We hope you can join us for this exciting two day event in the heart of the city of London.

KEYNOTE PANEL: Women in pensions
In the current climate diversity has never been more important and although diversity on Trustee boards and investment committees has been a growing topic of concern over the last few years PBUK 2018 wants to focus on women in pensions. Why pick gender over other types of diversity? Women are a minority in the financial sector across global markets, making them the "universal diversifier." This panel will explore the barriers for women in pensions, encouraging confidence in the women in your industry and what the industry can do to ensure a diverse future.
Margaret Snowdon, Chairman, PASA
KEYNOTE PANEL: Employee Benefits - Let's get personal!
The best employers are now going beyond one-size-fits-all packages offering highly personalised benefits, tailored to the individual needs and situations of their staff. The desire of employers to understand their staff, bolstered by legislative changes have forced firms to be more efficient in handling employee data. Benefits packages need to be constantly flexible to catch up with the changes to work that have occurred in recent decades such as the rise in flexible and remote-working. This panel of experts will discuss the future of employee benefits; how to structure a package to reflect company culture and values, boost morale, attract talent and retain staff.

OPENING KEYNOTE: Shifts in monetary policy
Central banks are beginning the long and winding road towards tighter monetary policy and interest rate normalisation. The big questions for investors are how long will it take central banks to unwind their balance sheets, will there be a smooth reversal, and how would a rapid unwinding impact markets?
Marian Bell, Consultant Economist
Creating a savings culture and empowering your employees
The session will involve a review of key behavioural biases relevant at different stages of the pensions journey, case studies of effective trials to support consumers in making the best decision for themselves and finally, a discussion on the next frontiers for BI & pensions.

KEYNOTE How can employers reduce presenteeism?
New research from Fellowes, based on responses from 4,000 employees and 500 business leaders across Europe, demonstrates that 'presenteeism' is one of the biggest threats to UK workplace productivity. While having staff members who are willing to come into work when they are unwell shows dedication this will not do any good for their health or wellbeing. It also begs a questions about the culture of your company? To tackle this growing problem, employers must start to implement a longer-term, more preventative approach to unhealthy working practices, rather than falling back on tactical 'quick-fixes'.

Project Description
Universities have been using our transcription services since we started TypeOut in 2008. We act as an essential team member to research departments by transcribing either one off tasks or lengthy on-going projects. We offer reliability by using a particular transcription team who have many years of experiencing in transcribing interviews and focus groups. Some projects require us to transcribe with a higher level of detail such as verbatim or discourse analysis. Other projects require very accurate time code so we use F4 software which is compatible with Atlas ti and other analysis systems.
You will find that our services are also very cost effective. There are no minimum contracts because you only pay for the exact time you use our services for.
The whole process is very straight forward. All you have to do is record your interviews or focus groups and upload them to our website. One of our management team will check through audio and email you a quote. Once you have agreed to the quote and registered your invoicing details with us, by filling in a very simple form on our website, we will get started. We will then type up your work and send it back to you in the agreed turnaround time.
Security and confidentiality can be guaranteed; firstly because our team work from UK based offices, therefore none of your files are sent abroad, they all sign and adhere to a confidentiality agreement and our IT systems use 256 bit SSL encryption, which at present is the highest level of online security possible. We are also registered with the Data Protection Act and strictly follow their guidelines.
Why not contact us by sending an email or give us a call to see how we can help you with your transcription requirements?

The four countries signed a declaration Monday pledging to intensify cooperation to better manage the Mekong and reduce risks from floods and drought. But they expressed concern over eight dams China has planned along the river in southwestern Yunnan province, the Hindu newspaper reports. Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva in opening the two-day MRC summit Sunday in Hua Hin warned that the Mekong River "will not survive" without good management. Abhisit said the river was "being threatened by serious problems arising from both the unsustainable use of water and the effects of climate change." "This summit is sending a message that all the countries in the Mekong Region, both its upper and lower parts, are stakeholders, and we all have to take joint responsibility for its long-term sustainability," he said. Abhisit seemed to be making an allusion to the Xiaowan Dam, which China is building on the upper Mekong, its fourth such dam. But Beijing rejected accusations that its hydropower development is harming the river basin. (TerraDaily.com)

1.) Is it safe in Mexico?
Yes!! Sure there has been a lot of bad press lately, and it's a shame that it paints such a bad picture for the rest of Mexico. There are some troubled areas, but the Baja Peninsula is considered the safest area to travel in all of Mexico. We wouldn't choose to spend our winters in this beautiful place if it wasn't!
The town of Loreto is a small laid-back town steeped in local history and culture. It was founded in 1697 and was the site of the first settlement and mission in all of the Californias, back when Mexican territory stretched north to San Francisco. Loreto remained the capital of the Californias for over 150 years. It's now a quiet town with excellent food, a picturesque town center, cobblestone streets, and friendly people. Come join us this winter!
2.) What marine life will I see?
There is an abundance of marine life in the Sea of Cortez, it's considered to be one of the most productive bodies of water in the world. We can almost guarantee dolphin or porpoise sightings on every trip. There is also excellent snorkeling, frequent sea turtle sightings, good bird watching, fun
kayak fishing, and an amazing whale season. This is why Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez the 'World's Aquarium'!
There is excellent bird watching throughout the entire winter. No matter what time of year or what route you choose, no bird watcher will be disappointed. The most common species are: Red-tailed hawk, osprey, great blue and night herons, egrets, brown pelicans, cormorants, gulls, sandpipers, frigate birds, royal terns, blue footed and brown boobies, oyster catchers, grebes, kingfishers, and hummingbirds.
Over the years we have seen whales throughout the entire winter season, but for the best chance of seeing whales coming on a trip from early February to late March is your best bet. The most common whale sightings are: Humpback, Blue, Fin, Minky, Orca, and Greys. You can also plan for an extra day or two and take a trip across the peninsula to the lagoons on the west coast where huge numbers of Grey Whales congregate to mate and birth their calves.
3.) How are Meals and Food organized?
We offer both "Fully Catered" and "Communally Catered" trip options and are happy to provide any custom trip meal options for group bookings.
We choose to run the majority of our trips with our signature and very popular "communally catered" option. This is our preference because it: allows the entire group to feel more a part of the trip and to be involved in all aspects of the adventure, fosters an atmosphere similar to being on a trip with a group of friends instead of a tour, and allows us to offer much more affordable kayak trips.
How it works: Before the trip starts each person in assigned 2-4 meals (depending on trip length and number of participants) to purchase, pack, and prepare for the group. Our guides will be there to assist you throughout the entire experience. The day before the trip starts the whole group meets in Loreto and after the introductions and orientation, we all go shopping together. This way our guides can help you with menu ideas, assessing quantities, reading labels in Spanish, and sourcing special ingredients.
Our guides are excellent cooks, and when not preparing their meals, they make excellent sous chefs and will be there to assist you with any part of the preparation and cooking of your meals. We provide all the cooking equipment and utensils, as well as dishes and cutlery. All you need is a few of your favorite recipes and a sense of adventure!
When booking your trip ask us for our list of meal ideas. Also, Ryan and Hilary, our guides, write the paddling meals articles for Wavelength Magazine, check out their Website to see their previous articles and all of Ryan and Hilary's favorite recipes.
4.) Is kayaking challenging?
No! We get all different ages and skill levels! From the very experienced paddlers who love our style of trip, to beginners who are trying it for the first time; Young families with children, baby-boomers, 30- somethings, and grandparents! We have routes and options to fit any skill level: From 3 day beginner tours, to 12 day advanced expeditions; multi-sport base camping adventures, to deluxe remote Mexican Villa getaways!
5.) How long do we paddle each day?
The distance and time spent on the water will vary depending on your route and the weather conditions.For our kayaking expeditions, we will average 2-4 hours per day.
Most days will consist of the following: Rise with the sun and enjoy breakfast and coffee/tea, after breakfast we'll pack the kayaks and paddle for a few hours in the morning, usually by lunchtime we're at our next campsite, after eating lunch we have the afternoon free to beach-comb, snorkel, hike, or just relax on the beach. Most routes are planned so there there are some lay-over days when we won't break camp and will let the group decide the days activities.
6.) Is it child and family friendly?
Absolutely! We specialize in offering custom trips for families, and with a wide range of routes designed to accommodate families. We have no minimum age, and decide each case depending on the length of the route plan and the interest level of the family. Feel free to contact us, or call toll-free and talk to us in person, to discuss which route would suit your family. We are also happy to set up custom routes or dates to fit your plans.
7.) Can I fish on the trip?
Yes! We fish on most trips, and encourage people who are interested to do the same. Although we cannot guarantee to have fish for a specific meal or day, but it's usually a welcome addition if we do catch some.
If you would like to fish, we can buy a license for you, but you will need to let us know in advance. It's about $30 CAD for a week. We also have a little bit of extra fishing gear we can lend out, but it's on a first come, first serve basis. Ask us for more information if you are interested in fishing on your trip.
8.) Do you have gear that I can rent or borrow?
We provide Two 20 liter dry bags per person, for those who don't have their own. We also have a few extra bits of gear like beach chairs, therm-a-rests, and sleeping bags. However, we don't have enough for a whole group, and you have to ask in advance if you would like one.
We also have tents and snorkeling gear for rent. It's $35 CAD for a tent, and $15 for nice snorkeling gear. Let us know at the time of booking if you would like to rent some gear. We do have some spare shorty wet suits and a few old masks and snorkels that we can lend out. We only have a few of each size, and will lend out whatever we have available on the morning of the trip, in a first come, first serve manor.
9.) Why is Travel Insurance Required?
Travel insurance is mandatory for all of our guests. This is to cover you in the event of a medical emergency or accident. It's true that medical work is less expensive in Mexico, but this also covers the cost of evacuating you from remote locations. If you need a helicopter, or a last minute flight home to have major work done your insurance will cover this. Baja Kayak Adventure Tours Ltd., is not responsible for the cost of medical procedures or remote evacuations.
There are many companies that offer travel insurance. Make sure that yours covers remote evacuations. Some companies in Canada are: BCAA, Blue Cross, or most insurance brokers. You can also purchase it online in both Canada and the USA. But you must purchase it before leaving your country or residence. Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
10.) What about the Zika Virus?
The Zika Virus has been an issue recently in south and central America. It's primarily transmitted by mosquitoes and can cause defects in offspring if the mother contracts the virus while pregnant. Luckily for us, Loreto is in a desert climate there are almost never mosquitoes. The only time we get bugs in this area is if there is standing water. Years when the Baja Peninsula is affected by a hurricane or tropical storm, which would usually happen in August through October, once every few years, then early season tours (October and November) may have a few mosquitoes. Once any standing water has evaporated, then there are no mosquitoes.
The CDC says that wearing long sleeves and pants, and using bug repellent is an effective way to reduce the risk of infection, which is very low in this area.
11.) Can I organize a custom trip?
Yes! We are happy to organize a custom trips for families, paddling clubs, schools, and groups of friends. We require a minimum group size of 4 to organize a custom trip. We also offer group discounts for groups of 6 or more.
We can set up a trip to fit whatever interest and experience level your group has. We can offer any combination of trip styles and routes, and have a lot of special add-ons like: boat support, a day scuba diving or sports fishing, mountain biking, hikes, whale watching, horse or mule riding, and much more! Ask us for more information about setting up a custom trip.
All trips start and finish in Loreto, a small coastal community 950 kilometers south of the US border on the Sea of Cortez. Once the capital of the Spanish-ruled state of California, it is the oldest settlement in Baja and is now a quiet, pleasant town.
Both WestJet and Alaska Airline fly right into the town of Loreto. WestJet is the best option for our Canadian customers. They fly direct Calgary – Loreto twice a week
(Wednesdays and Saturdays) from November to April. Plus the prices are in Canadian Dollars! Alaska Airline flies to Loreto from Los Angles, so unless you are from southern California, this usually involves a change of plains in LA. This is also a great option, as they fly at least 5 days a week, and more during high season.
FLIGHTS TO LORETO FILL UP VERY FAST – SO BOOK RIGHT AWAY. Flying to La Paz and busing the 5 hours north to Loreto is nother option, but often costs the same and requires a full day, when you add the 5 hour bus ride to Loreto. But many customers choose this, so they can spend a few days in the lovely city of La Paz.
Some paddlers take advantage of cheap charters into San Jose del Cabo at the southern tip of the Baja peninsula (then take an 8 hour bus ride to Loreto), others drive or bus the 16 hours from the US border or choose to drive all the way down. This can ben a good option is you a looking for a longer trip in your camper or RV. If you're driving, we recommend getting Mexican auto insurance ahead of time, we recommend purchasing this through Adventure Mexican Insurance.
Paddlers need to arrive the day before the tour starts, e.g., for those on the Dec 4-10th trip, you must arrive by the morning of the 3rd, and could fly out the 11th. We head out early the first morning. We aim to be back in Loreto by lunch on the final day, but due to the nature of wilderness travel cannot guarantee that you'll be able to catch a flight the same day. Flying at least one day after is much more relaxing.
A visa is not necessary for Canadians and Americans, though a Mexican Tourist Card is (the airline will give you one on the flight, and you should hold on to it for when you leave). Don't forget your passport, it is now a requirement for everyone. It's not usually necessary to bring US Dollars, and almost useless to bring Canadian Dollars. There are a number of bank machines in Loreto, these ATMs will give you pesos which is the most useful currency to work with when you are in Loreto. Locals appreciate your use of Mexican currency. And don't forget, you are required to carry travel medical insurance.

Fragrance Testing -Performance in A Variety Of Uses- Note: Our testing notes should never take the place of your own personal testing. Always test fragrance in all programs. We usually do not take accountability for our test results differing from your test results. Natures Garden isn't in charge of any finished products made with our raw ingredients. Cold process soap testing was done by our staff using strict controls. Stick blenders will help incorporate back aroma into the soap in the event that it rices during the blending process. Soaping at room temperature can help to reduce the chance of hint that is gifted. Soap may be discolored by scents including vanilla fixings. Vanilla White Shade stabilizer may help prevent discoloration due to vanilla. Nonetheless, there are far more than 40 ingredients used in aroma making that could contribute to discoloration of products.


text: I love in a town in England where I don't think businesses could afford services that cost $1000 + a month so is it possible for me to close deals on the phone for businesses in larger towns and cities such as London? also, almost all businesses only have 1 -3 mostly positive ratings which aren't suitable for my potential ORM service. or what else can I do?

British supermodel Cara Delevingne and singer St. Vincent have fuelled reports of a romance after reportedly kissing and dancing together at a show in New York City.
The runway beauty first sparked rumours she was more than just friends with St. Vincent, real name Annie Clark, at the BRIT Awards in London last week (25Feb15) when she was caught on camera caressing the singer's back as they sat at a table together at the O2 Arena.
They were later photographed attending an awards afterparty, where they allegedly locked lips, and now the reported new couple has continued its rumoured relationship in the Big Apple.
Delevingne and St. Vincent met up with a group of pals, including actress Zoe Kravitz, on Sunday (01Mar15) and headed to the Queen of the Night show at the Paramount Hotel, where an onlooker claims they put on a number of public displays of affection.
The source tells the New York Post, "Cara and Annie snuck off to the bathroom during dinner and slow-danced at the end of the show. At one point they shared a chair and were hugging and kissing."
Representatives for the two stars have yet to comment on the relationship rumours.
Delevingne has previously been linked to One Direction star Harry Styles and Unbroken actor Jack O'Connell, while she split from actress Michelle Rodriguez last May (14) after a brief romance.
Meanwhile, St. Vincent's exes reportedly include Sleater-Kinney member and Portlandia star, Carrie Brownstein.

AAA Four Diamond Hotel South of Vegas Strip
Fewer than 10 miles south of the Las Vegas Strip, the Mediterranean-inspired Green Valley Ranch- Las Vegas cuts an imposing figure, with Spanish-style architecture, tiled roofs, and a recessed driveway lined with towering palms. You don't have to worry about transportation to the city's main corridor, thanks to a complimentary shuttle that runs back and forth from the strip four times a day. But there's a lot to do right here—the sprawling Green Valley Ranch- Las Vegas encompasses restaurants, pools, a casino, and a movie theater.
In the upscale casino, exposed stone columns support towering arches and a vaulted ceiling. Gamers have the run of the place, which offers 2,200 slot and video-poker games, a poker room, race and sports book areas, and more than 55 table games such as blackjack, craps, and roulette. Spend your winnings at one of eight onsite restaurants, including Hank's Fine Steaks & Martinis, known for its selection of aged meats, and Terra Verde, a cozy Italian eatery with house-made pasta dishes and an extensive wine list. Getaway holders can use their resort credit at the onsite spa for services such as massages, facials, and mani-pedis.
Green Valley Ranch- Las Vegas's outdoor recreation area stretches across more than 8 acres outfitted with manicured lawns, private cabanas, and infinity-edge dipping pools. Head to the Pond, the resort's private pool and lounge, to see and be seen during pool-party season. Come nightfall, you can catch a live band at Ovation or slip into Drop Bar for a nightcap.
Greater Las Vegas: Shops and Restaurants Off the Strip
The town of Henderson is conveniently close to Las Vegas, but it's also far enough to be an escape from the bustle of the strip. Next to Green Valley Ranch- Las Vegas sits The District, a pedestrian-friendly promenade lined with boutiques and restaurants. On Friday and Saturday nights from May through October, enjoy live music as you stroll the plaza.
To head to the Strip, hop onto the resort's free shuttle, which drops riders off at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. If you're tired of gambling, check out one of the long-running shows, such as Cirque du Soleil's Love, an acrobatic and visually stunning homage to the Beatles.

Taylor Swift: When She Plans To Start Kissing Guys Again
Taylor's music career is practically built on her failed relationships, so it's rather strange that she hasn't dated anyone in nearly two years. Her dry spell won't last too much longer, though, because HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned when T-Swizzle plans on locking lips with her next hunky suitor!
Taylor Swift recently admitted she hasn't had a "lousy" boyfriend in the last year and a half. To be frank, she hasn't had any boyfriends in the last year and a half, but HollywoodLife.com has EXCLUSIVELY learned when the "Shake It Off" singer plans on dipping her toes back in the dating pool.
Taylor Swift On Kissing: When Will She Lock Lips With Guys Again?
"For the rest of the year, Taylor will just work on promoting her new album. She wants to ride on the success of all her hard work through New Year's. And she will not be kissing anyone when the ball drops, unless it's Ryan Seacrest's cheek because she doesn't want to worry about boyfriends until next year, at the earliest," a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.
As HollywoodLife.com previously reported, Taylor will headline Ryan Seacrest's New Year's Rockin' Eve on Dec. 31 live from Times Square.
Personally, we don't think kissing Ryan Seacrest is such a bad alternative. (He's getting hotter with age.)
Anyway, Taylor has been pretty adamant about having no interest in dating, so we're not too shocked to hear that she won't be kissing a romantic partner before the ball drops later this year.
And can you really blame her? Taylor said she's had some pretty "lousy" boyfriends during an appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman on Oct. 28.
Taylor Swift Disses Harry Styles — 'The Late Show With David Letterman' Interview
Taylor told David Letterman that she's choosing to stay single right now, and hasn't "had any lousy boyfriends in the last year and a half." Poor, Harry Styles. Since he was her last boyfriend, we assume he's the "lousy" one she's referring to.
Better luck next time, Taylor!
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? When should Taylor start kissing guys again? Vote in our poll and tell us how you feel!

Are you one of the 80% of Americans who suffer from Low Back Pain (LBP)?
Having experienced LBP, I understand the things that can cause strain. As a Medical Exercise Specialist(MES), I teach my clients how to reduce their episodes of LBP and become more mindful of their spine.
According to the American Physical Therapy Association, most LBP is caused by overuse, strain, or injury but if the pain lasts more than a few days or gets worse, it may be advisable to make an appointment with your health care provider.
Our spine consists of 29 vertebrae that protect our spinal cord and gives us stabiltiy and mobility. The 7 cervical vertabrae have tremendous mobility. The 12 thoracic vertebrae's primary movement is the rotation. The 5 lumbar vertebrae bear most of our weight, and the 5 sacral vertebrae are fused and at the base of the spine. The coccyx is know as the tail bone. Between each vertebral body is a disk which offers the spine shock absorption and protection. At birth, 80% of the disc was composed of water but dehydrates as we age. One the end of each vertebral body is an end plate that is made of cartilage. When an end plate wears out or is damaged, the vertebrae become exposed to degenerative changes.
Our ligaments and tendons hold the spine together while our muscles enable movement. It is indeed a wonderful mechanism!
The following are four things you can do to protect your back from pain, strain or injury.
ONE: Learn what Neutral spine means and lie, sit and stand with a neutral spine.
Neutral spine is the position between an arched back and a flexed posture. Lie down with your knees bent. Notice the curve of your lower back. Press your belly button in towards your spine. You are now in a fIexed posture. Lift your belly toward the ceiling and feel the arch in your back. You are now in an extended posture. Do this several times to feel the extremes between the two positions. Now, relax in a comfortable position between these two postures. This posture is your neutral spine. This exercise is also great to create awareness and mobility in your spine.
Try this while sitting and standing. At this moment I am checking my neutral spine since I've been sitting for 54 minutes which brings me to our next point.
TWO: Identify and Avoid repetitive movements such as prolonged periods of sitting.
Compression forces while sitting are 40% greater than when we stand upright. If you sit a lot and are experiencing low back strain, then take several stand breaks throughout the day. Determine your sitting tolerance. Sitting tolerance is the amount of time you can sit without feeling decrepit when you stand up. I rarely sit for longer than an hour. I set a timer to remind myself to take a break. If I am in an airplane seat for over an hour, I remind myself to find and sit with a neutral spine.
Some other forms of repetitive movements might be gardening, shopping, leaning to one side while driving or a repetitive sport. I used to have a job that required a lot of desk work. I was twisting and straining my back to retrieve files in my right-side drawer which caused strain on my left lower back. I switched my files to the drawer on my left which eliminated the strain. Later, when I felt the strain on the other side, I switched them again.
THREE: Use proper lifting and carrying techniques.
Most of us likely know the benefits of lifting with our thighs and should be keen on it. Why don't we do it? I was giving this demonstration in a class using a live model. I gave her the instructions of proper lifting, and she defaulted to back-strain-lift technique. I believe we use improper lifting posture because our thigh muscles are weak. I teach and give all my clients routine squatting exercises. Why? It protects our back! A proper lift requires that we squat, reach for the object bringing it as close to our torso as possible, and use our legs to stand back up.
While carrying objects, especially for extended periods such as traveling, try to distribute the weight load evenly.
FOUR: Exercise to increase circulation and nutrients to your spine.
Our spinal discs need hydration and the best way to hydrate the spine is exercise. Start where you are and build up your exercise tolerance. Increase by 10% per week. Walking is great. For less impact try swimming or a recumbent bike.
These tips practiced consistently will reduce your incidence of low back pain. By taking care of your spine in this way, you will give it the care and nourishment that it needs to take care of you. Best of health!

It took a bit to get used to the new Mass Effect and all that came with it, but five plus hours in and Mass Effect: Andromeda has its claws embedded.
Starting a new game has its ups and downs. New mechanics and systems take a little getting used to, even in brilliantly developed games. For Mass Effect, this is the beginning of a new era. New characters are introduced, new worlds, in this case a whole new galaxy. Straying from the traditional snap-cover based shooting mechanics, Andromeda seeks to make combat, and gameplay overall, a more fluid, visceral experience. I won't lie, I had my struggles. After trudging through the first engagements with the grace of a lanky teenager who hadn't quite mastered the use of their own limbs, it is finally clicking with me. A few hours of multiplayer with my friends later, I understand the new engine and its intricacies a bit more, and in a game as big as Andromeda, a little goes a long way.
Combat is just as pulse pounding as previous installments, without a doubt. But the lack of snap cover made the transition a bit harrowing. The first hour of play I died about as much as college girls (or me, if I'm honest) visit Starbucks. And while I repeatedly tried to do what I did years ago, Andromeda was liberal in serving size of punishment. Andromeda is unforgiving, both as a game and a galaxy. The enemies are smart. The Kett, the game's new primary antagonists, are unrelenting. Grunts are accurate, elites are smart, and shielded tanks walk right at you. Perhaps a testament to their implementation of a new cover system, hunkering down and fighting off waves of enemies just will not cut it.
As I said, I have only put in about six hours yet, but as soon as the scale and purpose of Andromeda made itself known, I was hooked. World exploration is interesting enough to make me drive away from my objectives hoping to discover new locations and missions. But it was calling in the first settlement that really locked it in. Mass Effect: Andromeda is about finding a new home for the human race. Establishing that first settlement, and the steps that led up to getting there, restored a feeling of wonder that I hadn't felt in Mass Effect since the first installment.

Superintendent Grayling Tobias of the Hazelwood School District in St. Louis County, Mo., started school as planned in August, despite the recent death of an unarmed 18-year-old who was shot multiple times in a confrontation with police in Ferguson, Mo.
Tobias arranged for extra police patrols at all buildings, and asked principals, social workers and counselors to be visible for students who need to talk or express their feelings.
Frank DeAngelis, principal of Columbine High School in Colorado, retired in June. He had been the principal since 1996. After the shooting of April 1999, he promised the then-ninth grade class he would not leave until they graduated. In 2012, he graduated students who were in kindergarten at the time of the shooting.
Beth Schiavino-Narvaez, a deputy superintendent in Montgomery County Schools in Maryland, was named superintendent of Hartford Public Schools in Connecticut in April. She has worked in Montgomery County since 2011, where she oversees the district's 202 schools and supervises principals. She will start the job in Hartford on July 1.
In this follow-up to her best-selling book "The Book Whisperer," author and reading expert Donalyn Miller focuses on how to instill lifelong reading habits in students. Based in part on survey responses from adult and student readers, this book offers strategies on how to develop and encourage the key habits that lead to a lifelong love of reading. Also included are lesson plans and recommended book lists for students.
As secondary school principals guide their schools and teachers through a myriad of changes, it's becoming necessary for these leaders to reinvent themselves. No longer can principals succeed by operating only as a manager—the evolving school environment requires a more extensive approach.
To develop the skills necessary to be effective in the evolving environment of today's schools, principals have several places to turn. Here are some ideas:
A principal's job is only getting harder, according to the latest MetLife Survey of the American Teacher. A whopping 75 percent of principals feel the job has become too complex, and job satisfaction rates decreased nine percentage points in less than five years, to just 59 percent. And seven in 10 principals say their job responsibilities are very different from what they were five years ago.
The American Association of School Administrators is doing its part to improve leadership development. Between January and May, AASA consultants are providing professional development for principals and assistant principals in the Prince George's County (Md.) Public Schools.
"People are thirsty for an opportunity to learn everything that belongs to their jobs, from budget and finances to curriculum and instruction to school operations," says AASA Director of Leadership Development MaryAnn Jobe.
Most principals today are hard pressed to find time for the multitasking they are expected to do, from overseeing the daily operation of their schools and interacting with parents to evaluating teachers and providing them with professional development to do their jobs at a high level.

Hello Sharon;
Joy - father (William Frank Armour) and my grandfather (Frederick Armour) were brothers as well as James Armour
and Edward Armour (I have his death certificate).
From what I understand, Joy father was like my Uncle James surrogate father my Grandfather d. 1949. As for Fannie, I know
there is a connection but have not put the exact link together. I know my Great Grandfather name is listed on her
mother (Ruth) and father (John Armour) marriage certificate.
I have checked Connecticut before and found a James
Armour as a taxi cab driver. Sorry no pictures of
my great grandfather as of this writing or my
grandfather but I think I will have one soon. I'm
working on taking a trip to New Jersey Archives to
review files but balancing the cost.

I haven't been recapping this season of The Bachelor and honestly, that's a shame – there's been more than a little bizarre sh*t going down with Iowa farmer Chris Soules. No joke, I actually sort of feel bad for him – the producers dipped their hands real deep into the crazy bucket for this round of casting. One of my favorite crazies this season is Jade. Now, if you haven't watched last night's episode, you're probably like, "Crazy? Jade? But she's so timid and shy and quiet!" Well, that's what Chris thought, too! Turns out, she's more of a "wild mustang" – hey, those are her brother's words, not mine.
Jade spent the last couple of episodes squirming, trying to tell Chris a secret. The secret: not so long ago, Jade moved to LA to start her modeling career and ended up doing some nude photos and videos for Playboy. Now, let me get this out of the way: posing for Playboy does not make Jade a bad person. It does not make her a slut. Hell, even if Jade had done hardcore pornography, it would not make her a slut. Jade would not be a slut even if she was an actual prostitute, because what a woman does with her body is her business. I am not making a judgement call about Jade's choice to post nude. Jade can do whatever the hell Jade wants, you know? But waiting until her hometown date and then pulling out her laptop for Chris – literally showing him her foray into nude modeling right there on the couch – I mean, who does that? That was super weird.
Of course I think she should have told him – if you're seriously considering marrying someone, you should open up about big, life-changing events. You should also probably let your future husband know that all his friends can Google your boobs. Just, you know, as a courtesy. To his credit, Chris didn't seem to be too judgey about the whole thing, although he did admit that Arlington, Iowa is not the most progressive town and she'd probably face some problems there. But really? I don't think he cared so much about the photos – I think he cared about how, all of a sudden, Jade was a completely different person.
Chris wrote about meeting her family in his blog:
Talking to her family, I realized very quickly that I didn't really know the real Jade. They kept calling her a "free spirit," and her brother even called her a "wild mustang." I've said before that I want some edge in my future wife. I love to unleash and let go and have fun. But that was basically the opposite of the Jade I'd seen up until that point. The Jade I knew was quiet, shy, almost meek. I was intrigued by what her family was saying, but almost disturbed by the fact that the Jade I knew was so different from what they were describing.
If you've been following this season, you can't really blame Chris for being shocked. Jade has spent most of her time playing a shy, small-town girl, practically ducking her head in embarrassment when Chris looked at her too hard. She's definitely not the contestant I'd peg as a nude model (*cough*Jillian*cough*). It's no wonder Chris was surprised. He goes on:
Later that night, I could have never anticipated what Jade told me. When she started sharing that she had something to tell me, my mind immediately went to the worst. I was almost relieved when she revealed that she'd done some nude modeling. When she offered to show me the photos, I really didn't know what to say. A big part of me did not want to see that, but knowing that it was important to her for me to see it with her, I reluctantly obliged; it was extremely uncomfortable, though.
You can watch the whole awkward exchange below:
Naturally, Jade was sent home last night. Was it because of the nude photos? Well, I'd say yes and no. I am going to give Chris the benefit of the doubt here and say that he sent Jade home because he didn't really know Jade – the Jade he was falling for was not this free spirited, do-whatever-I-want, no regrets kind of girl – and after weeks of thinking one thing about someone, it's hard to re-calibrate your mind. The truth is, I think Chris could've fallen for the "wild mustang" Jade – despite his small-town vibe, he really doesn't strike me as super conservative. Maybe it couldn't happen on The Bachelor, because this show is all about slut shaming, but perhaps in real life they could've been together. If Jade had been herself from the start.
Chris told her, as he walked her to the limo, that his decision had nothing to do with the photos. Is that true? Maybe. As for Jade, she believes him. She told Good Morning America, "We had that conversation, and I felt like he was being honest with me, and when I didn't get the rose he sat down with me and made it very clear that wasn't the reason I went home, so I'd like to believe it."
What do you think – did Chris judge Jade for her Playboy modeling, or was it just that he didn't know the real Jade?

Easter Message from the Pastor's Desk…
Dear Friends
He is not here; he has risen! Easter Sunday came and went, but the hope of Easter didn't. For as the song states
"Ev'ry morning is Easter morning
from now on!
Ev'ry day's resurrection day,
the past is over and gone!
And I want for us all to remember that truth. For what happened on Easter morning changed the course of human destiny forever. It brought to completion the plan of God that was envisioned before there was the first "Let there be" command. The Bible tells us that from before the foundation of the world, God already knew that the beloved he would create this world to live in, would fall away from God. That knowing this, God had put into place plans to restore his beloved back to him before the first 'Let there be'. Go ahead, read it up, check it out for yourself. One of the many scriptures on this subject is to be found in Ephesians 1:4. "For God chose us in Christ before the creation of the world, to be holy and blameless in his sight". And it was all accomplished through the events leading up to the cross, on the cross, and with the blazing announcement of Easter, 'He is not here; He has Risen!".
So, say good bye to the past, it's a new day for you. Say goodbye to past failures, today marks a new beginning. Christ isn't only in the business of resurrecting physical bodies, and our dead spirits but in restoring qualitative life, relevance, fulfillment and purpose. "I come to give you life, and have it to the full" John 10:10. Yes, go ahead, make a list of all the worries, all the failures that haunt you at nights, and then bury it, or shred it, or burn it! The past is over and gone, and having unload it just follow after Jesus, yes follow him, take the step to trust him with your whole life, not just your salvation.
And if you haven't said yes to his gift of salvation, it's time to change all of that. "I am the way, the truth and the life", Jesus says, "no one comes to God except through me". John 14:6. And his invitation is to come as you are. Weary and heavy burdened with living? Listen to this offer from him "Come unto me all who are weary and heavy burden and I will give you rest". Matt 11:28. And how do you come to him? "If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9. Can it get any better than that, YES, it gets better. Salvation is FREE. The transaction is IMMEDIATE. There is NO PROBATIONARY period. And it gets better!! It is PERMANENT!!!! Nobody and nothing can take away what God has given you. Your salvation is shielded by the very power of God through your putting your trust in Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:4. And how do I find that kind of faith to believe you ask? Simply ask God for the faith. Only God can give you believing faith, so ask him in all sincerity. One of God's many promise is that "if you seek me with all your heart you will find me", Jeremiah 29:13.
So, say yes to Christ's Lordship, yes to his gift of salvation, hand your life over to him (you certainly aren't doing a good job of handling it). Then, follow Christ around. Follow him in his word, do as he says, live as he says, love as he says, keep your eyes fixed on him, and "every little ting" as Bob Marley sings, "gonna be alright". Sounds simplistic? I guess it does to some of you. But your complicated life and understanding certainly isn't working, trust the word of God. The way of Christ is the way not only to eternal life but to a peaceful, abundant life here on earth. You see in Christ, you get the whole deal, why gamble on other things for which you will be a certain loser? Come home to God.
In His Love,
Pastor Narcisse (Cherie) Philips

Fall (September through November) is a good time to beat the crowds, and it can be an especially beautiful time to see Santa Cruz. The area often sees some of its sunniest days during what we call our "Secret Summer," which generally lasts from September through October.
Santa Cruz offers a wide variety of cuisines for every palate and is well known for it's vegetarian and vegan offerings. Seafood is another specialty, with many restaurants offering fresh, locally caught specials each day.
Santa Cruz is also home to a bevy of flourishing and unique wineries - many of which are family-owned and operated and offer a unique view of the wine-making process.
Though not mandatory by any means, tipping servers (waiters, waitresses, and bartenders) is widely practiced in the U.S. Servers rely on tips to meet a livable wage and unless you order and pay at the counter, tipping is – for the most part - expected. Some restaurants often include a 15% to 18% service charge for parties of six or more, which takes the place of a tip. As a general rule, it is common to tip 18% to 20% if the service is exceptional. Should a server remind you that "the tip is not included", it may be because he or she recognizes you as a visitor to the U.S., and may be trying to be helpful.
Santa Cruz County is home to some of the most incredible marine wildlife you will ever see. It is part of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and thus is protected by U.S. Federal law. Whale watching is best done by taking a Whale Watching tour. The tour operators are experienced and knowledgeble - not only do you get the ultimate viewing experience, but you are respecting the animals as well.
Viewing the Monarch Butterflies during their migration is another experience you won't soon forget.
Santa Cruz is home to some of the most amazing beaches and coastal areas in California. To find out the best beaches to fit your style-from family-friendly crescents to surfers' hot spot-check click here or pay a visit to our Visitors Center conveniently located near our downtown area.
Lifeguards do patrol some beaches; look for trademark viewing towers and note any cautionary signs or flags.
When calling from one area code to another, dial 1, followed by the area code and the seven-digit telephone number.
Smoking is prohibited in most public places in Santa Cruz County, including the Santa Cruz Wharf, all beaches, parks and Pacific Avenue (downtown).

Ants are brilliant and mysterious animals, and even top biologists like E. O. Wilson are still amazed and perplexed by some of their behavior. Ant colonies often behave as one unit, even though they're made of thousands of individual creatures. Each ant serves a particular purpose, and although most are expendable as individuals, together they form one of the most elegantly organized teams of animals in the natural world.

World Cup 2014: 10 things we have learned from the festival of football in Brazil
- Just two games left to play of 64 at the World Cup
- Germany play Argentina in the final at the Maracana on Sunday
- Brazil play Holland in the third place play-off on Saturday
- Players will go back to their clubs ahead of 2014-15 season next week
As the World Cup final line-up is confirmed with Germany once again facing Argentina on the ultimate stage and after five weeks of breathtaking action, Sportsmail's ROB DRAPER looks back over what we have seen at Brazil 2014 to determine what we have learned from the greatest football show on Earth.
1) Brazil have long since ceased to be the custodians of the beautiful game
We didn't need the humiliation of the semi final to demonstrate that, though that result will forever be cited as the point at which Brazil lost its moral authority. The sterility of the opening games and the quarter-final against Colombia, when they set out to kick a team off the pitch, did as much damage. The last Brazil team that dazzled was in 2002, with Rivaldo, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. Ironically it too was managed by Luiz Felipe Scolari. But, given a poorer generation of players, his cynicism simply looked brutish. Jogo Bonito has become an awful cliche which only has credibility in the minds of Nike executives who seemed to think that slick marketing and multi-million pound deals are all you need to sustain the 'brand.'
Outclassed: Brazil's Fernandinho hangs his head in shame as Germany score another in their 7-1 semi-final win
2) International football remains the peak of the game
This is sacrilege to the Premier League but the fact that it only assumes its supremacy every two years doesn't make it any less true. Note: it is not that the football is better than club football; it clearly isn't. But witness the receptions Colombia, Algeria and Costa Rica have received. Consider the fact that if Argentina win the World Cup, it will surpass anything Leo Messi has done for Barcelona. Only national teams have the power to evoke that kind of universal response from people. Clubs should not feel threatened by that. They're the lifeblood of the game once the carnival crowds depart. But the ultimate power and the glory still rests with those who achieve great things for their country.
3) Passion alone does not win you football matches
The debate between the supremacy of passion or cerebral tactics as a means to win football matches will rumble on. Essentially whichever side you're on is a projection of your personality. Without passion, you don't get Luis Suarez's performance against England. Without tactical know-how, you don't get Costa Rica's march through the tournament or Holland coming within a couple of penalty kicks to the final. There is a balance to be struck and most obviously Brazil got it painfully wrong when they opted to embrace the fervour of a nation and ended up overdosing on emotion, consumed by the Neymar frenzy. Passion overload brings witless football and Brazil's performance was a useful reminder.
Inspired: Luis Suarez returned from injury to produce an outstanding performance against England
4) Attacking football is here to stay
So Argentina and Holland did their best to buck the trend in last night's semi-final. But the move towards positive football, initiated by Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund in Europe, has been given added impetus here by the most exciting South American teams in Chile and Colombia. Counter attack can still work - Carlo Ancelotti delivered a masterclass against Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-final - but we live in an era where an awful lot of coaches choose to seize the initiative. And that just wasn't the case ten years ago.
5) England players are still over-rated
England may not be quite as bad as their results here suggest. But even in this period of self-flagellation about how awful English football is, as a nation we still default into assuming that players that have done well for big clubs in the Premier League will be up to World Cup standard. One former leading European coach noted of the England team here: 'When it comes down to it, the first touch of most of their players is still short of the other top teams.' That, and a lack of tactical nous and intelligence, ultimately holds back English players and until they are bothered enough about it to think about how they might improve, not much will change.
Early exit: England's Glen Johnson (left) and Jordan Henderson look dejected as they leave the field
6) FIFA is finished
We didn't really need the World Cup to tell us that. But the convergence of publicity at the FIFA Congress last month simply confirmed that it represents a broken model of governance. It looks like a 20th century institution still expecting that family patronage and old-school rules will get them by. The winds of change will blow away FIFA's current corporate structure. Either it will fall to Sepp Blatter to introduce a whirlwind of reforms - stranger things have happened - after his inevitable re-election next year (which in itself demonstrates how rotten the organisation is); or sponsors will eventually unseat the tired old man of FIFA under pressure from US lawmakers.
7) Brazil shouldn't have hosted the World Cup
Oh, it's been fun, the best tournament in memory, largely because of the hospitality of the people, volunteers and staff and the rich football tradition here. In some ways you want Brazil to host every World Cup. It's just you wouldn't want the Brazilian government and the organising committee to be left in charge. The disparity between poverty on the streets and the billions lavished on stadia, such as the Brasilia National Stadium – currently under an audit committee investigation for suspicious over-pricing issues - and the Amazon Arena in Manaus, which have been built with state subsidies and which now serve no useful purpose is plain wrong. No country without a joined-up plan as to what the World Cup will do for its people should be permitted to host it. Still, Russia and Qatar up next, so don't hold your breath.
Huge expense: Fans watch the Argentina vs Belgium quarter-final at the Brasilia National Stadium
8) Louis van Gaal is a little bit crazy
OK, so Ron Vlaar up for the first penalty is a risk too far. But otherwise the new Manchester United manager had a good tournament. It's not just the Tim Krul substitution for the penalties against Costa Rica, which was a little shallow in all honesty. It's the switching to a back three just before the tournament when many consider the tactic outmoded and Johan Cruyff was telling all and sundry he was a dinosaur; and switching to a back four when it was all going wrong against Australia; and using 3-4-3 against Costa Rica. There are several ways to win a football match. Van Gaal seems determined to use all of them and, if he can, all in one match.
Maverick: Louis van Gaal quits his Holland post at the end of the World Cup to take over at Old Trafford
9) The world is still a big place
Technology and globalisation make it seem small as we're all better informed, Champions League football means there are less surprises than ever. It's easy to think we know it all not just in England but in Europe. But some of the most interesting tacticians out here were Jorge Luis Pinto, Costa Rica's Colombian coach, Jose Perkeman, Colombia's Argentinian coach and Jorge Sampaoli, Chile's Argentina coach. Even within Europe, there are players outside the Champions League. There is a world outside of the Premier League and the Champions League, though with the aggressive marketing of those two competitions, it's easy to forget.
10) The Germans got it right
Yes, it's getting boring. We all know: the blueprint after the failure in Euro 2000, the investment in youth football, the partnership with the Bundesliga clubs. England were abject in Euro 2000 and the FA decided to resolve the problem by spending £5million a year on whoever was the most attractive manager was on the market, while the Premier League nonchalantly kept counting its cash. It's become a cliché but that doesn't make it any less true: the Germans actually attended to the grass roots of their game and, funnily enough, they produce excellent footballers and a national team of which to be proud.

KC: I thought I saw you at the beginning of the movie, do you have a little cameo?
JC: Haha…yeah that's me. My uncle was like…"you should throw up at the party scene…" And I did.
KC: I read that Victor Miller, the original writer of Friday the 13th, worked with you on this film. How much input did he have on the screenplay, direction, and overall influence of the movie?
JC: The movie is an homage flick, so without Friday The 13th, there wouldn't be this flick. He gave a few suggestions on the script. Things that I was closed minded about until he brought them up and then would be like, oh yeah…you're right! He hasn't seen the final product yet. We were talking the other day though and I'm gonna head west to take him out to lunch or something. He's a cool dude.
KC: What were filming conditions like?
JC: Filming was cold and cold. We filmed November 1-13. Only having 1 day off. Doing 17 -19 hour days. Getting used to it was rough but by the last 5 days it was normal. On the East Coast in November…it's freezing. Especially at 4 AM. It was really a life changing experience, though. I learned a lot. It was the first film set I was ever on! It was a lot of responsibility. But it was the best 12 days of my life. I slept for about 2 days straight once we wrapped.

I am taking part in the 2015 Free-motion Quilting Challenge that Darlene at QuiltShopGal is hosting. Option #1 was to use Molly Hanson's book. I recently reviewed Free-Motion Quilting For Beginners and Those Who Think They Can't by Molly Hanson and decided to try her paisley free-motion quilting pattern. I have a huge box of orphan blocks so I just pulled one out and added some muslin borders to make it big enough for a pillow.
It was fun to try the paisley design…….no I didn't do it in the center squares…..I had a hard enough time getting it right in the border and sometimes…..I forgot where I was going.
I like the design but it took me longer and more thread than stippling. I definitely will try this pattern on a large quilt and do it larger.
A little tip for you when making a pillow……double check that you have the right side to the inside before sewing the darn thing together…..thank goodness for my seam ripper.
I wanted to finish the pillow with a zipper and didn't have any cream ones so I used a lavender one and made a concealed flap to hide it.
I planned on doing a tutorial on it but…..the photos didn't turn out too well with all the muslin so I will still have to get that done. I have a couple other pillows to show this week but just did the envelope on them.

Vice Principal, Paul Holman, and Head of 6th Form, Caroline Kurtulan, took some of the students who will become the Academy's first 6th Formers in September for a tour of the area that will become their own exclusive space with a quiet area for private studies and a communal area complete with an internet café.
"We have thrown out the question to those who will be the first to use the new facilities asking what they would like featured in the new centre and outdoor study area. This can range from the actual furnishings to the make of coffee to be served in the café. One of the new spacious adjoining classrooms in the centre will already be dedicated for IT," said Paul Holman.
Over 100 students from the region have applied for places at the new 6th Form, attracted not only by the new facilities but the wide range of subjects offered within the curriculum.
