Spas prepare for Black Friday and Cyber Monday
Modern Salon
Black Friday and Cyber Monday can be stressful — the race from store to store, the fights between consumers and the absence of a desired gift. But now, the spa industry is adding its own, relaxing touch to the occasion, with many spas and salons offering Black Friday and Cyber Monday specials and discounts in honor of the annual savings — and to provide a break from the hustle. According to the ISPA 2013 U.S. Spa Industry Study, 51 percent of spas provide a discount or promotion to their social media audience, giving consumers a perk to liking their favorite spa's page.
Doctors warn of medical spa laser treatments
WLS-TV
Cosmetic laser treatments now are being performed at med spas and some physicians say this can be dangerous to a patient's health.
Med spas offer cosmetic laser procedures, which may be performed by someone who is not a doctor.
More than three-quarters of current lawsuits involving laser procedures are against nondoctors.
Physicians say while it is legal in most states to perform laser procedures without a medical degree at med spas, it's not always safe.
As a cosmetologist and instructor, I am honored to be with the NCEA. As a professional, I recommend becoming certified. After 30 years in the industry, I can still get excited about continuing education, my job and helping others.

A guide to LinkedIn company pages
By Mayur Kisani
 LinkedIn now has a user base of more than 200 million members, making it the world's largest professional network.

8 strategies to make lasting change in the way you teach
TeachThought
You've likely read about something recently that caught your eye.
Game-Based Learning. A new app. A comprehensive literacy strategy.
And that recognition was probably followed up by something else — a tweet with a link to a YouTube channel that blew you away. Or a quote about learning that's causing you to rethink what you thought you knew about education. While there are many new ways to learn in our digital age, encountering new ideas is different than internalizing that thinking and working to integrate it meaningfully.
What can we learn from the global effort around mobile learning?
MindShift
Closing the achievement gap and giving all students access to a world of learning online remains one of the strongest allures of education technology. In the U.S., that conversation is often centered on the newest shiny device, slickest software or free app, but internationally mobile technology is revolutionizing learning, too, often without fancy gadgets. Recognizing the creative learning strategies being implemented in developing countries could help expand thinking in the U.S and inform the ongoing discussion about how to use technology to deepen learning.
