It is well understood that financial pyramids are designed to collapse sooner or later. If you look at numerous forums dedicated to hyips on the Internet, you'll see that the most common topic, even more than making a profit, is the tracking for the HYIP admin.
There are only two reasons for such actions. First of all, the people who want to get back the invested and lost money are engaged in the search. The second category of those in the search includes depositors who were dissatisfied with the size of the profits received and want to improve their financial results, including at the expense of representatives of the first category.
It should be noted that there are three variants of searches. Each is quite different, but in all cases the final result is the same. No one can be found, and the search turns into an additional problem. So, what are the currently practiced ways to find HYIP admins?
Expedition tracking. This type of search is born in the forum depths. In the process of hot discussion a person is sure to appear who has information about the administrator's location or has connections at the highest level, which let him find anyone and bring to justice. The legend can be the most diverse, and depends solely on its author's imagination. This may be work in the FSB (Federal Security Service), and using secret military services, and searching for a user via an IP address through special services. The main goal of such information is to attract "customers" by describing in the most colorful and authentic manner his own opportunities to find people and bring them to legal responsibility.
After all, the author begins to develop a standard story – that what is left is only to pay for the services of these very representatives of special services. Most of the HYIP depositors drop out at this stage, but certainly there are a few restless ones, ready to pay for catching the admin. As a result, this person receives a certain sum, often several thousand dollars, after which he happily disappears.
Police tracking. Such a search consists in applying to the police with a claim about fraudulent activity. In the overwhelming majority of cases, the police cannot find anyone, and even if the administrator should be found, he appears to be an insolvent teenager or a station homeless who agreed to give his personal details to the HYIP representatives for a couple of vodka bottles.

"I'll pay the fine, I just don't want the points." This is not an uncommon desire expressed by drivers prior to a traffic court hearing when asked how they want to proceed. If the violation ticket was issued with the accused identified as the driver, penalty points follow the conviction as night follows day. There is no escaping them.
Increased penalties will come into effect today for drivers who put people at risk through excessive speeding, impaired driving, distracted driving and other violations.
In this article Paul reviews what can happen if you lie to ICBC. He examines three scenarios: Failing to be truthful when you apply for insurance, failing to be truthful when you make a claim and driving while impaired. All could result in loss of coverage and significant financial liability that could ruin you. Think twice before you are anything less than completely honest!
Q: My friend was riding his dirt bike along with his kids last weekend on a Forest Service Road which is an extension of a rural road. An RCMP constable stopped him and and informed him that he was riding without insurance and issued him a violation ticket under Section 24(3)(b) MVA which carries a $598.00 fine.
I was curious about the outcome of ICBC's rate fairness survey so I checked the box to be notified when the report became available. The notification arrived in my inbox this week and I've made a quick scan of the document. The diverse opinions on who should be held accountable for what and how rates should be set is interesting.
Q: I have a question about legality around modifying the exterior of my car. I have seen many modified (often lowered suspension as well) cars with front lip spoilers/splitters and I was wondering around the legality of them for a street car. Do you know if they are they legal to have or would they affect insurance in any way to have one if I were to be in a front end collision, either with another car or pedestrian?
Would you voluntarily submit to electronic monitoring of your vehicle in order to save money on insurance? I've been thinking about this lately in the context of my experience with an electronic driver monitoring app, our current concerns with ICBC rates and the seeming lack of consequences for drivers who don't follow the rules. With the right privacy safeguards this could safely and efficiently solve a number of problems.
According to this report for ICBC and the Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure from Ernst & Young our provincial auto insurance program is currently facing the following five challenges:
Ouch! My ICBC insurance rates are going up as much as 42% over the next five years according to an article in the Province newspaper. I already paid $630 this year for the privilege of having my fellow British Columbians help me pay for collision liability if I make a mistake and crash my pickup. I'm not looking forward to paying $895 in 2021, but when you consider how much you could be on the hook for if you didn't have insurance, even that doesn't look too bad.
Should I become an Uber driver? It looks like a good way to pick up some easy money and provide a lower cost service to people at the same time. Before you visit the Uber web site and sign up, you should consider very carefully what risks you might be taking and how it could affect you. That little bit of pocket money could quickly become a mere drop in the bucket when it comes to covering your losses if a collision should occur.

I need to preface this by saying I had just read "the absorbent mind". Going from a heavy theory book to a practical book was a bit of a shock and, for the purpose of review, probably not the best idea. However, my head was full with theory and I couldn't fit in more.
The other thing I need to say up front, as it strongly influences my opinion, is that I'm quite a hippy. I go quite far into science based attachment parenting. There is a chapter on discipline in this book and I disagree on every single point made. This, however, says more about me, than about the book and I'll try and keep to the middle without judging. I still can't imagine anyone advocating to leave a crying child alone, leaving the room, but this book does just that.
I think this book is written for parents without an education background or montessori background. It's a great first book! It aims to show you a way to implement Montessori theory at home, without buying all the things! You don't need all the things. The home provides so much already! I'm planning to homeschool, hence I'm making or buying materials, but you really don't need to if you're doing school.
The first chapter explains a bit about the theory. It's very clear and gives some great ideas that you can easily implement.
The second chapter is more practical and comes with ideas on how to help your child develop their senses. I love these ideas! It's also a good idea to search for sensory boxes on the Internet. There is so much available.
|Sensory bottles I made from stuff I mostly had at home already
The third chapter talks about how you can let go of control and involve your child in your home. Help me do it myself. The only thing I wanted to add to this chapter, is that you can start toilet training from birth (it's called Elimination communication if you want to find out more on this) and 50% of children in the world are fully toilet trained by age one. Nappies are a western invention and delayed toilet training is an invention of the nappy industry. There is no scientific research into this topic, all research is done by the companies! Of course, if you're into normal toilet training, go for it, it's not like you're harming your child (this is not sarcasm, but true!).
Once you start involving your child in everything and letting him do things for himself, letting him struggle until he asks for help, rather than intervening before he gets a chance to really try, life changes. And suddenly you find your child unloading the dishwasher and getting angry with you because it was clearly his turn to do chore xyz.

And suddenly you find your child unloading the dishwasher and getting angry with you because it was clearly his turn to do chore xyz.
Then we get to chapter 4. Lets open a can of worms. The first part is called "creating a loving environment". The second part encourages you to make sure your tantrumming toddler is safe and then leave the room for her to calm herself down. This is insane. I'm sorry, but how does this teach empathy? How is this loving? The child needs you, whether you say no or not, a hug or a cuddle will make it easier to deal with your no. Calling a tantrum irrational is downright rude and disrespectful. I mean, we all get upset over things that other people might find stupid and irrational. But when you're upset it's real for you! And you want a hug or a nice word. Imagine your partner walking out of the room every time you're upset! You'd kick him or her out in no time.
When a child throws a tantrum, it's important to stay connected. To help your child through it and to help your child regulate his emotions. Regulating emotions is something that needs to be taught! You may find this hard (I do), you may find it hard to control your emotions all the time (I do). My thoughts are that we never were taught, because our mothers probably walked out of the room, or worst, smacked us, for showing a normal range of emotions.
The other thing I want to add is that, of course, children are human. They can be grumpy and they can wake up on the wrong side of the bed. So can you. Suck it up. Don't punish your child for something you can't do as an adult.
phew, couldn't help myself there! The rest of this chapter is awesome. The idea of the peace table is awesome.
I skipped the bit about television. I don't have one (I'm a hippy, told you so). That's the easiest way to ban television tantrums, for sure!
|We planted potatoes on a local organic farm. The sights, smells, textures, tastes all provide great stimulation! We go here every month and talk about what we see and do. I let him as free ad is possible on a farm.
Chapter 5 talks about exploring the world. yeah, loved this chapter! Be careful when taking bugs home, they are living animals who can feel pain. I don't know, maybe it's because I'm a biologist, but I never collect things from nature and don't encourage my child to do so. We observe nature where we find it. I do have a small collection of shells and some stones. I got a few branches (fire wood, really) that I'll make building blocks out of. I'm keen to buy some river rocks and some bricks. These can be used out doors to build and move and whatever kids do with bricks and sticks.
Exploring the world is calming. Is great to do when you feel like tearing down the walls. It's mindful. Even walking quietly in the rain is calming. You can just wear a raincoat.

The book then goes on to suggest some games you can do with young children. I nearly fell off my chair, I played these games with my year 8 children!! They are about 13 years old. It is so awesome to include these things so early in life. Same goes for culture.
The last chapter is about whether or not to choose a montessori school. It raises some interesting points worth considering.
In conclusion: great book with some great ideas, but really quite wrong in their discipline advise, so if you can skip that bit, it's worth reading. That said, so much of this stuff is easily found on line!

Though next weekend, Labor Day Weekend, unofficially marks the end of summer, I can't help but cherish my first summer in the city – a bright, lively, and festive one filled with a ton of unforgettable, memorable experiences. After a long drawn out winter, I, like many New Yorkers, couldn't wait to spend as much time outside as possible. I kicked it off with a 10 day Eurotrip to Rome, Capri, Prague and Paris, and though I loved every minute of my solo adventure, landing at JFK and seeing those words "Welcome to New York", I've never felt more at home. Here's a look back at some unforgettable, must-do, must-try, summer activities next year – Continue reading "An Endless Summer – A Guide to Getting Through Summer in New York City"

I'm the author of five middle grade and young adult novels. Some of my books have won awards. Some of my books have made state reading lists. All of them have heart, great characters, and plot twists that will linger with you long after you finish the book. My favorite compliment is when readers blame me for staying up past their bedtime because they just couldn't put down the book. (Sorry, not sorry.)
I graduated from the University of Virginia with a degree in English Literature. Besides writing novels, I've also published essays and reviews in various publications including The Washington Post, The Tampa Bay Times, The San Antonio Express News, and The Stars and Stripes. I've lived on three continents, in four countries and five states. I currently live in Virginia with my family and a very mischievous hound.
How do you pronounce your name? Ooo, I'm glad you asked that! It is pronounced Ta-mar. It's not pronounced 'Tamer' (Tamer than what, I wonder when I'm called that.) It's not pronounced 'Tamara' because if it was, my parents would have put an 'a' at the end of my name. It's just Tammar.
Have you always wanted to be a writer? When I was five I wanted to be a mermaid. By age nine I was slightly more realistic and wanted to be an astronaut--the first woman on Mars. I went through a brief marine biologist phase--ironic given my sea-sickness--before realizing that what I really wanted was to read for a living. I am addicted to books. I cannot read enough. But I didn't really see a way to make money reading books, so I decided the next best thing would be to write them.
Me too! I want to be a writer but...
How do I begin? First of all, congratulations! I'm so glad you're interested in writing. We can't have too many good books in this world and the only way to get them is have people just like you write them. So, thanks. Now, the how could not be simpler. Find characters you love (or hate). Think about something interesting (or terrible) that happens to them. And then sit in front of your computer and find out what happens next.
That does sound easy! How long does it take? Tricked you! I didn't say writing a book was easy. I said it was simple. Light Years took me five years to write. Even though I had been an avid reader my whole life, it still took me that long to figure out how to make a good story. What keeps the pace tight? How do I create characters that readers cared about? I revised Light Years about 50 times. Literally. I read and re-wrote each page about 50 separate times. High Dive took almost three years. I wrote an entire draft then I threw it away and started over. Kindred and Spoils clocked along at two years. Generally, first novels take anywhere from 2-15 years to work out.
I'm in! How do I learn more? Hang around other writers! You learn about the craft, the discipline, the ins and outs of the business, and have other writers critique your work so that you get better and better at it. Writing is like anything else; it takes practice before you're good at it.
Good luck and keep in touch!

Greenwich couple charged with drug possession, risk of injury to minors
Police charged a couple living with an infant and a 5-year-old child with multiple drug violations after officers serving a warrant turned up nearly a pound of marijuana.
Authorities said they began an investigation of the second-floor apartment on Church Street West near the New Lebanon School last month following a number of complaints.
After surveillance determined there was probable cause, police went to the home the night of Feb. 13. The children were asleep at the time.
Christopher Hughes, 28, was charged with four counts of marijuana possession, including possession of marijuana within 1,500 feet of a school. He was also charged with risk of injury to a minor, possession of drug paraphernalia and operating a drug factory.
Erika Rippel, 26, was charged with two counts of injury to a minor and three counts of marijuana possession. The state's child welfare agency was notified.
The two were released and scheduled to appear in state Superior Court on Monday.

For this week's Money Saving Monday, it's part two of Bulk Buying Basics where I am going to share a little interview I did in Bulk Buying's honor.
Katie (KT) is one badass mother. She was an engineer before she had an army of kids, and now she hangs with them full time. While being a female engineer is enough to brag about, parenting 3 little
monsters children and keeping a household while maintaining relative sanity is enough for me to tip my hat to. On top of all that, Katie is super budget savvy. So I picked her brain for your (and my) benefit.
Katie Recently took the mommy plunge and bought a mini-van. What else could she haul all them kiddos in?
Name: Katie
Family Size: 5
Family Size: 5
Grocery Budget: $400 a month (this includes household items) + $180 a month for beer + $2600 annually for bulk meat
What a beautiful Family!
BTT: What is your bulk buying strategy?
BTT: What is your bulk buying strategy?
KT: While I'm a stay-at-home-mom, I can't abandon my background as an engineer. I set a goal for myself to buy 90% of my groceries and household items in bulk. My strategy was very calculated and methodical. I first identify items that we have purchased repeatedly, starting with the most frequent items. For my family at the time, it was formula and milk. Then I research all the places I can buy the items, whether that is online, in stores, at farms, etc. I determine the price that I would be paying, per ounce, at each location. I then determine how much we consume per week, and the frequency we will need to buy the item depending on how long the item can keep. From this information I can determine the cheapest place to purchase the item, and whether or not it's worth it. For example, we are consuming 256 ounces (2 gallons) of milk a week. We can buy the milk from Costco at $0.019/ounce or from a farm at $0.015/ounce. Saving a little over $1 a week is not worth going out of my way to a farm once a week to purchase milk, in my opinion. Next, I have to determine if I have the storage space available to store the items, and, if not, what do I have to purchase/modify so I do. If I do need to purchase/modify storage, then I determine the rate of return from the money we will be saving and decide if we want to take the plunge.
BTT: What items do you buy in bulk, and why?
KT: Bulk buying can be done across the board for any goods or services. I, personally, buy the following:
Household Supplies: Laundry detergent ingredients (to mix at home), fabric softener, cleaners, diapers.
Foods: Produce, meat, beans, lentils, cereal, crackers, baking ingredients, pasta, rice.
Foods: Produce, meat, beans, lentils, cereal, crackers, baking ingredients, pasta, rice.
The reason for buying in bulk for all of these items are really the same: to save money and reduce our packaging consumption. Bulk items are almost always cheaper than the packaged foods, regardless of coupons. I loath coupons, and I was so happy to price compare (mostly using an app called Favado) and see that the bulk items that I currently buy are cheaper nearly every time.
BTT: What items do you consciously avoid buying in bulk, and why?KT: There is very little I don't buy in bulk. However, I don't buy items that I can easily make at home from scratch, and items that I feel are damaging to the environment which we abstain from using at all. I won't buy sandwich bread, yogurt, frozen pizzas, cinnamon rolls, ice cream, and soup stock. These are all easily made at home with little to no effort at all. Also, in our household we abstain from using paper towels, disposable diapers during the day (night-time is a different story), non-reusable k-cups, and harsh cleaning chemicals. We try to keep our consumption and damaging chemical usage to a minimum. As a family of 5 we only produce 1-2 bags of trash a week, which has been a huge environmental win for us.
BTT: What are your favorite bulk resources?
KT: For every-day items I use Winco. I would say I really enjoy shopping there, but let's be real: it can be a madhouse. On occasion I will also shop at Grocery Outlet, but you never really know what they will have which can be a huge waste of time.
For produce I use Bountiful Baskets. BB is almost a nation-wide CSA style bulk produce delivery company. You can "participate" every 2 weeks. This means that you can place an order, or not. There is no commitment. That is a huge deal to my family, as we need to be flexible as possible with our budget. However, since we've found out about BB, we have participated each time. Each basket is roughly 50% fruit and 50% vegetables that are in-season. I've done price comparisons several times, and I've always saved a considerable amount of money.
For chicken I go to Zaycon. They sell 20lb packages of boneless, skinless chicken breasts for $1.99/lb. While this is not the lowest all the time, you don't have to worry about hitting 1-day sales or clipping coupons. The breasts come in boxes that you pick up at a local site (usually a church or a school), and you can go-to-town packaging, marinating, or cooking the chicken anyway you like.
For beef, it gets a little tricky. We us a guy named "Casey". We have found the best quality for the best price by asking around the family, co-workers, and friends. Of course, you can just Google ½ or ¼ cows for sale in your hometown, and you can find a lot of resources. However, you will pay extra for the companies that advertise.
For alcohol we use a local distribution company called Main Brew. We are fans of beer, and we were not willing to cut our microbrews from the grocery budget. Instead, we invested a little money in a used kegerator, and we have almost only been drinking from full-sized kegs for 6 months now. We pay 40% less than we would normally pay for beer, and the savings paid for the kegerator after just 2 kegs.
BTT: What is your favorite thing about buying in bulk?
KT: My favorite part about buying in bulk is that my kids eat almost no packaged foods. Of course, I'm not going to deprive them of a childhood, so we do buy crackers, fruit bars, and other easy-to-travel food for when we are out and about.
My husband's favorite part about bulk buying is the fact that we have about 3 months of food on hand. That's balanced meals, not just rice or protein powders. We are not yet at the "prepper" level of food storage, but if we ever fall on hard times we know that we can feed our family well.
BTT: What are the caveats to bulk buying?
KT: Two subjects must be considered before buying in bulk: preparation and planning. Preparing your home for bulk buying is no easy task. Types and amounts of specific items to be bought in bulk, appropriate storage space, sealing containers for food (we learned this the hard way), and learning the correct way to handle and store specific items. Each of the items is no easy task complete. It took us a good 3 months before we had our home ready for most of our bulk-buying, and we wasted a good amount of food due to inappropriate storage.
BTT: I've heard people say that when they buy meat in bulk, they eat more meat because they are trying to "get through the bulk", do you feel that way?KT: Nope. Our family likes to eat meat with each meal, so while we only have 2 adults, 2 young kids, and 1 toddler, we are still easily getting though a ½ cow and 120 lbs of chicken breasts in 6 months.
It does not feel forced, I just prefer to eat that much protein (I'm not much of a bread or starch fan). If your family enjoys meatless dinners, you dislike beef, or you just don't consume at the steady rate that we do, just plan on purchasing a ¼ cow. I've even seen companies that will sell a 1/8 cow, or you can go in on one with a friend and split the cuts. The beauty with purchasing less, is that you won't starve if you run out of meat. You can always buy more, bulk or otherwise.
KT: I'm a huge promoter of buying in bulk, but it's not just to save money. I'm not saying we haven't saved an astronomical amount of money. Our grocery spending use to be around $1400 a month for our then family of 4, and now months when we aren't buying meat, we spend less than $600 and we have added another child.
I think, though, that many people don't realize the amount of waste that is produced from packaged and name brand foods. You have the boxes, jars, and containers and sometimes internal packaging. Then you have ads, coupons, and flyers that are sent out in the mail, in stores, or that you have to print out from online. None of this adds quality or and other benefit to the foods or items that you are buying. It's all just so wasteful.
I could go on, and on about tips and short-cuts for preparing your home, but really none of that matters if you are unable to plan on consuming food and other items before they expire. This has been the most difficult struggle for me. I have 3 kids, 5 and under, doesn't give me a ton of time to sit down and create schedules and menus and can or freeze. Once we started buying produce in bulk, we really didn't have a choice of what we were receiving. This is a great way to not get in a rut with your menu, however, we have wasted food in the past because we didn't plan our menu according to what produce needed to be consumed first.
BTT: Any other money saving tips?KT: Buy things that you wouldn't have thought of in bulk: Movie tickets, childcare punch cards, and memberships to museums. Use your local library for movie rentals (I really wish I had discovered this sooner). Get rid of cable and use Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. Buy a programmable thermostat and turn down the heat in your house at night and when you are out of the house. (This list could just go on and on.)
A huge thank you to Katie for sharing all her bulk buying smartness. Blog To Taste has extended an invitation for her to guest post for us in the future, so be sure to check back with us later!

Pre-Operative Care Instructions for Urogynecology Surgery
1) Initial Consultation for Urogynecology Surgery:
When you visit our Center for your initial Consultation, please be sure to provide the following:
- An accurate medical history containing any and all pertinent information. Preferably, bring a copy of your current medical conditions/medical charts from your primary care physician.
- A list of all the medications, vitamins, supplements, and/or herbal products you take.
- These are very important as your medical history and medication intake must be carefully reviewed prior to creating a treatment plan and surgical appointment.
2) Reduce Complication Risks Early On for Urogynecology Surgery:
- Discontinue using aspirin (including medications/products that contain aspirin), Ibuprofen, and Vitamin E. Your surgeon may direct you to quit taking others as well.
- Many medications/vitamins/herbs/supplements, which act as blood thinners that may cause possible excessive bleeding, bruising, and other avoidable complications.
- Abstain from smoking for about 1-2 weeks before and after your surgery. Cigarettes impair blood circulation, discourage healing, and promote scarring.
- Abstain from drinking alcohol for about 1-2 weeks before and after your surgery. Alcohol has an effect on liver function as well as the efficacy of antibiotic (s).
3) Pre-Operative Consultation for Urogynecology Surgery:
- Before you are admitted or undergo surgery, you will meet again with your surgeon. At this time, you should notify your surgeon of any health developments such as influenza, bladder infections, diarrhea, etc.
- During this appointment, you will meet with your anesthesiologist. He or she will talk about anesthetic options and what he/she feels is most suitable for you (based on health condition (s), prior history, and your surgical procedure (s)).
3.1) Pre-Operative Medication Instructions for Urogynecology Surgery
3.1.1) One Week Before Surgery:
- DISCONTINUE taking any and all aspirin and aspirin-containing medicines (e.g., Anacin, Excedrin®, Pepto-Bismol®). Check any cold or pain medication to make certain aspirin is not contained.
- STOP smoking cigarettes and consuming alcohol for about 1-2 weeks prior to surgery.
3.1.2) Two Days Before Surgery:
- DISCONTINUE taking any and all non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (e.g., Etodolac [Lodine®], Fenoprofen [Nalfon®], Ibuprofen [Advil®, Motrin®, Nuprin®], Ketorolac [Toradol®], Maproxen [Aleve®], Meclofenarnate [Meclomen®], Mefenamic acid [Ponstel®], Naproxen [Anaprox®, Naprosyn®].
3.1.3) The Day of Surgery:
- Try to leave all of your jewelry and valuables at home. For your convenience, there is a valuables depository located on the 4th floor of the hospital.
- If you wear contact lenses, glasses or hearing aids, please bring proper storage containers/solutions with you. These items will be stored before your procedure.
- Try not to wear any makeup, especially mascara. Please remove nail polish and/or nail shellac as your nail plate and lunula must be clearly visible during surgery.
3.1.4) The Morning of Your Surgery:
- DO NOT TAKE digitalis medications (Crystodigin®, Digoxin, Lanoxin®, etc.).
- DO NOT TAKE oral diabetes medications (chlorpropamide [Diabinese®], glyburide [DiaBeta®, Glynase®, Micronase®], glypizide [Glucotrol®], tolazamide [Tolinase®], tolbutamide [Orinase®], etc.).
- TAKE your prescribed morning insulin dose. DO NOT TAKE your insulin dose if you must drive a long distance the day of your surgery.
- DO TAKE ALL of your other usual morning doses of regularly prescribed medicines with a small sip of water. DO USE your asthma inhaler (s) and make sure to bring them with you to the hospital.
3.2) Pre-Operative Diet Instructions for Urogynecology Surgery
3.2.1) 8 Hours Before Surgery:
- DO NOT EAT any solid foods as your stomach must be empty. This is a very important surgical safety precaution.
- DO NOT DRINK any 'heavy' liquids including milk-based products and gelatins.
- DO NOT DRINK any juices that contain pulp (orange juice, pineapple juice, nectars, etc.)
- YOU MAY DRINK up to eight ounces of clear liquids up until 6 hours before your surgery appointment. Clear liquids include water, pulp-free juices (apple juice, grape juice), black tea, and black coffee.
3.2.2) 6 Hours Before Surgery:
- TAKE NOTHING PER ORAL (NPO) except for maintenance medications that are approved by the above guidelines and/or your surgeon.
- Before undergoing an operative or diagnostic procedure under Sedation or General Anesthesia, you must refrain from eating, drinking, or taking anything per oral following your surgeon's guidelines.
- This precaution is taken to ensure your safety. When you are unconscious, complications from nausea or vomiting must be avoided. Should you vomit while unconscious, stomach fluids can flood the lungs causing serious problems such as pneumonia. These complications can easily result in an extended hospital stay and unforeseen expenses.
- For your safety, be sure to follow the NPO time given by your surgeon or anesthesiologist.
If your Urogynecology procedure does not entail a hospital stay, we are more than happy to assist you in booking a hotel or providing accommodation recommendations. A few hotels located near the hospital offer special rates for our patients. Feel free to contact us for more information.

This page is a work in progress
This page is my beginning to compile the useful resources I have come across in a few years of research. It is a collection of useful tutorials, good sources for materials, and anything else I have found useful. I will also begin making videos of techniques and tricks that I couldn't find on the internet and had to work at a softwoods company to acquire along with some videos of me sewing. For now it is just a list of places to buy materials, but the rest will follow as I have time.
For people at CMU: I sell Nylon (abrasion resistant) and polypro (doesn't absorb water) webbing in various sizes from 1/2" to 1 1/2". I also sell plastic hardware and some metal hardware.
geraldschwartz good for hardware, webbing, and some fabrics

In the meantime, review the steps below to guide you through the wheel buying process.
Alloy Wheels
Think about buying alloy wheels if you do a lot of driving in the mountains or in stop-and-go traffic. Some alloy wheels are designed to encourage cool air flow over the brakes to prevent overheating. The alloy itself can help dissipate heat, too.
Plus-Size Your Rims
If you want to improve performance and add a sportier look, think about plus-sizing your rims. With a larger inner diameter, you'll find steering is more responsive and your car holds the road better. Purchasing rims that are one or two sizes larger than what you have means you'll have to buy new tires as well.
Keep The Weight Down
Look for rims that aren't too heavy for your vehicle. Big, steel rims on a small car can decrease handling, stability, and gas mileage.
We proudly showcase some of the following wheel brands in our shop.

Barbados Netball Association President Nisha Craigwell and Minister of Culture, Sports and Youth Stephen Lashley in close conversation during the media launch of the AFNA World Cup Qualifier 2018.
Barbados to host Netball World Cup Qualifiers
Only two spots will be up for grabs later this year when Barbados plays host to the rest of the region for the Americas Federation of Netball Associations (AFNA) World Cup Qualifier 2018. Set to run from August into September, the hosts will be among 11 nations vying for positions in the 2019 World Cup.
During a recent media launch of the local event, Barbados Netball Association President Nisha Craigwell said that she was pleased to be hosting the upcoming qualifiers and that they would provide a platform for the association to make the next step.
"These qualifiers afford Barbados the opportunity to really see where netball has evolved and what it has come to on a professional level and that is exactly where our intentions are to take netball in Barbados to," she said.
With next year's World Cup slated for July in Liverpool and the team fresh off their stint at the Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia, Craigwell said that the team had a legacy to uphold as they were the island's highest-ranked sports team and had qualified for every World Cup thus far. "Barbados was one of two countries in the region who played in the Commonwealth Games and it means that we have a high standard to maintain. We have a record as one of five countries who have played in all Commonwealth Games and we have a record to maintain," she said.
With the island hosting the first ever qualifier for the region back in 2006, this year will see the recently-renovated Sir Garfield Sobers Gymnasium serving as the backdrop for the games which run from August 24 to September 2. A price tag of BDS$270 000 has been attached to the staging of the event and Government has pledged its assistance.
During the media briefing, Minister of Culture, Sports and Youth Stephen Lashley said that his ministry was willing to lend its assistance, particularly as it relates to the the cost of the venue, stating that there was a vested interest and the success of the event could only bode well for the association and the island. "The government has a vested interest in ensuring that once we bring tournaments of this kind to Barbados that there can only be one result – and that is we are able to deliver a successful tournament. It is key to the quality of our sports tourism product, it is key to ensuring that we can deliver even more tournaments across the gamut of sporting disciplines. However of course we cannot do that if we gain a reputation of not being able to deliver and deliver at a very high level." he said.
With Barbados currently ranked at 11 in the world, the Local Organising Committee has received confirmation from Argentina (40), Bermuda (30), Canada (27), Grenada (26), St. Maarten (32), Trinidad and Tobago (13), the United States of America (28) and the unranked Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica and St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

This profiling glider increases the value of data that is collected and provides the ability to direct the glider to areas of interest, rather than collect data from a single site near shore.
A new underwater robotic vehicle is collecting important data along the Gulf Coast today, thanks to a partnership among Shell Oil Company, the U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System, and NOAA's National Data Buoy Center (NDBC). In July, scientists recently launched an iRobot seaglider approximately 24.1 kilometers east of Shell's Auger platform, near Flower Garden Banks, in the Gulf of Mexico.
The iRobot seaglider collects data on temperature, salinity, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved organic matter, pressure, turbidity, chlorophyll, and backscatter down to 1,000 meters in various parts of the northern Gulf of Mexico. NDBC pilots this glider and has collected more than 250 profiles of data. Although NDBC has piloted wave gliders in the past, this is the first profiling glider operated by NDBC.
National Glider Asset Map
NOAA and Shell signed an agreement in 2008 to work together in the Gulf of Mexico to provide consistent, high quality data for weather forecasters and the National Hurricane Center. This agreement included several tasks, such as hardening meteorological systems on oil production platforms, providing separate power sources, and creating satellite transmission capability to provide data during platform evacuations due to severe weather. This current effort with the glider emerged from the initial agreement.

Jamie Jones' album Don't You Remember The Future was reviewed on BlackPlastic.co.uk two years ago and it felt a bit like drinking Diet Coke when we'd rather go all out and fill our gut with The Real Thing. It's an accusation you could level at a fair number of contemporary artists but it's a fair one - who wants to settle for 'not quite as good as...'?
Jones' Fabric album is a bit of a surprise. Firstly because it isn't the fairly minimal tech I've come to expect from artists associated with Crosstown Rebels, the label Jamie calls home. But even more surprising is that fact that it is the most easy-going, celebratory Fabric albums in ages. But this isn't a thinking person's mix - the track listing is pretty obvious - but it's a great collection of disco and house cuts to soundtrack a party to.
There is a mixture of newer and older records on Fabric 59 but Jamie clearly isn't afraid to be obvious. There was a time when finding a new mix album without Felix Da Housecat on it would be more difficult than with. Despite that Jones drops 'Madame Hollywood', from Felix's defining Kittens and Thee Glitz LP, immediately before plunging into the reverb heavy 'Body Shiver' by Waifs & Strays. Thankfully it has been long enough since Felix mania that it just feels great to hear it again. Similarly Metronomy's mix Sebastien Tellier's 'La Ritournelle, shows up in the mix early on.
Fabric 59 is at its best in the closing third. Crazy P's 'Open For Service' is bonkers disco that feels every bit as classic as it aims to, with the most glamorously over the top chorus I've heard in ages. Holy Ghost's mix of 'Goblin City' by Panthers is the show stealer though. It's another track that has been around for an age but it never seems to have quite as much recognition as it deserves. If you haven't heard it you need to and it is here, at eight-minutes long, in pretty much full form. It melds house and disco like champagne and liquid gold, the inevitable guitar solo peak and subsequent break being one of the best things to feature on any Fabric album.
The pace is kept up through to the end. On Oppenheimer Analysis' 'The Devil's Dancers' Jones drops a track that harks back to times when the future sounded like the future rather than the past (just don't tell anyone it's only six years old). Soho808's 'Get Up Disco' is exactly as it says - a gorgeous loose rhythm and sparkling melody - and the stark 'Fear of Numbers' by Footprintz rounds things out.
Fabric 59 is almost in danger of being undermined - Jamie Jones has played it so obviously that it almost veers into parody, yet the final third of the album is so gorgeous I can't help but celebrate it.

Fabric 59 mixed by Jamie Jones is out now, available from Amazon.co.uk on CD and MP3 [affiliate links].

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
How do you get people to do the "right thing"? Much of the business ethics market, educational character building schematics, and even Christian moral instruction focuses on the "do this, don't do that." Whether it has to do with federal regulations and EEOC guidelines, scholastic programs, or religious teaching, most agendas aim at reaching the cerebral and external. Daniel Westberg (DPhil, Oxford University), professor of ethics and moral theology at Nashotah House, Nashotah, Wisconsin, approaches the subject from a more comprehensive position that encompasses the rational, applicable, volitional and emotional in his new 281 page paperback, "Renewing Moral Theology: Christian Ethics as Action, Character and Grace." The book is informed and shaped by Thomistic, Augustinian, Catholic, and Protestant (especially Anglican) ethical theologies to "provide for the general Christian public a blending of the strengths of the Catholic tradition with evangelical emphases and convictions" (10). Westberg seeks to renew Christian confidence in "the area of moral convictions" (Ibid.), and writes for thoughtful Christian readers, parishioners, pastors and seminarians.
"Renewing Moral Theology" unfolds in two parts, the first laying the case for, and shape of, moral theology, especially from an Anglican perspective, that brings together and harmonizes "Catholic and Protestant traditions in a helpful way" (27). The second part of the book walks the reader through the seven classic virtues; prudence (wisdom in action), justice, fortitude, self-control, faith, love and hope. The underlying principle throughout the work is that all of "our genuine actions ( . . . ) have moral import and are moral actions. That is, they are expressions of purpose, desires and attitudes revealed in decisions to do something." Therefore the book is "unabashedly teleological," that is, our actions flow toward, and flow out of, an "ultimate end or purpose ( . . . ) that can be described as the supreme good, sheer joy and complete fulfillment" (31). In other words, don't skip to the second half of the book (the virtues) until you have grasped the first part (purpose, reason and action).
In the beginning portion of "Renewing Moral Theology" Westberg, learning from Augustine, Aquinas and Scripture, maps out an ethical model that pulls together the combined roles of human reasoning and willing, attraction and action in moral direction. The author moves the reader away from the primacy of obligation in moral motivation, to the predominance of attraction to joy and the good; "it is easier to see that the more fundamental picture of being attracted to good things ( . . . ) and through them to the good itself is sounder philosophically, psychologically and biblically. The sense of duty is secondary to overall purpose. ( . . . ) the motivation prompting action is a desire for fulfillment – to achieve a more complete level of being ( . . . ) perfect well-being and happiness" (33). He then adds to motivation the importance of thoughtfulness in morality, for actions "are the result of desire guided by reason" (35). This place of motivation will show up throughout the book as the author will make, in a clearheaded way, claims such as this; "It is hope and motivation that underlie human actions, and our motivation increases with hopefulness, and more hopeful people are motivated to attain more challenging and fruitful goals" (207).
Westberg delves further into the how and why of good engagements and judgments, bringing in the significance of habitus (a developed dispositional trait), conversion, and the Law. He rightly perceives that we "need to realize that the goal of the moral life is to attain that state of harmony between intention, attitude and emotion, so that it will become natural and joyful for us to perform what we know is right and good" (80). That goal of what is right and good is lucidly defined with the words of the Westminster Shorter Catechism, as "to glorify God, and enjoy him forever".
The second segment of "Renewing Moral Theology" uses, and thoughtfully reflects on, the seven classic virtues. Westberg assures the reader that though this looks more like a check list approach, he is simply doing it for the purpose of analyzing and describing (142). To compartmentalize each virtue as a stand-alone character is an impossibility, for in truth "a person cannot have any of the moral virtues without having them all" (143). The author then launches into the four cardinal virtues and the three theological qualities, examining what they are and repeatedly displaying the interdependence of each with the others. Westberg does not necessarily remain within the fence line of staid and sterile definitions for each characteristic, but will pleasantly and biblically surprise readers here and there by stretching and molding each quality so that new contours stand out, where once they may have been overlooked. Probably the most pronounced, for me at least, was his description of love, where he shows that the primary definition of agape moves from (though it is still included) self-sacrificial love "to the concept of friendship or union with God" (235). It is interesting, and surely intentional, that the final three chapters are faith, love and hope – in that order, so that the book ends with hope; the hope that will find its maximum pleasure in the return of our Lord and Savior, when we will finally be all we were meant to be, enjoying God in unrestrained fullness.
"Renewing Moral Theology" holds together the classic Protestant distinctive of justification by grace alone through faith alone, while learning from more traditional Catholic sources, and it seems to me that Westberg has achieved his Anglican via media. This material would be a great asset for fathers and mothers as they think deeply about the morality they desire for their children. Pastors, priests, seminarians, and attentive Christians of all stripes will benefit immensely, especially if this work is read and discussed with others. It is not a simple read written in a popular style, yet with some intentionality, it is definitely manageable and understandable. Westberg has done a masterful job. I highly recommend the book.

Let's face it, February in UK can be tough, especially with all these storms we have been experiencing. I've been speaking to various people recently who have been finding it's been "getting to them". I am a big fan of jumping on a plane to find the sunshine but I understand this is not always possible. So how to survive February in UK if there is no other way to escape?! This is the first February I have been in UK and am actually really enjoying myself, this is because I have planned for it. I have planned to do things I really enjoy, all month, in fact right through to July. I am especially treating myself this month though to the things that lift my spirits and lead me to new experiences, which is what lights me up. The result of doing this means I am enjoying the moment and excited about the future, a recipe for happiness.
It can be easy to get in the mindset of "getting through it", wishing time away, head down until it's all over. That's 28 days of missed out opportunity for fun and exploration though!
Now this doesn't have to mean lots of activity. February is a great month of some restorative time before all the energy of Spring. You have the wisdom inside of you to know what is best for you right now.
What could you plan to make this February special? To make yourself feel good?
I also think it's important to get out in the sunshine when ever it does show it's face. Just to sit in the sun, even when cold, for 15-30 minutes nourishes your soul.
Nature has a way of rebalancing body and mind. If you find yourself in a bit of a down phase, wrap yourself up and go outside, even for a bit. Then notice the shifts you feel from walking in nature. I always find walking along the beach calms my mind, even when the waves are going crazy with the wind!
Fill your body with food with a strong life force. It can be easy to use alcohol and drugs to escape but after the high will come the low and it will be a whole lot worse! Lack of sleep, a drop in blood sugar and toxins all contribute to emotional lows. Take care of your body and your mind will notice the difference too!
Helping others is also a win win situation, when you extend your compassion to outside of yourself the receiver will benefit and so will you. There are many people (and animals) in the world struggling to really survive right now, and not so far afield with the awful situation in Somerset. Take action where you can to help someone in need.
If you need a helping hand you may like to check out this fab challenge - 100 Happy Days. You simply take a photo of something that makes you happy every day and share it on social media with #100happydays or if you'd rather keep it out of the public domain you simply send them your photos.
I am going to start my challenge today, if you'd like to follow me I'll share it via Twitter - LouiseatCreate. ( and if you take on the challenge please let me know how I can follow you too!)
.....and remember nothing stays the same, it will be Spring before we know it :-)
Much love
ps I am running a yoga workshop this weekend if you fancy getting out of the rain and having some me time! x

The Catskills could conceivably get a casino by this time next year.
The Catskills could conceivably get a casino by this time next year.
How is that possible?
Gov. Andrew Cuomo in his recent State of the State address said the four non-Indian casinos allowed in the state would be chosen in the early fall.
How on earth could anyone build a casino and get it running in a few months?
Well, Cuomo's budget proposal this past week said this:
"Through a competitive process, casinos are expected to be open to be open as early as January 2015."
Cuomo didn't explain how that could happen. Neither did Lee Park, the spokesman for the New York State Gaming Commission, which will soon choose the committee that selects four casinos in three regions: the Catskills/Hudson Valley, the Southern Tier and the Capital/Saratoga region. One area could get two, and most observers assume it will be the Catskills.
But this is how a casino could open in January, 2015:
If one of the contenders that was chosen could build in an existing facility, it could be ready to open in a few months.
Of the seven Catskill contenders, the only one that has a building ready for a casino is the Empire Resorts/EPR project, slated for the old Concord resort outside Monticello.
Although it plans to build a new facility, Empire/EPR is now operating the racino at Monticello Raceway, which already has electronic table games and more than 1,000 slot-like video lottery terminals.
A casino could open there — if the project is chosen — and then move to the Concord site when the casino is ready. It could then join two other racinos vying for one of the four casino slots: the Saratoga Casino and Raceway in Saratoga Springs and the Tioga Downs racino near Binghamton.
While Empire/EPR did not want to comment, that scenario makes sense to another major player angling for a Catskills casino — Michael Treanor, who's heading the team that wants to transform the dilapidated Nevele resort outside Ellenville into a casino.
"So far everything the governor said he's going to do is happening," Treanor said. "So I think that among (those awarded) the licenses will be a racino. If they're able to put table games in right away, they can operate a temporary facility."
As for the Nevele?
"We don't have a temporary facility, so I don't see how I can open by January 2015."
Gaming Commission spokesman Park expects that the commission will pick the siting board by the end of this week.
But according to the criteria, it seems unlikely that the siting board will include anyone from an area that might get a casino.
That's because the siting board members must be "free of conflict of interest."
This is the other criteria:
The members must be New York state residents and not be elected officials.
They must also have least 10 years experience in "fiscal matters" and "significant service as an accountant, economist, or financial analyst experienced in finance or economics; in an academic field relating to finance or economics; knowledge of the commercial real estate industry; or executive experience with fiduciary responsibilities in charge of a large organization or foundation."

This Limited Edition fan art collaboration with Jade was made with a combination of traditional and digital tools. Jade first started with a watercolor and ink mixed media painting on paper. She used yellow ink, then incorporated red and orange acrylic paint.
I sketched out one side of the drawing, then scanned it along with the painting.
I drew out the outline of Tywin Lannister and the Hand of the King pendant with Adobe Illustrator CS6.
Photoshop CS6 was used to combine both the drawing and painting. I used various brushes, colors and layers to complete the drawing.

"This is prime coastal real estate in a region experiencing population growth and in need of new affordable housing.
Mr Seeney said Austcorp's master planned, residential community development in Coral Cove had the potential to provide more than 4,300 jobs across the life of the project, and provide up to 670 new housing lots.
"This development will provide a significant boost to the local construction industry over a period of 15 years and make a real difference in an area estimated to need an additional 750 houses per annum in coming years," he said.
"The coastal strip from Burnett Heads to Elliott Heads is proving to be a popular place to live and I expect the Coral Cove development to tap into that interest."

Happy St. Patrick's Day! We're thinking green and wishing for spring over at the test kitchen. Today, we're combining two of my absolute favorite foods-pizza and avocado! Sounds crazy, right?! But if you are a fan of "avocado toast" than you'll know that it's not crazy at all...it's delicious!
So, we are going to use our new favorite toy, the Baking Steel Skinny. This baby has been rocking our kitchen world-it's so versatile and so fun! We're using our 72-hour dough, and stretching it cracker-thin. Pre-heat your skinny on the stovetop to about 400F. That will give you the crispiness you crave when you throw that dough on top. Sear the dough for about 90 seconds per side. That's it-you're ready to top!
As I mentioned, we are topping this flatbread with Fresh Chef's crazy good avocado guacamole! This is a recipe you are going to want to make by the bucketful! The creaminess of the avocado pairs so nicely with the crunch of the crust. Add some jalapeño and fresh lime, boom what? It's a St. Patty's Day lunch you won't soon forget!
Flatbread Recipe
1 pizza dough
3 cups of fresh guacamole
olive oil
1. Place your Skinny Griddle on the stove top and preheat for about 7-10 minutes.
2. Stretch out your pizza dough to about 1/4" thickness. Pour a little bit of olive oil down on your Skinny and then place your dough on top. Cook for 60-90 seconds, flip and repeat. Remove.
3. Distribute the guacamole all over the top, slice and serve.

I cannot talk about FERN and Dr. Laura without tears coming to my eyes
This past year has been an amazing and enlightening experience for our son & our family, all thanks to FERN. Dr. Laura & her team are very dedicated & committed to the children and families they work with. Our son attends FERN, several times a week, to participate in FILL THE GAP Direct Instruction program to learn the basic foundations in numeracy, reading and comprehension. I really appreciate the science behind these programs. I like how new bits of information are introduced in small increments, while the major concepts are repeated over and over again until mastered.Our son was also fortunate to receive FERN Therapy Funds that will allow him to participate in the "Writing Without Tears" program through Making Small Talk. We are so grateful to have found FERN and to be part of the FERN Family.
My families experience with FERN has been amazing! Right from the beginning when I had no idea where to start to help my son, Dr. Laura was there with a warm smile and a plethora of information that would help my child's academic future when it came to Math and Language. FILL THE GAP was a program that helped strengthen the areas in Math and Language that my son missed in his earlier years of learning. It was a learning experience for the whole family, it brought us together and only strengthened us as a whole. Thank you for your help so far and I have and will continue to trust my family with FERN's resources and programs in the future.
FERN is like no other place – it is warm and welcoming, a calm, relaxing escape – not just a place to go to for information on anything you'll need to raise your children, but so much more. The guidance, support and direction offered by Dr. Laura Cesaroni and her team is unbelievable! Their dedication to the kids is immediately apparent and the introduction of the Direct Instruction tutoring program has made all the difference in empowering my daughter academically.We feel very blessed to be a part of this «family », because that is how we are made to feel, and my daughter, who struggles with a number of issues including anxiety absolutely loves her time here! We have taken part in tutoring, social groups, meetings and parties, and have loved every experience! It can be very difficult to find a place to help our children, particulariy ones that fit a budget, but FERN has no contracts or forced commitments which makes it accessible to everyone– I continue to recommend FERN to friends, and all have been really happy!There should be a FERN in every community – this is exactly what every family with children need. Thank you Dr. Laura, Tina & the FERN family, you have changed and enriched our lives beyond words.
I am extremely grateful to have found FERN for my daughter. Before FERN I felt lost, not knowing what I should be doing for my daughter or how I could best support her. Dr. Laura and all the wonderful staff at FERN have been instrumental in showing me the way.Dr. Laura has an amazing ability to recognize each child as a unique individual and how to work with his/her weaknesses to bring each to full potential.My daughter has grown in so many ways since beginning at FERN. Her academics have improved as well as her confidence. She has developed friendships and truly feels part of a family.I can't say enough about the positive benefits of FERN. Dr. Laura and Tina both have such a genuine interest in each child's well-being. They will go above and beyond your expectations to ensure your child has every opportunity to succeed.
We are so grateful to have found FERN and to be part of the FERN Family.
FERN is simply an amazing place, not only for kids, but also for the parents. I felt so much love and genuine care at this place. Every single time when I talked with Laura, I felt hope to keep going. The combination of true Love & extensive Knowledge makes FERN really a unique place! I highly, highly recommend FERN to anyone!!!!!
I'd like to express my gratitude for everything FERN has done for my son. They quickly identified his strengths and needs and promptly had a plan of action. He enjoys working with the student he has been assigned and looks forward to going back each time. The direct instruction used here is well researched and has been very effective with helping turn his needs into his strengths. FERN has also aside from working directly with my son helped direct me to helpful resources/organizations/software programs and even taught me how to use direct instruction with him myself. Dr. Laura also gave me some helpful guidance on advocating for his needs with his school.Thanks again for putting this organization together to help support our children to feel more confident in their abilities and for us as parents to feel more able to teach, advocate and support our children to achieve their very best.
Laura is the best in the field! She is extremely knowledgeable and very professional. She excels in the areas of social thinking and emotional regulation. FERN is a super organization for families to gain the appropriate supports for their children. I am constantly recommending FERN to others."
Our teenage daughter started at FERN this year to build her numeracy, literacy and social skills. Dr. Laura Cesaroni and her team created and implemented a learning plan for her. Day by day, her level of confidence and skills are improving, she is growing into an individual who will have the skills to navigate this world. We are thankful for the warm, caring and supportive environment at FERN.
