 in your same situation.... what I did was and always do is never ever turn down a job or task it done by other people so its just a matter of learning to do it. Well we get to the solution now. First and I say first, get your hands on an old but not too old mac (check ebay) I dont really suggest doing on the job training for this remember your employer's eyes are on you. Do it at home, try as best and as cheap as possible to set the same type of environment at home. This is what I did with a big company here where I live, they had macs and pcs their company does advertising, commercials and movies, tv station and several radio stations. So man I wasnt about to let those dollars go rolling off to someone else. Their network with the macs had gigabit nic cards but was using a 10/100 mbps switch, server 2003 25 macs 14 pcs with 10/100 nics. At first touch down I examined the tcp/ip settings of the macs because the employees complained that it took over 5 hours to transfer a 1GB file to either a mac from a mac from a mac to a pc and so on within a day i had that cut down to 8 minutes to transfer the same file I got all their work.
To sum up macs are basic no biggy. I still dont know their insides like a pc but I manage to keep them online and functioning. Think of it this way "Dont think of the mac as a MAC, think of it as you only know touse windows XP but you are now faced with configuring windows 95. Different user interface, same functions. Learn the mac use your same pc skills and knowledge to troubleshoot the mac these days same ram same ide hdd cdrom and so. Just to further suggest, one of the head designers in the same company was a die hard mac user they were looking into getting a new system for editing the boss approached me and asked what i recommended, hey i recommended a pc with built specs for the task. He approved my recommendation, i built the system and now that is the only system the same head designer uses. I did some exercises with the guy to prove to him that pcs rule (now) with the given and availability of various technologies. He put something a graphic file to render on the mac and then the same file to render on the pc i built given that the mac is older than the pc I told him to start the render on the pc 10 minutes after the one on the mac. Well to no avail bill gates and intel came out on top finishing not only before by 23.5 minutes (we used a stop watch) but at the same time he was downloading stuff from winmx and burning a dvd file 4.1GB on the pc. Goes to show that now a days that the myth of a mac being superior to pcs for design purposes are gone and when people realise that well so long mac baby. Imagine the same company needed a nic for a mac and it cost then 300 of my dollars when a nic for a pc (here in the caribbean) can start at around 50 of my dollars. So pal if you think that your company is going tha macintosh way have a meeting with the high uppers and see why they think that way and see if you can convince them to go the pc way. You may not be able to get a ps solution with dell, gateway or one of those guys but you sure can get the solution of one that you build. I used an ASUS motherboard with Intel Chipset P4 CPU with HT Rambus Serial HDD 256DDR AGP Card. So good luck on your trials if they do decide to go the mac way but dont be afraid you will get through it.

If you put a PowerPC next to a Dell/Gateway (whatever), the PowerPC will **** away the Intel Chip set, and I have yet to see a Windows Monitor that comes close to Apple. The MAC OS is two years ahead of Windows XP. I have a Gateway machine at work and an IMAC at home, and the Gateway is like Ma Kettle to Michelle Pheiffer.

I use an IMAC at home and Windows XP at work and the OS X is far superior. I haven't read the other posts, but if you purchase "The missing manual for OS X" by Pougue, you will be well served. This is a great reference to OS X - Panther, and all of the free software that comes with it. The Apple browser (Safari) is excellent and seems to be able to function with just about any URL. I don't have IWork, but I'm sure you're Marketing Department will want that for snazzy presentations that will **** Powerpoint away. MS Office works great in the MAC environment and your site license will support both venues. Actually I like the MAC version of MS Office better. As for Graphics Apple is unparalled and the screen presentation is the best in the business. I have the 20" monitor and love it. Rumor has it that the next OS upgrade (Tiger) will be available next month. I don't know anything about the integration issues posed by having a mixed shop, but you won't have the spyware and virus problems you have in the Windows world (at least not yet).Official Website of Children's Book Author

My Story
Paula Johnson Neal is a graduate of The Ohio State University with a degree in early childhood development. She has spent over 26 years making an impact in children’s lives as a preschool director, teacher, and guest speaker. Her attitude to positively impact lives is evident by her achievements in leading schools that are recognized nationally and locally for high program standards. Paula resides in Columbus, Ohio and enjoys spending time with family, friends, zip lining, skydiving, reading, writing, and traveling.
“I’M GONNA HAVE A GOOD DAY” is Paula’s first award-winning children’s book. She is passionate about sharing life stories from the eye level of young children. Paula enjoys observing and listening for what they say, how they say it, and why they say it.
Moreover, she believes the majority of children’s literature on bookshelves is too traditionally saturated, lacks diversity, and relevancy to what’s actually happening today in the lives of young children. When thinking of a story concept, she looks for a need and fills it. “I’M GONNA HAVE A GOOD DAY" was born from the non-existence of children’s books specifically about preschool bullies.
"I’M GONNA HAVE A GOOD DAY” is a multicultural picture book that provides a window into a classroom involving a bully named Gabby. Gabby wants to have her kind of day at the expense of her classmates. Fed up with Gabby’s words,
“I’M GONNA HAVE A GOOD DAY,” not matching up with her actions, Gabby’s classmates take a stance.
THE JOURNEY
"I'M GONNA HAVE A GOOD DAY" was a great journey from concept to print. The story screenings were by far THE BEST!! It was an invaluable experience to screen a geographically diverse population by age and gender.
Children, as young as 4 years of age are experiencing some form of bullying type behavior in preschool, grade school and on the playground. Many may argue that young children are simply learning how to socially and emotionally interact with their peers. Sadly, behaviors that are precursors to bullying and actual bullying do exist in many early childhood settings. When consciously or unconsciously left unaddressed rather used as teachable moments, children displaying precursor behavior and children on the receiving end may enter kindergarten socially-emotionally ill-prepared.
You already have a lot of angels for the time you spent. At this level it is hard to give advice without knowing exactly the equipment you have on each angel but if i were you i would :

\- first priority is athena UR5, to unlock level 400. Focus all the ressources on her to strengthen her as high as you can.

\- As you already have one (or two) damage dealers, you should then try to get more supports angel, and focus your resources on them (after your main damage dealer). Eventually level up icarus if you find athena alone is not enough. But Athena need to survive for her to do damages. As you already have Hera, Cupid, Sim and Azura would be good targets for your next angels. You do not need to UR 5 each of the support,  just 1/ur1 each one could be sufficient at the moment, and then max them later. Athena is immune to stun only if she can play T1, so you may want to play a Cupid-first lineup.  


\- For your lineup, most of the time you will want support like hera to play before athena and icarus, to boost their T1 and remove eventual debuff. Then try to snipe their threat with your  Athena. Fill the rest with good utility angels (supports/stunner/debuffer). 

\- bring in amateratsu for her debuff for tower and pvp. You may want to bring in lucifer for pve when the boss can recieve debuff,
