  • To Grad, From
    To Grad, From Dad Daniel John On Friendship When I was in the eighth grade, I told my mom and dad that “basically” I knew the basics of life. I knew how to read, write, do math, find things in a library, talk, clean up for myself, some basic cooking skills and the life skill of dialogue and discussion. You know, I was right. Everything that I have learned since the eighth grade has been a deeper and wider explanation of what I have learned. The problem is that the lessons of life get much more painful each time you have to learn…or relearn…one of them. As I look back over my life, I also realize that the best friends I ever had in many ways were my friends from the neighborhood and school in the eighth grade. My friends at this time knew me. Now, certainly this will be true the rest of my life…but I mean “knew me” in a much more basic way. They knew the color of my house, the mess of my bedroom, the names of all my siblings, what my dad did and the chores I was expected to do. They understood my family’s Christmas traditions and what we did on Thanksgiving because they usually spent some time with me on those days. They knew my teachers and my imitations of my teachers. They attended my church, St. Veronica’s, and we played before and after Mass. They traveled with me to games and functions. We played together, we prayed together.

  • Bulletin Yule Log(Istics)
    Frontier Economics Bulletin Water Energy Environment Retailing Transport Financial services Healthcare Telecoms Media Present values Competition policy Policy analysis and design Regulation Strategy Contract design and evaluation Dispute support services Market design and auctions DECEMBER 2015 Yule log(istics) JUST HOW PRODUCTIVE IS SANTA? Santa’s job of delivering presents to well-behaved children across the globe has never been a stroll in the North Pole. But an explosion in demand for his presents in recent years – combined with dwindling reindeer populations – has made it a serious sleigh-ride. Have satellite navigation, delivery drones and "click and collect" turned Santa into a retail revolutionary? For most youngsters, excitement at the imminent arrival of Santa Claus is more than enough to induce a sleepless Christmas Eve. But the more business-minded of them may also be kept awake by some worrying questions about logistics. How on earth can Santa reach every town in the world in a single night, even with the aid of a flying sleigh and a team of highly-motivated reindeer? And if that was difficult enough in the past, isn’t it simply impossible in the highly- populated modern world? 2 Frontier Economics | December 2015 The economists at Frontier have been worrying about this, too. In the technical jargon, Santa faces a "constrained optimisation problem". He has to deliver goodies to as many households as he can – all over the world – and has a fixed amount of time in which to do so – from late Christmas eve to Christmas morning. However, while the time constraint remains stubbornly fixed (using time zones to the limit, 33 hours1) in the last half-century the number of children aged 14-or-under certainly has not: it's increased by more than 60%.

  • January 2010
    A publication of the Academic Year in America Program Connections is a biannual newsletter comprised of memorable stories submitted by AYA students, host parents, and Local Coordinators across the USA. The articles and photos inside represent the unique cultural experiences enjoyed by AYA participants nationwide. New Orleans: Cruising Down the Mississippi By Emily Barberena Local Coordinator January 2010 Meridian, MS We spent the first weekend in December in New Orleans and we had a blast! We rode an old fashioned paddleboat (behind us in the picture) down the Mississippi River, walked through the Arts and French Quarter districts, ate beignets at “Cafe du Monde”, jambalaya, muffelatas, po’boys,(and much more!), walked the legendary Bourbon Street and saw many different kinds of regional music, like cajun, creole, jazz and blues, plus caught some bead in a haunted hotel (according to rumors-we are all fine!), shopped and necklaces from the balconies. We heard a jazz finished up with a trip to the Audobon Aquarium of the Americas and an and blues set at “Preservation Hall”, stayed IMAX film on Hurricane Katrina and the wetlands. China: A Host Parent’s Perspective We are the Stephenson-Skaff family living in Charleston, West Virginia. We started our adoption process in 2004 in anticipation of just having one child. Instantly we fell in love with the Chinese culture that has led us to adopting 2 additional daughters in December 2006 and April 2009. Our hearts led us to keeping the children’s heritage alive in their American life, so we have had the pleasure of hosting an exchange student from China, Wang BingYing through AYA.
