When it comes to finishing uni, there is a huge sense of the end of one chapter and the beginning of the next.
It is a rites-de-passage of those graduates who finish their academic studies and embark on a career as they venture into the big wide world.
However, despite the raft of changes in a young person's life as they cross the divide, there is one issue that goes unreported when it comes to returning to the family home.
That is… what on earth to do with all the stuff that is accumulated after years away at uni!?!?
This is an issue that nobody really speaks about. Its impact is huge, not just on the recent graduate as they now have to make quick decisions about what to keep and what to throw away, but for the parents and other family members in the house: their once pristine palace has now become host to fausty piles of t-shirts bearing suggestive slogans and semi-mouldy mugs that have never seen the nirvana of a dishwasher.
So, now that you invade the family home with essentially two rooms' worth of goods, how do you declutter and decide what to keep, what to throw out and what to store away?
This seems like an obvious one, but keep anything that will come in handy in the immediate future. If leading a decluttered life is important to you, it's always best to only keep things that are of use to you in the short to medium term.
This includes stationery, computer hardware and clothing.
However, if you return with twice the wardrobe but you have half the room, try and assess which items of clothing will be of use to you as opposed to keeping things because of memories such as sporting tops and festival/gig t-shirts. Whilst these hold sentimental value, they're not going to be ideal garments to wear on your first day of work or wedding day.
Be ruthless! If something will never be of use to you ever again, get rid of it! Unless it is extremely important from a sentimental perspective, you are best placed to cut your losses and dispose of it in a responsible manner.
If novelty items fall into this category such as inflatable bananas, road signs and straw hats, see if your local authority has a recycling centre you can use. This means the items may get recycled and they won't take up space on your wall gathering dust and being a general eyesore to all who enter your room. Or, depending on the item (and its condition), consider donating it to charity instead.
After all, what may seem appropriate in a student house will not necessarily work in your family home.
This is the middle-ground. Even if things aren't useful in the short-to-medium future, it doesn't mean they can't be put to good use later in life once you have your own home.
Items such as crockery, cleaning goods, cooking utensils and sporting equipment can all be put to good use further down the line. These are the types of items that probably cost good money and they will come in very handy when you come to make a home for yourself.
Store these away safely and in damp-proof containers in an attic space, shed or third-party storage facility that is close to you and easily accessible.
If you need residential storage, such as student storage (e.g. if you've not yet graduated), then why not consider Easystore Self Storage? Our storage units in Cardiff and Bridgend are conveniently located, open 24/7 every day of the year and include other perks such as free contents insurance (you can see a full list of perks here).

A: Assuming html is correct, http://jsfiddle.net/sbAvB/
css should be something like this then:
#main{
    width:900px;
    margin: auto; }

#header{
    height:150px;
    width:100%
}

#picL
{
    float:left;
}

#text{
    position:absolute;
    left:50%;
    right:50%;
    width:70%;
}

#picR
{
    float:right;
    margin-right:0px;   }

Likely the issue is a lack of a position/margin variables set in the css properties. To align multiple objects in a line, one way to do this is.

Don't Have a Lawyer and Facing an Examination for Discovery?
Facing an examination for discovery or deposition in a family law case can be intimidating. The thought of sitting in a boardroom while an overzealous lawyer peppers you with questions and a stenographer looks on with cruel indifference can be the cause of many sleepless nights. This is especially true if you are self-represented and do not have a lawyer to advise and protect you.
More and more often in family law cases, people are representing themselves. The reasons for this are many but most often it is due to a lack of funds to pay for a lawyer and being rejected by Legal Aid. This issue has gotten so bad that in some places the majority of family law files have at least one self-represented party. New models of legal services are required to deal with this issue and that is why Crossroads Law offers legal coaching and unbundled legal services to help people represent themselves better in family law cases.

CHURCH, Season Three, Episode Three
Episode Three
'6pm, concert tonight,' The Supervisor texted.
'Can't. Stuck painting. Back in The City for weekend shifts,' Noodle shot back.
'I need you tonight,' The Supervisor replied.
'Sorry…The Manager approved this time off. The sooner I get this contract done, the sooner you'll have me back full time.'
"Where's Noodle tonight?" The Barracuda asked The Supervisor.
"I don't know," The Supervisor shrugged, "He hasn't been showing up for work."
"I'll tell you where he is. He's outside, hanging in the sun all day, slapping paint on a wall and getting paid for it! That must be nice," The Barracuda planted.
"Noodle's an Assassin," The Manager planted his own disinformation, "This painting thing's just cover."
"My ass," The Barracuda dismissed.
"I'm telling you, he's an Assassin for the government," The Manager continued, "You lost your guy Washington, didn't you?"
"Washington was a loudmouth. Mark my words: Noodle's going to get killed. He's not a killer…Noodle's the prey!"
"Be careful what you say about Noodle."
"Assassin," The Manager whispered then slipped away.
So The Barracuda went to find The SquishHead. He found him with The Meat Packer, whose head was bent over a cell phone.
"Hey 'Cuda, check out this picture!" The Meat Packer said and turned the phone around.
"Why would you show me a picture of a guy in his underwear?" The Barracuda complained and pushed the phone away.
"Here, take a closer look," The Meat Packer said, "Scroll up!"
"Oh. My. God!" The Barracuda exclaimed. "That's Doughboy! How on earth did you get this photo?"
"He got naked with some dude over at Waterhouse College!"
"What a fag!" The Barracuda laughed. "And you guys are queers too, for staring at this picture! SquishHead, I need you to do something for me."
"You're friends with Noodle, right? The next time you see him, find out where he's painting. Figure out if he's painting in Rockton or not, okay?"
"Easy," The SquishHead confirmed.
"Oh, and one more thing," The Barracuda added.
"Please forward me that nude photo of Doughboy!"
On Friday night The Detective stood in The Lobby talking to The Manager. Noodle would have given anything to hear what they were saying.
"So, what happened on the night The Patsy was almost killed?" The Detective asked The Manager.
"God, are you still investigating that?"
"Are you avoiding my questions?"
"I'm not avoiding anything…"
"You still haven't answered."
"Look, that was a long time ago."
"Good people mature with age."
"I've already told you everything I know."
"Which is?"
"Which is nothing!"
"You run this place and you know nothing about the night in question?"
"That's right. I know nothing."
"Look, I know how The Gang works: No one talks to The Cops."
"I tried to help you. We even brought The Showman in here so you could interview him."
"That was a dead-end. There had to have been someone else."
"I don't know anything," The Manager shrugged.
"That's not why I'm here," The Detective pushed.
"What's with you people?" The Manager cried. "Then, why are you here?"
"US people?"
"Detectives," The Manager groaned.
"I know why you're here."
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Sure you do," The Detective interrogated. "You're their slave!"
"I don't know what you're talking about," The Manager continued to deny.
"I heard about those photos," The Detective smiled.
"I'm not reaching out for any help," The Manager refused.
"I'm not here to help you."
"God! Then why are you here?"
"I'm here for him," The Detective glanced toward Noodle.
"Who? Noodle? What do you want with him?"
"You know he's a good kid, from a good family, with a bright future when this is all over."
"I know. Noodle's awesome!"
"Then what's he doing working here?" The Detective tried to piece together. "How'd he get to be working for The Gang?"
"I don't know," The Manager lied.
"Look, I don't want the same thing that happened to you, to happen to him."
"It better not."
"I'm telling you, it won't."
"If it does," The Detective pointed his finger, "I'm going to blame you."
"Come on man, I have to get back inside. The Gang is going to get suspicious if we stand around here talking for too long…you know what I mean?"
"I'll let you go. But don't forget what I said!"
"I won't," The Manager said and went upstairs.
"What was that all about?" The Barracuda asked.
"Nothing, The Detective was just asking about stuff."
"Asking about what?"
"I don't know, about The Patsy."
"What did you tell him?"
"I told him everything I know: Which is nothing!" The Manager smiled.
The SquishHead ran up behind Noodle. "Noodle, wanna split a cab home?"
"Sure, but I have to stop by the box office first to collect my check."
"I'll wait," The SquishHead agreed.
There Noodle found a case of Sleep Nectar, one-hundred four ounce bottles of it, marketed as the antidote to caffeine infused vodka drinks.
He tried to read the contents, but those tiny bottles were filled with ingredients that had so many letters, each unpronounceable chemical scrolled from one end of the bottle to the other, and continued on line below that, and below it again.
"Manager, I was wondering if you had my check from last week?"
"What's in your hand Noodle?"
"Sleep Nectar. I found it outside the door."
"Noodle, do not drink that!" The Manager advised.
"Thanks for the warning; I can't even read the ingredients. It should just say: Unfit for human consumption."
"Noodle, I have good news for you."
"Tell me!"
"We found someone else to work the lobby. Starting next week you'll be working upstairs with everyone else."
"Thanks Manager, I love you man!"
"Noodle, there's no need to get all emotional. Get out of here. Go have some fun with the other kids!"
The SquishHead was waiting for him on the other side of the office.
"I met these girls tonight," The SquishHead said, "They invited to go home with them."
"You should have gone!"
"They were from Rockton, do you know where that is?" The SquishHead asked.
"No," Noodle lied. "I don't know where that is."
"I'm going to call them, hold on…" The SquishHead took out his phone and called the girls that he'd apparently met.
"They're in the car already, on the highway, headed south to Rockton. Do you know how to get to Rockton?"
"I wouldn't have the faintest idea," Noodle answered. "I don't know where that is."
"You could come with me. We could have sex with a bunch of girls. Noodle, how do we get to Rockton? I have a car!"
"What would a car help if neither of us knows where Rockton is?" Noodle joked.
In the morning Noodle grabbed his painting kit and headed South, through Rockton, to Binghamton. He spent the week roasting in the sun, scraping and sanding The Iron Shield's home.
At Majesty, The Barracuda printed the picture of Doughboy posing in his underwear and called in a couple of his associates.
"Hey 'Cuda, why are you printing gay porn?" Hayden, the bigger of the two boys behind him, laughed.
"Listen to me, "The Barracuda commanded. Here is what I want you to do. I want you to take this picture to CopyMax and make a thousand copies. What does it cost, ten cents a copy? Here's one-hundred bucks."
"Why, so you can tape them all over your ceiling?" Hayden laughed again, and turned to watch his boys laughing along with him.
"No, you fool. I want you to take the photos down to Waterhouse campus and post them on every door and telephone pole you see."
"Got it 'Cuda."
"And just so you're aware, we have friends down there, so I'm gonna know if you take that hundred bucks and don't use it for exactly what I say."
Hayden frowned. "It's going to cost one-hundred dollars for the photo copies."
"That's why I gave you a hundred bucks, idiot."
"Yeah, but Waterhouse college is like forty miles each way. What about some money for gas?"
"Money for gas! That's why you get to come to The Club every weekend and drink for free!"
"Yeah, but it's kinda like we're working while we're here, too."
"Hayden, no buts. You've got it made, okay? Now get out of my office. And paste those pictures everywhere! Right on Doughboy's door if you can find out where he lives!"
On Wednesday night, after everyone at his school had seen the picture that The Barracuda had posted, The Doughboy called out sick.
"Where's Doughboy tonight?" The Barracuda smiled.
"He called out sick."
"I wonder why that is?"
"He says he has hives."
"Isn't that too bad! Where's Noodle?"
"I don't know. Painting or something."
"Supervisor, let me tell you something, you are too kind to your employees. Think of them like dogs: You have to exert your dominance or they will chew your house apart. What do you do when your own dog barks back at you?"
"I don't know 'Cuda. What do you do?"
"You slap it in the face. Show that mutt whose boss!"
On Thursday night, after dark, Noodle's cousin picked him up from Iron Shield's house.
"How's the painting going?" She asked.
"Great! I should be finished at some point next week. Where's your new house?"
"Mercury Lake."
"Cool! Take me to see it; you could give me a tour! Hey cousin…"
"What's up Noodle?"
"Once a Detective paid me a surprise visit at The Club and he told me he knew you."
"I was friends with a girl in college whose father was a City Detective."
"It was weird that he came in the middle of the night when no one else was working. I felt like he was coming to check on me. Do you know what I mean?"
"Here's the thing: Do you think that he's Good Police, or a Bad Cop?"
"I think he's Good Police."
"You have to be absolutely sure that he's not on the take, and you can never talk to him about me. They have rules against that."
"Rules against what?"
"No one talks to the Police!"
"That's weird," Noodle's cousin sighed.
"Why are you asking me about The Detective then?"
"Because I feel like people are stalking me, people who claim to be my friends. I want to make sure that I have other friends, in case my friends turn out to be no so friendly."
"Why would people be stalking you?"
"I don't know! I don't think I'm that interesting. But listen to this: When I just asked for this time off they kept on asking me where I was going to be painting…like they wanted the physical address."
"That's weird. Maybe they were just curious."
"But they were being creepy about it, so I lied to protect my privacy. I told them that I was painting in Rockton. And then last weekend this guy named SquishHead kept asking if I knew where Rockton is. Even after I denied any knowledge of it, he kept insisting that I tell him where Rockton was!"
"Maybe it was just a coincidence."
"Maybe, but it struck me as particularly strange because he was asking me for information that I had purposefully presented as counter-intelligence."
"What are you like a spy?"
"Cousin, listen to me. He's the spy! If we were at war, and someone asked where the nuclear weapons were stored, and you lied and said that they were in Warehouse B; and then, a week later warehouse B got robbed…then I'm pretty sure that the person you'd just told about warehouse B is a freaking spy!"
"You'd be good at that! How's the Army going?"
"I'd make a terrible spy because I hate lying to people. Lies destroy our world. I'm still trying to get into The Army, I'm missing a recommendation from my flight instructor."
"Call him. Maybe he forgot."
"I've called him, and he said he forgot. But I've reminded him two or three times now, and his mother just died, and he has religious reservations about war and killing people and all that," Noodle rambled. "I don't like asking people for stuff. At this point, my fate's in his hands!"
While Noodle toured his cousin's new home, The Roommate was at Majesty in a meeting with The Manager.
"Are you sure that he's the mark?" She asked. "I don't think that Noodle's in The Gang."
"What makes you so sure?"
"Well, he's really nice for one."
"The successful ones are. How do you think he made all his money?"
"I don't know. He seems poor. He doesn't have any stuff."
"Roommate, it's just a front! He owns the house you live in, you know."
"That's what your job is: Find out how! Where is he right now?"
"I don't know, he's away somewhere."
"Exactly! Go through his stuff and find out where he is," The Manager ordered.
"I did, I did what you told me to do."
"And what did you find?"
"Nothing. His file cabinets are locked."
"He's an Assassin!"
"He's not an Assassin," The Roommate dismissed.
When Noodle got back to his apartment in MetroNorth he lugged his heavy duffle bag upstairs.
"Where have you been?" The Roommate asked.
"I told you, I had a painting contract. I have to pay my bills this year!"
"What's with all those lights on the back porch?"
"They're work lights, for when I paint interiors."
"Sometimes I take money from work; I slip it into my boot." The Roommate confessed, hoping to receive a mutual admission.
"Roommate, you shouldn't do that! And you defiantly shouldn't have told me. Don't ever tell anyone that again, okay?"
"Okay. But do you ever take money when you work the door?"
"Nope!" Noodle answered.
"Sorry about the mess," The Roommate apologized.
"I'm making a dress for a cancer benefit. I want to be a fashion designer."
"Roommate, creativity is life. Don't ever give up on your artistic pursuits, and don't ever apologize for it! Use my living room as your art studio."
The Roommate felt awful that Noodle was so nice to her after she had let someone go through his things. She ran to her room and quietly withdrew a razor from her make-up case. She made three small incisions into the flesh of her thigh, where no-one would see.
Just as Noodle finished unpacking, The Roommate returned to the kitchen.
"Sorry for crying," she apologized.
"I just went into my bedroom to cry."

My question is fairly straightforward would consiousness never exist if that "subject" was not subject to information from the external world via the "subjects" senses because of a "fault" in the method by which these senses transmit the information to there destination.
So iam asking does the manifestation of consiousness require the reciept of information from an external world in order to "create" that consiousness or would it still be "created" if the circumstances meant that it was subject to nothingness.
If the consiouss needs sensory input to create the individual that consious is, can they conclude that if you say " i think and therefore iam" meaning that that consious is real. From that and the necessesity of sensory input for that consious to exist don't you conclude the world that consious is subject to is also real?
Or is the statement "I think therefore I am" incorrect because it manifests from consious thoughts resulting from a language that consious uses in its thoughts, where a subject subject to nothingness has a consious but could not concieve of language and similarly could not experience the same thought.
The issue I have with this question is that perhaps the use of the word consciousness is imprecise in this case. What I think you're really asking about is awareness.
Let's conduct a quick thought experiment.
Take everything you know; every piece of knowledge that you possess, all the experiences, everything you've seen and heard, and put it on a hard drive for safe keeping. Is that drive conscious? Of course not. Is it aware? No. It's an inanimate storage device that contains data it doesn't understand and does not have the faculties or potential to do so, largely because it's static.
Conversely; take a new born baby and place it in a sensory deprivation chamber for 20 years. Feed it intravenously but restrict it from having ANY contact through senses with the outside world. Is the 20 year old conscious? Most certainly. Is it aware, or at least self aware? Highly unlikely. New born babies are conscious according to our definition, but they aren't aware. It's not until they are about 2 years old (generally speaking) that they exhibit behaviours that indicate that they have become aware of themselves as a separate entity from their carers.
From this, we can infer that awareness is more than just knowledge, but consciousness is more an 'always on' state of input and consolidation of the stimuli around us.
To be sure, not all knowledge will lead to awareness, and the structure of the knowledge we leave behind for the next generation is what has allowed humans to develop so quickly in this regard. If we had to learn everything from scratch for ourselves rather than being able to short cut the process by quickly absorbing the knowledge of others, we would not have the tools we need to build our awareness even today (in my opinion). That we can order and categorise our knowledge and apply a set of rules to it in order to build upon it is what has given us this ability.
So; perhaps we can say that consciousness is the engine of self awareness, and our knowledge and processing frameworks (like language, logic, maths etc.) are the fuel.
It's a fair question. However, you are stating the answer to the question. You're saying the same thing in different ways. You couldn't have Consciousness without senses nor vice versa. It's like trying to separate water from water.
I would have to say no. The way I see it, the purpose of consciousness is to resolve conflicting desires. Without input from reality, such conflict wouldn't arise.
Sometimes is not the word that matters but the meaning the word implies. There is a thin layer between concepts such us existence, consciousness and awareness. Would you ever exist if nobody were conscious of your existence or the actions of your existence in the whole history of the universe in the past of future? If so it's because you have taken a solipsistic approach. Your mind and the information in it would be the whole universe. If your mind were the whole universe would you identify yourself with every thought in it?
The quote from Descartes "I think therefore I am" from his Evil Demon it's not entirely accurate from an eastern philosophy point of view because he identified himself as a thinking entity at his core but how could he have known that his thoughts were not also created by the demon? How can you be sure at 100% that your thoughts are your thoughts and no created by another entity you are not aware of? Are you aware of your unconscious processes of your mind?
From my personal view I tend to accept the neuroscientific one, consciousness its just the capacity the mind has to perceive the passing of time which is different from creating mental sentences, ideas, memories etc. E.g. experienced meditators with no thoughts in their minds know that they are conscious and they exist here and now without having any thoughts.
Existence is metaphysical, and identifying yourself with your mind from a Buddhistic point of view it's just your ego (delusion of the mind) trying to separate himself from the rest of the universe when in fact we are all one.

In the burger world, there are three schools. First, you've got the high-sodium, cheap fast food fare: McDonald's, Burger King, Carl's Jr., and so on. Though low on the culinary totem pole, they have their place. Some days, you just want to go to a drive thru and call it a night.
Next, you've got the respected institutions that know how to put out a fast but quality burger: In N' Out, Five Guys, etc. It's hard to find haters when it comes to these well-regarded establishments, though you'll definitely come across rivalries between the two.
Finally, you have the burgers with double digit prices, the so-called "gourmet" burgers you can find at gastropubs and fancy restaurants all over the county. These high class creations may burn your cash, but some of them are truly out of this world. In this best-of list, we're sticking with the classiest of burgers that meet this coveted position in the world of gourmands.
In any art, hard work and dedication show through in the final product. Jason Quinn, head of Playground, understands this perfectly. Every day, he takes whole cuts of carefully selected quality beef, cuts them by hand, and grinds the bits multiple times to produce some of the juiciest and most flavorful patties you can find in Orange County. Don't ask for well-done pieces of shoe leather at this Santa Ana establishment. The kitchen goes by a medium-rare-only rule. Good guys.
Based in Old Towne Orange, Haven Gastropub was one of the first gastropubs to open in Orange County. The ingredients on their signature burger include peppers roasted to perfection, fresh arugula, and a hearty patty of expertly cooked medium-rare beef. Haven also has an extensive selection of well-curated beers. Pair a glass of quality lager with your burger, and you'll find a haven of your own.
Burger Parlor started up as a pop-up burger joint in the Rialto Café in Fullerton. Locals took to the amazing menu so quickly that Head Chef and Owner Joseph Mahon had no choice but to start a full-fledged restaurant of his own. Today, Mahon continues putting out beautiful and original burger creations that are meant to be savored slowly, not scarfed down.
What's your favorite gourmet burger in Orange County? Let us know by posting on the McFarlin LLP Facebook page.

Callander Bay Heritage Museum & Alex Dufresne Gallery Exhibition
The Northern Coney Island
Until December 31, 2019 (Starts at 2:00 PM)
Quintuplet Drive, Dionneville, The Quintuplet Village, and Quintland all describe a 300 meter stretch of road that attracted over 3 million tourists in the 30s and 40s as they came to watch the five identical Dionne Quintuplets dance and play in an outdoor observatory. This "Coney Island of the North" rivaled Niagara Falls as the top tourist destination in Canada as thousands of people each day were counted waiting in line for these free shows. For the area, an influx of tourists meant an opportunity for business and commercialization, and in a short amount of time souvenir shops, information booths, public restrooms, and other buildings to develop.
This exhibit explores the evolution of Quintland, from a regular country road to a bustling attraction that compared to the likes of Radio City Music Hall, Mount Vernon, and Gettysburg. It is comprised of over 75 photographs, many from private collections, as well as unique artefacts that have a relation to these various buildings.
Please join us for the official opening of this exhibit on Saturday May 26th at 2pm with light refreshments and free museum admission. Donations welcome.
*Image supplied from the Callander Bay Heritage Museum and shows a crowd rushing to get a good view of the Dionne sisters on the porch of their nursery. The building in the middle is a souvenir shop that employed the two midwives who assisted int the birth.

Q: Simplifying $\sum_{k=0}^{24}\binom{100}{4k}.\binom{100}{4k+2}$
How to evaluate the following series: $$\sum_{k=0}^{24}\binom{100}{4k}\binom{100}{4k+2}$$

What I have tried : Considering expansion of $\displaystyle (1+x)^n=
\binom{n}0+ \binom n1 x + \binom n2 x^2+\cdots$
By this I can get easily the result :
$$\sum_{k=0}^{100}\binom{100}{k}\binom{100}{100-k}=\binom{200}{100}$$
Which seems to be almost similar to $\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{24}\binom{100}{4k}\binom{100}{98-4k}$.
I think what I should do next is substitute $i$ and $-i$ and add equations.
What I am not sure is which ones to add.
Any suggestion or other approaches? Much Appreciated.

A: Call the sum $S$. Using the symmetry of Pascal's triangle, $S$ equals
$$\sum_{k=0}^{24}\binom{100}{4k}\binom{100}{98-4k}.$$
Putting $j=24-k$ gives
$$S=\sum_{k=0}^{24}\binom{100}{96-4k}\binom{100}{2k+2}.$$
Therefore
$$2S=\sum_{r=0}^{49}\binom{100}{2r}\binom{100}{98-2r}.$$
This is the $X^{98}$ coefficient of $F(X)^2$ where
$$F(X)=\sum_{r=0}^{50}\binom{100}{2r}X^{2r}=\frac{(1+X)^{100}+(1-X)^{100}}{2}.$$
Then
$$F(X)^2=\frac{(1+X)^{200}+2(1-X^2)^{100}+(1-X)^{200}}4.$$
I get
$$8S=\binom{200}{98}-2\binom{100}{49}+\binom{200}{98}$$
etc.


Randi and Jeramie get married.
Home / All / Randi and Jeramie get married.
Randi and Jeramie were married February 18, 2012, at Boulder Springs in New Braunfels, Texas. The couple had an afternoon wedding at the pavilion on the hillside, with beautiful teal garland on the top of the arch with little white gerber flowers entwined within. The ceremony was an fun event with many family members and friends.
After the rustic themed wedding, all the guest went to the ballroom for some yummy appetizers. They had three beautiful cakes that were amazing. After eating dinner, cake, and the toasts, the couple danced to music from the live band.
Thanks for letting me be apart of your day! Congratulations Randi and Jeramie!


Sometimes life is just busy. We have the demands of career and family. We have bills to pay, places to go and people to see. We get so focused on carrying on that we can't see the forest for the trees.
In the training industry, it is easy to be sidetracked by the trees and miss the forest. We get requests for training, we fill them—those are the trees. What about the forest?
Have you noticed that the word "training" is not used much anymore? There is a reason for that—it represents just one step in the learning and outcomes process. Today we talk about learning – eLearning, learning portals, learning centers, Chief Learning Officers, etc. There is a big difference between training and learning just like there is a big difference between short term, individual results and long term, organizational results.
I started in the education field when providing training was a wonderful thing. At the beginning of the year we published a catalogue of training offerings. We provided classes and reported how many people attended our classes. That was enough. Everyone was happy. Unfortunately, when the training session was over, the learning typically stopped. Even more tragically, statistics prove that without further reinforcement, most learners forget most of what they learned within days. If that is the case, very little of what was taught was actually transferred to organizational results.
Today, our leaders want measurable outcomes that impact the organization—the sustainability of the forest. Long term sustainable results does involve training but should always be tied to a long term goal.
So although training is an important element in organizational impact it is only one piece. If we want to stay relevant, we have to look beyond just the learning event or trees and focus on the long-term organizational change or forest.
Rethink your purpose – Do you exist to train people or to help the organization reach goals? Sustainable organizational impact requires prolonged performance improvement outcomes verses "training" alone. As stated above, training or knowledge acquisition is a step in performance outcomes but it is not the entire answer. If we truly think of ourselves as a partner to the organization to reach goals, we will shift our focus to a longer range focus of performance outcomes or learning solutions that will impact organizational goals. This expands our efforts to include not only the training event but communication, coaching, providing informal learning tools and support, partnering with leaders to hold participants accountable, etc.
For those of you in regulatory fields, there are classes that you must offer because you are required to do so. However, unless you have a specific need, you can usually meet mandatory requirements with a much reduced offering.
In either case, whether a course is mandatory or supportive of reaching corporate goals, you need to serve the right amount of information.
What information is truly necessary for the learner to start applying concepts? When you complete a gap analysis, weight the tasks. Is this a need to know topic to get started? Is this a nice to know, or something that will only be used sporadically? If it is a sporadic or nice to know topic, consider providing the information in another format. (We will talk about this more with informal tools).
Do you really need to show a learner how to do something more than one way? This is particular relevant with training software or technical topics. Resist the temptation to show participants how to do things in multiple ways.
Can you require the participant to complete a prerequisite before coming to class? This could be done with eLearning, reading, etc. Learning done in smaller chunks is more memorable.
Remember we don't want to provide too much information at a time, or too little to have confident learners. We want to serve the amount of information that is "just right".
Extend accessibility – As we rethink our purpose, we must also rethink what constitutes a training event. If we think of training as any event in which knowledge is acquired, it broadens our array of training tools.
Classroom/eLearning: although classroom events will never be completely eliminated, they are very costly. Consider reducing classroom time by requiring a pre-requisite in the form of reading or eLearning and only present need-to-know information. Save the classroom for hands-on application wherein a facilitator adds value. Use eLearning for small amounts of information.
Informal learning tools – Applying what is learned while on the job is a critical step in performance outcomes. Since we know that learners will not remember everything from a classroom or eLearning event, we must serve the information in a just-in-time format. Today's learner wants information when they need it, where they need it. We live in an instant society where information can be found on the internet or from an app. Are you supplying information when and where learners need it? Do you have an on-line portal for learning? Do you have an app for just-in-time information assessable from phones or tablets? If not, start thinking that way.
When you go high-tech, you must go high touch – With all the accessibility options, we must remember that human element cannot completely be replaced. True performance outcomes take coaching, accountability, reinforcement. When you reduce classes and content offerings and add just-in-time learning tools, backfill your newfound time with personal support to the learning and/or their manager. Coaching is a catalyst to performance improvement.
Measure – If our goal is to impact the organization with measurable performance outcomes, we must measure to truly know if we are making a difference. When you negotiate how you can contribute to the organizational goals, be sure to ask what success will look like. Then, measure your success. If you do not measure you will not know if you are contributing to success. If you measure you will know if you reached your goal or conversely if you need to keep up the reinforcement and coaching until you do. Be sure to socialize the result to leadership so they know you are making a difference, that you are partnering with them to increase their success.
So the million dollar question: Are you focusing on the trees or the forest?

If Yahoo's Going Social, Is Demand Media Back on Its Dance List?
April 9, 2009 at 3:10 am PT
Last year, Yahoo EVP Hilary Schneider and then-Media Group head Scott Moore had a summery seaside dinner with Demand Media co-founder and CEO Richard Rosenblatt (pictured here) in Santa Monica, Calif., right around the corner from the online publishing company's HQ.
While many speculated that Yahoo (YHOO) could be doing some friendly kibitzing to get a sense of where the eclectic network of general- and special-interest sites was headed, for a possible acquisition, nothing came of it.
That's because at the time, Rosenblatt insisted that he was aiming to eventually take his company public and Yahoo was in the midst of ongoing corporate turmoil.
"There is a lot of potential here and I want to build a big company for the long-term," said Rosenblatt in an interview with BoomTown last July (see video below).
But, as my post noted: "Still, at some point when Yahoo is not in the free fall it is currently in, Demand might make a great purchase for Yahoo."
And now, a year later, as new Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz works to stop that slide, several sources close to the company tell me another look-see at Demand is likelier than ever.
That's underscored with recent indications that a major strategy will finally follow through on making Yahoo's massive but disparate service more social, especially its content offerings.
But would Bartz go as far as making a big buy now or would she be more likely to strike a massive partnership with Demand, from which Yahoo could learn a lot?
Such an acquisition could cost anywhere from $1.5 billion to–as was floated last year in better times–$3 billion. In addition, if Demand was to engage in more serious talks with Yahoo, there would likely be other suitors.
As costly as that is, some sort of link-up with Demand is an interesting idea, especially since Yahoo could use a bold and definitive move to signal social goals that play to its strengths and are not a copycat of more powerful social-networking sites now in place.
At a Morgan Stanley (MS) conference last month, Bartz said, for example, that "I do not believe we can invent the next Facebook," while noting Yahoo still needed to be more social throughout the service, especially in its content.
And, just yesterday, a Reuters article about that focus was titled: "Yahoo's Plan: Create Community from Isolated Sites."
Said the article: "If [Yahoo co-founder David] Filo and new CEO Carol Bartz have their way, the kinds of social networking features available on Facebook will become part of many Yahoo websites and allow their users to network with each other without using Facebook. The company hopes the strategy will help link its disparate properties, bringing more advertising dollars and growth."
And that's just at the heart of Demand Media, which dubs itself the "leader in social media."
Demand was founded in 2006 by Rosenblatt and Shawn Colo, who raised a giant pool of funding–$355 million–from gold-plated investors like Goldman Sachs (GS), Oak Investment Partners and even a private investment from major Yahoo investor Gordon Crawford.
Getting that kind of backing was due to Rosenblatt's entrepreneurial track record.
As founder, chairman and CEO, he sold iMALL to Excite@Home for $425 million in a 1999 stock swap.
And, perhaps most famously, as CEO of Intermix Media, Rosenblatt sold it with the company's crown jewel, MySpace, to News Corp. (NWS) for $580 million in cash.
Then, Rosenblatt started Demand, which takes user-generated content of all kinds and on all kinds of topics–especially via video–from an army of freelancers and leverages it into massive traffic that it monetizes.
Demand is also the one of the bigger suppliers of video to YouTube, which it also monetizes.
And, through the acquisition of Pluck, the company also laces social-networking tools throughout the sites, as well as for many well-known third parties.
All this has given Demand upward of 70 million unique visitors per month, at sites like eHow and GolfLink.com, with about $150 million in annual revenue.
And–drum roll please–it is reportedly profitable, although how much is not clear.
While he has long maintained a public offering was on the horizon, despite the weak economy, Rosenblatt has also been interested in the idea of how to revive major players like Yahoo and Time Warner (TWX) online unit AOL.
Both have been struggling, but still have massive traffic and brand recognition, along with large advertising businesses.
And in many ways, the energetic Rosenblatt is just the kind of product-centric and visionary exec Yahoo lacks, despite Bartz's clear ability to get the company's management ducks in order.
What could be even more interesting, said one source, would be to marry Yahoo and Demand with a lot of what is going on with the publishing of niche sites at AOL's MediaGlow content unit, in a giant publishing network.
Ironically, AOL was another acquisition target of Yahoo, in yet another deal that did not pan out last year.
Here's the interview with Rosenblatt at Demand Media HQ last year:

We are talking about the recently adopted law on amendments to the Code of Ukraine on administrative offences.
Lawyer Vadim Volodarsky told about the latest changes in legislation that give the opportunity in some cases to avoid penalties for the substantial violations of the Rules of the road.
We are talking about the recently adopted Law "On amendments to the Code of Ukraine on administrative offences and several other laws of Ukraine concerning the border security of the state" No. 5442.
The second part of article 254 shall be amended as follows: "the Protocol on administrative violation, if the design is drawn up not later than twenty-four hours after detection of the perpetrator of the offense, in two copies, one of which a receipt is given to the person, brought to administrative responsibility".
It is difficult to say how this will affect the border regime. But the consequences for drivers easy to predict. For example, is missing from the accident scene. His identity is established, but a call to the police, he does not appear (don't be a fool). If it took more than a day after establishing his identity, to make the Protocol possible.
Suppose there is an accident with disputed fault. The identity of participants is known. But to establish the culprit takes time. Again, after receiving, for example, expert opinion, which determined guilt, it took more than a day, responsible for the police appeared, is possible to make the Protocol. And there is no Protocol – there is no court order. There's no court order – the problem of indemnification to the victim.
It is difficult to say whether the interpretations of well-known lawyer legal logic, and will apply such provisions to avoid responsibility in case of violation of traffic Rules. Precedents of the use of these standards yet.


Shot shot shot shot … We all have said this, because there's no better way to celebrate in Mexico than with a good tequila!
The tequila is the pride of the state of Jalisco and, of course, of all Mexicans! Here you will find the best tequila in the world and you can't miss the experience of knowing the process and have a great tasting of this liquor.
To live this, you have to visit Tequila's route, which involves visiting several municipalities near Tequila, Jalisco and meet enigmatic places in the area: archaeological ruins, ancient haciendas, taverns with more than 500 years old, a volcano, mining towns and workshops crafts and more.
If you want to enhance this experience, I recommend riding the train that goes from Guadalajara to Tequila. Through the windows, you'll see beautiful landscapes of agave, considered cultural heritage of humanity, besides the traditional mariachi liven up the environment. A great opportunity to know the traditions, culture and history of this country.
Our national drink, the tequila, is an internationally recognized element that represents our identity, which is why this tour will be an unforgettable and delicious experience.

Home Freighter News Cessna SkyCourier completes wind tunnel testing
Cessna SkyCourier completes wind tunnel testing
Wictita, Kansas-based Textron Aviation has completed initial wind tunnel testing of its new twin-engine Cessna SkyCourier turboprop. Results from comprehensive wind tunnel tests will provide performance and aerodynamic characteristics and structural load data, further finessing the aircraft's design.
"For the initial wind tunnel testing, we use a custom, precision model with electric motors and scaled propellers calibrated to represent the thrust produced by the real aircraft," said Textron Aviation senior vice president, engineering, Brad Thress. "We're making outstanding progress in the development of this clean-sheet aircraft and are eager to continue defining the details that will allow us to start creating tools and parts."
Since Textron announced the Cessna SkyCourier in November 2017, the company has seen tremendous interest from operators looking for a modern solution in the large twin-utility space. As part of the aircraft's design development, the company is garnering feedback from its Customer Advisory Board.
"The flexibility and mission potential for the Cessna SkyCourier is attractive to a wide variety of operators," said Thress. "The feedback we're gathering from the CAB is extremely important as we develop an aircraft that is reliable, efficient and meets the diverse requirements of an array of mission profiles." The company is anticipating first flight of the Cessna SkyCourier in 2019 with entry into service in 2020.
The Cessna SkyCourier is a twin-engine, high-wing, large utility turboprop that will offer a combination of high performance and low operating costs for air freight and special missin operators. The freighter variant will feature a large cargo door and a flat floor cabin that is sized to handle up to three LD3 shipping containers with 6,000 pounds of maximum payload capability.
The aircraft will also afford a maximum cruise speed of up to 200 ktas and a 900 nautical-mile maximum range. The aircraft will be powered by two wing-mounted Pratt & Whitney PT6A-65SC turboprop engines, and operated with Garmin G1000 NXi avionics.

HMV's Doug Putman on opening new stores
by Andre Paine
July 7th 2020 at 7:02AM
HMV's revival under new owner Doug Putman has taken a hit from the Covid-19 pandemic.
But with the entertainment chain now trading on the High Street again after the easing of lockdown measures, Putman is ready to look at new opportunities.
Last year he launched the HMV Vault store in Birmingham, the biggest music and entertainment store in Europe.
However, the famous retail brand is still lacking a London flagship as it approaches its 100th anniversary in 2021. The historic HMV Oxford Street branch was shuttered last year, because of the high rents and rates.
"Birmingham has been great," said Putman. "It was definitely the best store we opened up, it's doing phenomenally well for us. We're always talking about more London stores because we know we're really under-indexed in London.
"The problem is the [business] rates are just crazy. I know there's a [rates] holiday until April 2021, but what happens after that? So we're very cautious. We'd love to have a flagship in London and we'd loved to have a few more smaller shops throughout London. I think we're going to look at those, and if we can get the right kind of deal you will see us open more of those stores."
However, Putman suggested that any new stores in the capital may have a different product mix.
"Those stores may be a little bit different than a normal HMV," he said. "The great thing about HMV is, if you talk to a music customer they believe we're a music store; if you talk to a visual DVD Blu-ray customer they believe that we are a movie store; and if you talk to our pop culture customers, they believe that's what we are. So it's really interesting that the store, depending on who you are and how you view it, is really three things. I've never really seen anything like that, usually most people look at a store and they believe it is one thing. And that gives me a lot of hope with HMV that we can pivot into many directions, which feels really good to me."
It's a unique time where suppliers are very aggressive on that pop culture side to do business with HMV
Doug Putman
In his recent Music Week interview, Putman spoke about the need for the industry and suppliers to support the chain. While physical music sales are now back up above 20% of the overall market, CD sales have seen a sharp downturn during the pandemic because of store closures and a lighter release schedule.
Putman has expressed his belief that the format has a future.
But he also acknowledged that HMV could expand its pop culture, apparel and merchandise business. Putman's Canadian chain Sunrise Records is active in this area, while his family business is in the toy, games and gift sector.
Putman is even considering open a separate retail brand – previous working title of Cherrybomb – to capitalise on pop culture sales.
"It's a unique time where suppliers are very aggressive on that pop culture side to do business with HMV, and also to grow their business," he told Music Week. "So I think we should harness that and look at that. We probably do need more apparel and more of those things.
"We're still looking at that separate store concept as well. I think right now is a great time that you can really partner with pop culture suppliers, they need more outlets. It's a time when landlords definitely need some help in getting stores leased. It may be the right time this Christmas to have that secondary shop open up that's not HMV, but is the pop culture side of that business. If the landlords are on board and suppliers are going to really support you, then it's up to us to deliver on that. So there are definitely opportunities out there for us."
