Cats that go out to dance at night. I know I’ve seen this trope done before, but it’s hard to remember where. I suppose The Alley Cat’s Meow by Kathi Appelt is the best example. Still, considering how graceful and lithe cats tend to be, you’d think it would be a more common occurrence in your average picture book fare. As it stands I think that Cats’ Night Out by Caroline Stutson is a rare and wonderful little book, and not just because it involves fancy dance felines. This book has moves. It pops and snaps and works in not just a couple of kitties tripping the light fantastic but also a storyline that counts by twos. Add in an illustrator that, hands down, has created my favorite cat-related images of 2010, and you’ve got yourself one of heckuva fancy feast.
I know that if you’re a children’s librarian like myself then your children’s room has counting books galore. Oh, the counting books! Can’t take a sharp stick and hit a shelf without stabbing a counting book in the process (which I don’t recommend). Now how about picture books that count by twos? Not exactly common, wouldn’t you agree? Maybe it’s a stretch to say that this book could teach kids their multiplication tables, but at the very least it fills a gap in our collections.
… enter Jon Klassen. Sporting clientele as varied as the Coraline movie to U2 to the 2010 Winter Olympics, Klassen’s an animator by trade. A lot of animators try to cross over into picture books, with varied results. If I’m gonna be frank with you, not many of them fully commit to it. They figure a picture book can’t be that different from a storyboard whipped off for an animated sequence, so they’ll do the minimum amount of work and leave it at that. I don’t get that feeling from Klassen here. First off, the man draws a mean cat. Not “mean” as in “nasty” but “mean” as in “slick”. These little digitless guys are all rounded limbs and triangular ears and mouths. Only once in this book are they ever seen walking on all fours. For the most part they’re sashaying to the beat of their own particular drums. These cats are totally in the zone. Their eyes only open when the sleep-deprived humans give them how to and what for. The artistic style is evocative as well. These cats dance in a kind of city of the past. All clothes lines strung between apartments and sky-high diner signs. Klassen even works in little hidden number in each dance spread. Kids will then have a chance to try and spot the numbers that lurks over, under, and near the capering cats. I found eighteen to be particularly difficult.
Klassen renders this book digitally, giving the city a gritty feel that I haven’t really noticed in a picture book to this extent since the days of Ezra Jack Keats. Keats wasn’t afraid to really glorify a city’s graffiti and rust. There is no graffiti in this mod little number, but there is a kind of layer of sweet city smog that covers everything. Buildings get lost in a haze of a dying day. Klassen’s use of light is also particularly nice. I love the way the sky moves from lighter to darker shades of gray as the night progresses. I adore that shock of greenish light that comes from fox-trotting beneath a plethora of electric bulbs. And then there are the cats themselves. They’ve such energy and personality for critters so small and simple. I love how one will thrust out its hips while dancing the twist while another might wear kitty-sized lederhosen. And cats doing the Elvis guitar strum arm move? Nothing but awwww.
I suppose that you could probably raise some concerns about the depiction of the individual dances. Can you really dance a polka holding hands in a line? Do tangos actually include some of the moves we’re seeing here? Sometimes you find yourself wishing the cats weren’t so rigidly tied to the shape of their little bodies, but I don’t think anyone can argue that any dance is actually all that wrong. Cats will be cats, after all.
So let’s count `em down here. You’ve got yourself a book that has an artistry to it, both in terms of the wordplay and the pictures themselves. The book has hidden elements that will keep a lot of kids engaged. It rhymes beautifully, it scans like a dream, and it counts by twos, which is rare. All in all, I think you’ve got yourself a pretty good book. Hand it on over to fans of dance, fans of cats, fans of dancing cats, and fans of cattish dancing. Nobody puts these kitties in a corner.
Browse inside the book here, if you like.
And you can visit Mr. Klassen at his website here. It appears that he has been signed by Candlewick Press for a picture book called The House Held Up By Trees to be published in Feb 2012. Well played, Jon.
Ahh…fan of cattish dancing here. Thanks for sharing this book. As far as alley cats that have danced under the moon in the past, don’t forget Mehitabel from “Archy and Mehitabel” by Don Marquis. I grew up listening to Carol Channing sing the lines of this spirited feline.
Love your blog, Betsy Bird!
among modern cat dancers, we have They Might Be Giants’s “Happy Doesn’t Have to Have an Ending,” narrated by a kitty who wants to jump around and dance all night.
Thanks for the heads-up on this book — the art looks ravishing. I have a little water-tower fetish (don’t tell) so I’m definitely in.
Esther Averill’s Jenny Linsky and the Cat Club, dancing the Sailor’s Hornpipe in the alleys.
And then there’s T.S. Eliot’s “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats”. I suppose that might mark the birth of the cat dancers. Certainly on Broadway, ho ho.
I just realized that I could have used the line “I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats” in this review. Dang! A lost opportunity.
I’m a fan of Mr. Klassen and I know for a fact that he has gone so far as to leave his job at Dreamworks just to pursue a full time career in picture book making. He’s one animator that I’m sure will continue to make beautiful work.
Speaking of cats going dancing at night (and feasting and swapping gifts, too) have you seen John Burningham’s “It’s a Secret”? There’s nothing overtly showy about it, but as you’re reading it you begin to realize that there’s not a word or a picture out of place. It’s amazing.
Well that’s just Burningham all over. The man’s got amazing skills. I actually had a dad in my library yesterday asking about “It’s a Secret”. We debated what the secret actually was.
On the subject of Burningham, have you ever reviewed Avocado Baby? Talk about amazing!
I’ve never reviewed Burningham, period! A gap in my reviewing, to be sure. Maybe next book.

There are University requirements and program-specific requirements for each TLEL program. Those requirements can be found on the program admissions page and the Graduate School admissions page.
All applicants for admission to master's degree programs must have a bachelor's degree or the equivalent from a college or university of recognized standing. Undergraduates entering their final semester, and undergraduates preparing for an accelerated degree program, may also apply.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: New York Education Law now permits teachers to qualify for Permanent or Professional NYS Teaching Certificates when they have verified USCIS Permanent Resident status. Students who do not seek certification to teach in New York state may apply to the MA TESOL or Educational Studies program.
Applications for admission to the Education Minor are due during the first six weeks of each semester. This is a hard deadline and very few, if any, exceptions will be given. For more information, visit the Minor admissions page. Questions can be directed to the application committee at edminapp@binghamton.edu.
For all graduate programs, there is a rolling admissions policy and we continue to accept applications after the priority deadlines.
Initial preparation programs and the EdD in Educational Theory and Practice program accept applications for fall admission only.
Advanced preparation programs, MA TESOL, Educational Studies and Educational Leadership programs accept applications for fall and spring admission.
Applications submitted before the priority deadline receive first consideration. Graduate assistantships, fellowships and scholarships usually are awarded for fall, so application materials should be submitted by Feb. 1 to be considered.
However, the Department of Teaching, Learning and Educational Leadership accepts/considers applications received after priority dates on a space-available basis. Contact Tami Mann, director of recruitment, admissions and certification, at tmann@binghamton.edu or 607-777-5322, to inquire about availability in your program of interest.
In accord with the New York State Education Transformation Act of 2015, applicants to graduate-level teacher preparation programs must meet rigorous admission selection criteria. In addition, the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) requires educator preparation programs to set high academic standards for candidates. To meet these standards, all applicants to any graduate program leading to New York state certification in classroom teaching must submit their Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores with their application materials. This includes all Teacher Education (Master of Art in Teaching and Master of Science in Education) programs.
Note that the GRE is not required for the CAS in Educational Leadership program.
Review the GRE website for information about taking the GRE and/or retrieving scores. Use the institutional code 2535 when registering for the GRE, as this allows scores to be sent directly to Binghamton University.
The faculty members in the Department of Teaching, Learning and Educational Leadership review each applicant's materials individually. All materials submitted with the application, including test scores, transcripts and letters of recommendation, are interpreted as a piece of a more dynamic, intricate whole and individual items will not outweigh other indicators of a student's potential success as a teacher or school leader.
Candidates should be aware that some states, including New York, may restrict or deny professional licensure for people with felony convictions, misdemeanor convictions or actions taken against them by a professional organization. Binghamton University's Department of Teaching, Learning and Educational Leadership cannot guarantee licensure upon completion of the program.
In addition, candidates in teacher and educational leader preparation programs must complete field experiences, including practicum and internships, in schools or other educational settings. For placement into field experiences, candidates are required to provide personal information, fingerprints and may be subjected to a criminal background check. Candidates admitted into the program are not guaranteed a field placement, practicum or internship placement as schools, districts and other educational settings have the right to refuse placement based on information collected during any background check results or the candidate's own disclosure.
Candidates with such situation(s) should consult the state's certification board and the program coordinator before submitting an application for admission.

Some of you have lost a dear loved one, are grieving a broken marriage, have a wayward family member, are alone and lonely, have moved, or are living with a diagnosis or facing surgery. Some of you are on hold or have watched a dream die or let go of a job. The list goes on and on. Struggles and heartaches comes in all shapes and sizes and no one is immune. Sometimes life snowballs and you have more on your plate than a simple Thanksgiving feast.
I think about you and what’s happening for you beyond your reading my books. Each of you have full lives with many facets, books being just a tiny part of that. Some of you have prayed for me and my family when we most needed it. I’m very thankful! I pray for you, too. Prayer does more than we ever realize and goes far beyond the limits of our imaginations.
Whatever our current struggles, they’re not eternal. Temporal but not eternal. Maybe that is the heartbeat of this verse, Rejoice always and delight in your faith; be unceasing and persistent in prayer; in every situation [no matter what the circumstances] be thankful and continually give thanks to God; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Amplified version.
Those two words say so much, Cindy. In fact, you came to mind as I was writing this. And I’m always amazed that you are right here with me when I post here. Thank you, thank you! Praying you and your loved ones have the most peaceful Thanksgiving ever.
Love this, Laura. And so, so true! You and your family are in my prayers. Wishing you all a Blessed Thanksgiving! Love you, dear friend.
So need those prayers, Georgianne, as we move my mom and stepdad over the holidays and deal with another heartbreaking situation close at hand. You are one of my biggest blessings. I aspire to be like you! Praying your week is full of joy and celebration! Love you, dear Georgianne.
Knowing some of your history and testimony, Nicole, I’m doubly thankful it’s been a beautiful year for you and your family. So appreciate your gracious presence here. Praying this is your best Thanksgiving yet!
Thank you, Laura for your kindness and thoughtfulness. It’s so easy to forget (when we are personally in a good place) that many are going through tough times. And holidays can make those hard times even harder. I went back to delete my Pollyanna-like comment the other day from your FB post about what we were most thankful for this Thanksgiving and it seems you had taken it down (which made me feel even more embarrassed). You are always, always, always so gracious and caring in your responses. Thank you for being sensitive to the various troubles our friends and loved ones are going through. Names and faces instantly came to mind.
Dear Susan, So happy you’re here! You never misstep with any comment you make! And I notice you do like I do – edit or delete things you wrote when in hindsight you feel it might not be taken the right way. I do that often. In fact, Facebook sent that particular post out to so few people that I realized many are struggling and probably didn’t feel like commenting so I had a change of heart and wrote this blog post instead. You say that so well about ‘names and faces instantly came to mind.’ That’s exactly why I changed over. THANK YOU for your support and insights and all you say and do. Those few that gather here and leave comments are the very foundation of why I write!
I think contentment is the hardest lesson to learn as a believer in Christ. Everyone struggles with it, single, engaged, married, divorced, widowed. So I’m determined to get it right, and keep asking God for a heart of gratitude.
Amazingly succinct and wise and true! Reminds me of the Scripture, “But Godliness with contentment is great gain.” I know these verses by heart but need to learn to live them. You are on that path as a young woman and I wish I’d had your depth and insight, Julie!
I appreciate this post so much and have been so blessed by you! You truly care for others in many ways…through your writing, social media posts, prayers, cards, and more. I know these are ways you have ministered to me during difficult circumstances. I am challenged to care for others more as so many have cared for me. I’ll be praying for you and please let me know how I can minister to you if you’re able. Love and blessings to you sister-friend 💛.
You top my most thankful list, Stacey, with your ongoing graciousness and selflessness toward others in the very midst of your own huge loss! Everything you say here can be said of you. Thank you, thank you for being a bright light in an often dark world. Thankfully, we are winning! Love you, kindred spirit!
Thank you, Laura for sharing your heart!
Life in light of God’s sovereignty–love this post! Praying for you and yours.
Dear Kailee, That’s so poetic! Thank you. So need your prayers. You have mine, too. An overflowing Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!
Thank you so much for this, Laura. Lately I have found myself ashamed for what I’ve viewed as a lack of contentment and a desire for this chapter of my life to close. I’ve been reminded through your post and other things I’ve just stumbled upon this week that God’s timing is perfect. I’m comforted to know that I can rest easy, knowing He is big enough to handle all of my feelings, even the ones I’d rather not have. I can acknowledge my desire for change, and give the feelings to Him, and STILL be thankful and content.
Dear Beth, Likewise, your words minister to me! I so understand everything you’ve just expressed – and expressed so well, too. No doubt you’ll come to the Thanksgiving table with a renewed perspective this week in light of what you’ve said here. I pray that for me, too. Like you, I’m at an in-between chapter of life when I’d rather fast-forward. But you’re so right – thankfulness and contentment are right where we are. More internal than external. Thanks for being transparent and blessing me so much. Thinking of you and praying for you as we celebrate this rich holiday.
Three years ago, my family and I spent Thanksgiving in the hospital after my dad fell and broke his hip. It gave me a whole new perspective of what to be thankful for even during that difficult time. I’m grateful for Christian authors like yourself, who weave God’s love in all of your stories, so that even amongst struggles we know we can cling to the One that is our Hope.
Your perfectly worded post is a wonderful start to this holiday. Wishing you and your family a fantastically ‘full’ Thanksgiving.
Amy, You remind me of something I just became aware of recently – that while most of us are celebrating and enjoying the holiday at home, thousands are confined to hospitals and nursing homes and in the ERs. Truly a wake-up call now that I have a first responder son who transports people night and day for medical tx. I hope your dad is fully healed and in fighting form :). That would be an eye-opener. Clinging to the One that is our Hope is sometimes all we have. Beautiful. A bountiful Thanksgiving to you and yours, too. Such a joy to know you!
Laura, your heart is so beautiful. I know that is why your writing is just as beautiful … words flow from a beautiful heart. I can’t wait to read your new work. When I want my writing to be beautiful, I simply need to read a page from you and I remember where I want to be and how and what I want to come from my heart. I hope you have a beautiful Thanksgiving.
Oh Shelli! Thank you so much! I am so far from where I want to be so hearing you say this is truly humbling. In fact, I often think the same of you as you are loveliness personified! And that even flows out of your photographs! I hope this week is peaceful and full of joys large and small for you and your loved ones. Bless you so much!
Thank you for this Laura. This…”Whatever our current struggles, they’re not eternal. Temporal but not eternal.”…. this is what i needed to be reminded of today. Thank you so much. As always, you are a blessing. Thankful for you!!! Happy Thanksgiving!
Dear Robin, So glad you’re here! I am reminding myself of the temporal, too, today. God bless you, dear friend – your gracious spirit and presence are yet another reason I’m thankful on this special holiday!
Thank you Laura I needed this reminder, especially facing the second Thanksgiving without my mom as it falls on her birthday this year. She always loved Thanksgiving.
Carissa, What a heartfelt holiday in so many ways for you. I think of your mom & you & all the changes you’ve gone through as a family. Thank you for taking time here. Praying for you & your loved ones, always.

At approximately 3:30 PM Tuesday, August 7, units were summoned to a residential structure fire in the 3600 block of Richmond Street. The first arriving crews reported that smoke and fire could be seen along the outside of the two story home, specifically in direct proximity to the chimney. The four children and their parents were already outside and explaining to the firefighters that an earlier thunderstorm had delivered a "huge burst of lightning" that shook the house. The fire itself inside the home was being fed by a severed gas line running the length of the fireplace/chimney, with flames threatening to spread throughout the attic space. With the valve safely secured, the fire and corresponding hot spots were promptly and successfully dealt with. Upon further examination it appeared as if the lightning strike hit a nearby tree and jumped from there to the house, subsequently cutting the gas line. The over 2,700 square foot home sustained approximately $25,000 in damages, with no injuries reported from the scene.
Tragedy struck Jacksonville on Tuesday, 14 August, as units responded to the report of a structure fire around 5:30 PM in the 2100 block of West 17th Street. Upon arrival, Engine and HAZMAT 7 could see heavy smoke and flames surrounding the front area of a single story, single family brick/concrete block residential dwelling. Adding to the urgency were remarks made by an adult male indicating that people 'were trapped inside.' Fighting through the deadly conditions, the firefighters soon discovered an elderly black female in a back bedroom and quickly brought her outside to the attending paramedics. She was transported to Shands in critical condition. While these activities were in progress, firefighters also made the grisly discovery of a deceased elderly black female, trapped in a room near the carport area. Another family member, an adult black female who lived nearby and rushed to the scene to provide assistance before the firefighters had even arrived, sustained critical injuries during her actions and was also transported to Shands. The fire itself was extinguished in about 15 minutes, with the on scene crews successfully arresting extensions to an exposure a mere 5 feet away from the blaze. No word was immediately available concerning cause or point of origin, with the State Fire Marshal's Office investigating the deadly blaze.

Asphalt roof shingles are the most popular and inexpensive sort of residential roofing material. They come in many different colours and styles. They are also fairly durable; lots of asphalt roof shingles currently take a 130 mph wind rating and come with guarantees of up to 50 decades.
Asphalt roof shingles are made from ceramic infused with asphalt. The granules provide shade, UV protection, and algae immunity. They come in many diverse styles, the two most common of them being three-tab and architectural roof shingles.
They typically take a 60 mph wind rating and as much as a 25 year warranty. As a result of horizontal shape of a 3 tab roof shingle as well as its ability to shed water quickly, 3-tabs are often the most suitable for lower pitched roofs in Florida. Architectural roofing shingles also called dimensional, laminated or composite shingles, have a milder base mat with many layers of added material. Architectural shingles continue to a 130 mph wind rating as well as 50 year guarantees. The two kinds are distinct aesthetically and a lot of men and women favor the tiles, which also weigh about 50 percent more than the three tab shingles. This makes them survive more than the three tab type of shingle.
New Berlin Roof Repair is a licensed licensed roof shingle applicator to all substantial shingle manufacturers.
The most notable quality of clay and concrete roof tiles is that they endure a few of nature’s hardest weather, such as wind, rain, hail, earthquakes in addition to flame. On most programs, New Berlin Roof Repair used Polyfoam Adhesive to adhere tile into roof decks. Polyfoam provides the ideal functionality in hurricanes and adds a degree of insulation for energy efficiency.
Since tiles are installed separately, the airspace around them creates natural ventilation that offers a thermal barrier out of heat transfer to the roof deck. This gives energy savings by reducing the peak load requirement by different hours, which directly affects structures in both hot and cold climates.
Concrete and clay roof tiles can be found within an amazingly huge array of finishes and colors, which vary from one color to a matrix of up to five colors. Which vary from flat to barrel-shaped, and offering dramatic differences in layout, concrete tiles can simulate traditional clay tiles, wood shake, slate and stone. A great deal of men and women prefer tile due to its unmatched beauty, versatility and safety. Additionally it’s extremely economical due to its lifespan of 50 — 100 decades or more.
Tile roofs are also simple to fix and require limited maintenance, and it is more typically restricted to the roof gutters, flashings and venting in relation to the tile itself. Furthermore, because clay and concrete tile don’t deplete natural resources since they’re made from naturally occurring substances, they are prized as green, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Request New Berlin Roofing about tile roof for your next roofing project.
Among the fastest growing sections of the roofing industry, metal roofing is growing in popularity everywhere due to its many favorable qualities — it is long lasting, energy efficient, and safer than other kinds of roofs. This also indicates that in some regions, metal roofing can lessen the homeowner’s insurance premiums significantly.
Elegance and beauty are not qualities which individuals are accustomed to attributing to metal roofs, but through time, technology has united what has been exceptional durability with contemporary elegance and beauty as a result of awesome capability to replicate such roof styles as Spanish tile, wood shake and slate. Architectural designs have standing seam and stone coated metal roofs.
Even though the initial investment is greater, metal roofing saves money in the long run. What is more, metal could be made to look like almost any roof stuff. Unlike other kinds of roof materials, like aluminum, asphalt roofing doesn’t absorb heat; it reflects warmth, making it extremely energy efficient. In addition, metal roofing is very wind resistant, does not crack, peal, rust or break. Metal roof is amazingly lightweight, and does not stain or leak.
There are lots of myths about metal roofing that will need to be dispelled. By way of instance, metal roofing doesn’t increase the probability of light striking your own residence. It truly disperses the energy during the building. It is not noisy as it is installed with solid sheathing, which silences rain, hail and other bad weather. The coatings in metal roof prevent rusting and take long-term paint colors. Supplying a 150 mph wind rating, it will not dent.
Your workplace is your lifeblood of your business. Occasionally it can be easy to forget about the condition of your company’s roof. Over the course of time, your roofing takes a beating from New Berlin’s harsh, hot climate, torrential rain and wind. But whenever your office building’s roof is leaking, it can make life miserable for everyone. Employee ethical goes down and so does creation, which impacts your bottom line. New Berlin Roof Repair can provide commercial roof repair in New Berlin no matter how big or small the job.
Why should your company select New Berlin Roofing? Unfortunately, roofs do not select a day or period when to start leaking. We supply 24-hour emergency service in addition to roofing maintenance contracts. The sooner your roof gets repaired, the better your chances of minimizing any additional damage.
Determination of where the leakage is occurring isn’t always a direct correlation regarding in which the roof system is leaking. Locating the origin needs a roof expert.
New Berlin Roof Repair Company’s inspectors aren’t sales staff. They’re capable to become licensed Roofing Contractors or are actually licensed Roofing Contractors because they have passed the State of Florida testing requirements.
Our inspectors will correct the principal reason behind the roof leakage. This often necessitates an investigation of this crawl area, inside ceilings, and the roofing. Such testimonials will notify us concerning if repairs and/or upkeep will solve your own problems.

Will Bar Louie serve as the new Midtown's magnet?
With concerns about a downtown alley resolved, the Ann Arbor City Council cleared the way Monday for McKinley to continue its revitalization of the Liberty and Division streets corridor in the city's midtown area.
The council unanimously voted to approve a rezoning of a 1.15-acre site at 515 E. Liberty St. where McKinley wants to tear down a vacant one-story building that used to hold National City Bank and replace it with a two-story building. The council also approved the site plan and development agreement.
McKinley proposes to put retail all along Liberty Street from its McKinley Towne Centre eastward to the Michigan Theater. Some business owners on Monday said that was key to attracting customers to an area that has historically been a dead zone between the more popular State and Main streets.
The one holdup was the alley that goes from Washington Street to Liberty Street and runs along the west side of the Liberty Square. McKinley CEO Albert Berriz said it was co-owned by the city and McKinley. When the Planning Commission approved the project, McKinley had narrowed that alley way to 10-feet.
But Berriz told the council when he heard there was some community objection to it, he changed it back to its original 26 feet "in one minute."
"We are going to make a huge investment on this block," Berriz said. "We have been thoughtful. We have been very responsive."
Berriz said that he envisions having tables out there and people eating along the alley and the plan is to "make that space quiet usable."
Some residents spoke during the meeting of creating an alley like the Nickels Arcade, the popular glass-topped, atrium walkway between Maynard and State streets that is lined with businesses.
Council Member Chris Easthope, D-5th Ward, said that isn't in the plans for now, but the project was important.
"It is another huge step in revitalizing that area," said Easthope.
Mayor John Hieftje said he wanted that alley kept open.
"I think it (project) will be a very fine addition to our downtown," Hieftje said.
McKinley has aspirations to create a vital, thriving environment along Liberty Street, similar to Main Street. It bought the former TCF Bank building and transformed it into the McKinley Towne Centre, bringing in Google AdWords, the Bar Louie restaurant and other businesses.
Also in the vicinity of the Towne Centre is the planned Ann Arbor Hotel and 4 Eleven Lofts.

McKinley is pleased to announce the appointment of Greg Signer, CPM as Senior Vice President, Operations, Residential Real Estate. Mr. Signer joins McKinley following more than fifteen years of experience in residential real estate most recently, as Vice President with The Morgan Group.
We are very excited about the addition of Greg to the McKinley team, states Kenneth P. Polsinelli, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Residential Real Estate. In addition to his years of experience in the industry, Gregs strengths include a passion for quality operations and a focus on developing people. With our continued growth and expansion across our 10 state platform, Greg will provide the expertise and leverage needed to maintain our excellent performance.
During his career, Greg has been focused on training and development of his team as well as standardizing operations, implementing significant cost saving measures and improving quality throughout the organization. He has held numerous positions in regional property management and operations with several major residential real estate organizations including Archstone-Smith and Trammell Crow/Gables. He has a consistent track record of success at every assignment throughout his career.
Greg is a graduate of Florida State University in Tallahassee. He holds a Certified Property Manager designation and serves on the Board of the Florida State University Housing Program. He is also an active member with the Apartment Association of Greater Orlando. In his new role with McKinley, Mr. Signer will have oversight and responsibility for operations in the residential real estate portfolio with operations in 10 states.
McKinley, founded in 1968, is a well respected national real estate investment firm that owns and operates $1.8 billion in assets in 103 properties for its own account and for select clientele. This includes 17,248 apartments and more than 5 million square feet of commercial space located in 10 states. Headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Albert M. Berriz serves as Chief Executive Officer with 717 full-time employees nationwide.
Dense. Vibrant. Prosperous. Those are three words commonly used describing downtown Ann Arbor. They also play key parts in the latest proposal to expand the McKinley Towne Centre to include a high-rise hotel.
The city is reviewing developer McKinley Inc's plans to build a nine-story, 120 room hotel on the southwest corner of Washington and Division streets. The project is expected to create 20 to 40 jobs while it's estimated patrons of the hotel will spend about $3 million a year in downtown. The idea is making the city's downtown core more dense will make it more vibrant and prosperous by letting those three factors, and others, play off each other.
"That type of critical mass is critical," says Albert M Berriz, CEO of McKinley Inc. "The convergence of those businesses there is critical. This is the only place in downtown where these things are coming together."
The building will replace a surface parking across the street from the Ann Arbor News building. The hotel's design will compliment the surrounding architecture. Parking for the project will be handed by the Liberty Square parking garage behind the Michigan Theater.
First Hospitality Group will develop and the run the yet-to-be-determined brand of hotel. First Hospitality operates about 40 similar hotels across the Midwest, such as the Hampton Inn on Plymouth Road.
The proposed hotel is the latest expansion for the McKinley Towne Centre complex, one of the most impressive urban redevelopment projects in Metro Detroit. The complex, centered on the intersection of Liberty and Thompson streets, has experienced a rebirth thanks to McKinley's efforts to turn the drab, concrete-themed, fortress-like block into a colorful, vibrant area that is full of businesses and open and inviting to pedestrians.
Among the other expansions underway for the complex are the redevelopment of storefronts along Liberty between Thompson and the Michigan Theater and the construction of the 4 Eleven Lofts building. This is on top of McKinley's initial step of the development, transforming the formerly profoundly ugly TCF Bank regional headquarters into the new headquarters to Google's Adwords division.
The Ann Arbor City Council is currently reviewing the plans for the hotel, the second hotel planned for downtown. McKinley hopes to wrap up project approval by the end of January and start construction shortly thereafter. Work is expected to wrap up 13 months after ground is broken.

David Canter is the Ann Arbor region's Executive of the Year, accepting the honor at the "2007 Deals of the Year" awards gala presented Friday night by Ann Arbor Business Review.
Canter's honor was the final award of the event, a black-tie gala that culminated in the unveiling of top honors in 11 categories, all of which are key drivers of the local economy.
Canter, senior vice president for Pfizer and site director of its Michigan laboratories, was chosen for his exemplary leadership after the drug giant announced in January that it would close its Ann Arbor campus in 2008.
Because of Canter, the community remained calm and focused after the announcement. Business leaders stepped up to strategize on how to fill the void, and Canter has been a key part of the transition - while never wavering in his advocacy for Ann Arbor.
Canter received his award from Albert Berriz, CEO of McKinley and the 2006 Executive of the Year.

Karen F.

The housing units are designated as supported treatment beds/homes for clients receiving care from the case management staff at Dawn Farm. McKinley will deliver the 34 units via 12 apartment homes beginning in October, 2007. This partnership provides a unique opportunity for McKinley to offer an entire building of contiguous units for Dawn Farm's transitional housing program.
"McKinley has had a long-standing relationship with Dawn Farm, and we are truly grateful for their mission and the important services they provide in our community. We are thrilled that the implementation of this program will reduce, by half, the waiting list for Dawn Farm clients for transitional housing.

McKinley, founded in 1968, is a well respected national real estate investment firm that owns and operates $1.7 billion in assets in 103 properties for its own account and for select clientele.

Berriz serves as Chief Executive Officer with 717 full-time employees nationwide.
The McKinley Towne Centre will expand its downtown footprint from Division Street to the Michigan Theater building, under plans unveiled Tuesday night by the Ann Arbor-based real estate company McKinley Inc.
As part of the plan, McKinley says it has an option to buy the building that houses Orchid Lane and Encore Recordings at 417-419 E. Liberty St. in 2008, although current owner Ruth Fitzgerald declined to confirm any impending sale.
McKinley plans to demolish that building, as well as the empty bank building it owns that is connected to the city-owned Liberty Square parking structure.
In its place, McKinley wants to build two new, two-story facilities with matching brick facades that will cross the alley and visually connect the building that now houses AT&T and Salsarita's Fresh Cantina with the Michigan Theater building. The buildings will house office space and a mix of a half-dozen soft-goods retailers and restaurant tenants.
"This is going to tremendously revitalize the area,'' said McKinley's chief executive officer, Albert Berriz.
Berriz and McKinley's Frances Todoro-Hargreaves presented the plan to the Ann Arbor Planning Commission on Tuesday evening as part of a request to rezone the bank building at 505 E. Liberty St. and its sister Liberty Square property at 500 E. Washington St. as a planned unit development district, and approve its site plan for the new building where the bank was. McKinley owns both buildings.
The commission tabled its decision on the rezoning and site plan, due to a legal question relating to the parking structure and aesthetic issues. The request will be rescheduled for action again, likely in two weeks.
Todoro-Hargreaves said the company will begin demolition of the bank building and construction of a new, 25,500-square-foot retail and office building in its place immediately, if final approvals are received. That building will be built with a "super structure'' base, Berriz said, that will allow floors to be added on top of the building in the future.
Peter Dale, who owns Encore Recordings, said he has not heard anything from his landlord about plans to sell the building. But if a sale happens, Dale hopes McKinley will buy him out of his lease and help pay moving expenses. His space has been home to a record store since the 1960s.
The Towne Centre concept was born two years ago when McKinley bought the building at 401 E. Liberty St., the former home of TCF Bank's Michigan headquarters. The bank moved its offices to Livonia last year.
McKinley has since renovated the structure and its facade, added an entrance off South Division Street and built the building that now houses Salsarita's, which used to be a parking lot.
"This was a huge chunk of space that no one wanted to walk by,'' said Berriz.
Google Inc., the Bodman law firm and Ann Arbor Spark are located in the Towne Centre today, along with a TCF Bank branch, Bar Louie, Salsarita's and AT&T. Berriz estimates McKinley's total investment in the Towne Centre at more than $100 million.
Also in the vicinity of the Towne Centre is the planned Ann Arbor Hotel and 4 Eleven Lofts. The hotel, on the southwest corner of Division and Washington streets, was previously the site for Metro 202, which McKinley planned to develop as apartments. The hotel is going through the site plan approval process with the city.
The 4 Eleven Lofts development is a Joseph Freed and Associates apartment project that was previously know as Citi Centre Lofts and Washington Terrace.

Removing an extra two millimetres around an area of invasive breast cancer is sufficient to minimise any residual disease in 98 per cent of patients, according to research published in the November issue of IJCP, the International Journal of Clinical Practice.
Surgeons from the Department of Breast Surgery at Good Hope Hospital, Sutton Coldfield, UK, studied 303 women who had undergone breast conserving surgery at the hospital between 2002 and 2008.
“Breast conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy is a well-established alternative to breast removal and studies have demonstrated similar survival rates in patients undergoing these procedures” explains lead author Dr Stephen Ward.
“However patients undergoing breast conserving surgery are more likely to have recurrent cancer and the amount of tissue removed around the tumour, known as the free margin, remains controversial.
The Good Hope team carried out further excision specimens on 31% of the women who had received breast conserving surgery to check for residual disease, obtaining 139 samples from 93 patients. Of these, 52 samples were from patients who had received surgery for non-invasive cancer, where the cancer is confined to the milk ducts or lobules, and 87 were from patients who had had invasive cancer, where the cancer had spread to the surrounding breast tissue.
They found that in the women who had received surgery for invasive cancer, the amount of residual disease, defined as the presence of invasive or non-invasive cancer, reduced as the free margin increased – from 35.3% with no margin to 2.4% with a margin of more than 2mm.
However, when it came to the women who had received surgery for non-invasive cancer, residual disease was higher and the pattern was less than clear. Incidence ranged from 0% at more than 5mm to 57% when the margin was between 0.1 to 0.9mm, but 44% where no margin was involved.
The research team also looked at the characteristics of the 202 women who had had a close free margin of less than 2mm and the 101 women who had had a clear free margin of 2mm or more.
They found that women with a close margin of less than 2mm were more likely to be associated with large grade three tumours than the clear margin group (46% versus 42%) and with lymphovascular invasion (52% versus 40%) and nodal involvement (48% versus 33%).
In addition to the women who underwent wider re-excision to determine any residual disease, 13% went on to have a mastectomy and the remaining 56% did not have further surgery.
“Our research found that the overall probability of finding residual disease was 2.4% if a woman had surgery where the free margin was 2mm or more from the invasive cancer. But the same pattern was not observed when the woman had surgery for non-invasive cancer, where the incidence of residual disease was higher.
“Based on these results, we feel confident that a free margin of 2mm from the area of invasive cancer is adequate to minimise residual disease, but the equivalent free margin for non-invasive cancer remains unclear.

Studies show that the presence of a canine can de-escalate a potentially violent situation more quickly and effectively than a weapon.
MedStar Union Memorial Hospital is enhancing the culture of safety on its campus with the launch of a security canine program. Two patrol dogs and their officer-handlers will add an increased crime prevention and detection service to the hospital’s 60-member security force.
Enhanced safety for patients, visitors and hospital staff will alleviate the number of calls for security assistance. Studies show that the presence of a canine can de-escalate a potentially violent situation more quickly and effectively than a weapon.
The program, consisting of two full-time officers and two German Shepherds, began in November 2013, with a $7,000 grant from Planet Dog Foundation (PDF). The hospital purchased canine Raven, and hired handler Corporal Joel Schindler. Officer Pete Morales and canine Zeus joined the team in January 2014.
The handlers and their canines completed a six-week obedience course at Misty Ridge in New Windsor, MD. Designed to acclimate the handler and dog with each other, the course focused on various command skills to prepare both for canine patrol. The team began patrolling the hospital in March.
Since then, the canines have aided in crisis prevention, already dropping the rate of security incidents on campus. In just over two short months, the dogs have been called to the Emergency Department and to various patient floors over two dozen times to address safety issues. In each case the presence of the canine was enough to safely resolve the issue and thwart a potential crisis from occurring.
Corporal Schindler and Officer Morales, along with their canines, will complete canine patrol training in the fall. Earning certification through the North American Police Work Dog Association, the team will participate in a 250-hour, four-week program covering over thirty areas of police dog training designed to prepare the officer and canine for everyday life on the job. Focused primarily on protection work, crowd control, building search and canine aggression, the course is designed to produce a “police dog” and will enable both canines to better serve the hospital.
MedStar Union Memorial Hospital is a not-for-profit, 249-bed acute care teaching hospital with a strong emphasis on cardiac care, orthopaedics and sports medicine. As one of the region’s top specialtyhospitals, MedStar Union Memorial has been caring for members of the community for more than 160 years.

Enjoy this quick easy chocolate frosting on your next batch of cupcakes, brownies or cake. It’s simply delicious! Use my quick easy chocolate frosting recipe to dress up a simple box mix or as a nice addition to cupcakes made from scratch!
We made yellow box mix cupcakes with this Quick Easy Chocolate Frosting for LuLu’s 7th birthday. They were a huge success and everyone loved the frosting!
*I tried making Whole Foods Yellow Cake Mix from scratch but those didn’t turn out right, so I ended up with back-up box mix 🙁 They were still delicious – thanks in part to the icing! If I had time for baking another batch from scratch, I would have gone with my white chocolate cupcakes.
Whip butter and vanilla together in mixer until smooth.
Frost 1 9in cake or about 24 cupcakes – Note based on a comment: if you use a lot of icing, you may need to make a double batch.
Share your thoughts on this Quick Easy Chocolate Frosting recipe! Do you have a favorite Chocolate Frosting recipe?
You might also like this easy Chocolate Buttercream Icing Recipe!
I must use a ton of frosting, because this recipe only frosted 8 cupcakes. I added more powdered sugar and milk which added some sweetness but it went a bit farther. That said, I thought it was great and I will use it again. Thanks!
Glad you liked the recipe! We must definitely not use the same amount of icing. I frosted an entire batch of cupcakes and still had some leftover. Thanks for letting me know, so I can update the post!
Hi, I tried makig this but the icing was gritty. What are you doing make cocoa powder smooth? Also, is baking cocoa fine (is it what you were using)?
Mine was nice and smooth – not gritty at all. I mixed in my Kitchenaid stand mixer, but a hand mixer should be fine. I do prefer a creamier icing, so I used closer to the 8 T half and half.
Put powder sugar and cocoa sifted thru a strainer.Should come out smooth. And the more u mix/whip the frosting somehow expands.. Lol… good luck.
I’m sorry for the typos. My app isn’t working properly and I can’t see my text!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe. Next time I make it, I’ll try less milk and see what my kiddos prefer.
Half and half is creamer – it’s like a mixture of milk and cream that I also use for coffee. At my grocery stores it actually says half and half.
I was laughing while making this tonight. As I went to grab the powder sugar that I was so sure we had in our pantry, only to find out we only had enough for about a cup (an ordeal that happened to us earlier which resulted in going to the grocery store). Thankfully, I’ve made our own poder sugar a few times. After getting through that laugh at yourself moment, your recipe was a success and was more than enough. Super easy, super smooth and tasted like chocolate frosting. Thank you!
Ha! Story of my life! I’m so glad the frosting turned out well! It was probably even better with the homemade powdered sugar. I’ll have to give it a try.

SUSA’s Business Week kicked off with a knowledge-filled workshop on the ins and outs of knowing your major and what that encompasses.
Students were given the opportunity to split up into different groups based on their major, and understand the basics on getting the most out of a career fair experience.
Workshops were also led by students, making the experience all the more relatable. One workshop, led by David Rosenstein, a marketing and management double major at the Smith School, dealt with different types of marketing and what to expect at the Career Fair.
Do not dismiss internships that aren’t based on your desired industry! Marketing majors don’t dismiss non-marketing internships, finance majors don’t dismiss non-finance companies, etc.!
Do research and connect with alumni on LinkedIn.
Students also went through an overview of the RHSmith Career Fair app, how to best research companies, and strong questions to ask recruiters.
All of this was topped off by catering from Auntie Anne’s! YUM. Useful information to further our careers and warm, freshly baked pretzels? Honestly, what’s better than that!

The likeliest of sources stepped up for the Boston Red Sox on Sunday.
David Ortiz, never one to shy away from the big moment, jacked a three-run homer off Joba Chamberlain in the ninth inning to give the Red Sox a 5-3 win over the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. The victory snapped Boston’s five-game losing streak and stopped the club’s streak of seven consecutive series ending in sweeps.
Ortiz’s heroics obviously put the Red Sox over the top. But there was much more to Sunday’s win, so let’s go over some notes from the nationally televised affair.
— The Red Sox, sticking with their usual offensive approach, drove up Tigers starter Anibal Sanchez’s pitch count early. Sanchez threw 112 pitches over six innings, while Red Sox starter John Lackey threw the same amount of pitches over eight innings.
— Lackey deserves credit for his performance. He gave up three runs (two earned) over eight innings while striking out five and walking one. Lackey has gone eight innings in back-to-back starts.
— Mike Napoli made his presence felt in his first game back off the disabled list.
Napoli reached base four times and collected three hits, including a solo homer in the sixth inning that tied the game at two apiece.
Napoli’s home run was his first since April 22, as he was mired in a long ball drought even before landing on the DL. The slugger’s team-best on-base percentage now sits at .401.
— Brock Holt again served as a spark plug atop Boston’s order.
Holt went 4-for-5 with a triple, three singles and a run scored. He jump-started the Red Sox’s ninth-inning rally by grounding a leadoff single into center field.
The offensive production came despite Holt playing in the outfield for the first time in his professional career. Holt started in left field, and even made a terrific running catch in the third inning to rob Ian Kinsler of extra bases and prevent a run from scoring.
— Dustin Pedroia went hitless but worked a key one-out walk in the ninth inning to set the stage for Ortiz’s heroics. Chamberlain threw Pedroia six straight breaking balls before firing a 3-2 fastball in the dirt.
— Xander Bogaerts made his first error at third base this season. It was a big one at the time.
The Tigers grabbed a 3-2 lead in the seventh inning when rookie Eugenio Suarez knocked in Nick Castellanos with a single into left field. Bogaerts couldn’t handle Austin Jackson’s ground ball to third base two batters prior. It looked like Bogaerts tried to rush the play in order to turn two, although it would have been difficult regardless with Jackson running down the line.
Bogaerts also went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts, although he made a couple of nice defensive plays in the ninth inning to help Koji Uehara nail down a 1-2-3 save.
— Stephen Drew went 0-for-3 with a strikeout. He’s now 1-for-14 with five strikeouts since rejoining the Red Sox.
Red Sox manager John Farrell opted to pinch-hit Jonathan Herrera for Drew in the eighth inning with left-hander Phil Coke on the mound. It was an interesting decision, especially given that Jonny Gomes remained on Boston’s bench. However, Drew still is getting his feet under him and the Tigers likely would have turned to a right-hander if Gomes entered the game.
— Miguel Cabrera left the game in the sixth inning with left hamstring tightness. He’s listed as day-to-day.

Our tours can depart on any day year round; however, for your comfort, we suggest touring during the cooler dry season temperatures found in June, July and August.

We also have access to areas of privately owned lands that commercial tour companies do not visit.
The Top End offers some of the best Aboriginal cultural experiences to be found anywhere in Australia. We will show you spectacular rock art and occupation sites that are over 50,000 years old. Brookes Australia Tours also arranges visits to Aboriginal art centres, where you have the opportunity to meet talented local indigenous artists and watch them at work.
The natural beauty of wonder of the Northern Territory includes spectacular waterfalls, sandstone escarpments, gorges and billabongs. You can swim in crystal clear natural plunge pools, enjoy billabong and gorge cruises, view vast wetlands abundant with a magnificent array of colourful bird species and, of course, you will get up close and personal with the mighty saltwater crocodile.

Despite the misleading name, the last thing the "Final Fantasy Shrine Forum" is about is actually discussing about the Final Fantasy series of Japanese Role Playing Games. It has been estimated that at least 70 % of its registered membership has never seen, let alone played, these games featuring crazy androgynous men with big (really big) swords and even bigger eyes. To the contrary, the forum is about sharing Original Soundtrack albums from any media (animes, games, movies) in archived (.rar, .zip, .tar, .bar, .001. , hjsplit etc. etc.) file formats. And don't you dare not upload it in lossless!
Hey guys, I got hold of the Completelly Complete Recording Sessions of the soundtrack to The Dark Knight Rises and I thought I'd share it in ffshrine. It's MP3 320 kbps, the quality is really high and there is little audible difference to FLAC unless you have a really expensive sound system. Hope you enjoy, and say thanks!

I've read of walking meditation, and a wise man once told me, "Stevo, life is your meditation."
Now most recently, we have adopted a watering meditation. What a wonderful way to appreciate the flowers & watch tomatoes grow.
About 2 weeks ago it finally arrived, the build to Ironman. It's most certainly one part of the season which stands out in my mind as a favourite. The race itself is awesome, but the preparation . . . oh how I love the preparation.
This year we had the opportunity for one more crack at speed just as things began to roll. It turned out to be a great weekend with an awesome group of people.
Jeff is a super strong rock star dude who threw down an awesome race. I first met Trevor a few years ago at the NB 1/2 where he showed us all how to ride a bike. He's wicked cool & a super nice guy. Mix Master Mike is on the way to Lake Placid in 3. You know where he's gonna be!. Luke rocks the Aussieness like no other, is a super dope dude, & pb'd by something like 15min! Anthony . . . I think you flew past me on the bike last year in Penticton. I've never met ya, but you're probably a cool dude too. From the looks of things the ladies had a sweet go at it too! It makes me feel really good to race with people like this. Thanks dudes & dudettes!
All who were involved rock the awesomeness world! Everyone else . . . you rock too! Hands in the air & a huge shout out.
Let's brew some IM prep stew!
And then there was cake!

I want to write about faith.
About the faith of the Pilgrims that first Thanksgiving. A faith strong enough to take them to the New World and see them through that first brutal winter when nearly half of them died.
About the faith of Adams and Jefferson, lawyer from Massachusetts and planter from Virginia, writing those revolutionary words: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
About the faith of Washington and his soldiers at Valley Forge in that cold winter of 1777.
About the faith the founders had in self-government, their faith in the blessings of liberty.
About the faith of Lincoln that we are conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
About the faith of those who gave their last full measure of devotion so that you and I could live free.
But it is hard to write about faith this Thanksgiving.
It is hard to write about faith when I see America continuing to split into two cultural camps. LGBT rights. Abortion vs. Freedom of Choice. Obamacare. Immigration. Two camps. In Washington. In the media. In the country. Shouting. Arguing. Talking past each other. Not listening. Not even acknowledging each other’s right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. What reason have I for faith?
It is hard to write about faith when I see America’s deep racial divide. Ferguson, Missouri. Trayvon Martin. Clivan Bundy. The rise of hate groups. Look at the differences of attitudes. Of perceptions. Of realities. A tragic legacy of America’s slave history affecting both Blacks and Whites. How are these differences to be bridged? When? What reason have I for faith?
It is hard to write about faith when I see war and tyranny around the world. ISIS. Israel / Palestine. India / Pakistan. Putin. North Korea. Iran. Iraq. Afghanistan. What reason have I for faith in a world seemingly gone mad?
About the faith of my grandparents, immigrants who came to America, escaping from an Anti-Semitic Europe, full of faith that here — in America — they could be free.
About the faith of Newton and Einstein. Darwin. Socrates. Plato. Hawking. The faith of those who have taught us reason.
About the faith of Rembrandt and Monet. Beethoven and Mahler. Rumi and David Whyte. Bird and Diz. Miles and Monk and Trane. The faith of those who show us the truths lying beyond our reason.
About the faith of Martin Luther King. And Gandhi. And Jesus and Hillel and Confucius and the Buddha and Lao Tzu. The faith of those who grasp that most important of all truths that — whether by God or by accident — we are all created equal and that, therefore, we have an obligation to love our neighbor as ourselves.
It is hard to write about faith when I see a shrinking middle-class.
It is hard to write about faith when I see so many of America’s young men and women unprepared for work in the 21st century.
It’s hard to write about faith when I see my brothers and sisters dying from starvation and disease; when I see the effects of climate change and deforestation and the acidification of our oceans.
About my faith that government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth but shall endure.
About my faith that we can, indeed, make the world a better place.
About my faith that the day will come when all humans will glory in the blessings of liberty.

text: LSD has long been feared. No question, it is uniquely powerful. But does it have potentially uniquely powerful benefits as well? On this program, Dr. Phil Wolfson delves into many aspects of the substance; the foolhardiness of the drug war, and the new research into potential application of LSD when it comes to addiction and depression. And it can help couples counseling as well. A very interesting and worthy discussion.
