St. Mary's Catholic Campus Ministry has had a great spring semester. Students have become more engaged and involved with the many different spiritual growth activities that the ministry has to offer. As the semester and school year comes to an end, we encourage our students to keep growing in their faith for their summer break. Volunteering and giving time to others is one way for students to achieve this. In Matthew 25:35 it states, "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me". It is important to refer our students back to scripture in order to encourage them to always give their works to others in need. Before this school year ends, our students will have the resources and spiritual support in order to keep their faith and continue to serve others. St. Mary's Catholic Campus Ministry has been growing abundantly. With your generosity in finances and prayers and our energetic yet determined staff, the SMCCM students will continue to grow and do great things. Your works and support are greatly appreciated and we ask that you continue to help strengthen and build the SMCCM community. Thank you!

I disagree with the user who commented that you wouldn't want to read this if you're a pregnant mother. I HIGHLY enjoyed this book while pregnant, and read it before my husband did so that I could highlight the areas I hoped he would focus on.
It was a very good book, and very helpful for both the mother and the birth partner.
A really useful & comprehensive book for birth partners/dads. You do NOT want to read it though -- if you are the expecting mom.
This is the best book for any birth partner. It's the only one to read.

more about food!
Every day after work at a job I held one summer, I would dream on the bus ride home of the block of cheese in my refrigerator. As soon as I got in my door, I would pick up into a run to the refrigerator. I would shred of the Saran wrap from the day before, grab a blunt knife, and slam that cheese block onto the cutting board. As I sliced, my jaw would lock and I would salivate like a Pavlov dog. As soon as a slice of cheese was in my mouth, my jaw would function again, my heart rate would slow down again and I would really taste that cheese. Soothing a ravenous appetite is such a joyous sensation. So, what a shame and uncomfort to have to eat without an appetite for what you are eating. Or worse, to have no appetite to eat anything at all.
I love to eat. I love to just think of eating. One of my favorite hobbies has been to read cook books- no need for pictures, just reading the recipes gives me a rush! I borrow cook books from the library and copy the recipes by hand on to recipe cards. As I hand write each recipe, it is like I am actually tasting this or that dish- I taste each ingredient listed one by one. Then I toss those same ingredients together with the olive oil and garlic in a sizzling hot pan and taste those same ingredients all in a different way.
Before I knew I had cancer, I ate considerably well, as I was raised eating a variety of foods, mostly health consciously. But I also didn't have a stopper to eating deliciously "bad" foods, either. In college, when I lived in Canada, I ate a considerable amount of such "bad" delicious food. It was a habit to eat very late, when my appetite flared the most, and alcohol sometimes tended to add to the effect. I lived downtown near a wild, raucous street that served food to the after-bar crowds. Appetites were unstoppable, and the foods were just what we wanted most- ninety-nine cent pizza by the slice, take-out Chinese, swarma and deep-fried samosas, and poutine, which is a Canadian specialty of French fries smothered in gravy. All of this may sound like what you would find in a pig's slop bucket, and it is, but believe me, at the time between two and four AM, there could be nothing better.
That was before cancer. Everything changes when you get cancer. You think of everything differently and you become overtly hyped-out concerned about everything you do. For me, of course, the way I thought about food changed drastically. I strongly believe now, with much common sense, that diet plays huge in health and recovery from disease. How could it not? What we put into our bodies accounts for so much of what we are made of and how the body maintains and repairs it's self day to day. So, naturally, my diet became a huge obsession, and I constantly want to know what is good and what is bad for me to eat.
I turned from reading pleasurable fiction novels to reading books about nutrition and diets. I've read about and tried such diets as the Paleo diet, macrobiotic diet, all vegan diet, and I have even tried the raw food diet, which is just about impossible. The raw vegetable based diet appealed to me because of the miracle stories I kept reading about how people had rid their cancers from the raw vegetable diet alone! People hold great claims on such diets as the Hippocrates diet, of the Gerson therapy. I wanted to believe these stories to be true so badly, especially since none of the twenty or so chemotherapeutic drugs have done a thing for me within the past three years I've had this cancer. But a big part of me can not help but be skeptical about it. All the same, I took on certain elements of these drastic diets- it could only help, right? This meant I would eat fruit in the morning, but nothing else, because you never combine fruit with another food! Vegetable juices throughout the day consisting of kale, spinach, chard, dandelion greens, beet greens, burdock root, parsley and sprouts. Very bitter! NO meat, NO dairy (that means no beloved cheese) and certainly NO sugar- cancer cells thrive on sugar. I was really starting to limit myself, and from the foods I had always enjoyed eating so much. Eating wasn't fun, it was a chore, and I only did it because I had to.
Lately, eating has become very difficult for me, due to the super toxic chemotherapy regimen I am now on, of which one of the drugs has the components of mustard gas! Think mustard gas and try to eat a broccoli stir-fry at the same time. Think of when you had the flu and a well intentioned caregiver was trying to force you to just eat, just eat something! This is how I feel now. I know how important it is to eat, but just thinking of it makes me have strong gag-reflexes. Drinking my all-green vegetable juices at this time is out of the question!
It is strange, then, that there have been a few bouts where I actually could imagine myself eating from a spare menu of choices. These food items have cheese in them. Mac '' cheese spirals, string cheese, or a spaetzle with cheese casserole. The other night, however, after trying to eat a healthful bowl of brown rice with tofu and edemame, all I had a hunger for was a cheeseburger and French fries, and they had to be from McDonalds. I could imagine exactly how the thin cheeseburger would taste, with it's tiny diced onions, thin meat patty, three ripple dill pickle slices, a little mustard, a little ketchup, a rubber slice of cheese, and, if I was lucky, there would be a single greasy thumbprint on top of the bun from whomever wrapped the little burger into it's pale yellow paper wrapper. I thought about how this burger, and it's accompanying French fries, would taste for three hours after attempting to eat my rice bowl dinner. Finally, I revealed my hankering to my mother, who laughed and said she would take me to McDonalds to put an end to it. It was about ten o'clock PM when I finally sat down to eat my dream food, and my mom was just so happy to see me eating like a normal person.

Rubber "FLAT" cheese, no less!!!
Are you still thinking about how the burger tasted now?

Hey Snora, great story. Maybe it's OK to listen to your body and if it says "feed me a cheeseburger" it's OK. Your body needs fuel to heal!! And getting excited about a cheeseburger and fries is better than not eating.
Also, that bunny made of rice is the cutest. Where do you get the cute bunny artwork??

You won't know who this is from but I am a long time admirer of yours. I have been so touched by your words and truths of you challenges with cancer. I am sorry I didn't see you last time I was in town but will be there again soon to check on all of the kids. My thoughts and best wishes are with you. Your admirer, Nan (Ben's mama)

Studio Visit: Eliza Spell
Eliza Spell is less jewelry maker and more black magic conjurer. Working with adornments of various cultures, Eliza creates pieces that are versatile and transcendental. A Richmond, Virginia-based artist, she is easily one of the most interesting and creative people we know. I caught up with her in her captivating studio space over the weekend and chatted about travel, metalworking and Jay-Z.
Eliza's workspace is packed to the brim with jewelry and art, both finished and in various states of progress, power tools and large scale equipment, and things that inspire her, from photos and books on Indian adornments to giant gemstones. Every corner is filled with a hundred things to look at and ask about, and Eliza patiently answers every question and explains the ideas and process behind every piece. She especially lights up, though, when talking about her affinity for Indian jewelry, her time spent working in Bali, and the sculptural headpieces she makes in tribute to her favorite artists, including Stevie Nicks and Jay-Z.
Eliza began with a background in sculpture, first in Western New York, and then here in Richmond at Virginia Commonwealth University. A lack of space forced her to work smaller, and she transitioned from large-scale metal work to incredibly detailed headdresses, which she calls "weird fan art", but are actually quite stunning and immensely labor-intensive. She is currently making one for Blue Ivy Carter, using the age-old and almost-extinct technique of bead looming.
She then spent some time as a piercer, which eventually took her to Bali to create a collection of jewelry. Back at home, Eliza began making pieces for herself, after being unable to find what she wanted on the market. An incredibly inspired and detail-oriented person, she spends most of her time in the studio, where she meticulously hand-makes every component of her one of a kind jewelry. Her sculptural tendencies give an air of industrialism to her work, while her love for Indian culture and jewelry clearly comes through in ornate details.

How Do I Decide Who to go With on a Photo Workshop?
There are so many people offering photo trips these days, it can be pretty difficult to know who to give your money to. How do you decide? There are any number of ways to go. From actual photo workshop companies to photo clubs using volunteer leaders to Joe Blow-trip leader who just wants to get his trip paid for by other people. Below are a few considerations before you hand over your hard-earned money for a photography trip.
Trip Goals
What are your trip goals and expectations? Do you want someone who can actually teach you and help you during all field shoots, or are you okay being left to your own devices during the trip with the trip leaders off doing their own portfolio shooting? Do you want someone who really knows the area who will give you information and advice from anything to logistics to restaurants to even where the bathrooms are, or are you fine with having to find out that information for yourself?
What do you expect that your money should buy? Are you ok with $1500 only getting you someone to take you to a location and abandon you, or do you think that amount should include all trip prep and planning from experienced leaders and hands-on assistance throughout the workshop on every shoot? Should that money include the knowledge of a leader who knows the place well enough to make changes and decisions on the fly in changing conditions, or simply just a tour guide that shrugs and says 'oh, well.'
What should you look for in a photo workshop leader? First of all, you should look for a company whose only business is photography workshops who employs actual photography instructors as their trip leaders. This company should also have a vested interest in STAYING in business. What does that mean? The workshop company should be ACCOUNTABLE – accountable for your money and accountable for your trip expectations.
This means the leaders are accountable for all of this as well. Are the leaders the same people who run the business? They should be. You want your interactions to be known by the people responsible for every aspect of the business.
What are the leaders' motivations? Do they just want to get their own vacation paid for, or is it their goal (and their JOB) to make sure YOU get everything you expect from a photo workshop? Are they just there to point the general direction you should go and then start their own shooting, or are they walking around checking in with everyone and offering help the whole time?
Do the leaders get proper permits for their trips? All National Parks require Commercial Authorizations for groups who pay someone money to be led through the park. We have heard of group leaders who don't get permits and tell their PAYING students to say they are all just friends or club members if a Ranger stops them to ask for permit. This is hogwash and completely unacceptable for someone who just charged you money for a photo workshop. ANY company, organization or individual who charges money to lead a group in a National Park MUST get a permit. After all, YOU paid for it….they should have it.
Still interested in going on a photo workshop? Well, here's the sum of our advice….and YES, maybe a little self-serving: If you are paying SIGNIFICANT money ($300 or more) for someone to lead you on a photography workshop, choose an actual COMPANY whose business it is to run photography workshops. Travel with a reputable company who uses actual photography instructors whose JOB it is to make sure you are happy…..not volunteers who also want to shoot, not a guy who wants his vacation paid for.
We are not saying you can't have fun with a group of people who are all paying their own way with no workshop fee being charged. In that case you should have no expectations of what other's roles should be and you can just go have fun. Of course, that could be great!
But the bottom line is, if a group, organization or individual is charging you money to lead a photo workshop, be smart with your money and make sure you know what you ARE and ARE NOT getting for those dollars. Make sure you go with the group who gives you the most value for your money.

Introduce a friend to your market for a chance to win big
Bring a friend to your favourite BC farmers' market in July and you could win a three night getaway for two to Sparkling Hill Resort in the Okanagan - plus more!
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - June 29, 2015) -
Editors Note: There is a graphic associated with this press release.
The BC Association of Farmers' Markets is excited to announce that July is Meet My Market month at farmers' markets across the province!
Throughout the month of July, anyone in BC can participate in Meet My Market month by bringing a friend to their local BC farmers' market and entering a grand prize giveaway via social media or in person at participating markets. Meet My Market month kicks off on July 1 and runs until July 31, 2015.
"There's no doubt that people in BC are passionate supporters of their local farmers' markets. With Meet My Market month, we're encouraging our loyal visitors to introduce a friend to their market - and to show off the beautiful in season foods, and the great neighbourhood experience they love," says Elizabeth Quinn, Executive Director at the BC Association of Farmers' Markets.
Across the province, more than 125 farmers' markets offer an abundance of locally grown food and locally made goods, along with community fun including live music, children's activities, cooking classes, artisan workshops and a place for neighbourhoods to come together.
"Farmers' markets are pretty much a second home for me," says Rachelle Zelaney, farmer and owner of Zelaney Farms in Vernon, BC. "My family has been growing food for the Vernon community and selling at our local markets for more than 25 years. We're very excited to meet some new faces at our booth during Meet My Market month in July!"
Says BC Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick, "There's something special about every farmers' market and I encourage everyone to share their favourite with a friend, as well as visiting a few more! When you visit your local farmers' market you can see and taste what BC has to offer and all while supporting local jobs and businesses."
"Vancity is thrilled to be supporting this initiative and encouraging British Columbians to show off the bounty of local food available at farmers' markets. Promoting a viable and sustainable food system is something that Vancity is invested in, and farmers' markets are an excellent vehicle to support local food security, a healthier environment and more resilient local economies. I can't wait to introduce a few of my friends to my local market this summer," says Moira Teevan, Community Investment Manager at Vancity and campaign supporter.
Funding support for Meet My Market month is provided, in part, by the BC Government's Buy Local Program; delivered by the Investment Agriculture Foundation of BC with funding from the BC Ministry of Agriculture, Vancity and the BC Association of Farmers' Markets.
Celebrate Meet My Market month this July and you could win big! Here's how:
1. At participating markets: Simply bring a friend to your favourite BC farmers' market and fill out a ballot at the info booth. Many markets are offering additional incentives such as a free coffee or baked treat.
2. Via social media: Snap a photo at your favourite BC farmers' market and post it on social media, tagging @bcfarmersmarket and add #MeetMyMarket to enter. Not on Instagram or Twitter? No problem. You can also enter via the BCAFM Facebook Page.

There is always something special about a new LEGO game, especially when it also just happens to be using one of my own nerd passions as the source material. I really loved the first LEGO MARVEL Super Heroes title, as a fan of MARVEL comic books and of LEGO games, it was sublime to see how large a chunk of the MARVEL universe was brought to life in LEGO with a huge roster of characters and a large world and back in 2013 when it first came out, it really was a game changer for the series after taking so much of the feedback from LEGO Batman 2 to improve its size and scale. Since that time the MARVEL Cinematic world has flourished and grown to crazy levels and instead of a follow up to Super Heroes, we were instead treated to a LEGO game based on the Avengers films and though it was fun, it was also very limited. But now finally we get the true sequel and perhaps the largest roster of characters in a LEGO game to date.
We start with the Guardians of the Galaxy doing what they do best, protecting the galaxy when they are called upon to help protect Nova Prime who are under attack from Kang the Conqueror. Soon they discover that Kang has been travelling through time conquering different MARVEL locations in order to create his own crowning city to celebrate his majesty and genius, Chronopolis. The Guardians soon rush to EARTH, realising that it is next on Kang's list to get help to defeat Kang, and it will take all our favourite heroes to do this.
It should be mention that unlike the first game, the roster this time has been affected by licensing issues and as such, and very sadly, the game no longer features those from the X-Men Universe which means no Wolverine or Cyclops and no Fantastic Four. Even Deadpool who was a fun Narrator and extra surprise in the first game is now replaced with GwenPool, who despite dressing like and acting like Deadpool does not have any of his abilities or affiliation but based on a special run of comics following the success of Spider-Gwen (Gwen Stacey becoming Spider-Man) which saw Gwen Stacey re-imagined as different MARVEL heroes including Wolverine and Doctor Strange. With so many fan favourites now missing from the line up, there has been a obvious focus on distracting fans by featuring more recent cinematic favourites such as the Guardians of the Galaxy who take a front and centre position in the roster as well as some of the characters getting a visual look such as Spider-Man now wearing the Spider-Man Homecoming suit and Thor with short hair as seen in Thor Ragnarok. It is noticeable but does not spoil too much of the story itself but I did miss having the X-Men in the roster.
So with that said I really had a great deal of fun with this game and was genuinely impressed with the size of the playable world. There is a true open world feel to the game following on from previous titles such as LEGO Batman 3 Beyond Gotham and LEGO MARVEL Avengers where outside of doing the main story missions, players are free to explore any of the locations that make up Chronopolis, each with their own side missions and puzzles to complete as the player works to collect the now traditional Gold bricks and to find new characters to unlock in the roster. I appreciated how the game doesn't pressure players to stick to the campaign, simply placing a marker to where the next story mission is and simply lets players enjoy a good explore and walk about. This is where the magic that makes a LEGO game so much fun comes into play with the freedom to do and play as you want but also that the game embraces players who choose to do this by having so much extra content to enjoy and play for doing so.
I also loved the little details as always in LEGO games with the dialogue of just random people who live in the different regions often chatting about the current state of the world or talking about the heroes themselves with some really delightful moments of dialogue exchanges you can come across just randomly. That attention to detail also follows with each and every member of the roster with some having very fun character abilities when you hold B down (Circle on PS4) which fans of the series will recognise but with certain characters this will also have a superb little touch such as Star Lord who will stop to put on his walkman which will play the first 40 seconds or so of well known songs from Guardians of the Galaxy to which he will start dancing to and if any basic enemies are nearby, will also join in for a bit of a boogie, even in the middle of a boss fight! The fun of discovering such things are all part of the make up that make LEGO games so much fun for fans of them and especially for those who know the source material used really well. Also Kang is the best written villain in any LEGO game so far, the dialogue he has is so well voice acted that just stopping to listen to him on the Chronopolis PA System is a true joy.
It would be fair to say that the focus of the gameplay now revolves around playing as a team and most of the story missions themselves feature anything from a three character team to up to five. Now the player can switch between the characters quickly using the shoulder buttons and each character is there for a reason based upon their powers for what is required for that mission. Some of the team ups can be quite fun but I did find that the same core characters are used a lot with the introduction of a new character whenever the location of the story moves to next visiting a new city that makes up Chronopolis. Teamwork is vital in solving some of the puzzles to gain progression with certain powers required and the design of the levels both from a gameplay and visual point of view are truly spot on. The only real niggle I had to the level design has to come in the form of the push for 'Free Play' to complete everything. For those not familiar with LEGO games, when you complete a story mission you will unlock the 'Free Play' option which allows you to replay the mission but with free choice over which character from the roster you can pick, with the added ability to freely change during the level just by holding down Y (Triangle on PS4) to bring up the large character roster.
My only complaint with this comes in just how much of the level is really designed for Free Play, a lot of the mini kit collectibles, new character cards and even rescuing Stan Lee, who returns to make his famous MARVEL cameos, will require a different character power then your team will have. The fun of first hearing Stan asking for a super hero to save him soon becomes one of disappointment when you are unable to save him but his cries can be heard right up until you move to the next section of the level.
One of the downsides to having a fairly large hero team each level is that the combat itself can feel really clumsy, especially when using big characters such as Hulk with the combat just becoming a button mash which then undoes the attempt to feature the hero team up combo moves with the hit detection being off at times. The loss in precision just makes it ugly at times which is highlighted more in the boss fights with no real reaction when you hit the boss character and even at times you can get their health bar all the way down but the fight carries on until the animation sequence is completed. The camera can also be a pain at times with flying characters and during some levels not offering enough view or moving too slowly to help you know where to go or see where to land. But these niggles do interfere too much but are noticeable enough and hopefully future updates can smooth these out.
LEGO MARVEL Super Heroes 2 is a return to form for the LEGO series in the MARVEL universe after taking a time out to focus on adapting the movies into a game. With the freedom to tell their own MARVEL story in their own LEGO MARVEL universe, the game is able to tell a better and original story with the TT Games spin and it more than delivers enough fan service for MARVEL fans and LEGO game fans. As someone who worked to get 100% of the game done on both the Xbox 360 release and PlayStation 4 remastered of the first game, I will admit to being a little daunted by just how much there is to do in Super Heroes 2 but the world is just such a fun place to be in as a player that I know I will relish every moment until that final Gold Brick and roster character is discovered. I get a real kick out of seeing the different variations of heroes from different time eras so having Spider-Man Noir meeting modern day Spider-Man before meeting Spider-Man 2099 is a real treat. I do appreciate the blending of their own vision of the MARVEL universe and that of taking cinematic MARVEL universe as different players will know these heroes from different mediums either comic books, the films or TV animation shows. The effort to include every form of MARVEL fan here in the fan service appeal is something I found satisfying.
With Christmas approaching this is the perfect gift for any MARVEL fan, although I am still very disappointed that online co-op is still not included but they have tried to encourage some sofa team ups with the new four player Battle arena but what I have pleaded with for so long now is a return to having actual online co-op for these games and with team ups now standard, it would be so much fun to share this experience with friends online instead of it purely being a solo experience story wise. There is just so much to do and enjoy in this game which made me smile from the very moment I started the story to the moment the credits finished rolling, by the way there are also post credit scenes you do not want to miss so do watch them fully even if the only song that plays is Mr Blue Sky which will have you dancing for the first two times it plays but by the time the fourth repeat of it kicks in you will have to right the urge to skip the credits.
The season pass is a very acceptable £11.99 and will being six new levels and character packs to an already huge experience, some will be based on future MARVEL cinematic films such as Ant-Man and the Wasp as well as Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War. There is so much MARVEL content to come with this game in the future that it is just staggering how much they can put into these games which just keep getting bigger with each release.
Now I am just hoping the next release will either take us back to the DC Comic universe or my own personal hope is a fully fledged out Doctor Who game…but for now, I am going to indulge in my MARVEL fanboy and I still have a lot of work to do in Chronopolis!

Shawnee High School - Class of 1965
Reunion Memoriam Quilna '65 Where Are They?
Please fill out the online questionnaire by clicking HERE
Our Class Year Book
"Dear Classmates:
"Work on the 1965 Quilna was begun in the summer of 1964, and was finished shortly after graduation of the Class of 1965. A yearbook summarizes a school year, but what you see here is only a summary of a summary. You do not see the unused pictures, the discarded dummy sheets, or the first-draft copy. Neither does this book show the anxiety before the first grade card, the frantic last-minute work on a term paper, or the lump in a Senior's throat when he realizes high school is over. These 160 pages capture only a small part of the year. Each person must supply the rest. A yearbook can not make memories, it can only stimulate them."
"The staff has worked hard on the Quilna this year. We have not only tried to record the history of a year, but even more important -- and more difficult -- we have tried to record the spirit of this school year. We have waited anxiously to see the finished product, but it will be years before we find out how successful we were -- when we open the pages of this book and remember."
Just click on the thumbnail to see the
page full size.
Please click on one of the contact links for Betsi Baker Burden or Jerri Longworth Kohlhorst for additional information.
We also strongly urge you to become a member of Facebook and mention Jerri as a "friend".
This seems to have become the clearing house for finding, chatting and meeting with folks from our class and several other class year alumni.
She has over 60 classmates connected to her page so far.
It doesn't cost a cent and you can limit personal information disclosure.
Further, if you wish not to have any contact with anyone from high school, please be courteous enough to drop Jerri or Betsi a note so that they and others don't waste a lot of time and effort trying to find you. We will respect your wishes and privacy.
This is the Electronic Age folks, let's get with it, connect now!

Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Huntsville District Curriculum
Mathematics at Huntsville School begins with children using manipulatives to learn how to count by assigning numbers to each item in a set. Soon children begin to combine sets and taking away items to learn how to add and subtract. Continuing to use manipulatives students are guided through more advanced math, including algebraic equations. Students learn that there are a variety of ways to solve problems they may face in their lives.
Social Studies is introduced to students through the discussion of rules that are used in the home and the classroom. Students and teachers discuss the need for these rules to keep the members of each place safe. They are then introduced to the rules, or laws of the community and the government body that creates these laws. Before long, students realize that each group of people around the world has rules that help them to be productive and safe. They then realize that this is just one way in which each person has something in common with another.
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.

To aid in this, students will be doing quite a bit of writing. During this year students will learn how to write to inform and to persuade. They also learn how to use adjectives to help bring their writing to life. Writing stories and other creative fiction is also a component of the curriculum and used to help develop a range of literacy goals such as word development, understanding parts of speech, and organizing ideas. Common spelling rules, spelling types and compound sentences also are used to help students become better in both creating the letters and creating ideas.

Training when you're on vacation and out of your regular routine can be difficult but if you follow a program through Beachbody On Demand, it doesn't have to be hard at all! I usually scope out the gym and see what they have. If theres a nice selection of weights Ill follow my plan, if not Ill pick a program that requires nothing and stream it right from my hotel room! No excuses to get my sweat on!
The sun can zap your hydration before you even know it. To avoid dehydration and that dreaded hangover, sip water throughout the day and try to have a glass of water between alcoholic beverages. Try to at least two liters of water per day. I always bring my refillable water bottle and often times the hotel has a place to refill it!
Oh I know: one of the best parts about vacation is eating in great restaurants! However, restaurant food can quickly deplete your wallet and pack on pounds. Try making a batch of these protein balls before hand or store dried goods like apples, bananas, nuts, and protein shakes like shakeology in your hotel room for quick mid-day snacks. If theres a fridge Ill also stock up on some yogurt and and chia seed pudding from a local health food store.
Sleep in!!
If you're planning to party it up don't schedule a 6 a.m. kayak trip for the next day. Make sure to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep every night. Sleep is a critical component of a healthy hormonal balance and will make you feel light and bright every day.
Who wants to spend their vacation feeling like a zombie? When you do finally make it back to your room, grab a sleep mask to block out external light and turn off the alarm clock.
That's it. Hope these tips will help you stay on track and have fun doing it. And not only will you have fun on your trip, you'll have more fun re-entering the atmosphere when it's time to return to the real world because you won't have set yourself back and start all over. Happy Spring Break friends!
If you're looking for some extra accountability, join one of my online groups!

Harassed parents threaten to make school fee hike poll issueApril 9th, 2009 - 7:19 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, April 9 (IANS) Hike in school fees and then in development and activities fee in many Delhi schools has become a major cause of concern to many parents. Tired of the financial and mental stress this has put on them, the Delhi Parents Council has now threatened to make it an election issue if the government does not take up the matter immediately.
Praveen Khandelwal, president of the Delhi Parents Council, said Thursday that despite the "mindless" increase in school fees, the Delhi government has maintained a silence, which in turn is now agitating parents.
"Through a Right to Information (RTI) application, we found that the total education cess collected from Delhi has been enormous. In 2006-07, it was more than Rs.418 crore, between 2007-08 it was Rs.377 crore, and until January 2009, the cess collected was Rs.286 crore," Khandelwal said.
"Therefore, instead of burdening parents with hefty fee, the government should compensate the private schools by providing financial support out of education cess, which is kept unutilised in the Prathamik Shiksha Kosh (primary education fund) established in 2005," he added.
Khandelwal also said that the onus of meeting the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission in terms of salary hikes of teaches has put an additional burden on parents.
"We, therefore, demand that the Delhi government should form a joint committee of officials and representatives of schools and parent bodies, and the union government should provide financial assistance to schools from the education cess collected."
"The government should remember that people will vote for a party that looks after their needs and if need be, we will not hesitate in making this an election issue," he said.

Another blog entry, and so soon after the last. Amazing!
We're now into October and the weather is becoming more autumnal. Throughout the whole of September we had almost no rain - and bear in mind I'm cycling twice a day now so I take note of these things - but yesterday and today there has been rain both days. Not enough to put me off, though, not just yet!
Quiet weekend just gone, Jacqueline is still not 100% and to make matters worse she's passed her cold onto me, so I too am not 100%. So we hardly went out. However we did accomplish a mammoth task - tidying Alice's bedroom - which took eight or nine hours to do properly. We ended up with six full bin liners, but really cleaned the room from top to bottom, wardrobe, toy chests, the lot. Looks a lot better now, but I'm going to have to put my policeman's hat on every week now to make sure it stays tidy. We've been lax in this area before, but really at 10 years old Alice is old enough to take on this responsibility, especially now she has been given a head start.
Still disappointing, though, that she wants to hoard everything. We had started out with the intention of donating little-used toys to the charity shop, but in the end there was no middle ground. Things were either thrown away, or were kept. She can't bear to part with anything, even stuff she hasn't touched for years. Very annoying.
Not a great deal else happening. Finally got a skype account and a little box which enables us to use the existing phone, although to get it working properly I needed some special phone connectors, and the only shop that had exactly what I wanted was based in Hong Kong. So I'll probably have to wait a week or two before everything is wired up properly. The plan is that the cost of this equipment (around £30 all told, plus £10 per quarter for Skype) will pay for itself in reduced phone bills - we'll have to wait and see.
As soon as we get a bright weekend, when I'm feeling Ok, I really want to get down to the Purbecks and take some photographs. I haven't picked the camera up for ages and I'm missing it.
Oh, and last Friday was the twentieth anniversary of my starting work. So I went out to Bodeans for a slap-up lunch, and some people from the current clients came with me. Great food once again.

Almost like clockwork at the start of each year, top paint manufacturers debut their new color schemes and trot out their "it" colors. Coral Reef, Springtime Dew, Guildford Green, Pink Ground; so tempting — and sure to perk up a home, especially for spring.
Conventional wisdom says paint is the easiest, least expensive quick-change artist in a homeowner's tool box. Problem is, as with much conventional wisdom, it's not quite so simple.
"It's a big commitment to paint walls," says New York City architect Anjie Cho.
Choosing a color after painting swatches or taping paint chips to a wall; checking them out during day and at night; buying brushes, rollers, drop cloth, primer, sandpaper and tape; and finally applying one or two coats of the winning shade obviously takes time. And then the color may look different once it covers an entire wall or room because lighting and furnishings affect results.
"I often see what I call 'a paint chip gone wrong,' " says San Francisco designer Claudia Juestel, adding, "As a general rule, when applied to four walls, a light color looks lighter and a bright color appears brighter than the small paint chip or swatch."
Of course, you can hire a professional painter or color expert who understands the nuances, but they can be expensive. The new wisdom about paint, in a world where the hot hues you spot on Pinterest one day can leave you with painter's remorse the next: Tread carefully when it comes to trends.
"Their appeal may be fleeting," Juestel says. She advises picking a palette — walls and furnishings — that works with your home, amount of light and personality. "There's no color that's bad or dated, but a combination of colors can appear so. Mauve or blue-gray by themselves are fine, but if you put them together they can scream '80s."
The other new wisdom? If a dose of trend is what you need to make your place feel updated, adding color is still a solid place to start, even if you stick to a low-commitment approach. Here are alternatives to inject 2015 colors without painting, then repainting when new palettes debut:
n Think artwork. Art is among many design professionals' favorite sources of color. If your budget is tight, Cho suggests making your own masterpiece atop canvas — a solid or abstract, as one client did. Or go online and have a favorite photo printed in a large scale atop canvas.
Los Angeles designer Mae Brunken likes to frame wallpaper, usually from Flavor Paper, in a large white museum-style frame in her office, and changes it out regularly.
Los Angeles designer Erica Islas used similar white frames to showcase colorful children's artworks on off-white painted walls in clients' living rooms. She introduced more color with guitars on an opposite wall, sea- foam rug underfoot, and blue and green pillows atop a blue sectional.
n Add greenery and flowers. Greenery and flowers — even a single orchid plant — can inject color.
n Play up accents. A colorful throw, sari, pillows, lamps, vases, headboard, towels can all add color, and sometimes texture, says Brunken. Even many kitchen appliance companies now offer their products in a rainbow of hues. Keurig's 2.0 brewer (and a multitude of other products for the kitchen) comes in Pantone's 2015 color of the year, Marsala.
n Showcase one colorful chair, chaise, or ottoman. It doesn't have to be an expensive sofa or all your seating, but one new upholstered or slipcovered piece can make a difference. Florida designer Holly McCall enlivened her neutral-colored office simply by painting her IKEA chairs with Annie Sloan's Antibes green chalk paint.
n Judge a book by its jacket. They don't all have to be serious and leather bound, or wrapped in original, maybe, dusty jackets. Brunken likes the idea of covering your books in vivid tones or sophisticated white for a wow background effect. The idea takes time if you do it yourself, but there are companies that do the work for you; one color-wrapping them by the foot.
n Focus on the fifth wall. Chicago designers David Kaufman and Tom Segal begin a blank room's color scheme with the rug choice. "It's the grounding for the design, figuratively and literally," Segal says. "It sets the tone, palette, and from there you can select interesting fabrics."
Certain rugs also add a handcrafted, knotted touch, says Christopher Frederick, president of Organic Looms, whose rugs are made in Nepal. For a sleek, hip, almost boutique hotel-style black and white bedroom, Chicago designer Aimee Wertepny went with a rug that's a "neon-electric-teal-vintage-electro-mod pop of color for the otherwise monochromatic palette," she says.
Still want to paint?
Here's how to get color with a longer shelf life, from Jackie Jordan of Sherwin-Williams:
n A color of the year is often trendy. You don't have to use it for an entire room, consider it in small doses.
n Pick a color after placing a swatch or panel of it behind a sofa or by the room's trim or floor so you see how it really will look. Go a bit darker rather than lighter. Pick the color one chip down from what you initially thought.
n Also consider neutrals, for a more subtle change. Kilim Beige has been the company's No. 1 color choice for several years; Accessible Beige is a popular newcomer, and Light French Gray is expected to become another classic.
n Easier to go white? Not so fast, since there are so many variations — warm to cool, with pink to blue undertones.
n Don't forget the right finish. Flat for walls and ceilings conceals imperfections, is durable and washable. Trim represents more of a personal choice, but best in satin, semi-gloss or high-gloss, depending on how bold you want to get.

Baby's hospital bag
Your baby needs a hospital bag too, because even though he enters the hospital or birthing centre with everything he needs in mum's womb, he will need some important items for after birth.
Are you unsure about what exactly you should pack in your hospital bag? We know it's not an easy task, but it has to be done whether you're giving birth in a hospital or at home. Remember, you have to prepare for everything when you are expecting. So we thought we'd put together  a list of the essentials for your baby after birth. Here it goes…
- Clothes. Pick your favourite baby grows for those first pictures and of course those which are weather appropriate.
- A baby blanket.
- Nappies. You are going to need A LOT as newborns can use up to 12 each day!
- Muslin squares
- Baby socks and booties. Your baby needs to be as warm as possible.
- A hat.
- A jacket if you're having a winter baby.
- Vaseline, baby wipes and baby powder for diaper changes.
- Bottles if you won't be breastfeeding.
The final item on the list won't fit in your hospital bag, but it is vital that you don't forget it…the car seat. It is best to have it prepped and ready to go by week 36 of pregnancy, just like your hospital bag. Trying to fit all of the above into one hospital bag, along with all of you and your partner's stuff, may seem like an impossible task, but don't worry we've written an article with tips on how to pack lightly that will hopefully make it easier for you.

Going by idealism, and keeping it consistent, there's no difference among you and my experiences of you. — jorndoe
'The map is not the territory', which uses 'to be' in the 'identity' use. So according to Korzybski himself, his most famous utterance may be meaningless. — andrewk
The relevance of that to the thread is that, without that verb, I don't think one can even describe a difference between an Idealist and a materialist. The difference dissolves to just one of language use. — andrewk
The imaginary vs real distinction doesn't relate to the question of Idealism vs Materialism. Both Idealists and Materialists make the imaginary vs real distinction.If you asked this Indonesian tribe whether imaginary rocks are made up out of the same stuff as ordinary ones you stump your toe on, would they say yes? — Marchesk
The question is though, given Korzybski's concerns about the use of 'is' in the 'identity' sense (concerns that presumably arose later in his life, subsequent to his making the famous statement), how would he have rephrased that statement?Of course the map isn't the territory. — Marchesk
I suppose if I wanted to ask an Indonesian, in Indonesian, whether Harry Potter is real, I might ask something like 'Do you think anybody ever did all those things that the book says Harry Potter did?'. — andrewk
There are minds other than mine. It's idealism, but not solipsism. — Michael
Now just take away the physical bodies. There are minds other than mine. It's idealism, but not solipsism. — Michael
I never understood how idealism justified this stance. I get that metaphysically non-solipsistic idealists maintain there are other minds, but how they know this is problematic. — Marchesk
So me perceiving your body is how I know you have a mind? *Ahem*
Yes. Isn't that also what the materialist says? — Michael
How does the materialist know that there are other minds? — Michael
If so, then the materialist can say that we perceive the activity of a mind when interacting with another human being. — Marchesk
It's not some obscure tribe by the way. It's the official language of Indonesia, spoken by more than 200 million people. — andrewk
That doesn't work, because minds aren't ideas. — Marchesk
The idealist claim that all things are fundamentally mental or immaterial in nature is not to say that only my experiences exist. — Michael
And the idealist's claim that independent minds can interact with and perceive each other is no more problematic than the physicalist's claim that independent bodies can interact with and perceive each other. — Michael
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.

Lagos State Government on Wednesday said on-going works at Agege Township Stadium shall be completed, ahead of Confederation of African Football(CAF) inspection in December for the 2017/2018 Champions League.
" Ambode has said that all hands must be on deck to support MFM FC.
"We need to upgrade the stadium because we will be hosting CAF competitions.
"The stadium is about 60 per cent ready, and all the necessary adjustment would have been made before the CAF inspection by December; it is an achievable target to get the facility ready.
"What the Lagos State Sports Commission will do is to ensure that all the necessary structures are put in place for MFM FC to have a pass mark for the stadium,'' he said.
Yusuf said that the upgrade of the stadium was in line with the government's policy of providing standard sports facilities to drive the state economy.
"The remodeling is part of the state government's policy of providing excellent facilities across the state.
"Government has committed huge sums of money, which we cannot have the full estimate now, for the upgrade because there are many facilities that will be added to it.
"Some of it will be remodeling of the VIP stands, construction of new players' dressing room, referees' room, conveniences and sick bay; many more facilities will be added to the stadium.
"By the time work is done, we will see a stadium that will pass the CAF inspection,'' he said.
The Director of MFM FC, Emmanuel Adeyemi, thanked the government for immense support.
"We will like to thank Lagos State Government for tremendous support.
"It has given us all the necessary things we needed; ours is to go there and justify the investment on us.
"We will ensure a good outing in our continental campaign to make Lagos the dream of others in continental football,'' he said.

F. K. Warren Limited is one of the oldest and most respected Marine Agencies in Atlantic Canada.
The Company was established by the Warren Family of Halifax and was incorporated in 1896. For many years the Company operated sailing vessels trading between Nova Scotia and ports in the West Indies and in addition chartered vessels to carry apples and lumber to the United Kingdom.
Throughout the 1930's a subsidiary, the Interprovincial Steamship Company, traded between Halifax, Saint John, St. Lawrence River Ports and the Great Lakes. Following the end of the war the Company gradually withdrew from this trade having decided to concentrate their efforts on providing quality Ship Agency services at ports in Atlantic Canada. In 1960 branch offices were opened in Saint John, New Brunswick and Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia. In 1991 another branch office was opened in St. John's, Newfoundland.
In 1978 FK Warren purchased Pickford & Black; another well established shipping agency which was founded in Halifax in 1876. Pickford & Black continues to represent many shipowners under that brand today.
McLean Kennedy was founded in 1889 by Charles McLean, who had a steamship and brokerage Company, and Murray Kennedy who was involved in the lumber business. One of the oldest steamship agencies in Canada, McLean Kennedy has steadily grown and expanded its business since its early days of providing lumber chartering and stevedoring services from the St. Lawrence River and the Atlantic Provinces.
With five offices in Atlantic Canada, and offices in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver FK Warren/Mclean Kennedy continues as a leader in providing a comprehensive range of services at all ports throughout Canada with a proven ability to render first class service. Each of our offices conducts business around the globe and has staff on duty 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year.
The principal business of F K Warren/Mclean Kennedy traditionally has been Marine/Ships Agency where we attend to more than900 vessels in Canada annually. These vessels include drilling rigs, seismic vessels, offshore support vessels, tankers, VLCCs, container vessels, cruise liners, fishing fleets, breakbulk and bulk ships, heavy lift vessels and other highly specialized carriers.
In addition to vessel agency we have managed the logistics of over 1000 containers per week from all points in Canada and the US Midwest over the ports of Halifax, Montreal and Vancouver. Our business lines have expanded from Marine Agency to include not only logistics but also Offshore Services whereby we have aligned ourselves with other service professionals to provide crewing, custom brokerage, freight-forwarding, travel consultation, stevedoring, warehousing and an offshore supply base.
Having a proud tradition of representing first class principals, FK Warren/Mclean Kennedy is fortunate to have a dedicated, experienced staff committed to providing our customers with a personalized and professional service.

We were tasked to upgrade and enhance the presentation systems of the London Stock Exchange's Theatre and Corporate Boardroom. The design and installation needed to provide seamless technology for collaboration and presentation spaces and boast direct global connectivity to the London Media Gateway via the BT Tower.
Key Stats
• Both environments had multiple inputs and outputs powered and controlled by the Crestron Digital Media Platform
• Both rooms were executed in swift 4 week upgrade windows supported by the LSEG Facilities team and TPS Interiors
• Cutting edge high resolution LED displays in both spaces
• First 1.9mm Christie Apex LED Display in the corporate sector in the UK
• First 1.5mm Samsung LED Display in the corporate sector in the UK
• AV Connected to central building control system
• Subtle sound reinforcement and sound reproduction throughout both spaces
In the 120 seat Theatre the Focus 21 team specified a 9m x 2m Christie Apex LED tile array as the display centrepiece in the Theatre. This 1.9mm pixel pitch screen is used to display multiple windows on the canvas, linked via the Christies Spyder Processor to a Crestron Digital Matrix that features 32 different inputs including HDMI wired and wireless sources, and twelve SDI feeds leading to and from the Broadcast TV studio, where IPTV encoders and five cameras enable the team to record and broadcast from the Theatre on the client's IPTV network and out to the world via the London Media Gateway.
Presenters can select from the wired lectern and table top microphones or the Shure Microflex wireless microphones for flexibility. To encourage participation and collaboration the entire audience area is covered by six Shure MXA ceiling array microphones, providing excellent participant coverage especially for video, audio and web conferencing. Audio is dispersed around the gently tiered auditorium through Bose's MA12, subwoofers and ceiling speakers. The entire audio system is controlled by a Soundcraft Dante mixing desk with 2 QSC Core DSP's.
All elements of the installation are run from a control room at the rear, which house's five technical positions to control elements from audio, lighting to real time monitoring and live feeds.
The 20 person boardroom simultaneously underwent a full refurbishment, now featuring a large table with cutting edge presentation and conferencing functionality. A 123" 1.5mm Samsung LED wall replaces the previous 84" LCD Flat Panel display as the room's centrepiece.
We began the project on 17th December 2016 and needed to complete it by 23rd January 2017 to allow for a week of testing, verification and optimisation. This was an ambitious schedule and our team had to work extra vigilantly to ensure that meetings in the other spaces were not disrupted.
This project was part of an ongoing relationship with London Stock Exchange after the team replaced the backdrop for its TV studio in 2011 and a complete refit of a trading floor in 2014.

چکیده انگلیسی
This paper evaluates the influence of contracting out, or outsourcing, certain airport services and of commercial diversification strategy. Although most of the effort is being put towards applying non-parametric techniques in airport efficiency studies, we have chosen parametric methodology. We use a distance function, as it has known advantages. The findings show the positive contribution of outsourcing and non-aeronautical revenues on the efficiency of the Spanish airports' network.
مقدمه انگلیسی
Measurement of an airport's efficiency is important in ensuring its efficiency. Evaluating the efficiency of airports is, however, difficult. Factors such as the ownership structure, political constraints and the economic structure of the region the airport is located in make the evaluation of the efficiency difficult. Changes in airport ownership patterns have shifted managerial attention towards commercial returns and non-core airport activities. Oum et al. (2006), for example, found evidence that business diversification helps airports achieve higher operating efficiency, because of complementary demands between aeronautical and commercial services. However, they had limited data on outsourcing activities and this may explain why outsourcing had no relationship with efficiency. Low and Tang (2006) found outsourcing to be a substitute for both labour and capital, and could be an alternative to investment. Spain's airport network was centrally managed until the beginning of the 1990s after which airport authorities were allowed to exploit their facilities on a commercial basis, to improve efficiency. The result was that some core airport activities were outsourced to exploit the complementary demand between aeronautical and commercial services. Here we evaluate the influence of contracting out (outsourcing) and commercial diversification strategy on the technical efficiency of airports.
نتیجه گیری انگلیسی
The paper estimates a distance function to analyze and explain Spanish airport efficiency. We consider that the multioutput parametric stochastic distance function outperforms the previous methodologies used in most airport efficiency and performance studies. It has valuable advantages, when analysing the efficiency of regulated industries like airports. Moreover, the empirical evidence found in this study was similar to those in the literature reviewed. On the one hand, airports that outsource some services are expected to have a higher efficiency level than those that do not. The reason is that they are able to focus more attention on their core services and thus improve their competence. Spanish airports that outsource their peripheral services show an above average level of efficiency. Consequently, Spanish airport managers should be free to outsource some terminal services to specialized firms. On the other hand, Spanish airports with well-developed commercial activities are also more efficient than those that do not diversify revenue sources. However, we have to say that this effect may be associated to the airport's international passenger volume airport.
