Summer Reading 2019
Saint John Vianney High School requires students to participate in its Summer Reading program in order to meet the philosophy and goals of the school and to enhance its curricular program.
Each academic department recommends book titles, and appropriate grade levels for these, for inclusion in the Summer Reading List. Students must select two books from their suggested grade level and the students will be tested on these in an essay format within the first few weeks of school. Evaluation of the essays follows a "pass/fail" rubric; students do not receive a specific grade on their Summer Reading Essay Tests but must pass these in order to receive credit for their required English course.
Students who are enrolled in SJVHS's Honors English program have additional reading and an additional assignment. AP-level students in English and US History have a separate reading list and must follow the guidelines for these courses.
In June of each academic year, Saint John Vianney High School posts, on its website, the book list of choices, directions for completing summer reading (including guidelines for writing the Honors English essays and for completing the AP English and AP US History reading requirements), and the rubric detailing "pass/fail" scoring guidelines. Please address any questions to Mrs. M. Kane at email@example.com
PLEASE NOTE: Digital and/or print copies of some of these books are available through the SJV Library and our OverDrive digital library. Our students are able to read digital books from our OverDrive selections on any device (tablets, iPads, Kindles, Nooks, smart phones, etc.). These digital devices will be allowed the day of the Summer Reading Test in September. These books are also available at your local library, Amazon.com, and local Barnes & Noble stores.

Purchasing a vehicle will be among the larger purchases you are making inside your existence, apart from a home. Property appreciates in value, but cars hardly ever do. You are able to though with a few research and understanding look for a vehicle that it's still worth that which you compensated for this when the time comes to market it. You may also earn some cash around the purchase! As is available heard before, something is just worth what someone would like to cover it.
Most vehicle consumers reference a magazine value to determine which a second hand vehicle may be worth. These figures are simply ballpark though and never a rigid guide. Really a few of the books are off by 1000s of dollars. Kelly Blue Book is usually excessive for normal vehicle values and lacking for collector cars. Individuals values aren't according to offered prices of real cars, but they are theoretical values.
A different way to determine used vehicle value would be to see what everybody else is having to pay for the similar vehicle. Search online to determine what individuals are requesting the cars, although not see actual selling cost. Dealers get access to software that enables these to begin to see the actual sales prices of each and every kind of vehicle offered at dealer auctions across the nation. However, you connect offered prices of cars too by utilizing eBay. Search the finished listings to obtain the offered cost. You may also take a look at reserve auctions in which the vehicle did not sell and find out how high the vehicle was bid. Whatever it had been bid as much as, is exactly what the vehicle may be worth.
Now you must documented sales for all sorts of vehicles and also have serious leverage against selling real estate for that vehicle you are thinking about buying. Demonstrate to them what that vehicle continues to be selling for on eBay after which start negotiating. Some might not need to haggle but keep going with it and someone will hop on the cost you are prepared to upgrade on.

The Ulster Banner
Understandable how flag error could be made.
Although I did not see the programme to which "Northern Ireland Nationalist" makes reference ( Writeback 1 April), I wish to support his view.
The "Ulster Banner" as it is sometimes called, is the flag of the "Executive Committee of the Privy Council of Northern Ireland", was used from 1953 to 1972 by the Government of Northern Ireland. After that government was dissolved under the Northern Ireland Constitution Act 1973, it ceased to have any official status. The flag was not created until 1953, and the design is based on the flag of the Irish province of Ulster.
This flag is based on the crest of Richard de Burgh, Earl of Ulster. There are however three significant differences between the "Ulster Banner" and Flag of the Province of Ulster:
1. The white background replaces the yellow background.
2. The six-pointed star replaces the shield representing the six Northern Ireland counties.
3. The inclusion of a crown.
I can understand the mistake which William Crawley may have made, as some academic websites contain this information.
Yours etc.
Brian Kennaway (Rev)
This letter appeared in the Belfast Telegraph on 2nd April 2015
NOTE: I have since seen the programme in question "Imagining Ulster episode 2", and William Crawley clearly states "The red hand of Ulster …. superimposed on the cross of St George". The cross is in fact that of Richard de Burgh, Earl of Ulster.
The six pointed star is not the Star of David as some suggest.

Worth Repeating
From Margaret and Helen, addressing the Congress of the United States:
To the morons running this country: If you would spend as much time working on the nation's problems as you spend trying to avoid paying taxes, you'd realize that most of us out here are neither red nor blue. We're varying shades of purple and we're fed up with your nonsense. Get together and figure a way out of this mess. Trust me - you don't want me to come up there and figure it out for you, because if I have to come up there your ass is going to be introduced to my foot. It may not be a gigantic foot like Ms. Coulter's but it will get the job done.Helen is reading Ann Coulter's new book (which I am leaving intentionally unlinked) and reviewing it for us as she goes, so none of the rest of us have to waste either our time or our money. Truly, she is performing a great National Service in doing this for us. It's taking its toll on her, though:
...I need to take a nap. This book is boring the hell out of me, but I only have one chapter left. I can't wait to move on to something more enjoyable than Ann Coulter - like irritable bowel syndrome. I mean it; really.

16 Quick Drama Games For KidsArt & Drama Just For Fun Quick Games
Quick drama games are great for warming up the body, bringing out children's unique creativity and having fun in the classroom. Here is a collection of 16 quick drama games that you might like to play with your young students.
1. Change Up:
Let's start things with a quick drama warmup for children. The game is simple – each time you say "Change!" you change the action and the kids try to keep up by mimicking your action. Start small with clapping your hands, then move on to patting your knees and so on until the actions become more extravagant and involve full body movements. Students will have to pay attention if they want to keep up.
2. Circle Crossings:
Stand your students in a circle and give them each a number 1, 2 or 3. Call a number and say how you'd like them to cross the circle to stand on the opposite side. For example, call "2 ballerinas" and all the number twos must cross the circle as a ballerina trying gracefully not to bump into each other.
3. Special Circle Crossings:
Same idea as Circle Crossings but instead of calling out the number and the action, simply say the number and let them decide how they'd like to cross the circle. Each student must cross in a different manner or movement than the others.
4. String Puppets:
Split the class into pairs; one puppet and one puppet master. They will take turns to lead and be led. The puppet master will pretend to tie string around a part of the puppet's body such as thumb, eyelash or nose and walk their puppet, who will act as if they were being dragged along by that body part. Swap roles after 1 minute.
5. Guided Mimes:
As the name suggests, guide the class through a variety of mimes. Inform them of the scenario before describing all the things that are happening and they will act it out. You can choose to join in or let them use their imagination skills. Fun drama scenarios include learning to juggle, making a sandwich and riding the big dipper.
6. Storm:
Perfect for releasing some built-up energy, this quick kid's drama game involves building a storm to a terrifying crescendo before dying down to silence. Get all students to stand up and copy your actions as you describe them:
- All was still and quiet
- A gentle breeze was heard (make quiet whooshing sounds)
- The breeze grew louder (whoosh louder)
- A patter of rain was heard (fingers tap the desk)
- It began to thunder and trees were swaying (move hands in the air)
Reverse the steps until all is still and quiet again with students back in their seats and sitting quietly.
7. Wink Bandit:
All students stand in a circle. Select one student to stand in the middle of the circle with eyes closed and play the role of detective. Point to one of the other students to play the killer. The role of the killer is to catch the eye of a student in the circle and wink at them, that student has then been killed and dies by falling to the floor in true Hollywood style. To start the game, the detective will open their eyes and attempt to identify the murderer while trying not to be winked at and killed in the process. An incorrect guess results in instant death! And watch out for sabotage! Anyone caught tricking the guesser must 'die' instantly.
8. Magic Furniture:
Select 5 students to perform this guided drama warmup activity. Tell them you will say the name of a common piece of furniture, that may or may not be found in a unique location, and they will pretend they are using that piece of furniture. Interesting furniture for funny acting can include a dentist's chair, a water bed and a wardrobe that's been locked. All 5 will act out the same scenario before you invite the next 5 to come up and perform.
9. Jump and Act:
Gather all students to form a circle. From the center of the circle, read an engaging story full of verbs and adverbs – or use a template of a story and make up parts as you go along. As you get to a part where the character performs an action, point to a student at random who must take a big jump into the circle and act out that part of the story before jumping back into place.
10. Lions, Witches and Wardrobes:
Form everyone in a circle and stand in the middle. Explain these three positions:
- Lions – Crawling on all fours, with very exaggerated shoulder movements like they are stalking their prey and making purring sounds.
- Witches – 'Flying' around the circle on their magic broom and casting spells with their magic wands and a wicked laugh.
- Wardrobes – Both arms by their side and moving them up and out as slow as they can while making creaking noise like a spooky door that needs to be oiled.
After explaining the three positions, point to the students in rapid, random order and name one of the three positions. The students then assumes that position. Continue pointing randomly for the students to quickly switch to their new role.
11. Groovy Gloves:
Seat everyone in a circle. Bring out a pair of gloves or mitten and put them on. Say to the class, "When I wear my groovy gloves I can …" and say what you can do when you are wearing your groovy gloves and then act out the action. For example, playing the piano or baking cakes. Then pass to the student next to you who will come up with and act out another magic use for the groovy gloves.
12. Sofa Treasure:
Tell the children that there is an old sofa at the front of the class that has been at the school for many years. Thousands of students, teachers, parents and pets have sat on the sofa and now there must be a million different things stuffed in the back of it. Have the kids 'reach in' one at a time and pull out and described a wacky item from the sofa.
13. Sense-ational:
Describe a scene to the children such as an animal farm or an amazing wildlife park. When you are describing the various parts of the scene, ask them to exaggerate an action involving one of their five senses. For example, when describing the barn, ask "What can you smell?" and they will pretend to take a big whiff before acting out how bad that smell is or how pleasant it made them feel.
14. Frozen in Time:
Like the amazing street performers or the Queen's guards at Buckingham Palace, your students will have to stand absolutely still and show no emotion for as long as they can. See who can remain in that frozen state like a statue the longest.
15. Jolly Jobs:
Write occupations on little cards for the kids to act out for 2 minutes. They can be bus drivers stopping to take on passengers, bakers taking a pie out the oven, doctors operating on a patient, etc. After two minutes, they must trade their card with the first person they come into contact with and start acting out the new occupation.
16. Alphabet Exit:
At the end of your kid's drama lesson, ask the students to line up. First in line will exit the class based on a noun starting with the letter A, then B, then C, etc. For example, the first person must leave the class as an airplane, the second as a Basketball player, and so on. This is also a good way for your class to leave in an (almost) orderly fashion.

As we head into the busy fourth quarter, the Board members and I are excited about the upcoming events and programs being presented by Tech Forum and our partners in the region.
The third annual Inspiring Women in STEM Conference is just two weeks away, and will feature interactive sessions that develop leadership skills and help women advance in their careers. The expert panels and speakers will focus on such topics as developing intergenerational teams, communicating to be heard, and harnessing disruptive technologies.
The Board and I are looking forward to seeing you at our Fall Back Into Networking mixer on October 21st, at Delaware Innovation Week in November, and at all the great events detailed below.
Best regards,
Rick Sommer
President, Technology Forum of Delaware
Inspiring Women in STEM Conference
The message coming out of a Technology Forum of Delaware roundtable on cybersecurity was clear – small and mid-sized businesses are more vulnerable than larger enterprises.
Panelists said that despite the headlines involving large organizations, like Target and Home Depot, small businesses may be more tempting targets, due to the lack of procedures and technologies aimed at protecting information.
Many businesses have progressed beyond common passwords for each computer and often have antivirus software and firewalls.
That may not be enough.
Women in scientific and engineering roles need more than technical skills for career success. We must demonstrate leadership, communicate effectively, develop collaborative teams, and innovate.
The 2015 Inspiring Women in STEM Conference will feature educational and interactive sessions to help you develop these critical skills. Join us on October 14th at the DuPont Country Club in Wilmington for this empowering professional development program.
You will be inspired by the journeys of extraordinary women leaders, connect with peers to expand your professional network, and be introduced to volunteer opportunities to mentor the next generation.

Part 3
- See there, he's coming out again of the parish house accompanied by that young lady who's whining and crying bitterly. Fr. Botod is caressing her, consoling her, but she is insensible and indifferent to everything; her moaning is subdued by fear, she obeys and follows the friar automatically. This time they are not alone but followed by several girls, vyingly beautiful, some of them very young, others bigger, but all of them are very pretty and well-dressed.
- Now he gets into the omnibus with them; they're going for a drive and to the country for lunch.
-But who are those girls and why are they in Fr. Botod's parish house?
- They are his canding-canding.
- What are canding-canding?
- In the Castilian language the expression can mean or it is equivalent to kids, she-kids.
- If you're not going to explain it clearly, it is Greek to me. Why does the bedeviled friar have in his possession those innocent creatures and why are such angelic girls called she kids?
- They're simply called she-kids because, as time goes on, when they reach marriageable age . . . do you hear, do you understand now? He has them in his possession because they are the daughters of poor families. Under the pretext of educating them, teaching them the Christian Doctrine, the catechism, how to read, write and other things and deceiving their unfortunate parents, he takes them willingly or by force.
- But is there no woman teacher in this town?
- Yes, there is but the old woman and Fr. Botod are hand in glove,
- This is unheard of, horrible! But why don't they denounce to the authorities these barbarities of Bobooo or of that lascivious friar?
- Who'll accuse the Father? In the town no one will dare touch him. Woe to him who would dare!
- Is this common, general, in Philippine towns?
- I don't dare say so because since I was born, I haven't gone out of this town; but by what I have heard from others, I venture to say that it is, it is general.
- An affront! What baseness! ... So that those beautiful rosebuds perform for that cynical friar the same role as the Oriental dancers in India?
- I don't know who are the Oriental dancers, for that reason I can't say they're the same, I'm tempted to ask you to explain to me a little of the history of India, but above all of the Oriental dancers, because I'm curious to know the sad role those poor girls play there.
- Gladly. Surely the friars here, considering their behaviour toward the Filipino people, considering their villainy, are nothing' more than a rough, loathsome copy of the Brahmans OJ' priests and the rajahs of India.
"According to legend the Oriental dancers are of heavenly origin, being descendants of the apsaras, courtesans or dancers or India's heaven. The poets believe that they came from the sea, while the devas, spirits of inferior regions, and the azuras, evil spirits, constantly fighting with the gods, striking the white waves of foam, trying to get the amrita or ambrosia.
"Immediately after they were born, they began dancing on the waves, and they were so beautiful and seductive that the devas and azuras, forgetting their tasks, fought each other fiercely for their possession.
"The victorious devas took them to their chief Indra who made them dancers of heaven, joining them to the gandharbasor heavenly musicians, the only ones who until then had had the privilege of entertaining the court.
"One of these goddesses, having had intercourse with a mortal, who had been seduced by her songs, gave birth to a girl who, unable to live in heaven on account of her earthly origin, was entrusted to some Brahmans who educated her inside a pagoda, and there since her early years instinctively began dancing before the statues of the gods.
"From her numerous love affairs she had seven daughters whom she taught how to dance like her in the ceremonies of the temple,and three sons who naturally became musicians."
"From them descended the devadassi or dancers and the present musicians of the pagados.
"The dancers never marry. Enlisted in the service of the gods, they cannot be in man's power; but they were allowed full and complete liberty to enter into temporary relations with men, provided they would never deny their favors to the Brahmans upon whom they depended.
"Originally they should never give themselves to men other than the Brahmans, and those who observed that law were considered virgins.
"The Brahmans were the first to prostitute their harem for profit."
- You're right my friend. The comparison is apt: the Oriental dancers and the canding-canding have a fine though sad similarity; they performed the same functions; those for the Brahmans and rajahs and these for the Reverend Parish Priest. There is no difference at all. While those were consecrated at birth to the Indian gods like the Vestal Virgins, these here are canding-canding against the family will, pulled out of their homes through deceits, false promises and almost always by superior force.
- It's obvious you feel the blow, so much infamy pierces your heart.
- I'm not sorry for myself; I'm sorry for my people, for my vilified country. It cost the parents of these unhappy and unfortunate creatures a flood of bitter tears and mental aberration; there's no martyrdom comparable to theirs; nor anguish like theirs as they find themselves powerless to prevent the sacrifice of the innocence of their dearly beloved children.Fray Botod Part | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |

By Manhattan InstitutePosted in Pharmacy TechnicianOn December 15, 2015
Listed as one of the U.S. Department of Labor's "Bright Outlook" occupations, employment of Pharmacy Technicians is projected to grow 22% within the next 7 years with 100,000 or more job openings.
Learn more about the duties of a Pharmacy Technician: what is an average workday like, what career opportunities might you have, and how to get certified and employed.
Pharmacy Technicians work directly with pharmacists, although the duties may be limited by state laws. As a Pharmacy Tech, you'll be responsible for assisting Pharmacists in providing medication, other health products and information, and educating patients.
Clerical tasks, such as assisting patients with insurance forms, managing inventory, handling money, using computers and answering telephones are also some of your duties as a Pharmacy Technician. You will also be performing repetitive tasks such as labeling bottles, counting pills, and preparing prescribed medication for patients.
Being a Pharmacy Technician can be stressful at times, especially when a patient's well-being is at stake. You are expected to take directions from the Pharmacist, and yet, you must also be able to work independently.
Accuracy is critical to pharmacy duties, even in stressful or emergency situations. Along with 6-8 hours of standing on your feet per day, as a Pharmacy Technician, you must possess good manual dexterity and provide excellent customer service skills. Additionally, you must be able to interact well with other pharmacy co-workers and other healthcare professionals.
Taking a Pharmacy Technician course can help you prepare for a long career in this growing field.

1. Sensitivity to hair care products, or contact dermatitis.
Regular shampoos may contain chemicals that irritate a sensitive scalp. Using a natural homemade shampoo, like the following apple cider recipe, may be a better option.
2. A yeast-like fungus, or malassezia:
Apple cider vinegar supposedly has anti-fungal properties, and thus may (key word is "may") combat dandruff caused by fungi.
3. Irritated, oily skin, or seborrheic dermatitis:
Apple cider vinegar mixed with lemon juice may combat an oily scalp.
There are many other causes of dandruff, so it is best to speak with your dermatologist to determine the source and find a proper solution. Whether an apple cider vinegar shampoo is the answer, I am not sure, but here is the recipe:
*1 oz. Olive oil
*1 Egg
*1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
*1 teaspoon Pure Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV)
- Combine the given ingredients into a blender for about a minute. Then shampoo as usual.
- Lean your head over a sink and carefully pour the mixture over your entire scalp.
- Wrap your head in a towel for 15 minutes.
- Unwrap head and then wash hair as usual.
You may want to try another oil in place of olive oil. The lady I met uses sage oil to further combat and cleanse an oily scalp and to minimize the scent of the apple cider vinegar; she skips on the lemon juice.

The Nexus One is out and it's faster than the iPhone and the Droid, but speed isn't everything and the iPhone has beat all competitors in one of the most important areas – touchscreen accuracy.
A test carried out by labs.MOTO.com pitted the iPhone, HTC Droid Eris, Motorola Droid, and Google Nexus One against each other in a simple touchscreen test. MOTO used a line drawing application that would clearly show which smartphone has the most accurate capacitive touchscreen.
The straighter the lines created when a finger is passed over the touchscreen the more accurate it is. As you can see from the image above the lines on the iPhone are much straighter than all the other smartphones and MOTO concludes it has the best touchscreen. They also note that:
It takes finesse to create a touchscreen system that's pleasant to use, because touchscreens require seamless integration between hardware components, software algorithms, and user-interface design. If a manufacturer cuts corners or flubs any of the critical elements, the user's experience with a touchscreen product is likely to suffer.
MOTO also conclude that the amount of pressure used has an effect and a lighter touch produces more artifacts. Accuracy at the edge of a touchscreen is also a factor and something MOTO admit is hard to tune, but the Nexus One seems to have the best performance in that regard.
You can see the tests being carried out in the video below:
Read more at Moto, found via AppleInsider
Matthew's Opinion
The performance of the touchscreen is one of the most important areas of a smartphone. It doesn't matter how fast a device is; if using the touchscreen is frustrating then everything else that's great about the gadget doesn't matter.
Apple should jump on tests like this and start pointing out where it has an advantage. The competition in the smartphone arena just went up a notch with the Nexus One, so Apple do need to use every advantage it has to ensure users don't start switching on the promise of a better experience. I'm sure many users won't, but start telling everyone your touchscreen is better and it puts doubt in the minds of those sitting on the fence and about to choose.
The MOTO results are not conclusive and will be challenged. One example has already appeared in video form showing that straight lines on the Droid are very straight, but then we don't know what the differences are between MOTO's controlled test and this test from Vimeo user Michel Lourenco. One thing we do notice is his line drawing is very quick which could account for the straighter lines due to less control points being created.
If you have used two of these devices we'd love to hear your thoughts on the difference between the touchscreens. Is the iPhone a clear winner?

Purpose of the Elevation Certificate
- Elevation Certificate Form
(The Florida Floodplain Managers Association is very pleased to announce that FEMA has published a fillable and updated version of the new Elevation Certificate (expiration date Nov 30, 2018) in PDF format. This was just made available June 16, 2016 on their website.)
The Elevation Certificate is an important administrative tool of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). It is to be used to provide elevation information necessary to ensure compliance with community floodplain management ordinances, to determine the proper insurance premium rate, and to support a request for a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) or Letter of Map Revision based on fill (LOMR-F).
The Elevation Certificate is required in order to properly rate Post-FIRM buildings, which are buildings constructed after publication of the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), located in flood insurance Zones A, AE, AH, VE, V (with BFE), AR. The Elevation Certificate is not required for Pre-FIRM buildings unless the building is being rated under the optional Post-FIRM flood insurance rules.
As part of the agreement for making flood insurance available in a community, the NFIP requires the community to adopt floodplain management regulations that specify minimum requirements for reducing flood losses. One such requirement is for the community to obtain the elevation of the lowest floor (including basement) of all new and substantially improved buildings, and maintain a record of such information. The Elevation Certificate provides a way for a community to document compliance with the community's floodplain management ordinance.

boies, olsen, and gay marriage
8 comments:
Thanks for staying on top of this issue. I would not have noticed it otherwise. An excellent and literate argument, as important for its content as for its medium (WSJ).ReplyDelete
- Chris K.July 20, 2009 at 2:39 PM
Cogent and compelling piece. Equal rights and due process are what it's all about.ReplyDelete
Check out fairwisconsin.com to get involved in WI.
Originally, I was against gay marriage. However, based on what Boies & Olsen are doing, I have come around. BUT, I still don't think gays should be able to get married with religious ceremonies of that religion is opposed to it. In other words, if the Catholic Church is against it & will not perform any, then none should be allowed recognized in the Catholic Church. Elighten me, are gays wanting to be able to marry in a particluar church if that church is opposed to it, or just civil marriages?ReplyDelete
i don't think gays should be able to get married in churches that are against it either.
i'm not catholic, so i don't know the answer to this. but how does the catholic church feel about athiests who are married? or jews? or muslims?
i can't speak for "gays" as a whole. but i can tell you that, in my opinion, the gay marriage fight is about civil rights, not religious ones.
- Chris K.July 20, 2009 at 4:48 PM
The issue at hand is the legal contract of marriage and the rights one is afforded as a result of that little piece of paper after it's filed at the courthouse. No church would or should be compelled to marry anyone (and I can't imagine a couple wanting to get married in a church that doesn't embrace and support their union anyway?!). Each church would decide on its own which ceremonies it would perform, just as churches do now.ReplyDelete
Thanks, Tony -ReplyDelete
Atheists, jews & muslims can't get married in the Catholic Church. I was talking with respect to marriages in a particluar religion, be it Catholic, or whatever. I agree & I do believe it is about civil rights, as well, but religions should also be able to ban those types of marriages inside their own religion, wether they be muslim or jewish, or catholic, etc. Now, whether those religions should accept gay marriage, that's another question. I favor woman & married priests, but look how much that is resisted....
- christopherJuly 20, 2009 at 6:52 PM
TOC raises a point which I think it would benefit the proponents of same sex marriage to loudly and repeatedly address. The movement to date has not demanded the participation of religious organizations. If the movement can assure those faithful that oppose this measure that their religious institutions will not be pressed into service to accomodate these rights, the movement is likely to have far fewer opponents.ReplyDelete
Having said that, there is ample evidence that the movement has tried to make it clear that it does not demand church recognition of these marriages. Just pointing out that this seems to be the last bastion of opposition.
- christopherJuly 20, 2009 at 6:56 PM
The real fear, I think, is that if gay marriage is legal, and it is illegal to discriminate on the basis of marital status, and that status affords certain rights such as insurance benefits, you run the risk of the churches being sued to provide such benefits to partners they believe have no right to them. Alternately they coudl decide not to offer any benefits (causing employment to plummet for them) or not hire anyone who's gay (which is discrimination).ReplyDelete
It's a no win situation for them.

New Delhi: Car makers padded up for the festive season as wholesale deliveries to dealerships saw a growth of 9% in September, the eleventh consecutive month of growth.
With the festive season beginning from October 13, companies have been stocking up dealerships with new vehicles in view of higher demand. RBI's recent cut in interest rates is also expected to be a booster for the demand. Sales in September (as measured by wholesale deliveries) stood at 1.7 lakh units against 1.5 lakh units in September last year, according to numbers released by Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (Siam).
"Companies such as Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai and Honda have been doing good due to new product launches, which is driving growth in the passenger car segment," Siam deputy director general Sugato Sen said.
Models such as Honda's Jazz and Hyundai's Creta have got good response. Maruti is set to launch a new premium compact car 'Baleno' later this month, which will compete with Hyundai's i20. Motorcycle sales, however, continued to remain in the negative territory with sales in September declining by 3% as compared to the same period a year ago.

Shoulder Instability
Shoulder Instability Fundamentals
The ball and socket joint of the shoulder is held together by ligaments, muscles and bones. When these structures become over stretched or injured, the shoulder becomes unstable.
The most common cause of shoulder instability is trauma. When a dislocation occurs, the restraining structures of the joint are injured. Contact sports such as football and downhill skiing are common causes of shoulder dislocation, and the condition occurs frequently among young athletes. However, household trauma such as falling down stairs, off a bicycle or while walking along the sidewalk can be damaging enough to dislocate a shoulder. Additionally, some people have a genetic predisposition to shoulder instability. Finally, repetitive activities such as throwing sports and swimming can gradually overstretch the ligaments, resulting in instability and dislocation. Fractures of the shoulder's ball and socket may occur, which also contribute to shoulder instability.
Athletes can take steps to prevent shoulder instability. Maintaining good rotator cuff and shoulder blade strength is important in decreasing the risk of ligament injury. Learning correct techniques of pitching and throwing is also important.
What are the symptoms?
The most characteristic symptom of shoulder instability is a sense that the shoulder is about to come out of place or that the shoulder has jumped back into its socket. This sensation may or may not be accompanied by pain, but it is typically uncomfortable. Occasionally, a person may feel numbness or a tingling down the arm.
In addition, the patient may experience clicking, catching or looseness of the shoulder with daily activities and particularly with sports that require overhead throwing or swimming.
Sometimes, the ball of the joint will separate completely from socket, and the ball will not spontaneously fall back into place. Severe pain, deformity of the shoulder and a sense of paralysis of the arm may occur as a result. Manipulating the arm into place may require physician assistance.
How is it treated?
The shoulder joint should be put back into place promptly. Immediately after the injury, ice and a sling make the patient more comfortable. In a young and athletic person the chance of redislocation is usually high. This risk decreases with age.
Often, shoulder instability is subtle and repeated examinations are necessary to establish and confirm the diagnosis. It is particularly important for the physician to examine the uninvolved shoulder and to compare the patient's normal ligament status to the symptomatic shoulder when coming to a decision regarding treatment.
Immediately after injury, the patient should ice and rest the shoulder in a sling. X-rays will help to determine whether any bone injury has occurred as a result of the dislocation. Following a period of a few days' rest, the patient should begin an exercise program to strengthen the shoulder muscles.
Most patients wear the sling for one to two weeks to decrease acute shoulder pain. After the sling is removed, the patient should avoid extremes of motion over the next four weeks. After this period of time, a progressive rehabilitation program can begin.
If there are continuing symptoms that interfere with sleeping, daily activities, work, or sports participation, surgical stabilization may be required.
The goal of shoulder surgery involves reattaching torn ligament tissue to shorten or tighten the stretched ligament tissue. The surgeries performed can be done by either arthroscopic or open methods, but the goal of the surgery is the same.
After surgery, the arm is kept in a sling for four to six weeks. You are encouraged to keep the elbow/wrist and hand mobile during this time while the tissues in the shoulder heal into place. Physical therapy to gradually regain range of motion and strength is commenced after surgery.

London lights and Christmas market walk.
On Wednesday 06 December 2017 16 AoH members met at Charing Cross Station at 1500 ready to hit the lights etc. Led by Judo Mike & Taxi Steve we set off up The Strand to Covent Garden where we split up to have a look around. The whole area was nicely decorated with lots of lights and Christmas baubles etc. We had a look around the market stalls inside the main building, listened to the opera singer giving her all in the café downstairs and also visited the Jubilee Market opposite. Meeting up again we made our way back through to The Strand and then through the main entrance into the courtyard of Somerset House where we gathered by the ice-rink hoping to see lots of people falling over! After watching aspiring Torvill and Deans for a while we visited the main building of Somerset House where Fortnum & Mason had taken over most of the rooms and filled them with their Christmas offerings. Some of the group were very tempted by the £100 box of chocolates but were worried that they might get mugged on the way home. After admiring the decorations and all the interesting items on display inside we crossed the Thames and set off along the Embankment towards the South Bank, having a look at the German Market stalls on the way. At the Southbank Complex we were tempted by a vast choice of places to eat and after some discussion (and a bit of forceful persuasion with Judo (I don't like pasta) Mike we went into a Strada and managed to get 2 tables together for the 14 of us that were eating. We had a nice meal and then made our way back across the river to Charing Cross where we all caught trains home just before 2000. Another very successful AoH outing.

Training for students and adults about the warning signs of youth suicide and how to intervene before violence or self-harm occurs. All training is paid for by Sandy Hook Promise.
Training for students and adults about the warning signs of youth suicide and how to intervene before violence or self-harm occurs. All training is paid for by Sandy Hook Promise.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for American teenagers and many adolescents suffer in silence. Those who reach out for help tend to confide in their friends and peers, who are often unequipped to intervene. By teaching middle and high school students to recognize the warning signs of depression and suicide, we are building their capacity for empathy, social responsibility, and social activism, leading to safer schools and communities, and providing them with vital knowledge they can use for the rest of their lives.
Suicide is preventable; everyone has a role in saving lives. Youths have a tremendous amount of influence in each other's lives, and we can leverage power that by teaching students the warning signs of depression and suicide. In doing so, youths are empowered to ACT, building safer schools and communities.
At its core, the SOS Signs of Suicide Prevention Program (SOS Program) relies on three easy-to-remember steps, denoted by the acronym ACT:
The SOS program uses an educational curriculum to teach students to recognize the symptoms of depression and suicide, and can be implemented by existing school personnel within one class period. The main teaching tool is a video that shows dramatizations and real life stories of hope about the right and wrong ways to react when a friend exhibits certain behaviors. The program includes a mental health self-assessment that screens every student for depression and suicide. The program also includes training and educational materials for faculty, staff and parents.
An enlightened student body means earlier detection and increased help-seeking behavior. Research has shown that the SOS Program, which is listed on SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices, improves students' knowledge and adaptive attitudes about suicide risk and depression, and reduces actual suicide attempts by 40%-64% in randomized controlled studies (Aseltine et al., 2007 & Schilling et al., 2016).
The SOS Program is designed for all middle and high school students. Additionally, school faculty and staff, parents, and community members receive training as trusted adults who have a critical role in reducing stigma, promoting help-seeking and responding to youth in need.
Evidence-based suicide prevention programming benefits the entire community. Students and school staff learn critical and potentially life-saving skills, parents are encouraged to advocate for their children's health, and the community becomes more resilient overall.
Students learn:
Schools receive guidance on:

Training for children and teens on how to recognize signs, especially in social media, of an individual who may be a threat to them self or others and say something to a trusted adult to get them help.
Over the last 25 years, research has revealed that in 7 out of 10 acts of gun violence, a friend(s) were told that an act of violence would be committed or may take place. In one study, it was reported that in 4 out of 5 school shootings, the attacker had told people of his plans ahead of time.
The problem is that no one is taking action with this information to stop the act of violence before it starts. Imagine if one of those people took action. How many tragedies could be prevented? How many lives would be saved?
Say Something is an education and awareness program that provides tools and practices to:
Parents, students, educators, administrators, community-based organizations and other adults who come into contacts with children. The program is designed in a manner for training, promotion and implementation in schools, libraries and local community based organizations as well as in-home.
Say Something will benefit children age 10+, educators, administrators and community based organization leaders as well as parents. By building a culture of "looking out for one another" and reporting possible threats of violence when someone sees, reads or hears something (especially within social media), entire communities will become safer and lives will be saved.
Say Something informs and educates about observable warning signs (written, spoken, photographed, in video) that are often present in behavior that could lead to someone hurting themselves or others as well as educates individuals on how to safely and anonymously report potential threats. Additionally, the program provides tools on how best to promote and reinforce Say Something.

Training for schools and community organizations on how to identify, assess and respond to threatening behaviors before they escalate to violence.
Each year, there are approximately 500,000 acts of gun-related violence including crime, suicide and accidental shooting. SHP believes all gun violence is preventable and that until we focus on identifying, intervening and helping individuals who display at-risk behaviors (versus a gun-only focus), we will likely not decrease the number of acts nationally.
So how do we prevent it? Research supports that nearly all violent / suicidal individuals made threats and/or gave off signs and signals before they hurt themselves or others. The threats, signs and signals can take place over years or days. If we identify and intervene – we can prevent gun-related violence. The problem is how do we know what is a threat or "sign and signal" that possibly poses an imminent or longer-term danger? How do we evaluate these threats, signs and signals? What do we do with them once they are seen, heard or read?
SHP believes schools and community-based organizations should be trained to identify and assess individual threats, signs and signals.
Threat Assessment & Intervention is a national evidenced-based* violence prevention training program researched and developed by Dewey G. Cornell, Ph.D., a forensic clinical psychologist and Professor of Education at the Curry School of Education at the University of Virginia. This program exists in over 1,000 schools and organizations in the U.S. SHP has partnered with Dr. Cornell to provide and train schools and community-based organizations on Threat Assessment & Intervention nationwide.
Threat Assessment & Intervention involves (a) identifying threats, signs and signals to commit a violent act, (b) determining the seriousness of the threat, sign or signal, and (c) developing intervention plans that protect potential victims that address the underlying problem or conflict that initiated the behavior. It is designed for schools and community-based organizations.
This program helps create safer, healthier homes, schools and communities by accessing help for individuals who may pose an imminent/longer term threat to themselves or others. While gun violence (gun-related crime and suicide) is SHP's focus, this program helps identify and prevent alcohol and drug use, physical abuse, dropping out of school, criminal activity to name a few.
Schools (K-12 educators, administration, mental wellness/counseling support who interact with children and youth) and community-based organizations (leaders who interact with children and youth).
At-risk children and youth will benefit most. School and community-based learning environments will improve with the added layer of safety.
Additional published research findings from tests and studies:
Threat Assessment & Intervention offers a problem-solving, structured approach to evaluate the viability of incoming threats and equips teams to intervene based on the degree of the threat, sign or signal level (defined as any form of expressed communication whether through verbal, written, or gesture of the intent to harm self or others).
Each school establishes a multidisciplinary team based on its existing staff of school administrators, mental health, and law enforcement professionals (schools may adapt team composition to fit their staffing). Training:
Threat Assessment & Intervention provides all steps, forms, etc to train and implement. It has been peer-reviewed and refined based on hundreds of hours of training and implementation.

Research-based Programs and Practices to help protect children from gun violence in your home, schools and community.
Teaches children, teens and young adults how to be more socially inclusive and connected to one another. All training is paid for by Sandy Hook Promise.
Social isolation is the feeling of being left out, lonely and treated like you are invisible. At every school and in every community there are children who feel like they have no friends and quietly suffer through each day – especially at lunchtime and other moments where friends gather together.
Young people who are isolated can become a victim of bullying, violence and/or depression.
As a result, many further pull away from society, struggle with learning and social development and/or choose to hurt themselves or others.
Start With Hello (SWH) is designed to bring individuals and communities together to foster looking out for and caring for one another.
SWH asks students, educators, parents and other community leaders who interact with children to take a simple, yet incredibly powerful, action at lunch – making sure that no one eats alone. This simple action, when taught and put into practice, instills the power and reward of social inclusion – that when you see someone alone at lunch (or across any other experience), say hello, introduce yourself, ask them to join you.
SWH delivers a toolkit to help schools and community based organizations (CBOs) implement the program. The toolkit includes events, activities and actions that can be taken to instill the SWH concept and overarching message of inclusion and community.
SHP and SWH are available to help train schools and CBOs. Additionally, there is a downloadable, step by step program booklet for students, teachers and community leaders.
SWH program is available at no cost - all of the resources are available online. The cost of any additional materials – such as flyers and event costs – would be covered by SHP upon request.
Start With Hello is appropriate for grades 2-12. Students, teachers and CBO leaders should participate.
Short-term: SWH will benefit children, faculty, administrators and community based organization leaders involved with the program.
Long-term: entire communities will benefit as generations begin to incorporate this community connectedness and inclusion practice.
The importance of inclusion and the tragic results that can result when people are excluded. Children, teachers and CBO leaders are given tools on how to break the ice, break down barriers and get to know one another (interpersonal interaction) as well as how to create and sustain an inclusive culture / community.

Research-based Programs and Practices to help protect children from gun violence in your home, schools and community.
Start Point
People who are at-risk of hurting themselves or others often show signs and signals before an act of violence takes place. When you don't know what to look for, it can be easy to miss signs, or dismiss them as unimportant, sometimes with tragic consequences.
It's important to know that one warning sign on its own does not mean a person is planning an act of violence. But when many connected or cumulative signs are observed over a period of time, it could mean that the person is heading down a pathway towards violence or self-harm. By knowing the signs, you have the power to intervene and get help for that person. Your actions can save lives.

I know what you're thinking…then why in the World did I name my brand after it? Am I right?!
Well once I started researching and using essential oils I quickly discovered just how awesome (and versatile) lavender is. I mean, it can be used for just about everything! It has to be one of the most widely used and friendly essential oils there are.
All About Lavender:
- The three most common types of lavender EOs are: French Lavender, Bulgarian Lavender, and Spike Lavender.
- Lavender essential oil is extracted from the tiny purple flowers of the plant through steam distillation.
- It's fragrance is described as "herbaceous, sweet, floral, fresh, and clean."
- The aroma of Spike Lavender is more herbaceous, almost coniferous, and less floral than Bulgarian or French Lavender.
- Lavender is very gentle and [in most cases] is considered safe for everyone.
- Mostly widely known for its ability to calm, soothe, and promote sleep.
- It is a great oil for the skin, used for treating acne, evening complexion, soothing dry skin, healing bug bites and stings, rashes, and relieving sun burns.
So since it was so beneficial and effective, I would use it here and there, trying to hide it in with other essential oils.
And guess what happened…before I knew it I began actually enjoying its aroma and was using it all on its own! I may even go as far as to say I LOVE it now! In fact, I use it for just about everything.
Keep reading...
- Combined with bergamot or sweet orange for a relaxing diffuser blend.
- As a headache remedy diluted in a roller bottle with peppermint and frankincense.
- Diluted and applied topically to mild burns.
- In a spray with green tea and peppermint to relieve sunburns.
- In my allergy relief inhaler with peppermint and lemon (the famous LLP blend)!
- Relieve digestive discomfort by rubbing a small diluted amount clockwise over the abdomen.
- As a sniffle stopper along with white fir and sweet orange, either diffused or diluted and dabbed under the nose.
- In lavender-scented bath salts for a relaxing and de-stressing soak.
- To spot treat acne when combined with tea tree.
- As a fabric or room freshener spray with lemon.
- BONUS: I keep a pre-diluted bottle of lavender in my purse (ok on a keychain in its own fancy case) for those instances that "oh I need an oil...lavender should do it!" (yes...I'm that lady).
And in case you were not entirely convinced yet. I'll just leave this right here...

Ever wanted to ask sports personality a question? Now's your chance. They will answer readers' questions in The Denver Post's "Fan Mail" feature.
In this installment, University of Colorado junior quarterback Tyler Hansen tackles readers' questions about the CU's rivalry game against Colorado State, what it's like throwing to so many receivers and handling the pressure that comes with playing for coach Dan Hawkins.
Keep an eye out for next week's installment, when former Broncos star tight end Shannon Sharpe fields fan's questions. Send your Qs in an email to email@example.com.
Tyler, congrats! All the Buff alums are so happy you are our starting QB. I grew up in Fort Collins but my heart belongs to CU and Boulder. Why do the Rams come out onto the field when they play us with more intensity? And the Buffs, like last year, start like it's an easy win? We should be stomping on them. Good luck and stay intense!
–Abby, Fort Collins
Tyler Hansen: Abby, I totally agree with you about last year's CSU game at Folsom Field. Colorado State came out with more intensity and passion and we got hit in the mouth from the start and did not react.
I do believe that rivalries are always close. And they're difficult games to win – especially the CU-CSU game because there's so much that rides on the game. And with it being the first game of the year, it makes it that much harder.
As a leader on this team I can assure you that we will come out and play our game and will have that passion and intensity that we lacked in years prior. We have nothing but respect for CSU and look forward to the game at Invesco Field.
Tyler, what single part of your game do you feel has improved the most from last November to this August?
–Steve, Fort Collins
Hansen: Steve, I feel I have taken a much different approach to my game this season.
The biggest change is that I've made huge strides in the mental part of the game. So much emphasis is put on the physical part of football, but the mental part of the game is the most important.
I now know protections, know the offense entirely, and have a solid knowledge of defenses. With this new knowledge of the sport, I can just go out and play.
Admit it, who is the best athlete in your family? Best means athlete's accomplishments, championships, etc.
–Pam, Murrieta, Calif.
Hansen: Haha. My mother wants me to answer this question the "right" way by stating that she is the best athlete in the family. But I'm the only one still competing. So who knows what will happen in the next two years. A championship maybe?
Congratulations on working so hard and being one of a long line of athletic QBs at CU. I am confident you are our best chance to succeed at the position. There has been a lot of criticism for the head coach. He seems to stay positive even in the face of his lack of success. What other qualities does Coach Hawkins have that you feel will serve him for the team to turn it around this year? And how does he get you "psyched" for the opener at CSU?
–Terry, Mancos
Hansen: Terry, Coach Hawkins is a great man and a great coach. He has won everywhere he has been and I truly believe that he and our incredible staff will turn this thing around and will finally get some wins on Saturdays.
I was once told that a coach is only as good as his talent. And in years prior to this year, CU had a young and inexperienced team. We finally have the experience and the talent to do something special this year.
Also, going 3-9 last year provides much of the motivation we need for not only CSU but all the games on our schedule.
We keep reading locally that CU will be an improved team. But all of the national sports writers are predicting another non-bowl season. Why do you think there is such a disparity in analysis of your team and what can change the perception of what you are trying to accomplish?
–Mark, Englewood
Hansen: Mark, I do believe we can – and will – do something special this year and surprise the world. I think everyone who has seen our team recently in fall camp and in the spring truly sees something different.
The national sports writers and other national media outlets look at our performance from last year and base their opinion off our 3-9 record. But they do that with most teams in our situation. We can easily change this perception by winning.
You have had to give up what was to be a redshirt season two years in a row, but I've never read any of your thoughts on that. What were you feeling?
–Brian, San Diego
Hansen: To gain the experience was a blessing. There are no guarantees that you will ever play a full season, and you never know what will happen tomorrow.
So if the opportunity arises, you take it. It's not like I lost my redshirt either year in the 10th game of the season. Most quarterbacks don't start until their junior season anyway, so I am grateful for the opportunities I've had and am looking forward to the season because of the experience I was able to gain.
How is my truck?
–Frederick, Murrieta, Calif.
Hansen: Your truck is great, father. Haha!
Tyler, it sounds like you've become a team leader this summer after putting together 7-on-7 drills and separating yourself in practice. How do you plan to translate this leadership to the field on gameday? What do you need to do as a leader to get your team to the next level and finish games with a victory?
–Chris, Denver
Hansen: Chris, I believe we have everything in place to perform and get some wins on Saturdays. Now we have to just go out there and do it. As a leader on this team, I am stressing to everyone to do their own job and do it well. If we can control what we can control, we will be fine and everyone will be happy and proud to be a Buff.
Tyler, so many people today expect instant gratification. If they don't get their way, they leave for what they perceive to be greener pastures. Please let us know what you did to stay motivated and keep yourself working hard to eventually be named the 2010 CU starting QB.
–Steve Gruenler, Parker
Hansen: Steve, I believe great things come to those who wait and earn them. I knew I chose the right place when I was a senior in high school in 2008 and I know great things await the University of Colorado in the near future.
My dream growing up was to be the starting quarterback at a big university and I know most people don't get an opportunity to start until their junior year, so I stayed patient and kept working toward my goal and it all worked out. Now I'm working toward my next goal – getting a win on September 4th.
Will we see the Buffs running the option on occasion this year? It seems to be making a comeback, and the Buffs seem to have the personnel for it. I suppose it's a difficult scheme to implement and run on only a limited basis. Lots of us long-time fans would love to see it again.
–Geoff, Dallas
Hansen: Geoff, I do know the option attack was a big part of the history of CU football and believe me, I love listening to Coach (Darian) Hagan tell me stories. If done right, the option can be very difficult to defend.
With what we have on offense and with all the athletes we finally have, we will use a wide variety of things to attack an opposing defense. But I have to say it would be fun to learn the option from Hagan.
I just booked my flight from Fort Lauderdale to San Francisco to watch you guys in your first road game at Cal. What do you have to do differently to turn things around and start winning on the road this season?
–Mike, Coconut Creek, Fla.
Hansen: Mike, I too am very excited to travel to my home state of California and play the Bears. But to get a road win, we have to make plays early and believe in ourselves.
I thought last year against Oklahoma State we were close to changing our road attitude. But this year we know the importance of winning on the road and are determined to get some victories.
Tyler, a talented and experienced offensive line anchored by Nate Solder and Ryan Miller will obviously have a major impact on the team's ability to run the ball. But how big of an effect on the running game do you expect from having a cadre of wide receivers who are able to stretch the field?
–Dave, Highlands Ranch
Hansen: Dave, great question! I believe with our offense – as on any offense – you are only as good as your offensive line. And we have some studs. Nate Solder, Ryan Miller and Keenan Stevens will all be great parts of an excellent offensive line.
Also, with all the speed we now have at wide receiver, it will only help all aspects of our offense.
Tyler, what's your favorite place to eat in Boulder?
–Luis, Denver
Hansen: Luis, my favorite place to eat in Boulder has to be Pasta Jay's. The Village Coffee Shop is a close second. I love 'em both!
Of last year's top-five wide receivers – McKnight, Simas, Geer, Sumler, Devenny – only McKnight remains. But the new CU roster shows a windfall of 14 wide receivers. What can you say about the wealth of receiver talent and how will this affect your performance as quarterback?
–Al, Colorado
Hansen: Al, we are so blessed to have all these great wide receivers that we have. Travon Patterson, Scotty McKnight, Toney Clemons, Paul Richardson, Will Jefferson, Kyle Cefalo, and many others all provide a lot of different assets that will be vital for our offense to be effective.
With the talent we now have at the receiver position – and again, if everyone does their job well – I really feel that most any secondary in the country, besides our own, will find it difficult to take away our passing game.
As the QB, I'm so excited to get to throw to these great athletes. I can throw a 5-yard hitch and they'll go 60 yards with it.
Tyler Hansen was named Colorado's starting quarterback on Aug. 21. Last season as a sophomore, Hansen threw for 1,440 yards and eight touchdowns, while starting the final seven games. Before being recruited to Colorado, he was a standout at Chaparral High in Temecula, Calif. He is a communications major at CU.
Hansen's father, Rick, was a quarterback at San Diego State from 1978-83, before being signed by the Chicago Bears. His mother, Pamela, was an All-American sprinter and hurdler at San Diego State.
Colorado opens its season on Sept. 4 against Colorado State, in the Rocky Mountain Showdown game at Invesco Field in Denver.
