Analyzing the Job of an Early Childhood Centre
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
A job analysis was conducted on a lady director of a children's centre. In this paper, she would be referred to as "jobholder", being the subject of my job analysis.
According to Pearn (1990), a job analysis is procedure that is systematically done in order to obtain detailed information regarding a job that is performed by a jobholder. It reflects the knowledge, skills, abilities and competencies that workers need in order to be efficient at work (SHL, 2001). Heathfield (2011) defines job analysis as "the process used to collect information about the duties, responsibilities, necessary skills, outcomes, and work environment of a particular job" (para. 1). That is exactly what this job analysis essay intends to present about the lady jobholder concerned.
The first step in this particular job analysis procedure was to approach the managing director of the early childhood centre discussing the possibility of her assistance in this assignment. I had to explain to her the purpose of this task and she readily agreed. I asked for her job description and she said that as a teacher, she believes that it is best to experience learning, so she recommended that I do job shadowing on two occasions to get a glimpse of her job. One day was a regular day on the job and the other day was observing her during a a special event which is the parent orientation. She said I could ask her questions along the way. So the methods used in this job analysis are job shadowing and interviews. Job shadowing entailed my tailing her in the performance of her tasks for the day as she explained them to me. She assured me that I was free to interview her informally should any queries come up on my side. The job analysis that follows includes information gathered from both job analysis methods for the smooth flow of the analysis.
Heading a children's centre entails a host of roles and responsibilities to keep it not only afloat but thriving at its optimal level. The jobholder is the managing director of a children's centre and its sister preschool. Her job is being in charge of the day-to day operation of the centre which includes the over-all management of all areas from the availability of supplies, to scheduling of staff, to interviewing parents and to budget considerations, among many other responsibilities. She is there to ensure that the centre runs smoothly. She also works with a Board of Directors composed mostly of volunteer parents. They make final decisions on some financial issues. Aside from management concerns, she also does strategic planning with staff for brainstorming other decisions for the centre and the children. Although she does not have a teaching load, she is on hand to lend her teaching skills as a reliever when necessary.
Culkin (1997) differentiates the roles of managers and leaders of institutions. Managers are involved with specific details of daily practice such as operational procedures, finances, and other policies while leaders are more involved with reflective, dynamic, value based planning and organizing. In other words, managers are concerned with setting up and managing systems while leaders give the school vision, direction, set standards and making tough decisions.
The jobholder's role is critical in the early childhood program she runs. She is a hands-on leader who needs to get into the nitty gritty details of each area of concern, as well as one who stands back to see the whole picture. According to her, the scope of her responsibilities may be overwhelming. However, since she aims for excellence, she takes all of these details to heart in order to provide a high quality of service to the community.
Many of the jobholder's roles and tasks are typical for directors of childcare centres such as personal management, staff management, training facility and maintenance management. Programming and managing children's curriculum are familiar tasks of directors as well as liasing with staff and families (Geoghegan, Petriwskgj, Bower 2003).
The jobholder is also accountable to the Board of Directors. She gives them information they need such as funding awards and presents them with options to enable them to make informed decisions. The Board makes final decisions mostly about financial/ budget issues.
As I did job shadowing, I wrote down my observations and insights of the jobholder. One of my first observations was her preoccupation with staff concerns. She claimed she had an early start to her day due to a phone call from one of her employees who cannot come to work because she was sick. Since then, my leader got busy reorganizing staff duties in order to accommodate the absence. If left with no choice, she is willing to be a reliever just so operations in the centre will not be disrupted.
One of the teachers stepped into her office just to share with her a picture of a platypus one of the children made. This showed that she is regarded as someone significant enough to share someone's delights with, even if she occupied a superior position over that person.
She also encourages her staff to attend trainings to hone their skills further by putting up paid training opportunity selections on the notice board. Teachers must remain open to new learning throughout their careers to allow for the development of new educational trends and perspectives. It is evident that early childhood leaders are needed to help influence, inspire and motivate staff to be their best. As an early childhood service Director it is crucial that he/she develops a knowledge of the various behaviours and techniques needed to help increase the effectiveness of the centre staff (Sullivan, 2003). Of course, as a teacher, she advocates high quality education for the children they serve. Her philosophy is that every child should have equal access to the service since he or she has he opportunity to reach his or her full potential.
Shoemaker (2000) contends that effective leadership 'is needed to foster purpose, creativity, imagination and drive' (p.41) within other members of staff. The jobholder is required to establish effective leadership skills and develop strategies that initiate intrinsic inspiration within employees and thus, enable them to function independently. Indeed, the jobholder is an important component of 'learning how to move from good practice towards best practice', (Rodd, 2006). Working this way, she is encouraging her employees to work towards their full potential and empower opportunities for a stimulating future within the Early Childhood field.
Although job shadowing has risks of the jobholder being uncomfortable, self-conscious or distracted by the constant following of an observer, it did not seem to be the case with my jobholder. Despite her very hectic schedule, she managed to accommodate me by granting a candid interview and allowing me to observe her in action. I gained so much from the experience, even subtle strategies she employs sycg as her hidden agenda of not setting out the chairs out during the parents' assembly to encourage them to mingle and socialize first and not to immediately find their own corners to sit and be isolated from the group.
I can see just how overwhelming her role was as a managing director, as she was always multi-tasking, and being productive at it. She says her management duties at the office takes much of her time away from the early childhood program, but I see that when in the presence of the children, she automatically shifts to the role of a caring early childhood professional. This, I witnessed when we visited the sister preschool as she encountered the young students, and during the parent interview with the new child, when she entertained him with a puzzle.
Her positive disposition is what draws people to her. Her staff is unafraid to approach her for any concern… be it inquiring about the payroll, negotiating job schedules or merely sharing an inspiring child's work done in class. Her multiple roles as an Early Childhood Centre Leader, she seems to perform at her best.
My job analysis concludes that the jobholder is an ideal, effective worker and leader of an institution.
Summary of Jobholder's Duties, Responsibilities and Work Competencies
Managerial Duties
The jobholder works on endless major tasks such as orchestrating staffing of teachers especially if one calls in sick; monitoring the centre and preschool of their adherence to high quality standards; interviewing prospective parents and briefing them of the centre's philosophy, policy and program; and on-the job training of staff as needed. She also does a lot of subsidiary work such as listing materials needed to be purchased; writing and printing the agenda of her meetings with parents and staff; overseeing the production of the monthly newsletter; coordinating with accountant regarding staff payroll; facilitating staff meetings among many others.
Organizational Skills
The jobholder is an expert in multi-tasking. In one of my shadowing sessions, I observed how many things she accomplished in one phone call. It seems as if she plans each detail before performing a task so she gets to accomplish a lot after she finishes one. She exerts best effort at the minimum amount of time. Time management is another thing she is adept at as she allots a certain amount of time for a task before she moves on to the next item on her agenda. During the job shadowing, she said we will swing by the sister preschool for a task she needed to do and be back to the centre after a few minutes for a parent interview. We were able to do so and in less than an hour, and she has accomplished everything on her "to-do" list. This she did effortlessly because she has had enough practice being a good manager of her time.
Social Skills
The jobholder has very good social skills. It does not matter whether she is faced with children or adults, but she manages to win their hearts and capture their minds when she interacts with them. During the parents' assembly, I thought not putting the chairs out was an oversight on her part and then I realized it was deliberate because she wanted them to mingle first before the meeting came to order. With children, she adjusts her demeanor to be developmentally-appropriate, so with younger children, she seems more caring and nurturing but with older children, she is more firm and expectant of their independence. She always gives due respect to each person she encounters and is always pleasant with them. With her staff, there is no doubt that she commands their respect as her presence is very arresting. However, she can be down-to earth especially when it comes to brainstorming for ideas. Her staff and teachers do not feel intimidated in sharing their ideas with her as she is very open and approachable.
Communication Skills
The jobholder always used a firm but gentle voice and knew how to use different tones and moods for different functions. For example, she was curt and businesslike on the phone when she ordered supplies. She was professional-sounding when she delivered her talk to the parents about the school philosophy, policies and program. She was always sweet and gentle with the children. Her written communication is also flawless. She is also very good in using the technology as a tool to communicate and network.

Mancini was quoted as saying he had been offered the chance to take over at the Stadium of Light, and hinted he would relish the opportunity to return to football after a 12-month absence.
But his agent, Giorgio De Giorgis, told PA Sport the Wearsiders had not been in touch, he said: "Mancini is aware of those reports. But we have not received an offer, nor have we been in touch with anyone from Sunderland."
Mancini has been out of work since leaving Inter Milan last summer shortly after leading them to a third successive Serie A title.
De Giorgis confirmed there was interest in his client from England but that no formal offer had yet been put to the 44-year-old.
"There has been interest from English teams but Sunderland is not one of them," he said.
"However, no official offers have been made."
Mancini was earlier quoted as telling Sky Italia: "I am honoured to have had an offer from Sunderland Football Club. It is a fantastic opportunity.
"It will be truly wonderful to lead such a prestigious and historic club in England after a year of sitting on the sidelines.
"I feel I am ready to start again with immense enthusiasm."

Why is it you never see little boys in shorts in November?
(41 Posts)Yet today I have seen several little girls in skirts and socks?
If it's too cold to wear shirts, surely it's too cold for a skirt without tights?
You just haven't seen my boys.
I hate to see children not dressed for the weather
My boy worked out earlier this year that if he didn't wear shorts he didn't need suncream. I've not got him to wear them since!
I taught some boys last week in short trousers.
When my son was at prep-school all the boys wore shorts and long socks all year round - when he moved on to a state school he still wanted to wear shorts but his teacher objected and sent me a letter saying it was a form of child abuse!!
You have not seen the kids round my way then!
I've seen a fair few grown men in shorts this weekend.
Fecking weirdos.
My DS constantly wears shorts out of choice. He does have trousers but chooses not to wear them. We live in the north of scotland.
I get lots of looks..... but figure if he was that cold he wouldn't wear them.
All the kids in the local prep school wear shorts all year round - it's actually one of the reasons I don't like those very traditional private schools, if feels like they're prioritising cute uniforms over children's comfort (and not in a tie and shirt on a toddler way, but in a bare knees in foot deep snow way)
Local boys school - primary aged boys all wear shorts with long socks. Mind you they are pretty long shorts and very long socks - so not much actual skin showing. And in really cold weather they tend to travel in waterproof trouser or their jogging bottoms and remove them on arrival.
DD has always prefered skirt and dress for school, rather than tights. She doesn't really feel the cold that much - not til it is much colder.
IME children, as soon as they are able, will shout up if they are too cold. We often forget how actiave many children are during the day and as a result they don't need to be quite as bundled up as more sedate adults are. Just look at your average primary school at playtime - we have to almost force some little ones to put coats on in the winter.
I always think it is also worth rememebering - it is usually far safer to be too cold than too hot, esepecially for babies and young children.
Ah, yes, the little ones are pre-prep aren't they.. not very familar with the lingo.. still 4 year-olds in shorts in the snow seems a bit off to me.
There was one in shorts and very short socks at the park today! Brrrrrr!
At my DSes school boys have to wear shorts all year round to the end of year 6.
Man shorts are essential dress for men of a certain age (over 25 less than 50) around here. That and shaving their balding heads.
Boys are not allowed man shorts until they reach maturity.
Same with our school - shorts all year round up to year 6 although they have long winter coats which go well past any bare flesh and can wear tracksuit bottoms if it's snowy. No complaints from my two boys.
I have not seen either...
I saw a couple of boys in shorts while shopping today. And sandals.
DH and DS both wear shorts all year round!!
Barmy they are!!
I may hide DS's soon though as he gets sore skin but wants to be like his dad!
I teach a lad who stays in shorts till around Christmas. It's a bit of a joke with us now and I always ask when trouser season is coming. His mum just rolls her eyes. Weirdly though he insists on wearing a warm coat out 'in case I get cold'.
Ds2 is still wearing shorts to school as an overkill from summer . I've suggested he put on long trousers but he said school was too hot and he runs around at playtime so he's not cold .
Overspill ! Bloody autocorrect
Given the chance one of mine would wear shorts all year round! DD refuses to wear anything other than a dress, and only with socks, as "Princesses don't wear tights"...
Couple of infants in shorts at DD2's school last week. It is v frosty though now so I don't expect many tomorrow.
Can't say the same for some of the Dads - PUT THEM AWAY!
Eldest boy is still in shorts, younger in trousers since half term.
Our postie wears shorts all year round.
And there used to be a chap in our town who wore shorts and no shoes, carried two Sainsburys bags around, presumably containing all he owned. I have just remembered that these were Sainsburys paper bags so was quite some years ago, I wonder what became of him?

The Dragons Den, where potential investors examine entrepreneurs, asks The Nuts Poker League 'Where are they now?' as they return for an update on their progress. The light-hearted poker league operates local games with results entered into a table. Every three months players compete for prizes provided by sponsors. The emphasis is clearly fun. On being asked, "How do you work?", league founder Steve Bellis instantly fired back with, "We work very hard, thank you." They certainly do: soon to launch in London, the league has clearly prospered, but unfortunately the Dragons have not. After the initial publicity generated by the program, the Nuts website was inundated with 50 hits per second. "That's a lot," said Steve. They were faced with a business decision; either go through weighty due diligence paperwork for their investors or simply get on with the job. In the end they chose the latter and tonight's programme should be interesting viewing, as the Dragons may have a growl about that. In addition to the Newsletter, The Nuts have also set up Poker Holidays. They are offering a week at the Sands Beach Resort in Costa Teguise, Lanzarote for less than £300. Along with the usual facilities of sun, sand, pools and apartments, bars, restaurants a gym and entertainment, the group will have their own private area for poker tournaments. Lots of families are booking the holidays because the facilities are so child-friendly that everyone will have something to enjoy. Other 'runners' on the holiday include the many people who have made friends through the league events.

alt flower arrangement: a little vase of herbs
We love this alt-flower arrangement spotted in Remodelista's post about Sitka & Spruce, a restaurant in Seattle: herbs – here, thyme and rosemary – in a little vase. (A pretty glass would do.) This would be especially great in high summer when herbs are abundant, fragrant and often in flower. We found this nice looking set of three bud vases on Amazon.

I have, for the last few months, been keeping a stoneware jar of fresh Italian parsley on the kitchen countertop. I think it last just as well as if it were in the fridge, and I find myself using it all the time since it's right THERE. And, of course, particularly cheering during these blizzardy months – almost as good as fresh flowers.
That's a really good idea. So herbs as USEFUL and visually pleasing flower arrangement…
REALLY great solution to a wedding conundrum. Thanks!
I use fresh basil and mint (I grow in posts). Aroma is great. Mint becomes a low-growing centerpiece and the basil is taller. Instantly available and using nice pots for planting, now arranging needed. Stems of each are also nice in vases in guest rooms and around house.

I bought a nightstand from Lisa and absolutely love it. Communication was quick and simple between her and I. The item arrived in reasonable time. I am very happy with my purchase. I would most certainly buy from her again in the future! Thanks Lisa! : )

Looking for the perfect sugar cookie cutout recipe for decorating cookies?
I am totally obsessed with decorating sugar cookies! I've spent the last two months of my life working on my cookie decorating skills and I gotta tell you … it has made me so happy! Cookie decorating has been very therapeutic for me and I want to introduce it to as many people as I can. If you are looking for a great way to relax while creating something extra special at the same time, cookie decorating just might be for you!
Take a look at some of the cookies I've made over the last couple of months!
Aren't these elephant cookies the cutest?! I made them for a friend that just had their first grand baby … Garner. His nursery is elephant-themed, so I customized these sugar cookies just for him.
I made these sock monkey cookies with chocolate chips for my son Brendan. I had so much fun making these. Both these and the elephants were made with royal icing transfers. Royal icing transfers are an easy way to make really beautiful cookies that need a lot of detail.
I totally fell in love with these doors with Christmas wreaths during the holidays. They made perfect gifts for my brokers' real estate clients. The kids really loved these snowman cookies. They are so simple but so stinking cute!
I've worked and worked through literally a hundred batches of sugar cookie dough to find a recipe that I think nails all of the qualities that I look for in a perfect sugar cookie cutout recipe.
This sugar cookie cutout recipe that I have developed has all of these great qualities and more!
- Sugar cookies have to be soft and stay soft. I HATE hard sugar cookies. I want my sugar cookie to have a soft buttery texture but still be able to hold it's shape while baking.
- They have to taste amazing. No bland, cardboard tasting sugar cookies please. Most of the sugar cookie recipes I've tried don't really have any flavor. Also, there never seems to be enough sugar in the recipes I've made in the past. This is a little ironic … don't you think? These ARE called "sugar cookies". By adding a little more sugar and also adding some citrus extract, this recipe has the perfect flavor. The citrus flavor in the cookie tastes so yummy with the flavor of the royal icing. Believe it or not, they actually taste really good without any frosting at all!
- The dough must hold the shape of the cookie cutter while baking. This recipe doesn't require you to chill the dough a second time after it's been rolled out. You can simply cut out your cookies after you've rolled out the dough and pop them in the oven. This removes a 15-20 minute step in the process so that you can get onto the fun stuff. Baking and decorating cookies … instead of taking up your entire refrigerator with baking sheets!
My tips for making the perfect sugar cookie cutouts!
- Use rolling pin guides to get an even thickness across the cookie. Nothing is worse than baking your cookies only to realize they are not an even thickness all the way across. It just looks bad, and I've had a hard time covering up this mistake with royal icing. You can also use a couple of unused paint sticks on either side of your dough to use as thickness guides for your rolling pin. I use a 1/4″ guide to roll out my dough. I like to make my cookies this thickness because they stay softer and when I'm decorating, the extra thickness makes it easier for me to turn the cookies without touching any of the wet frosting I've put on them. The worst thing when decorating with royal icing is to perfectly flood a cookie and then mess it up because your finger accidentally touches it!
- Always use parchment paper to line baking pans. This will prevent sticking and over-browning on the bottom of the cookies.
- Use light colored baking sheets when baking your sugar cookies. Darker colored baking sheets will cause the cookies to over-bake slightly.
- Use a fondant smoother to flatten the top of the cookies right when they come out of the oven. This will make it easier to decorate the cookies with royal icing. Press down very lightly because you do not want the cookie to lose it's shape. You don't want to flatten the whole cookie either, just smooth the top of the cookie. If you don't have a fondant smoother just use something that has a flat smooth surface.
- Always use ingredients that are at room temperature. This makes the ingredients easier to incorporate with each other and makes a smoother cookie dough.
- Don't over mix the dough. Mix until dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
- Bake until the cookies are just starting to turn a light golden brown. This is usually about 10-11 minutes for a cookie that is 1/4 inch thick. If you roll your dough thinner, bake for 8-10 minutes. Keep a close eye on them until you get to know your oven.
- If you do not have a convection oven, rotate the baking sheet 180° halfway through the baking time. This will help the cookies to bake evenly. Some ovens have hot-spots that cause cookies on one side of the oven to cook quicker than the other.
- Leave the cookies on the baking sheet after you remove them from the oven. I don't like to transfer to a cooling rack. I feel like the cookie still needs to cook a little after they've been removed from the heat of the oven. This may take a little trial and error on your part to get it perfect since every oven is different!
Please give my sugar cookie cutout recipe a try and I promise you'll be so happy that you did!
In the next couple of weeks, I'll be posting what I think are the essential tools you need in your "cookie decorating tool box". These are the tools that will help you to be a successful cookie decorator.
I'll also be sharing my recipe for royal icing so look for it soon!
- 2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 1 egg, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon orange extract OR lemon extract
- 4 cups all purpose flour, sifted
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar and butter on low speed for 3-5 minutes. The mixture should be light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and beat on low speed until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Add the extracts and mix until everything is combined.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and salt together.
- Add half the dry ingredients and 1 tablespoon of milk to the mixer and beat on low speed for about 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and then add the remaining dry ingredients and milk and continue to beat until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Form the dough into a flat disc and wrap with plastic wrap. Place into the refrigerator to chill for an hour and a half.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit out for about 10 minutes before rolling it out.
- Preheat your oven to 350°.
- Roll the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface until it is at about a ¼ inch thickness. Use rolling pin guides to help ensure that all of the dough is at an even thickness.
- Cut your shapes out of the rolled out dough, place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 8-12 minutes, turning halfway through baking time.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and leave them on the baking sheet to cool down completely before decorating.
Here's a video on how I decorated my sugar cookies for this recipe post!

I have taken an interest in tools that are no longer in production. This has meant going to great lengths to get the instruction manuals for these machines. I will continue to update this online manual section as I get more machines and their related manuals. The goal is to have an online reference so you good folks won't have to waste as much time as I did finding info on these machines. Enjoy.

The Best Way to Book Air Tickets for Your China Trip
For Malaysian tourists, the below online search engines are very helpful for investigating and ticketing airfare to and from each of our tours.
What about drinks?
A: Local tea is commonly served with meals and there is a variety of soft drinks, local and imported beers and wines available for purchase. You should not drink the tap water, bottled water is inexpensive and readily available. If you like a 'cuppa', you may like to bring along a small supply of tea bags, coffee and milk powder. Most rooms have electric jugs or thermos flasks of boiling water to make hot.
What are the toilet facilities like on tour?
A: All of our hotels have western style bathrooms and toilets. Obviously in the more remote areas, they may be a little more basic, but clean and simple is common. Whilst sightseeing, toilet facilities at restaurants and local tourist sites can vary and we would recommend that you carry tissues, wet wipes or disinfectant gel with you, "just in case".
What should I pack?
A: Casual clothing is appropriate at all times although clothes that are too revealing are still frowned upon in all over China. Try to pack lightly as your trip may involve an amount of personal baggage handling as porters are often not available except in larger hotels. For security reasons it is essential that your baggage can be locked whilst during air transportation between cities. At times, you may not be able to check into your hotel room immediately or be able to access your main bags. To ensure your comfort, a change of clothes in your hand luggage to coincide with local weather conditions is always handy. All personal toiletries should be taken with you and small packets of tissues or wet wipes are recommended. A small medical kit containing medication to alleviate common ailments is suggested.

This clip comprises scenes from the 2011 film "Razend." I've honestly never before seen a film which attempts to deal with the issue of sexual harassment in a completely serious attempt that fails so horribly in so doing, and instead comes across as being this comical just because of how staged, forced, and unrealistic all of the scenes are. The director, Dave Schram, is indeed a sappy melodramatic canker sore on Dutch cinema. I've watched all of his movies. His movies are like if the Disney channel became mainstream and produced strings of family oriented movies that deal with serious issues like human trafficking, suicide, sexual exploitation, and stalking, in a cream puff sort of way that leaves you nauseous. They're all horrible, most of them laughably so, and they are subjects of ridicule. He is the Tommy Wiseau of Dutch movies, the problem is, in the Netherlands, a lot of people ACTUALLY took him seriously, and he made 5 more terrible movies! To me, that's still a good thing, but only because I have a strong penchant for anti-humour in films. But why stop there? Let's break down how he crafts a scene. At 0:39 it's the end of the school day, and the other teacher just goes away leaving his classroom completely open. Normally teachers always wait for everyone to leave, and lock up, but it's a Dave Schram movie, so instead, he wants the entire school to vandalize his classroom. Also, when Roos leaves the room, she's the very last one out, and far behind everybody. Why? Because if she was the first one out, all the other students would question why the hell the math teacher was aggressively accosting Roos and shoving her into the open classroom of the one teacher who runs home and never locks his fucking door. This would ruin EVERY shred of integrity in this entire garbage screenplay, not to mention, it would be a more complicated scene for poor Dave Schram to shoot. These two factors make the scene extremely forced, and would usually never happen in real life. More importantly though, as far as character development goes, the math teacher is supposed to be very popular with the students, and he hasn't done anything wrong yet, so at this point in the movie, not only does the scene look weird, but the strong negative reaction of Roos doesn't really make sense. Just after, when Roos leaves the school, once again NOBODY sees the math teacher chasing her, because for some unknown reason, despite the fact that school just ended, nobody else is around. Hiring extras does cost money after all, but let's forget about that for now. Instead, let's think about things from a sex predator's perspective. If you're a sex predator, how in any way does it serve your uncontrollable boner to chase her down the school court in broad daylight? You're obviously not going to rape her, and she already said no to tutoring, so what could it possibly accomplish to run after her that way other than terrorizing her, and tearing down the bond of trust that you built up with her and her friends up til that moment, which more importantly, may cause her to ACTUALLY report you for harassment? You wouldn't do it, not even if you were the dumbest sex predator in the world! When I first saw the movie, I really had no idea what was going on at this point. They forced the sexual harassment sub-plot so much that you question if that's even what you're witnessing. It's true that there are a lot of cases where teachers prey on students, but in real life it's much more subtle. Most of the time in those cases, the student is groomed by the teacher, and he or she ONLY proceeds with the student if the student does indeed express a degree of interest in return. What else can I say? It's just a bad movie, and it's an insult to anyone who truly had to deal with sexual harassment. For more information about the film, including reviews, click the following link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1980219/?... The music used in the chase scene is "Yakety Sax," popularly known as the theme of "The Benny Hill Show," performed by The Edwin Davids Jazz Band: https://play.google.com/music/preview... http://www.emusic.com/album/-/-/11921... https://itunes.apple.com/album/benny-.......

SHARES in cash machine operator Cardpoint were up four per cent today after the company announced strong trading in its first quarter.
The statement pushed shares in the firm, which owns and operates 2,800 cash machines in railways stations, roadside services and leisure centres, up 5.5p to 135.5p.
The company's cash points currently dispense é300m each month and charge customers up to é1.75 to withdraw money. It recently bought 816 machines from HBOS, and also operates around 600 free cash dispensers across the UK.
Chief executive Mark Mills said the first quarter results were encouraging. éTo date all our targets, both for integration of the HBOS acquisition and completion of the integration by September 2005, are being met.
éWe now operate 51 machines in Germany and our expansion in this market is particularly exciting.é
Cardpoint announced a threefold increase in turnover last year, up from é12.2m to é36.8m, with profits of é1.8m. The company is already anticipating é80m turnover this year, with pre-tax profits likely to be in the region of é8m.
The Blackpool-based firm also owns 4,000 mobile top-up terminals that sell around é85m of airtime each year.

For all the times she's gotten on his nerves, even in a drunken stuper he can't escape the nagging, the badgering.

You poor sap!
so you are his ex, and he broke up with you??

if its a recent break up its still going to be affecting him, esp if you where together for a long time or you shared something of high importance, like virginity, first serious relationship etc..

dont read too much into it, and if you are wanting to stay single maybe you should put some distance between you both so as not to complicate things.

or would you like to get back with him??

___________________________________

if i was in your shoes i would give it a few more days, write down my thoughts and feelings, and if say 3-4days later i still wanted to talk to him. i would. Maybe meet up for a coffee keep it light, not a date, just two mates meeting up. maybe you could work things out, but you have to remember you did break up for a reason. sometimes time apart isnt enough to fix the problems which you had previously!!

_______________________________

can i ask why did you break up??

you could possibly ask through the friend that told you about this incident, that way if he says no its not directly to you and wont hurt as much

______________________________

given everything you have told me, i dont think a reunion will be on the cards. your on fbook and if he really wanted to get in touch, he very easily could have!! i would put this all down to alcohol and find a gy who genuinely does want to be with you and would do anythin for you!! you deserve some one who is prepared to walk the earth for you!!

____________________________

he has blocked you on facebook!! hes defo not worth it then, but if you really need to get that final closure, text his friend, more private that way. Good luck and let me know how you get on hunny xx
in your quest to search for meaning in what is irrelevant you'll lose what you have

edit

well if he was calling out for you it probably means that you still have his heart even though he'd not be caught dead admitting to it

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
My practice philosophy is simple. I believe that the establishment of a trusted partnership between the physician and the patient is the foundation to consistent and ongoing health care. Treat people like you'd want to be treated... with sincerity and in a friendly, mutually respectful manner, absent of judgment. Be knowledgeable. Be collaborative. Be empathetic. As physicians, we don't always have all of the answers, but we can work together as a team to learn as much as possible. I look forward to the privilege of being not only your partner in health, but a trusted friend and confidant as well.Physician Profile

The Canon EOS 5D Mark III Is Here!
Join ePHOTOzine for free and remove these adverts.
And what is it with video on cameras these days????......I don't want it, I don't need it, but if I did I'd buy a decent video camera! Why add to the cost of this for something I'm never ever going to use or require???? It was one of the reasons for sticking with a 50d over a 60d when I wanted an extra body a while ago, I just didn't want to pay for the extra cost for something I didn't require. Come on Canon give us a decent prosumer body without chuffing video and lower the bleeding cost. Were supposed to in a world recession, the rate you're carrying on all you're going to do is shoot yourselves in the foot as nobody will bother upgrading until it's absolutely necessary! Just like I'm going to now, my pair of 50d's do all I need them to do and are perfectly adequate and the quality is still good enough. You'll have to drop the price on this MKIII substantially before you can convince me to make a purchase!
Quote:£2999?!!!!!! Are they out of their mind?
I might join the dark side then......LOL
Its £500 more then both the Mk2 and 1 launched for. Given the updates seem fairly minor, it does seem crazy to bump the price in such a way.
However we hae not seen what this camera can do at high ISO - and also its interesting the 5D3 has the same AF as the 1dx.... Shows that this camera is not only replacing the 5D2.... but 1Ds3 also.
Quote:The EOS 5D Mark III comes complete with the most advanced version of Digital Photo Professional (DPP) yet Canons free, in-box software enabling high-speed, high quality processing of RAW images. New in DPP v3.11 is Digital Lens Optimizer a revolutionary new tool designed to drastically improve image resolution.
Hmmm, I wonder if this will be compatable with older 5Ds?
Quote:the price will fall almost as certainly as night follows day as will the price of the new Nikon models, when new DSLRs are launched with the usual inane fanfare of trumpets patience is not only a virtue but also rewarding if you need to "upgrade".
The price will certainly fall. It was interesting that the 'glide down' on prices or the 5d2 mirrored almost exactly what happened with the original 5D. However this one is starting £500 higher.
Therefor I predict that in 6 months time, the 5D3 will be selling from around £2200 - but that is still a big jump from where the previous models were.
Allthough I belong to the dark side I happen to agree with Ade on this.
Stop putting in the video garbage and give us a decent DSLR at a decent price.
Why not produce to versions one with and the other without the video,it cant be that difficult surely
The prices will certainly fall its allready happenning with "our" new releases

Motorbike manufacturers are riding a wave of swinging '60s nostalgia with new models seeking to capture revived interest in the classic looks of the period — with demand helped by fashionista-in-chief David Beckham.
Royal Enfield, an Indian-owned manufacturer of British heritage, is the latest to try its luck with a new bike inspired by the "cafe racers" seen around London in the late 1950s and 1960s.
These single-seater two-wheelers were some of the quickest of their day, modified and driven at the highest speeds possible by their young male riders dressed in the "rocker" fashion of the era.
After a trip in search of the mythical "ton" — 100 miles (161km) per hour — they would retire to the Ace Cafe in northwest London for cups of tea, making it a famous meeting point for bikers, which remains to this day.
"We believe that cafe racing was around in the most beautiful and the best time of motorcycling," Enfield chief executive Siddhartha Lal said at a launch event for the motorbike in India last month.
The looks were very specific and have been reproduced faithfully in the new versions: striped back, dropped handle bars, long fuel tank and a single seat. Leather jackets and open-face helmets come as optional accessories.
Royal Enfield, whose sales have quadrupled in the past four years thanks to booming demand for its classic "Bullet" model in its domestic Indian market, is following in the footsteps of other famous British names.
Triumph sells a "Thruxton" cafe racer, a beefed-up and modified version of its classic "Bonneville" model, while Norton has a waiting list for its equivalent, the "Commando 961."
With new launches and fashion on their side, both companies are putting past bankruptcies behind them.
For Enfield, owned by heavy vehicle and busmaker Eicher, net profit totaled 2.1 billion rupees (US$34 million) in the nine months to September, up 91 percent on the same period last year.
Other companies looking to bygone years for inspiration for their latest models include Moto Guzzi with its "V7 Racer" and BMW with its recently unveiled "NineT."
Triumph's sales and marketing director Paul Stroud referred to a "resurgence in classic motorbiking" at a recent company event.
The new branded bikes are themselves production-line versions of one-off retro models that have been made by niche customizers in Europe, Australia, the US and Japan for decades.
Known variously as cafe racers, brat-style or bobbers, these bikes are ridden by enthusiasts or hipsters seeking to ape the looks of legendary silver screen bikers of the mid-20th century like Steve McQueen or Marlon Brando.
Their ranks were joined recently by former England soccer captain and model David Beckham, who has been pictured riding a bobber — a fully customized model based on a modified Harley-Davidson.
The editor of Bike, Britain's biggest-selling monthly motorbiking magazine, said that Harley Davidson had been the most successful over the years in selling the heritage of their brand.
"What's been building for a while is people like Triumph and Enfield delivering a cafe racer version of that," editor Hugo Wilson said.
He says the popularity of classic-looking bikes can be attributed to two factors, firstly that "modern bikes are getting to the point that are way beyond the capability of most people."

I just wanna say thank you to the eds for providing some nice info every now and then, not takin to much piss from plebs, and ading in some funny jokes from time to time. But i'm not going to be reading this site anymore, its embarrising to see all this people claiming to be fans just talking smack and harrasing the players. Very few people seems to actually know the game at all, and are just using the site to be trolls. Sadly this page has become more toxic than fun so peace out.
1.) 02 Jun 2016 20:57:28
I actually agree. If the Eds didn't post such excellent insights and accurate information this site wouldn't be worth the stress.
The quality of the posts has declined significantly. Slagging off our captain was the final straw for me. I'm just here now for Ed001, 002, 007, 091, Square Tomato and Macca as they provide info you can't get elsewhere. Ed033 deserves a special mention as he makes it all possible. To be fair to the Eds as well, they have to put up with the drivel we do and what I can only assume is far worse drivel which doesn't even get posted. So hats off to them for not only putting up with it, but continuing to provide us with such wonderful info free of charge.

Im only here for Ed002's info. I hope he can see sense as to not punish us all just because there are some morons on this site. Ban them, dump their posts but don't be with holding great insight because of a few arseholes.

In my experience, the best way to treat Trolls is to starve them of the attention and reaction that they desire.
If I were the Eds I would decrease the number of posts sent through from these idiots and as such negate their ability to cause such hysteria and conflict on the pages. Their posts won't be missed and soon they'll stop bothering.
The sooner the better really so we can't start getting this page back to what it once was.

I would say ignore the trolls Eds. Just don't post their replies, and I am sure I speak for the majority on this website when I say that we would love for Ed002 to be back.

it is naïve to think you can come on to a free site and avoid the trolls. Can we stop being so precious and just go about our business and not let gutless hate merchants win?

hey guys what have i missed? MKS I value your opinion and you sound pi$$ed when your normally so level headed, what the hell has been going on?

I know he hasn't been manager for long, and never at top level. But i'd love to hear the eds opinion on Niko Kovac?
{Ed001's Note - try the Euro Soccer site as he has nothing to do with Liverpool.}

Maybe Matthias Sammer is ready to start working again? That would be great, we have lots of Germans in our staff, and he would be brilliant. :D unrealistic, i know.

I have no grasp about economy at all, but how is it that clubs with 2-3 times the debts of LFC can buy players for 100-200 millions every year, and pay 2-3 times the wages to players. While LFC can't buy anything without selling their best players every year?

Actually Annie is correct, he did play CB when he was younger.

Coutinho has a goal/ assist every 70 min he plays, dropping him down to cm would be a huge waste imo.

Suarez, Coutinho, Firmino and Can were all well known players/ talents when we got them.

Chirivella is hopefully getting his chances next season, very talented guy.

Damn i should have checked before i posted, i was so sure :D Yes they have a lot of very good GK, and i think its great we now have one of them in our team. Give Karius some time to adapt and he will be great.

I might be wrong on this one, but wasnt Oliver Baumann bundesliga GK of the year last season?

Bellerin is no better than Clyne at all, he is just very fast, i like that you atleast used another player in comparisson, instead of just saying Clyne is bad like most other people. I would love to hear who people would replace him with, that is so much better?

Maybe they have seen that we need a cb when Lovren and Matip is not available, and surerly Sakho is way above Klavan, Lucas and Gomez.
