Smart Start #1 is #1 in my book. They meet my child's needs and go over and beyond. I know what my child has eaten and when he has been changed. They are the best. My child is always happy to come every morning. He loves Smart Start #1 and so do I. I recommend Smart Start to anyone that wants the best for their children. Wow, what peace of mind. Thank you.
For all your patience day to day, For every tear you wipe away, for little hands you gently hold, and all the stories you have told. For consoling tender hearts, and all the wisdom you impart, for silly songs and quiet times, for peaceful naps and nursery rhymes. For teaching children how to share, for being kind and being fair. For every shoe that you have tied, and thoughtful words that instill pride. For all the sweet things that you do, to help the children all year through, for being there in place of me….I'm grateful and will always be!
Sincerely Thank You!
My child has been attending Smart Start #2 for the past 3 years and this year she is being transported to Smart Start #5 from there for LPS Pre-K.I love Ms. Summer at Smart Start #2 and Ms. Whalen at Smart Start #5. They really focus on the kids. My daughter used to be shy but not anymore. They take the time to work with each kid on what they need to know. They helped my daughter learn to tie her shoes and she can count to 50 already! They also take the time to make my kids feel special.
We have loved Smart Start #4. We can leave our son while we go to work and not worry about him. The teachers are very kind and caring and treat our son as one of their own children. He always seems happy whenever we drop him off in the morning and when we pick him up in the afternoon. The center is very clean and well organized. Our son loves being around the other kids in his classroom and we think this experience has helped him develop social and play skills. He has fun with peers while we are able to work with peace-of-mind that he is in a safe loving environment.
Most parents can agree it's hard to trust someone else to watch over our babies. My son has attended Smart Start #4 since he was a little over 1 year old and we love it! Smart Start has helped my son and I both grow as people. The teachers really care and have helped our family through the various stages of toddler life like potty training and even learning how to read and write. The Pre-K program is awesome and they are always making learning interesting to my son through art, music, and field trips. Thank you ladies for taking such good care of my son, it's a very important job!
My children have been here for almost 3 years. I've had opportunities to switch day cares and chose not to. When I've moved away, I made the commute to take my children to their original day care Smart Start #4. The staff is understanding not only with children but with parents too. My child knows everyone and is almost always excited to come, I'd never take that from them
My Child has attended Smart Start #5 for 8 months and I totally recommend this school. Ms. Whalen and Ms. Nash are the best. Education is a big concern for them and Ana improved a lot in their class. Ms. Whalen is my ride or die! She wakes up every morning to be with my daughter at 5:30 a.m. so I can go to work. I wouldn't be able to manage without this school. Great teachers, wonderful staff. I wouldn't trade it for the world!
My daughter has been attending this day care for 7 years and my son for his whole life. I really appreciate Ms. Amanda and Ms. Nash for how much they care about the children. The ladies are great with my kids and my kids love seeing them each day. They have also really helped with potty training and attitudes. It's wonderful to see my kids grow each day with the help of the staff at daycare. Carson has learned nursery rhymes and sings songs. Gaby learned to tie her shoes. I love this day care!
Jackson has always had difficulty with daycare centers which made it difficult for me to work. Many day cares said they were equipped to handle a special needs child, but many gave up on Jackson quickly and cast him out. Since coming to Smart Start #6, Jackson looks forward to coming to school and learning. He is able to read us books, recite his alphabet, his numbers, etc. More importantly, a little boy who would never interact with his peers is now making friends. I truly believe the caring and understanding from the staff and their ability to work with Jackson and myself has made a lasting impact on my son's life
Ace has loved attending Smart Start #6 and has made such huge strides in his 4 years here. He started in the baby room and now attends pre-k where he excels in his class because of the education he received at Playcare. The staff has been amazing and friendly especially Ms. Aspri who has become one of Ace's very best friends. He talks about her at home and school and the bond he shares with her is very special. Attending here has been an amazing decision!
I am beyond grateful for the way that Tanisha and Aspri have taught my twins. They are patient and understanding of my children's wants and needs. If I have any concerns they are always there to explain their plans and expectations of my twins. I love the way they do their jobs they are AMAZING!
Being our first child, we were a little nervous leaving her at day care and compared many before we chose Smart Start #6. The staff is well trained and friendly. They take the time to work with her on her walking and early learning skills. She loves her teacher Ms. Melissa and looks forward to seeing her every day.
I would like to say that I \'m very impressed with Smart Start #1. They have been there for my children's needs from the very beginning. My child Riley has learned so much since she has been there. Riley has overcome the challenge of of potty training and is learning her ABC's and 123"s. The staff is amazing especially Ms. Mika, Ms. Rhonda and Ms. Destiny! Sending the girls to Smart Start #1 is the best decision I've made for child care.
I am very impressed with the care of my children at Smart Start #1. They treat my children as their own and are very pleasant and clean. My children love coming here and it gives me peace to know they are safe while I'm at work. My kids have been coming here for 5 years. This place is family.
We have been at Smart Start #1 for 4 years. I love that Sunni is comfortable with all staff members and she always come home saying she had a great day! She has even learned her ABC's and 123's. Thank you for all the love and attention.
I have had 5 children attend Playcare over the past 8 years. My children have thrived in social skills and excelled in their education even into elementary school. I am so appreciative of the support in raising my children to develop into amazing individuals.
We have been attending Smart Start #6 for 4 years. Ms. Aspri has taken great care of my sensitive epileptic Cameron. Ms. Tanisha is probably the sweetest one that I have met in this center and she is always extremely patient with the kids and the parents. Ms. Wynn cooks so good that sometimes I wish I could do lunch here!
We have been attending Smart Start #6 for 2 years and the kids are comfortable going here. They've become more interactive and communicate better with me. Khalil has learned how to potty from coming here. The staff is nice especially Ms. Aspri and Ms. Tanisha they meet all the children's needs.
Switching my sons to Smart Start #1 is the best decision I've made. The staff is amazing. I love that they are so caring and affectionate. I just appreciate everything the staff has done.
Hailey has been attending Smart Start #2 since she was a baby. She loves coming to daycare. My baby does not cry or fuss. I can tell she's very happy at this facility. I enjoy dropping her off. I go to work knowing my child will be well taken care of. We love this place. I know Hailey does too.
I'm pleased with the care that my child gets at Smart Start #4 and how well they work with the kids. My son loves the teachers there and has learned a lot: A,B,Cs, numbers, and colors. Thank you!
I am pleased with how the staff at Smart Start #5 care for my child like he is their own. Lucas has learned so much in the little time that he has been here. The teachers are all wonderful and loving people who want to teach the kids early.
When my children first started here my boys knew very few words and struggled to pronounce what little they did know. Ms. Aspri has been phenomenal, to say the least, at teaching them to talk. In only 3 days she was able to potty train them with minimal accidents, if any, and has always made all 3 of my kids feel loved and welcome. My children also enjoy the warm "Good Morning" we get every day from Ms. Tanisha. My daughter looks forward to meeting Ms. Wynn every morning at the kitchen for her breakfast. All the ladies here are amazing and Kind. Mr. Freddie is awesome too!

The classic sound of the Hammond B3, mixed with soulful sax and vocals on a journey into the crossroads where Blues and Groove meets Jazz.
The band's distinctive style and sound is centred around the classic Hammond B3 organ. With interplay from soulful sax and vocals. All driven by a strong swing, jazz, Latin rhythm and percussion section. Their music is a journey into the crossroads where Blues and Jazz intersect.

Sax - On sax is one of Melbourne's most in-demand horn players, Jeff Mead. Besides featuring in some of Melbourne's top big swing bands, Jeff plays regularly in The Andrea Marr Band and other well-established Blues acts.
Vocals and Percussion - Front man, soul and jazz singer, Peter Jackson has performed with Paul Kelly, The Australian Blues Brothers Show', 'Grand Wazoo', 'The Swing Genies' and other funk, soul and jazz bands on the Australian circuit. Originally, Peter led his own bands including early 90's popular Melbourne pub soulsters, 'Sticky Soul'. In this line up, Peter's percussion adds a touch of Latin to the groove rhythms with congas and a range of Latin hand instruments.

The Greenbelt Company
Beron Dook
A quick-witted, silver-tongued minstrel with a heart of gold.
_Taken from a excerpt from The Book of Beron Dook_:
Beron. What was the woman thinking, naming me that?
The halfling sighed gently, his feet padding along the dimly lit cobblestone path. His eyes wandered around, never settling for very long, always in motion.
How fitting. My sleeping mind fits the rest of me, too. Just a half-man, walking. Always walking. Never settling. Beron Dook. She thought it was a portent, a promise of great things. That the gods would look down and raise up one with such a ridiculous name. No, this name's just hung over me all my years. Mocking.
Beron shivered, the night chill cutting through his light trousers and linen shirt. He pulled his cloak tighter around him, warding off the chill while adjusting the bow stave in the case on his back.
Well, I guess I can't hold it against her too much. She'd barely named me before that fire caught her. The gods know where dad was. Or who he is, for that matter.
Funny, walking usually cleared his mind, never muddling it with maudlin thoughts. I've got to let that go. It's been years now, and besides, I was young. I've made my own way, I can keep on making it!He cleared his throat and began to recite a piece he'd been working on, a rather sordid stanza about the town mayor and his fondness for the herds of sheep he kept with pride:
A sheep's a fine thing,
you know what they say;
Warm wool, fresh milk,
and a lamb chop one day.
We take all these gifts,
but they're not enough;
for Lord Mayor Kilean
when he's in a rut!
Ok, so it could use some polish. The idea's gold though! People around here hated the man, so they wouldn't need much in the way of wit to start the tips flowing. Or the drinks. Through the magic of Byron over at the Lustre Pearl, though, one pretty much meant the other.
His hand brushed against the strap of the bow case, and his thoughts ventured back. Not as far back as the red-tinged suggestions that were the only thing he could dredge up about that fire, but not the clear, restless memories of taverns, roads and rivers traveled. He remembered the caravan that had taken him in, a young boy of the constant traveling. Days hiking over trails between Issia and Rostland. That didn't happen much these days. Trouble brewing and all that madness on the borders.
The bow was the last thing he had to remind him of those days. He'd learned to shoot the bows the human boys used, and gotten to be a damn good shot, Beron thought with pride. Not much cause to use in in a city, though, but it did lend him a mysterious air. That was good for tips, too. Take the tales folk grow up with, bend and shape and mold just a tad, act out some of the more thrilling escapades, sing a ballad of heroes long gone and legendary loves lost. Folks loved that stuff.
What tale will I spin this eve? Lustia? No, too foreign. Sharon and the Seven Halflings? Maybe, people love to mock my folk. No. I'll not be the butt of that particular joke. I need something, something….stirring. The Breaking of the Blue Sun? No, too maudlin. Tleoh the Tongue-Twisted is too quick for these simple folk, though it'd be great in New Stetven….
Ah! Gavin the Gutless and the Great Hunt. Classic, and it stars an everyman. It's comfortable. Gods I need to get out of here.
Gathering his memory and his wits, Beron Dook mingled towards the Pearl and slipped inside. Within minutes he was seated in a chair near the mantle with an ale in hand.Though his voice was low, those nearby paid close attention to the tale, and as stillness spread to neighbors the whole tavern listened with rapt attention as the halfling grew in stature. Before long, it wasn't Beron the Halfman who stood before them, it was an avatar of Gavin Himself, a farmhand who went from being left for dead, a sword through his stomach after a farm raid, to single-handedly finding and slaying every member of the bandit gang that did it.
When he finished, a flourish of a broomstick splitting the bandit king from his head, the crowd burst into applause. Beron made his way through the crowd, accepting handshakes, tips, backslaps and smiles as he angled for the bar.
It's surprisingly tough for a man of my size to climb a stool. Bemusement flashed on his face, which then split into a wide smile as Byron slammed another mug in front of him. As Beron took it and turned around to the people returning to private conversations, his eyes caught a yellowed piece of parchment tacked next to the door. From this distance all he could see was the word REWARD in large letters.
Reward. I like this notice already…what's gone wrong now? Expedition….mhmm…south…mhmm…opportunity…forge new land…vast wealth and accolades…new land…new…land.
Wait, a new kingdom? That can't be right. Well, the crown could use some space at the moment. Those bandits are not going to be simple to clear out, are they? I'll need crew members, preferably ones I can trust. Supplies, gear. Good thing they're kitting us out.
A slow, eager smile began to grow on his young face as Beron spun back to the bar. As he slammed back the last of his pint, he was working out what kinds of people he'd need to make his new venture succeed. Noting Byron's puzzled look, Beron's grin widened even more.
"Farewell, noble barkeep! I'm off to build a nation!"
And with that, the giddy, possibly drunk Halfling strode out of the Pearl, perhaps for the last time.
"Now what should I name my new land? Dooky? Too juvenile. Beronia? Too feminine. Graf! No, too brutish…"
His conversation trailed in his wake as Beron sauntered down the road. No dark butt lingered in his mind; instead for once his future had a glimmer of possibility.

George Lucas getting married
Marriage may have been a little taboo in his films (poor Anakin and Padme), but Star Wars creator, director and head honcho George Lucas is showing no real-life reticence to the idea after his engagement to long-time romantic partner Mellody Hobson.
Linked together since 2006, according to the Hollywood Reporter, Lucas and Hobson reportedly got engaged sometime during the holiday season. There are no details regarding the nature of the proposal, nor when or where the wedding may take place. The chances of Jedi lining the aisle with lightsabers upraised is high. (No jokes about stormtroopers and the Imperial March, please.)
Hardly a small name herself, Hobson is the president of Ariel Investments, LLC and the chairman of DreamWorks Animation. She also makes regular appearances on television offering financial advice. The pair met at a business conference - possibly the only place a filmmaker and a financial businesswoman could meet, says Lucas.
The announcement comes on the coattails of Disney's multi-billion-dollar purchase of Lucasfilm, a massive amalgamation that also saw the announcement of new Star Wars films in the future. Lucas will reportedly put most of the money earned from the purchase into charitable causes. Good on you, George.

I would recommend new owners of the HTC HD2 run their device as stock for at least a few weeks, to get a feel of how it works before buggy new cooked ROMs have been installed, but if you are an inpatient soul and consider the BlockBuster streaming movie app as crapware you will be pleased to know that a Hard-SPL for the T-Mobile version of the HTC HD2 is now available.
Cotulla and bepe have released a HSPL2 is designed specifically for the T-Mobile USA HD2 (with 1024 MB of ROM).

Melissa McCarthy To Star In Drama About First Female Boston Cops
Melissa McCarthy's got another cop movie on the way, and it promises to be more serious than The Heat. New Line Cinema has purchased an untitled cop drama from Alexandra Lydon, based on her book proposal. What could be such a good idea that studios engaged in a bidding war to pick up the rights so early? It deals with the first women to join the Boston police department in the 1970s.
McCarthy is being set to play one of the women, in what is expected to be an ensemble cast. McCarthy and her husband Ben Falcone will also produce the film, which follows the black and white female cops who broke the gender barrier of the Boston PD's old boys' club at a time of deep racial division in the city.
I can see this one being pushed in a similar fashion as Hidden Figures, and depending on the cast and director it could gain just as much attention. [Deadline]

A sleepy exterior belies a turbulent civil rights history.
|Siloam Baptist Church, by Carol L. Douglas.
The city of Marion's population is about the same as that of Rockport, ME, but it is able to spread out on a neat grid of streets. There are some terrific, large, old houses here, and like everything else, they have elbow room. The pastor's home is a massive old place; so is the church itself. Built in the boom times, it could seat five hundred worshippers.
|The chair of the art department at Judson College told me a little about this area's civil rights history, and gave me this book.
This is the center of Alabama's Black Belt. This originally referred to the region's rich, black topsoil. With the development of 19th century cotton plantations, the term started to refer to African-American slaves as well. After the Civil War, freedmen stayed as sharecroppers and tenant farmers. Perry County, of which Marion is the seat, is almost 70% black.
Jimmie Lee Jackson was a young civil rights activist and deacon at St. James Baptist Church here in Marion. On February 18, 1965, he was beaten and shot by troopers while protesting. Eight days later, he died in hospital in nearby Selma. This was the catalyst for the first Selma to Montgomery March on March 7, 1965.
|Jimmie Lee Jackson's home church in Marion, AL.
It's hard to resolve this sleepy, pretty town with such a violent and important history. In fact, I didn't know anything about it until I met Joshua Pickens, head of the art department at Judson College. This small, jewel-like school was founded by members of Siloam Baptist Church in 1838, making it the fifth-oldest women's college in the United States.
|My maritime buddies might appreciate the sentiment.
I was there to talk to his students. After, they showed me a formal room in the front of Mead Hall. This is a combination parlor and dining room. It dates from the days when etiquette was an important part of a woman's education. Even the beautiful old china is still there.
|Siloam is a mother church of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Siloam Baptist Church itself has a strict, austere Greek Revival symmetry. Had I the time to do a second sketch, it would be of the doors behind those squat Doric columns. Seldom used now, they led to the sanctuary and to the gallery, where slaves (and later, cadets from Marion Military Institute) sat.
That evening, I joined the Siloam church family at a church supper. The college-age Bible study was lightly attended because it's midterms, but there were still more than a dozen young people. They recounted Old Testament history, sang hymns and then discussed Scripture for an hour and half. It was far more rigorous than any church school class I ever taught. The Black Belt may be financially poor, but they have a rich spiritual legacy, and they're tending it.

I confess to stumbling a bit off the path of late. Mostly this was due to worldly concerns, which include but aren't limited to sparring with buggy software, nonstop work day and night, and something of a financial surprise when it came time to buy a new Apple computer for my assistant, Elena. In order to remedy my issues, though my straights were not dire, I set about reclaiming my Father in heaven.

Mitochondrial creatine superfuel. Amplifies stored cellular energy capacity and maximizes ATP generation efficiency for unmatched gains in strength, power and muscle recovery. Everyone can use more energy? At the core of this formula is Creatine Monohydrate, the most researched and studied form of Creatine available and you get 5 grams, the clinically studied dose.
Available in Unflavored and Orange Flavors
At its core CreXcel delivers 5 grams of creatine monohydrate per serving - the most studied efficacious and safest form of creatine available. For anerobic performance like weight training, it's critical to have ample creatine-phosphate (PCr) stores to quickly replenish depleted ATP which can happen within seconds. While other products typically stop there or offer up a new unproven form of creatine - this is where CreXcel is just getting warmed up.
It is just as important to have a well-oiled aerobic ATP generation system in place to quicklyremove lactic acid, and provide the bulk of cellular energy for exercise. CreXcel doesn't neglect this import piece of the puzzle and supplies important enzyme co-factors like Magnesium, Calcium and Niacin to optimize Kreb's Cycle efficiency. These minerals are bound to a unique KrebsPower™ substrate system consisting of succinate, malate, fumarate, citrate and alpha-ketoglutarate – all of which are key enzymatic substrates in the generation of ATP in the mitochondria.
Taking the science to the next level, CreXcel also includes a potent combination of a highly bioavailable water soluble CoQ10 complex with Q-Xcel™ Shilajit extract. Strenuous exercise can induce ATP declines in muscle, blood and brain tissue. Supplementing with a combination of Shilajit extract and CoQ10 can prevent natural ATP decline and doubles to increase cellular CoQ10 levels more than 100% higher than with supplementation of either ingredient alone. CoQ10 plays an essential role in the electron transport chain within the mitochondria, ensuring efficient transfer of electrons for ATP production; in fact 95% of all cellular energy production depends on it.
Not done yet though. CreXcel also includes the potent R2-Rev™ Rhodiola rosea extract. This adaptogenic herb supports human performance and endurance by activating the synthesis or re-synthesis of ATP and stimulating energy-repair processes after intense exercise.

Mya decided tonight that she wants to work on a "talk", like the other kids give on testimony Sunday. I told her that those kids are just talking about the things that they believe. So, here is what she wants to tell people:
"I believe in Jesus and Jesus believes in me. I love Jesus and he loves me too. I believe in the Holy Ghost, because he is real."
So simple, but so true...

text: I've really just had it trying to get them to stop being broody. Come get 'em. These were our only show projects and although they are not looking in top feather right now... they clean up nice! $14 each. Splash, blue and blacks available. Only three roos ($10 each - one black, two splash) available to purchase and about 10-12 or so hens. One black roo free. He was sooo lovely and really just got the poop beat out of him by his own son, so now is not a looker but throws some fine looking babies. Free. Not shipping these. Pick~ up only. Will meet you part way for gas money within reason. Take the whole crowd and I'll try and make you a good deal on them, but I will say, $15 a bird is already pretty cheap compared to what I paid. Out of the last eggs I put in, I hatched out about 8 chicks (really BAD fertility because of these guys' feathers!). The chicks are for sale as well. Blacks, blues and splashes, possible mottleds as the black hens throw mottled sometimes. $3 each per chick. Stacy

Your face is your interface with the world. You want to send to the world the best about yourself. people form opinion about you based on what is written on your face. It is of your interest to take care of the face skin and bring out its best. I am a firm believer that we all have good skin. I agree your skin may have issues here and there, now and then, but with proper care it will do alright. General health of your body reflects on the skin and so the first and most important care for your skin is a (i) balanced diet which includes all vital elements that the body needs especially vitamins and minerals. (ii) water - recommended water intake is about 2 litres per day for an adult, so keep that glass on sight; (iii) sleep - rejuvenates your whole body. (iv) hygiene - avoid clogging pores and ensure you regularly clean it (iii) pampering - being gentle and loving to your skin (iv) nourishment with good nutrients (see what is in your beauty product).
My daily face care regime entails four steps that I have found to give me great results (a young, healthy and beautiful looking skin):
1. Cleansing: The reason why you want to cleanse your skin using a good cleanser is so to remove make-up (if you use it), dirt and impurities and to keep the skin blemish free. You need to cleanse twice a day morning and evening.
(a) Morning cleansing: Remove any sweat, oily build-up, dead skin cells, and pillow grunge from the night before. It is essential to wash your face because most treatment products penetrate the best when applied to clean, bare skin.
(b) Night Cleansing: Will give you a fresh palette for makeup application the next day. Night cleansing is very important because it removes make up, sunscreen, pollution, and other grime you've accumulated from the day, so your skin can "breathe" and stay fresh while you sleep.
How do you cleanse?
3-steps process (a) apply the cleanser to your fingertips of both hands and rub together; (b) massage cleanser all over face and neck; (c) wipe off the cleanser with a cotton bud or pad and rinse the face thoroughly with warm water (avoid hot water it dries the skin). Be careful not to scrub. While Gently Cleansing is recommended even for those on Acne and Rosacea treatment. Scrubbing the skin worsen acne, as it can remove skin lipids and can increase irritation.
What kind of cleanser should you use? A non-irritating, pH balanced cleanser is best. To decrease inflammation avoid harsh cleansers, alkaline bar soaps and alcohol-based products, these may worsen irritation on your skin. Cleansing products with mild surfactants can remove surface oil and dirt without compromising the skin's barrier function. It is important to thoroughly rinse cleansers from the skin because the residue can be irritating.
My favorite cleanser:
Sonya Purifying Aloe Cleanser is a remarkable, gentle cleanser with aloe and fruit extracts is designed to gently remove makeup and debris without over drying. It leaves my face feeling wonderfully soft, fresh and clean each I use it.
Treatments targets 'certain conditions' that your skin may suffer. If you got acne, then you'll want to include a BHA or other acne treatment of some sort. If wrinkles and Fine lines, you may want to include Vitamin C products or retinoid. Treatment should be the first thing applied to clean skin in order to ensure maximum effectiveness. Even though I do not have issues that need special treatment on my face I always apply one cream AloeVera Gelly just to feed my skin with the goodness of this product and to sooth my skin. I like this product because in combination with drinking of Aloe Vera Gel, eczema that affected my leg for more than 3 years is now clear. Hairdressers use the Aloe Vera Gelly around the hair line before perming and coloring.
3. Moisturize
Why is Moisturizing your skin important? Skin need moisture and moisturizers are meant to seal in your skin's natural moisture, to adds extra hydration so your skin can function at its best, to reduce discomfort and effects of dryness or taut skin and to form additional layer of protection against everyday wear and tear.
I use the the Aloe Nourishing Serum to moisturize my skin and I just love it. It gives me a smooth and a lovely feeling that no other product I used before gave.
Skin also need protection from UVA and UVB rays from the sun. You always need to have it before you set out for that holiday or a day in the beach or park. Did you know sunscreen is also important during winter because the rays of sun are as harmful to skin in winter just like in the summer. I recommend Aloe Sunscreen spray. It is water resistant, effective and easy to carry .

Slow-Motion Tattoo Close-Up (Video)
The practice of tattooing people has existed since around 6000 B.C as a form of expression and to mark group affiliation. Whether you call them 'ink,' 'tats,' or 'skin art,' tattoos are body modifications that involve inserting ink underneath the epidermis. To understand how this is done, SmarterEveryDay created the video below captures the process in slow motion.

Landers: Nurses are awesome, say it loud and proud!
By Timothy Landers, RN, PhD
Ohio State College of Nursing
and Gennit*, 9th grader from Atlanta, Ga.
*Gennit is not her real name but the story is true. Her mom gave us permission (from the row behind us) to use this story and photo. Hopefully, this counts as her "What I did over summer vacation" essay when school starts.
I'm sitting on the plane with Gennit, a 13-year old girl who was born in Ethiopia, but now lives in Atlanta with her brother and parents. Gennit is a nice and articulate 13-year girl, and we chatted during the 13-hour flight about our experiences in Ethiopia.
She had a lot of things to say, and I noticed that she was somewhat soft-spoken making it difficult to hear her at times. I asked her about my observation that many Ethiopian girls and women speak softly and what she thought about that.
Gennit told me she thought is was more "ladylike" to speak softly and, in Ethiopia, children are taught that it is wrong for a girl to talk loudly.
She spoke in her own dialect – the American southern teenager — and said, "Like, it's like wrong for a girl to speak like that. Ok, like, it's just like, everyone has, like, their own traditions and, like, it's just how a girl is raised."
At the same time, she had some very interesting and important opinions to share. It's, like, totally cool that a 13-year-old gets this linguistics lesson.
I started thinking about what this means for nurses and for nursing. It is often difficult for us to articulate our contribution to health and health care. We are trained to be reserved and deferent. It's considered respectful, but it means that our voices are not heard. This can be especially true at the table of health care decision-making.
As we work with our colleagues from the University of Gondar, we need to encourage them to represent nurses in a way that is culturally acceptable and to advocate for nursing's contribution to patient outcomes — to speak up for what nurses mean to patient care.
This is true for us in Ohio, too. We should learn to make our voices heard.
What nurses do is, like, totally awesome!
The Sounds of Ethiopia
Tim Landers of Ohio State's College of Nursing shares this clip of what 5 a.m. sounds like in Gondar, Ethiopia, as he prepares for another day with the One Health Summer Institute.
A lesson in the art of craftsmanship
By Tim Landers, RN, PhD
Ohio State College of Nursing
I've noticed some really excellent craftsmanship in Gondar.
Craftsmanship is evident in the way a napkin is carefully folded that turns an evening meal in to a "dinner." And craftsmanship is the patience of our waitress giving me a lesson in napkin folding.
Craftsmanship is the way that the pharmacist carefully wrapped up a packet of medication she prescribed for me because of the cold I've acquired in my last days in Gondar. It says, "I hope you feel better" before you open it.
Craftsmanship is the certain way a bundle of straw is tied to the back of a donkey on the way to market or the way a cup of coffee is poured when the person actually cares. It's the expert skill and flair a microbiologist uses to streak an agar plate or a nurse uses to comfort an ailing patient.
One of the great craftsmen I have met is Mr. Abebe Demise. Abebe has a small shoe-shine bench outside our hotel. What makes him a craftsman is not that he does a good job cleaning and shining shoes; he does a great job on shoes from the dusty streets of Gondar.
What makes him a craftsman is that when Mr. Abebe is at work shining shoes, he is in the zone. His full attention is on the task at hand. He uses the tools of his trade – he uses all of his attention – to shine shoes. To watch him in action is to see a master craftsman at work.
Craftsmanship is a difficult concept to teach to students in our "Research Methods Course." There is just a way that a carefully constructed title of a scientific paper can grab your attention. A well-written set of specific aims can explain the purpose of a research project in a way that extends beyond the words printed on the page. A well-organized literature review can make reviewers beg you to do your experiments.
This skill of craftsmanship in writing grants takes years to develop — and I am no pro. But I know good grants craftsmanship when I read it—and when I see it.
On my last day in Gondar, Abebe Demise called to me from his shoe-shine bench across the street. He had a small envelope for me with "For: Tim Landers, From: Abebe" written on the outside. Inside were two picture postcards of Gondar.
I'd like to think that maybe – just maybe – this was one craftsman's way of acknowledging a fellow craftsman.
Show and Tell: Our "First Kits" in Ethiopia's Simien Mountains
By: Tim Landers, RN, PhD
Ohio State College of Nursing
This past weekend, we had a chance to take a hiking tour of the Simien mountains in Ethiopia. This has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth – the landscapes are gorgeous, the people are smiling and proud, and there is plenty of wildlife.
I have done quite a bit of hiking with my two sons and friends from Boy Scout Troop 33 in Columbus. As we were hiking across the Simien mountain pass, our guide and I chatted about our experiences hiking and guiding groups.
Melese Beza (of www.outstandingsimienmountainstours.com) grew up tending livestock as a shepherd and works as a professional tour guide through the mountains as he completes his bachelor's degree in tourism management. He speaks English quite well and we began to talk about the types of health problems he encounters as a professional hiking guide.
We took a break as it began to rain and started a "show and tell" of our first aid kits. He had a basic kit ready for the main emergencies from African trekking – including what he adoringly called "potions" such as acetaminophen, wound disinfectant, and diarrheal medications.
He used somewhat different terms, but described several conditions which would be expected – ankle "dislocations" (strains/sprains), altitude sickness, injuries from rock falls (abrasions and cuts), and blood sugar emergencies. He also described unfortunate drowning victims he recalled from last summer and that they had attempted "breath blowing" with success in one victim.
In my training back home, we've prepared for emergency evacuation of wounded hikers by helicopter transport, extricating from deep woods by foot and by vehicle, and most of our Scouts have completed training in first aid and CPR.
In this region of Ethiopia, there is no such option. There are no helicopter evacuations from the Simien Mountains. Guides call for help and it will come as soon as word can reach the village by foot and a jeep, configured as an ambulance, can make it to the wounded person.
As we discussed how injured hikers are treated and our own experiences, I was impressed with his solid grasp on these conditions. He has been working with several other guides trying to organize a more formal training in first aid and CPR for Simien Mountain guides.
Because our group is exploring the possibility of working with nurses and health extension workers to do health education, I was able to direct him to some excellent training resources developed by my friends at Columbia University School of Nursing. They have developed a fine first aid training curriculum in first aid for health extension workers.
I left him with some supplies from my kit and he reciprocated by sharing knowledge of local plants and remedies.
He left me with an appreciation for the training and preparation it takes to safely enjoy the outdoors – whether it is in Ohio or in Ethiopia.
Hand-in-hand on hygiene in a hospital setting
By Tim Landers, RN, PhD
Ohio State College of Nursing
"Are you from Ohio? Will you talk to me?"
Nura stopped me in the courtyard of the University of Gondar hospital. She was waving my business card that had been given to her from a School of Nursing instructor who knew that my work centers on infection prevention.
She had just defended her Master's thesis on hand hygiene at the University of Gondar in which she completed an audit of hand hygiene practices by nurses and other health care workers at a local hospital. When she told me about her project, I was very excited to learn more, so we met the next day to review her findings.
Improving hand hygiene saves lives. Reducing transmission of germs on the hands of health care workers is the most important means of preventing infections. A recent article of mine on patient-centered hand hygiene is here. Another important article on the subject is here.
Effective hand hygiene programs use a multimodal approach, including strong administrative support, education, training, monitoring of hand-washing and feedback. A critical element of hand hygiene programs is providing products and supplies in the health care setting, and I've worked on the best approach for years.
But I had forgotten how critical the provision of products is in our hand hygiene efforts. Without a sink, running water, soap, or alcohol-based hand rubs, hand hygiene is simply not possible.
Quite frankly, I had come to take this for granted.
Until I met Nora.
In her study, Ms. Mohammed showed that in more than half of the "hand hygiene opportunities" – times when workers should perform hand hygiene – no soap, running water, or alcohol-based hand-rubs were available at this hospital. As a former nursing matron, or director of nursing, she saw the impact this had on patient outcomes.
By demonstrating the need to improve access, her study provides an important first step in improving hand hygiene practices.
I was really excited to meet someone who shares a passion for infection prevention and hand hygiene. She really is making a difference at her hospital and helping to save lives in Gondar. In the U.S., we call them "heroes!"
Yes, I am from Ohio, and I would love to talk to you!
Making Animal Inquiries in Addis Ababa
By Tim Landers
Ohio State College of Nursing
One of the first people we met when we arrived in Addis Ababa was Daniel, our driver who took us around some of the sights.
Traffic is very bad, with pedestrians, loaded mules, stray animals and vehicles trying to share the same road.
Most of the dogs we saw were roaming the street, but as we wove through traffic, I asked Daniel if he had a dog. He was happy to show us photos of "Jack." We know that dogs are important parts of many peoples' families, and this was true for Daniel as well.
We asked more about Jack – where did he find him, when did he go to the doctor, and what type of dog he was. Expecting that he would tell us about Jack's pedigree, Daniel seemed very puzzled by the this question. "He's a small dog, a nice dog."
Daniel was concerned because Jack had some sort of infestation, and he did not know how to treat it. Unfortunately, we had two nurses in the car and no veterinarians. We did stop at a local pharmacy to see what treatments they might have.
While we were able to buy fairly high-end human antibiotics, but they did not carry veterinary medications.
During our tour of Gondar, we encountered this donkey, which in Ethiopia are seen as work animals.
I asked one of the veterinarians with our group about an ulcer on the back of this donkey. He actually pointed me to a paper he had written about these "pack ulcers" –erosions caused by loading of the animal for transport of goods to the market. They are generally non-infectious, but they look uncomfortable!
Ohio State Arrives in Gondar–Let One Health Begin!
By Tim Landers
Ohio State College of Nursing
We've arrived in Gondar!
Our traveling group from the College of Nursing arrived this morning and were greeted by officials from the University of Gondar and Baye Molla, PhD, clinical assistant professor in Ohio State's College of Veterinary Medicine.
Dr. Molla is a native of Gondar and has been a wonderful guide and adviser as we have planned our trip to Ethiopia for the One Health Summer Institute.
Over the summer, we will be joined by 20 faculty and students from Ohio State, representing the colleges of Nursing, Veterinary Medicine, Medicine, Public Health, Optometry, and Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, as well as faculty from Addis Ababa University and University of Gondar.
In addition, Robert Agunga, director of Ohio State's Center for African Studies, will join us in presenting a series of short courses using the One Health framework.
The College of Nursing's faculty contingent will begin the institute by offering a week-long course in research methods to students and faculty from the University of Gondar.

Bucky Gleason: Telesco hoping Chargers' roster he built can beat hometown Bills
Tom Telesco laughed the other day when he was asked whether the Chargers would have a meaningful advantage Sunday at StubHub Center, their 27,000-seat temporary home in Carson, Calif., when the Bills roll into town. He didn't need to be reminded many in the stands will be rooting for the visiting team.
"We know Buffalo travels well, including my family," Telesco said during a segment on – cheap plug alert! – "The Bucky & Sully Show" on CBS Sports Radio 1270 The Fan. "They're coming out to the game, but they will be wearing Charger gear or else they will not be in the stands for the game."
[Listen: The Bucky & Sully Show]
Telesco grew up in Hamburg and was raised on the Bills before making the steady climb from St. Francis High of Athol Springs to general manager of an NFL team. He's in his fifth season with the Chargers, who left San Diego and are awaiting the completion of a stadium they'll share with the Rams starting in 2020.
The Chargers are better than their 3-6 record suggests, especially when considering what they've endured. They relocated to a soccer stadium, hired a new head coach in former Bills assistant Anthony Lynn and lost their first four games. They won their next three and dropped their last two. Four of their losses have come by a field goal or less.
Last week, the Chargers had a 17-14 lead over Jacksonville before Philip Rivers threw an interception that led to the tying field goal with three seconds left in the fourth quarter en route to a 20-17 loss in overtime. If a few more plays this season had gone their direction, they could be 6-3 or better.
"I wish it worked like that, but it doesn't," Telesco said. "… Really, from here on out, every week is the biggest game of the year. That's what happens when you start 0-4 like we did. This is a big game for us against Buffalo. We know Buffalo is a good football team."
Telesco would know. He has watched them closely since he could tie his shoes. He graduated from St. Francis in 1991 after playing under Jerry Smith and John Scibetta and was a Bills intern for part of their glory days. He also was one of the branches that sprouted from Bill Polian's tree of coaches and administrators.
Others include Jaguars GM Dave Caldwell, former NFL assistant coach and current Alabama offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and Polian's sons, Chris and Brian. Chris Polian, director of player personnel in Jacksonville under Caldwell, is expected to become a GM sooner than later. Brian is special teams coach at Notre Dame.
Bill Polian was a terrific mentor and major influence who opened doors, of course, but all five earned their keep and proved they belonged at the highest levels of a competitive, unsentimental industry. Polian wouldn't have hired Telesco as a scouting assistant with the Panthers in 1995 and invested 17 years in his protege if he didn't believe Telesco had the chops to become a successful executive.
"In less than a year, it was very obvious that his intelligence, his temperament and his passion for the game was going to be extraordinary," Polian said Tuesday. "That's when we decided that Tom would be a guy we would fast-track to becoming a general manager. He's low-key and very analytical, but he's also on top of every single detail."
Vic Carucci's Bills analysis: Keeping Taylor in the pocket is setting him up for failure
Telesco played wide receiver for John Carroll University, where he was joined by Caldwell and Chris Polian. Other teammates included former Bills offensive coordinator Greg Roman, former Bills linebacker London Fletcher, Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and Pats director of player personnel Nick Caserio.
For that much success to come from a small private high school and a Division III program in Ohio, which also produced Don Shula, is remarkable.
"Sometimes, you get lucky with geography, with the fact that I grew up in Buffalo and relatively close to Rich Stadium, at the time," Telesco said. "I obviously loved sports growing up. I could have grown up in Omaha, Neb., and not had any thoughts of working in the NFL.
"My football knowledge was second to none when I got to college because of what I learned at St. Francis. Now, my talent level was not second to none, but I always felt my knowledge was second to none when I got to college. I was able to take that forward."
Many times over the years, Telesco has counted the steps, knowing one rung led to another while he climbed the ladder. Polian gave him a taste of the NFL, and Telesco took advantage of the opportunity. He learned every facet of the front office from one of the best in the business.
He followed Polian to Indianapolis, became the Colts' director of player personnel and helped build a Super Bowl winner. San Diego hired him as general manager in 2013, one day before Jacksonville hired Caldwell as its GM.
"He pays very close attention to even the most minute details and is very passionate," Polian said. "When you have that combination, it's almost a can't-miss."
Last month, Telesco was in town visiting family and caught the first half of the epic battle between UB and Western Michigan before flying to New York for the Chargers-Giants game. He watched on his smartphone while Western Michigan won, 71-68, in seven overtimes.
Last weekend, he reunited with Caldwell while their teams met in Jacksonville. This weekend, he'll see familiar faces in the crowd when his hometown team visits his new home in a big matchup for both teams. Thirty years ago, who would have guessed he would take a road less traveled for a chance to beat his boyhood team?
Not him.
"Without being in Buffalo, none of it ever happens," he said. "It's a journey. It really is. Most of it, or almost all of it, has to do with Bill Polian and Chris Polian. I learned so much from them when I was with the Carolina Panthers and the Indianapolis Colts. I felt like my base of football knowledge was good, but they taught me the NFL and roster building and how to lead a team and everything – transactions, trades, all that stuff. That's what I learned from them.
"Not that this is the most stable job in the world, working in the NFL, but it's so fun that you get to come in every day and compete every week. I've been on a team somewhere since I was 8 or 9 years old playing (Hamburg Little Cagers basketball) at Cloverbank (Elementary). I've been on a team somewhere, at some point, that long. There's nothing better than being a part of that."

It may have taken me a year, but I've finally figured out that I was wrong the whole time, and using git to handle deployments isn't impossible, it's just different, and it can totally be scripted.

WordPress False Security
There are certain things I just don't do to make my site more secure, because I don't think they matter. There are others that I do, because I think they do matter. I guess the time to post about this is now!
WordPress Login Protection With .htaccess
No ModSecurity? No problem (unless you're on nginx)! You can still do things to help protect yourself from the insanity of people hammering your server trying to log in to WordPress.
WordPress Login Protection with ModSecurity
If you have ModSecurity and root access, you can cold-stop people trying to brute force into WordPress on your server.
Customizing Author's Comments on Genesis
I needed to customize my comments on a socialish site, so people always knew who was in charge. With Genesis Framework it's pretty painless, even if you have no idea what you just wrote.
Your Photos, Your Way

Kim Kardashian Joins Snapchat - See Her First Post!
Kim Kardashian is officially on Snapchat after months of speculation as to whether she actually has an account or not.
The 35-year-old reality star announced the news late Tuesday night (March 8), though it appears she did not make her account public immediately.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Kim Kardashian
"Snapchat alert! I'm finally on! Add me -KimKardashian �'," Kim tweeted.
Kim tweeted a screencap of her first post, which includes her sister Kourtney Kardashian, though the video can't be viewed yet as her account is still set to private.
The news comes hours after Kim wrote an essay about empowerment after her NSFW selfie was defended by many celebs.
In the past, Kim has posted selfies using Snapchat filters, leading people to believe she has had a secret account.

I have an office in NE Portland, Oregon, USA but I have clients all over the world. If you are not able to meet with me in the office please schedule an online session (these are video chats).
In-person sessions take place in my office in Northeast Portland, Oregon.
Online sessions are more affordable and follow a much more flexible schedule.
Read more about my online sessions here.
In our initial 90-minute session we'll talk through your relationship history and current concerns. Before we part ways I'll give you a full review of yoru relationship's health and an assessment of your strengths together. You'll leave with initial reflection questions and tools to start your work the very first time we connect.
"In our very first session Gina saw something in us I hadn't realized in seven years together.
That shifted everything."

If you want to rethink relationships in your life, try out solo-polyamory, or change old relationship patterns for good I'm here to help!
I generally work with couples in three arenas:
- Repair work- there may have been some trust damage, some distance created, or some major betrayal. Let me help you with repair work to rebuild you from the foundation up.
- Opening Relationships- About 50% of my clients come from historically monogamous (or monogamish) relationships and want to create a sustainable framework for non-monogamy. I love this work!
- Maintenance work- I use a strengths-based approach and view couples work as proactive. These pairs come in less frequently for general relationship maintenance like a tune-up!
It can be hard to find professionals who really understand the unique needs of three-person relationships. I'm here for you! Send me an email to being our work.
"We looked for someone who could help our triad for months before we found Gina. She gets us."
- Gary, Lee, & Ben, Portland, OR
If there are more than three people in your relationship group, chain, or polycule, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and we can discuss your specifics.
I reserve a small number of spaces for low-income clients at a reduced rate. Call me for a consultation to discuss payment if you need.
- Bring a decade of experience helping folks build and rebuild trust to your service

- Use a strengths-based approach to help you grow in a positive direction

- Understand the unique dynamics and issues that arise for LGBTQ couples (based both in lived and professional experience)
- Understand the unique dynamics and issues that arise for long-term non-monogamous couples and triads
- Sit and nod - instead, we'll take action (I've been described as "direct and not-coddling")
- Add shame or judgment to your experience (there's already too much of that in the world)
- Assume your experience is the same as mine or anyone else's
- Believe either monogamy or non-monogamy is healthier, natural or inherently better than the other
- Pathologize you (I don't treat mental illness, so you won't receive a diagnosis, assessment or treatment for mental health conditions or substance use)
- Support couples who are actively violent with one another- your safety needs to come first, then our work together can begin
