Since the preseason began last week I have stated many times here that I was not concerned at all that the Thrashers have failed to produce wins. These games don't count in the standings, give players a chance to work out the offseason kinks and exist to provide the coaching staff a chance to look at players during pseudo-game like conditions. They then take that information to help them evaluate who should be on the final roster and which players should be paired up with each other.
Whether a team goes 0-4 or 4-0 matters little after this weekend when each team sets their meters back to 0-0-0 to start the regular season.
However, all that being said, I will admit that these last two games of the exhibition season will carry just a little more weight with me than the previous ones. True, they count just as much as the other four…zero…but I've always thought the last couple preseason games mean a little more than the first few.
My reasons are simple. Last week we saw many players on the ice that we know would not be around Thrasherville past last weekend. They were getting their time in during training camp but once Craig Ramsay and his coaching staff were satisfied with what they saw, off they went to the AHL Chicago Wolves or elsewhere.
But now, the team that'll be iced this afternoon in Carolina and tomorrow evening in Columbus will resemble more of a regular season lineup than before. The roster has been paired down to the point where only a few players are competing for a couple of open spots. That, plus those remaining have played with each other before and certain amount of "gelling" should have taken place. As such, they need to find a way to work out a W or two as they set their sights on the opening of the 2010-11 NHL campaign.
Don't get me wrong, no one is going to have to pull me back off a ledge if they don't win at least one of the two games, but it sure would be nice to see this group show they can grind out a victory…preseason or not.
So what have we learned so far after two weeks of training camp and four make believe games? Well for one, it sure looks like Freddy "The Fly" Pettersson will be in Atlanta this time next week when the Thrashers open up against the Washington Capitals. And given what Ramsay had to say about last June's first round draft pick, it seems like Alex Burmistrov could be as well. Even if it's just for a few games until Jim Slater's mystery wrist ailment heals.
Anthony Steward and Nigel Dawes have each performed well so far. They'll be making their last push to make the final cut.
Of all the Chicago boys that came this way last summer, the one who has impressed me most in Ben Eager. He's netted a pair of goals and is just plain nasty in front of the opponent's net. Love having this guy on the team.
Personally, I'm not as concerned about Dustin Byfuglien playing defense as I was a few weeks back. He's looked good on the blueline thus far and brings a brand of toughness that has been lacking in our defensive corps for some time now. Correct me if I'm wrong, but has a goal been scored on the Thrashers when he's been on the ice? I don't think so.
Ron Hainsey has looked in mid-season form…unfortunately its mid-PREseason form.
Boris Valabik hasn't played in a game since the exhibition season opener, and that's just fine with me. Honestly, there is too much talent on the blueline now…especially given the way Freddy Meyer has performed…for him to be on the ice opening night.
Speaking of the defense, I think it's safe to assume it should be better than what we've witnessed here in many, many moons. The 30 shots on goal that were allowed last Wednesday were the most of the preseason. In the recent past, we've greeted 30 SA/G almost as a blessing.
That, plus there is a certain level of comfort that comes with having Chris Mason between the pipes. If he just has a "normal" Mason-type season and the defense allows 30 shots per game or less, I don't think the playoffs are out of the question.
As for Ondrej Pavelec…well, he's still Ondrej Pavelec. You could get a great game from him or you might get a very in-good one. Ya just don't know. But I'm hoping that another year in the NHL without the pressure of being forced into the number-one role will do him a world of good. That plus having a goalie coach…er, uh, goalie consultant, I mean.
But then there's the goal production worries about this team. This is what has most Thrashers fans feeling a little queasy at times. They'll no longer have a 50+ goal scorer to rely upon to get them through. Instead this team will look to a number of players to consistently put the put in the net.
Dependable goaltending, respectable defensive play and a "cross your fingers" offense…all are certainly a different concept that what we're used to here.
Regardless, these next couple of days is all that's left to work out whatever needs to be worked out to prepare for next Friday. And while they will count just as much, or little, when preseason is over…it's be nice to see if they can iron out the "how to win a game" kink before they do start counting.

Not sure Freddy will make the team!
A note: the current Thrashers player with the most recent ha trick is Andrew Ladd. He potted a trio against Detroit March 7, 2010. The Blackhawks lost!
So far, here are the 12 predictions
Kane Columbus 11/4/10
Joe Friday
Ladd Florida 11/17/10
Spud Webb
Little Florida 11/17/10
five hole
Bergfors, Minnesota 11/11/10

Ranallo'ed! … just so my prediction counts
I've been a perennial optimist when if comes to the Thrash (baaah), but I dunno, I have a bad feeling that we are going to have a number of things go in the toilet this season.
I'm convinced we are doing the right thing, building with gritty, character players, but I predict the lack of scoring will be diluted even more with some key injuries, etc. and it will take a huge toll. In the end, the projected scoring from Little, Bergy, and Kane turns woeful.
Oh how I hope I'm wrong.
79 Points (35-38-9) 4th and 12th

Add Thorburn as the 14th forward, Buff instead of Zubarev and (gulp!) Hainsey instead of Kulda and that's the opening night roster.
Would management have the guts to keep Kulda over Hainsey?

A win would be nice. Very nice. I agree about Boris, the one time I saw him in action it was as if he was back to his first season with the Thrashers. Not impressive, let's just say. Ben Eager has impressed me also, as has Pettersen (his habit of tucking his jersey in so that his pads are on the outside irks my Canadian husband, but at least it helps me identify him without looking at the program, and it shows individuality). I'm still to be sold on Chris Mason, but Pavelec has a long way to go yet, so Mason is it. (I miss calling Moooooooooose after a save, but life moves on).
We have said the same thing at the end of every season since the days of Bob Hartley, 'one more year' hoping to see a winning team and, dare I say it, a play-off berth, and we did it again last April, but this might just be it–the last of the 'one more years'. Ten plus years as season ticket holders needs some reward from the ice. Here's hoping this is THE 'one more year'.

Lovely little Vent that the AJC choose to display on the Sports front web page, ain't it? I just get so very, very, very tired of people bashing a sport that their feeble little brains apparently can't comprehend. (Drop the puck already!!!)
That said, Bill, gotta agree that this team needs to win at least one of these games. Sure it's preseason, but players want to win no matter what the circumstances and need to get into the habit of winning. Confidence is contagious.

Ron Hainsey has looked in mid-season form…unfortunately its mid-PREseason form.
Now, I have to admit that so far I haven't seen a preseason game. Right now I'm stuck in cow country, far far away from Atlanta. However, based on what I've been reading, shouldn't this be "unfortunately its offseason form"?

I will be the first to admit the whole Buff on D thing had me upset and none to happy given what we saw in the playoffs from him. But I find myself intrigued now. What will it be like to have a defenseman of his size out there looking to torpedo people, and has the added bonus of being able to help on the O side of things too. Will he be that nasty, better keep your head up or else dman that you HATE to see other teams have? I don't know, but if he can, and if Bogosian has bulked up and brings the game we think he is capapble of……well then I wouldn't mind that at all. Who knows though, what the future holds around here.
October 1st, 2010

If Buff on D keeps Doris in the the booth or Chicago, I'm all for it.

Matt, don't pay attention to the Sports Vent idiots-they can't help themselves.
October 1st, 2010
12:21 pm
That might be one of the most insightful posts I have read in awhile. Intrigued is a great way to put the Byfuglien "experiment" because he could become a great defender and punishing hitter. My problem with it is that I don't want to see him skating out of position, a la Exelby, looking for a big hit and leaving his defensive partner vulnerable. Seen it too often around here. I think Bogo will be fine with another year of experience under his belt and it's tough to remember that he's only 20. Who knows what the future holds is right on the money. I think 99 percent of us want to buy in, but being a skeptic at heart I need to see proof.
I love the Ramsay hire. I like Dudley too, but as Sage has so aptly put it many times, is he really getting all he needs from ownership and his predecessor to do what he really wants and needs to do. I didn't like the Modin signing and will definitely say under in the 14/56 pool. I really liked the Dawes signing but it remains to be seen if I am right about him. I see Lombardi in Nashville and I'm envious. I see the Hornqvist 3-year deal in Nashville and I am bewildered by his Swedish counterpart Bergfors here in Atlanta and why he was signed for one year and likely will go to arbitration.
I liked bringing in Ladd, Eager, Sopel and Buf, but realistically I look at the fact they all are under a one-year deal. Yes, we hold Ladd and Buf's RFA rights for longer than this year, but then I wonder if Eager and Sopel will be around longer than this season. To me if you make a big deal, you want to sign the guys you acquired for a longer term, to ensure you didn't ship a first rounder and Morin off for just two guys. That's shortsighted in my opinion. Same goes with the Bergfors deal, yes, you have Oduya and Cormier soon, but let them develop here together.
I'm willing to put the past behind, but am continually reminded about it because of the poor attendance. You couldn't get a good poker game going in the section where I sit! I don't like the in-game promotions and videos (what am I 10 yrs old?) and I would love to get some energy in the building on a nightly, not sporadic basis. It will not only help the team, but the atmosphere for the fans too. I'm sure as many say that winning will cure a lot of these ills, but I'm not sold on the fact that this team can win just yet.
They took veterans like Afinogenov, Reasoner, Kovalchuk and Kubina (don't forget coach extraordinaire Steve Weeks) off the roster from last season. Yes, the pieces they got in return could be very valuable, if they stick around, in the very near future, I just don't think this is the year to fully expect a huge improvement in points. Yes, the play and competitiveness should be much improved, but others in the Eastern Conference improved themselves on paper too. I hope Rammer can pull it off, but I have my doubts as it concerns the current season.
I hope I am wrong…80 points • 3rd in the SE • 11th overall

12:26 pm
Rawhide interesting you say "Dependable goaltending, respectable defensive play and a "cross your fingers" offense" is new here, which I agree with. I seem to recall Ramsay mentioning at the Season Preview Event last week 'the trap' teams use, and how we will not play boring hockey. If it's a cross your fingers offense, then while it may not be boring, it may be very rare we get to cheer. I thought the team has looked progressively better from game to game – let's hope it continues.

So Sage, what are you going to do for fun when the Thrashers move to insert name of Canadian city here after we boycott all things Thrashers?
I'm as frustrated with the state of the Thrashers as anyone else but I'm a hockey fan first and foremost. I'd rather see 'bad' NHL hockey than no NHL hockey at all.

Bill, It's been awhile for me, but a win or two would be a nice trend setter for the start of the season.

Pettersson will make the team. No reason not to carry 14 fwds if necc as it does Dawes, nor Freddy any good to play in the AHL. They both can be effective players at this level. Maybe not every nite but that's why you carry 14 fwds and 7 D.

October 1st, 2010

I'll take boring, hard-hitting, winning hockey any day! I wouldn't mind following the NJD recipe for success…the trap tends to make opponents very frustrated as they cannot operate in the neutral zone to mount an effective attack…thus leading to mistakes and stupid decisions – counterattack – and score. If we win bunches of games 2-1 or 3-2…hell, a win is a win. Teams that play the trap tend to be very smart, opportunistic and have a "team first" mentality.
Thrashers are ready to break out. I still think they miss the playoffs this year, but I have more optimism for the future…the moves in the front office remind me of when the Braves brought in Schuerholz and put Cox in the dugout where he belongs…or the Falcons taking personnel moves away from McKay and giving it to people like Smith and Dimitroff.

I was contacted by my hiring manager for a position as a result of a resume drop off at career fair at my university. I was a Computer Engineer who wanted to work on digital hardware (specifically Computer Architecture) but I had strong software skills as well. I had a single phone screen interview in which I was asked basic software questions. From that, I was brought on-site in Santa Clara facing 4 interviewers. I had one interview where I was quizzed on basic computer architecture; one interview focused solely on software design principles (no coding problems however); one general interview to feel out my college curriculum experience; one final interview to feel out my ambitions and desires in regards to work. After that, I spoke with the hiring manager who just wanted to get a feel or my personality. In all, it was a very easy interview for me because I was not grilled hard in any one technical area.Interview Questions
Negotiation DetailsI received a very good offer from the HR departnebt compared to some other companies I interviewed with. They explained the offer was a standard one for my grade level (Masters = Grade Level 5 @ Intel) that was not negotiable. There was a sizable moving bonus as well.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks - interviewed at Intel Corporation in November 2011.Interview Details
Initial contact: got a call from a recruiter likely because of contacts I already have in the company. Again this highlights the importance of keeping in touch with past coworkers.
Phone screen - about a 45 min phone interview primarily to get some idea on the extent of my projects role in terms of complexity and my ability to articulate past product life cycles.
On site interview - flew to my on site interview since the group is not in Santa Clara. The questions are mostly situational and behavioral in nature. I knew that this group had limited consumer product development experience so I thought that the key to getting an offer was to relate past risks, issues & challenges and how I dealt and managed them to get a product out. This was a whole day one on one interviews with other program managers, one manager and an architect. There were no technical questions. I did make sure to highlight that I had SW dev experience as a programmer, tech lead and manager in previous companies.
Hiring process: I received the offer within the week after one on site interview. I spoke with the recruiter regarding the compensation. The base salary was a lateral move from another high tech company but the the profit sharing/company bonus was better. I accepted the offer after talking to my contacts in the company. I have to say that boring team was very efficient and very accessible.Interview Questions

Preferred ETFs generate robust yields
Investors seeking solid income are finding preferred stock ETFs attractive.
By Tom Lydon, ETF Trends
Preferred stock exchange traded funds held up during the Cyprus brouhaha, but most investors are more interested in the investment's ability to generate robust yields.
The iShares S&P US Preferred Stock Index Fund (PFF), which comes with a 5.52% 30-day SEC yield and 0.48% expense ratio, gained 0.2% over the past week, while the S&P 500 index remained unchanged.
A preferred stock is a blended security, made up of leveraged companies. The stock has bond characteristics -- in that they pay a fixed income regularly and do not prosper from the earnings growth of the subject company. Preferred stocks trade on an exchange, just like any other security.
On the securities pecking order, preferred stocks are senior to common stock but junior to corporate bonds. Shareholders have no voting rights.
"Preferred stock is a good diversifier, with low correlations to other income-generating asset classes like REITs, MLPs, corporate bonds, TIPs, and popular income ETFs," according to Morningstar analyst Abby Woodham.
Nevertheless, Woodham warns preferred stocks come with specific risks, such as their heavy exposure to financials, regulation changes and rising interest rates.
Moreover, the tax treatment on the securities vary. Looking at PFF, Woodham notes that the "dividends preserve the tax treatment of the underlying securities' dividends, which has resulted in its investors usually paying qualified rates on about 50% of dividends, ordinary income on the other half, and capital gains on sale of PFF."
Other preferred ETFs include:
- PowerShares Preferred Portfolio (PGX): 6.38% 30-day SEC yield; 0.5% expense ratio
- PowerShares Financial Preferred Portfolio (PGF): 6.43% 30-day SEC yield; 0.66% expense ratio
- SPDR Wells Fargo Preferred Stock ETF (PSK): 5.23% 30-day SEC yield; 0.45% expense ratio
- Market Vectors Preferred Securities ex Financials ETF (PFXF): 6.14% 30-day SEC yield; 0.40% expense ratio
- iShares International Preferred Stock ETF (IPFF): 2.93% 30-day SEC yield; 0.55% expense ratio
- First Trust Preferred Securities and Income Fund (FPE): launched on February 11, 2013; 0.85% expense ratio
- Global X SuperIncome Preferred ETF (SPFF): 6.91% 30-day SEC yield; 0.58% expense ratio
- Global X Canada Preferred ETF (CNPF): 3.38% 30-day SEC yield; 0.58% expense ratio

Revision as of 11:27, 31 October 2013
This tutorial will get you started with using Orion, and provides a step by step walk-through of some of the core functionality.
Getting Orion
You have two choices to get started with Orion. The first is to create an account on the public server at OrionHub. To do this, visit OrionHub, click Create a new account and enter your information. An email will be sent to confirm your address. Once confirmed, return to OrionHub and log in.
The second method to get started is to download a standalone version of the server. For instructions, see Install Orion on Localhost.
Once you have successfully set up an account, you can proceed to the next step.
Logging into Orion
When you attempt to access a page that requires logging in, you'll be redirected to the Login Page and prompted for credentials.
On your first visit to the login page, you can sign in using either of these ways:
- Sign in using the username and password of your Orion account. Main Pages > Search link will bring up the global search page. It will search all the files in your workspace.
- In the pages that focus on a single directory (for example, the Editor page), clicking Navigation Menu > Related Links > Scope Search will bring up a search page that's scoped to the current directory. Only files under the selected directory will be searched.
- You can also access the scoped directory search by selecting any directory in the file navigator and going to Actions menu (gear menu) > Scope Search.
Once the Search page is loaded, you can start to search on all criteria available on the left hand side of the page. Search results are displayed on the right-hand side.
Finding a file by name
The Find File Named dialog can be opened by pressing Ctrl+Shift+F on your keyboard. This dialog lets you search for a file by name. Simple wildcard characters are supported.
Searching inside the editor
You can also perform a global search on a highlighted phrase from inside the editor using the Ctrl + H shortcut. You can also type other keywords to search the file contents on-the-fly.
A nice side effect of editing source code in browser pages is being able to use browser mechanisms, such as the history, to quickly find files. If you find yourself working in the same handful of files, opening a new browser tab and typing in the filename will quickly get you there.
Working with git
We intend to provide many different kinds of plug-ins for integrating Orion into open source and proprietary version control systems. Our first example in this area is a UI for working with Git repositories. For files and folders that are managed in a Git repository, you will see a menu allowing you to navigate to various Git views dealing with the file or folder:
The Related pages menu will also give you contextually appropriate links to various Git pages, including the top-level of your Git repository.
The Git Status page shows you all the files in your git repository that have changed, and allows you to stage, unstage, and commit changes. You can multi-select files to stage/unstage/commit using shift or ctrl.
Click the twistie arrow next to a changed file to show a comparison of what changed in the file.
If you prefer, you can view the changes in a side-by-side comparison:
The Git Status page shows also a list of recent commits on the active branch. You may open the Git Log page by clicking the Complete Log button and see the full list of commits on that branch. Click on a commit in the log page to open the Git Commit page for complete information about that commit.
You can also open the Compare page for each change in the selected commit.
Launching your project as a website
Orion can create "sites" for testing an application developed with Orion as a stand-alone website. Click the Sites link on the Orion toolbar. This takes you to the Sites page, where you can create, edit, delete, or launch web sites for testing. Sites will be launched either as a sub-domain of the Orion server, or at an alternate IP address when running the server locally.
Note that if you are running your own server, and you wish to set up hosting on a sub-domain, a different IP address, or if you're running Mac OS X, you'll have to supply some more information to the Orion server. See Configuring virtual host names for more detail.
You create a site by clicking the Create Site button and supplying a name for your site. Your new site will appear and you should fill in the path mappings for your project. In this example the "My Work" project has an index.html in the root so just a basic path is required to mount that project at the root. Once done that step you select "Save". You have the option of starting the server from this page or refreshing the list of sites page to see your new site.
Assuming you are at the sites page you can click the Start button to start the site. The result will be similar to the following image, showing the site running and the URL showing where the site can be accessed.
Upon visiting the site's URL, success! — We see the listing of the "My Work" directory we added.
Now browse to index.html:
At this point, we can do incremental development by using the Orion editor to change the files in our "My Work" folder, and then simply reloading the site page to see the changes.
Extending Orion
Orion allows developers to build plug-ins that add behavior to Orion pages. Let's learn about plug-ins by taking a look at a simple plug-in which extends the navigator.
To see what plug-ins are installed in your Orion system, open the Settings page from the Options menu at the top right of the Orion banner (next to the user name). Then click the Plugins category on the left-hand side of the screen.
The Plugins page shows what plug-ins you have installed, and allows you to install, reload, or remove plugins. You can see that several plugins that provide Orion functionality, such as file management, user management, Git, JSLint, are already installed. Plugins extend Orion by implementing new behaviors, or extensions to the system. Places where "extensions" may be contributed are often called extension points.
The orion.navigate.command extension point allows plug-ins to contribute commands that act upon files and folders in the navigator. These commands will be placed in the Actions menu. Each contributed command can specify how many and what types of files it can work with.
A sample plug-in that demonstrates the different kinds of commands you can contribute is located at http://orionhub.org/plugins/sampleCommandsPlugin.html. On the Plugins page, you can click on Install and paste or type this URL into the text area and press Submit. When you reload the Navigator page, you will see new commands in the item action menu.
The "Bulk item command" can act on more than one item, so it will appear in the Actions menu when you select more than one item in the navigator.
Learning more
More information about plug-ins and extensions can be found in the architecture section in the Orion Developer Guide. See sampleCommandsPlugin.html for the source code.

MOUNT VERNON, S.D. (AP) — Neighbors, friends and family showed up this week to help the father of Minnesota Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway.
Alan Greenway, of Mount Vernon, has been fighting leukemia since early last year, though it's in remission.
He's had to make regular trips to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., for therapy, making it impossible to keep up with chores on the farm.
So to ease the stress of harvest, volunteers gathered this week to get about 500 acres of soybeans out of the field.
The Daily Republic (http://bit.ly/GB6T5K ) says it took about 30 people roughly five hours to harvest five bean fields.
Chad Greenway says the support is great and all that help makes it easier on his family.

Correction of: http://www.i-jmr.org/2012/2/e17/
(Interact J Med Res 2012;1(2):e19)
In the recent paper by Öhlund SE et al. [Improving Interoperability in ePrescribing, Interact J Med Res 2012;1(2):e17], the percentage of prescriptions in the post-NEF (national ePrescription format) sample with errors should be 0.9% (13,735/1,479,588), rather than 0.009%. The change is minor and does not affect the overall results and conclusions of the paper. The percentage was corrected in 3 places in the paper: 1) Abstract/Results: "In the post-NEF sample, only 0.9% of the prescriptions had errors"; 2) Results/Errors per Prescription and Prescription Set: "The percentage of post-NEF prescription sets with at least one error was 0.9% (13,735/1,479,588)"; 3) Table 7 forth row: "Prescription sets with error, % 98.6 0.9". The online version on i-JMR was corrected on November 29, 2011, one week after publication, before submission to PubMed Central, Medline, or other databases.

Former Miami Police Chief Miguel Exposito's case to be heard in court
By David Ovalle
Ousted Miami Police Chief Miguel Exposito, seeking to get his job back, will get his day in court Thursday.
A panel of three Miami-Dade circuit judges will hear Exposito's argument that the Miami City Commission wrongly fired him in September.
During his tenure, Exposito picked very public battles with elected officials and Mayor Tomás Regalado, whom he accused of being in bed with owners of video gaming machines that his department had targeted for seizure.
In March, three judges denied a move by city attorneys to throw out the appeal because Exposito had been scheduled to retire anyway when he was terminated.
Despite his ouster, Exposito, former Maj. Al Alvarez and Exposito's personal attorney Ruben Chavez sat in on a civil hearing last week between the city and the video machine owners.
The owners have sued the city seeking return of more than 100 machines seized by Exposito's police officers. Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Diane Ward refused to throw out the suit, and now an evidentiary hearing will be scheduled.

Primary Appointment
- Associate Professor, Biomedical Engineering
- Phone: 8049820211
- Email: email@example.com
- Website: http://www.medicine.virginia.edu/clinical/departments/radiology/research/home.html
Research Interest(s)
Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Coronary Heart Disease; Myocardial Function; Myocardial Perfusion
Research Description
The general goal of my lab is to develop MRI techniques for assessing the structure, function, and perfusion of the cardiovascular system, particularly in the setting of coronary heart disease. Recent projects have included developing echo-planar MRI methods for imaging myocardial perfusion throughout the entire heart and developing displacement-encoded MRI for high-resolution measurements of intramyocardial motion. We have access to state-of-the-art whole body 1.5T scanners for human imaging studies and to a high-field 4.7T MRI scanner for imaging small animals, particularly mice. Through collaborations with cardiologists and molecular biologists, our novel MRI methods are applied to studies involving both clinical cardiology and basic cardiovascular science.
Current Projects: Imaging myocardial mechanics with Cine DENSE (Displacement Encoding with Stimulated Echoes)
MRI, including pulse sequence development and improving image analysis methods. MRI in mouse models of cardiovascular disease.
Some projects include 3D Cine DENSE in mice, MRI of macrophage infiltration in myocardial infarction, using arterial spin labeling and first-pass MRI to quantify myocardial perfusion, T2-weighted imaging of myocardial edema, and 3D phase contrast MRI of aortic blood flow and wall shear stress, MRI of pancreatic beta cells using manganese and other targeted contrast agents as well as quantitation through MR relaxometry and multi-compartment models.

Our acclaimed Child Minder course helps anybody who wants to work in the childcare sector to gain an accreditation that is recognised throughout the industry. Better still, this fantastic course requires no previous experience, just a passion for the subject!
More and more women are returning to work after having children, and this fact, coupled with the U.K.'s culture of long working hours have led to a huge increase in the need for childcare. Since the ECM initiative was introduced in 2002, there has been an increasing drive for anybody involved with caring for children to get recognised professional training.
A glance at the titles of the individual modules (click the 'Course Outline' tab above) shows you just what this fantastic course is about. It covers all of the developmental needs of children in some detail, including their physical needs such as the types of food that are best for them (and nutritional guidelines), the benefits of adequate rest and sleep, learning through play and common childhood illnesses. It addresses their psychological needs too – love, security, positive reinforcement of behaviour – and education.
The course goes on to explore issues surrounding behaviour management, child abuse and the legal framework, and your roles and responsibilities as a care provider, counsellor or parent. It also discusses and informs on the complexities of the various agencies and legislative frameworks in place to protect children. Developing positive working relationships, and the subtleties of communicating with children are also covered.
The final section addresses the business aspects of working as a childminder, including deeper explanation of the legal responsibilities mentioned earlier, the need for registration with appropriate authorities and becoming a member of the NCMA (National Child Minding Association). Health and safety issues, drawing up contracts and agreements, and such matters as how to determine the number of children you can care for in various situations, are dealt with to complete the package
Be aware that whatever you intend to do in the childcare working environment, there are a few additional mandatory elements of training you will need to undertake, no matter who you study or train with. These are laid down by legislation and statute, so are not optional.
However, they are neither difficult nor expensive:
The course itself fulfills the main criteria, that for delivering a recognised introductory syllabus
In addition you will need to undertake a First Aid qualification, which takes only one day and can be done with St John's Ambulance Brigade very cheaply and easily
You will also need to register with Ofsted, and they may need to conduct a home visit if you are providing childcare facilities in your own home. That's it!
One of the key benefits of studying Child Minding with My Distance Learning College is that we deliver the entire package of course materials in a single dispatch. This enables our students to get a real feel for the overall structure and content of the course, and chart their progress much more effectively.
The modular method of delivery favoured by other providers breaks up and interrupts the learning process. But with My Distance Learning College, because you have all the materials available from the outset, you can move faster through sections you are more confident with, and take more time over the deeper ideas that need more thought and understanding.

People have always told me that travel reading is where e-readers really shine, and that taking an e-reader with me on a trip would be the ultimate scale-tipper to make me favor the devices. I actually found the opposite to be true.
A) The most boring part of flying is taxiing around and waiting to take off. Once the plane is in the air, I have an unprecedented view of the world to gawk at. But during take-off and landing--when I really want to read--I can't turn the kindle on.
B) Perhaps this is less of an issue for e-ink screens, but I like to spend my away time beachside or poolside underneath that bright orb in the sky that New England sorely lacks. Reading the Kindle Fire in such a setting is less irritating than rubbing sand in your eyes, at least.
C) Speaking of, a book does not care if you get sand on it.
D) The same one-touch-to-purchase-things feature that makes the KFire so convenient (and dangerous!) to have at home makes me extremely paranoid to leave it out in public, even if it I do have it password locked. Not to mention its inherent value. Leaving it with the towel pile while going for a quick swim is the very definition of paranoia.
I still like my Kindle Fire, and it has really turned me on to the idea of tablet computing (a post for another time). But I am still very unconvinced in the e-reader's ultimate convenience for travel reading. One or three substantial paperback books don't take up that much space...and given that Kerry managed to cram ten volumes of manga into her carry-on and briefcase on top of everything else she took to San Diego (including a laptop and an ipad), I'm not convinced space is that much of a concern in the first place. If it is for you, watch this slide-show and thank me later.
tl;dr: Paperback books can be read anytime and anywhere, don't take up that much space, and cost so little that I don't mind if they get destroyed or lost. Yay woot books.
