Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Peterborough District Curriculum
Students are expected to demonstrate effective communication skills. Students write analytical essays. They read a variety of challenging texts across the curriculum for meaning and author intent. They gather evidence from their reading, develop theses, and use the evidence to support their ideas. They also make oral presentations and are expected to be active and thoughtful listeners, as well. Students communicate in a variety of ways and mediums and are expected to become able to communicate effectively through all forms.
Students are also expected to demonstrate effective problem solving skills. In science classes, they learn the scientific method which promotes thoughtful investigation of problems. They begin with a study of the physical world and investigate the world around them, culminating in more complex engineering problems. Students are expected to use the knowledge they have gained effectively.
Testimonials and Case Studies from Our Parents
SchoolTutoring Academy has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was very self-conscious about her difficulties with the math section of the SAT. SchoolTutoring Academy's Academic Directors created an action plan that boosted my daughter's score and confidence level.
SchoolTutoring Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades. Test Prep Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades.
SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son's math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What's particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.

Keeping Informed: Recent Peterborough Educational News
- Mentor Program - The ConVal Mentor Program is an important part of developing a strong set of instructors across the district. Each new teacher is assigned a mentor who guides them through the ins and outs of the district and also benefits from the new ideas of new community members.
- Library & Technology Services - Students have a broad array of library and technology resources that they can use for research and independent projects. Staff are able to help students learn how to navigate these resources, which is a great opportunity for students to prepare for college academics and learn about different presentation technologies.
- Upcoming Events - In order to help students and families plan for upcoming events, special program opportunities, test dates, college visits, and provide resources to help students connect with work and learning opportunities, the district has set up a page where families can keep current with what is going on.
Chalk Talk: Private vs. Public Colleges
The primary difference between private and public colleges is the way they're funded. Public institutions are funded by the state, whereas private colleges tend to be funded by tuition. Because of this, each type of institution accepts students in different ways. Public colleges are mandated that they must accept a certain number of in-state residents. They tend to receive a high volume of applicants, and often are short staffed. Therefore, they tend to read applications quickly and have higher acceptance rates. Public universities tend to focus on GPA and standardized test scores to determine admissions eligibility. Private colleges tend to be more holistic in their approach to admissions. They also tend to treat students more like customers and thereby attempt to make them happy by focusing on the student experience.

Good Morning Dear Friends and Families, have a splendid and blessed new week.
Waking up to a new day is a gifr, appreciate it and do remember you are loved.
Good day Friends: The LORD our God raises the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from their misery. (Ps 113:7). May He bless you today and every day!
To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.
Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. (John 1:29)
We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.

you guys do anything maybe on the creative side of things besides trying to get by and through the day?
I am currently watching a cartoon called Samurai Jack...you'd think it was just a silly/simple cartoon but its really brilliant from the artwork to the storyline. sometimes I wish I had a vision like some of these guys out there. Even when it comes to creating stories in general.
whatever, all i'm saying is....are you working on anything to leave behind on this planet? a legacy? something you're proud of at work?

From 11 to 13 November 2014, some 4,000 convention-goers and trade fair visitors attended the annual meeting of the European Association for Technical Communication – tekom Europe e.V. at the ICS International Congress Center Stuttgart.
In so doing, the industry meeting place for technical editors and information developers from industrial, software and service companies got off to a perfect start.
"Our high expectations were more than met", comments Dr. Michael Fritz, Managing Director of tekom, on the event's premiere at the ICS and the rise in visitor numbers in Stuttgart. "Our tekom annual meeting is perfectly situated in the centre of one of Europe's economically strongest regions that is also home to a German city renowned for its high-tech credentials, and profits still further from the English-language tcworld conference and tekom trade fair held at the same time."
tekom changed the location of its annual meeting from Wiesbaden to Stuttgart and plans to continue holding the event at the ICS through to 2017. The new location is attractive for several reasons. First, the professional association has its offices in Stuttgart and stays in close touch with the universities in Baden-Württemberg. Many members are also employed by industrial companies and service providers throughout the region. All target groups are addressed directly with the comprehensive three-day programme.
The combination of meeting, international convention and trade fair is widely regarded as the largest venue for technical communication worldwide. This year, the ICS provided a total of 7,800 square metres of floor space. Thanks to the versatile premises, the distances walked between the over 230 workshops and lecture areas as well as the stands of the 180 exhibiting companies remained as short as possible. Participants and exhibitors alike praised the close proximity to Stuttgart Airport and the ease with which people can arrive at and leave the grounds in particular.
For Stefan Lohnert, Division Director Guest Events, the tekom annual meeting is the optimal addition to the cluster strategy, which also focuses on events in the IT and automotive sectors. "A great deal of well-known industrial companies are headquartered in the Stuttgart region, and the need for intelligent IT solutions continues to grow, especially in the core sectors of automotive and mechanical engineering. Technical communication therefore plays a critical role in this context."

UCI World Cycling Centre: the finer points of coaching off-road disciplines
Coaches of cycling's off-road disciplines have been discovering new techniques and acquiring new skills on the Coach Diploma course at the UCI World Cycling Centre (WCC).
Seven coaches from as many countries have spent the last three weeks in Aigle, Switzerland, learning from the experts during classroom and practical sessions.
Between the BMX talent identification camp and the development camp for young cyclo-cross riders, the course participants have had plenty of opportunities to see the UCI WCC expert coaches in action. The course also included two days dedicated to the mountain bike discipline.
"This Coach Diploma course has been an excellent opportunity for the trainee coaches to learn alongside the experts," explains UCI WCC High Performance Manager Belinda Tarling. "We had 27 BMX athletes on our talent identification camp, some of whom will be aiming for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Our Diploma students were able to witness how experienced international coaches work with raw young talent from the world over."
Similarly, the students participated in the cyclo-cross development camp, which culminated in a race, the EKZ CrossTour in Aigle, where they could see how the athletes had absorbed their coaches' advice and put into practice their new skills.
While the first Coach Diploma course of the year in August was devoted to coaches of track and road cycling, the current course is specifically tailored for off-road.
What the coaches have to say
Former BMX athlete Outi Leinonen desperately wants to see the discipline grow in her home country of Finland and jumped at the chance to attend the off-road Coach Diploma course.
"I am learning a lot and have been making so many notes," she said. "Finland doesn't have formally trained BMX coaches, so my goal is to develop a programme for Finland. At the moment, you have one person saying 'A', another saying 'B', another saying 'C' and the athlete's dad saying 'D'.
"I've travelled around the world and seen different systems but since I've been here (at the UCI WCC) I've quite often been thinking 'I wish I had known that when I was racing.'! It's a little bit frustrating.
"My dream is to have one of our athletes training here, but I can see that for the moment the level is too high."
Course colleague Mark West is founder and Manager of a mountain bike team in Lesotho, the Sufferfest African Dream Team, which has been going from strength to strength in the last couple of years: one member competed at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, and three athletes at the 2017 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships in Cairns, Australia. The team is ranked in the top third of the UCI Mountain Bike Ranking.
"So far, I have been more of a facilitator for the team, trying to open doors to get them better equipment," explains West. "But as they get better, it has become obvious that they need more people coaching."
He said he would introduce a more scientific approach to their training as well as place more emphasis on skills,
"Most riders learn basic stuff as a kid but my guys didn't spend their childhoods on bikes."
The Coaching Diploma course covers all aspects of training, from talent detection, through to planning and delivering sessions, monitoring performance, and event analysis. All participants must pass written and practical exams to receive the UCI Coaching Diploma.

Research and Evaluation In 2002 Arts Impact was one of seventeen arts organizations selected from more than 200 applicants nationally to receive a nearly $1 million U.S. Department of Education Arts Education Model Development and Dissemination AEMDD grant. The grant focused on two distinct but related projects—teacher training and student achievement in an Arts-Infused classroom.
Lesson Plans Arts Impact uses a common lesson plan format co-designed with teachers. The lesson plan identifies key art lesson components such as targets/criteria, the big idea of the lesson, teaching and classroom management strategies, cultural and material resources, vocabulary, assessment strategies, and state arts standards. This format is used throughout all components of the Arts Impact program. Learn more and find examples of Arts Impact lesson plans.

Allow Me to Tell You Why Giving Yourself Your First Brazilian Is a Terrible Idea
It's basically SAW: Beauty Edition.
We all know that one of the best ways to eat better and save money is to cook at home. But when I can, I like to take it one step further and make some of the packaged or processed foods I would typically buy premade.
There is no getting around the fact that this indeed takes longer than dashing to the grocery store, but in my experience, organization is the key to making it fit into my schedule. Sundays are the days I do big batch cooking for the week, so while I'm roasting chicken and making pho broth, I'll make a few of the recipes listed below, too. It's become one of my favorite parts of the weekend.
Read on for some of my favorite homesteading recipes, and please share yours in the comments!
Store-bought flour tortillas are fine, but when you discover how easy (and CHEAP!) it is to make them fresh, I doubt you'll ever look back. If you won't be using them all at once, feel free to roll them out, stack them with wax paper or parchment between them, wrap, and freeze until you need them. Then, cook according to the recipe directions on an as-needed basis, and enjoy their soft, chewy wonderfulness whenever you want.
Makes 12 tortillas.
Jam is the ultimate way to stop time – or at least, to preserve beautiful fresh fruit at the peak of its freshness to be enjoyed whenever you want. This spicy tomato jam recipe is my own (and works well with Roma tomatoes, which are available year round), but in general, when I need a good jam recipe, I look to my friend Sean's website, Punk Domestics.
I usually use this one up within a week, but if you want to seal it in jars to be shelf stable, follow the canning instructions in the pickled vegetable recipe below.
Butter isn't something I usually go out of my way to make, since good butter (my favorite is Kerrygold, salted) is so readily available and affordable, but if I happen to have extra heavy cream around (usually after a big baking project), I immediately turn it into butter before it has the chance to go bad. There is absolutely nothing better than good, fresh butter (try it on a homemade tortilla!).
Makes about 1/2 cup butter (approximately 1 stick).
1. Place heavy whipping cream and salt in a sturdy mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand-up mixer.
2. Beat, either using an electric mixer or the whisk on a stand-up mixer, well past the stiff-peaks phase of whipping the cream, until the solids begin to separate from the liquid and curds of butter form -- about 8-9 minutes of electric beating.
3. Discard the liquid and mold the butter into the desired shape. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Note: This can be done with a whisk by hand or by pouring the cream into a large glass jar and shaking it. It just takes at least 20 minutes of non-stop shaking/whipping.
Crème fraiche is basically fancy sour cream, and can be used in just about any way you would use sour cream or Mexican crema. It's also fabulous on toast or crackers with smoked salmon.
Makes about 2 cups.
1. Stir the cream and buttermilk together gently, place in a glass jar and cover tightly.
2. Allow to sit at room temperature for at least 16 hours, and up to 24. Cream will be very thick.
3. Once cream has thickened, use immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.
When I learned how easy it is to make fresh ricotta, I stopped buying it altogether -- even the high quality fresh kind. Not only is it dirt cheap to make it at home (and I almost always have all of the ingredients on hand anyway), but freshly made ricotta is so utterly delicious, you will want to eat it by the spoonful (and you should, drizzled with a little bit of good extra virgin olive oil and some flaky sea salt).
Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
1. Line a strainer with a cheesecloth and position it over a large bowl. Set aside.
2. Bring milk and 1 cup cream to a boil in a medium pot (watch it carefully so it doesn't scorch). Remove from heat.
3. Stir in the vinegar and salt and and let mixture sit for 5 minutes, until the milk curds completely separate from the liquid (whey).
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared cheesecloth-lined strainer and drain the whey, squeezing the cheesecloth to encourage the liquid to come out. Continue doing so until the mixture is the texture of cottage cheese.
5. Transfer ricotta to a bowl, season with more salt if desired and stir in the remaining cream. Use immediately or cover tightly and refrigerate.
6. The ricotta will keep for about 4 days, but is best if eaten as soon as possible.
This pickling technique will work for just about any vegetable. I whip it out any time our CSA box comes with more of something than we'll be able to get through within the course of a week.
Feel free to get creative with flavorings. I sometimes add fresh herbs, whole peppercorns, sliced chiles, or mustard seeds. And a jar of these makes a great gift!

W7 Home Premium
W7 Home Premium Freeze/Not Responding ALL programs
My Windows 7 Home desktop is only 6 months old. About 3 weeks ago, it started freezing progams with the message of (Not Responding). They would remain frozen anywhere from 10 seconds to 5 minutes. During this time, the mouse is NOT frozen and am able to select other windows and start menu, but if selecting another program or window typically has a the same delay/freeze/no operation (if opening new program, etc). Also, the CTL+ALT+DEL is either non-functional during this time, or is just as delayed as the programs currently frozen. The Task Manager will finally appear, but this is after the other open programs have unfrozen, as well.
So far, I have done the following:
> Ran the desktop in CLEAN BOOT - no effect
> Retored the desktop back to a previous date before the problem began - no effect
> Reset the desktop back to Factory Default - no effect
> Only have one (1) AV program (MS Security Essentials)
> I have opened the Device Manager, selected and updated all drivers of devices installed. All said were up-to-date. I then uninstalled and re-installed my graphics driver (just to see) - no effect
> I have set the Power Option to HIGH PERFORMANCE as I have heard others claim this fixed their problem - no effect
> I have taken the desktop to my retailer who checked for Hardware/Software conflicts/issues - no issues were found.
> I have turned off the Aero effect. Set back to Win7 Basic. - no effect
> I have completed and continue to be up-to-date with Windows Update - no effect
I'm sure there is more I have already tried, but am probably drawing a blank at this point.
My major question is -- why did the desktop run fine for 6 months, then all of a sudden have these issues? If it was something I had installed, downloaded or had a virus/malware, it would have been wiped during the re-install of the OS and/or the support technicians would have found issues left behind (is what they claimed).
Anyone have any resolutions/suggestions besides what I have already mentioned above?

It isn't memory. I only need 512 mb, as I don't do any more now than 10 years ago. In terms of multitasking. But the computer came with 4 GB, and a large graphics card I don't use. I am not a gamer. The problem started today. It is like a beached whale, everything is not responding but if I let it go, it probably will after 5 minutes. It acts like memory, but that seems impossible.
Itunes doesn't need that much to operate, and it won't run right with nothing else even running.

If one app hangs while all others work, thread 0 in that app is blocked (on something), which causes the UI to no longer respond to mouse events, repaint requests, etc., which makes it appear hung (it's still running, but the thread that's running the message pump for that process that handles all of these sorts of events is waiting on something else, so it can't handle any more updates until that "something else" finishes and unblocks thread 0). What you want to do in that case is to open task manager, find the application that is hung on the "applications" tab, and right-click it and select "go to process". This will take you to the "processes" tab, with a particular .exe highlighted (the one that corresponds to the hung application). Right-click on that .exe in the list, and select "create dump file" to dump the hung process out to a .dmp file in your %tmp% directory. Compress that file and then upload it somewhere we can all download it, and we can probably give you some insight as to what's happening. Again, if it's just one app is hung, while all others running while this app is misbehaving continue to work just fine, the likelihood this is a hardware problem is nil. Get a dump, and we can very likely tell you what is happening.

Did you actually test the memory, which is the only way to know for sure?
If you don't want to download and burn to CD the superior memtest86 to run 5-6 passes, then use the built-in Windows Memory Diagnostic Test. Memtest86 - Download Page.URL
It sounds to me like you need a clean reinstall of a bloated corrupted factory OEM install. Do you have the install DVD or can you borrow one for your version to clean install using Product Key on the COA sticker attached to machine? Clean Install Windows 7 - Windows 7 Forums.URL
Until you are ready to do that, run sfc /scannow as Administrator by typing CMD in Start search box then rightclick result at top to Run As Admin, type sfc /scannow into box.

I bought Windows 7 about 6 months ago to upgrade over the Vista. Sadly, it sucks the same as Vista. I heard it was like XP, and that is not the case. Anyway, I reinstalled Windows 7 without updates. I read the security features were holding it up, and I did a huge download at Microsofts suggestion on security. The memo said it was holding things up to check. Whatever the deal, it is working. Also, I couldn't restore to an earlier point. It said I had no restore point.

An Upgrade over Vista is an inferior install which imports any corruption from Vista. You need to clean reinstall.

Acrylic Tanks form Tankmaker
Greeting to All!
1) Message from Tankmaker Gerald, Nov'2016:
"Unlike shop front sales, customized aquarium business requires exceptional networking & opportunity. We don't think we could be in business for the past 14 years if without opportunities and support given by customers and hobylist, especially the bro/sis from arofanatics.com forum.
2) Acrylic Tank
With invaluable experience and expertise in aquarium tank building, we are able to supply the complete tank package, which is primarily made of acrylic material to fulfill the demands of a sound & safe product. Tank made of acrylic also provide high optical clarity and an immaculate appearance.
All acrylic tanks of size 1ft to 20 ft are built through the tankmaker fabricator site located in Singapore (TankmakerSG.com) or Taiwan (TankmakerTW.com); larger tanks will be fabricated on-site due to transport constraints.
A pre-requistive for a good tank is for it to be extremely SAFE, especially during mishaps like earth quakes and accidents; this can only be achieved through using acrylic to build our tanks. Thus, our TankMaker TW and Tankmaker IN teams were formed in the respective countries to advocate acrylic tanks through marketing and providing facilities in acrylic tank fabrication. This is the basic social responsibility that the TankMaker Team could do in providing a safe acrylic aquarium to customers and visitors to their home.
Custom made of the acrylic tank is available at TankmakerSG Product
1) About Us
A) Tankmaker SG
Being in the custom-made aquarium industry for more than a decade, we have found that aquariums are an integral part in the houses of hobbyists; it is also important for non-hobbyists for their interior decoration, medical theraphy or fengshui needs.
Thus, from 2002, our team, with the nickname of Tank_maker, has started to design and build high quality aquariums that are leakage proof in Singapore.

B) TankMaker TW
At TankMaker.com, we know that the best solutions for good tanks come from having the right people working on the right project. We also understand that a pre-requistive for a good tank is to have a extremely SAFE tank that can survive through mishaps like earth quake or accidents; this is achieved through using acrylic as our tank buiding material.
Thus TankMaker TW was formed to advocate acrylic tanks in Taiwan; it is also equipped with facilities in acrylic tank fabrication. This is the basic social responsibility that we, the TankMaker Team, can do by providing safe acrylic aquariums to customers and ensuring a safe environment to their visitors as well.
TankmakerTW also serves as a warranty and a support centre for TankMaker.com products in Taiwan.
C) TankMaker IN
With blooming aquarium need in India, TankmakerIN was set up with the prime objective of providing safe acrylic aquarium. I cannot imagine what I would do if my child were to stand in front of a huge glass aquarium, constantly worrying about the fact that the glass might shatter at any moment - it's as if the glass tank was a time bomb! So in terms of safety, it will not be a sound decision to build aquariums using glass in public places.
TankMakerIN also serves as a warranty and a support centre for TankMaker products in India.

About Glass Tank
TankMaker Team also supply customized glass tanks such as aquariums, water tanks, industrial storage tanks, bio-reactor chambers and etc. These tanks, available in all sizes, are custom-made by the tankmaker.com team in Singapore using safety glass that go through heat-soaked process (not temper, tempering can achieve the hardness like the door of shopping mall but upon failure it could be catastrophic; the water pressure in the tank push the shattered glass chip and blast like a bomb.
Heat soaked glass have the strength of tempered glass and the safety of normal glass that a crack line formed upon failure. However, the heat soaked glass cost more than acrylic material for small and midsize aquarium; thus production made full acrylic tank is generally suggested for small and midsize aquarium instead of glass when both cost and safety are considered.
Thus, till date, we are keeping the principle of deliver unique and safe aquariums to each and every one of our clients in mind. These focus making Tankmaker's tank become valuable assets that many moving it along when they move house.
As a gesture of appreciation and proven quality workmanship, TankMaker.com are offering up to 50% trade in value of last buying price for customer having tank upgraded for the past 14 years.

Sept. 5-11, 2002
By Luke Eggleston/ SUN staff writer
A couple shares their story of faith and love
PULASKI — When Father John Hogan talks about regular members at St. John the Evangelist in Pulaski, Kenneth and Ernestine Yerdon are inevitably mentioned.
"They're probably the oldest, most active couple in the church," Father Hogan said. "They're such an inspiration. They're always upbeat and happy. They both have a sense of humor and they can laugh at themselves."
He's just a few months away from being 90 and she is 95, and they still attend church weekly. Although Ken isn't Catholic, he has attended St. John's with Ernestine throughout their 34 years of marriage.
"I've gone every week, unless I'm sick," Ken said. Although they first met in 1932, a series of coincidences brought them back together, leading to their marriages in 1968. After losing her mother, Ernestine worked with her brothers at the family-owned hotel.
"Next to the hotel was the dance hall. One night I had gone over there, and Ken came in and he asked me to dance," said Ernestine, recalling Ken as a "sharp looking kid." "When I saw her that night in the dance hall, I knew someday I would marry her," Ken said. "She was very attractive and a good dancer."
After their first meeting, Ken left to work at Crouse Hinds in Syracuse for six years. Before he was drafted for World War II, he married his first wife and they had one child.
During the war, he served five months with the mounted police. "On a Wednesday, I got a phone call saying that my wife, who at the time was pregnant again, was in the hospital. They gave me a dependence discharge," Ken said.
"If it weren't for the discharge, I wouldn't be alive today." After the war, Ken, his wife, son and baby daughter moved back to the country. In 1965, at the age of 50, Ken's wife passed away. Meanwhile, after their first meeting, Ernestine continued to work in the hotel.
It was at the hotel that she met her first husband during the war. "A gentleman, who ate at the hotel often, said to me, 'If I come back from the war a colonel, will you marry me?' I replied, 'Just come back.'"
In 1944, at the age of 37, Ernestine married her first husband. He became sick in 1965 and died that same year.
That fall, Ernestine made a trip to Redfield to buy decorations for the family's hotel, which her brother still owned.
"On the way, we passed Ken and we waved," Ernestine said. "That's how it was. Over the years, we had passed each other several times, and gave a wave."
Ken and Ernestine met on several occasions, but it was not until after two years after Ernestine's husband's death that they started seeing each other regularly.
During this time, Ernestine recalls, one week she was unable to maintain a tradition of bringing flowers to her mother's grave on Sunday.
"He usually went with me. So I told Ken that I couldn't go that day. I asked him to hold onto the flowers," Ernestine said. "When I did have the chance to go, the flowers were already there. He had gone by himself."
Ken explained that he realized how much it meant to Ernestine. He said, "I did it because I didn't want to lose her again."
They were married in October of 1968. Over the years, the couple created a way of compromising on their activities.
"I like to hunt and fish, and she likes to shop," Ken said. "It works out well. We go somewhere I can fish, and she'll head off to the stores. It's a great marriage. We like each other and we're very compatible."
After Ken had to have a quadruple bi-pass surgery in 1991, the couple moved to their current residence.
Before moving, Ernestine made sure the location was close to a church so that she could attend daily Mass.
"After Mass one week, Father Keeffe said to me that the new priest's name was Father John Hogan. I later learned he was tall, dark and handsome," Ernestine said with a laugh. During one of the first Masses with the new pastor, she found out that he could also sing beautifully. "If you didn't go to church, you would be inspired to go."
Father Hogan explains that he formed a friendship with Ernestine and Ken through their regular participation at St. John's Church.
"Ernestine is part of a small-knit group that goes to daily Mass. And after a while, it became easy to recognize when Ken wasn't doing well. It showed in Ernestine, she would be so anxious," Father Hogan said.
He added that although Ken has had health problems, the couple remains upbeat and energetic. "They're such an inspiration. Even when I would visit Ken when he was sick, he always had a great attitude," Father Hogan said. "He still comes with Ernestine to Mass every week. That's more than most Catholics. To me, he's like an honorary Catholic."

Boels orders 100 Niftylifts
Netherlands based rental company Boels Verhuur B.V has placed an order with Niftylift for 100 new hydraulic work platforms.
The order which was placed through Niftylift's dealer in the Netherlands, Eurosupply Hoogwerksystemen B.V., consists of the popular HR12N Boom Lift and Nifty 120T Cherry Picker and Nifty 170 Cherry Picker. These platform types have proven very popular maintenance companies, municipalities, painters and window cleaners, as well as private individuals looking for a safe method for working at height.
Boels and Niftylift have been business partners for over twenty years. In 2008 the specialist in rental solutions approached for the first time Eurosupply directly, being an extension of Niftylift. Senior Buyer of Boels, Ton Brockbernd, recalls:
"We purchased then 190 aerial work platforms from Eurosupply. This cooperation worked out excellent and consequently this is the second big order within two years."
Boels sets high value on the fact that Eurosupply delivers the machines 'rental ready', including the necessary registration certification, to the various Boels' depots. Ton Brockbernd:
"They even take care of service, maintenance, repair and inspection."
Managing director of Eurosupply, Daan van de Poel, who started Eurosupply twenty years ago, now the exclusive dealer Niftylift the Netherlands comments:
"The company has been developed to an innovative, distinguished and down-to-earth company with close to twenty employees. Especially these days it is great that we can add again hundred machines to the existing rental fleet of a well-known company like Boels, with over two hundred depots in six countries."

During the week I tipped Galway to win Connacht but I was surprised how easy it was for them against Roscommon. Alan Mulholland has come in and there is a freshness about the Tribesmen.
He has that respect from the successes at minor and under-21. Galway quietly got through the league so they came into the championship slightly under the radar. They have had some impressive performances and they were very good again on Sunday. Really, they had it won in the first 20 minutes. They worked hard - particularly in the forward line - and pushed up on the Roscommon defence to force them into errors.
They were dominant in the middle of the park where Joe Bergin was excellent and they hit their full-forward line with quick, direct ball. Paul Conroy was in fantastic form, kicking an early score, and it was all Galway for the opening quarter.
Their opponents, however, handled poorly and lacked the hunger and desire for the battle. They were on home turf at Hyde Park and I expected a lot more from them. Maybe there's still a hangover from their Connacht success a couple of years ago but it's time for Des Newton to bring through a few more of the under-21s. I think he will do that during the qualifiers.
Mulholland said that they were edgy before the game but now the challenge will be to keep their feet on the ground. After the margin of victory expectation levels will certainly soar.
I expect them to beat Sligo to get to another Connacht final which will underline the quick progress that they have made.
There is room for improvement, particularly in the full-back line where they looked a little shaky at times. From there up the field, though, they look pretty formidable. Gareth Bradshaw has been one of the linchpins of the team and he gave them real pace on the flanks and popped up with two points. As well as the excellent platform Bergin gave them at midfield, Gary Sice was prominent at wing-forward and in front of him all the full-forward line scored.
They also had the added bonus of bringing on Michael Meehan and Padraig Joyce. I think we could see Meehan in the starting 15 soon. He has that experience and an awareness on the ball. He brings others into the game and he could do a job for them at centre-forward. Having said that, Damien Burke led the line well in terms of their work rate.
It's too early to judge whether Galway will challenge the main All-Ireland contenders. It's difficult to know how bad Roscommon were. Galway built up that momentum in the first 20 minutes and from there they were never tested. We won't see them with their backs to the wall until later on in the championship.
They have all the fundamentals of a good strong team and they have that strength in depth which will be important as the summer goes on.
There has been a lot of talk over the last number of years about midfield not being as important as it once was. But with the way Galway play, they need that platform. Michael Finneran was a big loss to Roscommon and as soon as he went off Galway turned the screw. The side is in the early stages of its development so I wouldn't put them in the same league as the top three at the moment.
In Ulster, Donegal were up against a youthful Cavan side with five debutants. Terry Hyland is attempting to introduce a number of the underage stars that they have had recent success with and I do see a good future for them. Donegal's greater experience told in the end and it was a fine performance without Michael Murphy.
What I noticed about them during the league was that they were committing more players forward. They still funnel players back but Jim McGuinness is tweaking their approach. He knows that the style of play they adopted last year won't be good enough to push them all the way.
They may have learned certain lessons, particularly that if the game is there for them they can open up and attack it. Without Murphy, though, Donegal are an average outfit and a lot will hinge on whether he is in the side over the coming months.
Longford made a big step-up at Pearse Park. To come back from six points down against a side with the recent championship upper hand over them continues the progress they have made under Glenn Ryan. They came into the game with momentum from a successful league campaign while Laois were at the other end of the scale.
It is a massive boost for Longford to be going to Croke Park with a game under the belt and I think they can make a mark on the championship. They play a nice brand of football in contrast to Laois who are playing a game that doesn't suit them. I'm not so sure they can improve. They are playing a more defensive game but that only works if you have a strong forward line, which they don't have at the moment.
Westmeath dominated for large parts against Louth but kicked an awful lot of wides. Louth have another chance against Dublin after feeling they didn't do themselves justice against them in the qualifiers a couple of years ago. It may be a step too far but scoring a winning goal so deep into injury time will drive their confidence levels up.
In Munster, Limerick were expected to win and they came through the test against Waterford handy enough in the end. They are on the right side of the draw from their perspective with a game to come against Clare. We've seen them go close before in Munster finals but they have a fair bit of progress to make and I can't see any other outcome except another provincial title for one of the big two.
Predict this week to be in be in the running for All-Ireland tickets.

Angling Matters
Taking a break from the excitement and activity of the International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades show (better known as ICAST) in Orlando this summer, I had a chance to catch up with an old friend from Louisiana who covers fish and fishery issues for a local newspaper. As an aside, ICAST is the world's largest sportfishing trade show, and draws people from all over the nation and the globe to check out the latest awesome innovations in fishing gear, technology and apparel. Every angler should make a pilgrimage to ICAST once in their lives just to baste in everything that makes angling so much fun.
My friend's job forced him to leave the bright lights of the show and cross over to the dark side of panel presentations that covered some of the more antagonistic issues impacting recreational fisheries, including one on Gulf red snapper and another on the reauthorization of the Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA), the overarching law governing federal fisheries.
Set in a meeting room just outside the massive main hall of the convention center, the contrast between the gritty and often unpleasant machinations of federal management of fisheries and the glitz and economic power of recreational fishing just across the hall was jarring. Metaphorically speaking, the unmistakable conclusion of the panel presentations is that the federal government is a giant anchor, dragging down all the horsepower of recreational angling.
After the presentations, my friend asked a rather reflective question. He wanted to know what could be done to turn federal management into less of an anchor and more…well….of an engine.
It's a good question, without an easy answer.
For decades recreational angling has been the impetus to improve and enhance marine habitat and resources. A trip around the aisles of ICAST reveals unmistakably that anglers are wildly passionate about what they do. That passion not only translates into product development that fills hundreds of thousands of square feet of exhibit space every year; it fuels a conservation model that the federal government either chooses to ignore or simply doesn't fully appreciate.
Every time anglers purchase some of those incredible products on display at ICAST - a package of hooks, a fishing rod, reel, lure, tackle box, depth finder, trolling motor – and even fuel for our fishing boat, etc. we pay an excise tax that goes into a fund called the Sport Fishing and Boating Trust Fund. The majority of those funds go back to the states for fisheries conservation, angling and boating access and boating safety. More than 18 percent of that fund is dedicated to a program called the Coastal Wetlands Program. In 2015 alone, that 18.5% equates to around $112 million going to on-the-ground projects to conserve and restore coastal habitats.
And that is just a small part of the story. Anglers not only put their money where their passion is, they identify things that can be done to improve the resource. And then they go do those things. Every CCA chapter has a long list of impressive accomplishments that would not have been done without anglers. Things like opening Cedar Bayou in Texas, reviving the Independence Island reef in Louisiana, removing gill nets from the main stem of the lower Columbia River, launching oyster recycling programs in South Carolina and Georgia, building reefs in the St. Johns River in Florida, and much, much more.
The federal government looks at commercial fishing and sees a neat equation of relatively few harvesters extracting large amounts of public natural resources and selling them for profit. They can get their head around the motivations and they can count it all. They understand that the goal of industrial fishing is to harvest the most fish possible while putting the least amount possible back into the resource. The feds understand profits. For them, managing commercial fisheries is like putting on a comfortable old pair of shoes. They "get" commercial fishing, and because they do, it matters to them.
The federal management system looks at recreational angling and sees a huge, amorphous entity. It doesn't seem to matter that we spend a lot of money to harvest relatively few fish. Counting exactly how many fish we catch is of utmost importance to the feds, but they have no idea how to do that. We don't have a profit motivation, and they aren't sure at all why we put so much back into conservation and habitat enhancement. They just don't "get" recreational angling, and because they don't, it doesn't matter to them.
It was highly ironic to be having a conversation like this right in the middle of ICAST, where the air was practically crackling with the excitement, energy and potential of recreational angling. The answer to my friend's question was literally right there in front of us. In order for the federal government to be less of an anchor and more of an engine, it needs to realize one simple thing.
Angling Matters.

By Hilary Russ
NEWARK, N.J. (Reuters) - The board overseeing the construction of a new train tunnel under New York's Hudson River agreed on Thursday to solicit information from private-sector construction and finance firms about how to complete the multibillion-dollar project.
The tunnel, part of national rail company Amtrak's $24 billion Gateway Program, could potentially use a public-private partnership (P3) model to build and finance portions of the project, John Porcari, interim director of the Gateway Program Development Corporation, told board trustees.
"We're really looking for the best ideas from around the world," he said. Requesting information from private companies is different than actually requesting bids, which would come later.
Private firms have been "consistently... reaching out throughout the gestation of this whole project" and "there's a very high level of interest," he told reporters after the meeting.
The project is moving ahead as pressure mounts on the region's overburdened transportation system.
This summer, Amtrak plans to replace tracks and switches in its existing century-old tunnel into New York's Pennsylvania Station, the site of recent derailments and the source of misery for tens of thousands of commuters.
In a slide show, Porcari described the need for a new tunnel in the corporation's starkest terms yet, saying there could be "colossal impacts" that cascade nationwide without one.
But there is uncertainty about whether Gateway will ultimately get all the federal funding it needs under the Trump administration.
Meanwhile, the corporation still lacks a permanent director and some internal governance structures, including a procurement process.
Former Port Authority vice-chairman Scott Rechler said in a recent interview that big projects sometimes do not do all the preparatory work necessary if they do not know where all their money will come from.
However, without those things in place, it is harder to get the money, he said.
"Gateway is a little bit in that mode right now," he said. "Even hiring a permanent director. It's hard to fill the job if you don't know where the source of funds is coming from."
Richard Bagger, who represents New Jersey on the corporation's board, said a search committee is meeting weekly with a professional search firm.
"We expect the search to be progressing actively over the summer and are hoping to conclude by September," he told reporters.
Trustees also voted on Thursday to look for an outside law firm to lay out a procurement process and finish other structural matters.

Now that the snow is finally behind us, we can start to look forward to warm spring weather. Along with the sun, we can start sipping on refreshing cocktails like the classic mojito.
With flavours of lime and mint, there's nothing more refreshing than a cold mojito on a hot day. Here's how to prepare the perfect one courtesy of Esquire.
The Classic Mojito
- 1/2 oz. lime juice (squeezed fresh)
- 1 tsp. superfine sugar
- 3 mint leaves
- 2 oz. white rum
- Club soda or seltzer
- Collins glass
- In a smallish Collins glass, muddle lime juice with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon superfine sugar
- Add the few mint leaves, mushing them against the side of the glass
- Fill glass 2/3 with cracked ice and pour in the rum
- Pitch in the squeezed-out lime shell and top off with club soda or seltzer
- Enjoy!
– Tess

Tourism in Greece traces its roots to the ancient times. When Greece was annexed by the Roman Empire, the cultural exchange that started between the two civilization triggered as a result a large number of Romans visiting the famous centers of Greek philosophy and science, such as Athens, Corinth and Thebes, partly because Greece had become a province of the Roman Empire and Greeks were granted Roman citizenship.
The Greek Archipelago takes up 7,500 km of the country's total 16,000 km coastline, offering a highly diversified landscape: beaches stretching over many kilometers, sheltered bays and coves, sandy beaches with sand-dunes, pebble beaches, coastal caves with steep rocks and dark colored sand typical of volcanic soil and coastal wetlands.

They don't and never will see themselves in that light. Sometimes it's class driven, sometimes it's racially driven, but in either case they don't see themselves as the "problem" they rail against because they would never consider themselves as something other than middle class - even when the paycheck isn't there to back it up.

"Class" is thought of inherently as culture and not a purely financially numerical statistic. In the minds of many, the opposite of upper class is "low" class, meaning worthless. And who would admit to being worthless? So ultimately, one votes against their own self interests because they don't consider themselves part of that crowd; the crowd who in their eyes are the problem.

Digital content and online shopping isn't going anywhere anytime soon (thank god!), but honestly - who doesn't LOVE a good day spent out shopping and brunching? All my Melb girls will agree that we seriously have some of the best centres and shopping strips around, and one of my faves has to be High St in Armadale.
I spent the other day taking some much needed time off from this hectic week (keep an eye out for my wrap-up post for VAMFF at the end of the week!) ducking in and out of some of my fave stores and cafes on High St...check it.
1. Josh Goot
SHOP: 1048-1050 High St Armadale
One of my fave stores on High St has to be Josh Goot. Not only is the interiors and fit out of this store utterly incredible (I could take pictures in here all day), but the clean crisp set out of all the garments is exactly what you need when shopping and finding something to wear (my wardrobe should probably take note!).
I'm currently obsessing over all the current season black/white scribble pieces.
2. Thurley
SHOP: 1080 High St Armadale
You know how much I love my Thurley - especially for events. And guess what? I found my gorgeous Oaks Day dress now in store. It seriously is such a stunning piece, and if you've been eyeing it off of my insta, definitley take a look in person. I think you'll love it more if that's even possible? Speaking of loving, I'm completely in love with the new window display, featuring some of Thurley's amazing all white pieces - perfect for relaxed racing.
3. Aje
SHOP: 1045 High St Armadale
The Aje store is a dangerous one. Once again I absolutely love the interiors in all of the Aje boutiques - they're just so pretty. Aje is a label I wear a lot, for both events and everyday - each piece is so stunning in it's self and the fabrics are some of my fave - super flow-y but still nicely weighted. One of my fave Aje pieces are their embellished leggings, I love dressing them down with simple converse sneakers for that street edge.
4. The Lovebird
EAT: 1102 High St Armadale
Finally, something to eat and drink! I love this cute little hangout just next to Skin and Threads for a low key brunch or quick coffee. If you're on the street and looking for a lovely spot, this is it!

I'd love to know where your fave stores are on High St, and what stores you'd like to see open!

Shooting track and field events is how I started in sports photography. Meets are like a multi ring circus ... something going on everywhere you look.
I love shooting soccer. I learned to love the sport watching my kids play and by refereeing the game for 12 years.
I provide photos to Sonoma West Publishers. As a perk, I can get day credentials to professional events in the Bay Area. I took advantage and photographed a game at AT&T Park between the Giants and the Athletics. So much fun. You will also see some little league photos. Pay attention and you will see a kid pitching who has grown ...
The atmosphere at XC meets is so positive (similar to Track & Field). The kids are supportive of each other and celebrate each other's successes. Don't be fooled ... the competition is fierce.
I know next to nothing about wrestling. However, I've come to be a fan of the Healdsburg High program and their coach. My ignorance has not stopped me from admiring these athletes. It is intense.
The hitting is intense. While I played in high school and enjoy watching ... glad my sons didn't play.
Shooting in high school gyms can be challenging ... low light ... strange hues ...
While I provide sports photos for free, I am available to shoot for hire. I've photographed some great events. The internment of WWII vet John Sani whose remains were found in 2014 was one of the most rewarding.
I enjoy capturing candid portraits. These are some of my favorites. Each one makes me smile or reminds me of special times.

UNDER Simon Halsey's long-standing directorship, the City of Birmingham Chorus has become what its publicity boldly claims: "One of the finest of its kind." Certainly, anyone who heard the last movement of Beethoven's Choral Symphony in the Bridgewater Hall would be unlikely to demur.
But sung as it was, with tremendous vigour and solidity of tone, yet always with something in reserve for the moments of truth, it deserved to crown a much finer interpretation than Thomas Dausgaard's.
The young Dane has been garnering glowing opinions for some years, and he may well soon have the world's higher-ranking orchestras knocking at his agent's door - not without justification, either, because he is energetic, thoroughly musical and evidently very much his own man. But, as a Beethoven interpreter, he has a long way to go.
With the BBC Philharmonic, he took the archetypal young-man-in-a-hurry approach, losing no opportunity for physical excitement and avoiding Germanic profundity like the plague. There was Berliozian fire and exhilaration in abundance, but of philosophical understanding little or no sign.
Superficially invigorating though Dausgaard's storm-and-stress view of the first movement was, he did not take all the players with him - perhaps they were not all as happy to trample over the music's opportunities for expressive inwardness.
And he then had nowhere to go in the Scherzo except to pump the orchestra for more of the same, by now utterly predictable, energy. Taken at a uniform jog-trot, hardly any of the prayerful revelations in the slow movement registered, and the quite properly frantic passages in the Finale failed to stand in relief, largely because Dausgaard had so often foregrounded this quality in the first two movements.
With Alistair Miles's bass declamations, there was the promise of a deeper exploration of the work. But Dausgaard still had the bit between his teeth. When Anthony Rolfe Johnson dug his heels in, he only succeeded in making his tenor line sound woefully distressed. Soprano Janice Watson and mezzo Ann Taylor were more prepared to go with the flow, but it took the chorus to remind us of the true glory of Beethoven's vision.
Dausgaard's Beethoven, I have to report, went down well in a packed Bridgewater Hall. And he certainly deserved plaudits for his conducting of Messiaen's L'Ascension before the interval, as did the BBC Philharmonic for maximising the communicative immediacy of this ecstatic score while minimising its potential embarrassments.

Concerning the deceptively difficult
It's not as easy it seems.
It's not as easy as it looks.
It's harder than it looks.
It's harder than you think.
Easier said than done.
There's more to it than meet the eye.
It's surprisingly difficult.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's a real challenge.

Do you still have a VCR? Would you like to use it?
Nobody can blame you. As the VHS tape gave way to the DVD, the Blu-Ray and streaming, thousands and thousands of movies never made the jump to the latter formats or services. Genre films were especially hard hit -- thrillers, horror, science-fiction and the like.
A recent NPR story noted that archivists at the XFR Collective are working to keep VHS tapes alive. (Like, literally alive and working.)
Check out the excellent documentary "Rewind This!" for the full story of VHS collectors and their sacred mission to preserve the past.
Here are a few places to still find VHS tapes in Austin:
Vulcan Video: Long considered one of Austin's best video stores, Vulcan has VHS stuff for days and a devout staff. There are two locations: Vulcan South ( 4411 Russell Dr.; 512-326-2629) and Vulcan North (100 #A North Loop; 512-478-5325).
I Luv Video: Also long considered one of Austin's best video stores (yes, Austin is pretty lucky in this regard), I Luv Video is the size of a planet (4803 Airport Blvd.; 512-450-1966)
RELATED: Is the future of Vulcan South in doubt?
Both Vulcan and I Luv Video have tapes for sale. Also check out:
End of an Ear: The South Austin record store, once a staple of South First commerce and record buyin' is in a new location. As the owners are devout film nerds and VHS heads, they have a wall of VHS tape for sales (4304 Clawson Rd.; 512-462-6008)
Half Price Books: The selection is not as good as it once was, mostly because the number of tapes in circulation has fallen radically in the past 20 years, but most stores still have a small section. (various locations)
All sorts of thrift stores, Goodwill stores and pawn shops. Because you absolutely never know what you might find

text: 新闻和活动 活动 新闻 简讯 视频库 Print this page Newsletter November 2017- New lines of business coming to fruition EDITORIAL Dear Valued Investors, The Board of Investment is on the threshold of 2018. We have some very encouraging news regarding the recognition of BOI's efforts and the institution's rising prominence as a leading investment promotion agency in the region. First, the Investment Commission of the United Nations in Geneva rewarded the Board of Investment with the United Nations Awards for Promoting Investment in the SDGs 2017 for the Medine Group's Uniciti project. This award recognises BOI's commitment in the adoption of best practices and for facilitating investments that are compatible with the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Furthermore, during the World Association of Investment Promotion Agencies (WAIPA) elections that took place during its General Assembly held on 27th November 2017, BOI was elected to form part of WAIPA's Steering Committee for the Regional Directorship for Sub-Saharan Africa. This election will give BOI the opportunity to play a leading role globally and ensure that Mauritius benefits fully from the wide range of support and assistance that WAIPA provides. These recognitions at the international level vindicate the commitment and efforts deployed by BOI over the years to boost the transition of Mauritius towards a modern and services-driven economy. Indeed, BOI has been instrumental in fuelling the growth of the ICT sector, financial services as well as light manufacturing industry unflinchingly. These endeavours will remain the focus of attention, as the organisation constantly thrives to further diversify our economy. A roadmap is presently being elaborated to enable the emergence of the Marine Biotechnology sector following a workshop that was organised in collaboration with the US Embassy. Investment promotion missions were also conducted in South Africa and Russia to expand our markets beyond the traditional perimeter. This edition of the newsletter provides updates on our pursuit of the Africa Strategy with a recent workshop organised on the Madagascar SEZ. We are also pleased to share the eye-opening interview of one of our new Regulatory Sandbox Licensees. I wish you a pleasant read. Ken Poonoosamy Managing Director Read the complete newsletter here.
