Response: Don't Leave English Language Learners 'In The Cold' - Classroom Q&A With Larry Ferlazzo - Education Week Teacher
Response: Don't Leave English Language Learners 'In The Cold'
By Larry Ferlazzo on June 12, 2015 12:17 PM
(This is the first post in a two-part series responding to the question)
With everything that our colleagues have to deal with, it's understandable that some would try to avoid yet another challenge.  I'm lucky to work at a school where there is an institutional commitment to support English Language Learners (see The Positive Impact Of English Language Learners At An Urban School).  Many others, however, are not as fortunate.
Today, educators Sonia Nieto, Alicia López, Diane Staehr Fenner, Sydney Snyder, Katie Brown, Judie Haynes, and Virginia Rojas share their suggestions on how we can encourage our colleagues to face this challenge "face-on."  You can also listen to two short BAM! Radio shows I did on this topic.  In the first, Sonia and Alicia share ideas on how teachers can support other teachers; while, in the second, Diane, Sydney and special guest Jennifer Connors discuss how administrators can best provide support to teachers in the classroom.

Response From Sonia Nieto & Alicia López
Alicia López is an ELL teacher at Amherst Regional Middle School in Amherst, Massachusetts. Previously, she was a Spanish teacher at the same school and a French teacher at private schools in New York City. She is the Co-Director of the Western Massachusetts Writing Project Summer Institute. Sonia Nieto is Professor Emerita of Language, Literacy, and Culture, College of Education, at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. She has written widely on issues of culture, language, and learning. She is also the very proud mother of Alicia López:
Sonia: This is such an important question concerning a common problem faced by ELL teachers, so thank you for giving us the opportunity to respond. It's an understandable dilemma: every educator - whether ELL, Special Ed, classroom teacher, or guidance counselor - has so much to do that it's hard to keep up with everything. But as Alicia says below, it's your responsibility as the ELL teacher to advocate for your students; often, you're the only one with the information, knowledge, and expertise to help them.
Alicia responds below with the perspective of a teacher; I'll do so with the perspective of a teacher educator who looks at broader issues of institutional structures and barriers. ELL and children with special needs are often left in the cold when decisions are made concerning the education of "mainstream" students. This explains why they're often overlooked, and although it may be unintentional, the results are nevertheless detrimental for ELL students. Given this reality, you might take it upon yourself to advocate more forcefully with your principal and other decision makers in your school about steps to increase the time you have for collaborating with colleagues. Can you be given time during all-school meetings, for example, to share some of your concerns and resources with your colleagues? You might also offer to do a workshop for your colleagues on ELL issues. You'd be surprised how many of them simply don't know what the issues are. When included in these discussions, they are often grateful for the information and resources. Likewise, you might want to share with your colleagues what you learn at conferences and meetings you attend about ELL students. Whatever you do, know that your students and their families will benefit from your concern and advocacy.
Alicia: I completely understand your challenge. I have the same frustrations about finding the time to help my colleagues modify the work they do with their students. What may seem commonsense to me in terms of adjusting the curriculum for my students is not so commonsense for my colleagues, well meaning as they may be. Finding ways to collaborate with colleagues is even more difficult if you do not have the complete support of your administrators.
I have tried a few different methods. Like you, I disseminate information at the beginning of the year about levels and students. I also make a sheet of ELL tips for teachers, which of course work for many students who are not ELL. I offer to meet with teachers during their team meetings, and if there is a conflict, I arrange for coverage of my class. If it doesn't happen too often, my administrators are supportive.
This year, I plan to try something a little different: I will hand out a one-sheet reference page about each ELL student for their teachers. On the sheet, I will include information about the student's family, the ELL level, interpreter's name, and any other pertinent information. I learned this tip from Frances Ortíz, a fellow ELL teacher who works in Greenfield, MA, in a Western Massachusetts Writing Project activity. I hope that if teachers have a handy page to look at, it will help them better understand and reach their ELL students.
Also, sometimes we have to be overbearing pests! Our students need us to advocate for them. Any feelings I have about being too annoying are canceled out when I think of them and their needs.
Response From Diane Staehr Fenner & Sydney Snyder
Dr. Sydney Snyder is a Research Associate at DSF Consulting, a small business based in the Washington, DC area that provides professional development and technical assistance around ELs for districts, states, and organizations. She was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Guinea, West Africa and was an ESOL teacher in Falls Church, VA. Dr. Diane Staehr Fenner is President of DSF Consulting. She is a former EFL teacher and ESOL teacher in Fairfax County, VA. She is the author of Advocating for English Learners: A Guide for Educators and a weekly blog on the Common Core and ELs on Colorín Colorado:
We find that ESL teachers we work with on developing reconceptualized collaboration frameworks often run into similar dilemmas. We agree that ESL teachers want to ensure ELLs are given the best education possible, but they often encounter challenges collaborating with content teachers - especially if there is only ESL teacher (or less!) in the building. Here are some strategies ESL teachers can use to work with their colleagues and principal when there are time constraints:
Find allies who are on board with working with ELLs - perhaps team or grade level leaders who you can work closely with; share the responsibility for working with ELLs with them.
Work with these allies to create ELL-friendly materials for upcoming curricular units; make sure that these units are easily accessible to ELLs. Content teachers are more likely to support ELLs if materials are already developed and available. Also, content teachers may be more responsive if you have materials that essentially make their life easier.
For example, you can develop more general templates and checklists that teachers across grade levels and content areas can use to scaffold their own materials for ELLs. make sure that all materials developed are shared with others.
Talk with your allies and other teachers to determine the biggest obstacles that are standing in the way of supporting ELLs. Then, work with your administrators to prioritize and set goals. Make sure your principal is aware of all the work you're doing!
If possible, work with an administrator to alter your schedule so that you can get into more classrooms and model strategies directly. You can also work with allies to have them model strategies with other teachers. In adjusting your schedule, also look for opportunities to join team planning meetings if possible (another collaborative opportunity).
Develop talking points that you can use when working with classroom teachers and administrators - show them you value their expertise, and consider how to make instructional recommendations in a way that encourages teachers to share their concerns and frustrations yet leaves space for you to make suggestions in non-judgmental ways.
Showcase ELL achievement and success as a way of highlighting the strengths of ELLs and the value that they add to the school community.
Finally, in your discussions with your administrators, highlight that providing ELLs access to materials is not optional, but it is their legal right, and ELL strategies can benefit other students as well.
Response From Katie Brown
Katie Brown is an ELL Specialist, Instructional Coach, and the 2014 Washington State Teacher of the Year. She currently works at Shuksan Middle School in Bellingham, Washington where she supports students, families and teachers. You can access more resources from Katie on her website:
One way ELL teachers can work with administrators and colleagues to better meet the needs of ELLs is to identify ways to improve consistency for students.
Many ELLs (and all students for that matter) often struggle in school because their day revolves around the sound of a bell dictating when and what they are expected to learn. In the secondary grades, students may take up to seven classes in one day. It makes it all the more difficult when each class has different procedures, different ways of taking notes, different ways of annotating text, different levels of language support, and different expectations for participation.
I'm not saying that every class needs to run the same, but it would benefit ELLs tremendously if there were some common attributes found every day, in every class, that we know support language development.
For example, what if everyone agreed that daily objectives will be presented visually and verbally for students? What if a visual or picture is always used when presenting new vocabulary? What if a graphic organizer is always available for students to use when writing? What if teachers agreed on the symbols they will use to teach students how to annotate text (does circling a word mean the student doesn't know the word, or that the word is important?). What if every class used the same location in a planner to write down homework?
A productive task would be for administrators to work with ELL teachers and staff to identify three to four essential attributes of a classroom experience and/or lesson that would provide consistency for ELLs to better meet their language needs. ELL teachers and colleagues could be tasked with providing examples and modeling these attributes, but administrators would need to commit to providing the professional learning time for this work to take place.
If everyone is willing to work as a team to improve consistency, ALL students will benefit.
Judie Haynes taught ESL for 28 years. She is the co-author and author of seven books, the most recent being The Essential Guide for Educating Beginning English Learners (2012):
A good relationship between ESL and classroom teachers is important to the academic success of English language learners. In 1990, I received a grant from the NJ Department of Education to provide information to classroom teachers about strategies for teaching ELLs. Despite the support from my administrators and the special materials that the grant allowed me to develop, it took several years of building relationships with classroom teachers for the program to succeed. So don't give up. Building professional relationships with colleagues may take some time.
Have you thought about approaching your principal to change the model you are using to deliver instruction to your English language learners (ELLs)? Co-teaching is an excellent way to develop a good relationship with a classroom or content area teacher and it really benefits your students. To me, an ideal ESL schedule is a mix between co-teaching and pull-out. (I think beginning ELLs really need the pull-out in addition to the support in the content area class.)
In a good co-teaching model, the ESL and classroom teacher plan a unit of instruction together.
In fact, time for co-teachers to meet and plan their lessons is critical to the success of a collaboration (Honigsfeld & Dove, 2010). The classroom teacher teaches the content area information to the whole class and the ESL teacher focuses on how English language learners will communicate in the language of content. Together the two teachers are lowering the student-teacher ratio and providing differentiated instruction in a manner that is not possible for one teacher. The best part is that ELLs are not isolated from the rest of the class and are included in the same content instruction as their English-speaking peers.
I suggest reading Collaboration and Co-Teaching for English Learners by Andrea Honigsfeld and Maria Dove and The Essential Guide for Educating Beginning English Learners by Debbie Zacarian and Judie Haynes.
Most ESL teachers at some point in our careers recall being 'the only' ESL teacher as well as the double-agent life of relentless advocate for English learners vs. overbearing nuisance to colleagues. The stark realization that the beginning-of-the school-year information session does not do much to change the struggles of English learners in their classrooms adds to our frustration until as you are doing here we ask ourselves, "Is there a better way to cultivate classroom teachers' capacities for ESL responsive instruction?"   Even as an ESL consultant, we soon appreciate that the one-shot professional development training may not sustain the day-to-day instructional mindsets needed to support English learners.
One powerful alternative for growing a 'coalition of the willing' is to attend a few grade-level or subject-area team meetings for the purpose of providing strategies for specific lessons. For example, a middle school science team sent an informational article on the difference between LED vs. incandescent lighting, requesting specific ways in which they could include their English learners. I went to the meeting fortified with ESL scaffolding tools: (1) translations and visual icons for the technical vocabulary, (2) YouTube science explanations to build background information, and (2) a compare and contrast graphic organizer with progressive sentence starters. Two differentiation strategies were planned: expert and home jigsaw groups for reading and discussing sections of the material and a choice of assessment tasks, including an infographic and oral explanation, a newscast, or a debate. The science teachers used all and were sold on the value of ESL strategies.
As a direct outgrowth of these meetings, the Science teachers organized our thinking on a digital spreadsheet of ESL tools: scaffolding strategies to build background knowledge and make cultural connections; literacy strategies to extend academic language development; and differentiation strategies to access content. Another benefit was now our online discussions focus on lingering questions they collectively generate. Some of these questions derive from research and have policy implications; for example, the difference between subtractive vs. additive bilingualism. Others require us to unravel instructional approaches based on research rather than assumptions such as the distinctions between scaffolding and modifying or modification and differentiation.
Perhaps the lesson to be learned is that a job-embedded coaching model may enable a sole ESL teacher to share the knowledge and skills she or he possesses as a part of daily life throughout a school not as an event but as a way of daily instructional life in all classrooms.
Thanks to Sonia, Alicia, Diane, Sydney, Katie, Judie and Virginia for their contributions!


Dr. James Masterson of the Section of Radiology sought permission from the General Council to call their Registrar’s Prize Medal the “Sylvester Boland” medal in February 1990. Sylvester J. Boland was a very distinguished person in the field of radiology and the Academy President Professor John W. Dundee believedAcademy was a good thing. Council agreed to Dr. Masterson’s request.
The search for biliary calculi and the study of the liver and biliary tract have attracted the attention of radiologists from the earliest days of radiology. Their efforts, however, were attended by little success. Stones were occasionally seen, but the difficulty of differentiating between biliary and renal calculi discouraged these workers, and up to 1910 the finding of a shadow in the gall-bladder region was regarded as of purely academic interest. A paper dealing with the matter of adhesions and their effects in the right upper abdominal quadrant when observed by means of the opaque meal, published in 1910 by Schürmaycr, drew attention to the value of the indirect signs of gall-bladder pathology and gave new life to its study. He was quickly followed by others working along these lines, and Cole, Pfahler, Knox, etc.–aided by improved technique, the discovery of the Potter-Bucky diaphragm, double-coated films and intensifying screens–added greatly to the results in x-ray examination in diseases of the gall bladder. In 1923 Röntgen-ray examination of the gall bladder by ordinary methods had reached a high degree of efficiency. Knowledge, however, was still very limited, and by these methods only chronic disease of the gall bladder or its results could be revealed.
In 1924 Graham and Cole published a preliminary report on a ” New Method Utilising Intravenous Injection of Tetrabromphenolphthalein”. This embodied an entirely new principle, and from its application have resulted our present technique and knowledge. Numerous modifications have, of course, been introduced, such as the oral method of administering the dye advocated by Meenes and Robinson, the use of the fat meal suggested by Whitaker, the intensive method advocated by Stewart and lllich and its modification suggested by Kerley, but the same preparation of the dye and the same essential principle are in use to-day, thirteen years after ‘having been first described by Graham and Cole.
Radiographic examination of the female pelvis has been engaging the attention of many workers for the past twenty years. Several accurate and satisfactory methods of measuring the various diameters of the pelvis have been devised, those of Thomas, Roberts and Rowden being the best known; all are in general use. It has, however, always been recognised among obstetricians that reliance upon measurements alone as a means of forecasting the course of a particular labour was unreliable and that other factors entered into the problem. Even the most careful clinical examination has failed on occasion to reveal such factors and the obstetrician has sometimes been faced with an unexpectedly difficult delivery. In a series of communications published from 1932 onwards, Caldwell and his co-workers outlined the results of their investigations by pelvic radiography and the influence of those variations on the mechanism of labour; their work has thrown new light on the problem. They have grouped the various types on the basis of the shape of the inlet. Intermediate types are recognised, and it has been pointed out that a single unfavourable characteristic of one type is occasionally found in association with another type. They suggested that the pelvis should be studied as a whole in order to arrive at an accurate forecast of labour, and further that x-ray studies of the pelvis should be devoted to this end, and not to simple measurement of a few diameters as had been the practice up to that time. Their studies into the mechanism of labour observed in association with the various types of pelvis and their suggestions as to the best methods of dealing with them are also an entirely new concept.

Cookery, King of Comedy, Shaolin Soccer, and of course, this film. I found the early films with Stephen talking in a cartoonish "comedic" voice annoying.
The ones where he has more creative control tend to have him speaking in a more natural, and more deadpan voice and those films tend to carry deeper messages than just a mindless comedy. Seriously, some scenes are moving.
The one knock I do have is Gong Li, whose talents seem wasted in the film. No doubt she looks great in the film, but she's not given much to do and seems rather wooden as if she did not enjoy herself in the movie. Knowing Gong's talent, it felt strange to see her character just be a "vase" love interest and nothing more.
I guess you don't want to have anyone upstage Stephen but in that case why not cast a starlet with a less impressive resume than Gong?

Like Reply </s> Kaetlyn's Thoughts...We've had a busy, busy week of playing and learning new things. I started playing with my chair in our family room, which is really fun because I can climb on it, then climb on other things (which doesn't make my Mommy really happy!) Also, we've been trying some new things at bathtime - I get to sit under a really cool water feature in our shower to get my hair nice and clean...
I have also gotten to enjoy a post-bathtime ritual where I get to have my hair blown dry...it's like a salon every night! Daddy decided it was better for me not to go to bed with a wet head, as we head into the fall/winter season, so I get treated to a salon experience every night! It's really fun, as I love the air on my face and I also love to look at myself in the mirror (who doesn't, really!?) :)
This past week, I've also gotten pretty into watching Sesame Street...I enjoy it a LOT. I really like Elmo and Big Bird - they are funny!

The most recent iteration of Inductiv (aka HoloClean) was founded by Ihab Ilyas and Theodoros Rekatsinas in 2019, and had between 3 and 10 employees when acquired here in May of 2020. Inductiv is one of several companies acquired in the first half of the year 2020 by Apple.
UPDATE: According to The Motley Fool, Inductiv employees now working with Apple are working under John Giannandrea. Apple’s Giannandrea is executive in charge of machine learning and AI strategy for the company.
UPDATE 2: Inductiv was also founded by . Apple previously acquired a very similar company from Professor Re back in May of 2017. That company was Lattice Data, a group focused on machine learning and processing “dark data” – unorganized images, text, and data.
We wouldn’t be shocked to find another one of Professor Re’s associated groups get acquired in the future. We’re looking at you, SambaNova, and Snorkel. Snorkel works with machine learning and systems with collaborations with Google ads, Gmail, and Apple!
Christopher Re worked on a bit of research published in September of 2019 called “Ots.” Overton was authored by Christopher Re, Feng Niu, Pallavi Gudipati, and Charles Srisuwananukorn, all four of whom are listed there with “Apple” as their primary associated group.
In Acknowledgements, Re (and the team) thanked “many teams in Siri Search, Knowledge, and Platform, and Turi for support and feedback.” Apple previously acquired Machine Learning startup Turi to improve Siri back in the year 2016.


This is fascinating stuff and I just have to present it. It seems that a team of UK scientists have discovered a natural process that could delay, or even end, the threat of global warming. This is absolutely amazing but they are offering some convincing findings in their research. Imagine such a thing; an end to global warming. Just like that.


The 3-1 victory against England was Virat Kohli‘s 10th series win in a row at home as India captain. It extended India’s dominance at home to 13 straight series wins with their last home defeat coming against Alastair Cook’s England in 2012.
The manner in which India dominated England, especially in the last three Tests – they won the pink-ball ball Test in two days and the fourth Test in three days – no doubt pleased Kohli. According to him, the biggest strength India showed was their “comeback” after losing the series opener in Chennai by massive margin of 227 runs. Following are the key men and points Kohli pointed out during the presentation that played a key role in India winning the series and booking a berth in the World Test Championship final.
“Ashw
“ So, yeah, it was an outstanding innings.
“H.”
“–l.
“Our bench strength has been as strong as it has ever been. That’s .
“It is up to the individuals as well, like taking the situation on, like Rishabh and Washy did with that game-changing partnership and then Axar as well – a 100-run partnership. They: ‘okay, I’m’ That is what exactly what they have done.”
On India’s 13-series winning streak at home
“You obviously are happy when you are winning so many series but there are always things to improve. Like, after the first game in Chennai, we had to pick up our body language. We spoke about the fact that nothing is a given whether you are playing at home or away. And that is exactly what our mindset is. I know in the future as well we’ll have hiccups, we’ll have a few things that will be a concern, but we will have to keep ironing them out and that’s been the hallmark of our team.”

I love my automatic temperature controllers. Stress and worry-free overnight cooks, and more time with guests instead of manning the pit, I'm sure you'd love one too. Here are seven of the best.
There’s a philosophy out there about controlling the controllable. You see this a lot in self-help books and coaches’ speeches – usually after a loss.
I suppose the meaning is self-explanatory, but in case it’s not, it’s about achieving your goals by managing variables.
When it comes to smoking, there are more variables than you can shake a tomahawk steak at. The more of them we can control, the more likely it is we’ll be eating delicious food at the end of the session.
Probably the two most important variables are time and temperature. In this article, you’ll learn how to control the latter with an automatic temperature controller.
Things kick off with a review of the seven best barbecue temperature controllers on the market. You’ll learn the specs, pros and cons, and more for each model covered. Plus, there’s a section on what they do and why you might want one and what features to look for when buying.
Here’s where you take control of your smoking destiny by choosing to keep reading.
1.5 Is This the Controller for You?
8 What is a BBQ Temperature Controller?
9 How Do Barbecue Temperature Controllers Work?
11.10 Standalone or Must be Wi-Fi Connected?
Owning a Flame Boss 500 is kinda like owning a Minion, without the giant goggles.
It’s a small, useful personal assistant that takes care of menial tasks so I don’t have to, freeing me up to chat with guests and generally be the pitmaster I want to be.
Flame Boss calls this cool gadget “cruise control for your smoker.” Nailed it.
The main unit is simple to use, featuring four clearly labeled buttons and a bright, easy-to-read screen. The LCD can display the current temperature readings of all four probes at once, allowing you to take everything in at a glance.
The pint-sized blower packs all the power needed to feed oxygen, fire’s true fuel, to the coals in your smoker.
It looks like a miniature hairdryer, but I don’t recommend it for that job. It measures about 5″ x 3″ x 1.5″ – it’s noticeable but never obtrusive. It’s a variable-speed unit, so it only blows as hard or as soft as necessary.
The Flame Boss 500 takes our top spot as choice for the best bbq temperature controller. It is easy to use. It’s also highly accurate, and that’s vital to a successful smoke!
Being able to monitor the smoker remotely is fantastic, and I love getting alerts on my phone.
The mobile app is intuitive, and I can save my smoking information to my account for review at a later time.
It would be nice if it came with three meat probes in the box instead of one. But, if you only ever smoke one item at a time, you might resent the extra cost for unneeded gear.
There’s no protective case included or available, so be careful with your base unit.
Is This the Controller for You?
If you own almost any drum, cabinet, bullet, offset smoker, or kamado-style smoker, the flame boss 500 is compatible and will work flawlessly. Just make sure you buy the right version, as there are two with different fixings.
Also, if you have long smoking sessions regularly or barbecue when the weather isn’t conducive to staying outside for long, then this will be a nice addition to your BBQ tool kit.
It’s also for you if you love to track your smoking sessions for future reference, as all details of your cooks will be saved on Flame Boss servers for future reference.
Also, a different model might suit you better if you don’t have Wi-Fi available at your smoker. There is a direct connection mode for wireless hook-up directly to your smart device, but you won’t get the benefits of connecting through the Flame Boss server.
I’ve been using this controller on multiple smokers for quite a while, and I love it. It’s simple but fully-featured, reliable, and accurate.
If you enjoy smoking and you do it frequently, it’s well worth the investment. It pays for itself in the time freed up and the meat that isn’t accidentally ruined.
How to control your smoker with confidence: start with one of the best remote digital smoker thermometers on the market and add a small-but-mighty variable-speed blower.
Download the deep yet easy to understand app, and keep tabs on your smoker from your smartphone (are there dumbphones?) via Bluetooth or the cloud through Wi-Fi.
You can even use the app to record and save data generated during your smoke session to refer to later. This is perfect for beginners, so you never have to rack your brain trying to remember what worked and what didn’t.
The Fireboard FBX11 has a temperature range of 784F, is exceptionally accurate, and supports up to six temperature probes.
The fan unit uses a spring-loaded clamp to keep it securely attached to your smoker, and the silicone gasket provides an air-tight seal on most units.
Controller unit weight: 4.6 oz.
The curved food probe is easy to insert into and remove from any piece of meat, and with a full six feet of cable, you’ll have no trouble finding a convenient place to set up your base station.
There are just two buttons on the base, keeping operation simple.
No Wi-Fi? No problem – the Bluetooth connection is good for up to 100 feet.
For some reason, the fan does not come with the Fireboard Drive Fan Control Cable needed to connect the base unit to the blower.
It feels like a money grab, but I suppose keeping all the components separate allows for complete customization of the Fireboard system.
And, as one reviewer commented: “Warning! Allows you to do more chores!” Don’t say you weren’t told.
This is a good choice if You don’t have Wi-Fi coverage where your smoker is, but you want to monitor your cook wirelessly.
It’s also good if you have a large smoker and want to monitor many items at once, as it’s the only thermometer I know of that can connect up to 6 probes!
Other reasons you might choose this model are if You carry a phone at all times and don’t want to carry a remote monitor, too.
And if you do not have a power outlet, or indeed sometimes you lose power, then you could use this product with a battery back-up.
Another model might suit you better if you don’t own a smartphone, because not much info is displayed on the built-in LCD.
While it would be nice to get a package deal on all these components, it’s all worth every penny in the end.
The robust app and the reliable functionality of the devices make it a worthwhile investment for serious smokers and those who want to become so.
You’d better be pretty wise if you call yourself the “guru” of anything! Fortunately, this product lives up to its billing.
Once you look past the surface (the big logo and cheap-looking d-pad don’t instill confidence out of the box), you’ll discover that this temperature controller really knows its stuff.
Capable of monitoring the ambient temperature and the internal temperature of up to three food items, the CyberQ Cloud is a wireless wonder.
As the name implies, you can connect to your home Wi-Fi set up to monitor your smokertablet. Additionally, the base unit can be its own hotspot and broadcast directly to your phone without local Wi-Fi.
It’s pretty smart, too: it knows if the lid is open for too long and adjusts accordingly, it can text or email you alerts, and you can set it to ramp down the temperature to avoid blowing past the target and overcooking your food.
If you’re really into perfecting your technique (and statistics), you’ll love the real-time monitoring and the ability to save notes accessed directly from the temperature graph.
There may be no smoker on the market the CyberQ Cloud can’t be fit to, and it’s great that there are two blowers to choose from, saving you from being under- or overpowered.
It’s not difficult to set up, and using voice commands should be standard in the 21st century.
If you’re not technically inclined, manually configuring your IP can be a nightmare – or at least a learning process.
The manual damper may claim to assist with “fine-tuning,” but it’s one more thing you have to get hands-on with. Plus, it seems to need regular cleaning to keep it from sticking open (or closed).
This controller is for you if Wi-Fi is not always an option where you barbecue, if you have multiple smokers you wish to monitor, or you have a habit of missing alerts and overcooking your food.
Another controller would suit you better if you’re not comfortable with manual Wi-Fi settings. But other than this, there’s nothing much at all to complain about here.
Overall, this is a terrific product that offers a lot of value, especially for serious smokers.

Here’s one just for you kamado owners out there.
While some temperature controllers are definitely modifications, the Smobot is more of an enhancement.
Unlike many other systems, there is no blower unit with the Smobot. Instead, you replace the top vent mechanism on the lid of your kamado with the one included in the kit. The base unit tells the damper how much to open or close and when to control the airflow and hence the temperature inside.
Try and ignore the silly-looking logo on the main unit and concentrate on the functionality.
There are five buttons on the front to help you set your target temperature and timers. Once that’s done, Smobot takes over.
It has built-in Wi-Fi functionality, so you can monitor and adjust your cook through your local network via a cloud-based service (“mySmobot”), or natively in your phone via an Android or iOS app.
Born as a Kickstarter project, Smobot is a full-fledged company now and garnering rave reviews for its innovative product.
Interestingly, they solicit input from users for future improvements. For instance, in 2018, they added two alerts (grill and food temperature), and they’re working on more. They’ve asked for suggestions from Smobot owners, and anything they go with will be added via a firmware update over the web.
As the manufacturer suggests, this is a “natural” solution for temperature control. All it’s doing is what you’d do yourself, namely, adjust the damper to control the flow of air.
Installation is very easy; there’s no crouching and no fiddling with adaptors and seals.
Power consumption is minimal, and you could actually hook this up to a small battery pack for unplugged operation anywhere.
The grill and food probe lengths are about a foot shorter than most others on the market (4.9 feet), but this should still be enough for most users.
An option for more than 2 food probes would be nice, but 2 is better than 1.
If You own a kamado-style smoker with a top daisy-wheel vent, then this is a good fit. Literally.
This is also a good choice if you still to take control sometimes because Smobot can function as just a digital thermometer without controlling the temperature.
This also isn’t a product for you if You don’t have access to Wi-Fi or a smartphone.
The Smobot smoker temperature control system showcases some truly innovative thinking. It really is like having a robotic assistant.
Temperature graphs show smooth curves thanks to the gentle nature of the device; not having a sudden gust of air from a blower makes this system more like “normal” smoking, working with natural draw rather than forced air from a fan.
This controller takes an all-in-one approach to the problem of regulating barbecue temperatures.
How so? Well, the controller box has the fan built right in. You can even adjust the airflow manually by opening or closing the onboard daisy wheel. This makes swapping between different sized cookers much easier; open wide for a large unit, and close it down for a small one.
Notably absent are any buttons for programming temperatures and timers. Instead, you’ve got one small knob which you rotate back and forth until you’ve got it where you want it. Just push in on the knob to lock in your selection. Easy!
It’s not a bad looking unit, either, with the orange and yellow flame-like graphic. The plastic housing is quite durable, so don’t be afraid to take it on the road. In fact, with the optional 12V power cord for your vehicle, you could use it anywhere you go, including cottaging, RVing, or tailgating.
By the way, if you’re trying to think of an advantage to having the blower up at the controller and not near the base of the barbecue or on the ground, here it is: there’s little to no chance it’s going to pick up dirt and blow it into your food.
Consider that advantage on a windy day when leaves and dust are swirling about your yard – or a parking lot.
The dial makes setting the temperature easier than on perhaps any other unit I’ve seen.
The ability to effectively throttle the blower power with the damper gives you total control.
Having the “cheat sheet” affixed to the back of the main unit saves you from constantly referring to the manual.
The lack of any connectivity to a smart device will keep you closer to your smoker than you might always like.
Having a single-line display makes it a bit less user-friendly than some other units.
Having a rope to hang it with and not a stand is a bit weird, especially since it can’t hang closer than 2 inches from the smoker. Keep the plastic air hose away from heat, or you’ll melt itd prefer to monitor from your smartphone, if there’s nowhere logical to hang your controller, or you want to monitor more than one food item at a time.
This is a well-thought-out controller with many practical features.
There are a couple of minor issues that could have been addressed, but they are made up for by all the plusses.
The biggest plus of all has to be that dial – what an obvious but amazing innovation! If you have no need of or desire for Wi-Fi connectivity, give the Pitmaster IQ120 some serious thought.
If your life is on your phone, have I got the barbecue temperature controller for you!
This unit features no onboard display or buttons. Zero. Nada. And why should it? If you’re using your phone to keep an eye on your ‘cue, what do you need redundant features for? Now there is literally no reason to stay anywhere near your cooker.
This is a huge departure from the Flame Boss 500 and its fully-featured base control unit. Your pit probe and meat probe plug directly into the fan unit, and all the data they collect is sent to the app, which you can download for free for Android or iOS.
As you’d expect, the app features a variety of alarms, text notifications, and progress graphs. By the way, you’re not limited to your phone – it works equally well on a computer or tablet.
One remarkable bonus of the Flame Boss 400 is that it’s so easy to set up and connect to your Wi-Fi through the app, it can actually be done without sight. Now THAT is user-friendly!
Oh, and if you’re really into gadgets, you’ll appreciate the ability to control the Flame Boss 400 with your voice through a Google Home or Amazon Alexa device.
For a more in-depth look at this device, you can check out our Flame Boss 400 review, or keep reading for a summary of what you get, and it’s pros and cons.
It makes total sense to eliminate the onboard display and controls for most users.
Installation is very simple; for a kamado, you won’t even need tools.
Having just one unit keeps all your workspace clear, and you won’t have dangling cords or tubes in your way.
Based on Flame Boss’s own pictures, installation may be snug on some units.
Putting the probe and power ports on the bottom makes them tricky to get at when the unit is installed.
An option for more than one meat probe would be appreciated.
This controller is for you if you love to use your phone for everything, and you want an easy set-up and installation.
Another controller would suit you better if you don’t always carry a phone, or if your Wi-Fi is spotty or non-existent.
The simplicity of this single-unit controller makes it very appealing. While some may lament the lack of controls and display, those who are totally used to interacting with the world via their phones will love it. It’s another terrific product from an impressive company.
Flame Boss makes versions for kamados and for steel smokers and grills. Choose the one that’s right for your cooker.
Talk about power in the palm of your hand! The first thing I thought of when I saw the DigiQ DX3 was an old MP3 player – it’s that small. Don’t try plugging in your headphones, though.
What you can plug in are the power supply, fan, pit probe, and food probe. All four ports are at the bottom of the unit.
Across the front are four buttons in two pairs. Between the lot of them, you can control everything you need, including setting temperatures and times and monitoring the pit and food temps.
It’s not a bad looking unit, and you can choose between a black and a green front on an all-black housing.
It’s lightweight and won’t take up much room in your workspace.
One of the DigiQ’s best features is the optional Ramp Mode, something it shares with the CyberQ.
This is how it works: on a low’ n’ slow cook, when the food is 30F below the target temperature, the unit automatically starts ramping down the pit temperature. Doing so extends the cooking time, but it also greatly reduces the odds of shooting past your target doneness temperature because you weren’t paying attention.
What you do not get with this unit is any form of connectivity. There’s no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so put that phone away – you won’t need it.
The ramp mode is a great idea, especially for busy and/or inattentive people.
Audible alerts from the base unit will let you know what’s up, even if you’re not paying close attention.
Smart Cook settings change the operation of the fan based on the insulating properties of your cooker: There’s a setting for ceramic cookers and cabinets, one for insulated pits, and one for uninsulated and offset cookers.
If you’re not going to offer smart connectivity, you should at least provide a multi-line display.
The “universal bracket” is very strange – a simple kickstand attachment would do the same job much more easily.
This controller is for you if you have limited workspace, if you don’t always notice the first alarm and sometimes overcook your food, and if you do a lot of long, slow cooks.
It’s also a good choice if you own several different types of smoker as it can be used with each.
It’s also a good choice if you don’t own a smartphoneprefer all your info at a glance, or if you want to monitor/control your cook remotely.
If Wi-Fi and high-tech gadgets are not your thing, this might be the automatic barbecue temperature controller for you.
There’s definitely a place in the world for what is, in fact, a digital thermometer that not only reports the temperature, it adjusts it for you.
Considering the compact size, this micro-wonder does a full-size job.
If you own a smoker, or if you’ve been researching the topic because you think you might like to try it, you know that controlling the temperature is paramount to a successful smoke session.
You also know that can mean a lot of hands-on time with your smoker, checking temperatures and adjusting vents and dampers.
For some, that’s part of the fun. For others, it’s a barrier to the enjoyment of tasty food.
A smoker inside your smoker (and usually inside your meat, too) at all times. If the temperature strays above or below the target you’ve set, the device can adjust the temperature up or down without any effort from you.
How Do Barbecue Temperature Controllers Work?
A fire needs oxygen to burn. This is why you can put out one of those jar candles by putting on the lid; as soon as the remaining oxygen burns up, the flame dies.
When the temperature probes sense that the temperature is too low (based on the target you’ve programmed into the controller), the unit fires up a blower to force oxygen into the fire pit. Once the target is achieved, the blower either switches off or steps down to a lower flow rate to maintain the current temperature.
Using one of these devices can take a lot of the stress out of smoking, especially for a long session.
While a wireless digital thermometer will tell you if you need to make some adjustments to your smoker, an automatic controller will make the adjustments for you.
This frees you up to cook other food, entertain guests, run out to the store, go to work, or even go to sleep. In short, you can live your life while your food virtually cooks itself.
If you’re shopping for an automatic temperature controller,
Not every product works for every smoker! Some models only work on kamados, for example, while others may be brand-specific.
Be sure your smoker is on the compatibility list before you click that ‘purchase’ button.
Many models offer different versions to cover a variety of smokers. The device is the same, but the connection is switched out. Double-check you’re getting the right kit.
Life by the smoker can be harsh. There’s a lot of heat, exposure to the elements, and the potential for drops and spills.
Look for high-temperature probes, spill-resistant housing materials, and other features meant to extend the life of your product.
A good rule of thumb is if it looks cheap and the price is cheap, it’s probably cheaply made.
At a minimum, an automatic temperature controller will come with a pit temperature probe. The reading from this probe lets the unit know whether to turn on the fan or leave it off.
You may also wish to have one or more food temperature probes to measure the doneness of your meat.
If you like to smoke a variety of meats at the same time, you might want the option of multiple food probes to monitor everything at once. Of course, if you already own a good wireless thermometer, this perhaps isn’t a key factor.
If the controller unit is the brains of the operation, the fan is the muscle. It’s a moving part, and moving parts tend to cause the most problems. Look for one that isn’t made of flimsy materials to get the best performance.
You’ll also need to choose between variable speed fans and fans that are either on or off.
A fan that blows at either full power or nothing at all may over-fuel your charcoal, leading to bigger temperature swings.
Opt for variable speed for smoother curves on your temperature graph and power that adapts to the size of your smoker.
Of course, an open lid can spell disaster for a smoke session if it’s left undetected for too long.
Some models will recognize the situation based on temperature change and send an alert. There isn’t a model – yet – that will close the lid for you, but at least with this feature, you can go rectify the problem before it’s too late.
Taking the most accurate, detailed measurements in the world aren’t much use if no one reports them to you. Yes, it’s an automatic BBQ temperature controller, but you still want to know what’s going on, don’t you?
Most controllers have a variety of built-in alarms, some automatic, and some programmable. For example, you might want an alarm or alert when your meat or the fire pit hits the target temperature. Emergency alarms can include lid open notifications, and over-temperature or under-temperature alerts.
Alarms keep you apprised of how close to done you cook is, or if there are any problems you’ll need to attend to personally.
If you plan on using the base as your main source of information, you’ll want audible alarms. For you phone and computer users, email and text message alerts are the way to go.
It’s a simple fact of life and physics: everything has to go somewhere. How it goes there is yet another variable to think on before you buy.
There are models that require you to remove and replace the vent damper mechanism, which means you’ll need some basic tools. Others are self-securing with spring-loaded clamps.
You may be limited by the available models for your smoker, but try and choose a system that matches your handy-person comfort level.
Consider, too, where your smoker sits and how much clear space you have. Is there room for a blower unit attached directly to the side? Or would you be better off with a flexible hose running from a free-standing blower?
It seems like everything these days has Wi-Fi or Bluetooth built-in. Not to be left out of the connected revolution, many automatic barbecue temperature controllers offer this feature.
In theory, you could set your smoker going, head to the airport, and fly to another country, all the while keeping tabs on your brisket.
In reality, you’ll be able to untether yourself from your smoker to go inside and watch the game or head out to the store to stock up on wood chips and beer, without leaving your smoker unattended.
This is a great option for extended smoking sessions that last many hours.
An automatic barbecue temperature controller collects a lot of information. There are the temperature readings taken from the probe or probes, the target temperatures and timers you’ve set, and error data that might indicate a problem.
How would you like all this info communicated to you?
We’ve seen everything from units that present a lot of numbers on multiple lines simultaneously to models that have no onboard display at all. So which is the best choice?
If you expect to use a smartphone or other device as your primary interface with the controller, it may not matter to you so much the amount and the clarity of data displayed on the base unit.
On the other hand, if you plan on being more of a helicopter parent to your smoker (or you don’t own any appropriate electronics for remote monitoring), choose a display that’s easy to read and understand.
Standalone or Must be Wi-Fi Connected?
The decisions you make in this category will be based entirely on your preferences and needs.
Some automatic barbecue temperature controllers require Wi-Fi to function. Some require a phone or other device to connect to (and from there, likely access to the internet). Some function entirely as a standalone and offer no connectivity options at all. And, lastly, some offer a combination of options.
What you choose depends on whether you feel the need to monitor your smoker from a distance greater than a few feet. It will also depend on whether you own a smartphone or tablet, and what the Wi-Fi strength is where your smoker is, if there’s any at all.
The best choice may be for a device that offers options. If you can get some or all of the information and control you need from the base, that’s great to have, even if you can also do it all from your phone. Redundancy is never a bad thing. And, even if you don’t have the ability to connect right now, you may wish to future-proof yourself should that ever change.
Consider this one carefully.  On the other hand, you don’t want to pay for something you’ll never use.
If you love to smoke meat, you’re probably wondering how you ever survived without a controller to control the controllable.
Daft as that sentence sounds, the best bbq temperature controllers are a godsend for those who aren’t interested in messing with vents all day and babysitting a smoker.
With any luck, you’ll soon find yourself enjoying long smokes more than ever, and cooking meat with extra confidence.
If there’s more you’d like to know, or if you have comments or suggestions, jot them down and send them via the comment section below a good old email.

litigation with over code violations????
code violators
Don't be misled by NDN and the proponents of the new amended Immokalee Master Plan. This amended Master Plan benefits no one except the greedy rich landowners and developers. This plan would allow those who own thousands of acres of low value agricultural lands to become owners of thousands of acres of high value commercial lands. These land barrons would have the options to make hundreds of millions of dollars while the low and middle income residents and small property owners in Immokalee will be forced out, and be relocated to an unknown reservation designated by these land barrons in cahoot with Coyle, Coletta, and Fiala.
Just check out the Superintendent of Elections Website, and see how many real estate attorneys and land development companies donated to Coletta, Fiala, as well as Coyle when he was running for office last year. Furthermore, don't forget the Hideaway Beach episode. The Hideaway Beach residents in Marco Island contributed, in a couple of days, $10,000 to Coyle's campaign in return for his vote to approve the $1.4 million project to erect 6 erosion control structures to protect the private, no public access, 2 mile long Hideaway Beach.
Keep Henning because Henning's opponent Bill McDaniel is also a corrupt land owner/developer in Collier and Lee Counties. It is not surprising that Coyle and Coletta contributed to his election campaign. Check out the Superintendent of Elections Website.
Does the County really need more commercial lands in Immokalee? There are plenty of unoccupied residential and commercial lands in nearby Ave Maria.
As long as donations are legal, and they are; and donations are reported, and they are in this case, there is no problem here.
The fact is that all people give money to a candidate based on the fact that their candidate supports their beliefs or positions. Saying that its ok for one person and not for another doesn't work. It's interesting how bribes look very similar though.
Perhaps, in the age of the internet, political donations aren't really a necessity anymore and the laws should change regarding receipt of these as a whole.

Someone said collander had a lock on the rental baby stroller concession there, eh?
This is just a small but not isolated example of how a commissioner from one district can be influenced by business or political interests from another district. This leads to another RELATED issue of questionable influence and Collier County leadership. Its come to my attention and I have seen numerous advertisements supporting and recommending Fire District consolidation under Collier County government. Its also been brought to my attention that this issue is being pushed by a local Firefighters Union President who has made very very questionable comments and what I would characterize as "threats" against a local retired firefighter and Golden Gate resident. If this is the type of leadership and political shenanigans that voters wish to bring to your Local fire and rescue services then you should support Fire & Rescue Service consolidation under the control Collier County Government. Rest assured it will not lower the cost and it will lead to less accountability and budget controls. Keep your local Fire and Rescue service locally owned, operated and most importantly ACCOUNTABLE. Tell Ms. Tobin to stop making threats or step down. Vote Tom Henning out as he is part of the problem.
Henning has a long tradition of selling out existing Collier residents, which is why so few of them contribute to his campaign.
I well remember his selling out of the Oakes Blvd. neighborhood over the SuperTarget. Lots of promises made, ignored a room full of taxpayers who definitively stated they did not want the development, oh well who cares about taxpayers? He had already been paid.
Plus when we keep electing pro-development commissioners, who are active buuilders, developers, etc., you will get these kind if shenanignans. Am I the only person who remembers Stadium Naples?
Now that Henning gets free advice from Hiller, we can all count on local politics to go to a new low.
Money pouring in from Pelican Bay's Hillerites, money pouring in from Golden Gate Estates' Nance posse.
Henning/Hiller/Nance ... bringing local politics to a new low. Can they surpass Stadium Naples and manage to skirt the law?
And by the by, why didn't Henning disclose his oh-so-important interest in the vacant lot in Immokalee supposedly held in 'trust' in his financial disclosure required of all candidates?
The trust is not in his name ... just who is named in that trust? What else did Henning NOT disclose? Any additional 'trusts' out there that he forgot to mention? Maybe trying to hide assets from the soon-to-be ex-wife?
Chicanery in its most detestable form.
Thanks for fortifying our mistrust in all things government. I thought responsible leaders were supposed to elevate the public, not drag them further down that muddy path of political corruption.ad

A cold front blew in and I am loving it!Sunday was Ben's birthday so we went to Chili's to celebrate...where else?
After the guys left, I took my medicine and expected to go to sleep, wrong. A crazy case of insomnia kicked in instead. Instead of laying in bed and starring at the ceiling, I decided to go out in my backyard and lay and stare at the stars. I could not get over how wonderful it felt outside. It was 79 degrees and breezy. I must have had a lot on my mind because I was out there for about 2 1/2 hours just sorting all my thoughts into neat folders in my head and listening to music I hadn't listened to in over a year. Ya know those songs you listened to a lot during one specific time in you life?
Tonight I am actually sleepy and ready for bed, so goodnight all. Until next time...
I have spent so much time on the couch in front of the tv, I have watched just about everything on my DVR and Netflix Instant Queue. After my options got slim I started browsing through the newly added stuff on Netflix. Guess what I found...

Along side all of that shopping I did in Tulsa, I bought a new duvet set to match Rae's for our room in the fall (yes we're those roommates that have coordinating bedding) and Misty had a Premier Jewelry party tonight. I hadn't planned on buying much at the party, I don't wear much jewelry at all. But there were these 3 necklaces I just loved!
Alright, I admit it openly here on my blog that I really miss Rae. Today I was talking to a few of my guy friends and I was asked if I were to get married tomorrow, who would be my maid of honor?
I decided to blog this right after I made the gushiest comment on her blog just now. I was slightly embarrassed about it after I posted it, but now I'm wondering shouldn't all friends be this way?Real friendships should be encouraging and supportive and be able to subject yourself to a little vulnerability. Do I have these same friendships here at home anymore?
So I've ended up going a bit of a different direction with this post. There's a little thoughts out of my head for the moment. Until next time...

Region North of Amsterdam leads the way in the Netherlands in the field of knowledge development and the application of sustainable energy. This is thanks to its progressive nature paired with all the advantages required for innovation and sustainable enterprise: wind, water, sun and gas.
Add in the healthy business climate and intensive collaboration among the business community, knowledgeyou’ve got a region that is always one step ahead in the energy transition.
Fossil fuels are being phased out gradually in favour of alternative sustainable energy sources. And not just the geographic advantages are being fully utilised in this respect – in addition to offshore wind, wave and tidal energy, the region is a forerunner in the field of green gas and biogasification. And solar is naturally also another key source of energy.
Holland above Amsterdam serves as an international example and is the leading national platform in the field of sustainable energy. It is a forerunner on all fronts in the economy of the future, with a very distinct and strong ambition: to be energy neutral by 2040.

. If it is successful, we’ll offer this model to other large and small churches to look at creating similar partnerships called “circuits.”
My comment (unresponded to as of this writing) is thus:
- Firstly, I’m personally opposed to franchising a particular church and for local churches to cede their message to people outside their community. I will watch with interest the ways how COR’s partner churches reflect on this experience.
- Secondly, with franchised churches (at least the half-dozen case studies I’ve seen) the predominant number of people you get are not converts but disenfranchised Christians from other churches. So I wonder what CoR’s goal is in offering a franchise to a local church?
- Finally, I’m particularly shocked at an outright desire to “take over” the message of student, local, and lay pastors…the ones most likely to need coaching, yes, but also the most vulnerable to the temptation to cede the message. I’m honestly concerned at why CoR is targeting not troubled churches but vulnerable pastors?
Regardless, the rising phenomenon now is to outsource the message of a local church to outsiders so that clergy can focus on other aspects of ministry.conversation, which included an intern and a staff person at CoR, so read more there.
But the question still remains: if the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached from afar, not informed by the receiver, is that congregation an individual church or is it an extension of a mother church? If the sermons come from the top-down and community comes from the bottom-up, are they their own churches or the same church in different contexts?
Jeremy – here is one answer that may be something of a crossbreed answer. It’s not completely worked out but it seems more respectful of the local context:
I work in a UM district that has appro. 88 churches; 64 charges and only 6 elders in the district. So one of the questions that we have, like Adam Hamilton, is how do we provide appropriate pastoral oversight and leadership in msot of these very small churches? A model we are talking about (not put in use yet) is to have the “county seat” churches served by elders, usually with other full-time staff as well, help resource and provide oversight to the several small (under 30 in worship) churches that are willing to partner together. Trying to find a model of co-operative ministry and not competitive ministry.
This may be why some of us will watch what happens with CoR with interest.
I don’t want to go to a church with a video pastor. I want a pastor who lives in, and understands the climate of my community. I want a pastor I can talk to after the service is over if I want to discuss his message. I want to be in community with the shepherd who is feeding us – the one who is preaching. I don’t want “take out.” So, as one who has served in the Methodist Church for several years and others for nearly 25, I will not be drawn to anything like the CoR model. The term marketing doesn’t belong in the church. I’m old fashioned maybe, but I still think the best marketing a church has is the people – walking billboards. I understand helping out the little churches, but perhaps the bishop in each district should oversee the little churches in a way where they send out people to fill the local pulpits. If Adam Hamilton wants to do this all for free I don’t have as much of a problem with it. However, if it’s another money make I say, “Run!” I’ve heard Adam teach and preach and he’s good at what he does. However, there are many, many men and women with the gifts and graces to preach and teach in the local church – some aren’t even ordained! Gasp! Thank you for the opportunity to say just a little bit.
This seems to be the trending model. I think it’s a positive move, it seems that the local pastor still has significant oversight, leadership, and interpretive rquality message. Is it that much different than leading Disciple Bible Study? or listening to a podcast later? The local pastor can then focus truly training disciples.
As a full time local pastor serving a 2 point charge, I agree with John’s statement. If the dCOM and/or my DS feel that I am incapable of performing the duties to which I have been called and licensed, then let them deny my annual license. The congregations that I serve deserve more than a canned sermon… even from an exceptional preacher like Adam Hamilton.
When I was in seminary and taking preaching classes (which was one of my biggest anxieties) we talked about the ways that knowing the community to whom you are preaching is important to know. Granted, there may be many similiarities between CoR’s main campus congregation and many other congregations of smaller size, but it seems to me that a localized pastor with more intimate knowledge of the people in the pews would be able to use specific illustrations that would make the overall message that much more applicable and relatable. Whether the “mothership” preacher is good or not isn’t the point – preaching is part of the pastor’s role and a tool for them to us in the care of the congregation. Often (for better or worse, right or wrong) it’s the largest part of a relationship with a congregant. Will these pastors have knowledge of what’s in the sermon ahead of time where they can taylor it to the local church with other parts of the service? Do they get to opt-in or out as they see fit? If there’s an incident in the local community that needs to be addressed, I would hope they would have some ability to write a poignant sermon that helps the community process and deal with it in a spiritually healthy way.
On another note, I get to visit lots of different churches through my work with Habitat for Humanity Kansas City and I recently went to a large nondenom church start meeting in a local high school. They have a second campus at another high school in the area and were hosting a team of people from a similiar kind of church in Wichita that is getting ready to set up a second campus. They were studying different churches here in the KC area to see how they’ve done it and learn what they liked and didn’t want to repeat. Some of them had gone to COR campuses (several different ones) and I overheard some of their conversation while I was sitting at my Habitat table in the lobby. Most of it related to logistics and A/V equipment, but not all of it. I found it fascinating.
I’m In one of those churches that Adam Hamilton preaches to through DVD’s. I don’t like it at all. I long for the days of a pastor alone. We have gone from being a conservative church to a progressive one. Pray for each and every one of us, that we may not have to endure this much longer. Thank you, Tommy
Wow, my first thought is that if I were a student pastor I would


Darling urged to boost SMEs | City A.M.
A TRADE body representing small and mid cap listed companies has written to chancellor Alistair Darling criticising the government's haphazard approach to growth markets.
The Quoted Companies Alliance (QCA) raised concerns over a range of proposals which it said could seriously damage markets such as Aim and Plus. It called for either the Treasury or the Department for Business to take responsibility for smaller firms.
The QCA is also worried that changes to the EU's Prospectus Directive could make fundraising more onerous for Aim and Plus-quoted companies than for companies on the Official List.
Chief executive Tim Ward has asked the Treasury to set up a working group to focus on the various policies affecting UK equity markets. Ward wants to see better cooperation with countries such as France, which is introducing specific legislation on small listed companies. He warned growth stocks "could just wither on the vine if Europe isn't careful".

Each partner school creates five challenges different in style, level, duration and performing method. In these challenges the students are stimulated to overcome their anxieties, work in a team, rely on each other, motivate themselves and experience success directly.
The activities will be formed in a way to strengthen students’ self-awareness and self-esteem, raise empathy, develop.
The activities will be executed in Erasmus+ Club and also with other students during different special days, like sports day, nature school or during Class lessons.


On October 26, the South West constituency welcomed the new academic year! We had the opportunity to meet Spanish researchers and students, living and working/studying in the UK. It was a brilliant opportunity to meet new people, do networking, and discover everything SRUK has to offer; all this, in a relaxed and fun environment.
The event took place on Saturday 26th of October 2019. We met at 6:30 pm at Zero Degrees Microbrewery (53 Colston St, Bristol, BS1 5BA).


J'aimerais savoir s'il existe un terme spécifique en anglais pour désigner ce qu'on appelle un Ancien. Aux Arts & Métiers, il s'agit d'un étudiant plus âgé qui prend sous son aile un jeune étudiant pour l'accompagner dans diverses démarches au sein de l'école. Existe-t-il ce genre de concept dans les universités anglo-saxonnes ?
The French term anglo-saxon can be used to mean "English-speaking": II.− Subst. Un(e) Anglo-Saxon(ne). Celui ou celle qui habite les Îles britanniques ou qui en est originaire ou appartient à un peuple de civilisation britannique (https://www.cnrtl.fr/definition/anglo-saxon)/(1863). Relatif aux peuples de civilisation britannique*. « La notion anglo-saxonne de l'État » (A. Siegfried). (Un, une Anglo-Saxonne). Personne qui appartient à l'un des peuples de civilisation britannique.
© 2017 Dictionnaires Le Robert - Le Grand Robert de la langue française. So, do keep using that phrase in French.
agree ph-b: on the basis of Florian's definition.
My first thought is to juxtapose "junior" and "senior" to refer to new and older students at a school or college/university, with the latter (supposedly) having the knowledge and experience to help the former settle in and find their feet (practical, social and perhaps even academic support).
Despite no solid refs, and the specific meaning of "senior" in the US context to refer to a fourth-year student notwithstanding, the term sounds intuitive to me and I think it would be readily understood by any English-speaker.
Off topic, I shudder every time I see "Anglo-Saxon" used to refer to anything other than the Germanic tribes that settled in Britain from C5. I know the term is widespread in French and (horror of all horrors!) is gaining ground in English too, but it should be avoided like the plague in careful writing. Use English-speaking, Anglophone or Anglosphere if that's what you mean or Anglo-American if you're being specific.
"Anglo-Saxon is not a synonym for English-speaking.."
neutral Emma Page: I think this really does depend on the context. I would strongly caution against using "senior" and "junior" to mean anything but fourth and third year undergraduates, respectively, in the US, to avoid inevitable confusion. Elsewhere, maybe.
Does Ancien really mea? That may be the case in context, which we don't have, but that is not what the term usually means.
And so the translation must reflect either the term asked or the definition given.
Ancien (esp. with a capital A as in the text of the question) stands for « Ancien élève », defined as “Qui n'a plus sa qualité antérieure (exprimé par le subst. qualifié). Ancien élève ” ( https://www.cnrtl.fr/definition/ancien), i.e. someone who is no longer a student in that school (and so, not just “étudiant plus âgé “).
The word "alumnus" comes to mind: “someone who has left a school, college, or university after finishing their studies there” (halu... or ““ (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/alumnus). See also Termium :a...
Note too that the American friends of A&M call themselves the “(816 Active) Alumni Network” (https://americanfriendsam.org/#g-contenttab-4).
We don’t know the destination country, but all English-speaking universities that I know use "alumnus" in that sense.
However, do Anciens really do that: “”? That’s for bodies like the students’ association/union, or whatever they call themselves. If Anciens can do some of it (but within the school? ), what they mostly do is a lot of networking.
For that reason, I think that “peer mentor” fits at least part of the definition that we are given (“prendre sous son aile”) and could be the right idea here.
