Do your time capsules ever go on sale? | No, they do not go on sale. These are special order items and we cannot keep them in stock. Thank you for your interest. May I suggest you consider the capped stainless steel boxes for projects of 75 years or less? | futurepkg.com | 36 | 3a01755494855c96b1973f32c27c63c9 | Not in the sense that it closes with a lock and key. This box closes simply. To make it airtight and sealed, you use the sealant kit that comes with it. After this sealant cures (it's silicone) then it's not that easy to remove it. If you follow the instructions that come with it, then whomever you intend to open it up again can simply dig away the sealant area and tap the cap off.
The time capsule is airtight and won't leak. It's not a safe. If you choose to use a safe and intend to bury it, make sure that it seals properly. Lock mechanisms may work for anti theft, but not against the elements. Water will seep inside over time. Even water-resistant safes are not intended to protect against water for more than a temporary time. I hope this answer has been helpful to you. | [] | 0 |

All of our time capsules (except those in the Baby Time Capsule category) are water tight and come with complete instructions as well as a sealing kit. They can be buried.
When you say 'weather' however, they are not intended to be placed outside above ground with no protection. If you place any time capsule above ground, say, in an enclosure - be sure to insulate the area around it properly. Otherwise, you will subject the items inside to severe conditions.

If you don't have a professional machine, you can still use a common household iron (or a hair straightener iron!). This won't remove the air, of course. You will want to express as much air out before you start. You could use a drinking straw or data vac before finishing the seal. We also include a seal release paper & a sample bag for you to practice on. But how to extract the air (if you want to do that) is up to you. | [] | 0 |

is credit training legal? | yes, credit training is legal and our credit education and document processing services will help you to use the law in your favor. that law is called the fair credit reporting act. the fcra gives you the right to dispute any item on your credit report. if that item cannot be verified within a reasonable time (usually 30 days) it must be removed. studies have shown that 79% of all credit reports contain errors. this is nearly 8 out of 10 reports. therefore most credit reports improve immediately. for disputed items that are not errors, a creditor or furnisher is often unable to find the records or signed documents within the allotted time and the item gets removed. sometimes the furnisher will say it has been verified but not offer proof. it is our job to prepare documents that challenge this and we are very skilled at that. | projectrestorationllc.com | 0 | 7ba050a372ac0d1abb8034612028cc65 | we will guide you through the process from start to finish and prepare all your documents for you. we have a superb knowledge of credit scoring and experience working with creditors and credit bureaus. it may be difficult for an individual to communicate with creditors and bureaus without an adapt understanding of their techniques and regulations in place for credit reporting. we have spent a great deal of time learning the laws that will help you to remove negative information from your credit report, which enables us to offer you a flawless, money back guarantee system. | [] | 0 |

how do school leaders transition to district leadership positions? | making the transition from a school setting into a district setting is something many educators want to do to advance their careers. a quality school district leader certificate program can help educators obtain the skills needed for positions in regional and district leadership as well as prepare them for the district certification.
the bank street school district leaderprogram is designed to empower those pursuing educational leadership with the tools they need for “collaborative, compassionate, and humanistic change” at the district or regional level.
and because the leadership program from bank street graduate school is offered online, it provides the needed flexibility for educators to attend school while holding a full-time job. online degrees and certificates have made it more convenient to make the transition into educational leadership roles.
why become a school district leader?
the need for well-qualified leaders in the field of education continues to grow. the new york city metropolitan area, for example, is one of the top employers of school administrators in the country, according to the u.s. bureau of labor statistics, with 21,790 administrators in the area.
educators impact learning no matter where they work—whether in the smallest elementary school classroom or in a packed college auditorium—the kind of difference district and regional leaders can make is a matter of scale. for some, the move into leadership is often driven by a desire to make a greater impact or address an important issue like access and equity.
in a panel discussion on educational leadership hosted by bank street college, evan jenkins, achievement director of high school math at kipp new jersey, said that he moved into a leadership role because he wanted to “test what more i could do and who else i could reach and collaborate with.”
for jenkins, becoming a leader has placed him in “the productive struggle toward making sure that all children have access to really joyful schools where teachers feel supported and where families are involved.”
how a certificate prepares you for leadership
with bank street’s school district leader certificate program, leaders obtain the skills they need to successfully make the transition. they are taught how to strengthen their decision-making skills, develop and initiate district-level policies, handle the challenge of collaborating with other adults, and manage practical issues like budgets and goal-setting at the district level.
at bank street, they also learn the skills needed to supervise and support school and district administrators with a progressive approach to education, including active learning structures and the social-emotional and culturally responsive methods that can transform the way teachers teach and students learn. | bankstreet.edu | 0 | ae5153d2c2957ee38c8f97c00b1d3f51 | quality education in elementary school can set a young student’s feet on the path for success. that’s why aspiring teachers who want to be prepared to teach a range of students seek the highest level of expertise by entering a childhood special education master’s program.

social studies for inclusive and special education settings: students analyze and develop integrated curricula in social studies using a sociopolitical lens, exploring the ways children come to learn and care about themselves and others through the social studies.
supervised field work
bank street offers smaller class sizes to support better teacher-student interaction. and while the school focuses on the latest teaching strategies and contemporary research into education, we also teach students how to apply these strategies in the classroom.
during supervised fieldwork, students participate in a weekly conference group with their advisor and five to seven graduate students where they can reflect on their experiences and the discussion explores the details of teaching and learning. students meet one-on-one twice per month with their advisor and attend three-way meetings with their advisor and a cooperating teacher. students also learn from experiences in the classroom working as a student teacher, a full-time assistant or as a head teacher.

the bank street school district leaderprogram is designed to empower those pursuing educational leadership with the tools they need for “collaborative, compassionate, and humanistic change” at the district or regional level.
and because the leadership program from bank street graduate school is offered online, it provides the needed flexibility for educators to attend school while holding a full-time job. online degrees and certificates have made it more convenient to make the transition into educational leadership roles.
why become a school district leader?
the need for well-qualified leaders in the field of education continues to grow. the new york city metropolitan area, for example, is one of the top employers of school administrators in the country, according to the u.s. bureau of labor statistics, with 21,790 administrators in the area.
educators impact learning no matter where they work—whether in the smallest elementary school classroom or in a packed college auditorium—the kind of difference district and regional leaders can make is a matter of scale. for some, the move into leadership is often driven by a desire to make a greater impact or address an important issue like access and equity.
in a panel discussion on educational leadership hosted by bank street college, evan jenkins, achievement director of high school math at kipp new jersey, said that he moved into a leadership role because he wanted to “test what more i could do and who else i could reach and collaborate with.”
for jenkins, becoming a leader has placed him in “the productive struggle toward making sure that all children have access to really joyful schools where teachers feel supported and where families are involved.”
how a certificate prepares you for leadership
with bank street’s school district leader certificate program, leaders obtain the skills they need to successfully make the transition. they are taught how to strengthen their decision-making skills, develop and initiate district-level policies, handle the challenge of collaborating with other adults, and manage practical issues like budgets and goal-setting at the district level.
at bank street, they also learn the skills needed to supervise and support school and district administrators with a progressive approach to education, including active learning structures and the social-emotional and culturally responsive methods that can transform the way teachers teach and students learn. | [] | 0 |

However, there are big differences in their origins and astrological theory.
With the Chinese zodiac, the 12 signs are derived from the ancients' musings about archetypal animals, people's personalities and fortunes, and their relationships with one another and years of birth. A myth about a celestial race was later developed to explain the Chinese zodiac sequence.
This differs from Western astrology, where the 12 zodiac signs are based on constellations' positions relative to the earth. The constellations were named according to Greek mythology and astrological theory was developed based on the stars supposed influence on human personalities and lives.
In addition, the Chinese zodiac is calculated on a year-by-year base while the Western zodiac corresponds with “months”.
