Beauty. Order. Concentration. Harmony. Nature. Child-centered learning. At home.
Beginning with Cristina's wonderful blog on the integration of Montessori philosophy in the home, followed by our family's recent visit to a local bilingual Montessori school, and ending with my reading the highly-recommended Simplicity Parenting (book review forthcoming), I decided to rethink and redecorate nuestra casa to better accommodate E. and to her facilitate her play and learning. I found that both personally and professionally (from the perspective of a former teacher), I resonate with the Montessori philosophy.
"Montessori education is an educational approach developed by Italian physician and educator Maria Montessori and characterized by an emphasis on independence, freedom within limits, and respect for a child's natural psychological, physical, and social development…." Some of the defining characteristics of a Montessori classroom include "student choice of activity from within a prescribed range of options; a constructivist or "discovery" model, where students learn concepts from working with materials, rather than by direct instruction; and, freedom of movement within [a mixed age] classroom" (Source).
The Montessori method also calls for a "prepared environment," or a carefully-tailored learning environment – in my case, the home – that is specifically tailored to a child's age, personality, and learning style, and which helps the child develop increasing independence. What does this "prepared environment" look like? It should exhibit:
- "An arrangement that facilitates movement and activity
- Beauty and harmony, cleanliness of environment
- Construction in proportion to the child and his/her needs
- Limitation of materials, so that only material that supports the child's development is included
- Order
- Nature in the classroom and outside of the classroom" (Source)
So, what has this meant for nuestra casa? Here are a few "before" and "after" thoughts:
Although having too many toys was never our problem, order and presentation were. To keep the common living space looking "toy-free," we would shove all of E.'s toys into pull-out baskets in the bookshelf. I even came to congratulate myself on how adult and put-together our apartment looked. However, I finally realized that, although E. knew how to open the drawers, she never bothered. Why?
My theory is because each one held a mess of toys, random toy parts, and other "not-toys-but-she-can-use-them-as-toys." How ugly to her eyes and overwhelming to her little developing mind! If I as a teacher had to clean up my classroom at the end of each day before I could grade papers or plan a lesson, the same would apply to E.
Now, we keep five to seven toys out on display – each with its own space – on low bookshelves and coffee tables for E. to easily access. Having only one toy in one place also allows her to concentrate on one at a time, another Montessori principle. And, not only is the arrangement visually appealing and orderly, but having only one toy in one spot helps E. learn to return each toy to its place when she's done (we're working on this together!).
Besides the toys shoved into baskets, E. didn't have her own space or corner in the living room. Even her high chair at the bar is out of her reach! So, I got to thinking: how could I create a beautiful and mini-sized space just for her?
I purchased a kid-sized table and chair at IKEA. Made of wood and painted black, it fits perfectly into our common dining area. We are now teaching her how to pull out the chair and sit on it (a new skill for her). I also purchased a wooden stand that holds a roll of blank paper; next to it sits a woven basket of crayons, which she loves to chew on. Little by little, she is working on her fine-motor skills of grasping the crayon and moving it across the paper.
Besides the vintage bar cart and acoustic guitar hanging from the dining room wall, little E. didn't have anything of hers catching her attention at her eye level. So, when she wasn't trying to grab a glass from the liquor cart or strum a tune on the guitar, she was emptying the clean dishes out of the dishwasher, opening the tupperware drawer, or scanning the books on the coffee table (i.e., all things at her eye level!). While all three of those are available to E., they weren't "hers."
So, to inspire and nurture her creativity, I hung one of my mother's quilts above the basket of books, which sits next to E.'s desk; and, to remind her of all the people who love her, I hung three photographs of family above her table. I plan to occasionally rotate the photos so that the area remains stimulating and interesting to her.
I confess that I'm the first to shout, "You can never have too many books!" But, the basket of E.'s books in the living room had reached its storage capacity, and then some. Books were overflowing from the basket, causing pages to rip, and ultimately making it difficult to choose one to read at bedtime.
I stored about two-thirds of the books, leaving about seven or so in the basket. The result is a more peaceful (yes, peaceful) and inviting basket. My plan is to rotate the books every week or so, leaving one or two of her favorites, and adding new ones.
These might seem like minor changes, but the results of simplifying and beautifying our home for E.'s sake have been positive: she regularly plays with the toys on display, has become more focused in her play and less inclined to throw her toys in frustration, and is excited to hold the crayons and paper all while "oohing" and "aahing" at the photos on the wall.
Over the coming weeks, we plan to "invite Montessori" to nuestra cocina and la habitación de E. So, stay tuned!
If you'd like to learn more about incorporating the Montessori philosophy into the home, I encourage you to check out the blogs Montessori en Casa (written in both English and Spanish) and Living Montessori Now, as well as How we Montessori.

Review: The Crossley ID Guide: Raptors
Richard Crossley's initial foray into the crowded North American field guide market was greeted with something along the lines of wild enthusiasm when it wasn't being being derided as the finest inducement of epileptic seizures as your likely to find in a nature book. I've gone back and forth on it as a tool for identifying birds, but I stand by what I said before. That Crossley, if nothing else, really deserves credit for blowing the doors open on what we should expect for a field guide, even if I can't spend a lot of time looking at his forest birds because the depth of field thing just kills me.
But remove the need for the eye to observe birds in three dimensions by making the backdrop a distant shoreline or a wide prairie or, best, the broad blue sky, and you've got something here. The bottom line is that I am not convinced that Crossley's busy collage style really works for a full field guide.
Hawkwatchers have long had a library at hand with considerable pedigree. Dunne et al's Hawks in Flight being the father of the genre and still holding up well in a second edition thanks to a mix of great new photos and the classic illustrations by David Sibley. Jerry Liguori has charged into the field with a pair of volumes indispensable in their narrow niche, and it's nice to see Liguori's expertise put to good use here as it's his books that seem to be the inspiration, intentional or not, for Crossley's interpretation. What, then, is this ID guide but a mashup up of Hawks at Every Angle and Hawks at a Distance?
The third in that formidable trio is eBird guru and hawkwatcher extraordinaire Brian Sullivan. The three of them have pooled strengths to make this book an instant leader in the field. But as with the last Crossley guide, this one is intended to be more than just a means by which you puzzle out those hawkwatch specks, and I'd even argue that's not what it's best at. Guides like this are intended to be workbooks. Of course, every field guide now on the market has this as its intention, going so far as to urge birders to set it aside when the bird is in view, or to keep it handy for when you're not birding, but none are so explicit as Crossley. The guide includes a series of quizzes throughout intended to test you on what you're learning. And this is really where Crossley's style shines.
This plate is entitled "Topsides" and it shows a variety of unidentified raptors from the top encouraging the reader to try to identify them based on criteria from the individual species accounts. Now granted, this type of thing really only works once as a quiz, but the reference is the sort that is most valuable for those trying to identify raptors and it forces you to take into account the more subtle aspects of proportion, shape, and style that take decades to grasp before. Hawkwatching it always going to be touch, but birders these days have the sort of head start that was unimaginable 40 years ago when the practice began to catch on. It's a wonderful world that we live in that this is so.
I'm still not 100% on board with the Crossley style, but that's ok – even Roger Tory Peterson himself didn't nail every one of his graphics either. But this specific book, full of birds typically seen in expansive settings or on the wing works pretty well.
Check that. It works really well.
If they haven't already, hawk enthusiasts are going to enjoy this one.
Thanks to Princeton University Press for providing me with a review copy
D. Els permalinkMay 21, 2013 6:44 pm
I think this review nails it. I like looking through the book, but I have a very hard time digesting the color plates and using it to learn. The text is pretty straightforward and informative though, very well-written.

tout de la fruit
paris is wonderful isn't it? we only left three days ago and it already seems like a distant memory! i had a lovely time though and my boyfriend's going to have to work extra hard to make sure all of my christmas presents are this good in future! (i kid, i kid.. well.. maybe..)
we were very lucky with the weather, it didn't rain once and it wasn't too cold so we spent most of our long weekend wandering the streets, eating crepes and getting lost. it was pretty special. we did do one super touristy thing and went up the eiffel tower as we hadn't done that together before and apart from the queue it was magical. i didn't realise we'd been up at the top for over an hour just.. staring and taking it all in. (and taking stupid selfies)
the rest of our time was spent drinking wine (it is SO cheap the geordie in me still can't cope with this fact despite numerous visits to france). HUGE plastic bottles of wine for 2 euros. i'm basically trying to say i was drunk for most of my time in paris and i don't regret a thing. pictured above are crazy french versions of long island iced tea cocktails.. i know, right? those weren't so cheap but they were worth it.
i was treated to champagne and macaroons at laduréee on our final day which was the most incredible thing ever. i know there's a store in covent garden but it's nothing compared to the experience you get when you visit in paris. stupidly expensive i'd agree but it was one of my favourite things to do and i'd definitely recommend it if you go to paris.
i spent a lot of time in various sephoras and pharmacies browsing and trying to decide if i wanted to buy anything. the last picture is all of the things i bought - not quite as much as i expected i would but i'm looking forward to trying everything out. does anyone else get mega stressed out in sephora? there's just so much choice i find it impossible to shop in. in the end i figured all of the brands stocked there i could get in the uk/online so i opted for a few sephora own brand bits and bobs.
when we got back to london my ghd air dryer was waiting for me which was SUPER EXCITING. i've only used it once but i'm in love already. one more day until the weekend :)

GeneNews aims to fix compliance gap in early cancer screening
GeneNews (TSX:GEN) is addressing the major issue in early cancer screening - patient reluctance with inconvenient and intrusive screening methods - with a suite of differentiated molecular diagnostic tests that rely on a convenient in-office blood draw to find cancers of the colon, lung, breast and prostate, early. "If patients will not undergo screening because of the test, it severely limits the usefulness," chairman and CEO, James Howard-Tripp, says in an interview with BioTuesdays."And because there is this compliance gap, healthcare providers are actively seeking ways to improve cancer screening and improve patient outcomes." For example, he points out that the American Cancer Society has set an "80-by-18" goal for healthcare providers to have 80% of their qualified patient population screened for colorectal cancer by 2018. "Today, less than 59% of patients have met this goal," he says, adding that colorectal cancer is highly preventable when detected early.

Product Group Tests
Group Summary
The Top Layer IPS 5500-150E v 5.12 is a solid product with all the features you need. For its features, ease of use and performance we award Top Layer our Best Buy. The NitroGuard IPS from Nitro Security Inc. is a solid product with good integration to other NitroView products though a bit high priced in its full configuration with the ESM. For its excellent performance, ease of use and flexibility we award NitroView IPS our Recommended rating.
Full Group Summary
This month we looked at some of the leading IDS/IPS products. This has been a staple of our annual Group Test reviews schedule and that has given us a chance to track the evolution of these products and the markets they serve. This year there are two noticeable changes. First, the footprint we are seeing is decidedly distributed. Second, the functionality continues to approach universal threat management.
There is another trend that, really, is an outgrowth of the functionality trend. There are fewer real IDS/IPS products in the marketplace. This is exactly opposite from the trend we saw last month in UTM products and that is no accident. IDS/IPS vendors see the writing on the wall: the IDS/IPS as a stand-alone product is a dying breed. We made the same observation the month before relative to anti-malware gateways.
The die is cast and the future written. Next year at this time we will begin to see what this new UTM market really looks like. In the meantime, there still are very credible IDS/IPS products, and from our perspective here at SC Labs, that's a very good thing. The use of a distributed IDS/IPS is a step forward for most very large enterprises. To date there have been ways to gather data from multiple sensors to be sure, but the emerging architecture of separating the control center from the sensors is a step forward.
Even with that change, we found that there is a lot of data being fed to the consoles. These analysis consoles come in two flavors. We see web-based thin clients with Java applets and we see fat clients with heavy dependence upon Java. The fat clients require far more real estate in the desktop than do the thin clients, especially in terms of memory. Some of our smaller computers failed under the load of a heavy attack stream against its sensor.
Another trend we saw is the beginning of the export of IDS/IPS data into analysis tools by design. Of course we always could get the data if we wanted it, but we are seeing more analysis capability than ever before. We attribute this trend to the need for forensic analysis of network events at an increasing rate. Network attacks have become the province of specialized malware. The notion of the blended threat is old hat now and we need to be able to analyze malicious activity at a depth beyond that which we were used to in the past. We are beginning to see analysis tools built into IDS/IPS products.
How to buy IDS/IPS
Start with an understanding of your environment.
If you have a large distributed enterprise, a distributed footprint for the IDS/IPS is your best bet. Sensors should be placed where they can do the most good. Analysis of your data flows is a very useful starting point. This helps minimize the number of sensors required to get the most useful information.
Understand what it is you want to see/do.
Today's products are incredibly versatile. You may configure multiple sensors differently depending on your objectives. Product costs vary, but none are cheap. Match the product to your need and look for extra features that approach UTM functionality. If not fully UTM functional today, most will be tomorrow. Protect your investment by looking at the vendor's development path to ensure that your new product will grow with your needs.
How we tested
We evaluated the products for this Group Test for ease of set-up and configuration, especially policy management, which has become quite flexible in most products. We looked at reporting and the ability to block malicious traffic, as well as how effectively the product was supported with updates.
Finally, we subjected products to our Attack Pod using both vulnerability scans and penetration tests from Nessus 3, NetClarity and Core Impact. Our test bed included a variety of patched and unpatched targets running different flavors of Windows and Linux. We used our new Mu appliance on a few of the products as a test of claimed zero-day protection. In most cases, the tests confirmed the vendors' claims. We were able to improve our monitoring through the use of our new Network Critical CriticalConneX CriticalTAP, which allowed us to monitor both sides of the test bed with a single sniffer.
The bottom line for this Group Test is that the products are becoming more versatile, more powerful as analysis tools, and more distributed. They are not becoming exceptionally more difficult to use and manage, however. And that's good news, indeed.

Meet Troy – The Soldier!
With a respectable military background and a big fondness for order, discipline – and punk music – Troy stands tall and marches proudly! Unfortunately, his hooves can turn lambs into woolly-pancakes, so it's up to Matilda to keep the lambs safe from Troy's stompy behaviour.
Troy's fellow brothers-in-hooves have moved to greener pastures – Leaving him all by his lonesome. With no commander to lead him and no war to fight, the old stallion endlessly marches in circles.
Out of respect (or fear), most of the farm community have learned to stay out of Troy's way.
Even the Bull, George, keeps a safe distance – And that says a lot!
If Troy's 'personal space' proves too dangerous for the lambs, the player can feed him sugar-cubes! This little treat will keep him busy long enough for lambs to pass by safely, with minimal trampling.
If a lamb is lost to Troy's reckless marching, he'll snap out of his daydreaming and mourn the loss – though it won't take long before he will return to his daily stomp.
Don't hang around too long or more woolly pancakes will be made!

China's yuan declined after the central bank lowered its fixing by the most since its August devaluation amid speculation the authority is turning away from active intervention to prop up the currency.
The People's Bank of China cut the reference rate by 0.22 percent to 6.3772 a dollar, close to Wednesday's onshore spot close of 6.3778. Major Chinese lenders have reduced sales of the greenback this week, after being seen in the market regularly since the devaluation, said a trader from a foreign bank. The selling of dollars contributed to a record $94 billion drop in China's foreign-currency stockpile.
"The PBOC will have to reduce its intervention as it has to earn trust from the market, and the cost of supporting the yuan is not low," said Kenix Lai, a foreign-exchange analyst at Bank of East Asia Ltd. Data released Thursday that showed a decline in producer prices and a slow recovery in consumer inflation indicate that fundamentals are still weak, she added.
The yuan in Shanghai, where moves are restricted to 2 percent on either side of the PBOC fixing, retreated 0.12 percent to 6.3852 a dollar as of 12:29 p.m. on Thursday, according to China Foreign Exchange Trade System prices. The freely traded currency in Hong Kong was little changed at 6.4682.
China's currency regulator has asked financial institutions in Shanghai and Guangdong to step up checks in their foreign-exchange businesses, people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. The central bank is probably stepping back from aggressive intervention and wants to observe whether the administrative steps are effective, according to Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp.
Foreign Banks
The yuan will be kept stable at a reasonable level, Premier Li Keqiang said on Thursday at a World Economic Forum meeting in Dalian, while announcing that foreign central banks would be allowed to trade in China's onshore foreign-exchange market.
The yuan slid 2.6 percent in August, the most in two decades, after the central bank said on Aug. 11 that it was adopting a more market-based methodology to determine the reference rate.
"The fixing today is in line with the PBOC's new policy," said Dariusz Kowalczyk, a Hong Kong-based strategist at Credit Agricole CIB. "It will continue to intervene to keep the yuan stable. It'll need to cut lenders' reserve-requirement ratios again this year as heavy intervention removes liquidity from the interbank market."

Georgia linebacker says Alabama has been best college visit
Breon Dixon has been to multiple SEC schools, but one visit stands out above the rest.
Dixon, a 4-star linebacker from Peachtree Ridge (Ga.), told the AJC's SECCountry.com that last season's visit to Alabama for the Iron Bowl was the best trip he's been on yet.
"The city was so crazy afterwards, and 'Bama had a big win,'" Dixon said. "It was just a lot better (than other visits)."
In the video above, the 2017 prospect talks about his visit to Tennessee this past weekend, how the Volunteers impressed him and he discusses his plan for his commitment next year.

Harold Pitcairn`s airline was profitable when he sold it in 1929.
Pitcairn was a pioneer of American aviation, and his airline, which would become Eastern Airlines, would grow over the years into the nation`s third largest carrier. If yet another sale goes through, this one to Frank Lorenzo`s Texas Air, Eastern would become part of the free world`s largest airline.
Pitcairn, a pilot and airplane builder, began his career flying the county- fair circuit in the 1920s.
One year after Congress authorized the post office to contract for airmail transportation, Pitcairn was low bidder -- at $3 a pound -- on the route between New York and Atlanta. Before he had even flown his first bag of mail, the post office extended his route to Miami.
Pitcairn built a fleet of eight single-engine, open-cockpit biplanes, which he called the Pitcairn Mailwing, and rounded up a crew of barnstormers and World War I veterans.
In July 1929, while aviation stocks were still booming on Wall Street, Pitcairn, who wanted to design planes rather than run a business, sold his company to North American Aviation for $2.5 million. And the company`s name changed to Eastern Air Transport.
By 1932, Eastern had become the first airline to fly passengers between New York and Miami in one day -- with about 10 stops along the way for meals.
Problems began early for Eastern, however. The airline floundered during the Depression when the postmaster general withdrew all mail contracts. But in 1935, World War I flying ace Eddie Rickenbacker began to put things back in order. Rickenbacker slashed costs, drove his workers hard and started turning modest profits for Eastern, according to Patrick Kelly`s book, The Sky`s the Limit.
He also moved the airline to its Miami headquarters.
General Motors, which had controlling interest in North American Aviation, found a group of investors who offered $3.25 million for Eastern. But Rickenbacker lined up a group of his own investors, including Laurence Rockefeller, and made a better offer -- and the airline was sold again.

God, can't wait for this. Going to buy it for 2 reasons:
1. It's one of those games that you don't pirate because of the awesome
2. I have a PSP-3000.
anyways cant wait for this
another game I'm looking forward to
This is basically the only regret I have about selling my PSP. I'm a big FF fan, and I played the J version to death.
Haha--And this is basically the reason I bought your PSP. I've been playing Final Fantasy since it launched for the NES, and still have a weakness for them despite the Japan-ness that the old sprite graphics never construed. It's something of an ambivalent indulgence.
Incidentally I've only touched a PSP once. But when I saw this game was coming out, I knew I had to buy a system. And since it's only out in Japan, I needed a PSP that could be/was hacked so I wouldn't have to wait for the US release. It's one I wouldn't mind owning like Pizzaroo stated, but I don't plan to buy it twice.
I'm still playing the (J) version.
I main Golbez, Squall, Kuja, and occasionally WoL. Fall '09 seems so far away.
Another reason will be the release of Final Fantasy Agito XIII
Portable version of XIII soon to be uploaded and opened up by winrar.
By like 2011. :/

Thursday night's first Republican presidential debates of the 2016 election season generated a lot of heat both on stage at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio and on social media. Google Trends was tracking which candidates were trending online both during and after the Fox News debates.
See how the #GOPdebate played out on Google searches with our interactive #dataviz http://t.co/QamsCucilR pic.twitter.com/llKGI8IfN4 — GoogleTrends (@GoogleTrends)
August 7, 2015
In an interactive timeline showing how each of the candidates trended in Google searches over the course of the two-hour debate, Donald Trump started out the number one trending candidate and ended at the top. A couple of times throughout the evening, Trump was briefly eclipsed by Ben Carson – first at 9:44 p.m. ET, then 10 p.m., 10:40 p.m., and finally at 10:56 p.m. – but remained the most-searched candidate overall. Former Arkansas Governor and Fox News host Mike Huckabee was the candidate was searched for the least.
Throughout the evening, "education," "taxes," and "abortion" were the issues that generated the most searches, with education most consistently at the top of the pack. "Foreign policy" remained flatly on the bottom throughout the debate.

During the early debate that preceded the main event, former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina was the clear trending favorite – remaining the most-searched candidate, other than two moments when Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal and Sen. Lindsey Graham briefly took the lead. Former Sen. Rick Santorum was the least-searched Republican candidate during the first debate.

Every month at youth group, we address a different set of topics. Starting last week with my lesson on Solitude and Silence, we started a month of Spiritual Discipline lessons. Yesterday's was on prayer. The two leaders who led this also had an interactive night, like my Solitude/Silence lesson. It all turned out very good but I only want to share one part of it.
One way to pray is through the acronym ACTS: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication
For the Confession station, we were told to all stand on some plastic, close our eyes, and hold out our hands. The leaders walked around and wiped this gritty goo all over our hands. When they were done we were told to open our eyes and see what they had done. The goo was a combination of corn syrup and dirt...so not only were our hands dirty but sticky as well.
This struck me as the perfect image of what sin is and how it affects me and others around me.
When we sin, it is as if our hands are covered with that sticky messy goo. Everything we touch is then affected by the dirt. My dirtyness affects my relationships with others and with God. I can pretend that the sin is not present in my life but it is obviously there, usually apparent to many. Even if I tried to hide it with gloves or pockets, I may be able to fool a few people but not God. There seems to be a growing thought that whatever I do is only my business and only affects me. To that I say, Not So! My sin affects the entire community around me every.single.time! First of all, when I have sin on my hands, I am not being the person that God created me to be which taints how people see God, through me. Next, all I would have to do is reach out and touch someone and oops! they are now messy too. Sin can be contagious. Lastly, when I have messy hands, people are going to be less likely to give me hugs, shake my hands, etc. Every time I sin, I separate myself others, intentionally or not, and the community is affected.
The more obvious relationship that is affected is my relationship with God. When I try to draw close to God with sin on my hands, the sin will make it hard for me to connect with God. For example, if I walked around with dirt on my hands and wanted to spend time talking with my dad, there might be a few moments of good conversation but more than likely, my dad will be distracted with the messy hands. He'd probably encourage me to take care of my hands first and He'd even volunteer to wash them clean. But if I ignore that and just keep chatting away, then our conversation will be affected and whatever wisdom my dad would want to otherwise share with me would be limited.
Another aspect that stood out to me in this analogy is that there is only one good way to remove sin. I could try to remove the dirty mess from my hands but even if I were able to remove all the specks of dirt, my hands would still be sticky and therefore would continue to be a distraction as well as continuing to attract other dirty things around me. Only when I take the time to wash my hands clean will the Lord graciously allow the dirt and stickiness to fall off my hands. He will make me clean...wash me white as snow.
God has promised that if we simply confess our sins...any wrongdoings in our lives...He will forgive us EVERY TIME! We don't have to prove to be better people. We don't have say four "hail Marys" and five "Lord's prayers." We only have to confess. We can never mess up too many times to make Him stop caring or wanting to clean us off. For that, I am so thankful.

I'd like to introduce you to my dear friend Andrea's new business, appropriately called That's The Spot massage therapy. I know Andrea because I used to be her dogwalker, and her dog Gypsy is the namesake of my business. Andrea and I have become friends over the years, and I am so excited about this new path she is on.
She quit her job at an insurance company and decided to follow her dream- providing massage therapy for animals. Andrea's company vision goes beyond therapy; she is skilled in the overall health and wellbeing of our furry friends, and is truly a healer and educator.
Andrea is one of these rare people who has a very stable, gentle, calming spirit. She helps ADD people like me feel more relaxed just by being in her presence.
Although she hasn't been in business even a year yet Andrea is already receiving rave reviews. Check out the yelp review of Andrea's company That's the Spot.
So if you need massage therapy for your pet (and we all do! see her site for all of the many benefits massage provides) please give Andrea a ring and be sure to tell her Jamie 'Cowbelly' sent you. Oh- and say hi to Gypsy for me. 🙂
P.S. This post is the start of a regularly featured pet business on this blog. I know so many really terrific pet industry friends who own fabulous businesses, and want to be able to share them with you on a regular basis.
I will also be featuring a regular pet product, something really cool that is maybe a little bit obscure, that has enriched my life, and/or the lives of people around me.

Over a decade ago, after facing major budgetary constraints, The St. Dorothy Development Committee was formed and the first St. Dorothy Oktoberfest Fair was proposed. The fair and Annual Fund saved a number of faculty positions and eliminated the need to combine multiple classrooms.
The fair not only continues to help our school thrive financially by limiting tuition increases and covers the cost of many infrastructure improvements, but it has become a neighborhood tradition here and in the surrounding communities.
We would like to thank the numerous sponsors of this event for their generous donations through the years. Also, without the St. Dorothy families donating the hugely successful grade level raffle baskets, as well as, filling over 200 volunteer positions, this fair could not continue.
As we have said in the past, this event is a huge undertaking, but every year it continues to be a memorable and successful event thanks to all of you!
Our sincerest thanks,
The Oktoberfest Fair Committee

About NICLT
The aim of the NI Children to Lapland Trust is to fulfil the dreams of terminally ill,long term ill and deserving children, by taking them to see Santa at his home in Lapland and other destinations.
NI Children to Lapland & Days to Remember
The aim of the NICLT is to fulfil the dreams of terminally ill, long term ill and deserving children, by taking them to see Santa at his home in Lapland and other destinations. We are a Northern Irish charity which helps children throughout our Province, by giving them a day they and their families will never forget. Many of the children endure the burden of illness throughout their entire lives – a lifetime which is sadly too short.The children who travel with us are nominated by their hospitals and doctors, who see for themselves the kids' excitement grow as the day approaches. I hope this year even more children will benefit and that many individuals and companies will support us in our fund raising efforts"
It costs £600 to send one child but any donation, no matter how small is greatly appreciated. Our running costs are kept to a minimum and you can be assured funds raised go directly to pay for the costs of a magical trip to Lapland for deserving, terminally and long term ill local children.
Many Thanks you for your support.
Kind Regards
– Jack Rodgers MBE, Chairman
(Please note: The hospitals are solely responsible for the selection of the children who travel on the trip.)
A trip to Lapland is a childhood dream. The Lapland Trust Charity creates lasting memories for deserving children and their families.
Being involved with the NICLT has given me such a feel good factor. Knowing that I am doing something so worthwhile and putting a smile on 'our own' kids faces is priceless.
Linda will remember the 'special moments' she and Tom had together in Lapland, my wife and child will cherish the day. – Thank you and everyone involved for giving your precious time in making this a 'Trip of a Lifetime'
The smile on Jack's face was magical. It was a trip of a lifetime that I will cherish forever
How You Can Help
The joy we create is priceless and every penny helps.No matter how much you are able to donate, it will make a real difference to the lives of local children living with terminal or a life limited illness. Join us as a volunteer and try something new.From abseiling to jail breaks and fun runs, Come Dine with Me competitions to international marathons, you never know where it may take you. Or, if you're in the business of making dreams come true, nominate us as your company's chosen charity or sponsor a child today, for only £600. Whether it's by donating money or spending time helping us to give the best gift of all to deserving children from Northern Ireland this Christmas…the gift of an unforgettable memory and a fantasy fulfilled.
As a school you have a unique opportunity to help. Never has there been a better time to get involved. Put the fun into fundraising and make a real difference. If only 20% of the 1000 plus schools in Northern Ireland were to run a charity day, ie a non-uniform day, crazy sock day, or any other form of fund raising, we would be able to double the capacity of the aircraft thus allowing us to take double the amount of children on this fantasy trip of a lifetime!. We really do need the support of the Northern Ireland schools for our Northern Ireland children. Please contact us to see how your school can help!
As a shop you can help a great deal by merely placing a charity collection bucket in your premises to help raise funds and promote a very worthwhile charity.

I missed my birth control pill twice in a row during the first week and had unprotected sex twice (he pulled out)
About halfway through the first week, I started spotting brown blood then it continued to last for 3 weeks but the blood changed to red about halfway through but isn't very heavy. I'm also super bloated and have been getting nauseous and really bad stomach pains randomly.
Could I be pregnant?

Arriva London introduces stylish new enviro friendly buses on Route 78
Back in September, Arriva London proudly announced that they would be the first operator in London to deliver a bus service using the brand new Enviro 400H City double-decker bus.
This week saw the delivery of that promise, with the introduction of the new buses on route 78 from Shoreditch to Nunhead, a route that Arriva London has recently retained to run on behalf of TfL for a further five years.
Peter Batty, Commercial Director at Arriva London was delighted to say:
"The new look bus is stunning and brings together a whole range of passenger and driver advantages, including a wrap-around windscreen and glazed stairwell. We are delighted to be the first operator in London to introduce them on route 78, and now they are in service see their full potential."
The bus is the same length as the New Routemaster, but slightly wider, and with increased head room on the upper deck, allows for more comfortable movement when taking or leaving seats.
The 10.4m long, two-door bus, is capable of carrying ninety passengers and is the continuation of the introduction of environmentally friendly buses in London , representing a further evolution of hybrid electric buses, giving greater fuel economy and reduced emissions.
Although the Enviro 400H City has some similar lines to the New Routemaster, it has also some distinctive styling of its own, particularly on the upper deck, with the panoramic window at the rear offering an excellent view for passengers.
Despite only having driven the bus during training to familiarise himself with the vehicle and for a day in service, Arriva London driver Mohammad was full of praise for his new charge.
"They're very nice, I really like it. It's very smooth, the braking is nice, the windscreen and mirrors are big and it's hybrid and environmentally friendly, I feel great to be part of it."
There are currently five buses on the route, but there will be a total of nineteen introduced over the next few weeks. Once you have taken a ride on the new bus, please let us know your thoughts.

George Virden Watsky – better known as "Watsky" – is an American rapper, poet, actor, and producer who has produced to this day six (or so) full albums. The latest, X Infinity, came out this summer. Although he has been recognized for his career in both acting and music, Watsky unfortunately slips under the radar of a lot of listeners out there. Some even claim that listening to his voice is like nails on a chalkboard (rude). But hey, everybody has their opinion.
Let's crack open this album and take a look inside.
"Tiny Glowing Screens, Pt. 3"
The album starts off with the intense and fast-paced vibe of this semi-inspirational song. From the get-go, you hear the bustling and movement of a city, slowly building up until the song's epilogue, which features a strange, almost riddle-like dialogue. The rest of the song is surprisingly uplifting, with great quotes and bars around every turn, including the title drop:
"Take every everything ever and we are that. Times infinity."
"Talking To Myself"
The second track takes a sharp U-turn from the vibe the first song established. The opening piano riff is a definite chill-giver and the backup instruments are sad-sounding strings. Generally, the theme to begin with is about the randomness and craziness of life, Watsky compares it to a race "that you didn't understand, but when you heard the pistol pop you ran." That's a pretty decent visual, if you ask me. Regardless, the rest of the song is very emotional and deals with the loneliness we all sometimes feel, and how sometimes we just wind up talking to ourselves instead of those around us.
"Have you felt a little off today? Had a lot to say but wound up talking to yourself?"
"Chemical Angel"
A song like this is on every rap album ever. Not to say it's a cliché—but it's a bit of a cliché. It's a song about taking "illegal substances" (let's keep it PG), the lens it puts over life, and partly how it's a constant struggle to shake its addiction. Oddly, though, it has a fast paced beat and happy-go-lucky tone to it, which makes you feel like you're "tripping" while listening to the song. Odd, but definitely effective.
"Chemical angel, comfort I crave. Don't come around no more. I'm already saved…"
"Little Slice"
My personal favorite, and one of the best songs off the album. This is the type of song you blast while driving down Main Street, shades on, on top of the world. It has a smooth, chill, head-bobbing beat while Watsky drops bars about partying all night long and enjoying the little yet extravagant things in life. If you're not a fan of listening to entire albums I recommend this song most out of all of them. It has a great message, beat, and vocals.
"I'm a groupie to the good life, looking for a taste of paradise. I don't need the whole pie, I just wanna have my little slice…"
"Yes Britannia"
Watsky is known for his odd beats and experimental rapping, and "Yes Britannia" is definitely a good example of this. It has an almost chilling opening beat that sounds almost like a reversed music box, followed by mostly percussion and string instruments. This certainly is a song that makes you think when you listen. At first, it seems like he could be singing about breaking up with a true love or leaving someone behind, but of course it can be interpreted in more ways than just one. Overall though, the song itself is very well comprised and is one of the more emotional songs on the album.
"Yes Britannia, loves a jester, and what a fool I've been…"
"Love Letters"
If you're looking for an intense and deep song, then you've come to the right track. Right from the first verse, the beat is low and bass-filled, with Watsky rapping at 5,000 words a minute about what it feels like to rap and be him. There's a lot of great rhythm and rhyme, but "Love Letters" is not a typical rap song. It has an oddly catchy but off-putting backbeat, as well as a chorus that completely changes the tempo of the song. But that doesn't mean the song isn't a good one. It just means if you don't like it, then you have a decently valid reason not to.
"So if you're blocking the future I wanna walk toward. Suit yourself, we're gonna lock swords."
"Stick To Your Guns"
Remember that controversial song "Pumped Up Kicks," by Foster The People? Well, you just stumbled upon its unofficial sequel. "Stick To Your Guns" is a very stripped-down and daring song on this album, and it focuses solely on how our world today deals with the horrible and all-too-common issue of school shootings. It's a very real and targeted song that I believe should be an eye opener to those out there who take advantage of these grave situations. And to be fair, it takes guts to make a song like this. If you read any news articles about "Pumped Up Kicks," most of them are very harsh and shame it for talking about a topic so sensitively. But really, I think these are the kinds of songs we need more of – ones that go against the grain of what we're told is music worthy and speaking the truth about the world we live in. But I digress. If you want a song that gets you thinking, and maybe fills you with just a little angst, "Stick To Your Guns" is the song I prescribe.
"You've got your finger on the trigger kid, cmon. Line it up, line it up, line it up and hit me with the truth."
"Brave New World"
If you wanna hear the quintessence of Watsky, "Brave New World" has such a quirky vibe you'll want to check your phone and make sure it didn't switch to playing Weird Al. It's difficult to explain this one, so I'm leaving it up to you to interpret it yourself.
"Easy, with a ballot, we can put a reality TV personality in DC."
"Going Down"
This is one of those comedy rap songs that are just as catchy as they are absurd, and if you have a strong bass speaker, crank it up all the way for full effect. But if you don't have a strong stomach and/or are easily offended, this is a song to skip over. "Going Down" is a song that at first listen you would bob your head to without thinking, but upon second listen would rewind the song asking yourself "did he really just say that . . .?"
"Midnight Heart"
Don't be fooled by the song's opening verses. It's not a softy. "Midnight Heart" is a very punky and head-bang-worthy tune that impressively still manages to add very deep lyrics in between heavy bass and electric guitar riffs. This song is for those true troupers who stuck around long enough with this album to hear this song. Not a standout, but still a good angsty jam.
"I can't bend over for someone I don't respect."
Tapping into an artist's mind and being able to relate through music is a beautiful thing, and the real situations and thoughts Watsky shares in this song are something I'm sure many people have gone through. "Conversations" is about talking with a loved one – in this case, his father. They're talking about setting affairs in order for when he becomes too old to be able to take care of himself, and the struggle with financial issues as well as having to send someone you love away for the rest of their days. It is an emotional and passionate song about sacrifice and recalling all the things someone has done for you and what you can do to repay them. It's a gem hidden deep in the album, but if you're lucky enough to find it, it will move you.
"But these days are flying past us and nobody seems to care. It's like we're sprinting towards a brick wall we're pretending isn't there."
"Knots" starts right off the ending piano riff from "Conversations" and taps into Watsky's spoken-word talents. It is an operatic recital with an orchestra and piano to convey emotions through the highs and lows of the song. I would say Watsky is a very adroit story-teller, especially at portraying mental images and scenes through his music. "Knots" isn't like any other song on the album and stands alone as its own beautifully unique, Frankensteinesque masterpiece. And that's pretty cool.
"To love and to be so naïve. To trust and to be so deceived. To mourn, forlorn, to be torn from you."
Following suit, "Roses" picks up right off of the ending piano riff from "Knots." It's very unsettling and acts almost as the grand finale for the last three songs. There's not much to it other than its long drawn out "Rubber Soul" style and the ending, which is really more or less a recap of the piano riffs mixed in with all the other instruments playing at once in a chaotic and eerie conclusion.
"If you don't see me around it doesn't mean that I fell. Yeah I'm doing well."
The final conclusion to this long and interesting album is . . . not a complete song? Yeah. I guess somebody accidentally hit the "white noise" button mid-recording, because in the middle of a verse it cuts to nothing but the sounds of a bustling city, which concludes what "Tiny Glowing Screens P.3" started at the beginning of the album. But, for what we have of a song, it's nothing too standout and I think that's interesting. Maybe he plans to pick up the rest of the song in a future release? The world may never know!
"You'll never know how much you provided. And I'm gonna try to do the same for my ki-…"
Overall, I think this album has a lot to offer for many listeners and is definitely worth the full listen. I also would encourage you to listen to more of Watsky's work, because he is a very talented but sadly under-appreciated artist. Other than that, thank you for reading, and if you have any feedback or opinions, I would be glad to hear them.
