I am planning on graduation in May 2015. I want a Spring graduation because I fully intend to attend and work/weather could be a factor in the Winter. Therefore, I need to double up one semester. I have two options:
1. Double up in Spring 2015 by taking an elective plus the portfolio course. This is not my desired choice. I would like my last semester to be dedicated to completing my portfolio. I wouldn't want another course to distract me. If there is anyone who has taken the portfolio course with another course and could provide insight, please do.
2. Double up in Spring 2014. This would allow me to focus solely on the portfolio the next year. However, I work full-time and know that the time commitment of two classes would be enormous (especially if they required a lot of reading; I prefer the more activity heavy courses). Thus, I would like anyone who has taken the following courses to provide insight into them to help me decide the courses best for me.
|506: Graphic Design for Learning
|511: Interactive Courseware Design
|513: Multimedia
|532: Educational Games and Simulations
|541: Integrating Technology into the Classroom Curriculum
|597: Introduction to Edutainment
Hi Joe,
Of the classes you listed, I have only taken 532, but I would think this would be a good class to double-up with another class this spring for several reasons (assuming the class has the same format as last year).
1. It's fun! There are not too many classes where playing games is considered conducting research. You will not mind staying up late to do your homework.
2. The class is run like a game in that you accumulate points based on completing assignments or "quests" of your choice. There aren't too many assignment or "quests" that have to be done by a particular due date. You goal is to obtain the number of points necesssary to reach the rank (grade) you are aiming for by the end of the class. If one week you are busy with work and other assignments from another class, then you can just choose to do quests that are a little less involved. When you have more time on your hands, you can focus on some of the bigger quests.
3. It's fun! (Just had to emphasize this again.)
4. It is co-taught by Dr. Haskell and Dr. David Gibson. I liked have two instructors with differing experiences/backgrounds running the class. Both provided excellent feedback on assignments and made for a very enriching learning environment.
The only consideration is that there are required synchronous meetings one night a week in Second Life, so you would need to make sure your schedule allows you to attend those.
Again, this is how the class was conducted last year. You might want to contact Dr. Haskell to see if it will be run in a similar fashion this year.
Hope this helps,
Hi, Joe,
I took 4 of these classes and loved them. At the time I did 597: Edutainment (Spring 2011, I think) I was taking two other classes at a community college online so I was kept very busy. Edutainment required a bit of reading and I think I wrote some of my favorite papers for that class. 506 and 511 are as time consuming as you make them to be. I saw many of my peers do what seemed like minimal work and get through the class. I have no clue what their grades were, nor do I know if that matters to you. For both 506 and 511 I worked my hiney off and even though I may have come to tears at one point, these were among the best classes I've ever taken. I am fairly certain I got my current job because of what I learned in 511. 513 is worth every minute of it, too. Since I had already taken 506 and 511, 513 went very smoothly for me. The reading was not too much of a challenge because of the readings for 506 and 511. I honestly don't remember much reading for 511. It was more of a struggle to learn how to come to terms with Flash. If you have a clue about how to use Flash, then 511 will be a breeze for you.
You can't go wrong with any of those classes. I do not recommend taking 506 and 511 at the same time unless you really like using Adobe software to create things. I also recommend taking them before the Portfolio class so you can work on revising a project for the Portfolio instead of creating one from scratch and hoping it is satisfactory.
From what I understand, it is highly recommended you do the Portfolio course on its own, but that depends on the person, I suppose. I'm doing the Portfolio in the spring and at the moment it is my only class from any online school. Now that I have a job, I'm cutting back to 1 class per semester.
Are you already planning to take a class over the summer? I can't tell from your description if you plan to use summertime for a class. You may also want to be careful which course you choose to do during the summer because they really do go twice as fast as the normal semester.
I'm not sure this helps because my situation is not a normal one and I'm not a normal person, so my point of view may be totally whacked. All of the courses you listed that I have taken were worth every minute of my time they took out of my day. None of them were easy or not time consuming. Edutainment required both reading, writing, and projects. 506 and 511 were more Adobe based projects than intensive reading. 513 was more project based than lots of reading, too.
Good luck with this decision. Is spring 2016 out of the question?
I am working toward a district administration certificate/Masters, but I want to take some design classes. If you had to choose between 511 and 513 for laying a foundation and creating some great curriculum for a math class, which would you choose?
I have taken 2 courses each semester except for my first semester. I have found it very challenging as I work full-time at a university in instructional technology. However, I can say that it has not been impossible. I have completed the program in 2 years. I am taking 522 and Portfolio at this time. While it is not ideal, it's not impossible either. If you have kept great records of your work to use in the portfolio, you should be fine.
I did take 541 and 597. Both are very active courses, but could easily be taken while completing portfolio.
I hope that helps a little.
Hi Joseph! Like everyone has said it definitely depends on the person, but I have actually taken 3 classes every semester and work full time. (I'm gone 11 hrs a day) I don't have kids, but I do have a husband. It has been stressfull at times, but not impossible. I have taken some of those classes and I think 513 is by far the best class to take. Professor Hall is great! I think it's the perfect class to take with another class. There is not a ton of reading and its mainly multimedia creations and projects. Its very doable. Hope this helps! Good Luck! Feel free to email me if you want to know specifics. email@example.com
Emily- Did you ever take 3 classes in the summer?
I will lend some advice from a professor's perspective: Examine your work, family, and civic obligations very, very closely. Doing two classes in a semester is essentially the same as working a part-time job. There is a lot riding on your portfolio, so be certain you have time to do it. Rushing through simply to "get done" may not be worth the stress.
Stacie asked about doing three courses during the summer. I personally highly recommend against this as each course is already crammed into 8 weeks. I have had students only taking two summer courses tell me it was way, way too much for them.
Remember, just because our courses are online and "convenient / flexible," does not mean the work can be crammed into the corners of life. One really must make a conscientious commitment to "class time" despite not having to come to campus. When one considers that we expect students to work 9-12 hours per week per course, those add up quickly - esp. in the summer.
Good luck!
Funny, if you read all of our comments we should reflect about OUR online students. The same advice Dr Perkins stated applies, students need to make real time to do online work, not just cram it in when one has time. This is by far the biggest reason for drops in my online classroom. Students don't realize the committment of time needed.
In addition, most of us agree, we enjoyed the interactive courses such as Multimedia the most. It seems we are no different than our online students once again, we all enjoy less reading and more doing...
Remember this when you design your courses in the future...

Obama, Geithner Target Loan Help To Hardest-Hit Communities
Nationwide, about 210 banks, thrifts and credit unions will be eligible to receive money from the program. How many of these institutions will take advantage of it is unclear, but administration officials indicated they are hoping for widespread buy-in.
Secretary Geithner began consulting last October with members of Congress and officers of community banks, thrifts and credit unions that focus on low- and moderate-income communities, according to administration officials. Based on the feedback Geithner received, he realized that different terms would be needed for small community banks, thrifts and credit unions.
The Treasury Department expects these funds to be used by small businesses, as well as for community needs such as child care centers, charter schools and housing. This program is separate from the $30 billion small business program announced earlier this week.
Administration officials explained during Wednesday's briefing that the program will have five components:
- Capital will be available at a 2% rate to eligible banks and thrifts. They can apply for capital equaling up to 5% of their risk-weighted assets.
- Credit unions will be eligible for capital at the 2% rate, but only up to 3.5% of total assets.
- Community development financial institutions will need to raise private capital to qualify for the program, and the private capital must be junior to the Treasury capital.
- Community development financial institutions can transfer the money they've already taken under original TARP terms to these more favorable terms. Original TARP funds required dividend payments of 5%.
- Community development financial institutions will not be required to issue warrants, as were required originally under TARP.
Many of these financial institutions have been serving their communities for decades, providing loans when no one else would lend in those areas. Now, they can play a critical role in making sure their communities aren't left behind as the country recovers from the Great Recession.

|Single by Slipknot
|from the album All Hope Is Gone
|July 7, 2008
|CD 5", Digital single
|February 2008–June 2008 at Sound Farm in Jamaica, Iowa
|Alternative metal, groove metal

|Dave Fortman
|Slipknot singles chronology
"Psychosocial" is the second single and fourth track from Slipknot's fourth studio album, All Hope Is Gone which was released August 26 2008.
Music video
The music video for "Psychosocial" was shot at Sound Farm studios in Jamaica, Iowa on June 30, 2008.[1] The shoot was delayed due to an unrelated head injury sustained by turntablist Sid Wilson before the shoot, who was subsequently hospitalized.[2] On July 18, 2008 the video premiered on MTV's FNMTV show,[3] hosted by Pete Wentz. The video, which was directed by Paul Brown,[4] was shot using high-end cameras which shoot 1,000 frames per second and are contrasted with traditional 35 mm hand crank camera equipment.[1] Percussionist Shawn Crahan explains; "we have the most extreme on both ends, with nothing in the middle. That's what the video is, and nobody does that. There's an art form behind it."[1]
During an interview with Kerrang!, guitarist James Root revealed that the video features the burning of the purgatory masks adorned by the band members in the splash teaser photos shown on Slipknot's website, reportedly because the masks represent the band's ego.[5]
The are two versions of the video. One uses the album version of the song, whilst the other uses a much shorter version of the song; excluding the "Limit of the Dead!" lines. This song was nominated to best rock video at the VMA´s 2008.[6]

Court of Appeals Vacates Problematic K2 Decision
New York's highest court recently vacated its decision, upon reargument, in K2 Investment Group, LLC v. American Guarantee & Liability Insurance Co. The new decision concludes that an insurer is not precluded from relying on policy exclusions to limit its indemnification obligations, even though the carrier may have breached its duty to defend. See K2 Inv. Group, LLC v American Guar. & Liab. Ins. Co., __ N.Y.3d __ (Feb.18, 2014).
In K2, the insurer, American Guarantee, refused to defend a legal malpractice claim brought against its insured. A default judgment was entered against the insured which then assigned its rights to the plaintiff, who in turn sought to recover directly from American Guarantee. In its June 2013 decision, the New York Court of Appeals held that American Guarantee was obligated to defend its insured based on the allegations in the complaint, and that by failing to provide a defense, was subsequently barred from relying upon policy exclusions with respect to indemnification. That decision was a significant departure from established precedent of the Court.
Upon reargument, the Court has now vacated its prior K2 decision (June 2013), relying on its position in Servidone Construction Corp. v. Security Insurance Co., that the duty to defend and the duty to indemnify are separate obligations. The Court had concluded in Servidone that even if the insurer breaches its duty to defend, it may still rely upon policy exclusions in contesting its obligation to indemnify the insured. Servidone Constr. Corp. v. Security Ins. Co., 64 N.Y.2d 419 (1985).
In the new K2 decision, the Court placed strong emphasis on the rule of stare decisis, noting that:
When our Court decides a question of insurance law, insurers and insureds alike should ordinarily be entitled to assume that the decision will remain unchanged unless or until the Legislature decides otherwise.
The Court also reiterated its prior position in Lang v. Hanover Insurance Co. and suggested that an insurer should seek a declaratory judgment concerning the duty to defend or indemnify its insured.
One judge dissented based upon a public policy concern that the decision will result in unnecessary and repetitive judicial proceedings by "allowing an insurer to wrongfully abandon its policyholder's defense…". The dissent predicted that this decision will only "prolong final resolution of this matter even further."
The Court's turnabout in K2 appears to be another example of the deference paid to controlling precedent, particularly as the original K2 decision was inconsistent with earlier decisions of the Court. In so doing, the Court preserved the established ability of an insurer to invoke policy exclusions to avoid indemnification based on the facts developed during litigation, even if it did not defend its insured.

Or maybe it's both. Some graffiti can actually enhance an area, turning blank, dingy grey walls into Picasso-esque art motifs; but there is also graffiti that merely intrudes and ruins a once clean, serene well-kept area, look dirty and unkempt.
Maybe it depends on where it appears.
Graffiti in slum and lower income areas can often distract attention away from the squalor, adding an element of serenity and often beauty. But the same graffiti seen in "upper scale", affluent areas gives an entirely different impression: one of slow decay, vandalism and a lowering of values and order. So often it really not the graffiti itself that is the problem, it's where it shows up, and why, that make it a problem.
"Graffiti" has been around ever since the Neanderthals scratched depictions of animals on cave walls, and some graffiti can be but strikingly unique, inventive, evocative and even beautiful. Some art galleries and museums have sponsored "Graffiti Art" shows.
But graffiti also can reflect anger, protest, a lack of order and a rejection of values and laws. Graffiti is vandalism when it is in a place where it doesn't belong, but when applied to a canvas or a blank wall rather than in a poor or derelict neighborhood, it could easily become "art". Some of Picasso's works would pass as "graffiti" if it was painted on a wall of a building rather than on canvas.
The real problem with graffiti is that it isn't "controlled", and that is disturbing to a regulated society. "Art" has rules, "graffiti is free form: nothing is sacred, and anything is allowed.

If I renew by broadband and TV contracts for 18 months, I get to keep BT Sport for free instead of paying £5 per month. Everything stays the same, and I keep any discounts I'm currently receiving (apparently - according to the website, anyway).
But given that I have six months left of my current broadband and TV contracts, does that mean I'll be locked in for another 18 months after that (i.e. two years in total), or just 18 months from now?
I can't find an answer anywhere, and don't fancy the trauma of phoning BT (and not sure I would get the correct answer anyway) - so any help much appreciated. Thanks!
phone the options team on the number already posted 0800800030 there will no trauma as they are uk based if you don't like the offer then don't take it
I phoned the options team a few days ago. Got the same deal as I had before and some extra channels for the same price. All went smoothly. Quite happy and "no trauma".

Leaders Boldon CA could be without regular marksman Lee Seff when they visit Redcar Town this afternoon.
The striker has been a revelation following a transfer in January and has scored in almost every game. Work commitments could cause his absence. Goalkeeper Mark English is an injury doubt but Chris Barrett, Stephen Handy and Craig Rolfe are all able to play.
Stokesley SC will be out to strengthen their championship claims visiting Annfield Plain, but they will have to do so minus Neil Southall, Michael Wilson and Matty Homan. Jon Newton is recovering from a knock sustained the last week.
Birtley Town boss Dave Smith reports that Anthony Cosgrove will definitely play in the crunch top-of-the-table fixture with Windscale, and that he expects Gareth Davison and Paul Scott to come through late fitness tests. Jarrow, who celebrated their first victory last weekend, host Harton & Westoe unable to include Gary Aisbitt. Manager Mick Hutchinson has an injury doubt surrounding Steven Dunn, but Martin Nugent will turn out.
North Shields, desperately need to win at Ryhope CW. Eddie Miller and Dominic Riley miss out, Dominic Graham will undergo a late fitness test and Anthony Robson will return to the midfield. Paul Hamilton is an absentee from the Ryhope CW line-up, but captain Ian Routledge and David Baxter are expected to play at some stage of the game.
New Marske, who are still in the title frame, line up against Barnard Castle Glaxo.
Two ties will be played in the Sunderland Shipowners' Cup. Cleadon SC are at home to Darlington RA in the semi-finals. RA, who have won 11 and drawn one of the last 12 fixtures, are uncertain about the availability of regulars Mark Radmore, Gary Hornsby, Martin Brown and Mark Keenan, but Ian Curry and Paul Freary will play.

General Washington's financial advisor and assistant was a Jewish man by the name of Hyam Salomon. During the cold winter months at Valley Forge when American soldiers were freezing and running out of food, it was Hyam who marshaled all the Jews in America and Europe to provide money in relief aid to these stranded American troops and turned the course of history. Without this help, Washington's Continental Army, and the fate of the American Colonies would have perished before they could have defeated the British.
If you take a one dollar bill out of your pocket and look at the back at the Eagle, the stars above the Eagle's head are in the six point Star of David to honor Jews. If you turn the Eagle upside down you will see a configuration in the likeness of a Menorah....both at the insistence of George Washington who said we should never forget the Jewish people and what they have done in the interest of America.
Israeli-U. S. relations are an important factor in U. S. policy in the Middle East, and Congress has placed considerable importance on the maintenance of a close and supportive relationship.
Lyndon Johnson said:
"The United States and Israel share many common objectives...chief of which is the building of a better world in which every nation can develop its resources and develop them in freedom and peace."
Ronald Reagan was the first President to state explicitly that Israel was a strategic asset to the United States, a belief he expressed even before he was elected: "Only by full appreciation of the critical role the State of Israel plays in our strategic calculus can we build the foundation for thwarting Moscow's designs on territories and resources vital to our security and our national well-being."
Shortly after taking office, George Bush said: "The friendship, the alliance between the United States and Israel is strong and solid, built upon a foundation of shared democratic values, of shared history and heritage, that sustains the life of our two countries. The emotional bond of our people transcends politics. Our strategic cooperation—and I renew today our determination that that go forward—is a source of mutual security."
President Bill Clinton has taken the relationship to another level during his administration. "Our relationship would never vary from its allegiance to the shared values, the shared religious heritage, the shared democratic politics which have made the relationship between the United States and Israel a special—even on occasion a wonderful—relationship."
U.S -Israeli ties strengthened during the second Reagan term. The two countries reached a number of precedent-setting agreements in strategic and defense cooperation. Israel was granted "major non-NATO ally" status that gave it access to expanded weapons systems and opportunities to bid on U. S. defense contracts.
Today, the United States and Israel are the closest of friends and allies. During more than four decades of state-building, Israelis have looked to the United States for inspiration, financial and military assistance, and diplomatic support. Americans, in turn, have viewed Israel with a special appreciation for its successful effort to follow the Western democratic tradition, its remarkable economic development, and its determined struggle against its uncompromising enemies.
The Jewish population in the United States is less than six million; therefore, the political activity of Jews who view strengthening U.S-Israel relations to be in the national interest alone cannot explain the depth of the friendship that exists. Fewer than 3 percent of the population could hardly have such a dramatic influence on American foreign policy. The U.S.-Israel alliance is rooted in shared values.
While it well-known what Israel gets from the U.S it is important to show what the U.S gets in exchange to her support and cooperation with Israel?
The United States and Israel cooperate closely in a number of areas of military activity.
The U.S. and Israel also cooperate jointly on a number of technology development programs.
The Israeli port of Haifa is the main port of call in the eastern Mediterranean for the United States Sixth Fleet.
Israel also provides other logistical and maintenance support for U.S. forces in the region.
The two countries also share intelligence and maintain a joint anti-terrorist working group.
Israeli military equipment in USA use:
* Cornershot kitty- Expose a weapon, expose a lethal threat, without exposing any part of your body.
* ADM-141 TALD (Improved Tactical Air Launched Decoy)- device used to protect U.S. warplanes from enemy fire.
* AGM-142 Have Nap "The Popeye" - a precise bomb which hits specific coordinates
* Unmanned Aerial Vehicles- An Israeli invention, these are now used by the U.S extensively round the world.
* Python missile - A major air to air missile.
* M120 mortar - A 120 mm Mortar developed by Soltam Systems.
* SMAW - An Anti-tank guided missile developed by Israel Military Industries, based on the Israeli B-300.
* Cardom - A 120mm Recoil mortar system using modern electronic navigation, self-positioning, and target acquisition.
* Gabriel missile - A sea skimming Anti-ship missile.
* SIMON breach grenade - A rifle grenade designed to breach through doors.
* LITENING targeting pod - A precision targeting pod designed to increase combat effectiveness of aircraft.
* International MaxxPro - An MRAP armored fighting vehicle.
* Samson Remote Controlled Weapon Station - A Remote weapon system.
* UZI 9mm Submachine Gun: The U.S. Secret Service currently uses this world-renowned automatic weapon.
And so the list goes on...

Learn About The Many Benefits Of A Deep Tissue Massage
When it comes to getting a massage, there are many ones to choose from. A popular option is a deep tissue massage. The unique thing about a deep tissue massage is that due to the techniques used, it can actually help you with a variety of medical issues. From helping to relieve back pain, to reducing chronic pain as the result of fibromyalgia, this type of massage has a myriad of benefits. Here is more information about this type of massage and who it benefits the most.
How Deep Tissue Massage Works
A deep tissue massage is performed by using deep pressure in certain areas of your body. The massage therapist typically asks where your problem areas are first, so they know what areas to focus on. The massage continues getting deeper and deeper as they work out the layers of muscle and connective tissue. As opposed to being a simple massage, this is actually used in massage therapy. It can help realign the deep layers of tissue that often cause chronic pain. The massage techniques can also help to break down adhesions that often form following an injury. This will help to improve mobility and reduce tension in the body.
The Benefits of Deep Tissue Massage
Not only can it be a relaxing massage, but it is therapeutic. This type of massage is ideal for anyone who has had an accident or injury or is suffering from chronic pain. It is excellent for people with fibromyalgia, arthritis, sciatic pain, and piriformis syndrome. In addition, it is beneficial for people who suffer from:
- Neck and shoulder pain
- Upper and lower back pain
- Reduced mobility
- Posture issues
- Muscle tension
- Tennis elbow
- Repetitive strain injury
- Recent injuries
- Muscle spasms
- Post-workout tension
What to Expect From the Massage
During the massage, the massage therapist will use their hands, elbows, forearms, fingertips, and knuckles to get to different parts of your body. Some people do find the deep tissue massage relaxing, but at certain points of the massage, you may feel some soreness. In order to help you find relief from your chronic pain, the massage therapist gets very deep into your muscle and connective tissue. If you are sensitive or have pain in these areas, there could be minor bouts of pain. However, it lasts a short time and the end result is worth it.
Who Should Not Get the Massage
While it is a great massage to get, certain people are not good candidates. If you recently had an injury and have yet to see a doctor, do not automatically get a deep tissue massage. See your doctor first. It is also not recommended if you are pregnant unless recommended by a doctor or performed by a massage therapist experienced in pregnancy massage. If you just had surgery or chemotherapy, talk to your doctor before getting a deep tissue massage.

New Resources in Chinese
At the National Cheng Chi University at Taiwan, Dart Center Country Contact Julia Hsu heads up a research team, consisting largely of students in her Department of Radio and Television, called Trauma News Watch. Besides monitoring traumatic news as the team's name suggests, they have been translating and adapting Dart Center materials for use in Taiwan.
Thanks to the researchers' hard work, journalists can now access the Dart Center's first self-study unit in Chinese.
This resource joins earlier translations of Tragedies and Journalists, the Dart Center's 40-page guide to help journalists, photojournalists and editors report on violence while protecting both victims and themselves. If you read Chinese, you can learn more about the work of Trauma News Watch on their blog.
