Strengthening Aboriginal child development in central Australia through a universal preschool readiness program
Bonita Moss
Helen Harper
Sven Silburn
Menzies School of Health Research
This paper examines a recent example of a transition-to-preschool program in regional Australia. The program is significant in linking Aboriginal child health and early childhood learning services. The discussion is drawn from a mixed method evaluation undertaken at the end of the program's first two years of funding. Evaluation findings suggest that many barriers to participation in early childhood learning programs for Aboriginal children can be reduced with responsive support. The study points to the need for funding for innovations to be seen as an essential investment, not an unwanted cost.

"Why Do Supermarkets Discount The Discounts By Hiding Them"
OK, it's 2016 and the world seems centered on hot prices. Ahead of most everything important in food retail the customer wants a hot price. With red arrows on each web site example we will illustrate where the weekly ad is. You can ask yourself with all of the money a great ad costs isn't it hidden?
Seriously.....So Where Are The Hot Prices? The Ad?
While as Marketing professionals our goal remains building brand & creating well defined reasoning for customer loyalty, price and item will always represent what is the value proposition.
We Do That Best Through The Circular....When You Can Actually Find It!
So while we take a look at a few of the supermarket retailers web sites, lets try to find the ad.
Understanding The Customer Goes To The Web For Information....
Where Is It?
Regardless of the retail space your best customers go online for information. Supermarkets must have a great story to tell. The circular is an invitation to shop and in the process to tell the all important retail story.
While Far From Perfect In It's Presentation.....
Giant Eagle Customers Will Find The Ad!
The circular is the ultimate call to action. The circular is snail mailed, e-mailed, almost handed to you as you enter the supermarket or used to lure the customer within an e-mail blast with ancillary items to intrigue and have the customer click through to the circular.
Hours upon hours are spent each week to follow the agreed upon item mix and retail brand direction. The branding approach has been designated, quarterly ad meetings have taken place to pick the exact sales approach around which all of the merchandisers will choose the best of class items to execute this sale.
Accounting has approved what the markdown costs will be and we have all agreed on the gross this ad week will break. So all in all we have spent hundreds of hours to develop this circular or most importantly the retailers call to action.
We are all set to go. We are going to crush the competition right?.....
Oops, I think not!
The web designer an important part of the team who often answers to others and not the merchandisers has created this great new web site.
Just One Problem....Where The Heck Is The Ad?
Tens of thousands of dollars have been spent in man hours, branding & its resulting emotions, markdowns, color schemes, etc, etc. and the ad got buried.
While overall everything looks fine online once you enter the supermarket retailers web site one of the most difficult things to find is the circular.
So What Have We All Accomplished? Why All Of The Effort?
What is the emphasis that drives supermarket retail sales?
When we have all agreed the circular is not only relevant but drives sales, let it do the driving! Don't hide the circular. Let the customer find the circular, understand your story with your specials and allow this now well branded value proposition to condition the customer with a defined emotion to look further as to what your food retail organization does well.
Lets Not Forget Why The Customer Most Likely Visited The Site!
Allow the customer to find the sales information deriving the comfort zone to order the catering, specialty baskets etc. after becoming a regular customer.
When we block the customers immediate access to circular information we raise the barrier of entry for retail sales and ultimately restrict retail sales growth.
In essence we have given away the gross in the ad to the customer who was going to shop the supermarket anyway!
The very sales growth we all worked so hard for and the return on investment we have budgeted so long for was thwarted by becoming a low level priority online.
Ask the customer for the sale, you have worked hard for it.
Thank-you for all of you ideas and support.

A fully integrated solution.
At Balyo, we believe that technology should adapt to the client, not vice versa. That's why we have designed a solution to completely integrate into your environment.
Much more than robotic trucks, we deploy a complete architecture, adapted to the specific requirements of each client.
At the heart of the solution, the "Robot Manager" software monitors and co-ordinates the fleets of robots. As the nexus of the solution, it enables your machines, IT systems and infrastructure to communicate in real time with the autonomous material handling trucks:
To build this architecture, we install COMBOX communication modules, which perform several functions:
- COMBOX Wifi/WMN/Radio, to ensure communication between Robot Manager and your robots.
- COMBOX I/O ensures communication between your machines/infrastructure and your robots.
- COMBOX 3 buttons, acting as an on-demand call button, so an operator can call a robot by pressing one of the buttons.
Graphical User Interface
"Robot Manager" provides clients with a real-time view of the entire circuit, and statuses and reports for missions, robots and communication modules.
Diagnostic Tool
"Robot Manager" provides clients with a complete statistical analysis of the installation based on the collection of data related to robot performance.
How do you assign a task to a robot?
For greater flexibility, the Balyo solution enables you to trigger a robot mission in a number of ways:
- ERP/WMS: if you use these systems, your production or warehouse management software sends a direct message to Robot Manager, which assigns a mission to the robot. E.g.: prepare a shipping area, store a specific type of pallet, etc.
- Sensors or Reports: sensors on your infrastructure or machines report the presence/absence of a pallet and trigger a robot mission. E.g.: supplying or emptying a production line.
- Call Button: just pressing one of the buttons on our dedicated COMBOX tells the robot to perform a preconfigured task. E.g.: send a recently-prepared pallet to the shipping platforms.
- Robot Manager / IHM: you can directly trigger missions on the Robot Manager or Robot screens.
- Scanning Area: this function involves a robot using its front safety laser to scan a floor storage area. It then detects whether any free spaces are available for a pallet.
What does this mean for you?

Go to the link http://www.kansascitygaragedoorrepairs.com/ to get more information about garage door and garage door services.
Garage doors are very easy to fix, however additionally prone to great deals of unpleasant things as these are possibly one of the most ignored home attributes, and also no one really cares until the door really gives an actual difficulty. One of the most typical trouble with garage doors is the springs involved in opening and closing of the doors. These springs play the pivotal duty in raising hefty doors, so these are undoubtedly under incredible stress. The majority of the issues connected with garage doors in Melbourne are related to torsion spring system, which provides great deals of a problem lately.
Overhead garage door repair work
When your garage door starts breaking down, it's actually telling you to offer some time to give adequate focus on it. Prior to it goes worst, try utilizing simple techniques such as take a look at the rollers and also tracks and if needed, smear it with a great quantity of lubes. Most of the garage door openers in Melbourne experience loud as well as obstructive functioning, which can be quickly repaired with regular upkeep as well as replacement of a couple of components.
The springs are the most important part of the door. Steels are vulnerable to exhaustion, it goes without saying, if you don't pay suitable focus on the upkeep, it will separate at some point. With broken springs, you can raise the door, albeit with a severe problem.
Important ideas for keeping garage doors
Cold weather is not a good thing for your garage door since it ices up the opening and also causes power loss. If your door is not as well old (less than 20 years), it has a pressure modifications for increasing and also reducing. Check the modification setups as well as preserve it on a regular basis for lasting functioning.
The older garage doors Mornington are most likely making with timber, which is extremely prone to drooping over the duration of years. If your door is saggy, make use of a tension pole to be positioned diagonally from top to bottom corners. It will be tightened up the door and align it.
The majority of doors have 2 level restrictions that move out from the focal point of the entrance right into areas beside the door in the entrance track, efficiently safeguarding the entryway. After a long time, these bars can relocate somewhat out of setting so they disappear effectively adapted to the locking spaces.
To straighten the bars, loosen the aide sections on the edges of the entryway so they are sufficiently free to move, and afterward reposition them to make sure that they quickly control the locking bars into the locking openings. Oil up the lock system with equipment oil as well as you solve the problem.
Safety and security ideas throughout DIY garage door fixing
Position your ladder sideways of the spring closes so you never encounter the springs straight while those are winding or chilling out.
Keep switch off your major power as well as lock it in the reduced setting, especially when you are winding the springs.
It is essential to use proper gear such as eye defense as well as handwear covers while servicing different ways to repair a garage door.
While unclamping and also examining the equilibrium of your door, do not depend on your ladder.

Sign Language
I was speaking with one of my colleagues this afternoon about a couple of my students. Some of them are having such a hard time, yet there's no support for those with learning disabilities (or worse) in this country. Our school is too young to have a program to support them which means that it is up to the individual teachers to try and find a way to support these students.
As the discussion progressed, we began talking about my colleague's husband's work. He works with an NGO (Non-Government Organization) in Mongolia. I'm not exactly sure what he does (he seems to have quite a few different areas that he works in) but we began talking about his work with the Mongolian deaf population. I've noticed both here and in Korea that there is a lot of sign language happening around town. In Korea I just chalked it up to a larger population than what I'm used to, but here it just seemed a bit odd.
I've always had a passion for sign language and the Deaf community. I first learned to sign the alphabet when I was a Brownie. I wrote a paper on the Deaf community in my first year of university and took two sign language courses during my university career. I wrote my fourth year these on the Deaf community and their reaction to cochlear implants. For some reason I have this feeling of being connected to the deaf. I don't know how or when, but I feel like at some point in my life that I will need to know about this language and this population.
(*Part of my passion may be linked back to a child that I met when I was a co-op student at an outdoor education center. This child was basically deaf, but had hearing aids in both his ears. He was from downtown Toronto and came from a home where his parents refused to acknowledge that he had any kind of hearing problems. They refused to learn sign language and did not help him to learn how to cope and flourish with his disability. It broke my heart. He was so excited that I knew how to sign a few words.*)
My colleague informed me that in Mongolia the high deaf population is due to ear infections that are not treated properly when people are young. Children with ear infections here will apparently often have their ears (ear drums) popped by the doctor to release the fluid. Over-medication combined with the practice of popping the ear drums causes deafness amongst a large majority of the Mongolian population. Now, this is not to say that everyone walking around Mongolia, or Ulaanbaatar for that matter is deaf. But, I do find that there are a lot more people signing than what I would see in my hometown.
And, like so many people with disabilities living in developing countries, life is hard for the deaf in Mongolia. In many cases they are unemployable. There are so many people here who don't have jobs that giving a job to someone who can't hear seems a bit silly. They are laughed at and bullied. They are taken advantage of. Again, this is not to say that all Mongolians treat the deaf like this, but apparently it happens frequently. And so my heart goes out to them. Had I know about my colleague's husband's involvment with the Mongolian deaf culture earlier, I would have tried to become involved. Unfortunately, with only a few months left it's too late to commit to people without being able to follow through on that commitment.
I'll finish this post with some news. We have officially decided to head home after this year. It's been a hard year, but a good one nonetheless. I know that I've grown as a teacher. I love my kids (they make me laugh daily!) and it will be hard to say good bye, but it's the best decision for Jeff and I for now. We plan on taking a couple of months to travel around South East Asia before we head home.
One Response to "Sign Language"
I can't believe it's already been a year! Time flies.

Time: 7pm - 8.30pm
Venue: Studio, The Market Place & Arts Centre, Armagh
Tickets: £9 | Book now
With Jane Cassidy & Maurice Leyden
'The man from God knows where' was a figure of mystery and awe to the tenant farmers of Ulster in the 1790s. Today many still know Florence Wilson's poem, but few could tell you his name. Thomas Russell, soldier, revolutionary and first librarian of the Linen Hall Library, played a major part in the Irish Risings of 1798 and 1803. Folk-singers, writers & broadcasters, Jane Cassidy and Maurice Leyden, tell the story of this remarkable man, through eye-witness accounts of his life and times, extracts from Russell's diary, woven together with local traditional songs, expressing the drama and pathos of that 'time of the hurry', when Protestant, Catholic and Dissenter combined to fight for a reform of parliamentary representation.

"What do I do if my ex is about to leave the state to avoid paying alimony or child support?" This is a question many have once their support order is entered and they want to make sure the party ordered to pay does not skip town to avoid paying. Florida law provides a remedy in this situation.
If a party ordered to pay support intends on leaving the state to conceal his or her whereabouts or intends on transferring assets out of state to conceal them, the other party can apply to the court for what is known as a writ ne exeat. This operates essentially as a warrant in that the Florida Crime Information Center telecommunications system is notified so that law enforcement detains the party/takes him/her into custody and prevents the party from leaving the state.
The person detained can have the writ removed by paying what is called a purge payment. This is an amount that is usually significant enough to cover what is owed and/or to secure future payment. Unless payment is made, exit from Florida will be difficult.
If you have a writ entered against you and need assistance having it removed, or you need a writ against someone who is trying to avoid paying you, it is best to have a family law attorney assist you since there are technical requirements that must be met to get relief.

I've spent most of my life afraid. At times I would go as far as saying that fear was a lover I never wanted but could not stop returning to; we were/are intimately intertwined. I don't think most people who meet me would believe this about me since I am a fairly successful american male. To admit that most of my life was spent living in fear is counter-intuitive to how success is perceived in our minds. One can not be deemed successful and afraid at the same time; they are seen as mutually exclusive.
So how did fear and I become so close? Well, we met when I was a child. I was abused from a very young age (not by my parents so please withhold your judgment of my family, thanks) so much of my childhood revolved around being afraid of what was coming next. I rarely identify with being a victim; it was never a word I wanted to associate with but to not own that part of my story would be dishonest to who I am today. Physical abuse paved the way for constant nightmares which I equate to mental and emotional abuse and these became the start of my relationship with fear. Together we existed during the formative years of my life and fear influenced the way I saw the world and developed as a man.
What I found to be ironic about my life is that it is possible to be internally afraid yet outwardly fearless. This was me. Internally I was wrought with anxiety about life. I was afraid to be real, to be myself, to do the things I felt passionate about. Externally I lived without reservation. There wasn't a drug or drink I didn't like and a punch I wasn't willing to take and return. For me, faking fearlessness was me hoping it would kill me so I no longer had to run from all of the things I was afraid of.
In time I learned to work through all of those things. I have become much more transparent with my life and a lot less self-destructive. All of those experiences contributed to who I am today; they have helped me relate to others in a way that only shared experiences can but I am reminded constantly that though I have matured, I don't know that I have become less afraid. Fear is still my seductive mistress, just in new and different ways.
When I take inventory of my life I have a lot to be proud of and it has been an amazing ride thus far. I have seen so much of the world. I have met extraordinary people who given of their lives to help get me to the next place. My needs are met and in such a way that I get to help meet the needs of others. Suffice to say, I have an extremely fulfilled life. But there is a whole other aspect that I constantly think about and these are the hard things to be honest about; The things that fear has stopped me from accomplishing. Most days I feel incapable of loving someone long term and selflessly so I have avoided the thought of marriage. I fear failure so deeply that I have taken minimized risks in my career in exchange for a steady paycheck. I, at times, excessively give my time and money out of fear of not belonging in community and spending life alone. Failure, insignificance, loneliness, love… these are the things I still fear.
Fear is my pimp and I am it's whore. It tells me where to go and what to do and the currency exchanged is my life.
We are all in this same place but arrived from different paths. Afraid to live life to the fullest because it may cost us something or someone, that it may reveal something about ourselves that we don't want the world to see. We run, we hide and we end up trading who we are on account of fear.
What would life look like if we took back control? If we were not afraid to run full force into what we deeply feel our purpose is. To be unashamed to love unconditionally and wholeheartedly the people around us instead of loving the balance of our bank accounts. To speak honestly about all that is inside us without worrying if everyone will accept our brokenness. To not care if the picture is perfectly framed, the words are inspiring enough, the lines are drawn flawlessly, your body is sculpted in all of the right places, if the post got enough likes or if all of the wrong people want you around.
We all need to stop being whores and say fuck fear. Death gets closer each day; we have a finite existence. Live your life! The life you were created to live. The one deep inside of you. The one you are afraid of. It is imperfect to the rest of the world and that is ok because it is perfect for you. Don't pursue it alone. Welcome others on the journey and help them do the same. Leave your mark and inspire people to be honest about who they are. A fulfilled life is one that is lived in the light and not hiding in the shadows. It is one of boldness and transparency and imperfection. We are all perfectly imperfect.

W Connection Start Defence Against Big 6 Winners
Defending Champions W Connection will open the 2006 season against last season's Lucozade Sport big 6 winners United Petrotrin.
In years gone by the 'Savonetta Boys' may have considered this clash a walk in the park—but Petrotrin have displayed last season, they were rounding off in a decent looking outfit and coach Brian Williams fresh from winning the 2005 'Coach of the Year' award is promising this season his troops will be even better prepared.
So it can prove to be a dicey first encounter for the powerful 'Savonetta Boys' at the Ato Boldon Stadium.
Connection's biggest challenge will be the fact that this year they will be without undoubtedly their most influential player in Brazilian Gefferson Goulart—and this year they will be fielding a number of the young players who have come up through the ranks, and its just a matter of time to see how this new look team will perform.
This year, the likes of Shane Calderdon, Lyndon Diaz, Nickcolson Thomas, Andrei Pacheco, Dwight Scott and Clyde Leon will all be under the microscope as they seek to live up to the high standards W Connection have set.
Starworld Challenge the Might of Jabloteh
Starworld Strikers have made a return this season to the T&T Pro League and they will face what will be a tough re-introduction to life in the Pro League when they face last season's Pro Bowl and F.A. Cup Champions San Juan Jabloteh.
Jabloteh is boasting of fielding a 100% local outfit—and this year they will be led on the field by newly appointed skipper Kerry Baptiste.
Former national midfielder Angus Eve has graciously bowed out and will be now coaching Jabloteh's under 16 team.
The Jabloteh attack looks strong on paper, as they have signed national striker Anthony Wolfe, and also has a young talent in Jason Marcano as well as experienced striker Peter Prosper.
Starworld will have their work cut out for them—the question is- Can the San Fernando based club take up from where they left off when they last played in the League?
Caledonia Take Aim At The Army
Caledonia AIA and Defence force may be very well starting on the same footing.
These two teams have been the most inconsistent teams in local professional football over the last few season—one day producing good football and the other day they will look flat.
Caledonia however, will be coming this year with a level of confidence based on their 3rd place finish last season—the Jamal Shabbazz coached outfit will be aiming to possibly better their standings this season and what better way with a good start against Defence Force.
But this encounter can go anyway—as Defence Force is promising this season they will be coming with a renewed sense of purpose.
Can Devon Jorsling, Kevon Carter, Cory Rivers, Anton Pierre and Odelle Armstrong gel as a unit and get results this year?
Tobago United vs Superstar Rangers
The boys from the sister isle will have one thing on their mind—avoid relegation.
Tobago United have escaped the prospect of being demoted for the last 3 seasons, having finished at the bottom of the standings—but this year with the promotion-relegation system firmly in place Peter Granville's forces will be hoping to get off to a good start against the newcomers Superstar Rangers.
Coach Granville is giving a guarantee that teams coming to Tobago will have a serious fight on their hands to leave with points—so it may not be easy for Superstar Rangers in their very first season in the Pro League to take something away from the game.
Come what may it will be an interest filled encounter with these two teams trying to establish an advantage from early.
Joe Public Makes a Trip to Sangre Grande
This clash is an Eastern Derby—as it brings together the 'Eastern Lions Joe Public and the boys from Sangre Grande, North East Stars.
Joe Public comes back into the Pro League this year with a lot to prove—Can they continue to dominate in the way they did at the Super League?
Confident coach Michael Mc Commie is not worried about his team making the transition and believes, his forces have what it takes to not only challenge, but also topple the best of the Pro League.
It won't be an easy task however, to head up to the Sangre Grande Recreation ground to play former League Champions North East Stars in their very own back yard in front of thousands of screaming Sangre Grande supporters.
May the best Eastern Giant win.

The word "imported" in the approved common names of the fire ant species was probably a poor choice, because "imported" typically suggests that the ants were brought into the United States on purpose. On the contrary, imported fire ants were accidentally introduced via trade ships traveling from South America, their native home, into the Port of Mobile, Alabama.
Two species of imported fire ants are found in North America: The black imported fire ant arrived around 1918, and the red imported fire ant arrived around 1930. Since their arrival, they have spread rapidly throughout the southeastern United States and into parts of Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and California.

Happy Hump Day! Today I'm sharing a valuable tip I learned the hard way... Have you ever gotten clothing dye on the leather of your favorite purse, your light leather car seats, or a leather belt? A lot of times unwashed clothing or denim will rub onto surrounding items and that is NO BUENO when your husband has just surprised you with an LV bag and you decide to wear a blue dress the next day. Yep, that happened and I got home to find my tan + white bag completely blue on one side. After my mild heart attack subsided, I took to Google to try and find a solution. Many articles recommended leather conditioner, which didn't work at all. I finally found the solution after scrolling and scrolling :: MAGIC ERASER. Mr Clean Magic Eraser works wonders on your home, but it will also be your best friend when it comes to clothing dye on your leather! Here's your step by step on magically erasing those stains:
Step 1 | Put a little bit of water on the corner of the Magic Eraser
Step 2 | Rub the stained area gently, but hard enough to where you are removing dye and see it on your Magic Eraser
Step 3 | After each couple of passes with the Magic Eraser, dab some leather conditioner onto a rag and follow over the area so that the Magic Eraser doesn't dry your leather out.
Repeat until the stain is gone! I promise you, this works!!
And, there are only 3 more days of the Tory Burch Private Sale! {Which isn't really private... all you have to do is enter your email address}. If you have larger feet, you're in luck.

I'm rounding up my favorites from the sale below, which goes through Friday, so scroll on through...

We all enjoy the perks of using all the latest gadgets and devices as they offer convenience to us in one or more ways. Smartphones related to android are known for the most user-friendly devices that do not have any notable drawbacks. Hence, android stands out in being the most commonly used platform as compared to iOS and Windows. Other platforms have their own perks but even if we combine the both, the android addicted users aren't in mood changing their preference as it is now too late for them to adjust to something new and different.
However, not all is good in using the android devices. For instance, you take photos, share them with friends, record videos upload it on online etc. thinking you are the only one having information and access to that data. This is where you are wrong as the prying eyes work regularly to gain access to your data. Once they are able to do so, they take your data captive and ask you to pay ransom amount in return or you may end up losing your data completely.
Read More: Data extraction software and its use
In this case users are unable to tackle these threats and even stop doing what they love because of this fear. Hence, in order to help our readers, we took the time out to research a review an app for android that would eliminate such threats.
Photo Video Locker Review:
An Android app by the name photo video locker works well to get rid of such threats. This app uses quick data encryption and security algorithm to make it impossible for you to lose your photos or videos. Moreover, cloud backup feature is made available to help you recover data in any case.
Photo Video Locker Features are as follows:
- Import data:
You can import desired photos and videos from the phone's camera or gallery or even download them directly from the browser.
- Create albums:
You can create personalized albums to manage videos and encrypted photos where you can organize and sort them as you prefer.
- Login options:
Multiple login options such as setting a strong password, a pin code or a pattern to help you stay away from those who you do not trust.
- Cloud backup:
Dropbox backup is available for you to upload your data to recover in case if you lose it.
- Panic switch:
Panic switch feature helps you to switch to another app while you are around someone who you do not trust. Just shake, flick or place the palm of your hand on the screen of your smartphone to do so.
- Hack attempt:
Furthermore, you can keep track of any snooping activities through hack attempt monitoring where your device would automatically take the snap of the culprit (who tries to access your phone with wrong credentials) and once they fail, you'll know who exactly has been trying to capture your data.
Final Thoughts
So far this app seemed to be as per our expectations and did exactly as it explained or promised. However, cloud backup is limited to only one account where we'd recommend them to add more accounts as well such as Google Drive, Box Account and One Drive.

The former Soviet state of Georgia is the latest to recognize former President Ronald Reagan for his efforts in destroying the USSR by unveiling a statue of him. Several other Eastern European countries dedicated statues to him earlier this year, Reagan's centennial birth year. President Obama was recently recognized on Russian television by a news anchor who gave Obama the finger, also known as "the bird." Those are fitting tributes to both men.
Regarding the horrified response to the letter recommending flamethrowers instead of pepper spray be used on the misbehaving Occupy Wall Street rabble: It's always sad to see there are actually people out there so

On this cold Thanksgiving morning, I heard a loud "pop" outside and the electrical power to my house went off. I went outside but saw nothing wrong. I came back inside and called Clay Electric. Within 20 minutes an electrician arrived, replaced a blown fuse on the power line outside and power to my house was immediately restored. Now that's great service!
Why in the world do we allow the refuse collectors to turn the garbage cans over after they have emptied them into the truck? Any remaining trash is free to fly all over the neighborhood. … Why does the Public Works Department allow this conduct by people paid to collect the refuse for the city? If we want to keep our city clean, put the garbage can right side up and put the top on.
I get a kick out of every time I see a national poll on a news network showing who's ahead, in between, and in last place. For the Republicans, they will elect a presidential nominee by state primaries. For the national 2012 presidential election, the winner will be decided by the state electoral college according to who wins a majority of the popular vote in each state. National polls are not a true indicator of the winner [because] in both cases the winner will be decided by states. So why keep broadcasting national poll numbers when it makes no difference in the final outcome?
Not sure who I am going to vote for, but little by little I am leaning more to Newt [Gingrich]. The more the left attacks him, the more I support him. I think he's the smartest person in the room, [doesn't] let the lamestream media push him around, and has the most depth looking at the overall picture regarding the problems we face as a nation. …
The whole idea of debating is to convince people why you are the best candidate. Ron Paul couldn't debate his way out of a parking ticket.

Yao Yilin (Chinese: 姚依林; pinyin: Yáo Yīlín) (September 6, 1917 – December 11, 1994) was a deputy Vice Premier of the People's Republic of China from 1983 to 1988, and the country's First Vice Premier from 1988 to 1993. He was born in Hong Kong in 1917, and spent his early years in Guichi, Chizhou, Anhui. Yao joined the Communist Party of China in 1935. During the December 9 Movement, Yao was the secretary of the Beijing city Party study group. During the Second Sino-Japanese War, he became the vice-director of the Finance Office of the Communist-controlled area. This began a long period of leadership in financial positions. In 1979, Yao became the Vice-Premier of the State Council. At the 13th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 1987, Yao was elected to the Politburo Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China and later rose to the position of First Vice Premier of the People's Republic of China.
Yao Yilin died after an illness on December 11, 1994. He was 77 years old.
Yao and his wife Hong Shouzi had three children, including daughters Yao Mingshan and Yao Mingduan and son Yao Qing. Yao Mingshan's husband is current Vice Premier and member of the Politburo Wang Qishan.
Role in the 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests[edit]
During the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, Yao Yilin held the position of Deputy Vice Premier of the People's Republic of China and was responsible for economic planning and management.[1] Yao was associated with the conservative side of the party which denied that the students were patriotic and advocated a quick suppression to the movement. Yao Yilin and Li Peng were both able to effectively oppose Zhao Ziyang in order to ensure that conservative influence would dominate the decisions made in the CPC.[2]
Involvement with April 26 Editorial[edit]
The April 26 editorial published in the People's Daily angered the students and greatly contributed to the growing numbers in the square. The official report of the Communist Party of China stated that the movement was not patriotic and the students were being led by a small group of anti-communist conspirators to cause "turmoil". Deng Xiaoping's own opinions were placed in the editorial to help support it and ensure that the people of China would obediently accept the party's view of the protests.[1] However, two opposing sides emerged in the party: one supported keeping the editorial the same, the other wanted to change the editorial to appease the students. Yao rejected Zhao's offer to take the blame for changing the party's opinion of the movement because the people would begin to doubt the cohesiveness of the party.[1] Yao proposed less conciliatory action with the students. Instead he wanted to further prevent other political leaders from supporting the protests, force students to end class boycotts, and maintain labor discipline in industry and commerce to keep production on track.[1] Yao Yilin and Li Peng were the leaders of the conservative faction and gained support by siding with Deng Xiaoping's view of the protests. Deng Xiaoping held a considerable amount of honour and prestige in China because of his long term involvement with the Communist Party and his close ties with China's previous iconic leader, Mao Zedong.[3] Yao slowly pulled support away from Zhao Ziyang's reformist faction by making his supporters believe that Zhao sided too much with the students over the clarification of the editorial. Yao Yilin attacked Zhao because he blamed the party for allowing corruption to go unchecked and making democracy and law worse in China.[1] Zhao found himself in a difficult situation when Yao and other conservatives worked together and opposed the decisions he made with other reformers such as Chen Yizi and Bao Tong.[4]
Justification for Martial Law[edit]
Yao Yilin and Li Peng are the two figures most associated with the initiation of martial law on June 4. The need for martial law came from the fear that the continuing stream of students entering the square were secretly coerced by anti-communist powers. Party leaders were afraid that these powers were continuing to fill Tiananmen Square with students and protesters that would only function to obstruct the CPC from governing the Chinese people.[1] Martial law was seen by the conservative faction as the only method that could bring about a crackdown with enough force to prevent future protesters from attempting to reach the square. According to Tony Saich, Yao was such a strong supporter of martial law because he saw it as a last resort option to end the protests and return proper functioning to Beijing.[5] In a discussion with other party leaders, Yao Yilin was quoted saying "The nature of this student movement has changed. It began as a natural expression of grief and has turned into social turmoil."[1] He advocated that all unofficially recognized student organizations should be considered illegal because he feared they would spread the turmoil outside Beijing and throughout the rest of the country. Yao was also the only member of the Standing Committee to refuse dialogue with the students because he believed that a small group of conspirators were behind these student organizations and dialogue with them would only strengthen their ability to overthrow the CPC.[1] Chow Chung-Yan discusses in his article published in the South China Morning Post how Li Peng and Yao Yilin favoured martial law because it would allow the hardliners to hold the power they had in the country.[6]

With the new school year just a few weeks old, you will read as many and varied answers from children, mothers and even school authorities to the questions- who is a father? List types of fathers you know? Let's not take to the trouble to outline replies to the first question. A father, according to many sources, is defined as a male parent who bigots a child or raises up one that is not his biologically.
"Empowering parents.com" adds that a father is a guide and teacher. Going by the different experiences lived by our voxpop respondents, types of fathers include "God the father", "Reverend father", "Loving father", "responsible father", "strict father" and "corrupt father", among others. Children of school going age who, for reasons not linked to security, are yet to receive formal education will surely tag their genitor( s) as "irresponsible". Seven types of modern fathers, according to a research conducted by "womenosophy.com", steal kids' happiness.
A "busy bee dad" is always hyper occupied, but tries to devote time and attention to their kids. Children who grow up with hearts overwhelmed with a feeling of resentment is attributed to an "invisible dad". Grim-faced and always complaining men aka "chronically unhappy fathers" don't impart emotional support to kids. "Nurse dads" cherish their children like the apple of an eye and cater to their every whim like mothers or grandmas. If your priority is to bring up well-mannered, intelligent and disciplined children regardless of everything, then you are called an "authoritarian dad".
Also on the list are "psychologist dad" and "bodyguard dad". Children are a reflection of their father's parenting styles. You reading, where do you belong in this category of fathers? If you consider yourself in the wrong category, take immediate action(s) to change your parental style and significantly improve the quality of your offspring's life.

Here is a translation of an injury formula from the Shaolin Bronze Man Book of Secret Formulas (少林寺秘方銅人簿; Qing Dynasty). I'll try to post more formula translations from the book as I work through it, and later I'll talk a little more about this genre of book as well.
This is a basic injury formula for acute injury. As we can see most of the herbs quicken blood, relieve pain and reduce swelling. The formula is decocted in a combination of water and alcohol, which was a common method of preparing trauma formulas that I first learned from Dr. Ping Chan up in the Boston area. I particularly like seeing that same part of the body but different sides (i.e., right and left) get different single herb additions. Dosages are translated as the original, in 'Qian.' This makes me nostalgic, as when I was first in practice I would have to write all formulas in Chinese so that patients could go to Chinatown in Boston to have formulas filled. And those pharmacies didn't take formulas with gram measurements, so I would have to render everything in traditional weight measures! Thanks also to Lorraine Wilcox who helped in the identification of some alternated herb names (it was common in the past to use alternate characters/names for herbs - things weren't as standardized as today).
Initial Stage Injury Formula (with modifications) 初打新傷方
Sheng Di 2 qian, Dang Gui Wei 2 qian, Tao Ren 0.5 qian, Hong Hua 1 qian, Ze Lan 1 qian, Da Huang 1 qian, Jin Bu Huan 0.5 qian, Zi Ran Tong 0.5 qian, Yu Jin 1 qian, Bing Lang 1 qian – decoct in mixture of alcohol and water

A Theology of Suffering: Preparing for the Worst/
Moore, Oklahoma. Boston, Massachusetts. Newtown, Connecticut. Within the last several months, places like these have become synonymous with suffering. My heart breaks for the people involved, especially the families who've lost children. As a father to three sons, I can't bear the thought of losing them to a natural disaster or a man-made tragedy. If not for my relationship with Jesus, I would likely lose all hope and peace if something like that were to happen to me. Words are inadequate to describe how difficult it must be for those who lost loved ones in the tornado in Moore, Oklahoma.
How have you reacted to these tragedies? Have you ever thought about how you would respond if something tragic were to happen to you or to people you love? You might call me gloomy or melancholy, but I am convinced it is important to have a solid biblical theology of suffering before you experience suffering. Like a natural disaster, suffering is extremely difficult to deal with unless you have made some necessary preparations. Granted, your preparations won't guarantee your safety, but that shelter you prepared just might be the very thing that helps you survive. Christians, don't be unprepared. Life is full of suffering, and most of the time suffering comes as a surprise.
So what does the Bible say about suffering and how should we respond to it?
The Bible speaks plenty about suffering because God wrote the Bible through people who were discipled by suffering. The apostle Paul is an excellent and authoritative source on suffering. Through his letters to various churches in the New Testament, Paul provides at least five instances where he addresses suffering. I hope these five points provide you with a basic framework for a theology of suffering. Suffering happens to everyone in various ways. I pray these points will help you see that it is God and His Word that will ultimately help you through your darkest days.
1. Understand your suffering
Paul writes to the church at Corinth, "For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raised the dead. He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again" (2 Cor. 1:8-10).
Paul experienced great affliction, even to the point of having suicidal thoughts. However, Paul began to understand that suffering was brought his way in order to help him rely on God. Please don't miss this. Paul viewed suffering as the means by which he learned to hope in God. As harsh as this sounds, especially to someone going through great tragedy, suffering exists to help you see the need for a deliverer. The reality is that everyone needs a deliverer whether in tragedy or triumph. Jesus Christ, the suffering servant, has come to deliver you.
2. Rejoice in your suffering
Paul writes to the church in Rome, "More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us" (Rom. 5:3-5).
Rejoice and suffering are two words that typically don't go together, yet Paul has no problem with telling the church in Rome to rejoice in sufferings. Why? Suffering reveals your true self, and suffering reveals your true hope. The character of a person is never found in times of prosperity, but in times of poverty. Suffering helps you to see who you really are. In addition, suffering reveals where your true security is found. When events turn tragic, a person quickly discovers what holds them together. Paul says to rejoice in suffering because it becomes the means by which you discover your true self and your true hope. Suffering is the grace whereby a person can sing, "My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness."
3. Compare your suffering
Paul writes again to the church in Rome, "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us" (Rom. 8:18).
It is easy to find someone who has it worse than you. Whenever you are going through something tragic, remind yourself about the billions of other people who have it far worse. I'm not suggesting to belittle your suffering, but I am suggesting to keep a global context in mind. Comparing your suffering to others is good, but this is not what Paul is suggesting. One of the greatest blessings you can give to yourself in this lifetime is to compare everything with the glory that awaits those who are in Christ Jesus. Paul says to compare your suffering, but he says to compare it with your future glory. If you belong to Jesus, all suffering is fleeting and you will one day be perfectly united with Christ in eternity. Especially in suffering, Christ must be proclaimed as the only hope because of how His goodness outweighs any bad you might face.
4. Appreciate His suffering
Paul writes to the church in Philippi, "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross" (Phil. 2:5-8).
Paul recognizes that if anyone knew extreme suffering, it was Jesus. He had all the rights, privileges, and authority with God because He was and is God, yet Jesus suffered by becoming a man. The highest King became the lowliest slave. Jesus also debased himself by willfully dying on a cross. He suffered more than anyone else in human history by taking on the sins of the world and by bearing the full brunt of the wrath of God. No one else has ever had to endure that kind of suffering. The ultimate theology of suffering is one that appreciates Christ as the only One who endured the severest of suffering for His glory and for your good.
5. Use your suffering
Paul writes to the church at Colossae, "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known" (Col. 1:24,25).
Again Paul is rejoicing in sufferings. His reason for rejoicing is that his suffering is a great benefit to the church. Paul recognizes his suffering is a great means by which people will be drawn to Christ. If in his suffering Paul shows others that he has hope in Christ when it seems like all hope is lost, then suffering is a mighty witness. Oftentimes the life of a Christian is the only Bible other people will read. It seems impossible to get others to read God's Word, but they certainly have no problem reading your life. As you make preparations for future tragedies by developing a solid biblical theology of suffering, don't forget that moments of suffering can also be moments where others are strongly drawn to receive Christ as their only hope. Use your suffering for His kingdom and for His glory by demonstrating to a lost world that Christ is all you need, even when a tornado comes and takes away everything.

text: Lights, camera, safety By Amanda Silliker 11/12/2015| www.cos-mag.com Keith Perepelkin was a stuntman working on the 20th Century Fox film Firestorm in 1996. A skydiving instructor with more than 3,000 jumps under his belt, he was tasked with jumping from a helicopter over Stawamus Chief in Squamish, B.C. to film an aerial scene. But when his parachute failed to open, he fell to his death. The coroner's report called for the establishment of industry-wide safe practice codes, and Actsafe was born in 1998.Actsafe is a non-profit association in Vancouver with a mission of providing health and safety training and resources to British Columbia's motion picture and performing arts industries. "(The entertainment industry) is somewhat unorthodox. The regulators write regulations and guidelines based on general hazards, high-level stuff, nothing really specific, so fall protection looks very different in the motion picture industry than it does in construction where you don't want big, yellow visible D-ring vests on your stunt actor," says Geoff Teoli, executive director.Teoli became the executive director of Actsafe in 2013. Previously, he had worked as a location manager in the motion picture industry for studios such as Warner Bros., MGM and Sony Pictures. Safety has always been a big part of his role."It was the department that was the most often dealing with the safety hazards, especially those ones related to site-specific hazard assessments, such as working in abandoned buildings or filming off a rooftop on a high rise or car chases," he says. OHS mostly exists at the grassroots level in the entertainment industry — a safety officer on a project is very rare, says Teoli. Supervisors and individual departments on a production end up taking ownership of safety themselves."You see a lot of creativity and ingenuity," says Teoli. "(There are) explosions, stunts, jumping off buildings, car chases and they seem to be pretty high-risk stuff and they pull them off regularly without incident."A common issue in the industry is that the creative nature of the business can be at odds with safety. For example, sometimes workers may want to step outside permit boundaries when filming a motion picture in order to get the best possible shot."The camera person takes a lot of pride. They are crafts people, they're artists and they want to help make the production as great as it can be," says Teoli.Issues most often arise when there are production changes. When filming a movie, assessments and hazard mitigation are done before the production starts, but often something will change once the camera starts rolling."That's where location managers or directors start to feel pressure because they have done a lot of work to get to a certain point and then they get there and for creative reasons they need to make adjustments, and sometimes those are done without the proper reassessment," says Teoli. Most of the injuries in the industry are sprains, strains and falls. Sets are constantly being erected and taken down, moving from one location to the next, all done by hand."In the motion picture industry it's not uncommon for six to eight of those large semi trucks to be loaded and unloaded everyday when they're going on to a new location," says Teoli. "(The carts of equipment) weigh hundreds of pounds; they hurt when they go the wrong way or people fall off the back of a truck trying to move one around."In live concert venues, stagehands are pushing carts, boxes of gear and stage pieces by hand across the stadium floor which leads to hand, foot and ankle injuries.Performers also face risks when they are on stage. For example, in May, U2's guitarist The Edge fell off the stage during a concert in Vancouver. Performance spaces include all kinds of raised stages and elevation changes that create tripping and falling hazards — especially in low light conditions."On a sound stage or a concert hall the lights are turned down so the audience or camera can get the right effect but it makes it difficult for workers to see the edges," says Teoli.Actsafe offers safety courses specific to the performing arts and film and television industry. Its general safety awareness course, which is mandated by some of the unions, covers topics such as rights and responsibilities, moving equipment and working outside in extreme weather. It also has a new worker orientation that covers industry-wide hazards including lighting and working on stages. Actsafe also offers a firearm safety awareness course to teach people how to work with and around replicas."An entry-level person going into the props department or an assistant director who is trying to co-ordinate a shoot can better understand what to expect when working around weapons. And not just how to handle them, but what the safe distances are and why you don't point a weapon at anybody even when it's a fake," says Teoli.Last year, Actsafe began renting automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to its members. "Unions have members that have died on site due to cardiac arrest. And these were usually due to pre-existing conditions, however, had an AED been available in many of these cases, it might have been a better chance of survival," says Teoli.Actsafe is hoping to create an AED system and unified training within the industry so when workers go from one job to another, the same piece of equipment will be there and they will know how to use it. The ultimate goal is for productions to start investing in the devices themselves."We wanted to try and normalize it in the industry," says Teoli. "Once that happens, it's like a seat belt; you feel wrong without it."Actsafe has recently put together a task force on dancer health."That's going to be challenging because dancers are athletes and we don't have a lot of ability to control an artistic athlete and their performance," says Teoli. "A lot of them push themselves really hard and injuries become part of that lifestyle, but we're trying to see if there is anything we can do on the return to work side of it or educate younger dancers in the dance schools."[em]Photo: Geoff Teoli[/em]This article originally appeared in the October/November 2015 issue of COS. © Copyright Canadian Occupational Safety, HAB Press.

SEA SPIRIT Cruises For Quark
The renamed SEA SPIRIT, which until September had been sailing for the now defunct Cruise West as the SPIRIT OF OCEANUS (ex. RENAISSANCE V, HANSEATIC RENAISSANCE, SUN VIVA, MEGASTAR SAGITTARIUS) has been chartered to Toronto-based Quark Expeditions for cruises in Antarctica from December until March 6, 2011. The ship abruptly terminated a 335-day World Cruise at St. John's, Newfoundland when Cruise West ceased operations. The Columbia Bank of Washington State forced the sale of the ship to the Danish group TN Cruise K/S, with International Shipping Partners of Miami handling the management aspects. The ship sailed to the Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport, Bahamas where upgrades have been carried out to give the 4,200 gross ton, 120-passenger vessel an ice certification. Hull strengthening, technical upgrades and interior refurbishments are nearly complete to ready the ship for it's new expedition service in polar regions. The hull has also been repainted from white to blue. Quark Expeditions operates a chartered fleet of eight unique expedition vessels, but the SEA SPIRIT will be the most luxurious of them. The first voyage will depart December 22, 2010 from Ushuaia, Argentina to South Georgia Island and the Antarctic Peninsula.
