New research institute is improving care for kids today and in the years to come
CHoR's research institute is improving care for kids today and in the years to come
"Research is where new ideas come from," said Dr. Henry Rozycki, professor of pediatrics and vice chair for research. "It's also a critical part of our mission to provide exceptional care and helps us attract outstanding physicians and providers."
This summer, we launched the Children's Health Research Institute to encourage research and collaboration between specialists, ultimately making life better for kids by providing the best care today and paving the way for healthy futures.
The goals of the CHRI include bringing investigators together to create integrated projects that are attractive to funders like the National Institutes of Health, creating opportunities for enhanced education and providing patients with opportunities to access the latest advances in care.
With funding from the community, the CHRI builds on the success of the Children's Hospital Foundation Research Fund, which was established in 2014 to improve research among CHoR faculty. Since its inception, the CHF Research Fund has provided nearly $240,000 through more than 30 grants of $10,000 or less. These grants allowed faculty to apply for additional research support, in turn receiving $4.5 million in funding from the NIH, the Department of Defense and other organizations. Research from funded grants has focused on infectious diseases, dental heath, prematurity, and neurological and pulmonary function in children in Virginia, the nation and the world.
Development of the CHRI began four years ago. It currently offers administrative, marketing, and regulatory and grant support for researchers. The institute's five-year goals include increasing external funding from $11 million to $31 million, NIH funding from $1.4 million to more than $6 million, clinical trials and participants by 50%, and publication of academic papers by 50%.
At the end of the day, we conduct research because we know that is how we're going to improve care for children today and for future generations, not just in Central Virginia but worldwide.
Dr. Rozycki
Children's Health Research Institute focus areas
Includes human development, education, linguistics, neurological disorders, psychiatric disorders, rehabilitation sciences
EPIC (emergency, pulmonary, intensive care and cardiology)
Includes prehospital care, pulmonary, cardiology, emergency medicine, NICU, PICU
Health and health care equity
Includes health disparities, social determinant of health, community-engaged research, community provider-engaged research, patient-centered outcomes, health services research
Translational and personalized medicine
Includes diabetes, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease, oncology, transitions in chronic care, mental health, community engagement
"There are many researchers at VCU that are focusing on neurosciences research in children, but these are dispersed across multiple departments. We want to identify collaborative opportunities between the Monroe Park and health system campuses." - Dr. Nicholas Johnson, Neurosciences leader
"We will propose projects that develop and evaluate evidence-based solutions to health differences that are driven largely by social, economic and environmental factors." – Dr. Tegwyn Brickhouse, Health and health care equity leader
"We've always talked about the 'triple threat,' which is taking a question generated from the bedside, taking it back to the research bench and then going back to the bedside. The idea of having one single person do that has shifted over time. We are evolving into a team of collaborative specialists. It's exciting to think about innovations we can bring back to children to improve their lives in multiple ways." - Dr. Bryce Nelson, Translational and personalized medicine leader
"We can work with engineering and pulmonary for a better device to administer aerosols. We can work with music and the NICU to improve brain development in extreme preterm infants. There are multiple ways we can build bridges across divisions within CHoR but also across the School of Medicine and many different schools including nursing, engineering and arts." - Dr. Oliver Karam, EPIC leader

After replacing Fisher, Dutcher guides SDSU back to NCAAs
By Rob DausterMar 14, 2018, 12:13 PM EDT
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Four weeks ago, when San Diego State was 13-10 and in eighth place in the Mountain West Conference, even a berth in the NIT seemed farfetched in the Aztecs' first season under coach Brian Dutcher.
There were rumblings that maybe Dutcher hadn't been the right guy to replace Steve Fisher, even though the longtime loyal lieutenant had been the "head coach in waiting" since 2011.
Then it all changed as Dutcher guided the Aztecs out of the rough stretch and back into the NCAAs for the seventh time in nine seasons.
SDSU has won nine straight games, including a three-game run through the conference tournament to clinch the MWC's automatic berth. The Aztecs beat three higher-seeded teams, including top-seeded and No. 22 Nevada, which they also defeated at home in the final week of the regular season.
One huge boost for the Aztecs was the return of senior guard Trey Kell, who had missed three games with a sprained ankle, including consecutive blowout losses at Nevada and Fresno State.
Then there was Dutcher's unwavering belief in a team that missed the postseason altogether last year, Fisher's 18th and final season leading the Aztecs.
"I told them we were the best team in the conference," Dutcher said after the Aztecs (22-10) drew the 11th seed in the West Regional and a matchup against sixth-seeded Houston (26-7) on Thursday in Wichita, Kansas. "We had to go out there and prove that, not only to ourselves, but to the rest of the conference. We went on an incredible run."
Dutcher has been to the NCAA Tournament 16 times previously, eight as an assistant at Michigan and eight with SDSU. All were at Fisher's side except one, after Fisher had been fired because of the program's involvement with booster Ed Martin. Dutcher was there when Fisher was elevated to interim head coach on the eve of the 1989 NCAA Tournament and led the Wolverines to the championship.
When Fisher was hired by SDSU prior to the 1999-2000 season, he brought Dutcher along as he revived the moribund program. SDSU went to the NCAA tourney eight times under Fisher. The Aztecs went a school-record six straight times from 2010-15, including the school's first two Sweet 16 appearances.
"Just by nature, I'm happiest for the kids," said Dutcher, who never had been a head coach until replacing Fisher. "Because as a coach, maybe if you fall short a year you can always go the next year, the next year, the next year. These kids, they have a four-year opportunity to go the NCAA Tournament. When Trey and Malik (Pope) went their first year, it seemed like, well hell, maybe we'll go three more. As it turned out we got to their senior year and we really had to play well to get them there for their senior year."
Fisher remains a university employee, working on development. Fisher also drives his son, Mark, who has ALS, to and from campus where he remains part of the coaching staff.
Steve Fisher said he's proud of Dutcher's stability and consistency.
"So often when you have some bumps in the road, you tend to jerk the wheel all over the road, and he's had a steady hand on the rudder and the wheel," Fisher said. "He bowed his back. Ten games ago when we got beat by 20 at Nevada, everybody was talking about how bad we were and all of this stuff and he's just steady as a rock. And I think that guided the team through where they were to where they are. … And the team, too. They've done a magnificent job, and he's been the leader of the pack. Good for all of them."
Fisher has gone to every home game and some on the road, including the conference tournament.
"It's different," he said. "It's easier. You sit where I do and you've got all the answers right after the fact. You don't realize how hard it is when you're sitting where I was, for those on the bench. I've been a good fan and I've been a nervous fan with a vested interest.
"We feel that we've got a program, underline program, and we should have an opportunity to compete to get into the NCAA Tournament, and we found a way this year, so it was very nice," Fisher added.
Dutcher sees Steve Fisher every day. During the rough stretch, he said the former coach offered encouragement rather than strategy.
"We usually just say hello," said Dutcher, whose father, Jim, was head coach at Eastern Michigan and Minnesota. "He doesn't want to interject unless I ask him. So he's not up in there closing the door and saying, 'I think I have some advice for you.' All the advice he's given me is 29 years in the making. If I wasn't listening, there's no sense in listening now."

Adam Moriarty — Paul Reynolds Grant Recipient
In the last of our series of profiles on Paul Reynolds Grant recipients, Adam Moriarty shares his experience with us.
Adam says: This grant is a wonderful opportunity for GLAM Sector professionals to invest in their professional development, to grow the depth of our work and to share our own strengths and values.
I was lucky enough to be the 2016 recipient of the Paul Reynolds Grant, I travelled to London for six weeks to visit colleagues in various organisations and to learn more about Linked Open Data and the future of online collections. On the way over, I also stopped in Los Angeles to attend the Museums and the Web conference—a fantastic opportunity to hear from leaders in the field on all things digital. In London, I was hosted by the Research Space team at the British Museum, who are using Linked Data to trial new types of online contextualisation for collections. I used the British Museum as a base to explore collections across the city and to meet up with colleagues from the V&A, British Library, Science Museum and the Wellcome Trust.
What are some of the things you learnt during your time?
At the time of my visit to London, Auckland Museum was working on improving our Collections Online and setting up linked data and an API. This grant meant that I was able to confide our challenges and concerns with colleagues who had either completed similar projects or whose projects were similarly underway. I learnt so much in this time and it was great to hear that large organisations had many of the same issues that we were experiencing, and could sympathise with those that were rather more unique to the values we uphold in New Zealand.
My primary focus was on broadening my technical skills. The Research Space Team helped me to harness free tools such as the 3M and Karma mapping that help take data from source systems and map it to Linked Data standards. During my time on this scholarship, I also started to really understand the wider implications and possibilities of open data, in particular its use in the Wikimedia projects, which is now a focus of mine.
I was also able to share the key finding from my experience at the National Digital Forum in 2017.
How has your internship benefited your career?
Spending time alongside colleagues from the sector internationally gave me a huge insight into the development of the digital museum space. Being able to dive deeper into the workings of digital collections as they are being manifested by the sector leaders was incredibly helpful. The insights and practicalities helped me shape the Collections Online Project I was heading. The realisation of the project, upholding a range of views and values for our rich cultural collections has certainly helped to grow my career.
Equally beneficial though, was the chance the Paul Reynolds Grant gave me to converse with the individual people driving museum digitisation. The relationships built and conversations I had in this time, have inspired a genuine confidence in me that the work done in Aotearoa New Zealand is up amongst the highest standards of the sector worldwide and that we have much to offer in return. It is about working together to develop solutions. The sector is relatively small across the world and we are all joined by a shared passion and belief for what we do.
Would you recommend for others to apply for this opportunity and why?
Totally! It's a great opportunity to step out of your normal work and explore something new.
The LIANZA Paul Reynolds (No Numpties) Grant is worth $5,000.
Applications close May 30, 2019.


It may seem odd to those who follow Keira's antics and know she's in the 90th percentile for height, but we're very familiar with being small in our family. I'm 5'2" and Doug is 5'7". Our families are similar in that the women range on the smaller side of average as do the men, with an exception of a couple tall uncles.
My niece, Abby, has Achondroplasia, a common type of Dwarfism. At 8 years old, she's not much taller than Keira is at 15 months, just a few inches.
Because of her height, people who don't have a lot of contact with Abby have always treated her as though she was much younger. It's a constant source of frustration, not only to her, but to those of us surrounding her. Often, she is viewed as a 4 or 5 year old. People were amazed to see such a tiny baby talking...when she was almost 3.
The complete opposite of Keira, who at 15 months is the same size as several 2 year olds that we know. While that is obviously not as large a gap, the is definitely a difference in the developmental stages. While Keira is very smart (at least in my opinion) and gets into her fair share of mischief, she is at the proper stage for her age. When we are around others with children 2 & 3 years old, people ask the usual questions, "does she do this?" etc, I usually explain that she is only 15 months, and then they remark on how tall she is.
Thanks for the shout out. I really haven't idea how to respond to all the "he's so little" comments. I'm sure it's just as hard on the other side of the spectrum.
Since I've been on both sides (Auntie on one & Mommy on the other), I can tell you I've yet to figure out a response to either. I just shrug or smile and move on.

RFE/RL In The News
"Will Obama Listen to Iran's Bloggers?"
In an op-ed for the "Wall Street Journal," Bret Stephens cites RFE/RL Persian Service (Radio Farda) reports on the suspicious death of Iranian blogger Omid-Reza Mirsayafi. A portion of the article is reprinted below, the full text is available here.
Will Obama Listen to Iran's Bloggers?
Bret Stephens | Wall Street Journal
[...] Mirsayafi's forebodings proved well-justified. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reports that he was taken to the prison hospital shortly before his death with an irregular pulse. "The doctor told [the prison authorities] how to treat him, asked him to send him to a city hospital," Mirsayafi's lawyer told RFE/RL's Radio Farda. "But they ignored the doctor and said [Mirsayafi] was faking his illness. The doctor said, 'his heartbeat is 40 per minute, you can't fake that.' But they sent the doctor out of the room." Prison authorities ruled the death a suicide; Mirsayafi was only 25. [...]

Q: How do I use custom error pages with the Nginx stream module I created a custom .conf file that includes the stream module in order to listen on port 443 and proxy to another server via tcp. It works as expected. However if the proxying server is offline, I want to return a custom error page. I've done this before within the http module but apparently the stream module does not support the error_page directive.
Is there any workaround?

A: I ended up employing a load balancing approach as shown here. The backup weighting makes sure all traffic will initially attempt to route to the first server. If the first server is offline, traffic will be routed to the second server. From there I just created an http server directive to listen on port 9443 and simply added 'index my_error_page.html' within the location block.
stream {
   upstream my_server {
        server x.xxx.xxx.xxx:10443;
        server 127.0.0.1:9443 backup;
   }

   server {
        listen 443;
        proxy_pass my_server;
   }
}

The Prop and its Properties
Talk by John David Rhodes
Introduction by Claudia Peppel
The prop names a category of ubiquity: props are everywhere in cinema. The term, short for property, is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as 'any portable object (now usually other than an article of costume) used in a play, film, etc., as required by the action'. The straightforwardness of this definition, however, belies the strangeness of the prop. The prop begs questions of scale, ambience, contingency, commodification, objecthood, and narration. In the context of narrative cinema, props seem as necessary as actors, sets, and locations. Regarding cinema through the lens of the prop — which is the lens of property — helps us to see how an ontological instrumentality courses through the very nature of the cinematic medium. This talk, which will veer from theory to history to questions of close reading, emerges from Rhodes's recent book on domestic architecture and cinema, Spectacle of Property: The House in American Film (2017). It will show how foregrounding cinema's prop-ness summons into view some of the medium's most curious and most unsettling features.
John David Rhodes is the author and editor of six books, including Spectacle of Property: The House in American Film (2017), Stupendous, Miserable City: Pasolini's Rome (2007), and Taking Place: Location and the Moving Image (2011). He is the Director of the Centre for Film and Screen at the University of Cambridge where he is Reader in Film Studies and Visual Culture. He is a fellow of Corpus Christi College and a founding editor of the journal World Picture.
The lecture is part of the current ICI Lecture Series ERRANS, environ/s. There is hardly a discipline, field, or discourse within the natural and social sciences nor the humanities that hasn't long been touched and transformed by the notions of milieu, environment, or Umwelt. The recent revival and proliferation of ecological discourses can be understood, at least in part, as a response to the increasingly complete immersion in technologically in-formed environments.
The transdisciplinary impact of these new concepts has not yet been captured, nor is it clear that it can be captured, but while the life sciences play a prominent role in them (having adopted, in the 19th century, concepts from physics and transgressed into the social sciences, for example, as racist discourses and social Darwinism), they don't operate as the leading science in this transformation. Instead, this process appears to be a multidirectional, non-hierarchizable, and errant movement, itself constituting a complex ecology of knowledge.
ERRANS environ/s contemplates aspects of this frequently divergent, potentially errant, and certainly ongoing transformation of not only the sciences or cultures of knowledge, but also cultural and artistic production at large. It will investigate the ways in which an attention to environments can have the effect of dissolving boundaries or making them permeable, questioning clear-cut distinctions, undermining naive ontologies, decentring the subject, folding nature and culture, and producing complex political ecologies attuned to far-reaching entanglements.
The event, like all events at the ICI Berlin, is open to the public, free of charge. The audience is presumed to consent to a possible recording on the part of the ICI Berlin. If you would like to attend the event yet might require assistance, please contact Event Management.

Scientists, policymakers meet to ask: What now for post- Cold War science?
STANFORD -- Science may not be broken, but public support for research will break away if physical scientists don't show how their work ties to national needs. That's what Washington insiders and some of the nation's top researchers concluded after a conference sponsored by Stanford and the National Research Council.

The DCM Partnership has undertaken several large master planning exercises and The Lakes in Northampton is one example. The infrastructure design provided serviced sites ready for development of office buildings, the principles of which were established in the planning stage.
Concept architectural design for the main developments was carried out and the offices for Northampton County Council and Shoosmiths project managed by the Practice.
Similar schemes have been undertaken in Taunton for a mixed retail, leisure and office scheme adjacent to J25 on the M5, large industrial schemes in Northampton, Castle Donington and Bedford, and a mixed business park and commercial scheme in Dunfermline.

All about NBA
The Charlotte Hornets are greatly improved this season

Charlotte has a new coach and they look poised to compete in a weak Eastern Conference.
by Zachary Roberts (article) and Parasshuram Shalgar (video)
October 21, 2018 at 12:13 AM October 21, 2018 at 12:13 AM
Kemba Walker scores 39, Hornets survive Heat rally Saturday - Video
Every year Hornets fans say the same thing. "This is the year." I'm guilty of it. I thought last season after drafting Malik Monk, and trading for future Hall-of-Famer Dwight Howard was the year they'd break through. They finished 36-49 and in 10th place in the East. Most years it's the same. When the Hornets signed Lance Stephenson to bolster their playoff chances, they finished 33-49. In 2016, when they signed Nicolas Batum for the max and traded for Marco Belinelli, they finished 36-46. Fast forward to this season.
Charlotte fired head coach Steve Clifford. They fired GM Rich Cho. They traded Dwight Howard away. They let Michael-Carter Williams walk away. Clifford was replaced with Spurs assistant coach James Borrego. Ten-time NBA champion Mitch Kupchak replaced Rich Cho. Charlotte signed veteran Tony Parker and traded for former Hornet Bismack Biyombo. They drafted Miles Bridges and Devontae Graham. Hornets fans started to feel the annual optimism. But here's why this year is different:
Charlotte named James Borrego as head coach to replace Steve Clifford.
He went 4-1 in the preseason and had the Hornets at 2-1 and a missed game-winner from being 3-0. More importantly, the team looks much more cohesive and just better under Borrego. In the opener against Milwaukee, the Hornets trailed by as much as 20 and rallied back and had two chances to win in the final seconds.
They responded by pounding the Orlando Magic 120-88. In Miami, they led by as much as 26 and (in classic Hornets fashion) watched that lead dwindle to 1.
Eventually, Miami tied it before Kemba Walker sunk a free throw with a half a second left on the clock for the win.
Tony Parker has provided a nice veteran presence and a more than capable backup for Kemba Walker. Last season, Kemba Walker had a 12.27 RPM Wins, which estimates the number of wins each player has contributed to his team's win total on the season. He was ahead of Chris Paul, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid in that category.
His backup, Michael Carter-Williams, had a .94 RPM Wins. Walker had a 3.81 Real Plus-Minus, while Michael Carter-Williams had a -1.32.
Rookie Miles Bridges impressed in the Summer League with his athleticism. In limited minutes in the regular season, he has also impressed. He's averaging eight points in 14 minutes of action with four rebounds.
Last season, Malik Monk averaged 13.5 minutes and scored 6.7 points per game, shooting just 36 percent from the field.
There was a concern if Monk would join Hornets busts like Frank Kaminsky, Noah Vonleh, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Adam Morrison. This season, he's shown real improvement. He's averaging 28 minutes per game and scoring 14.5 on about 40 percent shooting.
Kemba Walker, despite recent trade rumors swirling [VIDEO], has steadily improved each season of his NBA career. He averaged 12.1 in his rookie campaign, then 17.7 for his next two.
In 2017, it jumped to 20.9. Then the following season, 23.2. This season, as hard as it may be to believe, he has improved. He's averaging 35.33 points per game and Saturday he became the first NBA player in history to make at least five three-pointers in the first three games of a season. He tied Ray Allen for the most three-pointers made (12) over the first two games of a season. He holds the record (19) for the most threes made over the first three games of a season.
Sure, it's three games. But the Hornets of old would surely be 1-2 at this point and wouldn't have sniffed a comeback against Milwaukee.
They surely would have collapsed against Miami. But this isn't the same team. Walker and Monk's improvement under new head coach James Borrego has Charlotte poised to contest in an Eastern Conference that suddenly isn't as daunting without LeBron James on that side.

The problem of using observed information in estimating unobserved state variables and fixed parameters in a model of a nonlinear dynamical system when the measurements are noisy, the model has errors, and the state of the system as measurements begin is uncertain is cast as an exact path integral. In this formulation the measurements are seen as a guiding "potential" directing a chaotic system to the correct region of phase space. The path integral is evaluated directly for small systems such as the Lorenz 1996 model. In the measurement window, there are indications that the distribution of state variables is nearly Gaussian. The properties of the path integral can yield an approximation to the number of required measurements. A saddle point evaluation of the path integral is seen to be 4DVAR, and implementing this in the case where the dynamics is error free?--i.e. deterministic?--is shown to require regularization to achieve a smooth surface on which the estimation search can proceed. The number of observations required to regularize the search can be estimated from this requirement. The regularized 4DVAR method is applied to experiments on a small nonlinear circuit as well as to the Lorenz 1996 model.

I read this article and found it very interesting, thought it might be something for you. The article is called Mat Sweeney and is located at https://fourlarks.com/artist/mat/.
Mat Sweeney
Mat Diafos Sweeney is a director, writer, and composer based in downtown Los Angeles. He works with text, movement, music, and design to create original performance work, which he presents under the moniker four larks. He is the 2020 recipient of the Dorothy and Richard E Sherwood Award from Center Theatre Group.
Mat's adaptation of Frankenstein, produced at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, swept the 2021 Ovation Awards across all categories, including awards for his Direction and for Best Play. He previously received an Ovation Award for his music for The Temptation of St Antony, produced in a disused downtown flower shop which he operated and curated as an experimental art/music lab from 2015-2019. Mat writes and composes work for cross-disciplinary performers in four larks' continually expanding collaborative ensemble. He often creates and produces work in unexpected locations with immersive mise-en-scene collaged from found materials. His stage work has been described by the LA Times as "visually enthralling" and "the future of contemporary performance" and has been consistently listed in KCRW's Best of the Year and LA WEEKLY's Best of LA.
Other recent projects include Katabasis, a contemporary reimagining of ancient Greek mystery rites staged in promenade through the grounds and gardens of the Getty Villa, and Undine, a chamber opera on sublimation and sleep deprivation, presented as a work-in-progress with support from New Music USA. He frequently collaborates with other artists and composers to design experiential and transmedia events, most recently as the Creative Director for the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra new music program SESSION, where he worked alongside composers including Matthias Pintscher, Derrick Spiva, and Andrew Norman.
His work-in-progress visual album / digital project, hymns was recently selected by the Society for Classical Studies for it's Ancient Worlds, Modern Communities program, and he frequently shares his research and practice with students, most recently as a guest lecturer in the Classics Department at UCLA. He was a Bogliasco Fellow in Spring 2022, and will spend this fall researching and composing a new project at MacDowell.

Drawing the Line on Workplace Sexual Harassment Webinar Follow-up
Presenters: Nicole Pietsch, B.A., Coordinator, Ontario Coalition of Rape Crisis Centres and Julie Lalonde, M.A., Project Manager Draw-the-line.ca Campaign
Almost half of all women will say they have experienced sexual harassment at work or in other public spaces. Comments from "You'd look good on me" to groping, flashing and assault are a daily reality for women and LGBTQ individuals, but street (and other forms of) harassment is rarely reported, and culturally accepted as 'the price you pay' for being a woman or for being gay[1]. When we look away or don't know what to do, we quietly support a threatening workplace. Note: This webinar will discuss workplace-situated sexual harassment, however skill-building and information may also be applicable to addressing situations of school-based or street harassment.

Public education: Taxpayer rights, and school choice saves money
The Cato Institute's Neal McCluskey wrote an article titled, "Taxpayers Have Rights, Too," where he addressed the so-called "right" of public sector union collective bargaining. At the end of the article he addresses the additional problem that comes with politicalized schools – which is the unavoidable result of having government control education (emphasis is mine):
"Even more central to equally respecting all people's rights, though, is that the best an elected body can do is represent the majority of taxpayers. Any taxpayers who disagree will have their rights to freely come to terms with those whom they employ violated.
Notably, the impossibility of protecting everyone's rights is a problem when it comes to not just public-school employment, but anything people can conceivably disagree about, whether it's the teaching of evolution, reading The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, or choosing a school mascot. As long as government decides such things, people's rights to determine for themselves what their children will learn, or with what educators they will associate, will be violated.
The solution to this is freedom: Let people decide for themselves with whom they will do business and under what terms, and everyone's rights will be on an equal footing. It would be an especially easy thing to do in education, where private schools already educate millions of children and would proliferate if they didn't have to compete with 'free' alternatives.
Unfortunately, there are two major obstacles in the way: education politics, and the teachers' unions that dominate it. To equally respect everyone's rights, politicians would have to end the public schooling monopoly, setting both educators and parents free. But that would decimate union power, and all their current rhetoric about rights notwithstanding, unions would fight madly to keep that from happening."
On that topic – Terry Paulson writes this at townhall.com:
"Maybe it's time 'we the people' just blew our educational system wide open, and I don't mean improve the Department of Education. Improvements are for wimps. I mean abolish it. Deep six it. Eliminate, toss, obliterate it; give it the old heave-ho; force it to walk the plank. It is broken and it's wasting money our government doesn't have while limiting education of our young people.
Continuing studies by the Pacific Research Institute have found that there are proven options that cost less, produce better results and keep and reward the best teachers and schools. It's time we do more than read about what other countries are doing to become more American than America."
Kyle Olson at BigGovernment.com notes the cost-savings potential of school choice:
"Former presidential advisor and best-selling author Dick Morris believes that newly elected Republican legislators in Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania and other states will explore school choice options to help remedy huge budget deficits.
In an interview with EAGtv, Morris said the failures of the nation's public education system are obvious, and are tied to a lack of competition and choice inherent in the capitalistic system America was founded on. The reality of enormous state budget deficits will force newly elected lawmakers to return to those principles, Morris said.
'They are going to say Well, do I want to spend $13,000 per student in a public school, or a better education at $8,000 in a charter school,' Morris told EAGtv. 'I think they are going to see the value of the $8,000.'"

New Berlin rethinks yearbook senior quotes after Hitler 'Final Solution' reference

New Berlin rethinks yearbook senior quotes after Hitler 'Final Solution' reference Students in New Berlin say they shouldn't be punished for someone else's mistake.

New Berlin West High School(Photo: New Berlin School District)
Joey Oberlander has known since sixth grade what he wanted his senior quote to be in his high school yearbook. But it may or may not see the light of day.
The New Berlin School District has been reviewing its senior quote tradition after a student last year managed to get a reference touting Adolph Hitler's "Final Solution" to exterminate Jews into print.
It's not sitting well with some students, many of whom have signed an online petition urging district officials to continue to allow them.

"We shouldn't be punished for this one quote," said Oberlander, a senior at New Berlin West, which halted distribution of its 2018 yearbook in June after the offensive quote was detected.
New Berlin Superintendent Joe Garza said in an email to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday that no decision had been made. But after hearing students' concerns on Wednesday he said will allow the quotes, but with additional precautions to ensure they don't have a repeat of last year's debacle.

"Ultimately, our goal is to keep students from doing something they will regret, either immediately, or even five, 10 years from now," Garza said. "But we also don't want to take something away from them because of someone else's mistake."
New Berlin isn't the first district to struggle with senior quotes in their yearbooks.
Last year, Boca Raton High School in Florida said it was halting the tradition after two questionable quotes — one sexual, the other about drugs — made it into the yearbook. And a Kansas City, Missouri, high school apologized for banning two gay students' quotes. ("Of course I dress well, I didn't spend all that time in the closet for nothing." And, "If Harry Potter taught us anything, it's that no one deserves to live in the closet.")
New Berlin West halted distribution of its 2017-'18 yearbook in June after Elana Kahn of Milwaukee's Jewish Community Relations Council brought the quote to their attention.
Principal Michael Fesenmaier called the quote inappropriate and offensive and apologized to families in an email.
Incident prompts positive developments
Kahn, who had worked with the New Berlin schools after a previous anti-Semitic incident, said officials were responsive and that the yearbook episode prompted some positive developments.
At least two students wrote letters of apology assuring the council that it did not reflect their community, and a group of students and their teacher attended the council's annual meeting where journalist Yair Rosenberg spoke on the rise of hate and anti-Semitic attacks on journalists.
She endorsed the school's position of eliminating the quotes, saying it's a difficult job to police them and may protect students in the long run.
"These are young people in formation, and perhaps this is not the place to work out the exploration of language that may be — intentionally or unintentionally — bigoted," she said. "There are other places where they can express themselves that aren't so public and permanent."
RELATED: Students and supporters rally against reported racial slurs at Greendale High School
Case in point might be Oberlander's quote. He's been planning what he'd write since middle school when he first read about the Italian diplomat Niccolò Machiavelli, who is thought by many to have authored Oberlander's sentiment:
"The end justifies the means."
Most readers of Machiavelli ascribe a nefarious intent in those words — essentially, that our actions are justified, no matter how repugnant or morally wrong, as long as we get what we want.
But Oberland says that's not what he intended.
"It means I can be whatever I want to be, and whatever sacrifices I have to make will be justified by where I am in the end."

最佳 10 novels about novelists
w ^riters writing about writers: the fact that there's a lot of it about should perhaps come as no surprise. From the likes of Jack Torrance in The Shining to Paul Morris in Sabine Durrant's Lie With Me, writers in fiction are often skewered: preening, blocked, dejected creatures who'll receive their comeuppance – or salvation – one way or another.
At the Novelry, we hothouse writers from the twinkling of an idea through to a publishing-ready novel with our online writing courses. We are blessed with saintly writers, but we do love an author horror story. In the books below you'll find accounts of literary theft and false authorship, washed-up novelists fading to nothing on college campuses, and a fine array of supersize egos. 但, you'll also find hope: people discovering their place in the world through writing and that happiest of endings – a sparkling book deal.
1. Wonder Boys by Michael Chabon
Grady Tripp is a professor at a Pittsburgh university, with a predilection for drink, drugs and extra-marital affairs. He's also a struggling novelist, failing to finish the long-awaited – and currently just enormously long – follow-up to his last award-winning book. As Grady says, "I had the depressing thought, certainly not for the first time, that my novel might well survive me unfinished." When Grady's flamboyant editor Terry Crabtree comes to town for WordFest weekend, cue a caper that is as funny as it is poignant.
2. The Plot by Jean Hanff Korelitz
When down-on-his-luck author Jacob Finch Bonnet takes up a new teaching role at a Vermont college he is under-prepared, uninterested, and feeling impostor syndrome to his very bones. He soon encounters his worst nightmare: an extravagantly confident student possessed of an idea for a novel that is so remarkable that even Jake despairingly admits, "the worst writer on the planet could not mess up a plot like this". Before too long, the stars align for Jake to make his ill-advised move. The killer plot is now his, and glittering success soon follows. But will it last? Spoiler: 不.
3. Bunny by Mona Awad
Warren University's MFA programme is known for its "experimental approach to narrative". Its first all-female fiction cohort consists of Samantha, a self-professed outsider, and four "Bunnies", a tight-knit group of sickly-sweet rich girls. When the Bunnies extend the paw of friendship to Samantha, she can't figure out whether it's genuine or comes with cruel intentions; 毕竟, they're not backwards in coming forwards with their peer review, dubbing her work "wilfully twisted" and "aggressively dark". Soon Samantha is invited to the Bunnies' extra-curricular "workshops", where the boundaries between fact and fiction, nightmare and reality blur.
4. The Wife by Meg Wolitzer
When creative writing tutor and decidedly average writer Joe Castleman says to his student Joan, "You have no conception of how good you are" it's a perfect moment of foreshadowing in a novel that's as much about sexual politics as it is about the writing life. When we meet Joan, 老龄化 64, she's accompanying her husband, now a celebrated writer, to pick up "the Helsinki prize" – and she's finally had enough of him. As the novel tracks back through their past together, readers will wish that Joan had come to this realisation sooner.
5. The Truth about the Harry Quebert Affair by Joël Dicker
Marcus Goldman's first novel was a stratospheric hit and since then he's been enjoying every minute of it, with adoring readers wherever he goes. The only problem is that there hasn't been much time to write the follow-up, and deadline after deadline has gone whooshing by. But now his publishers are getting mad, there are threats of a lawsuit, and the only person who might be able to help him out of this sticky spot is his former college writing professor, Harry Quebert. Quebert invites Goldman to stay at his oceanside house in New Hampshire to get that novel finished. But Goldman's wordcount plans go awry when the corpse of a teenage girl is discovered on Harry's property, buried alongside the manuscript for Quebert's famed novel, The Origin of Evil. It falls to Goldman to clear his prof's name – motivated, perhaps in part, by the promise of a million-dollar advance for the resulting book. Murder and megabucks: now there's a cure for writer's block.
已经, the second eldest of the March sisters – and Alcott's alter ego – is smart, independent, and happiest when she's at her writing desk, dressed in her ink-stained "scribbling suit". Enduring an early setback on her road to published authordom (take one slighted sister, add a cherished manuscript and a roaring fire), Jo eventually turns pro, earning hard cash for her "sensation" stories. But when she's shamed by a high-handed intellectual – reader, she married him; Alcott, what were you thinking? – Jo struggles to find her voice, first abandoning her gothic thrills for moralistic yarns, before toying with children's fiction, then declaring herself temporarily out of the game until she's accrued more life experience. "I like good strong words that mean something," says Jo, and generations of readers have loved hers.
7. Dear Committee Members by Julie Schumacher
As creative writing professor at an undistinguished liberal arts college, Jason Fitger is frequently asked to pen letters of recommendation for his students and assorted colleagues. A year's worth of such letters makes for an epistolary novel that gives a brilliantly comic insight into the politics, frustrations and occasional joys of academia, as well as a teasing study of a man on the ropes. His sign-off to the very first letter captures the tone of a novel that manages to be uplifting, despite the disappointments that its hero faces: "In sadness but looking to the future."
8. The Retreat by Mark Edwards
Cash-strapped and lonely, grieving the loss of her husband and daughter, Julia Marsh opens her rural home as a venue for writing retreats. Enter Lucas Radcliffe, a successful horror writer with a tragic past and a severe case of writer's block. As Lucas and Julia forge a bond, he becomes determined to solve the mystery of her missing daughter. But this corner of deepest, darkest Wales is holding its own secrets, leading Lucas to delve into local folklore, and a sequence of eerie events ratchets up the fear-factor. It will leave you thinking twice about booking your own writing retreat.
9. Jumping Monkey Hill by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
One of 12 stories in Adichie's 2009 收藏, The Thing Around Your Neck, here we meet Ujunwa, a Nigerian woman who's won a place on a retreat for the fictional Lipton African writers' prize. The organiser is Edward Campbell, who announces himself "an Oxford-trained Africanist". Ujunwa's alarm bells are already ringing as she arrives at a resort for affluent foreign tourists – all of whom are white. Over the course of the retreat she confronts not just the self-important Campbell's lasciviousness, but also his absurd proclamations of what "authentic African" writing should – and shouldn't – be. Ujunwa, whose writing we're treated to throughout the story, makes for a luminous heroine.
10. The Ghost Writer by Philip Roth
Twenty-three-year-old Nathan Zuckerman arrives at the home of his literary hero, the famous recluse EI Lonoff. Initially starstruck, the ambitious Nathan – an alter ego for Roth who would feature in eight further novels – wants not just to learn from the man who embodies creative integrity, "a giant of patience and fortitude and selflessness", but become his "spiritual son". Luck's on Nathan's side as a snowstorm means his visit is extended. He is enthralled and enchanted – not least by the figure of Lonoff's assistant Amy Bellette, a Jewish immigrant whose enigmatic identity gives The Ghost Writer the propulsive energy of a mystery novel, as well as being a tender, comic story of mentor and mentee.

Local heritage recognised at St Cyprian's church
Submitted by admin781027 on Tue, 22/09/2020 - 11:14
It's wonderful to see our local heritage recognised with this blue plaque at St Cyprian's church, which was built in 1866 by philanthropist James Horsfall. The church was one of a number of buildings erected by James Horsfall in Hay Mills village during the nineteenth century, including a local school and housing. This area is rich with history from the industrial revolution and it's wonderful to see these historic buildings remembered.

Canadian Comedian and Actor; Past Host of the Juno Awards
Russell Peters is a Canadian comedian and actor. He began performing in Toronto in 1989 and won a Gemini Award in 2008.
Peters began performing in Toronto in 1989. His popularity extends to several countries, as he has since also performed in the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Afghanistan, Sweden, South Africa, India, the Caribbean, Philippines, Vietnam, mainland China, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Singapore, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Jordan, Denmark, Norway, Lebanon, Oman, The Netherlands and Malaysia, among other places.
In 1992, Peters met comedian George Carlin, one of his biggest influences, who advised him to get on stage whenever and wherever possible. In 2007, 15 years later, he hosted one of Carlin's last shows before his death the following year.
In Canada, Peters became the first comedian to sell out Toronto's Air Canada Centre, with more than 16,000 tickets in two days for the single show. He ended up selling over 30,000 tickets nationally over the two-day sales period. His show in Sydney, Australia on 15 May 2010 had an audience of 13,880, making it the largest stand-up comedy show in Australian history. He broke a UK comedy sales record at London's O2 Arena when he sold over 16,000 tickets to his show on 2009. Russell Peters' performances on May 5–6, 2012 in Singapore also set attendance records for a single stand-up comedian at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
Peters also currently produces and stars on the radio situation comedy series, Monsoon House, on CBC Radio One. He was the host of the 2008 Juno Awards televised ceremonies in Calgary in 2008 and 2009.
Peters released his autobiography, "Call Me Russell," co-written with his brother Clayton and Dannis Koromilas.
His stand-up performances are mostly made up of observational comedy where he uses humour to highlight racial, ethnic, class and cultural stereotypes. He often refers to his own life experiences growing up in an Indian family and impersonates various English accents of different groups in his act to poke fun at each group.
Peters lives in Los Angeles and owns two homes there. He also owns homes in Las Vegas, Nevada and Vaughan, Ontario.
Peters has appeared in many films, including the 2011 Punjabi-Canadian movie "Breakaway," alongside Camilla Belle, Anupam Kher, and Vinay Virmani. He also appeared in "Senior Skip Day" starring Larry Miller, Tara Reid and Gary Lundy. He also acted in Duncan Jones's movie "Source Code" as an amateur comedian with a bad attitude and starred in National Lampoon's "The Legend of Awesomest Maximus."

Posted in Last Good Tooth, News
Please welcome Last Good Tooth!
Please welcome Last Good Tooth to Team Love! Their debut album, Not Without Work and Rest, comes out May 28th, 2013.
Pre-orders are up at our webstore.
Catch them on tour all over the US with Brown Bird starting next month. Dates below the jump.
Last Good Tooth came together like many bands do… as teenagers, smoking grass and aping their favorite band of the moment in their parents' garages across the country. In the case of Last Good Tooth, that band was the Black Keys which is a bit shocking once you hear the first notes of Not Without Work and Rest trickle through your speakers. You see, the band is stunning when it comes to melodies, at carving out a line with a guitar that leads you straight into the first lyric of the songs while at the same time invoking some sort of strange Gordon Gano-ish Appalachian voodoo.
Well before the sessions for their debut were underway, word of their spirited live shows reached the offices of Team Love Records in New Paltz, NY. The band eventually dropped in on the sleepy Hudson Valley town and shook things up at the local dive bar, leading the room full of inebriated youth into a singalong of a Michael Hurley song. Later they played along side an abandoned thespian camp to a field of hedonists and swimming-hole experts. All of this left a strong impression on the folks at Team Love, and the plans for their debut album took root.
Recorded over the summer and fall of 2011, Not Without Work and Rest is a record for the young and the old, offering up tinges of mystery alongside a familiar warmth.
Last Good Tooth formed in Providence, RI and is currently based in New York State. The band is made up of Penn Sultan (Guitars), Kevin Sullivan (Bass), Arthur Kapp (Drums), and Alex Spoto (Fiddles) Not Without Work and Rest is out May 28th, 2013 on Team Love Records.

Just a short update to say I've been guest posting at Dooce recently.
The atrocity that is the Restoration Hardware catalog: You got me there, rich people: I wouldn't know how to draw a springbok if requested by a child, but I do know that restaurants in Brooklyn stopped hanging antlers on their walls in 2007.
Horrible slang: The overlap of people who say "gotta love _____!!!!" and people who comment on Facebook pictures of children with "Precious babies!!!!" is a completely saturated pool.

На 9 юни 2008 г. подписва договор с Бурсаспор и през 2010 г. печели с тях титлата на страната. Бивш вратар на Националния отбор на България. През 2010 г. на националния празник на България (3 март), Иванков изиграва своят последен мач с националната фланелка. Двубоят е приятелската среща с Полша, играна на стадион Полония във Варшава, а резултатът е 2-0 в полза на домакините. През 2010 става шампион на Турция с Бурсаспор.

На 4 април 2010 г. вкарва своя 42 гол и става третият най-резултатен вратар в света. Той е и най-резултатният европейски вратар в световната история.

Притежава изключителен рефлекс и има идеален поглед върху играта. Печелил е множество награди за най-добър вратар. Той е един от най-класните български вратари за всички времена.

От началото на сезон 2011-12 е част от състава на Анортосис Фамагуста. Изиграва 2 мача от Лига Европа, след което е освободен.
