So is it possible to embed a video directly from the Vodpod site? Yes, it is. One benefit is that Vodpod is not blocked at school. Too bad YouTube is!

There was high drama and lots of excitement at yesterday’s Mock Trial. Mr. Drobny took some great pictures, so check them out at the sidebar.
iseroma live, one of the most popular features of iseroma.com (and a great way to get your office hours), is moving to Sundays, 8:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
I’m moving iseroma live to Sunday nights because Tuesdays were crazy for me and because many of you wanted to change the day.
Right now, iseroma live is only for my advisees.

A video of last Friday’s performance of “Square Boy Rebel” at the All-School Meeting has made its way to YouTube, with 200 views so far.
The video is also being shared on Facebook.
Check out Kenneth, Tray’von, Rodney, and Dustin’s performance below (at home, where YouTube isn’t blocked) or to your right in the sidebar.

One of the best new clubs on campus is We Reflect The Future. The club has produced two radio shows already this year. If you missed one — or if you want to listen to them again — scroll down to the right where you see an iPod. There you’ll find the radio shows as podcasts!

Today we had our Advisory Closure, and despite the several instances of grumbling, the proceedings went well. Enrique reminded people to bring food, and Octavio provided the entertainment.
Before the fun began, Mr. Isero forced his advisees to do SSR, review a Winter Break assignment (the only Advisory homework in the school!), and write a nice letter to a peer.
The complaints and sarcastic comments abounded, especially when Principal Rood entered the room. Charity remarked that Mr. Isero is “always studious” and Chezlyn noted that the Isero Advisory was “going to college.” Ms. Rood called the group “the second cutest Advisory” after Ms. Turner’s, which was decorating ornaments down the hall.
All in all, it was a successful event. Students even decided to clean up! Now that makes any adviser happy!

After two years, iseroma.com gets a new look today. I hope that you like the redesign: brighter, cleaner, happier.
Besides looking good, the new design is geared to encourage more students and families to interact with the site. I’m hoping that students, especially my advisees, will post original content and that everyone will feel free to interact with each other and write comments.
Go ahead! Find a post and then write a comment!
The redesign is only one of the ways I’m hoping to improve iseroma.com. There will also be more improvements over Winter Break. If you have ideas about how to improve iseroma.com, please leave a comment!
We were supposed to have our November Birthday Celebration tomorrow, but because of the Thanksgiving holiday, Birthday Coordinator Enrique decided to postpone the festivities until next Monday.
