Curriculum Information
PSHE represents Personal Social and Health Education.
We have a range of compulsory topics such as; How to recognise, understand and build healthy relationships, How relationships may affect health and wellbeing, including mental health, safety online. It also covers factual knowledge at secondary school, around sex, sexual health and sexuality, Healthy bodies and lifestyles, including keeping safe, puberty, drugs and alcohol education.
It also helps students to prepare for the workplace and making a positive contribution to society.
As well as this we have the flexibility to incorporate learning specific to the students of Hanham Woods Academy.
PSHE is not an assessed subject but it is a vital one equipping our students with life skills and dealing with real life issues to ensure their education is holistic and meets both their pastoral and academic needs.
Every year group will have one timetabled lesson per week. The code on timetables will be PS.
What students at Hanham Woods are saying about PSHE:
"It is my favourite lesson"
"I wish we had more than one lesson a week"
"We should learn more about this "stuff" it is so important"
We have a strong team of staff delivering PSHE across all 5 year groups, with staff bringing their expertise from a variety of subject areas.
The PSHE Curriculum Map sets out an overview of the curriculum in Personal Social and Health Education (PSHE) from Years 7 through to Year 11. Among other things, it sets out what is studied, why it is studied, as well as the keywords needed in each year. Students and parents are likely to find this useful.
Each term students have a key focus for the term. The lessons aim to inform students as well as giving them the opportunity to ask questions, present ideas and discuss issues. Each term an extended piece of writing is used to culminate the overall study or one aspect within it.

Although PSHE does not carry a qualification or indeed lead to a particular course of study or profession, the content covered within these lessons will be invaluable to students for the rest of their lives.
The aim of PSHE is to provide holistic education that enables students to take part positively in society, have confidence and know their self-worth, have tools to help cope with difficult situations or life experiences and know how to complete a tax return or understand their pay slip.
Our aim is that the personal, social and health education they receive during their time at HWA remains with them for their entire life beyond.
There are opportunities for students to take an even greater role in their PSHE experience through clubs such as LGBTQ group, the role of being a peer mentor, personal development days and work experience.

Fair Trade Certified™ sewn
Fair Trade Certified™
We pay a premium for every Fair Trade Certified item that carries our label. That extra money goes directly to the workers at the factory, and they decide how to spend it. The program also promotes worker health and safety and social and environmental compliance, and encourages dialog between workers and management.
Organic Cotton
In 1996, with an increased awareness of the dangers of pesticide use and synthetic fertilizers in growing conventional cotton, we began the exclusive use of organically grown cotton in all of our cotton products.
The quality of organic cotton is equal to or better than conventionally grown cotton, yet organically grown methods support biodiversity and healthy ecosystems, improve the quality of soil and often use less water. Growing organically takes more time, requires more knowledge and skill, and, for now, costs more. But it's worth it.
To ensure we are buying cotton that is organic as defined by the USDA's National Organic Program, we require numerous certificates issued by an accredited third-party certification body for every step of the supply chain, from farm to factories.

Catherine Wheel Brooch
A Catherine wheel brooch has a central hub and at least eight radiating spokes. The name comes from its resemblance to the St. Catherine torture wheel (also known as a breaking wheel.) While the name is still popular today, Catherine wheel brooches had their heyday in the 18th century.

I have been attending the SLA (Strategic Leadership Association) retreats for years now. Each one has given me some new tools and techniques to better my business. The topics are always something useful to the business world but not why I attend. I attend because of the wealth of knowledge in the room at each retreat. The room is filled with business owners and managers that have a combined knowledge far greater than anything I could have imagined. Being able to hear how they have improved their businesses, what has worked, what hasn't worked and where they plan to get to in the future and how they will get there has been immeasurable in terms of value.

Measure what really matters in your construction business
There are two major requirements for growth and success of a construction company; profitable customers and happy customers. We all measure profit at least to some degree, but do we measure customer happiness? The next question is, how the heck to you do that?
Not all profit is good profit. If you cut corners to save money, how would this hurt long term customer relations? If you made money, but lost a customer would it be worth it? The basic rule of thumb is a happy customer tells 1 person a bad customer tells 10.
In the book the "The Ultimate Question by Fred Reichheld" he discusses how we need to "Stop measuring things that don't matter to your customer"
He goes on to state:
What he is saying, is that for each construction company, we need to focus on what we do well and how we can delight the customer. We need to ensure that all employees are focused on delivering what we promise the customer, every time.
Therefore, to determine how happy our customers are let's Ask the ultimate question and very little else. "Would you recommend our company to your friends and associates? Rank from 0-10
Analysis shows that, on average, increasing the net promoter score by a dozen points versus the competitors can double the company's growth rate. We at Asyma Solutions live by this same measurement. If we as a company are really providing value to our customers with our products or services, then our customers would gladly recommend us. This applies to construction companies as well. Therefore, lets measure what really matters, what does the customer really think.
Topics: Business Process, Guiding Great Businesses, Customer Satisfaction, Net Promoter Score, Customer Service

When Elena's company was acquired by IBM, she found herself at a career crossroads: look for another job, or stay through the transition? Choosing the latter changed the way she viewed change and allowed her to grow, learn, and pursue her passion.
by Elena Musat
I became an IBMer by chance. 15 years ago I was a teacher. One of my foreign students who was learning Romanian decided to start up a software business and asked me to set up and manage the development center in Romania. The startup became successful and, 13 years later, it was acquired by IBM.
The news that the small startup was acquired by a big company was bittersweet: on the one hand, a feeling of loss and uncertainty, on the other hand a feeling of pride and curiosity. My colleagues and I went from being one in a company of 40 to being one in a company of almost 400,000. Despite all the great communication and reassuring news during the acquisition, I couldn't help but wonder "Do I have a place in a big company?", "Would I become a number on an ID badge in the sea of hundreds and thousands of employees?"
There were at least two options ahead of me: (1) find another job or (2) focus on the transition and integration process and wait to see what happens next. I chose the latter, seeing change as an opportunity to grow.
While in IBM, I explored opportunities that will allow me to pursue my passion for learning. I have always been driven by my strong belief that education can change lives and that lifelong learning is at the core of personal and professional growth. A year and a half into the integration, I am now coordinating learning at the IBM Romania Software Lab and I love my job. Moreover, I became a co-leader the Technical Expert Council (TEC) Romania, an IBM Academy of Technology Affiliate, supporting the technical community in IBM Romania.
Changing the Way I View Change
The experience of this acquisition altered the way I viewed change. What if we started seeing change as the very essence of our work life, not as an occasional disruptor? Change takes us out of our comfort zone; so does improvement, learning and growth.
We are living in an age of continuous change – we shop differently, we travel differently, we communicate differently, the list goes on. We are living through a fundamental transformation in the way we work. The secret of a bright career does not depend on the size of the company we are working with or on the career path we choose. It is our adaptability, flexibility, and ability to reinvent ourselves. It's time to get our skills in order and never stop learning. Skills that are needed now and in the future are not limited to technical skills. Human skills are always important: adaptability, resilience, authenticity, self-awareness, self-confidence, enthusiasm, sense of humour, collaboration, conflict resolution, humility, empathy, kindness. Remain open to new ideas, commit to lifelong learning and help others grow!
Elena Musat, is part of the Learning team at the IBM Romania Software Lab & is the co-leader of TEC Romania (Technical Expert Council Romania, IBM Academy of Technology Affiliate). She is a Montessori mom and an active supporter of alternative education in Romania. Outside of her job, Elena also loves gardening in her 20 sqm urban garden and runs Montessori School and Garden, a project that aims to encourage gardening in small places, from a young age.

Day 12/365
On a day like today, I feel Starbucks is a necessity. Ask my sister, my husband, or even my kids and they will agree (that Starbucks is a necessity for me...cold and snowy outside or not). When my kids tag along, Ayv requests hot chocolate while Ayla asks for "appuh jew". Ayden will usually have what Ayla is having. Thankfully they have kid sizes and pricing! My "Four Bucks", as Levi says, becomes six or seven bucks when they are with me.
I'm definitely ready for spring, but that won't change the desire for my venti nonfat beverage of choice.

Word Dancing
Word Count 404
By Nan Ressue
"Come on pig. If you are going to travel with us, you're going to have to step it up," ordered the sheep leading the flock.
"Yeah, yeah, I know all your complaints," the goat chimed in. "Short legs, dragging belly and you forgot your lunch. Even dummies know we have to get there before the sun comes up so we can still see the star."
I'm far too refined to point out that sheep are stupid and have no mind of their own and that goats are gluttonous and ignorant risk takers. I, on the other hand prefer the finer things and am preparing for my dancing debut. But both the shepherds and the farmers are following this star to a rendezvous which has no equal. I hear that the family we will visit is in a barn so animals would be welcome too, right? Nobody will notice if a medium sized pig slips in, right?"
"Oh merciful heavens! I hope it's not much further. That arrogant sheep does realize that short legs go twice as far as long legs and for some reason the curl is gone out of my tail. Just when I wanted to look nice.
I'm glad we're nearly there. I think I can see the shed.
We all crept quietly into the barn so as to not wake up the baby. There was the beautiful young mother, smiling and beckoning us to come closer.
"Oh dear. Where did my manners go? I forgot my present for the baby. Good thing it's dark so nobody can see that my snout is turning red."
Hmmm…I wonder if that boy with the drum standing in the corner would play a rhythm for me? Maybe tonight is the time for my debut!
With a yes for the answer, I bowed to the mother and the babe and took my position in front of the manger. Rata tat, rata tat, rata tat tat tat beat the drum. Sway left, sway right, circle and bow, sway again, rise up on two feet and twirl for a grand finish… Was it OK?," I thought to myself. "Did they like it?"
The mother smiled and my heart was full.
A wonderful warm feeling made me turn to look over my shoulder and watch my drooping tail slowly begin to form the most beautiful spiral . What a fine night this is turning out to be!

Communicating throughout HR disruption is critical—implement these 3 suggestions for a mindful, organized approach
Posted by Lauren Mace and Melissa Yim on September 4, 2019.
Is any HR organization immune to disruption? Probably not in today's world—organizations across industries and markets should consider changing if they hope to keep pace with disruptions in work, workplaces, and how work gets done. Regardless of the source of disruption—harmonizing a total rewards program, a cloud or other technology implementation, a performance management shift—communicating with employees as changes unfold is as important as the work you do to implement the change itself.
Proactive, not reactive. How well you communicate throughout a disruptive event instills a sense of confidence in employees that "you got this." It also builds trust that you are considering their interests and recognize them as important stakeholders with a role in how successful the change ultimately turns out to be.
How can you most effectively add "Communicate" to your already long to-do list? Organization is key. Remember that HR changes aren't happening in a silo, so it's essential to look more broadly at what the organization is facing, what changes are coming up, and even what "business as usual" activities or events are on tap. Keeping the big picture in mind says to employees that you are approaching the disruption in an intentional and organized way.
Planning is critical. Depending on the disruption, decisions may be made quickly or at the last minute. Changes may be impacting all other areas of the business and not just HR. The disruption may be emotional or make employees feel uncertain about their future. And through it all, the daily work needs to continue. Organized communications allow you to address changes in a manner that is planned, considers the holistic experience (no silos here), and takes advantage of the opportunity to strengthen the relationship between employees and the organization.
Here are three suggestions to keep communications organized, timely, mindful, and on point.
1. Design a strategic communications strategy.
To be strategic in how and what you communicate, you must understand at a very detailed level what is changing and take the next step to know what the changes mean for employees. Something that doesn't seem like a big change in the context of the overall disruption (e.g., learning to access and navigate a new HR platform) may need to be prioritized in a communication because the impact on employees is significant and disruptive. Build these high-impact activities into the plan as you develop your overall communications strategy and the specific communications within it.
- Create an identity for the change—a name, a logo, a look and feel that brand the effort and help it stand out among all the communications employees receive day to day.
- Identify key messages, grounded in the positives of the HR changes as much as possible, while always being honest.
- Develop a timeline so communications roll out in an orderly and mindful way.
- Compose a narrative to explain the change through corporate storytelling, weaving executive and transformational messaging throughout the communications.
- Keep communications simple and organized, with consistent content built around the underlying key messages. People consume information in bite-sized pieces today, so strive to use fewer words and more illustrations and infographics.
2. Take an employee experience-centric approach.
High-performing organizations are 1.7x more likely to report that "employee experience" is an HR leader and C-suite priority in their organization.1 As Deloitte's 2019 Global Human Capital Trends report notes, employee experiences that build enduring relationships and create meaning at work are focused on the individual. It's particularly important in times of disruption that you think from the employees' perspective.
- Think about likely questions employees will have and the key pieces of information they need to answer them…How do I access the enrollment site or the new HRIS or my compensation statement? Where can I find my password? What is being offered to me or asked of me? How soon must I take action?
- Be clear about timelines, so people know what needs to be addressed now and what is coming up that will be important to address in the future.
- Make information easy to find and accessible. Employees shouldn't feel lost or unsure of where to go with questions. Post information regularly and communicate where that information can be found.
- Open channels for two-way dialogue. Leverage champions, trusted managers in local locations, internal social media, and the like to understand what questions people have and get a sense of how the information is being received and what you should adjust, if necessary, to address concerns or prevent issues.
- Be authentic—the best way to reach humans is through humans! Communicate with empathy that you understand what's most important to them. For example, you know that their compensation and benefits are paramount; that they have a lot on their plates and need to be able to get their work done efficiently; that change is unsettling, to say the least. To the extent that things are remaining the same, convey that. To the extent that HR business partners are in the mix and can be a resource, and/or in-person HR meetings or webinars are possible, communicate that.
3. Engage leaders to champion the change.
People want to know that the organization believes in the change and the direction the organization is going, and leaders put a face to that confidence. Starting with high-level leaders first and then cascading down, leaders should be in the forefront to show they support the message and the reasons behind the disruption.
Depending on the source of the disruption, it may take some planning for the communications team to stay in sync with the messages organizational leaders are sharing. For example, in the case of an M&A, HR may need a designated internal resource who can answer questions and help HR be proactive in understanding what changes or transitions are upcoming more broadly. In coordination with the broader plan, HR can determine when and how their information can be shared with employees.
Finding the opportunity in disruption
Disruption is largely unavoidable in today's working world, so why not use it to your advantage? How you approach and communicate throughout disruption can make all the difference, not only in the ultimate success of the disruptive event itself but also in keeping employees engaged and committed to the organization's success. In short, by minimizing disruption you can increase the chance of obtaining the expected results.

Nominees must be MMS members in good standing. Nominations are requested for the following positions: • MMS president-elect • MMS secretary-treasurer • MMS board representatives (4) • CMA delegate • CMA alternate delegate All positions require a three-year commitment, beginning July 1. Nominations can be e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com, faxed to 924-2749, or mailed to MMS, PO Box 246, Corte Madera 94976. Each nomination should include a brief statement about the nominee's qualifications.Act now to prepare for new Tdap booster lawUnder a new law, all California students in grades 7-12 will need proof of a Tdap booster shot before starting school next fall. Act now to ensure your adolescent patients are protected against the ongoing threat of pertussis by taking the following steps: View the free one-hour CME webcast, "Shots For School: Clinicians' Role in California's New Tdap Requirement," available at www.uctv.tv/capertussis/. Send reminder and recall phone calls and notices to your patients who have not yet received a Tdap booster, including those who have received a dose of Td but not Tdap. Order enough Tdap vaccine to immunize your patients affected by the new law. Before ordering, ensure you have adequate storage in your vaccine refrigerator for your orders. In many clinics, multiple orders will be indicated. Immunize with Tdap now at every opportunity, including sports physicals and visits for mild illness or injury, and give other recommended immunizations: meningococcal conjugate, HPV, influenza, and any catch-up doses of varicella, MMR, and hepatitis B. Provide clear and accurate documentation about Tdap immunization for your patients and their schools. Vaccines have similar names and abbreviations, e.g., Tdap, Td, DTaP, DT—which can be confusing to school staff who will be keeping records for the new law. If you use the California Immunization Registry, consider printing out a copy of the Blue Card after Tdap has been given for the student to take to school. For additional information on the new Tdap school requirement, visit www.ShotsForSchool.org.RSVPs needed for Legislative Day in SacramentoLocal physicians interested in attending CMA's free Legislative Leadership Conference in Sacramento on April 5 should RSVP by March 31.

The course, which offers up to 1.25 hours of Category 1 credit, compares different HIV testing technologies and describes key features of pretest and post-test counseling. An estimated 25% of HIV-infected people in the United States are unaware of their status, and the CDC recently recommended that all patients 13-64 years old be screened for HIV. Physicians considering switching to electronic medical records can estimate savings and return on investment (ROI) by using the ROI Calculator, a new resource from CMA. To use the free calculator, visit www.cmanet.org/roi and answer a few basic questions about your practice. You will then be able to estimate your administrative savings, how much you qualify for in federal incentive payments, and what the overall ROI would be for converting to electronic health records.

If your service is on the service.gov.uk subdomain you must use the GDS Transport font.
You should use an alternative typeface like Helvetica or Arial for services that are publicly available on different domains.
If you're not sure whether you should be using GDS Transport, read the Service Manual guide on making your service look like GOV.UK or contact the Design System team.
Use headings consistently to create a clear hierarchy throughout your service.
Mark up headings semantically using the appropriate <h#> level HTML element and use a heading class to apply the GOV.UK styling.
For long form content use the corresponding size class. For example an

 should use
govuk-heading-xl, an

 should use
For question pages and other short form content, try using the corresponding size class first. But change it if it makes the page feel unbalanced. For example, if you're using an especially long question as your

, try using
govuk-heading-l for the
govuk-heading-l for the

 and so on.
Write all headings in sentence case.

govuk-heading-xl

govuk-heading-l

govuk-heading-m

govuk-heading-s

Headings with captions
Sometimes you may need to make it clear that a heading is part of a larger section or group. To do this, you can use a heading with a caption.
If the caption should be considered part of the page heading, you can also nest the caption within the H1.
The default paragraph font size is 19px on large screens and 16px on small screens.

govuk-body

You can also add classes to create a lead paragraph or smaller body copy to convey hierarchy in your page.
Lead paragraph
A lead paragraph is an introductory paragraph that you can use at the top of a page to summarise the content. Lead paragraphs use 24px type on desktop and should only be used once per page if needed.

govuk-body-l

Body small
You can use the
govuk-body-s class sparingly to make your paragraph font size smaller: 16px on larger screens and 14px on smaller screens.
The majority of your body copy should use the standard 19px paragraph size.

govuk-body-s

Font override classes
You might need to set the font size or font weight of an element outside of the predefined heading and paragraph classes. For this you can use the font override classes in your HTML or reference the typography mixins in your own components.
Font size
The full GOV.UK typography scale goes from 14px up to 80px on large screens. You can add these font size override classes to any other typographic class or element and they will change the font size.

govuk-!-font-size-80

govuk-!-font-size-48

govuk-!-font-size-36

govuk-!-font-size-27

govuk-!-font-size-24

govuk-!-font-size-19

govuk-!-font-size-16

govuk-!-font-size-14

Font weight
As with the font size, you can add a font weight override class to any other typographic class or element to change the font weight to regular or bold weight.

govuk-!-font-weight-regular

govuk-!-font-weight-bold

Bold text
You can use bold to emphasise particular words in a transaction. Use it to highlight critical information that users need to refer to or you've seen them miss.
For example, "Your reference number is ABC12345678. Use this to track your application. Updates will be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com"
Use bold sparingly. Overuse will make it difficult for users to know which parts of your content they need to pay the most attention to.
Links are blue and underlined by default. If your link is at the end of a sentence or paragraph, make sure that the linked text does not include the full stop.
govuk-link
Use the
govuk-link--no-visited-state modifier class where it is not helpful to distinguish between visited and unvisited states, for example when linking to pages with frequently-changing content such as the dashboard for an admin interface.
govuk-link govuk-link--no-visited-state
Links without underlines
Only remove underlines from links if:
- the number or placement of links makes them difficult to scan or interact with the element they're part of, and
- it's clear to the user from the context that they're links, even without the underline
For example, navigation links in a header won't necessarily need underlines. Users will understand that they're links because of their position on the page.
Use lists to make blocks of text easier to read, and to break information into manageable chunks.

Benefits calculators
Benefit overpayments
Benefit fraud
More
Bulleted lists
Introduce bulleted lists with a lead-in line ending in a colon. Start each item with a lowercase letter, and do not use a full stop at the end.

You can buy:

Numbered lists
Use numbered lists instead of bulleted lists when the order of the items is relevant.
You do not need to use a lead-in line for numbered lists. Items in a numbered list should end in a full stop because each should be a complete sentence.

Delivery address.

Section break
You can use the
govuk-section-break classes on an

 element to create a thematic break between sections of content.
govuk-section-break has class-based modifiers for different size margins.
By default
govuk-section-break is only visible by its margin. You can add the
govuk-section-break--visible class to make it visible with a separator line.

Relationship Obsessions
Relationships are an important and essential part of our human experience. Forming and sustaining intimate relationships is highly valued in our society and can be a major stressor for both OCD sufferers and non- sufferers alike. When OCD is present and demanding certainty within your relationship, additional stressors are created that can increase relationship discord and decrease your relationship satisfaction.
Relationship obsessions can present in several forms:
- R-OCD in which you obsess over whether or not you love your partner and whether or not this is the "right" relationship. R-OCD can also include frequent comparative analysis in which you obsess over physical, social, and/or personality attributes of your partner as a means of determining if they are "the right one".
- Obsessive jealousy is another form of distressing ocd in relationships. This is when you obsess over the idea that your partner may leave you, cheat on you, or be attracted to others.
Below you will be provided with a brief synopsis of how these relationship obsessions may present themselves, and what treatment could look like for managing these obsessions.
If suffering with R-OCD, you likely find yourself consumed by thoughts such as "How can I be sure I love my partner?" or "What if this is not the right relationship for me?" You may also have obsessions that zero in on your partner's attributes, such as "Is he attractive enough?" or "Is he smart enough?" In an attempt to manage the distress associated with these thoughts, you may find yourself engaging in very specific rituals. For instance, constantly comparing your relationship to that of others, frequently seeking others' input on your relationship, or trying to recall positive memories in order to feel "certain" you are with the right person.
While you might logically think the goal of treatment for R-OCD would be to help you figure out if you do in fact love your partner, this is not the case. The goal of treatment is to help you live with the uncertainty that your OCD is telling you that you cannot handle. This will involve the use of the therapeutic modality known as CBT, using primarily, Exposure Response Prevention and Imaginal Exposure. Once you have achieved symptom reduction through this process, you will be better able to make relationship decisions based on in the moment experiences rather than fear based decision making guided by your R-OCD.
Obsessive Jealousy
If you suffer from obsessive jealousy, you likely find yourself consumed with trying to gain absolute certainty that your partner is faithful to you. You may find yourself engaging in multiple rituals to "check" your partner's faithfulness, including constant questioning of his/her whereabouts, going through his/her personal property, or even following him/her. You may also find yourself trying to limit/restrict your partner's behavior, doing things such as telling him/her where they can or cannot go and how often they need to be in contact with you.
The goal of treatment for obsessive jealousy would be to help you accept and live with the uncertainty that is inherent in all romantic relationships. No one can know for sure what behaviors our partners may or may not engage in. All any of us can do is look at the information in front of us and assume that our partners are with us because they want to be. If evidence is presented indicating that we cannot trust our partner, we deal with this as it arises. We do not go looking for such evidence.
The specifics of your treatment will be tailored to you, but like treatment for all forms of OCD will be centered upon CBT using primarily exposure and response prevention.
If you suspect that you or someone you care about has R-OCD please start by getting an evaluation by a qualified OCD specialist. I say a specialist because OCD does not respond well to a standard supportive talk therapy.
Start your search for a treating professional at Iocdf.org, ADAA.org or of course you can reach us at www.anxietyocdbala.com.

Scotland delivered brilliantly with the ball and their openers have stayed unbeaten at the end of opening day's play of their ICC Intercontinental Cup match against Ireland at Dubai.
Scotland managed to bowl out Ireland for 251 in 81 overs and reached 37/0 in the 10 overs they batted for in their 1st innings. Mark Watt (3/60), Stuart Whittingham (3/23) & Chris Sole (3/79) bowled impeccable line and lengths to pick up Irish wickets at regular intervals.
After William Porterfield (28 off 38) and Andrew Balbirnie (36 off 59) tried to steady the innings at the start of the day, Kevin O'Brien's knock of 78 n.o off 97 deliveries took Ireland to their final score. Other batsmen got starts but could not convert them to bigger scores. Debutante Mitchell Rao also picked up a solitary wicket on his first-class debut.
Scotland openers, George Munsey (23 n.o off 28) and Kyle Coetzer (13 n.o off 32) managed to take Scotland to 37 for no loss, negotiating the 10 overs at the end of day's play. Both openers will be hoping for a good start on day 2 as Scotland look to erase the deficit of 214 runs and take a 1st innings lead.

text: Pace leveraged in-store displays and a variety of digital activity during Albertsons' "Stock Up Sale." recipes, along with a $1 coupon for meat. This coupon was relevant to the Pace recipes featuring protein, while also encouraging crossshopping behavior as part of Albertsons' larger co-op event. "I think what was unique about this campaign is that it was marrying a brand shopper marketing campaign with a co-op campaign," says Sarah Stefaniuk, director of retail strategy for The Mars Agency, which worked on the campaign. "It's all really well aligned because the co-op sale is about stocking up and we wanted to amplify that with a message and inspire shoppers by giving them reasons to stock up on Pace." The close collaboration with Albertsons also enabled Campbell to make greater use of the retailer's owned media and to focus less on paid and earned media. "It increased the reach of what we were trying to accomplish, while also bringing the cost per thousand down," Ardito says. MARCH 2016 SHOPPER MARKETING y 23

Freight shipping from New York to West Virginia is easier than ever when transporting freight with FreightCenter. Our simple quoting and booking process enables you to get instant freight rates from our top shipping carriers and allows you to start booking your freight shipments in just a couple short steps. FreightCenter guarantees that the transportation of goods will be an affordable process when shipping from New York to West Virginia by LTL, truckload, rail, or intermodal.
New York is a very busy state on the northern Atlantic coast, known as a population center for the entire United States. There is a major manufacturing and agricultural industry outside of the major city, factoring for a large part of the state's economy. New York freight rates are the most affordable when goods are being transported out of the state, but overall freight rates are always low due to the busy economy and high volume of goods moving through the state. New York freight shipping is easily accomplished due to the amount of infrastructure and planning originally devoted to the state's road and railway system. New York's various international ports also allow for a variety of internationally destined shipping options and high volumes of freight in demand means LTL rates are affordable.
West Virginia is a state located to the east, primarily containing the Appalachian Mountains. The state's lowlands see modest winters and harsh summers, while the higher elevations are prone to large amounts of snow. The success of the state's economy is the major coal mining industry. The extensive railroad system found throughout the state was founded as a result of the major coal industry, leading to most of West Virginia's freight moving by rail. Trucking is found to be rather difficult in the extremely mountainous areas, high freight shipping prices often reflect this difficulty. However, the state's extensive highway system makes truckload shipping a viable option. LTL freight shipping can be difficult to find for affordable prices due to the low volume of goods constantly moving throughout the state.

* Never take your eyes completely off your dog. Always know exactly where your dog is. This applies to both beginner and some intermediate handlers - advanced handlers already know this . So many times I have seen exhibitors leave their dogs at the start line & lead out without watching their dogs only to find their dog has already started & is now right next to them & doesn't know where to go next.
This happened to me once with my fast Sheltie & when I saw him next to me (while I was stopped) I got so mixed up I couldn't remember the next obstacle & earned a refusal before I could get it together again. Also I have seen this happen while running the course. Handler is running & not looking at dog while dog has gone off course. Handlers need to at least keep their dog in sight (even out of the corner of their eye) to head off possible problems.
I have seen people not even know their dogs have NQ'd by knocking a bar because they were looking only ahead.
Patty Andolina & The Herd

(Shadow, KoKo, Brandy (Ya, I did that), Cory & Jenny)
* Get your dog's attention before you go into the ring and let the dog know it is now working! The practice jump is good, but some heeling, attention work, sit, play, treats, toys all work too.
Lynn Baitinger
Rochester, MI
* Drive your dogs across the last jump with the same speed and intensity that you have shown throughout the rest of the course. A good way to "finish strong" is to pick something outside the ring to focus on, and run hard towards it as your dog jumps the last obstacle and head for the finish line. Keep going until you both cross the finish line.
This was the best advice my first trainer, Robyn Brock, could have given me. My Starters dog, Jasmine, constantly missed the last obstacle on her standard courses. Apparently I was "letting up" and slowing down as we neared the last obstacle, causing my dog to either turn back towards me, or turn enough towards me to not see the last jump until she had run past it.
Now when I walk the course, I pick something for me to head for, keeping up my pace as much as possible (usually it's a pole, a tree, something that cannnot move during my run). When I started handling my dog *through* the finish line, she stopped missing the last obstacle and we started completing our courses!
Jelinda Pepper with Jasmine, All-American great little dog

* Here are a few tips that may help. Some sound obvious to experienced handlers but may not be to newbies.
1. If, for any reason (eg. wind knocked it down, somebody forgot to set it, etc.), a bar is down on a jump when you get to it, have your dog go through the standards, anyway. Most judges will give you credit for the jump if you go through the standards; Failure to perform if you do not.
2. Wait until the *end* of the "go" before leaving the table. Teach your dog not to leave the table just because someone says, "Go!"
3. Remember the "four paw rule" where applicable (not UKC). If your dog gets all 4 paws on a contact obstacle and then backs off (or jumps off), *do not* repeat the obstacle. You will be instantly eliminated.
4. If your dog goes around a jump, do not let him jump it on the way back to you. Backjumping is off course. (AKC will allow you an off course. Unfortunately, going around the jump earned you a refusal.)
5. If your dog goes under or beside the tire in USDAA or NADAC starters/novice classes, do not let him go back under to return to you to try again. That direction is off course, even if he doesn't actually do the tire.
6. Be careful if your dog messes up the weave poles. When restarting him, he must not weave backwards at all - that's off course!
Candy Lewis
* Patty Andolina's tip is along the same lines as mine. If leading out from the start, don't completely let the dog out of your line of vision. Even a top obedience dog can forget how to STAY at a fun agility trial. This happened to me with my OTCH sheltie many years ago at one of his first USDAA regionals.
Also, when working contacts, keep your body low since dogs follow our body motion (helps keep dogs head down to complete the contact).
Neal Jakubowsky in Austin
* Forget the commands and concentrate on what you are facing (feet, hips, shoulders). What you are facing is most likely what the dog will do... in spite of correct or incorrect commands!
* The name of this game is having FUN with your dog. It usually leads to greater Q success and when it doesn't you'll still be grinning and loving your dog!
Kathryn Horn

* Remember that no matter how "embarrassing" your dog's run is everyone there has had days like that.
Anne Schilling, Madison, Wisconsin
U-CD U-ACH Bozo Am/Can/ASCA CD TD NA OAC OGC NJC CGC (Irish Setter)
* I have a list I made up based on what I THOUGHT I heard my instructor say week after week:
1. RELAX - there is plenty of time
2. Watch your dog
3. Face the direction you are going
4. Do not run past the obstacle until the dog is committed (watch your dog)
5. Say the command for the next obstacle while the dog is in the middle of the first obstacle
6. Signal dog with the hand on the same side the dog is running
7. If you see your dog veering away from the obstacle, call COME (jump, etc.)
8. Take the lead off time at the start and at the table
9. At the last obstacle - DO NOT STOP! Yell GO and make sure dog crosses finish line

If you recall we updated you on the latest SUP 4.0 for the ARRI Alexa MINI in an earlier blog post here. Earlier today ARRI issued an important notice regarding the latest SUP 4.0 for the ARRI Alexa MINI. The notices has to do with a bug that occurs when shooting in 2.39:1 2K Anamorphic that produces an image artifact which leads to aliasing and jagged edges.
Here's the info from ARRI:
Due to an inconsistency in the scaling node in SUP 4.0, recording resolution 2.39:1 2K Anamorphic produces an image artifact that leads to aliasing and jagged edges. We highly recommend to refrain from using this recording resolution for any shooting. We are currently resolving this issue. The solution will be included in the SUP 4.0 bug fix release, and we will keep you informed.
We strongly urge our customers who have purchased ALEXA MINI's to avoid shooting in this resolution and aspect ratio for the time being until ARRI releases a firmware fix, which will be hopefully very soon.

GONZALES — Residents are concerned over the change to the empty lot on Fifth Street from a designated area for a future community center to possibly CHISPA housing, which is currently under consideration.
The three-acre lot across from Gonzales High School and adjacent to Fairview Middle School was originally earmarked for a community center, according to the City of Gonzales' General Plan. However, the plan was modified by the city council through resolutions made in April and October of 2017.
"These resolutions directed staff to coordinate with CHISPA in preparing an agreement leading to funding and construction of affordable housing," said Matthew Sundt, community development director. "And, to approve an exclusive contract between CHISPA and the City with regard to the property to include affordable multi-family housing."
On Jan. 23, the Planning Commission considered a conditional use permit to construct 41 residential apartment units in the area and have an area designated for a future city library. The apartments would consist of six two-story buildings with a height of 28 feet.
The apartments would have two- to three-bedroom units, and 106 parking spots are proposed for the housing complex.
The City had a traffic analysis study completed of six intersections that would be affected by the proposed housing. The traffic analysis was said to result in slight delays at intersections, and would not significantly impact any of the intersections.
The City is hiring a company to staff crossing guards on either side of the Fifth Street bridge for one hour in the morning and afternoon during the school year.
"The City is working with Cal Trans to re-stripe the bridge to accommodate four lanes," Sundt said. "Combined, these measures will reduce delays on Fifth Street and provide significant relief to drivers for existing conditions."
CHISPA President and CEO Alfred Diaz-Infante, who was present at the meeting, said it was CHISPA's goal to house the people that live in Gonzales. Diaz-Infante said there are housing laws that prevent them from discrimination against renters who apply and don't live in Gonzales.
"We're really certain that the way we do marketing, we'll have anywhere from 85 to 90 percent of the units go to Gonzales residents," he said.
Planning Commissioner Tim Jackson expressed concerns about the safety of residents who are walking to school, the traffic and how there needs to be a school on the other side of town.
"We have probably outgrown our infrastructure and we need to create better infrastructure," Jackson said. "I love your project, but I just think it needs to be someplace else."
Resident Roman Barba was concerned there wasn't enough parking spaces in the plan and the overflow would go onto Rincon Road. Another resident, Carol Karen Piffero, said she was against the project.
"It takes me 10 minutes at least in a normal day to get to my parents' house, which should take two minutes," Piffero said.
The Planning Commission voted to deny the housing's conditional use permit.
