difference…and the Compassion to maintain an imaginative empathy that reaches beyond one’s own immediate surroundings…” (Strand, 2006, p. 5) The steps we take may seem humble, as in mindful practice, but as Makiguchi tells us, it is in the creation of value and human fulfillment that can touch one life. That one life can touch many. In the case of a teacher whose aim is human fulfillment, the youth s/he teaches can lead the way towards a future of hope. This is what was bequeathed us: This earth the beloved left And, leaving, Left to us. No other world But this one: Willows and the river And the factory With its black smokestacks. No other shore, only this bank On which the living gather. No meaning but what we find here. No purpose but what we make. That, and the beloved's clear instructions: Turn me into song; sing me awake. - Gregory Orr References Dewey, J. The Child and the Curriculum. Martino Fine Books: NY. 2011/1902. Hansen, David. Ed.

Office Listings – Getting the Data View Looking Right The Office Listings was implemented a Data View, customized through SharePoint Designer. There are several benefits to using the data view including: Data source options such as SharePoint lists, web services, databases or XML Filtering, grouping and paging of data Viewing of individual items or multiple items in table format Part 1 – Creating the List The office listings consisted of about 200 records. We decided to store the office listings information in a SharePoint list. This provides easy editing by the content editors and is the least work for a developer. Beyond the standard fields such as address and phone number, we included a Boolean “Show” field that allowed content editors to toggle whether a specific offices contact details were displayed. Part 2 – Getting the Grouping Right In the Data View we took advantage of the grouping and filtering options. A filter was applied to only show records that had “Show” set to true, and grouping was applied to the Region and Country options to create the following effect: Figure: There are two levels of grouping – Region and Country Part 3 – Getting the Anchor Tags Right The final requirement that had to be satisfied was the addition of anchor tags to regions, countries and individual offices. The Data View web part embeds the XSL style sheets into the web part so this could be directly manipulated to create anchor tags around each element. To apply this to the two group headers (region and country), find the following text for each group header tag e.g. <xsl:template Then add the following code within the first <td> tag of the group header: <a> <xsl:attribute name="name"> <xsl:value-of select="translate(normalize-space($alinkRegion), ' ','')" /> </xsl:attribute> </a> XSLT functions “translate” and “normalize-space” were used to manipulate the names of the offices, countries and regions.

Maker Faire Guide What can you do with what you know? As a maker, it is your job to take a concept and turn it into a real prototype. This involves exploration, sharing ideas with others, choosing and defining a project, planning, executing and refining your plan, and displaying your final project at the Bartlett City Schools Engineering Fair. Your Maker Project is all about turning your ideas into action, creating a “THING,” and sharing your “THING” with others! Getting Started… Brainstorming Have lots of Dr. Linus Pauling famously said that the best way to have good ideas is to have LOTS of ideas. That is, create a list of as many ideas as you can, then start focusing on the ones that appear promising. Eventually, you’ll winnow the list down to the good ones. Don’t be surprised if only a fraction of your initial ideas turn out to be good. That’s normal. (Makerspace Playbook) Here are some websites for Makers to help with brainstorming: Community Science Workshop Network DIY Howtoons Instructables Make: Projects Maker Camp The Maker Ed.

Season of Creation Theme Service Creation and Creativity by Rod Sykes You Will Need worship leader/preacher two readers three further voices for “Doc Brown’s Museum of Invention” done in Reader’s Theatre format, or actors if you choose to do it in skit format: Doc Brown Marty McFly Jennifer, Marty’s fiancée props: white lab coat, large Bible Gathering Announcements, etc. Explanation of the Service (And teaching of the congregational sung response if the sung Eucharist option is chosen) Worship leader: Most of today’s service of worship is a celebration of the creation and the creativity of our Creator. Through dialogues, reflections, and short vignettes, we will explore the resonance between God’s infinite creativity and our human imagination. Joining me in the service will be a Bible reader, a speaker who represents the scientific perspective, and three characters from the much beloved movie, Back to the Future: Doc Brown, Marty McFly, and Marty’s girlfriend Jennifer. (Possible location of Children’s Moment: Introduce a painting or drawing that one of the children has prepared beforehand that represents people dancing or doing some other artistic activity. Discuss with the children some of the other ways people engage in play that also requires work, since that’s what the creative arts involve. Lead into the idea that when God made the world God worked hard, but it was so much fun that it felt like play. For an alternative Children’s Moment, see page 10.) Creation and Creativity Choral Introit “Before the Earth Had Yet Begun,” verse 1 (Voices United 301) and/or Call to Worship When insight floods a human mind, when a solution arises in a vexed heart, when the light bulb goes on,
Opening Hymn “This Is God’s Wondrous World” (VU 296) “Creator God You Gave Us Life” (MV 27) Prayer of Confession We confess to you, Sacred Creator, that we have not always taken care of our environment. We are sorry for the ways we’ve abused it: wasting it, hoarding it, destroying it, taking it for granted. Forgive our foolish ways. (A moment of silence for private confession) For these and all our foolish ways, we pray, forgive us, loving God. Guide us to work diligently with our beloved Earth. With faith and assurance may we find ourselves in new relationships with all of your Creation. Amen. Assurance of Pardon God is always willing and ready to forgive us and to guide us. As we strive to live in harmony with the Holy Spirit, our daily work and play yield abundant fruit for all. We are forgiven. Thanks be to God! Amen. Children’s Time This is an active children’s time. Invite the children to pretend they are: flowers, birds, trees, the sun, stars, and grass. For each invitation and as they move and dance around, have them sing “Halle Halle Halle” or an appropriate similar refrain. Then chat with the children about being those parts of creation, e.g., What would it be like to be a flower? What would a flower like? What would a flower not like? End with a brief prayer of thanks for the challenge God gives each of us to have compassion and love for all creation and to work hard to help other people feel that way.

The world's tallest building Burj Khalifa is a mammoth skyscraper and magnificent centerpiece of Dubai standing at 828.9 metres high. Construction began on the 160-floor building in 2004 with its doors opening six years later in 2010. St Basil’s Cathedral, Moscow This candy coloured cathedral is Moscow's most visited tourist attraction. The famous landmark, shaped to resemble the flame of a bonfire rising into the sky, is located just outside the Kremlin gates and marks the geometric centre of the city. Built between 1554 and 1560, the cathedral was erected during the reign of Ivan IV (Ivan the Terrible). Hagia Sophia, Istanbul Sophia is a architectural masterpiece. A perfect example of Byzantine architecture, Hagia Sophia is located in Istanbul, Turkey. The building was built for the first time by the emperor Constantine the Great (306-337). However, due to many factors, including being burned down in riots and destroyed in earthquakes, the ancient cathedral has been rebuilt many times since. Despite this, Hagia Sophia is widely recognised as one of the great buildings of the world. The building also features in the opening scenes of the Bond film, Skyfall.
