Facts of Life star Lisa Whelchel 'secretly ends marriage after 23 years'
Facts of Life star-turned-minister Lisa Whelchel has ended her marriage after 23 years, it has been claimed.
The actress, 49, who is about to star in the upcoming season of Survivor: Philippines, has three children with pastor Steve Cauble, 62.
Lisa waited until their youngest child, 19, went away to college before quietly filing for divorce in Denton County, Texas, in December 2011, according to the National Enquirer.
Single: Facts of Life star-turned-minister Lisa Whelchel, pictured at a CBS party in Hollywood earlier this week, has allegedly split from her husband
Cauble, who is 13 years Lisa's senior, didn't contest it.
Only a few family members and close friends even know about the split, but the couple has been living separate lives for months now, with Cauble buying a new bachelor pad in North Texas, according to the report.
The sitcom star was 25 and a born-again Christian when she wed Cauble in 1988.
Happier days: Lisa with husband Steve Cauble and their children, Tucker, Haven and Clancy in March 2004
The Facts of Life had just ended and, as she claimed in her 2001 autobiography, she was encouraged by her father to marry Steve, who was one of the pastors at her church.
She did marry him and they lived in Sherman Oaks, CA for many years before moving to Lantana, Texas in 2006.
Lisa can now be seen on the 25th season of Survivor.
On Survivor: Phillippines, which starts airing Wednesday night on CBS, Lisa is a member of the Tandang tribe.
Lisa must compete against 17 other castaways while stranded in an isolated area in the Camamoan Islands, in humid, uncomfortable conditions.
Tribe member: The star will return to TV screen Wednesday night on Survivor: Philippines
This was a challenge for Lisa, who has authored several Christian-themed books and runs the women's support group Momtime Ministries which she founded in 2000.
Then again, Lisa had to face the hard facts of reality as a teen growing up in front of the camera.
Behind the scenes on The Facts of Life, TV bosses pressured her to shed excess pounds and sent her to a weight loss center, 'three of them,' she says.
None of them worked and producers finally decided to let the girls just be the size nature intended them to be.
Sitcom star: The Facts of Life made Lisa a household name in the 1980s.
'I'm so grateful that it turned out the way it did,' Whelchel said. 'I looked like a normal teenage girl. We looked like normal teenage girls. You didn't have to be a size two.'
The years have been kind to Lisa.
Appearing at the CBS's Survivor fall premiere party in West Hollywood Tuesday night, Lisa looked glowing and youthful in a belted black dress and cowboy boots.

1 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, 2012 Learning Strategies and Styles in Vocational Education Péter Tóth Trefort Ágoston Centre for Engineering Education, Óbuda University Népszínház u. 8, H-1081 Budapest, Hungary Abstract: Vocational education in Hungary has seen significant changes over the past 20 years. However, the adaptivity of the system is largely aggravated by certain problems of content, compensation and selection. As a result, the success of Hungarian public education, as shown by PISA research, lags far behind its possibilities. In our present paper the adaptive model of vocational education is outlined first, where teaching and learning strategies appear as regulating agents with a formative influence on the educational process. The preferred patterns of learning and teaching strategies typical of the individual yield the learning and teaching styles. In the second part of the paper, the results of a longitudinal examination performed among secondary vocational school students in Budapest are presented. The answers to the following questions are sought: how much learning strategy and style can be regarded as an individual characteristic, how it changes with the progress of studies, and whether it shows any correlation with the gender or specialization of the students. Keywords: learning theory; learning model; learning strategy; Kolb s learning style 1 Introduction As shown by the findings of PISA examinations, the success of public education in Hungary lags far behind its possibilities. [1] [2] The reasons for this may best be summarized by the adaptivity weaknesses of the education system and the vocational educational subsystem within that. As an answer by education policy to the significant sociological and economic transformations over the past 20 years, fundamental changes have taken place in the structure (continuous specialization: vocational orientation according to specialization, professional team basic courses, acquisition of labour-market professions), content (curriculum frameworks in professional basic subjects, competence based and modular training programmes in vocational education) as well as output requirements (complex, two-level graduation examination in professional basic subjects, professional and examination requirements) of education. However, problems arising from a 195
2 P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education selective school system have not yet been solved. Students of abilities different from former ones have appeared in vocational education due to the expansion of higher education. Vocational training has not fully been able to keep pace with these changes. The adaptivity of the system of vocational education and the regulation of the educational process is largely made difficult by primary school achievement based further education (problem of selection), the application of methods less suitable to students abilities (problem of compensation), and a decrease in the number of professional practices (problem of content). On account of these problems, the school is less able to balance the advantages and disadvantages originating in the differences of family background, which is reflected by students achievements, too. The conclusion to be drawn from PISA examinations is that the individual success of students is determined mostly by the social status of the family and the school, the frequency and quality of feedback on learning achievement, the amount of time allotted to and needed for learning, the relationship between teaching and learning strategies as well as the standards of self-regulated learning and motivation. These differences in achievement are already reflected by secondary school enrolment with students graded good continuing their studies at grammar schools mainly (the best ones at 8-year grammar schools), those graded fair at vocational schools, whereas those with a poor achievement and often of a disadvantage, suffering from difficulties in learning, behavior and integration, almost exclusively at vocational training schools (trade schools). This fact foreshadows the danger of differences in achievement at the primary school being deepened by secondary education. After that, it is not at all surprising that almost 20% of secondary vocational school students and more than 50% of vocational training school (trade school) students do not meet the standard requirements of competence necessary to adapt to a modern society. To phase out this problem of selection is primarily the task of education policy. Difference between school types ought to be reduced on the basis of the principle of equal opportunities and equity, whereas that within the classroom increased in the field of learning achievement. This achievement is to be interpreted as an added value where factors not influenced by the school are also taken into consideration (e.g. family background, region of schooling). The situation arising from the problem of selection may somewhat be helped by an incentive school microenvironment and innovative pedagogical activity, but teacher-centeredness still chararacterizes vocational education in Hungary. To solve this problem of compensation, a student-centered methodology that makes knowledge construction possible ought to take over methodology limited to imparting information. Child-centeredness, a better understanding of students, individual treatment and development, the need for compensation and differentiation focuses attention increasingly on the regulating agent of the educational process, where a diagnostic aspect and its necessary teaching and 196
3 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, 2012 learning strategies appear in an emphatic form. From this a need for the contents renewal of technical teacher training naturally follows, taking the specialities of vocational education more into consideration. A fall in the number of practices causes serious concern mostly in vocational school training. The approximation of training content to that of comprehensive schools resulted in three problems. Firstly, the professional knowledge of certified skilled workers failed to meet the standards of the labour-market (competence deficit), secondly the over-theoretical contents and the needs for developed cognitive abilities of the training contrasted the more developed psychomotoric skills of the students (need vs skill), and thirdly, as a result of these, students career orientation, attitude and professional value preferences changed (motivation deficit). The latter also manifests itself in only about 30% of qualified skilled workers finding work in their area after leaving school. 2 The Objective of the Research In comparing students, their differences are in practice explored. Teaching is to be considered effective only if the teacher selects their methods, forms and means (teaching strategies) by taking the different characteristics of students into consideration, too. Adaptive teaching focuses on either the correction of students lack of knowledge (corrective teaching) or on strategy selection with regard to students strengths (compensating teaching). Whether it be correction or compensation, it is important for us to know those variables, as conditions (existing knowledge, abilities, competences, attitudes, learning strategies and styles, motivation, environmental variables) that have most influence on the efficiency of both learning and teaching. Three types of learning are to be distinguished with respect to objectives. The objective of externally directed learning is firstly the acquisition of the cognitive forms of knowledge, secondly the development of abilities by it, and thirdly the formation of attitudes. The objective of learning targeted at acquiring efficient forms of information acquisition is the preparation of students for independent learning. The third level is self-regulated or meta-learning, when the student recognizes how to learn successfully depending on the character of the curriculum and on subject requirements and to achieve this he is able to select the appropriate forms, means and methods of information acquisition. On the basis of all this, the responsibility of teachers is to thoroughly get to know their students learning characteristics in order to be able to develop their cognitive and motivational self-regulation. In accordance with that the Hungarian National Curriculum mentions the development of efficient independent learning among essential key competences on the one hand and, on the other, treats the question of teaching how to learn among the high priority tasks of development. 197
4 P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education The fundamental condition for efficient and independent learning is for the individual to recognize and understand his own learning strategies as well as the strengths and weaknesses of his abilities and expertise, whereas the role of the teacher is to give directions in connection with the acquisition and structure of as well as access to the syllabus, to have the effective methods and techniques of learning acquired by the student, and to become familiar with the particular learning methods, strategies, styles and habits of the students. [3] The idea of a research series was delineated based on the above to focus on the reasons of success or failure in learning and to contribute thereby to the content and methodological development of technical teacher training. Instead of a hypothesis test often applied in pedagogical research, research questions were prepared. The effect of variables in the research on success or failure is manifold. The simultaneously inquisitive character of both the longitudinal (the students taking part in the examination in a phasing-out system) and cross-sectional (each year in a particular year examined) examination models, focussing explicitly on vocational school students, would have limited research targeted at the acceptance or refusal of hypotheses. Therefore we arrived at several recognitions which transcend the boundaries of hypothesis justification and may be decisive from the point of view of our research topic. Through the abilities and experience of the individual, characteristics and preferences are formed which will have an influence firstly on learning, secondly on problem-solving, thirdly on professional development and even on career choice. The most important question to be answered by the representative longitudinal research focussing on secondary vocational school students in Budapest is whether learning style may be interpreted as a characteristically individual speciality, which, as a part of the personality, mostly expresses a relation to the acquisition and application of information, which in a word is learning. 3 The Theoretical Background to the Research 3.1 Learning Theories, Learning Models In comparing learning theory and learning model (teaching theory, teaching model), learning is to be interpreted in the former as a behavioral, cognitive, social, etc. change resulting from a particular situation, while in the latter as a process made optimal by taking external conditions into consideration. Whereas learning theories are primarily micro-level (describing the results of short term and elementary activities), are based on organized hypotheses and deal with 198
5 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, 2012 learning in general, learning models are macro-level (describing the results of long-term activities) and focus in concrete terms on a practical aspect, for example on the characteristics of classroom learning. The various psychological directions hold different views on learning, or rather, they emphasize or appreciate different essentials of it. These theories have undergone significant development during the past decades and still coexist. Should any of the paradigms be considered, it is true of each that learning is treated in general and interpreted as a relatively lasting change in behaviour, and its result is achieved through practice. This change may manifest itself among other things in the individual s theoretical knowledge, competences, abilities, behaviour and attitudes. So learning is interpreted as a change in associations between images by the representatives of associationist psychology, in behaviour by those of behaviorism, in mental processes by those of cognitivism, in personality development by those of psychoanalysis, and in incentives of the personality by those of phenomenology. [4] [5] [6] Therefore learning has an outcome and this is change itself. The most relevant category of the research is the adaptive educational model and the one named after Carroll and Bloom is to be highlighted. [7] [9] According to Carroll, learning achievement depends on existing knowledge, general learning abilities (the ability of self-regulated learning), the degree of comprehension (general intelligence, verbal skills), several environmental factors (e.g. family, friends), the quality of instruction (the selection of appropriate methods and means, how organized the curriculum is) as well as affective and cognitive dispositions (e.g. interest, motivation, level of standards, self-image). Learning achievement is best shown by the pace (speed) and quality (failure rate) of learning and the durability of knowledge (recallability, mobilizability). The efficiency of learning is to be expressed by a ratio where time allotted to learning is divided by time needed for acquisition. The former comprises the syllabusbased classroom time planned by the teacher and the home learning time of the student, while the latter comprises the quality of instruction and the time need determined by the talents of the student. [7] In the late 1990s, Huitt developed Carroll s model. In his transactional model, time allotted to learning is dependent on the time of acquiring the material as measured during checking as well as of active participation in the learning process, together with the time spent on the successful completion of allotted tasks. [8] According to Bloom s model learning achievement is substantially influenced by four factors, namely the existing knowledge of the student, their level of motivation, the duration of the teaching-learning process and the quality of instruction. Time need as a factor appears here, too, originating primarily in the existing knowledge and learning differences of the individual. That is why the other three factors are to be selected in such a way as to ensure the safe acquisition 199
6 P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education of the material in each and every student s case; in other words, time allotted to learning should at least coincide with that needed for acquisition. [9] Bloom and Carroll s teaching-learning models led the way to the model of mastery learning. [10] After the objectives of learning were carefully determined, syllabus content was broken up into small units and continuous feedback given on the level of acquisition, which made the necessary correction possible, thus ensuring even more time for each student to acquire the material with mastery. The significance of model formation lies in helping to take into account the components of education as well as their interrelations. A process-based attitude contributes to the exploration of variables which determine the operation of the system. In view of these variables regulation may make the process optimal. Based on the above, the conditions of model formation are to be determined. - Competence clarification - Determination of micro- and macro-environmental relations - Consideration of all components of the complex system and their interrelations (holistic approach) - Review of all variables from the system s point of view - Consideration of the suitability components of regulation, thus the examination of the efficient and successful operation of the system, and an attempt at the optimal operation of the system (adaptivity) As the suitability indexes of regulation, the following were introduced: - sensitivity at what difference between variable output value and expected value intervention occurs - time of intervention how long the real time need is The precondition of adaptive education is for the system to be as sensitive as possible and the time of intervention as short as possible. The following forms of adaptive education are to be highlighted: - correction if the student s abilities (existing knowledge, particular skills) are not sufficient for syllabus acquisition they need correction - compensation if educational methods, forms and tools are selected by taking the student s strengths in syllabus acquisition into consideration The classified learning process (Fig. 1) and so learning achievement is determined by the following ( conditions ): - student characteristics (e.g. existing knowledge, abilities, motives, attitudes, learning style) - teacher characteristics (e.g. competences, attitudes, teaching style) [25] 200
7 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, curricular educational objectives and requirements - time needed for acquisition and time allotted to learning - the student s micro- (e.g. school atmosphere, family background) and macro-environment (e.g. settlement, regional specialities, education policy) Figure 1 The adaptive model for the educational process Depending on learning achievement there are three feedback, regulating agents within the system, one on the teaching process (formative effect through change in teaching and learning strategies), one on the student (the possibility of the development of a self-regulated strategy) and one on the teacher (teacher competences develop). 3.2 Learning Strategies and Learning Styles The decisively significant corrective elements of the model in Fig. 1 are the quality of teaching and learning strategies (suitability to objective and syllabus), time to be allotted to learning (in class and at home) and the abilities related to the comprehension of the syllabus. The highest level of learning strategies is the selfregulated learning strategy, when the student, surmounting his own cognitive and affective characteristics, processes the material by choosing the learning methods and means most suited to the requirements. The teacher s direct guidance in this cannot apparently be dispensed with in the beginning. 201
8 P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education Teaching, learning and self-regulated (meta-learning) strategies are inseparable and parallel variables of the educational process. Their significance, dominance and mutual effect depend on the educational objectives, the content specialities of the syllabus, the didactic tasks to be solved as well as the age group characteristics of the students (Fig. 2). Figure 2 The interpretation of teaching and learning strategy The dominance of teaching strategies is typical of teacher-centered, that of learning strategies is of student-centered situations of education, respectively, while the self-regulated strategy is typical of independent learning. In the case of teaching-learning strategies the selection of the combination of method form means is primarily the teacher s task, and in the case of self-regulated learning the student is capable of it. The teacher obviously makes the selection of the teaching and learning methods, means and forms most suited to processing the syllabus in a way that contributes to the development of the student s self-regulated learning strategy as well. A common feature of theories of learning style is that students are classified according to their cognitive characteristics and learning strategies along one- or multi-dimensional bipolar (usually cognitive) scales. Conclusions as to the efficient learning styles, forms and means of the student may be drawn from the preferred strategies related to learning style. Teaching strategies which produce the most preferred learning strategies can also be specified, and these in turn serve as a starting point for designing the learning environment. 202
9 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, 2012 The common feature of several theories is that only certain cognitive and sometimes affective individual characteristics are integrated into their system, which, however, reduces to a great extent the scope of validity of the given approach. From this, it also obviously follows that neither theory is capable of typifying all the learning characteristics of the individual in the proper way and in proper detail. The existing theories can be classified into five categories, according to which learning style - is biologically determined, including for instance sense modalities and cerebral hemisphere lateralization (Dunn Dunn, Gregorc), - reflects the characteristics of cognitive structures, including for instance certain patterns of abilities, too (Riding, Gardner), - is an element of a relatively stable personality type (Jackson, Myers- Briggs), - expresses the flexibly stable learning preferences of the individual (Honey Mumford, Kolb, Kolb Kolb, McCarthy), - should be ignored and interest focussed on learning approaches, strategies, orientations and conceptions of learning instead (Entwistle, Sternberg, Vermunt). [11] From the point of view of our research, the theory examining the learning preferences of the individual is to be highlighted. The most significant theory in this group is associated with the name of David Kolb, who has been studying learning style for more than 40 years. His Learning Style Inventory (LSI) is one of the most widespread measuring instruments in the examination of learning styles. His experimental theory of learning amalgamated the relevant and decisive movements of the 20 th Century (John Dewey, Kurt Lewin, Jean Piaget, William James, Carl Jung, Paulo Freire, Carl Rogers, etc.) [12] His theory rests on six principles: - Learning is interpreted as a relationship between the individual and the environment. - Learning is interpreted as the holistic process of adaptation to the environment. - Learning is to be regarded rather as a regulated process than an outcome condition. - The student s existing knowledge and experience play a decisive role in processing new information. - Piaget s adaptive theory is regarded as the basis of learning. Adaptation has two forms, namely assimilation and accommodation. - Learning is a process of constructing knowledge, the result of which presents itself as a relationship between community knowledge and individual knowledge. 203
10 P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education According to his theory, learning is a cyclical process where the stages of gaining concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization and active experimentation can be well distinguished. Transition through these stages of information acquisition demands various abilities, attitudes and behavior from students, who vary in these fields. Kolb s LSI is able to show the dominance of these characteristics. In his two-dimensional polynomial system he distinguished learning styles according to the preferences of information acquisition (grasping concrete experience abstract conceptualization; feeling thought) and processing (reflective observation, comprehension active experimentation, the application of acquired skills in new situations; observation action). On the basis of preferences along axes he differentiated four kinds of learning style: Converger, Diverger, Assimilator and Accommodator. [12] [13] [14] [15] At the end of the 1980s, Hunt and his colleagues extended the four-region model to a nine-region one by distinguishing four, so-called transitory (Northerner, Easterner, Southerner and Westerner) learning styles. [16] [17] Later on Kolb and his colleagues determined the balancing style of learning. Students of this type show a considerable degree of balance along both dimensions. [18] Harb and his colleagues attached an appropriate teaching style to each of Kolb s learning styles. In their opinion a diverging student needs a motivating teacher role, an assimilating one needs an expert, a converging one needs a trainer, while the accommodating one most of all needs a role which gives continuous feedback. [19] Kolb s LSI served as a basis for the development of the measuring instruments of several further learning styles. Among them McCarthy s so-called 4MAT system may be distinguished ( teaching around the learning cycle ). The main objective was to create teaching situations, taking students characteristics into consideration, which ensure the differentiated development of the individual. His theory combined Kolb s four learning styles with the cerebral hemisphere lateralization model. The stages of his learning process are the following: connecting to existing experience, observation, imagination, information transfer, practice, extension, refining, and performance. [20] [11] Honey and Mumford developed their own theory also based on Kolb s model. [21] Experiential learning is regarded as a spiral cycle, with emphasis on continual development. The process starts with the stage of gaining experience, then continues with the stages of reflecting on the experience, critical analysis and generalisation, and planning the application of the newly acquired competence. At this point the cycle starts again but at a higher level. Students usually have a preferred stage, to which a respective learning style is linked: activist, reflector, theorist or pragmatist. Students with strengths at all four stages are seen as versatile or integrated. 204
11 Acta Polytechnica Hungarica Vol. 9, No. 3, 2012 The question of sense modalities is echoed in several theories. They stand in the centre of the Dunn and Dunn theory for instance with the other variables, the circumstances of learning and the relation to them, being organized around it. [22] Stimuli are assessed by the human sense organs from four aspects: modality, intensity, location and duration. Based on sense modalities, Fleming distinguished learning styles, first the dimensions of visual auditory kinesthetic/tactile (VAK), then those of visual auditory read/write kinesthetic/tactile (VARK). A visual student will primarily rely on images, the auditive one prefers learning through hearing, the verbal one will like to read the learning material and prefers written tasks, while the kinesthetic student will prefer movement, touching and action. [23] 4 The Methods and Means of Research In the course of the vocational-pedagogical research the adapted version for students at secondary vocational schools of Kolb s Learning Style Inventory was used. In the questionnaire, students at each entry chose the one of four independent statements most as well as least typical of them, then they had to order the four statements into a hierarchy. Our phasing-out system longitudinal examination was performed between 2007 and 2010, on paper in the first year and in an online form in the following three years (contribution by Attila Viola, teacher of engineering). The examination was performed with the participation of the Mérei Ferenc Institute of Education and Career Counselling (contribution by Judit Béky, consultant) at the request of the Department of Education, Children and Youth Protection, the Municipality of Budapest. In the September of each academic year a preparatory class was organized for the teachers participating in the examination. They were also provided with a detailed printed measurement guideline. In addition, teacher identifiers were distributed by the help of which the measuring instruments could be given a preliminary try. Measurement was carried out in the IT lab of the participating schools under the guidance of the teachers prepared. After the completion of the questionnaire students immediately received an assessment and an interpretation of the results, which largely contributed to the development of their own self-evaluation and the formation of their self-image. Another feedback agent is the form-master, or the teachers working in the class who, on the basis of the results of the class, could acquire useful information in order to achieve their educational and teaching objectives with more efficiency. Therefore an online surface was created, where teachers could check their own class s results as well as their assessment and interpretation directly after the 205
12 Crosssectional examination model P. Tóth Learning Strategies and Styles, Adaptive Vocational Education measurement. This could largely contribute to the selection of the appropriate teaching strategies. The students of 41 vocational schools in Budapest took part in the examination. 1,477 students from year 9, 1,206 from year 10, 1,242 from year 11 and 989 from year 12 participated in the examination considered representative as for the geographical position of the school and the gender and specialization of the students. Table 1 Examination models Starting secondary vocational school Autumn 2007 Longitudinal examination model Date of examination Autumn 2008 Autumn 2009 Autumn 2010 September 2007 Year 9 Year 10 Year 11 Year 12 September Year 9 Year 10 Year 11 September Year 9 Year 10 September Year 9 Longitudinal research performed in the October and November of four academic years made the application of two examinations models (longitudinal, crosssectional) possible (Table 1). 5 Results 5.1 Learning Strategies In Kolb s model, the students most preferred strategies are the acquisition of concrete experience and the active, practical application of acquired information. With respect to the type of information and its way of acquisition, besides an increasing deviation, a certain kind of stability (Fig. 3), while regarding the processing of information, besides a minimal change in deviation, a significant change of preference is to be observed (Fig. 4). With the progress of studies, the role in the learning process of practical application continuously increases, whereas that of observation, comprehension, though to a lesser degree, decreases. In this change the increasingly emphatic presence of technical basic subjects and chiefly of practical subjects has an apparent role to play, which demands a change in strategy of a particular circle of students.

+Why choose anyone but the best?
Hi, I'm Jennie!
I am repeatedly told, "you have it!" I am the only choice for the gentleman who demands nothing but the finest things in life; "Fun, witty, naughty, gorgeous, playful and very much a woman."
I have an uncontrollable mischievousness that will take you from 0 to 100 in 2.3 seconds. I'm the little girl with eyes bigger than her tummy, yet a woman whose demure, feminine presence will energize you. "she is a girl that makes you forget that there is a world around us as we talk, she is a lady that makes me feel like a hot lover in the bedroom…"
Allow me to refresh you with tactfully unmitigated honesty in a society of stifling political corectness. "She was able to draw out parts of myself that I haven't felt or expressed in a long time…" I will give you the best of both worlds: the rare maturity beyond my years and a lively demeanor that allows you to recapture the carefree spirit. You deserve the opportunity to put down professional stress as we explore forbidden fruits.
"If I could I would keep her to myself but she's too awesome to not share with others." Take me as your kitten, sensually playful, or lioness, assuming control and giving you what you want and need.

Customer Reviews
Used to be great...
This update ruined what was a great spelling app. My son used it for his spelling list from school every week. Now, it's unusable. No more pictures, if you want to add a picture it takes forever for it to load. It would take me an hour to add pictures for one list. I'm moving on. Sometimes, just leave well enough alone
First day awesome. Day two, what the... my custom list in the games even though spelling the word correctly says it's wrong. Cross word puzzle does one word than just stays with that one word highlighted but doesn't move on. Has a lot of potential though.
Great games and spelling lists!
Love this app. What a time saver! Kids love it too which is great.
UPDATE: The latest update has made a great app even better.

Or even removing him all together!
I would certainly go to a baseball game. Some days ENFJ man and I pack a picnic and drive out to Grand Haven on Lake Michigan, even in the winter. I like to go to movies by myself or try new places to eat or just check out interesting things I might come across.
I like to rock n' roll all night and *part* of every day. I usually have errands... I can only rock from like 1-3.
Most days off I just decompress and chill. Other days I'll go exploring and just walk around the city, take in the sights. Try and hang out with friends.
Just chill mostly though.

try to do at least one or two of the tasks that have accumulated during the rest of the working week, especially those connected to cross-stitching and linguistics/language construction. that, and write emails to friends whom i do not see too often (and whom i probably haven't updated on my whereabouts for the past several weeks or months). not that i always manage this.
and, of course, i would go out with a friend if they also happen to be free - this is something that never changes.

So THAT'S where he gets those chubby cheeks from: Picture of Kate as a baby reveal that Prince George is the spitting image of his mum
- George has inherited the Middleton button nose and chubby cheeks
- Also has William's eyes and ears
- George's christening was an intimate family affair, much like Kate's
- Wore ivory gown made of delicate Honiton lace and white satin, worn before him by every baby born to the British Royal family since 1841
When William first introduced Prince George to the world, he quipped that luckily their newborn had inherited his mother's looks, to which Kate replied 'I'm not sure about that'.
But judging by yesterday's snaps of His Royal Highness Prince
George Alexander Louis of Cambridge, who put on a perfect display of royal
etiquette on one the biggest day of his life so far, he really is the spitting image of his mother as baby.
As the former Kate Middleton carried her son out of the service, dressed in a handmade replica of Queen Victoria's daughter's christening robe, it was impossible to miss the resemblance between the pair.
Scroll down for video
Spot the difference: As the Duchess of Cambridge left her son's christening, it was impossible not to notice the similarities between the pair
Little George has inherited his mother's head shape, chubby little cheeks and the Middleton button nose.
And it isn't just his mother's looks that the youngster has acquired.
According to aides, there wasn't 'even a peep' out of the three-month-old future king as he was baptised by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev Justin Welby, at the Chapel Royal in St James's Palace.
'He went in smiling, came out smiling and, as far as we are aware, smiled throughout,' said one.
His good behaviour seemingly resonates that of his mother.
George Brown, a 68-year-old former neighbour of the Middleton family told the Mail on Sunday: 'Catherine was a good
baby. She was always very well turned-out and there weren't any
'She was very content. Carole and I would often take the girls for walks together and have a coffee, and there was never much crying.'
Uncanny: Prince George has inherited his mother's button nose and chubby cheeks and it is hard to tell the difference between his and his mother's 1982 (r) christening snap
So where did it all begin for Kate?
Catherine Elizabeth Middleton was born at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading, on January 9, 1982, the eldest of three children to British Airways stewardess Carole and her trainee pilot husband Michael Middleton, who had been married for two years.
christening of Catherine took place on June 20, 1982 — the day before
her future husband was born — at her local church, St Andrew's, in
Bradfield on the banks of the River Pang, Berkshire.
father Michael sported a traditional dark suit with striped tie for the
occasion and posed proudly with Kate and Carole, who wore a Laura Ashley floral dress for the down-to-earth family event.
William's baptism was very different to Kate's small village gathering.
He was baptised in the Music Room of Buckingham Palace on August 4 (the 82nd birthday of the Queen Mother) by the then Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert Runcie.
Little lookalike: Kate pictured on June 20 1982 at her local church, St Andrew's, with grandmother Dorothy Goldsmith (mother of Carole Middleton) and Prince William (r) at his baptism on August 8, 1982
Princess Diana, just 21 and wearing a fuchsia pink, blue and white floral dress with a pink hat set at a rakish angle, looked radiant. But she later confided to friends that it had been a trial.

From baby bump to motherhood, we can be self-conscious about our stretch marks. Whether you are a new mom with a newborn, weight gain or even weight loss, we want products that work. We want beautiful skin and stretch our dreams into a reality. We are quick to use the creams and the oils. I admit, I use coconut oil, argan oil or even jojoba oil to help fade my stretch marks.
I have used the Salcura brand of products before and they were wonderful on my skin. They helped by removing and minimizing the appearance of my psoriasis outbreaks. Now I am ready to tackle the stubborn stretch marks that are on my waist and under my arms.
I started using the Salcura Rose Hip & Green Bean Stretch Mark Cream on my waistline. It is best to use the cream after showering. I apply the cream on my problem areas. Then I use my favorite fragrance lotion on my body to help seal in moisture. I use the cream twice a day for the first four weeks. Following the four weeks, you only need to apply once a day.
The second stretch mark product is the Salcura Gotu Kola & Wild Rose Stretch Mark Oil on my arms. For the first two months, you are to use this oil twice a day on clean dry skin. After that, use only once a day. The Salcura Gotu Kola & Wild Rose Stretch Mark Oil absorbs quickly into my skin and does not leave my skin oily at all. This is great because I hate my skin being oily. I love the dropper, so I can control how much I want to use each time.
Since I started using both the Salcura Rose hip & Green Bean Stretch Mark Cream and Salcura Gotu Kola & Wild Rose Stretch Mark Oil daily, I am hoping to see my stretch marks fade away.
You can find Salcura on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 4dr Quad Cab SLT Rwd SB (4.7L 8cyl 6M)
This is my second of the current generation of Ram. The first was a 2002 Quad Cab with a 5.9 V8. Great truck. This one is even better with a Hemi and 5 speed auto transmission. Very reliable and fun to drive. I recently had to rent a 2006 Chevy Silverado and could not wait to get back into the Dodge. It out performed the Chevy in almost every way. I will buy another one for sure.
Confortable ride. Great looks. Fun to drive. Solid. Quality materials in and out.
Better gas mileage.
2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 SRT-10 4dr Quad Cab Rwd SB (8.3L 10cyl 4A)
Hands down this truck sets the curve.. personally I would like all that power and performance in a 4x4 .This is my first truck not a 4x4. and was aprehensive, but I am happy with the performance. I know however the day will come when it is stuck on the job site and I am looking for another powered axle. but until then, giddy up!
Absolute performance and power and I get to drive it to work.
Make the 6 speed tranny available in the quad cab? 4x4?
This truck is fun to drive. One can feel the power as soon as you start it. Not all cars give you the same feel. My wife has the Porsche Cayenne Turbo and it doesn't come close, it just doesn't feel lke a true 500hp car. With this Dodge baby you know what you have under the hood. The driving is great, although, the turns are a bit wider than most trucks. The only compaint I get from my wife is that the seats are not very comfortable for long travel, and the gas usage, well let's put it this way, those who buy this type of trucks really shouldn't care about that, we know is high, but this truck is a luxury. Last word, this truck make you feel like you're driving a nascar.
The outside styling, the stereo is great,the navigation sys, the U Connect for the mobile, but overall the outside styling. This truck catches your eye.
Defetnitly the seats, they look great, like a racing car should look, but they're just not comfortable, and after a four hour drive your back will let you know that.
Traded in my 2004 Ram 4.7L SLT Quad Cab for an '05 w/ a Hemi. This truck will pull a tree out of the ground! The most powerful gas V8 I've driven by far. Gas mileage not so good but come on it's a truck w/ power. What do you expect? Truck rides smooth and doesn't miss a beat going up hills on the highway. Should have went with the Hemi to begin with b/c there is a great difference in power and the gas mileage doesn't differ a whole lot.
Hemi power, 20" wheels, smooth ride, guage panel
Of course gas mileage but everyone will complain about this until their truck gets 30 mpg
2005 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 4dr Quad Cab SLT 4WD LB (4.7L 8cyl 6M)
I have never owned a pickup truck or actually have a need for a truck- however when i saw the limited edition Ram 1500 Daytona Edition in bright orange at a dealer... I left my Cadillac CTS-V and drove off with this great truck, By far my favorite auto ever owned. The power and handling are supurb, build quality is superior and who can't love that sound of the Hemi engine leaving corvettes at the stop light (in my dust!) The dealer installed extra's helped save me from going out and "pinping my ride"- the truck stops people in thier tracks when they see it. I am converted now, Dodge trucks from here on out. Looks like no other truck on the road. Dwarfs all the lame Chevy and Ford trucks.
Radio controls located on the back side of wheel is a great touch. Lots of storage compartments
Need to look at redesigning 20' rims- they stick out and have gotten badly messed up during unfortunate curb run ins. Telescope steering wheel,

The Pilgrims
Eric Albright, a twenty-six-year-old unemployed journalist, and Stuart Casey, a homeless old drunk, fall through a door in a graffiti-covered wall into the strange world of Levall, where a mountain-sized dragon with the powers of a god lies sleeping beneath a great white castle. Here they are the otherworlders, Pilgrims, and their lives are never going to be the same again.
Read alsoA Natural Law Approach to Normativity
Exploring the relationship between natural law theory and the philosophy of law, Bebhinn Donnelly proposes a new approach to natural law theory - one which addresses some of the tradition's shortcomings and advances further its approach to Hume's dichotomy.Key features:• Provides a clear definition of `nature' in this context • Contrasts the…
In the castle the sinister Lord Vous rules with an iron fist as the Project, designed to effect his transformation into an immortal spirit, nears completion. But Vous' growing madness is close to consuming him, as is his fear of the imaginary being named 'Shadow'. And the arrival of the otherworlders in Levall is about to lend substance to that fear.
No one has ever seen what lies beyond the impossibly vast Wall that divides Levall, but the Pilgrims possess powers strong enough to break it down. If they do, what will enter from the other side?
Will Elliott's brilliantly subversive and creative imagination twists the conventions of the genre to create an unforgettable alternate-world fantasy.
