A boy walks down a London street and stops a man to ask, “How do I get to Wembley Stadium?” The man looks down and says, “Practice, practice, practice!” This twist on the old Carnegie Hall joke highlights the fact that great performers reach the top of their chosen fields, whether it’s the big stage

Is there any evidence that university-based continued professional development (CPD) fails when trying to develop competencies needed by humanitarian and development professionals? Or, to reframe the question, are traditional brick-and-mortar universities best equipped to support the lifelong learning journeys of people committed to this line of work?

In the 1993 film Groundhog Day, misanthropic meteorologist Phil Connors relives the same 24 hours, over and over and over again…for years on end. Given nearly infinite “do-overs,” Phil learns to speak French, play jazz piano, and flip cards into an upturned hat. Most important: he discovers the good in other people, and he learns to care about them. In return, they love him back. There's a lesson in Groundhog Day for all of us: Trying to do something over and over again, with intention and focus and feedback on what we could do better next time, is how you improve—at anything.

Abstract This chapter describes the essential role of practice in spiritual life. Detailed accounts are given of yoga, meditation, and prayer. The author's personal experiences of each of these forms of practice is combined with descriptions of different forms of practice: yoga asanas and breathing techniques, vipassana, Taoist fusion, and Tibetan forms of meditation, and a variety of forms of prayer. The spiritual effects of training the body, mind, and emotions to the spiritual virtues are illustrated, as are the dangers of attachment, pride, and habit in their application. The chapter concludes by examining the possible role of Tarot and other ‘occult’ practices and teachings.

We have been in Fiji for four days and are making admirable progress towards nailing down all those little tasks which invariably pop up when planning a two month expedition. Thankfully Suva, the capital of Fiji, is small enough that we can travel around to almost everywhere we need with relative ease. That being said, I think we were all anxious to start collecting some data. Next week we are running a short course on marine conservation, and the week after that is the Society for Conservation Biology’s Oceania regional meeting. Both fun things, but it means we’re not getting into the water until mid-July. We are using this Suva time well though. Today one of the grad students, Molly McCargar decided we should practice taking pH’s from gut contents, which will be the main aspect of her field work this summer.

Graphic Designers today must operate independently of specific tools and media. Modes of production are democratized, and so it is in the ways we choose to operate within these modes that define the value of the field. Practice Makes Practice is a response to this condition, refocusing attention from the products of design as endpoints of process to visual evidence of persistent questioning by the designer. Through my work I question roles and media, enfolding audience, client, and collaborators into my process. My practice is improvisational, quick, and performative in its response to the specifics of site and circumstance. Through constructing temporary conditions for design, I reformat the everyday and produce in real-time. My thesis traces a trajectory of work demonstrating consistent methods over a wide range of academic and applied projects. I work intuitively to couple learning and making, and through continuous production enact a practice that persists at any scale.

One of the major weaknesses in software today is the failure to practice defensive or secure programming.Most training programs include only a shallow introduction to secure programming, and fail to integrate and emphasize its importance throughout the curriculum.The addition of an ongoing, practical, mentored "clinic" or Secure Programming Clinic (SPC) is one way of addressing this lack without adding significantly to an already stretched curriculum.In order to properly design this clinic, it is important to identify the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) needed to develop effective programmers.This paper describes the results of a Delphi Study undertaken to determine the primary knowledge areas in secure programming.

Abstract This chapter considers whose practice and what kinds of practice may be creative, or expressive, of customary international law. In so doing it considers the primary role of State practice and the possible contribution, in certain cases, of the practice of international organizations; it moreover explains that the conduct of other actors does not directly contribute to a general practice as a constituent element of customary international law (but may have an important indirect role by stimulating or recording the practice of States and international organizations). The chapter then provides an overview of the main forms of practice, including inaction, and discusses the question of confidential conduct. It also explains the importance of taking account of, and appreciating as a whole, all the available practice of the State (or organization) concerned. customary international law
