This webinar is for any teacher in grades K-12 who wants to learn practical classroom management strategies that can be immediately implemented into any classroom. Serena Pariser's new book Real Talk About Classroom Management departs from the traditional approach of teaching obedience and instead shares how to empower students, build positive relationships, and create independent and curious learners. Serena shares her story of growing from a teary-eyed first year teacher to Teacher of the Year, international consultant, and Fulbright scholar.
Schools that fail Black boys are not extraordinary. In fact, they're all-too ordinary and if we're to succeed in shifting outcomes for Black boys, we must first change the way school is "done." That's where the eight in ten teachers who are White women fit in. This webinar is designed to help us all embrace the deep realities and thrilling potential of this crucial American task.
Do you take advantage of wrong answers? Do you consider what they tell you, why they happened, or what you might do next? In this webinar, John SanGiovanni addresses actions that teachers can take to mine the gaps in student understanding. It examines a process for selecting quality tasks, anticipating student thinking, determining evidence of understanding and misunderstanding, and identifying next steps. The webinar will feature mathematics tasks K-2, 3-5, and 6-8 grade bands.
School leaders cannot be effective if they lack the courage to embrace accountability, build trust, and take risks. In this webinar, Dr. Cathy Lassiter describes four types of courageous leadership that can be applied to the most difficult school leadership challenges.

Student-centered coaching puts student learning front-and-center. It is an evidence-based instructional coaching model that shifts the focus from 'fixing' teachers to collaborating with them to design instruction that targets student outcomes. Join Diane Sweeney for a webinar that will highlight a collection of coaching practices that are outcomes-based and student-centered. This session is recommended for K-12 instructional coaches in any area of specialization, principals, and district leaders.
In this webinar, Nancy Frey and Douglas Fisher discuss how building an environment where students progress through relevant and challenging content allows you to create a classroom teeming with discussion and purposeful activity. They also share a framework for making daily improvements—centered around relationships, clarity, and challenge—that increases student learning and helps you manage your classroom's success.
Empowering students in their own learning through self- and peer assessment has one of the highest impacts on learning. However, to do so requires teacher teams to understand and implement the five core formative assessment practices with depth and rigor. Learn how Impact Teams implement a simple three-step classroom protocol that develops student ownership of learning.
Classroom discussion is one of the best vehicles for learning how to think, make moral decisions, and understand another person's point of view. Research indicates that most teachers talk too much in the classroom and don't wait long enough for students to respond. In this webinar James Nottingham and Martin Renton translate the most up-to-date research into practical strategies that improve student learning.
How do we move beyond surface learning to reach deeper comprehension? What strategies help students make connections between ideas and use their learning to unlock new situations? This webinar will share practical ways to help students build the foundational understanding needed to take their learning to the next level. In an increasingly complicated world, it is essential that we honor the research-rich past and harness children's natural curiosity as we look to the future. Join us to find out how we can prepare students to tackle complex problems with deep, conceptual understanding.
A key skill used by high-gain teachers to communicate high expectations for all learners is creating a talk environment of robust student-to-student discourse. Join Jon Saphier, author of High Expectations Teaching, to learn the key teaching moves that create rigorous student dialogue, where students talk more than teachers and display a high level of thinking.
What matters most in raising student achievement?
Research identifies collective efficacy—the shared belief that what we do really matters—as the #1 factor. When teachers believe that, together, they can positively impact student learning, it results in a number of productive patterns of behaviour. Join us to learn more about what collective efficacy is, why it's important, and how to foster efficacy to ensure equity, promote well-being, and enhance public confidence in education.
Hallways, parking lots, staff rooms—these are all places where you and your staff have conversations every day. What if you could use these opportunities to build your staff's resiliency and empower them to reach their goals. In this webinar, John Campbell and Christian van Nieuwerburgh introduce a proven, accessible, and usable framework to increase your interpersonal effectiveness and grow your ability to coach your staff to overcome obstacles and create their own solutions.
The proof is born out by test results: our non-native speakers learn faster and achieve more when general ed and EL teachers co-plan and co-deliver instruction in the very same classroom. That's why you won't want to miss this webinar from EL experts Maria Dove and Andrea Honigsfeld. Step by step, they'll walk you through the entire collaborative instruction cycle, along seven potential models from which to choose.
Modern students are capable of wielding digital tools to accelerate the realization of their limitless learning potential and make significant contributions to the larger global community. Yet this vision for disruptive innovation in education has been on the distant horizon, unclear, unmeasurable, and as yet unattained.
In this Webinar, educational futurist Dr. Sonny Magana will share his T3 Framework for innovation in education from his new book Disruptive Classroom Technologies. The T3 Framework organizes educational technology use into three hierarchically ordered domains: translational, transformational, and transcendent. The strategies in the T3 Framework have an observed effect size of 1.6, or the equivalent of three of more years of achievement in a single academic year.
When it comes to improving practice, few professional texts can rival the impact felt by Jim Knight's Instructional Coaching. Now, one decade of research and hundreds of in-services later, Jim takes that work a significant step further with The Impact Cycle. Attend this webinar to learn how Jim's all-new instructional coaching cycle can help teachers and, in turn, their students improve in clear, measurable ways.
Jim Burke knows personally, both from his own teaching and his consulting work with schools nationwide, that the standards—whether state-based or Common Core—provide a set of core beliefs about what students need to learn to be academically- and career-ready and mirror best teaching practices. Jim finds that the standards are both validating—confirming those practices teachers are already implementing in their classrooms—and liberating—providing research-based structures and strategies that help teachers and students engage in important ideas and inquiry.
Do you have the will and the vision to ensure that your actions reflect the stated values of the organization? This webinar will present opportunities to transform from unintentionally participating in practices that marginalize students and their communities to being committed to making the education of all students a common priority. Presented by Trudy Arriaga, superintendent of a highly diverse school district and author of Opening Doors: An Implementation Template for Cultural Proficiency, this webinar will help you gain the knowledge and skills for applying the core values of cultural proficiency in daily practice.
Every teacher wants engaged students. No student wants to be bored. So why isn't every classroom teeming with discussion and purposeful activity centered on the day's learning expectations? In this webinar, Doug Fisher, Nancy Frey, and Dominique Smith will outline a framework for engagement and concrete strategies that will enable you to create a classroom culture rooted in relationships, clarity, and challenge.

Case Update: when contractors are "Workers" rather than being "Self-Employed"
The Court of Appeal has today determined the case of Pimlico Plumbers & Charlie Mullins v Gary Smith, which concerned the employment status of Gary Smith and the other plumbers more generally.
Mr Smith was VAT registered and paid taxed on a self-employed basis, but worked solely for Pimlico Plumbers for six years, by whom he said he was "tightly controlled". He argued he was entitled to basic workers' rights including the National Minimum Wage/National Living Wage, paid holiday and the ability to bring discrimination claims. Pimlico Plumbers maintained that he was genuinely self-employed.
The Court of Appeal today has agreed with the previous decision of the Employment Tribunal that the plumbers were workers and not self-employed contractors. However, they have also agreed that the workers did not reach the required "gold standard" to be considered as employees.
This case is another example of these type of disputes, many of which involve individuals working in the "gig economy", and follows hot on the heels of the Uber drivers and the CitySprint cyclist's decisions. The fact that the Court of Appeal, the highest court to consider such a case, has found in favour of worker status in this instance, indicates the inclination of the courts to establish the basic worker rights for individuals wherever possible and give them some form of protection. It is increasingly clear that if, as a business, you wish to ensure that your contractors remain genuinely self-employed, the contracts they are working under need to be completely watertight.

People could soon be being put through their paces on an outdoor boot camp if plans to convert a meadow near Hethersett into an assault course are approved.
Obstacles including climbing walls, balance beams and scramble nets would be constructed in the field south of Norwich Road, near to the Thickthorn Park and Ride.
The plans submitted to South Norfolk Council by Brad Williams, director of Norfolk-based 121 Gym, which provides personal training services, would include a boot camp using locally sourced equipment, such as tractor tyres and cargo nets.
They also include proposals for an outdoor gym and a children's play area with a running and walking track along the circumference on the site.
There would be no permanent buildings as part of the development with the reception housed in a single portable cabin and portaloos on the site.
The plans submitted state the site would operate seven days a week between 6.30am and 11.30am and then from 2.30pm and 6.30pm Monday to Friday with extended hours at the weekend.

Today we were up at 5:45, ate a hot breakfast and were out of camp by 6:30. Sunrise was close to 7, so we had some time to get out of camp in time to find a subject in the warm morning light.
The group was split into two, as half left an hour earlier to make it to the hot air balloon liftoff location. The rest of us went on a game drive as normal.
We worked the area near Makoma Hill, in hopes of getting a shot of zebras in the foreground with the 3 hot air balloons in the background. Our timing was off, so we weren't able to make it happen. We had great general game viewing all morning, and worked our way towards the Masai Kopjes towards lunchtime.
After the Masai Kopjes, we kept heading east and south to the Barafu Kopjes in time for a picnic lunch. I absolutely love picnics in the bush, and this one was no exception.
For the rest of the afternoon, we had more lions, a lone female cheetah, and a large herd of elephant. And, of course, all of the general game that we could ask for.
Today was a long day, and my being tired from jetlag doesn't help as I write the post. More to follow tomorrow.

The OpenGL code used to generate these images lives in this github project.
When working with Catmull-Clark subdivision surfaces in the absence of tessellation shaders, we typically perform some sort of uniform refinement on the CPU, perhaps using OpenSubdiv.
One of the nice properties of Catmull-Clark is that you always get a clean quad mesh after one level of subdivision, even though the input topology can be composed of arbitrary polygons.
Subdivision surfaces aren't the only source of quad meshes nowadays; they can also crop up with terrain rendering and visualization of parametric functions.
Ideally, you could send an indexed quad mesh to OpenGL, but QUADS aren't in Modern OpenGL. You could use indexed TRIANGLES, but that's less than ideal because of the repeated indices.
This could be improved by creating a buffer with sharpness information, similar to the sharpness tags that you can give to OpenSubdiv. The vertex shader could use this give weights to the adjacent facets.
Keep in mind that tessellation shaders are the way to go if you're being truly modern, in which case most of this article is moot. Moreover, Pixar's OpenSubdiv library provides tessellation shaders for you. However, if you need to support older platforms (e.g., Apple's current OpenGL implementation) then you might want to consider the techniques discussed in this article. Check out my github repo for a code sample, which builds on OS X and Linux.
Also be aware that some GPUs don't handle geometry shaders very well, and that they can be detrimental to performance. You might be better off with indexed triangles or triangle strips in these cases, despite the annoying repetition of indices.


India and Pakistan have agreed to re-start a comprehensive bilateral dialogue, which will culminate in a high-level visit of Indian Prime Minister Modi to Pakistan. While the conflict over Jammu and Kashmir will be addressed, other issues will take priority over the voices and demands of the people.
This report discusses the local dynamics of the Kashmir conflict, and focuses on the youth-led resistance against the Indian state in Kashmir that has emerged since the late 2000s. It narrates the ways in which Kashmiri youth have mobilized outside the realm of formal politics, using new technology and other means to bring awareness to the Kashmir issue. Despite these developments, their political agency remains restricted through increased state repression and surveillance.
After a three-year break, India and Pakistan have agreed to re-start a comprehensive bilateral dialogue, which will culminate in a high-level visit of Indian Prime Minister Modi to Pakistan in September 2016.(1) While the conflict over Jammu and Kashmir will surely be addressed, it appears once more that other issues will take priority over the voices and demands of the people, especially those of the Muslim-majority Kashmir Valley. This priority is misplaced. The dialogue between India and Pakistan must take into account changing realities on the ground within the Kashmir Valley. No progress can be made unless a Kashmir-centric approach is taken into consideration.
For most of the 2000s it appeared that the Kashmiri movement for self-determination had been rendered obsolete, as Indian and international analysts projected a "return to normalcy" and the local populace grew disillusioned with militant groups.(5) However, in 2008 a new wave of largely non-violent protests began to emerge in Kashmir, lead by the generation that grew up during the period of heightened militancy. The triggers for this new wave of protest included the Indian state's attempted land grabs, extrajudicial killings, and the torture and killing of Kashmiri youth.(6) This new generation of youth activists has played a critical role in redefining the Kashmiri movement for self-determination as well as the precarious political and social conditions in which they function.
Kashmiri youth-driven activism and cultural production has crafted a new discourse that—while relying on multiple, concurrent frames of reference and inspiration—is deeply connected to the desire for justice in Kashmir.
One such example is Kashmiri cartoonist Malik Sajad's 2015 autobiographical graphic novel, Munnu: A Boy from Kashmir. Sajad, who started drawing political cartoons for Kashmiri newspapers at a young age, narrates his personal story of growing up in Srinagar's Batmaloo area during a period of heightened militancy and witnessing the harsh repression tactics of the Indian state and its security forces. Sajad deftly brings together the modern graphic art form with traditional Kashmiri embroidery and design, drawing upon contemporary cultural icons as well as Kashmir's rich historical traditions and folklore. Using the language of memoir, human rights, Islamic mysticism, and political critique, Sajad does not pay homage to any particular political party or ideology, but shows the everyday struggles and heartbreaks of life under military occupation.(9) It is both the universality of his themes as well as the specificity of the Kashmir context that draws in the reader. Sajad is one of many Kashmiri youth experimenting with different cultural forms—both online and off—to bring attention to the Kashmir issue.
Since the late 1980s, the pro-freedom leadership, comprised of groups such as the Hurriyat and the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), dominated Kashmiri resistance against the Indian state. Mired in their own political intrigues, infighting, and allegations of corruption, the influence of these groups and their leaders waned in recent years. While supporting these groups' ultimate aims, many in Kashmir have begun to question their modes of resistance, critiquing the overuse of hartaal, or general strike, as well as their inability to do more than "simply keep the struggle alive."(11) Some youth also feel that there is very little space for them to be involved in these parties, unlike the pro-Indian local parties that make space for youth to take on bigger roles.
Kashmiri activist Muzzammil Thakur, who is the president of the Kashmir Institute of International Affairs and runs a number of development projects in the Valley, laments the prevailing predicament of the pro-freedom groups.
Yet, not all agree that this is the primary reason for the pro-freedom groups' waning influence. Wajahat Ahmad, who teaches sociology at OP Jindal University, thinks that most middle class activists are not interested in the harsh reality of membership.
Despite differences of opinion on the efficacy of the pro-freedom parties today, many Kashmiri youth nevertheless acknowledge the important role the parties have played since the 1980s and the difficulties they face due to the limitations placed upon them by the Indian state.
The emerging grassroots, youth-led movement, marked by its lack of leadership or formal organization, has forged new spaces for discussion on Kashmir, outside of the realm of the various political parties. This has led to a broader vision of azadi (the struggle for independence), and fierce debates on the nature of the Kashmir conflict.(14) Kashmiri youth are at the forefront of defining what constitutes azadi, and challenging long-held perspectives on the role of religion, economy, culture, and education. While they connect to feelings of being marginalized as Muslims as a result of the so-called Global War on Terror, these new perspectives do not simply rely on religious identification, but also incorporate critiques of imperialism, religious nationalism, and global capitalism. For example, many youth are critical of Pakistan's role in Kashmir and are beginning to think beyond the ideals constructed by nationalist imaginaries—even those within Kashmir.
In moments of heightened crisis, such as dates of commemoration or after killings of youth activists, the state clamps down on communication networks, sometimes for days or weeks at a time, including social media. As a result, the youth are unable to mobilize and build momentum around particular issues. This illiberal and undemocratic muzzling of expression is meant to curtail dissent.
The increasing suppression and violence of the Indian state, especially since the killings of over 120 young Kashmiris in the summer of 2010, has led to an increase in Kashmiri youth joining militant groups. Unlike their predecessors in the late 1980s and 1990s, many of these youth are highly educated. Burhan Wani, a Kashmiri from Kashmir's Tral region who joined the militancy when he was only fifteen, has inspired this new generation of militants.(26) Police estimate that he has recruited over eighty youth in recent years.(27) Many of these youth joined the militancy after facing harassment at the hands of the security forces or witnessing the death of a family member or friend.
Kashmiri youth are well aware that their struggle for self-determination is of little international concern. With rising authoritarianism and right-wing fervor in India, and continued geopolitical interventions in Pakistan, Kashmir is simply not a policy priority. The perceived intractability of the issue continues, but this might create new opportunities for Kashmiris to take ownership of their cause. Kashmir's initial revolt has come full circle and a new generation is testing new ways of dissent, taking ownership of their narrative, and expanding their solidarity and networks through social media and other mediums. While state surveillance and repression is likely to continue, so is youth resistance.

(2) India and Pakistan went to war over Kashmir immediately after Partition, resulting in Pakistan acquiring nearly one-third of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir, which it calls "Azad Kashmir." This report is restricted to Indian-administered Kashmir.
(11) The pro-freedom leadership usually calls for hartaals after the occurrence of human rights violations by the Indian state. Most businesses, banks, schools, and government offices remain closed and public transportation is limited. Critics of the hartaal as a protest strategy decry that it harms the Kashmiri economy and keeps children from attending school; the leadership maintains that it is the only form of resistance that Kashmiris can use given the state prohibition of protests and larger public gatherings.
(14) Azadi is the Persian word for freedom, and is also used in Kashmiri and Urdu. It represents the demand in Kashmir for self-determination and an end to the Indian military occupation.

If required, add water so that it must have the consistency to pour into the rice. Boil it, remove from fire and add ghee.
Parippu (Toor Dhal) - ½ Kg.
Turmeric Powder - ¼ teaspoon.
Pressure-cook the Dhal & mash. Add the vegetables with green chillies and salt (Make sure you fry the Okra in little oil before adding). Add turmeric powder. When the vegetables are cooked add the tamarind juice. Mix red chilly, fenugreek, coriander and Asafoetedia powder into paste and add to the Dhal. Let it boil till its cooked. Add coriander leaves before seasoning.
Chilly powder - ½ table spoon.
Red Chillies - 1 cut into halves.
Mustard Seed - ¼ teaspoon.
Cook the vegetables with turmeric powder, chilly powder, curry leaves in water. Add salt. Now add the smoothly ground coconut, Jeerakam, green chillies and curry leaves and heat, but do not allow to boil. Turn off the stove let it remain for 5 mins. Add the yogurt and stir well. Then season it. While seasoning add few fenugreek seeds too. (Take caution not to blacken the fenugreek seed).
Grated Coconut - 2 tablespoon.
Yogurt - 2 tea cups.
Mustard Seeds - ¼ teaspoon.
Coconut or any refined oil - ¼ tablespoon.
Red Chillies - 1 cut into pieces.
Cut cucumber or Kumbalanga into (¼ inch wide and ½ inch long) pieces and cook in a covered pan with salt (add little water if needed). Grind smoothly grated coconut and green chillies. Then add mustard seeds and few curry leaves & grind coarsely. Mix with curd and salt and add to cooked vegetables. Add salt to taste and heat in low flame for 2 minutes, but do not boil. Then season and garnish over the curry.
Grated Coconut - ½ coconut.
Coconut or any refined oil - 2 tablespoon.
Black gram (Urud) Dhal - 1 teaspoon.
Season with oil, chilly, mustard, and black gram (Urud) Dhal and curry leaves and add finely cut cabbage and savala. Add salt, cover and cook in low flame. Grind coarsely, coconut, turmeric powder, chilly powder, garlic, Jeerakam and curry leaves and add to the cabbage after it is properly cooked. Cover and cook in low heat till all the water is evaporated.
Frozen Drumstick - ¼ packet.
Jackfruit seeds (optional) - 8 nos.
Cut the vegetables lengthwise (1 inch long and ½ inch wide). Cook with turmeric powder, chilly powder, curry leaves, oil and little water. When cooked add coarsely grated coconut (ground with chillies, Jeerakam and curry leaves), curd and salt. Stir well and boil. When it thickens, add little oil and curry leaves and remove from the stove.
Sweetened Condensed Milk - 1 tin.
Fry vermicelli in 1 tablespoon of ghee for 5 minutes until it turns reddish brown. Add milk and cook. When cooked properly, add sugar and boil in low heat. Keep stirring and add condensed milk and let it boil for few more minutes. Remove from the fire and add powdered cardamom, fried nuts and Kismiss. Stir it well.
Chopped Coconut - 2 table spoons.
Cook the Dhal (Parippu) in enough water and mash it after all the water evaporates. Dissolve jaggery by boiling in a little water and sieve to remove the impurities. Take the cooked Dhal, jaggery and 1 tablespoon of ghee in a shallow vessel and mix well. Boil till it thickens. Meanwhile cook the sago in water until it softens and to the mixture. Take 2 cans of coconut milk and mix with equal amount of water. Pour this diluted coconut milk into the mixture. Boil again for 15 minutes. Lower the fire and add the remaining 2 cans of coconut milk (concentrated). Add cardamom and fried nuts and fried chopped coconuts. Stir well and remove from fire before it begins to bowl.

The proposed project consists of replacing the Delta Mendota Canal Bridge on Nees Avenue, east of Douglas Ave, near City of Firebaugh. The existing functionally obsolete, two-lane bridge would be replaced with a new two-lane bridge that meets current standards. A detour could be constructed on-site, or an on off-site detour could be used to move traffic around the construction project. If an off-site detour is used by way of N. Fairfax Ave, W. Bullard Ave and N. Washoe Ave, the detour route could require an asphalt concrete overlay or asphalt patching with placement of either shoulder backing or a shoulder treatment.


It's no question that smartphones can inadvertently cause conflicts in a relationship. Most people (me) have gotten mad at a text that was sent too late, or contained a dramatic period at the end of what was supposed to be a casual "hey." Some (also me) have even fought over it, only to come to the eventual grim realization that you've spent 45 minutes seriously dissecting the meaning of a lone ":)."
Clearly, the phone itself isn't forcing anyone to scroll through Instagram while they're watching TV with their partner. But it does seem to create unique problems that would not have existed even 15 years ago. And, because most people do use their phones every day, it's easy for these subtle conflicts to slip under the cracks and cause blow up fights over, well, a Facebook like.
Obviously, even if your partner can repeat everything you just said verbatim, the fact that they were scrolling through their Twitter the whole time definitely drains you of feelings of closeness. "Intimacy comes from being able to share authentically with another person," says Dr. Seppälä. "If you are looking at your phone rather than in your partner's eyes, there can be no intimacy." Or, at the very least, it sends the message that you think actively listening to them is as important as checking your notifications. Not great, either way.
Your phone is ALWAYS on your mind, even when you don't want it to be.
On top of this being annoying to your partner who just wanted a morning spoon-fest, it also removes the sense of aloneness when you open up Instagram. According to a study by the University of Chicago, the mere presence of a phone in the room causes a decrease in cognitive capacity and attentional focus, because you subconsciously worry about missed notifications. Which, of course, makes it hard to really be with your S.O.
You can feel genuinely hurt if your partner doesn't text soon enough.
If you're at a job where you can't check your phone, you have an acceptable excuse for not being prompt. But TBH, sometimes you just want to watch Netflix without maintaining an immediate back-and-forth convo with bae. Or honestly, you saw the text and forgot to respond. And vice versa. The immediacy of phones has us all expecting real-time communication, even when it's not possible. Ultimately, this adds a difficult, specific type of stress that literally no generation of humans has ever dealt with.
If you're a strictly-texting couple, you miss out on higher levels of intimacy.
It's easy to feel like you're always talking when you text, but actually calling your partner for a nightly recap and hearing their voice feels way more intimate, especially when you can't be together IRL.
You can have a whole fight over a misinterpreted message.
Who among us hasn't gotten instantly worried at the sight of "..." ending a sentence, or a "can we talk later tonight?" that ended up not being a hint at a breakup but really was just your partner wanting a phone convo?"It makes it easy to misinterpret, when someone says something in a text and you take it a certain way, and if only you have heard their voice, you would know how they meant it," says Dr. Weinschenk.
Your mood around your partner gets worse when you check social media.
And some of that could be because it's all too easy to compare yourself to others on social media. Sometimes, all it takes to ruin date night is seeing that your high school nemesis just got engaged on a gorgeous Italian terrace, while you've been hoping your boyfriend would propose literally anywhere.
It can be a tough cycle to break, and probably requires you forgiving your partner (and yourself!) for occasionally slipping up and checking Snapchat after toggling off your morning alarm. But if your S.O. can't commit to putting their phone away for a two-hour dinner, that tells you everything you need to know about the relationship.

"KDM6B counteracts EZH2-mediated suppression of IGFBP5 to confer resist" by Wenyu Wang, Keng Gat Lim et al.
KDM6B counteracts EZH2-mediated suppression of IGFBP5 to confer resistance to PI3K/AKT inhibitor treatment in breast cancer.
Despite showing promise against PIK3CA-mutant breast cancers in preclinical studies, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway inhibitors demonstrate limited clinical efficacy as monotherapy. Here, we found that histone H3K27me3 demethylase KDM6B-targeted IGFBP5 expression provides a protective mechanism for PI3K/AKT inhibitor-induced apoptosis in breast cancer cells. We found that overexpression of KDM6B and IGFBP5 in luminal breast cancer are positively associated with poorer disease outcomes. Mechanistically, KDM6B promotes IGFBP5 expression by antagonizing EZH2-mediated repression, and pharmacologic inhibition of KDM6B augments apoptotic response to PI3K/AKT inhibitor treatment. Moreover, the IGFBP5 expression is upregulated upon acquired resistance to the PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941, which is associated with an epigenetic switch from H3K27me3 to H3K27Ac at the IGFBP5 gene promoter. Intriguingly, GDC-0941-resistant breast cancer cells remained sensitive to KDM6B or IGFBP5 inhibition, indicating the dependency on KDM6B-IGFBP5 axis to confer the survival advantage in GDC-0941-resistant cells. Our study reveals an epigenetic mechanism associated with resistance to targeted therapy and demonstrates that therapeutic targeting of KDM6B-mediated IGFBP5 expression may provide a useful approach to mitigate both intrinsic and acquired resistance to the PI3K inhibitor in breast cancer.

The county's comprehensive plan and proposed amendments to the local zoning ordinance took center stage at the September 20 meeting of the Rappahannock County Planning Commission.
The planners voted unanimously to ask Zoning Administrator David Dameron and County Attorney Art Goff to create a notice for a public hearing on all the zoning ordinance amendments now pending. The hearing could potentially take place at the Planning Commission's October 18 meeting.
For much of the past year, the planners and the county's Board of Zoning appeals have worked through a multi-page chart of amendments to the zoning ordinance intended to tighten standards for applications for special use or special exception permits for a range of dwelling types. These include efficiency apartments, family apartments, guest houses, B&Bs, tourist homes, and boarding homes.
Many of the proposed changes are in response to the concern among county residents of the growing presence of tourist homes owned by non-residents for investment purposes.
During the September 20 meeting comment period, Jackson district resident Page Glennie urged the planners to respect the interest of residents over nonresidents and include a residency requirement for applicants for tourist homes.
A recent example was the application by Desmond and Heidi Dodd to turn their cabin on Gid Brown Hollow Road into a tourist home. The Dodds currently reside in South Africa on a work assignment, but call Rappahannock their home.
Their application was met with much opposition from neighbors on Gid Brown Hollow Road and adjoining Harris Hollow Road who considered the Dodds nonresidents.
Dameron and Goff presented a resolution September 6 meeting of the Board of Supervisors proposing another set of amendments to the county code. If adopted, these amendments would remove the distinction between special use and special exception permits and change the responsibilities of the BOS and the BZA.
Currently, both types of permits come first before the Planning Commission, which can vote to recommend the applications to either the BOS or the BZA. Supervisors hear special exception permit applications, while the BZA hears those for special use permits.
Under the Dameron-Goff amendments, there would be only one permit type, which would go to the Planning Commission and then to the BOS. The BZA would only hear appeals and applications for zoning variances.
The purpose for the change, as expressed by John Lesinski, the Hampton supervisor who sits on the Planning Commission, would be to simplify the application process and help address confusion in the public over the difference between special exception and special use permits.
Other items were embedded in the Dameron-Goff document. One would change the process for moving permit applications forward. Under the current system, a public hearing is advertised as soon as an application is received.
The proposed change would require advertising a public hearing only after the Planning Commission has reviewed the application to ensure that it was complete.
Many applications in the past year have had to be tabled and hearings postponed because of incomplete information or improper notices to the public.
Another proposed amendment would clarify acreage requirements for B&Bs and tourist homes.
The controversy over the Dodd application also surfaced a question about whether acreage requirements recommended by the Planning Commission in 2010 and adopted by the BOS were valid.
According to an opinion memo issued by Goff in July, the Planning Commission at its June 16, 2010 meeting discussed an amendment to replace existing language in the county code with one requiring a minimum of 10 acres for a tourist home.
However, the BOS made material changes to what had been advertised, and voted to approve substantially smaller acreage requirements. Because the new language had not been properly noticed, Goff found that the amendments were illegal and that the previous ordinance language requiring a minimum of 10 acres for a tourist home stands.
Hampton district planner Al Henry added to the September 20 agenda a discussion of the county's comprehensive plan which has been under review for about three years.
"Certainly, it's been under review since a year before [then-County Administrator] John McCarthy left," said vice chair Gary Light.
State code requires that comprehensive plans be reviewed every five years. It has been more than five years since the Rappahannock plan been updated.

	The Bubble Sort is just one of many methods out there to "sort lists of data".  It is
	certainly NOT the fastest method, but it's pretty simple to implement and if you don't need
	a blazing fast sort routine, it will get the job done.

	The Bubble Sort works like this:

		1)  First you have to have some "list of data" (lets say an array of integers).
		2)  Next you need to decide if you want the data arranged least to greatest (A - Z)
			or greatest to least (Z - A).  Let's suppose we go with "least to greatest".
		3)  Next, you start with the FIRST element and you loop until you get to the
			end of the array.
		4)  Inside of this loop, you have another loop that also starts at the beginning of
			the array.  You check the element from the outer loop against the element in
			the inner loop.  If the inner loop element is GREATER then the outer loop element,
			you swap the two elements (swap the value stored at those specific array indexes).
		4)  Then you keep repeating until done (yes I know very wordy :).

	We're going to go ahead an implement the bubble sort function.
	It will take an array of integers, the count of integers you want to sort (usually
	this would be the whole array) and a flag specifying to sort from "least to greatest" or
	"greatest to least".

	So with that, lets get rolling...
*/

#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>		// Include this so we can use time() to see our number generator
using namespace std;

const int kNum = 10; // The NUMBER of elements in our array

// Here's our function for sorting the array.
// num == the count of elements to sort.
// l2g == a flag stating "how to sort".  If l2g is true, then we sort "least - greatest".
//		  If l2g is false we sort "greatest - least"
void BubbleSort(int*, int num, bool l2g);

int main()
{
	srand((unsigned int)time(NULL)); // First thing we'll do is seed the random number generator

	int i = 0; // Loop variable
	int numArray[kNum] = {0}; // Create our array

	for(; i < kNum; i++)
		numArray[i] = rand()%1000; // Fill it with random numbers

	// Sort the array from least to greatest
	BubbleSort(numArray, kNum, true);

	// Print it out
	for(i = 0; i < kNum; i++)
		cout << numArray[i] << " ";

	cout << endl << endl; // A couple blank lines

	// Sort the array from greatest to least
	BubbleSort(numArray, kNum, false);

	// Print it out
	for(i = 0; i < kNum; i++)
		cout << numArray[i] << " ";

			// one time for EVERY element in the array
			for(int j = 0; j < num; j++)

Surprise find delights Kiwiest Kiwi!
Surprise find delights Kiwiest Kiwi
From the Wanganui Chronicle – 04/01/13
Fragments of eggshell were an ominous sign something was wrong. The fact that each year 95% of kiwi chicks in the wild die, with half the losses attributed to stoats, also supported the assumption that the former inhabitant of this egg had been the victim of predation.
Such was the scene at 2am on December 18 and Daniel McKechnie and his wide Teana tracked kiwis in the Maungataniwha Forest, between the Te Hoe and Waiau rivers in northern Hawkes Bay, while claiming the prize Mr McKechnie won last mo nth for his tattoo, a Kiwiana-themed map of New Zealand. The tattoo, applied to Mr McKechnie's back in early 2012, was the winning entry in Tasti's search for the 'Kiwiest Kiwi'.
The couple arrived from Wanganui had arrived at the Forest Lifeforce Restoration Trust's base two days earlier, after being flown from Wangabnui to Auckland and then Helicoptering to the base. Mr McKechnie, a 26 year old plumber, said the rest of Sunday was spent tracking the tagged kiwis in preparation for the main expedition the following night. The group stayed in what Mr McKechnie described as a shearing shed; basic but more than adequate.
On Monday they explored the native bush along old logging tracks in off-road vehicles, then rested in the afternoon, before heading into the forrest around 9pm. The couple were in a group that visited two nests, which the checked every half hour from 10pm.
The female kiwi usually lays one to two eggs which are incubated by the male. Mr McKechnie said they could only approach the nest while the male kiwi was absent, given the risk of damage to those eggs if the adult kiwi was panicked.
They collected two eggs from the first nest about midnight but the second nest was empty and on closer examination it appeared the egg had already hatched and there were grave concerns for the chick's safety. Kiwi chicks only stay with their fathers at the nest for around 10 days so the chances of finding the chick were slim.
Mr McKechnie said when they returned to check the nest on Tuesday morning, they found the chick alive and well. "It was the highlight" he said. The prize entitled him to name the little kiwi 'Jake' after his son.
The eggs and chick were delivered to Rainbow Springs in Rotorua on the group's return journey. That is where they will be hatched and nurtured until they are moved to a predator-proof sanctuary on the Cape Kidnappers peninsula. When the kiwis are mature enough to fend for themselves in the wild they will return to the Maungataniwha Forest to hopefully breed more kiwi in the future

Newsom's 2021 budget includes billions for…
Newsom's 2021 budget includes billions for California housing, homelessness
Proposal includes another $750 million for Project Homekey
PUBLISHED: January 8, 2021 at 2:05 p.m. | UPDATED: January 10, 2021 at 5:23 a.m.
Gov. Gavin Newsom wants to dedicate billions of the 2021 budget toward addressing the state's housing and homelessness crisis, he said Friday, laying out a proposal that includes funding to expand a successful pandemic housing program, increase living options for seniors and add beds in behavioral health facilities.
The budget proposes $1.75 billion in new investments for homeless housing, including $750 million to continue Project Homekey — the pandemic program that helps cities and counties buy hotels, apartments, dorms and other buildings and turn them into long-term homeless housing. Newsom also asked the legislature for funding to stimulate affordable housing construction and augment the construction workforce.
"In these darkest moments of the COVID-19 pandemic, this budget will help Californians with urgent action to address our immediate challenges and build towards our recovery," Newsom said in a written statement.
Last year, continuing efforts to temporarily get homeless Californians off the street and out of crowded shelters during the pandemic, the governor's office allocated $846 million in federal, state and philanthropic funds toward Project Homekey. Using those funds, cities and counties purchased 94 buildings, creating more than 6,000 units of long-term homeless housing. The purchases were granted exemptions from certain permitting requirements, speeding up the process and allowing the deals to close in a matter of months instead of years.
"Because it worked, we might as well double-down on it," Newsom said Friday. "And that's what we're proposing to do."
Of the $750 million Newsom requested to continue the program this year, he asked the legislature to make $250 million available immediately. And under his proposal, all future Homekey acquisitions would be streamlined as past acquisitions have been.
Newsom also wants to make $750 million available for cities and counties to spend on expanding their behavioral health treatment centers. That money would be a one-time grant spent over three years. Another $250 million would go toward buying or rehabilitating long-term care facilities and housing for low-income seniors.
"In this pandemic year with federal aid to local governments being way below what it should be, I think what we're seeing from the governor's budget proposal is very positive — major new investments both to combat homelessness and to create more permanent supportive housing in partnership with local governments," said Matt Schwartz, president and CEO of the California Housing Partnership.
But Schwartz and other activists are disappointed this year's budget proposal doesn't include a long-term plan or permanent funding streams to address the housing and homelessness crisis. The state needs to create 1.2 million more homes over the next 10 years, Schwartz said — an effort he estimates will require $10 billion a year.
"What's still needed is a bigger-picture plan," he said. Schwartz hopes the governor will address that during his upcoming State of the State speech.
To ramp up housing production throughout the state, Newsom, as he did in 2019 and 2020, proposed an additional $500 million in low-income housing tax credits — a major source of funding developers rely on to build affordable housing. And the governor has asked for $8.5 million to expand a construction apprenticeship program with the goal of bringing more workers into the construction trades.
To make sure California cities comply with requirements to build enough housing for their populations, Newsom wants to use $4.3 million to create a Housing Accountability Unit that will work with local governments.
"Let me just make this clear to all my friends," Newsom said. "This is to monitor city council meetings. This is to monitor board of supervisors meetings, planning commission meetings. We're not going to wait for an article to be written to be proactive in terms of holding local government accountable to increasing housing production."
Assemblyman David Chiu, D-San Francisco, praised the proposed accountability unit Friday, as well as what he called the governor's "continuing commitment to addressing our housing crisis."
"While no budget is perfect, this proposal is good news for California," Chiu wrote in an emailed statement. "I look forward to working with colleagues to get emergency support out the door immediately and pass a final budget in June."
The $227 billion budget includes a $15 billion surplus and $22 billion in reserves, which have allowed Newsom to bring back some proposals shelved last year as COVID plunged the state into an economic meltdown. That includes CalAIM — Newsom's plan to reform Medi-Cal so it better serves the state's most vulnerable residents, including unhoused patients, foster children and people struggling with mental health and substance abuse. The proposal would cost $1.1 billion in the 2021-2022 fiscal year, which would grow to $1.5 billion in the 2023-2024 fiscal year.
Newsom on Friday also emphasized the need for the legislature to expand the state's pandemic eviction moratorium, currently set to expire Jan. 31.
"We have to get that done," he said.

Gemma Arterton & Saoirse Ronan Get Bloody in UK 'Byzantium' Trailer
Source: Yahoo UK
Just a couple months ago, we got our first glimpse at Neil Jordan's dark vampire drama Byzantium starring Gemma Arterton (Clash of the Titans) and Saoirse Ronan (Hanna). With a story that spans centuries, these two young vampires get into trouble in present day when Clara's (Arterton) brothel business and Eleanor's (Ronan) relationship with a sick young boy (Caleb Landry Jones) threaten to expose their immortal secret and put their lives in jeopardy. This looks like the kind of vampire story that isn't just capitalizing on the vampire craze started by Twilight, and just might be a breath of fresh air this summer.
Here's the new UK trailer for Neil Jordan's Byzantium, originally from Yahoo UK:
Byzantium is directed by Irish filmmaker Neil Jordan, of the films Mona Lisa, The Crying Game, The End of the Affair, The Good Thief, Breakfast on Pluto, The Brave One and Ondine previously, as well as work on "The Borgias". The screenplay was written by Moira Buffini, based on her own play. This was shot mostly in Ireland as A Vampire Story, and stars Jonny Lee Miller, Caleb Landry Jones, Sam Riley and Tom Hollander. WestEnd Films produced the film which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, and StudioCanal is distributing in the UK while IFC Films releases the film this summer June 28th in the US.

Nick Flynn: Writers on Writing
"When I'm on a project, it's good to be immersed in it, to return to it, daily."
Nick Flynn is a memoirist, poet, essayist and playwright. His first memoir, Another Bullshit Night in Suck City – which won the PEN/Martha Albrand Award – meditates on his relationship with his mother and with his father, from whom Flynn was estranged until they reunited by chance when his father checked into a Boston homeless shelter where Flynn happened to be working. Suck City was adapted into a movie starring Robert DeNiro and Julianne Moore, with Flynn as executive producer – an experience he describes in his third and most recent memoir The Reenactments. In addition to three memoirs and essays in publications including The New Yorker, Flynn is also the author of several volumes of poetry, which, like his memoirs, are deeply personal and which have garnered awards including the Discovery/The Nation Award and the PEN/Joyce Osterweil Award.
WHAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU'VE LEARNED ABOUT WRITING?
One thing? I'd say that writing, for me, works best as a daily practice, at least when I'm on a project. When I'm on a project, it's good to be immersed in it, to return to it, daily.
HOW HAS THIS HELPED YOU AS A WRITER?
The idea of a daily practice helps not just the writing but maybe everything; it keeps expanding, as an idea. I have trouble now thinking of anything that isn't improved by making it a daily practice. That said, I also like to walk away from writing from time to time, to make not-writing a daily practice. I end up writing in the middle of my not-writing periods, which feels subversive.
—Gabriel Packard is the associate director of the creative writing MFA program at Hunter College in New York City.

Q: Sum of unbalanced Dyck words I know that Dyck words are related to Catalan numbers, they actually count the Dyck words with equal number of X's and Y's.
I need to compute the cardinality of the set of strings of length k of X's and Y's such that no initial substring contains more Y's than X's. Ie. Like Dyck words but without specifying the total number of X's and Y's, but instead requiring that the sum of X's and Y's equals an integer k.
Any clever idea?

A: (I am assuming xxyyy, xyxyy, xyyxx etc. are invalid and xyxyx, xxxyy, xxyyx etc. are valid)
We may define a recurrence relation
\begin{align*}
f(m,n)=\begin{cases}
 & 1 &\text{ if } m>=0, n=0 \\
 & 0 &\text{ if } m=0, n>0 \lor m<n\\
 & f(m-1,n)+f(m,n-1)&\text{ if } m>=n, m>0, n>0
\end{cases}
\end{align*}
Then evaluate
\begin{align*}
  S(k) &= \sum_{i=0}^k f(k-i,i)
\end{align*}
From OEIS, we find that the sequence is A001405
Thus
\begin{align*}
   S(k) &=  \binom{k}{\lfloor k/2 \rfloor}
\end{align*}
Update
We can get the enumeration using Chomsky-Schützenberger theorem, refer Gruber, Lee & Shallit
To summarize,
the grammar that generates the words is
\begin{align*}
  S &\to B \;|\; U \\
  B &\to x\, B\, y\, B\; |\; \epsilon \\
  U &\to x\,  S \;| \;x\, B\, y\, U \\
\end{align*}
and we form the following formal power series
\begin{align*}
  S(z) &= B(z) + U(z)\\
  B(z) &= B(z)^2 z^2  + 1\\
  U(z) &= S(z) z + B(z) U(z) z^2\\
  \implies S(z) &= \frac{-1+2\,z+\sqrt{1-4\,z^2}}{2\,z-4\,z^2}
\end{align*}
and to answer the question, we need to find $[z^k]S(z)$, which is $\dbinom{k}{\lfloor k/2\rfloor}$


Notepads are other types of marketing tools that the companies use to promote their products and services. They generally come in 25, 50, or 100 sheets stack. They are generally backed by a clipboard and are glued at the top. The color notepads are generally available in Pantone Colors. There can be printings or hallmarks on the page. However, generally that is kept minimum. The covers of the notepad contain images and prints. There are varied sizes of notepads and the type that is printed depends on the company policy. Generally, chip boards are being used for providing a firm backing to the notepads.
