My GE A1035, which i've got about seven months ago always displays "battery exhausted" even though the battery was fully charged. I also bought new batteries to test if it was the cause but the problem was not solved. My coworker who also owned another camera borrowed the batteries from but to my surprise both batteries worked in his camera. I hope you could address this problem immediately. Thank you.

Canon Squeal I recently bought a Canon A1 35mm film camera off eBay. The outside is in amazing condition but the seller did not use the camera for a very long time so it had not been lubricated. I put a new battery in it and pressed the shutter release button and heard a squeal and the shutter was staying open way too long.

Thanks DD, I can understand what you mean. Appreciate your response.
Exterior, no people, night scene.
I have tried to search for this answer but I have not found any. Do religious structures like temples, mosques or monasteries need PR? I just had my test file all pass QC and am filling in the attributes. In the pull down menu it asks "Does this image contain property that needs a release for commercial use?" Do these types of buildings need a PR?
I'm a newbie with Alamy and getting my first 4 images ready to upload. Been reading through the various topics here and what a wealth of information. I've learned a lot by just reading through. However, I have a question about RM & RF. I have uploaded some pics in another agency that is RF only. I do understand about model and property releases and editorial use. I work in China and my work takes me to very rural areas around China with great people and fantastic landscapes. Most of the people in my photos are from villages far from cities. Most don't even have televisions or access to current media. The likelihood of seeing themselves in any publication are astronomical. I have gotten model release when I am able. But my question about the RM and RF which one would give me a greater chance of making a sale?I know that with Alamy with no model release only RM is available. I just want to know if making every effort to get a model release is worth it. Thanks for your insights.

The Virago Star Owners Club had a very successful rideout on Sunday to the #RNLI Skegness lifeboat station. Together they raised a fantastic £127 from club members and the general public.
Rachel Bridgwood said 'We all had a tour of the lifeboat station which was enjoyed by all. It was an eye opener for some as they didn't realise that the RNLI is purely run on donations only.'
Many thanks to everyone who took part.

Cheap Alternatives of Bed and Breakfasts for Explorers
If you have had enough all inclusive package holidays and would like to explore more than the tourist attractions, or you simply would like to embark on a journey to see more of Britain, you will need to change your approach. Instead of going for a package deal and a hotel, you can see more of the world in less time and at a lower budget. Below you will find a few alternatives of bed and breakfasts and hotels.
Of course, the weather is not always going to treat you right, but you can try your luck camping. Whether you are going on a trip in Europe and visit places you have never been to or simply want to spend a few days adventuring and hiking in the Welsh mountains, you can save a lot of money on accommodation. Not to mention that bed and breakfast and hotel owners are not too happy when you turn up with muddy shoes.
If you need a bit more comfort for your travels, and would like to still pack up and go, you might also hire a caravan, borrow one from a friend, or simply invest in one. You will get electricity, so the kids will not complain about not being able to charge their tablets and mobile phones, and you can still get close to nature in one of the many caravan parks in Britain offering different services and amenities.
Air B and B
Apart from traditional hotels and bed and breakfast services, you can also take advantage of the growing sector of private accommodation. You can get a log cabin in a picturesque village, or even a separate annex of a cottage. No matter if you are looking to visit the Lake District or be a blt closer to big cities, you are likely to find a suitable private rental that suits your expectations and your budget.
Static Caravan Hire
If privacy and comfort are equally important for you, it might be a good idea to hire or buy a caravan for regular holidays, If you fell in love with one particular area, you might want to invest in a property. You can look for caravans for sale in north wales in a central location, connected to the mains and the major road networks.
If the hippy inside you is restless sometimes, you will certainly have to try campervans at least once in a lifetime. They are much more fun to drive than towed caravans, and you can stop and move on whenever you can. You don't even have to get one now; there are several companies offering campervans for hire short and long term, depending on your plans.
If you are an adventure traveller, you might not want to be stuck in a hotel all the time you are away from home. To see more of the world and make sure that you are staying on budget, you will need to think smarter and consider some of these alternatives.

How to Enter and Exit iPhone Recovery Mode?
The iPhone sometimes proves to be a headache when it is unable to perform its obligations whereas as a result one needs to put iPhone in recovery mode for regaining the same smoothness in operations.
Apple iPhone is one of the best Smartphone that is available to the mankind at the present date, added to it, the versatile features of the phone puts it as a distinctive class of phone which is used only by a handful people who have a passion for style blended with utility. But sometimes there may arise a situation where a person needs to put iPhone into recovery mode as the iPhone might be subject to certain abnormal functionality (which rarely takes place). In such a scenario, a person basically has two options available:
- Get the iPhone to a repair shop, or
- Get the iPhone repaired by himself
Under both the circumstances, the result of action will be same, as under both the situations, the need is to put iPhone in recovery mode. The need to put iPhone into recovery mode mainly arises when the iPhone becomes non- responsive, that is, a situation where the iPhone does not performs by way of touch or any other button on the iPhone.
Enter iPhone Recovery Mode:
Once the iPhone becomes non-responsive to the actions of the user, has to put iPhone in recovery mode by following the listed steps:
- The first step that is required for the purpose of getting the iPhone into recovery mode is the need to have the latest version of iTunes which is in the running condition.
- The iPhone then needs to be connected to the computer with the help the USB cable, so that the iTunes can access the iPhone
- There is a need to switch off the iPhone when the recovery process shall continue; therefore, the iPhone needs to be switched off by holding the power button until the screen shows the slide for power off. After such display is obtained on the screen, just act according to the guidance.
- Once the iPhone has been switched off, the user needs to press the home button at the bottom of the iPhone and keep on holding it. At the same time one also needs to reconnect the iPhone from the USB again and after re-connection is done, the iPhone should be powered on.
- While all this process is going on, it shall be remembered that the home button is still held. As a result of which Apple logo will appear on the face of the screen followed by a information which states 'connect to iTunes'. As soon as the image is displayed, the home button shall be released to view the recovery option on the computer screen on the iTunes.
Once such option is obtained, the user needs to click on the 'ok' button and the iPhone will be recovered. However, it should be ensured that the person carrying on the operation has knowledge about the Apple iPhone's use and operations else can cause severe damage to the iPhone which may also be permanent. It is also advised to ensure that the latest version of iTunes is running in order to have faster and smoother operations. So hope it's pretty easy for you now to put iPhone in recovery mode.
Exit iPhone Reecovery Mode:
- Hold down both home and power button for at least 15 seconds, this shuts down the iPhone.
- Press power button to boot the iPhone.

The Citizens Commission on National Security (CCNS) is a national security watchdog organization. It is not a Washington think tank, but rather an activist group working to strengthen America's national security. And we have the right people and experience to do it. The CCNS evolved out of the Citizens Commission on Benghazi (CCB), which was formed by Roger Aronoff in 2013 under the auspices of Accuracy in Media. The CCB issued two major reports and received much publicity for its press conferences at the National Press Club and the Heritage Foundation. You can see the final press conference and read the CCB reports on Benghazi here.
We launched the CCNS in June of 2018 as a tax deductible 501(c)(3) organization, establishing our website, posting articles, and starting to reach out to the public. Here is an article laying out the mission of the CCNS, just as we got started. We have stayed rather low-key until now, posting articles by our members, as well as select guest columns, and doing radio interviews. Our members include three retired generals (two Air Force, one Army), and we are saddened by the loss last December of our most senior member, 4-star Admiral James "Ace" Lyons, who was commander in chief of the Pacific Fleet. Our members also include Allen West, retired Lt. Col. in the Army and former Congressman, as well as two former CIA officers and the three founding members of Special Operations Speak. You can see all of the members here, including their bios. In 2019, we are ramping up our activities, and are determined to have a historic role and impact on furthering America's national security. We plan to grow into a powerful voice in DC and across the country.
On Friday, August 16, at the Army Navy Country Club in Arlington, Va., we are presenting the first annual "Admiral James 'Ace' Lyons Award for Distinguished Service" to Amb. John Bolton, Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs. Amb. Bolton will be giving a foreign policy speech at the event.
Our first major event took place in February, titled "The U.S.-Israeli Alliance and its National Security Implications." It aired live across the country on the Jewish Broadcasting Service, or JBS-TV, for five and a half hours. The event included a Q&A with Alan Dershowitz about the national security implications of the alliance between Israel and the U.S. It also included three panel discussions with top notch experts on various aspects of the U.S.-Israeli alliance, the current threats to Israel, and the latest "peace plan" being discussed and encouraged by the Trump administration. You can watch the entire symposium, or any individual part of it, and learn about the fantastic speakers and experts who took part in it, right here. Or, you can watch a 15-minute summary of the event here.
Our plans for 2019, 2020, and beyond include a series of such one-day events, each dealing with a different facet of America's national security. Each event will be webcast, broadcast or recorded and shown later, archived on our website, and distributed as widely as possible, including through social media. We will also issue reports based on our investigations and our findings, and the views of the speakers as well as our own views.
We have proven in the past to have excellent media contacts and skills in getting media to attend our events and follow up to get our people on the air to talk about the topics and the issues raised. Roger Aronoff, the Executive Director of the CCNS and the Editor of the CCNS website has been a frequent guest on Neil Cavuto's shows on Fox News and Fox Business News. Aronoff also produced a weekly PBS TV series called "Think Tank with Ben Wattenberg," and those same PBS stations aired his most recent of six documentaries, "Fighting Words: A Tale of How Liberals Created Neo-Conservatism." Aronoff produced, directed and co-wrote the award-winning documentary.
Much of the funding that the CCNS raises is used putting on these events, promoting them to the media, Congress and the White House, and broadcasting or webcasting them through the website, and when possible, on C-SPAN or other interested networks. Also, we are launching a weekly, national security-focused show and podcast, hosted by Mr. Aronoff, that will be on several platforms, both audio and video. That will start up in early September.
The CCNS also works to influence and inform policy behind the scenes through our network of contacts at the Pentagon, the White House and in Congress. As with Benghazi, the CCNS will be filing Freedom of Information Act requests when appropriate. One of our members until last year was Pete Hoekstra, who had previously been chairman of the House Intel Committee. He is now Ambassador to the Netherlands.
We plan next to look at border security and illegal immigration as national security matters. That event will be structured as follows:
- Border Security and Immigration: How is it a national security issue? What is the truth about how secure our southern border currently is? Is it a crisis? An emergency? Or nothing much to worry about?
- Is Trump's recent arrangement with Mexico merely a band-aid? Or is it a significant step forward in solving this long-festering problem?
- Would a wall, or fence, across much of America's southern border be a game changer?
- What should be done about sanctuary cities and states?
- Considering the political climate today, is there a grand bargain that could be struck regarding border security and immigration reform?
Other topics that we plan to cover over the next year and a half include:
- The Real RussiaGate
- Were we right to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal?
- How much of a threat does China pose, and to whom?
- Is Global Warming really a major national security threat?
- What is the state of Military Readiness following years of sequestration?
- How the Establishment Media affects National Security
- Is America Prepared Enough for Cyber-warfare?
- A coherent national strategy for counterterrorism
- Is America facing a crisis over election integrity?

CU Boulder Chancellor Phil DiStefano (firstname.lastname@example.com) has invited Breitbart News journalist and "alt-right" public figure Milo Yiannopolous to speak at CU Boulder Jan. 25. DiStefano said, "Personally, I feel strongly that discrimination and harassment have no place on our campus."
It boggles the mind then, how he could invite Yiannopolous to speak at our campus. Yiannopolous has written that the way to "make women happy again" is to "uninvent the pill and the washing machine." He writes articles titled "10 things I hate about Islam" ("but it ended up being the 13 things I hate about Islam, 10 simply couldn't cover it," Yiannopolous clarified) and complains that "liberals" and "feminazis" are suppressing his free speech while raking in thousands of dollars on his university speaking tour. Some more interesting positions (all taken from articles on the Breitbart website) include: that Islam and feminism are "destroying the American way of life," (Are we sure it's not that over 90 percent of the new wealth in this country goes to the top 1 percent?) that "male feminists are virgins, perverts, or both," (an unsubstantiable and obviously sensationalist claim) and that "birth control makes women unattractive and crazy," (false, and also sexist for assuming that women ought to concern themselves with how men think of them).
Yiannopolous is not a journalist according to any respectable definition of that word; he is a racist, sexist, reactionary opportunist who makes a comfortable living off sensationalism. To deny him the privilege of speaking at our university is not to infringe on his (or anyone's) freedom of speech. And deny him the privilege of speaking at our university is exactly what we (not just those affiliated with CU, but all the people of Boulder) ought to do.

New Jersey's New Sick Leave Laws: Happier, Healthier, Better Workers
On May 2, 2018, Governor Phil Murphy and the New Jersey State Senate made New Jersey the tenth state in America to establish paid sick leave legislation, and the truth is that it really seems to have heart. The other states that have done this so far include California, Washington, Washington, DC, and other New England states, but no southern states.
Adults struggling with health concerns or supporting disabled or sick loved ones are supported by this law, and so are parent employees. This law even supports families by allowing workers to take a sick day in order to attend important school meetings and events for their children.
What Can a Sick Day Be Used For Under This New Law?
- Employee health issues or else health problems of a spouse or dependent that is either related by blood or associated in a close family-like relationship
- If the employee or family member has been a victim of domestic violence and needs physical/ mental care, and also if there is time needed to sort out legal matters or relocation
- If there is a public health concern with the place of employment, or a health concern at the school or daycare facility that your child attends.
- If there is a school-related event or meeting that the parent needs to attend for their child.
Effects of This New Sick Leave Law
Some employers are concerned about the cost of the new law, but they might appreciate information from a recent study that specifically addressed this. It was funded by the Department of Labor's Chief Evaluation Office and is presented as part of the Worker Leave Analysis and Simulation Issue. According to the results of this study, things could actually improve for everyone concerned—employers included, and the cost to implement this properly can be quite low.
Benefits of Sick Leave Regulations:
- Reduction of contagious disease growing around the workplace
- Growth in employee productivity
- Less injury in the workplace
- Less turnover
- More worker stability
- More dependable income for employees
- More loyalty to employers as employees will be afforded the ability to take better care of themselves as needed.
- Adequate time to heal from sickness and/or injury
- More and better preventative care
- Healthier families
- Less wasteful use of taxes to cover overuse of the Emergency Department in healthcare
Reasonable Stipulations
- Employers must allow employees to use sick leave for the reasons stated above for up to 40 hours/year
- 30 hrs of work = 1 sick leave hour
- The time saved accrues, and it's good up for up to 120 days.
When Will the New Sick Leave Law Take Place?
The New Jersey Earned Sick Leave law will go into effect on October 29, 2018, and it will preempt all previous laws regarding sick leave.
Employees will begin to accrue leave and they will become eligible to use the accrued leave after 120 days. For employees hired after the effective date of the law, benefits will begin to accrue immediately and they will be eligible to use the leave after 120 days. However, employers may agree to an earlier date.
If you are concerned about this change and need help for any reason, reach out to a qualified lawyer to get a straight answer and take out the guesswork. Go here to find a New Jersey employment lawyer today.

Technical writing is the great love of my life.
I am a local technical writer in Portland, Oregon.
I have a B.A. in Journalism from Gonzaga University and a M.S. in Professional & Technical Writing from Portland State University.
I am passionate about working with professional industries.
Please view some of my work below.
This piece represents the portion of my master's curriculum that focused on coding skills. I had the opportunity here to research and collect data in Emergency Room visit demographics in the United States. As a final project, I compiled the code that builds out a bar chart with the statistics I gathered.
This piece represents independent research I completed while my curriculum shifted gears towards looking at healthcare legislation. For excellent technical writing in heathlcare, I belive it is important to know the legislation healthcare workers must deal with everyday.
This is a collection of newspaper articles I wrote for my undergraduate work in Journalism at Gonzaga University. I enjoyed delving into the complexity of these stories, and earned one spot on the front page.

As always the modern world and modern way of doing business is killing the magic of Christmas replacing it with a festival geared around the commercial race to attract people to buy as many presents from the retailers who fall over themselves to attract the customers.
This has resulted each year over the past decades Christmas for the retailers starts earlier and earlier each year along with their winter sales but now each year the sales simply failing more and more to attract the customers who a simply becoming numb or even excited by Christmas itself.
In the end all the retailers are doing is getting themselves in a vicious circle which has ended up both devaluing Christmas and the Sales they depend on as after all if the customer is always faced by Sale almost constantly through the year. So all the retailers have successfully done is kill off the goose which laid their golden egg as after all Sales used to be those special events for short periods of time scatted throughout the year which attracted customers in to spend money and look for a bargain.
Now why should people even bother with Sales and Christmas itself as after all they can buy bargain any time and even on line so now people simply are not attracted to retail stores especially in Sales and Christmas.
My personal view the retailers should wake up to what they are doing as if they continue down the route of constant sales and starting Christmas earlier and earlier it will eventually make the whole process of sales financially a total waste of time and money for them as they will gain nothing from them including more business.
It is one of those things that retailers should step back and really think about what they are doing and one of those times where they go back to times past when sales and Christmas were more special and were both shorter and more intense time periods.
Sadly no one will listen to likes of myself as all retailers and their executives see is the falling profits from their constant sales and rather than doing what everyone else would do step back and study what is happing, they just put on more sales in faint hope it will cure the problem!

From: The Honorable Mark Sanford
Sent By: email@example.com
Bill: H.R. 3436
Date: 11/19/2013
Dear Colleague:
The Dept. of Defense, CIA, Dept. of Justice, and Dept. of Homeland Security each have independent Inspectors General (IG), and all have to undergo a formal Senate confirmation process before they can take their position. This process does not apply to the NSA. It is the most prominent security agency without an independent IG, and in their case, appointment comes at the agency's Director's discretion.
As noted in a recent Washington Post op-ed by the former IG of the CIA, Britt Snider, this lack of independence creates an environment where employees of the IG's office worry about their careers if their findings and conclusions are critical of the agency. How can one give an independent assessment of a problem if their job may be determined by their assessment? The NSA Inspector General Act of 2013 addresses these problems by requiring the NSA's IG to be appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, mirroring the changes made to oversight of the CIA years ago. Additionally, this legislation also requires the Director to undergo the same formal confirmation process.
Please join me in working to give the NSA's IG office more independence to fulfill their mandate of oversight by becoming a cosponsor of this bipartisan legislation, which was introduced on Wednesday, October 30th. For more information, or to become a co-sponsor, please contact my office and speak with Chris Stevens, at 202-225-3176 or email@example.com. Original Cosponsors: Paul C. Broun, Mick Mulvaney, Alan Grayson, Kerry L. Bentivolio, Tom Rice, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Justin Amash, Thomas Massie, Trey Gowdy, Jeff Duncan, Joe Wilson, and James F. Sensenbrenner.
Mark Sanford
Member of Congress

Things You'll Need
- Large glass container (bowl, large glass, etc.)
- Spool (paint roller, old spool of thread or kite spool)
- Spoon
- Tweezers
- Hexanedioxyl dichloride
- Diaminohexane
Nylon is one the first man-made chemicals, and dates back to World War II. The synthetic has extensive applications, with specific uses in clothing and other protective material. Making nylon is as a simple process you can undertake yourself.
The chemicals we will use in this project are hexanedioxyl dichloride and diaminohexane. The two chemicals need to be in a 2:5 ratio. For every 5ml of hexanedioxyl dichloride, you will need 2ml of diaminohexane. The resulting solution will make about 1/2 to 1 meter of nylon.
Pour the hexanedioxyl dichloride into a large glass container.
Hold a spoon upside down (with the large beveled part up) over the glass container. Slowly pour the diaminohexane over the spoon into the hexanedioxyl dichloride. The spoon prevents the two chemicals from mixing fullt. Let this solution sit for a minute.
You will notice a small layer forming as the two chemicals meet. With your tweezers, pinch a small amount of the substance. Pull it away from the glass container, and it will come out in a thread. This is a thread of nylon.
Pull up the single thread to eye level. Place the tweezed end of the thread of nylon onto a spool. Slowly turn the spool and the nylon will pull out of the solution in a long, thin string. The thread will continue until the chemicals are used up.
You can get both of these chemicals through most chemical suppliers. Other chemicals you can use (which are merely variations of the first) are, respectively, hexamethylenediamine and sebacoyl chloride.
Because you are using corrosive chemicals, you should wear safety glasses and gloves.

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) Alan Williams had 19 points and nine rebounds, and Michael Bryson hit two free throws with nine seconds left to help No. 2 seed UC Santa Barbara beat seventh-seeded Cal Poly 54-50 in the opening round of the Big West Conference tournament Thursday night.
Bryson scored 14 and John Green added 11 for UCSB (19-12), which has won six in a row and will take on third-seeded UC Irvine in the semifinals on Friday.
Cal Poly (13-16), the defending tournament champion, trimmed its deficit to 52-50 with 1:57 left on a jumper by Brian Bennett, but wouldn't score again.
Bryson's free throws made it a four-point game before he corralled a missed a 3-pointer by Cal Poly's Reese Morgan to seal it.
The Gauchos closed the first half with a 10-2 run, taking a 27-22 lead into the break, and never trailed again.
Bennett led the Mustangs with 20 points on 9-of-12 shooting.

Investment firms Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (NYSE: KKR) and Riverstone Holdings LLC are merging oil and gas assets to form Trinity River Energy, a new Fort Worth-based company that will become one of the largest operators in the Barnett Shale.
Trinity River will have Barnett Shale wells capable of producing up to 258 million cubic feet per day of natural gas. The driller will also have oil and natural gas liquid-rich properties throughout Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi.
The company formed from the combination of KKR Natural Resources and Legend Production Holdings, a Riverstone company. Both KKR, which manages investments across various asset classes including private equity, energy, infrastructure, real estate, credit and hedge funds, and Riverstone, an energy and power-focused private investment firm, have offices in Houston.
Although Trinity's operations executive team will be based in Fort Worth, its finance, accounting and information technology executive team will be based in Houston. Chris Hammack will be the company's CEO. He was CEO of Legend.
"We are very pleased to be combining these two portfolios of assets," Hammack said in a statement. "Following the combination, Trinity will have an impressive position in the Barnett Shale and a mix of highly prospective plays. We feel confident that our strong financial backing and experienced teams will allow us to build a highly successful company together."
The merger is expected to be completed this fall.

My difficult, wonderful choice to become a teacher
17 December 2016
I COME from a patrilineal society that elevates men and degrades women.
In traditional Engan folklore, men were the subjects of many stories told at bed time. They owned the land, fought tribal wars, made decisions, married many wives, made Moka rituals and were always in the limelight.
The women's place was at home: feeding the pigs, tending the garden and looking after the children. Women had no place in the public arena. They were never regarded as dispensers of wisdom; hence they were never allowed to talk in public.
The coming of civilisation and modernity hardly changed the traditional Engan mentality of male superiority.
Men continue to hold hegemony over the affairs of Engan society. The 'hausman' is regarded as the custodian of Engan wisdom, and the young men are required to visit the place to receive wisdom from the elders.
Today, Engan women remain in obscurity, are regarded as inferior and are often subject to male domination and exploitation. They are regarded by the men as cheap objects to toy around with and satisfy their lust.
My choice to become a teacher in a male dominated society was very difficult.
My decision went against the cultural presuppositions and the expectations of a woman in Engan society.
I began to imagine the cultural backlash I would experience from the males when I returned to my village after the completion of my studies.
As I was wavering about whether to pursue a career in teaching or do something else, my mother encouraged me to give it a shot. She also prayed for me daily asking God to bless my goal to be a teacher.
I finally made up my mind to study teaching. After the completion of my Year 12 studies in 2012, I was accepted to study for a diploma in primary teaching at the newly established Enga Teachers College in 2014.
My acceptance was my ticket to pursue my dreams. I was excited that I was one of the privileged pwoplw who was offered a place to study. At the beginning of 2013, I went to the beautiful Enga teachers college to enrol as a trainee teacher.
Initially, it was intimidating studying with males on Engan soil. Many of the boys in the class tried to show a macho attitude. They wanted the women to be submissive and listen to them. But most of the girls had steel in their souls to stand up to what they perceived as male arrogance.
Sometimes female teachers and other wiser and experienced male teachers didn't tolerate such bigots and reprimanded them harshly. Slowly the male students began to regard the women in my class as equal.
One of the ways I used to overcome inferior thinking was to study hard and do well in class. I did in-depth research on topics that were to be discussed and presented new insights that held my male colleagues spellbound.
The male students began to respect me as an intelligent woman and an independent thinker. Over time, they would ask my opinion of what they were doing. I began to realise they were no longer taking me lightly but looking at me with respect and admiration.
In the second year of my studies, both the boys and girls in my class bonded as brothers and sisters. We shared food and drink together. We worked together on projects.
During our field tips and our practical outings, we became closer as brothers and sisters. I think knowledge has liberated us from our traditional cultural mentality. Some of my classmates began to develop intimate friendships and life partners were found within the spirit that prevailed in class.
I completed my studies in 2014 and graduated from two year diploma program the same year. On the morning of my graduation, as I put on the graduation gown and marched along the aisle with my classmates, I felt great. It was one of the sweetest moments in my life.
As I surveyed the auditorium, I saw my parents and relatives standing close to the podium holding mobiles phones, ready to capture the moment I would receive my diploma and graduate. I was overcome with emotion. Tears of joy flowed down my cheeks as I wept.
After graduation, I went home with my family members to celebrate my achievement. A huge mumu of chicken, taro and vegetables was prepared by my parents. To top it off, my boyfriend deposited K200 in my account.
I was very happy. I felt I was standing on top of the world. I had broken the cultural barrier and at that special moment I was admired as a special person in the community. My status had been elevated.
I was offered a job as a teacher at Koemali Adventist Primary School in Enga Province at the beginning of 2015. I was tasked to educate and shape the young minds of my village and was given the esteemed role to teach Grade 6.
I have been put on the PNG Teaching Service Commission's payroll. I work with the male teachers of the school as a valuable and respected member of the school and the community.
My immediate goal is teach and gain experience and later complete a BA in primary teaching. My long term dream is to complete a MA in Education Leadership and become a lecturer at a teachers college.
From that vantage position, I can inspire young girls who come under my tutelage to dream big, break the status quo and be equal players in the development of this nation.
Dyhane Kendo, 34, comes from Koemali Village in Enga Province. She is the fourth born in a family of six. She likes sport, visiting new places, reading, writing and listening to inspirational music.

Training - The 4 Stages of Learning.
First stage - unconscious-incompetence stage
Second stage - conscious-incompetence stage
Third stage - conscious-competence stage
Fourth stage - unconscious-competence stage
Need For Training In Relationship Skills.
In our society we do not learn interpersonal & communications skills on how to interact with others & get along when there are differences without giving up of our self & to successfully influence others in order to get what we want. This results in assumptions, judgments, fear, anger, defensiveness, conflict, resentment & blame. With our relationship advice, relationship coach, love relationship training you can break this pattern.
Dependence, Independence & Interdependence: When we make choices that include dependence we are placing our power in the hands of another, "I am not getting what I want & you are responsible!" This is a weak position & often includes blame, resentment or avoidance of responsibility.
When we make choices that are independent we are effectively saying, "Here's what I want & I'm going to get it & I don't care about what you want!" Disregarding the other!
When we make choices based on interdependence we are saying, "Here's what I want - What do you want? How do we both get what we want? When you get what you want - I get what I want." The result is synergy!
Learning Process of the 4 Skills for Relationships.
The real learning of the 4 skills is through experiential learning, not through lecture or reading material.
You will learn first about the 4 skills by the discussion material on the 4 skills, then by experiencing using one of the 4 skills yourself & improving your implementation of the skill. The 4 skills are very powerful & the full power is realized as you learn the skill & become more competent at using the skill you are choosing during that interaction & deepen your ability to use the skill.
In the workplace you will learn how to apply the 4 skills to improve interpersonal communications interactions & how they apply to team building in order to create an environment that embraces & benefits from diversity in the employees, staff, management, leadership & in your clients & customers.
You Will Learn What You Are Ready To Learn, When You Are Ready To Learn It!!!
Are You Ready!!!
