"Most of us are dragged
toward wholeness
We do not understand
the breakdown of what has gone before.
We do not understand.
We cling to the familiar,
refuse to give up our habitual lives,
resist our growth.
We do not understand rebirth
do not accept the initiation rites.

Anyone seen Cinderella? (New Forest, England): On one of the smaller roads driving through deep woods sat this lone shoe at the side of the road. We see a lot of things driving through the Forest but his one really stood out. I wonder what the story was. Dropped out of a backpack? Thrown out of a car after causing blisters? We will never know. It had hardly been worn, had a huge platform and as you can see about a six inch heel. Oh and it was just my size.......an 8. (flickr)

One Sunday night my friend Smooth Jazz and I walked out of a bar downtown, talking and laughing. Suddenly we both stopped and stared. On top of an overflowing trash can we saw this: one acrylic fxck-me shoe standing proudly on top of the trash can. Just one. And it certainly wasn't there when I walked by on my way in. I couldn't have missed it. We searched around -- with our eyes; of course, we didn't touch anything -- for the other one. (link)

Roadside Shoe! "Have you ever noticed how many shoes are on the highway?" No, I never had. I'd seen shoes on the road, but I'd never given that fact much thought. Until I started to see them everywhere. Now, when I spy a roadside shoe, I call SC and say, "I've seen a shoe!" Then I wait for his congratulations and promptly hang up. I wish he'd return the favor, because honestly, if there's a roadside shoe out there, I want to know about it. (link)

Don't Lose a shoe. Tonight, I saw some dried mud at a construction site and decided to walk on top of it around the huge cracks in the dirt. Unfortunately, below the surface, the mud was the perfect consistency to suck me in up to my knees. Luckily, I pulled myself out along with my Teva sandals and Thor-lo socks. The clothes are now in the wash. No way would I toss a good pair of shoes and socks. But apparently, some other lady lost her shoe at the SunTrust ATM, which I had visited earlier in the evening.

Early morning at the beach front motel. A group of young men & women were partying hard around the pavillion last night. Some kind of meeting. I wondered what might have been left behind by the heavy drinkers. What's this? Single red shoe, almost new, in the dew damp grass. Strange, the pavillion where they were dancing and partying is a good ways away. Wonder what happened? Did the woman kick her shoe off this far, in a fit of party revelry? Did someone swipe her shoe and toss it way out here? Did she come out here in the dark for a romantic moment, lose her shoe, and leave without it? Where is the mate? Did she leave wearing it, or did somone get it. (oocities.org)

Another lost sole. (flickr)
And so this past Sunday (at around 7:30am) I leave my house and walking down 16th Street notice this single shoe! Immediately the snapshot in my mind begins to construct a whole scenario... the young lady was partying on Saturday, perhaps became a little too tipsy and left a shoe as she got into a car. And then I think... oh no, perhaps she was attacked by somebody, dragged into a car leaving a shoe behind! But perhaps... someone was loading a car for a time away and, unfortunately, a shoe slipped out of the bag! Who knows? (click here for link)
"Hymbl" spotted this pump in perfect condition at a busy junction in Chayolu, Turkey, not very far away from a popular nightlife district.
Cinderella needed for a Prince Charming. No I did not place this shoe here. I just happened to be walking along and then saw this random shoe placed on the corner and so I snapped it. The funny thing is, is that this is a very popular corner to take pictures of the iconic Flinders St Station (Melbourne), but the shoe seems to put people off; like it was honey trap or a Candid Camera scene waiting to happen. I was in a hurry, so I never got to find out if it was a stunt; however the perfect placement of a new shoe would suggest so.
When the original page dedicated to abandoned and misplaced shoes became too long, I have created this second one. The theme and criteria are identical.

As an illustration of a businessman gives the example of Central Park in New York, which has long been abandoned, and then restored the joint efforts of business and government.
The second stage is for 10 years - from 2020 to 2030 - and involves the expansion of the park to 550 hectares vplotdo Green Valley Highway. In the third phase will increase the protected area to 3,000 hectares by the existing forest clearing and planting of new trees. To find the money for the project, Boyko offers apply to mirovomuopytu. "Throughout the world, such infrastructure projects financed by housing. Part of the proceeds of its realization sredstvot embedded in landscaping around it, "- explains the mechanism of Alexander Boyko.
According to his calculations, for tidying Zaeltsovsky park of 34 hectares need more than 30 million dollars, or about1 billion rubles. To find the money for the project, the expert is proposing to build the 5th bridge, suspension which passes through the park according to the plan of City Hall, and build up the left bank.
In 2012, "Transervice" acquired land in the area under construction Zaeltsovsky fitness center area of over 10 thousand square meters. m To control the future park is proposed to establish a public-private partnership.
Larissa Yushchuk, CEO of creative architectural studio "Lanterna", said that now the concept is still under development and will be ready in 2 weeks, after which it will be offered to citizens and City Hall. "The main problem - the park itself is very dirty. There permanent illegal dumps "- says she.
Director Park Zaeltsovsky Vladimir Kozyrev said that park with relict forest over Central district. Project "TRANSERVIS" he has not yet seen. Previously, the department property and land relations VAT came into court spors company leased in 2006 land in the arboretum.
Area near the garages on the street. Zhukovsky, where requested to do "East Entrance" in the park
Evaluating the concept of improvement of boron, the experts disagreed. Inna Sadykova, landscaper, head of the "Gardenscapes" project called "TRANSERVIS" "popular initiative", specifies that the Western experience should not be "blindly copied." She is confident that the park should show rare specimens of plants characteristic of Western Siberia.
Olesya Valger, coordinator of the "Maimed Novosibirsk", said he feared one-sided implementation of the idea - that "everything that can be built - will be built, and about everything else is forgotten." So does it have caused questionsAbout paving highway near the river ravine Eltsovka: "This issue is a key concept in this and it is very dangerous. I saw no Rasun to pave the road next to the ravine and at the same time preserve the floodplain. It is difficult and expensive. No money no takihv city or practice. " Independent ecologist Sergey Pashchenko believes Eltsovka is now one of the dirtiest rivers of the city under which "hangs collector." It "Transervice" proposes to establish a system of lakes.
Artem Stingrays, the deputy of the Legislative Assembly, member of the working group for the development of the arboretum, assesses the concept of "TRANSERVIS" as "an attempt to search for commercial gain at the output of the 5th bridge. It is today the most "golden" land, which is in the city, which is strongly interested in business as it is in the green area. " Playground also of interest because it will pass through the line on the 5th bridge - and with it a large number of people. MP proposed to develop forest as a place for quiet and recreational sports, but not as an area for business and entrepreneurship.
The creator of "Saentifik Future Management» (SFM) Andrew Bekarev confident of success idea: "If it interferes Delaunay someone else, then this project has a 100%-s chances realized.
Irresistible force can occur at any stage: officials or, say, a new movement will arise volunteers, who will act for the preservation of the landfill. I'm a little familiar with his project. In my opinion, it is quite logicheni may be the hallmark of Novosibirsk. " Expert lamented the fact that the city is no global plan for the development of the city, so many projects arise spontaneously and do not take into account the interests of its residents.

Educational Attitudes of Preservice Teachers, or "Redesigning the Edsel" of Teacher Education.
Piel, John A.; Green, Michael
Two populations of undergraduate students (preservice elementary education majors and noneducation majors) were compared with respect to their attitudes toward learning in the content areas of history, literature, mathematics, reading, and science. The study attempted to answer the following questions: (1) To what extent are preservice elementary teachers interested in learning subject matter content? and (2) To what extent do they believe understanding these subject matter areas is an important educational goal? The Survey of Educational Attitudes was administered to all participants. Data suggest that education majors' attitudes reflect generalized ambivalence toward important subject areas taught in elementary school, with significantly more positive attitudes displayed toward reading and literature than toward science, mathematics, and history. In spite of highly visible recommendations for more extensive academic coursework, results indicate the impracticality of addressing teacher competence through added coursework before appropriate attitude adjustment processes have been planned and implemented.

Using large square pliers, a strip of sterling silver is bent into a square shape in preparation for soldering.
In this step, the frame is bent and tension used to hold the ends together for soldering.
On the firebrick, the "pallion" of solder is placed beneath the joint, then heated until the solder flows.
Using a file to clean and flatten the joint.
Using a piece of sandpaper, the frame is sanded perfectly flat. This will make it easier to solder to the backplate.
In this step, a texture hammer is used to give the backplate a shimmery texture.
After flattening the backplate, the fit is tested to make sure that there are no gaps.
More solder pallions are placed around the frame. Since the outer backplate will be cut off, the solder is placed on the outside. The piece is heated until the solder flows.
The backplate is trimmed with metal shears...not too close. The extra metal will be removed with a file.
The backplate is filed smooth using a #2 hand file, then filed smooth with a #4 file. It is then sanded smooth with fine sandpapers.
I created a swirl "bail" and soldered it to the top of the frame.
In a series of several steps, layers of resin and dried flowers are added to the frame.
In this slideshow, you can see the process of creating a sterling silver framed resin pendant.
I will be posting step-by-step tutorials on my site in early June.

Despite the beauty of Granby Gorge and the pleasure of swimming in its clear, cool waters, it makes sense to close the area to the public. It is a hazardous swimming hole. The rock cliffs rise as much as 35 feet above the water -- the east branch of the Salmon River -- and currents can be swift.
The gorge, once the site of a grist mill, is on 50 acres owned by William S. Hart of Farmington and, before him, by generations of his family. State statutes say that landowners who permit free access to their property cannot be held liable for accidents and need not warn people about dangers. Citing those laws, Northeast Utilities has left open the Tariffville Gorge, where 14-year-old Lydia Benitez of Hartford drowned recently. Little public interest has been shown in closing that area, which many people enjoy safely by staying out of the rushing water.

Fight nazis AND elder horrors at the same time!
Achtung! Cthulhu is many things, to many people. At it's heart, it's a mash-up of Lovecraftian horror and the more mundane, but no less horrific, evil of Nazi Germany and two-fisted World War II action. RPG maker Modiphius (who recently published the new Star Trek Adventures pen and paper RPG) published it as a roleplaying game first, then as a table-top miniatures game. And now, Modiphius has teamed with indie developer Auroch Digital to bring the setting to PC and consoles with Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics.
The strategy game will release this year - around September, according to the Kickstarter - and will feature a combat system themed around the battle between light and dark, good and evil. A momentum system sees successful actions build to powerful, one-shot effects, and it all combines to let players take on both faceless evils and and ordinary evils however they want.
"It's a real honor to work alongside Modiphius and Ripstone on what will be a premium Cthulhu-mashup," said Tomas Rawlings, Design Director at Auroch Digital. "Having worked with the team before back in the PlayStation 3 days, together we made amazing strategy games, and I'm confident history will repeat itself!"
The game is already fully funded by its publisher, but the Kickstarter is aimed around unlocking more content and features.
Sounds great!

Obama says he needs $100M of taxpayer money to go to Africa. But if he is going to take his mother-in-law and niece along, it should constitute as a family vacation and he fork over some of that dough.
In a move that can only fuel charges that his week-long trip to Africa is a de facto vacation, President Obama is taking his mother-in-law Marian Robinson and niece Leslie Robinson with him on Air Force One, which departed the United States this morning. Leslie is the daughter of First Lady Michelle Obama's brother Craig.
Obama is already being accompanied by Mrs. Obama and their daughters Sasha and Malia. It's not clear if other family members got aboard the presidential jet this morning. The press pool reporter, who eyed the Obama relatives, doesn't mention any.
The White House says the excursion is an important step toward building democracy and advancing U.S. strategic interests in Africa.

Dear Greenyes-ers –
This discussion has been a real eye opener for those of us
following recycling, but not involved in day-to-day market activity. Today's
Contra Costa Times ran a front page article called "Recycling in the
dumps" about the local impact of recycling commodities prices falling
(article included below).
This seems like a potential crisis for recycling and zero waste
if prices hold in the long term.
How are you talking about the future of recycling? What do you
expect the next year will bring, or is there any way to predict this? What
might it mean for potential growth in new recycling programs and new jobs in the
Thanks for your thoughts,

Recycling in the dumps
By Matthias Gafni
Contra Costa Times
Launched: 11/02/2008 09:15:25 PM PST
BENICIA -- As a forklift stacked two more bales of recycled newspaper on a
growing paper mountain, Steve Moore frantically searched for warehouse space to
store the suddenly worthless commodity.
The pile of paper — mostly from central Contra
Costa residents' recycling bins — represents an international problem
that could raise homeowners' garbage rates and dent the drive to cut waste sent
to landfills.
Moore's stack has reached its height limit at 16 feet
and 1,000 tons. He has squeezed a week's worth of paper into the shrinking open
space behind his Benicia recycling facility.
"Our forklifts can only go so high," he
said, only halfjoking.
Moore, Pacific Rim Recycling's owner, has taken the
unprecedented step of leasing two acres in Oakland to store some of Contra
Costa's recycled waste, and he is searching for more warehouse space.
He is not alone.
The dominos-like collapse of the housing, credit,
stock market and commodity collapses click-clacked into the recycling industry,
and it fell fast. In six weeks, the price for recycled cardboard has gone from
just under $200 a ton to $30 to $40 a ton — if you can find a buyer,
dealers say.
"This isn't volatility — this is the bottom
falling out," said Paul Morsen, executive director of Central Contra Costa
Solid Waste Authority, which contracts with Pacific Rim to take its
Recycling plants nationwide are debating whether to
charge disposal companies for the recycled goods that garbage companies bring
in. Most recyclers pay for the materials, then sell them for a profit.
If recyclers start charging, disposal companies likely
would raise garbage residential rates. With storage space dwindling and
material shelf life limited, it is possible that recycled materials will be
sent directly to landfills, which could violate state regulations and set back
green practices.
The global economic slowdown, particularly in China,
has tanked the market during a historically peak period — Halloween and
Christmas seasons. China, the largest consumer for West Coast recyclers, has almost
stopped buying paper and most other recyclables, industry analysts say,
creating a raw materials bottleneck.
In some instances, ships full of recycled materials
sit anchored off the Chinese coast with no buyers. In other cases, Chinese
buyers break contracts and force sellers into taking bargain-basement prices,
industry analysts and brokers said.
"The entire industry is upside down right
now," Moore said. "The question is how long people can hold on for or
will they have to close their doors."
Making green
Commodities recycling exploded as the world's economy
thrived a few years ago.
Recycling plants found endless customers who paid top
dollar for raw materials, particularly in booming Asian markets. The trade kept
waste out of landfills, increased efficiency and created a lucrative industry.
California mandated that municipalities divert half
their waste from landfills. Central Contra Costa's waste authority received a
cut of recycling proceeds — $2.33 million this past fiscal year. It used
the money for new recycling programs, such as a test of turning restaurant food
waste into electricity.
Pacific Rim receives 5,000 to 6,000 tons of recycled
materials a month, three-quarters of it paper products. Moore estimated that
earlier this year he could sell his materials for about $800,000 a month.
"The industry has enjoyed very good success the
last few years," he said.
About the only problem the industry had was a sharp
increase in metal thefts. Thieves have been stealing suddenly valuable metals
off just about anything, sometimes even war memorials and gravestones, to sell
as scrap.
Nine Dragons
When China opened its Nine Dragons paper mill in 1995,
recycled cardboard prices jumped within months from below $25 a ton to more
than $225 a ton. China is the No. 1 consumer of recycled fiber. Other Asian
countries, such as South Korea and Japan, used to purchase recyclables but now
buy internally. China, however, needs recycled paper because it has few forests
and its economy is based on exporting products that need packaging, said Brook
Edwards, author of The Brown Sheet, a paper recycling industry newsletter.
Typically, China buys the bulk of its paper from
October to December, to prepare packaging for all the toys, electronics and
other products exported for the holidays.
But as the world economy stiffened and China sold
fewer products, a backlog began. Normally, Chinese buyers could take out loans
to bridge the gap, but the credit crunch prevented that, said Bob Wallace of
WIH Resource Group, a Phoenix-based waste management, recycling and logistical
consulting firm.
Declining construction and car sales sent metal prices
plummeting, as steel was no longer in demand, he said.
China began playing hardball, Edwards said.
"They don't want to buy anything until they know
we're at a bottom," he said.
'Borderline illegal'
On Thursday, recycling broker Jim Fagelson was forced to drop the price of two
shipments of cardboard heading to China by $10 a ton, two weeks after it left
Los Angeles with a set agreement. Rather than argue the point with his Chinese
buyers and risk having the price drop to today's rate of about $80 a ton,
Fagelson reluctantly agreed to sell for $120 a ton.
"They kind of have you," said Fagelson, vice
president of Newport CF Intl., a Southern California recycling brokerage firm.
"It's truly unethical and borderline illegal. But to tackle it in the
courts and overseas isn't practical."
Taking advantage of the recycled materials glut,
Chinese buyers are wielding a powerful ax. Buyers will find a small mistake in
letters of credit and quote a lower price to brokers once shipments are halfway
across the Pacific Ocean. With few other options, most brokers are forced to
accept it, Fagelson said.
Some speculators shipped tons of scrap metal and
materials to China hoping to negotiate prices once there. This was not a
problem during the good days, but now ships full of recycled materials are
anchored off China's coast with no buyers.
"It's about as bad as I've seen it, and I've been
doing this my entire life," said Fagelson, a 35-year industry veteran.
The domestic market for recyclables is small and other
options have been exhausted, Edwards said. For instance, once the Chinese
market slowed, trains with Midwest recycled waste were diverted from Los
Angeles to Mexico. Now, Mexico is taking no more materials, he said.
Joe Recycled Sixpack pays
Moore needs a warehouse to keep his paper dry; waterlogged bales are useless.
Storage costs money.
"I'm losing a lot of money right now "... a
lot of money right now," he said.
Moore has some financial leeway, but he sayid that
smaller "scrappers" and other recycling plants, many of which can not
get credit, will shutter.
The facilities that stay open may have to pass costs
on to others.
Pacific Rim pays the Central Contra Costa waste agency
$30 a ton for recycled materials picked up from homes mostly along the
Interstate 680 corridor. That price fluctuates, but may flip Pacific Rim asks
the waste authority to pay to take the materials.
"That's a very serious concern of ours and we're
watching the market very closely, hoping it will loosen up," said Morsen,
the waste authority executive. "If it eats into the operational budget
then customers "... will wind up paying more."
Many recycling centers are renegotiating their
contracts with cities, said Wallace, who consults recycling facilities across
the country.
Green no more
If Moore cannot sell his materials, he may have to send recyclables to
landfills when he runs out of storage space.
That prospect does not make Morsen happy.
"In terms of a green approach, paper's very
recyclable. If you take something that good and such a rich commodity and stick
it in a landfill "... that would be a giant step back," he said.
It also might violate state law. The state requires
half of all waste from cities and counties to go somewhere other than into
landfills, with the percentage scheduled to rise in the next few years. The
state could fine non-complying cities or counties $10,000 a day.
"We will work with local jurisdictions to help
them be in compliance," said Beatriz Sandoval, a spokeswoman for the
state's Integrated Waste Management Board.
One benefit of the struggling economy is less waste,
which will make hitting diversion laws easier, she said. Nationwide, garbage is
down 10 percent to 40 percent in different regions, mostly due to declines in
housing and retail waste, Wallace said.
Still, East Coast and Canadian recycling centers have
started sending recycled materials to landfills, Moore said.

Subject: [GreenYes] Re: Markets Tanking
Importance: High
Hi David:
Ironically, we conducted a small-scale study on the subject
recently for a client and what our industry sources told us, specifically
commodity brokers (who are closest to the action – and whose well being
depend on making money of the commodities), is that they have not seen markets
this bad since 1972.
Further, they expect this to last at least 9 months and as long
as 3 years. They based this on the fact that China, one of the main
consumers of recycled paper, have warehouses full of raw material; have ships
floating at sea loaded with containers of raw materials; and finished roll
stock stacked in warehouses as well so they are backlogged on sales of finished
goods – backing up the entire supply chain. Our sources told us
that at best, if markets were corrected today, it would be at least six months
to eliminate the backlog of finished goods once orders were placed, shipping
commenced and the plants were back to 100% utilization of raw materials.
Sources also stated that mixed waste is nearing $ 0.00 value and
with the cost of curbside collection and processing the commingled materials,
it may start seeing the landfill for disposal instead of being stock piled for
later sale – something that will not bode well with many.

Subject: [GreenYes] Markets Tanking
Hey Folks-
I'd like to get a discussion started here about the state of the markets
and what others are seeing in their regions.
I don't know about any of you, but we are now dealing with a set of
commodities markets that have fallen through the floor. Cardboard has dropped
by more than 50%, office paper and commingled containers are way down, scrap
steel we are hearing has dropped by 80-90%. I'm planning on doing a
systematic call to all of our main markets to get a pulse and solid numbers
beginning next week.
This is an acute problem here in the Mid-Atlantic and obviously no one knows
how long we're going to be struggling with this situation. What it means
for my member companies is that they won't be seeing rebate checks for a
while and they may well start having to pay more for recycling services.
My biggest concern is for businesses just now trying to put programs in place.
They're going to take a look at the economic equation of shifting over to
recycling and have a hard time understanding why they should be recycling. In
the case of our big haulers its very likely that they're now going to be
uninterested in working with small and medium accounts to put recycling in
place — no doubt they are losing money on dumpster service systems where
they just charge a flat monthly fee for recycling.
I'm not panicking here. I understand that this is a long-term game.
We've seen this before in the early 90s. I'm going to be working on
getting the word out to the business community on the need to do proper
long-term economic analysis and to work things through on a group level
(we've formed a partnership with IRN and are offering cooperative
marketing services now to our members).
This is potentially very serious, though. The zest for "green
programs" is meeting the realities of the market economy and I dare say
folks are going to lose interest at least in recycling if we don't figure
out how to help them properly. We've come too far to let things slip like
they did in the 90s.
Any thoughts?

the following is an After Action Report for full throttle mission that took place on 2017-09-20
# of 32nd Ranger units in attendance: 11
# of 72nd Airborne units in attendance: 6
Total number of units in attendance: 17
Overview of missions conducted:
- conduct mounted and dismounted patrols (completed)
- locate and eliminate two weapon caches ( 1/2 destroyed)
- react to indirect fire (completed)
- assault mortar position (not completed)
- comms were clean, clear, and precise
- units maintained formation and conducted room clearing from a mounted start
- air assets were requested and utilized efficiently and effectively
- units spent too much time at defensive position
- once contacted, units spent too much time in the kill zone
- units were left in a firefight after a retreat was called, then were later picked up
Bugs, issues, etc:
- Zeus crashed on multiple occasions while looking in map and building missions
- units became uneditable while in zeus, ( problem was resolved)
- server doesn't show up on search list, players needed to direct connect
- gates continue to decapitate allied vehicles
personal comments:
I feel that the units that were on did an excellent job adjusting to an environment without leadership present. online members of the command staff, squad leaders, and pilot staff quickly decided what map to operate on ( full throttle wasn't showing up but we did use the mission on the operations server). after a while we were ready to operate and everyone was able to accomplish their missions effectively. we can get better in a few aspects but overall I am impressed.

Anyone who is interested in private jet rentals will first need to think about how much doing so will cost and what other things to consider before making any final decisions. There is no doubt that an increasing number of people have decided to fly on private jets because of the comfort and privacy which they offer. If you fly for business reasons often, you might just find that choosing a private jet will be a great idea because of all the room and how comfortable they are in general. Private jets are usually better and more spacious than any commercial flight you can get tickets for.

New Day aims to tackle numeracy
THE LEADERSHIP of New Day Primary and Junior High School, St Andrew, has said intervention strategies to improve literacy and numeracy at the institution are bearing fruit, and expressed confidence that the Education Ministry's literacy target will be met.
The national target for literacy is 100 per cent and 85 per cent for numeracy, at the primary level by 2015.
"We believe that we are going to get that. Numeracy is lagging behind, but we have put some interventions in place to see if we can boost the numeracy scores. Overall, the attitude of both teacher and students towards academics has been tremendous," Garfield McDonald, principal of the institution, said.
He said the institution's literacy programme is not to be regarded as a special programme, but the teachers ensure that there is always an emphasis on reading.
"We are doing well in academics (generally). In fact, our literacy rate is 81 per cent," the principal noted, adding that for numeracy, the school operates an after-school programme, which is supported by mathematics specialists from Hillel Academy and the ministry.
"We, as a school, have put the target up, emphasising the important goal... and we believe that we can get it with the work that the teachers are doing," McDonald said.
The principal is also reporting success with its "mixed ability class" strategy, whereby students of different academic achievement levels are placed in the same classroom setting and allowed to interact. "What we usually would have done is to group the students, but now we have a mixed ability (setting) because we feel that the students should play a part in helping each other in the classroom, and we see where this is working, whereby the teacher is teaching and the stronger ones are helping the weaker ones," he explained.
There are also plans to train teachers in numeracy and to educate parents to enable them to better support their children.
New Day is also now benefiting from a project geared at equipping teachers with a better understanding of children's personalities and attitudes. The project, the Students' Temperament Programme, is being implemented under the guidance of the University of the West Indies School of Education.
"They are teaching teachers and parents about children's temperament as it relates to behaviour: how do you deal with the grumpy child, the friendly child, as against the one that always wants to help the teacher? So, by understanding their temperament, we are able to deal with them in the classroom setting," the principal said.

Brief Information on the Games Played in a Casino
Casino is a very popular place to stay at, especially if you are into playing a lot of games which involve money in it, as well as creating a source of income. But also, people do lose money in a casino. Now, that is something different from our main topic. In today's discussion, we will talk about the different games that you get to play in a casino to enjoy yourself.
The list of games available at a casino
Following are the list of games which are available in a casino:
- Poker: The most common and a high trending game is poker88. As you know, people are crazy about this game and it all revolves around a game which is based on 5 cards in hand.
- Craps: One of the biggest games available which involves dices. Dice, numbers and betting are all the factors on which this game depends. This games involves a lot of energy and is a must try for casino
- Black Jack (21): Yet again, a very attractive and highly trending card game available to play. The reason why the number 21 comes is that, when the game is played between the player and the house, the player has to go as close as 21 to achieve success.
- Slots: The game of numbers! Played in a machine, this is one of the biggest games available which involves highly on numbers and their corresponding betting. You spin the wheel and win or lose.
- Roulette: The game of playing with chips. You basically buy the chips which cost a certain amount of money and then place your luck at certain numbers to win your chance or to lose your chance.
- Pai Gow Poker: 'Almost' similar to the normal game of poker, this game differentiates from the original poker game, in 'mainly' one point. This one point is that, this game is played against the house rather than playing against other players.
- Keno: This is a game of lottery. You have numbers displayed from 1 to 80, out of which you have to choose 20 numbers and places your wages. Once the announcement of the numbers starts, the more your selected numbers match, the more you have your chances of winning the wages.
- Wheel of Fortune (The Big Six): The game of spinning the wheel and winning your money. Out of the 6 symbols, place your bid on your symbol and have a chance to win if the wheel comes to stop in that symbol.
- Baccarat: This is again another game which is based on cards. Every player in this game gets three options to choose from, which are, The Banker, The Player and The Tie. Then you place your bids and get a chance of winning according to the rules.
- Bingo: A game involving concepts of mathematics, theoretically! You have certain numbers and you have matrix of dimension 5×5 based on B-I-N-G-O. then you try to match your numbers randomly, according to the numbers, which you have on your card.
These were basically one of the biggest and the most popular games you can have in a casino.
If you look at the scope, the scope present in a casino is huge and wide. So, if you are planning to play in a casino, you really have a lot of options. But, do know every game you want to play and know the rules and regulation properly, to avoid any unwanted loss.

Selling hotel rooms as a profession can be somewhat overwhelming for this newest generation. Those of us who made a career out of it might forget the uneasiness when first seeking commitments involving thousands and thousands of dollars, facing formidable competition, building instant credibility, and having to work so hard to be taken seriously.
Experience is great because with it comes perspective - - something very difficult to have when just getting started. With time it becomes clear that selling hotel rooms is not rocket science. Individuals perform very similar tasks and follow similar step-by-step processes in any number of professions today. Allow me to share just one example.
A young, intrepid TV reporter called one morning recently to ask if she and her crew could come out to my office to film an interview with me for a story the station planned to air that night regarding a power struggle between a luxury resort operator and the owner.
Prior to my career in the hospitality industry, I was a news co-anchor for a CBS-TV affiliate in Fresno, CA - - there's never been a microphone or a camera I didn't love and so, of course, I agreed quickly.
Finding the right sources is critical. Why did the reporter call me? Good question. Actually, I was the second choice. My colleague Jerry Morrison was her first choice, but Jerry had a schedule conflict and recommended me to the reporter. Why would the reporter want to interview a hotel consultant for a local resort dispute related story? The story needed credibility - - also insight, opinion and historical background information, much like what an expert witness provides in litigation matters.
In covering a story, journalists need to dig beyond the principals - - in this case, that would be the operators of the resort and the owners of the resort. Industry-and-current-market-conditions-knowledge provided by an impartial hotel consultant familiar with the resort would help the viewing audience's interest in and acceptance of the story.
Being proactive. No TV reporter would last very long on the job if he or she sat around waiting for good stories to simply appear. The same holds true with hotel sales pros. The good ones believe in prospecting, no matter what level of experience or pay level. They look for leads everywhere - - online, local newspapers, digging up old or even dead files, drilling into existing accounts, and finding new referrals by leveraging strong, loyal client relationships.
Getting the right information, making sure it's right. This approach is no different than what hotel sales pros do every day in pursuit of group conventions, corporate meetings or incentive trips. Assuming that quality market intelligence is available and utilized (e.g., Internet resources, directories, group/contact databases providing name of group, primary contact, group profile, and preferences), the hotel sales pro searches for confirmation of available facts with parties other than the primary contact - - who may not be available or may be reluctant to share information, especially so to someone with whom a professional relationship has yet to be established.
What parties might that be? A good place to start would be with what we call the gatekeeper, an administrative assistant or someone working directly with and/or under the primary contact. Others might include a contact within the hotel at which the group last met, an attendee, a speaker or possibly a supplier who exhibited or who sponsored a particular event.
Another valuable party with whom to speak - - maybe later on in the selling process - - would be someone within the group's organization who might have the ability to influence a final decision. This individual might be someone on the group's board of directors or advisory board. It might be a local chapter president or the manager of a company's local or regional office.
Getting back to the importance of the credibility issue, the sales pro would search for someone with existing credibility with the group's primary contact - - could be a testimonial from a satisfied client representing the same or a complementary industry or profession; a relevant testimonial taken from a respected social media or Blog.
Face-to-face, in-person advantages. The TV reporter called to make an appointment because she knew that putting a credible hotel industry source on camera would strengthen the story. E-mailing, texting or telephoning me would not have been as effective as a face-to-face meeting and interview put on film.
The sales pro faces a similar situation in pursuing a valuable piece of business. If afforded an opportunity, he or she might ask, "Will I increase my chances for success by meeting face-to-face with either the decision maker and/or the decision influencer"?
A sense of urgency. The TV reporter had to work fast to set up the interview, travel to the interviewee, get the interview "in the can" so that the piece could be ready for that evening's newscast. The hotel sales pro must work proactively making an appointment, physically going to the source's office or home, meeting live and in-person. There is never a better time than "now" to get in front of a decision maker or anyone who has influence on and/or insight into the decision making process. E-mailing and texting should only be used when and if the prospect has indicated a preference for that communication form.
Connecting with the source. The TV reporter did an excellent job at putting me at ease from the moment she and her crew arrived. She complimented our home and my office and the family photos and told me that she had already visited my website and even asked a good question about one of my published articles. She asked if I had ever been interviewed on camera before and was delighted to learn about my previous life as a TV news reporter. She then carefully explained how the interview would work, what type of questions she might be asking and where I should look when responding. We had connected and I was prepared and comfortable for "cameras rolling!"
The TV reporter accepted me as a valuable resource to her story because Jerry Morrison had recommended me strongly and Jerry was already a very well established hotel expert throughout the San Diego news media. Just as the TV reporter did with me, the hotel sales pro can also use timeless selling tools and good basic people skills to connect quickly and effectively. Background information on the individual and the group is so critical for the connecting process. The really good hotel sales pros learn all they can prior to making initial contact. Knowing in advance the position the prospect holds, the business that particular company or association is in, and where and when they meet, can be extremely important to any hotel sales pro attempting to connect. If the initial contact happens to be face-to-face, typically in the prospect's office, commenting on something noticeable - - photos, hobbies, awards, recognition, and organization memberships - - is extremely helpful in the connecting process.
Having a plan. The TV reporter had a plan for what she needed before my leaving my office. She had questions prepared - - either scripted or memorized - - that she planned to ask and she needed to be sure that the filmed interview was "in the can" and would be of broadcast quality. No difference there from what the hotel sales pro plans beforehand. The hotel sales pro does not want to leave without determining how serious the organization is about holding that particular meeting, what other hotels and destinations are under serious consideration, if any, who will be making the final decision, when is the final decision date and, hopefully, holding tentative dates - - or even better, with a strong verbal commitment.
Listening. The TV reporter needed to observe and listen throughout the entire interview - - before, during and after - - in hopes of picking up on anything that could lead to a question she had not planned to ask and/or a possible new story angle to file away for future reference. The same holds true for the hotel sales pro during the prospect interaction. There could very well be a new question in need of answering, a new contact within the organization - - perhaps even the same building - - or even the possibility of getting a lead on an altogether different meeting or meetings.
Follow up. Finally, the TV reporter hurried back to the station to work on additional research, updating, verifying time allocated, preparing the live intro, recording the voice over, and making sure the visual and the voice are in synch. The hotel sales pro would need to fine tune the proposal and/or contract, possibly add value wherever possible, spell-check, read again, and then distribute the document overnight, via e-mail attachment, by regular mail or - - best of all - - hand deliver in person.
The TV reporter's goal is to get the story right and to make sure what airs that night is of the highest quality, that it's both accurate and fair. The hotel sales pro's goal is to follow a process that will lead to closing the piece of business. Different disciplines, yes, but with very similar M.O's.
As the crew prepared to leave, the reporter complimented me on how well I had done. Mindful of how soft my consulting business has been, I jumped quickly at the opportunity. "Any chance of my filling in as a news anchor summer replacement?" I said with a smile. "Oh, no," she replied. "You wouldn't want to give up your important job. I was going to ask you if you knew of any openings for me in the hotel business." Ah, yes, a sign of the times.

Merck's Efficiency Supplies enterprise develops excessive-tech solutions for the automotive industry. In addition, as I've identified, the "FEATURED MERCHANDISE" is dated May 23, 2008. I guess having that up for 5 MONTHS straight (when there have been different Obama or Biden whoppers since) can also be your idea of "truthful and balanced"? When McCain-Palin win, I simply hope you all keep in mind there is not any excuse you possibly can pin it on! I additionally pray there aren't any race riots. Re "regardless of that," once more, it is irrelevant to the first finding. The phrase "regardless of that" right here refers to the fact that the firing of Monegan was legal, no matter whether it was for personal reasons.
It's as if you were convicted of drug possession, and then later acquitted of stealing a car, and the police report says something like, "regardless of his drug habit, JakeD did not break the legislation in taking his wife's automobile for a spin." The drug conviction nonetheless stands. We offer our shoppers excellence in improvement and integration of techniques and attributes for complete automobiles. This consists of world class manufacturing engineering and enterprise improvement. With profound abilities we provide help to develop and integrate techniques like physique, chassi and interior to complete automobiles. To shorten growth time we utilize the most recent CAE methods and technologies.
JakeD says that "it is an ethics situation only." Properly, garsh darnit and golly gee wiz, where I come from, we contemplate ethics in a VP candidate pretty darn important. She continues to disappoint Alaskans. Due to this fact, Ms Palin's brother in law was not following Ms Palen's judgment of moral conduct through the use of the taser on her nephew. However, she was unethical to use her postion as Governor of Alaska to power Mr Monegan to fireside her Brother in Law.
Governor Palin did not fire or rent a state trooper – you aren't a voter, are you – if that's the case, please attempt reading the actual Report. Hey Jake-six pack what do you think about Palin's reference to the extremists in Alaska. Man oh man, if that was Obama you would be asking for his head. Oh jake – one more factor. Not a damn factor flawed with Bill Clinton giving Hillary advise? No less than when Clinton left the office he left the USA with a surplus of funds. And your Texas boy shall be leaving us in debt.
Palin's legal professional's reply is rather more honest that Governor Palin herself. Her legal professional at least acknowledges that the report found she violated the ethics legislation. On the other hand, Gov. Palin herself has repeatedly claimed not simply that the report is faulty or biased, however that the report says simply the opposite of what it really does say. Due to this fact, she is a liar. Whether or not a non-monetary achieve could be sufficient to represent an ethics violation (as the legal professional's reponse argues it isn't) is not even related to this discussion.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is set just before the events of A New Hope and really close to the animated series Star Wars Rebels. In that animated series, we've seen the burgeoning Rebel Alliance look outside the box for new resources to fight the Empire. Case in point: We watched Hera Syndulla test the B-wing and deem it acceptable and advantageous for the Rebellion to use.
The rebels have to try new vehicles to go toe to toe with Imperials, so it's no surprise that Rogue One will introduce some fresh designs. One of the new ships was just revealed on The Star Wars Show. Behold, the U-wing in a never before seen still from the next Star Wars film:
Huzzah more alphabet ships! And it's not just new to Rogue One, it's new to the Star Wars universe.
Officially called the Incom UT-60D, the U-wing is both fighter and transport. Lucasfilm Story Group Executive Matt Martin explained on The Star Wars Show (the U-wing is revealed at 1:23 in the above video), "It's a troop transport and gun ship, so it's there to bring in rebel troops to heavy fire zones and get out as quickly as possible," he said. "The wings move depending on the situation, and it's there to both drop off troops and provide air support."
And this actually isn't the first time we've seen it. "It was sort of secretly unveiled last year at Star Wars Celebration Anaheim where the very first piece of Rogue One concept art is actually showing a U-wing dropping off troops," Martin said.
What do you think of the U-wing? What other alphabet ships do you hope to see in the galaxy far, far away? Share your thoughts (and maybe sketches?) in the comments.
Check out some Rogue One costumes we learned about at Comic-Con:
