Apple Launches its Much Anticipated iPhone

Steve Jobs says Apple's changing the world again
MacWorld 2007 -- Apple today officially unveiled its iPhone which, as many had been hoping for, is quite a revolutionary product indeed. Steve Jobs heralded the iPhone as an industry-changing device that throws out old assumptions and conventions and brings in the new. With all of its features and design cues, the iPhone should prove to be an extremely hot device.
The largest feature on the plate for the iPhone is clearly its display. The iPhone packs a 3.5-inch display with a resolution density of 160 dpi, one of the sharpest screens in the industry. In fact, the screen takes up virtually the entire surface area of the iPhone. There's no keyboard or direction stick on the iPhone, just a big screen. The iPhone operates entirely on touch-screen technology and is something that Apple had been working on for a long time.
last reported that Apple had submitted
filings with the FCC for touch screen technology involving intuitive gestures
. Many assumed that the technology
would be used in a next-generation iPod
, but today it made its debut on the iPhone.
Users are able to navigate the iPhone by using a virtual keyboard that's smart enough to know when accidental tapping occurs. The screen also takes in gestures such as scrolling, pinching and stretching motions. The screen itself is also smart. The user interface automatically changes from portrait mode to landscape mode depending on how a user holds the phone. The virtual keyboard can be called up and tuckd away at any time.
Music is very much part of the iPhone and Apple does not disappoint. Integrated into the iPhone are all the usual iPod features that many users have come to love. Music and iTunes syncing, album artwork support, smart playlist features and, most importantly, movie playback. Steve Jobs demonstrated the iPhone playing back Pirates of the Caribbean 2 in full screen.
In terms of applications, the iPhone supports the usual set of smart-phone features: email, text messaging, web support, address books, photo, video and music playback. However, the iPhone uses smaller versions of applications already used on its Macs. Jobs demonstrated browsing the Internet on the iPhone using Safari -- full websites loaded very quickly and in full detail. Lest there be any doubt, the audience was definitely impressed by the iPhone's speed and rendering capabilities. Users can even pinch the screen to shrink webpages on the fly to fit the screen. Email capabilities are in full force too with support for such sophisticated features as full HTML email support and even IMAP supported through Yahoo! email.
The iPhone's operating system is based on a slim version of Apple's powerful OS X. One of the neatest features on the iPhone is the support for widgets -- the same tiny utility-type applications found on OS X's Dashboard. Jobs demonstrated navigating Google's virtual satellite mapping system and how easy it was to get around applications and widgets on the iPhone's touch-sensitive navigation system. Of course, being OS X, all graphical animations and transitions were silky smooth.
Jobs indicated that the iPhone was also a workhorse. The unit can talk for roughly 5 hours and play back audio for 16 hours. There will be two GSM models released, a 4GB model and an 8GB model, for sale at an introductory price of $499 and $599. As
previously reported, the
iPhone is confirmed today to be a Cingular Wireless exclusive product
. The demo iPhone that Jobs showed already had a Cingular log on it.
Official specifications:
Screen size: 3.5-inches
Screen resolution: 320 by 480 at 160 ppi
Input method: Multi-touch
Operating System: OS X
Storage: 4GB or 8GB
GSM: Quad-band (MHz: 850, 900, 1800, 1900)
Wireless data: Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) + EDGE + Bluetooth 2.0
Camera: 2.0 megapixels
Battery: Up to 5 hours Talk / Video / Browsing; Up to 16 hours Audio playback
Dimensions: 4.5 x 2.4 x 0.46 inches / 115 x 61 x 11.6mm
Weight: 4.8 ounces / 135 grams
The iPhone will begin shipping in June of this year.
"If you look at the last five years, if you look at what major innovations have occurred in computing technology, every single one of them came from AMD. Not a single innovation came from Intel." -- AMD CEO Hector Ruiz in 2007

Adapted for television by Kiersten White
Although CARA, our main character, is one of the POOR GIRLS in school, her house is miraculously huge and impeccably decorated. MOM stands at the counter, making breakfast. We know she is the MOM because she is wearing an apron.
CARA comes in. MOM gives her a smile. CARA raises an eyebrow ironically.
CARA walks down a crowded hall in which all of the students are way too good looking and in their forties. We know they are TEENS because they are wearing trendy clothes and use horribly trendy slang. As she passes DANIEL she deliberately doesn't look at him. DANIEL stares at CARA for an awkwardly long shot, with a close up view of his eyes. We know that there is some sort of HISTORY here. HISTORY that will no doubt come into play later, creating a jealous love triangle. DANIEL is wearing a football jersey so we know he is a FOOTBALL PLAYER and not a father of two in real life.
CARA stops at her locker. All of the lockers are far too nice for an actual high school, and the hall itself is brightly lit and non-scuffed up. This is television and things are SHINY. TWO GIRLS come up, each showing more cleavage than would be decent were they actually sixteen like they are pretending. One is TOKEN BLONDE, the other is PLAIN FRIEND who is still prettier than anyone we know in real life.
TOKEN BLONDE gives a frenemy smirk. Since this is a teen show, we can use lingo like frenemy.
(In future episode we will find out that CARA was not, in fact, in REHAB, but having a baby, because TEEN PREGNANCY is totally hot right now.) TOKEN BLONDE smirks and we know that everyone knows about rehab. Except...NEW HOT GUY. NEW HOT GUY (with an appropriately trendy name) walks down the hall and every single girl watches him. HOT GUY ignores all of them until he catches CARA'S eyes--and we are treated to an intense LOOK that lasts longer than any dialogue we've had so far and makes it clear that these two are DESTINED to have an awkward relationship with FORCED CHEMISTRY that will heat up when they need boosts in ratings, but in the first season will only push the limits in DREAM SEQUENCES. Also, they will break up at least once per episode. But right now this smolderingly awkward look lets us know that these two are THE COUPLE.
TOKEN BLONDE throws back her shoulders for maximum cleavagization as HOT GUY approaches. HOT GUY smiles shyly, but smolderingly, and doesn't even look at TOKEN BLONDE, who is immediately crushed and vindictive. HOT GUY only has eyes for CARA.
Another pause for some awkward, intense staring as PLAIN FRIEND and TOKEN BLONDE look on. PLAIN FRIEND is clearly excited by this development, because she never has plotlines of her own. TOKEN BLONDE is giving over-the-top bitter and jealous faces. She should have been cast in that role, but will camp up hers like nobody's business in the meantime.
CARA smiles tightly, and we all feel bad for her, even though so far we haven't seen her be nice, funny, smart, or charming. But since she is the prettiest girl and is destined to be with the hottest guy, we know that we should love her and root for her. Our stomachs knot in anxiety knowing that during sweeps when CARA and HOT BOY are deeply in love he will find out and it will all go to POT for two episodes.
END SCENE with at least thirty seconds more of staring so the viewers are certain that CARA and HOT BOY have chemistry.
NOTE: Determine whether to have a) vampires, b) football players, or c) really really rich kids populate the school for added drama. Or really, really rich vampiric football players. With nice cars.
I'm pretty sure I have a hit on my hands here.
Note from Laptop: Kiersten asked if it was okay to use my signature font. I said no. You can see how highly she values my feelings.

To Grandmother's house we go! And you'll be in the car for five whole hours - how can you make the trip enjoyable with a baby along?
Learn about it
There's no question: Marathon car trips with a baby on board take a good amount of planning and organization. But it can be done - and yes, it can even be fun!
Planning the trip
In the hustle that precedes a trip, it can be easy to let things happen, instead of make things happen. Be proactive in making your trip decisions. Contemplating these questions, and coming up with the right answers, can help make your trip more successful:
Does your baby sleep well in the car? If yes, plan your travel time to coincide with a nap or bedtime so your baby can sleep through part of the journey. If not, plan to leave immediately after a nap or upon waking in the morning. Don't fool yourself into thinking your baby will behave differently than usual in the car just because it's a special occasion.
Is it necessary to make the trip all at once, or can you break it up with stops along the way? The longer your baby is strapped in the carseat, the more likely he'll become fussy. Planning a few breaks can keep everyone in a better frame of mind.
When estimating an arrival time, have you factored in plenty of extra time for unplanned surprises? A diaper explosion that requires a complete change of clothes or a baby whose inconsolable crying requires an unexpected 20-minute stop are just two of the things that can easily happen.
Do you have everything you need to make the trip pleasant? Items like:
Preparing the car
Take plenty of time to get the car ready for your trip. If two adults are traveling, consider yourself lucky and arrange for one person to sit in the backseat next to the baby. If you are traveling alone with your little one, you'll need to be more creative in setting up the car, and you'll need to plan for more frequent stops along the way.
Here are a few tips for making the car a traveling entertainment center for your baby:
Use ribbon or yarn and safety pins or tape to hang an array of lightweight toys from the ceiling of the car to hang over your baby. An alternative is to string a line from one side of the car to the other with an array of toys attached by ribbons. Bring along an assortment of new toys that can be exchanged when you stop the car for a rest. Just be sure to use small toys and keep them out of the driver's line of view.
Tape brightly colored pictures of toys on the back of the seat that your baby will be facing.
If no one will be sitting next to your baby and your child is old enough to reach for toys, set up an upside-down box next to the car seat with a shallow box or a tray with ledges on top of it. Fill this with toys that your baby can reach for by himself. You might also shop around for a baby activity center that attaches directly to the carseat.

subbed version out
guys have a question who is that person that renji is carry in the very begging in the dattebayo version??
Kick me high, hit me low, spit on me it's gonna take more than that to break my soul.
Kon gets massive screen time. Ichigo gets to own Renji. I officially love this movie. I find it laughable that despite it not being his movie, and he just had a movie about him, hitsugaya will still get a decent amount of screen time in this movie. (or I'm assuming from the OP)
Good old Bleach. I had already forgotten just how weird Zommari is.
The new movie looks sweet. Urahara with captain's robe, Urahara visiting Mayuri who seemed to be imprisoned, Yoruichi (I need my dose of Yoruichi-sama!), Kenpachi taking on Mayuri (That fight I really have wanted to see as their fighting styles are so opposite.), Yama-ji releasing some reiatsu, Kon running wild. And some good action. And Rukia.
It's good to see that they've condensed the episodes, accounting for more than one manga issue per episode. Hopefully we'll make some headway toward the exciting parts.
I don't think its a flashback.....so i want to know why Urahara is wearing a captain's robe, and a older youruchi/soi fon/ukitake is standing behind him. That wht i want to know.
It they should make a movie it should be about urahara and co. (tessa, yourichi, ishini) or 2000 back when yama started the whole academy thing, azien's ascension to one of the most bad ass villain's in the anime-world. (Also kenpachi and yachiuri, matsumoto's boob job, Yumichika boyfriend)
This episode was awsome, i love byakuya but i keep forgetting wht his shikai is like. HELP please........it like he always jumps straight into bankai when he is in a battle.
if i was byukua i would go into bankai as soon as i enter battle-it is way too poweful - sweet episode nice action and funny ending with the cat -fish joke that was quite funny
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he never existed
Give a man a fish you feed him for a day
Teach a man to fish you feed him for life

The Formation of International Treaties

Review of Law and Economics, 2007
George Mason Law & Economics Research Paper No. 05-33
Minnesota Legal Studies Research Paper No. 07-16
This paper develops a stylized model of international treaty formation and analyzes the different modalities with which states can become part of an international treaty according to the procedures set forth by the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties. We consider the rules governing accession to international treaties, distinguishing between three situations: (i) Treaties for which acceptance of a new member requires unanimous approval of the signatory states with an amendment of the original treaty agreement (closed treaties); (ii) Treaties where acceptance of a new member is made possible through the approval by a majority of the existing member states (semi-open treaties); and (iii) Treaties where the original member states have agreed to leave the treaty open for accession by other states (open treaties). Our analysis reveals the effect of the choice of accession regimes on the evolution of the treaty membership and content.

Heritage Days, Huntington City's annual celebration will begin their weeklong run this weekend with the annual Heritage Days rodeo at the rodeo arena. Scheduled for Friday and Saturday nights, this year's kickoff event should continue with all the excitement of past rodeos.
Next week, Heritage Days entertainment will fill the city's pavilions with music as four acts will grace the stage over three days. Tuesday night will see the Val Jensen group of local entertainers fill the night with music at the annual dinner in the park scheduled to begin at 6:30 pm.
Wednesday night, in conjunction with annual free ice cream social, the group "No Limits" will entertain. The group returns this year by popular demand after a successful concert last year. The group "Firefly" will entertain us all on the stage Thursday noon time.
Something different this year will be music filling the air at the rodeo grounds prior to the fireworks show. This popular Utah county group will play popular rock music at the rodeo pavilion starting at 7:00 p.m. and all are invited to get a little closer to the fireworks and enjoy the music.
At the June meeting of the Huntington City Council, it was also discussed the Huntington may be getting the county's first stop light. A recent UDOT traffic study says that the corner of Main Street and Canyon Road has enough traffic to warrant a light. This could be in place by the end of the summer.
The Huntington mayor reappointed all council people to their current assignments for the next year.
The Mayor also appointed Mark Justice, Julie Jones and Gary Arrington to the Master Plan committee. Their first emphasis will be on a recreation plan. In a presentation, Arrington presented an architect's drawing of a new concession stand along with new bathrooms at the city park. The plan utilizes a structure currently used for storage on the site as the park is made bigger and fills the area currently unused.

Hi, I don't know if I'm posting in the right place. I've just joined and live in the UK and am really just needing a little support/encouragement. We kinda fell into AP with our now three year old and mostly I've felt it's really paid off. He is a very bright, kind and lovely child though I'm not so naive as to think he's perfect! However we kinda know what behaviour is normal for him. Since starting pre-school two mornings a week - really to get him used to the idea of 'big' school next year as it's starts so young over here - I felt like his behaviour had gone downhill. He was getting more grumpy and saying stuff like "Get away from me!" which isn't like him. He has an issue there where he doesn't like them taking him to the loo. I was called in yesterday becausse of this and was horrified to discover he had been rude to them and this wasn't just a one off. They had repeatedly said things were OK apart from the toilet issue and even yesterday morning my husband was assured things were fine. We now find out he's been rude seemingly all along. I'm so cross they didn't mention this as we could have tried to nip it in the bud. We now have a situation where he his behaviour has gone so different from how it used to be. Today he threw such a wobbly and was trying to bite and spoke so rudely to me. I know he is no angel and is very strong willed and emotional but how he is behaving seems like a different child. I thought the "Get away from me!" was something he may have picked up at pre-school but they said he's said it all along...so why didn't they alert us? Maybe they just expect this behaviour when trying to control 26 kids!! I'm now feeling like I've failed as a mum and have another one due in just over four weeks and don't feel up to the task as my confidence has really dipped. I'm doubting our style of parenting and wondering if we've ruined him. We have co-slept with him and still do though he has a transition camp bed in the room now...he is also still breast fed though mostly just morning and night. This along with not putting him into a pre-school type setting earlier has put me out on a limb amongst my peers as it's so out there as regards to normal UK parenting. We didn't let him cry himself to sleep and chose not to smack. We do set firm boundaries though and are not overly permissive. I'm so worried that we have done something wrong and so upset by his behaviour. Any input would be gratefully received. Many thanks, Rachel

MomMom and devoted wife to 3 creatures of delight
What you're describing sounds like typical 3yo behavior to me. I'm confused, as I'm sure you are, as to how everything has been great up to this point and now they're saying it isn't. 3 yo's aren't "rude". That's an adult projection onto the attitude of a child. If he's using words they don't like, then they could kindly instruct him as to which words are acceptable. When he says "Get away from me" to you, you could say, "I'm sorry, do you need some alone time? I'd be happy to move away from you." Then, when he's calmed down later, you could say, "If you want me to move away from you, please say 'I need to be alone'." or some other softer phrasing.
All children need to be taught social skills from adults. They don't magically learn it just from being around other kids. In fact, submersion around other children usually teaches them all the things we don't want them to know.
Hi Paxmamma...thanks so much for your reply. Yes I'm sure some of it is normal but it's just the way he is presenting is so unlike his previous behaviour. He's thrown his wobblies and had his grumps and meltdowns but suddenly he seems to have adopted things which just seem unlike his usual way of being naughty. I totally agree that socialising with kids is not the way to learn acceptable ways of being - ideally a small group where sharing and being together can be facilitated, encouraged and modelled by several adults would be more to my liking but that's not the way things generally happen over here. I guess we could have opted for a childminder where there'd be less children but then next year he will go to school where it will be a thirty children to two adult ration and I'm concerned that he needs preparation for this. He's not at pre-school for our convenience or out of necessity for us but purely for his benefit. As it is I've left it later than most do over here.
I feel like we've put so much time and effort into trying to raise him with respect and loving boundaries and suddenly it's all being blown out of the water. I'm terrified of ending up in a nanny 911 situation not least cos I trained as a nursery nurse myself and feel I should know how to control my own child! I absolutely agree that he has a right to make his needs known and try to encourage him to ask me not to do things he doesn't want in a respectful way. I don't know if I've done that with the whole get away from me thing...I've been so shocked by this sudden out of character response. I feel the pre-school is going to major on the fact that number two is due next month but I feel there's more to it than that as he has been very positive about having a sibling throughout the pregnancy even though it has really affected what I can do with him. He doesn't like large groups of children and I feel torn that I have to place him in this situation yet have little choice as school will be even worse. I hate that they go to school so young over here...some of them have just turned four!
Thanks again for your help...Rachel
Hi Rachel,
I'm also in the UK and have 2 boys now aged 4 (nearly 5) and 6).
I would agree that this sounds like totally normal 3 year old behaviour.
He is dealing with a lot of change and transition at the moment - starting pre-school - the arrival of #2 - the move out of your bed into a camp bed... Even if all these changes are positive and he is well prepared and generally happy about them, it is still a lot of change for a small person to deal with. Especially as the arrival of the baby gets closer he will be aware of this and unsure of what to expect, no matter how well you prepare him.
My eldest was younger when #2 arrived (16 months) so it was harder to explain and prepare him, but he also changed into a completely different child. The month before the baby was born was so hard - he was clingy and difficult and whiny and aggressive and wouldn't settle with anyone other than me. I was so worried about how I was going to cope. Then once the baby was born it was like a switch was flicked and he turned into the perfect big brother. It was like everything finally made sense to him and he could just get on with it again.
Did the pre-school actually present the "rudeness" as a problem? Or did they just mention things he had been saying in relation to the toilet issue? It may be that they do see it as normal behaviour and didn't mention it to you before as they were not concerned about it?
The fact that he is having a problem with them taking him to the toilet may well be contributing to this behaviour. It could be seen by him as quite an invasion of his privacy, or feel that they are taking over your role, in ways that he feels unable to express, which could provoke these very strong reactions. How does he normally deal with toiletting at home? If he is only there for the morning, does he need to go to the toilet whilst he is there or could he go with you at the beginning and the end to avoid this problem?
Does he like going to preschool generally? If you really feel he's not ready for it, perhaps it would be worth waiting a bit longer. There is still nearly a year until he needs to start school, and he will have grown up a lot by then. It may be easier if he is a little more independent with toiletting and dressing etc? He could always try again maybe in the summer term once things have settled down a bit after the baby. You can take him to toddler groups etc to get him more used to groups of children if you think that would be helpful?
Oh, the other thing is that you said he was going two mornings a week. When I first went back to work after #2 I did 3 days a week - M,W,F and the boys went to a nursery/ preschool. The eldest in particular (about 2.5 by then) had a dreadful time settling and I felt so awful leaving him there. Then about 6 months later I changed jobs and went full time. I was really worried about sending them for even longer, but in fact it worked completely the other way round. As soon as they went full time they settled so much better and were so much happier there - the difference was amazing. Nothing else changed - same nursery etc, so I can only attribute this to a routine thing. Before, every day he would get up and ask "is it nursery today?" - it was like he never knew what to expect. Whereas once it was every day and staying at home was no longer an option, he could plan for it iykwim? Kids like to know what is coming next!
Also - I'm sure you're aware, but it is not a legal requirement to send your child to school until the term after they turn 5. I think some schools do stagger entry into reception for younger children. I understand that it is not always as easy as this with the competition for places at good schools in many areas though, but it might be worth looking into if you are concerned about this?
Sorry for the essay! Hope some of it was helpful!
Hi terque, thanks for your reply and encouragement...and please don't apologise for an 'essay'...all the help I can get is very gratefully received and I appreciate the time you took. Believe me the way I can waffle on that wasn't a long post...LOL!
It is helpful to hear people say this behaviour is normal...I think I do tend to panic somewhat when behavioural issues arise and balme myself for them. I think also that without wishing to come across as a gushy mum my son has been such an amazing little boy that when he acts out of character it seems all the more alarming. His communication skills from the age of two have been phenomenal...he is sensitive to others and has been so kind a lot of the time during my pregnancy - eg picking things up for me "Cos I know you can't bend!" and being so good about sharing his baby stuff with the new arrival. He seems very bright and can also be very funny. He has also been someone I can often reason with and who used to be so much better at sharing. Actually with adults he is often brilliant at sharing...you practically get a bit of the treat you've just given him forced upon you. I do think he has suffered from one too many situations where he has been hit, attacked, wrestled to the ground or frightened by other kids which has led to some quite defensive behaviour. This really makes me sad and i wish I had taken better steps to give him ore positive social encounters. He seems to get on better with older kids. I think it's that the phrases and behaviour seem so bizzarely unlike him its like he's copying what he's heard and also some of it makes me wonder if he's upset or frustrated about something. He seems to have gone from being a happy child who was a joy to be around to someone who can be so very different. Yes he had his own set of challenging ways...he's very strong willed and could throw a pretty good wobbly at times and would go throug periods where he'd push the boundaries but this seems like something else. maybe it is normal and will pass.
No the pre-school didn't mention it as a problem...it was the toilet thing they originally rang up about cos he needed to go and they can't force him. However it was then mentioned and now it seems to have become a problem but that could be our doing. I definitely am not happy about him being rude to the ladies there nor rude to us at home. I am also concerned as to what is going on that is causing him to be a. so defiant about loo trips with them, b. what makes him end up being rude and c. why he gets so grumpy.
You're right regarding the independant thing...whilst he is very bright and articulate it has taken him longer with things such as toilet training and doing stuff like self-dressing. He was three before we cracked the toilet training. He also does need help regulating his emotions and as his mum I've learnt the ways to do that though by no means perfectly. If school didn't start so young I'd be happy to give him some more time at smaller groups...apart from anything he doesn't like or thrive in large groups of kids. Does the law re. being five apply in England...my hubby thinks it's just Scotland. Trouble is he'd then be going into a group who had already gelled and that was if a shcool more slowly and provide him with a smaller group situation I wonder if I take him out if it'll just be harder for him to adjust to school or pre-school next year. I feel out on a limb as it is amongst my peers and others what with still breast-feeding, co-sleeping and only just starting pre-school. I have a real horror of regretting my choices for him too late when he's turned into a nanny 911 nightmare due to me being too alternative. As to him liking it...I think he does in some ways...he certainly mentions the girls a lot...LOL! I think he likes aspects of it. Maybe it's a bit like a recent party we went to at our church...he was so excited to go and dress up as a pirate yet once there didn't join in until it was quieter, smaller group activities. Yet he still seemed to get something out of just watching. Similarly we go to a group on a Monday morning and try as I might he just does not usually like joining in with the often noisy, busy music and movement bit at the start. In the end I've respected his individual personality and make less of a deal of it with him. At pre-school I know he gets choices but not for everything and it's gonna be harder for them to work with him on these than it is for me. That I guess is the down side of larger instituionalised settings. Don't get me wrong I know I blow it with him loads and lose my patience but I guess I just know him better than they can based on two mornings a weeks since September.
I hear what you're saying re. going more but I really don't want him to have anymore time at pre-school right now. Maybe I'm wrong but I want to make the most of the time we can spend together before he has to start schooll.
Anyway I think that really was an essay...sorry...thanks for your input and take care, Rachel
Hi - just a quick note to confirm that the legal age of 5 does apply in England - see here for more details:
I do appreciate that there are a number of other potential issues (eg social and practical) in deferring school entry until then. And caveated to say that mine have both been in nursery / school since they were very young (and I personally think, for them - not necessarily in general, it has not overall been a bad thing). It is hard, but in some ways also wonderful, to see them learn things which have not come from you!
And whilst rudeness is never a good thing, he is probably just trying out something he has seen somewhere to see how it feels/fits. We have an endless stream of stuff coming home from school (nothing too horribly inappropriate yet thank goodness!). Generally a couple of reminders that it is not "polite" or "kind" to speak to people like that is enough - they just need to test it out! If its accompanied by unusual aggression though, there probably is something that is bothering him.
Best of luck!
When my child is acting "rude", I really try to get to the bottom of it and find out what's going on in her life to stress her out. And then figure out ways that we can meet both of our needs.
The other day, we had 2 friends over, and they were playing a game and having fun. Suddenly, my daughter grabbed the toy and tried to hide it, saying she wanted to play something else. I acknowledged her feelings and asked her why she was trying to put the toy away. I told her I didn't like that because her friends wanted to play with it. Eventually, she let me know that she was feeling upset because the game was too hard for her. So, I asked if we changed the rules of the game up a bit to make it easier for her and one of the other girls, if she'd want to play. It was an immediate yes, and they went back to having great fun.
For what it's worth, we are one of many families who has made a connection from attachment parenting to home schooling. To me, it feels like a natural continuum. Not saying that school is wrong or not for everyone, but, for us, schooling her at home is the best way to continue the type of environment we want for her. Just something to keep in mind, that school is a choice.
Wishing you the best!
Thanks for your response Adrienne and sorry it's taken so long to reply. Yes I totally agree that children need their reactions got to the bottom of as there may be things bothering them that are causing them to then act up. We have tried to talk to him but don't seem to be getting to the bottom of it.I know that part of this may be normal growing up and part of it is because he is a strong willed little fella but I still feel that since starting at pre-school there seems to be a change in how he is. And we still have the issue with him not wanting to go the loo there. I now dread him being there as I'm worried about how he'll behave and what they'll think...at least at home I can try and calm him down and deal with this as consitantly as I can and I can know exactly what's going on. He seems to be getting so much more frustrated and disobedient and yet I feel I must persevere as a. I might be way off thinking pre-school has anything to do with this and b. I don't want to just delay the problem of him needing to integrate with large groups of children. I know he has to learn that with grown ups you just have to sometimes do what you're told cos teachers at school are not going to get into debates about the why's and wherefores. Re. home-schooling I guess I'm just nervous about that for me personally though I can see why people choose it. I just wish we had the option for schooling and pre-schooling which is in a much smaller group setting as I think this would suit him better. Anyway thanks again for your input...take care, Rachel

Loved the shoe so much I bought them twice
"I purchased this shoe in the purple color over a year ago from a departments store. I was concerned about the bungee shoestring. I am a casual runner 2- 3 times a week, usually just a couple miles. The shoes were great, great support, they never slipped at all. And the bungee is so convenient when you are rushing out the door. I had the first pair for over a year and when they started to look a little worn, I just reordered the exact same pair in a new color!"

Love these
"I love the color of these sneakers. I also love the fact that you don't have to tie them. They feel a bit snug when you first put them on but as you wear them they stretch out a bit. Very comfy. I bought my true size 8.5M. Can't wait for warmer weather to wear them walking outside!"

Comfy but pulls my socks off!
"The laces are built in, meaning you do not tie them (which I love). They are not adjustable either, but my feet run narrow and they fit well.One odd problem: I've worn these for one workout session and the heel area is firm and keeps pulling my low cut socks off! Perhaps this will stretch out over time, NB changed their shoe length overall (or my feet grew longer), or maybe my socks are too thick."

Love/hate relationship
"So stinkin' cute! Loved the look & color of these when I saw them in person in store. Had to order my size online only to have my heart crushed upon arrival. Own many pairs of NB, but my big toe rubbed against the front seam on these resulting in an immediate return & disappointment."

The final 12 took the stage Monday, singing for survival.
NBC's The Voice was hot Monday night ... because The Voice studio's air conditioning wasn't working. "They need to turn that back on, for real," Usher said. "It's so hot in here that sound doesn't carry," Blake Shelton complained. Fortunately for us, the mikes still carried sound to our televisions. Here's the best and worst of what went down:
Best moves: Team Usher
Usher has a true protégé in Vedo, who wore an Usher-esque leather jacket and danced an Usher-esque stationary moonwalk (you know, the one where he slides in a circle). Vedo also waved his hands a lot and walked with the beat, which people seemed to like. Without the AC on during his performance of Michael Jackson's Rock With You, he certainly did "feel that heat," as the song goes. But he still had enough energy to hit the high note.
Biggest note: Team Blake
Before Holly Tucker performed Martina McBride's Broken Wing, Coach Blake said, "This song doesn't work unless you sing it hard." Holly responded with a powerful performance that ended in a giant note. We're guessing that's what Blake had in mind. "Gosh dang, girl," Shakira said adorably. "Anybody who ever doubted your talent is a frickin' idiot," Usher said.
Worst song choice: Team Shakira
Yes, English isn't Shakira's first language, but she still needs to broaden her song-choice horizons and throw Garrett Gardner a bone! After tasked with singing a John Lennon song last week, the rocker was given the near-impossible task of performing Backstreet Boys' I Want It That Way. He did his best to infuse as many growls into the song as possible, but Adam Levine wasn't a fan. "I was a little thrown" by the performance, he said.
Hottest moment: Team Usher
The air conditioning did eventually turn back on, but not before Carson took off his jacket, and, more importantly, Usher took off his button-down. The audience cheered for a "very distracting" (Carson's words) Usher in his thin beater. Later, Usher put his shirt back on.
Best song choice: Team Adam
Adam seriously needs to help Shakira out with her song choices. His choice of Brandi Carlile's The Story for Sarah Simmons suited her passionate, gritty voice. Naturally, Shakira was unfamiliar with the song, but she thought it fit her voice. Blake said the performance was "incredible."
Best tribute: Team Blake
The Swon Brothers saluted late country great George Jones with his Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes. With a piano, guitar, lovely harmonies and mood lighting (lots of candles), they nailed the performance. That was a "beautiful, beautiful rendition of that song," Adam said.
Best coach plea: Team Shakira
After Sasha Allen stole the show with a fierce performance of Heart's Alone, Shakira begged viewers to vote for her star. Though we don't think Sasha will need any help making it through to next week, Shakira said, "I promise you I'm gonna write a song called My Sasha" if people vote for her. A fair-enough trade.
Best camera stare: Team Usher
We're really trying to focus on Josiah Hawley's music. But when he seduces the camera, it's hard to realize that his acoustic version of The Script's The Man Who Can't Be Moved is smooth with some nice falsetto. The coaches agreed that it was his best performance so far, and Usher even thought it made him sound like a "young Adam." Adam had no response to that.
Weirdest comparison: Team Shakira
It's easy to compare Vedo to Usher, and even OK to compare Josiah to Adam. But Shakira compared Team Blake's confident teen Danielle Bradbery to a "16-year-old Margaret Thatcher," because "you can never detect an ounce of nerves." However, unlike the Iron Lady, Danielle is not polarizing. Her version of Carrie Underwood's Wasted was widely well-received and made Adam call her "the one to beat."
Boldest move: Team Adam
"Playing by yourself is a gift and a talent that can't be taught," Adam said. Fortunately for Judith Hill, she has the skill mastered. The soulful singer went bandless during her performance of You've Got a Friend. Just Judith and her piano easily filled the entire Voice auditorium with raspy goodness. Blake called the song beautiful and powerful.
Cutest moves: Team Usher
Petite Michelle Chamuel's dance steps include lunges to the beat and a move where she opens and closes her blazer. On Michelle, these moves are adorable and make her sweet version of Robyn's Call Your Girlfriend even more lovable. Adam, a big fan, called her "unique," "passionate" and "engaging." "I love you a lot," he said. Usher said, "I adore you."
Biggest stretch: Team Shakira
Kris Thomas can sing Whitney Houston high notes, but he struggled with 12-year-old Michael Jackson's high notes in I'll Be There. Can you blame a guy for trying? Blake said the song pushed Kris "to the extreme," and Adam said that song was high even for a young Michael.
Most touching: Team Adam
Amber Carrington's mom died of cancer, so the country singer easily related to the second Martina McBride song of the night, I'm Gonna Love You Through It. Amber was feeling the song as she beautifully belted and curled her notes. She more than earned her spot as the show's closer. "You kind of defy the laws of gravity," said a stunned Usher. We think we know what he was getting at.
Who will go home? America's votes alone determine which two, regardless of team, are sent packing Tuesday (NBC, 8 ET/PT).

On March 1, the Buckhorn District honored scouts at their annual Eagle Scout Banquet. The banquet showcased all scouts who earned the rank of Eagle Scout during 2002 and also awarded three special recognitions.
The banquet began at 6:30 p.m. with a welcome by Robert Blackburn and the flag ceremony by the Huntington Stake Eagle Scouts. A trumpet duet of "The Star Spangled Banner" was then performed by Jacob Powell and Bruce Clement. Kameron Tracy Addley offered an invocation and blessing upon the food. The dinner was catered by the De'Ja'Vu restaurant of Huntington.
While guests were finishing dessert, the special guest speaker was introduced. Larry Echohawk, a lawyer and former attorney general of Idaho, spoke to the young men and their parents about the importance of character and values in life. He told them many stories of how the skills and values taught in scouting have helped him in his life and encouraged the young men to learn all that they could so that one day they could have the "power to change" things in their life and in the lives of others for the better. After Professor Echohawk was done speaking, the special recognitions were awarded. First, Thomas Wakefield received a lifetime scouting award. He has been an eagle scout since 1945. He was unable to attend the ceremony, so his brother, Wells Wakefield, accepted the award for Thomas. The other two recognitions were to organizations that had significantly contributed to providing projects for the scouts. The recipients were: Cleveland City and the US Forest Service, John Healy accepted the award.
Danna Gray and Robert Blackburn then presented the eagle scouts. They were awarded with a nice plaque that could either stand or be a wall hanging, and an American flag. The flags were presented by the Elks BPOE 1550, Dan Johnson and Joe Lopez. The honorees were: Kameron Tracy Addley, Logan George DeBry, Jeffrey Delyle Larsen, Garrett Lyle DeBry, Thomas M. Humphrey and Kesler W. Tanner of troop 305; Kendall Reid Bird, Keaton Wynn Cowley, and Kirk Rodney Player of troop 302; Jex Quinton Jensen, Bruce Malcolm Clement and Newt MaCade Jensen of troop 301; Dal Dee Guymon, Scott Andrew Sitterud, Craig Drew Guymon, and Joshua Axel Luke of troop 903; James Bowie Jeffs and Curtis Doug Jensen of troop 328; Bryant Bruce McMullin and Jacob Ammon Powell of troop 385; Garrett Swenson of troop 300; Eric Frank Spears of troop 306; Travis George Barnett of troop 315; and Benjamin J. Roundy of troop 395.
After gathering for photos, the benediction was offered by Dal Dee Guymon.

France 1840 – 1926
In the Norwegian
[En norvégienne] c. 1887
oil on canvas
canvas 98.0 (h) x 131.0 (w) cm
Musée d'Orsay, Paris , Bequest of Princess Edmond de Polignac, née Winaretta Singer 1947
© RMN (Musée d'Orsay) / Hervé Lewandowski
Monet often used the figures of his stepdaughters in his paintings of a mediated world of nature and leisure. Here Germaine, Suzanne and Blanche Hoschedé are boating in the 'Norwegian', a type of wooden rowing-boat popular in France at the time. The youngest girl is standing up fishing, while her older sisters sit and relax, Blanche also trailing a rod in the river. The obvious artistic suspects can be seen here: Monet had looked at Japanese woodblock prints for their off-centre compositions, unusual viewpoints, and radical cropping. Photography contributed similar aesthetic strategies, especially wide angles of focus, use of reflections and cut-off vistas.
All external references to the world beyond the river are cut off by the composition, as Monet omits the sky and the earth. We look out over the water at the boat filled with girls, but the view of the far bank is limited by bosky undergrowth. Light is contained within the spear of the boat's interior, intensified in Germaine's white dress and hat, echoed in the blue-and-white costumes of the other young women, with warm touches added by yellow from their straw hats and pink flesh. Vertical mooring stakes connect to the pale reflections of three figures in the water, with sunlight filtering through the foliage and playing on the foreground of the river.
One inspiration for the composition of In the Norwegian may have been a woodblock print by Utagawa Toyokuni, Three women in a boat fishing by moonlight before 18251, which was later recorded as part of Monet's collection of Japanese woodblock prints and, according to Virginia Spate, may have been owned by the artist at this time.2 The relationship between the works is schematic rather than detailed, with three female figures separated along the gentle arc of the simple vessel. More powerful than its unusual composition—most of the vision action is in the top right quadrant—is the choice of palette, and intensity of colouring. Dark greens and purple-blues dominate the canvas and seem to infiltrate the paler tones of the girls' dresses, which light the interior of the boat.
Monet painted the senses, mainly sight, but evoking others such as hearing, scent and touch. Here the murmuring of wind and water is almost tangible. Time, it seems, has slowed down, almost coming to a standstill, as the girls are content to maintain their position while the summer day persists. Human activity projects into the dreaming world of dark water, foliage and shadows, barely interrupting the eternal flow of the river.
