The failure of Punjab government to keep its promise of paying subsidy amount in lieu of free power being given to farmers has forced the Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd (PSPCL) to burden itself with a Rs1,000-crore loan in the last one-and-half months to pay salaries and meet other day-to-day expenses.
The SAD-BJP coalition government has been providing free power to the agriculture sector and had promised to compensate the PSPCL for this.
As per Power Regulator Tariff order for 2015-16, the state government was to pay a subsidy amount of Rs 5,599 crore to the PSPCL. This payment was to be made in advance monthly instalments, thus as per agreement, Punjab had to clear the full subsidy amount for 2015-16 by March 1.
As per the latest subsidy statement of the PSPCL, the actual subsidy payment up to March 1, 2016, stood at Rs4,400 crore, which meant the state government was yet to pay Rs 1,200 crore to the power corporation.
Due to non-payment of subsidy amount, the power corporation was forced to take loan as it was short of working Capital. "The power corporation has taken a loan of Rs 500 crore in February and Rs 500 crore in the first week of March to clear salaries. However, our finances are still in a mess and need more money immediately to clear bills," said an official from PSPCL management, requesting anonymity.
The official said if the government didn't clear pending subsidy bills soon, the PSPCL would have to take more loans. "The govt pays subsidy amount after much delay and then PSPCL has to take loans, upon which it pays tax. It is double whammy for us," said the official.
Pertinently, the government had in writing committed itself to timely payment of the subsidy payment, and it was the sole basis that PSERC had incorporated free supply provision in its order and finalised the tariff for 2015-16.
In addition, the state government had signed a pact with the Union power ministry under the Uday scheme under which it was supposed to take care of debt of the PSPCL. However, the power corporation has not even been paid subsidy amount of Rs 1,200 crore by the state government.
The PSPCL engineers had objected to the delay in paying subsidy amount on government's part. As per earlier practices, the Punjab government used to adjust Rs 1,000 crore as 'return of equity' in the PSPCL in lieu of free power.
PSPCL director finance Subhash Arora said they had taken up the issue with the Punjab government and were hoping that funds would be released soon.

I stopped receiving emails on my 8530 and after a complete restore, I started receiving emails for only one email addresses, but not the other two I use. Since I've done a complete restore, I'm not sure what else I can do. Any suggestions?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS configuration for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!
Thanks! I'm getting email now, but now if I delete a message on my BB, it doesn't delete it within my email account. I have to go to my computer and delete it there as well. Any ideas for that? (I use Yahoo email.)

"It would be a question of the utmost public concern if an undercover officer were effectively permitted to operate without justification, authorisation or oversight in Ireland."
A gas flaring event is the burning off of flammable gas released by pressure relief valves as a protection and safety measure during unplanned over-pressuring of plant equipment.
The attached authentic Shell document lists over 260 gas flaring events that have already taken place at the new Bellanaboy Bridge Gas Terminal.
It is noticeable that the unplanned events appear to be increasing, rather than declining e.g. 58 gas flaring events were recorded in just 9 days in January 2016.
Gas flaring presents an environmental hazard.
Extract from Wikipedia article "Gas flare"
Improperly operated flares may emit methane and other volatile organic compounds as well as sulfur dioxide and other sulfur compounds, which are known to exacerbate asthma and other respiratory problems. Other emissions from improperly operated flares may include, aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylenes) and benzapyrene, which are known to be carcinogenic.
Flaring can affect wildlife by attracting birds and insects to the flame. Approximately 7,500 migrating songbirds were attracted to and killed by the flare at the liquefied natural gas terminal in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada on September 13, 2013.
How is the local population to judge if the unplanned flaring is properly or improperly controlled? Shell does not have a reputation for competence, honesty, or transparency. Ask the US Coastguard.
"Gas flaring is a visual reminder that we are wastefully sending CO2 into the atmosphere," said World Bank President Jim Yong Kim
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. "Reducing gas flaring can make a significant contribution towards mitigating climate change."

Campaigns of the Norman Conquest Paperback
by Matthew Bennett
Part of the Essential Histories series
An introduction to the Norman Conquest, an event which would link the English kingdom with Europe, especially France, for 500 years.
It completely changed the nation's aristocracy, church and administration, bringing in a new language and cultural influences.
This was reflected in art and architecture too, especially military architecture and the castle.
The Conquest has since been of enduring political significance: in the 17th century radicals spoke of the "Norman Yoke" on traditional English liberties, while 19th-century scholars debated whether it was "good" or "bad" for the nation's development.
Today, the Conquest is still a hotly-debated issue, popularly regarded as the last time England was successfully invaded.

Uncyclopedia:Pee Review/User:Mr-ex777/Mary-sue
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
edit User:Mr-ex777/Mary-sue
Just finished this article, and see how it is.
FcukmanLOOS3R!!! 10:50, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
Can somebody review this!? I want it in mainspace!--FcukmanLOOS3R!!! 07:16, August 12, 2011 (UTC)
PEE REVIEW IN PROGRESS of giving you his opinion and pretending you care. |
Humour: | 2 | I'll take this section by section.
Concept: | 2 | Here's the thing about this article. It's comedic "concept" seems to be: "Truth about something pathetic + Overexcited writing + random references to sex and pop culture = comedy gold."
Sorry, but that doesn't pan out. It's kind of the same concept as saying "Scientologists are WACKY IDIOTS who believe in XENU while they FUCK THEIR MOMS." And that doesn't make me laugh. That makes me think "Well, I kind of agree with the sentiment, but it's very poorly phrased, it's unsubtle, and I don't think any Scientologist is going to find himself skewered by its rapier wit." The article needs a better concept. Here's a few that might work:
Prose and formatting: | 2 | The number of usage errors in this piece is just unacceptable. Let's just look at the second sentence of this thing:
"It is basically your everyday fanfic character, but [missing pronoun] is extremely powerful that they can destroy the FSM in seconds, and all the characters love her to death, and those who did not love her are treated as evil-doers." See the bold text? Mary Sue is, in one sentence, a genderless singular, a genderless plural, and a female singular - and there's also a pronoun missing. On top of that, you're using the word "extremely" instead of "so" for some reason, you're switching tenses in the middle ("can destroy" versus "did"), and you have a sort of ridiculous run-on sentence that should be two sentences if not three. These kinds of problems continue throughout the article. There are mistakes a simple spell check would fix. "adolcent"? Surely you should be able to just glance at that and see that's not how you spell "adolescent." Basically, there are comma splices, misspellings, usage errors, tense disagreements, pronoun disagreements, run-on sentences, capitalization misuse, and every other species of error I can think of, scattered liberally through this. I suspect 75% of these could be avoided if you'd simply be more careful when you write and make sure to read your sentences back to yourself in your head. |
Images: | 2 | I have no idea why the main picture is a Sonic the Hedgehog character. None at all.
But that's not why I'm giving you a 2. The 2 is for the giant "how to tell if your character is a Mary Sue" picture, which is funny - funnier than the article, actually - but unoriginal. And being plopped down at such a massive size, so prominently right in the article, just feels like rank plagiarism. The author isn't being credited! You're not making a joke by including that picture, but basically just stealing someone else's joke and passing it off as part of your joke. That's not cool, man. |
Miscellaneous: | 2 | Two seems to be the general theme here. |
Final Score: | 10 | Hate to tell you, but this isn't nearly ready for mainspace. It doesn't have a comedic concept - all it tells me is that you know what a Mary Sue is and that you watch a lot of cartoons. You're going to have to take this one back to the drawing board, come up with a satirical concept, replace virtually every word in the article, and make sure all the content you use is your own, this time.
Good luck! |

Valeera Sanguinar
Valeera Sanguinar represents the Rogue class in Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft.
Official overview[edit | edit source]
- Orphan. Thief. Gladiator. Assassin. Rogue.
Orphaned at a young age, the blood elf Valeera Sanguinar spent her youth stealing to survive. After being imprisoned for a failed theft, she was sold to Rehgar Earthfury, a trainer of fierce gladiators, who saw great fighting potential in Valeera. Rehgar grouped Valeera with the night elf druid Broll Bearmantle and a mysterious but fierce human male, who had no memory of who he was or how he arrived in orc territory.
After arriving in Orgrimmar, Valeera, Broll, and the human fought together out of necessity; otherwise they wouldn't survive the gladiatorial contests in the ancient Dire Maul arena. They quickly warmed up to each other. With Valeera's speed, Broll's shape-shifting prowess, and the human's skill, the trio would conquer any gladiators they faced. The human even earned a name for himself: "Ghost Wolf," or Lo'Gosh in the Tauren tongue.
Eventually, the three unlikely allies escaped from their life of slavery. With help from Jaina Proudmoore and her advisor Aegwynn, they were able to dispel some of the dark magics blocking Lo'Gosh's memories. Lo'Gosh was able to remember that he was in fact Varian Wrynn - the lost King of Stormwind! Together, the group journeyed to Stormwind to reclaim Varian's rightful place on the throne.
When they journeyed to Stormwind, they discovered that a doppelganger was acting as king in Varian's place. The doppelganger king was being controlled and manipulated by one of his own advisors: Lady Katrana Prestor—the black dragon Onyxia in human form. Seeing her dark magic blocking Varian's true memories had been pierced, Onyxia revealed her true form and attempted to destroy the heroes. After a fierce battle, Valeera, Varian, Broll, and others vanquished Onyxia and freed Varian's son Anduin from the dragon's clutches.
With Stormwind's rightful king on the throne, Varian offered Valeera and Broll honored places in Stormwind as his trusted advisors and bodyguards. Valeera accepted, but later made her intentions clear: She would serve neither the Horde nor the Alliance, and her loyalties would lie only with Varian and Anduin. In Stormwind, Valeera finally had a place she could call home, alongside the friends she had grown to love.
Valeera's skills as a Rogue are nigh unmatched; her grace and dexterity allow her to easily flow from one opponent to the next in the heat of battle. Her Hero Power allows her to summon her favored weapons: A pair of wicked daggers.
If you leave her an opening, Valeera can Eviscerate her opponent—or any minion that may stand in her way. Valeera's fighting style capitalizes on her speed, commonly striking an opponent with a flurry of successive blows to bring them down. When she creates a card Combo, her class-specific Rogue attacks often strike for additional damage, or produce some other useful effect. Don't take your eyes off this Rogue for a moment![1]
Quotes[edit | edit source]
- "I am neither Horde nor Alliance. What has either faction ever done for me?"
Flavor text[edit | edit source]
When viewed in the Collection, Valeera has the following flavor text:
- Expert assassin. Deadly gladiator. Best knife skills in her cooking class, according to survivors.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Valeera was chosen to represent the rogue class partially in order to balance faction, race and gender representation across the cast of heroes. As a blood elf female, Valeera added diversity to the cast of characters, as opposed to options such as Mathias Shaw or Edwin VanCleef (human male, already represented by both Anduin and Uther), or Garona Halforcen (a female half-orc, making the fifth orc hero).[2][3][4]
Voice[edit | edit source]
Valeera Sanguinar is voiced by Tara Platt.

If all those tummy-warming winter comfort foods have resulted in belly bulge, Dr. Mehmet Oz, author of "YOU: The Owner's Manual: An Insider's Guide to the Body That Will Make You Healthier and Younger," has four new solutions. They offer holistic ways to boost your metabolism and accelerate fat-burning, according to KPRC. Plus: Find out what the latest studies show about the power of green tea extract to turbo-charge weight loss.
Tip One: Branch chain amino acids, found in protein powders. Dr. Oz recommends using them at breakfast "because they can satiate you so you won't be over hungry for the rest of the day." Look for one without added artificial ingredients. Example: NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate (click for details). Our tip: Experiment by adding unsweetened almond milk and different types of fresh fruit for a morning smoothie that will boost your energy and metabolism all day long.
Tip Two: Sage leaf tea in the morning to keep your metabolism functioning at optimal levels.
Tip Three: White bean extract, which Dr. Oz calls a "very effective" sugar blocker. ""Let's say you have a doughnut. If you want to block that sugar from getting into your body and [turning] into fat on your thighs, you want to take a sugar eraser," said Dr. Oz. "And white bean extract is one of the best ones out there from my perspective." Example: Pure Naturals Carb Blocker or Natrol White Kidney Bean Carb Intercept.
Tip Four: Greek yogurt with vitamin C to boost the absorption of calcium and fat-burning. Our tip: Mix vitamin C powder or crystals into plain Greek yogurt and put in freezer. It tastes like tropical frozen yogurt. Example: NOW Foods Vitamin C Crystals.
Plus: Can green tea extract really help with weight loss? Yes, according to a new study cited in WebMD. Clinical trial participants who drank tea with green tea extract added lost significantly more body fat. How much do you need? Based on all previous studies, at least four cups daily or green tea extract supplements. Example: Life Extension Decaffeinated Mega Green Tea Extract 98% Polyphenolds, Vegetarian Capsules (click for details).
Note: If you're trying to lose weight, Dr. Oz also has authored two weight loss books: "YOU: Losing Weight: The Owner's Manual to Simple and Healthy Weight Loss" and "YOU: On A Diet Revised Edition: The Owner's Manual for Waist Management."

I use multiple Artboards on my Illustrator documents consistently and don't know how I could work without them. I use them for versioning, multiple concepts, logo variations and more. If you're like me, sometimes navigating multiple Artboards on a document can get cumbersome. Luckily, there is a keyboard shortcut!
Category Archives: Tips and Tricks
Change Default Fonts for New Documents
Looking through some of my past work, I noticed I used the font Myriad a lot. At first I wondered why, then I came to the realization, it might be because Myriad is the default font in Illustrator. After that, I changed my default font for new documents. It is really easy to do, so read on to find out how.
How to Turn Your Sketches Into Vectors with Adobe Illustrator
In this tutorial I will show you how to turn your doodles and sketches into vectors! This tutorial uses custom brushes, the Paintbrush tool, Pen tool, and the Live Paint Bucket tool. Even if your not a huge fan of the cuteness, you can use these techniques for other illustrations, logos, and vector elements.
How to Automate Actions in Illustrator
Actions are a set of commands or a series of events that you can record and playback in the Actions panel. Actions are great for complex or repetitive tasks. I use the Actions all the time, especially when working with icon sets or buttons, like in the previous tutorial. If you are familiar at all with the Actions panel in Photoshop, you will have no problem with the Actions in Illustrator.
Four Quick Ways To Create Your Own Abstract Background Vector!
I like illustrating characters, icons, and other highly representative illustrations. I do this kind of work the majority of time in Illustrator, so it's nice to break out and create my own abstract background vector. Abstract backgrounds are easy to create in Illustrator with a couple of simple techniques. Using Gradient Meshes, Steps Blends and Opacity Masks you can quickly create an abstract background.
Quick Tip: How to Reverse Brush Strokes in Illustrator
Like many other designers, I love using the Brush Tool (b), but hate trying to reverse brush strokes in Illustrator. Finally I found a quick way to change the direction of a single brush stroke without affecting other strokes associated with the same brush. First, select the path and then click on a endpoint with the Pen Tool (p), creating a new direction toward that point. Sadly, this trick only works on open paths.
Simple How To: Export PSD Files from Illustrator
I love working in Illustrator, but every once and a while, I need to export PSD files from Illustrator. Illustrator gives you the ability to export to Photoshop while preserving important information. You can export Layers, Color Profiles, Resolution Specification, and Text Preservation. This is great for exporting website wireframes or sprucing up illustrations.

hey guys I really need help.
Student or Learner
Hi everybody.
I have two questions:
1) What is the different between a British and an American accent ?
Is there a big different or just in pronunciation ?
2) Is an Australian accent the same in a British?
Thanks for help.
Note : If there any mistakes in my post please correct them.
hey guys I really need help.
Hi Happy Face!
For some reason nobody has replied yet. I'll try correcting your mistakes, but please remember that I don't have to be right about it.
Hi everybody.
I have two questions:
1) What is the difference between the British and the American accent? We don't put spaces before question marks!
Is there a big difference or just in pronunciation? We don't put spaces before question marks!
2) Is the Australian accent the same in a British? I'm not sure how to correct this phrase, but it's certainly incorrect.
Thanks for your help.
Note: (We don't put spaces before colons!) If there are any mistakes in my post please correct them.

BC's corrections of the first sentence in 1 are fine; and there is a difference. I don't understand the distinction you seem to be making between accent and pronunciation. Most of the differences are in the accent, but in some cases there are differences in vocabulary, word choices, grammar choices, grammar ... This has been discussed many times in this forum; try a few searches.
As to 2, by asking the question you have already answered it. If 'Australian accent' means anything, then of course the answer's No. This too has been discussed before. It's likely that nobody was rushing to answer because they had already answered elsewhere and are sick and tired of repeating themselves.

'It is a promising smart phone from the house of HTC and therefore, it comes with a wide range of applications and features. '
'the HTC HD Mini feels great as the four corners of the phone are smooth and rounded.'
'ugly phone'
'Overall, holding the phone felt great during long conversations, with no discomfort. '
'Unfortunately, this glossy casing shows fingerprints incredibly, such that I found myself constantly wiping the phone down. '
'the design is simple and professional.'
'The Touch Dual's 400-MHz Qualcomm MSM7200 CPU is powerful enough to run Windows Mobile at a decent clip, though on occasion I still had to wait several seconds with frozen dialog boxes on the screen.'
'The original Touch model had it on the bottom edge which was way more convenient, especially when you had the phone inside the case - the new solution doesn't allow plugging in headset in such a situation due to the unusual slot location.'
'well-designed slider'
'it revealed the elegant image of the modern PocketPC'
'best phone'
'QVGA resolution which is now not enough for a high-end phone.'
'the new tilting display does, perhaps, make it easier to read data from the screen while the unit sits on a desk, and certainly should help when it comes to watching videos on the device.'
'The keyboard has white backlighting, which looks somewhat uneven.'
'This is attractive and comfortable to hold, but there is concern that it will discolor, or worse, degenerate from heat or over time.'

Epson AcuLaser M4000DN Toner Cartridges Printer Review
Expert review of the Epson AcuLaser M4000DN printer 08 January 2013
This monochrome laser printer is aimed at busy offices with the most demanding jobs. Unlike its predecessor, the Epson AcuLaser M4000DN mono workgroup printer has a built-in duplexer but it continues to ensure fast print speeds and a reliable performance. The AcuLaser M4000DN A4 monochrome laser printer for medium and large workgroups is network-ready, too, but it is expensive and noisy.
This large and boxy unit may take up space on a typical desktop because it measures 480mm long and 428mm wide. The Epson M4000DN workgroup printer weighs 21.5Kg with the matte but resilient plastic frame, 1200dpi laser print engine, 550-sheet input tray, the duplex unit, 150-sheet multi-purpose tray, and the toner cartridge. The connectivity options of the Epson AcuLaser M4000DN printer include parallel, Ethernet, and high-speed USB 2.0, but it can accommodate an optional Type B interface, too. The M-4000DN printer model runs on 64MB of memory with a 500MHz processor.
A generous duty cycle and fast print speeds of up to 43ppm are among the top qualities of the Epson AcuLaser M4000DN mono laser printer. It comes with a duplexer. The print quality and speed are able to keep up when two-sided printing is being used. The Epson AcuLaser M4000DN laser printer can be expanded for higher memory and paper capacity. Users may integrate a HDD into the device for security and document storage. The device is also praised for its versatile connectivity and good quality output. High-yield Epson AcuLaser M4000DN toners are used by the printer in order to handle heavy workloads with maximum cost-efficiency.
The AcuLaser M4000DN monochrome printer may be fast but that means more noise is emitted while operating. It is also an expensive printer when compared to similar but more affordable options offered by the competition. The Epson M4000DN AcuLaser could be better with a larger display screen that can be tilted or flipped-up.

Fresh flowers are on their way!
There really are few things I get as excited about.I love flowers and greenery and getting to help pick out the wonderful fresh blooms that we will have for sale at the Paris Market next week for Valentines Day is the best. Getting to paint a sign to promote it in our window-even better!
(The incredible paper flowers are by the talented Shelby Massey).

Tech Shop
What is Tech Shop? That is what they brought us in to help answer. Truth is, it is a very cool place, just a bit hard to describe to those not in the know. We thought the best way to explain it would be to use the voices of its members. We brought in DodoCase founder Patrick Buckley, Etsy success Tina Albin-Lax, and rocket pack builder (yes, he builds working rocket packs) Andy Filo to voice just how essential Tech Shop was in bringing their ideas to life.

My idea for naming the Christian reactionary blogosphere after Jim Kalb...
...provoked an interesting but inconclusive and fissile discussion.
Many of the suggestions for names either took the 'Christianity' for granted or ignored it and focused on the political dimension.
But for me this would be unforgivable - Christianity must come first, and must be the foundation of any socio-political views; and the Christianity cannot be assumed, especially not in the 'reactionary' blogosphere which is dominated by atheists (libertarians, nationalists etc).
So, my conclusion is that we should call ourselves...
unless anyone has anything better to suggest?
I have added a highly-selective 'blogroll' on this basis (noting that Daniel is a Christian seeker rather than a convert, as far as I know); and intend to re-label my blog accordingly (I mean as a 'Christian Reactionary' blog) - unless prevented by strong arguments over the next few days...
One alternative which I would certainly consider is REACTIONARY CHRISTIAN - on the basis that linguistically this has Christian as primary and reactionary as the modifier.
But, on the other hand, when Christian comes first in the order of words, it will be the first thing which people notice and focus upon.
So, I do not have a strong preference between the two - but CR does seem more easy to say and more memorable than RC.

First up is my lone practise Spinning Star block. I have hand quilted it and assembled a back and now just have to get the binding sewn down.
Next, I've joined up all the green squares for the Holiday Surprise Reverse Appliqué Pillow from Pretty in Patchwork Holidays. This is for the sew along on Threadbias.
Just need to get the template enlarged, so I can attach the linen. Although I'm not too sure if the linen will fray too much? Would I be better with cotton?
A few people are making the valentine heart version and they look amazing, but I'm sticking with the tree, as I'll be early for Christmas, but late for valentines!! ha!
And last bit of progress this week is on my Woodland Sampler.
I spent some time on Saturday evening working on the February frame, it's such a cute cross stitch!!
Now that I don't have a quilt on the go I feel kind of bereft! Is this normal? I have the fabric and plans to start two new ones (but can't pick a background colours) and an idea for a Siblings Together one, but don't want to start until the boys are back at school next week.
Also, can I ask you all a technical question? I don't have any fancy quilt programs on my computer, but if I wanted to make a simple mock-up of a quilt for colour purposes, does anyone know a good easy way to do that on a Mac? Ta!
I'm off to see all the other WIP's over at

I felt like I never ended up getting what I asked for and it always took a few moths for my hair to grow out into something I didn't loathe. Well, that's until my friend recommended Grasshopper Salon and Elisa as a stylist. I have to say hands down she is the best! She was patient and receptive when I explained what I wanted (and what I didn't want). We had great conversation throughout the cut which put me at ease and she checked in multiple times to make sure I was okay with the length. I'm not sure what was better, the great cut of the amazing head massage. I have never received so many compliments on my hair. Elisa = phenomenal.

Beauty SalonsBarbersHair Supplies & AccessoriesDay Spas Andria Falcon at Dekko Salon I am writing this review in order to correct an injustice. The review written by GRRGirl is a false negative. It is unfortunate that there are people in this world who have a hidden agenda and use an otherwise informative media to destroy the reputation of a good person. Andria has been coloring and cutting my hair for 2 years. When Andria first started to color my hair it was damaged due to over coloring and the color did not compliment my skin tone. My hair was also over layered. I consulted with Andria prior to her working on my hair and she worked out a plan for me to grow out the layers and she recommended a color that was more suitable. Andria has never done anything to my hair that was outrageous. She is capable of cutting hair in various styles and she does not limit herself to any ?trendy movement?. The only trend that she endorses is the use of green products which are good on the hair with minimal damage to the environment. Andria is a professional business woman. She is honest in her pricing and tries to help conserve cost by making appropriate recommendations regarding appointments with cuts and color. She does not try to sell unnecessary products. And she instructs me on how to care for my hair. I trust Andria with my hair and I love the way my hair looks. She also cuts the hair of my 17 year old daughter. Her hair is long, thick and lustrous. She is also very happy with Andria. Andria always behaves in a professional manner. She is always respectful when she speaks to her clients. She does not spend her time gossiping about people or making negative comments. She keeps her clientele?s business private. I am aware that she has clients that are very important people in the Bay Area and she respects their privacy. As I stated at the beginning of this review, GrrGirl has a hidden agenda. What was written in her review does not describe Andria in a truthful manner. And yes, we do need to beware. It is sad that there are people in this world who wish to do others harm.

Beauty SalonsNail SalonsDay SpasHair Removal This is wonderful new salon just newly opened right on the catro neighborhood. It's a very charming and confortable place for me to get pampered. I can spend all day there from doing my hair, nails, facials and waxing. They're not only doing excellent jobs on me, but most importantly, i feel very cared by the staffs who work there. \r \r By the end of my visit, i was so surprised to pay such reasonable price on all the services i had ( not to mentione a glass of champagne was an additional treat for me). What a bargain! I will definitely go back!\r \r \r \r

Beauty SalonsBarbersBody Wrap SalonsDay Spas This is my first post on city search, so here goes.\r \r Sarah cut my hair and she did an amazing job. I have long hair down to my mid-back, so I'm always worried that the stylist will cut off too much. But Sarah cut off exactly the amount I asked her to. I asked her to trim off all the split ends, and to create a few long layers in the front to frame my face.\r \r She explained what she was doing every step of the way. She even warned me that larger pieces of hair would fall down when she cut the layers, and told me not to be scared that she'd cut too much off.\r \r She was also a great conversationalist. She didn't talk my ear off like most stylists do. She kept the conversation going and was really friendly and so much fun to talk to.\r \r My hair looks great now, and I love the layers she put in.\r \r Now, I won't let anyone else touch my hair and I highly recommend her to everyone else.\r \r The only bad thing? My appointment started 20 minutes late... she did apologize for keeping me waiting.

Based on other peoples experience ( In other office). I was affraid this particular procedure was going to hurt as much as when I got the Tattoo done. I expressed my concern about the pain to Dr. Echavez and he made sure I felt no pain. He numbed me and the procedure was done with no pain. I also wanted to know the number of sessions needed in order for the tattoo to be gone. He was very certain and suggested the right number of sessions. My overall experience was very good and pleasant. The scar from the tattoo removal is not noticeable at all.

Air Flow™ Cover
Finally! A leak-proof cloth diaper cover that refuses to compromise breathability! We searched for over a year to find just the right fabric that would meet our quality standards. The fabric needed to be soft, durable and waterproof. The Air Flow™ Snap Cover, with adjustable snaps at the waist and leg openings has an air ventilation system between the snaps. This allows for maximum air circulation as baby moves, reducing the risk of bacteria by keeping the temperature inside the cloth diaper down. And, unlike Velcro, the curious baby can't undo them, so they stay on until you take them off.
The Air Flow™ cover is to be used with either the One Size™ cloth diapers or Sandy's™ cloth diapers to create a highly breathable, leakproof diapering system.

I have a number of clients that are taking their first steps into the online advertising world. The most powerful player in this field is of course, Google.
Google Adword is a program that lets companies control their online ad placement, total costs and receive complete metrics of the adverts effects. To setup the program is quite simple but does require a bit of work to perfect.

At Sun Flour Baking, we believe that teaching children about health and nutrition is vitally important. We also believe that it can be fun! For this reason, we established a sister publishing company,
SK Publishing
to offer colorfully illustrated, fun books for children that teach healthy eating habits. We use a laser printer and 100% recycled paper!
Our first few titles,
The Organic Adventures of Tucker the Tomato
Benji Bean Sprout Doesn't Eat Meat!, and the Natural Kid's Fun Activity & Coloring Book are examples of the kind of books we plan to continue publishing. These books teach organics, the ethics of vegetarianism and the important names of fruits & veggies! More are soon to come!

We always suggest our one pound bags of mini cookies for parents. They are only 1 ounce each, which is about 4 times smaller than our large cookies! Plus, they are individually wrapped, which is very convenient for the lunch bag.

In addition to the regular game reviews, news, and letters, this issue includes advice and strategy on winning Star Fleet Battles; rules for magical backlash in TFT; an amusing short story about a conjuration gone wrong; creature stats for the classic RPG Wizard's Realm; information on how to make durable "megahexes," useful for all kinds of hex-based gaming; a report on the state of gaming in Sweden, circa 1982; the second column in a series about the miniatures industry; and more.

This class meets on some Thursdays from 2:00 - 4:30. This site is for informational purposes. All of the instruction will take place on the Canvas page for Humanities 7, which will open at 8am on January 17, 2017. By then, registered students will receive a welcome message from the Canvas system (not from me) with login and password. Hopefully, the information on this page will help you decide whether or not to take this course, and to prepare for it. Please read it carefully. Students who want to get a head start on the supplemental reading we will begin the course with (it must be completed by our first meeting on Thursday, January 26 from 2 - 4:30pm) can download the quotations from Emile Durkheim and Isabel Allende's "Walimai" short story at the bottom of this page. The SYLLABUS is the most important document of the semester. Please download it, since you'll need to be familiar with as we begin the class and have our first meeting. Print it, along with the English Department Syllabus Attachment, and staple them together for easy reference. Humanities 7: Comparative Religions is a course which investigates what major world religions have to say about the meaning of existence, about life after death, but also -- most importantly -- about how to live. I hope it will be a journey of discovery for students and instructor alike, but since the course largely takes place online, there are a lot of organizational issues to get clear, so please read carefully: 1. This is a hybrid class, not a completely online class. There are six mandatory meetings (Thursdays from 2 - 4:30), most on Ocean campus in Creative Arts 308 but also for a field trip in San Francisco. Anyone who fails to attend the first meeting of the semester will not be a part of the course -- these meetings are strictly required, and are listed below. 2. Technical problems of ALL kinds (computer, browser, Canvas downtime) must go through technical channels. The main page of Canvas contains many links for help, including an extensive Online Course Support Center [link to be updated] where you can find answers and submit help tickets. Students can also call 415-452-5689 and talk with our support staff or drop by Batmale Hall 310. The instructor cannot answer technical questions. 3. Adding the class: I will try to add all students on the Wait List, but may not be able to add anyone else. THERE WILL BE NO LATE ADDS. As with traditional classes, adding and dropping are the student's responsibility. Please contact the instructor by e-mail if you want to take the class and can't get on the Waiting List -- if you just show up for the first class, it is already late in the semester to begin. 4. An online/hybrid course like this one is not for everyone. It is not easier or less work than a face-to-face class. You will have to keep up with the reading; there will be forum responses and quizzes every week, an essay to write, and substantial in-person Midterm and Final Exams. Please see the CCSF Distance Education page to help decide if this course is for you. 5. Contact the instructor using the information to the left. Do not use any other e-mail addresses you find for me. I may not check phone messages very often; e-mail is the best way to reach me. I will communicate with you largely through the Student Gmail account the school has set up for you. You must use it to take this class. You will also receive your login and password for Canvas on this account. Information about accessing your Student Gmail (aka CCSF Gmail) account is here. 6. The book we use is Living Religions by Mary Pat Fisher (8th Edition). You are welcome to order this early from a vendor of your choice; it will also be available in the CCSF bookstore. ISBN-13: 978-0205835850. There is now a 9th Edition which the school bookstore will carry, so if you want to save money and get the 8th Edition, order it well before the semester begins. MANDATORY MEETINGS
OFFICE HOURS My office hours are MWF 11-12 and TR 12:30-1:00 in Arts 213 at the Ocean Campus. You can always e-mail me at email@example.com. IF INSTRUCTOR IS UNAVAILABLE OR CANVAS IS DOWN If for some reason I am unable to access our class due to a personal emergency, I will contact the Chair of the Educational Technology Department. You will receive a message from the Chair via Cavnas letting you know that I am absent and providing you with details about the class in my absence.If
you are not able to access the class via Insight due to a technical
difficulty, I will post a message on this website. You can find a link to this website in the online schedule
on the College's website and in the Syllabus. Additionally, I will send
an email to your CCSFmail address with details about when we expect
Insight to be accessible and a contingency plan for course work. |

The teaching/research nexus: Staff perspectives and organisational implications Ann Zubrick AAAJ Consulting Group Adjunct Professor University of Notre Dame Australia
Some questions If you were asked to identify examples within Wollongong University of an effective teaching /research nexus, what would they be and where are they located? Are they examples of particular academic units or individuals, or of effective policy (e.g. for promotions or appointments)? What factors currently militate against developing a stronger T/R nexus? What steps might be taken to create a more effective nexus? How would you chart this change?
Views of the nexus: 1. correlational "That good teachers are researchers is a myth - at best, the association between ratings of undergraduate instruction and scholarly productivity is a positive one, with correlations in the.10 to.16 range." Pascarella and Terinzini (1994) p.30
View 2: both are forms of learning "Learning is the vital link between research and teaching. It is a shared process in these two enterprises...This is not to say that research is wholly about learning, any more than facilitating learning is the whole of teaching...Teaching and research and correlated when they are co-related, i.e. when what is being related are two aspects of the same activity: learning." Brew and Boud (1995) p. 268
View 3: both are forms of scholarship Ernest Boyer (1990) suggested this in his widely acclaimed monograph Scholarship reconsidered: Priorities of the professoriate where he described 1. The scholarship of teaching (or discourse) 2. The scholarship of application 3. The scholarship of integration (or synthesis) 4. The scholarship of discovery.
View 4 : a goal to realise "Universities need to set as a mission goal the improving of the nexus between research and teaching. The aim is to increase the circumstances in which good teaching and research have occasion to meet, and to provide rewards not only for better teaching or for better research but for demonstrations of the integration between teaching and research." Hattie and Marsh, (1996) p.533
What does strengthening the nexus mean? Is the nexus necessarily strengthened by bringing research explicitly into teaching? (e.g.Reinventing undergraduate education?) Is it necessarily achieved when academics research their teaching? Does it occur when workload pressures lead individuals or groups to try to manage their work practices more productively? Is it an outcome of developing a shared philosophical framework that shapes academic policy and practices? How is the nexus understood within different university contexts and across the disciplines?
Some critical findings Need to establish extensive institutional dialogue about the nexus and what it means in situ. Need to link U/G programs to ongoing research at the edge of current knowledge (the warp and weft concept of T and R). Need to evaluate/encourage/ reward teaching in ways that affirm the inter-related nature of scholarship (getting off the see-saw). T/R relationships differ by discipline; and within the professions and they can involve community service.
Establishing dialogue about what the nexus means in situ. Universities vary in their shared understandings of what the nexus means in situ Developing appropriate forums and sharing conversations is a prime task for all leaders Disciplinary differences have to be appropriately accommodated
Linking U/G programs to ongoing research Students are curious about research and want to informed and involved Involvement takes a variety of forms and can be done from the very first stages As demand for courses changes, linking research interests to U/G teaching may involve some creative uses, staff assignment and development.
Rewarding teaching to affirm the inter- related nature of scholarship Ballarat requests staff to report their activities/achievements under Boyer's four scholarships Curtin requests departments to identify ways in which they are enhancing the nexus as part of their bids for funding UWA has a portfolio and reward system for departmental excellence.
How T/R relationships differ by discipline Sociology at Ballarat Computer Science at Ballarat Law at UWA English at UWA Chemistry at Curtin Science and Mathematics Education Centre at Curtin
Disciplinary differences in the nexus "Teaching is experienced differently in the different disciplines; in some it may be largely divorced from research. In English and Law, there is a necessity to align teaching and research interests. Here scholarship provides a bridge between both, and, particularly in English, the boundary between research and scholarship is fluid. It is important that these differences are noted in workload allocation, staff-student ratios, and in funds for research. Moses 1990 (p. 373)."
Examples of where the nexus is strongest Where Departments/ Schools have active and effective review processes for staff that focus on the nexus where there is active scholarly mentoring and team teaching; interdisciplinary activity where comprehensive definitions of scholarship are put into action where U/G students can undertake well- supervised 'real world' projects.
Some conditions that weaken the nexus tacitly accepting a T/R dichotomy (e.g. in promotions policies and costing models) poor assessment tools for evaluating teaching; e.g. excluding peer assessments defining and measuring research narrowly; rewarding quantity rather than quality; attenuated concepts of scholarship; inflexible recognition/reward schemes
Some conditions that weaken the nexus (cont'd) Research-only centres Casual/teaching-only staff High teaching loads and large classes High research supervision loads Strong discipline boundaries Isolation from one's discipline
Differences across and within universities Cyclic considerations within institutions and the disciplines e.g. local institutional conditions and cyclic disciplinary ones Life cycle considerations of individual academics Staff support systems Flexibility of reward systems
Conclusions There are several strands in the T/R nexus These vary both across and within institutions Epistemology is intricated in policy Institutions, their staff and students benefit when universities recognise, value and reward diversity and quality in T & R But moving from potentialities to alignment of policies with our practices is a challenge for institutions and staff
Some final points for reflection What steps might be taken at Wollongong to create a more effective nexus? If you are focussing on strengthening the nexus, where are your current policy strengths? What factors weaken the nexus at Wollongong? To what extent do you within this University community share understandings of the nexus within Wollongong - within Faculties, within Departments and disciplines? How can the necessary dialogues be undertaken or developed further for greater understanding of the value of a stronger nexus?
