PLEASE SHARE! A journey of an Aunt with Alzheimer's disease, family dynamics, legal, financial, emotional and care giving challenges. A legal guardianship was required because the family could not agree on the care of my Aunt and the management of her finances.
My Aunt passed away one year ago January 10, 2017. I managed her care and questioned the exorbitant legal fees over the years. For Sixteen years I faced numerous challenges with the quality of her care and trying to keep her expenses down. In the meantime, the lawyers were charging THOUSANDS of DOLLARS YEARLY for the annual accounting and basic court filings that were the same year after year. In the end, it cost my Aunt's Estate over $500,000.00 for legal fees. A year ago, the journey continued with more frustration and dishonesty from the bank and lawyers...finally, six months after Aunt Sara's death, I hired Hilda Porro https://www.hildaporrolaw.com/ PA and Ron Denman http://www.bleakleybavol.com/denman.html in order to close the guardianship and move through the probate. After all of these years, I'm finally in the care of LAWYERS with INTEGRITY. I would highly recommend both Hilda, Ron and Lori McKee, P.A. my accountant who has been amazing support since the moment I brought my Aunt to live near me sixteen years ago.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Anthropology 102, Gisel's Quinceanera
1. NOTHING’S BETTER
THAN A
QUINCEANERA.
Denise Mejia
Anthropology 102
Dr. Leanna Wolfe
November 20,2010
2. THE DRESS.
This is Gisel’s dress and
bouquet for her special day.
Traditionally for
Quinceaneras, girls wear
white dresses to represent
their innocence.
Before putting the dress
and shoes on, Gisel had to
wake up early to get her hair
and make-up done. This is
usually the first day that
girls are allowed to start
wearing make-up because
they are now considered
adults.
3. GETTING READY.
In this picture Gisel is
getting help from her mom
to get dressed. During a
Quinceanera a mother is
always the one that gets her
daughter dressed. She is the
key element to the
Quinceanera because she
oversees the party planning,
the food, the dress and all
the other little details. With
the help of relatives, the
mother is usually the one
that makes the Quinceanera
possible.
4. THE PARENTS.
These two are the parents of
Gisel. They are the ones that
decided to have a Quinceanera
for her. Gisel did not want one
at first because she thought
that it would of been a waste of
money. Her parents decided to
throw her one because they
thought it was an important
aspect of their culture, every
girl in their family had had one
before. They felt as if Gisel
would of regretted not having
one. After seeing the whole
party and mass, Gisel couldn’t
of been happier that her
parents did let her have a
Quinceanera.
5. AND THE CHURCH
BEGINS.
When everyone arrives at
the church, the guests go
inside and take a seat while
Gisel, her parents,
godparents, and
chambelan(escort) line up
outside so they could make
their entrance.
Gisel’s chambelan is the
first one to enter the
church, followed by the
people holding the gifts,
followed by her godparents,
and finally Gisel is escorted
inside by her parents.
6. THE PRAYER.
During the mass, the father
asks Gisel to read an
excerpt from the bible that
reflects what she has been
through up to that point in
her life. He also has her
renew her faith in God, and
Gisel without a doubt does
it. As the mass continued
the father made sure that
Gisel understood what she
was saying as she renewed
her faith. He also explained
what being an adult meant
and what she had to do to
continue being on the right
path.
7. FLOWERS FOR MARY.
During the mass there is a
certain section that is
dedicated to leaving the
Virgin Mary a bouquet of
flowers. During this time
Gisel is accompanied by
her parents and the
person who gave her the
flowers and goes up to the
Virgin Mary to leave her
the flowers. Once she has
offered them to her, they
all say the prayer, ‘Hail
Mary’ five times and she
also gives thanks to the
Virgin.
8. THE END OF THE
CHURCH.
At the end of the mass,
instead of Gisel being
escorted out by her parents,
she was escorted out by her
chambelan. The chambelan
is a representation of the
father acknowledging the
fact that his daughter is
now an adult and she is not
able to date, although most
fathers are never okay with
their daughters dating at
any age. In Gisel’s case her
chambelan was her cousin,
Gerardo.
9. THE PRESENTATION.
Gisel is being presented
by her father to her guests
now that she has passed
from childhood to
adulthood. This is usually
done to present the new
adult in the family. When
presenting his daughter,
Gisel’s father started in
one corner of the room
and walked her around the
room so everyone can get
a good look at her.
10. THE WALTZ.
One tradition of all
Quinceaneras is the waltz.
Although there are different
waltz the most typical is the
father/daughter waltz, and the
one of the Quinceanera and
her chambelanes and court. At
Gisel’s Quinceanera they
started the waltz off with a
father daughter choreographed
danced. Shortly after Gisel’s
chambelan asked the dad for
permission to cut in and finish
the dance with Gisel.
Following their dance Gisel
danced with her godparents
and anyone else that would of
liked to dance with her.
11. THE TOAST.
Shortly after the waltz,
family and friends make a
toast in honor of the
birthday girl Gisel. They
say what memories
they have with her and
what kind of person she is.
This toast usually happens
right before the dancing
begins. In a way, the toast
sets the tone for the party.
12. THE PARTY.
After the toast was done, the
DJ began to play, from spanish
to techno to hip-hop to reggae
the crowd got up to dance. Not
one minute of the party was
wasted. The birthday girl Gisel,
did not sit down or take a break
throughout the night. She took
advantage of her party and
made sure that everyone else
did because as soon as the
music began to play she went
out into the crowd and began to
pull everyone out to dance,
although most of them did not
last as long as she did.
13. THE CAKE.
This cake was a gift from
one of the friends’s of
Gisel’s mom. During
Quinceaneras family
friends and relatives often
help the parents pay for all
the expenses. They often
give them what they can
with no expectation to get
the money back.
14. THE FINAL
DANCE.
At the end of the
night, Gisel and her
friends ended it
with a traditional
line dance called,
“El Caballo
Dorado.”
