Thanks for sharing this story. I especially apprecited this Navy / State Department connection given that I'm long time US Department of State employee and the proud father of a recent US Naval Academy athlete and graduate (http://www.navysports.com/sports/w-swim/mtt/sheerin_cate00.html). My daughter is is now serving as an Ensign aboard the USS Antietam. It's great to see a Navy football player wear the State Department's seal ... for Navy and State share a great deal, including -- in the words of the Navy's promotion -- our combined efforts as a "global force for good" ... http://www.navy.com/navy/about/gffg.html?campaign=search_Reprise/Google/...

Risk behaviors in adolescents
Michigan has approved new guidelines to help health care providers address risk behaviors in adolescents.
Experts say the problem is more prevalent that most people realize.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in nearly three out of every four teens that were seriously injured or killed, high risk behaviors were the primary cause.
In many instances, it's likely that those risk behaviors could have been noticed and addressed with better screening for physical, emotional, and social health risk factors, Michigan Department of Community Health officials say.
Data from the national Rapid Assessment for Adolescent Preventive Services (RAAPS) survey completed by 20,000 youth in school-based health centers across Michigan indicates a significant and rising new set of risks facing teens today that reinforces the need for behavioral health risk screening as part of assessing total health risk factors.
"We have done a great job in Michigan teaching parents, teachers, and youth role models to look for the usual risk factors of drugs, alcohol, pregnancy and STD prevention, but we need to begin paying closer attention to these much more common risks," said James K. Haveman, Director of the Michigan Department of Community Health.
"Preventing the deaths of children and youth due to violence has become a national priority, and here in Michigan, we have taken notice," Haveman said in a statement.
The Michigan Rapid Assessment for Adolescent Preventive Services data shows:
– More than one quarter of teens surveyed 28 percent say they have trouble managing anger and admit to doing things that get them "in trouble" when they are angry.
– Twenty-four percent of teens reported depression, responding that they have feelings of sadness or that they have nothing to look forward to.
– Bullying continues to rise in prevalence, with more than 16 percent of teens surveyed reporting they have been threatened, teased or made to feel afraid.
All of these mental health issues affected a higher percentage of middle and high school youth than the risks more commonly associated with teen populations.
Illicit drug and alcohol use was reported by 13 percent of total respondents, with 19 percent reported by high school-aged youth.
"The real value of a standardized approach to risk assessment with teens is the ability to uncover these hidden dangers that they aren't likely to bring up – and we, as adults, might not even think to ask, and to provide the counseling and resources necessary to make a positive change to prevent future tragedies," said Dr. Jennifer Salerno, Adolescent & School Health Consultant at the Michigan Department of Community Health.
The Michigan Department of Community Health and Michigan Quality Improvement Consortium worked collaboratively with a group of practitioners and adolescent health experts to develop recommendations for assessing risk behaviors which most impact adolescent health.
These recommendations have been compiled into the Adolescent Health Risk Behavior Assessment Clinical Practice Guideline, for health care providers to identify the riskiest behaviors, along with counseling strategies shown to be most effective in helping teens change their behavior.
This guideline recommends that adolescents should have an assessment of health risk behaviors at least once annually, and in any health care setting they present for care using a validated screening tool.
This ensures the questions being asked include all behaviors, especially those that could cause the most harm to teens, and provides consistency among health professionals.
Research has shown that teens are more honest in disclosing risky behaviors when answering a survey, preferably electronic, versus being asked verbally about their behaviors.
Parents, family members, schools, community organizations, and health care providers can play a key role as supportive adults who encourage teens in making better choices, identifying future goals and creating positive connections to the school and community.

Healthy Living
Boost your energy all day long
A 20 minute walk gives you a blast of pep that lasts all day, reveals new research from The University of Vermont. Though exercise provides an immediate lift, scientists were surprised at the long-lasting effect, because mood-boosting endorphins stay elevated for only a couple of hours. Researchers speculate that the jump-start helps buffer the effects of everyday hassles and stress on your outlook throughout the day.
Bonus: By simply walking 15% faster, you could loose some extra weight and increase your fitness levels. Just by increasing your walking speed from 3.5mph to 4.0 mph, the body burns an extra 80 calories an hour. It also increases lung capacity and improves blood pressure twice as much as strolling does.

Sentimental Journey is the first solo album release by former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr in 1970, as the band was splintering apart. Although Starr was the third member of the group to issue solo work (after John Lennon and George Harrison), Sentimental Journey is notable for being the first proper studio album by a member of the band, in light of the experimental, soundtrack or live releases his aforementioned bandmates had already released. Paul McCartney's debut, McCartney would follow three weeks after Sentimental Journey's release.
Beginning in October 1969, Starr engaged the services of Beatles producer George Martin to helm his solo debut. The idea, thematic in approach, was to create an album of standards that would reflect his parents' favorite songs, even asking them and other members of his family to choose the tracks. In addition, he would have one song each arranged by different musicians, ranging from Martin himself, Paul McCartney, Maurice Gibb, Quincy Jones and old friend of The Beatles from Hamburg (and bassist with Manfred Mann) Klaus Voormann, among others. Although begun during the sessions, Starr's own composition, "It Don't Come Easy", would appear as a single in 1971. Recording of the album was completed in March 1970, with Sentimental Journey being rushed out merely two weeks later in order to avoid clashing in the shops with The Beatles' impending final album Let It Be in May and McCartney, whose 17 April release date its maker flatly refused to delay after being asked to by the other members of the band.
Sentimental Journey received fair reviews upon its release, although many critics found the idea of Starr covering standards a bit odd considering his musical background. His fame in The Beatles was all that was required, however, to get it all the way to #7 in the UK - with no single release to promote it - and #22 in the United States. Although the style of the album took many by surprise, Starr's swift follow-up, Beaucoups of Blues, would be just as radical a stylistic shift.
Sentimental Journey was remastered and reissued on CD in 1995.

In entry 166 Serial Experiments:Lain, the date for the review of the original DVD is listed as January 1, 1970. I have doubts about that. The review page does not appear to have a date on it so I did not bother to try to enter a correction.

I believe that's just day zero in certain date counting systems and programming languages. It probably just means that its from long enough ago that they don't know when it was published.

Openings Remain For Beekeeping Classes
A few openings remain for the Audubon Center & Sanctuary's eight-session series on beekeeping.
Responding to an overwhelming interest in learning more about beekeeping, Audubon created the program to begin March 16 and extend through Sept. 7. The classes will be on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon and will cover these subjects:
March 16: Nuts and bolts of Beekeeping, with students learning the equipment needed;
April 6: Bee Yards, which will teach finding the best locations for a hive;
April 20: Getting New Bees, featuring different techniques to put bees into a hive, with hands-on experience;
April 27: Monitoring the Hive;
May 18: Supers and Splits, demonstrating techniques for adding supers into the hive, how to split a hive and how to capture a swarm;
June 15: Bee Diseases;
Aug. 3: Overwinter Your Hive; and
Sept. 7: Harvesting Honey, which will also discuss marketing and selling honey.
The classes will be led by a variety of beekeepers, the main three being Laura and Dennis Lamonica and Walt Dahlgren. They bring decades of beekeeping experience and will lead novice beekeepers through their first year. Beekeepers need to order their own bees and provide their own equipment. A list of required equipment and sources will be mailed to participants. All beekeepers will be required to wear veils, gloves and jackets during classes.
For more information, visit jamestownaudubon.org. The cost is $200 or $150 for Friends of the Nature Center. Class size is limited to 20 and reservations with payment are required by Monday. To make reservations, call 569-2345 or email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Audubon education programs are made possible in part through funding from the Johnson Foundation, the Carnahan Jackson Foundation, the Hultquist Foundation and the Jessie Smith Darrah Fund. The Toward Sustainability Foundation is also helping pay for the workshops, while Cornell Cooperative Extension is partnering with Audubon to administer the grant.

Sports news from the Pollock, SD area.
Posted 2/18/13 (Mon)
Mobridge-Pollock picked up an easy win Tuesday night, Feb. 12, in Fort Pierre as they defeated the Stanley County Buffaloes, 76-44.
The Tigers had everything working in first quarter action as they scored from everywhere and had some success with their defensive pressure. M-P jumped out to a 14-1 lead during the first four minutes of the contest. The Buffs finally got a bucket five minutes in. After a trey by M-P, Stanley County got another bucket, but that was it for them from the field. They did get two from the charity stripe late. M-P got three more buckets and a trey just before the buzzer to lead 26-7 at the break.
The Buffs outscored the Tigers in action during the first half of the second quarter. M-P only got two buckets and a free shot, while the Buffs got a bucket, a trey and two free shots to trail, 31-14. After an old fashioned three by M-P, the Buffs scored once from the field and twice from the charity stripe. It took a couple minutes before the Tigers scored again from the field, and they followed it up with a free shot. In the final minute, the only scoring was a trey at the buzzer by the Tigers. They led, 40-18.
The Buffs opened the second half with two buckets but M-P quickly came back with two from the line, one from the field and a trey to spread their lead to 25. Over the next two minutes of play, the Buffs got a free shot and two buckets and the Tigers got two from the line and two from the field to move the mid quarter score to 53-27. Scoring was even at two buckets each in the final four minutes of the quarter, but M-P got a couple buckets late off of turnovers. The Buffs, however, got the last score of the quarter, nailing a trey to leave themselves down, 61-34.
The Tigers opened the final quarter with two buckets and the Buffs didn't score for almost three minutes and then they got two from the line. The Tigers expanded their lead in the final four minutes as they scored 11 while giving up eight, pushing their winning margin to 32, 76-44.

Police back .05% blood alcohol content proposal
By ERIC TICHY
Special to the OBSERVER
A proposed reduction in the allowable blood alcohol concentration level for drivers is receiving widespread support in Chautauqua County.
Of law enforcement officials interviewed this past week, all said they supported recommendations by the National Transportation Safety Board to have states explore reducing BAC levels from .08 percent to .05.
"People should not drink and drive," Chautauqua County Sheriff Joe Gerace said. "There are so many other things people can be doing that doesn't involve having drinks then getting behind the wheel."
Gerace noted alcohol affects everyone in different ways. Some can have several drinks and feel in control, he said, while others may have one drink and feel impaired.
"Someone may feel hammered when they are blowing a .04," the sheriff said.
The maximum BAC level under New York state law is .08 percent. A driver with a BAC of .05 currently could be charged with driving with ability impaired.
Area law enforcement officials were asked to comment on the proposed change to blood alcohol levels.
"The Lakewood-Busti Police Department has always taken a proactive approach toward those who choose to drive while intoxicated," said Sgt. Paul Gustafson. "Lowering the legal limit from .08 percent to .05 percent will make our roads safer, and at the same time will present us with new challenges."
Sheriff's Deputy Jeff Hover said, "I really believe that lowering the BAC to .08 made a significant impact on the amount of drunk drivers on today's roads, thus lowering the amount of fatal accidents.
"In my opinion, by lowering the BAC to .05 will once again significantly reduce the amount of drunk drivers on area highways."
Sgt. Gary Segrue, station commander for the Jamestown State Police barracks said he would support any measure enacted by the state legislature that would create safer roads.
According to the NTSB, efforts taken within the last two decades to address impaired driving include: A zero-tolerance approach for drivers under 21; a BAC of .04 percent and random drug and alcohol testing for commercial drivers; a national standardized field sobriety test training program; and increased penalties for repeat offenders, among other initiatives.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced recently that more than 3,100 New York state residents with previous driving while intoxicated convictions were denied access to a driver's license. The multi-pronged initiative limits drivers with a history of repeat alcohol- or drug-related arrests of the road.
"We have seen too many times the heartbreak and tragedy that results when a driver under the influence of alcohol or drugs gets behind the wheel," Cuomo said. "Those who have continually shown a complete lack of regard for the safety of other drivers have no place on New York's roadways.
"With more than 3,100 potentially dangerous motorists kept off the road since September, it is clear these new regulations have already been a tremendous success at protecting law-abiding New York drivers, passengers, and pedestrians."
Cuomo said the state Department of Motor Vehicles since September has received 3,891 applications for relicensing from drivers with more than two alcohol or drug offenses on their record.
Of those applications, 3,164 were denied for an additional five years; of those denied, 1,658 were permanently denied because they either had five or more convictions or three to four convictions within the last 25 years plus at least one serious driving offense.
Cuomo said almost 700 drivers with previous alcohol or drug convictions were relicensed, but required to use an ignition interlock.

This is why I thrift most of my clothes.
When choosing plant-based fabrics, consider also the human abuses that take place in terms of poor working conditions and less than fair wages. Hemp and bamboo are more sustainable than cotton.
I have been a vegan for 20 years this year. I work as hard at my vegan clothing as I do my food. One thing that isn't adequately discussed when switching to non-animal clothing is the huge amount of resources that is used in the dying of cotton, to say nothing of the petroleum used to create nylon and poly. I read somewhere recently the amount of clean water that is used and dumped away to make one pair of denim pants is over 100 gallons. http://greengirlsglobal.com reports that it takes 750 liters of clean water just to stone wash one pair of jeans. And research the petrochems and coal used to create polyfibers. As we move to a cruelty-free wardrobe, we must think of other aspects of our orb, as well. My best suggestion is to become an expert thrift-shopper. The amount of barely-used clothing taken by middle-class americans to goodwill every year is appalling, but a great blessing to us vegans. Wearing them means one less pair of levis run through the dying vats. Keep up the fight!
I visited a sheep farm in New Zealand and it seemed very humane….it was also privately owned, so I'm sure that made a difference. But I guess that's always the image I had in my mind when I thought of wool. I can imagine that the US is not so kind, which is very unfortunate.
I am quite shocked to learn about this. In Norway where I live, wool is a huge part of our culture. Ideally a mother dresses her newborn in wool from inside out throughout the winter. Sadly, our Norwegian sheep does not have a desirable wool-quality, as it is considered to be stiff and itchy. I think most of the Norwegians use merino wool now. I thought that a modern country as Australia had the same laws for animal welfare as Norway, or at least something quite similar. I cannot imagine that all wool-farms in Australia (and the rest of the world) abuse their animals? Instead of discarding wool completely (which is quite unrealistic), there must be another way? Like some kind of "The PETA-approved farm-mark" or something in the like of that?
we can save all of the animals one step, one day, one year, and one decade at a time if we stick together and spread the word: STOP ANIMAL CRUELITY!!
Wonderful explanation of facts aaivlalbe here.
As an Australian -albeit living in Portugal- I'm ashamed at my country's continued barbaric practice of live animal export to the Middle East. I belong to an action group called People Against Cruelty in Animal Transport (PACAT) and we've been campaigning for years to end this trade, but the Aust. govt. still puts dollars before animal welfare and world condemnation…and it's a supposed "civilised" country!
Kyle: In nature, there is no need for sheep to be sheared – without human interference, sheep grow just enough wool to protect themselves from temperature extremes. Sheep exploited for their wool have been bred to produce more wool than is natural. The best way to help animals exploited for clothing is to leave their body parts out of your closet.
Terri: Organic plant-based fabrics are great animal and earth-friendly options. Raising animals for food and clothing contributes significantly to pollution, climate change, and natural-resource depletion. Waste from animals on sheep and other farms can seep into the groundwater, and run-off from factory farms often ends up in local rivers and lakes. The most effective way to help the environment and animals, is to choose animal-free foods and clothing.
so shameful and painful.
This morning I read about mulesing for the first time in the message I received from PETA. I can't beleive that such a heartless action can be routinely perpetrated against lambs. Most of my wardrobe consists of cotton garments already. In the future, I will be sure to exclude wool from my clothing purchases.
Best wishes,
Carol L. Wright
@Kallum – your whole comment comes from the mentality that the sheep are your property to do with as you please. You feel like you should get a pat on the back because you sacrifice some profit for the well-being of your property.
I raise humans in my backyard to "produce" hair and meat. Don't worry though, I refill their water bowls and give them enough to eat every day even though it costs me more money 😉
Wool itself is not bad, right? Because shaving wool off of sheep actually helps them, right? And then we can either use or throw away the wool that was shaved off, right?
So, it is not the wool or the shaving of the sheep that is bad – it is the method that it is done, right?
I'm try to get clarity on the real issue here…
We've reached almost perfection in technology but we still haven't improved our behavior as civilized and compassionate human beings towards others and to animals.We are not only experiencing a huge financial crisis but the largest ethical crisis all over the world because some people are so greedy that in order to earn more and more money they abuse people and animals.
it always amazes me that some people who are concerned about animal rights seem not to care about the earth. petroleum based fabrics are not a substitute! you need to look into organic cotton, hemp, bamboo, or linen. i believe in animal rights. i became a vegetarian in 1981 and then later a vegan. i choose not to eat fake meat because i gave up meat for a moral reason. i do not need to replace it a fake version. i gave it up. but animal rights are not my life there are equally important needs out there. have you noticed that winter hasn't hardly come to most of us this year. ecology is very important. polyester does not belong on careing people. i knit and i use wool. i buy organic wool from america that is humanely sheared. i do not use unrenewable sources when you can buy other products that are renewable.
These practices have to end TODAY it is beyond and above horrible and if people really understood what was going on they would STOP buying wool.
I never have liked wool because it is to itchy and to me it really doesn't keep you that warm as heavy cotton at least it breaths and doesn't itch and no animals are hurt by growing cotton and that is so so important.
@Kallum Blake: By refusing to phase out mulesing even though experts estimate that they could do so in less than two years, the Australian wool industry has demonstrated that it puts profit above animal welfare. In addition to mulesing, sheep sheared for wool suffer from rough handling and severe injuries inflicted by hurried workers who are often paid by the sheep, not by the hour. After their wool production wanes, sheep are sent to a horrific death in a slaughterhouse, where many have their throats slit while they are still conscious and able to fell pain.

@Bradley: Happy to hear that you choose vegan foods! Australia, where cruel mulesing is widely practiced, is the world's largest producer of merino wool. Other significant wool producing countries include China, New Zealand, and Argentina, where sheep are subjected to rough shearing in which they often suffer cuts and even complete amputations to some of their most sensitive areas, including their udders, scrotums, and penises. Please visit our compassionate shopping guide [http://www.peta.org/living/fashion/cruelty-free-Clothing-guide.aspx] to learn more about the hottest cruelty-free fashions.
@River Fischer: Yes, flystrike is truly horrific, but mulesing is not the answer. The mutilated sheep often get flystrike in their maimed flesh before it heals. More humane and effective methods exist, and many farmers have had great success in using them to phase out mulesing. The most effective way to prevent flystrike is to breed sheep who have less wrinkly skin and are therefore resistant to it. Experts estimate that the Australian wool industry could transition to the less wrinkly sheep breed within just two years if an aggressive breeding program were implemented immediately.
@Pruthvi: We hope you will join us in calling on the Australian government to require an end to cruel mulesing [https://secure.peta.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=3082]. Unfortunately, whenever animals are exploited for profit, the producers' bottom-line comes before their well-being. Once their wool production wanes, sheep used for wool are sent to a terrifying and painful death in a slaughterhouse, long before they would live out their natural life-span. As more and more people choose cruelty-free fabrics [http://www.peta.org/living/fashion/cruelty-free-Clothing-guide.aspx], the wool industry will fade out.
they should feel the pain that those poor sheep feel
As a sheep producer for both wool and meat. I find the above coments offensive, especially the comment that profit is put before the welfare of the animal. We spent thousands of dollars every year on improving animal welfare and some years this means that we make no profit from them. I think you will find that 99.9% of people that have sheep are animal lovers because the people that do not like animals don't have them they are 100% cropping
this is not a very balanced argument. it is full of bias and propoganda. I am vegan and quite happily endorse wool. I am fairly sure China has more sheep (and more merino sheep to be specific) than australia anyway.
I agree that mulesing is cruel and painful, but has anyone looked into flystrike? I looked into it and it's horrible. Flies lay their eggs in warm, wet, (and often dirty) areas of the sheep, such as the breech (the rump), where the sheep can't clean. I won't get into the details, but the infection is usually fatal to the animal if left untreated.
if we wil stop useing wool than sheep wil be of no use than they wil suffer more than nw so its btr to change the way to get wool without cruelty
I have no problem with wool things if the sheep are well cared for and not injured in the process. But the large corporations described are awful!
i cant believe how cruel people can be with getting wool and fur, who said we are so much better then animals? i would pay extra money for a lot of things to ensure that the animals being eaten for food, or for wool were treated with care and were killed in a very human way, its awful how our world turned into this.
stop this nonsense!
Those poor things,i don't understand people, how they can hurt any animal
really sorry for those animals. used to be a less cruel once upon a time when we were not massive and so comercialized. God help us all.
first they showed a slauter house re; the cruel treatment of cows.I believe hpw horrible people are.Now it's almost the same for sheep, my heart goes out to the animals who are abused.I have a hard time thinking that humans can be so bad.Something must be done,these animals are living things. They cry when it hurts,they suffer this terrible treatment.I would like to see the same thing happen to the people who does this to them
I am in absolute disgust now that I know whats really involved in the manufacturing of wool. I can't believe how inhumane people are, if we did that to cats & dogs in America it's considered animal abuse so why's it ok to do this to sheep & other animals???
I have read about mulesing before. It is barbaric and cruel.No animal should suffer so much pain for the sake of humans. Shame on everyone involved.
Dear Sirs,
Does the shearing have to be done so carelessly as well as mulesing?
Why on earth people injur animals for the sake of money?? You can make lots of money without this atrocity!!!
Think about it, please!
I think sheeps are also living beings . They too feel the pain . We buy a bandage for a minor cut even to supress pain then how can a man go beyond the limits of cruellity 🙁 Its a very shameful act in my openion !
if they stop shearing the sheep they kill them, so for the poor sheep its a no win situation 🙁

Mrs. Flinger: A work in progress
UPDATE TO Mrs. Flinger October 16, 2015
Because the Universe has a wicked sense of humor, after this delcaration, my blog threw up all over my last upgrade.
So I'm starting over using Craft. Turning 40 and kid entering Jr High next year, sometimes it's just time for a change. These archives will still exist in the way the last child goes off to college and their room is the same for 20 years, but it's just time to move forward.
Speaking his language Mar 03, 2008
#Life#Parenting Siblings#Pregnancy#got pee sticks?#The Flinger Family
After knowing Mr. Flinger for nearly twenty years now, seven years of those married, six of those as best friends, and 5 years of dating, you'd think I kinda know the guy a bit. You'd think that. And you'd be right. Mostly.
For some reason I've been approaching this whole birth control thing completely wrong. I've been approaching it like a women, with logic and emotion. *We* don't want to have children, so *we* need to find a solution that works for *us*. *We* need to get a cost effective/low impact solution. *We* don't need the Mommy (hi) to be an emotional wreck from the hormones of Birth Control Pills (also? I can not be counted on to take them thus making their reliability around 2%) or the IUD*. *We* don't like condoms. *We* don't want an abortion. *We* don't want to do this again. We're happy. With two. A boy and a girl. Remember?
So why is it that The Other Solution isn't discussed? Because he doesn't want to discuss it. Because "he's not ready for that" and "not man enough" and "someblatheringIcan'tunderstand".
Then it hit me. A chart. I needed a chart.
Lo, I created a chart.
Remember back when we purchased our garbage can? Remember how
he graphed my hormones during my miscarriage? Did you know he once asked me to rate my daily activities on a scale of one to ten before deciding to go back to Graduate School? You know, to quantify the decision?
Graphs. Charts. Engineer. :: Slaps Forehead ::
:: owie ::
So I decided to quantify the decision. And this is what I came up with.
Note in Figure A we have a cost ration per various solutions. Note that in Figure B, all birth control costs pail in comparison to the cost of raising a child as noted on Baby Center.
Here in Figure C we have the joy ratio of various birth control methods:
And here is the link I'm sending via IM to my husband as we speak.
Did I mention the pocket knife? You get a pocket knife. Snip. Snip.
Maybe now I've talked his language, he will talk mine. BowChickaBowWow.
*A note about The IUD. I thought about this route. I thought long and hard. I thought I'd go this route but in order to do so, my doctor wants me to call The First Day Of My Cycle, which as you know, is completely unpredictable and irratic (because the ENTIRE internet knows this about me) and thus have been trying to get in for three months now. Three. Long. Sexless. Months.
**I didn't even take in the anual cost of therapy the third child will bring, the cases of wine consuned before child reaches four, or the pregnancy tests I will continue to pee on until the snip is complete.
**For your further reading enjoyment.

#Parenting Siblings#Baby O#got pee sticks?
The BoyChild will not let me set him down. What-so-ever. At all. Nada. Zilch. No-go. W.T.F. This means I have about thirty-two minutes at the end of the day when Mr. Flinger gets here to do bills, clean, make dinner, eat dinner, pee, shower, and workout. Oh! And type! And write thank you cards! And give myself a pedicure because OY. Did I mention Oy? OY.
This too shall pass. I know I know. And if I was really obnoxious and deeply troubling I might say something totally gross like, "I just enjoy this time because one day he'll be fighting me off and I'll miss the days of carrying him around in the sling every goddamn minute of the day."
In other news, I took a pregnancy test. YES! That's right! Internet, I made it an entire ELEVEN WEEKS before peeing on another pregnancy stick. It's an addiction. Did I tell you I had this almost uncontrollable urge to pee on one during the third trimester? You know, AS THE BABY IS MOVING? There really should be a support group.
It was negative. Duh.
Doesn't explain the hormones and boobs.
Or other things.
Tonight after a bath and a story (O loves Harry Potter but we're only on page 132 so don't tell us who wins) I laid him down and did a rain dance to the gods of "my child has some insane sensor on him that detects a surface other than mom" and it worked. He was asleep. Or is. Or, wait…
What's that?
We didn't turn on the monitor.
Ignorance is bliss.
Celebrate* Sep 18, 2006
Just got the call: HCG is less than five. We can :: ahem :: resume "normal activity" and start trying whenever we feel comfortable.
I'm drinkin' some wine tonight, baby! Bring on the BABY MAKING.
*upon hearing this news Mr. Flinger says, "Activity as normal? Can't we do better than once a month? Come on, Man, throw me a bone." He forgot about the the experiment already? Jeesh.
Because this is what I'd say if I just met you on the street Aug 17, 2006
#Pregnancy#got pee sticks?#TTC
Here is the kind of information you would get from me if you saw me on the street today.
"Yea. I'm almost five weeks pregnant. Yea. So it's not going well. Yasee, I peed on another stick today. And, well, it's not darker and I KNOW they say it doesn't matter but it has to, right? Doesn't it make sense if your HGC went up it would get darker? Yea. I thought so. So anyway, I had another blood work lab today because the nurse isn't pleased with my score of 47 on 17 days past ovulation. Oh, we know when I ovulated because I took this ovulation strip. Oh, it's so neat, it'll tell you when your egg is about 48 hours from being released. Crazy, hu? Anyway, so I had to go back in and now they're saying things like "miscarriage" and "low HCG" and "if you make it to 2000, we'll do an ultrasound." So now I'm totally freaking out because, yaknow, I've told people and people read and came, and commented. Cool people. People I'd want to be pregnant at the same time with. Or share stories of my vajaja with or about discharge and my big boobs and puking. I mean, they're all counting on me to stark puking. Yaknow? And we have a name for him.. yes it's a him.. and I've already cried several times today over the low HCG levels and well, my boobs don't hurt nearly enough…"
And that's about the time my inner sensor FINALLY kicks in and starts beeping loudly at me to SHUTTHEFUCKUPALREADY. Did I mention I have a malfunctioning inner sensor? Seuss and I were talking about this tonight. That little red light that should blink when you're on the phone with the financial consultant and instead you blurt out the above paragraph, in its entirety, and she pauses, says, "well, perhaps we can fiddle with the numbers a bit" and you lock your rate just a tad lower. Or when you're discussing the contract with the seller and you begin said paragraph, again, momments after kicking yourself from the first phone call and yet, YOU DO NOT STOP, you actually say out loud, "I can't believe I'm telling you this.." followed by an awkward pause…. ".... ....... ........ .... Yes, well, anyway…."
And that, ladies and 2 gents, is why I didn't post today. Because I told the real-estate gal, the financial consultant, the seller of the condo, two nurses, the lab lady, some random stranger in the library, Erin and all our family my entire pregnancy history, all four weeks in its entirety, and I can't bear to repeat it again.
Or else I might cry.
Because I can convince a nun she's pregnant but not that she's a lesbian May 23, 2006
Two weeks late. Grumpy but not bitchy. Weepy but not pissy. Tired. Sore boobs. Pukey.
Wow. This. Is. Really. Getting. Old.
Maybe it's all those women I sleep with. Yathink?*
Oooh, Internet, before you run around spreading rumors, lemme just say that I've stayed up late to see my hunk-o-hunk-a-burning-manhood on the Country Music Awards (which I despise) just because someone said he was on. And in the five
sentences he was on, I realize there is no way I could ever leave men. I love them. Especially that one. .. I mean.. my husband. Raaauuurrr.
Times you should NOT have to consult your blog May 08, 2006
"Babe, my uterus hurts."
"When is your period due?"
"I dunno. I'll have to check my archives."
You mean I can get a poke any time I wanna? Dec 21, 2005
#Social Clutz Loveable Spaz#got pee sticks?
No, it's not the latest porn movie hitting the Internet, it's what my Doc said after I admitted to peeing away hundreds of dollars in pregnancy sticks. After last week's episode, she demanded I take a blood pregnancy test because, let's face it, I was whacked and a week late. Also, regardless of how many fake positive or real negative tests I take, I still believe I'm pregnant. Hell, I can be bleeding like a stuck pig and think I'm pregnant. Trust me. Or don't. Read it for yourself.
Anyway, so she calls with the results telling me, upon my answering the phone, "The answer is no." [silence] Me, "Hmm. MmmK." She asks if this is sad news. I think about it. "No," I say hesitating, "no, not really. I mean we're not TRYING. Of course, we're not NOT trying, either, so…." She tells me the details of how pregnancy tests work, very medically and not at all like the images of dancing naked in the woods at night or singing to venus or anything that I've done recently to make a test positive (you know, everything short of actually HAVING sex to get pregnant). She says, of course, I can still get pregnant next month, if I want to, and if I ever believe I'm pregnant for more than a few days to call her and she'll order a blood pregnancy test.
She has no idea who she's talking to. Poor lady.
More talk about how my nipples can cut glass and I'm about to hurl at the sight of food Dec 07, 2005
I swear to you, I can convince a nun she's pregnant. No, Really. I could. I think I have a problem. There should be a name for this. "reallybadguessingatpregnancysymptoms-drom" or "howthehellcouldIpossiblybebutIthinkitanyway-drom" or "mynippleshurtlet'sassumeit'sababy-drom" 'cause y'all. Every. Effing. Month.
One of these days the girl-who-cried-pregnant will actually GET pregnant and there will be no people to give a rat's ass. "Yea. Right" they'll say. "Uhhu.. SUUUURRREEEE." And "Are you SUUREEE you didn't just pee on a used stick?"
Thus is born, a new category, "times I think I'm pregnant but I'm not." And so it shall be…
*note* holy crap! I didn't realize just how often I write about how I think I'm pregnant. Ok. It's official. I don't think I am anymore. It's just a little sad when you see that many posts all in one place. ::Slinking away into corner now holding a tampon and waiting for AF::
OH MAH GAH.. chronicles from the puke files Nov 17, 2005
Y'all… I am not just feeling pukey.. I am hunched over the sink dry heaving. Why? Seriously? Here's the theory.
More of my phantom pregnancy symptoms Jul 28, 2005
I'm starving. I'm so hungry, y'all. I'm hungry enough that page 83 of Harry Potter had me drooling. Oh, it's not the main point of the chapter. Unless, of course, the fact that Harry Potter eats onion soup and bread has some large meaning to the whole wizarding world. I'm sure it doesn't. But it has a whole hell of a lof of meaning to my world. Mainly, my belly.

Public meetings set on Remsen-Lake Placid rail plan
The state departments of Environmental Conservation and Transportation announced Tuesday they will hold four public meetings in September about the management of the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor, a 119-mile rail line in the Adirondacks.
Information and comments gathered from the public and stakeholder groups will help the commissioners of the two state agencies determine whether to amend the Remsen-Lake Placid Corridor Unit Management Plan. The plan, adopted by the departments in March 1996, assesses the natural and physical resources along the 100-foot-wide corridor, identifies opportunities for public use, and guides how the corridor is used and managed.
The public meetings are scheduled for the following dates and locations:
Monday, Sept. 9, 6 to 9 p.m., Town of Webb Park Avenue Office Building, 183 Park Ave., Old Forge
Tuesday, Sept. 10, 1 to 4 p.m., DEC Region 5 headquarters, 1115 State Route 86, Ray Brook
Monday, Sept. 16, 1 to 4 p.m., State Office Building, 207 Genesee St., Utica
Tuesday, Sept. 17, 6 to 9 p.m., The Wild Center, 45 Museum Drive, Tupper Lake.
Each session will include a presentation by the state agencies and informational stations at which the public can give state agency staff their comments and ideas verbally or in writing.
All of the meeting facilities are wheelchair accessible. Requests for directions or specific accommodations for any of the meetings may be directed to 518-897-1200 or 315-793-2327.
Written comments also may be submitted by Sept. 25 to firstname.lastname@example.com, faxed to 518-457-3183 or mailed to Raymond F. Hessinger, Director, Freight and Passenger Rail Bureau, New York State Department of Transportation, 50 Wolf Road, POD 54, Albany, NY 12232.
The state acquired the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor in 1975 from the bankrupt Penn Central Railroad. The rail line was constructed in 1892 and was operated by New York Central Railroad and, later, Penn Central Railroad until freight service ended in 1972. New York Central ended passenger service there in the mid 1960s.
The Department of Transportation manages the line in keeping with a Travel Corridor Unit Management Plan developed in conjunction with the Department of Environmental Conservation. Approximately 100 miles of the corridor is located within the Adirondack Park. An additional 19 miles is located outside of the Park in the Tug Hill region.
Since the 1996 plan, the Adirondack Scenic Railroad, owned by the Adirondack Rail Preservation Society, has started using the state railroad to run tourist trains in summer and fall between Utica and Old Forge and between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake. Its goal is to run trains along the entire corridor.
In the winter, the rail corridor is reserved for snowmobiles.
A growing number of people say the state should remove the tracks and resurface the corridor as a trail for bike and foot traffic and easier snowmobile use. A group called Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates formed in recent years to push this idea, and many of the municipalities the railroad passes through have endorsed it. Others passed resolutions urging the state to at least revise the corridor's management plan. The state agreed to do that in June.

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee will headline Mississippi College's spring scholarship banquet on March 28, 2011.
Huckabee, who hosts a popular talk show on the Fox News Channel, served as governor of Arkansas from 1996-2007 and finished second behind Senator John McCain in his quest for the Republican Party's presidential nomination in 2008. Viewers of his TV show, Huckabee, enjoy watching the former governor interview newsmakers and sometimes play guitar with musicians and bands appearing on the program. Huckabee is also heard daily on the Huckabee Report, his nationally syndicated radio show.
A former Baptist pastor and denominational leader, Huckabee was the youngest president in the history of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention. In demand as a speaker nationwide, Huckabee is the author of seven books, including his most recent, A Simple Christmas.
"We consider Gov. Huckabee, who attended Baptist colleges at the undergraduate and graduate level and served as president of the Arkansas Baptist Convention, to be fully supportive of institutions like ours," MC President Lee Royce said. "We look forward to his remarks about America's political scene and other timely topics."
The annual spring scholarship banquet is a vital component of the $80 million "Growing the Vision" campaign. Gov. Huckabee is the latest in a strong lineup of banquet speakers. Last year's banquet featuring businessman Steve Forbes raised a record $312,500 for scholarships at MC.
Scholarship Banquet Sponsorship Opportunities
Mississippi College offers several sponsorship opportunities through which you can meet former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and help support the "Growing the Vision" campaign. Sponsorships begin at $1,000. Individual tickets to the scholarship banquet are $150. For more information, please contact Amy Rowan at 601.925.3257 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Should have caught this one while it was in limited release.
Amazing little story that in some regards reminded me of "Sling Blade" in its storytelling and the area of the country addressed by it.
Ree, a dirt poor 17 year old girl in the Missouri Ozarks takes care of her 12 year old brother and 6 year old sister. Her mom is there, but she's a near vegetable due to god-knows-what kind of tragedy. Dad, a crank cooker, is missing a few days before his trial, so the sheriff inform Ree that if he doesn't turn up, the county will take their house and land.
Ree sets out to find him, knowing she'll have to deal with relatives who don't want him to be found. These Arkansas hilljacks make the inbreds in Deliverance look warm and fuzzy.
Great story, and some incredible acting, mostly from the Jennifer Lawrence, the then-19 year old playing Ree.
Disturbing as hell in many places, but not a total downer like "The Road" (even if the landscape there was almost as bleak). Good mystery as well, but mostly just an amazing character at the center of it all, peformed by an actress who has one hell of a future.

Topic: HOWTO: Tutorial and Example App for Rails 3 + Mongoid + Devise
I've put together an example application that demonstrates Mongoid and Devise working together on Rails 3.
Mongoid is for data storage (alternative to SQL databases). Devise is for authentication (alternative to RESTful authentication or Authlogic).
It's on GitHub:
rails3-mongoid-devise example app
There's a step-by-step tutorial on the wiki that shows how to build it.
There's also an application template generator so anyone can use the example as a beginning point for a new Rails app.
Right now (24 June 2010) it requires:
* ruby (version 1.8.7 or 1.9.2)
* rails (version 3.0.0.beta4)
* mongoid (version 2.0.0.beta7)
* bson_ext (version 1.0.1)
* devise (version 1.1.rc2)
There are options to use Haml and Heroku as well.

Topic: Adding rails.js ajax callbacks to dynamically added elements rails3.1
I have an ajax request that updates a table. Inside the table I have link_to remote actions. The problem I'm having is if I update the table via the ajax request all of the link_to remotes in the table no longer work. I'm guessing this is because these are now new elements and haven't been binded to the rails ajax callbacks like they would on page load. How would I re-add these callbacks on the link_to remotes inside the table once the table is regenerated?

Google Android operating system was only launched in the second half of 2008, however, already in Q1 2010 the OS became the second most popular in the U.S., behind RIM's Blackberry and ahead of Apple iPhone operating system, according to NPD Group.
Android Passes Apple iPhone
The Android operating system continued to shake up the U.S. mobile phone market in the first quarter of 2010, moving past Apple to take the number-two position among smartphone operating systems. NPD's wireless market research reveals that based on unit sales to consumers last quarter the Android operating system moved into second position at 28% behind RIM's OS (36%) and ahead of Apple's OS (21%). The popularity of Android clearly indicates that more and more consumers are adopting smartphones and fewer of them want to acquire Apple iPhone.
Apple, however, disagrees that Google Android-based phones could leave the iPhone gadget that some call "iconic" behind. In fact, Apple seems to be correct: it will take a long time before Google Android will be able to leave iPhone behind on the worldwide basis simply because Android-based phones are rarely sold outside the U.S.
"This is a very limited report on 150 thousand U.S. consumers responding to an online survey and does not account for the more than 85 million iPhone and iPod touch customers worldwide. We had a record quarter with iPhone sales growing by 131% and with our new iPhone OS 4.0 software coming this summer, we see no signs of the competition catching up any time soon," said Apple spokeswoman Natalie Harrison.
Interestingly, Ms. Harrison also mentioned iPod touch in addition to iPhone, but the former is not a smartphone, but a personal digital media player.
Sales of Smartphones Growing
"As in the past, carrier distribution and promotion have played a crucial role in determining smartphone market share/ In order to compete with the iPhone, Verizon Wireless has expanded its buy-one-get-one offer beyond RIM devices to now include all of their smartphones," said Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis for NPD.
Strong sales of the Motorola Droid, Droid Eris, and Blackberry Curve via these promotions helped keep Verizon Wireless's smartphone sales on par with AT&T in Q1. According to NPD's Mobile Phone Track, smartphone sales at AT&T comprised nearly a third of the entire smartphone market (32%), followed by Verizon Wireless (30%), T-Mobile (17%) and Sprint (15%).
"Recent previews of BlackBerry 6, the recently announced acquisition of Palm by HP, and the pending release of Windows Phone 7 demonstrates the industry's willingness to make investments to address consumer demand for smartphones and other mobile devices. Carriers continue to offer attractive pricing for devices, but will need to present other data-plan options to attract more customers in the future," added Mr. Rubin.
The continued popularity of messaging phones and smartphones resulted in slightly higher prices for all mobile phones, despite an overall drop in the number of mobile phones purchased in the first quarter. The average selling price for all mobile phones in Q1 reached $88, which is a 5% increase from Q1 2009. Smartphone unit prices, by comparison, averaged $151 in Q1 2010, which is a 3% decrease over the previous year.
The NPD Group compiles and analyzes mobile device sales data based on more than 150 thousand completed online consumer research surveys each month. Surveys are based on a nationally balanced and demographically-representative sample, and results are projected to represent the entire population of U.S. consumers. Sales figures do not include corporate/enterprise mobile phone sales.

quote Noster37This thread is very very old but anyway, if you reset the pokewalker settings your pokémon will return the way it was when you sent it (in fact, pokémon never truly leave your game, they just get hidden and adjusted when you take them back off the pokéwalker). So if you get a new pokéwalker it'll be as if you never sent him at all. It's a safety-option which is quite good to have.does doing this delete the pokemon or does it send it back to the game?
quote MangoMagicaYes there is. It's the same as when you first got it. I'm pretty sure. I just lost mine today, so I know how you feel. But your pokemon is more important. So save it. You can reset the new pokewalker you get. And I think you can order a pokewalker from Nintendo.Okay, so on Tuesday, near the end of a school day i realized my pokewalker had fallen out of my purse i did have a pokemon on it so now i am stuck because even if i can possibly get a hold of a new pokewalker, the game is still requiring me to return this pokemon to the ds. There is no way for me to find this walker so is there any way for me to "reset" this option in case i get lucky and get a new pokewalker? (there are no pokewalkers separate on eBay TT~TT)

Crimson King: BRAWG. I'M A BEAST! *The end* *Hyundai commercial* Stephen, look out for your work. You're worrying your fans in case the Tower comes through one day. The people that enjoy this show aren't aware of how much they've been duped- They probably don't watch/read any real horror either- perhaps they saw UTD advertised on TV guide channel. You're one of the last bastions of insightful, genuine reflection on what humanity is, can be- and UTD is the equivalent day time sh*t television with Kim Kardashian plot points. You may have satisfied the idiot masses, not the people who value you for your masterful keystroke. You wrote a letter because you felt a need to excuse yourself from the process (UTD tv). The reality of it is that your name is all over this show. Under the Dome - A Letter From Stephen When people look back on YOUR work that appeared on the big/small screen, producers will see an easy job from having the wrong people in charge of your vision. The sun is peaking over the valley and whatdya know, a soft, polished turd flops onto the once lush, green grass. They are afraid of developing characters like Big Jim Remmy, who loves women's basketball because of the ferocity of the players. They are afraid of a little grit, offending. Soft wins all, stock cow mooing clip in the beginning of the show. Cheap. *We weren't worried about the duration of the show being longer or the ending being changed. We're angry the quality is so damned low and that you've apparently accepted this (We get your track record isn't the best, we KNOW it could be so much better)* Some may buy "fraternal twins" when it comes to this story, but the dark tower? I would not forgive you and I have loved your writing ever since I began reading it. Do good by us. We recognize it. I'm sure this all amounts to nothing, I felt moved to write this however. Sincerely, Adam C. Allingham p.s.- Again, what were you thinking? I love your writing. Your books are awesome. Don't give out under the weight of your work.
