![]() Imagine that you hear this sentence: George is a conscientious guy. ![]() However, signposting is also something that can help you with your listening. So far, we have looked at signposting from the speaker’s point of view. Signposting can help you with your listening It may seem like a trivial thing, but this style of communication greatly improves understanding. The simple signposting phrase in bold tells the listener what to expect next in the sentence. Here’s an example: The best thing about Steve is that he is a trustworthy friend. Remember, listeners like to know “where” they are in a presentation.Īt the sentence level, we can use signposting language to show what we are about to say. When we use language like this, the structure of our presentation is clear and transparent to everyone listening. The language used here clearly signals that the speaker is moving on from talking about the causes of stress to talking about the solutions. The first solution that I would like to highlight is… Here is an example: Now that we have looked at the causes of work-related stress, let’s examine the solutions. Just like a signpost by the road that tells you where you are going, signposting in a presentation tells the listener what is coming next. What about when listening to a presentation? Do you know “where” you are? With a good presenter, the answer is yes! Because a good presenter uses a technique called signposting. You can see which main point you’re reading, by glancing at the paragraphs. A presentation is a structured way of speaking.īut when you read an essay, you know exactly where you are - you can look at the page and see if you are near the beginning of the essay or near the end. Both have a certain number of main points. Students who are interested in declaring a communication major may speak to an academic advisor or contact the Lindquist College of Arts and Humanities for more information.A presentation is very similar to a school essay, if you think about it. “By the time they graduate, they have strong portfolios and the capability to continue to learn on their own.” “Students learn about these things in traditional classes and apply them in the co-curricular organizations and during their internships,” Josephson said. ![]() (Sara Parker / The Signpost) Photo credit: Signpost Archives The Speech and Debate teams consistently bring home awards and high placements from regional tournaments.

He hopes his story will inspire other young people with diabetes, who want to get involved with this type of career, to pursue their dreams. Strong says he’s glad to let others know that people with his condition aren’t limited. “It’s what I set out to start the commercial license for and it’s exactly where I want to go.” ![]() Now he’s been looking at job opportunities in the commercial field. He also received a couple other piloting endorsements. Over the course of just six days in December, Strong finished his commercial license training. Strong says the owner of that operation, Dave Small, empathized with him because his own daughter has diabetes. Since Newfoundland weather often doesn’t always cooperate, Strong finished up his log book with Cornwall Aviation in Ontario. But reaching his goal meant accumulating enough flight hours by the end of the year. He went to flight school in Gander until October 2019. “As soon as I seen that, it was a no-brainer for me.” Strong instantly knew he had to complete his own path. In February 2019, sitting in his car, scrolling through Facebook, he noticed a news item about an Alberta man with diabetes, Austen McDonald, who became a commercial pilot. “I reached my maximum at the time,” he remembers, putting his dream of flying on hold. He argued to become a commercial pilot at Transport Canada tribunal hearings over the years, but that process became too expensive to continue once courts and lawyers’ fees came into play. Strong got his private pilot license in early 2017. “Every pilot will tell you the same, once you get up in the air, it’s a whole different feeling than being on the ground.” Strong and his dad also worked to restore a plane. Working in that trade, he continued his love of flying, doing a “discovery flight” in Gander in 2015. In 2014, Strong became an electrician like his dad. “I was awestruck … I was just taken by it.” Strong remembers when his dad, who held a private pilot's licence, bought a floatplane, touching down on the water in Musgravetown. It was born from the connection to his father from his younger years. Strong’s love of flying had never wavered. The change in regulations gave Strong his chance to pursue his dream. Aside from stringently monitoring diet and glucose levels, and meeting medical standards for pilots, diabetic pilots are never partnered on flights with another diabetic pilot. Under new criteria, there are failsafes to make sure an emergency situation doesn’t occur. Since a recent change in regulations, Strong says Transport Canada now allows people with type 1 diabetes to be commercial pilots - with certain safety restrictions. With commercial travel, it was also to ensure an emergency situation with a pilot would not arise. Strong says safety was the rationale for the restriction. However, new pilots with the condition weren’t being accepted. Since 2002, he explained, pilots with existing type 1 diabetics were grandfathered in their commercial licenses. However, Strong told The Packet he worried diabetes would limit his career options as a pilot. Strong with a plane from Cornwall Aviation. “Even now, I enjoy outdoor activities - hiking and biking - I’ve never, ever let it slow me down.” ![]() He eventually wore a pump to regulate his insulin intake and maintained a healthy, active lifestyle as well. Strong says he was proud to show off his dietary restrictions and insulin regimen to his classmates. He laughs when he thinks back to actually being pleased in Grade 1 he had “a fantastic illness to have.” “Coming up through school, it was different.” He remembers quickly adapting to the condition. The 25 year-old had longed to be a pilot, since falling in love with flying at a young age.īut Strong was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when he was six years old. ![]() Jagard Strong, who has type 1 diabetes, recently earned his commercial pilot’s license. After decades of determination a young Clarenville man's dream to soar among the clouds is now reality. ![]()
![]() The boundless compassion and imagination of Pisces complement Jupiter’s desire to expand beyond the material world. In Pisces, its water domicile, there are no limits to the blessings our fairy godmother pours out. Jupiter rules the expansive territory of Pisces and Sagittarius. With the precision of a surgeon’s scalpel and a flair for back-room politicking, Mars in Scorpio has a tactical edge. In Scorpio, Mars wields its power in more concentrated ways. Mars’ courage and daring are sympatico with Aries, the fast-paced fire sign that needs to be there yesterday. Mars finds its domiciles in the signs of Aries and Scorpio. In earthy Taurus, Venus propagates spider plant cuttings on window sills and has a cache of “emergency” Diptyque candles. Here, a calligraphy set is at the ready and the room’s color story is honed. The cerebral domicile of Libra brings delights of the mind. Venus’ two home signs - Libra and Taurus - are where the planet of love can bask in sensual pleasure and aesthetic harmony. Mercury’s love of classification finds its stride in the sign known for organizational prowess. In Virgo, Mercury’s earthen abode, the spice rack is alphabetized and even the sock drawer is curated. Within its airy Gemini, Mercury has the freedom to weave intricate mental patterns and far-flung topics together with ease. Its two domiciles are the mutable signs of Gemini and Virgo. Mercury prefers to swing it bi-coastal, befitting the duality of its nature. Sol’s vitality and generativity are a perfect match for Leo’s radiant self-expression, and the Moon’s ebbs and flows find a homey holding vessel within Cancer’s crab shell. ![]() The Sun’s home turf is Leo, while the Moon’s is Cancer. The magic of each planet’s domiciles: The Sun and Moonīecause the Sun and Moon shine the brightest, they rule the signs that correspond to summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Once you’ve pinpointed them, reflect on how you find ease or resources in these areas of your life. ![]() If you have any planets in the sign combinations listed above, that means those planets are in domicile. Look at your birth chart on the CHANI app or via our online tool. How can you find out if you have planets in domicile in your birth chart? Traditionally, every planet rules two signs, except the Sun and Moon, which each rule one sign each. Saturn can draw its black-out curtains and curmudgeon in total privacy. Venus can be assured that its bed will be made with only the highest thread-count sheets. That means within its ordered sanctum, Mercury doesn’t have to rifle through drawers searching for the measuring cups. Did you know that each of the traditional planets has a “room of one’s own”? (I.e., a sign that they rule and feel at home in.)Įvery sign has a planetary ruler, and when a planet passes through the sign(s) it rules, it is said to be “in domicile.” When a planet is in domicile, all of its tools and resources are ready at hand. ![]() You can also find kayaks on the Dick's Sporting Goods website.
