Cannabis pollen was found on the mummy of Ramesses II, who died in 1213 BCE. Seven pollen grains of cannabis were retrieved from the Pharaoh's mummy, and pollen of cotton was found in the same ancient context. The paleobotanists who retrieved these crops suggested that they may not have been native species and were rather introduced.

High Hopes for Higher Resolution
By Tom Butts 12 September 2016
First off, let's dispense with the niceties. All of this talk within the broadcast community about how consumers will react to the quality of 4K/UHD pictures is just that: talk. How we personally feel about the degree of difference in resolution and consumers' perception of said quality won't matter much to shoppers making a decision about whether to trade up to next-generation television. To a lot of people, UHD isn't worth the price of the upgrade yet, but once prices come into line with those of current 1080p sets (which they are quickly doing), it will be, especially once UHD becomes the only option available. As for high dynamic range and high frame rate? Sure, they are icing on the cake (with OLED as the cherry on top), but the jury is still out on how much of an effect they will have on consumers' choices.
Sony launched its Z-Series UHD/4K TVs in July, featuring picture enhancements such as HDR capability and new backlight technology. The big variable in the rollout of UHD is in the availability of content. Much has changed since the rollout of HDTV, the largest being the ubiquity of over-the-top alternatives to broadcast and traditional pay-TV services as well as the explosion of mobile screens. Survey after survey demonstrates that millennials are abandoning the traditional big-screen TV in favor of tablets and smartphones. So regardless of how one feels about the experience, the reality is that resolution and picture quality aren't always the overriding factors in how one chooses to consume media.
Two recent reports shine some light on the future of UHD and reach similar conclusions about which factors will determine the format's success: content and bandwidth availability and device capabilities. And both conclude that OTT will be the driver of the format.
In its report, "A Clearer Picture of Growth: 2016 Global 4K/UHD Industry Survey," SNL Kagan interviewed 475 global video service providers (including pay TV/OTT operators and content producers), of which 96 percent of respondents believe that a majority of consumers and video service providers will adopt 4K/UHD by 2020, with 78 percent of total respondents expecting launches within two years. Differentiation from competition as well as the need to be "in the game" are the biggest drivers for adoption among survey respondents, who also believe that consumers will be willing to fork out an extra 10 to 30 percent on top of their current services for 4K content. Connected 4K TVs will be the primary device for viewing high-resolution content, with live sports and early release movies expected to be the most popular content for consumption. Globally, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to lead the pack in terms of early adoption, with Europe and North America close behind.
Since live sports will be a major driver of 4K adoption, concerns over bandwidth availability for 4K/UHD take on greater importance, with more than 60 percent of respondents rating the issue as potentially having a high impact. UHD is a notorious bandwidth hog and adding HFR and HDR to the picture just adds to the burden (and despite the rumors of its demise, physical media, including UHD players are expected to still be an important part of the distribution mix). Fortunately some of the concerns over bandwidth can be alleviated by advances in compression technology; according to the survey, 54 percent of video service providers say they will offer different resolutions to fit multiple devices, however only 40 percent of content producers expect to provide content at different resolutions.
Another report on the format from Juniper Research estimates that more than 189 million unique users will be using 4K OTT services globally, up from just 2.3 million this year. In its report, "Digital TV and Video: Network and OTT Strategies 2016–2021," it predicts that in the United States, 10 percent will be watching 4K video online by 2021 compared to just one in 500 this year, with connected TVs being the dominant channel. It bases much of its optimism on the increasing availability of 4K options from the likes of Youtube, Netflix and Amazon as well as the market availability of 4K-capable OTT boxes. Juniper also predicts that 8K will become a market force by 2020, with TV shipments growing threefold between 2020 and 2021 to 400,000 per year.
So when it comes to adopting next-generation 4K/UHD media, the experts are relatively bullish, though with several caveats—all related to timing, availability and consumer preferences. Pretty much what it was like with HDTV.

Static-X discography reference list of music CDs.
Nu-metal simple and repetitive, but with tons of programming and weird sampled noises that make them more industrial; kind of a dumbed-down Fear Factory.
The music discographies on this site are works in progress. If you notice that a particular Static-X CD release or compilation is missing from the list above, please submit that CD using the CD submission page. The ultimate goal is to make the discographies here at Brutal Metal as complete as possible. Even if it is an obscure greatest-hits or live compilation CD, we want to add it to the site. Please only submit official CD releases; no bootlegs or cassette-only or LP-only releases.
EPs and CD-singles from Static-X are also welcome to be added, as long as they are at least 4 songs in length.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Portland police identified a man who was shot and killed during a disturbance on a TriMet bus on August 8. Police said 44-year-old Adrian Anastacio Richardson died.
The Oregon State Medical Examiner ruled his death a homicide.
Around 5:28 p.m. on Sunday, officers responded to a report of a person shot in the area of Southeast Hawthorn Boulevard and Southeast 26th Avenue. Officers found Richardson with gunshot wounds and he was taken to the hospital where he later died.

The suspect fled before officers arrived. As of Thursday morning, no arrests have been made and police have not released any suspect information. Police have not released any additional details about what led up to the shooting.
TriMet is sharing security video with police to help with the investigation. A spokesperson released this statement earlier this week:
"Our thoughts go out to the loved ones of the person who died, as well as to our operator and the people who were on board the bus at the time of the incident. We hope everyone involved can find comfort and healing during this difficult time."
According to police, there have been 59 homicides in Portland in 2021, which surpasses 55 homicides in 2020. Police said the same 16 detectives are investigating multiple homicides. Last year, there were 10 homicides detectives and the bureau increased those numbers this year with hopes of adding more.
"Just to try to keep up with the number of homicides that we're experiencing in Portland," said Lt. Greg Pashley with Portland police.
Anyone with information is asked to contact detective Jeff Sharp at Jeff.Sharp@portlandoregon.gov or 503-823-9773.

Paul Pogba has paused after the biggest win of his international career to dedicate it to the Thai soccer team whose last members were freed from a flooded cave hours earlier.
The France midfielder took to Twitter shortly after France beat Belgium late Tuesday to advance to the World Cup final. He posted the boys' photos and said the victory "goes to the heroes of the day, well done boys, you are so strong."
The last of the 12 boys and their coach were freed earlier in the day from a cave where they had been trapped for more than two weeks.
FIFA had invited the team to the World Cup final on Sunday but the governing body announced the boys wouldn't be able to attend since they are receiving medical treatment after their ordeal.
Paris has erupted in firecrackers, flares and shouts and tears of joy after France advanced to the World Cup final.
Red smoke rose up from flares fired by fans on the Right Bank esplanade outside City Hall, where crowds watched a broadcast of the 1-0 victory over Belgium on huge screens Tuesday night.
Fans poured onto streets around the city, from the chic Champs-Elysees to working-class neighborhoods on the edge of town. Firecrackers popped in quick succession, punctuated by car horns and football chants and "On est en finale!" or "we're in the final!"
Some streets were closed to car traffic to accommodate fans. Police vans lined the busiest areas in a city still on guard after extremist attacks.
France will face the winner of Wednesday's semifinal between England and Croatia in the World Cup decider in Moscow on Sunday. The French public, celebrities and politicians have rallied around the national team as it advanced.
Samuel Umititi scored the only goal in the semifinal with a header in the 51st minute at the St. Petersburg stadium in Russia.
Umititi says "We worked really hard together, and it's me that scored but we all delivered a big game."
His live TV interview was interrupted by teammate Antoine Griezmann, who saluted to the camera and said: "Vive la France! Vive la Republique!"
France has reached the World Cup final for the first time since 2006 with a 1-0 win over Belgium in a semifinal match that attracted presidents, royalty and a rock star.
Samuel Umtiti's header in the 51st minute was the only goal in a tense match at St. Petersburg.
France, the 1998 champions and runners-up in '06, will play either Croatia or England in Sunday's final at Moscow. England and Croatia will meet Wednesday in Moscow in the second semifinal.
France President Emmanuel Macron and King Philippe of Belgium shook hands in the VIP section before the match. Mick Jagger was also on the official list of guests.
What came first, the chicken or the goal?
Harry Kane, Dele Alli were among the England players who played a game of toss the rubber chicken at training, a day ahead of a World Cup semifinal against Croatia.
"That's exactly what I asked our fitness coaches around here," England coach Gareth Southgate said. "Our physical performance coaches try to keep refreshing the warmups of the players and keep them stimulated. Just a bit of fun to get them moving, and some of the mobility exercises."
Samuel Umtiti has headed France into a 1-0 lead against Belgium in the World Cup semifinals.
Umtiti rose brilliantly to head in Antoine Griezmann's corner from the right in the 51st minute, for his first goal of the tournament.
Striker Olivier Giroud won the corner after turning Belgian defender Vincent Kompany, forcing him to put his goal-bound shot out of play.
The winner in St. Petersburg plays Croatia or England in Sunday's final.


We take lots of photos and videos with the important people in our lives, but sharing those memories can take time. We get busy and forget. To help you share and receive more of the meaningful moments in your life, we've launched suggested sharing and shared libraries, which we recently announced at Google I/O.
Suggested sharing uses machine learning to automatically identify photos and suggest recipients, making sharing as simple as a single tap. With shared libraries, sending and receiving photos with one person is effortless—you can automatically share your full photo library or customize just what you want to share.
Here are a few quick tips to get started.
1. The Sharing tab is where you can see your Google Photos sharing activity, including photos and videos sent to you and that you've sent to others. At the top, you'll see your personal suggestions, based on your sharing habits and the people in the photos.
2. Google Photos recognizes a meaningful moment like a summer BBQ or wedding, selects the right shots, and suggests who may want to see the photos. You can change the photos or suggested recipients before sending. As always with Google Photos, you can share with anyone —even if they don't use Google Photos—via their email address or phone number.
3. If your friends and family were with you and use Google Photos, they may get a reminder to add their photos to the album, too. You'll get notified when new photos are added and can now see all the photos in one place.
1. For sharing all your photos with that special someone, you can use shared libraries. Let's say Daniel wants to share his library with his wife, Leslie. Starting in the menu bar in the top left, he selects "Share your library" and enters Leslie's email address. He can share his entire photo library, or just photos of specific people, such as photos of Leslie, or photos of their daughter. He can also give Leslie access only to photos starting from a certain day, such as the day they first met.
2. Once Leslie accepts the invitation, she can see the photos Daniel has shared with her. As Daniel takes more photos, they are shared with Leslie automatically. Now Daniel doesn't have to remember to send photos to Leslie. Google Photos will share them automatically and will notify Leslie when new photos arrive.
3. Leslie can choose to automatically save all of Daniel's photos or just photos of certain people, like their daughter. These saved photos will be searchable for her, and will show up in the movies, collages, and other creations that Google Photos makes for Leslie.
With suggested sharing and shared libraries—rolling out now across Android, iOS and web— it's fast and easy to give and get the photos you care about, so you can spend less time sharing your memories, and more time enjoying them.

Choose a rubber that suits you: The innovative revolution of nanoFLEX is the new development with the wow effect. It is a premium rubber with the latest high state-of-the-art technology. Players at all levels have participated during the development and testing of this rubber. GEWO technicians have created a new innovative high tech rubber series with nanoFLEX, a geometry adapted pimple structure. The result is an attacking weapon that gives a catapult like acceleration.
The newly developed pimple geometry adapts to the ball surface guaranteeing a highly explosive spinny shot during all playing situations. The highly tacky tension surface generates enormous spin ratings thanks to the very dynamic elastic surface. The nanoFLEX series offers tremendous feeling with the optimum dynamics of spin and power for all professional and serious players.
The GEWO nanoFLEX is built with the medium sponge of the nanoFLEX series. This rubber with its medium+ sponge closes the gap between the harder FT48 and the soft FT40 version. Here the pip geometry was developed in order to generate a perfect balance between spin and speed. Whether close to the table or mid distance the FT45 offers more precision pressure play and a great option of varying spin strategies. nanoFLEX FT45 is ideal for top spin players looking for a medium sponge with the main focus on spin and power.
Have had bad experience with other Gewo-rubbers. They seems like cheape rversions of bigger brands- tries to copy them, but fails big-time. This too. 9.5 in spin voted here! Wow, it isnt like R47, T05, MX.S and the likes. Far away, with noticeble worse performance. Stay away, buy some Tibhar, Nittaku for the same price, and you have a double better rubbers. Played the thinnest, think it was 1.7 mm.
Gewo NanoFlex FT45 2.1mm, black, used on Stiga All Classic and KTL Instinct. This is an excellent product from a minor brand, and has very few weaknesses. The firm topsheet couples really well with the medium-hard sponge. Durability is good but a dull patch appears early on in it's lifespan; fortunately the only difference this makes is a lower throw on weaker shots like blocks. Close to the table this rubber performs well; service is spinny and easy to place, close to net touch-play is very controlled due to the less reactive topsheet. Flicks are average since the topsheet does not have excessive grip on compact strokes especially against heavy backspin, but responds better to spin from an accelerated arm speed. Backspin pushing is better than any other offensive rated rubber I've tried. Short loops are very spinny and have a short trajectory due to the impressive range of lower gears, enabling effective topspin placement around the table. Attacks with a flatter trajectory are also easily attainable. Blocking is a breeze; so is looping at mid distance - every shot has a pleasing, adjustable arc, meaning you can vary your pressure easily. It also smashes particularly well due to its low reactivity to spin, and has plenty of control in advanced speed play. For power looping this might need a fast blade because it's a step down in speed from professional 'Tenergy clones', and doesn't have a big trampoline effect. Overall this is a superb controlled and spinny rubber, it's real selling point being that it allows you to focus on making your own shots better without the worry of a rapidly changing throw angle. Plus, every shot is easy to play; thus, I would highly recommend Gewo NanoFLEX to developing intermediate players. More offensive players should consider the FT48 version. Enjoy your TT!


Lowcountry Geologic has just completed another update to our website. Its been a while since our last post, so this update contains a nice mix of different fossils from all over the world.
We have included some very nice megalodon teeth for shark tooth collectors. They are some of the best colored, large specimens we've ever obtained. We also added some top shelf Suwanee River auriculatus. They are big with great color and are very complete. We also replenished our Otodus stock with some large, high quality Moroccan specimens. We even added some beautiful polished Chilean mako teeth - perfect for jewelry! Oh, before we forget, don't miss the Summerville Mako over 3 inches.There's only one and its a beauty!


Be not deceived; God is not mocked:for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
And let us not be weary in well doing:for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Thank you O Lord for answering my prayers in Jesus name.

Pars pro toto (з лат., дослівно — Частина замість цілого, сутнісно — Частина, яка сприймається як ціле) — риторичний прийом, варіант синекдохи, який полягає в заміні назви предмету назвою його частини, напр. — власний куточок замість власний дім, дах над головою замість дім.
У класичній риториці цією назвою визначається техніка свідомого обману слухачів шляхом подання лише певної частини інформації (істини), при одночасному переконуванні (способом висловлювання, контекстом, i т.д.) їх, що це повна істина.
Pars pro toto є одним із загальновживаних інструментів в іконографії та орнаменталістиці, де завжди окрема ікона чи орнамент є лише символами, які презентують цілісний об'єкт з широким набором сутнісних характеристик. Зокрема, в епоху неоліту — період розквіту орнаментації — у візерунках на посуді
містився певний набір знаків та ідеограм конкретного племені, який відповідав образній картині світу, притаманній культурі цієї групи населення.
В сучасній політичній географії та історії принцип Pars pro toto часто використовується для позначення географічних (не топонімічних) назв окремих країн чи територій. Як правило, таке застосування є дуже неточним, суперечливим, а часом і конфліктним, позаяк дуже часто воно звужує або розширює усталені геополітичні межі об'єктів.

Приклади використання Pars pro toto в сучасній географії
 «Англія» замість Велика Британія чи Сполучене Королівство Великої Британії та Північної Ірландії
 «Антигуа» замість Антигуа і Барбуда
 «Балкани» замість Балканський півострів
 «Боснія» замість Боснія і Герцеговина
 «Голландія» замість Нідерланди

Three mobile robots from Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR) are helping Honeywell Analytics keep its manufacturing processes lean and agile by automating the transfer of materials throughout the facility.
Freeing employees from low-value material-transportation tasks also supports other lean manufacturing goals, including the ability to have multi-skilled staff who can work on a variety of production lines as needed. "We like to have staff that can be multi-trained and multi-skilled so they can work in different parts of the business and help level-load the product," Ward said. In that way, the MiR robots fit right in—easily learning new routes and processes to adapt to changing production needs.
Honeywell Analytics uses the MiRFleet software to manage three robots in its dynamic environment. The software assigns tasks to available and nearby robots, and ensures safe, efficient operation. Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering Leader Stuart Harris explained, "Because we have multiple robots here, we really needed a fleet manager to assign tasks to the robots and make sure that we have only got one robot in a place; particularly, for example, a narrow corridor, where we only want one robot at a time. The fleet manager looks after that for us." The software was also used to manage elements such as robot speed, so that the robot could move faster in some areas and slower in others. When a robot's battery is low, it automatically returns to a charging station while it waits for further orders.
Honeywell is a Fortune 100 diversified technology and manufacturing leader, serving customers worldwide with aerospace products and services; control technologies for buildings, homes, and industry; turbochargers; and performance materials. For nearly 50 years, Honeywell Analytics has been protecting people who put their lives on the line every day. Through advanced technology and pure industry know-how, Honeywell Analytics continues to improve and evolve their products.

Immigration raids hit farmers hard
ALBION, N.Y. (AP): A flurry of immigration raids has some farmers in upstate New York worried about their ability to harvest all of their fruits and vegetables.
The farmers blame a growing immigrant farm labor shortage on a dramatic rise in immigration enforcement at a time when national security restrictions have already sharply curtailed attempts by foreign workers to gain lawful seasonal employment in the United States.
``It's the worst year for immigration that we've ever had,'' said Robin Root, whose family farm lost 17 of the 60 seasonal workers it takes on during its peak harvest from July through September.
The mostly Mexican workers, hired to pick cucumbers, cabbage and pumpkins, were found to have false papers in two raids in May and August by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, Root said in Monday's Daily News of Batavia.
More than half of all farm workers in the country are undocumented immigrants, according to U.S. Department of Labor statistics. Last year, amid heightened immigration enforcement, California's seasonal migration was marked by spot worker shortages, and some fruit was left to rot in the fields.
Western New York has a reputation in farmworker circles as being aggressive in enforcing immigration laws, said Dale Stein, president of the Genesee County Farm Bureau.
Stein visited Washington, D.C., last week with seven other agricultural officials from western New York to push for a bill for agricultural workers. He's hoping Congress will support a plan to allow 1.5 million guest workers to work on American farms.
While many core groups of farmworkers have returned to the region this year, farms haven't had much luck convincing newcomers to come for about two months or so during the peak season, Stein said.
``They don't want to come here—it's too risky,'' he said.
Many farmers just want to get through the season without scrambling to fill a void from lost help.
``We're on pins and needles,'' said Peter Gregg, spokesman for New York Farm Bureau. ``The harvest could be disrupted at any time. It's iffy. A raid is always the underlying worry.''

Great Math News from City Springs School In Baltimore
May 24, 2016 by Cassy Leave a Comment
For the last year, I've been working with City Springs Elementary/Middle School in Baltimore. Here's a short description from the school's website:
City Springs Elementary/Middle School is a neighborhood charter school operated by the Baltimore Curriculum Project (BCP). We are a conversion charter school, which means we were an already existing Baltimore City Public School that was taken over by an outside operator to bring innovative and research-based curriculum and other programs to enhance the school. To learn more about BCP, click here.
Initially, the school was seeking help with its Middle School math. After I made a pair of on-site visits at the end of the 2014-2015 school year, Dr. Rhonda Richetta, Principal of City Springs, decided to adopt Singapore's Primary Mathematics Common Core Edition.
I've returned to City Springs periodically this year to provide continuing support as the school's teachers and coaches adopted a Singapore Math® curriculum. The school is making remarkable progress, and I want to share stories written by some of City Springs' dedicated teachers about the students' growth during the year.
I've clipped an excerpt from each story with teachers' observations and very valuable insights about the program and why it is working so well for their students. Please click on the links to read complete stories from the school's website. I love the photos of students showing off their skills and having fun with math!
Ms. Schoenleber: Introducing Singapore Math (November 2015) "Classroom manipulatives have helped our kids get better at problem solving and justifying their answers for tough math problems."
Ms. Hagemann: It's More than Just a Game (November 2015) "One way to get stronger in mental math is by use math-based games to reinforce basic concepts and encourage mathematical thinking…Students in Ms. Hageman's class love mental math games!"
Ms. Smith: Moving Ahead in Mathh (February 2016) "Singapore Math has been very challenging but it has also been very rewarding, and they have especially loved the use of manipulatives in class."
Ms. Barry: Stepping Up to the Ratio Challenge (February 2016) "Ratio problems can be really tricky. Sometimes these multi-step problems are so challenging that we spend 15, 30, or even 45 minutes on one problem! Our students love to rise to the challenge, and have grown so much in their math skills with these complex problems."
Ms. Barry's also class wanted to challenge readers to solve a ratio problem they worked on. How did you do?
Ms. Lineberry: Introducing Fractions (May 2016) "At first, we struggled to figure fractions out. Trying to wrap our minds around halves and fourths proved difficult at first. Things became a little clearer after we started using "manipulatives," hands-on objects used to illustrate math concepts."
Ms. Williams: Knowing All the Angles (May 2016) "Students began their geometrical journey by learning how to measure angles…Later, they will start learning to measure geometric angles made by two lines emanating out of the center of a circle, and eventually beginning exploring the complex world of geometry formulas."
Working with City Springs has been one of the most rewarding and enjoyable assignments of my career. Teachers have embraced the challenge of adopting a new program and students are making wonderful progress. I can't wait to see their growth in Year Two! Thank You, City Springs!
[Full disclosure: My work assignment at City Springs is contracted through Staff Development for Educators.]

Singapore Math® Schools Share Success Stories
October 15, 2014 by Cassy Leave a Comment
Excellence in Canadian math education — by way of Singapore
The Head of School at Trafalgar Castle School in Whitby, Ontario explains why his school adopted Math from Singapore and how it differs from other curricula:
We introduced Singapore Math to our school three years ago after researching a number of programs and determining that this method had the best achievement results internationally.
Singapore Math deliberately slows down the teaching of math, taking more time to ensure students grasp each concept before moving on. For example, students might spend two weeks on multiplying fractions, instead of spending a day or two and then coming back to it later.
Students use visuals aids such as bars and blocks before they start writing equations with "x" and "y," so they achieve a deeper grasp of the actions they perform. This visualization is not deployed nearly as much in Canadian classrooms. In most settings, you would see a concrete-abstract strategy whereby multiplication would use physical objects then shift to the abstraction of lining up numbers in a multiplication equation. Singapore Math introduces a middle step between the concrete and abstract called the pictorial approach. The students draw a diagram of the concepts going on. This extends to diagraming word problems on paper rather than the often frustrating scenario of trying to picture a problem in their heads.
One happy result of all this is that when students reach algebra, they've already met the core concepts pictorially; indeed in most cases students in grade 6 are able to understand algebraic concepts that normally wouldn't be grasped until mid-way through grade 8.
North Cross School transitions to Singapore Math
North Cross School is the first school in the Roanoke Valley (Virginia) to fully implement the Singapore Math® curriculum.
Beth Curran is the Mathematics Department Chair in the lower school at St. Anne's-Belfield in Charlottesville and led the training at North Cross School. When asked about their conversion to Singapore Math she said "during our first year of implementation our students were saying 'I understand math now.' One of our second grade teachers commented, 'At this point in the year (first trimester), I have never had students with such a solid understanding of place value.' Upon conclusion of our first year, our math team felt that our students' problem solving skills made huge leaps. We also noticed that students were persevering through difficult problems that in the past (or even the beginning of the year) they would have given up on. We didn't teach perseverance, necessarily, but concluded that because students were learning and practicing skills to mastery that it equipped them with the tools to tackle challenging problems. They always had a place to start."
North Cross Lower School Director, Deborah Jessee, believes that "a strong education in lower school builds a foundation of lifelong learning. It lays the pathways, creates excitement, and energizes students for the future. Singapore Math is a great way to enhance our lower school academic program and teach children not to be intimidated by new concepts and that it's okay to explore other ways of learning. They learn to not be intimidated by a complex problem. When a student understands how to break down a problem and can figure out how to solve it, that academic skill translates well to other subjects and helps them prepare for ACT and SAT testing down the road.
[Editor's Note: Over the past several years, I've had the honor of helping St. Anne's-Belfield School with its Singapore Math adoption. I'm delighted that Beth Curran was able to take her experiences and successfully train teachers at North Cross School. Congratulations, Beth!]
Singapore math forced teachers to learn new way to teach
Learning Singapore Math in Henderson County (Kentucky) first took hard work by teachers; previous math approach "made cooks…this makes chefs."
At the heart of the Singaporean approach to math is problem solving. This math curriculum doesn't focus as much on memorizing procedures, but understanding numbers and how they interact, officials said.
It's the how and the why, [third-grade teacher Evelyn] Cummings said.
Educators said this isn't how mathematics has been taught in the United States.
"Before I would teach my students a process, instead of problem solving. Now, we're teaching these kids to be problem-solvers," Cummings said.

Monday Mouse Watch: Let the West Side Waltz begin
Jim Hill brings you an update on what may be in the works for the westernmost portion of Downtown Disney. With the Virgin Megastore possibly exiting this dining, retail & entertainment district to then make room for an ESPN Zone
An item posted this past Friday on Screamscape about how the Cheesecake Factory will soon be pulling out of DisneyQuest got tongues wagging around the Web. As Disneyana fans began wondering if this intriguing new tidbit meant that WDW's indoor interactive theme park — long rumored to be on the ropes — could in fact be closing its doors. Perhaps as early as this summer.
Well, DQ isn't DOA. Not yet, anyway. No, the word coming out of Lake Buena Vista today is that DisneyQuest has been given a reprieve. With WDW Food & Beverage due to take over the day-to-day operations of that fifth floor food facility that the Cheesecake Factory will be vacating come June.
As to this indoor theme park's long-term prospects … Things are suddenly looking far rosier than they were even a year ago. Thanks in large part to Jay Rasulo's new corporate agenda as well as more pressing matters on the West Side of WDW's Downtown Disney retail, dining and entertainment complex.

As for the corporate part of this equation … In his role as Chairman of Disney Parks & Resorts, Jay genuinely believes that the future of the company lies in location-based entertainments (like that oceanfront resort that the Mouse recently announced that it would be building in Oahu) as well as urban entertainment centers (like that thing that Mickey keeps trying to get built in Singapore).
But it might be hard for Disney's board of directors to justify funding these new projects should the company's only existing LBE (i.e. WDW's DisneyQuest) suddenly close its doors. Which is why Rasulo has ordered that DQ stay open. At least for the foreseeable future.
Besides … Given the triage situation that Mickey now finds itself dealing with when it comes to La Nouba and the Virgin Megastore Orlando … DisneyQuest is really the least of the Mouse's worries right at this moment.
Copyright 1998 Disney. All Right Reserved
To explain: Just like with the Cheesecake Factory, Virgin & Cirque du Soleil's contracts with the Walt Disney Company — at least when it comes to these West Side facilities — are up for renewal this year. And given that Megastore Orlando has never really done as well as the parent company had hoped it would, the rumor is that Virgin is now leaning toward not renewing its lease on this Downtown Disney location. Which means that the Mouse may soon find a 49,000 square foot hole in its West Side line-up.
Which is why the Imagineers are now toying with tossing an ESPN Zone into this location. An idea that — you may recall — was once proposed for the building that WDW's DisneyQuest currently occupies.
As for La Nouba … While this is still a terrific show, demand for tickets for this particular Cirque du Soleil production has fallen off over the past few years. Mostly because people who are visiting the World these days have undoubtedly seen La Nouba on earlier WDW vacations.

Which is why Disney & Cirque officials have begun making noise about possibly putting something new into this 1671-seat showroom. And though nothing official has been announced yet, the general feeling is — once this Montreal-based corporation successfully launches the new show that it's created for the Tokyo Disney Resort in October of this year — Cirque will then turn its attentions back to Orlando.
Mind you, Disney will still be looking for the same sort of terms that it got back in July of 1996 when it signed its first contract with Cirque du Soleil. And given that — over the past 12 years — Cirque has grown into this billion dollar operation … They may now be seeking a far bigger piece of the pie. Which is why this is far from a done deal. At least as far as Mickey's accountants are concerned.
And as if things weren't already complicated enough for Downtown Disney's West Side … Late last week, Disney insiders have told me — with the hope that this gesture might help keep Steve Jobs happy — Bob Iger allegedly asked that space be found at WDW's retail, dining and entertainment district for a new Apple Store.
Copyright 2006 Apple. All Rights Reserved
So when you take into account Jay Rasulo's shifting corporate agenda, the ESPN Zone changing from being DisneyQuest's possible replacement to now supposedly filling the hole that the Virgin Megastore Orlando will leave once it bails out on Downtown Disney, not to mention the one-step-forward, two-steps-back aspect of Disney's on-going negotiations with Cirque du Soleil … It's obviously time for the West Side Waltz. So let the dance begin !
In five years time, once the dust settles on this side of the WDW Resort … It'll be genuinely interesting to see what got built where. In particular where that Apple Store went.

Jens Dahlmann of LongHorn Steakhouse has lots of great tips when it comes to grilling
Sure, for some folks, the Fourth of July is all about fireworks. But for the 75% of all Americans who own a grill or a smoker, the Fourth is our Nation's No. 1 holiday when it comes to grilling. Which is why 3 out of 4 of those folks will spend some time outside today working over a fire.
But here's the thing: Though 14 million Americans can cook a steak with confidence because they actually grill something every week, the rest of us – because we use our grill or smoker so infrequently … Well, let's just say that we have no chops when it comes to dealing with chops (pork, veal or otherwise).
So what's a backyard chef supposed to in a situation like this when there's so much at steak … er … stake? Turn to someone who really knows their way around a grill for advice. People like Jens Dahlmann, the Vice President and Corporate Executive Chef for Darden Restaurant's LongHorn Steakhouse brand.
Given that Jens' father & grandfather were chefs, this is a guy who literally grew up in a kitchen. In his teens & twenties, Dahlmann worked in hotels & restaurants all over Switzerland & Germany. Once he was classically trained in the culinary arts, Jens then jumped ship. Well, started working on cruise ships, I mean.
Anyway … While working on Cunard's Sea Goddess, Dahlmann met Sirio Maccioni, the founder of Le Cirque 2000. Sirio was so impressed with Jens' skills in the kitchen that he offered him the opportunity to become sous-chef at this New York landmark. After four years of working in Manhattan, Dahlmann then headed south to become executive chef at Palm Beach's prestigious Café L'Europe.
Jens Dahlmann back during his Disney World days
And once Jens began wowing foodies in Florida, it wasn't all that long 'til the Mouse came a-calling. Mickey wanted Dahlmann to shake things up in the kitchen over at WDW's Flying Fish Café. And he did such a good job with that Disney's Boardwalk eatery the next thing Jens knew, he was then being asked to work his magic with the menu at the Contemporary Resort's California Grill.
From there, Dahlmann had a relatively meteoric rise at the Mouse House. Once he became Epcot's Food & Beverage general manager, it was only a matter of time before he wound up as the executive chef in charge of this theme park's annual International Food & Wine Festival. Which – under Jens' guidance – experienced some truly explosive growth.
"When I took on Food & Wine, that festival was only 35 days long and had gross revenues of just $5.5 million. When I left Disney in 2016, Food & Wine was now over 50 days long and that festival had gross revenues of $22 million," Dahlmann admitted during a recent sit-down. "I honestly loved those 13 years I spent at Disney. When I was working there, I learned so much because I was really cooking for America."
And it was exactly that sort of experience & expertise that Darden wanted to tap into when they lured Jens away from Mickey last year to become LongHorn Steakhouse's new Vice President and Corporate Executive Chef. But today … Well, Dahlmann is offering tips to those of us who are thinking about cooking steak tips for the Fourth.

"When you're planning on grilling this holiday, if you're looking for a successful result, the obvious place to start is with the quality of the meat you plan on cooking for your friends & family. If you want the best results here, don't be cheap when you go shopping. Spend the money necessary for a fresh filet or a New York strip. Better yet a Ribeye, a nice thick one with good marbling. Because when you look at the marbling on a steak, that's where all the flavor happens," Jens explained. "That said, you always have to remember that — the higher you go with the quality of your meat — the less time you're going to want that piece of meat to spend on the grill."
And speaking of cooking … Before you even get started here, Jens suggests that you first take the time to check over all of your grilling equipment. Making sure that the grill itself is first scraped clean & then properly oiled before you then turn up the heat.
"If you're working with a dirty grill, when you go to turn your meat, it may wind up sticking to the grill. Or maybe those spices that you've just so carefully coated your steak with will wind up sticking to the grill, rather than your meat," Dahlmann continued. "Which is why it's always worth it to spend a few minutes prior to firing up your grill properly cleaning & oiling it."
And speaking of heat … Again, before you officially get started grilling here, Jens says that it's crucial to check your temperature gauges. Make sure that your char grill is set at 550 (so that it can then properly handle the thicker cuts of meat) and your flattop is set at 425 (so it can properly sear thinner pieces of meat).
Okay. Once you've bought the right cuts of quality meat, properly cleaned & oiled your grill, and then made sure that everything's set at the right temperature ("If you can only stand to hold your hand directly over the grill for two or three seconds, that's the right amount of heat," Dahlmann said), it's now time to season your steaks.
"Don't be afraid to be bold here. You can't be shy when it comes to seasoning your meat. You want to give it a nice coating. Largely because — if you're using a char grill — a lot of that seasoning is just going to fall off anyway," Jens stated. "It's up to you to decide what sort of seasoning you want to use here. Even just some salt & pepper will enhance a steak's flavor."
Then – according to Dahlmann – comes the really tough part. Which is placing your meat on the grill and then fighting the urge to flip it too early or too often.
"The biggest mistake that a lot of amateur cooks make is that they flip the steak too many times. The real key to a well-cooked piece of meat is just let it be, "Jens insisted. "Of course, if you're serving different cuts of meat at your Fourth of July feast, you always want to put your biggest thickest steak on the grill first. If you're also cooking a New York Strip, you want to put that one on a few minutes later. But after that, just let the grill do its job and flip your meat a total of three or four times, once every three minutes or so."
Of course, the last thing you want to do is overcook a quality piece of meat. Which is why Dahlmann suggests that – when it comes to grilling steaks – if you're going to err, err on the side of undercooking.
"You can always put a piece of meat back on the grill if it's slightly undercooked. When you over-cook something, all you can do then is start over with a brand-new piece of meat," Jens said. "Just be sure that you're using the correct cut of meat for the cooking result you're aiming for. If someone wants a rare or medium rare steak, you should go with a thicker cut of steak. If one of your guests wants their steak cooked medium or well, it's best to start with a thinner cut of meat."
As you can see, the folks at Longhorn take grilling steaks seriously. How seriously? Just last week at Darden Corporate Headquarters in Orlando, seven of these brand's top grill masters (who – after weeks of regional competitions – had been culled from the 491 restaurants that make up this chain) competed for a $10,000 prize in the Company's second annual Steak Master Series. And Dahlmann was one of the people who stood in Darden's test kitchens, watching like a hawk as each of the contestants struggled to prepare six different dishes in just 20 minutes according to Longhorn Steakhouse's exacting standards.
"I love that Darden does this. Recognizing the best of the best who work this restaurant," Jens concluded. "We have a lot of people here who are incredibly knowledgeable & passionate when it comes to grilling."

Brattleboro's Strolling of the Heifers is a sincere if somewhat surreal way to spend a summer's day in Vermont
Some people travel halfway 'around the planet so that they can then experience the excitement of the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona. If you're more of a Slow Living enthusiast (as I am), then perhaps you should amble to Brattleboro, VT. Where – over the first weekend in June – you can then join a herd of cow enthusiasts at the annual Strolling of the Heifers.
Now in its 16th year, this three-day long event typically gets underway on Friday night in June with a combination block party / gallery walk. But then – come Saturday morning – Main Street in Brattleboro is lined with thousands of bovine fans.
They've staked out primo viewing spots and set up camp chairs hours ahead of time. Just so these folks can then have a front row seat as this year's crop of calves (which all come from local farms & 4-H clubs) are paraded through the streets.
Viewed from curbside, Strolling of the Heifers is kind of this weird melding of a sincere small town celebration and Pasadena's Doo Dah Parade. Meaning that – for every entry that actually acknowledged this year's theme (i.e. "Dance to the Moosic") — …
… there was something completely random, like this parade's synchronized shopping cart unit.
And for every piece of authentic Americana (EX: That collection of antique John Deere tractors that came chugging through the city) …
… there was something silly. Like – say – a woman dressed as a Holstein pushing a baby stroller through the streets. And riding in that stroller was a pig dressed in a tutu.
And given that this event was being staged in the Green Mountain State & all … Well, does it really surprise you to learn that — among the groups that marched in this year's Strolling of the Heifers – was a group of eco-friendly folks who, with their chants of "We're Number One !," tried to persuade people along the parade route not to flush the toilet after they pee. Because – as it turns out – urine can be turned into fertilizer.
And speaking of fertilizer … At the tail end of the parade, there was a group of dedicated volunteers who were dealing with what came out of the tail end of all those cows.
This year's Strolling of the Heifers concluded at the Brattleboro town common. Where event attendees could then get a closer look at some of the featured units in this year's parade…
… or perhaps even pet a few of the participants.
But as for the 90+ calves who took part in the 2017 edition of Strolling of the Heifers, once they reached the town common, it was now time for a nosh or a nap.
Elsewhere on the common, keeping with this year's "Dance to the Moosic" theme, various musical groups performed in & around the gazebo throughout the afternoon.
While just across the way – keeping with Brattleboro's tradition of showcasing the various artisans who live & work in the local community – some pretty funky pieces were on display at the Slow Living Exposition.
All in all, attending Strolling of the Heifers is a somewhat surreal but still very pleasant way to spend a summer's day in Vermont. And that's no bull.
Well, that could be a bull. To be honest, what with the wig & all, it's kind of hard to tell.

Looking to make an authentic Irish meal for Saint Patrick's Day? If so, then chef Kevin Dundon says not to cook corned beef & cabbage
Let's at least start on a positive note: Celebrated chef, author & TV personality Kevin Dundon – the man that Tourism Ireland has repeatedly chosen as the Face of Irish Food – loves a lot of what happens in the United States on March 17th.
"I mean, look at what they do in Chicago on Saint Patrick's Day. They toss all of this vegetable-based dye into the Chicago River and then paint it green for a day. That's terrific," Kevin said.
But then when it comes to what many Americans eat & drink on St. Paddy's Day (i.e., a big plate of corned beef and cabbage. Which is then washed down with a mug of green beer) … Well, that's where Dundon has to draw the line.

"Green beer? No real Irishman would be caught dead drinking that stuff," Kevin insists. "And as for eating corned beef & cabbage … That's not actually authentic Irish fare either. Bacon and cabbage? Sure. But corned beef & cabbage was something that the Irish only began eating after they'd come to the States to escape the Famine. And even then these Irish-Americans only began serving corned beef & cabbage to their friends & family because they had to make do with the ingredients that were available to them at that time."
And thus begins the strange tale of how corned beef & cabbage came to be associated with the North American celebration of Saint Patrick's Day celebration. Because – according to Dundon – beef just wasn't all that big a part of the Irish diet back in the 19th century.
To explain: Back in the Old Country, cattle – while they were obviously highly prized for the milk & cheese that they produced – were also beasts of burden. Meaning that they were often used for ploughing the fields or for hauling heavy loads. Which is why – back then — these animals were rarely slaughtered when they were still young & healthy. If anything, land owners liked to put a herd of cattle on display out in one of their pastures because that was then a sign to their neighbors that this farm was prosperous.
"Whereas pork … Well, everybody raised pigs back then. Which is why pork was a staple of the Irish diet rather than beef," Dundon continued.
So if that's what people actually ate back in the Old Country, how then did corned beef & cabbage come to be so strongly associated with Saint Patrick's Day in the States.? That largely had to do with where the Irish wound up living after they arrived in the New World.
"When the Irish first arrived in America following the Great Famine, a lot of them wound up living in the inner city right alongside the Germans & the Jews, who were also recent immigrants to the States. And while that farm-fresh pork that the Irish loved wasn't readily available, there was brisket. Which the Irish could then cure by first covering this piece of meat with corn kernel-sized pieces of rock salt – that's how it came to be called corned beef. Because of the sizes of the pieces of rock salt that were used in the curing process – and then placing all that in a pot of water with other spices to soak for a few days."
And as for the cabbage portion of corned beef & cabbage … Well, according to Kevin, in addition to buying their meat from the kosher delis in their neighborhood, the Irish would also frequent the stores that the German community shopped in. Where – thanks to their love of sauerkraut (i.e., pickled cabbage) – there was always a ready supply of cabbage to be had.
"So when you get right down to it, it was the American melting pot that led to corned beef & cabbage being found in the Irish-American cooking pot," Dundon continued. "Since they couldn't find or didn't have easy access to the exact same ingredients that they had back in Ireland, Irish-Americans made do with what they could find in the immediate vicinity. And what they made was admittedly tasty. But it's not actually authentic Irish fare."
Mind you, what Kevin serves at Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant at Disney Springs (which – FYI – Orlando Magazine voted as the area's best restaurant back in 2014) is nothing if not authentic. Dundon and his team at this acclaimed gastropub pride themselves on making traditional Irish fare and then contemporized it.

"Take – for example – what we serve here instead of corned beef & cabbage. Again, because it was pork – rather than beef – that was the true staple of the Irish diet back then, what we offer instead is a loin of bacon that has been glazed with Irish Mist. That then comes with colcannon potatoes. Which is this traditional Irish dish that's made up of mashed potato that have had some cabbage & bacon mixed through it," Kevin enthused. "This heavenly ham – that's what we actually call this traditional Irish dish at Raglan Road, Kevin's Heavenly Ham – also includes some savory cabbage with a parsley cream sauce as well as a raisin cider jus. It's simple food. But because of the basic ingredients – and that's the real secret of Irish cuisine. That our ingredients are so strong – the flavors just pop off the plate."
Which brings us to the real challenge that Dundon and the Raglan Road team face every day. Making sure that they actually have all of the ingredients necessary to make this traditional-yet-contemporized Irish fare to those folks who frequent this Walt Disney World favorite.
"Take – for example – the fish we serve here. We only used cold water fish. Salmon, mussels and haddock that have been hauled out of the Atlantic, the ocean that America and Ireland share," Kevin stated. "Not that there's anything wrong with warm water fish. It's just that … Well, it doesn't have the same structure. It's a softer fish, which doesn't really fit the parameters of Irish cuisine. And if you're going to serve authentic food, you have to be this dedicated when it comes to sourcing your ingredients.

And if you're thinking of perhaps trying to serve an authentic Irish meal this year, rather than once again serving corned beef & cabbage at your Saint Patrick's Day Feast … Well, back in September of last year, Mitchell Beazley published "The Raglan Road Cookbook: Inside America's Favorite Irish Pub." This 296-page hardcover not only includes the recipe for Kevin's Heavenly Ham but also it tells the tale of how this now-world-renown restaurant wound up being built in Orlando.
On the other hand, if you happen to have to the luck of the Irish and are actually down at The Walt Disney World Resort right now, it's worth noting that Raglan Road is right in the middle of its Mighty St. Patrick's Day Festival. This four day-long event – which includes Irish bands and professional dancers – stretches through Sunday night. And in addition to all that authentic Irish fare that Dundon and his team are cooking up, you also sample the fine selection of beers & cocktails that this establishment's four distinct antique bars (each of which are more than 130 years old and were imported directly from Ireland) will be serving. Just – As ucht Dé (That's "For God's Sake" in Gaelic) – don't make the mistake of asking the bartender there for a mug of green beer.
"Why would anyone willingly drink something like that?," Dundon laughed. "I mean, just imagine what their washroom will look like the morning after."

C/C++ programmable microprocessor module based on a 40 MHz, 16-bit CPU (Am186ES, AMD). Ideal for industrial process control and high-speed data acquisition. In addition to offering a 16-bit external data bus, the AE86 supports on-board 512 KB 16-bit Flash and up to 512 KB 16-bit battery-backed SRAM. All chips are surface-mounted.
In addition to offering a 16-bit external data bus, the AE86 supports on-board 512 KB 16-bit Flash and up to 512 KB 16-bit battery-backed SRAM. All chips are surface-mounted. The on-board Flash can be easily programmed in the field via serial link using the ACTF kit. With its 16-bit external data bus, it can normally achieve performance that is almost twice as good as those of the other A-Engine variants based on the Am188ES microprocessor.
Another variant of this family of boards is the A-Engine-86-D (AE86-D). Similar to the AE86-P, the AE86-D is an integrated controller with on-board voltage regulators and serial port drivers. In addition, the primary feature of the AE86-D is that it offers three external 16-bit counters. These counters are ideal for specialized applications that deal with high-frequency external events... such as the output of flow meters.
On the spectrum of performance power for TERN controllers, the AE86 boards would probably be placed right in the middle. On the fewer feature/lower-performance (and lower-cost) side, there are products such as the A-Engine, FlashCore-B, and R-Engine. If you're looking for more processing power in a similar small profile, check out the i386-Engine and 586-Engine.
For Ethernet capability, take a look at the Ethernet-Engine controller.

Q: Unable to call function on prototype I'm not exactly sure what the problem here is... oneTime is an array that only contains "init"; doLoop is an array that only contains "update"; When I try to call the function from oneTime it generates the error Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'init' of undefined. If, in that same spot, I log this to the console, the prototype shows the init function as expected.
The really weird part, to me anyway, is that the functions called in exactly the same way from doLoop execute just fine.
Any ideas?
    State.prototype.run = function() {
        let _that = this;

        }, 1000 / fps);

    // Case 5
        this.run.interval = setInterval(function() {
            for (var a = 0; a < doLoop.length; a++) {
                _that.prototype[doLoop[a]]();

        }, 1000 / fps);
    }

-- EDIT --
Did some more playing around... Cases 1, 2, and 3 all return Cannot read property 'init' of undefined However, Case 4 executes just fine... albeit in a loop. What am I missing here?

The split between the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the government is wide open, with a report claiming the central bank's Governor Urjit Patel is likely to resign. According to official sources Patel is likely to step down amid a fast-worsening relationship between the RBI and the government. The government is reportedly upset with some of the RBI's decisions, including its move to restrict lending by NPA-laden banks under the "prompt corrective action" framework.
It also wants the RBI to transfer some of its reserves to the treasury because it believes that the central bank holds excessive reserves. On October 30, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley publicly criticised the RBI's role during the UPA era, for "looking the other way" as banks lent recklessly. Last week, RBI Deputy Governor Viral Acharya, in a speech, talked about the importance of maintaining the RBI's autonomy, saying any efforts to undermine it would "incur the wrath of financial markets and ignite an economic fire".
Adding fuel to the fire were reports this morning that the government has decided to invoke Section 7, which allows the government to issue directions to the RBI governor "in public interest". The decision, if taken, will become political fodder for the government's opponents. Former finance minister P Chidambaram was quick to point out that the law had never been invoked before.

Q: Locating a Persistent Object in a DXGrid with Server-Mode Enabled I'm using a DXGrid bound to a datasource of XPServerCollectionSource, and the XPServerCollectionSource is connected to a MSSQL database with 100,000+ records.
The point is that when I add a new record to my datasource , I want to locate it in my DXGrid by selecting it, but I don't know how. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
