Before they say the norms I will go over the Success Criteria. A Success Criteria are things they need to know or do in order to be successful at the activity. I tell the students if they have been with me last or longer they have to say the norms and do the motions. If they are new to our school, they have to just do the motions, but can say the words if they like. I do have a PowerPoint running that has the words to all the norms.
I will go over the Success Criteria. I will have them "Mirror" (say what I say, do what I do) to review the definition of a steady beat. I will model how to say your name to a steady beat. I tell the students that we need to try to keep the beat moving and try not to have any hesitations.
In this week's lesson students will sing the song without the teacher. I don't even do the motions with them. I have them sing it a couple of times. Then I open it up for solo singing. I only have those who want to sing a solo take a turn.
Last week students worked on learning all about four sixteenth notes. In this week's lesson we review what we learned last week. I call student up to the board to drag the correct answer to the correct line. I call one student per problem. The first one the students had to give the real name of the note, the second on they had to give the syllable sound, the third one they had to identify it as stick notation, the rest of them they had to identify which note part the purple arrow was pointing to.
Last week we worked on notating the song. To make sure they have and really understand, I had them do it again. I just called on different students.
I will call on students to help tell me what notes will go above the words. They will do one whole line.
Once we finish notating the song. We will read it using rhythm syllables.
To end the lesson I use Exit Tickets. I make them on half sheets and then I put them in half page sheet protectors (can get them on amazon). Students use a dry erase marker. As they get their material and find a spot I play some music. In this exit ticket they have to fill in the rhythm. When they are done they come and see me and I will take a picture of their work. Then the students erase their answers and lines up. I make a folder for each class and I put their photos into the correct class folder. To grade them I just view them as a gallery and score their grade into the ipad app iDoceo.

This leaflet is for people who have been diagnosed with mild-to-moderate CKD (stage 1, 2 or 3 CKD). A separate leaflet in this series, called 'Chronic Kidney Disease', is more appropriate if you have more severe CKD (stage 4 or 5 CKD).
Understanding the kidneys and urine
The two kidneys lie to the sides of the upper abdomen (the loins), behind the intestines, and either side of the spine. Each kidney is about the size of a large orange, but bean-shaped.
A large artery – the renal artery – takes blood to each kidney. The artery divides into many tiny blood vessels (capillaries) throughout the kidney. In the outer part of the kidneys tiny blood vessels cluster together to form structures called glomeruli.
Each glomerulus is like a filter. The structure of the glomerulus allows waste products and some water and salt to pass from the blood into a tiny channel called a tubule. The liquid that remains at the end of each tubule is called urine. The urine then passes down a tube called a ureter which goes from each kidney to the bladder. Urine is stored in the bladder until it is passed out when we go to the toilet.
The main functions of the kidneys are to:
- Filter out waste products from the bloodstream, to be passed out in the urine.
- Help control blood pressure – partly by the amount of water passed out of the body as urine and partly by making hormones which are involved in blood pressure control.
- Make a hormone called erythropoietin (epo) which stimulates the bone marrow to make red blood cells. This is needed to prevent anaemia.
- Help keep various salts and chemicals in the blood at the right level.
What is chronic kidney disease?
CKD means that your kidneys are affected in some way. As a result, your kidneys may not work as well as they used to. A whole range of conditions can cause CKD (see later).
Some terms explained:
- Chronic means ongoing (persistent or long-term). It does not mean severe as some people think. You can have a mild chronic disease. Many people have mild CKD.
- Renal means relating to the kidney.
- Chronic renal failure is a term that is sometimes used but means much the same as CKD. CKD is a better term, as the word failure implies that the kidneys have totally stopped working. In most cases of CKD this is not so. In most people who have CKD there is only a mild or moderate reduction in kidney function which usually does not cause symptoms, and the kidneys have not failed.
How is chronic kidney disease diagnosed?
A simple blood test can estimate the volume of blood that is filtered by the glomeruli in your kidneys over a given period of time. This test is called the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). A normal eGFR is 90 ml/min/1.73 m or more. If some of the glomeruli (the tiny filters in the kidneys) do not filter as much as normal, then the kidney is said to have reduced or impaired kidney function.
CKD is diagnosed by the eGFR and other factors, and is divided into five stages:
|Stage of Chronic Kidney Disease
|eGFR ml/min/1.73 m
|Stage 1: the eGFR shows normal kidney function but you are already known to have some kidney damage or disease. For example, you may have some protein or blood in your urine, an abnormality of your kidney, kidney inflammation, etc.
|90 or more
|Stage 2: mildly reduced kidney function AND you are already known to have some kidney damage or disease. People with an eGFR of 60-89 without any known kidney damage or disease are not considered to have CKD.
|60 to 89
|Stage 3: moderately reduced kidney function. (With or without a known kidney disease. For example, an elderly person with ageing kidneys may have reduced kidney function without a specific known kidney disease.)
|45 to 59 (3A)
30 to 44 (3B)
|Stage 4: severely reduced kidney function. (With or without known kidney disease.)
|15 to 29
|Stage 5: very severely reduced kidney function. This is sometimes called end-stage kidney failure or established renal failure.
|Less than 15
Who has the estimated glomerular filtration rate test?
The eGFR blood test is commonly done as a routine part of monitoring people with kidney diseases or with conditions that can affect the kidneys, such as diabetes or high blood pressure. It is also often done as a routine test in many medical situations. If you are found to have CKD then the eGFR test is usually done at regular intervals to monitor your kidney function.
How common is chronic kidney disease?
About 1 in 10 people has some degree of CKD. It can develop at any age and various conditions can lead to CKD. It becomes more common with increasing age and is more common in women.
Although about half of people aged 75 or more have some degree of CKD, most of these people do not actually have diseases of their kidneys; they have normal ageing of their kidneys. Most cases of CKD are mild or moderate (stages 1-3).
What causes chronic kidney disease?
A number of conditions can cause permanent damage to the kidneys and/or affect the function of the kidneys and lead to CKD. Three common causes in the UK, which probably account for about 3 in 4 cases of CKD in adults, are:
- Diabetes. Diabetic kidney disease is a common complication of diabetes.
- High blood pressure. Untreated or poorly treated high blood pressure is a major cause of CKD. However, CKD can also cause high blood pressure, as the kidney has a role in blood pressure regulation. About nine out of ten people with CKD stages 3-5 have high blood pressure.
- Ageing kidneys. There appears to be an age-related decline in kidney function. About half of people aged 75 or more have some degree of CKD. In most of these cases the CKD does not progress beyond the moderate stage unless other problems of the kidney develop, such as diabetic kidney disease.
There are various other less common conditions that can cause CKD.
What are the symptoms of chronic kidney disease?
You are unlikely to feel unwell or have symptoms with mild-to-moderate CKD – that is, stages 1 to 3. (However, there may be symptoms of an underlying condition such as kidney pain with certain kidney conditions.) CKD is usually diagnosed by the eGFR test before any symptoms develop. (If the kidney function declines to stages 4 or 5 then various symptoms and problems may develop.)
Do I need any further tests?
As mentioned, the eGFR test is done to diagnose and monitor the progression and severity of CKD. For example, it should be done routinely at least once a year in people with stages 1 and 2 CKD, and more frequently if you have stage 3, 4 or 5 CKD.
You are likely to have routine urine dipstick tests from time to time to check for blood and protein in the urine. Also, blood tests may be done from time to time to check on your blood level of chemicals such as sodium, potassium, calcium and phosphate. The need for other tests then depends on various factors and your doctor will advise. For example:
- An ultrasound scan of the kidneys or a kidney biopsy may be advised if certain kidney conditions are suspected. For example, if you have a lot of protein or blood in your urine, if you have pain that seems to be coming from a kidney, etc.
- A scan or a biopsy is not needed in most cases. This is because most people with CKD have a known cause for the impaired kidney function, such as a complication of diabetes, high blood pressure or ageing.
- If the CKD progresses to stage 3 or worse then various other tests may be done.
What is the treatment for mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease?
Treatment for most cases is usually done by GPs. In many people, treatment at early stages of CKD can prevent or slow down progression through to eventual kidney failure. (Your GP may refer you to a specialist if you develop stage 4 or 5 CKD, or at any stage if you have problems or symptoms that require specialist investigation.)
The main aims of treatment for mild-to-moderate CKD include:
- If possible, treat any underlying kidney condition.
- Prevent or slow down the progression of CKD.
- Reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Treating any underlying kidney condition
There are various conditions that can cause CKD. For some of these there may be specific treatments for that particular condition. For example, good glucose control for people with diabetes, blood pressure control for people with high blood pressure, etc.
Preventing or slowing down the progression of chronic kidney disease
Once CKD has developed, in many cases it tends gradually to become worse over months or years. This can occur even if an underlying cause has been treated. You should have checks every now and then by your GP or practice nurse to monitor your kidney function (eGFR). They will also give you treatment and advice on how to prevent or slow down the progression of CKD. This usually includes:
- Blood pressure control. The most important treatment to prevent or delay the progression of CKD, whatever the underlying cause, is to keep your blood pressure well-controlled. Most people with CKD will require medication to control their blood pressure. Your doctor will give you a target blood pressure level to aim for. This is usually below 130/80 mm Hg, and even lower in some circumstances.
- Review of your medication. Certain medicines can affect the kidneys as a side-effect which can make CKD worse. For example, if you have CKD you should not take anti-inflammatory medicines unless advised to by a doctor. You may also need to adjust the dose of certain medicines that you may take if your CKD gets worse.
Reducing the risk of developing cardiovascular disease
People with CKD have an increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. People with CKD are actually twenty times more likely to die from cardiovascular-related problems than from kidney failure. This is why reducing any other cardiovascular risk factors is so important. See separate leaflet called 'Preventing Cardiovascular Diseases' for details. Briefly, this typically includes:
- Good control of blood pressure (and blood glucose level if you have diabetes).
- Medication to lower your cholesterol level – needed in many cases.
- Where relevant, to tackle lifestyle risk factors. This means to:
- Stop smoking if you smoke.
- Eat a healthy diet which includes a low salt intake.
- Keep your weight and waist in check.
- Take regular physical activity.
- Cut back if you drink a lot of alcohol.
If you have high levels of protein in your urine then you may be advised to take medication even if your blood pressure is normal. A type of medication called an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor (for example, captopril, enalapril, ramipril, lisinopril) has been shown to be beneficial for some people with CKD, as it reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and can prevent further worsening of the function of your kidneys.
Note: people with stage 3 CKD or worse should also be immunised against influenza each year, and have a one-off immunisation against pneumococcus.
What is the outlook (prognosis)?
Stages 1-3 CKD (mild-to-moderate) are common, with most cases occurring in older people. It tends to get gradually worse over months or years. However, the rate of progression varies from person to person, and often depends on the severity of any underlying condition. For example, some kidney conditions may cause your kidney function to get worse relatively quickly. However, in most cases, CKD progresses only very slowly. Only a small number of people with CKD progresses to end-stage kidney failure (stage 5 CKD) that requires kidney dialysis or kidney transplant.
For many people with CKD there is a much higher risk of developing serious cardiovascular disease than of developing end-stage kidney failure.
In short …
- attention to blood pressure control
- careful review of medications to make sure that the only ones used are those which put least strain on kidneys
- tackling factors that reduce your risk of developing cardiovascular diseases
can make a big difference to your outlook.

Plant Ecology: Origins, Processes, Consequences
by Paul A. Keddy /
2017 / English / PDF
127.2 MB Download
Presenting a global and interdisciplinary approach to plant ecology, this much-awaited new edition of the book Plants and Vegetation integrates classical themes with the latest ideas, models, and data. Keddy draws on extensive teaching experience to bring the field to life, guiding students through essential concepts with numerous real-world examples and full-colour illustrations throughout. The chapters begin by presenting the wider picture of the origin of plants and their impact on the Earth, before exploring the search for global patterns in plants and vegetation. Chapters on resources, stress, competition, herbivory, and mutualism explore causation, and a concluding chapter on conservation addresses the concern that one-third of all plant species are at risk of extinction. The scope of this edition is broadened further by a new chapter on population ecology, along with extensive examples including South African deserts, the Guyana Highlands of South America, Himalayan forests and arctic alpine environments.

Smartphones have moved ahead of laptops for the first time ever in the UK as the preferred devices for connecting online, according to a report by Ofcom (August 2015). In 2014, 33% of Britons opted for smartphones as the device of choice ahead of 30% who preferred laptops. This has been described as a "landmark moment".
Having a website that is mobile-friendly has never been more crucial to your online success.
These phrases all have a similar meaning and refer to the way in which a website is coded to restructure and reorganise itself based upon the type of device someone uses to view the site - desktop, tablet or mobile phone.
If you have a non-responsive website, your site will always appear exactly the same across all devices, so the content that looks great on a desktop will be hard to view and navigate on a smaller mobile phone screen.
According to the latest Ofcom figures, there are over 83 million mobile phone users in the UK and according to research conducted by TNS on behalf of Google in 2014, 32% of people in the UK make a monthly purchase on their smartphone, with the average annual online shopping spend per person totalling £1,083.
Without a responsive website, you could be making it harder for your website visitors to see what you're offering, which could potentially mean losing customers to a competitor. The number of people using mobile and tablet devices to access the internet is constantly increasing, so if over 20% of your website visitors are viewing your website using mobile phones or tablets then you need to consider making your website responsive.
All our new website developments use a front-end framework that is specifically designed for responsive website structuring to enhance the user experience. This means that your website will be designed and built with all devices in mind, ensuring that it looks and functions correctly whether you're navigating it at work on your PC, on your iPad whilst at home or using your mobile phone whilst on the move.

Strategy Execution is an emerging category of skills and competencies related to the successful management of complex, and often transformational business change initiatives. Successful delivery of these initiatives requires focus across a number areas – in particular:
The Mozaic Business Change Practice focusses on Strategic Execution. Whether it be technology/application enabled (historically referred to as Systems Integration) or non-technology enabled. Our work often involves the design of a Target Operating Model (TOM) which documents the future state organisational structures, roles and responsibilities, processes and technology. By focusing on the TOM helps us to ensure that the program and its deliverables are aligned to the Program's Strategic Intent.
Embarking on Transformational business change is a risky undertaking. Mozaic mitigates this risk through our skilled practitioners; our decades of large program experience and know-how; and our robust organizational change and program delivery and governance frameworks.

Sandbags are frequently used to prevent homes from flooding. Although they may not prevent all water from reaching a home, sandbags will help divert the water. Sandbags are generally made out of burlap or plastic. They are filled half to two-thirds full. If flooding is a threat in your area, your city maintenance yard will most likely provide sandbags for free. Using the right supplies and properly placing your sandbags will help prevent flooding. Follow these steps to make sure your home is protected as much as possible against flooding.
Step 1
Lay plastic tarps in front of any doors or low windows and the side of the house that is threatened by flood waters.
Step 2
Bring plastic tarps as high up on the house as you expect flood waters to reach. You can attach the plastic to the house with screws. You must put up plastic tarps where you want to prevent flooding; sandbags alone are not sufficient.
Step 3
Place the first row of sandbags tightly against each other and touching the exterior of the house. The sandbags should lie parallel to the flow of the potential flood waters. If your sandbags are tied, flatten the tied end. If your sandbags are not tied, tuck the flap under the sandbag. The opening of the sandbags should face against the water flow.
Step 4
Place the second row of sandbags on top of the first. The first bag should start about halfway across the first sandbag in the bottom row, so each row of sandbags is staggered. Never put sandbags around the whole exterior of your house; this could trap flood waters between your house and the sandbags.
Step 5
Step on each sandbag to push them tightly into place and help seal any cracks.
Step 6
Place sandbags in a pyramid shape to prevent flooding at higher levels, if necessary. To do this, determine how many layers high you want your pyramid. Make sure there is a similar number of sandbags across the bottom layer of the pyramid as the number of layers you want. For example, if you want the pyramid five sandbags high, place five sandbags across the bottom.

China may allow car dealers to sell multiple brands
[BEIJING] China is considering broadly easing producer-imposed restrictions on auto dealers, potentially allowing a single dealership to sell rival brands, a move that could boost car retailers' competitiveness as the country's economy slows.
Auto manufacturers could no longer forbid their dealers from selling cars from rival brands, according to the draft rules the Ministry of Commerce posted on its website on Wednesday for public comment.
Under the proposed rules, dealers would have to tell their customers if they haven't obtained permission from manufacturers to sell a certain brand of cars.
The new rules would offer dealers increased protections and flexibility to operate at a time when China's slowing economy has forced many dealers to discount heavily, even to the point of selling new cars at a loss, to stay competitive. "The dealers are the first to cry," a manager for one of Volkswagen AG's China ventures told Reuters last year when sales were declining.
The Chinese economy continues to falter with a private survey showing on Monday that factory activity shrank for a 10th straight month in December.
The draft rules would protect dealers from being dumped by manufacturers, who would be required to authorise dealers for at least five years at first and for three-year periods thereafter.
Manufacturers also wouldn't be able to set fixed sales quotas or limits on dealer inventory, unless both sides agree in the authorisation agreement. Dealers can also sell cars and parts to each other.
The rules also extend additional protections to consumers, forbidding force selling of insurance, selling above marked prices or charging excess fees.
China's auto market is expected to have grown 3 per cent in 2015, with the chief of China's automakers association forecasting 5-7 per cent growth for 2016.

text: It's been a while since we've shown you anything with Sanyo's Eneloop label, but this new product bearing the wireless charging tech will sound like good news for Wiimote users fed up of awkward battery/charging solutions. Sanyo have teamed up with Nintendo to make the Eneloop Wiimote charger: and it's contactless. You simply replace the standard Wiimote back, drop it into the stand (which even accommodates silicon covers) when you're done playing, and it'll refill the batteries in 220 minutes. The stands can daisy chain off one power brick, so up to four Wiimotes can get juice at the same time. But there's a problem: apparently it's Japan only for now. Though I can't imagine it'll always be: it's just way too useful. [Akihabaranews]

The 'ugly pencil sketch' art trend of Nigerian celebrities seems like its here to stay. Before now, sharing a photo of an ugly and horrible pencil sketch or photo of a Nigerian Celebrity will result in that celebrity coming for the artistes. It has happened in the past as most Nigerian celebrities are known to be heavy clapback kings and queens on social media.These days, its different. Social media 'artists' now boldly draw and post these humorous sketches of celebrities and they even go as far as tagging them to the post. They take existing photos of these celebrities and create very funny looking sketches with little or no semblance to the main photograph. Popular among these social media artists is Zed Amu with the Instagram handle @naijacelebrityartist and @_realpic.
However, it would seem that most the celebrities are actually pleased with these drawings and see the sense in the humor in this trending art. This is probably because the artists write lovely things about the celebrities to go with the sketches or our celebrities are not as angry as they used to be anymore. Some even go on to repost them via their social media handles to help it go more viral. They've probably realized that it's never that serious and perhaps agree that art is subjective.
What's your view about this trend?

[KIDS] Microscopes: Seeing the Small
People really like tiny things. I mean, small puppies, kittens, baby birds and even baby reptiles are cute, right? Many kids enjoy playing with dolls, which are tiny people, and dollhouses, which are tiny houses with tiny furniture. Small cars are often "cooler" than big, clunky ones. Miniature, or very small, art is often very valuable.
Seeing tiny things is very important to science. For example, the germs that cause diseases are usually too small for the human eye to see. If people had not been curious about searching for tiny things, we would never have learned so much about disease! Because the human eye isn't strong enough, we need to use a device called a "microscope" to look at tiny things like germs.
The idea of using a tool to see better has been around for a while. In the 14th century, Europeans started making lenses to correct people's eyesight. A lens is simply a piece of glass that can bend light to make an image of an object. In the 16th century, Dutch lens makers began making better and better lenses. Soon, lens makers began putting lenses together to make the first microscope. The word itself was born in 1625, in a book by two Italian scholars. They had been using microscopes to study bees.
Since then, technology has allowed us make even more complex microscopes. Some of them don't use light at all! Let's take a look at the basic kinds of microscope.
Light Microscope: Light microscopes are the most common type. They can be simple, with a single lens, or compound. Compound light microscopes use mirrors and lenses to reflect and refract (which mean "change the direction of") light and make objects look bigger. You've probably seen this type of microscope in your school lab. They can make things look up to around 1000 times bigger. We say they "magnify images up to 1000x."
Electron Microscope: These are advanced microscopes are weird in that they don't use light at all! Instead of beams of light, their lenses and magnets work with beams of electrons and other particles that carry electric charge. They tend to create colorless images. Electron microscopes can be used to find extremely tiny details, like the insides of bacteria. A modern one can be 4000 more powerful than a light microscope, and 4 million times better than the human eye!
Scanning Probe Microscope: Scanning probe microscopes are even weirder. Instead of using a lens, these microscopes have a very small, very sharp needle called a "probe". The probe comes very close to objects to measure the atoms on the surface. They can make images of things that are around the size of atoms, on the scale of ten billionth of a meter.
So there you go. Using light, electrons, and even tiny needles that map surfaces, scientists can see parts of the world around them that their ordinary, human eyes would never allow. Yay for microscopes!

Overall, this was good study for learning basic functions in Excel. However, the tutorials and practice quizzes do not adequately prepare you for the actual graded Quiz at the end of each week that counts toward your final grade. You will definitely have to be either a quick study, who can pull a lot of inference and practical application out of minimal technical guidance, or know how to Google the steps that were glossed over in the videos or for which no practice question was provided. Also, side note, if you have a Mac, you will be somewhat flustered at times, and you will also need an add-on app for the Histogram portion.

The concepts in this introductory course are very important and have improved my confidence with Excel. The professor did a good job of explaining why you would use the different functions and techniques. However, it would have been helpful if there were slides available from this course to help with reviewing. I also had a gripe with the consistent appearance of material on quizzes that was not covered in the lectures. I actually had to look up some of the concepts independently, because they were either not in the course or were introduced superficially.
por Jens H J•
Jan 24, 2018
Good explanations from the professor, however uses older version of excel in videos than I do. Also, importing the .txt files was quite the challenge as I do not use the same number denominator and date format as in the US. After a bit of struggling, I got it to work, but wasted time = not excellent reviews. Did not learn much new, only a few tips.

I thought that some instructions were confusing, or at least I thought I understood them, but didn't ever get the right answer and then felt I was wasting my time. It's always odd to take these classes and not get examples of the 'right' answer or the ideal way to get to an answer.

Practicing Muslim men and women are struggling to find suitable partners in U.K.
Why Practicing Muslim men and women are are having a hard time finding someone to spend the rest of their life with.
The Big question is why?
Marriage is very important for Muslims, and Muslims are generally very family oriented.
This ideal can be traced in the Hadith, "Marriage is half of religion."
The traditional structure for finding a partner is falling apart as it is no longer accepted by younger Muslims.
However, this structure has not been replaced by something else,
And now many young educated European Muslims find themselves in a situation where they cannot get married at all.
Different reasons seem to be holding each one back respectively, but the end result of sadness and confusion is usually the same?
So many family's and friends are looking and looking but cannot find anyone.
For many Muslims, the process of finding a spouse can sometimes prove challenging and frustrating.
During this time not only do brothers and sisters have to wrestle with their own personal quirks,
But they also have expectations about the potential mates they are considering.
.Finding a spouse is difficult for educated career-focused Muslim men and women who may not have
Had many contacts with other Muslims but now is a difficulty for most in the UK as many men are looking to find wives overseas.Why?
Main problem...
The main problem is the lack of service in the Masjid regarding marriage.
A simple idea would be to have a box where people looking to get married can post their contact details
And a description about themselves along with brief details on what sort of spouse they are looking for/want to avoid.
Filling out a guided form may even be a better idea.
There is a problem with the system - there are no links in the community,
The Masjid doesn't have any services set up and if they do there aren't enough efforts being exerted.
Most secure way to find someone to marry was to consult friends in a sort of personal networking,
A method considered acceptable for women as well.
In this networking, other married couples play a key role, as they could transmit information across gender barriers, so to speak.
This kind of networking also worked in Islamic organizations.
What the Mosque should offer:
The mosque should provide an introduction service for Muslims of all ages and ethnic backgrounds.
Clients should be able to find their ideal partner via the mosque's Marriage Bureau.
Volunteers using a database of registered prospective partners and initiated meetings.
The mosque should also provide marriage registration services cementing partnerships according to Islamic and civil matrimony.
The mosque should be linked with the Registrar of marriages for conducting legally recognized civil Muslim marriages and issues certificates on behalf of the Registrar.
Mosque should have a Muslim Marriage Events Day
Mosque should also arrange Muslim Marriage Events, at least one in a month.
These events can be to be very effective and quick way of finding suitable marriage partners.
i.e . . . . Individuals normally come with their family members or "Mehrams" and have one to one meeting with the prospects.
Additionally, university Islamic societies could also organize matchmaking in this way
Or set up a forum on their website which is moderated.
Each person could be identified, for security purposes, by their student ID card number
And they could look through profiles of those available for marriage.
Men as well as Women are sitting around waiting on parents or not knowing where to go.
If the ones who are married already could help would be nice but everyone's busy.
There are definitely a lot of good people out there,
Just got to find a system that will help people connect and spread info about those who are searching.
There are many different ways of finding a spouse.
Many people prefer to go through the recommendations of family members.
However, if your family is unable to help in this process, then you are perfectly entitled to take your own initiative.
1. Ask your married friends if their husbands know of any single brothers.
Make sure you let your friends know what you are looking for in a spouse.
2. It is also fine to meet someone through school or work
Or a community gathers as long as the parameters of modest behavior are observed.
If you meet someone you would like to discuss marriage with, just arrange for the brother to meet your Wali or family.
3. There are several online matrimonial sites where you can look for potential suitors.
I can't vouch for each and every website.
A note of caution about online matrimonial: The nature of cyberspace lends itself to anonymity.
It's very easy for people to misrepresent themselves online.
Trust your instincts. If you feel that something's not right with someone,
Then don't pursue discussions with them.
Never give out your personal information.
Once you feel that someone has potential, get that person in touch with your Wali or family.
Make sure that your Wali or family thoroughly checks this person out before you proceed with the first meeting.
And always insist that the potential suitor provide references.
This advice applies to whoever you meet, whether it's through a website or at school or work or anything else.
As to methods of communication, this depends on what you feel comfortable with.
If you find someone through an online matrimonial, I believe that initial communication will proceed via email.
You may want to correspond with the person through email before you decide to meet.
Once you feel like this person really has potential,
Then it's important to arrange a face-to-face meeting in the presence of your Wali or family members.
It is entirely up to you how often and for how long you meet.
A short meeting where everyone introduces themselves
And establishes common ground may be better than a long meeting at first.
If you both decide that you'd like to meet again, then you can have longer meetings to discuss issues of importance.
Once again, it's important to consider two things:
1. Always meet in the presence of your Wali or family members.
This is for your protection. Your father is your natural Wali, or guardian.
If he doesn't want to take this role, then I would suggest your grandfather, brother, or uncle.
If none are available, then it is imperative that you ask a pious, mature brother from the community to act as your Wali.
Once you find a potential suitor, make sure to direct him to your Wali.
2. If you correspond via email or talk on the phone, make sure that your conversations are reflective of Islamic propriety.
Once you feel attracted to each other and are quite sure you want to marry,
Then I would suggest that you cut down emailing and phone conversations.
This is better for both of you in terms of Adab.
At this point, it is better to have serious meetings in the presence of your chaperone to hash out the final details of the wedding.
Also we should remind ourselves whilst searching
And making efforts that Allah will reward those who seek the good for His pleasure Insh'Allah.
Sabr, Du'a and Tawakkul in Allah; Insh'Allah a way will be created in finding the right one.
As per our knowledge, there is no specific verse or chapter that brings someone love.
But, it is proved in Sunnah that increased supererogatory acts such as prayers, fasting,
And making Hajj and Umra, bring the love of Allah, His angels and other people.
Imam al-Bukhari narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said:
"My slave keeps on coming closer to Me through performing Nafal (praying or doing extra deeds besides what is obligatory) till I love him.
When I love him I become his sense of hearing with which he hears,
And his sense of sight with which he sees,
And his hand with which he grips, and his leg with which he walks;
And if he asks Me, I will give him, and if he asks My protection (Refuge), I will protect him; (i.e. give him My Refuge) ".
It is also narrated in a narration from Abu Hurairah that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said:
"If Allah loves a person, He calls Gabriel saying: 'Allah loves so and so; O Gabriel, love him'. Gabriel would love him,
And then Gabriel would make an announcement among the residents of the Heaven, 'Allah loves so and so,
Therefore, you should love him also'. So, all the residents of the Heavens would love him
And then he is granted the pleasure of the people of the earth".
Every believing woman's wish is to have a good husband.
So asking for such a husband is not prohibited.
It is a kind of blessing; thus a woman can ask for it. Allah mentioned the Du'a of pious people in Qur'an saying:
"And those who say: "Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes,
And make us leaders for the Muttaqoon""[25:74].
Therefore, if a woman wants a good husband, she has to seek him through legal ways in Shariah.
The first place of those ways is seeking refuge with Allah, supplicating Him.
Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {I respond to the invocations of the supplicant
When he calls on Me (without any mediator or intercessor).}[2:186].
He also Says: {and your Lord said: "Invoke Me, [i.e. believe in My Oneness (Islamic Monotheism)] (and ask Me for anything) I will respond to your (invocation).}[40:60].
Supplicating Allah to gain goodness was the practice of Prophets and Messengers.
Prophet Zakariyah (Alayhi Salaam) was an old man and desired to have a child, so he asked Allah supplicating:
"…since my wife is barren. So give me from yourself an heir, "[19:5].
Prophet Younus (Alayhi Salaam) did the same when a big fish swallowed him, he said:
"Laa ilaha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshipped but You (O Allah)], Glorified (and Exalted) are You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers."[21:87].
So, you have to do likewise; make Du'a and ask help from Allah.
Then ask the pious you know to help you search for a good husband.
Surely you will get what you desire, Insha Allah.
Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {…And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him,
He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. … [Qur'an: [65:2, 3].
Know that blessing of Allah can not be obtained except through His obedience.
I don't think this problem will ever come to an end until and unless
We come back to the teachings of our Master the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam)
He commanded the men to look for pious girl.
The Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said: "A woman may be married for four reasons:
Her wealth, her lineage (family status), her beauty or her religious commitment; Choose the one who is religious and you will prosper."
{Sahih Bukhari, Book 62, Hadith Number 27
Her wealth is Iman and Modesty.
Her Linage is Islam
Her Beauty is obedient and loyalty
Her religion is Qur'an and Hadith.
So it is high time, the community takes up this issue.
Pro-active role is needed from parents, Mosque, activists and intellectuals to tackle the issue.
If a conscious effort is made, this issue can be solved.
The Benefactor and Ya Allah, I ask of you (or I seek refuge with You),
By Your Beautiful Names and Your Magnificent/Great Attributes! Ya Allah,
Originator of the heavens and the earth,
The ever living, the Self-subsisting
Lord of Majesty, Bounty and Honor, Look towards us! Look towards us!
Look towards us! Through Your Mercy,
The Most Merciful of the Merciful. Ya Rab of the Worlds.
"Ya Allah, I invoke You with all of Your beautiful Names.
May Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala bless us and keep us steadfast in the path of Righteousness.
Ya Allah, nothing is easy except what you've made easy,
If you wish you can make the difficult easy.
"My Lord! Truly, I am in need of whatever good that You bestow on me!''
Allahumma laa sahla 'illa maal ja'altahu sahlan wa 'Anta taj'alul-hazna 'ithaa shi'ta sahlan.
Ya Allah, there is no ease other than what You make easy. If You please You ease sorrow.
Ya Allah, the Wise, the Bestower of Wisdom
My friends Dua's are defined as any invocation or prayer addressed to Almighty ALLAH Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD).
Through Dua, we strengthen our faith and our relationship with Almighty ALLAH Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD).
We find many reassurances throughout the Qur'an for those who make Dua.
Allah the Exalted, has said: "And your Lord says: Pray unto me: and I will hear your prayer" (Qur'an 40:60)
Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam), said:
"If you trust Allah with right kind of Tawakkul,
He will provide you sustenance as He provides for the birds –
They go out in the morning with empty stomachs
And come back in the evening with full stomachs." (Hadith in Al-Tirmidhi)
Any good is from Almighty Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD) & the mistakes were from me.
Please pray for me and ask Almighty Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD) to forgive me.
May Almighty Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD) guide all of us to His Truth?
May Allah Subhanahu wata`aalaa grant us what is best in this world and the next!
Action speaks louder then words my friend's practice Islam the way of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) did.
May Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD) help us to do that which He loves and which pleases Him?
May Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala (GOD) make our efforts sincere and keep us all on the straight path...........
Feel free to Share the information here with everyone you know,
And earn Sawab-e-Jariya... (Sadqah Jariya)
May Almighty Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'aala make it a source of Sawab-e-Jariya for YOU and me .Ameen?
..... P.S.: "Have fun praying don't forget to make Dua for me"...

TurnHere just released some findings from a survey that they conducted in Q3 with brands and marketing agencies from a wide range of industries. The purpose of the research study was to explore current and future trends in the use of online video amongst marketers across companies of all sizes. And, as you might expect, the news is good for the business of online video.
Again, given that this research was conducted in-house at a company who's life blood relies on the success of online video, you might expect nothing but good news for online video. That being said, the survey seems to have been well thought out and there are some very positive results from the survey which point to the overall notion that online video has and will continue to have a prominent place in the marketing arsenal. Regardless of any perceived subjectivity, these results seem to support similar findings we've seen from other recent research studies .
Overall, there were 116 respondents which came from companies of all sizes, with annual marketing budgets of as low as $100K to more than $5 million. Companies that participated included Fortune 500 brands, regional brands, digital, PR and traditional agencies and respondents included those at all levels, from CEOs to those working within marketing departments.
Here are some of the key findings:
1) When asked to rank various online marketing priorities for 2010, video was ranked as the top priority, edging out both email, search marketing, and social media campaigns.
Please rank the priority of the following online marketing initiatives for your company in 2010 from 1 (being not a priority) to 4 (being a top priority).
2) In most companies the internal marketing team is responsible for making decisions about use of online video (81% of respondents). Internal PR teams and internal digital teams were second with 15.5% each.
Who makes decisions regarding the use of online video in your organization?
3) The top reasons for video use given: branding (60%), gaining exposure on video sites like YouTube (54.7%) and creating viral content (48%)
What are the major factors that compelled you to use online video?
4) Companies are experimenting across a wide range of video marketing: 57% have created branded video; 40% have used video for product or service demos, and 37% for customer or employee testimonials.
What type of online video have you made in the last 12 months (check all that apply)?
To see the rest of the findings, you can download a free copy of the report here (PDF)

The seas still have many surprises in store for us: for example, the larger Pacific striped octopus displays behaviour that astonishes researchers – and is quite unlike that of a typical cephalopod, whether in terms of mating, egg laying or hunting.
A shrimp walks unsuspectingly along the sandy sea floor. Suddenly, something taps on the front section of its shell. The scared crustacean flees backwards, straight into the awaiting tentacles of its hunter, the larger Pacific striped octopus. Octopuses typically pounce on their prey or poke around in holes until they find something to eat. The larger Pacific striped octopus displays more finesse: "When this octopus sees a shrimp, it compresses itself and creeps up, extends an arm up and over the shrimp and scares it," explains Roy Caldwell from the University of California.
Together with his team, the marine biologist caught 24 of these octopuses and observes them in large aquariums in his laboratory. The researchers wanted to get to the bottom of the rumours about the animals' unique behaviour. These seemed so strange that no-one has really dared to publish anything about them until now.
It is not just its hunting behaviour that makes this octopus different; it is also unusually sociable. Whereas most octopus species prefer to swim through the sea on their own, the larger Pacific striped octopus can be found in groups of up to 40 of its kind.
The larger Pacific striped octopus is also like no other when it comes to mating. For other octopuses, this is somewhat of a dangerous activity: the male cautiously tries to insert the tentacle that is acting as his mating arm into the female's body. While doing so, the animal always remains at a distance and is ready to flee if the female becomes aggressive or even hungry.
This is all very different in the case of the larger Pacific striped octopus. Here, the male approaches its mate face on until they are positioned beak to beak. "This mating pose had never before been seen in octopuses," the scientist commented. The male slowly moves his mating arm to the target area while the female even partially wraps him in her arms. This process is not necessarily a tender one: several males were left with clear suction pad marks afterwards. After mating, that is not the end of the couple though. The researchers observed that the animals often lived together in a hole for several days and presumably even shared food.
This could also be to do with another special characteristic of these creatures – the females mate multiple times, even if they have already laid eggs in holes or baby octopuses have already hatched. During this period, they do not stop eating like other species. They furthermore produce several clutches of eggs. One of the females observed even did this daily for an entire six months. The mothers carefully tend to the eggs, monitor them and move their tentacles over and among the eggs, presumably to clean them.
The larger Pacific striped octopus has a magnificent and highly contrasting pattern of spots and stripes. Its natural habitat includes the Pacific coast of Nicaragua and Panama, where it is found at depths of 40 to 50 metres. Although far from inconspicuous, we have only known about this species of octopus since 1977. However, these is still no scientific description of it so it has not yet been given a Latin species name.
Information about its unusual behaviour was first published in 1982. "Observing this octopus and its unbelievable behaviour was almost as though a mythical creature had been brought to life," the marine biologist commented in description of his findings. "This example is a testament to how little is known about most octopuses," believes Caldwell. To date, only a handful of the over 300 known octopus species have been thoroughly researched.

This deals with the personal injury and wrongful death cases resulting from construction accidents, as well as the safety laws, regulations and standards governing the construction industry. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is the governing regulatory body for construction site safety.
As our clients understand, construction accidents range from minor to catastrophic, and occasionally result in death. Although these accidents may occur on a client's site, they often result from the negligence of others such as faulty construction equipment; defective products; defective machines; inadequate safety or equipment training, as well as negligent or reckless co-workers. The defense of these matters require quick and thorough investigations.
Some construction workers are limited by law to receiving only workers' compensation for their construction injuries. However, in many cases, workers can also recover damages from partially or completely responsible parties, who are not their employer, based upon theories of negligence and product liability.
Various entities may be liable for construction accidents. They include the construction site owner, architects and engineering professionals, contractors, construction managers, and manufacturers of construction machinery or equipment.
At Dorsett Johnson & Swift, we have assembled an "immediate response" team that includes attorneys, investigators and experts (when necessary) to best defend our clients when they are most in need.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A state regulator said cleanup of a massive 2013 oil spill in northwestern North Dakota is being slowed due to the lack of natural gas needed to power equipment at the site.
State environmental scientist Bill Suess said workers will be at the site near Tioga at least another two years baking oil from the soil using a process called thermal desorption.
Workers are trying to bring a second thermal desorption machine online but there is not enough natural gas available commercially in the area to power the unit. Suess called it "an irony" due to the amount of natural gas in the region that is being flared.
The spill was discovered by a Tioga farmer in September 2013 and has been called the worst in state history.
