![]() We seek durable change in the deepest currents possible: values and worldview.Over time, sharing and training with Waves revealed insights and begged important questions of the model: Waves is an accessible training tool that allows participants to both articulate their desired narratives and identify dominant ones. Values and worldview shape our relationship to sharks: Humans and nature are in continual battle we’re defenseless against nature we fear the unknown. We use them to understand history and current events while informing identity, community and belonging. Worldviews are embedded and pervasive in culture. They pose an imminent and constant threat.įurther below the surface we find values and worldviews. Here’s a familiar shark narrative: Sharks are vicious, man-eating predators that frequently attack and kill human beings. Narratives infuse stories with deeper meaning. Narratives are a collection of stories refined over time. A national alarm is raised and forces are sent to hunt the beasts. As widespread fear and panic grips the nation, President Woodrow Wilson calls an emergency cabinet meeting. Here’s a story about sharks: Five swimmers were attacked by sharks along the East Coast of the United States in July, 1916. Stories bring narratives to life by making them relatable, accessible and even personal. Stories share that something happens to someone or something. We landed on sharks after some research and collaboration with ReFrame. We needed an example that broke down the waves images while being accessible to different political and cultural contexts. Several years ago we took this model and translated it into trainings to support social justice leaders in the U.K., South Africa and beyond. White supremacy drives racist narratives drives dog whistle tweets. And the deeper the currents, the more powerful and enduring they can be, functioning like worldviews and ideology. This is, of course, how dog whistles function: tapping deeper meaning just as waves are generated through currents. Their power is sourced from below, just as the tweets draw from less visible narratives to deliver meaning. Trump’s tweets, both constant and unpredictable, keep us disoriented on the ocean’s surface.īut waves are generated by currents beneath the surface. Swells emerge from seemingly nowhere we are tossed and turned by the churn of waves. Imagine floating in the middle of a vast, stormy ocean. We asked, how do we make sense of this dynamic? How do we become less reactive? We witnessed how Trump’s social media activity kept advocates in dismay and too often, in disarray. Narrative Initiative was established in early 2017 on the heels of a presidential election. The model borrows from the work of Grassroots Policy Project, Perception Institute and others working at the intersection of advocacy, strategic communications, and the operation of ideology. Waves is a simple illustration that begins to unpack the complex relationship between values, narratives and stories. ![]() Any ideas, tasks, or requests that come up should be taken note of to come back to later. The pomodoro is an indivisible unit of time and can not be broken, especially not to check incoming emails, team chats, or text messages. For example, "write rent check," "set vet appointment," and "read Pomodoro article" could go together in one session. Any tasks that will take less than one Pomodoro should be combined with other simple tasks. Sticking to this rule will help ensure you make clear progress on your projects. If a task requires more than four pomodoros, it needs to be divided into smaller, actionable steps. ![]() The 25-minute work sprints are the core of the method, but a Pomodoro practice also includes three rules for getting the most out of each interval:īreak down complex projects. When your session ends, mark off one pomodoro and record what you completed.Īfter four pomodoros, take a longer, more restorative 15-30 minute break. Set your timer for 25 minutes, and focus on a single task until the timer rings. Though Cirillo went on to write a 130-page book about the method, its biggest strength is its simplicity: Encouraged by the challenge, he found a tomato (pomodoro in Italian) shaped kitchen timer, and the Pomodoro technique was born. Feeling overwhelmed, he asked himself to commit to just 10 minutes of focused study time. Cirillo was struggling to focus on his studies and complete assignments. ![]() The Pomodoro Technique was developed in the late 1980s by then university student Francesco Cirillo.

Find out which productivity method fits you best A copy of the Yellow Book is available on the GAO website. The book in which these standards are contained has a bright yellow cover, so Government Auditing Standards are often referred to as “Yellow Book standards.” A CPA that performs an audit of these organizations must follow GAGAS in addition to the standards promulgated by the AICPA. GAGAS are promulgated by the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) in the publication Government Auditing Standards. Generally accepted government auditing standards or GAGAS are the additional standards, over and above GAAS, that CPAs must follow when auditing state and local governments, and non-governmental organizations that receive government funds. The difference between generally accepted accounting principles and generally accepted auditing standards is that generally accepted accounting principles pertain to how a local auditee’s financial statements are prepared and generally accepted auditing standards pertain to how those financial statements are audited by a CPA. These standards are promulgated through the AICPA’s Statements on Auditing Standards or SAS’s and are referred to as generally accepted auditing standards or GAAS. The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) establishes the standards for all audits that are performed in the United States. Auditing standards have evolved over the last four decades to ensure consistency and uniformity in the performance of audits.

Generally accepted accounting principles or GAAP are the minimum standards and guidelines for financial accounting and reporting. Three of the acronyms that are confusing to CPAs – because they are related in form and in substance – are those for generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS), and generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS). ![]() The meaning of these acronyms is not always clear, even to the members of the profession that use them. Certified public accountants, like other professionals, use a lot of acronyms. ![]() The right side of his back near the ribcage is tattooed with the writing “a pirate’s life for me” below his playing card tattoo which consists of a crown at its center.

The pop singer has inscribed a Criss Cross tattoo on his right leg below the knee. He got his chest inked with a Mandala art just below Gigi’s eyes tattoo. It seems as if Zayn loves to feel the pain while getting tattooed. He might be very close to his grandpa that he inscribed his name after his demise. The pop star got the right side of his upper chest inked with the name of his maternal grandfather in Arabic which reads “Walter” when translated into English. Zayn has the upper side of his left chest inked with Arabic writing which translates to, “Be True To Who You Are.” Since his father follows Islam and therefore he is also inclined towards Islamic teachings. ![]() Although, fans are going crazy now as they wanna know what Zayn will do with his ex-girlfriend’s tattoo!

Trying to keep a hand in the reggae recording scene, he drove long hours into the night between New York and his Marine base in North Carolina. Attending high school just as rap music was exploding in popularity, he found that his skills at Jamaican-style “toasting, ” a style that in fact was one of rap ’s forerunners, put him in high demand.Īfter graduating from high school Shaggy grew discouraged with his prospects in Brooklyn and joined the U.S. After growing up in Jamaica ’s violent central city, Shaggy left at age 18 for the Flatbush neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, where his mother was already living and working as a medical secretary. His nickname referred to his long hair and came from the hippie-like character by that name on the children ’s cartoon Scooby Doo. Shaggy was born Orville Richard Burrell in Kingston, Jamaica, on October 22, 1968. A quick and talented writer, he created a style that was rooted in Jamaican dance traditions but displayed a pop sensibility and a sense of humor that endeared him to ordinary music fans in the United States and beyond. Yet Shaggy, with two huge hits and several successful album releases in the 1990s and early 2000s, accomplished just that. ![]() Characterized historically by political and spiritual lyrics and a serious attitude, the Jamaican musical tradition of reggae has been difficult to bring to widespread popularity with fun-loving American audiences. ![]() "he had a sparkle in his eye" "there's a perpetual twinkle in his eyes" Merriment expressed by a brightness or gleam or animation of countenance Princeton's WordNet Rate these synonyms: 0.0 / 0 votes The light of incandescence is intense and white like that from metal at a white heat.īlaze, flame, flare, flash, flicker, glare, gleam, gleaming, glimmer, glistening, glistering, glitter, glow, illumination, incandescence, light, luster, scintillation, sheen, shimmer, shine, shining, twinkle, twinklingīlackness, dark, darkness, dimness, dusk, gloom, gloominess, obscurity, shade, shadow Illumination is a wide-spread, brilliant light, as when all the windows of a house or of a street are lighted.
