More Halo 4 "Spartan Ops" Details Revealed
Halo 4 is looks set to continue on the Halo legend despite developer Bungie's departure from the series, and more information has been released about the interesting Spartan Ops mode within the game. The information came in the form of an interview with developer 343's David Berger and Kevin Franklin and appears in the same week as the news that the multiplayer element of Halo 4 will require a monster 8GB install.
Berger and Franklin said that the Spartan Ops mode will allow the studio to "push the fiction forward after the launch of the game" with the episodic mission taking place around "six months after the events of the campaign". It will not cost any extra to play Spartan Ops as it is included in the price of the game and will be distributed in the form of five missions a week with a CG cut-scene.
It all sounds good to me but what do you think about Halo 4 and all of its so-far announced features? Please leave your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

This article was published originally on the author's blog and is reprinted here, in a slightly altered version, with her permission.
The moment I step off the plane into the dense heat of Jamaica, I realize that here, on this island in the Caribbean Sea, time itself can be consumed by heat. I wear no watch this week and I'll never check a cell phone or clock in passing. They are relics of structure. For this one week, I'll let the the long and bright days stretch on forever.
I've never been to Jamaica as a tourist. When I go, I stay with my aunt in what can only be described as a family compound in upper Kingston. I stay in the "new house' ("new" since it is the most recently built) and endure the heat of the island without air conditioning.
These days keep me holed up inside our family's house perched in front of a fan, either muted with heat-induced fatigue or rambling incessantly about how hot I am. Once the mercury rises over 85 degrees, I become a beast. A strange selfishness comes over me. With every creeping degree I lose an ounce of compassion and seek out the coolness with little consideration for shame. Ice is hoarded and sleep comes to me with a shocking stillness I never knew I possessed. And then there is the fan. I would build a shrine and worship at the base of this most precious oscillating contraption.
This week in Jamaica, land of my father, I learn two things about myself. First: I would do nearly anything to escape the heat. Second, and far more importantly: I would forsake even more, including respite from solar oppression, to learn how to cook roti from my aunt Yvonne.
Family folklore has given rise to a set of culinary superlatives to which we hold firm. Uncle Derrick makes the best curry goat (I credit this to the fact that he selects and butchers the goat himself). Aunty Ginger can cook as well as my grandmother—a true accomplishment in itself— and Uncle Trevor is simply the best cook. But no one, no one, makes roti as well as Aunty Yvonne. These carefully appointed culinary identities define family meals, and no one is interested is abdicating his or her throne. On this visit, it is confirmed: the food remains as exquisite as ever.
But being the best at making roti is its own special sort of triumph. Roti is bread and bread is life, so succeeding at this dish gives one a particularly hallowed placed in the folklore. Roti is one of the many flatbreads in the canon of Indian food. As the Indian diaspora has spread beyond the subcontinent, so has roti, as well as other Indian breads, among them, naan, chapati, and paratha.
My father is West Indian, a nice general term one hears all the time in Canada and the Northeast U.S. to describe people from the Caribbean who have ancestral ties to India. The term is used less and less the farther west one moves across the United States (as I've learned based on my current tenure in Iowa). His culture, and thusly part of my culture, is directly informed by his Jamaican nationality and Indian heritage. In my family, the presence of the Indian influences bears the same weight as the Jamaican influences and is mostly expressed through language and our food… which leads me back to roti. It's our bread.
Younger generations eat roti less often and Jamaican staples like hard dough bread—basically pan de mie—has mostly replaced roti as the bread of regular rotation. But when the whole family gathers–when there is a party, a wedding, a baby, or a funeral– there is roti and Yvonne makes it.
I didn't realize how long I had waited for this particular phone call until it finally came: Aunty Yvonne rings to ask me if I'm ready to learn to make roti.
I wish I had counted the number of steps it took for me to walk from my grandfather's house to end of the street where my aunt lives. I'm certain it would be smaller than I'd ever like to admit, but any number of steps grows exponentially when making that walk in the thick mid-afternoon of Jamaican humidity.
Yvonne opens the door for me, shooing me in and telling me to be quick, to not let the heat in. "My God," I think, "she gets me." She hands me a glass of ice water and we walk back to the kitchen, which is long and wide. There are few things in it. Set out on the deep countertop she has a bag of flour, a large bowl, damp kitchen towels, and little balls of roti she has already begun to work on. The air is smoky and scrolls of charcoal float into the kitchen from the doorway on the right. When I peek my head into the dark room, I see a little grill set up near the patio with burning coals glowing in the shadows. Yvonne is maybe five feet tall on a good day and she flits around like a hummingbird, giving directions, rolling out dough, smiling, and laughing, and always shooing me to work quicker, quicker.
"Come on, man, you have to be fast."
I had walked to the house with my camera, tripod, and a notebook– clearly too fresh into my graduate degree– obsessed with the idea that I was doing ethnology or something. Rookie. Quickly enough, the pen and paper are tossed to the side and I am coated in the sheen of sweat and flour.
First, we talk tawa. This is the flat, cast iron skillet on which the roti is griddled. Next up: coconut oil. I could go on and on about coconut oil and the Ramdeen family, how it's been the de facto oil since forever. Then, we talk flour. She tells me Jamaican flour has less gluten than American flour and I know she's using a sort of cake flour. We add flour to the bowl, salt, baking powder, and enough water until, she says, "it feels right." It's this touch-based confidence of a true cook, of the roti maker, I hear with this particular proclamation.
Good roti dough is kneaded until it's smooth and velvety. I watch how she handles the dough and recognize it's the same way my dad does. There's a finesse to it. We separate the dough into little balls and this is when I see her true skill come into play.
First the dough is shaped into disks. Then, holding the disk flat in one hand and using the edge of your other hand, you press the dough down the center and move your hand from side to side to flatten the dough. It sounds far more complicated than it is.
Next, the flattened rounds are rolled out until they are very thin, so thin that you can layer another rolled out roti on top between a thin coating of coconut oil and cook them at the same time. I never quite grasped this part.
All the while the tawa is set over the stove on the highest heat. We rub it with coconut oil and it starts to take on that sheen cast iron gets where it actually looks hot. You lay the roti on the tawa and wait for it took cook. This happens quickly. Sometimes air bubbles form and you press down the opposite side to push the heat through. You flip them, you remove them, you stack them, and you do it all over again.
Thirty minutes in and we've amassed quite the stack of roti. It's getting hotter and hotter in the kitchen so Yvonne says I can move to grill in the dark room where she's been working; it's a graduation of sorts. With the lights off, the stone walls, and the breeze coming into through all the open doors and windows, I get why this is where she cooks her roti. Never mind that this grill is infinitely hotter than the stove, that this tawa is twice the size, and everything cooks in a fraction of the time.
Once we've finished cooking, we move to the dining room where we roll the roti into columns, stack them in a large container, and cover them until it's time to have them with the curry goat Uncle Derrick will make for the party that night.
I leave Yvonne's house in the early evening and walk back to my grandfather's house in the same heat. This time, however, there's nothing to exaggerate about the steps that are taken.

Bill Maher started off Real Time on Nov. 9 by conducting a quick recap of the elections, noting that there will now be six openly gay men in Congress, a bisexual woman and an openly gay female senator, while pot was legalized in two states. "We're becoming more like Canada, and we still have our nukes," he quipped
"I don't think we should lump gay marriage and pot together," said conservative commentator and writer S.E. Cupp. "It diminishes the fight that gay activists do," she said.
"Do not tell me I'm diminishing the gay rights movement," Andrew Sullivan, editor of the Daily Beast's The Dish, said.
Moving to a discussion of Romney and Mormonism, Maher said, "The reason we don't have gay marriage in California is the Mormons," who funded the initiative to ban it. Noting that Bush won more of the Mormon vote than Romney, Maher asked why Romney's faith was off limits during the campaign.
"It doesn't do Democrats any service to bring up Mormonism," Cupp said after Carville noted that Senate majority leader Harry Reid is also Mormon.
Maher then brought up the single women's vote, referencing Rep. Todd Akin's controversial statements about rape and pregnancy.
"For Republicans to do well in the future, they need the woman vote. Women outvote men by 10 million. Okay. Don't the Republican men, even if they have these views, in the future, have to shut up?" Maher asked.
"If you believe that human life starts from conception, then of course the circumstances" don't matter, Sullivan said.
"They're vaginaphobes," Maher replied.
Democratic commentator James Carville noted that some in the South say, "'You know, in order to get that boys attention, you got to hit him upside the head with a two by four.' Well the sound you heard on election night was pine on skull," he said.
Citing a Pew study, Cupp questioned women's allegiance to Democrats. "Women have grown increasingly comfortable with a bigger government, an activist government. If you look at the goals of second wave feminism, sort of sisters are doing it for themselves, somewhere along the way that message became, women literally cannot function without the assistance of the government. I think that's a really unfortunate place for women to be, but I'm not at all surprised that Democratic messages worked on women this year."
"I think it was the Republican message that worked on women," Maher said.

2013 Nissan Sentra Car seems to have a lot of problems. The motor bogs out a lot, making a loud noise. My back tires ware quickly. And it just started recently over heating! The ac also doesn't blow cold air unless you are driving when you are stopped or parked it blows out hot air.

Purchased my 2007 Sentra S in 2010. It has been a great little car! That being said, I wish the seat adjusted to where short people can raise it high enough to see over the hood and not be in the steering wheel. The brakes are original (it is at 150K now) and work great, but they squeal when they are wet. I've had them checked by multiple mechanics at different shops and they all say they look great. Gotta love those Nissan engines! They run like nobody's business, but i wish they didn't sound like a wind up toy. :) I've had some issues with it dying when trying to cold start it. Finally it blew up the fuse to the starter that is situated over the battery under the positive terminal. After checking, we found the intake hose had a large hole in it that the original owner had used black electrical tape to seal it back off. These two items I can replace for $150. Last summer I had a terrible squeal in the passenger suspension. It turned out that the boot was almost completely off the shock. I replaced both shocks, the control arms, all three motor mounts (cheap) (which caused a lot of the noise),took it for an alignment and the car drives brand new again. The carpet and upholstery is very durable. I spilled oil in rear floor board and it came up by scrubbing a very small bit of dawn into it and pouring club soda over it. Vacuumed it up and hit it with BleachWhite. It looks the same as the other side now! I love this car!

I really like the car but hate loud noise out the transmission. It is a good car at 80,000 miles take lots of trips gets great gas mileage very comfortable needed few repairs until after 60,000 miles believe extended warranty has expired. Overall Sentra was our second car purchased since 1983 after driving a larger car its nice looking all that but some things needs be addressed or recalled as taking into shop for some problems other than its a good car runs amazing.

Believe take care of a car will last forever changing fluids and oil changes. Overall pleased in vehicle gets excellent gas mileage no complaints it's a decent little car.

I have a 96 Sentra very reliable vehicle driving around town. Gets decent gas mileage, replaced cv boots/ball joints - air compressor, 2 struts and water pump. The car received good maintenance never spent nothing expensive did get muffler worked on noticed saw small holes and minor leak but I took care of that at the muffler shop. Love the car has few minor body dents was like that when got 3 years ago would not sell this vehicle been reliable ever since. I'm thinking of doing a little work on it like fixing it up and get a paint job has couple rust spots. It drives well went to Seattle no problems didn't smoke or stalled got 30mpg these cars are well built like tanks I have 230k miles now - Purchased 3 years ago 124k miles engine original runs like Energizer battery I use Lucas tranny fluid 5w30 and change oil with Valvoline synthetic service every 6,000 miles. Innovation that standards - My 1996 Sentra.

I owned this car since 07 starting to have few mechanical problems but can't compare whatsoever because its been a great car since Day 1. It has 168,000 miles took 34 trips got 31 mpg and rode pretty smooth back in the day. I am looking for a new car now but have had an good experience out of my Sentra never gave a problem.

I have a 2012 Nissan Sentra bought new it is starting to have problems and Nissan doesn't gave a rats behind about their loyal customers. I spent $123 on new AC compressor and $140 replacing getting brakes done now CVT is jerking while left me stranded in Walmart parking lot. AAA towed my car to Nissan which need an new transmission but warranty is closed to expire because my car has 100,000 miles so Nissan talks about having a fix we'll see about their lacking services. I am losing lots of faith in Nissan because now these cars are nothing but problems I religiously maintain all my cars do schedule maintenance oil changes careful on getting things done now not so happy with my car. This is my first and last Nissan will ever buy.

Last of the old body. I paid 18,300 out the door for this SR. Pleasantly surprised how nice it drives, great gas mileage and still on original brakes. Love the way it shifts, smooth and I never feel any jerking motion. Best car for the money. Ugly rear end but I got used to it.

I bought my 2011 Nissan Sentra back in April 2011. I loved it when I first got it. Very quiet ride, can't feel the shifting of gears. But, at 23,000 I had to replace one strut. I don't drive crazy or aim for pot holes. I also had to replace the adjustable arm (suspension issue). all of this before 25,000 miles. It also makes a clunking noise when turning right and left. I took it in to the dealer and they say its nothing. They claim i need to put a rubber cover over the spring in the suspension to get rid of the noise. UH HA sure, for $200 and not covered by warranty at all. I had to replace the A/C and the Compressor Clutch at 52,000 miles. I don't use the A/C much. I replaced the brakes at 50,000 ( thats expected). Now I have a "rotten gasket" in my tail pipe at 56,000 miles. They want to replace the whole exhause from the Cat. coverter. time for a patch job, since it not covered under (extended warranty).
So far I'm not impressed. Its becoming a money pit. Most of the things were covered under warranty ($100 deductible each time), but that is beside the point. These things shouldn't be breaking. I think I'm going back to Toyota. I never had these problems when I owned my Toyota.

I am writing this review because I want other people to AVOID THIS CAR AT ALL COSTS. This is the worst vehicle I have purchased and I am stuck with it because I cant trade the damn thing in due to the drop in value. I owned a 2010 Honda Civic and it kicked Nissan's fanny!!! Sadly I was hit and my Honda was totaled but I survived. So back to this rolling money pit. It has 65000 miles on it, I bought it in 2011 its now 2014. When I start the car it revs up and hangs out at 2.5 RMPs until I put it in to gear, there is a light that says lose fuel cap. It has had a knocking noise in the steering column when I turn the wheel left or right. There is a loud THUNK noise when the damn thing starts rolling and the breaks make a terrible swish/swish/swish noise when I go to stop. I cant keep up with the repairs on it. I also think the transmission is getting ready to go as well. Its a lemon!! I took it to the dealer and they just tell you nothing is wrong these are phantom issues and then since your warranty is only 30,000 miles it will run out and Nissan runs off with your cash. SCREW this car company I will never purchase another one.

The CV tranny was making a noise and found out that Nissan had extended the warranty to 120000, mine was at 98320, due to problems. Brought my 07 Sentra to the dealer and sure enough the tranny was bad. It was replaced free of charge, but if it wan not covered it would have cost in excess of $2800.00. Now I'm having an intermittent stalling problem. Owned the vehicle since say one in 07

95K 2003 GXE: Purchased in 2004 with 11 miles. CD Player stopped working after the first year. The exhaust pipe fell down and needed to be reattached (simple issue). No major issues until 2012. Replaced the Head Gasket, water pump, radiator, radiator hoses, serpentine belt, thermostat, and normal maintenance items within the last three months. Now the transmission is slipping. Great car until it dies. I wouldn't invest major work into this vehicle. Lesson learned.

I have a 2010 Nissan Sentra SR and I really like the vehicle.
The car is a winner as a gas miser in my opinion with 25 mpg
city/ 34 mpg highway. I average about 30 miles per gallon. I
really like the fact that the car comes with most features
The voice controlled bluetooth phone link is one of the prized
options that helps to keep me safe when receiving or making
calls on the road. This car does everything well as a daily
commuter and it has a little better than expected power on
the highway.
The Continuously Variable Transmission is smooth and it also
helps to save on fuel. I also like the Intelligent Key System
that gives me more peace-of-mind and less stress while
entering, operating, and exiting the vehicle.
The low positioned fog lamps provide increased road
illumination for night driving, and the traction control
option is a necessity when anticipating driving in slick
road conditions.
The interior space is also comfortable, because I do not feel
cramped in my 67 inch 180 pound frame during my fifty-mile one
way commutes.
The five star safety rating was also a factor in helping me to
decide on buying this vehicle. This car was an overall wise
choice for me ( among comparable vehicles in it's class ),
because it does what I purchased it to do reasonably well as a
value-conscious consumer and driver.

I have a 1991 nissan sentra ser 2.0 and it has been a great car! Purchased it new. It is red the paint is faded. I seen that someone said they had fuel injectors replaced on their nissan. Well let me tell you something. I had a fuel injector acting up and took it to a repair center in virgina and the guy said it needed replaced so i got it done. About 3 months later i had the same problem again i was going to take it back in and then it went away all by it's self!!! Here what was happening was dirt was getting in the injectors. This second time the speck of dirt worked it's way through the injector on it's own. I never had to do anything to it and that has been 4 years ogo! They really didn't need replaced just cleaned. So the point here is some people blame the car when it may be the mechanic they are taking it to? Look on youtube and you will see many videos on this! 20/20 48 hours dateline nbc all have shows on this. From your washing machine or fridge to your car it happens all the time!!! I am just saying beware it may not be your car that is to blame all the time. Yes your car may have some problems all cars do but it may be a $30.00 problem but you may end up paying $300.00 I hope this helps someone. Just Beware!

bought my 2006 sentra with 40K on it and have run it up to 215K.
I love this car. It has always been reliable and has averaged 38 mpg over its life with me. I do alot of highway driving and it's never let me down. The only repair I've made other than routine oil changes was bearings in two wheels. front left and back left bearings were failing and needed replaced. I attribute that to some of my driving habits. lol

I own a brand new (Oct 2011) 2012 Sentra SR and feel that there is something wrong with the steering. It will wander to the left on straight roads. In fact, it can change lanes all by itself on the highway if I do not have a firm grip on the wheel! (My 21 year old daughter brought this to my attention when I let her drive it for the first time: "Mom, the car pulls to the left.")
I returned it to the dealer's service dept and their asst manager gave me a lengthy speech about how this car's rack and pinion steering will conform to the "crown in the road." Neither my husband nor I have ever experienced this phenomenon with rack and pinion vehicles we have owned. The man took it for a test drive with me and he kept deliberately jerking the steering wheel to the right. He agreed to check the front end alignment and found it needed adjustment. It seemed better for a month but problem has since recurred. I am having buyer's remorse!

Had to get my new 2011 nissan sentra towed to the dealership because it would not start. They called me the next day and said the ECU was bad. How does the ECU go bad in a car that is only a ear old? That doesn't make any sense. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else, or if anyone can tell me exactly how an ECU can go bad in such a new car. Thanks.

Very few problems that cannot be explained by normal wear and tear. Although I am at a loss with a problem with a squeak in the front end while driving. I've found that my bottom rear engine mount was split in two and had that replaced but the problem persists. If anything it has worsened which leads me to believe its suspension related but the dealer tells me everything checks out. Does anyone have any idea what this may be?

TEHRAN, IRAN — Iran's hard-line judiciary backed off from the death sentence issued against a history professor, his lawyer said Monday. The sentencing of Hashem Aghajari sparked days of protests in 2002.
Aghajari was convicted of blasphemy after he said in a speech that Muslims were not "monkeys" to follow blindly the teachings of clerics. Although that charge, carrying the death penalty, was dropped earlier this month, he may still face up to five years in prison for "insulting religious values," said his lawyer, Saleh Nikbakht. Aghajari has been in jail since 2002.

I enjoyed a seven hour stopover in San Salvador on my flight away from Perú, a thrilling glimpse of the Salvadoran capital that left me conscious of how much I've yet to discover of Latin America. If you ever go through there and have time to kill, skip the taxis and take public bus 138 to and from the centre from the airport: it takes about 50 min each way and costs $0.60.
One of the highlights of these few hours of exploration was stumbling upon El Rosario church in Parque Libertad. Designed by architect and sculptor Rubén Martínez, it took seven years to build and its plans were directly approved by the Vatican after national ecclesiastic authorities turned down the initial proposal. Martínez wanted to build a church different from any other in the Americas. The filtering coloured light, the wide open circular space and the sculptural presence of Christ's life combine to create a serene place to cultivate thought, prayer and faith. Magnificent!

4 PURPOSE OF THE BUSINESS PLAN This business plan is a dynamic document, meant to shape CACCF over the coming three years. It is a dynamic document that will be under continued review and will be revised as situations demand. The purpose of this business plan is to guide CACCF s restructuring, marketing and operations for this three year period.
5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Business Overview History: CACCF is a long term stable NGO established in Mission: To protect the public through legitimate certification and professional contact review processes. Vision: CACCF envisions one addiction certification body eventually leading to the creation of a professional college. Products and Services Certifications: CACCF offers reciprocal certifications with over seventy International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium boards as well as non-reciprocal credentials. Benefits: Certification protects the public from unethical or incompetent services. It raises addiction counselling to the level of a profession. Industry Overview: The vast majority of people working in addictions are not licensed or certified. Therefore, there is plenty of room for growth and expansion. 2
6 Other Certification Bodies: First Nations Wellness Addictions Counselor Certification Board Canadian Council Professional Certification - Canadian Society of Addiction Medicine. Possible Collaborations: This business plan calls for a dialogue with these organizations. Collaboration with CCSA: There have been some preliminary discussions with Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse. This plan calls for continued discussions. Why CACCF Should Lead: CACCF has the highest standards that are accepted internationally. CACCF offers a full spectrum of certifications while the other organizations only offer an entrance level credential. CACCF s examination process is psychometrically sound and defensible in court. CACCF offers computer based testing, a professional conduct review process and representation from across the country. Potential Growth of the Industry: CACCF has fewer than a thousand members. The potential membership is in the range of five thousand. Key Markets: The key growth markets are in Alberta and with the Registered Substance Abuse Expert program. How Key Markets Will Be Targeted: We will open up discussions with the Alberta authorities and aggressively market the RSAE 3
7 Political Strategy: Federal: Essentially CACCF will concentrate its efforts developing its relationship with the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse. Provincial/Territorial: The business plan calls for the development of regional associations. The RAs will be responsible for government relations in their region. Meetings are currently being scheduled in both Alberta and Ontario. Organizational Restructuring: CACCF s membership has approved a restructuring with provincial/territorial associations under the auspices of a national body. By-Laws and Policy and Procedures: These documents are in process and will be adopted by mid 2012 Marketing Plan: Alberta Proposal Pricing Points of negotiation with the Alberta government are outlined CACCF will review its fee structure. Social Media Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube will be used to raise the profile of CACCF, as well as continued enhancement of CACCF s web page. The board will look to the volunteer web master to help CACCF to make enhanced use of social media. 4
8 Conferences A list of conferences is currently being compiled. CACCF s Executive will choose which ones it will participate in. Article Writing CACCF will submit articles to appropriate publications Advertising Either by itself or in conjunction with submitting articles, advertising will be purchased where the best estimated return on investment can be gained. Main Line Media When appropriate, CACCF will distribute press releases and letters to the editor to the mainline media. Operations Plan: Human Resources CACCF should move towards a full time Executive Director by the end of 2013 with two full time administrative staff. Office Location CACCF should maintain its offices in Kitchener Ontario. However, CACCF should explore the future possibility of a move to the national capital of Ottawa. Day To Day Operations CACCF will move to: Computer based testing Training of staff in computer skills and accounting. 5
9 Membership Services Division: This division that will provide, insurances, training and products will be developed in 2012 Charitable Foundation: An application for charitable status to Industry Canada will be submitted in 2013 Certification Division: In 2014 two divisions, Francophone and First Nations will be set up. Language: The counsellor s exam will be translated into French in Others will be added as resources allow.

Membership Liability Insurance: A full liability insurance program has been negotiated for CACCF members. List of Priorities: A critical path has been outlined. 6
10 BUSINESS OVERVIEW History Formerly the, the Canadian Addiction Counsellors Certification Federation (CACCF) was founded in 1985 under its original name, the Addiction Intervention Association. We are a voluntary, membership based, non-profit organization with regional representation across all Canadian provinces and territories. The CACCF is also an active member of the International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium. Mission The Canadian Addiction Counsellors Certification Federation is a voluntary, membership based, non-profit organization that strives to continuously offer the most effective and credible certification to all addiction specific counsellors in Canada. Vision The long term vision is to move towards the development of a regulatory college which will: Certify and monitor the competencies of addiction specific counselors in Canada, using current and effective practices that are internationally recognized. Through its professional conduct review process, provide protection to the general public, employers, regulatory agencies and counsellors Provide its certified counselors with quality, credible and legally defensible certifications. 7
11 PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Certifications Canadians have an obligation to ensure that individuals or their family members requiring and desiring assistance with a substance abuse problem receive an acceptable quality of care. The best way to accomplish that is through competent, certified clinical professionals. Clients with an addiction challenge should expect to receive the same standard of care as any other malady. CACCF has a full range of certification products. It offers two categories of certifications. One category has reciprocity with the International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium (IC & RC). The second category does not. Reciprocity means that the Canadian certification will be recognized by the over seventy boards who belong to the IC & RC. This is because all candidates have followed the same process as well as written and passed the same examination. Reciprocal Certifications International Alcohol and Drug Counselor (ICADC) International Certified Co-occurring Disorder Professional (ICCDP) International Certified Co-occurring Disorder Professional Diplomat (ICCDPD) International Certified Clinical Addictions Counselor (ICCAC) International Certified Clinical Supervisor (ICCS) International Certified Prevention Specialist (ICPS) Non-Reciprocal Certifications Certified Clinical Supervisor (CSS) Registered Substance Abuse Expert (RASE) Registered Substance Abuse Supervisor (RSAS) National Certified Tobacco Addiction Specialists (NCTAS) CACCF will bring into its product line the Peer Recovery Support Worker certification during CACCF will also add a Criminal Justice Counsellor certification in
12 Designation CACCF offers the designation of Canadian Contingent Alcohol and Drug Counsellor (CCADC). Designation is a step toward certification. It recognizes the educational achievements of a candidate, but ensuing certification is contingent on completion of practice requirements. CACCF offers, as part of the certification process, approval of the portfolio and setting up of the examinations along with administration of the data bases. Benefits of Certification The full spectrum of certifications except for the Criminal Justice certification is available for addiction professionals. This credential will be added to the product line in In addition CACCF will be adding the Peer Recovery Support Worker certification in the spring of CACCF s credentials are competency based. They require high standards of professional experience, education and training, clinical supervision and the passing of an examination. CACCF s examinations are current, psychometrically sound and defensible in a court of law. Recertification requires the certificate holder to keep apprised of best practices by completing forty hours of Continued Education Units every two years. 9
13 INDUSTRY OVERVIEW Size of Market No one can state how many addiction workers there are in Canada, However, the 800 certified CACCF members represent a small portion of those eligible. This is due to the lack of regulation anywhere in Canada and the lack of requirement to be certified. This can be rectified through political will. Estimates for the province of Alberta are between 500 and 700. Other Certification Bodies First Nations Wellness Addiction Counsellor Certification Board (FNWACCB) This organization has been funded by Health Canada and is attempting to meet the unique needs of First Nations addiction workers. At this point in their development they have grandfathered in their certificants. There has been no examination process. CACCF has had discussions with FNWACCB. While applauding their goals and efforts CACCF will not agree to granting reciprocity. One major factor that would need to be in place is their utilization of the IC & RC examination. Canadian Council of Professional Certification (CCPC) This organization is similar to FNWACCB in that it does not require an examination for certification. Possible Collaborations The ideal for the Canadian addiction field is to have one national certification board that incorporates the Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse (CCSA) workforce competencies. CACCF is open to re-entering discussions with FNWACCB about collaboration. CACCF is also open to discussing with CCPC how we might have them join us. 10
14 Other possible collaboration and support might be with Canadian Society of Addiction Medicine (CSAM) and the Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse. CACCF is presently in initial discussions on what the CCSA collaboration might look like. Another significant player is the Canadian Harm Reduction Network. CACCF should approach this group. Collaboration with CCSA Talks have started with how there might be a merging of CACCF s certification and CCSA`s technical and behavioural competencies. A meeting was held to start this process in February There is also the suggestion that the case presentation part of the process be based on the CCSA competencies. In order to have one certification body, eventually leading to a professional college, the certification body must have the influence and endorsement of CCSA as well as the ministries of health across Canada. Why CACCF Should Lead CACCF is well established, and is connected with IC & RC. The other two are not and cannot be a member without CACCF s approval. CACCF has a full spectrum of certifications. The others do not. CACCF has a professional conduct review process. The others do not. CACCF provides a curriculum review process for education and training institutions. Certification and training go hand in hand. CACCF is in the process of having the international examination translated into French. The other two do not provide services in French CACCF has two co-occurring certifications, thereby creating a bridge to the mental health sector. The others do not CACCF has a tobacco cessation certification. The other two do not. Tobacco use can be argued to be the number one killer in Canadian society. CACCF offers computer based testing (CBT). The others do not. 11
15 Key Markets All addictions programs across the country Mental health agencies across the country that serve people with concurrent disorders Social workers, psychologists, physician and nurses (RSAE/RSAS). How Key Markets Will Be Targeted See Marketing Plan below. Political Strategy Federal: There should be one national certification body with national standards. Health Canada should support CACCF being that body. CACCF plan to meet with officials of Health Canada and to continue developing its relationship with the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse. Provincial/Territorial: CACCF plans to meet with senior officials in the various ministries of health. 12
16 RESTRUCTURING PLAN Regional Governance and Operations CACCF s membership has approved a restructuring of its organization into a federated model. This will afford a distribution of labour closer to the where CACCF s members live and practice, and will assist in government liaison. Obviously with a distribution of labour between a national office and regional offices, there will also be a sharing of resources based on the number of members in a region. Smaller regions in terms of number of members may not have full staffing. Staff resources will be purchased from the central office. The eight regions will be: Atlantic provinces Quebec Ontario Manitoba Saskatchewan Alberta British Columbia The Territories [10% of present membership 7 % of Canada s population] [4% of present membership 23 % of Canada s population] [50% of present membership -39 % of Canada s population] [2% of present membership 4 % of Canada s population] [10% of present membership 3 % of Canada s population] [11% of present membership 11 % of Canada s population] [12 % of present membership 13 % of Canada s population] [present one member only less than 1 % of Canada s population] Each of the eight regions will set up its regional association in compliance with the national board s by-laws, policies and procedures. Each region will elect its own board of directors and elect or appoint its representative to the national board. The President and three other officers will be elected from the ranks of the board. 13
17 National Responsibilities The national board and staff will set standards, policies and procedures. They will liaise with the federal government and national NGOs. They will market all certifications. They will liaise with IC & RC. They will administer the Membership Services Division. They will administer the Charitable Foundation Division. Regional Responsibilities Regional boards will develop their own policies and procedures in compliance with the national organization s policies and procedures. They will liaise with provincial and territorial governments and with provincial NGOs. They will market all certifications. They will approve local continuing education training. They will administer the examination process. The next step is to set up interim provincial boards in Alberta and Ontario. By-Laws, Polices and Procedures This business plan s purpose is to take CACCF into its next stage of development. Since CACCF will be reorganized to include regional federated governance and operations within its processes and structures, there will be a need for new by-laws and new policies and procedures. The Executive Director will produce a draft document to be distributed to the Board of Directors for comments and edits. The document will outline: The make-up of the national board of directors How decisions are made The corporate committee structure Responsibilities of the corporate officers and committee chairs Liability and Indemnity of Officers and Directors Contracts, loans, cheques and deposits 14
18 Conflict of Interest and prohibition against sharing in corporate earnings By-law amendment and appeal Financial policies and procedures Personnel policies and procedures Certification policies and procedures Re-certification policies and procedures New certification policies and procedures Policies and procedures for the division of responsibilities between the National Office and CACCF s Regions. Membership Services As part of restructuring itself, CACCF has approved a separate division apart from the certification division to offer services needed by addiction professionals. This new division will be responsible for: Liability and other insurances Employee assistance programs Training and conferences Educational resources Books and other training aids Discounts on goods and services. This division will be overseen by the Executive Director and the designated administrative staff member. It will also be a self-supporting revenue producer. Charitable Foundation CACCF will submit an application for a charitable status foundation. The Foundation will raise funds for: Bursaries for training and attendance at conferences for those wanting to enter the field and those employed in the field who cannot afford attendance at these events Public education particularly school programs The charitable foundation will be overseen by the Executive Director and the designated administrative staff member. 15
19 MARKETING PLAN CACCF is prepared to build on its history and other strengths to aggressively market its products and services. There are three essential markets that CACCF has the products and ability to market to recognizing their unique differences: The general addictions field Health and safety sensitive workforce occupations Tobacco cessation. Alberta Proposal CACCF understands that the Government of Alberta is looking at having all of its addiction workers under one professional organization. Alberta originally wanted to accomplish this by the spring of 2012, but this has been delayed. It was initially leaning towards designating registered social workers as the only qualified addiction workers. This would not be ideal for the addictions field not only in Alberta but for the nation, because of the lack of training and competencies in addiction counselling within the social work profession. It would also be a serious blow to CACCF. Therefore, CACCF must produce a draft alternate proposal and present it to decision makers in Alberta as soon as possible. Suggested talking points in discussions with Alberta: Addictions is a sub specialty. CACCF is the organization that is a most qualified and experienced to ensure knowledge and competencies within Canada s addictions field. All Alberta addiction workers should become members of CACCF. All Alberta addiction workers should move towards certification. All fees should be paid for by the Province of Alberta. Membership fees should include professional liability insurance. The Alberta association would be set up to share responsibility and resources with the National Office. The certification process would include knowledge of CCSA technical and behavioural competencies. 16
20 Pricing and Promotion CACCF will continue to price its products at the minimum amount necessary to cover the costs of administering the programs. Since the organization is about to embark on an aggressive marketing program, promotion costs may have to be considered. Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) for CACCF s Members The CACCF board of directors is considering having liability insurance costs incorporated in the membership fee. This will be difficult to implement. However, the leadership of CACCF cannot shy away from the responsibility. One insurance carrier has recommended that PLI premiums be built into CACCF s membership fee. We understand that the Province of Alberta wants its addiction workers covered for liability by their professional association. If CACCF wants to stay in business it has no choice but to meet this criterion in Alberta. On the other side of the issue, long term members have indicated that they do not want their fees covering PLI since their employers policies cover them. Since each regional association will have a degree of autonomy, Alberta could be set up from the start to include PLI as part of the membership fee. For existing members, involvement with PLI would be voluntary. CACCF would work towards mandatory involvement a year from now. As CACCF develops its regional federated structure, the value of PLI will be seen by CACCF s members. This phased-in approach may very well be the opportunity for advancement CACCF needs. Conferences All three markets will be enhanced by attendance at appropriate conferences. Attractive and informative paper promotion materials are available for distribution. CACCF will engage a public relations advertising company to advise on possible improvements. [Six conferences at $2,000 equal $12,000.] 17
21 New display banners will be produced to give a professional branding image. [$2.000] CACCF will continue to enhance its continual loop PowerPoint presentation. [No cost] Website and Social Media CACCF will continue to upgrade is web site, ensuring that it easily accessible and provides the required information. [Volunteer time] Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Linkages All Social Media will be utilized in raising the profile and awareness of CACCF. [Volunteer time] Direct Marketing CACCF will continue its direct marketing for the RSAE and RSAS with letters distributed to health practitioners, corporations and EAPS. These two new certifications should become good revenue producing initiatives and therefore will be a corner stone of this business plan. A direct marketing tactic will be employed with information brochures mailed to all addiction treatment programs across the country. A mailing on the tobacco cessation program and certification will be sent to all major heart and cancer centres across the country. [5.000 letters at $1.50 per = $7,500] Article Writing and Publication Advertising CACCF will submit articles to the appropriate publications with the idea that we will purchase advertising if the article is published. [$8.000] 18
22 Main Line Media Press releases and letters to the editor will be sent out whenever there is an opportunity. [$2,000] RSAE/RSAS Targets 2012 Based on percentage of Canadian population, weighted for target industries and language, CACCF has established these targets for 2012: Atlantic provinces Quebec Ontario Manitoba Saskatchewan Alberta British Columbia 3 certificants 5 certificants 20 certificants 2 certificants 2 certificants 10 certificants 8 certificants 19
23 OPERATIONS PLAN Like all non-profits, CACCF s strengths and weaknesses lie with its volunteer board of directors. CACCF will conduct a full review of its by-laws specifically around its board structure and regional divisions. Human Resources Currently CACCF has a part time Executive Director on a contractual arrangement with billings at two days a week. As resources increase this will need to be expanded to three days a week eventually leading to a full time Executive Director. Currently there are one and a half administration personnel. The administration contract person (three days a week) will be a full time permanent position by the end of One staff member in the national office will be responsible for the national role. The assistant will assist and also be a resource for the regional associations described in the Restructuring Plan section of this Business Plan. Part time staff will be engaged for the regions once critical mass and resources warranted it. The plan calls for a full time Executive Director by the end of Office Location In this electronic age CACCF can operate from any location. However, since CACCF is a national organization there may be some advantages to sharing space with a sister organization in the nation s capital. CACCF will explore this possibility. Day To Day Operations CACCF s administration processes are well established and working well. Like all service industries, CACCF relies heavily on electronic process systems. CACCF has up-graded its computer capacity. Upgrades will continue to be made as technologies improve. CACCF will invest in staff training to enhance their computer skills including accounting. 20
24 Moving to a mandatory CBT form of testing will streamline the day to day operations. Certification Divisions In 2012, CACCF will concentrate on the basic reorganization. In 2013, with a full time Executive Director, the development of two other certification divisions (Francophone and First Nations) will take place. Language Because Canada has two official languages, CACCF should provide all services in both languages as soon as possible. The ICADC (counsellor) exam will be translated into French in Other certifications will follow as resources allow. A full Francophone division will be developed in 2013/2014. How the Quebec Association will interface with that division will have to be worked out once CACCF s Francophone division has gained some experience. 21
25 FINANCIAL PLAN Past Three Years Experience 2010 Revenue & Expenses Revenue $173,619 Expenditure $176, Revenue & Expenses Revenue $183,336 Expenditure $183, Revenue & Expenses Revenue Revenue $181,033 Expenditure $198,363 Average Over The Three Period Revenue $179,330 Expenditure $186,230 22
26 Projection for the Next Three Years A projected increase in revenue is based on the aggressive marketing of the all certifications but specifically for the RSAE and RSAS certifications. There is a corresponding increased projection for costs. If CACCF expands as a national organization it will need an infusion of funding, estimated at $120,000. This could be achieved by negotiating with Alberta for all its addiction workers to become part of CACCF and heavy marketing of the RSAE program Projections Revenue $303,620 Expenditure $290,080 Surplus $13,540 Equity $13,540 The Revenue projection is based on fifty RSAE RSAS certificants ($25,000), plus an additional 400 Alberta members ($80,000), and grants and membership service revenue of ($25,000). The expenditure projection is based on marketing ($30,500) a full time Executive Director for part of the year ($50,000) travel ($10,000), legal and development costs ($20,000) and staff training ($3,000). Grant Resources Health Canada Provincial and Territorial Ministries of Health Foundations Loans 23
