One of Tōhoku's most popular ski resorts, GALA Yuzawa is located just 200km north of Tokyo, and is easily accessed by shinkansen. You can quite literally wake up early in the morning in Tokyo, hit the slopes after breakfast, and be back home for dinner and a movie. With such incredible ease of access, GALA Yuzawa is predictably packed, especially on weekends and holidays, but you can't beat the convenience.GALA Yuzawa is divided into a northern and a central area, which together offer 15 runs. There is also a southern area, though at the time of research it was closed for redevelopment. With the exception of a few runs at the bottom of the mountain, almost all trails are intermediate and beginner level. As a result, GALA Yuzawa is especially popular among families and novices. Courses from top to bottom are moderate in length, with the longest stretching for 2.4km. Three quad lifts alongside 12 triple and double lifts help to thin the crowds, but expect queues at peak times.Given its popularity and proximity to Tokyo, GALA Yuzawa is a massive resort complete with its own onsen and fitness spa, as well as a multitude of bars, restaurants and accommodations. English is everywhere, and you'll see plenty of other foreigners here. Full equipment rental is available for a somewhat pricey ¥4800 per day. From JR Echigo-Yuzawa station, free shuttle buses run to the resort every 15 minutes from morning until early evening.

The town is dominated by the Nozawa Onsen Ski Resort, which is one of Honshū's best. The ski area here is more compact than, say, nearby Shiga Kōgen, and it's relatively easy to navigate and enjoy. The main base area is right around the Higake gondola station. There is a good variety of terrain at all levels, and snowboarders should try the Karasawa terrain park or the half-pipe at Uenotaira. Advanced skiers will enjoy the steep and often mogulled Schneider Course, while beginners and families will enjoy the Higake Course.Snowshoe tours are available from the end of January, organised by the Nozawa Onsen ski school , and there is a snow-field sightseeing tourin a snowcat from early January to late March from the rest house at Yunomine.

Host of the downhill races at the 1998 Winter Olympics, Happō-One is one of Japan's best ski areas. The mountain views are superb, and beginner, intermediate and advanced runs cater to skiers and snowboarders.Most runs go right down the face of the mountain, with several good burners descending from Usagidaira 109, the mountain's centre-point. Above this, two chairlifts run to the top, worth it for the views alone. On busy days, you can avoid lift-line bottlenecks by heading to areas like the Skyline 2.The rest house at Usagidaira 109 is the largest eating establishment. The modern Virgin Café Hakuba has upscale ambience, while Café Kurobishi has excellent mountain views and cafeteria-style seating.There are plenty of hire places in the streets around the base of the mountain, some with boots up to 31cm. All have roughly the same selection and prices (¥2500 to ¥3000 per day for skis/board and boots).From Hakuba Station, a five-minute bus ride (¥260) takes you into the middle of Hakuba-mura; from there it's a 10-minute walk to the base of Happō-One and the main 'Adam' gondola base station. In winter, a shuttle bus makes the rounds of the village, lodges and ski base.

Just north of JR Ryōgoku Station is this sumō stadium with its adjoining
Sumō Museum. Fifteen-day
basho (sumō tournaments) take place here three
times a year (January, May and September), while three other tournaments are held in
other cities in March, July and November. Together, these
basho decide who will be the
yokozuna (grand champion). Although small, the
museum displays a rotating selection of interesting artefacts of sumō history and
art (mostly wood-block prints). When sumō tournaments are on at the stadium, only
those holding tickets to the matches can enter the museum. For details on watching
tournaments, see p207. For details on eating
chanko-nabe, the delicious and nutritious stew
that is consumed in massive quantities by sumō wrestlers, see

Special Enrollment Period for Those Covered by COBRA
COBRA Enrollees Have 60 Days to Switch to an Exchange Plan; Move Is Expected to Save California Consumers Money on Health Insurance
Beginning Thursday, May 15, Covered California will launch a limited-time special-enrollment period for people who have COBRA health insurance and would like to switch to an exchange plan.
People who have health coverage through COBRA (the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) will be eligible to shop for and buy coverage through Covered California from May 15 through July 15, 2014. The two-month window mirrors a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) ruling announced May 2 that allows COBRA enrollees to buy plans through the federal exchange until July 1.
The federal policy for the COBRA special-enrollment period was approved amid concerns that notifications did not give consumers clear information about options in the new marketplace. HHS encouraged state exchanges to follow suit.
"COBRA coverage has given vital protection for nearly three decades to people who lost coverage from their employers, especially those who couldn't get affordable insurance because of their age or a pre-existing condition," said Covered California Executive Director Peter V. Lee. "Since the passage of the Affordable Care Act, plans in the individual market could be preferable to COBRA coverage because of premium assistance and cost-sharing reductions, available only through the exchanges. For some people who have COBRA coverage, purchasing a plan in the Covered California marketplace during this special-enrollment period could save thousands of dollars a year."
Under COBRA, individuals who experience a job loss can purchase the coverage they had through their employer but are responsible to pay the full cost. In some cases, individuals and families, particularly if they qualify for subsidies, can purchase more affordable coverage in the health benefit exchanges. Click Here to learn more

Sign the petition and tell the House GOP to extend unemployment benefits.
Our job market still is bearing the weight of the Wall Street induced financial meltdown. We've seen workers losing their jobs across the boardfrom health care and education to construction and governmentthrough no fault of their own. These are the men and women who make America work and now they're drowning. Rather than extend these benefits, House Republicans made the choice to jump ship and go on holiday break, letting these vital benefits expire for our neighbors, friends and family members who have lost their jobs. CLICK HERE to sign the AFL/CIO's petition, and tell Congress to do the right thing and extend UI benefits now.
BART Negotiations
Brothers and Sisters:
There has been a lot of misinformation over the last few months about the negotiations at Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART). Here's the truth: The workers at BART are bargaining for a fair contract that would protect the health and safety of riders and workers. But instead of negotiating in good faith, the bosses at BART have engaged in a campaign to demonize workers as part of an effort to impose an unfair contract that would hurt workers and their families.
The workers at BART don't want a strike. They want to come to work every day to serve our community as they've been doing for years. They're simply asking that management negotiates with them to find common ground. But that's not what's been happening. Instead of negotiating, management has spent weeks holding press conferences to spread misinformation about the workers instead of sitting down with workers to discuss important issues that include worker and rider safety.
Here are the facts:
· BART bosses brought in a high-paid out-of-state lawyer with a history of union-busting and driving disputes to strikes to be their chief negotiator. He's taken weeks of vacation since he was hired instead of sitting down with BART workers to avoid a strike.
· BART management refuses to fix safety problems that have led to the deaths of several workers. In fact, BART cut vital morning safety inspections that protect workers and riders. BART unions are fighting to restore these important safety measures.
· BART workers also are bargaining to improve safety and convenience for riders by pushing to reopen and staff station restrooms and they're fighting to block a proposal by BART management to eliminate the worker-management safety committee.
· BART workers are bargaining for reasonable staffing levels and fair compensation. BART workers' wages have been frozen for five years. Now that BART is running a surplus, workers are asking for a very modest wage increase.
BART workers are our friends and neighbors. They provide a vital service to our community. They're fighting to avoid a strike so that the trains keep running for Bay Area commuters. But they can't do it alone. They need our support.
Please contact the BART Board of Directors during business hours at (510) 464-6095 and tell them to stop their attacks on workers and start bargaining in good faith to avoid a strike. Together, we can ensure the trains keep running and BART workers get what they deserve: a fair contract that protects both riders and workers.
In Solidarity,
Julie Lind, Political Director
San Mateo County Central Labor Council

Many thanks to all of the members who showed up and stood up for our Union. Together we are making a difference.
Holding The Line
Our members maintained a very strong presence at the artMRKT show at Fort Mason throughout the weekend. The public was very supportive. Many promised to tell both show management and the San Francisco Fine Arts Museums that they were unhappy and would not attend any future events where workers were not paid Bay Area Standard wages and benefits. Many thanks to all of the members who showed up and stood up for our Union. Together we are making a difference.
Walking The Line
Ray Fawthorp, John Kyle, Josh Ende and Bob Owen start early at Fort Mason. Local 510 is currently picketing the artMRKT San Francisco, a contemporary and modern art fair.

Election Results
We gained a revived sense of unity in this past election. We actually managed to unite and organize ourselves into one big union to fight Proposition 32, and it worked. We also managed to pull Proposition 30 along to victory. In doing so we managed to put aside our petty differences and exercise our voice, and even big money could not defeat that voice. We mobilized the vote locally and statewide, and used new technology and social networking to help get out the vote. This brings to the labor community a new sense of purpose and a lesson for the future. In California we have demonstrated our ability to override the Tea Party obstructionists and to actually talk about increased revenue and even taxes as a means of preserving the quality of our education system and our social structure.
There is no time for elation over the results of November 6th. Relief is perhaps a better descriptive word for us to use at this time. Until there is some serious campaign reform, we will face the same demons that brought us Proposition 32, again and again. This is the third time in the last 15 years that the voters have rejected a measure that attempts to curtail or eliminate working people's ability to organize and spend money on political campaigns. We must remain vigilant to those who would rob us of our voice and influence as working people. Complacency is one of the biggest threats that we now face.
Labor Day Message
U.S. Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis sends us this.
Today, I want to extend my warmest wishes to you, the working men and women of America. You remain the beating heart of the greatest middle class in the world. Thank you for your commitment, your talent, your hard work and your service to this country. On behalf of everyone at the Department of Labor, I'm honored to wish all of you a great Labor Day.
Every day, you are creating an America built to last by harvesting our food, building our automobiles, constructing our buildings, providing energy for our homes and caring for our loved ones. Labor Day is our opportunity to honor that work, and that means standing up and speaking out and taking pride in what we do. You show us that each of us makes a profound contribution to our communities and our nation with the work we do; because the work of every person is built on the work of another, we all rely on one another. Work connects us all.
Labor Day is the celebration of a promise fulfilled. For generations, the promise of good jobs, fair treatment and wages and a seat at the bargaining table has sustained the economic security of Americas vital middle class.
Labor Day is also a call to action, a reminder that we must defend that promise to ensure that dignity and opportunity remain the birthright of all workers in this country.
We know whats at stake, and we know what we have to do.
Weve come so far in the last three-and-a-half years, but we've still got a long way to go. We were bleeding more than 800,000 jobs a month when President Obama took office. But over the last 29 months, we've created 4.5 million private-sector jobs. We must continue to get people back to work. You stand with President Obama to support his call for investments that will fix our crumbling roads, bridges, airports and schools; prevent more layoffs of teachers and first responders; and keep more police and firefighters on the beat.
Some say that we can't afford unions right now, that labor unions are the problem in this country. But I think they've got it just plain wrong. Unions helped build America's middle class. You are nowand always will bepart of the solution.
That is chiefly because you speak with one voice to demand dignity, respect and good jobs for everyonejobs with strong safety and health standards; protections against wage theft, discrimination and employee misclassification; and a voice at the workplace.
For me, this Labor Day has added meaning. My dad, who was a proud union member, passed away this year. When I was in ninth grade, he would come home and ask me to sit with him at our kitchen table. From his pockets, he pulled pieces of paper with writing in Spanish on them. They were scribbled messages from co-workers: safety grievances, questions about paychecks that didn't add up and ideas about how to improve the productivity of the line.
He'd ask me to translate them into English. When I asked what they were, he explained: They are the voice of the workers. It was from him, as a young girl, that I learned about the critical need for workers to have a seat at the table.
Today, I honor his memory with a call for unity and strengtha commitment to keep building on our achievements to meet the urgent needs of working families.
One thing is certain: the promise of the great American worker will never be broken. Working together, there's no challenge we can't overcome.
Respectfully, Hilda L. Solis
Proponents of this initiative describe Prop 32 as "campaign finance reform" and as "the payroll protection act". This Bad Act is neither.
Prop 32 is phony "Finance Reform" funded by anti-Union millionaires and corporate executives. The Act is loaded with exemptions for corporate interests.
Prop 32 prohibits deductions from union and corporate paychecks for any political purpose whatsoever.
Prop 32 gives special exemptions to anti-union corporate interests and their powerful lobbies to spend as much as they want. Unions will not be allowed to spend a dime.
We would not be able to use a penny of our union money to support any ballot measures including support for the Moscone expansion or political campaigns or candidates that would support it . If Prop 32 is not soundly defeated, Labor stands to be silenced in the political life of California. Anything that has been gained by worker's struggles in the past 150 years stands to be overturned. So lets all get educated about Prop32:
For information and videos go to:
This is a pivotal moment for all working and middle class Americans. For union workers in California the stakes have never been higher. The outcome of the 2012 November elections will decide the future of our State. In our State and throughout the nation Unions are under attack by the same forces that brought us Wisconsin and Citizens United. We will need all of our members and their families communities and friends to vote if we are going to defeat this.
October 22 is the last day to register. November 6 is the day we all vote.
Absentee ballots go out on October 8. Once you are registered, you can get an absentee ballot and vote any time until election day.
We will be bringing Registration forms to the job sites. We also have forms in the Office. Come in any time to get Registered to Vote.

2012 Contract
There are two documents that dominate our lives: the calendar and the contract. Both of these expire at the end of this month. Our Negotiating Committee is working hard to improve the rates and conditions that we work for. As members we need to stand ready to back them up. We do this through a phone tree. We form into crews, each headed by a Captain and an Alternate. If the word goes out, to gather for a vote or any other purpose, the Captains are called. They in turn call the members of their crews. Literally, within minutes, the entire Union is notified; and we can act as one. Currently the Captains are contacting their crews to verify and update the contact information. Please respond promptly, the sooner we get the information together, the stronger we'll be. For those of you who are not in a crew yet, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll get you hooked up. Thank you. - John Kyle, President Local 510.
Visqueen 1948
This 1948 ad for Visking's "VisQueen" plastic film paints a utopian vision of a world where everything is entombed in airtight plastic layers, rendering it sterile and impervious to the world's depredations and imperfections. Their slogan is: It's pure, tasteless, odorless, and easily wiped off. Who can argue with that?

No Cuts to Social Security or Medicare!
Any national budget deal that allows for cuts to Social Security or Medicare is a non-starter for anyone in the trade union movement. We stand up for working men and women from when they first begin the burden of having to punch a time card and have the responsibility of providing for themselves and their families. We are never rich. Sometimes we have enough to sleep well and smile. But even in America we are never completely comfortable. That's why we continue to fight against the greed of the corporations and the bosses.
The union movement fought for Social Security and Medicare. The simplest safety nets -- the backbone of our accomplishments; the basic pillars of our compassion. Anyone who diminishes these programs is a traitor to the American working class.
Call your Congress members and Senators and tell them that you will not tolerate any cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Look up your Representatives click here or use the local phone numbers below.

Local Support for the Wisconsin Protests
The events in Wisconsin (and across the US) are simultaneously terrifying and inspiring. It has been many decades since this many people have poured out to support workers and their simple right to negotiate their own working conditions, but this is also an unprecedented attack on the working class.
Instead of calling public sector unions to the negotiating table in the face of a fiscal crisis (the blame for which falls at the feet of politicians and the bankers who lobby them, not the workers), Wisconsin Gov. Walker's proposed legislation removes the negotiating table....forever.
Similar legislation has been presented in Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey and Oklahoma, and this wave of anti-union finger pointing is sure to intensify. For two weeks now, facing temperatures well below freezing, tens of thousands of demonstrators have descended on the Wisconsin capitol, and have occupied the building day and night in protest. Our hearts are with them in their fight - united we stand, divided we fall.

Upcoming Work
November starts off solidly with Audio engneering. Then there's a string of smaller shows but several of them are in the South Bay which create more work opportunities than their numbers might indicate at first glance. Finally the month ends with the Auto Show filling Mocscone Center during the week of Thanksgiving.
For all the times, dates and details please check the Calendar and Schedule.

The Cullman Times
For high school seniors all across the country, National Signing Day offers a chance for athletes to extend their playing careers while having a little bit of fun during their 15 minutes of fame.
Some players choose their school from a selection of hats, while some don a personal, embroidered jersey. In some rare instances, the athlete will even present a live animal representing their future team's mascot.
For Holly Pond's Ben Wilson, however, theatrics weren't necessary for the stoic senior.
The Bronco inked a football scholarship with the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics' (NAIA) Missouri Valley on Wednesday, surrounded by his parents, Ty and Robin Wilson, coaches, family and friends.
Wilson, who plans to play tight end, was both happy and relieved the recruiting process was finally over.
"It was a tough decison," he said. "I think I got it right in the end, though."
The two-sport student-athlete said his choice ultimately came down to the Vikings and Belhaven University, another NAIA institution located in Jackson, Miss.
Wilson added his on-campus visit of Missouri Valley last week is what set the two schools apart.
"It's a lot different where I'm going," he said. "Everybody there expects to win and expects to compete for national championships every single year.
"I just decided on Tuesday night that I wanted to be apart of that winning tradition."
Missouri Valley is one of the top NAIA schools in the country, boasting 17 conference championships and 11 national championship game appearances, both highest among all current NAIA programs.
Holly Pond football coach, Nate Ayers, said he believes Wilson made a very good decision.
"It's a big day for him and for Holly Pond," he said. "That's a big-time program with big-time athletes. He has a legitimate chance to play for a national title all four years he's there."
Wilson will move to Marshall, Mo. — home of the Vikings — sometime in early August and enroll for fall classes shortly before preparing for the season.
The Bronco said his main goal is to contribute right away, no matter how small or big those contributions might be.
"I don't care where I'm at or what I do," he said. "I just want to help as soon as I get there. Whether it's in practice or on special teams."
As a freshman entering a top-flight program, Wilson knows he may have to wait patiently for his turn on the field.
"I understand that as a freshman, I'll probably end up on the scout team," he said. "But that means I'll get to help out the defense, help them get better. That's what I want to do."
Ayers said he knows Missouri Valley will be getting not just a great football player, but a great person as well.
"You know, if I had a son, I'd want him to be just like Ben," the coach said. "He's a good kid. He always keeps his grades up and there's never been a single problem off the field.
"When you see those characteristics, it's not hard to see why he's been successful here."

About Me Image Conscious
The fit on these jeans is extraordinary. I am in the 50's and have struggled to find a good fit jean with clean lines and no bling. These fit wonderfully, feel and look great. I tried them after having a similar experience with slacks from JAB. The also look very professional when you throw a sport coat over them. They wash up great and I have actually not put an iron to them yet. Well worth it. I also wear them to play in my band after work.
No regrets, Very happy

Tailored Jeans
By Bird
from Boston, MA
Bought these for my college age son and although the material and color was nice, they were not as tailored as he would have liked. The cut needs to be trimmer and slimmer and they still had a baggy feel through the legs.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Fit different that expected.
By JimB
from Las Vegas, NV
Advertised as a tailored fit jean I anticipated a more tailored fit. I bought three pair and was a bit disappointed. The fit at best is comparable to a "relaxed fit" with other manufactures. The quality of the product is great.
I love these jeans!

Comfortable, fit well
By JKB
from WMass
Very comfortable, fit well, look great. I typically wear much baggier jeans so I wasn't sure how I would like the "tailored" fit of these, but they were fantastic. I got them half off, and I wouldn't pay full price for them, but that's just out of an aversion to paying $100 for jeans, not a reflection on the quality. They seem very well made, and I look forward to wearing them for a long time.

A crossing guard was arrested on drug charges Tuesday just as students were dismissed at J.F. Kennedy Primary Center.
Tracy Lynn Padilla, 47, of 709 Blaine St., was charged with two counts of manufacture, delivery or possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, two counts of possession of a controlled substance and two counts of use or possession of drug paraphernalia.
Following her arraignment, she was released on $10,000 bond.
Padilla was arrested by detectives from the Lawrence County District Attorney's office about 3 p.m., just before she began her shift as a school crossing guard at the primary center on the city's North Hill.
She has since been terminated from that post.
"We felt this (arrest) had to be a priority," said Lawrence County District Attorney Joshua Lamancusa. "She had young children under her care."
We'll have complete details in Thursday's print edition of The News.

Mineral Wells scored touchdowns on offense and special teams and two interceptions on defense set up scores as the Rams shut out Fort Worth Diamond Hill, 58-0, Friday night in a District 6-3A grid tilt at Ram Stadum.
The win raises the Rams' 6-3A mark to 1-2 and 1-7 overall, while Diamond Hill drops to 0-3 and 0-8.
Rams senior DaShawn Hicks scored three touchdowns and led all rushers with 126 yards on just five carries. Sophomore Tristan Seargeant also reached the end zone three times - twice on the ground and on a one-yard pass from junior quarterback Caleb Acosta.
Kissinger and Omery Trevino each had an interception that set up scors, and Kissinger returned a punt 55 yards for a touchdown.
The Mineral Wells Lady Rams swept Diamond Hill, 25-18, 25-20, 25-16, Friday afternoon in a District 6-3A volleyball match at the MWHS gym to clinch a playoff spot.

"Key to Successful Campaign Engagement"
Single Widget Works on Multiple Devices
At last! A powerful, single widget with a thousand fundraising and activist uses. No wonder it's been called the "Campaign in a Box."
Call2Action has created a new kind of widget called a "Spark," that allows campaigns to combine video with action tools to facilitate instant enrollment, petitions, donations and other ways for viewers to interact on the spot—regardless of the device they're using—with an organization or campaign. On top of that, your donors, activists and supporters can spread the word even further by sharing to Facebook, twitter and email, or embedding the widget in other sites and blogs. Sparks can even be distributed through ad networks like DoubleClick.
The multiple-platform application for the Spark is limited only by your imagination. Read the full case study here, or take a look at the video below, and start envisioning the range of possibilities.Learn more

Do you know the feeling when you see an old friend you haven't seen in years. That's about what you'll feel when you walk into the newly rebuilt Mt. Washington Tavern, 5700 Newbury Street in Mt. Washington.
The restaurant was destroyed by a massive fire in October 2011. In early November of 2012 friends, neighbors and customers celebrated 'The Tavern's' re-opening.
To be sure the restaurant has been totally re-done. Patrons now enter through the Sulgrave Avenue entrance. The upstairs SkyBar now has an adjacent seasonal deck.
The interior features stonework throughout the dining areas and bar. There is now an elevator and a sprinkler system and some of the original walls are being used in the new building. Perhaps my biggest surprise was when I entered the upstairs Pimlico Room. My first word when seeing the room was 'wow.' The room is filled with memorabilia from Pimlico.
On the way up the wall is filled with photos from the night of the fire. Basically a shrine to the brave firefighters.
The menu is new American with a seafood twist. Added items include New England lobster roll and fried whole belly clams. Staples such as salads, burgers, wraps, steaks and crab cakes remain.
If you would like your name to remain in infamy, you can purchase a brick with your name on it. Each brick is $75 and proceeds go to the Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital. They will be placed where the old front door used to be.
The Tavern is open seven days with plenty of parking in the neighborhood, including valet. There is seating for about 450. Interestingly, 100 percent of the staff has returned. That is some testament for the owners Rob Frisch and David Lichty. And, in news that just has to be reported, the shuffleboard is still there.
There are many people very glad The Tavern is back in business. There has been a void in Mt. Washington for a year. Many of the customers present the night I was there told me they have their home back.
For more information call 410-367-6903 or go to mtwashingtontavern.com.

Secondary education (Classical Hebrew and Judaism)
A specialisation in Classical Hebrew and Judaism will develop foundational skills. You will also focus on understanding adolescent development, classroom management, lesson planning and specialised pedagogy of the discipline.
Assumed knowledge
Applicants for enrolment in the MTeach specialising in secondary education must hold a bachelor degree that satisfies the NSW Institute of Teachers requirements for accreditation. Candidates with a teaching method in Classical Hebrew must have completed studies in Classical Hebrew.
Study plan
To meet the requirements for this specialisation, a candidate completes 96 credit points (cp) comprising
(a) Year 1: 48 cp of study from the MTeach table including 20cp of core education units and 28cp of curriculum and professional studies units; and
(b) Year 2: 48cp of units of study from the MTeach table including 34cp of core education units and 14cp of curriculum and professional studies units.
Subject to the satisfactory completion of 72cp (normally at the end of the third full-time semester), students undertake extensive work in our partner schools in the final semester of the course.
Capstone specialisation
Students undertake their internship of at least 40 days (usually 45 days) in a secondary school in the second semester in the second year of the program. Internship placements are approved by the Faculty, and students undertake their placements in the curriculum area(s) in which they are enrolled and are conditionally certified to teach.
During the internship students are assigned to one or more mentor teachers, usually in a single discipline area and are responsible for teaching one or more classes for a total of between 14 and 17 lesson periods per week. The mentor teacher monitors the intern in their work in the school and, in discussion with the tertiary mentor, is responsible for writing a report on the internship that forms the basis of the assessment. Assessment is aligned with the NSW Institute of Teacher's Professional Teaching Standards for the Graduate Teacher.
Graduate opportunities
The MTeach in secondary education specialising in Classical Hebrew and Judaism qualifies graduates for work in Australian secondary schools, where graduates may find employment as classroom teachers, as well as in various levels of educational management within the school, including student welfare, curriculum development, year adviser, faculty master, principal and assistant principal. Secondary school teachers usually specialise in two subject areas, although some areas involve specialisation either in that area alone, or in conjunction with another area.

Analytical and Segmental Muscular Strengthening of the Abdominal Muscles and the Thoracic Diaphragm
Analytical and Segmental Muscular Strengthening of the Abdominal Muscles and the Thoracic Diaphragm As created by: Guy Voyer, DO What: A three-day, hands-on, practical workshop that covers the abdominal muscles (obliques, transversus abdominis, pyramidalis and rectus abdominis) the thoracic diaphragm, and why these muscles need to be trained with respect to biomechanics.

Need your broken Mac or iPhone repaired in any way? What about a functioning one upgraded? Or, do you have an old one that you no longer use (or is broken) that you've been using as a paperweight and might like to sell? Look no further.
Send me an e-mail with a description of what you've got, and I'll let you know what exactly I can do for you. For repairs and upgrades, I generally charge HALF of what Apple charges in service costs, as well as the cost of the parts needed for replacement, of course. For old and broken items, my policy is this: Make me an offer and I will either accept it or make a counter offer based on the circumstances of the physical condition and age of the product.
Note: If your computer is covered under warranty, by all means get it fixed by Apple as it could very likely be free, however, if you have broken it by means of accidental physical damage and thus broken your warranty, or if your warranty has simply expired, that is when my services can be helpful due to the price reduction. For many services, Apple charges an astronomical amount for out-of-warranty repairs that can be fixed at a much lower rate by somebody like myself who knows how to do the repairs and can get the parts at cost. Therefore I am willing to negotiate on most prices, with the underlying goal of providing affordable and convenient Mac service for my peers so that they don't have to drive 2+ hours to an Apple retail location to receive.
To any [justifiedly!] skeptical folks who do not know me personally, I can provide a list of at least 5-10 individuals on campus of varying classes who would gladly vouch that I have successfully performed a wide-range of Mac related repairs and upgrades over the past three years with a very high satisfaction rate.
If interested, I can be contacted by e-mail at email@example.com or by phone (text/call) at 717-855-4669.

Needs to be a little bigger or longer -
Nathan, Orlando, FL
An instantly recognizable toy/favor hampered by its small size. It's appealing and unique, but you can't really get the classic "slinky" action from it at this size. At my community Halloween party, it was moderately popular, but definitely not one of the most coveted items. Perhaps a slightly longer coil (with the same diameter) might be possible without driving the cost up?

The Buffalo Bandits have traded transition player Jimmy Purves to the Rochester Knighthawks for a second-round draft choice.
Purves played in eight games for the Bandits this season. He had two goals, one assist and 26 penalty minutes.
"It's tough to make a trade. Everyone is so even," Bandits assistant coach Rich Kilgour said Wednesday afternoon. "But we need draft picks. Jimmy is young (22), but you have to give up something. I like Jimmy on the back door; he had that mean attitude. It's hard to see him go, but it's the business we're in."
Purves was a fifth-round draft choice of the Bandits in 2010. He played one game for Buffalo in 2011 and 12 in 2012.
Kilgour also said that Jay Thorimbert and John Tavares took part in Tuesday night's practice, and they probably will be able to play against the Colorado Mammoth in Denver on Saturday.

Just when I think I'm prepared to make the first official move and get some of these letters out...Debt Validation to Collection Agency's, Goodwill Letters to Original Creditors, etc., I've drawn a HUGE blank and know I know the answer to this but I'm drawing a blank. If I have one Collection Agency showing up on all three credit reports and I need to send these letters CMRRR, do I send a DV letter to the same Collection Agency for each Credit Report entry or do I send one CMRRR letter and mention it is being reported on all three credit reports?
Brain F**t of the most simplest thing, just when I need it the most!!! Any HELP appreciated!!!!!!! Here I was ready to send these out and now I'm stopped dead in the water until I know for sure. The logic probably answers the question, just on this particular one I am talking about $1400 so really want to make the right step. TY again for any help!
just one letter per TL.
Thank you for the reply!
Now another questions that I didn't see forthcoming. On my tri-reort from USAA there is an address listed but it is different than one I found somewhere else. On the report it's listed just as "Rob Reg Yng" with an address, but somewhere I found someone thought they were R*binson, Reagan & Young, PLLC but with yet a different address. So far, I've seen about 4 addresses. If I want to send a DV for this Collection, do I use the address on the Tri-Report I just pulled last night from USAA.
And is there an advantage to sending to an address you know is valid, or an old one that is on a report that might be old?
But then again that would depend on if I want them to validate the debt or in this case, we think we really do have a check showing where we paid this issue, so I would want it to go to a legimate address?
Is there a simple rhyme or reason to current address for these folks?
One letter per TL. As for the address, it's supposed to be the correct address on your CR but that is not always the case with a CA. Have you googled them? Sometimes this will give you the current address.
If you're still having trouble finding the address, post a thread on here. Chances are someone's already dealing with them.

FAFSA Completion Search Tool
Texas Public High Schools
Have you ever wondered how your high school measures up when it comes to the percentage of your graduates who complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)?
You can use this tool to find your high school's FAFSA submission and completion rates*, and compare those rates to other schools in Texas in your district, county, ESC region, and more. Additionally, you can see the top colleges — ranked by number of attendees — that your graduates attend in the fall following their high school graduation. The FAFSA data are updated every two weeks between January and June, and monthly for the remainder of the calendar year, so check back often.
To start, type your high school's name in the selection box below. As you type, the box, which contains the names of all of the public high schools in the state, will narrow until you can find your high school. Some high schools share the same name, so be sure to select the correct one by city.
Note: If you cannot find your high school, try typing a variation of the high school name. For example, if you type "Bow," the pop-up box will display four schools named "Bowie High School" located in four different cities. If you were looking for James Bowie High School in Simms, you would need to start with "James" in order to find that school.
* FAFSA submissions include all applications submitted by students at the high school. FAFSA completions are submitted applications that were not rejected by the Department of Education's Central Processing System. A minimum of five FAFSA applications are needed for a school to be listed.
For additional information on FAFSA completions in the U.S., please visit StudentAid.gov/FAFSA-HS-Data.

Double Duty Classic

If MLB cancels the 2011 All Star game in Arizona, you will lose me permanently. I have been a baseball fan for over 60 yrs and to change the All Star game because of STUPID politics would be idiotic as well as DUMB. Baseball should be above politics. Look at the historic firsts baseball has done such as breaking the race lines with both Blacks and Hispanics all the way from players to management. Baseball led the way. Continue to show leadership and keep the game where it belongs.
