Do any of you own and use your Mac laptop or desktop a lot? If so, something to consider downloading (for free!) is the smcFanControl software.

This handy dandy tool allows you to control the fan speed of your computer. It has nice features which allow you to modify your specific preferences. For example, whenever I plug my charger into my laptop, the fan speed goes on high (6,000rpm). And when the charger is not plugged in, I have the fan run on low speed (2,000rpm) just to preserve battery life.

WOW! It has been MONTHS since my last blog post on here. But that's it, no more hesitation. I am going to follow through on my word and continuously update this thing.

So without further adue, I give you Miss Brasil this year: Jana Dias of Sao Paulo, Brazil (seen below in the red dress, 'Lady In Red'). She's a 27 year old professional nanny in the DC area and was a real treat to speak with. Who wouldn't love a woman that's great with kids, is religious and wants peace on earth?! She had those sharp piercing eyes and calm demeanor that was effective in gathering my vote for the competition plus the long legs helped.

Yesterday, MNP participated as a panelist at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Generation Y was among the topics discussed and one that we are very familiar with - being twenty somethings, hard at work and doing what we love - so needless to say, we were proud to represent the "Echo Boomers". 

The summary video of the event is coming soon. In the meantime you can view our intro video and pictures below. 

The most recent annual waterskiing clinic event by Dreams For Kids was a huge success. The team made drastic improvements compared to the last two years.
