Read on for more information.
When you are shopping online, you need to only store at reputable stores. If the store does not have a good status, you may be asking for problems. Some people experienced their charge card and private information stolen from shopping on significantly less than reputable websites. Be careful and guard your private information.
When looking out the best price for a big ticket item, make sure to check the store reviews to find out if other customers had a good experience using them. It is also smart to check with the higher Business Bureau as well. You intend to make sure that the carrying on business is legitimate and values you as a client.
Do not invest excess amount on shipping. Shipping costs really can add up. Many sites offer free shipping, free shipping as soon as you spend a quantity, or have a coupon code that allows one to get free shipping. Instead of spending your dollars on delivery, look for a store that boats for free.
If you find a great item on your favorite site, seek out it in a search engine before it really is purchased by you. Make note of the model brand or number, and execute a quick search to be sure you can't obtain it cheaper from someplace else. You may be in a position to save a few dollars that way.
Check out out many stores and compare their offerings. If you don't need a specific brand or model, you should evaluate different products. You should choose the product that provides your essential functions, and do comparison pricing on the product. Check out out Check Out This Article On Online Buying That Offers Many Good Tips preferred Internet sellers to find out what new products they have on the market frequently.
Read customer testimonies before you buy anything. Nowadays Online Purchasing Tips You Can Implement are more than pleased to complain about bad service online, so look for sites and testimonials which are terrible so you know what you're getting into. You need to take bad testimonials using a grain of salt, but if you see many, you understand there's a issue.
Always save duplicates of your purchases and receipts from on the web purchases. Many shops will redirect one to a page after you have submitted an purchase detailing everything that was bought, client information, the prices, etc. You need to either print out a copy of this or conserve a duplicate to your computer in case any issues occur before the end of the come back period. Make sure to save any emails about your items' standing or correspondence with the company regarding your orders, too.
Did you learn just a little about online buying that you did not previously know? Studying the process, easy methods to make online purchasing work for you and everything you have done incorrect before will help. It can help make your online shopping experience an excellent one.

365 Devotions to Love God & Love Others Well by Zondervan
Published November 27th, 2018 by Zondervan
Pages 388
Genres Christian
Everyone wants to love and be loved, but we lack the time and the intentionality to forge lasting relationships. We go about our days feeling battered and broken, lonely and solitary, despite the fact that we've been relentlessly adored by our Creator. This devotional gently shares with us that God already calls us beloved, and He desires that we love others just as He loves us. 365 Devotions to Love God and Love Others Well reminds you daily that in God's eyes you're priceless beyond measure, and your intrinsic value doesn't change one bit regardless of what kind of day, week, or even year you're having. God has called you irreplaceable. This is the love He has for you and the love He has called you to extend to those around you. Savor this yearlong journey into God's limitless and far-reaching love.
Earlier this year I read a similar devotional from Zondervan about being thankful, so when I saw this one about love, I knew I had to read it. Obviously I have not read the entire thing, but plan to throughout the new year. Love is a topic that I believe everyone can benefit from focusing on and could really make this world a better place. This devotional starts in January and provides a daily devotional focused on love throughout the entire year. Each daily devotion includes Scripture, a short message on how the topic and verse impacts our daily life and a short prayer. I use longer devotionals for more in depth study but I really like the format of this devotional and like reading it with my morning tea. If you are looking for a short and to the point devotional that you can easily relate to your day to day life, definitely give this one a try!
Thank you to the publisher, Zondervan, for sending me a review copy of this book.

New Zealand's dry and dowdy political scene is like Tinder paper crying out to get lit by real change. The Opportunities Party is firing up for 2020 – we're looking for spokespeople and candidates from all across Aotearoa who can get some sparks flying. We are seeking smart, creative people who can wrap their beautiful minds around our delicious policy.
If you are passionate about a clean and clever economy where everyone has a place to call home, we'd like to hear from you. Ideally you'll be a sweet talker, but prefer getting into the action.
In particular we are looking for digital natives that are ready to represent their generation and set social media alight. It is your future, so help us fight for it. Of course we welcome people of all ages, as long as you are committed to offer real hope to future generations. More than half of our supporters and volunteers have opened the conversation with "I've never done anything like this before".
Spokespeople need to be able to communicate particular policy priorities in some detail across a variety of media. Candidates will need a more general understanding of our policy.
Geoff Simmons, leader of the Opportunities Party says "Millennials are often criticised for being snowflakes. With enough of them we'll start an avalanche.
As part of the selection process we encourage people to set up a page on Facebook or other social media and start creating content. Videos, blogs, images, whatever inspires you. Do what you do best, and show us how you can communicate bold new ideas."
Keen? Set up your social media page during July and get in touch with us at email@example.com so we know where to look for your content. Our policies can be found at top.org.nz.

Lazy Monday morning. First workday after a 4 day weekend. Imagine how sluggish I am now. But I know we have this deadline to conquer and it is fast approaching. I bet I'd be going overtime today (hoping not too early for tomorrow kind). Apologies to my good friend that I will be missing out on your birthday celebration later. Don't want to keep your hopes up that I'd make it on time. Sigh!
Because of the many, many times last month that I had been literally burning the midnight oil, my panda eyes are as prevalent as ever. And I don't think my eye cream is strong enough to hold reign of terror. The only way I can go to get rid of it, at least for the day, is by using concealers.
And what perfect way to test one of my newest concealers in the pack from Missha.
Since this is my first Missha product to review let me discuss a little more about the brand. Missha is a low end Korean make-up and skin care brand. It joins the ranks of Skinfood, The Face Shop, Etude House, VOV and Beauty Credit. Don't quote me on this one, but I think Tony Moly and Holika Holika are also low end brands. These Korean low-end brands are equivalent to Maybelline and Cover Girl for those who are living in USA. Yes, they are that cheap. Shame on you resellers who try to sell them with a high premium! (Laniege, on the other hand, is a Mid End brand.)
Missha is quite known to dupe famous high end brands, so you'd probably get good stuff from this brand. They are mostly famous for their BB Creams. Since I'm not a BB Cream user, I only got concealers from them when I dropped by their mall store here. Meet my concealer, The Style Perfect Concealer.
They say that this concealer is good dupe of MAC's concealer. Can't say much about that since MAC's way beyond my budget to check it out. This concealer costed me P399 ($9.72) from their mall store in my country. I bet it only costs 60-70% of what I paid for. So you're probably better of buying this from a reseller or a friend/relative in S. Korea. Let this pricing be a guide to you on what it should not cost. Imagine how cheap it is!
The concealer came in 2 colors: Light Beige (which is what I have) and Natural Beige. Color difference among the two: mine is a tad brighter and paler whereas the other one was more orange-y and a little tanner. But I think the darker one would suit me more, if I'm not as acidic as I am now. Both only comes in pot form, so those particular with dipping their hands into the product will be irked about it. Even though it's small and easy to carry with you, you'd still need some space for your concealer brush or whatnot. 😦
The concealer has a dry consistency – as shown on the pot photo with cracks on the side. But even it has a dry consistency, it doesn't crack or flake upon application. Caution for dry skinned people, prep up prior to using this! Combi to oily skinned people will surely benefit from this. You get a matte finish from this and that flawless look we like to achieve.
What I like about this concealer is that it's light weight and scentless upon application (but has a very subtle fragrance when you sniffed it off the pot). And long lasting. I can walk with it under the sun, on this country's humid weather, and it will last me around 4 hours. But if settled properly, which I don't normally do, it will definitely last longer.
Can this be real? Is it that good? It has one downfall – coverage. This only covers minor dark circle problems. I don't know about the eyebags since I don't have much of that, but it only made me look a little more awake. I can still see a little darkness under it. Boo.
I also find it harder to apply this with my brush than using my finger. Perhaps a sponge would be good?
On the bright side, it didn't cause me milia.
Do I recommend this? Yes, especially for those who are lazy…er… I mean, on the go, and for days you want light make-up. It's cheap, scentless and long lasting. Easy to tuck in your make-up purse, and gives you this matte finish. Don't bet on coverage, though.
I can see this making its way up to becoming a staple as a concealer for lighter days. But Missha isn't as accessible as Etude House. Oh well. I guess I'd be heading to my reseller.
What's your lightweight concealer?

Biology Tutorial
Genetics: Inheritance
Mendel formulated a theory of inheritance based on experiments with garden peas, proposing that parents pass on to their offspring discrete genes that retain their identity through generations. The fundamental principles of inheritance are called the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment.
Sample Problem
In a certain species of bird, yellow beaks are dominant to orange beaks, and blue feathers are dominant to black feathers.
Two heterozygous birds are crossed. What fraction of the offspring would be expected to have yellow beaks and blue feathers?
This question requires us to do a dihybrid cross. We can represent the gene for beak color with the symbol "A" for dominant yellow and "a" for recessive orange. For feather color, we can use "B" for blue feathers and "b" for black.
The problem states that both birds are heterozygous for each trait. This implies that our cross is between two birds with the genotype AaBb.
Look at the gametes that can be produced by these parents: AB, Ab, aB, and ab. These are used to make a punnet square.
Offspring: 1AABB, 3Aabb, 8AaBb, 3aaBb, 1aabb
There are 16 total offspring. 12 of them carry the dominant A allele. This gives them the yellow beak phenotype.
Yellow beaks: 1AABB, 3Aabb, 8AaBb
Of these 12, 9 carry the dominant B allele for blue feathers.
Yellow beaks and blue feathers: 1AABB, 8AaBb
This gives us a total of 9 out of the 16 offspring that will express both the yellow beak and blue feather phenotypes.

Conservative actor and avid Donald Trump supporter James Woods turned his Twitter account into a feed for people to get help evacuating the California wildfires and search for missing people.
According to a Yahoo! report, the Casino star helped actress Alyssa Milano get her five horses evacuated during the wildfire chaos. The Who's The Boss star tweeted a plea, "If anyone can get 5 horses out the fire please help me."
Woods responded with last resort advice should Milano not be able to get her horses out of harm's way in time. He advised her to spray paint them with her number and let them go after removing their halters if all other avenues failed. Later, when reports said Milano's horses had been evacuated, Woods tweeted again to let people know those reports were untrue and the actress turned political activist still needed help with the animals. He noted that his request was indeed serious.
In the midst of helping people, Woods also responded to another Twitter user who asked him why he'd cross party lines to help Milano. Woods simply replied, "Because her animals are in danger and she needs help. @Alyssa_Milano #SoCalFiresJamesWoods."
Ultimately, Milano was able to report that her horses made it to safety before the fire threatened their health. She also had words for the people who questioned people helping people in such a difficult situation in California.
Important: if you must free them as a last resort, be sure to remove their halters. @Alyssa_Milano #SoCalFiresJamesWoods https://t.co/aUldBrBFMO— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) November 9, 2018
"Horses are finally safe. My children are safe. My home is in jeopardy but… everything with a heartbeat is safe. Thank you all for your concern. To those who insisted on still being hurtful because our political affiliation is different, you are what is wrong with the country."
For his efforts in helping Milano and many others while the fires rage in Southern California, Woods received a lot of thankful tweets, and Milano added one of her own. In response, he pointed out that politics pale in comparison to helping others escape the devastating fires in the region. He urged people to continue helping out and saving lives.
Other celebrities, including sisters Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, had to flee the fires, which threatened their homes. Plus, the Inquisitr reported that their step-dad, Caitlyn Jenner, lost her house when the fires burned it to the ground, which left her "shaken" up.
Despite losing her home, Jenner was grateful that she and those she loves were able to evacuate in time, and she hopes that everybody else made it out safely too. So far, Jenner hasn't released an official statement in the wake of losing her home.

'Housewives of NYC' star claims no one talks to Bethenny Frankel
HollywoodNews.com: Apparently things are completely broken when it comes to the women of 'Real Housewives of New York City' and the friendship some of them had with Bethenny Frankel.
While the women have been doing interviews for their upcoming season, of course Frankel was up for discussion, states E! News. And of course, the woman she never got along with, Kelly Bensimon, had something to say.
"I don't think any of us talk to her anymore," Bensimon said about their former castmate. Other women on the show have spoken out about the show not needing Frankel.
Do you think any of the women have any contact with her?

text: Sections View Full Chapter Figures Tables Videos Full Chapter Figures Tables Videos Supplementary Content Print Section Pharmacy licensing examinations are designed to determine whether a candidate has the minimum competencies required to enter and then carry out the responsibilities of the profession. A candidate preparing for the licensing examination must be prepared to demonstrate competence in many areas, any one of which may be the subject for in-depth questioning. This book is designed as a self-testing tool for the pharmacy student to identify individual areas of strength and weakness, to suggest areas for further review, and to impart new concepts and other information useful to both the student and the practicing pharmacist. Students, especially those approaching graduation and the NAPLEX will find the book useful for review purposes. The practicing pharmacist will be able to refresh his/her knowledge of many topics. Frequently Dispensed Drugs lists more than 200 drugs by generic names that the authors consider most likely to be dispensed by pharmacists. Included in the table are trade or brand names, manufacturing companies, a brief description of therapeutic uses, and common dosage forms and strengths. It is not necessary to memorize the name of the company manufacturing a certain product, especially with the numerous company name changes; however, many individuals find it easier to relate a trade name to a company. Brand Names (Trade Names) Versus Generic Names serves as a cross-reference of trade names with generic names. We trust that this book will not be viewed as simply a means to review material for the licensing examination. Passing this examination does not guarantee continued competence throughout a long professional career. Practicing pharmacists must not only retain their previously acquired knowledge and skill, but must remain up to date on contemporary modes of practice. We hope that this book will serve both as a means for self-assessment of competence to practice as well as a valuable guided review. A statement listing professional competency in pharmacy originally prepared by the California State Board of Pharmacy appears in How to Use This Book. NAPLEX® is the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) trademark. The NABP does not endorse, authorize, or sponsor this book.

Wunan News News & Updates from the field
Jul 26 2019
Wunan's Financial Wellbeing team recently worked with a dedicated team of superannuation industry volunteers and the First Nations Foundation's Big Super Day out team to bring the first event of its kind to the East Kimberley. The First Nations Foundation is dedicated to achieving economic freedom for Aboriginal people across Australia. They have been hosting Big Super Day Out events since 2014, predominantly in the Eastern states. Wunan's Financial Counsellor initially discussed the idea of hosting a Big Super Day Out in Kununurra when they were attending an ATSI Network function in 2017 at a Financial Counselling Australia (FCA) conference. Wunan's Financial Counsellors were excited and initially hoped to host the event in Kununurra in 2018, however, the logistics and funds required pushed the timeline out to 2019. Wunan's Financial Wellbeing Hub focussed on working with community partners Ngnowar Aerwah in Wyndham, Warmun Arts Centre and Kalumburu's EKJP team to […] Read More.

Jul 18 2019
Wunan recently welcomed their new CEO on board, Mr Viane Watson replaces former CEO Jim Lewis after health issues saw him tender his resignation in late 2018. Mr Watson has arrived in Kununurra with a diverse professional background which includes local government, health, bodies corporate (Strata), indigenous incorporations, the education sector and running and managing his own international business. Having previously spent time in the West Kimberley town of Fitzroy Crossing, whilst working for the Kurungal Council, and in the Central Desert region of the Northern Territory whilst working for the Lajamanu Community Council, Mr Watson is acutely aware of the challenges Aboriginal people face when it comes to embracing the opportunities their non-Aboriginal counterparts in regional and remote Australia take for granted. Mr Watson holds a post graduate Diploma in Management and a Master's Degree in Business Administration, and describes himself as a generalist manager who specialises in governance, […] Read More.

Western Wall Tunnel
Early this morning, we visit the Western Wall Tunnel which takes us under ground and beside the western wall of  the Temple Mount . This is an impressive excavation that reveals some of the largest foundation stones of the temple mount. These  base stones are incredibly huge – the largest one in the wall weighs 600 tons!  What an amazing engineering feat! How did they set that stone in place? As we walked by the spot that is the closest to where the Holy of Holies would have been, we see some Jewish women praying.
When we emerge from the tunnels we see Terrie and Mark waiting with a special gift for Ken. It's a tallet and kippah. Mark gives it to him and them we circle around him and pray and sing.
We next swing back by the hotel to pick up a few of our group who opted to sleep in a few extra minutes.
We then head to Latrun, the site of the armor museum which features tanks used by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in the wars to protect Israel. We also saw tanks that Israel captured from opposing forces in many of these conflicts. We were able to climb on one of the tanks, a Merkava Mk III, and have a group photo.
This active IDF base is also a place where the war memorial stands.  It shows the sacrifice that Israel has made to protect her people. There was a special program for many of the soldiers who were given promotions or special achievement awards. As we talked with several of the soldiers, some of our group handed them a gift, a bandanna with Psalm 91 printed in Hebrew and English. We also thanked them for their service to their country.
At the Wall of Remembrance, the name of each soldier who has given their life for their country since 1948 is listed by conflict. Pastor Mark laid a wreath at the site and we stopped for prayer. We not only prayed for those who have lost loved ones but also prayed for peace that we hope will come someday soon to this troubled land.
Yad Vashem
We returned to Yad Vashem, the place of remembrance where we had been a few days earlier for the state ceremony. Today we are privileged to be on a specially arranged guided tour of this memorial with Hazy Freund. She is a friend of Pastor Mark and is one of the best guides to take us though the exhibits on the grounds here on Mount Hertzel.
It's a lot to take in, but Hazy has a way of really condensing the history down to its most relevant and most powerful points. This is a very hard lesson today for our group. It is absolutely horrific what happened to the Jews and their friends during those dark days under the Nazi regime. "We must never forget" – and that is part of the mission of Yad Vashem.
Today we see the evil that exists in the world as we walk through the exhibits. Kurt Tucholsky, a German essayist of Jewish origin wrote, "A country is not just what is does – it is also what it tolerates."
And we know that the holocaust echoes in the genocide that is still carried out in places like the Sudan. Christians are dying today for their faith, many thousands each year. This is something that's largely ignored by the Western press and even by the Church.
Some of the same people who are persecuting Jews and Christians today are the ones who want to deny the holocaust ever happened.
A lesson from Yad Vashem is that evil triumphs when good men do nothing. This is a depressing place, but a valuable lesson, as we emerge from the dreariness of the exhibits we step out into the light on a large platform that overlooks the city of Jerusalem.  It is here that we discover hope.  Here we see a city that was birthed out of the ashes of the holocaust, a vibrant city that says, "The land of Zion lives".
We began our Israel tour at Independence Hall, standing on the spot where Israel became a nation on that day in May 1948, and we also visited Masada, the last stronghold to fall to the Romans over 2000 years ago. In between, we have seen the struggle of the "people of the Book".
Throughout human history, 19 civilizations have come to power and each tried to crush the nation of Israel. These civilizations have become merely a footnote in history, but the nation of Israel lives. Traveling to Israel has reminded us that God is faithful to His Word and He keeps His promises. Â We have been encouraged as we have literally touched prophecy and we know that Israel has a place in our future..

My mitre saw has already been equipped with a rubber pocket for sawdust. But its efficiency, even when working with a vacuum cleaner was bad. I decided to expand it, and cut a pocket larger (about 2.5 times) from a plastic bottle. Established a new pocket I directly to the old two screws.
As shown, the efficiency increased several times, and I stopped to think about creating a special box for miter saw.
-- I apologize for the error. English is not my mother tongue.

After a long drive with a pit stop for lunch, we made our descent to Aqaba. Passing sea level the humidity increased and the air got a little denser as we made our way to the lowest point on Earth. Without really planning it we realized we just might make sunset. Leaping out of the van to check in and learning we aren't permitted to swim after sunset we dashed to our room to change. We were quite a sight. Not exactly in conservative dress for lack of time or caring we dashed through the hotel, and down the many many stairs to the sea. We literally landed there as the sun was setting, jumped in and took a couple of photos not knowing if the next morning would be foggy. Feeling satisfied we had captured this epic moment, we decided to try our hand at mudding. There wasn't much sun or time to fully dry off but we gave it our best shot and then returned to the floating. This is what we were instructed to do…float and mud, mud and float. Rinse and repeat. We balanced this with trying not to slice our feet on the sharp bits of salt and rocks as we packed light and neglected flip flops. Oops. We caught our breath while marveling at the fact that we could be floating on our backs just inches above the rocks. An accidental taste further confirmed the salt content.
We decided to head back and shower and sort out a new room since ours was smoke filled but we were not missing the sunset to wait for a change. The hotel was very kind about this and we landed a definite upgrade with Dead Sea view and plenty of space for about 3 more beds. There really isn't too much else to do at the Dead Sea but aside from limited food options, we were ok with it for our short visit. We went back down in the dark to see the lights or Jericho and Jerusalem, observe all the interesting mud and salt layers, star gaze and contemplate life and the turmoil we had been learning so much more about (as is obligatory with travel and star gazing).
The next morning we grumpily woke at 5:30 for the brilliant idea of checking out sunrise. We perhaps got there a little early but it really was a brilliant idea. We enjoyed the sea view and for a brief period could see Jerusalem in the haze, lit up in pink. It was perfect timing because once the sun came up over the mountain top, the haze engulfed the view. It was still too chilly for us so we opted for breakfast and returned for our floating and mudding ritual. We decided that because it was cold, it was better to mud first. We actually dried off this time making it much easier to clean the mud off. We had much more time in the water and experimented with what type of gymnastics can be accomplished with 30% salt content. We may have also tried floating like sea otters to know what that felt like. We had some good laughs and though not wanting to leave, had spent enough time in the water to encourage us on our way back to the airport.
Our guide picked us up bearing treats. He felt quite bad about no camel milk I think but he wanted us to depart with the tools to make Bedouin tea which we had loved so much in the desert. He sent us home with a mini tea kettle, plenty of tea and dried sage. Turns out it is much easier to get sage through customs than mud. We are still unclear why I had a debacle at customs getting our mud through as this happens all the time but we safely made our way back to Kuwait after that and settled in for another week at clinic.

Every drive on a Windows PC (even removable one) has an intriguing System Volume Information folder. If your PC shows hidden files on the Windows Explorer, you probably have seen System Volume Information folder many times. Usually, Windows does not allow you to open it which in turn causes a lot of confusion amid less-experienced users. Are you wondering what System Volume Information folder on Windows 10 stands for? Look no more.
System Volume Information – What is it?
Let's make things clear: this is not a sign of viruses on your PC. It is a normal system folder needed for the proper work of many vital features of the file system on modern Windows computer.
System Volume Information folder contains many important data. For example, there are Windows restore points (if you have this feature enabled). Windows restore points are the main reason why the folder is large and takes a lot of space on your drive. You can decrease the size of this folder by changing Windows restore point settings or deleting existing points. Needless to say, you can't simply Shift + Delete this folder. Windows simply won't let you do this. As we told before, System Volume Information has many important data and Windows keeps it safe by preventing accidental deletion.
Restore points is not the only reason why System Volume Information folder exists. It also contains information for Windows Indexing service. This service is responsible for instant search in the Explorer within your drives. In addition, System Volume Information has important bits of data for Volume Shadow Copy and Distributed Link Tacking service.
You can pop open System Volume Information folder if your drive is formatted in exFAT/FAT32. You will find inside files IndexerVolumeGuid and WPsettings.dat. Indexer Volume Guid assigns a unique identifier for the drive where it is stored. Windows Indexing service checks files on the drive and makes them searchable. As to WPsettings.dat file… nobody knows what this file does. For now, let's keep it as it is.
How to open System Volume Information folder? There is no way to open it on NTFS drive. Yes, you can mess around with permissions but we strongly against that. You can open this folder only if your drive is formatted in exFAT/FAT32.
How to Delete System Volume Information Directory?
Let us repeat this again: do not mess with this folder. You won't be able to delete the folder on NTFS drive. You can delete it on exFAT/FAT32, but Windows will bring it back next time it needs it. Most of the time System Volume Information folder appears right after you delete it.
Can't deal with this? Simply uncheck "Hidden items" checkbox in the File Explorer ribbon and you are good to go.
How to Clean up Large System Volume Information?
Sometimes the folder becomes too big, too large (up to tens of gigabytes). In such a scenario you can clean it up using proper methods defined by Windows developers and not by brute forcing Shift + Delete.
Here is what you need to do to fix large System Volume Information:
- Turn off Windows restore points and delete existing points.
- Turn off File history feature.
That's it.

Electricians are skilled technical professionals; they are responsible for enabling the use of electricity within everything from houses and commercial buildings.
Electricians are a vital part of the skilled trades industry. Without electricians, homes wouldn't have heat and light, hospitals wouldn't have the use of vital, lifesaving equipment.
They install and maintain the wiring, protection, and the other mechanisms that electricity flows through. Many electricians also set up and maintain electrical equipment in factories. Electricians connect all cable types to circuit breakers, outlets, transformers, and other components.
And this is just a small sample of what electricity—and therefore electricians—make possible.
If these facts have inspired you to learn how to become an electrician then why not apply for a course at the Isle of Wight College.
Electricians can specialize in a variety of areas, which means they can hold many different job descriptions. That being said, the standard responsibilities of a general electrician usually involve:
- Planning the layout, design, and installation of electrical systems with consideration to safety and ensuring compliance with the most current set of regulations
- Designing and installing new electrical components (wiring, fuses, etc.)
- Repairing and maintaining existing electrical infrastructures
- Inspecting and testing existing electrical systems, components, and equipment to safeguard against hazards
- Connecting wires to various components within electrical systems (transformers, circuit breakers, etc.)
- Assembling, installing, and testing electrical equipment, fixtures, and appliances
Our Students Say
I really enjoyed the course and I have learned a lot in my class, the best year of my education

FILM REVIEW: Transformers: Age of Extinction
This new shot at the transformers franchise has gone back to basics, Michael Bay is back directing so expect the Michael Bay way, Lots of action and explosions.
A new hero in the form of Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg) enters the fray as an aspiring inventor trying to make his way in the world and trying to do his best by his daughter, Tessa Yeager (Nicole Peltz). In the first half hour of the movie, we get to know the Yeager's and how there life has panned out to this point. We also find out, that to her dad's disapproval she has got herself a boyfriend in the shape of Shane Dyson (Jack Reynor), who at first does not see eye to eye with Cade!
During this time frame we also meet the bad guy's for this instalment. Harold Attinger ( Kelsey Grammer) a crooked C.I.A Agent hell bent on destroying all transformers Autobot or Desepticon! We also meet the head of his hit squad, James Savoy (Titus Welliver) who is hunting down the robots one by one for reasons, which are made clear later on in the film.
In the next hour we get some of that Bay action, which moves the film on nicely. After we get our action and explosion fill we have a slight lull in the film. This is the only bad part of the film, as we get the massage that humans make mistakes and they can sometimes be the best thing that happens to you. Boring! Get on with the film.
Cut to the Space ship battles and the prison break and the film steps up a notch. Bringing us to the finale where we see the long awaited dinobots, with Optimus prime laying down the law that he's the boss and don't mess. We see him riding Grimlock (pic above) into battle and the climax of the film.
In conclusion this is a good transformers film, with a slight lull in the middle, that in my opinion didn't need to be there, which would have made the film shorter. Fans of the franchise and Michael Bay, will love this film, so in my opinion this is definitely worth a watch!

- The drawings from the office of Sir John Soane
- (2) c.1815-1816 (3) July 30th 1816
Drawing 3 shows the dimensions and positions of the windows and pilasters, recesses and projections of the upper office. The Garden Court side (east) is shown at the top of the plan, with three spaces for segmental-arched windows. Windows are also shown on the north and south sides but none on the west side as this was the outer wall and therefore more vulnerable to intrusion.
Sir John Soane's collection includes some 30,000 architectural, design and topographical drawings which is a very important resource for scholars worldwide. His was the first architect's collection to attempt to preserve the best in design for the architectural profession in the future, and it did so by assembling as exemplars surviving drawings by great Renaissance masters and by the leading architects in Britain in the 17th and 18th centuries and his near contemporaries such as Sir William Chambers, Robert Adam and George Dance the Younger. These drawings sit side by side with 9,000 drawings in Soane's own hand or those of the pupils in his office, covering his early work as a student, his time in Italy and the drawings produced in the course of his architectural practice from 1780 until the 1830s.
Browse (via the vertical menu to the left) and search results for Drawings include a mixture of Concise catalogue records – drawn from an outline list of the collection – and fuller records where drawings have been catalogued in more detail (an ongoing process).

I always thought equipment didn't help to make the athlete successful, but it was the mental motivation and natural-born talent that propelled one to greatness. I was proud I didn't need fancy running clothes or the latest track shoe technology to do well in sports. However, at nearly 30 years old, the motivation to stay in shape with no reason to do so makes it difficult for this former athlete to be great at anything.
Looking to shed some pounds, I recently joined We Run Westfield, a group of Westfield employees and residents training for this year's Indianapolis Mini-Marathon. I began my training a few weeks ago and it has been torture. A typical run usually ends with me sucking air for dear life while lying on the floor of my living room praying I don't die. And every time I finish a run, I think to myself there is no way I am going to be able to do it all over again the next day. So how does one stay motivated?
The health benefits of exercise have been scientifically proven. But that doesn't mean I'm going to want to go on a brisk run rather than sit on my couch and eat a pint of Handel's Ice Cream while watching reruns of "Seinfeld." Recently, I've found motivation to exercise by hanging two pictures on my refrigerator – one when I was younger, skinner and healthier, and the other a picture of me taken when I was overweight and in bad lighting. This way, whenever I walk to the kitchen, I am reminded of the person I used to be before I began living my couch potato lifestyle.
I have also found benefits to exercising with a friend or group of people that have the same fitness goals as me. Do I try to find someone more overweight and out of shape than me so I can feel better about myself – sure.But the importance of having an accountability partner or partners keeps me motivated because we are able to support each other to work harder and stick with our fitness goals.
Think about things that help motivate you. Maybe it's seeing a picture of your out-of-shape self, or the support of a fitness partner. Whatever it is, get up off the couch and start moving toward a healthier you.

Alexander Shunnarah gives back to the community with the first annual 'Shunnarah Seasons of Giving' initiative
Most people know Alexander Shunnarah for his infamous "Call me Alabama" slogan and the massive trail of billboards commonly spotted by travelers along I-65. However, what many aren't aware of is Shunnarrah's heart for giving back to the city he calls home.
To show his love and appreciation for Birmingham, the Alabama lawyer just launched the first ever "Shunnarah's Seasons of Giving" initiative and is surprising locals in the community with various acts of service throughout the month of December.
Shunnurah described this initiative as a, "…small part in giving back to the community and paying it forward."
To begin the month-long program, Shunnarrah stopped by Etheridge Brother and Sister Barber and Beauty Shop in downtown Birmingham last week where he gave locals an opportunity to receive a complimentary haircut.
"It's been a great initial kickoff in the seasons of giving," Shunarrah said.
In addition to these pop-up visits, Shunnarah's law firm is partnering with The Shoe Clinic LLC for the clinic's third annual 'Saving One Sole at a Time" Sneaker, Sock and Coat Drive. The drive will take place at The Shoe Clinic LLC on Saturday, December 15th from 12:00 – 4:00 p.m.
Donations are accepted now through December 15th. Both organizations hope to collect 500 sneakers and coats, and 1000 pairs of socks by December 15th.
To donate to the sneaker, sock and coat drive, visit one of the two drop-off locations listed here:
The Shoe Clinic
1801 11th Ave S. Birmingham, AL,
Alexander Shunnarah Law Firm
2900 1st Ave. S. Birmingham, AL.

In introducing Portland Opera's Portland premiere of Postcard from Morocco at its opening night Friday, artistic director Christopher Mattaliano called it "the most produced American opera of the past 40 years."
On the surface, it's easy to see why. First, producing Dominick Argento's 1971 chamber opera entails a lot less risk and expense than a typical 19th century grand opera. The seven-member ensemble cast, instrumental octet, spare props (costumes, suitcases, a portable painter's easel, etc) and single, simple set (projections are used to present other scenarios) obviate the need to spend big bucks on a big name star, massive chorus, full orchestra, expensive props and sets. Not requiring extensive theatrical facilities, Postcard can be produced in a wide variety of spaces—a typically American pragmatism.
It's also a quintessentially American opera. Postcard's story (really a scenario and an assemblage of lines of dialogue contrived by original director John Donahue and arranged by Argento) involves a very American theme: transience. The action transpires in the departure lounge of a train or cruise ship station, its characters on the way to somewhere else. Another Americanism: they're defined not by their names, families, or titles but instead by their stuff —
Lady with a Hand Mirror, Man with a Shoe Sample Kit, etc. Much of the interest lies in finding out what's inside the suitcases they carry. Even Argento's colorful score is an all-American melting pot, an eclectic potpourri — oops, better make that stew — of styles, from Wagner quotes to jazz to operetta. And at a time when much European classical music embraced atonality, Argento's colorful score is mostly tonal, sometimes even — for shame! — pretty. Four years later, he'd win the Pulitzer Prize for music, and later a Grammy.
But while these factors no doubt contribute to Postcard's ubiquity on American stages, its success is nevertheless sort of surprising, because it lacks most of the elements we associate with classic operas — showstopping arias; a heart-tugging, clearly triumphant or tragic climax; star turns — beloved of operaholics, which probably explains the bemused smiles, thoughtful miens, and restrained applause last weekend's opening performance earned. Its single, drab setting poses a dramatic problem: how to keep audiences interested in a bunch of puzzling people stranded in a station? Plays have pulled that trick off, but operas?
Not only does Postcard omit a love story or obvious conflict like a war, but there's no conventional narrative at all, rather a series of monologues by each character that, while supplying superficial details about their lives, dreams, and memories, ultimately reveal little, except that everyone has something to hide …
but we never quite learn what it is. The archetypal characters leave us little to identify with, having more in common with Beckett and Pirandello than Bizet and Puccini. Earlier operas and plays had eschewed conventional plot, character and structure, but how many have secured so many stagings?
In fact, the key to Postcard's success may actually be its lack of literality, its omission of obviousness. The lacunae imposed by this smaller-scale production allow an able creative team to fill them with clever inventions, and invite the audience to use its imagination to supply the missing links. That places a big burden on the production, and fortunately, this one carries it off smartly. Katie Taylor will have ArtsWatch's real review shortly, but for me, this Postcard really delivers. And that raises some questions about the company's direction, which we'll get to shortly.
Co-produced with the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, this spiffy new Postcard makes some key changes to the original, which was set in 1914. Judging by Sue Bonde's groovy costumes, suitcases and hairstyles, PO moves it to around the time of the opera's early-'70s creation. Director Kevin Newbury strips the story down even further by jettisoning the original stage directions and extraneous roles, and cleverly sustains visual interest by keeping the players in motion (including having them shift and rearrange the sparse set by moving the banks of plastic chairs), adeptly using lighting (courtesy of designer Connie Yun) to give each character her own unique frame and perspective, and having the singers expressively act out their monologues rather than merely singing them.
Portland Opera's energetic young resident artists excel at both. Alexander Elliott and Caitlin Mathes (both evidently destined for some measure of stardom) especially shone, but really, the entire well-cast ensemble deserves kudos, as does the instrumental octet led by William Vendice.
By the time it ended, I felt as though I'd awakened from an odd but enjoyable dream where nothing quite made sense, yet it all somehow added up. Not to give anything away, but even more than other touches throughout this production, the final scene definitely reaches into the Twilight Zone (I can think of at least three of the original TZ episodes that used similar themes) even down to the wry (possibly cheesy, but I didn't mind) shaggy dog humor of its final image. In spite of its oblique storyline, Postcard from Morocco is a pleasantly puzzling crowd-pleaser that doesn't really need to make perfect sense.
Less is More
In fact, just about every year I've been attending PO, I've enjoyed the Newmark/resident artist shows — Galileo Galilei, The Child and the Spells and The Spanish Hour, La Calisto — more than almost any of the main stage productions with starrier casts at the much more capacious Keller Auditorium. In part this is no doubt due to the unusually adventurous (often contemporary) yet accessible programming, in part to the energy of a young cast whose members are trying to make a name for themselves rather than yet again going through the motions of a role they've acted dozens of times before, in part because of clever, often minimalist staging (limitations stimulate creativity and imagination rather than the literalness of many big productions) — and in large part due to the relative intimacy of the Newmark, which while burdened with a mediocre-at-best musical acoustic (but then, you could say that about most Portland music venues, with a few exceptions like Lincoln Hall) and limited theater facilities nevertheless easily outstrips the capacious Keller, which Mattaliano rightly calls "a barn."
This got me wondering… why doesn't PO produce more operas in the Newmark? In an interview a couple of years ago, Mattaliano attributed the company's admittedly conservative programming (endless reruns of the same old top ten operas, albeit occasionally in new productions — old wine in new bottles) to the risk of failing to fill the auditorium's 3,000 seats. When a single poor-selling expensive show can sink a company (especially during a recession), the safe bet is to hang on to the core audience that buys season tickets (rather than stake its strategy on unpredictable walk ups) and, the company evidently surmises, demands its repeatedly warmed over comfort fare. Rather than risk too many regulars staying home to avoid unfamiliar, possibly dangerously dissonant departures (a canard, as Argento demonstrates, but no doubt prevalent), PO gives its core audience what it thinks they want.
But isn't this arranging equine posterior to cart? PO programs conservatively in order to fill the Keller. But shouldn't the goal be to make fresh, interesting, moving operas — rather than to pack a particular (and pathetically unsuitable) venue? Shouldn't the venue facilitate the artistic vision and not vice versa? Especially when every opera company needs to cultivate a younger audience, and this one already has wisely (and fortunately) engaged one of America's foremost conductors of contemporary opera and orchestral music, George Manahan, as its music director?
The Newmark is big enough for the chamber-orchestra sized forces used in operas by Mozart and others of his period and earlier (PO has successfully teamed with Portland Baroque Orchestra there), and for many contemporary and 20th century works. As Opera Theater Oregon has proved, it's sometimes possible to fruitfully reduce the scale of bigger operas. Perhaps PO could even co-produce smaller new productions with adventurous companies like Fort Worth Opera and Los Angeles's The Industry.
Time after time, Mattaliano has scored solid artistic triumphs with his company's Newmark productions. And he's assured me that if he had his druthers, he'd love to produce more unusual, contemporary, and 20th century fare, including resuming his beloved Britten series. Of course, artistic vitality is only part of the equation, so there must be some economic reality that dictates otherwise, and we hope to explore this further with the company in a future story as it approaches the half century mark. But for now, let's just imagine….
Could staging fewer Keller warhorses in favor of more Newmark novelties simultaneously reduce the company's financial risks (and consequent lowest common denominator programming) and help it attract more diverse audiences? Even if they lost some of the Boheme-aholics, how much longer can the company survive by constantly repeating the same old greatest hits in the unappealing, expensive Keller? And more to the point: why would it want to?
Granted, the Newmark's smaller capacity would require more performances to sell the same number of seats, but presumably it costs less to engage the resident artists (who have been one of the company's real successes during this recent recession wracked stretch), fewer musicians, and sparer sets and props. Maybe the lower expenses would even allow the company to charge lower ticket prices — the single best way to boost audiences.
Some cite the recent demise of New York City Opera as a warning of what might happen to companies that venture into less-traditional fare, but that company's failure has been squarely attributed to gross mismanagement, not innovative, listener-friendly programming. (The company's productions didn't always hold up both ends of that equation.)
What would happen if instead of being merely a once-a-year fringe success, those lively, venturesome, intimate productions became the mainstream, and the company reached out to new and younger audiences and performers who relish the opportunity try something different? Which raises other questions: Has the company actually asked its existing audience whether they'd be open to more Newmark shows? Or tried to find out what the audience it would like to have — but doesn't yet — wants? (Maybe our readers can help them gauge demand right here.)
In other words, what if more Portland Opera productions really looked like Portland today: lean and progressive rather than bloated and conservative, original rather than insecurely emulating the backward-looking toffs in larger metropoli (but never able to afford their level of quality anyway) … a little quirky maybe, but fresh, original and exciting — adjectives that seldom apply to the company's Keller music today? Would that model be at least as sustainable as the current one?
We invite PO's responses to these questions, and your contributions to this conversation below, and we hope to pursue this notion in future stories. In the meantime, go see Postcard from Morocco this Thursday or Sunday, and let us (and thereby Portland Opera) know via comments if it's the kind of intimate contemporary opera you'd like to see and hear more of.

SAN ANTONIO – Playing the second match of a three-game road trip, T2 fell 2-1 on the road to San Antonio FC in front of 6,096 fans at Toyota Field Wednesday night.
After falling behind 1-0, T2 (3-22-6, 15pts) equalized in the 38th minute when defender Bill Tuiloma got on the end of midfielder Renzo Zambrano's delivery from a free kick, heading the ball into the back of the net. The finish marked Tuiloma's third headed goal of 2017, while Zambrano recorded his first career USL assist in his sixth start of the season.
San Antonio FC (16-4-11, 59pts) tallied the game-winning goal after Ryan Roushandel received forward Ever Guzman's pass just outside the six-yard box and fired his attempt into the top right corner of the net in the 71st minute.
Down a goal, Portland midfielder Max Ornstil hit a long-range shot that missed the target in the 79th minute. In stoppage time, Tuiloma's low-curling shot from outside the box forced San Antonio goalkeeper Diego Restrepo into a save at the near post in the 93rd minute.
SAFC scored the opening goal of the match when Guzman headed midfielder Billy Forbes's cross past a diving Wade Hamilton at the far post in the 14th minute.
Holding an 11-8 shot advantage in the match, Portland threatened early in the first half when Tuiloma's free-kick attempt from just outside the penalty area was struck over the crossbar in the third minute. Latching onto Zambrano's pass inside the top of the penalty area, Ornstil's low shot was fired inches past the far post in the 18th minute. Late in the first half, Russell Cicerone's left-footed effort from 20-yards out missed the target in the 40th minute, while midfielder Omar Mohamed's shot from just outside the left edge of the penalty area missed inches past the far post in the 41st minute. Timbers Academy midfielder Carlos Anguiano, making his third-straight start, struck his right-footed effort at Restrepo in the 66th minute.
Next up, T2 will conclude the 2017 USL regular season on the road against Phoenix Rising FC at Phoenix Rising FC Soccer Complex on Saturday; kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m. (Pacific).
Postgame Quote Sheet
T2 head coach Andrew Gregor
On tonight's result…
"I thought we started the match well until we made a mistake on a counter from a cross. We didn't manage it well enough and they punished us. We did a good job of getting into it. Renzo [Zambrano] whipped in a good cross and Bill [Tuiloma] got up to score the goal and had us back in the game. In the second half, I thought we started slow. We gave the ball away in a dangerous area and they punished us for it."
On Renzo Zambrano's play this season after recording his first assist of the year…
"I think Renzo has been good when he's been with us. I still think he's working himself into sharpness. He's played a few games with us now, after coming off a big break, and he's working himself into how we do things, how we like to play, his own sharpness and his own personal fitness, but he's an experienced player that brings something to our team and really helps us out."
On heading into the regular-season finale on the road at Phoenix Rising FC…
"It's the last game of the year. It's the last chance for the group to impress the staff and the club in the last game. I expect everyone to put in a good effort. The last couple of games, we played well away from home. We'll have an opportunity to play against Phoenix, which is an experienced team, and have an opportunity to end the season on a positive note and move forward from there."

- Healthy Weight Secret
What Prevents You From Doing Sports Regularly?
Anyone wants to be beautiful and healthy and this is normal. Most people know that the right way to achieve the desired result is sport. But, unfortunately, for most of those willing and knowledgeable it is not more than just willing.
Why? By the fact that the whole problem lies in the head - in the aggregate of thoughts and attitudes that a person has set for himself. This set does not allow to achieve any results, and ultimately, reduces any initiatives to zero.
How to start and not quit playing sports?
If you want to get any result, you need to exercise at least half an hour every day! This is normal, and most importantly - real! If you decide to become a novice athlete, it is possible that even a 20-minute athletic load will initially seem huge to you. Or maybe you are so busy that even the same 20 minutes of free time is an unsolvable task for you.
In sports books and training video instructions, often, even for beginners, the time of training varies from half an hour to an hour and a half of intensive training, which is beyond your power, because you are a beginner. How to be? Start physical activity with 5 - 10 minutes! But it must be done daily! It is also true that in 5-10 minutes a day, you will not gain a bodybuilder figure, do not lose extra 10 kg. The main thing here is to understand that this short physical charge is for your head! So you can develop the main thing - the daily habit of physical exercise. And the pace, workload and time of classes can always be increased, and this should be done gradually.
If you are tormented by a thought like "I can't make myself ...", we must urgently get rid of it! To do this, reconsider the attitude to yourself and to sports. If, for example, running causes you to have something like "hard labor", try to find your own way - find the type of physical exercise that you like. Do not like running, go in for karate or yoga, sport dancing or orienteering. Engage to the music. Look for yourself, and everything will work out for you!
If you are overcome by thoughts like "why do I need it ...?", Then you are not motivated enough! It also happens this way, as long as your health is good. You are young, beautiful and healthy, and, as it were, you need to make a career, and there seems to be no time left for sport.
But it turns out that:
Sports reduce the risk of the emergence of diseases such as: stroke and diabetes, cancer and arthritis, diseases of the cardiovascular system.
Exercise proven to increase the years of life. For example, only 15 minutes of daily sports activities will be able to extend the life from 2 to 3 years!
Exercising increases vitality and improves overall well-being and improves mood.
Being engaged in physical culture, you will become less subject to stress and depression.
Occupation by any kind of sport promotes improvement of a sexual life. The endurance of the body increases, you become more energetic, and therefore active and effective.
Now think, isn't this enough to do sports?
Do not think about the possibility that not everything works out for you yet, this is also your new, sporting experience. Even great athletes suffered defeats, especially at the beginning of training more often, it turns out not quite as it should. Let your body get used to the load first, see what it likes and what needs to be tightened. Over time, choose for yourself some suitable program or come up with an individual complex.
The main thing is to act! Good luck!

HCM CITY (VNS) — In celebration of seaplane services in southern Viet Nam, including tailor-made charter flights and scheduled flights between Ho Chi Minh City and Phan Thiet, Hai Au Aviation is offering a special promotion with ticket fares of zero Vietnamese dong.
Customers who book round-trip flights between HCMC and Phan Thiet this month will receive a free return ticket. One-way trips from Phan Thiet to HCMC this month are offered at a 20 per cent discount.
In early 2015, Hai Au Aviation embarked on its first journey in southern Viet Nam with two charter flights, bringing international tourists from Tan Son Nhat airport in HCM City to the idyllic beach town Phan Thiet.
With a fleet of three brand-new Cessna Grand Caravan 208B-EX seaplanes based in Tan Son Nhat and Noi Bai airports, Hai Au Aviation now offers tailor-made private charter flights to more than 20 destinations in Viet Nam and Cambodia, as well as daily scheduled flights Ha Noi – Halong Bay and HCMC – Phan Thiet. — vns

A flurry of opinion polls are putting paid to the well-spun, well-hung parliament narrative nonsense, which set tongues a-waggin' and moneymarkets a-jitterin'. A more realistic outcome is beginning to emerge. What will the chattering class find to talk about?
Push polls, masquerading as legitimate political polling and used as a political campaign technique, are nothing new. Used effectively during US presidential elections and the Obamathon, they have their uses. Driving headlines and pushing a particular political agenda with political propaganda in ways that would make Bush's Karl Rove blush.
Here they have had their day but served their purpose. Giving complacent Tories a kick up the backside, giving fag-end New Labour a ray of false hope and giving little boy Clegg the dream of being kingmaker on Fantasy Island.
Now election weary voters are beginning to make up their minds without slanted spin rammed down their throats.
The Orange Party has wearily beaten the drum over dodgy polls - only as good as the fishy weightings, sample size and questions asked. Projecting a uniform swing which takes no account of Tory inroads in key marginals was a mug's game.
Private party polls are kept well under wraps. But, as Lawson points out in the Indy today, polls come with a health warning and a sample error of around 3 per cent. You takes your opinion poll and takes your choice depending on political persuasion.
And what have the narratives, in the main, been based on? A single pollster, YouGov. There's been something fishy about the whole thing from the start.
From a ridiculous two points difference in a rogue poll for The Sunday Times a couple of week's ago, YouGov now has a seismic shift with Con 37% (0), Lab 32% (-1). You couldn't make it up.
Pollsters are not charities. Opinion polls are commissioned by the media, looking for a line and a headline to suit a political agenda.
A Guardian/ICM poll now shows Tories up three points as "New Labour fightback stalls" with Con 40 (+3), Lab 31 (+1).
Over at The Daily Express/Opinium, it's: Con 39 (+2) Lab 28 (-2).
Given the margin of error, a Tory lead of 39% to New Labour's 28%, whatever, can be read as Tory 42% to New Labour's 25% - or the other way around. Only Nowhere Man Clegg is going nowhere.
Once Bottling Brown finally gets round to naming the day, voter intentions will harden and pollsters will sharpen up their act.
The YouGov daily tracker will be joined by others and polls in the marginal battlegrounds more commonplace. And Smithson's rule of thumb over political betting will probably hold true: the pollster with the lowest Labour percentage will probably give the most accurate prediction.

Can Am shows off ultimate hunting vehicle (VIDEO)
By Kristin Alberts
The XT Cab Version of the Can Am Defender Mossy Oak Hunting Edition is a purpose-built set of wheels ready to take on the roughest terrain.
From the tracks to the headache rack and gun boots, all the extras on this SHOT Show floor model are straight from Can Am. A bed-mounted winch makes loading game a snap, even when running solo. This one turned some heads on the show floor.
I had the pleasure of taking one of these babies through some rough terrain and it's clear Can Am knows what hunters want in terms of performance and features.

Doctor Who Annual 1981 Hardback
Doctor Who Annual 1981 Hardback
Doctor Who Annual 1981 (Doctor Who Annuals #15) by Glenn Rix (Illustrator), Mel Powell (Illustrator) Text Stories: Colony of Death, Alien Mind Games, A Midsummer's Nightmare, The Voton Terror, Sweet Flower of Uthe Comic Strip: Every Dog Has His Day Notes: Following Paul Crompton's departure from World, Glenn Rix was assigned to handle the artwork, though the one strip story was illustrated by Mel Powell. At this time the art studios at World were disbanded and the work was done freelance rather than in-house. The companions were the Second Romana and K9, but the only recognisable likeness of Lalla Ward appears in the story A Midsummer's Nightmare. On page 14, Romana looks remarkably like Sarah Jane, which is ironic considering that the illustrators had never managed to capture Sarah's features accurately! A Midsummer's Nightmare featured a direct reference to The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy (considered by Romana to be a superior play to Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Doctoream). Once again, a quarter of the book was taken up with puzzles and stock features. The company underwent a name change, becoming World International Publishing Ltd whereas previously it had been World Distributors (Manchester) Ltd. Some copies were released with the year '1981' removed from the spine, cover and title page. The book was printed in Italy, and around 61,800 copies were sold.

What makes a good teacher
What makes a good teacher?
All good teachers should have great skills, attitudes and qualities. Skills that a good teacher needs is to be, well organised and to be able to encourage their students. Attitudes that a good teacher needs is to have a kind attitude and to have a encouraging attitude. Qualities to make a good teacher is to be trustworthy and understanding.
A good teacher should be well organised. They should be ready before students enter the class. This will show their students to always be organised before coming to school. Another skill that good teachers should have is to be able to encourage their students at all times. Student's should be able to have encouragement by their teachers as much as possible, especially when they need help.
A good teacher needs a kind attitude. Student's shouldn't be afraid to talk to their teachers. A good teacher will have an encouraging attitude as well. Meaning their student's will always receive support and motivation towards learning. They also encourage their students to always do their best so they can have a bright future.
Good teachers have many different qualities. 2 qualities a good teacher needs is being trustworthy and understanding. Teachers should always be trustworthy. If a student needs to talk to a teacher about something happening at home it should stay between them two. Student's should be able to trust their teachers. Teacher's should always be understanding to be able to relate more to their students.
In conclusion I think that all teachers need skills, attitudes and qualities to become a good teacher. I think that Jesus had all these skills, attitudes and qualities because he was an amazing teacher to the apostles and disciples.
In Room 5 for writing, we have been learning about the different qualities, skills and attitudes of what makes a good teacher.

There has been a definite trend towards late bookings this year, with most long haul destinations significantly outperforming their sales for the past couple of years
London (PRWEB) May 24, 2009
Surprising sales trends from Hayes & Jarvis reveal that neither sterling's slump against most currencies nor the temporary troubles in some of the world's most popular destinations are deterring British holidaymakers from booking long haul holidays.
Instead Hayes & Jarvis reports holiday bookings up by more than 50 per cent in countries that have experienced more than their fair share of trouble in recent months, most notably Thailand and Sri Lanka. However the long haul specialist admits that the biggest gains are coming from late bookings, with clients keen to take advantage of some of the heavy discounts available on packages for travel within the next 12 weeks.
"There has been a definite trend towards late bookings this year, with most long haul destinations significantly outperforming their sales for the past couple of years," said Hayes & Jarvis Head of Commercial, Niel Alobaidi.
"Kenya stands out as the best seller - bouncing back well from the riots that damaged its tourism prospects in 2008 - but Sri Lanka and Thailand are also selling very strongly with sales up by more than 50 per cent in recent weeks. Of course the common denominator for these three destinations is that they are always competitive - but tactical discounting by hoteliers keen to attract business has helped to make them unbeatable value at the moment," he said.
Alobaidi points to the resilience of destinations like Thailand and Sri Lanka, which might have expected to suffer after they hit the headlines with anti-government protests and an escalation of the civil war with the Tamil Tigers. "We did see a short term blip in bookings for Thailand but these bounced back very quickly to make it one of our best performing destinations and, like Sri Lanka, it has seen a boost to late bookings recently as customers look to switch from Mexico."
More of a concern has been the sluggishness of the forward booking market but Alobaidi says that this is beginning to come back as the economy shows signs of green shoots and confidence returns to the holiday market.
Most surprisingly, while sterling may have slid by more than 23 per cent against the US dollar in the past year, Hayes & Jarvis says that early transatlantic bookings have never been so buoyant. "People are booking really early to secure the best deals in the USA and this applies not just to New York but to Las Vegas and Orlando as well. Despite the lower exchange rate for the pound from this time last year, the US dollar still represents great value and clients appear determined to make those traditional pre-Christmas shopping breaks to New York. As a result we are almost 60 per cent up year on year on winter bookings," said Niel Alobaidi.
