Program DescriptionNew-teacher Induction Programs involves those practices used to help new and beginning teachers become competent and effective professionals in the classroom. Induction programs also help develop an understanding of the local school, community and cultures. “Formal induction programs provide stability between the closely supervised pre-service experience and experienced classroom responsibilities.” (ERIC Digest 4, 1986) An effective induction program should be a continuing process that includes orientation, mentorship and offer systematic training over two or three years.The intent of all induction programs is to transform a new teacher into a competent career teacher. However, no two induction programs are exactly alike; “each caters to the culture and needs of its unique school or district.” (Delisio, 2003) Several common com
DISH Network is the satellite broadcasting brand name of EchoStar Communications Corporation, an international and publicly held company headquartered in Englewood, Colorado.Humble BeginningsEstablished in 1980, EchoStar was the vision of now Chairman and CEO, Charlie Ergen along with his wife, Cantey and friend, James DeFranco. With the company’s focus on customer service and cutting-edge equipment, it wasn’t long before EchoStar quickly began to grow.In 1986, EchoStar introduced the world’s first UHF remote control and just one year later, filed for a Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) license with the FCC. They were granted that license in 1992. EchoStar soon turned its focus to providing its own DBS service and in 1995, realized that goal with the launch of EchoStar I from Xichang, China.And the DISH Network brand name was born.How you start your day can be a critical part of having a successful day. Your thoughts, feelings, and attitude first thing in the morning can shape the entire day ahead. Does your alarm clock scream at you every morning to get up? Rather than facing the day with anticipation, do you have to drag yourself out of bed and then proceed through your morning routine with very little motivation, energy or enthusiasm? Here are five easy steps that can help you change that pattern and improve your attitude throughout the day.
1) Evaluate how you wake yourself up
If you use an alarm clock, think about the sound that you use to wake up and what the volume is. Is is a blaring alarm? The radio? Your cell phone? Is is soothing or does that sound jolt you out of a deep sleep? A loud sound that awakens you suddenly is stressful to your body and mind first thing in the morning.
Some people are able to program their bodies and minds to wake up at the time that they need to be up. But others of us have not mastered that technique, so it's important to find a gentle alternative.
One way to have an easier transition in the morning from being asleep to being awake is to use a progressive alarm clock. There a number of companies that sell clocks that wake you by starting off with a lower volume or with a light which gradually increases in intensity.
After years of jarring myself out of the comfort of sleep with a standard alarm or my cell phone alarm, the product I now use is the Verilux Rise & Shine Natural Alarm Clock. The ratings on Amazon for this product are low, but I've been very happy with mine. I use the pillow speaker and gradually wake up in the morning to the sounds of a running brook. In the evening I gradually fall asleep to the sound of the ocean. The Verilux is a little pricey if you're concerned about money, but you can always ask for it as a gift. Hammacher Schlemmer (go to www.hammacher.com) also makes a progressive alarm clock that seems to get good reviews, and th

When you want your brand new site to be indexed into major search engines, you usually go to their free submit page and submit your website, correct? Seems like the right thing to do, right?Well, many people fail to realize that not submitting your site is usually better than actually submitting it.Let, me explain.All the search engines, or the MAJOR ones, for our discussion here have what are called webcrawlers. Now, webcrawlers are little programs that go out onto the web and search or "crawl" around looking for websites that are not already indexed into their databases.Google search engine is a well-known engine that does this, its webcrawler "GOOGLEBOT" crawls the web looking for "non-existent" sites that are not in their index(database). To see evidence of this, look at your stats for your website and see if Googlebot has crawled your sit

Employers often ask employees to designate the amount of tax withholdings for paychecks. Occasionally, employees will fail to withhold a sufficient amount in the eyes of the IRS. The IRS will then send a “lock-in” letter on the amount to be withheld. What’s an employer to do?WithholdingsFour taxes must be withheld from employee paychecks – Medicare, Social Security, Federal Income and State Income tax. The Medicare tax is set at roughly 1.5 percent of salary while social security is set at 6.2 percent. The withholding for federal and state income tax, however, is subject to adjustments made by employees. The amount of tax required to be withheld by the IRS requires a calculation beyond the scope of this article, but you can look to the “Employer’s Tax Guide” on the IRS web site.If an employee claims excessive deductions that result in insufficient wi

I Love food. Baked cheese-cake in particular. And lasagne. And dark chocolate. Specifically, Lindt.And I love a hamburger with egg, cheese and onion. A massive hamburger, dripping with egg and sauce (ketchup for my American friends), covered in a pound of cheese and two inches of fried onions. If I was hungry and someone got between me and that hamburger, there's a fair chance I'd hurt them. Badly. I have food issues. I'm a work in progress. People think that because I do what I do for a living (trainer, exercise scientist, educator, etc.) that I have an aversion to anything with sugar, fat, salt or flavour. Are you kidding? Let's get one thing clear: If I could eat five pieces of thick white toast with crunchy peanut butter for breakfast every day, and stay lean and healthy, I'd do it. No brainer. Cheesecake every night and stay in shape? Okay, I'
2) Use the snooze time creatively
Wake yourself up a few minutes early, but stay in bed. Instead of going back to sleep, take the time between when you hit the snooze button and when your alarm next goes off to create your day in your mind.
This does not mean to start listing in your head everything you need to do in the next 16 hours. That's much too stressful!
It does mean to first take a few moments to think about the things in your life that you're grateful for. Gratitude is a great emotion booster. It's hard to feel lazy and unhappy when you are feeling grateful. Think of anything you can - maybe your family, your dog, nice weather, a good night's sleep, the good meal you had with friends last week, anything you appreciate - and spend a few moments feeling grateful. This step alone can change your feelings toward the coming day which leads to more success and productivity.
Next, use your remaining time in bed to imagine a successful day for yourself. Visualize or imagine for yourself what your successful day looks like. It might be completing a section of a project, getting the house clean, having a talk with your boss, or making it through the morning without yelling at your kids. Imagining your success at something doesn't mean you have to do it, but it makes it more likely that you will. Even if you don't accomplish what you'd hoped for, later in the day you should congratulate yourself on any part of it that you managed to do - and the next morning you should ima
