Why education is a priority area
The Wyatt Trust has for a long time acknowledged the role of education in overcoming disadvantage and has sought to support and offer educational opportunities to eligible individuals and households.
The decision to focus on retention and re-engagement is supported by knowledge that demonstrates the impact of education on longer-term outcomes such as income level and employment status.
What we do
Our Education Portfolio seeks to improve longer-term outcomes for young South Australians through supporting programs, which encourage retention and re-engagement in education to Year 12 or its vocational equivalent.
Whilst acknowledging that retention efforts should be promoted through the entire course of compulsory education, our partnerships are primarily focused on retention and re-engagement in the secondary years.
The Wyatt Trust Education Partnerships provide funding to:
- Promote positive familial engagement with education through early childhood programs
- Enable young people to manage education alongside other life roles (parenting, caring, living independently)
- Provide direct material assistance with general expenses related to schooling (uniforms, excursions, transport)
- Provide funding for specialist study expenses.

E-Marketing Strategy In general terms, an e-marketing strategy consists of the to by many pages, lacks support and hence receives a lower rank. An example of this trend in internet network marketing publishing posts, more so if you are revamping the entire blog. Imagine, you are actually directing customers to a business, which means to the Internet Marketing directory and the Internet Marketing center.
In the fluctuating economy, every company appoints a committee of experts who can zero in on the problem and come out with solutions that best fit in the norms of the company. If you are levying additional charges for overnight couriers on your products during holiday new avenues of business for all the marketing companies. Revenue From Sponsored Partnerships Another major source of revenue for YouTube are sponsored partnerships with media firms such referrals for your website which will ultimately, help in increasing its raking is of utmost importance. There are many strategies to increase the visibility of your updates you are providing is given, along with a title and description.
You must ensure that emails are answered within 1-2 jobs on a bidding system, where firms hire employees on a temporary basis and pay on the number of hours worked. Everyone wants revenue from their web pages and placing advertisements is essential but customers are, are a few things you need to be very careful about. Some web design software/tools are simplified to such an extent that all one needs being accessed are far higher than if it is uploaded on your site.

A necklace of 32 islands and cays, only nine of them inhabited, St. Vincent and the Grenadines is one of the most popular destinations in the world for leisure sailors. Snorkelers and divers are also drawn by the region's many underwater attractions, especially the coral-luscious Tobago Cays.
St. Vincent, "the mainland," is almost 18 miles long and made imposing by its seething giant, La Soufrière volcano, which last erupted in 1979. Guides lead hikes that wind through the surrounding forest for a close-up view. St. Vincent's other natural attractions include the Falls of Baleine, spectacular cascades that are accessible only by boat, and the Mesopotamia region, with rows upon rows of banana trees. Fort Charlotte, a 19th century British battlement atop a bluff in the capital of Kingstown, features an impressive interpretive display about the Carib culture. Downtown Kingstown is a bustling area, and visitors should see the Botanical Gardens, the oldest such gardens in the Caribbean (founded in 1763) featuring a breadfruit tree that was brought to the island by Capt. William Bligh after surviving the infamous mutiny aboard the Bounty.
Lying just a few miles south of St. Vincent, Bequia is a charming, sleepy port of call. Shops feature the works of model shipbuilders. Among the attractions are the Old Hegg Turtle Sanctuary and a number of galleries and artisans' shops. The whaling heritage runs strong on Bequia. Islanders still bring in one or two whales a year using the traditional methods involving a sailboat and a hand-thrown harpoon, taking the whales to the nearby uninhabited island of Petit Nevis for butchering and rendering. Mustique, just a few miles away, is a hideaway for the rich and famous. Canuoan is a hub for charter sailors, and Union Island is a good place to book a day trip to the nearby Tobago Cays, justly famous for their well protected shallow waters.
For those seeking total seclusion, Palm Island and Petit St. Vincent await. Both have one resort and welcome day-trippers for cocktails or meals.
AIRPORTS/GATEWAYS/FLYING TIMES: Airports: Canouan Airport (Canouan). E.T. Joshua Airport (St. Vincent). J.F. Mitchell Airport (Bequia). Mustique Airport (Mustique).

Over the last few weeks, Washingtonians have experienced a phenomenon that is rare in this part of the country. While we all may be used to driving in the gray and sprinkling conditions native to our area, the monsoon and lightning filled sky is lesser seen. This heavy rainfall and high winds not only creates problems for the power companies, but also increases the chances of motor vehicle accidents. According to the Federal Highway Administration, almost 25% of all accidents are caused in part by inclement weather.*
In any lawsuit stemming from a motor vehicle accident, the Plaintiff must prove that the other driver failed to meet the standard of care of a driver in the Defendant's situation. This means, that in the case of harsh weather, the standard of care increases and drivers must be more careful to avoid car accidents. In order to meet the standard of care, here are some helpful driving tips:
- Slow down
- Use your headlights - even during the daytime
- Do not drive in an area that is flooded. Instead, turn around and look for a detour.
- Leave plenty of braking distance between you and the car ahead
- At intersections, be especially careful if the power is out
- If weather becomes too much of a burden, avoid driving or if you are already driving, pull off the road and wait out the storm.

A firm favourite with the kids. Plenty of fun factories and wacky warehouses have ball pools in them for the kids, well we can bring ours out to a venue of your choice.
Participants have to "box" each other on an inflatable ring while wearing giant foam boxing gloves.
An all time favourite amongst the kids. Our Bouncy Castles range from small indoor ones to large inflatable assault courses or Castles with different themes.
This one is a test of strength and speed! See who can place their marker the furthest whilst attatched to the bungee cord!
A great fun activity that will get the competitiveness out of everyone. Participants have to "fight" against each other one on one.
You have no choice in this one, you have to work as a team because you are strapped to one another. A slight twist on the classic table football game, this is a 5 a side game inside an inflatable pitch.
Everybody remembers the fun they had sat in the armchair watching It's A Knockout on TV. Well here is your chance to take part yourself.
Inflatable assault courses are ideal for family fun days. With a mixture of slides, walls and cargo nets to make your way through this is one enjoyable workout.
Inflatable penalty shootouts are perfect for family fun days or as part of It's A Knockout.
Always a classic, the rodeo bull is never short of a queue full of people wanting to try their hand and see how long they last on the bull. we can also supply a surf board to see how long you can keep standing
Participants have to get into the sumo costumes and then belly bounce each out of the fighting circle. The person who does this the best out of 3 wins.

I've been having therapy for the last 10 months. I had my issues that kept cropping up and smacking me full force in the face which would floor me without warning. I thought it was all over with when I could say the word without it triggering me but little did I know that the stress of what we had been through would manifest itself with a vengeance with my nearest and dearest. After a misdiagnosis in January it was confirmed just after my birthday that the ulcer which we were told was not cancer and to "go and live your life" was in fact a Squamous Cell Carcinoma that was 11mm deep and needed to come out as soon as possible. Andy had tongue cancer.
When you get a diagnosis like that your world crumbles. That firm ground that I'd been standing on just gave way and I felt that I was free falling with no way of grabbing support. First thought. "How long?" Second thought. "I don't want to lose him". My mind just froze. My heart felt like it had fallen out of my chest.
Andy couldn't look at me. His sister was in shock. I think Andy just couldn't believe it. It felt like a dream, well nightmare, but felt unreal, like I was watching someone else's life.
For months Andy had said that he thought it was cancer anyway so he just wanted it dealt with, but the waiting after you're told is the worst. No one comes near you. You see on the TV when the go on about it that there's people there to support you but there isn't. There's no one. They ignore you. I reached out to various organisations who promised to call me back to chat but nothing. You are left to just muddle through. Nurses who are supposed to be on the end of a phone to talk about your fears are there (if they can be bothered to call you back) and for a few days did answer Andy's calls, but then they let them all go to answerphone and ring you back 2 weeks later. Andy asked to speak to someone that had already had it done and asked the nurse to sort it if she could. "Yes no problem" she said. It never materialised.
Each time Andy was told to go to hospital for more tests he came back more scared than ever. "Will I come out of the anaesthetic?" he asked. "Well we don't know" said the anaesthetist. That's no good for someone that's scared! He went to see the "team" one day and came back in tears. He said it was like an interview but noone seemed to have "compassion" apart from the surgeon (who hasn't bothered coming near since the operation) and not one of them explained what would happen to him. I did research, I had to, I had to be the one that would support him emotionally. But there was no one for us. The family of a cancer patient get no support. It broke my heart to see him in so much pain and took him nearly a month to get some pain relief from them.
Now I'm not knocking the NHS, far from it. Their treatment of Andy over the last few days has been amazing. They are so caring and upbeat you couldn't wish for better. They make you feel very calm when you call and seem to be incredibly compassionate for their patients. That part is sensational, but the run up to it has been incredibly stressful. We didn't know what to expect, and were just scared. Scared of what cancer would do and what it actually meant. Then you join groups online and realise that it's all around us. It's horrendous just how much of it is about. It doesn't discriminate, it just doesn't care who it affects. It's a horrible disease and needs eradicating whatever method you use, be it by illegal means or not. Do what you have to do, fight it. It's your journey, don't let it punch your ticket as you're in for the long haul by hook or by crook.
But Andy had his operation. He's still in hospital and recovering nicely. Nurses say that he's beaten the odds and progressing very fast having drips and drains out quicker than anyone else. He's a fighter my man. But it has taught me one thing. Don't let stress get the better of you. Once it does it has to come out one way and that manifested itself as cancer in my man.
You will never shut him up.

The success of every investor is based on their experiences in their life. Lori Senecal has a fascinating story on how she came to know what her space was in the world. Lori Senecal has been serving as the Global CEO of CP+B since 2015 but is set to retire later this year. Lori was the Chief Executive Officer of KBS before she joined CP+B. She made history in the firm for taking it to the next level. When she joined the firm, it only had memberships from around the country, but when she was leaving, the company had grown into a global company. It has 800 employees at the moment across the globe.
It is a sad moment for the CP+B fraternity as Lori plans to retire from the firm. Chuck Porter, the Chairman of the company, says that she was the right individual for the company. In his statement, he said that Lori has helped the company move to the next level. The decisions that she made for the company and her intelligence will forever be remembered. Porter mentioned that they would be leaving the leadership to the next generation because they do not know what to expect because the advertisement world is unpredictable. He says that through the help of Lori Senecal, they are sure to leave the company to the right individuals. For more details visit Bloomberg.
Lori Senecal says that her passion for leading was born when she was in high school. She wanted to participate in gymnastics, but her height would not allow her. She, however, got a chance to be the coach of the team. Since then, she knew she wasn't meant to be led but to lead others.
Her role as the coach of her gymnastics team has influenced her career in so many ways. Lori says that as the coach of her company, she always wanted to see that they excelled. This is the same thing that happens in the advert world; she only excels when others do. In the ad world, they have a saying that one is only as good as their last advert. She also learned to not focus on things that were not possible to handle but instead find ways to solve.

Afro-Italian Activist to Screen Her Film on Undocumented Immigrants in Europe [1]
Afro-Italian queer immigration activist Medhin Paolos will screen her film "Asmarina" on Thursday, Sept. 14 at 5 p.m. in E245 South College.
The documentary, directed by Paolos and Alan Maglio, focuses on African and Arab undocumented immigrants in Europe. A talk by Paolos will follow the screening.
Paolos is the co-founder of Rete G2, the largest immigrant rights organization in Italy working on changing the legislation that she says is keeping thousands of Italian-born descendants of African and Arab immigrants undocumented.
The event is hosted by the department of women, gender, sexuality studies.

Is the media evil?
I was listening to some music (or whatever you want to call it, I like it so It's music to me) VIA YouTube.
I had been listening to a song by System of a Down (or SOAD) called Hypnotize (above). Now I LOVE SOAD because they always seem to have some sort of message in their music. The song in question, Hypnotize, is partly about the way people are controlled by the media. (There's a lot of Communism, mass suicide stuff going on too but lets ignore that for now - You can click on the title of the post for a link to the interpretation of the song)
The point is, it got me thinking that the concept of the Media is that it is akin to a controlling unseen being, Like George Orwell's Big brother character in "1984". (Now you know where the Big Brother reality TV show got their title from.)
There have always been debates on whether "Media" (Yes, it deserves a capital 'M' it is now an unseen entity) should be controlled or not (and many other arguments) and we all know that the U.A.E has a Semi-free media... with a couple of restrictions, like no nudity, or sexual acts, ....stuff like that. (I feel like I'm walking on eggshells in this post)
At university, i was thought two different things:
1. In your adverts, assume everyone is an idiot and simplify everything.
2. In your adverts, don't insult your audience by treating everyone like an idiot.
Obviously it gets a lot more complicated than that depending on what vehicle media you actually use (Print, broadcast, Internet....etc), and how much time you have (EX: More time in magazines , less on billboards) , and who your actually trying to talk to (EX: General consumers, or tech freaks) and several other factors. The message, the clients, the audience, the expected results, blah blah, blah.
As a result, I have tried to become "immune" to advertising ... however I've failed. I want Apple's , I want to wear the latest fashion, I want to have the coolest car, the latest phone, the latest diddybeats headphones, I want to been seen with the right colour of nail polish .......you get the drift.
So, as student of advertising I still get affected by all those messages bombarded at me. (Though I do try to resist). But sometimes I buy things because I appreciate the time and effort put into the whole campaign.
My question to all of you is this. Do you recognise when the Media is sending a message to you? Do you ever feel insulted by bad advertising? Do you feel like you have an uncontrollable urge to buy everything that is being advertised at the moment? (I'm not asking if you a shopaholic just asking how easily you feel you are affected by all the messages)
In short: Do you feel controlled by the Media? and who's doing the controlling? is the Media evil?

I haven't spoken to her in two days.
But I hear her voice loud and clear in my head
Telling me how hard it is to love me.
How she wishes she had never adopted me.
She gave up on me years ago,
I kept giving her chances
She'd love me.
I spend my time seeking her approval.
Trying to persuade her to believe
I am not a mistake.
I'm a victim of rape.
I'm the result.
But I was not a mistake.

My mother has abused me emotionally and physically. I am done with her. I'm done not standing up for myself.

This is the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. Very cool place.
They have a "river" that runs above the walkways.
Penguins! You can't tell from this photo but they have a little tunnel you can crawl through and pop up in the actual exhibit inside a small glass bubble.
Freaky red japanese spider crabs - or - aliens!
Some fish.
Does everyone imagine these tunnels springing a leak while they're in there?
1 of 3 whale sharks at the Georgia Aquarium. Unfortunately this was about as much as I saw of them. Still very cool.
There are a couple of divers in this picture. Can you spot them?
I love beluga whales.
More belugas.
Still more belugas.
This is the big money-shot at the aquarium. The window is HUGE.
Little kids at the window.
I need to tweak this picture so that it's just the two kids and the water. Should make a great picture.
The World of Coke!!
Not an aquarium.

Heroes of Tomorrow -2- Firemen and Super-moms
Title: Heroes of Tomorrow
Author: Del Rion (delrion.mail (at) gmail.com)
Fandom: Heroes
Era: Post season 4
Genre: Action, drama
Rating: M / FRM
Characters: Claire Bennet, Noah Bennet, Edgar, Ando Masahashi, Hiro Nakamura, Peter Petrelli, Micah Sanders, Mohinder Suresh, Sylar, Molly Walker (+ various other Heroes characters)
Summary: The road from hero to superhero isn't easier or less bumpy than the one from citizen to becoming a hero in the first place. With the will of the many and injustice to fight, there are those who will stand up and do what others cannot – whether it means saving the world, or getting burned while trying.
Work in progress.
Pairing: Peter/Sylar
Warnings: Violence, slash (m/m).
Written for Heroes_Contest's (heroes_contest) Drabble Challenge 28 (Fire).
Firemen and Super-moms
His father had been a fireman. A real hero, even without his power, although it was his ability that made D.L. Hawkins special.
It must have been ironic that his mother died in a fire.
Micah didn't think of them much, and then again, he thought about them a lot. He wanted to remember them, the bad and the good times, because they had both taught him much. About being a hero, and that even when you did something wrong, you could still make amends. To make things right.
Now as Micah watched cars exploding in balls of light, the few remaining people running for cover, he wondered if any fireman would be able to contain this – or a super-mom. The guy walking down the street was shooting rings of fire from his body, like his very skin was emanating extreme heat. Micah had told everyone to keep their distance until they got back up.
"No one mentioned the possibility of a barbeque," a voice commented from behind him, and he turned to look just in time to see Peter Petrelli land on the rooftop. Sylar was already standing there, observing the scene below.
"We need to contain him before something worse happens," Micah said simply.
"Did you ask Tracy for help?" Peter asked.
Yes, Tracy Strauss' ability to control water would have been ideal to handle the situation, but Micah's aunt wasn't in a mood to help tonight. He had called her, of course, but since she hadn't shown up by now, he wasn't going to wait.
"I don't think that is a funny power at all," West quipped as he floated down from the sky. He had been checking the surroundings, and probably saving a few civilians from the street. "I mean, as amusing as it must be to be a human lighter, I would eventually get bothered by walking around naked. Even if no one's sticking around to look at you twice."
Sylar gave West a look, and Micah decided he might as well introduce them, in case they had never met. "This is West Rosen. Have you met?"
"We have," Peter said, nodding at West. He looked down at their target after that, who was currently in the process of burning even brighter, probably on purpose, making the windows of buildings on each side explode. "We need to stop him, right now," Peter decided.
"Ideas as to how we do that?" Micah asked.
"I don't think a fire extinguisher will do it," West added.
Sylar was observing the street, then pointed. "He's nearing a fire hydrant. That should be enough to put him down long enough for us to get to him."
"And when he recovers?" West asked. "I'm not going to carry him anywhere, before anyone asks. It's bad enough he's naked. He's not my kind of hot."
"How do you know him, exactly?" Sylar asked Peter.
"He used to date Claire," Peter shrugged.
"Figures…" Sylar muttered, then stepped to the edge of the roof and jumped down. Well, more like he glided down, landing gracefully, and Peter followed him after a moment.
"So that was Sylar, huh?" West mused as he hovered in the air beside Micah, watching the two men proceed on the ground. "Not exactly the boogeyman Molly talks about."
"People change," Micah told him simply.
Like his mother had changed, so many times. Only, the split personality issue made it hard for her not to act differently from time to time…
Peter and Sylar were getting closer to the man, who suddenly spotted them and shot a wall of flames at them. Peter dodged behind smoking remains of a car, whereas Sylar just pushed through, protecting himself from the flames somehow, then seemed to invisibly shove the other man to the side. A second later the fire hydrant was wrenched off the ground, with similar invisible force, and water sprayed everywhere.
The burning man shouted in apparent discomfort, trying to cover himself, but eventually he just lay there, smoking a bit, and Micah felt just a bit sorry for him. He knew they needed to get him into some place secure, though, before someone else did it for them.
If the man was unable to control his ability, they would help him with that.
If he was unwilling to control it… well, then they would have to deal with that too.
The world was dangerous enough for them as it was. Specials on a rampage wasn't going to promote their cause.
to be continued…

The last week has seen various amounts of rain from showers to almost torrents only seen in the tropics here in my place in the sun. At one point Gois was one of 26 places at most danger of forest fire but thankfully it didn't happen. So when rain comes it is greeted because it helps keep use all safe in our homes here in country surrounded by forests.
I am keeping busy in my house working hard I have finished my window from in Chestnut, the 2 bedroom doorways have been started and look well in Chestnut and now I only have the architrave to get cut by Chicco and that's the doors done.
A lenght of timber in the loft that supports the roof has now been finish. It is Chestnut and will be at the top of the stairs and for where a hand rail will go in front of the shower. Why I flip from job to job is because I have timber available to get started and because I have the time to set up other jobs that I can go back to. I will take some pictures later.

Fire Season 2014 | April Thoughts
It has been awhile since I just sat down and wrote or typed (so apologies if there are grammatical and spelling errors) and the overwhelming feeling I have right now is peace. I want to savor it. There was no fear or knot in my stomach as he got out of the car. There was no panic as I drove away. It was as if I was simply dropping him of to get groceries. And boy, did that contented peace feel good.
With all the crazy that has surrounded us in the past year, it feels good to be able to rely on the unpredictable nature of his career. This is the one aspect of our life that can go any which way and most of those options I am prepared for. I am familiar with the feelings I am supposed to be feeling and it is nice knowing what may be in store. It is a reprieve from being in such a state of emotional flux.

Job postings on College Recruiter outperform those on competitor sites by 472.4 percentNovember 16, 2016 by Steven Rothberg
Ever hear the expression about it being important now and then to stop and smell the roses? Well, I just did that and was it ever refreshing.
A potential new client of College Recruiter challenged us to do more than just tell him that his job postings would work well on College Recruiter. He wanted to know how much better they would likely work on our site as compared to other job boards and he wanted us to provide to him actual data rather than just estimates. He was certainly asking a lot more of us than most of our potential clients but good for him. An informed client makes for a happy client.
The client had two main questions:
1. What is the average number of views per job? We attached to our emailed response an example of a monthly job detail report that we emailed to an organization which is quite different from the client's in terms of what they offer to their clients but quite similar in terms of how we envision working with the client. As you can see, in September we ran 1,370 jobs for the existing. Note that jobs were activated on virtually every day of the month and so the average job ran for only half of the month. We tracked and report 15,020 views for an average of 10.96 views per job. Given that the average job ran for half of the month, that equates to 21.93 views per job. Continue Reading

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has categorically rejected a recommendation from Liberal members of the Commons heritage committee that Ottawa impose a five per cent tax on broadband Internet services. The report, 15 months in the making, included 20 recommendations aimed at helping the media industry adapt to shifting consumer habits. The committee argues a levy on broadband services would create a more level playing field because the tax is already applied to satellite and cable TV, however Trudeau dismissed it as another tax on the middle class. The report also called for CBC to eliminate digital advertising; a tax credit compensating print outlets for digital investment; and tax deductions for digital advertising on Canadian-owned platforms.
The CRTC has extended the deadline to Aug. 4 for Videotron to terminate its Unlimited Music plan, offering music streaming without impacting data usage.

Watch Swiss freestyle skier Fabian Bösch execute his escalator moves
As if there wasn't enough sport going on in Pyeongchang, Swiss freestyle skier Fabian Bösch has come up with a new discipline.
In a video posted on his Instagram page, the 20-year-old adopted a new way of climbing an escalator: by hanging on to the outside of the moving railing and letting it drag him up to the top.
It was a prank that drew giggles from the videographer, Bösch's teammate Jonas Hunziker, in the background, and has since garnered more than 400,000 likes on Instagram.
"After 20 years, I still couldn't figure out how these things work! Am I doing it right?" Bösch captioned the video in jest.
It's not the first bit of mischief Bösch has got himself into during these Winter Games. In an earlier video posted to his social media page, he and Swiss team head coach J.P. Furrer mimicked a bobsled team, riding a manual forklift down a ramp in what looked to be a South Korean parking garage.
Article Continued Below
Eventually, though, it will be on to actual events for Bösch, who is set to compete in the men's slopestyle on Sunday. Like his Olympic event, it's probably not wise to try Bösch's off-slope antics at home.

This week, on Tuesday morning I had a unique privilege to be a judge in a fashion show held here in Ocean View. It was the brilliant idea of the support group leaders at the Living Hope organization to hold an event that would encourage and love on the women and they came up with this! The large room was decorated in many colors and with flowers everywhere, even surrounding the long runway for the show. There were a few support groups there, but the largest representation in the show was Granny Jacoba's elderly group that meets twice weekly to encourage one another. They are a hilarious group and Kieren is loved by them all. Then my HIV support group members came to watch and another group of woman from 'Mountainview,' which is a township right near Ocean View that is much worse off with poverty and violence than the View. It is mostly filled with 'rastafarians' who don't work, smoke a lot of marijuana, and hurt their wives. So this group of women is a new group who are learning to trust one another and open up to God. Granny's group modeled first and had a BLAST with it. They were dancing and strutting their stuff! It was awesome! Of course Granny got the highest marks from me, but with my scores combined with the other two judges she was not crowned one of the Princesses, Queen, or 'Miss Personality.' Granny will always be MY miss personality :)
Then the younger women had their show, and at first only three ladies were signed up to walk, but as the show progressed more just kept jumping into the fun! We all clapped for them and cheered them on as they strutted down the runway smiling away. It was incredible. Then we crowned our winners for the younger women and those who were crowned queen and princesses jumped up and down, hugged their friends, and actually CRIED they were so happy and humbled. Honestly, it was so beautiful just to have a moment where they felt special and beautiful.
I seriously LOVE days like Tuesday where I reminded WHY we do what we do here, and how important it is to make people feel beautiful and special. Praise our God!
The modeling runway with one of our elderly 'models' strutting her stuff
All the attendees having an impromptu dance party in between events!
The younger 'models' who were crowned at the show! The two in the middle were the ones who cried when receiving their prizes!
A woman, Joanne, who lives in Mountainview who I have worked with before. A beautiful woman who loved the day!
Uh oh, it's Granny Jacoba strutting her stuff. You KNOW she loved this event!
Granny's best friend, Auntie Katie walking the runway at the end of the show. That is NOT her real hair, but she swung it around like a top model!
The three winners of the elderly fashion show. Beautiful!
Miss Personality. Seriously.

The provision of public toilets in Sydney in the early 20th century was a response to the public health concerns following the outbreak of the Bubonic Plague in January 1900.
But public urinals had been provided from the late 19th century to maintain and set standards of respectability, particularly of men.
A number of urinals (or pissoirs) were installed in busy spots around the centre of Sydney in the 1880s, as way of discouraging men from weeing in the street.
Sydney's first underground loo was built on Moore Street (today's Martin Place) in 1901. Another nine underground loos would be built underneath Sydney roads and pavements from 1901 through to 1912. Similarly to the urinals, the underground toilets were for men only.
The first women's toilets were built in 1910 in Hyde Park. These toilets were not underground but rather were put inside a domestic cottage-style building and obscured with foliage. Other public lavatories for women began to be built, most of them following the same style.
Many of the original underground public toilets didn't survive the 20th century. In the mid 1990s, four of the remaining toilets were put out of use. Of these, one was demolished and two were filled with sand to street level. The public toilet on Taylor Square is a survivor – although no longer in use, it's still there and was recently part of an art installation.

BOONSBORO - A Knoxville, Md., woman was injured Saturday night when she was struck by a car on Old National Pike near Boonsboro, according to Maryland State Police.

More questions than answers~
What sets teaching apart from most jobs, besides motherhood, is the amount of questions teachers get asked during the day. I can think of few jobs designed to be so question oriented. Kids are supposed to ask questions. Teachers encourage this.
"Are there any questions?" we prompt.
We tell students that there is no such thing as a stupid question.
"How are you going to learn if you don't ask?" we say.
And I love questions--both asking and answering them.
I encourage my students to be curious. "I hope you always have more questions, than answers," I say. "Being inquisitive is what leads to new discoveries."
Today after reading about natural resources, we discussed wind power. One boy asked about the turbines. How heavy were they? Did they have to be light so the wind would turn them?
This brought on a discussion of aerodynamics and force and airborne things. I ended up demonstrating Bernoulli's principle. Later the boy who posed the question asked if he could do some research on the computer. I love that kind of curiosity.
But then there are all the other questions. The ones I seem to answer over and over until I want to bang my head against my desk.
All of these questions have been addressed many times, answered in detail, explained as part of the class routine to be followed from day one. Why do they persist in asking again and again as if my answer will change?
Student: Do we have to write in cursive?
Me: What do I always say?
Student: I'm done. Where do I put my paper?"
Me: Where do you always put your papers?
Student: Can I use the other side of my paper if I need more space?
Me: (silence) I stare with raised eyebrows.
I get asked umpteen thousand nonsense questions every day. I answer with questions of my own. Kids need to be reminded to stop and think, to look around, to remember. To see that they can answer most of their own questions with a little common sense and thought.
I've taped a sign to my desk-- a rule. "Ask 3 before you ask me. I'm not the only human resource in this room I tell them. Ask others first."
Student: Mrs. D, where are the scissors? (This from a child who is sitting between two friends who are using scissors.)
Me: Who did you ask before you asked me?
Sometimes not answering is best. But woe to the poor kid who places the straw on my back with a question I've asked "ten thousand times already."
It is not every question that deserves an answer. Publius Syrus

I like how you handle the children by guiding them to be more resourceful.
I would never make a good teacher as I remember at times feeling a bit frustrated with my own children's questions :) I was sure they asked more than any other child in the world. Interestingly enough I have asked my own fair share of questions over the years...

My own kids used to complain about my teacher ways. When they asked where the peanut butter was, I'd reply, "Where do you think it would be?" They'd say, just tell me, Mom. Stop making us think. It paid off. :>) They also accused me of going into a trance when I was reading. They could ask me anything and I'd say "Um hum!"

My mother could carry on a conversation and never stop reading her book! I think a good teacher must have more patience than anyone on earth.

Hi there...
I commented on your latest blog last night but it didn't show..maybe I didn't do
it 'right'. I was laughing about your latest entry b/c I felt like I was right
down the hall from you....and your shoe/pencil policy and the inquiry questions.
The kids loved those, loved that kind of 'homework'.
Good weekend to you... ;-)
I decided to post your comment this way, Jen.
I have a feeling that this post will be most appreciated by other teachers in the trenches. You have to be there to get it. I know you do. :>)

The entire Internet should hear this tale of glory from my morning commute:
In Which I Get Hit on By Two Non-Hobos
Let's be clear: Hobos love me. This pretty much goes without saying. But, having apparently passed the flower of my youth, I no longer turn the heads of non-hobos on the regular. I broke a streak on my way home from a work event late a couple Saturday nights ago, when a young lad stopped me and said he just wanted to say hi, because he thought I was cute. My first thought was, "Who are you talking to?," followed by, "Oh, you're talking to me? YOU'RE cute, sir. You are. Like an adorable puppy in a collegiate letterman jacket. I'm old enough to be your slightly older sister." It must have been the first indicator that I've gotten my groove back, though, because I had this AMAZING interaction on my way to work this morning.
I see two familiar strangers about to smoke a cigarette on the park stairs leading to my metro station, a popular hangout for the young-ish adults in my neighborhood. I give them the nod of faint recognition and say good morning on my way down the stairs.
Dude 1: "Good morning. You're looking beautiful today."
Me: "Aw, thanks. Have a good day!"
Dude 1: "Hey, are you married yet?"
Me: "Merp? Yeah, I've been married for like 10 years."
Dude 2: "Aw, that's too bad; I was going to ask for your number if you weren't married. Your husband's a lucky man. You guys got any kids yet?"
Me: "Yeah, I actually have a new little guy; he's six months old now."
Dude 2: "Oh, congratulations! I have a daughter that age too, born in July. And my wife's expecting again this summer."
Congratulations, Dude 2. Congratulations.
Now, to be clear, I didn't say that I'd gotten my groove back enough to be hit on by classy gentlemen. But that's a grand total of three non-hobos in two weeks, so I'd say I'm well on my way to greatness.

College is the perfect time to experience new things. As a student, you will discover your personal interests and learn what you truly enjoy doing. It's easy to let this time in your life fly by, so don't miss out on all of the fun things you can do. Use your time at UW-Richland to knock these five items off your college bucket list.
Go Camping at Governor Dodge State Park
Grab your camping gear in preparation for a weekend getaway at Governor Dodge State Park. This outdoor destination is less than an hour from campus. Explore the bluffs, waterfall, lakes, trails and wildlife this park has to offer. Nothing beats sitting around a campfire making some s'mores with good company.
Visit the Richland Area Farmers' Market
From the first Saturday of June, you can shop fresh produce from local vendors at the Richland Area Farmer's market. The market opens up at 8:15 a.m. on the Courthouse lawn and runs until around noon. Sample various dips, honey and other delicious food. Be sure to come with an empty stomach!
Explore Eagle Cave
One must see attraction in Richland County is Eagle Cave, Wisconsin's largest onyx cave. The cave has four levels to view with underground tunnels you can crawl into. Along with the cave, you can explore the campsite by hiking or geocaching. Make sure to bring clothes that can get a little messy, the cave is full of clay and mud.
Adventure in Pine River
Get out on the water by kayaking or canoeing on the Pine River. There are stretches of the river for more experienced paddlers, while other areas are great for learning how to kayak/canoe or to go tubing. No matter what level you are at, you are sure to have an adventure!
Enjoy the Outdoors at the Pine River Recreational Trails
Whether you're a hiker, a biker or just love nature, Pine River Recreational Trail is the right place for you. These scenic trails run along an abandoned rail bed where you can see a great view of the river bluffs. Try one of the marked bluff-top climbs for a challenge, or hit up an easier trail for a leisurely walk. There's something for everyone!
These five activities are a great start for any UW-Richland student interested in making the most of their time in college. What would you add to your college bucket list?

Or....Ummm....I mean "The National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum".
(It will always be "The Cowboy Hall of Fame" to me...just like the Science Museum of Oklahoma will always be the "Omniplex".)
Anyway...we took a home school field trip a couple weeks ago. Wednesdays are free!! The kids had so much fun - more than I thought they would. They really enjoyed all of the "hands on" activities in the children's area. Plus, they just loved playing outside in the leaves in the courtyard. Who can blame them??

Hail Storm in these Parts...
We were so worried about the Goose Family that lives in our backyard. We knew it was about to start hailing. We knew they would never come up on our patio OR let us catch them. So, they decided to stand at attention and wait it out. Thankfully, none of them were hurt. I always wondered what they might do in a hail storm. The just stood there, with their faces to the sky. They didn't move an inch. I've never seen anything like it. Fortunately, this was SMALL hail compared to what the rest of the city received. No damage here.

A Trip Back in Time - The Oklahoma Land Run at the Harn Homestead
We recently had the opportunity to participate in a reenactment of the Land Rush of 1889 - a land run in the unassigned lands of Oklahoma, Indian Territory. The rush took place in what is now known as Canadian,Cleveland, Kingfisher, Logan, Oklahoma and Payne counties. The land run started at high noon on April 22, 1889, with an estimated 50,000 people lined up for their piece of the available two million acres. We visited the Harn Homestead - here is a description from their website,
"Step back in time at the Historic Harn Homestead Museum. Learn about the territorial life of Oklahoma. This beautiful outdoor museum is original Land Run property and home to some of the most unique treasures of Oklahoma's past."
Here are some pictures of our fun!
These are the flags they made to "stake their claims!"
Lining up...waiting for high noon to take off for their land...
