Addendum: Undead From The Mizpah

7:56 PM Tukiyooo 0

Morning at the Mizpah in Tonopah, home of the Muckers. I lugged my luggage into the elevator where I met a seemingly normal woman who asked if I had stayed here last night. That struck me as an odd question to ask a stranger in a hotel elevator but what do I know? Maybe it's done in Tonopah. "Yes," I answered. "Did anything happen?" she asked with arched eyebrows. "Hmmmmmm," I thought in a cloud shaped word balloon. "Nothing in particular," I said. "Was something supposed to?" She told me how her family had seen an ice chest lid open all by itself -- as in with no one else around. It turns out the Mizpah is famously haunted. I owned up to seeing a couple of UFOs last night but no evidence of specters. The conversation continued with the desk clerk Victorina, an exceptionally nice lady who watched my bags while I dashed upstairs for another load. According to Victorina, the nonpaying spooks of the Mizpah include two ghostly miners, two children, and a lady in red. The Mizpah has been on that tv show about real ghosts -- which explains why the tv at the Mizpah bar shows Ghost Story instead of a football game. By now I was in uniform so I told her I could dispatch the five wraiths. I've done it before. But I acknowledged that for marketing purposes it might be better to keep them. One thing for sure: on my next visitation schedule I will be at St Mark's, Tonopah for All Saints Day so I can spend Halloween at the Mizpah -- but I have to say I spent one Halloween at the Hotel Nevada in Ely and that was pretty wild!

Why not use Screencast-o-matic to create instructions for technology lessons?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> I love Screencasting as a teaching tool. Up to now I have tried Jing, and even paid for Jing pro. Then I heard about Screenr and tried that. It seemed to me that Screenr did what Jing Pro does. Today the thought came to me that I should try Screencast-o- matic. (<a href="http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/">http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/</a>) The site tells me that it is the original Screencast programme. That’s interesting! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguHfzaslCV0MM5zXyTM8MYnSIwInykj6WUrN61RJKm-Y11PpsgwHNhhM9Pzsu1RMWL8M4xwwe4fgma3CTvrFol_o_A0Byd_qvSDNYJ7VZBHPtYpyhWqR_nbaZOhyACWmlStsg4TpCiMis/s1600-h/image3.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="273" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5Hhdx76tPAMs2Sjy5d6crT_7CZilzR1S1RWd1nhwiAqrsDQeWCjCW9lGSbjOXPfLgITiBCqBbNqevWQRnNyntM9gDlUjU20sTeVjjCGnr4In1GCdOJJ-mQhn6Bf80Yujs5hupPZtPgm4/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> There is a demo video to watch. I must say, after watching it there seem to be some very nice features in Sceencast-o-matic! Two things I REALLY like is the fact that  your maximum time with the free version is 15 minutes, and that you can upload directly to your YouTube channel. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1PCZPdJhFipwAdneOq9XFSdaapb1cBBYV9ff9sVwf-QOa4qL8GRnMlxHSssKww4HVLnyAZB3QVM4COyDLwA8WDEenO8yeYdmKXnEQfriqBRd21McXFe63cP7wTh18cNcAdJt7ZllnkYw/s1600-h/image7.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="211" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRgxIyqbCM87QUX1xHD3xZja4pk1Kj0AXn5S8iHOipseN_w227F0FaCS3iEIEwseG-ugPbH66HxZHVCHWIKPvy1cuRoLnp9_VjFv8i4rEicNhxNQPwJtH1irCUFm74BegiKrzc47Ubp7A/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> The next thing to do would be to join the site, It is all free. I joined and found there is a Pro version, but it may not be necessary to have all those extra features for my use. How to use Screencast-o-matic 1. Click on Start Recording <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzMZu2cBCNNnJTPXYNIvdAOr5tHJtZit2A67xZcnJg6jeyw4OZt_POa-LAmyKmBIqzoWC8VV_4uoGMyXo9XQ494YopBGzYCk9uCl6pj7AU9OGLnqIhu6kg1imeaugT0kE1U8qUmEwkEnA/s1600-h/image11.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="195" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh73cGgPa7PnoR1Hqyt0fUmWbAuinM5MCtYA03MuN3zgma6xWiSwvCioGCcjAGgv3EZLA_AvQ3dS4s33Q9qtd2X-wZDWgqeQdh-x7YY_zIxqmtv7k-BAVNnkvVFkqGXS7YcLnaaWXPumho/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> You’ll notice that a dotted line block appears. At the bottom you can choose the screensize that you want. I really like this feature. 2. Find the page on the internet that you want to start recording from <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6CEI1deTrRv1eCd-Ajjl4aMB0eiHl93ufFewkw9aYACM6BxVZ6MUp08TJLKIhLLxYk58NQ6V6v8YUZlyBpXhKAMXOfizCRrlH2TYcBO9_wuqr0oZPMftPmqv3zOb8_-EUsDiRLrIcneY/s1600-h/image15.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="260" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinUYWfyjm9Vish3Dz-sgcY5w0sLQktoZsAQgHNUsF4krrcFyrJBkUavH1o0JYlRJHLta0MaSb325OpLrjZx6ddlifon0tOtbOBR1RxSxzLl1jiXOcY7STxWPuJMpGmM-0PIABN_ORTWSM/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> 3. Check your settings Check the little arrow next to the microphone to make sure you have the right microphone checked (I find that headphones work the best). Press the red arrow and start recording. You can press it again to pause during your recording session and then continue if you want to. When you are finished press the word Done. It will take you to a preview page. 4. Listen and decide <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAfeumaHYHt6yH7b6JDMFFr2GgBDqwiEw73K1ElTpXs_AmCnla2bqS6hV6asSQ-_QQQEoSPRYDZk8PtTR0v6mb_Mt9TI6-hgKFbAVYEeKwI80HBzbskgQzKT8FGjeN1AMRpESKnPigKSA/s1600-h/image19.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="182" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkxOOZ4_L_BGlkiIUJOqe9q27tgd74hSiLxP4JI_S6g7NYXZLwAJQpTKUi8sVfcbde3OClL6LW6gVVXtiEAKGe1swkjGh8wZIYP8ifuMTIoLexAqeAhwk7Bky8DHmA0YwtN_FUn2-EFUk/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> If you like what you hear you can press one of the options on the right (or all three one after the other): * Upload directly to YouTube * Save in your Screencasts section on Screencast-o-matic * Download it as a video. Another feature I really like is that you can arrange your screencasts in folders on Screencast-o-matic’s ‘My Screencasts’ channel page. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-vAq3EE7M4cpamX4xX92x7naxfnVul9ZjLgLhdIyveDX-3ixMh4cKby5mcGw2f24BkQX8TNCdMHqEZHhmekViBQ8lLI2UXsvk7mnVQ0MAtc6yKgsqhQcT0GSqN80Qv2rOxKoPQZr7_W0/s1600-h/image23.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUDZF8LddU6VjltT-BLAcTKi60Ufx6TVsm6bTv2rKJRBrpCCcSB50os9qsP651MpCAWAJB3KZGAwyZgZHcBC-MSHPWondAdRPuSTif4BlG4nEFNSvv7N2WNux8CkLrvHvCsyCXKV2L2BU/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="320" /></a> I really like this Screencasting programme very much. It just seems to offer me exactly what I am looking for. An example that I made I made a recording entitled ‘How to write a comment on a blog’. Here it is: <iframe frameborder="0" height="438" scrolling="no" src="http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/embed?sc=cXXIFiuXl&w=500&v=3" width="502"></iframe> Ideas for the classroom using Screencast-o-matic 1. Use it to present a lesson online. It can be used to cater for diverse levels of understanding. 2. Use it to explain a homework task. The students can then go over things at home. 3. Students that have been absnt can use it to catch up tasks. 4. The students themselves can use screencasts to illustrate something they have learned. 5. Screencast-o-Matic is perfect for illustrating research methods, and musical instrument tutorials, 6. Teachers can use it to give parents and students simple directions on how to use the class website or wiki …and much, much more!</div>

First there was Greece, the cradle of democracy, where early this month, the mention of a referendum offering the citizens a say in a series of severe austerity measures was enough to cause a uproar among the banksters and political marionettes of the financial markets which resulted in the resignation of Prime Minister George Papandreou who just wanted to bring the proposal before the people, as intended in democracy. Subsequently Merkozy, under the pressure of the banksters forced upon Greece a caretaker government under the leadership of Lucas Papademos, former vice president of the European Central Bank. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;">Next on the line was Italy. Berlusconi found himself under pressure from the financial establishment and thus investors made a collective decision that he could no longer be trusted at the helm of the euro zone's third largest economy. Within an eye blinker Berlusconi was enthroned and the very idea of holding a vote to replace him became void.
