How To Logologically Select The Vice-President, A. Ross Eckler
How To Logologically Select The Vice-President, A. Ross Eckler
Word Ways
Presidential candidates use various criteria to select their running mates; usually, they pick ones who supposedly offset their political weaknesses. However, logological compatibility is never considered. It is the purpose of this article to remedy this omission.

Obama And Mccain Cross Words, A. Ross Eckler
Word Ways
Many cross words are exchanged by the two presidential candidates and their adherents during an electoral campaign, and 2008 has been no exception. However, this is no documentation of their billingsgate, but instead a presentation of crossed words. OBAMA and MCCAIN form a cross in a five by six word rectangle.

Inclusive Learning Environments: An Analysis Of Early Intervention Service Options For Preschoolers With Special Needs, Mimi L. Heath
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
In the quest to restructure educational programming toward higher student outcomes for preschoolers with special needs, professional educators are continuously challenged to provide with integrity a free appropriate public education (FAPE) in the least restricted environment (LRE) as mandated by law. This study analyzed the effectiveness of an inclusive programming model for preschoolers with special needs by examining achievement gains in the developmental domains of adaptive, motor, and cognitive skills as assessed by the Battelle Developmental Inventory, Second Edition. Analysis of an inclusive learning environment for six preschoolers with special needs as guided by IEP committee recommendations occurred. In order …
A Multicriteria Approach For The Evaluation Of The Sustainability Of Re-Use Of Historic Buildings In Venice, Margaretha Breil, Silvio Giove, Paolo Rosato
A Multicriteria Approach For The Evaluation Of The Sustainability Of Re-Use Of Historic Buildings In Venice, Margaretha Breil, Silvio Giove, Paolo Rosato
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers
The paper presents a multiple criteria model for the evaluation of the sustainability of projects for the economic re-use of historical buildings in Venice. The model utilises the relevant parameters for the appraisal of sustainability, aggregated into three macro-indicators: intrinsic sustainability, context sustainability and economic-financial feasibility. The model has been calibrated by a panel of experts and tested on two reuse hypotheses of the Old Arsenal in Venice. The tests have proven the model to be a useful support in the early stages of evaluation of re-use projects, where economic improvements are to be combined with conservation, as it supports …

More Distinct Dozens And Then Some, Steve Kahan
More Distinct Dozens And Then Some, Steve Kahan
Word Ways
As introduced in Volume 40, Number 2 of Word Ways, a "distinct dozen" is a twelve-letter word in which no single letter appears more than once. Herein are eight new distinct dozens, accompanied by eight distinct baker's dozens - thirteen-letter words with the same property. As an additional challenge, one fourteen-letter and one fifteen-letter member of the genre have also been included.

Word Ways
Another dip into the pool of consecutive palindromic triads! As in the previous two offerings in this genre (Word Ways, Volume 40, Numbers 3 and 4), you are faced with a restoration project. Using each of the fifty consecutive palindromic triads presented in the triad pool once and only once, construct a word, phrase or name by placing two of them back-to-back into the compressions listed below.

Acrostic Equations, Anil
Word Ways
David Morice in WW 96-179 introduced acrostic equations with the only possible perfect example, TEN = Twenty + Eighty - Ninety. It's purity is perhaps best left unpolluted by more forced examples. But nooo, I couldn't refrain from offering variously flawed solutions for the other number names.

THE GAME: Two players alternately chose one of the words ARTY, BRED, DOUX, EXIT, MAID, MOLT, RIOS, SLA, SUEY until one of them wins by obtaining three words with a common letter. If neither player gets three of the same letter. If neither player gets three of the same letter, the game is a draw.

1-2-3 now, let's have the answers to those clues about numbers as used in British and American slang. Some are a little "near the bone," as the British say, numbers being used not only for convenience (as in telegraphic greetings) but also for sidestepping unpleasantness. Good luck. 10-4.

Unusual Words, Susan Thorpe
Word Ways
GIGANTIC is a word familiar to readers of Word Ways in having two letters G with strikingly different pronunciations. Other words which have two like letters with obviously different pronunciations include JACKAL, ACETIC, EGRET, GORGE, INSIDE, JERONIMO, BASES, UNUSED, XEROX and YELLOWY. There are thousands of other words with 2 like letters which have different pronunciations. Many of these differences are more subtle than those in the …

I Love You More Than..., Simon Nightingale
I Love You More Than..., Simon Nightingale
Word Ways
When my children were little we played a game called "I love you more than...". It involved making a long list and alternatingly adding an item. The aim was to memorise the list. If you failed to remember the list, then you didn't love enough!! It is the same principle as "my aunt packed in her trunk...". By tradition, we always started with "I love you more than all the tea in china ... and the hairs on my head and the grass in the meadow and so on ...."

Word Ways
As I continue to work on a book of funny errors, I encounter no shortage of material. Whether online, or in print, one readily finds such confusions - often with amusing consequences - as tenant for tenet, diffuse for defuse, pour for pore, loathe for loath, martial for marital, pubic for public, Calvary for cavalry. But nothing quite equals the distinctive website address inexplicably chosen by a shrink named Richard S. Horowitz: richardtherapist.com. Your blooper contributions, to the above address, are welcomed. Now, here is a collection of risible specimens.

-Gry Revisited, Darryl Francis
Word Ways
Over the years, much has been written in Word Ways about words and names ending in the three letters -gry. Since these same three letters can also be arranged in five other ways, I wondered whether any words existed that ended with these. A hunt through the Oxford English Dictionary turned up some items of interest.
