Glenn Singleton, Renowned Author and Leader in Eduacation

Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) February 06, 2012

Glenn Eric Singleton, founder and president of the Pacific Educational Group, will lead the Equity strand of the 2012 School Improvement Innovation Summit, which takes place July 16-17 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Singleton has had a direct impact in improving equity in hundreds of schools across the country. In partnership with Curtis Linton, Singleton wrote the highly acclaimed book Courageous Conversations about Race, which has received numerous accolades, including being named the National Staff Development Council’s 2006 Book of the Year.

“The evidence is dramatic that there is a real disparity in achievement along racial lines,” said Chet Linton, president and CEO of School Improvement Network. “One of the most difficult conversations to have in education is about how racial issues impact the achievement gap. To paraphrase an attendee of the 2011 Summit: ‘Inequity is not a black problem, a white problem, a Hispanic problem, or an Asian problem. It’s a human problem that must be addressed.’ The only way to address this problem is to have a transformation in our thinking and in our attitudes.”

Singleton, who is the foremost expert on interracial dialogue focused on race, racism, and institutionalized racism, will:

    Discuss the subtle, pervasive existence of a predisposition in how we all think and act

    Summarize the data on the effects of racism on student achievement

    Outline the Singleton Courageous Conversations about Race protocol for educators to safely engage in dialogue explicitly focused on race and the experience of students of color in today’s schools

    Teach attendees how to implement the Four Agreements and Six Conditions of Courageous Conversation in their own district

The Innovation Summit is an opportunity for administrators and education leaders to exchange ideas and learn new techniques in professional development, and will feature expert keynote addresses, educational experts, and advanced training on the PD 360 suite. State, district and school leaders are encouraged to share and discuss their most successful strategies in this highly collaborative summit.

“We designed the annual School Improvement Innovation Summit to ensure all participants receive thorough training in the areas where they have the most interest,” added Linton. The Summit is geared toward providing the tested frameworks that accelerate both teacher development and student achievement. Plus, we’ve added a two-day intensive workshop at the end of the Summit—the Common Core Institute—in response to the call for in-depth work sessions on this topic. Dr. Heidi Hayes Jacobs, a nationally recognized expert on the Common Core, will lead the Institute, providing an interactive two-day workshop that provides unique, personalized Common Core training, including an introduction to LiveBook and LivePlanner. Attendees can look forward to four days of unparalleled networking, motivation, and training!”

Register today to take advantage of the early bird discounts for both events at http://www.siis2012.com.

Gambia (PRWEB UK) 3 February 2012

We all deserve a good holiday. Especially these days, when we’re working longer, for less. However, the Family Spending Report published at the end of last year by the Office of National Statistics confirmed that spending on leisure activities such as holidays has decreased. More and more of us are being forced to holiday closer to home, where sunshine is hard to find.

After all, if you’re looking for somewhere with guaranteed sunshine, beautiful beaches, palm trees, and all that a tropical paradise can offer, you have to choose somewhere exotic and expensive; some far flung destination like the Caribbean, or the Maldives, right?

Wrong. There’s a tropical paradise waiting for you, that takes less than six hours to fly too from the UK, where you can enjoy an affordable yet luxurious holiday. Where is this increasingly popular tourist destination? The Gambia, known as ‘The Smiling Coast’. Here you’ll find year-round sunshine, wide sandy beaches, stunning scenery and a warm welcome. Situated on the west coast of Africa, The Gambia is the ideal affordable tropical getaway.

Mustapha Njie, CEO of Taf Gambia Tours, a leading holiday company in The Gambia, has seen a huge increase in holidaymakers over the past few years; “The Gambia is considered to be one of the friendliest places on earth. We have a stable government, a low crime rate, and an excellent infrastructure. Tourists who visit us come back again and again as The Gambia is so easy to get to and very affordable.”

Start planning your holiday in The Gambia

The Gambia offers something for everyone. No matter what your budget you can get a true taste of paradise. You don’t have to stay at an expensive hotel – you can rent a holiday apartment or villa right near the beach. A good place to start is Brufut Gardens, a property development in The Gambia’s most popular tourist resort. Visit http://www.tafgambianproperty.com to find out more.

The Port Nicholson

Boston, MA (PRWEB) January 27, 2012

Sub Sea Research (SSR) spent months searching for the elusive ship, the Port Nicholson, torpedoed by German U-boat U87, June 1942. It took two torpedoes and about 7 hours to sink her. U-87 also fired at the troop ship the “Cherokee,” quickly sinking her with a heavy loss of lives.

The Port Nicholson is a steel-hulled, 481 ft. merchant ship, coal fired freighter built in 1918 at the Tynes & Wear shipyard. She was carrying two special envoy USSR agents overseeing the delivery of a very important Lend-Lease payment from the USSR to USA. She along with 4 other commercial vessels were being escorted by an unusually high number of military ships. The normal ratio at the time was near 1:10 or less but this convoy ratio was 6:5. Maybe it was the fact they were delivering 1,707,000 oz. troy, in 400 oz. bars of platinum. Strangely the two USSR special envoy individuals quickly disappeared after being rescued and brought to American shores. They were not de-briefed like all the other survivors were.

SSR first discovered the Port Nicholson in 600-800 feet of water off Cape Cod in 2008. In 2009 SSR obtained legal recognition from the US Courts as the legal owner and salvager of the ship.

SSR researchers corresponded with individuals manning the ships and even spoke with another U-boat captain who was in the same area. They have talked with survivors and relatives of the men of the Port Nicholson and the Cherokee. One Yarmouth, MA author has written a book and is waiting for “the last chapter” of raising the valuable cargo of the Port Nicholson. These researchers also found declassified documents verifying the cargo as well as the debriefing of the sinking.

According to SSR research, the Port Nicholson and four other ships were being escorted by six military ships in a convoy from Halifax to New York. The Port Nicholson is documented to be carrying ~1,707,000 troy ounces of platinum. It may also contain $ 165M of copper, zinc and war stores. Greg Brooks, one of two SSR founders, said his team has already recovered several identifying and critical artifacts. He has verified that “it is without a doubt the Port Nicholson”.

Late in the summer of 2011, after 100’s of hours of ROV video, they have seen what appear to be bullion boxes containing 4 bars, each being 400 troy ounces of precious metal. “We have seen boxes indicative of those used to store and ship this type of bullion in 1942. Our video clearly shows the box and our inspection class remotely operated vehicles (ROV) could not lift it due to its weight of about 130 lbs.”

A similar discovery occurred in 1981 when the HMS Edinburgh was discovered in the Barents Sea. It too carried a USSR Lend-lease payment. This wreck, in 800 feet of water, took almost three years to salvage in 1981 (Salvage of the Century) and contained $ 100M of gold (1981 prices). Richard Wharton, one of the original salvagers, provided SSR with photos and dimensions of the wooden boxes from the HMS Edinburg containing the gold bullion bars. These wooden bullion boxes were the same type shipped within six weeks of the Port Nicholson. According to Brooks, “We used our manipulator arm to scale our box dimensions. They appear close and almost exactly match the boxes salvaged in 1981. Mr. Wharton’s photos are almost identical to the boxes we have seen on our wreck. We nudged and pushed the boxes with maximum thrust from our ROV. We have verified these boxes have unusually high mass as one would expect for bullion. What is different from the Edinburgh boxes and unique to ours is that ours are very well preserved and do not easily come apart. Things are very well preserved. We even flipped the pages in a book and the pages remained intact. That was amazing to see.”

“We have been working and planning the site since 2009. Our current equipment is just not enough to handle the 2-5 knot currents, mostly zero visibility and the excessive ocean conditions at the site. It takes us 10 hours from Boston Harbor to get to the site. And, conditions such as these leave few and very small windows of onsite time each year in which we can safely work on the site. We certainly underestimated the conditions and maybe over estimated our capacity even with the 214 ft. M/S Sea Hunter and a 95 ft. ship M/S Son Worshipper fully equipped with a sub, ROVs, 125 ton crane, claw and sonar gear.

Photos taken from the HMCS Nanaimo at the time of the sinking show the Port Nicholson bow straight up in the air. She went down straight and slammed to the bottom vertically, stern first at about 30 mph and is now lying on her starboard side. This position, along with the numerous metal, wires, pipes, booms, debris as well as 70 years accumulation of fishing net snags makes access extremely difficult from the deck side. “The holds are not upright and we certainly are not simply going down into the holds with a lift and pulling up the cargo. We may have to cut into the hull to gain access and that is complicated and requires a different tool set. The ship carried war stores thus requiring even greater caution and safety procedures.”

“There is nothing more frustrating for each of our crew, as well as our financial supporters, to see, touch and feel the bullion box and not be able to quickly and simply retrieve it. There is nobody on this earth who wants to bring up that box more than me. We’ve been at it a while now.”

While the ship, M/S Sea Hunter is capable of remaining on-site in almost any weather, SSR has exhausted the capability of the ROV and support equipment. SSR is now entertaining private support from special technical and financial organizations. The operation needs to re-capitalize so that SSR can order or retain a heavy duty state of the art work class ROV, fully outfitted with the tool set to complete the salvage and bring a bar on deck. This specialized equipment costs about $ 2.5M, requires well trained support crews and is capable of lifting heavy loads and has a long build/lease lead time of up to 20 weeks.

“Many marine technology firms are very interested in helping and being part of such an exciting treasure salvage project right in Boston’s back yard. They want to share in this once in life time adventure. And, it has a rich local and national history with a high degree of intrigue.”

“We have spoken with some interesting individuals and some family investment groups who are bored with traditional opportunities. They are certainly tired of the significant swings and losses occurring in the market today. They are most intrigued with the unique sense of history and adventure the Port Nicholson treasure simply from the excitement factor.

“Who wouldn’t want to be a treasure hunter, have a real piece of history (1942 platinum) and be able to say ‘I am a real treasure hunter’. It is every kid’s dream to be a treasure hunter and some adults dream of it too!”

“All we have left to do is get the right equipment to bring up the bars we have seen. 2012 is our year to make this all come to fruition!”

Sub Sea Research LLC (SSR), a Maine company founded in 1994, maintains a fleet of ships and scientific exploration equipment to engage in research, conservation, development and exploration activities around the world aimed at finding, recovering or preserving underwater shipwrecks of special historical and cultural significance.

(PRWEB) January 23, 2012

The big question that comes up regarding winter sports is “When is the ice safe to walk on?” It’s common knowledge that water begins to freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit. However, there is no way to accurately know where and when the water will begin turning to ice when the temperature dips below 32 degrees, and there is no way to accurately predict how thick the ice will get. To say that ice is unpredictable is a grave understatement. Walking on ice should always be taken seriously and with great care.

When coming into contact with ice, whether on a lake, pond, river or similar body of water, it is important to always keep in mind a few safety precautions. One should never go out onto the ice alone, nor consider any ice 100% safe. Areas where the ice has been identified as “safe” for the purposes of ice fishing, skating, etc. have been checked by safety officials as the least dangerous places for these activities, and such activities should never extend beyond the designated safe zones. Any areas that appear to be unsafe or unstable should be reported immediately. Snow-covered ice can be particularly dangerous as snow acts as insulation that can affect the thickness of the ice.

In the event that someone falls through the ice, every effort should be made to remain calm and clothing removal is not recommended. It is recommended that victims having entered the water turn toward the direction of entry, hands should be placed on the unbroken ice surface and feet kicked to push out of the water onto the ice. Ice picks or similar tools can help anchor a point to aid rescue. Once out of the water and on the ice, rolling or sliding across the ice until reaching safety is recommended. Attempts to stand on ice could result in another icy plunge.

“If you plan to go out on ice never go alone and carry some safety supplies with you like rope, webbing or some ice rescue tools.” Said Fire Chief Donald Colarusso, a firefighter with over 24 years experience and one of the nations’ leading suppliers of firefighter gear.

If exiting the water isn’t possible remaining calm to conserve energy and calling for help is the only option. Bystanders that witness someone falling through ice should not attempt go out onto the ice. Calling 911 should be the first step, followed by advising the person in danger as per the instructions above. If possible an attempt can be made to calmly extend a long object toward the victim, such as a tree branch, boat oar, ladder ski or ski pole.

Alternatively, objects like rope, webbing, jumper cables or something similar can be thrown toward a victim. If this isn’t possible waiting for rescue workers is the only other option.

When planning to go out on ice, it is always advisable to have the proper safety gear on hand. Some of the recommended items besides warm clothing that can reduce the dangers associated with ice include a flashlight, personal flotation device (PFD), ice rescue throw bag, ring buoy, ice pick, crampons and/or water-activated flash lights.

All Hands Fire Equipment is a leading supplier of ice rescue gear and water rescue equipment. They are also well known as expert trainers for many commonly used fire tools such as Petzl Exo Firefighter Escape Systems and are suppliers of PPE including Fire Boots and Fire Helmets to Firefighters and Public Safety Officials worldwide.
