The U.K. Kid: Polly Stenham Tries Her Playwriting Luck in NYC
Penham finally gets to enjoy a clean tea mug.
One day soon, Polly Stenham will relinquish her position as the "It" girl of British theater. And that suits her fine. "I'm really up for it," she says with a grin.
Stenham came to prominence when That Face, her first play, written at just 19, debuted at the Royal Court in 2007, transferred to the West End, and won heaps of prizes, including a £25,000 award for most promising newcomer. Stenham, a moppet-like figure with an overgrown pixie cut and lashings of eyeliner, found herself splashed across the arts pages, earning encomia from normally staid critics. Even the rare detractor, like the Guardian's Lyn Gardner, who felt the play derivative, praised Stenham's wit and talent for comedy.
Now an all-grown-up 23, with another successful play (Tusk Tusk) behind her and numerous commissions before her, Stenham has come to New York to supervise the U.S. debut of That Face, which opens May 18 at Manhattan Theatre Club under Sarah Benson's direction. Seated at a teahouse across the street from MTC's City Center, Stenham seems a jumble of adult and adolescent. She can discuss her writing process with an almost clinical dispassion, yet she possesses a teen's awkwardness, squirming in her seat, avoiding eye contact, trying to unpick the woven mat beneath her cup of Purity tea, a hibiscus and chrysanthemum infusion with a shocking-pink hue.
That Face concerns an acutely unhappy upper-middle-class clan that somewhat resembles Stenham's own upbringing. Mother Martha has a drinking problem, a bipolar disorder, and an unhealthy infatuation with her son, Henry, who has dropped out of school to care for her. Daughter Mia plays a dangerous prank that puts a classmate in the hospital and sends father Hugh winging back from Hong Kong to do damage control on the family he abandoned. Though the milieu is distinctly British, That Face ought to play well on this side of the Atlantic, too. Familial dysfunction doesn't tend to respect national boundaries, and Stenham's clearest antecedents—Edward Albee, Sam Shepard, Tennessee Williams—are American. (Well, you might count Oedipus Rex as an influence, also.)
During the first weeks of rehearsals, Stenham noted some disparities between British and American rehearsal practices. Most significantly: snacks. "There's a whole table with, like, coffee and tea—all different kinds of tea—and Emergen-C and peanut butter," she says, amazed. "I was like, 'You're joking!' At the Royal Court, you've got to go and find a dirty mug under a load of other dirty mugs and wash it, and that's the highlight."
Stenham also feels herself under more pressure here. "In London, especially at the Royal Court, they love it if you fuck up," she says. "If it's bad, they're like, 'Let's put it on another week.' " She doesn't anticipate that same liberality from MTC. And she's also contending with the idea that a single critic, sent from The New York Times, wields most of the power. "There are five reviewers who count in London, and from what I hear, it's only one guy here, and that to me is bizarre," she says. "God, should I send this guy cookies or something?"
When not in rehearsal, Stenham bikes around the Village and works on her third play, another commission for the Royal Court. Speaking of that theater, she notes, cheerfully, that this summer they'll produce a play by an 18-year-old scribe, bringing that end to her tenure as the poster girl for young playwrights. "People are like, 'Do you mind?' I'm like, 'Noooo.' "

1. The citizenship question in Canada.

4. UK roadkill data, badger in the lead. And Oxford weather and climate change data.
5. The new Adam Phillips book Attention Seeking.
4 - It happens when you drive on the wrong side of the road.
I have another contender for UK roadkill:
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1148298496140820480?s=19
Pepperidge Farm
Remember when you pretended to wait for someone to bring up Trump in unrelated threads?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Yeah, I felt peppery today.
Here's Lyman Stone on the citizenship question last year: https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2018/4/5/17202092/census-question-citizenship-immigration-trump-deportation-undercount-latino-hispanic
Logical fallacies on display. Most blatant, Trump is not forcing anyone not to respond.
And, it's not about undercounting Latinos or Hispanics. It's about actually counting illegal invaders and non-citizens, which has many law-enforcement and statutory governmental purposes.
The Obama judge's likely issue is ending the fatal flaw (that a Republican could be elected president) in the Constitution by adding 10 or 20 million more illegal, fraudulent democrat voters.
Citing Dr. Seuss or Emma Lazarus' (Who voted for her?) poem doesn't make it legit.
America is not ruled by a judicial oligarchy. There is no legal or Constitutional (cite chapter and verse) barrier to the co-equal Executive Branch asking a question on a Federal form.
President Trump should "pull" an Andrew Jackson.
Those here dishonestly/illegally likely will decline or lie on census forms. That's not Trump's responsibility.
In addition, everything vox vomits is bull shit.
Did you even read the article before emitting that word salad into the world? The subtitle is "The progressive freakout makes no sense" (but then again, neither does your comment). Stone lays out why it's no big deal to have the question on the census. But I certainly learned one thing: when the comment author is Dick the Butcher, don't bother reading the words that follow.
And here is a little random economic news:
"Breitbart's White House correspondent (@MichelleDiana) is expected to join the White House. She's slated to take a job in the office of the National Economic Council, headed by Larry Kudlow."
Oh cool, Michelle is the kind of gal that retweets this headline:
"Sweden: Female Cops Told to Submit to Islamic State or Be Raped"
Keep it classy, Trump White House.
Dick the Butcheri
The truth is declasse.
It's a funny way to report that a crazy guy was safely arrested, and convicted, for threats to two female officers.
Yeah, but the problem isn't that one crazy guy it's the 100,000 other crazy guys.
That's what Breitbart would like us to think, and thats why they tried to stretch one guy into a scary headline.
You don't have 100,000 guys. You have 1.
Somebody else is going to say that there aren't 100,000 neo-Nazis out there, just one nutjob in Charlottesville.
For every problem, there's one side trying to minimize it and the other side exaggerates.
We can be real about numbers and evidence. Charlottesville had the very dramatic "The Jews will not replace us!" tiki torch parade. That was bad without that one guy (who did worse).
I don't know, maybe there have been bad Sharia law demonstrations somewhere. But actually show them, you know?
Don't imply them with a misleading headline.
This entire debate is idiotic. But sure, numbers:
Swedish ISIS fighters per 100,000 Muslim population is 60. For reference, murder rate in Sweden is 1.14 per 100,000. 810,000 Muslims : 4,860 Swedish ISIS fighters who moved to the IS to wage jihad. No torches. Just murder and rape.
The SPLC estimates 5,000-8,000 KKK members in the US. Which is sure to be wildly inflated. The ADL estimates 3,000 nationwide, which is also most likely inflated.
But sure go with that. That means KKK membership, at 1.15 per 100,000 whites (roughly 4 TOTAL members per a city like SF) is about 52 times less prevalent than ISIS fighter status for Swedish Muslims. And if we can use Econ for a second, the cost to join the KKK is substantially less than guaranteed death or imprisonment, the fate of most ISIS fighters.
I'm not sure what the point of this exercise is, Nordic countries have been an absolute failure at integration for years. That's where the attention needs to be.
I have no problem with those numbers. They all look low.
The nice thing about ISIS fighters is that they actually leave, eh?
"1. The citizenship question in Canada."
Clearly Canada is run by Right wing extremists. {sarcasm}
Professor L. Summers
I can't say I've only seen Canada from my friend Jeffery Epstein's plane!
It started in 1901. Are you telling me the attitudes of people won't be considered old-fashioned in the 21st century? The true test is to put it to vote in today's Canada.
"That same question has been part of Canada's long-form census for over a century without a ripple, although it's not part of the short-form questionnaire."
LONG FORM, it used to be in the LONG FORM in the US as well. In the 2010 Census, the LONG FORM was replaced by the ACS, and the citizen question is still included in the ACS to this day.
The actual Decenial Census sent out to everyone is now just the SHORT FORM that in Canada does not include a citizen question.
Justice Roberts is mentally ill.
Willitts
I believe the question turned on administrative law matters, not whether citizenship questions are permissible. Under the Administrative Procedure Act, agencies must give reasoned explanations for their decisions. The courts did not buy the reasons CB gave. This is one in a long line of court decisions striking down agency actions for improper analysis. Generally a good thing from a conservatives point of view.
But clearly, ideology played a role in the outcome, having little to do with the census question.
Trump's cabinet basically made up the rationale of enforcing the Voting Right Act. Yeah sure. Roberts was right to call that out. What is sad though is that the rest of conservative wing seem to be okay with an ideologically run government rather than a rational, procedural one.
OK, tel us apply that.
Kamala just announced support of a home loan program for blacks, though the actual law will be race neutral. Her 'reasoned explanation' was supporting Black. According to the reasoned explanation, that fails. That reasonable explanation is a violation of the 14th. We can further apply that, Kamala by her statement can never ever introduce a housing bill, until the statue of limitations.
But, explain to me how the Administrative Procedure act, pass by Congress, can be applied when the power of census is mandated directly to the executive by constitution? The supremes interposed Congress where Congress was not specified, a major violation of separation of power.
3. "A new screen-free parenting coach economy
Those new jobs for old folks.
4. UK roadkill data,
We used to have a shock jock in the San Jose who had this game on morning radio. He would announce each road kill so the poor can go eat. One day there was no road kill, so he sent his secretary out onto the street to fulfill the need. He was fired the next day.
Do you know what "Greasemanelli" did to get fired? Maybe it's ancient history.
That's why I keep a snow shovel in the truck.
Only pick up road kill that wasn't there when you headed out to Walmart. That way you know it's fresh.
I am still laughing, great stuff.
1. Waldman said it's possible a census result showing a high percentage of undocumented people in a specific region of the U.S. could lead to stepped-up Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) patrols there.
news story: Canadian immigration lawyer unaware that the US has legal non-citizen residents
I don't think your conclusion make sense.
I don't see how another conclusion is possible. This was not going to be an "illegal immigrant" box. It would not show areas with high percentage of illegal immigrants.
I guess the idea is that there are a lot of people who don't trust ICE. I think that's why this isn't a big deal in Canada there's generally more trust in the institutions there. Maybe it's ill-founded but there is a lot of distrust there. Maybe ICE would just use high levels of non-citizen residences as an excuse to go harrass people in those neighbourhoods.
Canada doesn't share a border with Mexico.
Professor Steve Pinker
I see you've seen North America from Jeffery Epstein's plane too!
Great guy that Epstein. High IQ, great at math, great at porking.
Prior needs to get his meds checked again.
Thankfully he's assured us that he's covered by universal insurance.
4. AKA biases in selection of reported data... No way is the badger the most frequently killed mammal on the road (compared to squirrels, mice, etc.), but definitely would be more reported.
Not entirely true. There are fossiliferous formations that have an over-abundance of predators, which is weird--predators are by definition more rare than herbivores in an ecosystem! One explanation is that a prey animal dies, and predators go to eat it, and get killed themselves. This iterates a few times (a wolf tries to eat a deer, a mountain lion tries to eat the dead wolf, a hawk tries to eat the dead mountain lion, a wolf tries to eat the dead hawk, ad infinitum) and you get a situation where the ecosystem has a normal predator/prey ratio, but the fossil bed has one that's HEAVILY skewed to predators.
Something similar can happen with roadkill. A prey animal dies near the road, and multiple predators get killed trying to eat it.
There are also differences in fear responses that may play a roll. If your response is to get out of Dodge, you may survive better than something who's fear response is "Stand and fight".
Fair enough, that is a possible mechanism that could explain badgers being the highest number reported. But add in the fact that I've spent a decent amount of time in the UK and seen roadkill there and in the US, I'll still go with the bias in reporting hypothesis.
I definitely agree that biased reporting is a significant factor here. The issue is removing that bias from the reporting. Road kill is a major ecological force right now, and figuring out how it works is going to be vital to understanding how to establish the next long-term stable ecological paradigm (the last one ended about 12ka, and whether Environmentalists like it or not humans are going to be central to the next one.)
1. From the link: "Immigration lawyer Lorne Waldman said the political and electoral landscape in Canada is drastically different from the one in the U.S. and would not allow for that kind of "gerrymandering" — the manipulation of electoral boundaries to favour one party over others.
"In Canada, we have an impartial electoral commission that redistributes the electoral boundaries according to the law based on objective criteria," he said. "It's not an issue here at all, because we don't have that kind of gerrymandering that they have in the U.S."
It will probably have a million by tomorrow. The day after that, enough gravity to pull the moon out of orbit.
Robin Hanson claims to be "libertarian leaning" -- whatever that means.
where are his feet planted as he leans ?
1. Don't tell anyone, but Canada also requires photo ID for voting, too. (There's a loophole: if you forgot your ID at home, you can still vote if someone vouches for your identity. But the overwhelming majority just show their ID.)
Donald Trump is a very flawed human being, but it's just mindboggling to see procedures that are utterly routine in every other Western democracy being interpreted in the US as part of some sinister neo-fascist conspiracy. American exceptionalism is as strong with the left as it is with the right.
I think it comes down to a lot of Americans distrusting the government in a way you don't get in other western nations. And I don't think a lot of this mistrust is unfounded. American institutions are heavily politicized in a way that you do not generally find in other developed countries. Yes, you can have photo ID required for voting but the photo idea needs to also be fairly easy to obtain. A lot of these laws are indeed passed cynically and then all of a sudden DMVs start shutting down and "consolidating".
No, America is not uniquely politicized or polarized or mistrustful.
Europe provides many examples of people severely distrusting their governments. Consider the yellow vests of France, or the rudderless Brexit-muddled UK. Radically populist movements won elections in recent years in Greece and Italy. Orbán in Hungary established his regime thanks to massive mistrust and rejection of the older order, and today he himself is deeply distrusted by many. Poland is also an incredibly polarized society right now.
Hong Kong is maybe a small outpost of "west" in the east, and they sure don't trust their government right now.
Other countries had institutions historically segregated along religious and sociopolitical lines. Consider pillarisation in the Netherlands, the Catholic-Protestant divide in Northern Ireland, even the way your religion determines which football club you cheer for in Glasgow.
What's happening in America, and no doubt elsewhere, is that pressure groups calculate desirable outcomes based on naked partisan self-interest, and then work backwards to invent an often-absurd rationalization for them, with a heavy dose of blather and pretense about upholding sacred principles.
It's telling Photo ID voting opponents aren't pushing for photo IDs to be cheap and easy to obtain, as you suggest. They would not be satisfied if that solution was offered as a compromise. Any ID requirement at all is framed as "vote suppression". So it's tempting to just shrug over Republican transgressions if neither side actually cares about the moral high ground.
Miihau
It is not exceptionalism but American history that has shaped who we are today. Read up on the Cold War antics the FBI and CIA committed against large segments of Americans. Let's say it is the exact opposite of building trust in your people. The Canadian government has been much kinder to its people so they reap the benefits from that. To speak to the issue, a citizenship question is not strictly needed for a census. They just need to know that you exist and that's about it.
Nothing special there. Read up on what the Nazis and Stalinists committed against large segments of Europeans. Every place in the world has been shaped by its history.
Maybe censuses aren't needed anymore. According to Wikipedia, Germany hasn't had one since 1987. If researchers want detailed data about the population, they should just ask Google and Facebook, or seek to preserve the detailed neighborhood-by-neighborhood data compiled by modern political campaigns.
Actually Germany did have a census in 2011, but not the traditional kind that everyone fills out.
In Germany you need to formally register in every municipality you live in so they can keep track of people without a census.
1) I was surprised to hear that the citizenship question had been on previous Census forms but was removed by the Obama Administration.
I actually worked the 2000 Census but topped that when my town hired me to conduct a dog census.
4) I once read a piece of short fiction about a county worker whose job was to cruise the interstate loop (around Dallas I believe) and pick up roadkill. I wish I could remember how it ended.
If you read Tyler's column yesterday, he said it was in there until 1950.
Jonfraz
You should be surprised because what you assert is not true.
Occasionally a citizenship question is included on the long form census questionnaire that only a small fraction of people receive. The general form that everyone receives has NEVER asked about citizenship, going all the way back to 1790.
And no, the Obama administration did not remove such a question.
Moreover it is Congress not the White House which governs the census despite Trump's belief that he's in charge of it.

4. Weather: The problem is the earth goes through cycles of about 500 years. So, nothing new here. BTW, North America has been around for 300 million years. Do you think 150 years tells you everything you need to know about climate?
"The problem is the earth goes through cycles of about 500 years."
There are about a dozen different cycles that affect weather/climate. Pretty much any number you put in the above sentence will be wrong. The issue is to understand the component cycles, how they interact with each other, and how they affect the planet, individually and in aggregate. Not terribly easy.
"BTW, North America has been around for 300 million years."
Since Pangea didn't really start to break up until 250 million years ago, I find this number suspect.
The real issues are the opening of the Circumantarctic Current, the closing of the Isthmus of Panama, the shutdown of the Circumpolar Current, the raising of the Himalayas, and the end of the Permo-Triassic (last time we saw an ice age on the planet). OIS-11 is also critical, but for different reasons (anyone who has to ask why is too ignorant about climate science to contribute meaningfully to the discussion; that would be like asking a mechanic "Why is gas important in the car? Just make it run!").
"Do you think 150 years tells you everything you need to know about climate?"
This is a bit more accurate. For my money, anyone who discusses climate without understanding paleoclimatology is a fraud. Paleoclimatology is literally the field that studies past climate, which should be considered a prerequisite to holding an informed opinion on this topic.
#2..It looks like Prof Hanson is saying, "Listen G-d, I'm getting frozen and then living forever, so back off."
He and Ted Williams, they could be right!? And if memories stay implanted in the brain as neural connections, maybe he comes back and remembers everything the way it was now, 500 years from now?! Rip Van Winkle, but with no RIP!
Something way wrong with the roadkill figures. Far too low in total, and relatively far to high for badgers and foxes.
I cycle three or four times a week and see roadkill everyride. Never seen a badger, once seen a fox. Usually small and furry, sometimes small and spikey or feathery. Once a young deer.
Prof Emeritus
4. Poor badgers - I wonder if their deaths have anything to do with the stupid UK backroads with tall hedges on both sides. I'd expect the deer of the big games to be normally in lead in Continental Europe - since it has fish-eye vision and awful reaction times. The deer may just jump in front of a car from nowhere, it has totally unpredictable behavior. Plus they can vastly outnumber smaller games due to artificial population control in hunting areas.
Both foxes and badgers are far more cautious animals, if they sense danger (in the form of your car's noise or headlamps) they rush the hell away from the spot they are standing, you have to approach with a really high speed or from a really unnoticable position (hint: from a corner) to hit them.
The hedgehog and the pheasant checks out, though mapping snakes too would probably put them out of the lead.

Marshall ISD to get upgrades to athletic facilities
by: Tim Owens
Marshall Athletic Director and head football coach Jake Griedl said, "It's been a long time since Marshall has been the standard but that's what they want to be so we're getting back to that."
Since 2017 the Marshall Independant School District has been on a mission to upgrade the athletic facilities. In four years they've installed a state of the art scoreboard, a brand new press box, a weight room that rivals a large University, and now a new 120 yard indoor-outdoor
practice facility.
Griedl said, "For our kids to be able to benefit from the concept of an indoor and for our school district to be able to afford it and do it in a state of the art way is really awesome."
INCREDIBLE night for MISD! Thank you to @DrJGib and the MISD Board for making it happen:

— Jake Griedl (@JGriedl) May 18, 2020
Coach Greidl said they got the idea from the University of ALabama Birmingham's Legacy Pavillion, but that's not the only upgrades taking place at Marshall as football, baseball and softball are getting new turf.
Griedl said, "Both the softball field and the baseball field are going to be getting done as well and they'll both be full fields. It's going to be great just for the fact of less maintenance. We're going to attract a lot of games here, we're going to be a great site for UIL Playoff games."
The turf being installed is a new state of the art technology with a cooling agent that keeps the playing surface 20-30 degrees cooler.
Griedl said, "We could have done some things differently and been a really good facility in terms of all of our athletic facilities but his standard is elite and so we did the best that we could and it's kind of put us to an elite standard in our facilities and now as coaches and as teams that's the expectation that we need to go perform at."
The new turf on the football field was finished up Tuesday afternoon, while baseball, softball, and the new pavilion indoor facility is expected to be finished sometime in October.

It's the balmy days of the 1920s and where could be more pleasant for a holiday than a hotel on the Italian Riviera? Filled with prosperous English visitors, the Hotel offers a closed world of wealth and comfort. It also provides the stage for the display of social niceties, for passionate but unspoken love affairs and for the comedy of the shared bathroom. With great wit and insight Elizabeth Bowen's first novel lays bare the intricacies and eccentricities of polite society.
The worlds Bowen creates are so immediately absorbing, the glimpses she allows us of the eccentricities of other people's relationships so fascinating, that one cannot help wanting more

Elizabeth Bowen was born in Dublin in 1899, the only child of an Irish lawyer and landowner. She travelled a great deal, dividing most of her time between London and Bowen's Court, the family house in County Cork which she inherited. Her first book, a collection of short stories, Encounters, was published in 1923. The Hotel (1927) was her first novel. She was awarded the CBE in 1948, and received honorary degrees from Trinity College, Dublin in 1949, and from Oxford University in 1956. The Royal Society of Literature made her a Companion of Literature in 1965. She died in 1973.

Promising Practices in Undergraduate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education: Summary of Two Workshops (2011)
Chapter: 1 Introduction
Suggested Citation:"1 Introduction." National Research Council. 2011. Promising Practices in Undergraduate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education: Summary of Two Workshops. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press. doi: 10.17226/13099.
Today, a quiet revolution is under way in the teaching of undergraduate science, mathematics, engineering, and technology. Courses that have resembled nothing so much as their 19th century precursors are beginning to change, as students and instructors realize that employment and citizenship in the 21st century will require radically different kinds of skills and knowledge. A new generation of faculty is questioning the contemporary constraints of academic life and looking at new ways to balance the teaching of students with other priorities. Departments and institutions are acknowledging that their responsibilities extend beyond producing the next generation of scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and technicians; they are recognizing that the challenge also is to equip students with the scientific and technical literacy and numeracy required to play meaningful roles in society. (National Research Council, 1996, p. 1)
In the mid-to-late 1990s, the National Research Council (NRC) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) wrote reports on the state of undergraduate education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics—the disciplines collectively referred to as STEM (see National Research Council, 1996, 1999; National Science Foundation, 1996). As the quoted passage above suggests, these reports reflected past innovations and encouraged future innovations in STEM education at 2-year and 4-year post secondary institutions. In the decade after their release, NSF, other government agencies, and several private foundations dedicated hundreds of millions of dollars to improve the quality of STEM undergraduate education.
Since then, numerous teaching, learning, assessment, and institutional innovations in undergraduate STEM education have emerged. Because virtually all of these innovations have been developed independently of one another, their goals and purposes vary widely. Some focus on making science accessible and meaningful to the vast majority of students who will not pursue STEM majors or careers; others aim to increase the diversity of students who enroll and succeed in STEM courses and programs; still other efforts focus on reforming the overall curriculum in specific disciplines. In addition to this variation in focus, these innovations have been implemented at scales that range from individual classrooms to entire departments or institutions.
PROJECT ORIGIN
By 2008, partly because of this wide variability, it was apparent that little was known about the feasibility of replicating individual innovations or about their potential for broader impact beyond the specific contexts in which they were created. The research base on innovations in undergraduate STEM education was expanding rapidly, but the process of synthesizing that knowledge base had not yet begun. If future investments were to be informed by the past, then the field clearly needed a retrospective look at the ways in which earlier innovations had influenced undergraduate STEM education.
To address this need, NSF asked the NRC to convene an ad hoc steering committee to plan and implement a series of two public workshops focused on a thoughtful examination of the state of evidence of impact and effectiveness of selected STEM undergraduate education innovations. The steering committee was appointed and charged with identifying selection criteria and selecting STEM innovation "candidates" from reform efforts in teaching, curriculum, assessment, and faculty development. Of particular interest were STEM innovations in which the evidence of impact is strong and rich enough to analyze its effect on the "uptake" and sustainability of an innovation over time. The committee adopted the term "promising practices" to refer to innovations in STEM learning, teaching, and assessment.
The first workshop took place in June 2008 and focused on the challenge of aligning the learning goals of—and evidence of effectiveness for—promising practices within and across the science disciplines. In the second workshop, held in October 2008, participants delved more deeply into a select group of the promising practices in undergraduate STEM education that came to light at the June meeting. In planning both workshops, the committee focused in particular on innovations associated with the first two years of undergraduate STEM education. The innovations discussed in October represent a small proportion of the many promising practices
in undergraduate STEM education—time constraints during the workshop, the availability of promising practices with known evidence of effectiveness, and the availability of speakers influenced the innovations that were discussed at the October meeting.
In addition to planning a broad exploration of the evidence, the committee sought to connect education researchers from different disciplinary fields and to provide foundational information for a parallel NSF-funded initiative by the Wisconsin Center for Education Research. That initiative, Engaging Critical Advisors to Formulate a New Framework for Change: Expansion of "Toward a National Endeavor to Marshal Post secondary STEM Education Resources to Meet Global Challenges," focused on future directions for STEM and aimed to identify new strategies for organizing and implementing STEM undergraduate education practices. It underscored the need for the STEM community to take stock of what has been learned and to attend to the evidence base for drawing conclusions.
REPORT OVERVIEW
This volume summarizes the two NRC workshops on promising practices in undergraduate STEM education. Chapters 2 and 3 summarize the first workshop: Chapter 2 focuses on the link between learning goals and evidence, and Chapter 3 presents a range of promising practices at the individual, faculty, and institutional levels. Subsequent chapters address the topics that were taken up in the second workshop, which involved deeper explorations of selected promising practices in STEM undergraduate education. Chapters 4-6 address a range of classroom-based promising practices: scenario-, problem-, and case-based teaching and learning (Chapter 4); assessments (Chapter 5), and improving student learning environments (Chapter 6). Chapter 7 focuses on professional development for future faculty, new faculty, and veteran faculty. The volume concludes with a broader examination of the barriers and opportunities associated with systemic change (Chapter 8).
It is important to be specific about the nature of this report, which documents the information presented in the workshop presentations and discussions. Its purpose is to lay out the key ideas that emerged from the two workshops and that should be viewed as an initial step in examining the research. The report is confined to the material presented by the workshop speakers and participants. Neither the workshop nor this summary is intended as a comprehensive review of what is known about the topic, although it is a general reflection of the field. The presentations and discussions were limited by the time available.
This report was prepared by a rapporteur and does not represent findings or recommendations that can be attributed to the steering committee.
Indeed, the report summarizes views expressed by workshop participants, and the committee is responsible only for its overall quality and accuracy as a record of what transpired at the workshops. Also, the workshops were not designed to generate consensus conclusions or recommendations but focused instead on the identification of ideas, themes, and considerations that contribute to understanding.

Promising Practices in Undergraduate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education: Summary of Two Workshops Get This Book
Numerous teaching, learning, assessment, and institutional innovations in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education have emerged in the past decade. Because virtually all of these innovations have been developed independently of one another, their goals and purposes vary widely. Some focus on making science accessible and meaningful to the vast majority of students who will not pursue STEM majors or careers; others aim to increase the diversity of students who enroll and succeed in STEM courses and programs; still other efforts focus on reforming the overall curriculum in specific disciplines. In addition to this variation in focus, these innovations have been implemented at scales that range from individual classrooms to entire departments or institutions.
To address this need, the National Research Council (NRC) convened two public workshops to examine the impact and effectiveness of selected STEM undergraduate education innovations. This volume summarizes the workshops, which addressed such topics as the link between learning goals and evidence; promising practices at the individual faculty and institutional levels; classroom-based promising practices; and professional development for graduate students, new faculty, and veteran faculty. The workshops concluded with a broader examination of the barriers and opportunities associated with systemic change.

Google as opposed to Microsoft
Google and Micorsoft
Assessing Microsoft and Goggle
Vershawn Kirksey
Teacher: Hines
In the current society many people are using the internet more and more to shop on-line, handle organization transactions and surf the web for what interests them. Microsoft company and Yahoo are proven to many persons as net giants. Both companies be competitive for business in the world of internet by offering related online business solutions. Microsoft also offers an array of computer products to consumers and businesses including Windows six, Microsoft business office and MSN. Google's key focus of business is their search engine that many people make use of today to surf the internet. This conventional paper will compare and contrast Microsoft's and Google's business design, financial management system and make clear which company may better endure a major economic depression and at the same time, assess their economic ratios and decide which two companies that might be better to purchase. Microsoft was started in 75 by Expenses Gates and Paul Allen who created an interpreter for fundamentals programming dialect systems that has contributed to Microsoft's being and so successful. Microsoft company is one of the most significant technology corporations in the world which specializes in expanding and certification computer software items such as Glass windows 7, Ms office, MSN and Msn. Microsoft's managing team is usually led simply by chief executive officer Dorrie Ballmer who have also will serve on the executive board, chief Bill Entrance, seven directors, and one chief monetary officer which can be all nonexecutive board people. The company have been known for it is leadership style through the founder Costs Gates pertaining to donating funds to many charities and aiding the poor. Microsoft is also considered to be an boss for the new-age office where job is made to be comfy, fun and motivating so that all employees can enjoy doing all their work and like to use their period there as well. Bill Entrances did not also finish college or university but his work integrity are being shown in schools through the community. Microsoft has a excellent track record for development because it continually come up with new technology and gadgets every year (Datamonitor, a, 2011). On the other hand, Microsoft is in competition with Google and other net companies above the use of google search engines. Yahoo was founded in 1998 by two Stanford College or university graduate college students, Sergey Bout and Lewis Page. Yahoo is a global technology organization that is targeted on enhancing the way people get their details from the internet. Google has 3 core businesses search, adverts, and applications. The search engine driven by Google provides information for a lot of users each day. It must be identified that info reported to the Google search engine is beneficial towards the user; a couple of criteria have been developed to serve this kind of purpose. A common method of identifying the performance of the page for the user is searching the document for keywords. Keywords has to be entered to find your service on Google, and the documents are scanned to determine how often they appear. The more keywords a file has tends to indicate their usefulness for the user. Another evaluating theory for credit reporting useful pages is the rating for the page and quality of the site. Websites receive ranks which reveal quality, relevance, and accuracy and reliability. Websites who have high search positions and numerous keywords are reported to the consumer first. This approach of obtaining information permits the user to get vital info in a matter of seconds. Search advertisements are used to further aid users, and also to offer Google's main services and products and provide valuable and relevant information for people who use the search engines like google for answers they look for. Google search engine is like Microsoft's Bing internet search engine. Google likewise sells their very own product and services in more than 90 languages throughout the world.

Gardai appeal for witnesses to savage attack on Maynooth student
Kym Owens (18) in serious but stable condition
Gardai at the scene in Maynooth earlier today
Henry Bauress
henry.bauress@leinsterleader.ie
Gardai investigating the serious attack that occurred near the entrance of the Moyglare Abbey Estate, Maynooth, have named the student who was seriously assaulted around 8.30pm on Sunday.
At a press conference at 12.30pm this afternoon, at the scene of the crime at Moyglare Abbey estate, Garda Superintendent Gerry Wall of Leixlip Garda Station named the girl as Kym Owens (18), a native of Castleblayney, Co Monaghan.
Kym, an Arts student at Maynooth University, was attacked within 500m of her digs in the estate, and was found, unconscious, at a location around 50m inside the entrance of the estate.
Supt Wall described her as being in "a stable condition" at the ICU unit in Blanchardstown Hospital. She had "extensive head injuries".
Her parents are at her bedside, he said, and they have asked for privacy. He said her condition had not changed much up to this morning. She is in "a serious but stable condition".
Supt Wall said the assault was very serious and asked for the public help with any information, particularly those who were in the vicinity of Maynooth Village/Moyglare Abbey Estate between 7.30pm and 9.15pm on night Sunday night, November 20.
Witnesses are asked to contact the incident room in Leixlip Garda Station on 01 6667800, the Garda Confidential Telephone Line, 1800 666 111 or any Garda station.
The scene has been preserved for technical examination. No arrests have been made.
Supt Wall said Kym is 5ft 3ins and has long brown hair. She was wearing a dark green coat with a hood and there was a red hood inside her coat. She also wore black jeans and a white shoes.
On Sunday evening she took the AB bus from Monaghan town to Maynooth, via Slane, which arrived in Maynooth around 8.15pm.
Her estate is around one kilometre from the town centre and she was about 500m from her digs when she was seriously assaulted and left unconscious on the path.
Supt Wall said he had been provided with extra Garda resources for this investigation and they are appealing to the public for any help whatsoever, no matter, how trivial people may think it is.
He said they were keeping an open mind as to whether there was one or more attackers or whether the attacker/s were on the bus from Monaghan, or came upon her in the area,
Supt Wall said the attacker appeared to have been "in a very agitated state" and asked people to try and recall if they met anyone, including friends of theirs, who were agitated or had marks on their clothes.
"Any information, no matter how trivial, may provide a link," he said.
Supt Wall said the attack took place in a quiet part of a town which has a lot of students. It is "a quiet and respectable area".
The assault was "a very rare occurrence" and the "fullest support" would be given to policing locally.
Supt Wall said he would be speaking to students in Maynooth at Maynooth Students Union this afternoon.
He said Gardai are keeping an "open mind" as to whether it was a random attack.
Asked by media about advice to students, particularly female students, Supt Wall said that if possible they should try not to travel alone, keep a phone with them and tell someone about their expected departure and arrival times.
Regarding Garda resources in the area, Supt Wall said that in December there will be further Garda resources coming from Templemore as a result of an allocation announced in September.
Asked for a comment, Kildare County Cllr Reada Cronin, who lives around 40m from the scene of the attack, and whose daughter is a student at Maynooth University, told the Leader that she did not hear anything at the time the assault on Sunday evening.
Cllr Cronin said there has been calls for Maynooth Garda Station to have longer opening hours.

MetricNet to Present the Industry's First ROI Workshop at Service Management World
MetricNet, LLC
Jun 13, 2019, 03:00 ET
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev., June 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- MetricNet is pleased to announce that Jeff Rumburg, Managing Partner of MetricNet, has been invited to present the industry's first ROI workshop at the annual Service Management World conference in Orlando, Florida. Powered by HDI, the leading organization dedicated to elevating service and support across the enterprise, Service Management World 2019 will take place November 9-13 at the Omni Resort at ChampionsGate in Orlando, FL.
Mr. Rumburg will be presenting "What's Your Value Proposition? The Industry's First ROI Workshop!". This one-hour interactive workshop will call on volunteers to develop a sample ROI calculation and, using a downloadable ROI template, all attendees will know their ROI by the end of the session! Additionally, Mr. Rumburg will provide a case study roadmap for how one organization developed its IT service and support value proposition with ROI as the centerpiece.
"Return on investment (ROI) is one of the most common and important measures of financial performance in the business world. Yet fewer than 10% of all technical support organizations utilize this critical metric," said Jeff Rumburg. "The result is that many IT service and support organizations are on the defensive when it comes to budgeting and spending, and often struggle just to get the funding needed to deliver adequate levels of support."
Those interested in hearing Mr. Rumburg present the ROI workshop should attend Session 105 on Tuesday, November 12 at 10:00 AM. All those involved in the planning, delivery and support of IT services, and the fundamental concepts behind service management, are encouraged to attend. This includes Senior-Level VPs and Directors, Managers, CIOs and CTOs.
Mr. Rumburg is the winner of the Ron Muns Lifetime Achievement Award, was named to HDI's Top 25 Thought Leaders list for three consecutive years, and has served on HDI's Strategic Advisory Board. He is co-founder and Managing Partner of MetricNet, LLC, where he is responsible for global strategy, product development, and client engagement delivery.

My God, what have I done?
It's been a whirlwind forty-eight hours. First Cameron came up with a motion supporting military intervention in Syria. Then Miliband went in with a softening amendment and said he would not support the government unless the amendment was passed. Cameron softened his motion to accomodate Miliband.
Then, to Cameron's apparent fury, Miliband declined to support it anyway, thus setting the stage for an extraordinary event: the first defeat by a government on a matter of national defence in over 230 years.
I do not, in all honesty, that Miliband was at all confident he would defeat the government. I believe he thought he was acting in good faith to ensure that all the i's were dotted and t's crossed before British troops were sent into action. But that is what happened.
Afterwards Cameron, apparently to the surprise of the Miliband entourage, removed the possibility of intervention from the table.
Miliband, given a way out of his predicament of being seen to have torpedoed the process, took it and said he was not really interested in intervention, either. Tellingly, he said:
Military intervention is now off the agenda for Britain. There would have been nothing worse than intervention without full international support.
Presumably this meant Russia and China in the UN Security Council, because it is clear that US and France are proceeding to some kind of action (interestingly, it was earlier confirmed to me that this was not the case, that he would not be beholden to Russian and Chinese opinions).
It is true, as my good colleague Mark Ferguson noted at LabourList, that there were enough votes in the Commons to still carry intervention, if not through a standard whipping process.
But I think there is a simple reason for Cameron's reaction, and it is not petulance. I believe Cameron would have gone to considerable lengths to embark upon military action. It was that he could not continue to invest his fast-diminishing political capital in a joint venture with a partner he could not trust, after his experience in the earlier vote.
And where does that leave us? In a situation which has been botched with, sadly, the leader of my party at the centre of the botching and now talking about bringing "diplomatic, political and other pressure" to bear on Assad.
Because he's clearly really going to respond to that, right?
When the dust settles from all this, I am afraid that the historians will see this moment with Cameron in rather a positive light, as someone who tried his best in a difficult situation, but failed. And they Miliband as someone who, either through clumsiness or, worse, politicking, squandered the chances of Britain helping a benighted people in their hour of need.
As if to show the House of Commons the full horror of what it had achieved, a children's school was bombed with a napalm-like substance.
I shall probably blog about this at greater length, but for the moment I will leave you with the words of my good comrade, Nick Cohen, from today:
Can't help thinking that the British Parliament's Syrian vote will be remembered as a low and mean moment in our history
— Nick Cohen (@NickCohen4) August 30, 2013
Roger McCarthy 30 August 2013 at 19:39
On interventionism I am broadly with you and with Nick Cohen.
But Miliband acted honourably tabling a motion which would not have precluded military action but delayed it to a point where maximum Parliamentary, public and international support could be generated.
Which is precisely what Blair did in 2003 - he did not rush us to war in days but took all the time necessary.
The blame here falls entirely on Cameron who barrelled ahead without even securing the support of his own MPs and seemed eager above all to wrongfoot Labour so it could be labelled as 'weak, weak, weak'.
The tragedy is that he will probably survive this disaster and may still even win the next election and the only people to pay a price will be the Syrians.
Rob Marchant 31 August 2013 at 11:37
An interesting point of view, although obviously I disagree. I think you are right that Cameron did not handle the situation at all well. But the combination of Cameron's "essay crisis" mentality, as today's excellent Times leader called it, and Miliband's fumbling, caused a result that no-one really wanted.
I do not question the honorability of Miliband's intentions. But I do think he has mishandled this terribly.
Worst of all, as many people have pointed out today, he has still not indicated where Labour stands on an intervention that will surely go ahead anyway. Will he support it or not? It is somewhat ridiculous that no-one can answer this question.

«Cosas del azar» es el tercer episodio de la primera temporada de  Metástasis.

'Walter' pelea con 'José Miguel' debido a su adicción a las drogas y José Miguel se va, dejándole solo con su cautivo, 'El Loco'; 'Henry' lleva a 'Walter Jr.' a dar un paseo para hablarle acerca de la marihuana; a 'Cielo' no le gusta que Walter esté tan ausente de casa.

Introducción

'Walter" y 'José Miguel', llevando máscaras antigás y protección, trabajan en la limpieza de los restos de Emilio, ahora esparcidos por el suelo del pasillo tras haber sido disuelta la bañera y derrumbado el techo. La peculiar escena hace que Walter piense en su pasado por un instante. En un flashback, es visto en un laboratorio junto con una 'compañera de investigación' y ambos analizan la composición química de un cuerpo humano. Tras descubrir que sólo hasta un 99% del contenido del cuerpo son elementos químicos, Walter plantea la posibilidad de que haya algo más en un ser humano.

De vuelta a la actualidad, Walter vierte el contenido sangriento de un cubo al váter y tira de la cadena.

Historia

En casa de los Blanco, 'Cielo' y 'Walter Jr.' pintan una habitación y se asoma 'María'. Suena el teléfono de Walter Jr. y él se ausenta. Cielo aprovecha para contarle a su hermana que está escribiendo una historia sobre un personaje adicto y le pregunta sobre la marihuana. María cree que Cielo en realidad está hablando de su hijo Walter Jr., pero ella insiste en que está hablando sobre un personaje, aunque María al final no se lo cree.

Mientras tanto, en casa de 'Jose Miguel' , él va al baño para fumar metanfetamina. En el sótano, 'El Loco', quien sigue encadenado con el candado de bicicleta, llama la atención de 'Walter' al llamarle por su nombre y le revela que José Miguel les contó varios detalles de su vida. Enfadado, Walter va a por un Rosas drogado quien se niega a abrir la puerta del baño. Walter tira la puerta abajo, le grita y le coge la bolsa con droga.
