The WD My Passport SSD marks the brand's first foray into portable SSD storage. Building off of the extensive My Passport line, the SSD variant is available in 256GB, 512GB and 1TB capacities and promises to give speeds up to 515MB/s using the USB Type-C port. For those without USB-C, WD includes a USB 3 adaptor. As usual WD includes bundled software to give the drive a little more value, in this case that includes backup software and drive health monitoring. The My Passport SSD can also be protected with built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption and the drive includes a three year warranty.
WD has put together a good treatment for the My Passport SSD. The unit is Zippo-esque in it's size and will easily disappear into a pocket. Thankfully shrinking SSD footprints have given vendors more flexibility in design, whereas in the past, portables have more or less been enclosures wrapped around a traditional 2.5" SSD. In this case WD opted for a two-tone color palette with a silver ridged lower half and matte black top.
While most will use the USB-C interface, WD does include a USB 3 dongle-style adaptor for legacy port support.
In our first benchmark, we will look at transfer speeds using a USB 3.0 connection on a generation -1 MacBook Pro. Here, we leveraged the BlackMagic disk speed test, which is a Mac-specific tool mainly used to see how well it works with high quality video. In this scenario, the SSD showed read and write throughput of 387MB/s and 294MB/s, respectively, as shown below. The Samsung hit 430MB/s and 405MB/s and the SanDisk posted 431MB/s and 408MB/s.
Switching over to random 4k transfers, the My Passport SSD had a write performance of 6,623 IOPS and a read performance of 5,496 IOPS.
While we didn't hit the WD posted performance of the My Passport SSD, we did see aggregate performance that puts the drive in a very favorable position at the head of the class. As professionals and consumers do more on the go, the portable SSD segment is going to rapidly grow in importance to vendors that deal in flash. WD is well positioned then with this effort not just in terms of performance, but in other elements like the software package for PCs they include and a design that is appealing. The only issue out of the gate is around pricing. Currently a Best Buy exclusive, the drives run $99.99, $199.99 and $399.99 respectively for the 256GB, 512GB and 1TB capacities. That puts them on price parity with SanDisk (a WD company) and Samsung at the lower capacity, but both competing drives are significantly less expensive as you move up the scale. Also, Samsung offers a 2TB version and SanDisk offers a smaller 120GB option. WD is nothing if not mainstream though, the three offered capacities will address the needs of most of the market and after the Best Buy exclusivity ends, they should be in a position to be price competitive. Either way it's a well-executed drive that should find its way into many workspaces.


According to ESPN, which cited unidentified sources, the Seattle quarterback is sticking to his April 15 deadline of getting a new deal done with the team. Wilson was pictured in one photo alongside defensive tackle Jarran Reed (who is also entering the final year of his contract), the Seahawks at least answering one question on the day, even if many more remained.
Wilson has given the Seahawks a deadline of midnight tonight to ink a long term deal, otherwise he will play out his current contract and force Seattle into the franchise tag game that eventually got Kirk Cousins onto the open market. That's the deadline he set for the organization to settle on a long-term contract extension.
It makes Wilson the NFL's highest-paid player. Others have stated that he wants percentages of future National Football League salary cap increases that could up his salary during an extension.
Things aren't great in Seattle, where Russell Wilson isn't happy with his contract. But if/when April 15 without a long-term deal between the Seahawks and Wilson, the question of whether would take less from a different team becomes highly relevant to whether the Seahawks could find a trade partner, if that's the route the team chooses to take instead of paying him unprecedented franchise-tag money on a year-to-year basis. There is also a contingent of fans that don't want him to receive a salary close to $35 million per year. Meeting his demands might get Wilson and his agent back to the table after the deadline.


Steve Palmer formed the Charleston-based hospitality group The Indigo Road in 2009 when he began working with the celebrated Oak Steakhouse. He soon went on to open O-Ku, Cocktail Club, The Macintosh, The Oak Table (Columbia, SC) and Indaco (in that order).
A leader in the hospitality community, Palmer together with Chef Jeremiah Bacon, led the charge to forge a partnership with Share our Strength to create and host an annual fundraiser in Charleston. For their inaugural year, the fundraising event raised over $60,000 to benefit the national charity.

Elected to Scottish Division Two 1912. Membership suspended 1915.
Founder member of the re-formed Scottish Division Two 1921.
Registered as "scarlet and white"
The genteel county town of Perth is a far cry from the grim industrial communities of central Scotland where association football first took hold. Nevertheless, in 1884 members of a local cricket club decided to play football during the winter months. The cricket club's colours were black and white and it is assumed the team started out wearing their cricket whites and club ties. The following year they formally constituted St Johnstone FC, derived from Perth's colloquial name of "St John's Toun," registering their colours with the Scottish FA as maroon and white. A piece of land was leased and became known as the Recreation Ground, the club's base until 1924 when they built Muirton Park, their home for the next 65 years.
In 1891, the Saints joined the Northern League where they remained for three seasons. Over the next 20 years they had spells in the old Central League and Central Combination as well until 1912 when they were elected to Scottish Division Two when that division was expanded. In 1915 the Second Division was suspended and two regional competitions were set up. St Johnstone, however, suspended operations until 1919 when they joined the Eastern League. The following season St Johnstone joined the rebel Central League, a competition whose rules allowed members to pay higher wages than those available in the Scottish Football League. A number of top players defected to the rebel clubs who proved so successful that in 1921, it was incorporated into the SFL as the new Second Division.
In 1924, St Johnstone were promoted to the First Division where they played until the outbreak of war in 1939, (apart from a spell back in the Second Division 1930-32) generally finishing respectably in the top half of the table. A crest was worn in the promotion winning 1923-24 season but we have not been able to establish the details.
When the Scottish Football League was restarted in 1946 it was decided to restructure rather than simply take up where things were in 1939. St Johnstone, despite having finished eighth in Division One, were placed in the new Division "B." It was not until 1960 that they won promotion, this time as champions of Division Two, their first senior honour. They lasted only two seasons but in 1963 they bounced back, once again as champions. For the next 12 years they managed to hold on to their place in the top flight. Their best spell was, arguably, under Willie Ormond when the team reached the Scottish League Cup Final for the first time in its history in 1969 followed by a third place in the Scottish Football League thereby securing a place in European competition for the first time. Ormond's men performed with distinction, overcoming quality opposition from West Germany and Hungary before succumbing to Yugoslavian opposition.
The formation of the Premier Division in 1975 proved their undoing. Out of their depth in the more competitive environment the Saints were relegated in 1976 having won only three games, 21 points adrift.
In 1980 team wore a circular crest with a lamb and flag as its centrepiece.
In 1983 the Saints won the First Division title (now the second tier) but the next two seasons brought them close to bankruptcy and they plunged down the league to find themselves in Division Two (third tier) in 1985. With attendances slumped to fewer than 1,000 and Muirton Park crumbling, the board invited local business man Geoff Brown to step in as chairman. A share issue raised £150,000, sufficient to secure the club for the immediate future and in 1986 Brown bought Muirton Park for retail development. Thanks to the donation of land from local farmer, Bruce McDiarmid, a brand new 10,000 all-seated stadium was built in August 1989 and named McDiarmid Park.
From the beginning of the 1989-90 season, a new club crest was introduced. the lamb and flag remained at the centre but was now mounted against a two-headed eagle, which comes from the coat of arms of the Perth & Kinross District Council's coat of arms. At various times this was stitched directly onto the shirt or mounted on a shield.
By 1990, St Johnstone were back in the Scottish First Division (second tier) and in 1997 they stormed to the divisional championship, 20 points clear. They more than held their own in the Premier Division/Premier League, reaching the semi-final of the Scottish Cup, the final of the League Cup and finishing in third place in 1999. As a result they qualified for the UEFA Cup for the second time. Although the club were relegated in 2002, they remained a strong contender for a return to the top flight and in May 2009, this ambition was achieved just in time for their 125th anniversary.
For the 2009-2010 season a special, commemorative crest was introduced and the following season a revised version of the traditional badge was introduced.
Between 2012 and 2017 The Saints qualified for the Europa League five times although they failed to reach the group stage and in May 2014 they beat Tayside rivals Dundee United 2-0 at Celtic Park to win the Scottish Cup for the first time in their history.
The circular badge was replaced in 2018 with an updated version of the 1989 crest.
Crests are the property of St Johnstone FC.

```

### Usage
To use it, you'll first need a reveal.js presentation. The easiest way to get one is cloning
the original repo.

```
git clone https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/
```

Next, you'll need a template. The easiest way of getting one is using the one I made.
```
cd reveal.js
wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/froozen/1ce43a536abbe83534f3/raw/ed990d20d459e9ee53bd3c3f178f0d3d093e4fbe/template.html
```

Now, you can start creating your slides:
```markdown
Example presentation
====================

------

This is a list:
* Eggs
* Ham
* Milk
```

The slides are seperated by horizontal rules.

The last thing you'll have to do is running `landrover`:
```
landrover slides.md presentation
```

The first argument is the path to your markdown slides, the second one the path to the reveal.js
presentation directory.

U-Turn's Shraddha Srinath to become a heroine in the Tamil Film Industry
By admin	 Last updated Jan 25, 2022 0
U-Turn, the Kannada film which has taken the industry by storm gives a very interesting gift to the Tamil film Industry in the form of the talented and pretty heroine Shraddha Srinath. Get more information on mr bet app.
Shraddha, who is the daughter of an Army officer, is all set to make her debut as a heroine in a Tamil film starring Nivin Pauly and directed by Gautham Ramachandran, a former associate of Mysskin.
The heroines who are paired opposite Nivin have all marked a place for themselves in the film industry.
Equipped with ravishing looks and a theater background, Shraddha is also all set to repeat the magic.
"I come from an Army background. My father, a senior Army officer, had to travel all over the country so as a family we also made homes in towns spanning the country.
Experiencing such a variety of cultures and growing up around such a diverse group of people has shaped the type of person that I am.
I went on to study law and worked as a professional lawyer while simultaneously pursing my passion of being an actress in the theater circuit of Bangalore.
Since transitioning from law to acting full-time, I have experienced yet another culture and one that I have fallen in love with.
I hope to become an actor who is seen as more than just a pretty face, and I have been lucky to get roles that feature strong female characters that can really push me to becoming a better actor.
The life I have lived so far combined with my theater background and my love for acting really helped me land my dream role in U-Turn, and has subsequently helped me sail through the rigorous rounds of auditions that brings me to this point, as the heroine of the yet-to-be-titled Tamil Film directed by debutant director Gautham.
I hope I can make a small contribution in my own way to the colossus that is Tamil Cinema."

I know it's a holiday for a lot of people, but this is a great blog to start your week with. It'll invigorate your spirit and inspire you. It's a quick, easy-to-read bit of positiveness.
It's not only a holiday in Canada, but this is the week a lot of my readers are putting their kids into school, so this is when readership dips for a bit, making it a good time for me to take a week off for the first time since I started this blog.
This week I'll be presenting some awesome posts that were written back when the blog was new and very few people knew about it. So it's highly unlikely you've read any of these, and even if you had you'd have changed enough as a person since then that the material would appear entirely different.

20% of the value of the house or the purchase price, whichever is lower.
If you can afford this down payment, you are not required by law to take on mortgage insurance. This is because 20% is deemed enough equity that you are less likely to walk away from and default on a loan.
This means that it is best if you save up for a down payment on your new house. The waiting time you have while waiting for you to reach the required amount would be well worth the savings you will have since you can avoid paying mortgage insurance premiums for your home loan.
Mortgage insurance gives you the privilege of buying a house at less than 20% down payment. With it, you can even buy a house for as little as 4% down payment!
But, even if you provide less than 20% in down payments, you can still try to do away with the mortgage insurance payments. You can try to negotiate with your bank to have it waived. The bank may just agree with this, especially if you have a good credit rating. But of course, it's still up to the bank to decide about this.
> How big of a down payment do you have to give to avoid paying mortgage insurance?


Putnam's search led him to a research study titled Trust and Mistrust of Online Health Sites. The aim of the study was to determine whether different design elements and content factors influenced trust among users visiting health websites.
Web design might be most important, but content is still vital. When those same participants were asked to provide reasons for why the trusted particular websites, content played a role in 83 percent of the answers. Participants liked sites that were informative, relevant, fresh, clear, and unbiased. They specifically enjoyed when sites gave age-specific information and provided answers for frequently asked questions.
Both content and web design are incredibly important, and furthermore, they go hand-in-hand. Without quality design, your visitors likely won't take the time to read the content you've invested in. According to Darryl Stevens, CEO at digiTech, a web design and internet marketing firm in Austin, Texas, "Web design must be viewed through the lens of your entire business, or it will fall flat." And while your site design should satisfy human eyes, it also impacts other areas of your business – specifically SEO, branding, and conversion rates.
One of the most recent trends is parallax design, or the design that features a single page that seems to go on forever. Users like it because they can continuously scroll through content, while website owners prefer it because it keeps users engaged. Don't count on the search engines to be parallax fans, however. By removing the traditional website structure that search engines use to crawl, you're raising obvious alarm bells. Additionally, you're spreading out an entire website's worth of keywords over a single URL. The parallax design may excite visitors today, but it could have negative consequences in the future.
On the opposite end of the spectrum you have responsive web design. With the future of internet searches trending in the mobile direction, the search engines are rewarding sites that invest in responsive web design. Not only does it reduce the risks of running two websites – which makes you susceptible to duplicate content – but it's proven to lower bounce rates.
These are just a couple examples of how web design directly interacts with SEO, but there are dozens of other factors to keep in mind. From the amount of Flash you use to the structure of your HTML, every design feature has the potential to affect your search rankings.
There is an important distinction to be made when looking at branding in terms of web design. Your website's design is not your brand, but it's one of the brand elements that helps you build trust with your audience.
Others in the industry would agree with Spool, as consumers are obviously drawn towards brands they trust. They are more likely to buy when they correlate a product with a high brand strength. From a web design perspective, it's quite clear that the design elements you choice will directly affect your overall branding strategy and market position.
Navigation. It's easy to understand how navigation and accessibility relate to conversion rates. Websites that present challenges to visitors will likely lose their interest, while intuitive site structure encourages users to continue browsing.
Wording. According to an infographic by ZippyCart.com, the wording you use in calls-to-action have a direct impact on conversion rates. Specifically, including the word 'free' when asking people to sign up or download something has been shown to increase conversions by as much as 4.2 percent.
Color. You could study color and perception for years, but the most important takeaway is that color matters. Research suggests big, red, and bold is good for headlines, while navy helps develop a feeling of trust when used in a call-to-action button.
In conclusion, it's important that you understand the full impact of web design. It isn't simply a preference or minor choice. From SEO and branding to conversion rates and more, your site's web design plays a major role in how your brand is perceived by consumers everywhere.

Game On - Sea of Thieves & Civilization VI
NeighbourhoodCategoryBlogArticlesUsers cancel
This year continues to look exciting for the gaming community, with a number of big titles coming out. Let's take a look at what's new in the PC gaming world, and meet the UBC eSports team.
Sea of Thieves is the highly anticipated new open world game from Rare and Microsoft. This pirate-themed action adventure is a shared world game that can be played solo or with friends. You'll embark on quests, collect loot, and interact with hundreds of other players as you sail the open seas in search of treasure.
As a huge Pirates of The Caribbean fan, this game is right up my alley. These types of open world RPG games are perfect for any playing style. Getting a crew of your friends together to pillage and plunder, or simply sailing and exploring on your own...the possibilities are endless. These games are great in that you'll experience something new every time you jump in. Talk about replayability! Take a look at this trailer and get ready to walk the plank!
Sea of Thieves is currently in closed beta and releases officially on March 20th for both the Xbox One and Microsoft Windows. Let me know if you plan on picking up this title, or what other game you're anxiously waiting for in the comments.
Steam / PC Gaming
The wildly popular Sid Meier's Civilization series is still a major player in the strategy game sector of computer gaming.
Last month the latest edition, Civilization VI, got a new DLC update with 'Rise and Fall' addition becoming available for download.
Adding nine new leaders, eight civilizations to the mix and a plethora of new gameplay additions, the hope was to add a more in-depth experience for gamers. This downloadable content pack was met with mixed reviews. Some pointing to the new gameplay additions as providing some interesting variance to the game sequence but lacking any real adjustment to the overall experience. The add-on gives some new ideas but ultimately feels like just a top-up on an older series that isn't really doing anything new.
The addition of Great Ages was something that stood out to me as giving the game a different feel. It makes you stay on your toes a bit more.
Which in lies the problem with the Civilization series. Everyone knows what they are getting with a new iteration and they can only stray so much from the basic makeup. An older series like Total War has been able to add a different element with the Warhammer Fantasy series, which gave it an interesting and fresh take on an existing format. It's hard to see where Civilization can go through such a pivot.
UBC eSports Team
The exciting world of eSports (competitive gaming) is growing every year, and 2018 looks to be the biggest yet with tournaments around the world being held for prize pools worth millions of dollars. TELUS is proud to be an official sponsor of the UBC eSports Association. I'll be highlighting some of their upcoming events and announcements in this section moving forward.

I participated in the closed and open beta phases of Sea of Thieves. I have had the game pre-ordered through Amazon last November. I have enjoyed every moment playing so far and my XBOX One X is full of various screenshots. Definitely looking forward to playing it on Tuesday until FarCry 5 comes out.

It's not often we get the opportunity to let our imaginations run wild and ditch the planning regulations, so when we were invited to submit a Bat Box design for Memorial Park Fleetwood we went for it! The competition organisers wanted to provide valuable nesting space for wildlife in the area, but they wanted something a bit grander than an average nesting box. The competition was open to the general public but we entered the category for Architects and Design Professionals.
The design for Bat Tram was inspired by Fleetwood's trams and the Batmobile. We thought it was a fun and quirky idea that would stand the test of time and reflect both the character of the area and bat conservation.
We won! Competition judges LeftCoast, Wyre Council and designer Tim Denton loved the originality and cleverness of the design. The finished Bat Tram box was built by Tim and is now installed as a permanent feature in Memorial Park Fleetwood.

Per Fly Plejdrup (Skive, 14 de enero de 1960) es un director de cine danés. Ha realizado múltiples películas y programas de televisión transmitidos por la televisión danesa.

Biografía
Fly se graduó en la Escuela Nacional de Cine de Dinamarca en 1993. Debutó en 2000 con su ópera prima El banco (Bænken), que cuenta la historia de Kaj, un hombre cuya vida está marcada por el alcoholismo. Este film es la primera parte de la trilogía danesa, que retrata situaciones de personajes de la las diferentes clases sociales de Dinamarca en orden ascendente. Esta trilogía fue continuada por La herencia (Arven) (2005), donde se dibuja la clase alta, y Homicidio (Drabet) (2005), retrato de la clase media. La película de animación de stop-motion Prop og Berta (Prop and Berta, 2001) seguida por Bænken, pero no era parte de la trilogía

En 2007 rodó una serie titulada "Forestillinger", emitida por la televisión danesa Danmarks Radio. Gira en el mismo período de tiempo desde la perspectiva de seis personas diferentes, cuyas situaciones de vida se superponen y se entrelazan. El significado de la palabra "Forestillinger" es ambiguo en el idioma danés y puede referirse a "concepciones" o (como en "concepciones sobre uno mismo") así como "obras de teatro" o "espectáculos" en el sentido teatral.

Con la excepción de  Prop og Berta , la naturaleza de la filmografía de Per Fly se centra en la vida de la gente común, en la línea del realismo social. Sus películas exploran las condiciones en las que viven los personajes e intentan validar o explicar las decisiones que toman a través de una descripción psicológica y social detallada de los personajes involucrados.

Park Sun-ho (born May 9, 1993) is a South Korean actor, singer, and model. Park made his acting debut in the MBC television series Golden Rainbow in 2014. He also debuted as a singer in 2014 with the song "After Love" (Ballad Ver.) for the 2014 television series Love Cells.

Most recently, Park is known for being a contestant on the Mnet boy group survival program Produce X 101 (2019) and as Lee Gwang-cheol in the OCN television series Rugal (2020).

Career

2008 - 2014: Early Music Aspirations
Park initially wanted to debut as a Korean idol, and successfully passed the audition at Starship Entertainment in 2008 to become a trainee. He trained at the agency for six years before leaving the company in early 2014 after having failed to debut with both Boyfriend in 2011 and later Monsta X in 2015. During his time at Starship, he appeared in both Sistar19's "Ma Boy" and Sistar's "Give It to Me" music videos in 2011 and 2013, respectively.

2014 - 2018: Career Change to Acting & Debut as a Singer
After leaving Starship, Park decided to pursue an acting career. After signing with SidusHQ in mid 2014, Park made his acting debut in the drama Golden Rainbow, playing the role of Kim Young-won /
Michinski Forever in the 34th episode of the series.

A rising new actor, he was later cast in major roles in Love Cells (2014), Start Again (2016) and I'm Sorry, But I Love You (2016).

Park also made his debut as a singer in 2014 with the song "After Love" (Ballad Ver.), which was included in the second soundtrack album for Love Cells.

He received an offer to participate on the second season of Produce 101 in 2017, but was unable to accept due filming another project at the time.

2019 - present: Produce X 101, Growing Popularity, and Military Service

Park released the digital single "Still (겨울을 걷다)" in February 2019, and also contributed to the song's lyrics and music.

In March 2019, Park was revealed to be a trainee for Produce X 101. During the show's first episode on May 3, 2019, he revealed that he joined the show amidst a growing successful acting career due to wanting to try pursuing an idol career once more. He would go on to finish in 25th place with 814,160+ votes.

Upon conclusion of his time on Produce X 101, Park planned to hold a fanmeeting, titled "Stand By Me" on August 17, 2019. However, the fanmeeting would be postponed for undisclosed reasons.

In October 2019, Park was cast in the role of Lee Gwang-cheol for the 2020 OCN drama Rugal. The show was distributed internationally by Netflix.

In December 2022, Park signed with Namoo Actors.

Personal life

Military service
On August 6, 2020, it was announced that Park began his military service in the Ministry of National Defense on August 10, 2020. He is expected to serve for two years as a member of the honor guard. He was discharged on February 9, 2022.

Forming Partnerships to Bridge Research and Practice
by Dan Gallagher and Bill Penuel on October 12,2017
Educators, researchers, and policy makers share a prevalent desire for evidence-based programs in education, and relatively long-standing policies—continuing with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA)—have called for these research-based interventions. However, a big divide exists between almost all research and practice in education.
In hopes of bridging this divide, there is a lot of buzz these days about research-practice partnerships (RPPs). RPPs are long-term collaborations between researchers and educators that are focused on studying and addressing problems of practice. They are increasingly popular, because everyone recognizes that the complex problems facing education require an "all hands on deck" approach to addressing them. Researchers and educators working together can diagnose those problems effectively, and they can also design, test, and develop evidence for solutions to those problems. Importantly, in a partnership, researchers stick around to help educators address the new problems that arise from implementation of potential solutions.
RPPs can be particularly valuable as states begin full implementation of ESSA this school year. RPPs bring together teams with diverse kinds of expertise, enabling the required evidence-basis in ESSA implementation plans to meet both researchers' standards for rigor and practitioners' need for usefulness and relevance. States are designing novel implementation plans and adapting previously established programs for new contexts, which means that many of these plans will not have an extensive research base to draw on. RPPs conduct the type of design-based implementation research appropriate for developing, adapting, and evaluating evidence-based programs that can be effective in local contexts.
While RPPs are a promising strategy, creating new partnerships is challenging and takes time. Researchers are used to addressing questions that reflect their own interests and those of other researchers. It is risky for educators to commit to the iterative testing of a solution before it is rolled out across a system when stakeholders demand quick action on pressing and persistent problems. Researchers and educators work on different timescales, and so developing a rhythm that is responsive to the speed of practice but also allows for careful research and analysis typically evolves in fits and starts.
Both of us have had experience starting and sustaining successful partnerships from different directions: Bill as a researcher, and Dan as an education leader. Bill has worked closely with Denver Public Schools for more than ten years in a partnership with curriculum leaders in mathematics and science. Their joint work involves curriculum and assessment design, as well as professional development and implementation. Dan has worked closely for several years with multiple external partners, most intensively with the Institute for Science and Mathematics Education at the University of Washington. Their work is similar to the Denver partnership, and we regularly trade stories, tools, and practices across our two partnerships. Here, we synthesize some advice for getting started based on our observations of successful and unsuccessful efforts to form a partnership:
Start with people you know and trust. Once you have your question or focal problem to tackle, think about the researchers and educators in your region that people already know and trust. If you are an education leader, ask colleagues you trust for recommendations about who might be a good research partner, given your school system's concerns. If you are a researcher, ask colleagues who work closely with schools and districts which systems have needs that match your areas of interest and expertise.
Start with an openness to explore and negotiate a working relationship. When one partner approaches the other with a plan already arranged for how they'd like to work with that partner, that person is already off on the wrong foot. Approach one another as if you are on a first date, getting to know each other and trying to figure out if you have some common interests.
Start by identifying what you hope to learn from each other in the partnership. It's important to start with the premise that you both have something to learn from one another, not that you have solutions or resources to give. To figure this out, it's important to get to know each other: What are the big concerns and initiatives of the district? What kinds of expertise does the research partner bring?
Last, start small. Negotiate the focus of a small project first, rather than jumping right into a bigger endeavor. A small project allows you develop a relationship and work out any kinks with less of an investment. When a partnership is working, you can begin to think about planning beyond the current project. Partnerships that are long term and built on trust can be enduring sources of support for education improvement.

Pays you between 57 cents and $120 per used book. How much you get depends on weight, how quickly it is expected to sell and how many copies are already in the company warehouse. College textbooks and technical books, which are more likely to pay top dollar than, say, paperback novels. SIMPLE - THEY PAY FOR SHIPPING.
Forget yard sales and dusty old shops—there's a better way make money off those books that are just getting dusty on your bookshelf, without ever having to leave home.
And you can sell your books by the box-full, in one easy shipment, instead of painstakingly listing each title on Amazon, then shipping to different buyers.
The website Cash4Books.net gives you cash back for your new or used books. Shipping is free and there are no fees to become a member of the website.
You enter the book's ISBN number (usually found on the back cover) and the website will give you a price, or tell you sorry, they're not buying a particular title. You can enter up to five ISBN numbers at a time, streamlining your selling process.
When you're ready to ship, just print the pre-paid label, pack your box of books, and drop it in the mail. The website ships via USPS or FedEx.
After they've received your shipment, Cash4Books will mail you a check.
You can follow all of Marcella's reports from her series "Ways to Make Quick Cash" at cbs8.com/yourmoney.
CBS 2's Dorothy Tucker has the inside scoop on how to make some extra cash without much effort. Looking to make some extra money, Charrise Ouska-Willkommen is holding her annual garage sale. Books are a bargain at 25 cents apiece. But Ouska-Willkommen could make much more with an app called cash4books.
She simply scans the bar code on the book and up pops the price.
"Fifty cents? That's more than I was selling it for," Ouska-Willkommen says.
The extra cash is pure profit because the company pays for shipping.
How about books? Reselling textbooks isn't limited to just college students looking to recoup a few bucks... All you need to do is type in the ISBN number for a quote, print and mail using the label they supply and wait for your check.
Cash4Books.net is another option for selling your books. In addition to paying your shipping fees, they also deposit the money into your PayPal account.
Great cultures come in small packages!
McKenzieBooks.com and Cash4Books.net named #18 in Oregon's 100 Best Companies to Work For (medium size companies).
Oregon Business magazine selected us as a top 100 Oregon employer based on confidential employee surveys and a benefits report.
This recognition is a direct result of employee opinions about how they align with our mission and core values, the day-to-day opportunities for collaboration and innovation, the ways in which the company provides rewards, and the commitment to sustainability.
Small, medium, and large businesses are acknowledged. The rankings were announced March 3, 2011 and full results in each category published in the magazine's March 2011 edition.
#17 - Sell your books. At cash4books.net... you type in an unwanted book's ISBN number to get an offer. If you like what you see, fill out a prepaid mailing label, box the books and send them off. Payment comes by check or as a credit to your PayPal account.
"John and Rebecca have to go on a cash diet. I mean everything, from food to eating out. They have to get rid of the plastic," says money guru Mary Hunt.
She gives tips for generating cash as she tours their house. After seeing their closets, Mary recommends they sell or swap some of their designer clothes, leather jackets, handbags and shoes. She recommends Web sites like Swapstyle.com, Freecycle.org, eBay.com and Craigslist.org... They could also sell used books at Cash4books.net.
SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- If you're looking for ways to make extra money, there may be a good source of income gathering dust in your bookcase.
Alyvia Plummer gets very attached to her books. It started when she was a kid and her grandfather kept giving them as gifts. "He said every book I give you, if you read it, I'll give you $100," said Plummer. That grew into a passion for reading and collecting books -- like the British Harry Potter first editions.
But now as a struggling art student and with no one paying her to read, she can't help looking at her bulging book collection as a potential goldmine, especially when she found the website www.cash4books.net. It offered pretty good money for dusty old books -- up to $15 each. "They took a lot of the books that a used bookstore wouldn't take," said Plummer.
It works like this: you type in the book's ISBN number. The site tells you how much it will pay, you ship it and get a check. Cash4Books even covers shipping costs. 7 On Your Side tried it out and got varying results. A Julia Child autobiography retails for $25, on the site it fetches just 93 cents. The thriller "Language of Bees" retails for $25 and the website offers $5.23.
"One, will I ever read it again, two, does it mean anything to me and three, does it look pretty," said Plummer. Plummer says it's all about cashing in when you need to. The hard thing is letting go of favorites like a novel about Dracula, but she sold a favorite book about old England. "It was like 13 bucks they were going to give me so I had to get rid of it," said Plummer.
Cash4Books has a good Better Business Bureau rating, but there are a few words of caution: It won't pay for books that arrive in poor condition, such as having water damage, or missing pages. There are some books it won't accept at all, like international textbooks. Even if she would part with them, Cash4Books wouldn't buy Plummer's British version of Harry Potter.
But it did want her textbooks. She sold nine in all and got about $50 just when she needed it most. "Groceries I think, it was either groceries or gas," said Plummer.
You may remember from a past column how to get cash for your books at Cash4Books.net. Let's review: Just type in the book's ISBN number (on the back cover or on the copyright page in the front), and see if you can get cash. Complete the transaction online, print out a prepaid mailing label, pack up those books and send them in. In just a few days you'll either receive a check in the mail or a deposit to your PayPal account. Once you've run out of likely candidates from your own shelves, scour garage sales and thrift shops. If you've got an Internet-enabled PDA, you can look up books at Cash4Books.net/mobile as you shop.
Caution: While you might hit the jackpot at a garage or estate sale, keep in mind there are condition requirements, so get familiar with them before you head out.
The Boost: You could easily find that Cash4Books.net is offering $5.25 for a book you can buy for a quarter.
Sell your extra books. I'm a book fiend, a book addict, a book enthusiast. My family has come close to staging interventions for me over my first-edition addiction, but I culled through my collection and made about $200 selling some of them to Cash4Books instead. Cash4Books accepts audiobooks and text books as well as softcovers and hardback tomes, and they even pay shipping -- type in the ISBN (above the barcode) to see if they're buying what you want to sell.

We decided to give it a try, taking a stack of old books we found lying around. Within minutes, we had just over $14. One note of caution: the site won't take every book. We had one paperback in our pile that they were not interested in buying.... A portion of the company's profits are funneled back into classroom projects.
Tired of your old books sitting around the house collecting dust? Why not make some money off of them? The website Cash4books.net will buy your books. You enter your books' ISBN number and the site will give you an estimate of how much it's worth. You ship it. They send a check.
If you've got books in good condition that you no longer want, you may be able to sell them at www.cash4books.net. Here's what you do: type in the book's ISBN numbers, which are typically found on the back cover or on the copyright page. The site will tell you how much it will pay you for that book. If you like what you see, complete the transaction online, then print out a prepaid mailing label. Pack up your books and send them in. You'll get a check in just a few days.
A lot of people have books sitting around the house, gathering dust. If you're not going to read them again why not make some money off them? It's just another way CBS 2's Anne State found to "stretch your dollar."
Take a tour of Kameran Austermann's home and you will find books — here, there and everywhere. It's a problem. "We just don't have a lot of room to keep the books," she said. Kameran's mom told her about a Website called "Cash 4 Books." The site buys used books. Kameran said it's easy: She sits at her computer, enters the code on the back of the books and the Website tells her how much they're worth. "I sold 17 books and I think I got just over $40," she said. Kameran says she doesn't have to pay for shipping. She just prints out a mailing label, boxes up the books and heads to the post office. "It's tough economic times, and I think it's a great way to kind of clean out your closets and recycle your books and put a little money in your pocket," she said.
One of the big advantages of selling your books through Cash4Books.net is that they pay for you to ship the books to them.
You go to their website, type in the ISBN number on the back of the book above the barcode, and the company will quickly let you know if they are buying that book and at what price. You print a packing list, and a mailing label. The company pays for the shipping.
Do you have books in good condition? Go to cash4books.net, type in the books' ISBN numbers (which you'll find on the back cover or on the copyright page in the front of the books), and see if you can get cash for them. Complete the transaction online, print out a prepaid mailing label, pack up those books and send them in. In just a few days you will either receive a check in the mail or a deposit to your PayPal account. You won't pay a cent-not even for postage.

Sometimes, there's just nothing better than a good car show.
You get a chance to see some incredible old cars, some powerful muscle cars, and everything in between.
When you couple that with a fundraiser, you get an event that you MUST attend.
Happening on July 23rd from 11am-4pm at Comanche Trail Church of Christ, 2700 E 34th Amarillo Texas, there will be a car show raising money for Troops 1776 and 4776.
If you'd like to enter your car, it's only $20 to get it registered. Food trucks will be out there and can either register for $20 as well or share a percentage of their proceeds for the five hour event.
Aside from getting to look at some pretty incredible rides, there will be a chance for you to win some cool stuff. You'll be able to purchase raffle tickets on-site for just $5 apiece. Up for grabs in the raffle are a Driver's Edge window tinting package, a Toot'n Totum Superclean Detail package, oil changes from Take 5, gift cards, and a whole lot more!
The boys will also be on-site giving demonstrations on Scouting skills such as knotting and knife safety. They'll also be out there selling drinks in this hot weather.
All the proceeds made from the event will be split between the troops. Those funds will go towards things like merit badges, fuel for the camping trips, and the kids working the event.
If you want to register your car or food truck for the event, it's easy to do. Reach out to Chris Baugh to RSVP at 806-477-9967.

I want to share with you one of my life's turning points, creatively speaking. The early 1970s found me in a very exciting period in my life. For one, I was emerging from the 1960s, had finally found someone who wanted to marry me (and vice versa), was discovering fatherhood, and was committed to making my living as an astrologer, come hell or high water.
Equally important, after a lifetime of looking out at the world, I was also learning to look inward at the mind itself. And the mind, as I was then finding, is a vast storehouse of treasures, perhaps the last great frontier that remains to be explored, at least by we Westerners. The Tibetan Buddhists had planted their flag in the mind centuries before. In the early 1970s I was unearthing some of the hidden treasures of astrology and sharing them with the world.
The Buddhists legends state that astrology entered our world system long ago when Manjushri (the bodhisattva of transcendental wisdom) appeared in Wu-Tai-Shan in China, five-mountains in the form of a die (as in dice). It is said that from the top of Manjushri's head poured the 84,000 astrological dharmas, which were then given to humankind, most eventually hidden in the mind itself. I have written of my visit to Mt. Wu-Tai-Shan before and I post my story at the end of this article for those interested.
Anyway, one of the mind treasures I came across is the complete system of planetary nodes, the intricate crystalline structure of the solar system itself, which it turns out is one of the keys to understanding chakras. I don't want to get too technical, but let's just say that astrology is mostly about nodes, intersection points, where two forces or qualities come together and meet. Astrological points like the Ascendant, Midheaven, house cusps, and so forth are all nodes. Since most astrologers don't consider latitude, aspects also are nodes.
With the help of a friend, mathematician David W. Wilson, I calculated the precise system of planetary nodes for the entire solar system, the exact zodiac positions where the planetary orbits crossed (were inclined), plus the points where they were farthest apart (disinclined). I published all of this in the book "Interface: Planetary Nodes" in 1976, and you can find a link to a free copy of that book below.
I did all of this because I had a mini-revelation about what this system of nodes meant for us. I was in the process of unearthing one of the astrological treasures that had been left for us to find in the mind by Manjushri. The complete system of planetary nodes is a concise map of the essential power points of the planets and the entire solar system, finally the physical signature of the chakras that we hear so much about but know so little of.
These interface points, the planetary nodes, are a key to understanding how the chakras work for each of us in our natal astrology chart, a detailed account of our deeply-embedded likes and dislikes, literally our inclinations and disinclinations. I have had a number of astrologers that I respect tell me that my interpretations of these planetary nodes touches something very deep in them. I also find this to be so.
A few years ago I decided to write out my interpretation and to create a personal report so that anyone who wanted to explore their own chart in terms of these nodal chakras could do so. That report is called "Life Chakras," and here is a very short video about that report which you might enjoy.

Geum radiatum facts for kids
Quick facts for kids
Geum radiatum
Imperiled (NatureServe)
radiatum
Sieversia radiata (Michx.) G.Don
Acomastylis radiata F.Bolle
Parageum radiatum H.Hara
Geum radiatum is a rare species of flowering plant in the rose family known by the common names spreading avens, Appalachian avens, and cliff avens. It is native to the region of the border between Tennessee and North Carolina in the southeastern United States, where there are eleven known populations remaining. The plant was federally listed as an endangered species in 1990.
Geum radiatum is a perennial herb with a horizontal rhizome spreading beneath the soil. From the rhizome, several rosettes of leaves sprout. What may appear to be separate plants are actually all clones belonging to one genetic individual, as the plant reproduces vegetatively. The large leaves are decidedly kidney-shaped. The stems grow 20 centimeters to half a meter (8-20 inches) tall and produces bright yellow flowers in the summer months. This Geum looks very different from other species in its genus that grow in the area. Its closest relative is probably Geum peckii, which does not occur in the same region.
Geum radiatum grows on a few tall mountaintops above 1310 meters (4367 feet) elevation in the southern Appalachians in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina. It sprouts from steep, often vertical cliffs, anchored by its rhizome. Conditions are exposed and sunny, and the soil is acidic and gravelly. Other plants in the habitat include Solidago spithamaea, Kalmia buxifolia, Menziesia pilosa, Rhododendron catawbiense, Heuchera villosa, Micranthes petiolaris, and species of asters, sedges, and grasses. The forests around the cliffs are dominated by red spruce (Picea rubens).
Fifteen known populations exist. Three others have been extirpated; these occurred in areas that were popular recreational sites for hiking, mountain climbing, and other uses. Threats to the remaining populations include erosion, soil compaction from trampling, and development of facilities for recreation, such as trails, ski slopes, parking lots, and bridges. Poaching is also a problem for this species as a mountain wildflower with showy yellow blooms. Pollution, including acid rain, may be a threat. Some of the few remaining populations are small, with fewer than 50 plants, and the number of genetically separate individuals may be smaller. Climate change threatens the long term viability of this species.

Daily Boom 90's Nostalgia: En Vogue - 'Hold On'
"The art of playing games now
Is not the hearts you break
It's bound to good love you make
When it's heart's on fire
Give him love evryday
Remember he needs space
Be patient and he'll give his heart to you
Fighting blind minded thoughts of dispair
Hold on to your love
You gotta hold on"
The late 80's music scene featured several pop girl groups. You had The Bangles, Expose, The Cover Girls, Sweet Sensation... all of them had radio and chart success but there was a formula to it. I don't think that anyone really anticipated the change that was coming when the calendar flipped and a new decade began. The 90's ushered in an era of New Jack Swing, slowjamz and R&B that was just amazing. Groups like TLC, SWV, and Xscape kept women front and center.
En Vogue was a major player at the time. Dawn Robinson, Cindy Herron, Terry Ellis and Maxine Jones teamed up in 1989 and by 1990 they had a bonafide chart hit with "Hold On". It was completely different from everything else that was getting airplay and that's what grabbed my attention immediately. To me, this video and song kind of drew a line in the proverbial sand and from this point on women had to really step up their game in order to compete musically. Check out "Hold On" below. Do you think it was a game changer too?

Bali's Day of Silence shuts airport, clears beaches, streets
BALI, Indonesia — Indonesia's normally bustling Bali has shut down social media, closed the airport and shuttered all shops for a Day of Silence that marks New Year on the predominantly Hindu resort island.
"Nyepi" began at 6 a.m. Saturday, emptying streets and beaches for 24 hours except for special patrols to ensure silence is observed. This year, phone companies agreed for the first time to turn off the mobile internet on the island, home to more than 4 million people.
Aside from no Facebook, Instagram or instant messaging apps, television and radio broadcasts have ceased and Balinese are staying indoors, covering the windows and not even turning on lights, for the day of reflection that is the most sacred in Balinese Hinduism.
"Nyepi is the time for us to wash our hearts and minds of bad thoughts and deeds, plead with God to purify ourselves, human beings and the universe," said Kadek Chantini, a Bali tour guide.
Not everyone was happy with the decision to disrupt internet access, saying it was going too far and an inconvenience for tourists and non-Hindu residents of Bali, but others welcomed it.
"It will certainly provide a quieter atmosphere so we can focus and concentrate on perfecting our meditation and prayers," said Komang Suda, a resident of Denpasar, the Bali provincial capital.
"The decision also really helps us in disciplining our teenagers, who sometimes sneak off to play with their gadgets during Nyepi," he said.
The night before Nyepi is marked by noisy "ogoh-ogoh" processions of giant scary figures representing evil spirits.
