John Scali's honors chemistry class has students solve problems like real scientists do.
Remote Science Instruction in High School Biology and Chemistry
By eSchool News
Carolina delivers hands-on solution to meet school districts' call for robust remote and distanced hands-on science resources for teachers
Leading school science supplier Carolina Biological Supply Company introduced a new product line to help high schools provide high-quality, hands-on science instruction during COVID-19 disruptions. The solution includes all of the digital and physical components that individual students need to complete science investigations for the entire school year from anywhere, boxed and ready to take home. Carolina Kits | 3D® FLEX programs for remote learning are available now and are a full-year lab program for either high school biology or chemistry, intended to complement the classroom teacher's curriculum and instruction. The FLEX product is a box of hands-on supplies that contains everything a student needs to complete take-home science labs and assignments from their teachers; from safety goggles to plastic ware to safe, home-friendly chemicals to perform 16 different science investigations. The program includes access to over 120 digital resources, including instructional videos and digital labs, and is also available in an all-digital FLEX Lite version.
Every student is provided with their own materials that can travel with them, so they can do the same hands-on labs, no matter the circumstances or location. If they are working individually in the school due to social distancing guidelines or at home in their kitchen, they can safely perform hands-on Next Generation Science Standards* (NGSS) investigations.
Teachers are vital to the student's success and FLEX provides teachers with extensive resources to be successful with remote learning. From detailed lesson plans to background materials to student worksheets – everything is also included for the teacher. The teacher controls the digital resources and assigns them as suggested in the lesson plans or as students progress. The program is designed for both synchronous and asynchronous learning.
After a stressful spring semester for educators and students coping with school closures and remote learning, Carolina Biological set out to help school districts and science teachers be more prepared for whatever fall may bring. One of the primary concerns of high school science teachers was that students were missing the hands-on lab investigations and collaborative experiences that are a critical part of the NGSS. The disruption came so quickly that teachers could not prepare properly and frequently relied on whatever they could find online.
After interacting with science teachers and gathering feedback all spring, the development team at Carolina started with the Carolina Kits | 3D® labs that have been developed over the past three years with NGSS consultants and then piloted in classrooms. These lab kits all start with a real-world phenomenon and address all high school NGSS performance expectations in life, physical, and Earth and space science. They also come with robust digital resources for the teacher and students. Carolina had recent experience converting a hands-on lab that uses termites into a hands-on, distance-learning video lab for the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools abroad.
"Carolina Biological experimented with a new type of remote learning hands-on lab to solve a need and the DoDEA teachers loved the lab because it still provided authentic data collection without having to ship termites around the world," said Mark Meszaros, Ph.D., VP of Core Product Management and Innovation at Carolina. "This experience provided the genesis of our new remote learning products." Combining the hands-on investigations of Carolina Kits | 3D® with engaging videos of actual hands-on labs and teacher demonstrations resulted in the development of Carolina Kits | 3D® FLEX.
The FLEX program uses a unique blend of hands-on investigations, teacher-led digital demonstrations and digital student investigations to ensure safety, authentic data collection, and valuable laboratory experiences. All hands-on investigations are safe to do at home and offer authentic lab experiences and skill-building opportunities. These include wet labs plus manipulative activities, offering students different learning modalities that appeal to visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile learners. Digital teacher demonstrations are high-quality videos that allow the teacher to provide commentary in their own words, just as if they were in the classroom with their students. Students directly observe phenomena and are guided through the process of using evidence and prior knowledge to make sense of it. Digital student investigations are additional opportunities for students to collect authentic data, make observations, and conduct sense-making for investigations after watching actual videos of labs that are difficult to conduct remotely. These videos offer multiple trials and experimental variables that require students to remotely collaborate in order to enhance and deepen understanding. All the science and engineering practices are woven into the investigations and social emotional learning activities included in lesson plans.
"When safety was an issue or expensive lab equipment was required, we switched from a traditional hands-on, wet lab to a teacher-led digital demonstration or digital student investigation," explained Meszaros about the product development. "The digital demonstrations and investigations contain multiple high-quality, close-up videos of actual demonstrations or hands-on labs. Some labs contain both a hands-on portion and a digital portion for a true blended-learning experience. In all labs, students must make their own observations and begin the process of sense-making at their own pace."
The Carolina Kits | 3D® FLEX program for high school biology contains 16 investigations in four broad concept areas, including molecules to organisms, ecosystems, heredity, and biological evolution. The high school chemistry program contains 17 investigations in four broad concept areas, such as structure and property of matter, chemical and nuclear reactions, reaction rates and equilibrium, and energy in chemical processes. Both programs have correlations to major textbooks. FLEX is also available in an all-digital format, FLEX Lite, on a per student basis.
According to Aden Dauchess, Campaign Manager at Carolina, "Initial response from district supervisors has been enthusiastic. They have been searching for remote and distance education programs and have found no hands-on products for high school science, while preparing their federal CARES and Title I, II, IV and state funding requests."
The Carolina Kits | 3D® FLEX Biology program contains 120 different digital resources for teachers and students. These digital resources contain more than 200 instructional videos and 20 different simulations. The biology kit for students contains 51 different hands-on components. Everything is included other than tap water and a digital device. Many of the 16 total investigations are blended and use more than one technique as they explore: Homeostasis in Animals; Modeling Kidney Function; Algae Bead Photosynthesis; Food and Nutrient Analysis; Biofuels; Carrying Capacity and Algal Blooms; Building Ecological Pyramids; Group Behavior and Social Insects; Oil Spill Remediation; Succession on Mt. Saint Helens; Wisconsin Fast Plants 72-hr Monohybrid; Chromosome Simulation; Modeling DNA to Protein; Genetic Kinship; Natural Selection; and Modeling Population Genetics and Evolution. The program requires more than 36 hours of student time to complete the lab program.
The Carolina Kits | 3D® FLEX Chemistry program contains 150 different digital resources for teachers and students. These digital resources contain more than 450 instructional videos and 15 different simulations. The chemistry kit for students contains 50 different hands-on components with everything included. Many of the program's 17 total investigations are blended and cover these subjects: Periodic Table Inquiry; Chemical Bonding; Super Water-Absorbent Polymers; Like a Salt to a Flame; Making Sense of Solubility; Patterns in Electrons and Chemical Bonds; Balancing Chemical Equations; Balloon Stoichiometry; Mystery Chemical Reactions; Petri Dish Electrolysis; Chemical Reaction Rockets; Radioactive Decay and Half-Life Simulations; Iodine Clock Reaction; Chemical Equilibrium and Le Chatelier's Principle; Reaction Rates of an Antacid; It's Not the Heat, It's Thermochemistry; and Gas Laws. More than 32 hours of student time is required to complete the lab program.
In addition to the new FLEX remote learning products, Carolina developed resources to help K-12 school districts prepare for the highest quality remote science instruction this fall with a new series of white papers. Three of the best national K-12 science education leaders offer their expertise and ideas to help guide districts during these uncertain times. The papers are offered free to download now on Carolina's Website.
Carolina Kits 3D® FLEX programs for remote are available for fall 2020 for high school biology or chemistry. Each kit includes all the supplies (more than 50 different lab products) for a student to perform 16 hands-on investigations. The program also includes over 120 digital resources, including instructional videos and simulations. Prices start at $125 per student. An all-digital format, FLEX Lite, is available for teachers under a licensing agreement per student and teacher. For information, visit www.Carolina.com/Flex, call 336-586-4363, or e-mail product@carolina.com. A program specialist is available to speak with education professionals about the program and how their district's teachers can provide vigorous, hands-on, standards-based biology and chemistry labs no matter the scheduling model.

R&B diva Ne-Yo is putting all you fake singers on blast!
The singer-songwriter, whose hits include Irreplaceable and Because Of You, told Confidential: "If you're an artist, your job is to learn how to entertain.
"As an artist, you need to learn to sing or dance, or sing and dance at the same time.
"That's your job. You can't be a mechanic, but let somebody else fix the car. Why would they bring it to you?
His comments come as Beyonce was busted miming at US President Barack Obama's inauguration, and Britney Spears lip-syncing entire concerts.
Ne-Yo, real name Shaffer Smith, 33, also took aim at performers using production to cover weaknesses.
Ne-Yo is one heck of a singer and songwriter but do you think he should be telling Bey as well as others to bow down and get their vocals straight?

What is French New Wave? Background and Revolutionary Techniques
By Alyssa Maio on August 1, 2015
The French New Wave changed the ways movies were made forever and influenced some of the greatest directors of our time. But what is the French New Wave? How did it begin and why? This post will provide you with a definition, a brief historical context, and highlight some key characteristics of the movement from the earliest pioneers. As we'll see, the influence of the French New Wave continues through modern filmmakers like Tarantino and Scorsese, just to name a few.
What is French New Wave?
Background and style
For one of the most influential movements in cinematic history, it's not that easy to define! Before we move on to discuss some of the stylistic contributions that the movement had on filmmaking, let's begin with a little background.
FRENCH NEW WAVE DEFINITION
The French New Wave was a film movement from the 1950s and 60s and one of the most influential in cinema history. Also known as "Nouvelle Vague," it gave birth to a new kind of cinema that was highly self-aware and revolutionary to mainstream filmmaking. A group of French critics, who wrote for the journal, Cahiers du Cinema, believed films had lost their ability to capture true human emotion and "lacked sincerity." They felt the films were out of step with how people actually live.
There were quite a few notable French film directors who were part of the movement, including Francois Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard, Claude Chabrol, Eric Rohmer, Jacques Rivette, Louis Malle, Alain Resnais, Agnes Varda, and Jacques Demy. Their films were characterized by rejecting film traditions but how did they do that?
FRENCH NEW WAVE CHARACTERISTICS:
Deemphasized plot & dialogue was often improvised
Jump cuts rather than continuity editing
Handheld cameras
Long takes
Direct sound & available light (live recordings, often didn't adjust light)
French New Wave Cinema
A brief history of French New Wave
The French New Wave emerged out of a hungry post-war France. Salivating for culture and left only with mainstream media that felt trite and contrived, French critics and film lovers began experimenting with different filmmaking techniques. Their influences ranged from the Italian Neo-Realism and American noir from the 40s and 50s.
During WWII, films from outside France stopped being imported into the country. But after the war, those embargoes were lifted and these cinephiles and critics were inundated by a flood of "new" movies. All this work from Hollywood greats like Welles, Hitchcock, and Ford energized the French critics and the rest is history.
French New Wave Characteristics
Revolutionary techniques
For decades, mainstream filmmaking, especially from Hollywood, set the standards and "rules" on how to make a film. The French filmmakers understood those rules...and then threw them out the window. The smaller, lightweight cameras were often "freed" from the tripod and handheld, giving a new life and energy to their films.
Non-linear and fragmented editing became another major and exciting contribution. For decades, each Shot A led logically into Shot B, leaving no gaps in the information to keep the audience from being confused. Now, in these French films, logic became a secondary concern.
How they revolutionized editing
The video from The Discarded Image highlights the radical choices made by French director, Jean-Luc Godard. His film, Breathless, became one of the preeminent films in the movement and began one of the most exciting and artistic careers of any film director.
Jean-Luc Godard: Liberator
French New Wave Influence
Tarantino and Scorsese
The influence of the Nouvelle Vague on filmmaking and filmmakers cannot be understated. Entire generations of filmmakers have been influenced by these films, including Quentin Tarantino and Martin Scorsese. Tarantino even named his production company A Band Apart after Godard's seminal film Bande a parte (Band of Outsiders).
In this video, Scorsese discusses one of Francois Truffaut's best films from the era, Jules et Jim, and how the freedom he saw on screen inspired his own work.
Scorsese discusses Truffaut's influence
In this clip, Tarantino talks about Jean-Luc Godard and how his work gave him inspiration. In particular, he discusses how a review of a Godard film by noted critic Pauline Kael became more important to him than the film itself.

Best French New Wave films
We've covered the general stylistic elements of the French New Wave but let's look at some of the most iconic films and filmmakers of the movement. In this post, we'll give you an essential list of films that made the Nouvelle Vague so exciting. Above all, these directors love cinema, and that's what makes them so appealing for likeminded filmmakers. These iconic directors may have come from a similar background but their approach to their own filmmaking makes this such a dynamic and versatile movement.

Bursitis is an inflammation of the small sacs of fluid (bursae) that cushion and lubricate the areas between tendons and bones. The trochanteric bursa is a large sac separating the greater trochanter of the hip and the muscles and tendons of the thighs and buttock. Bursitis can affect many of the bursae around the hip, but trochanteric bursitis is the most common. Trochanteric bursitis occurs more often in middle-aged or elderly women than in men or younger people.
Ice packs to the affected area.
Medicines to relieve pain and swelling.
Weight loss, to reduce pressure on the hip.
Exercises to strengthen the hip muscles.
Stretching exercises for the hip and lower back.
Avoiding prolonged standing and the activity that causes pain.
Using a cane or crutches to reduce pressure on the hip.
Using a lift in your shoe, to reduce pressure on the hip if one leg is shorter than the other.
If home treatment does not relieve pain from bursitis, medical treatment such as lidocaine or steroid injections into the trochanteric bursa may help.
Warmth and redness in the area may be a sign of infection, which may require evaluation by your doctor. Surgery is rarely needed.


Can autonomous technology might save us from ourselves?
New research released today suggests there is a technology arms race as the majority of drivers struggle to disconnect from mobile devices and this undermines safety advances.
As technology and automotive experts meet in Las Vegas at CES (the Consumer Electronics Show), the most important industry event of the year, it is revealed that drivers are hopeful that advances being made can overcome their own failings – like checking emails and social media while driving.
A third of motorists said that the greater illegal use of mobile phones has reduced road safety, and another 26 per cent think that the safety benefits delivered by automotive technology are cancelled out by people using smart phones illegally behind the wheel.
The new study of 1,000 UK motorists by Continental Tyres is part of its Vision Zero, a long term commitment to reduce road fatalities worldwide. It coincides with the CES where automotive technology is a prominent feature and Continental is exhibiting.
At CES the tyre and technology manufacturer, Continental, will showcase its own technological developments. Being demonstrated will be innovations such as in-vehicle biometrics where facial and fingerprint recognition will be used to enhance security, and 'eHorizon' for motorcycles, that allows motorcyclists to connect with other bikers and see around corners digitally.
The new research also found we are significantly more sceptical when it comes to promises being made. Those surveyed are 88 per cent more likely to now believe that manufacturers will exaggerate claims about what might be achieved with autonomous technology.
We are also 11 per cent more concerned about autonomous vehicles being hacked compared to when the last study happened in 2015. Four in ten motorists find this a worry about driverless cars.
"We believe that motorists need to always think of safety, regardless of what fantastic technological solutions on the market there may be to help. Any safety device, feature or fitting should complement the safe and responsible behaviour of the driver, though the context of consumer behaviour is vital.
The findings come after research unveiled in December for Continental found that two thirds of car users said they would back Government action to block certain functions of drivers' mobile phones when the vehicle is moving.

Anne Heche Wanted THESE Actresses To Play Her In A Biopic
Gayatri Rani
In a recently released episode of Behind the Velvet Rope podcast, Anne Heche reflects on who will be perfect to play her in the movie of her life.
Actress Anne Heche died nine days after she was pulled from a burning car and hospitalized in critical condition following a crash in Los Angeles on Aug. 5. However, the actress knew from the beginning who can better portray her on the big screen. In a posthumously-released podcast interview clip, Heche opened up about the possibility of putting her life on screen and which actresses she'd want to play a younger version of herself.
In a recently released Behind the Velvet Rope podcast, the actress said, "Miley Cyrus or Kristen Bell. I've already thought about it." Heche said that 'the two of them share a personality ability to face the world in a way that I feel like I have, and I would want to be portrayed." The Wag the Dog star called Cyrus "a great actress" and said she was particularly fascinated with her Hannah Montana portrayal while noting that she also began working at a young age doing dinner theatre in New Jersey.
Heche then gushed about how much she love Cyrus saying, "I've seen her Hannah Montana. To be able to do that, to be able to express that, to be able to be as bold as she's been going from Disney into, you know, 'Wrecking Ball.'" Heche added, "the way she moves, the way she sings, her voice, her compassion she loves everyone. Her ability to get out on stage and sing a cappella! That would be the way that I would see a pure artist engaging with the world."
As for Kristen Bell, she and Heche previously shared the screen in the 2004 Lifetime movie, Gracie's Choice. While gushing about the collaboration, in which the pair played mother and daughter, Heche said, "Kristen Bell gave me my second Emmy nomination." The Emmy winner actress explained, "Kristen, again, felt like a reflection to me… Her ability to tell a story, do it through joy, and do it with her personality, charm, gorgeous timing, and humour…"
Anne then revealed, "I see myself a lot in her. I don't think it's any mistake that I played her mom, and now I want her to play me." Further in the podcast, Heche talked extensively about writing a follow-up to her 2001 memoir, Call Me Crazy, with a new book, Call Me Sane, which would chronicle her journey of moving beyond trauma and abuse while helping others to do the same.

Any help you can provide will be helpful.

A: Here is a solution using a table. I also took the opportunity to optimize your code. You should not be using block elements, eg divs inside anchor tags.

The 2016 Pinups for Pitbulls Model call is OPEN! #pfpbmodelcall16 #BtC4A - Oh My Dog!
The endlessly creative ways of fundraising and getting recognition for a cause never ceases to amaze me. The animal charity I volunteer for once held a benefit hula dance troupe performance! Pinups for Pitbulls is just so fun and I thank you for sharing it for Blog The Change.
I totally agree, Bethany! I LOVE unique fundraising ideas – that hula dance sounds so fun. It certainly helps spice things up and raise even more awareness!
I got my first PFP calendar the year Clara Yori and Hector were in it and have been a fan ever since. Ah, if I weren't so old, I would love to do this. What a great organization.
I love to see organizations coming up with unique ways to raise money, and making it fun as well!
Exactly! I really love fundraising that emphasizes the POSITIVE rather than the negative aspects of animal welfare!
Maggie, I love this whole project and love it even more that you and Emmett are in it. How exciting to see you possibly reconnect with these folks in Indy! Kudos to your involvement and the work this great organizations does. And thanks for sharing the opportunity for others to get involved!
We love these guys too!
That's awesome that you got to be a part of the calendar!

4. What was the very first episode of The Flintstones?
That depends on how you define "first." The first in order of production was "The Swimming Pool" (P-1), which was recorded on April 1, 1960; but the first to actually air on television was "The Flintstone Flyer" (P-2), which was recorded on the following day. As for which ordering of the episodes is "correct," that's largely a matter of personal taste. In syndication, the episodes usually run in original airing sequence. This is also true of the full-season DVD sets.
Some would argue that the true "first" episode was never aired along with the original series; see question 5 and 6.

Ebola cases climb to 1,168 as more health workers infected
The surge in new Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) continued at a brisk pace today, with 14 new cases reported from a broad range of larger and smaller hot spots, the health ministry said in its daily statement.
Also, the World Health Organization (WHO) said in one of its regular updates that it's concerned about rising activity in the wide area responders are covering and about continuing infections in health workers.
New case details
Of the 14 new cases, 7 are in Katwa—the main hot spot—and 3 are in Vuhovi. Four locations each have a single case: Butembo, Mandima, Masereka, and Beni. The new infections boost the overall outbreak total to 1,168 cases, which includes 1,102 confirmed and 66 probable cases. Health officials are still investigating 274 suspected cases.
Also, 10 more people died from their infections, 7 of them in community settings in Katwa, Vuhovi, Masereka, and Mandima. The developments lift the outbreak's overall fatality count to 741.
One of the community deaths involves a health worker in Vuhovi, which the ministry said raises the number of infected health workers to 86, which includes 31 deaths.

Congo: The Legacy—And Now Present Threat—of the Volcano
Chloe Christman and John Bagwell November 16, 2011 No comments
Posted by Chloe Christman and John Bagwell on November 16, 2011
Eastern Congo's Nyamuragira volcano has been erupting at an epic scale near the city of Goma over the past few days. Having returned from Goma less than two weeks ago to capture stories not traditionally heard about life surrounded by conflict in eastern Congo, we're left thinking about the impact these volcanoes have on daily life in the region.
As if conflict in this part of the country isn't enough, Goma is situated in one of the most geologically tumultuous locations on earth, surrounded by several highly active volcanoes rising over the horizon. It's unlikely that lava will reach the city at this time, but the plume of smoke hovering above and the bursts of red lava against the night sky serve as a powerful reminder of the still fresh memories of the 2002 eruption from the Nyiragongo volcano that looms over Goma.
As we interviewed people about the moments that shaped who they are today, they independently brought up what happened to them the day of the dramatic eruption a decade ago. Fidel, Enough's field researcher, told us of how he ensured his family's safety by taking them across the border to Rwanda, out of the path of destruction, only to drive back alone towards the flowing lava. Always driven by curiosity, he couldn't bear to not witness the event for himself.
Denise, a lawyer for victims of sexual violence, told us that she heard rumors that the volcano was erupting, but her principal source of news, government-run radio programs, were telling people not to worry. Finally, right before the lava starting streaming into the city, she and her neighbors decided to flee. With very little warning or time to take many—or in some cases any—possessions with them, they too crossed into Rwanda. As a student just starting her first semester of law school, Denise grabbed the most important item she owned at the time without even thinking: her law book.
The lava from the 2002 eruption eventually covered 70 percent of the city, destroying everything in its path. As we drove down a particularly bumpy and lava-rock-filled street, we wondered about the logistical challenges of rebuilding after such an event and asked Fidel how the roads were cleared after the lava cooled.
"People came out of their homes with chisels and hammered away until they were barely passable. It still looks this way because nothing has been done since," he said. Just then we passed what had been a huge cathedral in the city, now just a single stone wall left behind from the volcano's path.
Despite all the negatives associated with the disaster, life of course went on after the eruption. People returned to the city a few days after the lava passed and instantly started to rebuild. Almost all the walls in the city are now made from precariously stacked lava rock, which look as if they could topple over at any moment. People have built entire neighborhoods on top of lava beds. And "fields" of bean plants are seen everywhere growing between rocks, surprisingly healthy in such a harsh landscape due to the fertile soil beneath.
While most reporting from eastern Congo focuses on the man-made disasters, these conversations added another dimension to our understanding of the daily challenges of life in the region, as well as a powerful illustration of perseverance. The eruption was a moment that changed everyone's life in and around Goma. The event remains a marker in time, with stories and experiences framed as happening either before or after that moment. And its aftermath is still impacting daily lives today, in the way it shapes the natural landscape and in the way the threat of another eruption at any time affects the way people live, work, and interact.
We were surprised this theme would emerge as such a strong part of the stories we were collecting. As we were checking out of our hotel in Goma, we noticed yet another reminder of the significance that hung in the lobby: a large painting depicting people fleeing their homes away from red lava flowing down from Nyiragongo. We're keeping our eye on the current activity of Nyamuragira, thankful that it's still looking as though it will spare the streets of Goma, but aware of the memories it must conjure.

Wayne congratulates other WRs on new contracts
Reggie Wayne thinks it's great Andre Johnson and Miles Austin are getting paid big bucks.
He just wants to be included in the club.
On Friday, two days before the defending AFC champs open the season in Houston against Johnson and the Texans, Wayne used a lighthearted approach to make a more serious point about his own situation.
''This offseason we were talking about contracts,'' Wayne said. ''Once he got his done, I texted him 'congratulations,' and the first thing he asked me was, 'So what's up with yours? What are you going to do?' I texted him 'absolutely nothing.' At least somebody's getting paid. I'd also like to send congratulations out to Miles Austin. He got paid.''
In August, Johnson signed a two-year extension that could pay him up to $38.5 million. Austin signed a six-year deal reportedly worth $54 million to stay in Dallas on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Wayne, who is second on the Colts' career list for receptions and yards receiving and third in TD catches, is playing out the final two years of a six-year, $39 million deal he signed four years ago.
So Wayne wants to redo his contract.
''It's either we'll get something done or we're not. We haven't had any talks. I can read in between the lines, I know what's going on,'' he said. ''But I'm not going to let that affect my production. Like they say, it's a business, right? So I'm going to treat it like a business. I'm going to do what I'm supposed to do. And that's go out there and make plays.''
Wayne skipped all of Indy's team workouts this spring, including a mandatory three-day mini-camp in June, in hopes of getting a new contract.
It didn't work, and when training camp opened, Wayne showed up on time.
''I thought about it (holding out), but it's bigger than me,'' Wayne said on Aug. 2. ''I had already let my teammates down once.''
Colts President Bill Polian has said that it's unlikely anything can be completed now because of the uncertain labor situation. NFL owners and the league's players association are trying to negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement before next season.
And the Colts' top contract priority is Peyton Manning. His $98 million deal expires after this season, and team owner Jim Irsay has said he will make Manning the league's highest-paid player. That value was established Thursday night when Patriots quarterback Tom Brady signed a four-year, $76 million contract.
But Wayne won't be far behind Manning in the pecking order after posting his second 100-catch season in 2009 and a sixth straight 1,000-yard season. He's been to the Pro Bowl each of the last four years and the Super Bowl twice in that stretch.
What Colts fans will remember, though, is the ball he didn't get in the Super Bowl - the one Tracy Porter ran back 74 yards for the game-sealing touchdown.
Wayne acknowledged he was upset for a couple of weeks, but a little time on the beach helped him get over it.
''That's football, man, that's the way it goes,'' he said. ''I can't say it didn't bother me. But I like the direction we're headed.''
And he's ready for some football.
''I feel great, man,'' he said. ''I'm not going to say I feel like I'm 20. Maybe 21 would be more accurate. But we've got some guys around here to keep me feeling young. I feel great, and I'm ready to play. I'm 100 percent healthy, and I'm looking for a good game and a good season.''


The stereotype about Stevenson University students fall into three categories; jocks, rich kids, or art kids. Stevenson University has a robust sports program with an insanely good D3 Lacrosse team. Stevenson University also has a Film and Theatre program, which is a major attraction to kids who ride fixed-gear bicycles and wear scarves. Lastly, the tuition for Stevenson University is rather pricey, so many get the impression that if you go to Stevenson you come from a family of means. If Montgomery County, Annapolis and the 83 Corridor mean anything to you, then you know what I'm talking about. However, many students at Stevenson University are very relaxed and laid back and there aren't many "cliques" at the school. It's college after all. Hang out with who you want!


POLICE are appealing for information after a 19-year-old man suffered a broken jaw and head injury after an attack in Alsager.
The attack happened at around 1.10am on Saturday as the victim left the Mere Pub on Crewe Road and was walking towards the town centre with two friends.
They were attacked by a group of three men walking in the opposite direction outside Sainsbury's.
The victim was taken to hospital with a broken jaw and severe wound to the back of his head. He has since been discharged.
Police say all of the offenders were white and aged around 20. One of them was 6ft tall, of stocky build, with short/shaven dark hair.
The second offender was around 5ft 10in tall of stocky build. He had short shaven hair with a distinctive mark on his neck and was wearing a t-shirt and jeans. The third man is around 5ft 9in tall with short fair hair.


Postcards from the Bleeding Edge: One path to ground!!
Do NOT put any lights (florescent or incandescent) on the circuit.
This will save many many headaches later on.
This will help keep from having ground loops. Some higher end audio gear will actually do this for you by letting you select whether or not to isolate the ground.
P.S. cybernation brought a tear to me eye!
Hiya Chuck! How'd you get here?
How'd I get here? You are a link from Sean Conner's blog; boston.conman.org (He and I are at it again with our latest YAIP (yet another internet project).
You might remember him from matrix galleria/icanect days.
He referenced your blog in a post on his blog & I of course had to go read.
I would love to collaberate or participate virtually on some future recordings!
Let's chat sometime via email or icq. How do I get my email to you without posting it here?
Wow, I really like this one. I have a website that talks mostly about business business from home home internet make money online opportunity successforfreedom.com work You should check it out sometime.

EDITORIAL: Local firms face a daunting year
About one-and-half months ago, concerns about a severe disruption to supply chains stemming from the massive earthquake and tsunami in Japan triggered a sell-off in some technology stocks. Now that Japanese electronics suppliers are gradually resuming operations and power shortages in that nation are easing, fears of supply constraints for local firms look to be subsiding. As a result, renewed concerns are emerging about the erosion of corporate profits because of the strength of the New Taiwan dollar against its US counterpart.
A strong NT dollar will most likely remain a challenge for exporters, primarily technology companies, for the rest of the year as its uptrend seems inevitable now that the US Federal Reserve has decided to keep its key interest rates at record lows — near zero — for an unspecified period. This move by the Fed is meant to support the US economic recovery, but it will also most likely result in a weaker US dollar.
A strong NT dollar would not only continue to reduce revenues for exporters, but it would also erode their profits as appreciation would offset increases in gross margin by several percentage points — an amount which normally takes a long time for companies to build by adding increased value to existing products or cost cutting.
In the past, the foreign exchange rate only eroded Nanya Technology Corp's revenues by 1 percent, but things have changed. As the NT dollar appreciated at an unprecedented pace, the company saw its revenues cut by 6 percent in the final quarter of last year after converting its revenues from US dollars into NT dollars.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC), the nation's largest company by market value, expects supply chain disruptions to reduce demand for its chips for just one quarter. In contrast, the impact of the NT dollar's appreciation is expected to be much greater.
If the NT dollar remained unchanged at last year's NT$31.49 against the greenback, TSMC would make NT$26 billion more in net profits, or NT$1 a share, this year, TSMC chairman Morris Chang (張忠謀) told investors last week. However, in the first quarter alone, the NT dollar has appreciated 8 percent year-on-year against the US dollar, making the currency one of the fastest-rising ones in Asia versus its US counterpart.
Some technology companies, including TV chipmakers, are playing it safe by now providing financial forecasts in terms of US dollars instead of NT dollars, a move that will help circumvent the risk of missing financial targets. It is understandable why companies would give their forecasts in US dollars. There is very little any Taiwanese manufacturers can do to hedge against uncertain exchange rates because the movement of any global currency is intertwined with the trends of the global economy and capital flows.
Local companies are left pinning their hopes on the central bank. Central bank Governor Perng Fai-nan (彭淮南) knows this better than anyone. Perng has repeatedly said that the bank wants to keep the NT dollar stable. While Perng has a strong reputation for getting the job done, it is uncertain how much the bank can do amid the ever-growing flow of capital into Taiwan and other Asia nations.
Besides, the central bank has to keep inflation risk in check. The nation's inflation rate is expected to reach 2.18 percent annually this year from the government's previous estimate of 2 percent, which is likely pushing the central bank to boost its benchmark interest rates, thereby driving up the local currency.

Increase in applicants to Scottish universities mirror the trend for excellence
Posted on July 9th 2013 News
Figures published today by the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS) show strong increases in the number of students that have applied to study in Scotland's universities by the end of June deadline.
There has been an increase in the number of Scottish domiciled applicants to Scottish universities, as well as strong growth in the number of applicants across the UK wanting to study in Scotland. Overall, there was a 6.1 per cent increase in applicants of all domiciles to universities in Scotland.
Today's UCAS figures show that:
The number of Scottish domiciled applicants to Scottish universities is up 1.2% from 41,719 in 2012 to 42,201 in 2013
The number of English domiciled applicants to Scottish universities has increased significantly by 14% in 2013 compared to the same time last year
The number of international (non EU) applicants is up by 6.1% in 2013 compared to 2012.
The figures strongly suggest that Scotland remains a highly sought after destination for higher education and that Scotland has quickly recovered from the instability in student demand caused by the introduction of fees of up to £9,000 in England and for students from the rest of the UK that choose to study in Scotland.
Commenting on these figures, David Lott, Deputy Director, Universities Scotland said:
"Scotland's universities have a lot to offer students with the highest levels of student satisfaction and best rates in the UK for graduates getting jobs or progressing to further study. It's good to see this reflected in increased applications to Scottish institutions this year from Scots, from students across the rest of the UK and from Europe and beyond.
"It is very encouraging to see Scottish universities bounce back from last year's dip in application rates from students across the rest of the UK, following the introduction of fees. The fact that Scottish universities are seeing applications from fee-paying students from the UK and further afield increase demonstrates the quality of the educational experience on offer in Scotland."

Overload records label boss BRLEE on his rework "I got inspiration for this track, whist travelling from back from a party whilst my friend driving. I was really tired, so when I heard this song playing on the radio – it woke me up right away. The energy from the song took over me and got me thinking of remixing it right away. It made us spend our last mobile data, using Shazam to get the name of original song "Giana Factory, Rainbow girl".
Brlee also gave an interview for change underground (C-U) where he talked about his background, inspiration, Overload records and the magical island Ibiza.
