Allegro Dance is a boutique style dance studio aimed at bringing premier dance training to Oakland County. Established in 2016, Allegro Dance offers private coaching and classes in Tap, Jazz, Ballet, Pointe, Hip-Hop, Creative Movement, and Mommy & Me. We offer both recreational and pre-professional divisions of classes. We have enjoyed watching our dance family grow from 75 students in May 2018 to 266 students as of January 2019! We look forward to watching our dancers progress from year to year!
Director and instructor at Allegro Dance, Jenn Montie has been teaching dance since 2003. She credits most of her training to teachers Patricia Squire Lorenz and Leif Lorenz. For the last eight years, she has been assistant director for a local youth ballet company and decided it was time to start something of her own! She has performed in and has set numerous Ballets including "The Nutcracker", "Swan Lake", "Coppelia", "Grad Ballet", and "Les Sylphides".
Since 2008, Jenn has been fully certified in STOTT Pilates Levels 1 & 2. During the day, you can find her training clients at Equilibrium Pilates Studio. Her knowledge of Pilates enables her to train dancers in a safe and effective manner.
In 2015, she became certified as an American Ballet Theatre instructor. Jenn loves to pass her passion of dance onto young dancers. Along with emphasizing proper technique, her goal is to develop artistry and confidence within each dancer. From her years of teaching, she has formatted each class to be physically and psychologically appropriate for that specific age group and level. This allows each child the best opportunity to grow, learn and develop their dance technique safely and without feeling overwhelmed. Jenn sees it as her job to ensure that every student that dances with Allegro Dance, whether a recreational dancer or a serious dancer that may want a career in dance, receives premier dance training so that they have the ability to do whatever they choose with their knowledge of dance!
Emma Seidel, a West Bloomfield native, began her dance training at local studios. In high school, she began training under Samm Shelton, Michael Lemanski, and Jodie Randolph whom she credits much of her pre-professional training. Before entering college, she was named The Sean Anderson Performing Arts Scholar from rapper Big Sean.
Emma spent her summers training under renowned artists and companies. She was awarded a full scholarship to Complexions Summers Intensive for two consecutive summers, Brighton Dance Festival, Art Lab J, and New Dance Fest. After high school, Emma decided to pursue her degree in Dance at Point Park University in Pittsburgh. She is currently a student at Wayne State University studying Public Relations with a minor in dance.
Emma can be seen in music video "Incessant Love" by singer Ashley Garza, "atleastthatshowIrememberit..." a dance on film by Sean Hoskins, a Dance Moms Commercial and a P.S.A. for CW50 featuring Upstander. She has a love for the stage and live audiences. She has performed with RobinSon Dance Company, Chelsea Ballet, Michigan Ballet Theatre, Pure Existence Dance, The Conservatory Dance Company, and X2 Dance.
Emma is the creator of G.I.R.L.S, a program focused on empowering young girls to create their dreams and have a voice. Emma is excited to join the Allegro family and eager to push your dancer to be the best individual and artist that they can be.
Allegro Dance is located at 6405 North Telegraph Road in Building H-4 inside the Bloomfield Medical Village.
Our spacious studio is equipped with modern dance floors that aid in shock absorption and help avoid injuries common among dancers.
Our lobby is equipped with a large TV that displays the dance class that parents can watch via a closed circuit camera system! We have a small boutique stocked with hand knit dance sweaters and leg warmers, tights and Allegro Dance apparel.
Across the walkway from Allegro Dance is Equilibrium Pilates Studio. Equilibrium Pilates Studio has been training clients in Pilates and Gyrotonics since 1997. Private and group sessions are available to you throughout the day so you can stay active while your child takes class at Allegro Dance!

Social Media Widgets
Our Sites include Social Media features, such as the Facebook and Twitter buttons. These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our Sites, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social Media Features and widgets are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Sites. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.
Our Sites offer publicly accessible blogs or community forums. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them indefinitely. To request removal of your PII from our blog or community forum, contact us at privacy@suddath.com.

We use reasonable measures to safeguard the security and integrity of your PII. Only authorized employees, agents and contractors (who have agreed to keep information secure and confidential) have access to this information.

To learn more about TLS, follow this link: http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/T/TLS.html
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect PII submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your PII, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Site, you can email us at privacy@suddath.com.
Accessing, Updating, Deleting and Transferring Your PII
Suddath acknowledges that you have the right to access your personal information. Upon request, Suddath will provide you with information about whether we hold any of your personal information. You can update, change or delete your PII by accessing Relocation Zone and signing in using your username and password. Once you sign into Relocation Zone, you can update your PII by clicking on the "My Profile" button and then the "Start Change Request" button. You also have the right to request a copy of all PII that you have provided to us, as well as, have Suddath transmit such personal data directly to another controller.
If you forget your password when signing into the Relocation Zone, there is a link that you can click on which will email you a new password. If you forget your username, please contact your relocation counselor.
When the legal basis for processing your PII is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time. In certain circumstances, however, we may be required by law to retain your personal information or may need to retain your personal information in order to continue providing a service, resolve disputes or enforce our agreements. When the purpose for processing your PII is based on contract, we may not be able to continue providing services to you without such personal information and we may have to terminate our relationship.
Please note that for personal information about you that we have obtained or received for processing on behalf of Client (controllers who determined the means and purposes of processing) all such requests should be made to Client directly. We will honor and support any instructions they provide us with respect to your personal information.
Our Service Platform
For corporate transferees, Suddath collects information under the direction of its Clients and has no direct contractual relationship with the individuals whose personal data it processes. If you are an employee of one of our Clients and do not want Suddath to process your PII, please contact your employer (Suddath's Client) directly. For COD customers, if you do not wish Suddath to process your PII, please contact Suddath as provided in the "Contact Us" section below. Suddath may transfer PII to companies that help us provide our services. Transfers of PII to subsequent third parties are covered by the service agreements with our Clients.

Emails generated by the Sites are for the sole purpose of facilitating your relocation services. An opt-out option is available to you through your relocation consultant. Opting out of emails related to your relocation services may cause interruptions in, and/or loss of, relocation benefits provided to you by your employer.

Children's Online Privacy
The Sites are not directed at or intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data on the Sites directly from children and will destroy such information if we become aware that a child has disclosed such information to us without consent from a parent or guardian.
California Civil Code Section § 1798.83 permits users of our sites or services that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to privacy@suddath.com or contact us as described in this Privacy Notice.
Currently, various browsers offer a "do not track" or "DNT" option which sends a signal to websites visited by the user about the user's browser DNT preference setting. We do not currently commit to responding to browsers' DNT signals with respect to the Sites, in part, because no common industry standard for DNT has been adopted, including no consistent standard of interpreting user intent.
We reserve the right to modify this Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this Policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page. Any changes to the Policy will only apply to activities and information on a going forward, not retroactive, basis.

Boats!
Boats! has been played on NTS in shows including Jimmy's Punk Show, featured first on 27 September 2017. Songs played include Good For Good.
The name Boats! is used by two distinctly different bands:
A pop punk band from Sacramento, California
An indie-pop band from Winnipeg, Manitoba
BOATS! play punk that has influences of everything from 70's bands like Buzzcocks to more current bands like The Briefs. They keep it short, simple and snappy with most songs clocking in at around two minutes. They have toured relentlessly since their first show in August 2007 (they played nearly 100 shows in 2008 alone.) The…

Shannon is a former teacher turned SAHM to 3 active boys. She is always on the lookout for ways to celebrate the special days and find joy in the hard ones, especially because motherhood (and life!) seem full of them sometimes! She loves to laugh and play with her family and can plan a mean birthday party for her kids!
Joy in the Works shared a photo.
Not only would my boys love this activity, but I would love the opportunity to eat Cadbury Eggs afterwards! 🤣 (And if you aren't a fan of Cadbury Creme Eggs, try another Easter candy!)I've got an Easter themed challenge for you today!
Joy in the Works shared a post.
What a fun, easy art idea that even my boys would love!
Joy in the Works shared a School holidays VS School days - we need sleep!.
This has always been a favorite activity in our house and it's so easy to make!!

Geeks OUT
9th & Olympus
Beloved Freaks.
Buffalo, New York. July 2nd, 1996. Buffalo Memorial Auditorium. The first time seeing Garbage live was actually my first concert ever. Shirley and co. were the supporting act for The Smashing Pumpkins on their Infinite Sadness tour.
I went to the show with my best friend at the time. He was a pseudo-metal head who lived across the street and was two or three years my senior. We initially bonded over our love of alternative rock music… Garbage being no exception. I looked up to him like a he was a cool and rebellious big brother. I remember him introducing me to new music to obsess over with every shipment he received from Columbia House.
Garbage (Phoenix Concert Theatre 05/28/2012)
The show was to be one of the last handful of events at the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium. Later that night, seats would be ripped up as the crowd surged when the Pumpkins went into "1979." I don't recall exactly where our seats were but I know they were probably about halfway up from the floor of the arena slightly to the right of the stage. People piled into the Aud, filling it to capacity. The weirdos. The outcasts. The kids who were always picked last for dodgeball. The bookworms. The queers. The freaks. All of them coming together because they all find support and acceptance in the music of a fiery-haired, Scottish "supervixen" and her bandmates.
Toronto, Ontario. May 28th, 2012. Phoenix Concert Theatre. "This song is for the freaks," Shirley Manson would coo into the microphone before segueing into "Cherry Lips" from their third studio album, beautifulgarbage. She would also go around to each band member and ask them what made them freaks in their younger years. Steve Marker responded that he was a member of a marching band and Butch Vig smoked a lot of pot.
If there is one thing to be said about Garbage, it's that they have always welcomed and championed their "beloved freaks" and those who "may not have made the football team." They have always had a way of making an outcast feel less, well, outcasty. Returning to a tedious world of normalcy is always more bearable after immersing yourself in a big pile of Garbage.

Fathers' Music Syndrome.
To quote Portlandia: "Do you remember the 90s?"
The programming on MTV was relevant. Britpop reached its height. Kids roamed around in wide-leg jeans and Airwalk sneakers listening to their Walkmans (or Discmans if you were fortunate enough to have a decent allowance). Music was a genuine artform instead of a mass-produced marketing gimmick that humps on autotune the way a dog humps a leg.
Garbage "Blood for Poppies"
If you are like me, refreshing every music blog/website/tumblr from Spin to Pitchfork and Consequence of Sound to Brooklyn Vegan, then you are well aware that the decade that paved the way for the modern indie-rock scene to come to fruition is making quite the resurgence.
Garbage will be touring for the first time since 2007 and has been selling out shows in mere minutes of the tickets being made available. Mazzy Star (dream pop pioneers who were Beach House before Beach House was Beach House) reunited to release their first material since 1996 with promises of a full-length record and tour to follow. Melancholic waif, Fiona Apple, releases her fourth record (The Idler Wheel is wiser than the Driver of the Screw, and Whipping Cords will serve you more than Ropes will ever do a.k.a. The Idler Wheel…) in June just prior to a summer tour that takes her across the United States and Canada. Irish alternative band, The Cranberries, also released a new record after a 10-year hiatus.
These were some of the big names in music in the 90s that helped define who I was during my high school years. In fact, Garbage was the first live show that I saw (they opened for The Smashing Pumpkins at the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium in July of 1996).
My first reaction to the news that some of my favorite bands were returning to the spotlight and releasing new material was to wonder if I was suffering from what I call "Fathers' Music Syndrome." If you grew up in a household where your father was a music junkie, you might have a pretty good idea of what it is that I am referring to.
I will be the first to admit that when I was a teenager and engrossed in the music that was popular at the time (namely Seattle-based grunge rock), I couldn't help but throw a side-eye of judgment at my father when he would pull out records by The Beach Boys or The Rolling Stones (it would be a few more years before my love for music developed enough and allowed me to appreciate these rock-n-roll legends). This was the music he grew up with. The music he loved. I remember being taken to see The Beach Boys at Pilot Field (currently Coca-Cola Field). I remember thinking to myself that only washed-up bands must play at minor league baseball games.
Have Fiona Apple, Garbage, et al become my (our) own "Fathers' Music Syndrome?" Save for the fact that they can still sell out shows, still record amazing music, and have cult followings decades later, there's still that part of me (us) that finds comfort in the familiar sounds of a youthful era. I'll be the first to admit that I would be the first in line to see Courtney Love play a free show at a baseball diamond.
Ironically, Hole just started playing on my iPod.

Site Writing Vol. 2
2022 Site Writing Volume 2 brings together new pieces of writing by participants who took part in an eight-week course at the Sainsbury Centre led by Sam Jordison.Now in its second year, the course borrows its name from the architecture critic Jane Rendell's book Site-Writing: The Architecture of Art Criticism (2010), in which she proposes a model of writing about art that takes into account a subject's 'position' in its manifold senses: physical position, emotional position, ideological and political position. In doing so, this innovative approach to art criticism engages with inner concerns and broader ideas, drawing on the experience of, and encounter with, an artwork – where and when we encounter it, with who, what it provokes in us, reminds us of, makes us feel, prompts us to think.

Marloes Coenen seeks Bellator 163 win to set up 'bad blood' rematch with Alexis Dufresne
November 2, 2016 7:45 pm ET
Marloes Coenen has experienced a handful of losses during her nearly 16-year MMA career. She said none were more physically or emotionally difficult to digest than her shocking upset defeat to Alexis Dufresne at Bellator 155 in May.
Coenen (23-7 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) has twice shared the cage with Cristiane "Cyborg" Justino, falling short by TKO both times. She said neither of those losses, or even her Strikeforce title-fight loss to Miesha Tate in 2011, compared to the anguish she was forced to endure when 7-1 underdog Dufresne (6-2 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) caught her in a triangle-armbar submission inside the first round of their matchup earlier this year.
"It was really hard for me," Coenen told MMAjunkie. "I've lost before but I've always had an excuse for myself. I never said it on social media or anything, but I always knew why I lost. This time it was really my own fault. It really hurt to my core. It hurt a very long time. Not only my arm, but mentally it hurt a really long time."
Coenen will attempt to redeem herself on Friday when she meets Bellator newcomer Talita Nogueira (6-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) at Bellator 163, which takes place Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. The featherweight matchup opens the Spike-televised main card following prelims on MMAjunkie.
For previous losses, Coenen said she could justify the outcome to herself because of a medical condition she kept private. The Dutch fighter said she was diagnosed with a condition that stemmed from grossly overtraining in the lead-up to her fights, and the result would be a severe lack of energy when she stepped inside the cage for competition.
That issue was rectified in recent years, though, and Coenen said she's felt better than ever going into all her fights since joining the Bellator roster in October 2014. That's what made the loss to Dufresne so tough to digest, she said. There was nowhere to point the finger other than a deficiency in focus and technique in the moment where Dufresne wrapped her up in the fight-ending submission.
"I had an issue for about a decade and I never spoke about it because I would go see doctors and specialists and all that," Coenen said. "After 10 years of searching I found the answer and it was just being overtrained. I had severe side effects from being overtrained, so when I lost in the cage I knew why: I had no energy. This time I have good health now. My cardio is great. This time I can't say that. It was my own fault. That's why it hurt that much.
"It screws up your liver and you're very tired. When I was 20 you could get contractions in the muscles in my body and I couldn't stop it. … It hit me that I wasn't sick, it was just being overtrained. I changed a lot of things in my routine. Less hours in the gym, more rest, better diet. For Miesha, I was overtrained I had to diet to 135 and that was a very difficult combination. I never had energy to be in the cage."
Although the loss temporarily crushed her spirit, Coenen eventually came out on the other end of it with a positive mindset. She's managed to rebound from every career loss in a successful manner, and she intends on doing that again at Bellator 163.
"As a human being it helped me to grow, because when you have so much pain you finally learn," Coenen said. "All the fighters have big losses. Ronda Rousey hurt her jaw, Miesha Tate lost her title to (Amanda) Nunes. As a person it helps you to grow and as a fighter it gave a lot of motivation. It was the kind of motivation I didn't have for years because I've been doing this for 16 years on a professional level. Sometimes the motivation goes. I'm so motivated to redeem myself and that's the upside of the loss."
Despite the fact she's moved on to a new fight and new opponent, Coenen hasn't forgotten about Dufresne and her conduct both before and after their bout. Dufresne missed weight by five pounds for the fight then taunted Coenen afterward by claiming the weight advantage had no impact on the result.
Whether that's true or not is up to interpretation, but Coenen said her business with Dufresne is not yet over. She wants the rematch and chance to avenge her only loss in more than three years, but said she doesn't know if Dufresne is interested in trying to repeat her previous performance and prove the loss was no upset.
"They offered her a rematch and she declined," Coenen said. "She has a really big mouth and I also think she knows it would not happen again. If I'm fighting someone and I beat the person and they want to fight me again, I will fight them. Then I will fight them until they don't want to fight me anymore. She has a different mindset picking fights and stuff like that. She's afraid of losing if she fights me again.
"In my carer, sometimes I fought a fighter three times. I don't care. I'll fight you until you don't want to fight me. I think she's very disrespectful to the game. She signed a contract saying she would be on weight on a certain day. If you don't make it three times in a row it tells me you don't have a lot of respect for the game, for the fans, for Bellator and for no one. Not for yourself as well. There's still some bad blood between us and I hope I find her on the other side of the cage again."
A rematch with Dufresne almost certainly won't materialize unless Coenen can get the job done at Bellator 163. Her opponent, Nogueira, is largely unheralded and hasn't competed in a pro bout since December 2013. Nevertheless, Coenen said she is taking the undefeated Brazilian seriously, because at 35,"Rumina" simply can't afford another setback.
"After this loss the only person I wanted to fight was Alexis but she refused to fight unless it was for a title," Coenen said. "Then they gave me this fight, and if I win I've proven myself again that I'm still a top fighter. That's what I'm trying to do right now. I have my hands full. All that's on my eyes in Nov. 4th and whatever happens I will look at the opportunities there."

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac takeover causes…
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac takeover causes mortgage rates to tumble
By Steve Johnson | Mercury News, Bay Area News Group
September 9, 2008 at 7:19 a.m.
The federal government's takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac sent mortgage rates tumbling in California, raising hopes that the state's severely ailing housing market will get a boost.
After the federal action Sunday, consumers with outstanding credit Monday were offered rates as low as 5.375 percent on 30-year fixed mortgages, said Cathy Warshawsky, president of the Silicon Valley chapter of the California Association of Mortgage Brokers. That was down nearly a full percentage point "" a difference that would amount to more than a $200 decrease in monthly payments on a $400,000 loan.
"It's been absolutely incredible," Warshawsky said. "None of us expected this to happen. That ought to give people some serious hope."
The stock market also roared to life on the news, sending the Dow Jones average up about 290 points.
Not all mortgage rates dropped by the same amount, however. Some hovered in the 5.63 to 5.75 percent range Monday, according to a check by Warshawsky's office.
Moreover, some experts cautioned that the long-term implications of the government's action remain uncertain and that it could take months, if not years, for housing prices to recover in places like the Bay Area.
Edward Leamer, an economist and director of the University of California-Los Angeles Anderson Forecast, which closely monitors the state's financial condition, said the takeover was not a silver-bullet solution. He said the overall drop in mortgage rates will probably be modest and not enough to jolt the housing market awake anytime soon.
Nonetheless, if the federal government hadn't stepped in to rescue the mortgage finance giants, the housing mess would have worsened, Leamer added.
"If we had allowed Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac to collapse, interest rates would have gone a lot higher and the loans would have been just completely frozen up," he said. "The housing market, which was already deeply troubled, would have become incredibly bad. We just couldn't let that happen."
That view is widely shared by economists, who say the housing market is proving difficult to stimulate because of a combination of factors.
Banks, burdened by the mortgage crisis, have been reluctant to lend money to prospective home buyers, causing home prices to drop precipitously. At the same time, financially strapped homeowners whose property values have dropped have been unable to refinance their fast-rising, adjustable-rate mortgages at more affordable rates.
Many homeowners have been forced into foreclosure, causing a financial loss for their lenders and making banks even more skittish about offering housing loans.
California will be a major beneficiary of the federal takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, according to Joel Singer, executive vice president of the California Association of Realtors.
Housing prices remain depressed in many parts of the state, including the Bay Area, although sales have been picking up due to the large number of sharply discounted foreclosed homes on the market.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac support the housing market by either buying mortgages directly from lenders, or guaranteeing their repayment, which helps increase the amount of money available for home loans. Since they now account for most of the mortgages offered in California, keeping those institutions financially sound "means the recovery we're seeing should continue and possibly accelerate," Singer said.
Another person cheered by the federal government's action is John Holmgren, a mortgage broker in Oakland. He hopes many people who have been sitting on the sidelines of the housing market will see it as a signal that it is now safe to jump in.
"It's a psychological benefit," he said. "It improves the confidence that consumers have in the mortgage finance system."

I enjoyed the game so far. Yes, I wanted to strangle the cat at first, but either I got used to its voice, or its voice actually got better.
I loved the graphics, and most of the voices, but the music wasn't enthralling enough to keep me from turning it off and playing some Bach.
The demo kept minimizing, and I had to click on the game's icon in my taskbar. It always came right back, right where I left off. (I've reported it in the tech thread.) Because of the many reports of the demo working well, but the purchased game freezing, I'm going to wait for a fix before I buy it. I will buy it, though.

With a long distance to travel, an Australia economy flight is tiring. Plus there's the jet lag. Choosing a better seat may be worth the money.
Business fares can be two or three times more expensive, sometimes even more. But the service is so much better and flight attendants are there for you all the way. After all there are not that many business seats on the airplane.
So what fare to choose?
It all depends on your funds and what you want to do with them.
If you are looking for cheap airfares and want to save to be able to do more when you get "Down Under", then fly economy. But expect narrow seats that don't recline very much and little leg room.
Your best option is an aisle seat. You will be able to get up and stretch. But the big planes can have up to 5 seats in a row, so if you get a middle one you will have to ask 2 persons to let you out. Imagine if they sleep - they won't be happy.
If you can choose your seat for free when you book, make sure to check the seating plan and take the offer.
But lately this offer is being phased out by most airlines, as they are now charging an additional fee for allowing you to make your own selection. And the fee is not per journey but per flight.
You may be able though to choose your seat 24 hours in advance. But if you think that 24 hours is good enough, think again. More often than not, you start your check in online and find out that a seat has already been allocated for you.
So what? The button to change your seat is there, so you click it. The result - the seat plan comes up and all the seats appear booked except the one already allocated to you. This is the new reality of the airlines industry and it does not refer to low cost airlines, it is a practice that we found with the good old traditional ones.
But airlines are finding innovative ways to advertise a lower price and then charge you more for the frills.
And having the privilege to choose your own seat early is now considered a frill. If you have stopovers and change planes, you may have to pay extra for the seat chosen for each leg of your trip.
There is always the option to be at the check-in early, and to hope that not all the best places have been allocated. It can really be up to the person at the counter to help you.

What expecting moms should know about the COVID-19 vaccine
Authored by: Ross Heaton, MD, OB/GYN, Allina Health
Updated on 6/29/2021.
Moms will do anything to keep their kids and babies safe, and that's especially true during a pandemic. When it comes to the COVID-19 vaccine, you might have a lot of questions—especially if you are pregnant or may become pregnant soon.
Can I get the COVID-19 vaccine if I am pregnant?
Pregnant or nursing mothers were not included in the initial COVID-19 vaccine studies. Because of this, you may read some conflicting information about the recommendations for this vaccine in pregnant women. However, many health organizations in the United States such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are encouraging pregnant women to get the vaccine because of the high risk of illness or death associated with COVID-19 infection. Professional organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Gynecologists and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine also recommend that pregnant women consider getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
It is also important to note that the vaccines that should be avoided during pregnancy are usually vaccines that contain the live virus. In this case, the COVID-19 vaccine does not contain a live virus, nor does it have an inactive form of the live virus inside. You cannot get COVID-19 from the COVID-19 vaccines.
If I am thinking about getting pregnant soon, should I get the vaccine?
Yes. Pregnant women are at higher risk for severe COVID-19 disease than other non-pregnant women. Because of the increased risk of mortality and complications from a COVID-19 infection during pregnancy, you should talk to your physician about obtaining vaccine. Supply of the COVID-19 vaccine is good and many locations are vaccinating pregnant women routinely. Call ahead or check the website of the place you will be vaccinated to schedule yours.
If I have the vaccine, can it help protect my baby during pregnancy or after birth?
Vaccines, such as influenza or TDAP, can help protect babies from getting sick – similar to how the flu shot can protect your baby.
This happens through something called passive immunity. Passive immunity is when mom's antibodies could be passed to their baby before birth, which then helps protect their little one after birth. While more research is needed, many experts believe this could be the case with the COVID-19 vaccine, too.
Can I get the COVID-19 vaccine if I am breastfeeding? Can the vaccine be passed to my baby through breastfeeding?
Yes. There is no evidence that the COVID-19 virus from either a mom's infection or vaccine passes through breast milk to the baby. Because of past research on vaccines, experts believe the COVID-19 vaccine will not harm a breastfeeding child or mom. This is especially true when you compare the risks of getting COVID-19. In fact, it's possible that a mom that received the vaccine may be able to help transfer immunity to their child who did not receive the vaccine.
Will the COVID-19 vaccine affect my fertility?
No. According to Dr. Ross Heaton, "This is a fear mongering myth with zero scientific basis that is spreading around the internet and social media like wildfire."
We know that vaccines, including the COVID-19 vaccine, will not affect fertility. In fact, women who participated in the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech trials have gotten pregnant after getting vaccinated. So, while we are confident that the COVID-19 vaccine will not affect fertility, we do know that some infections caused by getting sick with COVID-19 can affect fertility.
Talk with your care team about whether the COVID-19 vaccine is right for you. In general, experts believe that the benefits of pregnant and lactating women getting vaccinated against the virus that causes COVID-19 far outweigh any theoretical risks.

Lena Pearl Neff (March 7, 1898 – until his death)
Glenn Hammond Curtiss (May 21, 1878 – July 23, 1930) was an American aviation and motorcycling pioneer, and a founder of the U.S. aircraft industry. He began his career as a bicycle racer and builder before moving on to motorcycles. As early as 1904, he began to manufacture engines for airships. In 1908, Curtiss joined the Aerial Experiment Association, a pioneering research group, founded by Alexander Graham Bell at Beinn Bhreagh, Nova Scotia, to build flying machines.
Curtiss made the first officially witnessed flight in North America, won a race at the world's first international air meet in France, and made the first long-distance flight in the United States. His contributions in designing and building aircraft led to the formation of the Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company, now part of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. His company built aircraft for the U.S. Army and Navy, and, during the years leading up to World War I, his experiments with seaplanes led to advances in naval aviation. Curtiss civil and military aircraft were predominant in the interwar and World War II eras.

Birth and early career[edit]
Curtiss was born in 1878 in Hammondsport, New York, to Frank Richmond Curtiss and Lua Andrews. Although his formal education extended only to eighth grade, his early interest in mechanics and inventions was evident at his first job at the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company (later Eastman Kodak Company) in Rochester, New York.[1] He invented a stencil machine adopted at the plant and later built a rudimentary camera to study photography.[1]
Marriage and family[edit]
On March 7, 1898, Curtiss married Lena Pearl Neff (1879–1951), daughter of Guy L. Neff and Jenny M. Potter, in Hammondsport, New York. They had two children: Carlton N. Curtiss (1901–1902) and Glenn Hammond Curtiss (1912–1969)
Bicycles and motorcycles[edit]
Glenn Curtiss on his V-8 motorcycle in 1907
Curtiss began his career as a Western Union bicycle messenger, a bicycle racer, and bicycle-shop owner. In 1901, he developed an interest in motorcycles when internal-combustion engines became more available. In 1902, Curtiss began manufacturing motorcycles with his own single-cylinder engines. His first motorcycle's carburetor was adapted from a tomato soup can containing a gauze screen to pull the gasoline up by capillary action.[2][3][4] In 1903, he set a motorcycle land speed record at 64 miles per hour (103 km/h) for one mile (1.6 km). When E.H. Corson of the Hendee Mfg Co (manufacturers of Indian motorcycles) visited Hammondsport in July 1904, he was amazed that the entire Curtiss motorcycle enterprise was located in the back room of the modest "shop". Corson's motorcycles had just been trounced the week before by "Hell Rider" Curtiss in an endurance race from New York to Cambridge, Maryland.[5]
On January 24, 1907,[6] Curtiss set an unofficial world record of 136.36 miles per hour (219.45 km/h), on a 40 horsepower (30 kW) 269 cu in (4,410 cc) V-8-powered motorcycle of his own design and construction in Ormond Beach, Florida.[7][self-published source?] The air-cooled F-head engine was intended for use in aircraft.[8] He remained "the fastest man in the world", the title the newspapers gave him, until 1911,[9] and his motorcycle record was not broken until 1930. This motorcycle is now in the Smithsonian Institution.[10] Curtiss's success at racing strengthened his reputation as a leading maker of high-performance motorcycles and engines.[11]

Aviation pioneer[edit]
Curtiss, motor expert[edit]
In 1904, Curtiss became a supplier of engines for the California "aeronaut" Tom Baldwin. In that same year, Baldwin's California Arrow, powered by a Curtiss 9 HP V-twin motorcycle engine, became the first successful dirigible in America.[12]
In 1907, Alexander Graham Bell invited Curtiss to develop a suitable engine for heavier-than-air flight experimentation. Bell regarded Curtiss as "the greatest motor expert in the country"[13] and invited Curtiss to join his Aerial Experiment Association (AEA).
AEA aircraft experiments[edit]

Between 1908 and 1910, the AEA produced four aircraft, each one an improvement over the last. Curtiss primarily designed the AEA's third aircraft, Aerodrome #3, the famous June Bug, and became its test pilot, undertaking most of the proving flights. On July 4, 1908, he flew 5,080 ft (1,550 m) to win the Scientific American Trophy and its $2,500 prize.[14] This was considered to be the first pre-announced public flight of a heavier-than-air flying machine in America. The flight of the June Bug propelled Curtiss and aviation firmly into public awareness. On June 8, 1911 Curtiss received U.S. Pilot's License #1 from the Aero Club of America, because the first batch of licenses were issued in alphabetical order; Wilbur Wright received license #5. At the culmination of the Aerial Experiment Association's experiments, Curtiss offered to purchase the rights to Aerodrome #3, essentially using it as the basis of his "Curtiss No. 1, the first of his production series of pusher aircraft.[15]
The pre-war years[edit]
Aviation competitions[edit]
During the 1909–1910 period, Curtiss employed a number of demonstration pilots, including Eugene Ely, Charles K. Hamilton, Augustus Post, and Hugh Robinson. Aerial competitions and demonstration flights across North America helped to introduce aviation to a curious public; Curtiss took full advantage of these occasions to promote his products.[16] This was a busy period for Glenn Curtiss.
Souvenir postcard of the Grande Semaine d'Aviation, 1909
In August 1909, Curtiss took part in the Grande Semaine d'Aviation aviation meeting at Reims, France, organized by the Aéro-Club de France. The Wrights, who were selling their machines to customers in Germany at the time, decided not to compete in person. Two Wright aircraft (modified with a landing gear) were at the meet, but they did not win any events. Flying his No. 2 biplane, Curtiss won the overall speed event, the Gordon Bennett Cup, completing the 20-km (12.5-mile) course in just under 16 minutes at a speed of 46.5 mph (74.8 km/h), six seconds faster than runner-up Louis Blériot. [N 1]
On May 29, 1910, Curtiss flew from Albany to New York City to make the first long-distance flight between two major cities in the U.S. For this 137-mile (220 km) flight, which he completed in just under four hours including two stops to refuel, he won a $10,000 prize offered by publisher Joseph Pulitzer and was awarded permanent possession of the Scientific American trophy.
In June 1910, Curtiss provided a simulated bombing demonstration to naval officers at Hammondsport. Two months later, Lt. Jacob E. Fickel demonstrated the feasibility of shooting at targets on the ground from an aircraft with Curtiss serving as pilot. One month later, in September, he trained Blanche Stuart Scott, who was possibly the first American woman pilot. The fictional character Tom Swift, who first appeared in 1910 in Tom Swift and His Motor Cycle and Tom Swift and His Airship, has been said to have been based on Glenn Curtiss.[19] The Tom Swift books are set in a small town on a lake in upstate New York.[20]
Naval aviation[edit]
On November 14, 1910, Curtiss demonstration pilot Eugene Ely took off from a temporary platform mounted on the forward deck of the cruiser USS Birmingham. His successful takeoff and ensuing flight to shore marked the beginning of a relationship between Curtiss and the Navy that remained significant for decades. At the end of 1910, Curtiss established a winter encampment at San Diego to teach flying to Army and Naval personnel. Here, he trained Lt. Theodore Ellyson, who became U.S. Naval Aviator #1, and three Army officers, 1st Lt. Paul W. Beck, 2nd Lt. George E. M. Kelly, and 2nd Lt. John C. Walker, Jr., in the first military aviation school. (Chikuhei Nakajima, founder of Nakajima Aircraft Company, was a 1912 graduate.) The original site of this winter encampment is now part of Naval Air Station North Island and is referred to by the Navy as "The Birthplace of Naval Aviation".
Through the course of that winter, Curtiss was able to develop a float (pontoon) design that enabled him to take off and land on water. On January 26, 1911, he flew the first seaplane from the water in the United States.[21] Demonstrations of this advanced design were of great interest to the Navy, but more significant, as far as the Navy was concerned, was Eugene Ely successfully landing his Curtiss pusher (the same aircraft used to take off from the Birmingham) on a makeshift platform mounted on the rear deck of the battleship USS Pennsylvania. This was the first arrester-cable landing on a ship and the precursor of modern-day carrier operations. On January 28, 1911, Ellyson took off in a Curtiss "grass cutter" to become the first Naval aviator.
"FIRM BELIEVERS IN TRANS-ATLANTIC AVIATION", Porte and Curtiss on the cover of Aero and Hydro, 14 March 1914
Curtiss custom built floats and adapted them onto a Model D so it could take off and land on water to prove the concept. On February 24, 1911, Curtiss made his first amphibious demonstration at North Island by taking off and alighting on both land and water. Back in Hammondsport, six months later in July 1911, Curtiss sold the U.S. Navy their first aircraft, the A-1 Triad. The A-1, which was primarily a seaplane, was equipped with retractable wheels, also making it the first amphibious aircraft. Curtiss trained the Navy's first pilots and built their first aircraft. For this, he is considered in the US to be "The Father of Naval Aviation". The Triad was immediately recognized as so obviously useful, it was purchased by the U.S. Navy, Russia, Japan, Germany, and Britain. Curtiss won the Collier Trophy for designing this aircraft.[22]
Around this time, Curtiss met retired British naval officer John Cyril Porte, who was looking for a partner to produce an aircraft with him to win the Daily Mail prize for the first transatlantic crossing. In 1912, Curtiss produced the two-seat Flying Fish, a larger craft that became classified as a flying boat because the hull sat in the water; it featured an innovative notch (known as a "step") in the hull that Porte recommended for breaking clear of the water at takeoff. Curtiss correctly surmised that this configuration was more suited to building a larger long-distance craft that could operate from water, and was also more stable when operating from a choppy surface. Porte and Curtiss produced the America in 1914, a larger flying boat with two engines, for the transatlantic crossing.
World War I and later[edit]
World War I[edit]
With the start of World War I, Porte returned to service in the Royal Navy, which subsequently purchased several models of the America, now called the H-4, from Curtiss. Porte licensed and further developed the designs, constructing a range of Felixstowe long-range patrol aircraft, and from his experience passed along improvements to the hull to Curtiss. The later British designs were sold to the U.S. forces, or built by Curtiss as the F5L. The Curtiss factory also built a total of 68 "Large Americas", which evolved into the H-12, the only American-designed and -built aircraft to see combat in World War I.

As 1916 approached, the United States was feared to be drawn into the conflict. The Army's Aviation Section, U.S. Signal Corps ordered the development of a simple, easy-to-fly-and-maintain, two-seat trainer. Curtiss created the JN-4 "Jenny" for the Army, and the N-9 seaplane version for the Navy. They were some of the most famous products of the Curtiss company, and thousands were sold to the militaries of the United States, Canada, and Britain. Civilian and military aircraft demand boomed, and the company grew to employ 18,000 workers in Buffalo and 3,000 workers in Hammondsport.
In 1917, the U.S. Navy commissioned Curtiss to design a long-range, four-engined flying boat large enough to hold a crew of five, which became known as the Curtiss NC. The four NC flying boats attempted a transatlantic crossing in 1919, and the NC-4 successfully crossed. It is now on permanent display in the National Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, Florida.
Patent dispute[edit]
See also: Wright brothers patent war
A patent lawsuit by the Wright brothers against Curtiss in 1909 continued until it was resolved during World War I. Since the last Wright aircraft, the Wright Model L, was a single prototype of a "scouting" aircraft, made in 1916, the U.S. government, desperately short of combat aircraft, pressured both firms to resolve the dispute. In 1917, the U.S. government offered a large and profitable contract to Curtiss to build aircraft for the U.S. Army.
Post-World War I[edit]
Peace brought cancellation of wartime contracts. In September 1920, the Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company underwent a financial reorganization. Glenn Curtiss cashed out his stock in the company for $32 million and retired to Florida.[23] He continued on as a director of the company, but served only as an adviser on design. Clement M. Keys gained control of the company, which later became the nucleus of a large group of aviation companies.[24]
Later years[edit]
Curtiss and his family moved to Florida in the 1920s, where he founded 18 corporations, served on civic commissions, and donated extensive land and water rights. He co-developed the city of Hialeah with James Bright and developed the cities of Opa-locka and Miami Springs, where he built a family home, known variously as the Miami Springs Villas House, Dar-Err-Aha, MSTR No. 2, or Glenn Curtiss House.[25] The Glenn Curtiss House, after years of disrepair and frequent vandalism, is being refurbished to serve as a museum in his honor.[26]
His frequent hunting trips into the Florida Everglades led to a final invention, the Adams Motor "Bungalo", a forerunner of the modern recreational vehicle trailer (named after his business partner and half-brother, G. Carl Adams). Shortly before his death, he designed a tailless aircraft with a V-shaped wing and tricycle landing gear that he hoped could be sold in the price range of a family car.[27]
The Wright Aeronautical Corporation, a successor to the original Wright Company, ultimately merged with the Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor Company on July 5, 1929, forming the Curtiss-Wright company, shortly before Curtiss's death.[22]
Traveling to Rochester to contest a lawsuit brought by former business partner August Herring, Curtiss suffered an attack of appendicitis in court. He died on July 23, 1930, in Buffalo, New York,[25] of complications from an appendectomy. His funeral service was held at St. James Episcopal Church in his home town, Hammondsport, with interment in the family plot at Pleasant Valley Cemetery in Hammondsport.
By an act of Congress on March 1, 1933, Curtiss was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, which now resides in the Smithsonian. Curtiss was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1964, the International Aerospace Hall of Fame in 1965,[28] the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America in 1990, the Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1998,[29] and the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2003. The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum has a collection of Curtiss's original documents[30] as well as a collection of airplanes, motorcycles and motors.[31] LaGuardia Airport was originally called Glenn H. Curtiss Airport when it began operation in 1929.
The Glenn H. Curtiss Museum in Hammondsport is dedicated to Curtiss's life and work.

Midlife, called by some "the adolescence of adulthood," is known as a time when people implode—men do foolish things with their discretionary income and women become "desperate housewives." But you don't have to travel that path. Midlife can also be a very productive time of life—a time to develop true character and to acquire the virtue of goodness. The author takes a direct and intelligent approach to revealing the key to pursuing authentic character at midlife, which is to be good for goodness' sake. Written in a conversational tone, Fenton offers seven values that lead to authentic character.
In Mastering Church Finances, Richard L. Bergstrom, Gary Fenton, and Wayne A. Pohl explore how you can keep money from getting in the way and use finances instead to further the kingdom. They discuss such matters as how to keep the finance committee ministry-minded, how and when to delegate financial affairs, how to handle designated gifts, how to deal with financial mismanagement, and how to determine staff salaries.
It is true, as Paul said, that "the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil," but this book shows another truth: well-managed money can become the root of much good.
Pastors are not immune to the struggles of mid-life careers. Over the years many pastors slowly lose the full-hearted passion and vision of their original call to serve God. The tendency is to slow down, retire on the job, or stop growing. Like a low-grade temperature, its symptoms are difficult to detect and seldom get reported, but its effects are destructive and tragic. Longtime pastor Gary Fenton writes candidly about the changes of ministry at mid-life and how pastors can finish strong in the second half. He shows pastors how to keep their ministries vibrant at any age and how to use their gifts to their full potential.

The House of Dunkeld, in Scottish Gaelic Dùn Chailleann (meaning Fort of the Caledonii or of the Caledonians), is a historiographical and genealogical construct to illustrate the clear succession of Scottish kings from 1034 to 1040 and from 1058 to 1290. The line is also variously referred to by historians as "The Canmores", and "MacMalcolm".
Sir Iain Moncreiffe made the case that Crínán of Dunkeld actually belonged to a Scottish sept of Irish Cenél Conaill royal dynasty, a branch of the Uí Néill. This of course would not exclude his descendants from also being a (female line) continuation of the Cenél nGabráin through Bethóc.
Genealogically the Dunkeld dynasty is based on Duncan I of Scotland being of a different agnatic clan to his predecessor and maternal grandfather Malcolm II of Scotland. However, sociohistorically, the reign of Duncan's son Malcolm III of Scotland, which happens to coincide with the start of the centuries-long period of strong influence from the southern neighbour, the Kingdom of England, has been seen as a more important place to start.
Scotland was more influenced by outlanders than it had been earlier, or was to be under the kings of the House of Bruce and House of Stuart. The kingdom was between two established powers: the Kingdom of England and Norway. The common goal uniting the usual policies of kings of this dynasty was to balance between the two neighbours, sometimes allying to have some outside support (France in the Middle Ages). Wars were fought in both fronts, but also alliances and treaties were made with both.
