April 2019
7th April: Lent 5: John 12 1-8
Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, the hometown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead. So they hosted a dinner for Jesus there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him. Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus' feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was going to betray Him, asked, "Why wasn't this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?" Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it. "Leave her alone," Jesus replied. "She was intended to keep this perfume to prepare for the day of my burial. The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me."
Today is known as Passion Sunday and the word 'passion' is from the Latin word meaning suffering. As Jesus approaches Jerusalem for the last time before his acute physical and mental suffering of the last week of his life on earth, he spends some time with friends. Mary's generous expression of love for Jesus is sternly criticised by Judas, who describes it as wasteful. However, sometimes an outpouring of love is the best thing a person can give another. Jesus' sacrifice on the cross is the most generous act anyone has ever done for anyone else – and he did it for us.
How can you be genuinely generous this week as we draw nearer to Good Friday?
14th April: Palm Sunday: Luke 19 28-38
After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. As he approached Bethphage and Bethany at the hill called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' say, 'The Lord needs it.' " Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them. As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, "Why are you untying the colt?" They replied, "The Lord needs it." They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road. When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen: "Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!" "Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"
Jesus entered Jerusalem for the last time on what we now call Palm Sunday. He rode into the city – not as a triumphant king on a war horse – but in humility on a donkey. The rejoicing disciples did not understand what Jesus was doing until much later. He was acting out a parable to show that he was not the kind of king the Jews were expecting. His rule would be one of love, gentleness and sacrifice.
How can we show that it is through an example of loving self-sacrifice that God will win the world – not the power of any army?
21st April: Easter Day: Luke 24 1-11
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 'The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " Then they remembered his words. When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others. It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles. But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.
When Jesus died on Good Friday it was afternoon and the Sabbath was approaching. The women did not have time to anoint Jesus' body and place spices in the folds of his shroud as was the Jewish custom. So they returned immediately after the Sabbath to find that Jesus had risen from the dead. He was alive. They hurried back to the disciples to tell them the wonderful news, but the disciples did not believe them. Eventually Peter went to look for himself. At first that seems a sad end to the Easter story, but it is not. It is a positive one for us because it is challenging. We too have wonderful news to tell, but many in our world do not believe yet.
How can we convince people that the resurrection of Jesus is true? May we all be filled with the joys of Easter.
28th April: Easter 2: Acts 5 27-32
The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin to be questioned by the high priest. "We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name," he said. "Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man's blood." Peter and the other apostles replied: "We must obey God rather than human beings! The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross. God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Saviour that he might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins. We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him."
After Easter, our readings tell us about the life of the early church. Today we hear how some of the disciples were brought before the Sanhedrin – the Jewish Council – for preaching ab out Jesus' resurrection. Good news must be shared! We, too, have been challenged to share the good news of the Gospel. At first this may seem daunting but the Holy Spirit will support us if we step out in faith. After all, we would not know about Jesus now if the disciples had not taken up the challenge all those centuries ago and others had not continued to do so.
Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you as you find ways of sharing your experience fo Jesus. The news is too exciting to keep hidden!

Raptors-Hornets Preview
The Toronto Raptors could hardly even grasp the ball while losing a big lead and ultimately a winning streak in their previous game. The storyline was the same in Charlotte's last contest, though a bit more surprising.
The clubs will try to clean up their play when the visiting Raptors seek a third straight victory over the Hornets on Thursday night.
Toronto (16-10) had won four consecutive games heading into the opener of a three-game trip at Indiana on Monday and appeared well on its way to matching a season high with a fifth straight victory.
Things unraveled quickly for the Raptors, who coughed up a 26-5 first-quarter lead when the Pacers rolled through a massive 39-4 run en route to an easy 106-90 victory.
Toronto, still playing without regular starters DeMarre Carroll and Jonas Valanciunas, turned the ball over 13 times in the first half, leading to 17 Indiana points. Overall, the Pacers converted 21 Raptors miscues into 22 points.
The loss also ended the Raptors' four-game road winning streak and dropped them to 8-6 away from home.
"You can't develop bad habits from it," coach Dwane Casey said. "You have to flush it and go to the next game. The most important play is the next play."
Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan each finished with 20 points, but the rest of the team shot just 31.9 percent. DeRozan has averaged 23.8 points in his last five games against the Hornets, while Lowry has averaged 25.0 in his last three.
A two-day break was a welcome sight for Toronto, which played three games in four days to close a stretch of eight in 13. The Hornets, meanwhile, are trying to bounce back from their own clunker in the closer of their second back-to-back set in a week.
Charlotte (14-10) is turning the ball over a league-low 12.6 times per game but committed seven in the first quarter alone during Wednesday's 113-98 loss at Orlando.
The Hornets finished with 16 giveaways that led to 25 Magic points and lost their second straight following four consecutive wins.
"The whole tone for the game was set by turnovers in the first quarter," coach Steve Clifford said. "That led to wide open shots and that's how some of their guys got going. We never got our defense where it was good enough to make a real run in the game."
Orlando shot 55.8 percent - a season high for a Charlotte opponent - and made 14 of 24 from 3-point range.
The Hornets made 45.6 percent of their shots, but the starting five finished 16 of 40. Charlotte's top two scorers, Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum, combined for 18 points on 6-of-19 shooting.
The Hornets have played the last seven games without center Al Jefferson due to a calf strain, and although he's now healthy, the 12-year veteran will miss the next five while serving a suspension for violating the NBA's drug policy. He will be eligible to return when Charlotte hosts Memphis on Dec. 26.
Charlotte is 2-1 in the second of back-to-backs, though the lone loss came with Saturday's 98-93 defeat against Boston. The Hornets are 10-4 at Time Warner Cable Arena, but they have split their last six games there.
Toronto has won the last two meetings in this series, but the Hornets took the previous six. The Raptors' 92-74 win April 8 ended an eight-game skid in Charlotte.

Records are data structures that have a fixed set of keys.
You can define a record type with the
record keyword:
record User {email : String,name : String,id : Number}
Records cannot have types which have type variables.
Record definitions are globally unique, so defining a record with the same structure but a different name will raise an error.
Records can be nested in each other, using nested type definitions.
record Position {x : Number,y : Number}record Entity {position : Position,id : String}
Creating a nested record is straightforward:
entity ={position = {x = 0,y = 0},id = "0"}
Records can be created like this:
{email = "email@example.com",name = "John Doe",id = 0}
You can create a new record by copying from an existing one and changing only some of the fields, like this:
user ={email = "email@example.com",name = "John Doe",id = 0}updatedUser ={ user | name = "Stuart" }{email = "firstname.lastname@example.com",name = "Stuart",id = 0}
Trying to add fields to a record which doesn't have it in it's definition will raise an error.
[PLANNED] You can update a nested record with a dot notation.
user ={name = "Stuart",address = {location = "Freedonia"}}{ user |name = "Bob",address.location = "Super Silly Fun Land"}

Finally, I got my lazy ass of my chair to go look out for a teeth whitening tooth paste. Although my teeth are already yellowish when I am born but it's getting more and more dirty. Despite being lazy to go and look for a dentist to do teeth cleaning. I found a lot of teeth whitening toothpaste in the shopping mall, all are like saying that one will have their teeth whitened in 14 days.
Though, all are just local and very common brand, after looking around for sometimes, I found the above one. Pearl Drops toothpaste, it's so freaking expensive for RM28.90 and it claim that the teeth will be whitened in 3 weeks. Longer but reputable because it's from England. Let's check out my teeth in 3 weeks time.

I have had to remind myself of this recently. Things can become overwhelming and we can feel that we HAVE to say yes, take on more, etc.
This is how we get burned out, tired and frustrated. I took last week to take a breather, allowed myself space to think, and I feel better heading into this week.
Hang in there, you are doing great things! 💋

In Monrovia, the nation's capital, people are lining up at banks. People are hoarding food. People are fleeing.
Soldiers have quarantined neighborhoods.
Schools are closed. So are some borders.
President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf declared a state of emergency — for the next 90 days.
She's asked people to pray and fast. Religious leaders would also pray for health care workers and "against any form of witchcraft activity used to spread Ebola virus," she said.
"We are calling on all Liberians to join in this time of true national repentance and prayer against the Ebola virus," said priest Jervis Witherspoon, spiritual adviser to Johnson, according to Agence France-Presse. "We believe, in accordance to the scripture, that God will hear our prayer, forgive our sins and heal the land."
The United States has advised citizens not to travel to the country, and sent the families of its diplomats home.
Those treating the infected are becoming infected themselves — and walking off the job.
"People are scared. People are traumatized," Lewis Brown, Liberia's information minister, told the Wall Street Journal. "When you see your colleagues, your co-workers succumb to the disease… the first reaction is for people to walk away."
It's bad — and in Sierra Leone, things are worse.
Number of dead: 286. Number of cases: 691.
"Dead body management" teams have been created to deal with the mounting corpses.
A state of emergency has been declared.
An "enforced holiday" on Monday sent everyone home.
The hardest hit areas — Kenema, a diamond trading hub, and Kailahan — are totally locked down. Almost a million people live there. "No one knew we would be cut off like this," Abu Bakhar Shaw, a shop owner in downtown Kenema told Newsweek. Cars line up at checkpoints, but can't get out.
A hospital in Kenema, an epicenter of the infection, stands empty. "Don't touch the walls!" warned a Western medical technician. "Totally infected." People are afraid to die at the hospital — they see it as a death trap, the New York Times reported. Instead they are dying in the community, five or six per day, increasing the risk the infection will spread.
Soldiers in riot gear are blocking roads to some infected districts — 750 were deployed to keep people quarantined. There are 16 checkpoints on major roads.
Armed soldiers have surrounded homes of the infected, isolating them for weeks at a time. Houses are being searched to make sure the sick are quarantined.
People don't trust advice from medical workers and doctors. Some have stormed clinics to reclaim their sick relatives.
Prices are rising. The cost of rice is up by 30 percent. The cost of salt doubled in 24 hours.
Cases have been recorded in all but one of 12 districts.
Some of the sick manage to survive.
A Saudi businessman who had symptoms of Ebola died Wednesday after a recent business trip to the country.
Then there's Guinea.
Number of dead: 363. Number of cases: 495.
In Conakry, the capital, a man who collapsed in the street went without help for five hours, the Telegraph reported.
"Let them come and take him from here because we are afraid," said a witness.
When police came, they left him there.

A group of short-term missionaries rowed up to the shore of the remote island in Malaysia. They were making a "first contact" with a remote tribe. This was to be an information-gathering trip. They would be observing the tribe from a distance. It was raining hard and some members of the group were soaked to the skin. They clamored out of the boat and sloshed through the thigh-high water to reach the shore conscious of the fact that they might not be making a good first impression. The natives that inhabited this remote island were used to such storms, and were obviously better able to deal with them. They sat in their grass-covered huts looking out into the deluge with half-smiles on their faces. Their half-naked bodies were unencumbered with saturated clothing that needed to be removed and dried.
Trevor, the leader of the missions' group, led them to some palms that provided shelter. After a few minutes, the downpour stopped and the group set about gathering wood to start a fire on the beach. Trevor gathered a large bundle of dried sticks and palm fronds that he dropped into the fire. Suddenly, out of the bundle of sticks came a Malayan snake that immediately attached itself to his hand. Frightened, Trevor shook the snake into the fire.
The natives had begun to come out of their huts to look at these strange people from another land. When they saw the snake attach to Trevor's hand, they pointed and began to talking rapidly in their dialect. One of the men, a leader, approached Trevor, and acted out what he knew would be Trevor's fate: swelling, convulsions, and dying.
Trevor was frightened, more frightened than he had ever been in his life. His hand stung, and he could see two points where the snake's fangs had punctured his skin. Was he really about to die? Who would take his team back to Kuala Lumpur? No one else could speak this dialect, and no one else knew the way back to civilization.
Suddenly he remembered the incident in Acts when Paul had also been bitten by a snake. Nothing had happened to Paul. When the natives in that case had seen what Paul's God had done for him, it had opened the door for ministry to those natives. Then Trevor heard the Holy Spirit whisper in his spirit: "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever." (Hebrews 13:8 NIV)
Trevor smiled. His God could deliver him from the snake bite. His God could heal him. His God would bring glory to Himself and confirm the good news they hoped to bring to this remote people. It would be just as it had been two thousand years before when Paul was bitten. He got up, stood straight, and began working to help his team mates.
As expected the natives marveled at this. As they watched Trevor the rest of the day, and when he was not harmed by the snake bite, they said in their dialect, "The LORD-He is God!" (I Kings 18:39 NIV)

Fiesta Americana Condesa Cancun was the perfect place to prepare for the most important day of Cristina and Jackson's life. The hotel is nestled close to the beach but has lots of cute corners of green, textured walls, and walkways covered in vegetation. Cristina and Jackson started getting ready for the day in separate rooms with their most important people. The spaces were incredible. Each room had multiple floors, balconies, several bedrooms, and the light was a photographer's dream come true. Their individual spaces were filled with joy, purpose, and lots of laughter. Jackson shared a meal with the guys while Cristina was pampered by her girls.
Before heading to La Iglesia María Estrella del Mar, Jackson and Cristina made their first look in a gorgeous green area with vines hanging and climbing the hotel walls. It was the perfect time for them to see each other, kiss as fiancé's for one last time, and share a few words of encouragement. After a few quick shots, they hopped on the bus and made their way to the church.
Mother Nature had some relief for the couple as they began their ceremony. She brought refreshing winds and even some soft summer sprinkles. But the couple remained cool, calm, and collected and finished their portraits before heading back to the hotel for dinner and fun. They say it's good luck if it rains on your wedding day, so we think Cristina and Jackson should play the lottery because the skies opened up during their reception!
Cristina and Jackson didn't wait for the storm to pass, they decided to dance in the rain!

If you love nutella & banana, try some french toasts sandwiches with them : I put nutella and banana slices between two slices of thick bread and them put each exterior side of the sandwiches in a batter of milk, eggs and nutmeg before cooking them in a pan. When you pour some maple syrop on top of that, your mouth go nuts. It became our favorite sunday-morning breakfast :)

1. It really is true that you can freeze browning bananas and then use them in breads. I had never tried this until last month when I didn't get around to eating the bananas. I threw them in a ziplock and then used them for this cake. Couldn't tell a difference at all.
2. For some reason the nutella frosting wasn't very moist. I don't know what I did wrong (i ended up adding about 6 tbs of whipping cream). Regardless, it was delicious.
3. I baked it in two 9" rounds and it turned out great.gailhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320010625470415211.post-21618943136029874192012-02-12T18:46:57.684-08:002012-02-12T18:46:57.684-08:00The combination sounds amazing!

By 7pm I arrived at the automobile park. A somewhat stooping determine was already there ranking in the shadows. She approached my car immediately. I opened the entranceway on her behalf and lay with her at the backseat. When placed, she stated that I could fuck her as numerous instances as I would like to, but no anal sex. Anal sex was painful and when it was not unpleasant she didn't mind at all, she continued. I did not claim any such thing but achieved for the dash kitchen and needed out the bottle of lubricant. That jelly here is for anal intercourse I informed her. I handed the bottle to her. She needed the package and attempted to open it. My penis stumbled on life. I could feel my penis straightening and pressing for space. I undid my trousers Xxxpornochat and subjected my erect cock. I exposed the container and with my fingers I smeared the jelly throughout my cock. I told her I'd put some jelly on her behalf butthole. With out a term she undid her trousers and leaned sideways. I smeared some jelly on her butthole. I needed her hand and shared with her to test inserting a finger in to her asshole. Nevertheless I could not see much as it was evening, I could only experience with my hand. Her finger slid in easily. I set my give over her hand to stop her taking out her finger. As her hand stayed inside, I bend over to suck her tit. The idea of this previous person inserting her finger up in her asshole really aroused me.
Back to my car with the loaded food and refined products, Sexy Cams Online I extended smoking while she ate. I was wondering if she agreed to fuck just for some suggestions and for sexual pleasure. I did wish that she would be horny and loved fucking. When she had finish eating, I drove to some other secluded corner of the town. Here, I wish to fuck her once more before sending her off. I left my car then joined her at the backseat. She seemed to know my intention. Just as I was embracing her, she lay straight and began undoing her trousers. I undid mine too. I needed my dick an located it on her slit and it slid in easily. Her pussy was still moist from our first fuck. Now round, I need to labour. The excitement of fucking her was not there anymore. My somewhat numbed cock slid in and Couplesexf21 out creating her pussy very wet. She moaned every time my penis slid in. Her legs fell apart while she leaned back. Clearly she'd cummed. She was panting as I extended to fuck her. Her pussy was soggy moist and had ease it's grasp on my cock. Work trickled down my forehead, I continued moving her pussy. Eventually my hard labour compensated off. I drawn out and jerked my cock. Ejaculation was generally enjoyable while only a little sperm was ejaculated. Declines of sperm dotted her belly. We cleaned up and got dressed, I went and slipped her at the junction to her home and shared with her I will be viewing her soon. I went house emotion exceptionally satisfied. My long delay to get her was ultimately over. I is now able to put her at the rear of Ebony Live Sex Chat my mind.
There is a classic widow who worked in your kitchen of a cafe. She was in her late 60s. She had a good complexion with a medium built. From the appearance of her sagging tits below her shirt, we could say she must have a beautiful large breasts in her younger days. I was attracted to her but we remained as relaxed friends. She kept her range rendering it burdensome for me to set up a more romantic relationship with her. I wasted a lot of my spare time wanting to tame her. As the occasions passed, I acquired hornier. I could imagine romancing and anal fucking this widow, but chances kept bleak. My encourage to anal fuck this old widow forced me to get the old bowl washer in the street. I drove around area from road to street trying to discover her. She should be scavenging somewhere. A straw cap, over sized t shirt and a baggy long shorts would be her deal mark. I just needed release a the stress of my mounting urge. It had been late evening that I found sight of the familiar determine crossing the road in a haste. She may be on an errand getting her day-to-day tips from large folks. Nice persons used to produce her useful doing easy provisions for them then offering her tips. I drove heading towards her direction. I parked and waited. As she was nearing my vehicle, I moved out and given her $20, and at the same time shared with her I would be awaiting her later in the evening. She nodded. However for another couple of days she prevented me. I tried to
approach her but she was careful not to run into me. Following many attempts, I offered up. I shifted my emphasis to the widow working at the cafe. She was as challenging as she always was. Each time I made an improve on her behalf, she'd respectfully decline. It absolutely was a cat and a mouse game. I preserved my patience. It had been a wet week and a bad time for scavengers. Little were to be found and a poor time for errand runners too. I recognized the familiar figure in her baggy trousers seeking protection at the part of the shop. She was clear handed. I stepped up to her and offered her $50. She smiled at me. I thought she will need to have understood me. I requested her if she had taken her meal. Her answer Live Sex Chatting Free surprised me. She asked me to get packed food on her later in the evening. I told her l would be around as usual. I visited a drugstore to get a water based jelly lubricant. With this I am sure I could anal fuck her and take cum inside her asshole. I bought condoms too in case I will need it. With this, I was looking towards tonight's adventure.
I used my penis constantly in place and pushed. It slid into her asshole easily. I created a gradual push and pull motion. I guided her hands to her pussy and created her realize that I wanted her to rub her clit while I fuck her ass. Soon she was focusing on her clit rubbing it in a circular motion. From her fluid actions, I could inform she must have masturbated regularly. Her asshole tightened clutching my penis as she was cumming. I was finding left too. She reached for my give and put it on her pussy. I extended scrubbing her pussy while she from time to time modified my hand putting it at her preferred spot. Then her time came, she built me insert two fingers into her pussy. I possibly could feel her pussy pulsated. My dick rush it's content. My brain gone empty, all senses were centered at my cock. When the delighted sensations of ejaculation was over, my tool softened and thought numb. I withdrew from her and cleaned my cock. As I dressed up I informed her I would move to buy the packed food. When I left the automobile, my knees believed weak. I needed my measures gradually lest I stumble.

Hillside Health Center Helps Nursing Students Earn Their Stripes
Every year Hillside Health Center allows Mendocino College nursing students to rotate through its Care for Her department during their spring semester, so the students can learn more about maternal and child health. This year, Mendocino College nursing instructor Nora Danning was so pleased with the Care for Her experience that she wrote a letter applauding Care for Her's approach, and especially thanking certified nurse midwife Cayo Alba, whose name came up over and over when students returned from their rotation insisting they were going to specialize in obstetrics based on Alba's influence.
Hillside Health Center welcomes each student in the nursing cohort for one day (on a Tuesday). Of the 17 nursing students in this year's graduating class, five are men—an unusually high number, according to Danning.
"While it's unlikely the male nurses will go into obstetrics, they may end up in the ER and be required to help deliver a baby. I so appreciate Care for Her's willingness to provide such a good experience," she said.
Care for Her manager Jill Damian explained how they share the Care for Her approach with nursing students. "I spend about 20-30 minutes providing a tour and giving students an overview of Care for Her and the whole health center.
"I always explain that our healthcare community is small; and when they finish nursing school, I hope they will have some understanding of how our organization fits in."
After Damian's introduction, students spend the rest of the day with nurses and doctors, primarily shadowing the certified nurse midwives. Nursing students also meet those same nurse midwives and OB/GYNs during their obstetrical rotation at Ukiah Valley Medical Center.
Damian said, "It's fun when they've attended a delivery with one of our providers at the hospital and then get to spend time with her in the clinic."
Danning noted that finding institutions willing to provide clinical rotations for nursing students is getting increasingly difficult, and shared her appreciation that Hillside Health Center continues to help new nurses gain the experience they need.
"Care for Her really went above and beyond to provide a quality experience," she said. She noted that Alba was a standout among standouts, helping students feel like part of the healthcare team, allowing them to interact and observe prenatal care, post-partum care, and working with patients as they dealt with other health issues like paps and contraception.
"Students just glowed when they got back. 'I'm going into OB!' they kept saying," Danning said.
Mendocino College currently offers both a 2-year Registered Nursing Program and an LVN to RN Bridge Program. Completing the program leads to eligibility for licensure as a registered nurse (RN). Upon completion, the graduate will receive an Associate Degree in Nursing and will be eligible to sit for the California State Board of Registered Nursing licensing exam.
Their Associate Degree program is a 2-year full-time program that offers a series of courses that combine academic classes on campus, skills practice in the nursing skills laboratory, and patient care experience in various hospitals and facilities primarily in the Lake-Mendocino area.
Many local health centers and hospitals hire nurses who complete the Mendocino College nursing programs, including Hillside Health Center's Nursing Director Jasmin Pintane and Hillside's Diabetes Educator Veronica Clow.
Danning explained that not everyone has the gift of being a good teacher, but that many of the Care for Her midwives are excellent teachers. "They were willing and able to take the time to share what it means to be a nurse-midwife, so the nursing students really understood," she said.
Damian said she was impressed with the nursing students who came recently. "We found this year's class to be really fabulous. They were prepared and asked really great questions," she said.

Royal Caribbean International is making a multi-billion dollar investment to develop a collection of exclusive private island destinations around the world, add new innovations to 10 existing ships, debut new vessels and ramp up its short Caribbean cruises.
The first of the new Perfect Day Island Collection destinations will open at Royal Caribbean's existing private island of CocoCay in The Bahamas in 2019.
To be transformed during a US$200 million project, the island will have two distinct beach areas – Chill Island with cabanas, daybeds for relaxation, and South Beach, which will offer volleyball, beachside basketball, soccer, paddle boarding, glass-bottom kayaking and zorbing. Other highlights will include the exclusive Coco Beach Club with the first overwater cabanas in The Bahamas; a 1,600-foot zip line that crosses the island at 50 feet above the ground; Oasis Lagoon, the Caribbean's largest freshwater pool, which will have a swim-up bar and in-pool loungers; and a helium balloon that will take guests up to 450 feet above the ground. Guests will also be able to head to Thrill Waterpark, which will have a large wave pool, a child-friendly obstacle course pool and two water towers with 13 slides – the most in any Caribbean waterpark.
The phased transformation project will start in September 2018 with the completion of a new pier, and most of the island experiences will be open by spring 2019. Coco Beach Club will be opened during the final phase in November 2019.
Additional Perfect Day Island Collection destinations in Asia, Australia and the Caribbean will be announced at a later date.
"It's true that our ships are technological and engineering marvels in their own right and offer a multitude of unexpected experiences, but our destinations are an equally important part of the cruise vacation," said Michael Bayley, president and CEO of Royal Caribbean International. "We are introducing the Perfect Day Island Collection to deliver the most memorable vacation for adventure seekers on land and on board our ships. Once completed Perfect Day at CocoCay will be the ultimate family destination in the Caribbean."
Royal Caribbean has also dedicated US$900 million to modernising its fleet as part of the new Royal Amplified initiative. Spanning 10 ships in four years, the programme will see the line introducing new digital innovations – including frictionless check-in, stateroom technology and a new mobile app – as well as specialised pool spaces, experiential dining and nightlife concepts. The ships will also be fitted with first-of-a-kind attractions like Sky Pad, a combined virtual reality and bungee trampoline experience, which will debut on Majestic Princess.
The cruise line will also launch several new ships over the next few years, including Symphony of the Seas, which will become the world's largest cruise ship when she debuts this April. Other newbuilds in the line-up include the first Quantum Ultra Class vessel, Spectrum of the Seas, which will be introduced in 2019; a second Quantum Ultra Class ship in 2020; a fifth Oasis Class ship in 2021; and two new Icon Class vessels, which will be powered by LNG and fuels when they start service in 2021 and 2022.
In addition, Royal Caribbean is increasing the number of short Caribbean getaways to meet demand from millennials and other travellers. In summer 2018, Mariner of the Seas will begin sailing three- and four-night cruises from Miami, Florida after a US$90 million modernisation. Sister ship Navigator of the Seas will also offer similar short cruises after her 2019 revitalisation.

1. Haunting music
In the Moody Music Building Concert Hall, Dr. Faythe Freese sits at UA's famous Holtkamp pipe organ and plays a few bars. Recognize the composition?
For many of us, this music brings to mind supernatural movie villains who have sent chills down the spines of audiences since the days of silent film. But the 18th-century composition's origins are not remotely sinister.
"JS Bach's 'Toccata and Fugue in d minor,' BWV 565, was composed in 1708, long before silent movies. Depending on your viewpoint, it is an unfortunate, or fortunate, marriage of film and an organ work composed 186 to 221 years prior to the life of silent movies," said Freese, professor of organ in the School of Music. "Originally in 1708, there was no extracurricular theme, that is, that the Toccata was not meant to serve an agenda as haunted music, it was just a 'regular' piece of organ music.
"The first instance of combining the Toccata with (sound) film might be 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' (1931). 'Toccata and Fugue in d minor,' a wonderful solo organ work, has become cliché through so many performances in the Halloween movies, performances that are quite often less than stellar."
2. Spare "body parts"
These arms are not props in a sci-fi or horror movie. They are training models used in the Capstone College of Nursing's clinical practice lab and simulation center. Students use the models as practice tools when learning to insert IVs and draw blood before working on real patients.
The nursing school's inventory ranges from high-fidelity patient simulators to demonstration models such as torsos, arms, legs and everything in between. Nursing students begin working with the simulators in their first semester of upper level coursework, performing basic assessments. By their last semester, they are working on the patient simulators in highly complex scenarios that test all the knowledge and analytical skills they've gained at the Capstone College of Nursing.
3. Stairs that look like they belong in a haunted house
This 1850s staircase appears a bit spooky now, but when renovations to the main building on UA's Bryce campus are complete, it will lead visitors up to a grand hall with stately arches and a rotunda. The structure will house the University welcome center, with a cultural center, reception venue, and associated office and administrative space. The building will also hold museums dedicated to both University history and the history of mental health. The expansion will make space for the UA Museums' vast collections, especially natural history, special collections and the Jones Art Collection. Connected to the building through a lobby will be a performing arts center, designated as the new home of the department of theatre and dance. Read more about the history of Bryce campus and plans for its future.
4. Zombies
During Fall Semester 2013, faculty in the College of Communication and Information Sciences used zombies to bring education to life for a group of telecommunication and film students. The assignment? Producing the pilot episode of "Zom-Com," which tells the story of a group of zombie chasers hired by corporations to tag and study zombies.
The film project was a collaboration between two classes. In TCF 451: Advanced Television Production, students applied their audio/visual skills and learned hands-on about casting, marketing, branding, makeup, wardrobe and special effects. In TCF 444: Zombies in Culture, students examined the zombie through a variety of genres and time periods, from its origins as a Caribbean voodoo monster to the work of George A. Romero, the father of the modern zombie, to more current depictions in the post-9/11 world.
"Zom-Com" premiered in April 2014 at the Bama Theatre in downtown Tuscaloosa and was screened at film festivals in Birmingham; Memphis, Tennessee; and Burbank, California. View the pilot episode of "Zom-Com."
5. A cauldron of molten metal
It may look like hellfire, but this vat of molten bronze is destined for a loftier purpose. Once poured into a mold and cooled, it will become a statue – the realization of an artist's vision.
Renovated in 2013, UA's workshop and foundry facility, located between Hardaway Hall and the old Bureau of Mines building, is a collaborative learning space shared by the College of Engineering and the College of Arts and Sciences. The state-of-the-art facility includes a consolidated machine shop for both colleges, providing opportunities for collaborative work and resource sharing between students and faculty in both divisions.
There are two foundries. One supports the sculpture program in the department of art and art history. The other supports the metallurgical and materials engineering department, one of only 20 Foundry Educational Foundation Certified Schools in North America.
6. A cabinet full of opossums
These stuffed opossums are among the many curiosities tucked away on the third floor of Mary Harmon Bryant Hall, where the collections of The University of Alabama Museums are stored. Specialty space-saving metal cabinets, which can part to form aisles for visitors to peruse, house everything from invertebrates, taxidermic specimens, crystals and rocks to World War II artifacts, textiles, photographic plates and pottery. Professors bring classes for tours, or borrow items for classroom use. Classes in anthropology, osteology, geology and the biological sciences in particular make use of the collections. Outside researchers also submit requests to use the collections.
7. Ghostly legends
University of Alabama faculty, students and community members benefit from the trove of information and resources found at Amelia Gayle Gorgas Library and Smith Hall, home of the Alabama Museum of Natural History, which are both named after prominent figures in UA's history. How else do the legacies of Dr. Eugene Allen Smith and Amelia Gayle Gorgas live on at the University? Unexplained voices, feelings of being watched and a malfunctioning elevator, among other things, have led some to wonder. Read "Spirits of the Capstone."

Do we have a crisis of vision? 5 resources to help define a compelling vision for learning
As leaders, we are focused on changing and improving learning in the classroom, but do we know where we are going? Do we have a clear picture of where we want our actions to take us? If asked to share our beliefs about learning, what would we say? How are those beliefs shaped by access to technology and our ability to truly honor the needs and passions of individual learners in the learning process? As leaders, do we anchor our conversations about change in beliefs about learning? Do we lead our teachers, parents, students and communities to understand how investments in human, financial and material resources move us closer to our vision of the ideal learning environment?
Over the past school year, work in the Salisbury Township School District has focused on clearly defining outcomes for our graduates and the learning environments to support those outcomes. Through conversations with all representative groups of
stakeholders, a Profile of a Graduate (the end-in-mind – knowledge & literacies, skills and dispositions) was developed, and a core set of beliefs about learning and the learning environment were articulated. In essence, the products provide a vision for the future. (We are currently in the process of designing user-friendly visual representations of each document. A future post will explore the process followed to get to these two products and the next stages in our work.)
As I interact with my PLN, engage my colleagues and attend conferences, I often wonder if we have a crisis of vision in education. As organizations, are we too often executing action plans with no clear end in mind? Have we as educators taken the time to explore our beliefs about what our communities want and believe? While these conversations are important, I have learned that if leaders are to address the crisis of vision, they need to build a knowledge base of what is possible – read, engage thought leaders and explore model schools, districts and educational systems doing the real work of changing practice.
The conversations my colleague, Lynn Fuini-Hetten, and I had with stakeholders this year were informed by research on current innovations and thought leadership in progressive education. While many resources formed the basis of our research, here are 5 any leader can start with to begin thinking about vision.
- The End of Average: How we succeed in a world that values sameness by Todd Rose There is no such thing as an average learner. Once we realize this, the door is open for moving our thinking toward true learner-centered environments.
- A Transformational Vision for Education in the US by Education Reimagined This whitepaper digs deeper into the learner centered paradigm and provides a 5-element "north star" for launching conversations to develop a vision for learning. (Listen to our podcast with Kelly Young of Education Reimagined.)
- Freedom to Learn by Will Richardson In addition to exploring how our limitless access to information should change how we think about learning, read about a public school doing the work to completely reimagine learning. (Listen to our podcast with Will Richardson.)
- Make Learning Personal: The What, Who, WOW, Where and Why by Barbara Bray and Kathleen McClaskey The phrase "personalized learning" is batted around, but do we really know what it looks like and how it values learner agency? This resource provides the framework to begin getting comfortable with personalized learning and the accompanying systemic changes. (Listen to our podcast with Barbara Bray.)
- Invent to Learn: Making, Tinkering and Engineering in the Classroom by Sylvia Libow Martinez and Gary Stager Create classroom experiences that alignwith the natural inclinations of children and the power of learning by doing. (Listen to our podcast with Sylvia Martinez. Listen to our podcast with Gary Stager.)
Approached in the ordered outlined above, the resources take the leader from a broader rationale for reinventing our current system of education to what transformation looks like in the classroom. While each of our learning contexts is as unique as the individual learners within them, these 5 resources can provide the school leader with a foundation and the fuel to power the journey toward designing a compelling vision for learning. Visit TLTalkRadio.org to access interviews from over 30 other thought leaders we interacted with to help define our vision for the future of learning in the Salisbury Township School District.

Since I started blogging full time at home, I've been struggling with taking afternoon naps. Who can blame me?! We live in a tiny 600 square foot house and either the bed or the couch is always in eye sight and it just looks so comfy.
I needed to brainstorm some ideas to help keep myself awake.
My body dislikes caffeine so coffee or an energy drink are out of the question. I could go for a walk, take a drive to the grocery store, or do a 10 minute ab video. All good ideas.
But I found the best way to stay focused all afternoon – the casefile true crime podcast!
We're big fans of murder mystery shows and I am pretty sure it all started with the Serial podcast – but making a murderer and the jinx are 2 really interesting tv shows about real crime.
So I'm hooked on listening to the casefile podcast and now I am paranoid that my neighbors are hiding bodies in their houses. Kidding – mostly haha.
And the best part is that the day seems to fly by because I'm so wrapped up in each new case. But I can't listen to the podcast and write a blog post at the same time because than my brain wants to write what I'm hearing so I've been putting off writing and will willing do any other task if it means I can start a new episode.
I bet you know what I'll be doing after I finish writing this :)
Say hello to these super easy BROOKIE CUPS! It's a brownie and a cookie smashed together and baked in a muffin pan. Ryan likes to call them crownies.
I used packaged cookie dough and a box of brownie mix for extra ease – if you want to make cookie dough and brownie batter from scratch – don't let me stop you, wonder woman!
I'm starting to discover that the muffin pan is one of the most versatile kitchen tools. We could even petition that the name be changed to "the universal pan" – I am almost certain that any recipe could be transformed to be baked in a muffin pan. Plus it produces perfect individual portions every time. Talk about consistency :)
Let's get to the nitty gritty – how do I bake brookie cups?
Spray a regular size muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray. Place pieces of cookie dough in each muffin well – some on the bottom or some of the sides – mix it up. Add some brownie batter and then go back and add a few more cookie dough pieces. It's best if you only fill the cups about 1/2-3/4 full.
Then bake – eat – repeat!
Yield: 18+ brookie cups
Total Time:45 minutes

Day 24- Luc was still a little sore in his lower back/haunches today, so we just worked on lunging over poles today. He was lazy at first, but then noticed that there were MARES running in the nearby paddock. He wanted to talk to them, and got very excitable running around and jumping the poles with room to spare. After a couple of rounds I think he realized the circles were getting him no closer to his desires, and he calmed down.
Looking forward to riding again tomorrow 😊
