Re: [evol-psych] Bushman click languages

I hate to do this, but...
I have written parts of these on various mailing lists and Usenet newsgroups, but not all together
in one piece. Perhaps it is time to tie some pieces together in a more coherent fashion...

At the turn of the 19th century, one could encounter literature speaking about the similarity between the click language of the hamdryas baboon and through imitative mimickry, the click language of the Bushman. I've not been able to find anything recent. Can anyone refer me to literature on the click language of the Khoisan and its possible relation to the click language of African apes? Is there literature which discusses the points of contention between those who say there is and those who say there isn't a relationship between the two.
First, baboons are not apes, but monkeys.
Minor quibble.
Second, baboons do not have a "language". It may well be true that hamadryas baboons emit some click-like noises, but those noises do not constitute a language.
There are
1. formal languages (e.g. finite state grammars, context-free languages, etc)
2. natural human languages (e.g. English, Japanese, etc)
3. artificial human languages (e.g. Esperanto)
linguists do not certify (and never did) what "language" is.
I suggest you get used to this.
Third, the term 'click' is being used purely impressionistically here, and no content has been identified. By what criteria do we decide that a given noise is, or is not, a click?
Ridiculous assertion. "Click" is unusual in world's natural human languages. And it is just as good a
way to describe such languages as anything else, e.g. agglutinative, inflective, etc.
Fourth, the African peoples who speak the so-called "Khoisan" languages do not have a "click language", in the sense of a language consisting of clicks.
Usual nitpicking nonsense.
I already suggested that linguists should think deeply about what is meant by "areal" too
all of them are descended from a common ancestor. Click consonants in southern Africa are what we call an "areal feature".
many times to repeat.
Fifth, the so-called click languages are all spoken in southern Africa, while all the sources in my office agree that hamadryas baboons are found only in northeastern Africa and in Arabia.
As I have already indicated on this list and on newsgroups, McEvedy shows (among other things)
that the these languages were originally spoken all the way up north to Egypt and along Eastern
Africa before the Bantu speakers pushed them south.
Actually some of this got started a few years ago when I joined discussion on a an Internet/Usenet newsgroup
This doesn't look very good for an "imitative mimickry" scenario -- not that I would in any case take seriously a proposal that a human language is modelled on animal noises. That stuff, I'm glad to say, went out the window generations ago.
about the reasons why Egyptians painted themselves red (males), their females yellow, Asiatics
white and Negroids black. I suggested that they (like Native Americans and Asians) lacked certain
pigmentation and that they turned red (copper colored) in the sun, while the women (being at home
in the shade) had a yellowish tint. Soon after that (a few weeks at most) genetic evidence was
posted that some of the peoples of the Southern Sudan (and naturally the Bushmen) were the
most representative (e.g. most perfect average) amongst all humans. Now, it is well known that
the Bushmen are short, have epicanthic folds, and have the pigmentation that produces a yellowish
or reddish skin tint. I suggested at the time, that it is too ridiculous to think that humanoids who
evolved in Africa for millions of years would not be black. Hence, I thought that these people were
actually the descendants of mixing of Neandertals and Africans (not Negroids). There is much
confusion of what is African and what is Negroid. I attest this to the confusion amongst the
researchers to think clearly about what matters without feeling guilt about what was done to
West Africans (Negroids) by Europeans, and efforts to compensate for such guilt feelings.
It is clearly not necesary for all Africans to be Negroids. It seems like a real simple idea
but exactly because it is such a simple idea it seems to escape people so eager they are
to lump all Africans together into a big mess.
However, it is clear that just as the Neandertals were an extreme mutation, it is quite possible
that the West Africans (Negroids) were also an extreme mutation and that other "Africans"
(presumably some of whom migrated out of Africa) were not Negroids at all. Some of those
that stayed behind likely got mixed with the Negroids (presumably Bantu speakers).
Sixth, while I haven't seen the 19th-century literature mentioned, I can't believe it's anything other than ignorant and offensive racist nonsense. If this literature has dried up -- and I hope it has -- then maybe that's just a piece of evidence that we are learning to put racist rubbish behind us.
I do not know what you are referring to but I do not see why insinuating that humans might have
started off their "speaking" by some acts similar to what our relatives do is offensive to anyone.
Some of our predecessors were all too eager to see links between Africans on the one hand and apes or monkeys on the other. It's long since past time to forget about this stuff. If somebody shows that the booming snorts emitted by elephant seals involve nasal resonance, what would you think of a proposal to link the "nasal languages" of elephant seals and Frenchmen? ;-)
I do not see any reason why what some of our precedessors did is relevant. Where does it say that
Africans (by which most people mean Negroids) are animal-like? The books on origin of human languages
are probably almost all total speculation, most of them bad. So the proposal is no worse than books already
published (e.g. Lieberman).
It is not a good idea to project one's feelings onto others. Freud certainly would have called a spade a spade.

rejection comes in before denial. Thus, an offer of a spoonful of food can
be rejected by turning the head away (which historically has been
hypothesised as where head shaking for 'no' might come from - but in my
view this is difficult to test), and later a question can be rejected with
a vocal gesture such as 'Do you want some more?'; 'No'. This doesn't
appear, prime facie, to represent much of an advance.
Denial, on the other hand, requires infants to have constructed a
propositional stance such that they can comment on things other than from
their own implied perspective: 'Is this red?'; 'No' (it's blue)'. This
comes in much later, though still can be pre-syntactic.
I think Lois Bloom was the first to write on this in the early '70s, but
I'd need to check.

The Stone Age was a prehistoric event on Irk, similar to the same one on Earth.
Irkens have always been hunters. The beginning of civilization on Irk started around its equator, on a large island where wild exoskeletal beasts were plentiful, but hard to kill, while beasts with internal skeletons were also plentiful but easy to kill. Irkens showed the first signs of intelligence by using a sharpened piece of rock to cut through a beast's exoskeleton and internal skeleton. The Irkens soon after developed tools and built shelters, setting up the first Irken villages. The invention of the boat allowed Irkens to move away from their island and onto mainland. Other primitive Irken species already existed here (such as the Wolf-boar and Hogulus), but upon the arrival of the more advanced Irkens, they were believed to have been slaughtered mercilessly. However, this is not the case, as several of these beasts can still be seen walking around Irk to this day, outside of the main city.

"We are not a secret society. We are a society with secrets." - 7th grader, overheard in the lunchroom

D (2nd grader): Don't talk about my head that way! I am not a cupcake!
2nd grader 1: I'm going to see my best friend that I just met yesterday at the library!
2nd grader 2: By yourself?! Have fun getting kidnapped.
1st grader: What time until lunch?
Me: About 25 minutes.
1st grader: What time until...butt cheeks land? (hysterical laughter)
Kindergarten teacher: Okay, boys and girls! I'm going to have Miss Liz come into our classroom while I go to the bathroom.
Kindergartner: Okay, but did we really need to know that?
1st grader: You're grounded!
Me: Grounded!? For how long?
1st grader: For a really long time. Until you're old! Until you're 17!
"Do you think old ladies are stronger in Minnesota?" - 1st grader
Me: (finishing a phone call)
1st grader: Was that your husband?
Me: No, that was my dad.
1st grader: You have one of those TOO?!
"Is it made of squares? I like it when things are made of squares." - 4th grader
"I love the smell of pizza victory!" - 1st grader
Kindergartner: Why did you wear that shirt today?
Kindergarten teacher: Oh, just because I like it.
Kindergartner: (expressing friendly concern) Well, you kind of look like a zebra.

Screen Printed CAT DOORSTOP
CAT DOORSTOP - CAT is really useful to prop open doors, put on the end of book shelves or indeed to just put on the shelf to look at.
I have screen printed my design onto the front of CAT (hessian) using fabric ink which has been heat fixed. The tweed material on the back has been chosen from my fabric stash.
On the back of the CAT is a handy handle to move it around. CAT Doorstop is filled with
childrens play sand (wrapped in fabric packs) and polyester toy filling.
Cat has been hand stitched to finish.
Measures: W: 9.5 inches x H: 8.5 inches (approx)
Weight: 3lb (approx) - This does vary from cat to cat but they are all sturdy and do a fab job.
Thanks, Mandy

Dr. Melanie Lipton is no stranger to the supernatural. She knows immortals better than they know themselves, right down to their stubborn little genes. So although a handsome rogue immortal seems suspicious to her colleagues, Sebastien Newcombe intrigues Melanie. His history is checkered, his scars are impressive, and his ideas are daring. But it's not his ideas that have Melanie fighting off surges of desire....
Bastien is used to being the bad guy. In fact, he can't remember the last time he had an ally he could trust. But Melanie is different - and under her calm, professional exterior he senses a passion beyond anything in his centuries of experience. Giving in to temptation is out of the question - he can't put her in danger. But she isn't asking him....

First Thought When Finished: I can't believe it is so long to the next one! I can't WAIT! (I guess I have too)
Story Thoughts: I am going to be honest and say that you will get so much more out of the story if you read these books in order. This one built on the previous two with such greatness that I was immediately drawn into the story. I was really curious how Bastian was going to fit in with the rest of the group and was totally thrilled about how it was handled. I am not giving anything away but the way the whole thing played out was perfectly done. I was not disappointed in this edition of the series.
Character Thoughts: I think Dianne writes awesome characters. Bastian was a character that has grown so much since we met him and I was pleased in how he continued to grow in this story. His support of his vampires never wavers and that makes me love him more! Melanie is the perfect match for him. She has always been supportive and she is strong, smart, and wonderful at defending him. I love her gumption and she is probably my favorite female character so far.
Audio Thoughts:
Narrated By Kirsten Potter at a running time 11 hrs and 36 mins
Kristen Potter is really good for this series. I think she has perfect pacing and just the right amount of attitude to pull off the strong characters. She has decent male voices and she has great distinction. You can tell who is talking at all times and I adore that! I recommend this series on audio.
Final Thought: Freaking October! That is when the next one is out *sigh*
I love books and love to get lost in the fantasy. I'm always looking for a new good story to bury myself in. :)
"Another great addition to the series! :D"
4.5-5 stars
Another great book from a great series! I have to say that IMO, Dianne has knocked one out of the park with this series. So far I love the characters, the storylines are interesting and engaging in a way that keeps me wanting more and the quality of the stories has been maintained as the series continues!
Melanie is a doctor at the Network (the human network that helps the Immortals). She works with the Vampires they have at their facilities, trying to work with them to keep the madness to overtake them and trying to find a cure for the virus that transforms them. She first met Sebastian under less than ideal circumstances but felt an attraction to him regardless.
Sebastian was originally introduced in Book #1 Darkness Dawns as the bad guy. It ends up he's an Immortal that was mis-led, he thought he was a Vampire and had a revenge plot against the Immortals. After 200 years, Sebastian finds everything he believed was a lie and has to face trying to live life as an Immortal among other Immortals who hate his for his past. He doesn't have an easy time of it as every move he makes and every thing he says is scrutinized for fault. Sebastian, being a smart-butt, tends to let his mouth run away with him (I think as a defense mechanism) and so doesn't make friends easily. Sebastian feels an attraction to Melanie but holds back because he fears association with him will cause her problems with her job (since Melanie's boss is one of the folk that doesn't like him).
Sebastian and Melanie meet multiple times while she tends to the Vampire recruits and Sebastian visits them (they used to be part of Sebastian's army from book #1). Things don't really begin for them until trouble starts showing up in the form of a mercenary organization that seems intent on capturing both Vampires and Immortals for examination and profit (think super-soldiers). Sebastian tries to recruit help from the Vampires while the Immortals try to keep both Immortals and Vampires out of the clutches of the mercenaries. During this time, Melanie and Sebastian are thrown together a few times and it becomes apparent that the attraction between them in mutual but Sebastian is determined to stay away from Melanie because being associated with him would soil her reputation and cause her troubles. Melanie doesn't listen and pushes past Sebastian's feeble resistance, knowing they'll both be happier together. Melanie is pretty kick-butt and doesn't let people tell her who she can and can't be with. She fights for it, even if she has to fight Sebastian. Fortunately, she doesn't have to fight too hard before he gives in.
While things are starting to go well between Sebastian and Melanie, the action plot continues to heat up. Just when they think they've had some success, it ends up bringing about an attack on the Immortal , the likes if which they haven't seen for a long, long time. There are losses but they manage to beat back the enemy and pull things out. Melanie is almost killed and Sebastian has to go to some lengths to help her come out of it (and better then she would have otherwise). In the end, the mercenaries seem to have been dealt with and things settle down. Melanie and Sebastian settle in to their HEA (and Sebastian is even on his way to being more accepted by the other Immortals) which I was very happy with.
This was such a great story. I love the heroes of this series but I have to say that so far, I've really loved all the heroines as well and sometimes that's hard to come by. The heroines of this series are all smart, courageous women and Melanie was just another example of this. I love this series and can't wait to see what comes next. This is actually a reread of this book but I found it just as great the second time around. I'd recommend this book. Thumbs up!
"Very interesting"
yes. I liked Melanie being the doctor and having a purpose of her own it made a good lead into the action
That Sebastian was disliked by everyone and didnt care
Sebastian was believable
Time heals all wounds
Love anything about shifters and lycanthropy. Paranormal romance is my thing! best escape and entertainment I can imagine! :]
"Really Enjoying this entire series!"
I don't read.... But i can say i am adoring the narration and the entire series!
I really like the heroines in this series. They are practical and realistic women. They are alot like me! Melanie is awesome and i adore her right along with Aimee and Sarah from the previous two installments.
GREAT NARRATION!!! Wonderful performance! Really good with all the voices and accents etc.
I have laughed out loud more than once. I have smiled and grimaced and really been a part of this world whilst listening. This whole series is one that once i start a book, i can't stop and have to listen straight through... :]
Can't wait to get the next one!!! I want to be an Immortal Gaurdian! (or the girlfriend to one, at the very least!)....
"Great Series"
I have really enjoyed getting to know the characters in this series. I like how we get to know Sebastian better in this book. Things that were hinted about in the first books we revisit in this book. Highly recommend all of the books in this series.
I have already listen to it twice. I like where the storyline is going
Just as good as the first two, love all the characters
Yes, this is the best
Yes, I loved when they tracked down the bad guy and Amy was able to get her revenge.
Can't wait for the next book in the series.
"A wonderful paranormal romance"
There is so much drama,suspense and action in every chapter! This is a very moving love story between Bastian and Melanie.
Bastian. Who doesnt love a wounded soul?
I thought Kirsten Potter did a great job. Loved her voice!
Fast paced romance and danger
I would recommend this series to anyone who enjoys paranormal romance. I am smitten with her stories and characters. The stories will not disappoint!!!
"Good book and loved the way it was read."
I loved the book and the reader. It had action and love senses that were hot and I love hot. And at times I had to laugh at the way the main lady talked to her new lover. He was like a man from the 1800's and had no problem telling her just how he wanted to make her feel good. And she had no trouble keeping him on his toes and making him feel like she thought he was no big deal and she could take him or leave him. But her body told him different. Well going forward in the book things change and the twists and turns kept me into the book and I loved it. I'll wait for the next book to come out. I read the first two as this was the third in the series. But I can't really remember them so I'm going back to read them all over again. I love to laugh and feel the HOT togetherness in these books along with action that has you holding your breath one minute and laughing the next. I would pay a credit for it.
"A Decadent pleasure, you must."
There was a story line that branched off. The characters are developed and the interactions between them are humorous and endearing. You feel vested in all relationships and their interactions. The romance is believable and sensual.
Her other books, Night Reigns, same author. They are good but Jeanine Frost is better. The story makes you want more.
She did all the characters very well. You feel vested. She brings them to life.
I actually did listen in one day. After trying some other books with disappointment I have listen to all her books several times. It makes for a clean house.

We had a BLAST in ALASKA: Norwegian Pearl Cruise Review by ashjt
Overall Member Rating
We had a BLAST in ALASKA
Destination: Alaska
Embarkation: Seattle
Embarkation was a breeze. We left Crowne Plaza via coach bus at 12:00 and by 12:45 we were ordering drinks poolside! It was all very festive and the crew only added to the excitement.
The Pearl was immaculate! She sparkled as though she were brand new! Every area we encountered was clean and shiny.
I can't say enough about the crew we encountered. Everyone went out of their way to be helpful and friendly. I had a little trouble understanding a couple of guest service representatives, but that was OK, I finally understood them!
We ate mostly in the main dining rooms and thought the food was excellent and was pleasantly surprised with the variety of options. We did eat one night at Cagney's and although the food was excellent, probably would More not spend the extra $25 a person to do it again. Garden Cafe was a zoo at times, but we learned to go at non peak times and discovered the food was just as hot and fresh any time we went.
Alaska was gorgeous and Glacier Bay unbelievable! It was truly a vacation to remember. Less

Loved this cabin and aft balcony view! We loved the location and using the aft elevators and stairwell because they were never crowded and very convenient to the Garden Cafe and Great Outdoors.

We had a great time at DragonCon yet again this year. It is just such a great opportunity to see old friends and make new ones. This year was a little off organizationally due to all the traffic routing issues with the Marriott being under construction, but it was still a great time. Brandi and I really didn't have much time to experience the post con depression due to the wedding planning and buying a house, but we still felt that post con tug on our hearts as friends headed out to their different areas of the country/world.
Steampunk really seemed to be the new and upcoming thing. Brandi and I are not ones to jump on the bandwagon, but it is just such a great movement we really must do something for next year. We are already talking, along with others, about possible ideas. I can't wait to work on this one. Course, the schedule is starting to get really packed for next year.

Glad you like it. Thanks! ;)

Although the perspective makes me a bit disoriented, I still think its a beautiful piece of retro. I like the way that it reminds me of the old sci-fi movies like The Fifth Element. Anyway, Great Work, radshoe!
I agree, I messed up the perspective in this one. Still needs a lot of improvement. I only hope it didn't ruin the whole thing too much. I appreciate the feedback, thanks! ;D

Why you need to eat more cupcakes…
Ahem….Now that I have your attention, let's talk about Lentils!
Did you know…..
1 cup of lentils = Approximately 18 grams of protein and 14 grams of fiber?
They are extremely helpful for balancing blood sugar, aid in reducing cholesterol, and are one of the most sustainable pulses on the planet. These little nuggets sure pack a punch! Not only are they high in protein and fiber, they are also rich sources of folate, copper, iron, and molybdenum.
You can find lentils at most grocery stores either prepackaged or in the bulk bins. When selecting lentils, make sure there is no sign of moisture and the lentils are whole, not cracked. Lentils can be stored for up to twelve months in an airtight container.
Eat 'em in soups, salads, dips, curries or yes….even in, yes…cupcakes!
Check out THIS recipe below for a new take on cupcakes… lentil style. I suggest substituting the sugar with maple syrup and honey and using a touch less of the liquid ingredients like oil. I'm not a fan of canola oil, so I'd suggest Grapeseed or olive.
Yours in high fiber and nutrient density, Mary

Domaine Mas Bahourat Cabernet Sauvignon
This product is currently sold out.
The heady scents and rich smooth flavours of the Domaine Mas Bahourat Cabernet Sauvignon, Pays du Gard really hit the spot. Believe it or not, 100% Cabs aren't all that common in France (well, we haven't found too many of them anyway) so this is something worth trying to find out where it all began for this majestic grape. The Domaine Mas Bahourat displays typical characteristics of freshly cut green peppers and blackcurrant fruit on the nose are backed up on the palate with rich soft bramble fruit flavours with a touch of crushed mint and no trace of the sometimes typical Cabernet harshness. Rich smooth and well balanced. Try this wine with lamb shanks, BBQ meats and home-made burgers.

East Multnomah County
To learn about existing literacy programs and partnerships and to better understand barriers to early literacy building, we engaged deeply with communities in East Multnomah County. Beginning in May 2014, we worked with Early Learning Multnomah, the Reynolds School District, local libraries and a host of community and culturally specific organizations to convene parents, community partners and education leaders.
East Multnomah County is home to families who speak more languages than anywhere in the state and is rich with cultural diversity. Many families experience generational poverty or struggle to meet their basic needs. Through the stORytime initiative we set out to better understand both real and perceived barriers families experience in helping their children with early literacy building. Through a series of community conversations spanning months we engaged the community in helping us determine how communication to, and engagement with families about literacy building can alleviate barriers and be both regionally and culturally specific.
On November 12th, we'll be launching stORytime at an event that brings together students from Reynolds School District, community and education leaders, local businesses, libraries, and elected officials for a celebration at Mt. Hood Community College. The event will build excitement for students, empower families and challenge the community to come together to put local students on a path to lifelong success by helping to ensure they are reading proficiently by third grade.

Wednesday, May 12, 1943
An ugly note Home Front note was sounded regarding interned Americans of Japanese descent. Despite the need for food, the 38 army bases near Japanese internment camps (link to documentary) refused to accept their produce, thus requiring more expensive supplies to be brought in. At the very same time, Lt. Gen John L. Dewitt denied in a Supreme Court hearing that the internment itself resulted from racial prejudice. Also on the Home Front, Mim was on the hunt for an inexpensive high chair. Given wartime restrictions, she wisely made use of new family connections. And so the quest was passed to Lois who passed it on to her parents who had recently received help from Mim's mother in a different hunt. That is how Mim received a gracious note from Lois' mother assuring her. "We wrote our wholesaler. As soon as we hear from them, we will let you know. Express my thanks to your mother to go through so much to obtain some chickens for us." The chickens would have been kosher chickens which Abe's mother could pick up in New York City. The whole point of having mishapocah is knowing how to mobilize connections. The big wartime news was a meeting in Washington, DC between President Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. Could anyone doubt they were planning to open a European front against Germany and that the war would end soon?

WASHINGTON House-passed requirements for intensified screening of cargo on passenger aircraft and ship-borne goods heading toward the U.S. are unlikely to survive in the Senate, a House leader on security issues conceded Wednesday.
The provisions were part of a House bill that was ballyhooed as the first legislation to pass in the Democratic-controlled Congress this year. Approval was meant to signal the new leadership's priorities in pushing through security recommendations of the 9/11 Commission.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, told reporters that two key provisions of the House bill are unlikely to make it through the Senate.
"With the exception of ports and cargo screening," he said, "everything else should go through."
In addition to the cargo-screening measures, the House bill provided funds to improve emergency communications systems, make it harder for terrorists to obtain nuclear weapons, and improve information-sharing between government agencies.
Thompson said his staff has heard from Senate staff members about what's realistic to expect as the Senate considers the House-passed homeland security bill. It is uncertain when the Senate will begin considering its version.

NSF Webcast: Water and Oil Everywhere, and Now it's Safe to Drink
Developer demonstrates oil filtration technology tested in 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill
Building upon research conducted during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, engineers have incorporated a swellable nano-structured glass called Osorb® into a system for extracting pollutants like dissolved petroleum from water--and collecting the petroleum for later use.
During a webcast from the National Science Foundation, developer Paul Edmiston of the College of Wooster will demonstrate the new application for the Osorb® technology and discuss how it is being evaluated in the petroleum industry.
As part of the media briefing, Edmiston will conduct demonstrations to show how the material expands to eight times its original volume in the presence of hydrocarbons--expanding with a force that could lift 20,000 times its original weight--and filter a gasoline-tainted sample of drinking water for consumption. Questions before and during the webcast can be directed to firstname.lastname@example.com. See a video showcasing Osorb® research on The College of Wooster's YouTube channel.

Move to Academy Status
The governing body has voted by a majority decision (11 votes to 1) for Burscough Priory Science College to convert an empty Multi Academy Trust (MAT).
Moving to academy status is about securing outstanding provision for our students; improving standards; developing our learning community and creating a teaching and learning environment fit for the 21st Century. There is a significant focus on standards within the academy system and we will be held rigorously to account by the Regional Schools Commissioner. Further, academy status will secure our ethos and vision, providing a platform to develop the life chances for our young people. It will provide staff opportunities to work with other academies, develop best practice and vital professional development which is not currently available to them. Finally, we will have access to funding streams not available to maintained schools.
Converting to Academy status will not change the day-to-day feel of our school, there would be very little difference to that which is experienced currently. The structure of the leadership team here would also remain the same with the Headteacher making the day-to-day decisions and contributing to the strategic leadership with our Governing Body. Our strong working relationship with other schools would also not be affected.
The process
The Governing Body has submitted the application form to the DfE. This will now be scrutinised by the local Headteacher board and reviewed by the Regional Schools Commissioner.
- Governing Body is granted an Academy Order from the DfE.
- Existing employer consults with staff and Union representatives.
- Transfer of land and buildings to the Multi Academy Trust.
- Burscough Priory Science College becomes an Academy forming our own MAT
We will keep you fully informed as we receive further information.
Yours faithfully

Academy Consultation
Over the past few years many schools have successfully converted to academy status. The Governing Body of Burscough Priory Science College has for some time been considering whether it is right for our school and more recently we have had a working party looking at the advantages and disadvantages of doing so.
Recently, the Governing Body of the school voted to enter into a period of consultation with regard to converting to an Academy, starting our own Multi-Academy Trust. The governors and I believe that this action would bring a number of key benefits for Burscough Priory Science College and more importantly our children. Please find attached relevant documents that will inform the consultation process.

Bend — Don't Break — When a Cyber Breach Occurs
It's no longer if, but when, an organization will be breached. While the traditional view of cybersecurity was to simply focus on keeping hackers out, today's organizations must plan for the worst and have a proactive approach to protect their IT environment and minimize data loss and damage in the face of a crisis.
Equally important is that organizations must methodically investigate and gain clarity of every incident using advanced digital forensics to minimize the risk of a future negative event.
Incident Response Services
HORNE Cyber provides support during a cyber crisis with a rapid, methodical response to contain, mitigate, eliminate and remediate the threat.
Malicious attackers can reside on an organization's network for months before detection. When a cyber breach hits your organization, HORNE Cyber's team of cybersecurity and digital forensics professionals step in and guide your organization through every step of the cyber breach lifecycle.
HORNE Cyber's team identifies what went wrong and what was negatively impacted. The root causes and vulnerabilities that led to the compromise are then identified to help you take the right measures to ensure it does not happen again.
Digital Forensics
We know that cyber criminals and malicious insiders leave behind digital evidence of their actions against your organization that can be recovered and investigated. HORNE Cyber has assisted and trained local, state and federal law enforcement on investigating computer crime, and apply this experience to research and recover digital evidence. In legal proceedings, our team will provide witness testimony on digital forensics matters.
HORNE Cyber mitigates the risk of losing critical digital information while increasing your system's IT security. In the case of a security breach or negative event, HORNE Cyber's digital forensics professionals assist in data recovery and investigation of material on digital devices while also working to restore and repair data and files that were compromised in the breach.
Incident Response Planning
The reality today is that there are no safe places left to hide from cyber attackers. HORNE Cyber assists in making sure you have the proper incident response plan and professionals in place to mitigate your risk.

Hello ladies (and men) - I am new to the business and trying to set up a job sheet so as to collect all the info in one place (quantity, # of colors, dimensions, client contact, etc) and stay organized. I've got one started but, as I'm mainly the designer and my husband is the printer, I'm sure I'm missing some key info that he would need. I'm guessing this is a pretty common practice in letterpress shops but I'm not finding examples online (maybe I'm not calling it the right name?). Would anyone be willing to share their sheet with a newbie? Thanks and I apologize if this is listed somewhere else on the site - please direct me if it is!

I forgot to add I'll be keeping track of all the billing, invoices, purchase orders, etc using Quickbooks, this is just something to help collect data in one place for job pricing and also for my old-fashioned husband to have on hand when he's actually doing the printing out in the shop.
quick and dirty sample of what i've got so far attached, suggestions/advice needed!
In most production shops, a sheet such as this would be printed on an envelope, so there's a handy place to keep samples, art, revisions, proofs and whatever other stuff winds needing to be with the job for future reference. Mine are printed on 6 x 9 inch envelopes, and while needing to have a few revisions (customer info), here is a sample of the layout.

If you are considering a little home decoration in relation to a new guest room, why not consider creating an eco-friendly one? An eco-friendly guest room can be fun and serve a grand purpose, as well. You can save money and save the environment while having a little fun all at the same time.
From floor to ceiling, you can create the eco-friendly guest room of your dreams using home decoration tips for going green.
Flooring Options
When it comes to flooring options, going green for your guest room should be an easy choice. Repurposed or reclaimed lumber is a great option for your new guest room floor. Lumber or timber taken from facilities such as an old factory or a barn that is then reused or repurposed for flooring in homes is a great way to recycle or reuse that lumber. Since a wood floor is essentially timeless, using repurposed wood lumber for your guestroom floor is a wise choice indeed, when it comes to home decoration for that room.
Other eco-friendly flooring options that are beautiful and inexpensive are bamboo and cork. As for carpeting, look for options that use all-natural fibers like cotton and which have little or no chemicals such as toxic adhesives. Carpets that utilize vegetable dye for their coloring and that are tacked down instead of glued down with toxic adhesives are great as well.
Walls and Ceilings
There are many options for eco-friendly home decoration to dress and adorn your walls and ceilings. Many folks are even utilizing cork on their walls as well as silk, cotton, and eco-friendly paints. Picture having a silk ceiling that slightly drapes a bit to create an elegant and regal style for your new guest room. Get creative and utilize newspaper or old photographs on your walls for décor with a backdrop of cork. Not only is this eco-friendly, it is decorative and stylish all at the same time.
Green Home Decorating Accessories
Once you have the foundation for your guest room, now it's time to think about decorating accessories. You can find many eco-friendly bedding and furniture items in stores and online. For decorative accents, why not check out garage sales and flea markets where you can find beautiful decorative accents that can be recycled/reused, like glass bottles and jars for vases or old picture frames.
These finishing touches will add beauty and charm to your eco-friendly guest room, and who knows, your guests may just wind up staying a little longer than planned.

Inside linebacker Joe Mays signed a two-year contract with the Kansas City Chiefs this week, but the details of the contract make it evident Mays will need to play very well in 2014 in order to stick around in 2015.
Mays' contract is worth $6 million. His cap number is $2 million this year, a relatively team-friendly number for a starting inside linebacker who will probably come out of the lineup on passing downs.
But his cap number doubles to $4 million in 2015. Included is a clause that will make $1 million of his 2015 salary guaranteed if he's still with the Chiefs by April 15 of next year. The Chiefs can walk away from his contract before that date and it won't cost them a nickel.
Until then Mays, who began his career playing for Andy Reid with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2008, looks to be a starting inside linebacker alongside Derrick Johnson. The Chiefs also have Nico Johnson, a fourth-round draft pick last season. But the Chiefs obviously aren't comfortable with the idea of Nico Johnson starting. If they were, they wouldn't have signed Mays.
Mays had some options, including re-signing with the Houston Texans. He spent last season with Houston after three with the Denver Broncos and two with Reid and the Eagles.
"The only thing they told me is they're going to bring me in to compete,'' Mays said today. "I'll let everythng else play out, just come in there and do what I need to do. Hopefully I'll carve out a role for myself.''

Easter Seals Hawaii's Gingerbread Family Festival started out in 1999 as a small family-oriented event on Oahu with the goal of bringing ESH friends and families together to build gingerbread houses and make memories. Over the next 14 years, our small festival became an increasingly popular fundraising event and expanded to Maui, Hawaii Island, and Kauai. In 2014, the festival was attended by thousands of people statewide and featured live entertainment, photos with Santa, team competitions, and more.
Each year, the staff at Easter Seals Hawaii would so look forward to seeing the community come together to kick off the holiday season in support of our organization. That is why it took much deliberation, consideration, and exploration of alternatives before we came to the conclusion to not have the Gingerbread Festival in 2015. The festival has finally outgrown our staffing and funding resources and as a result, we are taking a step back to evaluate alternative ways for Easter Seals Hawaii to continue to be a part of families' holiday traditions.
Thank you to the Harry & Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, CVS/Long's, Zippy's, Territorial Savings Bank, GEICO, and all the other companies that have sponsored our festival since its inception.
Thank you to all our dedicated volunteers who worked so hard to make every festival possible.
Lastly, thank you to everyone who attended the festival over the years. We sincerely hope we were able to provide some cherished memories. On behalf of all the staff at Easter Seals Hawaii, we wish you all a very happy and healthy holiday season.

Posted on the Alchemical Wealth Building Blog
The Phrase "Alchemical Wealth Building" can be parsed in two ways-'Alchemical Wealth' building as in the building of "Alchemical Wealth" and Alchemical 'Wealth Building' approaching building wealth in an Alchemical fashion. At first glance these might seem like different things however it is not possible to be an alchemical 'wealth builder' without first and foremost being an 'Alchemical Wealth' builder.
Alchemical Wealth is the treasures no thief can steal and no moths can eat. It is what you get from authentic inner alchemy- inner transformation. Wisdom, compassion, unconditional happiness, unconditional bliss, true freedom- these are examples of Alchemical Wealth.
One cannot even begin to build external wealth in an alchemical fashion until one at least intellectually understands that no kind of external wealth (be it money and that which it buys, relationships, achievements, "power", recognition or even health) can actually be a source of true happiness. To the degree that ones aim at building wealth is based on the mistaken belief…(read more)
