With Father's Day approaching, I remembered a speech I heard a man make about child raising. To me, it rings so true. Occasionally, dads and grandfathers need a reminder. I was able to get a copy of his speech. Here is what he had to say.
"I remember when my two were 5 and 7 then. Just the ages when their daddy means everything to them. I wished that I could have spent more time with my kids, but I was too busy working after all. I wanted to give them all the things I never had when I was growing up.
I loved the idea of coming home and having them sit on my lap and tell me about their day. Unfortunately, most days I came home so late that I was only able to kiss them goodnight after they had gone to sleep. It is amazing how fast kids grow. Before I knew it, they were 9 and 11. I missed seeing them in school plays. Everyone said they were terrific, but the plays always seemed to go on when I was tied up. I kept promising that I would have more time 'next year.' But the more I became involved in business, the less time there seemed to be.
Suddenly, they were no longer 9 and 11, they were 14 and 16. I didn't see my daughter the night she went out on her first date or my son's championship basketball game. Mom made excuses and I managed to telephone them before they left the house. I could hear the disappointment in their voices, but I explained as best I could.
Don't ask where the years have gone. Those little kids are now grown and on their own. I can't believe it. My job is less demanding now and I finally have time for them, but they have their own interests and there is no time for me, to be perfectly honest. I'm a little hurt.
It seems like yesterday that they were 5 and 7. I'd give anything to live those years over. You can bet your life I'd do it differently. But they are gone now. And so is my chance to be a real Dad."

Looks great!
We have had this stove for almost a month and it looks beautiful! It sets in to the counter, making the counter space look open and clean.
Most Liked Negative Review
Grates are not sturdy causing pots to slip. Poor quality stainless steel and scratches easy. Burners are to small.

Great Cooktop
By 1812er
from Northwood, OH
This cooktop heats quickly and cleans easily. The burners are a little slippery but we are very happy with it.
cooks great
By jmax
from santa maria ca.
I bought this 3 or 4 months ago. I can boil water and haven't burned anything yet. My wife is primary user and is very happy.
Very satified
By April
from Cleveland, Oh
Very happy with design, functionality, and price point!
Looks great
By waystation
from Douglas, Arizona
I have had this for about a month and am very happy with it. It is easy to clean and operate. And it was easy to install
By n/a
from ventura,ca.
I'am fixing up a rental we have. we are moving my wife's parents in. but have not yet used the cooktop. someone will be cooking for them for they are in there late 90's and will find out then.
Nice cooktop!
By RD
from Peru, NY
This cooktop is a great value. It looks good and works great. Have the installer turn down the "low" setting, otherwise, like on many gas ranges, the flame will be too high to properly simmer without burning. The grates are easy to clean in the dishwasher. Get one!
Great features

One of four electronic gas burners failed to light. Whirlpool sent a repair service and adjusted the' sparking'. Now, just fine.

Was die Leute sagen
I liked that it was in a quiet street but only a five minute walk from the hub of activity. I absolutely loved the Ruby Slipper right next door for breakfast every morning, why go anywhere else!! This place rocks!! The hotel has a general laid back feeling and Thomas at reception was a most helpful and genuine guy. A gold star for him! Or perhaps a payrise, he deserves it! I've stayed all over in my time, I ain't too fussy, I loved this place, I'd stay again.good luck!.

wonderful staff made you feel at home -- very helpful and joyful -- kept the room clean while we were there for 5 days -- had great recommendations and were interested in your adventures in New Orleans; and best of all the whole hotel is non-smoking!!!!!! and you can't beat the location -- access to all of NOLA at your fingertip! Can jump on any streetcar to take you around town; walking distance to French Quarter; Warehouse District and the Riverfront.
Troy was extremely attentive and helpful with tour bookings. The old world charm of the hotel was lovely and close proximity to main attractions a bonus which was why we chose the Pelham, and we were delightfully impressed as it is always hard to gauge accommodation via Internet bookings. We chose due to affordable rates and walking destination for our cruise ship departure. We would recommend and return. Thank you.
I gotta say we loved everything about the Pelham! The location was 2 blocks away from the quarter and the service was great! Shout out to the whole staff especially Troy and Thomas! The room was great and best believe when we get down there again The Pelham will be our hotel! Thanks to Troy for setting us up with citywide tour our guide Henry rocked! And Troy also for hooking us up with Mr. Ray our cabbie.
I loved everything about the Pelham Hotel it was Very Clean, Troy Customer Service Skills were Excellent we told him we never been here before and he told us where to go where to eat etc,MY HOTEL ROOM NEVER RAN OUT OF HOT WATER like the Reviews say I had no signs of the Hotel being Haunted like people on the Reviews said infact when I come back to New Orleans I will stay here again.
Older hotel but restored and decorated very nicely. Loved the heavy wood doors, high ceilings, extensive molding along the walls and door frames. Troy (front desk) was very helpful and a delight. Hotel is located close to the streetcars and two wonderful eating establishments, Mothers (local) and The Ruby Slipper (local). We hope to be back soon.
Troy at the front desk was very helpful. Everything was very clean and exactly as advertised...we appreciated the fact that there were no surprises. The 19 foot ceilings and comfy bed was awesome. The hotel is just off the party streets so the hotel was quiet but within a 5 minute walk you are right in the middle of the action. Great place!.
It was totally beautiful and very comfortable. I loved the wood floors and rooms were just gorgeous.. The price was great and the staff was so fiendly and was able to tell us where we could visit.. Plus I loved having the restaurant on the premise also.. Loved to location close to Bubba Gumps and the shrimp was awesome.. I will be back.
15 Foot cielings in every room with majestic floor to cieling drapery. Rooms were clean, comfortable and quiet. Definitely a great "bang for the buck" hotel. Very convenient to the french quarter and all attractions. Would certainly stay here again. Did not at all feel unsafe in an area that generally could be thought of as unsafe.
The hotel was beautiful with lots of original architecture & charm. It is as old building & you can see that a little but overall great place to stay. The desk staff were incredible, very knowledgable about the area and extremely helpful. James works the night shift & was awesome, from our home town!!.
Brandon at the front desk was very helpful. Helped us figure out the parking situation and accommodations upon check-in. He also recommended for my friend and I to go to the port of call, which was a locals spot, for a chill spot to grab a drink and a burger. We had an awesome time because of his recommendation.
Shaun, Thomas were so much fun and gave us great ideas of what to see and do. We booked all our sightseeing through Shaun. It was super quiet, close to everything. The Pink Slipper next door had amazing food. I can't tell you how much we enjoyed staying at the Pelham. We are booking it for next year.
The hotel and the room was very clean, comfortable beds, decorated nicely, and updated. The front desk staff and valet gentlemen were exceptionally friendly, curteous and attentive. In the morning, one of the front desk attendant's were recommending to everyone, where to eat and directions.
I liked the King size bed, it was very comfortable, loved the shower, had excellent pressure. The room was very clean and had a nice décor to it, matching much of the entire hotel. Also, the staff was nice enough to check me in early since I arrived 2 hours earlier than expected, very nice.
Brandon at the front desk was always amazing!!! You could ask him a million questions and he always answered very professional and with a big smile!! He is definately an asset to this company and a big reason why I will stay here again! Thanks Brandon for making our stay a great one! :-).
Quiet, comfortable, clean, hotel that is within walking distance to everything in the French Quarter and Casinos. Within a 15 minute walk to the wwii museum. Hotel staff is very friendly and goes out the way to make the stay enjoyable. Hotel is off the beaten path and very little noise.
I like the hotel and the Staff attention, but my room was in the first floor and near to employed or exit door... all night there was a lot of noise... I recommend but no for stay in first floor... they have to close that door near to the guess room or close this rooms...
Was very clean beautiful rooms. The staff was very friendly and new a lot about the area and the business in the area. The price on the room was very cheap. I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to New Orleans. Thanks for a great stay in New Orleans Pelham.
The staff was very courtious. My room was clean and there were not long waits for the elevators. This is not a luxurious hotel, but it is nice and it is located close to the Casino, Convention Center and the French Quarter. Overall, I enjoyed my stay there.
This is a good, convenient hotel; The staff is nice and helpful. I like the restaurant located right there by the hotel; There should be something for the guest at the restaurant though. 10% off or something saying these guest are special!!! Great Hotel.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Large room with high ceiling, artwork throughout the hotel and the location was just close enough to the action but far enough away from the noise. The hotel restaurant, The Red Slipper had a delicious menu.
Loved Troy, the night manager; he was so helpful. Loved the location and the traditional N.O. decor, and it was priced just right. There is nothing plastic about this place, and the restaurant next door is super for breakfast of lunch.
Great price for a good location just across Canal St. from the French Quarter... rooms were nice with really high ceilings... valet parking in a private lot was nice, but not if you're going to want your car before check out.
Staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Close to the French Quarter and access to multiple activities. Nice historic feel with flair. Staff aware of some building shortfalls and willing to accommodate specific needs.
Excellent helpful courteous friendly staff especially Brandon and the blonde day staff man both these men made our stay in New Orleans fantastic very comfortable rooms great showers excellent rest next door for breakfast.
Very close, practically in French Quarter! It was a very interesting building and unique to New Orleans charm interior. Ruby Slipper was a grat place to eat. Halloween was a great time altogether in good ol New Orleans.
Our room was small but cozy. We asked for a view under special requests when we booked, and I'm pretty sure we had the best view we could've! The front desk staff and valets were awesome and helped us out a bunch.
Beautiful hotel with high cielings, antique style, comfortable. Spacious room. Very centrally located next to downtown & the French Quarter. Good breakfast place next door. Very friendly evening receptionist.
Loved the foyer, the desk staff was always friendly, and the rooms were beautiful. I loved the high ceiling in the room. The hotel was also just a block from Canal Street making it very convenient to everything.
This was a perfect place to stay with our youth group! The price was right, the location was great, the staff extremely helpful and friendly and the rooms were comfortable. We would definitely stay ther again!.
Great hotel for the price. And the restaurant down stairs is equally awesome. Only a block away from the casino and 4 blocks from bourbon. South of Canal St so the chances of getting mugged are at a minimum.
The location was fantastic! Just one block off canal street, walking distance to everywhere you want to go in the french quarter. Staff was fantastic! Brandon and Troy were great, very helpful, and friendly.
Very elegant rooms with 14' ceilings and antiques. Gorgeous bathroom. Excellent, helpful staff. The restaurant next door, The Ruby Slipper, serves a top notch breakfast. Very close to Harrah's Casino.
The location was perfect. One street over from Canal Street. Perfect for shopping, French Quarter, etc. Parking is about what city parking is but we did overnight parking down the street in a pay lot.
We loved the location. We were able to walk to everything. Never used the car. The staff was great and very helpful. The room was clean and well maintained. The Ruby Slipper was awsome. We will be back.
Location was great Hotel room was very clean and comfortable A very good hotel at the right price and the best thing was the location it was quite but still near all attractions and shopping!.
The location was great, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Walking distance to Bourbon Street. The beds and A/C were excellent. This Hotel had the perfect feel of New Orleans.
Troy on front desk was amazing! He really made our stay he was so helpful & accommodating! Location was great & the rooms were cosy with big comfy beds! Would stay here again!.
We were initially put in a room without windows but were able to move to a room with a window which was much nicer. The room was spacious and comfortable with cable TV and WIFI.
Staff were really helpful and went out of their way to accommodate us. Great value for money and perfect location, not too central but everything is within walking distance.
Location...close to French Quarter and within walking distance to so many places from the free pedestrian ferry, to casino, to Cafe du Monde, to Louis Armstrong Park, etc.
location....I thought Thomas was amazing helped us fine museums an restaurants and locations of various places..friendly and professional...great to have at the front desk.
A prime location for visiting the city, but far enough away from the main streets not to be too noisy. The staff were great, especially Troy! The boys from Toozup say hi!.
The motel was nice good staff it was in walking distance of everything you need to get to in new Orleans so you did not need to drive also the have valet parking.
Excellent location one block from Canal Street and the French Quarter. Very close to the Casino. Friendly front desk staff Keurig coffee available in the morning.
I was very pleased with my stay & Thomas at the front desk was incredibly helpful & an excellent concierge. I will stay here again most definitely :).
The young man at the desk ( afternoon shift). Was so helpful. Unique boutique hotel. Loved the old world charm. Handy to bourbon street. Would stay again.
Location was very good to all of the places we wanted to visit in NOLA. The staff was very friendly / helpful ! Pelham was a good value, price vs. location.
The location was great. We were going to a concert at The House of Blues and were only a five minute walk away. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Super friendly and helpful staff, quiet, very clean and nicely appointed room, great location. Loved the high ceilings, antiques and wooden floors.
only the fact that we didn't have a window, that feels kinda weird!! Also their was quite a strong smell in the room? A masonary smell maybe? I work on construction sites and recognized it but it may be due to the flooding y'all had, like I said I ain't too fussy, you get used to it!!.
I enjoyed everything at this Hotel except on my Last Day My friend somehow made the Toliet overflow and everyone on duty acted like they were scared to come look the front desk sent a lady with a plunger and towels like what part of overflowing didnt u get??? I feel as tho if Troy was working there def would have been a better outcome.
Parking valet is very expensive but with no other options you really have to.
The beds were very uncomfortable, we stayed only three nights so it was bearable.
We couldn't stay longer.
The bathroom in the lobby needed attending to.
I liked everything!!!!.
It is easy to get to once you know how to get there, but hard to find the first time. Parking is valet parking off site so you just can't walk out to car and go somewhere.
Didn't like having to spend a extra 90 dollars on parking for valley but it was worth it. Least the car was taken car of and the hotel had someone on duty 24/7.
My room did not have a coffee maker, microwave or a small refrigerator.
I found 1 bug in my room. This makes me wonder if there were any more. In regards to parking, the staff should know everything regarding city parking as well; Its free to park on holidays; I was told otherwise by the staff.
Room 411 needed some tlc; broken glass under television, broken security latch on door and curtain in shower needed too be replaced.
We both hated the way the beds were made up; we ended up tangled in the top sheet every night. Could also use a little better access to electrical plugs for phone and computer charging.
It took a while to get checked in, but that was just because we arrived right at 3:00 (when check-in starts) and there were other guests arriving as well... parking was expensive (but that's true for all of the French Quarter).
Building is old and has not been kept up to high standard. Not insulated well from exterior street noise and activities.
No windows in room. Morning/day receptionist not very charming/outgoing. Room on ground floor next to elevator.
The T.v was at an odd angle in the room, but the way the room was built, there really wasn't any other place for it to be placed. My sister also could not get the Internet to work, but since it was not a major deal, we did not ask anyone for help with the problem.
Street noise, but that's to be expected anytime you stay in the city.
Can't think of a thing.
Nothing good hotel.
The rooms were small but who goes to New Orleans to stay in the room.
Our initial windowless room. Everything else was fine.
The rooms were a little too dark.
the bathrooms near the red slipper rest..are discusting..and need to be remodeled...and they need a central area near the lobby to sit when your waiting for transporation with a t.v. to keep one preoccupied...other then great place..one more thing pillows are not soft to hard..other then that everything was ok.
Not the biggest of rooms. 2 double beds were a pretty tight fit and there was a cupboard in the room which there was no way to open.
No complimentary breakfast.
Nothing really comes to mind.
Immediately after we checked in a woman knocked on our door because she thought her daughter-in-law was in our room. She came back twice. After we called the front desk we found out that there was someone else in our room and they had moved to another room, we were not informed of this. There were hairs and dust in the bathtub and on the nightstand, and the in-room hair dryer was falling off the wall and filthy. Not as clean as I would have liked.
Only one ice and vending machine area on the ground floor & the drink machine was sold out the entire stay. The room was small, no chair with only a path around the beds and to the bathroom but you don't visit New Orleans to stay in your hotel room.

Avoiding Conversations In Public Relations
Part and parcel for any business is conflict – and sometimes public disputes are necessary and other times they aren't. In this excerpt from "For Immediate Release: Shape Minds, Build Brands, and Deliver Results with Game-Changing Public Relations" by Ronn Torossian, a case is made for avoiding certain conversations:
"Another interesting example of avoiding the conversation was with a political advocacy organization we represent. When there was a move from various non-profit organizations to persuade advertisers to boycott a certain opinion news program, our advocacy group wanted to place ads of support for the show and its host. We knew this would just call more attention to the boycott attempt and help it along. Ultimately, our client wisely decided not to place the ads as they would most likely have galvanized many more people against the show. The boycott would have gained momentum, and the whole story would have turned into a much longer fight and a bigger, more negative story for the program's host who we wanted to succeed. The boycott blew over and the show continued to pull in incredible ratings and many new advertisers despite the short-lived boycott.
Consider potential outcomes and repercussions before getting into any kind of public conversation. Some times getting involved in a fight is a loss: Think of two people screaming at each other in the middle of the street. If you walked by during the altercation, it would be hard to tell which one was right and which one was wrong – who was the aggressor? All you see are two people screaming at each other. Meanwhile, if you had seen the situation from the beginning, you'd know that one guy was bothering and harassing everyone who walked by, and the other had tried to stop him. One guy was clearly the good guy – but how many people are aware of that? Join the pigs in a fight and you risk getting dirty."

At least that's what I thought I wanted.But I don't want to give anyone power over my emotions. When you love someone they hold a spear key to your heart and that's dangerous for someone like me who gives so much of herself when she is in love. I rather give my heart to an animal than a human being.

This was my first stay here and I'll be back. Very little signage on the street made it difficult to find at nighttime arrival. Jose was quick but friendly at check in and the fortune cookie with an extra 100 Marriott points was appreciated. Tiny lobby gave no indication of the great room I walked in to. Nice furnishings, 3 large HD TVs (one in living area and one in each bedroom), nice well-equipped little kitchen, free wireless; all made this a great place to get my pre-meeting work done. Very comfortable bed! Enjoyed my stay and will be back again.

Influence Of Parents, Peers, Internet Product Search And Visual Social Media On College Students' Purchase Behavior: A Mixed Methods Study, 2015 University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Influence Of Parents, Peers, Internet Product Search And Visual Social Media On College Students' Purchase Behavior: A Mixed Methods Study, Jennifer E. Johnson
Textiles, Merchandising and Fashion Design: Dissertations, Theses, & Student Research
Visually-oriented online social networking websites (VSNS) have become frontrunners in the race for popularity among all other online social networks. Pinterest, Instagram, Wanelo, and Snapchat have allowed for consumers to share their everyday lives, as well as the products that define their personal cultures. Products that require less financial and social risk tend to not only be influenced by online social networking websites, but also by peers (Kim & Sung, 2008). Products that require more financial and social risk tend to be influenced by family members and the amount of Internet product search behavior (Drozdenko, Jensen, & Coelho, 2012). Little research has ...

School Gardens: Cultivating A Child'S Nutritional Habits, Environmental Knowledge, And Sustainability Practices, 2015 Colby College
School Gardens: Cultivating A Child'S Nutritional Habits, Environmental Knowledge, And Sustainability Practices, Jeffrey Meltzer
Honors Theses
School gardens have existed since the late nineteenth century and today are becoming increasingly popular in many parts of the world, including where I studied in Maine and Australia (AUS). Multiple organizations support school gardens in Maine, including the Maine School Garden Network, which has over 125 registered school gardens. In AUS, the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Foundation primarily supports the school garden movement and has over 800 registered school gardens. While many researchers have studied school gardens, few have compared two countries, focused on environmental sustainability, or investigated Maine in particular. This thesis combines information from literature reviews, and ...
Bootstrap Blues, 2014 Gettysburg College
Bootstrap Blues, Hannah M. Frantz
Meet David*. In mid-January, he came to the small town Iowa elementary school where I work. David has attended more schools in the two years since he started school than I have in my lifetime. In fact, the school he just moved from only has four days of attendance listed on his record. David moves so often because he's homeless. His situation is not what we may stereotypically think of as "homeless"—you wouldn't see him on the streets or even in soup kitchens. Instead, David stays with his mother, and they couch surf from one home to ...
Family And Consumer Sciences Teacher Educator's Perception Of Integration Of Reading Skill Instruction, 2014 BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY
Family And Consumer Sciences Teacher Educator's Perception Of Integration Of Reading Skill Instruction, Frederick Polkinghorne, Sally E. Arnett-Hartwick
Online Journal for Workforce Education and Development
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine family and consumer sciences (FACS) teacher educators' perceptions on the integration of reading skill instruction in secondary FACS courses. Background: As a result of low national reading scores and legislation, family and consumer sciences (FACS) teachers are being challenged to explicitly teach reading into course curricula but feel untrained to do so. Therefore, this demonstrates that FACS teachers know the value of literacy integration, but lack pedagogical skills too successfully and explicitly integrate literacy in the FACS curriculum. This draws attention to the preparation of FACS teachers, moreover FACS teacher educators ...
Correlations Between Parents' Academic Achievements, Emerging Adult Children's Perception Of Their Parents' Socio-Economic Status And The Educational Attainment Of The Emerging Adult Children, 2014 Iowa State University
Correlations Between Parents' Academic Achievements, Emerging Adult Children's Perception Of Their Parents' Socio-Economic Status And The Educational Attainment Of The Emerging Adult Children, Iris Michelle Young-Clark
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
It has been well-documented by researchers that having a higher socio-economic status (SES) enables one to have greater access to an array of materials, goods, and services to promote or support academic achievement (Sirin, 2005). Education is stressed as the most consistent and reliable means to achievement. The investment in one's higher education benefits not only the individual but also broader society and the fundamental well-being of our nation. Given that vital educational decisions are made during the span of years characterized by adolescent becoming emerging adults, research is needed to explore the basis or association of these decisions ...

A Review Of Studies On Luxury Hotels Over The Past Two Decades, Yin Chu
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to identify current research trends and clarify the changing direction of studies on luxury hotels. Scholarly studies published between 1994 and 2014 were examined through content analysis, using such keywords as "luxury hotels", "deluxe hotels", "upscale hotels", "high-end hotels", and "four- or five-star hotels". The contributions were then screened to focus on luxury hotel-centered topics. The search revealed 70 qualified scholarly research articles. Conceptual studies were limited, with empirical studies representing a majority of the luxury hotel researches. The luxury hotel researches that were identified were categorized into nine groups by research themes: marketing ...
Measuring And Articulating The Value Of Community Engagement: Lessons Learned From 100 Years Of Cooperative Extension Work, 2014 Iowa State University
Measuring And Articulating The Value Of Community Engagement: Lessons Learned From 100 Years Of Cooperative Extension Work, Nancy K. Franz
Education Publications and Papers
The Cooperative Extension System was created in 1914 with the passage of the Smith-Lever Act. The act provided resources to improve access to education by creating this nationwide organization to bring land-grant university research and resources to people where they lived and worked. Cooperative Extension was the first formal nationwide structure created for university–community engagement. Expectations for Extension as an engaged institution have changed over time. Once seen chiefly as a source of private value for program participants in local communities, Extension is now also expected to provide public value for those not directly involved in Extension programs. After ...

Exploring The Relationship Between Financial Behaviors And Financial Well-Being Of African American College Students At One Historically Black Institution, 2013 Iowa State University
Exploring The Relationship Between Financial Behaviors And Financial Well-Being Of African American College Students At One Historically Black Institution, Vivian Mason Fluellen
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
College students are at an important time in their lives as they move from financial dependence to financial independence. Given this concern, motivating young adults to save is an important objective. Research on college students and their finances has focused on credit card use. The current study explored the relationship between financial social learning opportunities and financial behaviors of African American college students at one HBCU. Similar studies have been done at predominately white institutions and community colleges, but none examined 1890 historically black colleges.
The current study drew from social theory to attempt to understand saving behavior. Bandura (1977 ...

Extension and Outreach to Families Publications and Papers
This article describes one team's efforts to assess the culture of engagement at Virginia Tech. The team utilized a two-pronged approach to analyze the current culture of engagement on campus. This included focus groups with faculty, administrators, and graduate students in two colleges at the university to address pedagogy, implications, and practical issues related to engagement.

We found why faculty, administrators, and students conduct engagement work and the challenges and opportunities of doing so. We also discovered what criteria these individuals use ...
A Pilot Study: The Use Of A Survey To Assess The Food Knowledge Of Nutrition Students At Various Levels Of Nutrition Education, 2012 University of Nebraska-Lincoln
A Pilot Study: The Use Of A Survey To Assess The Food Knowledge Of Nutrition Students At Various Levels Of Nutrition Education, Chante Chambers
Public Access Theses and Dissertations from the College of Education and Human Sciences
A working definition of a concept known as 'food literacy' encompasses using basic food preparation knowledge that has been learned, understood, and practiced to make better food decisions. To advance these skills for client service, a post-secondary nutrition program would need to include objectives that allow application of knowledge. For this reason, the purpose of this study was to determine the difference in knowledge and application among students in 100, 200 and 400 level college nutrition course(s). A survey was developed to measure the food knowledge of these college students as they prepare for careers as health care professionals ...

Stoke Edith Hanging, England, 1710-1720. Embroidered linen canvas with silk and wool, and appliqué. Museum no. T.568-1996
I'm Anna Pavord, I'm a writer and a gardener and I would dearly love to be the lady with the fan in this fabulous hanging who is just sort of indicating that she would like to drift round the back of that pond there and go and examine the tulips in the bed opposite. This is an extraordinarily beautiful formal garden. They're things about it that make me feel that it can't be now, but at the same time I sort of recognise the design because we still love this sort of … symmetry, this sense of order around us and it's got all the sort of key things that the most stylish garden makers of the 21st century would be wanting to put into a garden. The thing of course that we wouldn't be doing now is actually being so sparing with the flowers in the flowers beds. This is a very typical design of that period but really but we'd be now cramming those flower beds and we'd be making contrasts of texture and foliage and all those things that garden writers go on about endlessly, but what they've got here is just jewel flowers... the absolute jewel flowers of the late 17th century. But how far they are planted apart in the beds and thats because each one of these would have cost a fortune an absolute fortune. The water feature is still a very very important part of the modern garden too although it wouldn't have been anything like as elaborate as this one. Theres nothing in this garden that wouldn't be much to be desired in the modern garden... these lovely pots, the orange trees, certainly the conservatory at the end… .so I find it remarkably contemporary.
This beautiful book illustrates the highlights of the fine collection of designs for embroidery at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Focusing on designs…
We offer a wide range of tours to meet your group requirements. Whether a group has a special area of interest, wishes to explore a particular gallery or just get an overview of the Museum's collection the Groups Team can help.
PRACTICAL WORKSHOP: Inspired by 'The Fabric of India' exhibition, learn the art of Shisha embroidery, the traditional technique of applying small mirrors, on this one day workshop.

YouTube Musicians Are Doing It For Themselves
It started with Scopitones in bars, then people Wanted Their MTV or watched Friday Night Videos or let their videos Pop Up. The common thread? All that production and distribution took giant piles of money that generally could only come from Big Labels. Then came the march of technology: mp3, mpg, h.264, iTunes, Garage Band, Final Cut, dSLR, and all the rest. Now, not content to just share self-made mp3 audio, the current batch of YouTube musicians are making ever more elaborate music videos, and growing a big audience, without a major label in sight.

Bin collections
Collecting rubbish and recycling bins from your house is the responsibility of your district or borough council.
You can find details of bin collection days and report missed bin collections on the website of the council covering the area where you live:
If you are unsure of what you can put in your recycling bins you can find out in our guide to kerbside recycling [PDF].
District and borough councils may also offer separate collection of glass bottles and jars from your home and some may provide chargeable bulky waste collections. They are also responsible for the smaller recycling banks for items such as clothes, books, cardboard and paper, cans and bottles.
What happens to your recyclables
In Nottinghamshire, all of the kerbside recyclables collected by the seven district councils (paper, card, cans and plastic bottles) are sorted at the Mansfield Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), which is operated by Veolia Environmental Services as part of the Nottinghamshire Waste PFI Contract.
Veolia Nottinghamshire has provided the following statement regarding their outlets for the sorted materials:
"Veolia fully support the UK recycling market and continue to be major suppliers to UK reprocessors. However, at this time, the UK market does not have enough capacity to handle all of the recyclable material being produced and the export market is therefore of critical importance to the UK recycling industry.
Typically, cans and plastics from the Mansfield MRF are reprocessed in the UK, although paper is often exported. There is recognition that these materials are traded on a global market and Veolia is well placed to manage this process within the legal framework, be it trading in the UK or abroad".
