Will the LOCKED signal assert if CLKFB is not used on the DCM?
The LOCKED signal will assert when CLKFB is not connected to a feedback signal when the only DCM outputs used are CLKFX or CLKFX180.
If any other DCM outputs are used, CLKFB should be connected to the CLK0 (or CLK2X for Virtex/-E and Virtex-II) signal via BUFG/BUFGMUX for internal feedback, or via IBUFG for external feedback.
When CLKFB is not used, the LOCKED signal indicates that DCM is locked to a valid frequency. When CLKFB is used, the LOCKED signal indicates that DCM is locked to a valid frequency with a proper deskew to CLKIN.
If CLKFB is not used, the attribute CLK_FEEDBACK must be set to "NONE."
For more information on the CLK_FEEDBACK attribute, see the DCM primitive description in the Xilinx Software Manuals at Manuals -> Libraries Guide:
NOTE: Beginning in version 5.1i of the ISE design tools, the implementation tool will report an error if DCM is configured with DLL outputs(CLK0/CLK90/CLK180/CLK270/CLK2X/CLK2X180/CLKDV), but the CLKFB is not connected.

- Make recommendations to increase email opens and click-through rates
- Review your social media profiles and recommend ways to improve your effectiveness (including recommending focusing on a single platform rather than all platforms)

- Discuss the optimum CRM / Marketing Automation / Website integration tools for you to use
- Attract more website traffic and capture leads
- Nurture prospects and educate them until they're ready to buy

- Wow your customers during their "onboarding" and again as you deliver ultimate customer satisfaction
- Upsell and resell more customers
- Gain more referral business because you have an increase in satisfied customers (aka fans)

Spreading The Love – Camerata Without Boundaries
Posted on April 25, 2012
Manchester Camerata's concert on Saturday 28 April 2012 – Portrait of Love – will also be seen by audiences across the UK and around the world thanks to digital partnerships in the North east of England, BBC Music Magazine and Medici.tv.
Manchester Camerata's Portrait of Love concert will be bursting out of the concert hall in more ways than one to reach audiences across the UK and around the world.
The orchestra has teamed up for the first time with BBC Music Magazine to stream the performance – starring the mezzo-soprano Anna Stéphany with Manchester Camerata conducted by Gábor Takács-Nagy – on the magazine's website at www.classical-music.com.
And for the third time this season, the prestigious classical music broadcaster Medici.tv will be carrying the show live, and then offering the concert after the event to subscribers.
In addition to all this, Camerata has been working with a consortium of top flight orchestras to bring its music to a wider audience in the North East of England.
North East of England Venues
The show will also be seen in the North East of England at the Alnwick Playhouse, Northumberland, The Maltings Theatre and Cinema, Berwick- upon-Tweed and Gala Theatre, Durham.
The project to bring Manchester Camerata's music to venues in the North East is part of collaboration involving Northern Sinfonia, orchestra of The Sage Gateshead, and the London-based ensemble Aurora.
It was just eight projects out fo 500 applications which successfully attracted half a million pounds worth of funding from the Digital Research and Development Fund for Arts and Culture run by the Arts Council England, the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and NESTA.
Manchester Camerata's Head of Creative Programming, Manus Carey, says it's an exciting development. "We are committed to using digital technology both within our programming and also to bring the orchestra's work to as broad and diverse an audience as possible through our website and live concert streaming. We are very excited to be partnering with the Sage Gateshead and Aurora orchestra on this research project"

Even though this video is from Marcus' Choreography 2 Go series, it has pretty good production quality. The set is very plain, all white - white floor, white wall in back - except for two Choreography 2 Go posters hanging in the back. The camera work and sound quality are fine, maybe not as good as Cathe or Firm but certainly acceptable. There is no problem with the lighting. The sound track is great! This video is copyright 2001, which seems to be the best year for production values for the Marcus videos I've seen.
The video is in regular workout format: 7 min hi-lo warmup, 14 more min of hi-lo, 24 min of step, 14 min of abs, and 4 min stretch; total 63min. He addresses his remarks to instructors. He teaches all separate combos with no TIFFT. The choreography is athletic rather than dancy - lots of squat and lunge segments (during which Marcus complains about how much pain he is in). This would be a good one for anyone who wants to try Marcus, but was turned off by the bad production quality, or was afraid of the complex choreography.
Instructor comments:
Marcus is charming as usual. He does a lot of joking around with the two background exercisers, who are both women this time.

Yes, most rich people are rich because counterfeiting and fraud are legal as long as you do it through a corporation charted or licenced to commit fraud and counterfeiting legally.
Also, have you noticed that all actual work seems to be done solely by the working poor and middle class? Do you say Donald Trump, for example, actually building or manufacturing, hauling or innovating anything, personally?

C) The poor generally will squander large sums of money because they do not know how to manage it. They do not know how to use the tool they would be given. This is why people that win millions in the Lotto are broke in 5 years or less. No one bothers to teach them how to manage it.
How many here have been on both sides of the fence? I venture few if any, yet without knowing the wealthy side or the truly poor side are quick to jump mostly on the wealthy and cry about them having something they do not.
Do the wealthy look down upon the poor...no, not anymore than anyone else as it is mostly, out of sight, out of mind. Do the poor hate the wealthy...no but some do and it's fueled by jealousy, lack of education, beliefs or a combination of factors.

plus, once that lump is 'squandered' on the above, hows that gonna lead to a higher paying job? just cycle reboots.
this is why when the rich OWN EVERYTHING --- LOCK, STOCK, and BARREL --- you get it ALL BACK! and at the end of the week --- poor guy broke paying for life --- profits of everything purchased goes to the RICH via investments.
which are... where you pay someone else to make sure you keep getting more and others get less..
do poor people have the LUXURY of PAYING someone to make their money some money?
go ahead deny this... I DARE YOU..
oops, here comes the snide baseless insult or remark to attempt and derail.

Why does a family from India come to America and in a decade or two they go from having basically nothing to being wealthy? First they have one apartment with lets say 8 people living there, then ALL grownups get a minimum paying job and they combine all income to support the family. As they gain skill and build savings by living extremely simple one day they buy some old market that they run as a family, they then get another and another. Then they move up to named markets and at some point they are rich.

It happens off of who you know..
It is insult to state other wise. The offshoring of decent jobs and the in-shoring of poor desperate, willing to undercut an American for a job..
you are being dishonest to state "just gotta work harder" "too bad, things are fine, I have a chair in the musical chair economy, or I want one and darn the rest..---> I GOTTA GET MINE.. corrupt system be damned, its all good as long as I get mine"
that attitude is so tired... and doesn't work.
it just ID's you as a shill for the elites slave system.

What does it take to make 30 bucks an hour? That is what people who make less than that need to figure out.

Some people underestimate what it takes to become a driving instructor. It can be an easy job, but it can also be difficult depending on who it is you are teaching to drive. Driving instructors need to have a huge amount of patience and professionalism.
Here are a few skills that are needed to become a driving instructor:
- Good quality driving
- High standard of instructional ability
- Good knowledge of what is included in teaching others to drive
- Great communication skills
- Ability to adapt to different types of people
- Good sense of humour
- Good geographical knowledge
Qualifications and Training
Becoming a driving instructor is not an easy process as it is a very important job with a great amount of responsibility. There are many guidelines and precautions that need to be considered for this.
First of all you need to ensure you are over the age of 21 years old and have held a full UK driving license for over three years. This is just to make sure you have had a fair bit of experience on the roads before you start teaching others. You also need to decide whether you will want to teach in a manual or automatic vehicle.
The next thing that is vital for this field of work is that you have not been disqualified from driving within the last four years, or have six points on your licence. You also need to ensure that you have not been convicted of any other non motoring offences. Once you have cleared these stages, you must get a criminal check for driving instructors carried out.
If you have cleared the criminal check for driving instructors, you can then go on to apply to the Driving Standards Association (DSA) to start the process. To qualify for this, you need to take and pass three qualifying tests. One theory, one practical- which tests your driving ability including vehicle safety questions, and then another practical that tests your instructional ability.
Once you have passed this test you can then apply for your ADI badge.
Going Freelance
There are numerous benefits of freelancing as a driving instructor, for example:
- Flexible schedule
- Greater wages than being employed by a company
- Being your own boss
In fact our freelancer take home pay calculator shows you how much you can expect to take home as a freelancer.
It is difficult to come up with a fixed price to charge your customers per driving lesson. It depends on where abouts you are instructing. Bear in mind you need to ensure the prices cover your time, petrol and the insurance for the car. Prices for driving lessons can vary between £12- £20. It is also beneficial to offer discounts when your customers book in blocks. For example if you charge £10 per lesson, you can offer 10 lessons for £85 when booked as a block. You could even start off with offering the first lesson for free to build up the clientele.
Finding Work as a Freelance Driving Instructor
The best advertising for you will be word of mouth and recommendations by others. When you start off it would be beneficial for you to offer discounts when your customers recommend you. For example offer them a half price driving lesson for every recommended customer that makes a booking. As you are starting off on your own it is best to use the cheapest forms of advertising for your trade so you are not losing money.
You can also get yourself listed in specialist directories, these directories can be found in newspapers, magazines and on the internet. You could also place an ad in your local shop window, supermarket and newspapers.
Having made the decision to give it a go, whether full or part time and whether to set up as a sole trader or limited company, you're going to need a wide range of tax and accountancy advice and support in the early days when setting up as a freelancer.
The most daunting thing about going freelancing for most people is the thought of having to engage with an accountant. At first glance it's easy, you go down to your local high street accountant who quotes you anything from £250 to £600 plus VAT to do your end of year accounts for you.
This sounds great, however what happens if you want to speak to your accountant for advice throughout the year on things like:
- Expenses
- Tax allowances
- Take home pay
- How much you should put aside for your tax bill
- Should you register for the Flat Rate VAT scheme
- Would going limited be beneficial
- If you have a life plan and wish to go travelling, what's the most tax efficient way to run your business
Each time you pick up the phone it is likely you will get charged, in fact every time your accountant sends you a letter you may charged and so you may even get charged if you call to query your invoice! So by the end of the year you could easily be looking at a bill of over £1,000. Easy Accountancy offers you a fixed fee package starting at £60 a month.

Welcome to the world's leading forum on Multiple Sclerosis research, support, and knowledge. For over 10 years, This is MS has provided an unbiased community dedicated to Multiple Sclerosis patients, caregivers, and affected loved ones.
So I don't think it's a done deal that 90%+ of relationships breakdown where one of the partners has MS. Mr Z has always sought to undermine the statistics published by Biogen and it's good to see the reaction against the sort of ropey and insensitive statistic he posted on relationships and MS.
Just call it a day. You tried to destroy the hope of MS patients on the Tysabri forum - I see that you don't post there now that people are posting some good experiences. And now you are telling those of us with MS that 90%+ of us will end up with a broken relationship.

The 'stock item' thing came about a few years ago as a result of grown-up children and their husbands/wives/partners using a visit home to sort out the odd problem - anything from a shot of windscreen washer fluid or a brake-light bulb for their car to a surplus fan heater to take home. The facts that 1) I rarely, no, never dispose of anything I can imagine a use for, 2) I merged households many moons ago when I got married and kept the 'spare' kettle, cutlery, etc, 3) I have sadly cleared the homes of a number of deceased relatives, and 4) I am not short of storage space in outbuildings here - all these mean that I have a lot of stuff which I am happy to distribute around the family if someone has a need for it.
Just recently I seem, accidentally as it were, to have introduced a mobile stock distribution service. A quick trip to Oxford was organised to avoid daughter and son-in-law incurring silly bills for the replacement of a couple of roof slates and the planing of a misfitting door. It was a slight disadvantage that this necessitated transporting a full set of ladders, but the sausage casserole was a worthy reward. While there we noticed that an electrical switch was on its metaphorical last legs so back at home I dipped into the appropriate box and popped one in the post to them.
Then, last week, we hurtled off to south Devon for a first visit to the new home of younger son and daughter-in-law who last month moved from rented accommodation to a very fine converted barn. Into our car went their winter wheels/tyres previously stored in our barn and a heavy oak table they bought on Ebay months ago in anticipation of their move (we had kindly collected this for them from the seller). Also, a small tool kit and a pull-cord light for their bathroom. Ten hours' driving in 2 days but great to see them and their house - and a very fine rib of beef for dinner! And what a lot of space I have now to introduce some more stock.

Tahrir, Thaksim, Maidan. Hundreds of thousands are protesting around the world. From Tunisia to Thailand, from Ukraine to Egypt, governments are overthrown. The images resemble each other. What do leaders with such vastly different ideologies such as the Bolivarian socialist Chavez, the neoliberal tycoon Thaksin, the Islamist Erdogan and the friend of oligarchs Yanukovich have in common? And how are the demonstrations in Spain, Greece and Brazil different from the protests in Turkey, Thailand and Taiwan?
Joshua Kurlantzick from the US Council on Foreign Relations thinks he found a common thread connecting the dots: the rage of the middle classes against the corruption and abuse of power of what he dubs "elected autocrats". Starting from the campaign against the Filipino President Estrada in 2000/01, there have been mass protests in Venezuela (2001-2003), Taiwan (2004 and 2006), Ukraine (2004 and 2013), Kyrgizstan (2005), Thailand (2006, 2008, 2013/14), Bangladesh (2006/07), Kenya (2007/08), Bolivia (2008), Georgia (2003 and 2007), Lebanon (2011), Tunisia (2010/11), Russia (2012), Egypt (2011 and 2012/13), Turkey (2013) and Brazil (2013 and 2014). While the occasions and outcomes of these protests may vary, some (but not all) of these crises seem to follow a remarkably similar script.
With the notable exception of the Arab Spring, all these mass protests were directed against properly elected governments. Despite all shortcomings of their defect democracies, the electorates made active use of their constitutional right to elect the government. Amidst epochal social and economic transformation, clever political entrepreneurs have realized that catering to the hopes and demands of the emerging classes in the provinces is a political game changer. With a policy mix of social welfare, local development and populist handouts, they win election after election. The majority population, until recently excluded from the provision of public goods, shows its gratitude with staunch loyalty at the voting booth. Once in power, popular leaders quickly turn into "elected autocrats", threatening the opposition, silencing media, and undermining democratic institutions. From the perspective of the established elite and middle class, these "elected autocrats" are a threat.
[vision_pullquote style="3″ align=""] Traditional elites are eager to defend status and privilege and happily promote the discourse of national crisis and moral decay. [/vision_pullquote]
Endemic corruption and nepotism breed resentment against democracy. Establishment parties, having failed to update their platforms to cater to the majority population, are losing one election after the other. The desperate middle class in the capital blames democracy for their situation and calls for an authoritarian strong hand to remove the government. Traditional elites are eager to defend status and privilege and happily promote the discourse of national crisis and moral decay. Often it is the militaries who seize the moment to shore up their political power. However, authoritarian intervention does not necessarily break up the backbone of "elected autocrats". With the help of their popular base, leaders such as Thaksin and Chavez managed to return to power. In Egypt and Thailand, the alliance of traditional elites, established middle class and the military responded by cracking down even harder.
How these power struggles end is of course largely determined by the local balance of power. These local differences are important but should not obscure the bigger picture such struggles have in common: a decade long transformation conflict over the adaptation of the political and social order to a new societal reality. Socioeconomic development and globalization transform societies at breakneck speed, thereby overstretching traditional political systems and eroding normative foundations. The needed "update of the operating system", however, is not easy in a context of social conflict. In other words: emerging social classes have terminated the social contract, but the renegotiation of a new social contract faces the resistance of all those who benefit from the status quo.
These are not only the old elites trying to protect status and privilege, but all those who feel rapid transformation turns their world upside down. In less than a generation, fundamental concepts such as time, family, work, or the role of men and women have changed completely. Some people happily embrace the new opportunities, while others feel that the loss of the world they were born into threatens their identities. Fear of social decline gives these social struggles a paranoid, aggressive flavor. It is not a coincidence that in times of rapid change, fascist groups are framing scapegoats for the alleged moral decline, and resort to violent tactics to restore an imagined golden past. As Antonio Gramsci gloomily remarked from his prison cell: "The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear."
In this transformation conflict between the forces of change and forces of restoration, the middle classes indeed play a decisive role. As long as the established middle class sticks with the old elites, the status quo is upheld. If the middle classes make common cause with emerging classes, change will be inevitable. This is why the protests of "young unemployed graduates" (Paul Mason) from Tunis to London, from Wall Street to Madrid are different: here, a precarious middle class protests for better life chances through economic and political change. In Thailand, the established middle class marched to keep their status and privileges. This seems to contradict common knowledge that middle classes are primary drivers of democratization.
Hence, it may be fruitful to further explore the motivations, frustrations and fears of the "raging middle class" in Bangkok. It is not easy to recognize middle class grievances through the noise of nationalist, sexist, violent-prone, and anti-democratic protest rhetoric. The orientation of the Bangkokian citizens has not always been anti-democratic. On the contrary, in the 1990s it was the urban civil society that installed a liberal democracy after decades of military authoritarianism. Today, some of the same protagonists believe that "Western democracy does not fit Thai society". How can one explain this change of mind?
Bangkok's middle class was horrified to find itself in a permanent minority in the new electoral democracy. The Democrat Party, for decades the political vehicle of the establishment, lost election after election against the party vehicles of the Shinawatra clan. Telecom tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra had realized that a mixture of Keynesian local developmentalism, social welfare schemes and populist handouts not only triggered an economic boom in the long neglected provinces, but also won him a loyal supporter base in the populous regions of the North and Northeast. By undermining constitutional safeguards, the "iron fist in a glove" style of the Shinawatra governments made the position of the middle class minority even more precarious. The bloody wars against alleged drug dealers in the North and Malay-Muslim separatists in the South cost thousands of innocent lives.
In Bangkok, the high-handed Thaksin harassed the opposition, media and civil society. The Bangkok middle class felt threatened. The mass protests in 2006, 2008 and 2013 were partly triggered by the abuse of power by the government. What really mobilized hundreds of thousands, however, was the impotent anger over corruption. If corruption really spiraled out of control, or only the perception of it, is subject of fierce debates. What matters more is the convergence between electoral democracy and the old patronage system. Behind the institutional facades, the patronage system controls political, economic and social life all over Thailand. In the provinces, the patronage system takes the form of a more violent, mafia-esque form of feudalism. Any successful patron rewards his supporters, protects his clients, favors his kin, distributes the spoils, cuts out non-supporters and crushes his enemies.
The elected representatives bring this logic from the provinces into the capital. The middle class sees these practices simply as the most vulgar form of corruption and nepotism. The problem was quickly identified: the uneducated and uncivilized rural people (derisively called "buffalos") who sell their votes to the highest bidder. From the perspective of well-to-do Bangkokians, the social welfare and development programs were nothing more than the cynical attempt to buy votes. Soon, a paranoid fear emerged that these "populist programs" would lead to state bankruptcy. Despite the fact that Bangkokians pay below average taxes and benefit above average from public spending, the established middle classes felt cheated. In other words, the Bangkokian middle class fears "to be robbed by corrupt politicians who buy the votes of the greedy poor with populist schemes".
[vision_pullquote style="3″ align="right"] The short circuit conclusion of conservative protesters: if the uneducated masses keep on electing "bad people" into office, then their right to vote needs to be suspended. [/vision_pullquote]
In a Buddhist political cosmos, this is an untenable situation. Instead of moral "good people", now corrupt "bad people" were at the top of the social hierarchy whose behavior brought more suffering into the world. The short circuit conclusion of conservative protesters: if the uneducated masses keep on electing "bad people" into office, then their right to vote needs to be suspended. This reactionary moralist discourse is furthered by the traditional elites who smell the chance to make some headway in the fight over the political and economic control of the country. Under the pretext to restore order and morality, the military and judiciary repeatedly intervened to destroy the political machine of the Shinawatra network. However, despite the dissolution of political party vehicles, political bans, criminal charges, and behind-the-scene interventions, the Shinawatra network made triumphant comebacks at the elections of 2008 and 2011. After the eighteenth military coup in the history of modern Thailand, the junta tries to achieve with a hard hand what its predecessors failed to do: to root out the power base of the Shinawatra network once and for all. Given how far Thai society has already been pluralized and politicized, this attempt to turn back the wheel of history may prove to be a Pyrrhic victory.
On the other hand, protracted transformation conflicts seem to reaffirm the notion that while the majority population can drive democratization processes, democratic consolidation needs a stable social foundation which includes the middle classes. The rage of Bangkok's well-off protesters shows that the established middle class is not satisfied with the current "deal". This is precisely the dilemma of transformation: while a new social contract with equal rights and duties would be in the enlightened interest of all citizens, such a social contract cannot be agreed upon as long as elites and middle classes do not recognize the majority population as equals. The precondition for social solidarity is a collective identity which accepts all subjects as equal members of society. So in order to lay the foundation for a new social contract, the egalitarian and universal normative foundation of this social contract already needs to be widely recognized. That is by no means a theoretical problem. The emerging classes will only be satisfied if they are granted equal opportunities to participate in political, economic, social and cultural life. The provision of full capabilities for all, however, cannot be financed without a significant broadening of tax revenue. In other words: the raging middle classes hold the tax key to the new social contract.
This is why the social conflict can only be solved by a social compromise between all classes. The elites embrace democracy as the only game in town and compete for electoral mandates on a responsive platform. The majority population agrees to limitations of majority rule by the rule of law in return of full capabilities. The middle class benefits from social peace, rule of law, good governance and quality public goods in return for picking up the tax bill.
In order to overcome the transformation with a social contract based on such a social compromise, the political, economic and social order needs to be fundamentally overhauled. Such far-ranging political and social innovations are not easy to implement in a climate of fear and conflict. In the absence of a cultural tradition of social solidarity, it is even harder to build the necessary trust after years of divisive conflict. Maybe the cost of conflict needs to become unbearable before social groups come to realize the benefits of social compromise.
In many societies there is little understanding of the connection between political and economic development and the social ability of innovation. Social innovation is not given, but depends on the ability of society to forge a consensus on the same development path. If social groups feel excluded or threatened in their identities, they will resist change. All around the world, we currently have to witness the pathological excesses of such fear of change. This is why it is indispensable to maintain societal consensus for political and economic development. Such a broad societal consensus can only be built on the basis of a social compromise between all classes.
All those who lay the axe on the social contract to further their narrow interests should take the transformation conflicts around the world as a warning. Social contracts are easier to destroy then to renegotiate. However, as long as economic and social lives are changing, there cannot be an "end of history". The emerging Third Industrial Revolution has already begun to transform Western economies and societies. First struggles over fairer distribution ("Occupy"), deeper participation ("Stuttgart 21",), and property rights ("IPRs") have already sprung up. With progressing economic and social transformation, these struggles over the political and social order will intensify. The transformation conflicts of tomorrow will be fought by us.

New champion crowned on 'Dancing With the Stars'
Hamilton star Jordan Fisher took home the Mirrorball Trophy on season 25 of Dancing With the Stars. Fisher and his partner, Lindsay Arnold, had lived at the top of the leader board all season for obvious reasons.
Fisher is one of the best dancers to be on the show, in recent memory. In fact after he performed his fusion dance, Judge Len Goodman said, "I think you are the most complete male celebrity ever on Dancing With the Stars."
Fisher not only wowed viewers on the dance floor, he also wowed viewers with his singing voice. Halfway through the finale, Fisher joined former pop star Debbie Gibson on stage and belted out some pretty high notes.
Violinist Lindsey Stirling and actor Frankie Muniz came in second and third, respectively.

All these types pronouns can be confusing! I will begin by reviewing yesterday's lesson on relative pronouns.
I will have the students pick up the handout relative pronouns and work quietly to review the concept from yesterday. I will give the students 10 minutes to complete the handout. I will split the handout and have one shoulder partner do the odd numbers and the other shoulder partner do the even numbers. This will break the handout up, give them a decent review, and allow them to use their partners.
Once they have finished, I will have them check their answers with the displayed one on the board. I will even had each student a marker and assign them a number to do on the board. This will get the students up and moving and allow them to validate their work.
To help students understand pronouns and their use, I am going to introduce subject and object pronouns. Once students understand what a pronoun is, learning how to identify it and what to identify by seems to be the next logical step.
First, pass out the Subject and Object guided notes and display Pronouns power point slide on subject and object pronouns. I will have the students work to complete the notes page. I like the to provide guided notes for the students to use as it allows them to practice taking notes but doesn't cause them to lose focus on what I am saying.
I will discuss and model how I determine if the pronoun is subject or object. It is important to review subject and predicate with the students at this time. If the students can split the sentence into subject and predicate, finding and identifying the pronoun will be much easier.
To have the students practice subject and object pronouns, I will pass out Subject and Object Practice and Subject and Object the handout and have the students work to complete it with their shoulder partner. As they complete each one, they will need to bring it up to me for me to check. If they get it correct, they earn a point. I will set the timer for 10 minutes and allow them to work through the answers.
Next, to really have the students practice using pronouns, I will ask them to do a quick write. I will ask the students to pick a memorable moment or personal experience and try to write about it, without using pronouns. This will force the students to struggle, realizing the importance of pronouns.
To really make the activity fun, I will ask a few students to read their paragraphs aloud. This will engage all the students.
To review the concepts taught today and to assess my students' learning, I will have them complete a Closure Slips. I can use the information to create future lessons or assess their learning from today.
I have a feeling the students will struggle with this closure slip, just because I feel they may struggle with the concept. I plan on encouraging the students to use their notes when answering the questions-to hopefully help them answer the question.

Ice Report for The Red Door Resort 12-3-14
While checking ice conditions today we found 8-10.5 inches of ice out front the resort. We found 10-10.5 in most areas. The 8 inches was found straight south of Knox Point about a mile. This 8 inch area will now need to be monitored.
The crack and pressure ridge area close to shore has been moving with the changes in temperature. We currently have a plywood bridge crossing the crack east of our access on shore.
No fishing reports to mention...

Hearts For Christ
To grow in love for Jesus & Others...
Sunday, August 20, 2017
God Is Here
Tomorrow, August 21st, will mark a special event in the United States of America. A total Solar Eclipse will cross from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Some Scientists have noted that this solar event could only occur because some creative force has put it in place. I believe that God is reminding us that He is there overseeing the universe as He always has. I have now lived 6 decades on this third rock from the sun. One thing I have learned during that time is the more I think I know the more I realize I understand very little. But one truth has followed me through those years. There is a God. More amazing than that is that He sent His Son, Jesus to the World. And then add to that Yeshua came to rescue and deliver us through His shed blood on the Cross. He has always been there throughout my life in the good and the bad. He is the only Hope for this World torn with sin, hatred and pain. As the shadow passes tomorrow across our land God is telling us, "I'm still here and I love you."

Ensure that document matches include...
...all of these word(s):
...and optionally include these word(s):
...but do not have these word(s):
Enter your phrase:
Enter the first few characters of a word:
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.

Isuzu Cagayan De Oro (CDO) took the spotlight as they bagged the 2015 Dealer of the Year Award (DOYA). Besides winning the award for the 7th time, they also received several other recognitions seen below.
The award was given during a recent ceremony led by Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) President Hajime Koso and Executive Vice President Takashi Tomita. Present in the event were dealership representatives, including Isuzu CDO President and General Manager Frank Rolida.
Following the DOYA recognition, Isuzu CDO also bagged the Sales Team of the Year award. Moreover, they found themselves in 2nd place behind Isuzu Bulacan in the Best in Service Operations title. Isuzu Makati took 3rd.
When it comes to excelling in Sales Operations, Isuzu Alabang claimed the top spot with Isuzu Mandaue and Isuzu CDO in 2nd and 3rd places respectively. In addition, IPC also gave Isuzu Mandaue's Yuri Abalo the Top Sales Executive of the Year award.
For the Best in Parts Operations, Isuzu Batangas stood atop. They were followed by Isuzu Iloilo in 2nd place and Isuzu Manila in 3rd.
Those who worked hard to score high on Customer Satisfaction were also given proper merits. The top winners in this field are Isuzu Cabanatuan (1st place), Isuzu San Pablo (2nd place), and Isuzu CDO (3rd place). Lastly, a special award was bestowed onto Isuzu Cavite for being the Most Improved Dealership in terms of sales.
"This goes to show that the every IPC dealership complies and goes beyond the usual customer service that many car dealers miss. We will try to make sure all our dealerships are up to these standards to give only the best for our clients," said Koso as he encourages the entire IPC workforce to strive just as great, or even greater this 2016.
