A girl awakens in her school with no recollection of how she got there. `2nd Place` and `Audience Favorite` in MS High School competition. Featured in the 10th Annual Tupelo Film Festival.
Title: CAUTION
Pros: It`s weird enough to make it seem original. The acting, editing, and soundtrack were superb.
Cons: It was kind of boring and kind of hard to follow.
Other Thoughts: Speed things up a bit next time. We don`t need to see the girl walk through the school for like 5 minutes straight. Keep the audience interested and invested. But well made overall.
Title: Review/ "Caution"
Pros: Courage to make a film. Keep working on more.
Cons: Sometimes what we see is not what others see. The film is in metaphors and I am assuming this is a high school project. We are not allowed to understand the characters and what they represent.
Other Thoughts: The man in the black suit represents evil? The girl in the white outfit is good? Let the audience feel something not spend so much time guessing what is going on. The Janitor? What are we suppose to feel. keep up the good work.
Title: Pretty good
Pros: I like the effort for the film
Cons: i was a little bit confused on what the story line was. add more speaking to get the point accross

Making an impact with MA Youth and Community Work at Cardiff Met
My name is Daniel, I'm from Aberdare in Wales, and I'm studying the PgD / MA Youth and Community Work. I currently work full-time as a Youth and Community Officer at a charity, Willows Youth Club, and have 2 children.
After graduating with a BA in Egyptology, I had various jobs before deciding that Youth Work was the career for me. Working with young people with Autism in care, special schools, after school clubs and in a sporting capacity made me realise the difference you can make to people's lives. Following redundancy, I studied a Level 3 in Youth Work and I haven't looked back.
I originally didn't set out to complete a Postgraduate Diploma or Masters course. I also wasn't clear on whether I wanted to be more community or youth led in my studies. After discussing with academics, I felt the Postgraduate Diploma in Youth & Community Work (with JNC professional endorsement) was right for me. This two year course explores theories around building relationships, social capital and provides context through applying theory to practice. I am now moving on to my Masters which will focus on issues that affect my service.
The opportunity to work in groups with youth and community workers from England and Wales in different practices has been very beneficial, as it challenges you to think what it is to be a youth worker. Youth work is so broad and can impact people in so many ways. One day I can be supporting a young person through Youth Mayer, the next I can be in a college informing young people about knife crime and drug use. The job is varied and interesting with every day bringing something new and challenging.
I have worked on two different placements during the course. Both placements have been contrasting in the approaches to youth work and has provided me with a lot of professional growth.
My first placement was at Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council Youth Service within student support, delivering a Personal and Social Development program with young people in schools.
My second placement I was able to do in my place of work, the Willows Youth Club. Here I manage a 15 hour a week open access youth service and work across a range of youth work activities with over 250 young people from the local area. These activities have included delivering a youth forum, supporting an arts and music program, running events with the young promoters program, and snowboarding and sailing over 400 nautical miles with the Island Trust.
I'm really proud to say that I have helped support the service to achieve a bronze award in youth work. Many other projects I have supported have also been awarded recognition too, such as winning the 'Hackathon' in London with Microsoft and Youth Cymru. I have also helped to secure additional funding for Grow Wild – Natural Beats Project – one of many funding bids I have been involved in.
Study and support
Learning from academic staff who have similar youth work experiences like Cez James really helps you to relate to, understand, and put into context what youth and community work is all about. Cez has helped me to explore other aspects of youth work, which I have introduced into my workplace. For example, providing a space for young people to have a voice on a national stage and working within an outreach capacity. Through discussion I have now added this to my provision at the Willows Youth Club and we are already seeing the benefits. In 2018-2019, we have increased engagement with young people from 150 to 250 young people, as a result of adapting our service through reflection within my studies.
It's been tough juggling full-time work with study and family time. My partner is also studying at university so it's a busy time for us both! It's not been the easiest but the university staff have been very supportive and compassionate, whilst still providing me and other students with structured delivery. Tutors have been very helpful to take the time with me to discuss topics that I initially struggled with.
The rewards have outweighed the tough times and through studying this course, I have been able to make a difference to young people's lives and the charity I work for, which is priceless.

Nicole Titus, Andrea de Carle earn PDS program-related national award
A pair of College of Education graduates who are instructors in the State College Area School District and deeply involved with the Professional Development School (PDS) program were honored recently with a national award.Nicole Titus and Andrea de Carle received the Claudia A. Balach Teacher Researcher Award, which is based on four criteria: ongoing ownership in the research by both P-12 and university collaborators; investigation of issues that impact student outcomes and/or teacher professional development; an ongoing interest in teachers as researchers; and a sustained program of research and inquiry.
"One of my desires is to see a greater representation of P-12 practitioners as principal investigators in scholarly research,'' Titus said. "Having two teachers recognized by the American Educational Research Association is a tremendous honor. Receiving this award is a reflection of the culture of inquiry that our PDS community values and engages with on a daily basis.''
Titus graduated from Penn State in August with a doctoral degree in curriculum and instruction. She is an instructional coach at Park Forest Elementary School and Park Forest Middle School in the State College Area School District.
She had been a PDS mentor for a number of years and the context of her dissertation was in the Professional Development School. She participates in a coaches' collaboration with the math education course instructors for PDS.
"It was very important to become involved with our PDS program as a mentor,'' Titus said. "There is a great responsibility in educating children in the 21st century that extends beyond the walls of my classroom. Our PDS program is grounded in the beliefs of the four E's: Enhance (the educational experiences of all children); Ensure (high quality inductions of new teachers into our professions); Engage (in furthering our own professional growth as teachers and teacher educators of all children); and Educate (the next generation of teacher educators).''
Titus said being a PDS mentor meant that she could enhance the educational experience of her students while mentoring and co-teaching alongside her intern. "It also meant that there were many opportunities for my own professional growth as I co-taught and collaborated with my intern, her PDA (professional development associate), colleagues and university faculty,'' she said.
Her research revealed how co-teaching was beneficial to both students and co-teachers. "Students appreciated that co-teaching allowed for a greater quantity, quality and efficiency of learning opportunities within the classroom,'' Titus said. "They understood that the types of lessons and the quality of activities could be enhanced through co-teaching. With decreased teacher-student ratios, students knew that more voices could be heard in classroom discussions.
"Engaging in reflective dialogues with each other and with our students provided multiple lenses for looking at the impact on our students' learning as well as our own learning through teaching together,'' Titus said.
de Carle also graduated in August with a master's degree in curriculum and instruction. She returned this semester to her second-grade classroom at Easterly Parkway Elementary School. She, too, has a PDS intern working with her in her classroom.
"I learn so much from the PDS intern. We have valuable conversations about theory and practice. The intern cares as much about my students as I do.'' --Andrea de Carle
Having a PDS intern in my classroom provides me with ongoing professional development,'' said de Carle, who said she was "honored" to earn the teacher/researcher award. "It makes me ask daily what I am doing and what is my purpose. I want to make sure that I am always modeling good practice.
"I learn so much from the PDS intern,'' de Carle said. "We have valuable conversations about theory and practice. The intern cares as much about my students as I do. It is incredible to have another adult in the room – who is in the process of becoming a professional – discuss, celebrate and problem-solve with me.''
de Carle said she learned about the program when her children were in school and both had PDS interns in their classrooms. She spent time as a school-district paraprofessional prior to opting to pursue a teaching degree. She was a PDS intern in 2005-06 and also was a Professional Development Associate for three years.
"The classroom management course, the science methods course and the inquiry conference play a role in who I am as a teacher today,'' she said. "In the classroom management class I learned the value of knowing my students and that when issues arise I need to question what I can change in myself to help my student be more successful.
"In science, I learned to inquire and get the students to ask questions. I love hearing the students' ideas and having an opportunity to build off of that. The inquiry cycle is how I approach every day of teaching. What am I wondering? What sort of data can I collect? What can I try? How did it work? Who can I share this new knowledge with?'' de Carle said.
Her return to the classroom, she said, enabled her to rejoin "a community that enjoys talking about what we are doing, why we are doing it, what is going well and what we can focus in on next.'' She said school faculty "collaborate with our district instructional coaches, across grade levels, with Penn State faculty in research opportunities and teach methods classes in the PDS.''

The Alhambra Palace should be built successively by people of many religious beliefs. Therefore, its architectural style is not only an independent and complete individual manifestation, but also a strategic layout of mixed articles, which integrates elements of different religious beliefs and cultural orientations such as Islam, Jewry and Christianity. And the most precious thing is that the Alambra Palace not only has details for further study, but also a grand whole. So it's not too bad to put it among Spain's 25 top tourist attractions and make it the first choice. This miracle belongs not only to the Moors, but also to all mankind. No wonder the Palace of Alanbra tops the list of 25 top travel experiences in the famous "Lonely Planet" guidebook. Washington Irving, an American, wrote "The Tale of the Alanbra Palace" in 1832 based on his personal visit to the Alanbra Palace, which includes both travel notes and legendary stories. It not only introduces all aspects of the Alambra Palace, but also describes the Moors and their influence on Spanish people with beautiful style, telling the myths and legends of the Moors. This has a direct impact on the long-term explosion of the Alambra Palace shed. It is not only a masterpiece of 800 years of Moorish rule in Granada, but also a model of the most perfect Muslim architectural art in the world. Looking from the Albertimore settlement to the south-to-east, the Red Castle Tower of the Alambra Palace stands tall against the snow peaks of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. When we look at the Alambra Palace as a fortress, castle and garden yard, and then go back to its original state and appreciate it as the main body of the palace, we will deeply feel that a "wonderful" sentence is far from enough to express the praise of this delicate palace. In the long run, it is built according to the mountains, rocks and houses, showing the trend of flying overhead; in the near future, its palaces and pavilions are advancing step by step, starting, carrying forward and connecting, with very good rules and regulations. Enter the palace to observe carefully, modelling structure, mutual reference, dynamic and static harmony, row after row. The main hall is luxurious, consisting mainly of three courtyards with Islamic cultural characteristics. Its core parts are used for judicial and public affairs. The other two parts are the royal throne and private residence. Accompanying them are the environment and facilities of the Embassy hall, imperial garden, dressing room and bathroom. The beauty of the four main atriums (inner courtyards) of the Alambra Palace is even more fascinating. They are the Myrtle Court, the Lion Court, the Dalahatin and the Rehattin. The surrounding buildings surrounding these atriums are precisely symmetrical in layout, each atrium is self-contained and its internal space is relatively free. Among these four atriums, the most famous ones are "Myrtle atrium" and "Lion court", especially "Myrtle atrium", which can be the representative of the Alambra Palace.
The city in the garden, the garden in the city. The glorious city of Spain in the age of two kings, reverence for Allah lingers around the city. Zibamboo from China is only a branch of cultural landscape. The use of symmetry, the luxury of domes, the perfect combination of architecture and horticulture, the combination of dignity and sacredness, the noble palace walks away, imagination and association. Especially in the European countries, this kind of religion's inheritance and transition, and then worry about the Qiren, but then come back without dispute, there is no hope. After each war, human civilization is quietly moving forward, touching the marble wall of ice crystal, as if listening to ancient legends. See the chapters in detail, and take photos of some angles that have never been photographed before to tell some old things that have never been seen before.
It was one of the first places we decided we had to go when we were planning for Spain, and it turned out to be right. Located in the southern Spanish city of Granada, built in the 13th and 14th centuries, the Palace belongs to the Arabic style. The whole palace is divided into three parts: the observation tower and the Summer Palace behind the Nazaries Palace. Probably the function is equivalent to three places for military defense, office and rest and recreation. The magnificent appearance, stalactite decoration, mosaic ceilings and Arabic sculptures highlight the magnificence of the palace. Higher geographic location offers a panoramic view of the city and a view of the snow crest on the Nevada Mountains. Tickets are also inexpensive, about 100 RMB per person, but they need to be booked online in advance.
Granada's Alhambra Palace is the most luxurious and final palace of the Moorish people. It is a combination of military defense and palace. There are castles and barracks. There is no palace feeling there. When you climb to the top of the castle, you can see under your feet the white wall buildings and monasteries of Huangwa in Albertin District, overlooking the snow-covered mountains, there is really a species of high. The impending invincible momentum. When you walk through the outer and inner palaces built by Charles V, the Moorish living areas, the broken walls, the only passage between the castle palace and the Royal backyard to the palace garden, you will be fascinated by the scenery. It is hard to imagine that the trees can have such a shape, the mountains can have such a beautiful garden courtyard, not only visual impact. There is also a wonderful sound of running water ringing in the ear, even up and down stairs can enjoy the sound of gurgling water, carefully look at the staircase handrails are also made into a sink, it is absolute!
The Palace of Alhambra was built by the ancient Moors of North Africa during their occupation of southern Spain in the 13th century. Its main function was to enjoy the luxurious life of the royal nobles and to provide them with a pleasant place to stay in the summer. The interior of the palace is so delicately decorated that it has become the most beautiful Arabic palace in Spain and even in the world. The simplicity of the exterior of the Alhambra Palace contrasts sharply with the magnificence of the interior, and the essence of the palace is essentially concentrated in the Nasrid Palace. Almost every inch of the palace wall is covered with exquisite wall carvings, complex and not miscellaneous, regardless of the near and far-sighted is extremely beautiful. Every inch of wall carvings here are carved by the most experienced craftsmen in the Muslim kingdom of Nazari, who carefully appreciate the lines on these walls and can feel the intentions of each knife at that time. Art, as long as the creator works with all his heart and soul, the viewer will surely be able to feel ~photographs should not be too few, just to play the role of throwing bricks and attracting jade
Alhambra Palace in Granada. Granada, the city of pomegranate, is a holy place in the hearts of Islamists and the pride of Spain. The Alhambra Palace is a world cultural heritage. It enters the three palaces. It is filled with beautiful scrolls, roofs, walls, floors and arches, showing geometric figures of various Islamic styles. It is very aesthetic. In the summer palace beside it, there are many kinds of flowers and herbs, and the well-trimmed cypress trees are like mazes, which have great visual impact. Walking along the corridor path in the Palace seems to have traversed 700 years of history. Sometimes shocked, sometimes confused, sometimes sighed, sometimes thought. History is always moving forward, although sometimes it turns a little. This is the inspiration of visiting the Palace.
The Palace of Alhambra is the Palace of Spain. It is said that if you have never been to the Palace of Alhambra, you have never been to Spain. So I bought the most expensive ticket of the trip, 60 euros, almost four times more expensive than the original price. The Palace of Alhambra, built in the 13th century, is the peak work of Arab architectural art and the last treasure left by the Moors to the world. The more you enter the Renas Palace, the more amazing it becomes. The pool surface of the Myrtle Courtyard is like a mirror. The magnificent and delicate palace corridors are reflected in the water. They are like fairy tale palaces in the dream of one thousand and one nights. The geometric symmetry and balance aesthetics of the corridors on the north and south sides and the palaces around them are amazing. When you walk to the two sisters'hall, you will be amazed by the magnificent and dazzling dome with honeycomb structure and more than 5,000 niches, completely forgetting that you have cervical spondylosis.
In 2006, the Palace of Alhambra (abbreviated as the Palace of Alhambra) was eventually defeated in the new seven wonders of the world, but it was the only candidate in Spain. Only the Great Wall of China was selected and finally won the first place. Therefore, not to the Great Wall is not a good man, not to the Palace is also regrettable. A Gong is a masterpiece of Muslim style left by the Moors, an invader from North Africa. It is rare in Europe. After more than 700 years of wind and rain, the Palace has been well preserved, and its superb artistic aesthetics can be appreciated by today's people. In order to better appreciate the Palace, there are several points need to be understood: 1. The most beautiful scenery is the Myrtle atrium, the pool surface is like a mirror, the corridor is reflected in the water, geometrically symmetrical balance aesthetics, which is amazing. It is said that this scene is one of the most beautiful scenery created by human beings. It can be photographed from both sides (pictures 1 and 2, unfortunately I did not take a reflection); 2. The 12 marble lions in the lion atrium. Zi's fountain is the priceless treasure of A Gong. Imagine if they are in Yuanmingyuan, can they still stay? Stone carving technology seems to lag behind the ancient times of our country, but it is not easy to spray water from lion's mouth (picture 3). 3. The architectural style of lion's atrium is the source of inspiration for later architects (picture 4). 4. The decorative art of A Gong is beautiful and needs careful observation. The decorative details of the roof, walls, doors and windows (pictures 5, 6); the garden is also beautiful (pictures 7); the lighting of the Arab bathroom is refreshing (pictures 8); the Summer Palace is the place where King Moore spends his summer vacation, which also reflects the symmetrical aesthetics (pictures 9); the panoramic view of the Palace under the sunset can be seen from the Nicholas Watchtower in Albertin.
There are a lot of people in the main palace. The main palace is restricted by current. You should arrange at least half a day for a visit. You usually need to have lunch in it. You can bring your own dry food. There are kiosks selling hamburgers and you can eat, but it's not very delicious. Because it is a Moorish palace, the whole architecture and decorative patterns show strong Arab characteristics. There are many plant corridors twined by roses in the garden. The trimmed paths are crisscrossed, beautiful and mysterious. In The Game of Rights, Dorn's Palace is located in the Seville Palace, which is very similar to here.
It is said that today is a World Heritage Day, so the Alhambra Palace is free of tickets, received a ticket to enter the main palace at 2.30, visited other palaces in the morning, and arrived at 2.30 on time to control the flow of people in the palace. Albra Palace is a complex of ancient mosques, palaces and castles built during the Moorish Dynasty in Granada, southern Spain. The palace was built by the former Moorish King of Granada, and now it is a Muslim architecture and cultural museum. In 1232, the existing scale was gradually formed on the basis of the old city reconstruction. There are 30 meters high stone walls outside the palace wall. The tour takes half a day and can be enjoyed slowly.

How Does Color Therapy Work?
Although we would live, we would probably not be healthy if we lived in total darkness without any light. Light can affect our mood. Most of us feel better and more cheerful on a sunny day than on a gloomy, sunless day. Some people living in areas which do not get many sunny days in the winter develop Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Studies have indicated that working the grave yard shift is detrimental to your health. We need light to be healthy.
Even though we don't see it, the light around us contains the full spectrum of colors. Each color has its own frequency and vibration. It is thought by some that our tissues and organs need the same energies as light. When disease or injury disturbs the vibration and energy of an organ or area of our body, applying the associated color frequency can restore the body to health.
Color therapy has been around for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Chinese studied and used color to treat ailments. Papyrus sheets have been found dating back to 1550 BC which have a list of color "cures." The "," the Chinese book of internal medicine, dating back 2000 years, records color diagnosis.
In 1932, two psychologists from California scientifically showed that, in humans, blue light has a calming effect and red light has a stimulating effect.
In 1933, Dinshah Ghadiali, a scientist from India, published "The Spectro Chrometry Encyclopedia." This book laid the foundation for most modern color therapy.
About the same time in the United States, Dr. Harry Spitler developed a form of color therapy called "Syntonics." Dr. Spitler found that he could generate profound physiological and psychological changes in patients by changing the light which entered their eyes.
Even conventional medical practice uses light to treat certain diseases. Phototherapy is used to direct ultraviolet light to the affected area in the treatment of psoriasis and acne. Blue light is used to treat hyperbiliruminemia, a liver condition in premature babies. Light is used to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
The Relationship Between Light and Melatonin
Sleep experts have known about the relationship between melatonin and light exposure for a long time. In fact, both melatonin and light are said to control the synchronization of the biological clock.
It is believed that the color entering the eyes is directed to the hypothalamus gland, from there to the pineal gland and then to the pituitary gland, which regulates and governs hormone production. As the brain processes this information, it is believed that it causes cellular and hormonal changes. The key is that the frequency of the color may be transmitted to the area of the body which recognizes it. The frequency, or vibration, of the color is constant. The vibration can "tune" that area of the body. In other words, that area may now be restored to its proper vibration and be restored to health while the color is being used. If used regularly, the body may learn to function properly on its own, much as it will with physical therapy.
Neurologists have found that children with autism may be helped by the use of color.
There are indications that using a color filter or looking through colored glasses, particularly blue, may help dyslexics to read.

Relaxation Was Observed While Staring at Baker-Miller Pink
In 1978, while studying at City University in Seattle, Washington, Dr. Schauss, along with Dr. John N. Ott, experimented with a certain color of pink, later to be called Baker-Miller. They "observed relaxation of the subjects when they stared at a 18 by 24 inch card-board plate" of this color of pink. They found that no other color consistently resulted in the same relaxation.
Dr. Schauss then did some experiments on himself. He observed that his blood pressure, pulse, and heart rate were unaffected by exposure to this shade of pink. However, "after intentionally increasing cardiovascular activity through a series of intense physical exercises, [he] found that this color had a marked effect on lowering [his] heart rate, pulse and respiration as compared to other colors."
Could Baker-Miller Pink Also Reduce Aggression?
In 1979, Commander Miller and Warden Gene Baker at the U.S. Naval Correctional Center in Seattle painted the walls and ceiling of one admissions cells the color pink that Dr. Schauss would later name after them. After 156 days, they reported to the U.S. Navy's Bureau of Naval Personnel, Law Enforcement and Corrections Division, Washington, D.C. that "Since initiation of this procedure on March 1, 1979, there have been no incidents of erratic or hostile behavior during the initial phase of confinement." RED has the longest length in the visible spectrum and the lowest rate of vibration. Possible benefits: Chronic pain - May lower the frequency of wave lengths causing them to be less excited and thereby reduce pain. Migraines Stimulate the automatic nervous and circulatory systems. Stimulate the liver. Act as a pustulant, drawing poisons to a head to be eliminated. Help with female disorders. Reduce inflammation and swelling. Increase heart strength and stimulate circulation. Support the building of the blood. Increase blood flow to the brain.

This is a dark and complex story written in gentle almost lyrical language dealing with (well 'yes') deception but also with loss, greed and redemption. Mostly it has to do with the facility of time to clarify life's events. The novel begins with a quote from Elizabeth Barrett Browning, "But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath." I had to look up this quote because it is not familiar to me. It turns out to have been taken from a poem dealing with child labor or, from a broader stand point, it deals with the loss of childhood … of being a child drawn into the adult world without first given a chance to grow up sheltered from grown up concerns.
At the beginning of the story eighty year old Livvy Higgs is given a present by a little boy living next door who has befirended her. The gift is a framed picture of Livvy but at first she does not recognize her own image which is that of an an old woman, shriveled with age and infirmity. She is confused and then angered by the realization that the rivulets of time have carved their jagged scars into her face and that hers are the features of a woman near the end of a long life. The setting is present day Halifax in the dead of winter and Livvy settles into her house as a winter storm rages outside. She sleeps fitfully and experiences a number of miniature heart attacks that set off a sequence of dream-like memories that replay a half forgotten childhood.
In each chapter there are lovely transitions in time and place shifting from the present to the 1930's and 40's and from Halifax to a little fishing community on the French Shore of Newfoundland called Sable d'Or (Golden Sands). Livvy's earliest memories are of following her mother, Cecile among the dunes of the golden sands as her mother spews out an angry litany of resentment against her husband Durwin who has lead her from a quiet life with her mother in Halifax to this isolated community where she knows no one and does not even speak French, the local language. She seeks consolation in the beauty of the ocean and beaches and the green, leafy wilderness. However her bitterness rules her life as she suspects she has been tricked into a loveless marriage to bring about some sort of financial objective engineered by Durwin and her mother in Halifax. From the start there are mysteries and lies that Cecile cannot figure out and which little Livvy never has a chance to sort out as she is orphaned when her mother suddenly dies. She is effectively orphaned because her father is cold and preoccupied with his business affairs as the principal merchant in the community and simply not involved with her life.
In the meantime returning to the present, Livvy's youth washes over her as she lies ill in her snowbound house finally trying to make sense of her childhood. Between episodes of pain and half consciousness she remembers finding comfort with the family of a neighbour Missus Louis who offers motherly shelter and solace But Missus Louis holds a secret too. She also relives moving to Halifax during the war years to live with her Grandmother Creed who also carries around a heavy burden of secrets and lies and for whom Livvy never feels anything but wary suspicion.
There are no worries for the reader, if you go along for the ride all is revealed. Also, there is a harmonious link to the present day in Livvy's relationship with Gen, her young neighbour next door, a single mother of a severely asthmatic little boy (the same little boy,Rodney who gave Livvy the photo at the beginning of the story). Gen is struggling through her last year at university and is in a great deal of menacing trouble involving illegal drugs. Gen is a kind person who keeps an eye on Livvy, runs her errands and makes sure she has enough groceries in the house. Gen's compassion is the thin thread that keeps Livvy tied to this world reassuring her that amid the troubles and the deceptions there is kindness and love. As you read this book you come to realize that the deception of Livvy Higgs is really self-deception. The young Livvy may have decided long ago that there is evil in this world; that there is the good on one side and the bad other, that there is just the black and the white and no grey, that the sea and the sand never meet on the shingle and that hatred and love are simply opposites. The Livvy she becomes realizes that such simplicity does not exist and that there is change, personal salvation and good things surrounding her both past and present.
Some very nice scenes in this book involve wartime Halifax which is filled to the bursting point with soldiers and sailors getting ready to go overseas and others just back from near death experiences. There is an historic element to the novel that shows the tension between the citizens of Halifax and these over-excited, nervous interlopers who are getting ready to go to war, which I found both credible and interesting. The other remarkable setting for this book is the French Shore of Newfoundland of which so little is written. It is a place that has a connection to the French Islands of St Pierre and Miquelon and the France of the Old World; a mixture of the Basques the Bretons and the Normans . (A good account of the origins of that world is found in, Françoise Enguehard's novel, Les Litanies de l'Île-aux-Chiens. ) The French who inhabited that shore were abandoned by France and left to the mercy of English merchants such as Durwin Higgs, Livvy's father. I think it was very brave of Donna Morrissey to attempt to evoke that place and that time.
In summary, what makes this a good book is the ebb and flow of the narrative that follows the way we naturally deal with memory in so much as it is a river forever changing and forever in motion. So the trick to enjoying the book is to read it with not too much analyzing … go with the flow as the author lets us in on all the secrets by the time the novel comes to its satisfying conclusion. I was a bit taken aback at first by the huge gap of time between Livvy's younger years and this time of reflection taking place when she is her eighties. There are only a few paragraphs devoted to about sixty years of living in between. However that was the 'Happily Ever After' time, which we can all agree is wonderful but boring. (I mean really and truly who would want to follow Elizabeth Bennett to Pemberly where she and Mr. Darcy would, we imagine, unleash their suppressed lust and make babies forever there being no other successful form of contraception at the time aside from abstinence). All we need to know is that Livvy eventually found the love of her life and now as her life comes to a close she is reconciled to that piece that she had never figured out, her turbulent childhood.
This is a good book because the story is told very well.

Administrative License Revocation is often a waiting game. ALR is short for Administrative License Revocation. People get involved in this administrative process after they are arrested for driving while intoxicated (DWI) or driving under the influence of alcohol as a minor (DUI).
ALR adminstrative court is where aggressive lawyers fight to protect a client's drivers license from suspension. These lawyers provide this important service as part of their DWI defense, especially in Bryan-College Station. People must know that strict time limits apply in the ALR process. From the time a client is given notice of the Department's intent to suspend their license, they generally have 15 calendar days to request a hearing. If the hearing is not requested on time, the person's license will be suspended automatically on the 40th day after receiving notice. A bad result, indeed.
Last week was a good one for our Firm in Administrative License Revocation court. Several College Station and Bryan police officers were subpoenaed to testify. Most provided helpful information during their cross-examination. The important benefits of the ALR process are the liberal discovery and information gathering rules. Prior to the ALR hearing, the officer's written reports can be obtained. We use these to help plan our strategy for defending the ALR hearing (and any subsequent Bryan-College Station DWI trial, in fact). During the ALR hearing the officer can be tied-down to their report and questioned about their purported expertise. Questions about the client's driving can narrow the reasonable suspicion cited by the officer as legal authority to stop the client. Further, questions can be used to challenge their probable cause for arresting the client and later used to impeach their testimony at jury trial.
Additionally, the ALR process offers us opportunity to cross-examine and depose the most important witness in a DWI case . . . the arresting police officer. ALR hearings are also important since the arresting officer is rarely prepared and readied to testify by the Department of Public Safety prosecuting lawyer. Consequently, the cop is often caught "flat-footed" and unprepared. Following the hearing a certified transcription of the hearing is obtained and used to question the officer during the later DWI trial by jury.
There are many reasons to conduct an aggressive ALR defense in Bryan-College Station. Most importantly, we want to prepare everything possible to protect our client's drivers license. Second, we want important written information that will help us plan our later DWI-DUI defense. And third, getting the arresting officer tied-down to their report, while being unprepared to testify, can be the difference between a dismissal (or a charge reduction) and a trial.

Online direct lender for installment loans for "Www Direct Loan Transfer Com Phone Number" Have you heard a lot of people using payday loans to get access to cash? If so, you are probably interested in trying it out yourself. But first, you must familiarize yourself with how this type of loan actually works. It's not uncommon to hear of other people getting into debt because of their failure to make timely payments. The last thing you want is to borrow money from an alternate lender in order to pay off emergency expenses but end up with even more expenses because you cannot afford to pay the high-interest rate. Get cash today at Www Direct Loan Transfer Com Phone Number.
Www Direct Loan Transfer Com Phone Number, The most significant downside to using pay day loans is that they come with a high-interest rate, one which is considerably higher than that of an individual loan. However, this is certainly justified because you are essentially a higher risk client. There exists a good reason that you choose a cash advance spanning a personal loan. Banks probably tend not to want to use you because of your a low credit score, forcing you to check out alternate lenders. These lenders take a huge risk by lending money to those who have been rejected by banks.
It's also essential to learn that a cash advance typically lasts for only 2 weeks for up until the next payday. Once you receive your paycheck, you must ensure that your loan is going to be paid. Otherwise, you risk paying hefty penalty fees. This is basically the mistake countless folks have made when working with payday loans. The APR of this kind of loan is extremely high, which is the reason so many individuals belong to debt after making untimely payments.
You must also take care when selecting what company you work with. Be sure to go with a reputable company like DirectLoanTransfer Online Payday Loans. They have been helping clients get emergency cash for quite some time, leading them to be a household name in the business. Also, they are renowned for providing a streamlined application process. Everything can be achieved online, and you could get approved within a few minutes.
All that you should do is fill in the web application thus hitting the submit button. Their team of loan experts will review your information and documents. After getting approved, you should sign your documents online. Once things are all said and done, the funds goes right to your checking account around the following working day.
The company now offers several payment options. You may either pay entirely about the exact due date. This will be deducted directly from your checking account. You can even create a prolonged repayment schedule. This proves useful should you be not able to pay back the total amount borrowed in one go. This provides unmatched flexibility, helping you to better manage your finances.
Direct Loan Transfer Online Payday Loans should be among the top choices of alternative lenders. So long as you tend to be at least 18 years, have been working for a minimum of 30 days, have got a bank account, and also have two personal references, you shouldn't possess any issues getting approved to your payday advance.

If you're ready to grow your real estate portfolio, buying your first investment property is the next natural step. Gaining the most from this – both financially and experientially – requires the right preparation and guidance
Before you embark on your next investment venture, ask yourself these questions:
Are You Financially Prepared?
Getting pre-approved is only the first step to financial preparation. Have 5% of your budgeted purchase price available in a certified cheque or as a deposit on your new property, and consider the additional costs of buying an investment property, such as:
- Lawyer fees (range from $500 to $1,500.00 plus disbursements, as per the lawyer)
- Provincial Land Transfer Tax (approximately 0.5% to 2.0%)
- Toronto City Land Transfer Tax (approximately 0.5% to 2.0%)
- Application fees (ranges from $75 to $235)
- Mortgage insurance (ranges from 0.5% to 3.57% of your mortgage)
Also consider the cost of adjustments, home inspections, moving, and renovations to the property once purchased.
Are You Ready to be a Landlord?
If you are planning on renting out your investment property, you're about to undertake a large amount of responsibility (especially if you are not hiring a property manager). Familiarize yourself with both a tenant's rights and responsibilities in Toronto and the Ontario Residential Tenancies Act.
Where and What Should You Invest In?
The neighbourhood you buy your first investment property in will impact your purchase and resale price, the type of tenant you attract, and your cash flow. Depending on whether you plan to rent or renovate will determine the best place to buy. Learn more about the neighbourhoods we specialize in or ask us about the latest listings in the area(s) you are interested in.
Who Should You Invest With?
When you are looking for your first investment property, there is no better team to work with than one with years of first-hand investment experience. Whether you are looking to buy and rent out a condo, buy and renovate a home, or purchase a commercial property, our specialized team members will guide you the process and help you plan for long-term success.

What is EMDR?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) therapy is a comprehensive approach that focuses on the physiological storage of memory and how it informs experience. It is an integrative treatment approach that consists of eight phases that is compatible with all major orientations to psychotherapy.
EMDR works on the premise of bilateral stimulation (eye movement, tactile taps, and auditory tones). This technique recreates a similar experience to REM (Rapid Eye Movement). REM state is recognised for processing experiences, learning new skills, and reducing emotional disturbances (Shapiro, 2004). By recreating a similar state, the client is able to reprocess the experiences which are causing them distress and gain new insight and understanding.
EMDR was developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro, Ph.D (1987).
Can EMDR help me?
EMDR can help with the following conditions.
- Phobias
- Panic Disorders
- Generalised Anxiety Disorder
- Depression
- Attachment Disorder
- Body Dysmorphic Disorder
- Sexual Dysfunction
- Chronic Pain
- Medically Unexplained Symptoms
Our Mission
We aim to facilitate clients to explore their emotions in a safe and therapeutic environment through a process of interactive treatment.
Our goal is to incorporate needed skills, behaviours and adaptive beliefs about self and other, optimising clients' capacity to respond spontaneously and authentically. To achieve the most effective and efficient treatment while maintaining client stability and safety. We aspire to bring contentment, satisfaction and well-being into the client's life.
Referral Process for EMDR
Referrals will be accepted by the following : Self referrals, GP's, Mental Health and Allied Health Professionals.
It is the aim of this clinic to offer assessments in a timely fashion (preferably in 48 hours post receiving a written referral).

A C-130 transport plane that has been sent to follow Flight 77 (see 9.36 a.m. September 11, 2001) is trailing only a short distance behind the plane as it crashes. This curious C-130, originally bound for Minnesota, is the same C-130 that will be 17 miles from Flight 93 when it later crashes into the Pennsylvania countryside (see 10:08 a.m. September 11, 2001). (Pittsburgh Channel 9/15/2001; Sternberg 9/11/2002) A number of people see this plane fly remarkably close to Flight 77:
Kelly Knowles says that seconds after seeing Flight 77 pass, she sees a "second plane that seemed to be chasing the first [pass] over at a slightly different angle." (Scanlon 9/15/2001)
Keith Wheelhouse says the second plane is a C-130; two other witnesses are not certain. (Scanlon 9/15/2001) Wheelhouse "believes it flew directly above the American Airlines jet, as if to prevent two planes from appearing on radar, while at the same time guiding the jet toward the Pentagon." As Flight 77 descends toward the Pentagon, the second plane veers off west. (Scanlon 9/14/2001)
USA Today reporter Vin Narayanan, who sees the Pentagon explosion, later says, "I hopped out of my car after the jet exploded, nearly oblivious to a second jet hovering in the skies." (Narayanan 9/17/2001)
USA Today Editor Joel Sucherman sees a second plane but gives few details. (Dodge 9/13/2001)
Brian Kennedy, press secretary for a Congressman, and others also see a second plane. (Doyle 9/15/2001)
An unnamed worker at Arlington National Cemetery, which is about a mile from the Pentagon, will recall that "a mysterious second plane was circling the area when the first one attacked the Pentagon." (Gibb 12/20/2001)
An interment foreman at Arlington Cemetery also sees a second plane. He will recall: "There was a second plane behind it.… It appeared to be a cargo plane… mostly white.… I think it was somebody who observed him [Flight 77] and was following him and saw where he was going or what was going on… he was probably behind that far and when he saw [the explosion], he banked it back hard and went back the other way." (History 12/13/2001 )
John O'Keefe is driving in his car when he sees the Pentagon crash. He will recall: "The first thing I did was pull over onto the shoulder, and when I got out of the car I saw another plane flying over my head.… Then the plane—it looked like a C-130 cargo plane—started turning away from the Pentagon, it did a complete turnaround." (New York Law Journal 9/12/2001)
Phillip Thompson, a former Marine, is sitting in traffic when he witnesses the crash of Flight 77 and then sees a cargo plane overhead. He will recall that, following the Flight 77 crash, "a gray C-130 flew overhead, setting off a new round of panic. I tried to reassure people that the plane was not a threat." (Thompson 9/22/2001)
The pilot of the C-130, Lieutenant Colonel Steve O'Brien, will later be interviewed, but his account differs from the on-the-ground eyewitnesses. He will claim that just before the explosion, "With all of the East Coast haze, I had a hard time picking him out," implying he is not nearby. He also says that just after the explosion, "I could see the outline of the Pentagon," again implying he is not nearby. He then asks "the controller whether [I] should set up a low orbit around the building," but he is told "to get out of the area as quickly as possible." He will add, "I took the plane once through the plume of smoke and thought if this was a terrorist attack, it probably wasn't a good idea to be flying through that plume." (Sternberg 9/11/2002)

Maintain Your Furnace
Keeping you warm during the winter isn't the only reason to have your furnace system inspected, cleaned and serviced at this time of year. Having a professional inspect any oil- or gas-fueled appliances before heating season begins also reduces the chances of exposing your family to carbon monoxide: an odorless, colorless gas that can be deadly at high levels. This is especially true if your system isn't new.
In addition to having this annual inspection, it's just good practice to replace your furnace filter at least every three months. This helps keep your furnace running efficiently and dust from circulating through your house, so if you can't remember the last time you changed it, add it to the list of fall-cleaning to-dos.

Why checklists get a big tick from us
Many experts can shy away from making and using checklists as they see them as boring or perhaps even an admission of weakness – but why would you ignore something that helps avoid significant mistakes?
The often irritating observation "It's not rocket science!" has become something of a cliché whenever a task presents itself that is seen as being easy to accomplish. Which makes it all the more ironic that one aspect of rocket science itself is not exactly rocket science – even if it is absolutely vital to the success of the whole enterprise. We are talking about the humble checklist.
Humble or not, the checklist does take centre-stage in one of the books that sits in our ever-growing library, here at The Value Perspective. The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right (2011) by Atul Gawande highlights how checklists can help even experts avoid mistakes across a range of disciplines – from flying a plane to performing medical procedures, building skyscrapers to managing investment portfolios.
Too boring?
According to Gawande, problems can be simple, complicated or complex. The difference between the latter two is that a complicated scenario may involve a lot of steps but steps that are repeatable – for example, counting down to launch a rocket. In contrast, a complex scenario would be something like investment where external factors mean that, even if you do exactly the same things each time, the outcome can be different.
Many people – including, or perhaps especially, experts – will shy away from making and using checklists as they can be seen as boring and perhaps even an admission of weakness or fallibility. And yet Gawande points to numerous examples where checklists have helped prevent potentially fatal mistakes – whether it be in the operating theatre, say, or the cockpit.
In the happily less life-or-death world of investment, checklists can clearly also bring significant benefits. As Gawande notes of one value-focused investor's process: "The checklist doesn't tell him what to do – it is not a formula. But the checklist helps him be as smart as possible every step of the way, ensuring that he's got the critical information he needs when he needs it."
As far as we are aware, Gawande was not referring to anyone we know but, here on The Value Perspective, we need no persuading about the value of a checklist. Yes, they may well be a bit boring, more than a bit time-consuming and a tricky thing to admit to needing – but, as we discussed in Value investing skills #2, they can certainly offer investors an edge.
Furthermore, if value investors strive to be unemotional, logical and rational in their work, where is the sense in being emotional, illogical and irrational when it comes to challenging the status quo and embracing changes that can improve your process? Anything that helps to ensure a set and repeatable investment approach really should not be seen as a chore or a threat.
So it should come as no surprise to learn that we operate our own checklist, here on The Value Perspective – the bare bones of which are encapsulated in our seven 'Red' questions below. These are the questions we ask of every single company we consider as a potential investment, addressing the different aspects of any distressed business that need to checked and double-checked. Really, it's not rocket science …
Our seven 'Red' questions
* Has anything been missed off from the company's enterprise value?
* Have profits – that is, the company's net operating profit after tax – been misrepresented?
* Is the company's past a good guide to its future?
* Do the company's profits turn into cash?
* Is the company's balance sheet good enough?
* Is the business itself good enough?
* Are there other risks to consider?

UNITED STATES (KFXV) — Local reaction to the president's proposal that would radically alter the current immigration system. Fox News spoke to a local leaders about how the new proposal could affect immigrants in the RGV. With efforts to reduce overall immigration by 50 percent, the R.A.I.S.E. Act presented today by the president and two republican senators will use a merit based system when considering to allow immigrants into the country legally. This, according to Trump, would improve the country's economy. The new proposal would enforce stricter requirements when issuing green cards. This will dismantle the current immigration system that allows citizens to petition for family members. It also requires those applying to know English and demonstrate professional skills. It would also reduce the number of refugees allowed into the country. Director of La Union Del Pueblo Entero states this is an injustice towards those who help the economy of the U.S. Economist Davila states that it can be a benefit to the country. Davila says the lack of cheap labor done by immigrants would cause the price of products to rise, stating it will also hurt the economy. Davila also states immigrants help the economy by contributing through taxes, especially here along the border. In order for this to take effect, congress must first approve it.
We will keep you updated with further details as they revealed.

weddings, funerals and one big baby
This illustration popped into my head today and I really want to share it. It's funny that I have not thought of it in such a long time because I purposefully hung it at the bottom of our stairs so that I would see it every day and measure myself by it. I wanted to make sure that, no matter what the day had in store for me, I would try not to face it with this attitude. For a while I did notice it every day and if I was in a good mood I would laugh at this poor guy. Other days, when I was not in such a good mood I would see it, grumble a little, but still, straighten my back and push forward. And then, for a while, as is the potential with all things that we are surrounded by on a regular basis, I didn't see it at all.
At the bottom of the illustration it says, "I am a sulky and ill-humored man, and in this way I knock my head against the wall." And then, as if the lesson were not clear enough: " The angry protagonist will never butt through that brick wall."
The last few months have been chaotic. I have traveled to Chicago, Boston, Morocco and more. I have embedded myself in other people's families and watched them celebrate the newness and wonder of commitment. I have also watched old friends say good-bye to loved ones - parents who lived a full life and spouses who went too soon.
Then, on Friday, I got to see a beautiful, healthy, GIGANTIC baby be born to my cousin and his (heroic) wife. This birth felt like the climax, the punctation (an exclamation point, of course) to this period of time. It was as if all these stories were told again in watching a woman labor and give birth to a new life that started its own, new, story.
And I wonder, did I stop seeing this illustration because I FINALLY learned the lesson?

Can Too Much Exercise Be Harmful?
Since the 1950s, activity and the health benefits associated with working up a sweat have been recommended by physicians and scientists across North America. However, according to a report published by Time, a new study suggests that rigorous fitness enthusiasts "may have a higher-than-average risk of coronary artery calcification… which is a buildup of calcium in the artery walls of the heart."
While this study definitely raises cause for concern, the report concludes that "the vast majority of people… don't need to worry about overdoing it."
The Effects of Too Much Exercise
The study is very clear in explaining that the results only applied to a focus group of people who exceeded the national physical activity guidelines, which recommend 150 minutes of exercise per week.
According to the report, "those who hit the gym for longer than 7.5 hours per week — three times more than guidelines call for — had a 27% higher risk of developing CAC [coronary artery calcification] by middle age. White men in that category were particularly at risk; they had an 86% higher chance of CAC. About 40% of people who exercised the most developed any amount of calcification after 25 years."
These results were corroborated by a previous study published by the U.S. National Library of Medicine entitled "Potential Adverse Cardiovascular Effects from Excessive Endurance Exercise." This study found that "chronic extreme exercise training and competing in endurance events can lead to heart damage and rhythm disorders." Chronic training includes activities such as:
- Ironman distance triathlons
- Long-distance bicycle races
- Marathons
- Ultra-marathons
It is important to note that the study reveals "this concept is still hypothetical and there is some inconsistency in the reported findings." In addition to this, there is also conflicting data that suggests "lifelong vigorous exercisers generally have low mortality rates and excellent functional capacity."
The Reality of Senior Excercise
What does this research actually mean for the average person?
Dr. Deepak Bhatt, executive director of interventional cardiovascular services at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, who was quoted in the Time article, "this [study] doesn't apply to 99% of people… most people are not getting into this range of exercise. The problem in the U.S. is the exact opposite, that most people are getting nowhere near the recommended amount of exercise."
The study also doesn't determine if a heightened risk of coronary artery calcification causes heart issues for extreme athletes the way it does in more sedentary people. Just because it is there, does not necessarily mean it is causing a problem.
At this point in time with the information at hand, there seems to be no reason to change your lifestyle and reduce the amount of weekly exercise you get. In fact, The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention suggest that when it comes to exercise:
"More time equals more health benefits" and that "if you go beyond 300 minutes a week of moderate-intensity activity or 150 minutes a week of vigorous-intensity activity, you'll gain even more health benefits."
The Physical Activity That Seniors Need
Physical activity is a great way to improve heart health, strengthen bones and muscles and reduce cognitive decline and depression. The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention advise that adults 65 years of age and older get regular physical activity in order to prevent health problems and remain capable of performing "day-to-day activities without becoming dependent on others."
The CDC recommends a mix of aerobic activity (or cardio) and muscle strengthening activities.
Cardio is comprised of any kind of moderate or vigorous activity that "gets you breathing harder and your heart beating faster," including:
- Cycling
- Dancing
- Gardening
- Hiking
- Household chores
- Sports
- Swimming
- Walking
Strength training is made up of activities that strengthen your major muscle groups, including:
- Doing exercises that use your body weight for resistance (push ups, sit ups)
- Heavy gardening (digging, shoveling)
- Lifting weights
- Working with resistance bands
- Yoga
Ideally, an average senior should have at least two hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity every week and muscle–strengthening activities on two or more days a week; and if an older adult cannot do the recommended amounts of physical activity due to health conditions, the World Health Organization suggests they should be as physically active as their abilities and conditions allow.
Studies have found that extreme exercise may be a cause for concern and lead to health risks for a certain group of individuals, however, Time reports that "overall exercise is generally good — not bad — for the heart, and people typically need more of it — not less." Like everything in life, moderation is key.
How often do you exercise each week? Were you surprised to see that too much exercise could potentially be harmful? We'd like to hear your thoughts in the comments below.

outside of reading the studies themselves, this is the best reporting of it that i've read. truth be known there is very little published research on what is safe-unsafe for senior exercisers. my own experience at age 72 is that it's easier these days to strain your heart with excessive effort and excessive weight. I've yet to figure it completely, but maybe Goethe said it best–all that I did was storm through my life, at first powerful and great, but now at pace more prudent and sedate.

Yes, keeping active lifestyle is very important for seniors as well as for people with disabilities

Interesting article on exercise. I don't know about the calcification stuff, but I can say from experience that stress damage on joints and tendons in the long term can be a problem.

From a largely agricultural country with a predominantly rural population, by the 1980s Bulgaria had transformed into an industrial economy with scientific and technological research at the top of its budgetary expenditure priorities.
The loss of Comecon markets in 1990 and the subsequent "shock therapy" of the planned system caused a steep decline in industrial and agricultural production, ultimately followed by an economic collapse in 1997. The economy largely recovered during a period of rapid growth several years later, but individual mean income remains one of the lowest in the EU at 768 leva (€393) per month.
The strongest sectors of the economy are heavy industry, power engineering, and agriculture, all of which rely on local natural resources.
Economic activities are fostered by the lowest personal and corporate income tax rates in the EU, and one of the lowest public debt of all member states.
Extraction of metals and minerals, production of chemicals, machinery and vehicle components, petroleum refining and steel production are among the major industrial activities.
In recent years, Bulgaria has emerged as a travelling destination with its inexpensive resorts and beaches outside the reach of the tourist industry. Lonely Planet ranked it among its top 10 destinations for 2011.
Bulgaria is an active member of CERN and has contributed to its activities with nearly 200 scientists since its accession in 1999.
The ICT sector generates 10 per cent of GDP and employs the third-largest contingent of ICT specialists in the world. The National Center for Supercomputing Applications (Bulgaria) is a research institution located in Sofia. It was established in 2008 with the aim of promoting and regulating high-performance processing operations of scientific information. The NCSA works in affiliation with scientists and researchers from the Sofia University, the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, the Technical and Medical universities in Sofia. The center operates the only supercomputer in the Balkan region.
Higher Education in Bulgaria is highly appreciated on international level. Thousands of Bulgarian medical Doctors are working in Uk, Canada, France, Germany and all over world.
The University of Sofia has been listed by the Center of World University Ranking 2014.
Capital: Sofia
International Human Development Indicator (UNDP) Ranking: 58
