The Dankook University Club Association was in charge of running the festival program. When the DKH asked whether they were aware of the forecast for the time of the outdoor performances they said, the plan was made and planned carefully a few weeks before the event. They realized that it could rain during the planning process and that the mid-term forecast at the time was not accurate for the event date, location, rental date, and promotional announcement date with various companies, so they went ahead with the plan.

|
When asked if there was a plan B, in case it rained, the association answered, they were thinking of the student theater as the next best thing. They remember it rained on the last day of the festival in 1st semester and the groups preparing for the performance changed the venue to the indoor student theater for safety reasons. But most club members complained about the static atmosphere and the absence of classmates due to the layout of the student theater. As a result, they decided to stick to the outdoor plan, unless it rained too much.
|
Lastly, when the DKH asked about what measures are taken to address prevailing weather conditions for upcoming events, the association said, when planning events, Dankookians can plan for weather conditions during the rainy season, but they also have many other things to consider. For the event, you need to prepare several contracts and begin planning a few months before and it is impossible to make double contracts to cover unexpected weather situations. So associations need to change the venue and choose a direction that works regardless of the conditions. Unfortunately, the gym and the student theater are places where it is harder to move around as compared to the outdoors, so changing places is not the best solution either. If you can be certain that it will rain, then you can start planning the event in that place from the ground up, but it is obviously unrealistic to know for certain what the weather will be that many months in advance.

Through the interview, we learned that the organizers faced a lot of troubles when they were planning the event, how they solved problems, how they dealt with the school and how they understand and sympathize with their members. However, we also learned from club members that they feel the organizers were irresponsible for not being prepared for the rainy weather that was predicted. It is surely the role of the association to strive for the satisfaction of students, despite their organizational difficulties. As we stressed earlier, this has happened before, therefore many people were disappointed and students lost faith in the association. In order to better prepare for future events, the association needs to implement a thorough plan b and strive to restore the trust of the student body. Every association can see this as a lesson and be more vigilant and more aggressive in their actions when planning their events.

At the start of the year we began using their very in depth hands-on history project: HISTORY Through the Ages Project Passport World History Study: Ancient Greece (you can read my review here: A Study in Ancient Greece). It was great, but definitely very time consuming. With summer upon us, I was excited to do a fun, interactive but less intensive mini history course.

We received the Make-a-State Activity-Pak as a downloadable resource, but there is a CD version as well. It’s intended for grades three through eight, but with a bit of help from me, my first grader was able to do the activities, too. The Activity-Pak contains instructions and printables for 20 projects that you can put together into one big Lap Book. The activities include key state facts, a state timeline, recipes, state geography and government, and much more.
|
A nice thing about this resource is that you can use it for any state, so while we began with a study of our home state of Texas we can use it again later for other states, too. And of course we can pick and choose what all we want to use, so we can do just a few activities if we want to just touch on a state rather than learning ALL about it. And actually, because I’m using this for first and fourth grade rather than third through eighth, I’m not doing every activity in our Texas study, either.
|
The materials include a set of State Pages with some brief information to use for your key facts and such, but otherwise lets you choose where to pull information from to complete the activities. It also includes a bonus “Name That State!” File Folder Game that can familiarize kids with the shape and location of states, capital cities, and more.
|
So, I thought at the beginning that we would go through and do 100% of every activity exactly as instructed and just have a blast learning about Texas this summer, but it turns out that I am just not very good at doing big projects, and this one was actually a lot more work than I realized it would be. In all honestly, I think I like the idea of hands on schoolwork more than the actual implementation of doing all the tasks. In some cases, the activities really just feel more like busy work than an engaging learning activity. For example, we chose to not bother at all with cutting out a recipe card and coloring and putting together a piece of the Lap Book for that, because it’s not something my girls cared about at all. A better fit for our family is finding a recipe that Texas is known for and cooking and eating it.
|
But the state regions activity is nice and simple and educational, and the geography one is very adaptable so we can use in it whatever way best suits us.

Well, that about wraps up my review, but be sure to hop over to the Homeschool Review Crew link-up to see what other reviewers have to say.

Herbert Wise was a director best known for his work on the BBC miniseries I, Claudius. The series, set during the Roman Empire, aired in the U.S. in 1976 on PBS’s Masterpiece Theatre.
|
I, Claudius garnered Wise, who also notably took charge of casting 236 parts for the project, an Emmy Award nomination for Outstanding Directing in a Drama Series. The story unfolded over 13 episodes and starred Derek Jacobi in the title role and John Hurt as Caligula. It was also nominated for Outstanding Limited Series and won the Emmy for Outstanding Art Direction for a Drama Series.
|
Wise received Emmy recognition again in 1982, when he was nominated for directing the television movie Skokie, starring Danny Kaye, Eli Wallach and Brian Dennehy. The telefilm was based on the true story of the predominantly Jewish community of Skokie, Illinois, protesting the right for Neo-Nazis to march in their town.
|
Additionally, Wise directed Richard Burton as Winston Churchill in the 1997 BBC Hall of Fame production The Gathering Storm, which aired on NBC. Wise directed Jacobi again in the 1996 BBC telefilm Breaking the Code, about mathematician Alan Turing, as well as Albert Finney as the title character in 1984’s Pope John Paul II and Robert Mitchum and Deborah Kerr in the 1985 romantic drama Reunion at Fairborough.
|
Wise died August 5, 2015, in London, England. He was 90.

Each writer is entitled to their ain positions and how they allow them act upon their Hagiographas. O’Connor used her religion and the manner she viewed Christianity to pervade her narratives and deliver messages she believed to be the most equal manner to maneuver others of the same or similar religion in the right way. Her upbringing, her environment, and the manner she lived her life had an exponential correlativity with her religion and the manner she tied it into the short narratives mentioned. You perilously word all the information above this bolded country in such a manner that suggests you knew O’Connor. In the bolded country, though, you claim something you can non cognize without reading a beginning, which means you either accidentally plagiarized or you made a headlong claim. One is illegal, and the other is unethical. Besides, retrieve how we can non hold any beginning information in our thesis statement, subject sentences, or decision. Though some claim that her messages are difficult to understand, or may even be misunderstood, her beliefs are still in the Hagiographas themselves. Her characters frequently seem to be missing in religion, or oppugning their religion during the class of each narrative. The words and lines they speak in each piece of literature all have a spiritual significance behind them. Flannery O’Connor expressed spiritual political orientation throughout her short narratives “ Good State Peoples ” and “ A Good Man is Difficult to Find. ” You need to state throughout her authorship. We can discourse why subsequently.
|
Need to bind all subject sentences to O’Connor. In “ A Good Man is Difficult to Find, ” the character The Misfit expressed his uncertainty over the instructions of Jesus and God when discoursing with the grandma. He said things refering to the idea of losing his religion after he was incarcerated in the penitentiary ( O’Connor, “ Good Man ” 375-377 ) . He claimed “ It was the same instance with Him as with me except He had n’t committed any offense and they could turn out that I had committed oneaˆ¦ ” ( O’Connor, “ Good Man ” 376 ) . He believed that no affair what he did, he would be punished. O’Connor most likely believed that adult male will ever confront what he has done one time he comes before concluding judgement. The Misfit mentions Jesus and the manner he threw everything off balance by raising the dead. He claimed that if Jesus truly performed this action, so there was no other pick but to follow his words and instructions. The Misfit besides suggested that if what is said about Jesus were to be false, so there was nil else you could make but do the most of your life while you can. His word pick was much more colourful, imputing to his character and the manner he lived ( O’Connor “ Good Man ” 375-377 ) . The Misfit ‘s actions in the narrative besides coincide with the manner O’Connor perceived God. She stated of God, “ aˆ¦God is non accepted by work forces, so they have to be shocked into a acknowledgment of their demand for him ” ( Mayer 5 ) . The pick of words The Misfit uses during his discoursing with the grandma is to a great extent declarative to the writer ‘s background. Such things are frequently suggested by those of the Roman Catholic religion, the religion that Flannery O’Connor herself followed proudly and stated many times through interviews ( Liukkonen ) .
|
Two old ages after composing “ A Good adult male is Difficult to Find, ” O’Connor wrote “ Good State Peoples, ” showing her positions over the difference in the symbol of the Satan and the darkness of life. When she was asked about the relation between the prankster character Manley Pointer, a immature adult male who posed as a bible salesman, and the Satan, she responded that his character was showing the “ psychological inclination ” ( Hawkes 397 ) I ‘ve pointed out several times that MLA does non let for mentioning in the center of the text. See Purdue Owl. that we see as the darkness of life. When Pointer foremost appears in the narrative, he claims to be a low retainer of Christianity selling Bibles that did n’t want to travel to college due to a bosom status. But as the narrative progresses he tricks Hulga and takes her unreal leg. He even claims that he had done such things several times before in other towns ( O’Connor, “ State Peoples ” 390-391 Shorten the rubric and merely state “ Country ” and go forth the writer and page figure. See Purdue Owl. ) . The prankster character is frequently a pretense for the Satan in many narratives and fabrications throughout Christian instructions. Though one could reason Pointer was a literary incarnation of the Satan, Flannery dismissed this thought. Pointer was simply one who preyed on the faithful for his ain addition ( Hawkes 399 ) . Pointer stated that he had “ been believing in nil of all time since I was born ” ( O’Connor, “ State Peoples ” 391 ) . This character embodies the position that those without religions are lost and merely looking for personal addition. Hulga ‘s character in the narrative was an atheist, much to the discouragement of her female parent, Mrs. Hopewell. Mrs. Hopewell was n’t portrayed as a devout Christian, but she did transport the beliefs and ethical motives of the religion. It even stated that her personal Bible was perchance in the Attic someplace ( O’Connor, “ State Peoples ” 383 ) . The belief that seems to be common between the characters in the narrative “ Good State Peoples ” and O’Connor herself is that if you are in fact good state people, so everything will be good and that their Godhead will judge them kindly when they leave this universe. O’Connor used this message because she shared the same belief, coming from the people she lived about and was raised by ( Friedman 233 ) .
|
A author ‘s environment and upbringing are ever dominant factors in the manner they portray characters and state of affairss throughout their plants. O’Connor was raised in the “ Bible Belt ” part of rural Georgia and was the lone kid of a strongly Roman Catholic household. Her male parent died of Lupus when she was at a really immature age. Over the class of her life, she acquired her instruction and began composing many southern based narratives and pieces such as the two narratives already discussed. After she was diagnosed with the same disease that killed her male parent, she stayed closed to her household place in Milledgeville, GA and continued authorship, integrating her spiritual beliefs into them with the manner Christians should lodge to their way. The at hand sense of the inevitable strengthened her religion during her ulterior old ages. Once she passed off in 1964 ( “ A Study of Flannery O’Connor ” ) , her plants and peculiar authorship manner were left for everyone to analyse and review. But the contents of all of her Hagiographas still contain messages, ethical motives, and instructions of spiritual political orientation ( Abbott 3-8 ) .

Finance Asia has a report on Asian tidal / ocean current power company Atlantis - Tidal power company moves to the next level.
|
Power generation using tidal currents is the latest renewable energy source to emerge as a viable alternative to fossil fuels. The technology has yet to be deployed commercially, but the unparalleled predictability of the movement and intensity of tides suggests it has clear advantages for the power industry, versus some of the other renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power.
|
According to an Atlantis press release, ocean power, which includes tidal current power, wave power and ocean thermal energy conversion, represents a vast source of energy estimated at between 2,000 and 4,000 terawatt hours per year. The US and the UK combined have sufficient ocean power potential to meet around 15% of their power needs.
|
Having spent 10 years developing its turbines, Cornelius says Atlantis is now ready to become the first tidal power developer to establish mini-arrays (essentially farms or fields of multiple subsea turbines of 1 or 2 megawatts each). This will allow it to aggregate the necessary data about environmental and turbine performance before it moves on to apply for permits for projects of a much more significant scale.
|
These commercial projects should see the company turn cash flow positive in 2011, he adds.
|
The company has had a 150KW turbine installed and connected to the grid in Australia since 2006 and is hoping to build up its generation capacity there, but it is also actively looking for several other sites both in Asia and Europe where it can set up trail arrays. It is currently evaluating potential installation opportunities in the Pentland Firth off Northern Scotland, in the Bay of Fundy and in British Columbia off the east and west costs of North America and off the coast of South Korea.
|
China also has the potential to become a “huge” market, according to Cornelius, since the company’s Nereus turbine that is suitable for shallow-water can be deployed not just in tidal oceans, but in rivers too – and that is a resource that China has a plenty of. Atlantis also has a second type of turbine, the Solon, which is a deep-water turbine that can be installed in some of the fastest flowing currents in the world.

We all know that the TV shows nowadays are all scripted even though they are said to be reality. I remember that night Sky broke down and talked about her kids..,it even choked me up. Check out the interview below which features Sky's baby daddy and her son.

This was Reinsdorf's reply on Friday when asked whether the preseason announcement that Phil Jackson will not return as coach of the Bulls next season is, as the French saying goes, a fact accomplished.
|
And the notation on the desk of Reinsdorf, the owner of the Chicago Bulls, also indicates his position regarding Michael Jordan's often-stated contention that he will play for no other coach than Jackson, and he will play for no other team than the Bulls, which would mean no Jordan filling up the nets next season.
|
The Bulls make their final regular-season appearance at Madison Square Garden this afternoon against the Knicks, and it seems inconceivable that Jordan will not return for yet another year, and that neither Jackson nor Scottie Pippen will be with the Bulls, either.
|
Jordan, still the world's greatest hoopster, is leading the National Basketball Association in scoring for the 10th time in his 14 seasons. Even at age 35, he is playing as good an all-round game as ever. Fans, players and team executives know this, so it can hardly be lost on Jordan himself.
|
It is also obvious that His Airness -- a little less airy these days and a little more earthy but ever sovereign -- is having a grand time at his occupation, and satisfying that remarkable lust for competition and success that has made him an indomitable basketball player.
|
Jordan has changed his mind before, remember. He quit basketball to play baseball and quit baseball to play basketball.
|
But hadn't decisions already been made? As recently as early February, Jerry Krause, the Bulls' general manager, reiterated that Jackson would not return next season, after having led the Bulls to five championships and, if the best-laid plans of Krause and his men do not go awry, to a sixth come June.
|
The personality, or perhaps ego, clash between Jackson and Krause is no secret. While he hired Jackson, Krause also believes that after a certain time, a general manager and a coach may tire of each other, as, has been said, Jerry West and Pat Riley did with the Lakers, thereby compelling a change.
|
In fact, personality clashes between Krause and some of his players, including Pippen and Jordan, and assistant coaches over the years have been no secret. It seems, however, that Krause has had no such conflict with the owner of the team. But it also seems clear that Reinsdorf has sought for Krause and staff to zipper their lips in regard to what may transpire at season's end.
|
Still, Reinsdorf's respect for Krause as a basketball operative is lofty, and for good reason. Krause became general manager in 1985, the year after Jordan was drafted. Six seasons later, the Bulls won the first of their championships.
|
''Everyone on the first championship team except Jordan was acquired by Krause,'' Reinsdorf said. That included Pippen, astutely attained in a trade for his draft rights and now seemingly headed elsewhere next season as a free agent, although who knows for sure.
|
Pippen, who will be 33 in September, doesn't talk to Krause, but he does talk to Reinsdorf. And while Pippen is said to be seeking a huge five-year contract, Reinsdorf said he had yet to hear anything like that from Pippen, who has been bitter about what the Bulls have been paying him but has also been making plenty of money with endorsements.
|
Krause took a chance on Dennis Rodman. He found a place for Steve Kerr. He traded a nonentity, Stacey King, for center Luc Longley. He traveled for years to Europe to court Toni Kukoc, and finally snared him. He saw the possibilities in Ron Harper's career being revived.
|
Yes, Krause has had Jordan all this time, but Jordan found that he couldn't do it alone. He didn't win his first championship until his seventh season in the league -- with a requisite ''supporting cast,'' as Jordan termed it.
|
Krause has surely made mistakes, too, such as some draft picks.
|
Krause, meanwhile, sometimes says things without a veneer of suavity. He can rankle in his bluntness, or, sometimes, in his evasiveness. And possibly he is frustrated in not receiving much of the due he believes he deserves.
|
When he received his championship ring for last season along with the rest of the team at the season opener at the United Center, the boos for him were evident. It was odd, since if he had been the general manager of five championships in, say, New York, he could be Mayor of this town -- and on a write-in ballot.
|
So at what point do you make a decision to break up the team?
|
Looking at their history, it is manifest that as a twosome neither Krause nor Reinsdorf is so stupid or driven by ego that he will perpetrate the sublimely imbecilic.
|
The view here is that Jordan will definitely be playing next season with the Bulls, with or without Jackson. But the odds of Jackson returning appear healthy, as well, especially if the Bulls win another title.
|
If there is one exception to ''Nothing is written in stone,'' it is this: It's a bottom-line game.

sailboat. : The sweetest home accessories!
|
You know when you see something that you don't really need but you do really want to have for reasons you can't quite fully explain? Well, that's exactly how I feel about pretty much everything from Qualy. Until a few weeks ago I had never heard of the brand, I had a Zalando voucher and just happened to stumble into the home section where I spotted the sweetest home accessories ever!
|
So, I didn't really need a pink bunny with scissors for ears, a carrot magnet and green paper clips for the carrot top but as soon as I saw it, crazy bunny lady over here was instantly adding it to my basket and hitting checkout! I'm really impressed with the quality, I did think the £15 price tag was a little much but I've changed my mind because the scissors are actually really good, it doesn't feel or look cheap in any way and, well, it's undeniably cute! I love it so much!
|
Qualy Log & Squirrel Flower Pot!
|
I'm not known for my green thumb, in fact I'm notoriously rubbish at keeping plants alive but I'm going to try and be better now I have this super cute flower pot! I don't have a plant to put in it at the moment but I'm actually really excited to go and get one, any excuse for a trip to the garden centre I'll happily take! When there's water in the bottom the squirrel floats up, which is perfect for a plant killer like me because I'll always know when I need to add some more water. At £25 this certainly isn't cheap, but again I'm really happy with the quality & everything comes apart so I think it'll be really easy to clean. To be honest it was the little squirrel that totally sold me on this, look at those sweet little eyes, too cute!
|
Do you have a favourite home accessories brand?
|
Do you have anything from Qualy?
|
The only thing that I found with the pot was that somehow the roots have gone down the string and completely intertwined with it so I won't be able to use the pot for another plant in the future :') Still absolutely adorable though!
|
I really love the Qualy range, I've been fancying the bunnies for agfes, have you seen the paperclip ones as well?
|
DUh, I meant the tape one.
|
The desk bunny is just sooo lovely!
|
You got the bunny! Jealous, it's totally on my list after you posted about it before. That plant pot is exactly what I need too! Horrible at watering plants and keeping them alive. We even just tried again recently with some herbs. Sad days when they die!
|
Super adorable. I love the pink bunny!
|
These are so cute! I love them both, the squirrel is such a fab idea, too.
|
Oh my goodness, I want them both! So freaking adorable.
|
Oh my goodness. I need one of these in my life, this would totally perk up my desk at work!
|
Far too much love for these things!
|
Omg! How adorable is that bunny?!
|
Oh my, the squirrel is just too cute!!!!
|
Oh my dear, these are so so cute! I adore the bunny. It stole my heart.
|
That desk bunny is actually the best thing I've ever seen, their things are so lovely!
|
Oh my, these are a bit too adorable eh!!

Denver: Sept. 6 - 9 at Sie FilmCenter.
|
It all started 3 months back when two of us, me and Saquib were chatting over our late night coffee destination about going somewhere far from Bangalore. And, this time the plan was to push our bikes to a 10 days plan and explore a state, if possible. Probable destinations that came to our mind were Rajasthan, Maharashtra and Gujarat. Argument started over coffee and we felt Rajasthan would be too far for us to ride from Bangalore and Maharashtra looks best during monsoon and hence we were left with Gujarat. This was something which each one of us wanted to do, especially visit the Rann of Kutch and I very well knew that this time we are going there for sure as the planning started in full swing. Although it was initially me and Saquib who kicked off with the planning and research, we decided to pull in some close pals of ours who might be interested for this long road trip. Sunil, Tapabrata, Ashish and Eshwari (who would be joining us from Gandhinagar) showed immense interest in our plan and we were more than happy with the group which formed now. We decided to start for the trip on 31st January, 2014 (Saturday) and come back to Bangalore by 11th February, 2014 (Wednesday).
|
The days crossed by and our excitement meter was becoming unstable day by day. We were meeting at times, just to check if everything was on track, ran through the route map again and again so that everyone knows the route very well. Unfortunately, Sunil could only be starting by the second half of Saturday and hence he targeted to join us directly at Gandhinagar.

Few days before the ride started and we hit a major setback: Saquib had a situation in his office and his could not get the leaves approved. This came as a big blow to get us because he was the person who was the mastermind behind this mega plan and all of us wanted him to be part of our group.

Day 1 started with me, Tapabrata and Ashish riding from Bangalore and our target was to halt at Pune. We decided to start around 4 am in the morning to avoid all the early morning traffic. Once you are on the road, you hardly get to know what time it is, and it always surprises you. This stretch being arrow straight road, you tend to fall asleep, especially when your tummy is full. With couple of breaks including breakfast, lunch, tea and most importantly, photo breaks, when we reached outskirts of Pune, around 8 pm in the evening and we started looking for lodges along the highway. After few searches, we ended up at a decent enough lodge with an adjoining restaurant where we decided to bunk for the night.

Target for Day 2 was to reach Gandhinagar as we had already booked a hotel and the group was supposed to rendezvous at the hotel. So, as planned, we got ready as soon as possible and got out on the highway by 4:45 am. It was chilly as usual and I was shivering with cold, but on the other hand, the roads were completely new for me as this was an unknown territory for me, so feeling cold was at the back of my mind and watching out on the road was always my priority. We crossed beautiful places like Lonavala, Khandala and with the rising sun at the back of a train of hills, the scenery looked beautiful which made us stop at multiple places for pictures. It was an eventful day, starting with 3 of us entering the Mumbai-Pune Expressway by mistake and ended up paying up fine to the cops, to having lip smacking vada pavs for breakfast to sudden increase in the traffic, especially of the tucks and trollers which kept on testing our patience all throughout the highway in Gujarat to getting stuck at the infamous Golden Bridge in Bharuch for 2 hours and last but not the least, falling prey on big potholes on SH 3 near Ahmedabad and losing my taillight. By the time we reached Gandhinagar, it was 10:30 pm and dead tired. Eshwari was waiting for us at the hotel and when enquired about whereabouts of Sunil, we came to know even he had issues with his bike near Mumbai and he could not proceed further as well. That was a moderate blow to our itinerary, but more importantly, we needed some rest.

Rise and Shine Day 3. We got the rest what we wanted, and I found a mechanic to fix my bike's taillight. So, after having breakfast from the hotel, we headed towards Sabarmati Ashram and Sabarmati riverfront in Ahmedabad, after which we headed towards Radhanpur. The initial plan of visiting Patan was dropped because of the delay of Sunil's arrival and instead, we decided to approach our next destination, the Little Rann of Kutch. Blissful tarmac all throughout, this is what we expected and heard about Gujarat and everyone of us were happy to ride on them. The more we approached Radhanpur, we noticed a change in the landscapes. We were no more surrounded by lush green fields, rather now we were able to see barren lands welcoming us from time to time, a notable decrease in vegetation. We crossed Radhanpur and headed towards Santalpur where we decided to bunk for the night. Constant touch with Sunil made us aware of him approaching Radhanpur for the night, so he can catch up with us the next day.
