Grasping at Eternity (The Kindrily, #1)
"When it's dark enough, you can see the stars." What I felt after I read this book:1)Wow!2)I love this book! 3)This book took my breath away!4)I will love it forever. Conclusion: It's so beautiful. I would give this book an infinite amount of stars. I would give it all the stars in the universe. "If you love someone, put their name in a circle; because hearts can be broken, but circles never end." I was squealing with delight till the very end of this book. This story was completely different from all the other books I read. "That's what stories are for - to learn something." Every chapter spun a web of intricacy, intensity and love. I got sucked into this book and I realized while reading it that I was drowning in this sweet world where the words from this book were my oxygen. This book was amazing in every way. It had everything that would grasp its readers till the very end. Every character in this book was a symphony and all their symphonies combined made this book a lovely, beautiful song.I knew this book was something. The very first line whispered in my ear that I would love this book irrespective of how it proceeds. And yes, I did love it. Grasping at Eternity grasped me till the very end. "The stars are waiting for you."

Not many people feel like they have it easy when it comes to planning their move. As some people know, moving can be an incredibly difficult thing. It can be stressful, confusing and extremely expensive. Thankfully, there are a few ways that people can reduce these unpleasant things. As ones moving day approaches, people can make sure to keep a few helpful suggestions in the back of their mind, so that they will not end up feeling completely stressed out a few days before their move.
One of the first things that people can do to help themselves is to search through the best interstate moving companies available. The ideal group of interstate movers will have no trouble providing their clients with several different assurances, including an upfront estimate, proof of licensing and a list of references that people can contact. By finding a moving company that can provide simple assurances like these, families and couples will have taken the first step towards making their move less stressful.
A second way that people can make their move less difficult is to make sure that they do not wait too long to get started on things. With a moving checklist, families could plan out what they need to get done well in advance of the day they hope to move from. Each day, they can check off something that they accomplish. As the number of things checked off grows, the individual or couple will feel more confident that their move will go off without a hitch.
Finally, a great way to make moving easier is to eat light during their last week. Those that still cook full meals during their last week at their old home may end up having to pack up the majority of their kitchenware the night before they move. Pots, pans and other similar items can be very heavy. By packing things like these up ahead of time and eating meals that only require one pot, people can make sure that they have less to do before their moving day arrives.
If you are about to embark on a cross country move, then it is likely that you have started researching your new home town and have started to imagine how your life will change in this new environment. However, before you can find your new favorite restaurant or plan your new route to your new job, you need to find long distance movers to help you transport your belongings. Finding long distance movers has moved beyond hiring a team of strong movers to help pack up and secure your furniture into a hollow truck trailer. Nowadays, individuals explore different ways of successfully moving, including utilizing moving pods and other methods of cross country moving. Before you get started packing boxes, why not consider your options?
Taking the time to conduct your research can help you find the best long distance movers for your specific situation. Since moving is a stressful time to begin with, ensuring that you are well prepared can help you cut down on the amount of stress that you feel on and around your moving day. Start by thinking about the size of move you are looking to complete. If you are moving as a single individual, you may be able to seek out smaller scale long distance movers than a family with multiple members. However, regardless of the size of move you are completing, checking out long distance movers in the form of moving pods can be a great option for anyone. One of the biggest benefits of choosing these types of long distance movers is that while you are responsible for packing and securing your belongings in the moving pod, the moving company is responsible for their safe transport to your new location. This means that you do not have to worry about driving an exceptionally large moving vehicle or hooking up a trailer to your personal vehicle and making the drive, which can make certain individuals feel uncomfortable. Additionally, choosing these types of long distance movers means that the moving pods will be dropped off and picked up at the locations you choose, which greatly adds to convenience.
If you are interested in finding companies to provide you with moving pods, consider conducting an internet search to find some of the most popular options. You can use websites to familiarize yourself with the details of these types of moves, including pricing options.

So, what exactly is programming, what
is it good for? Esentially, programming is just writing a collection of words
(most of the time they're words, not always) that, when rendered with the
right software, produce software. This page you're reading, for example,
would be the software: I typed it all out, along with HTML code, the result
being this page. If in your browser you click and/or right-click and choose
"View Source" you can see the HTML for this page. Anything in the 'source'
of this page with <> around it is HTML. The HTML isn't too helpful as
just text, it's only useful when rendered in a browser. This is the basics of
programming: You write 'source code' that translates into some sort of
HTML is probably the simplest, and least powerful, language out there. It generally only produces wepages. Depending on what you want to do, there are different languages for the task: General purpose language for making any type of software, other wepage-oriented languages, languages for controlling hardware such as microcontrollers, etc.
So, what exactly should YOU learn? That depends. What do you want to do?
If you want to...
Design Webpages
- learn HTML. I said before, this is probably
the easiest language in existance. You can learn it quickly and easily, and
be making a webpage in minutes. It starts off easy and never gets very
complicated. if you intend to make a webpage, you don't really have much
else choice; there are other web-oriented languages, but they supplement HTML,
they don't replace it.
With HTML you can make quite complex pages, but if you want to add any sort of interactivity or dynamic content whatsoever, you'll have to learn another language in addition: some examples are Java, JavaScript (java and javascript are very different. These two names are not interchangable), Perl, VBScript, PHP, and there are many others.
Write all other kinds of software - Learn a traditional, general purpose language. Of these I would recommend either BASIC or C. BASIC is good for beginners because it shields you from much of the inner workings of the computer. However, ultimately, you'll probably move on from BASIC as it's not too powerful. And, ultimately, you'll probably migrate to C, so, why not just start there. Certainly, there's no reason not to. C is almost as simple, more powerful, more widely supported, and just makes more sense. Once you master C you can move on to C++, and extension of C with many more features. There are tons of other languages out there, I'm only speaking for ones I've programmed in.
So, what It all comes down to is: read up on the different languages out
there, and be aware of the limitations of each. Some links to helpful
information and tutorials, as well as tutorials I've written, are provided
below. For whatever language you choose, you'll need to obtain proper software
in run your code. Most languages are "compiled" - a compiler is a program
that turns your code into code the computer can use and execute. You'll find
that some languages are slowly dying - BASIC, for example, its most popular
dialects are QBASIC and Visual Basic. QBASIC is DOS-Based, and since DOS is
all but dead, QBASIC is slowly disappearing. Visual Basic, which is considerably
different, is windows based, and is still quite alive.
Browse through the links and find a language that suits your needs

We don't have live dinosaurs running around today who could step on a bathroom scale and weigh themselves. But how much DID they weigh? Well, scientists have tried to guess. Take the spinosaurus, which true to its name had huge 5-foot spines along its back. We have only bones to help guess the weight; we don't know how much skin, fat and muscle this fellow had. We do know these dinos were about 50 feet long, which is longer than most whole houses, and easily stood over 10 feet tall, way taller than your bedroom ceiling. The whole animal could have weighed anywhere from 8 to 23 tons. By comparison, a car weighs about 2 tons. Even if you had a pet spino dino, it couldn't fit on a bathroom scale anyway!
Wee ones: Who's taller, you or a 5-foot-tall spine on a spinosaurus? Find out your height in feet!
Little kids: How much taller than you is that 5-foot spine — or how much taller are you? Bonus: If you have 10-foot measuring tapes, how many of those would you have to lay end to end to measure that 50-foot dino?
Big kids: A 23-ton spinosaurus would weigh almost 3 times an 8-ton one, if that turned out to be right. How much would YOU weigh if you turned out to weigh 3 times as much? Bonus: How much more does a 23-ton stegosaurus weigh than a 6-ton elephant, in pounds? (Reminder if needed: A ton has 2,000 pounds.)
The sky's the limit: If you have 3 spinosaurus of different sizes, and the first 2 together weigh 11 tons, the 2nd and 3rd together weigh 22 tons, and the 1st and 3rd together weigh 15 tons, how much does each one weigh?
Wee ones: Different for everyone…see if your height is more or less than 5 feet.
Little kids: Different for everyone again…subtract your height from 5, or subtract 5 from your height. Bonus: 5 tapes.
Big kids: Different again…multiply your weight by 3. You can also add it to itself, then add it on 1 more time. Bonus: 34,000 pounds, since it weighs 17 tons more.
The sky's the limit: 2, 9 and 13 tons. If the 1st and 2nd weigh 11 and the 1st and 3rd weigh 15, then swapping out the 2nd dino for the 3rd increased the total by 4 tons. So the 3rd weighs 4 tons more than the 2nd dino. Together those 2 weigh 22 tons, so if the 3rd were as small as the 2nd, they'd weigh just 18 tons. That means the 2nd dino weighs 9 tons, and you can figure out the other 2 from there.

So how exactly does Somebody Obtain Power From the Cell through the night?
There are lots of individuals who think that setting up solar power panels on the top isn't economical because the solar tissue just produce electrical power throughout the day. These folks question the reason why they ought to feel the trouble of creating the cell variety which just creates electrical power once the sunlight is actually glowing. This particular misconception is actually common, particularly because acquiring electrical power in the sunlight is really a complex procedure. Essentially what goes on may be the sunlight attacks the actual solar tissue, therefore producing electrical power. This particular established fact as well as recognized. Nevertheless, exactly what many people don't know is actually how the electrical power that isn't getting used within after that saved within electric batteries. Your family home appliances pull electrical power in the sunlight, so when that isn't sufficient, they pull in the electric batteries.
The actual electric batteries final in between 3 as well as 10 years, therefore presently there shouldn't be an issue presently there. These people are available in various dimensions as well as types as well as are not awfully difficult to find. Being that they are an important element of the actual cell set up, really feel liberated to look around as well as evaluate costs. The actual tend to be big such as vehicle electric batteries as well as shouldn't be attracted from a lot more than eighty % of the convenience of a long time. Additionally, there might be a few those who are concerned about sketching an excessive amount of electrical power in the electric batteries as well as getting all of them overburden. Luckily there's a answer for your too, which is known as the cost controller. In contrast to blend sections as well as combines which journey whenever overworked, cell arrays have a gadget which adjusts just how much electrical power is actually saved previously inside the electric batteries. The actual cost converter essentially helps prevent the overburden from the electric batteries as well as halts getting all of them whenever this sensory faculties how the electric batteries tend to be totally complete.
The actual solar tissue, the actual electric batteries, the actual cost controller along with other aspects of the actual cell just about all interact to create electrical power with regard to houses just about all in the united states. Actually within locations exactly where energy vegetation might be far or even types which do not provide several choices, there's an additional option. When the readers chooses he or she really wants to develop a do-it-yourself (DIY) cell, he then must understand it will require period. Nevertheless, it's a practical method to regularly produce electrical power actually through the night period or even within over cast climate. Since the actual query associated with how to proceed once the sunlight models may be clarified, really feel liberated to reveal these details along with anybody that requires.
Obviously this short article wasn't concerning the real building from the cell variety, however information to understand prior to 1 begins. Because the readers is probably interested in the particular creating of 1 (otherwise she or he most likely would not possess study this particular to start with), he or she won't be remaining empty-handed.
Recondition Aged Electric batteries With regard to Use within a house Green Power Task
A lot of us imagine residing "off the actual grid. inch Nowadays house green power has become a lot more of the practical prospective client. There are lots of benefits to some house photo voltaic or even blowing wind energy set up, however what goes on once the blowing wind does not whack or even the sun's rays does not sparkle.
The solution for this would be to shop the ability when it's obtainable in the financial institution associated with electric batteries. Generally these types of may contain guide acidity accumulator kind electric batteries much like an automobile electric battery. Regrettably these types of can be very costly and may rapidly erode any kind of cost savings a person help to make within disconnecting the actual gird energy merely within the price of purchasing as well as sustaining each one of these electric batteries.
1 answer would be to obtain as well as recondition aged electric batteries. This can be a really economical prospective client if a person help to make the actual models associated with rubbish back yards garages as well as anyplace that could make use of electrical automobiles such as golfing buggies upon golfing programs, you are able to generally get aged types free of charge. Actually they'll be happy in order to allow you to consider all of them away their own fingers.
Frequently these types of damaged electric batteries could be renewed in order to maximum effectiveness, within the unusual situation they're past preserving however a fast check may let you know that ought to end up being renewed as well as that disposed of. There are lots of techniques including including readily available chemical substances towards the electric battery liquid such as Epsom salts, as well as changing the actual electrolyte liquid along with 1 known as EDTA that means ethylene diamine tetra acetic. A few techniques calls for easy resources that are being sold or even created, however any kind of cost can pay with regard to by itself quickly within the cost savings you'll help to make.
Soon you'll have your own financial institution associated with electric batteries for the house green power task, as well as just about all it'll have set you back is actually at most, 100s instead of 1000s of dollars as well as a little bit of your time and effort. Another great news may be the ability in order to recondition aged electric batteries will simply be sought after once we decrease the dependence upon fossil energy sources, and it is feasible you may make good quality cash rebuilding electric batteries with regard to other people to make use of.
Green Power — Advantages of the house Proprietor as well as The environment
Everyone knows which materials associated with fossil energy sources tend to be dwindling worldwide. We're reminded just about every day through the press. Due to this, government authorities as well as environmentalists tend to be caution people who we have to make a move otherwise maintain using the growing need with regard to power. Individuals almost everywhere are considering the benefits of green power as well as regardless of whether there's a supply of energy that they'll make use of.
Past dwindling materials, an additional significant problem along with fossil energy sources is actually they have a dreadful effect on environmental surroundings. A tragedy such as the current BP nicely blowout within the Gulf really should not be essential to show this particular in order to all of us. A few researchers condition there's a immediate relationship in between using fossil energy sources as well as worldwide heating. Worldwide heating modifications climate designs which include warmth surf, hurricanes as well as droughts. This particular seriously effects the actual life-style with regard to each human being as well as pet varieties.
In the event that you are searching for just a little training about the harm which worldwide heating performs, a person may decide to lease the actual written 'An Bothersome Truth' out of your nearby movie shop. You'll be amazed as well as may wish to include eco-friendly power to the style of your house regardless of whether you're creating brand new, or even desire to help to make minor modifications for your current house to create this power effective.
One of the biggest benefits of green power is actually that it's the thoroughly clean eco-friendly type of power as well as creates a small co2 impact. Lots of people are becoming about the green power bandwagon as well as selecting to make use of green power resources for example solar energy, blowing wind energy as well as geothermal power.
You will discover that we now have much more work produced by using eco-friendly power, as well as these types of may remain in the usa too. Several jobs provide great spend as well as advantages. These types of brand new work may much outweigh the actual couple of dropped within the fossil energy sectors.
An additional associated with the benefits of green power is actually how the federal government provides taxes credit as well as motivation applications for those who decide to set up green power technologies. You will find presently government taxes credit obtainable for those who decide to set up solar energy. These types of government taxes credit constitute thirty percent from the worth associated with photo voltaic techniques as well as may be used with regard to each industrial as well as home qualities. Seek advice from the local authorities, as numerous says possess taxes credit and several nearby resources also provide refund applications, with respect to the kind of green power or even home appliances set up.
Along with green power getting less expensive via price cutbacks, taxes credit or even refunds, individuals are a lot more prepared to set up green power technologies as well as safeguard environmental surroundings through additional worldwide heating if it's inside their achieve. The folks selecting to set up green power in many cases are exactly the same people who market eco-friendly towns. Several eco-friendly towns function very difficult from becoming eco mindful people, as well as perform exactly what they are able to to enhance environmental surroundings and also the globe that people reside in.
Eco-friendly metropolitan areas market particular environment guidelines for individuals being much more power effective as well as reduce air pollution as well as possible harm to environmental surroundings. Each year, Nationwide Geographic creates the actual Eco-friendly Manual, supplying excellent details about numerous eco-friendly problems as well as listings the very best 10 eco-friendly metropolitan areas. Do you consider your own town will probably be showcased with this year's manual?
This short article offers just handled the area, because the benefits of green power might very easily fill up the guide. To date, we have looked over the benefits of eco-friendly power, however It's also essential that people consider the drawbacks too. The primary drawback is actually the truth that it is as well price beyond reach to set up green power technologies, specific within retrofit circumstances. Technologies is actually enhancing every day however till this enhances significantly, just people with throw away money can pay the $20, 000 this expenses to set up the PHOTO VOLTAIC photo voltaic program, unless of course they're creating a brand new house. Luckily, integrating eco-friendly power inside a brand new house is not very because costly, which is a comparatively little portion associated with complete creating expenses, especially if you think about the price cost savings within the existence from the set up items.
Photo voltaic Green Power With regard to House Make use of
Lastly The actual imagine recording free of charge power in the sunlight offers isn't any lengthier only a pursuit of numerous decades associated with researchers. Using the most recent improvements within technologies, this particular type of energy has become open to the house proprietor.
Photo voltaic green power may be used with regard to illumination, cooking food, drinking water heating system as well as running automobiles.
You've most likely currently observed green solar power for action without having understanding this, because a few visitors indicators currently make use of the sunlight to maintain all of them working whenever additional energy cannot achieve all of them. Transportable indicators will also be driven through solar power panels, as well as crisis 911 cell phones in the roadside tend to be completely driven upon solar power by using the standard rechargeable electric battery within along with a PHOTO VOLTAIC cell towards the top of the actual post.
You are able to produce a fundamental photo voltaic device through a few dark plastic material steaming along with a little pump motor — as well as if it's entirely sunshine, inside min's comfortable, as well as warm water, is going to be open to end up being distributed to some swimming pool or even below ground heat. Industrial variations of the easy, reduced heat as well as stress photo voltaic extractor seem like countless little pipes glued alongside as well as linked over the best as well as base having a big a lot more tube. Whenever attached to the pool blood circulation pump motor, they are able to supply basically free of charge warmth towards the swimming pool. Consider it, the actual pump motor needs to be operating anyhow to operate the actual filtration system, to too make use of these types of sections in order to warmth your own swimming pool. I have obtained regarding six hundred sq . ft of these upon my personal roofing, plus they may boost the heat associated with my personal twenty five, 000 gallon swimming pool through regarding two levels for each day time associated with complete sunlight. All of us reside from regarding four thousand ft height, as well as right here, the actual swimming pool may be from ninety levels upon several event.
A far more daring DO-IT-YOURSELF property owner, may buy some temperature, ruthless, roofing installed group of solar power panels to supply warm water to some storage space container with regard to use within the majority of home circumstances. The blood circulation pump motor as well as controller is usually the main set up and when a person arranged the actual manage higher sufficient, you will get the actual container in order to regarding one hundred and eighty levels along with lots of sunlight. Obviously, should you choose arranged this which higher you will need to be sure you possess a combining control device about the result in order to mood water to some less dangerous 125 levels to provide the home. Although an adequately size program can offer all the warm water you're accustomed to, you might like to include a couple of of those photo voltaic green power sections just like a high upward with regard to other forms associated with heating system, as well as you will see the preserving inside your bills as well.
To create electrical power through solar power, you may think about setting up photo voltaic pv (PV) sections create DC (Direct Current) electrical power, that is exactly the same type because which from the electric battery. This particular type of photo voltaic green power is utilized within backwoods places with regard to a number of features, and also the room train station as well as satellites make use of this type of energy. Although it indicates a considerable expense for that home owner, if you wish to take a look at eco-friendly choices this particular definitely is really a useful 1.
You'll need a much more roofing room for any PHOTO VOLTAIC program compared to drinking water heating system (unless you're heating system the floating around pool) as well as the quantity of cabling needed may be greatest remaining to some competent electrical installer to set up. The actual appeal with regard to photo voltaic green power is actually that you'll usually obtain power once the sunlight is actually glowing. You will find not many operating components within the techniques that may need replacing, producing all of them reduced upkeep too.
Extra advantages of photo voltaic green power techniques consist of they help to make absolutely no sound, and may appear fashionable whenever installed on the top dealing with toward sunshine.

No two Clubs have the same requirements when it comes to signs for visitors travelling by car. Some have long driveways, whereas others you turn straight into an area for parking. Your golf car park signage should inform the visitor of where to go from the point where they turn off the road. Each golf car park sign should be clear and provide the right information for drivers. The aim should be to guide them effectively so they have a great experience and can spend more time out on the course or using the facilities. Make sure signs for designated car park spaces are very clear to prevent inappropriate use. Clubs also need to think carefully about their Golf Clubhouse signage. Ideally all access points need to be identified clearly. This is why it is wise to choose projecting signs that stand out. Very often a signage survey needs to be done to determine exactly what products are needed. EAGLE has a team of business development managers with the necessary experience to advise on what is needed. Our car park and Golf Clubhouse sign systems ensure a well designed, coordinated approach to these areas. We can offer bespoke designs for internal and external use, including pavement signs. In addition we can provide high quality door signwriting. The zinc etched sign system is so versatile that the concept can be used inside the Clubhouse as well, thereby continuing the brand image throughout. As a result it is a very popular option. There are plenty of other materials to choose from though, giving you the chance to determine exactly what you want.

Nowhere else in the world can you see and experience such an abundance and variety of wildlife as in the Galapagos Islands. A naturalist's dream, the Galapagos Islands lie on the Equator, 600 miles west of Ecuador and the South American coastline. Formed as a result of intense volcanic activity, they consist of 61 islands and islets, with 13 main islands. Existing in virtual isolation for millions of years, they are home to many species found nowhere else on Earth. More than 1,900 of its more than 5,000 species are endemic.
Charles Darwin, observed the potential scientific bonanza of the islands' flora and fauna in 1835 and was inspired to write his famous thesis, "On the Origin of the Species by Means of Natural Selection." Aside from a few roving pirates and buccaneers, the islands remained untouched by man for centuries.
Our naturalist guide will fill us in on the extraordinary variety of plants and wildlife as we will visit and explore various islands. A birdwatchers paradise, there are 29 species of land bird found here and 22 of them are endemic to the islands. See the world's smallest penguins, the bright red-chested frigate birds, the flightless cormorants, boobies, hawks, owls and lava gulls. In the sea, you'll experience the wonder of watching giant sea turtles swimming to their homes, and sea lions playfully splashing as you snorkel along looking at multitudes of colorful fish. All this from the comfort of a modern and well appointed ship.

Later in the day we sail further around Santiago Island to the tiny Bartholomew (Bartolomé) Island.

A tiny colony of Galapagos penguins resides at the foot of the rock. Ride the dinghy around this colossal-sized rock and relax on the sand beach here to swim and snorkel, perhaps with penguins. A glass-bottom boat will also be available to further enhance our experience. As we set sail, look for the dolphins that live in this area, and which sometimes enjoy swimming alongside the boats.

How important are teachers to our future as a nation? If you think only a little, read this article; if you think they are fundamental to nation building, read this article to confirm your views.
Respect for teachers is the first step. Respect from all stakeholders, but respect must be earned. Where respect is given and deserved, we have transforming, joyous consequences, especially when given by all members of the community around a school.
Firstly respect must be earned. The SADTU professionalisation of teachers' initiative, amongst others, focuses our admiration on those many teachers who are professional.
What is professional? You will recognise this person.
As a starting point for the professional teacher, "showing up is overrated; necessary but not nearly sufficient "(Seth Godin: Beyond Showing Up). Time on task is not enough, because the professional teacher has moved beyond just showing up for work. With the joy of truly engaging each young person, professional teachers exude positive attitudes, extend knowledge and make sound judgements.
Because teaching is not a job, it is a calling.
Teaching is a calling because teachers ''touch eternity'', their influence goes on from generation to generation.
The professional teacher has a vision of developing the spiritual, emotional, intellectual dimensions of a child, so they become fully themselves. They transform potential, which will grow our communities and our nation.
Professional teachers create excitement and exploration, whether it is in open learning, IT situations, or discussion of issues and ideas. Professional teachers stimulate passion and involvement because they believe their work has profound meaning.
Professional teachers are defined by ethical boundaries, commitment, and humility, the ability to collaborate with other teachers and parents to create a safe and fascinating environment in the classroom, at home and in the community.
Professional teachers not only engage the young minds but also engage the parents or caregivers and the community. They rejoice in seeing the community working with the school to develop the child. "It takes a whole village to raise a child'' or "One on one, one by one, then together.''
Professional teachers should be seen as role models in society. Individuals of such moral, positive attitude to life that they are examples. That is why professional teachers deserve respect.
The professional teacher is a lifelong learner and particularly about how the brain works and how to impart knowledge. Teaching and learning go hand in hand. Learning doesn't take place if there is no teaching. Professional teachers in their humility also have profound self-knowledge and know what they don't know, their own strength and weakness.
Finally professional judgement is the key to the professionalisation of teachers. A teacher, who creates an exciting environment but makes a play for a female teenage learner, is making a wrong professional judgement. A principal who, when mediating differences between colleagues, makes an unprofessional judgement call, can divide a school and destroy it. Professional judgements are founded on a code of ethics, mutual respect, respect especially for each individual learner. For example, dismissing the "social woundedness" of a community, and not trying to understand how this impacts individual learners, is poor professional judgement. Then, not setting up psycho-social structures to assist individuals, is an even worse judgement.
Let us understand the greatness of teachers in building our nation, help them, celebrate them and encourage them. Above all, let us encourage our top learners to become teachers, because they will build the professionalism of teaching and the efficacy of our country.

The variations of frittata are endless and only limited by your imagination, and perhaps by what's in season.
A frittata is also a good way of using up veggies in your fridge before restocking.
Another cook once, eat twice/thrice dish
Here's one to add to your repertoire. It's cooked in the one pan on the stove and finished off in the oven. Less washing up – always a good thing for the kitchen hand!
A simple Sunday Veggo Night option that covers all your nutritional needs for healthy eating – protein from eggs and pine nuts, plant iron from the spinach, coupled with semi-dried tomatoes for Vitamin C which helps with iron absorption
Here's what you need:
- 5 organic or free range eggs
- 1 cup cream
- 300g pumpkin, diced into 1 cm cubes
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1/3 cup pine nuts, you can dry roast them beforehand if you want
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 cup semi dried tomatoes, chopped (but not too small)
- a generous handful of baby spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh sage leaves
- 150g feta (we used Australian feta of course), broken into small pieces
- 1/2 cup parsley, chopped
- 1/3 cup of parmesan cheese
Here's what you do:
In a heavy based or cast iron frypan (choose one that you can also put in the oven), saute the pumpkin for 10 -12 minutes in a couple of tablespoons of olive oil until the pumpkin begins to soften and caramelise.
Add the onion and stir for 1 minute to soften.
Add in the cumin seeds, pine nuts and garlic and take off the heat to avoid burning the garlic. Note – a cast iron pan will continue to cook for a while. Season with salt & pepper.
Add the semi-dried tomatoes, feta, baby spinach, parsley and sage leaves.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cream together.
Pour the egg mixture over the veggies in the pan and gently combine the ingredients. Let the mixture bake (without stirring) on the stove top on a low heat for 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and place the pan in the oven at a moderate temperature and cook until golden brown on top and the egg has set.

Fancy yourself an amateur design guru? Planning to scheme the whole kit and caboodle for an upcoming kitchen or bath renovation?
Here are 7 useful DIY design tips to prevent your makeover from making the next episode of "Home Renovation Disasters"!
Invest in design software
Face it, a professional designer has way more experience than you do envisioning what a room will really look like based on any particular combination of design elements and upgrades.
Fortunately, it's easier than ever to level the playing field with modern 3-dimensional planning solutions. Not only will high-tech software help you determine whether your flooring selection matches the proposed countertop, but being able to see the spatial relationships within the confines of your limited square footage will also help save you from overcrowding the room and limiting functionality.
You can find plenty of options in Consolidated Plumbing's Kitchen Design Software Buying Guide.
Focus on who & what
Before you start worrying about which faucet, sink or oven you'd like to install, take the time to really flesh out a realistic understanding of who uses the space and what they do there.
Designing a kitchen or bath that matches the true personality of your home's residents is far more important than developing an aesthetic worthy of Better Homes & Gardens.
Function first, form second. Always.
Pro Tip: There are actually proven standard layout templates (complete with measurements) employed by architects and planners. Research best practices when it comes to your kitchen triangle, tub/bath/toilet placement, etc., and stick to the "rules."
Start with one luxury splurge
If you're on a limited budget, don't try to go with "mediocre" everything. Instead, choose that one glamourous luxury upgrade that will rock your world and then work the rest of your budget in from there.
After all, a kitchen or bath makeover is meant to change your life—so make sure at least one element of your new room will knock your socks off.
Cut costs by repurposing
It's easy to get in over your head budget-wise when mapping out your ideal kitchen or bathroom. Instead of throwing your dreams into the garbage can when costs exceed what you can realistically afford, go back and reevaluate which elements of your current kitchen or bath can be salvaged.
In particular, the cost of cabinet replacement is extraordinary. By opting for new cabinet hardware and refinishing you'll have more available funds for upgrading important features such as faucets and appliances.
Flooring and countertop improvements are two more costly alterations that can be avoided by working what you've already got into the new design.
Don't go overboard
Sometimes the number of goodies you can go with is limited more by space and less by budget. Always bear in mind that a room packed to the gills with luxuries may not be very luxurious at all.
Hire the best
While we'd all like to stick to our budget and score a great deal, "you get what you pay for" rings true when it comes to general contractors.
Do your due diligence when collecting bids by focusing less on the price and more on references. Never hire a tradesman or GC based on their overall reputation alone—always ask to see one of their most recent projects. Ideally you'd like to visit one finished renovation and another one that is currently in progress. You can learn a lot about "how" a particular tradesman works by watching them on the job.
Pro Tip: Often the best contractors won't be available right away. It's usually worth the wait to postpone your renovation until your team of choice is free.
Keep your crew happy
While it's not your responsibility to provide a full-course meal, you'd be surprised how much morale and attitude will shift on your work site with hot coffee in the morning and cold refreshments in the afternoon.
It's a small investment to get the most out of your team!

The internet marketing world has developed in last 10 years. It has expanded itself to an extent where you can not overlook it. Its related terms are also evolving with it, swiftly. Although, until now the single most way of content distribution for marketers has been native advertising. Whereas, content marketing is a bit different and larger in the context of advertising and content distribution. Several new businesses and marketers mistakenly use these two terms vice versa. However, these two rising terms in the internet world have different meanings and potentials.
It is important to understand the differences in the definitions of these two as the internet marketing is evolving at an expeditious speed.
Be with us through this blog and discover comprehensible distinctions between native advertising and content marketing.
We are all familiar with native advertising. It is a form of online advertising. We can describe it; discrete, smooth and paid ad placements.
The usual placement of paid ads within a website is smooth and unintrusive. Likewise, they don't disturb user's web experience. Basically, this type of advertising is different than traditional advertising. Usually, ads in between paragraphs or in the left side of the corner are native ads. Comparatively, they don't look like ads of traditional advertising, neither do they advertise for a service, directly.
Moreover, in this type of advertising, the content distribution will be of interesting and relevant information for better user engagement. Often, businesses use this to target audience on other's domains. In this, they often use "headline hacks" to attract more users. To separate confusions with editorial content, they are often labelled as "ad" or "sponsored".
The native ads are usually get placed within user's direct reading flow. Consequently, they easily adjust into the surrounding content and do not distort user's experience. Now, around 200 million people are using ad blockers, which do not affect these native ad formats. And, clicks cost around $0.03 to $0.06 for mobile and desktop. Indeed, it is safe to say that native advertising is growing.
The content marketing is a much broader idea in terms of advertising. It has been appraised as a wider and long-term focused goal in marketing. Similarly to native advertising, content marketing offers valuable cognizance to lift up brand awareness. At the same time, it focuses on the specific group of potential customers. Furthermore, it focuses on sustaining the brand's lead as a part of long-term goals. Eventually, it results in increased sales and conversions.
Read our another blog on Marketing Automation:Marketing Automation Can Do Wonders If Applied Sensibly
It is a continuous process that incorporates in a whole marketing campaign, and not just in a single portion of information. In content marketing process, the included assets are following; the blog that you are reading, videos, guides, newsletters, whitepapers, etc. In this, the media shared through content marketing is usually owned by the business that shares it.
It is an alliance of form and functioning. Subsequently, it plays an essentially growing part in publisher's strategies of monetization. And, becomes one of the best practices of online marketers in their marketing campaigns.
Below are the types in which you can use native advertising:
In native advertising, properly labelling your content is beneficial. Moreover, if you use inaccurate, overly sensational, or misleading headline, then immediately stop doing it. Instead, seek headlines from social media to use. Stop writing unbelievable headlines in native ads, rather, use simple and effective headlines. Start using body copy to lead the reader to your coming next step. Last but not the least, stop encouraging accidental clicks by implementing ads in them that seem to be organic content.
One of the biggest benefits of content marketing is that you can create a social currency with the audience. Likewise, social currency is people sharing content that is related to the brand or the information of the brand as the part of their social lives.
It can provide practical values in content that could be immediately and effortlessly acted upon. And, people could gather content's benefits without much effort and money. In this, you also can have an emotional connection with the audience. Create content that can arise emotional retort with the audience, drive their decisions, change mindsets, prompt actions, and develop powerful brand credibility.
In following types you can use content marketing:
The advertising is basically what we pay for placements of ads. Similarly, If we pay for placement of invaluable and relevant content in the same format like third party site, it is native advertising. And, if the content is valuable and relevant and has been designed to attract a specific audience, and posted on your own platforms or other unpaid platforms, that is content marketing.
The native advertising and content marketing platforms have different potentials. In conclusion, we can say that it's not wrong to pay to promote your content as part of the content marketing strategy. If you don't have an audience that has subscribed to receive your content then you can use native advertising to reach an aimed audience. In the long run, to make long-term and focused goals, go with content marketing strategies.

Vodafone undertakes Europe's first TWDM-PON trialCreated August 5, 2015
Vodafone is conducting what is claimed to be Europe's first field trial of a time- and wavelength-division multiplexed passive optical network (TWDM-PON) using equipment from Alcatel-Lucent.
TWDM-PON is the next-generation access scheme after 10 Gigabit GPON (XG-PON1) and 10 Gigabit EPON. The Full Service Access Network (FSAN) Group and ITU are completing the standard that supports up to eight wavelengths, each capable of 10 Gigabit symmetrical or 10/ 2.5 Gigabit asymmetrical speeds.
The combination of time and wavelength division multiplexing allows TWDM-PON to support multiple PONs, each sharing its capacity among 16, 32, 64 or even 128 end points depending on the operator's chosen split ratio.
Operators can start with a 10 Gig PON using fixed-wavelength optics and move to TWDM-PON and tunable modules as their capacity needs grow. "You won't have to swap out legacy XG-PON1 hardware two years from now," said Stefaan Vanhastel, director of fixed access marketing at Alcatel-Lucent.
Alcatel-Lucent introduced last year a four-wavelength TWDM-PON based on a 4-port line-card, each port supporting a 10 Gigabit PON. The line card is used within Alcatel-Lucent's 7360 Intelligent Services Access Manager FX platform, and supports fixed and tunable SFP optical modules.
Alcatel-Lucent has been involved in 16 customer TWDM-PON trials overall, half in Asia Pacific and the rest split between North America and EMEA.
According to market research firm Ovum, there is greater operator interest in TWDM-PON than in XG-PON1.
TWDM-PON offers ample bandwidth – 40 Gigabit symmetrical in a four-wavelength implementation – and its wavelengths can be assigned to different aggregation tasks such as backhaul, business and residential. Operators can also pay for wavelengths as needed, while TWDM-PON allows wavelengths to be shared between operators as part of wholesale agreements.
First operator TWDM-PON pilot deployments will occur in 2016, says Alcatel-Lucent.

Daytona Housing Authority Director To Discuss Lack Of Affordable Housing
Daytona Beach, FL – The Daytona Beach Housing Authority's Executive Director, Anthony Woods, will speak at LPGA International on January 12 to discuss the need for affordable workforce housing in Volusia County.
The discussion is part of the Daytona Beach Chamber of Commerce's Eggs & Issue breakfast program. The program will address the rising cost of housing and why Volusia County is vulnerable since 57% of renters in Volusia County are "cost-burdened," or pay more money for rent and utilities than they can comfortably afford, according to the Daytona Beach Chamber of Commerce.
"Volusia County ranks 15th among the nation's 382 metro areas for the most burdened renters. Within Florida, Volusia County ranks second among nine regions, while having the lowest median income for renters (only $30,000 annually), with a median monthly housing cost of $963," says Chamber Government Relations Vice Chair Bart Leek.
The discussion will take place from 7:30 AM to 9 AM at the LPGA International Clubhouse at 1000 Champions Dr. in Daytona Beach. The cost for the program is $15 for Chamber of Commerce members, $20 on the day of the event, and $30 for non-members. You can RSVP for this event by going to DaytonaChamber.com/events. You can also contact Sr. VP of Government Relations Jim Cameron at 386-566-2140 with any questions.

The 'Marshmallow' metal stool features a cushion that looks good enough to eat with an aesthetic that likens it to the treat it shares a name with or a colorful whipped topping you might find on top of a cake.
The 'Marshmallow' stool is the design work of Paul Ketz and features a metal piping base that is crafted from a singular piece of pipe. This is accented with the soft, malleable aesthetic of the seat cushion that sits atop the frame which looks as though it is spilling over.
The 'Marshmallow' metal stool has been designed in a few different color options that make it look more like a festive spring dessert rather than a simple seating solution.

"We have a busy week ahead", said the middle manager opening another weekly team meeting. He continued: "A week full of exciting challenges and opportunities". We heard his words as neither remarkable or mundane until some weeks later when we realised all managers at the firm uttered the same words at every team meeting. Over time, repetition undermined their words' motivational impetus and blunted their import. Managerial speak had quickly curdled to cliché.
For the lazy or pressed for time, clichés can serve as a crutch.… Read the full article

Dr. Jo Marshall Set to Retire as SCC President and CEO
Dr. Jo Marshall, president and CEO of Somerset Community College since 2000, recently announced her plans to retire from the college effective June 30, 2018.
"My decision to retire has not been an easy one; however, I rest assured that SCC will continue to grow and flourish as it has done for the past 53 years," said Dr. Marshall. "My tenure at SCC started with a successful SACS accreditation for the college and was quickly followed by the unification of Somerset Community College, Somerset Technical College and Laurel Technical College in 2003."
Under Dr. Marshall's leadership, SCC added seven new buildings, started the SCC Foundation, which now boasts a student scholarship fund of nearly one million dollars, and received numerous awards. SCC was named a "Great College to Work For" by The Chronicle of Higher Education, a "Best Place to Work in Kentucky" for 10 years, a Military Friendly School and a Top 120 Community College by The Aspen Institute.
In 2011, SCC saw its largest enrollment numbers, topping out at more than 10,000 students. By working with area business and industry, Dr. Marshall led the efforts to enact several initiatives that focused on getting students into high-wage, high-demand careers by adding short-term certificates and diploma options. In addition, Dr. Marshall and her leadership team successfully navigated numerous transfer agreements with four-year colleges and universities throughout the state, allowing SCC students to transfer with ease to complete bachelor's degrees.
In addition to drastic increases in student enrollment, Dr. Marshall also effectively navigated enrollment declines as the economy improved, unemployment rates decreased and the college's budget was cut by state-ordered mandates.
"The past 18 years have not always been easy," Dr. Marshall said. "We have worked hard to meet the needs of the communities we serve. We have all creatively managed the changes that occur in higher education with great resound, and, most importantly, we have all remained compassionately committed to our students."
Dr. Marshall earned her doctoral degree from the University of Alabama in English/Administration of Higher Education. She served as vice president and dean of the college at Chattahoochee Valley Community College in Phoenix City, Alabama, until 2000 when she moved to Kentucky with her husband Scott to take the reins at SCC. Scott retired from the Alabama college system and taught economics for Eastern Kentucky University until his passing in 2011. The Marshalls have two children — daughter Kristin is a college faculty division chair, and son Scott Jr. is a physician. Marshall enjoys spending time with them and her four grandsons and one granddaughter.
"I've loved SCC and this community since I first called it home," said Dr. Marshall, who has been active in numerous community organizations and has served as a member of several local, regional and state boards. "I look forward to finishing out the academic year at SCC and watching the great things the college accomplishes in the future."
Dr. Marshall serves on the board of directors for The Center for Rural Development and the Southern Kentucky Economic Development Corporation (SKED). She is a past member of the Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital board of trustees. In 2011, the Somerset-Pulaski County Chamber of Commerce named her Business Woman of the Year, in 2015 she received the Master Musicians Festival Lifetime Achievement Award and in 2017, the Somerset Business and Professional Women's Club named her the Business Woman of the Year.
Dr. Marshall also serves as an international facilitator for the Phi Theta Kappa/Kellogg Foundation Leadership Development Project. Phi Theta Kappa is one of the largest and most prestigious honor societies serving community colleges. The inaugural Marshall Leadership Award, named in her honor, was presented in June 2013 at a Phi Theta Kappa convention in San Jose, California. The international award was created for Phi Theta Kappa advisors at community colleges to encourage their professional growth beyond the completion of professional degrees.
Dr. Jay Box, president of the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) will travel to SCC on January 10 to meet with the college's board of directors and faculty and staff. He plans to provide an overview of the presidential search process and will lay out a timeline for events that will follow.
"Dr. Marshall has been a passionate and inspirational leader at SCC," said Dr. Box. "It has been my pleasure to work with her. While it will be difficult to fill her shoes, we are committed to building on the example she set over the past 18 years as we search for a new president and CEO."

Airlines, booking brokers and the online travel and reserving companies (OTAs) are the three principal sources of obtaining the cheap air tickets, whether flying in the home or the worldwide circuit. I am deaf woman and I want the free airplane and lodge, too because I got invited from WNBA for girls nationwide basketball affiliation on april 21. i've to go away on april 20 and return house on april 22. i need 1,000 dollar.
Armed with a model new firstclass ticket for a brand new day, he comes back to the airport lounge, eats one other unbelievable free meal and after he finally ends up, yep, pushes his flight back once more. When you employ Hotwire to e-book a flight within the US, or between the US and Canada, you're assured to fly with one of many following airlines: Delta Air Lines, US Airways, United, Virgin America, or their codeshare partners. They was once ridicously costly previously but for those who look inside Brazil, you may get for instance a ticket Florianopolis-Rio for 60 bucks which is a superb enchancment. Hi, I would you please ship me a free flight ticket from Kuala Lampur to Dublin.
A pleased story for customers isn't essentially a contented story for the airline business, which bled an astounding $fifty one billion between 2001 and 2011 and lost money in each different 12 months since 1981. Recently used the one-manner method to buy flights in/out of EWR and saved $ninety seven.00 over the spherical-trip ticket price. They are cheaper and truthfully, what with airline wait times and what not, faster at times.
New York (JFK, NYC, EWR), Washington (DCA, WAS, IAD), Boston (BOS), Chicago (CHI, ORD), San Francisco (SFO), Los Angeles (LAX), Philadelphia (PHL), and so on. So if you're planning to ebook a ticket examine the big airports within the surrounding space as a result of even if it takes a bit extra travel time going to this sure airport it could actually make your ticket quite a bit cheaper. This is an article about how you can get free airplane tickets by using the concepts introduced. Even then, different folks may have stepped ahead and asked to be on the checklist of passengers desirous to be booted in exchange for a free plane ticket voucher.
The identical cause that you won't be getting free tickets is identical reason that you just want them in the first place: You can't even be bothered to assume, work, do one thing about your scenario. If you fly from a hub to a different hub tickets often are quite a bit cheaper than flying from a spoke to a spoke.

So my mother told me that she and my dad have begun to question their faith and the morality of the god of their faith in particular. She said they had read some passages in church that they found disturbing and I thought this was a very good thing. I enouraged her to look into it and find out what it was that bothered her most, So she and dad started reading the entirety of the bible, a few chapters a day over their dinners. I thought that I would offer myself in assistance and try to let them see by example that not believing doesn't negate the possibility of living happily.
So the next time I was over I offered to join them in their reading and discussion. Come to find out they're reading the Appologetic's Study Bible.
If you have not seen this book it is filled with side articles and notations containing every logical fallacy imaginable in an effort to try to make sense of the passages that give people problems with their faith. Needless to say I was appalled to see that these arguments and fallacies were coaxing my parents back into quiescence. When I attempted to point this out it became a big argument and my parents got fairly upset and I went home with no idea where to go next.
Please advise! What do I do so as not to seem as though I am actively trying to destroy their faith?
Views: 347
Wow I have to say your lucky that your parents are even questioning and have a interpersonal morality not destroyed by the cult mentality. My family members are totally beyond the veil. They are certain that god - and their version of god, exists, and devote their lives to trying to get other people to see 'the truth' (i.e baseless lies.)
About what you can do... first get them to read a atheist commentary on the bible. Then explain to them how many other people believe just like they believe (with faith) other gods, other religions, other philosophies. Explain to them how looking at the world through the lens of single book perpetuates turmoil and how all religion is fundamentally the same. Explain how religion has been used as the 'opiate' of the masses throughout history to further the elitist agendas of various kings. Have them read the Koran, The Book of Mormon, The Book of Enoch, The Mahabharata, The Vedas, The Tao, The Tibetan & Egyptian book of the dead, the Taoist book of changes... ect. Have them watch the series Ancient Aliens from history channel....
Have them Visit the sites below:
Hope this helps Alli
Oh are you in anyway related to this man Herbert_W._Armstrong? I was unfortunate enough to have a doctrine similar to his shoved down my throat by my devote parents.
Peace & Love, hope we find it ^^
Wow thanks very much for the linkage. I will surely use that.
Yes I am very lucky in that my parents are very humanistic and secular in their worldviews. That however makes their faith even that much harder for them to doubt because they can fit it into any container they build for it. which in turn makes it that much harder for them to understand my own unbelief. Somehow being their child means that I should share their faith.
Oh and as far as I know I'm in no way related to Herbert Armstrong. ;) At least I hope not. My Grandfather had three or four brothers and I never met them.
I'd encourage you to also examine the apologetics offered by Christians in refutation of sites like the Skeptics Annotated Bible, so you'll be familiar with common defenses of the arguments you are making and will be ready if your parents try to use those apologetic arguments.
Also keep in mind that not all of the arguments in the Skeptics Annotated Bible are valid. Even secular atheist historians will say that some of the arguments are taken out of context or are obvious metaphors. In other words, don't take these sites as gospel (pun intended).
Here is an apologetics site that tries to refute the claims in the Skeptics Annotated Bible:
Thanks very much Brandon for the links. They were great and I'll be using them.
Matt, thanks so much. I really want to make sure I don't overstep into an argument that will just shut down the conversation for good. I wanted to keep the channel of communication open and your suggestions seem excellent.
Thanks again!
Thanks for asking Vangelis. Actually I've been completely overloaded with class stuff lately and haven;t been over to see them much and when I have it hasn't come up. I'm kind of waiting for the topic to arise before addressing it so as not to seem threatening.
The very fact that such a version of the Bible exists is it's own argument for how riddled the Bible is with nonsense. If it made sense you wouldn't need to spend so much time and effort "apologizing" for it. I'm familiar with what you are talking about and it is a time honored practice of dealing with the "difficult" texts.
After all, if it is the Word of God it all has to be consistent and make sense. The problem is that it doesn't and you have to turn yourself inside out to make it so.
