Travel photography is a genre within the field of photography. Such a photo can show the landscape, culture and feelings of the people who live in a certain country or area. Those who take award-winning pictures often live in New York City, but spend much of their time on location. A NY Travel Photographer worthy of winning awards is sensitive to beauty, unusual aspects of a culture and experienced in taking advantage of the optimal lighting.
Outdoor photography is challenging due to the lighting conditions that may exist on any given day. There may be a deadline to meet and it may rain making that impossible. He or she must be ready to shoot one of those spontaneous moments in time that will rarely, if ever, happen again.
These professionals are responsible for the emotions evoked in a National Geographic magazine article. As a practical way to earn their living, they lead photo tours for the people who are aspiring photographers. They supply the pictures for brochures of everything from the exterior of a hotel to the appeal of an exotic white sand beach.
Real estate agents and architects will take advantage of their talents to advertise homes for sale and architectural skills for hire. There are prizes awarded for photojournalism and spot news photography among others. These are some of the most prestigious awards a photographer can aspire to winning.
In 1945 an award was given for the photograph named Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima. This is surely familiar for its magnificent depiction of a monumental event. In 1957 a travel photographer working for the Boston Traveler received an award for four pictures taken from an airplane. They were of the sinking of the SS Andrea Doria.
These photographers brought their experience and skills to these locations. They were in the right place at the right time. There was no second opportunity and no time to wait for good lighting. Spontaneity and talent helped them win awards by taking advantage of an event in time that would never be repeated.

Common Objection to Kalam: Part 3: Multiplicity of Causes
As promised, Part 3 of Common Objections to Kalam is here. I tackle yet another rather common, but no less important, objection to the Kalam Cosmological Argument. And like our previous objection, Adolf Grünbaum used this exact objection in his Group 1 objections to the Kalam Cosmological Argument in, "The Pseudo-Problem of Creation in Physical Cosmology." In it he writes, "it would hardly follow that there is some one single conscious agency which was required causally for the occurrence of the supposed first state of the total physical universe.

A brand new community is blossoming in the prominent city of Kingston, Ontario that is going to change student housing forever! University Suites by PRK Developments is bringing all of the comforts and amenities of condominium style living to "The Hub." As one of Canada's most historically important cities, Kingston was the home of our first Prime Minister and founding father, Sir John A. Macdonald, but these days, it's home to thousands of students attending Queen's University, making this prime real estate for investors and potential homebuyers alike! Located in the heart of the university district, The Hub is only a few strides away from the Queen's campus. Right on the corner of Princess and University Avenues, two of Kingston's most distinguished streets, residents will have complete access to the best in the city with regards to shopping, dining, entertainment and transportation.
Offering 195 turn-key, rent ready suites with three year lease backs, this development has prices starting from $188,900! Residents and locals will also gain access to the new shops available at ground level with preferential designers and retailers coming to further embellish the community streetscape. As one of Kingston's up-and-coming areas, The Hub is near trendy restaurants, cafes and eateries, hospitals and shopping, but it can also be home to those who work in the neighbouring business district, which is thriving more and more each day. Engulfed by historical sites, Victoria Park is just a block away, making for a great solo retreat or tourist attraction for visiting guests.
Smaller in scale than Ontario's other renowned cities like Toronto or Ottawa, Kingston offers small town conveniences with a big city lifestyle (when you want it). Unlike the big cities, Kingston provides residents with shorter commutes, throughout the city at any time, while maintaining dynamic business and entertainment industries. Due to its long existence and historical relevance, the city also offers state-of-the-art amenities, including access to the breathtaking shores of Lake Ontario. Residents can visit marinas, be a part of yacht clubs, enjoy the romantic parks under the shade of mature trees and explore Canada's historical gems by visiting the preserved and restored heritage buildings.

At Alternative Divorce Solutions, our Orange County divorce mediator can help you and your spouse create a marital agreement tailored to your marriage. Both prenuptial agreements, which are made before you are married, and postnuptial agreements, or those made during your marriage, can help you define rights, responsibilities, and help protect you in the event of death or divorce.
Pre- and postnuptial agreements can and should be customized to your unique situation.
Deciding on these important issues from the outset of your marriage can save your family a great deal of emotional turmoil when you are already going through the stress of death or divorce. When you speak to our Orange County mediator, we can help you come up with a solid plan to help minimize potential disagreements and put the control in your hands.
Both pre- and postnuptial agreements encourage communication about important issues and minimize conflicts over money, business interests, and property gained before your marriage, which are some of the leading causes of divorces in California.
In addition, marital agreements can help protect inheritance to future generations, children from prior marriages, and agree to issues involved in your estate plan. Separate and joint property can be established and all decisions about how your assets will be divided can be settled. This can not only make divorces less contentious but give you one less thing to worry about in the event of an untimely death.

text: The Lion and the Unicorn are symbols of the United Kingdom. They are properly speaking heraldic supporters, appearing in the full Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. The lion stands for England and the unicorn for Scotland. The combination therefore dates back to the 1603 accession of James I of England who was already James VI of Scotland.

I subscribed for the daily SMS bundle offer from zong by sending "sub" to 700. I received the following replies from zong.
1) "You have ordered package Daily SMS 500 for SMS_Bundle successful."
2) "You have ordered package Daily SMS 500 For SMS Bundle successfully. The package is activated now. Keep enjoy with ZoNG."
You see the simple English language mistakes in these replies? "successful" is used instead of "successfully" and in next message "Keep enjoy" is used instead of "Keep enjoying"
Should big companies like Zong, ignore such things?
Here is another misleading message from Zong. I had low credit in my Zong sim, to be exact seven (7) Rs. I called to my brother's phone and I heard a recorded voice saying
"You have insufficient balance left. please recharge.
aap ka balance na-kafi hay, brai meharbani recharge kar lain."
As the message started, I thought my balance is over and I disconnected the call without talking to my brother. I used a different phone to make the call. Today, I checked my balance and I was surprised to see it was 7 Rs. I tried to make the call again, and noticed that after playing the the above message, Zong connected the call to my desired number.
But why they are playing this audio message? There is no reason for this. Especially the text of the voice message is completely misleading. The balance was sufficient for call, but still they said it's insufficient ( na-kafi ).
I request Zong to remove such messages or at least change he wording of the recorded message.

Maori MPs set to make Criminals of Parents
The Maori Party's four MPs have decided to support Sue Bradford's private members bill, which would make it illegal for parents to discipline children. Their support is likely to help the bill become law, and make criminals of tens of thousands of caring parents.
The Green Party MP's anti-smacking bill has split Parliament, with some parties divided on their support, although most of the "Gumment" (as Sue calls it) will vote in favour. (Labour MPs have no choice, their party doesn't believe in democracy. That means even the likes of Muslim MP Ashraf Choudhary are being forced to vote for it).
Family-friendly United Future leader Peter Dunne will support Bradford's bill, but his other 2 MPs will vote against it. At least two New Zealand First MPs including former school Principal Brian Donnelly are also supporting the anti-discipline bill.
National Party MP Chester Borrows was hoping to win the support of MPs including the Maori Party, for an amendment which would allow parents to use limited force (like a light smack). However, Sue Bradford said she'd withdraw her bill altogether if that amendment looked like succeeding.
New Zealand's Popular and Competent PM Hillin Cluck is expecting the bill to pass. She claims she was only smacked once as a child, and remembers feeling "resentful" afterwards.
Saturday's Hutt News reported that a rebellious Upper Hutt teen has already called in CYFS, after his mum tried to get him to go to school by threatening to smack him.
Apparently the mother told him he had five minutes to get ready or he would get a whack. She has hit her two children around the back of the legs, but never beats them. The CYFS social worker who visited the home said that her son decided not to press charges, but that the mother could have been prosecuted.

Research covers Iran quake
More than six months after a devastating earthquake struck the ancient Iran city of Bam, residents still need 20,000 homes.
BY SUSAN KIM | BOULDER, Colo. | July 14, 2004
The U.S. has trade sanctions against Iran, and these prohibit us from publishing co-authored articles in journals.
Marjorie Greene
More than six months after a devastating earthquake struck the ancient Iran city of Bam, residents still need 20,000 homes.
Representatives and partners of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) shared details of the needs at the 29th Annual Hazards Research and Applications Workshop in Boulder, Colorado.
More than 25,000 people died in the Dec. 26, 2003, quake, and more than 20,000 others were injured. Some 1,200 children were orphaned. Bam lost 8,000 to 10,000 students; 560 teachers; 200 health professionals; its foremost singer; and its mayor, a 29-year-old civil engineer.
Bam, an ancient city located in the middle of desert terrain, had a sophisticated irrigation system that sustained grave damages.
EERI sent two teams to Iran, one that focused on engineering, science and health issues, and another that focused on social impacts.
Both teams are now working with Iranian colleagues to assess lessons learned, said Marjorie Greene of EERI. Some of the joint findings may not be published in the U.S., she explained.
"The U.S. has trade sanctions against Iran, and these prohibit us from publishing co-authored articles in journals. We believe this is a violation of the First Amendment."
Tom Tobin of Tobin & Associates also commented on how the sanctions have affected collaborative efforts with disaster recovery between the U.S. and Iran. "There is to be no import of technology there. But they're looking for cooperation. It is a rich area for inquiry and collaboration. Iranians want to collaborate.
"There is a strong interest in the sociological community in developing a better understanding of disasters and an understanding of the economic consequences of disasters."
For Bam, those consequences were grave. "It was neighborhood after neighborhood of total collapse," recalled Farzad Naeim of John A. Martin & Associates. "Everything was shut down after the earthquake."
The Bam earthquake marked the first time EERI used satellite imagery to help with reconnaissance in the field.
"It's not just the military with an eye in the sky," said Beverley Adams of ImageCat, Inc., who helped provide technology that could pick up objects as small as 60 centimeters. "We were able to produce a citywide damage map in a couple of days."
And what they found was profound devastation. "All the schools in Bam - 296 of them - were destroyed," said Tobin. "Iran's first university was destroyed. All businesses were destroyed. No family was left unscathed."
Five months after the quake people were still living in tent cities, he said. "The living conditions were difficult. Families had extended numbers of tents connected together.
"And how do we deliver services when the infrastructure has been destroyed?"
When people from outlying villages began to descend on the city, some residents resented it, he added. "They thought, 'these are outsiders, these are intruders. They've come for handouts.' But they were victims, and they had to come there."
Bam was a sophisticated, middleclass part of the world, Tobin said, but the city still faced serious pre-quake challenges. "Bam had a 20 percent unemployment rate before the earthquake," Tobin said. The city was also just coming off a six-year drought.
Iran's incarceration rate also played into post-quake challenges, said Tobin. "One million people are incarcerated across Iran because of drug-related offenses. Twenty percent of males have a drug problem. It's an ongoing problem."
Church World Service and its partners continue to respond to needs in Bam as well.
Residents report that a regular stream of survivors visits the Beheshteh Zahra cemetery where they mourn the loss of loved ones.
Makeshift shops selling food, fruit and clothes have been set up in tents amid yet-to-be-cleared debris.
Water purity is still a major issue in Bam. The Environmental Health Department (EHD), which monitors the water for bacterial contamination, has reported that much of the drinking water is still not safe.
Finally, Bam is still suffering from a drought - rainfall has been at its lowest for the last 30 years.

It's not very often that I find an outstanding practical lipstick, which is why I'm so VERY excited about this week's pick, Clinique's Different Lipstick in Tenderheart. And Tenderheart makes no statement at all; it is not a lipstick you wear to achieve deep intense color, and most people won't even realize you are even wearing lipstick, since its brownish pink hue is just subtlety darker than one's natural lip color. Its ultra lightweight, totally smooth, non-glossy, and feather resistant formula will also feel like you are wearing nothing on your lips as well, and its universal color looks good on practically any skin tone. Importantly, what Tenderheart achieves is the look of perfectly pigmented, beautiful "I was merely born with these lips�?, and who doesn't want that? Tenderheart is a great color for work and play, plus it won't make a mess if you are tending to someone's heart…

BERRYVILLE, Ark. – Among the 300-plus shooters competing for the 2014 IDPA U.S. National Championship this September will be a select group of women from the fast growing national women's program, A Girl & A Gun Women's Shooting League.
A Girl & A Gun is the ladies-only organization established by women shooters for women shooters for the pistol, rifle and shotgun sports. Founded in February of 2011 in Austin, Texas, A Girl & A Gun today has more than 2,500 members in 67 chapters across 23 states, making it the fastest growing women's shooting organization.
In partnership with the International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA), A Girl & A Gun held an introductory IDPA postal competition for its members with 12 women randomly selected to represent the organization at IDPA's 2014 U.S. National Championship being held September 9-13 at the U.S. Shooting Academy in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The all-ladies squad of AG&AG members will be coached through the match by Team Comp-Tac's Randi Rogers, the reigning Women's National Champion.
"I have been in the IDPA family for eight years and A Girl and A Gun was created as a resource to share my love of the shooting sports with as many women as possible. To sponsor the first all-ladies squad gives me a huge sense of accomplishment and pride," said Julianna Crowder, president of A Girl & A Gun.
Representing A Girl & A Gun in the 2014 IDPA U.S. Nationals will be Andrea Lawrence of Missouri, Heidi Darst, Robin Keating, Victoria Kogan, Memarie Lawrence, Tina Maldonado, Christy Ross and Ashley West of Texas, Jennie Van Tuyl and Tiffany Venters of Washington and Renee Krawiec and Wendy Troutman of Wyoming.
"IDPA embraces different organizations to form symbiotic relationships. When A Girl & A Gun Founder Julianna Crowder approached me with the idea of exposing her organization to IDPA, I thought it was a great way to introduce the sport to more women and I hope that we can develop more relationships like this one," said Joyce Wilson, executive director of IDPA.

"Last year's Smith & Wesson Back Up Gun Nationals was one of the best events of the season and we could not wait to be a part of this year's championship. Apex is proud to continue its support of IDPA and the championships hosted by Smith & Wesson," said Scott Folk of Apex.
The 2014 Back Up Gun Nationals will be held on the indoor ranges of the company's Shooting Sports Center. Match officials estimate that 300 top IDPA shooters will be on hand to contest the national title.
"IDPA matches rely on the generous support of companies like Apex Tactical Specialties. Thanks to their sponsorship, the 2014 Back Up Gun Nationals is sure to be another huge success," said Robert Ray, membership and marketing director for IDPA.

BERRYVILLE, Ark. – The International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) and Smith & Wesson announced that Brian Steskla will once again take the reins as Match Director of one of IDPA's most popular new events – the Smith & Wesson IDPA Back Up Gun Nationals.
"Thanks to Brian's leadership, and the tireless efforts of his team, last year's inaugural Back Up Gun Nationals turned out to be one of the most popular matches on the 2013 schedule," said Joyce Wilson, executive director for IDPA.
"Under Brian's guidance, and with the incredible commitment from our gracious hosts at Smith & Wesson, the match this year is sure set a new standard for fun and excitement."
The 2014 Back Up Gun Nationals will be hosted by Smith & Wesson, taking place on the indoor ranges of the company's Shooting Sports Center. The match is scheduled for November 6-8 and an estimated 300 top IDPA shooters are expected to contest the national title.

There is no doubt that this November we will deliver another spectacular Smith & Wesson IDPA competition that shooters will talk about for months afterward," said Brian Steskla.
Online registration for the championship is currently open but slots are limited as the match is expected to sell out. The competition is open to any current IDPA member.

Franklin Graham supports Margaret Court's bigotry
Franklin Graham, the deranged evangelical son of Billy Graham, today came bounding to the defence of former tennis champ Margaret Court who caused outrage this week with anti-gay comments.
Some tennis stars called her views "sick and dangerous" but according to this report, Graham wrote in a Facebook post that Court, who holds the most career Grand Slam singles titles in tennis:
Isn't afraid to speak the truth about sin. Margaret is exactly right when she said, 'No amount of legislation or political point-scoring can ever take out of the human heart the knowledge that in the beginning God created them male and female and provided each with a unique sexual function to bring forth new life.' Sin is a choice, but God's Word is truth and never changes.
Court, a Pentecostal pastor, also claimed that tennis is "full of lesbians," and argued that allowing children to choose their own gender is the work of the devil.
Court told Vision Christian Radio earlier this week:
There is a whole plot in our nation and in the nations of the world today to get the minds of the children. That's all the devil … but that's what Hitler did and that's what communism did – got the mind of the children.
Tennis Australia has said that Court's opinions are not in keeping with the organisation's values, but has so far resisted calls from LGBT activists that the court named in her honour at Melbourne Park be renamed.
Martina Navratilova, another retired tennis player and coach, claimed in an open letter that while Court may be an "amazing tennis player", she is also:
A racist and a homophobe. Her vitriol is not just an opinion. She is actively trying to keep LGBT people from getting equal rights (note to Court: we are human beings too). She is demonizing trans kids and trans adults everywhere.
And now, linking LGBT to Nazis, communists, the devil? This is not OK. This is in fact sick and it is dangerous. Kids will suffer more because of this continuous bashing and stigmatizing of our LGBT community.
Navratilova also shot back against Court's reflections that the sport has many lesbian players.
Now she is doubling down with her ridiculous comments about older women luring young girls on the tour to parties to turn them into lesbians. It's a good thing she didn't name anyone as I am pretty sure she would be sued for defamation.
The row has stirred significant controversy in Australia, where same-sex marriage is not legal, with Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull also pushing back against calls to have the arena renamed. He said:
Whatever people may think about Margaret Court's views about gay marriage … she is one of the all-time greats and the Margaret Court Arena celebrates Margaret Court the tennis player.
Court, who leads the Margaret Court of Victory Life Center Church in Perth, insisted that she does not hate gay people.
[I've got] nothing against homosexuals – as individuals, they can do what they want to do. But my belief, as a Christian, is marriage the Bible way and I think it's sad that these people are using that to try to hit below the belt.
15 responses to "Franklin Graham supports Margaret Court's bigotry"
There are only two ways you can get a face like Court's: finding Jesus or ducking for apples in a deep fat fryer.
"God's Word is truth and never changes."
Oh, okay. I guess John 13:34 doesn't exist then? Sad, that was one of the good bits.
Here we go again….says Ms Court; "That's all the devil … but that's what Hitler did and that's what communism did – got the mind of the children". Getting into the mind (and pants) of the kids is the only way her and the rest of those church facilities will survive. The kettle's calling the pot black here, brainwashing children is the only course of survival for these nefarious types.The former tennis players just keeps getting dumber.
Prior to a major tournament, Boris Becker once said of John McEnroe that he had to respect the tennis player, but not the man. Fortunately for me I'm not a tennis pro, so I don't have to respect either. Court deserves to be forgotten.
I realise that the above photo does not flatter Court, but it appears totally devoid of joy.
Has anyone ever met an extreme Christian who actually enjoys life?
She looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp.
Or a wasp chewing a bulldog.
@ Robster: My thoughts exactly. Religious zealots have been poisoning children's mind for thousands of years with outright lies. Children have been scared psychologically shitless with descriptions of hell-fire, sin, self-pollution. the flesh, etc., and then regaled with fairy stories about a sugar-coated after-life in the clouds. What freethinkers – LGBT or non-LGBT – are trying to do is tell the simple truth, that despite the thousands and thousands of years of intense contemplation, drunken inspiration, babbling in tongues, Ouija boards, seances and so-called 'miracles', etc., there has been not one single thread, shred,scintilla, iota or scrap of evidence for an after-life….and there never will be.
Also I do not see how being a tennis star equates to being intelligent. In this case there is clearly a mismatch.
Oh I forgot – just contrast the happy smiles of the newly-engaged couple with the face of Mrs. Court – I know who I'd like to have at my dinner table.
There is a whole plot in our nation and in the nations of the world today to get the minds of the children.
Yes, I absolutely agree with her there.
We are passionate to see our children worshipping God in spirit and truth and increasing in the knowledge of our Heavenly Father, and we know that as we teach the Word of Faith, the Holy Spirit will transform their lives to become established in Him. We have a spirit-filled curriculum to progressively train the children in an atmosphere of love, honour, joy, creativity and tons of fun.
Perhaps something should be done to prevent the indoctrination of young children with ideological views? As a victim myself, I would be all for it!
More from her church's website:
Healing Workshops
In these workshops you will experience a time of worship; hear scriptural truths and receive ministry from a committed team or prayer warriors who can assist you to overcome any sickness or diesease, oppression or depression, addiction or mindset, that may be trying to overcome you!
God has promised to restore health to you, but if you lack this knowledge you may never walk in the abundant life Jesus said He had come to bring. Being sick, is not an abundant life! Spiritual truths, supported by regular physical activity and a daily renewing of the mind, will enable you to live a long, strong, healthy life- which is the will of God for you.
There is no need to book, just come along and bring your family and friends and let these workshops transform your life, from one of pain and suffering to one of joy and health!
I don't see any dangers in that sort of teaching, do you?
"Spiritual truths, supported by regular physical activity and a daily renewing of the mind, will enable you to live a long, strong, healthy life- which is the will of God for you."
Funny how these people are so confident of knowing the mind and will of their god; right up until they are asked difficult questions about natural disasters and the like, when it becomes blasphemous to try to understand its mind.
@andym: You just blame it all on the Devil – how convenient. I had to deal with it all when my sister died of breast cancer, but by then I could see what nonsense it was.
Game set and match to Martina.
She is having a great time enjoying life whereas Court simply isn't and as a way of filling her time can only bitch and complain about the sins of others. One suspects she is a very jealous and very very inhibited repressed lesbian. And sexual inhibition and lack of sexual fulfilment are sure fire drivers of sour faced meaness and an interfering busy body disposition.
News of Franklin "I don't give a damn" supporting another swivel-eyed, deluded Christian lunatic who understands neither morality nor compassion:
And this from two weeks ago:
"I want the school boards of America in the hands of evangelical Christians within the next four to six years. And it can happen and that will have a huge impact because so many school districts now are controlled by wicked, evil people, and the gays and lesbians, and I keep bringing their name up, but they are at the forefront of this attack against Christianity in America."

- What are Long Term Services and Supports? Long term services and supports (LTSS) are a variety of health and social services that offer care for elders and people with disabilities who need support because of their age; physical, mental, growing or long-lasting health conditions that limit their abilities to care for themselves. LTSS can be provided in the home, in a community-based setting, or in a facility. Activities of daily living can include eating, bathing, grooming, dressing, walking, toileting, getting up/down from a seated position, preparing meals, and help with telephone use.
- How do I access LTSS? LTSS can be accessed through a network of five District of Columbia Government agencies and non-profit organizations that will take part in person and family-centered planning and offer information about and recommendations for LTSS. The information will allow people with disabilities, seniors and their families to make choices about the LTSS they need to live with dignity in their homes and be fully included in their communities for as long as possible. The Department of Health Care Finance (https://dhcf.dc.gov/), Department on Disability Services (https://dds.dc.gov/), Department of Behavioral Health (https://dbh.dc.gov/), Department of Human Services (https://dhs.dc.gov/), DC Office on Aging (https://dcoa.dc.gov/) and nonprofit organizations work together to update access to LTSS from different sources. LTSS is related to any person, of any age or need, who is looking for or planning LTSS.
- What are the eligibility requirements for LTSS? The eligibility requirements for Long Term Services and Supports (LTSS) are made up of both financial and non-financial eligibility criteria. The non-financial eligibility criteria include demographic information such as age, and disability; U.S. citizenship or other qualified status; D.C. residency status; and level of care eligibility. The level of care eligibility is determined by the receipt of a unique score as determined by DHCF's face-to-face long term care assessment tool. The financial eligibility criteria are based on a person's income and assets. The Department of Human Services' Economic Security Administration is responsible for checking a person's financial and non-financial eligibility with the exception of the level of care eligibility. A RN employed by DHCF's agent decides a person's level of care eligibility by giving an assessment determination used by the tool that identifies an individual's level of need for a range of LTSS for which the person is eligible.
- What is Person-Centered Planning? Person-Centered Planning is a person and family-centered approached focused on identifying what is important to and for each person who needs supports (as well as their families) with the goal of allowing people to live in their homes with dignity and be fully included in their communities for as long as possible.
- How do I become a LTSS provider? To become a provider in the Elderly and Persons with Physical Disabilities (EPD) Medicaid Waiver Program, potential providers must submit a complete Provider Enrollment package with all the required documents. It is DHCF's job to make sure potential providers have the required knowledge, skills and abilities to successfully deliver services and supports. The provider enrollment process is all-inclusive and is as follows:
Step 1: Provider must submit a "Letter of Intent" (LOI) to the Long Term Care Administration (LTCA) at [email protected].
The LOI must contain:
- Name of agency with proof of incorporation in the District of Columbia
- Contact person with mailing address, business email address and telephone number
- Brief description of the type of services the prospective provider would like to provide, and;
- Brief statement of the agency's readiness to provide the service(s) for which approval is requested.
The statement must reflect proof of knowledge and understanding of the relationship between State Plan and Waiver services as related to the service provided for which the applicant is seeking approval.
Step 2: LTCA will accept or deny the LOI within 7 business days of receipt. A member of the LTCA team will respond to potential providers via email requesting a corrected LOI or acknowledging receipt of a complete LOI and the following information on next steps:
1. Overview of the readiness process
2. A checklist of required information
3. Scheduled date for attendance at a mandatory information session
Step 3: The potential provider is required to attend the required provider enrollment information session organized by the LTCA within 90 days of submitting the LOI.
A. The meeting will include:
1. An overview of the Department of Health Care Finance's mission statement
2. DHCF's commitment to Federal assurances and performance goals related to the administration and operations of a Home and Community-Based Waiver Service Program
3. Overview of the provider enrollment process
B. The potential provider should coordinate with important individuals involved with the program/service under review to attend this session.
C. The LTCA will maintain appropriate documentation to confirm attendance of potential providers.
D. Mutual understanding between the potential provider and EPD personnel of the readiness review process and the expectations for qualified service providers is the goal of the information session, and questions regarding the process and technical assistance are to be addressed in this forum.
Step 4: The application must be submitted within 90 days of attending the provider enrollment information session with Maximus via www.dcpdms.com, with all requested documents. Maximus will conduct an initial review to ensure all required documents are included and the application is complete, prior to sending the application to DHCF.

Groups defend drunk-driving checkpoint software
Asked if the senators' letter amounted to the government compelling action of the smartphone makers, ACT spokesman Jonathan Godfrey suggested it did. "When the Senate majority leader [Reid] and his senate colleagues send a letter urging you to do something, implicit is that they can have hearings and examine legislative fixes if you don't address their concerns," he said.
When police departments set up DUI checkpoints, they often advertise their plans, added Scott. "All we're doing is we're taking information and pushing it toward the drivers," he said. "A lot of police departments are saying that part of the campaign is awareness. If PhantomALERT gets the word out ... that's going to deter a lot of people from drinking and driving."
PhantomALERT, available since 2008, points out speed traps, red-light cameras, high-accident intersections, speed bumps and other traffic hazards.

Skiers and boarders: It's time to seize the moment and save some dough before you hit the slopes.
Mark your calendars for Monday, Feb. 15, when Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area brings back its $199 season pass sale. Before you start squealing with glee, let us give you some details: Not only do you get to hit the Bogus slopes as much as your winter-loving heart desires through the 2010-2011 season, you can also use that same pass to ski for the rest of this season.
But if you want this killer deal, you must act quickly--the $199 deal is only available through Sunday, Feb. 21. And if you come in a family pack, the one-week-only deal includes an $800 family pass.
Passes can be purchased at bogusbasin.com, by calling 208-332-5162 or in person at 2600 Bogus Basin Road. Don't even try to buy them on the mountain.

Two tickets to Sun Valley cost $127.99 (plus tax) compared to the day ticket price of $82 per person, and two tickets to The Canyons are a mere $109.99 compared to the $81 price tag for a single day ticket charged on the mountain.

Week beginning 30th January 2017
I hope you all liked your photo frame that came home last week. If you did not receive one then it is either on display or it was not completed. Our photo frame display is at the top of the East Stairs.
We finally finished The KrindleKrax story on Friday - we all absolutely loved it and it is always sad when we finish the book. We will be starting to write our own versions of the story this week.
Maths has been a mulitplication festival! We started with the grid method, then moved on to the expanded method and next week, after refreshing, we will move on to standard short mulitplication. All methods are so much easier if the children are confident with their times tables so please, please keep practising them!
Our assembly has been postponed slightly so we are back to working on Volcanoes in Geography. The children really enjoy this topic, I think it is perhaps the destruction that volcanoes can cause, rather like the children of Green on the classroom during any independent tasks!
Science continues with looking at shadows and if there is any sunshine this week, we will be getting outdoors and seeing the size and position of shadows throughout the day.
Congratulations to Lizzie and Lucy who have both been trying super hard in all lessons, it was impossible to separate them! Grace was our pupil of the week and Charlie's were our table winners this week. Four pen licenses were given out this week so the handwriting has really been improving - keep it up!

Article Title
This article explores the role early educational environments play in shaping a child's first school experiences. The authors call for more intentional support and consideration of early childhood environments and the possibilities for the positive developmental outcomes they provide. Review of the current literature on quality early childhood settings, discussion of the variables that are key agents in promoting a quality early childhood setting and experience for young children, and a case study of a quality preschool environment is highlighted to illustrate and support this argument. Advocacy for authentic early childhood experiences in quality preschool classrooms provides a strong foundation for redefining educational practices and is necessary if we are to provide a foundation for future development and positive outcomes for all children.

The Emergence of the American. Occasional Paper No. 6.
Morgan, Edmund S.
The essay provides background material for a junior high school unit, The Emergence of the New American. The unit deals with the colonial period in America in terms of the evolution of the political American. Separate sections of the paper discuss the format of the course, the Englishman in the 17th century, the lure of the new world, changes over the generations in the new world, slavery, the influence of geographical differences in North and South in shaping people's lives, the old colonial system, and royal government in America. The final section of the paper traces the conditions which gave rise to American political attitudes. The author notes that even though early settlers patterned their governments after English Parliament, a very different kind of government and attitude toward government existed. Since government in the colonies was everybody's business, it lost the sanctity and awe with which it had been surrounded in England. A table of contents of the four-part unit is included. Some titles in Part I include: What Motivated Englishmen to Plant Colonies in America?; On New England; and On Virginia. Part II presents Bodo, the Life of a Medieval Peasant, and two articles on Virginia. Part III is the game, Empire (see SO 012 054), and Part IV covers the New American, sections of Samuel Sewall's diary, readings about an indentured servant, a slave, George Washington, and the conflict between the colonial assemblies and the royal governors.

text: Brenda has been playing the piano nearly all her life. She was whisked off to piano lessons at the tender age of 5 when her mother discovered little Brenda plunking out "Jesus Loves Me" on the family piano. She took piano lessons all through high school, played for Sunday services and church choirs, and then took a brief hiatus to obtain an English degree. At UNCC, Brenda played for the University orchestra as well as serving as an accompanist for various musicians and singers. Brenda then auditioned for and was accepted into the UT-Austin Music School, where she studied with Prof. Nancy Garrett for 3 years. She continued to accompany singers, instrumentalists, and small groups. Over the years, Brenda taught piano lessons and participated in various musical activities here and there. She currently teaches piano lessons at The Hill Country Sound Situation, plays for Sunday services and the choir at Blanco United Methodist Church, and accompanies the Blanco County Community Choir and the Canyon Lake High School choir. She was recently hired to accompany the Wimberley Community Choir for their Spring 2015 concert season. All of these musical endeavors are extremely enjoyable to Brenda, and she especially enjoys teaching her students at Sound Situation.

Assalamualaikum and Peace be upon all of you..
Thanks again for viewing my blog.
Today is the nomination process for the Kuala Terengganu by-elections. This by-election is done after the previous holder of Kuala Terengganu Parliamentary seat died. After the nomination closed, it is confirmed that 3 candidate will participate in the elections.
This three-corner fight is between Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh (BN), Mohd Abdul Wahid Endut (PAS), and Azharuddin Mamat (Independent).
As an observer, I will not said anything about the qualification of each candidate. I only wished all the best for all of them. Whoever been choose to become the new MP, they should already realized that they are the representetives for Kuala Terengganu in the Parliament. And for the voters in Kuala Terengganu, please vote a candidate that can actually work for you. Do not vote for those who participate for individual reason.
It is undeniable that this by-elections are very important for both BN and PAS.
Barisan Nasional (National Front) :
This by-elections will become a refference point for the National Front. Already suffers a major setback in 2008 elections, and also lost in the Permatang Pauh by-elections, it is their second chance to proof that they still have a support from the Malaysians. If they lost in this elections, the National Front must take a serious actions to improve the weakness of the party.
Unlike the Permatang Pauh, the National Front wins in Kuala Terengganu 2008 general elections.
PAS (Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party) :
This by-election also play a major role for PAS. As the most senior oppositions party, win the elections play a significant value for PAS to have more voice in Parliament. In the 2008 elections, PAS successfully formed a government in Kelantan and Kedah.

It is easy to understand how "churlish" has come to mean "vulgar," "surly," and "intractable" if you know your English history. In Anglo-Saxon England a churl, or ceorl, was a freeman of the lowest rank who owned and cultivated a small farm. He had certain rights and had the upward mobility to rise to the rank of thane. After the Norman Conquest, however, many churls became serfs, and the word churl eventually came to be used as a pejorative for a rude, ill-bred person.
First Known Use: before 12th century
in the meaning defined at sense 1See Words from the same year
couth, cultivated, polished, refined, sophisticated, well-bred;
classy, courtly, genteel, gentlemanly, ladylike;
coarse, ill-bred, uncultivated, unpolished, unrefined, unsophisticated;
discourteous, impolite, mannerless, rude, uncivil, ungracious, unmannerly;
: not polite

Lieutenant Colonel John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming "Jack" Churchill, nicknamed "Fighting Jack Churchill" and "Mad Jack", was an English soldier who fought throughout World War II armed with a longbow, arrows, and a claybeg (a mediaeval edged weapon used in Scotland, considered the smaller counterpart of the claymore). He once said "any officer who goes into action without his sword is improperly dressed."
Churchill resumed his commission after Poland was invaded, volunteering for the Commandos after fighting at Dunkirk. Churchill was unsure what Commando Duty entailed, but he signed up because "it sounded dangerous". In May 1940, Churchill and his unit, the Manchester Regiment, ambushed a German patrol near L'Epinette, France. Churchill gave the signal to attack by cutting down the enemy Feldwebel (sergeant) with his barbed arrows, becoming the only known British soldier to have felled an enemy with a longbow in the course of the war.
Churchill was second in command on a raid on the German garrison at Vågsøy, Norway on December 27, 1941. As the ramps fell on the first landing craft, Churchill leapt forward from his position playing The March of the Cameron Men on bagpipes, threw a grenade, and began running towards the bay.
In July 1943, as commanding officer, he led a squad from their landing site at Catania in Sicily with his trademark claybeg slung around his waist and a longbow and arrows around his neck and his bagpipes under his arm. This was again repeated at the landings at Salerno.
In 1944, he led the Commandos in Yugoslavia, where he was ordered to raid the German held island of Brač. He organised a motley army of 1,500 Partisans, 43 Commando troop and 40 Commando troop for the raid. The landing was unopposed, but the Partisans decided to defer the attack until the following day. The following morning, one flanking attack was launched by 43 Commando with Churchill leading the elements from 40 Commando. The Partisans remained at the landing area. Only Churchill and six others managed to reach the objective. A mortar shell killed or wounded everyone but Churchill, who was playing "Will Ye No Come Back Again?" on his pipes as the Germans advanced to capture them. He was knocked unconscious by grenades and captured. He was later flown to Berlin for interrogation and then transferred to Sachsenhausen concentration camp.
In September 1944, he and an RAF officer crawled under the wire through an abandoned drain and set out to walk to the Baltic coast; they were recaptured near the coastal city of Rostock, only a few miles from the sea. In late April 1945 Churchill was transferred to Tyrol together with about 140 other prominent concentration camp inmates, where the SS left the prisoners behind. After the departure of the Germans he walked 150 miles to Verona, Italy where he met the American forces. From there, Churchill was sent to Burma, but by the time he reached India, Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been bombed, and the war abruptly ended. Churchill was said to be unhappy with the abrupt end of the war, saying: "If it wasn't for those damn Yanks, we could have kept the war going another 10 years!"
He finally retired from the army in 1959, with two awards of the Distinguished Service Order. In later years, Churchill served as an instructor at the land-air warfare school in Australia, where he became a passionate devotee of the surfboard. Back in England, he was the first man to ride the River Severn's five-foot tidal bore and designed his own board.

I started dating a guy about a month ago. I really like him and am interested in seeing where it goes, except for one thing: He's a 36-year-old virgin who's waiting until marriage to have sex. I've been sexually active for well over a decade, and I feel like this is too big of a difference to overcome. Plus, if we do become serious, I'm not willing to wait until marriage to find out if we're sexually compatible. Do I dump him or give it some time? Or try to convince him that waiting isn't necessarily the best idea?
