A studio and complex lighting setup are by no means required ingredients for a successful portrait shoot. In fact, you don't need either one. Well, you do need light but that light source can be a window and any room in your house can serve as a studio. Why would you want to shoot portraits this way? Maybe you prefer the look, maybe the weather isn't fit for an outdoor session, maybe you have no intention of buying all the gear the pros use for studio shoots. The reason doesn't really matter — if you want to learn more about shooting portraits with available light, keep reading for a few helpful tips.
Locate Your Light Source, Assess Quantity And Quality
For the scope of this discussion, we'll just stick with a window as the primary source of light. Everyone's got a window. Bigger windows are better because they let in more light. In addition to the quantity of light you'll need to determine the quality of the light. Window light is generally soft, but exactly how soft it is can change throughout the course of the day. There's really no wrong time of day to use window light; it's a good idea to spend a few moments in the room where you will be shooting just observing the light and visualizing how you to use it to illuminate your subject.

The Practice of Noble Values among Primary School Students in Malaysia
Social problems among students have become very serious in recent years. Therefore, the issues that need to be addressed are the practices that exist among them. This study will share a research finding that identifies the level of practice of applying noble values among primary school children. This study used qualitative research designs through interviews and observations and quantitative survey studies where data were collected through questionnaires involving 321 primary school children from four primary schools in the North Zone of Peninsular Malaysia. Overall, the findings show that the practice of noble values is admirable. This study found that there was a significant difference in values of noble practices in terms of school types. In addition, the findings also found that values of respect are the most dominant values practiced by primary school students followed by other values.

Love: The Loftier the View, the Shallower the Base
It is outright stupidity to claim to understand love, because love it is not meant to be understood. This is the problem with young people today. They claim to have an insight into everything around them but what they miss out is the futility of the entire exercise of comprehending love, in the first place.
I have many friends who also have many friends. They, in turn, have many boyfriends and girlfriends. Since these young people are in relationships, they believe they've figured out the secrets of the world in an instant. Any relationship that lasts for more than a year becomes the hallmark or the archetype of a perfect relationship and of undying love.
I am not saying that that could not be the case. For the sake of my friends, I hope it almost always is. But to deny or refuse what is staring you in the face is an act of absurdity and stupidity that I would rather not indulge in. This is because I have had my fair share and more of love problems. I do not profess to be a love guru, not by miles. But I do profess to have studied, analyzed and observed some of the basic underlying issues from which dissent arises.
Allow me to share the most obvious ones with you.
However, the same is not the case with love. On several occasions, my friends have come up to me to ask, "How do I love him (or her)?" Or, "why do I hate him (or her) and at the same time love him (or her)?"Don't understand love experience it. I know that at best, it sounds mushy, cheesy and clichéd, but that is actually how love is. Let me give you a very twisted logic. Have you ever had problems with feeling sad? You couldn't probably understand why you are upset but there is no ambiguity as far as the emotion and its consequences are concerned.
That's just the problem. Love has been romanticized, valorised and glorified to such an extent that we have thought so much more about it but have forgotten how to experience it. The problem lies in our thinking about it a bit too much. This problem gets much worse when people like me, who have studied, analyzed and observed relationships, formulate certain principles they wish to live by. If I were in love someday, I would…Period. Problem!!!
What we end up doing is to create ideals and notions much higher than our inbuilt tolerance scale. Neither would I ever be jealous nor would I fight unnecessarily. Instead, I would this…I would that. If it were as easy as that, the whole world would be in love of the undying kind.
Love is always evolving, which means it's neither static nor fixed. It is an entity that you construct
as you experience it. The problem arises when you create lofty ideals about the person you love and end up with an ideal that you cannot live up to. This brings on a whole lot of disappointment when the ideal manifests itself in the relationship. In hindsight, you find that achieving love itself was impossible because you lose out on the good things of what a relationship does to you and can offer you.
A relationship is not about being perfect together but about being different and yet being together. When you work around those differences, with them and within them, you achieve the hallmark of love.
By this, by no means do you lower your standards but become realistic and avoid getting into an abusive relationship, be ill-treated or any such thing because undoubtedly, you know where to draw the line.
The loftier the view means the shallower the base. Whenever we have had instances of people having strong rigid views about anything at all, the consequences have been dramatic and destructive. Why would the life of an individual be any different?

I've just came from a hot live sex show on videarn.com where I got to meet two horny studs. These guys have a thing going with one another but when I saw this chick joining in on them.. i didn't knew what to expect. However, all she ever did was to stay on that desk where she played with her pussy the entire cam show while these two fucked like two horny rabbits. I do have to say that the way this guy was standing doggy style really made me nervous because I couldn't stop jerking off.
This show reminded me of a time when my sister brought her boyfriend over and let me watch them have sex. Before I knew it he came over to my hardon and gave me a blowjob I have never been able to match since. It was crazy because now she played with her pussy the entire cam show. She was so happy that there was no way I could say no when he wanted to fuck my asshole.
Ever since then I have been swinging both ways and loving it. Now I wonder why guys try to deny their excitement for other guys. Bisexuality has been around since the dawn of time. Men did it throughout the ages. Stop trying to be somebody you are not and embrace the bisexual that you are. It doesn't make you gay. It just makes you honest and open minded.

CJ And The Blowjob
CJ has a friend around to play in this home-made porn video. Watching some XXX on TV, his friend enters the room and seeing just how turned on CJ is he begins rubbing his huge dick through his pants. Feeling the reaction as CJ get harder, he unzips his pants and sets free his cock, rubbing up and down its long shaft as he starts to lick around the end of his friend's dick and lubing him up nicely for what is in store.
Both guys, now really turned on, waste no time in getting their clothes off in this home-made porn shoot. CJ is gently laid on the bed as his friend starts sucking his throbbing member, his cock getting harder and harder all the time. CJ doesn't take his eyes off of the TV and reaches down to grab his friend's head, forcing his stiff dick deep into his buddy's mouth and makes him gag as it reaches his throat. He pushes it deeper and deeper until every thrust of his cock into his friend's mouth is knocking his balls with his chin.
Not yet wanting to cum, CJ releases his friend and starts to stroke his own cock, grabbing it firmly, his hand pumping up and down in a milking action as his friend watches.
Want to see what happens next in this awesome home-made porn shoot, click below to find out.

When Mick Torrance and Daniel Grange came to the Broke Straight Boys set neither of them had a dime to their name. They were both quite money hungry, and as it would turn out, cock hungry as well.
Neither of them thought of himself as a "faggot" per se. It was more a think of necessity that turned into something enjoyable. How were either of them to know they'd end up liking gay sex more than straight sex?
As they say, a man knows what feels good to another man because he knows what feels good to himself. These two boys were feeling pretty randy by the time the cameras stopped rolling. Watch the entire video at BrokeStraightBoys.com!

I have to say there is one thing I have never done and that is pissing on somebody or get pissed on by somebody. I have had my fair share of getting pissed off at somebody and pissing off others, but never an actual piss-job.
Watching this gay porn video from GiveMeGay.com made my dick harder than usual. I actually opened my mouth to catch this dudes piss? Am I more of a freak than I thought I was?
This site is a great resource when you are looking for strange fetishes in the gay genre. There are tens of thousands of hunk gay videos and even more when you add in the other niches.
By using the category, most popular, channels, models and other navigation links you can quickly drill down to the videos that most match your tastes. You will have a hard time believing this site is total legal and completely free. Particularly when you take into account the fact that the average video here is pretty long. Most have the entire scene!

If there is one thing I hate about free gay porn sites it is that their videos are nothing more than short advertisements. I want long videos with all of the action. Not some stupid clip meant to leave you high and dry.
FapLot.com has long gay tube movies you can watch all night long. There are no restrictions. The site is adding new movies all throughout the week. Some days get busier than others. Make sure to bookmark and see what is coming next.
These two young studs decided to take off their sweaty clothes so they could get even sweatier with skin on skin contact. The brown boy is too cute. A total hottie. The blonde boy is straight out of the 80's with his fit body and his long blonde hair. Together they make for one of the hottest gay tube videos I have ever seen!

So a straight friend of mine comes over to discuss going duck hunting (yes, gay men go hunting. Take that NRA!) and I was just getting the gallery together, and whatnot for this post. The first words out of his mouth, "Dude, that is… just… gay!" Haha, I love it when my straight friends quiver!
Anyway… In this installment from Suite 703 we have Trevor Knight inviting his friends younger brother over to celebrate his birthday. Once there Tristan realizes he is the only invitee. At first he is like, "What the fuck?" But then he is like, "Fuck it, lets fuck!"
He takes out his frustration on Trevor's more than willing asshole. By the time he is done he has unloaded every ounce of sperm into his butthole. Then he gets this really crazy idea. He wonders what it'd be like to eat it back out.
Suite 703 is one of the premier gay porn studios. They always get the biggest names in gay porn and they use high production standards. What you end up with is quality gay porno worthy of the big screen. Hey, a guy can dream right?
My straight friend just read that review and said, "Fuck me!" Haha, I told him to watch what you ask for. You just might get it. LOL

When you are looking for wall-to-wall gay hunks nothing tops the men you will find at Kristen Bjorn. The site is owned and operated by one of the most prolific gay actors turned producers: Kristen Bjorn.
Kristen has a Russian mother and a British father. He grew up in Washington D.C. and enjoyed all of the flamboyance America has to offer. After landing in San Francisco in 1978 he became immersed in the openly gay culture. Mr Bjorn was an instant hit as a gay model for magazines.
Few porn actors have what it takes to be a director, but Kristen has a knack for shooting raw footage with amateur talent. He prefers the up and comers to using professional actors in his movies. His attention to detail and his desire to make real gay videos shows!
Take the Kristen Bjorn tour and immerse yourself in all of the ripply muscles!

Tony Serrano is used to being the most interesting man in the room. Even when the room is only filled with men. Straight guys and gay guys alike are always telling him he doesn't look like a typical gay guy. Maybe that is because he isn't a typical gay guy? He is a spicy Latino pepper!
Red Hot Latinos is filled with the hottest guys from South of the border. We are talking guys that make you wonder, "Why are you doing porn? You should be doing Two and a Half Men!"
Lets just be happy they are here with us at
Red Hot Latinos
Wow! What a baby face on that boy on the left!
Broke Straight Boys gives college guys the cash they need to survive. These two are repeat players so I am not sure if you can really call them straight anymore! haha
CJ and Tyler enjoyed their videos they made with other guys and both of them had no problems getting hard and sucking the other one off. The producer figured he'd pair both of them up and see just how fast these two cutie pies could work their magic!
As predicted it didn't take them long to jump right into the action. I guess you could call them naturals except that they won't come out of the damn closet and both insist they still like girls. Well, I am willing to bet that the only thing they like about girls is anal sex because once you fuck a guys asshole you don't want a stretched out pussy anymore!
There are over 340 straight boys in the archives appearing in over 500 videos! A new video is uploaded weekly and you also get access to the entire Bonus Boys Sites network! Sites like HS Boys and College Boy Physicals will have you wondering why you didn't go queer a lot sooner!

It shouldn't be hard to find in the first timer in this video from Boys First Time. He is the kid looking for a pussy and finding a set of well groomed balls instead!
It doesn't take Skyller long (no pun intended) to figure out what he is supposed to be doing and before long he has all of JR's huge cock deep in his throat!
Skyller always wondered if he could deep throat a cock and never thought he'd actually get a chance to see if he could do it. Growing up in a good Christian family, Skyller was all set to get married and asked his soon-to-be-wife for one night to do as he pleased… She figured he meant a bachelor party, but she wasn't thinking about anything like this!
Boys First Time gives you an uninhibited look at young guys trying gay sex for the first time. Some enthusiastically throw themselves at that hard cock and others need a little coaxing. Either way, in the end, they all turn out satisfied!

"Understanding, that worrying was draining and unreasonable arrives in course of time," said U. sitting himself with the air of a stranger.
And U. was not a stranger in our house. Today he was very polite, as frightened men frequently are. We both, I and my mom, were visited with the same unpleasant sensation at that moment – worry, like the rippling of water in a silent place, glimmered faintly in his pale blue eyes.
U.'s eyes were sharp, noticing everything, skipping nothing. A round face, shiny black hair, and old fashioned half-whiskers. A friend to our house, a brother to my mom, a confidante to me. He was quick at understanding the teenagers who spoke their own language of youth, and the most reticent and distrustful of them would tell him their story without realizing they were doing so. But his own daughters seemed to get more and more distant and solemn with him.

[the_ad id="4424″]
1) Make a Whole Understanding of Your 'Why'
U. had two twin-teenage daughters whom he raised without mother, she died when they were only three years old.
N. and M. were as different in their inner nature as they were alike in their outer looks. N. was rather more complex than M. She was fanciful with all sorts of unspoken preferences and was easily offended, her velvety green eyes filled with tears at every trifling misfortune. M., on the contrary, at almost any disappointment or displeasure would lift her chin and bear it silently.
Both of them at their 16 now were getting even with the life of love-adventure. That was the major reason for sleepless nights and days full of anxiety for their father.
Read more: Discover the Things That Push You Forward and Make You Rise Faster Than the Nature
Figure out 'why' you worry so much. Intently look at the true reasons for your worry. It may be a slight thing that disturbs your equanimity or a major distractive force that frails your mind – in any case, you need to form a clear understanding of what you are dealing with.
2) Piece Your Worry Out
U. was quick to anger, quick to laughter, and kind and loving from the depth of his soul. His daughters used to confide in him with every life adventure. But now they were growing into little ladies and needed a woman's… mother's guidance. He felt the need for a gentle touch in their upbringing all the way during his faithful-to-his-dear-wife life. The same sudden recognition flashed into his mind more and more often now.
U. noticed that with him his daughters would restrain their speech and manners out of some secretive modesty. They hated the superior tone that he sometimes took with them, trying to reason and caution.

[the_ad id="4425″]
Turn the power of reason on. The wealth of your mind should piece out every worrisome thing in your life and make a full list of what you need to confront. Analyze the list. This intelligence is refreshing. It gives you an ability to look at the things that disturb you so in a more distant and broad way.
3) Embrace Uncertainty
His daughters resented U.'s protective manner. Now they had only their girlish fanciful minds to batter at the world with. He consoled himself with the belief that he had managed to instill in them the endurance to go through life trials, but he feared that their open-to-love hearts may get bruised on the way to more mature understanding of relationships.
N. and M. were tossed down blindfold on that life of emotion. To predict what it would make of them was impossible. The vital essence, the throb of it, the light restlessness – rising suddenly, sinking suddenly, impulsive and playful – they needed to taste it with their own taste buds.
Read more: Secrets of Recovering Your Balance After a Devastating Loss: Sorrow, Calamity and Healing in One Story
[the_ad id="4428″]
Accept the uncertainty fulcrum. Everything in life comes in perfect time. We need to admit it and welcome every change and challenge rather than feel dread and fear. We grow and become stronger sometimes with the help of things we can explain, and very often with things we are not able to comprehend at all. And to predict which of them would become a happy or a sad coincidence is impossible – and that, exactly that makes life so interesting.
4) Become Handy with Distractive Tools
U. was walking slowly, dragging his feet along as if he had a great weight on his shoulders. His daughters were the only salvation for him. He needed to divert his thoughts to something completely different, something that could rose the old man from the torpor of worry in which he seemed to live now. My mother was a wise woman and a good friend to her older brother. She reasoned with him, instilling in his mind the understanding that every step his daughters took toward love added to them strength and expansion as individuals.
My mother said that there was no purpose in tossing the days in a sort of monotonous agitation as there was no way to stop the natural process of girls' awakening sensuousness. She had me and my sister to think about and she chose to trust and respect rather than worry and question our self-esteem.

Change the way you relate to worry and anxiety. Make every effort possible to add meaning and pleasure to your life. Fill your free time with the activities you enjoy the most. Read interesting books and watch fascinating movies, listen to nice music and enjoy your most admirable hobby. Distract your mind from the thoughts that make you feel uncomfortable.
5) Consider Overestimation that Resides in Every Worry
U. needed to call back to his memory the days of his early youth, the recollections of first love when there was not a particle of earth beneath his feet, the resentment at the face of any amount of reason that his parents were trying to thrash into him. He could make his authority felt and lock his girls at home, not letting them wonder with their friends after school – that would only invite violence and protest – U. knew it too well.
His daughters were merging into their teens. Soon enough they would be grown young women and to get to this point they needed to acquire experience that only heartfelt affairs could give.

Remember that it is never as bad as you may think it to be. Often, we have a tendency to overexaggerate things. And when looked upon more closely it appears not as bad at all. We are not properly suited to judge things in our lives. A misfortune may happen to be a happy coincidence and we may not recognize it at the time. In any case, we need to make mistakes to be able to apprehend the deeper undercurrents of life – this way we grow and thrive.
6) Say a Lot to the Purpose
I was on friendly terms with M. and N. Sitting together, exchanging occasional words, glances and smiles, we indicated a certain advanced stage of intimacy and camaraderie. That friendship produced a consoling effect on U.'s worrisome mind. His girls spent a lot of time in our house, talking to me, my sister, and our mother. That was not the same as having their own loving and caring mother beside, but that still gave them an example of a mother-daughter relationship. They could ask my mother questions that were not destined to man's ears. The answers they received were full of dignity and depth of graceful and noble judgment.
U. also had a privilege to relieve his long-pent emotions and talk freely with my mother, his younger sister. She was able to balance the strange anxiety in his soul, solace his spirit, and soothe his ruffled temper with the company and conversation.

To talk about the things that bother you with someone you trust is the best way to come closer to understanding them better. Voiced, they lose some degree of frightening power over you. A feeling that you shared your worry with a beloved person consoles your heart and diminishes the weight of anxiety that holds your soul a prisoner. Talk about it, let your fear come out – it may dispel in the air or at least reduce in size.
Read more in my books
The time of agitated, burning heart and brain is left behind. U. is an affectionate grandfather to his many grandchildren. His beautiful and wise daughter M. is an ornament of true motherly love and daughterly devotion to the whole village. She came back from a big town with a child in her hands seeking retirement for her broken heart. An icy hand released her soul when she met a simple farmer, married him, and became a mother for four brothers to her little older girl.
U.'s other daughter N. became a famous writer – married to her books; constantly in love with her cats, niece, and nephews; and caring about every relation on a distant gift-giving manner. She remembers all the important dates and never fails to send a word and a present but rarely shows up herself, always faithful to her secluded way of life.

Figure out 'why' you worry too much. Make a list of things that trouble you and think them over. Talk to a friend and analyze your list through thoughtful conversation. Very often when your worry is brought to the light of day it appears not as fearsome and disappears, not able to withstand the amount of reason you thrash on it.
Exercise daily to make your body stronger, it will add flexibility not only to your limbs but to your mind as well. Learn to divert your thoughts from the worrisome ideas that may possess you. Drink less caffeine to minimize some tension on your nerves, get a soothing and calming herbal tea instead. Meditate and learn to see the beauty and charm in life around, relax your body and soul.
Never blame yourself. Be loving and caring towards your feelings. There is a solution to every problem. Get help from other people: your family, and friends – bring your worry to an end together.
Stay tuned…

What matters at the end is ingenuity
Sudhirendar Sharma
Bad news holds currency, subsuming whatever little good that lies littered around. That has been the way of life, lately. Had I not read hugely popular Factfulness by noted statistician Hans Rosling who stressed that one must strive to get the good things out in the public, it wouldn't have occurred to me to revisit the momentous weeks I had spent in Aleppo, before this historic oldest inhabited city was devastated beyond recognition in the unending war since 2012 in Syria – the citadel of civilization.
Aleppo's largest covered market, Al-Madina Souq, with its almost 13-km long and narrow alleys could belittle any modern shopping mall for the diversity of merchandise on offer, from luxury goods to raw silk, and from spices to carpets. The market also housed the heritage-tagged public bath, Hammam al-Nahhasin, as much known for its intricate wooden interiors of the Ottoman era as the exquisite modern facilities on offer to the bathers, both men and women.
My sweet memories of the city are embodied in the miniature but a perfect replica of The Lady Ninkharsag on my desk. That piece of memorabilia was sold to me as the Goddess of Prosperity by the young counter-girl at the Aleppo museum, which I later learnt was better known as the Goddess of Irrigation. Does irrigation in a dry region not lead to prosperity? In my solitude, I often speak to the goddess to help restore the war-ravaged region to its historic prosperity. Amen!
Need I say that not only the city but its women have been one-of-the-most beautiful. My Chinese colleague Wu would translate his appreciation for the native beauty – 'it is the frequency of beautiful women that makes it a distinct place'. I could not agree with him more as every second woman was as beautiful. Considered a deeply religious and conservative country, in contrast, its women were as comfortably shrouded in a burqa as snugly unveiled in the modern western outfits.
What was a crude cultural shock then was the ease with which I found women negotiating the purchase of most outrageous pieces of inner wears with the male salespersons. Forthright displays of scantily covered mannequins' with fishnet negligees, fake flowers adorned bikini sets, and G-strings with flimsy plastic mobile phones didn't raise any eyebrows. Someone had commented that even Madonna would blush to wear such all showing bawdy creativity with a wicked sense of humour.
Were the Middle East women more liberated then we had ever thought or were they at ease in celebrating their lives in private? Much later I found the answer in the research by two London-based Arab women, Rana Salam and Malu Halasa, who had revealed that it was an all-men fledgeling industry that gave the over-the-top lingerie choice to women both as a tool for sexual expression as well as a desperate defence against straying husbands. It had made Syria world-leader in kinkiest leisurewear.
There was more to learn from the Syrian way of life. For just ten local pounds, one could buy a pack of pre-cooked rotis (bread) at any grocery shop. My impression that such gesture by the state may have been towards the poor was shattered when my host had served the same rotis in my farewell dinner, telling me with pride that the state was compassionate towards its people – ensuring equity in food security through cooked food, and not raw grains.
It is hard to fathom how the world could transform such good news upside down, and persist with it.

5/2/12- Louisiana Team Gulps Up Our Trout
Today i was able to guide Kevin Cooley and his wife Laura from Louisiana for some back bay Speckled Trout. With the wind blowing a steady 17mph out of the Southeast we were limited where we could start our daylight search for the topwater hungry Trout. We were able to navigate our way to a great flat that was about 500 yards long, out of the wind and not far from the boat ramp. As i deployed the new Minn Kota Ipilot and started our stealthy approach to the shoreline i could see there was bait everywhere. After a little instruction on how to best use the topwater baits that were already rigged we all launched our lures in to the schools on mullet. It didnt take long and we were putting fish in the box. The bite eventually slowed on topwater so we switched to the Gulp baits and continued to crush the Trout that were all up an down one side of the flat. Total fish caught was around 30 with 14 nice Trout in the box. Kevin is an experienced angler and had no trouble eventually catching up to Laura's quick lead. Laura did absolutely fantastic and it was her first time using spinning tackle. I had a great time spending the day with the couple sharing recipes and telling stories about times on the back porch with family and friends. I look forward to fishing with Kevin and Laura again in the future and would like to send them a big "Thank You" for choosing Lost Bay Guide Service.
Lost Bay Fishing thought it would be fun to compile a map of the hometowns of past clients, below is the location of the client(s) that were a part of this specific trip. To see the map with all the past clients' hometowns click here ››

No weapons or ammunition are allowed in the residence halls or rooms at any time. Handguns may not be kept in the residence halls at any time. Anyone unlawfully possessing or using firearms, chemicals, fireworks, or explosives risks being reported to the appropriate law enforcement agency.
Hold Harmless Policy
The University of Montana Western administration and faculty agree that students will be held harmless for absences due to University sanctioned activities in so far as possible. All parties recognize that not all classes are amenable to alternative assignments and in some cases it is impossible to reschedule critical learning experiences. Though faculty has the final decision regarding the appropriateness of alternative assignments or experiences, in all cases they will make a good faith effort to accommodate.
Students should work with their advisors and potential faculty members to design student course schedules that minimize absences in those courses with learning experiences that present special challenges for replication at an alternative time.
Wherever possible, all student work should be completed before the end of the course block. If it is not possible for a faculty member to replicate a learning experience that produces similar critical learning outcomes to the missed experiences in a particular course within the same block, incompletes may need to be issued to the student until such time as suitable learning experiences, if possible, can occur. Final decisions regarding the appropriateness of assigning incomplete grades are made exclusively by the faculty.
This policy is effective so long as:
- The student provides both verbal and written communication to the faculty member or employer on Day 1 of any given block.
- The student is engaged in a University-sanctioned event necessitating the student's absence. Examples of such events include (but are not limited to) athletic activities, career fairs, and field experiences. The faculty member or employer must be able to verify this activity if so desired.
The student is not excused from academic work required for a course, but in these instances will be allowed to work with a faculty member or employer to alter deadlines, or complete alternate assignments, or make up work as assigned by the faculty member or employer in so far as possible.
Students will not be penalized for engaging in such activity and the faculty member or employer shall attempt to accommodate the student as long as the student provides for 1 and 2 above.
Students with complaints that a faculty member is not working under this policy must initiate the following procedure as soon as possible.
- Initial attempts to resolve the matter should be made in writing with the instructor/administrator, who shall have ten (10) working days to respond in writing.
- If further action is necessary, the student will next direct the grievance to the Dean of Students. The Dean of Students will convene a meeting involving the faculty member/administrator, the student, and a neutral mediator. The mediator will be designated to hear the case and help the parties communicate. The Dean of Students will provide guidelines for this mediation to all parties.
- If the mediation does not resolve the matter to the satisfaction of both parties, the written grievance and supporting documentation will be forwarded, by the Dean of Students within ten (10) working days of the mediation, to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, who shall have twenty (20) working days to act upon the complaint and/or assign the case to a campus committee for a recommendation. The assigned committee shall have twenty (20) working days to reach their conclusion(s) and recommend suitable action to the Chancellor.The Chancellor may refer the matter to the Affirmative Action Committee for review and recommendation.

Business of Design Week (BODW) will once again showcase a range of talent at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre
Now in its 17th year, Hong Kong's highly anticipated Business of Design Week (BODW) and its satellite events, which run from December 2 to 7, wrap up the calendar year for the city's design community. During the week-long affair, organised by the Hong Kong Design Centre since 2002, high-profile speakers and industry leaders from across the globe will gather, providing a platform for business and creative leaders to exchange valuable ideas, network, and explore new business opportunities.
Details for this year's event have just been released. Once again, the conference will bring some of the world's biggest names in the design business to Hong Kong. Last year's event was held in collaboration with the city of Melbourne; this year, the United Kingdom has been named as the official partner country, under the theme 'Design is Great – Britain and Northern Ireland'. Details of the theme have yet to be released.
The preliminary line-up of speakers for BODW includes an impressive list of award-winning and world-renowned designers, as well as talented movers and shakers from across the industry. Among those attending will be Edward Barber, and Jay Osgerby, co-founders of London-based industrial design firm Barber & Osgerby; Thomas Heatherwick, founder of Heatherwick Studio; Patrik Schumacher, principal of Zaha Hadid Architects; Marek Reichman, executive vice president and chief creative officer of Aston Martin Lagonda; Paul Thompson, vice chancellor of the Royal College of Art; Neville Brody, founder of Brody Associates; Nigel Carrington, vice chancellor of the University of the Arts London; Nick Mival, director of DCA Design International; Dong-Ping Wong, director of Food New York; and Laurent Boillot, founder of CHA LING.
The conference promises a great line-up across a wide range of disciplines. And if the names mentioned aren't enough, plenty more speakers will be announced in the coming weeks.
Launched last year, the BODW City Programme will run simultaneously with the event. This scheme is a creative community activation programme featuring festivals and happenings in and around Wan Chai and other districts in Hong Kong. As an extension of the main BODW event, it aims to foster collaboration between local designers, businesses and brands.
Running parallel to BODW and also in the convention centre is the Hong Kong Trade Development Councils' (HKTDC) annual DesignInspire event. DesignInspire is an annual showcase for emerging global talents in design, photography, architecture and fashion. The three-day event will feature an exhibition highlighting works from BODW's partner country, as well as innovative products, experimental installations and inspiring conversations. DesignInspire 2019 will be held from December 5 to 7, its third iteration.

Fire Building Hike
Crafting fire is an ancestral skill that is embedded within us.
Come join us on a daytime outing where we will practice our primitive fire-making skills,
gather in a talking circle and connect in the beautiful Elbow Valley.
We gather at the meeting spot (TBD).
Greetings, small intro, a little paperwork.
Hike along the river to find a fire-making spot.
Introduction to bow drill and primitive fire making.
Fire making begins!
See below 🙂
Fire is snuffed. We pack out what we packed in. Hike back to meeting spot.
What is a Talking Circle?
The circle is a dominant symbol in nature and represents the cycles of life. As we move into winter, it is a great time to reflect on our year and what we would like to carry forward into this long season ahead – and what we will leave behind.
The circle is a space for open communication. We will choose a topic, and a "talking stick" will be passed around. Whoever holds it has the floor to speak – the other members of the circle hold space and listen.
Each member is treated with respect for what they have to say and nothing is repeated outside of the circle. The talk is complete when everyone has had a chance to speak.

The Moody Blues have sold more than 70-million albums worldwide and have 14 platinum and gold records. The band has been in business for more than 40-years and is ready to set sail this April for the Moody Blues Cruise. This year, the Blues are not holding back. Lucky cruisers will not only get to see, hear, and meet the musical greats, but they will also get to be in the company of another rock legend, Roger Daltrey from The Who.
Justin Hayward, who has been with the band since 1966, recently stopped by to talk about the cruise, as well as the possibility of another Moody Blues album.
Q – Thank you, Justin, for chatting.
A – A pleasure. Thanks for the opportunity.
Q – The band will literally set sail this April 2-7 for the Moody Blues Cruise. It's titled, "Return to the Isle of Wight," which is an annual festival the Moody Blues played in 1969-1970. Now, this was before I was born, talk about the significance of the Moody Blues Cruise in relation to the Isle of Wight festival. Is there a correlation?
A – Our performance at the Isle Of Wight festival in 1970 is the only good quality 'snapshot' of the band 'live' in that era. Thank goodness Murray Lerner filmed our whole set and although I was very tired, with fighting roadies all around at the time, I knew it was good for us. There were a lot of mimed TV shows from that era so Murray's documentary 'Message to Love: The Isle of Wight Festival,' is the only real representative film of the band when we were just about to arrive at the top. I was pleasantly surprised when I heard the tapes (on six track, one of which was a film code – so just five really) and I mixed it easily without having to over-dup anything (impossible anyway as the drums were on every vocal mike). Thanks to Murray and Eagle Rock for finding the film.
We did both 1969 and 1970 festivals. Both were great for us – not so good for other groups or artists as the crowds were impatient, and the sights chosen were not great and some artists thought they could just breeze through it – get in and get out quickly.
In fact, nothing went to plan at either festival and a lot of the artists got upset and bad tempered. No one went on time and it certainly wasn't 'peace and love' backstage for sure. In 1970 we just had a huge hit with 'Question' a few weeks before and the crowd loved us. It was an hour of listening to their own English hit group.
Q – How did the idea of a cruise come about?
A – We were approached a couple of years ago about doing a Moody Blues cruise and at first we didn't go for the idea. Then we realized Moodies fans would love it. Just like the fans did when we played Caesars in the 80's and that sealed the deal.
Q – The band will be joined by another music legend, Roger Daltrey of The Who. How did this come about?
A – The Who were (for me) the biggest act on the Isle of Wight so we had to have Roger on the cruise!
Q – Will Roger be joining the band on stage? If so, will there be some Who songs on the set list?
A – I don't think Roger needs any help from us; he's a legend. So I don't know!
Q – This cruise really allows full access to the band. Being as successful as the Moody Blues have been, this type of access has to be great for fans. How is being this accessible from the band's standpoint?
A – We really enjoy the interaction with the fans and talking about the band's history.
Q – The Moody Blues have an insanely amount of songs in their historic career. How many shows will you be playing on the cruise?
A – We'll play two full shows on the cruise plus solo shows. Anything could happen.
Q – How do you determine which songs to play?
A – What to play is easy; it's what to leave out that's hard!
Q – The band's last album was back in 1999 called "Strange Times," not counting the Christmas album in 2003. Will there ever be another Moody Blues album?
A – Hope so.
Q – Before I let you go, how do you think you've evolved as a musician and person in your storied career as a member of the Moody Blues?
A – Listen to my album 'Spirits of the Western Sky.' It's all there.
Q – Thank you again for taking the time. I wish you best of luck with the tour.
A – Thank you so much. My best wishes.
This year's Moody Blues Cruise, sailing the Caribbean April 2-7 aboard the MSC Divina, is close to selling out. There are still a few cabins available and you must call to book: (855) 622-3111 (US/Canada) or (954) 417-6264 (International).

text: Robust economy underpins Australia's growth RSS Feeds 11 Apr 2019 Tags Edmund Tang Australian Economy Austrade's Benchmark Report 2019 puts forth five major reasons why Australia is a safe, low-risk destination to invest and do business. Let's examine the first reason: its robust economy. Growing 3.2% on average each year since 1992 (see chart below), Australia is the only major developed economy to have recorded no annual recessions from 1992 to 2018. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) remains positive on Australia's economic outlook. In its latest assessment, the IMF forecasts that Australia's real GDP will grow by an average rate of 2.7% per year from 2020 to 2024.[1] This projected growth rate is the highest among major advanced economies. The Australian economy's resilience is sustained by robust policy frameworks, strong institutions, a healthy government fiscal position and a sophisticated financial system. Our performance is also supported by an attractive investment environment and strong trade ties with the Asian region. Australia's impressive economic performance also reflects its smart people, sophisticated services sector, abundant natural resources, strategic location close to the dynamic Asian region, and agility to adapt to changes in the global economy. Asia: Driving Australian and global growth The Asia-Pacific region is not only strategically important for Australia, but also for the global economy. The IMF is forecasting that the Asia-Pacific region's share of global GDP in terms of purchasing power parity valuation will double to over 45% (US$177 trillion) by 2023. Over the same period, the combined economies of China and India will likely represent over 30% of the world's GDP, up from around 6% four decades ago (see chart below). Australia's proximity to and strong trade and investment ties with Asia mean we are well placed to benefit from the region's growth and demand for high-quality goods and services. A services-based economy The Australian economy is more diversified than its export basket might suggest, with the combined services sector accounting for over three-quarters of real industry output. The services sector's significant contribution to output is the result of Australia's successful transition to broader-based drivers of economic growth. Adjustments in interest rates, changes in the Australian exchange rate, and moderate wage growth are all working to shift resources from mining-related sectors to service sectors. Overall, Australia's services sector has grown by an average of 3.6% per year since 1992. Information Media and Telecommunications; Professional, Scientific and Technical Services; and Financial and Insurance Services have all risen by an average of over 4.5% a year over the same period. This means Australia's output has been largely driven by technology- and knowledge-intensive service sectors (see chart below). Healthy fiscal position In April 2019, the Australian Government announced a A$7.1 billion surplus in its 2019–20 Budget, the first in 12 years. In response to our improving budgetary position and strong economic management, Standard & Poor's has again confirmed Australia's AAA credit rating. Australia is now one of only 10 countries with a AAA credit rating from all three major credit rating agencies. The following chart demonstrates the Australian public sector's healthy financial position. The IMF in its Fiscal Monitor estimated that the Australian Government's net debt would be around 19% of GDP in 2019, well below the 74% forecast for advanced economies as a group. The IMF is predicting that Australian Government debt will further fall to 15% of GDP by 2023, while the average debt ratio of advanced economies will remain high at about 73% of GDP (see chart below). Look out for the next analysis in our Benchmark series, where we take an in-depth look at the dynamic industries that are powering Australia's growth. For further economic commentary and analysis of the major trends and events that shape Australia's trade and investment performance, visit Economics at Austrade. ____________________ [1] In its World Economic Outlook April 2019, the IMF is projecting a 2.1% growth rate for Australia in 2019. However, the IMF projects that Australia's economic growth rate will likely rebound to 2.8% in 2020 and remain at around 2.7% a year from 2021 to 2024.

To read the latest wider learning bulletin click here
Our first bulletin of this academic year celebrates some great achievements including Sports Results, upcoming opportunities in Languages and Drama as well as a successful Y11 Construction trip.
To celebrate Black History Month in October, we had a fantastic external speaker programme with four influential external speakers delivering inspiring talks to students, a Caribbean cooking class and the Black History Showcase, which was a real success. Thank you to parents, family and friends who supported this event and contributed refreshments to serve after the showcase, which was very much enjoyed by all. The money raised from the showcase will be donated to Descendants, a charity who provide a wide range of community workshops and projects to support children and young people of African and Caribbean descent in West London.

About Him
Living… in Santa Carla, California. Sam used to live in Phoenix, but his mom, his older brother and he have moved into his Grandpa's house – which is majorly creepy. There are dead animals everywhere (Grandpa's a taxidermist), and there's not even any TV. As he protests, "Do you know what it means when there's no TV? No MTV!" Sam's not too pleased about that. Nor is he pleased about the fact that Santa Carla's apparently the murder capital of the world.
Profession… student on vacation. No school until the end of summer. In the meantime, though, Sam's new acquaintances, the Frog brothers, are trying to recruit him into their line of work. What is that exactly? They claim to fight the undead. Well, it seems to be the only thing going on in Santa Carla, so Sam might as well play along.
Interests… pop culture. The Frog brothers might call him a "fashion victim," but Sam's got a lot more going on than just clothing. He has encyclopedic knowledge of comics, and he also likes movies and live music. There's an arcade on the Boardwalk, which is pretty cool. Lately, though, the Frog brothers' obsession with vampires has become one of his main interests as well.
Relationship Status… none. Sam still sleeps in the same bed as his mom when he gets scared. He's not going to be making a move on anybody anytime soon. In fact, when he's dragged along on his brother Michael's quest to find a pretty girl, he complains, "I'm at the mercy of your sex glands, bud."
Challenges… figuring out what's happened to his brother. Usually they get along pretty well, but recently Michael has been acting really strange. The Frog brothers are convinced he's become a vampire, and Sam is starting to believe it too. But what do you do when your brother's a vampire? You can't just kill him, right? But what if he tries to kill you first?
Personality… talkative, funny, and lively. Sam is a master of the one-liner. He also walks the fine line between loving his brother and being terrified of him. Whichever direction he's leaning at the moment, he's not the type to just sit around and wait for things to develop.

Sparks, NV. – Award-winning brewer, Jeremy Warren, is comfortable being bold – whether he is creating hop forward beers or opening his new brewery. Thus, it should be no surprise that after failing to reach a lease agreement on the Riverside property in West Sacramento, he has boldly "revised" his plans for a brewery location and will now open his production facility and taproom in Sparks, Nevada.
On June 24, 2016 Revision Brewing Company (RBC) signed a lease at 380 S. Rock Boulevard in Sparks, Nevada. Greg Shutt, RBC's real estate broker and Vice President of Colliers International said, "Working with Revision Brewing was as refreshing as their beer […] these are astute business people. Prior to previewing buildings, RBC set up a shared Dropbox that contained [… information that was] extremely helpful in securing a space and had all of the information a typical landlord would need to [become] comfortable with their company. This information undoubtedly shaved 30 days off of the process of finding and securing a facility. In the end, the space was found and the lease signed in roughly two weeks."
Prior to Revision Brewing Company, Warren was the founder, former co-owner and Brewmaster at Knee Deep Brewing Company, of which he parted ways in July 2015. With Revision Brewing Company, Warren will expound on the bold IPAs, DIPAs, and 3x IPAs that he is renowned for and then he will branch into creating experimental barrel-aged and sours beers. Revision Brewing Company has plans to distribute in California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, North Carolina and Georgia in 2017.
Revision Brewing Company will only be a five-minute drive from downtown Reno. Frank Lepori, the building owner in Sparks, Nevada has been very benevolent and accommodating to Revision Brewing Company in the leasing process. RBC was so pleased with the ease of working with Lepori that they will continue the relationship by partnering with Lepori Construction for the brewery build-out. "We feel that Revision Brewing Company will enhance all the great events that the Reno – Sparks area already offers and wish them all the best. It has been a pleasure working with Jeremy, his staff and the City of Sparks," commented Lepori. He emphasized that they are looking forward to having a new and innovative company such Revision Brewing Company join the community.
RBC will be open to the public at the end of 2016. The brewery will accommodate a three vessel, twenty-barrel brewhouse and will produce 5,500 barrels the first year and grow to 15,000 barrels within five years. Greg Shutt remarked, "If RBC's preparation and thoughtfulness are any indication of their potential success, they will be a great asset to Northern Nevada for many years to come."
