Adult Day Services
The CPRF Adult Day Services program provides personal care, educational activities, community outreach, and recreation for adults who receive I/DD waiver services. Adult Day, we have two programs: the Kenneth J. Wagnon Life Skills Program and the K.T. Wiedemann Adult Learning Center.
Clients in both programs have access to music therapy by Wichita State University School of Music graduate students and our Sensory Room, where clients can privately enjoy soothing music, aroma therapy, fiber-optic rope lights, a weighted blanket, and more. Our activities for both programs aren't limited to the indoors – we also have an adjustable basketball goal, a wheelchair swing, and a full garden for everyone to enjoy and get some fresh air. We do not have a sheltered workshop or supported employment program.
Kenneth J. Wagnon Life Skills Program
The Life Skills Program is for adults who have a disability that requires more personal care. Our aides and staff have reading, crafts, and other daily activities for clients to ensure their daily time at our program is enriching and well-rounded.
K.T. Wiedemann Adult Learning Center
The Learning Center offers educational opportunities from gardening demonstrations by the Sedgwick County Master Gardeners, to cooking lessons, to recreational learning opportunities, and more. Clients also benefit from exercise and physical maintenance programs, as prescribed by their physician, as well as personal care and support.
Our facility is fully accessible for those with assistive mobility devices.
For more information about our services, contact Heather Leib, Director of Adult Day Services, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

There is a gorgeous cake uploaded from OSSAS. It was the most popular cake eariler today. It was made by Tammi Luckey. Has anyone already asked where you can find the cutters she used? I haven't checked but I don't think she is on this site. I am dying to know. I lovvvvvve her cake!
...also do you think the cake is covered in black or just dark brown fondant?
I believe it is covered in brown fondant.
It looks like she didn't use a cutter. It seems like she hand cut it out herself using a template (not sure).
I know Tammy personally and got to spend time with her at OSSAS. She is on CC under cakelady77 and I'm sure she would love to hear from you, just send her a pm. I saw the cake as OSSAS and I think it was cutters but I could be wrong.
Thanks so much tracycakes. So glad I can find her!

So I have a good guy friend. I only see him as a friend and nothing else.
Two months ago, he told me that he liked me. I said no but even now, he won't sop flirting with me. This includes using puppy eyes, hugging me every chance he gets, texting me everyday, reading my Tumblr posts and asking who they're about. It's getting annoying. Why is he doing this? And what should I say to him?
He won't stop flirting even after I said I didn't like him?
So I have a good guy friend. I only see him as a friend and nothing else.
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 1
did you just ask "why is he doing this?" the answer is in your first sentece...as for everything else the simple thing to do is just ignore his txt, keep a decent distance from him at all times and even if you have to if he attempts to hug you just brush it off...it sounds pretty harsh but he has to get the message one way or the other00|00|0

392 pages, 24 b/w photos, 1 table
Human beings have long imagined their subjectivity, ethics, and ancestry with and through animals, yet not until the mid-twentieth century did contemporary thought reflect critically on animals' significance in human self-conception. Thinkers such as French philosopher Jacques Derrida, South African novelist J. M. Coetzee, and American theorist Donna Haraway have initiated rigorous inquiries into the question of the animal, now blossoming in a number of directions. It is no longer strange to say that if animals did not exist, we would have to invent them.
This interdisciplinary and cross-cultural collection reflects the growth of animal studies as an independent field and the rise of "animality" as a critical lens through which to analyze society and culture, on a par with race and gender. Essays consider the role of animals in the human imagination and the imagination of the human; the worldviews of indigenous peoples; animal-human mythology in early modern China; and political uses of the animal in postcolonial India. They engage with the theoretical underpinnings of the animal protection movement, representations of animals in children's literature, depictions of animals in contemporary art, and the philosophical positioning of the animal from Aristotle to Derrida. The strength of this companion lies in its timeliness and contextual diversity, which makes it essential reading for students and researchers while further developing the parameters of the discipline.
The contributors succeed in making a range of complex issues in contemporary animal studies accessible -- and even engrossing -- to the ordinary educated reader, and the editors provide a richly intelligent mapping of the field.
- J. M. Coetzee, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature
"Impressive and startling, this anthology shows the radical potential of edited volumes to break ground beyond the scope of monographs. Fascinating new studies in fields as diverse as philosophy, ethics, media studies, wildlife management, and children's literature challenge the 'animal/human binary' of Western thought. This borderline reveals itself to be neither ontologically fixed nor biologically stable. Rather, it is wondrously fluid and contingent, existing both within and without human beings. As Claude Levi-Strauss famously observed in culture and Paul Shepard has memorably mapped in cognition, we continue to 'think' with animals -- to imagine ourselves in relation to them, or, as Aaron Gross puts it, 'to self-conceptualize through animals in particular contexts.' The rich array of ideas offered here seems to suggest we can do nothing other than that. Yet at the same time we are moved 'to pause, put to rest, or surrender the categories animal and human.' It is to the editors' infinite credit that this paradox is left unmolested, thus emerging as an oracle."
- Kimberely Patton, Harvard University, coeditor of "A Communion of Subjects: Animals in Religion, Science", and "Ethics"
"Evocative and provocative, these essays deeply unsettle the Western tradition's assumption of an abyss between human and non-human animals. Probing contemporary biopolitics in relation to animals, they announce the necessity of nothing less than a mutation in thought. Here, the ethics of difference, vulnerability, and responsibility come face to face with the uncanny proximity and radical distance of animals. As this anthology shows, animals regard us, and we can't evade that call."
- Elisabeth Weber, University of California, Santa Barbara
"The editors do not simply take stock of the current state of animal studies. Instead, they have gathered together a number of interesting and original researchers who are themselves making novel contributions to the field. This anthology is an important book, both as an introductory text and as a volume that advanced researchers will turn to in hopes of finding inspiration and new ideas in animal studies."
- Matthew Calarco, Associate Professor of Philosophy, CSU Fullerton
"'Animals and the Human Imagination' soars. Intellectually exciting, smart, and accessible, this volume will intrigue and revolt, surprise and inspire. The opening overview by Gross is a tour de force and each essay fascinates. Collectively they offer an invitation to think in new ways about what we, perhaps wrongly, call our humanity. I can't imagine a better introduction to the essential new field of critical animal studies."
- Jonathan Safran Foer
"What the remarkable and academically diverse collection of essays in 'Animals and the Human Imagination' achieves is to point out how we have made animals vanish in our language and how we might bring them back into our collective vision again... This book will inspire more scholarly work on animals, but it will also supply fuel for activists who hope to treat animals more humanely -- not to say humanly -- in the world outside the academy."
- Wendy Doniger, Mircea Eliade Professor of the History of Religions at the University of Chicago, and author of "Women, Androgynes, and Other Mythical Beasts" (University of Chicago Press, 1980)

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is KoHub?
The coworking space is located a 2 min walk from Pra Ae beach here
What are KoHUB's Opening Hours?
We're open 24 hours a day 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year! The reception is open 8am to 6pm, so on your first visit please come between these hours so we can get you all set up and settled. Our night security guard is here all night, so if you have to do a middle of the night meeting, you won't be here alone. He locks up at midnight but you can access KoHUB by simply knocking on the door. (Though we'd like to be pre-warned of middle of the night visits if possible!)
What's the internet speed and reliability at KoHUB?
We are close to the mainland so the internet on Koh Lanta is very fast. We have two optic fibre connections from different providers. These are link shared with fail-over to make sure we always have internet. Our combined bandwidth is 150 Mbps down and 35 Mbps up. Our speed tests see us constantly going over 50 Mbps down and 25 Mbps up. Here is a link to a speedtest: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5279907190 We have a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) unit on all our networking equipment. This means that our internet doesn't go down if the mains power fails and then we run our generator, so the internet is uninterrupted.
Is the power reliable? What about power cuts? You're on an island.
Power is pretty stable on Koh Lanta, and we only experience power cuts about once every month or so, and only for a couple of hours. We have a back up generator, so if mains power goes down our UPS provides power for the network until we turn on our generator. There will be several minutes when there is no power for the rest of the building as we go about the business of turning the generator on. Once the generator's on, we can power fans, lights, computers, but the AC will be off until the mains power is back on. Building electrics are earthed, and we provide power boards with surge protection. Whilst we have done all we can to keep power on, keep internet connections solid, and protect from electricity surges, we can't take any responsibility for any damage to equipment or loss of data due to internet or power disruption.
How far away is the beach?
Just a two minute walk from KoHUB!
Do you have external monitors that coworkers can use?
In our aircon-room we have two 24 inches full HD monitors that can be used.
Where can we get Digital Nomad Insurance for our stay?
We get asked this all the time and the only company who offer insurance to people already on the road are World Nomads. Check them out, they are a bit more expensive, but the only option we have found.
Do I need to make a reservation in advance to use KoHub?
No, you do not need to make a reservation in advance. If you are a big group traveling together, we would appreciate if you could drop us an email in advance.
What kind of memberships do you offer?
We offer daily, weekly and monthly pass. We do not have any memberships by the hour or half day. Our prices are geared up for long term membership, so we reccommend to get the best deal to take the monthly membership.
For how long is the daily pass valid?
The daily pass is valid from the moment you buy it, until 8 AM the next morning. To get maximum value from your daily pass we recommend to come in early. But remember we are open 24 hours a day, however you must sign up before 6pm.
Is there a safe place to store my laptop in case I want to go to the beach and come back later?
Yes, we have safety lockers at KoHub that can be used during the day. These are not permanent or overnight lockers and have to be cleared out by the end of the day.
Skype and conference facilities
In general we are a peaceful, but "chatty" coworking space. We ask people to respect their neighbours space and to be aware of the volume when talking. If it is a long conversation we generally advise to find a comfortable space to do so.
For Skype calls and meeting areas KoHub has the following:
– Two booths (with A/C) in the lounge that are dedicated private areas for people to break out and get some space. They are not fully sound proofed – but more a hybrid, where there is privacy.
– Many indoor areas, we are a large space and we have lots of places to break out for a call.
– Many outdoor areas where people break out to make a call, hammocks, Skype huts, courtyard, juice bar and some small semi-private areas.
Do I need to reserve a table?
No. We have plenty of space and there is always a chair and desk available.
What is the layout like at KoHub? Are there air conditioning and rooms available?
Do you have and games or fun facilities on site?
We have dedicated one of our rooms as a 'games' room, so you can relax in between a working day or organise a fun social event after hours.
We currently have bored games, cards, a Nintendo Wii, projector and full size table tennis (ping-pong).
Koh Lanta
Where Can I exchange Money on Koh Lanta?
You can exchange foreign currency at one of the at least four banks on Koh Lanta, two in Saladan, one in Klong Dao and one in Long Beach.
Visa information
There are currently 4 visa options for tourists, but please check with your local Thai embassy or online before you arrive, things change all the time and each country has different possibilities.
1. Get a visa exemption on arrival when you fly in to the country you get 30days, by water and road you get 14 days. You can extend your stay by another 30 days by going to Krabi Immigration with 1 or 2 passport photos, a photocopy of your passport (both your back picture page and your stamp and departure card) and a completed form. The cost is 1900 Baht and takes under 30 mins normally.
2. Apply and receive a (2+1, total 3) month tourist visa before arriving in Thailand. You can do this at your local Thai embassy. The Visa needs to be renewed before the end of the second month at Krabi immigration, which is a quick painless process. You can stay for a total of 90 days.
It is possible to leave the country and travel to a place like Penang to get a new 2+1 visa, whether you can get this or not depends on the immigration office, please double check online for the latest Visa information, Thai Visa is a good starting point.
3. Apply for the 6 month tourist visa in your home country before arrival at your local Thai embassy, this is a more complex process as they sometimes need to check financial situations.
4. Apply for a one year education Visa. See Ko Lanta Language School for more information and assistance in this.

Koh Lanta Seasons
Green Season (May – Oct)
This time of year things quite down, the wind changes direction and with it brings some rain to the whole Andaman coast form the Indian ocean.
The whole island transforms from dry and dusty to wet and lush green.
Accommodation prices drop and some great apartments and villas become available to rent at amazing value!
This is potentially a great time of year for someone who wants good value for money living on a tropical Thai island, if you want less distractions to work and don't mind a day of rain here or there!
KoHub will be open, so there will plenty of fellow KoHubbers around. Also you can get the whole beach to yourself!
Dry Season (Nov – Apr)
Things start to pick up in high season, the weather will slowly start to change and by November we will see endless days of glorious sunshine.
With the weather brings tourism – room prices will rise and availability will drop, making it harder to find a good deal.
There is always somewhere to stay if you have the budget and some good local bargains can be found.
October/November is a good time to turn up to find a long term apartment deal, especially for those that want to stay for many months through high season.
Peak Season (Dec – Jan)
For a few weeks, especially Christmas and New Years Koh Lanta becomes very busy, finding a place to stay can be hard at this time, so book ahead It's still a fun time of year to be on the Island, however if you plan to be here over this period for a long stay, make sure you find a place early. Options can be limited.
KoHUB stays open all year round.
Where to Shop on Koh Lanta?
There are 7-11's all over the island and many local shops.
Bigger Stores
- Lanta Mart in Saladan: Offering the greatest range of products on the island.
- The 'Freezer Shop' on the left hand side driving to Saladan from Klong Dao: They have many frozen products, both local and some imports.
Mobile SIM cards and 3G on Koh Lanta
There are a few carriers on the island we recommend True (3G) and AIS (One To Call 3G). Depending on where you are on the island you will get different reception. Every year they fill the small gaps, but in general one of the two will get a good reception for keeping in contact. 3G plans in Thailand are bandwidth limited. Both AIS & True you can obtain SIM cards on the island very cheap (approx 100 Baht?), then you can pre-pay for 3G per month. See the provider websites for more details. Keep an eye on usage, because when you run out, they will knock you down to 0.1G! Still at those prices it is very affordable. AIS One To Call True Move 3G

The HSCI Cancer Program is working on defining the fundamental molecular and genetic differences between cancer stem cells and their normal counterparts. The development of more effective stem cell-directed therapies--and the eventual eradication of cancer--depends on our understanding of how a normal stem cell becomes a cancer cell.
Sign up to receive news alerts about the HSCI Cancer Program.
Key Research Questions
The HSCI Cancer Program sparks collaborations across Harvard's schools and hospitals to answer the following:
- What are the critical genes and pathways that sufficiently distinguish cancer from normal stem cells?
- Which of the genes and pathways identified would serve as candidate targets for therapy?
Key Scientific Results
Scientific findings from the HSCI Cancer Program include:
- Isolation and molecular characterization of normal stem cell populations from mouse intestine and colon.
- Demonstration that b-catenin is required for leukemia stem cell development and survival.
- Investigation of the selective role of oncogenic KRAS signaling in clonogenic cells isolated from human pancreatic tumors.
- Identification and investigation of key pathways operating in lung tumor-propagating cells.
- Early development of imaging technologies to visualize single tumor-initiating stem cells in the laboratory.

Constantine Maroulis has called the controversial Spider-Man musical "beautiful" and "poetic".
The Rock of Ages star and former American Idol contestant said that he was blown away after recently taking in a preview performance of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.
The Tony-nominated actor told The Hollywood Reporter: "It was the most poetic, provocative and beautiful piece of theatre I've seen in a long f**king time. I realise theatre is not a contact sport but they're in a fight, making art, creating something that's bigger than anything."
The Broadway musical has been plagued with problems in the run-up to its official release. Actress Natalie Mendoza left the show after suffering a concussion during a performance last month, while three other cast members have also been injured on set.
However, Maroulis added: "Sure, actors are at risk sometimes, but we have an incredibly powerful union and they're doing everything they can to make the environment safe. It's unfortunate that people get hurt, but everyone wants to be there or they'd leave like Natalie Mendoza did.
"People are going to attack it like they do every day in the New York Post. But some shows are critic-proof. Look at Wicked - it got crap reviews and it's the biggest show in the world, grossing billions of dollars as we speak. It's just bananas."

The United Thank Offering is a ministry of gratitude. Drop a coin in the Blue Box and give thanks for a blessing or challenge in your life. Then, twice a year, we have In-gatherings to collect all those coins of gratitude. Once every three years, these offerings are collected at General Convention. Monies collected go back out again through grants to dioceses for new ministries.
These collections really do change lives. You will recall the $50,000 grant to Agape Family Ministries in the June Eastern Shore Episcopalian. That grant, which was made possible by the United Thank Offering Ministry and your Blue Box collections, is a perfect example of how the Gift of Thankfulness can impact life-changing programs in our own diocese.
In the 2012 granting cycle, your collections contributed to a $25,000 grant establishing St. Andrew's, Princess Anne, Montessori Preschool, which will provide a quality preschool for poverty level children.
So, put gifts into the Blue Box with thanksgiving, prayer, and generosity. Take blessings out of the Box for grants extending the church's faithfulness to God's mission.
Grants Available
Important deadlines are:
February 17 – all grant applications are due to the diocesan office by noon. Please read the application guidelines carefully.
February 20-28 The Bishop and the Grants Committee review the applications and choose one to put forward – we are limited to one.
March 1 – Diocese submits selected application to the United Thank Offering.

Goats to eat away at fire risk
Forests New South Wales will trial goats in a new bid to reduce the fire risk in its multi-million dollar pine forests around Tumut.
The Hume region manager, Duncan Watt, says a lot of money has been spent on research into spray rust as a control for blackberry infestations, but it has not succeeded.
"We've had a very limited success in doing that and we're looking at any alternative we can to try and get more effective control," he said.
"Using the goats, we can anticipate that it would potentially generate an alternative use of the forest and generate additional income for people who want to get involved in the trial and if it's successful in doing it in longer term programs."
Mr Watt says once trees are established it is much harder to control blackberries and that is where the goats come in.
"If a fire gets established in a plantation it can be difficult particularly for ground-based crews to access the fire to do any suppression," he said.
"I guess it is one thing we are considering as part of our specific fire control is to use goats to create fire breaks within the plantations.
"We're initially thinking at least 200 for a trial area that may be 100-200 hectares in size."
Mr Watt says the goat grazing trial will be run in addition to spraying the blackberry infestations.
"Although we try and do control particularly along boundaries and along roadside and on planting of the new crop, once the trees get established it's very difficult to access the area and so the blackberry, once it gets spread and established, it becomes pretty much a continuous cover and ... very difficult to control under those circumstances," he said.

No other sport is included in the must-do lists of people more than skydiving. Other than the adrenalin rush one gets from jumping off a plane at 10,000 feet, the allure is partly because of a human's great desire to fly, something that seems to be remedied by skydiving. Whether you travel to Cebu or Pampanga (top Philippine skydiving spots), expect a Philippine skydiving adventure to be a truly unique experience.
Skydive with us and experience the thrill while using state-of-the-art equipment that will assure you an enjoyable and undoubtedly safe adventure. You will be guided by ground-to-air radio every step of the way, starting from the airplane all the way to a gentle tiptoe landing. We hope that you come back for more.
Best Times to Go
Skydiving in the Philippines can only be safely done in the fair weather months of November to June, when the sky is clear and perfect for skydiving.
Skydiving Spots in the Philippines
Skydiving in the Philippines is done in two locations: Pampanga and Cebu.
The Pampanga center provides student training and static line parachuting, as well as advanced training.
Jumps in the Queen City of the South can be made in either of the two drop zones (DZ) near the Mactan Cebu International Airport (MCIA): Camotes Island or Tagbilaran Airport. Loads will be done at the MCIA, after which a cross-province flight will occur before jumping above the designated DZ.
Camotes Island is a very big island and virtually every land below you is an alternative landing area. The designated landing area is the runway itself, while the DZ in Tagbilaran has a grassy landing area with the length the same as the runway, but one that is not suitable for swooping.
Getting Started
Beginners have two options: Tandem freefall or a static-line program.
In tandem freefall, you get to experience the dive with a licensed instructor who is harnessed to you. You will be instructed for a few minutes before the actual jump that would take place immediately after.
Most beginner skydivers choose tandem skydiving because of its minimal amount of instruction, and the knowledge that you are harnessed to a licensed skydiving instructor definitely makes things easier, especially if it is your first dive. This is touted to be a great introduction to the sport. Training generally lasts just 30 minutes and depending on the variables, a student may spend only half a day for the training and jump.
Nearing the jump, both student and instructor are attached together to the same parachute system. On signal, they freefall together for about 30 to 50 seconds, depending on the jump altitude (typically 10,000 to 13,000 feet). They descend together under a single large parachute with dual controls.
In the static-line program, the student is assisted during the climb out by the static-line instructor, exits the aircraft solo with the parachute deploying immediately. Exit and opening altitude occur at 3,500 feet, then the student pilots the parachute to the landing area. Pre-flight programs include practical instruction on climb-out and exit, freefall, canopy flight, landing, and emergency procedures.
The static-line program is meant to be an initial course for those wanting to become licensed sky divers.
It is unavoidable to experience some sort of fear throughout the course. Some find that the first jump is the most terrifying while some others feel quite relaxed during their first skydive and feel fear later in the course. This is quite normal and is part of the adrenaline buzz of this course. One of the things you will achieve is the ability to confront and control your fear. When you get past this stage, you can really start to relax and enjoy your sky dives fully.
The reserve canopies are even more carefully designed and packed. The reserve parachute must be inspected and repacked every 120 days by an FAA rated parachute Rigger – even if it has not been used during that time.
The student's main canopy is always packed either by a rigger or under a rigger's direct supervision by experienced packers.
There are also additional safety features employed to ensure canopy deployment such as Automatic Activation Devices (AAD) and Reserve Static Lines (RSL) which add still more layers of safety.
Concerning weight restrictions, there are two primary concerns: First, does the drop zone have a parachute system which you can both legally use and safely land? Second, if you are going to be at the top-end of the safe weight range for a particular parachute, are you in relatively good shape? An imperfect landing will be much less likely to injure an athletic person. If this is unclear, consider the difference between a 5'10" linebacker who weighs 240lbs, and a 5'10" channel surfer of the same weight. If the former has a bad landing, he'll probably brush himself off and get up. The latter may very well injure himself substantially, lacking both the strength to withstand landing and coordination to do a good parachute landing fall (PLF). With this in mind, use the following table as a guide.
Please note that this table is only a guideline. There are experienced skydivers who are quite heavy — however, they likely learned when they were lighter and had mastered landing before they gained the additional weight.

I just want to say we enjoyed our vacation in villa 26 again. We have been visiting half moon for eight years and Its a must I mention the staff in our villa.
This is the first year we have had a different cook and olive didn't disappoint who is lovely, a great cook and very friendly was fantastic. Casell our butler who never disappoints, he will go out of his way to make you happy. Tracy our house keeper who is smiley and looks after the villa and our laundry beautifully. Casell and Tracy have looked after us for many years so you feel like its home they know your likes and dislikes which is great and they don't forget.
We want to thank all three staff for looking after us very well.
On a negative note its a shame that the shops are not all occupied on HM. It would be great if half moon arranged a bus to take you to the shops at rose hall or the owners of the shops were allowed to provide a bus to collect from HM. Taxis are expensive just for a trip out to the...

The Art of Proactive Reviews in Business
EBSCO Publishing has just released a new book summary. In her work with Oracle's EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) group, Ditte Kolbaek developed Proactive Reviews as a means of providing effective knowledge sharing within a company or organization. She believes this can be done through a specific structure and time frame, with certain people involved playing certain roles so that companies can learn how to improve their processes. Only when people learn from past experiences can they avoid making the same mistakes, and only then can they repeat their past successes. Businesses benefit from encouraging constant learning so that they can improve, grow, and move quickly to the next great, revenue-generating idea.
Ditte Kolbaek offers readers the following advice:
· Proactive Reviews are a method for knowledge sharing. The process starts with individuals who have information to share. Proactive Reviews give them an avenue for sharing information with their colleagues to benefit their organizations.
· Proactive Reviews must be structured. Time is of the essence in business. In order to ensure changes will occur quickly, these reviews should be kept within a certain time frame and structure. Doing so will ensure the results, such as new best practices, will be more successful, and employees will be more willing to participate.
· Participants should feel comfortable speaking freely. Those who are running the meeting must let the participants, or Delegates, know the information that is shared will be kept confidential, and they need to look for opportunities to get as many voices heard as possible.
· The results of the Proactive Reviews should be acted upon. Each participant in the Proactive Review has a role to play, with the buck stopping at the Sponsor. This person, who is usually a supervisor, will be responsible for making sure suggestions that arise out of the meetings are carried out.
· Time spent on knowledge sharing will be worth it in the end. Knowledge sharing is the only way for an organization to adapt to the changes around it. Sharing knowledge is necessary for business growth.
· Knowledge sharing is good for morale. Proactive Reviews can help boost the spirits of teams, create stronger organizations, and make everyone's roles in the business clearer.
In addition to a 7-10 page summary of the book, each Business Book Summary includes a Key Concepts section that outlines the main points of the book, an About the Author section that informs readers of the author's background as well as their additional written works, and a Features of the Book Section that explains the special features found within the book.
For busy professionals, Business Book Summaries from EBSCO provide an easy, quick way to stay on top of the best business books in the market. With many titles available in audio format, it becomes even easier to obtain the helpful information available in these top business titles.

"There was only one time we doubted [that we would have enough money] near the beginning. We had a payment due and didn't have enough. I started to really doubt. The very next day a check for the EXACT amount we lacked was in our mailbox with a note that said "God prompted me to give you this amount at this time." They had no way of knowing! Totally God. He funds what He favors!!!!!"
We can read story after story in the Bible about how God provided when His people were in need. Why do we believe that He would stand by without blessing us - without helping us - if we follow His command to care for the orphan? When we step out in faith, God provides! Experiencing that first hand has helped me believe it all the more.
When we began our adoption journey, we got out of our contract to buy 4 acres of land and build a house that we had designed ourselves. This gave us $25,000 at the start of our adoption. Ryan's work reimburses $5,000 of adoption expenses, so we asked people to sponsor puzzle pieces in order to raise $5,000. We would then take the reimbursed money from Ryan's work and pay it forward to another adoptive family. In 9 days, our friends, family, and coworkers donated $5,425! It still blows my mind. We can't wait for God to show us where to pay forward that money, as it is still sitting in our adoption savings account just waiting to be given. We also held a garage sale for 3 days with lots of our own items but also dozens and dozens of donations from other families. This sale resulted in just over $1,000. We knew that bringing Tucker home would cost more than $31,000, and just as I was beginning to wonder how we would find the rest of our funds, I got an email from my friend, Lisa, who said that her husband wanted to raise money for our family during his 100 mile race. I was blown away!! Lisa and Andy gave us $6,000 of the donations and then gave $1,000 to five different families who were adopted with the rest of the donations. God provided for our family through a combination of our of own financial decisions and the generosity of so many friends, family members, strangers, and coworkers. When God leads you to it, He will see you through it! To doubt that would make us just like the Israelites doubting God in the wilderness, Sarah and Abraham doubting that God would give them a son, and Gideon doubting that God would use him to defeat the Midianites.
I recently posted in several different adoption Facebook groups asking people to share how they funded their adoptions. I want to share these ideas with you to help you believe that money can't be the reason you don't move forward with adoption. Just click on the links below to learn more.
For families who completed their adoptions in 2013, they might be eligible for the Adoption Tax Credit of a maximum of $12,970. For more information, please view my previous post explaining how this credit works.

Lifesong - Matching grants ($1,000-$4,000) are provided to families adopting, and donations made by family, friends, coworkers, and strangers are tax deductible.
JSC Foundation - The amount of money awarded varies and is at the discretion of the foundation. I know one family that was given $10,000 by this incredible organization. Applications are due January 15, March 15, May 15, August 15, and October 15 of each year. Families are notified by the end of the following month.
Show Hope - This organization was founded by Steven and Mary Beth Chapman in honor of their daughter, who they adopted from China, but passed away tragically. The six application due dates are Feb 28th, April 30th, Jun 30th, Aug 31st, Oct 31st, Dec 31st. These grants are $4,000 on average.
Families Outreach - Families must be adopting through a nonprofit agency, have a completed home study, and have endorsement from their pastor.
Global Orphan Foundation - Applications are due June 1st and December 1st. Grants awarded up to $11,000 to aid families with adoption.
NAMB - This organization provides grants to pastors/families in ministry.

Advanced / Professional Contemporary Technique with Stephanie Liapis: Stephanie's class is based in release technique and highly influenced by her work with Doug Varone & Dancers. Class begins with a guided improvisation investigating ideas of weight, effort level and sensation. The aim is to help students increase awareness of both intrinsic motivations as well as the body's relationship to space. These concepts are further explored and developed through more traditionally structured exercises. Students are asked to move boldly and physically, finding ease in the joints and committing to the movement task at hand. Class culminates with a vigorous, high-energy movement phrase.
Advanced / Professional Modern with Wade Madsen: In Wade's Advanced Modern class students learn to develop keener awareness of their bodies, beginning on the floor with subtle movements of the pelvis and moving into core strength and full body connections. When the class moves to standing, it follows a vigorous and recurring movement structure for spinal mobility and strength. Ongoing standing exercises set the class in motion. Wade's class addresses strength, stamina, and flexibility and finds its roots in momentum and multiple articulations. The final combinations, challenge the mind and the body, and develop students' endurance. Advanced dancers have been training in Wade's class for more than a decade and a half, keeping the level high and providing opportunities for peers to push one another in a supportive environment. Kid friendly
Advanced / Professional Contemporary with Coleman Pester: In class we will research the use of momentum, weight, and successive articulation of our bodies into and out of the floor. Anouk van Dijk's Countertechnique and Bill Forsythe's improvisational technologies inspire the lens and approach to these elements. We will give value to our differences as catalyst for clarity and deeper understanding of the movement, both physically and theoretically. With a strong emphasis on initiation and release we will work together, through practice and discussion, to build a communal understanding of how the movement is applicable to every body. In the final portion of class we will exercise our responsibility to be perceptive decision makers. We will use our understanding of the movement accumulated throughout class as a vehicle to put into practice our awareness and ability to respond to what is happening around us.
Advanced / Professional Contemporary with Jody Kuehner: This technique class will begin with a warm up that builds heat in the body through continuous flow. We will strengthen the stabilizing muscles of the pelvis, work through concepts of widening and narrowing, use elements of Ashtanga yoga to stretch as well as prepare for inversions. The class will be a container for the advanced body to explore these concepts and train through a physical practice. We will get on our hands and work various inversion across the floor. Movement material at the end of class will focus on spinal articulation, complicated sequencing, low and wide weight shifting, floor work, all set to pop music for fun!
Advanced / Professional Contemporary with Kate Wallich: Class will be an accumulation of movement integration, sensation/awareness, and strength building. Leading in and out of various states of movement, we will focus on qualitative and dynamic research in the body. We will push toward physical exhaustion and find balance inside of technique. Based on various practices of improvisation, we will touch on basic technical forms and approach these with a heightened sense of the self. We will play with dialoguing simple movement vocabularies to push towards a communicative body. This class is highly physical and we will learn movement material.
Afro Modern Funk with Maxie Jamal: Take a break from your traditional Modern dance experience. At times utilizing live drums to carry the spirit of innovation, passion and storytelling through gesture, this class is a unique blend of African movement, using a modern approach, with a funky hip hop groove. Remembering as the drum calls we must come. This class is a modernized reflection of African dance styles from an African American point of view.It will take participants on a journey through the evolution of African movement into Modern, then hip hop, until finally arriving at Afro Modern Funk.
All Levels Contemporary Flow with Matt Drews: A movement incubator, both technical and improvisational, crafted to ignite union with your highest self. A fleshy gaga inspired dance experience to enliven healing and pleasure within your body. We begin as self propelling individuals towards a communicative body with communal awareness. We will experience our body as a conduit for many textures, images, states, and rhythms. Our heightened and available bodies will generate compositional perspectives towards connection. Then excavate our boundaries between physical, emotional, cerebral, and energetic. A conscious practice to investigate the complexities of being and move towards blissful embodiment.
A contemporary approach to Graham Technique with Joshua Crouch: In recent years the graham company has gone through a major revival. With a young company empowered by the foundation of Graham to taken on the repertory of some of most exciting new choreographers working today. This is welcoming class that takes a somatic approach to the original technique built on spirals, imagery and breath. With Joshua Crouch.
Beginning Modern with Kaitlin McCarthy: Work your brain, body, and artistic spirit! An organic, easy-to-follow warm up integrates strength-building, healthy alignment, and dance concepts that will help students move with freedom both on the dance floor and in everyday life. This class focuses on applying concepts of weight, energy, rhythm, and momentum to choreographic phrases. A new combination is taught each week and students are given tools for learning phrase-work and inviting artistic expression. Through use of images and sequence, YOU can learn fun and dynamic choreography, even as a beginner! This class fuses a broad and eclectic mix of techniques that will prepare students to springboard into any dance form that peaks their interest. An enlivening start to your weekend! Kid friendly

Get curious and dive into a supportive and challenging environment while waking up to your experience. Explore form, improvisation, strength + stamina, choreographic material and the pursuit of pleasure. Some dance experience suggested but not required. All levels.
Dance Church with Kate Wallich: Dance Church is an all abilities movement class that offers a fun, nonexclusive approach to dancing. Designed for people of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds and identities, Dance Church is a communal space for everyone who wants to move their body. No previous training is required, but open-mindedness is a prerequisite. Over the course of 90 minutes, Kate guides the class in a series of movement cues, accompanied by a curated playlist of multi-genre pop music. The group listens, explores, laughs and sweats together. From the elation of exhaustion to the stillness of a daydream, Dance Church is a physical wild ride. The mirrors are covered, the lighting is dim and the music is loud. The format is open, there is no front. This is the dance party you wish you had last night. Dance Church was created by Kate Wallich in 2010. www.katewallich.com/#/dance_church
Intermediate Modern with Cait Wyler: Reconnect to your roots and get into your body. This class explores concepts of weight, dynamic rhythm, increased range of motion, and extension of the body through space. We will begin warm-up with stabilization exercises, continue with across the floor work, and finish with a phrase that integrates earlier class concepts to build stamina and artistry. This class is geared toward dancers who have some movement experience and a solid understanding of the body. Kid Friendly
Intermediate Modern Technique with Maya Soto: Class starts on the floor with breath; connecting to the core and building strength. Drawing heavily on flow and momentum, dancers are challenged to shift weight quickly, isolate body parts and move bigger, stronger and faster. Focus is placed on understanding and maintaining healthy alignment while moving. This class flows through traditionally structured exercises and guided improvisations inspired by release and countertechnique principles. Solid technical practice is paired with individual exploration. The dialogue between work and play is important. Increased spinal mobility, range of motion, articulation and specificity are the goals. Class culminates with fun challenging phrases that emphasize rhythmic dynamics and artistic expression. This class is geared toward dancers with a solid movement background. Kid friendly
Movement Jam with rotating faculty: The Contact Improvisation Sunday jam is an open event, welcoming everyone. It has been happening around the world since 1985, and typically includes people across a broad range of experience. It's not a class, but usually includes people happy to explore at whatever level, discuss questions, and if asked, provide guidance. If you're willing to explore in order to find your way, the jam is a great opportunity to practice and enjoy contact improvisation. For more info, join the Seattle Contact Improvisation email group or Facebook Group. Cost: $5 – $8 sliding scale.
Partnering Technique with Leslie Krauss and Brandin Steffensen: Using techniques gleaned from choreography, composition, and improvisation we develop the strength and responsiveness to perform nuanced partnering work. How do we use gravity, the floor, stabilization, and lever/fulcrum systems to create and recreate surprising dynamic entanglements? We ask further, how can these efforts inform our understanding of relating to another body for the purpose of choreographic potential? Besides concentrating only on physical dancing and technique in class, we find our hearts really begins to tick when dancers integrate intention into each movement. What a movement actually is often pales in comparison to how a movement is done. We bring this concept to each class using various theatrical exercises as well.
Timeless Modern with Shirley Jenkins: For the 'Forever Dancing Spirit', Shirley designed her class after/during recovery from cancer, back surgery and hip replacement. Throughout her distinguished 36+ year dance career, Shirley has developed her own artistic voice, inspired by modern dance masters and the knowledge of somatics. Her movement is lyrical, rhythmic, romantic, sensual and musical. Attention is given to pelvic stabilization and core strengthening while she guides you through a well-crafted dance experience. This class is popular with artists who danced professionally for many years, or are returning to dance after many years of hiatus. The level is Intermediate with an advanced understanding of quality and form. All are welcome.
Beginning Ballet with Cait Wyler: Whether this is your first plie or you've danced since you could walk, this class is designed to reconnect you to the basics. Through traditional ballet exercises we will explore how to properly support the weight of the body to build strength and flexibility. A supportive environment and exciting combinations help you tackle new challenges to support your artistry! Kid friendly
Beginning Ballet with Kaitlin McCarthy: Come learn the fun and rewarding practice of ballet. Traditional and not-so-traditional ballet exercises combine for a thoughtful, anatomically-aware workout while increasing grace, coordination, posture, and strength. Working through imagery and sensation, the class will build a solid foundation in basic ballet steps as well as working with musicality and developing skills for learning choreography. The fun, supportive environment is perfect for the beginning dancer looking to tackle new steps, or the experienced looking to hone their technique. This class celebrates ballet's rich theatrical history with choreography that encourages a broad range of dramatic expression and unbridled, joyous dancing! Kid friendly
Intermediate Ballet with Kyle Johnson: This class is designed for intermediate levels dancers with a working knowledge of ballet, or for advanced dancers looking to further refine their ballet technique.

We dance to a variety of music-—classical, contemporary, solo instrumental, orchestral—and have a great time working on flexibility, strength, musicality, fluidity, phrasing, and, of course,the joy of moving! Kid friendly
Yoga with Sarah Foster: This class will spark a sense of curiosity and desire to delve deeper into your practice while also feeling like you are coming home. The Vinyasa practice Foster teaches has a strong dance like quality. The art and choreography of class is found in the transitions between poses.

Yoga with Kathleen Hunt: Yoga Flow builds strength, stamina and flexibility; combines Vinyasa (flowing movement sequences) with slow, sustained stretches, refinement of alignment in held poses, as well as breath awareness and mental focus. Yoga has been defined as 'Awareness in Action'. We are reminded to listen to our bodies and enjoy the evolution of becoming fully present in the here and now. All levels welcome.
Feldenkrais® Awareness Through Movement® with Mary Margaret Moore: In this Feldenkrais Method® group class, students engage their own somatic process of learning, by reconnecting to their natural abilities to move, think, and feel. Led by verbal instruction through a series of gentle movement sequences, students become aware of their neuromuscular habits and rigidities and learn to move in new ways. Learning to move with less effort makes daily life easier, and is an important key to overcoming limitations brought on by stress, misuse, injury, or illness. It is a practice that cultivates mental awareness and creativity. Musicians, actors, dancers and artists of all kinds can extend their abilities and enhance their creativity. Seniors enjoy using it to retain or regain their ability to move without strain or discomfort. Everyone from athletes to artists, attorneys to administrators can benefit from the Feldenkrais Method. If you know you would like a layer of padding or support between you and the floor when you lay, sit or stand, bring your own mat, pad or blanket with you.
Candlelit Yoga with Alyssa Yackley + Sarah Foster: Yoga means "to yoke" or to bring together. Rooted in the traditions of Hatha Yoga we experience our consciousness as dance between dark and light. This class is structured to seam together breath and movement, the mind and body, the subtle and expansive. A practice which aims to unite and converse with the polarities inside our being. It begins with a solar influenced power vinyasa flow, that softens and trickles into a lunar cooling of restoration and receptivity. Accompanied by the low glow of candles, a warm community and music.

So I just got the new funky tappits and was wondering if anybody had any tips to easily get the fondant out. Should I powder or grease the mold? Should I let my fondant/gumpaste dry before cutting and about how long?
Any tips would be appreciated so I don't have to use as much trial and error!
Check out Edna's tutorial. The tutorial can also be found of the thread link in my signature.
There is a great tutorial on using them on Youtube (don't think it was Edna but don't really remember). It certainly was well worth the six minutes or so to watch the tutorial before using them for the first time!
They're easy to use....let your fondant set up a bit and just lightly swipe your cornstarch dusting puff over the surface of the fondant so it has an invisible layer of cornstarch on it. Cut on a non-stick surface, scootch the cutter around to make sure you have clean cut edges, and tap it out. It's really quite easy.
I think this is the one. It's Aine2
Thank you guys so much. I watched Edna's video and will check out Aine's after dinner.
Keep the tips coming if you got em though!
