The team member assigned to take photos should take pictures of the building structures from every angle. When taking exterior shots of the building it is important to take photos of the building structure and the landscape, because the two could possibly have a relation. Take as many photos as possible of the material used to construct the buildings. Basic features like windows, doors, stairs, fireplaces, and the designs of rooms in the house should also be included in the photos. When taking interior shots the photographer should focus on the interior style, attributes, unusual features, and design patterns if some are present.

Kanawha County Teen Leaders: Over 4,000 hours of service to community since 2010. The service mainly falls into three categories: staffing educational kiosks at Health Fairs and Science Events; counseling and teaching at afterschool sites, day camps, overnight, and younger residential camp; and improving camp facilities during camp clean-up events. Recent survey regarding teen leader overnight event indicated that they were part of the decision-making, felt safe with other campers and staff, felt accepted by other and felt they could freely express their opinion. A survey sent to all who were county teen leaders during 2010-2015. The results indicate that they increased leadership and life skills and that elements of positive youth developments were evident within the program.

As expected, almost every Gateway Academy student complained about the length of our previous summer reading assignments. In an attempt to appease the masses, this summer we were given Teen Leadership Revolution: How Ordinary Teens Become Extraordinary Leaders by Tom Thelen. Through fourteen chapters Thelen discusses fourteen topics ranging from bullying to self-discipline to honesty. These chapters paired with their respective questions promised to help teens “navigate the storms of life and become great leaders”. While this book was, as promised, shorter than previous assignments, it was also irrelevant, poorly written, and not appropriate for readers my age.

I, Jonathan Hollander would like to join the Ladders for Leaders program so I can get experience for my future career. I hopefully can learn new techniques to old tricks, how to handle certain situations and more. I hope to get a summer job/internship out of Ladders for Leaders for two reasons the first being: I’m on a set schedule in the summer, I’m not wasting my time over-sleeping and doing nothing. The second being: a future career or experience for my job. I think I can contribute to ladders for leaders by being a role model for future applicants proving to them you can do something with your summer vacation and more importantly life. I once heard a quote that had a major affect on me “one life can make a difference in the lives of many”.

The AANP offers a twelve month leadership program. It recruits nurse practitioners from the United States and trains them with advance leadership development. “To advance the role and visibility of the nurse practitioner as a provider of high-quality, personalized and patient center healthcare, AANP joins other health organizations through multiple alliances ” ("AANP - Home," 2015, para. 6 ). Joining the alliances, will help the NP build awareness of their role within their profession.

AANP is a partner with Million Hearts; nurse practitioners have an important role of helping to prevent heart disease. They work with Million Heart by helping to reduce the number of patients who need treatment for heart attacks and strokes; and improving the lives of the ones who actually need help.

My leadership role as co-president of National Honor Society has affected me greatly in the two years I have been apart of the organization. The organization has taught and grown characteristics, such as leadership, cooperation, and determination, in myself, and in turn I have spread to others. The organization has also shown me the importance of volunteering, and how I can directly contribute to the bettering of my community through volunteering. During my time in the National Honor Society I have completed over 130 hours of community service. This year specifically I have been placed in charge of the recycling program and the road cleanup program. The recycling program consists of placing bins in each classroom for paper and plastic products,

In the story To Kill a Mockingbird, there are many characters. The antagonist, Mayella Ewell, had many conflicts with the amount of power she had. Her power is greatly debated on. Power is defined as having control of your life, and being able to control others around you. While Mayella is white, she does not have much power at all. Mayella is a poor, young lady who lives on the wrong side of town, which hurts how much of a say she has in her life decisions because of where she lives. The story takes place in Maycomb, Alabama in the 1930’s. Women did not have rights, and the rich were the ruling class. Mayella is involved in a trial where Tom Robinson is wrongfully accused of raping her. During this time period, the Great Depression was going on, so there were more poor than rich. The three leading factors of power are class, gender, and race.

The Coaching Initiative was created to empower our workforce with knowledge about their unique strengths and provide guidance on leveraging those strengths for success at work, home and in our communities.

I chose this video based on the title. I felt that I could learn leadership skills that will promote cultural competence from the video. I’ve learned in the class that cultural competence begins with the leadership of the campus/district. Additionally, I would like to learn that a cultural competent leader looks like and I feel that this video will show this.

Frequently in the film there are shots of the inner court-areas of the houses of various wives, shown with the red lanterns burning against the darkness of the night. Zhang, in his version, shoots these from a high angle and the camera is fixed in the inner courtyard. W-T would shoot this as a tracking shot, moving from a high angle shot of at least one of the dark inner courts and then pulling back to pan across the darkened compound, then moving to another high angle shot of the court with the lit lanterns. There are frequently points

I would like to be in the Peer Leadership program because I want to obtain the skills necessary to be an effective leader. This summer I will be a counselor in training at Fairview Lake, so I believe that this Peer Leadership Program will fulfill and help finish my goal to strive to be a good leader and role model. In addition, I want to be one of the Peer Leaders who will serve to be a positive influence on students all around Summit. If I am a peer leader, knowing that kids will want to look up to me will help improve my impulse control. I tend to do things without thinking and I am continuing to improve this. One of the three qualities that make me a good role model is I care unconditionally for people because I along many others can relate to those who

Laurie feels strongly about people attacking her for writing about the reality of the world. She states,” Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance.” She means that people who are ignorant and fear reality use censorship as a shortcut instead of explaining their experiences and knowledge. Furthermore, Anderson believes that adults and parents should be held accountable for teens who do not know the hardships and problems that they can get into if they are not careful. She does not imply that it is an adult’s fault for the child being in the situation, but their fault for their kids not knowing how to react to circumstances. Progenitors need to provide safe alternatives to information that needs to be learned.

The current US policy is, marijuana is an illegal substance to grow, posses, and sell. For the first time in the United States history, a majority of Americans favor legalizing marijuana. Opponents of legalization argue that making marijuana use legal will lead to an increase in drug related societal problems.

Establishing Shots- The movie begins with a few establishing shots of skyscrapers and streets crowded with people giving the impression that the location of the film is in New York City. Also, establishing shots are used to show where most of the action will be in film. For example, Andrea is seen walking from her apartment to the bakery to the subway then finally in front a large building. In a high angle shot, Andrea looks vulnerable and nervous for her interview with Miranda. There is an establishing shot of the lobby of the building named Elias-Clarke Publication, where the Runway office is located in. Also, this uses the “outside in” method where the action of movie starts from the outside then
