We are proud to be a local cooperative. A cooperative is a business owned and democratically controlled by the people who use its services and whose benefits are derived and distributed equitably on the basis of use. The user-owners of the STRATA Networks cooperative are called member/patrons. They benefit from the cooperative in proportion to the use they make of it. First, services that may not otherwise be available are offered to cooperative members and those who live in their area, or district as the STRATA Networks co-op areas are called. Second, earnings are allocated to members based on the amount of business they do with the cooperative.
In many ways, cooperatives resemble other businesses. They have similar physical facilities, perform similar functions and must follow sound business practices. They are usually incorporated under state law by filing articles of incorporation, granting them the right to do business. The organizers draw up bylaws and other necessary legal papers. Members elect a board of directors and the board sets up policy and hires a manager to run the day-to-day operations.Members unite in a cooperative to get services otherwise not available, as has been the case with the STRATA Networks cooperative. Members also benefit by sharing the earnings on business conducted on a cooperative basis.
STRATA Networks cooperative member/patrons enjoy a yearly patronage check that is paid out when the cooperative generates margins from efficient operations.
The STRATA Networks cooperative is divided up into ten different districts; Altamont, Duchesne, Flattop, Fruitland, Lapoint, Neola, Randlett, Roosevelt, Tabiona, and Vernal. Each district has a director to represent the area on the board of directors.
STRATA Networks offers memberships to anyone within our service area regardless of race, religion, gender or political beliefs. Today your membership is automatic and free when you subscribe to landline service. When STRATA was formed in 1953, original members made significant, actual investments into the co-op. Even though membership no longer requires an investment, we are still working for you and in turn, you receive investor benefits. When STRATA makes a profit, the money is returned to our members through capital credits.
As a cooperative member, you are allocated capital credits based on your patronage. This allocation is a percentage of our annual earnings over and above expenses.
As nonprofit organizations, cooperatives seek to provide their patrons with the highest quality service at the lowest rates. At the end of the fiscal year, the cooperative allocated a percentage of the margins to each patron on a pro-rated basis according to the total amount paid or produced for telephone services. Upon approval of the Board of Directors, these allocations are refunded to cooperative patrons.
If I move out of the STRATA Networks Cooperative Area, will I still get my capital credits?
When you disconnect service, we will ask you for a new home of record. Your capital credits will be sent to the address you give us. These capital credits will be distributed at the discretion of the STRATA Networks board based on the financial condition of the cooperative.

Livestock such as dairy and swine often have slurry type manure. The manure is liquid but does not flow easily. It is either stored directly below the animal pens, or scraped or pumped periodically into a holding pen outside of the building.
Loading slurry manure is accomplished with a pump powered by a tractor or stationary engine. The slurry can be loaded into tractor-pulled or truck-mounted tankers, or pumped through a hose attached to a tractor that applies it as it is being pumped from the pit. The cost of loading slurry is usually low because the pump can do it quickly and the volume per animal is not usually high.
Transportation of slurry by tanker can be expensive because a lot of water is being transported and the same equipment that is hauling the slurry is usually land applying the slurry. When tankers are used, the number of hours spent transporting the slurry is frequently the limiting cost. The land may become unavailable to receive the slurry, due to crop planting times or soil conditions, before all of the slurry can be land applied. Often, the distance transported is limited so that the time constraints can be met.
If the slurry is pumped through a hose to the field, the transport time is negligible. As the slurry is pumped, it is simultaneously injected or surface applied to the land. The important cost becomes the cost of purchasing pipe and hose that is sufficient for this method of land application.
The cost of land application of slurry varies with the type of equipment used. Tankers can be expensive to own unless they are used for many animals on many acres. There is a definite economy of scale with tankers. Additionally, the tankers usually require fairly large tractors or trucks. If the livestock owner does not have a cropping enterprise that requires the large tractor, ownership of the tractor for manure distribution alone becomes expensive.
Tankers are economical for large-scale operations with slurry manure.
When slurries are applied via hoses (called dragline hoses), a tractor pulled distributor is used to move the hose around the field so that the slurry is evenly distributed. The cost of the equipment can be very expensive, but the amount of time is decreased considerably compared to using tankers because most of the time is spent in applying the slurry. Very little time is spent getting into and out of the field, as is the case when using tankers.

ATLANTA (AP) — Gardner-Webb went right at Georgia Tech Monday night, and the Runnin’ Bulldogs may have come away from their 79-69 upset win over the Yellow Jackets a little surprised after DJ Laster scored 20 of his career high-tying 25 points before intermission.
When the Bulldogs closed the first half on a 12-2 run, Laster scored five layups as Gardner-Webb (8-5) attacked Tech (5-4) with no hesitation on the way to a sixth straight win.
Gardner-Webb got more out of their aggressive pick-and-roll offense they might have expected given that Tech entered the game ranked No. 12 nationally in scoring defense (58.8 points per game) and fifth in field goal defense (36.2 percent).
Gardner-Webb shot 52.5 percent, and the visitors outscored the bigger Yellow Jackets 48-36 in the paint overall, and 28-12 on the way to a 45-38 halftime lead in McCamish Pavilion.
Laster, a 6-foot-6 senior forward, also had nine rebounds while David Efianayi and David Perez scored 12 points each.
James Banks III scored a career-high 22 points for Georgia Tech while grabbing 12 rebounds, but the long-armed 6-9 center was frequently out of position defensively.
Gardner-Webb carried the action for much of the first half with the exception of a stretch where Curtis Haywood II made four 3-point shots in a 14-2 scoring run for Tech. The Jackets took their biggest lead at 31-27 on his long ball with 5:54 to go before intermission.
The Runnin’ Bulldogs rallied back to take a seven-point halftime lead with Laster scoring 10 of their final 12 points.
After falling behind by 13 points in the second half, Georgia Tech pulled within seven points a couple times, but no closer as the Jackets missed all 11 of their 3-point shots following intermission.
Jose Alvarado scored 19 for Tech but made just 2 of 9 from beyond the arc, and Haywood didn’t score in the second half.
Gardner-Webb point guard Jose Perez scored 12 points and had a game-high eight assists, as the Bulldogs went back to Boiling Springs, N.C., happy.
Laster closed each half with a score, and the Bulldogs stunned Tech just before halftime. After Efianayi made a pair of free throws with four seconds remaining, Gardner-Webb pressured Tech, and Nate Johnson stole the inbounds pass by Banks, and passed to Efianayi, who passed to Laster for a layup right before the buzzer. The last score of the game came on Laster’s alley-oop dunk off a pass from Nate Johnson.
Gardner-Webb: The Runnin’ Bulldogs came in shooting 39.3 percent from 3-point range and bettered that by making six of 15 3-pointers (40 percent). Tech was ranked No. 5 nationally in 3-point defense (25.2 percent).
Georgia Tech: The Jackets looked out of sorts defensively while playing just their second game in 16 days and first in eight.
Gardner-Webb: The Runnin’ Bulldogs will play host to Brevard Wednesday afternoon.
Georgia Tech: The Jackets will play back-to-back SEC opponents Wednesday night at Arkansas and Saturday at home against Georgia.

Dr. Jansen graduated from the University of the Pacific in 1982 and The University of Southern California (USC) School of Dentistry in 1986. Upon graduation he accepted a teaching position at USC and was accepted into the Advanced Education in Prosthodontics graduate program. He received his certificate in Prosthodontics in 1988 from the USC School of Dentistry.
In 1988 Dr. Jansen began a private practice in Beverly Hills, California and continued teaching part time at USC. He then accepted a full time teaching position at USC in the Department of Restorative Dentistry and was named Director of Implant Dentistry. Dr. Jansen oversaw both the surgical and restorative aspects of dental implant placement and restoration. During this time he developed material to help both surgeons and restorative dentists with their patient treatment. Dr. Jansen began lecturing to groups of dental study clubs and local and statewide dental associations around the country.
In 1992 Dr. Jansen moved to Florida to work with a dental implant manufacturer. He obtained his Florida dental license and practiced part time in West Palm Beach with a group of three surgeons. This Palm Beach boutique surgical practice place well over 1500 implants annually. There he concentrated on treatment planning for referral dentists, esthetic patients and restorative complications. Working with the dental implant manufacturer, he helped develop and patent implant components used in many restorative implant procedures today. Dr. Jansen also traveled extensively to dental schools here in the United States and around the world teaching about treatment planning and restoring dental implants.
Dr. Jansen moved to Monterey, California in 1996 and began his private Prosthodontic practice. Shortly afterward, he started an on-premises dental laboratory. After 21 years of practicing, Dr. Jansen continues to lecture while seeing patients 4 and a half days a week. His lectures include speaking to dental specialty groups, dental associations, dental study clubs, year long mentor programs, live surgical/restorative programs, and dental auxiliary programs. He is a member of the American College of Prosthodontists, the Academy of Osseointegration, the American Dental Association, the California Dental Association, and the Monterey Bay Dental Society. He is also a fellow of the American College of Dentists.

The Diamondbacks were not expected to contend, and they did not disappoint. They were last .500 at 5-5, last as high as 3rd place on May 1st, achieved last place on May 9th and were never out of the cellar again. Ian Kennedy, their best starter, was the WORST starter in MLB just two years ago. Kind of says it all.
They had three four hitters, Kelly Johnson (2B), Stephen Drew (SS), Chris Young (CF) and Justin Upton (RF). All are young and form a potential core of a real team.
The rotation wasn’t too bad, actually. Kennedy (still only 25) was actually pretty great, and 23-year-old Daniel Hudson was phenomenal in a dozen starts. Only Rodrigo Lopez was over 30, so there is promise there for the future.
I am not sure how many minuses to attach to that F, but this bullpen was historically bad. They were a full run worse than the next-to-worst bullpen, and THAT’S bad. When your most valuable bullpen piece has a value of 14 and a rating of B-, well, you really want to stay with those young starters! And when that key piece is Aaron Heilman, who is a reject from a bad Mets team, well, blowing up the pen and starting over seems like a great idea.

Part of the allure of fast food is the fact that it’s fast. Of course, that’s not always the case now that it’s so popular. You can sometimes wait in line for a half hour to get a reheated burger and soggy fries. But, we go anyway, sacrificing quality for the time we think we’re saving after a long day.
You can make quick and healthy, not to mention man-friendly, fare at home if you plan a little bit ahead. I’ve had Hormel Beef Tips in the freezer for several weeks. I’ve also had a package of Uncle Ben’s Santa Fe Ready Whole Grain Medley tucked away in the pantry. The brown rice medley includes black beans, corn and peppers. The beef tips heat in the microwave for 4-6 minutes. The rice, in its own microwavable pouch, is done in 90 seconds. With a sprinkle of reduced-fat shredded cheese, this is an attractive, hearty meal that’s ready for the table in less than ten minutes. Plus, it’s quality food; the two-serving meal delivers, per serving, 537.5 calories, 7.75g fiber, and 43.75g protein. The fat is a little high at 18g, and if you’re watching your sodium, you’ll want to be careful of prepackaged items like these. Still, this is terrific alternative to drive-thru nutrition any day of the week.

Are You Really Ready for Big Data? What you need to know about data governance.
The insurance world is abuzz with talk of analytics and big data. Unfortunately, most companies are simply not ready to take advantage of these technologies. Why? Because their data is a mess. Whether due to multiple system conversions or merger and acquisition activity, data is segregated and inaccurate. Not to mention that today’s analytics go beyond traditional databases to mine unstructured data as well. This session will discuss how to understand the data you have and create a plan for providing that data in an organized, accurate and consistent format to your organization.

I never cease to be amazed by Maria’s robot transformation scene in Metropolis. The robot design is itself beautiful but the transformation and its mix of animation, practical effects, and time lapse photography are beautiful to behold. And to think this was all done in the 1920’s! Amazing!
Robbie provided an entire generation with a view of what a sci-fi robot was supposed to look like and how it was supposed to behave. A seemingly all-powerful machine, Robby is also imbued with sophisticated manufacturing capabilities and he’s programmed to protect life, a feature that later in the movie provides the basis for a significant plot point. An added attraction is that Robbie appears in a movie that is just plain gorgeous to view.
Possibly the most physically unique robot to ever appear in a motion picture, TARS is also programmed with a sense of humor. Most wondrous to behold his TARS’method of speedy locomotion on the water planet that takes advantage of his interlocking and segmented construction. Amazingly, TARS also operates efficiently in zero gravity.
This is possibly the best movie ever made about what happens when robots think and act like humans. The “mecha” operate in a no man’s land outside human society where they are discarded or attempt to escape physical and sexual servitude. The main focus of the movie is a child robot who insists he wants to be a “real boy” thereby creating an unresolvable conflict in the human world. Some of the scenes in this film are intentionally disturbing.
There are any many more, of course, but these are my favorites. What’s on your list?

Thank you for contacting me with regard to your student loan questions. Because of some changes in the student loan law landscape, I have changed how I offer my services.
The good news for you is that in many cases, modifying your student loan payment terms has become a good bit easier. If your loans are government issued or guaranteed, the income based repayment programs have been expanded and, perhaps equally important, the Department of Education website has become much easier to navigate.
If your student loans were issued by private banks, you still do not have a lot of options, but I intend to cover in the paragraphs below the few options that you do still have.
Now, about the change in my law practice. I am still available to answer questions, offer legal advice or help you implement a plan to get your student loan debt under control. However, I can no longer offer free consultations.
I am sure you can understand that running a law practice is a business and I can’t stay in business if I spend my day offering free advice to folks who do not hire me. My experience has been that most of the time folks like you who are researching student loan debt on the Internet are smart enough to understand the (vastly improved) Department of Education web site.
So, in the paragraphs that follow I am going to provide to you at no cost most of what I have been offering potential clients in formerly free consultations. Not surprisingly this free information comes with a disclaimer: the information that follows does not constitute legal advice nor does it create an attorney-client relationship. If you need advice specific to your situation you should retain a lawyer. Finally, the laws related to student loan debt change from time to time and you should not assume that anything you read on the Internet is totally accurate or up to date.
Before you can hope to resolve your student loan debt problem you need to know what you owe and to whom. If you have not already done so, you should set up a file where you keep bills, documentation and collection letters.
The NSLDS site will provide you with a list of all government issued or government guaranteed loans and their payment status. Private student loans do not appear on your NSLDS.
Your credit reports should provide you with information about both government and private student loans. My experience has been that 95% of the time, your student loan information will appear at one or both of these places. Yes, there are exceptions – that’s where you rely on your memory, your gut and, of course, your student loan file.
As of 2019 this page displays 2 columns – “I’m Looking for a Loan” and “I already have a loan.” Under the I already have a loan column there are 8 choices relating to repayment, consolidation, curing default, cancellation of certain loans and deferment.
Most of the folks I speak with are interested in the Income Based Repayment plans. If you click on the IBR section you will find a wealth of information about how the IBR programs work.
The estimator will prompt you to log in to your NSLDS account and it will pull your actual loan information. Further, the estimator will only allow you to choose repayment options that are actually available. The estimator will calculate and display your various options, and once you choose an option, the system will walk you through filling out the paperwork.
Once you complete and submit the paperwork you need to make the payments and update the Department of Education annually (usually) about your income.
The United States Bankruptcy Code says that Department of Education issued student loans cannot be discharged in bankruptcy unless not doing so would create an “undue hardship” for the debtor and his/her family.
As discussed elsewhere on this website, the Brunner case defines undue hardship in most federal judicial circuits and it imposes very strict limitations on what you need to assert undue hardship.
In recent years, however, some bankruptcy judges in some jurisdictions have been backing off Brunner to some degree by agreeing to discharge a percentage of the government student loan. There are not a lot of reported cases because most people filing bankruptcy don’t have the money to litigate this issue. However, the trend is clearly in the direction of a liberalization of the discharge standard.
As discussed on my website, there is no equivalent in the private student loan world to the income based repayment programs that are available for Department of Education loans.
I read Part A as referring to government loans issued by the Department of Education.
I read Part B as referring to private student loans.
Part B excepts from discharge an educational loan that is a qualified education loan as defined in the IRS Code at Section 221(d)(1).
The term “qualified education loan” means in indebtedness incurred by the taxpayer solely to pay qualified higher education expenses.
What if the debtor student was not a taxpayer at the time he/she incurred the private student loan?
What if the private student loan amount was for more than the cost of education?
A number of bankruptcy judges have accepted these arguments to find that some private student loans should not be treated as student loans for bankruptcy purposes. An example of one of these court decisions is the Dufrane case, which you can read by clicking here.
Another option for private student loan debtors is refinance.
There companies out there that offer refinancing options. A helpful website to visit is https://studentloanhero.com. You can also Google “private student loan refinance” for other options, but be careful to avoid scams.
You can use the bankruptcy process to delay collection, and in very limited cases, wipe out private student loans. Bankruptcy can also be helpful in eliminating other debts and providing for the surrender of homes or cars so that you have the money to pay your private student loans. I have been a personal bankruptcy lawyer for over 30 years and I can tell you that student loans are a leading cause of personal bankruptcy.
You can try to work out a repayment plan with your private student loan lender. I rarely see this work but as private student loan lenders come under more political pressure they may begin to loosen the reins a little.
If I had to guess, I would say that there is some chance that Congress will address private student loan debt. In what form and when, I can’t say but it would be wise to keep an eye out for changes.
Anyone who has ever dealt with bill collectors knows what it is like to be harassed for payment. In the case of student loan debt bill collectors can be especially nasty because they know that student loan debt generally cannot be discharged in bankruptcy and that many borrowers do not know about all of their repayment options.
Third party debt collectors are subject to the rules set out in the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and if a collector violates the FDCPA rules you may have a claim for damages against that collector.
Often the best evidence of harassment arises from phone conversations so whenever possible I recommend that student loan debtors record their conversations with debt collectors – student loan or otherwise. Every state has different rules about recording phone calls – some states only require one party (i.e., you) to consent to the recording, while other states require you to get prior verbal permission to record calls.
Many smart phones allow for recording of calls, or you can pick up an inexpensive digital records and earphone microphone.
Learn more about FDCPA violations on my website https://www.fdcpahelp.com.
You also may have a cause of action against your student loan servicing agency for improper reporting on your credit report (a Fair Credit Reporting Act) claim.
I hope that the above information will help you navigate the sometimes troubled waters of student loan debt management and payments. If you are overwhelmed and need to buy a little of my time to clarify what options are out there, to ask for advice about how to proceed, or for help putting a repayment plan into place, please let me know. You can email me directly here. I accept PayPal or credit card payments through PayPal.
However you decide to proceed, I wish you the best of luck and best of success in resolving your student loan issues.

A depressing look from Joel Kotkin about the not-so-Golden state of California. And if the current gang remains in charge in Washington, it’s the fate of the rest of the country.
Don’t worry — Gov. Brown will turn things around. Just you wait!
Looks like the state has run out of other peoples’ money. I think Oregon may be next; or Michigan.
Northern California would make a nice new state for a fresh start.
Northern California sounds good, just draw the line right above Santa Rosa. Then take the lower part of the state and divide it into Eastern and Western California. As a rough cut just draw the state line up the San Andreas fault line until it hits the central valley, then just follow the west side of the I5 all the way north. The most expensive parts of this will be the water meters we have to install on the aquaduct system to meter and charge an appropriate amount for all the water that Western California will need to buy from Eastern California.

2018 Australian Kart Championships RD1, Monarto S.A.
Troy Loeskow recorded Patrizicorse’s 16th straight podium with a super comeback after qualifying down in 15th due to a wet track and slick tyre combination.
Both Loeskow and Dylan Drysdale, who drive the all new Ricciardo Kart DR01-S9 SH chassis, finished the final in 2nd and 4th (Qualified 17th) and now sit 2nd and equal 4th respectively in the championship standings.
The final was an exciting battle of speed as Loeskow chased down the leader Cameron who got an early jump starting from the pole. Drysdale slipped into 3rd and was only relegated back to 4th in the closing laps due to an injury sustained in the final.
In x30, Patrizicorse drivers Norberg, Lobko and Pancione showed the great potential of the S9 Chassis line. However a few mechanical issues robbed them of the results they warranted. A notable result in the final was Christian Pancione’s drive from 38th on the grid to 21st. Ryan Norberg finished 12th and Zak Lobko 27th.
Our youngest driver Mattia Marzella-Fittipaldi, on debut at AKC level, had a goal to make the final. Unfortunately for Mattia we missed by one spot. It was a great effort on debut with so little experience.
RD2 heads to the newly upgraded Albury circuit in country VIC/NSW on the 14-15th April.
Patrizicorse products again dominated at AKC level with both PWR Radiators, TM Engines and Vrooam Lubricants taking a clean sweep on the KZ and X30 podiums.

Christmas has begun at the Vatican with this ceremony that every year remembers an event that changed the history of humanity more than 2,000 years ago.
After the music came the most awaited moment, the presentation of the spectacular Christmas scene.
This year the Nativity is very special. It is made of sand obtained from the beaches of the Italian town of Jesolo, near Venice. It has been delicately modeled in the past weeks using tons of sand, a total of 24 sand trucks.
And after the manger, there was the lighting of the tree.
It is a red fir tree that comes from the forest of Cansiglio, in the province of Pordenone, about 700 kilometers north of Rome. It measures 68 feet and weighs more than four tons.
The manger and the tree will remain illuminated in St. Peter's Square until January 13, the day when the Church ends Christmas with the feast of the Baptism of the Lord.

Despite the overall assumption that members of the millennial generation are difficult to please, recent evidence has indicated that millennials are most commonly their employer’s most fervent supporters.
The millennial stigma comes with labels of lazy, expecting everything to be handed to them and their excessive need for approval. However, millennials are proving this wrong with their dedication and enthusiasm for their jobs.
This research also indicated that millennials are more positive about moving up in the company, “54 percent favorable, compared to the 46 percent of the overall workforce,” and 71% feel that their managers support their development. This not only shows their enthusiasm for their current job, but it showcases a willingness to create a name for themselves.
The analysis also unearthed where millennials core values and faith lies within the company. This generation tends to stake their belief in creating change and making this world a better place. They’re thinking big, optimistically and are looking to inspire. 71%, compared to 65% of the entire workforce, said they were in favor of “the extent to which their companies are responding effectively to changes in the business environment.” 78% were also in favor of the prospects of success for their companies over the next 2-3 years. They were overwhelmingly in favor of their companies treatment of people with respect as well as promoting diversity in the workplace.
This analysis seems to refute the common millennial stigma as it shows dedication and hard working business men and women taking on the workplace challenges with an overarching positivity.
They are not intrinsically different humans from all who came before them, as most books, articles, podcasts and business journals often suggest. New strategies are being crafted every day on how to manage millennials’ sense of entitlement and perceived laziness. It seems a bit silly to go through all this work in order to understand this generation.
It is estimated that by 2025, millennials will make up 75% of the workforce. But based on the evidence of this analysis combined with the fact that millennials are highly educated and extremely tech savvy, it seems as though they will become a force of their own in the business world.

I’m writing to you with your article on exclusion (TES of October 9 2015) in front of me. It’s good to have a light shone into this dark corner. To put it in journalistic terms this is collateral damage happening right here at home with full official approval. Now it’s time to capitalize on your efforts and get into action. I’m writing to you in the form of an open letter because others share our commitment and may take your article and this letter in reply as an invitation to act. I hope you approve!
Your final two sections ‘When ‘no excuses’ is an excuse’ and ‘Progress not attainment’ provide a succinct summary of the problem and open the door to the solution.
There is a powerful force driving exclusion and you bring into the open with your first statement in ‘When ‘no excuses’ is an excuse’.
What is an SEND child? They are they more than their disability, they are the same as all the other children, different from each other. But instead of focusing on their strengths, their hopes and their successes we trap them in the system of diagnosis and intervention that separates them from the other non-SEND children and then we send them on their way and often away.
Everyone from the Minister of Education downwards accepts that this is the correct procedure. Well not everyone. You can see the consequences of renaming difference as illness but you are fenced in by a system that catches many of us in its net. We are told that the small minority of children who cause all the problems must have something wrong with them because they are so different to the healthy others. As you rightly say records of behavioural incidents are used as rap sheets, but, and this is a big but, to use them as a basis for diagnosis of deficit and subsequent intervention as you mention would only be doing more of the same, keeping their difference and their illness at the centre of our thinking. Julie Dixon, the primary pupil referral unit head you quote, says that schools struggling to avoid excluding children cannot get the help of educational psychologists when they need it most. Why do we need a psychologist? Because if only we can get a diagnosis of deficit by a professional who does that kind of work, we’ll know what to do. Try to get specialist input in school. Send them away to special school maybe with all the other ill children.
So here’s the problem. We know that no two children are identical and a significant minority of children seem to be more than usually different to the others. We know that they are not physically ill but they have something wrong with them that makes them behave in ways we don’t like. In a very few cases we can tell by a blood test that a person is different but mostly we look at what they do, how they behave, and use that to fit them into a category of illness. We can put all of this different minority into a catch-all group, and label it SEND. Some people would say that we could put all children into the SEND category at some time in their lives but let’s keep it narrower than that. Within the big group we have smaller subgroups which are defined by specific behaviour. If we collect enough data we can assign children to their correct subgroup and may be able to suggest corrective strategies including medication, if we believe that change is possible. This presupposes that SEND is a fixed deficit of an individual child and we can design services to address the deficit.
To sum this up; the SEND child is fixed, they are what they are so services must adapt.
In ‘Progress, not attainment’ you write that Dixon gives advice to heads and SEND coordinators as an expert in behaviour and this is effective in reducing exclusions. That is a good thing. We recognise that some of these children with SEND do need highly specialized teaching and this may be in a specialized setting, not via exclusion but by planned action. It’s important to remember that the system of diagnosis of SEND and its subcategories of deficit is highly uncertain and many children are poorly understood at the same time as they are clearly struggling in school. You quote Sam Baars as saying that schools should look beyond the behaviour to its cause, the undiagnosed need that is driving it. This is asking a lot, for teachers as frontline professionals to be highly developed experts in all aspects of behaviour and mental illness. In practice the cause is usually to be guessed at by teachers, doing their best as always.
If all teachers cannot become behaviour experts this creates another problem, but at least it is a consistent problem and results in the most available categories of deficit, like ASD and ADHD and increasingly Attachment Disorder are the most likely to be assigned to children who are different. The current diagnostic system concludes that these children are mentally unwell and an adaptive service will do its best by giving them different treatment to their friends in school and we can call this inclusion.
All this exists, the diagnostic deficit focused process, the lack of training of teachers and the shortage of specialists like educational psychologists who might be in a better position to make more informed guesses.
And now at last we come to the point of this letter.
You quote Baars as saying that there is an opportunity to create a new system, valuing childrens’ progress rather than attainment and you add that ‘we stand a chance of creating a better future, a truly inclusive one, in which children who have SEND are understood and helped not shown the door.’ I might just edit this slightly by removing the label to say that we can create an inclusive future in which children are treated equally, understood and helped and not shown the door.
You draw this together in your last paragraph, a turnkey, where you do the same dreaming as you’ve always done.
We’re teachers, we already have permission to stay with children’s needs, to be imaginative and kind. Indeed if we asked the parents and carers of children they would probably say they expect it of us and we certainly have their permission.
We need to be able to say ‘This is what we do and this is how we do it’.
What need to share our successes, to develop a clear voice to say that the future starts here, today with a structured way of working to create inclusion and allow exclusion to wither on the vine.
What kind of structure could possibly produce this result? The solution-focused approach can certainly make a strong contribution.
We’ve made a great start, now let’s do more of what works.

We would like to share 7 reasons to visit Hanoi in Vietnam!
Traveling in Southeast Asia can get a bit same-same after a while. It’s all temples, heat and tourist traps, right? Until you get to Hanoi.
The Vietnamese capital is like a breath of fresh air.
The city is a graceful pastiche of cultural influences from the French and Chinese, while the Vietnamese have stubbornly retained their local ways.
Express faith in humankind; step confidently out on Hanoi roads. Crossing the road in Hanoi is unlike anywhere else.
It's a little bit like bungee jumping. You just have to believe it when people tell you "It's going to be alright, just keep walking!" despite all your instincts telling you not to take the leap.
Once you do take that first step off the pavement, there's no turning back. You can only continue putting one foot in front of the other and hope that the mopeds will swerve around you instead of into you.
The road traffic is crazy in Hanoi, but it is organized chaos and somehow pedestrians always make it to the other side.
On foot it's a test of faith in fellow humankind as you step into moped madness, trusting scooters to avoid you as you cross the road.
On the back of a motorbike, it's like jumping into a river and running the rapids. Precarious and exhilarating.
Bia Hoi, Hanoi's "morning brew,", enjoyed all day. Hanoi is famous for it's dirt-cheap, unpasteurized beer made fresh daily -- Bia Hoi.
By day's end, unsold beer goes off and is thrown away. But there's rarely any left each evening.
The most famous Bia Hoi for travelers are right in the heart of the old quarter on Bia Hoi Corner at the intersection of Luong Ngoc Quyen and Ta Hien streets.
Hang Bac in the Old Quarter. Once the guild street of silversmiths, now home to travel agencies, tourist cafes and tombstone carvers. The Old Quarter isn't just a figurative phrase in Hanoi.
The Vietnam War -- most iconic war? The Vietnam War is remembered as much for the atrocities that occurred as it is for the anti-war demonstrations abroad.
For scars of U.S. bombings of Hanoi check out the Long Bien Bridge which crosses the Red River and transported supplies from the port at Hai Phong. Or visit the Hoa Lo prison, dubbed the "Hanoi Hilton" by American GIs.
Shoulder-pole vendors dance down the streets of Hanoi. As a tourism capital, Hanoi is surprisingly devoid of mega shopping malls. Instead, there's the rather more interesting one-(wo)man shoulder pole shop.
Buy something -- bowls of pho, mangosteens, bunches of flowers, hair clips, household utensils -- and the photos will be accompanied by a broad Vietnamese grin.
Ho Chi Min getting Twitpic-ed. Hanoi is the only city in Southeast Asia with an embalmed leader on display. The real body of Ho Chi Min lies preserved in his mausoleum, much against his own wish to be cremated.
Joie de vivre translates well in Vietnam. Whilst people from Hanoi are considered aloof by southern Vietnamese, they have nothing on Parisians.
However, the success of French-Vietnamese fusion is best experienced through Hanoi's food.

An Israeli company has developed technology to harvest water from the air.
We learned something of the water cycle when we were at school; that the atmosphere is filled with invisible droplets of water vapour that have evaporated from the bodies of liquid water, and when the temperature of the vapour drops, it turns back into water.
An Israeli company called Water-Gen has built machines using the principle to harvest condensation. The company’s vision is to provide humanity with an abundant, renewable source of fresh, clean drinking water, by extracting it directly from the air, our most abundant water resource.
Using a system comprised of a set of plastic ‘leaves’ (a thermally low-conductive material) stacked together, the machinery funnels air in various directions, and in the process, seems to create pure drinking water out of nothing.
The target is to extract water from the air with minimum energy, the founder and co-CEO Arye Kohavi said in a recent interview in Business Insider.
Water-Gen was one of seven Israeli companies that presented technological innovations at the United Nations General Assembly in September.
The company currently makes three sizes of water generating machines, each of which must be plugged into a power source. At 80 degrees and 60 percent humidity, the biggest can yield about 825 gallons (3,122 litres) per day, but the technology is scalable.
The Water-Gen team is looking to bring the technology to two types of places: areas that don’t have drinkable tap water, and locations that are warm and humid. The two sets of conditions often overlap.
Water-Gen is currently testing its products in cities like Mumbai, Shanghai and Mexico City, as well as more rural locations. The company’s products are expected to be commercially available by the end of next year.
Climate change and the growing world population are making the accessible drinking water increasingly important, so the company hopes to bring its technology directly to governments.

Tackle Tyron Smith has missed the last two games with a neck injury but plans to be back on the field Sunday against the Eagles.
Do their job Sunday afternoon in Arlington and the Cowboys can make the rest of their 2018 regular season pretty simple. They won't have to worry, as they did last year, about results in Detroit, Seattle or Carolina, nor will they face the pressure of having to win out merely to have a chance of getting the last spot in the NFC's post-season tournament.
Beat the Eagles and all the Cowboys will need to do to get into the playoffs is win one of their three remaining games against the 6-6 Colts, the 5-7 Buccaneers or the 4-8 Giants, barring some truly unforeseen circumstances.
The simple path to the post-season is a just reward for an almost perfect month of football. Over a four-game stretch beginning Nov. 11, the Cowboys have beaten the last two NFC champions (the Falcons and Eagles), the consensus best team in the conference (the Saints) and the team that led the NFC East throughout the first half of the season (the Redskins).
Thursday night's victory over New Orleans, combined with a couple of good results on Sunday, left the Cowboys with a 75 percent chance to make the playoffs, according to the simulator on The New York Times' The Upshot blog. A win over Philadelphia will jump that number above 90 percent, a place the Cowboys haven't been since the 2016 season.
While a win over the Eagles is no sure thing — the defending Super Bowl champions have won four of the teams' last five meetings in Arlington — the Cowboys will enter the game as favorites and set to get a major boost on the personnel front.
Coach Jason Garrett, Ezekiel Elliott and the Cowboys hope to have a fully loaded offense for the stretch run.
After missing the Cowboys' last two games with a stinger, left tackle Tyron Smith told reporters Monday that he expects to play against the Eagles.
"I feel great," Smith said. "For me, it was more frustrating than anything. I trust our team doctors. I'm going through the whole program. I guess it wasn't ready yet. We thought it would be ready by [the game against the Saints]. I guess it wasn't."
Smith has yet to give up a sack in 2018. In his absence, the Saints sacked Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott seven times Thursday. The Cowboys offensive line, one of the league's best as recently as last season, has been a liability throughout the team's winning streak. With Smith's return, the Cowboys and their fans will get their best idea yet of what the offense might look like as a finished product.
If Prescott, running back Ezekiel Elliott and Smith can return to anywhere close to the heights of their superb 2016 season, the Cowboys could be one of the hottest teams in the NFL heading into the playoffs, but maybe that discussion's better saved for after the Eagles game.
The Cowboys host Philadelphia at 3:25 p.m. Sunday at AT&T Stadium. The game will be shown on Fox 4.
Eagles (6-6) — @Dal., @LAR, HOU, @Was.

Forex brokers, traders and financial institutions are watching with interest as the Japanese yen continues to strengthen against other major currencies.
Wednesday's Asian session saw the country's national bank announce a commitment to maintaining their existing monetary policy, reviving investor confidence in the currency.
Wednesday's Asian session saw the Bank of Japan announce that it was committed to its existing monetary policy, deciding with an 8-1 vote that it should be maintained. This decision will see the country continue to raise its monetary base by around JPY 80 trillion per annum.
The announcement means that Japan will not be adding to the stimulus plan that saw the currency take a tumble in October. Instead it will continue at its current annual pace of increasing the annual base by 80 trillion yen (US$679 billion).
The Bank of Japan has adapted to its decision swiftly, cutting its inflation projection to 1 per cent for the fiscal year beginning in April 2015. In the same move, it has also raised its gross domestic product forecast to 2.1 per cent.
Marcel Thieliant, an economist at Capital Economics, has described these acts by the Japanese financiers as "the most important element of today's meeting," going on to explain that "if anything, these projections were more optimistic than we had expected."
Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda is expected to deliver a press conference on the decision shortly.
The statement by the Bank of Japan catalysed an end to the yen's three-day drop against the dollar, suggesting that it has gone a long way to allaying investor fears following the chaos and uncertainty trigged by the Swiss crisis.
Mitul Kotecha, head of Asia-Pacific currency strategy at Barclays Plc in Singapore, explained: "Given we've got the ECB tomorrow and expectations are pretty high there, and given the SNB, there has been at least some residual expectation that we would see some action. There's some dawning realisation now that the Bank of Japan aren't going to follow suit."
This "dawning realisation" has seen the yen gain 1 per cent since yesterday (January 20th), climbing to 117.66 per dollar. It also rose 0.7 per cent against the euro, to 136.31 yen per euro.
The decision has caused the yen to gain against all of its sixteen major counterpart currencies.

The photographs don't always make it to social media ... This particular cane is natural willow detailed with a rainbow top. These canes are fabulous and blingy whilst still remaining that little bit more understated. There are usually canes in stock, and bespoke ones are always available with a multitude of options and finishes. Please get in touch if you would like to order a crystal top show cane or something more bespoke.
There is a small internal problem with the website's mobile site at the moment affecting ordering on smartphones/iPads.

I know I mentioned previously coffee in just one of my articles, but a paragraph does not do Italian coffee justice. Italians love coffee. It completely permeates the culture and so they drink it-all the full time. However, there are an awful lot of principles about coffee drinking in Italy. Within the U.S., specifically on college campuses, you order what you want, when you need it, and after that you drink it. One Wednesday evening we discovered about drinking coffee in Italy from 1 of Umbra’s food research professors, and a lot of fun facts about coffee too.
Coffee ended up being initially discovered by a goat herder in Ethiopia, who noticed one day that their goats had been actually hyper after consuming some seeds. For some reason, that resulted in finding that milling said seeds and then soaking them in hot water made a delicious beverage that will in addition make humans hyper. Coffee was initially commercially cultivated in Yemen, in the Arabian Peninsula. The Islamic world started drinking it, probably simply because they don’t are drinking alcoholic beverages, depending on the rules of their faith.
Coffee managed to get to Venice, that was a bustling slot in the centre Ages. It had been originally offered in pharmacies as a cure-all: in the event that you couldn’t sleep, take in some coffee. In the event that you couldn’t remain awake, take in some coffee. If you had belly discomforts, drink some coffee. It got therefore popular that also a pope considered in, and stated it was okay for Christians to drink coffee.
“Un café” will get you a go of espresso. I am not an admirer — it is strong and dark and sour, and makes myself would you like to gag. It’s in addition no more than a go’s well worth of coffee.
“Un café Americano” will bring you a watered down espresso. It’s as near to a frequent cup of coffee as it gets, and after that you can truly add sugar.
Don’t make the error of ordering “un latte, ” since you are certain to get a funny appearance, after which receive a hot cup of milk. That’s what latte is in Italian — milk.
Alternatively, you either want a “un latte machiato” or “un café macchiato.” “Macchia” is Italian for stain, when you order “un latte machiato, ” you will get milk with a stain of coffee, while “un café macchiato” is coffee with a stain of milk.

text: The goal of this study is to explore different strategies of coping with boredom. A questionnaire was developed targeting two dimensions of coping that can be assumed to be relevant to boredom, namely approach- versus avoidance-orientated coping and cognitive versus behavioral-orientated coping. Given to a sample of 979 students, the structure of the coping with boredom scales could be verified by confirmatory factor analysis. In a second step, 3 different boredom-coping groups were identified by latent profile analysis. In a third step, differences of these groups in their emotions, cognitions, and academic achievement were analyzed. Students who used cognitive-approach coping strategies were less frequently bored, experienced more positive emotions and cognitions and performed better than behavioral-avoidance-orientated students.

The carriers containing Ag nanoparticles are covered with various dielectrics of AlN, SiO2 and the composites thereof that are placed on a black background to enhance the reflectivity contrast of various colours at a normal angle of incidence.
Researchers at Aalto University, Finland, have developed a biosensor that enables creating a range of new easy-to-use health tests similar to home pregnancy tests. The plasmonic biosensor can detect diseased exosomes even by the naked eye. Exosomes, important indicators of health conditions, are cell-derived vesicles that are present in blood and urine.
A rapid analysis by biosensors helps recognize inflammatory bowel diseases, cancer and other diseases rapidly and start relevant treatments in time. In addition to using discovery in biomedicine, industry may use advanced applications in energy.
Researchers created a new biosensor by depositing plasmonic metaparticles on a black, physical body that absorbs all incident electromagnetic radiation. A plasmon is a quantum of plasma oscillation. Plasmonic materials have been used for making objects invisible in scientific tests. They efficiently reflect and absorb light. Plasmonic materials are based on the effective polarizabilities of metallic nanostructures.
"It is extraordinary that we can detect diseased exosomes by the naked eye. The conventional plasmonic biosensors are able to detect analytes solely at a molecular level. So far, the naked-eye detection of biosamples has been either rarely considered or unsuccessful", says Professor Mady Elbahri from Aalto University.
Plasmonic dipoles are famous for their strong scattering and absorption. Dr. Shahin Homaeigohar and Moheb Abdealziz from Aalto University explain that the research group has succeeded in demonstrating the as-yet unknown specular reflection and the Brewster effect of ultrafine plasmonic dipoles on a black body host.
"We exploited it as the basis of new design rules to differentiate diseased human serum exosomes from healthy ones in a simple manner with no need to any specialized equipment", says Dr. Abdou Elsharawy from the University of Kiel.
The novel approach enables a simple and cost-effective design of a perfect colored absorber and creation of vivid interference plasmonic colors.
According to Elbahri, there is no need to use of sophisticated fabrication and patterning methods. It enables naked-eye environmental and bulk biodetection of samples with a very minor change of molecular polarizability of even 0.001%.

This is a calf-length jacket, which (like the wedding-coat) is fastened by hooks and eyes in the front, opening up below the waist.Â Autumn leaves on gold gauze run down the two center panels in front, and down the single panel in center back.Â We’re still discussing whether to use gauze (and possibly leaves) on the front and back side panels.
You’ll notice that we’ve added sleeves.Â We haven’t really settled on this yet; the left-hand (front) shows a bell sleeve and the right-hand sketch (back) shows a slightly tapered sleeve.Â I like the idea of the gold gauze floating on the sleeve, but wasn’t sure about adding more autumn leaves.Â We both agreed that we’d have to see it to know for sure.Â You can only get so far on samples.
We also agreed that the falling leaves should shade from yellow-bronze to gold, orange, red, purple, brown – with some gold embroidery and/or beads to make them stand out.Â (Especially the brown leaves, which might otherwise get lost against a purple-brown background.)Â We’ll establish the colors and color sequence more firmly once the background fabric is woven.
I do not, however, plan to wind and weave all the warp in one go.Â Wisdom suggests that a single panel as a sample might be a good idea before committing to 28 yards of warp.Â Also, I will need to clear the loom sometime between now and August in order to weave samples for the article I’ve agreed to write for Handwoven, which means that a 2.5 month project is probably not a good idea.Â Finally, weaving off a 25+yard warp that long in fine threads in a two-shuttle weave sounds like an Endless Project.Â A girl needs a little variety!
So I’m going to start by warping up for two or three panels, weave one up as a sample, and see how that goes before committing to more.Â I suspect there will be considerable fiddling before I get the sample right, which is why I’m putting on enough warp for several panels.
I will also, honest to goodness, start working on that Handwoven article again.Â It’s not due until August 1, but dates have a way of creeping up on you, and being a project manager, I feel obliged to uphold the honor of my profession with an on-time delivery.

In the last 10 years we have provided advanced and defensive driving courses to companies and private individuals in Staffordshire, including Stoke, Cheadle, Stafford, Cannock and Leek. Being a national driving course provider, we can provide training in any location of the UK. With training that is scheduled to start in Staffordshire, we have a wide range of roads to conduct the training.
The M6 runs through the county and a wide range of A roads such as the A53 and A518 provides a varied experience for driver training. We often head west in to Shropshire during a course, using the A518 or A53, or depending on your location, we can head south into the West Midlands, or even east into Derbyshire. The routes we take on an advanced driving course is designed to provide the very best learning experience for you.
Our courses are bespoke to the needs of the driver, and so with one course we may focus on motorway training, and with another we may send more time on rural road driving.
During rural road training, we place emphasis more on car control, and how to deal with varying road surfaces, corners, and (often) hazards like mud on the road, blind entrances and farm machinery.

A NUMBER of bus lanes in Coventry are set to be scrapped for use by motorists.
The council is first considering introducing a six-month trial by suspending the bus lanes affected.
It follows a pledge by Coventry City Council leader George Duggins earlier this year.
Now the ruling Labour cabinet will discuss the measure at its meeting next Tuesday (November 29). The trial will begin in January next year.
Coventry has seen a 20 rise in traffic in 15 years, according to a report by the Department for Transport.
The same report also suggests Coventry has the fastest rising levels of congestion due to population and economic growth, with associated air quality issues, a council statement states.
Coun Duggins said: “I’m delighted that we are getting this trial underway and that we have been able to agree it with bus operators.
“As a bus user I know how important public transport is. But I also know how frustrating it can be to be stuck in a queue with an empty lane next to you.
“We want to keep traffic moving around the city for everyone. So, we’re going to suspend buses and monitor whether traffic flow improves.
“We’ll also be checking bus times to see whether the changes have an impact on journey times.
Coventry has 22 bus lanes totalling 8km in length. There are also bus priority measures at nine signalised junctions. All bus lanes in Coventry operate 24 hours a day.
Councillor Jayne Innes, cabinet member for city services, said: “We’ve got lots of very good data for car and bus journey times so this trial will be really interesting.
