The Daisy team love mess just as much as the Poppy’s and so creative and sensory opportunities continue to be one of the main focuses in here too.
Being 2 years old is so exciting, the Daisy children now have more words and love to sing and dance and have so much energy – from nursery rhymes to stories, train tracks to dollies, dinosaurs to painting pictures there is so much to do, the children never want to go home!!
The children in the Daisy room have the opportunity to join in Wiggle and Roll sessions at the local gymnastics club (where Kimberley is a Coach) Yoginis (Yoga for mini people) Dance & Movement Music and Singing sessions.
Meet our pre-school children, here our eldest children are busy getting “School ready”.
Enjoying all the fantastic opportunities the children downstairs have, Sand, Water, Book, Construction, Painting, Role play and Investigation areas, these children also enjoy numbers and patterns, ICT and computer work. We introduce the children to letters & sounds sessions, with an emphasis on “Jolly Phonics”.
The Sunflowers have their own delightful roof top garden, which also has an undercover area for all weather play.
These children also get to enjoy all the fabulous extra curriculum opportunities as the Daisy’s but also get to go swimming once a week too.
We love being outdoors in the Sunflower Room and so use the local park all the time, “Muddyboots” is a part of our curriculum that allows us to explore nature and the world around us, especially as we have the park right on our doorstep!!
Staff loosely follow the principles of “Forest Schools” and with our wellies, waterproofs and water bottles off we go for a fun filled adventure every time!!
All our children work towards the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). The children under 3 mainly work on the PRIME AREAS of the curriculum – Personal, Social & Emotional Development. Communication & Language & *Physical Development.
Once the children become really secure in these areas, our skilled practitioners then introduce the SPECIFIC AREAS – Literacy, Mathematics Understanding the World & Creative Development.
The Bluebell room is a multipurpose room, used by different groups throughout the week. Children attending for just the free 15 hour sessions will have their 3 hours per day delivered from here. All children aged 3 – 5 are entitled to a free 15 hours per week place (the term after their 3rd birthday) as well as some 2 year olds.
Sessions are morning or afternoon 8.45am – 11.45pm or 12.15 – 3.15pm.
The room is bright and spacious, again with its own garden – all the usual provision areas can be found from painting and drawing to construction and role play.
This room is also used for Breakfast and After school club with pickup and drop offs at Whitegate End, New Moston & St Margaret Marys primary schools.
Holiday care will be available subject to demand.

When I was little, there was no radio in our house; our parents were deaf. Our grandparents had a big table-model Philco in their parlor. Just as kids nowadays tease for an iPhone, I kept asking for a radio until I got it. A tiny, dark-brown Bakelite-cased Arvin, it sat on the sideboard in our dining room.
Every weekday, from 4:45 till 6:00 in the afternoon, I pulled my long-legged chair up to the sideboard, turned on the radio, and gazed at the dial. Many of you must remember "watching the radio" and memorizing the numbers of the AM dial, from 520 to 1610 kilohertz. I could tell from the glances I got from my parents as I sat there – sitting still for longer than at any other time in my life – that they suspected I was listening to something inappropriate and possibly sinful.
At 4:45 a voice crackled over a simulated radio transmission: "CX4 to control tower. CX4 to control tower. Standing by…" The answer was immediate: "Control tower to CX4. Wind southeast, ceiling 1200. All clear."
"This is Hop Harrigan, coming in!" So it went: five 15-minute episodes, featuring Jack Armstrong, Captain Midnight; Terry and the Pirates, and finally Tom Mix.
Evenings, there were half-hour shows – The Green Hornet; The Shadow, in real life Lamont Cranston, "wealthy young man-about-town" who once in the Orient had learned to "cloud men’s minds so they cannot see him."
Everything we imagined was the product of our separate minds’ eyes. When the Lone Ranger walked across the board platform of a railroad station, each of us constructed a different scene. It was like the famous "driveway moments" on Public Radio; you could do nothing else demanding thought while you were into an on-air drama. Listening to archived recordings now reveals it to have been pretty simplistic drivel. Still, wasn’t it glorious!

So you want a college degree.
In the USA, about the only acceptable answer is “Chaaa, to get a bitchin’ new Camaro, hombre!” If you are a parent and already have a bitchin’ Camaro, you want your children to go to college so they, too, can afford their own bitchin’ Camaros. Education is just that important! More education, more Camaros.
Do you think I’m cynical? Do you think I consider my countrymen to be that crass and — heaven forfend — stupid?
Well, yes I am. And yes, yes I do.
I’ve based my conclusions on a lifetime of observations of what Americans truly value. It isn’t education, really. We don’t care what kind of low-brow, thick-fingered troglodyte dullard you resemble as long as you have good credit and faithfully participate in consumerism. A college education has traditionally been the best path to full citizenship, where you extract the maximum compensation from a corporation in order to pay for dumb stuff that’s supposed to make you happy and obviously better than others.
So really, I support free college for everyone. I’d like college degrees to be so common that they no longer represent any potential income advantage at all. I’d like to see the market flooded with not only liberal-arts majors, but also engineers, doctors, scientists — everything. At that point, we’ll all be living with mom until we’re 40 while working at Starbucks, and this whole spurious correlation of degree with income will be a distant memory. We’ll get to study whatever we want, and to get back to actually valuing education over GM’s answer to the Ford Mustang.
You with me on this? I hope so.
Anyway, when politicians on stage talk about making college more available or even free, some people in their audiences get excited. The people who get excited are people who haven’t yet gone to college, or parents of people who haven’t yet gone. Then, there are those who get resentful. These are the people still making college loan payments.
In the minds of the people who get excited there floats one specific image. It’s not an image of long nights spent inhaling the wisdom buried in books, nor hunched over a laptop writing the one research paper to end all research papers. It’s not an image of long conversations on campus with other seekers, when all come to some new mutual understanding of a truth revealed. It’s not an image of a lifetime spent as an enlightened citizen armed with the knowledge and cognitive tools to make good choices in one’s community and to truly participate in democracy.
No. The image is of a yellow Camaro. With stripes. Just like Bumblebee from Transformers.
So perhaps it’s only just that college not be free after all. It’s not really about education, see. It’s more like a business. Put in your 4-6 years and your $100K-$250K and if you’ve played your cards right, you have income for life. But the only way this can work is if there is some entrance fee. Gotta keep it exclusive in some way. There aren’t enough Camaros to go around.
First, install the dependencies. This is for Ubuntu Server 14.04.
Create a new file (e.g. launch-spot.py) and give it exec permissions (chmod +x launch-spot.py).
The script is less than 200 lines long and should be readable from top to bottom.
Set your Amazon AWS access keys as environment variables.
Or you can read the boto documentation to find out how to store the keys in configuration files.
Waiting for launch . . . . . .
Waiting for instance to boot . . . .
-n stands for --name and it is how you can identify this spot instance.
The profiles are hard coded in the script. Feel free to modify the script to load them from an external configuration file (in JSON perhaps).
You can run the script again and as long as you use the same name it will resume.
To run a script on this instance via SSH use one or more -s arguments.
Connecting to SSH [54.74.149.116] .
You can copy & paste the last line in your terminal and connect to the instance.
As you can see, if you haven't specified key_pair in the profile, a new key pair will be created with the name KP-test and it will be saved as KP-test.pem.
If there's no security_group in the profile, a new one will be created with the name SG-test and the rules from the firewall profile setting will be applied. At a minimum, SSH from your IP should be allowed.
If you want to stop the spot instance, simply run sudo halt on the instance. The instance, the instance request and disks (if auto terminate is on) will automatically be shut down and terminated.
If you use a simple bash script, I suggest using one like this. set -e will stop the execution if an error occurs. If the script finished successfully, it will not be run again.
If you share a provisioning script with Vagrant and AWS, you can use this line to check if you are running on AWS EC2 or locally on Vagrant.
Amazon Ubuntu mirrors and apt-get can be slow and flaky. Especially if you hit CTRL+C while the script is executing apt-get and then run it again.
Create a file system on the instance disk and move /home, /tmp and /swapfile to it. This can be useful on large SSD backed instance disks.
To upload/download files to S3 on AWS and use local files in /vagrant when running in Vagrant, you could do something like this.
We are halfway through utility and other construction on 1300 East between 2100 South and 1300 South! Come get updated on progress and the Spring 2019 construction phase of the project on Thursday, December 6th.
The event is a public open house at East High School Commons, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Representatives from SLC Department of Public Utilities and the City’s Engineering and Transportation divisions will be on hand with maps, information, and answers to questions regarding the nearly completed sewer and water line work and upcoming road repaving, curb and gutter rehab, bike lanes, and transit stops.
We anticipate the entire project will be completed by late Fall 2019.
Helesti Daye-Fourie never leaves her house after dark. The risk of being carjacked and shot standing in her own driveway is too high.
Every day after picking up her eight-year-old son from school, the Johannesburg mum-of-two takes a different route home, eyes on the rear-view mirror. Her 20-month-old toddler sits in his car seat behind her, where he can easily be grabbed at a moment’s notice.
That’s because Ms Day-Fourie doesn’t want her son, in the event of an attack, to be trapped by his seatbelt, dragged along outside of the car and killed — as happened to a four-year-old boy whose parents and sister were forced out of their car by three armed men in nearby Boksburg, just 30 minutes away.
In Centurion, an hour’s drive away, a two-year-old was shot in the head during an attempted carjacking earlier this year.
Here are several examples of my work in charcoal portraits.
If you like what you see and are interested in commissioning me to do a portrait for you, feel free to contact me and we can discuss it.
A dramatic charcoal portrait of yourself or someone you love is something that will always be appreciated, and can be passed down as a treasured heirloom.
I don't do it for a living, so I have no set procedure or pricing. But I won't do it for free!
The following images are between 80 and 120 kilobytes in file size.
The slightly annoying animated picture above of the greatest composer of the 20th century (Shostakovich) was drawn in the Paint program that comes with Windows. It's a very basic program (why else would Microsoft give it away with their operating sysem?), but you can still do some effective drawing with it provided you have the patience. I drew this with the mouse in five sessions, saving a copy at the end of each session. Then I imported the folder containing these five files into the Imageready program of Adobe PhotoShop and created an animation out of the drawing process simply by running each file sequentially. It's interesting to see the drawing process through time lapse images. I don't know about you, but the power of the computer opens up worlds of fun for me!

I'm thinking you can figure out how to get to this point by looking at the pictures.
There's already sort of a hole to go through, I just stretched it out a little.
Do an upside down pull-through by pulling the pony up through the hole and over the top.
Cute & a great way to keep all the smaller pieces from flying away during the day! I think either ponytail looks cute! My computer is broken so I am trying to play quick catch-up while I have access to another one.
Thats so pretty, my daughter would never have stood still for long enough to let me do anything as creative as that with her hair.
It looks like Rainbow Bright!
Love it.. was looking for unique ponies..

Just took a “Trophy of a Lifetime” What’s Next?
You have just harvested a trophy of a lifetime maybe it will even make the Boone and Crocket or Pope and Young record books, now what? This experience may not be encountered again for many years for most hunters, so you need to be made aware of the questions a taxidermist will ask you and what you need to Mounted Whitetail Deerask them before contacting a taxidermist. You also know that you will have the animal mounted by a reputable taxidermist. Selecting a taxidermist can be almost as challenging as harvesting your new trophy.
What Room will Display the Mounted Animal?
Where are you going to hang your new trophy mount? The room in which the mount will hang is a contributing factor on the pose you will select for the mount. There are so many poses available! If your ceilings are around 8′ high or a basement den, the ceilings are not likely to be vaulted. How tall are the antlers? A full upright taxidermy pose might require the mount to hang low on the wall. There are three basic form poses – upright, semi-sneak, and full sneak. With an upright form, the neck is in a vertical position almost parallel to the wall. The semi sneak form has the neck and head down at approximate 40 degree angle off the wall. The full sneak pose has the neck at almost 85 degrees from the wall. For a low ceiling, a semi sneak or full sneak may be the better choice for your new trophy mount.
