  • RCCC CCCT Tour Diary
    East Tour Diary Tuesday 7 January East tour at the Quality Inn, Edinburgh Airport 56 Excited curlers gathered in the Quality Inn at Edinburgh Airport. Team photographs were taken and followed by a few well-chosen words from team Captain, Donald Whyte thanking people behind the scenes. Malcolm Patrick Transport arrangements Ian Simpson Quaichs Ian McLaren Bags Keith Prentice Bunnets Bill Duncan and Ron Caithness Organising the tour finances Robin Park and John Phillips Song book Charles Jackson Secretarial support Ainslie Smith Everything else!

Some curlers from Fife RCCC CCCT2003 East Tour Diary 1 Wednesday 8 January 4.00am Wake up call 4.30am Gather in reception 5.00am Check in Enough said! The East Tour had started with a vengeance! An illegal photograph at Edinburgh Airport! Travel organiser Malcolm Patrick, Matt Murdoch and Team Captain Donald Whyte flew down on a different airline to Heathrow. The rest of us wondered if there was something they knew that we didn’t! All went well however on the first leg of our adventure. Experienced international traveller Bill Duncan pointed out that the boarding passes on all our boarding cards had “Hospitality” writ large along the top, so a band of gullible curlers followed him to the Maple Leaf lounge to take advantage of Air Canada’s renowned pre-departure hospitality service. Robin Copland was shoved to the front to explain just how important this party was, only to be gently informed that “Hospitality” was Air-Canada-speak for “back of the bus”! Collapse of case and a shame-faced backtrack through security ensued.

  • 150 Notable Manitoba Curling Teams
    150 NOTABLE MANITOBA CURLING TEAMS In honour of Manitoba’s 150 th Anniversary, the Manitoba Curling Hall of Fame and Museum has undertaken to identify 150 teams which played a significant role in creating (in the early years) and extending (in more recent times) Manitoba’s reputation for competitive excellence in the world of curling. Our list acknowledges teams from all competitive sectors from the high-profile junior and men’s and women’s teams to less well-known teams at the mixed, senior, and masters levels and even outside the association realm in the deaf, police and postal championship realms. All of these successful teams played roles in establishing Manitoba’s well-deserved reputation. We also acknowledge recent successes in the new discipline of Mixed Doubles but this historical perspective is focussed on the traditional four-person game. INVITATION TO THE PUBLIC TO ADD TO THE LIST: A total of 150 teams were identified initially. Subsequently two missed teams have been added so the list now includes 152 teams. There are many other teams across Manitoba’s curling history which also belong on a listing of this nature. Manitoba curling fans are invited to suggest other teams for inclusion. In most cases, the teams are included on this list on the basis of the team’s on-ice success in a single outstanding year OR across a series of years. In the latter case, we have acknowledged that so long as three people remained on a team from a previous recorded success – then it was still the same team.

Practice Aptitude Tests.com offer industry standard employer psychometric tests designed for graduates & professionals seeking careers in: banking, accountancy, finance, law, engineering, business, marketing & similar. Numerical Reasoning tests demonstrate a candidates ability to deal with numbers quickly and accurately. These tests contain questions that assess your knowledge of ratios, percentages, cost and sales analysis, rates, trends and currency conversions. Verbal Reasoning tests require you to read short passages of writing and then answer questions assessing their comprehension of the text. Rather than evaluating your vocabulary or fluency, these tests assess your ability to think constructively. Diagrammatic reasoning questions are designed to assess your logical reasoning ability. The questions measure your ability to infer a set of rules from a flowchart or sequence of diagrams and then to apply those rules to new situation. Situational Judgment Tests (SJTs) assess how you approach situations encountered in the workplace. They test your suitability for a particular role. Our test experts have identified 8 key competencies which are essential to get ahead of the competition. List of professions From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search A profession has two fundamental cores: (1) the art practiced is helpful to others; and (2) the persons so engaged in that art govern the practice in a way that is primarily for the public good[citation needed]. Professions include:[1][2] Accountants An accountant is a practitioner of accountancy or accounting, which is the measurement, disclosure or provision of assurance about financial information that helps managers, investors, tax authorities and others make decisions about allocating resources.
