Over the time of living in my new world as a widower there have been many questions that I needed to find answers too. Most of the questions I had are very common for people in my position so I plan to try and cover off some of these questions in this and future blog posts with the hope that they help others find their own answers.
The first one is about the Wedding Ring and what on earth you do with it.
It's these types of things that people think about when they have lost their husband/wife. Probably not something you would expect to think about until you are actually in this position though.
Should I keep it on my wedding finger?
Should I take it off completely?
Should I move it to another finger?
Should I melt it down to something else?
From my experience with my time on the WAY Foundation Facebook Page this question came up a lot and the answers were very varied. Some people not wanting to remove it at all. Some removing it straight away. Others leaving it on until they found someone else. This is certainly a personal decision for anyone and there is no right or wrong.
For me though there were some clear facts that helped me make my decision…
I was no longer a married man. This in itself is a massive realisation to deal with but it was fact. The vows I took on my wedding day included. 'in sickness and in health until death do us part'
So as I am the kind of person who thinks black is black and white is white; If it's grey then its' grey and so on. In my brain you should only have a wedding ring on if you are married. After all that's is what it means isn't it. A ring on your wedding finger means you are married.. No ring means you are not. Now I know it's not that simple but to me it is.
The other deciding factor was that my marriage and my wedding ring means everything to me. I meant all of my vows, I loved Helen and will continue to love her forever.
So personally I had to remove the ring from my wedding finger. It just didn't feel right being there but at the same time I wanted to keep it on to remind me of my wife and the love we shared.
It now resides on the third finger of my right hand which is where I want it to stay forever.
As I said before this is a very personal yet important decision for any widow and there is no right or wrong answer. This is just my thought process and my decision.

Back in Time
Notwithstanding the fact that the photo gives away the answer... Do you know who was the first actor to play Robin Hood on television?
You probably didn't, but Patrick Troughton was the man in question... a hugely versatile actor who is undoubtedly best remembered for his portrayal of the second incarnation of Doctor Who, Troughton passed away on this day in 1987.
Born in 1920 and a Naval lieutenant during the Second World War, Troughton made his first television appearance in 1947 and big screen debut the following year. He had a string of acting credits to his name including Father Brennan whose memorable demise was very much a case of wrong place, wrong time as he was impaled during the 1976 film The Omen. But to a generation of 1960s youngsters, Troughton will always be "the Doctor"... and forty ahem plus years later, his interpretation of the renegade Time Lord remains (as far as I'm concerned) the standard against which other characterisations are judged.
The biggest disappointment is that the majority of his early Doctor Who stories were "junked" back in the 1970s and video records range from limited to nothing... Some of the later adventures still exist, but it's Sod's law that the quality of these stories is much weaker than some that remain missing... either that or the glasses have a slight tint of rose...
Troughton's tenure includes my favourite all-time Doctor Who tale... the 1967 six-parter The Faceless Ones, which was set in GatwickAirport... and in outer space. Here again, most of the episodes no longer exist (just two or the six remain), but the soundtrack is available and if I had one wish...
It would be to win the lottery, but if I had several, maybe finding the four missing episodes might be one of them.
At the foot of the page is a still from the story, signed by Wanda Ventham, who played the part of Jean Rock, the airport commandant's secretary. Trivia teaser no.2... who is her famous son?
No pictorial clues this time... the answer is Sherlock actor Benedict Cumberbatch...
Anyway, back to Patrick Troughton... He suffered heart attacks in 1978 and 1984, but on both occasions, after recovering, he simply returned to the same hectic schedule of film and television work. I guess a third attack was always likely to be fatal... and so it proved, but his legacy remains and I would go as far as to suggest that some of Doctor Who's current and enduring popularity can be attributed to the performances and personality of Patrick Troughton...
I might just have to watch a DVD in his memory tonight...
Patrick George Troughton (25th March 1920-28th March 1987)

It was a beautiful autumnal day yesterday for Dawn and Stevie's wedding at the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh. When I arrived at Dawn's parents house to photograph the bridal preparations there was definitely a feeling of excitement in the air, not just from Dawn, but also Stevie's daughter Hayley who was looking forward to being a bridesmaid. It always amazes me how quickly time flies on a wedding day and that certainly was the case on Saturday, it felt like no time at all before the cars arrived to take the bridal party to the wedding! Once at the Corn Exchange Dawn and Stevie had a beautiful humanist ceremony. Following the nuptials, I managed to sneak the couple away to nearby Saughton Rose Gardens for a few photographs (thanks to Hannah the wedding coordinator at the Corn Exchange for telling us about this hidden gem and also Eccose Cars for driving us there!). A truly wonderful day, thank you Mr and Mrs Robertson for allowing me to be part of it.
Below is a "sneak peek" of some images from the day.

Happy birthday Thomas Eakins
Thomas Eakins (July 25, 1844 — June 25, 1916) was an American realist painter and photographer. He is most known for his depiction of the human form, which, during his lifetime, caused much unrest in the art world. The son of a calligrapher, Eakins' work was meticulously planned and deeply realistic. He achieved his realism through the aid of a camera later in his career. Some of his works include Max Schmitt in a Single Scull (1871), The Chess Players (1876), and Thomas Eakins Carrying a Woman (1885).
Eakins was born in Philadelphia to Caroline Cowperthwait and Benjamin Eakins. His father was a writing master and calligraphy teacher. Watching his father lay lines out so precisely influenced his work later. He excelled in mechanical drawing at Central High School and by 1861, began attending the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He studied anatomy and became specifically interested in the human body.
Portrait of Dr. Samuel D. Gross (The Gross Clinic)
In 1866, Eakins took a trip to Europe to study art. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris with the likes of Jean-Léon Gérôme. Later, he traveled to Spain, where he became enchanted with the realism in the works by Diego Velásquez and Jusepe de Ribera. There, he attempted his first oil painting, A Street Scene in Seville. By this point, Eakins had also already developed the belief that the human nude was one of the closest things to truth.
When he returned from Europe, the first set of works he completed were a series of rowing scenes. The most famous of these is Max Schmitt in a Single Scull (1871).
During the same period, he also completed a series of indoor scenes, mostly depicting his family members and friends. Some of these include Home Scene (1871),
Elizabeth at the Piano (1875),
and The Chess Players (1876).
Another of these was his first portrait, Kathrin (1872), who went on to become his fiancée until she died in 1879.
In 1876, Eakins returned to the Pennsylvania Academy to teach. By 1882, he had risen to director. DUring this time he explored his interest in how the human and animal figures intersect with surgical dissection. He had students with aspirations of all kinds—to become painters, cartoonists, lithographers, and illustrators. The program became one of the most modern and liberal in the world.
Eakins became one of the first to introduce photography to the world of American art. He had been exposed to the method of using photography as an aid by the French realists, but the process was looked down upon by traditionalist artists. He began to use photography to capture motion. In 1880, he obtained a camera, and used it at least partially to create the works Mending the Net (1881), Arcadia (1883), and A May Morning in the Park (1880).
He became more invested in photography when he created The Naked Series in 1883, a series of photographs of nude models (some of whom were his students) used to show the human form to his students. He took hundreds of photos, mostly in traditional poses, but the sheer number was a point of concern to many of his peers at the time.
After receiving complaints about questionable conduct with his students in teaching how to capture aspects of the human form, he resigned from his post. Despite this blow to his career, a number of loyal students formed the Art Students' League of Philadelphia where Eakins instructed. One of his students, Samuel Murray, went on to become his protégé and life-long friend.
Taking the Count, (1898)
His effective dismissal from the Pennsylvania Academy left him hurt. His moved to a ranch in what is now North Dakota in hopes that the outdoors would cure him of the depression that had overtaken him. His work during his later years mostly focused on portraiture. Deeply affected by the scandals surrounding his work, many of his portraits are marked by a deep psychological presence in their subjects.
A year after his death, he was honored with a memorial retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In the modern art world, Eakins has emerged as a major figure in sexuality studies.

text: Yo. Being with the DS Scene from the beginning, i dropped out around the time the slot 1 cards started emerging, to focus my time on the PSP and my other consoles. Just recently i gotten around to using my DS again, and bought a R4DS, as being a OSX user and using the Supercard Lite software to convert is a tad bit cumbersome. The card worked perfectly fine for some time, but some times the card wouldn´t get recognized in the DS. It didn´t bother that much, as i rarley used it. However with the release of Phaton Hourglass and other AAA titles, i started updating the card, applying themes etc. Around this time the card would make random freezes when using it. It finally fried my Memorycard after one freeze and while the R4 still works sometimes when using another memorycard, it still freezes. The question is, what´s causing this? Obviously is a bad connection somewhere, but where? The cardslot or is it the connectors on the R4? Can it be fixed by removing the springs on the R4? Oh, and other DS games works perfectly fine, no mather how hard i shake the DS, it´s just the R4.


text: My Wii has been softmodded. After installing the homebrew and backup channels the original Mario Kart disc worked fine. I went ahead and downgraded my Wii to 3.2u a few days ago and now when I insert the Mario Kart disc I get the message "Wii System Update Required" Is this OK to do it will it render my softmods useless?

Alessi Sapper 9090 Espresso Maker
Alessi 9090 Coffee Maker was their first ever kitchen product, and the first Alessi product to enter the Permanent Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMa) New York. It's been long acclaimed as the world's most beautiful coffee maker. It's unique because it doesn't screw together – it snaps together via a disguised lever closure where the handle plays a key role.
The late German Richard Sapper (1932-2015) designed the 9090 for the Alessi company in 1979. Sapper began with ambition - he wanted it to look like a steam train. Sapper once said "An espresso maker is really a little steam engine. It has a tank, where the water is transformed into steam and then rises and extracts the aroma from the coffee. I wanted to show the character of the steam engine in this design."
And it gets other basics right too. It has a non-drip spout, a non-slip handle, and three interior filters to ensure you drink coffee not eat it. This Alessi 9090 6Cup also has a converter to allow either three or six cup brews. The body is made in Italy from mirror polished 18/10 stainless steel which allows it to be used on all heat sources including induction.
Herr Sapper had coffee credentials : his grandfather was a coffee planter in the town of Coban in Guatemala, and his father was born there.

Hello friends,
Welcome to Yellow Queen.
I am a beekeeper who is allergic to honey bees. I was unaware of the allergy to bees when I started beekeeping a few years ago. I soon found out when I had received a sting to my head and it proceeded to grow to E.T. proportions. (See artist rendering) It turned out that although bee venom allergies are quite rare, I tested at a high level allergen to honey bees. I'm not even allergic to any other type of bee, wasp or insect, only to honey bees! I could not give up my new found passion in life even if it could kill me. (Being a little dramatic here) So I started allergy shots for bee venom. A lot of shots- starting at twice a week. I continue to receive allergy shots, now monthly and thankfully they are working. When I get stung now, I have little to no reaction. When my allergens were tested again last March, honey bees came in at a low level! Hooray! I am OK. Even though I don't need it, I always carry my EPI Pen so my mom is happy. And I always suit up and take extra precautions because of my allergy.
Every time I am stung, it is my fault for going into the bees hive, which is their home. I don't blame them for wanting to defend it. Honey bees are not aggressive they are defensive and they will not bother people unless you bother them first.
Honey bees are fascinating insects. I love beekeeping, it is such a humbling experience. I learn more each season.
I hope you enjoy the honey!

Kansas City, Kan., police are seeking suspects in the theft of $18,000 in snow plowing equipment.
Police said a man had the equipment installed on two pickup trucks in late December, but the trucks were taken from the shop that installed the equipment without anyone paying for it.
The trucks were described as a white 2003 Ford F-250 and a red 2001 Ford F-250. New "Boss" snow plow blades and "Salt Dogg" tailgate salt spreaders were installed on the pickup trucks.
Anyone with information about the thefts is asked to call Kansas City, Kan., police at 913-573-6020 or the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477.

iOS 11 has been released, and if you have an iPhone or iPad, you should really update right now. It's a big release, and especially iPad users will get to enjoy an overhauled user experience on their tablets. If you're not convinced, be sure to read the only two reviews you need: the one by fervent and enthusiastic (his enthusiasm for the iPad is infectious, in a good way) iPad user Federico Viticci, and the Ars Technica review written by Andrew Cunningham.
I've been using the betas on my 2017 iPad Pro 12.9", and it truly transforms how you use the iPad, to the point where I can use mine comfortably for work (translating, posting OSNews stories - like this one - and so on). No macOS or Windows laptop is as responsive and fluid as this iPad Pro, and the battery life of this machine is so good, it's probably illegal in 12 US states. Unlike macOS or Windows, I don't have to spend time fighting with iOS 11 to get it to do what I want, like fidgeting with windows, or anxiously managing battery life because otherwise I won't get through a day, or manage applications. And trust me, there's no PC - not even my own €4000 monster PC - that is as fluid and responsive as this iPad Pro.
The iPad Pro with iOS 11 is the truest realisation yet of it just works.
I'm not going to claim this is for everyone, or that you should ritually sacrifice your ThinkPad and run to the Apple Store and get the iPad Pro. However, after a few months of use, there's no way I'm ever going back to a traditional laptop. That being said - my only complaint about the 2017 iPad Pro 12.9" is an odd one: it's not a mobile device.
I am a sit down behind my desk kind of person. I work and compute behind a desk, with a large display at eye height and a comfortable chair. The iPad Pro isn't suited for this kind of work, as it forces you to look down, which due to back problems I cannot do for longer periods of time. What I really want is a small iOS box I can hook up a display, keyboard, and mouse to. Apple already makes such a box - the Apple TV - so I know they can do it. Mouse and keyboard support is probably coming to iOS over the coming years, and with the Mac Mini languishing, it feels like they might be working on just such a box.
I'd easily pay €500-700 for such a machine.
I know stating iOS is a great general purpose computing platform tends to be controversial - I myself have been skeptical about this very thing for years - but iOS 11 and the iPad Pro have utterly convinced me. This is the platform I want for laptop and desktop computer use. Windows and macOS feel like the past now.

I'm stunned by that. What sort of response is that? Me lazy because I have expertise and knowledge on a platform. Are you really arguing that? That was merely an insult. As I said you are losing it, not me.
I don't have to be defensive about the general purpose computing environment it speaks for itself. I don't think the desktop environment is even vaguely threatened by IOS and I wouldn't even care if it was. I have no personal allegiance to anything but the facts. That comment wasn't relevant and I am clever enough to recognise when you are making a personal dig at me - that is inappropriate and not worthy of you.
Aggressive? I am just countering your sweeping statements with facts that are so self-evident that it shocks me that a man who runs a site called OS news has the gall to even try to refute some of the things I have said when they ought to be utterly self-evident.
This stuff is basic. You know it I am sure, you have just convinced yourself you are right. Why would you bother to even argue? The whole premise of your article is misleading.
I think you need to take stock and rethink that's all.
Your article would have been better off if it had focussed upon the increased usability of IOS as desktop replacement for the less technically minded users. As a cooking-computer for the kitchen, as a competent mobile platform that can do the stuff that a desktop can at a pinch, perhaps with not the best and most applicable applications but ones that will able to do the job, just. Stating that IOS is getting there but with all the limitations that a closed-source, closed environment that few real organisations use for general purpose computing due to its relative immaturity.
No need to be aggressive, facts speak for themselves. If I was aggressive then it would be clear. You are mistaking valid and forcefully-made responses for aggression. You read in the aggression yourself as you are on the defensive and you feel exposed.
Your answers are exactly the same so I'll point the finger straight back at you.
PS. Written on an old core2duo, 10 years old with a proper screen, proper keyboard, whilst editing javascript code, photoshop, skype, email and browsing here. We've been doing this stuff on the desktop using a mature general purpose computing environment for years and years.
Edited: Oh yes and it cost £50.

Modpodge... LOL! This is such a popular product today. I really chuckle each time I see it. When I was in junior high and high school, ModPodge was all the rage. It was sold everywhere. We made all kinds of goofy items, usually collage based (covering glasses or pieces of wood with magazine cut-outs) and preserving them with ModPodge. Then the product basically went out of sight. The only place you could purchase it was in a craft store and some of them didn't carry it. nearly 40 years later it's back. Goes to prove-- What goes around, comes around! I just repinned an item on Pinterest for making your own ModPodge. LOL again!
Prayers and best wishes for the move!!!!!

The recent released IDC industry report stated the latest statistic on worldwide mobile phone and mobile OS market share. According to the report, 2013 will be another strong year forecasting 9.7% year over year growth compared the poor growth of 1.2% from last year. Smartphone shipments are predicted to have a great impress run and are forecast to grow 40% year to year than 1 billions units in 2013. This shows that there are still huge demand for smartphones across all over the world, especially in the emerging markets.
The analysts also have some thoughts and forecast the upcoming smartphone market battle for the top OS in the report which is quite interesting and worth looking at. Android is still predicted to be the dominant player for the coming 4 years but slightly losing 7% to 68% market share. iPhone will still be the 2nd guy in the game holding almost one fifth of the market share. Interestingly, Windows Phone is expected to solidify its position as the number three mobile operating system. With the acquisition of Nokia Corporation's (ADR) devices and services unit, Microsoft Corporation will need to push its share gains by itself as OEM support is expected to shrink now that the company is set to become a full-fledged hardware maker.

8 Great Jobs That Don't Require a College Degree
With today's rising tuition costs and the slowing economy, going to college is a hard financial decision to make. According to CNN Money, around 40 million Americans have student loan debt. There are numerous articles out there that argue that the return on investment of a college education is extremely low, and not quite worth it. While I personally think a college education can be valuable (if done correctly), I certainly understand the financial hardships that come alongside the decision to pursue a 4-year degree. For many who find themselves supporting or caring for a family, or are already buried in debt, getting a college education is simply not an option. Thankfully, there are a variety of careers out there that don't necessarily require a college degree, but still pay adequately. Here's a list of 8 of them:
1. Chef
Median Pay: $39,307
If you have a creative mind and a passion for the culinary arts, then a sous chef is a great job to consider. Sous chefs aid executive chefs and perform a range of duties in the kitchen. This sort of job also adds valuable experience on a resume for those looking to pursue another role in hospitality. Also, there are some great perks, like restaurant discounts and free food!
2. Medical Assistant
Median Pay: $30,844
A medical assistant career is a great way to get into the medical field without having to spend plenty of time and money on medical school. This job is the perfect starting point for those interested in becoming a registered nurse, a medical office manager and more. While it does require a certification or registration, one can enroll in a medical assistant course any time after completing high school. There are a number of online medical assistant programs available to those who are not able to travel to school. This handy guide outlines the steps required to become a medical assistant, and allows one to research various schools and programs by each state.
3. Startup/Small Business Owner
Median Pay: $65,616
All you need to start your own startup or small business is an idea. This may sound idealistic, but some of the million dollar companies like DropBox, Wordpress, Tumblr (to name a few) were in fact created and founded by individuals who don't have college degrees. Perhaps the most well-known college dropout is Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, now valued at over 150billion dollars. With crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter and Indiegogo and venture capital firms like FundersClub, it's now easier than ever to get funding for your startup or small business. Maybe your idea won't match the level of Facebook – but you'll never know if you don't try!
4. Freelance Blogger/Writer
Median Pay: $35,915
Imagine getting paid to write about something you truly passionate about. From travel blogs to home and garden publications, "freelancing" your work is a great way to earn money while also getting your voice heard and building up your authorial reputation. In today's world the internet is a staple in most people's lives, and the opportunities to write for an online publication or blog are more than abundant. One of the benefits of this sort of job is that you can work from home or any environment with an internet connection.
5. Web Developer
Median Pay: $54,771
If you are good with computers and willing to take some basic coding courses, a job in web developing could be a good fit. This job consists of designing websites, fixing glitches, creating content, and working on Search Engine Optimization. Web developers are increasingly in high demand, and web developing is one of the highest paying jobs you can get without a degree.
6. Mechanic
Median Pay: $41,456
This might not be the most glamorous of jobs, but it does pay well. Being a mechanic helps you cultivate skills that can take you almost everywhere. It's an ideal job for someone who likes to travel or finds the need to relocate.
7. Salesperson
Median Pay: $41,604
If you are an outgoing person and enjoy interacting with different types of people, then a sales job is a good fit. Most businesses need to sell a product or service to make a profit, so there will always be an opening for a sales person. Sales careers teach you a variety of different skills (such as how to market yourself, how to talk to people from various backgrounds, etc.) and can be transferred into many other careers as well as your everyday life. Sales isn't a good fit for everyone, but if you are a successful salesperson you are almost certain to make a lot of money while expanding your professional network and simultaneously gaining useful life-skills.
8. Fire Fighter
Median Pay: $43,551
Riding in a fire truck is almost every boy's childhood dream. While the job itself can be dangerous, firefighting is definitely one of the most rewarding careers out there. Not only does it give back enormously to the community, firefighting is one of those jobs that the potential for advancement. With time you can rise to be a supervisor in various firefighting departments (forest fires, local etc.)

One day, when I was in second grade, I raised my hand to go to the bathroom, the teacher ignored me, and I peed in my pants. [Yes, she ignored me. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.] The teacher did not, however, ignore the girl one seat ahead and to the right when she raised her hand to report the puddle beneath my seat. Instant shame. Head to toe. Even now in this moment I feel a shadow of that shame; but also, as I disclose my story, I feel a subtle wave of liberation rising up. Words matter. Silence hurts. And stigma is often the most damaging part of any health condition. So let's talk about stigma, specifically as it relates to incontinence, a health issue with a very potentially public aspect, as my second grade self can tell you.
Stigma can cause us to feel (1) different and (2) devalued. Sometimes words do the stigmatizing – she peed in her pants! Other times the message is nonverbal – in the form of stares and double-takes. Then there is that unhelpful habit we humans have of projecting insults or judgement from an imaginary other. However we come to feel stigmatized, the unfortunate consequence can be an unwillingness to engage in our lives as much as we would like. As a pelvic floor physical therapist, I see this all too frequently. I have patients that want to attend exercise classes or parties or even vacations with their families, but refrain for fear of leaking or feeling embarrassed about how often they have to go to the bathroom. No one wants to feel exposed.
While undoubtedly society itself has a responsibility here to change – to not intentionally make people with incontinence feel different or devalued, such a change can take years and years. Just ask anyone who has fought the good fight to eliminate the "R" word for those with cognitive challenges or to stop discrimination against people with AIDS or any number of other health issues – pick your battle. For those suffering from stigma today, it's simply not practical to wait for society to get on board. Personal resilience is what's needed here. And now. This means facing fear. When we face the things that scare us, it turns out that we actually relax the fear circuitry of our brains. In deed we are not so hard-wired. Change is possible. Old dogs? New tricks.
In addition to new tricks, we also may benefit from new beliefs. We need strong beliefs to bolster our confidence – like this: no one defines who I am. I think we can all agree with this statement, even as we struggle to not let others get under our skin. A phrase that I've personally borrowed in order to hold on to myself is this one – what other people think of me is none of my business. When I remember this, I feel suddenly freed. At least for the short term. I can repeat it as many times as I need to.
If you are not living your full life because you believe other people's negative opinions of you are your business, then ask yourself this: What is more important – living your life the way you desire or hiding from the life you want to live? What is more meaningful – who you think you are or who someone else thinks you are? I know you know the answers.
One of the best known antidotes to stigma is social support. Did you know that one in four women over the age of 18 have incontinence? Did you really think you were alone with this? If you start a conversation about leakage with someone you know, you may be surprised to find how much good company you have. People just aren't talking about it. People need to start talking about it! The more we talk about how incontinence is a thing, the less of a thing it will be.
Here's another antidote to stigma. EXERCISE! I know you may not believe me, because I'm a physical therapist, and I pretty much think the answer to everything is exercise, but guess what! Researchers have found that building muscles increases the resilience of the mind. Like anything, the proof is in the pudding, so even if you don't buy it, you can try it. And see for yourself. "I wish I didn't just exercise," said no one ever.
Lastly, if you are going to fight stigma with personal resilience, then it is going to be important to stay positive. Positive and realistic. This aspiration could take the shape of positive affirmations or positive self-talk – the kind that makes sense to you. Throwing some of my own ideas out there, you could try saying to yourself: I can handle what comes my way. I deserve a wonderful life. I am worth this. I'm doing this, because this is important to me. And need I remind you? What other people think of me is none of my business.
There's so many good reasons to reduce stigma and to build resilience, but as a pelvic floor physical therapist, I find some aspects of this work conflicting. For instance, there is a movement out there called underwareness, and I cannot deny that I love this title. I especially love their commercial. I think that the company that makes these underwear is doing a great job of reducing the stigma of incontinence, but it's hard for me not to believe that they are doing this in order to make a buck by reinforcing a need for their product. We also have Whoopi Goldberg out there doing good destigmatizing work, while promoting the use of pads. I am all for recruiting role model celebrities to dismantle stigma, but once again, I find their agenda to be off course.
Let me tell you why I want to help destigmitize the condition of incontinence. Because I know that this stigma actually keeps 11 out of 12 women from talking about incontinence with a healthcare provider. Because those that decide to seek help wait an average of seven years to do so.
Stigma is not only keeping people from fully engaging in their lives. It is keeping them from seeking help! Let's face it. Incontinence underwear and pads are essentially a band-aid for what is most often a very fixable problem. That's the message that is not getting out there. Why not? Well for one thing, physical therapists can't make commercials. We are not a product. We help you get rid of products. Sometimes we help you avoid medication and surgery too by the way!
Questions… If you leak or have frequency/urgency issues, are you going to be one of the 11 out of 12 people who don't ask for help? Are you going to wait 7 years to see what can be done about this? Please find a pelvic health physical therapist near you, because if you want to know the easiest way to remove the stigma of incontinence, it's to take back control of your bladder.

P.S. Also hold on to strong beliefs about yourself, stay socially connected, exercise and be positive. : )

Urban forest schools funding from People's Postcode Lottery
Thanks to a funding boost from players of People's Postcode Lottery we are offering educational experiences to children in Small Heath that will transform their lives and boost their confidence.
A project which offers regular access to nature was given the go-ahead in 2015 thanks to the generosity of players of People's Postcode Lottery.
Children, some of whom have never had the chance to explore wild spaces – are now experiencing the natural world through a range of activities at The Wildlife Trust for Birmingham and the Black Country's EcoPark environment centre. The £130,000 of funding has been paying for the provision of Forest School activities which provide fun, engaging opportunities to develop child and parent confidence, while spending time outside in nature.
This is one of six projects being funded, along with two others which started last year in Leicester and Manchester and three new ones this year in Bristol, London and Nottingham. At EcoPark there is now a popular programme of free family events during school holidays throughout the year.
Schools are being given funding to come and use the facilities for the first time, in order to experience outdoors education and then become regular users of environmental education as part of their routine. We are also ran a competition to get schools to show how they give their children more wild time in order to win prizes, such as a wild makeover for their grounds.
Developed from the Scandinavian model of learning through play outdoors, Forest Schools provide of a programme of visits over a number of weeks. These give children a chance to build relationships with the environment, their leaders and classmates and have ongoing opportunities to get to know wildlife. The leaders are trained to watch the children closely, appreciate different learning styles and personalities, and provide the right support for the individuals they care for.

Riley: Jonathan Rose no longer with team
LINCOLN, Neb. —
Senior Jonathan Rose is no longer with the team, Nebraska head football coach Mike Riley said after practice Tuesday.
The cornerback from Leeds, Alabama, played in most of Nebraska's games this season, appeared in 13 games as a junior and 10 games as a sophomore. In the team's win over Michigan State, Rose logged his first career interception.

I had intended to post about it last weekend. And then when that didn't pan out, I promised again (publicly!) that it would be up on Monday. And then it wasn't. ALL WEEK. I failed multiple days in a row. And it's totally Matt's fault.
We can't be mad at him though. Matt was an absolute wiz at all the planning, building, cutting, sawing, drilling, sanding, puttying, and otherwise-technical parts of the project. In fact, he pretty much did the whole thing himself.
But I primed (with this oil based primer) and painted (with this in satin finish)! And added the little handles (from Home Depot). Priorities.
And then he unpainted - or rather: reapplied putty, sanded and repainted - a section because it was "bothering him". No matter. It's finally done.
All in all, the project cost a total of about $500, which seems like a lot, but compared to the pre-fab kits which run around $1800, I'd still say we made out on top.
I can't actually describe much of the building process to you because Matt spend countless hours alone in the garage measuring and gluing and assembling this thing until it became his enemy. And ultimately, neither of us was very good about taking pictures or keeping up with the step-by-step. This was definitely one of those wing-it-as-you-go projects.
So when I asked my handsome fiancé if he could do a little write up for me of what the process was actually like, this is what he said:
1. Buy all the stuff
2. Realize that it's the wrong stuff
3. Cut the wrong stuff to try and make the right stuff
4. Build things with cut stuff
5. Realize built thing doesn't fit
6. Cut stuff off the built thing
7. Paint, paint, paint to cover bad stuff
I'd say it's a fair and accurate representation. There was a point in the process where he had the bed fully assembled in the garage and we weren't completely sure we'd be able to navigate it down our narrow hallway. It didn't occur to either of us that it might not fit until after the frame was complete and everything was strongly fastened together with glue and nails and screws and more glue. But with a little luck and some clever maneuvering we managed to make it down the length of hall and into the guestroom with only a handful of wall-scuffs and curse words (and worry not, neither of the cats were squished in the process).
That being said, here are the pictures I did take for your viewing pleasure.
I'm so completely thrilled with how it came out! I have a place for my books. I have a place for my guests when they visit. And now I have space in the room to set up my craft stuff. That's my kind of DIY!
A BIG F-A-T thank you goes to Matt for his work ethic, endless patience and complete willingness to trust my judgement and make my dreams into reality!
