18th Century Longboat by Model Shipways experiences?
Hi All! I just ordered the 18th Century Longboat by Model Shipways from Model Expo. Simply could not pass up the current $50 sale price alone! Are there any of you currently working on this kit? Advice? I would assume the kit does NOT come with boxwood as did the prototype? Any advices on sources of boxwood for this kit as to be honest with you I have been out of shipmodeling for a few years. Thanks for your input! jim hahn in Maine
Re: 18th Century Longboat by Model Shipways experiences?
Welcome back to ship modeling and welcome to the forum, James!
I think everyone here will probably agree that Jeff Hayes at the Hobby Mill offers great service. His wood is well cut and well packaged and he's pretty fast normally. He was backlogged a few months ago, but I think he might be caught up now. His web site is: http://www.hobbymillusa.com The boxwood he sells is actually South American boxwood, which technically isn't a true boxwood species, but is very nice stuff, which I use more and more. My second recommendation is Dave over at The Lumberyard here: http://www.dlumberyard.com Service is a bit slower and communication isn't as good as HobbyMill, but they do offer true boxwood. They also offer cannon barrels, Hahn framing kits, etc. Good luck with the Longboat. It makes a nice looking model. Clare |

Quick lead fades slowly; Falcon boys hoops eliminated
By BEN WATANABE
South Whidbey Record Sports, South Whidbey School District, South Whidbey Fire/EMS
February 12, 2013 · Updated 2:30 PM
Much like their mascot, the Mount Baker Mountaineers kept rising to South Whidbey's challenges.
First it was a 15-2 deficit sparked by South Whidbey's new-look transition offense. Then it was a 31-25 halftime Falcon lead. Finally, Mount Baker was on top and fended off South Whidbey's final charge for a 66-56 victory. It ended the Falcons' season and guaranteed the Mountaineers a spot at the 1A regional playoffs.
In a pressure game with the season on the line, South Whidbey's inexperienced roster was ill prepared. South Whidbey lost its starting point guard, senior Sam Turpin, during its final two games in the District 1 playoffs to vacation.
"We didn't have time to prepare somebody else," said Falcon junior forward Nick French.
"We didn't have a lot of guys that were prepared to play, it was just a lack of experience at the varsity level."
Fellow senior Taylor Simmons took control of the offense, and senior sharpshooter Josh Bishop stepped into the starting lineup. Reserves junior Nate Hanson and junior Jordan Parrick saw extended minutes for the second game in two days.
From the tipoff, South Whidbey employed an up-tempo offense that produced transition points. Falcon junior Brandon Asay knocked down a three-point field goal that sparked his team's energetic offense. Asay had one of those days for shooters, one where he hit three more three-pointers and totaled 16 points.
Yet Asay was not the game's leading scorer. He wasn't even his team's leading scorer. French hammered the Mountaineers inside for a game-high 18 points. Defensively, teams have keyed on French and fellow forward Parker Collins, a sophomore who scored 15 points. With Asay sinking his outside shots, Mount Baker was forced to defend the perimeter.
"I thought everybody was confident," French said. "First thing coach told us in the locker room was, 'Tonight nobody's tired, nobody's sore.'"
Eventually, South Whidbey's speedy offense caught up with its three games in four days schedule. By the fourth quarter, Mount Baker held a 47-45 lead and methodically built its advantage.

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in Febuary 2013. The rooms are good but the location of the hotel is not good as it is in a narrow lane and would not expect a 4 star rating hotel in that. The food is very expensive too. Overall experience in good with all the modern amenities....

SOURCE Breast Restoration AdVocacy Education Day
Join BRAVE DAY - Breast Restoration AdVocacy Education Day
VANCOUVER, Wash., March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- BRAVE DAY is today, Thursday March 21st, the official national day to emphasize the importance of Breast Restoration Rights through a series of advocacy events throughout the United States.
BRAVE DAY is about women and their rights.
Survival is only the first part of the healing process. To truly thrive you have to treat the whole person: body, mind and spirit. To do that, a patient needs to know exactly what resources are available and how to access resources. Many plastic and breast surgeons around the country are starting their own local charities to help women get the information they need and resources to help them in this healing process.
Husband and Wife Team, Dr. Brian Thornton, Plastic Surgeon, and Dr. Tiffany Berry, surgical breast oncologist, stated that a "Team approach between the Breast Surgeon and Plastic Surgeon with the entire multidisciplinary treatment team is key to ensuring optimal clinical outcomes."
Dr. Allen Gabriel and Dr. Cassie Gabriel, founders of Vancouver, Washington breast cancer non-profit Pink Lemonade Project, jointly stated that "BRAVE DAY serves an important day to help raise awareness so women understand their rights in general but specifically for Breast Restoration/Reconstruction, which under state and federal law mandates that insurance carriers cover the cost of reconstructive procedures." (Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998)
Dr. David Caplin, who runs Gateway to Hope in St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. Renato Saltz, founder of Image Reborn in Salt Lake City, Utah, Dr. James Namnoum of Pink Ribbon Story Foundation of Atlanta, Georgia and Dr. Aldona Spiegel in Houston, Texas are more examples of other plastic surgeons working in communities to help inform patients of resources available via non-profit work.
While some women choose not to have breast reconstruction, ALL women should have the option. A recent breast cancer reconstruction patient expressed why breast reconstruction was important to her, "To start with, it makes the woman feel whole. I had no idea what I was getting into when I learned I had breast cancer. Being able to have reconstruction has allowed me to still feel like a woman and feel like even though I had breast cancer, I do not need to be reminded of it every day. I couldn't imagine how my self-esteem would have been affected if I had not had reconstruction. It seems a bit inhumane to not have that option."

Sure you have mad knife skills, but if you have to produce a lot of beautifully sliced vegetables or meat, the right food processing equipment is hard to beat.
THE KEY TO BUYING the right food processing equipment is to match the cost of the equipment to the capacity of your tasks. Consider your options below.
Semi-automatic and fully automatic are the two basic slicer types available. Most machines use either a 10" round blade on a compact machine or a full-size 12" blade suitable for most production work. Check the motor horsepower when selecting a slicer. A larger horsepower motor is more suitable if you plan on slicing a lot of harder foods such as cheeses.
The fully automatic slicer has the addition of a motorized carriage, which automatically moves the food over the blade repeatedly. Some more expensive models can even automatically portion sliced meats. If you require a lot of thinly sliced meats, consider an automatic indexing carriage. There are also some high-end slicers with computerized controls that can slice meat or cheese in a variety of patterns, ready for use in an attractive deli platter.
Select a slicer that's easy to disassemble for cleaning. An easy-to-use knife sharpener, often mounted in the equipment, is also advantageous. Many machines now have permanently mounted ring guards around the blade to reduce accidents.
Most slicers are gravity feed models. These allow the operator to manually move the food-mounted carriage against a motorized rotating blade in semi-automatic models. One of the trendiest machines is a manual, hand-crank slicer, often painted fire engine red, just like those used generations ago. Many chefs say manually turning the wheel and controlling the blade speed are the only way to slice the ideal prosciutto. These machines are very expensive.
Food Processors
Suppose you need diced potatoes, shoestring French fries, julienne carrots or all three. The food processor can handle all three. Most can perform many cutting actions with speed and consistency. The number and sizes of the different cuts are only limited by the number of cutting plates available.
Where consistent cut is important, typically a continuous feed machine is used. Although the unit is capable of doing many other products, vegetables are the most processed food type. The continuous feed of product ejects the cut food through the discharge chute, which can be positioned above a pan or container. Some manufacturers make as many as 35 cutting plates.
Bowl processors have a cutter bowl, which allows the food processor to work like a blender or vertical cutter/mixer. Food processed in a bowl can be chopped, blended or even pureed. The bowl attachment can be used to mix ingredients or even to knead dough. The cut for vegetables, of course, will be less consistent, but can be a very fine chop. Most bowl-type food processors are quite fast. Where a consistent cut is important, typically the continuous feed machine is the unit to use.
For the most flexibility, choose a processor with a bowl, a continuous feed attachment and a variety of processing plates. These hybrid combination models are capable of doing fine, consistent vegetable processing and vertical cutting and mixing as well.
The average unit needed for most restaurants has a ⅓ to ½ horsepower motor. For large establishments, a one-horsepower model will usually suffice.
Buy the smallest unit that meets your needs. Also, don't buy more processing attachments than necessary. With some plates costing $200 plus, too many blades is costly. Most need three to five cutting/dicing plates.

We also provide a whole lot of other content you'd expect from any newspaper including international sports coverage and local Wisconsin weather forecasts.
We also provide readers with an opportunity to engage in newsmaking by voting on major stories in the news, and following how other readers are viewing the issues. Our news polls are regularly updated, and attract thousands of voters over each week they're conducted.
Our business writers too work hard to keep you abreast of what's happening in the markets, not only in the U.S. but across the globe. We work around the clock to post stories from major financial centers like Tokyo, Paris, London, and of course New York, where we have extensive coverage of the major indices, particularly the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P and Russell 2000.

Sewing Room Tips: Magnetic Pin Bowl
January 28, 2013
4 {comments}:
- Claire (aka Seemane) said...
I don't think that Magnetic Paint would work - I believe the paint contains small steel/iron particles... which allow a magnet to stick onto the painted surface. Therefore, as the pins are not themselves magnetic - they would not stick to the paint.
You can often find cheap magnetic little tins/trays/dishes in hardware or DIY stores - as people use them to keep their nails/screws etc. safe from getting lost. I found one for Hubby once in our local Pound Shop (I guess they're the UK equivalent of a Dollar-Store?) - January 28, 2013 at 2:49 PM

My husband gave me a magnetic bowl he had bought for himself to store loose nails. He bought it at Home Depot for a few dollars. It's extremely magnetic so I can't place it next to my machine for long, but it's perfect on my cutting table and ironing board.

After too many times knocking over the pin box, I just use my homemade pin cushion cuff religiously. It's cute too! But, this is beautiful and would look great sitting on the table.

Mechanics use magnetic bowls all the time. You can buy them in auto parts stores usually in several different sizes. Just thought I'd mention it for those who don't feel the DIY itch :)

That night we learned from Straw our location on the trail. We were far above the Indian reservation, and instead of having been astray our foreman had held a due northward course, and we were probably as far on the trail as if we had followed the regular route. So in spite of all our good maxims, we had been borrowing trouble; we were never over thirty miles to the westward of what was then the new Western Cattle Trail. We concluded that the "Running W" herd had turned back, as Straw brought the report that some herd had recrossed Red River the day before his arrival, giving for reasons the wet season and the danger of getting waterbound. Continue reading
The Log of a Cowboy Chapter XX. A Moonlight Drive
The two herds were held together a second night, but after they had grazed a few hours the next morning, the cattle were thrown together, and the work of cutting out ours commenced. With a double outfit of men available, about twenty men were turned into the herd to do the cutting, the remainder holding the main herd and looking after the cut. The morning was cool, every one worked with a vim, and in about two hours the herds were again separated and ready for the final trimming. Campbell did not expect to move out until he could communicate with the head office of the company, and would go up to Fort Laramie for that purpose during the day, hoping to be able to get a message over the military wire. When his outfit had finished retrimming our herd, and we had looked over his cattle for the last time, the two outfits bade each other farewell, and our herd started on its journey. Continue reading
The Outlet Chapter XIII. Justice in the Saddle
It was an hour after the usual time when we bedded down the cattle. The wagon had overtaken us about sunset, and the cook's fire piloted us into a camp fully two miles to the right of the trail. A change of horses was awaiting us, and after a hasty supper Tupps detailed two young fellows to visit Ogalalla. It required no urging; I outlined clearly what was expected of their mission, requesting them to return by the way of Flood's wagon, and to receive any orders which my employer might see fit to send. The horse-wrangler was pressed in to stand the guard of one of the absent lads on the second watch, and I agreed to take the other, which fell in the third. The boys had not yet returned when our guard was called, but did so shortly afterward, one of them hunting me up on night-herd. Continue reading

Private Safaris
We've discussed luxury and we've talked about the fact that Africa can be enormously "grounding", reawakening many an instinct that lies dormant within us. After all, staying at a luxury camp in a National Park or a closeup wildlife encounter – maybe whilst you are on foot! – are unforgettable moments in time.
We are always looking to enhance our client's experience of Africa, wherever it may take place. Given that the one crucial factor that makes or breaks a safari is the quality and, arguably, intensity of the guiding an obvious way to make the absolute most of every day is to ask us to create a Private Safari.
One might argue that a safari-to-oneself is an indulgence, but that really isn't so when one looks at value and benefit. A private safari for an individual with an over-riding special interest is an obvious case in point, allowing him or her to focus on that speciality with a suitable guide and not be overbearing for others. For a couple, it may be that they simply want to be on their own and take each day as it comes with a guide who is flexible and can tailor each day to their whim. For a family the argument becomes even more compelling – a guide who is sensitive to adults and children alike can make each day as exciting or as relaxing as the participants require. All this has value – after all safaris are hardly cheap and one wants to make the most of every pound or dollar spent. The benefit is, surely, obvious.
If one wants an example of this particular point then look no further than being guided by Richard Knocker in Tanzania. We've known Richard for a Very Long Time Indeed and having him as a private guide is, frankly, a privilege. Utterly knowledgeable and totally at home in his element, Richard is a true gentleman and a superb guide, bringing humour, expertise and enormous fun to the time one spends with him. It is only at the end of the trip that you realise just what a vast ream of information he has shared. A private safari with someone like Richard is a truly wonderful way to enjoy the bush!
People often think that a safari to themselves means a mobile camp or taking a whole property and, sometimes, obviously, this is exactly the point. There are some stunning private houses and lodges (oceanside villas, too, for one's after-safari relaxation!) which we book for our client's private use as well as taking entire camps or erecting mobiles in "just the right spot". But there's no reason why a private safari cannot mix private accommodation – say a mobile or series of mobiles in Kenya, Tanzania or Botswana or a private lodge such as Mukima House in Kenya – with other camps and lodges that might have "outside" guests staying at the same time. In this way clients can spend part of the safari on their own yet have more social interaction at certain times, thus ringing the changes. This suggests another benefit of private safaris: the ability to throw the net very wide when one is at the planning stage. This is a hard thing to value – but it is precious!
Try it sometime! Private safaris are fantastic!

Treatment for ACL Injuries in Children and Teens
Topic Overview
Reference Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries Opens New Window in children and teens are less common than in adults. But they do occur, especially in teens. An injury that hasn't been treated (or one in which the treatment didn't work) can lead to future knee problems. The knee may become more and more unstable. Over time, Reference osteoarthritis Opens New Window may develop.
Trying rehab and other treatments
A child with an ACL injury can sometimes be treated without surgery to avoid damage to the child's still-developing bones. Your child can try rehab exercises, wearing a brace, and avoiding activities that require jumping or twisting.
Studies suggest that the more active a child is, the less likely these treatments will work and the more likely surgery will be needed in the future.Reference 1
An avulsion fracture is more common in young children. This happens when the ligament and a piece of bone separate from the rest of the bone. It can often be treated with a cast. But it sometimes needs surgery.
Having surgery
You may consider surgery if:
- The knee is very unstable doing simple daily activities.
- The knee can't be made stable with other methods.
- The child has both an ACL injury and a Reference meniscus tear Opens New Window.
- The child is a serious athlete in sports that require running, jumping, and stopping quickly.
The main risks of surgery in a child whose bones are still growing is slowed growth. This could make one leg longer than the other. Other risks include a deformed thigh bone. The closer a child or teen is to full growth, the lower the risk of these problems.
Rest after surgery and a long rehab program are very important.

Hey Mom and Dad, How Do You Convince Picky Kids to Eat Healthy Meals?
Parents, Patch wants to hear from you on the questions that get families talking.
Welcome to "Hey, Mom and Dad"—a weekly feature in which we ask our Facebook fans to share their views on parenting. Every week, we get the conversation started by taking a look back at a question we asked parents the week before on Patch Facebook pages from around the area. Many families have resolved to try to eat better in the new year. However, this can often be easier said than done, with picky kids prone to pushing vegetables around on their plate and each dinner turning into a battle of willpower between you and your child. That brings us to this week's question. Take a look at what people had to say and join the conversation in the comments section. Amy Landi-Bragiel: In our home we call it a "thank you bite".

The Best Care for Life Campaign
The Best Care for Life Campaign is a historic fundraising effort supporting the McGill University Health Centre's crucial $2.355 billion redevelopment project. The New MUHC includes the expansion and modernization of the Montreal General and Lachine hospitals, as well as the construction of the Glen site – one of the largest hospital construction projects ever undertaken in Canada. Located next to Vendôme station, this site will be the new home for The Montreal Children's Hospital, the Montreal Chest Institute, the Royal Victoria Hospital, the Research Institute of the MUHC and a new Cancer Centre.
Now in its final stretch, the Best Care for Life Campaign has so far raised $285 million of its $300-million goal thanks to the hard work of the campaign's leadership, countless volunteers, and of course the generosity of the community.
One of the MUHC's most popular fundraisers in support of The Best Care for Life Campaign, Dancing with the Docs was launched in February 2012 and is returning on April 13, 2013 at La Tohu. For details, and to see photos and videos from the inaugural edition, visit dancingwiththedocs.ca.

I'm three weeks in to a 30-day Paleo challenge, and I'm finding that I have to eat LOADS of food to feel satisfied. And then a couple of hours later, I'm hungry again. I'm mainly eating meat and vegetables, with a bit of fish, a fair amount of fruit, and almonds every other day. Sweet potatoes are the only starch that seems to satisfy me, but I don't eat them every day (maybe I should)?
My husband, on the other hand, who eats the same things as me, is never hugely hungry and seems to have even energy levels.
Does it have anything to do with body fat percentage? I'm 26, 5'6", 108ish lbs, between 18-20% body fat, and pretty active (I'm a yoga/Pilates teacher). My husband is 5'11", 180ish lbs, not sure of body fat percentage.
I'm pretty sure I need more starch than I'm getting, but just wondering why I seem to need more than my husband. I don't want to lose weight btw.
Forgive me if this is a stupid question, I'm just trying to understand why some people seem to feel great on VLC and others don't.

Overlooked by the granite heights of Carn Brea and Carn Marth, Redruth is an historic mining town well placed for touring Cornwall's many delights.
The town was once the region's biggest and richest metal mining centre, with a reputation for engineering innovations and names like Murdoch, Trevithick and Watt linked to its fascinating heritage.
Don't miss a trip to East Pool Mine, a Cornish Mining World Heritage Site featuring two superb beam engines. Enjoy an afternoon at Burncoose Gardens, a 30-acre horticultural hotspot with a huge range of plants, woodland trails and café. For water sports galore - sailing, windsurfing, canoeing and trout fishing - head for Stithians Lake. (You can book lessons and hire equipment locally.) Get close to badgers, reindeer and other animals at Feadon Farm Wildlife Centre - a fantastic day out for all the family, with falconry, night walks, rock pooling and nature trail safaris. Go for a ramble in Tehidy Woods - a must in springtime when it's carpeted with bluebells. Or hit the gorgeous sandy beach at nearby Portreath - a favourite haunt of the surfing set. Summer brings continental markets and also the annual celebrations of Murdoch Day, when Redruth hosts a fantastic programme of events.
Add a touch of glamour to your Redruth cottage holiday at Treasure Park, where you'll find beautiful jewellery shops, lots of entertainment for children, Hollywood-style dining venues and crazy golf - and the whole place is dog-friendly!
After a day's adventure, relax in your Redruth cottage or head into town for restaurants, bars and movies.

Ohio ■ r- _) - - S a a t? < r. .- - .-• Church St. home is tree house for a da> 3> O "K 35 • 3> M *. < .-: ■«•. rn a . Francis Husky woke early last Wednesday morning to a rather unusual alarm. It was the sound of a giant tree from his front yard crashing through the window of the guest bedroom in his Church Street residence. "I knew right away that it was the tree," stated a surprisingly upbeat Huslcy, as he viewed the damage. "I had been meaning to take the tree down but never got around to it" The tree was knocked down by the strong winds associated with a string of severe thunderstorms the area had been experiencing. Husley, 84, is a former chemistry teacher at Amherst High School where he taught the subject for 34 years. Some of his former students aided in the removal of the tree. ;Greg Wensel is a former student of mine," said Husley. "He is the one working the crane." Sherrill McLoda, who is Husley's insurance agent and the city's safety-service director, is also a former student. Husley, who has lived in the house for 20 years, said that he was startled at first, but once he knew it was the tree he was calm. "The tree came down at 3:30 (a.m.)," he stated casually. "I went downstairs and sat in the living room and had a cup of coffee and some orange juice. Then, at 7:30. I called Sherrill and she took care of everything else." Husley commented that all of his neighbors were concerned once they saw the tree and came over to see if he was injured. "There is a group of about 20 people who live around here who are old friends," said Husley. "You can always depend on them to help you ouL" Edwards Tree Service arrived to remove the tree from the damaged roof which, according to Husley, is only one month old. "I just paid to have that roof put on a month ago," stated Husley. "I guess the insurance agency gets to pay for it this time." When asked how he felt now that everything was under control Husley simply said, "I'm glad I was in the other room." Francis Husley looks on as workers remove parts of a tree that fell on his home. According to Husley, repairs will take several months. City will reimburse meter reader bit by dog Who says that dogs only attack mailmen? For that matter who says that dogs only attack men? That was not the case recendy when a female meter reader employed by the city's utilities department was bitten on her backside by an angry dog. According to discussions that look place during last week's council committee meetings, Jessie Ro- tuno was making her rounds of Am herst homea taking down meter readings for the city, when she approached a home that had not had its meter read in some time. What Rotuno didn't know was that the person living at the residence — a renter — phones in his readings to the utility department every month. However, his phone ins are only recorded in the billing log, not the read log. Rotuno proceeded with into the fenced-in yard. She was unaware that only a few feet from her there was a dog asleep under a tree. She completed her reading and proceeded to exit the yard. It was at that time that the dog woke up and was startled by Rotuno's presence. The dog then ran up from behind and took a bite out of Rotuno. She quickly exiled the yard and reported to the emergency room where she was treated for the wounds. Rotuno had hoped that the homeowner's insurance would cover the cost of her medical attention, but because the person living in the house is a renter, the insurance refused her claim. Rotuno then took her case to Amherst City Council, who proposed an ordinance authorizing the city to pay her $500 as partial reimbursement for the medical bills and other expenses resulting from the dog bite. This past Monday council decided to pass the ordinance onto the second reading so as to give city law director Ken Stumphauzer time to investigate the legal ramifications of the incident Rotuno's case brought about a debate among council members on the city's laws regarding vicious dogs. According to city ordinances, a dog is either vicious by breed (pit bull), or if the dog has bitten someone already. No action has been taken against the dog or its owner. It was reported that the lady meter reader completed her rounds before reporting to the hospital emergency room for stitches and was on duty for work the next day. 'Maze of Gothic Horrors' is Workshop design by JASON TOMASZEWSKI News-Times reporter Hayrides, pumpkin patches, and apple cider. These are the dungs that come to mind when you think •bout October, and these are the things that you will find at Penton's Farm Market on North Ridge Road in Amherst : Every year the friendly people at Penton's invite local grade schoolers to visit Penton's Pumpkin Patch. This event helps children learn about various fall-inspired dungs like cider making and how to make pea- ant butter. The educational program is led by Kirsten Hill, and encourages the children to participate by Answering questions and tatting the cider and peanut butter they just saw being made. When the indoor program is finished, the children are escorted outside where they take part in a cornstalk maze. The intricate maze is cut out of the com field and ends in a clearing where the children can pick out their own pumpkin. When all of the children have selected a pumpkin they are all led onto a giant tractor for a hayride. The ride weaves its way around the farmland before driving through the com field and (hopping the children off at the start of the maze. This is where the children select which of four activities they want to participate in next They can choose between the Midnight Maze, the Play Patch, the Rhymin' Pines, or the Cat-A-Pumpkin.

Schuyler is my weird and wonderful monster-slayer. Together we have many adventures.
April 10, 2008
Things that give me pause in a busy world
It felt like a really good interview; Greg's got a lot of experience with special needs kids, both personally and professionally, and it absolutely showed. I've talked to a variety of reporters since the book came out, and some of them were exceptionally sensitive and good, but with Greg, it was almost disconcerting, being interviewed by someone who really gets it. I'm curious as to how it's going to turn out; I suspect it's going to be outstanding. When we were doing the actual interview, I almost got a little weepy a few times. Not he-manly at all, I know. I suspect Greg was slipping estrogen into my water when I wasn't looking.
There's so much I want to talk about in more depth, such as the fact that I did a little book-for-movie exchange with Dan Habib, the father and filmmaker behind the brilliant documentary Including Samuel. I'll have much more to say about this, but for now, let me simply say that if you have any feelings or questions about inclusion and mainstreaming for special needs kids, you really do owe it to yourself to see his film. We're not in 100% lockstep agreement (you can probably imagine how I feel about the page in the film notes called "Words Matter", about person-first language), but we come to the same conclusions about the benefits of inclusion for these kids. Not just for my kids, but for yours, too. See this film if you get the opportunity, even if you find yourself opposed to inclusion education. Or especially if you're opposed to it, really.
In my book, I mention the polymicrogyria online support groups that I follow. I never contribute to them, probably out of something akin to misplaced guilt for Schuyler's comparatively good fortune, but I read them religiously. In Schuyler's Monster, I wrote about the heartbreak when a parent comes on the forum and reports the death of their child. There was one a few days ago; I showed it to Greg when he was here, and I think it made a powerful impression on him. Well, of course it did. If you're not touched by reading a parent's words as they report the death of their three year-old as a result of repeated, nasty seizures, there's something dead in your chest. You might want to go have that checked by a physician.
How does a parent watch their child die? How do they make peace with that, with their seemingly cruel or indifferent God and a world with such monsters in it? How do you bury your own son or daughter? People have been telling us how brave and how strong we are, but that's a world of brave and strong that I've never lived in, and do not believe I am capable of. I don't breathe the air on that planet. People have said that God never gives you anything that you can't handle, and I'm here to tell you that's the worst kind of bullshit-on-a-stick there is.
Compared to the Godzilla-like monsters that snatch up little babies and consume them before their heartbroken parents' eyes, Schuyler's is the fucking Cookie Monster. And that's good enough for me, thank you very much.

Wow, thanks for the great link. The Habib family lives an hour away from me and I hadn't heard of this documentary. The trailer was moving, I intend to check out the film.
- Courtney Kay said...
watching babies slowly slip away each day is pain you never forget. thank God for schyler's daily victories!
- Bev Sykes said...
It's not bullshit. You cope because you have no choice. The worst thing I could ever imagine was burying a child. I just knew I could never survive that. Well, joke's on me--I survived burying two. We don't know what we're capable of until we are faced with it. It's not bravery; it's just what is. People say "how do you go on?" Well, you look around and realize that there are others you love who need you and how selfish it would be to give up, and what a disservice to the one(s) who died.
There is guilt, sometimes, when you compare your pain with the pain of, say, someone like yourself and what you are coping with and then you realize there are no degrees of pain. My pain is big because it's mine. Yours is big because it's yours. Someone else is big because it's their's. But it's all just pain, and coping and survival and trusting that somehow you're doing the best you can with what "is." And in that coping you can often find surprising joy and hope...and yeah, even humor.
Thanks for continuing to provide such good information, links to other wonderful sites, and for continuing to let us all be participants in Schuyler's life. - 10:32 AM

Word, Rob. Now that I have a kid, I kinda understand casket-climbers.

Look at that little Grub! SHE'S SO TINY!
- Karen Harrington said...
Great post, Rob! Looking forward to hearing more of your views on the person-first language. As the sister of someone born with CP, I came to understand years ago that often the PC language used to describe any number of disabilities is more for others - not the person who is disabled...or whatever one should call it now. :)
- woolywoman said...
Yep. Monsters make me hate god. I think deep fried bullshit, too.
- Jane said...
I just finished reading your book, and can't begin to tell you how much it moved me. I've worked with special needs babies, and yet have only a small understanding of how difficult it must be to be the parent of one of these little broken kids. But the courage you and your wife showed in fighting for what you knew was right for Schuyler is truly inspirational. If all parents had the strength you do, our society as a whole would be a much better thing. Thank you for putting it all out there.
- Galen said...
I have trouble with that cruel or indifferent god who would allow the suffering of these little children. I've seen too much of it in my work. A loving and omnipotent being would not let children be burned and beaten, or let them go off to school healthy and happy and lapse into a coma by the end of the day, or any of the other horrors some of them endure. I suppose some people find comfort in their faith, but it doesn't make sense to me any more.
- sarsmile said...
Rob, I'm intrigued by your comment that you don't post in support groups. I can certainly see your reasoning, and the need to be sensitive. And yet I remember when Schuyler was first diagnosed (yes, I've been reading that long), how concerned you were about her future. Seems like you might have wanted to read posts from the parents of other Schuylers as well as from the parents of those more severely affected, as a way of understanding the range of possibilities that existed.
Whether or not that's appropriate obviously depends on the site in question, but I figured I'd throw that out there. - 8:02 PM
- MissMeliss said...
Have just devoured your book. After kicking myself for missing your signing in Arlington last month (I'm in Grand Prairie), I stumbled into a Borders (which I don't even LIKE) and there was an autographed copy on one of their displays.
Have lurked on your blog since sometime last year, and am always awed by what you write, but having the book was AMAZING.
As are you, Julie, and Schuyler. - 11:23 PM
Rob, I am a speech therapist from Israel who augments the communication of children like your doughter using AAC systems for the last 18 years. I read your beeautiful love story and was impressed how accurate and moving it was. I think your book is a gift in that it encourages parents for children with "Monsters" not to loose their faith but to revive it day after day. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Did you know that there is an International association called ISAAC which brings together parents, users, and professionals using AAC to discuss and share the knowledge?I am an ISAAC member and benefit very much profesionally attending conferences , seminars and being all the time up to date. - 11:38 PM
Just saw Including Samuel last night here in Rochester. I didn't see the reference to "words matter" in the movie (must have missed it?).
I went with a few other moms and we all agree (quite cynical we are), that the older grades become much harder for full inclusion. One of my friends asked if Dan will be continuing his story as Samuel progresses through school and Dan said he hopes to pick it up again at middle school.
We enjoyed the movie but felt we were once again in a speaking-to-the-choir moment. - 6:45 AM

Yeah, it's not in the movie, only in the printed guide that was included with the DVD. Not sure if that guide is being distributed at public viewings of the film.
