At 2:18 Eastern Time Wednesday cell phones across America beeped, honked, rang, and produced that obnoxious 'this is a test of the emergency broadcast system' claxon. If you were alone in your car or at your home it may have been startling, but reports from phone owners at Walmart and other places where lots of people gather say that the effect was startling.
Presidential alerts don't come from the President. Worries that President Trump will be moving his Twitter postings to mandatory alerts on our phones are ill-founded. But the not-entirely clearly titled alert is called a 'Presidential Alert' because FEMA issues it on behalf of the President, a level of alert that citizens can't opt out of. Theoretically a president could use it to address the nation in a real emergency, but the system isn't for tweeting. Wednesday's test was scheduled for September 20th, but postponed because of an actual emergency, Hurricane Florence.
The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a top-of-the-pyramid alert system managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This was the fourth test of the system, but the first to include texting. Last year's test was directed at Cable TV, Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), Broadcast TV, and Radio. But FEMA was not satisfied with the result.
"While the apparent overall quality of the data collected in ETRS has improved FEMA continues to have concerns regarding the quality of EAS Participant responses recorded in ETRS. For example seven EAS Participants indicated that they did not receive the NPT message, but did successfully relay the message they claimed not to receive," said FEMA's final report on the 2017 test.
Then in January of this year Hawaiians received an alert via EAS at 8:07am. The alert read, "BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII. SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL". The alert finished with, 'This is not a drill.'
38 minutes later a second alert was sent to assure the good folks of Hawaii that the first alert was a false alarm. Evidently the alert was part of a drill that went very, very wrong. During a shift change an employee at the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency goofed, clicking a button to send an actual alert instead of the one for tests, and claimed that during the phone call informing him of the test he hadn't heard the part about it being a test because a fellow employee had switched the call to speakerphone part way through the call.
The incident was widely viewed as a procedural failure of the EAS system.
Cell phone owners can turn off Amber Alerts and most Emergency Alerts in their phone settings. But Presidential Alerts can not be turned off. Although that didn't prevent some people from trying. A Wired article explained that you could put your phone in Airplane Mode during the half hour of Wednesday's test. It didn't mention another remedy - turning off your phone. But the article noted this only works for tests that are announced beforehand, like Wednesday's test was. You'd have to be clairvoyant to know when to turn your phone off for a real emergency. Of course if that were the case you would most likely already know about the emergency anyway, so you wouldn't need an alert.
While confusion Wednesday wasn't as consequential as that resulting from the Hawaii alert debacle, Twitter, Facebook, and other social media response was immediate and not necessarily well informed. Predictable political comments were plentiful, and some folks thought the President had singled them out for a personal communication. But mostly it was just another thing to talk about in the national conversation.
Some folks see the EAS as an Orwellian intrusion. Others see it as a valuable tool for responding to national emergencies. Walmart shoppers, no doubt, saw it as a lot of sudden noise.
On the serious side, some reports say that if the alert had been a real nuclear strike warning Americans would probably have less than 15 minutes to get to shelter, possibly half that time. FEMA recommends staying inside, preferably with as much concrete and other building materials between you and the radiation outside as possible -- in other words stay in your basement for... well how long would work? And if you were in the missile target area, the Presidential Alert would likely be the last text you receive. A sobering thought.

Whey protein was supposed to be the protein of the future. But the average whey protein has not lived up to the hype. A subtle point that has been widely missed is that protein consumption does not always equate precisely with protein utilization. There is no reason to have a high protein intake unless you can digest and assimilate it.
But, Muscle Provider is not your average whey protein. Don't settle for poor results caused by poor protein absorption. Here's a
Science Backed Blend of the best forms of Whey and Egg with an extremely high BV (Biological Value), PER (Protein Efficiency Ratio) and unmatched NPU (Net Protein Utilization), i.e. it promotes muscular growth, nitrogen retention and is 100% utilized!

So the June 2018 Real Estate Numbers are out now, Today I am going to dive deep into what these numbers mean in the Greater Vancouver Market. With home sale activity dipping below long-term historical averages, the supply of homes for sale in Metro Vancouver* reached a three-year high in June.
The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) reports that residential home sales in the region totalled 2,425 in June 2018, a 37.7 per cent decline from the 3,893 sales recorded in June 2017, and a 14.4 per cent decrease compared to May 2018 when 2,833 homes sold.
Last month's sales were 28.7 per cent below the 10-year June sales average.
"Buyers are less active today. "Rising interest rates, high prices and more restrictive mortgage requirements are among the factors dampening home buyer activity today."
There were 5,279 detached, attached and apartment properties newly listed for sale on the Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in Metro Vancouver in June 2018. This represents a 7.7 per cent decrease compared to the 5,721 homes listed in June 2017 and a 17.2 per cent decrease compared to May 2018 when 6,375 homes were listed.
The total number of homes currently listed for sale on the MLS® system in Metro Vancouver is 11,947, a 40.3 per cent increase compared to June 2017 (8,515) and a 5.8 per cent increase compared to May 2018 (11,292). This is the highest this total has been since June 2015.
"With reduced demand, detached homes are entering a buyers' market and price growth in our townhome and apartment markets is showing signs of decelerating."
For all property types, the sales-to-active listings ratio for June 2018 is 20.3 per cent. By property type, the ratio is 11.7 per cent for detached homes, 24.9 per cent for townhomes, and 33.4 per cent for condominiums.
Generally, analysts say that downward pressure on home prices occurs when the ratio dips below the 12 per cent mark for a sustained period, while home prices often experience upward pressure when it surpasses 20 per cent over several months.
The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver is currently $1,093,600. This represents a 9.5 per cent increase over June 2017 and is virtually unchanged from May 2018.
Sales of detached homes in June 2018 reached 766, a 42 per cent decrease from the 1,320 detached sales recorded in June 2017. The benchmark price for a detached home is $1,598,200. This represents a 0.7 per cent increase from June 2017 and a 0.6 per cent decrease compared to May 2018.
Sales of apartment homes reached 1,240 in June 2018, a 34.9 per cent decrease compared to the 1,905 sales in June 2017. The benchmark price for an apartment is $704,200. This represents a 17.2 per cent increase from June 2017 and a 0.4 per cent increase compared to May 2018.
Attached home sales in June 2018 totalled 419, a 37.3 per cent decrease compared to the 668 sales in June 2017. The benchmark price of an attached home is $859,800. This represents a 15.3 per cent increase from June 2017 and is virtually unchanged from May 2018.
So the results of the figures are obvious here, detached homes will continue to see softening in pricing, for condos and townhomes we still have an active market, but if demand continues to decrease and inventories continue to increase at the same rate as it has since May 2017 we should see a buyers market for condos and townhomes by the end of the year.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argued on Thursday at the University of La Verne for a national expansion of green-energy production.
The son of the late U.S. attorney general and nephew of President John Kennedy said leaders should start building a more efficient national electric grid to handle renewable energy, create large solar-collection complexes in Southwestern states, and encourage the spread of solar collection in houses and farms in the Great Plains.
He also praised countries – such as Iceland, Sweden and Brazil – that have achieved more energy independence than the United States by using green energies.
"Right now, we have a system that is rigged by the incumbents to reward the dirtiest, filthiest, most destructive, most addictive fuels from hell, rather than achieve clean, local, abundant fuels from heaven," Kennedy said. "We need to turn that around and rationalize the system and turn every American into an energy entrepreneur."
Kennedy is the senior attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council. He was named one of Time magazine's "Heroes for the Planet" in May 2010 for helping the environmental nonprofit Riverkeeper restore the Hudson River in New York.
The university's International Studies Institute hosted Kennedy's speech in the Ann and Steve Morgan Auditorium. Kennedy's appearance was part of a series of presentations and lectures at the university about globalization and sustainability.
"That's why we thought of Mr. Kennedy's work, his life interest in the environment, and his political activism to defend the environment was useful in that context of sustainability, economics, trade and globalization," said Gitty Amini, an associate professor of political science.
Kennedy also spoke about how the cost of oil energy production is related to trillions of tax dollars spent on wars in the Middle East, military escorts for corporate transport ships and the cost of environmental catastrophes such as the Exxon Valdez disaster in Alaska in 1989 and last year's oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Hellooooo fabulous KMT readers! I'm Allie of Allie's New Day (and this AWESOME guest post on engagement ring shopping) and I'm here to share our urban photo session with you. A little backstory: Mr. NYC and I have been together for about a year and a half and have very few pictures of us together. I made the executive decision that we should do a couples photo session (this was pre-engagement) and I knew exactly who I wanted as our photographer: Nashville-based Amber V. of Lotus Blossom Photography. Not only am I blessed to call her a friend, she's got some kick ass talent. I've always loved her style and her perspective and there was no doubt that I had to hire her. I worked with her to find a date to fly her into Dallas, and it was ON.
Our next decision was to figure out where we wanted our photo session to take place. You see, my FH & I are like Donnie & Marie – a little bit country (me) and a little bit rock n roll (him). He's not really a rock n roll guy. It just fit the song. But he IS a city boy – NYC. THE City. (And that's why his nickname is Mr. NYC – obvious, right?!). So while a session in the Fort Worth Stockyards totally fit me, it was totally NOT Mr. NYC.
|NOT Mr. NYC
What I really wanted was something kind of Urban Cowboy.
No, no, NOT John Travolta. (And no, I can't really explain why I'm stuck on 70's references today). I wanted photos that combined Mr. NYC's urban roots with my down-home-Texas casual style. I knew that Amber is totally inspired by all things rusty, industrial, and unusual. I thought that doing a session in Deep Ellum would totally fit for all of us: urban (it's basically downtown Dallas), Texas (cuz it's still Dallas), and industrial/unusual. So without further yammering on, here's some of my favorite shots from our session:

The moral of the story? Know what "style" of photography fits you. Find a photographer who's style you like. COMMUNICATE what you're looking for in photos to your fabulous photographer. And then trust him or her to capture it.
Hope you enjoyed our urban photo session. Thank again to Amber and Lotus Blossom Photography!!

Home » List of Keyskills » Teaching
In education, a teacher is a person who teaches; a person who guides, instructs, trains or helps another in the process of learning knowledge, understanding, behaviour or skills, including thinking skills. A teacher who teaches an individual student may also be described as a personal tutor. The role of teacher is often formal and ongoing, carried out by way of occupation or profession at a school or other place of formal education. In many countries, a person wishing to become a teacher at state-funded schools must first obtain professional qualifications or credentials from a university or college. These professional qualifications may include the study of pedagogy, the science of teaching. Teachers may use a lesson plan to facilitate student learning, providing a course of study which covers a standardized curriculum. A teacher's role may vary between cultures. In most countries, some professional teachers teach literacy and numeracy, or some of the other school subjects. Other teachers may provide instruction in craftsmanship or vocational training, the Arts, religion or spirituality, civics, community roles, or life skills. In some countries, formal education can take place through home schooling.

The Walker Inn (Los Angeles, CA) [3]
3612 W 6th St, Los Angeles, CA 90005
Sun 02/19/2017, 08:10p-10:00p
Following a homey dinner at the new Yuk Dae Jang and dessert at Cassell's, we made our way to The Walker Inn for our 8:00 reservation. My last visit here featured the "Climate" menu, and after "Science Fair," "Holiday Scoundrels," and "Greatest Hits" themes, the bar changed things up most recently at the end of January. Tonight's subject matter was "Winter Citrus," which as you might expect given the name, features cocktails incorporating a variety of Southern California citrus fruit.
Note that our previous bartender, Bryan Bruce, left The Walker Inn in December and is now focusing on his own venture, Aperitif Cocktail Catering, based out of Redlands I believe. In his place, we were tended to by ex-Salt's Cure/Bestia/Varnish barman Daniel Zacharczuk (with support from GM Trevor Easter), who proved more than capable.
And here we see "Winter Citrus," which was considerably shorter than the previous menus we'd encountered. Note also the presence now of a $40 preset tasting option. Click for a larger version.
Cara Cara [$15.00] | "Orange Wine"
Orange wine refers to a white wine that has spent time in contact with grape skins, hence the color. It seems to be a bit of a "thing" now, so I suppose it made sense for the Walker Inn team to start us off with their cocktailian version. Their faux orange wine comprised Chardonnay, a Cara cara distillate, brandy, apple cider vinegar, and orange blossom honey. I certainly got what they were going for, with a nose filled with sweet, fruity, and as well as funky notes. Taste-wise, think floral, citrusy, a touch spicy, but with a persistent bitterness and a definite boozy backing.
Kumquat [$20.00] | Brown Butter Washed Rum, Apple Juice, Kumquat Oleo, Spices
The orange wine was followed by a winter-y, hot toddy-inspired cocktail. The toddy itself was based on a kumquat oleo saccharum with Madeira, apple juice, and brown butter rum, and was paired with a trio of tinctures: star anise, cardamom, and cinnamon. The idea was to apply the three concentrates to the toddy to your taste--a bit of an interactive process. Taken alone, the cocktail smelled strongly of sweet spice, a characteristic that continued on to the thick, rich palate, where it was joined by some citric, nutty elements. With the addition of the three tinctures (I ended up with a 3:2:1 ratio), the holiday/baking spice aspect was amplified even more.
One of my drinking companions brought along some yogurt-covered pretzels to munch on, while the staff graciously provided the bowl.
Lee Tangerine & Sour Orange [$20.00] | Dolin Blanc Vermouth, Gin, Suze, Citrus Juice & Zest, Fizz
The most spirit-forward cocktail we had blended a citrus zest distillate with Fords gin, Dolin Blanc, and Suze gentian. The whole thing was then force-carbonated, giving it an effervescence that was particularly refreshing after the potent toddy above. The drink smelled fantastic, showing off loads of super bright, super aromatic citrus. Taste-wise, I got forceful, focused, true-to-life tart-sweet citrus married with a bitter, herbal bite.
Ruby Red Grapefruit [$20.00] | Cocchi Americano, Aquavit, Grapefruit Purée, Bruléed Grapefruit, Fennel Pollen, Salt
Next was a play on the idea of having a half grapefruit with breakfast. What we had was blended grapefruit mixed with lemon, Cocchi Americano, and akvavit, then garnished with a torched grapefruit with sugar, sea salt, and fennel pollen. The result was a bracing, bittersweet slush that showcased the grapefruit's flavor, but with a wonderful touch of counterbalancing anise on the finish.
Our pretzels were later joined by Walker Inn's addictive coconut oil-sea salt popcorn.
Mandarin [$18.00] | Choice of Vodka or Gin, Fino Sherry, Dante's "Fluffy" Mandarin Juice
The final citrus cocktail was a playful marriage of Orange Julius and a Ramos gin fizz. The drink starts with the "fluffy" juice of pulverized whole mandarins (popularized by Caffe Dante in NYC), and the liquid is combined with fresh-squeezed mandarin, cream, egg white, Fino sherry, and vanilla liqueur. The end result, a viscous beverage, really did convey the orange-y, creamy qualities they were looking for, and I loved the dry, nutty finish contributed by the sherry.
A fellow drinker mentioned that she was a fan of the Vieux Carré, so Easter whipped up this variation called the Full Windsor. The cocktail's basically identical to the VC, but with Highland Park 12-yr scotch and Clear Creek apple brandy in place of the rye and cognac. It was lovely, really highlighting the fruitiness of the brandy and the subtle smokiness of the whisky, but with the bitters still in play.
Zacharczuk and company made for yet another thoroughly enjoyable experience at The Walker Inn. I think they certainly succeeded in showcasing the various varieties of citrus, and I liked the more compact menu format as well, which allows you to more easily sample all the cocktails offered.
Golden Iris
Afterward, we headed over to Terra Cotta for a quick sa-cha round. Ostensibly named after the owner's wife, our first cocktail brought together orange juice, vodka, lemon, a bourbon-vanilla bean syrup, and specks of vanilla bean. This smelled great, with lots of orange paired with a light, creamy character. The taste followed, but with the vanilla becoming more apparent. Lovely finish with more bright citrus all over the place.
Blac Velvet | Rhum JM, Angostura 7 year, Black Sesame, Lime
Our second cocktail incorporated black sesame, which is something of an uncommon ingredient. It did a great job calling attention to the nutty, almost smoky qualities of the seed, and paired that with a touch of tartness from the lime and the potent nature of the rums.

News releases
What does the UK know about stroke and how to prevent it?
We wanted a better insight into people's understanding of stroke and its causes before the launch of our campaign so at the end of February we asked a series of questions in a survey of almost 2000 adults in the UK.
See if you are better informed ……
Only 41% thought that stroke could be prevented and nearly half weren't sure, showing that there is a real need for our campaign to increase awareness about stroke prevention.
74% knew that high blood pressure is a risk factor for stroke but only 17% knew that eating too little fruit and veg was a risk factor for stroke.
Almost a third knew that high blood pressure is the biggest cause of stroke. But only 12% knew that a high intake of salt was the largest cause of high blood pressure – most people thought it was being overweight, followed by stress.
A quarter didn't know that we should eat a maximum of 6g of salt a day (around a teaspoon)showing that public health messages don't always reach the whole population, especially those over 55.
30% thought ready meals and shop-bought pizzas contributed the most salt to our diets. It's actually bread and bread products but only 6% knew this. This is because although ready meals and shop-bought pizzas generally contain more salt we actually eat much more bread and bread products so overall they contribute the most salt.
71% think it's an individual's duty to reduce the salt in our food but only 25% of the salt we eat is added at the table or during cooking. The majority of the salt we eat, 75%, is already in the food we buy – making it hard for us as individuals to have much control of our intakes. 58% thought that the food industry should take action and 24% thought the government should.
Do you know.....?
- Each year there are over 100,000 strokes in the UK.
- There are more than 1.2 million stroke survivors in the UK.
- Stroke is the 2nd leading cause of death worldwide; in the UK it's the 4th leading cause of death.
- Between 1990 and 2010 the number of stroke deaths per 100,000 people fell by almost half.
- In 2015 over 40,000 people died of stroke in the UK.
- The stroke-related cost to the NHS and social care is around £1.7billion in England annually.
What raises the risk of stroke?
There are a number of lifestyle factors that raise the risk of stroke, such as high blood pressure, lack of exercise eating too much salt and drinking too much alcohol. There are a number of factors we can't change:
Gender: You are more likely to have a stroke at a young age if you are male. You're more likely to die of stroke if you are female – this is because women live longer and have their strokes when they are older.
Ethnicity: If you are Black or South Asian (from Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan or Sri Lanka) you are more likely to have a stroke compared to white people.
Social background: If you are from a deprived area you are more likely to have a stroke than those from wealthier areas.
If you fall into these categories, make sure you get your blood pressure checked so that you can get the right medications or lifestyle advice from your GP, and keep your risk of stroke down.
We're releasing a new booklet all about how you can look after your health and lower your risk of stroke, including handy tips to make it easier. Contact our Nutritionist, Shefalee Loth, to pre-order yours at email@example.com or 020 7882 6255.

Eleje: Katsina United's season has just kicked off
Ahead of Wednesday's game against Enugu Rangers, Katsina United's Obinna Eleje says already kick-started their 2017-18 season with their home victory over Enyimba.
The Chanji Boys were held to a 2-2 draw by Kano Pillars in their opening fixture of the season at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium before their 1-2 narrow loss to Sunshine Stars in Akure.
But Eleje believes that their defeat of the seven-time league champions on Sunday has given them renewed hope that they can achieve even more.
"It was a tough home fixture for us against Enyimba but having watched them in recent games, we knew that we had what it takes to beat them and we explored the possibilities against them," Eleje told Goal.
"Enyimba probably came with the mindset that the game would be easy for them but we took time to study them during the pre-season tournament in Kano.
"We believe that this win will help us to get even more fine results later on in the season.
"We have started something nice with our first win of the season and we are determined to sustain it ahead of our game [against Enugu Rangers] on Wednesday," he concluded.

A young boy has put himself in a really perilous state after trying to circumcise himself using a machete.
The boy spent two days in this hospital
A 16-year-old boy was rushed to hospital in absolute agony recently after trying to circumcise himself with a machete. He reportedly tried to circumcise himself after many of his taunting pals said he would never get a girlfriend.
The young Zimbabwean schoolboy botched the job and was left covered in blood after taking the giant blade to his manhood.
The tragic young boy was convinced it was his only way to find true love.
Doctors at St Lukes Hospital in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, rushed him in by ambulance for urgent treatment, then stitched up his penis and bandaged the painful wound.
He is now recovering at home after two days in hospital.
Provincial medical director Nyasha Masuka said: "It seems the other boys were laughing at him for not being circumcised so he used a machete to circumcise himself and injured himself in the process.
"Circumcisions are done free so he did not have to go through this."
Zimbabwe is currently running a nationwide voluntary circumcision programme for men which is touted as a way of reducing HIV transmission and the incidence of cervical cancer in women.
Those who choose to be circumcised don't have to pay.
A fellow doctor said: "Other patients were astonished by his bravery and wondering how he managed to do it. He had wounded the foreskin with a clinically inappropriate tool so we finished the job.
"There was a lot of blood but he remained in good spirits despite the pain.
"His school friends told him he would never get a girlfriend with a foreskin so he tried to cut if off.
"He has been told not to listen to them and not to be so stupid in future."

High school hockey: Stevenson skates past Glenbrook South, into state title game
Senior captain Jackson Leptich scored a wristshot goal into an empty-net with 21 seconds remaining in regulation on Monday night at The Edge Ice Arena in Bensenville, icing decades of frustration and sending Stevenson into the state championship game of the top-tiered Illinois High School Hockey (Red Division) state tournament.
The No. 3-seeded Patriots defeated No. 7 Glenbrook South 4-2, and now will skate for state on Saturday, March 24 at the United Center. Stevenson (55-17-2) faces the winner of Monday's second semifinal between No. 1-ranked Loyola Gold and No. 4 Glenbrook North.
"This was awesome," said Stevenson forward Trevor Hilt, who had 2 goals and 1 assist. "We're making history and just have to keep it going. Growing up, I've always wanted to play at the UC, and now I have the chance."
Hilt gave the Patriots a 1-0 edge less than five minutes into the game, chipping the puck past Glenbrook South goalie Jamie Dziurdzik off an assist from Seth Cohen.
The Patriots' early lead was short-lived, though. South tied the game at 4:51 of the first period, and Daniel McKay's power-play backdoor goal at 2:51 of the first gave the Titans a 2-1 edge.
Stevenson tied the game at 15:05 of the second period on a Carter Devlin powerplay tally, assisted by Adam Offenbach and Hilt.
Hilt scored the game-winner at 3:02 of the second period, assisted by Cohen and Offenbach.
"We had a lot of pressure, though we knew we were good enough to make it (to the United Center) … and it feels unreal," Leptich said. "Ever since losing to New Trier (Green) in the quarterfinals last year, we took it upon ourselves to train as a group all summer and it's paying off."
Leptich, a four-year varsity player, was Stevenson's leading scorer this season, netting 73 goals in 72 games, along with 47 assists.
"I wasn't sure (it was going in); I just sent it (toward the net) and hoped for the best," Leptich said of the unassisted empty-net goal. "I thought it was going wide for a second, but thank God it was on net."
Stevenson coach Tom Wood, who graduated from the school in 1998 and was a four-year varsity skater, was teary-eyed after the win.
"I'm just happy for the kids," said Wood, in his second season as the school's head coach after spending 14 years as an assistant coach. "The kids were hyped, but at the same time were really, really focused on playing relaxed during the game, and I thought we played with a lot of patience and executed our game plan."
Wood succeeded his dad, Jim, as the Patriots' head coach and is assisted on the bench by his brother, Dan, a 2008 Stevenson graduated who also was a defensive standout for the Patriots.
Stevenson goalie Elias Sandholm stopped 18 shots, while the Patriots forced Dziurdzik to save 25 shots."
Wood said watching Leptich's shot slide into the net was "pure joy."
However, the final moments before Leptich's empty-netter were tense for the Patriots, especially as they were forced to kill a 5-on-3 man-disadvantage in the final three minutes.
"We really stressed not giving up the odd-man breaks and not giving them too many power plays," Wood said.
Sandholm, in his first season at Stevenson, added, "I had a lot of fun all game; I love the tight games."
Hilt said his goals were "two of the biggest goals of my career (in one game)."

Freestyle machine embroidery
I've been working hard on extending my machine embroidery skills. I've been following mainly a book called "Freestyle Machine Embroidery" by a textile artist I admire greatly, Carol Shinn. She gives lots of detailed information, and exercises which I found very useful to follow through. The book is available from Amazon. In the end I made a piece inspired by my recent holiday to Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory depicting my favourite scene - a Jabiru eyeing the river cautiously, as he was surrounded by saltwater crocodiles.

24 Aug Ep7 – Jillian Jordan is Creating a Movement (1 of 2)
Posted at 16:45h in Syndicated Media
This is episode number 7 of The Jason Croft Show where we show you how to build a movement around something you're passionate about.
Welcome to episode number seven. If you haven't done so yet, make sure you check out my last two episodes with Ken Koo. He filled us in on Bridge Alliance, which is what he's created to tackle the incredibly large and complex need (and profitable opportunities) of merging large corporations and innovative startups.
For the show today, we've got something a little different. This interview was done at The Grove in Dallas, TX during Startup Week in Dallas this year. I had the great fortune to interview Jillian Jordan in front of a live audience at that beautiful co-working space.
Jillian has launched The Great Seed Bomb. Her goal is to build a nationwide movement around the massive importance of bees and other pollinating insects. But this isn't some "pass out flyers and let's chat about it" education session. Jillian is all about action. Find out how The Great Seed Bomb is empowering large numbers of people to effect major change.
This is great so far. I've broken this wonderful interview into two parts for you in case you need to jump back into life. But if you're ready for more with Jillian right away, including the Q and A we did with the audience at the end, jump into episode 8 right now. I'll see you over there.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Professional Counseling?
As a Professional Counselor, I work collaboratively with you and whom you believe needs to be involved in helping you resolve your concerns. My role is to help you identify stressors, how they affect your capacity to function in different environments, and develop a plan of action. Counseling is a means of helping you reach your goals by identifying and removing roadblocks, as well as finding constructive solutions to your problems. Often, treatment goals include improving communication and coping skills, strengthening self-esteem, promoting behavior change, and reaching optimal mental health.
When should I seek professional counseling?

How can therapy help me?
A number of benefits are available from participating in counseling. I can provide support, problem-solving skills, and improve your coping strategies for issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, unresolved childhood issues, grief, and stress management. Many people also find that counseling can be a tremendous asset to managing personal growth, interpersonal relationships, family concerns, marriage issues, and the hassles of daily life. Counseling can provide a fresh perspective on a difficult problem or point you in the direction of a solution. The benefits you obtain from counseling depend on how well you use the process and put into practice what you learn. Some of the benefits available from counseling include:
- Attaining a better understanding of yourself, your goals, and values
- Developing skills for improving your relationships
- Finding resolution to the issues or concerns that led you to seek therapy
- Learning new ways to cope with stress and anxiety
- Managing anger, grief, depression, and other emotional pressures
- Improving communications and listening skills
- Changing old behavior patterns and developing new ones
- Discovering new ways to solve problems in your family or marriage
- Improving your self-esteem and boosting self-confidence
What are the qualifications of Professional Counselors?
In the State of Arizona, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) must:
- Graduate from an accredited university with a Masters degree in a counseling-related program
- Successfully complete a Practicum or Field Experience with supervision
- Complete 3200 hours of supervised counseling experience within 24 months
- Pass the National Board of Certified Counselors examination
- Pass the requirements of the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners
- Attend counseling related training workshops and accrue 30 Continuing Education Units (CEU's) every two years
I have met all the Arizona standards to be a Professional Counselor and was awarded license number LPC-1228.
Does my health insurance carrier cover counseling?
I am a provider for many insurance carriers, as you have seen on my Rates and Insurance page.
Most clients I see have some combination of coverage from either an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and/or behavioral health coverage provided by their insurance carrier. Some choose to use cash and not their benefits.
Some employers have an Employee Assistance Program for their employees and family members. This is a pre-paid benefit of employment and typically does not have any co-payments or other out-of-pocket expenses. EAPs offer from 3-10 visits and require the employee to get a pre-authorization number before seeing the counselor. If you have this benefit available to you, please check with your Human Resources Department for the name and benefits associated with your EAP.
The behavioral health coverage provided by your health insurance carrier is available to you and other family members covered under your policy. These benefits have a co-payment between $15-$50. If I am not a provider with your specific health insurance carrier, I can still provide counseling services as an Out-of-Network provider. I can also contact your insurance carrier and make special arrangements, such as a Single Case Agreement. Please check with your Human Resources Department for the specifics of your policy. For more information, go to my Rates and Insurance information page.
What if I do not have insurance coverage?
If you do not have behavioral health insurance coverage, I can still provide counseling services on an out-of network bais on a fee-for-service. Please call for additional information; we have flexibility with rates after an initial phone consultation.
How long does counseling take?
Ideally, counseling is terminated when the presenting problem becomes more manageable or is resolved. However, some insurance companies and behavioral heath plans may limit the number of sessions for which they will pay. You should check with your health plan to find out more about any limitations in your coverage. We will discuss the length of treatment that may be needed to achieve your goals in the first few sessions.
Is everything I say confidential?
As a client, you are guaranteed the protection of confidentiality within the boundaries of the client/counselor relationship. Disclosures can only take place after you have provided a signed Release of Information. In general, there are three situations in which confidentiality has to be breached. These include:
- When I believe that there is clear and imminent danger to you, such as in the case of suicide.
- When I believe that someone's safety is in danger, such as in child or elder abuse.
- When a judge issues a court order for your records.
Whenever possible, you will be informed before confidential information is disclosed and why it has to be disclosed.

CAPE ELIZABETH — A Town Council subcommittee is recommending the town cap the number of tenants and guests allowed to inhabit seasonal home rentals.
The Ordinance Committee has discussed the issue since last fall. Its unanimous decision last week sends the discussion back to the full Town Council.
The recommendation is to limit the number of rental tenants to 12 per home, and their guests to six.
The issue was raised in September 2011, when residents in the Lawson Road area complained about nearby rental properties causing traffic, noise and safety problems. The Ordinance Committee was charged with looking at ways to reduce the impact of rental properties on neighbors and held a series of public meetings.
The committee, then made up of Councilors Jim Walsh, Frank Governali and former Councilor Anne Swift-Kayatta, met over four months to clarify the definition of a rental property; decide what an application process should require, and consider boundaries for events, rental periods and density issues.
Walsh remains chairman of the committee, with new members Councilors David Sherman and Kathy Ray.
Town Planner Maureen O'Meara said the recommended restrictions apply to properties on lots less than 30,000 square feet, or where the property owner is not living on the same lot or on a lot abutting the rental property while the house is being rented.
"Even thought it has been discussed for a while, it is still the beginning of the process," she said. "Ordinance amendments are not taken lightly."
The Town Council is expected to discuss the committee's recommendation Monday, Feb. 13, at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers at Town Hall.
O"Meara said the recommendation must still be reviewed by the Planning Board, there must be a public hearing, it will go back to the council and the Ordinance Committee could review it again if there are changes.
To view the draft amendments to the zoning ordinance, visit the town website and supporting documents from the Jan. 20 committee meeting.
