Adeptia Integration Suite is an enterprise-class software product that is designed to integrate ANY APPLICATION with ANY DATA at ANY LOCATION. It combines process centric and services (SOA) based approach with application and partner integration. Our hybrid integration option easily and quickly automates data flows and connects applications using industry-specific standards.
Adeptia's hybrid integration option is a web-based, graphical, easy to use solution that allows customers to integrate disparate information sources, databases and software applications both within an enterprise and across customers, vendors and business partners. These integration data flows can be implemented within hours and days.
Adeptia is UNIQUE because it enables automation of not just system-to-system (straight thru) data flows but also the more common human-to-system or system-to-human business processes where business users need to interact with running data flows to view information, correct errors and resubmit data if needed.
Adeptia Integration Suite allows companies to "centrally manage" all their integration interfaces from one, web-based application. All the application touchpoints, database connections, protocols, Web Services, formats and schemas, mapping rules, data validations, triggers, alerts and notifications and run-time logs are all managed from one place. On an ongoing basis, as rules and formats change, this approach really simplifies the process of maintaining all the interfaces and data bridges.
Our solution offers IT staff an easy and simple way to deliver highly complex process based integration for changing business needs. This enterprise-class software allows companies to leverage the Internet by deploying extended enterprise processes that link partners, suppliers and customers. The hybrid integration option is based on JAVA and XML technology. It combines powerful data transport functionality with comprehensive data mapping and transformation capabilities. It is perfectly suited for Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) and Business to Business integration (B2Bi) scenarios.
This product has the following key components:
Adeptia Integration Suite offers all the features and functionality that one would need in a complete process-centric, SOA-based application integration suite. This includes the following capabilities:
As noted above, Adeptia Integration Suite is a complete software solution that helps companies fully automate their data flows and integration interfaces. Some of the main benefits of the Adeptia solution are:
Adeptia Integration Suite is a flexible software product that is an ideal platform to create many types of data connectivity solutions and address different types of integration needs. Data Integration solutions offer a number of business benefits to companies. Some of the common uses of the product are listed below:
Enterprise Application Integration (EAI): Our suite is perfectly well-suited for the typical application integration scenarios commonly found when connecting interfaces between various back-end systems and databases. Even in scenarios where the primary integration need is not EAI, there is still a need to connect with at least one back-end application or database either as a source or target. Adeptia can act as an Integration Broker and can connect with any message queue or Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) using the pre-built JMS protocol to exchange transactional or bulk messages.
Business to Business Integration (B2Bi): Many Adeptia customers use this solution to connect more easily and quickly with external organizations whether they are suppliers, partners, customers, distributors and regulatory bodies. This solution allows an organization to receive and automatically process files in different formats from various sources. This solution, for the first time in a single product, allows companies to extend their internal business processes to encompass external entities.
Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) for Business Intelligence (BI): The ease of use and collaborative environment in Adeptia significantly reduces the time it takes to design and automate data flows. Adeptia offers pre-built data flow templates for quick configuration and deployment.
Software as a Service (SaaS) Integration: Adeptia Integration Suite is attractively priced and is available on a subscription pricing model. This significantly reduces the size of the budget needed and also reduces the risk of trying this solution. This is another factor that makes the advantages and benefits of the suite accessible to everyone.
Integration Middleware: Adeptia software with its services repository is ideal for use as an SOA integration middleware where all the services and data flows can be created, managed and tracked from a single web-based interface.
Services SOA Enablement: Many organizations have initiatives to extend their investments in legacy, existing applications by creating a services layer as a front-end to them. The adoption of Web Services has accelerated this trend and has made Web Services Enablement a credible integration strategy. Adeptia provides all the functionality needed to create a web services layer because it includes not only the Web Services client capability but also the ability to publish data flows as Web Services thus allowing business functions and integration APIs to be created for older applications.

GREENPOINT YMCA Winter/Spring 2011 Membership & Program Brochure ExxonMobil Created New Green Technology Program for Teens with $150,000 Donation to the Greenpoint YMCA With a history of generous support to the Greenpoint YMCA, ExxonMobil made a groundbreaking gift of $150,000 in 2010 to create a new Green technology program for teens in the Greenpoint and Williamsburg com- munities. The Greenpoint Green Team Summer Program was launched in the sum- mer of 2010 with a grant from ExxonMobil. The program was developed and administered in partnership with the NYU Wallerstein Collaborative for Urban Environmental Education and the Greenpoint YMCA. This program, which has seen great success running in other parts of the U.S., establishes the Greenpoint YMCA as a leader for creative, cutting edge programming for teens and the go-to organization for grassroots, ground-up program building and partnership. This environmental education initiative for high school students was designed to include four overarching themes: green technology, careers, community service and history. Students developed a sense of place and made connections to people and resources in the community and increased their knowledge of native plants, composting, and street tree care. They were able to apply the knowledge and skills to the Lentol Garden project. The participants increased their skills in collabo- ration and teamwork and learned about environmental issues impacting eir community. They also learned about environmental careers and opportunities available to them through the Greenpoint YMCA and NYU. ExxonMobil is truly a lead supporter of teen development, green tech- nology and community service. We at the Greenpoint YMCA are so grateful for this support, and look forward to the return of the program in 2011. | i | Greenpoint YMCA Youth & Family Staff Training Academy Sponsored by ExxonMobil All of us at the Greenpoint YMCA extend our heartfelt thanks to ExxonMobil, who through their generous grant of $25,000 have made possible the "Greenpoint YMCA Youth & Family Staff Training Academy sponsored by ExxonMobil."

We have always been committed to providing our staff with trainings that exceed New York City Department of Health mandated training regulations as well as the standards for American Camp Association accreditation and are striving to exceed National School Aged Child Care Alliance and National Association for the Education of Young Children standards.

Your child must be able to per- form ALL the skills in the previous level to be enrolled into the next level. Children learn physical skills at different rates; therefore it is very common for children to repeat a level. All children will be swim-tested the first day of the session to determine if they are registered for the appropriate class. Instructors reserve the right to switch any participant who they feel is not enrolled in the appropriate level into the correct level. Swim Lesson Policies Although we strive for consistency in the teaching staff, there are occasions when a substitute teacher will be necessary. This is a better alternative than canceling a lesson. While we encourage parents to discuss their child's swim progress with the swim instructors, to help classes start on time please request an appointment with the instructor if time between classes does not permit for a complete discussion. Make-up Lessons and Swim Credit 1. Classes missed due to weather, holidays when the YMCA remains open, or by choice of the participant can not be made up, credited or refunded. 2. If a participant misses a private swim lesson and does not inform the instructor at least 24 hours prior to the lesson, there will be no credits, or make up lessons given. Private swim lessons are non-refundable. 3. If a participant withdraws (with approval) from a swim class at least 1 week (7 days) in advance of the start of class, he or she will receive a full refund. A 50% refund will be granted to participants who withdraw (with approval) after attending 2 classes or less. No refund will be granted to par- ticipants who withdraw after the second class. 4. If a participant withdraws from a swim class for medical reasons he or she will receive a YMCA credit or refund for the remaining classes if the request is accompanied by a doctor's note. | 30 | Leon and Daniel AQUATICS PROGRAMS POLICIES & PROCEDURES Leon began his Shrimp/Kipper class when he was a little more than 13 months old. He was really frightened of the water having only experienced it during our summer beach holiday. Now he loves it, and sees water as a place to swim and play! His favorite is jumping off the side of the pool into our arms. | 31 | Swim Lessons 1. The first day of each session is reserved for swim-testing and evaluations. All appropriate changes will be made to ensure quality instruction for your child. If you have any questions about your child's swim level after the first day of class, please contact Meghan Gough, Aquatics Director at (212) 912-2275. 2. Children will be moved up to the next level once all of the skills in the previ- ous level have been completed. Many skills in certain levels depend on physical development, strength and coordination. Please remember that each child is unique and develops at his or her own pace and their progression through these levels varies greatly. 3. NO street shoes are to be worn on our pool deck and that strollers do not come beyond the locker room doors. Parents please remember that we are trying keep a clean and healthy environment for your children and our participants. 4. For your child's safety, to avoid distractions and so our participants may receive the very best swim instruction, parents are invited to observe class during the first and last classes of each session. On other class days, parents may drop off children and remain for 5 minutes, then return 5 minutes before the end of class. Thank you for your understanding. 5.

Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
1796, "to make the sound of a cork being pulled from a bottle;" imitative. This was the main sense through most of 19c. Meaning "to hit, strike" is attested from 1940s. Related: Clunked; clunking.
[probably all based on clunk, ''make a dull sound,'' found by 1796]

Anyways, I've picked up Lee sin recently and fallen in love, how will the s3 jungle changes effect him? I'd rather play him jungle than top lane :c
Lee Sin is one of my main junglers. I think he will actually benefit from the changes, as he will lose little to no clear speed.
Lee Sin clears with high single target damage and high attack speed bonuses from his passive constantly, so I think the movement of the hp into the larger minions will not hurt him at all (unless of course you miss your q, lol).
The changes should also benefit Kha'Zix, which I am excited about.

The following is an excerpt from my blog of May 25, 2012 at http://learningpond.wordpress.com. I invite people to watch our movie (http://www.francisparker.org/page.cfm?p=1132) and reflect on how true immersion with partner/friends in other countries is very different from normal service learning or overseas tour programs. Since we have established our program we have set up our own NGO through which we can participate in sustainable assistance through and with our partners in the Philippines with no red tape. A great learning experience, and one I would be happy to help others develop and leverage. Here is the extract from my blog post:
A decade ago a couple of teachers and I wanted to start a global program at our school. It did not get legs until about five years ago. At that point we looked at several models for how to create overseas experiences for your students. We asked a lot of questions about the essential outcomes we wanted to create. We tested, probed, experimented, tweaked. We decided these would not be tourist trips. We want to engage with foreign cultures as much as possible, and you do that by getting close to people. We decided we would incorporate a component of service, of giving back, but that the main take-away for our students should be "we received more than we could possibly give, just by being here and sharing with you."
I pushed the envelope the furthest. Long story short: every year I lead a two-week trip to the Philippines. The students stay in villages where the shower is a bucket of water and bed may be the floor. We go back to the same villages each year and have created long-term sustainable partnerships. We have established our own NGO in support of schools, day care centers, an orphanage, and a home for abused girls. We sent immediate relief supplies when the area was hit by a typhoon last year. Demand for the trip is huge every year.
Last year I had two teachers with a combined 40+ years experience with me. Both said the trip was the single most authentic educational experience of their careers.
Guess what is talked about at every one of our admissions events now? Our global trips, and how they really differentiate us from other schools. Guess which trip is used as the model of what we can accomplish in terms of student experience? Our Philippines trip. We created value that has translated into admissions demand for the school, and admissions demand is our lifeblood. We did it by taking risks, pushing at the margins, creating a relationship that never existed.
I am really proud of what we have done; we created something with real value out of nothing but an idea. Real innovation takes time and involves risk, but the payout is worth it. If you want to spend 30 minutes sharing this experience with our students and some great Filipino educators and village folks, watch the movie I made. It's a little long because listening to students talk about this "most authentic educational experience" takes a bit of time. Enjoy!
