The giving of attention to another searching soul meets our own need for attention as well. Respectful recognition of another's presence blesses that person, ourselves, and God. And we help one another grow, in important ways, each time we pay the compliment of acknowledgment. –Karen Casey | More…
It is said when we walk on the Earth, we are walking on our ancestors and our unborn children. This is the relationship Native People have with the Earth. It is this relationship which gives insight into the Earth's rhythm and heartbeat and creates the feeling of belonging.
If you feel you belong to something, you'll treat it with respect. If you feel you are above something, you'll treat it with disrespect. We belong to the Earth along with all other creatures on the Earth. We must align to this realization. –Elders | More…
We are all connected. This is what the Elders have told us for a long time. If we are connected to all things, then whenever we harm anything, it causes harm to ourselves.
If we destroy the air, then we will be affected by what we breathe in. If we poison the Earth, we poison ourselves. We must respect our Mother Earth and She will respect us in return. We must open our eyes and obey the spiritual laws that govern the Earth and ourselves. –Elders | More…
We need to honor and respect our Mother Earth. She is the source of all life. The sun shines life to the earth, then the earth produces life in all forms and in a balanced way.
Everything is here to serve everything else.
If we interrupt the flow in any way, we leave nothing for the future generations. Before every decision is made, we should ask, and answer, a final question; "If we do this, what will be the effects on the seventh generation?
What will we cause our children to live with? We need to have respect and love for all things and for all people. We need to do this for ourselves and for all the children still unborn. –Elders | More…
You should not dwell too much on the mistakes, faults, and failures of the past. Be done with shame and remorse and contempt for yourself.
With God's help, develop a new self-respect. Unless you respect yourself, others will not respect you. –24Hours | More…
The Twelve Step movement grew out of a society that practiced a Key Person strategy.
If you could win important persons into your group, others of high standing would follow.
The experience of Alcoholics Anonymous led a different strategy; Work with anybody who wants help, and let leaders appear as they will.
The leaders, whom we call trusted servants, were sometimes very ordinary people in the eyes of the world. It is obvious that we are poor judge of who might become a key person.
In the sight of God, we're told, all humans are equal. Our best success comes when we treat every newcomer as a key person. –Walk In Dry Places/Mel B. | More…
The attitude of our leaders will be the attitude of the people. The attitude of the parents will be the attitude of the children.
If respect is shown from above, respect will be developed below. If the Elders show respect, the younger people will be respectful.
As above, so below. This happens because of interconnectedness. The heart of the Elders is connected to the heart of the youth. –Elders | More…
Sometimes encouragement can simply be expressed in the way we act and feel toward people. If it is genuine and based on good spiritual principles, it will be understood. It is a form of practicing the principles of the Twelve Steps in all our affairs. –Walk In Dry Places/Mel B. | More…
We cannot disclose anything to our wives or our parents which will hurt them and make them unhappy. We have no right to save our own skins at their expense. The rule is, we must be hard on ourselves, but always considerate of others. We must be sure to
remember that we cannot buy our own peace of mind at the expense of others. –As Bill Sees It | More… (p.240)
The trees are great teachers.
The trees are great listeners.
That is why we should meditate in their presence.
The Great spirit is in every rock, every animal, every human being and in every tree.
The Great Spirit has been in some trees for hundreds of years.
Therefore, the trees have witnessed and heard much.
The trees are the Elders of the Elders.
Their spirits are strong and very healing. –Elders Meditations | More…
We need to honor and respect our Mother Earth. She is the source of all life. The sun shines life to the earth, then the earth produces life in all forms and in a balanced way.
Everything is here to serve everything else. If we interrupt the flow in any way, we leave nothing for the future generations.
Before every decision is made, we should ask, and answer, a final question; "If we do
this, what will be the effects on the seventh generation? What will we cause our children to live with?"
We need to have respect and love for all things and for all people. We need to do this for ourselves and for all the children still unborn. –Elders | More…
The Old Ones before us knew things. Many of them were so spiritual that the Creator told them things through visions, ceremonies, and prayer.
The Creator taught them about interconnectedness, balance and respect. The Old Ones experienced these things and told us we are all children of the same God.
We all live under the same natural laws. Every human being, every animal, every plant, every insect, every bird, we are all the same in the eyes of God. –Elders | More…
When we were drinking, we did not have much self-respect. Because we felt guilty about the quantity of alcohol we were consuming and the way we looked, we had a very poor self-image.
Since we did not respect ourselves, we did not act in a way which evoked respect from others. We put ourselves down and allowed other people to use us.
Abstinence and the AA program produce a change, which is often astonishing. Our self-respect grows in direct proportion to the control we acquire.
When we begin to live in accordance with the will of our Higher Power, we can accept
and respect ourselves. Those around us respond to us differently as our own attitude improves. Instead of living for the admiration of others, we seek each day to follow the will of our Higher Power. –Food For Thought | More…
Our entire point of view can be altered by making one change to align with the principles of the Great Spirit. Let's say we decide to become respectful.
As we become respectful, our attitude will change. We will automatically draw into our lives knowledge about the other principles of the Great Spirit such as love, appreciation, trust, beauty, and peace of mind.
By focusing on these principles, we will let go of selfishness, self-centeredness, self-pity, dishonesty, and fear. You focus on respect, you get respect; you focus on love, you get love; you focus on the Red Road, you get peace of mind. –Elders Meditations/White Bison | More…

1. What is an online community?
An online community is a group of people who exchange ideas and expertise in a virtual environment. Community members have shared purpose and interests. The characteristics of an online community can change depending on the technology used and opportunities for members to interact. Social media tools such as discussion boards, blogs, wikis provide the channels to share the stories and experiences of members resulting in knowledge sharing and collaboration. They become repositories of knowledge for future use, reducing duplication of research and filtering targeted information.
[ top of page ]
2. What are the benefits of online education communities?
Effective online education communities harness the collective intelligence to provide information and expertise to be enjoyed by all members of the community. They improve the way we work, learn and innovate. Online education communities create the bonds which are important in forming social networks, mentorship, and the spirit of the community.
3. Why do I need to provide profile information?
Profile information is used to check for spam, so please fill in all required fields. Profile information also helps the Connect with Maths team develop suitable programs and resources for the community, and assists in strategies needed for a sustainable community.
4. What is the definition of 'early years'?
AAMT defines 'early years' as Birth to eight years which aligns with a national approach. Within the early years there are two main groups: the first is prior-to-school, which covers Birth to four years of age, and the second includes children five to eight years of age.
5. What is the Early Learning Framework?
This framework describes the principles, practices and outcomes that support and enhance young children's learning from birth to five years of age, as well as their transition to school. An Educator's Guide to the Early Learning Years Framework and REFLECT, RESPECT, RELATE are helpful resources on this topic.
[ top of page ]
6. Is there a separate prior-to-school community?
No, the Early Years Learning in Mathematics community includes both prior-to-school and primary years. Members could be educators in childcare centres, schools (Kindergarten, Reception, Prep and Primary years 1 to 2), pre- and post-school care centres, or parents including those who are home schooling.
7. Are educators of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children included?
Yes, all educators are welcome. As the community is forum-based, there can be a group which focuses on Indigenous learners. You can also subscribe to the Make it Count with Indigenous Learners community.
8. Are parents a key member group?
Yes, the community encourages participation by educators across all sectors; it welcomes those in the wider learning community, including parents.

With retailers hurting and the U.S. president trying to encourage Americans to spend money to restore consumer confidence, what I'm about to say may seem like treason. But here goes: Please boycott Valentine's Day and all that is associated with this horrendous "holiday."
For several years I have ripped into Valentine's Day. Not because I'm against love and relationships, but mainly because the holiday is such a farce.
First of all, Valentine's Day is not built around a religious event like Christmas or Easter; nor does it have any special meaning to the nation such as Memorial Day or Veterans Day.
It is nothing more than a commercial holiday created by rabid retailers who needed a major shopping day between Christmas and Easter in order to give people a reason to spend money.
Now folks, I love my wife. She is truly an awesome woman who is smart, talented, fine, and, did I say fine? But do I really need a special day to show my affection for her?
I've long maintained that if I sent my flowers at other times during the year, why do I have to fall victim to peer pressure and send her some roses that have quadrupled in price leading up to February 14?
Why should I be inundated with mailings, e-mails and commercials to show her that I love her by buying jewelry or clothing? If we went shopping in June or September or last month, can I get some kind of waiver or "Get out of Valentine's Day" card?
As for this silly flower thing, it's even got to the point that any flowers can't do. Some years ago I planned on sending a woman some flowers that weren't roses, and the (female) co-workers were aghast. They felt that nothing mattered except roses.
First of all, I didn't have a lot of dough and felt a nice bouquet was sufficient, but they were appalled. So I told them to go to hell and I'll do what I want. I guess for them, the thought really doesn't matter.
Then there are the women on the job who measure the love of their men based on those flowers. You know how some folks are. If there are flowers on the desk of 10 other women, and one woman doesn't have anything, folks get to talking and whispering as if something is wrong in her relationship.
I've learned that even if you get the biggest-ever rose bouquet -- the relationship might be crumbling and you just refuse to admit it.
And Valentine's Day really isn't even a two-way street. Men are utterly irrelevant except to serve as pawns in this commercial game, emptying their wallets in order to satisfy their lovers or those around them. Oh yea, retailers know the con game.
Most of these guys are hapless saps who have ignored their wives or girlfriends all year, so they buy the flowers and candy, and set a reservation at one of the city's most expensive restaurants, all to say, "Honey, I love you."
Ladies, and men, stop it! It's time to say enough is enough with Valentine's Day.
What do I want? How about men and women loving, caring and sharing the other 364 days a year? February 14 isn't the only time to send flowers to your woman (ladies, we wouldn't mind getting a surprise delivery as well!). How about dropping her a flower arrangement on May 14? And on that card you need to write, "Just because..."
Instead of men and women spicing up their sex life on February 14, make the effort to satisfy your mate the rest of the year.
If last Valentine's Day was the last time you took your significant other out to a really nice restaurant, you deserve to be in trouble.
Are you planning to treat your man or woman to a wonderful day at the spa this Saturday? Well, I'm sure he or she would thoroughly enjoy the same in June or July.
It's time that we all take stock of our relationships and learn that we are to be loving and fulfilled 365 days a year, and not reduce our affection to flowers, candy, jewelry, clothes and a meal on one day a year.
The people who plan their lives around Valentine's are like those who spend more time planning their wedding day rather than planning their marriage. The day is nice and wonderful, but what makes it last is what you do on the "non-special" days.

A leader of a private environmental group appealed to the public to help save the Arroceros Forest Park in Manila, the last lung of the capital, after being threatened anew.
Chiqui Sy-Quia Mabanta, leader of the park's guardian Winner Foundation, claimed on her Facebook post that the place is under threat from developer.
So.. Arroceros Forest Park is under threat again (nasty developers).We (Winner Foundation and Manila Doctors Hospital…
Posted by Chiqui Sy-Quia Mabanta on Tuesday, June 19, 2018
Mabanta did not specify the developers or the commercial space to be built.
However, many people directed it at the local government's plan to transform the place into a school gymnasium.
SAVE MANILA'S LAST LUNGIsang panawagan para sa ating mga kababayan, tulungan po natin ang mga environmental groups na…
Posted by Gising Maynila on Tuesday, August 14, 2018
In 2017, the environmentalists won the fight against the planned school gymnasium, but reports say that Mayor Ejercito Estrada only deferred it.
Mabanta sought for registered voters in Manila to sign a petition to enact an ordinance to protect the park.
This was in accordance to the Local Autonomy Act, wherein Section 3-A states:
"Every municipality or city shall exert efforts to establish, develop and maintain a permanent forest, tree parks or watershed within public land owned by such municipality or city with an aggregate size equivalent to at least two per cent of its entire area."
She teamed up with the Manila Doctors Hospital-Corporate Social Responsibility Clinic for this advocacy.
Saving Manila's last nature reserve
The petition needs at least 1,000 signatures before the concern can be brought to the mayor.
"I am looking for people (registered voters) from the City of Manila (a requirement) to sign this petition to create this ordinance with us," Mabanta said.
There's no online version of the petition so people have to send a private message to Mabanta if they wish to help.
"I know it is somewhat a hassle that this cannot be done online. The courts won't recognize it, so If you want to help, please make the extra effort in printing the signature forms which I can email to you," she explained in another post.
She added that they still have a long way to go from the target number, which she hoped to reach before the end of August.
Here are some of the photos of flora and fauna found in the park.
Manila's last lung
Arroceros Forest Park is a natural reserve at the heart of Ermita, Manila that lost 70% of its once lush trees over the years.
However, in 2007, they lost the battle when the now-dilapidated Park and Ride Building and City Department of Education building were built during then Mayor Lito Atienza's time.
The park was originally a 2.2 hectare land bought by former Mayor Alfredo Lim in 1992 for P60 million because he wanted to provide a place for Manila residents to have a breather amid the hustle and bustle of urban life.
Former Department of Education chair Alejandro R. Roces said in a column that 60 different types of species of Philippine trees were planted that time, wherein 10 kinds of birds had nested.
"It became an oasis in the midst of the city's concrete jungle, a place where nature and civilization melded into one," Roces wrote.
To create Lim's vision, the land was leased to Winner Foundation to develop the park.
The Arroceros Forest Park was established with the help of the Manila Seedling Bank, the Bulacan Gardens Corporation and landscape architect Wilfrido "Doy" Dizon who provided the design.
If you wish to help save Manila's last forest, you may email Mabanta at email@example.com or message her on Facebook so that she can send you the petition if you are willing to help.

Driving over the top of the Helshoogte on a sunny day brings a little tummy freeze at the beauty which lies before you. Oldenburg Vineyards is part of that vista, part Alpine, part Stellenbosch, certainly majestic.
The Oldenburg Vineyard from which this wine draws its grapes is 13 years old and is planted on Oakleaf and Glenrosa Soils with drip irrigation available if required.
Oldenburg Tasting and Sales House
The Shiraz grapes for the Oldenburg Syrah 2013 are picked by hand with bunch sorting taking place in the vineyard and berry sorting in the cellar after destemming. The grapes are then gently crushed and allowed a cold soak for three days before fermentation begins with the use of a special Syrah yeast. Once fermented dry, the wine spends 18 months in a selection of French and American oak barrels before being prepared for bottling.
It looks like
Bottled in a Burgundy shaped bottle under natural cork closure. The elegant Oldenburg livery is in black with the name of the wine in red. In the glass, is it deep opaque plum ruby in colour which pales out to garnet at the rim.
Shiraz grapes ripening on the vine
It smells like
Rustic berries, grinds of white pepper, charcuterie and Italian leather.
It tastes like
An elegant wine, generous red and black berry fruit, supporting oak and its concomitant spices. Tannins and the oak are well interwoven with the sweet vanilla of the American oak in undertow.
Dianne Bibby's Rosemary Paprika Roast Chicken
It's good with
While it is a great after dinner glass, the wine is made for food. It can tackle meat happily in any form, as well as duck, game birds and venison. It can also go happily with a well-seasoned roast chicken flattie. Dianne Bibby's Rosemary & Paprika Roast Chicken is a happy partner. Do chill the wine for about 30 minutes before serving.

I have always been interested in the idea of charm bracelets and their symbolism. As the last twelve months have been very difficult I have decided, as part of an effort to be more positive, to start one of my own.
Throughout it all my Grandparents were there, simply caring for us.


text: Having just moved house, this young couple wanted to revitalise their new garden to create a space that allowed the children to play and the adults relax. A new bigger deck was installed by the patio doors, a new larger lawn was laid and new planting beds established with mixed planting for all year interest and space to grow their own fruit and vegetables. The finished result is a space that everyone enjoys being in together allowing for quality family time.

Key tests to determine Manteca High's future have nothing to do with what goes on inside classrooms.
Instead they are tests to determine what issues lurk underground and in the walls as the Manteca Unified School District gears up for an overall $40 million investment to situate the 97-year-old campus for its second hundred years.
The tests will determine how much work needs to be done on electrical and plumbing systems, the condition of roofs, whether there is lead or asbestos behind walls and ceilings, and whether there is soil contamination.
"What we find will determine how much we can do with Measure G funds," noted Deputy Superintendent Clark Burke.
There is $15 million in Measure G money set aside for the Manteca High campus earmarked exclusively to address health and safety and modernization needs. In addition the school board has budgeted $4 million in one-time redevelopment agency receipts and $21 million in growth fees collected from new development to go toward expanding the campus to accommodate growth.
Manteca High has a current enrollment of 1,532 students with an existing campus designed to accommodate 1,703 students.
Under a long-range growth strategy adopted by the school board, district high schools eventually will be taken from a targeted ideal cap enrollment of 1,800 to 2,200 students. Manteca High will be the first campus to move toward the 2,200 student mark in terms of facilities.
How far the $25 million for situating Manteca High for growth goes depends on how much Measure G bond funding address health and safety needs.
Support facilities such as the gym will need to be addressed as well as campus security and flow issues that involve taking over the stretch of Garfield Avenue that splits the campus as well as possibly the reorientation of the front of the campus to Moffat Boulevard.
While nothing is in concrete, maximizing what is already in place to be as effective as possible for a campus of 2,200 could mean converting the existing Winter Gym into the secondary gym and building a new gym where the entire student body could be seated during an assembly.
Regardless of how much construction actually takes place with the $25 million to accommodate enrollment growth, Burke said the basic plan put in place will be designed to allow future construction to maximize the campus capacity.
He noted if the decision is made to build two-story classroom wings that would require elevators; the district's intent is to design a footprint that ultimately would accommodate the maximum number of second floor classrooms allowed per elevator.
"Given the cost of elevators and maintaining them, it wouldn't make sense not to make sure we build the maximum classrooms allowed per elevator," Burke noted.
School board representatives are also meeting periodically with two of their City Council peers to examine joint ventures and joint uses at the central district campus to maximize overall tax dollars and provide optimum facilities for high school students and the community.
While the testing phase is being wrapped up, the district is preparing to circulate requests for proposals for design services and then request for proposals for lease-lease back construction services.
The lease-lease back allows for maximum flexibility in the construction process not only making changes more nimble but provides incentives for the contractor to reduce costs allowing maximization of available dollars.
Throughout the entire process, the district plans to have continuous community engagement on the direction that Manteca High will take in terms of its new facilities.

i've been waiting all day, and i mean all day, for a package from ups and went outside around 6pm to see a notice on the door saying ups made an attempt to deliver. there were 6 people in the house and nobody heard a knock or a doorbell.
called ups 1800 number to see if they can redeliver later on that night and i was on hold to speak with a supervisor for god know how long.
and yeah i waited for more and once i spoke to the supervisor the only thing i found out is that he doesn't have any common sense whatsoever. a total ***!
I'm black.
i dont pay for next day shipping for a *** sorry we missed you tag on my door in a 2 bedroom apartment with 5 people home and like 3 in the living room to hear a knock or door bell.............i really hate ups and i guess i have to stop ordering from amazon because i pay the extra shipping for next day deliver and get a *** sticker everytime.
You have just threatened the MODERATOR, who in turn threatened the person who threatened the individual who posted the complaint. This will not be tolerated. Moderator's IP address will now be tracked and authority's will be notified of this threat circle!
You've made a threat against the person making a threat. Your IP has been tracked. Authorities will be contact promptly.
You just made a threat towards this company and their personnel. Your IP address has been tracked. The authorities and UPS have been notified and actions will be taken against you.
This happened to me too today. I was waiting on an important package from T-Mobile. I made sure to be at home and guess what? There was no knock and no doorbell.
I am so PISSED off. I missed work to try and intercept this package. How hard is it to stand there and wait 10 seconds for someone to get to the door so you can give them their *** package, you silly vaginas?
Yeah.. shave off 10 minutes on your daily route so you can run home and microwave your $1 tv dinners. You obesed motherf*ckers need to perform your job PROPERLY.
I'm going to give the next UPS driver who does this trick to me a flat tire with my rifle.
:( Same thing happens to me when dealing with UPS. I'm not happy with this service. I will be setting up surveillance next time to catch them in the act of "attempted delivery".
I have this repeated problem where the UPS guy will slap a sticker on my door and run off. Happened again yesterday.
I work at home, so I'm home almost all the time M-F. I'm sitting at my computer, when I hear a slight sound like someone is pushing on my front door. Then I hear a truck start off and rumble away. I go check, and there's a "missed you" sticker on my door.
No knock.
No doorbell. Nothing, the guy just put a sticker on my door quietly and ran off.
I stayed home today, and watched for the van--and even saw it in the neighborhood, but didn't see it stop (though it could have been around the side of my building). I've actually seen the local drivers jump out of the truck with pre-filled stickers, slap them on the apartment doors, and then truck away to leave everyone's stuff at the apartment office, which isn't open any reasonable hours.
They get to go home early if everything is "delivered"--so they just make one drop. Doesn't matter if you have standard shipping or expedited service.
I just had this happen tonight. I heard the UPS truck.
When I heard the truck drive off, I checked and found my package quietly placed on the front porch. No doorbell or knock.
I double checked the operation of the illuminated doorbell.
BTW: USPS does the same thing. I think they can increase their quota using this technique.
Please don't take the comments from the post from the "ups driver". If he is indeed a UPS Service Provider, he is definately the exception and not the rule.
Most UPS Service Providers are very customer service oriented people. That is one of the key traits UPS looks for when they select, hire and train Service Providers. This poor soul is probably an angry union employee who somehow, marginally scraped by when he was training as Service Provider. He is probably angry at his inability to work efficiently like he was instructed and most likely has issues with all aspects of his life.
While Service Providers are trained to take the minimum time necessary to deliver packages, they will most certainly knock on a door and ring a door bell if present, all the while filling out the Info Notice and service cross the package.
As for the Info Notice on the ground ten feet away from the door, the adhesive on these is not the greatest. May I offer up that it was on your door and at some point, became detached and blew ten feet away?
I've had this happen before on several occasions. Made sure to sit close to the front door all day waiting for a package, go check the door for tags in the late afternoon, and they supposedly stopped by to attempt to deliver - but nobody heard a knock.
As a matter of fact, just today, they did the exact same thing - claimed to have stopped by the door at 1:27pm but nobody heard a knock.
Only reason I noticed this quick is that I checked the tracking information online and it showed a delivery exception, so I went outside to try to find a door tag and it was laying on the ground about 10 feet from the door. Fantastic service.

By Marnie Eisenstadt email@example.com , syracuse.com
Syracuse, N.Y. - Don't pout if you aren't in the path of totality for the upcoming total solar eclipse. The big show is coming to New York in 2024.
The next total solar eclipse coming to North America is April 8, 2024. The path of totality, where the sun is completely blocked by the moon, goes straight over Central and Western New York. Buffalo and Rochester are right in the middle of the path, where the minutes of blackness will be the longest. Syracuse is on the edge, but still will experience complete darkness.
That eclipse, according to NASA estimates, will enter North America in Canada, with the shadow entering the U.S. in Maine. The path cuts a swath through Texas, leaving North America in Mazatlan, Mexico.
For Western and Central New York, it's possible cloud cover will dim or ruin the show, as April is a tricky time here. But it's far too early to predict.

Upton Sinclair's The Jungle examined the working conditions of the slaughterhouse industry, leading to revolutionary changes in the way American companies treat their employees.
While workplace conditions have significantly improved with governmental oversight, legislation and OSHA, Americans in some industries still are feeling the psychological and physical effects of a negative work environment.
The American Psychological Association (APA) lists a number of factors that tend to go hand-in-hand with work-related stress, among them: low salaries, excessive workloads, few opportunities for growth or advancement, work that isn't engaging or challenging, lack of social support, not having enough control over job-related decisions, and conflicting demands or unclear performance expectations.
Micki Siegel de Hernandez, health & safety director at the Communications Workers of America, discussed these factors with EHS Today as well as what employers can do to recognize and reduce workplace stress.
What causes workplace stress?
Sigel de Hernandez: Workplace stress could be caused by a number of issues. Most often it has to do with:
• how work is organized
• the demands of the workplace
• the kind of control or lack of control that workers may have in their particular job
• hazards that are in the workplace
• dangers that are in the workplace.
It also could be caused by psychological factors and issues around the organization itself, and the kind of reaction that affects that stress can have particular chronic stress.
What are some of the physical and mental issues that could arise?
Sigel de Hernandez: When we're talking about occupational stress, it can affect people in so many ways. It can cause disease; it can cause chronic conditions —diseases like heart disease and stroke. It's related to musculoskeletal conditions. It can cause chronic pain conditions. It can cause headaches. It can cause lack of concentration. It can affect the respiratory system, the endocrine system and hormones, and it can also affect the nervous system. It can lead to reduced immune response, and the list goes on and on.
How does chronic stress affect workplace safety?
Sigel de Hernandez: For workers who are chronically stressed, they may also be suffering from anxiety as a result of that. It affects sleep. Depending upon what the stressor is, they're more prone to accidents or to injuries if they're constantly in a stressed state. There had been fatalities that had occurred as a result of that, strictly because of the number of hours worked.
Because of the demand and the physiological response in the body, people just start breaking down, It affects a person's ability to think and to make decisions, good decisions that you would make if you weren't in that stressed state. This isn't just in the United States. In Japan they have a word for this. It's called Koroshi, which is death by overwork, and it has to do with the way certain industries are structured and just excessive overtime of workers in those industries and death – that's the overwork part, sudden heart attacks, stroke and also suicides as a result of those workplace conditions.
How can companies integrate different programs to reduce stress in the workplace?
Sigel de Hernandez: There needs to be a focus on the workplace conditions that are causing stress. Occupational stress is causing companies a lot of money as well as affecting employee health, and some of those costs are hidden. It's not as easy to associate those costs, things like absenteeism for example, or a rise in healthcare cost with what is actually going on in the workplace, but I think that it does. It affects the bottom line as well as affecting the employees that work there.
So, I think when the employers really want to reduce their cost and also make the workplace a more humane place, and protect people, and reduce injuries, reduce health effects caused by stress, then you really have to be able to look at the conditions at work.
It's not just a question of training managers or training supervisors. A company has to be willing to look at the kinds of demands and pressures – the procedures of a particular workplace and involve workers in decisions about how work gets structured. There are so many industries and occupations where the demand is so high.
When it exceeds a person's capacity or a workforce's capacity to really deal with stress on a regular basis, those are the kinds of things where you start seeing health problems, and you also start seeing effects on productivity, absenteeism, illness and a potential rise in workplace accidents.
How can a company train its managers and supervisors to recognize stress?
Sigel de Hernandez: Managers and supervisors can be trained to look at some of those clues that exist that there are some underlying problems, but there has to be an honest way of figuring out what that underlying problem is.
Often with occupational stress, the focus is put on the individual worker and in developing programs to help people cope in a workplace wellness program. The focus really should be put on what are those elements that are creating that stressful environment because unless you get rid of those, the conditions that are causing the problems, then you'll never fix the problem, and you'll never really have a workplace that's as healthy as it should be.
It's not about an individual worker; it's not about just breathing deeply, or relaxing. All of those things are fine, but it's really those production issues, the demands which may be unreasonable for people, excessive overtime for example — all of those things can create chronic stress in the people in that workplace.

Suspense and mystery novels are a great way to challenge our minds. That's one reason why I read them so often. I purposely look for suspense writers who stay away from becoming too dark and dabbling into graphic horror. I don't mind fantasy or science fiction either as long as the line isn't crossed at this same point. There's a fine line to toe when looking for this kind of balance. So when I find an author who can write this way successfully while engaging the reader's intelligence, I like to tell others. This book fulfills most of the above criteria. The author is new to me, so the jury is still out, but so far, it looks good.
Robert and Ruby had been friends since they were just children living in an orphanage. All those years ago, they had backed each other up, joining forces and becoming fast friends. Now as adults, they were each traveling their own paths, yet still in contact and still supportive of each other. Both busy in their own lives, until one day Ruby discovered she had been framed for murder. Terrified, the first person she thought to contact was her friend Robert.
Throughout the rest of this book, they were running for their lives, followed by a mysterious force that seemed to know their every turn. It had something to do with The New Rulebook. What was the New Rulebook? Think of a contemporary TRON gone bad. Or an Anakin Skywalker's desire to rule the universe benevolently, for the good of everyone, turned sour. The meme, a good idea falls into the wrong hands. And why could Spock not defeat Captain Kirk at 3-D chess? Because he made unpredictable moves that defied logic.
So how did Ruby and Robert live through their ordeal? They had two things in their favor. You get to find out by reading the book. And while the story comes to a satisfying conclusion, the overall plot is not quite finished. There is more to come in future books. I am eager to read these and find out what comes next.
I liked the plot and the concept shared in this book. It's a good premise, and the suspense is kept moving along very nicely. I would like to mention that I think this author has more to offer in the way of refining the details. There were moments when ideas were a little confusing, or the structure of sentences were not clear. A few phrases worded awkwardly were dotted throughtout the book, although more frequently during the first third of the pages. These types of problems were a little distracting in the beginning from the action taking place. Once they are cleaned up, this will be a much better book. I'm looking forward to seeing these improvements.
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received a complimentary review copy of this book from the author. I was not required to write a review, positive or otherwise. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."

4817 4817 Mustad KVD TG76-BN Treble Hook (10pk)
WHAT MAKES THE KVD TREBLE BETTER? Precision, Power, & UltraPoint Technology Special KVD Shape: The specially engineered shape of the KVD Elite Series Triple Grip Treble Hook combines hooking capability with exceptional holding properties to set the standard for world class performance. Based upon our original Triple Grip series, the modified design of the KVD features a precise shape that almost locks a fish into the elbow of the bend, making it virtually impossible to throw the hook. The precise point alignment built into the KVD design provides for an optimal angle of point impact, which translates into increased power at hook set for optimum penetration. One important side benefit is that the angled shape makes this hook less prone to snagging on structure than round bend trebles. Short Shank: The 2X short shank eliminates hook tangling that can often occur on shorter bodied crank baits. It also allows anglers to use larger hooks, further increasing hooking potential. For example: Kevins personal recommendation is to replace stock Size 4 hooks with the KVD Size 2. The 2X short shank also means a shorter distance between the eye and the points of the hook, providing a more open throat for added clearance. 1 Extra Strong: Mustads extra strong wire provides additional power so you get minimal flex and better penetration at hook set. The added strength means you can lean back and get the big ones to the boat faster with less wear on the fish. A shorter, controlled fight also means you have less chance to lose that fish of a lifetime. Wider Gap: The new design has a modified, wider point angle than previous Triple Grip models which creates a wider gap than like sized round bend treble hooks. 4.3 Microsharp Point Technology: The point length is engineered to be 4.3 times the wire diameter of the hook which is the optimum ratio for maximum sharpness and strength. Ultra Point hooks are 20% sharper and designed to stay sharper longer.

An interesting article I came across whilst researching women in advertising. I feel this will really help the analysis of the commercial imagery within the publication.
Trends in Advertisements
The roles of females have greatly domesticated in popular culture, especially in advertisements. Many advertisements contain women in roles such as cooks, maids, babysitters, as well as sex objects in order to sell product. In the beginning, advertisements were once shown to sell a product, however, as years pass, advertisements begin to objectify women and begin to use women as a way to sell products. Will these roles stop putting women in such domesticating roles, or will women continue to be the subject to products? Looking at the trends of advertisements, women continue to be one of main objects for a product. The trends have greatly changed, creating a gap between the products being sold to the objects they use to sell the product. The advertising trends began before the early 1900s until present time, where the roles of women have changed drastically beginning from products being sold on literally terms, to solving personal and social problems, to consumer association and present, as a subliminal and unconscious desire (Peden).
Advertisements began before the 19th century, where advertisements were meant to sell the products in literal terms (Peden). For example, [fig. 1] demonstrates a product that is sold based on what the product entails. It explains the literal use and image of the product without additional slogans or objects. As you see, women did not have to sell themselves at this time, why now?
[fig 1](Marquees)
Advertisements have developed throughout the years in order to sell more products. In the early 1900s, advertisements have been a way in solving personal and social problems (Peden). Women at this time were placed as the main audience for the products advertised. In [fig 2], products are advertised in a way to make people feel insecure. The particular advertisement, denotatively, shows a man walking away from a woman whom is crying, which indicate anger from a man, and sadness from the woman. However, connotatively, the man is shown with control and high status, while the woman is seen as insecure, vulnerable and ditsy. The text "is a wife to blame if she doesn't know—"and "Mistakes many women often make" (Zonite) indicate the downgrading of women. The text indicates the lack of knowledge of women in comparison to men. If a man was to leave you because you didn't use a particular product, would you buy it? This advertisement says it all, use the product and keep the man, don't use it and lose him. You never know if you would be a victim of this type of advertisement if you were placed in this time.
[fig 2] (Zonite)
Around the 1950s, women began to be more accounted into the domestic role. Women are placed in advertisements that consumers associate them to (Peden).Women are often seen with 'rough house work' such as washing the dishes, as seen in [fig 3] (Mullins and Pearson 238). Are women meant to do all the dishes? – Apparently, yes. With the phrase "Get out of the kitchen sooner!" (Lux). Men are often seen 'behind the scenes' when it comes to domestic labour such as house cleaning, grocery shopping and babysitting. It shows that they are not the dominant role when it comes to home duties. The man in the advertisement is seen on a couch, having the dominate control to do what he wants.
[fig 3] (Lux)
Often, the differentiation between males and females in advertisements are distinct. Females are often seen with certain products, while men are seen with others. However, when men are seen with 'women jobs', they are often struggling or are in need of help. For example, in [fig 4] it shows the switching of the male and female roles back in the mid 1900s. If you look at the image now, women taking on men roles are considered normal; however, back in earlier days, the quote "Madam! Suppose you traded jobs with your husband?" (unknown) makes it seems totally obscure. It shows that women are dominant in the home duty department, where men lack the skills to do house chores. Who would have known that men and women would be able to switch roles in the future?
[fig 4] (unknown)
Beginning around the late 1900s, advertisements use strong female presence as subliminal and unconscious desires (Peden). Some advertisements use women that are irrelevant to the product, but use the female as a way to sell the product to the audience. For example, in [fig 5] the image shows that the product being sold is Skyy vodka. What does women have to do with alcohol? The woman in this image is objectified as a way to gain the attention of the male species. Women are often seen in provocative images in order to sell product. In this image, fetishism is involved. Women's body is often dismembered to place focus on specific body parts, to give the audience his or her way to build up a process to imagine the rest of the whole being ( Mulvey 23). In this case, the woman's breast is the main part of the body being objectified. In a way, this advertisement can attract the female species. By advertising the female with an 'ideal image', females may want to purchase the product in hopes to gain the same image as the female on the advertisement.
[fig 5] (Skyy)
Advertisements use women as a way to make other women insecure; therefore, they will find women whom are considered 'ideal' in today's society. When carefully analyzed or not, people know that advertisements are ways to gain the attention of people. They are images that try to manipulate people into buying their product; however, many people are guilty into 'falling into their trap'. If people did not follow advertisements, they wouldn't be making more. Advertisement is similar to Baudrillard's "it is no longer the territory that provides the model for the map, but the map that defines the territory" (Bordo 104). Images were once showed through process of development, but now, images are displayed as a form of an ideal for people to develop into. Today, advertisements are seen as map defining territories. Advertisement shows the audience what they can become if they use the products. For example, [fig 6] shows an image of a slim female after the use of the product, Hydroxycut. With the before and after image, it shows females the ideal body image they desire, as a representation of the map.
[fig 6] (Hydroxycut)
Without the support of people, advertisement would not have such advertisements on women. But being human, many are guilty of purchasing and engaging in the images that are shown. However, sometimes it makes people wonder why women do advertisements that degrade themselves. Everyone has their own reasons, some that may be relevant to money, while others may enjoy this type of publicity. Overall, from the images shown over the generation, portray the role o females over time. Females were once non existence when it came to advertisements, but now has become an object for the product.

Technology is an improved route to an unimproved target. It is to be cared that in 1960, as a result of industrial revolution in America and Russia, different international locations also began progressing within the filed of academic technology. With the usage of technological improvements, enterprise house owners and entrepreneur perceive their cash flow better, easy methods to handle their storage prices well and lets you save money and time.
When defining the baseline Advertising Program, it is useful to make the most of a simple framework that identifies and breaks down the Advertising Sphere into its core elements: 1. Research (major and secondary) 2. Market Planning and Strategizing (industry, market phase, utility, customer, product, competitors, pricing, packaging, etc.) three. Market Program Improvement (consistent with Strategic Business Plan and significant priorities) 4. Advertising, promotions and communications (numerous platforms and automobiles – company capabilities, positioning, buyer profiles, product protection, etc.) 5. Sales Growth (market, enterprise, sales, product, and many others.) 6. Product Management (market, technology and competition).
The new Technology Transformation Service applies fashionable methodologies and technologies to improve the public's experience with government by helping agencies make their providers extra accessible, efficient, and effective, and by itself offering providers that exemplify these values. The third stage of academic technology is linked with the event of mass media which in turn led to 'communication revolution' for tutorial functions.
When something new and "higher" is revealed, the "older" technology becomes more affordable, allowing it for use in educational settings, even when schools are on a tight price range. By aligning with technology, utilizing The MovieMaking Process as a studying and educating tool; human development, by means of pretend play, can claim authority over simulation and simulacrum, overruling them with a significant, shared expertise.
A contemporary instance is the rise of communication technology, which has lessened boundaries to human interaction and consequently has helped spawn new subcultures; the rise of cyberculture has at its basis the development of the Web and the pc 15 Not all technology enhances culture in a artistic approach; technology may also help facilitate political oppression and struggle via tools akin to guns.

In 1978, the BBC set itself the task of filming all of William Shakespeare's plays for television. The resulting productions, renowned for their loyalty to the text, utilised the best theatrical and television directors and brought great performances from leading contemporary actors. The Taming of the Shrew: Shakespeare's comic confrontation between the sexes is rich with sparkling wit and great characterisation. This production was admired for Jonathan Miller's fidelity to Elizabethan social mores and for an outstanding cast including John Cleese, whose portrayal of Petruchio won unanimous critical acclaim. The Merchant of Venice: The Merchant of Venice is one of Shakespeare's most famous comedies, celebrated for its captivating villain, Shylock. In a production full of contrasts and ambiguities, Warren Mitchell plays the moneylender with a finely balanced combination of wickedness and pathos – leaving the audience to decide whether he is a villain, a buffoon or a tragic hero. All's Well That Ends Well: All's Well That Ends Well won both BAFTA and RTS Awards and was considered one of the best of the BBC Shakespeare series. Director Elijah Moshinsky was said to have magnificently framed the scenes and highlighted the domestic nature of the play. The cast, particularly Celia Johnson as the Countess and Ian Charleson as an angry, sullen Bertram, also received great acclaim. Timon of Athens: In his most cynical work, Shakespeare explores the nature of money – its virtues and vices. In this production Jonathan Pryce gives an astonishing and acclaimed performance as Timon and is backed by an impressive cast under masterly direction. Anthony & Cleopatra: Themes of ambition, power, love, friendship and deception – laced with a fascinating portrait of self-destructive passion – fuel Shakespeare's romantic tragedy. In this production Jane Lapotaire is gripping in the sensual role of Cleopatra, while Colin Blakely takes the part of love-tortured Mark Antony. The Winter's Tale: This stylised production of one of Shakespeare's most haunting and enigmatic late works revels in its intense conflicts. An excellent cast (including Jeremy Kemp as a magnificent Leontes) highlight the tragic intensity and comic grace of the play. This unique collection has some of the finest dramas in the English language, each production a celebration of the greatest talents in contemporary British theatre and television. These plays feature the cream of the 20th century's acting talent. In this collection of Season Three delivers a further 6 classic adaptations from this award winning series including The Taming Of The Shrew, The Merchant Of Venice, All's Well That Ends Well, The Winter's Tale, Timon Of Athens, Antony And Cleopatra and starring theatre greats Jonathan Pryce,John Cleese, Jane Lapotaire.

Workers' Rights
Richie Venton: Tory workers' rights reforms are an admission of guilt, but not repentance
Richie Venton, Scottish trade union activist on the UK executive of Usdaw, takes a look at the UK Government's new workplace rights reform plans – and proposes alternatives in their place
WHEN is a radical new package of workers' rights nothing of the kind? When it's announced by a besieged Tory government, increasingly bombarded by public anger at the horrendous insecurity of jobs and workplace rights in Britain.
Scottish trade unionists say UK Govt workers' rights reforms go nowhere near far enough
Legislation includes the right of workers to "request a more predictable and stable contract", a proposal which the TUC has said is toothless
THE UK Government has introduced legislation which they say is the largest upgrade in workers' rights in a generation, but Scottish trade union representatives have slammed it as going nowhere near far enough.
Analysis: Viktor Orban is dismantling Hungarian democracy piece by piece - within the EU
The Hungarian autocrat creates new political courts system and attacks workers' rights – while benefiting from influx of European capital
AS Brexit chaos continues in Britain, it's easy to miss the wider crisis afflicting European society.
Nowhere is this more obvious or alarming than in Hungary, where Prime Minister Viktor Orban has for years pushed his opponents to the margins and eroded the space for dissent and opposition.
'Insulting': Unpaid workers slam Scottish Sun 'theft' article
Unite Hospitality workers demand over £3000 in holiday money
WORKERS demanding over £3000 in holiday pay have hit out at media coverage which they say implies they are thieves.
An article in the Scottish Sun covering an industrial dispute at LIQR bar in Glasgow conflates the demands of former employees at the bar with a theft of money and possibly stock in October this year.
