Seamus Coleman is targeting a win over Austria on Tuesday in order to keep the Republic of Ireland's World Cup dreams alive.The Everton right-back continued his impressive form for his country in the 0-0 draw against Sweden on Friday evening, as qualification Group C takes shape ahead of next summer's tournament in Brazil.That result kept Giovanni Trapattoni's men a point behind the second-placed Swedes - and they now face the team in third, Austria, in Dublin.Reflecting on the goalless draw in Stockholm, Coleman said: "It was a good point and a good performance. We can bring that on to Tuesday now."It has set us up nicely for the game against Austria, but a point will mean nothing if we can't finish it off on Tuesday night."There is no better feeling than going into that game after a good performance and a good point, and if we can finish it off it will have been a good week."Earning his 10th senior cap, Coleman now looks to have forced his way into the national side for the long-term.Having enjoyed a fantastic season at right-back for the Blues, he admits he is keen to make the national role his own."I feel good and feel comfortable in my proper position," he explained."I have always felt I am a right-back and I am getting a good run of games for club and country in that position."The manager likes me to get forward. That is a big part of my game."But sometimes you have got to think a point is a good result and there were times when stayed back and let the lads do it."It was about being solid more than anything but if anyone was going to win it it looked like we could have."

Trained in cutting-edge fat-reduction procedures such as Smartlipo TriPlex and Vaser Liposelection, Dr. Edwin Ishoo and his staff aim to obliterate cellulite using the latest high-tech cosmetic treatments. The VelaShape II is designed to boost the metabolism of stored energy and shrink fat cells and chambers with a multipronged attack consisting of bipolar radiofrequency, infrared light energies, mechanical massage, and indisputable logic. Patients relax during the quick procedure, which can be as short as 20 minutes, while technicians heat their dermal and hypodermal tissue, then use suction skin rollers in an effort to smooth out crinkly bone covers. Results can appear as soon as the third weekly session and can last up to six months.
The highly trained staff at HLC Med harnesses futuristic technology and its own line of products for services that heal, rejuvenate, and beautify. In the guffawing face of father time, technicians roll up their sleeves and unholster their lasers, blasting away acne scarring, rosacea, or hyperpigmentation with the Radiancy SpectraClear system. A chilled-tip laser uproots party-crashing hair from any skin type, and a Q-switched KTP YAG laser sends sun spots packing. Custom chemical peels stimulate cell renewal and collagen production to fill out fine lines, and radio-frequency devices firm up skin and smooth out cellulite. The center also offers services for men, including laser treatments for razor bumps, back-hair removal, and a gentleman's facial that moisturizes faces more effectively than head-butting Poseidon.
Friendliness is one of the primary values at Laser MD MedSpa, which also incorporates beauty and science into the services it offers. There, a welcoming, board-certified doctor accompanied by medical staff supervises treatments that revivify appearances from scalp to heel. Wielding advanced cosmetic lasers, certified laser technicians sculpt bodies, zap unwanted hair, and resurface complexions. Despite the name, the centers go far beyond light-aided treatments; technicians also administer peels and injectables to combat lines and age spots. While praising the team's beautification abilities, clients also took time to laud staff members' personable, informative style, and the warm atmosphere they cultivate. Other services offered include Botox, Velashape II, cellulite reduction, iLipo ULTRA, skin therapies, Vaser Shape, and IPL photofacial. All machines are FDA-approved.
The recipe for beautiful skin is simple: combine attentive care with innovative technology. At least that's the view of L'Essentiel's Dr. Vatche Seraderian and Susanna Barmakian. They draw from a well-curated collection of epidermal therapies to create custom regimens for their clients, saving skin from the embarrassment of arriving at parties with identical glows. Six different chemical peels, four injected dermal fillers, and two means to permanent hairlessness form the crux of the spa's smoothing repertoire.
With more than 40 years of combined experience, the clinical staff at Finesse Cosmetic Laser & Lipo Center works to beautify faces and bodies with a wide range of medical aesthetic procedures. Medical director and founder Dr. Peter Kruy performs laser- and ultrasound-assisted liposuction designed for reduced trauma and faster recovery times, while a team of nurses and medical aestheticians handles non-invasive treatments such as VelaShape body contouring or laser hair removal. The staff prioritizes client comfort by listening carefully to questions and concerns, and by outfitting their well-appointed waiting room with cushy chairs, a burbling wall fountain, and a choir of whales crooning lullabies.
Under the guidance of Dr. Cela Doppelt, the staff at Salon One MedSpa deftly iron out facial wrinkles with quick, minimally invasive Botox treatments. Technicians spend roughly 15 minutes injecting each targeted area with 20 units of Botox, delivered in quick succession to squelch wrinkles' stream of empty promises. The muscle-relaxing serum burrows its way through dermises to ease eyebrow furrows, crow's feet, and forehead lines for up to four months.

'Child sex abuse MP Cyril Smith would have been brought to justice today' say police
Related Articles
Published: 28 November 2012
A police force's admission that late politician Sir Cyril Smith sexually and physically abused young boys in the 1960s has brought relief to some of his victims.
Smith, who was elected to Parliament in 1972, was dogged by rumours of abuse throughout his career but charges were never brought.
Last night both Greater Manchester Police (GMP) and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said if Smith had been accused today he would be charged and prosecuted.
Speaking to the Daily Mail last night Barry Fitton, who said he made repeated allegations that he was abused by Smith, said: "He's got to be stripped of his knighthood and his MBE. And I want an apology from all those who said I was lying."
Another victim Alan Neal, a councillor for the Community First party in Rossendale, told the paper: "For 48 years, people have chosen to say we were telling lies when we were telling the truth.
"Sadly some of them are no longer alive.
"It's still extremely raw and I'm a little bit bitter."
Mr Neal said Smith hit him when he was 11 year-old during a stay at a hostel, but when he told police four years later no action was taken.
Last night a GMP spokesman said: "The Force is now publicly acknowledging that young boys were victims of physical and sexual abuse committed by Smith.
"Three separate files regarding Sir Cyril Smith's actions were passed to first the director of public prosecutions (DPP) and the Crown Prosecution Service although on each occasion no prosecution was pursued."
Smith was secretary of the Rochdale Hostel for Boys Association, where he was accused of abusing vulnerable youngsters by spanking and touching them.
GMP has been looking at cases which date back to 1974 - when the force was created - and any before that were investigated by Lancashire Police, who previously covered Rochdale.
Smith, who died in 2010, served as a politician for 20 years before retiring.
Assistant Chief Constable Steve Heywood said although the police had made a "bold" decision in saying Smith abused young boys, there was "overwhelming evidence" against him.
He said: "This has been a very complex inquiry and I hope people understand why it has taken some time before we were in a position to comment publicly.
"It was very important that both ourselves and Lancashire Police examined all our records very carefully so we could be certain what involvement we had in investigating allegations of sexual and physical abuse made against such a high-profile figure as Smith.
"We are now in a position to say that on three separate occasions, files were passed to first the DPP and then the CPS containing details of abuse committed by Smith, but on each occasion no prosecution was pursued.
"Having now reviewed those decisions, we believe that if the same evidence was presented to the CPS today there would have been a very realistic prospect that Smith would have been charged with a number of indecent assaults, and that the case would have been brought to trial.
"Clearly that is a bold statement to make but it is absolutely important for those victims who were abused by Smith that we publicly acknowledge the suffering they endured. Although Smith cannot be charged or convicted posthumously, from the overwhelming evidence we have it is right and proper we should publicly recognise that young boys were sexually and physically abused and we will offer them as much support as they need should they wish to speak to us."
Nazir Afzal, Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS North West, said: "The decision made in 1970 would not be made by the CPS today."
He confirmed a file was handed to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Sir Norman Skelhorn in 1970, which contained allegations made by eight men that they had been subjected to indecent assaults by Smith as teenagers.
But the then DPP wrote back to the Lancashire Constabulary, who had passed on the file, advising against a prosecution.
"Any charges of indecent assault founded on these allegations, as well as being somewhat stale, would be, in my view, completely without corroboration," Sir Malcolm wrote.
"Further, the characters of some of these young men would be likely to render their evidence suspect."
Mr Afzal stressed that decision-making by the current CPS - which was formed in 1986 - is very different.
He said: "It is important to note that this way of thinking bears little resemblance to how such cases are assessed today or in recent years.
"Prosecutors and police now recognise that such crimes normally occur in private and that victims are often targeted because the offender doubts they will be believed."
He urged any victims of historic abuse to come forward, as their cases would be dealt with very differently now.
"Victims of historic sexual abuse are entitled to justice and prosecutions that would not have been attempted in the past are now brought successfully," he said.
"Prosecutors, police officers and judges have a much better understanding than ever before of how these offences are committed.
"Any victims who are considering coming forward should not be dissuaded by the decisions of the past."
GMP said two further people had come forward to report historic abuse by Smith since the allegations have resurfaced in the media in recent weeks, and both are being investigated.
The force also encouraged anyone else who was a victim to come forward, and said that if they received any evidence that anybody still alive was complicit, they would investigate.
Mr Heywood said: "We need to be both realistic and frank that as Smith is no longer alive, we will not be able to bring any criminal prosecution against him.
"We have now taken overall command of this investigation so there is no confusion whatsoever among the public: if you have a complaint, please report it to Greater Manchester Police.
"I would stress that if you do want to speak to someone, your information will be treated with the appropriate sensitivity and in total confidence.
"If we receive any evidence that anyone was complicit in the abuse that is still alive today, we will of course investigate that thoroughly."
Simon Danczuk, the MP for Rochdale, said he was pleased the police files on Smith had come to light and that GMP had revealed the details of its investigations.
"What we now know is that Greater Manchester Police and Lancashire Constabulary were convinced that Smith was guilty of sexual abuse and no cover-up accusations can be laid at their door," he said.
"Officers who were involved in the investigation are extremely angry that he got away with this kind of behaviour for so long and while today's announcement cannot result in Smith being put in the dock or erase the painful memories of humiliation for victims that Smith caused, I hope it will bring a small measure of comfort in knowing that the police believed victims were telling the truth and did their best to prosecute Smith.
"Rochdale has suffered greatly as a result of sexual abuse cover-ups and I believe that Smith set the tone for people thinking they could get away with sexual abuse.
"We've had to come to terms with a lot of difficult truths this year and moving forward I hope as a town we can learn from these mistakes and make sure that protecting young people is absolutely paramount."
He added: "What has become clear today is that Cyril Smith should have been prosecuted. In both the 1960s and 1990s the police believed there was sufficient evidence to prosecute him for sexual abuse.
"We now know that the CPS failed to act on police officers' recommendations on three occasions. In the last week I have met with senior police officers from both Lancashire and Greater Manchester Police force who told me they had seen the files I'd requested at Prime Minister's Questions.
"They were in no doubt that Smith should have been put in the dock and they wanted the victims to know this."
A Liberal Democrat spokesman said: "These allegations are abhorrent and should be taken very seriously.
"Clearly the party does not endorse any person proved to have been in incidents such as these.
"All allegations should have been investigated thoroughly with the authorities taking whatever action necessary.
"Any new allegations should be made to the police.
"The Liberal Democrats are not aware of any allegations being made to the party, and have never been involved in any investigations.
"The alleged incidents and the reported police investigations took place outside of the time Cyril Smith was a Liberal MP."

Bigpoint Announce Huge Player Numbers
Titanic MMO publishers Bigpoint recently announced the latest accounts figures for their collection of popular MMO titles. The company, that is responsible for huge titles such as Farmerama and Battlestar Galactica, have just reached a whopping 250 million created accounts.
Although the titles all use a free to play model, the profits from advertising and micro transactions are sure to have increased also. They also reported that titles like Drakensang Online are currently getting over 250,000 new players registering on a daily basis.
It appears there's no slowing the mammoth that is Bigpoint, and with rumors circulating over a possible Game of Thrones MMORPG, that's yet another record breaker waiting on the horizon.

You don't pay for tutoring
unless you find a good fit!

I have a B.A. in Speech and Communications and a Masters Degree in Speech and Language. I especially love working with special needs children with learning disabilities and language deficits. I have experience in assessment and therapy for Articulation, Language, Autism, and Dyslexia for children and adults. During my tenure with the Palm Beach School District I was able to assist many middle school students with special needs to complete their IEP goals and be mainstreamed to regular classes.
My philosophy for working with young children is that learning strategies are most effective when they are interactive and fun. I have been trained to use auditory, visual, tactile/kinesthetic strategies as well as adult learning concepts.
Prior to becoming a tutor with WyzAnt, I have been engaged in training professionals in technical writing skills and computers, including Microsoft Word, Publisher and PowerPoint. I also tutor phonics, grammar, public speaking, reading comprehension, written expression, study skills, the HESI, NLN, TEAS, SAT, ACT, ASVAB and other eligibility examinations.
During my tenure with WyzAnt, I have been assisting students with their preparation for the Florida State Licensing Exam for Registered Nurses (NCLEX). In addition, I have especially enjoined teaching English as a Second Language to non-native English speakers. Some of my students have been native speakers of Spanish, Portuguese and Swedish.
It is a privilege to teach. I believe there is no better way to serve your fellow man than to help someone learn something that will enable them to have a better life.
My English preparation program for the ACT includes an initial assessment to determine the specific areas that are most challenging for the ACT candidate. Once this determination has been made a program is developed that includes review of all of the under developed areas as noted in the evaluation. In addition grammar, vocabulary development, reading comprehension, identifying, critical analysis and interpretation of different literary genre as well are included. The development of an outline for writing a narrative from a writing prompt is a vital part of this program and is based on the writing criteria published for the ACT.
I have a Master's Degree in Speech and Language. My training and experience have enabled me to develop very specific skills in teaching reading comprehension from a linguistic basis. I have been teaching reading and related language decoding skills to children and adults for more than 20 years. Specifically, I have taught high school reading and language arts programs in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and here in Florida. I have also been teaching advanced reading comprehension skills to college students here in Florida for the past 10 years.
I have worked with students diagnosed as ADD/ADHD for more than 20 years. As a speech and language professional, I have also been involved in writing as well as implementing their Individualized Education Plans (IEP) and/or Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) for children under three years of age. In addition, I have also been involved in developing behavioral curriculum in order to create stress free environments for children with such diagnosis in an effort to increase opportunities for them to engage in pre-reading/pre-math and reading, math and language activities with other children their own age.
I have a Master's in Speech and Language Pathology. I have worked with children and adults with a variety of neurologically based learning disabilities for more than 30 years. As a result, I have experienced working with children diagnosed as having Asperger's Syndrome before the teaching profession had identified clinically proven activities for dealing with the behaviors that manifest as a result of the syndrome. Many of the techniques used to teach children with other learning disabilities can be manipulated effectively to give these children the support they need to acquire excellent reading, language and social skills. Over the years, I have developed my own techniques, such as scaffolding for visual learners that have proven highly effective, especially in teaching reading.
I was the Director of Sunday School for the Greater Mt. Sinai Church, West Palm Beach Florida and Adult Sunday School Teacher for 5 years. I was also the Director of Education for the Women of Excellence for the same faith based facility for 5 years. I have written and taught biblical studies for women, children and the general population over the past 13 years and am currently a member of the Bishop's Council of the United Fellowship of Churches, Inc. As the Executive Secretary of this organization, it is my responsibility to write articles on Christian education, apologetics, and a variety of biblical studies for the UFC publications and website.
I have owned and operated two different businesses during my career. I started a fashion design business with a $500 loan from my retirement fund. At the time I worked as a school teacher and had the summers off. With 2 young daughters at home, I really didn't want to commit to a 9-5 job during the summer months, so I thought I could do something part time with another skill I had refined over the years. I purchased various cuts of fabric, threads and sewing notions. Fortunately, since I had been sewing since I was a teenager, I already owned a straight stitch and a 4-thread serger. I cleared my family room, confiscated by husband's pool table as a cutting table and scheduled my work time from 6:00AM to 12PM for cutting, sewing and fitting garments and again from 9PM to 11PM when I conducted finishing and administrative duties like inventory, planning, designing and accounting. In just a few weeks I had about 25 outfits completed. I recruited 8 of my close friends, one of which had modeled for several years in Milan, Italy, to model the garments. I selected a date, invited more friends, acquaintances and anyone who would listen and held a fashion show to introduce my designs. I was consequently invited to speak at a local women's conference and show more of my work. "In the Spirit Designs" was born from these meager beginnings. This company operated for about 10 years but was put to rest do to personal life changes. However, it was revived again in 1995 when I migrated to Freeport, Bahamas. During stay there, I also started a plumbing supply import-export business for contractors. This was purely by accident, as I traveled to the US monthly to secure fabrics, etc. for my business. One of my friends who was in the contracting business asked me to do some research on plumbing and electrical suppliers while in the States. Even though I knew nothing about plumbing, electrical or building contract work, I knew how to negotiate and was able to close a $200,000 contract on the my first attempt. I also knew how to set up a business, develop a business plan, secure funding, keep records and see to the day to day operations of managing a flourishing operation. I continued with the organization for several years even after I returned to the U.S. to live.
Currently, I am operating my tutoring business, contracting with WyzAnt as well as private clients. Over the years, I have helped students, friends, acquaintances and others start their own businesses, assist them with securing funding, training staff, writing training and technical manuals and developing policies and procedures for the day to day operations of their companies. I have worked with one-person operations as well as companies with 200-300 employees, with budgets from $20,000 to $2,000,000 annually.
I am a licensed cosmetologist with thirty years of experience. I also have my supervisory certificate which allows me to oversee the set up of a new salon and supervision of students who are interning at a salon in preparation for taking the license exam. I have tutored many students in preparation for the licensing exam in various states. Even those students who have unsuccessfully taken the exam have been able to accomplish their goal after tutoring with me for a very short time. My tutoring techniques include study skills, test-taking strategies and content knowledge development that is built on a strong foundation of infection control, state rules and regulations, anatomy and physiology, chemistry, study of skin, and best salon business practices.
I have taught children diagnosed with Dyslexia from ages 6 through high school in the Camden, New Jersey School District from 1979 through 1995. In addition, I have taught dyslexic students in the Palm Beach County, FL School District who were enrolled in the Adolescent Language Program from 1995 through 1998. I have also tutored college degree candidates who are diagnosed dyslexic in an effort to assist them with achieving passing scores for college entrance exams such as the SAT, ACT and TEAS. I am currently working with two students, both of whom are dyslexic along with language and other learning dysfunctions that hinder their academic progress.
I taught K-6 for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for 5 years; the Camden New Jersey School System for 10 years and 6th grade in Palm Beach County, Florida for 3 years. During those experiences, I developed curriculum for special needs children who had not been diagnosed and provided assistance to keep them on track with the regular classroom material. I taught social studies, science, math, language arts as well as helped them with special projects that required research beyond the classroom. I sphere headed a literacy program that focused on vocabulary development and reading comprehension for elementary boys using comic books and short stories about super heroes to get them engaged and keep them motivated while learning.
My English program includes an initial assessment to identify specific areas of challenge for the client. Once this has been analyzed a program is developed to meet the needs of the individual. Areas of tutoring include phonics/phonetics, grammar, writing, vocabulary development, literature and reading comprehension. A strong foundation in the encoding and decoding of one's native language is essential to being successful in the attainment of knowledge in other subject areas, including the acquisition of another language. I often incorporate material from specific subject areas that may be challenging to the student as part of the overall tutoring program. For instance, if the student is struggling in the area of science and also has difficulty with verb tense, reading material from the specific are of science the person is studying is used to enhance vocabulary develop, work on verb tense and study scientific concepts.
I have a Master's Degree in Speech and Language from Trenton State College. I am currently teaching English as a Second Language to a native Portuguese speaker. In addition, I have taught ESL to native Swedish speakers in the past year. I have taught ESL to native Spanish speakers ranging from ages 3 to adult during my professional experience. I am also certified to administer certain language assessments to young children who are native Spanish speakers to determine their level of proficiency in English.
My program for teaching grammar includes a variety of techniques. With young children, who are just learning sentence structure, as well as developing their vocabulary I include games and activities that are fun and interesting. We also use various computer generated materials that are engaging and allow children to progress at their own pace. Each client is given an initial assessment in order to determine what skills are already in place and where we need to begin.
For adults who are interested in improving their writing skills for employment purposes or perhaps are returning to school and need to write essays, reports and term papers, I always teach the rules for using the different types of punctuation, review the parts of speech, tense, types of sentences and basic sentence structure to ensure they have all of the foundational information to produce grammatically correct English language materials.
I have taught English as a Second Language for many years. My background is in speech and language. This gives me a unique ability to help students understand and produce the phonemes in the English language in the appropriate manner. I also compare the linguistic differences in the students native language with English to help them understand the various rules of English grammar versus the rules of their native language. I include all of the aspects of the IELTS test sections in my tutoring program and offer my students frequent opportunities to take mock IELTS exams to help them become familiar with the testing situation.
If a student has already taken the IELTS, I use their previous information to analyze the test taking skills as well as their proficiency in the various sections of the test. This information is used to help them focus on specifically challenging areas in order to improve their scores where needed.
I use Publisher to prepare a variety of publications for my church, including weekly church programs, postcards, posters, banners and newsletters for marketing purposes. I also use this program to design and publish a magazine, handbooks and other documents used in teaching biblical studies, programs for conferences, conventions and revivals. I recently started using Publisher to design forms to collect data and maintain information for our Ministry of Helps.
I have been working with nursing students helping them to prepare to take the State Licensing Exam (NCLEX) for the past several years. Most of my students have come to me after having taken the test at least once and failed. I have been able to help them organize their study program to improve their retention of information as well as coach them in areas of information that have been especially challenging for them. I also continually review the test material to make sure my students have the most up-to-date information on the test focus areas.
I have a Master's Degree is Speech and Language and am thoroughly trained in teaching English through phonics and phonetic fundamentals. I have been teaching children and adults using phonics for more than 20 years. In addition, I have developed curriculum to teach phonics to preschoolers, elementary, middle and high school aged children with special needs in language and articulation and adults who are learning English as a second language. I have also trained other teachers to administer phonetic assessments and to implement phonetic curriculae.
As a Missionary licensed by the United Fellowship of Churches, Inc., I preach the gospel at various churches and faith based events as invited. Prior to my induction into the ministry, I conducted train-the-trainer workshops for Palm Beach County Head Start for nine (9) years, wherein I taught early childhood professionals the art of conducting oral presentations on teaching techniques they developed in their classrooms to their peers. I have also made a variety of presentations at Head Start training events in the county, Atlanta and Detroit at their National Conferences.
I am a licensed Missionary with the United Fellowship of Churches, Inc. I also currently host an Internet Radio program, "Learning to Worship Him," where I teach a half-hour bible study each week. I was previously the Director of Education for Women at my church for four years, as well as the past Sunday School Director, adult bible study and teen bible study teacher. I have also taught life application classes in spirituality to teens.
My program for teaching SAT reading includes a review of all of the different types of genre, identifying the main idea or author's purpose, differentiating between the main idea or thematic statement and supporting ideas; as well as, making inferences, detecting the author's tone and style, applying key statements to similar situations or ideas, determining relationships between different parts of a passage and taking information from other sources and finding how it influences what is written in the target passage. I provide extensive work in the area of vocabulary development, including synonyms, antonyms, and word analogies. All aspects of grammar are also an integral part of the SAT test preparation program which includes identifying parts of speech, different sentence structures, and punctuation.
My program for SAT writing includes vocabulary development, use of synonyms and antonyms; sentence structure, grammatical usage, and punctuation; organization including paragraphing, logical flow and structure; and how to develop content using examples and reasoning. I also review essay formats and extensive reading comprehension to expose the student to a variety of materials. This provides the student with enhanced knowledge of a variety of subjects that could possibly be selected for the prompt and assignment for the essay.
I currently operate In the Spirit Designs which designs and constructs garments for the clergy. Garments include chimeres, cassocks, stoles, copes and mitres, as well as various custom designed jackets, suits and dresses for ladies. In the past, I was partner in a company called Creative Impulses. I was the head designer. We designed off the rack and custom made high end sportswear for women. I have also traded my designs at well renowned craft exhibits such as the Delray Affair, the Baptist Convention, United Fellowship of Churches Annual State Convention and numerous other craft shows and exhibits around the country.
I have a Master's Degree in Speech and Language. I worked for more than 20 years prior to coming to Florida with Special Needs children from birth to high school age. I wrote the proposal and implemented the program in the Camden, New Jersey School District for mobilized units that conducted early assessment for preschool age children to determine their need for intervention and ultimately a successful school experience. This pilot program was later dubbed "Child Find" nationally. Upon arrival in Florida, I operated the Adolescent Language Program (ALP) in the Palm Beach County School District for 3 years before moving into the Child Care arena.
I have a Master's Degree in Speech and Language Pathology and have worked as a Speech and Language Therapist with children and adults in schools, hospitals and private settings for more than 30 years. My work has included articulation therapy, language development and remediation with learning disabilities, autism, hearing impaired and stuttering. I have also worked with brain injuries and stroke patients.
My test-taking program for all entrance exams involves review of the following academic skills: vocabulary, verbal reasoning, and the ability to relate ideas logically, including synonyms and analogies; reading comprehension of short passages and answering questions about that passage.
My writing program teaches the student to express their thoughts from written, verbal and/or picture prompts. They are taught how to develop a outline to develop their written narrative and to include an introduction, the topic sentence, detailed supporting sentences, and a conclusion, while using appropriate grammar. Preparation for the SSAT also includes review of math concepts such as word problems, umber problems, concepts and operations, algebra and Geometry. Each students needs are assessed and a program developed to meet their special challenges.
Since I first started teaching back in 1977, I have always incorporated teaching study skills to my students. Getting organized, prioritizing subject matter and developing a focused plan for study is foundational for academic success at every level. So regardless to whether I am teaching language arts, science, social studies or math the first thing I teach is getting a system that meets each students individual needs. Learning how to study is almost is equally as important as learning the material.
I have been teaching the different areas of the TEAS exam to students for several years. I first became interested in this area as a monitor for another nursing eligibility exam. Many of the local colleges that have nursing programs use the TEAS exam to determine eligibility for their nursing candidates. The English, Math and Science portions of this exam are similar to many other college entrance exams such as the SAT,and ACT exams. I have taught English vocabulary development, grammar and writing to high school and college level students for 20+ years. In my work with special needs students, it became customary for me to assist them with their Science and Math to ensure they were meeting all of their requirements for their Individualized Educational Plans which were often part of the regular curriculum administered with accommodations. Therefore, I became well versed in teaching all of the subjects that are required to pass the TEAS exam. In addition, I have studied the test format including how the questions are developed, selected and revised and I am familiar with the types of questions used, the timing format and nationwide distribution of questions over the various regions.
I have taught English as a Second Language for many years. My background is in speech and language. This gives me a unique ability to help students understand and produce the phonemes in the English language in the appropriate manner. I also compare the linguistic differences in the students native language with English to help them understand the various rules of English grammar versus the rules of their native language. I include all of the aspects of the TOEFL test sections in my tutoring program and offer my students frequent opportunities to take mock TOEFL exams to help them become familiar with the testing situation.
If a student has already taken the TOEFL, I use their previous information to analyze the test taking skills as well as their proficiency in the various sections of the test. This information is used to help them focus on specifically challenging areas in order to improve their scores where needed.

Wow! Love it! Just posted it for a friend who has a little pony girl and will try to remember it for my niece if it turns out she likes horses.
Ooh, ooh, I know: it's a wine bottle holder! (It makes it look like the horse is drinking from the bottle).
Not exactly a sweater, but I bought DH and myself each one of these last winter and we both LOVE them! Cozy warm without being bulky alone or with something underneath. Machine wash & air dry well....
Another thing I have done for inexpensive cards is just add text to a photo and print at the usual 4x6 photo price.
Have fun, everybody! I love secret santa, but finances are a little tight this year (too many visits from our favorite vet), so I thought I should probably sit out this time. I'll try to be back...
I've seen Fresh Paint before, but not the detail of masking tape! Love it!
I did a costume class the other year with a pony of my trainer's I was riding. Owing to our collectively diminutive...
I use dinner & supper more or less interchangeably, but my dad says when he was a kid it was breakfast, dinner & supper. No lunch.

I cheered out loud when I saw that he'd been caught! So glad he's on his way to healing and home.
GypsyQ: we must have posted at the same time, but don't worry about yellow or green. With his eyes, those colors are almost never on the list for anything! :lol:
Thanks, guys! I actually just sent DH some pics from the Behr project creator with some blues similar to what some of you suggested, so we'll see if he's on the same page as us! Of course, this...
DH and I want to re-paint our bathroom, but cannot come up with what color! The floor is black stone tile (staying) and the walls are white tile (also keeping) up to about 4-4.5ft and white wall...
Love it! Good luck!
Love love LOVE!!!!!!!!!!! So happy for your dd. :)
Yay! I just thought of this the other day. I can't commit just yet until I see how some things shake out, but I so hope to. I love SS!!!
Ooh, thank you lovemyboy! I will see if I can track some of those down. I've been doing some light riding in them (mostly walking) this last week or so and they are getting better, just very slowly.
Thanks, Chaila!
Would the alcohol help inside the heel? I may have to try that. I tried molefoam/skin and it not only did not stay put through one ride, it made the crushing worse.
Just curious if anyone has good/bad reports? Know them? Although it's probably window-shopping, I did find a saddle on their website I like and they offer what sounds like a very generous trial...
I am really rough on boot zippers, so I jumped on a chance at an unworn pair of pull-on Der Daus a few months ago. I knew when I bought them the foot size was a little big, but I've had luck adding...
Well, I landed similarly years ago and although all I really got was a big bruise, it hurt like the dickens initially and I went to the ER to make sure I hadn't cracked something, too. But, no, I...

In announcing Mr. Kelley's resignation in an article on Jan. 13, the newspaper said it concluded a seven-month investigation of his work without resolving whether he had fabricated or embellished any articles in his two-decade career. At the time, Karen Jurgensen, the newspaper's editor, was quoted in the newspaper as saying that in many instances, ''the difficulty of retracing events in distant war-torn countries made verification impossible.''
But after being alerted that an article Mr. Kelley wrote from Pakistan in 1998 contained a number of passages similar to an article that had appeared in The Washington Post, the newspaper reopened its investigation, installing the outside editors at its helm. A team of USA Today journalists read about 720 of Mr. Kelley's articles dating from 1993 and examined closely about 150.
Among the newspaper's findings was that Mr. Kelley's eyewitness account of the bombing of a pizzeria in Jerusalem in August 2001, contained observations that the newspaper now believes to be erroneous.
''Three men, who had been eating pizza inside, were catapulted out of the chairs they had been sitting on,'' Mr. Kelley wrote in the front-page account. ''When they hit the ground their heads separated from their bodies and rolled down the street.''
USA Today wrote yesterday that Mr. Kelley, ''by his own account, 90 feet away and his back to the pizzeria,'' would have been hard-pressed to witness such a scene. ''Regardless,'' the paper continued, ''no adult victims were decapitated.'' The article was one of nine that the newspaper's editors included in nominating him for the Pulitzer Prize for beat reporting.
Another article, Mr. Kelley's front-page account, in February 2000, of six Cuban refugees who drowned in a storm ''was a lie from start to finish,'' the paper wrote.
Atop that article, which was later reprinted in Reader's Digest, the newspaper published a photograph of one of the refugees that Mr. Kelley said he had taken days before the voyage that would claim her life. The newspaper said it had recently located the woman, and that she is ''alive, married, pregnant and now living in the southeastern United States.''
Mr. Kelley's former colleagues said they were shocked by the lengths he had gone to deceive his editors as they investigated his work.
Yesterday, the newspaper published a script Mr. Kelley had apparently prepared for a man in Jerusalem, asking that he play the role of ''David,'' an Israeli intelligence agent who might assure his editors of the accuracy of an article he had written from Hebron in 2001 about ''vigilante Jewish settlers'' who were ''shooting and beating Palestinians.''
''I need you to be 'David' one more time,'' Mr. Kelley implored in the message, which was dated July 18, 2003 and found on his laptop. ''This will be it. I promise. No more.''

Qatar Airways has the best business class in the world
Published Date
Dubai, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES – Qatar Airways has been honoured in Dubai for the second consecutive year with the Best Business Class in the World award by readers of the Middle East edition of the prestigious industry magazine Business Traveller.
The Doha-based airline beat off stiff competition from neighbouring regional airlines to take home the coveted award, presented at a lavish ceremony held at the Emirates Towers hotel. Guests from across the regional and global travel, tourism and hospitality industries attended the annual event.
It was a fitting start to Qatar Airways' week-long presence at Arabian Travel Market (ATM), the Middle East's premier regional travel trade show, starting today in Dubai.
Qatar Airways Chief Commercial Officer Marwan Koleilat collected the award on behalf of the airline from renowned Michelin star Italian chef and restaurateur Giorgio Locatelli, adding to the carrier's growing list of international honours.
Voting by readers of Business Traveller Middle East was based on the strength of the airline's inflight service, cabin comfort, ground hospitality and product offerings for travellers in Business Class. Superior seating with a pitch of up to 78 inches, above the industry norm, and fully flat beds are a hallmark of the airline's Business Class cabin onboard its flagship long-haul aircraft, the Boeing 777.
In addition, voters gave their thumbs up to the airline's Oryx Multiplex in the Sky interactive inflight entertainment system offering passengers across all cabins with over 1,000 diverse audio and video options covering music, games, movies, TV programmes and much, much more.
Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker said the latest award reflected the airline's continued commitment to excellence.
"On behalf of Qatar Airways, I would like to thank the readers of Business Traveller Middle East magazine for once again giving their vote of confidence to us and strongly believing in our product, service, hospitality and professionalism in the air and on the ground," he said.
"Our customers are true advocates of our product and it is a delight to see their support of our premium cabin across the network, whether on short- or long-haul routes for which we promise an unrivalled experience."
Qatar Airways is exhibiting at ATM throughout the week, promoting its new Business and Economy Class seats on its soon-to-be-delivered Boeing 787 aircraft. The carrier is the Middle East launch customer of the 787 Dreamliner with 60 aircraft on order.
During ATM taking place at the Dubai Convention and Exhibition Centre, Qatar Airways is also promoting its new routes for 2012 and will unveil expansion plans covering a wide network of destinations across the carrier's global network, during a press conference hosted by Al Baker tomorrow (May 1).
Over the next few months, Qatar Airways will launch flights to Baghdad, Erbil, Kilimanjaro, Mombasa, Perth, Zagreb, Helsinki, Zanzibar, Belgrade and Yangon.
Qatar Airways has seen rapid growth in just 15 years of operation, currently operating a modern fleet of 108 aircraft from its Doha hub to 113 key business and leisure destinations across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, North America and South America.

Attendance in college football is the number of tickets sold (or otherwise distributed) plus all the passes given out for the press box and field, plus I think everyone who works at the stadium. It's basically intended to be as high a number as possible.

|At the very least, Harbaugh
It's easy to say that in hindsight, but Harbaugh in 2002 had no coaching experience, outside of a little unpaid stuff he apparently did on the side at Western Kentucky.
In any event, the man who did get the job, Loeffler, has turned out to be an excellent QB coach in his own right. Maybe the question to ponder is, what if he had been promoted to OC in 2006? Maybe his career trajectory could have been accelerated.

To look at Michigan football, I don't think our defense gave up 400 yards to Gary Nova just because of matchups or playcalling - we were in disarray as a team and not playing together. OTOH, I don't think Gardner was able to throw for 450 yards on OSU last year just due to an unusually good gameplan by Borges. We had early success offensively, the team realized it could play with OSU (a team on a 23-game winning streak, mind you) and it went balls-to-the-wall the rest of the game.

You've got a pretty idealized vision of pro basketball in Europe. The reality can be quite a bit different.
There can be a lot of pressure on American players in Europe. Europeans tend to expect all American players to be superstars and will often turn on them if they don't live up to that. Fans over there are just a different breed, more aggressive and confrontational (whether to their own players or opponents'). Racism in European countries can be really nasty, far beyond what you'd see in this country.
Some European leagues are also very irregular when it comes to paying players on time and otherwise treating them like valued employees. There are lots of stories of megalomaniac owners who refuse to pay their players after a tough loss, and so forth.

It actually might not be so bad if they leave before Beilein retires.

If they remain loyal assistants to Beilein to the end of his career, that'd be great for Beilein's program but then we'd probably be replacing Beilein with a rookie HC who might need time to grow into the job.
