Ok, so obviously I've missed the last couple of weeks, blogging-wise, and I'm going to talk about that at the end of this post. But first: some cooking adventures.
As you may have deduced, I don't really cook. I've toyed with the idea before, and I even know how to make some stuff, but until now, I've been hampered by a mixture of laziness and the fact that handling raw meat/fish/poultry kind of freaks me out. Recently, though, I got it into my head that I would like to make lasagna, so it was off to… Google, to find a recipe.
I think I searched something like "easy lasagna"–you know, being realistic about my skill level. That turned up this recipe. I also decided to make my own tomato sauce (recipe from Food Network–I added and changed some stuff, but it's probably fine as is). And in no time at all, I was making classic mistakes like deciding to cut the recipe in half, but neglecting to measure the pan, so that my proportions were doomed to be way off.
The next thing I forgot to do was add the middle layer of noodles. And when the lasagna came out of the oven, it was watery enough that I quickly labeled it as being more like glorified tomato sauce. I even made some spaghetti noodles, expecting to have to add more pasta to fix the ratio. But what I failed to account for was that lasagna firms up in the fridge, so the spaghetti proved unnecessary–the lasagna was fine. Good, actually.
That having been said, making the spaghetti noodles was so much easier that I decided to head straight for that next time. And something strange happened. As I boiled the noodles and tended the ground turkey for the sauce (cooking two things at once, for the *challenge*), I found myself kind of enjoying it. There was something satisfying about going from stirring the noodles to checking on the turkey and back again. And there was definitely something splendid about not having to worry about what I ate for several meals afterwards.
Less satisfying: doing that chef thing where you add roughly "that much looks right" of an ingredient to a dish. I know my mom does that, but for some reason I find it vaguely horrifying when I catch myself doing the same thing. I'm not sure exactly why. Recipes are there for a reason, maybe? I may have promised myself that I would *never, ever* guesstimate like that? Or maybe it's just because it's something that "people who know how to cook" do, and I don't see myself as belonging to that group. Maybe someday, though. And that's probably a good thing.
Overall verdict on both spaghetti and lasagna: easy enough, at least with the recipes I used. Between the two of them, though, I'd definitely go for spaghetti first, and more often–it's less trouble, and less cheesy, which works for me.
Overall verdict on actually cooking homemade meals: it's kind of worth it. Gasp.
Overall verdict on whether this could continue to be a thing: Maybe? I'm at least less scared of raw things now. And as far as laziness vs. love of food goes… it's a toss up. On the other hand, the more I blog about this, the more I could go for some spaghetti. I may have missed lunch.
Anyway, now that I've talked about the cooking: the blog situation. Long story short: I think I'd like to take a break. Sort of a summer vacation. I may drop in sometimes, but I'm not going to guarantee it, and it may not always be on Mondays. The weekly schedule has been good for me, for the most part, but right now I could use some time to rest, refresh my brain, and whatnot. There are still some posts I'd like to do, though, so hopefully I'll be back for those.
In the meantime: have a splendid summer! And thank you, as ever, for reading along. Hopefully I'll see you back here in the fall. Or sooner, since my brain, like a cat, is sometimes a bit unpredictable about what it wants to do. But either way: a happy Monday to you all, and… um… here's this picture of spaghetti.
And with that, I'm off to get lunch!

An interesting and independent point of view of EMC Momentum 2011 Berlin from Alexandra Larsson. As she says:
"(…) I feel a big difference this year – maybe because I have been away for over a year due to my year at the National Defense College. The big difference is that EMC Information Intelligence Group finally seems to get it. For real. Away from the idea that Case Management is something different than Enterprise Content Management. A realization that nice-looking usable user interfaces is a key thing. Understanding that the cloud is a key component of EMC IIG future. Communicating the power of configuration instead of coding is the real power of xCP but not just the interfaces – the whole application. Finally working to get decent analytics to make use of the contextual information that already exists around objects in the repository. Somehow it feels like there is a new executive team in place that wants to be a little bit more bold and wants to move IIG in a certain direction. (…)"

BAPE. Yeezy. OFF-WHITE. Adidas. COMME des GARÇONS.
Brands remained huge at Broccoli City Festival 2016.
Take a look at a few inspirational attendees who showcased outfits that felt Just Souled Out. Take a look at the trendiest festival-goers alongside some hype-worthy apparel.
The past weekend, I gathered with tons of people in the surrounding area to see an amazing lineup of performers at the Gateway D.C. pavilion. The festival strives to promote health and sustainability with music and positive vibes filled the sold-out event despite dreary weather.
This year marks the fourth annual festival and it showcased through its outstanding lineup of artists including my personal favorite artist, Jhené Aiko. Although she remains top in my head, Future also performed an outstanding set. Yet don't be fooled by the headliners, the opening acts held just as great as later performers. Highlights from the day-long event include:
- Anderson Paak jamming on the drums during his set causing the crowd to become lit.
- BJ the Chicago Kid stepped out in Bape attire and performed a tribute to Prince singing Do Me, Baby.
- The Internet celebrated Syd tha Kid's birthday as Goldlink jumped on stage for a brief minute for a hug.
- Oh yes, Goldlink made a cameo during Sango's set and the two joined forces for a song.
- Jhené Aiko performed three songs from Twenty 88's latest album. Her set also included Higher, from her mixtape, and verses from Post To Be and From Time. She also came offstage and into the crowd while singing blissfully into the sunset.
I even managed to find Goldlink himself humbly greeting fans that realized he lurked in the general admission areas for moments.
One of the most unique aspects from the festivities include its unique collection of vendors, artists and sponsors. A Creative DC played a major role in highlighting local talent and bringing them to showcase clothing, art, merchandise and more.
Cheers, Broccoli City Festival and thanks for having me.

Hey, everybody! Welcome to the final day of February!
You know, February 29 is a very special day. It's a day that only comes around once every four years in most cases. Believe it or not, February 29 is a day that occurs every four years except for in years that are not divisible by 400. So, in 1900, there was no February 29, but in 2000 there was. That being said, there will be no February 29 in the year 2100...but that really doesn't matter since only a small fraction of us will be alive to see 2100 in - unless I happen to live to be 118, that is.
So, since it is the 29th, I thought that I would a special Monday Timeline for all of you. Normally I would have waited until Tuesday, but since the next time February 29 will fall on a Tuesday won't be until 2028 and I don't know if this blog will last until then, I'm doing one today.
So, here's some of the events that have taken place on this special day.
1504 - Christopher Columbus convinces Native Americans to give him supplies using his knowledge of the lunar eclipse in his favour
1712 - As a result of Sweden wanting to go back to the Old Style calendar, a February 30 is added to the calendar in Sweden.
1796 - The Jay Treaty between Great Britain and the United States comes into force
1892 - The community of St. Petersburg, Florida is incorporated
1904 - Saxophonist/bandleader Jimmy Dorsey (d. 1957) is born in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania
1912 - The Piedra Movediza of Tandil falls and breaks
1916 - Singer/actress Dinah Shore (d. 1994) is born in Winchester, Tennessee
1936 - Actor Alex Rocco (d. 2015) is born in Cambridge, Massachusetts
1940 - During World War II, Finland initiates Winter War peace negotiations
1944 - The Admiralty Islands are invaded in Operation Brewer
1960 - An earthquake destroys the city of Agadir, Morocco, killing 12,000
1964 - Australian swimmer Dawn Fraser swims the 100-meter freestyle competition in 58.9 seconds - a new world record
1972 - South Korea withdraws 11,000 of its 48,000 troops from Vietnam
1980 - Gordie Howe scores his 800th goal
1988 - Desmond Tutu is arrested with 100 clergymen in South Africa for anti-apartheid protests
1996 - 123 people are killed following the crash of Faucett Flight 251 in the Andes Mountains
2012 - Monkees singer Davy Jones passes away at the age of 66
Now for celebrity birthdays, we don't really have a whole lot of them, but turning one year (or is it four years) older and actually getting an honest to goodness birthday this year are Joss Ackland, Tempest Storm, Hermione Lee, Patricia A. McKillip, Al Autry, Jonathan Coleman, J. Randy Tarraborelli, Tony Robbins, Frank Woodley, Antonio Sabato Jr., Zoe Baker, Ja Rule, Chris Conley, Simon Gagne, Rakhee Thakrar, Cam Ward, Mark Foster, Majesty Rose, and Claudia Williams.
So, given that February 29 is a special day, I thought I would choose a very special date to focus on.
That date is February 29, 1940.
Okay, so as we close out the month of February, a couple of major events have just concluded.
February happens to be "Black History Month", and despite what Stacey Dash has said about it, is a celebration of all of the contributions of people who are African, African-American, African-Canadian, etc, as well as some of the hardships that these people have had to endure for centuries. It's an important piece of the history curriculum that should be focused on, and a lot of people from Rosa Parks to Nelson Mandela, and even Oprah Winfrey have made their mark in the history books. February 29 happens to be the conclusion of Black History month, and today's subject is a name that definitely belongs in that category.
As well, the Academy Awards aired its 88th ceremony last night, and while all of the winners were celebrated last night, the actual nominations caused controversy with the #OscarsSoWhite hashtag. And, yes, I did do a blog post issuing my thoughts about it. If you click HERE, you can read it. Well, this Tuesday Timeline subject is also about the Oscars as well.
In fact, I may as well go ahead and tell you what the subject is. Today marks the 76th anniversary of the day that a woman made history because on February 29, 1940, the first African-American won an Academy Award.
That person was actress Hattie McDaniel, who at the time was thirty-four years old. She was born June 10, 1895 as the thirteenth child of two former slaves, and she had an interest in performing, writing songs, and acting. And during the 1920s and 1930s, she did everything she could to satisfy her love of the arts, all while facing the hardships of discrimination and poverty.
But it wouldn't be until 1939 that McDaniel would gain notoriety for the film role that would earn her that Academy Award.
The film, of course, was "Gone with the Wind", a 1939 drama that became the highest grossing film that year - even making more money than "The Wizard of Oz"! And while the competition was fierce regarding the coveted roles of Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler, there was just as much competition for the role of Mammy, the maid of the O'Hara manor. Initially, Eleanor Roosevelt had suggested that her own maid, Elizabeth McDuffie be given the part, but that suggestion was denied. And even Hattie McDaniel had reservations about even auditioning for the role of Mammy. She was by all accounts a comic actress, and she didn't think she quite fit in for a role in a serious historical romance like "Gone with the Wind".
However, McDaniel wasn't about to walk away without a fight, and she reportedly showed up to audition for the part in an authentic maid uniform. It seemed to do the trick, as McDaniel was soon cast in the role, although a popular tale that seems to have made the rounds was that actor Clark Gabel had made the suggestion to producers to hire McDaniel as Mammy. I don't know if we'll ever know the real truth, although Gabel and McDaniel had become close. In fact, when the film was being premiered in Atlanta, Georgia, and executives from MGM had been told to exclude all black actors from attending the function, Gable had been so disgusted by this decision that he almost boycotted the premiere. It was McDaniel herself who convinced him to go.
It actually makes me really sad to know that the woman who became a huge star in that film was never considered worthy enough to attend the Atlanta premiere because of the colour of her skin. Could you imagine something like that happening in 2016? There would be so much outrage! It is to McDaniel's credit that she stayed classy through the whole ordeal. She had every reason not to, mind you, but she took the high road during the whole thing, which may have swayed the Academy Awards committee to vote for her to win.
Not only was she the first African-American to win an Academy Award, she was also the first African-American to even be nominated! And even though the Atlanta premiere turned out to be a complete debacle, she was allowed to attend the Hollywood premiere (at the insistence of studio head David Selznick) where her image was restored onto all movie posters and programs.
And to close off this piece, have a look at Hattie McDaniel's acceptance speech, as given on February 29, 1940...

You Are Not "Less Than" and No One is "Better" Than You
We are all made of the same thing… bone and muscle and stardust and atoms. We all live in the same world, breathe the same air, require the same nutrients to stay alive, and mostly all want the same things at the end of the day… to be loved and live a joyful life.
Most people walk around not feeling good enough. We think we have to prove ourselves and become better and have more things to be loved. We don't think we can add enough value to the world and we have to earn our right to exist.
These are the messages most of us have been taught since we were children. Most of us weren't taught that simply being us is enough. We were taught that we were flawed and had to become perfect in the eyes of others to be worthy of living. We started to compare and judge and become depressed.
Life doesn't have to be this way. You can choose at any moment to free yourself of all of it by simply being you. The real you. The you that you want to punish and hide and keep secret and change to become someone else's idea of perfect. Allow all of you to be loved by loving all of you.

Today we are continuing in our series on the Sermon on the Mount. Here is today's text.
Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.' But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one. Matthew 5:33-37 NKJV
There are two subjects here. The first is regarding oaths and the second is about honesty. Again Jesus is giving us a contrast between the letter and the spirit of the law. There was a law against perjury under Mosaic Law, but that law allowed for different kinds of oaths some of which were binding, some of which were not. People looking for loopholes in oaths or contracts is nothing new. If anything, dishonesty comes very natural to us. There is that old saying about never having to teach a child to lie. It is part of our fallen nature. Due to man's tendency towards dishonesty, men like to require oaths and contracts in order to bind men to their word. The letter of the law allowed for a system where not all oaths were binding so that men felt they could get out of their word just by using a kind of oath that was essentially meaningless. That was because if your oath was not done in the letter of the law, it was not a binding oath.
That brings us to Jesus. He takes the law regarding performing your oaths to the Lord and takes away any loophole. How does He do this? Well listen to the rest. "But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black." Jesus says if you are going to make an oath, you should only make it to the Lord. Jesus is saying do not take an oath before any other created thing as those oaths are meaningless. Make that oath to God and God alone and stand in account to Him and Him alone for how well you keep it. In other words, Jesus is telling us to only take an oath if you mean to keep it and only give that oath to Who can truly hold you responsible if you do not.
Some say that this means that Christians should never take any oath. I do not believe this is saying that at all. What Jesus is saying is that oaths need to be reserved for solemn occasions and if you do take an oath it needs to be by God alone. I say that because even the Apostles took oaths at various times. What Jesus is saying is to not take the Lord's name in vain. Do not be flippant about when you take an oath. For example, I have heard people gossip and when someone is skeptical the gossip will say something like "hand to God." Certainly when spreading gossip, one should not be taking an oath to God. But even in just every day conversations, we use the Lord's name and swear by it with no forethought as to just what we are doing. We throw His name around like it is nothing and swear by it as though it meant nothing. Using the name of God in vain has become commonplace, even among Christians and that should not be so. It is utterly disrespectful to be flippant about using the name of God. If you going to invoke the name of God, you really need to consider it and mean it.
Jesus also talks about honesty. He next says "But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.'" In other words, Jesus is telling us to mean what we say. Do not be evasive. Do not be deceitful with you answers. How many times have you said "I will pray (or think) about it" when you knew full well the answer was "no." How many times have you made a promise that you knew would never be fulfilled. How many times have you said "maybe" when you knew the answer. All of that is deceitful and should not be in the lives of a child of God. Our word must count for something. Do you understand how important it is for the word of the Christian to be rock solid? Think about it. We are given the responsibility of spreading the Gospel message to the world. If our word can not be trusted, how can anyone trust our presentation of the Gospel? People will not accept the Truth as truth from a mouth that is known to lie. Our word is of the utmost importance and so we must be honest. We should never have to say "I swear" or "I promise." We should just have to say what we need to say and have it be accepted as truth. Besides, why would you need to promise something if you always told the truth? The very idea that you have to make promises shows that there is an issue with your credibility and that is why it is on the evil one. Let your word be your bond with no other extra promises or swearing necessary.
Jesus again gives the contrast between the letter and the spirit of the law and that debate rages until this day. If you have ever read a legal contract or even a court ruling, they are generally written in some kind of language that makes them impossible to understand. They are written in exact specific language to not allow for any loopholes. Of course, there are people who are experts in finding loopholes and so our courts are filled with people interpreting the letter of a contract in ways to their own advantage to the point where a third party has to figure it out. That is the letter of the law. It is about trying to either write a contract or interpret a contract to suit your own needs so that you can still cheat without breaking the letter of the law. The spirit of the law is so much different. The spirit of the law says not even take an oath unless you mean to keep it and only in the most solemn of occasions. Furthermore, you are to make that oath in a way that holds you to it. Finally, if you do not take an oath you are still called to be honest in your answers. In other words, the letter is from the perspective of seeing how far you can go without breaking the contract but the spirit teaches to go as far as you can to fulfill it. That is what Jesus is teaching and that is the example we need to take for our lives. Be honest with your answers and you will never need an oath. If you do need an oath, make sure you consider just Who it is that you are making yourself accountable to and ask if what you are taking an oath about is worthy of the Name of God. Some say that honesty is the best policy. For the Christian, honesty is the only policy.
The integrity of the upright will guide them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them. Proverbs 11:3 NKJV

Paul Graham, as part of an article on Yahoo!'s problems:
By 1998, Yahoo was the beneficiary of a de facto Ponzi scheme. Investors were excited about the Internet. One reason they were excited was Yahoo's revenue growth. So they invested in new Internet startups. The startups then used the money to buy ads on Yahoo to get traffic. Which caused yet more revenue growth for Yahoo, and further convinced investors the Internet was worth investing in.

When patients first visit us for their free initial exam, they are impressed with our laidback office atmosphere, our games for kids, and our complimentary cookies, coffee, and water. Our goal is to help everyone who visits us feel comfortable, like they are a member of the family. Our confident, friendly, experienced team wants to make sure our patients have great experiences as we straighten their teeth. We offer orthodontics in Texarkana, Texas, as well as Magnolia and De Queen, Arkansas. Your entire family can receive excellent smiles when you visit one of our office locations for orthodontic care.
Stacee Burson, DMD, MS
2016 is a special year for me because I am celebrating 25 years of straightening smiles! Since my kids are grown, all my energy and effort is poured into my work. Touching the lives of so many people every day and having a positive impact on them is very rewarding. I truly love my job and my patients, and I can't think of anything else I'd rather do. Orthodontics is my life.
To treat patients with so many unique personalities can occasionally be challenging. This teaches me patience and reminds me to be a good listener and communicator. I thrive on the relationships I build with those I serve. Each patient comes to me with their own story, and I am a part of that as I watch them grow and mature, seeing their personalities blossom as their healthy, new smile develops.
I had braces when I was a junior in high school, and didn't get them off until I was a sophomore in college. I was missing five permanent teeth and had huge spaces. I was so self-conscious of my appearance that I wouldn't smile unless I covered my mouth with my hand! Seeing how orthodontics changed my life, increased my self-esteem and confidence, and gave me the ability to smile naturally was a turning point in my life. I always knew I wanted to go into the medical field, and orthodontics was my calling. I wanted to do for others what had been done for me. And so I put myself through school, becoming the first female orthodontist to practice in the state of Arkansas!
Education & Continuing Education
- Bachelor of Science in biology, Southern Arkansas University, Magna Cum Laude

As an oral healthcare professional, I know it is essential to keep up-to-date on the latest techniques, procedures, and technologies in order to make sure I'm providing the best care possible to my patients.

Personal Life
I am a native of Ashdown, AR, but have called Texarkana, TX, my home since 1992. My husband, Tom, married me in 2012, and we still feel like newlyweds. I have two wonderful children. My daughter, Haley, graduated from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2015 and is now completing a residency program at Lee Specialty Clinic, working with special needs patients. My son, Jake, is working as an Industrial Instrumentation Technician and Master Welder with H & K here in Texarkana.I also have three step-children. Cole is a recently discharged Navy Veteran who attends the University of Arkansas, pursuing a Bachelor degree in mechanical engineering. Sarah is in graduate school at the University of Arkansas pursuing a Master degree in mental health counseling and recently married Wes Clawson. Sean is working at Smith Blair as a mechanical engineer. My family is rounded out by two dogs, Bizzee and Chloe, and seven granddogs. I enjoy spending the day at Lake Texoma, hanging out with friends on the dock, and playing golf.
Commitment to the Community
I'm a mentor for local high school students who are interested in going into the dental field. I have them come do a job shadow day at the office, and I was recently approached by Oklahoma State University to offer the same opportunity to their pre-dental students. I provide free dental care to underserved patients through the Texas Mission of Mercy program. For more than 20 years, our office has sponsored local baseball and softball teams, and I sponsor needy families at the holidays and regularly donate dog and cat food as well as cat litter to our local animal shelter. I also donate clothes to the Battered Women's Shelter.
Dee—Orthodontic Assistant & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
I love seeing the beautiful smiles we've created for our patients after treatment is completed. When the braces come off and a patient sees their new smile for the first time, we are all cheering for them. We know we've made a real and positive change in their life, and that they will be able to move through the world feeling confident about their appearance.I assist Dr. Stacee Burson chairside during procedures. I prepare for the placement of the braces, change archwires, and show patients how to wear their elastics. I also teach patients how to properly brush their teeth once the braces have been placed in order to keep their teeth clean and healthy. I also make the in-office Essix retainers and order all clinical supplies for the practice. Outside of the office, you'll often find me spending time with my three children.
Sharon—Financial Coordinator
My favorite part of my job is our patients! I love being part of a process that creates beautiful smiles and increases confidence. As the financial coordinator, I handle all of our patients' financial and insurance needs. I am also cross-trained as an orthodontic assistant, records and lab assistant and scheduling coordinator so there is no telling where you will see me! When I am not working you will find me with my family. I have been happily married for 27 years. I am the mother of four awesome kids and Nana to one extra special little one. We enjoy the beach, hunting, camping and spending time together.
Laura—New Patient & Treatment Coordinator, Orthodontic Assistant, & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
I love the relationships we build at Orthodontics by Dr. Burson! Our patients and their families are amazing, and our team is second to none! From the moment a new patient arrives, I guide them through our process: A tour of our fabulous office complete with an introduction of the "Burson Dream Team", I then review initial paperwork, complete an exam with Dr. Burson, and follow the visit up with a customized treatment recommendation and payment options. I also handle our public relations, our practice marketing, and I am cross-trained as a Registered Orthodontic Assistant. I love what I do and I know that you won't get better care anywhere else! My personal life revolves around GOD and family. I have been married to my best friend, Scotty, for 25 years. When you come to our office, you'll see pictures and hear stories about my wonderful children and grandchildren.
Brittany—Orthodontic Assistant & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
Seeing our patients smile when they see their new smile without braces makes me fall in love with my job all over again. My goal is to make our patients comfortable and help them enjoy having braces. My work here involves assisting in the clinic or at the front desk, as needed. I also make the in-office Essix retainers.I sing, dance, and laugh with all our patients to make the appointments go by fast. That's how my life is. I am happily married and have one son. If you see me out of the office, I will probably be shopping, camping, or just enjoying time with family and friends.
Amanda—Orthodontic Assistant & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
I enjoy working with our awesome patients! Watching their smile transform is so cool and seeing them so excited when they see their finished new smile for the first time is great. They are sometimes jumping up and down with happiness, and our whole team is right there, being happy with them. Dr. Burson is so good at caring for our patients! She has treated my entire family, so we all have fabulous smiles.My work duties include preparing a patient's teeth for braces, performing routine adjustments, taking photographs and X-rays, and giving home instructions on the proper care of braces. I also sterilize our treatment areas and equipment, talk with the patient and their family about the progress that we are making, and answer any questions they have. I prepare needed supplies for transport to our satellite offices as well. As for my personal life, my husband and I have been married for 22 years and we have three beautiful children. My oldest son is an active, deployed Marine, and my younger kids keep us busy with their sports.
Star - Orthodontic Assistant, Spanish Translator & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
I truly love my job! I love seeing our patients' faces when they finally get to see their new smile, and watching children grow and getting to know not only them but also their families is the best part of my job. It is very rewarding to help with translating so that our Spanish-speaking patients and families feel at home. I am also cross-trained as a scheduling coordinator and records assistant, and can help out in other areas of our office as needed. Outside of work you can find me enjoying the outdoors with my husband and two children, and rescuing animals of all kinds.
Taylor - Scheduling Coordinator & Texas Registered Dental Assistant
I enjoy getting to meet and greet everyone as they come into our office and making delicious chocolate chip cookies for everyone to enjoy. I also love to make people smile and find great enjoyment in watching our patients build their self-confidence as their smile transforms. I also love the dance party we have when patients get their braces off! I am cross-trained as a records assistant, and my favorite part of my job, aside from watching our patients smile, is taking X-rays. It's so neat to get to see how the teeth develop and how each mouth (and X-ray) is unique. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and my dogs, Roogie and Maple, and can usually be found outside when I'm not at the office.

PLEASE NOTE: There are so many great places to hit the hills with your toboggan. Not all of these places may allow sledding. It is up to you to check. Sledding is done at your own risk.
Here are a few suggestions:
Annapolis Royal: The slopes of Fort Anne (MAP)
Aylesford: Head north of Aylesford to Brow of Mountain Road
Berwick: Grandview Manor
Falmouth: Avon Valley Golf Course
Greenwood: the hill beside the community center/outdoor pool in Greenwood, or the hill in front of the Canex Airplane museum. The Cannex hill in Greenwood has a new plane installed for the museum. It's made it more difficult to sled there, but it may still be possible. MAP
Hantsport: Hantsport Community Centre – There is a huge hill back towards the baseball field. There is lots of parking and great benches to sit on to watch and take pictures.
Kentville: Burger Hill is located near the Research Station on Route 1 (MAP).
Kentville Memorial Park; Oakdene Soccer fields, KCA school; there is a smaller hill that's good for younger children at the baseball diamond and soccer field near AVR (off Oakdene Ave). There's an access road beside the white house that's two houses away if you're walking or a small parking lot on the street behind Oakdene Ave.
New Minas: Lockhart Ryan Park by the ball diamond (MAP)
Port Williams: The hill behind the elementary school (MAP)
Windsor: Haliburton House Museum , Fort Edward (the side facing the river), Kings Edgehill School (there is a longer slower hill and a shorter, steeper hill)
Wolfville: The front lawn of University Hall on the Acadia Campus (MAP)

"He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness". ??Psalms 23:2
This beautiful green pasture reminds me of the countryside I loved to roam as a boy growing up in England. The path in this painting represents our journey through life, and Christ is on the path watching over us. He is the Savior of all who will accept Him, but most importantly He is the Savior for us individually. In this painting the Savior is caring for the individual lamb while also watching over the entire flock. The healing, comfort, and peace that only He can offer is a gift that is given individually in our lives. More than anything in this image I want people to feel the love and peace that comes from knowing that our Savior is there, watching over us.

Did you ever get really excited about going back to school after the summer holidays?
I did, every year, not because I was looking forward to learning new stuff or wearing my new uniform (although they were good), but just because I had a new pencil-case, filled to the brim with new pens and things! I used a Parker fountain pen (other manufacturers are available) and underlined everything in green, rather than red which I thought looked a bit aggressive?!
These days I still have a thing for pens. But it's expanded to note books of all shapes and sizes with various patterns – probably stemming from my love for covering my text books with old wallpaper. I also enjoy decorating folders now that I've discovered sticky-backed-plastic!! Then there's the whole dividers, plastic wallets and getting things in order.
One of my favourite parts of one of my previous office jobs was going through the stationery catalogue for routine orders of paper and paperclips etc as well as setting up new desks with in-trays, pencil pots, files, furniture, you name it. There was nearly always something on each page that took my fancy. Imagine my delight when in another office job when I found they had a label maker!! I was in my element and the office was tidied and organised to within an inch of its life. I'm not all that offended when people compare me to Monica from Friends 😀
Update – 12th Sept 2012
My friends know me so well!!

Media Advisory: Procter & Gamble Brings Mobile Relief to Victims of Hurricane Isaac with New P&G Relief Center, Tide Loads of Hope, Duracell Rapid Responder, and Charmin Restrooms
Mobile Showers, Restrooms and Personal Care Kits Join Laundry and Power Relief Service, bringing aid to residents affected by Hurricane Isaac
Services available to all families or individuals in need of showers, restrooms and personal care items as well as laundry and temporary power use in the wake of Hurricane Isaac.
Beginning Sunday, September 2nd, the P&G Relief Center will be stationed in LaPlace, Louisiana to provide showers, restroom facilities and personal care kits to victims of Hurricane Isaac. This service will be free to all victims, responders and their families.
The Mobile Relief Center will be joining P&G's Tide Loads of Hope, which will be at the same location to provide free full service laundry to relief workers and residents, who are encouraged to drop off their laundry to be washed, dried and folded, free of charge. No bedding, jackets, or other large pieces will be accepted. Services will be available Tuesday, September 4th.
The Duracell Rapid Responder – the newest member of Duracell's Power Forward fleet – arrived on Thursday, and is moving throughout the New Orleans area to provide power relief in the areas of greatest need. At each truck stop, people will have access to charging lockers for mobile devices, computers, WiFi and a battery distribution center to help them reconnect with loved ones and stay powered up when they need it most.
Charmin Restrooms will also be deployed for the first time to aid in the disaster relief and will be in a separate location to provide additional bathrooms and showers for those looking to meet basic needs and freshen up.
We know that in the wake of a disaster, many of the simple things like clean teeth, clean clothes, a shower and making a phone call to loved ones become difficult. Recent storms have devastated parts of the country and have forced many residents from their homes, leaving them without basic needs and resources. So, in an effort to help restore a sense of normalcy, we are expanding P&G's Mobile Relief efforts to include mobile units with shower and restroom facilities and Personal Care Kits. Our people and our brands are joining together to help relief workers and families whose homes, clothing and personal items have been impacted and to help renew a sense of hope in a difficult time.
P&G Relief Center & Tide Loads of Hope: 300 West Airline Highway, LaPlace, LA in front of the Home Depot
Duracell Rapid Responder: at the Home Depot with Tide & the Relief Center from 8AM-10AM daily and visiting other locations of need upon request
Charmin Restrooms: 1633 West Airline Highway LaPlace, LA 70068, in front of the Family Dollar
P&G Mobile Relief Center: Opening Sunday, September 2nd at 12PM, hours: 8AM-6PM
Tide Loads of Hope: Opening Tuesday, September 4th, hours: 8AM-6PM
Duracell Rapid Responder: Currently in the area, will be on-site at Home Depot 8AM-10AM daily
Charmin Restrooms: Opening Midday Sunday, September 2nd, hours: 8AM-6PM
We expect to stay on location for about 5 days or, until the immediate needs of the local population are met. If we find that the demand for our services is continuing, we will try to stay until people's need are being met by more long-term services. Once we find that the demand for these services is low and people no longer need our help, we'll provide 24 hours notice before we discontinue services and leave the area. For ongoing recovery updates, follow us on Twitter @ProcterGamble, @TideLoadsofHope, @Duracell and @Charmin or "Like" us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ProcterGamble, www.facebook.com/Tide, www.facebook.com/Duracell, and www.facebook.com/Charmin
P&G has a long history of responding to natural disasters. Seven years ago, we launched Tide Loads of Hope, to provide much needed free laundry services to families affected by Hurricane Katrina. Today, the program includes the Tide Loads of Hope truck outfitted with 32 energy-efficient Frigidaire® Affinity™ washers and dryers. Collectively, Tide has washed over 49,000 loads of laundry for more than 35,000 families impacted by disasters since the program launched. Duracell brings its reliable power to communities affected by disasters through the Duracell Power Relief program. Trailers, trucks and stationary units allow victims of natural disasters to recharge, reconnect and recover by providing the power they need to stay safe and connected with what's most important to them. Today we're launching our newest efforts - the P&G Mobile Relief Centers and Charmin Restrooms – as part of our overall effort to touch and improve lives in the wake of disasters.
Personal Care Kits and Mobile Relief include: Always, Secret, Pantene, OralB, Crest, Ivory, Tide, Duracell, Gillette, Old Spice, Head & Shoulders, Pampers, Aussie, Mr. Clean, Febreeze, Swiffer and Charmin.
People across the country can help support Tide Loads of Hope by purchasing a Tide Loads of Hope vintage tee by visiting www.tideloadsofhope.com. All profits from the tees go towards helping families affected by disaster.

WBCA Division III Top-25 Coaches' Poll (Jan. 17)
GENESEO, N.Y. - The SUNY Geneseo women's basketball team was ranked No. 23 in the latest Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Division III national poll, released Tuesday.
After being listed as receiving votes in the first five polls of the season, the Knights moved into the top-25 for the first time since finishing the 2014-15 campaign with a No. 19 ranking following a run to the NCAA Divison III Tournament Sweet 16 and a SUNYAC Championship. Geneseo was also ranked No. 20 in the first poll of the 2015-16 season.
The Knights are off to the fourth-best winning-streak to start a season in program history after improving to 15-0 with a 62-60 victory over visiting RIT on Tuesday. Geneseo is also unbeaten in the SUNYAC with an 8-0 mark.
A victory opposite visiting Potsdam on Friday (7:30 p.m.) would tie the the 1991-92 team for the third-longest run to start a season undefeated, trailing only the 1992-93 (27) and 1994-95 (20) squads.
Entering the week as one of only 10 undefeated team in Division III, Geneseo has proven to be one of the nation's top defensive squads. The team was ranked fifth in scoring defense, only allowing the opposition to score 46.5 points per game, while also sitting ninth in field goal percentage defense (.313) and 25th in rebounding margin (+9.7).

Foods that are gluten free and allergy friendly are 2-4 times more expensive than the typical grocery items and almost impossible to find in local food pantries. No one knows this better than Claire* who has celiac disease and other food intolerances. She receives a modest $15 per month in FSP (Food Supplement Program) benefits to aid her in purchasing gluten free and allergy friendly food. Step into Claire's shoes and experience what it is like to choose between hunger and eating something that will make her ill.
Claire is now able to find gluten-free food at the Howard County Food Bank during her monthly visits thanks to generous donors like you. "It used to be next to impossible to find safe food at the Food Bank. I would leave there with a small bag of items and go home to bare cupboards, while other people left with grocery carts full of food. Then, I would have to wait another month to return to see if there was anything I could eat. I am grateful for S.A.F.E. Food Pantry since I can now find food that works for me. S.A.F.E. is a real blessing for me."
Financial contributions help people like Claire obtain the gluten free and allergy friendly food that they need to thrive. Help us assist more clients with gluten free and allergy friendly food with a donation today.

I would personally choose health over hunger. I know that being hungry results to very bad decisions. In the long run, you'll have to realize that health should be prioritized over eating unhealthy food. If you don't have the discipline to control your hunger, you'll regret it at the end. I hope that this will be a wake up call to all the people who don't give health importance when making deciding what to eat.

Report: Details on Upcoming BMW 7 Series Redesign Emerge
If you've kept an eye on the automotive news circuit recently, perhaps you've seen the spy shots of BMW's redesigned 7 Series being tested on the road. This spacious sedan is preparing to go head-to-head with Mercedes' S-Class and Lexus' LS. In anticipation of the sixth generation's release, details have emerged about the new 7 Series–most of them confirmed by BMW.
What do we know about the latest BMW 7 Series? Find out below!
5 Things We Know About the New BMW 7 Series
BMW's 7 Series is undergoing its first total redesign since the current generation began in 2008. Here's what we can anticipate with the next-generation models:
- The new 7 Series will drop nearly 300 pounds in total weight. The latest model will significantly rely on Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP), which BMW has been busily developing, along with lightweight aluminum and steel.
- It will probably feature a smaller turbo engine and possibly a plug-in hybrid version. As proven in its i Series, BMW knows it takes less muscle to achieve the same level of power at reduced weight.
- It will possess a slew of cutting-edge technology features, including the iDrive system's gesture-based controls, Driving Assistance options, and automated valet parking.
- With self-leveling air suspension, adaptive damper controls, and roll stabilization, it will be much more comfortable to drive.
- It will resemble the BMW Vision Future Luxury Concept from last year.
Mercedes-Benz and Cadillac are making similar updates to their luxury sedan classes, including making them lighter and more tech-savvy. Will BMW remain impressive enough to stand apart from the crowd?
