Mother's Day 2015 – 12 Best Apps for Moms
Every year, more and more moms are getting connected and their mobile use is skyrocketing. These tech savvy moms want their mobile devices to be equipped with the best apps to help them save time, save money and make their lives safer and easier. For Mother's Day, we compiled a list of our 12 favorite apps for iPhone and iPad and we're sharing these apps with our readers to help them get more from their mobile devices. These apps are paid, freemium and free. Click on the app's link to learn more about the pricing.
1. Evernote® – Rating 4+
Click here to find Evernote at the Apple App Store
Evernote is for note taking and it's considered a best-of-class app. It's a "freemium" application, which means you can use it for free and choose to be charged for upgrades.
Why is Evernote great for moms? Moms are busy people and can't keep everything inside their heads. With Evernote, it's super easy to take notes, organize things found on the web and make checklists. With tagging, moms can easily find the information that they've saved in Evernote. I like using the Evernote Web Clipper. It allows moms to "clip" information from the web and save articles, recipes and more in Evernote.
2. Dropbox™ – Rating 4+
Click here to find Dropbox at the Apple App Store
When I first started using Dropbox years ago, it was simply a great way to share big files with co-workers, family and friends. Dropbox has evolved over the years and it has become extremely popular for file storage in the Cloud. With Dropbox, moms can store their photos and documents and easily share them with others. 2 GB of space is available for free and more can be obtained with a fee or through other actions, such as sharing.
Why is Dropbox great for moms? It's an excellent way to back up and share family photos, receipts and other important documents. Moms can scan report cards, homework, kids artwork, etc. and save these items forever in a safe and secure place. No worries about hardware crashes. It also helps to keep the house tidy eliminating paper clutter.
3. LifeTopix™ from LightArrow, Inc. – Rating 4+
Click here to find LifeTopix at the Apple App Store
LifeTopix is an all-one-organizer for work and life. Many use it for life management or small business management. It's excellent for getting and staying organized. It's one of the best personal organization apps for families and anyone else who wants to boost their productivity.
Why is LifeTopix great for moms? It's like having a personal assistant that organizes everything. Moms can organize travel, projects and tasks, events, finances, health and fitness, home assets, bookmarks, photos and shopping — all in one place, which prevents the need to jump from app to app. The Agenda view, shown below, is super handy for knowing what's coming up today, tomorrow and in the near future at a glance.
4. Scanner Pro by Readdle – Rating 4+
Click here to find Scanner Pro at the Apple App Store
I recently discovered Scanner Pro and wow I was impressed. Scanner Pro essentially turns your iPad into a scanner, saving you loads of time.
Why is Scanner Pro great for moms? As I mentioned earlier, Dropbox is an excellent way to keep the house tidy by storing documents. With Scanner Pro, moms can easily scan all types of documents, save them in a variety of sizes (A4, letter, legal, business card, etc.), and upload these documents directly to a variety of other apps, including Dropbox and Evernote. Moms can also open these scanned documents in LifeTopix allowing them to associate the documents with projects, events and other LifeTopix items. In the example below, I've scanned a bike map which I can access directly from LifeTopix if I get lost while cycling — no need to carry a physical map in my bike pouch.
5. What to Expect – Rating 4+
Click here to find "What to Expect" at the Apple App Store
Just about everyone who's expecting or who's had a baby has heard of the famous book "What to Expect When You're Expecting." This app is based on the famous book. It's basically a roadmap for your pregnancy on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.
Why is "What to Expect" great for moms? This app is especially valuable for first time moms. It offers practical advice, tips, articles, videos and message boards. It also helps moms communicate information with their spouse or partner, which is fun and helpful during pregnancy.
6. Finding Rover – Rating 3+
Click here to find Finding Rover at the Apple App Store
Finding Rover uses a new facial recognition technology to make finding dogs easy through a community of users. For example, you take a photo of your pet and upload it to the app. Someone finds your beloved pooch and snaps a photo. Voila! Your pup's face is matched and found! And did I mention the app is free?
Why is "Finding Rover" great for moms? Every parent knows that losing a beloved pet is heartbreaking for the entire family. Fortunately Finding Rover has come to the rescue.
7. OverDrive – Rating 4+
Click here to find OverDrive at the Apple App Store
As a leading distributor of eBooks, OverDrive offers eBooks, audiobooks and streaming video from local libraries. In fact, there's a network of over 30,000 libraries worldwide that offers titles from OverDrive.
Why is OverDrive great for moms? Many moms like to relax with a good book, but it's hard to find time to get to the library. In this situation, OverDrive is a perfect solution. Also, everyone knows that reading is the cornerstone of learning. OverDrive offers many titles for kids and it's a great way to quickly introduce new books to inquisitive children.
8. Etsy – Rating 4+
Click here to find Etsy at the Apple App Store
Etsy is a new way to shop. Everything found on Etsy is created or curated by people running independent businesses. Essentially, if you want to find something different and unique, Etsy is the place to find it.
Why is Etsy great for moms? I think most moms would agree that they love shopping on Etsy because of the extraordinary things they can find. It also allows them to support independent businesses. And moms with an entrepreneurial spirit can create their own businesses while taking care of kids at home. In fact, Fast Company reported that Alicia Shaffer's business named ThreeBirdNest makes $80,000 monthly!
9. Calm – Rating 4+
Click here to find Calm at the Apple App Store
Calm is an app for meditation, sleep, relaxation and focus. It helps users learn mindfulness meditation and includes seven guided meditation sessions from 2 to 30 minutes.
Why is the Calm app great for moms? Moms live in a busy world and they don't have a lot of time to relax and focus on the present moment. When stress takes over, it can take a toll on physical health. Meditation can improve sleep, treat heart issues, relieve chronic pain, lower blood pressure and improve insulin resistance.
10. RetailMeNot – Rating 4+
Click here to find RetailMeNot at the Apple App Store
RetailMeNot is an app for saving money and who doesn't like saving money? This app provides deals (online and nearby) and allows its users to view these deals by category. "Trending" deals are also provided so users can find the most popular discounts.
Why is RetailMeNot great for moms? It's an excellent app for saving money and no coupon clipping is required. Moms can just show the retail clerk the barcode on their iPhone or iPad and be on their way!
11. Skype – Rating 3+
Click here to find Skype at the Apple App Store
Skype is a service that features video calling, voice calling, instant messaging and file sharing. It's a Microsoft product that was purchased from Ebay in 2011. Skype is similar to FaceTime and Google Hangouts, but it provides some advantages for those who want to video or voice chat with people who use a variety of devices and software. For example, with Hangouts, users are required to set up Google + accounts. With FaceTime, users are required to own Apple devices. Consequently, if you want to video chat with Grandma in Poughkeepsie who's still using Windows 7 and isn't keen on social networks, you're in luck if you're using Skype.
Why is Skype great for moms? Nothing replaces face-to-face communication, but video chatting is the next best thing. These days, many families are spread around the country and even around the world. If you can't be with your mom this Mother's Day, consider helping her set up Skype on her computer or smartphone. This way, you can have video chats regularly — not matter what technology she's using.
12. NextDoor – Rating 4+
Click here to find NextDoor at the Apple App Store
NextDoor is a free private social network for neighborhoods. According to their website, over 60,000 neighborhoods across the U.S. are now using NextDoor. When you sign up and open the NextDoor app, you're presented with a variety of happenings in your neighborhood. It provides classifieds, crime alerts, lost and found and general information such as social events, traffic alerts, HOA meetings and news around your city.
Why is NextDoor great for moms? These days, moms are so busy it's challenging to stay in the loop, especially if they work outside the home. NextDoor is it has become the new "Neighborhood Watch." If anything suspicious or unusual is happening, parents know instantly through the optional notifications. It's also a great way to sell, trade and purchase used items — it feels much more safe than using Craiglist.

The craft of teaching: a guide to mastering the professor's art
Jossey-Bass, Feb 18, 1994 - Business & Economics - 272 pages
An immensely valuable book for young college teachers... and it has much to say to teachers of all levels and ages.
Eble's book dispenses wisdom in the form of practical advice to both beginning and seasoned professors. He believes that people can learn to be better teachers through the examination and 'unbundling' of the craft itself.

In a brief but emotional reception inside the office of Mayor Walt Maddox, current and former city officials gathered Tuesday to bid farewell to the four outgoing Tuscaloosa City Council members.
In a brief but emotional reception inside the office of Mayor Walt Maddox, current and former city officials gathered Tuesday to bid farewell to the four outgoing Tuscaloosa City Council members.
"It is emotional," Maddox said. "We learned together. We've gone through tragedies together.
"I think when people look back on this history of this city, they will look very favorably upon these past eight years."
As he did during an orientation dinner the night before, Maddox named off a series of accomplishments that Councilmen Bobby Howard, Lee Garrison, Bob Lundell and William Tinker helped guide the city through during their respective past two terms.
These included the response to the April 27, 2011, tornado, the installation of the pre-K initiative, the implementation of the 311 non-emergency City Hall hotline, the development along the Black Warrior River (including the Riverwalk, Tuscaloosa Amphitheater and the Tuscaloosa River Market), the Noah's Ark stormwater drainage program, citywide recycling and the luring of the Blue Angels for two air shows.
"That just touches on the scope and depth of the work they've done for their city," Maddox said. "Not many people put their name on a ballot, and not many people will know what it's like to be faced with a decision that you know will make everyone angry.
"I always felt they tried to do the right thing for the city of Tuscaloosa."
Maddox presented the outgoing council members with a proclamation honoring their years of service during Tuesday night's council meeting, and each of them received a standing ovation, although Tinker was not in attendance.
"It was an honor working with all of them," Howard said. "I've never seen the level of professionalism as I have with the city since I left the Marine Corps."
Lundell reiterated his commitment to serve the existing council in any way.
Tuesday night marked the last council meeting for these four officials.
Next week, they will be replaced by District 1 Councilman-elect Burrell G. Odom, District 4 Councilman-elect Matt Calderone, District 6 Councilman-elect Eddie Pugh and District 7 Councilwoman-elect Sonya Mc-Kinstry, all of whom will take their respective oaths of office at the city's inauguration ceremony on Monday.

I have found a few who could not tell with certainty their parent's names [!]--quite a number who could not give birth, dates, or marriage dates of their parents. A larger number who stumble at their grandparents, and a multitude totally ignorant of ancestry further back. [You know who you are.]
This seems pitiful when contrasted with the expense, study and labor used by some to secure and record the ancestry of their horses, cattle, sheep, dogs, cats, etc. I have heard these persons rattle off the ancestry of these animals, when, if life depended upon it, they could not name their grandparents.
Such an exhibition is indeed pitiable.
"Indeed" indeed. And perhaps a little of the Lowell hyperbole has found its way to me. It certainly seems that personality traits, if you will, rather than just looks and other genetic data, do go from generation to generation. Researching my family, there are certain motifs that recur which I find in myself, although I did not inherit--to pick just two--religious mania or a desire to go prospecting....
But I do have a love of dogs, so perhaps it seems likely to have come from some one or more of my ancestors. But whom? And how could I find out? For although Mr Lowell, above, appears to be discussing purebreds, whose heritage indeed can be well-documented (although the American Kennel Club itself dates from only 1884, a mere few generations of human-time, although Dog knows how long in "dog years..."), what about our beloved mutts?
To double back a bit, when I approach each of these bloggeries (a portmanteau of blog and vagary I just coined), I begin with a person or theme in mind. This time: our canine companions. Check!
Next, I riffle through Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass (1856 edition) for a suitable quotation to use as the title of the post. Now Walt loved his animals nearly as much as his fellow man: "The sharp-hoof'd moose of the north, the cat on the house-sill, the chickadee, the prairie dog...." From mastodon to pismire, they're all here. This is a man who does "not call the tortoise unworthy because she is not something else." Yet in all of his work's thousand-plus lines, there is not one mention of a dog. Well, strictly speaking, there is one, in the tenth poem: "Falling asleep on the gather'd leaves with my dog and gun by my side." One of my self-created rules, however, is that I only use one excerpt from each poem, and I already have used a line from number ten on a previous post. Hence the near dada-esque header for this post. And how fortunate I am not to be descend'd from Whitman, from whom I might have acquir'd the habit of the dropp'd final "e."
Anyway. It seems Whitman had a dog, although biographers cannot say for certain. Biographers do tell us that a housekeeper, Mary Oakes Davis, moved in with the bed-ridden Whitman in 1885, bringing with her a dog, cat, two turtledoves, and other animals, but the dog's name is unrecorded. Which leads me back to my point: that however much they are considered part of the family, pets are not well-documented. (Although just today there was an article in the paper about a well-known casket company that is branching out to make pet urns for your four-legged loved ones, and one can find several websites devoted to the dog cemeteries of Paris). I have yet to see a pet on a family tree; they do not appear in any of the usual genealogical documents (except perhaps in the possibly apocryphal wills of elderly ladies who leave their millions to their cats, but no such feline beneficiary exists in my family, at least).
The closest sources I have found are the U S Federal Non-Population Schedules for Agriculture, but even those include only livestock rather than pets.
|An excerpt from the 1850 Schedule 4 Census.
On line 5 of the example above is a maternal fourth great-grandfather: John Wallace Cherry (27 May 1788 - 10 Feb 1857). Although somewhat modest in acreage compared to his neighbors, he seemed to be doing fairly well if we look at the cash value. Moving across the columns, we can see that he had four horses, five heads of cattle, thirteen sheep, and three swine, before moving onto the agricultural items. Yet there is no evidence of a Fido or Tabby....
We can learn a great deal about Cherry and his (human) family. He was born in Londonderry, New Hampshire, the sixth of eleven children. The Cherry family, including young John Wallace, moved to Oneida County, New York, in the early 1800s. We know he married in 1808, and fought in the War of 1812.
Around 1840, Cherry and his wife, Clarissa Adams (31 Jan 1791 - 7 Feb 1872) along with their eleven children, moved to Marysville, Union, Ohio. We can surmise that he was a patriotic man: not only the son of a Revolutionary War captain himself, among his sons are the jingoistically named George Washington Cherry (10 Sep 1809 - 17 Jan 1890) and John Adams Cherry (23 Apr 1816 - 28 Aug 1817). The family zeal for liberty continued: his son Samuel Alonzo Cherry (16 Dec 1811 - 27 Apr 1897) was involved with the Underground Railroad, his home being a "station" in Marysville.
In fact, we know a great deal about all of John Wallace Cherry's children: Charles Henry Cherry (7 Jun 1837 - 16 Mar 1908) died after a three-day bout with pneumonia; the aforementioned George was a postmaster (one of those recurring family motifs I mentioned); William Hopkins Cherry (8 Oct 1823 - 23 Jun 1864) was killed in the Civil War.... Yet not a thing about the no-doubt beloved Cherry pets.
But wait! There are those thirteen sheep.... And where there are sheep, it seems only natural there must be a dog to herd and protect them. I want to call him Towser. I can see him now, racing around those forty-three acres, playing fetch with the Cherry young'uns, guarding the thirteen sheep....
Yet rather than share a fictional biography of the imagined (or --as I'm going to believe--only undocumented) Towser, I will share the history of a genuine canine family member, our Maisie.
We adopted Maisie for my
|Baby Maisie.
Of course, as we later learned from our vet, shelters have good intentions, but not the best eye for distinguishing between families (not unlike some genealogists). As she said: "The big ones are always 'lab mix,' the little ones 'dachshund mix' and the furry ones 'terrier mix.''' Our "terrier mix" puppy ended up being mostly bearded collie and weighs in at over sixty pounds. Toto she ain't.
Like others of her (almost) breed, she has the bearded collie's distinctive run, and instinctive desire to herd other animals, as we learned the hard way on an early trip to the dog park.
|Go, dog, go.
Maisie was born 10 Jun 2001, and as I said, she was meant as my present for my birthday that September. After choosing her, we had to pick her up a few days later, so that she could be checked by the vet and spayed, a condition of the shelter with which we were happy to comply. As it turned out, her pick-up day was September 11th. The September 11th. Like everyone else that horrible day, we were so caught up in the news that we completely forgot about our new charge. Around eleven a.m., the vet's office called to remind us, asking if we were coming in, so that the employees could go home to be with their families. We zoomed out and brought dear Maisie home. It was cheering to have something so loving and alive to hold while we watched the developments of that terrible day. My patriotism being nearly as evolved as my ancestor's, we still try to find joy on the anniversary of the attacks by celebrating "Maisie Day," and our Miss Mu, as we have somehow come to call her.
|The many moods of Maisie-mu.
Beyond being the catalyst for her own holiday, Maisie also was the instigator of a new business venture. Looking at various commercial dog treats, we found they were either costly, unhealthy, or most often both. My other half being a crafty sort, he began trying out different recipes for dog treats, finally landing on a variety of wholesome flavors our dogs (Rosie and Coco being added to the menagerie in the meantime) loved. We shared the treats with friends' and neighbors' companions, who kept suggesting (the F and N, not the companions, although I'm sure they would have if they could) that we start a dog treat business. Which we did (plug, plug): MaiRo & Co Dog Treat Bakery, link to which conveniently located to your right.
|From left: Rosie, Maisie, and Coco.
As our business grew (we've been featured in Pup Culture magazine, and have four-legged clients from California to New York; as I write this, in fact, I am sitting at the MaiRo & Co Dog Treat Bakery booth at a benefit for the Greenhills Fire Department), we began to grow more of our own ingredients. Not usually found among the trendy (cf. genealogy), I have somehow joined the ranks of urban farmer. In fact, a couple years back we even began to raise chickens to provide fresh eggs. Which reminds me that I did not see chickens on that Agricultural Census either....
All this talk of farming and patriotism at last brings me back to my ostensible human subject, John Wallace Cherry, and inherited family traits. Thanks, "Grandpa John," for the love of dogs!

And Rest in Peace, Towser, wherever you are.

This particular assembly was planned as part of observances of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, according to local coverage, and the theme had its roots in a King speech about "time to break the silence:"
Carrillo students for years have prepared a special assembly honoring King's birthday, built around the theme of an annual countywide oratorical contest to be held at 5 p.m. Sunday at Santa Rosa High. This year's theme is "Time to break silence...about things that matter," based on a 1967 speech in which King embraced a clerical movement to speak against the Vietnam War. The 75-minute Carrillo assembly was presented to students six times Thursday and Friday and was scheduled for a public airing Friday night for parents.Kearney spoke for just over eight minutes, captured on video that's now been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, and covered and commented on by thousands. Here's what you can learn from this famous speech:
- Be bold: Instead of being hesitant or too respectful as a speaker, Kearney goes for a bold disclosure and topic, albeit one in keeping with the assembly's theme. Talk about public speaking courage, knowing that her admission might lose her friends as well as listeners. And here, bold doesn't mean angry or flamboyant or out of place with the nature of the assembly. You can speak with courage and meaning without fireworks.
- Be personal: I know plenty of speakers more senior and experienced who couldn't do eight minutes on any topic without notes or slides-as-cue-cards. But because she's telling an intensely personal story, one she's thought about over and over, Kearney needs no notes. Speaking personally doesn't work in every situation, but here, it allows her to be extemporaneous and in control.
- Difficult stories make the most compelling content: Part of finding your voice as a speaker involves telling difficult-for-you stories. That's emotionally tough for the speaker, but yields great results in dramatic impact and in audience reaction--and makes your speech memorable.
Here's Kearney's speech in full:
And here's a recording of the Martin Luther King, Jr. speech that inspired the day of oratory and gave Kearney the opening to break her own silence:

Thank you for your interest in this program. We should be contacting you shortly.
As criminal defense attorneys and civil attorneys encountered law-enforcement examiners, the need for qualified civilian forensic computer examiners grew. Currently, there's a huge demand for certified, qualified forensic computer examiners. Some trained examiners have started their own businesses, some work for large companies, such as Deloitte and Touche, and others work for law-enforcement agencies.
This comprehensive online course prepares you for a career in this emerging field. You'll learn not only to thoroughly examine digital media, but also to clearly document, control, prepare, and present examination results that will stand up in a court of law. You'll be able to identify where and how data is stored and how to recover and interpret data and draw appropriate conclusions based on the data. Education on the ethics of computer forensics is also included. This course is hands-on and emphasizes learning by doing. The primary certification for civilian forensic computer examiners is the Certified Computer Examiner (CCE) certification. The Forensic Computer Examiner Online Training course is an authorized ISFCE (International Society of Forensic Computer Examiners) training course that will thoroughly prepare you to take the CCE certification exam.
Hardware Requirements: This course must be taken on a PC device. A Mac OS is not compatible
Software Requirements:
Other: Email capabilities and access to a personal email account.
Recommended Configuration:
To enroll in this course, you'll need to have basic computer skills, including the ability to work outside the Windows GUI interface. This is because forensic examiners often need data that can't easily be accessed from within Windows. Being comfortable working within the DOS environment will be very helpful in this field.
A good measure of your readiness for this program is knowing that you can successfully complete the A+ certification through CompTIA. Note that the certification is by no means a prerequisite. However, the basic knowledge needed for success in this program typically requires that you have the A+ level of experience.
A forensic computer examiner will be required to work with the hardware of a computer on many occasions, so you'll need to have the ability or desire to remove and replace hard-disk drives from computers and change jumper settings. These topics are briefly covered within our program, but you should have these skills prior to enrolling.
To work in this field, you must not have a criminal record. This includes any felony conviction where the individual could have received a sentence of one or more years of imprisonment. This also includes any criminal history of sexually related offenses, as many digital examinations include these topics, and an examiner with this type of history could be easily discredited.
Note: If you plan to pursue the Certified Computer Examiner (CCE) credential, you must have attended a program through an ISFCE Authorized Training Center (such as this one), have documented experience in forensic computer examinations, OR be able to produce a well-documented self-study.

Gov. Rick Perry said Wednesday it's too early to draw a line in the sand about what lawmakers need to do on issues, including tax relief, if they want to keep him from calling a special session when the regular session ends May 27.
Then he kind of did it anyway.
Perry – who early in the session called for $1.8 billion of tax relief, and outlined a plan in April for $1.6 billion in franchise-tax breaks – had this to say when asked whether he has to see the higher number before he's willing to sign a state budget:
"It's a little early to be drawing that line in the sand. It should be no surprise that if folks want to go home at the end of this legislative session, send me $1.8 billion worth of tax relief, send me a balanced budget that has no fees – increases for transportation— and $2 billion of infrastructure for water. And everybody can go home and enjoy their summer "
The $667 million worth of tax relief given preliminary approval Tuesday by the House, Perry said, means that, "They're a third of the way there."
Perry, speaking with reporters after helping launch the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics from the South steps of the Texas Capitol, also was asked about President Obama's Thursday visit, which is seen partly as a way to help Democratic efforts here.
Perry said that Texas is a good place to study the success of GOP policies on areas including taxes and regulation, again making a point about the importance of water infrastructure and more tax relief to help keep Texas competitive.
"Common sense tells you, if you are going to come to the state of Texas, and point us out as a model, you are going to have to be for Republican policies," Perry said.
Asked if he plans to meet with the president, Perry said, "I'm going to meet him on the tarmac, at least. I don't know whether we're going to have an opportunity more than that, but we'll be here to welcome him to the state."
