Find info concerning Cameron University registered nurse training, and registering for elective discussion sections and seminars. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? As a registered nurse (RN), not only can you earn a good salary, but also will be helping people at the same time. Request more information about accredited nurse training programs. Concentrating on Cameron University registered nurse training, for example, you may gain an advantage in job recruiting on-campus. Check with the RN department for course registration deadlines, and registered nurse program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Cameron University.
To become a Registered Nurse(RN), you will be required to take courses in medical terminology, patient care and life sciences. Although associate degree programs provide students with adequate nursing training, a bachelor's degree provides greater clinical exposure and a stronger general education. A 4-year BSN program allows students to study specialized areas of nursing, including pediatrics, geriatrics and mental health nursing. An RN has to cope with more responsibility, and must oversee the work of LPNs and CNAs under their supervision. If you wish to continue advancement, a masters degree and several years of experience as a nurse, may qualify you for the Nurse Practitioner (NP) credential. Nursing job openings are projected to grow 16 percent over the coming decade, much faster than the average for all occupations. The average salary for nurses with an Associates degree was $43,700 in 2017, while nurses with a Bachelors degree earned $67,490 per year.
Certification requirements include board certification by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) and the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP). The license period varies by individual state, but is usually valid for either two or three years, at which time you'll need to renew. Registered nurses (RNs) are not required to be certified in a particular specialty by state law. For example, it isn't necessary to be a Certified Medical-Surgical Registered Nurse (CMSRN) to work on a hospital Medical-Surgical (MedSurg) floor, and most MedSurg nurses are not CMSRNs. To keep your license current, you must take continuing education courses, and renew your license every few years. There are a fixed number of credits that each state requires, and if you work in a hospital facility, these courses may be offered on-site. Beyond major requirements within the RN department, you may consider Saint Augustines University forensic toxicology as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

"Vincent Cianni's photographic essay on gays in the military contributes to the recognition that real people with valuable skills and experience — indistinguishable from their straight counterparts and not some stereotype gay bogeyman — compose those serving on active duty and in the reserves. This book will thus take its place among the documentary evidence of a significant milestone in our nation's military history; equality for gays and lesbians in the nation's armed forces."
Joseph Rocha , Washington, D.C. 2010 Master-at-Arms Petty Officer 3rd Class, U.S. Navy, 2004-2007K-9 Unit Dog Handler. Honorable Discharge after coming out to his commanding officer; suffers PTSD from years of abuse, hazing and humiliation.
As the Human Rights Commission attests, the U.S. military has a long history of human rights abuses against homosexuals resulting in lost careers of servicemen and women many of whom are highly skilled, well educated, patriotic, courageous, and productive.
Vincent Cianni (born 1952), a documentary photographer whose work explores community, memory, and the human condition, made a series of road trips across the United States to interview and photograph approximately 100 gay and lesbian U.S. military veterans and active-duty service members. His mission was to document how the military's ban on openly gay and lesbian service personnel, which ended just two and a half years ago, impacted on their careers in the armed forces and their personal lives afterwards.
Matt McCary, Orange Park, FL 2011Airman 1st Class E-3, U.S. Air Force, 1998-2000Intelligence Specialist. Honorable Discharge; put under arrest after being singled out by co-worker; discharged within five days with no investigation David Cochenic, Orange Park, FL 2011Chief Petty Officer E-7, U.S. Navy, 1992 – PresentField Medical Service Technician, Aerospace Medical Technician. Received Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal and Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal.
The culmination of Cianni's intense three-year journey is Gays in the Military (Daylight Books, May 2014) which brings together over fifty intimate portraits and testimonies of individuals and couples who openly share their compelling, moving, sometimes harrowing stories of the harassment, discrimination and indignities they endured as gay and lesbian veterans and service members. Many of the interviews presented in this book took place while the ban was still in place that is a testament to the trust that Cianni established with his subjects.
The age range of the servicemen and women in Gays in the Military spans sixty years. They served in World War II, Vietnam, the Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, stateside, and in the reserves. Many attained high rank, received numerous medals, and held top-level jobs. The civil rights violations many of them suffered oftentimes prohibited them from receiving the benefits accorded them for serving in the military. The stigma associated with such punishments based on sexual orientation was worse when a man or woman returned to civilian life unable to find a job that matched his or her skills. These gay men and women spent their entire military careers living under the threat of being "outed" and discharged. In order to hide and live a lie, many repressed their emotions and denied themselves basic human intimacies.
Paul Goercke, San Francisco, CA 2012 Messman/Staff Officer, U.S. Merchant Marines, 1944-1945
World War II Veteran. Served in Okinawa, Ie-Shima Island, Hawaii and Saipan
The book presents three insightful essays that shed light on the cultural, personal and political consequences of the ban on homosexuality.
Alison Nordström is Senior Curator of Photographs at George Eastman House. She writes about Cianni's powerful portraits and the role of photography as an "exercise in witnessing and truth telling." She places his work in the tradition of the documentary photography of Lewis Hine and Walker Evans.
Alan M. Steinman, MD was a Rear Admiral, U.S. Public Health Service and U.S. Guard from 1972 to 1997. Retired, he came out publicly in 2003 on the tenth anniversary of 'Don't ask, don't tell' (DADT). He remained "in the closet" the entire time he was in service. He writes about the history of the laws and policies banning gays and lesbians from serving in the military, describing them as "deliberately draconian."
Lt. Donald R. Bramer writes about the challenges of living under the 'Don't ask, don't tell' policy which lasted from 1993 to 2011 while maintaining a relationship with his partner, who was also in the service, with the long separations and the emotional toll of carrying the "burden of silence and invisibility each day that we served. We fought harder and trained harder just to wear the uniform with the same distinction as those around us."
Debra Fowler, Lowell, MA 2013 Specialist, U.S. Army, 1986-1988Korean Linguist. Defense Language Institute Soldier's Award; Dishonorable Discharge, fraudulent entry; outed when being investigated for top-secret security clearance
Donald R. Bramer, Washington, D.C., 2011Lieutenant (jg) O2, U.S. Navy, 2002 – PresentIntelligence Officer. Top Secret Security Clearance; multiple deployments to the Middle East; numerous medals and commendations from combat operations; provided anonymous testimony during the hearings to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Dustin Hiersekorn, Boise, ID 2011Private, U.S. Marine Corps Reserves, 2010Discharged for medical reasons after two weeks of enlisting. Zachary Werth, Boise, ID 2011 Specialist, Idaho Army National Guard, 2007-2010Medic. General Discharge Under Honorable Conditions; erroneous enlistment used as a smokescreen for homosexuality
Vincent Cianni is a documentary photographer whose work explores community, memory, and the human condition through image, text and audio. Cianni holds an MFA in Photography from the SUNY New Paltz and teaches photography at Parsons The New School for Design, and the International Center of Photography. The David M. Rubenstein Rare Book and Manuscript Library (Archive of Documentary Arts) at Duke University established a study archive to insure the preservation of all his documentary projects, including negatives, contacts and correspondence. We Skate Hardcore, an eight-year documentary project of inline skaters in Williamsburg, Brooklyn published by NYU Press and the Center for Documentary Studies in 2004, was awarded the American Association of University Press Best Book Design. A major survey of this work was exhibited at the Museum of the City of New York in 2006. His photographs have been exhibited and collected nationally at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the George Eastman House, and The Kinsey Institute for Sexual Research; and internationally in London, France, Brazil and Germany. His work has been published in The New York Times, DoubleTake, Aperture, The New Yorker, Photography as Activism; New York 400: A Visual History of America's Greatest City; and The Polaroid Book.

Thirty eight years I lived in Miami. I must admit that when the opportunity to move presented itself, I was excited. A new place, new people, different weather; Texas was going to be a great home! The only thing standing between me and a new pair of cowgirl boots was The Jensing's background screen. After 3 intense interviews, and a drug screen, all we were waiting for was for the background screening to clear for Plan A to be official.
One week passed, two weeks passed, and then a third and fourth week, and we were still in the waiting process. Meanwhile, the frustration level kept increasing. Just then we heard back, but not exactly from the company in Texas. Instead, a company that The Jensing had applied to 9 months earlier suddenly decided to call him in for an interview. The only problem was this job was in the wrong state; Florida…Tampa to be exact.
You see if I was going to make a move, I wanted it to be a BIG move…and you know what they say…
everything's BIGGER in Texas
Needless to say, I was not happy about the call and was really hoping that this would lead to a dead end.
No sooner had he gone in for an interview, when he was called in for a second one. The drug screening and background results came back in no time and before we knew it, we were moving; just not to the right place. Plan B was in full effect!
None of it made sense to me at the time. Nine months earlier! Really?!
Have you ever found yourself in a similar situation? You put all your eggs in one basket (basket A), only to have them crushed!
This is what I call a hostile takeover by Plan B.
Recently, it has occurred to me that in situations like this Plan B was always Plan A. Let me explain.
Lets' take Mary for example. Everyone is familiar with her; pure, virtuous, innocent. As great as all this sounds, I am sure that being the mother of the savior of this world was not Plan A for her. In fact what young girl ever dreams of becoming pregnant out of wedlock?
If Mary's Plan A was anything like your typical young girl, she was probably in between getting fitted for her wedding dress and deciding between chicken or beef for the reception. When all of a sudden Plan B came knocking at the door. Talk about a hostile takeover! Mary had no say so in the situation.
If you have read the rest of the story then you know what happens next. If you haven't then I warn you now *Spoiler Alert*!
She kicked?! She screamed?! She yelled?!
Actually, none of the above took place, instead she saw Plan B for what it really was; a Divine Interruption! It was her life lining up to the Word of God and that was enough for her.
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord, Be it unto me according to thy Word Luke 1:38
I wish I could say I have it all down packed like Mary did. I don't.
We have been living in Tampa for 2 years now and today I can honestly say that as much as I thought Plan B was a hostile takeover, today I see it for what it really was; a Divine Interruption!
I pray you are in a place where it doesn't take you 2 years to recognize the blessing in Plan B.
After all, Plan B was always Plan A!
What was Plan A for you and what Divine Interruption are you facing?

Sony CineAlta F55 4K RAW
The ultimate camera capture system would record every nuance of light and shadow from the image sensor, preserving every detail from every pixel for full exploitation in post-production. If you want the maximum flexibility that 4K and 2K RAW deliver, Sony's optional AXS-R5 Access Memory System recorder is a remarkable choice. Unlike some RAW systems, Sony's 16-bit linear capture preserves more tonal values than the human eye can differentiate. This is also the ideal match for the 16-bit linear ACES workflow. For simplified creation of offline proxies, the camera even provides simultaneous onboard recording to SxS® cards using the same start frame and stop frame as the RAW recording.

By Todd Matsumoto
Chris Reeve Knives have an excellent reputation for overall quality. Their prices are a bit high but that hasn't stopped customers from keeping these knives in short supply. I going to review one of the most popular lines from Chris Reeve Knives, the Sebenza.
Before going further, I'd like to give you quick rundown on the Chris Reeve story. Christopher Stanley Reeve was born on December 4, 1953 in Durban, South Africa. His profession was tool and die making.
As a youth, he raced motorcycles. Since he didn't have corporate sponsors, much of the work on his bike was done by himself.
In 1989, he and his wife moved to Boise, ID so he could pursue more interesting business opportunities. His first knife was an all metal model that was resistant to climate change.
Now back to the Sebenza. The Sebenza has an integral side-lock design. This means that one side of the handle is used to lock the blade when it's extended. In everyday use, I found this mechanism locked the blade in place like a bank vault. Compared to other, cheaper knives, the blade on the Chris Reeve felt solid like a fixed blade model.
The blade is made out of state of the art S30V that has been stonewashed. This steel has great edge holding abilities and the finish is well suited for this type of steel. Be very careful when you first get your Sebenza. The blade has been thoroughly sharpened at the factory and it's very sharp. It's much sharper than some of the other production folders that I've received.
The handle is made out of bead blasted titanium. It feels really comfortable in my hand and I have no fears of this handle slipping out of my hand. This knife has a tip up design. This means that when have your knife clipped to your pocket, the tip of the blade will be pointed up. Many people prefer this method because they feel they can access the knife quicker. But in the end, it's all a matter of personal preference. There's no right or wrong way.
In addition, a lanyard is attached at the end of the handle. Some lanyard snobs might scoff at this particular design but I found it made removing the knife from my pocket a little bit easier.
The action of the blade moving out of the handle was silky smooth. You don't want it so smooth that it opens up while it's still in your pocket. The Sebenza is easy to access without becoming a safety hazard. You can thank the phosphor-bronze washers for doing their job.
When you get your Sebenza, it will come in a white box with the Chris Reeve Sticker. Inside will be your knife, a certificate, and an allen wrench so you can disassemble your knife for cleaning and lubing.
Overall, this is great folding knife. Technically, it's a production folding knife but the quality matches that of any fine custom folder. The model I reviewed was the large left handed model with dual blue thumb lugs. There are numerous different models available. Some have complicated graphics and others have exotic inlays in the handle. If your tastes include damascus blades, Chris Reeve offers that option as well. If you're interested in a knife that's highly functional and beautiful, the Chris Reeve Sebenza will do the job rather nicely.

Inquiry is mandatory.

You can think about the past, plan for the future, but the only time you experience life is right here, right now-in this very moment. A Minute for Me helps you live this moment to its fullest. Maybe that is the ultimate exotic travel-the exploration of your own heart.

I have problem of pimples on my face there are only 2 to 3 pimples it get cured but after a few days it again come back and this happen frequently tell me the solution.
Acne or pimples is a common skin condition frequently seen in young individuals during teenage and youth years. This occurs mainly due to the action of hormones on the oil glands in the skin. The draining ducts of the oil glands get blocked and hence they are not able to drain the oil secretion. The oil and cells inside the blocked gland form a perfect environment for the growth of Propionibacterium acnes (the organism responsible for acne). Thus, it results in the formation of pimples or acne. Acne usually occurs on the face, chest, back, shoulders and neck. It is one of the most common skin conditions. Although acne is not a serious threat to the health, yet it can lead to scarring and disfigurement of the face that can have a significant impact on the patient. Acne is a dynamic conditions triggered by multiple factors such as hormones, food, climate, irregular lifestyle and stress. The homeopathic medicines for acne or pimples are chosen on the basis of the underlying causes and factors which lead to or increases acne. There are about 20 most common medicines to choose from, for acne. You can easily take an online consultation for further treatment guidance and permanent cure without any side effects.

Diet and lack of exercise are the two most important factors that contribute to obesity. While the modern day diet is becoming more and more full of fats, sweets and empty calories, it is becoming devoid of nutritious vitamins and minerals. The fibre content is also decreasing. One tends to stack up on junk food in an effort to take a quick bite while on the go. At the same time, physical activity is on the decline. One has increased access to vehicles and the need to walk or cycle is almost not present. Even for commuting short distances, one uses cars or two wheelers. All these things are readily contributing to this epidemic of obesity. When it comes to getting rid of the excess fat, one needs to work conscientiously and consistently on both the counts mentioned above. One's diet has to be altered so as to include more and more natural fruits and vegetables. Processed food and junk food should be cut down to the minimum. A daily exercise regimen needs to be adopted. Exercising for 30-40 minutes for a minimum of 5 days a week is necessary. Homeopathy helps by regulating the metabolic system of the individual. There are more than 100 medicines listed in the Homeopathic literature for obesity. It is a tough job selecting the right medicine for a particular patient. One needs to take into account a lot of things before selecting the right course of treatment. These things relate to other symptoms or conditions that may be present or the person may be suffering from. A lot of importance is given to the reason, if any can be found that stimulated weight gain. This reason could be a particular illness or an event or some psychological setback in life. The general reaction of the person to extremes of temperature, his or heating habits also need to be taken into account. You can easily take an online consultation for further treatment guidance and permanent cure without any side effects.

Health Query
Hello doctor me n my gf had a sex on 8 September. As I was not aware that I have injected inside or not. So I gave ger unwanted 72 next day But now she was having a date of 19 and till now she doesn't have periods. She is having cramps and back pain but bleeding is not there. What should we do now?
Homeopath, Jaipur
Edits: Dear lybrate-user First of all Do not worry about anything regarding the problem. Just to explain you a bit :- The initial days of second half of menstruation cycle [after the ovulation] carries the maximum chances of conception. If we make it 28 days cycle, then you may say that the last 14 days. Having said so, the time period carries the risk of pregnancy according to date you mentioned. But after giving the pill, it will be VERY UNLIKELY that she may get pregnant. And coming to your last point regarding not getting periods, sometimes the days might shift upto 7 days for periods to resume. So do not worry about this. Please note, delay in periods after I-pill/Unwanted 72 is a common and expected side effect. But JUST to remove your fear, you may get the pregnancy test of her anytime which is very simple. I suggest you stop worrying about it. Hope my explanation helped you to relax, Its pleasure helping you. Regards.

Alcohol &/or Drugs
The Vehicle Code book (available at any DMV officer for 3.00) codified in 1935 states the following under its Drinking and Alcohol section.
This section (232152) is the misdemeanor violation.
The difference between a misdeamnor and a felony is: misdeamnor driving under the influence charges means that the charge involved no injury or property damage and the penalty is up to 6 months in jail whereas a felony has injury and the penalty could be as much as up to one year in a state prison.
VC 23152: Alcohol and or drugs:
(a). It is unlawful for any person who is under the influence of an intoxicating beverage,
or under the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage or drug to drive a vehicle.
The problem immediately is what does "under the influence" mean?
The most common understanding of the term is when the person starts to stumble and fall, lose coordination, have slower reaction times, lose the ability to process information, experience visual impairments or go through personality changes.1
Standard Dictionary Definition.
Webster defines intoxicated as being 'elated', hardly a legal definition.
A legal definition, from 1970 states under the influence as:
person is under the influence of intoxicating liquor when as a result of drinking such liquor his physical and mental abilities are impaired so that he no longer has the ability to drive a vehicle with the caution characteristic of a sober person of ordinary prudence under the same or similar circumstances.
The second part of the vehicle code DUI law continues to state in addition to the above "under the influence" paragraph, a driver is also under the influence when:
Paragraph (b) of VC23152 states:
(b) It is unlawful for any person who has a .08 percent or more by weight to drive a vehicle.
This more exacting definition of what under the influence is was put in the vehicle code in 1982 and is considered "per se". When you are arrested for DUI and you must submit to a chemical test, the results of that test can be used as evidence in court. This is called presumptive or prima facie evidence. Technically, prima facie means "at first view." Legally, it means "adequate to establish the fact unless refuted" (proved wrong).
Illegal "per se" law means that no evidence other than the results of a properly obtained chemical test are required to convict the defendant. In other words, if your chemical test results are a .08 (and all else was legal i.e. stop, arrests etc.) your
considered under the influence according to California law.
Legal presumptions about levels of alcohol in the blood are stated in presumptions about under the influence are stated in another law VC 23155.

Mother and daughter bodies found
Police have found two bodies inside a car belonging to two Christchurch women missing since Thursday.
Detective Senior Sergeant Tony Hill said the bodies had not yet been formally identified but were likely to be those of Marilyn Zidich, 62, and her daughter, Selina Madden, 35.
Their vehicle, a grey Fiat Tipo hatchback, was found during a foot search in dense scrub this morning, about 70 metres below Dyers Pass Rd on the Christchurch side of the summit.
Police were working to recover the vehicle and bodies this afternoon.
Hill said the deaths would be reported to the coroner.
He thanked those who had contacted police with information and possible sightings of the missing car.
Helicopters had been involved in the search after the women were reported missing from their Belfast home on Thursday.
Senior Constable Sonya Lemmens has previously described the women as preferring their own company and to be at home.
"They have never been known to leave home for this length of time."
A female family member who lived with the women reported the disappearance to police, Lemmens said.
"They are very close and communicate with the other family member who lives with them," she said.

Our Treasure Chest Drawing Challenge is underway, and users are already off to the races with their shovels in hand, trying to take home the gold. We expect that users will once again surprise us with ways of drawing treasure chests that would never have occurred to us, but all the same we are posting a drawing tutorial as a source of guidance. This tutorial will take you through the drawing process step by step and show you some awesome tips and tricks on how to use the drawing features of PicsArt to your advantage.
For those who are on Android, don't forget to use the video export feature to instantly share video drawing tutorials when you are finished. Video Export records everything you draw and plays it back step by step as a video. Tag it with #picsart and #DCtreasurechest when you post it on YouTube.
Step 1: Draw the Outline
Draw a very rough outline of your treasure, then reduce the opacity, add a layer, and trace it with more precision. Repeat this process until you have a refined final outline, then delete previous outlines.
Step 2: Draw the Background
Add a layer all the way at the bottom for your background. This allows you to play with rich textures, and streaks of different tones. If its underwater, use deep blues, if its a cave use greys and browns.
Step 3: Add Colors
Add new layers to color in the elements of your drawing separately so that they don't interfere with each other. This also lets you deepen your perspective, as you can color the objects in the background in a lower layer and reduce opacity to make them seem faded in the distance.
Step 4: Lighting and Shading
Select streaky, translucent, or even spray brushes for light and shade. Use blacks and grey for spots in the shadows, but use brighter brushes in multiple colors for glimmering lit areas.
Step 5: Golden Glow
No treasure chest is complete without glowing gold. Customize your brush to a deep yellow, select a streaking pattern and reduce its opacity. Then add streaks of golden light in a new layer on top. Speckle objects around your treasure with dots of gold to draw reflections.

Bill and Hillary ClintonHillary Diane Rodham ClintonBiden slams Trump over golf gif hitting Clinton Overnight Cybersecurity: Equifax hit by earlier hack | What to know about Kaspersky controversy | Officials review EU-US privacy pact Overnight Tech: Equifax hit by earlier undisclosed hack | Facebook takes heat over Russian ads | Alt-right Twitter rival may lose domain MORE are headed to the first-in-the-nation caucus state of Iowa in September to headline retiring Sen. Tom Harkin's (D) annual steak fry.
Hillary Clinton's attendance at the event, sources confirmed to The Hill, marks the beginning of her fall campaign activities as she contemplates a run for the White House in 2016.
Clinton is one of Democrats' most in-demand campaign surrogates this cycle, with an unpopular President Obama persona non grata on the trail. With many in the party excited at the prospect of her potential presidential bid, her visits to the stump could pack a real punch.
The steak fry appearance also marks her first return to a state that was not kind during her last run for the presidency. Clinton posted a damaging third-place finish in the Iowa caucuses in 2008, a defeat she never recovered from as Obama began his march to the nomination.
Other potential 2016 Democratic hopefuls have already made appearances in Iowa, including Vice President Biden, who headlined the steak fry last year, and Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, who keynoted an Iowa Democratic dinner last month.
The fundraiser will benefit Democratic candidates across Iowa, including Rep. Bruce Braley (D), who is locked in a tough fight for Harkin's seat.
Hillary Clinton is also expected to raise money for the major Democratic campaign committees, and is likely to hit the trail for a number of other Democratic candidates facing difficult races.

I remember reading somewhere that Steve Carell has one of the best falsettos in the business; last night, we heard proof of that. Michael coming in on the high harmony on "Happy Birthday" ruled, for the lack of a better word. I also love the look on Andy's face every time Michael sings, and it's made more fun by the fact that I can't tell if it's Andy being awed by Michael or Ed Helms being awed by Steve Carell.
Anyway, if season three was all about Pam's growth – away from Roy, towards Jim but also just as a person in her own right, uncoupled – season four appears to be about Jim's journey. Unfortunately for him, said journey appears to be taking a different route.
Last season, when Jim became the official "Number Two" in the office, he promised to stop with the pranks, the jokes, the never taking anything seriously. His relationship with Karen could be seen as a part of that: Jim and Pam played pranks all the time, and it took a while before Jim had that kind of comfort with Karen. Note, however, that that comfort eventually developed, which means Jim went back to pranking people.
This week, being left in charge of the office while Michael was away on his vision quest-slash-NBC-mandated "green" story, Jim tried, once again, to be the boss, and the upshot was that the guy who organized the Office Olympics turned out to be as annoying as Michael and less fun. Super scary outcome, for Jim and the audience. Even scarier: the notion, presented in the kicker, that there's some method to Michael's madness. We already know Michael's kind of a salesman savant; last week, Stanley wondered if Michael might be some kind of crazy genius, and this week we see that Michael might actually know his employees better than Jim knows his co-workers. Spoooooky.
The best part? The fact that Pam knew the whole thing was going to crash and burn, and did nothing to stop it. The Pam & Jim thing may be the best resolution of any will-they-won't-they coupling in the history of television, because both characters are still interesting in their own right even though they're together. Pam is barely recognizable as the person she was in season one, and I love that they're acknowledging that with subtle touches like better clothes and sleeker hair for the character. Jim, on the other hand, is beginning to realize that getting the girl of his dreams isn't going to solve all his problems. He may not need to impress Pam anymore, but he still needs to figure out what he wants to do with his life.
As for the other half of the story, Michael's Survivorman take-off wasn't as brilliant a response to the "Green Week" thing as 30 Rock's use of David Schwimmer and Al Gore, but it was still pretty funny, if only because it let us see both Michael making a tent out of his pants, and finding out that Dwight keeps a blowgun in a toilet tank.

As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. Then get a copy of the schedule of classes, so you can plan a workable weekly schedule for yourself. Finally, check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Northeast Iowa Community College honors class information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Northeast Iowa Community College.
If you have a particular school in mind that is clearly your first choice, then early decision might work well for you. Please note that if you are accepted under early decision, you are making a commitment to attend that school, unless its financial aid package is inadequate. Usually, you can apply to only one school under the early decision program. If you're not accepted, you still have the option to apply to other schools later, during the regular application period.
Early action is similar to early decision, except that you aren't required to attend a school that accepts you. Some schools allow you to apply for early action while interested in other colleges, but some don't, so you need to request information from each school. Keep in mind that there is less incentive for an early action college to accept you because you aren't committing to attend the school. Beyond degree requirements such as Northeast Iowa Community College course registration, you may consider Malcolm X College major list for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Blessings in the Making
Blessings arrive in many forms. Some are easy to recognize and are happily accepted. For example, the birth of a healthy and extremely wanted baby or the marriage of two people who are very much in love. Other blessings are disguised and hard to recognize. Our desire to initially reject them is strong. For example losing a job or fighting an addiction.
As I age, I realize more and more that a "blessed life" doesn't always mean an easy life. Society's view of a "blessed" life can be unrealistic and make some of us feel like we are falling below the bar…..and blessings are so much more than this.
I've had days (and even years) when life just didn't seem to be going my way. Heartbreak, disappointment, and stress have all tempted me to lose hope.
Thanks to the internet I began to discover the talented writing of some incredible people sharing their private moments. I have read stories of joy, stories which include photos of nature's beauty, and stories of the love of family and friends. Truly these are blessings that are easy to recognize and accept.
Then there are stories of emotional or physical abuse, alcohol addiction, and unresolved issues which are all discussed with passion as well as cries for understanding, forgiveness, acceptance, and healing. Some of these stories have happy endings. A few of the writers have arrived at a place of peace in spite of the incredible pain they have endured. Some have been granted the "serenity to accept the things they cannot change." Some have realized that they have been given the opportunity to experience a blessing in the making.
I occasionally read a blog written by a young mother who has a special needs child. During her pregnancy she often wrote about her joy as she waited for the day her child would be born. She also compassionately wrote of the agonizing moment shortly after giving birth when she was told of the struggles that lie ahead. She speaks very candidly about her child (who is now about 10 years old) ~ the heartbreaks, the joyful moments found in the small things, and how much she has learned through her precious child.
Another blog I follow is written by a woman whose husband is declining due to Alzheimer. She writes of her journey as she learns how to cope with this dreadful disease. I so admire her determination to rise to this challenge and how she looks for and appreciates the joy she and her husband can still find in life.
Yet another blog I follow is written by a person who is battling alcohol addiction. Her moving stories of success and failure as she trudges through relapses, or speaks of the negative and positive changes in her life as a result of her choices, yet her faith stays strong. She speaks of the people from all walks of life she has met through this journey and how they have helped each other.
Yes, the journey's of each of these women are incredibly tough, but the deep love, the huge amount of inner strength they probably never knew they had, and joy they have found within themselves as well as in and through others are blessings that are continually in the making.
Making the choice to seek the presence of Christ among the trials instead of giving in to the temptation to grumble and sigh help me (in God's perfect timing) meet the challenges I encounter in my life. I seek clarity where there is obscurity and strength where there is weakness. Thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to watch You turn trials into (sometimes unexpected) blessings!
Psalm 9:1 – "I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart."
Isaiah 43:2 – "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you."
Pay it Forward
Once a week, during the school year, I treat myself to a special coffee or a pastry. Starbucks is one of the places I occasionally visit. This morning at the drive thru I asked the barista if I could also pay for the order of the person behind me. He smiled and happily said, "Of course!"
As I pulled away I glanced in my rear view mirror and hoped, that in that small way, I made someone's day a little better.
Has it ever crossed your mind that we really do have the power to make a difference?
Can it really be as simple as following our hearts, taking action, and paying it forward?
We may choose to blow off the ideas that come to our minds because we think they're silly or they won't matter, so why bother? Every time we rationalize away an idea, someone loses.
Life can get tough, it is not always fair, and people are not always nice. All it takes is a cross word or action from someone and my day can suddenly go from good to miserable.
When people feel good, they tend to do good. As people do good to others, chances are the receivers will also do good to others. This then creates a cycle of kindness and charitable acts.No matter how small, I believe each act has the power to turn someone's day around for the better.
Burden? A personal story
1 Timothy 5:4 "But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show godliness to their own household and to make some return to their parents, for this is pleasing in the sight of God."
I remember my mother saying she did not want to live long enough to be a burden to her children. As I age, I can relate to that statement more and more. I am accustomed to being the caregiver and the prospect of a role reversal is very disconcerting.
In the final years of my mother's life, my wonderful sister stepped up to the plate and welcomed Mom into her home. Mom was a widow and even though she did not want to give up the independence of living on her own, she understood the necessity of living with my sister. Mom terribly missed our dad; they were married almost 60 years. He died very sudden and unexpected and part of her went with him. She was sad and depressed and began spending a lot of time in her bed and just feeling out of sorts with the world. Mom began to slowly come back to us and, for a while, started to enjoy life again.
In addition to caring for our mother, my sister and brother-in-law owned and operated a very demanding business. Each weekend they would escape to their beach house for some well deserved rest and relaxation. They would occasionally offer to take my mom with them, but she would usually want to return to her own home to spend the weekend. My brother and I both work full-time during the week so we would alternate weekends and take turns staying with my mom at her house.
My brother and I treasured these weekends with Mom and appreciated the one on one time with her. We shared many conversations, took her to church, out to eat, and sometimes drove her around the town where she grew up so she could see the changes. We would often hear the same stories over and over, but it never bothered us at all. We just smiled to ourselves and kindly sat there as we watched her face shine as she relived her precious memories.
As time continued to pass Mom began to experience days of darkness. On these days her will to live was low, she wanted to be with our dad and she was sad and depressed. We believe our mom was beginning to suffer from dementia possibly even early stages of Alzheimer and as this disease slowly progressed it became extremely difficult for my sister to manage on a day-to-day basis. It was hard for all of us to watch this wonderful, loving, caring woman we loved so much become this person we were beginning to no longer recognize. My sister was becoming emotionally and physically drained and I can only imagine the effort it took to take care of my mom. After a while it became necessary to put her in an assisted living facility where mom lived for several months. Mom was not happy with this decision, but it did provide her with socialization and a reason to get out of bed in the morning. We were eventually able to move Mom to a private home right down the street from my sister in what turned out to be the final weeks of mom's life. We hired a 24/7 caretaker and my sister was able to see mom several times a day. Mom was comfortable and happy during these final weeks and died peacefully surrounded by her loving family. After four years she was finally with my dad.
Was Mom a burden to my sister?
My sister is the type of person who would view her service to my mom as a ministry or labor of love. M. was an example of never allowing the cares of the world to overshadow the things that are most important—serving God through serving people, especially the people in our own families. I am forever grateful to her for her devotion to our parents as they aged.
I don't know what the future holds for me, but it is my desire I will not live long enough to become a burden or labor of love to anyone.
Exodus 20:12 "Honor thy father and thy mother: that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God is giving you"
Once upon a time this quote was hanging in a spot where I could see it everyday. Over the years I lost track of it, but my dear husband came to the rescue and sent me a copy he had hanging in his office. I think it is an excellent read for people of any age and felt it worthy of sharing.
Savoring: Read Aloud
I never realized how much wisdom can be found in children's literature until I became an elementary school teacher.
Every year for the past ten years or so I read one of my all time favorites Charlotte's Web out loud to my class. If you have never read this story it is about the remarkable friendship between a spider and a pig.
I love to imitate the voices of the characters as I read this beloved tale. Glancing up from time to time, I marvel at how focused the children are and I often wonder how they are visualizing the scenes and characters in their minds. Their laughter or giggles at the antics of some of the characters are music to my ears.
The chapter called "Last Day" always chokes me up during the scene when Charlotte dies and I always have a hard time reading those lines aloud. The children are taken by surprise and all sit very still and look at me unsure of how to react. Some smile sweetly, some even walk up to give me hug as I dab the swelling of tears from my eyes. They offer words of comfort such as "It's only a book, it really didn't happen." "It's okay to feel sad." I smile and assure them I am ok and I can see the relief on their faces. I think it leaves a good impression though, that it is ok and yes, even teachers cry.
Throughout the story the author, E.B. White, offers many delightful and insightful quotes that speak to me now ~ I never noticed when I was a child. I have to share a few of my favorites:
"Children almost always hang onto things tighter than their parents think they will."
"You have been my friend," replied Charlotte. "That in itself is a tremendous thing…after all, what's a life anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die…By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that."
"THE BARN was very large. It was very old. It smelled of hay and it smelled of manure. It smelled of the perspiration of tired horses and the wonderful sweet breath of patient cows. It often had a sort of peaceful smell—as though nothing bad could happen ever again in the world."
"Most people believe almost anything they see in print."
"The night seemed long. Wilbur's stomach was empty and his mind was full. And when your stomach is empty and your mind is full, it's always hard to sleep."
As I read aloud the final lines of this wonderful story: " She was in a class by herself. It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer. Charlotte was both." I am usually fortunate enough to look up just in time to see the smiles emerge as the children break into the sweet sound of applause. It thrills my heart when this happens and it gives me hope that they will always remember this sweet story and these most precious days of their lives.
Serving Others
The summer I was 16 my friend Cathy and I were Red Cross volunteer's at a VA hospital two mornings a week for about four weeks. Our job was to mostly push patients here or there around in a wheel chair. Occasionally we would deliver flowers, escort visitors to rooms, or offer to get cups of water or coffee for families waiting on a loved one having surgery. At the end of our shift, we both felt appreciative for the chance to help and be of service to others.
As I approach retirement I have begun to research opportunities to volunteer. Living near a large city provides an abundance of choices such as assisting at a hospital (both regular and children's), becoming a foster grandparent to a child, Habitat for Humanity, Meals on Wheels (I love to cook and would really enjoy preparing these meals), helping out at an animal shelter and the list goes on. If I decide to get more adventurous there is Global Volunteers.
A young friend told me her parents volunteer at a nearby hospice. It takes a very special person to volunteer in this environment. What an excellent opportunity to provide emotional and spiritual support to both patients and their loved ones during this truly precious and delicate time of life.
Our school system allows people to become mentors to our students. Filling all of the slots for this volunteer position can be challenging because a lot of people don't know this particular opportunity is available. The men or women usually come once a week during lunch time. They will sit with the child outside at one of our picnic tables or inside at a reserved section of the lunchroom. Sometimes they come during the day and they will usually go to the library to talk, read a story, or play a game. These children may lack social skills, have private issues, or their home life may not be the most stable environment. Often all these students need is an adult (or anyone) to listen to them and let them know someone cares. Both the mentor and the student look forward to this special time together.
Becoming a volunteer can be an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others and may also change someone's life (maybe my own) in the process.
"Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms." 1 Peter 4:10
"Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?" Then I said, "Here am I. Send me!" Isaiah 6:8

The Healers is the fifth novel in the Inspector Ramsay series by Ann Cleeves, author of the Shetland and Vera Stanhope crime series.
News of the murder first came to Inspector Stephen Ramsay early on Monday morning. He was in a meeting, one of the endless meetings the Chief Superintendent regularly called, and the summons from Sergeant Gordon Hunter came as a relief.
They found middle-aged farmer Ernie Bowles lying on his kitchen floor. He had been strangled, and was not a pretty sight. The gruesome discovery of his body had first been made by the beautiful Lily Jackman, a new-age traveller who was living with her boyfriend in a caravan on Bowles's land. Neither of them, however, had been close to the dead farmer, who had lived alone since the death of his mother and was, by all accounts, a rather unpleasant character.
Inspector Ramsay fears that this case will not be simple. In his experience, most murders are straightforward: an explosion of family pressure, the loss of control in a fight. But Bowles seems to have kept himself to himself, and Ramsay feels that to solve the mystery of his death he will need all the help he can get. Then another person is strangled, a woman who, on the surface, had absolutely no connection with the dead farmer. Surely two such killings in the same locality are more than just chilling coincidence?
When Ramsay hears of a third suspicious death, a very tenuous link between the victims takes on a new importance, for all were connected in some way to the Alternative Therapy Centre in Mittingford. Could one of the healers be a killer?
