Several States Hire New Dental Directors
(State Policy)
Permanent link
All Posts
2014 has been an active year in oral health as several states have hired new dental directors. Additionally, California is finalizing funding and working through the administrative process of hiring a state dental director.
In May, Lindy Bollen, Jr., D.D.S., became the new Director of the Office of Oral Health within the Arkansas Department of Health. Dr. Bollen earned his D.D.S. from the Louisiana State University School of Dentistry (
). Dr. Bollen was in private practice over 22 years before stepping away from active practice and taking a position at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (
) in 2006. While at UAMS, Dr. Bollen's responsibilities included giving lectures on oral anatomy, oral medicine and pathology, and pharmacology as well as clinic supervision of dental hygiene students. Additionally, he served as an instructor in radiography, dental materials and local anesthesia labs.
Dr. Bollen comes from a family of dental professionals: his father was a dentist, his uncle was a dentist, another uncle was an orthodontist, his brother is a dentist, his sister is a dental hygienist and his
son-in-law is a dentist.
Gov. Jerry Brown's (D-CA) 2014–15 budget calls for ongoing funding of a state dental director. The state oral health program, which is slated to receive $470,000 during the first year, will include assessing oral health needs in the state, developing and managing a state oral health plan and applying for and managing federal and private grants to support oral health.
The funding for the state dental director and oral health program is in the 2014–15 budget package that the California Legislature must approve by June 15, before going into effect July 1.
In March, Cathy Taylor-Osborne, D.D.S., M.A., became the new Director of the Bureau of Oral Health at the Kansas Department of Health and Environment. She earned her D.D.S. from the University of Missouri - Kansas City School of Dentistry (
) and her M.A. in bioethics and health policy from Loyola University. She practiced dental hygiene for 15 years before pursuing her D.D.S.
Dr. Taylor-Osborne previously served as the Dental Director of Cabot Westside Medical and Dental Center, a federally qualified health center in Kansas City, MO. Prior to that, she was in private practice for 10 years.
In February, Tonette Hollingsworth, RDH, M.S.D.H., became the Oral Health Program Coordinator for the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services. Although Montana does not have a formal dental director position, Mrs. Hollingsworth serves as the highest-ranking dental professional employed by the state. She earned her B.S.D.H. from the
University of Wyoming
, and her M.S.D.H., with an emphasis in community and rural oral health, from
Idaho State University
Mrs. Hollingsworth worked as a clinical RDH in Montana for 13 years prior to transitioning into public health. In her new role she will administer workforce-related grant activities. Grant activities include oral health surveillance, interprofessional collaborations, placement of University of Washington dental students in rural settings in Montana and recruitment and retention of dental professionals to serve rural communities.
South Carolina
In April, Raymond Lala, D.D.S., became the new Director of the Division of Oral Health within the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. In addition, he also serves as a Program Manager in the Dean's Office at the James B. Edwards College of Dental Medicine, Medical University of South Carolina (
). Dr. Lala earned his D.D.S. from the Louisiana State University School of Dentistry (
Prior to his retirement in April 2014 from the
U.S. Public Health Service
, Dr. Lala served as the Deputy Director, Division of Health Professions Support in the Indian Health Service Headquarters; as Chief Dental Officer for the
National Health Service Corps
and as the Director of the Division of Scholar and Clinician Support in the Health Resources and Services Administration (
). Prior to federal service, Dr. Lala managed a private practice in the New Orleans metropolitan area for 15 years.

WTF? I'm guessing you got hacked...I'll look into that. Not a bad review...a bit short on detail, but it got my interest, mainly due to the comparison with A Love Supreme.
*reads site forum* Ah, I see.
What are you talking about? This is the same review that I posted on Amazon.com, if that's what you mean. I don't see anything wrong with that.
There was a bunch of spam here earlier, someone posting stupid stuff. The other comments look kind of funny now. Nice review, I'm guessing this would be a tough write anyways. This is fairly high on my priorities list, very interested in Ayler.
I added a bit to the review, just to beef it up and be more explanatory.
Nice work. I wasn't having a go at you or your review, in case you're wondering, but someone was hacked, and posted some spam in the comments section.
Oh.. I guess you got rid of it pretty quick, since I never even saw it.

CD/LP/Track Review
Multiple Reviews
Eric Hofbauer Quintet: Prehistoric Jazz – Volumes 1 & 2
Doug Wamble
Marsalis Music
If you thought that Wamble's style of mixing jazz, blues, gospel, and popular music was just a fluke; then think again because his new recording proclaims that he for real. What continues to impress, is his abilities as a singer, guitar picker, and improviser. With equal strengths the question is asked: Does he sing better or does he play guitar better? The unqualified answer is simply yes on both counts. Whereas his acclaimed debut Country Libation offered the obligatory "get to know me" recording; Bluestate has a more focused and relaxed vibe due to the return of his longtime band members, who are now given more of a chance to show their wares with fine performances as things open up on the socially conscious "If I Live to See the Day" with Wamble's dissonant vocals layered against a jazzy and upbeat melody interspersed with solid solos. The music is fueled with a touch of soul and spirituality on the lamenting yet beautiful ballad "Washing of the Water" written by Peter Gabriel and a burning rendition of the Negro Spiritual "Rockin' In Jerusalem" featuring Branford Marsalis on saxophone filled with gospel and hard bop goodness with extended solos and soulful vocals. Make no mistake * this is a serious jazz band with nifty instrumental pieces like the groovy "Homewrecker Hump," "No More Schrubs in Casablanca," and the nod to bluegrass on "The Bear and the Toad" as they serve up jazz - "Southern-fried" style on this outstanding and progressive release.
Miguel Zenon
Marsalis Music
With its many prescribed definitions, jazz music is about having roots. The third release by saxophonist Miguel Zenon explores Jibaro (pronounced he-bar-ro), the musical roots of his rural homeland in Puerto Rico with new sounds that are extracted and infused with his own ideas in this most captivating recording. Continuing on the heels of 2004's promising Ceremonial , Jibaro shows that Zenon is one of the many shining lights in jazz music today, with fresh concepts and fluid angularity from his slightly acidic-toned alto.
Zenon's "dream band" returns with Luis Perdomo on acoustic piano, Hans Glawischnig on bass, and Antonio Sanchez on drums. They have gelled to a consistency of consummate musicianship and the ten compositions incorporate traditional Jibaro music and modern jazz with stunning results. The almost tribal-like cadence of "Seis Cinco," the festive atmosphere of "Punto Cubano," or the majestic beauty of "Aquinaldo": each piece is imbued with complex patterns, colorful rhythms, and Zenon's fresh perspective.
Superb contributions from the band abound with pianist Perdomo, who is also a key member in Ravi Coltrane's quartet, providing some if his most elegant and gutsy work to date, backed by the taut and dynamic rhythm section of Glawischnig and Sanchez on "Villaran" and "Llanera" as Zenon's alto burns brightly. His soloing on "Marianda" is spacious, free, and as the recording concludes with the infectious title piece "Jibaro" it simply leaves the listener wanting more.
Personnel: Doug Wamble - guitar & vocals; Roy Dunlap - piano; Jeff Hanley - bass; Peter Miles - drums.
Track Listing: 1. If I Live to See the Day 2. Washing of the Water 3. The Homewrecker Hump 4. Antoine's Pillow Rock 5. Rockin' Jerusalem 6. One-Ninin' 7. No More Shrubs in Casablanca 8. Have a Talk with God 9. Gone Away 10. The Bear and the Toad
Personnel: Miguel Zenon - alto saxophone; Luis Perdomo - piano; Hans Glawischnig - bass; Antonio Sanchez - drums.
Track Listing: 1. Seis Cinco; 2. Fajardeno; 3. Punto Cubano; 4. Aguinaldo; 5. Chorreao; 6. Enramada; 7. Villaran; 8. Llanera; 9. Marianda; 10. Jibaro.

text: Igor, I see you added a patch for building transmission with qt4. Are you going to update transmission in the book? If so, I can take it off my todo list. Actually, the only references to Qt5 in the book are transmission and poppler (optional but I think it's only to create poppler library for qt5). I'd be in favor of archiving Qt5 and qtchooser from the book for now until Qt5 is used in more places. It would simplify things quite a bit if we are going to make a BLFS 'stable release'. -- Bruce

First hover today. I'm so freakin' happy. Took me forever to figure out the
setup / pitch / throttle curves / and every other thing I knew nothing about. LOL. I have a decent beginner set I made (can still go wild 3D with idle-up mode). When you kick that in (idle-up).... OH MY !!! Freakin AWESOME !!! (I only did it on the ground). And with the curve, that was only 80% throttle. This thing is wicked. Very tricky to hover, even with a super docile custom setup. Of course, it would be easier without the 8 Mph shifting breeze... If anybody buys a 250GT and uses a SKY-703 radio, and Skyartec head lock gyro, you are welcome to my setup, posted here. It's a good starting point at the very least. https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B5i...mswZUhHLW1CTHM It took me several hours to figure all the settings out, and this might save you some time. |
Nov 28, 2012, 02:12 PM | ||
of power. Idle-up is scary As far as the gyro, I have a huge roll of servo tape. No big deal if I have to move it. The only place the canopy is tight is at the battery, as I have it way forward to try to balance it. |

Just FYI I'm sure that will change once I get used to the completely different flight behavior. The high head speed makes gyroscopic forces 10 times greater on the 250GT. ** EDIT The HK250GT handles wind far better than the 9116. It's just harder to fly because I suck at it. |
Nov 30, 2012, 05:38 AM | |
Broke my first part on the 250GT today. I was sliding sideways about a foot
off the ground and a gust made it dip and catch the skid. Only broke 1 leg, so I can still fly it. But if I had been 2 feet up all would be good. Stupid. It can get away from you SOOO FAST... just a nudge on the sticks for a split second is all you can give it unless you want it taking off like a freakin' rocket. I need to get a radio with programmable rates and epa's so I can tone it down a little while I learn. When it starts to get out of shape, you set it down NOW. If you have to think about it, it's too late... you've already bit the dust. All you can do is cut the throttle and hope the blades "bounce" off the blacktop. This thing is pure evil. Devil bird from hell, I'm not kidding. I equate it to trying to balance a marble on top of a bowling ball. I can't believe I have not totaled it already. But it is so satisfying to fly... the sound, the snappy movement. The way it holds it's position if you are on the sticks right. It is just soooo smooth. The spin rate of this thing is completely nuts. The tail can spin around so fast it's a blur. |
Nov 30, 2012, 09:10 AM | |
If you tipped with enough force to break a skid leg, you should check the feathering shaft. They are always the first thing to bend. When you disassemble the head, pay very close attention to the order of the bushings, bearings, rings, etc. Lots of beginners overlook this. Going from a DH9116 to a 250 clone has to be the biggest jump I've ever heard of. Ranks right up there with starting with the old Walkera 4#3B.
Nov 30, 2012, 10:14 AM | ||
until I went to power down. I was going sideways at a good clip and just nicked a crack in the blacktop. If it wasn't for that crack, all would be well The heli kept flying as if it weighed 200Lbs. Didn't even twitch. Like I said, I didn't even know I broke anything until post flight. I've ran a pack through since, and it seems ok, nothing different that I can tell. Still smooth and snappy at the same time I've got it sitting waiting to see if CA will bond it back together but I doubt it, they are just too flexible. |

On a different note, the 9116 is totaled... Kid was flying, got it too far away.
I took over but it was already too late, couldn't see it. Had to throttle cut, and this time it needs battery, PCB, head, frame, and other stuff. Not even sure I want to fix it. |

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
SHURE BETA 58A SUPERCARDIOID DYNAMIC VOCAL MICROPHONE There is certainly no shortage of microphones to choose from in the $300.00 and under price range. I dare say, that there must literally be thousands of microphones to choose from in the under $300.00 price range. Obviously, with that many microphones to choose from, there will be some that are not so good, some that are very good, and a few that will do an outstanding job at what they are designed to do. With so many microphones to choose from in the price range of under $300, picking the right one can be a very daunting and confusing task. A microphone that I have worked with in the past and have been pleased with is the Shure Beta 58A Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone. Read on and see if the information provided in this review describes the type of microphone that you might be interested in auditioning the next time you are visiting your local musical instrument or electronics store. The Shure Beta 58A is part of the Beta series of microphones manufactured by the Shure, which is arguably the most popular and recognized name in the world of microphones. The Shure Beta 58A Supercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone retails for $300.40, but it can be had at a discount from most musical instrument national chain stores and reputable Internet dealers for as little as $159.00. The engineers at Shure have been making solid, reliable, road worthy microphones for many years, and they have built a reputation as being a manufacturer of excellent electronic equipment. Shure microphones are built to last, and the Shure SM58, which is the small cousin to the Beta 58A, is possibly the most popular vocal microphone among young performers today. Shure products are built to last, as I can attest to, as I have a 30 year old Shure SM58 that still works quite well, even though it has been dropped a few times, and looks a little worn. I have used Shure microphones for years for various applications, and I have confidence in the name Shure. The Shure Beta 58A is a dynamic microphone. A dynamic microphone is based on a very simple and rugged design. There is a diaphragm, a voice coil, and a magnet. When sound waves hit the diaphragm, it vibrates. The voice coil, which is attached to the back of the diaphragm, is surrounded in a magnetic field which comes from being in proximity to a small permanent magnet. The vibrations of the diaphragm cause the voice coil to vibrate as well, and the movement of the voice coil within the magnetic field generates a very small electrical current, which carries all of the information about the sounds, which caused the diaphragm and then the voice coil to vibrate in the first place. This electrical information travels along the cable that the microphone is attached to, and is retranslated into something that duplicates the acoustical properties of the original sound that started the whole process in the first place. In short, acoustic or sonic energy is transferred into electrical energy, and then back into acoustical energy or sound which can then be amplified and heard over a speaker system. Another important feature of the design of this microphone is that it has Humbucking coil design, which as guitar pickup affectionado's well know, is a design that reduces unwanted noise and hum. The Shure Beta 58A is a dynamic microphone with a supercardioid pickup pattern. A cardioid microphone suppresses picking up sounds that emanate from the sides and rear of the microphone, and thus it is termed as being a directional microphone. A microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern does an even better job of rejecting or suppressing sounds that originate from the sides of the microphone than a microphone with a cardioid pickup pattern. Thus a supercardioid microphone is very good at picking up sounds that are coming from directly in front of the microphone, and it is also good at rejecting or not picking up sounds that come from the sides of the microphone. This is why many live performers are attracted to using a microphone with a supercardioid pickup pattern, as there is less likelihood of sounds from the rest of the band or other performers on the same stage being picked up and amplified by the microphone that they are using. This is a very important feature to have in a microphone that is being used for live performances, as the Shure Beta 58A is better able to isolate the singer's voice from the musical instruments, and this makes controlling or shaping of the singer's voice an easier choir for a soundman working the mixing board. Another important feature of a microphone with a supercardioid pickup pattern is that is more resistant to feedback, even when it is being used at a high gain setting. The Shure Beta 58A has a frequency response of 50 Hz. to 16,000 Hz., and it has been specifically designed to be tailored to accentuate vocals. It has a bright midrange, which means that it helps vocals to cut through the mix without necessarily having to turn up the volume in the mix. This is something that is both useful in live as well as in studio situations. The Shure Beta 58A also has an advanced pneumatic built-in shock mount, which means that it is ideal for handheld use on stage, as it will reject handling noise, and it will also be less sensitive to vibrations and related sounds that might travel up the microphone stand during a live stage performance. Because this microphone has been designed specifically for vocal use, it is also important for the reader to know that the Shure Beta 58A weighs in at a mere 9.92 ounces, and being light in weight, it won't as easily fatigue a singer who prefers to use it as a handheld microphone while performing. Because the Shure Beta 58A is a unidirectional dynamic microphone, it profits from the proximity effect. The proximity effect is the phenomenon of low end frequencies being accentuated the closer one is to the sound source. In the case of the Shure Beta 58A, the maximum bass response attributable to the proximity effect is achieved by placing the microphone about a quarter of an inch away from the sound source. Thus a singer can use the proximity effect to their benefit by simply moving the microphone closer or further away from their lips while singing. Moving the microphone closer to the singer's lips will give a very warm, full, rich, deep sound, with an accentuation of the lower frequencies. Normal bass response is achieved when the microphone is about two feet away from the sound source. As most of you know, when a singer gets too close to a microphone, there is always an increased risk of low end distortion and muddiness. However, because the frequency response of the Shure Beta 58A has been specifically tailored for close up vocal techniques, the low end muddiness that frequently accompanies close vocal techniques when other microphones are used is dramatically reduced. The Shure Beta 58 A also is available with a wireless set up, but I'll save that discussion for another review. As I mentioned earlier in this review, the Shure Beta 58A is a dynamic microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern. As you might imagine, having a supercardioid polar pattern also makes the Shure Beta 58A a good microphone to use in a studio setting, as much less unwanted sound is able to leak into the pickup pattern of the microphone. This makes the Shure Beta 58A a microphone that is ideally suited for a drummer who also is expected to handle vocal chores in a live setting. Because of its supercardioid pickup pattern, the Shure Beta 58A is able to reject sounds coming from the drums and cymbals better than a traditional microphone with a cardioid pattern. Of course, this makes it important for a singer to sing into the front of the microphone, and not off to the side, as off axis sounds are even more likely to be rejected than with a more conventional microphone with a more typical cardioid pickup pattern. Well I would like to thank you for taking the time to read my review, but now if you will excuse me, I must get back to my practicing.

Beef's future hazy
Industry is hit by feed, water shortage
Appetites may turn to turkey and ham this time of year, but when the holidays are gone, Wichitans may face sticker shock in that staple of the Texas diet — beef.
Some analysts predict beef prices could rise by 4 to 20 percent in 2013. Several factors are at play, but the underlying issue is drought.
The year 2012 began with promise, bringing rain in the winter and spring following a hideously dry 2011, but then rainfall dwindled, and drought is creeping over Texas again with pastures drying up and stock tanks dwindling.
Joe Parker Jr., of Byers, president of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association, doesn't think the price swing will be severe because of greater efficiencies in the supply chain, but he agrees drought is the chief problem facing Texas ranchers.
In 2011 many ranchers in Texas and across the Southwest sold off large portions of their herds because they didn't have adequate water or pasture for them.
Parker said reports indicate 11 percent of the state's ranchers liquidated their herds entirely in the 2011 drought, and another 35 percent reduced them substantially. Nationally, herds are at their lowest numbers since the 1950s.
"It's going to be a big challenge to restock the herds," Parker said, but pointed out ranchers have good seed for restocking.
Reduced herds and rising consumer demand might have spelled profitable times ahead for those ranchers financially secure enough to weather the 2011 drought.
But drought has returned, and even those cattlemen who squeaked through 2011 worry about the future.
Lack of adequate forage in pastures has forced some ranchers to purchase feed.
Here they run into a Catch-22.
The drought that loosened its hold in Texas through part of 2012 tightened its grip in the Midwest where grain feed for cattle is grown.
Cost of corn, cottonseed and other grain ingredients of protein supplements have risen. Hay, a livestock staple, more than doubled in price in many regions.
Even though this region is a good hay-growing area and was helped by earlier rains, the crop has been used up quicker than anticipated. Hay has become so pricey that Tillman County, Okla., Sheriff Bobby Whittington turned to GPS devices planted in bales to track and arrest hay thieves. Some cattlemen in Idaho have turned to potatoes as cattle feed because of its lower price and greater availability.
Some ranchers with deeper pockets have taken their animals to greener pastures, trucking their breeding stock and core herds to East Texas or as far away as Montana.
Beef prices during 2012 have risen more than 5 percent and the U.S. Department of Agriculture sees no indication that increase will decline next year.
Rising price of beef is one component that may drive up consumer food prices in 2013. The USDA says annual food price increases have been 2.5 to 3 percent over the past 20 years, but the agency sees a rise of up to 4 percent in 2013. Much of that can be attributed to a drought that just won't go away.

It's both the best of times and the worst of times for the free speech rights the network is supposed to support. To break the cycle of repression we must look more closely at the tools protesters and reporters use and ask whether they further the cause of freedom, or just make speakers more vulnerable.

CAIR-MINNESOTA Reviews
Invite reviews
CAIR MN has done an amazing job educating people from all walks of life about their rights as a citizen of this community and country. They work tirelessly to bridge the gap between people of various backgrounds and faiths by providing assistance wherever and whenever needed. One of their core principles is "CAIR is committed to protecting the civil rights of all Americans, regardless of faith" and that pretty much captures the essence of this organization.
CAIR-MN works tirelessly to advocate for communities facing illegal discrimination and marginalization from what should be democratic decision-making processes.
CAIR MN has done very beneficial work for the community. They have helped to organize many events that teach and train the Muslim community to work with the system and be an citizen that works to build and nurture the greater community. The board is a very professional board and the employees are very skilled and qualified group. I am extremely impressed by their work and their team.
The people who run CAIR MN are upcoming leaders who work very hard to lead Muslims in Minnesota to work with the system to deal with civil rights issues and discrimination.
Many good-hearted people bemoan the deterioration of relations between Muslims and non-Muslims since 9/11, but CAIR MN is actually doing the hard work of repairing the relationship. Through their work on various projects and organizations, their leadership reached out to mainstream institutions and donated their time and money to
constructively enhance Muslims and people of other faiths to work together. Through their leadership, I have seen many Muslim youth now lead in opening other organizations as well as leading
projects to contribute to a better Minnesota.
I was invited to many such forums and was impressed by the level of
organization, hard work and professionalism within the meetings. We recently had a forum with Law Enforcement and it was amazing to see many Muslim and Somali leaders address their concerns to Law Enforcement officials to understand how to secure our country as well as protect our civil rights. Such meetings in the political climate are very hard to arrange and facilitate.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
The community now turns to them for problems. When problems arise in our community - they have developed a trust with the community and the system to effectively bring about a solution. Some examples is the anti-Shariah bill by working with a coalition of interfaith partners. And recently - leading the community when hate crimes occur to respond by working with law enforcement effectively.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
The organization seeks out input and wisdom from the community. So it is an open organization for voices to contribute their ideas. We are always given out opinions and ideas and that is important. So I would not change a thing.

Coalition Building
What is its top priority in the long run?
Financially independent and running various projects and committees to build the community to counter Islamophobia and effectively deal with hate crimes and civil rights.
CAIR-MN works hard to educate the community while also serving the Muslim population. I was very impressed with the educational program they offered to area local law enforcement members. Their undertaking to educate and improve Muslim/law enforcement relations is vital to future successful exchanges between the two groups. They are a group of dedicated individuals working hard to make Muslims a better understood community.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
An amazing group of young people making a huge difference and making America and MN a better place for everyone.
These are the new Rosa Parks and new MLKs, & other amazing figures who stood up to bigotry, challenged racism and made America better.
Kudos to the volunteers and staff for standing up for Equality and LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.
This is what America is all about.
So happy to know this nonprofit and service exists, paving the way for practical action in the way of civil rights and making it easier for all communities of people to live freely as they have a right to.
I have been working with CAIR-MN as a Designer for three months now. In my time here, I have come to learn that they are so many things to the community: an affordable legal service so everyone has access to a lawyer; a source of valuable information that everyone (really, everyone!) can benefit from and utilize; an advocate and supporter to people who felt like they had no one on their side; and a huge help to the community itself, by providing positions and internships for young people to get involved in civil advocacy in a meaningful way. I personally feel very close to my work for CAIR-MN. I've had the opportunity to watch true civil advocates in action, while creating work that I'm proud of.
More feedback...
Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Very Well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
CAIR-MN provides the most needed service of representation to Muslims and others who need help when they are being discriminated because of religion or because being member of a Minority Group. CAIR-MN not only provides the representation but also provides the Education so these discrimination does not happen again and again.
Keep up the great work CAIR-MN!!!!
I have worked in the social services sector for more than 15 years and have rarely encountered an organization that is as effective as CAIR-MN at bringing the highest quality legal and advocacy services to some of the most vulnerable populations of people in our communities.
This is the most professionally run Muslim organization in Minnesota. They do tremendous work and the only people who raise issues with that are the Islamophobes. No one opposes a civil rights organization unless they are a bigot.

burned bridges what to put on job application
0 What does one put on an application if your last position didn't work out? Or if you "burned bridges?" If you know you won't get the best reference from your last place of employment? Not because of any mistakes but it just wasn't a good fit?

Where I live, just a few miles from a nursing school, jobs are hard to come by. I would gladly relocate. Any tips??0May 1, '12 by BuckyBadgerRN, RNQuote from jenniebethrnNot to split hairs, but being let go from a job because the fit wasn't right and burning bridges on the way out (which to me means the OP told them to pound sand or something along those lines on her way out the door) are VERY different things....that happened to me. i was let go and i just explained to my other jobs that i wasn't a good fit. that's really what my boss told me, so it was the truth. nurses are in need everywhere and i've had 2 jobs since that job. no worries0May 1, '12 by jtk57Not trying to sound too high and mighty, but we should all consider the long term consequences of a short term indulgence in "giving the boss a piece of my mind about the way she runs this unit" or "burning bridges", etc. Nursing and healthcare are a small community, especially when you are looking for jobs in the same metro area. Finding a job is hard enough without having people think you are a bad apple, even if it is not true or you just had a moment of weakness.
That being said, at least in the state where I work, the policy for management is, if they are called and asked if RN A worked on their unit, they say "yes" or "no" and really don't offer that much more. Managers are not able to provide recommendations and they are not expected to provide any information other than whether or not the RN worked for the time indicated on their resume. If that is the case in your area as well then it seems to me it wouldn't matter if you burned bridges, at least as far as the formal application process goes. Like I said though, informal communication between managers and other nurses could be a problem.0May 1, '12 by stargazer88I guess I didn't really mean "burned bridges" I had a very difficult time with my preceptor. She was very critical. Had only been out of school a year, but super confident. My weakness is not standing up for myself with more authorative type personalities. I left with them thinking I wasn't a great nurse. More embarrassed than anything.

The ATG16L1 gene is also known by other names, listed below. Read more about gene names and symbols on the About page. What is the normal function of the ATG16L1 gene?The ATG16L1 gene provides instructions for making a protein called autophagy related 16-like 1. This protein is part of a larger family of proteins that are required for a process called autophagy. Cells use this process to recycle worn-out cell parts and break down certain proteins when they are no longer needed. Autophagy also plays an important role in controlled cell death (apoptosis). Additionally, autophagy is involved in the body's inflammatory response and helps the immune system destroy some types of harmful bacteria and viruses. Does the ATG16L1 gene share characteristics with other genes?The ATG16L1 gene belongs to a family of genes called WDR (WD repeat domain containing). A gene family is a group of genes that share important characteristics. Classifying individual genes into families helps researchers describe how genes are related to each other. For more information, see What are gene families? in the Handbook. How are changes in the ATG16L1 gene related to health conditions?
Where is the ATG16L1 gene located?Cytogenetic Location: 2q37.1 Molecular Location on chromosome 2: base pairs 233,251,570 to 233,295,673 The ATG16L1 gene is located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 2 at position 37.1. More precisely, the ATG16L1 gene is located from base pair 233,251,570 to base pair 233,295,673 on chromosome 2. See How do geneticists indicate the location of a gene? in the Handbook.

Jamba, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Jamba, Inc. (NASDAQ:JMBA) today reported unaudited financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2012. The Company recorded a quarterly comparable sales increase of 3.9%, marking two years of consecutive, quarterly Company-owned stores and system-wide sales growth.
Jamba continued its solid gains in store-level profitability as improved traffic drove increases in all day parts. During the quarter, Jamba opened 12 new stores, eight in the U.S. and four in international markets.
"The excellent results Jamba has achieved during the quarter and year-to-date give us good momentum for a strong finish to the year," said James D. White, chairman, president and CEO of Jamba, Inc. "This progress gave us an opportunity during the quarter to increase our investments in marketing to deliver customer value-oriented promotions designed to grow our customer base and strategic growth initiatives, like JambaGO® and Talbott Teas®, which will accelerate our growth as a healthy, active lifestyle brand.
"Our marketing encourages trial by new customers, who become long-term fans, by showcasing our healthy on-the-go options along with our value proposition. Our innovative JambaGO initiative continues in high gear with 169 served locations at the end of the quarter.
"Based on our strong year-to-date performance, we are affirming our guidance for 2012 and providing a preliminary 2013 outlook that underscores our optimism for the future," concluded Mr. White. Highlights for the 13 weeks ended October 2, 2012, compared to the 12 weeks ended October 4, 2011:- Company-owned comparable store sales (1) increased 3.9%, franchise-operated comparable store sales (1) increased 1.0% and system-wide comparable store sales (1) increased 2.5%.
- Net income was $4.1 million, and represents $0.04 diluted earnings per share for the quarter, compared to net income of $4.1 million or $0.05 diluted earnings per share for the prior year period.
- Investment during the quarter was accelerated in targeted customer value-price promotions and several growth initiatives, including JambaGO.
- General and administrative expense increased to $9.7 million from $7.4 million, resulting from the accelerated investment in growth initiatives and an additional week of expenses included in the 2012 fiscal third quarter.

worked out pretty wellByrickdizzle February 20, 2015 So my wife and I stayed two days but in two different rooms because we decided last minute to stay another night. The first room was great but had no ice maker so we had to wait for our drinks to get cold in the fridge. The a/c in the second room barely worked but thankfully it was cool outside so we opened the windows. Also it was not stocked with any dish soap or dish washer soap. Overall it was a good stay. But they missed some things

I'm asking because I can't decide whether I should approach a dealer or the manufacturer about advertising.
If it's a small mom and pop manufacturer, then they will be spending to get the word out about their products.
Manufacturers are marketing to distributors and wholesalers (usually). B2B as it were. They can and do spend a lot in various trade journals, trade shows, etc.
Dealers are marketing to retail (still B2B) or end consumers.
You need to consider the who and compare it to your traffic base before you go looking to sell advertising.

I've now been doing jigsaws and making my own photos into puzzles with Brainsbreaker for several weeks and I am delighted with the program.

Very nice program you made, my family and I will have a lot of fun puzzling!
Herman W. - Netherlands
Brainsbreaker is the best puzzle making program that I ever used. The features are great and it is well worth the price. I am SO addicted to BrainsBreaker that I do at least two or three puzzles FIRST thing in the morning while having coffee.
I enjoyed the game couple of thousand dollars worth of puzzles worth.
Sharon - CA USA
I have got your puzzel. It´s so funny. I can do puzzel till I am 100 years old. Thank you and have good life.
Inger - Sweden
It installed in just a few seconds and we're already working the puzzles, which are truly beautiful and have so much variety. Your website should be proud of the way in which you service your customers and we will recommend you to all of our friends. Thank you once again.
Bill & Sandi - TX USA
Of all the junk I have bought over the internet over the years, Brainsbreaker remains my favorite game.
Michael - NH USA
Thank you so much for putting together this program. I have been enjoying it so much for the past 3 years that I can not imagine how I may have maintained my sanity without it.
This has been the best puzzle program I have ever seen. I just bought a new computer with a big screen, primarily for your program. I really enjoy puzzles.
Nancy - NJ USA
Over the past few years I don't think I've used any other game near as much or enjoyed it more.
Jim - MI USA
This was my first experience with downloadable purchased software and it was completely positive. I love the program and found it to be very user-friendly as well as non-invasive to my system. (XP Home) I have searched for a long time for just such a program and the BrainsBreaker exceeded my expectations. Thank you and good work!
Nancy - MN USA
Felicitarles una vez más porque de verdad que es algo increible nunca conoci un entretenimiento que sea tan completo como este, en mi caso diria que actua como un relajante natural y buenisimo, un juego maravilloso.
Pablo - Spain
This is by far the best buy I've ever come across, so many ways to challenge yourself and look at your own photo's at the same time.

No se puede imaginar que placer tan grande que es para mi, poder disfrutar de tan maravilloso programa, muchas gracias a usted por darme la oportunidad de participar en él.
Ana María P. - Mexico
Quiero contarle que lo estoy disfrutando al máximo junto con mi hijo, lo cual fueron las dos razones para adquirir la licencia. Todos los días en la noche nos sentamos a armar los rompecabezas, a crear y maravillarnos de las imágenes. Y al otro día amanecemos muy descansados, relajados y con muy buena energía para el nuevo dia.
This is the neatest puzzle program I have found and I know I will enjoy it. I did what the message below said and the program is working. Have a great day.
Thank you for a very well presented program. Have enjoyed using it very much in the last two weeks. You seem to have thought of everything to make using it a pleasure.
This has to be the best money I have ever spent! I purchased your program a few years ago and I think I can say, without exaggerating, that I work on a puzzle every night! Its terrific! Its how I unwind after a long day.
Leslie - Princeton New Jersey
What a wonderful program you developed. It's more fun than a physical puzzle. You've thought of so many elements to make it fun & usable. Many many thanks from a long-time puzzle addict with no room to lay one out!
Janet - NY USA
I tried it, fell in love with it, ordered it, and I just want you to know, it is the best thing I ever got. I love puzzles, now I can make as many as I need. So THANK YOU very much for making it. One very happy person.
Há muito tempo que eu tenho o Brains Breaker e me divirto até hoje. Tanto que quando soube da versão 4.0 nem pensei duas vezes para fazer o upgrade. Parabéns novamente, o programa é sensacional.
Rodrigo - Brazil
You have done a great job of creating this game. I cannot tell you how many hours of enjoyment it has given me.
Cathy - IL USA
This game is fantastic and I play it for hours. As you know there is no limit to the puzzles you can create. This keeps me entertained forever
Kat - TX USA
I have fixed jigsaw puzzles since I was a kid. Now I am and old lady with a new computer and I have not found anything that gives me more joy than my brainsbreaker. I do not know what is the most fun, fixing the puzzles or surfing the internet to find them. Also, this has forced me to explore the tools of my computer that I would never have thought to try. Thank You.
Vivian - TX USA
Just a note to let you know how much I am enjoying your BrainsBreaker game. I always upgrade whenever it is offered and the latest addition of shapes is a challenge. Love it! Thanks for inventing this most exciting game.
Joyce - CA USA
I am enjoying the game immensely. I find one problem though - I am getting nothing else done. :-)
Dick E.
Les puzzles sont formidables et tres complets.
