Cash Flow Problem

“Honey, you have to tell me how we are spending our money”, said the wife to her husband. “I should know about these things.”

“Fine”, said the husband. “we are spending 25 percent on rent, 20 percent on the kids, 30 percent on food, 15 percent on clothes, and 40 percent on the cars.”

“But honey, that’s 130 percent.”

Basic Combat Training (BCT) in the US Army


Soldiers in the United States (US) Army are volunteers. The Army trains recruits at basic training units. The main basic training unit is Fort Jackson in South Carolina.

Basic training is nine weeks. The instructors are non-commissioned officers (NCOs). They teach basic military skills, including drill and weapon training.

Recruits in basic training live and sleep in barracks.

They wear a military uniform. They don’t go home during basic training and they don’t see their family before graduation.

'Singing' goat causes giggling fits at Worcester Cathedral service

A goat stole the show during a cathedral's animal blessing service by "singing" along to the organ music. 
Two-year-old Pablo's "bah-rilliant" performance at Worcester Cathedral's annual event has made him a social media star.
His vocals led to fits of giggles by staff from Atwell Farm Park near Redditch and cathedral choir members. 
"I think when he was bleating it was all echoing back at him. He was having a lovely time," farm staff said. 
The video of Pablo and his alpaca friends Minstrel and Barnaby was shared by the cathedral on TikTok has since had 1.6m views and 240,000 likes. 
The service was filmed by the BBC's Songs of Praise programme, but it is not clear whether Pablo's exploits will make the final edit.

The exciting technologies revolutionizing firefighting in 2022

    One of the most important tools for a firefighter in the field is the ability to communicate with other members of the crew, officers, and decision-makers. Communication can be the difference between being able to ask for – and receive – help, or being alone as fires move, shift, and change.
  Communication can be the difference between having the latest intelligence and knowledge about what is going on, or being in the dark. Communication is also the difference between having a coordinated, collaborative effort, or having a number of individuals operating independently – which is the least effective way to fight a fire.
    While cellular networks have expanded and improved tremendously – especially in the age of 5G – there are still areas of our country where cellular connectivity and other terrestrial mobile networks aren’t available. There are also some situations where the communications equipment that power terrestrial networks can be damaged in fires, and leave firefighters without connectivity.
    This is why mobile mesh networking will be a widely adopted technology for firefighters and hotshot crews in 2022.
   Mobile mesh networking can enable the use of communications and situational awareness tools – such as ATAK – off the grid in places where other terrestrial networks don’t exist. This means that firefighters will be able to share information and see each other’s locations even in isolated, remote locations. They can also be used to spread connectivity over a wide geographic area and to each individual without a single, centralized piece of equipment that can be compromised and fail. This means they can deliver resilient and redundant communications that is always available to the firefighter.
   Finally, mobile mesh networking can be a low-cost alternative to connecting IoT devices. Instead of each individual sensor requiring its own expensive cellular connection – or incredibly pricey satellite connection – mobile mesh can be used to connect IoT devices over a wide geographic area with no recurring cost. This can help accelerate fire-focused IoT programs, and enable the government to extend them to more areas at a lower cost to the taxpayer.
   Enabling resilient, reliable communications and situational awareness alone is enough to make mobile mesh networking a game-changer for firefighting. But its ability to inexpensively connect IoT devices and sensors that can make firefighting more proactive and less dangerous make mobile mesh technologies essential in 2022.

Q1989755 Inglês

        Language-centered methods are those that seek to provide opportunities for learners to practice preselected linguistic structures through form-focused exercises in class. The assumption is that language practice will ultimately lead to a mastery of the target language and that learners can draw from this formal repertoire whenever they wish to communicate in the target language outside the class. According to this belief, language development is largely intentional rather than incidental; and language learning seen as a linear, additive process.

         Learner-centered methods are those that are principally concerned with language use and learner needs. These methods seek to provide opportunities for learners to practice preselected, presequenced grammatical structures as well as communicative functions (i.e., speech acts such as apologizing, requesting, etc.) through meaning-focused activities. Proponents of learner-centered methods believe in accumulated entities, represented by structures plus notions and functions.

        Learning-centered methods are those that are principally concerned with learning processes. These methods seek to provide opportunities for learners to participate in open-ended meaningful interaction through communicative activities or problem-solving tasks in class. The assumption is that a preoccupation with meaning-making will most likely lead to grammatical as well as communicative mastery of the language and that learners can learn through the process of communication. In this approach, unlike the other two, language development is a nonlinear process and considered more incidental than intentional. Proponents of learningcentered methods believe that language is best learned when the learner’s attention is focused on understanding, saying and doing something with language, and not when their attention is focused explicitly on linguistic features.
