Just like so many other areas of our health, our immune system has its own unique set of needs and requirements to function properly and provide optimal support and prevention throughout the year. Although it is nearly impossible to guarantee that we won't be susceptible to a specific germ, virus, or illness, we can take preventative measures to do the best we can to be prepared. When it comes to germs and viruses, there are several things that we need to consider in addition to just taking supplements or medications.
Washing hands, sanitizing surfaces in our homes and workplaces, being mindful of passing and receiving germs with others, getting adequate rest, drinking plenty of water, exercising regularly, eating a nutrient-rich whole foods diet, reducing stress and other daily choices can be powerful tools in living a life focused on REAL HEALTH. These practices also help our body to remain strong, well-fueled, and more capable of fighting off unwanted sicknesses.

Virtual Appointments with a Riordan Clinic Provider
We recommend that our regularly scheduled patients KEEP THEIR APPOINTMENTS… but try to convert them to either phone, Zoom (video call), or some other virtual mode. Once again, this reduces everyone's risk of exposure. Please call our office to arrange this.
If you are not yet a patient of the Riordan Clinic and would like to speak to one of our providers, please contact any of our offices to arrange a consultation by phone. We would like to make our providers available to as many people as have questions so we are foregoing our regular new patient programs at this time. The cost of appointments and details about billing, etc, can be answered by calling one of our three offices. Thank you and we look forward to being your partners in REAL HEALTH!

A message about virtual appointments:
The coronavirus has changed how we interact with others. We know that the primary transmission of the virus is respiratory droplet and we also know many carriers of the virus may be asymptomatic and not know they have it. We have to behave as though another person may be that asymptomatic carrier and we want to protect our own health; similarly, we could be that asymptomatic carrier and don't want to infect others.
This has implications for the doctor-patient relationship, particularly in a setting such as ours where the patient may be face-to-face with a provider in a confined space for an extended period of time. Most viral infections are dose-dependent. The longer the exposure, the greater likelihood of infection.
Fortunately, this does not mean we must dissolve our doctor-patient relationship. Most practices now offer telemedicine as an alternative to in-person visits. In fact, the Kansas State Department of Health is promoting this as a safer alternative. Patients who have a telemedicine visit will find a number of positive outcomes.
- First and most obviously, with the technology available today the patient can receive quality care in a zero-risk environment. No exposure risk for you. Also, the less foot traffic through the clinic, the less exposure to the patients who must come in for treatment (many of whom may be immune-compromised) and to the staff.
- Secondly, you don't need to commute to have your visit. You can have your visit in the privacy of your own home, saving the expense and hassle of driving. And fewer cars on the road means a healthier environment!
- Third, for many of the issues we address, a hands-on physical exam is rarely needed and will not contribute to the diagnostic or treatment process. When necessary, many aspects of a physical exam can be conducted in a virtual visit.
Telemedicine visits can be via phone or video with Zoom. With a Zoom visit, the office will simply schedule the visit, send you an email with a link that you click on at the appointment time and you will automatically be in a video face-to-face visit with your provider. You can do this on your computer, tablet or even your phone if it has video capability. Even if you want an IV, you can have your visit with the provider through Telemedicine and come in for your treatment later, again minimizing exposure.
We recommend unless you need to come in for a treatment, try Telemedicine. We know you will find it as good as a visit in person; and in this environment, it is even superior. Join the others who have found this a safe, convenient way to enjoy quality care.

PUTRAJAYA: The government today agreed to retain the electricity tariff rebate of 1.52 sen/kWh in the peninsula and to continue reducing the average electricity tariff of 1.20 sen/kWh in Sabah and the Federal Territory of Labuan for the period July 1 to Dec 31 this year as enjoyed in the past six months.
Energy, Green Technology and Water Minister Maximus Ongkili said following this, there would be no change in the electricity tariff rate imposed on consumers in the peninsula, Sabah and Federal Territory of Labuan for the period of July 1 until Dec 31.
For the peninsula, he said a 1.52 sen/kWh rebate involved an overall cost of RM758.03 million obtained via a tariff review under the Imbalance Cost Pass-Through (ICPT) mechanism for the period Jan 1 to June 30 this year.
"Among the factors which contributed to the granting of rebate is the drop in the price of liquified natural gas (LNG) and coal in the world market and the improvement in the efficiency of coal generation plants," he told a media conference here, today.
Ongkili said in the government's effort to reduce the fuel subsidy, the tariff review also took into account the review of piped gas prices in the peninsula which was raised by RM1.50/MMBtu from RM18.20/MMBtu to RM19.70/MMBtu effective July 1.
On the reduction of the average tariff rate, which was maintained at 1.20 sen/kWh ini Sabah and Labuan, he said it involved the offering of a subsidy for medium fuel oil and diesel and electricity tariff support subsidy, estimated at RM468 million for this year.
Ongkili said the electricity tariff rebate was given to all categories of Tenaga Nasional Bhd consumers in the peninsula and Sabah Electricity Sdn Bhd in Sabah, except domestic consumers who used electricity units of 300kWh and below a month, as consumers in this category were not involved with any electricity tariff increase since Jan 1, 2014.
"The government has formulated protective measures in the electricity tariff structure to reduce the burden of consumers on the subsidy rationalisation of piped gas cost," he said.
He stressed that domestic consumers with usage units of 300kWh and below were not involved in any tariff increase, goods and service tax and Feed-in Tariff charge.
In addition, he said, the electricity bill payment exemption for consumption of RM20 and below was given to domestic consumers in the peninsula, Sabah and Sarawak.
Commercial and industrial users with electricity costs of at least 5% of overall company operation costs qualified for the Special Industry Tariff (TIK) and received discounts of between 3% and 10%.
"Still, TIK will be reduced in stages from 2016 and the Enhanced Time of Use tariff is introduced as a choice to commercial and industry users from Jan 1, 2016," he said.
Ongkili added that a 10% discount would also be given in the monthly bill to government schools, government higher institutions of education, houses of worship and welfare institutions registered with the government.

She looked at me, and I understood I sounded like an individual about to admit to syphilis or something.So, she assisted me undress, and I was naked in front of my 2nd escort in a month. Considering her age, it was impressive how cigarette smoking she was, although both time and previous horniness may be assisting me decorate the memory a bit.

" Hi, is that Misty?".
I had actually driven fairly far to get there, and I didn't actually desire to go to the effort of strolling out and discovering somebody else. I was going to get laid, and this was right in front of me.
Battling my nerves, I chose to capitalise on the scenario.

" Hey there?".
And after that a brand-new feeling that took a minute for me to determine: she was rubbing her pussy up and down my back and butts. It was hot and had a tip of perspiring. These experiences made me nearly lose a load right then and there, however in some way, I hung on.

She revealed me in and took me to the bed room, where the bed was made, and a bag of goodies was on the side table. I might see damp wipes, prophylactics, lube, and some other things that help in adult playtime. She began making discussion: what's my name?
It likewise assisted my penis grow more difficult under my stubborn belly as she began to rub her tits on my back. She then rubbed her body up and down my back, dragging her tits all over my back and ass.
I had actually chosen that while Dark Angel was great enough, I felt rather ashamed that she had actually been my. Possibly this fully grown woman would take pity on me if I declared to still be a virgin, possibly she would reveal me the ropes and make me a genuine male.
I was a little tossed when again when I got there. Look, she wasn't really unsightly, however the shock of the inconsistency in between expectation and truth was enough to thwart my extreme horniness for a minute.
Perhaps she ought to have likewise consisted of the truth that she had actually most likely been smoking fifty cigarettes a day considering that she was 6. In spite of this, I pressed ahead fearlessly, encouraged by my raving hormonal agents and hurting balls.
" Oh, hi. I, uh, I want to learn what your services and rates are please," I stammered, a little tossed.

It's the T-shirt every adrenaline junkie passing through Bolivia wants: "I survived the World's Most Dangerous Road." In the hostels of La Paz, Bolivia's breathtaking administrative capital city, and on the Gringo Trail throughout South America, the T-shirt provides instant bragging rights for the wearer, despite its ubiquity. It's the prize for mountain biking from La Paz to Coroico down the North Yungas Road, otherwise known as El Camino de la Muerte, or the "Death Road."
But why – you might rightly ask – why did over 25,000 thrill seekers risk their lives travelling down the Death Road in the last year alone? After all, the dizzying high-altitude outpost of La Paz remains well-stocked with options for those craving excitement; at 3,660 metres in elevation, a walk amongst the sky-high labyrinthine streets and local markets can become a breathless challenge in itself! Nearby, looming mountains and glaciers entice outdoor enthusiasts, whilst nightlife junkies can dine out and guzzle on at the infamous cocaine bar, called Route 36, and the city's never-ending party scene. So what makes the Death Road so enticing?
Originating at the 4,650-metre La Cumbra pass, the road connects La Paz to northern Bolivia's Amazon, descending through 69 kilometres (43 miles) of awe-inspiring rainforest scenery to arrive at the sleepy town of Coroico. The road itself is no wider than 3.2 metres at any stage and the lack of guardrails covering the 600-metre precipitous drops means that there is no room for error when negotiating its hairpin bends.
Sadly, accidents on the road have been commonplace. On 24 July 1983, a tourist bus fell into the canyon and over 100 passengers died in Bolivia's worst ever road accident. The road eventually achieved its worldwide notoriety in 1995 when the Inter-American Bank christened it "The World's Most Dangerous Road." According to one estimate, it has claimed between 200 and 300 lives per year.
Then, in 1998, Kiwi backpacker Alistair Matthew and a British friend raced down the road and revelled in the intoxicating combination of beautiful scenery and imminent danger. He then started the first company, Gravity Assisted Mountain Biking, to offer tourists the chance to cycle down the World's Most Dangerous Road. Now there is a multitude of tour agencies offering the same thrill, all with varying degrees of quality and safety; no backpacker wants to miss out. Make no mistake, it's big business, and you can expect to pay the price of a week's accommodation to get a decent bike and guide to offer you the chance to die!
Although these days the road permits only one-way traffic and the surface is much improved, racing down it still gets the juices flowing. The road surface is still little more than a bumpy dirt track with large stones and mud pockets ready to catch the unsuspecting cyclist off guard. The weather is also unpredictable; a combination of clouds, rain, fog and dust makes visibility extremely poor, masking the 600-metre drop into oblivion. Even an experienced cyclist would have to have a hard heart not to quiver at the number of gravestones lining the descent, reminding those alive of those not so fortunate. And the deaths have not dried up: at least 18 backpackers have died since tours down the Death Road started, meaning the decision to tackle those precipitous drops should not be taken lightly. One wrong turn, one wayward rock, one unseen bump, and it could all go badly wrong.
So what's it like? Awesome! The myth-like status of the road, the ever-present danger, the dizzying elevation, the beautiful landscape and the camaraderie of tackling something together with fellow bikers means it really is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Depending on the weather and time of the day, you are more than likely to start the descent in clouds, and the sheer extents of the drops and beauty of the scenery will only become apparent as you ride down. When the clouds eventually clear, you can see why the route is not so popular.
The attraction of two wheels means you can breathe in the landscape whenever you like, stopping between the crosses marking those who have fallen off to admire a series of stunning waterfalls and seductive precipices. Brave bikers are gifted some incredible photo opportunities; the greenery stretching into the distance makes a refreshing change from the rock hue of La Paz. Once you become settled, the experience is more of a beautiful scenic route with a health and safety warning, rather than a terrifying, death-defying spiral into doom. Experienced mountain bikers will not see what all the fuss is about, but for the excitable novice, the ride really is a thrill a minute.
Most tour agencies offer the chance at the bottom of the Death Road to relax in Coroico and have a well-earned lunch and beer with fellow thrill-seekers. You can spend the night or get the bus back to La Paz, T-shirts emblazoned with the coveted phrase. Upon finishing – if you are so lucky – spare a thought for the fallen. That's before the combination of altitude and adrenaline takes you through the non-stop celebration in La Paz! It might be dangerous, but it's a must. On yer bikes, travellers!

Compared to 1.2 million tonnes for March, just 45,700 tonnes of rail freight were transported by rail from Russia to the Latvian ports of Riga and Ventspils in the first half of May, Meduza reported via Reuters.
The steep drop in freight volume was confirmed by Edgars Sūna, director of the marketing department at Riga port.
Reuters cites sources as saying that Russian Railways, a state-owned railway monopoly is refusing most requests to take cargo from Russia to ports in Latvia.
Sources told Reuters that they suspected the move is a retaliation for Latvia snubbing Nord Stream 2, a Russian-led pipeline project.
While a representative of the Riga Freeport says that Russia might have decided to move its freight through its own ports in Murmansk and Arkhangelsk.
Russian Railways deny that there are any restrictions to sending freight through Latvian ports.
In April the Latvian government turned down Ventspils' involvement in the Nord Stream 2 project citing recommendations by security forces and claiming risks to national security.
Possibility Latvia will lose 'entire Russian transit'
Later on May 24 Sūna told Latvian Radio that the Riga Freeport has seen a steep decrease in freight volumes within the last month and a half.
"In exactly a month and a half the freight volume in freight categories such as coal, petrol and fertilizer has dropped by 45% to 50%," he said.
"We hope that Russia will not be able to reroute freight flows to its own ports, so we'd get a handicap," said Sūna.
"Theoretically there's a chance that we'll lose the entire Russian transit within one, two, or three years. I'm referring to petrol, coal and fertilizer," he said.
Meanwhile Latvian Railways representative Māris Ozols said that the freight volume carried on rail has decreased only marginally. He claimed 2.64 million tonnes have been carried by rail May 1-22, which is 98% in comparison to the same period last year.
Transport Minister denies reports
"There are no decisions, neither official nor unofficial," said Latvia's Transport Minister Uldis Augulis, claiming the reports over the steep decline in rail freight are nothing but rumors.
"They [the media] have cited an anonymous, unknown person who provided this information. [Latvian] Railways have concluded Q1 with a 8.1% growth on year in terms of freight volume and a 29% annual increase for container freight," he said.
He also claimed he doesn't have information about freight reduction from ports as they "aren't really informing" him.
Augulis did however admit that petrol freight volumes continuing to fall.
Russian transit makes up 65% of all freight at Rīga Freeport.

Film producer Weinstein Co.'s board fired co-founder Harvey Weinstein, who stepped away from the company last week after allegations of sexual harassment became public.
"In light of new information about misconduct by Harvey Weinstein that has emerged in the past few days" the board of directors has informed "Weinstein that his employment is terminated, effective immediately," the company said in an emailed statement Sunday.
And this, Harvey Weinstein only own 23% of the company:
The board has the right to suspend or permanently banish Weinstein, who holds about a 23% equity stake in the company, with his brother and co-chief Bob Weinstein holding the same amount. The board controls the majority, and things haven't exactly been smooth between them. Weinstein's good friend, James Dolan, was a board member but left that post in 2016.

Edits in the Red
Posted in blog, copy edits, rambling 1 Comment
Bleah. So aside from the fact that I woke up with a really wretched sore throat (one I've been fighting off for the last few weeks but seemed to have succumbed to, finally.), I have to admit it was a fairly productive long weekend. Sure, I still owe people some blogs posts and a few write ups…but, my copy edits? Hells yeah. I've got about 100 pages to go, but I did manage to crank through 250 the last few days. Apparently, my characters snort a lot. Or they did. Not so much at this point. I think I'm going to have to go and do a hard core search for "toward" as well. Reading it as a whole, there seems to be an awful lot of "he turned toward x" or "she moved toward y". Most of those are probably unnecessary. In fact, the easy solution (for me, anyway)… Read more
Both Lucy and I are running fevers tonight, so I suspect there's a sick day in it for me tomorrow, or at least a day working from home if she's not feeling any better. She's definitely got the worst of it at the moment – my temp is running on the edge of uncomfortable with an side order of headache, but it's manageable. Of course, it would be more manageable if I could actually take drugs for it, but alas, once I start down the road with aspirin or ibuprofen, my prolotherapy goes down the crapper. Anyway, today was good in other ways, as Ye Ye celebrated his 80th birthday. He actually managed to make it out to the Peking Gourmet Inn (if you live near DC, this is *the* place to go for Peking duck, bar none. There's a reason the walls are lined with photos of celebrities and… Read more
Cotton Head
Posted in blog, blog stuff, rambling, sick Leave a comment
I hate waking up and realizing I'm on the brink of a cold. It's not quite here and if I'm really lucky I may be able hide from its snot-loving fingers. The harbingers are unmistakable – the slightly achy head, the almost scratchy throat, post nasal nastiness, the way I suddenly feel like I'm moving in slow motion… Funny how the body has a way of telling you to slow down. I know I've been burning the candle at both ends for a while now, and I'm definitely not getting enough sleep. (And some of those reasons have less to do with writerly things and more to do with with trying to play through Dragon Age and Awakenings before DA2 comes out next month. So,so, so excited for this game.) On the other hand, life doesn't stop being life, even with the best of intentions. Connor's basketball tryouts went on for over… Read more
WTF Sunday
Posted in blog, rambling, reviews, wtf Leave a comment
I had an awesome WTFkery planned for today, but alas, ebay has taken it down. Essentially, a couple of kids had been using their Beyblades in the bathtub. Connor has some of those and they spin pretty hard, but I guess in this case the Beyblades did about $500 worth of damage to the tub and tiles with their spinning, so the pissed off parents were putting up the Beyblades for sale…and they posted a picture of the these two completely devastated boys holding the bag of Beyblades. Sort of priceless, even if it was probably a hoax (Last I saw, the auction was up to about $300, which is way, way more than the toys are worth.). I showed it to Connor and he was, of course, all about the Beyblades. "I hope they don't get rid of those two that light up. Those are cool." Indeed. I suppose they are.… Read more
Whither the YA of my Youth?
Posted in books, rambling, YA 6 Comments
Jeffe and I were speculating the other day as to whether or not the YA genre actually existed when we were growing up (a nebulous period in the 70's and 80's, to be specific.) We took it to Twitter and the general consensus was that it didn't. I started reading at a pretty early age. I know some of my favorites in 3rd and 4th grade were things like Island of the Blue Dolphins, The Little Princess and The Secret Garden…but after that things get a bit hazy. At some point I was handed Piers Anthony's Xanth series, because I got mono in 4th grade and I distinctly remember not being allowed to participate in recess in the months that followed (which meant a lot of reading.) I remember reading Ogre, Ogre in May of that year, which was the 8th book in that series. Did I get all of his puns?… Read more

Determined to shake up the photographic industry, Hasselblad has unleashed a world's first in the form of the black X1D-50c Medium Format Mirrorless Digital Camera. This camera takes the well-regarded 50MP 43.8 x 32.9mm CMOS sensor found in numerous medium format systems and incorporates it into a revolutionary mirrorless camera body. Designed and handmade in Sweden, this camera is a precision tool with exceptional ergonomics and a compact size that even rivals smaller format systems. Taking this system above and beyond the rest is a large sensor that works hand-in-hand with the Hasselblad Natural Color Solution to create phenomenal raw images with smooth tonal gradations thanks to 16-bit color depth and 14 stops of dynamic range.
Image quality is superb, and Hasselblad's electronic system is capable of capturing clean images within a sensitivity range of ISO 100-25600, while also being able to capture photos at a rate of up to 2.3 fps. Moving a bit beyond pure image quality, the X1D embraces the Hasselblad Central Lens Shutter, enabling shutter speeds as long as 60 minutes or as short as 1/2000 second, with flash sync possible at every speed. Additionally, to make the camera more versatile, Full HD 1080p video at 25 fps using H.264 compression is possible.
Moving into operational details, the X1D embraces mirrorless design by incorporating a 2.36MP XGA electronic viewfinder that permits natural, eye-level monitoring with the added advantage of overlays and programmable information in direct sight. One such feature would be the ability to shoot in various aspects with a view that compensates for such changes, including square or the classic XPan panoramic format. Alongside this EVF is a 3.0" 920k-dot touchscreen LCD on the rear that permits intuitive operation of all of the camera's features and settings.
For more physical and tactile use, the X1D offers front and rear dials as well as a mode dial which can be locked into a recessed position to prevent accidental changes when it is in your bag. There are also dual SD card slots for backup, organization, or just having extra storage. Bringing the system into the modern age is built-in Wi-Fi, allowing for remote connection and file transfer. Additionally, it has Mini HDMI, audio input and output, and a super-fast USB 3.0 Type C connection.
Hasselblad X SystemIntroducing mirrorless medium format, Hasselblad's X system takes the outstanding quality of a larger sensor and manages to create a compact, yet uncompromising camera that will deliver almost unparalleled image quality. It is designed and made in Sweden and draws inspiration from the company's legendary V system. Also, making use of the mirrorless design and a central lens shutter, system noise is kept to a minimum for shooting without disturbing your subject.

[KINDLE] ❤ Operating Instructions: A Journal of My Son's First Year ➜ Anne Lamott – Uroturk.info
a few things were laugh outloud funny, a lot of things were kind of ridiculous Having a new little dude ourselves, certainly there were moments and events I could relate to, but the self absorbed self deprecating thing got really tiresome for me Also, yes, I get it, you belong to a predominately black church move on. Hold your hats, folks I m about to get all over the top in this review.I needed this book right now, with all it s one lines that make me laugh out loud You should have seen me last evening, lying in the grass outside my church it was only in the 70s yesterday, and today, with a light breeze perfect grass lying weather and laughing like a maniac I m sure all the Amish people who came by in their buggies must have thought I was nuts.So this book is the journal that Lamott kept during her son s first year of life It s a story of love and fear all that stuff that comes with a kid, I assume and is so honest, so so honest And funny, really funny.Take this, for example November 22 I wish he could take longer naps in the afternoon He falls asleep and I feel I could die of love when I watch him, and I think to myself that he is what angels look like Then I doze off, too, and it s like heaven, but sometimes only twenty minutes later he wakes up and begins to make his gritchy rodent noises, scanning the room wildly I look blearily over at him in the bassinet, and think, with great hostility, Oh, God, he s raising his loathsome reptilian head again When I go over to the bassinet to pick him up, though, he looks up at me like I m Coco the clown he beams, and makes raspberries, and does frantic bicycle kicks like he s doing his baby aerobics Then I feel I can go on I ve never been so up and down in my life, so erratic and wild My body is slow getting back to normal, except for my butt and thighs I have to keep remembering the line about the little earth suits and that I am a feminist, because the thighs are just not doing all that well I lay in the bathtub yesterday looking at them, thinking of entering the annual Hemingway write alike contest with a piece called, Thighs like White Elephants And then part of me thinks, Hey, who fucking cares.That voice, that sarcastic, bitter but ultimately beautiful voice is what I love about Anne Lamott I m going to give this book to every friend of mine who has a kid which is most of them so that they don t feel so alone when they think their baby has a reptilian head And I m going to remember this book when I hold their babies and wonder what goes on in those little brains.The only sad part about having finished this book is that now I m out of Lamott books to read Annie, get writing would ya The Most Honest, Wildly Enjoyable Book Written About Motherhood Is Surely Anne Lamott S Account Of Her Son Sam S First Year A Gifted Writer And Teacher, Lamott Crooked Little Heart Is A Single Mother And Ex Alcoholic With A Pleasingly Warped Social Circle And A Remarkably Tolerant Religion To Lean On She Responds To The Changes, Exhaustion, And Love Sam Brings With Aplomb Or Outright Insanity The Book Rocks From Hilarious To Unbearably Poignant When Sam S Burgeoning Life Is Played Out Against A Very Close Friend S Illness No Saccharine Paean To Becoming A Parent, This Touches On The Rage And Befuddlement That Dog Sweeter Emotions During This Sea Change In One S Life A friend of mine gave me a copy of this book while I was pregnant, and he never knew what a favor he truly did for me.Anne Lamott writes all the gritty details of the thoughts that go through any sleep deprived parent s mind, but we aren t ever brave enough to admit them, sometimes not even to ourselves.Having already read about some crazy lady Anne Lamott wondering if she could leave her baby out in the cold and see if that whole survival of the fittest thing would work out, I was farforgiving when I hadn t slept in weeks and found myself daydreaming about similar psychotic scenarios Sleep deprivation is a real bitch, and a screaming baby that depends on you for life can be a real cheese grater on your nerves Knowing there are other parents that think those crazy thoughts and don t actually DO them can make a world of difference in the way new parents handle the stress of it all.The birth of your child is also the death of the life you once knew It may be similar, but it will never be the same Anne Lamott graciously shows us we don t have to be graceful about it, we can go through it kicking and screaming, too Her honesty is a blessing to us all. This is a great, lovely book about having a newborn I had a blast reading it because I don t have a newborn any a three a half year old is a whole other flavor of getting your ass kicked it s easy to have fond feelings about G s babyhood that are based on totally false recollections Remember when we could just set him on the couch he couldn t go anywhere Remember when he took two whole naps a day Ah, such good times I am an idiot I was so constantly exhausted that my skeleton hurt, and while you could set G on the couch he couldn t go anywhere, he d just start crying hysterically, so it wasn t actually that cool Lamott gazes at her napping son, thinking sweetly how angelic he is she falls asleep, he wakes her up a few minutes later, and she thinks, Oh great, he s raising his monstrous lizard head again Yeah, I know that feeling Every ludicrous fear she has that she s broken Sam s neck because she hit a pothole in the car, all her amazement at his star like little hands, his gigantic round eyes, and his porno baby puffy lips, every time she s been listening to him cry for hours she wants to give him back every bit of this is totally spot on It s so accurate to my own life that when she comments about how Sam can now saythan Ah goo I laughed out loud Ah goo is the name of G s stuffed monkey because it was the first animal he ever noticed it was also the first thing he could say This is such a wonderful book I am absolutely never having another baby. This is not an empowering book This is a let me feel sorry for myself kind of book At some point, it has become hip and good writing to use profanity and say shocking things like I hate my baby While I acknowledge that feeling overwhelmed is very real for some mothers, especially those without a partner myself included in the latter category , reading Operating Instructions gave me a dark feeling, somewhat akin to the feeling that reading Dostoevsky causes minus the mastery of the prose Lamott describes herself as being in a dark hole most of that first year, unwashed, depressed, extremely tired and lonely, with rare glimpses of her son s beauty I think a lot of her issues stem from the self acknowledged substance abuse problems of the past and losing her father some years earlier though, not from having a baby on her own All in all, I would much rather read a positive, upbeat book written by somebody who is capable of maintaining self discipline and organizing their lives than an author who aims at being brutally honest but really sounds like another common wreck of a person. Oh how I wish I had read this book when my children were babies Then perhaps I would have realized I was not alone in finding new motherhood so hard while loving my children so unbearably much Annie Lamott just nails it. Even if you have never been a parent, your kids have grown up, read this for the sheer pleasure of it. I teach at Creighton University, and so like most instructors was appalled when Lamott was disinvited, but neverthan after I read this book It s been a long time since I ve laughed out loud while reading a book, and longer since a book has provoked guffaws seriously, hearty laughter AND reflection, revelation, and grief Honest is a perfect word to describe this book, which bravely I think puts out there the concept that being a mother isn t always being 100% in love with your child, that it isn t always the most wildly blissful experience, that sometimes mothers do wish they could make their babies disappear And yet, there is such tenderness in the way she begs repeatedly of God to let her son outlive her using an image that s always killed me baby turtles just born, struggling across the beach to the water, picked off one by one by circling birds This is a woman who runs straight at the truth in her prose, and as a reader I often felt the impact resonate through me I m not a mother, and I don t know about the whole God thing, but wow, did this book arrest my movement through life and give me some things to think about. This is the best parenting book ever Right when you feel like you have hit the wall, Anne Lammott makes it OK to feel all the frustrations and pain as well as the awe and overwhelming love for your little offspring When my second child refused to sleepthan 2 hours at a time for 3, count em, 3 months while I was working full timeI bought every book about getting your child to sleep that I could find I finally called in sick, sent my kid to day care, and read this entire book in one day between naps I had already read it with my first baby, but I felt so restored that I had the strength to facesleepless nights Just another reminder that laughing helps everything.

Today, unlike most days, I'm in the mood to jump on a bandwagon. Some things, some things are worth jumping for, even better, popping up for.
On 19-24th and 26-29th March the popup's pop up at M Victoria Street are lowering their guard and opening their hidden doors to support NGO, Not For Sale. The two events are appearing on London's foodie scene in support of International Women's Day aiming to raise awareness and much needed charitable donations to end sex trafficking and forced labour.
During the pop-up M Victoria Street will be serving a special menu and word on the street is that Tinie Tempah, Simon Mayo and Simon Shaw OBE are all on the billing.

Becoming an animal
October 20, 2018
I wanted to carry the animal to the church,
not for a blessing, instead
to prove it didn't need one.
So I didn't bring it into the sanctuary, and everyone thought this was quite polite,
to keep my animal with straw stuck to the dung on its feet outside.
But really I wanted them to sit side by side as equals.
Two big lumps of flesh.
You see my animal is its own sanctuary.
My animal can do CPR training, but only at random intervals, which is then construed as some type of prophetic response, like flamingos that fly the wrong way and fall, suddenly, when they freeze in the sky over Siberia.
It cannot save your life all the time, because then it would be practical. It has been said that holy things cannot have a use. I don't believe this is true, but this is how some people split the profane from the sacred. The useless must be set apart from the things we make assumptions about as if our routines and rumors would be more dependable than flamingos.
Like churches.
I used to be practical.
Out of necessity.
I made a shoestring corral to live in,
Big enough to support small living things.
I had to leave the doors open when it was hot and light the heater with a match every night. But it was real. And I worked hard to braid the shoestrings, and to frustrate the bill collectors.
It was a lot of work and measurement and perhaps stealing.
To build a world that sustains some spider plants and aloe vera.
And now someone braids for me. I am not sure if I am useful or not. And in the middle of the corral I make a lot of animals that I am unable to feed or bath, making quite sure there will be no practical application, so they can be made without explanation. Animals are as incomprehensible as a pure motive. I wipe them with straw and {create odd rituals}. I forget a lot and think I might be getting older, but sometimes "now" is not the most important time. It is sometimes more important to find something eternal, a string, a stone, the elements.

Everything started, believe it or not, with a story about air kisses.
About 10 years ago, journalist Niki Cheong, then a freelancer for this newspaper, told Star TV producer Tan Ju-Eng about an experience he once had with an affectionate aunt.
"She leaned in to air kiss me. I had no idea what was happening, and she just tumbled over me! And these were stories that we thought could only happen to an urban kid who lived in Bangsar," Cheong recalls with a smile.
"When she (Tan) heard my story, she asked why don't you write about this? And I said, I wasn't sure if I wanted to write about people so close to me. And she said, if you want to make a difference, you need to be brave and courageous. Are you bold enough to do this? If you are, I'll give you a column."
And that was the beginning of The Bangsar Boy, Cheong's column about his experiences growing up in one of the country's more well-known parts of Kuala Lumpur.
Tan, formerly a senior editor at The Star's Metro section, placed the column there, where it proved very popular: it still runs fortnightly in Metro every Wednesday, a decade after it was introduced.
This year, Cheong has compiled about 40 of his columns together into a book, Growing Up In KL: Ten Years Of The Bangsar Boy.
The striking cover depicts the author wearing several kinds of eyewear: a metaphor for the "different lenses" he has adapted while looking at life as a writer and journalist.
"I feel like The Bangsar Boy speaks to a particular way of looking at Malaysia, from a very progressive, urban vantage point. When I got to 10 years, I was wondering how to mark this, and I thought a good idea would be to reflect on all the stories I had written," Cheong says at an interview last week.
"Some of the stories really spoke to me. Some of the stories, I felt, really spoke to the shared experiences we have as Malaysians."
Since those early days, Cheong has become a writer, lecturer and journalist of note, who is currently pursuing his PhD at Britain's University of Nottingham. Apart from being a columnist for The Star as well as a former editor of the paper's youth section, R.AGE., he has been featured on the BBC, Al-Jazeera and MTV Asia, among other platforms.
He has also coordinated various social programmes for youth, such as 2013's 50x50 My Malaysia, and 2014's LimaPuluhTujuh.
Cheong's book, published by MPH Group Publishing, is divided into four parts. The first centres on his family; this section was particularly touching for Cheong, whose father died in 2016.
"I use my parents in my stories a lot. The values they raised me influenced me a lot.
"When you lose a parent, they always say to let the memories live on. So it's very special for me that I am able to immortalise my memories of him in a book," Cheong says.
The other parts of the book revolve around growing up in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur, and Malaysia respectively.
"I talk about things like me and my neighbours playing Uno through our fence, or playing badminton over our gates.
"There is a story where I go about doing a jog around Bangsar and end up meeting different people, like the newspaper man, the sundry shop man, the nasi lemak girl. I talk about Bukit Bintang as an urban space in a story about how we lack public spaces in the city," Cheong describes some of the book's content.
"And I talk a bit about Malaysia, and reflect on my views on muliticulturalism. I talk about why it's so important for us to find our commonalities instead of focusing on our differences."
According to the author, the book ends with a piece taken from his late father's blog, where he speaks about his family's experiences with interreligious marriage.
"I thought it would be nice to publish this in his memory. I think the piece really encapsulates the values I grew up with and still carry, and also speaks to the country's social fabric. He discusses the space between culture, religion and tradition. I thought it was a nice piece to end the book with," Cheong says.
Going through his older columns, Cheong says, was an interesting experience.
"It was weird in that I didn't realise my writing style had changed! I would see things like, hey, I would never use those words to describe that. And, obviously, I've grown up, I've became more aware of the world. Even the way I speak has changed, and I didn't know that was reflected in my articles!" he says with a laugh.
The book also features commentaries on Cheong's pieces from people such as his ex-students and former colleagues, as well as luminaries such as Jo Kukathas, Carmen Soo, Elaine Daly, Datuk Zahim Albakri, and Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai (Star Media Group CEO and managing director).
"I think getting their feedback has been very useful, not just for me as a writer but as a person as well. It's helped me reflect on how my values have changed over the years, how the things I've talked about have changed," Cheong says.
"What it does, hopefully, is to allow people to relate to articles written 10 years ago, make them relevant today. Things change, people change, I learn new things every day."
Writing The Bangsar Boy for a decade, Cheong says, has been an amazing experience that has given him the opportunity to meet a diverse range of people, as well as a platform to speak about social issues he is passionate about.
"I hope to give people a little record for their bookshelves. Hopefully, it's something that allows them to reflect on the country they live in and grew up in," he says.
Growing Up In KL: Ten Years Of The Bangsar Boy will be launched at 2pm tomorrow at MPH, Nu Sentral Mall, Jalan Sambanathan, Kuala Lumpur. Thereafter, it will also be on sale at all major bookstores nationwide.

Klairs Launches 'Fundamental Eye Duo', a Set of 2 New Products for Your Delicate and Dehydrated Eye Area
-'Eye Butter' with rich nutrition without being greasy, and 'Eye Gel' with hydrating sensation...now at 10% launch sale
-Contains a high percentage of active ingredients including quad peptides, red bean extract, caffeine, and more
The 'Fundamental' line from Klairs is known for containing a high percentage of active ingredients, and the recent 2 additions for the line also contains a considerable amount of quad peptides, red bean extract, caffeine, and many more.
The 'Fundamental Eye Awakening Gel' is perfect for busy mornings, as it presents cooling and hydrating sensation. The gel-type moisturizer contains red bean extract, caffeine, and quad peptides to provide moisture on your delicate and dehydrated eye area. It's suitable for everyone including oily skin and people who aren't familiar with eye care products, and the quick absorption with a refreshing finish also enables you to apply the gel right before the makeup.
The 'Fundamental Nourishing Eye Butter' contains quad peptides and sunflower seed oil that is rich in vitamin A and vitamin E to provide rich nutrition without being overly greasy. The butter-like texture melts away around your delicate eye area creating a layer of much-needed nutrition, rendering your eye area bouncy and elastic.

Use SafetyTac® Arrows to highlight important pathways in your facility. These arrows can provide instructions about which direction to go while working or even when evacuating during an emergency. SafetyTac® Arrows are made using the same high-quality, industrial material as our SafetyTac® tape, which means they can withstand forklift and truck traffic if necessary. They will also hold up to water, chemicals, and UV rays. These arrows are easy to install, so you won't need to worry about downtime during installation. They also have a low profile so they won't interfere with your facility's operations.
SafetyTac® Shapes sit smoothly on floors and won't snag or cause tripping.
Just peel off the backing and stick the tape to a clean, dry surface.
SafetyTac® Shapes can hold up to heavy foot and vehicle traffic.
We know our industrial floor tapes are the toughest on the market, so we stand behind them. As long as they are installed and maintained properly, SafetyTac Industrial Floor Tape, SafetyTac® Lean, and SafetyTac® Hazard come with a one-year warranty. If you have a problem before your warranty period is up, we'll replace your tape for free.
