Somehow or another, I got baptist fans on the brain, and just couldn't let go. So I did them. And they were really fun to do! The way I stitched these fans is indeed in a continuous line, with one start at the beginning of each row of fans and one stop at the end. I'm putting the finishing touches on a tutorial of how I did this quilting to share with you all tomorrow, so stay tuned for that.

The legendary session guitarist Paul Franklin was born in Detroit, MI, in 1953. Country music from greats like Pasty Cline was a part of his everyday home life, but it was a guitar player by the name of Joe Edwards who first influenced the young Franklin and turned his thoughts toward being a musician.
When Franklin was nine years old, he began his mastery of the steel guitar. At 16 he performed a solo spot on the hit tune, "It's So Nice to Be With You." When someone is really good at what they do, word of mouth can spread faster than a brush fire during a drought. And so it was for Paul Franklin.
Franklin graduated from high school around 1970. At the ripe old age of 17, fresh from school, he picked up his dreams and moved to Nashville. In no time at all he had landed a remarkable job as a member of Barbara Mandrell's road band. For several years he traveled with one band or another, playing beside celebrated country artists of the time like Jerry Reed and Dottie West.
In the early '80s Franklin turned his attention to session work. He reached as high a level of success with this venture as with his first. Over the years he performed beside more artists than could possibly be listed here. Some of the bigger names are Rhett Akins, John Anderson, Susan Ashton, Brooks & Dunn, Shania Twain, Tracy Byrd, Suzy Bogguss, Faith Hill, Deana Carter, Alan Jackson, Wynonna Judd, and Clint Black.
During Franklin's extraordinary career he has won many awards. For three years in a row, from 1994 through 1996, he was named best steel guitarist by the Academy of Country Music. In both 1999 and 2000 he was nominated for the Country Music Association's Musician of the Year award.
Along the way, he not only mastered the steel guitar, but also the electric guitar, the pedal steel guitar, the slide guitar, the Dobro, and the pedal Dobro. He has even been known to accompany on the fiddle or drums.

PLAINVIEW – Dr. Peter Bowen, professor of psychology at Wayland Baptist University, has been approved for a micro-sabbatical this summer in order to study child psychology in Kenya, Africa.
Dr. Bowen will be teaching a general psychology course as part of Wayland's course offerings at the Kenya Baptist Theological College in July. While there, Bowen will spend some extra time in order to conduct research that will aid in the development of materials for ministry to Kenya children.
It has been nearly five years since Bowen taught a class in Kenya, but it was that experience that sparked an interest.
"One student wrote his term paper looking at child development," Bowen said. "The introduction of the paper basically said he didn't know of anything in Kenya where anybody has ever thought about child development in regard to church work. He went through his paper talking about some of the major developmental characteristics of children. That has always kind of stuck with me."
As Bowen started preparing for his return trip, he began thinking more about the situation. The prospect of learning more about child development in a country with a large orphan population intrigued him.
Bowen has held off on making specific plans concerning his research until he can do more reading in order to better determine what specific areas to target and what questions to ask. While there he will make several day trips to Nairobi which is near the KTBC campus at Brackenhurst. He will also have time for one extended trip at which time he plans to visit a more remote part of the country.
His specific point of interest surrounds orphans and how they adapt and deal with experiences. Bowen said nearly 10 percent of the population of children under the age of 18 in Kenya is orphans.
Economic, health and cultural conditions are all different for Kenya children as opposed to children form the United States. Therefore, Bowen suggests that simply exporting children's ministry plans to Kenya may not be an effective way to reach the children.
"How are we going to be able to minister to these kids?" Bowen asks. "What kind of emotional and social questions will these kids have? How does that relate to the types of Bible stories that are chosen and the types of applications that you bring out?"
Bowen, who teaches a kindergarten Sunday School class at First Baptist Church in Plainview, said it will be interesting to not only research the situations in regard to Kenyan children, but to take a long look at our own culture and how it relates.
"What does that say about the types of lessons we derive for our own children?" Bowen said.
Bowen, his wife Lynette and two sons, Ryan, age 10, and Jeremy, 7, will leave for Kenya on July 3 and return July 30.

In 20 words or less: I will no longer be updating PastaQueen.com. I will now be blogging at JenFul.com
I used to be Jenny. To some I was even called Jenny Sue. But there were a lot of girls named Jenny in the early 80's and there was always another one in my class. It made me feel less than special, like I wasn't the unique snowflake they tell you that you are. I was Jenny F. and the "eff" sounded so harsh, though not quite as harsh as using the first two letters of my last name would have been: Jenny FU.
I've been PastaQueen for over six years. Actually, I've been PastaQueen since I had to sign up for a Hotmail account during summer camp in 1997. I registered PastaQueen.com several years after that and used it as a portfolio site. Then I set up a blog in its own folder, PastaQueen.com/HalfofMe. Eventually that folder took over the whole domain and that's where I've been writing and […]

Matthew Clarke records and performs several songs in Cornish. I'm adding mellotron (16-violin/choir mixture) to his latest: "Gras dhe Nev". He likes what I've done and we'll record shortly.

For the enchilada sauce:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped Vidalia or other sweet onion
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp or finely minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
3/4 cup beef broth
For the beef layer:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped Vidalia or other sweet onion
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
Kosher salt
3 cloves garlic, grated on a rasp or finely minced
1 pound 85 percent lean ground beef
1/2 to 1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 to 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 packet (about 1/4 teaspoon) Sazon seasoning
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup beef broth
Freshly ground black pepper
For the chicken layer:
1 rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded, meat shredded
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
For the casserole:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
20 to 24 six-inch corn tortillas, cut in half
Make the enchilada sauce: In a medium pot over medium heat, combine the oil, onion, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook until the onion is tender, about 6 minutes. Raise the heat to medium high and add the tomato paste; stir with a wooden spoon and cook until it deepens in color, 3 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin and thyme. Cook, stirring, until combined and fragrant, about 1 minute, then add the crushed tomatoes and beef broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, for 20 minutes. Cover and keep warm over low heat.
Cook the beef: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large straight-sided pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and green and red bell peppers. Sprinkle with a nice pinch of salt and cook until the onion and peppers are tender but not browned, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. In this order, add the beef, onion powder, cumin, thyme, Sazon, tomatoes and broth, allowing time between each addition to stir and blend. Cook for another 8 to 10 minutes, stirring to break down the beef into bits. When the beef is cooked through, taste and season with a pinch of salt and a grind or two of pepper. (Sazon adds salt, so be careful not to over-season.) Set aside.
Prepare the chicken layer: In a large bowl, toss together the shredded chicken, 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce and the cheddar and pepper jack cheeses. Set aside.
Assemble and bake the casserole: Use the butter to coat the bottom and sides of a deep 13-by-9-inch baking dish. In a small bowl, toss the shredded cheeses together. Pour 1 cup of enchilada sauce into the prepared dish. One at a time, dunk the tortilla slices in the still-warm enchilada sauce in the pot and layer them on the bottom of the dish using the straight edges to line the sides, overlapping where needed and covering the entire bottom of the dish. Next, add 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese blend, all of the beef, another 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese blend, a new layer of tortillas dunked in the enchilada sauce, all of the chicken and a final layer of tortillas dunked in the enchilada sauce. Pour the rest of the sauce over all of the layers and top with the remaining shredded cheese blend. Bake until the cheese is melted and the sauce bubbles, about 30 minutes. Let it rest a bit before you slice it, just like lasagna.

Steam and Valve have caused me many problems on my dial-up modem connection, so I will probably never buy anything again from Steam.
For months I could not update and play my games because the servers were always too busy and my connection would get terminated.
All I wanted to do was play my games off-line, but even that was not possible because the games could never finish updating.
When I changed my Internet Service Provider, I had to create an entirely new e-mail address, and Steam disabled my account which contained all my games.
I do not want to spend hundreds of dollars to repurchase all the games I already purchased, and I feel ripped off.
Your advice is good and I should copy the Forsaken Gods patch on a DVD-R after it finishes downloading.
Presently I have 47% of the patch downloaded showing over 83 hours to complete.
The estimated time always changes according to the bit rate streaming through my modem, but it appears this patch will not be finished downloading until early next week.

Citizenship is an individual right says Alailima
Local attorney Charles Alailima says citizenship is the individual right of a person and does not impact political status or culture — including matai and title issues.
Alailima was responding to media questions during a news conference held Tuesday where he announced that a lawsuit had been filed that same day at the federal court in Washington D.C. challenging the constitutionality of federal laws that deny U.S. citizenship to persons born in American Samoa. (See yesterday's edition for more details on the lawsuit)
Among those working on the lawsuit is the Washington D.C. based think tank group Constitutional Accountability Center (CAC). Congressman Faleomavaega Eni earlier this year wrote to CAC voicing concerns over their proposed lawsuit, saying it "poses much uncertainty as to whether our Samoan culture will be protected or challenged in federal court."
He says this issue should be decided by the people of American Samoa and the U.S. Congress, not by a federal court.
During the news conference on Tuesday, it was pointed out to Alailima that there are going to be some concerns from local leaders, who also believe that this issue should go through local leaders and Congress, and not the federal court.
Among the concerns already raised with Samoa News is the impact this lawsuit may have on our political status, culture, and matai system.
"Citizenship is the individual right of the person, it is not a political right, it is not a right that everybody votes on," said Alailima. "It is basically the right of the person to say 'I was born on American soil, I am entitled to the rights of a citizen of the United States'. And this is what this case is all about - it's the individual going to the court saying 'I am born on American soil, I have a right to citizenship'."
"In terms of the political status of our islands, which is clearly something that has to be done overall by a vote of the people—that's something separate from this individual right of citizenship," he said.
For example, he pointed to the case of Jake King who filed his case with the federal court several years ago on the issue of "his personal right to a trial by jury" in the local court and the federal court ruled that King "has a personal right to a trial by jury."
"The concerns expressed by larger society about the political implications of this [lawsuit], are really something that need to be discussed separately from this right being asserted now by the plaintiffs," he said.
Alailima reiterated that the political side of this issue "does not affect us as a territory", adding that residents of Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Island, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands are U.S. citizens and still maintain their own territorial status.
He said the lawsuit seeks to grant the right of the individual who decides that they want to go to the United States and ensures they are not going to be treated differently, because they were born in American Samoa.
"In terms on the affect on our culture and our fa'asamoa — the United States [courts] have ruled in a number of cases that citizenship is not a suicide pact for your culture," he said, adding that Native Americans have gotten citizenship and they still retain their lands, and even got casinos there. "But they have retained control of their land, their families."
He said this is the same situation for Guam residents, who are U.S. citizens but have been able to retain their land, just like the other territories.
"Citizenship does not say to give up your rights to your own culture and your own customs and your own traditions," he said. "Citizenship is personal to people. Our clients here say 'I want a right to the full participation in the political, social, economic structure of the United States.'"
He said separating out those born in American Samoa as U.S. Nationals was "something invented" by the federal government "to basically avoid having to deal with a lot of people who were coming under the U.S. jurisdiction in the early 1990s [and] is no longer applicable now."
He said American Samoa has been part of the United States for 112 years and it's time to "move forward".
According to a news release given to reporters on Tuesday, in violation of clear language in the U.S. Constitution, current federal law classifies persons born in American Samoa as so called "non-citizen nationals", a status that was invented by the federal government after the U.S. acquired overseas territories in the early 20th century.
Today, the "only" Americans who are still classified as "non-citizen nationals" are those born in American Samoa.
Margaret Stock, an immigration attorney in Alaska who often handles cases involving American Samoa nationals, tells The Associated Press that statutes have been passed in other territories defining them as part of the United States and entitling people born there to U.S. citizenship, but not everyone in American Samoa wants that.
Being a citizen at birth would mean all of the U.S. Constitution applies, which would prevent certain communal land ownership rules unique to American Samoa, such as favoring those with Samoan blood, Stock said. "This has been a big debate in American Samoa for a long time," she is quoted by the AP as saying.
In a statement yesterday, Faleomavaega strongly opposed efforts to use the judicial system to force citizenship upon every person who is born in American Samoa.
While respectful of the rights of the plaintiffs in this case, Faleomavaega said, "I believe the choice of becoming a U.S. citizen belongs to the people of American Samoa, and not by judicial legislation."
"The future of our territory is being threatened by outside forces and we must unite in our opposition to this lawsuit. I firmly believe the future of American Samoa should be decided by the people living in the territory, not by a court 7,000 miles away," he said.
The Congressman has also sent letters to the Fono leaders summarizing the lawsuit and reiterated his opposition to the suit, which if successful will force citizenship upon everyone born in American Samoa.
In the letter, Faleomavaega says if the federal court rules in favor of the plaintiffs and the Citizenship Clause is applied to American Samoa, "this will set the precedent for other provisions of the U.S. Constitution to be applied in the Territory. This is a cause for concern as the courts may invalidate any of our local laws that protect our Matai system and communal lands."
"For years, I have warned the people of American Samoa of the dangers of outside forces determining the future of our territory," he said. "The lawsuit filed this week is the manifestation of our greatest fear, that citizenship will be forced upon us and we could lose our Matai system and communal lands."
For example, in King v. Andrus case, a federal court applied the jury system to the American Samoa judiciary system against our will, he said, adding that this week a federal court is again asked to decide an issue critical to American Samoa.
"We must ask ourselves — do we want a court to decide whether we become citizens or do we want to decide our own destiny?" he said.
He reiterated that the issue of citizenship should be decided by the people currently living in American Samoa who plan on remaining in American Samoa.
"...any potential negative consequences of citizenship being granted to all persons born in American Samoa will affect persons living in American Samoa, not those living in the United States," he said. "For those living in the United States, there are existing pathways to citizenship that allow them to become U.S. Citizens. There is also a fee waiver available for some individuals who are not able to pay the filing fee for the naturalization application."
"My hope is for a thorough review by the Fono on this important issue," he added.
Samoa News notes that Faleomavaega has also proposed a bill that would allow American Samoan nationals to apply for US citizenship from the territory, meaning they would not have to live in the US for a specific time period in order to apply. He has held several local forums, as well as addressed the Fono on the issue over the past few years. The bill is currently still pending.

A Taste of Newport on a Summer's Eve
NEWPORT CITY – Are you looking for a place to sink your teeth into something delicious? If so, make your way to downtown Newport with its variety of restaurants to satisfy every pallet. Thursday evening, 100 individuals, some of whom came from as far away as Montreal and central Vermont, attended the second annual Jay Peak Resort Taste of Newport. Participants started at the Goodrich Memorial Library for wine and cheese. They finished at the Eastside Restaurant for dessert. In between, they sampled food from Newport Natural Café, Baan Thai Cuisine, Junior's and Habaneros Mexican Grille, Lago Trattoria, Le Belvedere, and Hoagie's Pizza.All of the restaurants are part of the Fresh by Nature program, which connects local farms and local restaurants. The purpose of the program is to market downtown Newport as a culinary destination. Judging by the smiles on the participants, everyone seemed satisfied with the samples of food and drink. Miss Vermont, Katie Levasseur of Burlington, was one of the participants. As part of her duties, Levasseur travels across the state to support community events, speak about her platform and participate in relevant charity work.Levasseur, who grew up in the St. Johnsbury area, wanted to support an event in her native Northeast Kingdom."I think it's wonderful," said Levasseur of the Taste of Newport. "I had so much fun tonight supporting local farmers and supporting local food."Local farmers and the local economy is what keeps towns and cities growing, said Levasseur, who also stressed the importance of supporting local businesses.

Unique Italian Culinary Vacation Experiences
Our Culinary and Experiential Vacations in Italy are about much more than just food and cooking. Our goal every week is to provide you with the experience of a lifetime. We do this by immersing you into the culture while giving you the sense of having found your home away from home. You will truly feel like family when you are with us. We don't do the traditional 'tour' thing. When we cook, we are a group of friends cooking. When we are on excursions, we are a group of friends on an outing. It is a unique experience like none other, such that time and time again our guests tell us it was the experience of a lifetime… the best vacation they had ever taken… far exceeding expectations… and that after spending time with us, we had completely changed the way they will travel forever.
A Truly Authentic Italian Family Experience
It all started with a simple idea. We had our own friends and family visit us regularly, and they always said they had the experience of their lifetimes visiting us. They said we had shown them the culture of food, family and friends in a way they could not imagine, and our parting was always in tears. So one day we thought that this simple idea was missing in tourism. We would do exactly what we do with our own friends and family… and it worked.
It starts with location. There is nothing quite like small town hospitality when you get away from the areas infected with mass tourism.
The people are warm and welcoming, and the more you eat their food and drink their wine, the more they fill with joy. That sense of Italian hospitality is our number one priority with every guest. When it is all said and done, our goal with each guest is not to simply show you Italy and offer Italian culinary experiences. It is to bring you into our family. Everything we do revolves around that premise. It is all so relaxed and fun. Our guests quickly find that we don't treat them like customers. We treat them like visiting relatives (The kind we enjoy having, that is!). Of course, this sounds like marketing mumbo jumbo, but it simply isn't. It is one of the reasons our guests so regularly tell us we far exceeded their expectations. None of them could fully imagine that this family feeling could be possible, but it is… week after week.
"Be" The View
People often talk about what they "saw" when they went on vacation. Our guests talk about what they "experienced". While tourists are busy taking pictures of the beautiful sights they see, our guests are travelers. They are the sights. That is because we integrate into the lifestyle as we fully immerse ourselves into the culture. We are doing... not just seeing. So as every opportunity presents itself, we are right there. During the wine harvest, while others are wine tasting, we are harvesting grapes and making wine. During the olive harvest, while others are buying new oil, we are making it. While others are just buying and eating fresh Italian cheese, we are making it. Every week with us is a new and unique life experience that our guests cherish for the rest of their lives.
Hands-On Cooking of Traditional Local Cuisine
All of our cooking classes are 100% full-participation, hands on, and done completely from scratch. Our classes are not academic, they are real-world home cooking. Most of our classes result in amazing 4 and 5 course meals, and you will be fully involved in every stage along the way. The food is always based on local recipes, so at each of our locations, you will get an entirely different style of cooking. Since we focus on home style cooking, you will be able to take what you learned home and use it. Each cooking class is structured in a very casual way, such that those that really want to learn will get the knowledge they seek, while those that just want to causally cook will feel at home, and those not interested in cooking will still have an amazing time. We dance, we sing, we have a wonderful time no matter what you are looking to get out of it.
Small & Intimate Groups
We need to get to know one another and all become friends, so our groups are big enough to make sure we have compatible personalities, but small enough that we never feel like a crowd. Beyond that, we eat in small town restaurants that don't handle large groups, and we want to always make sure we have the best of the best. Add to that the fact that the cooking classes should be big enough to feel like a fun party, but small enough to get one on one learning. So our vacations usually consist of around 14 to 18 guests, during which we bring you a wonderful balance of hands-on cooking experiences, culinary outings, excursions to major sightseeing destinations, as well as some of Italy's most wonderful hidden treasures.
All-Inclusive.. All the Time
The family feel of our vacations would go away quickly if you suddenly found us asking you to pay extra for something, so we don't… never. Unlike other tour companies, we won't offer any optional add-ons... it is all just included. From the moment we meet, we take care of all transportation, all classes, all excursions, all meals, etc. Because of this, we also make sure our schedule has something going on all day, from morning to night. Of course, you don't have to do everything. If you prefer, you can always stay back and take it easy until you want to rejoin us, but you will always know we have something going on… and it is always included in the base price. In other words, if you were visiting friends and family, they would show you the time of your life... they wouldn't start hitting you up for money at every turn.
We've Got Your Back
When you visit friends and family, they always make sure you are always treated fairly. They have your interests in mind. But most tour companies make back end deals with stores and restaurants so that they profit from your spending.
In a Nutshell...
All of these things make our vacations an amazing experience like none other. Just look at the scores of letters written by our guests, and you will see the common themes: "I felt like I was part of your family" and "It was the experience of a lifetime". It may all sound like marketing as you read this, but here is a little secret: We learned early on that working like this makes it all feel like a vacation for us, too.

Few cities have as much style as New Orleans! Layers of social and cultural styles of dressing, interior design, and of course cooking give The Big Easy a complex sensibility that you won't find in another American City. You might feel like you need a passport to enter the Crescent City, because this town is definitely not like the one you call home!
New Orleans is filled with talented and creative souls in all forms, from the gifted musicians to the masters of cuisine. It is impossible not to be inspired at every turn.
One very talented native New Orleanian is a man known by millions of TV fans all over the world. Bryan Batt starred as Art Director Sam Romano in the Emmy winning series Mad Men. Set in a 60's era advertising agency on New York's Madison Avenue, the show became a major pop culture phenomenon. The fashion world became smitten with the cool retro glamour of the men and women of Mad Men. Catwalks all over Europe and NY suddenly featured the very grown up tailored look for men, and slightly prim, but retro sexy vibe for women. (Think full skirts and tight sweaters).
In real life, when Mr. Batt is not starring on Broadway or acting on TV, creating interiors has always been another true passion. He and partner Tom Cianfichi run home accesorry boutique- Hazelnut on Magazine Street. In the Uptown section of the city, Hazelnut showcases the guys eclectic taste and attitude towards decorating your home. (Also an excellent gift resource).
Mr. Batt's new book big, easy Style has page after page of perfectly styled rooms that are sure to strike a chord with your own personal style. A play on words of New Orlean's nickname - big, easy, Style is meant to ensure readers to have fun when designing rooms to live in. If you choose items that bring out your own style, the room will make you happy to be there every single day. The book is full of photos of Mr. Batt's home and countless others from all around New Orleans, in just about every style you can think of. Also, the book has a great list of resources of home furnishing and antique stores. New Orleans is of course, home to some of the finest French Antique stores in the country. Balzac Antiques is a great example of just such a store, and it is referenced in the book. Sarah Scott Thomas has the eye of a curator and the passion of a collector. Her shop on Magazine street is a favorite of collectors from all over the Country. In fact, on a recent visit to her store, I met clients from Dallas, San Francisco, and New York - all in the store on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Many shoppers had stopped by that day to see Antique Restoration specialist Christophe Pourny who was having an in-store appearance at Balzac to promote his line of furniture care products. Bryan Batt is also a friend, and we all caught up over at Mr. Batt's bustling store. Bryan was having his book signing and Hazelnut was hosting a block party - complete with a Jazz band! What a fun weekend in New Orleans!
If you haven't been to The Big Easy in a few years - plan your trip NOW! The hard work and dedication of New Orleanians to restore their beautiful city after Hurricane Katrina has really payed off. Their perseverance and welcoming spirit will warm your heart. You owe it to them, and to yourself to visit New Orleans. The weather is just about perfect at any time of year. While it is hot and sticky in the Summer, that's when things get really interesting!
Click the big,easy Style book cover to bring a copy home today. Click Mr. Batt's photo to visit Hazelnut - they have a HUGE selection of Christmas ornaments that can easily be packed and shipped. Also, click Balzac to see some truly beautiful French Antiques. See you in NOLA!

Hello Everyone
It has been a problem since I returned to work. my baby is 3 months old. weighing 14lbs 3 oz. I pump thrice at work
7:15 am- dream feed him one side.
7:45 am-pump both breasts while driving to work - 2 - 2.5oz
10 am- pump 3-4 oz with one letdown. less than 10 minutes pumping
12- 1pm- nurse him at home or pump - 3-4 oz one letdown
3-4 pm-pump 3-4 oz one letdown .
meanwhile baby does not drink much, he is little sleepy all day because he nurse overnight at least thrice.
Morning sometimes he may take unto 3-4 oz paced feeding like 1.5 oz then after 20 minutes 2oz and goes to sleep. thats how he used to nurse with me. he nurse one side play for half an hour nurse other side and go to sleep for 2-3 hours. So when I come home to nurse at lunch time he is always asleep so I have to dream feed him both side and he continues to sleep until 2:30 or 3Pm. even if he woke up. he will take half to 1 oz on top of nursing after I leave to work and goes to sleep sometimes until 4 pm.
baby wakes up at 4 pm take 2-3 ounces and plays for sometime, I come home at 5:30 and I nurse him. Since he did not take whatever I pumped the whole day, or at least reasonable amount. he is. not getting enough all evening,. his wet diapers become less. he nurse often. (I am not bothered with his cluster nursing) I just want him to get enough. he nurse overnight every 2 hours. I can hear him swallowing.
there are days he has taken 4 oz in the morning, nursing session in the noon, and then unto 3-4 oz in the mid afternoon. those days he is really fine,. I come home at 5 :30 nurse him , those days wet diapers are good,. So if he takes atleast 10 oz while I am away he is fine. he is really happy . If he takes less milk I am very sure he is not getting enough in 24 hours. please help how can I fix this.
SO I am really confused how to make this work. say this Friday I nursed him at 7:15. he woke up and after I left he just took 0.75 oz slept until 11:45Am. and then he took 4 oz, slept until 4 pm. (my mom woke him up to feed since he was sleeping for long time) he then took 3 ounces. But I have pumped thrice at work. got 12-13 ounces.
I nursed him after I came home. and I can definitely say that he is not getting enough. ( he is not crying or he is not fussy) but its my mother instinct that I am very sure he is not getting enough milk in a total 24 hours since I returned to work.
My questions are I feel like he is missing a feeding, but I pump a extra feeding session. thats what I feel. But I am not sure how to fix it. I always encourage him to nurse at night,. I feel it is backfiring now, since he sleep so much during day and missing a feeding,. Please Please help. If this continues I have to quit my job.
Baby is fine with the bottle. he will take milk from a bottle. there are no issues with that.

- Pastry:
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup ground almonds
- ¾ cup shortening or ½ butter; ½ lard
- 1/3 cup ice water
- Sift flour and stir in almonds. With pastry blender, knives, or food processer, cut together flour mixture and shortening. Add ice water, a little at a time until a pliable dough is formed. Divide dough in half, wrap and refrigerate at least ½ hour.
- Filling:
- 6 cups fresh or frozen and thawed sour pie cherries
- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure almond extract
- ¼ cup minute tapioca
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Combine cherries, sugar, extract and tapioca. Let stand 15 minutes. Roll out ½ pie crust and line a 10 inch pie plate. Roll out other half and cut into strips for lattice top (or use one of those fancy pie crust cutters).
- Fill crust with cherry mixture. Dot with butter. Cover with top crust. Bake 45 – 50 minutes or until bubbly. Cool until juices set and serve plain or with whipped cream or ice cream.
Terri's Notes
You can make a quick and easy version that is almost as good by using prepared pie crusts...I roll out the bottom one just a bit to make it bigger so it will fit in a 10" pie plate. Sprinkle ground almonds across the crust and press them into the dough. Cut the second crust into strips for lattice top. Use two cans of cherry pie filling, adding almond extract. Eliminate tapioca and butter.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
When a group of easily identifiable religious Jews is actually allowed to ascend Jerusalem's Temple Mount, the reaction of Muslim worshippers typically borders on open violence.
Jews (and Christians) are often prevented by Israeli police from entering the Temple Mount compound for fear of Muslim hostility. And even when groups are granted entry, most are not easily identifiable as Jews (most Orthodox Jews believe it is wrong to ascend the Temple Mount lest they inadvertently enter the area of the "Holy of Holies").
But every once in a while, an Orthodox Jewish group will visit Judaism's holiest site. And when they do, the Jews' treatment at the hands of the adherents of the so-called "Religion of Peace" is simply disgraceful.
In the following video, one such group can be seen being harassed and even assaulted by a large Muslim mob, as Israeli police officers try desperately to maintain order. Among the group of Jewish visitors are a number of children, who are various points in the video can be seen crying and fearfully clinging to their parents.
One of the adults in the group tries to calm the children by saying, "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! This is our place!"
The incident was filmed and uploaded to YouTube by a Temple Mount movement headed by Linda Olmert, the sister-in-law of recently convicted former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. Linda recently spoke to Israel Today about the situation for Jews on the Temple Mount.
Linda Olmert's interview appears in the May issue of Israel Today Magazine. SUBSCRIBE NOW to read it!

Siena Heights men's lacrosse scores CCLA North victory
Coach Craig Rainey recorded his 500th career win Sunday, as the Adrian College baseball completed a four-game series sweep of Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association rival Olivet at Nicolay Field.
Adrian's 9-2 triumph in Game 1 gave Rainey win No. 500. The Bulldogs then finished the sweep with a 4-1 victory, improving their record to 13-5 (7-1 MIAA).
Olivet (2-10, 0-4) led 1-0 after one inning in Game 1. The Bulldogs then scored three in the second, highlighted Ben Yax's two-run triple, and added one in the fourth, two in the fifth and three in the sixth. Mitch Stefanski's two-run homer in the sixth made it 8-2, and Drew Shutes scored the final Bulldog run on a wild pitch.
Brent Greenwood allowed one earned on seven hits, struck out four and walked none in seven innings.
Yax and Sam Fischer each went 2-for-3 with two RBIs. Shutes went 2-for-4 and scored two runs. Tommy Eng added a two-run single and scored two runs.
Just like Game 1, the Bulldogs allowed a run in the first and took a 3-1 lead in the second. Another run in the fourth created the final margin.
After a shaky start, Adrian pitcher Holden Branch (Onsted High School) allowed no runs and four hits over his final five innings. He finished the game with six hits allowed, two strikeouts and three walks.
Adrian finished with only four hits. RJ Rios, Eng and Yax recorded RBIs.
The Bulldogs will host MIAA rival Hope on Friday.
Aquinas at Siena Heights: Siena Heights split its Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference doubleheader Sunday, falling 13-10 (10 innings) in Game 1 and winning 4-3 in Game 2.
Siena Heights (8-9, 2-2 WHAC) and Aquinas (9-8, 2-2) combined for 23 runs and 27 hits in Game 1.
Aquinas sent the game into extra innings with a run in the top of the nine and then took the lead with three unearned runs in the 10th.
Austin Hauck went 2-for-3 with two RBIs for Siena Heights. Dan Muller went 2-for-4 with a home run and two runs. Mike Lollo, Alec Duncan and Joe Williams each had two hits. Drew Byers added two RBIs.
Three runs in the sixth inning of Game 2 helped Siena Heights salvage a split. Dennis Sharp had two RBIs for Siena Heights. Muller and Eric Henderson each had an RBI, while Logan Curtis hit a double.
Brent Vaccaro started for Siena Heights, allowing three runs on two hits while striking out two and walking two. Matt King earned the win after pitching two scoreless frames.
Siena Heights will play a WHAC twinbill Wednesday at Madonna.
Siena Heights 18, Oakland 4: At Adrian, the Saints started strong and cruised to a Central Collegiate Lacrosse Association North Division win Sunday at O'Laughlin Stadium.
Siena Heights (3-4, 2-0 CCLA North) scored the game's first six goals and led 9-2 at halftime. The teams each scored the same number of goals in the second half.
Nate Woods led the Saints' attack with four goals and two assists. Brennen Gohr scored three goals, while Ben Lama and Adam Keay each had two goals and two assists. James Lauria contributed three assists.
Siena Heights will host league opponent Lawrence Tech on Friday.
Siena Heights at Madonna: At Livonia, the Saints returned to action after a 21-day layoff in Sunday's WHAC doubleheader against Madonna. Siena Heights lost 8-0 (five innings) and 10-5 in their conference openers.
Siena Heights (9-7, 0-2 WHAC) did not record a hit in the opener. Pitcher Katie O'Hotzke allowed seven runs (five earned) on 11 hits in four innings.
In Game 2, the Saints were tied at 5 with Madonna (16-5, 2-0) after three innings. The Crusaders outscored Siena Heights 5-0 over the final four innings.
Megan Jones went 2-for-3 with a home run and three RBIs. Mariah Boss went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs.
Morgan Warfield took the loss in the circle, allowing eight earned runs on 12 hits in 4 1/3 innings. Taylor Hayes pitched the final 2 2/3 innings, yielding one run on three hits.
Siena Heights will play another WHAC doubleheader at Concordia on Tuesday.
Indiana Tech 18, Siena Heights 7: At Adrian, the Saints struggled in the first half of Sunday's WHAC contest at O'Laughlin Stadium.
Siena Heights (6-7, 2-4 WHAC) trailed 14-4 at halftime. Indiana Tech (5-2, 5-0) led 5-1 early and scored nine of the last 10 goals of the first half. The Saints were outscored 4-3 in the second half.
Erin Kehn scored four goals for Siena Heights. Stephannie Gonzalez scored twice, while Sydney VanHoose also scored. Saints goalkeeper Tabitha Gerguson finished with 15 saves.
Autumn McMillan (Tecumseh) scored four goals for Indiana Tech. The Warriors outshot Siena Heights 40-19.

Celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D axed a Los Angeles TV interview at the last minute on Wednesday after refusing to discuss her broken engagement to Jesse James.
The star was due to promote the new series of her reality show L.A. Ink on breakfast program Good Day L.A., but she scrapped the chat moments before she was due to go live after learning she would be quizzed about her break-up.
Von D was reportedly angered by producers' decision to introduce her appearance by using a clip from L.A. Ink which featured the former couple at her tattoo shop, where she had a childhood image of James inked onto her skin.
In an angry post on Twitter.com after her walk out, she wrote, "Dear GoodDayLA, thanks for the waste of a perfectly good morning. Lack of compassion n (and) respect for each other never fails to dissapoint (sic) me."
But Von D's actions prompted presenter Jillian Reynolds to hit out at the star for her lack of professionalism and urge her to confront representatives at cable channel TLC, who provided the show footage.
Addressing the situation, Reynolds said, "I would say to you Kat, bring it up with TLC, the company that sent the clip of your reality show with Jesse in it. We were just trying to promote your show… If you're putting your life on a reality show and then you're not willing to talk about it, it seems kind of…. We sympathise that you broke up, but of course we were gonna ask about it, that's the clip that they sent to us."
Von D and James confirmed their split on Tuesday.

Entries in Foot Controller (1)
iPad at NAMM 2013 - IK Multimedia
If you create music on or via your iPad, you need to know about some of the very cool stuff announced at the Winter NAMM Show that has taken place over the last few days in California.
There is a lot to get excited about as always, so in the next few posts we are going to highlight some of the shiny new tech announced for your iPad.
iRig BlueBoard
IK Multimedia had several new products to announce at NAMM this year, but this is the one that got us the most excited.
As anyone who has tried it knows, switching settings or presets in the middle of a song using any of the iPad guitar FX sims is pretty tricky and worst of all, it means taking your hands off the guitar which usually requires adapting the way you play the song to allow time for poking at the touch screen.
Foot controllers are the natural solution to this problem and this is not the first Bluetooth foot controller for iOS we have seen, but it might be the nicest looking.
The BlueBoard ($99.99 / €79.99) is a wireless MIDI controller (so it should work with most MIDI apps you have on your iPad. It is advertised as working up to about 30ft away from your main iPad rig, so you could set it up on the other side of the stage for those spotlight solos whilst retaining some control over your virtual pedal setup. It will also work with your iPhone/iPod Touch and your Mac if you have one.
Check out the video below and the web page for more details, suffice to say, we want one very badly!
iRig HD
More than just an update for the much loved (and to be honest still default for us) iRig guitar interface, the iRig HD is another device altogether.
iRig HD a 24-bit A/D convertor, with thumbwheel adjustable pre-amp on the device and digital noise reduction plus many other features, but what really stood out for us is that this device can be used with your Mac too via an interchangeable cable that features USB, 30-pin and Lightning dock connectors.
This is for us a brilliant feature that means purchasing less cables or audio devices for musicians who use both iOS and Computer based processing/recording apps.
We have yet to hear what it really sounds like, but we are really keen to find out and we will be looking out for some good samples in the near future.
More details again on the web page and in the video below:
We are always interested to hear what you think and what announced products you are looking forward to seeing (or maybe just adding to your wishlist). Let us know in the comments below.

(Corrects reference to the state in which Bloomington.)
The National Association of Realtors released metro area home-price data for the second quarter, and the breakdown makes clear that house-price growth is slowing down. According to the NAR, 19 areas in the second quarter had double-digit increases, compared with 37 areas in the first quarter and the overall average of 43 areas since the second quarter of 2013.
Nationwide, the median existing single-family home price in the second quarter was $212,400, up 4.4% from the second quarter of 2013.
The first map shows cities in which single-family homes rose by at least 10%.
It's led by two Oregon cities, Salem — with 24.9% growth — and the Eugene-Springfield area, with 18.1% growth, and has a decidedly western orientation.
The second map shows cities where single-family home prices fell.
Elmira, N.Y., saw prices tumble 29.7% (from an admittedly low base), and the area around Bloomington, Ill., saw prices drop 8.8%.
Read related post: Why one city saw a 30% drop in prices.
At least one city may perplex — the New York City area saw prices slip 0.8%. Keep in mind — that's for single-family homes. The NAR also calculates apartment and condo prices, which have shot up 14% in the Big Apple.
The top five markets by single-family home prices are: the San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif., area at $899,500; the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, Calif., area at $769,600; the Anaheim-Santa Ana-Irvine, Calif., area at $691,900; the Honolulu area at $678,500; and the San Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos, Calif., area at $504,200.
The cheapest five markets by single-family home prices are: the Youngstown-Warren-Boardman, Ohio, area at $78,600; the Rockford, Ill., area at $85,300; the Elmira, N.Y., area at $87,800; the Decatur, Ill., area at $90,900; and the Toledo, Ohio, area at $95,900. (Note that the NAR didn't have data on Detroit.)

Minor in English
The English minor is beneficial to students who do not necessarily want to major in English but who need a useful minor, either for the education degree or for any other major where language facility is important. The ability to communicate well is a vital component in most fields of study, and employers look for people who can express themselves well, no matter what the major field happens to be.
The English minor gives students experience in understanding the major genres of art literature (poetry, fiction, and drama) on a basic level that leads to more advanced involvement with critical analysis and writing about literature. The minor requires a total of 21 credit-hours, beginning with 15 required credits, including the introductory courses in literature forms, critical thinking, and the study of selected American and British literature periods. The student may then select 6 elective credits from various writing, literature, or language studies. Nine of these hours must be on the upper-division (300-400) level. This minor program gives a student a good range of experience within the field, and it can be tailored to suit the individual student's personal goals and aspirations. A broad knowledge of English language literature is imperative for one to understand his/her own cultural roots, and the ability to express oneself effectively is one of the most valuable tools a person can possess. This minor, therefore, is a practical, adaptable minor that enhances any field of study either inside or outside the humanities area.
