Want some used breast implants for Christmas? If you do then Mary Carey’s got just the right gift for you! She is auctioning hers off. You remember her? She’s the porn star that ran for governor of California. Yep, whatever you have to do to get publicity. BTW, the implants she’s auctioning are 36-D. She removed them and had 36-DDDs (that’s 3 Ds) put in. Hey, a girls gotta make a living!

The proceeds from her breasts implants will go to breast cancer research. I don’t know if that means she’s going to be researching her own breasts or actually giving the proceeds to a medical institute that researches breasts. That sounds jaded of me, doesn’t it! ha!

It can be nerve raking to go back to school when you’ve been out of school for a while. But learning a new trade can make all the difference in your ability to make a good living, support your family and even in your self-esteem. It just makes you feel good about yourself to be able to do a job and do it well. The National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools (NAHET) knows this and have geared their courses for people who are in that situation. They know that most people who go back to school have not been in school for a while. They also know what training is in demand and help you get certified for those positions. NAHET can help you get the skills now that will get you a job. Graduates of the NAHET are of higher quality and therefore more in demand by employers.

The NAHET has schools throughout the United States and a quick look at their job placement boards makes it obvious that their job placement program has opportunities for just about anyone with their training. They train for all heavy equipment qualifications so that you can be certified at various different levels to run anything from a backhoe, a bulldozer, a crane and more.

Recently, The NAHET was an educational exhibitor at the Native American Education Association Convention in Hawaii. Over 3,400 Indian education advocates attended the convention and participated in over 220 workshops. The workshops were a huge success. You can read the press release below for more information on the convention and the benefits that came out of it. Also, read the NAHET blog for more information on the numerous opportunities available through the NAHET.

Press Release:

When people talk about going to Hawaii it usually is associated with vacations, luaus, snorkeling, sight seeing, surfing, and so on. It is the ultimate tropical paradise. But just like any other state in the U.S., more goes on there than just vacations and having fun. One important event that took place in Honolulu is the annual National Indian Education Association (NIEA) Convention. The NIEA was founded in 1969 to support traditional Native cultures and values, and also to enable Natives to improve their communities through educational opportunities and resources. The NIEA works with Native Americans throughout the United States, including Alaska and Hawaii.

38th Annual NIEA Convention: Return to Cultural Honor and Caring

The National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools (NAHETS) was an educational exhibitor at this year’s convention. Over 3,400 Indian education advocates attended the convention and participated in over 220 workshops. Each advocate expressed concrete, statistical information on Indian education.

Native American Liaison, Sharla Patterson, represented NAHETS and instructed the educators about the educational opportunities available through NAHETS’ heavy equipment operating programs. She showed the attendees that NAHETS education and training curriculum can help the NIEA mission become a reality; i.e., provide Native Americans throughout the U.S. a real and lasting education in construction equipment operating that will improve both the society in which they live and also their own lives.

The National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools is an entity focused solely on heavy equipment operator training and education. There are member schools and colleges across the United States.
