technologies to disrupt the educational process," he said. Seymour Middle School sixth grader Emily Curina is a wireless kid -- she has an iPod, a cell phone (last month she sent 450 text messages from it) and she said she prefers to read her textbooks online. Emily's social studies teacher, Michael Oberdick, is similarly equipped. Formerly a technology teacher, Oberdick's classroom is a digital center. Instead of a blackboard, he has an interactive Smartboard, which links to his computer and allows students to download notes from the class Web page. Instead of letters home to parents, he has a class podcast, where students like Emily can record online audio dispatches to update parents on class lessons. Most students don't take hard copy textbooks home, preferring to use the interactiv...
Oneida By virtue of his victory last fall at the U.S. Senior Amateur Championship, Mark Bemowski was eligible to play this week in the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship. Instead, the 58-year-old Mukwonago resident decided to try for his sixth Wisconsin State Amateur title. He definitely made the right decision.
Todd Leff's original plan after he stepped down as CEO of the AAMCO transmission and auto repair franchise chain was to retire and play a lot of golf. "That lasted about three months," he says. Instead of spending his time relaxing on the links, he decided to go back to work helping to build a new chain that wants to market mass relaxation. Massage for the masses is the mantra at Hand & Stone, a chain of massage and facial spas that offers 50-minute massages for $49.95 to its members.
There were plenty of Saturday mornings when Traci Bodner had her own agenda. I was lazy, wanting to watch TV and cartoons," said Traci, a North Augusta High School senior who now is glad her father made her hit the links instead of becoming a couch potato.
A massive volcanic plume covering most of Europe forced President Obama to cancel a Sunday trip to Poland to attend the funeral of the nation's president. But the last-minute change left an opening in his schedule, so the president headed to the links for a round of golf instead. On a cool but sun-drenched day, the president and three golfing companions headed to Andrews Air Force Base to play 18 holes. It is the 32nd time Mr. Obama has played golf since taking office Jan. 20, 2009, according to CBS Radio's Mark Knoller.
[Laura Dunn] doesn't delight in Bradley's fall, though it's too delicious a sight to be ignored that he dwells, alone and destroyed, in an honestto-God castle. Instead she links his need for digging up the land to the manifest destiny rooted so deep in the American subconscious. Director Laura Dunn doesn't entirely avoid joining An Inconvenient Truth, Manufactured Landscapes and The 1Hh Hour* in harrumphing over the blithe destruction of natural resources. She's particularly fond of cueing up either Sigur Ros or the way overplayed Estonian minimalist composer Arvo Part as shortcuts to conveying forlorn contemplation.

A model of the BFH payments system consistent with simple textbook macroeceonomics is presented. The system, introduced by Robert L. Greenfield and Leland B. Yeager in 'A Laissez-Faire Approach to Monetary Stability,' dispenses with base money and instead links the means of payment to a nearly comprehensive bundle of goods and services through indirect convertibility. It is alleged to be inflation and recession-free.
