|[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-3421) Requirements for a Resource Manager for Hadoop
|Thu, 05 Jun 2008 04:23:45 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3421?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12602534#action_12602534 ] Vivek Ratan commented on HADOOP-3421: ------------------------------------- >> Queues are just artifacts of the design of a scheduler. Maybe I'm nitpicking here, and probably this is not very important, but queues are a requirement in this proposal, and queues, as mentioned in the requirements (which, hereforth, I will enclose in quotes) , are different from data-structure queues. A 'queue' is where users submit a job and is a user-facing feature. In the design, you may choose to implement 'queues' with whatever data structure you want. But there is something called a 'queue' which accepts user jobs, which supports access control, etc. Maybe calling it a job repository or some such thing helps? If there's confusion here, maybe it's to do with what people think should go in requirements and what should go in architecture/design? >> Having one queue, multiple queues, what kind of queues is a decision inside the implementation of a particular type of scheduler. Again, there is a difference between a 'queue' in the requirements and queues in implementation. The way the RM is visualized, you configure a Hadoop installation to support one or more 'queues' (post-V1, you'd likely have one or more 'queues' grouped into an Org), and you configure a bunch of stuff for each 'queue': access control, capacity, etc (see HADOOP-3479 for details). You can certainly configure your system to have as many, or as few, 'queues' as you want, and I don't see them as directly linked to the Scheduler implementation. There are certain queue configuration values that may affect scheduling decisions: for example, you may want to give more weight to some 'queues', so they have greater access to free resources. But it seems like you're suggesting a much stronger connection between the number of queues and the scheduler implementation. If so, can you elaborate? Perhaps a use case would help? >> The requirements do not include how jobs/resources are prioritized across queues. Req 3.3 says that "comparison of priorities makes sense within queues, and not across them". what this means is that it doesn't make sense for jobs to be prioritized across queues. Since a user submits a job to a particular queue, he/she really only cares where the job ends up in that queue. Maybe what you're asking is how are free resources (Map/Reduce slots, in V1) distributed across queues. For example, if a TT has a free Map slot, which queue does the RM look at? The requirements don't address that (maybe they should). There are a few options for implementation, which are discussed in HADOOP-3445 (see point #2 under the section 'When a TT has a free Map slot'). If you have some other ideas in this respect, I'd love to hear them on that Jira. >> The good thing about this design is that it decouples the scheduling from the already ambitious requirements. We can start with FIFO scheduler or strict priority scheduler and evolve in the long run. Exactly. It's important to keep the Scheduler piece (the component that decides which free resource to be allocated to which job/task) separate enough. Some scheduling algos work well with a full view of the system. Some may work well by looking only at their own Org, as you suggest. For now, the Scheduler algorithm continues to be the same - use priorities and FIFO to sort jobs, then use data locality and some other stuff to decide which task to assign the TT. This seems to be working reasonably well (we've been getting good data locality hits) so far, but can evolve if needed. I hope I didn't go off on a tangent here. > Requirements for a Resource Manager for Hadoop > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3421 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3421 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Vivek Ratan > > This is a proposal to extend the scheduling functionality of Hadoop to allow sharing of large clusters without the use of HOD. We're suffering from performance issues with HOD and not finding it the right model for running jobs. We have concluded that a native Hadoop Resource Manager would be more useful to many people if it supported the features we need for sharing clusters across large groups and organizations. > Below are the key requirements for a Resource Manager for Hadoop. First, some terminology used in this writeup: > * *RM*: Resource Manager. What we're building. > * *MR*: Map Reduce. > * A *job* is an MR job for now, but can be any request. Jobs are submitted by users to the Grid. MR jobs are made up of units of computation called *tasks*. > * A grid has a variety of *resources* of different *capacities* that are allocated to tasks. For the the early version of the grid, the only resource considered is a Map or Reduce slot, which can execute a task. Each slot can run one or more tasks. Later versions may look at resources such as local temporary storage or CPUs. > * *V1*: version 1. Some features are simplified for V1. > h3. Orgs, queues, users, jobs > Organizations (*Orgs*) are distinct entities for administration, configuration, billing and reporting purposes. *Users* belong to Orgs. Orgs have *queues* of jobs, where a queue represents a collection of jobs that share some scheduling criteria. > * *1.1.* For V1, each queue will belong to one Org and each Org will have one queue. > * *1.2.* Jobs are submitted to queues. A single job can be submitted to only one queue. It follows that a job will have a user and an Org associated with it. > * *1.3.* A user can belong to multiple Orgs and can potentially submit jobs to multiple queues. > * *1.4.* Orgs are guaranteed a fraction of the capacity of the grid (their 'guaranteed capacity') in the sense that a certain capacity of resources will be at their disposal. All jobs submitted to the queues of an Org will have access to the capacity guaranteed to the Org. > ** Note: it is expected that the sum of the guaranteed capacity of each Org should equal the resources in the Grid. If the sum is lower, some resources will not be used. If the sum is higher, the RM cannot maintain guarantees for all Orgs. > * *1.5.* At any given time, free resources can be allocated to any Org beyond their guaranteed capacity. For example this may be in the proportion of guaranteed capacities of various Orgs or some other way. However, these excess allocated resources can be reclaimed and made available to another Org in order to meet its capacity guarantee. > * *1.6.* N minutes after an org reclaims resources, it should have all its reserved capacity available. Put another way, the system will guarantee that excess resources taken from an Org will be restored to it within N minutes of its need for them. > * *1.7.* Queues have access control. Queues can specify which users are (not) allowed to submit jobs to it. A user's job submission will be rejected if the user does not have access rights to the queue. > h3. Job capacity > * *2.1.* Users will just submit jobs to the Grid. They do not need to specify the capacity required for their jobs (i.e. how many parallel tasks the job needs). [Most MR jobs are elastic and do not require a fixed number of parallel tasks to run - they can run with as little or as much task parallelism as they can get. This amount of task parallelism is usually limited by the number of mappers required (which is computed by the system and not by the user) or the amount of free resources available in the grid. In most cases, the user wants to just submit a job and let the system take care of utilizing as many or as little resources as it can.] > h3. Priorities > * *3.1.* Jobs can optionally have priorities associated with them. For V1, we support the same set of priorities available to MR jobs today. > * *3.2.* Queues can optionally support priorities for jobs. By default, a queue does not support priorities, in which case it will ignore (with a warning) any priority levels specified by jobs submitted to it. If a queue does support priorities, it will have a default priority associated with it, which is assigned to jobs that don't have priorities. Reqs 3.1 and 3.2 together mean this: if a queue supports priorities, then a job is assigned the default priority if it doesn't have one specified, else the job's specified priority is used. If a queue does not support priorities, then it ignores priorities specified for jobs. > * *3.3.* Within a queue, jobs with higher priority will have access to the queue's resources before jobs with lower priority. However, once a job is running, it will not be preempted (i.e., stopped and restarted) for a higher priority job. What this also means is that comparison of priorities makes sense within queues, and not across them. > h3. Fairness/limits > * *4.1.* In order to prevent one or more users from monopolizing its resources, each queue enforces a limit on the percentage of resources allocated to a user at any given time, if there is competition for them. This user limit can vary between a minimum and maximum value. For V1, all users have the same limit, whose maximum value is dictated by the number of users who have submitted jobs, and whose minimum value is a pre-configured value UL-MIN. For example, suppose UL-MIN is 25. If two users have submitted jobs to a queue, no single user can use more than 50% of the queue resources. If a third user submits a job, no single user can use more than 33% of the queue resources. With 4 or more users, no user can use more than 25% of the queue's resources. > ** Limits apply to newer scheduling, i.e., running jobs or tasks will not be preempted. > ** The value of UL-MIN can be set differently per Org. > h3. Job queue interaction > * *5.1.* Interaction with the Job queue should be through a command line interface and a web-based GUI. > * *5.2.* All queues are visible to all users. The Web UI will provide a single-page view of all queues. > * *5.3.* Users should be able to delete their queued jobs at any time. > * *5.4.* Users should be able to see capacity statistics for various Orgs (what is the capacity allocated, how much is being used, etc.) > * *5.5.* Existing utilities, such as the *hadoop job -list* command, should be enhanced to show additional attributes that are relevant. For e.g. which queue is associated with the job. > h3. Accounting > * *6.1.* The RM must provide accounting information in a manner that can be easily consumed by external plug-ins or utilities to integrate with 3rd party accounting systems. The accounting information should comprise of the following information: > ** Username running the Hadoop job, > ** job id, > ** job name, > ** queue to which job was submitted and organization owning the queue, > ** number of resource units (for e.g. slots) used > ** number of maps / reduces, > ** timings - time of entry into the queue, start and end times of the job, perhaps total node hours, > ** status of the job - success, failed, killed, etc. > * *6.2.* To assist deployments which do not require accounting, it should be possible to turn off this feature. > h3. Availability > * *7.1* Job state needs to be persisted (RM restarts should not cause jobs to die) > h3. Scalability > * *8.1.* Scale to 3k+ nodes > * *8.2.* Scale to handle 1k+ large submitted jobs, each with 100k+ tasks > h3. Configuration > * *9.1.* The system must provide a mechanism to create and delete organizations, and queues within the organizations. It must also provide a mechanism to configure various properties of these objects. > * *9.2.* Only users with administrative privileges can perform operations of managing and configuring these objects in the system. > * *9.3.* Configuration changes must be effective in the RM without requiring its restart. They must be effective in a reasonable amount of time since the modification is made. > * *9.4.* For most of the configurations, it appears that there can be values at various levels - Grid, organization, queue, user and job. For e.g. there can be a default value for the resource quota per user at a Grid level, which can be overridden at an org level, and so on. There must be an easy way to express these configurations in this hierarchical fashion. Also, values at a broader level can be overridden by values at a more narrow level. > * *9.5.* There must be appropriate default objects and default values for their configuration. This is to help deployments that do not need a complex scheduling setup. > h3. Logging Enhancements > * *10.1.* For purposes of debugging, the Hadoop web UI should provide a facility to see details of all jobs. While this is mostly supported today, any changes to meet other requirements, such as scalability, must not affect this feature. Also, it must be possible to view task logs from Job history UI (see HADOOP:2165) > * *10.2.* The system must log all relevant events about a job vis-a-vis scheduling. Particularly, changes in state of a job (queued -> scheduled -> completed | killed), and events which caused these changes must be logged. > * *10.3.* The system should be able to provide relevant, explanatory information about the status of job to give feedback to users. This could be a diagnostic string such as why the job is queued or why it failed. (For e.g. lack of sufficient resources - how many were asked, how many are available, exceeding user limits, etc). This information must be available to users, as well as in the logs for debugging purposes. It should also be possible to programmatically get this information. > * *10.4.* The host which submitted the job should be part of log messages. This would assist in debugging. > h3. Security Enhancements > * *11.1.* The RM should provide a mechanism for controlling who can submit jobs to which queue. This could be done using an ACL mechanism that consists of an ordered whitelist and blacklist of users. The order can determine which ACL would apply in case of conflicts. > * *11.2.* The system must provide a mechanism to list users who have administrative control. Only users in this list should be allowed to modify configuration related to the RM, like configuration, setting up objects, etc. > * *11.3.* The system should be able to schedule tasks running on behalf of multiple users concurrently on the same host in a secure manner. Specifically, this should not require any insecure configuration, such as requiring 0777 permissions on directories etc. > * *11.4.* The system must follow the security mechanisms being implemented for Hadoop (HADOOP:1701 and friends). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

I'd say he was a human being. Now, he's going to be an "asshole" again. - Jay Mariotti
One can only wonder what an insufferable daily ordeal it must be to share workspace and consistently lose out to Jay Mariotti for the back page of the Chicago Sun-Times.
Odds are that most of the other journalists at the Sun-Times who also cover Chicago's sports scene actually do care about their chosen profession and ply their job respectfully. All that hard work and dedication routinely flushed down the toilet by an overzealous tabloid influenced editor who purposefully chooses Jay's trash over credible hard work.
Seriously Rick and Chris, that must really suck balls.
Why is it that today's dateline indicates no location? Is Mariotti in Mesa, Arizona or not? And if so, why is Oz on the mind instead of the Cubs?
So many questions with no rational answers. What a disgrace and unjustifiable expense to the corporate account.
Apparently the dwarf stumbled upon a rerun of South Park's "It Hits the Fan" episode where heaven and earth shook when television executives were lampooned over exploiting the word "shit" (and ironically who is and who is not permitted to say "fag"). Jay must be quite proud of his accomplishment of "crossing the line" and exhibiting "gritty edginess" by typing "asshole" not once but twice!
Did someone just whisper Lisagor?
Mariotti apparently is in mid season form of ripping Guillen with a rather non flattering comparison to former Sox manager Terry Bevington. Somewhere out there in the swamps of New Jersey, a presumably now former minion with an affinity towards a particular cruciferous leafy green vegetable is bellowing over the betrayal of his master.
Once again, the pot calls the kettle black as the pundit accuses (again) Ozzie Guillen for being a "megalomaniac" while ranting and raving that the South Side's manager's "15 minutes expired two years ago." Furthermore, Jay claims :
- If he were a rapper, he'd be Vanilla Ice. If he were a trashy figure skater, he'd be Tonya Harding. If he were dead, he'd be Anna Nicole Smith.
Well, if he were a hateful vertically challenged flip-flopping raving idiot with a disturbingly enlarged head, he'd be Jay Mariotti. At least Ozzie Guillen has that going for him heading into the 2008 baseball season.

Arthritis Most Recent
BSc, MD, CCFP, MHSc, FCFP
Osteoarthritis is a prevalent health condition that affects millions of people worldwide.
In spite of great effort, low back pain (LBP) remains a significant burden on society and one of the most common reasons to see a primary care provider.
In 1987, the Quebec Taskforce noted, "Distinct patterns of reliable clinical findings are the only logical basis for back pain categorization and subsequent treatment."
Back dominant pain is either intensified by flexion or is not aggravated by bending forward.
Leg dominant pain suggests direct nerve root involvement: radicular, not referred symptoms.
With this special issue of the Journal of Current Clinical Care we aim to provide community healthcare professionals with practical clinical insight and support in managing patients with back pain.
Frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is a frustrating condition for both patients and physicians.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in older adults has a lower female-to-male ratio, and presents as either a rheumatoid factor positive typical case of RA, or an acute seronegative syndrome consisting of myalgia, fever, weight loss, and fatigue.
The two most common forms of crystal-induced arthritis among older adults are gout and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) deposition disease.
Although total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is a highly effective treatment for individuals with moderate to severe osteoarthritis who have not responded to medical therapy, disparities in TJA utilization based on gender, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status are well documented.

In A Black Veil For Lisa, John Mills (Ryan's Daughter) is Franz Bulon, a police inspector intent on bringing down a major drug ring operating in Hamburg. Thwarted at every turn by an assassin who is systematically killing informants, jealous of his beautiful, younger wife Lisa (Luciana Paluzzi, Thunderball) and suspecting her of having an affair (is it real or imagined?), Bulon can scarcely focus on his work.
With jealousy nearing the boiling point, Bulon hires Alex (Robert Hoffman, The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe), the assassin hes arrested for the recent informant murders, to kill his wife. With nods to both Alfred Hitchcock (Vertigo) and Henri-Georges Clouzot (Diabolique), the film builds on the suspense from scene to tension-filled scene.
Directed by Massimo Dallamano (Dorian Gray director and the cinematographer of Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More), A Black Veil For Lisa co-stars Tulio Altamura (Blood For A Silver Dollar), Carlo Hinterman (Women Of Devil's Island) and Enzo Fiermonte (Grand Prix).

Please be respectful in your talk page comments, even if you strongly disagree with the opinions expressed here. You can, of course, write another article about the same subject. Different opinions are welcome on Religion Wiki.
—"By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed." Adolph Hitler
—"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State." Joseph Goebbels
—"The essence of lying is in deception, not in words. A lie may be told by silence, by equivocation, by the accent on a syllable, by a glance of the eye attaching a peculiar significance to a sentence. All these kinds of lies are worse and baser by many degrees than a lie plainly worded. No form of blinded conscience is so far sunk as that which comforts itself for having deceived because the deception was by gesture or silence, instead of utterance." John Ruskin
The following excerpts are from The Mosque Exposed by Sam Solomon, a former imam and Islamic lawyer who converted to Christianity and is now residing in the UK, and E. Alamaqdisi, a prolific writer and debater, and a regular contributor to many Internet sites on the complex subject of Islam and its teachings. They also wrote Modern Day Trojan Horse: Al-Hijra, The Islamic Doctrine of Immigration, Accepting Freedom or Imposing Islam?
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—Despite the overtly cruel, harsh and intolerant Qur'anic views towards the 'others,' namely Jews and Christians, there are injunctions in the Qur'an that enable the Islamic community to disguise, play down, and, when necessary, deny both the intensity and validity of these anti-Semitic and anti-Christian teachings of its religious system.[1]
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—[Takiyya] permeates almost all the activities and dealings of Muslims within non-Muslim societies...[2]
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—Takiyya means "caution, fear, or disguise." It permits the suspension, as the need arises, of almost any or all religious requirements--including a total denial of faith--when fearing threat, injury or compulsion of any kind in a non-Muslim society, or even in a Muslim society.[3]
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—The Qur'anic injuction for takiyya is:
- Sura 16:106 Anyone who after accepting faith in Allah utters unbelief (kuffur) except under compulsion, his heart remaining firm in faith, but such as open their breast to unbelief on them is wrath from Allah.[4]
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—See also:
The word 'guard' in the phrase 'guard yourselves from them' is known as takiyya.[5]
- Sura 3:28 ...let not the believers take for friends unbelievers rather than believers. If any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah; except by way of precaution that ye may guard yourselves from them. But Allah cautions you Himself...
Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)—As an addition to takiyya, Muhammad sanctioned lying by saying that Allah will not hold a Muslim accountable when he lies in these three situations:
- when in war, espionage, concealment, or in weakness
- with his wife, or a wife with her husband
- when reconciling or maintaining peace
Muhammad went on to say, "War is deception."
This deception can be practiced at a personal level as well as at community level through its leaders and institutions.Takiyya is practiced by all Muslims, Sunni and Shi'ites alike...[6]
- See also Raymond Ibrahim's article for the Middle East Quarterly, Winter 2010: How Taqiyya Alters Islam's Rules of War
Kitman is close to Taqqiya but rather than outright dissimulation, it consists in telling only part of the truth, with "mental reservation" justifying the omission of the rest (adjustment, deception etc, anything short of a full-blown lie). For example when a Muslim maintains that "jihad" really means "a spiritual struggle" and fails to add that this particular definition is a recent invention in Islam [7](little more than a century old), he misleads by holding back the true violent nature of jihad, and is therefore practicing "kitman." Another example would be the insistence of a Muslim apologist that "of course" there is the freedom of conscience in Islam, followed by quoting the Qur'anic verse "There shall be no compulsion in religion." The impression given is false, for there has been no mention of the Islamic doctrine of abrogation, or naskh.
Conditions to lie set by Muhammad
Islam is the only world-religion that implies in its scriptures that it is ever permissible (or even encouraged) to lie. In his Sira, Muhammad authorized lying to improve the chances of successful assassinations, for example in the case of Shaaban Ibn Khalid al-Hazly and Bin Kaab.
- —Muhammad said: "Lying is wrong, except in three things: the lie of a man to his wife to make her content with him; a lie to an enemy, for war is deception; or a lie to settle trouble between people" [Ahmad, 6.459. H]
Quran verses
- Q2:225: A Muslim does not have to maintain his oath (faith) as long as what's in his heart is true:
- Treaties: A Muslim can break a treaty with a non-believer or even a "not so good" Muslim. Now, how can you authorize breaking a treaty without also authorizing lying?
- Q3:28: Muslims are told that non-believers are not friends. Logically it follows, that If you explicitly designate a group in your immediate social circle, as a non-friend, then you implicitly designate them as enemies, since enmity is the only relation that can be allowed to develop. As we see Muhammad allows lying to enemies, so now you have permission to lie to your non-believer non-friends (the West, the non-believing minorities, the "not-so-good" Muslims, etc..).
- Q16:106 If a Muslim is compelled to disbelief, do it. And Muhammad even took the pain to explain what he considered "compelling": (please see "Compelled to Lie" for more details). This verse does not mention when being "under fear of death" or "if a knife is put to your neck". This verse opens the door to lying, since you can deny faith, you can deny less important things.
- Q77:38 & Q9:5: Allows the Muslim to use any stratagem. A common Muslim defense is that this applies 'only in war' However as has been demonstrated, Muslims are always at war. Considering that non-believers can not be friends with Muslims. Therefore any relations can only be governed by enmity or truce. Also, Considering the Muslims are allowed to break a truce whenever they choose without prior warning (very dishonourable conduct) as per Treaties, I would have to argue that Muslims are constantly at war.
Compelled to lie vs allowed to lie:
Q16:106 states "if a Muslim is compelled to lie". It seems that 'compelling' and 'allowing' are synonymous as they both can occur following conditions set by Muhammad:
- To keep the peace in his house,
- To protect himself
- To bring peace among people.
Why else would someone lie if it were not for those 3 conditions listed above? Read the list again and ask yourself if there is any other condition worth lying for.
Questions: What did Islam add to humanity as far as lying is concerned? What is it that Muslims are not allowed to do today, that pagans were allowed to do before the founding of Islam in regards to honesty?
The following seems to say that a person can knowingly get two of his friends to lie about the consent given by a woman and the marriage will be upheld. So if she turns him down, all he needs to do is get two friends to lie and she will be his wife legally:— Narrated Abu Haraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "A lady slave should not be given in marriage until she is consulted, and a virgin should not be given in marriage until her permission is granted." The people said, "How will she express her permission?" The Prophet said, "By keeping silent (when asked her consent)." Some people said, "If a man, by playing a trick, presents two false witnesses before the judge to testify that he has married a matron with her consent and the judge confirms his marriage, and the husband is sure that he has never married her (before), then such a marriage will be considered as a legal one and he may live with her as husband." , See also: Sahih Bukhari 9:86:98 & Sahih Bukhari 9:86:101

Today on O&A, we start the show with both Opie and Anthony back from their vacations. Anthony talks about coming home from Miami over the weekend and what a nightmare it was. Ant's luggage was lost, his flight was delayed, and he ended up flying coach. Ant then brings up his vacation and how great his two week cruise was. He talks about zip lining, dolphins, and ATVs. We question Jim about why he doesn't do things, which he insists he does. Ant spent some time on the cruise watching gay porn, which he found on the computer of someone sharing the network. Jim had a dream about Steve Buscemi. Ant talks more about his stalker, who spent most of the vacation texting him. Opie brings up women bragging about how difficult their pregnancies were. He also has a fascination with abandoned towns and buildings. Opie saw Little Fockers over the weekend and it stank. We talk about some famous movie mistakes. Lydia from Ocean side calls up and adds nothing. Finally, Sam comes in to host After O&A Live. [Broadcast Date: April 18, 2011]
Explicit Language Warning: You must be 18 years or older to purchase this program.

Variscite is called a "true worry stone." Learn more about its crystal meanings and metaphysical properties.
Variscite is a soothing stone. It is sometimes called a "true worry stone" because it eases fear, tension, anxiety, worry, and impatience. It also relieves stress and depression, and can give courage and inner strength, engendering self-reliance.
Variscite can help calm the mind and help it be still, which makes it an excellent stone for meditaiton. Variscite can be a benefit for intuition and psychic perceptions, and is excellent for past-life recall.
Physically, variscite is used in crystal healing for helping strengthen cells and tissues, blood problems, nervous system, kidneys, muscles and bones. It is also used for male reproductive healing, including impotence. Note that healing crystal meanings are spiritual supports to healing and are not prescriptions or healthcare information.

HAMMOND — The No. 3-ranked Southeastern Louisiana football team held its first scrimmage of fall camp under the lights Saturday night at Strawberry Stadium.
Both sides of the ball had good moments in the nearly 70-play scrimmage. The Lion offense accumulated 326 yards, while the Southeastern defense forced stops on nine of the 16 drives.
Quarterbacks Bryan Bennett, Jordan Barnett and D'Shaie Landor combined to complete 16 of 29 passes for 197 yards. Landor completed a 25-yard pass to senior Chris Briggs for the first touchdown. Twelve receivers caught passes with junior Byron Johnson (two catches, 42 yards), sophomore Jarrell Bennett (two catches, 41 yards) and senior Chris Malott (scrimmage-long 30-yard reception) among the standouts.
SLU rushed for 129 yards, led by freshman Julius Maracalin (12 carries, 55 yards) and junior Kody Sutton (seven carries, 41 yards). Sutton broke off a 29-yard touchdown run, while Barnett and Bryan Bennett also ran for TDs.
On defense, senior safety Tyler Stoddard and junior linebacker Herbert Harris led the way with six tackles each.
Harris and freshman linebacker Sean Clavelle were each credited with a forced fumble. Senior linebacker Kaleb Muse and junior linebacker Dereck Robinson were each credited with two tackles for loss.
The Southeastern kicking game also had a strong night, as senior Ryan Adams was a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals, connecting from 39, 35 and 33 yards. Adams also made both of his extra points.
Adams was not the only new special teams starter to have a standout performance, as junior Tim Callian averaged 49.3 yards per punt with a long punt of 52 yards. Freshman Brody Hay had the long punt of the night, rolling a 55-yard punt out of bounds inside the 5-yard line.
Southeastern will practice under the lights for the final time during fall camp at 7:30 p.m. Sunday. The defending Southland Conference champion Lions will open the season versus Jacksonville at 7 p.m. Aug. 30 in Strawberry Stadium.

Just did some more tests and I found that the issue was the amount of text I was adding. If I add a sentence it saves fine. When I add everything I want I still get the 405.
Charlie's on it
Hi folks,
As promised, here's an update on the Item Support tab we'll be launching to customers shortly, which has been reworked based on feedback and a steady flow of coffee. Please also see my recent update where we discussed updates to the settings screen, including allowing you to define support in your own words, giving you more room to write, and basic HTML.
Here's the changes we've made to the Item Support tab since the initial post and first screenshot:
- Improved the "intro" text to be a bit more general to all items, introduce the basic concepts, and be a bit softer in tone
- Removed our definition of support — the green box contains a quick summary of how you want to provide support (external URL, etc) and the text that you provide us
- For WordPress themes, we've added in a new section above the FAQs titled "Common WordPress installation Issues" which tackles the very common "Missing stylesheet" error on installation. If this works well, we can tackle other common questions for other kinds of items too.
- Improved the "outro" text with a link to Envato support, softer in tone, etc.
We're still tidying up a few loose ends, but this should ship in the next 24 hours. For those with feedback that we haven't addressed yet, please feel free to chime in — we intend to revisit this and keep iterating after it launches.
^ Awesome!
This is looking great! Can't wait for it to launch!
Really looking forward to this, great work guys!
Great update , thanks envato team …

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Excellent location on top of the cliffs. Nice spacious room, nicely decorated in African lodge-style, spacious bathroom with bath (also for standard room). The bed was very good. Lovely surroundings. Very quiet in the evenings and at night. Nice little garden to relax in by the hotel. Close to lovely villages like le Treport. Possibility to make nice walks up the cliffs, beach and in the forest. The excellent location and room make this hotel well worth the visit. The quality of the food in the restaurant was okay but not excellent. For the high prices you'd expect better food. Breakfast at €16 a person too expensive. No fridge or minibar in the room. No other restaurants available in Bois de Cise.
The location and view was fantastic, as was the food. In the neighbourhood there are some very nice places to visit (Ault, St. Valery and Dieppe).
The bedroom was a delight Having to wait 5 minutes for the 4th main course to arrive, why did the kitchen not hold back the other 3
The location is beautiful and easily accessible from Calais. We were in an executive double room which was a good size with an excellent view over the sea from double glass doors. There was a balcony but it provided the only access to three rooms, so it was not private. The people next door had to walk through our bit to get into their room. They were very discreet and tried not to look into our room - but we needed to close the curtains sometimes! The decor was light and bright and the shower was great. Staff were friendly and did their best to accommodate us especially when our phone and WIFI didn't work. We arrived just as the restaurant had stopped serving lunch. People were still eating so we asked for a drink - we hadn't stopped on our journey from Calais. We were told no, as this was a restaurant not a bar. We went for a walk as our room wasn't ready, to see if we could get a drink, but there is nothing in the area. When we got back the waiter, who showed us to our room said the nearest place to get a drink was 15 minutes away. (It is actually a 5 minute drive). I speak French so he hadn't misunderstood. We asked for room service and he said he would send his colleague to us. Nobody came and the phone in our room did't work, so we went out and didn't bother with hotel services again. Reception was manned by staff doubling up jobs.
The hotel was beautifully located on the cliff overlooking the gorgeous panaramic view of Le Cise bay which is completely stunning! We took the Junior suite and after a hard cycle from Honfleur we arrived to find a bottle of champagne chilling in the room which was a real treat! We enjoyed a really gourmet, fabulous dinner that evening and a tasty breakfast to stoke us up for the days cycle ahead (we were working our way from Cherbourg to Calais). The hotel room was picturesque and really modernly decorated - very aesthetic! Looking forward to a return visit! The staff were generally very nice and chatty and helpful a few though were not.

Is this all there is?
Saul Alinsky would be ashamed.
Obama's campaign has relented and is now bargaining for only five years of Romney's tax returns?? How lame.
Barack Obama, middle name, Hussein, has been asking, no, DEMANDING Mitt Romney supply the past ten years of IRS records, records Obama could get with the snap of his fingers.
The purpose of the demand is to falsely smear Mitt Romney as a tax cheat or elitist – as so many Obama Administration officials and supporters have been proven to be.
As I have written previously, I believe the Democrats running Obama's re-coronation campaign already have Mitt Romney's past records and are in pants-wetting mode from the inability to use them. If Romney doesn't cave in and give the Democrats in the Obama campaign cover to use the records they will be exposed as having stolen them. And no one of sound mind would argue that is above the Obama team. Let's at least admit that.
And so Harry Reid went rogue with rage at not being able to smear Mitt with his stash. Reid has a secret admirer with the Romney records – we are almost there.
Romney has to stay above the Democrat Communist Party plan and campaign away in his own style.
Everyone knows Obama has a Social Security number from a state he never lived in and he can not explain why until after the chance he gets re-coronated. Romney should have surrogates drop that bomb, over, and over, and over.
The standard Alinsky smear campaign is not even taking hold, let alone working in 2012 and you can see it in the crazy eyes of the left on TV every evening.
The left wing, communist wing, of the Democrat party is in complete panic mode resulting from the loss of donations and adoring crowds they enjoyed when their charade worked in 2008.
Those days are over outside of college campuses and elementary schools.

They just out-played us in the second half.
They were killing us with the reverses. I mean, that's what hurt us; a lot of guys were staying at home and just weren't playing fundamental football. It is just basics, and we didn't play basic football and that is why we lost.
A lot of things we were giving them, because we weren't staying at home, we weren't playing just basic fundamentals. That will get you beat, every time in the fourth quarter.
It's a gut check. Last week, I thought that would wake a lot of guys up and get them ready to play. Obviously that didn't work. What we are we going to from now. We have to step up.
It is devastating. I mean it's a tragedy. We didn't need to let it get that close.
I can't believe it right now. They scored thirty-two points in the second half on us.
Guys weren't just doing their assignments, the coaches were putting us in a position to makes plays, and we were missing tackles, just basic football.
When you get beat and you are out-schemed and out-coached, there is not much you can do about it. But when you are put in a position to make a play and you don't make, then that falls upon yourself and you have to assume responsibility.
You have to credit
Adam Metts
This just goes to show you that this is a sixty-minute game, anything can happen, and you have to play to the end.
Everybody was kind of surprised at first when they scored their first fourteen points. But we came back and scored again, so we thought we would be able to battle it out with them.
And then they just kept scoring.
Then that incident down there in the end zone. We were three-and-out, and couldn't get anything to muster up towards the end. Bad snap or whatever.
That kind of hurt, but we then were coming back again.
We were moving the ball well. They brought a couple blitzes; we got them, we got the ball off. I thought we had a shot to get a good field goal. Jeff Reed is a great kicker. I thought we were going to about to pull this one out. I mean honestly, everybody did. Offensively we were motivated to go out there and play.
David Thornton
Our offensive team is playing so much better right now. You definitely feel that with 24-points, with our defense, the talent that we have as unit, you don't think that anyone would be able to come back and overcome such a deficit.
But you know, like I said, it is sixty-minute season ballgame. You got to play hard; you got to play fast for sixty minutes.
It has been a roller-coaster. Down in beginning, we got up in the middle, and now it seems like in November it is like we are slipping; it is like we are beating ourselves, jumping offsides. Pretty much just stupid penalties that are just hurting our team.
What we have to do is just keep fighting and remember what we did when we were on that five-game win streak, how we played for sixty minutes, and don't give in to the grind; and let up at any point in the ballgame. It is a sixty minute game, you got to give it all you got each play, every rep.
Football is simple. Know your alignments, know your responsibilities, and get it done.
I definitely feel like our offense had a chance to get a drive going. Things happen; that the special teams play, I don't even know what happened. I don't know where it went.
It's football, it's a complete game. We just got to keep fighting and bounce back.
I don't know if [Bunting] was mad or angry. He think he was so disappointed and heartbroken by this loss, because it has got to hurt anybody that has a passion and a love for this game to see this one slip away, it has to hurt.
We have a great team, the talent, the skill, it is all there we just have to play hard and play together.

2006 Mercury Mariner Hybrid Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2006 Mercury Mariner Hybrid based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
2Known Problems
The hybrid models have a coolant pump that cools control electronics. The pump can fail or spin slowly, which causes a Check Engine Light to illuminate and complete engine shut down.
Hard driving conditions, including quick starts from a stop and hard acceleration up hills, can cause the rear motor mount to crack. The broken motor mount needs to be replaced, otherwise damage to the hybrid drive system may result.

Grey s Anatomy Season Finale
May 21, 2010 by Post Team
Grey s Anatomy Season Finale:Grey `s Anatomy is the 6th season as Final? Grey's Anatomy had 6 seasons of interesting episodes, is a pain to stop. Grey `s Anatomy Season 6 has some episodes of the grid do not want to lose. Why only one: the progress of the sixth season that was missing. Some episodes here, however, began to see a little more willingly, and when you started watching the series (in bed recovering from surgery, an intense episode after episode). GREY'S And so once again claim a place in my heart, especially with this How Insensitive (season 6, episode 21). A brief scene drew tears from me – and no, actually not cry for anything on TV. My husband can testify to that, Mila does not melt margarine. The case of the week was a man of 300 pounds that he could not get out of bed. Dramatic, but not sad enough to move spontaneously. While I was eating soup while watching the episode (in this case in the south of Aceh ta tori cold!) And Karev drowned when the jokes finally abandoned and in fact advised the man to make way in life. Called the face of cowardly and selfish, and oh! It was hard to get off the juice. Strong emotions. Grey `s Anatomy Season 6 continues to surprise with each episode.
Grey `s Anatomy Season 6 has touched me and was much more simple. The history of the emergency room did not seem to cede. The case was secondary: the woman arrived with a seemingly simple problem and went straight to a heart surgery. Yang, Pee life, I had to babysit for a girl of nine years (when all that the surgeon can not wait to attend the event.)
And then, friends, began to squeeze her throat when she had surgery to operate the child's mother, who by then was desperate fear. The same respect was the brief scene in which Yang, tough all, it was sensible and spoke to the pasture beyond belief. I've never seen anyone explain the death of one so gentle and yet true. Let `s hope that Grey` s Anatomy Season 6 is not the end of the series.

Cassidy Ryan – Tight Lil Nerd
Released: February 18, 2015
Cassidy is a nerd who dresses like a school marm, but under those frumpy clothes and big glasses she's actually a hot-bodied teen who's ripe for the fucking. In this scene, she lets a bad-boy jock plow her slit with his girthy pole. The stud's cock fills her pussy completely, rubbing up against her inner walls and stretching them to the max, glistening with her pussy juices every time he pulls out. Not being used to taking such a hung guy, Cassidy moans and gasps while letting him take control. Watch this lil' nerd get stretched and creamed!

PinstripesPlus.com: Was there a pitcher or two that stood out for you in camp this past Spring Training?
Nardi Contreras: Dellin Betances was very good. He jumps out. He seems like he has understood his arm slot now and he was throwing the ball really well. He threw the ball well [in his last outing] to get his first win in the low-A ball league, getting out of the rookie leagues. He's throwing his changeup, he's throwing the ball downhill, he's keeping the ball down, he's throwing with some real nice velo [velocity], and with the big hammer that he has. It was very good to see him pitching like that and he did that in the Dominican Republic. Now the finishing touch is getting that slot. He came in early and got that slot, and now it looks like he's clicking.
PinstripesPlus: Talk about Jairo Heredia. The last time we spoke you said all he really needed to do was get innings. What did you see from him in Spring Training and how encouraged are you with him making the jump to the South Atlantic League?
Contreras: He controls the fastball, he throws strikes with his fastball and he's got that power curveball. Now he's developing his changeup. He can pitch now with two pitches but he's going to need that third pitch and that's what he's going to be working on. He throws strikes with his fastball and curveball. I think he'll be able to compete in Charleston while he's developing the changeup. That's where he's at and we want to make sure he works on that quick-step to deliver the ball home with runners on base in a quicker mode. He's throwing a little bit harder this year than he did last year and that's always a positive. I don't know how high he's going to go because he's going to get bigger and stronger. With more strength and size, I'm sure the velo is going to come even more, but what he's going going is he can throw strikes and he's got a tremendous curveball that he can throw for strikes. The development of the changeup, that's what we're looking for right now.
PinstripesPlus: Sticking with the Charleston theme for right now, talk about Zach McAllister. The big thing late last year was he didn't have his changeup and slider on par with his fastball - how about those two pitches right now?
Contreras: They're coming along really well. He has shown some quality sliders and quality changeups. He's just got to remember that he's got to use the same arm speed with his slider and changeup as he does with his fastball, not to slow down his arm with his two offspeed pitches. If he does that, he's going to do really well. But if he slows down his arm he's going to be telling everybody in the ballpark that he's going to be throwing something offspeed. He's just got to trust it and he showed this spring the same way he did it in the Dominican Republic, that he has it. Now he's got to use it and trust it on a consistent basis.
PinstripesPlus: A guy who seemed to be pretty impressive in camp was Wilkins De La Rosa. We all know he's got the power arm, but he seemed to have gotten his secondary pitches much better. Talk about the development of his secondary pitches in particular.
Contreras: It's the same thing with De La Rosa. He's got the power arm, he's got the slider and he's got the changeup, but what he does - just like I was saying with McAllister - he'll slow down his arm at times to make sure he throws them for strikes instead of using his arm speed. When you slow down your arm you're just telling everybody 'here comes something offspeed'. His development is the same way - his delivery is good and he's got power in his arm, and he's just got to trust the offspeed when he throws his breaking ball and his changeup.
PinstripesPlus: Noel Castillo seems to pitch well every time he goes out on the mound. Talk about his development right now. Where is his game?
Contreras: He's got a power arm. He's got a quick arm, it's just lightning. I'm not going to put him in the same category as Joba Chamberlain, but Chamberlain has a very quick arm also. With Noel it just comes out so quick out of his arm that his fastball has a lot of life. His changeup is coming along real nice. He threw real well during Spring Training and his breaking ball is going to be a continuing development. He threw some good ones and he threw some bad ones, but that's where he's at right now. He's in Charleston to make sure he's going to develop those pitches. He's got a great arm with that fastball but he needs to develop the offspeed pitches. The changeup is ahead of the breaking ball right now. It's a breaking ball - I don't call it a slider or a curveball - it's a breaking ball. I don't like the word slurve because when people talk slurve, they're talking about something that's very hittable. I just call it a breaking ball, like Chase Wright's is a breaking ball, Phil Coke now has a breaking ball, etc.
PinstripesPlus: Talk about J. Brent Cox. I know he's still down there in Extended Spring Training, but he looked pretty good pitching in regular Spring Training. Where do you think his game is right now?
Contreras: 'Coxy' has come along real nice. He's down at the knees where he's always been, he's down there with a lot of sink, and he's got a big league quality breaking ball. When he misses, he missed down. His arm feels good and now we're giving him innings that way we can get him out of here, out of Extended Spring Training and back to playing some real baseball somewhere. Most likely it's going to be in Tampa where it's still warm.
PinstripesPlus: Angel Reyes is back in Extended Spring Training too. Is that more performance related or is that more injury related?
Contreras: Angel Reyes has everything it takes to pitch in the big leagues. It's just consistency. He's just got to learn he doesn't have to power everything. If he just stays within himself - he's got a power arm, a power curveball - [the other day] he made it look real easy. He pitched an inning and there was no contest. He tried to power up on one ball and it went to the backstop just about. He's just got to get it into his brain that he doesn't have to try and use his body to throw the ball hard. His arm speed and velocity comes from his arm with a smooth delivery and it's going to jump out of his hand. He learns that no matter how many times we tell him, he's just going to have to do that himself. Whenever that's accomplished this kid's got the chance to pitch in the big leagues because he's got big league stuff.
PinstripesPlus: Christian Garcia developed a little bit of sore shoulder there in his last Spring Training outing. Is that something we should be concerned with or is that more of a minor stumbling block?
Contreras: Yeah it's minor. [Saturday] he [started] playing catch again. It happens to a lot of young kids once they've had an injury or something, they feel something and there's always a concern that they don't want to get hurt again. That's what it turned out to be. It was nothing. He's had some rest and now he's throwing again. I don't think it's going to be a prolonged thing because he was ahead when he felt something so he doesn't have to start from the beginning anymore. He's going to be somewhere in the middle as we get him closer to be able to compete at a different level.
PinstripesPlus: How was he looking in your opinion before that?
Contreras: Oh he was awesome. He was just awesome. He was downhill - in fact Scotty Aldred [Trenton pitching coach] uses his delivery to show all the pitchers on how a delivery should be. So mechanically he's sound, the changeup he has developed is awesome, the curveball we know is awesome, and the arm strength and the life that he has - it's going to be a matter of time when everything starts clicking and you'll see him in the big leagues.
PinstripesPlus: Talk about Arodys Vizcaino. He looked very impressive in the Dominican but he looked even more relaxed on the mound this past Spring Training. Did you see that as well?
Contreras: Yeah Vizcaino is getting more and more comfortable. He had a tremendous bullpen [on Friday] as we're getting his delivery down. He was throwing a little more side to side, now he's learning to go more north and south, getting his curveball to go more south, getting his pitches to come downhill, and he's working on the development of his changeup. The kid's 17 years old and he's got a tremendous arm. He's got a plus curveball. He's a kid who listens and he learns. It doesn't take him long, which is real positive when you get some kids from the Dominican Republics, and he's going to be a good one.
PinstripesPlus: Talk about Lance Pendleton. He pitched pretty well there in Spring Training and he broke with Charleston. How happy are you with his development right now?
Contreras: I'm really happy. You know this is really going to be his first full year. We're just going to keep him healthy. He didn't pitch much at all last year in real baseball. He's going to piggy-back at Charleston. He's going to pitch every three days and that's how we're going to take care of him, pitch him three innings with three days of rest in between so he can get a little bit of work in. Whenever there's a day off he'll be pitching on the fifth day, so he'll get his work in without being overused in any way, especially after not pitching for a couple of years.
PinstripesPlus: Talk about Mark Melancon in Spring Training - what did you see from him?
Contreras: What I saw from Melancon was he's a big league pitcher. He's just gaining arm strength. He's got three pitches going. The changeup came in the Dominican Republic, he developed that so quick to go along with both of his fastballs - the four-seam and the two-seam - and he's got a big-time plus curveball. He throws strikes too. Now we've just got to keep him pitching and get him innings to get him some arm strength, and then we'll see how far he goes.
PinstripesPlus: We all know that Ivan Nova has the great stuff but we talked about his pitch-ability after last season. Did you see him make strides with his pitch-ability in Spring Training where he was expanding the zone and setting up batters more? What's your outlook for him this season?
Contreras: Yes I think he's matured and I think he's learning to do those things more than just throwing strike after strike. He needs to pitch inside, he needs to expand the zone, and just assert himself more because it comes just so easy out of his arm that he feels just because he can throw strikes he thinks he's going to get people out. Once guys learn how to read his pitches more and get on his velocity and stuff, he's going to have to make some changes. He's got to make sure he pitches in and he's got to keep batters honest by expanding the zone. That's all going to be learning process. He has the pitches and now it's the pitch-ability he has to learn how to work into his repertoire.
PinstripesPlus: I didn't get to see him at all this spring, but what did you see from Ryan Pope?
Contreras: Ryan Pope is a kid that is a pitcher. He can go to both sides of the plate with both fastballs, he has a changeup now that he developed during the Instructional League, and he's got a curveball. He also does have a slider that he's going to break out here whenever he wants to. I gave our pitching coach 'Pav' the freedom that whenever he wants to start using his slider that he can. I believe that was the pitch he used out of college more than the curveball. We've developed the curveball so now he can start using his slider also. The kid's going to throw strikes. You're going to have to hit him to beat him, he changes speeds, and he has a lot of pitch-ability.

My childcare philosophy: I worked outside the home when my oldest two children were toddlers and have had my own personal experiences with daycare centers that were available to working parents. When we decided to have our third child, I found myself wanting to fix the issues I had found with baby factory daycares. As such, I started my own safe and loving home daycare for all children, from birth on up. In my home daycare, I created a childcare solution by combining the best of all childcare options: · Daycare Centers: socialization (multiple families) and structured daily schedules (meals and naps); · Home Daycare: comforts of a home, lower costs, and lots of love; · Nanny: consistency of one provider, field trips and individualized care and planning; · Babysitting: offering "date-night" care for the parents to re-connect while having their children in a familiar and safe environment. I use park districts and field trips as a way to add additional stimulation to the childrens day. I have had both a large and a small home daycare. In the past I have worked as a full-time private nanny, in order to give more personalized and engaging stimulation to the children. I offer a less structured "date-night" option during the evenings and weekends. I have taken many children, in my care, on vacations as well as provided care for other untraditional hours. I am currently interested in returning to a full-time private nanny position. I believe that children learn best through play. I play with the children and like to keep them engaged. Some of my favorites are; hugs, tickles, singing, coloring, playing with play-dough, reading, dancing, participating in classes, etc. I encourage mastery of new skills such as holding a bottle, rolling over, sitting, walking, jumping, recognizing letters and numbers, learning shapes and colors, introducing beginning math and reading skills, etc. I am able to provide age appropriate activities for multiple age groups at one time, while insuring each child receives the individual love and attention they crave. I have awesome references from families for whom I currently and have previously worked. I provide for all of the daily needs of the children in my care. I love to provide ample hugs, smiles and encouraging words. I prepare bottles, track foods being introduced, offer balanced meals and encourage self-feeding. I track diaper changes, teach toilet training skills and hand washing. I have years of experience using breast milk, formula, cloth diapers and disposable diapers. I have my own 2014 SUV and have a perfect driving record. I have been CPR and First-Aid certified many times. I will gladly agree to a background check or provide a copy of one already completed. In addition, I have no problem with any other tests or checks such as drug, driving, Social Security number verification, physical, etc. I am willing to complete any additional training courses recommended by parents. All classes, tests and checks will be the financial responsibility of the requesting parents.

My past childcare experience: Hello, I am a mother, grandmother, family assistant, doula and a childcare provider, house manager, and a nanny. I completely understand how daunting a task it can be to find the PERFECT childcare match for your precious child. I am looking for a great family to offer my nanny services to. I am currently looking for a full-time position as a nanny. My hours are based on the needs of my clients. As a mom, I understand that the needs of a family can be ever changing. I have had families that only used my part-time hours during the evenings and weekends. I have had families that only used my full-time business hours. I have had some families that used both. I am very flexible when it comes to the hours I am available. My Experience: I organize and engage children in age appropriate activities, keep them safe, and clean up after them. This includes structuring their day, scheduling classes and field trips, playing, laughing, coloring, singing, etc. I prepare healthy meals, teach manners and transport them to and from classes. In addition, I care for children during my off hours. I have had my own home daycare for years. In the past, I have been a private nanny, provided childcare at my church, I worked part-time at a public daycare, I have tutored in math and I have been a Girl Scout leader. I have cared for children with physical and learning disabilities, moderate and severe allergies, multiples, preemies, infants, toddlers and school age. I currently work part-time with Birthways as a postpartum doula and volunteer with Chicago Volunteer Doulas as a labor doula. Families are my passion.
Additional Comments: My objective: I am looking for a family that will be a great match for me, as well as to be the best childcare match for your family. My idea of a perfect match: · I am looking for a family that shares my belief that our children are the most important of all, in this world. I have three daughters. My daughters are 21, 20, and 11 and are all in school or living on their own. My daughters are wonderful assistants and offer baby-sitting services. My granddaughters are 8 months and 2 years old. They love play-dates! · I am looking for a family that would like to have long-term nanny. I believe that it is very important for children to feel safe in a stable environment. I believe that children develop a strong bond with their childcare provider and babysitters. I believe when children know that their environment is stable, they feel safe to learn and explore, knowing that they can fall back on this stability. · I am looking for a family that recognizes my years of experience as a childcare provider, a nanny, a mother, a grandmother, a doula and a babysitter. I want to work for parents that look to me for suggestions and ideas to complement their own. I would like to work for families that believe in open communication, even when it is hard. I think contracts and job out-lines are great tools. I would be a complement to your family by being a reliable, flexible, trustworthy, honest, devoted, loving, and caring provider. I would like to work for families that value having wonderful childcare. I aim to be that. I am fortunate to be able to make a decision about this match based on a connection between your family and me, not financial reasons. I believe, as a parent, we do not want to put a dollar amount on the care for our children, as that does not always buy us quality anyway. I think as a provider, we do not want to give the impression that this is where our priorities lie. I believe that my volunteer hours and my off hours-home daycare show my commitment and love for what I do. I believe my references and work history speak clearly about where my priorities are. I believe that payment is one way a family can show their appreciation. I believe every child is a miracle and would be honored to have the responsibility of caring for your little angel. Thank you for spending a few minutes of your day to get to know me! I love my job and would enjoy hearing from you.
