1 H O W T O P REP A R E A N A CCORDING TO SPEAKING CONSULTANT Lilyan Wilder (1999), two of the greatest myths about delivering oral presentations are that you re better off winging it and that good speakers are naturals. In order to give an effective presentation, it is necessary to prepare and practice, practice, practice. Despite the need to prepare, one of your goals still should be to sound spontaneous and comfortable while delivering your message in a clear, organized, and stimulating fashion. The information below should help you achieve this goal: First steps There are a few steps you need to take before writing your presentation, including thinking about who your audience is and the expectations for the speech are, and selecting an appropriate topic. Organizing and writing the speech This requires a different approach than writing a research paper. Practicing the speech and handling logistics There are a number of details to prepare for in advance of delivering your presentation. Phrasing the speech A presentation requires different language and phrasing than a written document. A presentation is a dialogue. It should sound natural and be somewhat conversational. Managing your stage fright If you are shy, or unaccustomed to talking to a group of people, there are things you can do to make yourself less anxious. Visual aids There are a few things to keep in mind when using visual aids. The big event It s important to present yourself and your material in a polished, yet comfortable, fashion. If you ve followed the ideas listed above, it should be a successful experience. 1
2 PRELIMINARY STEPS FOR PREPARING AN ORAL PRESENTATION Analyzing the situation B EFORE YOU DECIDE on a topic for your speech, it s important to think about how to make your presentation interesting to your teacher and classmates. This may sound obvious, but have you looked at the material that you ve covered so far in class? How could you relate what you want to say to what s already been taught? Relating your material to information your audience is already familiar with will not only demonstrate to the teacher that you ve been paying attention, it will also help your classmates understand and remember your points. Example: If you ve examined a particular novelist in your literature class, you may want to refer to that novelist again in your talk on literary styles. Know how much time you have, how loudly you will need to speak for your classmates to hear you, and how many people will be in the audience. These facts will help determine the depth of your talk, the visual aids you can use, and the environment for your presentation. Choosing a topic and a focus Choose a topic that excites you and about which you either are an expert or can become one. You may not have a choice about your topic, but regardless of the subject, you still make decisions about what direction you re going to take. Try to relate your topic to current issues, whether they are happening at your school, in your city, or in the world. Timeliness can make a presentation more interesting to your audience. In order to focus on a topic, follow these steps: Determine your general goal, e.g., to talk about recycling in the city. Develop a precise objective, e.g., to instruct people about the recycling facilities and programs in the city of Chicago. Develop a one-sentence summary, e.g., There are many recycling facilities in the city of Chicago that are not fully used. Develop a title, e.g., The Underuse of Chicago s Recycling Facilities. Although there may be some overlap, try to decide what your main goal will be. This will help give your paper direction and consistency. Some important main goals include: Interest Inform Persuade Motivate 2
3 Researching the Topic If you are presenting something that you ve already written, then this step won t require much work. Otherwise, you ll need to follow the same procedures as with writing and narrowing down your topic for a research paper. Collect more information than you think you need. As you prepare your presentation, you will whittle away at your notes and tighten your focus. Organize your information the same way that you would for a research paper. Recommendation: Read through your finished notes and label each section with a number or word that tells you where each thought fits into your outline (discussed in the next section of this Guide). Then, when you start to flesh out your presentation, you can quickly skim and organize your notes. ORGANIZING AND WRITING THE SPEECH D EVELOPING AN ORAL presentation is different than writing a report that will be read silently. The audience can t turn back to the first part of your speech and examine what you said. That s why speakers often repeat themselves throughout their presentations. The informal formula for public speaking is First, tell the audience what you are going to tell them; then tell them; then tell them what you just told them. You should follow this same mantra when structuring the notes that will serve as the basis for your oral presentation. Not only should you repeat some things, but you should also be extremely organized, so your listeners can easily follow what you say. The first step to take before writing your speech is to create an outline. Write down three to four main points, fill them in with subheadings, and then add third-level subheadings. Make each point a complete sentence. This skeletal structure will be the outline for your other notes, and eventually, the speech itself. Most word processing software includes an outlining feature, which may help. Suggested organization: Introduction In addition to your main points, you need an introduction and a conclusion. The introduction should capture the audience s attention and warm you up. Some experts recommend humor, but exercise caution; if your joke falls flat, you immediately lose your audience. It s better to start on a genuine note. Some suggestions (Dodd, 1997) for introductions include: Refer to a local event or a recent event in the news Tell a personal story, preferably one that is humorous Read a quote Ask a question Refer to something that s just happened in class No matter which of these devices you use, they should be tied somehow to your topic. Make a statement that somehow connects the introduction to the body of the talk. 3
4 Main points Include at least three or four main points. Conclusion Either end with a concluding statement or invite questions, or both. When you end your speech, only use the words in conclusion, finally, or one more thing if you are really finished. Also, don t end your speech suddenly without recapping what you ve said (remember to remind your audience of what you ve just told them). PRACTICING THE SPEECH AND HANDLING LOGISTICS Y OU SHOULD PRACTICE your speech at least once before you present it. Practice in an environment that is as similar as possible to where you ll be giving the presentation. Practice in front of people and use your visual aids. Your talk should be a combination of entertainment, information, and intellectual stimulation, all delivered with a spontaneous and comfortable feel. The following guidelines will help you achieve this: Do not memorize a paper and deliver it verbatim. You may want to memorize certain small sections, and you will want to know the order of your presentation by heart, but the goal is to sound natural. Reading lines does not sound spontaneous unless you re a really good actor. Write in large, boldface letters, regardless of whether you use note cards or regular paper for your notes. In order to engage your audience, you should look up from your paper or notes several times during the presentation, and you don t want to lose your place when you look back down at the text. Using note cards makes it easier to find your place, but some people don t like flipping through cards. Try recording yourself and listening to the tone, pitch, and speed of your voice. Work on sounding natural and relaxed. Pause naturally as you would in conversation. Practicing your speech out loud can help you clarify your thoughts. As you practice, don t be afraid to add ideas or change what you ve planned. You may want to add directions on your notes like slow down, look at the audience, and remember to pause. These will remind you to do the things that are sometimes hard to remember during the excitement of speaking in front of a group. Logistics If you re going to use any kind of equipment, make sure that everything is in working order before you arrive for your presentation. Try to anticipate what problems might arise, and how to solve them. For example, what will I do if the computer crashes? Or, what will I do if the person who speaks before me takes up too much time, and I have to shorten my speech? Be prepared for all the possible things that can go wrong. If you re not giving your presentation in a familiar location (like your classroom), check out the space before the day of your presentation so you know how big the room is and what kind 4
5 of technical options are available (and functioning). Will you need a microphone? Is there an Internet hook-up? Do the electrical outlets and lights work? How are they controlled? If you will need a projection screen, is there one already in the room? If so, how does it work? These are all important details. PHRASING THE SPEECH Y OU SHOULD USE different language for an oral presentation than you would for a research paper. A speech should not sound as formal as a report. Remember that you re talking, and that people will respond better when the language is familiar. Here are a few ways in which oral communication differs from written (Dodd, 1997): More audience-specific More interactive More immediate More personal More informal More opportunities to use visual communication Not only is the style of a presentation different from that of a paper, but the language is as well. Here are a few considerations for phrasing your oral presentation: Use conjunctions they sound more natural. Use vocabulary that will be understood. Your audience won t have time to look up unfamiliar words. Use enumeration to tie your points together. (i.e., First I would like to discuss this issue. Second ) Use parallel construction in your phrasing to help the audience follow what you re saying. Use personal pronouns and refer to yourself and the audience. Interject ideas and comments make it personal! Ask occasional questions. With all of this advice about what you should say, it s easy to forget one of the most important tips of all do not be afraid of silence! Pause occasionally. MANAGING STAGE FRIGHT A RECENT STUDY suggests that people unfamiliar with communication theory think that stage fright is caused mostly by what happens during the speech (Bippus & Daly, 1999). In actuality, what happens before the speech affects your state of mind as much if not more than the speech itself. In other words, practicing and preparing are two of the best ways to eliminate stage fright. 5
6 Overcoming Stage Fright Practice in a place or situation as similar as possible to where you will be giving your talk. This includes practicing in front of people, preferably classmates. Watch or listen to other speeches, either in person or through (audio or video) recordings. Take note of what works and what doesn t. Use mental imagery to picture yourself in front of an audience. Try to become comfortable with the idea. Before you practice, and again before you deliver your presentation, perform voice and breathing exercises to warm up your vocal cords. If your hands shake, hold on to something like a small object, a pointer, or a lectern. Have water with you if possible, both during practice and while presenting. Take pauses and breathe normally. Try to establish a dialogue with the audience. This will make the whole experience feel more natural. VISUAL AIDS W HEN YOU CREATE and display visual aids during an oral presentation, there are a few general principles that you should follow. Keep it simple Use color, but not too much Color accelerates learning and recall by 55% or more and comprehension by 70% (Dodd, 1997). But too much color can be distracting. Break complex ideas into simpler visual parts If you plan to show a complex idea visually, break the image into smaller, less complicated parts. An overlay is a possible option. Show = Discuss Do not show anything that you don t plan to discuss. Explain what s in each graphic. Do not talk at your visual aid Direct your presentation toward the audience and refer to your images with a pointer or pen. Steady hands If your hands are shaky, a pointer, pen, or pencil will help steady you. You can use the following options, but beware of the problems associated with each: Overheads are simple and clear, and you don t have to depend on a computer. They can, however, get out of order, have poor print quality, and cause other problems if the transition between each one is not smooth. If you are able, have someone else be responsible for turning your overheads during your presentation, so you can concentrate on speaking and directing the overall presentation. 6
7 PowerPoint or similar slide-show software programs can produce professional-looking presentations. You can store your presentation on a disk and carry it with you, and it s also easy to make changes to your presentation. However, using such software does force dependence on computer technology, and if the computer crashes, or if there are other technology problems, you won t have your slide-show. Therefore, when you use such software, always have available alternative visuals such as overheads or paper handouts. Slides give you clear images of photographs and also allow for easy change in the order of your presentation. However, they can be expensive, and you can t change the images once they re created. Whiteboards and paper are convenient if you feel comfortable writing your points in front of the audience. They also let you be spontaneous and incorporate feedback from the audience. However, they don t look as professional as other media, and they force you to spend a lot of time writing when you should be talking (often with your back to the audience). Handouts are an excellent accompaniment to any of the options listed above, but they can also pose their own problems. If you distribute them at the beginning of your presentation, you risk losing your audience s attention; their attention may turn to the handout rather than following what you are saying. Nevertheless, having the audience follow along with the handout can be a successful strategy. You can also pass out a summary of your speech that the audience can take away with them. A final option is to pass out handouts to support the information you bring up as you talk. However, this can also deflect attention away from you, and cause the audience to miss pertinent points. Be sparing with handouts, but understand that they can be instrumental in helping the audience remember your speech. THE BIG EVENT I N ADDITION TO some common sense tips like getting a good night s sleep the night before and eating breakfast here are some other helpful ideas. Warm up with breathing and vocal exercises. Take a deep breath before walking to the front of the room. Walk slowly to the front, pause, and look at the audience before speaking. Learn to be comfortable with the sound of your voice. Remember to pause. Focus on the audience, not your notes or visual aids. Try to change the tone of your speech periodically to keep the audience s attention. When it s all over, ask for feedback, and remember that this is a learning experience. You ll continue to become a better public speaker the more times you go through this process. 7

Check out today's YEP letters.
Don't moan about cash we got
Jaimes Lewis Moran, Seacroft
Is the cycle highway ambition really such a white elephant, especially considering how long overdue 'any' cycling infrastructure has been?
True, you could say equal attention must be paid to poor road conditions and other infrastructure overhauls, but in the end aren't they all essential either way? Yet once again people overlook the fact that 'the money used was strictly for cycling' so instead of complaining about the money Leeds 'did' get, how about the money it didn't receive; (from central government) like the much needed flood defenses, ring-fenced money previously for that ludicrous trolleybus dream (which must be bid for – again...) or more importantly, devolved mayor powers to make local decisions!
City care home judgements just not good enough
Coun Peter Gruen, Chair of the Adult Social Services, Public Health and NHS Scrutiny Board, Leeds City Council
When, last year, the Leeds Health Scrutiny Board first started to monitor the CQC ( Care Quality Commission) ratings handed out to Residential and Nursing Care Homes, we were alarmed.The first few batches of such judgements showed that, in Leeds, only approximately 50 per cent of homes were accorded a 'good' judgement. The other 50 per cent were found to either 'Require Improvement' or to be 'Inadequate'.
At that time we were advised that these early inspections concentrated on establishments where there were some concerns and we should expect later judgements to be more positive.
I am afraid these aspirations have not materialised.
The latest three month batch of CQC results, between April and July 2016, shows that out of 60 inspections there were 33 'Good' judgements, 26 'Requires Improvement' judgements, and one 'Inadequate' judgement.
It is reassuring that, where in a few cases further action became necessary, the Council's Adult Care Service has suspended placements to homes.
Sadly therefore there is a continuing trend which is causing the Scrutiny Board much concern.
The fact that only 50 per cent of private sector provision is deemed to be good, is simply not good enough.
The reasons for such sluggish performance are also consistent – inferior leadership, insufficient care and quality and not sufficiently good relationships with residents.
We know that we all at some stage have to make the most difficult and emotive decisions about our loved ones and determine whether or not they can stay independent at home or need increased care and security.
Our burden would be eased if we were reassured that those care homes close to us will offer 'good' or perhaps even 'outstanding' care.
There is one bright note that all three of the council-run homes were recently re-inspected and achieved 'Good' ratings.
So the lesson is that it can be done and I call on the private providers to be fair with Leeds residents and up their commitment, leadership, supervision and resource – until they do our Scrutiny Board will continue to challenge the disappointing results.
Free bus pass is my wage!
Maggie Lake, by email
I've just got home from 'work' – only six hours today. Another six eight-hour shifts on Wednesday and that's me done for the week (apart from some litter collecting). No wages as such. Though I do think of my Bus Pass as a bit of a wage! Being able to use my bus pass and not have to have the charity pay my fares to and from 'work' is a good bonus.
Having done this voluntary work since I retired four years ago, let me assure your readers that I, and thousands like me, make excellent use of the bus pass.
I also love travelling to small towns in Yorkshire – Horbury last week for tea and the bookshop, Lovely!
Stop the free pass crusade
Richard Wade, by email
I see that Mr Keer, and his two supporters the Ingles, have mounted their tired old hobby horse for another trip out of middle earth, to continue their tired old crusade against the evil bus pass owners who are getting free travel and those who are actually only going one stop, forcing the bus to keep stopping and starting again.
The drivers must be incensed at having to keep stopping at bus stops (I thought that was the point of them).These crusaders seem to be under the sad illusion that if the bus passes were removed, the country's financial problems, and the abysmal bus services would be solved.
All that is needed is proper funding from the government, and a better managed bus service.
But wait awhile – the YEP has asked for the readers' opinions so you may be able to gather some more support for your campaign.
Chewing over a litter problem
Johnathon Marchant, by email
It's always good to read about Leeds City Council cleaning our streets(YEP, September 2).
A gang of four council workers using hi-power jet-washing tools to rid the pavement of chewing gum in readiness for the new Victoria Gate shopping centre.
My personal bugbear would be litter and people not taking care of their gardens.
Surely this is a much easier and cheaper problem to deal with. Do people walk around looking at the gum on the pavement?
Water? Mine's a pint... or two
Alan Thompson, Bramhope
I'm always amused when I see local joggers on a two-mile circuit grasping their water bottles for dear life and taking regular sips to stop themselves from becoming dehydrated.
Poor souls. They are victims of the publicity machines from the bottled water companies.
I sometimes feel a bit dehydrated at the end of a long walk, but a couple of pints of local bitter at the end of the day puts things right.
Send Olympic cash to A&E
Rita Joy, LS16
Perhaps now our wonderful Team GB have had such success at the Olympics with the help of Lottery backing, these monies could be directed to our wonderful NHS.
The need has never been greater with operations being cancelled and sad stories of patients waiting to be seen at A&E.
The difference this could make to our health service would make it the envy of the world once more
Customers are important asset
Ivan Kovacks, by email
No wonder, I thought yesterday, when listening to or reading various news items on the lagging productivity of the UK, we always show to be falling well behind the American, Germans and ever the French!
Over the last week I contacted three different companies, all for various reasons including wanting to give them money.
And each time the person on the phone was attentive, polite and played at being helpful.
However, none were able to offer any real help but swore blind they knew a person who could and also said that someone would phone me back the same day.
No doubt you can already guess how many return calls I got – yes, you're right, none!
Despite making second, and in one case third, calls no one from any of these organisations has phoned me back and all my issues are still unresolved.
Clearly all the people I talked to have no real care for the jobs that they are doing, they just go through the basic motions and do the minimum required.
Until employees like these develop some real work ethic, care for their jobs and more importantly actually help the customers, we will continue to lag behind all these other countries in any productivity rating.
What these companies must understand is that the customers are the most important asset they have and keeping them happy and well serviced will maintain their loyalty and continued custom.

Best attorney ever
I had a case and Mr. Grindal was wonderful throughout the entire process. He and is staff were always professional. I would definitely recommend this attorney to anyone who has a worker's compensation accident. You don't realize how much you need an attorney until you hire one and especially if he is anything like Mr. Grindal.

January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month
Posted by pinkredribbon On January 28, 2016
By Guest Blogger, Meg Bertram, MPH Cervical cancer, the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide, is the leading cause of cancer mortality among women aged 15-44, in the Republic of Botswana. In 2012, the incidence of cervical cancer in Botswana was 29.0 cases of every 100,000 women, with a mortality rate of 23.1 of every 100,000 women. As a catalyst for reducing the global cancer burden through coordination, collaboration, and communication with a diverse range of international stakeholders, National Cancer Institute's Center for Global Health supports global activities to advance global cancer research, build expertise, and leverage resources across nations to address the challenges of cancer and reduce cancer deaths worldwide. Towards these aims, NCI has partnered with Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon, a global organization founded on public-private partnerships dedicated to saving women's lives by advancing prevention, screening, and treatment for breast and cervical cancer in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. In 2012, the Government of Botswana welcomed Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon and launched its national strategic plan for cervical cancer prevention and control, the 2012–2016 National Cervical Cancer Prevention Programme (NCCPP) Five-Year Comprehensive Prevention and Control Strategy, to combat the rising epidemic. With Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon and other donor support, the Government of Botswana's Ministry of Health (MoH) introduced a HPV vaccination campaign and an expanded screening for and treatment of cervical precancer, using a single visit ("See-and-Treat") approach. At the Ministry's request, NCI provided technical assistance in performing a mid-term evaluation of the strategy last summer. Upon arriving in Gaborone, Botswana, Mmakgomo Mimi Raesima, MD, the NCCPP Programme Coordinator told me that "We Run" — and did we ever! During my three-month tenure, the National Cervical Cancer Prevention Programme oversaw the National Launch of the "See-and-Treat" approach for cervical cancer, the roll-out of the second dose of the national HPV vaccination campaign, the transition of implementing partners, and site visits to Gaborone, Francistown, Mahalapye, Maun, and Lobatse See-and-Treat clinics. Since September, the mid-term review's findings have been used to review the strategic approach and make appropriate adjustments to the programme quality and impact. Botswana's seen tremendous success since 2012. More than 68,000 girls, aged 9-13 years, have received the first dose of HPV vaccination and thousands of women, ages 30-49 years old have been screened for precancerous lesions. Based on the government's high level of commitment to this effort, the programme's staff dedication, and support garnered from partners, the strategy will go a long way to save women's lives in Botswana. Meg conducted the mid-term evaluation of Botswana's NCCPP on behalf of Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon during her fellowship at NCI. Original blog post found on NCI CGH Spotlight Blog.

Isn't that Lex Luger's WCW theme playing? How'd they get away with that?!?
ENOUGH OF 1996 RAW AND NITRO ALREADY JESUS MANReplyDelete
I want to relive 1996 as much as possible! I was 16, I had my license, I had some pretty hot girlfriends, and I was livin' the dream!
ENOUGH OF THIS GUY ALREADY TOOReplyDelete
The best song of 1996 was of course, Spaceman by Babylon Zoo. I don't believe it even appeared in the PTBN's Best Song of the 1990's thing.ReplyDelete
Why do you look like Mike Seaver from Growing Pains in your avatar, and who is screaming in your ear?
The resemblance is striking, however that is of course AGENT DALE COOPER on the right, with BOB screaming in his ear.ReplyDelete
We deserve answers!ReplyDelete
So, on the most recent Live Nerdist podcast, someone asked if they'd interview more wrestlers. Hardwick said they'd like to, but who would be interesting to interview.
Iron Sheik was mentioned, to which the guys immediately turned down. They said they'd love to have the Rock on.
Anyone else you guys think they should get on?
TNA are doing that "next week" thing now, showing clips of next week's show at the end of Impact. I'm not a fan.
That said, I'm finding Impact unwatchable anyway due to the camera work, so no great loss.
But, yeah, 1996. X-Files is getting a bit shit.
I have no idea who either of those people are.
Is this some British thing? It's a British thing.
Really, by 96? Is that Season 3? I thought X Files was smashing it then. Think it probably should have ended in 98 maybe.ReplyDelete
It's Twin Peaks, Matt!ReplyDelete
Oh. Yeah. Okay. Laura Palmer. Got it.ReplyDelete
1996 is the best year ever for wrestling, mostly because of ECW, however.ReplyDelete
How dare you.ReplyDelete
Lex Luger's WCW theme (like Goldberg's) is a stock theme. Think "freelance music", where it's written, and wrestling companies can pick it up for themes, or the History network can pick it up for WWII dramas.
On this note, Lex's 1996-1998 theme and Goldberg's WCW theme are fucking badass and suit the characters to a tee.
Good man. The funking dress is blue and black!ReplyDelete
I was just going to post this. Another common example of this is Marvelous Marc Mero and either Joe Gomez or The Renegade having the same production song for a theme. Also - Benoits first WCW theme was often used by Fox in commercials for their prime time shows.ReplyDelete
If that dress looks blue and black to you, you need to brighten your monitor up a bit.ReplyDelete
What's this about a dress now?ReplyDelete
TNA shows clips from the following week also now.ReplyDelete
White and gold btw .ReplyDelete
TNA could show clips of October's Impact at this rate. SPOILER - Tommy Dreamer's there.ReplyDelete
100% Blue and Black - the manufacturer says so:
Some of the reviews are quite funny, though :)
Season 4 started in 96 and I personally thought it was on the downward curve at this point (working from memory). I loved the show for the first 2-3 seasons but hate stuff that gets stale (like a big chunk of the current WWE roster)ReplyDelete
Standing on her momma's porch...she told you that she'd wait forever...ReplyDelete
A lot of WCW music was stock music. Jericho said his first theme was used for sports highlights, I've heard Lugers in random commercials. I think even the Hollywood Blondes theme I heard somewhere else.ReplyDelete
Additional spoiler: he's fat and emotionalReplyDelete
You're dyslexic.ReplyDelete
Those were the best days of his life.ReplyDelete
I'm sure both WWF and WCW were using Marc Mero's theme at the same time, WCW was using it for some jobber guys I thinkReplyDelete
The Brian Kendrick - was there nothing he couldn't do?!ReplyDelete
How is that not blue and black? What's the deal with this? Why is this a thing? Who started it?ReplyDelete
Some gimp with a shitty cameraphone took a photo with terrible exposure and white balance and it seems to have hit some sort of bizarre sweet spot in people's perception where - to many - it looks white and gold, because they're insane...ReplyDelete
It was a mixed bag for me by season 5. I still liked the stand-alone episodes, but I felt the aliens/government conspiracy stuff was all getting a bit too confusing and not really all that interesting.ReplyDelete
Ah, okay. This seems like a perfectly reasonable use of news and the internet.ReplyDelete
I used to hear the Hardy Boyz music on commercials all the time.ReplyDelete
That and Hardcore Holly's theme. Constantly featured in commercials on Spike, as well as any sciency type channel.ReplyDelete
Wait, no, sorry.
Tangent - on NXT, what was the name of the guy who seemed like a bit of a "Next Kurt Angle" type?
I only remember seeing him once (I think he lost, but looked very impressive) but I can't remember his name.
If it's someone really obvious, I'll hold my hands up to being an idiot. :)

A rugby-loving Welshman born in a terraced home on a crowded housing estate who became a billionaire diamond-hunter in Canada has been given an honorary degree from Swansea University.
Gren Thomas, 72, born in Clase, Swansea, in 1941 when German bombers were streaking through the skies, now lives in West Vancouver, Canada's millionaire's retreat, where he occasionally pops into the Red Lion pub he had built – an exact replica of the Red Lion in Morriston, Swansea, which his great-grandmother used to run.
Despite his success and continued business interests, Mr Thomas still travels back to Swansea at least once a year and attributes his achievements to his life experiences and education in South Wales.
His life reads like a Boys' Own story of adventure, excitement and treasure -hunting.
And the story of his daughter Eira (Welsh for snow), who literally followed in her pioneering father's footsteps across the icy tundra of Canada's North West Territories, is a 'Girl's Own' tale of reaching the top in what was once a man's world.
Dubbed 'the Queen of Diamonds', with her sled dog Thor and defying killer bears and bone-chilling -40°C winds in remote territory made famous by TV's Ice Road Truckers, she helped her father discover the lucrative Diavik diamond mine.
She's now the only woman in the world who can wear diamonds from a mine she discovered.
The father and daughter's heroic dual exploration helped propel Canada above former gem capital South Africa as a diamond producer.
Despite his success, the diamond-hunter, who founded the Aber Diamond Corporation – named after Abertawe, Swansea, has never forgotten his roots, still receiving Welsh newspapers such as the Western Mail sent by family.
After getting the degree at the university's winter degree ceremonies in Swansea's Grand Theatre, he said: "I'm very pleased and surprised to received this award, as most of my work has been outside this country.
"I believe much of my success is attributable to my early life experiences and education in Wales and in the Swansea Valley area in particular.
"I've lived in Canada nearly 50 years but have visited Swansea at least once a year and hope to continue doing so."

A noncontagious infection of the gums and throat caused by either of two types of bacteria or a combination of both: a fusiform bacillus and a spirochete. Also known by its World War I nickname of trench mouth. Symptoms include painful bleeding gums, excessive production of saliva, and foul-smelling breath. In the untreated disease, ulcers form on the gums and sometimes on the palate and throat, and the affected tissues may be covered with a gray membrane. The irritation or removal of this membrane typically causes bleeding.
Both types of bacteria are found in healthy mouths, but are normally dormant. In cases of poor oral hygiene, poor general health, prolonged exhaustion, or nutritional deficiencies the infection suddenly may establish itself. Treatment consists of cleansing the mouth and throat with appropriate antiseptic lotions, rest, and attention to the reestablishment of adequate nutrition and good general health. Antibiotics usually are not required.

GOYARD MINAUDIERE CASECategories:Other Brands
Goyard is the true under-the-radar-brand that can turn anyone from average-bag-lover into a fulltime-handbag-obsess. The label is addictive as the top labels like LV, Chanel and Dior. The Anjou Bag for example is an unforgettable bag – once you touch it, you gotta have it. But now there is another to-die-for handbag, a new one and it's beautiful beyond dreams (not words =). So let's just sit right here, look at this beauty Goyard Minaudiere Case and share our feelings.
The Design
The Minaudiere Case is the tiny little wear, but it's a bag that can capture anyone's mind. Even tough it's made to carry small articles, the design is just too stunning to ignore. So you got to have it in your wardrobe. It will help you sleep better right?
The rectangle shape is what does the magic. The body is entirely crafted with the signature Goyardine Canvas. And yes, you probably have read our story about the Goyardine Canvas right? The receipt is the biggest secret in the fashion world and nobody can copy it. Even the counterfeiters are scratching their heads. So isn't that enough reason to invest?
The Minaudiere Case looks like a classic trunk bag. But did you know that Goyard is one of the oldest Parisian trunk makers, which is where their family business started. Think again – the designer brand has existed even longer than Louis Vuitton.
The bag comes with a unique leather strap for shoulder and cross body carry. But of course, this strap can be removed anytime you want. But the strap is unique because it covers the entire body. It's not something you just attach and carry. Wow huh!
The Interior
The interior is quite easy, but it's the exterior that counts. A minaudiere Case is always small, so the inside space is limited. There is just one main compartment to store your essentials.
The Sizes And Prices
For now, we don't have the exact measurement. But the price depends on the color. The white version is retailing for $36000 HKD while the gold edition is priced at $46000 HKD. The cheapest version is the black on black, which retails for $26000 HKD.
Now for the SGD. The classic colors are priced at $4930 SGD but the special colors are priced around $6000 SGD.
These prices are the exact retail prices, but it also provide you a guidelines in case you want to know the prices of your country. Just convert them into USD, euro or GBP.
The demand for this bag is huge, so for some colors you might need to wait 3 months or more. Now which color do you love?
And if you got more info, please share in the comments.

LOUIS VUITTON NEO TRIANGLE BAGCategories:Other Brands
Bringing back the classic to the modern world, meet the Louis Vuitton Neo Triangle Bag for the Spring Summer 2018 Collection. The Neaso Triangle Bag reminiscent of the original Vernis Bag from the 1999 and the 2000. It features a nice ladylike shape for the glamorous woman and it's small but powerful. So let's dive into the details.
The Design
Crafted in rectangle shape, the Neo Triangle Bag glams up any scene. It shines because of the modernized Monogram Embossed Patent Leather. It's a classic while at the same time – timeless.
Colorful is another thing. During the upcoming seasons, you will need some bright color to match your summer dress (or other outfits). And what are even more stunning are the additional boho-chic tassels that come with it. The tassels neutralized the shiny patent, making it easier to become your next everyday bag. But of course, you can also remove the tassels whenever you want.
The Embossed Patent is made from cowhide leather. This bag also features 2 toron handle for tote carry but also a removable shoulder strap (non-adjustable).
The Interior
This handbag might be small, but don't overestimate its capability. The interior is quite organized with structured pockets. Inside you will find a flat pocket and one main compartment to store all your vital essentials. Also, the bag opens and closes with a double zip closure.
The Prices And Sizes
Measuring 9.2' x 6.5' x 4.5' inches, priced at $1920 USD, $2420 CAD, €1420 EUR, £1320 GBP, $16400 HKD, $2530 AUD, ¥233280 JPY, 15200 CNY via Louis Vuitton boutiques.

10 CREATIVE AND ROMANTIC MARRIAGE PROPOSAL IDEASCategories:Other Brands Photo: Pixabay
Many girls dream about their partner getting down on one knee and asking them to be their wife – some may even plan to pop the question themselves.
It is a huge and very important moment and so requires careful thought and planning. You will be telling the story of the day you said 'yes' to your children and even grandchildren for many years to come.
But, before you do anything, you need to choose the perfect ring – take a look at these beautiful ones from Diamonds Factorythat you can customise to suit your partner's taste. Once you have the ring, you need to decide how you are actually going to ask the all-important question. This can be as understated or elaborate as you wish.
Perhaps you have always known how you would do it, maybe there is somewhere of special significance to you or you might be trying to think of something that is both creative and romantic?
If it is the latter, then read on for some ideas and inspiration…
Is your girlfriend desperate for a dog of her own? Then the day you surprise her with one, make it extra special by attaching the engagement ring to the collar of a sweet little puppy. After she gets over the initial excitement that cute bundle of hers, she will have a second surprise when she spots the diamond. If you are worried about losing the ring or it not being noticed, then have a name tag created but instead of the dog's name have it feature your question. Then, if she is too caught up in the moment to notice, you can suggest she takes a look at the name.
This is the perfect way to surprise your partner and capture the moment. Plan a fun day out around it and when the time feels right suggest that you jump in a photo booth so you have a special memory of the day. (Just make sure you know where the photo booths are beforehand, so you aren't desperately searching for one!) Strike a pose and then as the first photo clicks produce the ring and capture her reaction in the next three. Wait for the film to develop and then see it for yourself – perfect to look back on for years to come.Photo: Pixabay
Do you and your partner love the thrill of an adventurous activity? If so, this is the perfect way to pop the question. Adrenaline junkies could take to the skies for a skydive and present the ring as you are falling through the clouds (ensure you keep a good grip on the ring box!) or even have your question spelt out on the ground for her to spot as you come in to land.
How did you spend your first date? Why not recreate it, so it brings back all those happy memories.
Or if possible, consider asking the question in the spot where you first met.
When McFly's Tom Fletcher proposed to his childhood sweetheart Giovanna he decided to do it where they met – at school. She arrived at the building, which was in the process of being renovated, to find him surrounded by roses and candles.
If your girlfriend wouldn't mind the proposal taking place in a public place with an audience, then this could be the perfect proposal for you. The specific details – such as where and how it happens are up to you – but sometimes the more everyday the situation, the better the surprise. Take a look at The 19.57 from Euston for inspiration.
Take inspiration from this proposal that went viral when Dean proposed to Jennifer in Aruba a year after he started planning it. After being seated on the beach she was given a video to watch which showed her (now) husband asking the questions everyday for a year. He wanted to show that she had been in his thoughts everyday, so after 365 days of asking the question on screen he appeared to ask in person as the sun set over the sea behind them.
Send your significant other off on a scavenger hunt, which leads them to places that mean something to the two of you and ends in the most important spot of all, where she will find you on one knee ready to ask that very important question.Photo: Pixabay
Take your other half for a romantic walk and then either have strangers or family and friends ready to spell it out when you reach the required spot. Give them each a letter, perhaps on a t-shirt, umbrella or piece of paper and have them turn round when you are ready to ask. Just make sure they are in the right order!
Another proposal that went viral was the movie trailer created to be played at a local cinema. Matt sends his girlfriend Ginny off to see the film with her brother but little did she know she would become part of it. You might want to replicate this or take inspiration and do it on a smaller scale during movie night at home.
If you can sing, why not write a song and serenade your love with it? Add in some instruments – either playing them yourself or calling in a favour from a friend who can – then you just have to choose the perfect setting. If you are worried that you will be too nervous, why not pre-record it or hire a singer to do it on your behalf?
Feeling inspired? Make that moment truly special with one of these ideas and have an engagement story you'll enjoy re-telling forever more.

A "Pre-emption" or a uniform labor standards bill is a reaction in the Minnesota Legislature to the passage of sick time ordinances in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The idea is that Minnesota Employers' obligations to employees regarding time-off and other similar obligations should be the same state-wide out of principles of fairness in competition and conformity. Also, the burden to metro-area employers in the current ordinances could well be altered or at least reduced if pre-emption bill passed by which state law pre-empts local ordinances and state-wide views pre-empt metro views of good public policy regarding private employer sick leave obligations.
A pre-emption bill is working its way through the legislature in these final session days, but the report "from the front" is that Governor Dayton will veto any pre-emption bill that makes it to his desk.
Takeaway: Minnesota Employers should prepare for the continued existence of different paid time-off standards throughout the State.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Business Discussion & Reviews' started by bunkerguy, Dec 13, 2012.
how high is it?
anybody know?
It seems that brand new firearms have +/- 5%. How much distributors, wholesalers and others suck up no idea.
I would guess 5-10%.
R&D, Tooling, machinery, insurance and advertising are extremely expensive that's why you rarely see a firearms mfg startup. Not to mention the stigma involved in producing goods that kill. Most are an offshoot or subsidiary of another company. Companies spend millions trying to get government contracts and it is a gamble.
Do it smart and anything is possible but start up costs are considerably higher than you think. You're not just going to buy a CNC and start popping out lowers or whatever it is. Mine were over a year in the making and untold, rather, painful-to-tell, sums of money. If done right though you can do OK.

Abe has a ton of work tomorrow night and I have book club, so we went on our date tonight instead. First we went to his Aunt Andrea's Provo neighborhood to protest a real estate development that threatens to overrun her neighborhood. While we were there, who should we spot but an old Chicago friend–who just happens to be the architect for the developer!
He gave us the other side of the story, and I must say that when I heard his point of view, I no longer felt inclined to chant the "protests" of the crowd. I put quotations on "protests" because, this being Provo, the crowd was listening politely to speeches and then responding with a chorus of "thank-yous" to surrounding neighborhoods and "no-thank-yous" to the developer. Occasionally someone would call out "Hall no! We won't go!" –the doulbe entendre made possible by the developer's plans to build, among other things, a hall.
Then we went to the temple. I was supposed to go to a homeschool group tonight but I was just craving the temple instead. Abe and I have been taking turns going, so it was really nice to finally just go together.

Tembo the Badass Elephant Review
Tembo the Badass Elephant could have been amazing, however it makes you crawl around the levels on your belly, rather than smash through gloriously like the war crazed pachyderm you are. I'm not a game developer, but I feel I've played enough games over the years to know that Tembo commits a pretty big crime to 2D platformers. One that sadly detracts from all the positives the game does have to make this more of a grind than a pleasure to play. Tembo has all the ingredients to be an absolute classic with the excitement of a cartoon Rambo in … Read More »
