A mother of two is turning Goodwill into glamour. Jenny Carlson says she was tired of spending hundreds of dollars on her kids’ clothes.“Kids clothing is so expensive,” said Carlson. “They grow out of it so quickly or they stain it in a second, and you’ve spent on a shirt, and now it’s ruined.”Carlson decided to take matters into her own hands. Now, she’s not only saving money, but earning it too. “I sell handmade or repurposed or vintage children’s clothing and accessories,” Carlson said. Carlson makes shopping trips to Goodwill, looking for donated items to reuse as fabric. "There's so much clothing that gets put into the landfill each year," said Carlson. Those unique patterns and colors will get turned into new and unique children's outfits. “I’ve been sewing since I was 8 years old,” said Carlson. “My grandmother sewed, and my mother sewed.”Carlson mix matches fabrics to make items like dresses, vests, bows and bonnets. At first, Carlson made clothes for her children to save money, but over time, her hobby morphed into a real business called Sweet Basil Avenue. She sells on Etsy to customers all over the world. “It's made from used or vintage clothing," said Carlson. “They range from to .” It’s all depending on size and how much fabric she used.Not all of us are crafty like Carlson, but she says it's not about sewing or making money. It's about doing something that makes you happy. “Everybody needs a hobby of some kind that brings them joy,” said Carlson. 1507

A new shareholder complaint against AT&T claims the company encouraged employees to create fake accounts for its DirecTV Now streaming service to juice its subscriber numbers and mislead investors ahead of its acquisition of Time Warner, shareholders allege in an amended complaint filed last week as part of a lawsuit against the company.According to the lawsuit, employees — who faced aggressive sales quotas — were "taught and actively encouraged" to convert activation fees that customers paid to upgrade their phones into the price for multiple DirecTV Now subscriptions. This was allegedly executed by "waiving the fee, but charging the customer anyway, and applying the payment to up to three DirecTV Now accounts using fake email addresses."The complaint claims customers were not told they had been signed up for a subscription, and that the company is said to have fielded regular complaints from customers who said that they were billed for accounts they did not sign up for. The complaint also details other alleged methods for increasing subscriptions without clients' consent.The purpose of these efforts, the lawsuit alleges, was to create the false impression that the service was compensating for declines in the legacy DirecTV satellite business, and to help justify the company's acquisition of Time Warner, now called WarnerMedia. WarnerMedia is CNN's parent company.CNN Business asked AT&T to respond to the merits of the lawsuit as well as for comment on specific allegations within it, such as claims the company pressured employees by setting aggressive sales targets and that employees were encouraged to use unrelated fees to create DirecTV Now accounts."We plan to fight these baseless claims in court," AT&T said in a statement in response.Plaintiffs include Local 449, a union pension fund based in Pittsburgh, and Melvin Gross, an investor who exchanged Time Warner stock for AT&T stock as part of the acquisition.DirecTV Now, which AT&T launched in late 2016, was billed as a key part of the company's pivot to entertainment. The lawsuit alleges that executives, including CEO Randall Stephenson, were deceitful in claiming that DirecTV Now's growth was stable, and that it was driven by "organic" demand and only limited promotions.But beyond the alleged inflation of subscriber numbers at unwitting consumers' expense, the service also suffered from significant turnover as customers jumped from one discounted streaming service to another, according to the complaint.The complaint says the plaintiffs and their attorneys spoke with a number of current or former AT&T employees who gave information about the alleged scheme. It refers to one former employee in Michigan who allegedly estimated that around 40% to 50% of the customers he dealt with starting in early 2017 complained of being billed for DirecTV Now subscriptions that they said they had not signed up for.The allegations come at what is for several reasons a delicate time for the company.Stephenson just 3043

A Missouri man with stage 4 pancreatic cancer says his rights were violated when police searched his hospital room after they suspected he might have marijuana. Last week, officers confronted Nolan Sousley, who was a patient at the Missouri hospital. Police say they received a call from hospital security, stating they smelled marijuana. Sousley said that made no sense, because he doesn't smoke marijuana. However, he admitted he does use CBD oil from marijuana plants, which has been cited to ease pain for patients with certain ailments. Missouri did vote to approve medical marijuana in this past election. However, patients would need medical cards, which won’t be issued until July. Dan Viets, an attorney who worked on the effort to make medical marijuana legal in Missouri, says he doesn’t believe there was legal justification to invade the patient’s room. Viets has consulted with Sousley about the hospital room incident. “There's just no justification for treating patients as if they were serious criminals,” the attorney says. According to reports, police said they received consent to search his bags. Ultimately, cops found nothing, and no citations were issued.In a statement on their 1217

Although Coronavirus has forced fitness studio owners to close their doors temporarily, yoga instructor Laura Leathers has continued to lead her class of yogis through the use of technology. She says yoga at its foundation is a mental practice and can help people to feel more relaxed during this hectic time."A lot of teachers study the yoga sutras, which define yoga and tell us what yoga is," Yoga instructor Laura Leathers said. "It says 'Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah' – which means 'Yoga is stilling the fluctuations of the mind.' Yoga is the calming down of the turnings of the mind."According to licensed professional counselor Calyn Crow, yoga is an excellent practice for mental health. She says the deep breathing alone can offer someone a sense of peace and help them to remain in the present moment."It focuses on your breathing, it helps you get back into your body, it helps you set an intention, and I'm a big believer that what you focus on gets bigger," Counselor Calyn Crow said.That's why Crow says it's essential to focus on the positive instead of the doom and gloom. Nonetheless, it's clear this virus and the disease it causes are at the forefront of everyone's minds."I've been talking about it with just about everybody in every single session," Crow said.Mental health wellness can be challenging when we're stuck at home, potentially without a job, and facing so many unknowns about the future. However, Crow says there are steps we can take to keep our minds at ease. It comes down to our basic needs."Eating foods that are good for your brain and your body, getting enough sleep, getting enough rest is important."Crow says it's also essential to know when you need to take a break and maybe go for a walk. Time outside in the sunshine can make a big difference when you're feeling down. It may also help to know you're not alone in your feelings, and it's ok to be feeling sad or anxious."We all experience these types of thought processes and thinking when we're under stress. It's just natural for our bodies to go into that flight or fight mode," Crow said.Crow says it's a matter of whether you're able to re-calibrate your thoughts and go back to a natural state of mental well-being. For some people, that's not so easy. So now is a critical time to offer friends and family members extra patience, forgiveness, and grace. Even if we feel out of control right now, those are qualities we can control."You are in control of how you respond to the people in your world. You are in control of what you're thinking, the stuff that comes out of your mouth, how you impact other people."In the end, you know your body best and what it needs. For Leathers, yoga is a practice that feeds her mental well-being, and she'll continue offering online classes until we can all meet in person again. "We don't know if this is something that's going to be happening for two weeks, eight weeks or a few months," Leathers said. "So what we have to do is take this long-term view and start implementing tactics that will maintain this strong level of mental health for us right now. The way to accomplish that is through breath, movement, and focus."If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. 3312
