getting" it?
Learning outcome statements may be broken down into 3 main components:
A verb that identifies the performance to be demonstrated
A learning statement that specifies what learning will be demonstrated in the performance
A broad statement of the criterion or standard for acceptable performance
For example:
5. Examples of program student learning outcomes
Natural Sciences
- Students can apply the scientific methodology in a research proposal.
- Students can evaluate the validity and limitations of theories and scientific claims in experimental results.
- Students can assess the relevance and application of science in everyday life.
- Graduates can write research papers in APA (American Psychological Association) style.
- Graduates can analyze experimental results and draw reasonable conclusions from them.
- Graduates can recognize and articulate the foundational assumptions, central ideas, and dominant criticisms of the psychoanalytic, behaviorist, humanistic, and cognitive approaches to psychology.
- Students can list major events in American history.
- Students can describe major events and trends in American history.
- Students can apply their knowledge of American history to examine contemporary American issues.
6. Good practices
Publicize program outcomes in the catalog, on the web, on syllabi, annual report,
brochures, etc.
Use program outcomes to guide course and curriculum planning so students experience a cohesive curriculum
Use program outcomes to shape assessment efforts and faculty/staff conversations surrounding student learning
Collaboratively develop program outcomes; discuss and collectively accept program outcomes
