First two are teacher oriented and not student focused – they are not results orientedLast one focuses on student achievement.
Last point is the difference between data and information.
4. Most slides are taken from thehandout from the Triangle High Five Regional Partnership training, December 14- 15, 2011, held in Raleigh, NC.Training originally conducted by Dr. Rick and Becky DuFour.
9. The Crux of Work in a PLCThe heart of work in a PLC is when educatorscollectively analyze evidence of student learning to:Inform individual professional practiceImprove a team's ability to achieve its SMARTgoalsIntervene on behalf of individual studentsThe other steps on the PLC journey aredesigned to help teams engage in thisessential work.
10. Professional Learning Communities Are they based on…  Adherence to core principals OR individual autonomy?  Strong administrative leadership OR teacher empowerment?  Recognition and celebration of current efforts and achievements OR discontent with the status quo? Approaching school improvement with a sense of urgency OR demonstrating the patience to sustain an improvement initiative over the long haul?
12. Simultaneous Loose AND Tight School CulturesSimultaneous loose and tight cultures establish clear parameters and priorities that enable individuals to work within established boundaries in a creative and autonomous way. They are characterized by "directed empowerment" or what Marzano and Waters refer to as "defined autonomy" – freedom to act and to lead within clearly articulated boundaries.
13. Group DiscussionShare with a partner how you create a simultaneously loose and tight school culture at your school. Give a specific example.
24. Why Common Assessments? Informs individual teacher practice – provides teachers with a basis of comparison regarding the achievement of their students so they can see strengths and weaknesses of their teaching  Team capacity – collaborative teacher teams are able to identify and address problem areas in their program Collective response – helps teams and the school create timely, systematic interventions and enrichment for students.
25. Why Common Assessments?Common formative assessments provide the most powerful stimulus for changing adult practice.To change schools we must change adult practice.
26. Keys to Formative Assessments To determine if an assessment is formative ask the following questions:1. Is it used to identify students who are experiencing difficulty in their learning?2. Are students who are having difficulty provided with additional time and support for learning?
27. Keys to Formative Assessments3. Are students given an additional opportunity to demonstrate their learning?4. Do teachers use the results to inform and improve their individual and collective professional practice?
29. Two Essentials of Performance Based Assessments1. Can we agree on the criteria by which we will judge the quality of student work?2. Can we apply those criteria consistently (inter-rater reliability)?
31. We've Got the Data: Now What?
32. Informing & Impacting Professional Practice We must ensure all teachers receive: Timely and frequent information on the achievement of their students,  In meeting an agreed-upon standard,  On a valid assessment,  In comparison to others.
39. Group Discussion As a table, create a double-bubble map identifying the similarities and differencesbetween a PLC meeting and a team meeting. Be prepared to share-out at the end.
41. The Sequence of Changing Attitudes (including your own) Attitude is shaped by Experience is a result of Behavior Attitude is seven times more difficult to change than behavior, so start by addressing behavior.
50. A Crucial Caution No system of interventions can compensate for weak and ineffective teaching. At the same time a school is working to develop time and support for student learning, it must take steps to create the powerful collaborative teams and common assessments that contribute to adult learning.
52. Critical Corollary Questions If we believe all kids can learn:  What is it we expect them to learn?  How will we know when they have learned it?  How will we respond when they don't learn it? How will we respond when they already know it?

Captured American ISIS Fighter Says He Became Disillusioned by ISIS
By Daniel White
Mohamad Jamal Khweis, an American former ISIS fighter, appeared in an interview after defecting from the group.
In the footage Khweis, the 26-year-old American born son of Palestinian immigrants, claims that he realized he does not agree with the group's ideology after leaving for Europe in December to join.
"I don't see them as good Muslims," the man identified as Khweis said in a heavily edited interview on Kurdistan 24, a local broadcast station. Khweis was captured by the Kurds after fleeing from the ISIS stronghold of Mosul, where he says he spent only a month after a long journey through Europe, Turkey and into Syria to join ISIS.
Watch footage of the interview above.

The only hardware store that is managed by a woman. The staff is informative, very helpful and the owner will get special order items for you. It's an old fashioned type store, but the staff knows where everything is. The rentals are priced fairly and they also fix windows and do re-screening (same day service).
We have purchased food numerous times. Their fried rice tastes homemade and the garlic chicken was very good. It looks clean and the have a big kitchen. We will continue to use them.
I was there for dinner. Their fried rice was excellent and the Hunan Chicken was good also. It wasn't oily. The prices were moderate, but it was worth it.
Their food is very good. I've had their jerk pork and it is excellent. You get rice, steamed vegetables and home made mac and cheese pie. It's a little pricey, but you can share. The portions are big. I would go back.
Break is served all day. They have fresh coffee, home cooked food during the week and they serve grits. The owner is very friendly and the staff is friendly also. Prices are good and I would go there again.
I've been there for lunch. My friends and I split it three ways. There was lots of food and they have a little salad bar. They have a wide variety of naad. Prices are good and you can eat in or take-out.
I have been there lunchtime. Their burgers and chicken sandwiches are fresh and savory. Their french fries and onion rings are very good also. Make room for their milkshakes. They're excellent. The prices are reasonable. I would definitely continue going there.
I have been there numerous times and the bakery goods are fresh.
I recently bought a 3 piece sofa set from them. If you come in with a brand and style number, they will give you a good price. The men in the store know their stuff and the wait time for delivery was reasonable. The guys that delivered the furniture were just as nice. I would definitely recommend this store.
I have been here numerous times for dinner. The food is excellent and the service has always been good. They have an extensive menu and a price fixe also. Prices are reasonable. I would definitely go back.


Medium-sized trees have met their match.
Works on medium-sized trees up to 4"
Removing small- to medium-sized trees from your cabin or home yard is a pain. We all know it and we all hate doing it. You can try to wrap a chain around it and pull, but the tree simply bends and the chain slides off. You can spend hours digging out the roots to pull it out, but then you get to deal with shoulder and back pain all night long. Brush Grubber thought this whole process was ridiculous, and they came up with the Brush Grubber Heavy Duty. Capable of pulling out trees and brush up to 4" in diameter from the ground…roots and all. It locks onto the tree using 16 gripping teeth and a spring-loaded jaw. The teeth are specifically designed to give you an incredibly strong and secure hold. It does this by getting tighter and tighter with each pull. To provide a more secure hold and avoid debarking the tree, the two grip pads are capable of rotating a full 360º. Whether you are pulling Buckthorn, prickly ash or other stubborn brush, the Brush Grubber Heavy Duty has you covered with an undisputed grip.
Permanently removes buckthorn, prickly ash and other stubborn brush.
Grab ahold, pull and order today!
Brush Grubber Heavy Duty is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 13.
Rated 5 out of 5 by hmp7623 from Exactly what I wanted did the job just right! Good heavy duty grabber! It grabbed and pulled mesquite with 8-10 roots up and never lost grip. Don't get to big a one for small trees as the jaws will be too big. My mesquites are 4-6 ft tall and have a single root trunk of about 1-2 inch diameter and this model is almost too big. but it works great. An ATV will not pull out a 4 ft mesquite bush with roots 8 feet long, had to use tractor with 4wd in soft sand!
Rated 2 out of 5 by dsmith from Bent on first pull Followed instructions, 3 inch tree and it bent. took up the slack in the chain and started to pull, the tree came out with its roots. Bent so bad it can't be used again.
Rated 5 out of 5 by OafDawg from Nice price! This thing is a beast! Hook the chain up to the back of Mahindra Max 28, the Grubber to the tree, and drive away. Out come those pesky mulberry and sweet gum trees! And SG has the lowest price around for the Grubber.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MIKE from Have not used product yet but it is a more sturdy item than I had anticipated.
Rated 4 out of 5 by RICHARD J from Solid, heavy duty tool. Works great.
Clear up the simple way.


Bub & Bob is a Bubble Bobble clone.
Both SIT and SITX files are present here, if you're using Mac OS 8.6 or higher, use Stuffit Expander 7.03 (with Stuffit Standard) to unstuff SITX archives. If you have anything below that, use the regular SIT archive. DMG and Zip are for Mac OS X only.
Downloads 1 and 2 are the original Bub and Bob, version 1.7.3, the documentation says (if I recall) Mac OS 8 up to Mac OS 9.2.2.
Downloads 3 and 4 are extra third party levels for use with the original Bub and Bob.
Downloads 5/6/7 is the final version of Bub and Bob 2 0.981, Carbonized for use with Mac OS 8.6 up to Mac OS X.
Download 8 is Bub and Bob X 1.1.2 for Mac OS X only.
Download 9 was put up by the original creator of the page, and I have no idea if it's an earlier version of the original Bub and Bob, or if it's just emulator ready.
As a note, the start screen for Bub and Bob 2 under Mac OS 9(.2.2) does not work properly, however, this can be alleviated by just using the menu at the top and going from there, provided you kill full screen and run it in a window. This issue doesn't show up in Mac OS X (10.4.11 as tested), however. Why this happens is unknown.
Version 1.2 doesn't let you bounce up the walls on breaking bubbles either ... maybe I'm just misremembering from another version of the Bubble Bobble game.
Use Bub & Bob X 1.2 version, you can bounce up.
The Bub & Bob X 1.1.2 version works in macOS X Sierra, although possibly runs a bit too quickly on my Mac Mini, but the game isn't as good as the original version. The collision detection is a bit off and it's far more difficult (impossible?) to use bubbles bounce off the top of the screen to get back to the bottom. Plus I'm almost certain you used to be able to bounce up using breaking bubbles against the side of the screen, but that doesn't work in this version either.
Can't find at all a serial for the latest MAC OS X release, can someone share his purchased key back in the day ? I remember there was also a cracked version on torrents site long time ago but can't get it anymore. Thanks a lot!
Thanks a bundle for this, one of my favorites as a kid..
but bub and bob 2 uses bub and bob x's serial number. . .
So, a perfect MacintoshGarden candidate!
Well, although this *MIGHT* not be considered abandonware, this is a great piece of software.
If you want to be safe, you should donate to mcsebi before using the serial.
This is now a disk image, ready to use in emulators.
Thank you for uploading at all.


Amid the towering mountains and wide valleys of Torngat Mountains National Park, polar bears and caribou roam beside deep fjords as icebergs and glaciers brush against some of the earth's oldest rocks. The spectacular wilderness of this park is home to a wide array of arctic flora and fauna, inspiring local Inuit and researchers to work together to learn from the land. Experience the rich stories of the natural world in this special place and discover the wonders of healthy, thriving Arctic ecosystems.
Enjoy a half-day zodiac tour of up-close visits with majestic icebergs and learn where they came from and where they are going. Accompanied by Parks Canada staff and an Inuit Bear Guard, spot polar bears roaming the rocky shores of the outlying islands of the park on their hunt for food. Along the journey, expect to see seabirds, seals and whales, learn all the local Inuttitut names, and their importance to Inuit culture.
Rain or shine, join staff on a half-day moderate hike near the Torngat Mountains Base Camp and Research station to appreciate the northern flora. Get close to the small arctic flowers, plants and insects of this tundra climate and discover how they have adapted their amazing survival techniques to this northern landscape. Identify key plants of the region – in English and Inuttitut – and learn about their traditional Inuit uses.
The towering mountains and sweeping fjords of the park represent a rich and unique geological history. Discover the hidden stories beneath your feet on a half-day excursion by zodiac that will allow you to walk on ancient pieces of the Earth's Mantle. Geologists are on a search to find the oldest rocks in the world here in the Torngat Mountains, and some areas have been recorded as being over 3.9 billion years old! Along with a light interpretive hike, staff and visitors will savour a traditional Inuit shore lunch of freshly caught Arctic Char.

Q: How to iterate through all rows and save the data I am working on a Python script to do some steps.
Right now everything is working except the part that it has to go through all table rows and save each line as a JSON object. The problem is: It only saves the last line. So it's not saving the previous lines. I know where is the problem but don't know how to fix.
Here is the code:
url = 'http://website.com/group1.html'
htmlFile= urlopen(urlGroup1)
soup= BeautifulSoup(htmlGroup1, 'html.parser')

table = soup2.find_all("table", {"class": "sortable employeeList result-table"})[0]
rows = table.find_all('tr')
Filegroup1 = open('group1.csv', 'wt+')
Datagroup1 = csv.writer(Filegroup1)
jsonFilePath = r'group1.json'
def make_json(Filegroup1, jsonFilePath):
    data2 = {}
    with open('group1.csv', encoding='utf-8') as csvf:
        csvReader = csv.DictReader(csvf)
        for rows in csvReader:
            data2 = rows

    with open(jsonFilePath, 'w', encoding='utf-8') as jsonf:
        jsonf.write(simplejson.dumps([data2], indent=4))

try:
    for row in rows:
        FilteredRow = []
        for cell in row.find_all(['td', 'th']):
            FilteredRow.append(cell.get_text().strip())
        Datagroup1.writerow(FilteredRow)
finally:
    Filegroup1.close()
    make_json(Filegroup1, jsonFilePath)

The issue is here:
for rows in csvReader:
    data2 = rows

If I change it to the following, it will work!! But it will group each object by Employee ID. Which I don't want that.
for rows in csvReader:
    key = rows['Employee Name']
    data3[key] = rows


Member Welcome, Introduce yourself to the community.
This is an excellent website and community board. I am so glad I found it!
This is an interesting web site and an informative board. I'm sure I'll find myself back here often.
Please take a moment to introduce yourself to the Highlander Radio Community!
Just wanted to take a minute and WELCOME! all our new members. As of this morning we have hit the 20 member mark and the group is growing more over the last few days. Our newest members over the last few days stop in and welcome them in to our growing group.
So I'm a dreamer. But dreams do come true.
If everyone got thier friends on board it could happen.
Thanks for giving us this new forum! I accidentally stumbled upon Scottish Radio a few days ago, and we have been listening to it ever since! I am of Scottish Highlands descent on both sides of my family (my fathers family are Stewarts and my mothers family are Taylors). My children have been studying about Great Britain at school, so this has all been very timely. I tell them that the British Isles are not just one big group of islands like Hawaii, but are comprised of several countries, each with their own unique history and culture. As you can tell, my teaching background will never leave me. I am no longer in the classroom, but I still enjoy the adventure of education.
I will warn everyone from the very beginning that I am known to be somewhat opinionated, and I really do enjoy sound, logical debates! I do not pick fights, but neither do I walk away from one!
You sure you want to dive into all of the discussions? Some of them are pretty wild. For instance KYLassie mentioned a picture from Electric Scotland that looked like her Uncle Joe and boy did we have fun with that picture. It started with me actually posting the picture then totally going wild with him and editing a set of torn jeans for him and a rebel tee-shirt it got pretty wild. But was allot of fun and good pratice for me with overlapping graphics and such.
Hi Talisker and welcome. Hope to see you often we have allot of great fun out here.
Thanks for letting me know you've added this forum. Use it all the time in connection with a list I own. Thanks again!
Just wanted to take a minute and welcome our newest members.
And of course I can't forget our new fearless leader. I know Sir Robert the Bruce you're asking yourself which way did they go which way did they go.
Not saying it couldn't happen in fact I would love to see it myself that's why I link to Pauls forums whenever possible off my website so he gets the traffic and we don't compete against each other. We'll get there. Just a matter of how long it will take hopefully sooner then later.
Wow, I leave the forum for a few weeks to work on the website and I come back and it is full of life!!!!
Just a great big welcome to all of the people that have posted on this topic and also a big thanks for your very kind comments! Hope you are enjoying the music, the forum and the website! I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts and look forward to getting to know you better over the next few months.
It seems we really have a great group of people here and I can't wait until I have more time to really dive into some of these discussions!
Thanks again for your continued support!!
I would like to welcome everyone to the Highlander Message Boards. This is the place to talk about anything and everything! We have just installed the software today, so as you can see we really do not have a whole lot of posts. To get things started, perhaps post a message about who you are and what you like about Highlander Radio.
In the meantime, feel free to explore the forum software. I think you will find a ton of nice features that you don't normal see in your regular forum software.
Thanks again for everyones continued support of Highlander Radio and enjoy the message boards!
This sight is cool and I love the music. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to build up the members and or participate in other ways.


We wrote an article on how important balance is for hitting in baseball a little while ago, and I thought I would follow up with some advice for using balance boards.
First, I do think that balance is king when a hitter is at the plate. Just like in pitching however, it's important to note that I'm talking about dynamic balance. This means that hitters need to be balanced while in motion.
I think one of the big mistakes that youth coaches in particular make, is that they recognize the importance of balance, but go about teaching static balance. In other words, they do a lot of work with their players on how to stand very still and hold their body and heads in one place.
While their goal is valid and important, the approach is problematic. Hitting and pitching are dynamic actions, explosive movements. At least they are when a player is doing them right. So we need to have a balanced hitter, but we need him to be able to use that balance to launch a vicious attack on the baseball.
With that in mind, here's some advice on balance boards for hitting.
We like balance boards because they reinforce the need to have solid balance throughout the swing.
Balance boards also require a player to have properly aligned feet and a straight stride toward the pitcher.
The hitter is forced to keep everything pretty simple, usually this is a good thing.
Hitter cannot have an open stance on a balance board, again potentially removing their natural feel.
Follow us on Twitter for daily updates and free advice!
So in quick summary, we do like balance boards but we urge you to use them on a limited basis. We don't want our hitters to think of a baseball swing as a soft, standing still, activity. We like our kids to swing hard and really work hard to drive the ball into the middle of the outfield.
We have built balance boards before and we recommend that you use one that is wide enough, and long enough, to allow the player some freedom of movement. 12 inches or so wide seems to work great for reinforcing the need for stability and dynamic balance, while still allowing for some rhythm and aggression.
Something that we like a whole lot better is the tri-fold balance beam that Oates Specialties carries. This can be used to do all kinds of workouts in the cage and weight room to increase awareness and stability in the lower half. It's great barefoot as well, which we're huge fans of for feel and accelerated movement learning.

'Lord of the Rings' TV Series to Film in New Zealand
3:29 PM PDT 9/17/2019 by Bryn Sandberg
New Zealand Countryside - H 2014
The Amazon show is following in the footsteps of Peter Jackson's feature films.
Amazon's new Lord of the Rings television series is laying down roots in New Zealand.
The upcoming show, based on J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy novels, has already started preproduction in the country that was also home to the feature films. Production in Auckland is expected to begin in the coming months.
Landing the expensive streaming series represents a significant win for New Zealand. Not only did Amazon pay around $250 million for the global rights to the property, insiders have estimated that the total spend for the project could hit $1 billion, once production budgets, visual effects and the cast and creative teams are accounted for.
"As we searched for the location in which we could bring to life the primordial beauty of the Second Age of Middle-earth, we knew we needed to find somewhere majestic, with pristine coasts, forests, and mountains, that also is a home to world-class sets, studios and highly skilled and experienced craftspeople and other staff," showrunners and executive producers J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay said Tuesday in a statement. "We're happy that we are now able to officially confirm New Zealand as our home for our series based on stories from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings."
Added the pair: "We are grateful to the people and the government of New Zealand and especially Auckland for supporting us during this preproduction phase. The abundant measure of Kiwi hospitality with which they have welcomed us has already made us feel right at home, and we are looking forward to deepening our partnership in the years to come."
Set in Middle-earth, the TV adaptation of the iconic property will explore new storylines preceding Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring. The theatrical adaptations, directed by Peter Jackson, earned a combined gross of nearly $6 billion worldwide and garnered a combined 17 Academy Awards, including a best picture Oscar.
The new series will see J.A. Bayona (Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom) direct the first two episodes and also serve as executive producer, alongside his partner Belén Atienza. Other exec producers include Lindsey Weber (10 Cloverfield Lane), Bruce Richmond (Game of Thrones), Gene Kelly (Boardwalk Empire), Sharon Tal Yguado, Gennifer Hutchison (Breaking Bad), Jason Cahill (The Sopranos) and Justin Doble (Stranger Things).

'Rapid growth' as East Midlands Hub marks one-year anniversary
Hope for Justice is celebrating one year since the launch of our UK East Midlands Hub.
The hub opened in this region following strategic analysis, which found significant gaps in service provision in the East Midlands over the issues of modern-day slavery and human trafficking.
Prior to opening our Hub, we had been providing training to businesses, police and local authorities across this region.
Since establishing a base in the East Midlands, we have carried out further training, prevention initiatives, outreach, referrals of potential victims of human trafficking, community engagement and reform work.
Shaista Jakhura, Lead Community Engagement Specialist, said: "Over the past 12 months, we have seen rapid growth in every aspect of our work. We have been responding to the severe exploitation in the garment industry. We have referred, signposted and supported potential victims of modern-day slavery and human trafficking. We are also empowering communities to prevent exploitation from happening in the first place.
"We are a unique organisation, working across all sectors of society to ensure a united approach and response to this complex issue. We're thrilled with what we have accomplished in one year, but there is much more to be done. We're determined to continue our efforts until we see an end to exploitation – for good."
Over the past 12 months, our East Midlands Hub has received 111 referrals and inquiries, which our team has actioned, investigated and assisted with, or signposted to relevant agencies and organisations.
In addition to this, we have reached more than 2,500 members of the public and professionals in the region through our work.
We are working collaboratively with Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire Modern Slavery partnerships, with diverse communities, hard to reach communities, universities, factory owners, fashion brands such as Boohoo and ASOS, the GLAA, HMRC, community organisations, faith organisations, academics, law enforcement, local authorities and more.
The hub has also supported research, led by the Rights Lab at the University of Nottingham. We have engaged with dozens of people working within Leicester's garment industry, listening to their lived experience to understand what can be done to improve their lives and working conditions.
We have also supported former High Court judge Sir Brian Leveson with evidence after Boohoo appointed him to oversee the overhaul of its supply chain.
Further to this, we have delivered training at a factory to give workers and other key personnel greater awareness of the issue of modern-day slavery, and to highlight their rights. If successful, the intention is for this pilot to be rolled out to other factories.
Paul McAnulty, our UK & Europe Programme Director, said: "I'm incredibly proud of the positive outcomes that survivors of slavery have received through the work of our East Midlands team. Our community engagement hub model values the individuality of each survivor, and supports them towards justice and their chosen futures. Our incredible team of compassionate and dedicated staff hold the survivor at the heart of all we do, and feel passionately that any mechanism of intervention and support needs to be appropriate and proportionate to the needs of each individual. Our approach involves supporting survivors to overcome the many common barriers to engagement, and finding pathways to freedom that are sustainable.
"We cannot achieve this in isolation, and are hugely indebted to the very warm welcome our team has received from partners in the East Midlands who have forged robust referral pathways into and from our teams. Wherever we operate, we are building communities' resilience to slavery, helping to strengthen collaborative, multi-agency responses, building capacity into wider services and partnering with organisations. We are proud to be improving standards of advocacy and care for survivors wherever possible."

He made his international test debut for Australia at the age of 23, coming off the bench against South Africa on 23 August during the 1997 Tri Nations Series. He made his first start on his second cap almost a year later. He took over the position of number 8 from fellow Tongan Willie Ofahengaue in 1998 in Australia's record 76–0 win over England. After helping Australia qualify for the 1999 Rugby World Cup in September 1998, he played a vital role in winning the Webb Ellis Cup for Australia's second time. He played in 4 of their matches, scoring against Romania in the opening game,
and playing the full 80 minutes in the final.

He helped Australia to their first ever Tri-nations title in 2000, which saw the Wallabies win their third consecutive Bledisloe Cup title, the first ever time they had done this. In 2001, he helped Australia to their first series win over the British and Irish Lions in over 70 years, playing in all three tests. Later that year he scored the try which beat the All Blacks to retain the Bledisloe Cup, giving his Skipper, John Eales, a perfect send off, as this was his last game for the Wallabies.

After failing to make the 2003 Rugby World Cup squad, Kefu signed with Kubota Spears in the Top League in Japan, leaving the Queensland Reds after earning 103 caps for his state. In the six season Kefu was with the Japanese club, Kubota Spears failed to move from the midsection of the table, only getting as high as fifth in the 2009–10 Top League season. Following the 2009–10 season, Kefu retired from playing rugby.

In 2006, Kefu represented the Barbarians, playing against England at Twickenham Stadium, with England winning 46–19.

Coaching career
In 2010 Kefu became head coach of the Sunshine Coast Stingrays, a team in the Queensland Premier League. In his first season in charge, he led the Stingrays to the Senior Championship title, defeating Gold Coast 37–12 in the final. Kefu continued on to coach the Stingrays, but temporarily left the side in 2011 to take up the role of assistant coach for the Tongan national team in preparation for the 2011 Rugby World Cup. He helped Tonga to second in the 2011 IRB Pacific Nations Cup, their best positioning since the tournament was formed in 2006. It saw Tonga earn their first victory over Fiji since 2008, winning 45–21, their largest winning margin over the Flying Fijians. In addition to this, they beat Samoa 29–19, which was their first victory over Manu Samoa since 2007. Their only loss came to Japan going down narrowly 28–27. During the World Cup, Tonga earned two victories, beating Japan 31–18 and beating France 19–14 for the first time since 1999. However, the two wins were not enough to progress Tonga further in the tournament.

In 2012, following Isitolo Maka resignation as Tongan head coach, Kefu acted as interim head coach for the 2012 IRB Pacific Nations Cup. He guided Tonga to a sole victory, beating Japan in Tokyo 24–20. In September 2012, Mana Otai was named the full coach.

Following his leave from the Tongan national team, Kefu became the head coach of his former club Kubota Spears in Japan. They had dropped to the Eastern A League. He had recruited high-profile players including Kurt Morath and Hoani Matenga, and brought in young Japanese players. Kefu led the team to promotion for the 2013–14 Top League season, and in his second year in charge, he led his side to top of Group 2, though failed to make it past the Wildcard play-offs, after losing to NEC Green Rockets 47–10. Unfortunately, in the 2014–15 Top League season, Kubota Spears finished fifth in their group which meant they played in the Promotion and relegation play-offs. They played Kamaishi Seawaves on 14 February 2015, where they secured a 34–5 victory to remain in the Top League for the 2015–16 Top League season. Following another poor season in 2015/16, Kefu left the club at the end of the season.

In August 2016, just three months after being appointed head coach of Tonga, Kefu was named the head coach of Queensland Country for the 2016 National Rugby Championship in Australia. Kefu was only able to lead his side to a single victory during their campaign, coming against finalist and table leaders New South Wales Country Eagles 40–38. This meant Queensland Country finished bottom of the table on 7 points.

Head coach of Tonga
On 6 May 2016, Kefu was announced as the Tongan national team's head coach, replacing Mana Otai after Tonga failed to automatically qualify for the 2019 Rugby World Cup due to finishing fourth in their pool at the 2015 Rugby World Cup. Kefu started his reign as Tongan head coach with a 23–18 loss to Fiji, though Tonga did lead the Fijians 15–0 at half time. A week later, he led his side to a 23–20 loss to Georgia, before going down to Samoa 30–10. Tonga finished last in the 2016 World Rugby Pacific Nations Cup, placing them bottom of the table - putting them in a disadvantage ahead of the 2017 tournament, where they will need to win both matches to qualify for the 2019 Rugby World Cup. Kefu gained his first win against Spain during the 2016 end-of-year internationals, where they won 28–13 in the first ever meeting between the two nations. A week later, Tonga defeated the United States 20–17 before going on to win against Tier 1 side Italy 19–17. This was Tonga's first win over Italy since 1999 and their first win over a Tier 1 nation since beating Scotland in 2012.

In June 2017, Kefu named a squad that included 15 uncapped players in an attempt to increase depth in the national team of players playing in elite rugby in various countries. On 16 June, 7 players earned their debut in Tonga's 24–6 loss to Wales at Eden Park. Two weeks late, Kefu led Tonga into their first home game since 2009 - against Samoa in the first round of the 2017 World Rugby Pacific Nations Cup. Despite a late come back from Samoa, Tonga earned their first victory over Samoa (30–26) since 2011, in a game that included 2 further debutantes. The following week saw Fiji down Tonga for the sixth consecutive time, losing 14–10. Tonga had a promising starts to the End-of-year tour, narrowly losing to invitational side Barbarians, 27–24, in the first ever match between the two sides. Unfortunately, they were unable to continue their form from that match in to their second match on tour, losing to Japan 39–6, a record defeat for the Tongan's against Japan. Tonga's third match on tour ended in a victory, defeating Romania 25–20.

The 2018 World Rugby Pacific Nations Cup saw Tonga maintain their position as the second ranked Pacific Nation behind Fiji. In the opening round of the PNC, Tonga lost to newly invited Georgia 16–15, but went onto to defeat Samoa 28–18 in round 2. Despite there only being two rounds of the PNC, Tonga later went onto to beat Fiji in Lautoka 27–19, in a one-off test match - it was the first time since 2011 that Tonga had defeated Fiji in Fiji. The start of the World Cup year saw Tonga finish in fifth place during the 2019 World Rugby Pacific Nations Cup, winning just once, beating Canada 33–23.

Personal life
Kefu is married to his wife Rachel and they have an adult son and daughter and live in Coorparoo, a suburb of Brisbane.

On 16 August 2021 Kefu and his family were allegedly the victims of a violent home invasion in which all four family members were seriously injured and required surgery. Reportedly the Kefus were at home when three people broke in and a brawl erupted during which Kefu was stabbed in the liver and abdomen. Kefu told reporters that his son showed no fear as he helped him to fight off two of the alleged attackers. "He absolutely went into beast mode," Kefu said. A 15-year-old male was charged with four counts of attempted murder, three counts of assault causing grievous bodily harm and one count each of unlawful use of a motor vehicle, breaking and entering, burglary and deprivation of liberty. This prompted statements of support from the rugby community both in Australia and overseas.

John Wick: Chapter 2 review: "Stunning fights, relentless action and a super-cool Keanu"
By James Mottram
GamesRadar+ Verdict
Not as groundbreaking as its predecessor, but its 'more of the same' mantra will satisfy fans. Stunning fights, relentless action and a super-cool Keanu.

When John Wick (opens in new tab) arrived in 2014, it took everyone by surprise. Delivering a rabbit punch to the action genre's solar plexus, this sharp mix of gun-fu fight choreography and New York noir offered Keanu Reeves yet another career rebirth, just as The Matrix (opens in new tab) did in 1999.
Directed by Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, former stunt doubles who worked with Reeves on that seminal Wachowskis-directed sci-fi, it was the sort of lean, mean actioner that had rarely been seen since John Woo's Hong Kong heyday (The Killer, Hard Boiled).
Picking up where the first film left off, John Wick: Chapter 2 sees Reeves' titular, black-suited hitman still on the rampage. You'll remember this retired assassin they call 'the Boogeyman' was forced to get back in the game after Russian gangsters took a fancy to his Mustang and killed his dog – given to him by his late wife Helen before her untimely demise.
Quite rightly, Chapter 2 starts mid-chase. "John Wick is a man of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will," says Peter Stormare's cigar-chomping syndicate boss, all too aware of Wick's relentless nature and remarkable skill set.
Before the opening credits, Wick has taken down Stormare's drug-smuggling goons in a warehouse, virtually turning his Mustang into scrap metal in the process.
Returning to his chic modernist pad, now occupied by the chocolate pit-bull he picked up from animal rescue in the previous film's finale, Wick re-cements his cache of weapons back into the basement floor when there's a knock at the door. Standing there is another ghost from his violent past, Santino (Riccardo Scamarcio), who gives him a so-called "marker": crime-speak for an offer he can't refuse.
When Wick refuses the hit, Santino brings out the big guns – quite literally, in an explosive set-piece. This being the netherworld Wick operates in, run by a strict series of codes, he has little choice but to take the job – which involves killing Santino's sister Gianna (Claudia Gerini).
Turns out Santino wants her seat at the High Table, a coveted place among a group of elite crime lords bestowed to Gianna by their father. And so, with his Mustang being repaired by John Leguizamo's returning chop-shop owner Aurelio, Wick hotfoots it to Rome.
Arriving in the eternal city, Wick gets tooled up thanks to Peter Serafinowicz's classy gun-seller – and then the fun really starts. Forced to confront literally dozens of guards, Reeves gets to work – above ground in a plush palazzo and in the eerily lit catacombs below. But that's just the beginning of his dilemmas, as Santino turns the tables and casts Wick as an outlaw in a world of outlaws.
With Derek Kolstad back on screenwriting duties, what JW: C2 does well is to expand on the underworld network hinted at in the original. Naturally, we return to the Continental, the swanky Manhattan hotel owned by Ian McShane's suave Winston and overseen by Lance Reddick's all-knowing concierge Charon – a sort of safe haven for hitmen and other organised crime types that doesn't permit killing on the premises.
Here, Kolstad also shows what happens when a hit is put out on someone: tattoo-clad telephone operators take the message, sending it chuntering through old-fashioned suction tubes like something out of Terry Gilliam's Brazil.
Likewise, we get to see more of just how deadly Wick's world is: assassins lurk on every street corner, from violin-playing buskers to a giant sumo wrestler who puts all of Wick's specialist skills to the test.
While Leitch doesn't return as co-director, Stahelski has lost none of his knack for action. Last year's Hardcore Henry (opens in new tab) may have upped the brutality ante but JW: C2 winds you with its intensity – driven by Reeves' remarkable athleticism and some wonderful choreography.
A fight with Gianna's bodyguard (Common) in a subway train is just one of the hugely inventive sequences that prove there's plenty of life (and death) left in the genre yet.
There's also a wry little Matrix reunion between Reeves and Laurence Fishburne, with Morpheus pitching up as a pigeon-fancying overlord to a network of assassin-street-beggars. It sounds weird, and it is – though no stranger than the oddball production design from Kevin Kavanaugh, culminating in a hall-of-mirrors modernist art exhibition called 'Reflections on the Soul' – "to lead you into deeper reflection of the nature of self".
True, John Wick: Chapter 2 doesn't quite hit the heights of the original – partly because the element of surprise when it comes to the fight-work is gone, partly because it lacks the emotional pull of Wick avenging his wife's memory. But as badass B-movies go, this really gets the blood pumping.

New York Rangers Rumors
2012 Free Agency: Rangers, Del Zotto Remain Far Apart On New Contract
By Bryan Winters@BTW8892 Aug 19, 2012, 1:41pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: 2012 Free Agency: Rangers, Del Zotto Remain Far Apart On New Contract
According to Larry Brooks of the NY Post, the New York Rangers and Michael Del Zotto have yet to come close on negotiating a new deal, to keep the 22-year-old defenseman in New York. It was reported that the Rangers are looking to give Del Zotto a multi-year deal that is in the range of $2.2-$2.5 million per season. This ballpark figure is just around what people were expecting Del Zotto to get, but is this what Del Zotto is asking for?
It's tough to say, but considering we almost never hear what the players want, we never truly know for sure. Although, with both sides not being close, and Del Zotto having a breakout season in his contract year, one may suspect he wants a little more, in terms of figures.
However, I wouldn't read too much into this whole mess just yet. The fact of the matter is, a majority of movements are still in holding patterns with the CBA uncertainty. I know players like Max Pacioretty and Wayne Simmonds have signed hefty extensions, but for the most part, not much is going on. Just look at the list of RFA's that still have yet to sign an extension. P.K. Subban, John Carlson, Jamie Benn are just to name a few.


This itinerary will lead you on a voyage of discovery in the valleys of the Oltrepò renowned for their vineyards and their wines.
VALLE VERSA: celebrated for its red and white wines. From Stradella, the town of piano accordions, to Montecalvo Versiggia, international capital of the production of Pinot Nero and home to the Corkscrew Museum, and on to Canevino, travelling in the steps of Saint Columbanus.
VALLE SCUROPASSO: wedged between the Valle Versa and the Valle Coppa, its name comes from the oak and robinia woods that cling to the rocky spurs of the Ligurian Apennines descending towards the vineyards of Rocca de' Giorgi, Montecalvo Versiggia, Montalto Pavese and Pietra de' Giorgi. At the bottom of the valley, where the plain spreads before us, we meet the Via Emilia and Broni, one of the most important towns in the Oltrepò.
VALLE COPPA: the main settlement is Casteggio, scene of the famous battle of 222 B.C., during which the Roman consul Marco Claudio Marcello defeated the Celts. In 218 B.C. after Hannibal had taken control, the town was razed to the ground. This valley which, like the others, is rich with castles and worthful churches, also boasts the picturesque and charming village, Fortunago, which is included in the club of "Borghi più belli d'Italia"- the most beautiful villages in Italy.

Paul Harris Presents Little Man by Paul Harris- Magic trick. Paul Harris, Rod Whitlock and Mark Allen (special thanks to Angelo Carbone) Engineering and Product development by Rod Whitlock A LUMP OF CLAY COMES TO LIFE! You bring out a small gift bag and pull out a standard container of kid's clay. You peel off the lid, pull out a lump of clay and let your audience freely squish, pull and play with it.
You then help the audience mold the clay into a little man or woman! The only reason you help is to insure that his little proportions are correct. YOUR HANDS ARE ALWAYS EMPTY. THERE'S NOTHING INSIDE THE CLAY! A spectator then takes a final bit of clay and shapes it into a tiny clay heart. She warms the heart in her hands... She THINKS SHE MIGHT feel a tiny heart beat. She gently sticks the tiny clay heart onto Little Man's chest.
You then stand the little guy on the flattened empty bag. Someone gently blows on his heart.
Little Man takes his first step! YES, HE'S MOVING FORWARD AND ACTUALLY WALKING... ONE ASTONISHING STEP AT A TIME! This is where you have to see the on-line demo to experience the devastating wonderfulness of it all.

If you questioned why there's no book in either summer vacay scenario to make it perfect, you are our kind of person. Which is why, we make it easy. Verve hands you a summer reading list to match that holiday mood.
Why: We can't stop raving about this one. Borrowing from the ancient Iranian myth of a boy being brought up as a bird, feral child Zal is condemned to the same fate. How he conforms to the real world, does he ever get entirely normal – are some things the book is made of. And then, there's the backdrop of the 9/11 blasts. A cracker of a book!
Why: One of the best writers from the beautiful North-East region of our country, Mamang Dai's books (and poetry) are liberally flavoured with native thoughts and experiences. Besides, there are tribals, missionaries, the mountains, and in the heart of it all, a love story. Must read.
Why: It's Vikram Seth. We take whatever he writes, no questions asked. And it's poetry. This is his new standalone book of poems released after 25 years. Plus, it will get you warmed up to Seth's writing for A Suitable Girl, due 2017.
Why: If there was anyone who doesn't care two hoots about rules, it's Gaiman. In the introduction, he proceeds to explain the rules of putting together a short stories book and then claims to have broken them all. We are glad, though. Thrown into this jumble are poems and stories – magical, real and ugly. With each part you read, you are left baffled by Gaiman's genius.
Why: Because we are lovers of brash books and unapologetic writers. Besides, there's no one else who could get us to read something wherein Patna and style are mentioned in the same breath.
Why: Poachers, ivory trade, an irate calf and an elephant's narrative. The book raises so many questions. And you're left with the feeling you experience when you encounter any man versus nature narrative — nothing surpasses human folly and cruelty.
Why: It's one of our favourite autobiographies. Shah constantly emphasises that he is not a writer but his writing is delightfully quirky. The book highlights his childhood — a lot of which shaped his desire to become an actor, his phase of struggle and his talented wife, Ratna Pathak Shah. The best part — there's no maudlin. His struggle is written about like any other pleasant part of his life.
