Aerospace Consortium for Employment
A collaboration of 11 Washington community and technical colleges
Oct. 10, 2011
Contact: Jen Boyer, Media Relations
Lake Washington Institute of Technology
(206) 398-8430
Washington Technical Schools and Community Colleges Awarded $1.58 Million for Aerospace Training
WASHINGTON: Thirteen Washington two-year colleges will share $1.58 million in Governor's Investment in Aerospace (GIA) grants to develop fast turnover training in aerospace.
A mix of Gov. Christine Gregoire's discretionary Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds and state aerospace training funds, the grants are designed to assist community and technical colleges throughout the state develop new training in aerospace industry-identified areas.
In response to the governor's direction of the discretionary WIA funds and the grant RFP, community and technical colleges in Washington collaboratively formed the Aerospace Consortium for Employment (ACE). The consortium's mission is to meet urgent workforce needs with short-term training programs in the areas of precision machining, machine maintenance, fiber optics and quality assurance/inspection. The consortium worked with The Boeing Company to identify areas of immediate need in the aerospace industry and identified two to six month training program opportunities to meet those needs.
ACE applied for and was awarded a GIA grant, which will be applied toward developing programs that retrain or enhance skilled aerospace workers in precision machining, machine maintenance, fiber optics and quality assurance/inspection. Fund allocation and usage vary between the schools. On a whole, the monies will go toward equipment purchase, additional faculty and program development.
Below is a listing of the ACE colleges and their portions of the grant:
Bates Technical College (Tacoma) $91,229
Bellingham Technical College (Bellingham) $112,944
Columbia Basin College (Pasco) $111,232

The wise father has nothing to leave his wife in the way of property upon his passing away, nothing to gain from leaving her destitute, when she already had control of the land and the place they together as a married couple planned to dwell in.
Matthew 18:19
"Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven."
He in turn left a home that was not barren.The male child she gave birth to did not lack identity as her son...the married couple together called the male child their son or the female child their daughter.She carries on the name and there is no doubt through the many coming generations exactly who she is or was. The past predicting the future correctly liken the Father Omnipotent God himslef already did physically providing a woman that gives birth physically to a son.
1 Corrinthians 15:24
"Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power."
Luke 9:25
"For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?"
Abrogation of ther law takes place in many ways here on Earth when men do not follow the rules correctly...you will not get anywhere following the rules based on economic or corporate law or listening to the suggestions provided by ethics committees, trained with the same duites as judges that judge economic famine.
Proverbs 19:17
"Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed."
The penny in you hand does not belong to God...it's entirely yours to emphasize the way you chose to responsibly?
James 2:18
" But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works."
Look at the women that surround you, especially if you are a man. Women are individuals with an individual's soul. What happened to make them end behind bars? It was the duress men caused them to experience. She is was not properly sanctified before God.
Matthew 25 The Parable of the Ten Virgins

Past Breast Feeding Issue - HELP
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 11-19-2012 - 11:15am
Hello everyone!
I have two children, ages 11 and 6, and had a lot of trouble breast feeding at all. Both of them had to go on formula very quickly due to not gaining weight the way they should have (because I was not producing). With my youngest I treid eating well, sleeping enough, drinking plenty of fluids and even pumped a lot to try and sitmulate my production that much more....still...nothing. She wasn't gaining weight and the doctor said she needed to be on formula around 4 weeks of age. My finace and I are now discussing starting to try for another after New Years. I SO badly want to be able to nurse this baby and I am basically willing to try anything to be able to do so. I know that there are some herbs that I can take, teas to drink and even some presctiptions that can be taken, but I want to take the right path as soon as possible.
Has anyone had any experience with any nursing medications or herbs in the past? How soon can I start taking them to help my production to be the best it can be at birth?
Thank you in advance for all of your help! I do appreciate it. :)
|Tue, 11-20-2012 - 8:27pm
Welcome to the board and thanks for stopping by!
I'm sorry you had troubles nursing your older children. When you had issues, did your dr. refer to do a board certified lactation consultant for an evaluation? Did the LC have any suggestions or ideas at that time as to what was going on? Are there LCs on staff at the hospital where you'll be delivering? Is there a La Leche League group in your area that you can attend while you're pregnant? Are there private practice LCs in your area that you can call on if you have troubles after discharge?
Do you have any health issues that might affect supply, like PCOS, diabetes, thyroid issues, hormonal issues or prior breast surgeries? Did you take hormonal birth control from early on by any chance?
Sorry to bombard you with questions! Hang in there!
|Sat, 11-24-2012 - 9:22pm
I too am interested to hear the answers to the questions Dana posed. I think it's also important for you to know that each time you have a pregnancy you will grow more milk making cells so sometimes a mom who has problems with earlier breastfeeding experiences will do fine with later ones.
The most important aspect of producing enough milk is taking enough from the breast via effective and frequent breastfeeding. Here's some information about getting off to a good start in the hospital.
Getting off to a good start with breastfeeding in the hospital
Your diet and fluid intake is not really important in regards to breast milk supply. Yes, it's a good idea to eat healthy and drink enough fluids to replace the fluid you are using to make milk because it's good for you and helps you have the energy you need to take care of your family. However, a poor diet and poor fluid intake will not usually impact milk supply, nor will a healthy diet and drinking large volumes of fluids increase supply. As a matter of fact one study showed that over drinking can lower supply. So drink to thirst, and make sure your urine is pale not concentrated, through most of the day.
It's really important to make sure your baby is latched well. A good latch will help the baby breastfeed effectively which helps the baby extract enough milk. When the baby is able to take the milk from the breast effectively the breast almost always replaces what is taken out. Here's more on latch. (btw, did you have sore nipples with your other children?)
How do I know my baby is latched correctly?:
If you want to provide extra stimulation to milk supply you could pump and hand express after each breastfeeding session. It would be best to have a high quality pump and have the hospital lactation consultant show you how to hand express. If you opt to do that, don't be discouraged if you don't get any milk via the pump or hand expression right away. Hang in there anyway, it can take time for the body to respond to the pump but the stimulation will still be good.
If you had supply issues in the past it will be especially important for you to understand how to judge milk supply because I'm sure you'll worry more than the typical mom (which is pretty much………..;-)……….)
Is my baby getting enough milk?
Be sure you do lots of skin to skin cuddling. It can really help promote milk supply. I usually tell mothers to breastfeed at least every 2-3 hours. At 2 hours from the start of the last feeding place the baby skin to skin and start to watch for feeding cues like mouthing, eye flutters, hand to mouth movement, etc. Encourage the baby to wake up by stroking the baby's back and playing with the hands and feet and breastfeed as the baby shows more signs of readiness. Be willing and expect to cluster feed a lot in the first week or so and then daily for several hours usually in the evening as describe here.
What's a normal breastfeeding routine?
I'm not a fan of the teas, they are generally not strong enough to make a difference. If you are going to use herbs, the one that has the best evidence of effectiveness (which isn't much) is fenugreek. You would need to take 3 capsules 3 times per day (9 total). It can cause some moms to have some diarrhea and of course as with any herb talk to your doctor to make sure it's ok for you.
Avoid using a pacifier until you are sure your baby has established a good weight gaining pattern. Pacifier use can slow a baby's weight gain and interfere with breastfeeding especially in the early weeks.
It's also good to know a 'normal' weight gaining pattern. Be sure your pediatrician is using the World Health Organization's breastfeeding growth chart, and not an older one designed by formula companies.
If your next baby is gaining slowly, it's also not always the best solution to just switch to formula. Usually I would have a mom begin pumping and supplementing with expressed breast milk if possible while we work to figure out and resolve the breastfeeding issues.
It's really rare for a mom to not produce enough milk. It's almost always what we would call a 'management' issue like an ineffective latch, suck or not breastfeeding frequently enough or a combination.
Get back if you can with your thoughts after you read the information we provided and with answers to the questions from Dana and me.

I BFed my DD for over a year and I am now BFing my 6 month old DS. I tried the fenugreek tea and other herbal teas that were supposed to help with lactation. At least for me, regular fruit teas worked equally well. I think it was mainly about the warm and nice smelling liquid that not only hydrates you but helps you relax and calm down (not obsessing about if you're producing enough milk also helps ;) ) and not the magical ingredients.
Oh, I'm also a fan of 'lactation cookies'. Again, I'm not sure if they help with the actual milk production but they definitely are healthy and taste yummy. Good luck!

We have a planfor every budget
The forensic auditor of the copier world, BottomLine Advantage LLC shows large companies how they can save at least $227,325 in office copier and printer costs while increasing performance of their document management vendors and equipment.
SUPERIOR, CO, USA / ACCESSWIRE / June 17th, 2014 / There are many thousands of dollars of waste in every company's operating budget. Companies simply lack the "industry insider" knowledge needed to achieve optimal cost. "We know most companies are overpaying their copier vendors," says David Cantliffe, founder and president of BottomLine Advantage LLC. "Our "insider" knowledge and system allows us to recover a minimum of $227,325 in hard budget dollars (for target-sized clients) with no up-front cost to them. In fact, we guarantee it."
"The biggest challenge we face is that companies don't realize how much money they are wasting," explains David.
"Companies do the best they can to save money with the information they have. The reality is that they don't have all of the information they need to get the best prices and service from their vendors."
BottomLine Advantage isn't an equipment vendor. They don't sell supplies. They don't service equipment. They are a performance-based, client advocacy group that specializes in reducing hard dollar costs for copy, print, and fax expenses while simultaneously enhancing vendor service support levels.
David has recently released a book titled Slash Your Operating Budget! 5 Secrets to Recovering Wasted Budget Dollars. He wrote the book to help companies understand why they're overpaying their vendors, and he offers solutions to help them stop wasting budget dollars. The book covers all major corporate expense categories, not just the copying and printing arena.
David's vendor experience in the copy, fax, and printer industry spans more than 23 years. He spent 18 years "on the streets" as a sales representative for a large copier vendor. But it was only when he became an equipment distributor that he discovered specific knowledge of the real costs and service parameters in the industry. With that insider knowledge, he has saved his clients more than $15.9 million since he founded BottomLine Advantage in 2005.
Bottom Line Advantage's clients have given them high praise. Bob Engel, Regional Controller for Clear Channel Denver says, "Now that I have been able to examine BottomLine Advantage's cost reduction system close-up, I realize that it would have been practically impossible for us to achieve the same level of savings they did. BottomLine Advantage is a cost-reduction specialist," Engel adds, "It was an eye-opener in so far as the level of service that we could in fact reasonably request and receive from our vendor."
Bruce Green, Corporate Director of Purchasing for Lowes Hotels says, "I can now verify, in the case of Loews Hotels, that BottomLine Advantage exceeded their project savings guarantee. Our hotels are now seeing real hard dollar savings."

Teach English in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE)
Dubai is an ultra modern city and a major trade center of the world. It is an extremely expensive city with wealth flying all over. The oil industry together with the tourism industry has made Dubai a hotspot of the Middle East. The significant economic and social growth of the city has contributed to the growing demand of the ESL teachers.
English is a mandatory subject in the schools of Dubai and it is taught as a second language mostly. However, there are very less native English teachers here in comparison to other parts of the world. The growing hospitality industry is mainly responsible for the high demand of the English language and subsequently teachers here. The English teaching jobs in Dubai are highly advertised in the websites and local newspapers all through out the year. There are also some agencies which conduct interviews of the teachers in countries like USA and UK.
The ESL teachers in Dubai can get jobs in private schools as well as the language schools. Private schools and international schools have a large number of expatriate students along with the local students. The language schools mainly cater to the professional's need of learning English. The working hours due to this reason might be quite hectic and odd. Private tuitions of English in Dubai are also quite common. It can be a very lucrative prospect side by side a permanent job in a school or an institute. Apart from teaching jobs, the TEFL qualified teachers can also take up jobs as a translator or interpreter in case they have knowledge of both Arabic and English.
Dubai pays the ENSL teacher very well
and the average salary of the teachers is between 8000 to 11000 AED. Most of the
times, the teachers are provided with accommodation and medical coverage.


text: July 24, 2006 The Honorable Richard Durbin Senate Minority Whip United States Senate 332 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator Durbin: I am writing on behalf of the American Nephrology Nurses' Association (ANNA) to thank you for offering your "Troops to Nurse Teachers Program" amendment to the Senate FY 2007 Defense Authorization bill. ANNA is a professional nursing organization of more than 12,000 registered nurses and other health care professionals that exists to advance nephrology nursing practice and positively influence outcomes for patients with kidney or other disease processes requiring replacement therapies through advocacy, scholarship, and excellence. ANNA sees the Troops to Nurse Teachers Program as a progressive and cost‑effective strategy for helping to relieve the critical nursing shortage. Nurses are central to the delivery of health care at the most susceptible moments in our servicemen's and women's healthcare experiences. Recently, as you know, the Armed Forces have not been able to meet their nurse recruitment goals, even when offering nurses incentives to join the military. The Troops to Nurse Teachers Program would help to sustain and strengthen our nation's nursing workforce which provides quality care to the members of our Armed Forces. Again, we thank you for offering this amendment and congratulate you on its passage. We look forward to working with you to secure its inclusion in the final conference report. Should you have any questions or if we can be of any assistance to you or your staff on this or other kidney disease or nursing related matters, please do not hesitate to contact us or our Washington DC Health Policy Associates, Christine Murphy (202‑230‑5159, firstname.lastname@example.com) and Jim Twaddell (202‑2305130, firstname.lastname@example.com). Sincerely, JoAnne Gilmore, BSN, RN, CNN President

We have cruised on Princess 2x before. Alaska - Coral Princess - Fantastic and Europe - Star Princess. We noticed a big difference with Princess and both my husband and I were disappointed!!!
The crew - bartenders, room attendants, purser's desk...were just awful...not professional - rude - and extremely unpolished...We could not believe we were cruising with Princess...What happened?
We want to travel to the Baltic area of Europe next year and now looking at other Cruise lines...
I wonder if this has anything to do with Princess merging with Carnival???
Food was awful as well....Complaints all over the place...passengers complaining constantly...about everything from rude crew members to horrible food...What a shame!!!
Coral Princess was my favorite and Star was totally wonderful as well...This was a big disappointment!

Sexual side effects....very little interest, delayed or no ejeculation....frustrating. Hard to get off the drug (after long term use), was very dizzy after rapid head movement for 3 months. Feelings of "not being there" when taking this drug, like being in a dream
