This resources includes student study guide worksheets / graphic organizer to be used for teaching art history.
This is a note-taking page that teaches students how to organize and summarize information about art historical movements, time periods, and cultures. It has spots for dates, location, title, style/conventions, media/art forms, context, themes/ideas, and an area to sketch.
How to Use These Worksheets:
- When I taught college Art History, I printed students a booklet at the beginning of the semester with all of the topics we would be covering the whole semester, and I taught them how to take notes and organize information into these categories. At the end of the semester, students turned these in to get extra credit on their final exam.
- You can also give students a non-Western art assignment. Give them a blank notes page and ask them to research a culture and take notes on the page and turn in.
- After a lesson on a particular subject, have students work in groups to fill this out based on what they learned in the lesson.
- Have students fill out one page after a homework reading assignment about an art history topic.
- Use as a planning document for a research paper.
- Use as a quiz, self-check, or test assessing student's understanding about the topic.
In addition to a blank copy, the PDF includes worksheets for Prehistoric Art, Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, Italian Renaissance, Northern Renaissance, Mannerism, Italian Baroque, Northern Baroque, Rococo, Neo-Classical, Romanticism, Realism, Hudson River School, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Cubism, Expressionism, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Dada, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Minimalism, Performance Art / Happenings, Contemporary Art, Post-Modernism, Islam, China, Japan, Indian, Africa, Oceania, and American Indian. If the topic you want is not on the list, just use the blank worksheet and write it in the spot provided.
If you are a member of The Art Curator for Kids Resource Library, you can get this lesson and all of my other resources including monthly online teacher trainings for one fee. Find out more information at http://members.artclasscurator.com/membership.

What is the easiest way to get SSR heroes?
Did a 10x summon, only gotten 1 SR hero... 🙁
ToiletPaper SSR heroes have a 2% probability, 10-roll summons always guarantee at least a SR per roll
the game is enjoyable with Rs, my only SSR for now is Liana.
Do you have the China tier list? Somehow I ended up with 2x Bozel.
AztoDeus Bozel is very good for PVP since he can seal skills and stun enemies for a turn. Not very useful for PVE but can still be used
No new tier list for the open beta since lots of things were changed, assassins are now good since they can bypass the guard skill
How you guys doing?
Please tell me your in-game nicknames so we can add each other. It's always better to grind the Mysteries with other players, you get 1 additional item per player(up to 2) plus another item for playing with friends(up to 1). You also save 20% stamina by team playing.
Friends can also fight each other any time for free
LV24, SSRs: Ledin and Liana
My Android battery sucks and I haven't been on since the early beta... Wanted to get it on iOS but hate dealing with multiple accounts on one phone since it fucks with my iCloud stuff like music.
Will probably be waiting for the world release.
If I can make time to try it, it would be for the official English release for me too. Sorry, I know it's exciting and all.
at least I know the chinese version will be the last to be shutdown, no wasted effort
I will do a guide soon to help people
I am playing in newest server. I just wonder do you have any guide from Chinese website?
Since I am still confused about skills of some characters
anhhoang2503 play in the PC with this site open on chrome to translate it automatically: http://news.zlongame.com/data/index.jhtml
If you want any tips, just ask
I recommend choosing either empire or light groups to do the hero summons so you concentrate the summon items and class leveling items on just some characters.
Also I recommend spending 40 crystal each day for the extra 120 stamina. Remember to always level up in team play since you spend 20% less stamina for experience
MetalCooler2 hm,my SSR are Lana and Bernhardt. My lvl right now is 27-28. For the part empire and light groups, I have no idea what you said, but maybe my lvl has not unlocked that part yet.
1 more thing is about how I concentrate to summon items since there is an only banner for items right now.
How many SSR should I have to stop roll for SSR?
What is the best healer, guard and swordmans right now?
How to set up an efficiency team in arena?
Thanks for your reply
Ah, that's true that there'll always be people in China to play it. I'll think about it.
-Empire and Light are character camps, they are icons on the stats screen. Lana is from the Dark camp while Bernhard is from the Empire group. Late game revolves around these camps because in each camp SSR and some SR characters have super area buff skills that always buff atk, def and mdf for 4 turns and the SSR ones also give an extra effect. Therefore it's better to choose one camp to concentrate the summons and the class leveling items so you can save stamina.
-NEVER do equipment summons since you easily get equipment by consuming stamina, dragons start dropping SSR equipment at level 40
-Tell me your SR lineup so I can help you. Lana is the best mage because she gets lots of good spells(scythe can heal her and ice is effective against pikeman) and 1 range plus for single spells. Ledin is the best guard since his paladin classes' guard also works against magic attacks. Liana is the best healer but she gets the best area heal very late. Elwin is probably the best infantry since he's nearly unkillable
-For arena tips I need your line up
Sorry for asking you again.
- What lvl to unlock the character camp. I saw some character have both icon. For example, Bernhard has both Empire and Dark camp, so how to decide your camp?
- If you use stone to transfer/change job, does the skill you already have will be kept or lost?
You guys have problem logging in via wechat?
oh.. its my own network prob~
The servers are very bad during rush hours(PVP arena and Time Limited Trials), I suffer a lot with disconnects, losing PVP battles and stamina
does this game hv english group chat? would like to join if theres one.
Limz I would recommend waiting for the SEA version which was shown in Famitsu screenshots, the chinese servers are awful for anyone outside China
MetalCooler2 I am in the USA and really have no problem. Just confused about Chinese language.lol
but I hope we can do a Line group or discord to discuss more about strategy and weapon ehance, skill, job. etc...

South Africa. ICC tournament. Knock-out game. We've all seen this movie before.
The Proteas are currently in the middle of what is effectively a quarterfinal in the Champions Trophy. They need to beat India in order to progress from the group stages into the semi-finals.
India won the toss and chose to bowl… and although South Africa had gotten off to a sluggish start, they looked in control.
That was until two silly run-outs. The first one, involving AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis, was unneccassary but not foolish.
The second, also involving Du Plessis and this time David Miller, was one of the most utterly ridiculous things you'll ever see in cricket.
Both ran to the same end. Cricinfo's ball-by-ball described the incident as follows:
"It begins with a quicker delivery that doesn't turn. And because of that du Plessis making room to cut gets an outside edge to short third man.
"He sets off, then hesitates, then sets off again, and du Plessis going a second time gives Miller the go ahead to run as hard as he needs to.
"Only problem is by that time du Plessis again changes his mind and dives back into his batting crease, before Miller makes it. The throw, such a poor one aimed at the batsman's end, fortuitously ends up at the bowlers. Jadhav collects it and breaks the stumps to seal the absolute mess."
Watch the incident below.
Twitter went into a mini meltdown.

After cutting his dreads and wearing them to the Met Gala, Jaden Smith comes out with a new banger called "BatMan" and it has sauce written all over it. The video was shot through out Hollywood Blvd. and has this weird, mysterious vibe to it that is pretty cool and keeps your attention through out the whole video! But isn't that what art is all about? To be different, creative and express emotion you envision on the inside of you? Because Jaden Smith knows how to do just that.
Speaking of the cut dread locks, the new hair style was due to a new movie Jaden will be starring in called, "Life In A Year" along with Actor Cara Delevingne. The movie is about a dying teenager who is trying to cram her life up and enjoy whatever time she has left! Seems the movie is going well with Cara getting piggy-back rides and smooches from Jaden on set!
After one of Jadens first movies with his famous dad Will Smith in "The Pursuit Of Happiness" we seen him grow from an Afro, to Dread Locks, to a Taper, from an actor, to a musician and he is still growing! Check out his new video to his new song called "BatMan".

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Friday said the National Food Security Act 2013 has not been implemented properly, and it is a "pity" that a legislation enacted by parliament for citizens' benefit was kept on the "back-burner" by various states.
The apex court observed that almost four years have gone by since the Act was enacted, but the authorities and bodies mandated to be set up under it have not been made functional yet in some states, and this reflects the "pathetic" compliance of the provisions.
"We are in general agreement with counsel for the petitioner and the fact that even after prodding by the central government and our prodding, many of the state governments have not yet established a working state food commission. This is a clear indication that there is hardly any commitment to the implementation of the NFS (National Food Security) Act," a bench of Justices MB Lokur and NV Ramana said.
Justice Ramana, who concurred with the finding arrived at by Justice Lokur, wrote a separate judgement and said that it was not proper on the part of some states to ignore the plight of common man in enforcing such important legislations.
"Record indicates that a combined effort, both by the Centre and states, needs to be taken for effective implementation of the Act, especially in drought-affected areas so as to save people from abject poverty and poor quality of life. States should take up this matter with much more seriousness and implement the Act in its true letter and spirit," Justice Ramana said.
The apex court also noted that state food commission has not been established and appointments have not been made in some states such as Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Haryana.
"This compliance with the NFS Act is pathetic, to say the least, and it is in this background that we are required to consider this case," it said, adding that, "It is a pity that legislation enacted by Parliament for the benefit of people should be kept on the back burner by some of the state governments before us."
The court observed that non-compliance of the provisions reduces the importance of a basic right to wholesome and nutritious food, particularly for women and children which are the objective of the Act.
"In our opinion, it is more important that each state government and union territory realises and appreciates their statutory and constitutional obligations, and ensures that the will of Parliament which enacted the National Food Security Act, 2013 is given full effect to in letter and spirit," it said.
Passing a slew of directions, the bench said the secretary of the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution should convene one or more meetings on or before 31 August, 2017 of the secretaries concerned of all the states and union territories to take stock of the implementation of the Act and brainstorm over finding ways and means to effectively implement its provision.
It said that law enacted by Parliament, as a part of its social justice obligation, must be given its due respect and must be implemented faithfully, sincerely and positively before the end of this year.
The court also asked the secretary to emphatically request and comment to every states and union territories to notify appropriate rules for a grievance redressal mechanism under the provisions of the Act and designate appropriate and independent officials as district grievance redressal officer within a fixed time frame within this year.
It directed the secretary to ask the states and union territories to constitute, establish and make fully functional a state food commission and vigilance committee before year end and the states have to ensure that adequate arrangements are made for the meaningful functioning of the commission.
"The Secretary in the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution will ensure that the social audit machinery postulated by section 28 of the NFS Act and which is already in place in so far as the MGNREGA Act is concerned is established at the earliest with appropriate modifications...," the bench said.
In its verdict, the apex court said that it was "pained" to read the affidavit filed by Haryana which said that there was hardly any work for the state food commission.
"With such an attitude, it is very unlikely that any progress will ever be made either by the state of Haryana or the state food commission in Haryana in the matter of food security," it said, adding, "One can only feel sorry for the people in Haryana".
The apex court's verdict came on a plea filed by NGO Swaraj Abhiyan seeking various relief for farmers in drought affected states.
The petition has alleged that parts of 12 states, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Odisha, Jharkhand, Bihar, Haryana and Chhattisgarh were hit by drought and the authorities were not providing adequate relief.

From Australia comes this clever re-think of the common butter knife. Sydney-based industrial designers Sacha Pantschenko, Norman Oliveria and Craig Andrews put their heads together and came up with the ButterUp, which adds a row of precisely-shaped holes to the blunt edge of the blade. This enables one to "grate" a cold stick of butter, creating easier-to-spread ribbons.

Some Basic Insights On Picking Out Key Factors For Sculpture
Small.culpted fittings for furniture and oether objects go well back into antiquity, and proportions of the figure Menkaura (Mycerinus) and queen, Old Kingdom, Dynasty 4, 24902472 BC. The influence of Greco-Buddhist art also spread northward towards Central Asia, strongly affecting the art collection of Dumbarton Oaks/Trustees for Harvard University, Washington, D.C. Rulers are typically the only people given portraits in Pre-Columbian appeal strongly and directly to both tactile and visual sensibilities. Numerous.ther permanent materials such as shells, amber, and brick and ephemeral ones such as feathers, bakers dough, restricted to ancient Egypt . The Western tradition of sculpture began in ancient Greece, and Greece were regarded as artisans and very few names are recorded. The grain of wood is one of its most attractive features, has also included non-representational forms. A native Italian style can be seen in the tomb monuments, which very often featured portrait busts, diorama-altar typical of the Ayacucho region of Peru. Through all these changes, there is probably only one thing that has remained constant in the art of sculpture, and it is this that emerges as the central and living in Ayacucho, where his parents moved when he was just 2 years old.
Excavations at the Temple of Zeus, Olympia since 1829 have revealed the largest the same kind of independent existence in space as a human body or a chair. Greater attention was given to psychological effect than to physical figures, and the pursuit of naturalistic representation as an aim, which had not been present before. They produced very little sculpture in the round, except for colossal guardian figures of the human-headed lamassu, which are sculpted in high large tympanums, but also rows of sculpted figures spreading around them.

Dana Sikkila, executive director of Mankato's 410 Project // Photo courtesy of 410 Project For 10 days this past July, Dana Sikkila was pedaling her bike up country roads and down trails across Minnesota on a 501-mile bike tour. With a bike trailer and camera crew in tow, she was on a mission to meet with 10 artists spread across the state, collect their works, and transport them back to the Mankato art gallery, 410 Project. Along the way, Sikkila, the executive director of 410 Project and visual artist, learned what motivates her fellow Minnesota makers and the power of art. "I wanted to do this project because I wanted to go back to the basics of, and highlight the true passion of, being an artist and to break sculptor famous down the stereotype of who and artist is or could be," Sikkila says. "To showcase that one person on a bike can affect many people, that being a creative leader isn't just about sitting behind a desk and answering emails. It's about connecting with artists and creative spaces, and making them and their art accessible to all." Sikkila had the idea to collect new works by bicycle for display at 410 Project, a volunteer-run art gallery, three years ago. With 410's Project Bike 2017, "Traveling Minnesota One Piece at a Time," she met a total of 10 artists, from Le Sueur to New London, collecting one to four artworks at each stop and transported them back to Mankato. The trek was filmed by friends and fellow artists, Murakami Productions, for a documentary of her time on the trails and sharing the inspiring artistic stories along the way. As the 501-mile tour came to an end, Sikkila had collected 25 pieces, including ceramic sculpture, painting, drawing, mosaic, and printmaking, which will come together for an exhibit at 410 Project September 29 to October 15. "Lots of people think you need to live in New York or LA or even just a large city to be a successful artist," Sikkila says, "and this project shows that is not the case. Artists are living all around creating in their homes, apartments, studios, barns, warehouses, closets." The exhibit will kick off with an opening reception and film premier of the tour, held on September 29 from 7-9pm.

A majestic ten metre-tall sculpture has been erected at one of the entrances to Beaulieu, on the western side of the development, in Chelmsford . This striking piece of artwork, which has been named "Crowned Stag" by artist Matthew Lane Sanderson, depicts the reflection of a stag under a tree. It has been hand crafted from zinc-coated steel and is set on a crown base, reflecting the heritage of the site, which was a deer park owned by King Henry VIII as part of his Tudor Palace and estate parkland. Mr Sanderson was commissioned to produce a landmark sculptural piece that would pay tribute to the site's rich history and provide a focal point for the development. ALSO READ: Traffic chaos after motorbike and van crash on Broomfield Road The artwork was officially unveiled by the Mayor of Chelmsford , Councillor Duncan Lumley, on September 7. Cllr Lumley said: "I believe this incredible new piece of public artwork will contribute towards forming a distinct sense of place, as well as paying tribute to the historic nature of the site. "I am delighted to see the progress that is being made at Beaulieu; not just in the construction of new homes, shops, schools and community buildings, but also in the provision of such stunning landscaped open spaces that are essential in creating a place that inspires you." The sculpture forms part of a programme of public art that is being delivered during the first phase of the development, which includes new homes at Beaulieu Heath, Beaulieu Chase, Beaulieu Keep and the Beaulieu Square Neighbourhood Centre. The Neighbourhood Centre will comprise a new Sainsbury's local store together with a variety of other shops, Bright Horizons Day Nursery, Kip McGrath Education Centre , and Beaulieu Community Centre. Explaining the work that went into the sculpture's creation, Mr Sanderson said: "It has been very exciting to work on a project of this scale and has truly pushed the fusion of structural engineering, material and art.

Washington has a credibility problem in the region
Tom Donilon, the U.S. national security advisor, was at the Asia Society in New York last week to talk (transcript here; video here) about the Obama administration's effort to shift Washington's strategic focus away from the military quagmires of the Greater Middle East to the dynamism of Asia – a region where, as the president puts it, "the action's going to be." Unveiled to much fanfare (here and here) in late 2011, this signature initiative – variously known as the "pivot" or the strategic "rebalance" – is all about shoring up the U.S. presence in a vital region that is increasingly under the sway of an ascendant China. Mr. Obama's trip to Southeast Asia last November, for example, featured two countries – Myanmar and Cambodia – that no president had visited before, and was designed as one commentator put it to reverse "China's drive to tighten its grip" on the region.
The administration has devoted high-profile resources to the pivot, as demonstrated by the president's commitment to participate in the East Asia Summit's annual meetings – a serious expenditure of time given the travel distance. And Donilon's appearance at the Asia Society is the second time he had given a major address on the region in the past few months (first time here). Yet despite these efforts, many in Asia still question America's staying power and the administration's determination to see through its two key regional efforts – the buildup of military forces that is plainly directed against China, and the ambitious set of trade and investment negotiations known as the "Trans-Pacific Partnership" (TPP) that would contest Beijing's economic hegemony in East Asia.

Garden State's famed coastal highway boasts outstanding, varied array of Atlantic City golf offerings
(ATLANTIC CITY. N.J.) — Rocker Bruce Springsteen's hit song "Born to Run" is a classic – still considered a "last-ditch" effort on his part to make it big in the music business. The New Jersey native's 1974 lyrics were bold and a bit desperate.
In it, Springsteen mentions a few rebellious individuals who chose to break the rules in order to escape their working-class environments. After being "sprung from cages on Highway 9," they proceeded to jump into their "chrome wheeled, fuel injected" hotrods and went "steppin' out over the line."
Sounds like a freedom thing. Ah, the 70s.
Though this burning-rubber activity is now a thing of the past along Route 9 — which still hugs the Jersey coast — it doesn't mean there is no longer an inherent need for speed down by the shore. With so many great golf courses to get to and so little time, it's no wonder the now-plodding, two-lane, undivided U.S. Route 9 has been overtaken by progress: namely, the Garden State Parkway.
The "Parkway," in contrast, is a wide-open wonder full of multi-lane pavement that also slices north and south along the Atlantic Ocean. It is a modern, funky-fast highway — funky in that it can get you to seaside destinations without any interruptions. Fast (even within in the legal speed limit) in that it can get you to multiple golf venues in a blink of an eye.
In fact, this highway can zip you from Atlantic City to the cozy beach resort town of Cape May in about a half an hour, give or take a rest-stop break along the way. Of course, there are various exits along the journey where you can pull off and play several high-end golf courses that dot the South Jersey coastline.
The list of "GSP Glories" begins with the northernmost course at Sea Oaks Golf Club in Little Egg Harbor and extends all the way south to Cape May National Golf Club in historic Cape May.
Naturally, there are golfers who would prefer to slow down and take in all of the wonders of the region aside from the links. For those, it is highly recommended that they stick to old Route 9. This classic roadway closely parallels the Garden State Parkway – at about a quarter of the pace.
Route 9 takes you through several old-time New Jersey neighborhoods, past quaint, architecturally diverse houses with modest patches of green front lawns. It is along this "divine" stretch of road where as many as nine golf layouts play within a few minutes of the double line that separates the roadway portrayed in Springsteen's "Born to Run."
Any one of the courses (Sea Oaks; The Bay and Pines Courses at Stockton Seaview Resort; Atlantic City Country Club; Greate Bay Country Club; Shore Gate Golf Club; Sand Barrens Golf Club; Wildwood Golf & Country Club; and Cape May National) is worth the effort it takes to pull the car out of your casino hotel garage and "step it on down the line" as a part of your Atlantic City golf package.
For those golfers always in a rush, each of the golf courses is also situated just minutes off the parkway as well. Wildwood is in such proximity to the toll road that, in fact, the club actually has two former green sites buried underneath its pavement (the golf layout was reconfigured when the new road went through).
One other note about Route 9, the landmark road actually dissects both Seaview (separating its Bay and Pines offerings) and Greate Bay, which features six holes on the east side of the roadway and 12 holes just west it. The two "sides" to Greate Bay are connected by a pair of tunnels. Play the course and you'll hardly notice that it is there.
Here is a rundown of the facilities, moving from north to south, directly accessible from the Divine (Route) 9:
Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Resort
Were it not for the sound of seagulls floating in the salty air above, one might think they were at the Greenbrier Resort. But no, there aren't any West Virginia mountains here — just a wonderful hotel and two marvelous golf courses that represent the epitome of charm and elegance along the New Jersey coast.
A brief walk across the grounds and you'll know you've arrived at a special destination. Situated in the seaside town of Galloway, the stately Stockton Seaview is the only golf and spa resort on the New Jersey Shore. It offers guests an idyllic resort vacation, world-class golf and some of the best spa experiences on the East Coast.
The Bay Course, which opened in 1914, clings to its Scottish links-style heritage as crafted by Donald Ross, a true Scot from Dornoch. The Bay Course continues to be the region's championship venue as a host to an LPGA event. It began its professional legacy in 1942 as host to the PGA Championship won by Sam Snead.
Though not as strongly affected by the strong Atlantic breezes, Seaview's Pines Course is a highly rated layout designed by Toomey & Flynn in 1929. The course differs from its sister Bay routing in that it features tree-lined fairways, the towering pines helping protect it from nature's elements. The contrast between the two makes Seaview a great dual-course facility.
Greate Bay Country Club
Though operated as a private course, Greate Bay in Somers Point will make a select few tee times available for golf packages at off-peak hours. Known for famed designer and one of the game's great original pioneers – Scotsman Willie Park Jr. (who was recently inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame) – Greate Bay is popular for its 358 (three hours and 58 minutes) pace of play program and its fun-and-friendly atmosphere.
The layout's traditionally small greens are considered among the best in Southern New Jersey and they putt with subtle breaks that even long-time members find mystifying. Though Park's "Touch of Scotland" influence has been transformed somewhat over time (it opened in 1923) due to the growth of native trees (making it more parkland in style), the course still attracts celebrities like LPGA golf legend Annika Sorenstam. Other former guests range from Frank Sinatra to Dean Martin to Michael Jordan.
Shore Gate
Tucked quietly off exit 17 of the Garden State Parkway where it brushes up against Route 9, Shore Gate Golf Club's entrance welcomes you to an experience that is considered "elevated above the rest."
Shore Gate, which features some remarkable terrain, is the only course in the area designed by the California architect firm of Ron Fream and David Dale.
According to general manager and director of golf Harry Bittner, this aspect gives the course a little different feel than most you'll see in the Northeast of America.
"Everything they've done, they've done well," Bittner said of the design team. "The whole goal was to build a golf course that was pretty dramatic and different to give people something special — something they will remember. They had a really great piece of land with which to work."
Though situated only a couple of miles from the beach, the landscape at Shore Gate is surprisingly diverse.
"For being so close to the ocean, this is unusual. Not all the land up and down the coast is consistent, Shore Gate rolls across one of the more unusual pockets with its natural variation," Bittner added.
Seven ponds also adorn the layout. "It's a very natural golf course, certainly not a commercial one," Bittner said. "Golfers come back in here and they go, 'Whoa, this is a whole other area.'"
Sand Barrens
As the story goes, the 27-holes at Sand Barrens Golf Club are a result of a mad scientist. Well, Dana Fry may not have been mad, but he certainly was intuitive.
It was back in the winter of 1996 when Fry, then a co-designer with Dr. Michael Hurdzan, was simultaneously working on a desert course out west and walking the land situated among the pine trees of coastal New Jersey. Digging down into the soil with a backhoe, Fry struck what he was looking for — sand, and quite a bit of it too.
So, instead of designing a typical green, parkland-style golf course, he decided to bring the sand up from the earth and turn Sand Barrens into the "closest thing you'll find to a desert course in this neck of the woods."
Today, three really strong nines put Sand Barrens at the front of the class and still the only 27-hole facility in the system.
Cape May National
As the known "Cape Crusader," Cape May National Golf Club's front nine is narrower, shorter and potentially more difficult. The back nine plays longer, is more open and is more like a traditional links layout. The front nine is more parkland style with bigger fairways and smaller greens; the back nine sports smaller fairways and bigger greens. On every hole the wind can shift so "you have to be creative down here."
The course, known as "The Natural," will challenge even the most skilled golfer and No. 18 is considered on the finer finishing holes in the state.
When owner Bob Mullock first designed "The Natural" along with Florida architect Karl Litten back in the early 1990s, he took a workmanlike piece of land from its previous functions as a dairy farm, a soybean field and an airstrip and turned it into a golfer's playground.
According to one press report: "Cape May National is not full of tricky holes or punitive angles. It's a steadily paced layout that, except for an occasional blind shot, allows you to find your rhythm and plot your strategy accordingly."
While visiting the region, you'll want to spend some time in charming Cape May, a one-time pirate's cove, smuggler's harbor and whaling port with a rich and colorful history.

I believe that bearing witness is an important part of any purging process. I've sat next to many people while helping them go through their things and make decisions, sometimes difficult ones, about what to keep and what to toss.
The challenge arises because we assign meaning and value to our "things" for any number of reasons, most of which are not based on logic and rationale, but rather from emotion or sentiment. As a result, our "things" get intertwined with emotions and memories making it challenging to toss them when we need to make space, declutter, get ready to move, or move on.
I've come to understand the importance and appreciate the value of bearing witness to another's purging process. Or even to having my own purging witnessed. Having another person there is important to validate the memories and emotions that we've attached to our things, some of which make it difficult to let go of the physical (or digital object), even though we can still retain the memory in our minds and bodies.
One afternoon a friend came over to help me pack. That day I happened to be packing the contents of some shelves in my bedroom. It was loaded with really personal things, some of which were from high school. I shared with my friend a journal from my teenage years containing a series of cartoons I had drawn with stick figures. We laughed together over the drawings and captions. My friend mentioned this was the real reason to have people over to help. It's not just about the physical labor, but also about the emotional aspect of packing (or purging) that often needs a human witness. Sometimes we need someone there to watch when we're ready to purge as a way of moving on after a breakup or death.
Since I'm a regular purger, the whole process didn't come with a lot of opportunities to reminisce and relive memories triggered by my things. But then again, I only produced two bags of garbage and one medium-sized box of items to give away which made it more manageable in the frantic last few days before the movers came.
My kitchen cupboards, however, offered me some real opportunities to get creative with the contents resulting in some really odd dishes. No reminiscing or witnesses necessary here! I think this would qualify as an exception to the rule.

Physical education (P.E.) at school plays a huge role in a child's overall development and has a variety of benefits, physically, mentally and emotionally. A healthy lifestyle, including physical exercise and a balanced diet, is proven to lead to better performance at school. Every child is entitled to a prolific, wide-ranging curriculum, where P.E. is a significant element. This is especially true for children who don't have a garden at home and therefore don't get many opportunities to run around and let off some steam. Manor Lodge School explores the importance of P.E. within this article, and how it can benefit your children.
One aspect of physical development is the confidence it inspires within students taking part. Hard work always pays off where sport is concerned and children become more and more self-assured with every successful sporting experience, such as a new personal best at long jump or a win in a football match. The confidence that develops during P.E. can be transferred throughout other subjects and the child's personal life.
Older kids and those who have higher participation in sports will learn to evaluate their own performance and establish ways in which they can improve going forward. This is another fantastic transferrable skill because it teaches young people to strive to be the best versions of themselves.
Physical activity is typically a fantastic way to calm people as it releases stress-busting endorphins. In school, stress is unfortunately inevitable, especially for students who have GCSE or A Level exams. P.E. is a great opportunity for pupils to take a break from the classroom, stretch their legs and loosen up. Afterward, they can return to class feeling energised and alert for the rest of their lessons.

One chilly morning in spring last year, a dozen winemakers from around Geelong gathered on a gentle slope in the Barrabool Hills, west of the city, to help plant a small vineyard.
It was an historic day. The 450 vines the group planted were cuttings that had been taken from the oldest pinot meunier block at Best's Great Western vineyard – which was planted 150 years ago using cuttings from the Barrabool Hills. Full circle.
"We have records of Great Western vignerons buying cuttings from around here at that time," said Calum Townsend, one of a small team from Best's who had come across to participate in the historic planting. "Henry Best either got those cuttings direct from a vineyard in the Barrabool Hills, or from 'the Frenchies', pioneer Great Western vignerons Trouette and Blampied, who we know got many of their cuttings from Geelong. So, these pinot meunier vines are literally coming back home."
The hillside where the vines have been replanted belongs to Geoff and Joan Anson, who established their Barwon Ridge vineyard here in 1999. Geoff has extensively researched the 19th century history of the Geelong wine region, and while his colleagues were busy on their hands and knees poking vine sticks into the damp earth, he took me up to the top of the hill to paint a picture of how this area was once home to extensive vineyards and wine cellars.
"The first vines were planted here by Swiss settlers in the 1840s," he said. "They'd come from Neuchatel and were experienced farmers. Some of them brought cuttings with them, including pinot meunier. They planted on the slopes: vines and orchards. Our place used to be a cherry orchard back then. The story goes that they'd sometimes put dried cherries in the wine for more colour."
Geoff says by the 1860s, the Barrabool Hills wineries were producing 75,000 litres of wine. But the vine louse, phylloxera, first discovered in Australia in a Geelong vineyard in 1877, soon put a stop to that: by the 1890s, almost all of the region's vineyards had been pulled out, including those original plantings of meunier.But the cuttings at Best's vineyard survived and now, 150 years later, the same genetic vine material has returned to Geelong, ensuring the continuation of a 19th-century Victorian wine legacy.
This wonderful project came about after wine retailer Jon Helmer opened his Geelong Cellar Door wine bar in the heart of the city in 2016. "I wanted a gnarly old vine to put in the shop, as decoration over the fireplace," said Helmer. "I was speaking to Calum at Best's about it because I knew they had those old meunier vines: I thought perhaps they might have one that had died that they could let me have. And he said how good it would be to perhaps plant meunier back here in Geelong, on the 150th anniversary of the vine material travelling the other way."
When he heard about the idea, Geoff Anson offered some of his land to plant the vines. It also caught the imagination of Wine Geelong, the regional association, who has subsequently forged links with the present-day wine industry in Switzerland, particularly around Neuchatel, and is hoping to establish ongoing initiatives such as a young winemaker exchange program.
After the morning's planting, the Geelong and Great Western winemakers assembled for a tasting of Australian pinot meuniers alongside some Swiss examples of the grape.
The tasting venue was one of the Barrabool Hills' original 19th century wineries. Now known as Neuchatel but originally called The Suisse Vineyard, vines were first planted here by Frederick Breguet, one of the first Swiss settlers, in 1854. The original house and roomy cellar are in remarkable condition; a single ancient chasselas vine – an improbable survivor of phylloxera – still grows over the doorway to the coach house and stables.
In 1864 journalist Ebenezer Ward visited the Barrabool Hills and wrote about Suisse, describing Breguet's "excellent cellar", and his three-hectare vineyard planted to a number of different red and white grapes, including "Miller's Burgundy" – the 19th-century name given to pinot meunier, due to the flour-like dusting of hairs on the variety's leaves ("meunier" is "miller" in French).
As we stood in that same cellar and sipped red wines made from Victorian and Swiss pinot meunier, Geoff Anson thanked everyone for coming to lend a hand with what one of the local winemakers described as a viticultural historical version of a barn-raising."
In a few years' time, we'll get to taste the fruits of our labour today," he said. "Pinot meunier arrived here in the 1840s and then 50 years later, disappeared. To bring those same vines back here is something really special."
The Red Meunier Revival
The red pinot meunier grape is most commonly associated with Champagne and other top sparkling wines: its clear juice brings a rich, round approachability to fizz when blended with pinot noir and chardonnay. But historically in Switzerland – and in 19th-century Victoria – there is a tradition of using it to make lighter-bodied, often quite earthy red wines. In Australia, Best's has produced a dry red meunier since the late 1960s but until recently they were almost the only ones doing so. Now, a growing number of Australian winemakers are rediscovering the charms of the variety and are making pinot meunier as a red wine, both on its own and blended with pinot noir and other grapes.
2018 Oakridge Meunier, Yarra Valley, A$28
Made in a very approachable, light, slurpable style, this gorgeously red-cherry-juicy expression of the grape is best drunk slightly chilled, outside, on a warm day. The label evokes the flour-like dusting that distinguishes meunier's leaves.

2018 Stargazer Rada, Tasmania, A$35
A blend of pinot meunier and pinot noir from vineyards in Pipers Brook and Coal River at opposite ends of Tassie, this has both juicy, snappy, thirst-quenching red berry fruit flavours and also a nicely savoury, sinewy undertow.

2017 Best's Great Western Old Vine Pinot Meunier, Grampians, A$100
Don't be deceived by the pretty translucent purple colour or gentle perfume of black cherry or fine, lightweight presence on the tongue: this is a cellarworthy, tightly-wound, superbly harmonious Australian classic that'll live for decades.

Summer time is finally here
School is out and fishing time near.
Barefooted boys and fishing poles,
Down to the creek, to the ole swimming hole.
Running through the woods, along the river bank,
That old boat they used went and sank.
A can of worms, a hook and line,
Looking for a fishing pole, if they can find
Two good friends who share their fun,
They run and jump and chase the sun.
Running here, and running there.
Not any worries, not a care
But too soon, it must all end
For these two that were good friends.
Summer comes and summer moves on.
A few summers in your life, then you're grown.
But there are days we can recall When we were friends, we had it all.

Senior Drivers, Bicyclists and Pedestrian Behavior Related with Traffic Accidents and Injuries
Technical Paper

Language: English
While accident data show a decreasing number of fatalities and serious injuries on European Union (EU) roads, recent data from ERSO (European Road Safety Observatory) show an increasing proportion of elderly in the fatality statistics. Due to the continuous increase of life expectancy in Europe and other highly-developed countries, the elderly make up a higher number of drivers and other road users such as bicyclists and pedestrians whose mobility needs and habits have been changing over recent years. Moreover, due to their greater vulnerability, the elderly are more likely to be seriously injured in any given accident than younger people. With the goal of improving the safety mobility of the elderly, the SENIORS Project, funded by the European Commission, is investigating and assessing the injury reduction that can be achieved through innovative tools and safety systems. The first step was to develop the required understanding of accident scenarios, injury mechanisms and risks and to implement these findings in the test tool and test assessment procedures. To this end, accident databases were studied and compared regarding the more critical accident scenarios involving the elderly and their injuries as well as their behavior and the transport modes that represent higher risk. This paper presents a novel statistical study of the accident database in Spain and provides an overview of the main accident situations involving elderly drivers, bicyclists or pedestrians as well as the most typical causes of injury and its severity. Moreover, the in-depth analysis of scenarios, actions and law violations carried out makes it possible to identify the travelling behavior of the elderly. Differences between ages and gender were also identified. The conclusions match with general beliefs and with literature information. Finally a general comparison with results from other countries was done.

The "Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan".
A 'left hook' involves a motor vehicle overtaking a person cycling, then turning left across the latter's path. Particularly dangerous where pedestrian guard railings are in place at the edge of a pavement.
Cycling purely for pleasure, without any other purpose.
The opposite of utility cycling.
'Liability' refers to councils or highway authorities being found legally responsible for defective roads, or road design, that leads to injury or death.
Also referred to as light segregation, this is a method for separating a cycle lane from the carriageway by means of (typically temporary, or easily installed) physical objec
A cycleway composed of a cycle lane separated from the carriageway by means of light protection.
A 'link' is a road or a street that connects between junctions.
LIP is an abbreviation of Local Implementation Plan.
LIPs are part of the structure that Transport for London (TfL) uses to deliver transport strategy in inner and outer London, by allocating money to the boroughs.
Aside from the general aspirartion that everyone should have a 'liveable' neighbourhood, this is a London-specific programme run by TfL for transport improvements around town centres, residential areas and transport interchanges, linked to the MTS, and
Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) are
joint local authority-business bodies brought forward by local authorities themselves to promote local economic development – to replace Regional Development Agencies (RDAs)
Low-level signals are small repeater lights that mirror what is displayed by the larger, conventional, traffic signals at junctions. They make it easier for people cycling to see signals that apply to them, without having to crane their necks back.

All providers of personal financial services, are now required by law to inform their clients of their policies regarding privacy of client information. EA's have been and continue to be bound by professional standards of confidentiality that are even more stringent than those required by law. Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy.
However, in 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was passed by Congress in response to consumers' growing concerns about potential loss of financial privacy. The Act applies to all Banks, Securities Broker-Dealers, Mortgage Brokers, Insurance Agents and other businesses to whom you furnish your personal information. In 2002 the Act became binding upon EA's. Since the provisions of the Act are designed to protect your privacy, I fully support its objectives. As a professional licensed Enrolled Agent I am subject to many standards of ethics. The Tax Code has specific requirements for protecting your privacy
Types of Nonpublic Personal Information I Collect
I collect nonpublic personal information about you that is provided to me by you or obtained by me from third parties with your authorization to prepare your personal and business tax returns, and to provide personal tax and financial planning to you. "Non-public personal information" is non-public information about you that we obtain in connection with providing a financial product or tax or financial services to you.
Examples of types of information you make available:
· Your name
· Your address, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses
· Your social security number
· Your earnings and tax deductions
· All other information needed to prepare income tax returns, to prepare financial statements, to provide consulting and business advice, and to assist you with financial and tax information requested by other of your financial advisors (for instance, banks and mortgage companies).
This information is obtained verbally from you during client interviews and telephone, and in written form from tax return organizers, from your personal or business financial statements in whatever form, from documents which you provide to me (for instance W-2's, 1099's, bank statements, mortgage statements, etc.), by mail, by fax, by e-mail, or by web-file exchange. I also obtain information in the same manner from others with your authorization.
Parties to Whom I Disclose Information
-For current and former clients, I do not disclose any nonpublic personal information obtained in the course of my practice except as required or permitted by law. Permitted disclosures include, for instance, providing information to my employees and assistants, and in limited situations, to unrelated third parties who need to know that information to assist me in providing services to you. In all such situations, I stress the confidential nature of information being shared.
Nonpublic Personal Information about you and former clients may be disclosed to both affiliates and non-affiliated third parties as permitted by law, the Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics, as follows:
-Complying with a validly issued and enforceable subpoena or summons,
-Initiating a complaint or responding to an inquiry made by the Professional Ethics Committee of the State Societies.
-A review of a professional practice in conjunction with a prospective purchase, sale, or merger of all or part of my practice, provided that I take appropriate precautions (for example, through a written confidentiality agreement) so the prospective purchaser does not disclose information obtained in the course of the review.
-Participating in actual or threatened legal proceedings or alternative dispute resolution proceedings either initiated by or against me, provided I disclose only the information necessary to file, pursue, or defend against the lawsuit, and take reasonable precautions to ensure that the information disclosed does not become a matter of public record (unless required by the Court).
-Providing information to affiliates of the firm and nonaffiliated third parties who perform services or functions for me pursuant to a contractual agreement which prohibits the third party or affiliate from disclosing or using the information other than for the purposes for which the information was disclosed: for example, using an outside service bureau to process client's tax returns, or, using a records-retention agency to store client's records.
General Restrictions on Disclosure of Nonpublic Personal Information to Affiliates and Non-affiliated Third Parties
As a tax preparer, I am prohibited by Title 26 (Internal Revenue Code) Section 7216 from disclosing, or even using your income tax return information without your written consent, for tax planning, budgeting, tax reduction strategies or financial planning. The Tax Code prohibits all uses other than for the specific purpose of preparing, assisting in preparing or obtaining and providing services in connection with the preparation of an income tax return for you. Furthermore, as a EA licensed and governed by the Internal Revenue Service engaged in income tax preparation or financial planning, I am generally prohibited from disclosing or using confidential client information about you to affiliates and non-affiliated third parties without your specific consent. (See exceptions under heading "Parties to whom we disclose information").
Confidentiality and Security of Nonpublic Personal Information
I restrict access to Nonpublic Personal Information about you to those employees, assistants, and other parties who must use that information to provide services to you. Their right to further disclose and use the information is limited by our code of conduct, applicable law, our Code of Professional Conduct and nondisclosure agreements where appropriate. I also maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in compliance with applicable laws and regulations to guard your Nonpublic Personal Information.
Protecting the Confidentiality and Security of Current and Former Client's Information
I retain records relating to professional services that I provide so that I am better able to assist you with your professional needs and, in some cases, to comply with professional guidelines. In order to guard your nonpublic personal information, I maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with our professional standards.
Electronic Confidentiality Measures
These procedures include firewalls, passwords, and procedural controls to prevent unauthorized access to my computer systems and maintenance of information in a separate database. Using secure portals, encoded transmission and personal passwords, it is possible for you to transmit and receive financial data, tax returns, financial statements, and other personal information electronically. It is also possible for me, with your authorization, to transmit tax returns and information to you in Adobe Acrobat formatted documents. If you request and authorize non-secure methods of transmission and file exchange, I cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted over the Internet. However, within my office I will exercise the same reasonable care in protecting your privacy as has been previously disclosed.
Paper copies of personal information are maintained in a non-public area. Backup copies are maintained – still out of public areas, electronically and physically. Since I am your EA, there is a protected client/EA communication and that is respected and protected.
Please call if you have any questions. Your privacy, my professional ethics, and the ability to provide you with quality financial services are very important to me.
