His legacy is one of passion, storytelling, sport, and freedom. From humble beginnings of living out of a trailer to being called the single greatest influence in the action-sports film industry, Warren © Jones & Bartlett Learning,Miller’s film LLC contributions from the 1950s to© 2004 Jones were important& Bartlett contributions Learning, to the LLCwinter sports NOT FOR SALE OR DISTRIBUTIONculture. His films were widely recognizable asNOT being FOR part documentary SALE OR and DISTRIBUTIONpart comedy. His company, Warren Miller Entertainment (WME), now under new management, continues to produce winter sports movies that are an annual event, often serving as a pep rally for the ski season. Their 69th film is scheduled to be released in the fall of 2018. Miller, born in Hollywood, California, in 1924, took up skiing and surfing as a child. After his discharge from© the Jones Navy in 1946,& Bartlett he bought Learning, a camera and whileLLC living in a trailer in the parking© lotJones of Sun Valley& Bartlett Learning, LLC ski resort, began to film his friend Ward Baker and himself in an effort to improve their skiing technique (“In NOTMemoriam”).

Before long, Miller had pieced together a full-length feature and would be touring in 130 cities a year. In reference to his prolific career, Miller wanted to “tell stories and have the film to back it up.” It was a “labor of love” for Miller, whose first experience on snow was transformational. “It was total freedom but absolutely no control over it.” (Channel, 2012) In the years that followed, © Jones & Bartlett Learning, LLC © Jones & Bartlett Learning, LLC NOT FOR SALE OR DISTRIBUTION NOT FOR SALE OR (DISTRIBUTIONcontinues) 1 © Jones & Bartlett Learning, LLC.

The filmmaker and ski icon was committed to his unique craft of documenting ski culture, its evolving action, and, of course, humor. His recognizable monotone voice and dry wit created a pallet © Jonesfor which & Bartlett skiing, nature, Learning, and freedom LLC could be experienced through film.© DespiteJones his &wide Bartlett recognition, Learning, LLC NOT FORmore than SALE 500 film OR credits, DISTRIBUTION and many awards, Warren Miller was never inNOT the Academy FOR of SALE Motion PictureOR DISTRIBUTION and Sciences. A close friend explained, “Warren, they don’t think you make “real” movies.” To which Miller responded, “...I don’t.” (Galbraith, 2018) Doing things Warren’s way was as much about being headstrong as it was about telling the story. At a time when corporate sponsors, big budgets, and larger staff were the norm, Miller focused on small budgets, intimate relationships, and family. At one point, as Miller © Jones & Bartlettdescribes Learning, it, after LLCbecoming frustrated with partners© and Jones the lack of & meaningful Bartlett relationships, Learning, he sold LLC the company to his son yet remained active in the company for another 15 years (Galbraith, 2018).

  • Common Errors in English by Paul Brians [email protected]
    Common Errors in English by Paul Brians [email protected] http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/ (Brownie points to anyone who catches inconsistencies between the main site and this version.) Note that italics are deliberately omitted on this page. What is an error in English? The concept of language errors is a fuzzy one. I'll leave to linguists the technical definitions. Here we're concerned only with deviations from the standard use of English as judged by sophisticated users such as professional writers, editors, teachers, and literate executives and personnel officers. The aim of this site is to help you avoid low grades, lost employment opportunities, lost business, and titters of amusement at the way you write or speak. But isn't one person's mistake another's standard usage? Often enough, but if your standard usage causes other people to consider you stupid or ignorant, you may want to consider changing it. You have the right to express yourself in any manner you please, but if you wish to communicate effectively you should use nonstandard English only when you intend to, rather than fall into it because you don't know any better. I'm learning English as a second language. Will this site help me improve my English? Very likely, though it's really aimed at the most common errors of native speakers. The errors others make in English differ according to the characteristics of their first languages. Speakers of other languages tend to make some specific errors that are uncommon among native speakers, so you may also want to consult sites dealing specifically with English as a second language (see http://www.cln.org/subjects/esl_cur.html and http://esl.about.com/education/adulted/esl/).

Administrators of programs are typically assigned the task of operationalizing the changes required by the accreditation process, which frequently entails concerns surrounding education outcomes or the assessment of student learning. This qualitative descriptive study sought to better understand the lived experiences of chiropractic education program administrators from leading change in assessment practice, as the result of implementing recommendations from the accreditation process.
