Survivor: The Amazon is the sixth season of the American CBS competitive reality television series Survivor. The season was filmed from November 11, 2002 through December 15, 2002 in the Amazon and premiered on February 13, 2003. Hosted by Jeff Probst, it consisted of the usual 39 days of gameplay with 16 competitors.
For the first time ever, the initial tribes were divided by sex. The two initial tribes were the all-female Jaburu (named for a native stork) and the all-male Tambaqui (a native fish). The season is noted for having the first reality show contestant with a disability, the hearing impaired Christy Smith. They were eventually merged into the Jacaré (Portuguese for "alligator") tribe when ten contestants remained. The winner, swimsuit model Jenna Morasca, was named Sole Survivor after defeating Matthew von Ertfelda by a jury vote of 6-1.
The complete season was released on DVD exclusively through Amazon on November 22, 2011.
A challenge during the season in which Jenna Morasca and Heidi Strobel removed their clothing ultimately led to a cover shot and nude pictorial in a Playboy spread.[1]
Morasca and Rob Cesternino later competed in Survivor: All-Stars, placing 16th and 15th, respectively. Morasca quit the game to return to the U.S. and be with her mother, who was dying of cancer; she died eight days after Morasca left the game. In 2011, Morasca appeared on The Amazing Race 19 with boyfriend and fellow All Star Survivor Ethan Zohn, placing 10th in a double elimination episode.
The season began with the contestants divided into tribes split by gender for the first time. The men's tribe, Tambaqui, wearing blue, was quick to get their camp life squared away, building shelter, and alliances were quickly formed. The women's tribe, Jaburu, wearing yellow, experienced quarreling within their tribe, and spent almost the entire first week without a shelter. On Tambaqui, an alliance of four was formed, led by Roger, which included Butch, Alex, and Dave. However, Rob quickly emerged as an arbiter between Roger's alliance and the outliers of the tribe, solidifying allegiances with both. On Jaburu, the younger women, Heidi, Jenna, and Shawna quickly began to coalesce, pulling in Deena and Christy to control the voting on Jaburu.
On Day 13, Dave and Jenna traveled to an isolated location to act as tribal ambassadors. Jenna gave Dave crucial information about Jaburu, giving Dave an advantage when, the next day, they were forced to choose new tribes, equally distributing the men and the women. Rob, Matthew and Alex were sent to Jaburu while Heidi, Jeanne and Christy were sent to Tambaqui. At Tambaqui, Heidi decided to align with the men to vote off Jeanne. At Jaburu, the men and women joined forces to vote off an untrustworthy Shawna. Deena and Rob created an alliance and when the merge occurred, they aligned with Alex, Matthew and the rest of the women. At the merge, Deena and Rob's alliance controlled the votes against sexist Roger and physical and mental threat Dave. leaving Butch as the last player remaining outside of Rob and Deena's alliance.
Convinced she had control over the game, Deena decided to spare Butch in order to vote out Alex for being a social and physical threat. The women quickly informed Alex of Deena's betrayal and he was able to convince Heidi, Jenna and the men to eliminate Deena at the next Tribal Council. With Deena gone, Alex was convinced he was solid in an alliance of four with Jenna, Heidi, and Rob. However, he revealed to Rob that his plan was to vote him out at the final four to avoid a tie with Heidi and Jenna. Rob used this information to form a counter-alliance with Matthew, Butch, and Christy, where they voted out Alex. With three men and three women remaining, Christy became the swing vote but was voted out after failing to commit to either side. The next Tribal Council, the men stuck together and voted off Heidi, perceived to be the more physical of the two women left.
At the Final Four, Jenna, the final woman remaining, won immunity, forcing the men to prematurely turn on themselves. Faced with either avenging Alex and Heidi by voting off Rob or getting rid of an undeserving Butch, she ultimately sided with Matthew and Rob to vote off Butch. Jenna continued her winning streak and won immunity again, giving her the sole vote at the next Tribal Council. She ultimately voted off Rob due to his strong strategic gameplay. Facing the jury, Matthew was praised for his survival skills and work ethic, but he was criticized for hypocrisy and lack of strategic gameplay for the majority of the game. On the other hand, Jenna was criticized for her lack of work ethic and even wanting to quit a few days earlier. However, as a result of having better relationships with people on the jury, and being seen as playing the game more strategically from the beginning, Jenna was voted to become the Sole Survivor in a vote of 6-1.
As the sixteen castaways arrived deep in the Amazon jungle, Jeff shocked the castaways when he divided the castaways into a tribe of men, Tambaqui, and a tribe of women, Jaburu. He gave the castaways their buffs and maps to their respective camps. As Tambaqui arrived at their camp, they had a quick meeting and questioned the women's survival skills. When Jaburu arrived at their camp, Christy informed her tribemates that she is deaf. Meanwhile at Tambaqui, Roger became their leader and became frustrated with Daniel and Ryan's work ethic.
At the immunity challenge, Tambaqui took an early lead, however Jaburu pulled ahead to win the challenge when Daniel and Ryan had trouble with the balance beam, sending the men to Tribal Council. As Tambaqui returning to camp without immunity, they thought their overconfidence had caused them to lose the challenge. Knowing he was on the chopping block for struggling in the challenge, Ryan formed an alliance to oust Roger, the tribes' oldest and most vocal player. In the end, Ryan's plan failed, and he was sent home.[2]
With the need to strengthen their shelter and assign a leader, the Jaburu tribe woke up miserable. Meanwhile, Tambaqui enjoyed a breakfast of manioc flour and set out on a fishing expedition, only to rained on by a heavy rainstorm. Meanwhile, with their faulty shelter, Jaburu struggled to maintain their fire in the rainstorm.
At the reward challenge, Joanna was Jaburu's caller and Butch was Tambaqui's caller. Following Joanna's instructions, Jaburu was able to win their second consecutive challenge. Tambaqui got frustrated after they lost their second challenge in a row. After winning fishing bait, Jeanne set out to catch fish for her hungry tribe. Meanwhile, Joanna expressed her dislike for the immunity idol because she felt it was against the Ten Commandments. Christy and Joanna argued over Joanna's beliefs. Suspicion arose at Jaburu when a granola bar was found at the bottom of their storage container. Despite being unclaimed, Janet was blamed for smuggling the granola bar. The tribe agreed to throw the granola bar in the fire.
Immunity was won by Tambaqui. After losing immunity, Christy expressed that she felt her tribe was lazy, causing some friction within Jaburu. At Tribal Council, Janet was targeted for being the weakest, and was blamed for smuggling the granola, and was sent home.[3]
As rain poured over Tambaqui, the men worked on their daily chores. Roger got frustrated with Daniel's hesitation to help with the water. However, Matthew helped Daniel calm his nerves and the two bonded.
Reward was won by Jaburu. While Jaburu bathed with their newly acquired personal hygiene products, the younger women bathed separately from the older women. Meanwhile at Tambaqui, Matthew and Dave discussed whether to eliminate Daniel or Roger. At Jaburu, Deena became the tribe's leader. With Deena's leadership, Jaburu managed to repair the roof of their shelter, boil five pots of water, and caught fish to give them nutrition for the next challenge.
At the immunity challenge, Tambaqui fell behind when they failed to saw through the rope attaching the plank of wood properly, allowing Jaburu to pull ahead and win immunity. Knowing he was on the chopping block, Daniel attempted to form an alliance with Alex and Rob in order to oust Roger. Despite his attempts to target Roger, the tribe voted out their weakest link, Daniel.[4]
At Jaburu, Jeanne and Joanna were doing most of the work. While Tambaqui struggled to catch fish, Joanna caught a fish for Jaburu. At Jaburu, a rift between the younger women and the older women formed. Knowing they were vulnerable, Heidi, Jenna and Shawna lobbied Deena to join their alliance. Feeling she could manipulate the younger women more easily, Deena agreed to align with Heidi, Jenna and Shawna. Meanwhile at Tambaqui, Matthew became the tribe's provider.
At the reward challenge, Jaburu took an early lead, however Tambaqui managed to pull ahead and win reward. After her tribe lost the challenge, Shawna had grown extremely tired and lost motivation. Meanwhile, Tambaqui enjoyed their Coca Cola and a large fish that Matthew had caught.
At the immunity challenge, Tambaqui had caught more fish than Jaburu and won their second challenge in a row. After returning to camp, Shawna was still not feeling well and threatened to break her alliance. Deena, Heidi and Jenna pulled Christy into their alliance in case Shawna broke their alliance. In the end, Shawna did not vote with her alliance. However, with Christy's help, they managed to send Joanna home.[5]
With Joanna gone, Deena felt she had more leadership than before. Meanwhile, Shawna was ready to give up after her alliance voted against her wishes kept her in the game. Meanwhile at Tambaqui, Alex accidentally sliced his eyebrow as he was cutting firewood. Alex hurried to notify his tribemates and was bandaged up by the medical team. Both tribes received Tree Mail instructing them to send their youngest member, Dave from Tambaqui and Jenna from Jaburu, on a journey. Dave and Jenna met Jeff at a luxury Amazon retreat. Jeff announced that they were going to have a "Get to Know You". Dave listened to the information that Jenna willingly provided about her tribe. She described her friendship with Heidi. As the two awoke the next morning, they found a breakfast waiting for them. As they enjoyed their breakfast, Jeff arrived to announce a twist. Jeff dropped nameplates on the table, each with the name of a castaway. He instructed the two to pick new tribes and told them to alternate between genders. Being aware of Heidi and Jenna's friendship, Dave chose Heidi for his tribe first in order to separate the two women. Once they finished, the new Jaburu tribe consisted of Alex, Deena, Jenna, Matthew, Rob and Shawna. The new Tambaqui tribe consisted of Butch, Christy, Dave, Heidi, Jeanne, and Roger. After the two paddled to their camps, they announced the switch to their old tribes. The new members of both tribes were welcomed with opened arms. After Christy revealed her deafness to the men, they made an effort to include Christy in all conversations, and used the lantern to help her read lips at night. Meanwhile at Jaburu, Shawna seemed to overcome her fatigue.
Immunity was won by Jaburu. After Tambaqui returned to camp, the women planned to target Butch and cause a tie between the men and the women. However, Dave lobbied Heidi to vote with the men, leading Heidi to become the swing vote. In the end, Dave's lobbying proved effective, and Jeanne was sent home.[6]
At Jaburu, Shawna had a romantic interest in Alex.
At the reward challenge, it came down to Christy and Jenna to break a tie. Christy outlasted Jenna, winning reward for Tambaqui. With Deena's authority at Jaburu diminishing, she formed an alliance with Rob. Rob then pulled Matthew into their alliance.
At the immunity challenge, it was neck and neck until Tambaqui tore off a large piece of meat, winning immunity. After Jaburu returned to camp, Alex and Shawna revealed that they would be voting for Matthew. However Rob had just formed an alliance with Matthew, and chose to target Shawna with Deena, Jenna and Matthew. In the end, Rob's plan came into fruition and Shawna was sent home.[7]
Jaburu agreed to form a voting block once the tribes merge. As the tribes read their Tree Mail, they found a key that will unlock a mysterious box at their camps. They were instructed to pack up their camp and paddle to a spot where they would meet Jeff. Once the castaways arrived, Jeff announced the merge and distributed new red buffs. Jeff then sent the castaways to a new camp along the river. As the castaways enjoyed their merge feast, they named the new tribe "Jacaré", Portuguese for alligator. While enjoying the feast, Roger got upset when his tribe used their ice to cool their beer instead of using it to preserve their food. Roger caused tension among the tribe as he gave orders to his tribemates. As the castaways built their shelter, Deena discussed voting out Roger with Heidi and Jenna. Roger planned to pick off the four women one by one. As morning came, Roger continued to annoy his tribemates by chopping wood too early. Deena discussed her plan to eliminate Roger with Rob, who agreed.
At the immunity challenge, Heidi and Jenna stripped naked in exchange for peanut butter and chocolate. It came down to Christy and Deena, and the outcome would be decided using a game of rock-paper-scissors. Christy lost, giving immunity to Deena. At Tribal Council, Deena's plan came into fruition, and Roger was voted out.[8]
After returning from Tribal Council, Dave felt vulnerable after his ally Roger was eliminated. Dave attempted to secure his position in the tribe by helping Butch construct a dock. However, Rob wasn't impressed and felt that Dave was a showoff. Meanwhile, Matthew worried his tribe as he kept on sharpening the machete for an hour at a time.
The team of Alex, Dave and Deena won the first round of the reward challenge, with Dave winning the final round. Dave chose Deena to join him on the reward. As Dave and Deena enjoyed their reward, Dave lobbied Deena to keep him in the game. Deena agreed to talk to her alliance about keeping him in the game.
At the immunity challenge, it came down to Heidi and Jenna. Jenna answered the final question correctly, winning immunity. After returning to camp, Matthew continued to irk his tribemates with his behavior. Despite Matthew's behavior, Dave was perceived as a physical threat, and he was voted out, becoming the first member of the jury.[9]
The castaways received Tree Mail, along with blow guns, spears, bows, and arrows. They were instructed to practice for the reward challenge.
At the reward challenge, it came down to Alex and Matthew. Alex shot closest to the center, winning reward. He chose Jenna to join him on the reward. While Alex and Jenna enjoyed their reward, Deena plotted to oust Alex as she felt he was a physical threat. Meanwhile, Butch accidentally caught a piranha while fishing, and got bitten in the finger. When Alex and Jenna returned to camp, Heidi revealed Deena's plan to Jenna. Jenna then told Alex that Deena was targeting him for elimination.
The immunity challenge came down to Deena and Matthew. Matthew swallowed a live beetle larva whole first, winning immunity. Unaware that Heidi had already revealed Deena's plan, Deena lobbied Jenna to vote for Alex at Tribal Council, upsetting Jenna. In the end, Deena's scheming cost her the game, and she was voted out, becoming the second member of the jury.[10]
Each castaway received 500 USD in their Tree Mail for a Survivor Auction. At the auction, Jeff shocked the castaways by bringing letters from home up for bids. Christy outbid Jenna, winning her letter from home. The castaways were shocked when Jeff put another letter from home up for bid. The tribe let Jenna win the second letter. After returning to camp, Jenna, whose mother was ill, was upset at Christy for outbidding her. Meanwhile, Alex revealed to Rob that he would vote him out should their alliance make it to the final four. Upset, Rob approached Matthew to oust Alex with the help of Butch and Christy. Matthew agreed to vote for Alex at Tribal Council.
At the immunity challenge, it came down to Rob and Matthew. Rob answered the final question correctly, winning immunity. Unaware of Rob's plot against Alex, the alliance of Heidi, Jenna and Alex decided to target Matthew, who they saw as a physical threat. At Tribal Council, Rob's plan came into fruition, and Alex was voted out, becoming the third member of the jury.[11]
Heidi and Jenna were furious at Rob for turning against Alex at Tribal Council. While the men were out working, Heidi and Jenna lobbied Christy to align with them in order to oust one of the men.
Matthew won the reward challenge, and was given the chance to sacrifice the visit from his mother to let everyone else reunite with their loved ones. Matthew chose to sacrifice the visit from his mother. Not wanting Matthew's act to go unrewarded, Jeff allowed Matthew to reunite with his mother and enjoy the reward at the village. As the five other castaways returned to camp, Rob attempted to make amends with Heidi and Jenna. He brought up voting out Matthew as a threat and taking Jenna to the final two. However, Jenna still didn't trust Rob, and she told the tribe of his plans.
Immunity was won by Jenna. After returning to camp, Rob lobbied Christy, the swing vote, to vote out Heidi. Christy told Rob that her decision was still up in the air. However, Rob realigned himself with Heidi and Jenna to target Christy, who was a threat to ruin the Heidi-Jenna alliance. At Tribal Council, Jenna gave up immunity for Heidi. Rob's plan came into fruition, and Christy was voted out, becoming the fourth member of the jury.[12]
Jenna was feeling the effects of the harsh living conditions. Meanwhile, Rob planned on voting out Heidi due to her being a physical threat and told her about his plan to be honest with the girls. Butch, with Rob's help, continued to collect "firewood," despite the large amount of wood around camp, causing Rob and Jenna to question his sanity.
Matthew won the reward challenge, and chose Rob to join him on the barbecue. As the remaining castaways returned to camp, a fire had burned much of their camp, burning many of the castaways' clothes and personal belongings. Once Matthew and Rob returned from their reward, the men worked to rebuild the camp. Heidi and Jenna, knowing the men planned to vote them out, did not help as they felt it would make the men's lives easier.
Immunity was won by Matthew. As the castaways returned to camp, Jenna broke down in tears, wanting out of the game. Knowing she was on the chopping block, Heidi lobbied to vote out Jenna at Tribal Council due to the pain she was in. In the end, the men felt that Heidi was more of a threat than Jenna, and she was voted out, becoming the fifth member of the jury.[13]
After returning from Tribal Council, the final four celebrated making it that far. Meanwhile, the men planned to vote out Jenna next.
The men's plan to eliminate Jenna was thwarted after she won the challenge, keeping her safe from the vote. After returning to camp, Matthew and Rob discussed voting out Butch. Later on, Matthew formed a secret alliance with Jenna to take her to the final two. Although Jenna was interested in siding with Butch, the tribe unanimously voted him out, sending him to the jury 3-1.
After eating breakfast, the final three castaways were shocked to find a bathroom scale in their Tree Mail. The three castaways each stepped on the scale and discovered how much weight they had lost over 38 days. Later on, Jeff arrived at the Jacaré camp and instructed the castaways to board a seaplane, where they would get an aerial view of the Amazon. Once finished, they were instructed to paddle to Tribal Council, where they would compete in the final immunity challenge.
During their final day at the Amazon, Jenna and Matthew reminisced about their eliminated tribemates and wrote each castaway's name on their supply crate. Matthew, wanting to add closure to their experience, brought the tribe's boat to shore and placed the camp artifacts inside. Matthew then set the contents on fire and sent the boat down the river.
At the final Tribal Council, Jenna stated to the jury members that they knew who she was. Matthew stated that he was dedicated to the tribe, that he was a serious competitor, and that he played with honor and integrity. Butch asked Jenna and Matthew if they had lied to or deceived any of their tribemates. Jenna responded by claiming she had lied to Deena, who she felt had betrayed their alliance. Matthew claimed that he had lied to Alex and Roger in order to save himself. Rob asked the final two castaways why the other finalist didn't deserve to be sitting next to them. Matthew responded by saying that Jenna did not contribute much around camp and that she had the desire to quit. Jenna responded by saying that Matthew hadn't been playing the game, didn't need the money, and that it was "just another adventure on his list of things to do". Alex stated to the finalists that the words "honesty" and "integrity" didn't mean anything to him anymore. He asks them about their biggest regret. Jenna says it was putting trust in untrustworthy people. Matthew says it was his decision to support Ryan at the first vote.
Next up was Heidi, who asked the finalists whether they felt there was someone else more deserving of being in their position. Both Jenna and Matthew answered Rob. Deena was concerned about Jenna's statement that Matthew didn't need the money, and wonders if they should vote on need and not gameplay. Jenna responded that if she were on the jury, she would vote on need, but understands that others may feel differently. Deena then stated to Matthew that she was offended by the comment "may the best man win" he made at an earlier Tribal Council. Matthew apologized to Deena. Next up was Christy, who asked the finalists what their reactions were when they learned she was deaf. Matthew responded by claiming he thought she had a "funky accent". Christy demanded an explanation from Jenna about her comment that she, Jenna, was "handicapped because she was beautiful". Jenna claimed that she didn't remember making that comment, but says she feels others judged her as not smart or strong because she's a swimsuit model. Last up was Dave, who asked which influential leader a castaway should emulate in the game. Matthew answered Colin Powell, while Jenna chose her mother for "her fight and strength". In his closing speech, Matthew admitted that he had lied along the way, however mentioned that it was part of the game. Jenna mentioned that she had come through in the end when she needed to save herself.
Reception to Survivor: The Amazon was mostly positive with common praise being the tribe division by gender and baring colorful players such as Rob. Jeff Probst ranked The Amazon as his 10th favorite season, citing the women's alliance led by Jenna, among other factors.[15] Dalton Ross, the official Survivor columnist of Entertainment Weekly, ranked it as his 5th favorite season, calling it "probably the most unpredictable season ever."[16] In 2012 and 2013, Survivor fan site "Survivor Oz" ranked The Amazon in the top 10 greatest seasons in its annual polls ranking every season of the series; it was 9th in 2012 and 7th in 2013.[17][18] It was ranked as the 8th-best season by fan site "The Purple Rock Podcast" in 2015.[19] In the official issue of CBS Watch commemorating the 15th anniversary of Survivor, The Amazon was voted by viewers as the 8th greatest season of the series.[20] Also, in another poll for the same magazine, Rob was voted as the #3 greatest player in the series for his performance in The Amazon.[21] In 2015, when Rob himself eventually held a poll on his reality TV podcasting website, The Amazon was ranked by his viewers as the 5th-greatest season in the series; Rob himself personally ranked it as the seventh-greatest.[22]

"Apple folds bug reporting into Feedback Assistant, discontinues Bug Reporter"
It's really sad
Submitted by DMNagel on
I think in order to Report bugs like this, you will need to have a basic grasp of coding. I eventually got to the diagnostics screen but there's tons and tons of stuff, so I'm not even sure what to send. To make matters even worse, this so-called Feedback assistant only caters to developers. There doesn't seem to be a solution for an average Joe.

Picture Perfect Expression Media Image Gallery
I used Expression Design to layout and create the elements for my wedding homepage and then used Expression Web to position them on the page. After that I used Expression Web to give the page image swapping behaviors when the user moved the mouse over the titles of the page. In this final blog I will describe how I modified an existing HTML gallery in Expression Media to make up the remaining pages of the website.
I mentioned the HTML gallery in one of my first blog posts; they're really easy to produce and there are several built in templates you can use. Once Expression Media is installed, the HTML gallery can be accesses under the Make menu, HTML Gallery … When selected, Expression Media will display a dialog of options.
And there are so many options! So many, in fact, that the good people at Expression Media added the ability to save a set of options to disk.
However, if the existing templates and all of the options provided still do not exactly produce what is desired, one can create custom HTML gallery templates, and Expression Web is a great tool to use.
The standard templates are located in the Expression Media install directory under the "\en\Plug-ins\HTML Templates" directory. Each of these template directories corresponds to one of the selections in the theme dropdown list in the HTML Options dialog.
There are three files and one directory found in each template. The index.html file describes what the page that hosts the thumbnail images looks like, media.html defines the page used for the full sized images and the about.jpg image is used to give the user a basic impression of what the gallery will look like. The about.jpg image is displayed to the user in the HTML Options dialog when the associated template is selected. Finally, the assets directory contains all the images and additional files referenced in the other two .html pages.
I started the creation of my custom template by copying an existing template directory and renaming it to "Wedding." The new template is immediately available as a new theme in the HTML Options dialog and you can create galleries with it to test your changes as you go.
Using Expression Web to open the template directory as a website and examining the index.html page reveals the pattern Expression Media uses to insert data into the HTML pages, "(iView:*)." Whenever Expression Media encounters this pattern in the HTML pages in your template it will replace the pattern with the corresponding information about your gallery. For example, it will replace "(iView:Catalog)" with the Site Title in the HTML Options dialog and "(iView:Capation)" with the caption of the image in the media.html file.
Defining the meanings of all of these "iView" values is beyond the scope of this article, but by examining the existing templates and the HTML that is generated from them, their meanings can be discovered.
The index.html and media.html pages may be modified in Expression Web and any resources those pages require (images or CSS files for example) can be saved to the assets directory and referenced with a relative URL. Once you are happy with the changes you have made, save the files from Expression Web, generate the HTML gallery and publish it. One nice finishing touch would be to create an image to represent the new gallery theme and save it as about.jpg with a resolution of 200 x 120 pixels.
In the final version of my website, I actually created four different galleries, one for each category of images. I am still getting images from friends and family who were at the wedding and by creating these custom galleries I can add those new images very easily.
Lastly, I have made a more generic version of the wedding gallery available for download, feel free to use it and modify it as you see fit.

Head Lice Clinic & Treatment
Getting Rid of Lice and Eggs for Good
NitNOT Head Lice Clinic
Visit our clinic in Hemel Hempstead for a consultation and full removal of lice and eggs
NitNOT Head Lice Treatment
Buy our head lice treatment online with Amazon - next day delivery
NitNOT founder Eileen Hutchinson advises the BBC on how to treat head lice
It can be overwhelming when you find out a family member has brought home lice and nits. Until you experience the horror of head lice and nits in your own family, you never truly realise how difficult it can be to manage the infestation. That is why NitNot was started: to take the stress away from you and take over the process of eliminating all traces of lice, nits and eggs.
Who are we?
We are a head lice and egg removal service clinic based in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. We have also developed a head lice product - NitNOT Head Lice, Egg & Nit Complete Solution Treatment (200 ml) - for treating head lice at home. The head lice solution can be purchased online from our Amazon shop.
Why We Opened NitNOT Head Lice Removal Clinic Service
My name is Eileen Hutchinson. I was starting to get very frustrated with head lice in the family, and a lot poorer as a result of dealing with head lice. I spoke with friends in America, where there are hundreds of head lice clinics, and they informed me about the effectiveness of traditional method clinics.
We subsequently became passionate about offering parents an effective and affordable head lice removal service. We have studied hard and consulted with leading experts in the UK, Spain, Denmark and the USA. We have also trained with experts on the detection and removal of lice, so you can be assured that you are in the best hands.
Our clinic is discreet, and we will always endeavour to see you within twenty-four hours.
We ask that the client being treated has clean, combed hair, free of knots and free of any hair products so that we can apply our treatments successfully.
How We Can Help You With The Battle On Head Lice
Our four-step plan at NitNot positions us as one of the best head lice treatments in the market, offering only the most effective head lice treatment. We understand that each client's case of head lice is different, and therefore adapt our head lice treatment plan to maximise efficiency.
Whilst the client is being treated, we are happy to answer any questions regarding maintenance of a head-lice-free environment including techniques for prevention, facts & fiction, and product information. So, when you leave you are fully armed to fight the battle against head lice. Your family will be nit free!
We want to give you peace of mind at an affordable price. No more scratching or feeling little lice running through your hair. We are here to help.
NitNOT treats every client as an individual and give a 100% guarantee that all live eggs and lice will be killed - we are a company that you can trust. We will show you how to comb to prevent re-infestations and explain why and when to keep head lice at bay.
We are a professional and ethical lice removal service.
We DO NOT use any solvents, pesticides, perfumes or toxic chemicals in our clinic or our product. Our head lice serum treatment is pure mineral oil; it works by coating lice and eggs and cutting off their oxygen supply.
As such, they cannot become resistant.
Unlike other treatments, our serum has been scientifically proven to be kind to the scalp and not absorbed by the skin.
We offer a 100% guaranteed service - because we know it works.
'As a working mum with two daughters and no spare time, I found head lice very stressful. Until someone recommended Nitnot head lice salon – thank goodness! It was dealt with by great ladies that clearly love their job!' –
'I will be recommending you to everyone. Amazing service. We have struggled with headlice for the past few months and spent a fortune on product – that just did not work. NitNot cleared the whole family as promised. Thank you for giving me back my life xxx' –
Go to NitNot to get rid of head lice. Wish I had found you guys earlier. It would have saved me time and money. You are the best – I actually think I love you guys.' –

Have a few Kodachrome pictures you'd like to keep around in your phone or on Google Photos or iCloud? Maybe Polaroid or Fujifilm had your back way back when — or even now, you hipster.
Well, you can download Google's new PhotoScan app that can take that colored paper and scan them for high-resolution digital copies. These copies are "glare-free," as Google boasts and require much less effort and cash than a dedicated scanner.
All it takes is calibrating the your Android device or iPhone to four dots on the picture you want to scan. Presto.
The new app comes hand-in-hand with a Google Photos update that allows for Adobe Lightroom-esque adjustments to color and exposure data and for 12 extra filters.

Why Music Matters
Music, like nothing else, can reach into our lives and affect us. Music changes our mood, sharpens our thoughts; it can transport us to places we visited, help us relive memories of special moments in our lives. Young or old, it has the power to make us healthier, happier, and more connected as friends, family, and as parts of a larger community.
At CCM, we recognize music is vital to the well being and full development of children, adolescents, and adults, and therefore essential to create thoughtful, and vibrant communities. At CCM we strive to offer musical experiences to anyone who desires them.
Really. Music does all this:
Emotional Benefits
Music is a creative, positive form of expression. Learning a song and being able to sing independently is a source of pride to a preschooler. Music also gives young children another way to express themselves through activity and sound.
Social Benefits
From birth, an infant's caregivers can interact musically with their child and help social interaction. Bouncing and tickling to songs help to build the infant's attention and social awareness. Toddlers and preschoolers benefit socially from musical interactions as well, but the sphere of influence then includes other children and teachers.
Math and Timing
Music makes learning math easier. The rhythm of the music composition allows a child to learn counting and timing. Learning timing is also essential in time management, and consequently, self-management.
Physical Benefits
Dance party! Music is the easiest way to get kids up and moving. Young children love to dance and move expressively to music. Additionally, playing instruments can aid in development of spatial reasoning, hand-eye coordination and fine motor control.
Linguistic Benefits
Singing and musical stories can help children with vocabulary and reading skills, understanding lyrics and word play. Exposure to a wide vocabulary through music can help children learn to communicate verbally and make learning to read more fun.
Improves Mental Health and Quality of Life
Alzheimer's Video
"In a now famous You Tube video, Henry, an elderly man with dementia, is transformed by the power of music. Initially slumped in his chair and unable to recognize his own daughter, Henry seems to be miraculously brought out of his stupor by a few minutes of music from his youth. This footage demonstrates a well-known but understudied effect: music can really "awaken" Alzheimer's and dementia patients." Read more >
Improves Social Connections
Strengthens Social Connections
Students who participate in school band or orchestra have the lowest levels of current and lifelong use of alcohol, tobacco and illicit drugs among any group in our society. (U.S. House of Representatives, Concurrent Res. 266, June 13, 2000)
Elevates Quality of Life for Adults
Older Americans who are actively involved in music show improvements with anxiety, loneliness, and depression issues that are critical in coping with stress, stimulating the immune system and improving health. (American Music Conference 2007)
Improves School Performance
A Harvard-based study has found that children who study a musical instrument for at least three years outperform children with no instrumental training—not only in tests of auditory discrimination and finger dexterity (skills honed by the study of a musical instrument), but also on tests measuring verbal ability and visual pattern completion (skills not normally associated with music).
The study, published October 29, 2011 in the online, open-access journal PLoS ONE, was led by Drs. Gottfried Schlaug and Ellen Winne. "While it is no surprise that the young musicians scored significantly higher than those in the control group on two skills closely related to their music training (auditory discrimination and finger dexterity), the more surprising result was that they also scored higher in two skills that appear unrelated to music—verbal ability (as measured by a vocabulary IQ test) and visual pattern completion (as measured by the Raven's Progressive Matrices). And furthermore, the longer and more intensely the child had studied his or her instrument, the better he or she scored on these tests."
Better Math Testing
Middle school and high school students who report consistently high levels of involvement in instrumental music show significantly higher levels of mathematics proficiency by grade 12 regardless of students' socio-economic status. (U.S. Department of Education)
Increases SAT Scores
The College Entrance Examination Board found that students in music participation scored 63 points higher on verbal and 44 points higher on math tests than students with no arts participation.(College-Bound Seniors National Report: Profile of SAT Program Test Takers, Princeton, NJ: The College Entrance Exam Board, 2001)
There have also been plenty of essays written in the past several decades about why music (and by extension, music education) is so important, and this article is a great addition to the collection.
It's by Karl Paulnack, Director of the Music Division of the Boston Conservatory, and it comes from a welcome address that he gave to freshman students in 2004.

Just so you know, I've uploaded three FREE tracks over at my website. click over to www.derekbrink.com and check them out. They'll only be available through about Christmas or New Year's, depending on when I remember to pull them down… So act fast!
I'll give you a short summary of them… They're all kind of along a similar theme—kind of a mini-concept piece with no real concept. The one called "Sweet November" is about falling in love when you're over the age of 30. (A "May-December" romance refers to a couple where one of the two is much older than the other. The older one is said to be in "the December" of their life…well, speaking as a roughly 30-year-old guy, I'd say there's not anything wrong with being in your November and still looking.) "Sad & Sweet" is more or less about someone from my life. I think it kind of speaks for itself…but it's basically a love song. "You and Your Perfect Life" is about drifting apart from someone you love, watching them fall in love with someone else, and watching them live out a nice little lifetime.
Also, I played everything on them. There's guitar, bass, DRUMS, and vocals…so, yeah…apparently I play the drums now. 🙂
Hope you like them.
And Happy Hanukkah to all my Jewish friends!

While we've been experiencing darker commutes, drizzly lunchbreaks and leaves travelling in the wind, it's safe to say that Autumn is in full swing. It's very important for businesses to look after their outdoor pipes during Autumn because they can build up or get clogged with leaves and debris very quickly. Managing the build-up of leaves can be a draining thought (quite literally!), so we've done all the research that you need in this blog to tackle clearing out your drains and pipes this season.
Get your gloves on…
When researching the best gardening tools online, it's easy to get lost in the array of gimmicky gadgets that are used for cleaning up leaves. We would recommend to strip back to the basics and get a pair of work gloves to scoop out the build-up of leaves and debris in your down spouts and drains. Be sure to clear out your pipes at least twice a month to avoid them getting clogged over time.
Drain Guards
To avoid your drains from getting seriously blocked, you can invest in a drain guard. Keep any leaves or debris out of the way while still allowing water to pass through the drain. With the power of online shopping, you'll be able to safeguard your drains this Autumn by getting a drain guard delivered to your business by tomorrow morning!
Outdoor vacuum
If you have left the task of clearing your pipes out too late this Autumn, there's no need to worry. You can use a specialised outdoor vacuuming system to clear out any serious blocks in your drains and pipes caused by leaves and debris. There are many local companies that hire out this equipment and will quickly sort out the problem for ou.
Don't forget to recycle
After clearing out the leaves and debris from your drains and pipes, we would recommend recycling these materials. You can do this by disposing of them in your green garden waste recycling bin.
Another way to reuse the leaves and debris collected is to turn it into compost. Producing compost is easy and affordable, start by storing your leaves in a compost bin and within 3-4 months, they should turn dark and crumbly. Compost holds essential nutrients and moisture needed which means it's perfect for growing healthy plants.
Have you prepared your business's pipes for the cold weather yet? Avoid bursts and leaky pipes this season by following these 4 easy steps on our blog.

It seems obvious but communication is first and foremost and cannot be stressed enough. There is nothing solo about a team game in StarCraft 2. You're not going to win it by yourself and neither are your teammates. You've got to be talking, planning, and strategizing together. Whatever useful information you gather needs to be shared and if you notice something going on from the opposing team speak up, ping the map, and shout at your teammates!
If you're playing with a randomly selected team speak up at the start of the match and get people talking. Some people are just introverts and don't say much or anything at all. These people will be your team's folly so get after them and get them communicating.
Watch your neighbors' backs and speak up when you see trouble incoming. You're likely going to be attacked by several players or the whole opposing team at once and you need to thusly defend in that same manner. This can only happen by being vigilant and in constant communication with each other. If you want to move out or secure a position you need to let your teammates know so they can watch your back and assist as needed.
The easiest way for the other team to catch your team off guard and without reponse is by being silent. So chat it up, help your peers, and expect the same in return.
On the flip side we're talking about communication here, not marching orders. Don't be a dick; no one likes to be told what to do or what they're doing wrong. So be polite and gently prod those that need it and you'll find your overall team environment much more pleasant and successful.
A team game means everyone can wear different hats, player roles is up... Next>>>

Peering into the World of Pears
Apples tend to come to mind first when we think of fall fruit thanks to orchards offering "pick your own" days and hot apple cider spiced cider donuts and other warm apple treats gracing restaurant menus and curbside food trucks. But apples aren't the only game in town when the days get shorter and a chill comes into the air. You know it's autumn when pyramids of pears appear at grocery stores and farmers' markets.
Fruit is getting a bad rap in some nutrition circles. It is "nature's candy" and aside from honey fruits are the sweetest-tasting whole unprocessed foods available. And even though this is of course natural sugar it's still sugar and high consumption of fruit may not be suitable for some individuals depending on their individual metabolic state and health goals. Owing to its fructose content fruit was long considered a "safe" food for diabetics. This is because fructose does not have a significant impact on blood glucose; however due to the obligate metabolism of fructose in the liver heavy consumption of fruits that are relatively high in fructose (such as grapes) may exacerbate non-alcoholic fatty liver and pathological insulin resistance.
A small pear (about 150g) provides less than 90 calories almost all of which is carbohydrate. Of the 23g total carbohydrate approximately 1g is sucrose 4g are glucose over 9g are fructose and 5g are fiber. The glycemic load is miniscule at a rating of just 5. This would make pears seem like an ideal choice for those struggling with blood glucose management but being that the low glycemic impact is due to the predominance of fructose over glucose a patient's total state of health should be considered when healthcare professionals make recommendations regarding fruit consumption.
To be realistic though if a patient desires a little something sweet it's better they reach for a pear than a donut or a can of soda. Compared to certain other fruits and most vegetables pears aren't bursting with nutrients but they're not completely devoid either. Data on generic commodity pears in the U.S. indicate that pears provide small but not insignificant amounts of vitamins C and K potassium copper and manganese. Asian pears which look like yellow-brown apples and are firmer and slightly less sweet than regular pears have a similar nutrient profile but deliver those vitamins and minerals in a lower sugar package. An Asian pear (around 120g) provides 13g of carbohydrate made up of 4g fiber and 9g of total sugar. (Data on fructose and glucose content are unavailable but with 9g of total sugar the fructose content would be less than that of regular pears.)
The amount of fructose in pears isn't cause for alarm or total avoidance. It's simply a matter of assessing whether pears can fit into a patient's diet depending on their goals. Patients who enjoy fruit should not feel restricted solely to blueberries and raspberries which are celebrated for their antioxidant content. As long as they eat whole unprocessed pears rather than pears canned in syrup this fruit can fit into a healthy diet.
There are several varieties of pears but the ones North American consumers are most familiar with are the brown-skinned bosc Anjou or d'Anjou (available in both green and red) and the yellow-green Bartlett. Farmers' markets may offer lesser-known varieties such as Forelle Seckel and Comice which are typically not found in supermarkets. The flesh of under-ripe pears is firmer crisper and more tart than ripe pears. To determine when a pear is ripe experts recommend the "check the neck" method: "Apply gentle pressure to the neck of the pear with your thumb. If it yields to pressure it's ripe." Since pears only ripen at room temperature an unripe pear will not ripen in the refrigerator so it's not recommended to refrigerate fruit that hasn't yet ripened. Once ripened you can extend the "shelf life" of pears for a few more days by keeping them in the fridge.
Pears need not be limited to a lunchbox snack or dessert as pear crumble or pears poached in wine. Pears are versatile and equally at home in savory dishes such as celery root and pear puree sausage-stuffed baked pears gingered pears and parsnips and roasted butternut squash and pears. (Those last two are excellent for Thanksgiving!)
We can't say there are extraordinary health claims about pears and they may not offer a tsunami of micronutrients the way liver and shellfish do but that doesn't mean they don't have a place at the table. They're delicious they're versatile and their relatively low overall carbohydrate density makes them suitable for many different dietary approaches.

Online frauds have residents losing lakhs
While the Chandigarh cyber cell booked a city man for cheating through an online advertisement claiming to provide admission to medical colleges here on Wednesday, the police say the case is just one among the numerous online frauds that they have been dealing within the city.chandigarh Updated: Feb 07, 2014 10:40 IST
While the Chandigarh cyber cell booked a city man for cheating through an online advertisement claiming to provide admission to medical colleges here on Wednesday, the police say the case is just one among the numerous online frauds that they have been dealing within the city.
Interestingly, even the police have not been spared as the website of Chandigarh traffic police was hacked in November last year. The case is still under inquiry.
HT takes a look at the kind of online crime affecting city residents and how the unequipped cyber cell of Chandigarh police is consistently struggling to handle it.
The cyber cell of Chandigarh police has registered over 1,200 complaints from January 2013-January 2014, of which 290 are pending. While the maximum number of complaints are related to banking frauds, a new scam ensuring online jobs is doing the rounds these days, resulting in people losing money in lakhs.
Though the number of such complaints pending for inquiry is only 11, the police caution residents saying that such crime may affect many more in the future. The number of complaints received in the past year is much more, however, in most cases, the files have been closed, say police officials.
What is online job scam?
People get lucrative job offers from prominent companies. According to police, one receives an email offering a job interview from a prominent company. The mail demands the 'selected' candidate to send a demand draft claiming it to be refundable token money. However, once the money is paid, there is no further correspondence from them.
How these emails reach your inbox
The modus operandi tracked by the police suggests that these fake companies pick resumes posted at different job websites or other such email ids which are available readily, and send such mails.
Case studies
A Sector 38-west resident registered a complaint with the cyber cell in March 2012, alleging that he had been offered a job abroad through emails, following which he had deposited `18.75 lakh in nine different accounts. However, later, neither the assured job was given to him, nor the money refunded. Status: Case pending.
A resident of Sector 15 complained in December last year that she had received a job offer from 'Wipro Technologies' via email. Believing the same, she deposited `8,250 as refundable security, but the offer was found to be fake later. Status: Accused traced, declared proclaimed offender.
A Sector-46 resident registered a complaint against a fake job offer from 'Larsen and Toubro Ltd' in October 2013, where he was duped of `9,500. Status: Under inquiry

You've probably heard that sprinkling a few drops of lavender essential oil on your pillowcase at night will help you get to sleep faster (anything to catch more Z's, right?). It's true: Natural oils are revered for their calming, relaxing properties, but EOs can also come in handy when you need to stay alert and focused. You see, certain oils are actually able to stimulate the brain almost immediately, resulting in better focus—and sometimes a little mood boost, too.
Chances are you're thinking, How does this all really work? Well, the emotional hub in our brain is directly linked to the olfactory epithelium in our noses, and this tissue communicates the effects of fragrance to our mind. "Aromatherapy is used to cure a variety of maladies while boosting other bodily processes," says Emily Feldon, a certified health coach. "In particular, essential oils can profoundly improve memory, helping to boost both your focus and your recall time."
Meet the Expert
Emily Feldon is a certified health coach who is passionate about the health benefits of essential oils, especially ones that improve memory and focus.
Speaking of focus, we've rounded up the top 10 essential oils for concentration for when you just need to get things done.
A 2016 study found that students who worked in a room with the fragrance of rosemary essential oil in the air actually scored 5 to 7 percent higher on memory tests. The findings were not all that out of the ordinary, said Mark Moss, one of the researchers working on the study. He explained that the herb has been associated with memory for years and even references a line in Shakespeare's play Hamlet: "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance."
How to use rosemary essential oil: When it comes to using rosemary oil (and all essential oils, for that matter), there are three approaches you can take: 1) inhalation (e.g., via a diffuser), 2) topical application (be sure to dilute the EO with a carrier oil, water, or unscented lotion), or 3) ingestion (e.g., in a cup of tea or in pill form). Before you even pick up a dropper, run your self-treatment plan by your doctor or a qualified herbalist to ensure it's safe. And if you're thinking about taking your EOs internally, double-check that it's on the FDA's list of EOs safe for consumption.
Lavender is often thought of when it comes to promoting relaxation (remember what we said about putting some on your pillowcase at bedtime?). But a Japanese study actually discovered that, when inhaled during a work break, this essential oil can improve your concentration once you get back to the tasks at hand. The research specifically focused on students on their recess (some were exposed to lavender oil; others to jasmine essential oil, which didn't have any effect). The study points to the fact that lavender's ability to lessen stimulation and decrease stress was likely helpful in allowing the students to take an appropriate break and refresh themselves for their next round of work.
How to use lavender essential oil: Evoke a focused state of mind by diluting the lavender EO to two percent (the potency generally thought to be safe for topical application) by mixing it with a carrier oil—think jojoba, olive, and grapeseed—then massage the oil blend into your temples or wrists, or dab it right under your nose.
In case you didn't know, peppermint is actually a cross between a spearmint and water mint plant. According to a study conducted in 1991, inhaling peppermint essential oil is helpful when it comes to sustained attention tasks, those that "require observers to remain alert and to detect infrequent and unpredictable stimulus events over prolonged periods of time." Take, for example, professionals such as truck drivers, pilots, and quality-control personnel—these workers need to be on their A game and focused for long stretches of time.
How to use peppermint essential oil: Peppermint is reportedly not as effective when it's ingested (like in peppermint tea), so your best bet is apply the EO topically or take the inhalation approach. Add up to six drops of peppermint essential oil to two tablespoons of carrier oil, massage a small amount into your palms, then cup your hands over your mouth and nose, breathing deeply to the count of five.
If you want a milder scent, opt for cypress oil. "This evergreen scent can help to increase concentration without suffusing your entire house with the scent of licorice, à la basil essential oil and some of the other more pungent oils," says Feldon. What's more, it blends well with other essential oils.
How to use cypress essential oil: A go-to concentration blend is one drop of cypress, two drops of cedarwood, two drops of lemon, and one drop of pine. Add the blend to the diffuser of your choice and count on the fragrance to help you meet that deadline.
Seriously, the zesty, fresh scent of lemon alone could wake us up. In one study, inhaling lemon essential oil helped improved participants' ability to type—workers who inhaled this fragrance made 54 percent fewer errors (wow!). Another study found that using a lemon essential-oil blend in aromatherapy helped to improve cognitive function in a group of Alzheimer's patients (they inhaled lemon and rosemary oils in the morning and lavender and orange oils at night). Bonus: Breathing in this citrus essential oil will also give you natural stress relief.
How to use lemon essential oil: Nothing can derail a train of thought quite like an unkempt workspace. Tidy your desk or work area, then spritz down hard surfaces with an aromatic lemon-vinegar cleaner made from equal parts water and vinegar and several drops of lemon essential oil. Not only can the spray help boost your mood, it'll keep your space germ free: Lemon EO has been shown to have antibacterial properties.
This essential oil emits a woody, licorice-like fragrance—similar to the herb (Ocimum basilicum) from which it's derived. Those in search of a concentration aid will likely be more interested in the fact that basil essential oil contains linalool, an organic compound that has shown to reduce memory loss and stress in scientific studies.
How to use basil essential oil: Sprinkle two drops of basil EO onto a handkerchief and inhale deeply to help you retain your focus. After you've completed the task at hand, mix a couple drops of basil essential oil with a carrier oil and Epsom salts, then add the mixture to the tub for a luxurious (and well-deserved) soak.
Sourced from the cananga tree—a flowering tropical tree that's native to India, Southeast Asia, and parts of Australia—ylang-ylang essential oil is commonly associated with luxury bath and beauty products—and for its use as an aphrodisiac. This sweet- and floral-smelling EO should also get credit for its effectiveness as a concentration aid, as there's a scientific link between topical use of ylang-ylang essential oil and the relaxed state conducive to optimal focus.
How to use ylang-ylang essential oil: Pre-brainstorming sesh, treat your skin to an invigorating steam facial. Simply fill a large bowl with boiling water, then add three to seven drops of ylang-ylang EO—and a few springs of fresh herbs if you're feeling so inclined. Drape a towel over your head, then position your just-cleansed face no closer than six inches to the steaming bowl of water. Stay in position for about 15 minutes to fully reap the aromatherapeutic benefits of the steam.
If you're looking to up your mental stamina, keep a bottle of frankincense essential oil handy because this EO is esteemed for its memory-boosting abilities. In fact, in a 2016 scientific study, frankincense (Boswellia papyrifer) EO is credited for having a therapeutic effect on rats with Alzheimer's disease. Another study, conducted in 2011, showed a link between frankincense essential oil and improved spatial memory retention in male lab rats.
How to use frankincense essential oil: To set the mood for focus and concentration, bring a pot of water to a simmer on your stovetop. Add a few drops of frankincense EO to the water, and it'll soon fill your space with a fragrance that's earthy, sweet, and spicy—just be sure to keep an eye on the water so that it stays below boiling.
Native to Oceanic Southeast Asia, the sandalwood tree is the source of the essential oil with the same name. The EO boasts the same woody fragrance that's earned sandalwood a spot on countless ingredient lists—from candles and incense to perfume and lotions—but it's also associated with an ability to promote mental clarity. In a 2003 study, a correlation was found between the transdermal application of sandalwood EO and increased attentiveness in human subjects.
How to use sandalwood essential oil: Add a few drops of sandalwood essential oil to your diffuser to fill your space with a fresh, invigorating fragrance. No diffuser? Dab a few drops of the EO onto a cotton ball, then tuck the ball into a fan cage for a DIY take on the unitasker. Pro tip: You can also wedge one of the balls into a car's air vent for aromatherapy on the go.
Get this: In two scientific studies involving humans with Alzheimer's disease, the use of sage essential oil (S. officinalis and S. lavandulaefolia) was linked to improved cognition—that is, the "processes associated with attention, memory, judgment and evaluation, reasoning, problem solving and decision making." The findings bolster sage's long-standing reputation as a catalyst for mental clarity; a 2005 study showed a link between sage EO and alertness, calmness, and contentedness in human subjects.
How to use sage essential oil: Combine sage EO with the carrier oil of your choice, then massage the oil blend all over your feet, from your heel to your toes. In reflexology, the top segment of the toe is believed to be connected to the brain, so massaging your toes can help promote mental clarity. Nota bene: It's said that the foot contains larger-than-average pores, and this allows EO to be absorbed into the body more rapidly.

"Illuminating them": A community-driven project for spreading education
Akriti Manandhar, Chittagong Community Manager
Chittagong, 25 February 2016
Bangladesh is one of the most populated countries in the world and, because of overpopulation, has lot of children living in slum areas. Most of these children are deprived of proper education. Chittagong, a major coastal seaport city of Bangladesh, has many such families living in slums. For an overpopulated country like Bangladesh, the government cannot reach out to all of its population to improve education, despite having related policies. Children who do not go to school are not sent to school by their parents because of lack of finance or lack of awareness about the importance of education. Once they become a teenager, they are sent to work as maids, or at construction sites to earn for their family. The children who are to be the future of the country are not getting proper education, which could perpetuate a vicious cycle of poverty and illiteracy. Basic education is important for getting better jobs, better opportunities and personal development, leading to urban development and economic prosperity of the country.
One of the projects being carried out in Chittagong using participatory methodology is "Illuminating them." The program is being initiated by youths from academic institutions in Chittagong gathered under an organization named "Youth's Voice." These youths want to turn the problem of overpopulation in Chittagong into an advantage by utilizing the human capital to build on more human capital for the country. These volunteers, who are from class nine to undergraduate students, teach slum children. These youths are enthusiastic volunteers who are willing to contribute their time and energy to spread the knowledge that they have obtained in their academic institutions. According to one of the volunteer teachers, they teach basic English, math, Bengali language and science education to the slum children who regularly attend these classes. They usually focus on giving these children a moral foundation so that they can take good and calculated decisions in the future for their as well as community's betterment. The children and parents are first interviewed to know the level of child's knowledge in different subjects taught through this project. The children are then grouped according to the knowledge they have in the subjects for efficiency in teaching and learning.
This initiative is not just limited to educating the slum children. It connects to larger processes by also educating the children's parents so that they understand the importance of education to be willing to send their children to these classes. The parents are introduced to Bengali and English alphabets. They are also taught some negotiation and basic English skills that are important for their daily life.
The city of Chittagong appreciates this community-driven idea. More youth are joining this project, leading to its sustainability. People realize that though government might be spending a large sum of money for improvement in education sector, a simultaneous citizen-led approach is needed, too. Chittagong has been experimenting with participatory processes, especially through youth involvement. More youth are getting involved in social initiatives so as to develop their community and spread education.

Our Mission is Safety
The National Safety Council eliminates preventable deaths at work, in homes and communities, and on the road through leadership, research, education and advocacy.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The National Safety Council made Arkansas the fifth stop on a nationwide tour of its exhibit, Prescribed to Death: A Memorial to the Victims of the Opioid Crisis, by unveiling the exhibit inside the Arkansas Union on the University of Arkansas campus. The Memorial's arrival – made possible through a partnership with Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge – comes in the midst of an opioid crisis that continues to worsen. NSC analysis indicates opioid overdoses in Arkansas have risen 21% in the last 10 years, with 169 fatal opioid overdoses in 2016.
The memorial exhibit is free and open to the public from 1-7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 3, and from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily until Oct. 9 inside Room 201 of the Arkansas Union, 435 Garland Ave., Fayetteville. Prescribed to Death is one of several components of the Council's Stop Everyday Killers campaign – a national effort to help educate Americans about the risks of taking opioids and put a face on the thousands killed from preventable overdoses. The memorial launched last year in Chicago and has since visited Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Washington, D.C., and Buffalo, N.Y. It will travel to Houston Oct. 22-24.
"The most fatally abused drug today may be sitting in medicine cabinets across Arkansas," said NSC President and CEO Deborah A.P. Hersman. "Fortunately, we know what we need to do to eliminate these preventable deaths, and education plays a critical role. We hope the Stop Everyday Killers campaign helps personalize this tragedy in order to save lives."
The Prescribed to Death exhibit includes a memorial wall made of thousands of small white pills, each carved with a human face to represent those lost to prescription opioid overdose in 2015. Visitors will receive first-of-their-kind "Opioids: Warn Me" labels for insurance and pharmacy cards in an effort to prompt a critical conversation between patients and prescribers about risks and possible alternatives. NSC partnered with Stericycle, a Chicago-based waste disposal company, to provide pre-paid Seal&Send envelopes to memorial visitors so they can easily and anonymously mail back old or unused prescriptions safely.
Individuals who have lost loved ones to opioid overdose will have the opportunity to honor them by adding their loved one's name to a digital memorial provided by the National Safety Council, or by sharing photos, flowers or personal effects on site. Please note, items left at the memorial will not be returned.
In addition to Attorney General Rutledge's office, the exhibit is underwritten by contributions from Stericycle, Nationwide Insurance, Walmart, Arkansas Municipal League, Association of Arkansas Counties, Prescription Drug Safety Network - powered by EVERFI, and Schneider.
