I worked at City Year full-time (More than a year)
The kids. Your teacher (if you're lucky). Your team (if you're lucky). GOING TO THE WHITE HOUSE to see OBAMA and CLINTON (thank you, Americorps!)
I remember looking and reading the reviews on glassdoor a year ago. I saw many things about the service year being difficult, disorganized and time consuming, but did not anticipate just what I was getting myself into. The past year was hard, but in the worst way possible. I did not grow from the experience, but instead learned how a nonprofit that has good intentions can be run in unproductive ways and how a school should NOT be run. First there was "Basic Training Academy" where I cannot tell you one thing that I internalized other than City Year's cult-like culture. Only those with extroverted personalities were highlighted and they made it seem as though only those who accepted the culture would be able to build relationships and have the best impact on their students. A good chunk of the trainings were led by individuals who found statistics on wikipedia and regurgitated information from a cool article they read a month ago. Many of the questions corps members had about their school experience were unanswerable because "it depends on your school" or they literally did not have an answer. Once we finally got to our school, our Program Manager(PM) made all of these empty promises that she never followed up on like, always standing up for us and being our voice in times of trouble. Most days she showed up late because she was "flexing" and then she always had last minute emails to send/busy work she could have done at home but chose to do at school (I won't even mention her snapchat addiction). One of the worst parts is that corps members are expected to be in the classroom ALL DAY, do small groups, transition classes, have recess duty, run after school programs and more, while the Team Leader (TL) and PM sit in a room and gossip all day. When corps members bring up an issue we are treated like abandoned step children who are incapable of making decisions. Our concerns were often met with pushback as though our 40 hours a week inside of a classroom where a teacher appears to be a pedophile, are ignored. Our monthly trainings although are a break from the long days in school are pointless, you are told by leadership that you're never doing enough to help the kids. And given the amount of reflection we are required to have/share you would think that your voice/opinion was actually valuable, wrong! CY staff is full of former [ineffective] teachers, former corps members who haven't found their calling (or want to relive their college years) and inexperienced/entry level professionals who think they know everything there is to know about making a positive difference on a child's life with no help from CMs. You are expected to be in class for a whole day, meet with your small groups, have lunch buddies, prep, turn in trackers, get yelled at by school staff, plan with your teacher, manage recess and so much more. Let's not even talk about the bright red jacket/City Year uniform you are expected to wear every single day. That uniform is trash, it removes any sense of individuality you thought you had and is only good for getting those really tough stains out your tub and toilet. THOSE POOR STUDENTS... Looking back on my CY experience (as i train to become a REAL teacher), I feel terrible that my students and partner-teacher had to put up with my presence for a whole year. I honestly feel like my ignorance throughout my time made my teacher less effective and students ended up relying on me to help them with everything rather than become independent problem solvers. CMs are poorly trained for a few weeks and then they're thrown into a classroom. CY says that CMs are going to tutor students in reading and math, but the training is so bad, who knows what's going on in those small groups. And who knows how CMs are utilized in the classroom. Most times they end up with the role of a teachers aid or disciplinarian and students become dependent on them. CY is generally in low performing, underrepresented minority schools, throwing inexperienced CMs into a classroom is not going to suddenly 'save the day' and melt away the heritage of inequality that these students are branded with. In fact, I would go as far to say that CY is maintaining the achievement gap that these students are cursed with from birth. Every year there are new corps members to train and the students have to build all new relationships, hurting their socioemotional skills/ ability to build relationships with adults. If anyone is truly looking to close the inequality gap in public school education, invest in QUALITY TEACHERS, and then CY's existence will not be necessary.
Advice to Management
Stop asking people for money to maintain the inequality of education that exists in America. A saying I often think of is "good intentions are the pathway to hell." You people at the top can have the best of intentions but if you have no idea what goes on day to day then you have no right to allow this organization to continue with its work. By day to day I don't mean looking at a schedule on a PDF from your office, but spending days at a time in the classroom to really see whats going on.

I truly don't know what to think of this fragrance. Marketing image does not come for me with scent.
Do you know latest scene made by Raynaud? Well, it is much in line. It's like more sporty type of 1 Million or maybe rather The Golden Secret. Somehow more woody than Blue Secret. But instead of class it links in my head with fragrances made for Pull & Bear... Fine, refreshing. But it is not fragrance I would wear to suit. Jeans, t-shirts, suede shoes, manchester.
I am sorry, maybe my nose and brain does not want to link all impressions in way as intended.

Hello! Looking forward to a more raw and conscious lifestyle!
About us…
Help support your Meetup
What is supportive of a healthy body, mind, heart, spirit, relationship, family, community and society. Here you will find support for and learn what is life-giving in every aspect of our lives, culture and society. Not just nutritionally for example, but emotionally, spiritually, in our relationships, at work, in our physical activity, in our thoughts, in how we relate to one another, etc
No dogmas, just learning what supports our bodies, our life and our world.
Gatherings, classes, workshops and community
More details coming:
This is a project of One World Healing community and the result of lifelong developments of remedies to the programmed (brainwashed/conditioning) we receive in a gaia-cidal culture (lending to decay and destruction, devolution of humans and to one's physical, emotional, mental and soul health). We have found that remedies do not happen piecemeal, but only in an encompassing supportive structure of all of who we are as humans. We cannot be whole only addressing the health of our bodies. Neither can we become whole merely freeing our minds. The same can be said of our spirit, for we exist in physical form as well. Nor can we merely be concerned with the self, for as a quantum universe, everything we do has an effect on everyone and everything else.
We will plan to have teach-ins, classes, workshops and a live in community learning and being. The residential 6 month (or 12 month optional) internship will begin in a few months. Those interested please inquire. There are very few spaces left (4) . There will be rent and a monthly tuition (the lowest tuition will be the first term upcoming for the prototype). The teaching and living group experience will be 30-40 hours a week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live-in Internship: In this environment we will detox an decondition from this toxic culture and in a holistic framework organically change our lives through shared practices, teachings, relating, growing, supporting and living as family. How we relate to ourselves and to one another in the world is chief among what must change, but too, our thoughts, emotions, and even our energetic vibration. It is only possible to heal and change fundamentally in these living group arrangements for one, as humans can only live holistic lives in a social structure or group and secondly, to hold the field, thought, vibration, actions different from the normative stream takes a morhogenetic field conducive to do so (ie a group that can support that different thought or behavior from the norm in one's culture). Included in these teachings are the truths hidden from information controlled societies, such as truth in nutrition and historical truth (present day and past). We will learn and practice countless skills (social, emotional, practical, holistic) from vast knowledge. More importantly, we will come to know one's own soul, spirit and purpose. In the internship , we will be learning how to live holistically supporting body, mind, spirit and relationship by doing so with others in a living environment. Connecting deeply with the self through guided activities. Connecting deeply with other living group members. We make changes emotionally, physically, behaviorally, spiritually. Learn to love yourself and others in healthy ways as opposed to culturally trained unhealthy "love". Being healthy in relationship. Becoming aware of unhealthy programming and having a system for changing in real life in real time with real people. There is no religion or rigid dogma to adopt. We will be working with the personality, the patterns, and the transpersonal, particularly where it relates to your soul's journey and the nature of your relationship to everything and everyone else. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For those Joining our meetup: Holistic Culture Design and Personal Evolution Community, Please have your "receive email from group" turned on in order to receive event and other information. Also suggested is to send your email to the group leader to receive mailings directly as meetup is a highly unreliable source to receive mail from..

License Auctions with Royalty Contracts for (Winners and) Losers
This paper revisits the licensing of a non–drastic process innovation by an outside innovator to a Cournot oligopoly. We propose a new mechanism that combines a restrictive license auction with royalty licensing. This mechanism is more profitable than standard license auctions, auctioning royalty contracts, fixed–fee licensing, pure royalty licensing, and two-part tariffs. The key features are that royalty contracts are auctioned and that losers of the auction are granted the option to sign a royalty contract. Remarkably, combining royalties for winners and losers makes the integer constraint concerning the number of licenses irrelevant.

Great product Ahmed from Bridgewater, NJ on 08/16/2014 – Verified Buyer
This is a great ball for any intensity level work out. Very well built but after a while seems to busts and leak sand. However, Wayfair is just an awesome company at shipping and replacing the product if need be.

Very nice slam ball Jeremy from Colville, WA on 04/07/2013 – Verified Buyer
This slam ball seems to be just fine for the few (so far) slams that I have used it for. This product is less than half the price of D-Balls, and quality seems fine to me. I will say, however, that the outer plastic shell on this 50-lb. ball seems much more pliable than the outer shell of the 40-lb. ball from the same company, and deforms MUCH more easily - probably doesn't make too much difference in it's usability, but I'm not sure why this is...

Great work out Kerry from Dayton, OH on 06/25/2015 – Verified Buyer
This ball provides me with a great work out. Fine quality.

Perfect! Jen Jacobs from Washington, DC on 10/18/2012 – Verified Buyer
The price was right ($89 + 10% off), and I love the free shipping. Perfect for shouldering and doing heavy shoulder carries. It arrived 8 days after order was made, which is great since Perform Better Jam Balls have been back ordered since late August.

FARMINGTON, Conn., Nov. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- The rapidly growing global market for eLearning will be driven by increasing user adoption across corporate as well as the academic sectors, according to new market research from leading publisher Global Industry Analysts (GIA). Even as the global economy continues to struggle in the face of uncertainties, the eLearning market has demonstrated resilience due to the fact that weaker economic conditions generally lead job seekers to opt for re-training in order to enhance their employment prospects.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121119/CG16234)
In the global education industry, home tutoring is also emerging as a major trend in the private tutoring sector. While the U.S. represents the largest market eLearning, the Asia Pacific region dominates the private tutoring services sphere.
Global Information Inc. (GII) recommends three excellent market research reports covering the global markets for eLearning, distance learning, and private tutoring from our premium research partner Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
The global market for eLearning is projected to reach $168.8 billion by 2018. The eLearning market is one of the most rapidly growing sectors in the global education industry. eLearning initiatives hold an edge over conventional learning modes due to their ability to reduce overall training costs based on overall program and factors such as offshoring, deployment of forms and range of content as well as Learning Management Systems (LMS). eLearning also offers additional qualitative benefits, unlike conventional methods, in the form of anytime, anywhere learning, access to worldwide mentoring resources for maximum skill development, and administration as well as control of training calendar from several locations.
Globalization and the increasing need to remain competitive are driving companies to change operational strategies and modify training approaches offered to the employees. Tech-savvy companies are fuelling the demand for technology-led learning initiatives. Young employees, in particular, are active adopters of eLearning and blended learning programs. The scenario is favored by the rise in demand for social learning and Web 2.0 technologies, coupled with the significant rise in social tools.
Major players profiled in the report include Adobe Systems Inc., Apollo Group Inc., Articulate Global Inc., Assima PLC, Blackboard Inc., Cegos Group SA, CognitiveArts, Corpedia Inc., Desire2Learn Incorporated, iLinc Communications Inc., Inspired eLearning Inc., IBM, Kenexa Inc., Kineo Limited, Lumesse Corporate Ltd., Microsoft Learning, MiracleMind.com, NetDimensions Ltd., NorthgateArinso Limited, Oracle Corp., Saba Software Inc., SkillSoft, SuccessFactors Inc., SumTotal Systems Inc., and The McGraw-Hill Companies, among others.
An Executive Summary for this report and free sample pages from the full document are available at http://www.giiresearch.com/report/go136218-e-learning.html
Distance Learning
The global outlook series on Distance Learning provides statistical anecdotes, market briefs, and concise summaries of research findings. The report offers an aerial view of the global distance learning industry, identifies major short to medium term market challenges, and growth drivers. Regional markets elaborated upon include the United States, France, Germany, The UK, Japan, China, and India among others. Market discussions in the report are punctuated with 23 fact-rich market data tables. Also included is an indexed, easy-to-refer, fact-finder directory listing the addresses, and contact details of 226 companies worldwide.
An Executive Summary for this report and free sample pages from the full document are available at http://www.giiresearch.com/report/go232238-distance-learning.html
Private Tutoring
Private tutoring is a key constituent of the global education industry, with growth primarily attributed to the inability of the standard education system to address the unique needs of each student. The global market for Private Tutoring is projected to reach $102.8 billion by 2018. Asia-Pacific is a thriving regional market for private tutoring services with demand booming from East Asian countries such as China, South Korea, Singapore and Hong Kong. This is because in most East Asian countries, it is essential to crack competitive entrances for gaining admission into professional courses at the graduate and post-graduate levels.
Major players profiled in the report include A+ Tutoring, Building Educated Leaders For Life, Club Z! Tutoring Services, Daekyo Co. Ltd., Educomp Solutions Ltd., Fleet Tutors, Huntington Learning Centers Inc., JEI Learning Centers, Kaplan Inc., Kids 'R' Kids International Inc., Kumon, Learn It Systems, LearningRx, Mathnasium LLC, Megastudy Co. Ltd., Rocket Learning Inc., Supreme Evaluations Inc., Sylvan Learning Inc., The Princeton Review Inc., Tutor Doctor, Tutor.com Inc., Tutoring Club Inc., TutorVista Global Pvt., Ltd., and Woongjin Thinkbig Co., Ltd.

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

Although depression is prevalent in long-term breast cancer survivors (LTBCS; ≥5 years since diagnosis), it is underdiagnosed and undertreated. A better understanding of factors associated with depression could improve depression screening, treatment, and prevention in this population. Our study aimed to assess the link between patient and doctor ratings of breast cosmetic outcomes, late radiotherapy toxicity, and depression in LTBCS.
In all, 214 patients recruited from the ARCOSEIN study were assessed for late radiotherapy toxicity (by using the LENT-SOMA scale) and patient and doctor ratings of breast cosmetic outcomes (mean = 6.7 years since the end of treatment). We reassessed 120 of these patients for depression (HAD) during a second wave of long-term assessment (mean = 8.1 years since the end of treatment). We used univariate analyses and polytomous logistic regression analyses to predict the HAD depression, which was defined as follows: normal, 0–7 points; and significant depression, ≥8 points (8–10 points, possible depression; ≥11 points, probable depression).
The mean HAD depression score was 4.5 ± 3.6. 19. 2% of our population had significant depression, 6.7% with probable depression, and 12.5% with possible depression. Significant depression was not associated with late radiotherapy toxicity or initial cancer-related variables. Patients with probable depression reported worse cosmetic outcomes than nondepressed patients in terms of perceived breast largeness (p = 0.04), breast deformation (p = 0.02), and changes in skin pigmentation (p = 0.03).
In LTBCS, depression seems to be more strongly associated with changes in some patients' perceived breast cosmetic outcome than late treatment toxicity or initial cancer-related variables. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Thom Filicia's Organic Hemp collection for Safavieh is an extension of the celebrity designer's exploration of eco-friendly carpet fibers and weaves. To create the casual look of coarse wool that Thom envisioned, Safavieh specially prepares 100 percent natural hemp in several stages. Each strand of hemp yarn is combed, brushed and combed again until we achieve ultra-soft yarns which are then softened and colored with pure vegetable dyes. The look is global and ethnic with a sophisticated, natural aesthetic.

Darker than the photos K from Oregon on 06/18/2013 – Verified Buyer
In the photos, this rug looks like a faded indigo color, which is what we wanted for our room. Beware that in actuality, it is a dark navy blue, almost black. It's still a nice rug, but it's not really the 'happy blue' we were looking for. Also, the online product description says it's made of natural fibers - I don't think I'd call recycled plastic a natural fiber, but hey, at least they're recycling plastic.

Cute design but not comfortable LD from NJ on 01/14/2015
The rug seemed to be made almost of plastic yarn. It was fine for my purposes, since my cat's claws couldn't ruin it. I used rug tape to make sure it wouldn't slip. Not comfortable to sit on if you're sitting on the floor.

The street department has been using the iWorQ program since 2001 and we have never looked back. We use it to manage everything from our street signs to pavement management. They have assisted us greatly in going from an out of date pavement distress system to the industry standard of Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP). They assisted us in starting a preventive maintenance program (Chipseal, Slurryseal, Capeseal) in 2004 and by 2006 our budget had tripled because of the results that this program is producing. As the Pavement System Manager for the City and County I use iWorQ every day. The ability to query the data base is a powerful tool and I have only scratched the surface. The Street Operations Superintendent is required to submit a street evaluation report to Council yearly. Before iWorQ, this report used to take a week to prepare but now it takes a couple of hours to complete and submit. I would personally recommend iWorQ to anyone.

Upcoming Events
Volunteer Event, FALL FOR GREENVILLE – October 9-11
We are asking you to partner with us this year by volunteering at Fall For Greenville. The city has asked that Red Shoe Society place volunteers in the Beer Garden again this year. There are other positions available as well. Sign-ups are already live, so please consider taking a shift or two (or three). Bring a friend or family member, anyone over 10 years old can volunteer (21 and over in the Beer Garden).
Lastly, if you need some incentive to get out there, we are giving away a SOUTHWEST AIRLINES ROUND TRIP TICKET to anywhere in the continental US. Every single person that signs up for (and shows up for, of course) a shift will be entered to win. Sign up for two shifts? You're entered twice. Three shifts = three entries… you get the idea. Red Shoe is hosting a volunteer party after the event to announce the winner.
Hang out at Fall for Greenville, listen to music, learn about craft beer, play bartender, get a free t-shirt, go to a party, get a free plane ticket, raise money for the families that need the Ronald McDonald House. The link below has more information on how to sign-up. Don't forget to select Red Shoe Society as your charity: http://www.fallforgreenville.net/volunteer.php

I just wanted something super simple for my logo. I've wanted the hexagon thing for a while and it really stood out to me.
