Best. Summer. EVER Best. Summer. EVER. Welcome to Day Camp! On behalf of Girl Scouts San Diego, welcome to an exciting and meaningful day camp summer! Whether you are new to Girl Scout day camp or are a seasoned expert, we hope this will be an unforgettable experience for you. The hundreds of girls you will encounter this summer will have the opportunity of a lifetime, because of your com- mitment to camp. This booklet is your ticket to camp. In it you’ll find information about when and where to arrive, staff training, what to expect. Please read through this information carefully as you will be responsible for its contents. You will bring your experience, knowledge, skills and passion to our team of commit- ted individuals. Together, we’ll make a difference in the lives of hundreds of girls. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. We look forward to working with you this summer! Sincerely, The Day Camp Team Campers and Camp Who are our campers? . Camp serves girls entering grades K-12 in a variety of different programs. Most of the campers are already Girl Scouts, but many are brand new to Girl Scouting. The majority of our campers are from San Diego, but we have a few from around the United States or other countries. 25-35% of our campers attend more than one camp during the summer. 15-20% of our campers receive some sort of financial assistance to attend camp. What kind of programs are offered at camp? A variety of themes and activities—from horseback riding to fashion design— offering something fun for every girl. Camper-Staff Interactions . Camp is for the camper. Focus primarily on serving campers. When they’re hap- py engaged and safe, you’ll have more fun, too! . Model mutual respect for each individual as you empathetically listen and sensi- tively respond. Be especially gentle when backgrounds or abilities are different . Camp is to be a safe place, physically and emotionally. Guard your campers in all ways. 3 Day Camp Organization Chart Program Director Jen Nation (619) 610-0726 Directs all outdoor program and program support, including day and resident camps.

ACA HR.14 8 Information to Share with Campers on the First Day Staff reviews the following with campers on the first day. Campers will follow the staff’s example so be a good role model. Our Camp Community . Introduce the staff and explain roles. Explain the day’s schedule. Play name games to learn everyone’s names. Be sure they know where the bathroom is, and to let you know when they need to use it. Explain where things are kept in the unit. Silence signal – we raise our hand for silence. Make sure everyone observes this sign, in- cluding staff. You may miss an important announcement. Campers must keep their unit area neat. Keep belongings together. Make sure they are aware that you are here for them. Assure them that you will listen to their needs and fears. Above all, make them feel secure and that they are going to have a fun session. Safety Rules . Buddy system means you always take a buddy with you. Explain who a buddy is. No running along paths – it is safer to walk wherever you go. Wear sunscreen, even on cloudy days and wear a hat. Swimming suit tops are worn only at the pool. Hats are encouraged. Hats should be removed at flag ceremonies. Do not share hats, bandanas, combs or brushes, etc. Closed toe/heel shoes and socks must be worn at all times. They prevent many minor inju- ries, blisters and sore feet. Drink lots of water. Often headaches and stomachaches are the result of not enough water. No climbing on trees or buildings. Wash hands before eating and after using the restroom or petting animals. Go over risk area precautions, such as no campers are allowed near waterfront, horses or playground equipment without a staff member. Stay with the group. Ask permission from the counselor if you and your buddy need to run an errand.

  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

Introduction Miscommunications, misconceptions and misunderstandings are a common part of everyday human interaction. People, despite their desires to communicate successfully, misunderstand each other’s words, silences, gestures or other social actions many often times. Such incidents not only keep happening between interlocutors having different language and culture backgrounds, but also between fellows, spouses, grown-ups and children, medical doctors and their patients, and teachers and their students off and on. Tzanne (2000: 1) is of the view that such misunderstandings may have trivial, entertaining, unpleasant and even catastrophic consequences.

As algorithms become more refined, what will that mean for editorial playlists?

  • Investigations on Low-Valent Group 8 and 9
    INVESTIGATIONS ON LOW-VALENT GROUP 8 AND 9 METALLORADICALS Thesis by Ayumi Takaoka In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, CA 2012 (Defended January 17, 2012) ii © 2012 Ayumi Takaoka All Rights Reserved iii Acknowledgments I would like to first and foremost thank my research advisor, Professor Jonas C. Peters, for taking me into his group in 2007 and advising me throughout my graduate career. In addition to being a truly brilliant principle investigator, Jonas has always been incredibly patient in teaching me the fundamental process of research, and I am extremely grateful for this. As previous graduates of this research group have also stated, much of my scientific thought process operates according to how I believe Jonas would proceed in solving difficult problems. Indeed, I believe that I have been able to conduct research most efficiently by thinking about the types of questions Jonas would ask during our group meetings. Simply put, I could not have asked for a better advisor. Jonas also gave me the opportunity to pursue my graduate studies at two of the best research institutions in the world, for which I feel very fortunate. This unique experience gave me a chance to work at two very distinct environments and provided me with the confidence in taking an industrial position in Japan, which is a place where I have not lived for over 13 years and expect to be quite different from both MIT and Caltech. Professors Dick Schrock and Theo Agapie were the chairs of my thesis committee at MIT and Caltech, respectively.

  • WRESTLING with OR EMBRACING DIGITIZATION in the MUSIC INDUSTRY the Contrasting Business Strategies of J-Pop and K-Pop
    Parc & Kawashima / Wrestling with or Embracing Digitization 23 WRESTLING WITH OR EMBRACING DIGITIZATION IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY The Contrasting Business Strategies of J-pop and K-pop Jimmyn Parc Seoul National University and Sciences Po Paris [email protected] Nobuko Kawashima Doshisha University [email protected] Abstract Digitization has significantly changed the process for producing and consuming music: from analogue to digital, albums to songs, possess to access, audio to visual, and end products to promotional products. In this globalized digital era, actively embracing digitization would likely help enhance the competitiveness of the music industry. The rise of K-pop and the decline of J-pop clearly demonstrate the different results from whether to embrace or wrestle with digitization. The Korean music industry recognized changes brought on by digitization earlier and was more active in responding with effective strategies. By contrast, the Japanese music industry did not immediately respond to these changes but stuck to its rent-seeking behavior in order to take advantage of its larger market size and ‘sophisticated’ copyright regime. The implications from this paper is that business activities are the core element for creating and enhancing competitiveness of the music industries.
