why do the catholic irish wear green
On March 17, we celebrateб, a day rich in tradition and goes way back in history. We associate the color green with this holiday, but that color has not always been the color used on this holiday. St. PatrickБs Day was originally a Catholic holiday celebrating IrelandБs patron saint. It was only celebrated in Ireland. In the 1700s Irish immigrants in the U. S. started the first St. PattyБs Day Parade in New York City. Blue was the color originally associated with this holiday. IrelandБs nickname is БThe Emerald IsleБ so because of this,б
б on this holiday. б Also the green in the flag and the clover St. Patrick used in his teachings about Catholicism played a big role in why green is the color used on this day.
Some still follow the tradition in Ireland. Catholics will wear green and Protestants will wear orange. These colors are colors represented on the flag and the white in the middle represents the peace between the two. There is a legend that wearing green on this day makes you invisible and leprechauns canБt pinch you because they canБt see you. Nowadays, St PattyБs Day is an excuse to party, drink, wear green and go around pinching people that arenБt wearing green. Now that you know the history behind why we wear green on this holiday, are you planning on wearing green on Monday?
On this Saint PatrickБs Day, you are likely to take part in that time-honored tradition of wearing green. If not, you risk punishment by pinch, an especially popular custom on schoolyards and around office water coolers. Thus, wearing green on Saint PatrickБs Day is not only widely practiced, itБs virtually required. ItБs hard to imagine the holiday without green. But for a growing number of people, taking part in the holiday means wearing orange. According to this increasingly popular tradition, Protestants wear orange and leave green attire to Catholics.
Thus, the color you wear actually depends on your religious affiliation. While this color tradition is not well known, it has deep roots in Irish history. Protestant Irish have been known as БorangeБ ever since 1690, when William of Orange (William III), the king of England, Scotland, and Ireland, defeated King James II, a Roman Catholic, in the Battle of the Boyne near Dublin. King WilliamБs victory would ensure Protestant dominance on the island, and has been a source of tension ever since. Although the БOrangeБ in WilliamБs name actually referred to a province in southern France, the color reference stuck.
This is why orange now appears in the Irish flag Б to symbolize the Protestant minority in Ireland. Thus, БOrange ProtestantsБ have been around for quite a while, but wearing the color on Saint PatrickБs is a relatively new phenomenon. The first group to take part in the tradition appears to have been the Orange Institution, a Protestant fraternal organization (some might say terrorist organization) more commonly known as the Orange Order. Some members of the order wore orange in various parades on Saint PatrickБs Day as a mark of defiance. Ironically, Saint Patrick himself would have been surprised by all of the fuss.
Patrick wasnБt even Irish; he came to Celtic Ireland as a British missionary. More importantly, Patrick did most of his work in the fifth century, at a time when Christians were simply Christians, long before any division was evident between Roman Catholics and Protestants. Therefore, Saint Patrick belongs to the whole church, not just Rome, and people of all colors and creeds should take part in the festivities. Yet for some Protestants, part of that fun involves wearing orange. So before the green-wearing Irish among you get into a pinching craze, think twice. Some of us wear orange for a reason.

Man climbs Chicago skyscraper using bionic leg
Associated Press
CHICAGO (AP) – The metal on Zac Vawter's bionic leg gleamed as he climbed the 103 floors of Chicago's iconic Willis Tower, becoming the first person ever to complete the task wearing a mind-controlled prosthetic limb.
Vawter, who lost his right leg in a motorcycle accident, put the smart limb on public display for the first time during an annual stair-climbing charity event called "SkyRise Chicago" hosted by the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, where he is receiving treatment.
"Everything went great," said Vawter at the event's end. "The prosthetic leg did its part, and I did my part."
The leg is designed to respond to electrical impulses from muscles in his hamstring. When Vawter thought about climbing the stairs, the motors, belts and chains in his leg synchronized the movements of its ankle and knee.
The computerized prosthetic limb, like something from a sci-fi film, weighs about 10 pounds and holds two motors.
Bionic _ or thought-controlled _ prosthetic arms have been available for a few years, thanks to pioneering work done at the Rehabilitation Institute. Knowing leg amputees outnumber people who have lost arms and hands, the Chicago researchers are focusing more on lower limbs. If a bionic hand fails, a person drops a glass of water. If a bionic leg fails, a person falls down stairs.
This event was a research project for us, said Joanne Smith, the Rehabilitation Institute's CEO.
"We were testing the leg under extreme conditions. Very few patients who will use the leg in the future will be using it for this purpose. From that perspective, its performance was beyond measure," Smith added.
To prepare for his pioneering climb, Vawter said, he practiced on a small escalator at a gym, while researchers spent months adjusting the technical aspects of the leg to ensure that it would respond to his thoughts.
When Vawter goes home to Yelm, Wash., where he lives with his wife and two children, the experimental leg will stay behind in Chicago. Researchers will continue to refine its steering. Taking it to the market is still years away.
"We've come a long way, but we have a long way to go," said lead researcher Levi Hargrove of the institute's Center for Bionic Medicine. "We need to make rock solid devices, more than a research prototype."
The $8 million project is funded by the U.S. Department of Defense and involves Vanderbilt University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Rhode Island and the University of New Brunswick.
"A lot of people say that losing a leg is like losing a loved one," said Vawter. "You go through a grieving process. You establish a new normal in your life and move on. Today was a big event. It's just neat to be a part of the research and be a part of RIC."
Nearly, 3,000 climbers participated in the annual charity event. Participants climbed about 2,100 steps to the Willis Tower's SkyDeck level to raise money for the institute's rehabilitation care and research.

Sinead Bryan, an independent student at Oak Hill and a university mission worker, says...
My own time at university was life changing. I grew in knowledge of God and Christian maturity and saw God at work powerfully in my life and those around me. What better mission field to go into? The university campus is where we find our future leaders, a melting pot of cultures and nationalities, and a hub for thinking and learning about lifes big questions.
God called me to full-time ministry while I was a student and my time at Oak Hill has equipped me in ways I never thought it would! Doctrine has helped me immensely during question panels at student events, and biblical studies have enabled me to handle the Bible wisely. A conversation I was recently involved in with a student leader even had me drawing on my church history! Oak Hill has given me a firm foundation for a lifetime of ministry.
Most of all, Oak Hill has helped me love the Lord Jesus more. I've seen him revealed in scripture, I've learned of God's faithfulness to his people throughout history, and most importantly I've been amazed by his outrageous grace to a lost people.

Product Code: | Watermark |
In use since 1978, the patented WATERMARK sensor is a solid-state electrical resistance sensing device that is used to measure soil water tension. As the tension changes with water content the resistance changes as well. That resistance can be measured using the WATERMARK Sensor.
The sensor consists of a pair of highly corrosion resistant electrodes that are imbedded within a granular matrix. A current is applied to the WATERMARK to obtain a resistance value. The WATERMARK Meter or Monitor correlates the resistance to centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) of soil water tension.
The WATERMARK is designed to be a permanent sensor, placed in the soil to be monitored and "read" as often as necessary with a portable or stationary device. Internally installed gypsum provides some buffering for the effect of salinity levels normally found in irrigated agricultural crops and landscapes.
The WATERMARK sensor is a resistive device that responds to changes in soil moisture. Once planted in the soil, it exchanges water with the surrounding soil thus staying in equilibrium with it. Soil water is an electrical conductor thereby providing a relative indication of the soil moisture status. As the soil dries, water is removed from the sensor and the resistance measurement increases. Conversely, when the soil is rewetted, the resistance lowers.
The WATERMARK sensor is unique in that it takes its resistive measurement within a defined and consistent internal matrix material, rather than using the surrounding soil as the measurement medium. This unique feature allows the sensor to have a stable and consistent calibration that does not need to be established for every installation.
The relationship of ohm of resistance to centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) of soil water tension is constant and built into the reading devices that are used to interrogate the sensor. The sensor is calibrated to report soil water tension, or matric potential, which is the best reference of how readily available soil water is to a plant. The WATERMARK sensor consists of stainless steel electrodes imbedded in a defined and consistent internal granular matrix material that acts like a soil in the way it moves water. This matrix is encased in a hydrophilic material that establishes good hydraulic conductivity with the surrounding soil and is held in place by a durable stainless steel perforated shell with plastic end caps.
The soil moisture measurement device, or sensor, shall represent soil moisture status in units of soil water tension or matric potential, registering in centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) when read with a compatible reading device. Its construction shall be of the Granular Matrix Sensor (GMS) type and require no on-site calibration or routine maintenance. It shall be durable, long-lasting, not subject to dissolving in a wet soil environment with an outer surface of stainless steel and ABS plastic. It shall be the WATERMARK sensor as manufactured by the IRROMETER Company, Inc. of Riverside, California.

The WATERMARK Meter is a hand held device designed for reading WATERMARK sensors in the field. The digital readout displays the sensors' soil moisture status in centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) of soil water tension. This value represents the energy a plant's root system uses to draw water from the soil. Whereas higher tension values indicate dryer soil, lower tension values indicate wetter soil. The meter's replaceable cable assembly has spring loaded clips for attaching to sensor leads. Users only need one meter to read any number of WATERMARK sensors. The meter comes in its own nylon case, padded and zippered for safe keeping when not in use.
The WATERMARK meter is designed to read all WATERMARK soil moisture sensors exclusvely. These sensors have an output of 500 – 30,000 ohms of electrical resistance which is non-linear. The meter uses a solid-state alternating current resistance bridge meter for reading the sensors and converts the resistance value into centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) of soil water tenson. The reading is displayed on an LCD screen [range 0 –199 cb (kPa)]. Soil temperature values can be input by the user to compensate for their effect on sensor reading.
The soil moisture monitoring system shall incorporate Granular Matrix Sensors (GMS) to measure soil water tension. The sensors shall use a digital meter to read sensor values. The meter shall have a soil temperature compensation feature and self test functions on its tactile keypad. The meter shall be the model #30- KTCD-NL WATERMARK digital meter as manufactured by the IRROMETER Company, Inc. of Riverside, California.

SAN FRANCISCO -- On the eve of their final homestand, only two-plus weeks of baseball now standing between them and a long vacation that to a man they will welcome with arms wide open, these Los Angeles Dodgers suddenly have left us knee-deep in reasons to pay attention. The only question now is whether anyone actually will.
The Dodgers finally came to the end of this interminable road trip Sunday, getting pounded 8-1 by the San Francisco Giants before a sellout crowd of 41,466 at AT&T Park, but that probably wasn't anything more than a momentary speed bump on this strangely compelling, too-little-too-late sprint to the finish. Hiroki Kuroda, one of their most reliable starting pitchers all season, struggled for the third start in a row, but he will have three more to right himself. The bullpen, rock-solid pretty much all season, suffered a one-game meltdown, but it's not a trend until it becomes one.
So as the Dodgers come home having won 15 of their past 19 to pull to within one game of the once-unattainable .500 mark -- they actually got there after beating the Giants on Saturday night, but this loss pushed them back under -- we are left basically to guess what kind of lens we should view this through.
For the optimist, it is a reason to hope, a reason to think that for all its ownership and bankruptcy issues, perhaps this franchise has a chance to be competitive in 2012 if all these youngsters who are making such strong impressions can continue to do so. For the pessimist, it is a reason to look back and wonder why it took so long, to point out that if the Dodgers hadn't stranded all those runners in scoring position and lost all those close games in April, May and June, maybe they would be doing more right now than playing out the string, even if they are playing it out with an admirably professional approach.
So what does it all really mean?
"It's really good to see the effort we're seeing," Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said this weekend. "A lot of times, with teams with high expectations, when they fall 12 games back or 14 back or whatever it was, and double digits under .500, a lot of those teams go home. To our players' credit they kept playing. That tells you who they are as people as much as how good they are as players."
Fair enough, but will that sell? We will find out this week, when the Dodgers begin their 10-game, home finale with a three-game series against the equally sizzling Arizona Diamondbacks, a team that needs only to avoid a collapse of historic proportions to storm into the playoffs. They have won only 16 of 19 games and almost came back from seven down to beat San Diego on Sunday before falling a run short.
The Dodgers most certainly will not storm into the playoffs, because another thing we are almost certain to see on this homestand is their mathematical elimination. Any combination of Diamondbacks wins and Dodgers losses equaling five will knock the Dodgers out of the National League West, and any combination of Dodgers losses and Atlanta Braves victories totaling six will bury them in the wild-card race.
Moral victories and consolation prizes don't count for much in Major League Baseball. And with much of the Los Angeles-area populace refusing to return to Dodger Stadium as long as it and the franchise that plays there remain in the hands of Frank McCourt, moral victories and consolation prizes aren't likely to sell a lot of tickets, either.
And so, if the Dodgers find a way to finish with a winning record after falling as many as 14 games below .500 as recently as July 6, if they find a way to overtake the Giants for second place in the NL West, will anyone care?
Will the Dodgers themselves even care?
"All we're asking these guys to do is get ready to play, and play hard every day," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "That is what we have tried to do all year, and these guys have done that. That is really the only goal for this club. We want to play hard and get ready to play through the last day, and wherever we end up is where we end up as far as our record."
Where the third-place Dodgers (72-73) stand now, at the end of a remarkable 7-3 trip, is 12 games behind the division-leading Diamondbacks and 3½ behind the Giants. But -- and this is where that aforementioned pessimism comes in -- they also are just 3½ ahead of the fourth-place Colorado Rockies, and there is no guarantee this thing won't turn on a dime and go back the other way, especially with the Diamondbacks coming to town.
The storylines aren't limited to wins, losses and standings, though. The Dodgers do have a solid Cy Young Award candidate in Clayton Kershaw, who will get three more starts, two of them on the homestand. They have a strong Most Valuable Player candidate in Matt Kemp, whose quest to become the fifth player in major league history to hit 40 homers and steal 40 bases is still very much alive. And they have Kuroda (11-16), who despite his record has been by far the Dodgers' second-best starter this year in what may or may not be his final season with the club and his final season in the U.S.
He also is slated for three more starts, and his troublesome neck stiffness notwithstanding, he said he plans to make all of them.
"I intend to prepare for my next start and for all of my starts for the rest of the season,'' Kuroda said, with Kenji Nimura interpreting.
The Dodgers fell flat in the final game of their trip, which primarily was a consequence of running into promising young Giants lefty Madison Bumgarner (11-12) on an afternoon when he was especially sharp. Their assignment doesn't get any easier from here, with Joe Saunders, Cy Young candidate Ian Kennedy and Daniel Hudson awaiting them in the Diamondbacks series, Kennedy set to go for his 20th win Tuesday night.
But it wasn't that long ago when there wouldn't have been any reason whatsoever to pay attention to this series, when the Dodgers would have been easy pickings against an opponent that can practically taste the champagne already. But that no longer is the case. The Dodgers aren't really in a position to play spoiler -- the Diamondbacks have such a big lead on the division that even a three-game sweep would do little to dent it -- but they are, suddenly, in a position to keep our interest.
And that alone is a sign of just how far this team has come in recent weeks.

Sold Out $59.99
Clarendon Hills Liandra Syrah 2004
Syrah/Shiraz from McLaren Vale, Australia
Winemaker's Notes
The 2004 Liandra Syrah, highlights the quality of the fruit that is produced from 100 year old vines, planted on a soil of clay and sand. Inky, glass staining purple in color, this wine is polished and aristocratic. Expansive floral bouquet of boysenberry, candied plum and kirsch. A generous expression of bright dark berries, cinnamon, subtle bacon and eucalyptus, gliding into a long, open finish.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Dark, glass-staining purple. Expansive, floral bouquet of boysenberry, candied plum, blueberry jam and kirsch, with sexy oak spices and vanilla accentuating the impression of sweetness. A gorgeous expression of bright dark berry flavors, complicated by deft notes of cinnamon, cigar box and star anise. This shows impressive power but also an overall sense of elegance and finesse, especially on the juicy, long finish. An amazing wine, with jaw-dropping concentration and clarity." -
Wine Enthusiast - "This is sexy stuff that proprietor Roman Bratasiuk says is "more Côte-Rôtie" than his other Syrahs. Its perfumed nose offers up hints of violets and cracked pepper to go along with raspberry fruit, while it's supple in the mouth—almost too easy—with pretty mixed berry flavors and a nib of bitter chocolate. Long and elegant on the finish. Drink now–2015." -
The Wine Advocate - "The 2004 Syrah Liandra was fashioned from 100-year-old vines grown in clay and sandy soils. Its inky/purple color is followed by a big, sweet nose of creme de cassis, blackberries, tar, and hints of smoke and bay leaves. Full-bodied, opulent, and rich with low acidity as well as sweet tannin, it can be drunk young or cellared for 10-15+ years. " -
Wine Spectator - "Polished, generous and aristocratic, with currant and boysenberry flavors strongly shaded with mint and eucalyptus overtones, gliding smoothly into the long, open-textured finish. Best from 2010 through 2020. 500 cases imported. " -
Wine & Spirits - "The aromas are intriguing, as if you'd just opened a jar of exotic fruit jam from the outback. Then the palate is syrupy, a juicy mass of fascinating flavor. You have to like thick wines, but if you do, Liandra is worth seeking out." - View All
Clarendon Hills Winery
Clarendon Hills is a small family-run winery based in Clarendon, South Australia. The company was founded by biochemist, Roman Bratasiuk, in 1990. The story of Clarendon Hills is one of passion, dedication and commitment to exception wine. It all began when this biochemist and wine lover decided to produce his own wine. Though he'd never trained as a winemaker, Roman let himself be guided by his refined palate and scientific knowledge. Following his favorite producers and preferred styles, Roman sought to make a version of the wines he loved. View all Clarendon Hills Wines About McLaren Vale
View a map of McLaren Vale wineriesMcLaren Vale is home to the oldest Australian vineyard, with grapes planted in 1838. It's a coastal area with the Indian Ocean bordering the west, which contributes a cooling factor that prevents the grapes from getting too hot. In all, the climate is a perfect one for the vines.
Notable Facts
In McLaren Vale, there are vines as far as the eye can see. As in other parts of Australia, Shiraz and Grenache are the most-planted grapes of the region. While red rules, whites are able to hold their own here too. With the warm yet reasonable Mediterranean climate, white grapes like Chardonnay, Semillon and even some Sauvignon Blanc grow well. The wines are round and smooth and the producers in the region are excellent.About Australia
Like the United States, which is about the same size, Australia's winemaking regions are huddled into one or two pockets of the country. The state of South Australia, which produces about 60% of the country's wine, also has the most wineries and sub-regions, including McLaren Vale, Clare Valley, Coonawarra and Barossa Valley. New South Wales is home to the Hunter Valley, while the smaller, southern state of Victoria is best known for theYarra Valley. Head way west to the very large state of Western Australia and you'll find the tiny region of Margaret River at the southern tip. -

I was disappointed with this wine. Clarendon Hills have great wines but the bottle I opened was thin to no legs, extremely sweet like a dessert wine - not a full bodied syrah. Hope the one bottle was an anomaly - I will give the others some time.

Contact your Congress people to support this bill on Parkinson's
this from Steve...not me but the one below. Hello, Let
me introduce myself. I am Steve Fiscus a Vietnam Veteran.
I severed with the United States Marine Corp at the Chu Lai Air base with the 1st Marine Air Wing, MAG-13, MABS-13.
We were all exposed to Agent Orange during our tour of duty there. I found out in 2000 that I have Parkinson Disease. I filed
a claim in 2001 and was naturally turn down, because it was not recognized as being cause by Agent Orange. Within
the last year or two, there have been two cases won in favor of the Veteran that the Veterans Parkinson Disease was caused
by Agent Orange and/or other chemicals. The government says these are individual cases and they have nothing to do with other
cases out there. I feel if we fight this as a group we will have much more power to get the government to recognize Agent
Orange can cause Parkinson Disease. What
I am asking today is that you get the word out to as many people as can and give them this information. If they feel that
they want to get on board with this battle feel free to give them my Email or phone number. I
am sending a long some attachments of the rulings and some very interesting research results. Thank you for your help. Together
we will win this battle. Semper
Fi, Steve

324 Raritan Avenue, Suite 111, Highland Park, New Jersey 08904
Managing our frustrations, irritations, upsets, and angry communication is a major challenge for men and women, children, and teens. Women's anger is often sublimated as anxiety and incorrectly treated as such. I am interested in helping empower people to work through their anger and transform it into emotional strength. After working through anger issues, clients often report unexpected benefits, including more fulfilling relationships and financial success. Once the anger is overcome and clients develop skills to cope with everyday annoyances, they find themselves able to reach goals that had been thus far unattainable.
365 Park Avenue, Scotch Plains, New Jersey 07076
At times, we all express anger – it is a normal human emotion. It's when we are constantly feeling angry, blowing up at loved ones or saying hurtful things, where we should proactively learn what is at the route of our anger. It is common for us to try "to get over something" when we are not "over it", leaving things unsettled right below the surface. Many times what is beneath that anger is sadness, fear, and hurt. I help people identify and learn what is the source of their anger and how to genuinely express themselves from the heart. If you have been engaging in physically abusive/aggressive behavior, please seek help from a Family Violence Intervention Program.
347 Lincoln Avenue East, Cranford, New Jersey 07016
I can help you learn how to manage your anger. Often anger is covering deeper feelings such as heartbreak, helplessness and loneliness. I can teach you a three-step anger process that can help you take personal responsibility for your angry feelings and learn what feelings you may be avoiding with your anger and, how you might be using anger to try to control others. Also how to know if you are really angry at yourself for maybe not setting a healthy boundary with someone and instead project your anger onto others.
111 Quimby Street , Westfield, New Jersey 07090
Anger is an emotion that often viewed as an emotion to avoid or suppress. In my view, however, anger -- just like other emotion -- serves as an indicator as to how we really feel about a person or situation. In working with clients on anger-issues I encourage -- not the suppression of anger -- but rather the appropriate expression of it. The goal is to help clients own and feel their own anger and to use it in ways that helps advance their understanding of themselves and those who mean the most to them.

Hell is Home Lyrics
Artist: Judas Priest
Album: Demolition
Written by GLENN TIPTON & K.K. DOWNING
You're looking at me why
Sort of like a leper vibe
Okay for your kind
But it's too good for me
And a hey I know I'm
Never gonna qualify
For all the bullshit
Of your social degrees
Oh look down your noses at me
Hating my identity
Oh but that don't mean a damn thing you see
'Cause down here in hell everybody loves me
Hey I know I'm anti-social
'Cause you act like I'm infected
With some atrocity
And though I know I'm
Every bit the same inside
My face don't fit
It's like I've got some disease
Oh you keep your face turned away
To strip me of identity
Oh still got my fortune and fame
'Cause down here in Hell everyone knows my name
Hell is home to me
Might as well be
I like it here and no-one else invited me
Hell is home to me
It has to be ('cause Jesus Christ)
Nobody else invited me
Now I belong
I found my home
'Cause even though I know things won't
Get any better, they can certainly never get much worse
Say my whole life I've always been disliked
Ignored unless you're spitting insults at me
And I don't know why you felt so justified
In all the degradation that you dished on me
Oh! Now my status has changed
And you've got yourself to blame
Oh! I'll grab all the attention I crave
Now I'm running Hell and Heaven won't be the same

sensible numbers assessment.docx - Section 3: Informal Assessment
Our Understanding of Numbers
Lesson 6 of 6
Objective: SWBAT demonstrate an understanding of place value to 100 and an understanding of the terms greater than and less than.
Warm Up
Students are presented with a problem that uses some of the terms we have been talking about for the last couple of weeks: I am greater than 50. I have a 2 in the ones place. I have the digit 9 in my number. I am less than 108. I am a 2 digit number. What number am I?
I read the clues to the students to insure that lower readers have equal opportunity to solve the problem as higher readers. Processing language may also be difficult for some students so I write as I talk, I am greater than 50 (write >50, I have a 2 in the ones place (HTO - my students know this stands for Hundreds Tens Ones - you could also write out the words as you say them), I have the digit 9 in my number - write a 9 above the HTO. I am less than 108 write <108. I am a two digit number, erase the H from HTO)
I give students time to work on the problem independently while I circulate around the room supporting students and checking on progress with the problem. Next I ask for volunteers to explain how they arrived at an answer.
When I first presented the problem several students looked at the problem and began to whine, "It is too hard." (These are the students who usually find math easy because they can complete computation equations.) We talked about at least trying and maybe finding part of the answer. I pointed out the individual parts of the clues to students and asked them if they could possibly identify one of the digits, or know how many digits were in the number? This helped them to feel that they could be somewhat successful.
I presented a second similar problem after we talked through the first problem and students felt more willing to try.
The Common Core standards are directed at helping students to become thinkers in math. It moves away from rote repetition towards deeper understanding. This exercise encouraged deeper thinking, which required perseverance to solve (MP1).
The students are introduced to a new game to practice, Partners of Ten. I invite students to walk to the rug while they count to 30. I have them sit so everyone can see an then I demonstrate by playing part of a round with one student as my partner, while the remaining students watch.
I take a deck of cards with only the cards 0 - 9 (I use a math deck, but if you have regular cards you will use 1 - 9). We deal so that each of us has 5 cards. The remainder of the cards are placed face down in the center. I tell students that the game is like Go Fish except that this time they will be looking for the Ten's partner for the card in their hand. I refer to the Ten's Rhyme on the board and tell them they can use it to help them remember what partner they are looking for.
I ask my partner for a 7 (I am holding a three). He says Go Fish and then he asks me for a 6 (he has the 4). I hand him my 6. Play continues until all the cards are used up.
Students may pick up a card from the draw pile if they run out of cards in their hand.
I am looking for students to use precision when thinking about partners of 10. They need to remember which numbers go together to get to 10. They need to figure out the exact number for each card they have by counting up to ten, using the number line or number grid posted on the wall, using the number grids on their desks, or by using their fingers. Attending to precision to really learn the partners of ten is important here. (MP6)
Informal Assessment
This is an informal assessment of the student's understanding of the concepts of digit, greater than, less than and using blank number lines and building with base 10 blocks. Here is the sensible numbers assessment. These are the concepts that provide a foundation of the concept of number that will lead to fluency with adding and subtracting using place value later on.
I hand out the paper and pencil sheet that has both base 10 numbers problems and blank number line problems. I also put out base 10 blocks and number lines for students to use. Together we read the problems and then I ask students to fill in what they believe to be the best way to solve the problem.
I allow students time to solve the problems on their own (to make sense of the problems and persevere in solving them (MP1). I circulate around the room to provide support to students who are struggling. I work with small groups of students who need help counting on the number line- Struggling Students. At the end of the time I collect the student work so I can evaluate it and determine next steps. Students who finish early are encouraged to use the IPADs to practice math facts. There may also be students who do not finish before the math period is over but this too provides me with formative information about what they need to work on.

The Shaikh are a Muslim community found in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India. They are part of the larger Shaikh community of South Asia. Quite a few Shaikh have immigrated to Pakistan, where they form an important element in the Urdu speaking community while some of them moved to Uttar Pradesh and Bihar from the states of Punjab and Haryana either during or before the independence of India and Pakistan. They are also known as Punjabi Shaikh. Common surnames used by the community include: Sayyid, Quraishi, Osmani, Siddiqui, Ansari and Shaikh.[2]
History and origin[edit]
Shaikh is a word or honorific term in the Arabic language that literally means "elder." It is commonly used to designate an elder of a tribe, a revered wise man, or an Islamic scholar. In the context of Uttar Pradesh, the title Shaikh signifies actual or claimed Arab descent and connotes a status group. The Shaikh do not constitute a single homegenous community, but represent instead a congeries of a large number of separate sub-groups. For example, the Shaikhs are divided into a number of sub-groups, referred to as biradaris, based on descent and source of origin and their members not only identify themselves as members of separate groups, but are strictly endogamous. Examples of important Shaikh biradaris are the Qidwai((Siddiqui)), found in Barabanki,Farrukhabad,Kannauj, District, Grand Shaikhs belonging to Allahabad and Behlim found mainly in Bulandshahr District.[3] The most members of Kayastha community converted to Islam and adopted the Shaikh title. The Muslim Kayasths use Siddiqui, Maniharzada as their surnames, and consider themselves belonging to the Shaikh community.[4]
Throughout the history of the Delhi Sultanate and its successor the Mughal Empire in South Asia, Muslim technocrats, bureaucrats, soldiers, traders, scientists, architects, teachers, theologians and Sufis flocked from the rest of the Muslim world, and the region that now forms Uttar Pradesh was the centre of Islamic power in India. Over time, the name Shaikh was given to these Muslim families, many of whom were settled in fortified Muslim settlements, known as qasbas. They played a key role in the early Islamic history of Uttar Pradesh, serving as courtiers and administrators for the Delhi Sultanate and later Mughal rulers. Often these early settlers from the Central Asia were granted jagirs (estates), and were the earliest Muslim colonists in the region. One such community of early Shaikh colonists are the Qidwai, whose ancestor was Qazi Qidwa, a son of the Sultans of Rum, in what is now modern Turkey. The Qazi is said to have been sent him to the Awadh region to spread Islam, where he is said to have won over fifty villages to Islam. These fifty villages were latter awarded to him, and the region became known as Qidwara.[2] According to another tradition, Kazi Kidwa is said have defeated a local ruler in the Awadh region by the name of Raja Jagdeopur. This Raja was said to have belonged to the aboriginal Bhar community. The original settlement of the tribe was Juggaur in Lucknow district, from where they spread to Barabanki District.[5] These early colonists were often required to make converts, and these converts often adopted the clan name of those at whose hand they accepted Islam, and this led to a substantial growth in the Shaikh community.[2]
Many Shaikh families claim descent from the Sahaba of Mohammad or directly from Muhammad.
Their sub-divisions include:[6]
Basically Shaikh community descend from the Quraish tribe of Arabia which is the tribe of Muhammad. This simply means that Muhammad was Quraishi and so are his descendants. In the same way all the Rashidun Caliphs were Quraishi and so are their descendants. Shaikh or Quraishi are broader terms which includes Sayyid, Siddiqui, Osmani, Abbasi and Quraishi communities. So the families descending from Muhammad use Sayyid as family name, whereas families descending from Abu Bakr As-Siddiq and Caliph Uthman use Siddiqui and Osmani as family names respectively in order to show as to whom exactly they descend from among the Quraish.
The family name Shaikh is also used by many Muslim families of Brahmin, Kayastha and Rajput ancestry.
Family Name | Ancestor or Descent | Distribution |
Sayyid | Majority are from Shia sect and trace their roots Iran Throughout Uttar Pradesh | |
Abbasi | claim descent from 'Abbas ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib, the uncle of the Muhammad | They are found throughout Uttar Pradesh, with major settlements in Lakhimpur Kheri and Kakori |
Zamindara or Azmi | Central Asian Turks, Mongol, Pathan and those converts from Rajputs and Brahmin groups in Azamgarh | Found in Azamgarh and Jaunpur Districts |
Present circumstances[edit]
Historically the Shaikh of Awadh were substantial landowners, often absentees, and while those of Rohilkhand and the Doab were small scale farmers. In the urban townships, Shaikh families served as priests, teachers and administrators, with the British colonial authorities given the community a preference in recruitment. The independence and partition of India in 1947 was traumatic for the community, with many families becoming divided, with some members moved to Pakistan. This was followed by the abolishment of the zamindari system, where land was redistributed to those who till the land.
The Shaikh of Uttar Pradesh are Sunni. They are fairly widely distributed found in almost all the districts of the state. In the urban areas, Shaikh often live in their own quarters, while they tend to live in their own villages, rarely in multi-clan villages. In western Rohilkhand, particularly in Bijnor and Jyotiba Phule where they make a quarter of the population. As all the Shaikh, Siddiqui, Osmani, Abbasi and Sayyid communities descend from different individuals belonging from the same tribe Quraish so basically all are Quraishi. This Quraishi community use their direct ancestor's name in order to give their exact identity. Throughout history one can find countless examples of these communities intermarrying with each other. There is still a marked preference of marrying with close kin, and they practice both parallel cousin and cross cousin marriages. In their old settlements, often extended families live in close proximity. But as many have begun to migrate to the large urban centres like Delhi or Mumbai, there sense of corporate identity is breaking down, with marriages into the wider Muslim community, with a similar process occurring in Pakistan.[7]
Their primary occupation of the rural Shaikh is still cultivation. The Shaikh cultivate wheat, paddy, maize, sorghum, sugar cane, pulses and vegetables. A few also have mango, guava, and banana orchards. Those of western Uttar Pradesh have benefited from the changes brought about the Green Revolution, while those in the east have seen a decline in their living standards, especially the large taluqdar families.[7]

The face-off between the Delhi police team and the officers of the Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS), both on the trail of two July 13 triple blasts suspects holed up in Byculla, turned ugly after a Delhi cop stationed outside the suspects' rented house threatened to shoot an ATS officer if he tried to nab them.
The build-up to the spat began after a phone call was intercepted by the two agencies in the first week of January. Waqqas, said to have planted the bombs at Opera House and Zaveri Bazaar, had called landlady Rubina Qureshi to tell her that he will come to collect the remaining Rs84,000 rent deposit between January 10 and 12.
This prompted the agencies to go on an overdrive and plant their sleuths and spotters to identify the accused. The Delhi police had a slender advantage as they had been camping in the area since December on the basis of information provided by a key conduit, Naquee Ahmed, who had helped Waqqas and his accomplice Tabrez rent the flat.
At the same time, the ATS, armed with CCTV images of Waqqas and Tabrez, along with their spotters, sent an inspector and four constables to keep a watch on the house. This irked the Delhi police officer, who asked the ATS inspector to leave the area. When the ATS officer protested, the Delhi police officer allegedly said, "Agar tune haath dala, toh mein goli maar doonga (If you put your hand [on the accused], I will shoot you)."
This triggered a volley of abuses between senior ATS officers and the Delhi police officer, and the ATS summoned about 300 of its men to keep a watch on Habib building, and to block all exit points from Mumbai.
The Delhi police officer finally climbed down, and sought to make peace. A highly-placed official in Mumbai police said, "No police force is going to take it very kindly if its officer is threatened to be shot."

Sigmoidoscopy is a procedure where a doctor or nurse looks into the rectum and sigmoid colon, using an instrument called a sigmoidoscope.
Note: the information below is a general guide only. The arrangements and the way tests are performed, may vary between different hospitals. Always follow the instructions given by your doctor or local hospital.
What is a sigmoidoscopy?
The sigmoid colon is the final portion of the bowel that is joined to the rectum. A sigmoidoscope is a small tube with an attached light source about the thickness of your finger. An operator - a doctor or nurse - inserts the sigmoidoscope into the back passage (anus) and pushes it slowly into the rectum and sigmoid colon. This allows the doctor or nurse to see the lining of the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure is not usually painful but it may be a little uncomfortable.
There are two types of sigmoidoscope that can be used. The most commonly used is the flexible sigmoidoscope. This instrument allows your doctor to see around bends in the colon. A flexible sigmoidoscope gives doctors a better view of the lower colon and usually makes the examination more comfortable.
The rigid sigmoidoscope has generally been replaced by the flexible version and is now used less often. It allows your doctor to look into the rectum and the bottom part of the colon but it does not reach as far into the colon as the flexible sigmoidoscope.
What is a sigmoidoscopy used for?
Sigmoidoscopy can be used to investigate the cause of bleeding or pain from the back passage. Your doctor may also suggest this test if you have various other bowel-related symptoms. The test can also look for evidence of inflammation or cancer of the rectum and lower colon. Sigmoidoscopy can also be used to remove small fleshy lumps (polyps) that can be found in the colon and take samples of tissue (biopsy) for analysis. This is done by passing a thin 'grabbing' instrument down a side channel of the sigmoidoscope.
What should I do to prepare for sigmoidoscopy?
For a doctor or nurse to obtain a clear view, your rectum and lower colon need to be empty of stools (faeces). You should be given detailed instructions on how to clear your bowel before you have a sigmoidoscopy. This is usually by taking powerful laxatives for a day or two, or by using one or two enemas prior to the procedure. A commonly used laxative to clear the bowel is called Picolax®.
A common plan is:
- On the day before the procedure - take one Picolax® sachet (by mouth) at 8 am and one at 6 pm. Read the instructions carefully on the Picolax® sachet on how much water to add.
- For 12 hours before the procedure - have fluids only (no solids in your diet) but you can eat a normal light breakfast on the morning just before the procedure.
- Sometimes you will be given an enema on arrival in the hospital to clear the very bottom of the colon of faeces.
The test itself
This test takes just a few minutes. Usually you do not need an anaesthetic or sedation. You wear a hospital gown so that the lower half of your body is exposed. You will be asked to lie on your left side with your knees drawn up toward your chest.
First the doctor or nurse will gently insert a gloved and lubricated finger (or fingers) into the rectum to check for blockage and to widen the back passage (anus). Then the sigmoidoscope will be inserted and gently pushed further into the rectum and colon. Air is gently pumped through the sigmoidoscope to help viewing. This can cause you to feel bloated and uncomfortable and give you an urge to move your bowels (defecate). As the sigmoidoscope is slowly removed, the lining of the bowel is carefully examined.
A small sample (biopsy) of bowel lining may be taken during the procedure. The sample is sent to the laboratory to be looked at under the microscope. It may also be tested for various conditions that can affect the bowel.
Are there any side-effects or complications from a sigmoidoscopy?
Most sigmoidoscopies are done without any problem. Some people have some crampy pains and excess wind after the procedure.
You may also have leakage of liquid accompanied by gas for up to 24 hours after taking the last dose of laxatives. You should arrange your work/social activities following a sigmoidoscopy with this in mind.
Occasionally, the sigmoidoscope causes some damage to the rectum or colon. This may cause bleeding, infection and (rarely) a hole (perforation) in the colon. If any of the following occur within 48 hours after a sigmoidoscopy, consult a doctor immediately:
- Severe tummy (abdominal) pain.
- Bloody bowel movements or rectal bleeding.
- Raised temperature (fever).
Screening for bowel (colorectal) cancer with flexible sigmoidoscopy
It has been proposed that a routine flexible sigmoidoscopy test should be offered to all older adults to screen for bowel cancer. This is because most bowel small fleshy lumps (polyps) and colorectal cancers develop in the rectum, sigmoid colon or lower descending colon. Bowel (colonic) polyps are small non-cancerous (benign) growths on the inside lining of the colon or rectum. They are common in older people. They usually cause no symptoms or problems. However, if a polyp is found, it is usually removed. This is because there is a small risk of a colonic polyp developing into a bowel cancer after several years.
The results of a large UK research study were published in 2010. The study found that people who had one routine flexible sigmoidoscopy between the ages of 55 and 64 had a reduced risk of developing colorectal cancer by about a third. This was because any polyps that were found during the test were removed. Also, the test can detect early colorectal cancers that have not yet caused symptoms.
In October 2010 the Government announced that £60 million would be spent to fund a new flexible sigmoidoscopy screening programme for people in England aged over 55 years. People in England between the ages of 55-60 can request flexible sigmoidoscopy screening. This is in addition to the existing NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme. Details of this are available on the NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme website (see references below). As of March 2015, about two thirds of screening centres were beginning to offer this test to those aged 55 years. If you are registered with a GP and living in an area where the test is offered, you should automatically be sent an invitation.
Note: this has still to be rolled out as a national programme in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland where the faecal occult blood (FOB) test is currently the main screening programme for bowel cancer, although small pilot programmes for flexible sigmoidoscopy screening are currently being assessed.

Naturopathic medicine is a natural and holistic approach to healthcare that centers on treating the whole person rather than just the disease. As Naturopathic Doctors, the doctors at Be Well Clinic are among the highest trained health practitioners in the field of natural medicine. Naturopathic doctors complete a rigorous four-year postgraduate medical degree program and are awarded a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine (NMD or ND). In addition to a standard medical curriculum, ND's are required to complete training in natural and holistic therapies such as clinical nutrition, homeopathy, botanical medicine, hydrotherapy, and counseling. After passing national board exams, they are licensed to perform natural primary care medicine in a growing number of states.
There are a variety of treatment modalities employed by Be Well doctors to support your body on it's journey back to health. During the course of your care, your doctor may employ one or all of these methods in an attempt to support your body's innate healing and detoxification mechanisms:
Botanical Medicine: The use of plants as medicine is one of the more ancient forms of healing known to humankind. Botanical medicine is the use of plants to promote health and treat illness and imbalances in the body.
Clinical Nutrition: There is perhaps no more important therapy than diet. The nutritional choices we make are the single most controllable aspect of our health and is more accurately described as medicine we take 3 times a day. Our doctors offer individualized dietary assessments with concrete suggestions on ways to improve the type and quality of foods you are eating. They use state of the art laboratory testing to accurately identify your food allergies and sensitivities, and work to support your body and lifestyle as you learn to integrate suggested changes into your daily life.
Lifestyle Coaching: There are so many ways in which the world around us acts against our achievement of health and wellness. Our environment is no longer the pristine, natural resource it once was and as such, our body's have to continually struggle in order to maintain balance. In any significant healing process there comes a point where we must choose to either change how we live and heal, or stay the same. When we awaken to what our body and mind need to heal, it changes our lives.
Clinical Detoxification: Numerous different protocols are available to help reduce some of the toxic burden inherent in today's lifestyle.
Homeopathy: Based on the Hippocratic principle that 'like cures like', homeopathy is a powerful energetic form of medicine that matches the vibrational patterns of an individual with the most resonant homeopathic remedy.
Biotherapeutic drainage: A form of homeopathy, biotherapeutic drainage is a gentle yet very deep healing modality. Different than a cleanse or detoxification protocol, biotherapeutic drainage works much deeper, on both a cellular and energetic level to enhance the natural routes of elimination so proper functioning of cells, organs, and body systems can be restored.
First Office Visit
During this 75-90 minute visit, your doctor will meet with you to obtain information regarding your past medical history, your current health concerns and goals, as well as your diet and lifestyle. She will go over any labs that you've had done in the past year and any supplements and/or medications you're currently taking. In addition to creating a treatment protocol for your current health issues during this visit, your doctor will also assess your risk factors for developing disease and create a treatment plan for prevention (ie. heart disease, breast cancer, osteoporosis, diabetes, etc.). New labs may be ordered, as needed.
Laboratory Assessment
Please bring a copy of any recent medical laboratory tests to your first visit. The doctor may recommend that additional lab tests be performed, such as:
- Hormone testing
- Neurotransmitter testing
- Food intolerance testing
- 25-OH Vitamin D testing
- Digestive and stool analysis
- Genetic testing
Follow-up Visits
The first follow-up appointment is generally 4-6 weeks after your first office visit and lasts 60 minutes. At this time, your doctor will go over the results of any new lab work that has been ordered, as well as check in with you to see how your current treatment plan is going. Based on the new labs and how you're progressing, your individualized protocol will be fine-tuned. At this time the need for future follow-up appointments will be established. Patients are often surprised at how well they're feeling just 4 weeks after beginning their treatment protocol.
Acute Office Visits
Acute office visits are for concerns that need immediate attention but are non-emergency situations (i.e. flu-like symptoms, ear infections, neck/back pain, bladder infections, lung infections, etc.). The visit includes an intake and any necessary physical exam. A treatment protocol will be administered on the day of the visit.
Phone consultations
Follow-up phone consultations are an option to accommodate busy schedules or people who live outside of the Twin Cities metro area. An initial visit in person is required first.
New patient appointment: $270 for 75-90 min.
Laboratory testing: cost varies depending on test.
Follow-Up ND visits: $150 per hour (typically 45-60 minutes). Cost will depend on the amount of time the visit actually takes.
Acute office visits: $150 per hour (typically 30-45 minutes). Cost will depend on the amount of time the visit actually takes.
Phone consultations: $150 per hour. Cost will depend on the amount of time the consult actually takes with a 15-minute minimum charge.
Natural medicines or supplements: cost varies.
