    DELIVERY OF INSTRUCTION California Baptist University expects to deliver instruction to its students through its traditional in-person and online formats. By attending the University, students acknowledge this expectation and understand that the University may be compelled to modify course instruction formats due to circumstances or events beyond the University’s reasonable control such as acts of God, acts of government, war, disease, social unrest, and accidents.

    Adoption STAR is a not-for-profit adoption agency in New York, Ohio and Florida. The agency firmly believes that post adoption contact (open adoption), when appropriate, is what’s best for all parties involved, especially the children. Open adoption visits between adoptive families and birth families should be a time to celebrate the adoption journey and create relationships. These visits can be as simple as a picnic in the park or going swimming at a local pool, to theme parks and adventures. Below you will find an extensive list of open adoption visit ideas for that have been suggested by Adoption STAR clients and staff members in specific areas in New York, Ohio and Florida.

  • Mistrzowie Świata Triumfują W Wiśle! Data Publikacji: 15.07.2017 8:00
    wiadomości Mistrzowie Świata triumfują w Wiśle! Data publikacji: 15.07.2017 8:00 To był piękny wieczór dla polskiej reprezentacji, która w składzie Piotr Żyła, Kamil Stoch Dawid Kubacki oraz Maciej Kot w pięknym stylu zwyciężyła w piątkowym konkursie drużynowym podczas FIS Grand Prix Wisła 2017. Podopieczni Stefana Horngachera potwierdzili swoją dominację z poprzedniego sezonu i o ponad 12 punktów pokonali drużynę Norwegii. Podium uzupełnili zawodnicy z Niemiec, którym ostatnim skokiem trzecie miejsce zapewnił Stephan Leyhe. Polska ekipa rozpoczęła nowy sezon od pewnego zwycięstwa w konkursie drużynowym podczas piątkowych zawodów FIS Grand Prix w Wiśle. Na starcie zawodów stanęło łącznie 13 krajów. Rywalizację w zespole biało- czerwonych rozpoczął Piotr Żyła, który lądował na 117 i 127 metrze. W drugiej grupie zawodników reprezentował nas Kamil Stoch. Dwukrotny mistrz olimpijski w pierwszym skoku wylądował na 128 metrze, natomiast w serii finałowej uzyskał 124,5 metra. - Dzisiaj każdy z nas zrobił dobrą pracę. Znaczy Dawid i Maciek dzisiaj nadrabiali te punkty, ale tak powinno być: jeżeli jest dwóch bardzo mocnych zawodników, którzy są w naprawdę dobrej dyspozycji, wtedy wystarczy, że reszta zrobi swoje i odda dobre skoki - chwali kolegów Kamil Stoch. Jako trzeci na belce w polskiej ekipie usiadł Dawid Kubacki. 27-latek był dzisiaj najmocniejszym punktem naszej drużyny, dwukrotnie wygrywając rywalizację w swojej grupie. Podopieczny Stefana Horngachera skakał dzisiaj 130 oraz 133,5 metra. - Po konkursie mam pozytywne odczucia. Pogoda pozwoliła nam rozegrać całkiem fajny i emocjonujący konkurs do samego końca. Jestem zadowolony z wykonanej pracy swojej i kolegów, dlatego myślę, że można bardzo pozytywnie podsumować ten dzisiejszy dzień -ocenia Dawid Kubacki.

  • Breakfast Buffet
    MAKAHIKI – THE BOUNTY OF THE ISLANDS BREAKFAST BUFFET Signaled by the rising of the constellation Makali‘i in the night sky, Makahiki is the annual Hawaiian harvest festival, marked each year by the ancients—and more recently revived on O‘ahu as a season of celebration and bounty. Makahiki is a season of peace spanning four lunar phases from late October-early November to late February-early March—a time when offerings are made . work ceases . and peace prevails. The story of the Makahiki Festival comes to life inside the buffet restaurant in a series of elegantly composed, jewel-toned murals, which depict scenes of feasting, games and celebration.
