Alkali Composite Hockey Sticks Intermediate
The Alkali CA9 RPD hockey sticks are the flagship sticks offered by Alkali this year. The CA9 RPD stick uses the Vibration Dampening Coating (VDC) from head to toe giving the player increased puck feel as well as consistency while also reducing puck vibrations. This material has a slight rubber feel so the shaft and blade will have a grip texture throughout, the grip on the blade eliminates the necessity for tape too! The Intermediate length will be measured upon arrival but will be available in 75 flex.
The Alkali CA5 hockey stick is a solid, mid-range stick from the new roller hockey specific company, Alkali Hockey. The difference between this stick and the CA9 is the use of VDC carbon fiber weave which will increase the strength and durability of the stick without sacrificing weight and feel. It still features the same anti-slash protection and vibration dampening core blade for precision control. The intermediate stick is available in 75 flex.

Choking Rescue for Babies
Topic Overview
If the baby can cough or make sounds, let him or her cough to try to get the object out. If you are worried about the baby's breathing, call 911 .
WARNING: Do not begin the choking rescue procedure unless you are certain that the baby is choking.
If a baby can't breathe, cough, or make sounds, then:
- Put the baby facedown on your forearm so the baby's head is lower than his or her chest.
- Support the baby's head in your palm, against your thigh. Don't cover the baby's mouth or twist his or her neck.
- Use the heel of one hand to give up to 5 back slaps between the baby's shoulder blades. See picture A.
- If the object does not pop out, support the baby's head and turn him or her faceup on your thigh. Keep the baby's head lower than his or her body.
- Place 2 or 3 fingers just below the nipple line on the baby's breastbone and give 5 quick chest thrusts (same position as chest compressions in CPR for a baby). See picture B.
- Keep giving 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts until the object comes out or the baby faints.
If the baby faints, call 911 (if you haven't called
already). Then:
- Do not do any more back slaps or chest thrusts.
- Start CPR. If you do rescue breaths, look for an object in the mouth or throat each time the airway is opened during CPR. If you see the object, take it out. But if you can't see the object, don't stick your finger down the baby's throat to feel for it.
- Keep doing CPR until the baby is breathing on his or her own or until help arrives.

Expert guides regale guests with tales of the lighthouse's 200+ year-old past on tour that affords scenic ocean views
Recommended Museums & Galleries by Groupon Customers
Walking across the dock to Nauticus, visitors' eyes are inevitably drawn to the sleeping giant nestled up alongside it: the 850-foot battleship Wisconsin. One of the largest battleships ever built by the United States Navy, its massive, 16-inch guns lent their firepower to WWII, Korea, and Operation Desert Storm. The hulking warship is now retired, its gigantic mass a testament to both its immense power and the strength of the open ocean whose waves it once plied.
This dichotomy between peaceful repose and thundering wrath is fully embraced by Nauticus, immersing visitors in exhibits that explore the ocean and man's use of it at their most peaceful and destructive. On the Wisconsin, visitors can tour crew messes and officer lounges, getting a taste of naval life. Inside the center, permanent exhibits include Our Mighty Seaport, which delves into Norfolk's busy maritime commerce, with real-time updates on ships sailing past and an observation deck overlooking the port. Turning to nature, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Science on a Sphere exhibit simulates extreme weather conditions on a 6-foot video sphere. In Horseshoe Crab Cove, visitors can pet starfish, crabs, and sea urchins without having to take turns with nearby seagulls.
Following Memorial Day weekend, the Nauticus will host new features to their exhibits such as access to new interior areas of the battleship [Wisconsin], including the chapel, post office, a section of enlisted berthing, and dental office, a WWII era song and dance revue, and an interactive top secret mission on board the ship.
Rare-breed horses trot down green, tree-dappled streets, past rustic wood and brick buildings. As cracking drums and chirping fifes echo off ancient streets and the gnarled trunks of trees, a solider in a red jacket, boots, and military epaulets addresses a group of visitors clad in baseball caps and T-shirts. The historical interpreters and other staff of Colonial Williamsburg bring the restored 18th-century town's history into the modern era through live demonstrations, walking tours, and educational programs. The living museum town sprawls across a 301-acre Historic Area, which encompasses designated historic structures such as the opulent Governor's Palace, Capitol building, and Magazine, many of which are perched atop their original foundations. Within some buildings, interpreters explain the significance of various period furnishings such as medicine cabinets and original 1770s Twister mats.
Visitors can witness live demonstrations of blacksmithing, saddling, and carpentry in Williamsburg's 19 historic trades shops, or traverse galleries inside DeWitt Wallace Decorative Arts Museum, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum, and Bassett Hall. In warmer weather, the Historic Area's manicured gardens bloom with period-appropriate plantings, and a garden maze confounds explorers with winding hedges and resident gnomes who insist on reading maps upside down. On tours, guides lead visitors through archaeological collections or into a reenacted courtroom session, and at Great Hopes Plantation, interpreters provide glimpses into the lives and plight of African-American slaves. Other seasonal activities span hands-on children's programs, Revolutionary War reenactments, and fife and drum performances.
Apart from the number of respective members and guests, the benefits of the Otter and Crab memberships are exactly the same. Both grant you a year of unlimited admission—including express entry through the mythical members' entrance—and, if you travel in an especially large school, both grant up to four additional guests half-off entry when accompanied by a cardholding member (per day). Although prices vary, today's deal offers you a year's access to the aquarium at a cost comparable to a single day's admission for the same number of people.

Elite is down. Anyone know why?
Like (0)
I just went in to sign into elite and noticed it was down. Does anyone know why? Maybe they are adding clan operations?!?!
Hopefully they are adding something we were told we would have when it launched. Maybe clan ops? Who knows. We shall see when it pops back up.
I hope it's clan ops. That is pretty much the reason I bought Elite in the first place.
Que? Working pour moi!
It might be regional at this point? where are you located?
It's been down for the last half hour or so, I was browsing and it just shut up shop. Some kind of maintenance I'd presume or updates to the events.
It's down because...It's call of duty ELITE.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... That Made Me Laugh!!!
too true.
Its down for maintenance.
Hoping that it is down for the clan operations and then make everyone happy, you did say we was going to be able to level up by this.
Finges crossed
I'm with you! *Crosses Fingers*
"The ELITE website is currently undergoing maintenance for updates. We'll update as soon as we're back up."
This is what they said on Facebook.
i want 3 months free elite for takeing so long with ops
I'm with you. I feel like I have been suckered into buying an incomplete product. Not going to be a dead horse though.
and after being down 6 hours now i bet we still dont get clan ops
and after being down 6 hours now i bet we still dont get clan ops
well going on 6 hours now wtf. this pice will probly be down for atleast another day and we still wont get clan ops
well going on 6 hours now wtf. this pice will probly be down for atleast another day and we still wont get clan ops
yeah rite.but great wishful thinking.....
Call of Duty is currently down for maintenance.
You may want to keep an eye on:
Those sources will be announcing when the service is back up and running. We sincerely apologize for the confusion.
It's down because Elite is a pile of crap. I want them to relase some old maps to make up for this Elite Disapointment.
we are currnetly having technical difficulties whilst working on elite 2.0 for cod 9
dont worry your money is safe in our bank making us loads of interest
when we sell 2.0 you will see what what missed for not joining in the beta test during BLOPS
Well, ELITE's back up, and no Clan Ops. Of course.
Well true it's not got Clan Ops... but It also doesn't say Clan Ops Coming Soon, that either means:
A. They are Coming and they are preping the area for inclusion.
B. They want you to think A but in fact they decided they'll keep us in Limbo for another 6 months.
So is Drop 20, coming soon.

Bentley Continental GTC convertible breaks cover for Frankfurt
The next generation of Bentley's superlative Continental GTC convertible is set for unveiling at the Frankfurt motor show and is enhanced with more power and a modified chassis.
Output grows to 567 hp--up from 552 hp--from the 6.0-liter W12 powerplant. Torque also increases by 37 lb-ft to a rating of 516 lb-ft, reinforcing what Bentley has billed for years as a "wave of torque." The open-air four-seater is available for order now and it arrives late this year.
The last version of the convertible launched in 2006, and the British luxury maker has layered on several fresh amenities, including 20-inch wheels and two 21-inch designs as options. The aluminum front wings are seamless, and the interior features leather hides and wood veneers. Bentley says there is a wide array of color combinations to choose from, including 17 soft-touch-leather colors. There's also a neck-warmer feature for motoring in cooler conditions.
The chassis has been modified for what the company claims is a more dynamic open-air driving experience. Power is sent to the ground via all-wheel drive with a 40:60 front/rear bias.
"The GTC has always been the most emotional model in the Continental range and a showcase for Bentley design," CEO Wolfgang Durheimer said in a statement.

What does IIID mean by "information design"?
Information design aims at transforming data into high-quality information. The idX project made us aware that high-quality information must serve a purpose. We condensed our insights to IIID's tag line: Data transformed into high-quality information empower people to attain goals. Thus IIID should welcome submissions ranging from visualizations that help people understand undisputed facts, situations and processes for whatever imaginable purposes to information and information systems facilitating understanding as well as enabling goal oriented action.
Referring to the last of the listed evaluation criteria "Attractiveness and elegance of the designed information" shouldn't information designers restrict themselves to design well understandable and easily applicable information irrespective of its appeal and aesthetic value? Would the latter be really needed to empower people to attain goals?
I may quote David Hume from his undisputed A Treatise of Human Nature, first published 1739/40: "Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions". Thus, let's not forget about passions, which perhaps manifest themselves best through attractiveness and elegance.
DI Peter Simlinger, Director, IIID
In 2011, the International Institute for Information Design is celebrating its 25th anniversary. While many things have changed since its founding, the aim of IIID was, and still is, to promote and expand design knowledge and research. With 25 years of experience, IIID is recognized as the world leader in information design development.
The time is ripe for us to acknowledge the best in what information design has to offer which is why we are presenting the inaugural IIID Awards competition this year. The Awards competition will be held every three years, with the next competition taking place in 2014.
Organizer: IIID International Institute for Information Design
In cooperation with: Axis Magazine and the Taiwan Design Center.

At Sundance Aviation, shimmering fiberglass gliders soar up to 18,000 feet above see level as they cruise over the New Mexico desert. Pilots navigate gliders high above the air, riding thermal lifts in the summer and mountain wave lifts in the winter. Pilots offer easy-going, scenic tours as well as more acrobatic flights that take passengers on a series of multiple loops, wing-overs, chandelles, and deep stalls. Passengers can take to the skies in a modern fiberglass Grob 103 or the historic Schweitzer 2-33 that's powered exclusively by a furnace of handlebar mustaches.
Each GolfTec swing evaluation places client skills under the analytical eyes of a certified pro and high-tech monitors, conspiring to pinpoint bad habits and help pupils develop sound technique. From the comfort of one of the Uptown studio's climate-controlled hitting bays, players showcase their current swings while discussing on-course goals and grievances with their coach, who listens with the care of a gardener whose tomato tree is finally talking back. Additionally, each beautiful power draw or homely snap-hook gets broken down by GolfTec's patented golf-lesson technology, which mobilizes a futuristic vanguard of motion sensors, launch monitors, and high-definition digital video to provide precise swing data and inform a tailored lesson plan. Club-wielders depart their sessions with hard-won wisdom on how to improve ball-striking fundamentals, lower scores, and domesticate golf carts.
Leisure Bowl provides a clean, smoke-free environment for flinging heavy objects down lanes in a way that won't disrupt parades or injure tandem cyclists. Bowlers will enjoy honing their tossing techniques and pin-smashing prowess without building backyard lanes and attempting to convince census takers to reset the pins. In addition to enjoying the lustrous, buttery-smooth lanes, bowlers can grab tasty grub at JT's Deli and Pizzeria, a refreshing pint at Ed's Pub, and high-quality equipment at John Young's Pro Shop (none included with your Groupon, though).
When Eric Rose and Sam Hitman took over the Rosemarie Shellaberger Tennis Center in 2011, they acquired a 55,000-square-foot space spanning eight acres of land. Since the center's inception three decades ago, it has evolved into six indoor and seven outdoor Rebound Ace tennis courts, which push back on players' sneakers and stilettoes with a cushiony surface. Among the outdoor courts, a stadium court steals the spotlight with seating for up to 1,000 spectators, and four of the peripheral courts sport lighting for nighttime matches.
For adult programs, the center's staff of tennis pros captain private lessons and get hearts thumping during cardio tennis classes. They craft junior programs with youthful muscles in mind, honing hand-eye coordination at Pee-Wee Tennis and fostering competition as healthy as a brussels sprout with a therapist at the Elite Junior Tennis Program. After class, athletes can unwind in the lounge or atrium and peruse equipment from brands such as Babolat and Wilson at the pro shop.
Bead Fest Santa Fe unites do-it-yourselfers and arts-and-crafters during a four-day celebration of beads, jewelry—and for good measure—some more beads. More than 150 booths and tables set up shop for the event, each ready to restock repertoires with gems, stones, and a hodgepodge of other supplies.
In between exploring the sea of exhibitors, attendees learn about the latest techniques, tricks, and tools at nearly 100 all-inclusive workshops (not included with the price of admission). There, artists from around the country provide education on specific topics in classes such as Intro to Metalsmithing and Wire Weaving, where guests learn the craftiest way to escape prison. Free demonstrations, book signings, and other attractions round out the fest's collection of creative attractions.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, visitors would stop to rest at the historic El Rancho de las Golondrinas as they began or ended their long journeys along the royal road that stretched between Santa Fe and Mexico City. In the 20th and 21st centuries, Matt Damon, Salma Hayek, Val Kilmer, and the cast and crew of some 30 films used the ranch's 200 scenic acres and 34 historic structures as backdrops to their movies and personalized birthday cards. With preserved and restored villages dating back to the early 1700s sloping through a rural farming valley, the grounds collapse time, bringing the past to the present and the present to the past. Today, guests wander this living history museum to explore how colonial and frontier life was lived the Southwest. During a self-guided tour, visitors pick up or download a map of the ranch before weaving through a snapshot of history brought to life by villagers clothed in the styles of the time. Feet patter past a molasses mill, a blacksmith shop, and defensive towers where guards kept watch on the horizon and coordinated messages for passing UFOs. With a reservation, docents will lead you through the trails that cut through a landscape dotted with goats, sheep, burros, and horses, fostering an understanding of the culture and arts of historic New Mexico.

Average people, untutored in global security issues, might think it a bad idea to let two of the nation's top national security posts remain vacant.
Those average people would be right, but in so thinking show that they are alarmingly untutored in the ways of Congress.
When Defense Secretary Leon Panetta finally made good on his long-promised intention of stepping down, Obama, with reasonable promptness, named former Nebraska Sen. Chuck Hagel, a Republican, to be defense secretary. He would be the first non-former officer to hold that post.
Hagel had his confirmation hearing on Jan.31, and this week the Senate Armed Services Committee got around to confirming his nomination by a contentious 14-11 vote, with all of the opposition coming from Hagel's former GOP colleagues.
The Republicans have worked to delay a final vote on Hagel. They have stopped just short of a filibuster, which, with the current balance in the Senate, would probably kill his nomination and the search for a new Pentagon chief would have to begin again from scratch.
These are unnecessary and even dangerous delays in filling out the Obama administration's national security roster. The idea that lawmakers be required to stay in Washington until they finish their most pressing tasks has more and more appeal.

Get Your Flu Vaccine
Seasonal flu is contagious and can be very serious. About 5-20 percent of people in the U.S. get the flu each year. More than 200,000 are hospitalized each year due to flu-related complications such as pneumonia or dehydration.*You can help protect yourself and those around you by getting the seasonal flu vaccine as soon as it is available.
The flu season can start as early as October or as late as May. Because the flu vaccine is only good for one flu season, you need to get vaccinated each year.
It takes your body time to build up protective antibodies after getting the vaccine. That's why it's important to get the vaccine before flu season even starts. Everyone 6 months of age and older should get the flu vaccine. Talk to your doctor about what is best for you and your family.
Signs of the flu are fever, cough, sore throat, stuffy and runny nose, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue. You might also have upset stomach, vomiting and diarrhea.
A sick person can pass the virus to others starting one day before getting sick with symptoms and up to five to seven days after getting sick.
Remember to stay home for at least 24 hours until your fever is completely gone. The fever should go without having to take a fever-reducing medicine.
- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw the tissue in the trash.
- If you don't have a tissue, sneeze or cough into your elbow.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Or use alcohol-based hand cleaners.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
- Try to stay about six feet away from sick people, including those at home.
- Clean surfaces like bedside tables, bathroom counters, kitchen counters and toys by wiping them down with a household disinfectant. Be sure to follow the product directions.
- Stay home from school or work.
- Get lots of rest, drink plenty of liquids and avoid alcohol and tobacco.
- Do not give aspirin to children or teens.
- Use over-the-counter medicines to ease symptoms. Avoid using these medicines with children under 4 years old. Talk to your doctor about other choices for young children. If your child is younger than 5, or if he or she has a health condition, call your doctor and get immediate medical attention. These children may be at a higher risk for serious complications from the flu.
- If symptoms get worse, call your doctor.
- Your doctor may prescribe antiviral medications.

Revive yourself in one of three National Parks
Each of the national parks in the Nelson region has a distinct look and feel. Kahurangi is wild and huge, with a heart of solid rock. Nelson Lakes is elegant, calm and alive with birdsong. Abel Tasman is small, sea-washed and incredibly beautiful.
Read the full postWhat are New Zealand's rules about Free Camping?
Freedom camping or free camping is 'still' legal in New Zealand. However, because of the thoughtless actions of many campers, including those using campervans, the dumping of human waste and garbage, often near our waterways, is becoming a national issue. Unless the proper disposal facilities are utilised, freedom camping may soon become illegal, and that would be a great pity.

I remember the day I peed on a stick and shockingly read two lines. I remember the day we found out we were having a girl. I remember the long, difficult struggle of birth and the weeks and months following. The transition to being your mom wasn't an easy one but those are all memories now.
I have completely, utterly, hopelessly, passionately fallen in love with you, my daughter, my pixie, my joy, my pride.
You grow every day to be a person I am proud of. You create, you laugh, you rejoice. You show me what living with imagination is. You teach me to ride my bike in the grass because cement isn't necessary. You invite me in to your imagination of talking horses and pet shops. You warm me with your arms and your impossibly long legs, mygod how did they get so long, wrap around my waist when I lift you for possibly the last time of your life.
You love your brother with so much strength, allowing him still to climb in to your lap. You are patient with him, mostly, and I am grateful for your relationship. I watch you as you get on the bus, I send thoughts of strength and success as you smile out the window with your new adult teeth and wave the I love you sign.
You are faithful with your friendships, still enjoying each birthday with our closest and dearest. You are tender to your core and your love means more to me than a thousand successful clients.
One day I will successfully show you how much you've changed my life, LB. Until that time I will soak you up, each possible day, each available hug, each snuggle. We love you dearly. So. Very.
There's a theory of mine. Ok, it's not just *my* theory, I've actually read a book, watched a documentary and heard a famous comedian talk about it. It's called the "Pro You Decision" theory.
See, I'm a big believer of making your own fate. I think there's a lot of self fulfilling prophecy out there. If someone is always feeling like a loser who can't lose weight, I'm fairly sure they're going to be a loser who can't lose weight. If you take that same person and shift their mind in to a positive "I can totally lose weight! I'm able to make those decisions to move in that direction!" I think eventually it will happen. It's been my own experience in many areas of my life at least.
To get out of a spiral of despair, I try to make a Pro Me decision. It's a small decision, can be seemingly inconsequential, but necessary. This morning I chose to get up early, take a brisk walk, and start work early with a todo list in hand. It has shaped my entire day. One Pro You decision leads to another Pro You decision. It's not cosmic magic. It's the simple fact that by placing your mind in a positive position, you're more able to see the positive choices presented to you in a day. By working out in the morning I'm more willing to select healthier foods during the day. By selecting healthier foods I'll have more energy. The afternoon will be more productive because I have more energy and my productivity will boost my self confidence at work and help me feel satisfied when I return home. One small decision this morning will set the stage for an entire day of awesome.
What is your Pro You Decision?
Bird by Bird - A business plan
"Thirty years ago my older brother, who was ten years old at the time, was trying to get a report on birds written that he'd had three months to write. It was due the next day. We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas, and he was at the kitchen table close to tears, surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened books on birds, immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside him, put his arm around my brother's shoulder, and said, 'Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.' -Anne Lamott
I'm overwhelmed to a ridiculous state. Somewhere along the path of amazing, whilst traveling and producing and speaking, my cart became full of expectations, deadlines and impossibility.
"If you say no too often, Leslie, they won't ask you back to babysit. Be careful when you turn down a job opportunity." -Oma Flinger
I was 7 when I started my first business. A friend from down the street and I ran in to the woods beyond our houses and collected rocks, interesting twigs and other "potentially beautiful" items. We ran home, painted each carefully, and set out knocking on every door asking if they wanted to purchase our art for ten cents each. I made about a dollar that day peddling my work amongst the neighborhood.
At 10 I decided to run an in-home daycare for an hour a day at my parent's house. My mother wasn't a fan of having 12 children in our small home, so I set up the garage as a small "school" setting and offered to take children who lived near by at a small fee to teach them a play that we would perform at the end of the week. It was a cabbage patch kid reenactment set to the tunes of a record I owned. At the end of the week, parents came to watch the play and praised the sweaty mess of children I directed in the two car garage in Houston.
Having recently decided to take life by the unicorn horn (if you will) and start a new, more amazing, better freelance business than I'd ever had before, I opened up my contacts to accept new work. Happily, Joyfully, Thankfully work flew in the front door, even more than I knew I could take. My mother's words bubbled to the surface and her years of an incredibly strong work ethic and high expectations of her own life replicated in my own. I took the work, even when the deadlines were smashed together, with travel booking both ends, and said yes to it all.
I said YES to it all.
A good businesswoman can handle this, I decided. I'll sub-contract out what I can't do, I'll do what I want to focus on in the future, and I'll continue to grow because clients will be happy and my role will change to project manager slash mobile web prototype dev. This seemed the perfect plan.
I'm sure every tiny business owner thinks this at the start. But starting a business is like bringing home your new baby to an empty house that first day and suddenly it wakes up pissed. The invoices aren't paid, the subcontractor fails to do their work and the client is calling hourly asking where said work is.
I'm not foolish enough to think those who last beyond the first year of business did not work 80 hours a week at some points. I have great friends who succeed regularly and work diligently in their business that I model my own after. I know they, too, stay up nights in a row working, laboring, building because they are passionate in their lives and their futures.
"Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
It is this one fact, this one reason, I am still walking ahead, one foot at a time, producing code one tag at a time, writing this lesson one bird at a time. I've been drinking tea at midnight across friends who also care deeply of their work, listening to music and slamming furiously away at our keyboards. We share a goal, I their contractor, they my biggest fans, and we stay late, rise early, work diligently. I am away from my family but I am not alone. I am aching but it is not in vein. I am wary but it is not forever.
"Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." -Robert Collier
The solace I find in those who overcome is immeasurable. Each of those people who inspire me to be greater than that I am now, who achieve what I long to achieve, who share in honesty their own struggles and triumphs, who are transparent in their joys and failures, and who believe in me beyond what I think I am capable of, remind me that seeing the dawn again from this side of my laptop is worth this small sacrifice of time. One day my daughter will ask me about my work and I will tell her with absolute certainty, I love what I do, I love you more, but I love, absolutely love, my life. I hope she finds a passion worth staying up for. There is no other way to live.
Life is a mindset. Life can get in the way of living if you let it. Practicality. Reality. Analysis. Risk.
I do not sit idle well. Beyond what I assume would qualify me for major intervention in a public school system possibly including tranquilizers, I pursue ideals the way children pursue sugar highs. I crave them. At times it can be annoying, I'm sure. "Oh! LOOK! I have the opportunity to [go] [see] [do] this [thing] [place] [job]!" Sometimes I annoy my self with my own enthusiasm. The bubble, it rises quickly and pops easily.
There are risks in life beyond measure. Deciding to return to graduate school, to take that perfect seeming job, to raise children with your spouse; these are beyond resources the mind can grasp. Sleepiness, fear, failure. Real consequences to ideals that each begin as an enthusiastic mind-set.
But the precipise does not come once a lifetime. As you stagger through the rocky terrain of aging, stumbling, climbing, learning, the road twists back upon itself and forces decisions at each turn. Do you jump or do you side step?
I? I jump. And I don't look back.
A letter came in the mail today. I was reminded about a generation so much greater than ours. While we are sending emails, incapable of being bothered by the post-office, my Great Aunt Marcy sent my son a card for his 4th birthday. It's not just a card this time, it's a reminder. When she lost her husband of 50 years I couldn't be bothered to send a single thing while she, in return, never once forgets a birthday of her great, great grandnephew. I couldn't bear to open the card and see only, "Love Aunt Marcy" instead of adding "and Uncle Charles" to the second row.
I stood at the back door and cried.
Earlier today I was reminded that while I have "friends" on facebook I don't know what they're up to. People are having babies, graduating, changing jobs. All while I sit and stare at a computer screen 8 hours a day and wrangle children in my "spare" time. There is a book deal! There is traveling! There are speaking proposals to be done! And yet, my kitchen sits neglected, my friends grow entire human beings and my children await another year of life and summer and fall.
My Uncle Charles died while I was in the middle of a travel spree earlier this year. His life was a good one, he was a strong man, although handicapped by a motor cycle accident many years before I was born (the least reason of which I refuse to let Mr. Flinger purchase one of those death traps). I knew him as 100% amazing, strong and intelligent, always a proud father and grandfather, uncle and husband. He was old forever, since I was ten perhaps, endlessly aging at an impossibly slow rate. He would live forever, I thought, because they do: Your family. They live forever and you forget how short and unforgiving life truly is. Thirty years is nothing to someone in their fifties. They've conquered teen-age years, early adult, middle age. They are forever etched in their families mind as equally old: always the same, un-aging until the day they suddenly die reminding you of reality.
So it was that I did not make my Uncle Charle's funeral. Traveling from Dallas, to return to Austin for SXSW, there was little time between. San Antonio felt a decade away, a rent-a-car, two young children unable to see their own mom. My Aunt had her family, her nieces and nephews, my aunts and uncles, her daughters and sons. She was loved and my Great Uncle Charles was rejoiced and I, from afar, joined them. Until this moment I did not think twice. My family needed me home. My work needed me present. My children wanted their own mother.
Still, only two months later, a card arrived reminding me that I will never be your Aunt Marcy. I will not ever fill the shoes of my Grandmother. I will not walk in the ways of those so much more wise, those who love beyond the now, those who see beyond the years. There is reason to live close to those who age before you: to live near extended family. To understand the wisdom of years and wrinkles that we can only imagine. At mid-thirty my age feels heavy. I feel the burden of time. Speaking to those whose lives span eternal decades remind me: a card, though simple, scribbled with ink, and stuck with a "forever" stamp, is more than just a card. It is an entire mindset of love and forgiveness: One I hope to live up to one day.
"Um, do you have sage?" I ask at Whole Foods. It seems logical that if one would need something to cleanse spirits, Whole Foods would have it.
You know: Hippies and all that.
"You mean for burning?" I clearly don't know what I'm talking about. I think you burn it. I'm not sure what I'm looking for but I've been told by at least four people to try a sage cleanse for our house so this year will be infinitely better than the last. Sage cleansing. I couldn't even bother to look it up before I go marching in to Whole Foods to buy it.
"Here you go," says the thin, purposefully unkempt girl working at the Yuppy-Hippie-Overpriced-Grocery-Store. She leaves and I'm faced with a decision; two small sage sticks or one large stick? "We need all the cleansing possible," I mutter and grab the biggest sage stick I can find.
It sounds cheesy, and it is, I'm sure. Sage cleansing our house? As if I believed in spirits and karma and life forces and such. Bah.
Except, ..... what if?
Mr. Flinger and I decided to try our very own Mind Enema this year. After two coincidental clicks pointed us to The Secret, the documentary, we watched with small cynicism and large wonder. "Well isn't THAT ridiculous," Mr. Flinger says at the close. "But, what the hell, right?"
Right. This is how we embrace our future. "What the hell!"
What the hell indeed.
So going forward, decided to think only positive thoughts. "Think about what you WANT not what you DO NOT want." This is my mantra.
"I will.. I am.. I shall… I have…" Not "I don't.. I won't… I refuse… I hope… I fear…"
It's such a subtle adjustment, such a tiny switch. The answers come quickly and quietly.
"I miss Yoga. I will find a new Yoga studio," I said during Kick Boxing a month ago. Two days ago a new friend informs me of the new Power Yoga studio down the street. It's amazing. It's perfect. My new friend and I hit it off on yet another level and I proudly add her to the list of people I'm thankful for.
The list is growing with my appreciation and joy.
"The Condo will close." I say it with confidence. I do not jinx it. I am not afraid to say it with pride. The Condo Will Close. The home we have been selling for nearly a year is ready to go to new hands. The home we brought our baby boy home to is ready for a new family. The home we first knew here so far from our friends, became a place of familiarity, friendly playdates, many holidays. It now goes to a new set of memories and we let it go. Friday: The Condo Will Close.
We celebrate.
The list goes on and on. We say things with confidence and power and love. We declare our lives as worthy and joyful. We tell our family they are loved and strong and beautiful. We work together, actively making goals reality.
"You're working so much." "You're always working." "It sucks you have to work so much." I've heard this from no less than 18 people in the past month. I'm working, working a lot. I'm fulfilling my full time job and a part time freelancer job on top of being a mother and a woman who strives to work out and find harmony. Harmony in the midst of chaos and deadlines and bills. Harmony and Joy.
I *am* working too much but I am thankful for it. Working too much right now is the appropriate solution. It's not forever, I tell my children. Mommy has to work a lot right now because we need it. Right now I am thankful to have venues to bring in money, to get our family in a new situation, to grow beyond the last year of turmoil. However much the world tries to get us down, I am thankful for the opportunity to prosper.
We are prospering. In spite of all the financial heart-ache, emotional frustrations, negative energy surrounding us: We. Are. Prospering.
I went for a run today. I looked up as the clouds parted for an entire twenty minutes. The sun spoke down to my skin with kisses and warmth. Joy. Happiness. Heaven.
How are we doing, you ask? We are fine. We are. Perfectly. Fine.
I've written about The Red Tent before. I loved this book about womanly camaraderie based in fictional ancient biblical times. It's the sort of book that makes a lady a feminist. You practically wanna shout to your random sisters-of-the-hood from across the street, "YOU GO HONEY! YOU CAN DO IT! WE FUCKING BLEED ONCE A MONTH AND STILL TACKLE THE WORLD!" Then you high five a million angels and she high fives them back. Lady angels, of course.
Or maybe that's just me and possibly Liz Lemon.
Consider this the eloquent transition from The Red Tent and 30Rock to how my friends ended up in a kitchen with our underwear on.
Some good friends of mine decided to do a weight-loss challenge together. A few of us gained a few pounds (cough seven) over the holiday and wanted to get back to our sleek, healthy selves but with some good ol' competition with money involved. Nothing strengthens friendship like placing money between it.
So we gathered together in the kitchen of my friend's house with a scale, a camera, and a tape measure. We stripped down to our "summer" selves, bathing suits, small tanks, bare tummies. We measured and weighed and posed.
It was a scene our children watched in both fascination and utter horror. "Our moms have LOST IT," I overheard one of the three year olds say. A six year old bent down, "You just figured this out?"
We laughed and jiggled and confessed. I noticed how often we would want to cut ourselves down while building the other ones up. Someone would disagree, "oh, no no, you're fine! You can do it!" and we would write down our stats and continue on, not a single judgement on the face of those in the room.
It was cathartic. We not only shared our insecurities, we showed them to each other, and the other girls? Didn't wince once.
The first step to healing is being open to your people about where you're at.
Afterward a friend texted me, "That was fun! Like Acid Rain!" We laughed about it, how insane we were to stand there in the kitchen, six women in our skivvies measuring and jiggling. At the same time, we all agree, it was fun in a way. Healing. Refreshing. Accepting. There's something about knowing you're accepted by other people to begin allowing you to accept yourself.
I love those ladies like sisters in a Red Tent. Women who you call to when your life is tough, when you feel fat and frustrated, when you hit financial rock bottom. These are my village of women and we proved to each other this week that there is no place we won't go together. Even in our underwear.
When my son was a preemie, we were told RSV IS THE DEVIL.
I was a paranoid, germ-a-phobe literally walking around making people Purrell before they could LOOK at the baby. If I had face masks, I would've made you wear them.
No, I'm serious.
Now I'm much more relaxed with germs. "Bah! It's the floor! Whatever, just wipe off the gummy bear and eat it anyway."
My kids go to public schooling institutions. There's not a lot I can do to prevent illness anymore. I'm over the whole "baby in a bubble" thing.
But mothereff I need to revisit that.
We have The RSV. Most notably, *I* have The RSV. My son and I share hours of hacking while my daughter is recovering. It's estimated that RSV is the most common germ that causes lung and airway infections in infants and young children. Apparently I'm a big baby because dang, yo, this shit sucks.
Whiskey does not even cure it.
So excuse the hacking and snot-dripping while I briefly recount our Christmas.
Ready? :: cough ::
Christmas Eve was delciously amazing. Wonderful chicken, mash potatoes, stuffing: a real foodgasm. Vdog rocked dinner.
The gifts were even better.
We let the kids get up at 5:45 AM because we're sadist like that. Self sacrifice! FOR THE LOVE OF CHRISTMAS. The boy joyfully informed us that our house did not crash under Santa's weight (apparently there was some concern over Santa's recent weight gain).
The toys were played with, the packages were ripped and by 6:04 AM Christmas was over.
Like getting lucky. If you now what I mean. :: Elbow Elbow Nark Nark ::
*Passed out and everything if her new quilt*
Later in the day the gingerbread men were mutilated, the Wii was used for Man Bonding, and mass quantities of Spinach Dip and Chocolate Vodka was consumed. You know, the traditional Chocolate Vodka? Wait, it's not? Oh, but it should be. OHMAHGAWD.
Now the tree is raw like our nostrils after blowing. But we are thankful and happy to have such friends surrounding us, love abounding around us and a new year to look forward to. Here we go, folks. Twenty-Eleven. May you not suck half as bad. :: hack cough hack ::
I've been sleepy since I was 16 years old. The first doctor I saw, during cross country season my Junior Year of High School, dismissed my complaints. "Look," he leaned forward, his hands resting on this thighs, smelling of soap, "You're not tired. You can't be tired. You run 5 miles a day and get straight A's. You're not tired."
But I *WAS* tired.
I continued to be tired and get dismissed for the next 19 years. I slept through college. Literally. I fell asleep regularly on my books in the library, drooling between pages of my Physics book. I went to bed at 9PM every night and fell asleep during movies my roommates and I would rent. I took three hour naps regularly and barely made it through until evening.
After having our daughter, I was attempting sleep following the 24 hours of labor, emergency C-section, medicated debacle. My oxygen monitor kept rining and a nurse would have to run in and reset it. I was frustrated, tired, and not able to sleep after 30 hours of exhaustion. "Has anyone ever talked to you about Sleep Apnea?" one nurse finally asked. "No?"
In fact, nobody would talk to me about it again for years to come. Doctors explored yeast imbalance, gluten intolerance, PCOS, Chronic Fatigue and so on. I've taken hormones and pills. I've done diet after diet to increase energy.
Still, though, I was sleepy.
At the urging of a very dear friend, I signed up for a sleep study. She's probably the seventeenth person to tell me to do it, but it stuck. She's just sort of that influential. Or that good at nagging. Either way.
I went in, got hooked up to a thousand wires and went to sleep. I say "sleep" not in a traditional sense but in a "wow, this is a lot of crap hooked up to me and I CAN'T ROLL OVER WHERE AM I WHY IS THIS UP MY NOSE" sort of way. Apparently it was just enough, though, for them to get a read on my sleeping habits.
The next morning I was standing talking to some random dude checking me out (literal and figurative here) at the grocery store. As he scanned the items in to the cart, he was staring at my boobs. I got annoyed, made light small talk and walked away thinking what a perv he was.
I got in the car, looked in the mirror and found what one may think is a hicky but by some sort of big mouthed gorilla.
It was the remaining redness from the wires the previous night.
Later in the afternoon I headed in to get my final diagnoses. Apnea. I have Sleep Apnea. I stop breathing TWENTY-SIX times an hour. Idealy you stop breathing, oh you know, NEVER. But apparently anything less than 5 times an hour is acceptable.
No wonder I've been tired for 20 years. Twenty. Years.
"You'll be wearing a what to bed?" Mr. Flinger asks when I tell him the diagnoses. "A CPAP machine" I say. He looks at me and I know what he's thinking, "You mean, like the thing Baby O had hooked up to him when he was in the NICU?" "Ayup" I reply. "Wow.. um.. that's.. uh.. sexy…"
I realize I'm going to look like something out of some sci-fi movie at night now. "Hey Baby, come on over here and.. wait, hangon.. let me move my mask, oh, sorry, I didn't mean to hit you with that tube… oh hangon, the air is blowing on us, just a sec…." I get that I'm at my mid-thirty sexual peak and I'm royally screwed, not in the good way, of having any normal nights again.
But you know? Maybe I can use that. Something out of a sci-fi movie, eh?
Yea, that works.
But oh, this did make my day.
Thank you, Sincerely, Hello, Yo Yo,
Bites Finger.

The High Court has upheld the conviction of a man for publishing material on the internet connected with terrorism.
In 2008 Belal Saadallah Khazaal, a former Qantas cabin cleaner, was convicted in the Supreme Court of NSW of making a document connected with assistance in a terrorism act.
The charge concerned an electronic book compiled by Mr Khazaal in 2003 which advocated assassinations, described killing methods and identified assassination targets.
Under Commonwealth law, Khazaal had to show a reasonable possibility that the document was not intended to facilitate assistance in a terrorist act.
Mr Khazaal was sentenced to 12 years' imprisonment, with a non-parole period of 9 years.
He successfully appealed to the Court of Criminal Appeal, a majority of which found Mr Khazaal had shown there was a reasonable possibility the publication was not intended to facilitate assistance in an act of terrorism. The court overturned Mr Khazaal's conviction and ordered a retrial.
The Commonwealth appealed to the High Court, which today overturned the appeal court's decision, unanimously finding the evidence Mr Khazaal had pointed to did not suggest a reasonable possibility that the making of the e-book was not intended to facilitate assistance in a terrorist act.
The judgement reinstates Mr Khazaal's conviction and sentence.

Meet Elizabeth Chu Richter, born in Nanjing, China, raised in Hong Kong and Dallas Texas, Richter is CEO of award winning firm Richter Architects. Named as the "Newsmaker of the Year" by the Corpus Christi Caller-Times in 2002, the newspaper recognized that "… [Richter] has done award-winning work to educate the public as to why architecture matters."
