Cub Scouts can find courage as they venture off both lists are applicable!! You could probably list all twelve into the wild blue yonder getting ready for their first flight if you thought about it!! (or anything else for the first time). It takes courage to do something for the first time and to forge new paths looking for knowledge and friends. Know. Memorize the courage steps: Be brave, Be calm, Be clear, and Be careful. Tell why each courage step is important. How will memorizing the courage steps help you to be ready? Commit. Tell why it might be difficult to follow the courage steps in an emergency situation. Think of other times you can use the courage steps. (Standing up to a bully is one example.) Practice.

Eye Juggling: Seeing the World Through a Looking Glass and a Glass Pane. University Press of America: London, and other sources. The Eye Juggler There is an old man, with long, black braids. He stands there, beside that tall cedar tree, singing a song. As he sings that song, what should happen..., his eyes pop out of his head. He continues singing that song and his eyes go up the side of the tree to the top branch. There those eyes look to the east. Then they turn and look to the south. The old man with empty sockets in his head continues that song. From the top of the tree the eyes look to the west. And then the eyes turn once more and look to the north, the fourth direction. As the old man with long, black braids sings that song, who should come along the path there but Coyote, down on his luck. He sees the old man standing there and decides to pay him a visit. He's been out there in those hills a long time. But as Coyote gets a little closer he realizes that there is something odd about this old man. He's seen some strange things out there in those hills but nothing like this. The old man is singing his eyes to the sky! Now Coyote, who's been down on his luck, realizes a good thing when he sees it.

He imagined it looked like haole blood. But it wasn't his or anyone else's. He'd struggled all his life to avoid being labeled a haole. He knew everybody's blood was the same color, though it looked like it could've been spilled from a white man's veins. But the machine didn't bleed, it leaked. Taylor squinted up at the greasy stainless-steel mast of the stand-up fork lift. His forearm shielded his eyes from the drips but blocked his vision, and he brushed the graying blonde strands off his forehead. A tightly banded braid kept his shoulder-length hair from sticking in his moustache and beard like velcro. He rolled his tight neck muscles, shrugged his husky shoulders and stepped out of the machine to get away from the harsh glare of the big halogen light. He figured it must be that hose clamp again.

  • Outside the Box: Creative Ideas for Common Equipment
    Outside the Box: Creative Ideas for Common Equipment Dr. Scott Klungseth, Director Beresford PRCE Thinking Outside-the-Box for Standards: Creative Ideas, Common Equipment Session is designed to help elementary/middle school classroom and PE teachers, and recreation professionals to experience “Out of the Box” activities to integrate hula hoops, scooters, and bean bags in meeting national/state standards. This equipment is common in programs – but many lack experience on how versatile this equipment is. Each activity is designed to help students succeed in all three learning domains. Each lesson has the potential for math, science, or language arts interaction. Many times in conducting professional development sessions for pre-school and elementary teachers, recreation leaders, and physical education teachers they indicate that they have many many hula hoops but do not know how to teach hula hooping or know other activities to use the hoops for. Additionally, they indicate that they have many scooters and noodles available to them but lack activities to integrate them. Below is a series of activities that can be created for general physical activity or specific physical education lessons. Many of which include standards, spelling, reading, and math lesson integrations. These are only basic descriptions. If you would like further lesson ideas please feel free to contact us at: [email protected] Hula Hoop Ring Toss With or without distance math integration This is an oversized ring toss game.

After Dover Air Force Base, the main port for returning remains, released hundreds of government photos of the ceremonies, the Defense Department ordered Thursday that no more photographs be released. In addition, two employees for defense contractor Maytag Aircraft were fi red after the Pentagon complained about a photo of fl ag-draped caskets taken by one of them appeared in the Seattle Times. In March 2003, on the eve of war in Iraq, the Pentagon ordered an end to all media coverage of ceremonies for the returning remains of soldiers killed overseas. Although Dover already had such a policy, the Pentagon action enforced a military-wide ban on images of fl ag-draped caskets that dated from late 2000 but had not been followed. With few exceptions, the ban had remained in force until recent days. But last week, about 350 photos from Dover were released under a Freedom of Information Act request by Russ Kick, a First Amendment advocate who runs a Web site called the Memory Hole (www.thememoryhole.org). Dover had recommended that Kick’s request be denied, but offi cials at Air Mobility Command headquarters at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois authorized the release on appeal.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Burt Rutan Honored with 2015 Wright
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Stephanie Berry 703-416-4888 Ext 104 [email protected] Burt Rutan Honored with 2015 Wright Brothers Memorial Trophy Washington, DC, October 5, 2015 – The National Aeronautic Association (NAA) is pleased to announce that Burt Rutan has been selected as the recipient of the 2015 Wright Brothers Memorial Trophy. Established by NAA in 1948 to honor the memory of Orville and Wilbur Wright, the trophy is awarded annually to a living American for “…significant public service of enduring value to aviation in the United States.” Rutan is a world-renown aerospace engineer noted for his originality in designing light, strong, and energy-efficient aircraft. He designed the record-breaking Voyager, which was the first plane to fly around the world without stopping or refueling, and the sub-orbital spaceplane Spaceship One, which became the first privately funded spacecraft to enter the realm of space twice within a two-week period. Rutan also has five aircraft on display at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC. “For 40 years Burt has been one of the giants in aerospace development and engineering,” said Jim Albaugh, Chairman of NAA. “So much of his work has had an impact on aircraft design and performance, and he is very worthy of one of the most important awards in aviation.” From 1965 to 1972, Rutan was a civilian flight test project engineer for the United States Air Force at Edwards Air Force Base. He left to become Director of Development of the BD-5 aircraft for Bede Aircraft, a position he held until 1974.

PE provides opportunities for the development of physical, personal, social and intellectual skills, plus it encourages co-operation, positive actions, positive thinking, tolerance and respect for others. PE promotes the undertaking of exercises that can be continued into adulthood as part of a healthy lifestyle. Most children follow a generalised development of movements and skills – a natural progression develops from the simple to the more complex. Initially children learn basic movements within the context of their own body then gradually begin to integrate these movements with one another. PE sessions need to allow for variety
