From Call Center to Contact Center
If you don't know where you are going, you might up end up some place else.
-- Yogi Berra
Why is the history and the evolution of Call Centers important to Contact Center Managers? Having an evolutionary perspective can give us insight into the operational practices of our own Contact Centers. As you read through the text, you may even remember some of the challenges and solutions associated with the evolution of the Call Center industry. By understanding the past, we can create progressive Contact Centers in the future. As can be seen in Figure 1, this evolution has had a great impact on the nature of the work conducted in Call Centers. The evolution from Call Centers to help desks to multichannel Contact Centers has changed the way companies do business as well as the roles and activities of Contact Center Managers. With companies relying on access to customer information to produce sales, Contact Center evolution continues at a rapid pace. As a result, the Contact Center Manager's role in the company continues to change over time, requiring new skills and competencies.
Figure 1-- Evolution of the Technology from the Call Center to the Help Desk to the Multichannel Contact Center
A historical knowledge of Call Centers helps us to understand the past role of the Call Center Manager. In the early days, Call Center Managers simply supervised individuals in paper-based customer answer centers. Now Contact Center Managers are considered strategic managers, directing technology- based customer loyalty departments with teams that guide the business and generate sales. With such a diverse change in a matter of a few years, we can expect even more progressive role changes and competencies on the horizon for Contact Center Managers.

Managing the Customer Service Chain and CRM
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.
-- Aristotle
New technology will continually come about that integrates more and more customer contact information. Already, emerging technologies such as wireless and satellite are being used. Even today, some preferred customers receive a higher priority in the service queue. Perhaps the traditional phone set will eventually become a thing of the past. In the futuristic world, a single process may manage the call routing, the process rules, and the service logic across the entire company to determine how, when, by whom, or by what a customer interaction should be handled. Perhaps all interactions with customers will be delightfully automated using virtual agents that look and sound human. Integration with any legacy back-end database system could possibly be simply—plug and play.
Who knows what else will be invented next to enable access to customers? Maybe a local area network with integrated kitchen appliances will become the latest and greatest vehicle for distributing information to customers. While intended to be a humorous notion, we see shades of this occurring via communication protocols such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi that enable wireless network access for customers from around the house to coffeehouses and airports.
The point is that access to the customer is of paramount importance to companies and that understanding buyer behavior is becoming more important to businesses. The Contact Center and its databases continue to gain more and more company-wide focus as the hub and clearinghouse for all customer information.

Here's a variety of tiny, miniature, and small-scale DIY garden project ideas. There's fairy and gnome gardens, plus a water garden, a terrarium, sweet cake pan planters, and more.
For more, see miniature and fairy garden project ideas.
Sweet & Little Garden Ideas
Miniature and fairy gardens have become so popular in the past year or two, with so many delightful ideas showing up on the blogs and Pinterest.
These projects were created by my garden blogging friends. You'll find how-to instructions (and more images) by clicking on the link for each project. 1. Fairy Garden In A Wagon | Minnie's Milestones
How fabulous is this rusty wagon? Have a look to see how it was constructed including the concrete leaf roof.
2. Suitcase Fairy Garden | Empress of Dirt
Take a vintage suitcase and turn it into a little world. It's one of my favourite garden art projects. 3. Miniature Garden Terrarium | House of Hawthornes
Adorable! I love this idea of adding miniatures to a terrarium.
4. Small Space Water Feature | New House New Home New Life
This little water garden is a super smart idea for a patio. And you have more plant choices than you would for an in-ground pond. Some water plants are invasive (or grow a bit too fast), but they're fine in a container: they're not going anywhere without your consent! 5. Make A Little Garden Village | That Bloomin' Garden
I love anything that encourages kids to create and play in a garden. Have a look how these kids created their own little village.
6. Gnome Garden In A Basket | Garden Chick
Gorgeous mossy basket with a gnome inside. Click through to see how it was assembled. 7. Sweet Cake Pan Garden | Sensible Gardening & Living
I love cake pans used as planters. I'm always getting more at thrift shops. Have a look at how Lynne made this one plus find out the secret for keeping that lily in place. It's simple yet clever.
8. Plant Fairy Carrots In Jars | Empress of Dirt
This is a fun way to introduce kids to growing veggies, especially if there's limited space. Plant carrots in a jar! They turn out tiny and delicious. And yes, they are cute.
Sign up here for the free Empress of Dirt creative idea newsletter.
9. Gardening In Miniature | Website | Shop | Two Green Thumbs
Janet Calvo is an expert in miniature gardens and the author of Gardening in Miniature.
Visit her site for info on the book, learn which plants are best-suited for miniature gardens, and see her shop for oodles of miniature garden supplies.

Based on my experience in designing and deploying employee awards & recognition program. I think the few factors outlined below may be considered. These factors if considered can account for a credible employee rewards program in any organization.
As HR one of the crucial HR deliveries to the organization is to design & deploy an attractive and credible rewards program. The HR may need to consider the following factors based on his/her discretion before the final draft of the employee recognition program is stamped:
1. Business Environment in which the employee reward program is designed
2. Size of the organization
3. Number of awards to be distributed in the employee recognition program and why so
4. Categories of awards and the relevance in the organization
5. Process of selection of the awards under the staff rewards & recognition program
6. Credibility & transparency of the process of selection of employees to be awarded under the employee recognition program
7. Differentiate Monetary awards & Non Monetary awards
8. Scope of the employee rewards program
9. Branding/ Naming the employee rewards & recognition program

APSCU LINK Magazine
from Classroom to Boardroom
LINK Magazine is a publication issued by the APSCU (Association Private Sector Colleges and Universities). For their Spring 2011 issue they have featured Sabrina Kay along with two other leading female educators.
What set these women on their upward trajectory? Many factors, no doubt, played a role, but determination, talent and opportunity stand out in the stories of each. Take the example of Sabrina Kay, Chancellor and CEO of Fremont College in Los Angeles. Kay came to the U.S. at age 18 but, as she frankly admits, hers is no rags to riches story. Kay's family had a good life in Korea and, after emigrating and going through various hardships, her parents opened a chain of retail stores in Southern California, where Kay worked 16-hour days…"

To a young Russian girl raised to respect and fear the Bratva, gaining the attention of the impressive Sovietnik from a ruling organization was a terrifying thing. Alekzander was a dangerous temptation Sacha Urusski had no hope of resisting. Predictably, her heart was decimated and she was left bleeding…with a precious reason to go on. But when Alekzander bullies his way back into her quiet life and offers a confession that absolves him of his sins, rather than celebrate, Sacha is forced to acknowledge an alarming truth; she has now become the villain in their story. Or so she thinks. When the most damaging secret of all is revealed, her final hope dies and she's left with no other recourse. She must run.
Sixteen months ago, Alekzander Tarasov made the mistake of his life when he annihilated his relationship with his soulmate. At the time, protecting her was his only thought. Now, after attempting to live without her, his focus has changed. He wants her back where she belongs. And he'll stop at nothing to drag his curvy angel away from her new life and so deep into his world of violence and uncertainty she'll never find her way out again.
Through a deluge of secrets and lies, disillusionment and broken faith enters a world where loyalty and trust reign. Will Alek and Sacha's battered love be strong enough to survive? Or will it be a sense of duty that inexorably binds them together in the end?
Dorsey's Review
5 Ultimate Stars!!
In Ultimate Vengeance, we're finally getting the full story behind Alek's heartbreak. Alekzander (Alek) Tarasov is one unhappy Bratva Underboss! He is heartbroken, miserable and regrets his decision of sending his ex-girlfriend. Sacha, literally running from him, their home, and the life they shared. He made an emotional decision when something horrific happened to a family member….now he wants Sacha back and will stop at nothing to claim his woman.
"She was the one woman who could tie him up in f***ing knots and make him enjoy the cramping pain."
I have to say, I love Vassily he has always come across as more of a father to Alek rather than an uncle and this book just solidifies that theory. Vassily has basically raised him to be the man he is today; he may not always agree with some of the decisions Alek has made in his personal life, including running Sacha off, but he'll support him and guide him with unwaveringly support and loyalty.
Ultimate Vengeance is packed full of drama, suspense, betrayal, loyalty and let's not forget about Maks' (LOVE him!) snarky sense of humor. Alek and Sacha were everything I expected and more! I could go on and on about how much I loved this book but I can't without giving too much away. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you panting for more "Wanted Men"!!
"I love you. Passionately and obsessively. You're my greatest weakness and my greatest strength."
Wanted Men fans will love this installment of the series. Nancy Haviland has once again created a fantastic and engaging storyline. Plus, we get plenty of Maks, V, Gabriel and the women who love them and own their hearts. I'm looking forward to more Wanted Men. I definitely need a book for Vassily along with Lucian's story (holy hell his retribution is epic!). I also want books for Dmitry, Quan, Caleb, Grigori, and….well what can I say, I need books for all of them!

You can paint a faux wood grain pattern onto nearly any piece of furniture, regardless of the materials the piece is made from. Metal cabinets can be made to look as though they are constructed of fine wood. Plastic and resin chairs can be wood grained, too. Even furniture that has been painted so many times that the natural wood grain is no longer visible can be restored, in a sense, without time consuming paint stripping. There are many wood graining tools available to make this faux finish.
Research wood grain patterns. All woods have a signature grain pattern and colour palette that needs to be honoured. A "bird's eye maple" wood pattern, for example, is completely different from a "quarter sawn oak" pattern. Study photographs of classic examples of wood grains and choose the pattern most suited for your needs.
Purchase a suitable wood graining tool. These tools, which look like small hand-held rakes or combs, come in a variety of patterns. You can often find a good selection of these tools at home improvement and paint stores. Even more patterns are available from speciality dealers on line. Compare the grain pattern sample associated with a tool to your ideal wood grain pattern choice.
Base coat the furniture piece with one or two "wood" tones. Wood is never one colour: use more than one colour on the furniture piece and "wet blend" the two colours at the edges where they meet. The "wet blending" technique uses two brushes, one brush for each colour. Change the brush and the colour as you work and allow the two colours to blend in together at the wet edges for a natural look. Let this base coat dry thoroughly.
Apply a thin coat of a darker "grain" tone paint. Wood grains are created in natural wood by the presence of darker growth rings and graining is usually darker than the surrounding "clear" wood. Apply the grain tone over the dried base coat, but do not allow the grain paint to dry. Work in sections if the furniture piece is large: covering the entire item in the grain tone paint will risk it drying before you can achieve the wood grain effect with the tool.
Use the wood grain tool on the still-wet grain paint. Press the tool against the surface and drag it along the furniture piece in a smooth motion. Don't worry about "wavy" grain lines as they occur naturally in most woods. The wood grain tool will remove some of the darker grain paint and leave a distinct wood grain pattern behind. Wipe off the tool frequently to remove excess paint.
Work in one direction. Choose which direction the wood grain will run and then maintain that direction. Most large furniture items, like big dressers and some tables, are grained lengthwise, from the farthest edge of the piece to the other edge of the piece: graining "across" the length (creating shorter "boards") is not realistic in most cases.
Add more wood knots if appropriate. Use your darker grain colour and an artist's brush to paint in subtle wood knots. Wood knots are never perfectly round of course. They are usually tear drop shaped.

LEHNER Agrar GmbH
The company was founded by Josef Lehner in 1956 as a sideline. Today, Helmut Lehner is in charge of the company, representing the second generation of the family. The agricultural company was massively expanded from 1980 onwards when Josef Lehner`s son Helmut joined the firm. When a regional snail calamity ravaged the agriculture industry in 1989, the company moved into 12-volt spreading technology. Gradually, the company`s territory grew, initially just in southern Germany, and then to northern and eastern Germany too. Today, the company produces a whole raft of innovative equipment. We are the market leader in Europe for many of the products we carry. Our team of just 25 people handles all of the agricultural side of the business as well as the technology production. In technology, we specialise in the development of innovations and final assembly. The strictly controlled final assembly stage ensures the superlative quality of our products, which we ship all over the world.

Our Philosophy
Where we come from
Our company was founded in 1956 by Josef Lehner in Westerstetten as a small, family-run firm and operated as a sideline in agri-trade.
When his son Helmut Lehner joined the firm in 1980, the company underwent constant redevelopment. Initially the company operated solely as an agri-trade company. In 1992, this was expanded with the sale of 12 Volt-powered spreaders and the company grew to become Europe's market leader in the field of 12-Volt spreaders. Constantly developing our product portfolio remains one of our pledges.
Our commitments
We deliver products of superlative technical quality both in relation to our agri-trade products and our mechanical engineering products. Our focus is on our customers - we want happy customers - not on generating the highest possible sales for our company. We want to offer our customers professional support with every aspect of agriculture and help them with modern solutions. In our Technology department, we attach great importance to the quality of our products. These are subjected to a professional quality check before they are shipped to the customer. Our aim is to operate a sustainable business, generate revenues in a responsible manner and protect the environment.
Our tasks and challenges
To achieve our goals, we invest in skilled and dedicated personnel. We work in team structures, but also on a mutual basis on a number of the company's tasks. Key features of our functioning company include staff involvement through sensible salaries, promotion of identification with the company and team spirit, ongoing training and professional qualifications. We create innovations and improvements to implementation processes and in the development of new products. We give space to regeneration - and we strive to achieve sustainable growth coupled with stability. Our company is proactive, planning, developing and implementing future-ready strategies. Our company's development is the joint responsibility of its management team and its workforce.

Robert M recommends this vacation rental
Stayed in "The Penthouse" in mid-July. We wanted a quiet stay as it was a "working vacation" for me and I needed to do some reading. There was only one other family staying in the building, so it worked well. Not much of a view, only a forest, but ok.
Unit was nice and clean, though there was a musty smell upon entering. Unit had not been rented all summer. The water heater had been turned off and I had problems turning it back on. Management sent out a repairmen quickly to turn it on. The charcoal grille
is a good distance away from the unit and not feasible for use. Towels smelled musty as well. Overall we enjoyed the stay and I would recommend it to friends and family after noting the above. It is perfect if you want rest and quiet.
Response from property owner:
Having owned Beaver Ridge 121 for 22 years, I always welcome constructive comments from guests. The view from my property is the Monongahela National Forest. Just a few feet from my deck is an abundance of wildlife. Prior to your arriving, a family had visited for the 4th of July weekend. Instructions for turning on the water heater are posted in the unit. I will add additional copies of the instructions. The grill for Ash Lodge is located at the opposite end of the building in a picnic area and is used often by residents and guests. Best of Canaan and their housekeeping services have always taken great care so that the unit is 100%. At any time during your arrival or stay, if anything is not up to your standards, Donna Patrick and her crew will do their best to address any concerns. Thank you for your overall recommendation. I am glad you enjoyed your stay at The Penthouse.

wifi was barely functional. It would have been nice to have known that the water needed to be turned on as well as knowing that the breakers for the hot water heater and stove needed to be flipped. A note on the refrigerator could have explained this.
Thanks for your comments and for taking the time to complete our review process. We are always interested in hearing from rental guests and consider your insight as an opportunity to repair and improve our vacation rental properties. We wanted to let you know that the Internet provider for this property was called and has been on site to increase the strength of the WIFI signal.

Susan P from Ames, IA recommends this vacation rental
We recently spent a long weekend in the mountains and this rental was a great choice for lodging. It was midway between Davis and Canaan is a beautiful wooded location. The condo was just as the pictures show it. The pool was nice and not crowded at all.
In fact we had it to ourselves a few times.
The only downside was that we did not have any cell phone reception there. But there is a land line and wi-fi.
I would definitely stay there again!

We called The Best of Canaan they suggested The Penthouse as a reasonable priced and easily accessible lodging. The top floor end unit location was quiet with a cozy atmosphere. Every thing in the unit was clean. We had a wonderful stay and are considering
returning with another couple since the 2 bedrooms with separate baths allow privacy. We cooked one night and found the kitchen well appointed. We enjoyed the fireplace and views from the deck. Our
rental agent Donna Patrick was especially helpful.

Letter: Premier Wall deserves some credit
In the midst of worldwide tough times, people in Saskatchewan are responding by abandoning logic for emotional rhetoric and by turning the ordinary humans sitting in the legislature into scapegoats (because, of course, there must be someone to blame, right?)
Critics of the Sask. Party accuse the government of past "mismanagement" which they "prove" by citing a handful of projects gone bad. But this is the sort of superficial cherry-picking one can do at any time with any government of any stripe.
Even a quick glance at the provincial budgets over the past decade shows most of what the Sask. Party spent was on infrastructure, programs, wage settlements and other things the public wanted and demanded. All of our expectations were set way too high.
Could the Sask. Party have been smarter about putting money aside during the boom? Sure, but so could have many businesses and families. Governments don't own crystal balls and the economic experts were telling them and the rest of us that the boom was going to last another decade.
In the aftermath of the budget, Wall has been compared to Devine, but there is an important difference. Devine created a deficit and then left the painful work of fixing it to Romanow.
We can debate whether the current deficit is Wall's fault, but at least he has taken responsibility and is taking the slings and arrows of getting the province's finances back in order so that his successor – of either stripe – won't have to. For that at least, he deserves credit.

As we all know, the country is currently undergoing a massive regulatory overhaul under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("The Act"). The Act was signed into law by President Obama on July 21, 2010 and provides for significant changes to federal financial regulation.
The stated purpose of the Act is to "promote the financial stability of the United States by improving accountability and transparency in the financial system, to end 'too big to fail,' to protect the American taxpayer by ending bailouts, to protect consumers from abusive financial services practices and for other purposes."

Book & Author Details:
Third & Long by Kata Cuic
Publication date: April 9th 2017
Genres: Sports, Contemporary, Romance
Not everyone plays by the rules.
Eva Papageorgiou has it all: the popularity that always felt so elusive in high school, looks that men can't ignore, and a boyfriend that other women covet. She's gorgeous, powerful; she has the world at her fingertips.
And it's all a lie.
The problem with living a lie is how easy it is to forget who you're lying to. Eva's time to withdraw into the shadows has expired, courtesy of Rob's rising fame. Her only option is to hide in plain sight.
Amid all the chaos, Rob is her safe escape from it all. They continue to be stronger together than they ever could be on their own.
Until being together is what tears them apart.
Rob Falls has everything he's ever wanted: his dream girl, a winning team, respect from everyone. He's at the top of his game, with a Heisman nod on the horizon, and the potential to be a first-round draft pick.
And it's all crumbling before his eyes.
The mounting pressure of being an athlete at the next level while doing all he can to protect Eva takes its toll. He doesn't sleep enough, he worries constantly, and he's torn wanting to be in two places at once.
Rob never imagined the day he'd have to choose between fame and love.
Sometimes life makes choices for us.
With the game and their hearts on the line, will Rob and Eva keep their secrets hidden? Or will they reveal everything to each other, to themselves, to the world…only to lose it all?
This is one of those stories where I am genuinely torn about this review.
On the one hand, I have grown to love these characters over the course of the previous two books. I really felt like this volume would be a stepping stone to the happy every after that I want for the pair.
On the other hand however, there were elements of this book that I really, really struggled with. The sorority house in particular. I have been so invested in this pair's story, that I felt the perceived betrayal at a personal level.
But the heart wrenching part of this was watching them fall apart on so many levels. It was almost too much.
And if I'm completely honest, this one felt over long; a little as though we were being dragged over the coals in an unnecessarily extended manner.
That said, I need the concluding volume. I need to see what happens. And if they don't get the HEA I hope for? Let's just say I hope it doesn't come to that.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.
Kata lives in the greater Pittsburgh, PA region with her husband and three children. When she isn't writing or rewriting or editing or staring at the infuriating blinking cursor on her screen, she's reading. This tends to be a point of contention with the aforementioned family since Kata can't put a book down once she reads the first line. It's all or nothing in a matter of hours. Binge reading tends to be detrimental to domestic goddess/supermom duties. Caffeine, wine, and natural insomnia are constant bolsters in the pursuit of getting everything done.
She has a degree in Linguistics and is, in fact, fluent in several American English dialects including Pittsburghese and sarcasm. She's eternally grateful to be a part of the last generation to go through college without social media documenting the entire ordeal.
All she wanted was to write a story she couldn't get out of her head. Unfortunately, things in life tend to snowball faster than her husband on the mountain at a ski resort. After penning her first book which turned into three separate manuscripts in a series, she realized she might have a problem. Life hasn't been the same since.
She loves long walks on the beach, romantic candlelight dinners, and holding hands. Just kidding. Her true loves are football, steak and Buffalo wings, the occasional blizzard, bonfires with friends and family, and learning new things.

By Frank McLean
Terrence Ross made his return to Toronto with his new team the Orlando Magic and even though for Ross it's still "a little strange" being a member of the Magic, his new head coach Frank Vogel is happy to have him.
"He has played beyond expectations," Vogel said when Pro Bball Report asked him about the short time Ross has been a member of the Magic.
Vogel has always been a big fan of Ross, having played the Raptors three to four times a year during his previous gig as the head man in Indiana. Vogel knew that Ross, when he's hot, can be as deadly a shooter as anyone in the NBA.
Ross is entrenched in a special spot in the Raptors record book as one of only two players to have a 50-plus point game in franchise history when he tied Vince Carter's 51-point record against the Los Angeles Clippers three years ago.
During his four and a half years in Toronto Ross was a key man coming off the bench for Raptors coach Dwane Casey. In Orlando, he has been in the starting line-up every night.
"I have always been high on Terrence when we played him when I was with the Pacers," Vogel said. "I know what he can do and a lot of guys when you come into a new system you can exceed your expectations or fall short and Terrence has definitely exceeded my expectations in terms of being a high character guy and fitting in well.
"His transition was seamless," Vogel added. "He picked up everything very, very quickly on both ends of the floor. And he fits this style of play that we are trying to implement."
The deal the Magic made sending power forward Serge Ibaka to Toronto for Ross signalled a change in their style of play from the start of the season.
In the off season the plan was to go big and play a physical style of basketball. They signed Bismack Biyombo to a 70-million plus contract in which he has turned into a backup center and they acquired Ibaka from Oklahoma City to join Nikola Vucevic to form a modern day version of smashmouth basketball.
As a result third year power forward Aaron Gordon was moved to small forward and it did just not work out the way the Magic had planned so they decided to change their philosophy midway through the season.
Putting Gordon back at power forward and having Ross at small forward is working out better for the Magic.
"Offensively it's not just a catch and shoot game. The memories I have of him (Ross) are drilling those corner threes when we were over helping on DeMar and Kyle," Vogel said. "We have really been able to put the ball in his hands in the dribble-handoff game and off screens. Not only is he knocking down shots but he's making plays off the bounce. He's a dynamic play-maker when he's going downhill towards the basket and making good decisions with the pass."
The changes the Magic have made will not put them in the playoffs this season. Vogel said the goal now for this group is to win as many games as they can down the stretch to give them a good taste in their mouth as they take off for a long summer offseason and come to training camp in October on a positive note.
One thing for sure Ross will be a key part in a Magic team that will be gunning for a playoff spot next season and the Magic are happy they have him.
Veteran journalist Frank McLean has covered nearly every Raptors game in Toronto since their inaugural season at the Skydome back in 1995-96. He has seen it all. The good, the bad and the really bad and he is one of the very few journalists in Toronto that has kept coming back for more.

The Chatty Cat 2 Ball contains 32 questions and actions to challenge and improve children's oral language skills. This ball contains challenging open ended questions, and various actions for children to complete when playing with the ball. Playing with the Chatty Cat 2 ball will help to extend and improve children's ability to speak about themselves.
Some of the questions/actions on the Chatty Cat Ball include:
Cé as tú?
Inis dom faoi d'áit chónaithe.
Céard a rinne tú an deireadh seachtaine seo caite?
Inis dom faoin chlann.
An bhfuil suim agat sa cheol?
Gach duine – Léimigí suas agus síos cúig huaire
How to play:
Player A begins by choosing a question and directing it towards another player (Player B).
When Player B correctly answers the question Player A throws the ball to him/her.
Player B will then read out a question and direct it to another player (the question/action is determined by the nearest handprint to where their right hand lands).
If the player's right hand lands on an instruction (rather than a question), the whole group must complete it. This player then gets to choose what question they are going to ask, and to whom they are asking it.
How the Chatty Cat Ball 2 could be used?
In The Classroom :
At the beginning of class the Chatty Cat Ball could be used as a warm up activity (this would give the teacher a good opportunity to correct/assist with pronunciation).
The teacher could divide the class into groups and have each group working together with a different Chatty Cat Ball (hence children get to practice their oral language skills without the pressure of the whole class listening).
PE- the teacher could incorporate activities with the Chatty Cat Ball into PE lessons.
At Home :
Parents/carers could use the Chatty Cat 2 Ball to have fun with their kids whilst improving their oral language skills at the same time.
There are no reviews yet.
Smarty Cat Games has developed several language resources to assist children with learning Irish in a fun and informal manner.
These games ensure that children become more actively involved in their own learning, thus acquiring the necessary skills and knowledge to become more competent in the Irish language.

Sustaining Wellness Workshop
The road to wellness, safety, understanding, security...winds through our hardest moments. It's when we find ourselves in a crisis that we tend to close ourselves off to the moment...and we miss the opportunity that we can always find there...in the middle of the mess, our lives have become. Dwell in the discomfort. Anchor into your values. Find your community...and you will find yourselves in a space of pure potential. Come to the @SustainingWellnessWorkshop on December 8th at 11:00 AM for Self-Care Saturday @CivicMediaCenter. Join this community healing space and learn how to connect with your authentic self and set the intention that will bring you to a new beginning...or sustain you on your path.
I'm Syraj Syed, Ph.D., MAMC and I'm a Narrative Counseling Specialist with Your Authentic Self Work. By empowering people to approach their own narratives through self-inquiry and reflexivity, they are equipped to rewrite their narratives toward an intentional, chosen life that is authentically theirs. I use narrative methods for developmental meaning-making and sustaining wellness to empower individuals and communities toward conscious growth based on their own narrative insights. I've trained and worked in the fields of communications, education and behavioral health only to find my greatest fulfillment in working with people to re-author their life stories. I've found that whole-person healing occurs best when people can move forward with the empowerment that comes with authoring your own story.
This is a meaning-making workshop designed to serve as a safe space for you to engage in self-reflection and work through your dissonance and discomfort with others. You will be able to take an honest look at yourself and claim the values you want to build forward on. You will be able to connect with others on the same path...others you can build a community of practice with...others that you can co-create with...to gain a new perspective on this moment in your story. This will be about your lived experience as it intersects with the lived experiences of others. We will find shared meaning across those experiences and learn how we can manifest that meaning in our community. We will work together to find your path toward self-authorship and provide you with the customized tools that can help you build and sustain this path.

Generally speaking, I don't think internet conservatives have succeeded in "keeping the mainstream media honest." On the contrary, I think the MSM in general have become more nakedly partisan in recent years. Still, the news agencies appear to have been stung by the exposure of fakery that took place during and after Israel's 2006 invasion of Lebanon. This time around, both the Associated Press and Reuters seem to be trying to avoid scandal.
I've been watching the international news photos pretty closely, and so far, the conflict in Gaza does not appear to have given rise to any incidents of fauxtography. Nor have we seen the kinds of obviously staged photos (e.g., of terrorists in heroic poses) that characterized not only the Lebanon conflict but years of reporting on Iraq. To be sure, AP and Reuters have flooded us with photos of injured Palestinian children and elderly Palestinian women standing on top of piles of rubble, and the news agencies' reporting has reflected the standard liberal, anti-Israel slant. But again, that's an improvement over outright fabrication.
The news services' reliance on Palestinian stringers as reporters and photographers continues to be problematic. We were reminded of this yesterday, when the AP's star reporter in Gaza, Ibraham Barzak, wrote a personal narrative of his own experiences during the Gaza conflict:
I live alone in my office. My wife and two young children moved in with her father after our apartment was shattered. The neighborhood mosque, where I have prayed since I was a child, had its roof blown off. All the government buildings on my beat have been obliterated.
After days of Israeli shelling, the city and life I have known no longer exist. …
Three days after Israel began its airstrikes against Hamas militants on Dec. 27, my apartment building was shaken by bombs aimed at a nearby Hamas-run government compound.
My brother took a picture of the room where my boys, 2-year-old Hikmet and 6-month-old Ahmed, once slept. Their toys were broken, shrapnel had punched through the closet and the bedroom wall had collapsed. I don't know if we will ever go back.
There are other pictures that haunt me. The Israeli army issued a video of the bombing of the Hamas-run government compound, which it posted on YouTube. In it, I also can see my home being destroyed, and I watch it obsessively.
Some of my colleagues lost their houses to the shelling as well, and are sleeping on mattresses spread across the floors of an apartment upstairs from The Associated Press bureau.
This account by Barzak is actually quite scrupulous in acknowledging that in the instances he describes, the Israelis were striking at legitimate Hamas targets. One can only imagine, though, how different the AP's coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would be if its dispatches were being written by Israelis whose homes had been destroyed by Hamas or Hezbollah rockets.
Finally, I can't leave the subject of wire service photography without passing along this Reuters image of a Palestinian Authority security officer in Bethlehem, kicking a rock-throwing protester in an appropriate spot:
UPDATE: On the other hand, we have a faked scene in a Gaza hospital, which CNN fell for.

ORGANIZER(S): European Commission (EC)
United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction - Regional Office for Europe (UNDRR ROE)
Type: Meeting or Conference Date: 06 - 07 Jul 2010 Location: Belgium (Brussels) Venue: University Club Foundation, rue d'Egmont 11
This workshop, jointly organized by the European Commission Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (EC DG) and the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction Europe Regional office, builds on the outcomes of the EC DG Research-UNISDR October 2009 workshop "Dialogue Among Scientific Community and Policy Stakeholders on Disaster Risk Reduction".
The meeting intends to continue reinforcing the exchanges among the scientific and policy community that in Europe deals with the issue of adaptation to climate change and reducing the risks posed by natural hazards, in particular, water-related risks. The event aims at providing practical examples of how research can contribute to guide policy makers in investment decisions towards disaster risk reduction in order to implement the climate change adaptation agenda. The workshop will also address how the policy makers access the information produced by research projects, specifically those supported by the EC (under the funding windows of FP6 and FP7).
In particular, the three main objectives of this event are:
1. Gather representatives of on-going FP6 and FP7 projects, as well as of related EU-funded projects, IPCC authors, Hyogo Framework for Action Focal Points, National Platforms coordinators and other ISDR system partners to discuss the state of knowledge, identify research perspectives and needs, and best ways to communicate key findings to policy-makers and stakeholders. Linked to this goal, the publication of a special issue on an international scientific journal is envisaged, which will include key findings of RTD projects of interest to IPCC authors and ISDR system partners.
2. To formulate recommendations on how to ensure smooth communication on policy developments from various perspectives (research, climate, regional policy, disaster risk reduction policies) between policy-maker and research communities. This will effectively help the identification of research and investment needs in adaptation and disaster risk reduction for European regional and national ISDR system partners.
3. To promote the integration of key scientific findings into European national policies and EU policies targeting adaptation and risk reduction in water-related hazards as well as contributing to the 5th IPCC Assessment Report.

Radical Learning. Towards experiential, distributed and collaborative environments of learning and capacity-building
Publicerad Alessandra Cecc...
This document contains a proposal for a radical new environment of learning and capacity-building rooted in social innovation and oriented towards shared social value.
Radical Learning is about imagining how the education and training systems of the 21st century could look like, and how we can shape them into platforms of individual and collective empowerment for the common good. It is about linking intentional and unintentional learning, and connecting formal, non-formal and informal learning contexts in a way that helps build continuity in meanings and actions. It is about acknowledging the human condition of plurality as the key precondition for self-realization and self-attainment. Most and foremost, Radical Learning is about recognizing life and living experiences as the most powerful drivers of learning.
Radical Learning is a model, an infrastructure and an approach at the same time.
Indeed, Radical Learning is deeply entrenched in Impact Hub Florence. As a community of 150+ professionals that daily share working spaces, interests and projects, Impact Hub Florence is a collector of a broad and varied set of knowledge, competencies and skills.

You won't be able to get the new face-watching iPhone X until November, but you also won't have to wait nearly as long for software updates to any Apple Watch, iPhone, or Mac you already own, nor will you have to wait as long for the new iPhone 8, Series 3 Watch, and Apple TV announced today.
The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are the direct successors to the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. Only these units have wireless charging and improved cameras. They'll both go on sale 15 September (8am GMT), and ship 22 September.
The Apple Watch Series 3, with a mobile data connection, W2 wireless chip, and faster processor, also goes on sale 15 September and will ship 22 September.
Same with the 4K Apple TV, the first Apple TV to hand 4K and HDR content. If you want it, be prepared to stay up late and pre-order 15 September with a delivery date of 22 September.
iOS 11, which will include the cool ARKit, a redesigned Notification Center, and turn your iPad into a laptop, will be available 19 September.
macOS High Sierra, the latest OS for Apple laptops and desktops, will arrive on 25 September. It will be of particular interest to photographers, as the app Photos has seen some major improvements that make it nearly as good as pricier options like Adobe Lightroom or Capture One.
WatchOS 4 promises aren't quite as exceptional to non-watch users, but improved heartrate monitor and fitness apps could let the Apple Watch continue to comepete against watches with far better battery life, like the new Fitbit Ionic. There are also new watch faces to look forward to, including a super informative one based on Siri. It will be available 19 September.

On September 14, the church celebrated Holy Cross Day in honor of Christ's self-offering on the cross for our salvation. This feast day is also known in some churches as the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross and the Feast of the Triumph of the Cross. It was one of the 12 great feasts in the Byzantine liturgy and remains a major feast day for the Episcopal Church.
The celebration of the Holy Cross occurs on September 14 to commemorate the consecration of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on that day in 335 by the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great. Constantine's mother, Saint Helena, is said to have discovered the True Cross during a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and Constantine built the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on the site of her discovery. A portion of the Cross is said to have been placed inside the church.
The legend also tells of Persians carrying away that portion of the cross in 614 and that it remained missing until 628, when the Byzantine Emperor Heraclius recaptured it and returned it to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
As "An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church" (Church Publishing, 2000) points out, "Although the authenticity of alleged relics of the cross may be questionable, Holy Cross Day provides an opportunity for a joyous celebration of Christ's redeeming death on a cross."
Collect for Holy Cross Day
Almighty God, whose Son our Savior Jesus Christ was lifted high upon the cross that he might draw the whole world to himself: Mercifully grant that we, who glory in the mystery of our redemption, may have grace to take up our cross and follow him; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen. Book of Common Prayer, p. 244

She claims that Colombia is the most colorful country in the world, and that's one of the special things about Colombia you can find any single color here, in landscapes, in constructions, in art etc..
She became a guide because she considered it was one of the best ways to share the beauty of her country and the talent of its people to the world.
Patricia has been working as a guide since 2013 and she is fluent in Spanish and English.
This young Guide was born in Boogtá, in the early nineties and has been a tour guide since 2013. He is Fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
It didn't take Fabian a long time to realize the Diversity in his country, he tells us that just traveling from Bogotá to Medellín, cities about 260 miles away from each other, every single person is very different.
He claims that in Colombia they have the influence of so many different cultures (Afro-Colombians, Criollos, Romas, Sephardic Jews, Germanics…), and that you can see their influence in everything, the food, the music and dances, the architecture…
He tells us that people coming to colombia these days, will get a more authentic vision of the country and its people, since they are much more open and willing to share their country.
*Please note that this tour may be guided by another local guide, always providing a genuine approach to the local culture.

M'Pandex, also known in ancient sources as Mappandax or Zaphadak, is a Secundus II Grade Forge World of ancient provenance and tumultuous history. Founded during the dark years of the Age of Strife and isolated from the domains of the Mechanicum and humanity for much of its history, the Forge World's fortune waxed and waned until its later rediscovery by the forces of the Great Crusade in the 30th Millennium.
Restored to its former glory by the efforts of the Martian Priesthood, M'Pandex would become an important Forge World for the whole Cyclops Cluster, although being overshadowed by the the might of its rival, the Forge World of Mezoa. Following in the footsteps of Mars, M'Pandex quickly sided with the Warmaster Horus during the Age of Heresy, willfully joining the Dark Mechanicus until its purge during the Great Scouring.
Although overshadowed in most regards by its neighbour Mezoa, M'Pandex is in fact considerably older than its rival, owing its origins to Martian Explorator Arks launched during the Age of Strife. The exact nature of its founding and its early history, however, remain shrouded in the lost anarchy of the past, and it seems the Forge World itself fell out of contact with both the Mechanicum and wider humanity for much of its history.
In the long years of isolation, it is evident that the Forge World went through several cycles of expansion and collapse, each cycle ending in environmental and/or civil calamity and progressively degrading its technological capabilities, the understanding of its Magi and the stability of its population's genome.
Such was M'Pandex's fall that even the command of the Lingua-Technis -- the sacred language of the Machine Cult -- suffered, leading to the widely held supposition that the Forge World's self-given name, sometimes variously rendered "Mappandax" and "Zaphadak" in the local idiom, is in fact the corruption of an older, purer title. In the same manner, M'Pandex possessed few Titans which remained repairable over the centuries and had mostly fallen into ruin, serving as no more than inanimate idols to the Machine Priesthood.
When M'Pandex was rediscovered by chance by the 90th Expeditionary Fleet, it was barely recognisable as a domain of the Mechanicum, ruled by factitious and superstition-bound warlords scarcely able to claim the lineage of Magi, while much of its dwindling population had descended into abhumanity. Regardless of its parlous state, the Lords of Mars would not see a Forge World, however reduced, pass into oblivion, and considerable effort was spent by the Mechanicum rebuilding M'Pandex's infrastructure, re-educating its wayward inhabitants and weeding out the worst of them or driving them deep into the planet's long-petrified jungles.
Much had been irrevocably lost, unfortunately, and it may also be true that the Martian Mechanicum, despite their best efforts, did not entirely trust those of M'Pandex, and garrisoning forces of Skitarii and a demi-maniple of Titans of the Legio Mortis were stationed there not so much as protectors, but as wardens, beholden to Mars, not the High Ourteka M'andii of the Golden Forge.
The planet's reconstructed industries were notably focused not on macro-weaponry, arms or armour, but on the mass production of items of logistical supply and prefabricated materials; just as vital to the Great Crusade, but clearly of less direct use in any potential revolt. Eager to prove its loyalty, the forges and manufactoria of M'Pandex ran ceaselessly to show their worth, and by the time Horus was proclaimed Warmaster, their output rivalled those of even such mighty Forges as Lucius and Vannaheim in volume, yet the Forge World remained in the shadow of its upstart neighbour Mezoa, both in prestige and influence.
The Horus Heresy
M'Pandex's involvement in the unfurling Heresy began in 006.M31, at the height of the spreading alarm throughout the Cyclops Cluster. Both Mezoa and M'Pandex, the two greatest independent powers within the region, each received the Emissary of Mars, a Magos known as Regulus, or at least an entity bearing that name as there are extant contradictions in the record regarding the location of this individual at various times.
This senior Tech-priest of the Mechanicum had for many Terran years served alongside the Warmaster Horus, long before the betrayal at Istvaan, and now remained his, body and soul, being part of Horus' inner circle and bound in allegiance to the Traitor's cause. Regulus came bearing dual patents of authority, the first from his Warmaster and the second from the hand of Kelbor-Hal, none other than the Fabricator-General of Mars, and by right the voice of the Omnissiah and Supreme Pontifex of the Mechanicum.
Kelbor-Hal had also thrown his lot in with the Traitor Horus, sparking a civil war on Mars itself, a fact not yet known by those in the Cyclops Cluster. Regulus made an offer and a demand; the demand was for fealty, that the Magi of M'Pandex serve the Warmaster as their own Fabricator-General bid them to do. That they obey him and offer up their arts and the fruits of their forges for him and his armies, and open their ports to his warships, while denying these things to both the forces of distant Terra and the local Imperial Commanders, already demonstrably squabbling amongst themselves in fear and disunity.
To honey the threat of force, Regulus offered the Warmaster's protection for their Forge World and, just as he did to sway Kelbor-Hal to his cause, he offered gifts: STC technologies harvested from the later Great Crusade era and kept solely by Horus and those he trusted, and the freedom to pursue those technologies and arcana the Emperor had so cruelly and ignorantly denied them as forbidden knowledge since the Treaty of Mars.
On M'Pandex, Regulus was greeted with great reverence and courtesy, and personally led to direct audience with the High Ourteka of M'Pandex to plead his case. What passed between them at this private conference is unknown, but from then onward and without recourse to consorting with the synod of M'Pandex Magi for confirmation, the Forge World was pledged to the Warmaster. There was in some quarters brief but violent resistance to this new order, but the world was long-used to internecine conflict in its ranks, and the High Ourteka was merciless in wielding the handful of Martian Skitarii and the small detachment of Legio Mortis Titans based there to aid in his world's protection, now his private enforcers, to ensure compliance.
This new allegiance, while firm, was not widely broadcast and was unknown to outsiders. M'Pandex was quickly girded for war, its production capacity ramped ever higher and now destined for Horus' armies, while whatever Loyalist or merchant voidships passed into its space were seized and impounded, their crews and complement forcibly converted into adsecularis slaves for a growing Taghmata of the Forge World's own. M'Pandex's military and especially its naval might was quickly put to good use, reinforcing the blockade of its long-time rival Mezoa and seizing its vassal worlds for precious resources which quickly fuelled M'Pandex's war effort.

Can I Be Turned Down for Medicare Supplement Insurance?
Last Updated : 09/16/20184 min read
Medicare Supplement plans are sold by private insurance companies to work alongside your Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) coverage and help cover out-of-pocket costs such as copayments, coinsurance and deductibles. These plans could help you save on Medicare health-care costs, especially if you receive extensive medical care.
Medicare Supplement plans are standardized with letter-designated names in 47 states (Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin have their own standardized plans). If you're enrolled in Medicare, you can only be denied a Medicare Supplement plan under certain conditions. The list of conditions below is not comprehensive, but it can help you understand the limited circumstances in which you might be denied a Medicare Supplement plan.
Turned down for Medicare Supplement condition 1: You aren't enrolled in Medicare Part A and Part B.
You must have Medicare Part A and Part B to enroll in a Medicare Supplement plan. If you have neither Part A nor Part B, or just Part A or just Part B, you're not eligible for Medicare Supplement insurance. Medicare Supplement plans are intended only for Medicare beneficiaries with both Part A and Part B.
Turned down for Medicare Supplement condition 2: You're enrolled in a Medicare Medical Savings Account (MSA) plan or any Medicare Advantage plan.
It's illegal for anyone to sell you a Medicare Supplement policy if you have a Medicare Medical Savings Account (MSA) plan, or any kind of Medicare Advantage plan, unless you're switching back to Original Medicare. Medicare Supplement plans don't work with Medicare Advantage plans. If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, you can still apply for Medicare Supplement, but you must drop the Medicare Advantage plan before the Medicare Supplement plan begins.
Turned down for Medicare Supplement condition 3: You have Medicare Part A and Part B but you're under age 65
Some people qualify for Medicare coverage under age 65 because they have a disability or a certain disease such as end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, federal law doesn't require private insurance companies to sell Medicare Supplement policies to people under 65. Some states do require the private insurance companies within that state to sell Medicare Supplement policies to people under 65. If you live in a state such as California or Vermont that does sell Medicare Supplement to people under 65 under certain circumstances, you may be denied Medicare Supplement insurance if you have ESRD.
Turned down for Medicare Supplement condition 4: You're not in your Medicare Supplement open enrollment period
You could be denied a Medicare Supplement policy if you apply for it outside of your Medicare Supplement Open Enrollment Period. This open enrollment period lasts for six months and begins in the month that you're both at least 65 years old and enrolled in Medicare Part B. During this period, an insurance company cannot consider your health status when evaluating your application (however, a waiting period related to your health condition may apply). You can buy any Medicare Supplement plan that is sold in your state regardless of health problems. After this period ends, insurance companies can consider your health condition when deciding to accept or reject your application. They could deny you coverage or charge you a higher premium if they think you will be too expensive to cover based on your health history.
If you still have questions about being denied a Medicare Supplement plan, I am happy to help you find answers. If you prefer, you can schedule a phone call or request an email by clicking on the buttons below. You can also find out about plan options in your area by clicking the Compare Plans button.
The product and service descriptions, if any, provided on these Medicare.com Web pages are not intended to constitute offers to sell or solicitations in connection with any product or service. All products are not available in all areas and are subject to applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
Medicare Supplement insurance plans are not connected with or endorsed by the U.S. government or the Federal Medicare program.

I am not being dramatic. The above is a description of the effects of the capital control bill forced through the Cypriot parliament this weekend. From Tuesday, Cyprus becomes a black hole in the Eurozone: any money that goes into it stays there, and no money can leave……From a safe distance, it will appear frozen in time, a small cash-based economy, isolated from the rest of the EU. While inside, invisible to all except those who actually go there – or live there – its social fabric is torn apart as its economy collapses. Note the final clause in the capital control bill:
Any other measure which the Finance Minister or the Governor of Cyprus Central Bank see necessary for reasons of public order and safety
So as people's livelihoods are destroyed and their standard of living crashes, other measures may be introduced to ensure that they can't take matters into their own hands.

Design and Manufacturing of Hierarchical Multi-Functional Materials Via High Resolution additive Manufacturing
Karch, Matthias Ottmar
MetadataShow full item record
This master's thesis deals with the challenges of undesirable thermal expansion in lightweight materials. Thermal expansion of parts or components can lead to malfunction or breakdowns of complete systems in demanding environment where a large temperature gradient often exists. This work investigates a class of lightweight materials of which the thermal expansion coefficient can be controlled. Moreover, an additive manufacturing approach to produce these thermal management materials with high fidelity and reliability are critical to reach this goal. To achieve these two major research objectives analytic predictions, simulations, and measurement of thermal expansion coefficient with respect to temperature changes are conducted. Design and optimization of a high precision multi-material manufacturing apparatus has been conducted, leading to significant increase in production quality including reliability, efficiency, and costs.

After spending her formative years at a Catholic parochial school in Victoria, Texas, Kathryn enrolled in the obvious choice of college – a private Baptist university – Baylor, in Waco, Texas.
Born in Waco, the son of a Baylor professor that met his wife while she was on staff there with Campus Crusade, Geoffrey watched as his older brother and sister graduated from Baylor. Deciding instead to do the unexpected, he soon enrolled at Baylor.
Both gregarious and attracted to oddities and creative types, they found themselves part of a large network of Waco natives and fellow Baylor Bears, see below:
Although part of a large group of friends, the friendship between these two was not close until the herd thinned, if you will. As maturation, matriculation, and migration led friends to Austin, California, Chicago, and other personal green pastures, our protagonists set their sights on graduate school at Baylor.
Katy, having repeated rudimentary math not twice but thrice (she eventually made an A, y'all), recruited a mathematics major from her now smaller group of hometown friends to tutor her in GRE number-sense. Geoff, being the willing helper and math-proselytizer he is, agreed to assist.
At this point, their photos now look like this:
These cram sessions revealed a shared passion for the finer things in life – suspense thrillers, swelling string music, adventurous foods, pub trivia, and online personality quizzes.
These shared passions led to shared experiences: reading every placard in the museum, sniffing every candle in the store, and tasting every condiment in the restuarant.
These shared experiences led to shared love, respect, and pride. Here, Geoff and Katy fell madly in love.
Their pictures now look like this:
On the eve of an overseas jaunt, and after the Pokémon Go players cleared out, Geoffrey proposed to Kathryn in the Armstrong Browning Library Garden of Contentment. No one warned Geoff about the stress on a loquacious proposer's knee, and no one warned Katy to wear waterproof mascara, but details-schmetails. Our protagonists committed!
As gratitude and excitement for each other swept over our protagonists, they began to ruminate on those that contributed to the people they each were that enabled them to meet and complement each other so well. Thus, you, dear readers, find yourself here and part of this narrative.
