Alday Early Origins
Annandale, where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
Alday Spelling Variations
Alday Spelling Variations
Surnames that evolved in Scotland in the Middle Ages often appear under many spelling variations. These are due to the practice of spelling according to sound in the era before dictionaries had standardized the English language. Alday has appeared as Halliday, Haliday and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
The North American colonies beckoned, with their ample land and opportunity as their freedom from the persecution suffered by so many Clan families back home. Many Scots even fought against England in the American War of Independence to gain this freedom. Recently, clan societies have allowed the ancestors of these brave Scottish settlers to rediscover their familial roots. Among them:
Alday Settlers in United States in the 18th Century
Alday Settlers in Australia in the 19th Century

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Quarta saluti
Motto Translation: The fourth to health.

If you have any travel coming up in the near future that will take you from the Midwest or Central Time Zone to the Atlantic states of the Southeast, and you are not flying, then you are probably going to be passing through the state of Tennessee. Getting from those parts of the country to places like Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, or Virginia means driving either through the Appalachians or around them.
North Carolina has some Interstate roadway crossing the mountains, but these low-speed and winding roads are constantly in danger of rockslides and foggy weather. Virginia also has a freeway running through the mountains, but its northern route takes it towards Pittsburgh, and South Carolina has nothing cutting across its mountains.
Thus, the fastest and easiest way to get to the Southea...Read More

For the past month and five games the team of Bagatskis can't win in the Israeli super League, where he lost the lead and now occupies only the third place. Given three failures at the finish of the regular championship of the Euroleague, losing the series, Maccabi is eight matches. In the near future the Latvian mentors may be dismissed, writes Sportando.com.
The only luck Bagatskis in Maccabi this season — winning the Cup of Israel. But before the playoffs in the Superleague protracted series of failures cause concern to the fans of the team and leadership. Already called the names of four experts, who can take the place of the Latvian coach is Zvi Sherf, Sharon Drucker and Arik Shivek, but most closely in tel Aviv watching the current coach of Kaunas "Zalgiris" by Sarunas Jasikevicius.
Ainars Bagatskis headed Maccabi in the end of December last year, becoming the third coach of the most titled team in Israel this season. Bagatskis also heads the national team of Latvia

This is prolly the most emotional piece i will ever right. I'm like a die hard Kobe Bryant fan. I really am. I was there with Kobe when he won his first ring, I was there when he was crucified by the media for cheating on his wife. I was there when Kobe and Shaq broke up. I was there when Kobe won his ring after Shaq left. I was there to read Kobe's letter to basketball announcing his retirement.
You see I am not the only person feeling this way. Kendrick Lamar also payed homage to Mamba by releasing this video.
Watch it after the jump and be sure to watch Kobe's last final game tomorrow

Sometimes we're told that health professionals are unsure about suggesting families contact us, as they may find the information frightening. We don't think that's true.
Here are just a few comments we've received from families who did contact us:
"I've been following your wonderful organisation now for some months. It's been inspirational to read everyone's experiences and the support they have received from GBSS. My daughter is 32 weeks pregnant and has also been following you. When she mentioned about being tested for GBS to her midwife she was told that they didn't test as they are not reliable. From all the information that you give it is quite clear that this should be added to the routine screening that expectant mothers receive. A huge well done for all your hard work." Carole Lord
"My daughter had her second child almost five weeks ago and thanks to a phone call with you prior to the birth of her three year old son she was able to make good informed choices about her Strep B status. She had her second babe at UCH who were exemplary in their care of her including automatically seeing to it that she had an antibiotic drip during labour. A close friend has as a severely disabled grand-daughter as a result of Strep B infection at birth so we know how vital the work is that you do. We feel very blessed indeed to have healthy grandchildren and to know you are there campaigning." Sandy C, St Albans
"Although I was diagnosed in 2002, I remember only too well how little information and support there was from the NHS after they discovered I was a carrier of GBS (at a routine check for something else, none the less). It was my first pregnancy and a few weeks prior to being told I had GBS (at 30 weeks) I had read an article in a pregnancy magazine. Sadly, the outcome for the families featured in the said article was very bleak. It was with great thanks to stumbling upon this article that I learnt of GBSS. After being sent away after diagnosis armed with very little information, I/we were petrified of what the outcome may be. This is where you at GBSS came in. After a reassuring telephone conversation, you then provided me with a free and invaluable, information pack which I received soon after. I remain eternally grateful to you for sharing your knowledge of GBS with me and what I needed to be aware of. I could go on and on!" Janine Morgan-Brownhill, Mum to Bailey
"My son Joshua was diagnosed with Group B Strep a few days after he was born in September 2004. The Group B Strep Support charity was invaluable in providing me with support and information by way of leaflets and over the telephone both during and following what was an extremely distressing and stressful time. My family and I were, and remain, extremely grateful for everything that they did for us. I hope that their campaign to ensure that every pregnant woman in the UK is offered a reliable test for GBS receives both the attention and success that it deserves." Justine Withey
"A massive thank you. You were the only organisation that put my mind at ease after I found out I was carrying Strep B last year. If it hadn't been for the lady I spoke to on your helpline I would have spent the last 17 weeks of my pregnancy absolutely terrified as the midwives and consultants provided no positive feedback. My son is now almost 6 months old and gorgeous. I'll never be able to repay your kindness when I felt as if everything would go wrong." Sarah Jane New
"I just want to thank you for your prompt and informative reply. I've found the leaflet download really helpful. I just want to be armed with as much information as possible so my baby will be safe. Thank you again, GBSS is a great site for women who would otherwise struggle to understand what GBS is and how it can be managed. I'm so grateful there was someone willing to explain! I was given your web address by a Midwife – your site came highly recommended – and rightly so!" SB
"I found your website extremely helpful and our chat very encouraging yesterday and would just like to thank you for putting my mind at ease. In my first pregnancy I was told by a receptionist that I was a carrier of strep b and had to find my own information about it, but a lot was very scary. My labour was normal but very restricted I felt like I didn't have many choices. This time around I'm a lot more prepared." Kelly Fullman
"Your website really was the only place I could find comprehensive information all in one area – armed and informed I was then able to ask to see a consultant and start planning the care for my daughter in my second trimester. Thanks for being there for those of us who don't know where to turn at times." Vicki McCafferty

text: While various Glee performers or a well-edited Nicki Minaj might top the list of biggest role models or merely the most frequently covered artist of today's youth, it's nice to see that some responsible parents are teaching their children the classics. This version of "Rhythm Nation," by Katlyn Hicks, the littlest Janet Jackson fan we've ever seen, is light on lyrics or actual vocals, but the Universal Royalty Televised National Pageant contestant knows a thing or two about stomping. And sure, she might not have the same natural confidence as those British princess Ellen DeGeneres loves so much, but we're captivated by her demure glances and sheepish grin all the same. At least she's able to recognize when it's time for a well earned bow. A small case of stage fright never hurt anyone. What have you done today?

This is the day I look forward to most. The day where I get to share with the world my top book boyfriends of 2015. There are plenty. There always are. No matter how many books are read.
In no particular order . . .
Matthias from Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
Out of all the characters, he's the one who stole my heart. When I told Leigh he was my favorite character, she was surprised. She said she didn't get many people who chose him and I like that. I like that I'm the minority here. He's just so great. He's strong, intelligent, strong in his beliefs but he's also got a kind soul, he's loving and believe it or not, he's tender.
Seth from The Return by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I've loved Seth since the Covenant series. I love him even more. It was always about him from the moment he was introduced. Which is weird because I usually don't find myself interested in characters like him but there was just something about him that I loved. He's a bad boy, sure but he's really a big softy. You can only fool us for so long, Sethy. My cuddlebunny.
Chevy from Nowhere But Here by Katie McGarry
Cobalt/Riley from Rogue by Julie Kagawa
Rafe from The Heart of Betrayal by Mary E. Pearson
Swooning is such an understatement. I seriously need him to be real and need him to be mine.
Thorne from Winter by Marissa Meyer
I have loved him from the moment he was introduced. He took over Kai's spot in my heart for this series. He hasn't been replaced and he will ever be replaced.
Puck from The Iron Warrior by Julie Kagawa
I'm not finished this book yet but I will be by the end of the year. I needed to include him because this will be my last opportunity to have him on a list. He is, afterall, my all-time favorite book boyfriend so I will take any opportunity I can to gush about him.
Ezra from Illuminae by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff
He's sexy. He's hilarioius. So many times I've laughed outloud because of him. He's a real guy. I mean, not literally but I've met many guys like him. That makes him very realistic. Listen to him on audio. He's even sexier. I'm serious. That voice. *swoons*
Chaol from Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
My love for Chaol will never go away. No matter what. He could shit himself and I would still love him. Smell and all.
Montgomery from A Cold Legacy by Megan Shepherd
I've loved him all throughout this series and he's such a gentleman. I'm sad it's over but I'm happy to say my love for him will live on. What a gentle soul.
Who are your top book boyfriends from 2015?!

Trumpet in the Land
Written by Paul Green / Music by Frank Lewin
Trumpet in the Land, Ohio's premier and longest running outdoor theatre production, brings to life the tragic but inspiring story of David Zeisberger and his Christian Indian followers as they struggled to preserve their peaceful settlement despite the growing violence of the Revolutionary War.
The story begins in 1772 in the heart of the Ohio wilderness. Ziesberger, a Moravian minister has just arrived in the Ohio valley with dreams of building the first settlement in the wilderness, Schoenbrunn. Meanwhile, tempers between the British and Americans flair, eventually leading to the start of the Revolutionary War.
When the Revolutionary War breaks out, Zeisberger and his followers find themselves caught between the British at Fort Detroit and the Americans at Fort Pitt. By refusing to take sides in the struggle, Zeisberger and his people incur the wrath of both warring parties, eventually leading to the brutal massacre of 96 Christian Indians at Gnadenhutten in 1782 by a band of American militiamen. President Teddy Roosevelt, a noted historian, called the event "a stain on the frontier character that time cannot wash away."
The performance is full of unforgettable historical characters including Simon Girty, a conniving border renegade who agitated for all-out war in the region; Captain Pipe, a young warrior chief whose hatred of all white men for the killing of his father added to the dangers facing the missionaries; and John Heckewelder, one of the first explorers of the "Ohio country."
Written by Pulitzer prize-winning playwright Paul Green, Trumpet in the Land is set in the very hills once traveled by those portrayed in the show and handpicked by the author. Watch the warm summer nights come alive with beautiful horses, brilliant fire dances, authentic looking costumes, fiery battle pyrotechnics and a beautiful natural setting.

by A.R. Gurney
Andrew and Melissa are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank-you notes and summer camp postcards, and continues through the boarding school and college years. While Andy is off at war Melissa marries, but her attachment to Andy remains strong and she continues to keep in touch. Eventually she and Andy do become involved in a brief affair, but it is really too late. However, Andy's last letter, written to Melissa's mother after her untimely death, makes it eloquently clear how much they really meant, and gave to each other over the years - physically apart, but spiritually as close as only true lovers can be.

Parrikar: HAL may acquire EDC's GAAL
COLVA/PANAJI: Promising to generate employment for Goans, defence minister Manohar Parrikar on Friday hinted that negotiations with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to take over Goa Auto Accessories Limited (GAAL) were in the final stages of completion. Defence ministry sources said Parrikar had convinced French aerospace firm Safran to partner HAL and overhaul helicopter engines in Goa under the 50% defence offset clause in the $8.8 billion deal to purchase 36 Rafale fighter jets.
Parrikar was speaking at the launch function of the Jyotirmay scheme at Margao. He went on to say that he took the cue from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's make in India programme to convince HAL to acquire GAAL's plant at Honda, Satteri and added that the French company would overhaul old helicopters that have completed 600 to 1500 hours of flying hours to make them air worthy again.
Once the engines are overhauled, the choppers will have to be certified by HAL before being deployed back in service. "All this activity would be carried out in Goa, which will create employment in the state," Parrikar said.
GAAL, a subsidiary of the economic development corporation (EDC) which manufactured automobile components for Tata Motors Limited, was shut down in 2015 after EDC chose to exit the running of companies and focus on its core task of providing finance. Initially, Goa Shipyard along with Bharat Electricals and Bharat Dynamics had showed interest in GAAL's factory, which included sheet metal machinery and equipment.
EDC Chairman Sidharth Kuncalienker confirmed that talks were in the final stages with HAL to take over EDC's 100% stake. "Discussions began three to four months ago and are a continuous process. They will only repair engines," Kuncalienker said.
French company Safran is the company behind the M88 engine in the Rafale fighter jet and the Shakti engine for India's advanced light helicopters. Safran's Shakti engine powers the twin-engine Dhruv and multi-role Light Combat Helicopter.
Parrikar emphasized that in another few months employment in the state would increase as his ministry had worked out a plan whereby helicopters would be overhauled in Goa and for this manpower will be required.
Initially, he said, around 1,000 helicopters will be repaired and the number will steadily rise to 5,000 in the coming years and this would be a good employment opportunity for Goan youth.
Parrikar said his government is also open to other companies coming forward to take up this venture, but the plant will have to be set up in Goa.

Theater Pop Up Card
This theater pop up card is a basic origamic architecture design prettied up with some texture fills.
(The pictures are not the best: I was in a time crunch to finish them in time for the cast party. )
The cast picture is slotted through the stage so it stands out a bit from the background.

Unanswered: Issue with file lock (details inside)
Ok so I have a database that is a front end for the main database on a shared server drive. The original was written in VBA of course and its Access 2003 and its been used now for about 8 years without incident (no more than normal)
Recently, there has been a lock file on the backend database created by different users (not a single user issue). I end their MSACCESS process and reboot their machine, and the lock remains in the network drive. So I start digging in deeper and after several restores later, it seems that the database is closing faster than the queries can finish updating the database. (the users are closing ACCESS with the red x)
Normally I would add some error catching to the "on exit" and "close" procedures but I wanted to see if anyone had some ideas or examples that they would be willing to share.
After this next restore, I will purge about 5years worth of data to see if that helps. Im assuming that the size of the database is making the update queries take too long and Access is closing before it can finish the updates. (not sure if my theory is correct but thats what all the evidence points to)
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Rebooting the server is only a temporary fix, I want to find something or some error handleing procedure that will prevent this from happening when they close the database.

Both are located on the H drive for backup purposes. The front end is located on each machine as well. Its not the front end that is locking up, it is the back end that the front end updates. But I do understand that it could still be the front end that is causing the issue.
I did not write this database and there's quite a bit of unnecessary stuff, like placeholder tables for one value (10 of them) instead of making one for all ten. It will take me at least a month to re-write it. Got spoiled by having programmers working for me that I havent actually done any myself for about 3 years now, so Im really rusty. Im not seeing any close connection error handeling that would prevent the program from closing until the connection is closed or anything that would prevent an update if the program is closed improperly.
Just looking for ideas on a catch all that would make sure the connections are closed before access can close (even from the red x)

1. Create a form (name: Frm_DbCloseChecker)
2. Paste this code in its class module:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Me.Move 0, 0, 0, 0 ' Form becomes invisible. ' ' If there was already a startup form defined ' for the database, open it here ' ' e.g. DoCmd.OpenForm <Startup Form>, <Options> ' End Sub Private Sub Form_Close() ' Place the code that must be executed ' every time the database is closed here. End Sub
4. If there is no startup form but an Autoexec macro exists in the database, edit it and open the form Frm_DbCloseChecker there before performing any other action.Have a nice day!

Apparently, putting everyone in Medicare (i.e., creating a universal system like Canada's) leads to worse results than having only some people in Medicare (i.e., having a mixed public/private system), says John C. Goodman, president of the National Center for Policy Analysis.
For example, in a National Bureau of Economic Research study, David and June O'Neill draw on a large U.S./Canadian patient survey to show that:
- The percent of middle-aged Canadian women who have never had a mammogram is double the U.S. rate.
- The percent of Canadian women who have never had a pap smear is triple the U.S. rate.
- More than 8 in 10 Canadian men have never had a PSA test, compared with less than half of U.S. men.
- More than 9 in 10 Canadians have never had a colonoscopy, compared with 7 in 10 in the United States.
These differences in screening may explain why U.S. cancer patients do better than their Canadian counterparts, says Goodman. For example:
- The mortality rate for breast cancer is 25 percent higher in Canada.
- The mortality rate for prostate cancer is 18 percent higher in Canada.
- The mortality rate for colorectal cancer among Canadian men and women is about 13 percent higher than in the United States.
Amazingly, says Goodman, there are quite a few Canadians who are not being treated for conditions that clearly require a doctor's attention:
- Among senior citizens, the fraction of Canadians with asthma, hypertension, and diabetes who are not getting care is twice the rate in the United States.
- The fraction of Canadian seniors with coronary heart disease who are not being treated is nearly three times the U.S. rate.

Sometimes something completely outrageous occurs, provoking righteous indignation and justifiable challenges to narrow minded prejudices. A prime example of this arose last week, in the shape of Asda's promotion of a blood-soaked "Mental Patient" Halloween costume.
After a hasty withdrawal, Asda made a tidy donation to Mind; and the story turned attentions towards similar products sold by Amazon and Tesco. An indignant mental health campaigner gave an impassioned and well reasoned response on The Today Programme, highlighting how such contorted representations simply reinforce stigmatisation of those with mental health concerns.
One thing I found strange about all this was my reaction. This sort of thing lacks any justification, but any anger I felt wasn't born of the imagery itself, rather the astonishing levels of incompetence which allowed the product to exist in the first place. Numerous departments had to sign off on this, and at no point did anyone think 'Wait a minute, some people may find this offensive.' They wouldn't have given the green light to some kind of Bongo Bongo tribal outfit, nor any kind of weird stereotypical, inflatable "gay best friend."
Oh wait, they absolutely did.
I try not to dwell on it too much, but as time passes and I gain new insights about who and what I am – and the places in the world they'll take me – I find increasing validity in the notion that the "normal" world is what's actually insane. I'm not even sure anger is the right word for how I feel about this. Disbelief, incredulity are perhaps more accurate.
This level of casual sanism has to be challenged and excised from our culture. One thing that might help is if people open their eyes and think for one goddamn minute. There is no single part of this story which couldn't have been avoided, had those concerned engaged the critical faculties gifted to sturgeon.

As November looms and major decisions present themselves to the voting public, nine states will have the opportunity to legalize marijuana in some way.
NBC News reports that Arizona, California, Maine, Massachusetts and Nevada will be deciding whether to legalize recreational use of marijuana.
Arkansas, Florida, Montana and North Dakota will will be making a similar decision but the plant's use would be limited to medical purposes for these states.
Georgia will not be voting on either.
The ballot items come as a nationwide Pew study shows rising support for marijuana with 57 percent saying it should be made legal compared to 32 percent a decade before.
Colorado and Washington both lead the country in legalizing the drug and their actions may have played some role in the changing opinions.
But detractors such as Carla Lowe of Citizens Against Legalizing Marijuana still point to increased use among children who turn to drugs, gangs and crime according to NBC News.
The federal government also refuses to drop pot out of its classification as a Schedule I illegal substance.

Case Study
An Integrated Procurement Approach
Client Situation
Our client was a consumer finance company with a dominant position in its chosen niche. Headcount was tightly managed, and the company's efficiency ratio was in the top quartile. Senior management hired Bridge to bring the same discipline and results to purchased goods and services as the company had already achieved in staffing levels and productivity.
The company had no formal procurement function when we began our work, which started with an opportunity assessment focused on external spend. We quickly identified several major savings opportunities and laid out a plan for development of a "best-practice" procurement organization with formal strategic sourcing, demand management, vendor management, and transaction processing programs and processes. In addition, we developed a business case for an e-procurement technology platform to help support and institutionalize these processes and accelerate savings to the bottom-line. Over the course of the project, we worked closely with our client to build a procurement team and source a number of categories where savings proved substantial.
We divided the work into three major streams of activity. The first was a diagnostic to quantify the opportunity and build a road map for improvement. The second was the speed sourcing of a number of high potential categories. The third work stream was the build out of a procurement organization and infrastructure capable of independently managing all third-party spend once we had completed our work. Specific activities included:
- Strategic sourcing of: 1) IT-related categories including PCs and servers, mainframes, data and voice networks, storage, and production print; 2) office and administration goods and services such as express mail, supplies, temporary labor, postage and travel; 3) real estate and related services such as furniture, maintenance, security, utilities, lease management and administration; and 4) marketing, including database services, commercial and financial print, direct mail, telemarketing, promotional items, and credit bureaus;Present value of reserves at end of production cycle
- Developed job descriptions, policies, and training programs for sourcing and negotiation. Reengineered procurement operational processes. Conducted hands-on training of procurement staff in each step of the procurement process, from needs specification and market analysis to negotiations and savings tracking, as they led specific category sourcing efforts;
- Evaluated various e-procurement applications for fit with client's needs, negotiating a deal that produced savings for the company in very first year; and
- Developed ongoing demand, vendor and contract management programs.
The program produced savings of over 12 percent of the spend evaluated in the first year, amounting to several tens of millions of dollars. Tracking of savings against estimates was conducted at the end of each category sourcing effort, and future budgets were lowered to reflect these savings by business unit and cost center. The decision as to how best to make use of savings was controlled at the corporate level. Our client now has a small procurement organization that is considered among the best-in-class by peer financial services companies. The e-procurement system quickly paid for itself by, among other things, improving the way miscellaneous purchases were handled. The electronic network used in conjunction with the application is being highly leveraged. Lastly, compliance with purchase agreements and preferred vendor arrangements has improved to over 95 percent of the spend managed, in turn is over 80 percent of total third-party expenses.

In the Triumphant Return Department, first-time All-Star John Tavares' four-point game (two goals, two assists) Tuesday night in Raleigh, N.C., served as a nice way for the Islanders to begin the season's second half.
It capped Tavares' hot January, during which he led the league in scoring (nine goals, 13 assists), picked up a point in 12 of 13 games, scored four game-winning goals and was named the NHL's top star of the month. And, it earned Tavares a day off from practice Wednesday, given that he has "played a lot of hockey and had a lot of travel recently," coach Jack Capuano said.
So now, to the Keeping Up With the Leaders Department. While the Islanders' top six forwards, paced by Tavares, "are doing offensively what they need to do," Capuano said, "now, during this stretch, we have to find a way for other guys to score some goals, put points on the board. We have to get some secondary scoring."
And, by doing so, the Islanders (20-22-7) might be able to gain ground on the three teams ahead of them pushing for the last playoff spot in the conference.
Capuano has not done an unusual amount of line-shuffling. The most obvious personnel change, moving Kyle Okposo onto the Tavares line in place of P.A. Parenteau, has worked out well for both players.
"Those guys have played well," Capuano said. "I've said before, we can put P.A. pretty much anywhere we want. He's a gritty guy. He loves to compete and he gets the job done for us. Others have played well, too. But, to me, they pass up opportunities. You look at video and talk to them but, sometimes, they can't be playmakers all the time. They've got to think, 'shot,' because to score goals in this league, a lot of times it's the second and third opportunity.
"We stress constantly to get pucks and bodies to the net."
Notes & quotes:Goalie Kevin Poulin, called up from Bridgeport to start Tuesday's game because "he had played well and seen a lot of pucks," Capuano said, while the rest of the Islanders were on their all-star break, was returned to the Connecticut affiliate Wednesday. Forward Rhett Rakhshani, also a minor-league call-up, remained with the team. Injured forward Marty Reasoner (hand) practiced but his availability remains day-to-day.

Angie from Fort Collins, Colorado writes,
will nuvan prostrips work in extreme cold?
I have used books stored in bags in the storage shed with nuvan prostrips to kill anything that may be in/on them. The temperature is -15 with -31 wind chill. Will the strips still work in the cold?
The Nuvan Pro Strips labeled does not state any warnings on using this product in extreme cold or hot temperatures, so therefore we recommend contacting Amvac directly at 1-323-264-3910 for clarification with your specific situation.

Brian took the 120-hour online TEFL course from ITTT so he could teach English abroad. In this TEFL review he tells us that as well as the many topics covered by the course he appreciated the flexibility that allowed him to complete it at his own pace.
This is what one of our TEFL graduates feels he has gained from the course, or a part of it, and how he plans to put into action what he has learned.
Unit 7 talked about the ways of teaching vocabulary, introducing grammar structures and teaching language functions. The most common way to teach vocabulary is using pictures. Visual material and mimes/action help the class/students become more interested in learning. There are different ways to explain a lesson. The teacher can use the 'straight arrow', 'patchwork' and 'boomerang' type lesson.

The lesson plan assessment was challenging, because as it was not clear how much detail was required, however after my first attempt was rejected, I did receive a lot of guidance from an online tutor, regarding what needed to be included.

BYU football: Cougars claim their mood, motivation better this year
Fiesta BowlDec. 9, 2009 8:53 a.m.
I think it's a blowout for TCU. The Frogs have been impressive with a much more demanding schedule. Yes, Boise beat Oregon at home on the nauseating blue turf but that was not the same Oregon team that's going to the Rose Bowl. I believe TCU (and MWC) will dominate.....then invite BSU to join the family.
To The Teaching guyDec. 8, 2009 10:39 p.m.
Yeah, Right!!!!!!
Oh, Brother.Dec. 8, 2009 8:27 p.m.
Only a handful of practices? Sounds like the coaches were deflated, too.
Happily, the Cougars (and their coaches) have come a long way since then. I fully expect a better effort this time around.
Nice work, Bronco. Seriously.
Good matchupDec. 8, 2009 7:44 p.m.
This board has some of the silliest comments I have ever seen. Are you all still in grade school?
Oregon State is a good team. Riley is a class act coach. It's great to have two top 20 teams. It's a better matchup than most bowls. BYU beware. I'm looking forward to it.
#9 rated bowlDec. 8, 2009 7:36 p.m.
The Las Vegas bowl is the #9 rated bowl according to SI. That's pretty good.
Pac10FanDec. 8, 2009 7:28 p.m.
Oregon State 31 BYU 13 is my Las Vegas Bowl Prediction. Speed will be a factor that the Cougars will not handle well. I also forsee a few INT's from Hall that will allow the Beavers to turn this into a route early. Coug Fans there is always 2010.

re:Re: What are you TEACHING????Dec. 8, 2009 6:57 p.m.
For all of you accusing me of being a Ute fan, I am not. I am a BYU graduate, twice. I am not a BYU Freshman, but I have taught undergraduates at BYU.
If I were a Ute fan I wouldn't be calling for elevated conduct by BYU's coaches, administration and players, I would be making fun of it. I don't need to demean them, that is "reduce in worth or character":
The administration demeans the players and university by not requiring a higher level of conduct.
Coach Mendenhall demeans them by making excuses.

By the way, it is YOU ARE not a BYU Grad, not your.
Apparently YOU ARE the one who is not a BYU Grad.
re:PP | 10:44 a.m. Dec. 8, 2009Dec. 8, 2009 6:46 p.m.
Undergraduate and graduate, my friend, which is why I am disappointed in:
* the pre-season bragging at BYU (remember "the best offensive line ever at BYU, and maybe the best in the country" that didn't send a single player to the NFL?)
* the post loss excuses ("The turf kept coming up." "We were sad that we lost to Utah.")
* the disdain for their own fans, ("They just have a low-level of understanding,")
* the hate of other's fans
* and the WHINING.
Do you really think Max, Bronco, Jan and the boys are the first BYU team to experience bad treatment?
Shut up and play.
I still think BYU's first choice is the better, and classier, coach.
AnonymousDec. 8, 2009 6:41 p.m.
I think it is sad and pathetic that any team would play worse and be less motivated about a bowl game just because their season didn't turn out like they expected. But that will happen to a few teams this year . Good thing it doesn't sound like this is the case with BYU this year.
Depending on what BYU team shows up, I think it will either be 35-27 for BYU or 42-14 for OSU. (yes, there has been that much variability in how BYU has played this year).
Oh No!Dec. 8, 2009 4:53 p.m.
Can I read these stupid blogs without someone bringing up religion? I enjoy all the banter that goes back and forth, as a BYU fan I think Utah has done a great job in what was suppose to be a rebuilding year espically when playing on BYU's home field and giving the cougars all that they could handle and then getting a bowl bid that's quite remarkable. BYU will be in a rebuilding year some what next year(espically if Unga leaves) and I personally doubt that they will do as well, I think that Riley Nelson could be a good QB but I think think they will look at the new top QB they will have next year and go with him, and I cant see them doing that well if that happens. I guess I'm just giving props where they are due, I think Kyle has built a heck of a program with the players that he gets.
OSU's Speed...Dec. 8, 2009 4:27 p.m.
OSU is a talented football team that can put points on the board. This game will come down to the Y's ability to avoid being beaten over the top. I don't think BYU and that pathetic secondary will keep OSU from scoring points. The Utah Freshman missed 4-5 TD's in the BYU game by over-throwing receivers who had atleast two steps on coverage. The OSU QB wont miss! BYU will have to get pressure from their front 4 becasue sending more will leave those Corners on an island. If I were BYU's CB/S I would practice "phase" coverage and your back-pedal techniques, you are going to need it.

Poor excuse for not beating Arizona on your home and anual bowl game.
Both MotivatedDec. 8, 2009 3:32 p.m.
Both teams will be motivated. these are 2 highly ranked teams trying to show that they are among the best in the nation. USC may not be movitated after placing 5th in the PAC 10. Cal may not be motivated with their injuries and the old fashoned whipping they recieved from Washington, but Oregon St. isn't a traditional powerhouse, so 2nd in the Pac 10 doesn't mean utter failure. Also, a win here could even push them in or close to the top 10.
This will be a big game.
BYU 38 Oregon St 34
Hall 320yds passing
Unga 120 yds rushing
Cranfeld 320 yds passing
Rodgers 120yds rushing.
The difference will be that Cranfeld will be sacked 3-4 times.
ObsessionDec. 8, 2009 3:21 p.m.
It is clear by all of the u fan comments that they really do have an Obsession with all things BYU. It must be depressing to want your rival to lose every game only to see them be successful 10 times this year. I will take four 10 win seasons and another top 25 ranking at the end of this season no matter if we win or lose. If we beat Oregon St we finsih close to the top 10 which is respectable regardless of blue or red glasses.
Re:I love Utes fansDec. 8, 2009 2:58 p.m.
well, thank you for loving us. We love you back.
We also love our Utes and that...
We are happy with 9-3 (2 losses to BCS teams and another to flukey play) in a year that we start freshman QB.
We are happy that we still have Kyle as our coach.
We are happy that Bronco's still the coach at BYU.
We are happy that our team made BCS twice since 2004, once with our current coach and will be back there again in 2010.
Re OSU spells trouble for YDec. 8, 2009 2:47 p.m.
Just like they had trouble handling Utah's speed, right?
Wait a minute. . .
RobyuukiDec. 8, 2009 2:34 p.m.
With Max Hall coming off of a 12 of 32 127 yrd performance. And the defence allowing Utah back in the game in the 4th quarter, they have a lot to change and fix before anyone can expect a win. The cougars and fans better brace theirselves for another bowl loss.
Funny commentsDec. 8, 2009 2:23 p.m.
I don't know who is more classless--Ute fans or Ute fans who pose as BYU fans on this board.
The better team won the rivalry game this year. Keep up with the classless comments all year.
BYU has a good chance of beating Oregon State in the Las Vegas bowl and they will return to being the class of the MWC, simply because TCU faces Boise State, again. A TCU win this year does little or nothing for the MWC, and Utah is likely to lose to Cal.
Re: What are you teaching?Dec. 8, 2009 2:04 p.m.
I have a hard time even believing that you are a BYU fan and I wouldn't worry too much about having a son that would be recruited by Mendenhall/BYU... I wouldn't be surprise if you are the same geek who sets near us and every year stands up and yells' "give the ball to Stahlei".. (never has figured out that he's no longer playing.) I think Mendenhall is a good coach and teacher/example... Every time he opens his mouth you ute fans try to mix up his words. He never will be able to say anything that won't be challenged by you utes. Thats fine say what you want its expected. You are the enemy.
Go Coogs .... go TCU..... oh yea, Go utes..........
bakerbDec. 8, 2009 2:03 p.m.
I realize that the Utah Fans that are contributing to this Forum are the EXTREME minority, but the obsession with BYU displayed in these comments is laughable.
The Utah game is HISTORY. BYU won!!! It may have been lucky. It may have been a fluke. Utah may have better Athletes (Speed Kills - one of my favorites). Utah may have better Coaches. Regardless, BYU gets the W.
Hopefully, BYU can build some momentum from the victory over Utah and play a solid game against a TOUGH Opponent in Oregon State in the Vegas Bowl.
Hopefully, Utah can recover from their close loss to BYU and find motivation to beat a decent Cal Team. I would advise the Utah Fans to focus on the upcoming game. BYU and Max Hall are old news.
Lastly, TCU and BSU got the shaft. Hopefully, TCU can make a statement.
Analagous situationDec. 8, 2009 1:54 p.m.
38-8 (with the lone score for Oregon coming in the 4th quarter when the outcome was already decided) vs. 31-21 where BYU had the lead until midway through the 3rd quarter. I would say the two are very different, i.e. not analagous.
I think motivation is the excuse, but the real reason behind the loss to Zona last year: the defense was not good. Call it motivation if you like, Jan, but you and your boys on D sucked last year. The O did enough to win the Vegas Bowl, the D did not. This year the D is better. Use motivation as the word, but really, the quality of the product is just higher this year.
Re:I love Ute fans! | 12:09 p.mDec. 8, 2009 1:34 p.m.
But sir, we love our Utes and...
We are very happy with 9-3 in a year that we start freshman QB.
We are very happy that BYU did not make BCS again -yet for another year.
We are very happy we still have Kyle as a coach.
We are very happy that BYU still has Bronco as its coach.
(we are only sad that Maxi has no chance to return to our stadium next year so that we can meet, greet and send him off properly in style)
R: BYU reform still needed @11:1Dec. 8, 2009 1:28 p.m.
Your logic is very elementary --as in 2nd grade.
Bottom line (and result) is that Utah got it done (ie won when it needed) to go to (and won) BCS bowl game.
And, after all excuses, BYU did not get it done and still chases after BCS bowl game.
--BYU did not get it done at home vs average FSU and then TCU this year (2 blown out losses)
--BYU did not get it done in 2008 vs TCU and the mighty BCS-bound Utes.
RESPECTDec. 8, 2009 1:03 p.m.
ARIZONA surprised a BYU team that obviously had no respect for them.
The COUGARS surprised an OKLAHOMA team who obviously had little respect for BYU.
Among the many points, on the agenda driving the BEAVERS motivation, one bullet to be considered is the fact that a 10-2 MWC second place team looks at OSU as just another speed-bump on their way to an 11-2 season.
OSU spells trouble for YDec. 8, 2009 1:01 p.m.
OSU is full of speed - trouble for BYU. BYU doesn't deal with speed well. Also, OSU has a good passing QB. Ouch!!! Another thorn in BYU's side. Bronco better learn to "EXECUTE" in this bowl game unlike last year. Execute is Bronco's favorite word (or excuse after a loss) so my hope for Bronco is being your preparation early so you can actually EXECUTE!!!

BYU may be getting a stronger opponent in the Las Vegas bowl than TCU will see in Tempe.
Re: What are you TEACHING?????Dec. 8, 2009 12:39 p.m.
Isn't agency wonderful? You don't have to send a son anywhere to play in anything.
But you apparently HAVE to demean BYU and its football program. Why would BYU want a son who learns that from a parent's knee?
I love Ute fans!Dec. 8, 2009 12:09 p.m.
I love you Ute fans! Thank you for always having something to say about BYU! It's so nice to see that you care so much about the Cougars! We should have a Ute fan appreciation day at LaVell Edwards Stadium! Maybe for the USU game, huh? Then we can all get together and sing Kumbaya.
Seriously, though, get over the hate and cheer your team on. I know I rooted for the Utes in both of their BCS games, despite being green with envy. So, love your team and be happy!
Randall StevensDec. 8, 2009 11:24 a.m.
Careful now!! Both BYU and Utah may end up losing their bowl games. Let's hope we don't have Pac-10 refs.
Let's hope the Cougs & Utes prepare and play as if Oklahoma & Alabama were the opponents.
Not an analogous situation???Dec. 8, 2009 11:22 a.m.
How so? Please explain. Here are some "facts" for you to ponder.
Oregon was gunning for a Rose Bowl in 2006, caved, and was relegated to the Las Vegas Bowl against who they felt was an inferior Mountain West team. After losing to BYU, BYU fans became offended at the thought that just maybe Oregon didn't try very hard because it didn't want to be there.
BYU was gunning for a BCS game in 2008, caved, and was relegated to the Las Vegas Bowl against who they felt was an inferior middle-of-the-road Pac-10 team. After losing to Arizona, BYU fans expect people to believe that last year was just because the team wasn't motivated?
Hmmm ... am I missing something here are is your brain just not computing "the facts"?

Re: BYU reform still neededDec. 8, 2009 11:13 a.m.
Oh, you Ute fans. The only thing that's needed is for the Little Brothers to actually study and understand college football.
BYU went 14-1 in 1996 and would have qualified for a BCS bowl under current regulations. They also beat Kansas State in the Cotton Bowl on New Year's Day in 1997.
In 2006, the Cougars were only a last-second field goal and an overtime loss -- 10 points total, both on the road -- from an undefeated, BCS-qualifying season.
By contrast, in 2008 the Utes were only 6 points and two missed field goals away from a two-loss season.
Not to mention this year the Utes finished at 3rd place in the MWC for the fourth time in the past five years.
I wouldn't start calling your team a dynasty just yet, especially since the Utes have had a very hard time against good teams on the road this year and still have a game to go against California.
A 9-4 season is still possible, which based on the past 20 years is about what you can normally expect from Utah.
RubenDec. 8, 2009 11:09 a.m.
I hope BYU is smart enough to use all of their practices for the bowl game. Not to would be very foolish. Winning every game is important, especially BCS teams. In the future I hope we can get some games against the likes of Notre Dame, Penn State, Ole Miss, USC, Miami, Boston College, Georgia Tech, Oklahoma, etc. I think all of BYU's nonconference game should be against BCS teams. Thanks BYU for good football the last 5 years. Good luch in the bowl game.
LaughDec. 8, 2009 11:00 a.m.
So occasionally I read comments just for laughs. Reading some of these today, make it clear that some of you on both sides need to get lives.
Agree with 36-3Dec. 8, 2009 10:51 a.m.
Right. If BYU doesn't start the game fired up and well prepared, they will get their butts kicked by an tough, balanced team.

Bob in BoiseDec. 8, 2009 10:40 a.m.
I am a big BYU fan, but this article is not discouraging. Who gave BYU a chance at beating Oklahoma at the time they played them? You can say the team has been up and down this year despite the record of 10-2. Who would have thought they would beat New Mexico by only five points? The bottom line is they have one more game to play, and we can expect they will put forth their best efforts to win.
As for the BCS and NC stuff, it takes winning and some amount of luck to make it to the top. The only reason BYU has not played in a BCS bowl to this point is because of when they have had their winning streaks. It was just last year that BYU had a 16 game winning streak that ended in an October loss to TCU. Sixteen is more than enough to get you to a BCS game. I seem to recall two consective seasons where BYU did not lose a conference game. This was something that never happened during the Edwards era. Add four consecutive 10 wins seasons to that. The future is bright for BYU football.

To Byu reformDec. 8, 2009 10:26 a.m.
So you are clear. Either talk about the present or talk about it all. I would focus on your bowl against an unranked team. Recent past should be painful for you. Anything before this year does not include a mythical, magical, National Championship.
You will just have to trust me on this - the feeling of winning a National Championship does not compare to being one of 8 teams in a BCS bowl. BCS bowls are to be commended - they are not a National Championship.
JohnDec. 8, 2009 9:55 a.m.
How come byu is not suing the BCS this year?.... Was is not byu that threatened to sue the BCS when they were not awarded a bid in 2001?... Maybe if they cry more the BCS will finally hear byu?
What are you TEACHING?????Dec. 8, 2009 9:31 a.m.
I am more disappointed in Coach Mendenhall every week.
"We were down because of the loss to Utah, so we didn't use all our practices and didn't play hard."
The best cure for disappointment is HARD WORK and success at the next thing you do. It isn't whining and sulking and taking days off! It isn't making excuses.
Max Hall spouts off about hate, and Mendenhall doesn't comment for 9 days. People talk about BYU being the "Lord's University." Well, apparently Mendenhall, Holmoe and Samuelson have very different standards than Jesus, who preached against hate and anger.
I'm a BYU grad, but if I had a boy who was being recruited by BYU, I'd advise against him playing for that coach and that team. I'd want him to play for someone who actually teaches the thing Bronco preaches about on the intro to the coach show on KSL.
BYU BlueDec. 8, 2009 9:17 a.m.
I am a big BYU fan, but this article is discouraging. Arizona handily beat BYU in last year's Las Vegas Bowl, and now we are talking about how we were discouraged by not being able to play a better team? We sound like Alabama after its loss to Utah. "We were better, we just didn't get up for the game." Fact is, we played a better team and got beat. So did Alabama. Better teams win games. I hope we are up for this game this year, and then some - no excluses. Otherwise, expect the same result.
re: reform still neededDec. 8, 2009 8:50 a.m.
Say what you want Ute fans, but you went from 2nd best in the country (I have no problem admitting that) to 3rd best in the Mountain West.
That is not a trait of a consistent national team.
CalCougDec. 8, 2009 8:41 a.m.
Hey, if it hadn't been for BYU and a few others who rose out of obscurity to tweak the noses of the elite NCAA establishment in the old 'system', there wouldn't even have been a BCS to falsely inflate the pride of some. Kudos to Utah and others to take advantage of it and expose the bias of the BCS, but no more credit than to the pioneers who did the same thing under their circumstances. If it hadn't been for the likes of BYU, would anyone be paying attention to Utah and Boise St. now? Utah wouldn't matter as much if it didn't sometimes beat BYU. Your passion to discredit BYU only exposes the insecurity of your own claims.
BYU in TucsonDec. 8, 2009 8:30 a.m.
"Looking foward to playing a good team this year" They played a good team last year. Last year I worked 12 hours all night then drove 8 hours to Vegas I'm diabetic, 40 years old and still had more energy than the Cougars. Now they say they're excited so we'll go again I guess. My wife and are excited to go to the Holiday bowl though. I'm so mad about TCU BOISE we may skip driving 2 hours to Pheonix. Also the ESPN bowl special was lame, they didn't even mention the Vegas bowl. 2 ranked teams ain't bad. I hope BYU fans are more excited this year and can muster some crowd noise.
BYU reform still neededDec. 8, 2009 7:19 a.m.
No question about it.
Even though BYU won their "BCS bowl game", 26-23, this team still needs a new direction. Or they will keep chasing the January BCS games forever.
Say what you want,BYU fans, but Utah and TCU will have their recent (less than a decade) BCS bowl games/win to show off. BYU has none except a quarter-century old NC (with an asterisk) that fans will bring up whenever Utah fans talk about their 2 BCS wins.
36-3Dec. 8, 2009 7:18 a.m.
The Cougs better come ready to play, because the Beavers were a play or two from going to the Rose Bowl. This isn't some rogue, 5th place team in the Pac-10.

So BYU can criticize those who say Oregon just wasn't motivated in 2006, but then turn around and play the same card for last year?

To many in the metro, snow blows. The frosty weather and ice are just annoyances to suffer on the way to the mailbox and an extra irritation to survive on the drive to work.
But to some, like Mary and Tom Dempsey, crisp air and packed powder mean one thing: sledding.
Although Tom Dempsey said his "glory days" of sledding are in the past and center around memories of the much deeper drifts of his native Wisconsin, the Oklahoma City couple are doing everything they can to pass on the wholesome winter activity to their 9-year-old son, Brady.
"There's just nothing better," Tom Dempsey said, watching his son trudge up an icy hill at Douglas Park, near N.W. 45th Street and N. Walker Avenue. "Getting outside, sliding down a hill like a maniac "¦ crashing, laughing. It's good for kids and better than them sitting in the house."
The bowl-shaped Douglas Park has been touted as one of the best sledding spots in OKC. Will Rogers Park, 3400 N. Portland, is another metro sledding mecca, and features large, wide hills usually reserved for Frisbee golf.
While mountains of fluffy snow always make for good sledding in Wisconsin, Mary Dempsey said Oklahoma's winter weather, which usually comes as ice, can make for even better " and faster " sledding action.
"It's not as pretty to look at, but you can really get going on the ice," she said. "It also hurts more when you fall, but that's part of the fun." "Joe Wertz

Study finds link between memory loss in seniors and silent strokes
Alan Wu
December 29, 2011
Understanding neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease or dementia is crucial to helping sufferers in the future. A recent study published in the journal Neurology looked to find if seniors who suffer from silent strokes, or small spots of dead brain cells, are more likely to have memory loss compared to elderly people who haven't had a stroke.
To test this, researchers recruited 658 people over the age of 65 without dementia, with each undergoing MRI brain scans. Participants then took part in tests that measured their memory, language, speed at understanding information and visual perception. From the scan results, researchers noticed that 174 seniors suffered from silent strokes. Those participants also scored "somewhat" worse on memory tests during the study.
Although these answers aren't concrete, more testing will be done to see if there is actually a stronger connection.
Seniors living alone have no time to prepare for a stroke, heart attack or even a fall. Many times these instances leave them vulnerable and unable to call for assistance. Because of this, elderly people living alone may want to install senior alert systems into their houses as these wearable devices call for help with just a push of a button.

Seventeen years ago, my daughter sat with my parents in the Solvay High School auditorium as I walked across stage to receive my diploma. This June, the cycle will come full circle as I watch her walk across the stage to get hers.
I think I can safely say watching your child prepare for graduation is an emotional time for all parents. It is acknowledging that you have guided them to this point in their life and accepting that they are ready to make their own way into the world as young adults. As the parent of a graduating senior, I feel privileged to share my story as well as the pride I feel as she embarks upon the next chapter in her life.
Our journey together has been a lesson in what really matters and what carries on; I not only helped mold her into the person she is, but she made me into the person I am today. And it has been an enlightening journey.
Since the day I learned about Cassie, my daughter has served as my driving force to be the best person I could be and hopefully a worthy role model. Before earning my degree and landing my current position as editor, I worked through college at various positions (postal worker, sheet metal worker, bus driver) occasionally losing focus on my goals, but Cassie served as a reminder. When working the night shift and evenings at the post office, I would see Cassie when I got home in the morning to put her on the school bus, then for a short while in the evening after she returned from school before I headed off to work. While this situation worked before she entered school, it no longer sufficed. I needed to watch her grow and learn so I focused on school and getting my degree then finding a position that allowed more quality time with her.
As I think back about the little things that make an impression, a number of events, school projects and memories fondly come to mind. Like the day she came home with her role model project in which she wrote about her mom and said if she could do anything for me, it would be to buy me a new pair of brown pants. I laughed at the time not realizing it wouldn't be long until I was turning to her for fashion advice.
When my husband, Brian, first entered our life, 6-year-old Cassie happily welcomed him. One of our first outings was to the New York State Fair where Brian suggested we get her face painted and encouraged her to pick whichever design she wanted. I have a picture of the three of us, Cassie front and center with her pink streaks, glitter face, sparkling wand and ear-to-ear smile. Later, during preparation for our 2007 wedding, Cassie made what could have been a tough transition into a smooth one, glowing that day as my junior bridesmaid.
While assuming her new role as step daughter to Brian, her once close relationship with her father became strained. As a child, she would enjoy weekends with her father, visiting Sylvan Beach and spending time with her cousins. However, as her interests changed as she became a young lady, wanting to exert her independence and spend more time with friends, their relationship deteriorated through no fault of her own. She lost her father at the end of her freshman year and will carry that pain with her for the rest of her life. But, as with everything she does, it will be carried in a manner beyond her years.
I've watched her grow into a nurturing individual as she cared for, entertained and gently disciplined four younger and boisterous boy cousins. And now, I watch her motherly tendencies toward her little sister, Cora, who turns 2 in July. This same concern is extended to others she cares about and her ability to act on reason rather than emotion never ceases to amaze me.
Her little sister will be sitting in the crowd June 24 as Cassie crosses the stage. And things really have come full circle as she now takes on the position of being Cora's role model.
My little rock is moving on. Thank you, Cassie, for everything you taught me.
