The Great American Teach-In is a national event where students have the opportunity to learn about different careers. Members of the community are invited into classrooms all over the country to share information with students about their career. The goal of the event is to expose students to different viewpoints and career paths from the workforce. Ultimately, are inspired to start students thinking about what jobs align with their personality, interest and skill set.
Michael Smith, Yard Manager of Copart Tampa South, participated in the Great American Teach-In at the elementary school where his wife works. Michael spoke to four second-grade classes about the history of Copart and the different types of jobs that are available within the company. He spoke about his personal journey with the company, from his start as a yard agent, then his transition to Loader Operator and Yard Supervisor, and now to his current position as Yard Manager. "The kids really loved seeing the pictures and asking him questions about how the company works and what an auction is like," said Ashley Smith, Michael's wife and teacher of one of the second-grade classes.
In a lot of major cities and rural areas across the United States, young children are not made aware of potential career paths and companies that can provide jobs to them in the future. The Great American Teach-In changes this narrative and gives students insight into the many different jobs and career paths our country has to offer.
Thank you, Michael, for volunteering at the Great American Teach-In and sharing the history of Copart.


Does Dental Insurance Cover Sedation Dentistry?
Now, sedation dentistry is commonly used to help promote the dental experience for patients who have unique needs. It is widely used to ease fears and anxieties of patients who suffer from dental-related phobias. It can also benefit those who have difficulty keeping their jaw open, a strong gag reflex, or need multiple or invasive procedures. If any of these situations sound familiar, you could enjoy a more comfortable experience with the help of sedation; however, you are concerned about the cost. There is no need to worry. You may be able to use your dental insurance to pay for it.
Better known as "laughing gas," nitrous oxide is an inhaled sedative with few side effects. A nasal mask is used to deliver the correct dosage, which can be adjusted to ensure you receive the right amount. It takes effect quickly to help you reach a high level of relaxation. After your appointment, the mask is removed, and the effects dissipate quickly, so you can resume your normal activities the same day.
Oral conscious sedation is a prescribed medication taken before your appointment. This helps you relax even before you leave your house. The sedative allows any worries or anxieties to fade away while you enjoy a pain-free appointment. In can take a few hours for the medication to wear off, so you will need someone to drive you home from your appointment. It is also best to spend the remainder of the day relaxing.
Depending on your specific policy, your dental insurance may cover a portion of the cost of the treatment. Most major dental plans consider it to be classified as a luxury or optional; however, there are times when it is covered, such as when it is medically necessary.
Each type of sedation varies in cost. Depending on the type your dentist recommends, you can generally expect to pay $150 to $200 for a mild sedative, like nitrous oxide. To see if your policy covers it, it is best to get a pre-determination from your insurance company. Your dentist works on your behalf with your insurance company to maximize the value of your coverage.
If you have difficulty enjoying your dental appointments, sedation dentistry can help you sit back and relax. During your consultation, your dentist discusses your options to determine which type is right for you. They also work with your insurance to reduce the amount you need to pay out-of-pocket.
Do not let your discomfort stop you from visiting your dentist. Find out how sedation dentistry can help you.
Dr. David Tripulas provides advanced dental services to meet the needs of his patients. He is specially trained to provide sedation dentistry to accommodate patients who need extra help relaxing during their appointment. If you are ready to enjoy your next appointment, contact our office today to schedule an appointment.

Who? GHLOW
What? 'Hollow'
Where? Stockholm
What they say? The Stockholm based Swedish/Russian experimental duo GHLOW is the latest signing to the Swedish label PNKSLM Recordings. The project of multi-instrumentalists Emille de Blanche and Nikolay Evdokimov, GHLOW came together to soundtrack a film before evolving into a fully fledged band, merging electronica with live instruments, arriving at a haunting and energetic electronic punk/alternative rock style that sounds like nothing else out there.
Why we love it? Visceral guitars and a furious beat it burrows through the bowels of the city like one of those monsters from Stranger things, Emille de Blanche's menacing vocals squawks are leading the charge to the end of the night. Abrasive, brutal and yet hypnotic, 'Hollow' is searching and destroying everything in its path. (BC)
FFO: The Kills, Lusts, Suicide, Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Who? KOKOKO
What? 'Buka Dansa'
Where? Kinshasa
What they say? KOKOKO! represent the antithesis of tradition, and their debut album Fongola – which translates to "the key". Discussing 'Buka Dansa', the group offered the following; "'Buka Dansa' means 'dance till it breaks', or 'break the dance' and Dido sings the song on a synthetic rhythm, where the riff from a self-made guitar moves with the melodies. The lyrics are psychedelic, and remember what's good in life – putting that feeling parallel with a nice taste passing into your throat, like smoke, a digestion of good moments."
Why we love it? Blurring all of the lines between African rhythms, punk, dancefloor beats and tribal chant, Kokoko produce a joyous communal experience. Their music offers "a torrid, anarchic, youthful journey smashing a new path through modern life in Africa's third most populous city." (BC)
FFO: Fela Kuti, LCD Soundsystem, Ibio Sound Machine
Who? Outer Spaces
What? 'Album for Ghosts'
Where? Baltimore
What they say? On 'Album for Ghosts' Satalino reflects on a "period where I was obsessed with finding music from the past that has a cult following now, but never really 'caught on' at the time it was released, either because it was ahead of its time or simply because no one had really heard it. I was thinking of the music industry today and how it's basically flooded with musical content. And how with a changing world (climate change, etc.), we might not be in a position to be searching the archives of Bandcamp for musical relics in 50+ years. In the end it was like 'You're going to do this anyway, despite the outcome.'"
Why we love it? Outer Spaces is the project of singer/songwriter Cara Beth Satalino. Her new single begins with a charming intimacy this tune unfurls into a jangling gem. It's about finding unappreciated diamonds amongst the deluge of music online, discovering a personal soundtrack of your own. It's laced with a craft, vivid lyricism and bittersweet melodies that characterises Outer Spaces' attention to the intricate details of songwriting. Hugely impressive. (BC)
FFO: Big Thief, REM, Angel Olsen
Who? Gintis
What? 'Four Movements'
Where? Liverpool
What they say? Carl Roberts said of the tracks: "It's me channeling a sea captain who retired to work as a security guard, thinking back on a night shift with only his memories and keyboard. Either that or a doomed fantasy of Brian Wilson growing up in Rhyl."
Why we love it? Wistful and tuneful. Gintis deliver a lovelorn slice of string-tinged psych pop, laced with laments. It's ripe with gorgeous, wistful harmonies that peer out to sea and reminsice, and a playfulness that harks back to the work of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci. Wonderful. (BC)
FFO: Gorkys, Sweet Baboo, The Beach Boys
Who? Spike Fuck
What? 'Junkie Logic'
Where? Melbourne
What they say? "I wanted to pair the embarrassingly honest and admittedly (at times) depressingly ordinary lyrical content with this over-the-top and self-obsessed clip. It shows the ugliness of self-centeredness – the absurdity of believing that we and we alone are playing the starring role in this reality, and that the world is simply there to help build our story arc."
Why we love it? Honest and unvarnished, 'Junkie Logic' details its writers' problems with drug abuse through the odd, yet apt lens of glistening, 80s power-balladry/loner-rock that patrols the darkest of tunnels, forever seeking the light at the end. (NK)
FFO: Johnny Thunders, The Triffids, Alex Cameron
Who? MOHIT
What? 'Yoghurt'
Where? East London
What they say? Speaking about the influences behind the song the band said: "Yoghurt is the seed that began the sonic journey that led to the sound and shape of MOHIT. It was the first recorded song, the very spark. Many of the avenues explored in other songs are present in this piece; the use of loops, beat-lead sections, evocative harmonies and sonic landscapes, stretching to the most intense moments. The process of making the song conduced each member's connected input and their sensitivities to it, resulting in a path through unfamiliar grounds for the listener to navigate".
Why we love it? A dizzying ramshackle of wriggling, art rock guitars, scattergun drums and swooning vocal harmonies that takes you on a journey across the earth and back in time for tea. Epic and progressive stuff. (NK)
FFO: Ought, Radiohead, Preoccupations
Who? Cross Record
What? 'PYSOL My Castle'
Where? 'Texas'
What they say? 'PYSOL My Castle' is immediate proof of Cross's introspection. Inspired by a visit to an overstimulating Mexican street market, the track describes her search for an unencumbered mind space: "Walking through the plaza in a dream // All these people reaching out // touching me. I cannot take what you are giving // You cannot break the bubble I'm living in."
Why we love it? Haunting and transendental. Subtle instrumental textures ripple beaneath like the water lapping at your feet. With transfixing vocals Cross Record weaves a spell that captures a moment in time, trapped in your own mind, wanting to switch off the world around you. Utterly entrancing. (BC)

I have listened to you since I started college. You have taught me many valuable lessons and I now live the life I want for the rest of my life. It is not always perfect, but I am learning every day. Each day I wake up and think how I can value and appreciate the differences between my hubby and me! Thank you for that!
With that said, I am a teacher of 14 (now part-time) years and a mother of two very active boys, 6 and 4. They were even active in my tummy! My kick counts literally took 15 seconds each night. My husband and I knew we were in for it.
If I may say, it is not our schools that are failing our boys, it's their family lives at home. As a teacher, I offer active learning centers where my students can move, talk and express themselves. As teachers, we do everything we can to get our kiddos actively engaged in their education. My colleagues even taught me to have empty envelopes so that the boys in the classroom can "deliver" something to the office just to give them an opportunity to move. I believe now more than any other time in history, our boys have more opportunity to learn according to their needs.
However, our boys are being "feminized" at home! Boys now see two working parents and I truly think they are gender confused. Our children think the 50/50 rule is the norm. I don't know how and when it happened, but men are not taking (and women are not allowing or encouraging) men to TAKE their masculine roles. I teach my boys that although I'm their boss, dad is the "big boss" of the house and they always have to ask daddy to be excused from the table. My hubby takes the boys surfing and teaches them how to work on the boat. My boys see me at home cooking them hot meals at night and doing laundry, while they see Dad going to work and finishing projects around the house. We take time to thank Dad for providing us with the things we have. We appreciate the things he does as a daddy and things I do as a mommy.
Might I also add that moms today are treating their boys like girls. Our boys need the opportunity to run, get dirty, play tag, and skin their knees!!! Moms today are over "mommying" them and boys are learning to be over-sensitive and feminine. In order for children to learn, they must arrive at school with the proper foundations in place. Boys are missing out on opportunities to be boys at home. They are over scheduled. They do not get to play in the neighborhood and deal with the bully around the corner. Instead, boys now go on "playdates" and only run during sports practices. When they get home, they go right to the TV or computer. Boys need opportunities to fail so they may get back up and try again. I believe education is failing our boys because roles are confused at home. Let's let our boys be boys so they can grow up to be men!
Masculinity is an endangered species…keep fighting the good fight!

"Whatever role the NIV plays in your future church life depends on your assessment."
—Youngve Kindberg, President, New York International Bible Society, 1978
Pastors and other Christian leaders were invited to meet members of the CBT and ask questions at breakfasts throughout the Unites States in October and November 1978.
By the time the full New International Version of the Bible was released to the public on October 27, 1978, more than one million copies had already been preordered.
Those who had purchased the 1973 version of the NIV New Testament had eagerly awaited the publication of the full Bible, and the word was spreading in Christian circles about this new, contemporary English-language Bible. Retailers stocked their shelves, and everyone involved in producing the translation rejoiced, thankful that 13 years of effort was not in vain.
Amid a flood of positive reviews, it wasn't long before Zondervan ordered a second printing, and then a third.
"In our judgment the NIV is accurate, reads well, communicates clearly."
"It presents the Word of God with accuracy and vitality. Its publication is certainly one of the major events for Christians in our time."
"This is scholarship at its best, directed toward a practical end—namely, the clarification of the biblical text through careful translation for present and future generations of English-speaking peoples."
—Peter Craigie, University of Calgary
"Several pastors and teachers who have already been making memory assignments from the NIV have reported that students prefer memorizing Bible passages from a version they can understand more readily."
—John C. Jeske, Wisconsin Lutheran Quarterly, October 1978
"It may interest you to know that in English Bibles courses at Trinity Seminary I use the NIV constantly."
—D.A. Carson, Associate Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
To familiarize ministry leaders with the NIV, the New York International Bible Society (now Biblica) hosted breakfasts across the United States to celebrate the translation's release.
"Whatever role the NIV plays in your future church life depends on your assessment," NYIBS president Youngve Kindberg wrote in the invitation to pastors, school officials, bookstore managers, chaplains, editors of Christian publications, and denominational and organizational leaders.
At these events, at least one Committee on Bible Translation (CBT) member was present to explain the translation philosophy and process, and to answer questions from these key influencers in the evangelical community. As a parting gift, attendees received copies of hardcover pew Bibles.
To share the translation with future church leaders, Zondervan later gave out copies of the NIV to seminarians who often didn't have the money to purchase new Bibles. Years later, those seminarians who had become pastors would thank Zondervan's president, Bruce Ryskamp, for the gift:
"You don't know this, but you gave me this NIV Bible, and I'm still using that NIV Bible in my preaching."
As the translation entered the market, it also gained popularity organically through the movement toward a more generic form of evangelicalism. Prior to the 1970s, churches were usually associated with a particular denomination—Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, etc. When the NIV was published, more churches were branding themselves as nondenominational or just evangelical. A faithful version of the Bible that wasn't tied to a particular church, person or denomination was just what these churches needed.
"The NIV caught on and became very popular in the broader evangelical movement," said Doug Moo, chairman of the CBT.
"The version appears to be just what many of us longed for, but hardly dared hope for."
—Pastor, Kenmore, Australia
Today, the NIV is the most widely read contemporary English Bible translation.
A Translation for the Entire English-Speaking World
When the NIV was first commissioned, the goal had been to create a translation for the entire English-speaking world—one that was not too American or too anglicized. Translators from the United States, Canada, England, Northern Ireland, Australia and New Zealand participated in the project to ensure that it would appeal to a broad English-speaking audience.
When the initial translation was completed, the text went to a team of English specialists who suggested spelling and vocabulary adjustments that would make the text more readable for those in the British Commonwealth, such as using quarter instead of fourth, and cornfield instead of grainfield.
In February 1979, Hodder and Stoughton published the Anglicized edition of the NIV with an initial run of 300,000. When the Bible came off the presses in Brighton, Edward England, head of the publisher's religious department, immediately checked the Ten Commandments. He wanted no repeat of the so-called "Wicked Bible" of 1631, which accidently omitted the word "not" from the seventh commandment.
Thankfully, every word was in place.
"What bowls you over as you read the New International Version is quite how much of the old Bible you misunderstood," Peter Grosvenor wrote in the Daily Express after its release.
"The English is good and clear. The translation is accurate, dignified and readable," the Reverend Donald Allister said.
The translation also gained a following in India. It was the version CBT member Paul Swarup used as a teenager, and he still remembers being surprised by the translation at first.
"It was in the 1980s," Swarup said. "We moved from the King James Version to the Good News, and then all of a sudden, we have this great translation which is easy to read and easy to understand . . . very accurate and enjoyable reading."
The pace of adoption around the world was steady but not without struggles. People become attached to their Bibles, regardless of which translation they have. They have memorized its words and endlessly flipped through worn pages. For some Christians, deviating from their trusted King James Version was tantamount to heresy.
Randy Frazee, co-pastor of Oak Hills Church in San Antonio, Texas, was first exposed to the NIV at a Bible college that maintained that the King James Version was the only translation Christians should read. When a pastor's son secretly showed Frazee the NIV one evening, he thought, "I'm in big trouble."
But Frazee couldn't get the translation out of his mind, and eventually he decided to investigate the merits of different translations. He found that he respected the heart and skill of the NIV translation team.
"They were really serious about the original languages and manuscripts yet really trying to keep the contemporary person in mind," Frazee said. He began to use the NIV in seminary, and has studied it and preached from it ever since.
The NIV was embraced by many in established evangelical denominations as well as the new nondenominational movement. As the translation's reputation for clarity and accuracy spread, churches adopted it for use in Bible studies, preaching, memorization programs and Sunday school classes.
In 1984, the publishing house for the Nazarene denomination, which already used the NIV for its youth curriculum, began using the NIV for its adult Sunday school curriculum, as well. "The King James Version is not as meaningful to this modern generation as it was to previous generations. We felt the New International Version would speak more clearly to our people."
"If King James were alive today, he would read the NIV." NIV advertisements in the 1980s reminded people that of the purpose of the translation was to be understood by modern readers.
Churches quickly came to appreciate the NIV's accessibility to a wide variety of readers, as well as its use for study. In 1976 and 1977, before the full Bible was released, Grace Theological Seminary compared students' comprehension of the NIV against their comprehension of the King James Version and the New American Standard Version. The participants were children who had grown up in the church and attended Christian schools in Delaware, Maryland, Ohio and Virginia.
The outcome of the study was clear: in every grade, comprehension of the NIV was highest. Sixth graders' understanding of the NIV was even higher than twelfth graders' understanding of the KJV.
Older readers had similar experiences over the years. One day after church, Paul DeVries, pastor of Brookside Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was approached by an elderly man in his congregation. The man, who had come back to his faith late in life, had a question. He had an old King James Bible and a Living Bible: which one should he use? DeVries launched into an explanation about the difference between a translation and a paraphrase. Between the two Bibles the man had, one was hard to understand and the other was not as accurate.
DeVries handed him an NIV. "Read it and see if it's understandable for you," he said.
Not long afterward, the man returned and said, "I like this Bible."
Today, DeVries' church still recommends the NIV and its balanced translation philosophy to new believers and new members. "I don't know anything that compares to it when it comes to good, plain readability," DeVries said.
"This Bible communicates."
—The Alliance Witness
The NIrV helps make the Bible more comprehensible to those just learning to read English.
God's Word, Today
By late 1986, the NIV had become the bestselling English-language Bible, and it has remained so ever since. The goal of the NIV had been to do for modern people what the King James Version of the Bible did in centuries past: faithfully put God's Word in the language of the people. And it had done just that.
"If you're too literal," translator Ken Barker said, "you create a new English, one that is not how people speak and read and talk today."
If the translation had been too focused on style, however, it could not have been as faithful to the original text. The NIV's success in achieving this balance made it an attractive translation to a broad spectrum of evangelical Christians worldwide. "The NIV is an English I know and speak and own, and yet, it's God's Word," CBT member Jeannine Brown said.
Churches still reap the benefits of this translation approach. Eden Baptist Church in Cambridge, United Kingdom, has a diverse congregation and has used the NIV translation for years as its pew Bible. When Pastor Julian Hardyman joined the church, he continued to use the NIV for preaching and teaching.
"We have quite an academic community, but the church is also full of children and internationals for whom English is their second language," Hardyman said. "The NIV is just spot on with its register for reaching these difference groups."
Though the language of the NIV is clear for many age groups and reading levels, the International Bible Society embarked on an effort in the early 1990s to help the NIV's youngest readers and those who speak English as second language more easily understand it. Some of the translation's longer words and sentences were still difficult for these constituencies to read.
Translators and several CBT members worked with English-language experts to create a version of the NIV written at a third-grade reading level. Matthew 13:14 went from "you will be ever seeing but never perceiving" to "You may see. But you will not learn anything." When this new version was published in 1996, they called it the New International Reader's Version, or NIrV.
"We will not freeze our text as the King James Version did, thus making our work obsolete in time to come."
—Ed Palmer, Executive Secretary, CBT, 1978
Pastors and ministry leaders from around the English-speaking world sent letters to the Bible society and the Committee on Bible Translation, offering praise and feedback on the NIV translation.
A Living Translation
From its earliest days, the NIV was meant to be a living translation. "Periodic review and revision" was written into the constitution of the CBT, and the 1968 agreement between the CBT and the New York Bible Society included a provision to finance future revisions of the text. The translators knew that new scholarship would inevitably emerge, providing fresh understanding of the original languages and texts.
Additionally, inconsistencies might have been found in the translation, and discoveries in archeology would provide new insights—and the English language would certainly continue to change long after this "modern" version was published.
"We will not freeze our text as the King James Version did," Ed Palmer said, executive director of the CBT. "Neither will we make frivolous, ho-hum changes."
In May 1979, the CBT met to consider business issues and decide how to handle proposals for revision that continued to come in, since members had welcomed constructive feedback throughout the translation process.
After the New Testament was published in 1973, a pastor in Chelmsford, England, had recommended ending John 1:36 with an exclamation point instead of a question mark, and a professor at Calvin Theological Seminary sent in a note after a student alerted him that a Greek word was translated two different ways, in Mark 1:4 and Luke 3:3.
Now, suggestions were coming in for both the Old and the New Testaments. The CBT decided to wait until the tenth anniversary of the publication of the NIV New Testament to review all of the new proposals and issue a new edition of the full Bible. In 1983, members came together at the Spanish Bible Institute in Barcelona, Spain, for the first extensive revision of the text.
They would need to work through many issues, but they had only one end goal in mind: keeping the NIV accurate, beautiful and clear to modern English-speakers.

NDMA Prompts Metformin Recall
— FDA finds certain products with excessive levels of potential carcinogen
by Kristen Monaco, Staff Writer, MedPage Today May 29, 2020
Higher-than-acceptable levels of the nitrosamine impurity N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) were detected in certain metformin products used to treat type 2 diabetes, the FDA announced on Thursday.
NDMA, a genotoxic substance and known carcinogen, is often found in contaminated water or cured and grilled foods. Although everyone is exposed to some level of NDMA, the FDA caps the acceptable daily intake limit at 96 ng. The agency set that level in 2018 when NDMA was discovered in some cardiovascular medications, determining from a variety of data sources that 96 ng/day for 70 years would result in a one in 100,000 cancer risk.
As a result, the agency contacted five manufacturing firms to recommend a voluntary recall of the extended-release formulation of metformin. So far, Apotex Corp. is the only firm to do so, issuing a voluntary recall on Wednesday of all of the company's lots of 500-mg metformin hydrochloride extended-release tablets.
However, the FDA emphasized that many other extended-release metformin products are available that do not appear to have excessive NDMA, comprising a "significant portion of the U.S. market," and these are not being recalled.
The FDA said it is working with manufacturers to ensure appropriate testing of these products and is working to prevent any subsequent metformin shortages that will come as a result of the recalls.
Metformin contamination with NDMA isn't a new issue. This announcement comes on the heels of a prior FDA announcement in December 2019 advising that low levels of NDMA were found in some metformin formulas in other countries. Following this up with its own investigation, the agency later announced that laboratory results had identified trace levels of NDMA in metformin products sold in the U.S. in February 2020. But because no samples exceeded the acceptable daily limit of 96 ng, the agency did not recommend metformin recalls at the time.
"The FDA has strict standards for safety, effectiveness, and quality, and the agency makes every effort based on science and data to help keep the U.S. drug supply safe," said Patrizia Cavazzoni, MD, acting director of the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, in a statement. "We understand that patients may have concerns about possible impurities in their medicines, and want to assure the public that we have been looking closely at this problem over many months in order to provide patients and health care professionals with clear and accurate answers."
"Now that we have identified some metformin products that do not meet our standards, we're taking action," she added. "As we have been doing since this impurity was first identified, we will communicate as new scientific information becomes available and will take further action, if appropriate."
Despite the recommendation for voluntary recalls, the FDA said all patients should continue taking their current metformin medication and should follow up with their healthcare provider to be prescribed a replacement medication.

Healing touch therapies key to wellness, success for business
October 28, 2015 /in Client Profiles, District 3 Client Profiles, Start-Up Success /by Cindy Doyl
LONGVIEW, Wash. – When people walk out of a doctor's office or health clinic they might feel a range of emotions, from relieved to worried, but rarely do they feel wonderful. Wonderful is the emotion that Barbara Sudar and partner Kim Schlais wanted to capture when they purchased Estetica Day Spa in Longview in 2008.
After working in healthcare for more than two decades, most recently setting up and managing healthcare clinics and medical practices, Sudar said she wanted to get back to the reason she went into healthcare in the first place – to make people feel good.
The common work of a health clinic – diagnosing illnesses, prescribing medications, suturing wounds, explaining and managing chronic diseases – is obviously necessary and important work, Sudar said, but in her 20 years it has rarely involved healing touch.
"I can't tell you how many people never get touched in healthcare," she said. "When you have the opportunity to touch people, they oftentimes gain the ability to heal themselves."
Buying rather than building
At Estetica Day Spa (http://www.esteticaspa.com/), services include facials, massage, body wraps, body polishing and makeup application. The spa offers reflexology, an alternative therapy in which the clinician applies pressure and manipulates the client's feet or hands to promote relaxation or healing in other parts of the body.
Kim Schlais, left, and Barbara Sudar, partners in Estetica Day Spa and E at Riverwoods.
Sudar and Schlais originally thought they'd have to build their spa from the ground up, and they sought out their local Small Business Development Center (SBDC) in 2007 for advice on how to proceed.
The Washington SBDC is a network of more than two dozen certified business advisors working in communities across the state to help small business owners who want to start, grow or transition a business. The Washington SBDC (http://www.wsbdc.org) receives support from Washington State University, the U.S. Small Business Administration and other institutions of economic development and higher education.
As they were working through their business plan to open a new spa, Schlais floated the idea of approaching an existing business owner to find out if she wanted to sell. Their SBDC advisor at the time, Susan Hoosier, encouraged them to give it a shot. When the owner of Estetica said yes, Hoosier worked with them to help make that happen.
Advice for growth
In 2014, when Sudar and Schlais decided it was time to move forward with growing their business, they returned to the Longiew SBDC and began meeting with Jerry Petrick, who became the advisor in 2011.
Sudar said she and Schlais appreciated being able to discuss strategy and next steps with Petrick.
"It can be lonely at the top," she said. "He's another person who can assist in bringing forward new ideas."
Opening a second location – with greater visibility on a high-traffic thoroughfare – was part of their five-year plan from the start, Sudar said, and Petrick helped them talk through the pros and cons of various locations. Once a decision was made, he helped them get their financial spreadsheets in order and put together loan applications.
Free counsel, coaching
Sudar said she appreciated having access to "a free-of-charge person who could help guide us to our goals. Without the SBDC we would have needed a consultant we couldn't afford."
Although they were anxious to move forward, finding financing was difficult. Their numbers were good but not always as good as lenders wanted to see.
"When the numbers looked gloomy, Jerry was still positive," Sudar said, and he was good at pointing out the progress they'd already made.
Still, she said, he wasn't so much a cheerleader as a reality check: "He pushes you, coaches you, makes suggestions and challenges you to take the next step."
New location, healthcare emphasis
It wasn't easy, but the partners' perseverance paid off and they were able to secure financing from a local community lender in early 2015. This spring they launched E at Riverwoods on Ocean Beach Highway where they have more visibility and are adjacent to other healthcare practices.
When Sudar and Schlais purchased Estetica in 2008, the business had four employees plus the owners. Now with two locations, they have 11 employees. The business is thriving, Schlais said, because clients are realizing that spa services such as facials and massage can have a significant impact on health, including reducing stress and building the immune system.
"People are being more proactive in regards to wellness," she said, and spa services are becoming part of their routine, along with eating well and exercising.
Their downtown location continues to offer a day spa experience, including full body massages and hot stones, while E at Riverwoods is a more treatment-focused, upbeat wellness center. Services at E at Riverwoods include body polishing, facials, waxing, brow and lash tinting, foot massage, reflexology and makeup. E at Riverwoods also has a small boutique with personal care items and accessories.
Sudar said their plan is to expand services at E at Riverwoods and offer additional wellness therapies, including reiki, acupressure and other forms of healing touch.
"I started out in healthcare thinking I was going to touch people," Sudar said. "This has brought me back full circle."

Britain's financial services industry could benefit from the UK's Ministry of Defence plan to shed 20,000 jobs by 2020 as it aims plug a £38bn black hole in its budget.
According to a forecast by the Lighthouse Group's chief executive officer Malcolm Streatfield, former army personnel may be fearful of what the future may hold for them career-wise but financial services could be the right fit for out-of-work servicemen.
"We have lost 10,000 people from the advice sector in the past 18 months, partially due to regulatory change within the sector, and that knowledge gap needs to be filled," said Streatfield.
"The key characteristics and core competencies of a good professional financial advisor are intrinsically linked to the qualities that form the base foundations of a good competent member of the armed forces.
"In both careers it is essential to be disciplined, determined and have great attention to detail, so the potential is there for ex-serviceman to be retrained and for them to enjoy a long and successful career as a professional financial adviser."
The Lighthouse Group has already followed suit and hired ex-flight sergeant Andy Stafford-Smith.
After swapping a career in the armed forces for the financial services sector in 1995 after two decades, he now is the recruitment director at Lighthouse Advisory Services.
"After completing 20 years' service including 2 overseas tours, 2 tours on VIP duties and having reached the rank of flight sergeant, I decided to exercise my option to leave the Royal Air Force (RAF)," said Stafford-Smith.
"Having done so, I had to decide on what career path I wanted to tread. I knew that I had discipline, drive, ambition and I enjoyed problem solving. In addition to that I enjoyed meeting people, didn't particularly want fixed hours and I wanted the opportunity to have some control over my earnings.
"After attending a resettlement course on financial services, I decided that this career path met all of my criteria and so the journey began."


Proto Electronics appreciates that the average buyer of our systems is not likely to be technically proficient in the jargon and the technologies specific to the manufacture of electronic scoreboards. Unfortunately though the operation of the scoreboards is purely technical and their performance is impacted by many external variables which need to be understood and specified. This can impact on the type of product used as well as the life expectancy of the product. The more knowledge we have, the better the understanding and the less the risks.
Proto Electronics does not warrant that the scoreboards are fit for every application and environment. Please specify and discuss the application with as much detail as possible so that we can help you to chose the most suitable product for your requirements and installation. We will advise you of the known risks of your intended application but without detailed information regarding the application, our advice may not cover your entire needs.
The displays are visible under their intended application. You need to consider the environment (indoor/outdoor), the viewing distance and the viewing angles before deciding upon the ideal screen.
The control of real-time clocks and timing for games is controlled by commercial-grade crystals. Errors may be small but can accumulate over months. It is normal to have up to a few minutes variation each month. If you require higher accuracy then we can supply temperature-compensated crystals. Please specify these in your initial enquiry.
Each RGB LED cluster is one pixel (dot) of the overall display. The spacing of the pixels determines the resolution of the image. Images can have a low resolution for far viewing distances but closer viewing requires higher resolution (closer spacing) of the pixels. Closer spaced pixels require more leds for the same size image and more leds means higher power consumption.
Legibility is dependent upon the viewing distance, the angle, the brightness of the environment, any covering that may be used, the size and resolution of the digits. It is important to consider the legibility when ordering a board.
Radio range (in metres) is dependent upon the installation and the environmental conditions including radio interference. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee any range and the range may vary depending upon the factors mentioned. We use high power transmitters and sensitive receivers but this still may not result in the required range.
We manufacture indoor and outdoor boards and these have different specifications regarding the power consumption, brightness, ingress protection etc. The electronics are designed to operate in benign environments and we cannot guarantee the operation of the products in any environment. It is very important to specify the installation location that we can suggest a product most suitable for the application. Examples of harsh environments are saunas, indoor pools etc.
The electronics are designed to operate under the specified conditions. Even for our outdoor systems, extreme weather events can cause water to enter the system. Installation of the systems should provide drainage for any water that can enter the systems.
The installation of the scoreboard always impacts on the design. For example a wall-mounted scoreboard needs front-access for maintenance and outdoor displays need to account for ingress protection,wind-loading etc. An engineer may be needed to design suitable structures, depending on your local regulations. A suitably rated power supply will be needed at the installation point.
All our prices exclude shipping and our warranty is a return-to-base warranty. Installed products are not easy to un-install and you may need to budget for any costs associated with this.
Some of our systems are battery operated. Batteries have finite numbers of charge-discharge cycles, and a finite capacity. Larger batteries are more expensive and heavy but will keep the display powered for longer. The more intense the display the more power the battery consumes and the less time it will last. Batteries take time to recharge too and the higher the capacity, the longer the re-charge times.
The power supply to the scoreboards needs to be protected from any power supply fluctuations and needs to be able to provide the required voltages and power (Watts). Generally the larger the board and the brighter the image, the more power consumed.
The scoring system is provided as standard. Any custom features need to be specified in detail and custom software developed. This is not included in the standard pricing.
We provide ongoing support and service for our products many years after their expected lifetime (typically 5-7 years). We charge for (1) Direct costs such as travel, accommodation, hire of equipment (2) Time to travel and time on-site (3) Component costs (if not covered by warranty). Our charge-out rate is similar to an electrician.


The German hifi website i-fidelity.net found the EPICON series to be a true Hollywood setup suitable for both stereo and surround.
This grand setup that will take the breath away from anyone consists of two EPICON 8's as front speakers, the EPICON VOKAL as the center, and two EPICON 6's in the back and, just to add something extra to this setup, two SUB P-10 DSS'.
According to i-fidelity.net, this EPICON setup is simply epic and truly demonstrates that musicality, plasticity and detail resolution is found in many recordings! It's delicate to experience the fine dynamic details in for example "Get Lucky" or "Give Life Back to Music" by Daft Punk, and the production of the music is a high-end recording when it streams in high resolution from the server. One cannot help it when the feets are rocking with the musical tunes. The EPICON 8's especially impressed with their astonishingly deep and solid bass and together with the perfect performance of the two SUB P-10 DSS', this setup rocks! It is absolutely amazing how clean and uncompressed the speakers sounded even when testing them to its maximum.
Regardless of what else the testers from i-fidelity.net played from the server, this EPICON setup always provided a wonderful combination of fine dynamics, without consideration to the playback volume. This EPICON surround setup is enthusiastic, especially at the upper and lower end of the frequency spectrum with a unique balance of precision and velvety, which is almost impossible to imitate.
This EPICON setup is a true master of sound! They never lost control despite superficial effects at high volume and they keep the amazing clarity in musical soundtracks, where other high-end classified speakers, lose clarity. This is a multi-channel setup for persons with exquisite taste in sound and design.
The result gave the "REFERENZ" title.

Any animal can be trained using reward (the carrot) and punishment (the stick). Purpose is the only motive that engages the human spirit and empowers us to rise above our animal natures to become intrinsically motivated. Learn how the power of purpose transforms lives, leaders and organizations.
Understand that what we have been taught about motivation is really manipulation. We have been trained like animals to respond to the extrinsic stimuli of reward and punishment which holds us captive to our needs and fears.
Understand that we are the only animals that seek meaning for our existence and that meaning is found in the fulfillment of each individual's singularly unique purpose. We have unique talents and abilities that enable us to fulfill our purpose in all aspects of our lives.
Understand that actively engaging in the fulfillment of an individual's purpose liberates the human spirit and results in intrinsic motivation. This transformational process empowers us to fulfill our own unique potential.
It was the discovery of his purpose on March 21, 1988 – to help people reach their full potential – that transformed Jim Whitt's life. The discovery of his purpose was the catalyst that launched his career as a writer, speaker, business consultant and film producer. Having personally experienced the transformational power of purpose, he developed a process to help others do the same. That process is the topic of a book, The Transformational Power of Purpose: Finding and Fulfilling Your Purpose in Life, and is available in an online course.
As a business consultant Jim developed a purpose-based approach to leadership and organizational development. That approach is the topic of another of his books, Riding for the Brand: The Power of Purposeful Leadership.
Jim's background and education have provided him with a unique perspective in the field of personal and organizational development. He grew up working on farms, ranches and feedlots, earned a degree in animal science at Oklahoma State University and spent a dozen years in sales and marketing with two Fortune 500 companies.
He views motivation and leadership from three perspectives – scientific, psychological and spiritual – which are summarized in his fundamental principle of human behavior – without a purpose our only motivation is reward and punishment.
Jim has taken his message of purpose in life and business to audiences around the world as a keynote speaker. His presentations are highly interactive and highly entertaining.
The discounted, pre-registrations for the program with the meal must be made by Tuesday, May 14th.
