What About Social Promotion?

Walt Gardner
Walt Gardner taught for 28 years in the Los Angeles Unified School District and was a lecturer in the UCLA Graduate School of Education.
With the end of the spring semester rapidly approaching, teachers once again will have to confront the issue of social promotion. For years, research seemed to be on the side of moving students to the next grade whether or not they mastered the material because it showed that holding students back is harmful.
But a study released this month, "The Benefits of Florida's Test-Based Promotion System," by the Manhattan Institute's Center for State and Local Leadership found that retention is beneficial. Specifically, students in the third grade who were detained and given remediation did better in the short and long run than those who were promoted. The study examined the performance of students who just passed the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test with those who just missed the mark.
By looking at these essentially identical groups, Marcus A. Winters, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, says that the study avoids "unobserved differences" such as maturity level or home environment that calls into question previous research into the matter. He explains how two students with identical test scores at the end of the school year can result in different decisions. A teacher could conclude that one student has the maturity level to be promoted, while a researcher could not draw the same conclusion because the student's maturity level does not appear in the data.
Nevertheless, it's important to remember that the benefits of retention cited by Winters are based on the rigorous remediation provided by a mandatory summer reading camp and by highly effective teachers the following school year. Rather than give this help to students in that time frame, why not do so during the present school year? Wouldn't that approach be far more beneficial? Students who are so identified could immediately get the necessary assistance in the form of after-school and Saturday tutoring, shielding them from the psychological harm done by being held back. The RAND Corporation, for example, found that at-risk students in New York City who were identified early and provided additional support did not have to repeat the school year.
All teachers could provide this support through the use of formative assessment. As W. James Popham explains in Transformative Assessment (ASCD, 2008), it is "a planned process in which teachers or students use assessment-based evidence to adjust what they're currently doing." This feedback during the school year has the potential to help students avoid repeating a grade and spare teachers the pain of making that decision. I stress the importance of early intervention in order to put an end to the extreme swings of the promotion pendulum, which have undermined taxpayer confidence in public schools.
The opinions expressed in Walt Gardner's Reality Check are strictly those of the author(s) and do not reflect the opinions or endorsement of Editorial Projects in Education, or any of its publications.

ha ha, I love how oblivious he was to you pointing stuff out about his 'mean friend'.
It's horrible that he acts up but I love the stories. He's adorable!
But he is just so darn cute. I'm sure I would cave a lot.
If patience was water, you'd be an ocean.
Remeber "my buddy"the Chucky doll? I had to take him away from my kid because he was abusing him, putting him in time out and just mistreating him, it wasnt enough to be mean to real kids, he had to be mean to fake kids too!
I think your "little kid" and my "la nina loca" are perfect for one another! An arranged marriage?? Will you fix the stuffing every year at Thanksgiving?
Him calling you woman is killing me!
Isn't Hot Lips a MASH reference? Your kids are too funny!
We don't really like David very much anymore. He's so naughty - bad manners, disobeys, does whatever he wants. He is on his last leg around here.

The firmware runs on the microcontroller. The firmware was written as a C/C++
Arduino-compatible library. However, in our code, we mostly use custom
drivers, such as for PWM ([pulse-width
modulation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation)) and ADC
([analog-to-digital
converter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog-to-digital_converter)),
instead of using Arduino's `analogWrite()` and `analogRead()`. We use the
Adafruit Feather nRF52840 board definition. Below are three ways to
program/compile firmware.

## How to flash device firmware given an ino.zip

Given an ino.zip file, you can update the device firmware over a USB
connection using the
[flash_firmware.py script](../tools/flash_firmware/index.md).

## Programming and with USB

This is a standard and convenient way to program an Arduino board and can be
done from the Arduino IDE. This way the source code can be modified and
compiled. The installation steps:

1.  Download the latest [Arduino IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software)

2.  Go to Arduino Preferences. Add
    https://www.adafruit.com/package_adafruit_index.json to Additional Board
    Manager URLs. For additional details see
    [Adafruit installation guide](https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-the-adafruit-nrf52840-feather/arduino-bsp-setup).

    ![Additional boards URL](arduino_additional_boards_urls.jpg)

3.  Go to *Tools → Boards → Boards Manager...* Type *feather* in the
    search bar. Install the latest version of Adafruit nRF52 boards.

    ![Board manager](arduino_board_manager.jpg)

4.  Select the Adafruit Feather nRF52840 board.

    ![Board selection](board_selection.jpg)

5.  Install the audio-to-tactile library by copying into it Arduino Libraries
    folder:

    Mac OSx: `Documents/Arduino/libraries`

    Linux: `~/Arduino/libraries`

6.  Restart the Arduino IDE.

7.  Select the correct USB-serial port by going to *Tools → Ports.* You
    should see something like "`/dev/cu.usbmodem14301`" on Mac OSx. On
    Windows it will be COM#.

8.  Connect the device with USB to the computer. Compile and upload the code by
    clicking the upload button in the Arduino IDE.

## Flashing bootloader with J-link

If you are building the board from scratch or the bootloader is bricked, the
bootloader needs to be flashed. The bootloader can easily get bricked during
development if buggy code is uploaded. You will need a J-link programmer such as
[Segger EDU mini](https://www.segger.com/products/debug-probes/j-link/models/j-link-edu-mini/)
and a
[pogo-pin adapter](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/TC2030-CTX/TC2030-CTX-ND/5023324)
by TagConnect.

1.  Connect J-link to the board. Note that the J-link doesn't provide power. The
    programmer could be held by hand while programming or secured using a
    [retainer clip](https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/TC2030-CLIP/TC2030-CLIP-ND/2605371)
    [attaching programmer](programming_pogo_pins.jpg)

2.  Select the Adafruit Feather nRF52840 board
    (*Tools → Board → ...*).

3.  Burn bootloader: *Tools → Burn Bootloader.*

4.  If successful, USB-serial port should show up in *Tools → Port*

## Programming with BLE Over-The-Air (OTA)

The microcontroller can be programmed wirelessly over Bluetooth. This requires
the Android application. I would not recommend this option during code
development, as it requires more steps and time to get the code into the board.

1.  Generate the firmware file. This can be done using Arduino IDE. Enable
    verbose output by going to *Arduino → Preferences → Check "Show
    Verbose Output"* during compilation and upload.

2.  Compile and run the code in Arduino (make sure verbose output is enabled).
    You should see something like this in terminal output, with the
    `/var/folders..` is the path to the zip file, that can be used in OTA
    updates:

    ```sh
    /Users/$USER/Library/Arduino15/packages/adafruit/hardware/nrf52/0.24.0/tools/adafruit-nrfutil/macos/adafruit-nrfutil
    --verbose dfu serial -pkg
    /var/folders/wt/byc7v8fx4wn5vh54frzbd4gc00kcvr/T/arduino_build_196049/blinky_ota.ino.zip
    -p /dev/cu.usbmodem141401 -b 115200 --singlebank
    ```

3.  I usually copy the path into the Chrome address bar, and that automatically
    starts the download of the zip file.

4.  Copy that file to the phone. There are various ways to do it: using ADB
    debugger, connected over USB to a computer, or copying to Google Drive.

5.  Open the Firmware tab in the dropdown menu in the Android app. Click on
    update and select the zip file. The default settings should work.

Q: google search page - barcode input triggers event I need a similar thing as google does on their search page. If the user enters something via keyboard or barcode scanner anywhere on the page, this input will be put in the search textbox. It really doesn't matter where the focus is (except other textboxes).
Can someone give me a hint how to handle/capture such events or where those events are triggerd? I need this in an GWT application but native javascript should be ok too.

A: For input entered via keyboard you should look at the javascript onkeydown or jQuery keydown event bound to the body tag.
Barcode scanner are a little more complicated. If the scanner behaves like a keyboard the above should work for the scanner too, but some scanners write the data to the clipboard and paste it under the cursor. If that's the case, see this Stackoverflow answer from two weeks ago.

It seems simple enough. Good trail etiquette and safety call for mountain bikers to yield to other users. But when that other user is a horse, some extra precautions are necessary. Why? You could call it the nature of the beast.
The most important thing for a bicyclist to know is that a horse reverts to instinct when it is frightened. As the species developed, survival depended on a good flight response, and that instinct is never far from the surface in a horse. In short, if you spook a horse, it will try to escape. This may include a sudden turn or rearing, which could unseat a rider.
The next important thing to keep in mind is that horses are big and powerful. When you go down and your bike lands on you it's usually not a big deal. Twelve hundred pounds of horse is another matter.
So it's very important, for your safety and the equestrian's, that you not spook a horse. It's also important, if we are to share trails with equestrians, that we get along.
Horseback riders would come from around the world to ride in the Flint Hills.

Q: How would I create an index for an element that's part of an array in cloudant nosql? Let's say there's a Document such as the following
{
    _id:1234,
    pages:[
    {"name":"a","content":"a1"},
    {"name":"b","content":"b1"},
    {"name":"c","content":"c1"},
    ]
}

How would I create a Primary Index, in order to query "name" as a field?

A: You could create a map-reduce view to achieve what you want:
function(doc) {
    if (doc && doc.pages) {
        doc.pages.forEach(function (row) {
            if (row.name) {
                emit(row.name, 1);
                // or if you want to lookup the content part, use
                // emit(row.name, row.content);
            }
        });
    }
 }

Cassell Coliseum is a 10,052-seat multi-purpose arena in Blacksburg, Virginia, United States, that opened in 1962. It is home to the Virginia Tech Hokies men's and women's basketball teams, wrestling team, and volleyball team.

History

Built as a replacement for the much smaller War Memorial Gymnasium, the Coliseum's construction began in 1961.  It was fully completed in December 1964 at a cost of $2.7 million. It was designed by Carneal and Johnston (now Ballou Justice Upton Architects, Richmond, Va) and built by T.C. Brittain and Company of Decatur, Georgia.  Originally just referred to as "the Coliseum," it was dedicated on September 17, 1977 to the late Stuart K. Cassell, former school business manager, first Vice President of Administration, and major supporter of the building of the arena.

The first game was on January 3, 1962, when the Hokies played Alabama. The Hokies won 91-67. Unfortunately, the crowd sat on the bare concrete risers to watch the game because the seats had not arrived.

In the early years of the Coliseum, the Hokies frequently saw capacity crowds pack the venue.  However, student and alumni interest in basketball decreased in the 1990s due to the Hokies' lack of a stable basketball conference home (the Hokies were in three different conferences in nine seasons) and due to the success of the football team.  Fan support began to gain momentum under coach Seth Greenberg and the school's recent move to the ACC. A raucous student section, nicknamed the "Cassell Guard," has helped transform the Coliseum into a difficult venue for opposing teams in an athletic conference ripe with intimidating basketball arenas.

On June 27, 1996, a 27 year old construction worker fell  to his death on the coliseum floor. Dewey Wayne Duncan, of Pulaski, VA, who was working outside the coliseum for a contractor making repairs to the roof, stepped on a section of the roof that was covered only by a ceiling tile. The tile collapsed, and Duncan fell through the roof.

On April 17, 2007, a memorial convocation was held there in response to the shootings of 32 students and faculty on the Virginia Tech campus the previous day.  President George W. Bush and his wife Laura attended the event.

Over the years, Cassell has undergone various updates, most recently those being a new sound system, new lights inside building over the court, as well as a refinished court.

On August 5, 2015, it was reported that Carilion Clinic has bought naming rights to the arena's court for $500,000 a year for the next 10 years.  The Virginia Tech Carilion Court at Cassell Coliseum was dedicated in December 2015.

Prior to the 2017-18 season, half of the old wooden seats were replaced with larger plastic seats, reducing the capacity.

Major games

On January 10, 1983, the Virginia Tech men's basketball team defeated the number one ranked Memphis State Tigers 69-56 in front of 10,000 fans.  It was the first time a number one team had played in Cassell Coliseum and the Hokies first win over a number one ranked team.

On February 17, 2005, during Virginia Tech's first season in the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Blue Devils were ranked 7th nationally.  By the end of the night, the Blue Devils were handed a 67-65 loss by the Hokies in front of 9,847 fans.  It was the first time that Virginia Tech had beaten Duke since 1966.

On January 13, 2007, Virginia Tech defeated the number one ranked North Carolina Tar Heels 94-88.  At one point in the game, the Hokies led by 29 points.  They were able to hold off a strong surge by the Tar Heels to seal the victory.

On March 22, 2010, Virginia Tech beat UConn in Cassell on national television in the second round of the NIT tournament. Trailing 63-62, the Hokies' defense pressured Connecticut into a backcourt violation. With 14.1 seconds remaining, the Hokies took the lead with a Dorenzo Hudson jump shot. The Hokies' defense was able to stop Connecticut from scoring for a 65-62 victory.

On February 26, 2011, Duke fell to Virginia Tech 64-60.  At the time Duke was the number one ranked team in the country.  It was Virginia Tech's fourth upset of a number one ranked team under Seth Greenberg. New York Giant, David Wilson was seen doing back flips on the court with classmate and track & field star, Nick McLaughlin following a halftime award ceremony recognizing the 2011 ACC Indoor Track and Field Champions.

The largest crowd ever at the Cassell was 11,500 for a game against Purdue on December 3, 1966.

                                Email

A: This how we add row in a table:-
First I have given ID (myTable) to the table to reference it in javascript.

                                Email

Javascript snippet (go through comments to understand what it does):-
getTableData.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if(getTableData.readyState === 4) {
            var tableInfo     = JSON.parse(getTableData.responseText);
            console.log(tableInfo);
            var tableHeading  = tableInfo.Email_Address;

            var tableRef = document.getElementById('myTable');

            // Insert a row in the table at row at last index
            var newRow   = tableRef.insertRow(tableRef.rows.length);

            // Insert a cell in the row at index 0
            var newCell  = newRow.insertCell(0);

            // Append a text node to the cell
            var newText  = document.createTextNode(tableHeading);

            newCell.appendChild(newText);
        };
    };

Above solution should be enough for you to achieve further things by making some changes here and there.

These two MADs (mandibular advancement devices) make by Ripsnore and PureSleep both work with varying levels of success.
My wife and I slept comfortably while utilizing the PureSleep but the bulky and ill-fitting Ripsnore presented some challenges throughout the night.
You will need to get assured that the appropriate process is done correctly with both stop snoring devices. Assuming a few significant details about both items will help you make an informed decision as to which is best for you.
The order and shipping took much longer than many of the other anti-snoring appliances I have tried. Before they allow you to buy it, you have to fill out a 21-question form. I felt glad that that company seemed like it genuinely cared about my conditions and if I would be a suitable applicant for the product or not. I was a little put-off by the two-week ship time.
I knew how you just had one chance to go this precisely, so my wife and I made convinced that we made all the right adjustments the first time. Many devices allow some minor changes later, but the PureSleep is not as lenient.
The first night, the device worked well, and I only experienced a very slight soreness. My wife was not very satisfied to wake up with the irritated mouth also. However, behind a few days, the soreness went away, and my spouse felt fine for the rest of the week.
My teen informed that he did not hear any snoring coming from our room when we applied PureSleep.
Despite the comfort and efficiency, the cleaning process is a bit of a hassle. Comparatively speaking, this appliance took much longer to sanitize than related snoring mouthpieces due to the customized design.
I had to wait extended than I did for many devices for the Ripsnore to arrive. The moment I opened the box, my wife and I could quickly tell that the mouthpieces were much too long.
Next three different attempts of doing the boil-and-bite fitting method, I finally got a good fit. My wife refused to wear the appliance at all because the big size kept making her gag each time she attempted to apply it.
The first night did not go great for me. Due to the size and composition of the Ripsnore, it kept falling out of my mouth. When I could momentarily get it in place, I drooled lavishly. Approximately every two hours, the Ripsnore fell out of my mouth. I woke up at midnight, many times, to clean it off and set it back in.
My spouse and I were both fatigued the next day since I had to stop getting up and my snoring was not contained.
The washing, at least, was easy but this advantage is unimportant given the ineffectiveness of the product overall. This stop snoring mouthpiece finished up a long way from my best anti-snoring device list.
The most significant downsides to the PureSleep are the fitting method and the washing. My wife would have been a lot nicer those first few nights if she had been able to accommodate it later the boil also bite like I could by the Ripsnore.
The Ripsnore is big and uncomfortable however and just did not work for us, look at my Zyppah review if you want a comparable MAD that works.
At least, however, the simple design of the Ripsnore meant that I had to spend less time than anticipated to clean it compared to the slightly more intricate PureSleep.
If you purchase either mouthguard, make sure to use a Ripsnore coupon or PureSleep Coupon.

I am Lori Spies (pronounced Speez), owner of Absolutely Organized NOW! Since 2003, I've been helping individuals establish systems that enable them to get organized, while managing and maintaining them as well.
I hold a Masters Degree in Education with a BS Degree in Parks, Recreation and Leisure Services. I guarantee you a fun, educational experience.
The fact that I was born organized makes it natural for me to work with clients who either struggle or just want a little help to achieve a higher level of organization. There are stories of me re-stacking my dresser drawer contents at the age of 3 years old, so I've been at this for a while. I like to live organized to the point that I can put my finger on any item when it is needed. There is a lot to be said for having like items with like items. We also clean spaces before we move contents into them.
After years of helping friends and family become more organized, I joined the National Association of Professional Organizers, began attending conferences and turned pro. My love of people and innate organizing abilities have made this endeavor as success.
I am also a frequent speaker for private and non-profit organizations. Call me when you are in need of a fun and engaging presenter.
I serve Montgomery, Howard and Carroll Countes.
Please give a call or send a note. I'm eager to work with you.
Document and photograph all personal valuables and assets for insurance purposes with a loss or damage to property. A CD of documentation will be secured offsite.
Note: Your information is never sold, shared or disclosed to anyone without your permission, except as required by law.
• Am I often running late?
my home or office space?
• Is there ever enough time in the day?
I'd love to visit with you.
I help you create solutions!
This is our initial conversation about your issues. I ask you some questions and together we talk about what's going on.
This assessment is on site in conjunction with our first working session together. I assess things from our conversation and am able to envision your end goal.
I will email you a Pre-Assessment Questionnaire to complete and email back to me that we will discuss together here.
We work together to create your end goal.
We work a minimum of 3 hours per visit.
By the time we have completed this organizing project, you will have the tools to maintain it.
We tear things apart and put them back together.
I don't know what I would have done without Lori to manage all but the advertising of my estate sale. She began by carefully listening to me and learning what I wanted to keep as I was downsizing my life. She determined an amount for every item sold, organized every room, and placed things throughout my home and yard with great care. She managed every intricate detail – pricing, careful display of my contents, placing high value items in one certain area, marking 'off limit areas' of the house, positioning my friends in various places to monitor activity, and she managed the money. She even took items that did not sell to my charity of choice. The best part is that in 8 hours, Lori reclaimed $3,500 for me when I may have otherwise donated most of the things.
I spent a few hours situating in my new work space this afternoon after you departed and I LOVE IT!! I am so excited and happy with our progress.
Thank you so much for moving my office project forward each and every time we work together.
You are so so amazing!
Lori helped me organize my craft/scrapbook room and I couldn't have done it without her help and expertise. She was also knowledgeable about where I could donate unwanted items that otherwise may have been thrown away. She's been considered a friend of mine since, because she has a way of making you feel like she's known you forever and she has a kind heart.
I have used Lori's business to help organize my office and my teenage son's school papers. She is so creative with different ways to handle paper clutter.
I hired Lori to organize my office. I expected her to sort everything out, but I did not expect her to create an environment that is a comfortable and relaxing place to work! She rearranged my furniture and made the space 'user friendly'. Plus, she developed an easy and effective filing system in 2005 that I am still using today.
Lori listened and took the time to feel where my pain was. I believe that was why she came up with such a workable solution for me. She taught me how to think differently about the process and I have been able to implement what she began with the launch of my new business. She saved me LOTS of time…..therefore saving me LOTS of money!!
Thank you Lori, you have made my life easier.
Thank you again, Lori for helping me with my office organization needs. You were fantastic! By presenting a number of different strategies, you gave me the tools I need to develop an organizational style that best fits me. You helped me with the daily accumulation of clutter AND a system to continue keeping it under control.
As a person in the office furniture industry, I can take the tools you gave me and give them to my clients to help them with their needs.
I want to say thank you for getting me motivated to do what I haven't bothered to do for so many years. Your fun-loving personality and background made this daunting, overwhelming and potentially traumatizing experience liberating and exciting to go through. Really enjoyed working with someone who wanted to do as much or as little as I was willing to do; someone who didn't treat our belongings as though they needed to be replaced.
Your can-do attitude inspired me to push myself even further to accomplish a myriad of tasks that previously had me wallowing in stagnation. Feels so good living in my own home, knowing and seeing it organized and clutter-free for the first time.
Lori is a great professional organizer. She loves what she does, she walks the talk and leads a very organized life herself. She is extremely personable, trustworthy and results oriented. She has been instrumental in organizing both my home and business. When I've felt overwhelmed, she made it simple and easy. I highly recommend Lori for organizing projects.
I still use the organizing system you helped me set up in my office 10 years ago!!! Been great and tailored to my personality needs.
A professional organizer is one who will help you create order out of chaos – and give you back your power to move forward.
That 'thing' that has had you stuck or unable to go forward will be addressed. You will learn how to go about finding a place for everything. A professional organizer will help you clear the clutter and establish systems to get and stay organized.
Every session begins with your goal in mind. What is it you want to accomplish? I am ready when I show up at your door. I will lead the way and things will fall into place.
The more committed and ready you are to move forward, the quicker things will go. This is about you and all you want to accomplish. Some things/areas take quite a bit of time and others take only a few hours.
I am paid following each session, by cash or check.
Are you ready to transform your life? Are you ready to make changes? This could take as long or as little as you would like. You are the boss. If you know what you need help with, we can get started right away. If you do not know exactly what 'it' is, then we can discern that in conversation and proceed. The more committed you are to making this transformation in your life, the quicker and better things will progress.
Some jobs are completed in one or two sessions and other jobs may take months. We work at your pace and speed.

Roztylské náměstí je náměstí v Praze, v obvodu a městské části Praha 4 a ve čtvrti Záběhlice, Spořilov. Vzniklo jako centrum někdejšího Starého Spořilova ve 20. letech 20. století a je jedním z největších parkových náměstí v Praze.

Popis a historie

Náměstí je poměrně úzký prostor ohraničený na severozápadní straně, kde ho protíná ulice Severovýchodní I, několika vícepodlažními domy. Stoupá jihovýchodním směrem až ke své dominantě, kterou je funkcionalistická stavba kostela svaté Anežky České. Pod kostelem protínají náměstí dvě alejové třídy vedoucí do horní, jižní poloviny Spořilova: Hlavní a Roztylské sady. Spolu s prostorem náměstí vytvářejí park ve tvaru kříže.

Obvod náměstí je lemován obytnými, převážně rodinnými domy, v přízemí některých jsou obchody či jiné provozovny. Střed celého prostoru je tvořen zelení, v severnější části se nacházejí hřiště.

V jižnější horní části náměstí stál od roku 1937 pomník legionářů (socha bojovníka od Zborova), již v roce 1940 však musel být na nátlak okupačních úřadů odstraněn a nikdy již nebyl obnoven. Názory na  případnou obnovu nejsou jednotné, i proto, že na jeho místě je nyní pomník připomínající oběti 2. světové války.

V letech 2013 a 2014 prošlo celé náměstí revitalizací. Zajímavostí je protiletecký kryt, který je postaven pod náměstím.

Burmese refugees flock to Iowa meatpacking town
Posted by Information Desk on May 6, 2013 in Feature | 0 comments
By RYAN J. FOLEY — Associated Press
COLUMBUS JUNCTION, Iowa — The first Chin Burmese student arrived at Wilma Sime Roundy Elementary School three years ago, a smiling preschooler whose father often checked on his progress.
The school had long been accustomed to educating the children of the Mexicans, Hondurans and Salvadorans who came to work at the sprawling Tyson Foods pork processing plant that sits outside this town of 2,000. But then, principal Shane Rosenberg recalled, Tyson informed school leaders that a new group of workers was coming – the Chin, a largely Christian ethnic minority who were fleeing their homeland in western Myanmar to avoid persecution.
A trickle of Chin students turned into dozens. Frustrated educators struggled to communicate, often having to call the pastor of the Chin church to interpret. Rosenberg intervened to ease the way, using grant money to hire one of the Chin to translate to and from the Hakha language. And he invited Chin parents for a welcoming ceremony and tour of the school.
"It was an awe-inspiring moment, for them to see the opportunities their children were going to have by being here in school," he said.
All told, about 400 refugees have descended on the town, and more are arriving by the week to reunite with friends and relatives and work grueling jobs for Tyson. Like other waves of immigrants, they were drawn to this poor, sparsely populated region of southeastern Iowa by the promise of jobs, good schools and welcoming people.
And as was the case with other waves of immigrants, there have been bumps along the way.
"We've had a lot of experience with Hispanic cultures, but for all of us, the Burmese thing is new. There's no one around that is an expert in that area or knows the language or this and that. That whole transition has been interesting," said Mayor Dan Wilson, a businessman who grew up on a farm outside town. He said the influx has been more easily noticed in Columbus Junction than elsewhere: "It's more obvious in a small town when you've got 200 new people coming in. You're not going to blend in here. You're going to stick out."
But Columbus Junction is working it out, and has been transformed in many ways by these newcomers, who have brought an energy and optimism that longtime residents call remarkable.
A Chin grocery store has opened downtown, on a block dominated by Mexican businesses, selling huge bags of the rice that is a staple in their diet. Not long ago, its owner was living in the Malaysian jungle after fleeing Myanmar. The Iowa Chin Baptist Church holds Sunday services for more than 300 members at a Methodist church that agreed to share its space. A community college is adding a building to expand the availability of ESL classes, which are in high demand.
"In any small town, you're always looking at: what is the future of this town going to be? And having a large group of people with young children, saying 'we'd like to live here and open some businesses,' that's very reassuring," said city community development director Mallory Smith, who helped residents open the first Chin store and restaurant and rent space for a community garden. "We're a young, growing town, which is very nice."
Ngun Za Bik stands at the front counter of his Grace Chin Store that once housed a pizza restaurant, in Columbus Junction, Iowa,
Biak Thang, 28, left his job working 10-hour days at Tyson to work as the school interpreter, which he calls a "big, big, big job" even if he took a pay cut.
"I feel that this is a good privilege that I get. I have a chance to help the kids and the parents in a time of need," he said.
He fled Myanmar to Malaysia in 2005 to avoid religious persecution and military rule that prevented gathering after 9 p.m. After being accepted to resettle in the United States, he left for North Carolina in 2008, where he worked at a furniture factory. He was reunited there with his wife, who had been jailed for six months after illegally entering Thailand.
"When I got here, I felt relief. Everything is new for me. It's a new beginning of life," Thang says.
The couple moved to Columbus Junction in 2011 and are raising two children. Thang looks forward to becoming a U.S. citizen: "It's a freedom country. I can be whatever I want."
Tyson and other meatpacking companies have increasingly recruited non-Latino workers in recent years, including Burmese, Sudanese and others, said Mark Grey, director of the Iowa Center for Immigrant Leadership and Integration at University of Northern Iowa. Since a 2008 raid of a Postville, Iowa, slaughterhouse, where 389 immigrants were arrested, companies have become more careful to avoid hiring employees who may have entered the country illegally, he said.
Refugees are in the country legally and may apply for citizenship within five years.
Tyson spokesman Gary Mickelson denied the company was favoring refugees over others, saying the industry has long attracted immigrants for entry-level jobs that do not require experience or English skills. The makeup of its workforce shifts as new immigrant groups come to the U.S., he said.
But in town, both the Chin and Spanish-speaking communities feel that more Chin are being hired at the expense of Latinos, which has caused some friction, said Cristina Ortiz, a doctoral student in anthropology who moved to Columbus Junction four years ago to study the town.
"Latinos and Chin people recognize they both have the same goals in life," she says. "That is to make their lives better and provide for their families and live a tranquil life. But in a certain sense, they are in competition with each other. They are applying for the same jobs. They have the same skills. And that's tricky. Obviously there is some tension there."
At a recent conference at the University of Iowa, Rick Rustad, a workplace chaplain at the Tyson plant in Waterloo, about 100 miles away, recalled serving as the plant's "mobile recruit" for Burmese refugees. He drove a passenger bus to meet with Burmese who had settled in different parts of Illinois, where he offered jobs and brought 30 back to Iowa at a time.
They lived in the Days Inn for a week while Tyson employees helped them find housing, get identification cards and open bank accounts. By the weekend, they'd move into their apartments and report to work Monday.
The refugees needed a paycheck – and fast. Cuts in federal benefits for refugees mean there is little safety net in the way of food, medical or housing assistance. Tyson pays workers at least $13 per hour and provides health insurance.
"They can make more in one week at Tyson Fresh Meats than they would make in one year back home," Rustad said.
In Columbus Junction, Mickelson said, the first five Burmese workers were hired as part of a recruitment effort in Illinois and later encouraged friends and relatives to apply. Burmese started arriving from Indiana, Texas, Florida and other states where they say jobs were harder to come by.
"The Tyson company is very good. That's why we are here," said Ngun Za Bik, 33, who borrowed from a friend to open the Chin grocery store in a vacant pizza place two years ago.
Bik arrived in Indianapolis in 2008 after living in the Malaysian jungle for 14 years. He struggled to make a living, working part-time at a warehouse. He relocated to Columbus Junction, where his brother was already working at Tyson, to open the store.
He sells on credit, keeping notebooks showing how much customers owe him. They pay when they get their Tyson paychecks on Fridays or Saturdays.
City officials say some of the first arrivals abused alcohol, which had previously not been as cheap or available to them. Public urination and intoxication and drunken driving were common. But the police chief and other officials warned community leaders about their expectations, and as more women and children arrived, the problems have dissipated.
Two refugees have committed suicide and a third was found drowned in a river near the Tyson plant, said police Chief Donnie Orr. A shortage of mental health and substance abuse treatment is a problem, Ortiz said.
But refugees and city leaders agree the biggest challenge now is finding housing for the newcomers. City officials say there are hardly any available rental apartments, which go for about $450 a month for three bedrooms.
Some extended families cram into small, unclean apartments and live a "barracks-style lifestyle," said city attorney Tim Wink, who owns three downtown buildings and rents apartments to two Chin families. The city is worried about safety and sanitation issues, including fire risks, and is drawing up its first-ever rental housing code.
Wink said the newcomers were "not a whole lot different" than their Hispanic and Latino predecessors.
"They want the drain to work. They want the water to work," he said. "They don't want bugs. They have the same concerns that everybody else has. It's not much different. They have a language issue, and that's going to take some time."
They've had some success. The community recently celebrated the swearing in of its first U.S. citizen. One or two families have been able to buy houses. And this month, three Chin students are expected to become the first to graduate from high school.
Tial Nawn, 27, arrived in Columbus Junction in July 2012 from a refugee camp in Malaysia to rejoin her husband, a pastor who leads the Iowa Chin Baptist Church. On a recent evening, Nawn joined others in a high school classroom for ESL class, where they practiced verbs and sentences.
"Students!" Nawn called out, when the teacher asked the class to finish a sentence: "We are …"
Nawn said she hopes to learn English in the next year so she can work and make more friends. She is already planning to move to Iowa City, 40 miles away, where she hopes to buy a house, have children and find a job.
"Everybody is so nice here," she said. "But the only work is at Tyson."

I'm so grouchy at jens fehring gallery
I'm so grouchy
New sculptures by Niklas Klotz
05 March – 17 April 2010
Opening: 04 March 2010, 19 h
Introduction by Prof. Dr. Achim Preiß
gutzkowstrasse 57
http://www.jensfehring.com
On 04.03.2010, jens fehring gallery will be opening an exhibition entitled i'm so grouchy featuring works by sculptor Niklas Klotz (born in 1968), a native of Dresden, Germany. The exhibition will open at 7:00 p.m. with an introduction by Prof. Dr. Achim Preiß from Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.
In the not too distant future, it will only be possible to experience large chunks of our culture digitally. By contrast, Niklas Klotz takes the totally opposite approach. He designs digital humans on the computer only to then realise the matrices in traditional materials, such as marble and wood, although sometimes he also chooses high-tech solutions, such as 3-D aluminium prints. Socalled avatars (digital human personifications on the internet) are transformed into tangible contours fashioned from marble (coloured with wax and pigment), wood and glass eyes. Despite being given marked individual features, such as wrinkles, stubble and scars, the sculptures still seem essentially artificial although it is not possible to clearly assign the origins of these characteristics.
The starting point for Niklas Klotz's works was the re-materialisation of the 'digital' imprint of a human being. Together with the Institute for Production Technology at Dresden University, he took the data of the first person ever to be dissected into nearly 2000 layers – each just a few millimetres thick – and completely digitalized, made an aluminium cast of the same and brought it back to materiality. The dichotomy separating artificially generated content from the material presence of the same has been the focus of Klotz's interest ever since.
The current award-winning project to redesign the Julius Otto memorial in Dresden is a good example of the concept and method adopted by the artist. He designed a life-sized 3-D aluminium, low resolution print of a choir boy to enhance the existing monument, which was erected in the 19th century. In doing so, he embedded his own work straight into an art historical context, challenging the observer to perform a direct comparison.
The exhibition will be open for viewing from 05.03.2010 – 17.04.2010 at jens fehring gallery in Frankfurt/Sachsenhausen, Germany
opening hours: tue – fri 14 – 19 h, sat 11 – 16 h

Spartans grind out win over gritty Timberwolves
by admin|Published September 10, 2018
The Trinity Western Spartans had to work for it, but two late goals against a gritty UNBC Timberwolves gave the Spartans a 2-1 victory on Saturday, September 8th in Prince George, BC.
The strategy to sit in, absorb pressure, and grind out a result was effective for seventy minutes for TWolves coach Steve Simonson and his team, but TWU found a way to get on the board and complete the roadtrip with a victory.
Much of the first half of play saw UNBC protecting the box, and effectively clear the ball out of harm's way. The Spartans did manage some opportunities, but Timberwolves keeper Rob Goodey was up to the challenge, closing the door.
"I would prefer a game where I don't make a single save, but as a goalkeeper you do everything you can," said Goodey. "It wasn't just me. Everyone in front of me was blocking every shot they could."
It was the home side that struck first, when fifth-year Conrad Rowlands buried a gorgeous header of a corner kick from Francesco Bartolillo. At halftime, the Spartans were outshooting the TWolves 7-1, but Simonson and his side were satisfied with the resolve and commitment of the UNBC defense.
"They are relentless," said Spartan midfielder Caleb Johnson postgame. "They just kept coming, no matter what the score was. They have a lot of heart."
The second half was more of the same through the first twenty minutes. The Spartans controlled much of the possession and had a number of chances, but Goodey was up to the task.
At the 67 minute mark, the visitors got the break they were seeking. A set play off a corner kick found the head of Matthew Roxburgh who beat a stretched-out Goodey to knot the game at one apiece.
"Their movement off the ball is unlike most teams in the country. They are a very good team," said Goodey. "They were patient, didn't get frustrated, and that is how they eventually broke us down."
Just two minutes later, after a hand ball violation was called in the Timberwolves box, Caleb Johnson was awarded a penalty kick. He patiently put the ball just inside the right post, giving the Spartans their first lead of the match. It was the third penalty kick Goodey faced in as many games to open the season.
The TWolves tried to generate offense over the final 20 minutes of the contest, and did create a number of scrambles in the TWU end, but to no avail.
Despite Goodey's ten saves, the Timberwolves suffer their first loss of the season, moving to 0-1-2 on the year, while the Spartans improve to 2-1-2.
"This is a huge turning point in our season," said Johnson. "We wanted more points in our first three games, but the two goals in the second half should be a big turning point for our season."
"We can't expect every little thing to go our way," said Goodey. "We have to do everything we can. We are frustrated to not get the win, but every game is a learning opportunity. We lost today, but we come back next week and learn from it."

If there's one thing that unites almost all science fiction fans, it's the enthusiasm with which we challenge, debate and redefine its boundaries, and those of its fecund subspecies. So I expect there'll be a fair few of you interested to see that Ian Sales has attempted to redefine that most contentious and ill-defined subgenre, "hard" science fiction… and a few more (or perhaps the same few) who'll be interested to know he's putting his money (or at least a lot of effort) where his mouth is, and editing an anthology to demonstrate that definition.
Science fiction often has to sidestep such "hard rules" in order to tell a story. The aforementioned faster-than-light travel is a good example. The laws of physics are quite clear that the speed of light cannot be exceeded. There are theoretical ways around this, but most are either impossible or unlikely – Alcubierre's drive, for example, would require more energy than is available in the entire universe.
So perhaps we should consider sf which stays within the boundaries of these hard limits as hard science fiction. Any fiction which requires authorial invention to circumvent these limits would thus be "soft" sf – or whatever other sub-genre its characteristics identify it as, such as space opera.
Just a quick note to congratulate tireless Futurismic columnist Brenda Cooper, whose short story "The Hebras And The Demons And The Damned"appears in the TOC of Hartwell and Cramer's 16th Year's Best SF anthology… alongside some other very fine authors, I might add.
Is this your day to join the TOC?
For Genevieve Valentine, it certainly is! Few things make this particular publisher happier than seeing the authors he's published getting published elsewhere, and so it's lovely to see Genevieve Valentine's Futurismic dystopia "Is This Your Day To Join The Revolution?" nestling in the TOC of the insanely prolific John Joseph Adams' latest anthology, Brave New Worlds… among some very notable names indeed, I might add*.

I like a good joke but sometime people playing them on others can make them jump back, fall down, crack their head. There is no ending to things that can happen. The question is, is she cool with a good prank? if she is a worry wart or can not handle a good joke or prank, then why do it?

Is there any fee that I need to pay in order to use this room placement service?
No, on this platform you can search for an accommodation and contact the landlords completely free of charge. This webpage is from the Hochschule Bremen and exclusively accessible by our incoming students.
When should I start searching for an accommodation?
We recommend to start searching for an accommodation right away after receiving your log in details for intorooms because rooms are always in demand. To be sure to get an accommodation on time you should contact several landlords at once.
Does submitting a room enquiry to the landlord already count as a firm booking?
No. The process for booking a room is the following: You are searching for a room on intorooms. Once you find a fitting offer, then you can directly contact the landlord via a contact form. The contact form is on the right site of the room offer.
Having personal contact with the landlord is a huge advantage because you get to know each other better and you would be able to ask all the questions you have about your new place to stay.
What is a deposit (German: Kaution) ?
This is a security payment to the landlord that you get back at the end of the renting period in case there are no major damages. Any severe damages will be paid out of this deposit.
Normally the deposit is one or two monthly rents, which you would have to pay in advance (before arriving) or upon arrival.
How do I receive the exact address of the room?
For privacy and safety reasons we do not display the exact street number of the room, but you can see the street and district. When you contact the landlords via the contact form and you firmly book the accommodation, the landlordswill inform you about the exact address and how to reach it. Sometimes they even pick you up at the main train station or the airport.
What can I do in case I do not like the room or if I want to move after my arrival in Bremen and I already signed a renting contract?
In general, you are signing a renting contract for a limited period of time. In Germany, these types of contracts cannot be cancelled once entered into force. In the individual case it also depends on the landlords if they are willing to let you go and maybe loose the rent for the whole semester. In this case the landlords could also keep your deposit. Please, contact the international office in those cases.
What does the renting fee include?
The indicated renting fee includes all standard costs, such as electricity, water, heating and garbage collection. Any additional fees are clearly indicated in the renting contract.
Please, read the announcement properly, there you would be able to find all the necessary information about the room.
Can I receive overnight guests in my room?
Those questions should be clarified with the landlord in advance. Some landlords allow to have overnight guests for an additional fee per night or others might let them stay for free as long as the guest does not stay for a long period of time.
Why do renting fees differ so much between comparable rooms?
The renting fee depends on the district where the accommodation is located in Bremen, on the equipment of the room, if you can use a bathroom or kitchen alone and have an own entrance or share everything with the landlords.
Does the renting fee include any meals prepared by the landlord?
The renting fee does not include any food or catering prepared by the landlord. You either have to prepare food on your own, eat in the cafeteria or in restaurants and bars. In individual cases you should talk with your potential landlord about the opportunities of cooking together or be catered.
Will be there any cleaning service included in the renting fee?
There is no cleaning service included in any renting fee. You should clean your and all the other rooms you would use on your own regularly. Please notice that not every accommodation has the opportunity of using a washing machine. In those cases you can find many launderettes in Bremen.
Are there any special conditions for living in a German household?
Please notice that in Germany the trash has to be separated in three categories (Paper, Plastic, Residual waste) which is very important for the sustainability.
Some landladies and landlords are animal-loving and have pets (dog, cat, cavy, rabbit, etc.).
Please clarify in advance if the landlords have pets, if you do not like animals or have any allergic reaction.
A renting contract is legally binding and must be taken seriously with all the named terms and conditions.
What should I consider when downloading movies or music online in Germany?
Please note that streaming or downloading movies, series or music is against the law in Germany. Therefore, illegal downloading of movies or music is a crime in Germany and will have serious legal consequences for you!
For any further questions please contact the International Office at Hochschule Bremen.
