5 Years, 5,000 Kids Can Now Swim!
Swimming is a life-skill, and when more than 70% of the earth's surface is covered by water, everyone should learn how to swim and be safe in the water. This is particularly true in communities surrounded by water. Michigan has more fresh-water coastline than any other state in the Union, and in diverse communities like Detroit, the statistics can be grim. According to the CDC, African-American children drown at a rate nearly three times higher than their Caucasian peers.
Detroit Swims is an organization in Detroit, part of the Boll Family YMCA, that is taking the first steps in preventing childhood drowning by teaching children across the city how to swim for free!
It's more than just teaching a swim lesson, Detroit Swims teaches life lessons and gives children an opportunity to gain confidence that can be applied to all aspects of their lives. The program provides lessons, a suit, cap, and goggles for free. Since the program's inception, more than 5,000 children have learned how to swim. The program takes children from a fear of water, to early water safety in a matter of weeks.
Rowdy Gaines recently visited Detroit to run a swim clinic, where the proceeds benefited Detroit Swims. The program has also expanded to Belle Isle in a partnership between the YMCA, GM Foundation, Belle Isle Conservancy, Department of Natural Resources, Born and Raised Detroit Foundation, and the U.S. Coast Guard.
Participation in formal swimming lessons can reduce the risk of drowning by 88%. There are still 100,000 children who need to learn how to swim in just the city of Detroit. You can learn more and support Detroit Swims at the link below.
Stop Drowning and Start Swimming.
It's astounding that this many people don't know how to swim! It's not only a life skill, it's really fun and good for you.
Drowning is a tragedy and why we've partnered with the Lifesaving Society to help in prevention and training by becoming their official swim towel.

Whimsical Outdoor Lighting – Outdoor spotlights are usually bright enough to get the job done (stopping you or your guests from falling and breaking your neck in the dark) but practical does not have to equal boring. Try adding outdoor lanterns with candle bulbs along a back yard walkway or adding outdoor grade fairy lights along the sides.
A Wow Em Entrance – Most new homes comes with a good serviceable front door. But the serviceable part is often the problem. While the door my be strong and sturdy and boast the right number of locks often they are also bland drab and boring. If your budget will not stretch to a more attractive replacement right now even the relatively easy task of painting the front door you have a better colour and then adding a few accent pieces either side of it – potted plants, flower boxes, even garden gnomes if you like that kind of thing – will almost instantly help your home get noticed by the neighbours and create a more welcoming entrance for your guests.
Dress Up the Deck – If your deck is less than visually interesting (ie plain) consider doing a little bit more to enliven it than just sticking a table and chair set back there. Colorful plants, a nicely painted trellis to serve as an outdoor wall, even an outdoor rug that will add comfort and aesthetic appeal are all inexpensive ways to create a deck that you will be proud to entertain on.

Adeosun, Foreign Investor Hold Talks on Textile Industry
Business | 5 years ago
Obinna Chima
Dutch textile and design company, Vlisco Group on Tuesday held a high-level discussion with the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, over the former's proposed investment in the Nigerian cotton textile industry.
The Chief Executive Officer of Vlisco Group, Mr. David Suddens, who led the group's delegation to the meeting with the minister, said the investment would boost growth and jobs in Nigeria across the entire value-chain from cotton to fashion.
The Group plan to invest across the sector's value chain from sourcing of cotton, textile printing, wholesale, retail and e-commerce distribution, garment manufacturing and supporting and training of Nigerian fashion designers.
Suddens said: "Vlisco foresees an end-to-end involvement in the Nigerian textile industry from cotton sourcing to retail. We are expecting this investment to yield benefits for the Nigerian economy in terms of economic diversification and job creation in line with the country's Industrial Revolution strategy.
"Vlisco Group's activities are expected to generate more than 10,000 jobs in Nigeria in the medium term. We also envisage a Vlisco printing factory in Nigeria using Nigerian designs for the Nigerian consumer, retail outlets selling Vlisco products and trained tailors sewing Vlisco fabric into garmet."
Suddens further noted that the group had formed partnership with two spinning and weaving companies based in China and Pakistan in order to help build the Nigerian cotton textile industry.
"The two partners are very serious industrialists with first-class operations in their own countries. Both are prepared to move quickly if Vlisco guarantees the purchase of their output, and if agreement can be reached on the details of the Nigerian operation," a statement further quoted him to have said.
The two partners, according to him, would be expected to start operations with a weaving mill of between 120 and 140 looms, with each mill producing approximately 12 to 15 million metres of cotton fabric annually.
"Once success is established, both partners will integrate backwards into spinning. The first spinning mills will be for 25,000 spindles, producing yarn for approximately 20 million metres of fabric.
"These mills will then be doubled in size to 50,000 spindles and the weaving mills will also be doubled to 240-280 looms for each factory," the foreign investor explained.
Adeosun, who expressed delight at Vlisco's proposed investment in the cotton textile industry, said the federal hovernment was committed to the revitalisation of the industry.
She disclosed that the government would stimulate and support sustainable value addition along the entire cotton, textile and garment sub-sector in order to create jobs and wealth for Nigerians and enable technology transfer.
She urged the investor to take advantage of the Nigerian Government's incentives for the cotton, textile and garment sub-sector to expand its brand portfolio in Nigeria.
The Vlisco Group designs, produces and distributes fashion fabrics for the West and Central African market and African consumers in global metropolitan cities.
Founded in Helmond, the Netherlands, in 1846, the Vlisco Group and their fabrics have grown into an essential part of African culture, receiving widespread attention from the art, design and fashion worlds.

I recently traveled to Denver to visit with the Rocky Mountain Masonry Institute.
I find myself having returned not too long ago from a trip to Denver to visit with the fine folks of the Rocky Mountain Masonry Institute (RMMI). As I sat with these folks and had dinner and then listened to their speaker for the evening, the one thing I realize the more I visit folks all around the country is that we are all going through the same thing and all have similar interests.
We discussed economic conditions (not a great dinner discussion as this topic can make your stomach turn), but as with other places I have visited the conditions are still very tentative. There is some more work than there was before, but the work that is there is still very competitive and margins have not returned. There is a lot of concern about our future workforce and what we as an industry will do when the economy improves and gets back to a normal cycle. This recession has damaged our industry's workforce and we have lost a pretty large amount of our future craftsmen to other industries. The chances of those folks returning once the work is back is pretty remote.
The main purpose of my trip was to tell them a bit about the MCAA and what we are doing to help build a better future for our industry. We are looking to tie back and have a direct affiliation with the RMMI so we can work together on tackling this (workforce) and so many other issues that are critical to our path to recovery as an industry and as a nation. As an industry we need strong and healthy local, state and national associations. The only way we can deal with these many issues is to all work together to tackle them. As a national association we are working on developing a national apprenticeship program utilizing the NCCER masonry apprenticeship program. This program would standardize training around the country and allow contractors the ability to look up the training that folks who participate in the program have.
The MCAA can't administer this program without effective and willing state groups. The state groups have to administer the programs within their states and work with their state Department of Labors to help create a successful program. The state that has done this most effectively has been Florida and they are assisting us in developing a broader national implementation of this program. This is just one of many issues our industry needs a strong national, state and local group presence. As an industry we have to make a commitment to have all these groups work together to help us achieve the many goals we want to achieve. Our legislative and technical challenges are also very dependent upon having these groups work together to make the biggest impact we can.
I would encourage you today to continue to support all three of these groups. If you are a part of a local, state or national group, make sure you renew your support with them. These are trying times for them as well. If we let them fall, we will be in a world of hurt when times rebound. If you are not a part of any of these or just one or two, I would encourage you to join the others today. Being active with these groups also helps not only the group, but also you and your company. It is amazing the time and dollars we commit to this effort, but what is more amazing are the experiences and knowledge I gain from volunteering. My company has been better off a result. Lastly, I want to take a moment to wish you an yours a wonderful holiday as we all enjoy our season of thanks.

FAQ :: Geograph Channel Islands - photograph every grid square!
I would be interested in reusing Geograph content, is that possible?
Theres a page I once saw on geograph, and I can't find it again!
Do you RSS feeds available?

If you're the first to submit a proper "geograph" for the grid square you'll get a geograph point added to your profile and the warm glow that comes with it.
Follow this link for a more in depth discussion on the finer points of moderation.
Certainly - the points system is there to encourage people to make that extra effort to capture squares we don't have photos for yet - but we welcome additional geograph or supplemental images, perhaps showing a different subject, or a different time of year. Everyone sees things differently - feel free to give us your take on any square. Some squares have been done in considerable detail - helping to more fully document and add depth to a square.
You can upload images of any size, portrait or landscape, but we do resize them so their longest dimension is 640 pixels. We do not keep your original print quality image, only our resized screen-quality version.
Ideally images shouldn't have the longest dimension less than 480 pixels, while we might accept such images if they hold particular interest, we would really prefer a larger image.
We do preserve the EXIF headers from your original image, so it is advantageous to upload your original camera image if you want this information to be kept.

Activity City Visit: Discovering Temple Bar District, Dublin, Ireland
On arrival day, we headed out for a walk around Dublin. We started walking from The Aloft Dublin City hotel and headed back into town.
Getting closer into town, we headed past the impressive Christchurch Cathedral down towards Temple Bar area.
Before long, we were getting into the Temple Bar District towards the more central part of town.
Exploring the Temple Bar Neighbourhood:
We walked to the Temple Bar neighbourhood. WT73Jr, having viewed on You Tube that the Temple Bar was a tourist trap area, had pro-actively banned us from going to the place. It actually looked like a lot of fun, despite his limiting parameters. All in all, Temple Bar appeared to be quite a lively place, even in the afternoon.
Most interestingly were all the Irish Pubs that were all throughout the neighbourhood. All of them were cheerfully decorated with flowers and a nice sense of camaraderie in the neighbourhood.
Shopping the Grafton Neighbourhood:
We followed the Temple Bar area with a walk down to the Grafton Neighbourhood. I found it to be much more pleasant and it appeared there were more locals and British tourists in this zone, instead of the constant debauchery of the temple area.
A Half Pound Burger at the Hard Rock Café Dublin:
We started getting hungry at this point, so we headed to every teenagers favourite international chain; the Hard Rock Café Dublin. We had a quick run through the souvenir shop for things to take home.
After researching sights to see in Dublin "old school style" through dad's paperback edition of the Lonely Planet Ireland, WT73Jr set his eyes on a giant half pound burger with a fried egg. He actually finished most of it and I helped him out with his fries.
Strolling the River Liffey:
After the massive feed, we had a walk down past the River Liffey. Since it was summertime, at latitude 50, even at 8:30 PM it's still quite light out.
We eventually headed back towards The Aloft Dublin City hotel, having made the most of our part travel day and first day in Ireland!
My Thoughts on Our First Day in Dublin:
Our first day in Dublin was spent exploring the Temple Bar District and wandering the Grafton neighbourhood. Although we ended up dining at the Hard Rock Café Dublin, we were able to walk it off with a walk on the River Liffey. It was still a pretty good introduction to our time in Ireland.
If you have visited Dublin, is Temple Bar the focus of your visit, or do you go further afield ?

Nietzsche begins the essay on a misanthropic note. He rails against the arrogance of humanity in thinking so highly of our own intelligence and place in the vast space and time of the cosmos. He further insists that human intellect is originally used for "dissimulation" (p. 20), i.e. lying (of course his notion of "lie" is pretty liberal, as I hope will become clearer in the section below). He paints this within a Hobbesian view of a competitive, individualistic state-of-nature humanity. Truth comes second, as a social pact to use the same language in reference to an alleged access to the same bare reality.
All language is metaphor. Between subject and object is an "aesthetic comportment." When we use language to comprehend and communicate about reality, it is an essentially creative, artistic process. As Kant described, we never have naked access to the thing-in-itself. Instead, we only have our representations, composed of linguistic metaphor. To the extent that we claim access to "truth," we are in error if not outright lying. Either way, we are wrong. It is impossible to perceive correctly. The sense that we have of "knowing" reality in an immediate sense, is an illusion. All language, all representation, hence all experience and cognition, is metaphor. Metaphor which sticks around long enough, is adopted and repeated by enough people, is forgotten to be metaphor, and thus is felt to be truth. With repetition comes the impression of realness. Truth is aged metaphor, forgotten to be metaphor.
To use a concept is to treat different things as if they were the same. Concepts are created by lumping together a collection of objects under some aspect or aspects that they have in common, while ignoring their differences. Then there is a kind of ideal version of this sameness which is extracted, and used to measure belonging of objects under the concept. Ironically, no object is ever a perfect replication of the extracted ideal. Of course we ignore that too.
For Nietzsche, concepts are far from being transcendental truths. Instead, they are "lingering residues of metaphors" (p. 32). There are no concepts in nature. Concepts come from us. We commonly maintain the arrogant delusion that nature really is patterned according to human concepts, as if our meager interpretations could encapsulate the workings of total reality.
With science, we attempt to fit everything into an ordered tower of concepts. Striving for rationality, we maintain a defensive orientation, stuck at the level of need. When we remain connected to metaphor – as in myth and art – we can live life with beauty and creativity. This 'intuitive' mode of living also brings with it greater suffering that the 'rational' mode. And it is worth it.

Zone Offroad expands into the Jeep Wrangler JL market with the first of several new lift kit options to hit the shelves ready to ship. These 2" lift kits are a step up from the competition offering better on-road and off-road performance at a great price point for the best value on the market. These systems retain the factory coil springs and add JL-specific polyurethane coil spacers to provide 2" of lift all the way around to allow clearance of up to 35" tires on both 2Door and 4Door models in all trim levels from Sport to Rubicon. These polyurethane spacers offer better road noise/vibration (NVH) isolation than fabricated steel coil spacers for a better in-vehicle experience. Ride quality is enhanced with a set of specially tuned Nitro-series gas shocks at each corner to offer split second response to changes in the terrain with 10-stage velocity sensitive valving. These high pressure nitrogen gas charged shocks offer a huge improvement over the factory shocks or kits with shock extensions. In additional to spacers and shocks, these 2" kits include front and rear bump stop extensions to properly limit up travel of the suspension. Rounding out these kits are extended length heavy duty front sway bar links to correct the sway bar operating angle along with all the necessary hardware to complete the install.
As with all Zone Offroad products these are backed by Factory Protection Plus offering safety and security with a limited lifetime warranty and ESC system compatibility along with 5-year, 100,000-mile extended drivetrain warranty. Go with confidence as you lift your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL with Zone Offroad.

Must See TV (în en., [Program] TV care Trebuie Văzut, citit [mast si ti vi]) este un slogan publicitar folosit de rețeaua de televiziune NBC pentru a-și marca sitcomurile din timpul anilor 1990, cel mai frecvent fiind folosite pentru ziua de joi. Cu emisiuni ca Cheers, Seinfeld, ER, Will & Grace, Mad About You, Frasier și Friends, NBC a dominat audiențele din serile de joi în prime time. Sloganul a fost prezentat pentru prima oară publicului larg de NBC în august 1993 și a inclus și ziua săptămânii: "Must See TV Thursday". În vara anului 1993, NBC a vrut ca telespectatorii să se uite la canalul lor cu o oră înainte de a începe popularul serial Seinfeld și a creat sloganul "Must See TV" pentru a marca blocul de comedie. Primul promo "Must See TV" a fost difuzat la sfârșitul verii și a promovat Mad About You, Wings și Seinfeld – Frasier încă nu fusese lansat. Se termina cu "Get home early for Must See TV Thursday", adică "Vino acasă devreme pentru Joia TV-ului (programelor TV) care Trebuie Văzut". Sloganul "Must See TV" a continuat în fiecare promo din 1993 pentru a promova blocul de comedie de la  8 – 10 p.m.. Când Frasier și Mad About You au fost mutate joi seara, NBC a lansat al doilea sezon de "Must See TV".

California Appeals Court Strikes Down Vergara Ruling
Thursday, April 14, 2016 | Sacramento, CA
Editor B / Flickr
A California appeals court has reversed a lower court ruling that struck down the state's teacher tenure and dismissal laws as unconstitutional. It's a big win for teachers unions and a setback for supporters of overhauling public education.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court's "Vergara" ruling two years ago sent shockwaves through the state's education system. The judge ruled that California's teacher laws disproportionately – and unconstitutionally – harm low-income and minority students.
The California Teachers Association appealed, and the three-justice appeals court panel agreed that the lower court was wrong.
This ruling says that although plaintiffs demonstrated "likely drawbacks" to the teacher tenure, dismissal and layoff laws, they did not demonstrate a "constitutional violation" because they did not show that the laws themselves, as opposed to local school administrators, "inevitably cause this impact."
"Plaintiffs elected not to target local administrative decisions and instead opted to challenge the statutes themselves," wrote 2nd District Court of Appeal Presiding Justice Roger Boren, an appointee of Republican Govs. George Deukmejian and Pete Wilson. "This was a heavy burden and one plaintiffs did not carry. The trial court's judgment declaring the statutes unconstitutional, therefore, cannot be affirmed."
The CTA praised the ruling.
"Today's ruling reversing [Superior Court Judge Rolf] Treu's decision overwhelmingly underscores that the laws under attack have been good for public education and for kids, and that the plaintiffs failed to establish any violation of a student's constitutional rights," union president Eric Heins said in a statement. "Stripping teachers of their ability to stand up for their students and robbing school districts of the tools they need to make sound employment decisions was a wrong-headed scheme developed by people with no education expertise and the appellate court justices saw that."
The legal group representing the nine student plaintiffs says it will appeal the ruling to the California Supreme Court.
"The Court of Appeal's decision mistakenly blames local school districts for the egregious constitutional violations students are suffering each and every day," lead plaintiffs' counsel Theodore Boutrous, Jr. said in a statement, "but the mountain of evidence we put on at trial proved — beyond any reasonable dispute — that the irrational, arbitrary, and abominable laws at issue in this case shackle school districts and impose severe and irreparable harm on students."

4.2 How it will work?
Project is strongly based on belief to improve user interactivity with Wikidata and create a whole new world of data sharing and saving by creating a tool that on highlighting a statement would provide a GUI to fix its structure and then feed it to Wikidata. Wikidata is a free information base that is same for humans and machines. It centralizes access to and structurally manage data so that every piece of data is easily available and accessible. By the means of the plugin people can save their important notes and quotes directly on Wikidata hence making them more accessible to the mass.
Statements or annotations link the web data together and bind them as one entity. Items, properties and values which are worthless without their interconnections are brought to life through these statements. The tools aims at helping people create annotations as a result gluing the dataweb together, and as a result, enriching it with tremendous amount of knowledge. So the need of the project is justified in a way, that there is need to continuously link together the things and thus make this network of data more and more valuable with more and more people annotating.
You are at home, reading a book on Wikisource. Suppose you want to take notes of important things, you can annotate and directly feed and share important quotes and data automatically with their source to the knowledge base of Wikidata. Furthermore, the viewers of the book after you will be able to see your notes and thus saving the time. This can be done just by activating the plugin.
Imagine a work office scenario. You are attending a presentation or seminar. An important fact or data point is shared during the presentation, e.g. your national statistical institute has just released the latest population data on their website. You can annotate it, click and it is on Wikidata.
You are reading the news on your tablet using your browser, a new prime minister is being nominated. You can select the relevant text and insert this information in Wikidata.
Given a statement from Wikidata (or another source), we can use this tool to mark up a reference and import that reference to Wikidata. This could help with providing references for the millions of statements (claims) that currently don't have one. So more people annotating through this tool will add more and more references to the Wikidata. So this way many claims can be converted to proper statements.
It is a page in Wikidata main namespace representing a real-life topic, concept, or subject. Items are identified by a prefixed id, or by a sitelink to an external page, or by a unique combination of multilingual label and description.
It is a descriptor of a value for a particular item. In other words, it is an attribute for an item.
is a piece of data about an item, recorded on the item's page. A statement consists of a claim (a property-value pair such as "Season: Winter" about an item, together with optional qualifiers), supported by optional references (giving the source for the claim).
It is simply a statement without references.
Simply an information about item that explains something about one of its property.
It is a part of the claim that says something about the specific claim, often in a descriptive way.
The side picture explains the above glossary terms, by using an item named London.
Now lets come to Pundit, the way Pundit creates annotations is person selects a sentence and this opens up a triple composer which has the sentence as the subject of the annotations, predicate can be selected from a preloaded list, while the objects are fetch from various servers like DBpedia etc. This procedure creates a triple, further triple can be composed to add more info about the statement, like one for references. Finally, all these triple are saved as an annotation based on rdf model to Pundit annotations server.
Firstly, we are going to track the user using API to check if he/she is login and if not redirect to login page. User can still anonymously annotate text as usual like an anonymous user edits pages on Mediawiki.
I will package Pundit integrated with Wikidata vocabulary (that will be fetched from Wikidata accordingly) and selectors, and a whole new GUI (different than already available Pundit GUI) as a browser plugin and as a bookmarklet.
I will provide a GUI to the user so that he/she can annotate text. Note: Pundit already provides a GUI, we will alter according to our needs as most suitable.
choose a subject (i.e. an item), by default it will be the sentence user highlighted.
'Can't find what you are looking for? Propose a property', and then we will redirect the user to property proposal page (A page where you can propose new properties for Wikidata). After this step, till now the annotation has become a claim.
In the next step we will gather sources of the annotation such as gathering website url, book's name (Wikisource) and many more. If we can't find sources we will provide an interface to user to input them himself, so as to convert the claim to statement through references.
Pundit will analyze the annotation as subject, object and predicate, pack it as statement and then save it at Pundit server.
The flow will be unidirectional, that the user create annotations, save it on Pundit server, it is also synchronized with Wikidata item's page.
Further extensions to this project can be bidirectionality.
Wikibase API: I am going to use API for Wikidata for the interaction related to the latter, currently it is in stable state and is regularly maintained. I will interact with Wikidata item pages through this API. Second job this API will do is to retrieve items, values and properties from Wikidata as to present to user so he/she can create their own statements. Also the login status of the user will be checked through this API.
QUnit: I will be using QUnit Test framework provided by the jQuery foundation to test my code against many testing scenarios. This is openly available software lincesed under MIT license.
In some cases the code may be extended from the existing external tools present at Wikimedia labs.
Create a plugin that would can provide function of annotating text and then feed that annotated text to Wikidata.
Plugin must use existing properties available from Wikidata, if not available ask for creating a new one.
Plugin must allow users to create items on the fly.
Provide references by taking source URL and quotations in considerations.
Show the user with the plugin activated the annotations made by previous users of an annotation source.
Create a Mediawiki extension for the same and thus increasing the reach.
1 April 22 - May 3 Familiarising myself with the mentors, codebase and my project. As I am already in contact with my mentors for a long time, I have also gone through the codebase, so it won't take much long to accomplish this task.
2 May 4 - May 16 Create a prototype plugin for the Annotator and write its initial code. Also write the login functionality.
3 May 17 - May 23 Write unit tests and test the initial code.
4 May 23 - June 5 Use Pundit's entity extractor to extract entities from sentence and start altering the GUI provided by the existing base of Pundit, Consult Wikimedia Design team for the design improvements.
5 June 5 - June 15 Write more unit tests and vigorously test the GUI and the extension by creating various scenarios. Fix up any bugs found during testing.
6 June 15- June 25 Use Wikidata API to retrieve existing properties on selected text and show suggestions.
7 June 25 - July 10 Parse the statement (subject-predicate-object) to the Wikidata and save them on items pages using Wikidata API. Also saving on the Pundit's server to show further users what was annotated before them.
8 July 10 -July 19 Create a bot that fetches annotations from Pundit server and feeds them to wikidata regularly.
9 July 19 - July 22 Brush up documentation, add comments and package the plugin.
10 July 22 - August 1 Write unit tests and test repeatedly. Fix any bug found during tests. Packup plugin for public use.
August 18 Firm pencil down date.
11 August 21 Submit the extension to Google and launch the plugin on initial scale with help of Mediawiki and my mentors.
Since I am creating a plugin for a which can also be easily saved in bookmark, it won't take much time to implement since pundit already the functionality of packaging it in the bookmarklet, the major time will be consumed in setting up the plugin. So initial code will be based on setting up the pundit to be in synchronization with Mediawiki. In this phase the login functionality through Mediawiki will also be implemented. Login functionality will be based on the data provided by API as explained here.
Again unit tests written in QUnitTest module will test the whole code to find if anything is broken, hence improving the overall stability of the code. I any errors are found they all have to be fixed regularly during this period.
During this time I will create a bot based on the PyWikipediaBot that will regularly fetch annotations from the Pundit server and feed them to the Wikidata in a proper manner based on RDF model. Here subject in the annotation on Pundit server will become item, predicates as a property while the object as the value and these will be feed to Item's page on Wikidata by the use Wikibase API.
Again write QUnit Tests avaliable by jQuery foundation to test the whole code and in turn fix up any bugs found that can break down the plugin.
Launch the plugin for the public and fix any bugs found by them by actively working on it.
Submitting the source code to google for final evaluation and launching the plugin officially for the use by the public, and hence finishing up the project.
If the time permits I would create an extension for the plugin on Mediawiki and host up a testing scenario at Wikimedia labs, thus increasing the reach of the project.
For me, It was and will be always - Sharing is Caring. This has always helped me to get well with the Wikimedia community. I will publish all my completion reports on my blog weekly. All source code I write will be published to my Github repository and will be pushed to branch in Pundit repository also to make sure of collaboration. I always try to stay live in IRC, and am regular in replying to emails, so it helps me to blend in the community. Testing and documentation will be added to the Wikitech Mail page. I am mostly available on #mediawiki, #wikimedia-dev, #wikidata during my working hours. I usually hangout with my mentors to discuss the ideas, I always post our discussions and question on our google group which is free to everyone to join.
I am having summer vacations from April end to July mid, after that I will have to spend 28 hours per weeks to studies, which doesn't affect my work timings, so I think I would be able to complete my project in time and will continue working on developing it further in time once GSoC is completed. Coming from remote village in valleys of Himachal Pradesh, I love the idea of open source and think that 'Sharing is Caring' and hope that this idea will spread more through the communities like Mediawiki and projects like GSoC.
I am highly passionate about open-source software and security. You can see my other open-source projects on my GitHub profile mentioned below. I assure dedication of at least 40 hours per week to the work and that I do not have any other obligations during the period of the program, with the obvious exception of regular academics. A major part of this duration is summer holidays where I'll be working from my home. Also, if any part of the proposal is not clear, I'll be very happy to clarify.

"The Fulton County school board appears ready to make a push to become the largest system in the state to take the charter school tenets of flexibility and increased parental involvement system-wide."
In DeKalb County, parents have no chance starting a charter school (just ask the awesome parents who founded The Museum School of Avondale), unless it's a charter run by old DCSS administrators (The DeKalb Leadership Prep Academy, located on the New Birth campus, for which we pay New Birth $10,000 a mont in rent, is run by former DCSS Central Office administrator, the disgraced Frankie Callaway, check this out on Frankie).
But the Fulton County School System, our neighbor, which is as diverse as DCSS, and faces our same financial issues, isn't as closed minded about charter schools.
Can you imagine any DCS Central Office bureuacrat ever saying somehting along these lines?
"Martha Greenway, deputy superintendent for organizational advancement, said the feedback from parents and staff showed an interest in more flexibility in the delivery of instruction, providing the potential for more innovative learning via the Internet, in-the-field experiences and hands-on experience. There were calls for more foreign language and music programs and for teachers to be evaluated more on performance and less on years of service, Greenway said."
Can you imagine this in our county: "Among student groups, one of the stated priorities was a system that promotes teachers who are really engaged and committed to student learning, something that might not have always been achieved in the past, she said."
Can you imagine a Central Office and Board of Education who trusts parents, who are open to change, who don't have to micro-manage and waste tens of millions on crap like eSIS, America's Chpice and the Audria Berry-led Office of School Improvement?
If Fulton can, then we can darn sure do it here in DeKalb!
P.S. Fulton's Supt. Cindy Loe is retiring from Fulton. How about asking her to come over here to Dekalb for a few years!!
Fulton appears set to switch to charter schools
The Fulton County school board appears ready to make a push to become the largest system in the state to take the charter school tenets of flexibility and increased parental involvement system-wide.
Board members don't officially vote until Feb. 24 on whether to petition the state to become one of Georgia's first charter school systems, as well as its biggest with 92,000 students. But at a board retreat last week, the consensus of the majority was to proceed, officials said.
"I feel good about moving forward to develop more specifics of the petition," Linda Schultz, school board chairwoman, told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
School Superintendent Cindy Loe said she's also supportive of going ahead with plans for the system to become a charter system.
"I think it could be a great thing for the system and for the community as a whole to rally around," Loe said, "and I think that there are great potentials for continuing to improve student achievement from having that support and buy-in from the community."
Currently, eight of the state's 180 public school districts -- city systems Cartersville, Decatur, Gainesville and Marietta, plus Floyd, Putnam, Warren and White counties -- are state-approved charter school systems, with school-level control over budgets, programs, personnel and innovation. Several other systems have pending charter applications.
All systems have until 2013 to pick one of three paths: retaining the status quo or becoming either an IE2 system or a charter system.
Last year, Fulton nixed the idea of becoming an IE2 system, which presents with the potential for greater flexibility from state rules but a top-down administrative approach. The status quo was never considered a viable option.
Board members solicited feedback from the public last fall on the pros and pitfalls of a charter system. Nine hundred people appeared at a series of public forums. Eighty others submitted written comments and more than 70 students weighed in as well.
"I was impressed by the quality of suggestions that we received during the forums," Schultz said. "It was clear to me that our staff, parents and community felt we could improve student achievement with additional flexibility in specific areas."
School board members have said they want the switch to a charter system to be cost-neutral. One of the next steps would likely be considering each recommendation for what rule changes might be required and what expenses might be involved, Loe said.
For example, one of the frequent themes in the feedback was the desire for smaller class sizes, she said. That would not require a rule change, but it would have to be pointed out that reducing class sizes means hiring more teachers, Loe said.
"Class size is so expensive, that would be a hard thing to do," she said.
Martha Greenway, deputy superintendent for organizational advancement, said the feedback from parents and staff showed an interest in more flexibility in the delivery of instruction, providing the potential for more innovative learning via the Internet, in-the-field experiences and hands-on experience.
There were calls for more foreign language and music programs and for teachers to be evaluated more on performance and less on years of service, Greenway said.
Among student groups, one of the stated priorities was a system that promotes teachers who are really engaged and committed to student learning, something that might not have always been achieved in the past, she said.
Loe said a lot of ground still has to be covered before the transition to a charter system starts, which would be August 2012 at the earliest.
"We're still on track for that possibility, if everything keeps looking positive," she said.

Congratulations to these schools.
I've heard bits and pieces about the battle the Museum School parent went through. Can anyone give me the rundown of what happened, and how they finally got permission to officially start the school?
I am on the Charter committee to update and review our charter at North Spring Charter High School. I will let you guys know how it goes. I am real excited to be a part of the process and I am interesting in learning in detail about the process more.
We are going to try to improve our charter and continue it despite the school sytem becoming a charter.
Would becoming a charter district allow for the complete dismantling of the Office of School Improvement and the army of unnecessary teacher coaches along with the Office of Curriculum and Development or whatever Beasley's job and department are? If we could get rid of these two departments than schools would be able to come up with innovative ways to make students achieve and learn the Georgia standards.
The problem is that the DCSS officials are intellectually capable of writing a charter district petition.
@Anon 5:05 According to the Georgia DOE site, Schools that have been recognized as a Georgia School of Excellence in the past five years are not eligible to win again UNLESS the only school or schools eligible to receive the honor in a certain district have won within the last five years.
I hope this explains why DeKalb schools are not included.
@ Anonymous 8:24 PM
Surely you mean,"The problem is that the DCSS officials are intellectually INcapable of writing a charter district petition."
Yup. That is what I meant.
I beg to differ about DCCS being incapable of writing charter petitions. While some may be incapable, they are resourceful!Obviously someone wrote the one for Leadership Academy. There is a Phi Beta Kappa administrator on staff whose capabilities have not been utilized to the fullest. There are others who are capable but obviously those in power are threatened by them.
What they are very capable of is insulting the intelligence of parents and taxpayers. They are also capable of and are perturbing almost an entire county of parents and taxpayers who have the best interests of the children at heart.
When you really think about it, how can a few unscrupulous people seem to be so powerful while those who provide the monies to fund their lifestyles stand helplessly by? I am a senior adult who must carefully budget in order to pay property taxes, utilities, while others enjoy the fruits of my labor. While looking at the salaries, I could not believe that an unskilled warehouseman makes 77k! This is going on not only in this school system but in state government with our elected officials (public servants)being treated to lavish gifts, trips, and meals by the lobbyists.
Showing up in record numbers to voice dissatisfaction and becoming organized with strategies is how to put an end to this unbelievable mess!
The Museum School was denied a charter by the county, but the state gave them one. They also wanted to rent the old Forrest Hills and were denied access to that by the county as well.
I would like to see legislation introduced whereby charters MUST use or MUST be allowed to use vacant county school buildings before paying exorbitant amounts of rent to others.
Has any BOE member discussed how these vacant properties can be utilized rather than spending money to maintain them?
Does the public get a vote in the path the county chooses? Have these conversations been started/completed (I missed them if they did)? At this point, I do not trust our elected board to make a decision this important.

There already is a law that requires school systems to make unused schools available to charters. However, it is poorly written, and as first ICS then TMS learned when trying to rent the closed Forrest Hills, school systems can effectively comply and not comply at the same time by making the buildings "available" at very unfavorable terms with regard to cost and lenghth of lease.
Or you can just have friends in the right place and get 10 grand a month for your church from DCSS to run a "separate" school administered by a disgraced former county official. :)
The Museum School was denied a charter by the district because they wanted to restrict their attendance zone to the 30002 zip code ONLY. They didn't even want to open the attendance area up to the two elementary school zones that they cited in their charter repeatedly as being the reason that they wanted to open a charter school. The district advised them that they would have to open the zone up to the entire county & that change was not made. The charter was denied, and they took their argument to the State Charter Commission. Lo and behold, the State Charter Commission told them the SAME thing...and they changed their attendance zone.
The district didn't have a problem with The Museum School's charter, just the appearance that it was intended to be a school for a particular area of the county (which is not allowed under charter regulations).
Looked at one way, TMS parents were trying to create the neighborhood school they had been denied by DCSS's repeated rebuffing of their attempts to work with Forrest Hills and Avondale. This view coincides with how Avondale sees itself.
Looked at another way, TMS parents specifically sought to exclude poor kids, like the refugee kids that attend ICS, literally across the street. This view coincides with the private enlarged drainage ditch, er, lake image Avondale too often projects.
Looked at a third way, the TMS parents really should have looked at how it looked to people besides themselves when they tried to make TMS exclusive. :)
Hawthorne parents are looking into this.
The Museum School of Avondale Estates began as an initiative by local parents empowered to create an innovative, quality public school located in or near their own community. The movement was based on school choice and the desire to offer another quality public option in the community – to serve as many children as possible while maintaining the mission to create a community school.
Diversity is an important characteristic of The Museum School, and school and board leadership are, and will always be, committed to ensuring a diverse population of students, staff and board members.
In the process of planning the school, organizers quickly realized that opening the attendance zone to all of DeKalb County would, within a few short years and possibly immediately, force the creation of an overcrowded lottery system with a long waiting list each year.
Therefore, in choosing the 30002 ZIP code as the original proposed attendance zone, they sought to create a zone that was more diverse, racially and socio-economically, than the city of Avondale Estates itself, yet still manageable in terms of the number of children located within that zone. In fact, the 30002 ZIP code area is as diverse as the current attendance zone.
In its letter denying a charter to The Museum School, the DeKalb County School System did cite a concern about the proposed attendance zone, but the county also cited the school's museum concept and its potential partner list among other reasons for the denial. The state of Georgia voiced only a concern about the sustainability of the attendance zone size, not its diversity, and Museum School organizers were happy to amend the zone to include a wider geographical area and still be able to achieve a quality, public school located within the community.
The school's attendance zone has roughly the same racial and socio-economic demographics as those of DeKalb County. In addition, it is governed by a diverse board that welcomes application for board membership from anyone interested in applying, regardless of residency within the attendance zone.
Please visit the school and see for yourself what it's all about: Tour the school, attend board meetings and meet board members and school leaders. Most importantly, visit the classrooms and see student diversity for yourself.
Museum School board and school leaders continue to work hard toward the inclusion of all families within the diverse attendance zone.
"In its letter denying a charter to The Museum School, the DeKalb County School System did cite a concern about the proposed attendance zone, but the county also cited the school's museum concept and its potential partner list among other reasons for the denial."
And the school system cited in its denial that the Museum School didn't have any former Central Office administrators on payroll...
Imagine, Forrest Hills, a small community school (<300 students), starts deteriorating academically.
Forrest Hills is closed.
The Museum School is opened. The Museum School has much better scores than Forrest Hills. (I wonder which school(s) the former bused - read, apartment - students of Forrest Hills attend?) The Museum School petitions to use the closed Forrest Hills building.
The Museum School becomes a better, demographically different, Forrest Hills, but with an application. All within a few years.
I'm not saying that that is what happened/is happening, but that is how it looks from the outside.
And that is coming from a parent who loves/utilizes/advocates school choice.
Charter schools are great! The atmosphere for learning and professionalism is outstanding from parents view point.
For example, the favortism and corrupt that principals display in DCSS is not evident.
Administrators in DCSS need sensitivity training and how to conduct meetings on planning for effective instructions

Q: Display plot from new window plot in Rmarkdown I am new to rmarkdown and I would like to show a plot which is normally produced in a new window. This plot is called from a function that displays it in a new window using plot.new() and dev.new() and also adds several plots in that window.
How can I return this to the report?
the following does not return the plots...
```{r  fig.keep='all', fig.width=10, fig.height=5}

Draw_matrix_plots(data)

```

and the function skeleton I am calling which draws four plots in a new window:
Draw_matrix_plots <- function(data){
  plot.new()
  dev.new(width=7, height=8)
  layout(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), 2, 2, byrow = TRUE),heights=c(3,3))
  hist(data$A)
  hist(data$B)
  hist(data$C)
  hist(data$D)
}

Thanks

A: I think you just don't need the dev.new(), the following code produce
 ---
title: "Test"
ouptut: pdf_document
---

# R code

```{r  fig.keep='all', fig.width=10, fig.height=5}
Draw_matrix_plots <- function(){
  layout(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), 2, 2, byrow = TRUE),heights=c(3,3))
  hist(rnorm(100))
  hist(rnorm(100))
  hist(rnorm(100))
  hist(rnorm(100))
}
Draw_matrix_plots()

```

You can check that the figures are created in the /figure folder. I have the same with html_document as an output. Does that help ?


School is the valued 'home away from home' for most children. Your child's experience in the primary grades from kindergarten through third grade is critical - much in the same way that an infant's first connection with a parent is so important. If your child forms a strong bond with teachers and fellow students and responds to the curriculum in a positive way, he or she will be in a strong position to cope with the stormy years of adolescence. However, if your child develops feelings of anxiety, disappointment and inadequacy, he or she may have difficulty connecting with and enjoying school in the future.
The first day of kindergarten is a momentous occasion. Even though children may be accustomed to going off to nursery school, preschool, or a daycare center, entering elementary school is still a major event. Like all transitions, the new experience of starting school can create anxiety. The adjustment can be more difficult because the elementary school may be some distance from home, and the child may attend for more hours. The child is confronted with a multitude of children, most of whom are older. He or she must deal with unfamiliar peers and teachers without the presence of a parent or a familiar caretaker. Siblings who attend the same school are seldom available for comfort. The child must make it on his or her own, truly a giant step in independence.
How does a child connect to school?
First, a bond or relationship must be established between child and teacher. The child must feel safe with the teacher. The teacher represents protection and caring, as well as safety and order. This underscores the need to select a school, if possible, where the teachers are kind, compassionate and nurturing.
Second, the teacher also provides pleasure in the form of stimulation, new experiences and the safe environment so that the child can learn a variety of new activities. The teacher presents the ground rules and expectations, which should be clear and appropriate to the developmental ability of the child. This includes a cleanup routine, the expectation the child will raise a hand to request a turn to talk, and homework expectations. The teacher must be able to create a balance which acknowledges each child's individual needs, as well as models the values of fairness and equality. Important leadership roles should be rotated so that each child experiences a turn. In contrast, an upset or angry child may have to sit close to the teacher much of the day.
A bond to school is intensified when children feel comfortable taking risks in expressing their ideas, their solutions to problems, and their creative endeavors. Children need to risk making mistakes. Commitment to school is helped when children are free to participate courageously in the learning process rather than mastering only what the curriculum demands. The bond to school and teachers is strengthened further when the individual needs of the child are addressed and the child feels that the environment is caring, safe and interesting. It may take considerable time and effort to find a school or a teacher that will supply all this, but it is worth the effort.
Most children attend the local elementary school; however, additional school options are available for parents who are financially able and willing to pay for private education. If you have some school choices, keep in mind that what ultimately counts is what goes on with the teacher in the classroom. Visit the school if possible and watch the prospective teacher. Many schools will permit this. It is surprising how much you can learn about schools and teachers by watching and listening for 30 minutes. Remember, in the area of education, you need to be your child's advocate.
Clarify what you are looking for in a school. Begin by reflecting on your own early schooldays. Do you have good memories of your school years? And do you want to find an environment that will give your child a similar experience? Should the school have the same kind of philosophy and structure as the one you attended? Or are you looking for a different approach than one you hated or found stressful when you were in school?
When considering a school for your children, it is important to explore the policy concerning discipline. For example, is corporal punishment allowed? If parents have a choice, such schools should be avoided. Punishment is abusive and counter-productive. It can and often does frighten all students, even those who are not so assaulted. Despite the fact that certain schools permit corporal punishment, most educators strongly condemn these practices. Parents need to have the courage to switch teachers or schools or even opt for home schooling if the child does not feel safe in the classroom.
Many five and six year olds cannot sustain extended intervals of sitting, listening, or doing paperwork. When mainly desk work is offered and valued, these children end up feeling unsuccessful and stressed. For these young school age children, it may take participation in other activities such as blocks, woodwork, clay, music, dramatic play, free outdoor play, and trips into the community to create a positive connection with school. They allow children to associate school with pleasurable experiences that help create a bond to school and help them with their later academic work.
We all realize that reading, writing, math, and social studies are very important. However, some parents may feel that experiences other than academics are not what school is about, that paperwork and right and wrong answers are what count. But for many young children, the positive connection to school will not be established unless a variety of experiences are provided. It is helpful if parents can take pleasure in the child's participation in a broad spectrum of school activities.
It is often assumed that a structured or formal school is required to control behavior of highly active or aggressive children, but such a formal environment can create expectations for behavior that the child cannot fulfill. It would be preferable to select a school that provides more opportunities for productive creative play and study, giving the child an environment more attuned to his or her level of physical activity and maturity.
When children are asked what they like best about school, they frequently answer 'recess' or 'lunch.' These are the times when children are not evaluated or expected to be quiet. They can be themselves and not expected to sit still, listen or perform. Of course the goal of education is to inspire and to develop a sense of wonder and mastery so that most of the school day can be as much fun as recess.

Kevin Snead
By Ezra Levine
From Richmond, Virginia, Snead was voted the fastest man in college football by the US track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association of America. Snead attended Carson-Newman University, a D II school. There, Snead set school records for the 100 and 200-meter dashes and earned All-America honors during indoor season.
On the football field, he is a raw; however, accordingly to NFL.com, he possesses legitimate world-class speed that could make him the fastest man in the league and an explosive leaper. During Pro Day, his 40-yard dash clocked in anywhere from 4.22 seconds to 4.26 seconds, and ran the 100 meter in 10.21 seconds.
Undrafted, the WR/KR was signed by the New York Giants after tryouts. He showed explosive potential during the preseason and garnered Tyreek Hill (Chiefs) comparisons, but was waived due to a leg injury.
The 6'0″, 190 lb. Snead will suit up in The Spring League in 2018 to show scouts there's much more to his game than just awe-inspiring speed.

This investigation is concerned with what three children remembered or had forgotten of a second language after an interval of two years. An in-depth study, consisting of recognition and recall tests, was made of 13-year-old identical twin girls and their 9-year-old brother, who previously had been English/French bilinguals. A phenomenological approach was taken, which included the children's reaction to the tests, and their description of the personal framework within which the learning and forgetting had taken place. The findings, which are suggestive due to limited data, are: first, cognitive and maturational differences between the children caused the twins to retain more recognition and active recall of French than their brother; second, the twins showed a surprising difference in their recognition of French, pos9ibly caused by affective factors; third, all three children showed strongest recognition in the area of semantics, while in recall they retained phonology best; fourth, in the tests, habit memory and episodic memory were more durable than semantic memory. The investigation is a first step towards understanding how children forget a language in which they have been submersed.
