Jessica did an outstanding job with all the floral decorating for my brothers memorial service, at his home. Since the memorial was in my brother home, I didn't want the look of "pre-made" florist bouquets. She arrived early and made them all fresh right there. She decorated the mantel where the photos were placed, with free flowing flowers and candles. She didn't miss a corner or restroom and the guest were mentioning how natural and lovely everything looked. Jessica paid attention to what kind of "look" I was trying to achieve and stayed within my budget. I will be recommending her to my friends and family, as well as using her for my upcoming wedding!
If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. Completely above & beyond all expectations, and I knew the team was going to be good. Simply THE VERY BEST out there. We had our florist, beauty and DJ services from LadyMarry, and they are super professional and affordable.
I have never worked with a vendor so efficient, thoughtful, and genuine! Anytime my husband and I made any changes to our original plan, Sue ALWAYS accommodated our needs. Additionally, she would give her opinion if we needed advice, which truly helped. When I first met her, she was very professional and I knew right off the bat that we had chosen the perfect florist. She made our wedding vision come true and decorated our venue more than what we imagined. I showed her an inspiration board and asked her to use seasonal flowers. When I saw her work at my wedding, I was blown away! Her floral arrangements are the best! I would not skip a beat to hire Sue as your florist. She is receptive, attentive, and altogether great to work with! Thank you, Sue!
Simply amazing!!! Everything about our experience with Bellissimo's Flowers was outstanding!! Georgia took a simple idea and brought it to life. The flowers were exquisite!! The care she took in first consulting with us and then in seeing to every little detail was just incredible. The price was great!! The attention to detail was even better. I have been searching for just the right words to write this review because I'm still in disbelief. I'm happier with what we got than I could have imagined. Call Georgia first before you call other florists. Before you call a wedding planner call Georgia. She had so many ideas. I'm so incredibly thankful!! She really made our wedding unforgettable!! Georgia really can do it all and with a smile. When everything was going crazy Georgia really stepped in and rolled up her sleeves to make it all better. My guests have been calling and asking for the contact information. Everyone was just in awe. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Whenever I have an event or just want to make someone's day I'm calling Georgia from here on out.
Eve/A Flower snob saved me from myself. I had planned to do my own flowers with my bridesmaids the days leading up to the wedding. I did tons of research and was preparing to pull the trigger and then after some convincing from my cousin I decided to look for a professional. A florist that would be willing to work with my budget so that I didn't have an extra thing to worry about leading up to the wedding. Enter Eve… I had a certain budget in mind and posted my specifics on Thumbtack. Before the day was done 2 vendors responded but Eve beat out the competition because she was already asking all the right questions and had the better reviews and website. Eve paid a lot of attention to detail and made sure that I was able to have the best floral options for my budget. She listened to what my vision was and was able to give me alternatives of less expensive flowers that would still give me the look I desired. She was Easy to work with, friendly, attentive, responsive, super knowledgeable, and creative. I ordered center pieces, boutonnieres, and bouquets from her and she personally delivered the centerpieces and set them up at my venue. She even hand delivered the bouquets and boutonnieres while I was getting ready in a local hotel. When I met her in person she was so warm and vibrant, she is just good people. I would truly say that with Eve you are going to be in the best hands possible she made the decision to choose her for my wedding very easy and was extremely personable. I appreciate this in a vendor and I especially appreciate her work.
I had struggled to find a great florist since moving to Los Angeles two years ago until I tried Sibyl Sophia Floral Design. Sophie's arrangement are tasteful, beautiful, and very reasonably priced. No matter what your floral needs--an arrangement or bouquet for a loved one, floral design for an event--you will find no one better in Los Angeles than Sibyl Sophia. I can't recommend her work highly enough!
They did wonderfully! Amanda is so easy to work with and the flowers were beautiful. I couldn't have asked for a better florist!!
I had the best experience with Victoria. She had amazing ideas for my wedding day. The touch of blues in a silver and white tone theme added elegance and grace, just as I was imagining it. All flowers were really fresh and guests were all eager to take it home after. Despite the great work, I had no issues communicating and from the start of our consultation, I noticed how quickly I was understood with my requests. My bouquet was so full and heavy, so I know I got my money's worth. Definitely a to-go-to florist with any wants and needs that will be fulfilled beyond expected.
This young, talented and creative florist will truly amaze you with her arrangements. A fresh,unique and perfect flower arrangement was made by Pia Floral Design for my husband as a valentines gift from kids. Your exquisite and artistic arrangements shows how a great talent you are. Keep up the good work!!
I have had the pleasure of working with Orquid for a few of my events such as birthdays and baby showers. And when it came time to choose a florist for the most important day of my life (my wedding) I new she was the only one I could trust. She's professional, friendly, creative and really easy to work with. But most importantly she's able to take my ideas and bring them to life. Her work is truly beautiful.

Fantastic florist who created a beautiful wedding arch, bridal bouquets and table decor on a very very short timeline. Irene definitely has the eye and vision and was able to fashion beautiful and elegant arrangements only based on our phone conversations as I am not local. I definitely recommend and will update with pictures as soon as I receive them!
This was hands down, the BEST floral company I could have chosen for my wedding back in October! Rachel was so pleasant, helpful, and knows exactly what she is talking about. I am not very knowledgeable about flowers, but having Rachel take charge (after giving her my initial vision) made planning my wedding so much easier. I spoke with many florists prior to finding Rachel but wasn't 100% sold on any of them. The first time I spoke to Rachel over the phone, I got the best vibe from her. I'm so happy I was patient and chose the right florist! Rachel was extremely responsive during the planning process, and I never had to "track her down." She had great ideas and I felt comfortable saying whether I liked them or maybe preferred something else (which was rare). And lastly, on the day of the wedding, she didn't just drop off the arrangements and take off. She spent time arranging all of the centerpieces, the arch, and the petals that were along the aisle. Sooo many compliments from the guests about how beautiful the florals were! If you want a floral company that will exceed your expectations, contact Rachel now! You will NOT regret it!
D'vine Floral and Sweet Treats...one word AMAZING!! They created exactly what I wanted. They are organized and professional to work with. I wanted my wedding to be simple and elegant with a hint of rose gold and they achieved that. The ceremony decor is what really blew me away. Since we were getting married in technically the Los Angeles Forrest I wanted to play up the nature that was around us. My florist came up with the idea to make an arch on the tree we were getting married under. The arch came out PERFECT. It was an illusion that the beautiful pink roses were growing out of the tree. We ended up renting our sweetheart table and chairs from them which they custom made for us. The dessert bar was the hit of the party. Not only was it delicious and the guest loved snacking on the treats, it was also beautifully decorated to match my theme. The centerpieces were also gorgeous exactly what I wanted!! My bouquet was absolutely beautiful so much so I ended up drying it so I could look at it forever. Everything turned out so amazing and I could not have asked for a better team!!!
Teresa created the flowers for my wedding last August. I emailed her pictures from Pinterest showing the types of flowers I liked and the theme I was going for. They turned out better than anything I could have hoped for! She is very imaginative and resourceful. She's was able to capture our idea but still stay in our budget, which was very important to us. She hand selected the flowers and made 4 bouquets (plus mine), 7 boutonnieres, and center pieces for all of our tables. She even incorporated my grandmother's brooch into my bouquet. Teresa was a pleasure to work with: punctual, reliable, flexible, creative, and encouraging(which is important when planning a wedding)! I would highly recommend her as a florist for your wedding or next event!

Evidence Suggests Life Began 350 Million Years Earlier Finding Also Gives Boost To Theory That Life Came From Beyond Earth
Thu., Nov. 7, 1996
A team of American, British and Australian scientists has uncovered evidence that life may have originated on earth at least 350 million years earlier than previously believed, at a time immediately after a devastating bombardment by meteors.
The discovery complicates the question of when and how terrestrial life arose. Recent studies based partly on the distribution of craters on the moon have suggested that a rain of meteors smashing into the early earth was intense enough until 3.8 billion years ago to destroy all life on the planet, if any existed at that time. The oldest objects believed to be the fossils of living organisms - tiny mineral filaments - are estimated to be 3.5 billion years old.
But findings reported today in the journal Nature imply that the window of time between the end of the lethal meteor bombardment of the young earth and the beginning of life may have been vanishingly short. The work suggests that life had already established a toehold on the infant planet 3.85 billion years ago.
In a comment also published by Nature, Dr. John M. Hayes of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts, said the investigation seemed to imply that biochemical processes "developed with breath-taking rapidity after the last large impact."
Many scientists believe that the chemical processes that gave rise to life must have taken hundreds of millions of years to develop the essential enzymes, proteins and genetic codes. Evidence of a very quick beginning might mean that there was too little time to complete the job on earth, and that life therefore must have originated elsewhere, drifting through space to the earth in the form of spores or by some other means. This is known as the "panspermia" theory.
The discovery reported today was by a group headed by Dr. Gustaf Arrhenius of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at San Diego. (Arrhenius is the grandson of Svante Arrhenius, the renowned 19th-century Swedish scientist whose work laid much of the basis of modern chemistry and who believed that life originated somewhere other than the earth.)
The focus of their investigation was a formation known as the Isua supracrustal belt of Akilia Island in southern West Greenland. The formation had been dated by radioactive decay techniques at 3.85 billion years old, the oldest known rocks in the world.
The discovery did not include any actual fossils. It is believed that no fossils could survive from such ancient times.

In seeking to discourse the proposition " It is sometimes argued that authorities policy has disempowered professionals " , this essay will see the development of authorities policy sing the work of instructors to find whether such policy 's development has 'disempowered ' them. Therefore, this essay will place the differences and similarities sing authorities policy in relation to the learning profession under several Labour and Conservative authoritiess. This procedure of acknowledgment will be undertaken to further this treatment by sing whether and how several authoritiess may be said to hold either 'empowered ' or 'disempowered ' instructors. Finally, this essay concludes with a sum-up of the cardinal points derived from this treatment sing whether it is of all time arguable " that authorities policy has disempowered professionals " .
In get downing this treatment, it is interesting to observe that, give or take some occasional aberrances, such as Michael Howard 's 2005 election run committedness to teach all schools to learn man-made phonics ( Mulholland, 2005 ) , the old Conservative Party 's attack to instructors was based on the thought it should non be instruction curates occupations to state instructors how to learn ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Apparently, it could be argued that the Conservatives had chosen to take something of a 'laissez-faire ' attitude to the on-going development of the learning profession instead than looking to interfere in both pattern and administration with a position to accomplishing a more professional working environment ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . However, the job with this sort of attack by old Conservative authoritiess efficaciously meant that did non hold consistent schemes for the professional development of instructors. There was something of a contradiction here, nevertheless, because a Conservative authorities was responsible for the lone all-out question into the go oning professional development of instructors in the signifier of the James Report of 1972. By manner of comparing, Labour authoritiess Interventions had been slightly sporadic and even slightly confused or misplaced. For illustration, during Callaghan 's term of office the curate for instruction was persuaded " to follow a construction for [ instructors ] professional development. . . and she persuaded the cabinet to give her ?60 million. . . [ to be ] given to the local governments " ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . The job was that these same local governments were given 'carte blanche ' to so pass this same money as they saw tantrum on something else.
With this in head, it is arguable that Local Education Authorities ' ( LEAs ) squandering of national Continuing Professional Development ( CPD ) support contributed to the so Conservative Government 's determination to cut down Local Authorities influence whilst besides 'ring fencing ' Grants for Education, Support & A ; Training ( GEST ) ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Turning misgiving of LEAs amongst the Conservative besides saw two of the cardinal recommendations of the James Report of 1972 died when the so authorities introduced local governments direction of schools ; instructors ' professional development Centres and funded sabbaticals. On this footing, the Education Reform Act 1988 served to advance a echt national professional development programme, specifying entitlements and rights of instructors, as advocated in the James ' Report of 1972, was lost with no farther underpinning entitlement for instructors ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
New Labour has, nevertheless, had a slightly different position with respect to the function of instructors within the instruction system. The Labour Party was ab initio chiefly concerned with literacy and numeracy in primary schools and neglecting schools in the secondary sector whilst the hereafter of the learning profession was given excessively small attending ( Bassey, 2005 ) . Harmonizing to Estelle Morris the authorities did non understand " the demands of learning " during the first three old ages in office partially because without holding done it it is hard for anybody to truly cognize " the force per unit area in the schoolroom " so as to so be better placed to cover with it ( Woodward, 2003 ) . Having joined the Labour authorities 's Standards and Effectiveness Unit in 1997, Kievan Collins said he could non retrieve a clip when instructors morale " was of all time talked about explicitly or attended to " because the authorities 's focal point was upon accomplishing greater literacy and numeracy ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . This focal point of the Labour authorities stood in crisp contrast to Gillian Shephard 's attack at the terminal of the Conservative authorities when she established strategies for 'Reading Recovery ' and 'Literacy and Numeracy ' in 13 governments ( Institute of Education University of London, 2010 ) . In so making, nevertheless, it is to be appreciated that Shephard proved to be critical of a 'free-for-all attitude ' to the professional development of instructors that she had recognised in the sixtiess with a deep intuition of province intercession in teaching method ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
Despite the protestations of assorted curates from both sets of authoritiess in the last 20 old ages at that place was no purpose of 'telling instructors how to learn ' , there have been many different efforts at 'telling instructors what to learn ' ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . On this footing, it is arguably informative to name these efforts that were both indirect and direct. Indirectly, under the Conservatives these attempts included The National Curriculum, National Curriculum Assessment, School Performance Tables, the creative activity of the Teacher Training Agency ( TTA ) and the debut of 'Baker Days ' . Labour besides made some important indirect parts set uping National Targets, revamping the TTA through the Teacher Development Agency ( TDA ) , making a National College for School Leadership ( NCSL ) and a General Teaching Council for Education ( GTCE ) ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . However, merely three direct intercession were implemented under the Conservatives with a position to altering learning methods. The first of these was School Inspections, that were so followed by the pilot Literacy and Numeracy Projects and the Grants for Education and Support and Training ( GEST ) strategy. Conversely, Labour introduced a figure of enterprises including the National Literacy and Numeracy Strategies, the inclusion of Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning ( SEAL ) and School Inspection Partners ( SIPs ) every bit good as the 2001-3 National Professional Development Strategy, set uping a Standards Fund, and the creative activity of a Masters Degree in Teaching and Learning, Appraisal, Performance Management ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
Together these enterprises are considered to be representative of authorities mandated steps with grounds to the Cambridge Review of Primary Education ( University of Cambridge, 2009 ) corroborating many of these enterprises have continued to be contested. With the possible exclusion of the GTCE, nevertheless, few steps implemented by the Conservatives have addressed how instructors can have their acquisition and how teacher self-efficacy can be enhanced. That this has proved to be of import is illustrated by the fact the Organization for Economic Co-Operation & A ; Development 's ( OECD 's ) recent 'Creative Teaching & A ; Learning Environment: Teaching & A ; Learning International Survey ( TALIS ) ' ( OECD, 2009 ) reflected upon links made between self-efficacy, professional development and their public presentation as instructors ( although England refused to take part ) . TALIS is considered to be peculiarly notable since it was the first clip that the OECD has looked to undertake an international survey of instructor attitudes to fostering themselves and instruction as a whole as 'building blocks ' for authorities policy for fostering the learning profession 's development ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . TALIS reflects on the connexions between professional development, self-efficacy and instructor public presentation. The inclusion of self-efficacy is peculiarly of import since instructors ' responses to any authorities enterprise are predicated on whether they enhance or undermine perceptual experiences of their ain effectivity ( OECD, 2009 ) .
Reflecting back upon the development of the place of instructors in the UK, in 1997 David Puttnam served to place neglecting schools taking to the development of the authorities sound-bite of 'pressure and support ' with a position to so break characterizing its relationship with instructors ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . In this respect 'support ' was two-pronged in its remit with the first focusing upon seeking to increase instructors ' assurance, whilst the 2nd looked to cover with the position of learning as portion of Puttnam 's purpose to be able to raise the morale of the work force within the learning profession ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . For one thing Puttnam recognised a devastated work force could retrieve through a public jubilation of instructors ' successes in the schoolroom through the Teaching Awards and, what with the National Union of Teachers ( NUT ) understanding to be legal guardians to the Awards and Puttnam 's axiomatic grasp of instructors, the Teaching Awards became an one-year event that captured the media 's attending and pushed instruction into the limelight ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Furthermore, as has already been recognised, 'support ' involved Lord Puttnam focusing in upon instructor position through the General Teaching Council that was put in topographic point to more efficaciously stand up for instructors ' rights along with their professional development. The authorities besides chose to infix a clause that served to give the Secretary of State ( and therefore the authorities as whole ) a right to be able to add any extra duty to the General Teaching Council of England 's ( GTCE 's ) remit which the Secretary of State elected to use as a contemplation of the authorities 's policy ends and aims in this respect ( General Teaching Council, 2000 ) .
However, administrations like the NUT were slightly concerned about the GTCE holding been given the power to censor instructors from go oning to learn on the footing of their competency. But, whilst teacher administrations ' concerns were besides triggered by claims the GTCE 'represented ' instructors taking to legal menaces from the administrations like the NUT, the most important error made by the authorities, teacher administrations and the GTCE was the premise instructors would welcome a organic structure that was disciplinary in nature and wage for it on hurting of 'deregistration ' ( Knocks, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Apparently, hence, instructors responded to the development of the GTCE in a hostile mode despite its evident purpose to raise the profession 's position so that the 'support ' portion of the reform bundle the authorities sought to incite for instructors was slightly patchy to state the least ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . However, the lines between 'pressure and support ' were really slightly bleary since the authorities 's Department for Education & A ; Employment Green Paper entitled 'Teachers: Meeting the Challenge ' ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) covered the affairs of both 'pressure ' and 'support ' by including the Teaching Awards and GTCE within its remit. In add-on, the same authorities Green Paper besides served to assail the evident collectivized civilization of instructors that had built up by presenting single wage inducements linked to public presentation direction. ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999, p.32 )
Contained within the 'threshold agreements ' were both force per unit area to alter a civilization through a entirely unproved, individualized, incentive strategy and support through the add-on of 100s of 1000000s of lbs of excess support ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Introduced within a year-and-a-half of their coming to power, the Labour authorities 's Green Paper was efficaciously representative of their 'Strategy for the Profession ' ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) . Equally good as the threshold agreements and public presentation direction, the GTCE and Teaching Awards, the aforesaid Green Paper from the Department for Education & A ; Employment besides includes the National College for School Leadership, a School Performance Award strategy, and a national Fast Track strategy for 'talented trainees and instructors ' to further their committedness to professional development throughout their callings ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) . The Green Paper itself borrowed from the James Report of 1972 's recommendations in developing a model consisting of " three distinct, and every bit of import, elements " – ( a ) the authorities 's preparation precedences including numeracy and literacy ; ( B ) school precedences ; and ( degree Celsius ) recognizing instructors single development demands from assessment ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) .
Richard Harrison, the Department for Education & A ; Employment functionary responsible for implementing the antecedently recognised Green Paper proposals ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) on professional development, recognised the purpose of public presentation direction and the threshold would hold forced instructors to better with ministerial backup from Estelle Morris ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) . Launched merely before the general election in May 2001, this scheme included a scope of advanced signifiers of instructor larning antecedently promoted as a authorities scheme before. In making his decisions, Harrison looked to pull on the latest research that included surveies which sought the positions of instructors on the sorts of professional development they wanted ( Cordingley et al. , 2003 ) . The research identified the signifier of professional development which had the greatest potency for raising pupil achievement – collaborative professional development. Despite unprecedented buy-in from representative administrations and instructors themselves, unluckily the scheme proved slightly ephemeral since it was thought of as excessively unimportant ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) .
At the same clip, nevertheless, a figure of other structural factors served to sabotage the scheme that had been put in topographic point by the authorities at this clip. For one thing, the authorities 's new Standards and Effectiveness Unit had its ain precedences – to present its 'Literacy & A ; Numeracy Strategies ' and tackle weakness schools. The 1999 Green Paper entitled 'Teachers Meeting the Challenge of Change ' gave drift to the constitution of the National College for School Leadership to further profit the instruction profession ( Department for Education & A ; Employment, 1999 ) . This was a contemplation of the fact that act uponing leading through a authorities bureau had served to go a top precedence peculiarly given headteachers ' slightly hard relationship sing the authoritiess 'Literacy & A ; Numeracy Strategies ' ( Knocks, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . This has efficaciously come to intend that doing certain caput instructors are effectual pedagogic leaders is a cardinal strategic purpose for any authorities. To this consequence the OECD 's comparatively recent survey entitled 'Improving School Leadership ' ( Pont et al. , 2008 ) served to corroborate this cardinal strategic purpose as a cardinal aspiration in instruction internationally across a varied array of legal powers and civilizations. At the same clip, nevertheless, effectual pedagogic leading demands for national authoritiess to be confident in the accomplishments and abilities of its leaders. As a consequence, Harrison was therefore in the funny state of affairs of holding created a buy-in scheme which had the capacity to convey about cardinal alterations in schoolroom pattern to profit both the profession and the kids and immature people seeking to foster their instruction therein ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
However, two events efficaciously conspired to extinguish the authorities 's CPD Strategy in 2003. The first was a minor support crisis which proved peculiarly damaging to primary schools with a position to presenting freshly agreed school work force reforms like planning and readying clip ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Then, secondly, as a consequence of force per unit area from headteachers the authorities decided to take the pealing fence from most of its grants doing the National CPD Strategy slightly vulnerable ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . That there has long been tenseness in authorities policy for instructors is exemplified by the replacement to the 2001 CPD Strategy entitled the 'Strategy for the Professional Development of the Children 's Workforce in Schools 2009-12 ' ( Teacher Development Agency, 2009 ) in demoing how the Labour authorities had learnt the lessons of the old scheme. This new scheme was strong on the leading of CPD in schools and emphasised its belief in CPD being 'a right and duty for all members of the work force ' including a mixture of school based activity, coaching and mentoring with external specializer input holding the greatest impact on results for kids and immature people ( Teacher Development Agency, 2009 ) .
There were still limits to this new scheme, nevertheless, with there being a deficiency of grounds of as to how an just right or entitlement to CPD might be secured Failure to make full such spreads high spots the failings and insufficiency of authorities attacks to professional development. It besides shows that authoritiess have yet to to the full understand instructors ' corporate self-efficacy is non dependent on a leading construction entirely that wholly controls and mediates entree to basic professional entitlements ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . But, whilst this deficiency of acknowledgment surely led to the aforesaid 2001 scheme being terminated, it might non look that a long-dead enterprise from a old authorities is worth much attending. The fact is that to some it was the lone enterprise which had the possible to work out jobs antecedently highlighted in authorities research ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . This is because any authorities with an involvement in raising criterions has to larn the obvious lessons from the premature stoping of something. First, it has to internalize and prioritize the importance of instructor acquisition and so look to larn from national and international research on what works by pulling on past experiences and histories both inside and outside its civil service ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
With a position to fostering this treatment it is besides interesting to see the School Workforce Agreement 's destiny that was conceived as 'Professionalism & A ; Trust – The Future of Teachers & A ; Teaching ' to basically alter the work force ( Morris, 2001 ) Based on European constructs of societal duologue, the proposals have sought to present 'something for something ' by cut downing instructor work load by 'remodelling ' the school work force to raise criterions through the employment of 1000s of excess support staff to take on administrative and learning work ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . The job is the School Workforce Agreement proved to be an understanding that was and is slightly controversial with the NUT in peculiar refusing to subscribe. That this proved to be the instance is because, harmonizing to the Plowden Report undertaken by the authorities ( Plowden, 1967 ) , there was apprehensible anxiousness about using learning helpers and leting them to learn unsupervised ( Cambridge Primary Review, 2009, p.xx ) .
In a Department for Children, Schools & A ; Families commissioned survey entitled 'Deployment & A ; Impact of Support Staff in Schools ' a negative relationship was found to be between the sum of extra support provided by support staff and the academic advancement of students ( Blatchford et al. , 2009 ) . This meant it was possible to reason the negative consequence was on advancement over the school twelvemonth and terminal of twelvemonth attainment. ( Blatchford et al. , 2009 ) In the paper entitled 'Teachers Under Pressure ' it was found five old ages after the School Workforce Agreement was implemented primary instructors mean on the job hours had increased marginally along with the hours of school leaders, whilst the on the job hours of secondary instructors decreased marginally ( Galton & A ; MacBeath, 2008 ) . The ground for this is because any decreases in work load have been countered by the effects of other enterprises ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . With this in head, the first academic analysis of the School Workforce Agreement entitled 'Industrial Relations in Education – Transforming the School Workforce ' ( Carter, Stevenson & A ; Passy, 2010 ) has come to an even more distressing decision because " it is possible to reason that work force reform represents a farther separation of construct from executing in instruction, whereby those with direction functions assume increased importance in planing and keeping instructors ' work, whilst the bulk of the work force find their work progressively codified and policed " ( Carter, Stevenson & A ; Passy, 2010, p.141 ) .
As has antecedently been recognised, the cardinal authorities schemes for bettering the learning profession were based in numeracy and literacy. However, the inquiry is whether such schemes, along with their replacement, the 'National Primary Strategy ' , have really worked as a scheme for bettering the instruction profession ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) . Stannard & A ; Huxford 's book entitled 'The Literacy Game – The Story of the National Literacy Strategy ' is a rare analysis of such scheme with a position to accomplishing " literacy instruction, along with literacy criterions, were on a tableland and neither were good plenty " . ( Stannard & A ; Huxford, 2007 ) . At the same clip, nevertheless, despite the schemes being " viewed really positively " within the profession by instructors they were besides " viewed as an look of the authorities 's deficiency of trust in the instruction profession " ( Webb & A ; Vulliamy, 2006, p.151 ) . But the statements there have been betterments in practise and criterions are every bit strong as statements to the contrary – although there is a demand to find whether they have a permanent impact. However, the backdown by Gordon Brown 's Labour authorities of the ?200 million spent yearly on the authorities schemes from 2011 was hardly noticed by the media despite being a major cut in support ( Bangs, et Al, 2010, at Chapter 4 ) .
Overall, from the analysis that has been undertaken as portion of this survey, it can be concluded that the history of efforts by consecutive authoritiess to better instructor acquisition has proved to be slightly patchy and frequently misdirected. A cardinal constituent of Labour 's 1997 reform scheme like bettering criterions in the rudimentss in primary schools could last merely a little longer than the National Strategy itself. Hundreds of experient advisers with a deep cognition of literacy and numeracy have or will confront redundancy or redisposition. The schemes ' failure to implant their part in the life and work of schools will disperse an priceless resource. A 'culture of conformity ' served to rule Brown 's Labour authorities 's concluding effort at resuscitating a national professional development scheme for instructors since the demand all instructors should follow on a regular basis with a license to rehearse was based on the rule conformity leads to betterment. However, other efforts at reform straight focused on instructors altering their practise do non look to hold been rather so effectual since the history of authorities support for instructors in the schoolroom has been taken to supply ample stuff for larning future lessons.

Getting a perspective
Some students would like to sound like native speakers & I'm sure we all know some learners like this. And it would be lovely if all of our students could sound like native speaker but unfortunately for the majority this is hardly a reasonable expectation. So a degree of awareness on what level is required of individual levels can help to put this area into perspective.

Past Winners of the Teacher of the Week
Deborah Good
The Center for Instructional Development and Educational Research (CIDER) recognizes Deborah Good, associate professor of Human Nutrition, Foods and Exercise, for using student-based technology, accompanied by critical thinking exercises to increase student learning in all the courses she teaches.
Dr. Good has taught a variety of courses with the main (and most important) goal of instilling life skills and confidence in her students for continuing their learning once they graduate. Her teaching approach can be summarized by three goals: (1) To develop communication skills, (2) to address the range of student learning styles with effective pedagogies, and (3) to integrate current research and critical thinking strategies. As the instructor for a senior writing and oral presentation-intensive course, HNFE 4004 with about 30 students per semester, Dr. Good believes that students in science disciplines should be able to communicate research findings both to the public and to fellow scientists. To address the range of student learning styles with effective pedagogies, Dr. Good has taken many of the trainings offered by TLOS/NLI and CIDER, and has received a Technology-enhanced Course Design Specialist certificate and Master Online Instructor certificate. Students use technology every day in their social lives, and Dr. Good tries to take advantage of their familiarity with these platforms and integrate technology. She also routinely uses the current scientific literature in all of her courses, and teaches methods for critically evaluating content of these articles. She says, "While students don't always "get" the importance of reading the current literature, I think most eventually see how this training benefits them."
Dr. Good's students appreciate the attention she puts into the instruction she delivers to them. She received a "Thank a Teacher" note in 2015 thanking her for "the time and enthusiasm that she put into teaching the class". On another assignment, a student stated, "I liked the assignments that everyone had to post because they simplified difficult concepts & made them funny or interesting, & easier to remember". And with regards to her approach to maximizing the effectiveness of the Scale-Up Classroom, one student commented, "It was very helpful getting to learn some of the material before class and then getting to absorb what was being discussed, instead of constantly writing down notes".
Past highlights of Dr. Good's teaching accomplishments include selection as one of eight Lilly Teaching Fellows (UMASS-Amherst), and the Assessment of Student Learning with Technology Award (UMASS-Amherst), and multiple funded grants including, USDA Higher Education Challenge Grant (2007, $139,000 Virginia Tech), 4-VA Competitive Teaching-Research Grant (2015, $22,000, Virginia Tech), ICAT mini grant (2016, $3000, Virginia Tech). She has also authored multiple peer-reviewed papers related to pedagogy, and present her research at National and International conferences on pedagogy.

You feel the bloody fingerprints of it on your subconscious as it rips its way free. I saw the slash and spill of blood as the knife—her best knife, her meat knife—hit a throat and sliced. I went from the sight of the worn boards and dirty window glass of a run-down shack to that of a stained ceiling. From standing to lying in a house as dead as the people who'd lived in it. I touched the pain, a player all its own in this game, and my hand came away red. It did, though, and it made sense that it would be the same as blood. I sold paper bags full of plump, gnat-ridden berries for a dollar to people driving by. it made me realize, for the first time, that wasn't the way things were, not always. Now there was only scattered rock and an abandoned well. The plastic of it was shiny and sleek against my skin. That, in turn, meant a steady stream of twenties and fifties flapping their wings elsewhere.
Everything in its place—just as it had been the first time. I'd recognized that since I held one for the first and last time sixteen years ago. A strong wind could take it down and had once or twice in a good old Georgia thunderstorm. Being trash, I promptly punched that smug punk in the nose so he'd know what it was like to be me. Sure, Tess chattered nonstop from sunup to sundown about anything and nothing, while Glory was sneaky and wild as a feral cat, but that's who they were.

I started a new project - This is an afghan/blanket for a housewarming gift for my in-laws. They are moving the beginning of March. It's going quite well so far. I'm not a huge fan of the yarn-overs at the beginning of the pattern though... At least not until I switched to circular needles. The pattern can be found on Ravelry here.

Didn't do much of what I thought I would today. Just to beautiful not to enjoy the porch and walks with Fred.
Better do those things tomorrow as Friday is fast approaching and need to get the car washed and pack.
So I will post the last pictures of the whorl wind trip at 80 miles an hour.
By the way I am doing the driving this trip.
Oh blogger has fixed the picture button!
This is my view from the dirty motel. Nicest thing about it.
Well that's all for now. Hope to have something more to report

I love that mural and the story it tells. Thanks for posting. I'm glad you enjoyed the lazy day.ReplyDelete
Love the train mural. We grew up beside the train tracks, like 50' from the house!! One old engineer would throw candy to us kids. I think it had stopped just before our house at the feed mill or lumber yard in our little town. Great memories....ReplyDelete
Good morning John,ReplyDelete
I wish the truck had't been parked there it was sure cool.
I did enjoy the lazy day but today I better get things done.
Glad you stopped by.
Hi Sunny,
The train runs right behind the motel and runs like every half hour all night long.
Your memories sound great.
Thanks for stopping in for a read.

bits of glass
green without envy by =Miladydaisy on deviantART
Bits of glass. Little pieces of rounded, colorful, harmless glass. It's not to say that they can't be broken and can therefore potentially cut, but just as they are they are as good as mute, being not pointed at all.
It's a metaphor. Find it.

my gay marriage/civil union opinion
Warning: you will probably form an opinion and get pissed off if you continue reading.
but you are allowed the posting of your opinion in the comments, so it's fair.
I'm sick of the whole argument over gay marriage and civil unions. Bored with it. It's absolutely stupid to argue the point. Because at the heart of it, only the rights allowed couples are really all that matter. So here's my opinion:
Personally, I don't care if one wants to make his/her roommate, brother, sister, next door neighbor, boss, cat, or goldfish his beneficiary of his estate with the same rights as a spouse... I think that it should be allowed legally outside of a marriage contract. Right of survivorship, contractual obligations and purchases (homes, cars, life insurance...), personal wealth and assets... I personally think everyone should be able to make decisions and enter into such agreements as these without legaleze such as "marriage" or "civil union".
Personally, I think the whole terminology vs. rights is a bunch of bull, no matter if it's gay rights, hetero rights, marriage rights, or the like.
Traditionally, legal contracts required legal unions because legal unions were considered binding. Well, it's fairly easy to get a divorce these days, so the idea that a married couple will continue to be married for the duration of a 60 month car loan is almost a fairy tale in an age where the divorce rate is over 50%, so those antiquated notions of "shared responsibility" and "lasting committed relationship" don't really mean anything to a lending institution when it comes to the bottom line.
Two non-sexual (or sexually intimate), non-related people should be able to buy a home together, purchase a car together, share health insurance plans (through an employer), establish net worth together (wealth), combine money, etc... but there are a lot of limitations for how two non-related people combine their estates/wealth/assets/ etc.
And here the problem gets really stupid. The laws are set up, so that -- for example -- credit card companies can only go after the account holder, not others able to sign on the account. So say a husband never adds his wife to an account, then she cannot be held accountable for the charges on it. (I learned this the hard way with my ex when I didn't put him on my account but allowed him to sign on it.) Really, this is an easy fix. Make any and all users on an account equally responsible for it. There don't need to be any "civil union" laws to that end.
And on that note, such simple fixes could be (and should be) applied to health insurance policies, contract purchases, etc... and the entire fight over whether a gay marriage will be ceremoniously recognized will become closer to moot.
Now on the note about religious recognition. No, we as a society should not change nor try to change Christianity or any other religion to force it to accept gay marriage. And here's why:
(If you are offended by specific citations as evidence, quit reading now, because I'm going to cite the Bible as evidence... seeing as how the Bible is the book by which Christianity is founded and referenced)
Leviticus 18:22
"You [God to Moses, giving him the basis of Jewish law] are not to go to bed with a man as with a woman; it is an abomination."
According to the most basic and strictest sense of Judaism/Christianity, homosexuality is an abomination. That is the belief of those religions, and by freedom of religion, practitioners are free to believe such.
Forcing change upon those religions is a direct infringement on that freedom of religion. Not to mention it's no better or different than forcing non-religious types to participate in prayer in public.
So I don't think changing someone's right to believe in their own religion is the answer.
Now for those that uphold the "homosexuality as abomination" religious viewpoint:
(warning, another biblical quote)
The same God that condemns homosexuality in Leviticus says in
Romans 14:13
"Therefore let us not judge one another..."
Christians should not take it upon themselves to force the rest of the known world against homosexuality simply because they believe it to be wrong. According to Jewish law, it is, for them, but not everyone is striving to be held accountable to Jewish law.
So my steadfast opinion is thus:
Claim as your significant other whomever you want to, with whatever phrases best suits your needs. Get religion out of the legalizing of rights with regards to any/all relationships, because we've already separated church and state as a nation anyway. And quit trying to make it a religious issue.
Who you partner yourself with is not a matter of the church. And the STATE should be held more accountable for allowing rights between conjoined peoples that are not traditionally nor heterosexually married.
And just about everyone should get over themselves. It'd be a lot simpler if we would simply deal with the issue of rights and leave everything else where it belongs -- in personal opinion.

romeo is prince charming
Cinderella by ~JacquiJax on deviantART
To Juliet, Romeo is her Prince Charming.
And after dancing the night away, she tore herself out of his arms to race home before she got caught out. Good thing she left that darned shoe behind in the style of Cinderella...

marshmallow beach
The beach blanket is slightly covered in a dusting of sand, kicked there haphazardly as they giggled and chased each other to the surf where the waves lick the land.
Forgotten marshmallows wait speared and cold, as the sun still shines. Maybe the ants will get to them before dark falls, maybe not. Maybe the two lovers, acting years younger than they are, will return in time to sear the edges with fire and tempt themselves with the tasty gooey treat and with each other.
Their splashing and laughter is contagious. I smile, hoping that I will be so deliriously in love and given over to sophomoric romanticism when I'm their age....

The lock by =nemisis11 on deviantART
She locked her heart against all pain, and blocked out the love.
Too many times men played games with the intent of owning her
or worse, and too many times she played into their hands
or worse. Standing before her is a man who is offering honest eyes
and a key to the lock. Standing before her is a chasm she must
decide to jump across or not, with nothing but his waiting arms
as a safety net.

Still Life - Plum Flowers by ~EverydaySoul on deviantART
There's something about the word "beauty" that inspires a score of stereotypes and social definitions and superficial looks.
I suppose that it's defined as differently as there are people, things, places, and ways to define it.
Is it that skinny model in high heels and haute couteure posing for a camera? Is it the endless list of stars gracing a red carpet for a back-patting awards ceremony? Is it the overweight girl with the honest smile and the sparkle in her eyes? Is it the father kissing his young daughter on the forehead? Is it a field of wild flowers or the fierce crashing of twenty foot waves just off shore? Is it monochrome or colorful? Is it in you?

for weary travelers
road to nowhere II by =Miladydaisy on deviantART
Sometimes "the road not taken" isn't the one we wish we had taken, when looking backwards.
Sometimes life's journey costs too much, gains too little, seems empty as this road. The strong persevere and make something out of it anyway. The able get through it. The rest become various forms of road kill or road markers.
So this photo, and whatever you make of it, is my story for all the weary travelers.

Two lovers
Some beauty is so breathtaking that you forget to breathe.
Sometimes it's in the eyes, or the smile. Sometimes it's in the line of a hip, the curve of a leg, the extension of an arm thrown over the back of a chair.
Sometimes it's found in character. Other times it's in something untangible, like a sunset or a lightning strike. Others it's in something perfectly tangible, like a delicate flower or an earnest hug.
But when you experience it -- the breathlessness of it -- you are not unchanged by it.
The greatest love story I ever heard was about the moment two lovers met. They weren't looking for each other, and they didn't expect to find each other. But as they tell it, there was a definitive moment when they both forgot to breathe, completely caught up in each other's eyes and smiles. And every moment of rapture for them can easily be described as exactly like these two calla lilies, intimately and comfortably wrapping themselves into and around each other.
Sometimes love is simply that pure, simply that simple. What I learned from those two lovers is that sometimes all I've retold here is all you need to know.

I am tapped out of inspiration today. I'm bleeding,
much like these clouds, a dark blood red fire
that is about to scorch through me as it burns the sky.

the jazz door
the jazz door by =Miladydaisy on deviantART
The saxophone on the door opened into a dark club, tastefully decorated in blue neon lights and dimly lit vinyl booths. In the middle were wooden chairs around small round tables large enough for a votive candle and a couple of drinks, maybe an ashtray.
On Thursday nights, it was standing room only.
On Thursday nights, the hottest local jazz band played, like they had played every night for the last two years. On Friday nights they played a larger venue, and rocked it too, but the feel of the small club was unbeatable, and the acoustics were perfect. It was intimate enough for a couple to hear each other without screaming, and loud enough that no one else was gonna hear them either.
I tell you all this because I want you to understand that this club was where the music thrived. So when they shut it down, because the owner died, because there were no next of kin and because it was settled as part of his estate, paying off his debts... when all those things happened, the music died.
The music was part of the soul of that place, but that jazz door was the doorway to the music. Somehow the closing of the jazz door closed the door to their hearts. No one really can explain it, but it was a lot like the couple that dies together within days of each other because they don't want to live without the other. Plain as that.
I hear the saxophone player bought that door and put it on the front of his house. But I also hear he sold his sax and never played another note.
Funny how some doors work like that.

Your article on what size you need for a family garden is very helpful, except. . . at the end it says you need to take into consideration if you plan on preserving vegetables. I do, but from there it just gives a list of how many plants of certain vegetables you need per person. Does that include how many plants per person if you are serving fresh, AND preserving? Or should I double it per person? I have all winter to figure this out, but I would like to know so I can start composting and figuring out how much lime I will need for the size. Thanks for your answer in advance!

Well I sold the last 2 tutus I made so today I went and bought more material. And since I have this problem where I can't walk into a fabric shop and walk out with just what I went in to get...I ended up with some fleece and stuff for my sister's quilt! Oops!
Here are the colours for the tutus....
The combinations are endless!
(Sorry for the crappy colour but we are having really grey weather here at the moment. And it's freezing. Great sewing/creating weather but not so great for showing you! The pink above is the same pink as the purple and pink tutu from the last post)

Ever since I first started working on "Sing Me a Song" with my little 'Steampunk' style Bird, I just felt that he was missing something.
Finally coming up with this wing and tail combination.
I had a 'brilliant idea' !
(Well, I thought it was brilliant)
I photocopied the block,
Then cut out the pieces I wanted to alter - all without removing a single stitch.
At 100% scale and in Colour, it gave me the advantage of "Having my fabric... and using it too!"
When I fussy cut out a piece and it didn't look right...
I just stuck it back into the page and cut out another one!
As you can see, my fabric would have been quite a mess in the quest to find the perfect Tail-Feathers.
And he can continue to sing to his little Heart's Desire!

FCC Reveals Phone Side Of Ultra Music Phone
Article Comments 13
Dec 6, 2006, 5:07 PM by (staff)
Documents contained in the recent FCC approval of Samsung's Ultra Music F300 reveal the handset's phone side, which Samsung has been careful to hide during its launch this week. The majority of the phone side is dominated by a large keypad that looks similar to the T629's navigation and numeric keys. There is a small display that looks capable of displaying two lines, and a large camera as well as a speaker. The Ultra Video's swiveling form factor will require a different layout, however it is likely the keys, screen and other features will be similar. Samsung will officially reveal the specifics of the phone side of these handsets at a later date, according to a company spokeswoman.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Clears FCC with Single Approval
The FCC this week approved a pair of new Samsung phones that are almost certainly the new Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge (or equivalent). Unlike previous generations of the flagship phone, Samsung was able to have all U.S.
Review: HTC U Ultra
HTC's flagship handset for the year is the U Ultra, a stunning slab of metal and glass. This powerful Android smartphone combines an attractive design with a solid spec sheet.
Hands On with the ZTE Axon M
ZTE is trying something different with the Axon M. Rather than push out another boring slab, ZTE created an interesting Android smartphone with twin folding displays that can be set in a number of different and useful configurations.
Hands On with the HTC U Ultra and U Play
The HTC U Ultra and U Play are the company's new high-end phones, replacing the iconic HTC 10 and One series. They sport flowing 3D curved glass on the back, and high-end specs.

Tales from the ArXiv: "Sticky Physics of Joy"
Here is a small piece of advice: Do NOT begin the title of your article with "Sticky physics of joy". Oy vey. Or maybe all of the extra attention it gets is worth putting just about everybody's mind in a bad place?

The 18th century banking magnate Baron Rothschild laid the foundation for contrarian investing when he said, the time to buy is when theres blood in the streets. And if there were ever a time to take advantage of this advice, it may be right now.
For the last few years weve seen prices for gold and silver collapse to such an extent that mining companies around the world are cutting hundreds of millions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs from their operations. Its gotten so bad that many are moving into unrelated businesses just to stay afloat.
The following must-see video from Future Money Trends highlights why major investors are piling into resources as if their lives depended on it and explains a strategic approach that could pay significant dividends as prices for precious metals inevitably rise in coming months.
Devastation… an unmitigated disaster… the worst bear market in half a century…
Home to the junior mining companies, the TSX Venture Exchange is down 85% in nominal terms and 90% down in real terms.
The smart money is getting in. Ray Dalio, George Soros and Carl Icahn are all making big entries into this sector…
When it comes to the mining sector theres blood in the streets.
This is, by all accounts, an environment in the resource sector not seen for over 50 years. But with investors around the world losing confidence in their governments and the broader economy, its only a matter of time before the worst bear market in half a century turns to the upside.
If youre paying attention you can see the veritable blood in the streets that Baron Rothschild described.
Precious metals may have been left for dead by retail investors, financial advisers, and most mainstream pundits, but that usually means one thing: Its time to buy.

The Mouse and his Child
This is one of a few books that I read when I was a child that I have looked up and ordred or bought now as an adult to re- read . Partially I wanted to do this for nostalgia, to re-live the delight I had in the first reading or in this case, it had been read to me. The other motive I have is to discover if the book holds as much magic as it did for me as a child, or if it 's not as good reading as an adult. The last reason is to find my way back into that enchanted land part of my brain where ceratin ingredients from each of these books lurk as peices of a magic puzzle. They spark the way down the secret passageway from the land of the half remembered to the world of the partly imagined. From this place, most of my inspiration for paintings and stories comes, I would like to pull from here my own story, that I can write down someday. I just finished reading this book again. Actually, it was the first time I read it, because the first time it was read to me by my mother when I was little. It holds up very well for an adult read. This story had stuck in my head, but not everything about the plot, I could only recall little prize peices, like "The last visible dog" and Bonzo dog food, and moods from the story, but didn't know what was going to happen next and how the end played out along this second reading, so it was fun. There were parts I hadn't remembered at all, like the Woodchuck who was into abstract mathematical thought, and the fact that nature is so brutal in this story, in the first part of their journey a rat gets eaten by a badger, a whole army of shrews get eaten by a couple of weasels, which promplty get eaten by owls, and further into the story nature continues in this brutal circle of life type plot twists, something I 'm pleased to see is not considered to rough or graphic for children's book material.
