Teachers and Goodstart center leaders received a New Year`s surprise when they returned to work after their Christmas holidays. The IEU has been informed by Goodstart that teachers and centre principals will benefit from a 4.2% increase from February 2019 before negotiations on a new deal begin later this year. The IEU has successfully negotiated increases of 4.2% per year for teachers and centre principals in the current agreement, which expires in February this year. The last 4.2% increase in the current agreement was paid in February 2018. The IEU applauds Goodstart`s commitment to its employees. Negotiations on a new agreement will begin next year. IEUE will contact Goodstart members earlier this year to discuss any issues to be included in a new agreement. This issue related to an application under the Fair Work Act, 2009 to determine whether a company agreement with Goodstart Early Learning Limited is compatible with National Employment Standards (NES). The agreement applies to 16,000 employees of the employer`s 656 childcare facilities, which are based throughout Australia. The question was whether employers should pay annual leave in the event of an employee`s dismissal. The IEU has successfully negotiated annual increases of 4.2% for teachers and principals at the centre in the current agreement, which expires in February this year. The last 4.2% increase in the current agreement was paid in February 2018. Goodstart teachers and principals had a surprise for the new year when they returned to work after the Christmas holidays.

This provision was read in the light of section 90(2) of the Fair Work Act 2009, which provides that in the event of dismissal, the amount due will be due when the employee has taken leave (if he or she has taken annual leave). The IEU applauds Goodstart`s commitment to its employees. Negotiations on a new agreement will begin in the new year. The IEU will contact Goodstart members earlier this year to discuss any issues they would like to see in a new agreement. This section is covered by the NES, which aims to establish national minimum standards and which, as such, cannot be excluded by an assignment, agreement or other instrument. However, particular attention was paid to the concepts of `amount that should have been paid to the worker if he had taken that leave` and it was considered that, in that particular agreement, the absence of leave expenses should be the applicable minimum standard.

If you work at a preschool or early learning centre that is not covered by a company agreement, contact Lisa James (email@example.com), IEU organiser, to discuss how the union can help you. Goodstart Early Learning is Australia`s largest provider of early learning. Founded in 2010 by a consortium of charities, Goodstart is a non-profit organisation that currently has 649 childcare centres across Australia. From 1 March 2002, workers will be entitled to four weeks of paid parental leave, which will increase to six weeks of paid leave after 1 March 2024. The IEU congratulates its members on the significant improvements in wages and working conditions achieved through their continued participation in the bargaining process. These improvements would never have been possible without YOUR solidarity and YOUR action! The Goodstart Early Learning Enterprise Agreement was approved by the Fair Work Board on August 5, 2021. Casual workers will not receive the same wage increases as permanent employees in 2022 and 2023.
We will all get the same increase in our base rate, but in 2022 the occasional fee will be reduced from 1% to 22%, and then in 2023 to 21%. The Director`s annual allowance will be increased to $6365 for 0 to 39 seats, $7912 for 40 to 59 seats and $9577 for 60 or more seats. Together, you are strong. Stewards are ready to support members in the coming weeks through environmental assessment information sessions and the voting process. Up to two days of personal leave can be used as wellness vacation Goodstart has introduced a new salary scale and teachers will receive salary increases retroactive to the first full pay period from 1 July 2021. The start-up rate has been increased to reflect the rates paid to graduates employed by the New South Wales Department of Education. The increases to be paid in 2022 and 2023 are calculated based on the percentage increase in the minimum wage. Education officials advance an additional pay point on the salary scale. If the Director of Education has the highest pay point for his classification, he will receive an allowance of $1.40 per hour. .

Did you know that peripheral neuropathy affects more than 30 million Americans? Or that it can impact a patient's body in many ways? That's because the peripheral nerves include everything from sensory to motor and autonomic nerves. These nerves connect the skin, internal organs, and muscles to the spinal cord. And the pain and discomfort associated with them may get exacerbated by factors such as injury, disease, vitamin deficiencies, and inflammation.
Here's what your patients need to know about this American epidemic, who it impacts, and what next steps look like.
What Is Peripheral Neuropathic Pain?
What do you need to tell your patients about peripheral neuropathic pain? For starters, make sure they realize individuals experience symptoms of this disorder in a variety of different ways. For example, a person may describe the sensation as numbness, pain, weakness, or tingling in the extremities. Some patients also report a pins-and-needles feeling.
Why do patients experience these out-of-the-ordinary sensations? Because when their nerve fibers get damaged, they malfunction. As a result, the fibers send the wrong signals to the body's pain centers. What's more, where nerve damage occurs, nerve fiber function may be altered.
Who Does Peripheral Neuropathy Impact?
Who proves most vulnerable to this type of neuropathic pain? This condition can occur in people from all walks of life. Your patients must realize that if they're among the 30 million Americans with diabetes, their odds of experiencing peripheral neuropathy increase dramatically. How dramatically? Sixty percent of those diagnosed with diabetes deal with neuropathic pain.
But the buck doesn't stop at diabetes. Other conditions also contribute to the onset of peripheral nerve discomfort. These conditions may include chemotherapy, drug use, alcoholism, and exposure to industrial toxins. As you can see, our contemporary world represents a perfect storm of contributing factors to this ailment. And it's up to you to ensure your patients understand this.
What Does It Feel Like?
What are some of the symptoms most widely reported with peripheral neuropathy? They include:
What to Do About It
Left untreated, diabetic neuropathy can come with devastating consequences. These consequences include everything from debilitating pain to amputation. How prevalent is amputation as an outcome? Roughly 86,000 Americans with untreated neuropathy require it each year. That's why it's so vital for you to help your patients create a multi-pronged approach to treating peripheral nerve pain.
This approach includes proper nutrition and paying attention to patients' nitric oxide levels. That's why we recommend testing your patients' levels every time they visit your clinic. They should also incorporate a high-quality nitrate supplement that's easily absorbable into their daily routine. Here's where to shop for the best test strips and supplements.
Patient Resources: Where to Start
Ramping up your patients' nitric oxide will set the stage for optimal outcomes by using infrared light therapy that releases that gas molecule to enter the endothelial cells and begin the process of vasodilation. This innovative approach eliminates the shortcomings of other modalities used to treat peripheral neuropathy, making your life easier and your patients' lives more comfortable. Find out more about this therapeutic approach.
3/30/2023 04:56:48 pm
While this article provides a good overview of peripheral neuropathy, it oversimplifies the treatment approach by suggesting that ramping up nitric oxide levels and using infrared light therapy is the solution. While these therapies may provide some relief, they should be used in conjunction with other evidence-based treatments such as medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes. Additionally, it is important to note that not all patients with neuropathy have low nitric oxide levels, and testing and supplementing nitric oxide should be done on a case-by-case basis with guidance from a medical professional.

Moderna Inc. (NasdaqGS: MRNA) surged Monday after the company's Covid-19 vaccine was granted a provisional adult authorization in Australia, lifting biotechnology sector-related exchange traded funds.
On Monday, the VanEck Vectors Biotech ETF (BBH) rose 3.0% and the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF (IBB) gained 2.3%.
Meanwhile, Moderna shares jumped 16.9% on Monday. MRNA makes up 5.8% of BBH's underlying portfolio and 5.5% of IBB.
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has granted provisional registration to the COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna in Australia for active immunization for adults 18 years of age and older, according to Business Wire.
"I want to thank the government of Australia for their collaboration and for the confidence they have demonstrated in COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna with this decision," Stéphane Bancel, Chief Executive Officer of Moderna, said in the press release. "As we seek to protect people around the world with our COVID-19 vaccine, we look forward to continuing discussions with the Australian Government about potentially establishing local mRNA manufacturing capabilities."
The Australian government has purchased 10 million doses of COVID-19 Vaccine Moderna for delivery in 2021 and can execute an option to acquire another 15 million doses in 2022.
Moderna has also received emergency authorization use of its COVID-19 vaccine from health agencies in over 50 countries, along with an Emergency Use Listing from the World Health Organization.
Moderna is also pushing for COVID-19 booster shots. The company argues that vaccinated people will need booster shots before the end of the year due to the widely circulating delta variant, MarketWatch reports.
"A dose three of a booster will likely be necessary to keep us as safe as possible through the winter season in (the) Northern Hemisphere," Moderna President Stephen Hoge told investors, according to a FactSet transcript of the company's Thursday earnings call.

Earl Starkey planned a fantastic trip for us with excellent guides that went out of their way for us. We were a group of 10 and Earl made sure there was cold bottled water at all times in our van. The van was always clean and the guides were always on time. Earl planned our trip exactly to our specifications. All the hotels were perfect and his recommendations for restaurants were spot on. Originally, I did not want to go on a boat for the day in Bodrum and now I am very glad I did. Actually, the fresh fish on the boat was one of the best meals we had. When there were any bumps and/or mishaps, Earl and his staff were able to take care of things immediately. Our guide in Istanbul, Adnan Duvenci, was exceptional and if I go back to Istanbul I would request Adnan again.
So far, every travel agent I have found from Wendy's WOW List has been excellent.
We recently returned from a trip to Turkey arranged for us by Earl Starkey. We were combining this with another trip and had just five days to spend in Istanbul and Cappadocia. Earl helped us make the most of it. We went back and forth on the things we wanted to see, and Earl gave us good advice on the pros and cons of different sites and experiences.
We've found that a key factor in our enjoyment of a trip is the guide. And Riza, our guide in Istanbul, was fantastic — deeply knowledgeable, very energetic, passionate about his country, and fun! We also had an excellent guide in Cappadocia, Basri, who on the spur of the moment got us tickets to see the whirling dervishes and recommended a great restaurant for us. Both guides were wonderful at asking us if we wanted our photos taken — something I forget to ask guides to do. With Riza and Basri, I didnt have to remember. They just did it.
For more than a decade, we've used Wendy's recommendations for planning our trips and we experienced our first WOW Moment on this vacation. We cruised the Bosphorus on a beautiful private yacht. Lovely. Just lovely.
We traveled to Turkiye in late September 2022. Earl Starkey outlined an excellent literary and experience. We first considered enlisting in a group tour, but decided to go with Earl's services as we wanted more individual attention than one typically receives with a group tour. To our surprise, this personal experience was less expensive than the group tours we considered. The individual guide and driver services exceeded our expectations. Such personalized service was excellent, as it was crafted to our desires and interests. From beginning to end, our experience in both Istanbul and Cappadocia could not have been better.
Our guide in Istanbul was Reza. He spoke perfect English, and provided a warm and friendly welcome. He openly discussed many of the issues in his country that we were curious about. He was quite engaging in his telling of the story of Turkiye, its history, and its relics from the long past. He knew the best times to go to each venue, got us in ahead of the crowds, and was one of the best and most informed guides I have had the good fortune of working with.
Our guide in Cappadocia, Basri was excellent—a very friendly and personable individual who assumed responsibility for taking care of us. He was informed by his lifelong residency in the region and provided some of the best experiences we have had while traveling in a foreign country. He brought us to a place in the country where we met with a family with whom we had tea, and we got to see spots that are not typically offered in group tours. Going to lunch was something that was also a great experience. We had him order for us, as we had tried with some dinners and it was hit and miss. He ordered some of the most fabulous food I have ever eaten, and our service was exceptional. His personal knowledge of the region gave us a passport to an adventure of a lifetime.
In summary, the quality of the services were the best we could have experienced. I highly recommend Earl Starkey and his team to show you their part of the world in a friendly, safe, and entertaining way.
PANDEMIC TRAVEL Earl Starkey was very easy to work with and met all our expectations. The guide he assigned to us in Istanbul was named "Erkut." Erkut is extremely knowledgeable, excellent English, and very much wanted to meet our needs. It was a perfect addition to our stay in Turkey. The only minor complaint was our Hotel rooms were very small, but hotel service and location was excellent. Earl with Erkut created a great and enjoyable trip for us. Thank you.
PANDEMIC TRAVEL Our request to Earl was a bit of an unusual one – we already were joining a cooking seminar in Antalya and Istanbul for a week prior, so were just looking for someone to plan a four day extension to Cappadocia in March 2022. Earl went above and beyond. He recommended and booked an exquisitely beautiful, perfectly located hotel in Cappadocia that turned out to be one of my favorites anywhere (great rooms, great food, great service). He paid attention to our interests and planned an itinerary accordingly. He was always super responsive to our emails and requests, and handled everything with a nice sense of humor. And perhaps most importantly, the guide he picked for us, Riza, was among the best I've had anywhere in the world. A wealth of knowledge with a can do, flexible attitude, and a great conversationalist, Riza quickly got our vibe and interests and made everything just that much more fun and interesting. As an obsessive with respect to all things food, I liked that he made sure I tried all the local specialties. Between Earl, Riza and our driver Mehmet, it was a seamless and truly memorable trip and they will be my first call (through Wendy of course!) when I return to Turkey, which I now hope will be very very soon. Now – with respect to Covid – we had a little bit of chaos when the Turkish Airlines representative wouldn't accept our test results because they were more than 24 hours before our international flight (and contended that Emed video testing was a "home test.") Anyway, that was in no way Earl or Riza's fault, and in fact, we were thankful that Riza was still with us and was able to advocate with us with the airline, translate for us at the testing center, and generally manage the process until we were safely on the plane. Can't recommend this team enough.
PANDEMIC TRAVEL What a spectacular trip! I was desperate to go anywhere this fall after a long quarantine in New York. Earl was incredibly responsive and after just one phone call, our itinerary was quickly assembled. Our amazing guide Riza and our lovely drivers could not have been more thoughtful and careful given the pandemic, and our itinerary was constantly being tweaked to avoid crowds, maximize time outdoors, while not missing a single sight! All our hotels had rigorous pandemic protocols that made us feel safe as we enjoyed the magical cities we explored. Earl also helped us adapt our itinerary throughout the trip. We booked the Bosphorus cruise while in Turkey after initially opting out and it turned out to be a true highlight. We appreciated all the helpful guidance from Riza, who blended tremendous historical knowledge, with incredible recommendations for restaurants, quick bites, and quality vendors for souvenir purchases. He made sure we missed absolutely nothing while making sure we weren't exhausted. I don't know how he did it, but his guidance truly made the trip. It was incredible having him as a constant presence throughout our trip. This was a truly remarkable trip and I strongly encourage anyone who feels comfortable traveling to take the opportunity to visit Turkey without the crowds.
One word of warning, no one in the Cappadocia balloon ride apart from us wore their mask and there was little enforcement although the pilot did try. Most tourists were from Russia and showed an utter lack of regard for the pandemic. Warn any guests that might be sensitive. I don't want to recommend against the balloon company though because they objectively were excellent pilots and got down into the canyons in a way that other companies did not.
We had a great time in Turkey planned by Earl. The selection of hotels was fantastic. The guides in Istanbul and Izmir were extraordinary and the local transportation was great.
The trip was designed very well. We had visited all the places that we needed to visit and also had time to ourselves. Hotel recommendations were superb, the guide was very good – I would not change anything. Earl is absolutely amazing at all the recommendations and details. Thank you, Earl!
Earl was easy to work with. He was knowledgeable, helpful and made our trip easy. We loved the hotels that he chose for us and we would recommend them. The guides and drivers were all very pleasant, fun and they made our trip special.
My wife and I chose Istanbul as the place we wanted to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Overall, we had a fantastic experience, and especially enjoyed our super-guide/confidante – Mr. Reza Yenice. His encyclopedic knowledge of the city and country, as well as his excellent spoken English, made our visit informative and worry-free. We spent most of our visit in Istanbul but traveled to Ephesus for a day trip. My wife and I would highly recommend Earl and his team to anyone considering visiting Turkey. Also, we found it to be safe and friendly — no security issues whatsoever.
This is the 2nd time I have used Earl Starkey to plan our vacation in Turkey with my Turkish husband and in-laws. Earl and his team exceeded our expectations in planning and executing our itinerary. Earl is gracious, quick to respond when contacted, knowledgeable, and well connected. We switched some of the itinerary around at the last minute which Earl and his team handled seamlessly.
The hotel we stayed at was a perfect match for our likes. We had the best room location in the hotel.
The driver, Ali, did small extra touches for us without us asking. The guide, Burju, was excellent. She is well versed in ancient history, modern history, as well as open and willing to talk about any question we asked. She shared with us local cultural highlights. When we went to a restaurant that did not have the menu items we were looking for, Burju and Ali were able to quickly take us to another that was exactly what we were looking for. In addition, I asked Burju to simultaneously translate for me stories being told by a native Turk at one of the sights we were visiting which she did flawlessly. This enabled me to participate in the conversation as if I was a native speaker and part of the group. I felt like a local. This was a priceless experience that can only be done with a top-tier guide.
Traveling in Turkey with native Turks provides an extra challenge for any travel expert as Turks are very discerning clients. As they are native speakers as well as familiar with the country and culture, a travel expert, driver, guide, or hotelier will be quickly spotted if anything less than top-notch service is provided. My Turkish family raved about all facets of our trip. We will be contacting Earl again for our next family vacation in Turkey.
If you want to have a wonderful trip to Turkey, feel well cared for with all your desires met, then without a moments hesitation contact Earl to plan your trip.
We traveled to Turkey in April 2016 with Earl Starkey. We travel a lot and have experience with various travel companies. Earl and his team didn't disappoint, actually truly exceeded expectations! All guides were exceptional, knowledgeable and enthusiastic! Nothing was missed, the hotels – perfect, the sites -fascinating, the choices for dining – perfect. I would highly recommend.
Visit Turkey—it will not disappoint—and use Earl Starkey. He will help you to design the PERFECT trip!
Earl and his team have done amazing work with trips. It is our first time in Turkey, and I am glad I got in touch with Earl. Earl was there every step of the way. I was very vague in my initial email to Earl, I simply informed him what I like and what my mother likes to do. Earl was able to read my mind. He gave good advice and pointers on what we can do in Turkey, and designed an itinerary that was very relaxing and easy for my mum to follow. It was also flexible enough for some last minute changes. As a result, we had an extraordinary time in Turkey. We enjoyed every moment. The food was amazing (I'm still dreaming about the tomatoes!!), the sites were all that I wanted to see (if not more!) and the hotels…. My mum couldn't stop talking about the Gulu Konak and Museum Hotel… Amazing places! Let's not forget the guides and drivers…. Guzin in Istanbul, Basri in Cappadocia, and Tan in Izmir were all wonderful and very knowledgeable. And let's not forget Ali! What an amazing person!! I left my mobile in the car a few times, and he always managed to find it.
One of our domestic flights was delayed for 3 hours, and Earl & Co was able to reorganize our transfer to hotel- so that is very much appreciated! For me the idea of being able to contact Earl and/or his team at Sophisticated Travel gave me the peace of mind that I needed on this trip especially since I was traveling with my mum. In addition, we were upgraded in every hotel that we stayed in courtesy of Earl and Sophisticated Travel. So thank you very much!!
We left Turkey feeling that we needed to come back for more, thanks to Earl and his team at Sophisticated Travel.
My husband and I used Earl to plan a 3-day itinerary in Konya for ourselves and my in-laws. My husband and family are all native Turks, which provided an extra challenge to planning the itinerary.
After an initial phone conversation with Earl where he took time to understand our desire to see Konya and what our needs were, we were presented with a 3-day touring itinerary with private car, driver, guide, restaurant, and hotel arrangements.
The itinerary was perfect. In fact a friend who was originally from Konya commented that she had not heard of some of the places we went to visit. She was going to go and visit them after seeing our pictures.
One challenge we presented was I only speak limited Turkish, my mother-in-law speaks limited English, and my father-in-law speaks no English, so we needed a guide who could give a tour in both English and Turkish. Our guide, Eyup, did a beautiful job in going back and forth between both languages. He brought his personal love for Konya and it's surrounds into his narrative. He also was gracious and honest in answering all of our questions on Mevlana, the modern city of Konya, and general questions about Turkey. The driver, Cengiz, was very professional and courteous. The car was always clean and ready to pick us up at whatever location we ended up at.
We also used some of Earl's recommendations for restaurants in Istanbul which were spot on. My brother and sister-in-law, who live in Istanbul, had not heard of these restaurants and loved them too.
After our great experience with Earl, I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a trip to Turkey.

I ett domstolsbeslut tvingas nu Telia att lämna ut 5.300 IP-adresser som går till personer som laddat ned olika filmer via torrent-sajter som ThePirateBay.
Filmerna som laddats ned är bland annat London Has Fallen och September of Shiraz.
Här nedan finner du mer information från NordVPN som bevakat rättsfallet:
Identities of people behind 5,300 IP addresses will be handed over to a known copyright troll, Patent and Market Court of Sweden has ruled. Their crime? Allegedly downloading and sharing movies, such as London Has Fallen, Criminal and September of Shiraz.
Thousands of households will be affected in this new development, where ISPs are forced by a court order to hand over personal identities of thousands of their subscribers.
Swedish ISP Telia will be the first ISP to give away subscriber names to a legal firm representing film producers, but other ISPs, such as Tele2 and Bredbansbolaget are also being targeted to reveal their user personal information.
In a similar development in Australia a couple of years ago, Dallas Buyers Club movie producers went to court demanding the names of thousands of Australians who supposedly downloaded the movie illegally. While the federal judge first ruled in favour of copyright holders, the ruling was later overturned due to "excessive demands, unsupported by evidence."
In Sweden last month, this fight led to the first significant victory for copyright holders, as the Court ruled: "There is probable cause of infringement of copyright in the films in that they were made unlawfully made available to the public via file sharing networks."
"Online privacy is a very fragile thing," says Marty P. Kamden, CMO of NordVPN (Virtual Private Network). "When your Internet provider can take your data and give it to court for criminal prosecution, you become identified as a potential criminal. From that moment on, you have no control over your private data, and you don't know in whose hands it might end up.
ISPs that give away their subscribers' data are only one example in the growing trend of online privacy invasion. Governments also require ISPs to give away user data, people are being surveilled online by secret services and tracked by advertisers.
The problem with copyright issues is that they are often abused by copyright trolls, who threaten file sharers with lawsuits. Copyright holders happen to misuse the system and issue demands that are not based on law, for example, by utilizing a legal loophole and requiring settlement fees.For example, one of the most infamous cases of copyright trolling in the U.S. has recently ended when one of Prenda Law attorneys pleaded guilty to federal charges of fraud and money laundering. John Steele and his co-defendant Paul Hansmeier had defrauded Internet users of over $6 million by threatening them with copyright lawsuits.
While NordVPN does not support illegal downloading and file sharing, it strongly believes in every person's right to stay private online. NordVPN helps anonymize browsing the Internet with its modern security protocols and no logs policy.

Dodging incoming rounds from U.S.-supplied HIMARS rocket launchers won't be one of the events this month during the International Army Games hosted by the Russian Ministry of Defense, but the Games will go on.
Despite a flood of sanctions and boycotts organized by the U.S. and its allies over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, teams from 31 countries have confirmed they will participate in this year's games, which run from August 13 to August 27. The first International Army Games was held in Russia in 2015.
Many of the participating countries are reliable allies of Russia, like China and Belarus, but delegations from European countries like Denmark, Germany and even the U.S. also have attended past games, either as competitors or observers.
"The teams of Saudi Arabia and Rwanda will take part in the Games for the first time," the Russian defense ministry officials said, according to the state-owned TASS news agency. Venezuela, whose socialist government has long clashed with Washington, is sending a military team to compete for the first time as well.
The International Army Games resemble the Olympics with cheering crowds and breathless television coverage. But instead of a high jump and 400-meter sprint, imagine racing tanks and artillery competitions. There are competitions in anti-aircraft fire, artillery calculations, military engineering and defense against bioweapons and other weapons of mass destruction.
Iran is sending four teams to take part in the games, including Navy commandos from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) — which the U.S. officially considers a terrorist organization — and a tank biathlon unit from the Army, according to the official Tasnim News Agency.
This year's International Army Games are the first since Russia's invasion of Ukraine almost six months ago. Other countries are hosting some of the events, such as Venezuela where the sniper competition will take place.
China sent a train to Russia, laden with personnel and military vehicles, to take part in this year's games. It's a sign Beijing doesn't plan on pressing too hard against Moscow for its actions in Ukraine.
Russia has taken an estimated 70,000 to 80,000 casualties — both killed and wounded — since late February when their tanks first rolled across the border with Ukraine. The decision to hold the games this year seems to indicate Moscow wants the world to know they haven't been bowed by the West-imposed sanctions.
But, at least 50 countries have sent military aid to Ukraine since the invasion — more than the number taking part in the Russian-sponsored Army Olympics. Ukraine has never participated in any of the eight annual editions of the competition.

Abby Lee Miller's Instagram Post Leaves 'Dance Moms' Fans Really Confused
Is Abby Lee Miller OK? A recent Instagram post from the 52-year-old reality TV star had Dance Moms fans wondering if something was really wrong with the dance teacher and choreographer. Fortunately, it seems that the worries were just a product of some people misinterpreting something Miller shared on social media.
The post that caused all the confusion
On June 24, Miller shared a photo of herself wiping a tear away from her eyes. It was accompanied by a broken heart emoji and a caption that read "#RIP#LinkInBio."
The link in Miller's Instagram bio went to a US Weekly article about celebrities who have died in 2019. But apparently, many people didn't bother to click the link, leading to some serious confusion.
Fans were worried that Miller had died
Comments were disabled on Miller's original post, but fans flooded a post from earlier that day with questions.
"Can someone explain Abbys recent post" asked one person. "Are you hacked?" another wondered.
"DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO ABBY???!!!???" wrote one panicked fan. "Did she die?!" another chimed in.
Miller was recognizing celebrities who had passed
Miller's cryptic post apparently didn't have anything to do with her health, as some fans feared. Instead, it was her way of recognizing some of the celebrities who have passed away so far this year, including Gloria Vanderbilt, Doris Day, and John Singleton.
Though Miller appears to be fine — she was a guest on E!'s Daily Pop earlier on Monday — it's not totally surprising that Dance Moms fans were worried that the worst might have happened. After all, it wasn't that long ago that she was sharing updates about her battle with Burkitt lymphoma. Miller was diagnosed with the rare cancer in 2018.
Today, she's cancer-free
View this post on Instagram
One year ago today ~ I underwent emergency surgery for an infection in my spine. This mass/tumor choking my spinal cord turned out to be Burkitt Lymphoma. I endured ten rounds of chemo therapy (each lasting 6 days with 4/ 24hr bags pumping poison into my body ending with a spinal tap in 3 spots, plus another shot of Chemo into my tailbone area up the spinal cord around my brain cavity) Ten times! Another spine surgery was needed & I have one more still to go. I struggled thru months of physical therapy to learn to sit up again, to crawl and maybe with a miracle someday I'll walk. Why didn't the ER Doctors on duty do their jobs? I came in twice with the same symptoms? Why didn't somebody listen to me, the patient? I finally found the right team that's why I lived to tell my story, I have a lot to say! Thank you to all wonderful top notch professionals who continue to help me heal. For those who missed it, misdiagnosed me, and the so called Federal "Doctor" who took me off medication cold turkey and the other ER "Doctor Hollywood" who told me to go home and take it easy for 10 days – STOP practicing! Please ??
In 2018, shortly after she was released from prison, Miller underwent emergency surgery due to an infection in her spine. Doctors discovered that she had Burkitt lymphoma, a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. She underwent 10 rounds of chemotherapy to treat the disease. Fortunately, the treatments were successful, and Miller revealed that she was cancer-free in May 2019.
"The cancer is completely gone," the Dance Moms star told People. Miller said that feeling like she still had things she wanted to accomplish helped her power through the grueling treatment.
"I pushed through because I feel like I have more to do," she went on to say. "I want to be an executive producer. I have three other shows and a cartoon that I've created. I want to do what I really do — I create. I can make something magical and wonderful out of nothing. I do it every week."
"I have goals," Miller continued. "I have dreams and I want to see them come to fruition. I want to retire and want to be able to live out my days financially secure. That's what everyone wants."

Perceived negative environmental effects associated with chlorine bleaching have led to the development and implementation of pulp bleaching technologies which eliminate the use of elemental chlorine (ECF) or any chlorine containing compounds (TCF). Commercial implementation of these technologies has moved forward; however, the research necessary to fully understand the impact of effluents from these new bleaching technologies on the environment and on existing biological treatment processes has lagged behind, and is for many novel bleaching sequences, non-existent. This study examined the impact of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and chelating agents on the characteristics and treatment of TCF and ECF kraft effluents.
Effluent BOD was reduced approximately 25% by addition of H2O2 concentrations from 20-640 mg/L, however, effluent toxicity was not affected by hydrogen peroxide concentrations of up to 640 mg/L. Unacclimated activated sludge was inhibited by sudden exposure to shock doses of hydrogen peroxide. While the viability of the sludge (as measured by the rate of substrate metabolism) was profoundly affected, the effect was reversible, with full recovery of metabolic activity restored within approximately 10 hours of the shock. In continuous trials, as the activated sludge reactor became acclimated to H2O2, the kinetics of degradation of hydrogen peroxide increased.
Chelating agents, particularly diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), were also found to have a dramatic impact on sludge viability and reactor performance. Batch tests indicated a DTPA dose-dependent decrease in oxygen uptake rate. Introduction of DTPA at levels commonly found in TCF effluents to continuous reactors resulted in a disruption of floc structure and a 39% decrease in BOD removal efficiency. Removal of acute toxicity as measured by Microtox was maintained despite the poor BOD removal efficiency.

Donating Just One Tablet & A Laptop Can Blow Away Boundaries
Reusing surplus IT assets for non-profit organizations and schools is a great idea we see put into action every day. And while massive response from corporate donors of caches—like 30 laptops and 50 tablets—being donated makes for better headlines, we pause for a story that proves it's not the numbers that matter.
For many with developmental disadvantages in the Purdue University area, Life Has No Boundaries (LHNB) is an organization that revolutionizes day-to-day life through education and training on life skills, like: grocery shopping, personal hygiene, chores, and cooking. But in order to fulfill the organization's mission "to foster independence and friendships and improve the quality of life for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities," LHNB has to rely on technology.
Unlocking human potential through tech
We've talked before about the potential of technology to empower individuals, on our other blog. Understanding this intrinsic power of technology to teach and facilitate positive change in people is how an organization like Life Has No Boundaries is able to bring change so effectively. Using technology to create lessons, to show instructional videos and illustrations, and to track progress all enable Alyssa Montgomery, executive director and owner of LHNB, to bring critical life skills to her students in a powerful way.
Alyssa previously worked as a life-skills teacher for a different program but noticed many of her students would stop learning and fall out of the community after high school. In wanting to give her students a better quality of life ongoing, she started No Boundaries in a church on Purdue's campus. She quickly realized that many of the LHNB students are visual learners, so being able to pull up pictures, videos, and web apps was especially important.
Take two devices and make a huge impact
Through GoodTogether, Huntington Bank was able to provide the fledgling organization with a laptop and an iPad. Just two devices out of the multitude of donations Huntington has provided over the years, but two devices that nonetheless make a world of difference for a community of people with developmental disabilities. Proving that it's not in the quantity of technology, but the use of that technology, where real change happens. Life Has No Boundaries received these devices in the last days of 2019 and beginning of 2020.
Understandably, Alyssa was overjoyed to receive the donation—especially since she had no idea where that conversation with her bank teller, a few months before, would lead. Alyssa funds LHNB through Huntington and was chatting with April, a Huntington employee, about the program. Not too long after, Sage was contacted by that branch to process a donation for Alyssa's organization.
Remember that changing lives does not have to be a monumental task. Even just one donation to the right recipient can provide so much positive change. Life Has No Boundaries serves as a great example of how donations of any quantity can elevate the lives of so many people. Life Has No Boundaries, and many organizations like it, are still helping people even during the pandemic. The need for technology has never been greater, and single donations like this one might just be the answer to this incredible opportunity.

ISU's grounds management team, partnering with the Town of Normal, has established a recycling program that has turned solid wood waste into a usable product, saving the university money and solving a problem for the town.
"On campus, we generate a large amount of solid wood waste," O'Grady says. "Wood items include the expected brush from trees and shrubs, but also desks, tables and chairs, as well as a large amount of dimensional lumber, doors, and cabinets. Prior to this cooperative recycling program, we loaded this wood into our compactor and hauled it to the local landfill."
At the same time the department was hauling away wood, it also was purchasing hardwood mulch to top-dress 27 acres of shrub beds and to ring trees at an annual cost of $16,000.
The town picks up yard waste from residents' homes weekly and grinds this material into wood chips, which it offers back to the residents to use in their yards. The town had no problem getting rid of the mulch during the growing season. But in winter, the process generated a great deal of yard waste, even though there was very little demand from residents. The town had a storage space problem.
The town and the ISU grounds department got together to successfully resolve these wood management issues.
ISU provided space at its nursery for the town to stockpile the mulch whenever space problems arose. In return, the town allowed the university to haul all of its wood products to their grinding facility and agreed to grind it into mulch.
New special grinding blades also produce a much finer, better-quality product for the university's use. Now, discarded desks, chairs, and doors are protecting trees from lawn mowers, reducing weed growth, retaining soil moisture, and providing nutrients for campus trees and shrubs.
The cooperative program generates an estimated and annual savings of $75,000, O'Grady says.
