Palm Springs - American Patrick Reed fired a nine-under-par 63 for the third straight day to improve his lead to seven strokes after the third round of the Humana Challenge on Saturday.
Reed, who is looking for his second career USPGA Tour win, has a three day total of 27-under 189 which sets the record for lowest 54-hole score in relation to par in US tour history.
"It means a lot, but I'd rather set 72-hole records and year-end records," Reed said. "It's always good to have a 54-hole lead, especially with the one we have right now. We still have a lot of work to do and we have 18 holes tomorrow to get it done."
Charley Hoffman (66) and Brendon Todd (68) are tied for second at 20-under 196 at the PGA West golf club in La Quinta, 41 kilometres (25 miles) southeast of Palm Springs.
Sunday's final round will be played at the Arnold Palmer Private course which is one of three courses being used in the Pro-Am tournament. The other two are the Jack Nicklaus Private and La Quinta Country Club courses.
Reed played at PGA West's Jack Nicklaus Private Course Saturday. James Driscoll (66) is in sole possession of fourth at 19-under. Bill Haas (67) and Justin Leonard (65) are a stroke back of Driscoll.
Reed, who started at the 10th, came into Saturday's round with a two-shot lead over Todd. He quickly added to his advantage with a birdie on his first hole.
He drained another birdie at the 13th to move to 20-under and then tacked on another birdie at the 14th to extend his lead to five strokes.
An eagle at the 16th moved him to 23-under and gave him a commanding seven-stroke lead at the turn.
Reed went on to stick his approach to about five feet at the ninth and knocked in another birdie effort.
Reed said he not only wants to blow the field away on Sunday but he also wants to reach 62.
"To me it feels like a Monday, it's an 18-hole shootout and we all start at even par," Reed said.
"I plan on going out and trying to beat the whole field tomorrow, and make my lead not only bigger, but try to get that 62. I've had three days where I've had a chance to get 62 and I keep walking away with 63."
Scores after Saturday's third round of the $5.7m US PGA Tour Humana Challenge at the PGA West complex (par-72, USA unless noted):
189 - Patrick Reed 63-63-63
196 - Charley Hoffman 64-66-66, Brendon Todd 65-63-68
197 - James Driscoll 68-63-66
198 - Justin Leonard 66-67-65, Bill Haas 65-66-67

200 - Seung-Yul Noh (KOR) 68-66-66, Charlie Beljan 68-64-68, Keegan Bradley 69-66-65
201 - Jason Bohn 70-65-66, Zach Johnson 65-68-68, Chad Collins 68-68-65

Dazu meldeten sich auch einige erste Tester etwas kritischer zu Wort und berichten von Lags und Eingabeverzögerungen, was in einem Beta-Status durchaus normal ist. Dazu müssen auch immer die individuellen Begebenheiten beachtet werden. Welches Internet ist gerade verfügbar und auf welchem Gerät wird gespielt? Bei Project xCloud tragen derzeit noch viele Faktoren zu einem perfekten Erlebnis bei. Bis zur Veröffentlichung sollte es aber reibungslos auf allen Geräten mit gewissen Mindestanforderungen laufen.

Apart from the 5 goal explosion in the 3rd period of the Pittsburgh game, the Bruins have only managed 4 goals in their last 4 games. To be fair, they're missing Marc Savard: the quarterback of the Power Play unit. And David Krejci: the playmaker that's been spearheading the 1st line. But there are just so many players on this team that simply don't score goals. And that's fine, because they usually do something else. Shawn Thornton and his linemates bring energy. Andrew Ference has become a decent defenseman (when he doesn't try to go beyond being Andrew Ference). And role-players like Daniel Paille can at least participate in a decent penalty-kill.
But what does Blake Wheeler do?
Seriously, what's his purpose?
I'm still no Michael Ryder fan, as he remains a Hab in my eyes (although unlike a Canadien, he actually got penalized for his diving on Saturday). But Ryder has an identity. And in the 30% of the time he's actually playing well, he can score goals.
What's Blake Wheeler, though? Who is Blake Wheeler? What's his identity? Is he a grinder? No. An igniting energy guy? A playmaker? A high slot Glen Murray type? A low slot Mark Recchi type? A fighter? A scrapper? Does he win battles along the boards? Does he trigger the rush through the neutral zone? No. He does nothing but fail.
So many Bruins' offensive possessions end with Blake Wheeler having the last touch. And it's not because he's scored, it's because he's either missed the goal completely, or turned the puck over.
He had an easy scoring opportunity on Saturday. Bergeron made a brilliant drive to the net on a Power Play, found a slit of space between Elliot and the post, and as the puck lazily dribbled across the goal-line, all Wheeler had to do was use his stick as a pool cue and nudge the puck forward. Instead, he missed. Not the net, but the puck. The curved blade of his stick glided over the puck, almost as if Wheeler intended to not score. Then he literally punched the puck over, in a goal that was instantly disallowed.
The announcers called it "unlucky," I call it unimpressive, untalented, and unworthy of a spot on this team.
Oh, and remember when he completely missed the goalmouth on a breakaway? Aiming for Elliot's glove, he hit the glass behind the net.
And then there was the time he tried lobbing the puck into the offensive zone, only to miss all 6,000 square feet of the zone and launch the puck over the glass and into the stands.
It's time for Wheeler and his $2.2 million cap hit to be launched out of Boston, and I don't care if it's a trade, or if he's released, or if he's run out of town, or if he's quietly eliminated by the Newfoundland mafia.
Then there's Stuart. Who, to his credit, serves a purpose. I've always compared Stuart to cavemen, to Neanderthals. And he definitely brings that aggressive, physical savagery to the game. It's slightly scary for opponents when Mark Stuart is on the ice. Unless they're trying to score a goal. In which case, he's quite the helper.
His caveman aggression seems to come with caveman intelligence. And on Saturday, he again was a key part in an opponent's goal. This time, you can say Chris Neil got away with a light bit of interference on Ryder. Then again, Stuart was screening Thomas enough to make Sean Avery jealous and/or proud.
Stuart's giveaways, and his constant mishandling of the puck are verging on Dennis Wideman levels of sabotage. Stuart is a great physical force, but there's a reason why Neanderthals are extinct. And that's what Mark Stuarts should be in Boston.
The Bruins need to get offense from somewhere, but it won't come from the Blake Wheelers of the world. It also won't come from the Shawn Thorntons, Jordan Carons, Gregory Campbells, and Brad Marchands of the world. This team has a lot of fake-depth, in that filling out the lineup isn't a painful struggle, but there are very few truly good players you can put out there.
Goaltending, defense, and a grinding offense. Those are the things this team can do well. And the likes of Blake Wheeler can't grind. Neither can Michael Ryder. And the likes of Mark Stuart can't figure out how to play good defense. Adjustment is needed.
The Bruins host the Devils Monday night.

"The Cleveland game was an aberration." Yes it apparently was. But not to be a total buzzkill, so was this. It's true, the Patriots did go to Pittsburgh and dominate. They played well in all three aspects of the game. And they haven't had a road win this big in a very long time (November 4, 2007 @ Indianapolis, in my opinion).
But let's remember how forlorn we were a week ago. We should try to avoid getting too high after this win. Let's also remember that the Steelers played most of this game without Hines Ward. Taking Hines Ward from Ben Roethlisberger is like taking the bullets out of a gun.
That being said, the biggest difference between this week and last was the play of Tom Brady. He went from barely completing half his passes, to completing about 3/4. He was throwing deep, outside, inside, all over the place. He also ran for a touchdown on a nice goal-line read. When he brings his A Game, the Patriots become a very difficult team to beat. When he doesn't, they're essentially a .500 team.
Gronkowski must have had a good week of practice, as he was Brady's favorite target. And it worked out well. Three TD catches for the tight-end, who caught 5 passes total for 72 yards. 8 different receivers caught passes.
The offensive line has been simply stellar all year long. And the defense finally showed up with a consistent pass rush. But give an assist to Pittsburgh's shaky O-Line for that.
There's still plenty of football left to play, but at least the Pats are back on the right track, have a big road win under their belts, and enter a tough stretch of games on the right foot.
Indianapolis comes to Foxborough on Sunday.

August - Peridot
Peridot is one of the few gemstones that occur in only one color, an olive green. The intensity and tint of the green, however, depends on how much iron is contained in the crystal structure, so the color of individual peridot gems can vary from yellow- to olive- to brownish-green. The most valued color is a dark olive-green.
As peridot is a gemstone that forms deep inside the Earth and brought to the surface by volcanoes, in Hawaii, peridot symbolizes the tears of Pele, the goddess of fire and volcanoes. Today, most of the peridot supply comes from Arizona; other sources are China, Myanmar, and Pakistan. This gemstone comes in several color variations ranging from yellowish green to brown, but most consumers are attracted to the bright lime greens and olive greens. Peridot, in smaller sizes, often is used in beaded necklaces and bracelets.
Mystical Properties
Peridot is told to have the ability to bring healing and vitality to the whole body. It it said to increase patience, confidence and assertiveness. Stories told since ancient times about how this gemstone has the ability to slow the aging process. The joyful and friendly energy of this stone helps to make and seal friendships, it clears the heart, releases the ego, which in turn cleanses jealousy and anger, hence bringing about a sense of peace and quiet amusement.

I recently came across what I think can be a very effective tool in evangelizing the Present Truth. It's especially good for the shy babe in Christ that wants to spread the word, but feel too inept to speak it intelligently enough. In today's world with all the technological advances, we find many ways to do the work the Lord would have us do. With the invention of the printing press, Bibles, books, and tracts were printed and handed out. Soon after, radio was invented, and so the Christian found another avenue to share the Gospel message. Then came the telephone, TV, newspapers, magazines, audio cassettes, CD's, DVD's Internet, and now Bluevangelizing.
What's Bluevangelizing?
Almost everyone out there has a cell phone. And most of the cell phones today have BlueTooth technology. For those unaware, BlueTooth allows the people with those things stuck in their ears to maintain a wireless connection with their cell phones allowing them to talk without having to carry their phone. They can leave their phone in their pocket or purse and answer the phone with a touch of a button. So, how can we use this to preach?
A quick definition of BlueTooth is as follows…
Bluetooth uses a radio technology called frequency-hopping spread spectrum, which chops up the data being sent and transmits chunks of it on up to 79 frequencies. In its basic mode, the modulation is Gaussian frequency-shift keying (GFSK). It can achieve a gross data rate of 1 Mb/s. Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices such as mobile phones, telephones, laptops, personal computers, printers, Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, digital cameras, and video game consoles through a secure, globally unlicensed Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) 2.4 GHz short-range radio frequency bandwidth. The Bluetooth specifications are developed and licensed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG). The Bluetooth SIG consists of companies in the areas of telecommunication, computing, networking, and consumer electronics.[4] –Source
If you have a PDA, or smart phone with Bluetooth (99% do have it) you can send just about anything from text files to pictures through the air to a cell phone, laptop, printer, or any other device with Bluetooth. So, how do you Bluevangelize with it?
The other day I was in Walmart with my wife. As she did her shopping, I went browsing about like I usually do. I decided to test Bluevangelizing out to see if it works good enough to consider making a page on the site. I turned the Bluetooth on in my PDA. Then I opened a doc file I created earlier. (see below) Instead of printing I hit "beam" to send the file to any Bluetooth device near me. Depending on the strength of your Bluetooth, you can send that file pretty far. Some Bluetooth devices can beam upwards of 300 feet! (100 meters) I actually got "connections" as I was driving in traffic that I was able to send off. After I hit "beam" the device automatically started searching for other devices near me. Immediately I had 10 Bluetooth capable devices near by popup on the screen. When all was said and done, upwards of 80 devices were found! Some were form Walmart itself, some unknown, and many were from personal cell phones. As the "finds" were popping up, they also had a link that said, "tap to send." So I did. As I tapped on the first 10, I noticed a few people instantly grab their cell phones to look at who was contacting them. All of them appeared to click "ignore" and put their phones back in their pockets. Still, they did "see" what I sent.
To make a long story short, I "tapped to send" to at least 80 people in less than 10-15 minutes. Out of those 80, 3 actually "agreed" to receive the file I was sending. But the nice thing was, ALL 80 saw the "name" of my phone. What's the name of my phone? "RemnantofGodorg" is what I named it. Why did I do that? Think about it… I named it that because some would reject the file I was sending. This way, they can still see the website address, and hopefully remember to view it when they get home. As for the 3 that did actually agree to receive see the file I sent? What did they see? All I send is a small note talking about the site. The following is what I plan to send out next time I do this…
See 6000+ pages of historic facts matched to Christian prophecies at www.RemnantofGod.org that expose who the REAL Antichrist is! How do we know who he is? Prophecy predicted we would right before the end…
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?" –2 Thessalonians 2:3-5
For videos on this topic, go to www.John1429.org
God bless
It took all of 1 or 2 seconds to send the file to each person, and all of 10 minutes to "discover" 80 people to send it to. So.. the next time your waiting in line at the store, in the mall, at the library, or just sitting on a bench in the mall, or on the bus. Try Bluevangelizing and you will see how much joy you can get out of preaching the present truth with dozens of people in just a few minutes time!

I'm still very much in recovery mode at this point. Even two days after what could easily have amounted to the most mentally exhausting and exhilarating night of my life, I'm still feeling the irritating chafe of the sunburn that blotched up my skin in the most random locations, I still can't completely wash off the purple Sharpie number that was scrawled onto my forearm by a turbaned man at around eight o'clock in the morning, and of course, my body is taking forever and a day to recalibrate after going two and a half nights without a single hour of quality sleep.
I'm talking, of course, about the awesomely painful, physically draining and absurdly euphoric experience of having general admission tickets to a rock concert. I'm sure a lot of you have experienced the delirium of temporarily treating your body like a scientific experiment. For those of you who want to relive the joys and minor irritations of marathon sitting, muscle soreness, dehydration and emotional instability, I've decided to document my experience in pictures.
My best friend (fellow diehard U2 head-slash-Stony Brook student) and I wandered into the parking lot of Giants Stadium in a trancelike state at around eight-thirty in the morning. We left our hometown (about twenty minutes from campus) at around six. Even so, a solid 176 people had already beaten us there.
(She was number 177).
This would be the pen, (more commonly known as the line) site of countless tour tee-shirts, fold-out chairs, economy-sized snack food bags, sun-shielding umbrellas and several hundred jittery U2 fanatics. Roped off with police tape every hundred people or so, it was really sort of like a corral. Seriously, I'm surprised the staff didn't throw feed pellets on the ground for us to eat.
This is where we sat for a solid eight hours (in an unusually strong sun, might I add). I got seriously burned through my jeans, if that's any indication. I'd like to personally thank the weatherman for calling for partial cloudiness for the entire week. Way to go, Fox 5.
In any regard, this is where we sat, drinking from a gallon jug of Poland Spring and anxiously checking the time every ten minutes on my friend's Blackberry (customized with U2 wallpaper and an unforgivably loud "Pride (in the Name of Love)" ringtone).
Is it just me, or does time seem to pass obnoxiously slowly during the moments in which you absolutely most want it to move forward? Much to my dismay, trying to go to sleep did virtually nothing to beat the waiting game. I tried to doze off a couple of times, (after all, I needed my energy to outsprint dozens of potentially crazier fans than myself to secure a spot on the inside rail by the stage) and I can't even explain how annoying it was to see that only fifteen minutes had passed after I woke up (and that I was still, say, a good five or six hours from experiencing musical nirvana).
Around three-thirty, we finally got the okay to start queuing for the security check. Although I probably would have appreciated if someone had bothered to tell us that we were going to be standing there on the hot asphalt for another two hours, I must admit, being crammed into a small, uncomfortable space with hundreds of uber-fans did allow for some pretty good photo op.
Ah, the tour shirt-staple cotton emblem of the dedicated tour bus-chaser. There was certainly no shortage of them at this show, some of them dating back to the Joshua Tree Tour of 1987.
Easily the most amazing jacket I've ever seen (modeled loosely on Bono's signature black vest from the War Tour of 1983, although, believe it or not, he actually wasn't so big on the shades back then).
I'm sure that by this point, the owner of this bag was getting pretty suspicious of the sunburned college kid who was aggressively photographing her fully amazing Bono tote. I have to say, G.A. ticket-holders are a pretty insightful group of people. This woman's tee-shirt actually read "Bono for President."
"Walk On" was a standout track from U2's 2000 album "All That You Can't Leave Behind." This suitcase is a standout tattoo from a very expressive uber-fan.
Starting around six o'clock, things got serious. I have to say, after nearly two years out of the track scene, I had completely forgotten what it was like to stand on the starting line before a race. In any case, after waiting around-completely idle-for eight straight hours on a baking concrete slab, you can imagine the anticipation we all experienced as we waited for the staff to open the gates. Not that they didn't mess with us, might I add. I can't even count the number of times that they completely faked us out just by moving in the general direction of the lock.
In addition, my best friend had spent about ten minutes briefing me on the best strategy to secure an amazing spot on the floor with all the intense, sheltered secrecy of an F.B.I. agent. However, because I had never seen a picture of the stage (truly an act of blasphemy for a fan of my caliber), her complex plot for glory essentially went right over my head. All I understood was that I had to make a left and use my camera to beat down other fans if they happened to get in my way.
After my ticket was scanned, it was a solid 300 meters of hysteria to the main floor past the tired-looking staff members who half-heartedly warned us to slow down. We managed to throw ourselves against the catwalk that jutted out from the stage, and sat on the sacred ground we'd claimed, trying not to hyperventilate for a good ten minutes after (my current fitness level is pretty staggering).
Opening act Muse performed a six-song set that most likely deafened about 80 percent of the audience.
Finally, after another good forty minutes of hang time during which the $4.50 water bottle-mongers cleared out, and I impatiently wiggled my way through a full recording of David Bowie's "Space Oddity," I got my very first glimpse of them…
Okay…so it was a blurry glimpse. The point is that it was the glimpse that I had been waiting for ever since I first heard U2's "Beautiful Day" at age 12.
I was actually emitting girlish squeals I never dreamed would come out of my mouth (I was, after all, the designated 'quiet kid' all through high school) and bopping around Giants Stadium like one of those inflatable punching bags.
Within the first twenty minutes, I had the guitarist and bassist I had idolized since my early teens literally about a foot in front of my very unattractively spellbound face…
The usually discreet drummer who is known for sort of 'hiding' behind his drumkit was taking a full lap around the catwalk…
And somehow, enduring eight hours with an impossibly sore butt suddenly became entirely worth it to me. This, I guess, is exactly why we do these things. This is why, to quote the great Seal, "we're never gonna survive unless we get a little bit crazy."
Sometimes insanity is what we need to find true catharsis and happiness. Granted, I got obscenely lucky that my first concert of all time happened to be G.A. tickets for U2.
However, I have to put in a good word for those sweet little moments that just remind us 'why.' Really, don't you just love those epileptic fits of frenetic energy that remind us that 'crazy' can be worth it? Look, a lot of us are getting ready to graduate, or are at least steadily approaching that point day by day. Now really is the time to have as many of these moments as we can, to really get in as much of that worthwhile craziness as time will allow.
For those of you hardcore bookworms who wouldn't dream of skipping a day's worth of classes, (a fun crowd I was a part of literally up until the moment I actually SAW Bono the Great prancing around the stage in platform shoes) when you're more or less face to face with [insert idol of your choice], you'll get it, too.

The Planning and Accountability Working Party (PWP) promotes high standards of integrated planning and policy development, and the associated accountability and reporting arrangements. The PWP primarily focuses on planning and reporting under the Local Government Act 2002, district planning, spatial/integrated strategic planning, and the planning requirements of other legislation.
- Monitor the environment within which local authorities operate and provide the Executive with timely advice on issues that fall within its responsibilities.
- Develop and present sector responses on issues in response to developments in the policy and operational environment, or in anticipation of such developments. Development of such responses may be in conjunction with other bodies (for example, Local Government New Zealand and the New Zealand Planning Institute).
- Identify good practice in local authority planning and disseminate this to the local government sector.
- Identify training and professional development needs relevant to planning, and develop or commission programmes to meet those needs.
- Build relationships with those stakeholders with interests in, or the ability to influence, planning policy and practice in local authorities.

2017/18 Report from the Acting Planning and Accountability Working Party Chair
Wendy Walker, Chief Executive, Porirua City Council
With 2017/8 being LTP year, my first year as Working Party Chair has been a relatively quiet one.
Our main focus for the year has been in ensuring that SOLGM and the sector are well placed to capture the lessons from the 2018 LTP round. During the year we've progressed the review of the methodology for the:
- LTP debriefing (which has just gone to LTP Project Managers as I write this)
- Review of the 2018 crop of financial and infrastructure strategies (which includes the first two combined financial and infrastructure strategies).
A record 56 local authorities have entered this year's SOLGM Great CD competition. I look forward to seeing the announcement at this year's Community Plan Conference in August.
One of our main shop windows for the year is the annual Community Plan Forum, which this year was held at Mac's Brewery and Function Centre, Wellington. I'm advised there were 96 attendees this year with the event scoring a perfect 100% audience evaluation on the two dimensions that SOLGM uses as performance measures. Members of the Planning and Accountability Working Party (PWP) noted a lot of new faces at the event this year, which may suggest a higher than usual level of turnover amongst corporate planning staff. The support of our sponsors BERL and .id is gratefully acknowledged.
This year SOLGM also 'rebooted' the Communications Forum as the Communications and Engagement Forum. The event, held in November in Queenstown, attracted a more than respectable 68 attendees and received 98% audience ratings for usefulness of the learning and satisfaction with the overall event.
I thank the following people for their contribution to the PWP during the year: Sheryl Bryant, Susan Edwards, Michael Hodder, David McCorkindale, Rebecca Perrett, Katherine Quinn and David Totman. The PWP gratefully acknowledges the assistance of staff from the Office of the Auditor-General and Karen Thomas' team in National Office.
We were encouraged to hear that for the second straight LTP round no local authority has received an adverse audit opinion on either the consultation document or the LTP proper. This has always been viewed as one of the preconditions for entering into a serious discussion with central government about the checks and balances on LTPs. This should form part of the Long Term Plan debrief with central government.

Operating system is basically a system program which is a medium between all the computer hardware components and the application softwares.
Through operating system, user/programmer can use their application program to communicate with computer components to perform their required computing tasks.
Without an operating system, application programs and computer hardware is nothing and users can't do anything their computing tasks.
Operating systems perform the following two functions:
The operating system's function is to present the user with the equivalent of an extended or virtual machine, that is easier to program than the underlying hardware.
Operating system basically provides a variety of services that programs can obtain using special instructions called system calls.
Let's imagine that three programs present on some computers. All tied to print their output simultaneously on the same printer. Then the first few lines might be from the first program, second program, or third program and the next few lines might also be from the first program, second program, or the third program and so on.
In this way, the printout result of all the three programs would be chaos. Therefore, here in this case operating system can bring order by buffering all the output destined for the printer on the disk. When one program is finished, then operating system copy its output from the disk file where it has been stored to the printer, while at the same time the other program can continue generating more output.
In this manner, operating system can perform for all the programs to print their actual output in a correct way.

In the last week or so, the debate about testing in the US took a significant new direction with a decree from the President, Barack Obama with the headline – "We've been doing too much testing." Here's a New York Times story with more background on the issues:
New York Times – Calls for Limits on Testing in Schools
There is real irony in this story and the way that it's reported. Politicians dictating to educators about how children will be educated. For example, no clues are given as to how they've arrived at this figure of 2% of instructional time to be given to testing. As the article quite rightly suggests, with testing not defined, who decides what forms part of the 2%? Also, if the testing is rubbish it doesn't matter whether it occupies 2% of a student's learning time in school – it's still going to be wasted time.
Further, we have to be realistic. part of the problem with high stakes testing isn't the actual time the tests take to conduct. it's all the other associated lost time that worries me. If, as is often the case, teachers are going to find their performance assessed according to the performance of the students in the exams, we can hardly be surprised that the teachers turn over large amounts of learning time to 'test preparation'. Before you know it, even with one annual cycle of exams, way more time is lost in revision lessons, exam priming sessions, practicing for the processes of answering the exam questions etc. Before you know it, learning to excel in the exam has become far more important than learning.
Then, in most Indian schools, my experience suggests that combined pressure from the parents, the students and the teachers will see one exam take place per day, with the remainder of the day written off for the child to go home and 'mug up' for the next. Then, there are often some days declared as 'non-instructional' while the teachers do the marking of the exam papers. Then, we lose some more learning focus and time whilst everyone fills themselves with angst about the results afterwards.
The net effect in an academic year that typically amounts to about 190 school days is that, easily over 10% of learning time is lost to this process. I have always felt that this was truly bizarre if the purpose is really to check progress and point the way for future learning.
So, while the US tackles the mess it's got itself into with a new limit on testing time, the Indian educators need to take a long cold hard look at the entrenched habits of examinations.
School must be for learning, not testing.

By Susan Green, IWPR Affiliated Researcher
Most recent revelations of workplace sexual misconduct have come from high-profile industries: movies, TV news, professional sports, performing arts, high-tech, and electoral politics, among others. But sexual harassment is at least as common on many blue-collar job sites which may explain, in part, why so few women dare to venture into the construction trades. An IWPR report on women working in construction describes the very challenging conditions in that industry.
Drawing on a 2013 IWPR interview study of women working in the building trades, the report details women's employment, earnings, and work experiences as the construction industry emerged from the 2007-09 recession. Construction jobs give women—and men—a chance to earn family-sustaining wages without a college education. For millions of women, however, this opportunity never materializes. Despite decades of federal policies aimed at increasing the number of women in construction, women's share of these jobs nationally has remained under 4 percent.
For the more than 200,000 women who do work in construction, the experience can be decidedly mixed. The majority of women report being treated mostly equally when it comes to safety, formal training, and use of tools on the construction job site. One woman declared that "at my job men and women get equal training."
Yet, being treated as an equal on the job and with respect is another matter. According to the report, 31 percent of women say that sexual harassment is a constant or frequent experience at work, and 32 percent of respondents of color report frequent racial harassment and discrimination. Sexual orientation discrimination is even more common; 37 percent of respondents who identify as lesbian, gay, or transgender say that they frequently face discrimination or harassment based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. One woman states flatly, "Gender discrimination is rampant, constant, and considered normal in that industry."
In addition, roughly 40 percent of women say that, compared to their male co-workers, they are rarely if ever treated equally in hiring and work hour assignments. Working fewer hours means lower pay, and it also can have pernicious long-term effects, especially for apprentices; working fewer hours prolongs the apprenticeship period that comes with a lower training wage, and postpones workers' qualification for journey-level status and a higher pay rate. Discriminatory hiring and work hour allocation can substantially reduce women's incomes well into the future.
The report finds especially challenging conditions for women when it comes to promotions, with nearly six in ten women reporting that they are not treated equally. Inequitable promotion practices limit women's earnings, damage their careers, and may also block systemic change in the construction industry. Women in supervisory positions can be role models for other women and can help level the playing field throughout the building trades.
Although over one in ten women in the building trades report having filed a charge of discrimination with the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), only a minority of these feel that their claims were successfully addressed. By contrast, many women say they usually sort out the problem themselves, often with the help of male co-workers. One woman describes her "solidarity-based method for coping with harassment [….] My union brothers have helped me without resorting to legal reporting." As another explains, "There is usually at least one jerk per job, but the majority of my coworkers are decent humans."
Finally, it is important to note that the report offers an incomplete picture of women in construction. Only women who remain in the building trades participated in the underlying survey. The report does not capture the views of the many women who leave construction altogether, whether for higher pay, better promotion opportunities, or a harassment-free workplace. One can only guess how many of those women have recently tweeted #MeToo.

Seaside Therapeutics LLC has announced that the Company has initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial of STX107, a highly potent, selective mGluR5 antagonist, in development for the treatment of Fragile X Syndrome.
The single ascending dose study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of STX107 in healthy volunteers. Fragile X Syndrome is the most common inherited form of mental impairment and the most common known cause of autism.
"Individuals with Fragile X and other related brain development disorders need effective therapeutics directed towards the underlying disease pathophysiology, rather than just the associated symptomatic behaviors," said Thomas R. Insel, M.D., Director of the National Institute of Mental Health. "The NIH is committed to funding groundbreaking basic scientific research to understand the etiology of Fragile X Syndrome with the ultimate goal of translating the resulting discoveries into novel therapeutics. Development of Seaside Therapeutics' novel drug candidate, STX107, is representative of the promise of these efforts."
Randall L. Carpenter, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Seaside Therapeutics added, "Initiation of the STX107 safety study is a momentous first step in the development of a potentially disease-modifying treatment for brain development disorders, such as Fragile X Syndrome and autism. Currently, there are no FDA approved drugs to enhance cognitive function for these disorders. We believe that normalizing signaling in the mGluR5 pathway with STX107 provides a compelling opportunity to correct or improve the course of Fragile X Syndrome, which could create a meaningful and lasting improvement in the lives of patients and their families."
STX107 was selected for development based on the research of Seaside's scientific founder, Mark Bear, Ph.D., Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator and Picower Professor of Neuroscience at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr. Bear discovered a connection between mGluR5 signaling and Fragile X Syndrome that suggests most, if not all, of the neurological and psychiatric consequences of Fragile X Syndrome can be accounted for by exaggerated signaling through mGluR5 receptors.
Based upon these insights, Seaside licensed and is developing a novel series of compounds targeting this receptor, including the lead compound STX107. Seaside has demonstrated that STX107 effectively normalizes function of the mGluR5 signaling pathway in genetically engineered animal models of Fragile X. This research played a critical role in the selection of STX107 for continued development and provides a further link between Dr. Bear's insight into the biology of Fragile X Syndrome and small molecule antagonists of the mGluR5 receptor.
Seaside has been awarded translational research grants to support the development of STX107 from the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, Autism Speaks, FRAXA and the Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act.

AGPS refers to a GPS satellite orbit information data that can help the watch to perform GPS positioning faster。
While keeping your watch connected to your phone's Bluetooth, the watch regularly synchronizes and updates AGPS data with the Amazfit App on a daily basis. If watch hasn't sync with your Amazfit App for 7 days, the AGPS data will expire. The positioning speed may be affected when AGPS expires, so the watch will remind you to update when you begin an activity.

News and Stories
UPDATE: Idaho Potatoes
Reports from Idaho potato growers indicate that harvests will be complete by the end of this week. Growers will soon have control of supply levels and will hold back shipments to push prices above the low levels seen for the past several weeks. Demand will exceed supply. Markon requests that members place orders three to five days earlier than their normal patterns to ensure fulfillment.
Once the Thanksgiving pull begins in early November, carton prices will begin to decline as growers will need more raw product to produce orders for retail bags. Producing more retail bags means more large-size potatoes are packed into cartons, creating a supply-exceeds-demand situation for foodservice.
- Markon First Crop (MFC) Norkotah Potatoes are readily available
- Limited supplies of packer label Burbanks are also on the market
- MFC Burbank Potato stocks will be placed in storage sheds until the sweat process is complete
- Burbank stocks will undergo the sweat process to shed excess moisture after being harvested
- The process lasts approximately three to four weeks or until the outer skin is cured sufficiently
- After the sweat process is complete, skins will have a smooth, net-like appearance
- MFC Burbank Potatoes will begin shipping from storage the week of October 31
Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.

Whether India should have a caste based reservation system or not has long been a point of debate. This issue was recently highlighted with the news of Congress vouching to push for a 'job quota' for the underprivileged sections of the society in the private sector. According to the party, this would enable the growth in the coming years to be more equitable and inclusive. However the news has attracted a lot of criticism by the opposition and certain sections of the Industry. Manish Sabharwal, the founder of a recruitment consultancy in India, in an interview with Business Standard went on to call the proposal an 'economic insanity' given the informality in the labour market in India.
Are we ready to compromise on growth?
The private sector is known for its innovation and performance and bringing the quota system in this sector would impede upon the progress of nation which is reliant on this sector for generation of new ideas and building a competitive advantage. Reservation of such kind will create a workforce incapable of meeting international standards resulting in loss in competitiveness of industries and promotion inclusion at the cost of growth.
Given the current situation in India where growth has slid down from an average of 8.5% before the crisis to a 4.5% in the previous decade, the government's focus should be on getting the economy back on track and making the labour force more capable.
The reservation system in India started with an objective of uplifting the underprivileged sections of the society, who were earlier discriminated against in the deep rooted caste system in India. However the reservation system of the kind that is prevalent in India is working to uplift one section of the society at the cost of the other. What India has to failed to do is this context is to build capacity. Mere provision of a place in a company or education institute would not help in uplifting the weaker section, the concentration should be on generation of skill and competitiveness.
India as a nation is battling many challenges when it comes to its labour regulations. And till the time the labour laws are not made more flexible, we cannot imagine the reservation system to help in creating more jobs. Given this, the proposal also comes with the risk of leading to an increase in the unemployment rate following the displacement of people in the private sector. Another cause of concern is that the reservation policies when misused add to the corruption in the economy, robbing the deserved candidates of their right.
Empower the underprivileged rather than sympathising with them.
If reservation of any kind has to be put into place it should be at the very basic level. As mentioned earlier, the focus should be on creation of capabilities and skill. For any nation to grow, the best minds must be put to use. The quality of the education system in India needs to be uplifted in order to provide a equitable platform for all sections of the society to compete fairly. While programs like the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (Campaign for Education for All) have helped, the current state of school facilities is far from satisfactory, with a major proportions of primary schools in the country still without essentials such as drinking water, toilets, furniture, teaching aids and books, playgrounds and computers. The learning achievements of students in semi-urban and rural areas is poor as compared to their counterparts in urban areas. The high student drop-out rates and teacher absence rates raise further questions on the effectiveness of the education system. As a nation we should hope to empower the underprivileged rather than sympathising with them and giving them the option to escape the hard route. Offering them the same quality of education and training will go a long way in developing them and helping them rise above the 'underprivileged' status.
A second way of promoting inclusive growth would be creation of jobs through simplification of labour laws which prevent companies to hire contract labour in their core business activities.
The reservation system is fair as far as it creates skills and makes the underprivileged more employable. For this it is imperative for the government to identify the section that needs to be uplifted and support them with financial aid and capacity building (free quality education and training). Focusing on reservations in jobs as a way of uplifting the weaker sections is a very myopic view of the situation. These people need to be made tougher and capable of fighting out a fair battle.

This procedure can only be done as part of a research study. This is because there is not enough evidence to be sure how well it works or how safe it is.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate. It can block or narrow the tube (urethra) that urine passes through to leave the body, causing urination problems. In this procedure, a tiny wire device is inserted into the urethra. It expands to create new permanent channels in the lining of the urethra. It stays in place for 5 to 7 days and is then removed. The aim is to increase the flow of urine.
The NHS website may be a good place to find out more. NICE's information on interventional procedures guidance has more about what a procedure is and how we assess them.
Is this procedure right for me?
If you've been offered this procedure, your healthcare professionals should discuss with you what is involved, and explain the research study, and tell you about the risks and benefits. They should talk with you about your options, and listen carefully to your views and concerns. Your family can be involved too, if you wish. All of this should happen before you agree (consent) to have the procedure and to be in the study. You should also be told how to find more information about the procedure. Read more about making decisions about your care.
Some questions to think about
- What does the procedure involve?
- What are the possible benefits? How likely am I to get them?
- What are the risks or side effects? How likely are they?
- What happens if the procedure doesn't work or something goes wrong?
- What happens if I don't want the procedure? Are there other treatments available?

text: Journalists have been attacked while covering the elections The organisation was particularly concerned with recent harassment and reports of assault on journalists covering the the first round of Egyptian legislative elections on 8 November 2005. The worldwide press freedom organisation called on the Egyptian authorities to carry out thorough and serious investigations into these events. "We urge the authorities to see to it that the law is respected and that journalists are allowed to carry out news-gathering in complete freedom and safety," it said. "Crude and brutal intimidation of journalists should have no place in Egypt. We also call on President Hosni Mubarak to act to halt this harassment," it added. Presenter assaulted Reporters Without Borders also pointed out Aljazeera's Ahmed Mansour, presenter of the programme Bela Hudud (Without Borders), who was beaten by two men in front of his office in the Egyptian capital on the evening of 9 November. After checking his identity, the two men beat him, breaking his glasses and leaving him with a neck injury before fleeing. Aljazeera show host AhmedMansour was assaulted in CairoHe said: "Two men approached me and asked if I am Ahmed Mansour. As soon as I replied 'yes' they started punching me in the face, which left me in shock and pain, with broken glasses and a bruised cheek and forehead. "I still had to face the viewers and my guest who was the chairman of al-Wafd, an opposition party candidate running in the current elections in Egypt." When Mansour made his live broadcast 30 minutes later with his injuries clearly visible to viewers, he said: "Egypt should protect its honest sons." Reporters Without Borders also mentioned attacks and harassment on several other Egyptian reporters. The Egyptian government has not commented on the statement or the attacks on journalists.

In a press release the organizers of the annual rodeo tournament known as the Greeley Stampede announced that they will be moving the event to the up-market community of Boulder, some 40 miles to the West. Spokeswoman Stormy Ryder of the Stampede granted an interview to Trib reporter Ludwig Schnee. "The problem with Greeley is that it stinks to high hell! I heard there's a feedlot there, and that's what makes the place reek enough to gag a rodeo clown. So, we're moving our show to Boulder. On top of that, it appears that our concession stands are selling way too many snacks that have entirely too much salt, sugar and fat. Barbecued ribs, cotton candy and fried crap will give you diabetes, clog your arteries and give you a heart attack. In short, we're killing our fans- slowly and painfully. We're calling it quits on that. The Boulder community, with its foodies and organic vegetable suppliers are sure to offer our fans much healthier snacks. Who doesn't crave organic kale salads, non-GMO tofu or carrot juice smoothies while watching a cowboy get bucked by a wild bronco?"
It appears the Stampede organizers also want to change the demographics of their audience, "Our fans have for too long been predominantly rural, working-class, conservative and Caucasian- precisely the kind of people that are on the downturn in America today. We need to be hip and appeal to a more diverse audience; this year, we started out the transition by bringing [African-American country singer] Darius Rucker, but next year, we're planning on having [rapper] Jay-Z. Not only that, but seriously, how much money can you make off of broke-ass white people from the boonies of Poo-Dunk, USA? Don't those folks blow all their money on cigarettes, cheap beer and meth? If we're gonna be true America-loving capitalists, and make some real bucks, we gotta appeal to the folks with the dough: hipster liberal, urban types who think they're diverse. What's the 'Numero Uno' place for that here in Colorado? Boulder, of course, though Fort Collins isn't too far behind. Lastly, we want to break the hetero/cis-normative, stigma of the hyper-macho sport of rodeo, and become fully inclusive of the LGBTQ+ community of Northen Colorado. Again, what's the epicenter of that in the Centennial State?"
In other news, area restaurants, construction sites and landscaping businesses have suffered record-high absenteeism, with workers calling in sick a day after Mexico's 2-1 win over South Korea in a World Cup Soccer qualifier. Liquor stores also report record-high sales of Tecate, Corona and Dos Equis beers as well as tequilas of all kinds.

Last Thursday, a man was killed in a trailer-loading incident that happened near Lompoc. According to Santa Barbara's Noozhawk, the incident happened in the 2300 block of Sweeney Road. Very little information has been released about this fatal incident, but we do know that a man was pinned between a truck and trailer while he was loading it. The man was a vineyard worker in the local area.
He was reportedly trying to load a forklift onto the trailer at the time of the incident. For currently unknown reasons, the truck and trailer began to slide and jackknifed. The man was pinned between the truck and trailer when he tried to get out of the cab. Cal-OSHA representatives have been notified, and the situation is likely still under investigation.

Posted at 17:00h in Uncategorized
Credentials: M.A., CCC-SLP
Hours of Operation: Monday - Friday; 8:00 am - 6:00 pm
Treatment locations: Office/Clinic|Home
14 S. Locust St.
Dexter, Missouri 63841
Phone: (573) 820-2144
Email: email@example.com
Overall Treatment Approach:
When possible, I recommend short frequent therapy sessions. I spend time with the child and the family to determine what the child's interests are and then do my best to incorporate those interests into the therapy targets. If the child has no functional communication, the family and I will work to create some method of communication for that child. This may include sign language, picture communication, augmentative communication apps, or a combination of methods. At the same time that we are helping that child be able to communicate his/her wants and needs, we also begin to work on improving motor planning for speech. Therapy will begin at the level at which the child can be most successful. If that is at the vowel level, then the child will be taught to use those vowels to approximate the target word. The family will be taught as well to praise these word approximations. Consonant sounds will be probed and the work will begin to combine consonants with vowels to produce closer approximations of the target words. Cueing will be used as needed and may include visual, verbal and/or tactile cueing.
Percent of CAS cases: 5
Parent Involvement:
Most of the children that I work with are in the birth - 3 population. It is imperative that the child's parents be involved in all aspects of the therapy. I ask parents to sit in for all therapy sessions and give specific recommendations for how they can help their child continue to work on improving their speech between therapy sessions.
Community Involvement:
I have not been involved in the apraxia community. I do refer families of children with apraxia or suspected apraxia to this website.
Professional consultation/collaboration: Yes
Min Age Treated: birth
Max Age Treated:
Insurance Accepted: Yes

The antique Tibetan singing bowl was hand picked by DharmaShop founder, Sander Cohen, from a stunning and superior collection of antique bowls from Kathmandu.
This is a medium-large sized, beautifully aged, hand hammered singing bowl. Truly a one-of-a-kind bowl with gorgeous signs of age and wear including tiny hand etched has marks. With these antique details and a rich tone, it shows and sings beautifully.
Bowl rings at a A note when struck with a woolen mallet. This note resonates with the Third Eye Chakra. When this chakra is balanced, we are able to better connect to our intuition and imagination, visualize, concentrate, have insight, enlightenment and a finely tuned awareness.
Bowl measures approximately 7 3/4 inches in diameter and is about 4 inches deep. Comes with a traditional wooden striker.
All sound recordings are made by striking the bowl once with our Handcrafted Red Wool Mallet.
