Billionaire investor Carl Icahn, looking to turn around his money-losing investment in Oshkosh Corp, nominated a slate of directors for the truck maker's board of directors on Friday.
Icahn, who owns 9.5 percent of Oshkosh's common stock directly and indirectly, sent a letter to the company and its shareholders listing six associates he is nominating: A.B. Krongard, Vincent J. Intrieri, Samuel Merksamer, Jose Maria Alapont, Daniel A. Ninivaggi and Marc F. Gustafson.
The move mirrors Icahn's long-standing pattern of using closely aligned directors to pressure management and increase stock prices. Oshkosh and Icahn have been in discussions for several months about his interest in the company.
Oshkosh had set a deadline of Nov. 6 for shareholders to nominate potential directors. Nominees for the company's board will be voted on at the company's annual meeting in early 2012.
Oshkosh's board currently has 13 members, including two newly elected directors that the company added in July, after Icahn disclosed his Oshkosh ownership stake.
In a press release issued after the market closed Friday, Oshkosh said the company's board of directors will consider the nominations "in due course."
Icahn has owned nearly 10 percent of the Wisconsin company since mid-year, but his interest in Oshkosh attracted added attention last month when he bought a similarly sized stake in Navistar International Corp , an Illinois-based maker of heavy trucks, engines and defense equipment.
As of Friday, the combined value of Icahn's Oshkosh and Navistar holdings was about $500 million. His move to buy considerable stakes in both companies sparked speculation that he could attempt to steer them into a merger. Icahn has met with Navistar management in recent months.
As with Oshkosh, Icahn is focused on gaining more influence at Navistar, which -- at about $3 billion in market capitalization -- exceeds Oshkosh's value by more than $1 billion. In a filing last month, Icahn said he was interested in talking to Navistar specifically about seats on the board, and on Thursday he reported a slight increase in his Navistar holdings.
Navistar signaled a willingness to cooperate with Icahn, extending the deadline for director nominations by a month -- to Nov. 15 from Oct. 18 -- shortly after Icahn first publicly expressed his interested in a seat.
She also said "there are likely significant supply chain and headcount reduction opportunities as well as potential sales synergies (and) engine synergies may exist as well."
Oshkosh's stock has recently traded in the $20 range, well below the $28 to $30 range in which Icahn bought.
Shares of Oshkosh closed Friday's session 3.4 percent higher at $21.11.
While Oshkosh is generally considered one of the nation's top defense suppliers, due particularly to its expertise with four-wheel-drive vehicles, it has been under pressure in 2011 as profit and revenue have slumped. The company has struggled to turn a profit on a key military contract, just as sales of a more profitable vehicle it had been building for the military are falling off.
The company's fourth-quarter profit and revenue exceeded analyst expectations, but Oshkosh lowered its outlook for 2012 due to timing issues of sales in its core defense division.


Abstract: AMS and RF designs done in STEricsson have big analog functionalities and a lot of interaction between analog and digital functionalities. The partitioning of these designs makes them particularly difficult to verify. The most accurate solution would be to simulate the complete design with a spice simulator, however, increasing time to market constraints and circuit complexity make this approach impossible.
As STEricsson is a platform company, models have to be compatible with pure digital tools to simulate all the SOCs platform together.
As a consequence, we decided to use a digital centric methodology with real numbers to model the analog functionality.
This presentation will show how we developed the models to verify most of the design connectivity and functionality using the speed of digital simulators. It will then describe how Questa-ADMS was used to cover the electrical behaviour of the design by reusing the digital on top environment. Examples will be taken from a power management SOC.

In conjunction with my switch to a more proficiency based classroom, I decided to dedicate one of my bulletin boards this year to proficiency levels and the four modes of communication.
The main bulletin board I used for the Listening and Speaking sections, Escuchar y Hablar. For each section, I copied the ACTFL descriptors of a novice learner and a intermediate learning, since these are the ranges my students will be in. I also included the capabilities at Novice-Low, Novice-Mid, and Novice-High for each. In the middle are 3 motivational posters.This bulletin board sits above a counter top in between two side cabinets/closets. So on the side of these cabinets, I covered it with construction paper to extend the bulletin board.
One the sides, are the Writing and Reading sections, Escribir y Leer. As you can see, I still have some work to do on these. But in the meanwhile, Katniss y Los Juegos del Hambre is holding up well on the reading side.
Lastly, at the front of my room are the objectives posted on sentence strips. Each student has a list of the unit objetivos as a checklist, but this is put up for a visual reminder of our goals for the unit. I have them divided into two sections: lenguaje and cultura. Our administrators love seeing objectives posted in the room as well. I can write specific objectives and goals for today's particular lesson on the white board below this sign.

It is SO funny that I found this on pinterest today! We just had a HUGE staff meeting about using standards in the classroom. I'll be using this and adapating. I'm wondering though if you have any ideas for posting state curriculum standards.
Elizabeth, what state are you in?
You might just print each standard on a 8×11 cardstock so you can hang up when you are working on that particular standard.

Candace Parker & Turner Sports Reach Multi-Year Extension
NBA Digital NCAA March Madness NBA on TNT
Parker to Add Podcast Co-Hosting Duties to Her Role as Dynamic Basketball Analyst Across Turner Sports' NBA and NCAA Tournament Coverage
Turner Sports has reached a multi-year extension with Candace Parker, one of the most decorated women's basketball players of all-time, who will continue making full-time contributions as an analyst and commentator for the NBA on TNT, NBA TV and NCAA Tournament coverage. She will also co-host a new podcast alongside Kristen Ledlow that will debut this season. Parker initially joined Turner Sports as a basketball commentator for the 2018-19 NBA season and 2019 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship.
Parker, currently a member of the WNBA's L.A. Sparks, will be an integral part of TNT's NBA coverage, primarily as a studio analyst for the network's Tuesday night telecasts. She will also contribute analysis for NBA TV studio shows, while continuing her role as studio analyst for Turner Sports and CBS Sports' NCAA Tournament coverage.
"I'm so excited to be returning to Turner Sports to work alongside the best teammates in the world," said Parker. "I look forward to building on my experiences and learning, working, growing and most importantly, laughing, while covering a game that I love dearly."
"Candace has quickly become a standout voice for our NBA and NCAA coverage and we're thrilled for her return in this expanded role," said Tara August, SVP, Talent Services and Special Projects, Turner Sports / Bleacher Report. "Candace's love for the game and unique abilities to share her insights in a way that resonates with today's fan are special. We're excited to see her shine across a growing number of shows and platforms."
Parker was selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA Draft by the Los Angeles Sparks in 2008, following a championship career at the University of Tennessee, where she led the Lady Vols to consecutive NCAA Championships in 2007 and 2008. During the 2008-09 WNBA season, she became the first player to earn WNBA MVP and Rookie of the Year honors in the same season.
In 2016, Parker led the L.A. Sparks to a WNBA Championship, in which she was named WNBA Finals MVP. She was named WNBA All-Star Game MVP in 2013, along with being elected to six All-WNBA teams and five All-Star teams. Parker also led Team USA Women's Basketball to back-to-back Olympic gold medals in the 2008 and 2012 Games.

US resumes talks with Taliban in Doha
Washington resumed talks with the Taliban in Qatar on Saturday, both sides said, three months after President Donald Trump abruptly halted diplomatic efforts that could end America's longest war.
In September, the United States and the Taliban had appeared on the verge of signing a deal that would have seen Washington begin withdrawing thousands of troops in return for security guarantees.
It was also expected to pave the way towards direct talks between the Taliban and the government in Kabul and, ultimately, a possible peace agreement after more than 18 years of war.
But that same month, Trump abruptly called the year-long effort "dead" and withdrew an invitation to the insurgents to join secret talks at his US retreat at Camp David after the killing of an American soldier.
"The US rejoined talks today in Doha. The focus of discussion will be reduction of violence that leads to intra-Afghan negotiations and a ceasefire," said the US source briefed on efforts to end almost two decades of war in Afghanistan.
The Taliban spokesperson in Qatar, Suhail Shaheen, confirmed the talks on his Twitter account, saying they had resumed "from where they were broken off".
"Talks revolved around the signing of an agreement and related issues," he wrote.
"Negotiations will resume tomorrow."
Anas Haqqani, brother to the Taliban's deputy leader, participated in the talks, Shaheen confirmed.
Haqqani was released from Afghan government custody in November as part of a prisoner swap that saw an American academic and his Australian colleague freed.
During a surprise visit to a US military base in Afghanistan last week, Trump said the Taliban "wants to make a deal."
Even during the stall in talks, US negotiator Zalmay Khalilzad has in recent weeks made a whistle-stop tour of nations with a stake in Afghan peace, including Pakistan.
Thorny issues
He recently arranged a captive swap in which the Taliban released an American and an Australian academic whom they had held hostage for three years.
The Taliban have until now refused to negotiate with the Afghan government, which they consider an illegitimate regime.
In a nod to concerns raised by Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, the US State Department voiced support for a ceasefire -- a key priority for Kabul before it enters negotiations with the Islamist insurgents.
"Ambassador Khalilzad will rejoin talks with the Taliban to discuss steps that could lead to intra-Afghan negotiations and a peaceful settlement of the war, specifically a reduction in violence that leads to a ceasefire," the State Department said on Wednesday as it announced the resumption of efforts to end the conflict.
Washington had sought to seal a political deal with the Taliban ahead of September's elections in Afghanistan.
An agreement with the Taliban is expected to have two main pillars -- a US withdrawal from Afghanistan and a commitment by the militants not to offer sanctuary to jihadists.
The Taliban's relationship with Al-Qaeda was the main reason for the US invasion nearly 18 years ago.
But the thorny issues of power-sharing with the Taliban, the role of regional powers including Pakistan and India, and the fate of Ghani's administration remain unresolved.
The Taliban, believing they have the upper hand in the war, kept up attacks even while talking to the United States.

Minecraft Dungeons 'Game Ownership Not Established' error fix
Paul Tamburro Tuesday, May 26, 2020
A Minecraft Dungeons Game Ownership Not Established error is preventing players from jumping into the game, with it informing those trying to access it that they 'don't appear to own Minecraft Dungeons on this account.' Despite players having access to the game, they're being informed by the error message that they can't play it, leading to some confusion. So how do you fix this error?
How to fix Minecraft Dungeons Game Ownership Not Established error
The Minecraft Dungeons error is only affecting players who own the Hero Edition of the game, with those who own the standard edition able to access it on launch day (May 26). This is because the Hero Edition is set to launch at 2 AM PST, rather than 1 AM PST like the standard edition.
While many initially believed that the Minecraft Dungeons Hero Edition release time was later as there would be a delay in receiving its special bonus items, it seems that those who pre-ordered the Hero Edition are being made to wait a little longer in general.
As such, Minecraft Dungeons players who are being hit with the Game Ownership Not Established error should be able to play the game soon without receiving the prompt, even if it is strange that those who pre-ordered the Hero Edition are being made to wait an extra hour.
Typically, the only difference between release times for players who order a special edition of a game is that they might receive an early access period. That's the opposite here, but fortunately, one hour isn't a hefty time to wait and Minecraft fans will be able to jump into the co-op RPG sooner rather than later.

LOS ANGELES — Dodgers right-hander Wilmer Font was named Pacific Coast League Pitcher of the Week after racking up the strikeouts in a pair of starts last week for Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Font set an OKC franchise record with 15 strikeouts last Monday, allowing one run on just two hits in seven innings in a win over Sacramento. The right-hander followed that up with 10 more strikeouts on Sunday, allowing three runs in five innings in a no-decision at El Paso.
On the season, Font — who turns 27 on Wednesday -- is 3-3 with a 4.40 ERA and 2.73 FIP in nine starts, with a PCL-leading 73 strikeouts against only 11 walks in 47 innings.
He owns a 37.8% strikeout rate in 2017.
Oklahoma City pitchers have 219 strikeouts over their last 20 games, and on the season lead the Pacific Coast League with 434 strikeouts, averaging 10.1 per game. OKC pitchers also lead the PCL in fewest walks allowed with 103, through Monday.

My Little Corner of the World: And Now, A Quick Transition!
Hello again... unless you're a first timer.... if so, to you I say... what took you so long?!?!?
I did watch a great movie tonight, called Chronicle. It's a "found footage" type movie (like Cloverfield, in a way), and was really well done. Sort of a superheroism-in-real-life study, where three high school guys (a popular jock, a stand-offish intellectual, and a bullied nerd) each stumble upon something that changes them, giving them telekinesis. It's interesting to see how it changes each of them. It's very cool, if you ever happen upon it and want something fun to watch. Very creative.
Let's see... what else? Nothing else! I'm off to bed.
Whoo hoo! Yay! (jumps up and down and claps hands) I've been following on my phone but it won't let me leave comments. I am so excited for you! Now even more people will see how talented you are. Have a wonderful day.
So happy for you Dave :) and super excited!!! YAY!!! You'll do great, just like you did for the first audition!
Congratulations, dude. And best of luck.
I watched Chronicle several months ago, and for days after watching it I kept thinking about the movie. There were some unexplained things, but dang it was a excellent (and moving!) little film. And for the most part it worked well with the first person POV, too. I may have to revisit this one, see if I pick up on anything I missed the first time around.
I'm so stoked - trying not to be nervous. I'll obviously let everyone know how it goes in my next post.
By the way, that competitive eating documentary is finally releasing. I'll update everyone on that as well!
can't wait to hear how this goes! please keep us up to date. break a leg!

EXCLUSIVE investigation: "Refugee" MEN now "students" in NB school, "hitting on 14-15 year old girls"
Faith GoldyArchive
After my investigation into reports that migrant children in Nova Scotia were bullying other students, TheRebel.media set up a tip line -- tips@therebel.media -- for parents whose children were also being bullied.
Now a parent in New Brunswick says there are migrant "children" at her child's school as old as 22. These adult males "with full beards" are "hitting on the 14-15 year old girls."
TheRebel.media filed an Access to Information request to get to the bottom of this -- and over 2000 documents came in, with more on the way
Emails between teachers reveal what's going on in their classrooms.
What they talk about will shock you:
Bullying, anti-semitism, sexual harassment, jokes about homemade bombs -- and refugee girls telling teachers they live in fear of their brothers and fathers.
On Thursday, I'll present my FULL REPORT on my show, but throughout the week, we'll post more previews like this one.
Stay tuned, and please share these videos far and wide.

All the parents who are having trouble and any that are sympathetic to the situation should withdraw all their children from the school and refuse to come back until the school board re-settles the children in a safe school…in fact, all the parents who are not from the disruptive group should leave and refuse to send their children to school at all until this is fixed…OR claim refugee status and line up at the US border…if all of them showed up that would be so embarrassing for the Canadian government…and it would be a warning to Americans as well…do not leave your children in this hell-hole another day…it is no longer a school, but a social experiment…and you should not permit your children to be guinea pigs for this radical socialist government.

It astounds and sickens me the way this country, its leaders and far to many of its citizens are accepting this islamic infestation. Our forefathers who fought for this country must be turning in their graves. Vigilantes is one thing, defending your country and especially your children is your god given right. Time for Canadian family's at any school in this country that have these muslim vermin attending to pull their children from the school until concrete steps are taken to deal with this issue. Time to grow a pair Canada and deal with this vulgar cult.
Thomas Pratt commented 2016-06-29 10:13:34 -0400
It is becoming very clear to me that Justin & his pals really are not concerned about Canadians, ie the people that were born here. The people that work here. The people that pay the taxes & obey our laws. The people that serve this country be it teachers; doctors; police or our military.
The fact that adult Islamic students are being placed in the same class rooms and grades as 14 year old girls when they are in their 20's is proof our government has not thought out it's plans for integration very well. It is very clear by the way the children and parents are dismissed when complaints are filed that the Government & Authorities do not care.
We need to ask ourselves is this the Canada that we wish to support and live in? We need to ask ourselves is it not high time we close our borders to any more immigrants coming from countries that clearly do not understand or accept our laws and customs. I for one do not wish to waste one more penny of our tax dollars on these kinds of people. If they wish to accept our laws & customs work & contribute in a positive manner than they are welcome.
If there plan is to change our culture to sharia law & backward attitudes than I say invite them to leave.
This is on you Justin & the rest of your gang! If you wish to stay in power and not be voted out, you shall need to rethink your policies.

Just wait until there is an outbreak of "sexual emergencies" !! Drunken Fudd McCallum may have to be parachuted in to try and save the day. All of these poor souls from the "CAMPS"?? may need additional coddling. My sympathies to the parents of the Canadian kids suffering because of this,and worse is yet to come. BUT EACH AND EVERY ADULT IN THE MARATIMES LOOK INTO A MIRROR. YOU are the ones who voted IMAM JUSTIN and the LIBERALS into office. WAKE UP. The normal liberal EI-WELFARE saviors of the east will not be able to help much longer. The national welfare teat in Alberta is drying up quickly, and it is common knowledge that a monumental electoral mistake was made here. In fact our excuse of a Premier, in another fit of delusion, has hired a moron from Cape Breton to chair the "Energy Efficiency Alberta" panel. This would be the same clueless nut case that recommended that you folks down east should remain financially impoverished and energy subservient to others, when in fact you could be richer and controlling your own fate. All because of PHONY lies and misconceptions about fracking. My sorrow to the die hard conservatives in eastern Canada, please fight on. As for all the Liberal voters, especially ones who have kids that may suffer the ill effects of Justin's folly, I hope you are HAPPY now.
regan jonny commented 2016-06-28 12:00:10 -0400
Looks like it is time for parents to organise a good old fashioned BEAT DOWN OF THESE ANIMALS. The police and politicians will not do anything. Politicians are hoping it will all go away but it is only the beginning, To much BS is being allowded seems if your an Islamic pervert everything goes, Islam is the liberals new favorite victim, But victims they will be if this keeps up only a matter of time now.
Milan Novakovic commented 2016-06-28 10:38:01 -0400
The only adults that should be in any school anywhere in Canada are teachers, support staff or parents.
The rest should be treated with suspicion and removed IMMEDIATELY. Why are the parents of these girls not saying anything? Fear of being labelled as 'racist'.
Just like the US government sacrificed the meaning of the 49 victims' lives in Orlando for the sake of political correctness.
Absolutely astonishing.
James Scott commented 2016-06-28 09:35:41 -0400
We'll have to call on our Super Hero Justin with the help of Alpha Flight to sort this out and save all the children of the land.
He can fly in with his cape and gloves during the dark of night and tell all the children that "Canada's Super Hero has their back." "And uh uh huh uh uh ah uh ah, we aren't going to tolerate this. This is what Canadians expect and that is exactly what your government is going to do".
Maybe his dad will be magically reappear to help fight off the enemy.
Say Trudeau, comic relief isn't how to run a country.
How embarrassing.
After all this is indeed about "Choosing Sides". And Canadians indeed really do want to know whose side you are on Justin? Its what we expect.
So where are the parents? Perhaps the PTA needs a project like waiting for their kids after school with balaclavas and bats. Nothing gets the police moving like citizens defending themselves and their families.
Jim Clark commented 2016-06-28 09:07:00 -0400
Thanks Justin Trudeau, you slimy French Canadian moron.

Then, when your month is up, come back and compare notes with the non-Premium followers of the Rebel. See who knows more. Until then, hasta la vista.
So you support Rebel exploiting children being assaulted and sexually harnessed
to sell Premium and holding on to valuable documents.
I'm sure Missy (Whom I spoke to and is now moving to get away) feels great about
that story dying because Rebel felt it was more importing to score Premium subscribers
then it was to get the FULL story out for everyone to see.
Don't bother giving me the things cost money excuse, the trip to Halifax was paid
for after Rebel requested donations and then doubled down putting 45 minutes
of it behind the paywall.
This isn't a game.. people are dying. children are being hurt
Muslims are beating down the next generation so that they will be took broken
to fight back..
We are at WAR.
M P, Google "Telegraph-Journal," and take a look at what a REAL paywall !ooks like.
Then take your whiny complaints somewhere else, because I'm not the least bit interested. Buh-bye.
Dieter Cunth commented 2016-06-27 23:05:55 -0400
If it's happening in New Brunswick, it's happening everywhere.
Wait until a school board official says, in response to similar harassment, "Well, send your daughter to another school. I have no problem with that."
It's only a matter of time before the lid blows off this pot.
Susan Ashbrook commented 2016-06-27 22:39:12 -0400
Patti Gardner… must say I like your term "Jihadi Justin" It definitely explains where he stands. Thank you!
The last story died because Rebel used it to promote Premium and hid the majority of it
behind a paywall so the number of people who saw it was too limited for it to go "Viral".
You can't share paywall content.
Rebel also needs upload all these documents so WE can pour over them
and expose whats in them. 2000+ documents and more on the way
is too much for a handful of videos until Faiths next show which is HIDDEN
behind a paywall anyways.
Stay on this one FAITH

I heard about this latest abuse at Fredericton High several months ago, from a friend of mine who works there. Of course her attempts to whistle-blow were shot down and she almost lost her job over it. And this is the tip of the iceberg. There are other schools in the Maritimes and across Canada affected by similar problems with these inbred migrant savages. Canada is becoming another Rotherham UK.
I'm glad the Rebel is finally reporting this, and that other such stories will be uncovered. Not that Jihadi Justin will do anything to protect these Canadian kids of course.
"He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth."
Have a great Dominion Day.

Thanks turdo – you islamic pussy
Rumors about FHS have been flying for months. It's good to see the Rebel bringing this story out into the open at last.
Notice there has been not a peep from the media in NB. Could that be because they are all under the thumb of the same Empire that imports lots of crude from the Saudis?
Who is the sub-human intellect who puts these anti-social animals in a class with young school girls – I bet he's a pedophile himself.
If another doubts that Canada is a cesspool, you stand corrected.

If you've just opened your shiny new Kindle Fire and tried to connect it to Gmail using your own custom (not @gmail.com) email address, you might be in for a surprise: the email account wizard has no idea how to handle this scenario, even if you pick Gmail at the beginning. Here's how to fix it.
Note: we're in the middle of doing a thorough test of the Kindle Fire, and we'll post our in-depth review in the next few days. So far: it's a great tablet for the price.
You'll need to start, naturally, by opening up the Email application and selecting from the list—you can choose Gmail, even though we'll have to tweak the settings. Once there, enter your email address and password.
Note: if you haven't already enabled IMAP, you'll want to head to your Gmail mail settings page and turn it on there.
Then you'll probably want to choose IMAP.
And now you'll come to the screen that makes no sense. The username is wrong, the IMAP server is wrong, and the security type is wrong.
Once you get past that screen, you'll be able to access your email without issue.

British Ford Cars of the 1960s and 1970s
The 1960s and 1970s were a pivotal period for Ford in Europe and, seen from a British perspective, were a time of experimentation and exploration. At the start of the 1960s Ford had models aimed at just two market sectors – small family saloons and large family saloons – but by the end of the 1970s they were represented in no fewer than five areas of the market with small hatchbacks, small saloons, medium saloons, sporty coupés and large saloons. And they had overtaken all rivals in Britain to be the best-selling manufacturer with (since 1967) the Cortina as the best-selling car. With over 270 photographs, this book details: the Ford company structure, businesses and key locations throughout the two decades; the factors influencing model design, engineering, styling and interior; specification and performance tables; market reception and sales; special editions, models produced overseas and conversions and finally, helpful buying advice for each model.
British Ford Cars of the 1960s and 1970s by James Taylor
James Taylor has been writing professionally about cars since the late 1970s, and his interests embrace a wide range of older cars of all makes and nationalities, as well as classic buses, lorries and military vehicles. James has written more than 130 books in all, and among them have been several definitive one-make or one-model titles, including a large number for The Crowood Press.
The opening chapter is a fascinating summary of everything to do with Ford of Britain in these two pivotal decades, while the chapters on everything from the 105E Anglia to the first Fiesta are a perfect mix of detail and readability. It all wraps up with a chapter on the various Ford engines built in this period.

Kinard Core Knowledge Middle School is one of three Colorado schools to be recognized by Solution Tree for its quality and success in creating a professional learning community (PLC). Kinard was first recognized as a national model for professional learning communities in 2012, and that status was reaffirmed in 2015 by allthingsplc.org.
1. Learning as the fundamental purpose of the school.
2. Establishing a collaborative culture combined with job-embedded professional development.
3. Basing the school's effectiveness on results, not intentions.
Schools are recognized based on strict criteria, including demonstration of a commitment to PLC concepts, implementation of these concepts for at least 3 years, and clear evidence of improved student learning over that period. Once measurable results can be seen, the school's practices, structures, and culture are explained and submitted for consideration by the PLC Review Committee at AllThingsPLC.info.
Recognized model PLC schools are listed on AllThingsPLC.info website so that they can share their implementation strategies, structures, and performance with other educators interested in improving their schools. The site also includes tools for team collaboration, articles and research about PLCs, blog posts, and other related resources.
Kinard has been implementing the PLC at WorkTM process for 12 years and has continued to see tangible results. In reading, writing, math and science, Kinard is the top performing PSD middle school in student achievement on Colorado standardized tests. In the fine arts, Kinard has continued to earn a superior rating from the state, and students have award-winning artwork displayed locally. The school has been recognized by the National Core Knowledge Foundation as an "Official Core Knowledge School" and, for all years it has been awarded, has been presented with the "John Irwin School of Excellence Award" from the Colorado Department of Education for outstanding academic achievement. As an Energy Star Award school, Kinard has been designated "Most Energy Efficient School" in the state of Colorado and was recognized by the governor's office with the "Colorado Environmental Leadership Award" for its student leadership in composting and recycling.

• Let others know your intentions.
• If you are slowing, stopping, or turning, signal or call out your intentions.
• Watch for potholes, storm drains, sand, and other hazards and point them out.
• If you hear a car approaching from behind, shout, "Car back!"

Gavin Harrison – Cheating The Polygraph
Article by: Roger Trenwith
Gavin Harrison is a musician who is always on the lookout for something a bit different. Since Porcupine Tree stopped he has been much in demand, and in addition to guest spots on other's albums, and touring his drum clinic, he has also made a rather good and unique sounding record with electronica whizzkid O5Ric, the duo's third outing, and first post-PT. Then of course there's the small matter of being an arranger and central drummer for the current version of King Crimson. Not one to sit on his laurels, then, but no-one would have expected an album of Porcupine Tree covers in a jazz big band style, which is what we have here.
"Does it work?" is probably the most obvious question, and I can say with certainty, yes, it does. I will admit that even I was somewhat nervous on pressing play, but my fears were soon allayed. Gavin picked the Porcupine Tree songs that leant themselves to being rearranged, big band style. In our interview with Gavin (which you can read HERE), he credits bass player and master arranger Laurence Cottle (Bill Bruford's Earthworks, Alan Parsons Project, etc) for that, and given how the album was assembled the arrangement part of the process goes beyond my understanding as a non-musician, but it sounds like a very complicated procedure. I won't go into that further here, for Gavin explains it all in the interview. Suffice to say the explanation of how Cheating The Polygraph was put together is jaw-dropping! That the end result is a cohesive, organic and living piece of music is really quite remarkable.
I will keep this review short, as Gavin goes into more detail in the interview. However, most Porcupine Tree fans will be playing "guess the track", which is a fun if sometimes futile (heheh) exercise, as Laurence has rearranged some of these songs into something else entirely. Indeed, some of these tracks are more than one PT song welded seamlessly together. You will pick up on snatches of melody in the otherwise barely recognisable rearrangements that will have you scratching your head and searching out the original once you've looked at the track title. There are some songs that are instantly obvious, the most recognisable of which are Sound Of Muzak and Hatesong. Gavin and crew also tackle The Pills I'm Taking, a part of the somewhat disjointed Anaesthetise, and I feel it works better here a stand alone. It only reinforces my contention that Anaesthetise gives the impression of three songs tacked together to make a prog-pleasing "long 'un", but that's a discussion for another time.
In order to appreciate this album, a love of Porcupine Tree is not merely inessential, but largely irrelevant. If you liked jazz rock from the many bands in the genre, just before the longer lasting fusion style properly established itself, then you will definitely like this. Those bands I refer to include The Graham Bond Organisation, Manfred Mann's Chapter III, Blood Sweat & Tears, early Chicago, and although the "rock" guitar in some of those bands is absent here, it is jazz done in a rock context, and it is a great success.
This is densely packed and intricate music, with a controlled power. I only have a download for this review, but the CD/DVD version (see links below) comes with a 5:1 mix, which would certainly do it justice and be great to hear, I'm sure!
Initially I thought this album might turn out to be one of those curios that one revisits occasionally to remind oneself if it really WAS that far off the beam, but my first impressions were entirely wrong – a reviewer admitting he's wrong? Has the world gone mad? No, Cheating The Polygraph is simply a great record, and one that will probably make by end of year list with ease.

This record is for the farthest BMX limbless manual, it's a unofficial record. The record would be measured in meters with the relevant equivalent given in feet and inches. The trick is defined as a wheelie, performed with the rider sitting on the seat without touching the bicycle with his/her hands and legs. Propulsion is only provided with the power generated from the run-up prior to the correct position being achieved.
Rules would be similar to a previous record on the front wheel which is 13 meter.
A starting line must be clearly visible on the ground.
Any length of run-up is allowed but the front wheel of the bicycle must be off the floor before passing the starting line.
The participant may not use their feet to increase propultion during the attempt once the run-up has been completed.
No part of participant's hands or legs can touch any part of the bicycle during the attempt.
Sufficient witnesses must be along the track to be able to confirm that the claimant has not pedalled or touched the ground or the bicycle and to mark the spot where the claimant's front wheel touches the ground again or where he/she touches the bicycle.
If the claimant's hands or legs touch the ground at any point during the attempt, the attempt is to be disqualified.
The claimant must bring the bike to a controlled stop in order for the attempt to count.
The distance is measured from the starting line to the position the back wheel of bicycle was at when the front wheel touched the ground again, or when the bicycle is touched by the participant's hands or legs.
A qualified surveyor must be on hand to measure the distance, this process must be clearly shown in the video evidence.

FUTA Student Commits Suicide Over Alleged Fraud And Family Disagreements In Ondo
Oluwapelumi Joseph Olona, a student of the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA), has committed suicide at his residence in Akure, Ondo State capital.
FUTA Student Kills Himself
It was gathered that the 300-level student, who was in the Department of Industrial Design at the university, hanged with the aid of buckets in his room in an off-campus lodge in the Aule area of Akure metropolis.
The deceased's body was found in the early hours of Saturday, when his close friends forced his room door open after he refused to pick his call, coupled with the fact that he didn't open his door after several knocks.
Vanguard reports that a friend of the deceased, Omoniyi Enoch, who spoke with the Union of Campus Journalists of FUTA, on its Facebook page, said the late Olona was suspected to have committed suicide following an issue of money he had with his department.
Enoch said Late Olona was the Financial Secretary of his department until his death.

"When school resumed for the 2021/2022 session, the Treasurer of the department wasn't around to receive payment for due. Joseph (Olona) decided to receive the payments from students.
The President requested that Joseph should send N100,000 to him for a departmental project. Joseph sent it using his digital bank – Carbon. He was debited but the President didn't receive the payment.
Several emails were sent to the bank but the issue wasn't resolved. Due to that, he was so pressured about it and everyone secluded him. He hasn't attended lectures since we got back from the Christmas break because of the pressure.
Yesterday morning, I went to get my phone from Joseph because his phone is faulty and we both shared my phone. He informed me that his HOD called his daddy and said he engaged in fraud. He was very disturbed about it.
He requested to follow me to my office at the Students' Union Building because he didn't want to stay alone. I left him at the office to attend the homecoming event that was held at the T.I Francis auditorium and also watched the Awopegba match.

When I got back to the office, he had already locked the office door. He came back to give me the keys and left. When I got home, I forced him to eat. At 7:40 pm, knocked on his door but he didn't open. I left thinking he was still angry with me for leaving him at the office.
At 8:30 pm, I knocked again but there was no response. At 10:01 pm, I tried again but there was no response, so I went to sleep. This morning, I went to knock around 8 am but there was no response. I had to go and check through his window and I saw him hanging from the ceiling" Enoch was quoted as saying
Another source who spoke to Vanguard said Late Olona was an olnly son and last born of his parents and had some unresolved issues with his parents over his performance in his studies in his first year.
"The boy did not go home throughout the period of ASUU strike because of the problems he had with his parents over his unimpressive result at 100 level."

Pair this winter fruit salad with some cold weather comfort foods such as this crock pot roast, this shepherd's pie recipe, or this chicken tortilla soup.
Fruit salads aren't commonly made when there's snow and freezing temperatures outside, but this winter fruit salad might just become your new go-to! It's light, delicious, and is made from fruits available during the winter months. Plus it's SO easy to make and it really feels great getting some fruit in your diet when it's so cold outside.
Something I always struggle with in the winter is finding good fruits for my kids to eat, so I'm very excited about this winter fruit salad because they can't get enough of it. We've made it almost every night this week!
I use canned mandarin oranges because those are my kids absolute FAVORITE, but mandarins are in season and also work great in this salad! Next we add some apples, a pear, and some kiwi.
A few weeks ago I shared an amazing wild rice salad using POM POMS pomegranate arils and I've loved seeing so many of your recreations of it! Today I'm partnering up again with POM Wonderful to share this winter fruit salad and a few fun facts about pomegranate arils.
POM Wonderful makes POM POMS which are a convenient package of ready-to-eat pomegranate arils straight from their California orchards. Pomegranate arils have unique antioxidants and fiber AND they make a great healthy snack. POM Wonderful sells 4.3 ounce containers (that are only 100 calories) that make the perfect healthy snack and are perfect for this salad. However, if you're making this salad for a crowd, you'll want one of their 8 ounce containers (and double the rest of the ingredients). You can find POM POMS in the freshly cut fruit section (or refrigerated produce section) in most grocery stores.
The dressing is an easy few ingredients: fresh lemon juice and lemon zest, poppyseeds, and honey. Whisk that together and toss it with the fruit and you'll be in heaven! These few simple ingredients really enhance the flavors of the fruit so well. I like to let the fruit sit with this dressing about thirty minutes before serving it and you'll be amazed how flavorful the end result is!
And last but not least, a bit of fresh mint adds another dimension of wintery flavors. I hope you love this winter fruit salad as much as me and my family does!
In a large bowl, toss together the drained mandarin oranges, the diced Bartlett pear, the thinly sliced apples, and the peeled, sliced, and halved kiwis. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, and poppyseeds. Pour over the salad and toss gently. Cover and refrigerated for 30 minutes.
Remove and top with the pomegranate arils and fresh (chopped) mint if desired. Serve immediately.
Cook time refers to chilling time!
Special thanks to POM Wonderful for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are my own.
It's so colorful fruit salad! I love mandarin orange too. In Japan, we eat mandarin orange during winter.
This winter salad looks so delicious! I'm already saving this recipe so I can try it later. Thanks for posting!
Looks beautiful and I'm thinking it would be great on Christmas morning! Do you think fresh oranges or clementines would work okay?
We really enjoyed thge salad. A nice combination of flavirs!
Thanks for the nice fruit salad. That sounds so good and I love how easy it is!

-having regard to the 1984 Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment,
-having regard to Rule 122(5) of its Rules of Procedure,
A.whereas the Council of the European Union and the UN Security Council condemned what the DPRK claimed to have been a 'successful hydrogen bomb test' conducted on 6 January 2016, which clearly violates its international obligations under the UN Security Council resolutions and poses a serious threat to regional and international peace and security;
B.whereas on 8 July 1996, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in its advisory opinion on the Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons stipulated that "the threat or use of nuclear weapons would generally be contrary to the use of international law" and whereas there exists an obligation of all states "to pursue in good faith and to bring to a conclusion negotiations leading to nuclear disarmament in all its aspects under strict and effective international control";
C. whereas North Korea's pursuit of nuclear and ballistic missile programmes constitutes a clear breach of the ICJ advisory opinion and risks aggravating regional tensions;
D. whereas DPRK's focus on military investments can be considered criminal negligence of the basic needs of its citizens in view of the fact that some 70 percent of the 24.6 million North Koreans are food insecure and that almost 30 percent of under-five children are acutely malnourished;
D.whereas the EU has strongly supported the idea of a nuclear-free Korean peninsula, and considers the resumption of the Six-Party Talks to be essential for peace and stability in the region; would however add much to its conviction power if it decided to lead by example;
E.whereas the DPRK regime has hardly cooperated with the UN and has not acted upon the UN Human Rights Council and General Assembly resolutions regarding human rights in North Korea; it has refused to extend an invitation to the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the country, and has rejected all assistance from the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights under the special procedures;
F.whereas the UN Commission of Inquiry (CoI) investigated 'the systematic, widespread and grave violations of human rights' in North Korea and released a report on 7 February 2014; whereas the CoI has come to the conclusion that 'systematic, widespread and gross human rights violations have been and are being committed by the DPRK, and in many instances, the violations found constitute crimes against humanity based on State policies' and do not have 'any parallel in the contemporary world';
G. whereas the EU-DPRK human rights dialogue resumed in 2015 after being suspended by the DPRK since 2003;
H. whereas the UN General Assembly takes note that in the DPRK extrajudicial, summary and arbitrary executions, torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, collective punishments extending up to three generations, extensive use of forced labour continue unhampered;
I. Whereas the government practices forcible transfer of populations while imposing strict limits on citizens' movements inside and outside the country, arbitrary detention and disappearances, including in the form of abductions of foreign nationals, interning more than 200 000 people in prison and 're-education' camps;
I.whereas the people of the DPRK have been exposed to decades of under-development, with poor health care and high levels of maternal and child malnutrition, in a context of political and economic isolation, recurrent natural disasters and international increases in food and fuel prices; whereas large parts of the population are dependent on international food aid; whereas tens of thousands of North Koreans have fled to China;
1.Condemns the nuclear tests and missile activities carried out by the DPRK, and urges it to refrain from further provocative actions by suspending all activities related to its ballistic missile programme and abandoning, in a complete and irreversible manner, the existing nuclear programmes; calls on the DPRK to sign and ratify the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty without delay;
2.welcomes the UN Security Council statement and the debate on the further strengthening of sanctions by the Council following the most recent nuclear test; calls on the DPRK to choose a constructive path by engaging with the international community, which would be conducive to regional stability and improve the welfare of the North Korean people;
3.Urges the DPRK to re-establish its pre-existing commitments to a moratorium on missile launches and to re-join the Non-Proliferation Treaty; underlines the need to intensify efforts to strengthen the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons; recalls the final statement of the 2010 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference expressing 'deep concern at the catastrophic consequences of any use of nuclear weapons' and reaffirming 'the need for all States at all times to comply with applicable international law, including international humanitarian law';
4.Affirms its desire for a diplomatic and political solution to the DPRK nuclear issue; reiterates its support for the Six-Party Talks and calls for their resumption; urges all the participants in the Six-Party Talks to intensify their efforts; calls on the DPRK to re-engage constructively with the international community, and in particular the members of the Six-Party Talks, in order to work towards lasting peace and security on a nuclear-free Korean peninsula and as the best means to secure a more prosperous and stable future for the DPRK;
5.Calls on the People's Republic of China – a permanent member of the UN Security Council and the DPRK's main trading ally – to exert its influence over the DPRK to ensure that the situation does not escalate further, and notes the support of the People's Republic of China for UN Security Council resolution 2094 (2013); notes the consensus among the members of the UN Security Council reacting to the recent nuclear test by the DPRK;
6.Underlines in this context the need to intensify worldwide efforts towards nuclear disarmament; calls for interim and confidence-building measures;
7.Reiterates its strong condemnation of the decade-long state repression exercised in a systematic manner by the present and past Supreme Leaders of the DPRK and the administration, and calls on the DPRK to put an immediate end to the grave, widespread and systematic human rights violations perpetrated against its own people;
8.Underlines the fact that the violations described in the CoI report, many of which constitute crimes against humanity, have been taking place for far too long under the observing eyes of the international community, and appeals to the EU Member States and all members of the UN General Assembly to move the suffering of the North Korean population to the forefront of the political agenda and to ensure that the CoI's recommendations are followed up;
9.Is convinced that the time has come for the international community to take concrete action to end the perpetrators' impunity; demands that those most responsible for the crimes against humanity committed in the DPRK be held accountable, brought before the International Criminal Court and subjected to targeted sanctions;
10.Calls on the Government of the DPRK to fulfil its obligations under the human rights instruments to which it is a party, and to ensure that humanitarian organisations, independent human rights monitors and the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the DPRK have access to the country and are provided with the necessary cooperation;
11.Calls on the government to declare a moratorium on all executions, with a view to abolishing the death penalty in the near future; calls on the DPRK to put an end to extrajudicial killings and enforced disappearances, to release political prisoners and to allow its citizens to travel freely, both within and outside the country; calls on the DPRK to allow free expression and press freedom for national and international media, and to allow its citizens uncensored access to the internet;
12.calls on the government to urgently resolve the issue of systematic abduction of persons including from other countries and calls urgently on the government to ensure the immediate return of abductees;
13. Re-iterates its call on those countries who are recipients of refugees from the DPRK to respect the -951 Geneva Convention and the 1967 protocol to not to send any North Korean refugee back to the DPRK;
14.Expresses its particular concern about the severity of the food situation the country is facing and its impact on the economic, social and cultural rights of the population; calls on the Commission to maintain existing humanitarian aid programmes and channels of communication with the DPRK, and to secure their safe delivery to the targeted parts of the population; calls on the DPRK authorities to ensure access for all citizens to food and humanitarian assistance on the basis of need, in accordance with humanitarian principles;
15.Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, the Council, the Commission, the EU Special Representative on Human Rights, the Government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the Government of the Republic of Korea, the Government of the People's Republic of China, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the DPRK, and the UN Secretary-General.


Despite having a few lazy days in January, I feel like I've actually had a productive month. My goals were met with 'mostly' success AND I've also managed to work out at least 3 times each week, which wasn't on my original plan for January!
I also finished the vintage dress, repaired the doggy car seat and attempted the crate mat covers….that still counts, right?! The only thing I didn't manage was the quilters coasters for our living room.
Finished All The Light We Cannot See and I'm half way through The Man In The High Castle.
I managed at least 2 dog walks everyday, not three everyday but I'm happy with what I did manage with them.
I didn't start the crochet blanket at all – the only one of my goals that I didn't meet!
1. Make quilted coasters, a plastic bag holder, a new zipper keyring pouch (like the ones below from So Sew Easy) and one garment. I may even make a tutu for something I'm doing mid-February!
2. Complete The Man In The High Castle and read Armada.
3. Find some healthier baking recipes and try them out – please pass on any ideas if you have any! I've only seen these Apple cinnamon baked oatmeal cups from Happy Healthy Mama up to now!
Love the westie and I have got that black Scottie dog kit too!
Thank you! Have you done the kit yet?
Wow. That Westie is sooo cute! I got lots of cross stitch stuff for Christmas, but I'm confused at what to do with it.
Thank you! I really think that it looks like Maisy too 🙂 There are some great cross-stitch tutorials on you tube, though most kits have some basic instructions within them. I know there's many different 'methods' but I just do one color at a time.
Impressive, Natalie! Lots of progress made, and the Westie is so cute! (hmmm, will Buzz require one, too?) Those apple cinnamon oatmeal cups look delicious, have you made them yet? I'm always on the lookout for healthy baking, too.
Yay you! What a productive month–great job!
Here's a recipe you might try: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/06/low-fat-chewy-granola-bars-with-pecans.html. I modify it for what I have in my kitchen–whole wheat flour instead of oat flour, milk instead of applesauce, whatever dried fruit and nuts I have. The bars are filling and tasty (but not so tasty that I'm tempted to gorge on them) and keep well.
Oooh, that does look like a great recipe, a good one to swap for cupboard supplies as you suggested too! Thanks for suggesting it!
Congratulations on meeting almost all your goals for Jan.
Wel done, I think I might write down my monthly goals as it is obviously working for you. Live your little westie – I am really looking forward to getting a dog when I retire and it's a Westie Ai want. Three times a day ? Too ambitious!


This is an alternative / variation to Baba Ganoush and equally delicious!
Slice the marrow in half lengthways (if it's particularly big you might have to cut it into chunks.
If it is the type of marrow that has big stringy seeds inside that you can scoop out, then scoop them out (I had to do this for the yellow one but not for the courgette/zucchini-like long green one).
Drizzle on some olive oil (you don't necessarily need to use extra virgin for this bit) and sprinkle on some sea salt.
After about 10 minutes, turn the marrow pieces upside down, skin up, and place back into the oven for about 15 minutes.
Turn them back over, so the flesh is facing upwards, and cook them like this for the rest of the time, until they are nice and soft. Overall cooking time is likely to be 30-45 minutes but depends on the size of the marrows you are using.
Pour off any liquid that may have accumulated inside the marrow, place on a chopping board and leave to cool for a few minutes, then scoop out the insides and place into a bowl.
You will need to leave it to sit for a bit so that the excess water starts separating – gently squeeze the excess water out as you tip it carefully into a sink. You may have to repeat the squeezing a few times so that you don't end up with a soggy dip!
Finely chop the garlic and mix it into the marrow flesh, along with the tahini, a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice and salt & pepper to taste.
Once you are happy with the taste, drizzle more extra virgin olive oil over the top and sprinkle on some chopped parsley leaves.
Refrigerate until you're ready to eat – if you can wait that long!!
Marrow Dip – Gloriously Simple, Gloriously Good!
This is my version – Enjoy!
Then scoop out the flesh carefully with a spoon and place into a bowl. You may have to squeeze out excess water with your hands and drain the extra liquid away.
Finely chop the garlic and mix it into the aubergine flesh, along with the tahini, a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil, the lemon juice and salt & pepper to taste.
Refrigerate until you're ready to eat it – if you can wait that long!!!
Serve with toasted pitta bread.
Baba Ganoush – Gloriously Simple, Gloriously Good!

Nigerian Computer Society decries alarming exodus of ICT skills
Like in the health sector, the ICT sector is also going through the horrifying experience of amazingly intelligent skills exiting Nigeria to other nations.
These nations are now believed to be selling the exact skills back to the country at outrageous prices, which results in attendant capital flight.
With no precise figure disclosed yet, the Nigerian Computer Society (NCS), who made the sad development known, demands that the Federal Government should declare emergency on ICT skills flight.
In a recent interview with the press in Lagos State, NCS President, Prof. Adesola Aderounmu revealed that swift action must be taken to prevent the situation whereby ICT skills will be scarce in Nigeria. He said the reason the country is in this state is because of the loopholes created due to the weak implementation of local content policy in the sector.
Prof Adesola said even with the official declaration, it is clear now that those in charge are not committed enough to implementing ICT Local Content Policy and it is no longer in doubt that Nigerian ICT companies are not being readied by the government to seize the benefits that are arising with emergent national ICT opportunities.
He added that the humiliating fact that there is no available platform to flaunt indigenous ICT solutions to the world at large in a way to ensure Nigeria is a remarkable earner from ICT is another disadvantage on its own.
His words, "Beyond the NITDA-led delegation to the yearly GITEX show in Dubai, when will government create a veritable platform to nurture, package and showcase successful ICT solutions developed in Nigeria on foreign missions, exhibitions and as technical aid to other countries?"
NCS disclosed that there are several FG and IT projects that will be able to put a stop to the rising unemployment in the country if only we can open and eyes to it and execute it the right way.
Prof Adesola continued, "One of such projects is the National Identity Management System (NIMS) project. NCS notes that the number of enrolments into the NIMS has accelerated as a result of a number of regulatory innovations introduced by the current administration such as the integration of the National Identity Number (NIN) into the issuance and renewal of International Passports by the Nigeria Immigration Service. Such regulatory innovations will definitely result in economic growth.
"It is in the light of the foregoing, NCS highlights the plight of one of our corporate members, Chams Plc (and Chams Consortium Ltd., (CCL)), a forefront operator of the National Identity Management System Concession (the Concession), which commenced officially in the year 2010. It is on record that Chams made huge investments, in excess of N9 billion into the concession.
"Chams, however, suffered many frustrations which eventually snowballed into an unresolved state of affairs. This is despite the fact that Chams Plc has submitted to an amicable resolution in furtherance of her faith in the present administration. NCS calls for urgent and decisive intervention to salvage Chams Plc's position and allow Chams Plc and Chams Consortium Ltd reap the fruits of an amicable resolution freely entered into with the NIMC."

The Professional Rookie
Detroit Sports Network
When Emerson Tyler's unrequited high school crush crashed into her first group meeting of the DSN's social media department, it was strange to say the least.
When she learned that her crush wasn't as "unrequited" as she'd always believed, things got even stranger. On the day Bryce Nordlinger had crushed her teenaged heart–not to mention ruined her reputation in order to save his lady-killer status–she'd sworn that she'd never trust him or any man ever again. And she had no intention of breaking that oath, no matter how much more tempting he'd become as a grown up NHL star.
Bryce had always wanted Em to be more than the smart, snarky high school girl who helped him with his terrible English essays. But he'd been busy burnishing his rep as future jock stud, and when his fellow hockey bros caught him skating with her alone in a deserted rink, he'd chosen the easiest path–one that left her hurt in a way he never thought he'd be able to heal. His complete shock at seeing her all grown up and more beautiful than ever in the meeting room at DSN, morphed into a steel-plated resolve. He would win her back and make up for the mess he'd made of her high school senior year, while dragging the once-proud Detroit hockey program out of the dumpster fire and back to prominence at the same time.
