Most families begin our admission process by scheduling a time to meet with an Admissions Advisor. During your visit, we can tour the campus, discuss opportunities at Traders Point for your student, and answer any questions you may have.
Many families with children entering grades 5-12 also choose to schedule a Shadow Day for their student in which they can experience a typical school day as a TPCS student.
If you have already visited with us or have decided to apply, you may begin our convenient online application process at any time.
How many students do you have at Traders Point Christian Schools?
We have 659 students enrolled from Early Childhood through High School for the 2018-2019 school year.
Since we evaluate the whole student when reviewing an application for admission, it is difficult to place an absolute minimum requirement for admission. We take into consideration many parts of the application when determining if the applicant is a good fit for Traders Point Christian Schools. Grades, ISTEP+/standardized test scores, personal conduct, attendance, and a desire to attend TPCS are all important factors.
In addition,Christian values and commitment are very important to us. TPCS differs from many Christian schools in that we were founded by Traders Point Christian Church with an evangelical intent, looking for opportunities to share Christ with families who may not attend church or know Him. Therefore, some of the families we admit may not currently have a profession of faith in Christ, though they fully agree to their child learning about Christ and being open to the possibility of His lordship in their life. We also take the family's interview with the principal into consideration.
Below are our preferred academic guidelines. In our experience, students meeting these standards have the best chance for success at Traders Point. However, since we evaluate the whole student, we are pleased to consider applicants who may not currently meet the standards noted but may still be a good fit for Traders Point.
Early Childhood - We review any medical or developmental concerns to make sure we can appropriately support the child and family in their continued growth or health needs. Children entering the Threes program or older should be potty trained or be working toward that goal.
Grades K - 8 - Children should be testing in the 60th percentile or above on standardized testing in math or reading.
High School - Students should be testing in the 60th percentile or above on standardized testing in math or reading; have passed any Indiana End-of-Course assessments (ECA) they have taken; have a cumulative minimum GPA of 2.3.
How can I visit Traders Point Christian Schools?
Families may schedule a tour with an Admissions Advisor or attend an Open House. For more information about visiting us, click here.
Anyone may apply for financial aid. However, financial aid awards are need-based and not guaranteed.
Click here to submit a financial aid application for 2019-20. Please note that you will need your 2018 Federal tax return to complete your application. Allow two weeks from the day your application is completed and submitted, including uploading all required documentation, for FACTS to verify your application. Once your application has been verified by FACTS, your financial aid package should be ready for your review within one week.
Does TPCS accept vouchers, and how do I apply to receive one?
Yes, TPCS is approved by the State of Indiana to accept voucher funds for student tuition. Once a family has applied for financial aid through FACTS Grant and Aid Management, we will determine based on the application information if you qualify to receive voucher funds. This determination is made per student, not per family. If you are eligible to receive a voucher, we are required to obtain your signed acceptance and to apply on your behalf with the state for the voucher. The expected voucher amount as determined by the state will be deducted from each student's tuition total for the school year. The final voucher application date for the 2019-2020 school year is September 1, 2019, so families must have completed the financial aid application and award process in time for us to submit their voucher application(s) before that date.
For more information about the Indiana School Choice Scholarship (voucher) program, visit the Department of Education website.
Does Traders Point have scholarships available?
TPCS is no longer offering strictly merit-based scholarships. If you require need-based financial assistance, please submit a financial aid application.
Need is determined by a third-party company (FACTS Grant & Aid Management). FACTS gathers necessary information via the online financial aid application and the parents' federal tax return documents.
What will the family's contribution be?
There are many factors affecting financial aid awards. The most significant factors are family income and assets. However, other considerations include mortgages, debt, number of siblings, siblings in the school, special circumstances, and single income providers.
Am I able to apply for financial aid in later years?
Financial aid is awarded for the upcoming school year only. Families are required to re-apply each year. Receiving aid in one year does NOT guarantee aid in any subsequent year, or at the same level, or at the same amount for each sibling if multiple children are enrolled. Our available resources for aid are limited. Since family circumstances and income may change from year to year, we require parents to apply annually.
Does our family have to repay the aid?
No. The grant is not a loan. However, if the student or their parents become blessed financially in the future, we would ask them to remember the "pay it forward" concept and contribute back to Traders Point Christian Schools to help other students and families that have a need.
All details contained within the application for financial aid are held in confidence.

St. Louis Cathedral aka Cathedral-Basilica of Saint Louis King of France and the Herriman Family
The first historical record of George Herriman Sr. — the cartoonist George Herriman's grandfather — is the New Orleans Archdiocese's confirmation records for St. Louis Cathedral on March 1, 1836. Among those confirmed that day was a young "George Herimand," who was brought to the Cathedral with his half-sister, Louise Chessé, for the sacrament. Performing the sacrament was Antoine Blanc, who in 1850 would become the first archbishop of New Orleans Archdiocese.
Among the most recognizable buildings in New Orleans, the current St. Louis Cathedral sits on a site that was designated for a place of worship shortly after the founding of New Orleans. An early church was destroyed (along with much of the French Quarter) in a 1788 fire. Herriman was confirmed in the third church on this site, which in 1850 was rebuilt into the current cathedral.
More than the outer structure of St. Louis Cathedral would change over the years. At the time of Herriman's confirmation, the congregation was racially integrated, to the surprise of many visitors. "Never had I seen such a mixture of conditions and colors … white children and black, with every shade between, knelt side by side," reported one visitor, as quoted in James B. Bennett's book Religion and the Rise of Jim Crow in New Orleans. Just as the structure of the church changed, so too did the fortunes of African Americans within its walls. By the end of the century, black Catholics were required to sit on newly installed boards against the cathedral's back and side walls.
George Herriman Sr. remained a practicing Catholic throughout his life, and following his death in 1907 was entombed in St. Louis Cemetery No. 3 on Esplanade Avenue.

Q: UITableViewController and NavigationController I'm having a problem pushing a UITableViewController onto a NavigationController. With the following code:
ProblemEditController *problemEditController = [[[ProblemEditController alloc] initWithNibName:@"ProblemEditController" bundle:nil] retain];
problemEditController.problem = [[Problem alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:problemEditController animated:YES];
[problemEditController release];

The navigation controller works as expected, however, the table view is not showing. numberOfSectionsInTableView is being called on my UITableViewController, but numberOfRowsInSection and cellForRowAtIndexPath aren't being called, and the view shows up blank.
Is there something obvious I am missing?
EDIT
I've changed something in the nib file (stupidly, can't remember what), and I'm seeing numberOfRowsInSection being called now.

A: OK, I've found out what I was doing wrong. I had added a TableViewController to my nib rather than just added a table view.
I'd basically messed up the connection to view in IB. For future reference, this is what a custom UITableViewController should look like in IB:
alt text http://pix.im/files/134/scaled.jpg?1239453713
Now I feel like a cretin.

A: Try now using retain or release on **problemEditController*.
This piece of code works fine for me:
formationsController = [[FormationsController alloc] initWithNibName:@"Formations" bundle:nil];
[navigationController pushViewController:formationsController animated:YES];

VSH Fittings was established in 1931 and is part of the Aalberts Industries Group. VSH is a leading Dutch manufacturer of piping systems and fittings. The solutions can be found in residential and commercial construction, fire safety, shipbuilding, and industry. With the widest range of products on the market, VSH offers real choice.
At VSH, ease of installation, security, and top quality come first. VSH creates full product ranges in high-quality production processes that meet the highest criteria. Their products all have major national and international quality and certification labels. VSH wants to optimally connect with the daily workflow in everything they do. VSH wants to constantly innovate and to offer the right solutions time and time again.
Thanks to the Content LAB, we can now better manage, maintain, and keep up to date our product information, and Revit modellers are more likely to select our products rather than those of our competitors. It's the best alternative to expensive content websites and product libraries.
Content LAB is quick and easy to use at just a touch of a button.
There is a significantly greater chance that our products will be selected for drafting the model.
Models are generated automatically from the (ETIM) information supplied by VSH.
Only a few parameters need to be adjusted, and the Content LAB controls the rest.
VSH Fittings, just like other parties in the building chain, work with BIM. In this case, installers and installation consultants want to use the products from VSH Fittings in their BIM model. Therefore, up-to-date Revit families of the product range are essential.
This is not so simple in practice. Thanks to developments such as the Uniform Objects Library (UNETO-VNI) and the Cadac Group's Content LAB, VSH Fitting now have full control over their available product information.
In accordance with the BIM concept, information is added to the BIM model ever earlier in the design process. 'To connect to this development and to support modellers, we find it important to make our product information or 2D and 3D models available,' says Caspar van Zoelen, Head of Product Marketing at VSH Fittings.
In the past, the development department of VSH Fittings made CAD files of its products and published them on their website. 'This required a lot of internal resources. Especially when the demand for 2D and 3D models increased later. While searching for a solution for managing and controlling our product information, we quickly arrived at ETIM: the standard parts classification for the installation sector.
The Uniform Objects Library (UOB) initiative was born out of the desire of UNETO-VNI, the association of installers. The Uniform Objects library was developed to offer product content, and to take product libraries away from the software houses and to place them back with the manufacturers, so they can be responsible for both the physical and the virtual product. The CAD models are not drawn for this, but the products are provided with the appropriate parameters so that smart software can generate a platform-independent model by itself.
Because VSH Fittings has enriched its product information with the right (ETIM) parameters and connects with the UOB, it was relatively easy for the Content LAB to begin using it. 'With the Content LAB (Library Access Button), we can offer our customers a button in Revit that gives modellers instant access to our current product models which they can then place directly into the Revit model,' says Caspar.
The Content LAB is very well received in practice. 'The button works on any Revit version (no vendor lock-in), products are easy to exchange in the model, it is quick to use (at the touch of a button) and it offers clear insight into the product and the product properties. And perhaps most importantly: the user is certain to always have the latest information.
The button is not only extremely useful for modellers, but it also offers VSH many advantages. 'There is a significantly greater chance that our products will be selected for drafting the model. In practice, we see that modellers opt for a product at the moment they begin to draw. In addition, we lost no time to drawing, because these models are generated from the information supplied by us (ETIM). And changing product data is now much simpler. Only a few parameters need to be adjusted, and the Content LAB controls the rest.
Would you like to know what our Content LAB can do for your organization?

Toronto Maple Leafs Salary Cap Struggle
September 25, 2013 by Nathan Kanter
With the season now less than a week away, and the Leafs basically at the cap ceiling (and without Franson) I thought it'd be a good time to explore some of the options that Nonis has, or to simply attempt to make things easier for all you readers out there who are confused by the dollars and cents of it all. Hopefully by the end of it, you'll have a clearer idea of the tools at the disposal of Maple Leafs upper management.
Less than $1 Million in Cap Space You Say?
Well, yes, the Maple Leafs currently have only $995,833 of free cap space at the moment, according to capgeek.com. That is with the current "main" roster of 14 forwards, 7 'D' and two goaltenders. I say "main roster" because obviously in the coming week this roster may be tweaked. Multiple players are still at training camp and some of them have a legitimate shot at making the team. Among those not on the main roster with a shot are defensemen Morgan Rielly and T.J. Brennan, as well as forwards Carter Ashton, David Broll and others. The current roster is at 31 players.
If any of these players are to make the team, then players on the main roster will have to be sent down. The problem however is that all of them (except for Jake Gardiner, who let's face it, won't be sent down) are on one-way contracts. What this means is that if Nonis decides to demote them, any other NHL team will have an opportunity to claim them. So there is always a gamble. If Colborne for example is demoted, will someone claim the 6-foot-5 center? It's quite possible someone would and then we lose him for nothing.
The Franson Holdout: What Can Be Done?
Franson is still holding out, and Leafs have relatively no cap room (Tom Szczerbowski-US PRESSWIRE)
Of course all of this is more difficult because of Cody Franson's holdout. He will not sign for less than $1 million and if he would then this would hardly even be an issue at all. But Franson wants somewhere between $3 and $4 million on a one-year deal (the Leafs want a two-year deal). Nonis isn't budging because he doesn't have to; they will be under the cap and roster compatible to start the season without Franson (who, by the way, elected NOT to go to arbitration, which right now isn't looking so good). So Nonis feels comfortable without Franson. But just in case some of you don't (and I certainly don't), I've decided to compile a chart that outlines the options the Leafs GM has IF he wants to create more cap sapce. Obviously, as mentioned earlier, he could do nothing and not worry about trying to squeeze Franson in. As the season wears on though, that could become problematic.
[table id=130 /]
As the chart shows, every player would have to clear waivers if sent down, because they are all on one-way contracts. The more important thing the chart shows is how much cap space each demotion would create.
Paul Ranger hasn't played in the NHL since 2009-10 but appears set for top-4 minutes. This makes him an unlikely candidate for demotion (Marc DesRosiers-USA TODAY Sports)
Liles and Ranger would each create almost $1 million in space but they are both the toughest demotions. Ranger is playing very well and appears he will start the season in the top-4. Liles makes so much money it would just be a pity to have to send him down and still pay him almost $3 million. The funny thing however is Liles being paid so much (and for 3 more seasons) is likely the very same reason that no other team will claim him.
Colborne I do not believe will get sent down because 6-foot-5 centers who are 23 and still have upside don't come along very often. And he's cheap.
To me, this makes Smith and Holzer fairly obvious demotions, which would together clear up an additional $1,337,500. Then Toronto would have a total of just over $2.3 Million in cap space.
More Cap Space But Not Enough Players
If Clarkson & Kessel suspended & Orr, McLaren & Bolland injured, #Leafs will be left with this opening day: 9F, 7D, 2G & $995k in cap space.
— CapGeek (@capgeek) September 24, 2013
With the Clarkson suspension it looks concerning doesn't it? But in reality, it isn't as bad as it seems. First, Kessel was not suspended for any regular season time (that tweet came before his hearing). Second, Randy Carlyle was asked if Bolland would be ready for October 1st and his response was "for sure." Without demoting Smith and Holzer as mentioned above, that gets the roster to 20 (11 F, 7 D, 2 G). Hopefully, McLaren and Orr are ready for opening night. If not, a youngster will fill the void for the time being, which would pretty much guarantee no Franson for the early part of the season.
Forecasting Toronto's Roster Moves
With all the cap mayhem, I decided I'd have a little fun and guess what might happen.
1) Holzer gets cut and sent down. Cap Space now at $1.78 Million. Roster now at 11,6,2
2) Liles gets cut and nobody claims him, so he clears waivers and is sent down. Cap Space now at $2.708 Million. Roster now at 11,5,2
3) Morgan Rielly makes the team and his cap hit of $925,000 is added to the team salary. Cap Space now at $1.814 Million (although Rielly's cap hit is technically $1.744 Million, only the base salary above would count and his bonuses can be counted against the cap next season instead). More importantly, the Leafs now can ice six 'D'. Roster now at 11,6,2
4) Carter Ashton makes the team and his cap hit of $840,000 is added to the team salary. Cap Space now at $974,167. (Ashton is also on a two-way deal, so his bonus of $200,000 can also be paid next season). Roster now at 12,6,2
4) Frazer McLaren and Colton Orr return from injury, allowing Nonis to send down Trevor Smith and Carter Ashton. Ashton won't have to clear waivers, but Smith will. Cap Space now at $2.364 Million. Roster still at 12,6,2
5) A few games into the season, Cody Franson agrees to terms on a one-year contract, somewhere in the neighbourhood of $2 Million and change. He agrees because he has no choice if he wants to play. It's a compromise because Nonis wants a two-year deal but if Franson accepts less salary than it can work. Cap space now at next to nothing. Roster at 12,7,2
6) Before Rielly plays his 10th game, he gets sent down to the WHL to free up more room and because there are already six defenseman now with Franson. This will happen at the nine game mark or before because it prevents Toronto from burning a year of Rielly's contract. Remeber, Rielly is still too young for the AHL (If Rielly is playing SO well that this seems absurd, then I guess it won't happen.) Cap Space now back to around $2 Million. This is enough to be somewhat flexible at the trade deadline.
I hope part of this cleared up the Toronto Maple Leafs options in terms of what they can or can't do before the season starts and how they might be able to sign Franson. If you're still confused then post a comment, or send me a tweet because that would mean I haven't done my job correctly!

Is it hadley specific? Mine is missing and only seem to come as a service pack.
Is it the one that slides over the drive-side axle cap, that has holes in it and comes out with a pin spanner? If so I'd say it's definitely hadley specific. It also acts as a bearing retainer / preload adjuster, if we're talking about the same part.
www.balleracing.com might be able to help and they ship overseas, if you can't find the part locally.

Get a $50 Gift Certificate to Learn to Conduct a Phishing Security Audit! (Virtual CPE)
When: Feb 21, 2022 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM (MT)
Associated with Denver - Centennial Chapter
Please join us for a two-hour CPE event as we welcome the City and County of Denver Auditor's Office to talk about a simulated phishing campaign to test employee behavior.
In 2020, the Denver Auditor's office developed simulated phishing emails to test employee's behavior related to email phishing risks. To identify causes of the risks, they designed a randomized control trial to deploy two different simulated phishing emails through a program called Lucy. Their analysis of the results combined with a detailed analysis of the city's information security training program led to specific recommendations for the city to reduce the observed risks and improve the city's email security. This presentation reviews will provide details on the steps to develop phishing email templates, configure systems to allow an external test, conduct a randomized control trial, and analyze the results to identify cause and effect related employee cyber security behaviors.
Learn how to develop a phishing campaign to test employee email behaviors. We focus on how to create phishing emails, deploy them without compromising security, and analyze the results to gain insights to reduce risk.

Reception: Friday, October 4, 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Minneapolis, MN—The Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the Jerome Foundation are pleased to present an exhibition of new work by recipients of the 2012/13 Jerome Foundation Fellowships for Emerging Artists: Susannah Bielak, Amanda Hankerson, Michael Hoyt, Melissa Loop, and Lauren Roche.
The exhibition opens in MCAD Gallery on Friday, October 4 and closes Sunday, November 10. The artist reception will be Friday, October 4, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. On Wednesday, October 9 at 6:30 p.m. Jay Gabler, arts editor for the Twin Cities Daily Planet and essayist for the catalog that accompanies the exhibition, will moderate a roundtable discussion with the artists.
Susannah Bielak's Vientos is a campaign of projects using the wind as a metaphor for resilience, the mechanics of failure, and rendering the ineffable. Expanding upon a prior investigation of the rapport between domestic life and natural disaster, Vientos will intercut performative actions staged with dancers and others (e.g., rodeo cowboys, wind engineers) on frozen lakes and in industrial non-spaces, wind tunnels, photo studios, and a gigantic research center. These actions employ handmade props designed for resistance and failure, such as drawings on paper—created with the artist's own breath and referencing wind-torn concrete structures—that serve both as armor for fighting wind devices and as sculptural "ventifacts" that accompany the videos in which they are featured.
Amanda Hankerson's portrait project explores connections among the small number of living people (a few thousand) who share her last name. Using photography and social media, Hankerson examines the notion of family with Americans who have vastly different histories in this once slave-holding nation, spanning 260 years.
Michael Hoyt will be exhibiting a series of hand-painted portraits alongside a mobile drawing station called One Another that engages strangers in a chance art exchange at parks, basketball courts, and soccer fields. Designed to focus time and space through the intimate experience of sitting for a portrait, the process creates a unique opportunity for connection between two individuals (the artist and the sitter).
Melissa Loop will be presenting a large-scale landscape painting based on a valley she visited on the Marquesan island on Nuku Hiva. Employing photographs and memory, she is creating a non-existent view in an impossible space. The painting invokes the grandeur of historical landscape painting while exploring the fragmented and nostalgic ideas of place. The piece is part of a larger project that confronts the fantasy and reality of the exotic and the ways in which tourism and cultural stereotypes shape cultural preservation and identity.
Lauren Roche has been working on a series of drawn and painted portraits of women. Though similar in scale and subject—the women are paired with their pets or demons—the portraits uniquely communicate the individual sitter's hidden mannerisms and vulnerabilities. Using varnish, acrylic, and sometimes bleach to sculpt a drawing, Roche chooses materials whose immediacy and rawness add to the forcefulness of each individual piece.
These Jerome fellows were selected out of a field of 245 applicants by a panel of three arts professionals. The jurors were Miranda Lash, curator of modern and contemporary art at the New Orleans Museum of Art, Shirley Tse, artist and professor at California Institute of Arts, and Jill Ewald, director of the Flaten Art Museum at St. Olaf College.
In addition to receiving $10,000 each, over this past year the fellows had the opportunity to host studio visits with local and national art critics and curators. Jay Gabler, arts editor of the Twin Cities Daily Planet, was selected as the local guest critic who has also written essays about each of the fellows. In October Toby Kamps, curator at the Menil Collection in Houston will meet with all of the fellows. Other visiting critics include Naomi Beckwith, Clara Kim, Christina Schmid, and Marcus Young.
Since 1981 the Jerome Foundation has generously funded these fellowships for emerging artists, which are designed to identify and support outstanding artists in the state of Minnesota at the early stages of their professional careers. Over the past 30 years over 150 artists have benefited from this fellowship program. The fellowship program is administered by the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.
The Jerome Foundation, created by artist and philanthropist Jerome Hill (1905–1972), seeks to contribute to a dynamic and evolving culture by supporting the creation, development, and production of new works by emerging artists. The Foundation makes grants to not-for-profit organizations and individual artists living in the state of Minnesota and the five boroughs of New York City.

A rushing defensive player who lowers his head and buries his helmet into the body of a defenseless quarterback will be called for a personal foul, NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino explained in his Dec. 19 video for the media.
Blandino provided three examples of quarterback hits to demonstrate the difference between legal and illegal hits. Under the rules, a defender cannot use the crown or forehead part of the helmet to make forcible contact with a passer judged to be in a defenseless position.
He also reviewed plays from the Washington-New York Giants, Green Bay-Buffalo, Miami-New England and New York Jets-Tennessee games on Dec. 14.

ABB wins marine orders worth $30 million
Reliable, energy-efficient propulsion and on-board power systems to maximize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions of offshore supply vessels. Zurich, Switzerland, Jan. 12, 2009 – ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, has won orders worth $30 million for electric propulsion, power generation and power distribution systems that maximize the fuel efficiency of offshore supply vessels to be built in China.
ABB will provide an integrated electric propulsion solution for each of the vessels. The equipment, including generators, switchgear, transformers, drives and motors, will be delivered to the Fujian Mawei Shipyard on the southeast coast in 2010 and 2011. Offshore supply vessels deliver supplies, ranging from drill pipe to drinking water, to drilling rigs and platforms at sea.
Zurich, Switzerland, Jan. 12, 2009 – ABB, the leading power and automation technology group, has won orders worth $30 million for electric propulsion, power generation and power distribution systems that maximize the fuel efficiency of offshore supply vessels to be built in China.
"ABB provides leading-edge technology and comprehensive services to the marine industry, helping customers to optimize the performance of their vessels and reduce their environmental impact," said Veli-Matti Reinikkala, head of ABB's Process Automation division. "Our energy-efficient solutions are complemented by low-risk project execution and an extensive service network."
Electric propulsion systems equipped with variable speed drives consume significantly less compared with their conventional diesel-mechanical counterparts, and their exhaust emissions are significantly lower. They also allow more flexible use of space on board.
The variable speed drives allow the speed of the ship's propeller and associated machinery to be controlled precisely. This means that the equipment is subject to less stress, and maintenance costs are lower. The electric motors themselves are highly reliable and virtually maintenance-free.
China is one of the world's largest and fastest growing markets for shipping and shipbuilding. ABB 's presence in this market has contributed to a significant growth in market share and business volume.
ABB (www.abb.com) is a leader in power and automation technologies that enable utility and industry customers to improve their performance while lowering environmental impact. The ABB Group of companies operates in around 100 countries and employs about 120,000 people.

StarCare Specialty Health System's community baby shower gave some Lubbock parents gifts of baby care essentials, information about resources, Valentines themed treats and, most importantly, support.
The event last Thursday aimed to raise awareness about the Lubbock organization's Postpartum Intervention Project and Parenting Awareness & Drug Risk Education (PADRE) program to adult and adolescent women at risk for or with substance use problems.
Marle Antu, behavioral health division director for StarCare, said this baby shower was important to get the information about the services StarCare provides to people.
Antu said the purpose of the event was to have a comfortable atmosphere where people can be linked with their appropriate Medicaid provider.
Kristina Brown, director of substance use and outreach programs at StarCare, said the program provides supplies for young mothers like diapers, wipes and car seats as incentives for these people to participate in the program. The programs themselves have been around for a long time, but are more important now than ever.
Brown said the state provides StarCare with funds to provide education for these expectant parents, or postpartum parents up to 18 months. The program aims to connect mothers with community resources and provide them with case management to help them be successful.
"(We are) making sure they are being stable in all areas of their life so they can provide a healthy environment for their children," Brown said.
With the baby showers, StarCare wanted to reach out to teenagers. Brown said teens are a harder population to reach, so events like this are helpful.
Sometimes, these people are struggling in silence, Antu said. It is important that they know there is help out there for them.
Brown said it is important for people to know there is a support system in place in Lubbock that can help these people.
"It's important to show them that there is a supportive community within Lubbock that is willing to help them and help guide them and show them where they can get the assistance that they need," Brown said.

Tom DeLonge just hinted there have been talks about a Blink-182 reunion
This could be something big!
Back on August 1st, Blink-182 celebrated 25 years since its members got together and formed a band. Since their formation, the band have had brief breakup and a couple of lineup reshuffles, but most notably, 2015 saw founding guitarist Tom DeLonge announce his departure from the band. Fans have been devastated ever since, but a recent comment from DeLonge seems to indicate there could be a resolution in the works.
In early 2015, Tom DeLonge shook things up in the Blink-182 camp by announcing his immediate departure from the legendary punk band. What followed was mass confusion as DeLonge then said he hadn't left the group, before band members disparaged the backhanded way that he left the group.
Since then, DeLonge has embarked on a (surprisingly) successful career as a UFO researcher and film maker, and has stated on numerous occasions that since he still "owns" the band and its trademarks, he could rejoin Blink-182 at any time he may choose.
While no movement had been made yet in regards to a Blink-182 reunion, Tom had promised us new music from side project Angels & Airwaves, and even hinted that a collaboration with Australia's Amy Shark could be on the way. Needless to say, it's not like DeLonge needs Blink-182 to remain busy.
However, a post on DeLonge's Instagram account now has fans talking, thanks to the sly way that he seemed to indicate there has been discussion of a reunion for Blink-182.
"So Travis [Barker, Blink-182 drummer] calls me and asks me to do an interview… next thing I know all these cameras have invaded my office," Tom posted to Instagram. "I have a feeling he just wanted some super hi-res footage of my body."
However, it was the final line that got fans talking: "And yes Blinkies, we also talked a bit about other stuff."
While the comments section on the Instagram post are currently filled with various messages written in all-caps that convey the excitement that DeLonge has caused, we're still not 100% certain if this indeed a reunion post. Of course, despite the message seeming to relate to Blink-182 fans by use of the word "blinkies", there is of course every chance that this is just a follow-up to recent news that Travis Barker and Tom DeLonge would like to reunite Box Car Racer once again.
Whatever the case is, we're keen as anything to see a Blink-182 reunion featuring the 'classic' lineup of the band. However, considering how well-received Tom's replacement, Alkaline Trio's Matt Skiba, has been, we wouldn't complain if the band decide to continue as a four-piece either.
Check out Blink-182's most recent single, 'Parking Lot':

Hi Everyone, it's time for another challenge over at the Fab 'n' Funky Challenge Blog. We are up to challenge # 348 and as it is the last challenge for the month our theme is..
For my card I chose this great santa image - Surfin' Santa. Being from Australia, Christmas falls in Summer, so Christmas day on the beach is very popular so this image seemed perfect for an Aussie Christmas card.
Fabulous card!! The image is cute and colored beautifully.


What are BAU or Business As Usual Strategies and how do they Work?
Business as Usual or BAU strategies and action plans are meant to keep vital organizational functions and processes up and running even in times of extreme events that disrupt the other functions.
This is especially the case when such functions and processes are mission critical meaning that without them, the organizations would not be able to fulfill their mandate. Indeed, whichever sector one looks at, whether it is businesses in the private sector, institutions in the governmental sector, or even individuals and startups as well as SMEs or Small and Medium Enterprises, they all need a viable and workable BAU plan in case things beyond their control such as external extreme events and even, within their control go down due to intentional or unintentional acts.
For example, BPOs or Business Processing Organizations need to keep their Customer Service lines and the Financial Processing Units running even when extreme events such as Earthquakes, Floods, Terrorist Attacks, or Civil Disturbances take place.
Similarly, the governmental departments tasked with maintaining public law and order, public utilities, and the administration (whether civic or regional) all have to have a BAU plan in case there are disruptions to the normal way of life.
When Should a BAU Plan be activated?
Typically, a BAU plan would have to be activated immediately in case of such extreme events and in this context, it is worth noting that the fallback plans and options to continue business operations have to be actualized within an hour or so of the first intimation of the extreme event.
While some firms and governmental agencies can take up to a day or less to activate such plans, the key decision makers are vested with the authority to activate such plans as and when reliable and accurate information is available with them. Indeed, the key phrases here are reliable and accurate information since in these days of Fake News and Post Truth, more often than not, some of the news about extreme events are often found to be false or at best misleading after some time.
This is the reason why many leading firms subscribe to Global Security and Consulting Firms who often send out Security Alerts and timely and Relevant Information about Extreme Events to their clients. Even individuals would be well advised to take help of credible firms to alert them of impending and happening extreme events in real time so as to have relevant information with them.
The reason we are stressing on the need to have accurate and timely information is that corporates worldwide now operate in environments where news travels at the speed of light thanks to the multiple channels of news media including the web, mobile, television, and the very real aspect of WhatsApp groups and Facebook and Twitter updates.
Indeed, the proliferation and profusion of such sources of information mean that corporates have to access to the actual ground realities instead of relying on untrustworthy sources of information.
This is where the Risk Mitigation Department and the Risk Management Units of corporates come into play as all of them usually have their own methods of assessing and reacting to such extreme events.
Indeed, in times when even governments often fail to assess the situations arising out of extreme events, some corporations with the necessary resources seem to be abreast of the fallout from extreme events more than the former.
While the debate about whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is out of the scope of the present article, what we wish to emphasize is that it is better for any entity, private or public to have good risk assessment and mitigation strategies in place.
Having said that, it is also the case that despite having all the resources at their disposal, some corporates are found wanting when extreme events happen. For instance, the recent shooting at the YouTube office in the Bay Area of the Silicon Valley is proof of the fact that early warnings were ignored and potential signs of such an event were not taken seriously.
Thus, the fact remains that the Risk and Corporate Security Functions need to get their act together and ensure that they are on top of things to both prevent and respond to extreme events.
This is where some leading corporates insist on BAU plans that are activated in real time as they feel that any time spent in risk assessment as the extreme event is unfolding would only lead to the impact from such events becoming more intense.
Hence, it is our view that key personnel in the organizations be entrusted with the responsibility to activate BAU plans based on the available information. Further, there must be backup personnel for such decision makers as well to ensure that disruptions are minimized.
Lastly, in the present times, the impact of any events, minor or extreme, is usually amplified by the media and the very human responses of the stakeholders to jump to conclusions and rush to judgments about the events.
Thus, sometimes, even minor events can seem to be extreme and this is the reason we want to emphasize the fact that it is better for the decision makers to be stable and not panic when the BAU plans are activated.
To conclude, while the risk of extreme events is always a possibility, more often than not, it is the way in which we respond that can make the difference to the actual impact.

Q: How do I install an older version of Rails with rbenv? Why is the rails command missing after installed version 5.2.3? I installed rbenv, and then ruby version 2.6.1.
I cloned my rails app from github, installed the bundler gem, ran bundle and watched it install all of the gems from my Gemfile.
Now comes time to run the app with the rails command. I go to install rails with gem install rails -v 5.2.3, the version my app uses in its Gemfile.
When I run which rails there is no output, and running rails at the prompt says command not found.
This is the output from running gem install rails -v 5.2.3. I thought there would be more things installed...
ubuntu@ip-172-26-13-159:~/lms-rails$ gem install rails -v 5.2.3
Successfully installed rails-5.2.3
Parsing documentation for rails-5.2.3
Installing ri documentation for rails-5.2.3
Done installing documentation for rails after 0 seconds
1 gem installed

Why is the rails command missing? Did I forget to add something to my path?
PATH: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/ubuntu/.rbenv/bin:/home/ubuntu/.rbenv/shims

A: I ended up using the bundle install --binstubs suggestion, that seems to have fixed the issue.

A: Run rbenv versions  command, this  will lists all Ruby versions known to rbenv, and shows an asterisk next to the currently active version.
Then swicth to version desired with rbenv global or rbenv local and restart the terminal, then install the desired gems, anything should be fine.


ABA urged federal regulators to remedy a provision in the Basel III capital standards that disadvantages the 2,000 community banks organized as Subchapter S corporations.
ABA urged the regulators to allow Sub S banks to make distributions equal to the taxes due on the bank's undistributed income, thus eliminating the disadvantage. It also posted a sample letter to help Sub S bankers write to the agencies themselves seeking action.

We wish her a speedy recovery. For that reason, we have needed to postpone our May concert. A date in June will be scheduled shortly.
As ever, the CAB has been delivering invaluable advise to many attendees and we are grateful for their continued presence at The Mix.
Why Do You Come To The Mix?
We are pleased to see that the social aspects (meeting, talking, change of routine) all score very highly.

Then, One Returns to School to Become the Teacher
In 1999, Joe Monzo, then chief financial officer for Ewing Township, NJ, had more than 20 years experience in the public sector. Looking for an opportunity to advance his career, he considered pursuing a master's degree — a suggestion made by the mayor of Ewing Township at that time.
"I chose the Rutgers Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA) program because of the name and the convenient location in Mercer County," says Monzo. He started the program a year later and graduated with his EMPA degree in 2001.

New State-of-the-Art Hands-On Radon Training Facility Built This Summer at Rutgers
For over 25 years, the Eastern Regional Radon Training Center (ERRTC) at Rutgers University has been providing training in radon measurement and mitigation to professionals throughout the country. To improve the learning experience for students, the ERRTC opened a brand-new, state-of-the-art training facility on the Cook Campus in summer 2015.
"Watching the new radon training facility being built from the ground up has been really interesting," said Program Coordinator Pamela Springard-Mayer.
The new facility was used for the first time by students attending the July 15 Radon Mitigation class.
In the past, the hands-on portions of the Rutgers three-day Radon Mitigation Proficiency Course were taught at Rutgers' Environmental Health and Safety Building (affectionately known as "the slab") on the Livingston Campus in Piscataway.
When a site is contaminated with petroleum products, there are many questions. How did it happen? When did it happen? And, most importantly, who is responsible for paying to clean it up?
This fall, Rutgers University's Office of Continuing Professional Education (OCPE) will help professionals answer those questions in its completely revamped Environmental Forensics training course.
Designed for environmental consultants, attorneys, hazardous material emergency responders and professionals in related fields, the two-day class (September 9-10, 2015) will reveal the science behind the environmental forensics of petroleum and chlorinated hydrocarbon geochemistry. Students will also learn about new trends in professional investigations.
