I've been seeing a lot of crochet projects lately. I'm not sure if it's the time of the year or of crochet is becoming popular again… Whatever the reason, I've been inspired to give it a try.
My Granny was a crocheter and my mom, siblings and I all have a few of her blankets. She tried to teach me when I was younger. (5th grade maybe?) Though all I managed was a half finished doll blanket. Pretty much all that stuck with me was how to make a loop knot and chain stitch.
I picked up a little how to pamphlet, crochet hook and some chunky chenille yarn on one of my last trips to the craft store. I was having trouble with the book, so I started looking around on the internet for how to videos and stumbled across a a few crochet classes on Craftsy. They happened to be having a sale, so I went ahead and bought the Crochet Lab for beginners and got to work.
I was having trouble figuring out which loops I was supposed to be putting the hook through after the 1st and second row and how to keep my edges even. The craftsy class really helped with this!
The little scarflette was super simple to make. It's just regular, single crochet. I use a size 11 hook and did 42 single crochets for seven rows and then attached the button with a bit more yarn. I loved working with this thick and chunky yarn. It's so soft and makes the project go very quickly. (this is the one I used)
The hat was made with double crochet and I used this tutorial for the pattern.
So cute! She loves them, and I cant wait to make more of these hats for everyone!

Happy Friday, friends! I hope everyone had a great week. This week has been nothing short of crazy again which seems to be becoming the new norm around here. I'm really looking forward to things slowing down a bit but I'm not sure I see that happening anytime soon. I took off today to prep for A's party this weekend. I'm hoping to get a lot done so we can somewhat relax before guests arrive.
Here's a look at some of my favorites from the week...
1. Elephant's Trunk Flea Market:
I mentioned I would share more about our flea market experience so I figured my favorites would be a great time to do that. If you've ever watched Flea Market Flip then you know that a frequent flea market they visit on there is called the Elephant's Trunk located in Connecticut. It seems like most people have never really seen the show so it might sound like I'm talking another language over here. Basically the concept is two teams are on the show and get to go to a flea market to pick out three items from different categories. They are then responsible for coming up with the design concept to transform these finds into newer usable pieces. They then go to another flea market after their projects are finished and try to resell them for the most profit.
News flash, we were not on the show. But, we did have a lot of fun finding our own treasures, and realized we all unintentionally had coordinating outfits on. At first we weren't sure how the boys were going to do but A ended up really being into it and actually came home with the most finds. We're going to be working on his new room after the baby gets here and he wants to have an explorer room. We already have some accent things at home for him but he found a carved wooden cheetah, a deer, and a bug. Little nugget wanted a motorcycle he came across and after that purchase he was pretty content. Eric and I were looking at some old vintage cameras and the vendor ended up asking us if we wanted them all for $20. We were like, are you serious? He said yes and that he didn't want to take them back home with him. That was a huge steal considering we looked at two other vendors who wanted between $45-$75 just for one. We told him we would take them and walked away with seven different cameras. I plan on displaying them on a shelf at some point for some new projects we are working on. I love mixing vintage pieces into our decor. Come to find out, the guy who sold them to us lives a few towns over from us. It was so random that we both came across each other in another state.
This flea market has so many different things that you can seriously spend hours there. Which we did, but it didn't feel long. They also have some stands with food and fresh fruit and veggies, so it's not all antiques. I'm really glad we got the chance to visit and I would definitely consider going back again.
2. Airstream Camping:
One of the main reasons we stopped at the elephant's trunk was because it was only about 35 minutes from where we were camping for the weekend. It's also where we took the boys fishing for the first time. In case you missed my post you can read more about our adventure here.
3. Rainbow Sweater:
With the exception of one hot and muggy day, our temps have really shown us that fall is here. I can't lie, I've been enjoying breaking out my sweaters and wearing a lighter jacket. I shared this rainbow sweater the other day and the story behind the boys helping me pick it out.
4. A's Reptile Party:
I still can't believe I'm going to have a five year old in a few days. How? Someone pinch me. It feels like I just brought this big eyed, full head of hair, smiling baby boy home from the hospital. As I mentioned, I've been in full on party mode over here. I love putting decor ideas together for parties, even though this week left me feeling like there aren't enough hours in a day. What I didn't realize is, how hard it is to find reptile related things. You can't just walk into party city or hobby lobby and find a reptile section. Nope, not happening. I'm really playing up more on the greens, browns, navy, and orange tones for this party and then will accent the critters in here and there. I'm hoping to share more on my insta stories so you can always follow along over there for some behind the scenes. Throwback pic from his first birthday party which is kind of my inspiration for his fifth party.
5. Favorite Moments From September:I know we all sound like a broken record but I seriously can't believe that we're at the end of the month and that I'm going to have a five year old in a few days. How did this happen? It's been a great month for us and one of my favorites out of the year. We've had some amazing things happen that I will share more about over time. For now, I thought it would be nice to look back and link some of our memories. We kicked off the month with our family trip to Cape May for my birthday weekend. We attended a diner en blanc pop up gala with some great friends and the boys started soccer. My sister and I made a trip out to Chicago to visit with our brother, and I hit my third trimester of pregnancy. We've dived into all things fall over here and look forward to crossing things off our bucket list. Before we know it baby boy will be here and it will make fall even more of a special time.
linking for all of the linkup fun!

Testing your webapp with device emulators
As mentioned in a previous post about page transitions in Backbone, I've been working a lot lately on a webapp. Because of this, I have a need to test on a bunch of (read: as many as I possibly can) devices. And while it would be ideal to have a dump truck of Android and iOS devices at my disposal, always charged and pointed at my local development URL, it's not entirely feasible for a single developer or a small team.
So… one of your first and best options is to start by testing in the emulators provided by Apple, Google and Mozilla as part of their development SDKs: Xcode, ADT (Android Developer Tools) and Firefox OS Simulator, respectively. Note: you won't be able to use the official iOS emulator unless you're on OSX, just in case that wasn't obvious.
Unsurprisingly, it's a fairly frictionless experience to get Apple's device emulator up and running, even if it is a bit buried in the utility folders of Xcode. The only dependency here is installing Xcode, which you can do easily from the App Store. If you're installing Xcode for the first time, allow some time for this, as the download is pretty hefty (we're talking a couple gigabytes).
Once you have Xcode installed, there are two ways to launch the emulator:
- Launch Xcode, and then on the menu bar open up
Xcode > Open Developer Tool > iOS Simulator.
- Launch via the command line with the grotesquely long path to the app:
open /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/Applications/iPhone\ Simulator.app
If you hate yourself you can commit this path to memory, or alternatively create an alias in your
.bash_profile, like this:
alias ios='[command from above]'
Or, if you happen to use Alfred and want to get real fancy, grab the simple workflow I made. The workflow does the same thing as the two methods above, but opens the app via Applescript instead.
Cool. Now you have the emulator open. The
Hardware item on your menu bar provides options for switching between devices (iPad or iPhone, retina, etc…) and rotating, while the
Debug menu allows you to simulate location. The only bummer here is that you don't have the ability to install apps from the iOS App Store, so you can really only test using Safari.
The need for testing on an Android emulator is what inspired this post, and in reality is possibly the most important platform for testing a webapp on. While it's miraculous and a joy to see how well transitions, animations and transforms perform on iOS devices in your webapp, it's often a different story when it comes to Android devices.
AVD (Android Virtual Devices)
To be honest, the original intent of this article was to walk through setting up the AVD emulator on OSX, but after running into issues myself, a fair bit of subsequent Googling and head-scratching, I ran across something far better thanks for Infinum's great blog post.
Genymobile, a company based in Paris, has been working on what they dub "the faster Android emulator", Genymotion. For comparison, during my attempts to get an AVD working, it took several minutes just to boot to the home screen of an emulated device, and interacting with it was almost impossible due to lag. It took me less time to install Genymotion, start to finish, and boot up my first device.
While Genymobile is offering paid versions of the app as well, the free version is essentially full-featured. After downloading the appropriate installer for your system, install the app as usual. If you're on OSX or Linux you'll need to separately install VirtualBox, which Genymotion uses in the background to spin up your virtual devices (they're basically putting a GUI on something that you could technically do on your own using VirtualBox and some patience).
With a little extra work you can even flash your emulated device to include Google's stock apps, enabling you to install apps from Google Play.
Firefox OS
The new player in the device world is Firefox OS. The neat thing here is that if you have Firefox installed for testing (and you do, right?) then you're only a click away from having the Firefox OS emulator. If you're using Firefox 25 or less, head to the Mozilla add-ons site and install the Firefox OS Simulator add-on. If you're updated, you should be at Firefox 26+, and the tool is now built into the developer tools as the "App Manager", though you'll still have to install an emulator, a painless process that you'll be gently guided through when you try to start an emulator for the first time.
For those using the Simulator add-on, you'll find it, on the toolbar, under
Tools > Web Developer > Firefox OS Simulator. Those with the packaged App Manager will find it, likewise, under
Tools > Web Developer > App Manager.
In either case, launching the tool brings you to the "Dashboard", which allows you to launch the Simulator, as well as "install" and debug apps, both packaged local apps or remotely hosted. The App Manager in Firefox 26+ also allows you to debug on your actual hardware device as detailed here. Once the device is up and running, you can run your own apps and test in the built-in browser.
Notable mention: Ripple Emulator
Ripple is a suite of tools for testing webapps within Google Chrome, and as such comes in the form of an extension. While the suite is still incredibly useful and fairly comprehensive, it should be noted that the extension hasn't been updated in some time (since March 8, 2013, as of this writing), and that the Chrome developer tools (and indeed, those of most major browsers) are quickly growing to encompass most of what you'll find in Ripple.
If you're using any additional tools to test your webapps, I'd love to know about them!

So you're planning a summer vacation with the family and will be renting a car when you arrive at your destination airport. You've done your shopping and received the best deal you could find on a vehicle big enough to carry you and that mountain of luggage that your spouse knows would be lonesome if you left any of it at home.
The clerk at the rental counter offers you the Collision (or Loss) Damage Waiver and suddenly, you begin to question whether you really need this coverage or if you can get by without it? You're inclined to take your chances... and save your hard-earned money. If you have full coverage on your personal auto policy it is quite likely that your physical damage coverage extends to this rental vehicle. That's a chance people have taken for years - but recently, many people are no longer taking this chance!
One insurance industry group published a paper awhile back titled "The Top 10 Reasons to Purchase the Rental Car CDW/LDW". Some of their reasons included Administrative Expenses and Loss of Rents. Who would think the administrative costs would be that high and unless all of their vehicles were rented, you could argue their loss of rents claim.
While it's true that if your auto policy includes comprehensive and collision coverage, you will likely have coverage for any damage you cause to a rental vehicle - subject to your deductible of course. What most people don't realize is that their auto policy does not provide coverage in the following situations:
For many, these are risks that aren't worth taking. If you fall into that category, plan to purchase the Collision (or Loss) Damage Waiver next time you're renting a car.

What to do if your teenage son gets a teen girl pregnant.
Finding out that your teen son has gotten a teen girl pregnant can be shocking. You need to take a deep breath before you truly deal with it. While your son will not have to worry about the physical problems of the pregnancy, you should encourage him to play a supportive role during and after the pregnancy. Here are a few tips you should do to prepare:
• Find out all of your teenage son's legal options and responsibilities during and after the pregnancy.
• Do not push marriage. Getting married for that reason alone is not in anyone's best interest.
• You will want to get in contact with the pregnant mother's parents, letting them know you wish to be kept informed and keep contact information.
• Arrange a paternity test after the baby is born.
• Talk to your son about what the expectations and responsibilities of fatherhood e.g. parenting and financial support.
Effective Activities to prevent teen pregnancy.
- If your child has a difficult time asking you questions, have him/her text you the question.
- Teach your child the HALTS concept - don't make any decisions when you are: Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired, or Sad.
- Discuss with your child the qualities of a good friend and help them to seek out those kinds of friends e.g. trust, respect etc.
- Foster a high level of confidence and self esteem to enable them to withstand peer pressure.
- Give your child money to call for a quick ride home with NO QUESTIONS ASKED!
- Have your child come in to say good- night when they arrive home. You can see, hear, and smell how they are really doing.
- Always tell your child and show him or her that you love them.
Improving the Odds to prevent teen pregnancy.
- Know who they're running with: Peer pressure can be bad - or good. Like adults, kids want to fit in; so get to know their friends (and their parents) to know what their values are.
- Keep them guessing: While you can't watch them 24/7, you can check in from time to time. With so many parents working, kids don't need to sneak off in the back seat of a car to get into trouble.
- Know what they're filling their minds with: Read the lyrics on their CDs and cassettes. Watch the shows and channels they watch. If you find something you don't like, let them know and discuss in a mutual conversation why you think that it's inappropriate.
- Model appropriate behavior: Times have changed since you were a kid, but the learning process is still the same. Children learn what they live and live what they learn.
- Be approachable: Take them out to a special dinner or find another quiet time to discuss their thoughts and feelings about the information presented on this web site. BE SURE TO LISTEN MORE THAN YOU TALK.
- Set limits: Kids get bored fast, so the earlier they start dating and the more you let them do, the more they will push the line.
- Teach respect: Kids need to be taught to respect themselves, and others - including members of the opposite sex.
- Teach responsibility: Prepare your child for the "real world" by showing them that their actions have consequences.
- Teach decision making skills: Have your kids practice making good choices on simple every day things. Then point out how their decision affects not only them, but others as well.
- Don't be afraid to be a parent: Kids are not little adults. They don't have your experience and are dependent on you for guidance. Even though they may act tough, they may just be protecting themselves or testing you to see if you really care.

JOHN Nolan is no stranger to saving lives.
In June, the 75-year-old, from Kirkby, risked his life to save a stranger from a burning house.
Three years earlier he saved a drowning woman from the sea while he was on holiday in Turkey.
Today the ECHO and Birmingham Midshires have chosen him as our latest Mersey Marvel.
John said: "It's a bit embarrassing really, I suppose I'm making a bit of a habit out of saving lives, they'll be calling me Super-man soon."
In June this year, the former maintenance worker at the Birdseye factory, in Kirkby, smashed his way into a ground-floor flat to rescue an unconscious man from a fire.
Mr Nolan had spotted the fire in Dalry Crescent while he was on his way to the doctors.
He said: "I saw the smoke and flames and a man lying on the floor.
"I jumped through the window, pulled the man out into the garden. By that time the flames were coming into the room but I wasn't thinking about that, I was acting on instinct."
Three years ago Mr Nolan dived into the sea to save a drowning woman while on a holiday pleasure cruise.
Birmingham Midshires managing director Dan Watkins said: "John has shown all the attributes of being a Mersey Marvel and deserves the accolade."
ECHO Editor Mark Dickinson added: "John is clearly a person who will risk his own safety to help complete strangers. That shows real courage and community spirit and sums up what Mersey Marvels is all about."

You have conditions…..
Christopher Colombus
We have been exposed to (whether we like it or not) explorers of yesteryear. Stories of great journeys across the sea, courageous men 'finding' already inhabited lands, the brutal history being passed down to many a generation. We have all sat hunched over a textbook whilst simultaneously inhaling a B.O infused classroom. We listened to an underpaid, pre-menopausal teacher with sensible shoes and an equal hatred for her pupils. We learned about men sailing the seven seas, navigating lands they were not familiar with, and murdering people they had just met. We imagined the terrain, the maps that would have been developed off the back of these expeditions and we really lapped it all up.
A Love letter to my Son
A love letter to my son
I have always wanted to write a letter to you. I am doing this before you ask me for the tenth biscuit. I wish I could ask the same question over and over again without getting tired, it really is an amazing feat. I have remembered to charge your iPad, the iPad to which you are currently attached to and at some point, I am going to ban you.
It is what it is
I used to hate this stupid fucking term. People would say it (I felt) when they did not have any answers. I think I get it now..sort of…maybe..not really.
The Church and I
"I grew up in a household of saints and Sinners, each of us swapped roles from day to day. Someday Saint, someday Sinner". A.Hylton
My immediate and extended family come from a long line of Sabbath Keepers. Even before I was thought of, my ancestors downed their tools on a Friday evening and watched for the golden sunset. They praised on the Sabbath and watched and waited for the Golden sunset once more. Before I knew myself my family knew God and were Seventh Day Adventists.
And here we are. I was bought up in a relatively 'normal' family. Mum, Dad, older brother and I …the wash belly (A Jamaican term for the last/youngest child).
Chapter 40
I was meant to put this post out on or around my 40th birthday. But in true Alison fashion, I am fashionably late and I don't care because …'I'm grown'. I have spent most of the last few days in a buzz of 40th splendour, basking in the 40th ray of light, and being 40 and fabulous.
Cosmic Queens
Today, I met many Queens, real life ones, and ones that were mounted in paintings. My cousin, Woman, Artist, Mother, and Queen spoke words into existence and they became real. On the 24th March 2018, I had the privilege of being part of Merissa Hylton's first exhibition entitled Cosmic Queens. The day was filled with music, drummers, friends, family, love and laughter. Many came together to support and encourage an extraordinary young woman in her dream. A beautiful day for a beautiful Queen.

Member for Currumbin, Jann Stuckey MP, is encouraging Currumbin school communities to build their sporting credentials by participating in a series of free accreditation and training courses.
Ms Stuckey said the Get Active Queensland Accreditation Program provided training for teachers, volunteers, tertiary and secondary students in a range of sports and recreational activities across the state. The program kicked off in Cairns in July.
"It was a great opportunity for members of the local community to learn some new skills and in turn share their knowledge to contribute to the development of sport and recreation in Cairns and now it's Currumbin's turn," Ms Stuckey said.
"The Newman Government's Get Active Queensland's free beginner-level training can ultimately lead to nationally recognised coaching, officiating and sports first aid accreditation.
"The more teachers and volunteers with these skills, the greater the asset they are to their local schools and communities.
"In addition to courses for sports strapping and first aid, participants can take part in a range of coaching courses including athletics, basketball, soccer, rugby league, swimming and water safety.
"We want all Queenslanders to get involved in sport from an early age and have access to sporting opportunities wherever they live in Queensland.
"That's why the Newman Government has committed to supporting them through our $16 million Get in the Game initiative.
"Get in the Game is about providing better equipment and facilities at the grassroots and giving children who might not otherwise be able to afford it the chance to get involved with sport.
"Our local focus could also inspire some of our future sporting stars. Students as young as 10 years old going to school today will be eligible to compete at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games."
"The courses will be held from 8:15am to 5pm on Saturday 18 August at Palm Beach Currumbin State High School, Thrower Drive, Currumbin.

Facts: The appellee was terminated from the Lovington Good Samaritan Center, Inc. on June 4, 1974. On June 12, 1974 Mrs. Mitchell applied for unemployment compensation benefits. She was initially disqualified from seven weeks of benefits by a deputy of the Unemployment Security Commission. Mrs. Mitchell then filed an appeal, and the Appeal Tribunal reversed the deputy's decision. Mrs. Mitchell's benefits were reinstated on August 28, 1974. On September 13, 1974 the Center appealed the decision made by the Appeal tribunal to the whole Commission.

Facts: Lucy Apodaca was employed with It's Burger Time, Inc., and during her time of employment there were no complaints concerning the performance of her work. Several times Apodaca inquired to the store manager about how the store owner would react if she were to dye her hair purple. Apparently, the manager never did ask him about the matter, and after several weeks Apodaca went ahead and dyed her hair. The owner saw Apodaca's hair for the first time two days later, and instructed the manager to give her a week whether she wanted to keep her hair color or her job. He stated that he could not wait for this incident to take a toll on his business. Apodaca had signed the company handbook upon being hired which instructed employees of acceptable hygiene and appearance. The handbook did not say anything about hair color. The manager

SHREVEPORT, La. – Centenary Lacrosse and head coach CJ Seling announced the spring 2019 schedule Tuesday, January 15.
The schedule features nine regular season games, four of which will be played in Bossier City, Louisiana.
"For the season, our motto is simply 'Good, better, best. Never let it rest 'till your good is better and your better is best," said Coach Seling. "That is what we are striving for this season. We cannot wait for February 2 to get here and we can get out on the field."
Centenary will play home the first two weekends. On February 2, they will take on the University of Incarnate Word at Freedom Fields in Bossier City. The following weekend, the Gents will host Dallas Baptist and Southeastern Louisiana for an invitational. Centenary takes on Dallas Baptist on Friday night, February 8, before battling Southeastern Louisiana Sunday morning, February 10, at Bossier High School. The Lions and Patriots square off on Saturday afternoon.
After three home games in the first two weekends, the Gents take on SCAC-foe Dallas on the road Saturday, February 23. The Gents host conference newcomer Johnson and Wales March 10 for their final home game.
To end the regular season, Centenary will play four road games. The Gents close out March with a road trip to southern Louisiana to take on Louisiana-Lafayette (March 15) and Tulane (March 16).
In April, the Gents travel east on I-20 to take on Louisiana Tech on the 14th before closing out the regular season on the 19th at Southwestern.
Centenary kicks off the season Saturday afternoon, February 2, at Freedom Fields in Bossier City against Incarnate Word. Game time is set for 3 p.m.

That's scary. Though at least you were laid back about it. Unlike when my father secretly followed me when I drove to my first teaching job. Which was just down Utopia, in North Flushing. About 15 minutes away. After we had "done the route together" several times, plus once in the dark and once trying to avoid left turns at stop signs. Aaaah, the neuroses we inevitably pass down.

Finally! The day we've all been waiting for! Ladies and gentlemen, Opening Day has finally arrived. It's been one long, hard winter, but winter is over, my friends. Spring Training is done. It goes down tonight at 8:00PM. Get ready to welcome the 2010 Boston Red Sox in Fenway Park! Oh, and we're playing the Yankees. Basically, this is the greatest baseball day ever in the past half-year or so.
There's only one minor snag: technically it's Opening Night, not Opening Day. I'm not calling it Opening Night. When ESPN wants its ratings, ESPN gets its ratings. Who cares about the fact that this is only the most important day in the daily lives of Red Sox Nation and an entire region of the United States, right? Ugh. ESPN. That's all I'm saying. And the worst part is that we can't even make a statement by engaging in the TV boycott that so many are suggesting because, let's face it, we've been baseball-starved for way too long and absolutely will not and can not miss Opening Day in Boston against the Yankees. And don't think ESPN doesn't know that. You just can't win with them. It's infuriating.
Speaking of ESPN, they hired Curt Schilling to do analysis on Baseball Tonight. Because apparently all former Sox stars must be employed immediately to do analysis on Baseball Tonight. Hey, at least they have good taste in teams.
The lineup: Ellsbury, Pedroia, V-Mart, Youk, Papi, Beltre, Drew, Cameron, Scutaro. Boom. Done. And I have to say, I like it. If Ellsbury can get going in the lead-off spot, we're golden. Can't go wrong with the one-two-three punch of Pedroia, V-Mart, and Youk. If Papi has a solid year, the first half of this lineup will be impenetrable. I really like Beltre separating Papi and Drew; that way, the opposition can't just throw a lefty in there. Cameron in eighth; no surprise there. And I like Scutaro in ninth because he'll give some punch to the bottom half of the order. When you have a decent hitter batting last, you lengthen your innings because there's no guaranteed out at the bottom, and you force a turnover.
The roster is done. Outfielders: Drew, Cameron, and Ellsbury, with Hermida as the spare man. Infielders: Youk, Pedroia, Beltre, Scutaro, and Lowell, with Hall as the spare man. Catchers are V-Mart and Tek, obviously. We know the rotation is Beckett, Lester, Lackey, Wake, and Buchholz. Beckett's got the speed, Lester is the model southpaw, Lackey throws the first-pitch strike, Wake has the knuckleball, and Buchholz throws off-speeds like nobody's business. (Provided he's on.)
The bullpen includes Ramon Ramirez, Paps, Bard, Okajima, and Delcarmen, with Schoeneweis and Atchison earning the final two spots. Hey, if they earn them, they earn them. And it hasn't been easy. Schoeneweis's wife died last year, and Atchison returned from Japan to get better medical care for his daughter. Good luck to both of them, and we salute you.
This was the last week of Spring Training, the last week of tune-ups, so any last-minute kinks had to have been worked out by today. None of our arms disappointed. Everyone looks primed and ready for actions, if you ask me. I can't wait to unleash this rotation on the rest of the league. We're talking epic domination this season.
Lester finished up on Wednesday. One run on three hits in seven innings say he's good to go. V-Mart went hard twice, Frandsen (who knew?) blasted a grand slam, and Pedroia went three for five.
Lackey had his final tune-up on Thursday; one run on six hits over five. That's kind of a high hit total for Lackey, but one run makes it hard to argue. Delcarmen struggled; Schoeneweis pitched a scoreless inning. Scutaro, Tek, and Lowell all had a good day; it was the first time Lowell played in back-to-back games this spring, and he was actually pretty decent.
On Friday, Buchholz allayed concerns with a solid set of six innings; one run on two hits, and that was it. Paps's ninth was scoreless; Bard sent down his two batters in quick succession. Tek smacked a three-run double; Ortiz smacked a double of his own. Reddick's Grapefruit League average is now .404. Really, it's a shame he's back in the minors. That kid's got Major Leagues written all over him.
Wake pitched himself four shutout frames yesterday. The only trouble he had was back-to-back singles with one out. If that's the only kind of trouble he has all season, I think we're good. He finishes Spring Training with a 3.04 ERA. Surgery? What surgery? Dice-K relieved him for four solid frames. That's what I call encouraging. I would've preferred that Dice-K not have walked three batters, but this is no time to be picky. Youk and Drew went yard.
Hermida's back in action as of Friday. Ellsbury rested his throwing shoulder this past week, so I expect some serious firing from left. Youk fouled a ball off his knee on Wednesday, but he's fine. Ortiz was scratched on Thursday with a stiff neck but came back on Friday. Junichi Tazawa is out for the season; he needs Tommy John surgery. We're getting close to a contract extension with Beckett that would keep him here through 2014 for $68 million.
Basically, what it comes down to is the fact that we're going to win tonight. At least, we all hope so, and you know how it is in Boston. You gotta believe. But seriously, objectively speaking, I think we're better. Just take it position by position. Our rotation is very obviously better. Our bullpen is clearly better. Our outfield is clearly better. Most of our infield is better. Our catchers are better. We're just better. The great part is that that has nothing to do with keeping the faith; that's just a verifiable fact. Which will be proven tonight. Let's get this season started right.
Two wins and two losses this week for the Bruins. We're seventh in the conference, two behind the Habs and two above the Flyers. It's better than being seeded last, but let's overtake the Habs if we can.

On June 30th 2009, when I retired as Chancellor of The University of Mississippi, I made a commitment to avoid any public comments regarding the IHL Board, Ole Miss, our Medical Center, and the other universities in the state. I moved my office off campus to the UM Foundation which I used infrequently. I have tried to stay out of the way.
However, as one who served for 14 years as Chancellor I feel morally bound to comment on the IIHL Board's decision regarding the non-renewal of the contract of Chancellor Dan Jones. I believe the Board's decision in this matter is egregious and a major mistake.
Sam Hall's editorial in the Sunday opinion section of The Clarion-Ledger tells most of the story. I thank and commend him for candidly and courageously expressing his thoughts and stating facts regarding the quality of leadership provided by Chancellor Jones for six years. However, I need to clarify one point. Sam Hall and others think that I anointed Dan Jones as my successor. That simply is not the truth.
» READ MORE: DAVID DALLAS — From Dan and Dixie with love
When asked by friends and Ole Miss alumni if I thought Dan Jones could "do the job" my answer was yes. I can, without hesitation, say my answer was correct. Dan has not only done the job, he has provided enlightened, courageous leadership and moved the university, including the Medical Center, to levels of performance and respect never before reached.
Any objective measure of the movement forward and upward of the University under his leadership demonstrates the remarkable progress our university has made. A university leader must have integrity, vision, courage, a strong staff, and a thick skin. Chancellor Jones has those positive qualities and others. He and First Lady Lydia Jones have given the last six years of their lives to Ole Miss and to Mississippi.
Since the Board press release laid the decision on "concerns about the Medical Center" it may be helpful if I provide a little information on that subject. When I appointed – and the IHL Board approved – Dan as Vice Chancellor for Medical Affairs and Dean of the School of Medicine, he confronted great challenges in the UMMC Hospital. The physical facilities needed attention, and morale and the reputation of the Center were dire. Dan immediately selected a management team, a new director of the hospital, and led a change in the culture from acceptance of mediocrity (or worse) to aspirations to become excellent and nationally respected. From the financial difficulties and quality of health care and research he inherited, he and his team changed the culture, balanced the books, became profitable, and sailed through at least two independent audits ordered by the Board.
The truth is that former Commissioner Hank Bounds (now moved to Nebraska) and then Vice Chancellor Jones disagreed about management of the Medical Center. Hank, an Education major, did not have the background and experience to begin to understand the Medical Center. And to be fair I must tell you that not a single Chancellor, including me, other than Dan Jones ever fully understood the intricacies of the operation of the complex world of medicine.
I spent one day a week at UMMC for 14 years and have, at best, a superficial understanding of the Center. Dr. Jones is the only Chancellor in my lifetime who understands the medical center. And the Medical Center prospered under his leadership.
Perhaps this insensitive deed – clearly motivated by personal and/or political reasons and not on performance – will prompt someone in a leadership position to initiate a move to transform the current dysfunctional and wasteful IHL system and authorize each university to have its own board.
Clearly the current model is a failure.
Robert C. Khayat is Chancellor Emeritus of the University of Mississippi.

Your business uses the vehicle while paying a rental rather than a repayment. The monthly rental is determined by the initial cost of the vehicle (excluding VAT), the period of the finance lease and the residual value (the estimated future value of the vehicle at the end of the finance lease period once depreciation is taken into account), plus interest.
Although you never take ownership, at the end of the finance lease contract a payment equivalent to the residual value is payable. Usually this means that the vehicle is sold and a proportion of the proceeds of the sale are returned to the lessee.
Most finance lease companies will offer a number of payment options to suit your cash flow. You can lower the monthly rental with a balloon payment at the end of the contract, or you can pay the entire cost in monthly rentals (normally referred to as a fully amortised Finance Lease), in which case you may be able to extend the finance lease with a secondary rental (sometimes called a peppercorn rental).

In general, the speed of searching i.e. finding matching docs will not be affected by the number of stored fields but retrieving data from lots of stored fields will certainly take longer than retrieving data from fewer stored fields. Only index the fields you need to search on and only store the fields you need to retrieve. If you only need to retrieve some of the stored fields use a FieldSelector. http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/ImproveSearchingSpeed has good info on making searching fast. -- Ian.

>Are we blogging our writing away?Posted: September 30, 2008 Filed under: blogs, Chattahoochee Writers Conference, selling article reprints, The Scriptorium Leave a comment
>Recently a correspondent sent me a link to her blog. It is a beautiful blog, filled with terrific articles and photos, the kind I'd like to see in a good newspaper. She is working on getting paid assignments, but meanwhile, I worry that she's giving the good stuff away. Every freelancer ought to know that most publishers consider material that has been placed on a writer's blog or website as published. Used goods. If they don't take reprints, they won't consider the work at all. Perhaps you can do a revision that makes it a new story, but beware of giving away articles that you could sell for money. Your ideas and articles are your inventory, and your time and energy is limited.
Now why, you might ask, do I publish two blogs? Why does anyone do blogs? Some people are just happy to express themselves online. But I'll be honest. I'm hoping to draw attention to my books and classes, as well as my website. I also love to teach and this blog allows me to do that. After every live class, I come home chattering to myself about all the other things I could have said. The same applies to my book. There's always so much more to say, so I blog to keep the conversation going and to bring things up to date.
What's my other blog? Childless by Marriage, part plug and part research for the book I'm currently working on. Having to write something every week keeps me on task, and it does draw some attention, which in this business is vital to success. If you want to publish books, you've got to have a platform, and a blog is part of that.
So blog away to advance your career, share your experiences and opinions, or simply because it makes you happy. Just beware of giving away the store. Before you put it into a blog, ask yourself: Could I sell this as an article? If so, offer only a small taste, not the whole entrée, or blog about something else.
>Question about reselling stories to other marketsPosted: May 6, 2008 Filed under: ASJA Guide, Renegade Writer, selling article reprints, Writer's Market, writing-world.com Leave a comment
>I'm double-posting today to answer a question from a writer named Susan, who had some questions for me:
" I enjoyed reading your piece, "Newspapers: A Great Source of Freelance Opportunities."
I've taken the opportunity to sell work I've done to newspapers, primarily because I've found it a very comfortable relationship.
Since I reside in both Florida and Illinois, one line in your piece was of particular interest, " and the Chicago Tribune pays from $150 to $500 for travel articles–which you could resell to the L.A. Times or the Miami Herald…."
I haven't written travel articles, I write health features, but why did you specifically mention the Times or the Herald for resale, and how would I go about reselling pieces I've done for the Trib?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
That I mentioned those particular papers was simply a matter of having the information and being impressed at their rates. In other words, it's a coincidence that they happen to be the papers from where you live.
That said, you can resell any type of article, not just travel articles, as long as you have not given up all rights and your story fits the mission of papers you're aiming for.
Let's talk about rights. Ideally, you signed a contract for your work, but if not, you should have an e-mail, letter or at least a verbal agreement as to what rights the first publication is buying. Don't accept an assignment without knowing what rights you're giving up. In the best situation, they only ask for first rights or claim exclusive rights for a limited period of time, which allows you to offer reprint rights elsewhere.
Some papers buy all rights. You can try to negotiate a change in that clause, but if you don't succeed, all is not lost. You can still write a new article using much of the same information but adding new material to fit the new market. Or you can go at the story from a different angle, making it a whole new piece.
Approach the new publication in much the same way as the first one. E-mail a query or send the whole story, making sure you mention where it ran before. Most publications pay less for reprints, but it still adds to the total you can make from that story.
A couple of cautions with newspaper reprints:
Most papers put a lot of their content online. If your story is going to be on the Internet indefinitely, that may harm your chances of republishing it elsewhere.
Many papers are part of conglomerates that own several newspapers. They often share content. Try not to offer reprints to papers in the same family.
I hope that answers some of your questions. There's more information in my Freelancing for Newspapers book, as well as in Writer's Market, at Writing-World.com and other sites for writers. I also recommend The Renegade Writer and The ASJA Guide to Freelance Writing, both wonderful books.

2. Invest in some times tables board games or card games
Take a look in your local book shop or online shops for maths learning games. Some good examples are Mrs J's Brilliant Tables Game (nothing to do with me!), Times Tables Swat and Times Tables Snap. You can also play with a normal deck of cards: split the pack between two and play as if it were "Snap!". Instead of shouting snap when you get the same number, the first person to shout the correct answer to the product of the two numbers wins. For example, if I turn over a 4 and you turn over a 2, the first to shout "8!" adds both cards to their hand.
3. Practise your tables during everyday activities
Try not to treat tables practice as if it were homework. Practise during normal, everyday activities, such as on the walk to school, over breakfast or during the adverts on TV.
5. Don't forget to practise your divisions!
Learning "4 divided by 2 equals 2" is just as important as learning "2 times 2 equals 4". In fact, it will strengthen your understanding of your times tables. If you're testing someone on their tables, throw in some division questions now and again.
How do you like to practise your tables?

Make sure you learn the exceptions to each spelling rule. An oft-quoted rule is "I before E except after C". You'll need to learn the exceptions to avoid tripping up. There's no easy way to learn these exceptions.
Examples: height, weird
It can sometimes be helpful to break the word into syllables to help you remember the spelling. Many people get confused with the word "several" because it looks and sounds similar to "separate". You could remember "several" by breaking it down into "sev-ER-al". "Desperate" is another tricky one because it sounds as though it should be spelt in the same way as "separate".
Internet forums and social networking sites are a hotbed of poor spelling and grammar. People make less effort with spelling and grammar when they're on the internet. You may end up learning incorrect spellings without even realising it. Try to limit your exposure to English to high-quality written sources.
This is a fun one. If you're trying to learn a particular word, look at the correct spelling first, then try writing it down with your eyes closed! It's fun to see what your writing comes out like, but it also helps your brain to remember the action of writing the word.
My final tip is my favourite one. Take care when you're practising the spelling of a word. Use a nice pen. Write it slowly. Create a doodle around the word. Paint it. Draw in bubble letters… Anything like this will help your brain to remember the process of spelling a word. Plus, it's a nice relaxing way to practise!
How do you practise your spellings? Have you tried any of these techniques?

Nutratopic Pro-AMP Bath Gel and Body Lotion
Daily hygiene and hydration for extended control of atopic skin
Estás a punto de abandonar la web de ISDIN para ir a un espacio privado para profesionales de la salud. ¿Quieres continuar?
Daily hygiene and hydration for extended control of atopic skin
Use of specific soap-free products with minimal degreasing agents and a neutral pH, are particularly important in looking after atopic skin as they allow itch-free daily cleansing.
The Nutratopic Emollient Bath Gel formula, rich in essential oils (18%), is especially designed not to damage the skin's barrier function and to prevent dry skin. For daily hygiene with no irritation or itchiness.
In a study of 30 volunteers with a history of mild atopic dermatitis or in remission, we assessed clinical safety, hydration and smoothness after the daily use of a specific syndet for atopic dermatitis (Nutratopic Bath Gel).
"Hygiene is important and combating staphylococcus is important, but with products that do not irritate the skin. The ideal product must have an appropriate pH, not contain substances with a high risk of allergenicity, ideally emollient agents…" Eulalia Baselga, MD - Dermatologist Head of Clinical Dermatology Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau
It is important to moisturise the entire body after your daily bath. Emollient body lotion enables the product to be easily applied gently all over the body.
It's more than just moisturisation: it's moisturisation + protection. It helps the skin recover its protective barrier function. It smoothes and protects the skin as well as effectively controlling inflammation and eczema.
Did you know that hydration is the 1st line strategy in atopic skin management?
Most atopic skincare should aim to hydrate the skin with emollients that help to restore the skin's barrier function and to reduce the onset of outbreaks.
UThe daily application of emollients reduces the appearance of signs associated with atopic skin and improves the patient's quality of life.

Free is good, right? Do you remember how you felt the first time you installed a free utility on your Mac and it turned out to be great?
Free Mac software is alive and well despite the Mac's continued sales growth. Here's my Friday list of six Mac utilities—tools every Mac user needs, and will love.
There are hundreds of excellent free Mac software titles available. Mac users on a budget will appreciate the wide variety of tools that can be applied to so many different jobs.
What are the top Mac utilities that every Mac user should have? They're utilitarian, seemingly innocuous, yet indispensable. They range from obscure to invaluable.
These are Mac utilities that I keep on my Mac and use regularly. Each has a free competitor. Each has a commercial competitor. Yet, each stands alone as the best in their respective categories.
One of my favorite Mac utilities is Skype. It's iChat for the masses, offering chat capability, Mac to PC audio and video, even direct dialing to a telephone land line. Skype didn't make the cut.
True, there's Thunderbird and Firefox from Mozilla. Many Mac users have both as excellent alternatives to Apple's own Mail and Safari.
Firefox's ubiquity speaks for itself. Neither made my list.
One of the most common commercial applications on the Mac is Microsoft's venerable and powerful Office. Not only is it compatible with Windows Office, Mac Office is loved by millions of Mac users.
Maybe NeoOffice, the OpenOffice Microsoft Office compatible suite should be on the list. After all, NeoOffice is free and powerful. Nope. Sorry.
#6 – Handbrake
Your Mac is a good place to play DVD movies. Without Handbrake, your Mac just plays DVDs.
With Handbrake, "an open source, GPL-licensed, multi platform, multithreaded DVD to MPEG4 converter," your Mac becomes a collector of DVDs, ready for export to your iPod or iPhone.
Simply put, use Handbrake to make copies of your DVD movies, including those with CSS protection methods.
#5 – Transmission
Are there other sources of movies besides the DVDs you buy at Walmart?
Enter the world of bit torrent, a euphemism for a new way to share files; peer-to-peer, if you will. Transmission is one of many Mac utilities which let you, uh, um, "share" files from others and to others.
Transmission is like most good Mac utilities. It just works. It's fast, doesn't hog your Mac's processor, and basic settings get you up and ready to uh, um, share files online within a minute.
#4 – AppleJack
Amazingly, sometimes your Mac gets all wonky and the reasons can be many. What do you do?
There are kinds of tests to perform. Open Disk Utility and repair permissions or validate a hard drive. What if you can't even start your Mac or Disk Utility won't launch.
Hey, it happens. That's what makes AppleJack so good. It does absolutely nothing—until nothing else works.
AppleJack is what you use to start up your Mac when all else fails, then run those special tasks which are essential to finding out what's wrong with your Mac and fixing it.
#3 – PTH Pasteboard
One of the benefits of cutting and pasting is the ability to transfer information from here to there in an instant. However, cut or copy and paste can be tedious and troublesome.
How many times have we copied something, then pasted, and realized we had copied the wrong thing, and the original copy was deleted? It happens.
With PTH Pasteboard, your Mac gets multiple clip boards. That means everything you copy gets saved; text, formulas, graphics, URls, whatever. This should be built in to OS X.
#2 – Onyx
The Mac has a dozen utilities which provide various maintenance chores, and Onyx is one of many. Still free after all these years.
What sets Onyx apart is the ease of use of each function, and the thoroughness with which Onyx works on all Macs from Jaguar to Panther, and Tiger to Leopard. Unhiding hidden system preferences is easy.
Honorable mention should go to the similar TinkerTool, also free, also indispensable.
#1 – Tie: Pastor & Carbon Copy Cloner
Sorry, it's just not easy to come up with one single free Mac utility that tops all others, but these come so close, they make the top of the list.
We live in perilous times with security issues of prime concern for Mac users. Pastor is a simple utility to master, a tool that stores all of your passwords, login IDs, and serial numbers. Safely. Securely. Encrypted.
There are dozens of similar utilities for Mac users, some free, some not so much. If your budget is limited Pastor will not disappoint.
As important as secure information is, it doesn't mean much if your Mac's hard drive dies a quick and sudden death. It happens.
Carbon Copy Cloner helps put your mind at ease with block-level back ups—clones—of your Mac's hard drive to another hard drive. The first back up takes awhile. Subsequent incremental back ups go quickly.
CCC is so good that your back up hard drive can be used to start up your Mac. It's bootable. Back up to another Mac, or across the network, or to another hard drive, or simply to a disk image.
Use the scheduler to perform the back up when you're not sitting in front of your Mac. Set it. Forget it.
I know, I know. That's actually seven top free utilities, with a couple of honorable mentions thrown in. Hey, chalk it up to the inflationary times in which we live.
I'm sure you have a favorite Mac utilities which didn't make my list. Enlighten me and other Mac360 readers and share your favorite in the Comments section below.

As Dr. Greenblatt states in the Introduction, old age has always been with us; there is only more of it now. Some 20 million Americans, or 10% of the population, have reached the age of retirement, with its unique social and physiologic problems. When studying the physiologic alterations produced by aging, it is usually impossible to differentiate between the efficient performance of young and old organs while at rest and not under stress. Nevertheless, the reserve capacity of many body systems becomes impaired with age, and the tests that have been developed are usually aimed at detecting such deficiencies by

Settling a divorce in Florida through mediation offers you several potential advantages over a traditional divorce proceeding in court. We at the law office of Michael E. Golub have found that mediation typically proceeds more quickly than a court case, is less expensive, fosters a cooperative atmosphere to avoid an adversarial environment and preserves communication on all sides.
Because divorce involves the end of an intimate relationship, there are personal matters that may arise which you may prefer to keep confidential, even from your spouse. While a divorce mediator works with both parties at the same time, it is not always necessary or desired for both parties to be in the same room during the mediation. If it is the case that your spouse and his or her representative are not in the same room and you give information to the mediator that you do not want the other party to know, you would need to inform the mediator that the information is to remain confidential. Be aware, however, that any information included in the final agreement will become part of the public record once filed with the court.
Your concern may not be keeping confidential information from your spouse but ensuring that the mediation proceedings do not become known to the outside world. You can rest easy on that score, as everything discussed during mediation is confidential. Your mediator cannot testify in court as to information disclosed in mediation, and there are rules that prevent the mediator from talking about the situation with anyone outside of the mediation.
However, there are legal limits to confidentiality. By law, your mediator must report if someone expresses an intent to commit a crime. Similarly, your mediator must refer reports of abuse of a vulnerable person, such as an elderly adult or a child, to the appropriate agency.
Mediating your divorce to work out any unresolved issues before filing sometimes means that your attorney can file an uncontested divorce. More information about divorce mediation is available on our website.


text: The villagers climbed into third spot with an eight-wicket triumph against second-placed Biggleswade. Tuffin finished 136no and skipper Mitchell Newman was unbeaten on 50 as Upwood cruised past their visitors effort of 236. Warboys put their Division Three promotion mission back on track with an eight-wicket success at Orton Park 2nds in a shortened clash. The Peterborough hosts reached 122-4 in the 20\/20 contest but Josh England (60no) and Ashley Morris (46no) ensured Warboys eased to victory with two-and-a-half overs to spare. Third-placed Ramsey 3rds went down by eight wickets at Newborough 2nds but it is a game that will live long in the memory of Jack Hodgson. The Ramsey youngster hit an unbeaten 49 in his first senior outing at the age of 12 to help his side to 159-6, but that tally proved insufficient. Hemingford Park continued their rapid Division Four rise with a fourth win in five games. Neil McPhee (4-21) and Julian Hale (retired on 61) were their stand-out performers in an eight-wicket romp at Burghley Park 2nds in another 20 overs-per-side game. Bramptons recent form at that level is far less inspiring. They have slumped to four successive defeats. The latest setback came at Peterborough side Werrington last Saturday in somewhat unusual circumstances as Brampton declared at 81-5 only 14 overs into their innings. The home side then cruised to a nine-wicket victory. A fine display from Jonathan Mews (50 and 3-48) was not enough to prevent Buckden from going down by 96 runs to new Division One leaders AK XI. Ramsey 2nds came up 23 runs short at second-placed Bharat Sports. TJ Hardings fine 4-34 figures helped remove the hosts for 195 before Jacob Castle top-scored with 44 as the Ramsey side reached 172 in reply. Eaton Socon 2nds went down by four wickets at Orton Park in a 30-over contest but their Development side fared much better the following day when going top of Division Five. St Neots Town FC chairman Barry Cavilla hit an unbeaten 45 to steer an Eaton Socon side - containing plenty of youngsters and the odd veteran performer - to an eight-wicket triumph against Papworth.

Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Screening
(DIC Screening)
DIC is a serious blood clotting abnormality that usually occurs as the result of extensive trauma or surgery, total body infection (septicemia), extensive burns, or blood transfusion reactions. Numerous tiny blood clots form in the small capillaries throughout the body. These clots use up all of the available fibrin, a blood component necessary for normal clot formation, which results in increased bleeding with no available clotting products. Tissue and organ damage occurs from the numerous tiny clots blocking normal blood circulation. The following blood tests make up the DIC Screening Panel:
Coagulating Factors
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
Fibrinopeptide A
Fibrin Split Products
Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT)
Platelet Count
Prothrombin Fragment
Prothrombin Time (PT)

Humane society reminds residents to take care of pets during cold weather
Last updated 1/2/2019 at 6:47pm
SAN DIEGO - The San Diego Humane Society reminded residents today to ensure their pets' well-being during cold weather.
The National Weather Service issued a freeze warning in San Diego County from 10 tonight to 8 a.m. Thursday. Temperatures could drop to as low as 26 degrees in parts of the county, according to the NWS.
Because of the sub-freezing temperatures, SDHS officials recommend taking multiple steps to protect pets. Residents are advised to keep their pets inside throughout the freeze warning and give them plenty of food, allowing them to generate heat. Horses and other livestock require access to warm bedding, a windbreak, abundant feed and fresh water.
"Even if you're out walking your dogs, a lot of dogs like to benefit from having a sweater or a little coat on,'' said Andy Blue, director of the Humane Society's Escondido campus. "Especially small dogs that don't have a whole lot of fur, it's important that you've got jackets for them. ... Horses, goats, pigs, those animals also are not as tolerant as you would think to the cold weather.''
Residents are also advised to take caution when using antifreeze, which is poisonous to animals, and starting a car's engine. According to the SDHS, stray animals such as feral cats can crawl under a vehicle's hood in search of warmth. Motorists should bang on their hood to scare animals into coming out of their hiding place before driving off.
