How do you feel when it feels like God says "no"? Do you see it is a rejection or something else?
What is an effective way you've found in your life to help you hear the voice and direction of God?
APRIL 21--The Bible is full of encouragement that as believers, we should be bold in asking God to move in our lives and in our cities. Jesus makes it clear that God wants us to ask Him and that we should expect Him to answer us! But so many times, we feel burned or let down by times where we haven't seen this "work". So how is it then that we can continue to approach God boldly and ask Him for big things?
Can you think of a time where God answered a prayer in seemingly dramatic fashion? What was that like for you?
Think about a time where you prayed for something that didn't happen? How have you tried to explain this to yourself or others?
How often do you ask questions of God? Have you ever felt like you got answers?
What's been your experience with the "Lord's Prayer" as a part of your faith tradition?
How do you think your view/beliefs about God affect how you ask in prayer?
APRIL 14--Our lives are literally filled with opportunities to be drawn away from God. When we bite on those temptations, we start walking out a journey that moves us where we never wanted to be. God has given us a way to respond to those moments that brings life!
What are some things capturing your interest that might have a hook in them?
What keeps you from wanting to turn and run to Jesus?
What is your process for assuring a successful change of direction?
Who is joining you through the life of repentance?
APRIL 7--Few things give us a better picture of the condition of our hearts than our ability (or inability) to praise God. In praise we see into our hearts and have our eyes lifted off ourselves and onto God. It is from that place that the power of God shows up and opens the door for transformation all around us!
What does the mirror of praise reveal in your heart?
Can you identify any areas where God wants you to focus on praising Him?
Where is the power of God showing up around you?
What pathways is God opening up for you to cross bridges to others or to bring people back to Him?
Back in November I ran a contest on my Facebook page for a free family session. The only rules were your kitchen had to be white/grey and you couldn’t be afraid of a little mess in the kitchen! They didnt even know what I was going to make them do! We had a lot of entries and in the end the Harris Family were the winners! When I messaged Kristin with the idea she was all for it! This was one of my first “real” lifestyle family sessions and you guys, I am SO IN LOVE!! I love everything about this session!! Its fun, unposed and natural and I love it!! It always makes me really wish I had photos like this with my Momma! I had so many favorites it was hard to narrow it down, but I hope you all enjoy this super fun family session!
Before the turkey has been in the fridge long enough to be called a leftover, many families will hit their favorite retailer ready to strike a deal on Black Friday.
For the experienced Black Friday shopper, this official start to the holiday shopping season is a welcome challenge full of its own tradition. In fact, the National Retail Federation reported in its 2015 Thanksgiving weekend survey that tradition was the second-most-popular reason consumers braved the Black Friday crowds to shop in a brick-and-mortar store.
But there is one motivator that surpassed tradition to bring out shoppers on the day after Thanksgiving: The deals were too good to pass up.
About half of Black Friday shoppers showed up for the deals, and April Gilman — a Philadelphia, Pa. resident with a penchant for deals — has been one of them for the last 15 to 20 years.
The fact that there are shoppers looking for deals on Black Friday is hardly a surprise; however, the survey showed that the way they are finding these deals is changing. Whether consumers are shopping in-store or online, technology is influencing the process. If you’re looking for tips to master Black Friday Shopping, you can learn from the tech-savvy habits of these experienced deal-finders.
Based on the habits of those surveyed, here are some suggestions for using your smartphone or tablet to improve your in-person shopping experience.
While sale circulars were the most popular research tool, almost a third of those surveyed last year planned their trip by doing an online search. Retailers keep a close eye on their competition during Thanksgiving weekend, so you never know when a last-minute deal will be introduced.
The highest level of smartphone activity on Black Friday — even higher than online purchasing — was researching products and comparing prices. When you’re in a crowd of competitive shoppers, it’s not very convenient to stop and read every detail on the box. But it might be worth an extra minute to do a quick search from the store to make sure you’re truly getting the lowest price.
Coupon redemption was also a common use of smartphones in 2015. Several digital coupon apps with built-in GPS technology are available for iPhones and Android devices. If you’re near a store with a coupon or special sale, most of these apps will send you a push notification. Some even let you set the app to check your favorite stores.
Sometimes retailers limit their inventory of deeply discounted products and a great deal will go fast. Many store websites allow you to enter your zip code to check in-store availability of an item before you go. This way, you don’t waste time looking for a product that was advertised nationally but wasn’t stocked at your local store.
These practical tips, combined with the advantages of technology, can help you master Black Friday shopping like a pro.

JSHQ Volume 13 No.4 - Summer 2002 - What's Happening?
OSHA Administrator John L. Henshaw recently began a new policy of contacting families of workers killed on the job to express the agency's sorrow over their loss. Henshaw announced the new initiative in commemoration of Worker Memorial Day in late May.
"In expressing my deepest sympathies to the families of workers killed on the job, I want to assure them-and the nation-that we are working closely with employers throughout the country to do everything possible to prevent any more workers from dying on the job," Henshaw said.
Ron Hayes, Director of Families in Grief Hold Together and a member of OSHA's National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health, says, "Elevating the fatality investigation and notification process to the highest office in OSHA ensures that these tragedies will receive the level of attention they deserve. I praise the Administration and the head of OSHA for taking this most courageous and compassionate stand for the American worker. However, we must continue to reduce the accident and injury rate to the point where this type of initiative is not needed at all."
OSHA recently began collecting data on country of origin and primary language capability for all workers involved in fatalities and other serious accidents. The agency also is for the first time collecting site-specific information on construction projects where many immigrants and other workers die every year.
The new data collection will enable OSHA to determine what role language barriers and other risk factors play in fatalities and other workplace accidents. The agency will use the information to determine how to improve safety for these workers.
Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao announced in May that the Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy will combine efforts with OSHA to promote worker safety and health, with a particular emphasis on ergonomics. Chao made the announcement during her keynote address to about 70 small business owners from across the nation participating in National Small Business Week activities in Washington, DC.
A new OSHA hazard information bulletin alerts workers in dental laboratories on how to prevent exposure to beryllium, which can cause chronic beryllium disease (CBD), a debilitating and often fatal lung disease, or cancer.
The bulletin presents a case of CBD recently diagnosed in a dental lab technician and recommends the types of engineering controls, work practices, training, personal protective equipment, and housekeeping procedures that can be used to reduce exposure and the risk of CBD.
Dental laboratory technicians can develop CBD if they inhale dust containing beryllium when working on items such as dental crowns, bridges, and partial denture frameworks made from dental alloys containing beryllium.
For more information, see the hazard information bulletin on the OSHA website at www.osha.gov.
OSHA recently clarified its policy against removing contaminated needles from blood tube holders to reduce the dangers of needlesticks for health-care workers and others who handle medical sharps.
"Removing contaminated needles and reusing blood tube holders can expose workers to multiple hazards," says OSHA Administrator John L. Henshaw. "We want to make it very clear that this practice is prohibited in order to protect workers from being exposed to contaminated needles."
OSHA explained in a letter of interpretation that the bloodborne pathogens standard requires blood tube holders with needles attached to be discarded into a sharps container immediately after the device's safety feature is activated. The letter of interpretation is available on OSHA's website at www.osha.gov.
OSHA's Mobile, AL, Area Office recently took on an expanded role in carrying out a special southeastern regional emphasis program on fall hazards. Across the region, OSHA compliance officers are now authorized to stop at any site where fall hazards might be present. Mobile area compliance officers will take the effort a step further, targeting scaffolding and roofing activities to ensure that a competent person is onsite and has taken the necessary training courses to qualify. Areas targeted for inspections include Mobile, Montgomery, Dothan, and Gulf Shores in Alabama. For more information about the program, contact the Mobile Area Office at (251) 441-6131.
OSHA statistics show that falls caused 33 percent of all fatal workplace accidents in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi last year, and 70 percent of these fatalities occurred at construction sites. During this period, OSHA's southeastern area offices investigated 83 fatalities involving falls, 58 of which were in the construction industry.
OSHA recently introduced technical links pages on worker hazards in dentistry and recycled industrial property, also known as brownfields, on its website at www.osha.gov under Safety/Health Topics . The pages address worker safety and health issues and provide a wide range of reference material on hazards at both types of worksites. The dentistry page includes sections on bloodborne pathogens, health-care facilities, and exposure to nitrous oxide and waste anesthetic gases. The brownfields page provides compliance information and links to tools for identifying, evaluating, and controlling employee exposures to hazardous substances at these sites.
A new Department of Labor website covers a wide range of youth employment issues, including information about workplace safety. The site, Youth Rules!, is part of an ongoing initiative to educate young people, their parents, employers, and teachers about unsafe jobs and appropriate work hours for teenagers. It is available at www.youthrules.dol.gov. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, some 200,000 teens get injured at work every year.
A new technical information bulletin on the OSHA website at www.osha.gov offers advice for international business travelers. The bulletin, Safety and Health During International Travel, suggests that international business travelers follow recommendations for immunizations published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that are available at www.cdc.gov/travel. In addition, the bulletin urges business travelers to consult the U.S. Department of State consular information sheet for individual countries they plan to visit. These country guides are posted at www.travel.state.gov.
"Many employees now travel to countries where they risk contracting infectious diseases that could be prevented through vaccinations and simple precautions while traveling," OSHA Administrator John L. Henshaw said. "Our new technical information bulletin will help international travelers take care of their health while they take care of business."
OSHA has released two newly revised publications to protect workers from on-the-job hazards and inform employers about how to comply with OSHA standards.
Controlling Electrical Hazards, OSHA 3075, provides an up-to-date overview of basic electrical safety, OSHA electrical safety standards, and information employers need to comply with those standards. The booklet addresses employees who work with electricity directly, such as engineers, electricians, electronic technicians, and power-line workers, as well as the millions of people who deal with electricity indirectly in the course of their everyday work.
Hand and Power Tools, OSHA 3080, provides a summary of the basic safety procedures and safeguards associated with hand and portable power tools. It offers practical information for employers and employees in general industry as well as construction by identifying various types of tools and their potential hazards and ways to prevent workplace injuries. Both publications are available electronically on OSHA's website at www.osha.gov and through the OSHA Publications Office at (800) 321-OSHA.
A new Spanish-language publication, Todo Sobre la OSHA, will help Spanish-speaking employers and their employees understand more about safety and health in the workplace. The publication is a translation of All About OSHA, a 61-page booklet that covers job safety, employers' duties, and workers' rights and offers extensive information on how to make workplaces safer.
The manual is part of OSHA's growing outreach to Spanish-speaking constituents. It includes a Spanishlanguage website, new data collection efforts for non-English-speaking employees and employers, and Spanish-language options for OSHA's toll-free number, (800) 321-OSHA.

The "Partnering for Shipbuilding Safety" article in the Spring issue did not clarify that shipyard injuries have dropped significantly during the past 3 years only for Shipbuilders Council of America member facilities. The average Total Recordable Incident Rates (TRIRs) for the industry as a whole (Standard Industrial Classification 3731), as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, remained relatively stable between 1998, when the rate was 22.4, and 2000, when the rate was 22. TRIRs for Shipbuilders Council of America member facilities showed a drop from 12.94 in 1998 to 11.76 in 2001.

A near capacity crowd of motorcycle speedway fans filled the McCann Stadium at the Gold Country Fairgrounds Friday night in Auburn for the opening night of the 2018 Fast Friday’s Motorcycle Speedway season. The long off season drought is over and fans were treated to a night of fantastic racing action. Many riders were back moving up to different divisions and some riders aging out of the youth divisions and now tearing it up in the adult divisions.
Eight time AMA US Speedway National Champion Billy Janniro was back and wasted little time climbing to the top with a convincing win in the scratch main event. Janniro is beginning a special possibility historic season this year as he works toward being the first speedway rider in America to win nine national championships. He currently is tied with Greg Hancock each possessing eight national championship titles. “It’s just another year racing for me, it would be nice to make that the point of my year but it’s not,” Janniro said in regarding his winning a ninth national title this season. “I’m here to win every race I’m in if I get something else on top of it that would be a bonus,” he said.
Janniro faced Charlie Venegas, Tommy Hedden and Ryan Bast in the scratch main event. He got a good gate and it was really a two man race with Venegas presenting a challenge for Janniro for the first two laps. Janniro slowly widened the gap in lap three and four and cruised to his first main event Fast Friday’s victory of the year. Venegas followed in second, Bast was third and Hedden fourth.
A big surprise in the Handicap main event was Auburn’s Tyler Warren who was on fire all evening holding off Janniro and Bart Bast get his first win of the season. Warren who was off all of last season had a great night, turning in some of the best riding of his career. Warren took ten yards off his 20 yard starting position with the win and will be a rider to keep an eye on this season. “I’m riding a bike I never have rode before, a GM motor, it’s small and fits me well and I feel comfortable on it,” Warren said. “I’m really excited about it (the win) I just came out and am having fun, life’s good and everything else is coming around.” Bast was second and Janniro third. Bast starts on the 50 yard line and Janniro starts the handicap program on the 60 yard line.
In another race Warren and Russell Green turned in one of the best rides of the night in their scratch heat race with a photo finish for second and third place that had fans on their feet cheering both riders on.
Back this year in Division II and turning in a solid first night was Auburn’s Will McCloskey. McCloskey was undefeated Friday night winning his heat race and then taking the main event. Rick Shafer also had a great night finishing second and Aaron Sorani was third.
Moving up from the youth division and a 250cc bike Sammy Tetrault made himself right at home on a 500cc bike winning the Division III main event. Part of the growing TeamSOS, Tetrault was second in his heat race and took the main off the 20 yard line ahead of Dakota VanderBroeder who won her heat race to advance to the main event. Steven Sagen was third.
Anthony Dion topped the Youth 250cc division with a perfect night winning both his heat races and the main event. Cameron Krezman was second and Dylan Wagner was third. Charlie Trana won the Youth 150cc main event, also turning in a perfect night winning his heat races and the main event. Colton Nelson was second, Mason Zebroff was third followed by Nick Hohlbein who finished fourth.
