Practical Perspective: WIOA Meets Assistive Technology
The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is a landmark legislation. It has been designed to strengthen and improve our workforce system and assist youth and adults with significant barriers to:
- Enter high-quality jobs and careers
- Assist employers to hire and retain skilled workers
- Match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy
The purpose behind WIOA is to find more effective ways to help people return to the workforce who face barriers to employment. WIOA was signed into law in July 2014. Find your WIOA State Plan and to see how your state is implementing this federal law on the United States Department of Education website.
This blog will share information related to the Assistive Technology Act programs designed to improve states' abilities to access assistive technology for people with disabilities so that they can be successful in the workplace.
WIOA Sections 412 & 414
- Vocational rehabilitation services may include ''the establishment, development, or improvement of assistive technology demonstration, loan, reutilization, or financing programs in coordination with activities to promote access to assistive technology for individuals with disabilities and employers."
- The Administration for Community Living shall ensure that programs funded under this act will address the needs of individuals with disabilities of all ages, whether the individuals will use the assistive technology to obtain or maintain employment, to obtain education, or for other reasons.
- The Association of Assistive Technology Programs (ATAP) prepared a helpful comparison of Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and WIOA of 2014 on their website.
- The intent for this section of WIOA is to develop a more formal working relationship between state assistive technology programs and vocational rehabilitation, given the critical role they play in delivering vocational services to clients who need assistive technology to achieve or maintain employment.
Congressional Intent Youth in Transition
- Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) has an enhanced role in serving youth earlier in high school.
- Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) must be provided by schools in collaboration with VR for youth in school.
- Check out this example of funding for Pre-ETS programs for students with visual impairments in Massachusetts.
- Check out this example for assistive/rehabilitation technology and auxiliary aids and services provided through Pre-ETS in Wisconsin.
Assistive Technology Loan Libraries
- Universities, agencies, schools, and independent living centers maintain loan libraries so people with disabilities can try out various AT devices before purchasing.
- Here is an example of Wisconsin schools and their assistive technology library: http://www.atlclibrary.org/
- Find your state assistive technology contact on this website: https://www.ataporg.org/programs
Pre-Employment Transition Services (Pre-ETS) and Assistive Technology
It is a collaborative responsibility of school, vocational rehabilitation, and long-term support agencies to provide Pre-ETS to students, ages 14-21. It is a great opportunity to ensure students have access to meaningful career planning to help with the seamless transition from high school to employment or post-secondary training. Your state vocational rehabilitation agency must spend 15% of their annual budget on Pre-ETS for students in school! Assistive technology can be part of those expenditures to support students with disabilities in employment.
The 5 required activities under Pre-ETS are:
1.) Job exploration counseling
2.) Work-based learning experiences
3.) Counseling on opportunities for transition or post-secondary educational or higher education programs
4.) Workplace readiness training to develop social skills and independent living (home and community)
5.) Instruction in self-advocacy, which may include peer mentoring
Assistive technology is specifically mentioned in a few of the required activities:
- #2 Work-based learning experiences
- AT and adaptive aids to provide more independence at the workplace
- #3 Counseling on opportunities for transition or post-secondary educational or higher education programs
- AT support for training programs, certificates, apprenticeships, and associate's and bachelor's degrees
- Develop an AT profile of needed modifications and accommodations for education, training, and employment
- #4 Workplace readiness training to develop social skills and independent living
- Identify and learn how to use assistive technology in the workplace
- Develop individual transportation plans and learn necessary mobility skills
Thanks so much for your interest in WIOA. Email [email protected] for more information.

Looking for Fishing Guide Service? Consider the Following Factors.
Before you go for offshore fishing spare sometime and look for a fishing guide service to go with. There are several fishing guide companies, ensure you choose a reputable one. It can be very risky to go with the wrong fishing guide service, in case anything wrong they will not have the necessary skills to handle the situation. Look out for the qualities below when choosing a fishing guide service.
When looking for fishing guide services, the best place to start is asking for recommendations from people you know that have used such services in the past. In case the people in your circle had a good experience, they will recommend the company to you.
Most importantly, don't forget to check if the company you have settled for has been licensed. Ensure you are dealing with a licensed company by asking them for proof of licensing. Also, check if the company has insurance, in case anything goes wrong during the offshore fishing you will be covered. It is important to also check if the company is a member of any professional association or affiliate in the field.
Another thing you should look out for its testimonies from the fishing guide past clients on their website. Reputable companies will always have positive customer testimonies. Another place you should check for reviews its on trusted websites and forums online. If a fishing guide has any unresolved cases with their past clients, these sites will post those complains. If there any negative reviews on the fishing guide, that's a red flag and you should avoid dealing with the company.
Another thing you should look out for it's the duration of time the company has been in the industry. It is advisable to choose a company that has been in the industry for several years. An experience fishing guide services will offer you good service compared to a new company in the industry. An established fishing guide service will have the necessary tools that are required for offshore fishing.
Another thing you should not forget to check, its whether the guides at the fishing company have the necessary qualifications. A reputable fishing guide services will ensure their staff are well trained.
Does the company have any references? A reputable fishing guide service should not have a problem in giving you the contact details of their past clients. The kind of feedback you get from the fishing guide service past clients will help you in making a decision if you should deal with the company or not.
Cost is another factor you should consider. When you use the services of a fishing guide, you will be required to pay them, different guides will charge you differently. Choose a company that will offer you their services at a reasonable price, without compromising on quality.
Charter: 10 Mistakes that Most People Make

Simon informed me that the "Ruptured Budgie Rally" was coming up mid May.
I put the weekend in my calendar and started packing kit.
I met Bob on his Triumph at sunrise and we travelled up to Macksville to meet Simon.
It was a crisp, clear day and perfect for riding.
We soon passed Bellingen and headed up the Waterfall Way to Dorrigo.
Simon and Bob set a cracking pace as they usually do.
It's double yellow lines most of the way, and I got slowed behind a truck and car.
I had noted a little black car behind me, but I couldnt see it in my mirrors and with a quick head check.
I was still in the double yellows at this point and preparing to overtake when they broke.
I'd been indicating a pass before this and moved right to over take.
Imagine my surprise when the black mitsubishi overtook me, the truck and the car as well.
The car continued up the road at a great rate, using the whole road and fuck the double lines.
He got stuck at a roadworks and I rode up and enquired why he had attempted to kill me.
He stated that "He had plenty of room" to overtake us all in one hit.
I questioned his logic, poor manners and parentage as well as the fact that he'd started his overtaking manuever well before the broken lines.
My next question was if he intended to attempt to kill me once more once I left in front of him.
No was the answer.
Autumn is colouring the leaves up here in Dorrigo.
The blue sky made an azure backdrop for the leaves.
North of Dorrigo we turned onto the Armidale Tyrimgham Road.
Its narrow, windy and rugged.
I thought to myself, beauty. Simon and Bob might slow down a little now.
Being as they are slaves to the nicotine, it only takes half a smoke and Im there anyway.
Arriving in Grafton, it was time for lunch.
We found a little organic Cafe called Alchemy with a jazz band playing.
The food was great and the tunes groovy. Highly recommended
We headed west on the Gwydir Highway into the Gibraltar Range.
Some nice views from up here.
This bloke on the DR650 happily cruised along with us at 140kmh.
It wasnt working to hard at it either.
We fueled at Glen Innes, and bought some beer at Tenterfield.
The last stretch of the Bruxner Highway was knocked over in short order.
The rally site was situated slapbang on the NSW-Queensland border in the Dumaresq Riverbed.
We rode through the site until we found the Nevilles.
Simons dad is a proud member of the Nevillution.
There were some nices machines to be observed.
Once the tents where up, we proceeded to the good part.
I won an engraved bottle of Stones Mac in the high card draw, and promptly passed it around.
Then we did a walkaround and checked out the bikes.
This M2 Buell is the same as the one I took round Tassie last October.

Just listening to the last one, I noticed that the Aztec songs were playing superfast compared to how they sound on my PAL SMS2. Is this likely due to differences between NTSC/PAL in the VGM player you use Jacko?
The other thought I had is you should post a playguide/playlist to the site so we have a breakdown of what all the songs were that played during a particular show.
HmmmPosted: Tue Feb 12, 2008 8:26 am
Hey DJBass,
I have the plugin set to 60Hz, on next weeks show im going to start that debate and I would love to hear some listeners opinions via skype or something so everyone add scottjacko87 to your Skype and ill bounce between users. Heehhh.
Also im slack, I will do up some nice show notes for everyone of the songs that were played.
Also does anyone here think its a good idea to create a backup archive on disc and ill send it to someone?? (all the shows in uncompressed goodness)
|Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 2:45 am
Hey Everyone
Episode 9 This show is a little different
|Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 11:49 am
|I guess the next step would be a 24/7 recorded show that you could put onto your facebook page.
|Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 7:02 am
Who said I have a facebook?
|Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 11:58 am
When I said "your" I didn't mean you Jacko. I was talking to everyone.
On social sites you can place a bit of code to have your favourite radio station playing. So I thought a SMS Radio station on these sites would be cool. The next stage.
|Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 1:04 pm
Oh thats a neato idea franku, thanks for that, ill have a look into it in the morning. I do however happen to have a Facebook and also im on last.fm
|Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2008 9:31 am
So is the show going to be geared towards giving laughs now? (me hopes so)
Also, I don't think your use of 'propensity' was casual enough to warrant a special surprise I still haven't though of :p
|Posted: Wed Feb 27, 2008 2:04 pm
arg pew, yeah more laughs is good, DMEnduro listened to the last ep in his car, I thought to myself if he crashes his car from laughing too hard i dont want the insurace claim rocking up in my letter box. Nah just kidding. The show is going to have a change, ill explain it soon enough.
Episode 10!Posted: Fri Feb 29, 2008 3:50 am
Hey Folks,
Here is Episode 10 This show is way cooler then last weeks show, but there are the changes in the show mentioned in the show. Theres also lame jokes and of course lots of SMS music.
Thanks to Maxim for some cool ideas, your feedback was greatly appreciated. Also the links in previous posts need editing as I have re-named all the files :D
Shownotes are coming, im a lazy bum with this sort of stuff, hehe.
Thanks again for the continued support.
Your loyal host,

Hey All,
Sorry no show in a while, uni is simply a lot of work, and its imperative I keep on top of the work. However next Friday I plan to do a special easter show, so has anyone got any nice ideas that are easter themed for the show??
Thanks all
|Posted: Sun Mar 30, 2008 8:54 pm
|Yes a Easter sshow would be cool, what about also a smspower music competition show , it could contain all best musics since the contest exists :)
|Posted: Mon Mar 31, 2008 8:17 am
Yes vbt I plan on doing that in a couple of weeks.
I am really sorry folks uni study is just too much for me and I just dont have the time to squeeze in the shows. Holidays are soon though (I finish next Friday) so be sure to keep an ear out on this thread and the IRC channel for more info.
|Posted: Mon Mar 31, 2008 9:46 pm
I will try to broadcast once my PC is repaired.
*mumbles something about hard drives, PSU's and bad computerstores*
|Posted: Tue Apr 01, 2008 7:27 am
Ah cool Steve, we should work one day doing a show together, we could do it through Skype or simillar :P Even if its only a podcast only show I think it would still be rather cool to have 2 hosts.
|Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2008 5:49 pm
|And then? Argue about which song to play? ;)
|Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2008 10:07 pm
Yeah sure why not, nah we would come to some form of agreement before we transmitted. I got uni break in a week or so, so I think then would be a cool time to do a tandom show.
NEW SHOWS COMINGPosted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 2:43 pm
Hey All,
Just posting quickly to let you all know that on Wednesday there will be another show... Finally..
Some drafts on the menu at the moment
- Moog Cookbook
- 2008 Music competition discussion
- Jazz themed SMS music
I will also be talking about the process I went through on how I created my music entries, and also be talking about some of the latest news about the site and last but not least will be talking about my SMS saga and how its finally come to an end.
This week I would love to have someone do an interview. What would be cool is if someone who did a music competition entry could come on and perhaps chat about the processes they went through in creating their musical masterpieces.
I look forward to your patronage during the live broadcast.
All the best folks,
Re: NEW SHOWS COMINGPosted: Sat Apr 12, 2008 5:39 pm
My word, you make it sound like you're leaving us.
Re: NEW SHOWS COMINGPosted: Sat Apr 12, 2008 11:47 pm
Me leave?? nah that will never happen, but yes it does sound like I am leaving. But on a serious note I will not be leaving. By SMS saga I mean the extensive repairs it needed due to my stupidity :)
|Posted: Sat Apr 12, 2008 11:54 pm
|Ahhhhhh, your SMS is about to bite the dust? :(
|Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 4:05 am
|Let's hope I get some proper internet by the next show.
|Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 6:23 am
I plan to do the show on Wednesday, but at the moment my bandwidth is on 90% so I am rationing my internet, look forward to transmitting.
|Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 4:09 pm
|So did you do the show yet?
|Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 10:30 pm
No Maxim I did not, but good news is I have had a time table change at university which leaves Fridays completely free, I assure you that I want to do the show but simply ran out of time during the break.. I sincerely apollogise.
|Posted: Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:42 am
Yep I have done the show now
Episode 11
|Posted: Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:02 pm
I'm listening now, and you were right at one point after you were playing your entries. I thought to myself "what would Jacko say if I said that song needs more cowbell," in jest.
By the way, to figure out what the HECK it is about the cowbell joke, please read up on this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/More_cowbell
Cowbell explained!
Mooooooooo. Donk Donk Donk.

I will take the totally screwed up option, so you say it like moge (I know its not spelt correctly, but is that how you say it)?

Hey All,
Episode 12
This has an interview and revenge of the cowbell
|Posted: Fri May 02, 2008 8:27 am
|I was thinking Jacko that your show is very well suited to a podcast format, all you need is a RSS feed on the site so clients know where and how to download each show as you roll them out.
|Posted: Fri May 02, 2008 2:38 pm
Thanks for the idea, ill have a chat with Steve and see what we can come up with.
Remember our website is http://radio.smspower.org and you can get all the shows on the downloads page.
Re: Episode 12Posted: Fri May 02, 2008 4:02 pm
Woah, that was quick :P
Listening to it now and all I can say is
Yes, Cowbell Got!
Go Will Ferrell
And go barfing man:
huaaaaaaaaaaghhhhh *slop slop slop*
And for the true joke of the cowbell and all it's hideousness the SNL gag is here http://www.funnyhub.com/videos/pages/snl-more-cowbell.html
Couldn't find one on YouTube, the SNL production keeps taking it off for copyright reasons.
And yes, the game Rock Band, pulls the cowbell gag too.

Just as you were all thinking the show is dead, it isn't :P

Today's show was 70 minutes jammed full of music, hope you enjoy it. This I think in my mind has been the longest show and one of the better shows for music.

We are in the process of hopefully soon sorting out our own shoutcast server so just hang in there with the free server for one more show!
Heres the IP for todays show:

Hey Folks,
Episode 14 (38.8MB)
This is the longest show, coming in at 80:30, its jammed full of music like the last show and actually has quite a sizeable interview with one of the forum members. Please also see the Trivia Topic to post your answers for the trivia questions in the show.
Comments and suggestions please post either in this topic or drop us an email: firstname.lastname@example.com :)

|Oh, and we've also updated our website at http://radio.smspower.org. It's all Web 2.0-y now, and looks good on every browser, including Firefox 3 and Safari.
|Posted: Thu Nov 13, 2008 11:01 am
There's a few glitches in the site, actually.
- The shoutbox text is clipped (and looks nasty with ClearType) unless I remove the 0.9999 opacity CSS. This is presumably some library you're using for the fade-in.
- The shoutbox code is being served as an embedded <HTML> tag (I guess you just server-side-included it somehow) which degrades OK but is nasty.
- .shoutbox-list{max-width: 100px;} wastes space and screws up the fade
- What time is 12:8:46?
- Spot the problem with justified text in the "A few kinks to iron out" post.
- One table per row for the shows page? When it could (should) all be done with DIVs instead?
- "Eipsode"
- What happened to the show notes page? I know there weren't any on the old site either but at least they had a stub.
- Is "bliip" Dutch for "blip"? (Or even "Blipp"?)
- Might be nice to serve M3U/PLS files pointing at the MP3s so people can click and listen immediately; or even Flash players to listen in-browser.
|Posted: Thu Nov 13, 2008 2:08 pm
Maxim, some nice ideas.
At the moment im actually going through the shows. I plan to list the songs that are played in each show and at what time within the show they occur.
the m3u idea is also very cool, I will look into that. Also, I want to look at you know how albums have the little art thingo in some mp3s how do you do that??
And gah my stupid spelling errors, thats what you get for doing things with lack of sleep, ill go over it tomorrow while im at the LAN party with my mates, ill have time on my hands.
But thanks for the nitpick things Maxim, its needed in order to make a more professional result.
|Posted: Thu Nov 13, 2008 2:52 pm
|Album art is a JPG file embedded in the ID3 tag. I suggest Mp3tag for control over what ends up in there.

Winter squash includes squash varieties, such as acorn, butternut, turban and buttercup. Winter squash should be harvested before the first frost and should have thick rinds. They will store longer if a couple inches of stem is left on when harvesting. In addition, winter squash that are already bruised or have severe cuts will not store as long as those in near perfect condition when harvested or purchased.
Cure winter squash, except for acorn squash, in warm temperatures for 3 to 10 days. Temperatures that are between 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit with relative humidity of 80 to 85 percent are ideal. Curing will heal any cuts or abrasions caused during harvesting.
Move winter squash into cooler temperatures in an area with good circulation. Temperatures near 50 degrees Fahrenheit with relative humidity of 70 to 80 percent will yield a longer storage life. Your garage, crawl space or attic may work well.
Place a layer of straw on the ground or store on shelves. Do not stack winter squash and don't store directly on the ground where humidity tends to be higher.
Check on your winter squash often. Once they begin to soften, they should be used immediately. Depending on which kind you have, expect acorn squash to stay fresh for 5 to 8 weeks, butternut squash to stay fresh for 2 to 4 months, and turban and buttercup squash to stay fresh for 3 to 6 months.

Three years have gone by. I sat at my kitchen table in my apartment. The sun shines through the window, sharing it's light and warmth across my shoulder, arms and table. It's cold outside, so I welcome it's rays of sunshiny warmth like being wrapped in a cozy blanket.
"This is building up your faith and trust in the Lord."
"Just believe."
These phrases mixed with others got thrown around as I shared my struggles with other Christian women. My heart and strength were crushed and I was looking for a Titus 2 woman to give me advice and mentor me.
I longed for Spring. A change in the season meant warmer days, trees budding with new life, colorful red and blue birds singing their cheerful melodies and I ache for a newness to spring up in me too.
It's been three years, but I sense a change coming. I can't put my finger on it, but it feels like Spring. I'm thankful for changes in the seasons, because it reminds me that there is a season for everything. Seasons come and go. This dark season in my life has an end. A new season of growth, healing and God's glory is coming. Soon!
The enemy cannot destroy us, he can only distract us. Click To Tweet
This season of winter, I'm done with it. It carried me farther than I wanted to go, deeper than I've ever been, and hurt more than I have words to express. But it didn't destroy me. I feel it distracted me from what I wanted to be doing during this time of my life.
Or maybe, God had me walk through this to make me be still in Him. Refocusing. Surrendered to Him. Lifting my eyes to His Glory, allowing Him to shine His light and love on me, like the sun warming my kitchen.
God brought the right women into my life at the exact time I needed it. He perfectly orchestrated these friendships. And I couldn't be more grateful.
I've learned about Faith and Trust in the Lord. And how it's a moment by moment event. Always active or it doesn't exist.
Stepping out in faith, peeking my head out from under the blanket. Tired. Exhausted really. But If I didn't reach out in faith to grab onto God's Hand, this heavy black blanket would suffocate me.

Be blessed,

I won't be backing down on my views regarding the case against me. I will not be cooperating in any shape or form. I am trying to get therapy etc. Therefore, I am trying my best to make up for everything. I have apologised and tried to get all involved to know what has occurred. I also paid the victims compensation £400 in full. However, they all refuse to work together to sort it out. I did what I need to do, but after that, they added more charges to my name. Most likely these charges are new laws that have been enacted and the system is trying to use them.
I will NEVER be going to that court. If it takes years to get others to see sense. Then I'm prepared to be stubborn for that long. I will be continually sticking to my position. I'm not contacting the person. That is what others want. Therefore, persecuting me is not fair. Others wanted what they wanted. I'm doing what they wanted. Others are now being unfair holding things against me that weren't all my fault. I'm told that I should have empathy towards how others feel. That works both ways. I see the others point of views, however, they're refusing to see mine. I'm being put through things that I do not deserve. This is the bottom line. I am punished for my feelings too. I have to stick up for myself. I no longer want to let others just walk all over me because I'm different. I've let that happen the whole of my life.

The Associated Press via Yahoo! Sports - Scoring has been an issue in all but one match for the New York Red Bulls, and Sporting Kansas City typically isn't the club to fix that against. Add in health concerns on the back line, and Saturday's meeting at Red Bull Arena might not be the night for the Supporters' Shield holders to expunge any doubt provided by a disappointing first month. Kansas City (3-1-0), meanwhile, enters the weekend...

The Brutal Brigade, one of the newest Orders to grace the lands of Irenberg, which in turn is one of the newest Kingdoms to grace the realm, are going through growing pains.
Since the inception of Irenberg, they have been knee deep in conflict, a conflict that has seen many of their fellow brethren beaten, battered, or worse, slain. This has taken a toll on the Order as a whole, but still, they have managed to maintain their position within the top five ranking Orders within the Kingdom. A noble feat, especially given the extreme conflict they have witnessed in such a short period.
This has been in large part due to the strong leadership of LadyNic, who has stood up to the countless bullies, who have tried to move in on the Brutal Brigades lands and place their members under their rule by force. Orders have learned the hard way that these actions will not be tolerated. Unfortunately, as we have seen so many times before, all good things must come to an end.
The leadership within the Brutal Brigade began to gyrate and change erratically, which was noticed by many of the rank and file members within the Order, but the reasoning was at first unknown.
As could be seen, the leadership title changed from numerous members, back to LadyNic within a matter of a few short days. Something apparently was going on within the top ranks of the Brutal Brigade, and soon all would be made known.
As is often the cause, strategic issues began to take precedent and LadyNic was forced to step down, for the good of the Order as a whole. This was a noble act, by a brave and fearless warrior, doing what was best for the Order as a whole.
LadyNic is still within the ranks of the Brutal Brigade and fighting alongside those she helped grow and prosper, but a new leadership has taken charge. Lord Dizzy and 3Pic-Fail have taken the reigns and are now helping push the Order to new limits.
Immediately, this effort was noticed as Lord Dizzy whipped members into shape who were breaking the Order's rules, rules that have been put in place to prevent unneeded and unnecessary bloodshed and war—two things that they do not need at the moment as they focus on growing their ranks and their Citadel.
Everyone noticed the results. The Order was able to come together and surpass numerous difficult-to-achieve checkpoints in some of their most recent events. These accomplishments yielded enormous rewards for all members within the Brutal Brigade and had a multiplying effect that will benefit everyone immensely in the days to come.
It is yet to be seen what is to become of the Brutal Brigade moving forward under their new leadership. But from what we have seen here at the Chronicle in recent days, we believe that many more victories and much more greatness are yet to come their way.

Safety & Health Practionier (SHP) reports on Cortexica's new research centred on the improper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) has cost businesses around £79bn in the last year alone.
Safety & Health Practitioner quoted findings from our our recent research study and the subsequent white paper: Overcoming the barriers of PPE compliance with the use of artificial intelligence
"The report by the AI company Cortexica claims the vast majority (84%) of businesses operating in a high-risk environment lost money from injuries due to PPE non-compliance in the last year.
According to the research, almost a third (30%) of those businesses lost more than £250,000 and 5% lost more than £1m. It also found that around 29% of workplace injuries last year in companies operating in high-risk environments could have been prevented through the proper use of PPE."

A makeshift "flamethrower" was used in a terrifying attack on a teenager by a man who threatened to hit him if he did not hand over a cigarette.
The 16-year-old boy's face was set alight using an aerosol can and a lighter as he was walking home from a friend's house on Saturday night.
Luckily the victim only suffered minor injuries but the intent was there to cause some serious harm.
A man reportedly approached a group of three youths on Johnson Road, Marton, before singling out the victim and saying: "Give me a fag in five seconds or I'll hit you."
Detectives say he then started to count down from five before producing the improvised weapon and attacking the teen.
Several neighbours today told The Gazette they had been shocked to learn of the horrific attack just outside their homes – although none had witnessed it themselves.
Det Sgt Kathryn Riley, of Blackpool CID, said: "A group of youths have been approached by a male who has assaulted one of them and used an aerosol and lighter to make a custom-made flamethrower.
"Luckily the victim only suffered minor injuries but the intent was there to cause some serious harm."
Police say the attacker had been kicking on the doors of homes on the street before he approached the three young people.
The victim, who was treated at hospital for burns to his face, told police he was making his way home from a friend's house when the attack took place, at around 11.50pm on Saturday.
According to police who spoke to the teen, the offender started speaking to the victim and claimed to know one of his friends.
However he quickly turned aggressive, threatening violence if the teen did not hand over a cigarette in five seconds.
Det Sgt Riley said: "He demanded a cigarette and then started a countdown.
"We believe the offender had been kicking at doors along Johnson Road at the time.
"We are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area who saw anything. There would have been four people on the street – the victim, two witnesses and the offender."
Police arrested a man on suspicion of attempted wounding over the weekend.
The 24-year-old, from Blackpool, denied the offence when quizzed by police yesterday and was last night released on police bail.
Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101.

Applied Insight Receives Appraisal as CMMI Level 3 Maturity Organization
WASHINGTON, April 13, 2018 — Applied Insight, a leading technology firm empowering customers across defense, intelligence and federal civilian communities with failsafe mission solutions, announced today it has been appraised at Level 3 of the CMMI Institute's Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) for Professional Services. The appraisal was conducted by ProcessWorks, Inc., working together with Bob Pomietto, Applied Insight's senior quality assurance manager and a longstanding CMMI member.
"Our CMMI Maturity Level 3 rating is a great achievement for our team and an important milestone that reflects our well-established process discipline," said Greg Walker, president of Applied Insight. "These processes are at the heart of our 'Accountable Innovation' approach to solving technology problems for customers. They commit us to assuming full responsibility for the ability of the systems we design and operate to effectively serve the people who need them to do their jobs better. It's an approach that our people embrace and our customers value."
"At AI, we believe that technology is never an end in itself. Its true power rests in its value to people working in specific contexts with unique goals," said Michael Kelleher, AI's chief operations officer. "Technology has to be developed and applied in ways that reflect how those people work and what they are seeking to achieve. The processes we follow are geared to that objective, and we are proud to have them recognized in this way as part of our commitment to continuous process improvement."
CMMI is a capability improvement approach that provides organizations with the essential elements of effective processes that improve their performance. CMMI, a registered trademark of Carnegie Mellon University, is a collection of best practices designed to promote improved performance in any organization. It is considered a global standard for efficiency.
An appraisal at Maturity Level 3 indicates the organization is performing at a "defined" level. At this level, processes — which are described in standards, procedures, tools and methods — are well characterized and understood. The organization's set of standard processes, which is the basis for Maturity Level 3, is established and improved over time.

How To Create A Killer CV/Resume
We create and receive a lot of CV/Resumes/Profiles at gro
.team so I guess we're getting pretty good at judging what a great profile looks like, and what helps the author really stand out from the crowd.
Job boards, LinkedIn
etc can be a good source of jobs but they don't filter very much (both ways) so how can you rise above the noise in people's inboxes/feeds?
I'm going to apply a lot of what
Amine Bellaoud talks out in his excellent article about
here because at the end of the day creating and presenting a CV/Resume/Profile is
Make The CV/Resume/Profile Look Err…Nice
The CV/Resume/Profile is a marketing document so it needs to be well presented and look err…nice.
If you can't be bothered to present yourself well in such an important document can you really be trusted to represent someone else's team or company?
Below is one of gro.team's
growth hacking
profiles and one that isn't.
What do you think? Which one looks more interesting and makes you want to read it?
The Use Of Photos
I know not everyone will agree but I think profiles should include photos.
There is a lot of evidence to suggest that a photo of a person's face is the thing most likely to get our attention in a stream of information.
It could be argued that the use of photos increases the potential for discrimination though so I wouldn't necessarily see it as a negative signal if someone chose not to include a photo.
Use Colour, Contrast and Differently Sized Content
Three factors (colour, orientation and size) are additive in terms of getting our attention. (
). More factors will grab more attention so ideally you should use all three.
Testimonials aka Recommendations aka Reviews
All the gro.team profiles include testimonials for very good reasons.
There is a lot of evidence to suggest that people trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations. It is very important to present recommendations as early and often as you can.
It is pretty straightforward to ask your connections for recommendations on LinkedIn these days.
The Three Boxes Of Greatness (™)
At gro.team we review profiles against three main criteria of
⍏ "
Technical" Skills
Impact Focus
Being A Team Player
"Technical" Skills
"Technical" skills are the competencies you use to perform a role. If you're a Developer they might me coding in a specific language, if you're a Marketeer they might be paid for search, if you're a scrum master they might include running stand ups or whatever. We have sections like "Expertise" in the gro.team profiles to highlight technical skills. You need to make sure you present evidence that you have the necessary tools in your tool box for the role but don't overdo it…see Impact Focus below.
Impact Focus
It's really important that you present as someone who wants to have an impact for a team/business focuses on the "what" not the "how". Yes it's great that you know how to run Google PPC campaigns but what results did you achieve with them? What were the business results of what you did? We have "Delivery" sections in the gro.team profiles to highlight these achievements.
Being A Team Player
These days ticking the other two boxes but being what
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings called a "brilliant jerk" will stop you getting hired by great companies. As he said: "Some companies tolerate them. For us, the cost to effective teamwork is too high." We have sections like "Relationships" in the gro.team profiles so that we can demonstrate that being a good team player is important to the people in our network.
Make sure you tick all these boxes in your profile.
How long should the CV/Profile/Resume Be?
All the gro.team profiles are one page.
We never, ever present a profile that is longer than that. Why? Because we need to show we can summarise the important information in a context and not just present a stream of uncurated facts.
I guess two pages would be OK but I would argue any longer than that is counterproductive. Show that you have taken the time to write a short profile.
Which Format Should You Use?
Our profiles at gro.team are normally in Adobe PDF format. Nearly all platforms and devices can read a .pdf file these days. (Google can and does index .pdfs but it definitely prefers other formats like HTML if you are a creating a document specifically for search engines).
Make your CV/Resume/Profile look good, use testimonials, keep it short and tick the the Three Boxes Of Greatness…
If you create a CV/Resume/Profile that is interesting to look at, ticks the "Three Boxes Of Greatness", is concise and informative you
maximise your chances of being selected for the next stage of the hiring process.
Good luck!

If your life has been affected in a negative way by pornography or sexual addiction, we understand. We have felt what you feel. We won't tell you that you're crazy or to just "get over it." We share hearts along with experience, strength and hope. We listen, we care, we empathize but we don't tell you what you should do. Together we try to work on our own lives within our specific situations, and to grow in relationship with God.
NLP was founded in 1997 as an email discussion group and this continues as our primary focus. We share our stories, our experiences, strength, and hope with each other via a Groups.io private group. Groups.io acts as our listserver, accumulating our messages in a forum where members can read and respond on the internet, but also allowing members to receive the messages as individual emails in their personal email accounts if they prefer that interface. We can share as little or as much as we are comfortable with. Questions are always welcome; members try to respond, not with specific advice, but with their own experiences - what has helped (or not helped) them.
There are a few guidelines that are distributed to all incoming members. Some of these are designed to keep our conversations respectful. For example, husband-bashing (or "other woman"-bashing) is not permitted. We understand anger and a need to vent. However, nasty comments or name-calling are not necessary. Similarly, we do not allow blatant criticism or condemnation of any individual member or church denomination. We are here to help each other and not tear each other down.
Throughout the year we host several 4-8 week study groups for those who are interested, in a separate StudyGroup forum. These take several different forms, depending on the facilitator and the topic. In the past we have used videos that are available on the internet, or followed a published study or read a book or section of the Bible together. Each week we have discussion topics or questions that we can respond to and share our thoughts via email or Groups.io.
NLP maintains a small library including many books from our Recommended Reading list. These are available on loan to active members, residing in the US, who otherwise may not be able to obtain them, for just the cost of postage.
Our annual NLP Retreat/Conference is a time for members to get together in person. The location and dates vary from year to year - the picture at the left was taken at a recent retreat site. We purposely try to hold the event in different parts of the country to make it easier for our widely-scattered members to attend occasionally. We sometimes have guest speakers, there are meaningful presentations and activities, general sharing time and free time. The retreat always includes lots of hugs, laughs, tears, learning, and sharing. It has been a life-changing experience for many.

How do I get help from a human?
What is Unito?
Unito is a technology that syncs your favorite work management tools, letting your teams collaborate seamlessly, regardless of the tools they use.
After an initial setup, Unito is totally invisible in your day-to-day work. You keep working on the tool you like most and we make sure everything is synced automatically to and from your tool.
What exactly does Unito do?
From the Unito App, you connect your favorite tools and create a Sync for each pair of projects (and/or repositories) you want to keep synchronized.
Once a Sync is created, Unito will perform a first synchronization, which will replicate existing tasks from one tool to the other, and vice-versa.
Note: if you have a lot of existing tasks/issues, it may take multiple passes for the first sync to complete.
Unito will then maintain the projects in sync, applying changes made from one side to the other. This includes:
- Closing tasks/issues
- Updating the title or description
- Assigning people
- Adding tags or labels
- Attaching files
- Making appropriate comments
(actually we'll sync the inappropriate ones too, so be careful...)
Depending on the work management tools it will also sync :
- Status and workflows
- Priorities and importance
- Custom fields
- Sub-tasks
A Sync only takes a couple of minutes to set up: you add a connector for each of your tools, and choose the projects you want to sync. Everything will then run automatically, in the background.
Unito offers a bunch of additional settings that lets you customize it to your specific workflows:
- Add filters to include or exclude tasks/issues.
- Synchronize in only one direction.
- Prefix tasks with GitHub/Jiraissue numbers.
- Synchronize pull-requests.
- Synchronize Epics and Sprints
How do I access Unito?
Accessing Unito is pretty straightforward; for new setups, choose your tools directly from https://unito.io and we'll walk you through the 2-minute process. Once setup, access the app directly at https://app.unito.io.
Trying to connect Wrike?
Thanks to our partnership with Wrike, Unito is embedded directly in your Wrike workspace.
To access Unito, click on your name in the top-right corner of your Wrike workspace. Select Apps & Integration and configure the Jira Sync integration.
How do I navigate the Unito interface?
- The Dashboard has a list of all the Syncs you created. You can:
- Click on the text of each sync to edit them.
- Manually trigger a synchronization instead of waiting several minutes.
- Toggle manual syncing on/off.
- Click the three dots to the right of a sync to edit or delete it.
How do I get help from a human?
Not a Unito user already?
Just send us an email at email@example.com, you'll get an answer in the next 24h, we promise!
Already using Unito?
Just use the chat in the bottom-right corner of the Unito App (and yes, you can send us emojis):
Unito works pretty much automatically, but behind the rows of monkeys there are indeed real humans. We're called Jordan, Hannah, Abigail, Nnamdi, Ryan, April, Jeremy, Nilovna, Louis, and now more than can be reasonably named here.
We'll get back to you right away, and get those monkeys back in line!

Album Title: IAPOE
By: Henrik Pultz Melbye
Label: Clean Feed Records
Released: 2018
Duration: 00:37:45
By non-idiomatic sounds, they mean barnyard animals illuminating emotional resistance to the big hammer in the sky. Feel their pain if you need to.
The drums/sax duo, Heaven, is the collaboration between danish sax player Henrik Pultz Melbye and Norwegian drummer Ole Mofjell, performing fast, highly energetic, old and new school free jazz. Inspired by European free improvisation, 60's New York loft avantgarde and ethiopian jazz, this duo is not afraid of combining strong rhythmic and melodic ideas, with stretches of more noisey non-idiomatic sounds. With a huge amount of personality and courage to not do the same thing twice, these two musicians are here to prove that it is not impossible to walk in the footsteps of the legendary drum/sax duos which have come before. Norwegian drummer, Ole Mofjell is known for his fast paced, energetic drum playing. He has been heard playing with musicians including Laura Toxværd, Thurston Moore and Tobias Delius. Danish saxplayer Henrik Pultz Melbye has been touring all over Europe with the avantgarde-rock band SVIN. He has also released records with his award nominated trio and as a solo saxophone act. He's an agile and curious saxophone player constantly exploring new ways to play the saxophone. Earth is the last song of their debut album IAPOE out on Clean Feed Records
#1 Is #2 A #3 Place #4 On #5 Earth

Also, the active ingredient, eugenol, while an antioxidant in smaller doses, is actually becomes carcinogenic as you increase the dosage. The problem is, nobody knows where that threshold is, and apparently, it can differ significantly from person to person.
Through the (SCD) Specific Carbohydrate Diet, explained in this book, our son was able to get off medication and thrive. He healed himself and was able to go away to college. Last month he had a relapse, had surgery and by going back on the diet he was able to put himself in remission. The doctors are amazed with his latest tests and told him he did not need medication, but he must stick to the diet. I have bought over a dozen of these books and shared them with doctors, family members, and friends. I strongly recommend this book for any IBD/IBS issues.

Where Quality Meets the Outdoors
Excitement, anticipation, challenge. With emotion coursing through your veins, you begin to plan out that long-dreamed-of hunting expedition. Grabbing some paper you start jotting down the needed supplies. Anticipation escalates as you plan and scrawl down more items. After a while, you've filled several pages with supplies and gear. Brimming with excitement, you know the next stage of your planning is about to begin- the shopping. Where can you shop with the best options?
Let me introduce Premier Outdoors. It's the place where hunters, fisherman, softball players, capers, and the entire family meet with friendly customer service.
Located just south of the bustling intersection of Mt. Hope, Ohio, the business is focused on helping each customer walking in their door have an excellent shopping experience. While hunting is one of the core aspects specializes in. There are also footwear, clothing, sports, camping, optics, and fishing departments. The welcoming sales staff is there to assist with finding just the right item for the project or adventure at hand.
Premier Outdoors began in 2009, with Norman Miller as the owner and sole employee. As time went on, his brother John and another associate, Jonathan Yoder, joined the business. Soon the threesome was making plans., and in 2015 the company opened their impressive new retail store. The new building is larger, with many more items in stock. The business now has seven people employed full time, with several more helping during the busier seasons.
Back to that expedition list. Maybe yours starts with something like this: Have my bow tuned (Possibly get a new one.) Check out the gun options, lightweight hunting clothes, good footwear, food, water filters, optics, a GPS, lightweight tent, warm sleeping bag, walking stick, and efficient camping stove, packs, a better knife- Your entire list can be brought to Premier Outdoors where everything can be crossed and taken care of once and for all. John states that the business is the only one in the area capable of providing 100% of the items on your list.

LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Shares of PerkinElmer Inc. jumped Friday, a day after the medical-products maker said it was going to sell off its aerospace business to Eaton Corp.
PerkinElmer PKI, -0.06% rose 7% to $22.07 after saying it would sell the business for $333 million in order to concentrate more on its health-sciences and photonics operations.
The company also said it was in talks to sell its semiconductor and fluid-testing businesses. In total, PerkinElmer sees proceeds of $400 million from its divestiture plans.
Gregory Summe, PerkinElmer chairman and chief executive, said in a press release that it expects the deals to be "modestly" dilutive to earnings next year, by about 5% to 7%.
Shares of Eaton ETN, +0.77% were up 1.1% to $61.72.

How to increase the performance of Cozy Image Gallery?
- Try to limit the number of images you are embedding into the Gallery.
- Prefer JPEG/JPG over PNG or GIF if you don't need transparency which is in most cases.
- Delete galleries which you don't need anymore to improve cache hit.
- If your gallery is embedded in the middle of the page or footer, try our Lazy Load.
- Do not change the extension of the images you upload.

Thank You JCAs {over 1500+ followers!}
I can't believe how much our community has grown over the years. I am also thrilled with how wonderful we are when it comes to sharing everything from the latest promotions to advice on fit, quality, etc. It makes shopping at J.Crew a whole lot easier. (Sometimes, I feel like I know more than the store associate about what J.Crew is selling at what price, thanks to comments I read on this blog!)
A big "THANK YOU!" to each and everyone one of you who help contribute to the success of this site.
Congrats all around JCAs!!! :)

Thank you Alexis for your wonderful blog. I check in almost every day and it is a veritable treasure trove of information on everything JC. Thanks to you and the JCA community I've learned about promotions hours before the emails come and made informed buying decisions from the great(and sometimes not so great) JCA reviews. Best of all, reading the comments with my tea in the morning always brings a smile to my face, if not a squeal of laughter.(WFF and the new line of WWF wear from JC.)Congratulations on a job so very well done!ReplyDelete

As a side note, I would never have started my own blog if I had not felt so much a part of yours. Meeting like-minded people through the blogosphere is rewarding and fun and for me, you are the trailblazer.
I am 100% sure that I would not be able to shop at JCrew if I weren't to have this blog and community to support my whims and taste. Thank you, Alexis! My secret word is drampeda...maybe some dramatic shoes are coming our way!ReplyDelete
You can add me to the list of fans who enjoy a cup of tea/coffee from their desk as they read your blog first thing in the morning (and then several times through the day!). Thank you for creating and fostering such an informative, fun and friendly community!ReplyDelete
Congrats, Alexis!!! Thanks SO much for all that you do!!!!ReplyDelete
Let me join others in congratulating you on this milestone. And a huge THANK YOU for running this blog. Where would our community be without you? I most certainly would not shop nearly as much at JC, nor would I have started my own blog. Thanks again for the wonderful job you've done!ReplyDelete
Congratulations Alexis!!! A huge thank you for keeping up this wonderful blog and helping to create such a great community.ReplyDelete

Congrats Alexis...I am sure there are more than 1,500 loyal readers, commenters, etc...I have never officially become a "friend of the site" but am a loyal (and insanely frequent) reader of the blog. I agree with the many others who have said they couldn't shop the Crew without all the help and advice found here. Thanks to Alexis and all the JCAs!ReplyDelete

Congratulations Alexis! This is the blog I've followed the longest and I love coming here everyday for your wonderful posts and the tips & tricks I learn from all these helpful JCAs. You have created an amazing community that's fun and intriguing.ReplyDelete
My only disappointment is that you don't get the recognition you deserve from J.Crew itself. They are fools not to count you among the most influential brand advocates.
Thanks for all you do Alexis! I've been following this blog for years and really appreciate the great help that you and the JCAs are. It makes shopping at our favorite store much better and is so helpful for sizing etc. Thanks again for giving us this great place to share.ReplyDelete

Celebrating and inspiring entrepreneurship
To help businesses go further
F1 chief invests in food data start-up Yumpingo
Yumpingo, the food intelligence platform, has secured the backing of business leaders including Ross Brawn, Formula One managing director of motorsports, Steve Parish, chairman of Crystal Palace FC, Keith Taylor, CFO of Equinix and Tara Donavon, former CEO of Jamie Oliver Media Group.
This takes total investment in the company to £1.3m. The firm, which offers real-time customer feedback and data analytics for the restaurant industry, was founded by Gary Goodman in 2016 and has recently announced a number of contracts with high-street restaurant chains and independents.
Yumpingo is also set to roll out to more sites at Wagamama, Wahaca and Jamie's Italian, delivering more value from real-time customer feedback than any other platform.
Diners complete a one-minute review at the end of their meal, either on Yumpingo devices, which replace traditional bill presenters, or on their own device. Up to 66% of tables take part with no incentive and 20% of guests leave a GDPR compliant email.
This data allows restaurateurs to understand what their customers are really thinking across multiple sites and, by adding machine learning to this feedback, Yumpingo produces insights that enable them to oprimise guest experiences at site, service, server and dish level.
Gary Goodman, founder and CEO of Yumpingo, said: "At a time when the restaurant industry is under significant pressure, we see an opportunity for Yumpingo to help brands derisk decision making and deliver better food and service that will keep customers coming back for more."
Ross Brawn, Formula One managing director of Motorsports, added: "Data has been an enabler in every part of my career. Winning in Formula 1 required us to understand and analyse data and information to optimise our performance in every aspect. Yumpingo is applying this understanding of data and insights to the restaurant industry and that's why I see it as a game changer."

With Valentine's day coming up in a matter of weeks, it's time to start thinking how to celebrate. What I love about this holiday, is that it isn't just about romantic love, but it can be about celebrating friendships, familial love, or hey, even the love you have for your fluffy friend.
Even if you are in a relationship, or you are single it is nice to have a girl's night in every once in a while. And Valentine's day can be the perfect opportunity to get some fun activities together and have a Galentine's day celebration.
So keep reading to find out how to throw an amazing Galentine's day party for you and your friends that you will never forget <3
You don't have to spend a lot of money to go big on decorating for your Galentine's day. You would be surprised what a couple cute balloons and a cute table spread would do for your party vibes. Plus, in my opinion, you can never go wrong with rose gold!
Serve a Hot Co-co Bar
Set up a hot chocolate bar with some toppings like marshmallows, fudge, whipped cream, caramel, maybe even some peppermint schnapps. This is the perfect warm and cosy way to have a relaxing night in with your fiends.
Have a 'Treat Yourself' Spread
Desserts should be a staple at any Galentine's day gathering! So set up a bar with frosting, sprinkles, fudge, caramel, cookie dough etc and set out some ice cream, doughnuts and cookies. You've now got a make your own treat table where you and your girls can binge on all the sugary goodness.
Bust out the Cocktails
Get some Rose or Prosecco to serve with your warm sugary platters. You can also put out some OJ and other types of fruit juice so that your guests can make their own mimosas. While you're at it, you can glam up your Prosecco with these delicious looking gummies from Tasty:
Spend quality time with your friends
Get into your PJ's and turn on some of your fave chic flicks, have good conversation. Relax and take this time to really show your appreciation for your loved ones. There is nothing like taking the time to make amazing memories with some of your closest friends.
