But Lillian eventually persevered and went into nurses’ training at a local hospital and then into the government–sponsored nurse cadet program during World War II. But life was to take a new twist when friends Alice and Myrtle introduced Lillian to Myrtle’s brother Archie Monson, a veteran who was a farmer at heart. He and Lillian were married, and she became a farm wife near Harlan, Iowa. Life there began with no running water and heating wash water on a cook stove. Lillian, who had saved some money, soon turned the farmhouse into a home with hot and cold running water. She learned all aspects of farm living. Children Tyrus and Paula came along in 1949 and 1951, respectively. Life was complicated by Ty and Paula contracting polio. The family moved temporarily to Florida to aid in their recuperation. Photo provided by Lillian Monson Paula recovered completely, but Ty was left with some paralysis. Son, Tom, was welcomed in 1960.

Lillian A sweeping sunset after several cold, snowy days also had two board positions during her tenure with the club, and in her honor the club named one of their routes “Lillian’s Fern Trail”. Family moved away, and Lillian eventually felt the need to consider a senior community. Her first introduction to La Posada was as a resident at La Hacienda while recovering from a broken femur and partial hip replacement. That injury, unfortunately, made it difficult to hike. But when Lillian moved to La Posada in 2011 she soon developed more interests. She expanded her fascination with photography and computers, and began contributing articles and photos to the Resort Report. La Posada trips were fodder for her pen and digital camera (later her iPad). Photos of the trips turned into smile boxes Dog and Daisies (a computer program that allows you to tell a story with photos and music) for her friends and family. Through devices classes, she was able to become an expert with the iPad. These days, Lillian has much to be happy about. She has five grandchildren and a new great grandchild, Peter, in whose honor she has been creating more smile boxes. Due to her ready smile and friendly manner, her circle of friends is ever widening. She is a dynamic example of the creative, energetic residents who help make La Posada very special.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

Older girls will meet with aerospace and aviation college representatives who will provide guidance on mapping their future to be career ready. As an extra special treat, the girls will be blown away by having lunch with Patty Wagstaff.

  • Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’S Note to Flightlab Students
    Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’s Note to Flightlab Students The collection of documents assembled here, under the general title “Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight,” covers a lot of ground. That’s because unusual-attitude training is the perfect occasion for aerodynamics training, and in turn depends on aerodynamics training for success. I don’t expect a pilot new to the subject to absorb everything here in one gulp. That’s not necessary; in fact, it would be beyond the call of duty for most—aspiring test pilots aside. But do give the contents a quick initial pass, if only to get the measure of what’s available and how it’s organized. Your flights will be more productive if you know where to go in the texts for additional background. Before we fly together, I suggest that you read the section called “Axes and Derivatives.” This will introduce you to the concept of the velocity vector and to the basic aircraft response modes. If you pick up a head of steam, go on to read “Two-Dimensional Aerodynamics.” This is mostly about how pressure patterns form over the surface of a wing during the generation of lift, and begins to suggest how changes in those patterns, visible to us through our wing tufts, affect control. If you catch any typos, or statements that you think are either unclear or simply preposterous, please let me know. Thanks.
