(NewsUSA) - Nurses remain an essential and trusted part of the health care system, and the nation faces an urgent need for nurses due to the COVID-19 outbreak.<br /> <br /> The World Health Organization is also celebrating the value of nursing by designating 2020 as the International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife. In addition, 2020 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale, the 19th- century social reformer known as the founder of modern nursing.<br /> <br /> The demand for nurses, and therefore for nurse educators, is likely to remain high, according to the National League for Nursing (NLN), as nurse educators are on the front lines teaching new nurses who are filling the shortages in hospitals and other health care settings.<br /> <br /> Nurse educators will likely continue to be well paid. Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimate the median salary for nurse educators at $73,490. They may work in academic settings, but some expand their focus to teaching in schools, businesses, hospitals, and community agencies.<br /> <br /> The NLN shares some key advantages to becoming a nurse educator:<br /> <br /> - Intellectual stimulation. Nurse educators know the latest research in the field, and have the ability to share it with others.<br /> <br /> - Flexibility. Nurse education allows for more autonomy and a flexible schedule. Not to mention that technology allows educators to teach from anywhere in the world, at any time, from the beach to the ski slopes.<br /> <br /> - Research. Nurse educators have opportunities for research and publication in scholarly journals to advance the field of nursing and their own careers.<br /> <br /> - Meaning. The desire for a purpose-driven life steers many people to the nurse education field, where they can make a significant difference in a variety of ways.<br /> <br /> - Fulfillment. Nurse educators rejoice in encouraging young students, and take pride in their accomplishments.<br /> <br /> - Impact. Nurse educators, by shaping and developing the next generation of nurses and by working in their communities, will continue to impact the shape of healthcare for future generations.<br /> <br /> - Inspiration. Everyone remembers the teacher or teachers who made a difference for them by giving them that extra encouragement, or helping them explore paths they might not have seen.<br /> <br /> But quite possibly the number- one reason to become a nurse educator, according to the NLN, is the unique chance to "teach what you love."<br /> <br /> Many career tracks exist for potential nurse educators. Teaching requires at least a master's degree in either education or nursing, but these degrees may be earned through a traditional college setting or through the variety of fully accredited programs now available online.<br /> <br /> For more information about careers in nursing education, visit NLN.org.<br /> <br /> Ref: Health - in Blogs

Even as an American, I love Eurovision. I just get so invested in it every year. I've become so interested in so many countries and cultures I wouldn't have really been exposed to otherwise-- all because their representative had a song that had me hooked.<br /> <br /> It's been about two months since the 2025 edition wrapped up, but I'm honestly still kinda feeling the sadness of its finality. So, I figured I'd discuss my top 20 of the year! While everybody was talking about how much they hated this year and the songs, I actually thought it was a very strong year: so much variety, with all kinds of different sounds and genres (which is something that has been hard to come by in previous years.)<br /> <br /> 20. Ireland (Laika Party, Emmy) 💚🤍🧡<br /> Unpopular opinion, but... I like Ireland's song! It's reminiscent of the Europop music that helped define the late 90s/early 2000s. While some may call the song disrespectful or tasteless, I would disagree-- I find it sort of sweet that it gives poor Laika the space dog a happy ending.<br /> <br /> 19. Greece (Asteromata, Klavdia) 💙🤍<br /> I'm not usually a ballad fan, but this song is too good to ignore. Klavdia had some of the best live vocals this year and sounded exactly like the recording. It's a beautiful song with a meaningful message and anyone who thinks it didn't deserve 6th place in the final is simply wrong!<br /> <br /> 18. Spain (Esa diva, Melody) 💛❤️<br /> While most people would disagree, I'd say Spain is probably my favorite Big 5 country from the years I've been watching. Some criticize Esa diva for being dated, stale, and "pandering to middle-aged gay men"... guess I'm a middle-aged gay man then!<br /> <br /> 17. Iceland (Róa, VÆB) 💙🤍❤️<br /> It's pure Eurovision silliness at its finest. The song is upbeat, funny, and catchy, and the VÆB brothers have very unique and charismatic energy (and big iPad kid vibes, honestly.) When Róa comes on, I always just kinda want to... laugh. But in a good way!<br /> <br /> 15. Estonia (Espresso Macchiato, Tommy Cash) 💙🖤🤍<br /> Similarly to Iceland's entry, Estonia has sent the kind of song that makes Eurovision, well, Eurovision. Fun, goofy, and only elevated by the iconic staging. Though, I do feel bad for the hate poor Tommy Cash receives online-- he seems like a sweetheart.<br /> <br /> 15. Cyprus (Shh, Theo Evan) 🧡🤍<br /> I'm usually not a big fan of Cyprus' entries, but this is certainly an exception. I really like the techno/industrial elements used in the song, which sets it apart from other dance entries by giving it a darker sound. The staging was among my favorites of the year. (Also love the way he sings, "Who am I?)<br /> <br /> 14. Germany (Baller, Abor & Tynna) 🖤❤️💛<br /> Despite Abor's... strange political and social stances, Germany really knocked it out of the park with this entry. The song and staging both have immaculate clubbing vibes-- we're having a Baller summer this year! I honestly thought it would've scored higher than 15th.<br /> <br /> 13. Poland (GAJA, Justyna Steczkowska) 🤍❤️<br /> Justyna is a true talent-- in a 3-minute performance, she sings, dances, plays violin, and is hoisted mid-air... all at the age of 52! The song itself is very dark and witchy, which... how could I not love that?! Probably deserved higher than 14th.<br /> <br /> 12. UK (What the **** Just Happened?, Remember Monday) 💙🤍❤️<br /> I think the only reason people hate this song so much is because it's a UK entry. The girls of Remember Monday have a cute vibe, their harmonies were on point, and it's truly chaotic, girly fun. The frequent tempo and style changes fit the crazy theme of the entry!<br /> <br /> 11. Malta (Serving Kant, Miriana Conte) 🤍❤️<br /> I'm obsessed with Miriana's entire image. I see a lot of people criticize this song, but I simply think it's too campy for them (and camp isn't for everyone, I guess...) Even with the censorship of the lyrics, the effect is still there, and Miriana really DID serve kant.<i class="twa twa-xlg twa-wink"></i><br /> <br /> 10. Belgium (Strobe Lights, Red Sebastian) 🖤💛❤️<br /> When I say I want to go dancing, this is the kind of music I want to hear. I can't believe people were saying Red Sebastian's vocals in the semi-final were off, because I thought he was great-- I mean, that iconic high note! Still haven't recovered from its non-qualification...<br /> <br /> 9. Australia (Milkshake Man, Go-Jo) 💙🤍❤️<br /> Now THIS is a robbery if I've ever seen one. I find the claims that the staging was underwhelming rather laughable-- anything that involves a GIANT BLENDER cannot possibly be "underwhelming." The song is upbeat, stuffed with ****** innuendo, Go-Jo is fabulous, and all is right here.<br /> <br /> 8. Finland (Ich Komme, Erika Vikman) 🤍💙<br /> I'm a big fan of whatever Finland is doing-- weird, alternative, and and completely unconventional year after year. I'm kind of shocked the only thing that was censored here was Erika's outfit, considering the song is quite explicit (but that's exactly what makes it so awesome!)<br /> <br /> 7. Albania (Zjerm, Shkodra Elektronike) ❤️🖤<br /> We love a good electro-folk song around here. The lyrics are powerful, and the instrumental is heavy and intense... it's hard to not be affected by Zjerm. I couldn't think of a better closing song for Eurovision 2025, and it was criminally underrated by the juries.<br /> <br /> 6. Switzerland (Voyage, Zoë Më) ❤️🤍<br /> This may just take the cake for my all-time favorite Eurovision ballad. This is yearning at its finest... and French at its finest. I'd have to side with the juries for once on this one, this is an extremely underrated and beautiful song... and it never fails to make me emotional.<br /> <br /> 5. Portugal (Deslocado, NAPA) 💚❤️💛<br /> Everyone jumped on the bandwagon after it blew up on TikTok, but I'd been in love with Deslocado since day one. Everybody called it boring and dull, but I obviously disagree... guess you could chalk it up to my love of rock and indie music. Sickening to think it was last in the betting odds for so long!<br /> <br /> 4. Ukraine (Bird of Pray, Ziferblat) 💙💛<br /> I'm sick of the hate for this song! But to be fair, it's not a particularly accessible genre-- I guess 70s-inspired prog rock is a pretty foreign genre to a lot of people. But to say Bird of Pray would be Ukraine's first NQ is hysterical! The song is too good to have ever been that.<br /> <br /> 3. Latvia (Bur man laimi, Tautumeitas) ❤️🤍<br /> It's witchy, it's enchanting, it's literally a song about manifestation. The harmonies are intoxicating, and I'm addicted to playing it on loop. Anyone who calls this beautiful song boring is not someone I'd want to know-- they just don't get it.<br /> <br /> 2. Italy (Volevo essere un duro, Lucio Corsi) 💚🤍❤️<br /> My love for this song is immeasurable. Lucio is essentially Italian David Bowie-- everything from the song to his outfits. I don't think I could ever tire of this entry! I'm a proud Italian-American whenever this one comes on... and I will ALWAYS defend this song from the 12-year-olds on TikTok.<br /> <br /> 1. Lithuania (Tavo akys, Katarsis) 💛💚❤️<br /> A rock fan's *********. Real, genuine, post-punk/grunge at Eurovision... I foam at the mouth for this song and Katarsis. No notes. Perfection.<br /> <br /> And that's my top 20 of Eurovision 2025! Thinking I'll make lists for past years as well, so stay tuned if you're invested...<br /> <br /> <span style='display:none' class='DO NOT REMOVE - THIS CATEGORY CODE WILL BE HIDDEN - IT IS NEEDED TO BE FOUND BY CATEGORY AND ONE-CLICK SEARCH'>Category: Entertainment - in Blogs</span>

(NewsUSA) - Independent films are the heart and soul of the movie industry. These original works of art have the potential to push the boundaries of film; engage new, underserved audiences and, just maybe, develop into blockbuster hits seen by millions of viewers worldwide.<br /> <br /> This journey of growth, however, is no easy task. For an independent filmmaker, distribution can be the difference between a flop and a million-dollar success.<br /> <br /> How can filmmakers trump this trend? The Movie Studio (TMS) evolved with an answer to this ever-important industry problem.<br /> <br /> The TMS model is two-fold. The company both creates its own movies and simultaneously distributes other independent films. The combination provides TMS with a full library of diverse work that appeals to a broad network of buyers worldwide.<br /> <br /> Currently, TMS is focused on English-speaking films. Plans are in the works, however, to enter the foreign films language market in the near future.<br /> <br /> Gordon Scott Ventures, CEO, stated, "We are very excited to assist many independent producers, with their collective team in their quest for having their efforts rewarded by reaching audiences around the globe."<br /> <br /> TMS' growth comes through enrolling indie producers from the top film schools and film festivals. If recruited, producers have the opportunity to share their work with audiences in more than 60 countries. These moviemakers can also become a member of TMS' growing family of followers, shareholders and supporters, ultimately working together for a mutual profit.<br /> <br /> In addition, TMS continues to prove its value through its finesse and speed, period. The organization prides itself on giving viewers the power to decide for themselves if a film is successful.<br /> <br /> As a pledge to its commitment to the industry, the TMS team has solidified a powerful, well-coordinated media platform through NewsUSA and FilmFestival.com. This platform will boast a strong social media program intended to reach new independent producers and savvy film watchers alike.<br /> <br /> With the indie industry begging for more options to grow, TMS could be in the right position at the right time to swiftly become a leader in the entertainment industry at large.<br /> <br /> To learn more, please visit www.TheMovieStudio.com.<br /> <br /> Ref: Entertainment - in Blogs

(NewsUSA) - Later this month, the nation's largest-ever celebration of educational opportunity will kick off. During National School Choice Week (Jan 26-Feb 1), 50,000 events and activities around the nation will raise awareness about K-12 education choices.<br /> <br /> The real impact of school choice is what gives the Week such energy. A learning environment can change a life, sometimes unexpectedly. Remember the Dr. Seuss story featuring a character who, until he actually tries it, insists a dish of green eggs and ham is not for him? As President of National School Choice Week, I have the joy each month of hearing students, parents, and educators around the country share their own "green eggs and ham" moments.<br /> <br /> A teacher who was ready to leave the education field - until she overcame her skepticism about teaching in a virtual school. A mom who never dreamed she'd homeschool - until her son's medical needs led her to discover its benefits. A student who felt out of place in his previous school, but is now happy and thriving in a different traditional public school.<br /> <br /> That's the power of school choice. All children learn differently and families' needs vary. In the midst of healthy differences and human change, choice empowers families to access the learning environments that work for them now.<br /> <br /> School choice recognizes that parents are best positioned to know their child's passion for botany, reading struggles, or penchant for drawing quirky cartoons. And those same parents are best qualified to choose their children's learning environments.<br /> <br /> National School Choice Week celebrates traditional public, public charter, magnet, private, online, and home education. We celebrate and support families, too, whichever type of school they choose. That's because when families and schools bring their gifts together, students succeed.<br /> <br /> All children deserve to close their school books at the end of each week inspired and equipped to give back. So, if you love your school, celebrate it during School Choice Week! If you're searching for a school, be willing to try something new to find the right fit. You might have a green-eggs- and-ham moment, when your child's frustration with learning turns into an excited "I do love it!"<br /> <br /> For more information, visit schoolchoiceweek.com.<br /> <br /> Ref: Cultures - in Blogs

ODE TO SATURDAY MORNINGS<br /> <br /> Saturday mornings are meant for rest and relaxation….except in an African American household. Saturdays are meant for a deep scrubbing from the inside to the outside, usually to be completed by noon so we could go outside and ride our bikes and play until the streetlights came on, or in my case, piano lessons until early afternoon and THEN ride the day away all over the city of Columbus on my white 10-speed.<br /> <br /> Early mornings, we would wake to my mom’s homemade apple or cherry turnovers or Bob Evan’s recipe biscuits. My younger sister and I woud have the inside of the house and our brothers would have the outside. Once we all came together in the middle, we would eat, get dressed and head to piano lessons on 18th Street with the incomparable Vincent Walters.<br /> <br /> Music comprehension for one hour, hanging with some like-minded creatives (we really weren’t), and then home to Soul Train at noon and friends, kickball, garden hoses and Dixie cups and the creek for the rest of the day and night. Being a kid was so easy in the 80’s. My only stress was if the neighbor boy liked me more than he did Kim Cherry. That was it. That was all. Childhood and Saturdays was a blast! No cell phones, no child predators lurking the streets (we knew everyone who belonged). Just simple childhood fun.<br /> <br /> What is your ode to Saturday?<br /> <br /> <br /> <span style='display:none' class='DO NOT REMOVE - THIS CATEGORY CODE WILL BE HIDDEN - IT IS NEEDED TO BE FOUND BY CATEGORY AND ONE-CLICK SEARCH'>Category: Family - in Blogs</span>

The Importance of Breakfast<br /> <br /> In today's fast-paced world, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can often feel like a daunting task. However, one of the simplest yet most impactful habits you can adopt is starting your day with a nutritious breakfast. This small act not only sets a positive tone for the rest of your day but also provides numerous health benefits that contribute to your overall well-being.<br /> <br /> Why Breakfast Matters<br /> Breakfast is rightly hailed as the most important meal of the day for several reasons. After a night of fasting, your body needs essential nutrients to replenish its energy reserves and kick-start your metabolism. A balanced breakfast fuels your body and mind, improving concentration, mood, and productivity throughout the day. Research consistently shows that people who eat breakfast are more likely to maintain a healthy weight and make better food choices later in the day.<br /> <br /> Components of a Healthy Breakfast<br /> A healthy breakfast should include a variety of nutrients to ensure optimal functioning:<br /> <br /> Complex Carbohydrates: Whole grains like oats, whole wheat bread, or quinoa provide sustained energy and fiber, which aids digestion.<br /> <br /> Protein: Eggs, yogurt, nuts, or lean meats offer essential amino acids that help repair and build tissues, support immune function, and keep you feeling full longer.<br /> <br /> Healthy Fats: Avocado, nuts, seeds, and olive oil provide essential fatty acids that support brain function and heart health.<br /> <br /> Fruits and Vegetables: These are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants crucial for overall health and disease prevention.<br /> <br /> Tips for a Balanced Breakfast<br /> Plan Ahead: Prepare breakfast items the night before to save time in the morning.<br /> <br /> Avoid Sugary Foods: Opt for whole fruits instead of fruit juices or sugary cereals to avoid spikes in blood sugar levels.<br /> <br /> Hydrate: Start your day with a glass of water to hydrate your body after hours of sleep.<br /> <br /> Listen to Your Body: Eat when you feel hungry, and pay attention to portion sizes to avoid overeating.<br /> <br /> Incorporating Breakfast into Your Routine<br /> If you find it challenging to eat breakfast due to time constraints or lack of appetite in the morning, start with small, manageable portions. Smoothies packed with fruits, vegetables, and protein are convenient options for those on the go. Alternatively, try incorporating breakfast foods into your mid-morning snack, such as yogurt with granola or a piece of whole fruit.<br /> <br /> Conclusion<br /> By making breakfast a priority in your daily routine, you not only enhance your physical health but also boost your mental and emotional well-being. Remember, a healthy lifestyle is built on consistent habits, and breakfast is a cornerstone that sets the tone for the rest of your day. Embrace this simple yet powerful practice, and watch as it transforms your energy levels, focus, and overall quality of life. <span style='display:none' class='DO NOT REMOVE - THIS CATEGORY CODE WILL BE HIDDEN - IT IS NEEDED TO BE FOUND BY CATEGORY AND ONE-CLICK SEARCH'>Category: Health - in Blogs</span>
