Creative Employment Programme generates 298 jobs in four months
The second round of applications to the Creative Employment Programme (CEP) has created 84 apprenticeships and 45 internships for unemployed young people across England, bringing the total number of jobs created to 298 since the CEP was launched in March.
Creative & Cultural Skills are aiming to create 6,500 work opportunities for young people over the next two years.
The latest round of funding has resulted in notable success for theatres, with approved applications from Spotlites Theatre Company Ltd., New Theatre Royal Portsmouth and Kneehigh Theatre Trust.
London Theatre Consortium (LTC), made up of 13 theatres across London, and the Liverpool Arts Regeneration Consortium, a group of seven major cultural organisations in Liverpool, have also received funding to create new entry-level positions.
The contemporary craft industry will also benefit from the latest funding round, with the National Centre for Craft and Design and the British Ceramics Biennial receiving funding to offer new opportunities in their organisations.
Jessica Hepburn, Executive Director of the Lyric Hammersmith and vice-Chair of the LTC says:
"This feels like a landmark moment. It is the first time that 13 London theatres have worked collaboratively to offer a new route into our industry. Sadly our sector is still shockingly under-representative of the diverse city in which we work. This programme could really start to change that in a meaningful way. It's incredibly exciting."
Iain Cartwright, General Manager, British Ceramics Biennial, says:
"This a fantastic opportunity for us to increase our capacity, by providing internship opportunities for two young people to work, support and promote the best in contemporary ceramics through the British Ceramics Biennial Festival."
Catherine Large, Joint CEO, Creative & Cultural Skills, says:
"We are thrilled that employers from all over the country and right across the sector are engaging with the Creative Employment Programme in such a positive way. The programme is gaining real momentum as employers recognise the fantastic opportunity to increase their workforces with local talent, and contribute to long-term change in the sector in the process.
There are still 18 funding rounds to come over the next two years, so there remain many opportunities for other organisations to invest in the future workforce."
Joyce Wilson, Director, London, Arts Council England, says:
"The Creative Employment Programme is vital in helping young unemployed people find paid entry level work in arts and culture. It gives young people a fantastic opportunity to gain skills and experience that potential employers will value, and Arts Council England is delighted by the successes so far.
"As many young people across the country are struggling to find paid employment, this programme is more crucial than ever. There is a skills shortage in the arts sector - more than a quarter of creative and cultural organisations report having had difficulty in recruiting due to a lack of experience and skills in applicants. We risk long term damage to the arts in this country if young people cannot gain entry into the sector and we lose that generation of talent. Thankfully programmes like The Creative Employment Programme are there to help young people get their first step on the career ladder."
Funding rounds for the Creative Employment Programme run every 5 weeks with the next round closing on Friday 12th July 2013.

Hi all
Some years ago I was introduced to to the methods of training developed by Scott Sonnon, and immediately adopted them with enthusiasm. There was something that felt right about the movements, they left me feeling looser and healthier, with a sense of ever-evolving skill.
Moving to Dubai I lost the connection to my peer group, and eventually ceased training for a while, to my physical and emotional detriment. Recently it became time to get back into CST, and my enthusiastically talking my walk has created a growing interest in Intu-Flow® and FlowFit® as alternatives to conventional fitness approaches.
I am discovering what seems to be strong interest in the benefits Intu-Flow®, and an opportunity to move beyond just my small private training group. The practice of Intu-Flow® will benefit many within this city, and is an answer to an unaddressed need. The often-stressful lifestyle in this part of the world predisposes people to requiring the health benefits IF and FF bring.
I work with a diverse group of individuals, which keeps me learning, motivated and healthy. We have a lot of fun during our sessions, as our training nights are learning and social sessions, always challenging, always stimulating.
In May I will be training in Thailand with Coach Hurst, pursuing the IC.
CST made its most powerful impact on me some years ago when it healed a painful back injury that would flare up and make movement a misery, and restored functionality to a badly injured left arm in just a couple of months of Intu-Flow® practice. CST is results, simply.
I'm open to connecting with CST practitioners in this part of the world and growing the community in this region. I'd say there's a bright future ahead, and 2011 is the year when CST rocks!
"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life."

the iron doesnt have temp control and heats up really fast.. for thin and light hair the temperature could be an issue. this is the only negative point
the job is done in minutes since the plates are nice 2" wide and also the active ion gives shine to your hair.
its a good product instead of paying 2k in any store save 500 bucks by buying it on flipkart, delivers within 2 days.
No seriously , m not over rating it ..but its too good.With a sleek easy-to-carry design and convenient use , it scores 10/10 from me .I have used many straighteners in the past before i finally bought this one and the results are fabulous .dont think , just buy it ..dont go for low cost options because you will repent later.
i bought this product from FlipKart...and am very very happy usin it.. it is very use friendly, has a very attractive loo. the straigtner works like magic on hair... you have to just press your hair and slide down...it'll look like as if you have juz come out of a salon.. i dint have any prioir experience of using sraightner, so was worried before using it... but after using it...my frizzy curly hair has got a new shine.. and I'm getting praise everyday from my colleagues.. ;) so go on... use it..n feel d ddifference....
Everything about this beauty is marvelous. The purple inscription-ed design on the ceramic matte black plates, to the length of the cord, to the purple sparkly ion plates and also the finish of your hair. Its so easy to work with. And your hair is so touchable, silky,glossy, wow!!! amazing this is!
AND flipkart!! :) ur the next best thing.. u delivered it to me in a day!! :) thank u :)
verrrryyyyyy happy! :)
The Philips HP8315 is a great product, easy to use and gives amazing straight hair. It is compact in size and easy to store too. However, be careful as there is no indicator of heat levels. It heats up very quickly in 30 secs, and be sure to monitor the heat levels. But I love the feel of my hair after I use it, and it leaves the hair smooth and silky. Go for it!
And Flipkart is so amazing, to have delivered the product in less than 24 hours... keep up the good work flipkart..
Purchased it on 20th January, 2012. Initially I was bit nervous to use it, but now, when my hands are set, I love to straighte...

why ads?Vehicles with Consumer Reviews
Like other Lexus vehicles, the RX's front end is now graced with the sportier "spindle grille," and LED running lights and a power rear liftgate are standard. The RX F Sport is a new trim level with stiffer suspension and 8-speed transmission.
Buyers who found something to love in the 2011 RX 350 won't be disappointed by the vehicle's successor. The 2012 model carries on much the same, though the vehicle's 3.5-liter V6 engine now operates using 87-octane fuel for the first time.
The RX 350 continues to be the gold standard by which other luxury SUVs are measured, a claim bolstered by its status as one of the all-time best-selling luxury SUVs in the country. For 2007 the RX 350 (formerly the RX 330) receives a new engine and a host of new features to help keep it attractive to both new and repeat Lexus customers. Built on the same platform as the ES 350 sedan, the RX 350 offers the ride, handling and safety features of a premium luxury car with the tall ride height and all-wheel-drive versatility of a mid-size SUV. Outstanding repair records and top-notch resale values, combined with unrivaled build quality and customer service, explain why so many Americans flock to the RX 350.

| Babystalk, babystalk, it's a wonder you can walkPosted by SlumSlut
I don't "find" reasons (I don't have a neighbor who baby-stalks me either). When I want to get away from someone, I say "I have to go now" or "I've had enough of this, good-bye". Works for a lot of other things, too, not just baby-stalking. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "I have learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is easy and fun as hell"
Here is wisdom. Hell, I'm surprised anyone approaches me anyway.
Waiting in the checkout line at Walmart today and the loser in front of me alternated between "tickling" his son under his chin ( ), scolding him for biting his sister, and looking back at me like he wanted me to comment on the situation. When I whipped out my phone and started playing Bejeweled he got louder. I was so glad when he wheeled whatever crap he bought and his two fugly, inbred-looking (and acting) children out of the store.
OH MY GOD! This board is awesome! I feel like I have found the perfect place for me! I just wish I could actually find this community in real life not just online. I get so sick of the breeders and their spawn overtaking everything I could straight out scream. I work in a mall and I could just come unglued when my entire store is over run by strollers and snot nosed toddlers touching everything, squishing our product and just making chaos where peace should be. I am babystalked at least five times a day and because I am working there the Moo's expect you to coo over thier brat like you a give a shit that they are saying "hi" thirty five times in a row to you. I just want them to get what they need and get the hell out. I was sitting at a table making my schedule and a lady rolls up with a double rolling baby cadillac and parks it next to me with two screaching brats in it that are all to eager to show me thier build a bear. Like I am so interested?!?!?! Really?!?!?!? I go, "Thats nice" in my I don't give a shit voice and move away until she gets them out of there. Was I to be a baby sitter to her hideous offspring? Not part of my job, sorry! Did she not see that I was working? I stopped to help her but as far a sitter service I DON"T THINK SO! Same day within ten minutes of this situation another woman with her fuck trophys (FT's as I call them) rolls in and sits at my table, grabs my pen sitting there and lets her stupid brat write on my paper like it was there with the intention to keep her brats entertained. I hate kids, I get so tired of all the ways as a society we are expected to cater to them and their breeding parents!
you need a nice big WALL around your desk!
hahaha, i mostly smile when a little kid does that kind of thing to me... first, some of them are cute. second, i'm being thankful i'm not the kid's mom. that's why i smile. i can enjoy the cuteness of the kid for free! no, i never tell the proud mom how cute her child is. i hate doing that.
It depends on the kid. Sometimes a cute kid will do something unobtrusive like wave from a shopping cart and say hi. That really does not bug me at all. I think the parents who have to parade them and get LOWWWWDDDD when you don't notice their kid are far more annoying and are the ones who want validation. The kids could not give a shit; they say hi and if you don't respond they say hi to the next person. Invading my space, touching me, or stepping on my feet are a whole different story and most of them are past the cute stage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From a bottle cap message on a Magic Hat #9 beer: Condoms Prevent Minivans ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tranquilizers work only if you follow the advice on the bottle--keep away from children.
I can't use my account for a while.. Speaking of space invading,Once i catched a little brat trying to...lift my skirt. I shouted , HEY! His mom shouted at him too I thought the mom was going to apology, but she didnt Also holding the door open for moo and her brat...they didnt even see me, as if it is INDEED my obligation to hold the door open. Shit like this always happens
Happened the same when i was talking to a friend, a brat came and groped my ass and started laughing like an idiot. The worst part is that his mom started laughing too and encouraged him.
Hell, had one little shit girl peek through the crack in the stall I was in in the womens room. Fuckin little shit ran when she knew I was in a position to get her. Turns out she was there with the grandmoo, who I worked with in the store. Grandmoo tried to handle the fucker, and the shit ran out of the store. Pity she didn't run into the path of a car and get splattered. We should have been so lucky. Her ass should have been heated to the point of combustion. damn fuckin bitch. two cents ¢¢ CERTIFIED HOSEHEAD!!! people (especially women) do not give ONE DAMN about what they inflict on children and I defy anyone to prove me wrong: The selfish wants of adults outweigh the needs of the child. If I want to hear the pitter-patter of little feet I'll put shoes on my pets. Mankind and its needs (wants) are like unto a black hole. It devours all available resources and it never is full: it merely grows larger and demands more. Definition of 'wealthy': Anyone who makes more/has more than you do. Someone pointed out that I'm a realist. And all along I thought I was just a pessimist crossed with a cynic. Entitlement, thy name is mooooooooooooooo "Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen. Add to this that, many of those who refuse or are unable to prove they are citizens, will receive free insurance paid for by those who are."" Politicians are like diapers: both need changing regularly.
future little sex offender because mummy said "you can bee whaateeveeer YOU waaantt..."
Ugh!!!!! I'd freak out. I know they have no idea what is going on, but I'd at least expect an apology from the mom. She should be making sure this crap doesn't happen!
Why are the rest of us supposed to entertain the kyddies? Really? They're not with me, so therefore I will not deal with them. Why isn't the daddy taking care of it?
Got babystalked by some reaallll winners at the grocery store tonight. I knew I was in for it when a duh and his two daughters got in line behind me. It was the only line open, going very slowly, and I got stuck right in front of breeders. Super. So duh quickly starts doing the "making idiotic banter with his kyds in a higher and higher pitched voice" thing, then encourages the kids to "go play" at the candy/gum rack so they're right beside me. When I continue to completely ignore them they go back to duh. Apparently the kids starting jabbing him in the crotch, because I start hearing (louder and louder, in babytalk voice): Now KayleighAyna don't reach for my crotch honey! Kayleighsparkleigh DON'T REACH FOR MY CROTCH! heh heh!" over and over. God I couldn't get out of there fast enough.
that's NOT what he tells them AT HOME.
Wow. That's fucked up.
It's rare for me but got stalked today. And talk about your wrong day for it. Been on a search exercise for my volunteer gig. Been in an airplane with no AC, Temp today was a cool 105 F (40.5 C) flying over desert and rough terrain all freaking day. I'm hot, tired, dehydrated and cranky. I'm wearing a full aramid (Nomex) green flight suit and combat boots, dark sunglasses. I am just wanting to go home. Nope. Get the text from home - stop and pick up ... Oh joy Well I figure the usual suspects would be out at the Lake or at home drinking beer and causing their neighbors fits so a quick whip into walrusmart might be safe. BZZZZZZZZZ! WRONG BUNKY. Parking lot is a zoo with soccermom urban-assault vehicles all over. Get inside and it's wall to wall with teen hoochi mamas and urban west coasters trying to be rednecks. Of course there were wanna be tough guys in Tapout gear who have never seen the inside of a Dojo. Add to it the obese people on motorized carts, free range tweens, inattentive moos with attack strollers etc. The noise, the decibel level was louder than a Lycoming IO-540 without a headset. So I get to the carbonated poison (soda) isle. Redneck duh with a toddler on foot and baby in arms. Baby is in full on tearless, howling like a coyote meltdown. Toadler is antagonizing baby and duh is doing nothing till he turned and saw me. The out comes the overly loud - "Bratley stop that, Bratley!" Saw him glance my way like I'd stop and commiserate. Instead I cruised on by and went around to another isle. I went back past and saw duh was still in the isle so I kept going. Went and shopped up some things I didn't want. The isle with the hot dog rolls was nearly blocked by redneck moo with the new cell phone and having an overly loud call about something the kid at home wanted. So about 5 minutes later I went back to the soda isle and it was blissfully empty. Grabed the stuff DW wanted and headed for the door. Of course in typical moo fashion all the checkouts close to the door were two to three deep but the ones farther over were open with no line. Out I go as fast as possible. Still not safe. Crossing the parking lot I safely dodged the ricer with his cheep car and fancy v-tek stickers. Try fixing the dents and suspension dude. Get into the car and start away and evade the S MOO V that is driving across vacant parking spaces at about warp 4 instead of the lanes. DAMMIT JIM, I'm a nurse not a stunt driver ... Made it home intact. What a day. _______________________________________________ "I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things." - Antoine de Saint-Exupery
I believe I was stalked in the store the other day. Idiot duhd with squalling brat near by and you can always tell when they are facing you and getting closer because their voice gets more direct (eeew)...and I just got the HELL OUT OF THERE. There was that "pause" like he thought I would acknowledge they existed. THINK AGAIN! hahaa.....
i hate it when i'm ringing up a customer at the bookstore and the parent says to little ashleigh-ethan: "give the money to the lady...just reach up and give it to her...we have to pay for the books...that's only a dollar - how many more dollars do we need to make $4?" and on and on, as i stand there glaring. not. cute. it's a wordless bingo. ________________________________________________________ L'enfer, c'est les autres.

The Green Monster Tuesday, August 21, 2012 by Tallulah Ruby Green 11:16 PM Celtics fans have justly been labeled the best fans in sports. They are. Not only because of their all-weather devotion to the team and franchise, but because their reactions as a body have affected major decisions by both the team and players. I firmly believe that the night during the post-season when fans chanted "Let's Go Celtics" through the last minutes of a game we were 20 points down, management finally realized that to us, loyalty to the team we have and who we cherish can outweigh the importance of winning every game. Not only that, but our support of this group of men through both highs and lows is part of what enabled last season's embattled team to channel their strength and defy the odds again and again and again. And is probably why they – most of them – are still here, and why the one that left took out a full page ad in the globe to show his appreciation of them. But, as Ray Allen learned this summer, the fans' loyalty (which I affectionately refer to as "The Green Monster") can cut both ways. Historically it has been observed that "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned," but more recently I think both Ray Allen and Danny Ainge have had occasion to learn that "Hell REALLY hath no fury like a Celtics fan scorned." I remember listening to a radio show the day after Rondo was suspended for "bumping" a ref. It happened at the end of a long game of bogus calls and no-calls from a particularly officious set of officials. Watching the game at home, even I, a tree-hugging pacifist, was struggling to convince myself that the momentary pleasure of attacking the picture of the ref through the TV would not, in the clear light of morning, seem worth the expense of having to buy a new one (TV, not ref.) The "bump" occurred in the final minutes after another atrocious no-call that basically cost us the game. Rondo claimed he had just lost his balance, but the general view was that he'd lost his temper and the media exploded with the same old song about how immature and volatile he is. Personally, in that game, after that call, I was amazed at his self-control. On the radio show I was listening to, they were conducting an informal poll of whether we should get rid of him and his 'uncontrollable mood swings.' And a man called in. The pitch of his voice was like an outsized big rig barreling through the Ted Williams tunnel at 70mph, taking out half the ceiling and numerous commuter cars in a long sheet metal scream. I could picture him clearly, purple and sputtering, trembling with rage, gesticulating wildly as he roared into the mouthpiece. The gist of his argument, if you can call a barely coherent rant an argument, was that Rondo was disgusting, a disgrace to the team and the city because he couldn't do a simple thing like control his temper. Then he hung up, presumably to either have a heart attack or kill someone. And I wondered, Does that man have any idea of the irony of his ballistic overreaction to Rondo's comparatively innocuous little bump of a ref who frankly (again, I say this as a tree-hugging pacifist who won't even kill a mosquito) had been asking for it? How many of these fans who call into radio shows ever stop to compare their expectations of the team and players to their own behavior and self-control? One of the things that Doc will repeat often to the press is "Hey. They're human." What the team was able to play through last season, all the sudden and life-threatening ailments and accidents (Green, Wilcox, Pietrus,) all the injuries and bad luck and dark forecasts of their season certainly made them seem at times something more than human. But what makes them great, and what makes us, the fan base great, is not an inflated concept of basketball players as superheroes, with stores of superhuman strength but none of the distracting affects of personhood such as emotion or vulnerability. It's not about buying a bouquet of stat sheets, putting them in green and telling them "Win." Its about what we manage to achieve by being human. We have all had our struggles. Harvard may get all the funding, but the School of Hard Knocks is where the people in this city take most pride in having an education. We all know what it is to be down, and to be kicked when you're down, and to have the floor fall out from under you while you're being kicked while you're down. When it happens to our team, or our players, it makes them family. You know my struggle, you know my joys, you know me. And we are an emotional city. Every one of us – admit it - is themselves or knows someone very well who IS that raving nut-job on the radio show. And we all know that that nut-job, after the rage has cooled, will probably go outside and get his leg broken in a heroic attempt to save the life of a kitten. Because THAT is BOSTON. Rage and rudeness and compassion and humor in equal overflowing proportions. This team and its fans are unapologetically human. Think of Cousy's retirement and the "Boston Tear Party," of "BEAT LA," of Red Auerbach, Johnny Most, Bill Russell, Tommy Heinsohn, Larry Bird – I could go on all night. Each of these moments and individuals are disarmingly human – in the best sense of the word - and disarmingly great. And maybe it's our willingness to allow our players to be human (usually) that enables them to achieve the standard of greatness that is the hallmark of this franchise. They say a mob has many heads but no brain. The green mob of Celtics fans has many heads but just one enormous, unwieldy heart. That heart rages and rants and cheers and sobs but supports its team unconditionally. Heart is what makes a good player great; and heart is what makes a great player, team, and franchise legendary. Comments: Welcome to our newest writer at Celtics Green! Great article, Ruby! One thing that has always set Celtics teams apart is their heart. And you are right, Celtics fans have a lot of heart too :) # posted by FLCeltsFan : 7:37 AM Welcome, Ruby! Good stuff!!! # posted by Lex : 8:58 AM Ruby, delighted to see FLCeltsFan found a write to her liking to help shoulder the load. Nice insight to the fan base. Going ballistic, waxing hyperbolic, and disproportionate overreaction is why they call them fan(atic)s. Some attribute an increase in violence to sports fans rage, but I wonder if the reverse might not be true. Blowing off that steam raging at the tv, refs, sports writers, or fellow bloggers might just release enough pressure to avoid many more explosions. # posted by bballee : 12:31 PM Great post! Might have to re-post this a couple times each season when a player falls out of favor with the fanbase. Reminding fans of NBA players' humanity is always a good thing. Thank you! # posted by Didi Jenning : 12:56 PM Thanks for the great feedback and the welcome!

The Great Awakening changed the wizarding world for the better. Muggleborn children are raised within the walls of a facility designed for their magical upbringing. Witches and wizards now live together in healthy, thriving communities. Muggles, after years of vicious attacks on witches and wizards, have once again forgotten about the existence of magic. All is as it should be. But as the Red Plague ravishes the muggle world, some can�t be content with this utopia. Blood traitors are exiled, purebloods hold all of the positions of power, and The Rouge maintains control over the Ministry of Magic. Can La Blanche spark a revolution, or will all those who speak out against The Rouge be extinguished? Only time will tell in this Golden Reign.

Our homes are always safe and secure for our loved ones...right? As much as we'd like to believe this statement to be true, a good percent of the time, it isn't. How do you prevent fatal household accidents?
With so much commercialization of the holidays surrounding our kids, the season's real purpose can be easily lost in the shuffle. Here's how you can push that aside and show your tot the real "reason for the season."
Toddlers have a short attention span and a limited ability to understand a time line -- especially yours! Probably you've replied to the question "Is it Christmas yet?" at least 42 times since breakfast. Let this simple holiday countdown calendar answer for you!
The key to successful toddler gift giving is presenting something that the child will not only be "wowed" by, but the parents appreciate as well!
Are you the parent of an adorable, but adamant toddler who's bent on asserting independence? You're more interesting in cooperation, respect and self-esteem. You can both get what you want when you learn ways to keep the peace with a 2-year-old.
To reduce the likelihood that you will have an accident while you're driving with a toddler or preschooler on board, try to keep these important safety points in mind.
Are you looking for Halloween crafts for your toddler? From pumpkins to bats, with a bit of adult supervisions, even a small child can create cool but spooky stuff with these ideas!
It's not just grownups who risk developing obesity-related health problems if they spend too little time sleeping and too much time watching TV.
Here are some of the key findings from a recent report on what factors in the home or community environment are most likely to contribute to school readiness at age five.
With toddlerhood, your baby turned into a miniature explorer, into trouble almost as fast as you can eliminate hazards. Here's how you can make your home safe for your curious and mobile child.
Wasn't selling expired baby food always illegal? Apparently not. Until the dawning of 2012, it was apparently legal for retailers to sell expired baby food and baby formula in California.
Your child has been sick. You need to be at work. When can he return to daycare? Do siblings need to stay home? Since illnesses are transmitted differently, answer can vary. Find out for these common diseases (listed in alphabetical order:
It takes a lot to shock police these days. It's rare, if not unheard of to be faced with what Chicago police found on one particular routine traffic stop.
Hot summer weather getting to the kids? Looking for a way to cool everyone off? How about our top ten activities to lower the temperature and raise the fun factor?
On the premiere of "Kourtney & Kim Take New York" Sunday night, it was revealed that Kourtney co-sleeps with her toddler, Mason (who is just adorable), while her baby daddy sleeps in another room. This is not so unusual, nor, do we think, such a crazy thing.
Your toddler hasn't shown any interest in playing with other children. In fact, you've noticed that he'd rather play quietly with his blocks in the corner than join in any group activities. Should you be concerned? Read on for the answer and a list of important milestones to watch for on the play front.
It's time for summer fun! Before your kids toddle off, be well-versed in these summer safety tips.
You've explained to your toddler that they're too big for a pacifier and why. They don't care about any of that stuff. They want their soother and they want it now.
What can you do to peacefully get your kids to go to bed at their scheduled bedtime? And what can you do to help them stay tucked in bed?

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Wow, a rant about beer consumption. I'm fifty years old and believe that at this point in my life I can have a beer or two when I want one. And I am healthy and definitely not a drunk or binge drinker. Lighten up.
I really don't want to hear about getting old and my "different needs". That's not for me. I just go out and play disc golf and enjoy myself. That is what life is all about. Sure I have a few more aches and pains than when I was younger but who cares? In fact I'm going out to play a round today in the sixty degree weather we are having today. And I won't be drinking any beer until tonight when I get done with work and polish off my last Anchor Steam before bed.
There comes a point when you realize that you cannot master something...I'm there with respect to a RHBH. But, acknowledging that and tailoring my game to my RHFH has paid off. I'm pretty happy with my putter, I've actually learned to throw it in a variety of different ways. I throw heavy discs, but don't feel any pain since I changed my style.
Ya know, I think people missed the whole point of my post....sigh. No matter, I always appreciate feedback.
I'm not sure if we missed the point.Feedback was given to what we all know what is out there to throw.Chuck mentioned the PDGA site for senior dg'ers,150 and weights have been advised and the answer might be hidden beneath all responses...NO.The best answer to all this might still be Chuck's response,PDGA senior site.
This sport grew from those babyboomers that helped Wham-O,Ed & Fred to what disc golf is today.I've thrown a lid,frisbee,disc since late 50's.Off and on for the fun and serious competition.Take what you learn,see,read and questions asked to encompass this into our/your senior filled days.Jusy my 2 cents.See ya on the fairway youngster;>}.Enjoy,have FUN and don't take this too seriously.from one BB to another BB.

Rebirth Of Detroit is a posthumous project from the late, great Jay Dilla; arguably the finest producer out of detroit, and top 5 in the game, period.
It's set to feature the likes of Phat Kat, Guilty Simpson, Danny Brown, plus more, over 25 unreleased tracks, and unheard beats from Dilla's vault.
"This will bring together artists that have drifted away from one another and haven't been able to work with each other lately. It's a healing process for the city. For individuals, it's going to bring back the love and the passion for the music and for what hip-hop has to offer." - MaDukes
Rebirth drops on the 12th of June 2012

DOBSON — The Surry County Schools Board of Education meeting Monday at Central Middle School was dominated by talk of educational partnerships and the impact of schools on students.
The board expressed appreciation of the support of Dr. Mack McCary and Dr. Dana Diesel Wallace of the North Carolina New Schools Project for their support of county schools. In the fall of 2004, county school Superintendent Dr. Ashley Hinson pursued a planning grant for a new high school programming concept.
This planning grant was for a collaborative high school program in conjunction with Mount Airy City Schools and Elkin City Schools which became the foundation for what was to become Surry Early College High School of Design and the partnership between county schools and the new schools project.
The new schools project began in 2003 by the office of the governor and the North Carolina Education Cabinet with initial support from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Its goal was to develop and support innovative secondary schools which seek to graduate all students ready for college, careers and life.
The project's Dr. Tony Habit directed the opening of the Surry Early College in August of 2006 with only ninth grade. School Assistant Superintendent of Instructional Services Dr. Terri Mosley said the local early college has grown to become one of the largest early college programs in the state.
"Throughout the existence of the program, support, principal and teacher coaching and innovative practices have been provided and encouraged by the New Schools Project," said Mosley. She said the school has been recognized for a 100 percent graduation rate for students remaining in the program with 114 graduating with high school diplomas and college credit hours with 58 students receiving one or more associate degrees from Surry Community College.
Early College senior Tyler Hill spoke to the board about what the school meant to him.
"I'm honored to be here," said Hill. "This is an emotional speech for me. I was ecstatic about getting a chance to go and make friends at the early college. I didn't have that many friends in middle school."
Hill told the board about how he let new found social connections and video games distract him from studying. He explained how his grades suffered and the impact of getting a notice he and his mother would have to attend a hearing about him being expelled from the school.
"I remember telling them at the meeting that I didn't deserve to be at the school," recounted Hill, who also spoke of how school officials as well as Hinson gave him a semester to turn himself around. He said the following semester he made straight As.
"After that semester, I was a different person," said Hill as he choked back tears. "I want to thank them (the officials who gave him one more chance) for turning my life around."
Early College Principal Celia Hodges told the board Hill, who had earned only two class credits before the hearing about dismissal, now has 47 credits.
"That next semester was huge for Tyler," said Hodges. "It was a lot of work. He changed his life. Not giving up on students is a motto we have (at the early college). He is now on track for an associate's degree."
Early College student Jamie Hernandez told the board attending high school and earning college credits made her the first in her family to do so.
"This has made my parents very proud," said Hernandez. "A month ago my classes in public speaking helped me get my first job at Chick-fil-A. Thank you for the opportunity and just giving me the help. Thank you for supporting us."
Mosley explained the new schools project is partnering with rural school districts to implement early college high school strategies into traditional high schools. North Surry High School was one such school included in this program. Surry Central High School also has been selected to participate in a regional Science Technology Engineer Math school project.
"You could not have a more moving explanation of what we're trying to do than what these students have told us tonight," said McCary. "These students have demonstrated how much it meant to them. I think it's remarkable that you (the board) are looking at some of these smaller initiatives to broaden them to more students. You have been our partner from the beginning. Your willingness to take calculated, not foolish risks is so important. We are thrilled to be partners with you."
The Early College also was recognized by the board for being one of 28 schools in the state having a 100 percent graduation rate. Hodges, Surry Community College liaison Melissa Atkinson and teacher Andrew Chilton were present to receive the award from State Superintendent Dr. June Atkinson.
In other business, the board voted to send to the department of education a statement detailing the adverse impact proposed growth by Millennium Charter Academy to expand its grades to include high school for the 2013-2014 school year.
If the academy receives a "yes" from the state board in February 2013, the school would open the ninth grade in the fall of 2014 and would add an additional grade each year afterwards for the remaining three years. In its first year, the school hopes to take on around 40 to 60 students and two to four staff members plus a college counselor. Higher than anticipated enrollment numbers would require more staff.
The proposed expansion would be funded from the academy's own operational budget or through a combination of private and government sources other than county funds.
Board Chairman Earlie Coe, who also serves on the state board, explained the proposal could eventually draw as many as 200 students from the district and an impact statement was needed to "draw a line in the sand."
"I just want to let it be known from the beginning that stating what kind of students you want from the beginning is contrary to the public schools," commented Vice Chairman Brian Gates.
"How would it sound to Surry County as a board if we were to say is all we are concerned in serving is those that are college bound," added Hinson.
The board appeared to be reacting to published reports in which MCA Headmaster Kirby McCrary had indicated one expectation of the high school would be all students apply for college.

Motor analysis
Our team has the possibility to detect a variety of electrical and mechanical faults on induction motors through analysis of current, electromagnetic flux, temperature and vibration.
Based on statistical data compiled by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), 47% of motor failures are due to electrical faults/failures. The 47% can be further broken down into rotor problems (10%) and winding problems (37%). Mechanical faults may sometimes have root causes that are electrical in nature.
Winding defects can occur due to insulation age, contamination, power surges, thermal overload, damaged wire/materials, vibration, and other causes. They begin as energy crossing an insulation fault (such as moisture or contamination), which isolates at least one turn. This generates additional stress and heat across the defect, which progresses until an arc is drawn and the winding fails. |
Our team uses Alltest equipment to find such defects. Click here to find out more about this device.

Barack Obama has sometimes been fond of branding his Republican foes "hostage-takers," but officials in his administration have found a new hostage in their negotiations over raising the debt ceiling: the U.S. Constitution. The president's advisers and several "unbiased" media outlets are suggesting if Congress refuses to raise the debt ceiling, Barack Obama can force the nation to continue borrowing money.
