LCEP's Literacy and Numeracy Work
Instead of offering 'literacy for micro-enterprise' or 'literacy for health', LCEP allows neo-literates to apply their emerging skills in a variety of highly relevant and inter-related village governance and economic empowerment arenas. In this way, learners can make immediate, varied use of their emerging knowledge and skills, thereby making these skills more robust and sustainable. By applying their skills in a community meeting, as part of a credit and savings group, or for publishing the community newsletter, participants recognize the multiple ways in which literacy and numeracy skills can make their lives easier, and their community stronger.
To see a Literacy Component Overview Table, click here.
LCEP's Principal Literacy activities include:
Training: LCEP literacy and numeracy instruction is based on a cascade training model in which Lead Trainers receive training, then train others in, learner-centered, highly participatory, and differentiated instruction, as well as the fundamentals of functional literacy and numeracy. Other levels of the cascade include District Trainers, Cluster Facilitators and Village Teachers. While District Trainers manage the training process for their district, Cluster Facilitators serve as LCEP's main resource for Village Teachers. Each Cluster Facilitator is responsible for a cluster of six villages. Perhaps the most important level of the cascade is that of the Village Teachers (VTs). VTsare chosen by LCEP from a pool identified by the CDC. One male and one female teacher are chosen for each village. The majority of LCEP village teachers have a sixth grade education or less. Village teachers initially receive fourteen days of training which includes an introduction to LCEP, the principles of LCEP's literacy methodology and beginning lesson plans. Thereafter VTs receive weekly support visits from Cluster Facilitators who monitor progress and assist with learning and training in the new methodology. Meanwhile, Village Learners are selected by the community to participate in literacy/ numeracy instruction. In each village there is a male and a female class consisting of a maximum of 25 learners. Village learners range in age from 10-45, with the majority (48% female & 39% male) of learners being between the age of 13 and 18 years of age.

Curriculum and Materials Development: The LCEP literacy curriculum is designed to take learners with little to no literacy and numeracy background to a fourth grade equivalency in a total of approximately 600 content hours, delivered over the course of 50, 12-hour weeks. Learners who complete the course are issued Afghan MOE-endorsed Level One equivalency certificates (through Grade 4 equivalency) which allow them to bridge to the formal system at a fifth grade level. The curriculum is designed to take village teachers and learners from a more to a less scaffold learning and teaching environment. Therefore early modules and lessons include more instructions for teachers and learners, while later modules encourage teachers and learners to create their own teaching and learning materials. The LCEP curriculum consists of four modules: Self in Community I and II, and Governance and Micro-Enterprise I and II. Each module contains twelve lesson units for a total of 48.
To see an overview of the curriculum, click here.
Village Learning Centers: Each community is expected to donate space for one male and one female Village Learning Center. Centers are to be maintained and improved as necessary and possible by the village. LCEP supplies each center with a Literacy Kit consisting of blackboard and chalk, writing implements, a variety of paper, maps, calendars, flashcards, lesson-based short stories, notebooks and other basic items necessary for instruction. Although LCEP provides some start-up resources as well as a small education support grant, communities, with the aid of the CDC are expected to maintain and autonomously support the Village Learning Center.
Literacy Progress Tracking System: As a way of tracking learner progress in literacy and numeracy, LCEP is currently developing a set of learner assessment tools and linking them to a Literacy Progress Tracking System, which registers every Village Teacher and his/ her learners. This database will not only reflect the learner progress, but it will also geographically locate the student. This information is vital for future strategic planning regarding education systems development. As recognition of its importance, the Afghan Ministry of Education has embraced this system and will implement LCEP's Assessment Portfolio approach for Afghan literacy learners nation-wide. The MOE has requested that LCEP implement a series of 18 workshops on literacy assessment and M&E in Kabul and that LCEP assist them with setting up their data base. As part of this process the MOE will incorporate LCEP data into its system. It should be noted that very few developing countries possess such a system, and Afghanistan will be able to showcase and build upon the benefits of an effective and affordable educational planning tool.

Should life really mean life?
I asked this question in a different category which more teenagers would answer in and I thought I may as well asked in a more "adult filled" category too. I'm not 100% sure of the US way of dealing with criminals but in the UK when people are sentenced to "life" they aren't really... show more I asked this question in a different category which more teenagers would answer in and I thought I may as well asked in a more "adult filled" category too.
I'm not 100% sure of the US way of dealing with criminals but in the UK when people are sentenced to "life" they aren't really being sentenced to life -they're sentenced to a shorter period of time e.g. 25years.
In Scotland, out prisons are getting so full criminals are getting out earlier than they're meant to - which to me is appalling but anyway...
State your age and where you're from if possible!
(link to the other category I posted in - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;... )
Best Answer: Yes, I think that Life Inprisonment should mean exactly that, Life! All the hard work that goes into getting a Criminal into prison should mean that they should serve all their sentence. Nowadays it's all "Life - Good Behaviour - 14 years - Back on the streets". I agree, appalling. It actually begins to annoy me, the whole System is messed up and getting worse. The prisons in England are getting more full and everyone wants more prisons, but noone wants one near them - which just makes me think like What?! I feel very much sorrow for victims of Rape and Murder when they know that their attacker will be out, and most likely come back to haunt them in years to come. The Government should have done something years ago, but it's probably too late now, just like Immigration. It's disgusting.
Life is Life , not 20 years , thats 20 years.
I'm 13 years old and from England.

I worked in Saudi Arabia for several years and they may have got many things wrong but one thing I do know is that I could walk around with a wedge of money in my back pocket and know that it was almost certain to stay there.
Unfortunately the UK is now being run to ruin by so called do gooders and is handcuffed by Brussels.
Life should mean life after all the victims of those murdered have to endure a lifetime of misery.
Carrying a gun or a knife should be an automatic 15 years with no parole. The same for drug dealers no matter how much they are carrying.
Rapists should be castrated.
Men who beat women should get at least 10 years.
Those from a foreign land caught commiting an offence should serve time here and then be deported back to their homelands no matter where that is.
Drink drivers should get a lifetime ban
Basically if you don't want the consequences don't do the crime.
As for prison overcrowding all I say is TOUGH they are there to be punished. If they are so overcrowded then run a shift pattern for the inmates and have a hot bed system.
If things don't change in the UK soon then I can see people taking things into their own hands like that poor farmer who was defending his properrty but got locked up himself few years back. All he was doing was defending what is his. Those on his property should not have been there.
50 East Midlands so that makes me old enought to know right from wrong.

Actually it depeds on the sentencing. From what I can understand when the DA puts in a 25 to life sentence, it means that the CONVICTED felon can expect a sentencing of anything between 25 years and life in prison. Basically 25 to life is usually what they say before the defendant is convicted. After he or she is convicted, the jury can 'advise' the judge as to what the sentence should be. The judge then takes the jury and the DA's sentences into advisement before the judge makes a ruling to how long the convicted person/s should stay in jail. So if the DA requests 25 to life it means that, s/he wants the convicted felon to be in jail for atleast 25 years and at most life in jail. The judge can go ahead and pick some random number like 44 and it will still be ok, but the judge can also pick a lower number if s/he feels that 25 is too much. It's all up to the preception of the judge, the jury, the DA and the defense. Usually convicted felons don't normally serve out their whole term. Usually only about a 1/3 or a 1/4 of their term is served in jail and the rest is what we call parole where they have to go and check in with a shrink and the police every so often. But life in jail usually means that they serve life unless parole is granted where then the convicted felon would serve out the rest of his or her sentence outside jail. But life without parole is usually when the felon cannot appeal for parole but can appeal the decisions. This is my interpretation of the life sentence. I may be right or wrong it really depends on so many factors, good behavior and the such. The death sentence is different because you get sent to prision and then death row, this process is so slow you can rot in prision/death row forever and never actually be killed. Usually inmates on death row die from the atrocious living conditions.

Where: US
It's the same here. 'Life' is reduced based on conduct and overcrowding. I personally don't think it that important to interpret a life sentence so literally. When the court system says 'life' we all understand that means 'a really long time' that MIGHT include the rest of your life. Some life sentences come with the qualifier, "without the possibility of parole", and that literally means life, so we do have a 'life' sentence, it's just not the same thing as the 'other' life sentence.
The greater issue here is, why is prison overcrowding such a continuing and always escalating problem? The statistics suggest the number of people we incarcerate is always growing. Why is that? If we are shoving 'life' sentence prisoners out the door to make space for prisoners convicted of less serious crimes, doesn't that suggest we're doing something wrong? I would guess we're either incarcerating too many people or we're giving them too many reasons to break our laws.
I'm 42 from Australia. I am a firm believer that life should actually mean life. Here in Australia the sentences are fairly lenient and it makes me angry. I don't believe in capital punishment because a. it's too good & quick for some of the criminals & b. because there is a small chance that an innocent person could be put to death. If our laws were tougher and life meant life it would deter a lot of criminals. In some Asian countries where they do have tougher sentences people can walk down the street at night and not be afraid of getting mugged. They can let their kids go out and play and know they will be ok. It must be nice to feel like that. Life meaning life...bring it on I say!
Law is pretty universal from country to country as most people are familiar with 'life' being meant up to a standard year commonly set for that culture and gender. For example if a caucasian criminal is sentenced to 'life' he or she will be staying in prison from 1st day arrival to the moment a parole, if allowable, is set in motion. It also is decided by life expectancy of the caucasian ethnicity, usually 77.? years for the average healthy non-smoking, non-drinking male and roughly 9-14 years later for the same but female of same ethnic background.
But it is fairly consistent between states and countries that sentencing of life means anywhere between that 1st day and the average expectancy added to current age. If a guy or gal goes in at 20 and average life expectancy is 77 years old, then this person can be in prison till they reach 97, which is highly unlikely as justified by their crime, may not see the next day let alone next year !
It is appalling criminals 'get out' released back into society without finishing their sentence but it is even more despicable when they deserved just a fine or slap on the wrist instead they are sentenced to time in prison where the wasting of taxpayers money is given a rude awakening ! Yet they still complain if not given a steak dinner and a television set in their 8 x 8 cells ! Can you believe that crap !
I am in Ohio. USA and I am 42 years of age.

Legally, you're missing the finer details of what's going on.
Life normally has a set legal meaning (99 years in most places here in the States). So, a "life" sentence is a "99 year" sentence.
Then, you may get our early for time served, probation, good behavior, blah blah blah. But that all comes after the fact. They ARE sentenced to life, but mitigating factors are then applied that reduce the actual time served after the sentencing.
As an outside observer, we often only hear only the initial and the final calculations and not all the details and finer legal points that went on in-between to create the difference in the two.
It is no different than sentencing someone to 20 years and then letting them out after 12 for whatever reason. Should we change EVERY legal sentence to mean exactly what it initially states and do away with reductions for any reason ever?
Or, to see the same effect in a wholly different context...
This is like saying to an employee "Your salary is $1000 per month!" But then you only pay them $682.17 because you take that original $1000 and subtract various state and federal income and social security taxes, health care, 401k contributions, etc, etc, etc. But *technically,* *legally* your base and reported salary is still $1000 per month, even if you only *receive* $682.17 per month in actualized monies.
Normally, if you want "life" to mean "life," then you sentence to "life without parole." Just "life" is understood to meant that there is a possibility of parole. This would be the equivalent of saying "pay" versus "pay without taxes."
We can talk about redefining life, but it already does come with a specific, clear, purposeful legal meaning most times. The meaning may seem disparate with reality to a layperson, but lay people aren't the ones in the courtrooms practicing law every day. To lawyers, the term "life" DOES carry a specific meaning that they can then work with.
This is a situation where I say we let the professionals who deal with it handle how their own profession defines a thing and recognize and admit that--as outside lay people--we not only shouldn't try to have a say, but we shouldn't think we know better than they do about a thing we understand less about.
(I'm not a lawyer, but I work in a profession in which outsiders are constantly wanting to redefine our workflows and terminologies to things they could understand easier, but that would make our jobs harder and less efficient.)

Life is a damn joke in the USA. Scumbags commit crimes and get sent to a country club prison filled with all the frills and thrills. Then they get out on an unsuspecting society. I know for a fact a pedophile was sent to up for a 25 to life sentence and was out in something like 2 years. She saw me and laughed.
Source(s): Justice is a damn joke with liberals at the helm
Yes, it should be what it says on the box.
Not a proponent of capital punishment though. Our judicial system is not perfect therefore it is possible to convict an innocent man. It's a greater evil to kill an innocent man than to release a guilty one.

Should life mean life in jail ?
Should Life mean Life for serious offenders ?
Should life actually mean life?
Life? Explain the meaning of life!?
Should a life sentence mean life inside?
Is there a such thing as 'better looking?'?
Can a subjective information become objective information?
Why do some people think life has no meaning?
Is the best option living in infinite ignorance and corruption to override your body's drive to survive and allow natural causes to kill you?
Is it true that everything happens for a terrible reason?

Business correlation is very important and so is career. If you want to do more than one career, it is always advisable to ensure that you choose careers that correlates well with each other. This is because, if you go for two careers that are worlds apart, it is more than possible to concentrate on one and leave the other one unattended. But if you go for careers that work together, it is much easier since you develop one as you are working on the other one.
This is the secret that Ireland Baldwin learnt. Therefore, she decided to venture into fashion model and acting. She started both acting and modelling at the same time in 2013 and since then she has been featured in films like; Grazia and Grudge Match. She is also an animal rights' vocal advocate and she has posed for PETA exactly 24 years after her mother did.
Well, how well do you know about Ireland Baldwin? If not much, we have compiled all you need to know about Ireland Baldwin's net worth in 2022, her age, height, weight, boyfriend, husband, kids, biography and complete details about her life. Well, if you're all set, here is what we know about Ireland Baldwin to date.
It was on the 23rd of October 1995 when there were new everywhere about the birth of a little beautiful girl whom they decided to name Ireland Eliesse Baldwin. Ireland is also known as Ireland Basinger Baldwin taking her mum's name Kim Basinger. Ireland was lucky to be born and raised in a family of celebrities since she is the daughter of actress Kim Basinger and actor Alec Baldwin.
Apart from that, she is a niece to three famous actors named Daniel, William Baldwin and Stephen. And Hailey Baldwin is her cousin. Her parents separated after her birth and her father remarried and got kids in her second marriage who became half-siblings to Ireland. These are; Carmen and Lucia, Leonardo, Rafael, Eduardo and Romeo.
Ireland is a descendant of Mayflower passenger John Howland (1592-1673) through her father. And through the same line, she is the 14th generation of the family born in North America as well the 15th to live in North America. In 2007, at age 11, her father Alec Baldwin left her a rude voicemail message which led to Ireland's fame as she publicised the message which stated that Ireland was "a rude thoughtless little pig".
So, how old is Ireland Baldwin in 2022 and what is her height and weight? Well, Ireland Baldwin's age is 26 years old as of today's date 18th January 2022 having been born on 23 October 1995. Though, she is 6′ 2″ in feet and inches and 188cm in Centimetres tall, she weighs about 137lbs in Pound and 62 kg in Kilograms. Her eye color is Blue and hair color is Blonde.
Although she became famous at 11 years and started modelling when she was only 18 years old, she still had enough time to attend school. Before she officially started her career, she attended Sierra Canyon School until her graduation. After graduating from Canyon, she knew she wanted to be a famous actress just like her mother. For that reason she joined New York Film Academy to sharpen her skills in the film industry. This marked the beginning of her acting and modelling career.
Ireland has not only tried her luck in the career world but also in the love world. She started dating Angel Haze in 2014 and Haze even devoted her track titled "CandiXs" to Ireland. The cover art depicted Haze and Baldwin and it was painted by Haze herself. Baldwin however called off the relationship and immediately checked herself into Malibu's Soba Recovery Center and she was treated for "emotional trauma".
Four years later, she fell in love again but this time round, it was with a man named Corey Harper who is a musician. There are no rumors of the two separating and therefore, it seems like she finally found the right soulmate.
Is Ireland Baldwin Lesbian?
Looking at the life Ireland Baldwin has lived and her love history, it is clear that she is interested in both sexes, male and female. Although she has never come out openly to discuss about it, she can be considered to be queer.
In March 2013, Baldwin signed with IMG Models. In April she started her modelling career with New York Post in a swimwear editorial. The following month, she was featured in a W Magazine's titled It Trend, It Girl feature and Patrick Demarchelier was the photographer. In September 2013, Elle which is a lifestyle magazine interviewed her. She later decided to join New York Film Academy in 2014 to study mainly acting and cinematography. After a stint in rehab in April 2015, she resigned from IMG.
This girl is a true success since she started her career when she was 18 years of age and she has managed to meet with great and well-known celebrities in this industry. Although she has not received any order as at now, we can expect them to start coming in any time from now.

Do you know how you're going to set your table for Christmas this year?
We host 30 people for Christmas Eve dinner, so I have a lot of past Christmas tables to share.
If you'd like to see the original post for any of these, just click on the image.
I haven't given a thought to this year's tables.
Each year, my Christmas theme is Gloria in Excess!
I'm still putting out my excessive Christmas decor.
Yes, I am crazy! By the time I finish, it will be time to take it all down.
And by-the-way, I also haven't finished my Christmas shopping.
While you brilliant, organized people are relaxing and enjoying the season, I'm still in panic mode.
I guess I work better under pressure. I know I need psychiatric help. I just can't seem to stop decorating!
Thank you for coming over to see our Christmas Eve tablescapes. I have to go get out more Christmas decor now!
Wow, every one of your tables are stunning. you really do set the most beautiful tables for every occasion.
I love all of your tables and I'm pretty close to panic mode. There are so many more tables I want to style and goodies to bake. I hope everything comes together for your Christmas Eve Bash.
Maybe we should start a support groups for over decorators! I definitely qualify. Like you, I am still putting up decorations, not finished shopping, and beginning to go into panic mode. Love all your tables. Wish I had that many people to decorate for, because I definitely have the dishes to do it!


In Spain, drinking chocolate is as common as drinking coffee. Just like we have coffeeshops, Spain has chocolaterías serving drinking chocolate and churros to dunk in it. Some of them are open 24 hours a day, just in case of 4 AM chocolate emergencies. When you find good Spanish drinking chocolate it's a far cry from the Swiss Miss many of us grew up on. It's thick—sometimes so thick that instead of sipping, it's easier to eat it with a spoon like pudding. It's not overly sweet—you should still be able to taste the bitter, roasted notes of chocolate.

Teez Tabor
49ers Sign CB Teez Tabor
September 30th, 2019 at 7:31pm CST by Zach Links
The 49ers have signed former Lions cornerback Teez Tabor to the practice squad, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). To make room, they've released tackle Ryan Pope.
Tabor, a second-round pick in 2017, lasted just two seasons in Detroit. He showed great promise coming out of Florida and earned All-SEC accolades in back-to-back years, but the 23-year-old logged just five total starts, 39 total tackles, and no interceptions before being released by the Lions in late August.
Tabor won't turn 24 until December and is said to have strong zone coverage skills. With the Niners, he could be a backstop for Ahkello Witherspoon and Jason Verrett, who are both dealing with injuries. On a related note – the Niners were also said to be considering their old friend Dontae Johnson, former Raider David Amerson, and eight-year NFL veteran Coty Sensabaugh this week, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic.
Ryan Pope
Dolphins Workout Former Lions Second-Rounder CB Teez Tabor
September 10th, 2019 at 5:50pm CST by Andrew Ortenberg
Teez Tabor is getting another look. The corner back who was recently released by the Lions had a workout with the Dolphins on Tuesday, a source told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network (Twitter link).
Tabor was a second-round pick in 2017, but he flamed out quickly and lasted just two seasons in Detroit. Tabor made one start as a rookie and four last year, but consistently struggled. He was quickly labeled a bust, and it was clear that Matt Patricia's coaching staff wasn't too high on him. The 53rd overall pick of the 2017 draft, Tabor was a first-team All-SEC selection in each of his last two years at Florida, but never lived up to his billing.
Because of his draft status, he'll likely get another shot somewhere soon whether it's with the Dolphins or someone else. Miami is in the midst of a full-blown rebuild and will likely be taking looks at as many young players as possible to try and find some gems for the future, so their interest makes sense. The Dolphins have Xavien Howard locked up longterm, but not too much behind him at corner.
Lions Cut CB Teez Tabor
August 30th, 2019 at 12:20pm CST by Zach Links
Teez Tabor's time in Detroit has come to an end. On Friday, the Lions released the 2017 second-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com (on Twitter).
Tabor fell to the Lions at No. 53 overall two years back, but some draft analysts, like NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah, were much higher on him. The Florida product suffered a hamstring injury during his workout with Detroit and was unable to audition for other teams, leading to his drop.
In the pros, Tabor hasn't measured up. To date, the 23-year-old has made just five total starts. For his career (22 games), he has 39 total tackles and no interceptions.
Extra Points: Vikes, Bolts, Raiders, Lions
September 15th, 2017 at 9:27pm CST by Connor Byrne
Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford is dealing with "swelling, pain and discomfort" in his left knee, Chris Mortenson of ESPN reports. Notably, that's the same knee in which Bradford underwent procedures to repair a torn ACL in 2013 and '14. Thanks to his latest knee issue, Bradford's not a lock to play Sunday against in Pittsburgh, though the Vikings are "cautiously optimistic" he will, per Mortenson. At the same time, the Vikes do have some reservations about the injury, Mortenson notes. In the unlikely event Bradford doesn't suit up, the Vikings' offense would presumably experience a marked drop-off after handling the Saints on Monday. Bradford was the driving force behind that 29-19 win, going 27 of 32 for 346 yards and three touchdowns. His backup is Case Keenum, who struggled mightily with the Rams last season.
Elsewhere around the NFL…
Speaking of left knee troubles, Chargers cornerback Jason Verrett is experiencing soreness there after an ACL tear limited him to four games last season. He'll miss Sunday's game against Miami as a result and could sit out "several" more weeks, according to Mike DiGiovanna of the San Diego Union-Tribune. Verrett played nearly all of the Chargers' defensive snaps (63 of 69) in their loss to Denver on Monday, but head coach Anthony Lynn held him out of practice Friday and stated that the corner is "just not right." Lynn added that he has "no idea" how long Verrett will be on the shelf, only revealing that the player is "week-to-week." Verrett, 26, is less than a year removed from the knee surgery he underwent last October.
Left tackle Donald Penn expected the two-year deal he signed with the Raiders in 2016 t0 be his last contract, according to Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area. Penn didn't show signs of slowing down last season, though, leading him to shelve any thoughts of retirement. He's now under Raiders control through 2018 after inking an extension Friday. The 34-year-old believes the new pact will ensure that he'll retire a Raider, which would be a "childhood dream," as he told Bair and other reporters. Penn, who held out over the summer, noted that he wasn't optimistic an agreement would come. "There was a lot of doubt (about getting a new deal)," he said. "I didn't want to hit free agency again. I told them, 'You know how much I love you guys. Show me how much you guys love me back, and let's get this done so I can retire a Raider.'
Lions second-round pick Teez Tabor was a healthy scratch in Week 1 and, given the team's depth at cornerback, probably won't be a factor for a while, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com writes. But head coach Jim Caldwell still thinks the ex-Florida Gator could pay short-term dividends. "That probably would not be an accurate statement in terms of a 'long-term project,'" Caldwell said. "I'm not certain what that denotes, but that probably wouldn't be how we would assess it." Meanwhile, defensive coordinator Teryl Austin is pleased with the progress Tabor has made in recent months. "He's doing everything right and we'll see him at some point," Austin declared. "(He's) much different than when he first got in here. I think he's a really super smart player. Gets it, can get around the ball, again, just growing him right now." Once considered a good bet to go in the first round this year, Tabor fell to the Lions at No. 53 after posting slow times in the 40-yard yard dash in the offseason.

Lions Notes: LTs, Tabor, Quin
August 4th, 2017 at 7:01pm CST by Connor Byrne
A few notes from Detroit:
In response to the serious shoulder injury stud left tackle Taylor Decker suffered during the spring, the Lions went out and acquired a pair of fill-in options in Greg Robinson and Cyrus Kouandjio. Robinson (second overall) and Kouandjio (44th) were high picks in the 2014 draft, but the former washed out with the Rams and the latter failed to stick in Buffalo. Unfortunately for the Lions, the two aren't off to good starts in training camp, according to both Kyle Meinke of MLive.com and Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com. Robinson and Kouandjio have each dealt with injuries, but when they have taken the field, things haven't gone well. Second-year defensive end Anthony Zettel, a sixth-rounder in 2016 who had one sack as a rookie, made "mincemeat" of the two tackles during practice Wednesday, per Meinke. Zettel has indeed held his own against the duo, confirms Rothstein, who currently tabs Kouandjio as the likely starter on the blindside. Either way, it appears the Lions are in for significantly worse play this year from the left tackle position, which isn't exactly positive news for a team that could soon commit huge money to its quarterback.
Rookie cornerback Teez Tabor has also begun 2017 in less-than-stellar fashion, relays Meinke, who suggests that the second-round pick from Florida could struggle to see the field much this year at the rate he's going. Most or all of Darius Slay, Nevin Lawson, Quandre Diggs and D.J. Hayden are in line to receive more playing time than Tabor, whom unproven receiver Jared Abbrederis "abused" on Friday, notes Meinke. Tabor also hasn't shown much speed, which is especially troubling for a player whose draft stock fell as a result of subpar showings in the 40-yard dash.
Rothstein has the details on safety Glover Quin's two-year, $13MM extension. Initially, he was slated to earn a base salary of $4MM with a cap hit of $7.8MM in 2017. Now, his base salary is down to just $900K (fully guaranteed) with a cap hit of $6.4MM. In 2018, Quin will make $3.85MM in base salary, with $3.6MM of it guaranteed for injury only. On the third day in March, however, it becomes fully guaranteed. In 2019, the final year of his deal, Quin has no money guaranteed. Although the 31-year-old got some additional dollars and years in the extension, the Lions will still have the ability to get out of the deal before the 2018 season if his performance dips.

Lions Rumors: Carter, Maclin, Golladay
June 3rd, 2017 at 3:02pm CST by Sam Robinson
The Lions are planning a position switch for a recent draft pick. Additions of D.J. Hayden, Teez Tabor and fifth-round pick Jamal Agnew at cornerback led the Lions to ask their 2015 third-rounder — Alex Carter — to relocate to safety, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports. This would stand to give Carter a better chance to make the roster and attempt to launch a career that hasn't taken off yet. The former Stanford performer has only played in one NFL game in two years. A 2015 ankle injury put Carter on IR, and the team didn't see enough from him in 2016 to activate him for more than one contest.
At safety, Detroit has starters Glover Quin — who is in a contract year — and Tavon Wilson, with backups Miles Killebrew and Don Carey behind them. It's a thinner situation than cornerback looks, as Roster Resource details, but Meinke notes Carter is no lock to make the team. More is expected of Killebrew, a 2016 fourth-round selection, in Year 2, and Carey is a constant on special teams. Jim Caldwell identified Carter's frame, at 6-foot and 205 pounds, as a reason for the move.
Here's more out of the Motor City.
The Chiefs made one of the more surprising moves of the offseason by making Jeremy Maclin an old-school, June 2 cut. Maclin immediately vaults to the top of the UFA wide receiver contingent, and the Lions could still be in need of a third reliable wideout after Anquan Boldin's contract expired. Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com weighs the fit for Maclin in Detroit, noting the salary would have to be right. Maclin just saw the Chiefs move on from a five-year, $55MM contract. That said, Maclin, at 29, probably profiles as a player who will want a role more substantial than as a No. 3 behind Golden Tate and Marvin Jones. Tate earns $6.2MM per year, and Jones averages $8MM annually. A Maclin commitment may be untenable. Boldin fits that description better, but the sides haven't talked a deal in a while.
June 1 passing means the Lions do, however, gain $5.99MM in cap space after the funds from DeAndre Levy's release became available, as Jason Fitzgerald of OverTheCap notes. The Lions now possess $8.638MM in cap space. Levy's deal will saddle the team with $4.8MM in 2017 dead money.
Third-round wide receiver Kenny Golladay remains the only Lions draft choice unsigned. This is due to the CBA's cloudier language regarding third-round picks, with Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press noting third-rounders' base salaries in Years 2-4 of their contracts can fluctuate compared to players chosen in every other round of the draft. Golladay, though, is working out with the team and expected to be signed by training camp.
Jarrad Davis signed a fully guaranteed rookie deal worth $10.969MM, Birkett reports. Davis receives a $6.117MM signing bonus. Tabor, assigned to travel from Florida to the Motor City a round after Davis, saw the Lions fully guarantee the base salaries in his first two seasons. Tabor's signing bonus came in at $1.647MM, per Birkett. Both ex-Gators will have $465K base salaries as rookies.
Sixth-round quarterback Brad Kaaya signed for four years and $2.523MM after being a one-time Day 2 prospect, Birkett reports, with a $123K signing bonus. None of the Lions' draft choices received any additional bonuses beyond their signing bonus.

NFC Notes: Folk, Eagles, Lions, Vick
May 28th, 2017 at 6:32pm CST by Sam Robinson
Despite spending the entirety of the 2010s thus far with the Jets and being that franchise's most accurate kicker, Nick Folk wasn't especially surprised by his early-offseason release. The 32-year-old kicker is now with the Buccaneers, which would be surprising given their recent investment history at this position. Roberto Aguayo's struggles have opened the door to an ongoing competition, but Folk doesn't believe he has to win it to be kicking in the NFL this season.
"If I kick well, I'll be kicking here or somewhere else," Folk said, via Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times. "I can't worry about things I can't control. If I kick the best I can, I'll be just fine."
Folk signed a one-year, $1.75MM deal with $750K guaranteed. Aguayo went 22-for-31 on field goals last season, putting the former second-round pick's future in question. Auman offers that Folk's experience as an 11th-year veteran could give him the edge if this competition is close, Aguayo's status as a rare Day 2 kicker pick notwithstanding. As Auman points out, Folk winning the job would make it six straight years the Bucs will have deployed a different kicker.
Here's the latest from the NFC.
Despite Michael Vick seeming to indicate he was in the process of coming to an agreement with Falcons management on a one-day retirement contract, the former Falcons Pro Bowler said Sunday he hasn't spoken with anyone with the team about doing this yet. But he has it on the agenda. "I haven't talked to anybody about it specifically," Vick said, via Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com. "It's something that I've really been thinking about trying to get done. I was asked the question the other day is that what I want, and I said, 'Yeah.' … When I spoke to [Falcons owner] Arthur [Blank], we talked about various other things," Vick said. "Like I said, [retiring as a Falcon] is something that can happen down the road, and I think we both know that." Vick told McClure he still has a good relationship with Blank despite one of the most notorious exits from a team in league history. Blank did invite Vick and other former Falcon greats to the Georgia Dome on New Year's Day for a celebratory ceremony. The 36-year-old added that the Falcons are where his "identity lies as a player."
A hamstring injury limited Teez Tabor this week at Lions OTAs, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports. Tabor is not expected to start this year, Rothstein points out, but the second-round pick missing time during his developmental stage would bring a sharper learning curve. The Lions have 16-game starter Nevin Lawson as the likely frontrunner to open the season opposite Darius Slay, and they signed D.J. Hayden to a one-year deal.
Dorial Green-Beckham's Eagles roster spot is in trouble, Dave Zangaro of CSNPhilly.com opines. After the Eagles outfitted Jordan Matthews with outside hired guns in Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith, Zangaro expects Green-Beckham to fail to make the 53-man roster. Philadelphia's wide receiver group also houses Nelson Agholor and rookie fourth-rounder Mack Hollins. The 24-year-old Beckham, once the No. 1 recruit in the country coming out of high school, played extensively for the Eagles last season but didn't stand out. The former second-round Titans pick caught a career-high 36 passes but saw his yards-per-catch figure drop drastically, from 17.2 as a rookie to 10.9 in 2016. That said, Matthews, Jeffery and Smith could all be free agents after 2017 — Smith's deal has option years — so retaining a formerly coveted player with two years left on his contract might be prudent from a long-term perspective.
Nick Folk
NFC Notes: Saints, Cards, Seahawks, Packers
With just one year and $3.5MM guaranteed on his Saints contract, Adrian Peterson is far removed from those lavish salaries he collected in his final years with the Vikings. However, the relocated running back can collect some additional cash via incentives — some of which being attached to reasonable figures. The future Hall of Fame back has $2.75MM in incentives tied to various milestones in each of the next two years, Ben Volin of the Boston Globe tweets. The 32-year-old running back can collect incentive cash by rushing for 750 yards, scoring at least six touchdowns, or the Saints making the playoffs. Volin doesn't specify how much each milestone would pay out, but these aren't outrageous numbers. Peterson scored at least 10 touchdowns in all eight of his seasons that didn't involve a major September setback. However, with Mark Ingram in the picture, there won't be as many TD opportunities. Ingram has scored 25 touchdowns over the past three seasons.
Additionally, Volin notes a $750K roster bonus will be tied to Peterson's 2018 New Orleans employment. That's rather light compared to the massive $18MM option that was tied to the 2017 season on Peterson's Vikings contract. But a Saints return in what would be Peterson's age-33 season in '18 likely hinges on the running back's health.
Here's the latest out of the NFC.
The Cardinals are following through with their idea to flip their starting tackles. Jared Veldheer will move to right tackle, while third-year man D.J. Humphries' future will be on the left side. Veldheer initially voiced opposition to the move, one broached by OC Harold Goodwin, immediately after the 2016 season concluded, Kyle Odegard of AZCardinals.com notes. But the career left tackle is on board now. Humphries played left tackle at Florida and parlayed that performance into a first-round Cardinals draft selection in 2015.
Packers rookie linebacker Vince Biegel broke his foot, and the ensuing surgery leaves him questionable to be ready by the start of training camp, ESPN.com's Adam Schefter and Rob Demovsky report. The intent of this operation, done last week, was to repair a Jones fracture that also plagued him last season at Wisconsin, Demovsky writes. The latest in a slew of mid-round Packers 'backer picks, hasn't had a smooth transition into the NFL. A hand injury briefly sidelined him at rookie camp last weekend.
Speaking of positioning, the Saints sound like they might be willing to try Stephone Anthony at middle linebacker again. The Saints moved their underwhelming 2015 first-rounder to the strong side last year, but new linebackers coach Mike Nolan said middle 'backer suits Anthony best, Herbie Teope of NOLA.com notes. Anthony led the Saints in tackles as a rookie but was moved outside and then benched in 2016. And New Orleans added inside linebackers in Manti Te'o and A.J. Klein this offseason, complicating Anthony's path back to playing time.
The Seahawks used a sixth-round pick on Cincinnati safety Mike Tyson, but those rooting for the menacingly named defender to double as a hard-hitting back-line option in the Legion of Boom may be disappointed. Tyson was practicing at cornerback during the Seahawks' rookie minicamp, according to Sheil Kapadia of ESPN.com. Although, the 6-foot-2 defensive back drew a Byron Maxwell comparison from Pete Carroll, so that's a good start for a player who might be changing positions.
The Lions' second-round Teez Tabor investment came after GM Bob Quinn watched more film on the Florida corner than he has on any prospect during his 15-year evaluation career, Nate Atkins of MLive.com notes. The second-year Detroit GM estimated he watched about 14 Gators games with the primary purpose to see if Tabor played faster than his 4.62-second 40-yard dash clocking.

Lions Sign LB Jarrad Davis
May 12th, 2017 at 1:24pm CST by Zach Links
The Lions announced that they have signed eight of their nine draft picks, plus 14 undrafted free agents. The complete list:
Draft Signings:
1-21: Jarrad Davis, LB (Florida)
2-53: Teez Tabor, CB (Florida)
4-124: Jalen Reeves-Maybin, LB, Tennessee
4-127: Michael Roberts, TE (Toledo)
5-165: Jamal Agnew, DB (San Diego)
6-205: Jeremiah Ledbetter, DT (Arkansas)
6-215: Brad Kaaya, QB (Miami)
7-250: Pat O'Connor, DE (Eastern Michigan)
UDFAs:
Brandon Barnes, TE (Alabama State)
Alex Barrett, DE (San Diego State)
Dontez Ford, WR (Pittsburgh)
Tion Green, RB (Cincinnati)
Nick James, DT (Mississippi State)
Leo Koloamatangi, OL (Hawaii)
Desmond Lawrence, CB (North Carolina)
Storm Norton, OT (Toledo)
Michael Rector, WR (Stanford)
Maurice Swain, DT (Auburn)
Noel Thomas, WR (UConn)
Josh Thornton, CB (Southern Utah)
Robert Tonyan, TE (Indiana State)
Jeremiah Valoaga, DE (UNLV)
As far as draft picks go, Northern Illinois wide receiver Kenny Golladay is the only player that has yet to put pen to paper. The reason for the delay is not known, but third round picks often take longer to sign than other picks as things are less rigid in those slots.
Davis was said to be a target of the Dolphins at No. 22, so it's a good thing that the Lions were up at No. 21. Davis impressed scouts at his Pro Day when he posted a 4.56 40-yard dash and 38.5 inch vertical jump. As shown on Roster Resource, Davis may be in for a starting role in 2017.
Tabor fell to the Lions at No. 53 but some draft analysts, like NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah, felt that he should have gone much higher. The Florida product suffered a hamstring injury during his workout with Detroit and was unable to audition for other teams, so that might explain why he was still available. Then again, we've seen "pretend injuries" before, so it's possible there was a wink-wink deal between Tabor's team and the Lions.
Kaaya was said to have one of the highest football IQs of any quarterback in this year's class. It remains to be seen whether he has the arm to make it as an NFL quarterback, but the Lions believe that he can be a solid backup QB, at minimum.
According to Tom Pelissero of USA Today (on Twitter), Valoaga got $22K guaranteed ($12K bonus, $10K base) to sign with Detroit. Typically, UDFAs get around $5K, so that's a sign that Valoaga had at least a few teams interested in adding him to the 90-man roster.

NFC Draft Notes: Bears, 49ers, Saints, Lions
April 29th, 2017 at 9:02am CST by Ben Levine
Reports emerged last night that Bears head coach John Fox was unaware of his club's intention to draft North Carolina quarterback Mitch Trubisky until a "couple hours" before the draft. GM Ryan Pace subsequently denied those reports, saying his head coach is involved in all of the team's decisions.
"That stuff is so false," Pace said (via Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com). "There's consistency in everything we do, so we all work arm-in-arm and that's the way it is and that's the way it should be.
"John is involved in every decision deeply. The respect I have for John is enormous, especially his experience and all of the players that he's been with. I think if you look back — and we talked about this — I think a lot of it was kept secret I thought we did a good job keeping this thing pretty under wraps, it's so sensitive. But if you go back to the private workouts that we had, I mean John and I — it's pretty hard to hide him — but we're traveling to Chapel Hill and having dinners and workouts with Mitch, so he's been deeply involved from the very beginning."
Let's check out some other draft notes from around the NFC…
The Vikings reportedly approached the 49ers about trading for the 104th pick, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area (via Twitter). However, San Francisco wanted to guarantee that they'd get Iowa quarterback C.J. Beathard, so they rebuffed Minnesota's advances. Ironically, Minnesota was previously in possession of that pick.
The Saints were fans of Texas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes, general manager Mickey Loomis told Larry Holder of NOLA.com (Twitter link). However, with Ohio State cornerback Marshon Lattimore still being on the board, New Orleans wasn't too interested in moving up for the signal-caller. Mahomes was ultimately reelected 10th overall by the Chiefs.
UCLA cornerback Fabian Moreau's pectoral muscle is "looking great," tweets NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. This reassurance probably convinced the Redskins to take the defensive back with the 81st-overall pick.
The Lions selected cornerback Teez Tabor with the 53rd pick, despite the fact he suffered a hamstring injury during his workout with the team. Rapoport tweets that the Florida product didn't end up working out for any other teams.

From Meryl to Cher, Bask in the Glory of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again's A-List Cast
Mamma Mia Sequel Cast
July 20, 2018 by Quinn Keaney First Published: October 17, 2017
The Mamma Mia! sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, hits theaters this week, so we have free rein to freak out over how incredible the cast is. Not only does the sequel bring back all of the major players from the 2008 musical romance — like Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, and more — but it's also introducing us to a whole new set of faces. Since the movie is going to transition from present day on the Greek island of Kalokairi to flashbacks, we'll get to see what Donna, Sam, and the rest of the older characters were like in their heyday (aka shots of the Dynamos in all their glory). See the full cast ahead!

Transpose-up is moving octave down instead of up.
Posted: Sat Feb 09, 2019 2:18 pm Post subject: Transpose-up is moving octave down instead of up.
I used an SFX catalog program in a combi and then tried the Timbre-parameters transpose but it did nothing.
I first zoned the entire SFX catalog program down to one note. A3 note only.
And then needed to shift the A3 sample up to A4 note.
So i went to the program in that timbre and did the transpose in the program mode.
It worked but i assumed shifting A3 up +12 would make it A4.
Shifting +12, took my A3 down to A2.
So i had to shift -12 to get the A3 to go up to A4.
It is shifting up to take me down and shifting down to take me up.
At least i know what is going on and can work backwards for full function of the settings.
Also not sure why using transpose in Combi mode's timbre parameter did nothing at all. I will try to see if it is a conflict between having zoned the entire program down to a single note in program mode, and then leaving the combi timbre zoning open to all keys.
My headphones started working full again yesterday, after cutting out one side with the L/R mains as well. I am still using 3/4 indv. outs routing instead.
"To me the synthesizer was always a source of new sounds that musicians could use to expand the range of possibilities for making music."
Sounds right to me. If you think of a pitched sound like a piano, transposing to +12 means it plays an octave higher than it was before, so pressing the key A3 means it now plays the note A4 - i.e. the sample for note A4 has moved from key A4 down to key A3. As you transpose the pitch UP, the samples for each note move DOWN.
Exactly the same logic applies to unpitched samples like sound effects - the samples move down as you transpose up - so it seems confusing, but it does make sense!
Brilliant. I had to read it twice or thrice just to get the concept in the speil to sink in.
It did sink in. Thanks.
Transpose up means giving more key space to higher notes and thus lower notes have to get out of the way by moving down.
Amazing how a sample of a screaming chimpanzee can draw me in so much that i couldn't take the time to think through how a regular piano transposes notes physically on the key register.
I always listen to the transpose tonally and that made space in my head for the illusion that the keys are transposing up with the tone.
I was not thinking of myself as a backwards kind of guy, but appearantly i had a backwards mentality about transpose all along.
And it took a sample of a screaming chimpanzee to set me on course to evolve out of my backwards ways.
I read a research article about chimps having better short term memory than humans.
Like they are less likely to get up to go to the kitchen for a snack but instead find themsleves unzipped at the toilet and wondering why they are there without any urge to go.
Hmm. thanks. I feel evolved now.

Hey, it's the 'Blogs are out of control' Sheila again!
So Sheila has $45 billion in her checkbook and will, no doubt, order cake for her 75th Anniversary gala. Meanwhile, Washington Mutual is a $310 billion dollar bank. The article estimates that $20 billion of those assets (6%) are insured by FDIC. I don't know if I believe that.


The Eichholz Foundation has recently granted $5.5 million to the Santa Barbara Museum of Art to fund the museum's director position.
Mercedes Eichholz formed the foundation on behalf of herself and her late husband Robert to support the arts. In a news release, Eichholz said the foundation decided to fund the director position to add stability to the museum. "I hope this will encourage, even challenge, others in the community to step up and underwrite curatorial positions at the museum or otherwise contribute to its endowment fund," she said in the release.
Larry Feinherg currently holds the director post, and he is now known as the Robert and Mercedes Eichholz Director. "This is a major, transformative gift for the museum—it not only greatly helps the institution financially, but also an endowed director's chair elevates SBMA's stature," Feinberg said in the release.
SBMA, a privately funded nonprofit organization, is approaching its 75th anniversary. Board of trustees chair Ken Anderson said the foundation's gift will help the museum reach the goals it set for that landmark birthday.
The Eichholz family has supported the arts for decades. Mercedes and Robert joined the museum when they moved to Santa Barbara in 1979, and Mercedes became a trustee in 1985 and served as board president from 2001 to 2003. Since 1989, she has been a part of the Arts Endowment Committee, which is responsible for acquiring the museum's art.
