Beatles Fans
Beatles fans here at the lyrics to Get Back. Talks about "Thought she was a woman but she was another man...!" Wonder our parent didn't want us listening to this stuff. Just liked the music. We need to take a step back? Just wondering and asking for guidance about things. Never really listened and heard. http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/beatles/get+back_10026516.html

The Formal Niche dancing to the formal tune of formal wear never goes out of style! Have a use/need? The Formal Niche can help you out and our community in this new venture and service it as well.!
My niece Courtney Mallo Hedrick and business partner have started a formalconsignment store in Yukon, OK where I live. The store is five minutes away.
How long has she been thinking about this store. I suppose since all of us women are children we might dream of this store in a way. All the long formal gowns and bridal gowns. Bridal is the key. Cinderella with a different ending. IMAGINE WEARING all those gowns! Courtney and her partner have decided to weave the Cinderella fantasy into a different direction. OH can they dream.
Think about this. The Formal Niche! They know their audience and have plenty of years or experience in the business. Courtney has close to fifteen years in bridal shops, and going to work/help on shoots. They call her back often to help in this area.
Helping her with w business plan in a way was an ouch for me. I didn’t mean to stir her up but her passion leached out. She knows the business. I brought out answers. I told her that is what the SBA needs to know. They need to know what you will do and how you will run it.
The answers were quite remarkable answers that showed an old aunt with business knowledge and the ability to knock on a few heads that have made millions in business. The process was ouch, because it hit on nerves at times. The result was a way to pull the needed information from her and out of her. It taught me a few things in my thinking process I plan to use when starting my business.
One, she looked for a niche. There are few if any consignment formal wearonly stores in business in Oklahoma. Some say it is a first. I am sure she is right. Second, saw a void and how to fill it. Next she realizes this is a dual service to a community why promoting a business as a woman owner.
The void she feels is the need for such formal wear to be in the market at a decent price. The business allows for those needing money to sell a product often used one and forgotten or left to die on a hanger. This does justice to the formal wear, provides community asset utilization as a resource at the best and shows that good olde American Know-How putting together a winning combination.
Give them a look this Christmas Season and a review for Prom Season. It will go easier on the pocketbook too!

Mom's and dad's don't forget a free download activity book at the site http://creeandscooter.com/. It is on the Home menu at the very top. I understand there is Cree and Scooter TV. It may be isolated to Canada. Mom's with Christmas coming there are products out there for little girls. Again check out the home page. Stumble around and browse. Christmas time is made for that. This way your feet won't hurt as much. Feel lucky, not that I don't love my Tanner man, but all women love shopping for little girls.
Cree and Scooter are partners in many noble causes which you can read about on the page also. Ms. Sutton-Brown has plenty of Social Capital to bankroll some free advertisement which she deserves being socially responsible in her endeavors. Below is posted her biography.
"WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) veteran and two-time All Star, Tammy Sutton-Brown was born in Ontario, Canada. Being a professional basketball player has opened Tammy’s world to experience a host of different countries and cultures.
"WNBA (Women’s National Basketball Association) veteran and two-time All Star, Tammy Sutton-Brown was born in Ontario, Canada. Being a professional basketball player has opened Tammy’s world to experience a host of different countries and cultures.
Tammy believes that exposure to various culture, languages, traditions, and values
enhances the quality of life. Her passion for travel and learning about what
different countries and cultures have to offer is the inspiration behind Cree and
Scooter. “My vision is to implement global education at an early age through Cree
and Scooter. I want kids to be able to travel around the world without leaving the
comfort of their home, school, city or country, engaging their imagination and
sparking their interests.”
“When you read, your world opens up. I want to encourage early literacy for kids, ignite a love for travel and exploration and form an appreciation for the world we live in, its languages, cultures and history. It is my belief that global exposure will enhance the lives of others beginning with our kids. Our world has changed and is continuing to change with the people from all around the world playing and living together, as well as attending the same schools. Kids will be in good hands with Cree and Scooter.“

FIVE NEW GREAT RESOURCES FOR AUTISM AND SPECIAL NEEDS/http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=236486233004087583#allposts
This Blog Post will be short and to the point. I will basically give a quick summary of each resources and how it is available. The biggest share are available in a PDF on the net. I can explain the content and list the PDF name exactly. I think the names are exact but if not they are close enough for you to find them in order to obtain the resource yourself. I cannot by law copy them and give them to you. If I could I would copy them here and make them easily for you to copy
The first PDF is titled “The Future of Children with Disabilities,” from http://www.futureofchildren.org. It is volume 22 Number 2 Spring 2012. It contains a number of articles within the PDF; ranging from and introduction on disabilities and the future to emerging technologies.
My next pick to place in this mix is on self advocacy and determination. There is the National Gateway sight and resources; twitter handle @gatewaytosd, facbook is gatewaytosd and Utube GagewaytoSD. I can’t speak with certainty about Utube having videos on self advocacy and determination. However, I am pretty certain that Gateway has videos about this topic. The PDF title to look for on the net is 2011_issues1_selfd_selfa.pdf. It deals with advocacy and determination on many levels. The publishers are National Training Institute on Self Determination. As I stated before there are many other resources on the National Gateway and Self Determination site at http://www.ngsd.org/.
Here I want to point out the great tool graphic organizers are for teaching to those that lean to the visual learning mode. They can be a great tool for many children tool. Look at these terms and places listed below or put in a search engine to reveal many free resources for graphic organizers. Many can make there own with the word processing software on their computer. The part that deals with accounting or graphic to make tables. There are those that say shapes that can be used to make your own graphic organizer to tailor your mapping of content. But see below for more;
- Freeology is a place where you can get free graphic organizers
- Rubistar
- or putt graphic organizers in any search engine to reveal more sources of free organizers. You may have sign up for a free newsletter but I consider that a small price to pay. It is up to you.
I want to bring a term to you called Project Based Learning. See this site for a free articlehttp://www.edutopia.org./user185983.edia/profile. Students basically are applying learning to real world applications or doing case studies. I think this is great for all students but specifically for students with disabilities. Grants from Youth Service America and Service Learning are available for teachers to apply as well as other nonprofits and areas.
The next to PDF’s are a result of a ten year study by The National Autism Center’s National Standard’s Report. They deal with best practices in education in healthcare. The one on healthcare can be download by a family touched by autism I believe. The one one on education is free to teachers, educators and maybe homeschoolers. At least this is my understanding. Please read all the declarations and instructions on all the sites and follow the rules. And below are the exact PDF names of the reports:
- NAC EdManuel1_Finalpdf
- NAC NSPReport_FINPDF
I know these will be of great to use to families, teachers, providers and others working with or associated with autism and special needs.
