Gentle Teaching has inspired me to become a better person

The way I maintain a culture of gentleness at COR is simply being friends with the individuals I serve. When I am supporting, I look at myself as a guest in a friend’s house. I am not there to ‘take charge’ and tell them how they need to be living their lives. Again, I am a friend and a friend will never judge a friend’s decisions. If anything, I would suggest better choices for them just like any other friend would. For example, if one of the individuals I serve wanted to spend their entire pay check on a $200 used game system, I may suggest other options for the reason of helping them manage their money or I may ask nicely how important the game system is to them. From there, they could hopefully tell me that the game system is not important enough that they spend their entire pay check on or they may choose a cheaper option. If not, they buy the game system and we move on. At the end of the day, it is their choice and if that choice makes them happy, that is all that matters.

Gentle Teaching has inspired me to become a better person. I find myself using the Gentle Teaching philosophy in all aspects of my life, which has allowed others to feel more respected and warm when they are around me. My Mother first noticed this in me about two months after I began working for COR. She told me that I had came a long way with my personality and the way I show myself to others. Growing up, I was not the child with the best personality or the child with the most respect toward others. As I get older, I am improving in these things every day. It was nice to hear that from someone who sees me almost every day. I know that I am nowhere near perfect, but some progress is better than none. In the end, anyone can better themselves and no one is ever too old to improve.

All ideas are valued and appreciated

Health and Fitness has always been a passion of mine and I have been trying very hard to promote that within our team. I have taken the lead with healthy grocery shopping and meal planning with the individuals we serve, but I have also been promoting our supports to do the same. When speaking to the team about proper nutrition, I open-the-floor for supports to share their ideas on how to promote a healthy lifestyle as well. All ideas have been valued and appreciated.

I hope to continue to promote health and fitness within our team

The team has come together in encouraging the guys to eat more food in a day and at proper times. I have also made it a priority to have the guys eat as many meals together at the table with their support. It promotes a sense of family and togetherness. I stress the importance of proper nutrition and reduced sugar in our diet. The team has been making better choices with what they buy for foods too.

One of the guys is also taking an interest in his health and he is becoming more internally motivated to keep his body healthy. I cook meals with him every few weeks and then freeze them so he has easy access to healthy and tasty meals that he can warm-up on his own. The rest of our supports have also been taking an initiative in getting him more physically active and eating healthy. I take him to the gym every week and he now looks forward to going and works very hard. My culture of gentleness definitely is reflected in my passion for keeping the individuals we serve physically healthy and happy. I am proud of them for telling me the things they like and don’t like when it comes to healthy meals and being physically active. I am also proud of our supports for being consistent in making health a priority. I hope to continue to promote health and fitness within our team, as it has benefited the overall quality of life with the individuals we serve.

A Conversation with a COR Support…

Describe a place or time where Gentle Teaching has helped you in your personal life.

This hits home to me! I am so blessed to be a part of COR; I have grown so much both within this organization and outside it. I truly saw myself becoming a better person and becoming a role model at home, at school, and at work every day. Gentle Teaching has definitely allowed me to learn more about myself!

I truly saw myself becoming a better person and becoming a role model at home, at school, and at work every day. Gentle Teaching has definitely allowed me to learn more about myself

Tell us about a bond that you or someone close to you shares with someone you support.

I have bonded well with all the individuals I support. When I come to their home for a support time, I feel as though I am invited to be there. Every time I walk into their house, I feel that I am coming home to my family or that I am coming into a house of close friends. I am grateful for the opportunity that COR has provided me to develop the relationships that I currently hold with every individual that I support.

Discuss a scenario where someone you support taught you something.

Recently, one of the individuals I support decided to manage his paycheck and put the money toward future plans and paying his bills. This was a rare occasion because in the past, his paycheck would be gone within a day or two from social outings alone. It was the first time that I had witnessed him making a plan with his paycheck and his willingness to learn to budget his money was amazing. From that moment, he unknowingly taught me that you can always grow and become a better person! It was a humbling experience to be able to see a 31-year-old man literally grow in front of your eyes. He has grown so much since I met him and I can truly say that I’ve watched him grow each day. It’s unbelievable!

It’s amazing to see that the individuals that I support are so passionate about so many things

How has Gentle Teaching transformed the person you are or aspire to be?

Like I mentioned earlier, using the Gentle Teaching approach to supporting individuals has allowed me to become a better person than I had ever imagined. My Mom has mentioned to me a couple times where she sees the growth in me and she was proud of how far I have come. My parents were worried about me when I was in grade 9 and 10 because I had the attitude and the personality of someone who was not capable of success. So for them to be able to witness my character grow so much, it’s a sigh of relief for them for sure.

Describe how you have been able to share one (or some) of your passions with the individuals we serve.

First off, it’s amazing to see that the individuals that I support are so passionate about so many things. Being able to share my passions with the individuals have definitely helped with the friendship that has developed. For example, one of the men and I share a passion for hockey. I know that whenever he is having a rough day, I can always bring up hockey topics and news and we can have a long-lasting conversation about it. There was a moment where he and I were at a Pats game and I remember thinking that our relationship had come a long way since we met. The Pats scored a goal, I looked over and he had a huge smile on his face and he ‘fist pumped’ full of excitement. He never does this! This truly was a special moment. It touched my heart to see how joyful he was to be experiencing the Pats playoff run with me.

Jason, COR Support

I try to create a culture or atmosphere where the idea of support doesn’t exist.

I am creating a culture of gentleness with the woman I support slowly. Gaining trust between each other was, and still is, difficult not only for her to trust me, but also for me to trust her. Something that I think that is unique that I have done is to never treat her differently than I would treat anyone else I care about. I talk to her like she is no different! For lack of better terms, I’m not afraid to be myself. I have created a relationship with her where I can treat her like a friend. This is because I like to help people. It’s in my nature to try to make people happy. I slowly but surely developed genuine care for her.

By creating a comfortable environment and creating that comfortability you can then slowly begin to stretch that zone, and shape it to a bigger and broader comfort zone and I believe that, that is a key to growth. I also think that gentle teaching is growth. I believe in walking beside someone, and holding their hand. Not following behind them and allowing them to go where ever they wish, as that can sometimes be harmful to people unknowing or unaware of their true desires or what it is that truly makes them happy. Also not walking in front and forcing or pulling in a direction that may not be fully desired. Together and side by side you can guide, not force or follow but guide. I try to guide the woman I support. I try to allow her to be her 41 year old self, whose loving and caring and a truly genuine good person and guide that to create more of her wonderful growth. I think walking in front of her would not be as beneficial if any benefit. Walking behind her would also not benefit, because everyone who has ever lived on earth needed or needs a hand every now and then.

I try to create a culture or atmosphere where the idea of support doesn't exist

I try to create a culture or atmosphere where the idea of support doesn’t exist. I think that when activities are changed, and adapted to minimize or remove limitations and the focus is on abilities and effort than disability no longer exists. I want her to feel free. It should always feel like friends are over for her, and for us it should never feel like a job. Although it is a job and we do have duties I try always to implement a lesson in what we do so that when we’re done she has not only had a great experience with her friends, but also gained a lesson and learnt something that will allow her to grow which is our goal. Being with her is very important. Even when she is feeling down or sad, and may not want to talk.

Presence is how I show her I care. That no matter what, I’m still here and I got your back. I allow her to run her house as if it is her own, because it is her space and she should feel that she has control over it because in turn that allows her comfort levels to raise. Every person deserves the right to feel comfortable in their space of living. In the space they call home.

Sometimes it’s hard for me to do what I need to do. Helping create, and doing what I can to maintain a culture of gentleness with the woman I support has overflowed into my own life. I can say that this job has changed my life. I hope that I can return that favour within the organization and within my own life and the woman I support, whom I’m blessed to have had the opportunity to meet, and lucky enough to continue to spend time with.

Jeff, COR Support

To truly promote a culture of gentleness one must apply it to all relationships in their life.

The nature of  the job at Creative Options Regina inspires  its employees to “take their work home with them”. It is my view that an ideal support at COR nourishes a culture of gentleness  in all facets of their life, not just when they’re on the clock at COR. Personally, I maintain a culture of gentleness in my life by applying gentle teaching principles to everyday relationships, and by persistent self development.

I firmly believe that gentle teaching is a mindset that one sees the world through. Although I feel that the pillars of gentle teaching are innate to me, there are always ways to improve and broaden ones understanding. Reading books about neuro-science and psychology has given me a much better understanding of myself, and hence others around me. I’ve learnt that you cannot truly understand others if you do not know yourself. The nature of my degree at the U of R has also contributed to my self growth at COR. The main objective of the inclusive education classes that I have taken is to provide people with intellectual disabilities the means  they need to succeed; many of these skills transfer over to my work at COR. Lastly, and most importantly, to improve my ability to create a culture of gentleness, I work on myself through introspection. For me it is as simple as writing thoughts, new knowledge, and questions down in a journal. This allows me to organize my thoughts and be able to focus on what is important when I am supporting.

As I mentioned above, to truly promote a culture of gentleness one must apply it to all relationships in their life. Naturally I apply what I have learned from gentle teaching trainings in my everyday interactions with the man I support, however, I am proud to say that I take my work home with me. I have used GT techniques to navigate my way through my relationships with family and friends. My relationship with my loved ones is one specific example where GT techniques have dramatically impacted my life. This way of life has enabled me to help a loved one through depression at a time when I was at a loss for what to do. I went from being just another person in their life, to being their mentor.

Personally I maintain a culture of gentleness in my life by applying gentle teaching

Upon doing my internship last fall at a community school, I quickly realized that the school setting was also a place where gentle teaching has great value. Being a community school, many of the students attending came from “rough homes”. My knowledge from COR enabled me to form meaningful relationships with my students. They were excited to come to school, and so was I. Being at school was home for many of the kids that I taught; I was the only stable adult in their lives. Were it not for gentle teaching I likely would have just been “another adult” to these students and squandered the opportunity to be a positive influence in their lives. Yet, with gentle teaching, I found I was being my candid self in front of the class, staying after school on my time to talk with the kids, and attending their events that they were passionate about such as sports, band and drama. I was completely invested in their lives.

The last facet of my life (and where it all started) where I promote a culture of gentleness is my relationship with the man I support. I often wonder whether he promotes a culture of gentleness in my life or I do his. Either way, I love the guy to death. He has been in my life for two years and he has become a brother to me. I’ve seen our relationship evolve from an awkward “get to know you” stage, to now, where we crack jokes and laugh our butts off. I feel like I can do and say anything at this point in the game with him. I trust him wholeheartedly and that trust is reciprocated. When he is upset I tackle his problems head on, I want him to be bigger than his fears and anxieties. I push him to be the best person that he can be. In any situation the end choice is always his; but you can bet that I’m challenging him improve the whole time. His growth in the past two years is astounding, it has been an absolute joy to watch him progress from one milestone to the next. In his life I switch between the roles of being his friend, family member, and motivator; it is a responsibility that I do not take lightly. My role in his life is ever changing as he becomes more independent, I promote a culture of gentleness in his life by actively listening and evaluating him, thereby providing the most effective support that he needs to succeed.

Creating and maintaining a culture of gentleness strictly within the individual I serve is a flawed mentality. To truly be an agent of gentleness one has to apply it to every area of their life. In doing this, I have found that each circle in my life feeds off of one another. Instead of feeling drained after a day with the students, I feel energetic and fulfilled, ready to support, and vice versa. At this point in my life I know one thing to be wholly true: My career will revolve around being in the “people business”. Gentle Teaching has proven to be a significant influence on me throughout day to day life in the early stages of my career. Without it I cannot say that I would be enjoying the successes that I am experiencing today.

Matt, COR Support

Who am I to come into this person’s home with demands and unrealistic expectations?

I consistently strive to build and maintain a culture of gentleness among the individuals I support and spend time with. When I am in someone’s home I try to put myself in their shoes. Who am I to come into this person’s home with demands and unrealistic expectations? Trying to be mindful of what I say/how I say it and how I present myself to the person receiving support is always at the forefront of my thoughts. By using the four tools (presence, eyes, hands, and words) positively, I continually try to build on the relationships I share with the individuals I serve.

I continually try to build on the relationships I share with the individuals I serve

Ensuring that person feels safe where they are and who they’re with is an important first step. Afterwards is the point at which the person can begin to be stretched and grow. Remembering that the relationship I have with the person I’m supporting is one of interdependence, allows me to teach as well as learn. This is an attitude that I attempt to maintain both within COR with the individuals being supported as well as in my other social circles.

Jordan, COR Support

We all want the same things: to feel safe, to love, and to be loved.

I am so thankful for the training and knowledge I have received from COR. At the time I was hired I was simply looking for employment that was person centred in which I would be able to work closely with people. When I think about other agencies I could have worked for, I am truly happy I chose the path that I did. I understand that social work can be a very difficult job in which I may be required to follow strict policies which do not appear to better the individuals I am serving. At COR, I always feel that I am doing right by the individuals I work with and value the strong relationships I have been able to develop in such a short period of time. I owe this to the gentle teaching training I have received.
I believe we should be viewed as equal to those we support at COR; this is why I love the terminology of “support person” or even better a “friend”. I enter someone’s life and learn so much about them- their fears, their dreams, their hobbies, their family, their past and so on. I partly create my culture of gentleness by allowing them glimpses into my own life to be viewed as an equal. Having them over for lunch, allowing them to meet my family, and opening up about myself. I believe this allows people to feel more comfortable with you and that they will then feel safe opening up to you. Additionally, I always ensure I do not pass judgement. If someone opens up and tells me something about themselves or confesses something that has been bothering them, I ensure to be conscious of my facial expression, body language and tone when I respond. This allows for an open conversation in which they will come to me in the future and feel that they can talk and open up without judgement. COR has taught me about the power of my tools- my hands, my eyes, my tone… these can all have such a huge effect on your ability to make someone feel safe with you.

I always feel that I am doing right by the individuals I work with

In my eyes, a culture of gentleness can be broken down to simply mean what do we all deem to be valuable and important in our lives?

We are all individuals and yet, at a basic level, we all want the same things. To feel safe, to love, and to be loved. I have had the privilege of feeling safe in my life and it requires empathy to understand even the tiniest glimpse of what some of the individual’s supported at COR have gone through and what can change in your life when you no longer have to fight for basic needs. I have witnessed firsthand how much it means to someone to be able to give- to show love. For those I support to be able to teach me about something, to make me lunch or buy me a coffee; this means that they view me as a friend and care about me just as I care about them. I am proud to be a member of COR and proud of the strong relationships and friendships I have developed.

Shandrea, COR Support

I believe it is extremely important to remember that we are all equal regardless of our ability level.

When I think about COR and the individuals I serve in relation to a culture of gentleness, I think it is extremely important to remember that we are all human beings and deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. Treating people like people, and not like patients or clients shows these individuals that they are loved, important and cared about. By doing this, it ensures each relationship I have with the individuals I serve to be authentic and meaningful, and in turn allows for this culture of gentleness to develop and flourish over time. I approach each individual support time with a positive and friendly attitude, because I know that this will let the individuals I serve know that I want to be there, and I am happy to be in their presence every time I am with them.

I also believe that in order to maintain a culture of gentleness I need to love the individuals I support unconditionally. It is often easy to get frustrated, angry or upset when unfavourable incidences arise, but as a support I consciously make an effort to show that my respect, love and loyalty will not alter regardless of the situation. As a support, I always encourage the individuals I serve to pursue their passions and become involved within their community to not only enhance their own lives, but also the lives around them. By doing this, it shows these individuals that they are both capable and important members of our team and community. Those within COR that I support learn that they have the ability to positively impact someone else’s day. The safety of the individuals as well as the team is very important to me, and I believe that if I am able to provide a gentle environment through my words and my actions, everyone is able to feel much more safe within their home and with everyone around them. When situations arise that may not be safe for myself or the individual, I make sure to stay calm and remember to respect everyone involved not only to act a positive role model, but also so that a safe and positive outcome occurs.

During my time with the individuals I serve, I make sure that they know how individually special they are

During my time with the individuals I serve, I make sure that they know how individually special they are, that they are loved and cared for by many and that I genuinely enjoy and cherish the time that we spend together. I do this not only with my words, but also with my consistent display of true unconditional love for each person that I support and support with. I believe this is critical in ensuring a gentle environment and relationship. Ultimately, I believe it is extremely important to remember that we are all equal regardless of our ability level. I truly believe that the only disability in life is a bad attitude! When we treat those we support, and support along side as equals, everyone is able to feel safe, supported and loved by one another and this is how true relationships are built.

Sawyer, COR Support

Communication Between Souls

I had the good fortune of being introduced to Gentle Teaching when the philosophy had already caught fire. Many caregivers before me have blazed a trail of love and mutual respect; I was thrilled to jump on this path. Gentle teaching has allowed me to make connections and friendships that I never thought possible and is now, how I chose to live my everyday life.

One relationship that I often think of was very brief, but also something very special. It was with a baby elephant I met in Thailand. I had watched many tourists fail to make any connections with these gentle giants and was leery of paying the $10 fee to wade in the ocean with someone who didn’t want to be there. I laughed as each person got a blast of trunk water to the face and was disappointed when the animals would get yelled at when they did not respond to being poked and prodded. Most, if not all, left upset that they didn’t get their ride, and some were still choking on salty trunk spray.

I wanted that ride. When I met my elephant, I introduced myself. I made sure to show him my eyes and I gently pet him to show him I was his friend; we were safe together. Even though we did not understand one another verbally, I used my presence and gentleness to communicate and eventually the baby understood it was good to be with me. After a couple of minutes, the elephant knelt down and guided me up onto his back with his trunk. High and mighty we strolled out into the water. We had to be pried from each other when our time was up. We said our goodbyes on the shore and someone else tagged in. I giggled as I watched my friend spray the new guy in the face when he tried to step on the elephant’s head. Amateur.

Gentle teaching to me is communicating with the soul. You don’t have to speak the same language; you don’t even have to be the same species. I am very thankful that I have found a career where it is part of my day to give love. The trade off is that in doing so, it’s almost impossible not to receive it back. Sounds like a good deal to me.

– Jacine Gyug, Vocational Coordinator

A culture of gentleness is also about being able to be vulnerable

“When I first heard about creating a culture of gentleness I had no idea what that meant.

After going to trainings, learning about gentle teaching, and seeing a culture of gentleness through the people around me in an organization that seemed so alien, I finally understood what it was. Talking about a culture of gentleness isn’t enough. You don’t really understand what it is until you start partaking in the movement of gentleness that has spread across Canada. It really is a powerful thing.

I learned that creating a culture of gentleness doesn’t just mean serving the people that we support, but serving every person you meet on the street and at home.

It is a way of life. I had to change my mind set and mold my thinking to something completely different and something unnatural to a lot of people. Growing up the way I did, I learned what it meant to love unconditionally and to care for people in a way that was personal. Maintaining a culture of gentleness is very personal. In order to have gentleness, I needed to care about another person more than myself and take their limitations and physical or mental state away from how I viewed them. I have come to do this everyday with the people I support. I see them more than just someone I look out for and someone I spend a lot of time with: I see them as friends and as a huge part of my life, because to them sometimes you are their family.

The way I create a culture of gentleness is finding a balance between being firm and being personal with each person I serve. The definition of gentle is to be kind and mild temperament; I have found that being that understanding person that will listen and care in a more personal way has created this culture of gentleness for our team. The more bonded we are on a personal level and the more we listen and show kindness to each other the more gentleness has spread.

In my team, I have had to hold team members accountable and have had to have some tough conversations, but at the same time, building each person  up and showing them that I care for them. In order to create a culture of gentleness, I needed to gain trust. In going out of my way to make team members feel comfortable with me, I demonstrated that I genuinely care for them and their life situations. I try and make the people that I serve feel appreciated and loved, I have written personal cards to each and every one of them praising them for things that I have seen them do well. To maintain a culture of gentleness, I have realized that taking the times is very important… A culture of gentleness is also about being able to be vulnerable with both the people that we support and those who we serve with. It has helped us grow individually, as well as grow as one.”

Tips for Programmers

FlightPath tries to be as developer-friendly as possible, and comes with several tools built in for your convenience.

Executing PHP Code

Sometimes if you need to test something out, it's easier to just execute a few lines of PHP on the fly, rather than create a whole module file, enable it, create a menu item, etc, just to get back some results.

For this reason, FlightPath has an "Execute PHP" page built in to the Admin Console.  By default, it is only accessible to the admin user:

From that page, you can enter any arbitrary PHP code you want to execute.  Obviously, this is a very powerful feature-- only use it if you know what you are doing.

Better Debug Output

One of the most useful features during module development is FlightPath's built-in debug output function, called "fpm()" (modeled after Drupal's dpm() function in the Devel module).

With fpm(), you can output basic text statements to the screen like so:  fpm("The value of x is " . $x);

Or, if you give fpm() an array or object, you get a much more interesting display.

For example:  fpm($some_array_or_object);

It actually creates a clickable, collapsible display of the various values in the array.  Notice that you can have nested arrays, objects, etc.  Each one gets a new clickable line, for you to explore the keys and values inside.

Ghost Hunting Natural Electromagnetic Meter

Buy Natural ElectroMagnetic Field Meter directly or visit our store of over 100 ghost hunting tools!

Natural Electromagnetic Meter- There are two major types of EMF meters that ghost hunters can use.  An AC EMF meter for ghost hunting or a DC EMF meter for ghost hunting.  This Natural EM Meter or Natural Electromagnetic Meter reads and monitors the changes inDC EMF meter for ghost hunting natural electromagnetic fields given off by such things as people, atmospheric disturbances (i.e. lightening, 'northern lights', UFOs? etc.) and assorted anomalies.  This meter can usually be thought of as a DC (Direct Current) EMF meter as apposed to an AC (Alternating Current) EMF meter.  DC EMF meters are frequently called magnometers.  Ghost hunters should know about and use both whenever possible.

There very many differences between the very many electromagnetic field meters available today for the avid ghost hunter to keep up with.  They can be categorized by two distinct features, DC EMF meters and AC EMF Meters.  Beyond that, each of those categories can be narrowed further by looking at features such as; analog versus digital, single axis versus three axis.  Those would be the main features ghost hunters should be aware of, but don't forget function.  The range in which they are designed to monitor the electromagnetic fields can be manipulated as manufactured.  It is important to know what ranges of frequency, amplitude and so on that they best be used for.  As you can see in the nearby image, you can have many features such as computer interface ports for data logging, lights perfect for ghost hunting, and multifunctional options built in.

Over 6,000 NPP Delegates storm Koforidua for Annual Delegates Conference

107 total views, 1 views today

Visit: www.glorynewsonline.com for Gospel Happenings

All is set for the annual delegates conference of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) slated for the Koforidua Technical University from today (Friday,) July 6 to Sunday, July 8, 2018.

And barring any last minute hitches, the party would in within the next three days go to the poll to elect its national officers to steer affairs of the party for the next four years.

The annual delegates conference is the highest decision making body of the party followed by the National Council and the National Executive Committee (NEC).

In all, over 6,000 delegates are expected in Koforidua for the three -day event.

So far forty-one (41) candidates have been vetted to contest various national positions of the party. All the delegates crisscrossed the length and breadth of the country campaigning for votes of the thounsands of delegates.

The key position to be contested is the national chairmanship slot. And three strong members of the party are competing for the position. They are Mr Freddie Worsemao Armah Blay, the acting National Chairman, and Mr Stephen Ayesu Ntim clearly as front runners. The other candidate, Dr Richard Amoako Baah, who is second on the ballot paper, is also upbeat of winning the position.

However, Mr Blay appears to have an edge over the other two candidates, looking at how he has steered affairs of the party and his track record.

Mr Ntim was recently reported to have stated that “I am going to win and I will work with the President [Akufo-Addo] after winning, whether he will work with me or not, I don’t care, I will work with him. When I win, I will go to him and say Nana, here is the ‘silver cup,’ “I’m coming to work for you, that is what I will do, I’m not going to fight with my president, that is my lifelong political ambition.”

For the Vice Chairmanship slot, Mr Frank Freduah Antoh, Rita Asobayire and Ken Wuud Nuworsu stand tops to win the three positions at stake. Mr John Boadu and Mr Sammy Awuku also have the edge to win the General Secretary and National Organiser positions respectively.

For the General Secretary position, the acting General Secretary, John Boadu, and Richard Ahiagbah will be contesting.

The aspirants for the position of Treasurer are Kwabena Abankwah-Yeboah, Kwabena Oppong Frimpong, Mary Posch-Oduro, Hajia Ruka Ahmed, Abrahim Obeng Amoakohene and Nuhu Bayorbo Mahama.

Sammy Awuku, Tweneboa Kodua Emmanuel and Sulemana A. Sadik Nabicheinga have been cleared for the position of National Organiser.

While for the National Youth Organiser position, Henry Nana Boakye, Kamal-Deen Abdulai, Emmanuel Nana Bediako D. Appiah and Dominic Kwesi Eduah, have been approved.

The National Women’s Organiser aspirants are Kate Gyamefua and Joyce Konokie Zempare.

For the National Nasara Coordinator, those cleared to contest are Abubakari Sulemana, aka Lakulaku, Alhaji Rashid Adam, Ahmed Zaruk Nuhu, Iddrisu Abdulai Dipantiche, Alhaji Shuaibu Musah Sheriff, Baba Gado Ibrahim, Abdul Aziz  Haruna Futa, Dauda Abdul Rahman Duodu, Alhaji Aminu Abu, Sulemana Alhassan Atakpo, Abdul-Rahman Diallo, Kazeem Ibrahim, Salihu Yahaya Bo and Ali Suraj.

Over 6000 delegates will be voting at the Koforidua Technical University Park tomorrow for new national executives to lead the party going into the 2020 elections.

Glen Cove CDA Projects

Garvies Point Progress

Mayor Reginald Spinello, public officials, business and civic leaders, executives from RXR Realty and dozens of Glen Cove community members came together on Tuesday, December 6th to break ground on Garvies Point. The event was the culmination of years of collaboration between the City of Glen Cove and RXR Realty, and marks the beginning of the $1 billion effort to reclaim Glen Cove’s waterfront for the community.

“Today’s groundbreaking is a milestone for the City of Glen Cove more than 40 years in the making,” said Scott Rechler, chairman and chief executive officer of RXR Realty. “What long has been a hope of the Glen Cove community – a vibrant, publicly accessible waterfront – will soon become a reality.”

The first phase of the project, including 28 acres of public open space and amenities, is expected to be complete in 2018.

Summary of Our Research Findings

  • Driven by fast-expanding demand for lithium ion batteries, lithium has become the new glamour metal with both prices and expected demand soaring.
  • While the demand for lithium ion batteries from the consumer electronics space had already stretched the supply chain, the fast-growing market for electric vehicles is adding additional fuel to the demand fire. It is estimated that at a 100% electric vehicle penetration rate supplies of lithium would need to grow by over 3,000%.
  • Fortunately, the world has plenty of lithium. It just needs to be mined. Far’s Zoro Mine has produced strong test results indicative of a major lithium deposit.
  • Far Resources is operated by a management team with significant experience in both finance and mining operations. We expect the drilling program to continue into the winter of 2018 and we are awaiting further test results.
  • In addition to lithium, it also appears the Company’s claim in Manitoba, Canada could also have a significant deposit of tantalum, an element that is being increasingly demanded by the electronics industry in order to facilitate the miniaturization of consumer electronics devices. Recent test results have been very positive with management now indicating further prospecting is a priority.
  • Fully reporting and audited, the company appears well-positioned to capitalize on the rapidly changing market dynamics of the lithium supply chain.

    Far Resources, Ltd. (OTC:FRRSF)

    Over the last 100 years, there has been numerous metals-related boom and bust periods. Whether driven by war, major social upheaval, or groundbreaking technological changes, there have been periodic boom cycles for various metals during these periods. It has happened most often in copper and gold, two metals that modern society and its financial institutions cannot live without. Many have made, and lost, vast fortunes as these and other metals boomed and busted.

    There is another metals boom currently underway that shows no signs of abating anytime soon. In fact, we, and many professionals who follow the metals industries, believe this metal is just getting going due to rapid technological and societal changes currently occurring throughout the world.

    This boom metal is lithium. It’s a dynamic marketplace that investors should consider following.

    Exhibit One – Lithium in its Raw Form

    Of course, we are talking about the very light metal, which is shown in its mineral form in Exhibit One, that is used in many industrial applications, in particular, lithium ion batteries, not the controversial pharmaceutical form used to treat brain disorders. Lithium is one of the hottest commodities in today’s metals market and it appears the outlook is even more positive than most analysts believed only a few months ago.

    During 2016, adjusted for inflation, lithium prices were up over 13%. This is on top of gains of 22%, 23%, 14%, and 8% for years 2015 back to 2012, respectively.

    What’s incredible is that even with these price increases, it appears prices will move higher.

    There is a developing supply constraint for lithium as manufacturers of laptops, tablets, smart phones and other consumer electronic devices, are now being forced to compete for supplies with makers of batteries for electric vehicles. Considering that electric car production is expected to increase by more than 40 fold by the year 2030, according to major investment bank Morgan Stanley, it certainly does not appear there will be much of a supply relief situation anytime soon.

    Please see Exhibit Two for Bloomberg’s electric vehicle forecast, which is slightly more conservative than the one recently put forth by Morgan Stanley.

    The sheer size of the growth expected in the lithium market due to production of lithium ion batteries for automobiles deserves some analysis.   As is outlined in Exhibit Three, the battery pack in a Tesla Model S, weighs over 1,000 pounds, with 15 pounds of lithium. In comparison, the average cell phone lithium ion battery contains only 30 grams of lithium. While the lithium mining and processing industries have barely been able to keep up with the demands related to laptop computers, tablets, and mobile devices, these companies must now plan to meet the demands for lithium ion batteries to be installed in millions of electrical vehicles. It is little wonder why prices have spiked and that the forecasts call for even higher prices, as electric vehicle production kicks into high gear.

    Please see Exhibit Four for a chart of lithium spot prices over the past 15 years.

    Exhibit Four – Lithium Spot Prices – A Booming Market

    We find the information in Exhibit Five, below, to be truly incredible. According to the United States Geographical Society, if 100% electric vehicle penetration were to be achieved, demand for lithium would grow by nearly 3,000%.

    Close behind the demand for lithium would be demand for cobalt, which is also needed for production of lithium ion batteries. Both markets are expected to continue to rise over the coming years.

    The Lithium Ion Battery Mega-Factory –   Changing the Lithium Game Forever

    While most investors have heard about Tesla’s $5 billion Giga Factory, designed to double lithium ion battery production capabilities, lesser known are the many other lithium ion battery factories that are being planned by the industry. For example, other facilities that are being planned, or that are already being built, are factories for mega-companies such as LG, Foxconn, BYD and Boston Power. Exhibit Six outlines some of the capacities being built for these major market players.

    Second only to the size of the Tesla factory, will likely be Foxconn’s battery factory that is being built in China at an investment of almost $1 billion. The factory will make not only lithium ion batteries for consumer electronic devices – most notably the iPhone – but, will also be a major source of batteries for Chinese electric vehicle production. With China seeking to reduce air pollution, electric vehicle production is a priority with manufacturing levels already rising very rapidly.

    Exhibit Six – The New Mega-Factories for Lithium Ion Batteries- Surging Product Will Need Growing Supplies of Lithium

     Where Will All This Lithium Come From?

    Fortunately, there is an abundance of lithium in the ground, just waiting to be mined. It is estimated that even if the current market for lithium triples, they are is nearly a 200-year supply in the ground that can be supplied to industries to meet this huge and growing demand.

    As is outlined in Exhibit Seven, lithium is mined in many places throughout the world, with much of this production is centered in South America, which produces nearly half of the worldwide supply. However, both the United States and Canada have rich deposits that are now beginning to be widely mined and exploited.

    Far Resources, Ltd.

    We were attracted to Far Resources, Ltd. which is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, after the Company recently announced it had received final assay results from drill core samples from its recently completed drilling program. These results are covered below.

    Far Resources Ltd. is publicly traded on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the stock symbol FAT and on the US OTC market with the symbol FRRSF. Far Resources characterizes itself as a minerals exploration company with properties in both Canada and the United States. Lithium exploration is out of Manitoba, Canada.

    In addition to lithium exploration out of Canada, the Company also has two U.S. located gold and silver mines.

    The Winston project is located in the U.S. state of New Mexico in an area with proven gold and silver reserves. The Winston project currently hosts two mines, both of which have had successful production in the past. The Little Granite Mine is a past producing underground silver mine that was pulled out of production in the 1930s. However, recent site visits and collected samples lead management to believe this location can be put back into production relatively easily and can be profitable in the future. The Ivanhoe-Emporia mines are past producers of both gold and silver.   The management team and Board of Directors of Far Resources are currently analyzing the costs associated with putting these mines back into service, but for now, we believe the lithium opportunity is the major priority.

    Far’s Lithium Zoro lithium property is located in western Manitoba Canada, which has traditionally been extremely mine friendly.   Please see Exhibit Eight for its location.

    The mining industry maintains its position as one of the backbones of the Manitoba, Canada economy and there is a long history of mining rare metals, including nickel, copper, zinc, gold, tantalum, lithium, and even cesium. Resources on which mining companies depend are very well developed with the Manitoba government working on an ongoing basis to promote mining operations in the jurisdiction.

    The Zoro 1 claim, which was acquired in May of 2017, covered approximately 52 hectares near Wekusko Lake in the Western Central part of Manitoba. The acquisition was made by accelerating the Company’s original option in exchange for payment of six million common shares and a promissory note for C$100,000 payable in 12 months.

    Far Resources recently announced that the other party to the acquisition has agreed to accept payment of the promissory note in common shares, instead of the cash that had originally been contemplated. We view this as very positive for the Company as it will allow it to preserve capital in order to accelerate its drilling programs.

    In late September of this year, the Company announced a significant expansion increasing its total lithium property by more than 2,200 hectares adjacent to the Zoro 1 claim.   This was accomplished via an options agreement with Striker Resources Limited.

    Thus far, the Company’s drilling programs have produced some very respectable results. In April of this year, Far announced interceptions of wide intervals of spodumene mineralization. Spodumene is typically the lithium-containing mineral that is sought during site testing. Evidence is spodumene means the presence of lithium.

    There is also been very positive news relative to the Company’s drilling program and rock chip assays. As is outlined in Exhibits Nine and Ten, the results strongly suggest the presence of significant lithium mineralization.

    Tantalum Potential

    While there is much talk about the demand for lithium, and to a lesser extent cobalt, both of which are being increasingly sought out due to the many other forces we outlined above, the demand for a lesser-known element is also starting to grow. That element is Tantalum, which is vital to the miniaturization of personal electronic devices. This element has unique characteristics that make it perfect for creating electronic capacitors that have an extremely high capacitance, packed into a very small package. These ultra-small capacitors are increasingly being demanded by electronic device manufacturers that are under increased pressure to make devices smaller. Simply put – No Tantalum – no miniaturization.

    The mining of tantalum has been especially controversial as much of it is mined in conflict zones in Africa, as are shown in Exhibit Eleven.     Many manufacturers of electronic devices are actively seeking more “politically correct” sources for this vital element.

    So controversial is the mining of tantalum, that there are special provisions written into the Doff-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into U.S. law in July of 2010. Under the provisions of this Act, U.S. companies are required to divulge their use of tantalum, and for other conflict minerals, and the country of origin. Ever social conscience technology companies and manufacturers are very hesitant to report sourcing such materials from these conflict zones.

    For this reason, we believe, tantalum could be a second important play for Far Resources. The Company has recently announced tantalum potential at the Zorro lithium property. This potential is based on the review of its assay database of 310 drill core samples and multiple rocket chip samples. The test results showed an elevated level of tantalum on the property, leading management to believe there is potential for significant tantalum mineralization. Based on these results, the Company has indicated it has dispatched two prospecting teams to continue exploration in areas that could be promising.

    Even though the price of metal tantalum has retreated rather significantly over the past few years – it currently sells for approximately $128,000 per metric ton – we believe there is still a significant opportunity for the Company.

    We believe there is certainly a viable market for tantalum for any producer that can source from a non-conflict zone – such as the Manitoba, Canada location where Far’s main property is located.

    Exhibit Eleven – “Conflict Minerals” – Increasingly Undesirable – New Sources Needed – Maybe It’s a New Market for Far Resources

    Conflict Minerals – The Tech Industry’s Shame – A landmark law regarding conflict minerals was passed in 2010 by US Congress and requires U.S.-listed companies to determine if their products contain one or more of four minerals – tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold – sourced from Congo or one of its nine neighboring countries.   Section 1502 of the US Dodd Frank Act, better known as the conflict minerals provision, is the first piece of legislation aimed at breaking the links between eastern Congo’s lucrative minerals trade and abusive armed groups. It requires U.S. listed companies who believe they source from the region to carry out checks on their supply chains, known as due diligence, to determine whether their minerals purchases have benefited abusive armed groups. Companies must then report publicly to the US regulator, the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC), on the measures they’ve taken.

    Market Capitalization

    As of October 31, 2017, Far Resources had approximately 91 million shares outstanding. With shares recently trading at approximately US$0.70, this places the total market capitalization at approximately US$64 million.

    There are approximately 3.7 million warrants outstanding and an additional 5.1 million options. This provides a fully diluted share count of approximately 100 million shares. Therefore, on a fully diluted basis, the total market value of the Company is approximately US$70 million. We view as being very reasonable considering the lithium and other opportunities in front of this Company.

    There have also been some recent financial transactions, as recently reported by the Company, including the issuance of approximately three million options with strike prices between $.54 and $.99, and the issuance of a rather minimal a number of common shares.

Electronic Circuit Design – Analog, Discrete and Mixed-Signal

An electronic circuit is a closed path that is made up of connection and interconnections of electronic components through which an electric current can flow. Circuits contain electric components such as transistors and/or vacuum tubes; at least one of these components must manipulate voltage or current within the circuit. Electronic circuit design is categorized in three different ways:

1. Analog circuits
2. Digital circuits
3. Mixed-signal electronic circuit

Analog Circuit Design
Analog circuits are those whose signals may vary continuously with time in order to correspond to information being represented. The basic units included in this electronic circuit design are passive (resistors, inductors, capacitors, and memristors) and active. Analog circuits have two main designs: series circuits and parallel circuits. Analog circuits make up electronic equipment such as televisions, radios, voltage amplifiers, and tuning circuits.

Discrete Circuit Design
In digital circuits, electric signals take on discrete values independent of time in order to represent logical and numeric values. These values stand for the information being processed. A main component of the discrete circuit the transistor, a combination of which can be used to create logic gates. The gates can then be used together in order to create a desired output based on the input.

Larger digital circuits can contain a number of complex components like field-programmable gate arrays (FGPAs) or microprocessors. Along with other components, these can be interconnected in order to create a large circuit that is capable of operating on a large amount of data. Electronics that use digital circuits are calculators, microprocessors, and digital wristwatches.

Mixed-Signal Circuit Design
Mixed-signal or hybrid circuits contain elements of both analog and digital circuits on a single conductor die. These circuits are typically used to convert analog to digital signals so that digital devices can process the signals. Mixed-signal electronic circuit design is essential for components of FM tuners in digital products that have digital amplifiers, such as media players.

Other examples of products using mixed-signal circuits are timers, digital-to-analog converters (DACs), and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Any analog signal – whether it be a light wave, sound, or an FM radio signal – can be digitized using an ADC, The most energy efficient of these is the mixed-signal circuit.
