I have sensitive skin and eyes and I've had problems with peppermint oil before. If your daughter is indeed not being melodramatic - and the fact that she does it consistently and claims that it hurts and, as you say, is one tough little cookie - it's possible that even the tiniest bit could be hurting her eyes. Natural doesn't necessarily always mean non-allergenic. She could just have very sensitive eyes.
Could you perhaps try something else? As an experiment, perhaps spray her with water instead but don't tell her it's different. If she carries on about that too, it might be more reassuring to know that she's not actually in pain and is just being a bit dramatic about it.

Are you a State Farm Employee affected by closures & relocations?
Posted in the Bloomington Forum
1 - 20 of 39 Comments Last updated Jan 6, 2017
#1 Aug 17, 2013
State Farm Employees are reporting closures & relocations. Corporate PR GOONS claim that severance packages are offered, but some State Farm long term employees say that recently, and for the first time ever, they have received bad reviews, and are therefore ineligible for severance pay. Please weigh in here if this has affected you or someone you know. Corporate PR GOONS & "astroturfers" NOT INVITED. This is for the employees.
#2 Oct 4, 2013
SF is starting to write employees up for the most outlandish reasons and firing them as well.
They laid someone off two weeks ago because they didn't adhere to task time?? No one adheres to task time, damn near impossible, but that was the reason they let let them go. Now mind you this employee had been with SF for over 10 years and just suddenly they decided that this person needed to go..REALLY
A month ago they let someone go because of their performance, now mind you they never gave this person any specifics about their performance and had made this person sign a very vague write-up that if they didn't improve their performance they would be let-go...well guess what one day they let them go.
They give you paid sick time which you may think is great BUT if you use too many sick days, and no one has any idea what too many sicks days are, they will write you up. Kid you not..and too many sick days is up to the manager you have....they will also deny you a promotion if you have too many sick days, which again there is NO definition as to what is too many..you can have an outstanding EPR and yet be turned down for a promotion because you GOT SICK...your performance means squat...
Oh and the dress code does not apply equally to all, a female was written up because her neckline was too low..yep she was and it wasn't..and yet males can wear flips flops, which are so against the dress code and no one says a word...
#4 Oct 10, 2013
This has actually been going on for several years. There is no doubt that SF executives are corrupt. They probably own this website or have administrative rights. Don't be surprised if you see deleted threads!!
#5 Oct 18, 2013
Ed Rust, Sr. would roll over in his grave if he knew what his son has done with this company!!!! Just search State Farm lawsuits, and you can clearly see what is going on. SF has made record profits...well if you outsource work and fire employees that is what has happened.
#6 Oct 30, 2013
Huge Huge announcement will be made today at all State Farm Offices. They will be announcing the restructure, which has been going on for the past 3 years at least and many offices will be finding out if they will still have a presence in the restructure. Yesterday we all left wondering how much longer we will be employed, I guess today we will find out.
United States
#7 Oct 30, 2013
. Please update.
#8 Nov 5, 2013
well it has been going on at least 3 years, maybe longer. They have kept this a great secret. The City of Bloomington has had a meeting about the impact SF will have on the community.
When it finally happens, just search State of Illinois for layoffs, and you will see the actual numbers. Guarantee it won't be in the local news.
#9 Nov 26, 2013
I know that surest way to be promoted at SF is to be related to someone else in SF, Nepotism at SF is well known, nothing new, they just promoted 16 people to Claim Rep positions at the Frederick Operations center and so many of the people promoted have relatives that already work for SF, you can be a total fuck-up and still get promoted at SF if you have a relative that works there. The interesting thing is that they would rather promote someone with degree from a Hyles-Anderson college than promote someone that has 16 years of experience with SF. Now Google Hyles-Anderson College and check out the Wikipedia page about the college, it is not even a accredited college but SF values a degree from a college like that, than 16 years of actual SF experience. Can you fucking believe that?
Since: Nov 13
#10 Nov 26, 2013
HylesAnderson College is not accredited by any recognized accreditation body. The U.S. Armed Services and public schools do not recognize unaccredited degrees, while many states make it illegal to use an unaccredited degree. In a sermon by Hyles, he claims to not want accreditation.
All faculty, staff, and students are required to go "soul winning" weekly, by participating in the evangelistic ministry of the First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana. The 2008 college catalog claimed that 10,000 new baptisms are performed each year at the Church.
There are separate requirements for male and female students for the same degree. For example, the Bachelor of Science Degree program has a "Curriculum for Ladies" that requires classes including "Home Decorating," "Clothing Design" and "Understanding Your Husband."
HAC's catalog lists policies that "maybe you wouldn't like," including prohibiting male long hair, the use of alcohol, cigarettes, dance, Hollywood movies, playing cards, having "fellowship with liberals," or participating in "other questionable amusements" as well as requiring "young ladies" to be chaperoned if they go off-campus.
Yes a degree from a college like this is valued more than 16 years of actual SF experience. We always said you could have a degree in underwater basket weaving and now you do not even need an actual accredited degree. Now mind you this person I am speaking about is a blonde Sarah Palin, nothing up there but air, the lights are on but nobody is home.
#11 Jan 6, 2014
I was laid off from WHOC in Feb 2011 when SF stopped writing Flood. March would have been my 6th anniversary. I was fortunate that I got a severance package then, though I think it's more because our department head wasn't out to screw us. My sister still works there and she says it has gotten ridiculous. Can't go back (thank GOD!) because my TM put me down as ineligible to return. My TM was a piece of work (they seem to like those at SF) and my sister's TM was a former acting TM of mine when I was in her department. She's worse.
I liked my job, I never had problems dealing with Corporate. My main issue was the people - grade school on steroids. If you were an adult, didn't participate in the silliness, or had any health issues, you were in for hell. I was glad to leave - the only thing is, that place ruined my mental and physical health so I'm just a husk for any other workplace.
#12 Mar 4, 2014
Now I know how SF is going to purge employees without it making the papers as a massive lay-off. They are going to make the employees reapply for their jobs, yes you heard me correct. If you are in one of the offices that are staying open, they are restructuring the offices into Demand Pool locations, they are restructuring the jobs, and you have to reapply for your job. The Charlotte VA office was the first office that was "restructured" employees there found out last week if they got the job they applied for, now they were able to apply for many positions, but the offices they could apply for jobs at were limited, in that office and of course they could apply for a job in one of hubs as well.
Even team managers have to reapply for their jobs, which I kinda like, because there are some TM's that have no business being TM's.
If you don't get a job you applied for then you will either be let go immediately or they will phase your position out.
When they decide who they want to hire for the new positions they will only look at you on paper, they will not pull your stats, if you don't look good on paper then, well, you will probably not get the job.
State Farm did some restructuring about ten years ago, but this is different this time. I will update with more info when I know more.
#13 Mar 6, 2014
An 8 year employee of SF. Honestly worked . Suddenly getting bad review. I had very good skillset. They put us in so called migration projects. Used us all , giving bad review so that it is easy to fire. Another immigrants house wife with fake degree certificate ready work half the salary. Have become managers favourate, this has become common problem.
There no honesty . It only nepotism
#14 May 24, 2014
In California, newer employees with no claims experienced were given offers and 2 weeks pass the live date, they still can't pass the exam to start handling claims.
Employees who brag that all they need is 2 or less years before the retire were given offers...and those who WERE planning to stay fir 10+ years are basically being told to scram.
A lot have already applied to diff companies and are being offered more money.
Others with 15 years+ with the company have obtained attorneys...
#15 May 27, 2014
I was a contractor and 3,000 of us were laid off last december. This happened two weeks after I had a meeting with my vendor rep and my onsite coordinator where I signed another 1-year contract just as I had the previous year. We weren't real employees so it didn't have to be reported to the govt or be announced or anything. There were so many IT workers looking for a job in the area the past few months that I had to settle for a commute to Urbana. I hear the parking situation has improved which is nice I guess.
SF's entire IT department is contractors with the exception of critical infrastructure and management.
CAPTCHA was "1984"
#16 Jun 11, 2014
I've been with the company for about 6 years. In claims. At my location, a lot of the good TMs have been restructured, retired, let go. I just got a "shield memo" for a bunch of trivial nonsense. If I get let go, I've already talked with attorney and would file suit.
#17 Jun 13, 2014
Just got email of a big announcement on Tuesday. Does anyone have any details?
#18 Jun 19, 2014
They are going to try any nd everything to ride people now! I left in April to get my severance package or if I stayed the would have taken the package and been in pain in my ass or the next date of when we are to leave,,, still not date! only in America! People State Farm--Need a Union!
#19 Jun 26, 2014
SF has been very unfair to those who has worked for the company 20 plus years.. if you are 55 or over you will not see a promotion no matter what you do. Yes, nepotism exists here in fact it thrives. What happened to this company? You are watching a slow death of a company who is shooting themselves in the foot by their unfair practices. Why? because they are behind the times with the IT department, they are desparately trying to catch up with the other guys. they are hiring outsiders who does not have SF interests at heart. SF has a great systems department plus college kids all around. USE Them... oh and women fairness does not exist with the regular worker bee crowd. just saying:)
#20 Jun 27, 2014

The Top 25 South Park Characters
February 28, 2014 - Christmas poo, deranged teachers, Satan himself and a kid whose evil outdoes Satan - we look at the best characters South Park has to offer.
South Park Celebrates the Holidays
December 20, 2010 - It's the holidays, so it's only natural that we here at IGN TV are thinking about television episodes that tackle the holiday theme. With South Park however, it just so happens that several of their holiday episodes are some of the show's best ever. Whether it's with Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo, a glaive-tossing Jesus, or Charles Manson -- South Park knows how to celebrate the holiday season.
South Park Preview: "Crippled Summer"
April 26, 2010 - For all the controversy created by last week's South Park episode, you'd think it were the season finale. You'd be wrong, however. It's this week that the spring finale airs, with more episodes slated for later in the year. Matt and Trey will have plenty of opportunities to offend people in a few months.
South Park on Religion
February 25, 2010 - South Park has taken aim at virtually everything and everyone over its long history. They have skewered every race, gender, political affiliation, and yes – religion. Here's ten of our favorite episodes of South Park that deal with the great beyond. The list is not comprehensive (are they ever?), but each is a strong entry in the South Park canon, and in some way deals with faith and religion.
South Park: 10 Great Moments in Diversity
December 11, 2008 - South Park made a name for itself instantaneously for its outrageous humor. In this case 'outrageous' doesn't mean the manic energy of prop comic Carrot Top, but rather the willingness of Matt Stone and Trey Parker to send people into an "outrage." It all began with the short that got the show its start – "Jesus vs. Santa." And like all of South Park's material that seems simply offensive, there was actually a thoughtful message about the real meaning of Christmas behind the violent fight between Jesus and Santa Claus.

A popular teenage pregnancy prevention program that simulates the care of an infant did not reduce the number of unintended pregnancies, according to the first randomized controlled trial published in The Lancet to measure the impact of the worldwide intervention on pregnancy rates. The study found that teenaged girls who participated in the program instead had higher rates of pregnancy and abortion compared with the control group.

Sprint to the finish line?
An occasional sprint does more than just get you there faster...
Did you ever think that you could gain all the benefits of working out long each day by just working out harder for less? This concept was behind the development of the 4-minute exercise gyms that sprouted up around the country in the past decade.
Now a new study confirms that the inventors of the short, intense workout machines may be on to a good thing, and here's why:
According to the latest research published in February 2009, doing 7.5 minutes of intense exercise each week is just as good as 30 minutes of moderate physical activity done every day when it comes to reducing your risk of developing type 2 diabetes (or insulin resistance if you have type 1), and maybe even more so.
Researchers located in the United Kingdom reported that that young, sedentary men who did 15 minutes of all-out sprinting on an exercise bike (broken down into 4 to 6 30-second sprints with four minutes of rest between) over two weeks substantially improved their ability to metabolize blood sugar after drinking 75 grams of glucose (that is, during an oral glucose tolerance test that is used to diagnose insulin resistance or diabetes).
From an exercise physiology point of view, I understand fully that the reason that intense exercise may be helpful is that it causes you to recruit more muscle fibers than moderate exercise and consequently use up more stored carbs (glycogen) in less time. It also helps you retain the muscle fibers you would lose over time if you don't recruit them--which is mostly the ones that you only recruit while sprinting or doing intense weight training. You likely won't get as fit doing this compared with endurance activities, but it's an interesting idea nonetheless.
Why any type of faster intervals may work just as well
For decades, the standby exercise prescription has been 30 minutes of moderate exercise (like brisk walking) most days of the week. This is problematic for two reasons: 1) most individuals are not making the time to meet this recommendation as it is; and 2) doing moderate exercise does not recruit the muscle fibers that you're most likely to lose as you age (the fastest twitch fibers). So, if all you ever do is moderate walking, you'll end up with substantially less muscle mass over time.
A viable alternative is to add any length of faster intervals into your moderate walking sessions. This includes walking even just 10 percent faster between two light poles every couple of blocks or doing a hill profile on a treadmill. By doing so, you'll recruit more of those faster fibers (and if you use them, you don't lose them), use up more stored carbs, and get physically fitter--even if you exercise for less than the recommended 30 minutes. Adding in intervals is easier to do than sprinting--and likely a lot safer for older and unfit individuals--and can be just as effective in the long run.
A word to the wise: Start out slowly if you haven't been doing anything intense and work up to that higher level slowly. And after reading all this, you still don't think you have time for less than 8 minutes of vigorous exercise a week, we need to talk...

The accumulation of mutations is a contributing factor in the initiation of premalignant mammary lesions and their progression to malignancy and metastasis. We have used a mouse model in which the carcinogen is the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) which induces clonal premalignant mammary lesions and malignant mammary tumors by insertional mutagenesis. Identification of the genes and signaling pathways affected in MMTV-induced mouse mammary lesions provides a rationale for determining whether genetic alteration of the human orthologues of these genes/pathways may contribute to human breast carcinogenesis. A high- throughput platform for inverse PCR to identify MMTV-host junction fragments and their nucleotide sequences in a large panel of MMTV-induced lesions was developed. Validation of the genes affected by MMTV-insertion was carried out by microarray analysis. Common integration site (CIS) means that the gene was altered by an MMTV proviral insertion in at least two independent lesions arising in different hosts. Three of the new genes identified as CIS for MMTV were assayed for their capability to confer on HC11 mouse mammary epithelial cells the ability for invasion, anchorage independent growth and tumor development in nude mice. Analysis of MMTV induced mammary premalignant hyperplastic outgrowth (HOG) lines and mammary tumors led to the identification of CIS restricted to 35 loci. Within these loci members of the Wnt, Fgf and Rspo gene families plus two linked genes (Npm3 and Ddn) were frequently activated in tumors induced by MMTV. A second group of 15 CIS occur at a low frequency (2-5 observations) in mammary HOGs or tumors. In this latter group the expression of either Phf19 or Sdc2 was shown to increase HC11 cells invasion capability. Foxl1 expression conferred on HC11 cells the capability for anchorage- independent colony formation in soft agar and tumor development in nude mice. The published transcriptome and nucleotide sequence analysis of gene expression in primary human breast tumors was interrogated. Twenty of the human orthologues of MMTV CIS associated genes are deregulated and/or mutated in human breast tumors. We are currently testing the hypothesis that non-cellular extracts from normal mammary tissue can reprogram non-mammary and cancer cell in the epithelium-divested mammary fat pad. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. At present, the etiology of breast cancer is unknown;however the possibility of a distinct cell of origin, i.e. a cancer stem cell, is a heavily investigated area of research. Influencing signals from the tissue niche are known to affect stem cells. Literature has shown that cancer cells lose their tumorigenic potential and display 'normal'behavior when placed into 'normal'ontogenic environments. Therefore, it may be the case that the tissue microenvironment is able to generate signals to redirect cancer cell fate. Previously, we showed that pluripotent human embryonal carcinoma cells could be redirected by the regenerating mammary gland microenvironment to contribute epithelial progeny for 'normal'gland development in-vivo. We showed that that human metastatic, non-metastatic, and metastasis-suppressed breast cancer cells proliferate and contribute to normal mammary gland development in-vivo without tumor formation. Immunochemistry for human-specific mitochondria, keratin 8 and 14, as well as human-specific milk proteins (alpha-lactalbumin, impregnated transplant hosts) confirmed the presence of human cell progeny. Features consistent with normal mammary gland development as seen in intact hosts (duct, lumen formation, development of secretory acini) were recapitulated in both primary and secondary outgrowths from chimeric implants. These results suggest the dominance of the tissue microenvironment over cancer cell fate. This work demonstrates that cultured human breast cancer cells (metastatic and non-metastatic) respond developmentally to signals generated by the mouse mammary gland microenvironment during gland regeneration in-vivo. Experiments were conducted to redirect mouse Embryonic Stem (ES) cells from a tumorigenic phenotype to a normal mammary epithelial phenotype in vivo. Mixing LacZ-labeled ES cells with normal mouse mammary epithelial cells at ratios of 1:5 and 1:50 in phosphate buffered saline and immediately inoculating them into epithelium-divested mammary fat pads of immune-compromised mice accomplished this. Our results indicate that tumorigenesis occurs only when normal mammary ductal growth is not achieved in the inoculated fat pads. When normal mammary gland growth occurs, we find ES cells (LacZ+) progeny interspersed with normal mammary cell progeny in the mammary epithelial structures. We demonstrate that these progeny, marked by LacZ expression, differentiate into multiple epithelial subtypes including steroid receptor positive luminal cells and myoepithelial cells indicating that the ES cells are capable of epithelial multipotency in this context but do not form teratomas. In addition, in secondary transplants, ES cell progeny proliferate, contribute apparently normal mammary progeny, maintain their multipotency and do not produce teratomas. The mouse mammary epithelial cell hierarchy contains both multipotent stem cell as well as lineage limited duct and lobular progenitor cell functions. The latter-also termed parity-identified mammary epithelial cells (PI-MEC)-are marked by beta-galactosidase (beta-Gal) expression following pregnancy and involution in WAP-Cre/Rosa26-flox-stop-flox-lacZ (WC/R26) mice and are the targets of tumorigenic transformation in MMTV-erbB2 transgenic mice. Here we demonstrate that an epithelial population distinct from PI-MEC is transformed during WAP-Int3 tumorigenesis. As expected, WAP-Int3/WC/R26 triple-transgenic mice failed to undergo secretory alveolar development, failed to lactate and developed mammary tumors. Following pregnancy and involution, Beta-gal+ mammary epithelial cells were found in the normal mammary tissue, but the resulting mammary tumors were all beta-gal-. WAP-Int3/WC/R26 mammary glands contained ample ERa+ mammary epithelial cells (MEC), but only rare (1%) PR+ and RANKL+ cells. In addition, dissociated MEC from WAP-Int3/WC/R26 glands failed to regenerate a mammary tree upon transplantation into a cleared fat-pad of a nu/nu recipient mouse. However, when mixed with normal MEC, PI-MEC from WAP-Int3/WC/R26 mice contributed progeny to the resulting functional outgrowth. The WAP-Int3/WC/R26 derived PI-MEC displayed all of the properties of fully functional lobular progenitors including giving rise to ERa+, PR+, SMA+, and RANKL+ epithelial progeny. These results demonstrate that WAP-Int3 has no oncogenic effect upon PI-MEC and that the expansion of functional lobular progenitors is required for secretory alveolar development and lactation. Furthermore, lobular progenitor function is ultimately controlled by signals within its microenvironment.

text: News Deal brings touch of Tinseltown to southwestern CT The U.S. Army has announced its former engine plant near Sikorsky Airport will be turned into a state-of-the-art movie production facility.Hollywood East/Area 51, a New Like Tweet Share Pin Email 0 Comments April 15, 2008 9:31 AM STRATFORD - The U.S. Army has announced its former engine plant near Sikorsky Airport will be turned into a state-of-the-art movie production facility. Hollywood East/Area 51, a New Haven film production company, placed the winning $9.6 million bid for the property. The film company says it will likely have to spend millions more to decontaminate the site. According to reports, the production company plans to build 30 soundstages, which will create thousands of jobs. That?s what state leaders envisioned when they passed tax credits for the film industry in 2006. ?This is the sort of thing we?ve been working on,? says General Assembly Speaker Jim Amman (D-Milford). ?Not just the glitz and glamour?but actually to have a place with an infrastructure there?and [be] competitive. Being [one of the] top 10 moviemakers in the nation right now - who would have thought little Connecticut could do that?? Stratford Mayor James R. Miron says he's cautiously optimistic about the project, but notes that the next 18 months are critical. Hollywood East/Area 51 must finalize its plans, which then need to be approved by the Department of Environmental Protection and Gov. Jodi Rell.

Quantum Drive
From Star Citizen
The quantum drive is a critical component for ships that allows travel within a star system. Currently, ships "in quantum" will travel at approximately 0.2c, or 20% of the speed of light [1] . The actual travel speed and universe scale is still subject to change.
On May 3rd 2075, the first Quantum Drive Engine was completed by Dr. Scott Childress along with a team from RSI. It was capable of space travel at 1/100th of the speed of light. Overnight, the space travel industry was born and spaceflight for civilians became possible[2].
In 2214, RSI released its Poseidon fusion engine; pushing the new speed limit of space travel to 1/10th the speed of light, or 18,600 miles per second [3].

Thank you, Fox News' Ed Henry, for the scoop that Thomas Friedman is at the White House today, and for pointing out that he may, at this minute, finally be in possession of the very deficit proposals that the White House made months ago. These proposals, widely available on this thing called "the internet," have eluded Friedman for quite some time, if his recent columns can be used as a guide.
How will this affect Friedman's forthcoming output on the matter of "Grand Bargaining?" Let's just say that the next six months will be critical.

Is Nanosonics Ltd a buy after posting a 93% jump in sales?
The shares of infection control solutions provider Nanosonics Ltd. (ASX: NAN) have edged lower in morning trade despite the release of strong full year results. As well as posting a 93% jump in sales to a record $42.8 million, the company reported that a solid second half to the year means it is now in profit and cash flow positive for the first time.
A few highlights include:
Record full year sales of $42.8 million, up 93% on prior year
Maiden full year profit of $122,000, thanks to second half profit of $3.4 million.
First full year of positive free cash…
The shares of infection control solutions provider Nanosonics Ltd. (ASX: NAN) have edged lower in morning trade despite the release of strong full year results. As well as posting a 93% jump in sales to a record $42.8 million, the company reported that a solid second half to the year means it is now in profit and cash flow positive for the first time.
A few highlights include:
- Record full year sales of $42.8 million, up 93% on prior year
- Maiden full year profit of $122,000, thanks to second half profit of $3.4 million.
- First full year of positive free cash flow of $1.9 million.
- Cash balance at year-end of $48.8 million.
- North American installed base grew 74% to over 8,700. Global installed base now over 10,000 units.
Although the market reaction today has been rather subdued, I feel it is worth remembering that its share price has jumped around 20% in the last 30 days in anticipation of a strong full year result. With much of today's result already priced in by the market, I feel it was very unlikely to surge higher.
But don't let the market's reaction fool you. In my opinion this is a fantastic result from the manufacturer and distributor of the trophon EPR ultrasound probe disinfector.
I was very impressed with the growth of the North American installed base. In a short space of time Nanosonics has captured 22% of the market and looks likely to build on this in FY 2017. Management has indicated that the increased awareness of the issues associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) has been a major contributor to the sales momentum in the region.
Clinical studies have shown that the toxic liquid disinfectants being used in high level disinfect ultrasound probes are completely ineffective against HPV, whereas the company's trophon technology is completely effective.
This puts Nanosonics in a very strong position in my view. Especially with recent changes to guidelines by the Scottish National Health Service that support the use of Nanosonics' disinfectant products. Management expects similar guidance will be published in England within the next few months. I expect other countries will also follow suit, which should prove supportive to long-term growth.
So should you invest in Nanosonics? With sales of $42.8 million and a market cap of $820 million it certainly is on the expensive side. But the company does have exceptional growth prospects, a high-quality product, a strong balance sheet, and an experienced and talented management team with executives from ResMed Inc. (CHESS) (ASX: RMD) and Cochlear Limited (ASX: COH). This might just go some way to justifying taking a small position in the company despite its extreme valuation.
Before making an investment in Nanosonics I would highly recommend taking a look to see if you own one of these three rotten ASX shares. If you need to make room in your portfolio these might be the ones to sell.

Mandy is quite busy these days with her growing family and her multiple businesses. Along with running M is for Monster, she also owns an
invitation business called When and Where Invitations. Right now…as I write this, she is helping her mom start her own business making cupcake bouquets for in-home delivery. How cool is that!
I originally found Mandy and her activity boxes on Facebook and have reviewed her activity boxes before. You can read my first review HERE that I did in August of this year. I loved them so much that I opted in for a 3-month subscription. Those three months are now up and I'm back again with another review! Her creative thought-out activities are exceptional, and my son gets a lot out of them. Some activities even reiterates what he is already learning in preschool. We both have fun together making each activity and Brody can not wait until the next box arrives.
In December's Box (my last paid subscription) we found lots of activities for the holidays, including making a snowman, a gingerbread book with stickers, a coffee cup, and even a hat for New Year's. I believe there are photos of the December activities on her website. Definitely worth taking at look at!!
Here's just a few projects I'd like to share with you.
Pizza Palace – kids will get their own little pizza box
to decorate. They will get a dice to put together and roll to add
toppings to their pizza. The toppings are actually shapes, circles
triangles, crescents and rectangles. Preschoolers will get a chart where
they can also graph their pizza toppings to see what toppings they have
the most of.
Trains – paint a train
Lots and lots of wonderful activities for your toddler and preschooler. I can't say enough about her M is for Monster monthly activities. Surprise a little one for this Christmas with a subscription to M is for Monster!
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received one or
more of the products or services mentioned above for free in the hope
that I would mention it on my blog. Regardless, I only recommend
products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my
readers. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade
Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."

In Japan, it's the men who receive gifts of chocolate on Valentine's Day. As reported by the BBC:
"In Japan, things are different. Women are supposed to give chocolate to the men in their lives - boyfriends, co-workers but especially their bosses. The Japanese call it Giri choco, or obligation chocolate, and it's big business. Senior executives receive dozens of chocolate boxes from their female staff, which they often take home and feed to their families and children."
Interestingly, the tradition was started by Japan's leading chocolate manufacturer 40 years ago. Talk about creating your own market.

Save heaven for Mac OS users? Unmasking the Security Myth
"I do not need antivirus software because I am using an Apple Mac!" This unsuspecting view has been far spread till very short time ago. Contrasting to this, we hear in everyday news how many threats are looming to windows OS to steal, modify or simply destroy our data (for example here, in German). Is it really that easy that you can simply avoid any malware by switching to Mac OS and live an easy life? Now, IBM plans to switch from Windows to Apple Mac (in German) on devices for own employees to reduce support and other costs. In addition to this, IBM begins to offer the integration of MAC OS in business environment of its customers as part of its product portfolio. This development triggers Apple to offer OS solutions that fulfill the needs of business environments. But once Apple Mac OS is increasingly used in enterprise environment, it will become much more interesting and attractive as a target for cyber criminals.
Is the Economy Ill-prepared for the Digital Workplace of the Future?
Most employees of companies based in Germany, Austria and Switzerland give their bosses bad marks as far as the preparation for the digital workplace of the future. This is one result of a recent research report entitled "Workplace of the Future".
Asked for the biggest technology pitfalls in the workplace currently, approximately 60 percent of employees express concerns about insufficient remote access to data and 62 percent criticize the response times of information technology (IT) incident management services. Additionally, 58 percent deem their company's IT platforms too inflexible to integrate new requirements, such as those of the digital business world. Read More
Digitalization: The Formula of Success
A recent survey among German, Austrian and Swiss IT decision-makers has shown, for the second year in succession, that companies and industries in these three countries are, to varying degrees, lagging behind in terms of digitalization.
This is partly owed to an obvious underestimation of the significance of the trend that I and my colleagues at CSC do not share. In addition, there is a mix of fears and prejudices, which are, in our opinion, essentially unjustified. Among the latter are, predictably, cost issues, a fear of complexity and a general reluctance to change what are perceived as tried and tested processes and business models. Read More
Customers´ versus Experts´ Perspective in the Insurance Industry
As consumers, we are becoming increasingly digitally savvy and channel a growing part of our communications through social media. By doing so, we are putting the businesses we interact with to a hard test, as strategies and ways to respond to this societal development are diverse and sometimes unclear.
In a recent survey, the 'Digital Insurance Monitor 2016' (DIM), 3,000 insurance customers as well as more than 100 insurance managers from Austria, Italy, Germany, Switzerland and Turkey have been asked the most urgent questions pertaining to the relationship between consumers and their insurance companies.
The following questions had been looked into in more details:
CIO Insights: Marcus Frantz, CIO OMV Group, in an Interview About Digital Transformation
"Whatever I do, whatever I touch, I need to think about information security and provide built-in protection against cyberthreats."
The last year has been challenging for OMV Group, an international, integrated oil and gas company based in Vienna, Austria. It's one of the country's largest industrial companies, with more than 24,000 employees and operations in not only Austria, but also Germany, Hungary, Romania, the North Sea, Middle East and Africa.
The new CEO, Rainer Seele, earlier this year announced a major new strategy. His stringent plan calls for OMV to focus on improving cash flow. That will be done mainly, Seele says, by optimizing the portfolio, reducing overall investments, and cutting exploration and appraisal spending. CIO Marcus Frantz has seen OMV through both the highs and the lows, having joined the company in 2004. He was appointed to his current CIO position in early 2013. Read More

Singer Ricky Martin always rocks. He has sold over 70 million and has 95 platinum records, with concerts in 70 countries all around the world. Is he a hero? Furthermore, his list of awards is endless including two American Music Awards, one Grammy Awards, eight World Music Awards, three Billboard Music Awards, and eight MTV Music Video Awards. What do you think about Ricky Martin? Are you speechless? Me too.
However, he is a wise and humble person. Yareah quote of the day is by Ricky Martin because we love people who believes in our humanity.
"Heroes represent the best of ourselves, respecting that we are human beings. A hero can be anyone from Gandhi to your classroom teacher, anyone who can show courage when faced with a problem. A hero is someone who is willing to help others in his or her best capacity."
Also, Ricky Martin has other kind of awards, maybe more important, because they are speaking about his humanitarian efforts. They include Vanguard Award, International Humanitarian Award by the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children, and Hispanic Heritage Award for his humanitarian work through the Sabera Foundation in rescuing three orphan girls from the streets of Kolkata.
"We all have to go through our own spiritual process. It is very difficult. Some people are struggling and they are in their teens. Some people are in their 50s and they're struggling. Some people go through life and die not being able to accept themselves. Tragic. But it's very individual. And it's about self-esteem."
What do you think about Ricky Martin? Do you love his music? Do you love his personality? Tell us your opinion now!
Enjoy your day, Yareah friends. Art is everywhere and up to you!

Marry Like a Princess, Honeymoon Like a Queen
You don't need to inherit a throne, have your own TV show or have slept in the White House to travel to a celeb-worthy destination. You just need to know where to look.
We're here to help with this round-up of luxurious destination wedding and honeymoon properties, the ultimate in locales frequented by the world's chicest newlyweds, from royals to rock stars.
Royal Holiday
Can't shake Will and Kate fever? Marrying at Westminster Abbey may be out of the question, but hosting a wedding event at The Goring Hotel, the century-old property that the Middleton clan commandeered before the royal nups, is decidedly doable. The 71-room hotel, just yards from Buckingham Palace, was also recently updated to prepare for the future Duchess of Cambridge's bridal party.
Or, take your royal watch one step further and honeymoon where the future King of England took his bride: the Seychelles, an archipelago of islands off the coast of Kenya. While their exact locale in Seychelles is still a palace secret, it's not hard to imagine them at the luxurious Banyan Tree Seychelles, a property truly fit for royalty.
Model Behavior
If a fashionable destination wedding in the spirit of "Mosstock," the unofficial label given to the three-day affair that Kate Moss and new hubby James Hince hosted at her estimated $3 million home in the rolling hills near Gloucestershire, England, is your speed, then consider renting one of many darling cottages in the Cotswolds available on HomeAway.com, a trusted vacation home rental site.
Don't let the lack of luxury hotels in the area fool you. The verdant region is filled with celebrity neighbors like Stella McCartney, Damien Hirst, Kate Winslet and J. K. Rowling, who all call the Cotswolds home.
Then, take off on a honeymoon that follows Moss and Hince's jetsetting ways. Don't have a pal like Top Shop owner Sir Philip Green to lend you a yacht? Book your own intimate luxury yacht tour of the Mediterranean, including Corsica, with Variety Cruises.

that took me a while to get 'heart' clever thought.
"The Arts. We love the arts. You love the arts. But the Government, they ain't loving the arts right now."
This is so very much sharper than any writing for arts organizations being done in the U.S. Love the frank, somewhat peevish tone there.

On May 1st, 2013 we'll be launching an 8 session sales training program that takes place right on your computer screen!
That means . . .
No shelling out a bunch of cash for flights and hotels.
No rushing around busy airports.
No time away from work, family friends in fact . . .
If the day and time of each session doesn't work for you . . . view the recording and slides at your leisure!
Here's how the program works . . .
Starting May 1st, 2013 we'll meet once a week for 45 – 60 minutes for 8 weeks.
Here's what we'll cover . . .
Session 1: Meticulous Pre Call Planning. We'll talk about 5 really bad "Google" mistakes most sales reps make and how you can use Pre Call Planning to out fox your competitors!
Session 2: Prospecting Part I In this session, we'll talk about phone techniques, overcoming objections etc. We'll even get into some really cool things you can do to help you with nervousness and call reluctance . . . You're welcome!
Session 3: Prospecting Part II In this session, we'll talk about how you can leverage things like email and social networks like Linkedin, Twitter etc. We'll also talk about two other really deadly techniques called "Mixing and Mapping".
Session 4: How To Create A More Productive Prospect Meeting. We'll talk about how you can immediately take control (without being controlling, the 1 question that sets the direction for your meeting and the 5 "insurance" policies you must take out during your time together!
Session 5: Determining Needs. You'll learn several questioning techniques with a guarantee from yours truly not to regurgitate any of that "open questions/closed questions" crap. Been there, done that . . . its time for a fresh approach! In fact, I'll show you how you can emotionally charge your prospects to get them off the old fence of indifference and over to something we like to call "A decision" I know . . . cool concept
Session 6: Presenting Your Solutions With IMPACT You'll learn how to bring a certain part of your offering to life that 99.9% of the sales population misses entirely. We'll talk about how you can eliminate reservations your prospect might have and maybe even set the rules of engagement so your competitors have to play a defensive game!
Session 7: Gaining Commitment That old "Always Be Closing" thing is a tad antiquated these days so we'll explore techniques designed to have them "buying" without you having to use any of that really awful "If I could show you a way to ___________ would you seriously consider . . . " monkey style kung fu!
Session 8: Turning A "No" Into A "Yes" Let's face it, as good as we all like to think we are, people are going to tell us "no". Now what? I'll give you a little hint (don't tell anyone) You need a plan from the word "No" and Uncle Paul has you covered!
Between sessions there will be assignments and reinforcement emails! You're going to get your uniform dirty with this program!
Here's what you'll get . . .
(8) 45-60 minute sessions via webinar.
Access to the recordings for 60 days.
A downloadable worksheet for each session.
A reinforcement email each week during the program.
Optional: (2) 1 on 1 coaching sessions. See pricing below.
Email support for any questions!
Plus there might just be a surprise or two along the way because that's I how I roll! Guilty as charged baby!
Who should attend?
Anyone in the B2B space who would like to gain some ridiculous sales chops! Veterans, beginners, people who are struggling and people who simply want to get better!
What's the payoff?
While I'll certainly do my part, the payoff is going to be up to YOU and your willingness to apply the material and put in the work but…
What's the payoff to you if you get only one new client as a result of something you learned during our time together?
So What's The Investment Paul?
Funny you should ask . . .
I decided to make this course more affordable by making the coaching sessions that were previously included, optional.
That means if you'd like to take the course without the (2) 1 on 1 coaching sessions, the investment will be $395 and if you'd like the (2) 1 on 1 coaching sessions, the investment will be $495.
Note: Email me if you'd like to know the discounted rate for for 2 or more participants or if you'd like information on how I can customize this program for your team!
Paul's training techniques are from extensive research as well as his own first hand experiences in the sales field. He is committed to his "product", his customers as well as making a difference in people's lives.
We took his Training Session as a group here at Keys and each of us sales reps had "aha" moments in improving techniques, questions, being a "RESOURCE" for our clients, etc.
Paul is a pure and compassionate individual and would enhance ANY company's sales force! He truly makes a difference in lives and companies! And THAT affects the bottom line of any company.
Anita Barrett, Keys Printing
8 Week Program With (2) 30 – 45 minute 1 on 1 sessions
