We've identified several positives for potential customers, and a few negatives, in our Ovation Credit Repair review.
Ovation appears to set itself apart as a credit repair company by offering a high degree of service for a relatively cheap price.
Despite being a fresh face in the industry, Ovation has pioneered a new process in the age-old credit repair system. The company offers an innovative plan allowing customers to appoint which features they would like in their credit repair process.
In our estimation, this feature not only helps to maximize customer satisfaction, but may also give Ovation Credit a better opportunity to help their clients.
This review will explore Ovation Credit further, and assess their competency as a credit repair company.
What We Like About Ovation Credit
Ovation is accredited by the BBB, and currently holds an A+ rating (as of June 30, 2019) with the consumer watchdog firm.
Prospective customers are eligible for a free consultation, and can access their account via the firm's free mobile app.
The firm offers various payment plans for customers to choose from, starting with their relatively inexpensive, low-cost plan. Potential customers should be able to find something best suited to their financial needs and interests.
Their website's design is sleek and modern. A scrolling list of commonly overlooked credit repair facts is provided prominently on their homepage. Average consumer results are provided, and the company maintains active social media accounts.
We've identified a few distinct advantages for customers signing up with Ovation Credit:
- Customization. According to their website, Ovation Credit states, "you can add other custom options to further sculpt our services." This is a unique feature not typically seen with other credit repair services.
- Same-day service. The company offers an expedited, 'same day service' for individuals looking to improve their credit. The company claims they will expedite the process of dispute letters so they reach the appropriate bureaus the same day of sign-up.
- Identity Optimization feature. Ovation Credit's optimization feature allows customers to protect themselves from identity fraud while simultaneously improving their credit. This feature comes with a detailed analysis for each credit bureau report. It also provides for unlimited custom disputes for correcting identity theft issues.
What We Don't Like About Ovation Credit
Ovation is a fairly new credit repair company. The firm simply doesn't possess the comparable longevity and established reputation some of their competitors boast.
An education system for DIY credit repair is not available for customers, unlike the options other credit repair companies tend to feature on their websites.
An exhaustive list of 'disadvantages' one could face when signing up with this company may not be possible.
However, there are a few areas of potential improvement we can note:
- Add an educational resource portal. This will help customers who wish to continue their period of learning after they sign up with the website. Although there are resources for this type of learning on the site, they are not easily available.
- Feature customer reviews. This will help add more reassurance for potential customers.
What About Ovation Credit's Reviews?
In our research, Ovation Credit's reviews are primarily positive. A small number of customer feedback registered negatively.
Reviewers claim they received exactly the services they paid for, and enjoyed being able to adjust the website's customizable purchase options to suit their preferences.
Alternatively, some users reported they did not receive the services they originally expected. This is a common issue among credit repair companies. No matter what firm you choose to work with, you're going to find previous customers who were not entirely thrilled with their results.
When to Use Ovation Credit
The best time to contact Ovation would be when you are confronted with any host of credit problems.
Some examples of when it would be wise to work with Ovation Credit would be:
- You would like a free credit consultation with a professional credit analyst
- You're seeking to repair your credit
- Advice needed about credit repair
- You'd like to improve your credit score (but, remember, companies can not promise an increase in your credit score)
- You are unsure of where you stand credit-wise
What Can Be Removed From Your Credit?
Ovation will work to remove whatever can legally be removed from your report.
These include negative & inaccurate:
- late payments
- collections
- charge-offs
- bankruptcies
- judgments
- liens
- credit inquiries
- foreclosures
Note: Only false, duplicate, expired and/or fraudulent entries may be removed from your credit report. This goes for all credit repair firms – not just Ovation.
How Does Ovation Credit Repair Your Credit?
Once they've identified your points of concern in your credit report, and decided which negative items they wish to dispute, Ovation's legal team immediately gets to work.
Ovation encourages flexibility. This allows customers to contribute additional effort, such as writing a letter to the credit agency.
How Much Does Ovation Credit Cost?
Ovation Credit offers two plans called the 'Essentials Plan' and the 'Essentials Plus Plan.'
The Essentials Plan requires an $114 payment for the 'first work fee.' This is in addition to a recurring $69/monthly payment that can be cancelled at any time.
This plan also comes with the option of adding Fast Track and Identity Optimization, which cost $25 each.
The Essentials Plan allows customers to have personalized dispute options, a personal case adviser, 24/7 access to the customer's case status with live updates, and access to Ovation's online dispute service.
The Essentials Plus Plan requires the same $114 'first work fee.' This in addition to a recurring payment of $99/monthly that can be cancelled at any time. Fast Track and Identity Optimization are again available as add-ons for $25/each.
The Essentials Plus Plan allows customers to have unlimited challenge validation, unlimited creditor goodwill letters, an official ovation recommendation letter upon request, and TransUnion Credit monitoring. The 'Essentials Plan' features are also included within the Essentials Plus Plan.
What to Expect When Signing Up
After a customer signs up and selects the appropriate plan, they will be prompted to send their Experian credit report.
Ovation Credit handles the burden of retrieving the TransUnion and Equifax Credit Summary reports. Ovation then imports the reports into your case file during your initial signup.
Afterwards, the 'Dispute Manager' feature is activated. At this point, Ovation Credit will ask the customer a series of questions before the company gets started.
What Results Can You Expect From Ovation Credit?
Like most reputable firms, you should expect to see negative items removed from your report (when applicable), and hopefully see your credit score increased (but, again, be wary if a company promises a credit score increase).
You can also expect to exit the program substantially more knowledgeable about the credit repair process than you were prior.

It was a totally painless procedure...the Doctors are very experienced and good to deal with. The clinic meets International standards, is super clean & hygienic. I have stopped going to any other Dentist and would highly recommend Opus Dental Specialities and Dr Khan.
Exceeded my expectations....I am very happy with the result! Very well done!
Dr. Khan & his team at Opus have been looking after my teeth for over 14 years. Every procedure, including the Implant replacement is done perfectly with minimum stress or pain. It's been a pleasure coming to Opus...and leaving with a smile!.
I had a Root Canal done at OPUS and it far exceeded my expectations. It was quick and painless. The docs and the staff at the clinic are great and the clinic is clean and high-tech (more so than the ones in Dubai where I live)! I would highly recommend OPUS to others.
Finally I've got a chance to find out this clinic which is perfect in all aspects. I really appreciate all the services rendered.
High level of courtesy and very professional treatment.
Dr. Khan and Dr. Purvi Bhargava were most skilled with excellent relationship skills.
My experience and treatment surpassed expectations. When asked for a referral, I specifically requested a dentist who was skilled and placed emphasis on hygiene. Dr. Khan, his colleagues and staff provide a welcome oasis for dental care. There is also a well-tended and impressive balcony garden that is used by patient and staff - a lovely environment retreat.
Very professional and quality work done. The clinic is also very impressive with latest equipments. Highly recommended.
Highly recommended by many friends. My experience confirmed Dr. Khan's excellent ability in highly specialized aspects of dentistry. Very sensitive to patient's pain, appearance plus a pleasant personality. Reduces trauma of dental chair. Prepares patient before hand for major scope of work and cost.
A happy experience for traumatic events.
I have been trying dentists in Bali (Bangkok) and Singapore to do a total restoration of my teeth to no result. Finally I felt real comfort & relaxation in Mumbai, by Opus Dental Specialities. Very professional approach and excellent work.
"Whole procedure was comfortable and adjusting to the patients requirements. I am very happy with the final result".
The 'Dentist's Chair was akin to the 'Electric Chair' before I came to Burzin, Now I am totally at ease, calm and collected everytime I come to OPUS - .... smiles!
I would highly recommend Dr. Khan, whose personalized and professional approach makes one feel completely comfortable at every visit. Even though he has a very competent supporting team at Opus, Dr. Khan provides his personal touch and attention at every appointment. The state of the art equipment and appointment booking software makes the process even more seamless.
I walked into this clinic with probably the worst set of teeth and gums this dentist has seen, and have walked out with an amazing megawatt brilliant confident smile!
Extremely satisfied with the new tooth. Root Canal procedure was absolutely painless.
I had a very satisfying experience and would recommend to my friends.
Treatment:- Implant replacement of a tooth & Smile design with Veneers
I had a good experience with them i feel so happy to have a perfect smile and i really recommend Opus Dental Specialities for my friends and family.
Thanks to Opus Dental Specialities.
Treatment:- Fast & fixed full mouth restoration with Teeth in a Day
Excellent treatment procedure and very good team of doctors. I am very grateful to Dr. Khan for giving back my confidence & smile.
Thank You

Imagine television as an interactive experience, where you can message friends, play games with them, access an electronic program guide, share ratings amongst members of a social network that you can join, receive ratings from experts and other information about television broadcasts, access shows on desktop PCs and handheld devices, search for broadcasts with specific actors or themes, and have personalized recommendations made to you.
That just brushes the surface of what is described in a new patent application from Yahoo.
Framework for providing ancillary content in a television environment
Invented by Michael Mills, Philip Mckay, Michael Hoch, Kumiko Tanaka Toft, and Rod Perkins
US Patent Application 20060184579
Published August 17, 2006
Filed on January 5, 2006
The present invention provides functionality for retrieving ancillary content associated with the content delivered to a given user's client device.
According to one embodiment, the method of the present invention comprises retrieving the context of a given user and identifying a plurality of characteristics associated with the user's context.
The one or more characteristics associated with the user's context are displayed to the user and the user may select from the displayed characteristics.
One or more items of content are retrieved based upon the user's selection and presented to the user on the user's client device.
Is this TV 2.0? Maybe. The patent describes more functionality that is presently seen in Yahoo!'s Go Tv Beta (now Yahoo Connected TV).
And, at the bottom of the Yahoo TV pages is this message:
Are you a software engineer who loves Movies and TV?
Yahoo! Entertainment is seeking experienced backend and frontend developers.
It will be interesting to see where Yahoo takes this.

On Health Care.
Howdy, y'all.
the following was rejected by the Dallas Morning News and the Rockwall Herald Tribune. My purpose in writing it was to try and persuade Republican readers that we are looking at facts rather than ideology. I wanted them to retrace my steps in researching health care and to, hopefully, reach the same conclusion.
The health care debate has fallen prey to perverse political calculations. I am aware that statistics can be interpreted – and spun – so as to fit ideology. I therefore went in …Read More »

Website designed & produced by Fiona Curtis
Supported by Compton Parish & Guildford Borough Councils & Compton Village Association
The last 50 -100 years have seen significant changes in village life throughout the UK and Compton is no exception. Thanks to a conservation order, Compton has retained much of its character
The Old Post Office Stores stopped trading as a Post Office in 1986. It was an Antiques Shop for a period before becoming a residential property in 1995.
There are currently 2 Public Houses in Compton but over the years there were others. White Hart Cottage was a pub which was known by a variety of names. Brook House was built on the site of a pub called 'The Bear' and the site that now houses Rustic Antiques and the Lynhams was formerly a pub called Aum Outlett.
The village school was closed in 1975 and is now a residential property. The 'Old Congregational Church' is also residential, it's origins stemming from the non-conformist movement during last Century, when Mrs Watts laid the foundation stone there, as she did at the village hall.
In 1809 there were two cottages in between Poplar Cottage and the Old School House (on the common). The landlord, Joseph Hollis, lived in the cottage on the right (both since demolished) and his tenant, John Cooper lived next door with his Mother and a child. It was said that Mr Hollis wasn't particularly popular as he flaunted his money and when he increased the rent and threatened eviction the tenant planned his demise! Amongst the witnesses was one Thomas Whitelaw, the proprietor at the Harrow. The trial took place in August at Guildford, both Cooper and his Mother Mary were charged, but Mary confessed to her Son's guilt and was therefore declared not guilty.
As is the case with many of the cottages in Compton, South Cottage has been subject to a considerable number of changes over the years.
House Histories informs us that the cottage was referred to in 1517 where Westbury Manor records showed that the tennent 'Catherine Wheeler' had died, leaving the property in the care of David Evan, guardian to her son John, until he came of age. A dispute was later recorded, over the ownership of the property which eventually went to her son, John.
Between that time ( reign of Henry VIII) and the present day, the house has fallen into disrepair, been subject to rebuild and been changed from cottages to a single dwelling. The Stovold family remained tennents for approximately 350 years and in the early 19th century the property became part of the Eastbury Estate until it was sold in 1963, along with many of the ' tied cottages' linked to the Estate.
Information and image linked to South Cottage, reproduced with kind permission from Philip & Sally Gorton.
To find out about YOUR house contact www.house-history-research.co.uk or email email@example.com
South Cottage - 1880. During 1890's it
was known by theTudor name ' Barber's'
There are 31 listed buildings in Compton, the list can be found HERE
Many are included in the slide show above, although not all and every house has a story!
Until 1913, the rector lived at the Grange, in the Avenue. In 1913, the Terry's bought the Grange and the Rector moved to the new Arts & Crafts house that remained the Rectory until very recently. Planning permission now exists to build another new house in the grounds of the Rectory, which will become the new abode for our Priest in Charge.
Moors Cottage was once a Coffee House and serve refreshments to the many visitors that frequented Watts Gallery and visited the Wattses. It originates from 17thC and possibly earlier. Cypress Farm originates from 16thC as does Mission Cottage.
The map on the right is from 1760 and shows that whilst many of the houses in Compton have since been replaced, their origins go back a long way.
If you look at Compton from the Compton heights in Down Lane or the ridge that runs parallel to Priorsfield Road, you can see that Compton is in a valley. Before the introduction of drainage, this meant substantial areas were marshy and we can see that today in old place names.
Withies Lane and Polsted Lane have watery derivatives, as Withies or reeds grew near water and Polsted is thought to come from 'Pool' sted. We also have Waterhaw Cottage and Island House, and in 1760, we can see that the Southern section of the village was referred to as Compton Marsh.

It is always a struggle to find a movie on Pay Per View or a Red Box for "family movie night" that The Favorite Son, my teen daughters will enjoy, and I will, if not enjoy, be able to tolerate. I have certainly appreciated the effort that many studios have made to make kids' films more enjoyable for parents. When my younger daughter chose Sky High, I was not terribly optimistic, but Disney actually did a pretty good job making it sort of fun for this GenXer. More importantly, the younger crowd LOVED it.
Will Stronghold (Michael Angarano), the son of two superheroes, Commander (Kurt Russell) and Jetstream (Kelly Preston), is about to start high school. Will is not going to just any high school. As the son of superheroes, he will go to Sky High School, where he will follow in is parent's footsteps. However, Will has a secret. He does not have any super powers, so he is relegated to classes for "Sidekick's," and that is obviously a disappointment to his famous father. At Sky High, Will must deal with everything a normal kid must face while growing up, but, through a series of typically teen-age blunders, discovers he must also face his parents' greatest nemesis, Royal Pain (Mary Elizabeth Winstead). The future of Sky High and of the entire world depends on Will.
Disney used a lot of great tricks to transcend the generational gap in Sky High. For GenY, some of the costumes, acting, and special effects were very much reminiscent of the wildly popular, live-action, Saturday morning television show, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. What boy born after 1978 was not secretly in love with the Pink Power Ranger portrayed by Amy Jo Johnson? (Confession: When my little sister watched Power Rangers a couple of decades ago, I was sort of into the Pink Power Ranger myself!) Royal Pain's costume, body movements, secret hideout, and general evil demeanor are a dead-ringer for "Power Rangers" genre. For Gen X, a wonderful little trick that I had not seen before, although I have to imagine it has already been employed, is the use of classic, coming-of-age anthems, like, among others, "I Melt The World," "Save It For Later," "Voices Carry," "Everybody Wants To Rule The World," "And She Was," but had them recorded by contemporary artists. Heck, I think the entire soundtrack is comprised of `80's remakes. (I still think The Talking Heads' version of "And She Was" is superior to that of Keaton Simons, but what would a nine year old care?) For both Baby Boomers and some early GenXers, the casting of Kurt Russell is sort of an interesting bookend to Russell's Disney career. I remember going with my parents to local single screen cinema to see Disney's The Computer Who Wore Tennis Shoes and The World's Strongest Man with Kurt Russell playing the teen-age lead. Appearances by the original television "Superwoman," Linda Carter, as well as Kids in the Hall, Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald go a long way to make Sky High ironically humorous for the adult audience. Nicely done.
A film completely appropriate for the younger crowd with just a little cartoonish violence, Sky High is a thumb's up for both kids and parents. This is the kind of movie that made Disney what Disney was. If we see more Sky High's, Disney will be that wholesome, fun, entertainment juggernaut again.

Come all ye brave heroes who handle a gun,
Beware of night ramblin' by the setting of the sun;
And be aware of an accident that happened of late,
To young Molly Bawn and sad was her fate.
She was going to her uncle's
when a shower came on,
She went 'neath a green bush the shower to shun;
With her apron 'round her he took her for a swan,
It's a sob and a sigh it was Oh! Oh! Molly Bawn.
He quickly ran to her and saw that she was dead,
And it's many's a salt tear on her bosom he shed;
He went home to his father with his gun in his hand,
Crying father, dear father, I have shot Molly Bawn.
I have shot that young colleen, I have taken the life,
Of the one I intended to take for my wife;
Oh, Johnny, young Johnny, do not run away,
Don't you leave your own country till your trial day.
Don't you leave your own country
till your trial comes on,
For you'll never be convicted
for the loss of a swan;
The night before Molly's funeral
her ghost it did appear,
Saying, Mother, dear Mother,
young Johnny he's clear.
I was going to my uncle when a shower came on,
But tell him he's forgiven by his own Molly Bawn;
The girls in this country they are all very glad,
Since the pride of Glen Allen,
Molly Bawn, is now dead.
The girls in this country stand them all in a row,
Molly Bawn would shine above them
like a mountain of snow.

3 – LUSH lip scrub
I love this it really helps to "clean up" those dry lips and makes your lips and then you apply your favorite lip balm, I usually apply the Burt's Bees because it's a little thicker feeling.

Default PostgreSQL logging is quite discreet.
Supposing you would want to log some SQL statements, and in the same time have a more frequent rotation of your logs, here are the lines to change in you postgresql. conf file:
# Changed from -%a to -%a%H%M
log_filename = 'postgresql-%a%H%M.log' # log file name pattern,
# Changed from 1d to 60min
log_rotation_age = 60 # Automatic rotation of logfiles will # happen after that time. 0 disables.
# Changed from 0 to 512k
log_rotation_size = 512 # Automatic rotation of logfiles will # happen after that much log output. # 0 disables.
# Changed from -1 to 0
log_min_duration_statement = 0 # -1 is disabled, 0 logs all statements # and their durations, > 0 logs only # statements running at least this number # of milliseconds
# Changed from none to mod
log_statement = 'mod' # none, ddl, mod, all
Beware of the log_statement parameter on overloaded systems, as your log files might experience some pretty heavy I/O.
Leave me a note if this post has been useful.
Happy computing,

Archibald Paull Burt, "reputed to be the ablest lawyer in the West Indies", arrived in Western Australia in 1861 at the age of 50 when bureaucratic disputes blocked his preferment in the Caribbean.
He came from a long established family of sugar planters in the Leeward Islands, where he himself was a slave owner for a short time. Educated in England, he was, by the age of 45, a West Indies QC, a Crown Law officer, and active in the legislature of St Kitts.
In 1861 he became Civil Commissioner and Chairman of Quarter Sessions at Western Australia, adapting himself and his family to the then isolation of Perth, and finding the climate beneficial to his health. He advised the government on the need for a Supreme Court of comprehensive jurisdiction and helped to see into place that and many other legal and constitutional changes. He was appointed first Chief Justice of the colony and, until his death in 1879, he was the Colony's sole judge.
A commanding lawyer and a man of great independence and diligence, well versed in all aspects of colonial administration, he directed the court and the legal profession along English lines, having, at times, spirited differences with some free-thinking members of the Bar who were reluctant to conform. So strong were the foundations on which he set the law and its institutions in the colony that they survived the mischief worked by lesser lawyers who succeeded him in the nineteenth century.
"I ... enjoyed these new editions as much as their predecessors. Dr. Bennett has a way of bringing his characters back to life, with amusing little anecdotes, such as that Burt had, on occasion, to hold an umbrella up whilst sitting in Perth, due to the poor condition of the Court. ...
I sincerely believe that politicians, today, could do well to read these books. They might thereby gain some insight into the difficulties that judicial officers face in one of the most misunderstood vocations.
I would say the same for lawyers as well, who might obtain a greater sense of understanding of the difficulties faced in the mid 1800's by judicial officers, and reflect on the fact that not much has changed in 150 years." - Tasmanian Law Society Newsletter, March 2003

In the Washington Post on 10th September, Katrina vanden Heuvel said
'There would not have been such a concerted Russian nationalist response to the crisis had the West not sowed the seeds of suspicion and mistrust over the past 18 years by growing NATO's presence in Eastern Europe, in spite of the assurances that Russia ostensibly received from the George H.W. Bush administration that "NATO will not expand one inch to the east". Russia clearly views NATO expansion not only as provocative but also as a betrayal of an agreement, and it perceives NATO's push toward its borders as an act of aggression – and Western leaders know it.'

STANDARD (OSLO) is proud to present a solo exhibition of new works by Anna Zacharoff, gathering a group of paintings all dedicated to the fish entirely constructed by man but never to be consumed: the goldfish.
If "Gone in 60 seconds" was a film starring goldfish, there would be 20 twists and turns to the plot before the minute had come to an end. Supposedly the goldfish is only equipped with a 3 second long attention span. Instantly forgetting what is was initially supposed to do, it almost seems humane to put the goldfish in a bowl. It is not so much an act of imprisonment as it is an act of clarification. There are only two ways to go, and they both take you back to the spot where you started. It leaves the goldfish with a task not too complicated to perform – a Tayloristic management of movement, so to speak.
During his studies of workers in the steel manufacturing industry in America during the 1880s and 1890s, Frederick Winslow Taylor pioneered what came to be known as a scientific management of the workplace. His brutal analysis, however, frequently failed to conceal a condescending attitude towards less intelligent workers: "Now one of the very first requirements for a man who is fit to handle pig iron as a regular occupation is that he shall be so stupid and so phlegmatic that he more nearly resembles in his mental make-up the ox than any other type. The man who is mentally alert and intelligent is for this very reason entirely unsuited to what would, for him, be the grinding monotony of work of this character. Therefore the workman who is best suited to handling pig iron is unable to understand the real science of doing this class of work." Taylor identifies a comfort in knowing exactly what you are expected to do and the comfort of not needing to worry about anything located outside of that. Similar to a young Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank before suspicion sets in later in "The Truman Show", taking comfort in the same patterns daily repeating themselves. Blissfully unaware of the need to choose, or weighed down by other expectations, Truman is making the same circles in his goldfish bowl version of a world. And the viewers that are watching him daily on TV are sensing a calming feeling, like looking at a fire – uneventful but pleasant. No need to think, overthink or focus on anything but the moment in itself. The moment that replaces another similar moment; predictable, forgettable, replaceable. The goldfish bowl is not for major contemplation.
Yet the goldfish is the motif that runs throughout the third exhibition of Anna Zacharoff at STANDARD (OSLO). The starting point for this series of paintings was not staring at a goldfish bowl but a visit to a now defunct small aquarium in Brussels showcasing what we do not know: the goldfish in its original breed and in its original surrounding. This sturdy small fish, belonging to the carp family and stemming from China, was one of several endangered species that here were attempted bred and kept in an environment as close to their natural habitat as possible. Referring back to a time before creative leisure and carp ponds in parks, a time before Matisse paintings of interiors with goldfish bowls and a time before a general cultivation of this species as an element of decoration of modern life. The very colour orange only identified and named in the late 15th century, when Portuguese merchants brought orange trees back to Europe after travels in Asia. Prior to that the colour had only been referred to as yellow-red. Interestingly enough, the goldfish made the same journey from Asia to Portugal a mere 100 years thereafter. During the early 1600s, goldfish were highly regarded in southern Europe because of their brightness of colour and metallic scales, and came to symbolise good luck and fortune. Married men would in fact give their wives a goldfish on their first anniversary, as a symbol of a prosperous future. The tradition, however, died as goldfish became more available, losing their attraction value. Now, reduced to the most clichéd and "man made" of pets, and commonly dumbed down to two big eyes, a belly, a mouth and that signal orange colour. They say that to dream about being a goldfish is a warning about protecting yourself.
Anna Zacharoff (b. 1987, Stockholm) lives and works in Brussels, Belgium. She graduated in 2015 from the Städelschule - Staatliche Hoschschule für Bildene Künste in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Recent solo exhibitions include "Breathe In Breathe Out" at Neue Alte Brücke, Frankfurt am Main, Germany; "So Far, So Food" at Vilma, Gold, London, UK; "Regular Co." at Kunstverein Wiesbaden, Wiesbaden, Germany.

Employees are entitled to a workplace freed from discrimination and harassment due to a protected class corresponding to sex, age, race, sexual orientation, gender identification, and incapacity. Disparate impact discrimination happens under Title VII when a member of a protected group (minority, faith, sex) has been excluded from employment due to an employer's practices such as the usage of written exams, height and weight necessities, academic requirements, and subjective procedures, comparable to interviews" (Brame, 2009).
While efforts to eliminate discrimination and make certain no one is excluded such amendments came after Title VII, including additional safety from experiencing discrimination in many different areas. Age Discrimination is commonly considered a matter of opinion, however in the event you think your declare is legitimate, you should show it to the U. S. Equal Employment Commission.
An employment tribunal is way much less formal, cheaper, and a significantly quicker way to resolve employment disputes. Discrimination and sexual harassment are an unfortunate reality within the American office, however the provisions in Title VII help workers to find justice within the legal system.
So as to prove employment discrimination, one must show that the employer meant to treat the employee in a different way because of a sure class or characteristic. The ADEA covers private employers with 20 or more workers, state and native governments (including college districts), employment companies, and labor organizations.
Individuals with Disabilities Act: This act prohibits employment discrimination based mostly on a incapacity. Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) The PDA, which is a part of Title VII, prohibits discrimination on the basis of being pregnant , childbirth, or associated medical conditions.

There are many ideas surrounding the cause of antisocial behavior and criminality. Through this independent study class for Fort Hays State University's Justice Studies (Graduate) Program, I felt I would have the perfect opportunity to explore many of theories which have developed, over time, to explain criminal behavior. It is my hope that this research paper will provide an extensive and educational look at how the psychology of a criminal impacts the activity which is produced. It seems that every year brings new ideas, but I feel that the following is a conclusive look of research compiled from the beginning of criminality to the present. I have also provided a history of criminality and how it has developed into what we now understand as forensic psychology. This field will always remain fluid with discovery, and my greatest pleasure would come from being part of it in the future. Abstract This advanced research project examines the history and theories surrounding criminal behavior. The history and theories of criminal behavior continue to influence the work of today's Forensic Psychologist. Many theories used are continuing to be modified; however, the information provided is as accurate and up to date as possible. I use a mixture of primary and secondary sources with one graph for example. History The History of Forensic Psychology The application of psychology in the criminal and civil justice system is known as forensic psychology. Hugo Munsterberg (1863 – 1916), a German‐American psychologist was the first to pioneered the application of criminal psychology in research and theories. His research extended to witness memory, false confessions, and the role of hypnosis in court (http://ezinearticles.com). In 1889, psychology students were beginning to take courses related to law such as "Crime and Modern Theories of the Criminal," but for the most part, American psychologists did not immediately embrace the study of legal issues (Bersoff, Ogloff, & Tomkins, 1996). For reasons unstated, the study of psychology and law began to wane after World War II (Bersoff, Ogloff, & Tomkins, 1996). In the 1960's, psychologists were beginning to "be called on" to make predictions of dangerousness, make clinical assessments relevant to insanity defense pleas, and make assessments and/or offer testimony about other mental health issues in the courts (Bersoff, Ogloff, & Tomkins, 1996). In the early 1980's law, criminal justice, and social science would become embraced in legal education. Interdisciplinary and specialized training was introduced at the doctoral, internship, post‐doctoral, and continuing educational levels. Textbooks began devoting themselves to forensic testimony and assessment. (Bersoff, Ogloff, & Tomkins, 1996). "Nearly three quarters of a century, from the time that Munsterberg had called for an application of psychology to law, his call had been answered" (Bersoff, Ogloff, & Tomkins, 1996). Theories of Criminal Behavior Rational Choice Theory Dr. William Glasser, MD coined the term choice theory. According to many criminologists, choice theory is perhaps the most common reason why criminals do the things they do. This theory suggests that the offender is completely rational when making the decision to commit a crime (Siegel, 2005, p. 73). The variety of reasons in which one offends can be based on a variety of personal needs, including: greed, revenge, need, anger, lust, jealousy, thrills, and vanity. The rational choice theory has its root in the classical school of criminology which was developed by Italian "social‐thinker" Cesare Beccaria (Siegel, 2005, p. 74). Classical criminology suggests that "people have free will to choose criminal or conventional behaviors…and that crime can be controlled only by the fear of criminal sanctions (Siegel, 2005, p. 74). Inside the rational choice theory there are three models of criminal behavior: rational actor, predestined actor, and victimized actor. The rational actor proposed that individuals choose whether to commit a crime. With this belief, crime could simply be controlled by increasing the penalty of offending (Burke, 2001). The predestined actor proposes that criminals cannot control their personal urges and environment, thus, inducing them to commit crime. The way to solve this problem would then be to change the biological, sociological, and psychological environment of the offender (Burke, 2001). Finally, the victimized actor model proposes that crime is the result of the offender being a victim of an unequal society. Thus, the crime could be controlled by reforming legislation (Burke, 2001). Eysenck's Theory of Personality and Crime The late Hans J. Eysenck, British psychologist, is most well known for his theory on personality and crime. His theory proposed that "criminal behavior is the result of an interaction between certain environmental conditions and features of the nervous system" (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 99). This is certainly not one of the contemporary theories of crime, rather, Eysenck's emphasis is placed on the genetic predisposition toward antisocial and criminal behavior. Followers of his theory believe that each individual offender has a unique neurophysiological makeup that when mixed with a certain environment, therefore, can't help but result to criminality (Bartol and Bartol, 2005, p. 99). It is important to note that Eysenck was not suggesting that criminals are born, rather that the combination of environment, neurobiological, and personality factors give rise to different types of crimes, and those different personalities were more susceptible to specific criminal activity. To further understand this theory, Eysenck explains it as follows: It is not itself, or criminality that is innate; it is certain peculiarities of the central and autonomic nervous system that react with the environment, with upbringing, and many other environmental factors to increase the probability that a given person would act in a certain antisocial manner (Eysenck & Gudjonsson, 1989, p. 7). Table 1 Summary Table of Eysenck's Theory (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 100) Personality Trait Neurobiological Influence High Scores Low Scores Extraversion RAS, CNS Stimulation Seeking Stimulation Avoidance Neuroticism Autonomic. NS Nervous, unstable Stable, calm Psychoticism Excessive androgen Tough‐minded Tender‐minded When looking at the above table, Eysenck shows three main factors for temperament, being extraversion, neuroticism, and psychoticism. A large majority of crime research today focuses precisely on the first two traits. Eysenck did not actually identify psychoticism until later, when he found a need to identify behavior that cannot be explained as extraversion and neuroticism. Eysenck's studies showed that the typical extravert tends to lose his temper quickly, becoming aggressive and unreliable (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 102). He then believed that extraverts need a higher level of excitement and stimulation, known as "arousal theory." The need for high amounts of stimulation then lead to more likely encounters with the law. "They enjoy pranks and practical jokes and find challenge in opportunities to do the unconventional, or even to engage in antisocial behavior" (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 102). The physiological bases of extraversion are related to the Reticular Activating System (RAS). The RAS arouses the cerebral cortex and keeps it alert to incoming stimuli (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 103). The base of neuroticism is frequently linked to the emotional area of the brain. This dimension reacts to how one successfully deals with stressful events. Whereas the extraversion center of the brain is linked to the central nervous system, neuroticism relates to the autonomic nervous system (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 105). Neurotic individuals are believed to achieve an emotional level quickly and then remain at that level for a longer amount of time than non‐ neurotic individuals (Eysenck & Gudjonsson, 1989, p. 13). As mentioned earlier, Eysenck used the word psychoticism as a word to identify behaviors that are not explained by neuroticism and extraversion. Eysenck used his research to categorize individuals who exhibited cold, cruel, unemotional, and insensitive characteristics, not the clinical definition of psychotic which means out of touch with reality (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 107). To sum up the Eysenck's Theory of Criminality, offenders as a whole will demonstrate low levels of extraversion (cortical arousal), high levels of neuroticism (autonomic arousal), and are more tough‐minded in the psychotic sense. Although there is much research that refutes this theory, researchers believe that if new data were modified, the theory as a whole may still be promising and useful (Bartol & Bartol, 2005, p. 111). Trait Theory Trait theory is a more extreme version of Eysenck's theory. The view is that criminality is a product of abnormal biological or psychological traits. The root of trait theory can be traced back to Italian criminologist Cesare Lombroso. His research regarding trait theory is still considered historical curiosity, not scientific fact, but it is a theory none the less (Siegel, 2005, p. 98). Lombroso believed that offenders were atavists. The word atavism refers to "an ancient, ancestral trait that appears in modern life." He stated, "[Criminals were] Neanderthal‐like beings born, by some unexplained evolutionary glitch, into the modern world (Schechter, 2003, p. 248). Because offenders were considered "throwbacks to the prehistoric past," there were certain characteristics that were supposed to be identifiable. These features were considered to look more primitive and ape‐like. These distinguishing characteristics were: small skulls, sloping foreheads, jutting brows, protruding ears, bad teeth, barrel chests, disproportionately long arms, and various other traits (Schechter, 2003, p. 248). Unfortunately, Lombroso's trait theory has been compared to the "nineteenth century pseudoscience of phrenology" (Schechter, 2003, p. 248). We know today that criminals come in all shapes and sizes. Contemporary trait theorists do not suggest that a single physical or biological attribute explains all criminality. Rather, each criminal has a unique set of characteristics that explain behavior. The understanding is now split among many possibilities. Some may have inherited criminal tendencies, some may have neurological problems, and yet other research shows some criminals may have blood chemistry disorders which heighten antisocial activity (Schechter, 2003, p. 98). There is a definite link between behavior patterns and chemical changes in the brain and nervous system. Biocriminologists believe that criminals are genetically predetermined. They maintain that the body needs a stable amount of minerals and chemicals for normal brain functioning and growth. "Chemical and mineral imbalance leads to cognitive and learning deficits…and these factors in turn are associated with antisocial behavior" (Schechter, 2003, p. 100). Researched studies have lined hypoglycemia to violence and abnormal levels of male sex hormones produce aggressive behavior (Schechter, 2003, p. 100). Other physiological correlates of crime and antisocial behavior are low serotonin, low autonomic arousal, and impaired prefrontal cortical functioning. Many of the genes associated with crime affect the neurotransmitter systems. "A gene that confers sensitivity to dopamine may increase sensation seeking‐which is a characteristic of antisocial behavior" (Wiebe, 2004). Psychodynamic Trait Theory Psychodynamic (Psychoanalytical) therapy was developed by Sigmund Freud in the late 1800's and has then become a significant theory in the history of criminality (Siegel, 2005, p. 111). Freud believed that every individual carries "[the]residue of the most significant emotional attachments of our childhood, which then guides our future interpersonal relationships" (Siegel, 2005, p. 111). The theory is a three‐part structure made up of the id, the ego, and the super ego. The id is considered the underdeveloped or primitive part of our make‐up. It controls our need for food, sleep, and other basic instincts. This part is purely focused on instant gratification. The ego controls the id by setting up boundaries. The superego is in charge of judging the situation through morality (Siegel, 2005, p. 112). Psychodynamic theorists believe that offenders have id‐dominated personalities. In other words, they lose control of the ego and the id's need for instant gratification takes over. This causes impulse control problems and increased pleasure‐seeking drives. Other problems associated with a damaged ego are immaturity, poor social skills, and excessive dependence on others. The idea is that negative experiences in an offenders childhood damages the ego, therefore, the offender is unable to cope with conventional society. (Siegel, 2005, p. 113). Other psychoanalytical theorists believe that many criminals are driven by an unconscious need to be punished for previous sins (either real or imaginary). Therefore, "crime is a manifestation of feelings of oppression and people's inability to develop the proper psychological defense and rationales to keep these feelings under control (Siegel, 2005, p. 113). Social Structure Theory If biology could explain criminality, then why is the majority of crime and violence in poor, underdeveloped neighborhoods? To ignore environmental and social aspects contributing to crime would be a mistake. People who live in the United States live in what is called a "stratified society" (Siegel, 2005, p. 126.) Stratification refers to, "a hierarchical arrangement…compromising three main layers: upper class, middle class, and lower class" (www.wikipedia.com). There are three mini theories which fall under the Social Structure Theory which attempt to explain how one's environment and social circle can aid to crime. The following information can be found in Criminology, (2nd ed.) on page 138: Social disorganization theory: focuses on the urban conditions that effect crime rates. A disorganized area is one in which institutions of social control, such as family, commercial establishments and schools have broken down and can no longer perform their expected or stated functions. Indicators of social disorganization include high unemployment and school dropout rates, deteriorated housing, low income levels and large numbers of single parent households. Residents in these areas experience conflict and despair, and as a result, antisocial behavior flourishes. Strain theory: holds that crime is a function of the conflict between people's goals and the means they can use to obtain them. Strain theorists argue that although social and economic goals are common to people in all economic strata, the ability to obtain these goals is class‐dependent…members of the lower class are unable to achieve [symbols of] success through conventional means. Lower class citizens can both accept their conditions and live socially responsible…or they can choose an alternative means of achieving success, such as theft or violence. Cultural deviance theory: combines elements of both strain and social disorganization theories. Because of this view…a unique lower‐class culture develops in disorganized neighborhoods. Criminal behavior is an expression of conformity to lower class sub‐ culture values and traditions, not a rebellion against traditional society. Social Process Theory Social process theorists believe that criminality is a "function of individual socialization, and the interactions people have with organizations, institutions, and processes of society" (Siegel, 2005, p. 155). Perhaps the most common approach to the social process theory is learning theory. Albert Bandura, an influential psychologist of the twentieth century, was the first to experiment with this idea. His observations began with animals and showed that showed that they do not have to actually experience certain events in their environment to learn effectively (Barlow & Durand, 2006, p. 59). In relation to criminality, one can learn to be aggressive by observing others acting aggressively. An example being: if "A" beats up other children on the playground and steals money from the victims, his little brother "B" is observing this situation. When "A" then uses the money to buy toys, "B" witnesses his big brother getting rewarded for the violent act through purchasing fun things to play with. In reality, it didn't matter that "A" was wrong; his behavior resulted in a positive result. There are two other approaches to social process theory. Social control theory is when one's behavior is groomed through the close associations of institutions and individuals. The second is social reaction theory. If an individual is already viewed (labeled) as a criminal from an early age, then it is more likely that this person will see becoming a criminal as fulfilling a prophecy, thus beginning his criminal career (Siegel, 2005, p. 159). Social Conflict Theory Social conflict theorists believe a person, group, or institution has the power and ability to exercise influence and control over others (Farrington & Chertok, 1993). Conflict theorists are concerned with: 1. The role government plays in creating a crimogenic environment, 2. The relationship between personal or group power and the shaping of criminal law, 3. The prevalence of bias in justice system operations, and 4. The relationship between a capitalist, free enterprise economy and crime rates" They define crime as "a political concept designed to protect the power and position of the upper classes at the expense of the poor (Siegel, 2005, p. 186). The idea is that each society produces its own type and amount of crime. They have their own way of dealing with crime, and thus, get the amount of crime that they deserve (Siegel, 2005, p. 186). In other words, to control and reduce crime, societies must change the social conditions that promote crime. Conclusion Although there are differences in the many theories which have been presented, they all share a common belief. Criminal behavior is in many aspects of society, and it needs to be addressed. Through theories, researchers hope to develop a deeper understanding of how one can prevent criminal behavior before it reaches adolescent age or older. Choice theories really focus on the individual's decision and control over who they are and what they will be. Trait theories rely on research which proves that one's neurological process and conditioning is a large contributing factor to the criminal affect. Social theories lean toward the idea of environmental influences which govern one's state of being. Together, each one of these theories has relevant research and validity. Certainly, there are people who recognize each of these ideas and develop a combination theory of which to educate and direct therapy from. Overall, theories will continue to be developed, tested, and researched. The field of criminality is a large one of which many can and will continue to contribute.

i absolutely love the sleek black from fastener. I would highly recommend this product to any and everyone. I plan to order more because of the comfort and sleekness of them. Great Job!
Bra has changed and I don't llike it as much doesnt hold me in as well
I found this bra very comfortable to wear with it being seamless and it doesn't catch wherever you have been cut. It is very easy to put on after an operation and wonderful to sleep in, highly recommended
Köpt och reklamerat efter 3:e dagen för att den öppnar sig. Mycket pinsamt och genant. Jag är mycket missnöjd med denna produkt och avråder er från att köpa den. Expediten var också mycket otrevlig när jag reklamerade den.
I found this bra comfortable and easy to fasten. I originally ordered 2, but soon ordered 2 more as comfort is so important after surgery, highly recommended.
à réception des deux soutien gorge une très forte odeur de pétrole s'en dégageait. j'ai lavé les 2 soutiens avant de les essayer et les emmener à l'hôpital. L'odeur à persistée et la taille était trop grande! impossible de retourner les articles !
Amazing product for anytime wear especially post surgery, lovely and soft, easy to put on without having to stretch your arms and the right amount of support. Highly recommended
This is a womderful comfortable Support bra for post surgery. Soft on the skin and easy front fastening I would Highly Recommend
Have worn this bra both following my double mastectomy and reconstruction and also following my expander swap and it's been fabulous. So comfy and a good level of support. The front fastening helped so much. Would highly recommend.

Excellent product. Very comfortable to wear. Like the range of colours and design . Could not have managed without the bra after surgery.
This bra is comfortable and easy to wear but would be better with adjustable shoulder straps which unfortunately it doesn't have.

COUNTDOWN: Mwalimu: The Legacy of Julius Kambarage Nyerere - Showing Tomorrow Wed 28th Oct at 8.45 pm Venue: Edinburgh, Filmhouse
Mwalimu: The Legacy of Julius Kambarage Nyerere
UK Premiere Book online
Tanzania 2009 52m BetaSP English and Swahili with English subtitles Rating 15 Doc
Showing Wed 28th Oct at 8.45 pm
In Tanzania today, Julius Kambarage Nyerere is warmly referred to as "Baba wa Taifa" – the "Father of the Nation". This documentary recognises Nyerere's leadership in the struggle that brought independence to the Tanzania mainland territory of Tanganyika in 1961; then in 1964 brought into being the union between Tanganyika and Zanzibar which established the United Republic of Tanzania. During his years as Head of State, President Nyerere's political and intellectual leadership reinforced his reputation as "Mwalimu" or "Teacher". He firmly placed Tanzania at the heart of the Southern Africa liberation struggle which culminated in the end of apartheid and the establishment of a democratic government in South Africa. During his retirement he championed the cause of the Southern countries and influenced the transformation of Tanzania from a one-party state to multi-party politics. In this one-hour documentary various individuals across different generations, including members of his immediate family, discuss how he is remembered and the ideas that define his legacy. October 2009 is the ten-year anniversary of the death of this remarkable African leader, who also had a direct connection to Edinburgh through obtaining a masters degree in history and economics at the University of Edinburgh in 1952.

It's been yay-long now since we returned home from our venture to the Mexican Borders. Perspective in its entirety began to take form immediately upon our arrival back to Canada, and yes, I'm still conversing with the occasional curious folk about the situation we bore witness to.
Anyone who comes back from diving into a 3rd world experience usually expresses the same feelings, depression, worthlessness, and while some come home with a new perspective on their fortunate living conditions, others may grow resentment. Discontentment. Hatred for earthly unbalance. This was me. I'm glad I waited this long to post my reflection blog, a chance to calm down, otherwise my post could have possibly raised a concerned eyebrow or two from the reader.
When we returned home from Mexico, I was able to repress my feelings towards society, as it wasn't 2 days before My cousin and I were off to Vancouver to see if we could hitchhike across Canada with a Guitar and a little bit of money. I was able to avoid the material obsessed 1st world I've been struggling with for years. I came home from that around the beginning of July and began, what I'd call a rough adjustment back into civilization. It was a very angry time. An Old Testament version of Joel appeared demanding an eye for an eye. There was a while there where I would fantasize about heading south, to the 'beast' (railroad Migrants use to head north), where I would acquire a sniper rifle, sit high up in a tree, with the train in view, and begin to snipe off any of those no-goods, getting in the way of others' honest quest for a better life. Put as many bullets in them as I can until somebody put a bullet in me. Go out, guns-a-blazin'. Dark, hey?
Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword. Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?"
The idea to raise awareness of the issue back home is lost on me. So many people are already committed to so many causes. What's another cause to them? One has to find something they're truly passionate about, but pressing it on others can typically only push people away, or patronize you. I'd have to say I disagree with writing letters to our local politicians, at least for me. Hopefully some of you have taken on the mission to spread the word, but I am not a marketer. I am a labourer. I want to apply myself, one person at a time. Anything less is mere propaganda.
And Jesus called them to him and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
I don't enjoy being the type who looks at everyone living contently in the 1st world in disgust. Wondering how they can do what they do, when there is so much that needs to be done. Nobody likes that guy. It's hypocritical, especially as I too am residing in Beautiful 1st world Canada – problem free. To leave now would be an act of pride, and arrogance. I'm working on channeling my frustrations in a productive manor. Clearly, I'm a little bit lost on my journey, but I'm learning. I'll make sure it's done with the Jesus Christ stamp of approval.
I think back fondly of all you chums I got to know in the month of May. Throwing 10 strangers in a van to hash out some serious issues abroad gives way for an interesting experience. We were all there, processing our own emotions with peers who were all doing the same in their own way. We challenged each other, supported each other, we were a good team. I can still hear Megan apologizing every time she spoke because she thought she was interrupting.

Lady - posted on 03/28/2010 ( 288 moms have responded )
I have noticed that a number of post on here are mums looking for help with potty training so thought I would create a place for mums to come and post their top tips. I hope people find this post helpful but if you feel your questions have been answered please feel free to still post your questions!!!
I'll start with my top tips and hope other mums will come along and post theirs;
Getting started;
If you feel your child is getting ready to start potty training (usually somewhere between the ages of 2-3) then the first thing you need to do is choose a potty. This is something you can get your child to do with you or you may want to present it to them at home. I have found that the chair type potties are the best but have had success with any type.
You can explain to the child what the potty is for but don't expect them to be ready to use it right away. Leave the potty around in the place where your child spends the most time playing and just let them use it as a toy for a while. This gets them used to it, it becomes part or the furniture and a lot less scary. After a while, during nappy changing you could ask the child to sit on the potty without a nappy on, but don't push it if they don't want to. If possible let the child play with out a nappy on for a while keeping the potty close at hand and hopefully they will start to sit on it. If they pee try to get them on the potty or sit them on after and explain that what it for, DO NOT get cross or angry about any accidents.
If the child is willing to sit on the potty try reading to them or put on their favourit TV programme and if they do anything make the BIGGEST fuss you have ever made in your life. Cheer, clap, dance around be sooooo happy and praise them with all your might!! Make the child feel they have done something wonderful and they'll want to do it again and again. Tell everyone, call aunts and grandparent and make sure Daddy makes a huge fuss when he gets home from work too.It won't happen all at once, there will be accidents or days when they won't want to but again don't get cross, try not to make a big deal of it, they need to get the attention for doing what you want, not for the opposite.
The biggest thing you can do to aid potty training is to not get stressed, don't rush it and remember all children will be potty trained in the end - how many children do you know that start school in nappies???
Other potty training problems;-
Number twos,
A lot of children who get the hang of peeing in the potty still have trouble pooing. My advice is to just let them wear a nappy or pull up pants for a while if that's what they want. It doesn't last long and just eases the stress for them. What to do is put on the nappy when they need it then when you take it off you and the child take the nappy to the toilet and flush away the poo saying good bye - I know it sounds mad but it does work. The problem is the child feels that they are letting something go and this gives them the chance to say goodbye.
Night time potty training;-
Some children very quickly will be dry through the night after getting the hang of day time potty training other wil take a lot longer. Sometimes if you have left the daytime training until the child is older then night time comes quicker, boys quite often take longer to be dry through the night than girls.
Most will just start to do it themselves but if you want to help thentry limmitting their fluid in the evenings - don't ever let your child go thirsty - still give them a drink with dinner and before bed but just don't let them over indulge and make sure they at least try to use the toilet or potty before bed. I don't recomend lifting your child to them on the toilet before you go to bed as this is teaching them to pee will still half asleep and in the end counter productive.
Moving on to the toilet ;-
Once your child has got the hang of going pee and poo in the potty you can try moving the potty into the bathroom, this may take a few months but again try not to rush as you don't want any set backs. Once they start to use the potty in the bathroom you can encourage them to start using the toilet, I recomend getting a special set which goes over the toilet seat to make it smaller and less fightening for little bottoms, a stool or step can be useful too to help get them up.
I hope this has been of some help and look forward to seeing everyone elses top tips!!
