A Peek at Gwendolyn Brooks's Chicago, Then and Now
The masterful poet and South Side legend would have turned 100 years old today.
By Adam Morgan

No writer has ever captured a city the way Gwendolyn Brooks captured Chicago. Beginning with her debut poetry collection in 1945, A Street in Bronzeville, she illustrated the beauty and hardships of African-American life on the South Side. Her muse was the Bronzeville neighborhood—the hypersegregated center of Chicago's Black Belt—for the first half of her life, thanks to institutionalized racism like redlining and restrictive housing covenants.
But after the Harlem Renaissance petered out in the 1930s, Bronzeville became the cultural hub of Black America just as Gwendolyn Brooks reached adulthood. Within a few blocks of today's 47th Street Green Line station, modern blues, jazz, gospel, and a new brand of literary realism were born, kindling the careers of Nat King Cole, Lorraine Hansberry, Louis Armstrong, Richard Wright, and Brooks herself.
Today would have been Gwendolyn Brooks's 100th birthday, so we revisited her most frequent haunts in Bronzeville to see how they've changed.
47th and South Park

From the age of two until she graduated from college, Brooks lived a few blocks north of the heart of Depression-era Bronzeville: the intersection of 47th Street and South Park Way (now Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive). Between 1928 and 1970, this was the site of the Regal Theater, a lush nightclub, music venue, and movie theater twice the size of the Apollo. During its heyday, the Regal drew performers like Cab Calloway, Nat King Cole, Sam Cooke, and Louis Armstrong. As a young adult in the late 1920s and early 1930s, Gwendolyn Brooks went to the Regal with her mother and brother to watch movies. She liked the romance films starring Bette Davis, Clark Gable, and Katharine Hepburn, while her brother preferred westerns. In the longest poem from A Street in Bronzeville, Satin-Legs Smith frequents the Regal to "boo the heroine / Whose ivory and yellow it is sin / For his eye to eat of."
The Regal was demolished in 1973 and replaced with the Harold Washington Cultural Center, a modern performance venue and event space. Initially shrouded in scandal thanks to the alleged nepotism and mismanagement of former alderman Dorothy Tillman, it was supposed to be the centerpiece of a tourist-friendly "blues district," but that plan was abandoned. However, in recent years the venue has become an active hub for dance, poetry, and acting classes, according to the Chicago Defender.
The First Kitchenette

One of Brooks's best poems, "kitchenette building," evokes the cramped living quarters of many black Chicagoans between 1915 and 1950. White landlords, seeking to maximize profits during the Great Migration, carved up single-family apartments into two or three smaller units with paper-thin walls.
The first kitchenette that Brooks lived in still stands at 4259 South King Drive. "I remember feeling bleak when I was taken to my honeymoon home, the kitchenette apartment in the Tyson on 43rd and South Park," she says in her first memoir, Report from Part One. Constructed in 1893 when the neighborhood was white and wealthy, the building was originally called the Belmonte Flats. When Brooks and her new husband Henry Blakely arrived in 1931, it had been carved up into kitchenettes and renamed the Tyson Apartments. Today the ground floor is home to the Bronzeville Boutique, while the upper floors remain residential.
The South Side Community Art Center

After her son was born in 1940, Brooks began taking poetry classes at the new South Side Community Art Center (3831 S. Michigan Ave.) with Inez Cunningham Stark, an editor at Poetry magazine. It was here that Brooks wrote and workshopped many of the poems in A Street in Bronzeville, and where a visiting Langston Hughes heard her perform "The Ballad of Pearl May Lee."
According to Eleanor Roosevelt, the Georgian Revival-style brownstone was once the home of Charles Comiskey, founding owner of the White Sox. Today it's still a vibrant center for the arts in Bronzeville, both as a museum of African-American art and as a meeting space for artistic youth and teens.
The Mecca

After publishing A Street in Bronzeville in 1945, Brooks became a national sensation. Five years later, she became the first black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for her second collection, Annie Allen. By then she had left Bronzeville for Woodlawn, and later settled in the Greater Grand Crossing area for 40 years. But her writing never left Bronzeville behind, including her strongest indictment of Chicago's racial injustice, the 1968 collection In the Mecca.
"The Mecca" refers to the Mecca Apartments—also known as the Mecca Flats—which was built as a hotel for world's fair visitors in 1893. As the Bronzeville population swelled during the Great Migration, the Mecca was converted into crowded apartments for African Americans and left to rot. Conditions were so bad, it inspired the classic blues song "Mecca Flat Blues."
Brooks never lived in the Mecca, but she did work there for a few months after college in the mid-1930s. It was probably the strangest job of her life: assistant to a spiritual adviser who lived in the building and was later murdered. "She would see herself toiling up the stairs to various ones of the 176 apartments to deliver 'Holy Thunderbolts' and 'Liquid Love Charms' to people whose lives were so often steeped in misery and violence," writes George E. Kent in A Life of Gwendolyn Brooks.
The Mecca Apartments were demolished in 1951 by the Illinois Institute of Technology, who had hired Mies Van der Rohe to remake the northwestern corner of Bronzeville in his stark, modernist style. Today the corner of 34th and State is occupied by Van der Rohe's S. R. Crown Hall, home of IIT's College of Architecture. While not intentional, the building's lines and symmetry echo the beautiful interior courtyards of the Mecca, which—like so many other icons of Bronzeville's rich history—are now lost forever.

I have been accepted for the Teddies Worldwide Christmas Treasures Show.
This time, instead of being in a dash to finish, I decided I would get all my bears done early :) I have been madly sewing and now I have 10 sewn bears/animals all ready to stuff. I hate the fact I have nothing to show you but hopefully it will be a lovely surprise on the 15th of November.
Now they are sewn, I hope I will have things to show again soon !
As well as the online show, I am attending 2 "in the fur" shows.
The first is The Brisbane Teddy Bear Fair this weekend (Sunday 18th Aug) in the Auditorium at Botanical Gardens, Mt Cootha Rd Toowong.
This one is on Saturday 24th of August.


"Home is where the heart is" is a cliché we know all too well. For some of us, home is a sacred place for relaxation and a space we'd love to occupy more than ten hours a day if only we had the chance. However, others simply consider it a place to sleep and eat – nothing more, nothing less. Either they aren't much of a homebody, or just really have an active social life that they barely spend time indoors. The last thing you should feel in your own home is unwelcome.
Our homes should be filled with objects that make us happy and at ease. Aesthetics and home design are key influences when it comes to improving physical, mental and emotional health. Who you share the space with is a whole 'nother story, though.
Did you know that sunlight increases levels of serotonin (happy hormones) in our body? In short, sunlight makes us happier. Too much of anything is a bad thing, so remember to cut those natural tanning sessions and sun exposure short.
Find a way to utilize natural lighting and get yourself easy access to the view outside (even if it's just a view of the landscaping, front yard or backyard). Installing skylights might sound like an investment meant for the lavish homeowner, but it'll pay off in the long run through less expensive electricity bills.
Use less artificial lighting. If you must use bright lights, position them in areas that you want to be emphasized. Like next to your favorite frame or a reading corner. Attaching lamps to the wall rather than placing them on top of a table will even save you more space. Indoor lights aren't as beneficial as good ol' vitamin D, though.
Wide windows will also function well in terms of letting the light and fresh air in.
You might think that you've got it good as long as you have a functioning air conditioner and heater. Having a limited source of natural air can be harmful for your health and even trigger sick building syndrome. Being indoors poses as many health threats as being outdoors.
To spice up your interiors and improve air quality without compromising space, try caring for small plants or succulents. Succulents aren't space consuming and are even cute and aesthetically pleasing. Plus it only requires watering every few days, making it a low maintenance "green" duty. As hassle-free as plastic plants are, they don't benefit us as well as real ones do. You've got yourself an additional source of oxygen, indoors.
It doesn't matter if you live in a loft, a penthouse, have a two-story home or are trying to make it by in a compact city like Hong Kong. Space can be manipulated in many ways. One way is through the use of sliding doors. In a small area, the lesser doors that open in your face, the more space you get for moving around.
Mirrors add scale to room if placed strategically. Keep furniture low-slung so that rooms feel taller. Floating bookcase or shelves can be placed in corners so they don't take up space. The floating aspect makes it easier to clean around and provides more leg room. Choose furniture in neutral tones instead, so they remain versatile no matter the current trend. You can always just add elements of the current trend through your accessories and pillows later on.
Half-painted walls also give off the illusion that your ceiling is taller than it actually is. Dark shades are depressing dreary while white reflects light well and makes a space feel wider and more illuminated.
Minimalism is a popular aesthetic and has been proven to give clarity of mind, better mental health, more freedom, less stress and more time. Unplug and detach yourself from technology every once in a while. However, if slightly messy rooms and physical clutter give you peace of mind, keep it that way.
This aspect of interior design is quite subjective. We all have different means of finding control in this chaotic world. Space can either stress you out or keep you at ease.
It doesn't matter how small or spacious your living quarters are. There is always room for improvement (literally) at home. Personal space is actually an irreplaceable and precious source of comfort. Why pay for five-star accommodations when you can find everything you want and need right at home?

Date of Hearing:  May 6, 2015
ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS
Jimmy Gomez, Chair
144 (Mathis) - As Amended April 23, 2015
|Policy       |Public Safety                  |Vote:|7 - 0        |
|Committee:   |                               |     |             |
|             |                               |     |             |
|-------------+-------------------------------+-----+-------------|
Urgency:  No  State Mandated Local Program:  YesReimbursable:
This bill specifies that the fourth violation of illegal dumping
on private property shall be a misdemeanor punishable by up to
30 days in the county jail.
FISCAL EFFECT:
Minor, nonreimbursable costs for incarceration.
1)Purpose.  According to the author, "Under existing law,
dumping in non-commercial quantities on private property is
only an infraction and subject to a minor fine and no jail
time. Illegal dumping on private property is a serious issue
for property owners, law enforcement agencies, and communities
as a whole. Dumpers impose significant clean-up costs upon the
owners of the afflicted property. Dumping also poses a costly
burden on law enforcement officials whom are called to respond
when an incident occurs. Communities also suffer more than a
nuisance as property values and revenues to local government
suffer due to blight from dumping. While the costs and
negative outcomes associated with illegal dumping on private
property can be high, the penalties for offenders whom are
apprehended are too minor to provide adequate deterrence from
this behavior. This bill would increase the penalty for
illegal dumping on private property in non-commercial
quantities from an infraction to a misdemeanor, subject to
stiffer fines and up to 30-days of jail time, to discourage
illegal dumping."
2)Creates a New Misdemeanor.  This bill creates a new
misdemeanor where there is currently an infraction penalty.
Every fourth or subsequent violation of dumping waste on
private property shall now be punishable by a misdemeanor
penalty of up to 30 days in the county jail.  As a result of
imposing a misdemeanor penalty, this legislation will permit
accused persons to apply for the aid of a public defender.
Additionally, persons charged with misdemeanor offenses may
demand a jury trial in Superior Court.  However, existing fine
is for a third or subsequent infraction is not increasing as a
result of this legislation.

A message from the President
Greetings 444th Bomb Group B-29ers!
It has been a trying couple of years for the Administration of the 444th. We have experienced many life changing issues including cancer, Alzheimer's, a near-death traffic accident, as well as loss of employment and changes in income. Unfortunately, we have been unable to update the website and our Newsletter has been on forced hiatus. However, the rumors of our death have been greatly exaggerated! We are once again behind the controls of the greatest Bomb Group of WW-II and look forward to our continued growth as an organization. We also have very big news regarding the 444th Museum Project, but we will save that for the Newsletter.
As always we thank you for your continued support of the 444th BG Association.
"Ding Hao!" (Very Best)
Bill Howe
President / Founder
444th Bomb Group Association
444th Bomb Group Museum Project Update:
As many of you know we only had one prerequisite to the donation of the 444th BG collection; our items must under NO circumstances ever be sold or transferred. All we were asking for was a guarantee that the items would be cared for and available for our members and the public to view. It didn't seem like too much to ask from large, successful museums supposedly dedicated to preserving WW-II history. To our great surprise, there was no Museum that would give us any assurances as to what would be done with the items after they were donated. This was completely unacceptable to us. So we kept looking.
After ten years of hard work and persistence we have finally found a wonderful home for the 444th BG records and artifacts. We are excited to announce that the Bombers on the Prairie Museum in Pratt Kansas (B-29 Museum, Inc. 501c3) as the new home of the 444th Bomb Group Association museum collection. In addition, we would like to announce our partnership with B-29 Museum, Inc. This collaboration will allow us to reach a broader audience through shared resources and larger public awareness campaigns for both organizations.
The 444th Bomb Group Association also wishes to extend our deepest gratitude to B-29 Museum, Inc. for their hard work, and for being willing to do the right thing in a world of sharks in suits. We are proud to be associated with such a fine organization.

Your Association needs your help and it won't cost you a dime; Only some time:
The main reason that things get done so slowly with our organization and website is lack of people willing to help. The time has come for our members to step up and share some of the load. Specifically, there are two positions that we have been trying to fill for over five years. The details of each are listed below.
Membership Director: Responsible for maintaining membership records and sending basic email membership correspondence; requires intermediate web browsing abilities and working knowledge of MS Office Suite. Private 444th BG email address will be provided.
Digital Archivist: Convert photos and documents to the digital medium including back up of existing digital records and current online content. Also includes maintaining the off-line digital archive for the Association (i.e. storage of digital material on external media). Position requires strong computer skills. 444th BG email address will be provided.
If you are interested in performing either of these functions for the Association please contact President Bill Howe: billhowe@444thbg.org

Q: How to make Link from react-router-dom work further inside the application? I have a <HashRouter> wrapping the components which holds the <Link> components, however, I still get the error Error: Invariant failed: You should not use <Link> outside a <Router>. Is there some hierarchy that says you have to have the Links on a higher level than I have? I have the <Link>
inside a dropdown.
Something like my app is:
<HashRouter>
  <ComponentA>
    <ComponentB>
      <Link to="/my-path"/>
    </ComponentB>
  </ComponentA>
</HashRouter>

EDIT:
What I am doing is adding a <Link> inside a custom option inside a dropdown which I have gotten from a library. It says I can add custom elements into my dropdown options. The dropdown I am making is complex with buttons inside it, and I want to link to one place if you click the title. There is where the Link comes in. When I add the Link there, the error message appear, but not when I add the Link directly to the component which is using the dropdown. This is how I have the component, which is not working. This is just mocked data, the data I use are calculated inside a .map:

const CustomLink = () => <Link to="/some-path">Title of link</Link>;

const data = [{
    selected_key: 'id1',
    content: [<CustomLink />, <CustomButton />]
  },
  ...
]

return <DropdownFromLibrary data={data} />;

I want/need to add the components inside a array, but the above example does not work. This below do work, to have the Link inside the same component as the Dropdown, but is not what I want, since I need to calculate new path to every option:
return (
  <>
    <CustomLink />
    <DropdownFromLibrary data={data} />
  </>
);

SOLUTION
import { useHistory } from 'react-router-dom';

...

const history = useHistory();
const CustomLink = ({ id, title }) =>
 history.push(`/some-title/${id}`)}>{title}

const data = [{
    selected_key: 'id1',
    content: [<CustomLink />, <CustomButton />]
  },
  ...
]

return <DropdownFromLibrary data={data} />;

A: You have an error because the Link has to go inside the   < componentB> . I mean inside componentB's function. Wrap ur return elements inside the Link.

Q: How to delete an app from a Rails project? Initially I made 2 apps (app_a and app_b) in a single project in Ruby. Now I want to delete one (say app_a). How should I do so? Is deleting the app folder sufficient?

A: You need to drop your related database and then delete the app directory
# from app directory
rake db:drop
cd .. && rm -rf app_a

Rails generator command creates a copy of the framework. The app directory id self contained. Deleting it is enough. If you are using sqlite as your database then you can skip first command.

A: Deleting the app folder will get rid of it.  Be sure to clean up your routes file if needed as well as get rid of a database table if it was created.

A: Just deleting the app folder won't do it.
First, drop the database by doing
rails db:drop
then remove the unused gems by running
gem cleanup
And then removing the folder.

Q: I want to start my portfolio site using ASP.Net and I'm a bit lost about hwo to actually put it on the web I found this site:
www.discountasp.net
They seem cheap enough and have a track record. I decided to host my site with them. Here's where I'm confused.
I host the application (my website) with them and they give me an IP address, right? Users can visit my site by typing in that IP address right? (Of course once I move the index file and create a defauly web folder, etc.)
Next step is buying a domain name right? Like www.mysite.com, right?
Is this the way it's done, or am I doing it wrong?

A: I host the application (my website) with them and they give me an IP address, right?
Correct
Users can visit my site by typing in that IP address right?
No. Your IP address will be shared with dozens, or even hundreds of other websites. Your host will use a feature in IIS called "Hostname Bindings" which will make YOUR website be displayed when the critera for the hostname is matched.
Next step is buying a domain name right? Like www.mysite.com, right?
Sort of. You should really have your domain name BEFORE you choose a hosting package, but you can do it in either order.
There is a missing step there though. Once you have your domain name, you then connect it to a DNS provider (who map your domain name to an IP address), and your DNS provider connects your domain name with the IP in question 1.
Your DNS provider can often be your registrar, or your hosting provider, or another 3rd party.

A: Yes, you'll typically buy (well, register) a domain name, then give that domain name to your hosting provider who will setup the web server to serve your website whenever a request for that domain name comes in.  The processes by which you setup your domain and upload your content will be specific to the hosting company, and you should contact their support department for help with that.  If they don't give you the support you need, well, perhaps choosing someone with "discount" in the name isn't the way to get good support...

A: Well, to get it online on the web, you'll first need to buy some hosting space, and a domain name (like something.com)... i recommend hostingfest.com for your space as they have the cheapest windows plans EVER found on the net (starting at a $1.99/month)... and name.com for your domain purchase...
Since the IP address the host gives you will be shared amongst some other dozen accounts, you'll need to buy a domain to link your account to it (hence the domain name), and you'll need some web space to host your files on the web (Hence the hosting companies)...
I hope i answered your question completely... ask away my friend if u need anything else...

I just hope George R.R. Martin will now get back to work on his A Song of Ice and Fire book series. I have been waiting on the fifth book in that series since 2011!!
Hear hear. I understand that he is (honestly!) putting the finishing touches on book 6. My guess is that the originally planned 7 books in the series never materialize.

Last year for this blockbuster. Anyone looking forward to it?
I've never watched the series, however, considering all the fanfare I've heard over GOT, I'm surprised they are ending it. Are the producers and actors not in favor of staying employed and making money at their craft?

Status: offline This part of the story is over.
There are several new series set in the GRRM universe, including one several thousand years in advance of current events, that are possible followups in discussion for production.
None of them will pick up where they leave off now, though.

Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't.
These days, popular shows die of their own exorbitant weight with more popularity. As the seasons go on, the mains (actors) have to be paid handsomely per episode. The costs for production and special effects also tend to increase. And for actors that have been beholden to the show for the last 10 years, they are generally ready to move onto something else and use their newfound fame to springboard into 'other projects'.
Netflix has recently accelerated this trend by intentionally cancelling its own "Netflix-produced" shows after two or three successful seasons to get ahead of the curve. Writing, directing, production and acting talent is in increasingly short supply for the explosion of content and this is their way of keeping costs down. It's unorthodox, but I get the dollars and cents.

It looks like in 05 we lost 5 people. I haven't seen the bodies though.
I predict the show goes on to let us see yet more people we wanted to make it to the end, not do so.
Seems the show always opts for the unexpected. What that might mean here, I can't tell anymore.
Seems a few characters have a strong opinion at the moment. Then again, some of those characters, a particular young person especially, has previous of having let some of those strong opinions, at least.
I wage a guess those suggested to have died have indeed done so.
So all I am asking is for no wishy-washy endings. That would be so against everything this series has been. Righteous ones always died first.
GRRM was no shrinking violet and did not hesitate to kill characters in gruesome and unexpected ways to prove a point. His series-long thread is that power corrupts and that power derived by corruption and violence corrupts absolutely. That's his 'wheel' moreso than whichever clan figurehead sits atop the throne. So, it would be keeping with his wishes that Daenrys' fall from grace into madness and wanton indiscriminate brutality ultimately destroys her. Someone ends her turn behind the wheel. And someone who does not aspire to the throne will receive it by default.

Status: offline I'm wondering how many King's Landing residents died - we didn't see how many blocks she burned before the episode ended.
Jon/Aegon is now tainted. He was present for the attack and no one in Westeros will likely know or care that he tried to pull his northern troops out of the city when the sack was underway. With his secret out, he is just another Targaryen, rightful heir to the throne or not.
With all of the Scorpions destroyed, how does one take down a dragon? Is the Three-Eyed Raven ready to intervene? Warg into Drogon, who then does a kamikaze into wherever Daenerys is standing? Jon/Aegon exiles himself to empty Castle Black, leaving Sansa and anyone else still alive to pick up the pieces?

Status: offline IMHO, 50% of King's Landing population is gone. More will die of infected wounds, plagues and starvation. Cersei point of view showed clearly how the town was basically reduced to a lake of napalm.
BTW, people on the internet are screaming bloody hell against this "twist" - a twist that was predicted over and over and over since Season 1. Dany even had a vision (in Season 3 IIRC) of the throne room deserted and destroyed, with ashes swirling around like snowflakes. Personally, I wasn't surprised at all.

Status: offline Massive Spoiler Alert. Do not read unless you are fully up to date to Series 8 Episode 5
I think the backlash against the MoD's actions in the last episode has been overdone as it ignores just about everything that has gone before, but I do think her 'change' could have been handled better.
For just about the entire show, Daenerys has been talking in vengeful terms – and it is only her advisors that have stopped her carrying out these actions. For example at Qaath she told the rulers of the city that when her dragons were fully grown she would burn cities to the ground. She said similar to different people at different times, about Mereen, Junkai, Astapor and Volantis. Remember it was only Tyrion that stopped her from burning King's Landing down on numerous occasions.
We also saw, in one of the earlier series, a sequence where Daenerys is walking through the ruins of the throne room. It looks like snow is falling – but I wonder if this was actually supposed to be snow – or was it charred remains (echoes of Schindler's List)?
So essentially we've been told all along that – were it not for her advisors holding her back – the MoD was not averse to destroying her enemies (including civilians) by burning their cities. This kind of makes me wonder why so many – Tyrion, Varys, Ser Jorah, Ser Barriston – were so keen to see her as something different and not just another despot in the making?.... Yes, she was determined to free people from slavery, but the constant reference to burning cities should perhaps have been a bit of a concern – particularly given her family history?
Despite the above, personally I think it would have been better had there been some sort of recognisable catalyst that made Daenerys go full Mad Queen during the battle and after the bells had been rung to signify surrender. After all, this is just plain and simple mass murder for mass murder's sake. For example after the surrender (borrowing from the Japanese) some members of the Lannister army could have continued fighting once the enemies guard was down – maybe killing Grey Worm in the process.
Without a catalyst mid-battle, there was another way this change in the MoD could have been shown better. I suspect the problem is pacing of the show and that there were so few episodes available. This led to everything being rushed. Yes we see John reject her 'love', yes we see the death of two of her 'children', yes we see the murder of Missandei, the death of Ser Jorah and that the people seem to love and gravitate towards John – who she knows has a better claim to the throne. So yes, at the time she made the decision to burn King's Landing it's fair to say she was not 'feeling at her best' but for such an action to be taken, I think there needed to have been more time spent showing her character develop and for the change to full on Mad Queen.
But either way she is now simply a mad-as-a-balloon war criminal for which there is no way back; she has to be stopped. Who will do it (if anyone) and what is in store for the main characters that are left? It comes down to: Sansa and Arya (Stark), Daenerys (Targaryen), Bran (who says he's not really Bran anymore – so what is he?) and Tyrion (Lannister).
The battles (tactics) in this series have been a bit clumsy and just a thought on Drogon and the Scorpions. Drogon destroyed the Iron Fleet in seconds - without a scratch – whereas in the previous episode Rhaegel was killed and Drogon was forced to retreat due to the accuracy of the Scorpion fire. I think there should have been a better explanation for this. The makers tried to show the effect of Drogon coming out of the sun (the old Luftwaffe trick – beware of the Hun in the Sun) by Euron's squinting – but this was insufficient explanation and they should have shown a sequence where the Scorpion teams were unable to fire accurately as they were impeded by the sun's glare. Without that explanation the change in effectiveness of the Scorpions from last episode to this, seemed too much.
Finally just one thought on Jamie. I have no problem with how he ended up going back to Cersei – it's one of GoT's strengths that people are not just 'good' or 'bad' but are multi-faceted, but I wish more time had been allowed (a pacing issue once again) to show his inner turmoil as he battled with 'good' Jamie and 'bad' Jamie – a battle the good could not ultimately win. He clearly was not a nice character – as he told Brienne, he was prepared to kill a child for Cersei and he killed his own cousin to get back to Cersei (not to mention having four children with his sister). But he was also capable of 'good' actions – his protective feelings toward Tyrion from childhood, his determination to save Brienne from rape/death and his realisation that the Knight King needed to be stopped. There should have been more time devoted to his battle with himself. As it was, I fully expected that when he left Brienne to head back to King's Landing, he was going there to kill Cersei. While leading the audience down one path to set up a twist in the tale can be a good thing - this just felt like a let down.

Status: offline Very good observations Warspite.
I was sort of annoyed at how they got Rhaegel. I guess it's the wargamer in me.
If I had dragons, and my objective was defeating the city, I'd have attacked at night, out of the dark, without warning, poof bursts of sudden dragon fire at say 3 in the morning, no more scorpions. Red keep, yeah right. Poof out of the dark, no more Red Keep.
I've enjoyed the show immensely, but why is it movies are always made to use questionable thinking? Are there really no decent wargamers advising the military? I suppose not even in real life.
I recall the Gulf war when they attacked Saddam. WTF? I've been using these strategies vs the other guy in North Africa since the 70s. Norman hardly did anything unique or even original.

You're forgetting about some pretty major characters: Bronn, Gendry, Grayworm and, of course, YNNJS. Gendry is an interesting one, as he has a given foothold / land and a legitimate claim to the throne.
(in reply to warspite1)
Whoops yes I forgot to put John Snow in (I took him out of the Starks and didn't put him back in under Stark/Targaryen ). But I'm not sure the others you've mentioned - and the Onion Lord should be included - are major characters in terms of who ends up on the Iron Throne. I suppose Gendry is a possible because of his lineage, but I don't think there's anything in his story arc to suggest he is a contender - he was out of the series for so long. Surely he would be something of an afterthought if that is where they are going?

Very good observations Warspite.
Those are good questions, MrsWargamer. The Dothraki were accused for doing a Charge of the Light Brigade. Then again, that is a historical event by a country very skilled of all things military at the time. Go figure.
Edit: Of course, the Light Bde was supposed to attack another enemy position instead of the one they charged, so FUBAR happens even with the best of intentions or plans.
Mmmmm that's pushing it somewhat . But I think there circumstances are massively different.
This was an army attacking a castle. Defending outside the castle walls was not clever - and charging with unsupported cavalry at the start of the set-piece battle was ludicrous... The defenders supposedly had time to come up with a plan...
Without being arsed to look up Gendry's appearances, it seems to me that he's been involved in nearly every season at some stage. His hookup with Arya and dashed marriage proposal hopes brings him right back into the fold again. After Arya's change of heart (I thought that silly, but there you go) re: offing Cersei before the Cleganebowl, she may yet reconsider a life without assassination and revenge as a useful pastime.
Bronn's story arc is yet incomplete and I feel he will play an important final role, but don't know how. I don't see the sell sword settling down to the promised Riverrun or High Garden, per promises made him. Of course, with Cersei gone and done (and Tyrion too, I believe), who will be left to ratify or confirm promises made him?
Tyrion has shot his bolt re: his story arc. He's mortgaged his life to buy freedom for his brother. A steep price that was quickly squandered by Jamie's ill-conceived effort to extract Cersei from King's Landing. Sure, Jamie's rescue was unavoidably delayed (being stabbed twice in the kidneys will do that to your planning), but it eventually came to naught. Now his life is-nay MUST BE-forfeit in keeping with Daenery's warnings about failing her. She doesn't strike me as the sort that's in a frame of mind to offer mercy at this stage.
Defending outside the castle walls was not clever - and charging with unsupported cavalry at the start of the set-piece battle was ludicrous... The defenders supposedly had time to come up with a plan...
Don't get me started on the planning and execution failures on that battle please. Such elementary disregard for any tactical planning really detracted from the episode as far as I'm concerned. Sure, the special effects and melee were remarkable, but didn't overcome wanton stupidity in the battle planning.
As it was, I fully expected that when he left Brienne to head back to King's Landing, he was going there to kill Cersei. While leading the audience down one path to set up a twist in the tale can be a good thing - this just felt like a let down.
Yeah, I thought about that too. I liked it though. At the end of all things, we go back to whom we love and cherish. He never could shake his love for Cersei as a sibling, lover and-oh yeah-mother of his children. Apart from sentimental boyish fielty to his brother, who else should he spend the end of his life with? A hasty hookup that he just fell in with? The Northerners? Bronn? Jamie's choice to return to King's Landing and extricate his sister were also his word of honor (remember the promise when Tyrion freed him?) All the pieces fell as I think they should for Jamie's story arc. Tragic. But then again, have you noticed that many of the characters from this show meet with tragic ends that were of their own doing?

Not to mention it's a short walk to the Brightwater shops, tavern, and endless waterside walkways!
Inspect this magnificent property today! As this will not last long at all!


Now this hiking and backpacking trail is pretty long, so do pack enough food to last the whole trip. Willamette Divide Trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time, so you get pretty much the same conditions along the whole backcountry trail. With its 7.6 miles of walking distance it's a mid length backcountry trek. This backpacking and hiking trail has a total elevation difference of 884 feet which is a lower than average number. This hiking and backpacking trail sometimes gets very dry, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. The time needed for this hike is roughly 7 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. This is a two-ended backpacking and hiking trail with two trailheads, so backcountry trekking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back.

Restoring Our Democracy
Back to Issues
The most powerful office in our country has always been, and must continue to be, that of the citizen. Today, however, the corrupt influence of money in our democracy, along with efforts to suppress voting, are drowning out the voices of the American people and destroying faith in our government. When a few individuals and giant corporations can spend hundreds of millions of dollars influencing our elections and pushing their personal agendas, they overpower the interests of everyday people. Everyday people are further silenced when they are stripped of their most fundamental right—the right to vote. Without it, we are powerless to exercise any other right our Constitution guarantees.
In order to reverse the undue influence of money in politics, we must put power back into the hands of the people, which is why Colin supports legislative efforts, including a constitutional amendment, to overturn Citizens United. Colin doesn't accept corporate PAC campaign donations. He is a voice for North Texans, not donors or corporate special interests.
This issue is personal to Colin: as a voting rights attorney who has seen the negative impact of voter suppression firsthand, Colin knows that these practices must end. The voices of North Texans must be heard, and our government must return to working for the people that elect them—not the powerful special interests that fund their campaigns.
Colin was an early leader, calling for wholesale reform of our elections to root out corruption, get big money out of politics and ensure every eligible voter can easily exercise their constitutional right to vote and has continued to be a leading voice for protecting voting rights and American Democracy. Colin led the charge to pass H.R. 1 the For The People Act which:
Expands access to voting by creating automatic voter registration, creates a universal no-excuse vote by mail, makes Election Day a national holiday, expands early voting and removes harmful barriers to voting that impact too many folks in Texas.
Ends partisan gerrymandering and prevents politicians from picking their voters instead of the other way around.
Invests in election security by increasing federal support to ensure our elections are protected.
Eliminates dark money and includes the DISCLOSE Act, which would shine a light on dark money special interest spending in our elections, requiring disclosure. The act is in response to harmful Supreme Court decisions that allow shady outside groups to spend anonymously without disclosing who is funding them.
Empowers ordinary people, and remakes how campaigns are funded by creating a matching system for small-dollar donations that encourages everyday Americans to participate in democracy and decreases the power of big donors. Our democracy belongs to the people and this move will help get big money out of politics.
Ensures strong rules and oversight by remaking the Federal Election Commission so it can hold bad actors accountable and finally common-sense rules to rein in super PACs and other outside groups.
Colin also introduced the Know Your Polling Place Act, which would require voters to be notified of changes in their polling places, and the Shell Company Abuse Act, which would make it illegal to use a shell company to conceal foreign spending in US elections. These bills passed as part of H.R. 1.
This bill was modified with a bill to modernize and strengthen the Voting Rights Act in the John R. Lewis Freedom to Vote Act, which the House passed Colin has worked to pass into law.
In Congress, Colin has been a champion of legislation reinstating and modernizing the Voting Rights Act, to halt new voter suppression laws that have had a clear impact on voter turnout. This includes eliminating unreasonable and discriminatory voter ID laws.
Colin also believes we need to restore voting rights for the formerly incarcerated: 4.7 million formerly incarcerated Americans have been stripped of the right to vote by discriminatory state laws across the country. This must end.

Regardless of the subject of the meeting, the mere mention of a closed door is likely to send a wave of dread and panic over you—even if you've been doing a great job.

This is the most common view of those who have studied this question.
Advantage: This model can account for the similarities.
Problem: This model cannot account for the differences.
The Acts of Paul contains no polemic against the Paul of the Pastorals. Corssen notes that the polemic is entirely the other way — the Pastorals unrelentingly attack the image of the Paul found in the Acts. The letter is the sharper weapon with its authoritative first-person "I"; the narrative shows no attempt to counter the letter with a higher "we" authority nor does it address the tone of the Paul of the Pastorals.
Scholarly attempts to explain this have not gained traction and been out of favour since 1968.
Using the Alex Orlik's classic article "Epic Laws of Folk Narrative" MacDonald demonstrates the reasons for seeing the Acts of Paul as being heavily dependent on second century oral legends in Asia Minor. If, as is possible, the author of the Pastoral Epistles knew of these oral legends he would have opposed their portrayal of Paul.
Account for the similarities better than the other models. Why are the similarities are not exact? (In the Acts Hermogenes is associated with Demas, in the Pastorals, with Phygelus; in the Acts Onesiphrous lives in Iconium, in the Pastorals, in Ephesus.) Such variations can be explained as either the author of the Acts being careless in how he used the Pastorals, or as the sorts of variations one expects from the vagaries of oral storytelling. Personal and place names are often substituted and mixed in the transmissions of this sort of storytelling without affecting the structure or meaning of the story.
I have placed the chart for a quick overview of a comparison of the Acts of Paul with the Pastorals here.

Hellenic Node is also, as the name implies, a node I operate and maintain in order to support Turtle Network.
In short, my revenue model is based on ad placements and content sharing which is possible by utilizing Google Adsense as well as Facebook's audience network. In short we operate at the moment around 40 Facebook Pages (almost 1,5 Million unique Likes) and we lead all this people to our media websites in Greece. This model has been proven to work and for this reason I would like to take it mainstream and share it with our Hellenic Node and Turtle Network community.
Our target is to offer this model so each member can expect a complete return on investment within 13 months or less. More details about the model's structure will be mentioned shortly.
I have been running this business model from 2014 with outstanding profit so i think its about time to take it to the next level within "Cryptocurency world" and with Hellenic Node (HN) .
Hellenic Node will run a real business model with the target to get our investment back in 12-13 months and from that time it will be a win win situation over the months and for ever. The only way our model is at fatal risk is if Facebook itself is shut down.
Allow me to describe the process of how this project is able to succeed. A total of 5 staff members are needed, three people will upload content, another person will translate accordingly and the fifth person will fill in where it is most needed at any given time, be it posting content or translating.
From our staff members, the content uploaders will work 7 hours each per day. Their main duty is to upload content on a daily basis. The content varies as sometimes it is original and other times it references other authors. All the articles will also be published on our Facebook pages.
We create content in the form of articles » these are published on our Facebook pages » People click to read them » Traffic is directed to our website(s) » revenue is generated.
With the revenue generated each month we will purchase $TN, $WGR and $WAVES from the open market and distribute proportionally to qualified $HN supporters. The minimum requirement to qualify is holding $HN 100,000 in your TurtleNetwork wallet.
We create the first line up of our Facebook Pages.
60 to 90 days are necessary to complete our first Facebook lineup. With as few as 10 pages our model begins to generate revenue. One of our main goals is to garner 5,000,000 "Likes" under our model.
Our work begins as soon as the soft cap is fulfilled and allocated funds for Tier 1 released. Soon thereafter….
– Every month Hellenic Node will distribute $TN $WGR and $WAVES to all wallets with a balance of $HN 100,000 or more.
– The distribution of rewards will be proportional to the total amount of $HN held in the wallet during the previous month (random snapshots will be taken during month prior to distribution).
– The 1st distribution will take place 90 days after successfully completing our ICO, thereafter every distribution will be on a monthly basis.
– Once ICO ends and Soft Cap is reached, 20% of remaining tokens will be AirDropped to supporters while the remaining 80% will be AirDropped on a specified schedule (to be determined after 20% of tokens are AirDropped).
10 Facebook pages created, each page costs $2,000. - Main website created - 2 additional websites created as alias.
10 additional Facebook pages created (thus driving more traffic to our websites). - At that point Hellenic Node will have 30 facebook pages and the monthly distribution of rewards enabled.
10 additional Facebook pages created (thus driving more traffic to our websites). - Business model upgraded to facilitate implementation on Instagram and Twitter.
10 additional Facebook pages created (thus driving more traffic to our websites). - Complete version of our Facebook program that will lead to highest possible ROI.
We understand how important it is to provide data in order to back up our claims and to show you that our proposal is not only serious and promising, but more importantly, it is a proven model. In order to prove to you that this model is sucessful we have prepared a package which contains Alexa ranking of my previous work in Greece, invoices from Google Adsense as well as Facebook which show actual revenue earned. As long as we reach our Soft Cap we can guarantee that our business model will launch and that our investors will be rewarded accordingly within the timeline projected to fulfill ROI.
Below you can see some screenshots of my current working model which generates respective returns as shown on the invoices.
This project is not a shot in the dark or based on hopeful analysis or statistics.
As mentioned before, this is a working model which has been proven successful over the past 4 years. It is not a new concept or an idea waiting to be tested with all the risk resting on investors' shoulders.
We need to sell 48.500.000 tokens at the price of USD $0.0017 minimum to run the project. If we don't hit the soft cap all the funds will be refunded immediately.
If the Hard Cap is reached, we will be able to create up to 50 Facebook pages which in turn can garner around 5.2 million "Likes" in total. Each page will be able to amass around 150,000 "Likes" under my proven and currently working model.
Our main priority is to be transparent at every turn of the process. Each page will cost between USD $2,000 ~ USD $2,500. All respective records for expenses involved in creating each page will be provided to our community.
Current $HN in circulation amounts to 5,382,315. Only 8 wallets hold more than $HN 100,000.
Since total supply of $HN is 100,000,000 and considering the allocated amount for ICO is 66,250,000 that means a total of $HN 28,367,685 will be burnt immediately after ICO tokens are sold or the crowdsale comes to an end and Soft Cap is met.
Nonetheless, should the Hard Cap not be attained, we will be able to proceed with a set number of pages according to the amount collected by the end of the crowdsale.
Our project will be launched on TurtleNetwork and $HN tokens will be distributed within 15 days after ICO ends.


Chris Christie didn't actually get rid of Common Core in New Jersey.
Chris Christie Claims He Got Rid of Common Core in New Jersey. That's Baloney.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, left, and Sen. Marco Rubio spar in the Republican presidential debate on Jan. 14, 2016, in South Carolina.
In Thursday night's Republican debate, Sen. Marco Rubio made a pointed attack against New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, accusing one of his main rivals for a top spot in the New Hampshire primary of being pro–Common Core. Christie, though, thought he had a killer response: "Common Core has been eliminated in New Jersey." Too bad for Christie, the actual standards that constitute Common Core are still alive and well in his state. All Christie eliminated was the name.
I was a teacher in New Jersey when Christie first started hemming and hawing over Common Core's waning national popularity. But not a single teacher I knew panicked. They knew he wasn't serious—and they were right. New Jersey is still using the exact same tests as before, ones that are aligned with the exact same Common Core standards for what students should master by each grade level. Christie may no longer call New Jersey's educational standards "Common Core," but for students in the state there is absolutely no difference.
In his 2015 announcement that New Jersey's testing standards would be changed, Christie said he wanted new recommendations by the end of the year, which itself was a significant indication that he never intended to alter the standards in any serious way. Coming up with an entirely new set of standards takes years, not months. For Christie, Common Core was always intended to stay intact, with or without the name.
This tactic of conservative governors rejecting the unpopular-in-red-states name while keeping the substance isn't new. Of the more than 40 states that have adopted the Common Core, one-third of them are now calling it something else, almost certainly out of political expediency. Changing the name allowed these states to quell the anger of people who knew very little about the standards themselves, without actually making any meaningful changes.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich, also a Republican primary candidate, adopted the standards in his state, which calls it "Ohio's Learning Standards." Go to the website for these standards and you won't see "Common Core" written anywhere, even though that's where the standards come from. Kasich himself—a Common Core supporter—almost never says the words Common Core on the campaign trail.
Jeb Bush also supports the standards, but his home state of Florida also calls them by a more voter-friendly euphemism: "Next Generation Sunshine State Standards." Schools run by the Department of Defense (known as DoDEA schools) never called the standards "Common Core," avoiding the fight to begin with, even though national standards are an obvious boon to military children, who frequently move across the country and have to restart their education every time.
"Defuse" is exactly what Christie, and every other governor who chose to rename the standards, was doing. And, frankly, that's all they could ever do. Let Christie's experience be a lesson for every single candidate on that stage that Common Core isn't going anywhere. Not even Sen. Ted Cruz—who said he would "repeal every word" of the standards—could make that happen.
Tests costing millions of dollars have been written. Teachers have changed their entire curricula. Textbooks have been redeveloped and distributed. Children have changed the way they approach school. None of this will change, and attempting to force it to would cost millions of dollars and take a decade. That's why Christie could only change the name, and that's why Cruz cannot simply eradicate Common Core in the event he is sworn in next January.
Education hasn't been a big issue in this election on either side, but it behooves the candidates to tell the truth on the rare occasions on which it is mentioned. The Common Core is alive and well in New Jersey. And it will be alive and well across the country, regardless of what these candidates say they might do as president.


I remember the days of hardly being able to keep my eyes open because the night had been a long one. Full of ups and downs, cries tearing me from my warm and cozy bed.
I remember the horrible tantrums that sometimes occurred because of offering the wrong color shirt or putting juice in the cup with a red ball instead of the one shaped like a dog. And I remember the effort of disciplining myself to not give in to the tantrums, even though on most days giving in would have been much easier.
I remember the days of trying so hard to teach my toddlers how to put their toys and clothes away, only to turn around and see everything in a pile on the floor once again. And I'll never forget the time I let them try to pour the chocolate milk themselves and the milk jug fell so hard on the floor that it splashed up to the ceiling.
I want to encourage you moms to keep going. Keep doing what you are doing, even though right now it may seem pointless and fruitless. I am currently on the other side of babyhood and toddlerhood—at the pre-teen and teen years. I am enjoying all the fruit of my labor from those early years.
The nights of being awakened by a crying baby have been replaced with fun nights of staying up late to watch a movie and play games with a teen.
The horrible tantrums have been replaced with a pre-teen who truly understands that he will not always get his way, and who understands and accepts compromise.
The Sundays and Wednesdays of wiggly children have been replaced with children who like to discuss the sermons and who enjoy Gospel Meetings and Lectureships.
I want to encourage you while you are in the midst of these crazy, chaotic days. Take moments throughout the day to take snap-shots in your mind. Use all 5 senses to really be present with your child. Notice those wide eyes and chubby hands. Listen to how your baby says words that are not quite correct or enjoy hearing him say, "Mama." Really absorb and feel those tender hugs and sticky kisses. Smell the sweet baby smell that everyone loves so much. Snap-shot those moments so you can keep them in your mind as your children grow older. Enjoy those moments with your children, because those moments will become precious memories.
Now that I am an "older" woman on the other side, I can say that it is such an encouragement for me to see moms who bring their little ones to church. I remember how hard it is and I know the struggle. I know that there are sometimes hurtful comments made; but, rest assured that for every hurtful comment, there are many more people who love you and that are encouraged by you.
I also want to encourage you to understand that you don't have to be perfect or be perfectly put together. No one is perfect, no matter how they seem. There is a great truck commercial that I just love! The ad is for new (perfect) trucks; but, the point of the ad is for people who own the trucks to tell the stories about what made the dings and scratches on their trucks. They are embracing the fact that their trucks are not perfect. It is neat because they are sharing what makes their trucks unique and different from the others. Embrace the quirks of your family. Tell the stories about what makes your family not perfect, but unique.
One of the things that I hear most from moms with really young children is that they have no time for Bible Study or prayer. I understand how hard it is. If you can just get in a little time here and there it will be worth it. One thing that I have found helpful to my prayer life is to have a focus subject for each day. Monday I pray for friends and family; Tuesday I pray for my children; Wednesday I pray for my husband, and so on throughout the week. I also keep a prayer notebook (nothing fancy) where I write down the things that I am praying for and keep the list to use every time I pray. This resource helps me to stay focused.
I really like Bible Marking because I can pick a subject and stay focused on that particular subject.
I have actually been going through and highlighting the verses. Don't worry about starting with January—I am behind and trying to catch up myself. I am determined to get through this plan even if it takes me longer than this year to do it.
Kathy Pollard started a group with women who are currently writing The Book of Psalms. The goal is to write one Psalm per day; but, I am slower than most people, so I have been doing ½ a Psalm per day. It is ok, though, because I am gleaning a lot from what I do write. And you don't have to write Psalms. Pick a book in the Bible that you feel would most benefit you.
Even a small amount of prayer and Bible study every day will be very beneficial for your daily life.
Be encouraged and know that even though there are hard days, these days will pay off in ways that you may not be able to imagine right now. Keep going! It may not seem like it, but your precious babies are learning so much and they are going to grow into adults that you will be proud of.

Rio Grande National Forest Plan
The Rio Grande National Forest Plan Fails to Provide Adequate Protections for Wildlife
Mary Jo Brooks
DENVER, CO — The National Wildlife Federation, along with its Colorado and New Mexico affiliates, Conejos Clean Water and nearly 5,000 concerned citizens, filed a formal objection to the final Rio Grande National Forest plan yesterday. The plan, which will guide land management decisions for the next two decades, fails to protect important wildlife corridors from oil and gas development and new road construction.
"Protecting the ability for wildlife to roam in the Upper Rio Grande watershed is critical to ensure that our elk, pronghorn, mule deer and Rio Grande cutthroat trout populations continue to survive and thrive," said Jeremy Romero, regional connectivity coordinator at the National Wildlife Federation. "The Rio Grande's draft plan included important protections for two special interest areas that are key for wildlife migration corridors and high quality habitat. Unfortunately, the final plan excluded these protections. We are seeking to fix that."
Stretching from southern Colorado into northern New Mexico, the Upper Rio Grande is considered one of the best connected wildlife landscapes in the country, but in recent years, development has put pressure on these areas. The initial Rio Grande plan recognized the Spruce Hole area as the lynchpin to preserving migration pathways, because it connects with special management areas in New Mexico. The Chama Basin special interest area is equally important. Not only does it encompass the headwaters of the Río Chama --which is the drinking water source for the town of Chama—this area is rich in biological diversity. The Rio Grande's final plan failed to endorse these protections. Elk, pronghorn and mule deer rely on these areas for migration, breeding and food sources as they travel across the landscape into New Mexico.
"Living with wildlife is part of who we are as Coloradans. Protecting these two areas not only supports wildlife but is key to preserving the economic health of nearby communities which depend on outdoor recreation," said Anna Lee Vargas, director of project management and community outreach at Conejos Clean Water in Antonito, CO.
"Big game rely on the migration pathways in these two areas to survive. If the Rio Grande National Forest added back the protections that were in the draft plan, it would help this region become a model for the nation in how to balance the needs of wildlife, along with the needs of growing population and expanding development," said Suzanne O'Neill, executive director of the Colorado Wildlife Federation. "Since the plan will be in effect for the next two decades, it's essential to get these protections in place now."

"We covered a few questions the student had on determining areas between intersecting functions. Then we moved on to determining formulas for cross sectional areas (circles, squares and triangles) given the profile function (circle) for the edge of the cross section. He seemed to grasp this concept quickly and we correctly completed several exercises from his text book. We ended up setting up the integrals for volumes of revolution based on circular cross sections of solids given their profile function. "
"The student has a math final next week and was given some review packets to work through over the next week. She had already worked through most of the packets, but wanted help answering some questions, as well as some corrections. The student needed help on a probability question and a geometry equation, but for the most part, she answered the other questions of this type correctly on her packet. We went through the whole review packet to make sure she understands all concepts that are covered on her final. We did practice problems from each subtopic and she needed the most help with scientific notation and Pythagorean Theorem problems. Once it seemed that the student understood how to answer these questions, she wanted to move on to working on her science review packet. We started with a review of photosynthesis vocabulary and processes, and included a review of plant biology and tropism. She still had her textbook available to use as a reference so that we could make sure we were not leaving any ideas out of her review. Her closest exam is on Monday and that is her Spanish final, so she wanted to review her practice exam questions. We focused heavily on conjugations since she has continually had a lot of problems getting this to stick. I've noticed that the student struggles with vocabulary, but specifically, she rarely remembers the meanings of common verbs. I had the student make a chart of useful verbs, their definitions, as well as conjugations of mainly stem changing verbs. She is expected to know these for her test, so I instructed her to practice writing out the conjugations over and over to get them properly memorized for the final. "
"We worked through an online test that covered trigonometric functions, their identities, sinusoidal graphs and their transformations, and using the unit circle. We worked quickly, leaving some topics to be explained in more detail at the following session."
"We went over linear programming and worked on word problems to identify optimal solutions/profits, etc. The student was comfortable with rearranging inequalities to solve for y in order to graph the functions. We went over how to determine if a solution set is bounded, unbounded, infeasible, or if there are alternate optimal solutions. We'll discuss more about alternate optimal solutions during our next session, and I asked her to review matrices, especially multiplication, before she takes the unit test."
"In algebra we talked about the quadratic formula, which was time consuming, but not difficult for the student. He must have figured out completing the square on his own, because he got all of his homework questions correct. His next test should be coming up soon, so he should work more on the practice problems I assigned him. I gave him all of my solutions for the chapter 9 problems so that he could check his work. In science we reviewed naming compounds and balancing chemical equations. He had forgotten both of those things, so it started a little rocky, but got better very quickly as we did more practice problems. He should practice balancing equations a little more before his test tomorrow. "
"We were able to get through a lot of material. The student completed math homework on complex fractions and additional practice problems. He's doing very well so far with the current math concepts, with some small errors. We also covered a little bit of geography and his new science vocabulary (cell structure) and he did the related homework. I will prepare some supplemental resources on cell structure to give him at our next session since it is brand new material and a lot to comprehend. "
"We went over dimensional analysis, gas laws, and empirical formula calculations. The student had great attitude toward the material reviewed. "
"We continued with trigonometry, covering the sum and difference identities and how to apply them. We're going to continue with trigonometry for at least the next week while trying to develop algebra skills. The student was still very excited and eager to learn and I think she will do very well if she keeps up with that attitude."
"It was our first session and we solved a few problems together. The student has enough skills to do well in her AP class; she just needs more time to reorganize all the concepts learned in class in a more usable way. I am satisfied with this session because the student responded well to my teaching of new concepts and was able to follow and add more to the problem solutions that I did."
"In today's session, the student completed her physics review packet on momentum and collisions. We did encounter a few problems where the math was tricky, but she was still able to understand the physics part of those problems. She is doing much better with collisions and is getting more efficient at completing problems as well as knowing where to start. She should continue to review these problems just to keep the concepts fresh in her mind for whenever they have an exam, but so far she is doing really well and I am very impressed. We also did a quick calculus review before her test this morning and she really seemed to have integrals and rates down completely. We will see how this exam goes and how much work she gets over the next few days, then evaluate what needs to be done in future sessions."
"The student brought a lab assignment today and we solved the problems that he had answered incorrectly. We discussed how to calculate the energy of excited electrons from the colors of the flames of a given material. We also identified whether the a given material is a covalent, ionic or metallic compound from the measurement and observation of conductivity, solubility and smell. I explained to him how to assign quantum numbers to electrons using principal, angular, magnetic and spin quantum numbers."

Munich state prosecutor Kai Graeber announced the number today after police targeted the flagship International Ski Federation (FIS) event in Seefeld last month.
Nine arrests were made there, including five skiers - Max Hauke and Dominik Baldauf of Austria, Alexei Poltoranin of Kazakhstan and the Estonian duo of Karel Tammjarv and Andreas Veerpalu.
Police claimed to have smashed an international doping ring with further arrests made in Erfurt in Germany.
These included doctor Mark Schmidt, accused of being instrumental to the scheme.
Austrian cross-country skier Johannes Dürr, whose revelations in a documentary on ARD prompted the raid, was also later arrested while cyclists Stefan Denifl and Georg Preidler then came forward to admit blood doping.
Graeber told a press conference today that three winter and two summer sports were involved in the doping ring.
Neither the sports, countries or athletes involved were revealed.
The scheme was allegedly run from 2011 until the arrests in Seefeld on February 27.
Blood was reportedly taken around the world to Germany, Austria, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Croatia, Slovenia and the American state of Hawaii.
"The time frame is from the end of 2011 to 2019 in Seefeld," Graeber told a news conference.
"There are three-figure cases of blood being taken out and then being reintroduced worldwide.
"We have here an exciting story with a lot of twists and the final chapter has not yet been written."
Properties across Austria and Germany have been targeted as part of the probe.
A video reportedly of Hauke in the middle of a blood transfusion also emerged and quickly went viral.
Doping is considered a type of fraud in Austria due to the prize money and endorsements athletes could gain.
Following the raid in Seefeld, the FIS claimed it would "fulfil its mandate as the governing body to ensure the integrity of the sport remains intact".
The President of the Austrian Ski Federation Peter Schröcksnadel admitted he was "shocked".
