Let Cloud Technology for Small-Business Growth Simplify Your Success
Evan Wade
Overseeing a business through a phase of rapid growth can be thrilling and immensely gratifying, but it's rarely easy. And though it may feel like the hardest part is over once you watch your plans become a chain of good decisions, preparing for added scale can come with planned and unforeseen roadblocks — a real double whammy when the growth you're facing is unexpected and massive.
Cloud technology for small-business growth can help your company beat the growing pains.
Fortunately, technology doesn't just scale — it helps scale. The right cloud technology for small-business success helps during planned and unplanned growth by clearing bottlenecks and providing ongoing operational flexibility. Further, many useful tools help businesses quantify the factors influencing that growth. This can boost the company's organizational decision-making prowess, replacing gut feel with an evidence-based approach to planning.
On that note, here are a few ways cloud technology can help your company grow:
A Few Words on Structure
The same structure that helps a company thrive can be a stumbling block when the business has gained a larger measure of success. More importantly, a business experiencing higher volumes can't exactly unring the bell. Get a reputation as a cluttered or otherwise untrustworthy company to buy from, and you can kiss that early success goodbye.
Cloud technology shines in these situations by helping the organization meet its current needs while simultaneously leaving the door open to growth. A company doesn't need to define its structure around the tools it uses, but it should make sure the tools don't lock it into a specific size or shape from the onset.
For instance, imagine a company with a phone-based sales component, and a keen eye for the future, implements a new business phone system. Though the solution helps it operate at current size, the things it can do for the business later are arguably even more impressive. When that company needs to move to a larger office or add a second location (complete with a few dozen new lines) to its existing phone systems, it will find growing is far less complex than it would have been with the legacy phone system. So long as the locations have access to high-speed internet, the company can carry its numbers or add to its network whenever the need arises.
High-level features offering flexibility and scalability pervade cloud solutions, and with good reason: A solution is only as good as what it can do for you tomorrow. If no business can realistically plan for every growth-friendly phase, knowing you have the room to expand is a comfort on its own.
Measuring the Future
Of course, driving growth isn't all about capitalizing on unplanned success. Smart businesses understand what their customers want and their employees are doing to provide it — and cloud technology for small-business growth can help provide invaluable data on both.
Regarding the hypothetical phone-based business, cloud telephony illustrates an interesting real-world take on this idea. The organization could use features of its cloud-based system to determine what times of day tend to see the most sales and/or service calls, providing actionable data for everything from marketing efforts to scheduling to money-saving efforts and beyond. It could also decide on perk packages such as a work-from-home policy, which could be used in turn to offer an attractive workplace to top-flight talent during a period of growth. A company with a strong social media presence could also use cloud-based omnichannel monitoring tools to decide on future hiring trends and numerous other decisions that affect growth.
For another example, a company with an omnichannel approach to sales or service could use cloud tools to mine data from customer surveys across channels, which could help determine which aspects of its business to focus on when it comes time to pitch to investors (or spend their dollars).
Here, distribution is an underlying strength of moving to the cloud. Where monitoring performance across branch locations without a strong technological connection can be laborious or inaccurate, the right cloud tools allow everyone within the ranks to see and act upon relevant data. In an era where evidence-based decision-making continues to prove its worth, that can make scaling feel like it was meant to happen all along — no matter how much elbow grease it took to get there.
Growing Smart
Whether your organization's growth has been expected for a long time or has left you scrambling to keep up, letting success get in the way of itself is one of the most frustrating feelings leaders can experience. Instead of wincing every time words such as "unprecedented" cross your computer screen, start thinking about a future with cloud tools now. After all, there's a reason they all promote scalability and flexibility as major selling points.

'Inevitable'? Not So Fast, Mrs. Clinton...
By Michael Walsh 5:40 AM on June 22, 2015
The sham candidacy of Hillary Rodham Clinton — we may soon start referring to it as the political equivalent of Bruce Jenner's "sex change" and Rachel Dolezal's "African-American" heritage — continues apace. Only now more and more folks are noticing that the Dowager Empress of Chappaqua is shedding her cloak of invincibility faster than Blaze Starr used to shed her clothes:
Hillary Clinton has relaunched her campaign on Roosevelt Island with a 4,687-word speech. But it's not clear whether she and her husband Bill Clinton can win four presidential elections as Franklin Roosevelt did. Negative news for Clinton's prospects comes in the latest Quinnipiac polls in the key mega-states of Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania. In each of them she leads or ties Republican opponents, though in many cases not by statistically significant margins.
But she also is running under 50 percent of the vote in every pairing, averaging 47 percent against six different Republicans in Florida, 44 percent against seven Republicans in Ohio and 46 percent against four Republicans in Pennsylvania. That's a danger zone for a candidate with universal recognition. Similarly, less than 50 percent — 47 percent in Florida, 44 percent in Ohio and 46 percent in Pennsylvania — express favorable feelings about her. Only 43 percent in Florida and 40 percent in Ohio and Pennsylvania feel she is honest and trustworthy.
And, perhaps surprisingly for a Democrat, only 48 percent in Ohio and Florida and 45 percent in Pennsylvania say she "cares about the needs and problems of people like you."
Clinton campaign spokesmen have said their goal is to reassemble Barack Obama's winning coalition. But she's falling short in three large states which Obama carried in 2012 with 50, 51 and 52 percent of the vote. These states have 67 electoral votes, without which Obama would have won only 265 — and Mitt Romney would be president.
Maybe she isn't "likable enough" after all.

Today in history: Joshua Clottey beat Deigo Corrales
On this day 7 April 2007(Exactly 13 years ago today) Joshua Clottey completely dominated Diego Corrales, knocking down the former world champion twice in a unanimous decision in their 10-round welterweight bout.
It was too much, too soon for Diego "Chico" Corrales. Attempting to move up two weight classes against a dangerous, world-ranked, full-fledged welterweight, the three-time world champion was battered and beaten up by Joshua Clottey, who scored two knockdowns en route to registering a clear-cut, dominant 10-round unanimous decision.
It was an exciting, albeit one-sided slugfest from the outset. As expected, there was little dancing or posing and the boxers performed with as much determination and courageousness as any one could expect. Both stood their ground on the inside and connected with their best shots
The naturally bigger Clottey (31-2, 1 NC, 20 KOs), was always a tad faster, quicker — and especially — stronger than Corrales (40-5, 33 KOs), who suffered his third consecutive defeat.
Seemingly as fresh late as he was early, Clottey scored one knockdown in the ninth and another in the 10th en route to triumphing by 100-87, 98-89 and 97-90. Corrales had a point deducted in the 10th for spitting out his mouthpiece after going down. His mouthpiece also came out after the initial knockdown.
"Corrales was tough and this was not an easy fight," said Clottey, the World Boxing Organization (WBO) No. 4 contender, who broke Corrales' jaw in the middle rounds, rocked and staggered him throughout with pin-point combinations to the chin and cut him over the right eye in the later sessions.
"I expected a hard fight and that is what I got,'' Clottey continued. "But I knew from the beginning that I had him, that if I fought my fight I would wear him down. This is a huge win. I am very happy. I got an opportunity and I was able to make the best of it. This puts me right where I want to be.''
Clottey was coming off a close decision loss to WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito in a bout Dec. 2, 2006, in which he re-injured his left hand.
"My hands did not give me any trouble tonight," Clottey said.
Corrales, a world champion at 135 pounds and two-time world champ at 130, has always readily accepted any and all challenges, so he knew going in he was taking a major risk.
"I do not think I made a bad decision because I was able to fight the kind of fight that I wanted, which was on the inside," he said. "I was hurting him with body shots. I think my jaw was broken in the fifth round. My corner asked me if I wanted to keep fighting and I said yes.
"My main concern now is getting the jaw fixed. Once that it is taken care of, I am going to sit down with my team and decide if I want to stay at 147 or go down to 140.
"Clottey deserves credit. He caught me with a couple of great shots.''
Bout Summary
Location: Shrine Mosque, Springfield, Missouri, USA
Referee: Mike England
Judge: Leo Johnson 89-98
Judge: Jerry Griffin 87-100
Judge: David Sutherland 90-97
On this day 7 April 2001(Exactly 19 years ago today) Former WBO bantamweight champion, Alfred Kotey, made a sensational come-back at the Conference Center, Wembley, London, England to win the vacant World Boxing Federation Intercontinental lightweight title against British fighter, Anthony Maynard.
After being knocked down in the earlier rounds and subjected to severe beating for six rounds, the Birmingham man refused to answer the bell for the seventh round.
The fight, promoted by Tommy Gilmour's St. Andrews Sporting Club, was originally billed as a Commonwealth lightweight championship fight but that had to change following an intervention by the Ghana Boxing Authority.
Promoter Gilmour had earlier announced that James " Bukom Fire" Armah, who held the Commonwealth titles in both the superfeatherweight and lightweight divisions, had relinquished the lightweight version of his double championship.
But in reaction to that, the GBA wrote to the Commonwealth Boxing Council that " Armah had not expressed any intention to relinguish that title " and refused to endorse any activity of Kotey in London, accusing him and his handlers of breaking the GBA 's disciplinary code by leaving without the authority's approval.
Following pleas from other quarters, however, the GBA reviewed its earlier position and allowed Kotey to go for the WBF title on a number of condition.
Among the conditions, the boxer was asked to pay £200 as percentage to the GBA and a fine of £500 "for treating the GBA with contempt."
He also paid an amount of £35 for telephone and fax expenses and his manager Mr Yoofi Boham was asked to pay £200 " which he had refused to pay to the GBA as manager of Eric Odumase in his Commonwealth fight against Scott Harrison."
According to the GBA, the recoverable amounts should be held by Mr Tommy Gilmour on behalf of the authority.
On this day 7 April 2015(Exactly 5 years ago today) The former Ghana FA President Kwesi Nyantakyi was re-elected unopposed as a member of the CAF Executive Committee for the Zone West B during the 37th Annual General Meeting in Cairo, Egypt.
In February 2011, Nyantakyi won the CAF Executive Committee seat in a landslide victory after polling 34 votes, 15 more than what Benin's Anjorin Moucharafou garnered.
He became the fifth Ghanaian to become a member of CAF's Executive Committee after Ohene Djan (1961-1966), Kobina Hagan (1961-1962), Nana Fredua Mensah (1968-1972) and Samuel Okyere (1990-1994).

The Chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Mr Jia Qinglin, officiated at the opening ceremony of the "Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao Trade and Economic Co-operation Forum" this morning (June 29) and delivered a keynote speech.
The forum was jointly organised by the Ministry of Commerce and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, and co-organised by Hong Kong Trade Development Council and the China International Center for Economic and Technical Exchanges to mark the third anniversary of the signing of the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA).
The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong SAR, Mr Donald Tsang; the Chief Executive of the Macao SAR, Mr Edmund Ho; and the Minister of Commerce, Mr Bo Xilai, also addressed the forum which was attended by 600 guests from the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao, including those senior officials from the Central and provincial governments.
Mr Jia said the signing and implementation of CEPA had promoted multi-level and wide-ranging business co-operation between the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao and boosted the all-round growth of the economies in Hong Kong and Macao as well as helping the Mainland become more open and improve its economic structure.
"CEPA has proved to serve as a platform and powerful engine for strengthening economic and trade ties between the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao as it speeds up the free flow of goods and services, accelerates regional economic integration and enhances complementarity, mutual benefit and common development of the three economies," the chairman said.
He added that the new CEPA measures and the new policies being studied by the State Council on expanding renminbi business announced today would bring about faster and better economic development of the three regions and instil strong vitality into economic ties and co-operation between the Mainland and Hong Kong and Macao.
Mr Tsang said Hong Kong was strategically located to "leverage the Mainland and engage ourselves globally". One of the key areas of our economic development, he said, was to create a win-win situation through strengthening economic and trade co-operation with the Mainland and complementing each other's strengths.
He said that Hong Kong's economy had now fully recovered. Along with the efforts of Hong Kong people, the implementation of CEPA had been important in precipitating the rapid recovery. "We estimate that in its first two years of implementation, CEPA has created 29,000 jobs and generated $5.4 billion in services receipts and $5.5 billion in capital investment for Hong Kong."
Since the signing of CEPA between the Mainland and Hong Kong on June 29, 2003, the two sides had been working closely with a view to broadening the scope and coverage of the arrangement. Agreements on further liberalisation under the second and third phases of CEPA were reached in 2004 and 2005.
To thrash out further liberalisation measures under CEPA, the Financial Secretary, Mr Henry Tang, and the Vice-Minister of Commerce, Mr Liao Xiaoqi, co-chaired the High Level Meeting of the CEPA Steering Committee on June 27.
The two sides signed the Supplement of CEPA on further liberalisation of trade in services in the Mainland for Hong Kong and strengthening co-operation in area of trade and investment.
On trade in services, under the supplement, from January 1, 2007, the Mainland would further relax market access conditions in the 10 areas of legal, construction, information technology, convention and exhibition, audiovisual, distribution, tourism, air transport, road transport and individually owned stores.
- Allow Hong Kong residents who have acquired Mainland lawyer qualifications or legal professional qualifications to undergo internship in a branch office of a Mainland law firm set up in Hong Kong in accordance with the Outline for Practical Training and the Guidelines on Practical Training as required on the Mainland.
On tourism services, Hong Kong travel agents in Guangdong Province will be allowed to apply for the operation on a pilot basis of group tours to Hong Kong and Macao for residents of Guangdong Province (residents registered with permanent residence in Guangdong Province).
The supplement also allows Hong Kong air transport sales agencies to set up wholly-owned air transport sales agencies on the Mainland. The registered capital requirement will be the same as that for the Mainland enterprises. Hong Kong service suppliers are also allowed to set up wholly-owned construction engineering cost consulting enterprises on the Mainland. When applying for qualification, the performance of the Hong Kong service suppliers in both Hong Kong and the Mainland is taken into account in assessing their qualification on the Mainland.
On trade and investment facilitation, to promote co-operation in the area of protection of intellectual property between the two places, the two sides agree to add protection of intellectual property into the area of trade and investment facilitation under CEPA.
The two sides recognise that strengthening intellectual property protection plays an important role in advancing economic development and promoting economic and trade exchanges and co-operation between the two places. Both sides also agree to strengthen co-operation in the area of intellectual property protection through the setting up in Hong Kong the Intellectual Property Protection Co-ordination Centre to exchange and communicate information relating to intellectual property protection of the two places.
On top of the new liberalisation measures under CEPA, the State Council is earnestly studying the scope for further expansion of renminbi business in Hong Kong, which includes allowing Hong Kong importers to settle direct import trade from the Mainland in renminbi, and allowing financial institutions on the Mainland to issue renminbi financial bonds in Hong Kong on a pilot basis. This is a major policy initiated by the Central People's Government in support of the consolidation and development of Hong Kong's status as an international financial centre. The HKSAR Government will maintain close liaison with the Mainland authorities to expedite the preparatory work for an early launch of these two types of new business.
At today's forum, two panel discussions were held on regional economic co-operation. The theme of the first discussion is the trend of regional economic cooperation – finance, tourism and logistics. Hosted by the Financial Secretary, guest speakers of the session were Liao Xiaoqi; the Deputy Director of the China National Development and Reform Commission, Mr Bi Jingquan, the Deputy Governor of the People's Bank of China, Ms Hu Xiaolian; and the Chairman of the China National Tourism Administration, Mr Shao Qiwei.
The moderator of the second panel discussion was the Dean of Business and Management of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Professor K C Chan. Guest speakers of the session exchanged their views on the prospect of co-operation among Mainland, Hong Kong and Macao under CEPA.

Colleges in Louisiana
Why go to College in Louisiana?
With schools ranging from small liberal arts colleges to world-renowned research universities, Louisiana offers academic opportunities for everyone. Students can pursue their education at public or private four-year institutions and two-year community or technical colleges. The state also welcomes distance learners, with a variety of degree programs available at both on-campus and online schools in Louisiana. Dozens of scholarships are available to make college more affordable for both Louisiana residents and out-of-state applicants. With an economy that continues to improve, graduates face brighter job prospects than in years past.
More than 4.6 million people live in Louisiana, with nearly half in Baton Rouge and New Orleans. These two cities are home to several of the state's top colleges, including Louisiana State, Tulane, Loyola, and Xavier.
Northerners can leave their winter gear behind. Louisiana has a subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and short, mild winters. Because of its proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, the state averages 60 inches of rainfall a year -- second only to Hawaii.
Louisiana's 173 public and private schools produce students who are competitive in their respective job markets. Among these are state schools, for-profit colleges, and religious seminaries.
Louisiana gives professional and college sports fans plenty to cheer for. New Orleans is home to the NFL's Saints and the NBA's Pelicans, and boasts 12 collegiate NCAA Division I programs. The LSU Tigers football team claims 11 Southeastern Conference titles and three national championships.
Nightlife: When it comes to nightlife, few cities can top New Orleans, whose motto is "Laissez les bon temps rouler!" ("Let the good times roll.") The city is legendary for its food, jazz, Bourbon Street, and, of course, Mardi Gras. New Orleans truly is one of the most unique places to live and learn.
What Options are Available for Colleges in Louisiana?
A traditional, on-campus education is ideal for students who desire face-to-face learning, can take day or evening classes, and want to experience all that campus life offers. Louisiana hosts 64 public and private institutions, and its Board of Regents oversees public schools in four separate systems: the University of Louisiana System is the largest, with 90,000 students and more than 700 degree programs; the Louisiana State University System operates nine schools statewide; the Southern University and A&M College System is the country's only historically black university system; and the Louisiana Community and Technical College System manages the state's two-year institutions.
Online colleges in Louisiana are a great option for working professionals and those with family commitments. Distance learning gives students maximum flexibility to tailor classes to their schedule; they can log in anywhere and complete coursework when it's convenient.
Online learning is ideal for students who are self-disciplined. The best distance learners set up a quiet, designated study area and dedicate time every week to completing coursework. They are comfortable working independently without face-to-face communication with professors or classmates. Students attending online schools in Louisiana can expect courses to feature recorded lectures, video chats, and discussion boards.
Hybrid, or blended, learning combines in-person and online coursework, giving students the best of both worlds. The format varies by curriculum, but typically a hybrid course requires students to complete assignments online and meet weekly on campus for lectures, lab work, or group projects. Many Louisiana public and private schools offer hybrid courses and programs. Louisiana Online lists 144 hybrid programs at 26 public colleges and universities across the state.
Popular Degree Programs in Louisiana
Louisiana's most popular degree programs reflect its most visible industries: oil and natural gas production, tourism, and business services. Traditional and online colleges in Louisiana offer curricula that prepare students for high-demand jobs in these fields.
A popular major in the state, many undergraduate and graduate degree programs in the field combine academic learning with on-site experience. Students prepare for technical and management positions by learning about the drilling, production, service, and supply operations of the industry.
Another popular major, this gives students practical knowledge they can apply in any industry. Students complete courses such as business administration, accounting, marketing, and human resources to develop skills that small and large companies find valuable.
BEST ONLINE COLLEGES IN LOUISIANA FOR 2019
The demand continues to grow for distance learning, and traditional and online colleges in Louisiana are meeting the need. Nearly all private and public institutions in the state offer online or hybrid courses, and many deliver undergraduate and graduate degree programs fully online. A recent NCES report reveals that 41,316 Louisiana students take some or all of their courses online.
The Louisiana Board of Regents hosts Louisiana Online, a resource which enables distance learners to research information about online programs at the state's public colleges and universities.

Education Trends in Louisiana
Downturns in the U.S. economy since 2010 forced 37 states, including Louisiana, to cut funding for public higher education. According to the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association, higher education funding per full-time student in the U.S. dropped 2.4% from 2010-2015 to $6,966. By comparison, higher education funding in Louisiana declined 28.5% to $5,564 per student during the same period -- the largest drop in the country. U.S. Census figures show that the percentage of Louisiana adults who have earned undergraduate and graduate degrees trails the national average.
Percentage of adults over 25 with graduate degree or higher 7.7% 11.2%
Paying for College in Louisiana
Cost is an important factor for students to consider when choosing a college. They should budget for tuition and fees, books and supplies, and personal expenses. On-campus students need to factor in room and board; off-campus students need to plan for rent, utilities, food, transportation, and parking. Those considering online colleges in Louisiana may find distance learning to be a more affordable option. Whether they plan to complete a program online or on campus, students should investigate financial aid, scholarship, and grant opportunities to help defray costs.
Tuition and fees vary by type of institution and program. Typically, private schools are considerably more expensive than public schools, and four-year institutions usually cost more than two-year colleges. The following table shows how Louisiana's in-state tuition and fees for public schools compare to the national average. These prices do not include additional costs, such as books, housing, food, and transportation.
While the price of a college education may seem out of reach at first glance, there are lots of options available to help students reduce their costs.
Students should explore all financial aid options and pursue every opportunity for which they meet the eligibility requirements. Ask schools if they offer semester or term payment plans. Research and apply early for scholarships. Veterans, their spouses, and their dependents can seek military benefits. Working professionals should determine whether they qualify for their employer's tuition reimbursement plan.
Federal financial aid is also available in the form of grants and loans. The first step to determining your eligibility is to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). In-state students can check with the Louisiana Office for Student Financial Assistance for additional opportunities.
Cost for Online Programs in Louisiana
Distance learners attending online schools in Louisiana are eligible for the same federal and private financial aid opportunities available to on-campus students. In many instances, online learning can be less expensive overall than a traditional college program. The cost for tuition, fees, and books are generally the same for on-campus and online courses. Since most online students can complete schoolwork at home, they avoid the fees for room and board associated with living on campus as well as the transportation expenses incurred by commuter students. Most programs recommend that distance learners invest in a high-speed internet connection and a reliable computer to help them complete coursework efficiently.
Cost of living is the amount of money required to live comfortably in a given area, and it varies widely from place to place. Costs include necessities -- like housing, food, transportation, and healthcare -- and personal expenditures, like entertainment. Students interested in a traditional campus-based education should account for the area's cost of living in their budget before finalizing their college selection.
The following table compares median housing costs for Louisiana's two largest college towns to other cities in the region.

However, every scholarship is different and may only be valid for a specific program or school. Applicants may need to meet requirements for financial need, GPA, and state residency. Research scholarships carefully and submit all required documentation with the application. Students who aren't sure whether online schools in Louisiana accept a particular scholarship should contact the scholarship program coordinator.
Employment Outlook in Louisiana
There's reason to be optimistic about Louisiana's economic outlook. The Louisiana Workforce Commission reports the state's job market continues to improve. Companies added 24,000 new jobs from August 2016 to August 2017, and Bureau of Labor Statistics figures show that Louisiana's unemployment rate stands at a nine-year low. The leisure and hospitality industry, along with professional and business services, show the biggest job growth. Mining and logging, which includes the oil and gas sector, shows the largest job loss. Graduates may want to begin their job search in Louisiana's two largest cities, Baton Rouge and New Orleans, which lead the state in new job creation.
Unemployment Rate, May 2017 5.2% 4.3%

Accreditation for Colleges in Louisiana
The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges is the regional body that approves accreditation for higher education institutions in Louisiana.
Institutional accreditation demonstrates that colleges and universities meet minimum education quality standards. Following rigorous reviews and evaluations, institutions may receive regional or national accreditation by organizations recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). CHEA, a nongovernmental association, serves as a national advocate for accreditation and recognizes 60 accrediting bodies. Only recognized accreditors can monitor federal student aid programs in institutions. Both the Department of Education and CHEA maintain online databases that display an institution's current accreditation status.
Regionally accredited institutions are generally degree-oriented, state-owned, or nonprofit. It's easier for students to transfer credits between institutions that are regionally accredited. Nationally accredited institutions generally offer vocational or technical programs, or may have a religious affiliation. Online colleges in Louisiana must meet the same strict criteria as their on-campus counterparts to earn regional or national accreditation.
Specific degree programs, departments, or schools within an accredited institution can seek programmatic or specialized accreditation. Programmatic accreditation demonstrates to certifying boards and employers that the curriculum meets high industry standards, and is open to both traditional schools and online colleges in Louisiana.

Louisiana Office of Student Financial Assistance: The Louisiana Office of Student Financial Assistance (LOSFA) is the state's primary source of financial assistance programs for Louisiana students.

START Saving Program: The START Saving Program is the state's 529 college savings plan that helps make education affordable and accessible to Louisiana residents. Launched in 1995, START offers federal and state tax incentives to anyone who deposits funds in an Education Savings Account to help a student attend college in Louisiana.
State institution tuition and fees: State institution tuition and fees are published annually by the state Board of Regents and enable students to compare costs for undergraduate and graduate programs at colleges and universities in the state's four higher education systems.
Transfer Degree Guarantee (TDG): The Transfer Degree Guarantee (TDG) program helps qualified students transfer seamlessly from Louisiana's two-year community colleges to its four-year public universities. TDG saves students time and money, and takes the guesswork out of the transfer process.

The tool analyzes their skills and assesses whether they would succeed as a distance learner, then provides an overview of what students should do before and during their online courses.
Louisiana Board of Regents: The Louisiana Board of Regents sets the statewide standards for Louisiana's degree-granting public colleges and universities. The site provides detailed information about the colleges and universities that the Board oversees, including reports on admission standards, enrollment, tuition and fees, and current degree programs.

Posted on 5 August, 2013 by yazdi	Leave a comment
THE EVERLASTING FLAME EXHIBITION: ZOROASTRIANISM IN HISTORY AND IMAGINATION
http://www.theeverlastingflame.com
11TH OCTOBER – 14TH DECEMBER 2013
OPEN TUESDAY – SATURDAY 10.30 – 17.00 & LATE NIGHT THURSDAY UNTIL 20.00
BRUNEI GALLERY, SCHOOL OF ORIENTAL AND AFRICAN STUDIES
THORNHAUGH STREET, RUSSELL SQUARE, LONDON WC1H 0XG
"The Everlasting Flame: Zoroastrianism in History and Imagination" provides a visual narrative of the history of Zoroastrianism from its ancient Iranian roots, to its emergence as the foremost religion of the Achaemenid and Parthian empires as well as its consolidation as the state religion under the Sasanians and the establishment of the great regnal fires.
The reach of Zoroastrianism into Central Asia and China and its influence on the major religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam will also be demonstrated in the exhibition. From Iran to the west coast of India the story continues with the maritime journey of Zoroastrians and their settlement in India, their growth as an immigrant community under British colonial rule, and the later expansion of the modern diaspora.
The exhibition consists of a series of ten stories within the overall historical narrative that explores the fascinating ways in which Zoroastrianism has been imagined through the art, iconography and literature of non-Zoroastrians down the ages. Inside the exhibition artifacts, coins and silverware introduce the ancient and imperial periods of Iranian Zoroastrian history. Illustrated texts and manuscripts written in Avestan, Pahlavi, Persian and Gujarati languages show how the oral tradition was committed to writing during the Sasanian and later periods. The economic growth of the Parsi diaspora in India is demonstrated through paintings, porcelain, textiles, jewellery and furnishings from the nineteenth century and photographic materials will illustrate the grown of the later diaspora in Hong Kong, Singapore, the United States and Britain.
As well as the inclusion of important artifacts, the exhibition transforms areas of the gallery with spectacular installations. On approaching the gallery visitors will be confronted with a replica of the facade of the Yazd fire temple that will adorn the entrance of the building. A walk in fire temple, a central feature of the exhibition located on the lower floor of the gallery will consist of a prayer room, inner sanctum and ritual precinct where the yasna ceremony is performed. As outsiders are not allowed into fire temples in India this will be a unique opportunity for visitors. Other signature pieces include a reproduction engraved in glass of the British Museum's 10 metre cast of the western staircase from the palace of Darius at Persepolis, complete with the magnificent lion and bull motif. Finally, verses from the Gathas of Zarathustra will be presented as a series of large calligraphic panels and combined with voice recordings of the text to be presented as an audio-visual experience.
The exhibition is accompanied by a major publication sponsored by the ZTFE and published by IB Tauris, for which the foreword will be written by HRH The Prince of Wales. Hence this will be the first time in the history of the ZTFE and the Zoroastrian community in the UK that a ZTFE sponsored publication with a forward written by the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom and will also have an ISBN number.
The Everlasting Flame Exhibition has only gone ahead because the Zoroastrian Trust Funds of Europe (ZTFE) agreed to core fund it by GBP£100,000, budget is £300,000, for which quite a few rank and file ZTFE members donated around GBP£1000 – £5000. Funds are still required and I am inquiring whether you know of donors who would be willing to donate GBP£1000/- or more towards The Everlasting Flame Flame Appeal?
There will also be a two day conference titled "Looking Back: The Formation of Zoroastrian Identity Through Rediscovery of the Past" and organised by the Centre for Iranian Studies, LMEI, SOAS will take place at the Brunei Gallery Lecture Theatre on the 11th and 12th October 2013. Further information.

It is the first time in the West, that there will be a world class exhibition on Zoroastrianism in the West, at a noted world class university, located in one of the top cities in world and that too for a 2 month duration.

Boccaccio è un film del 1972 diretto da Bruno Corbucci.

Trama
Firenze, 1348. Buonamico di Cristofano, detto Buffalmacco, e Bruno degli Olivieri fanno credere a Calandrino, un ingenuo imbianchino, di avere scoperto una pietra che rende invisibili. Il poveretto, convinto di poter andare ovunque senza essere visto, chiede subito di comprarla e presto finisce per essere imprigionato.

I due mascalzoni, dopo poco, ascoltano nascosti la confessione di una bella damigella. Il confessore, padre Ignazio, approfitta della credulità della penitente per farle credere che il beato Marcuccio è innamorato pazzo di lei e che la vuole incontrare sotto falsa identità. I due birboni circuiscono la donna e ne abusano, facendosi passare per cherubini che scortano il santo.

Buffalmacco e Bruno continuano a mietere le loro vittime: Calandrino di nuovo, poi l'oste Nicostrato, seguito da Fiammetta e da suo marito Pietro, poi ancora Lambertuccio e Cagastraccio. Il bel gioco viene interrotto dallo scoppio della peste in Firenze.

I due compari riescono a fuggire sul carro della Principessa di Chivignì, accompagnata dalla sua ancella Filomena. Incontrano Lambertuccio, in compagnia di Belcolore travestita da uomo. Un appestato, cadendo e afferrando il mantello di Belcolore, rivela le sue fattezze femminili. Lambertuccio rifiuta allora l'invito degli amici di fuggire con l'allegra brigate, per sposare la sua conquista.

Produzione
Andrea Fabbricatore, a cui fu affidato il ruolo di Calandrino, non era un attore: fu un farmacista, esperto in geografia, venuto alla ribalta nel 1972 sbancando il Rischiatutto di Mike Bongiorno con la vincita di 25 milioni di lire, una delle più alte di tutti i tempi.

Ambientato nella Firenze trecentesca, le riprese esterne si svolsero quasi completamente a Viterbo.

The Fedorin Cup continues to make a difference, one year at a time.
Held late last month at The Rinks-Anaheim Ice, the annual charity hockey game and casino night raises money to fight cancer by hosting a day's worth of activities that allow participants to be immersed in hockey while being part of a great cause all at the same time.
"I thought the event was really well received by the community, and that attendance was probably one of the strongest we've ever experienced," said event founder and organizer Rick Hutchinson. "The game is always pretty-much sold out, but this year, I really felt people got more involved by coming earlier and staying later – that certainly helps raise more money.
The event, which started in 1998 to support Eric Fedorin – a teammate of Hutchinson's who was diagnosed with brain cancer at the age of 34 – has grown into a full day of activities. Hutchinson says this year was the fourth a casino night was held after the game – an addition that's becoming more and more popular.
There were several new additions to this year's Fedorin Cup, both on and off the ice. The Fedorin Stick Kids patrolled the benches for both sides, as spots were auctioned off for youngsters to get close to both clubs. What's more, a Mite exhibition game between the first and second periods was a big hit for kids to get out and skate next to current and former pro players.
In addition, longtime master of ceremonies and Anaheim Ducks public address announcer Phil Hulett provided hockey fans of any age a thrill by auctioning off recordings of him announcing a Ducks goal – only inserting any person's name as the goal-scorer.
Hulett did it in exchange for a minimum $10 donation, which he in turn gave back to the cause.
The support the event receives from both past and present NHL players each year is impressive, and Hutchinson says it's reached the point where he's the one receiving phone calls from players wanting to attend instead of him having to make them.
As for future plans for the Fedorin Cup, Hutchinson is already hard at work recapping this year's event and looking at what can be improved on next year. One item high on Hutchinson's list is getting more sponsors in the mix in an effort to raise even more money for organizations that fight cancer.
"Whenever you run a charity event, you're always conscious of how much money you're spending, so whatever I can do to get more support to offset the costs of running this kind of endeavor, I'm going to do it," said Hutchinson.


Helping students of all ages become human rights advocates has many challenges. We must somehow cultivate students' interest in applying a human rights perspective to their personal lives, to their school and neighborhood, and in their national and international communities. We also must help them recognize the tools they already possess for effective action and help them identify the skills and knowledge they still need to develop. Finally, we must show students how to go about finding the resources and outside support needed to become effective advocates.
In Teaching for Human Dignity, (Betty A. Reardon, In Teaching for Human Dignity (Philadelphia: U of Penn., 1995) Betty Reardon outlines the phases in the development of an advocate. First, of course, people must become aware of human rights concerns. However, if they are to be more than mere spectators, their interest needs to be aroused. They need to start choosing to pay attention. They need to start seeking information about the social origins, history, and consequences of problems they are witnessing. At this step of the process, they are moving from being spectators to being active observers. As the learning process continues, observers begin to develop a greater concern about injustice. This greater concern leads people to want to make others aware. They may tell their friends and families about the problems they are seeing. In other words, they are becoming human rights witnesses.
From being witnesses they progress to being dissatisfied simply making others aware: they are moved to take action. They may choose to do community service or get involved in a service learning project. They may choose to become advocates, join an advocacy group or publicly campaign on human rights issues, write letters to government officials, participate in demonstrations or other awareness events. People's involvement may progress to the point of starting their own advocacy group, planning their own awareness events, or coordinating with other organizations. As committed advocates, they can envision, plan, and carry out their own course of action to address an issue that they have come to care deeply about.
Kathleen McGinnis in Educating for a Just Society (Kathleen McGinnis, Educating for a Just Society (St. Louis, MO: Institute for Peace and Justice, 1992) provides a methodology for educating students for peace and justice. Much of this methodology can be applied to teaching students to become human rights advocates.
Once students become aware of human rights issues, before they will be interested in and able to take effective action, they must have some confidence in their own gifts and abilities. It can be very helpful to start planning a project with an assessment of students' abilities. Ask students to list their individual talents and strengths, and then compile a class list. Here, a teacher with a good knowledge of his or her students can point out strengths that students may not be aware of. Also, a teacher can point out the special talents of students that otherwise might not be acknowledged by the class. Throughout a community action project, teachers should help students articulate the skills they are developing. Students also need to learn appropriate ways to take a stand on an issue and assert their opinions. For young adolescents this can be particularly hard. It might be helpful to spend some time as a class examining the feelings involved in forming and publicly stating an opinion. You might also wish to explore the reasons it is important to speak up.
Equally important is that students have a solid understanding of the process by which change takes place. All students need to be able to identify decision-making powers and structures in their schools and communities. For older students, that understanding should be extended to regional, national, and international levels. For certain projects, an understanding of governmental bodies, economic markets, and legal frameworks might be critical. Students should also learn how political action groups and social justice groups can interact with these structures to bring about change. Adults need to familiarize students with appropriate channels for taking action on issues, and prepare them for the fact that often the most effective ways of bringing about change require patience and diplomacy.
The transition from spectator to advocate is often rooted in the very personal. Students will be moved to take action on human rights issues to which they feel emotionally connected. Many will be particularly committed to working on issues with which they have direct experience. Thus teachers need to be sensitive to students' life situations and experiences and be ready for the possibility that the issue the class is working on may hit very cose to home for some students.
Stories of people directly affected by human rights problems often can be powerful and important in motivating students. Videos are helpful; personal contact is even better, whenever possible. Inviting individuals to speak to the class, so that students can ask questions and get to know them, makes human rights less abstract, more personal and urgent for the students. These personal contacts can dispel stereotypes and empower students who are themselves struggling against injustice in some way. Inviting other activists, particularly students, can also be inspiring. Motivation and inspiration can come from students' seeing themselves as part of a larger community of advocates. Opportunities for students to celebrate the classroom fellowship and social relationships fostered by working together on an action project are also very beneficial. Any connections with others working on similar projects can reinforce the importance and value of students' efforts.
Although developing an action project with a class requires significant time and effort, the rewards are great. At times teachers may need to seek out background information on a particular topic, but they need not be human rights experts to work with students in mounting an effective project. Becoming an activist is a learning process in which adults participate along with young people. Students and adults can work together to gather information and plan effective strategies. Action projects are cooperative activities in which adults frequently are inspired by students' enthusiasm, and students benefit from seeing the adults as learners.
