Design Article
Electronics in medical apps: Fertility monitor design
Asha Ganesan, Cypress Semiconductor
Let us review the two basic fertility sensing techniques (LH concentration measurement and BBT measurement) before going to the overall system design.
(i) Urine based LH concentration measurement:
Here a test strip is used which has three marked levels:
1. Stop line
2. Test band
3. Reference band
Initially, only the stop line marking is present in the strip.
A small amount of the women's urine is taken in a cup. The test strip is dipped into the cup in such a way that the urine level does not exceed the stop line marking (refer to Figure 3).
This strip is removed after few seconds and kept flat for a few minutes, after which appear the test band and the reference band. The reference band used for comparison, and if the test band is darker than the reference band, this indicates a higher LH hormone concentration. In other words, it indicates that the woman is about to reach her ovulation period. If it is lighter, this means she has not reached the ovulation period yet.
(ii) BBT measurement:
Here a good quality temperature sensor is used to measure the woman's body temperature every morning. As shown in Figure 2, the BBT remains low before the ovulation day. A sudden hike of about 0.2-0.3°C in the basal body temperature measurement indicates that the ovulation day should occur in a day.
Haha interesting application... Will be useful in some Asian countries with very low fertility levels.
With our current population growth I fail to see how helping more women get pregnant is a benefit. Now if you use it to help women AVOID getting pregnant, we can help lift a lot of people out of poverty.
Just my opinion.
An interesting view of the presented work, and something actually does work, such methods are used as an alternative to the pill (not LH measurement, temperature). It also has the benefit of reducing the likelihood of birth defects which given the impact on families and the community is another noble cause. Yes we should be reducing the world population (preferably to around 2billion) but if we don't reinvent our economy I'm afraid the outcome may be almost as undesirable.
@ EREBUS this is not the case in everywhere.. if you look at places like hongkong/japan/korea/singapore the TFR(total fertility rate) is much lower than the replenishment rate of 2.1. ie..these countries can potentially get wiped off in future. Ofcourse the main reason is social and cultural and not medical. but then, there is a small percentage who will have medical/stress related problems to whom things like this could be helpful.
Asha Ganesan
@EREBUS: Yes, this system can also be used by women who do not want to get pregnant. This can avoid the usage of contraceptive pills which may have some side effects.
@EEWIZ: Thanks for providing this statistical information. This is absolutely correct. I think designing such gadgets would be of great use in those Asian countries.

Maybe Mitt Romney's campaign team isn't so bad after all.
After months of criticism, much of it from fellow Republicans, the machine managing Romney's presidential bid has him gaining support in the final weeks of the race.
The latest polls show Romney catching or slightly passing President Barack Obama in both the overall race and in some of the battleground states still considered up-for-grabs and therefore vital to both candidates' chances.
Some of those polls also show a hike in Romney's favorability rating, indicating more respondents were supporting the former Massachusetts governor instead of simply opposing Obama.
The late surge follows a rocky period for Romney following the rugged Republican primary campaign, including an ultimately nondescript GOP convention and some unforced errors, such as his so-called 47% comments that were secretly recorded at a fundraiser.
Then, a strong performance in the first presidential debate -- coupled with a lackluster effort by Obama that night -- served as the catalyst for what the Romney campaign insists is a late surge with just over three weeks until the November 6 election.
Polling since the October 3 debate in Denver shows Romney moving up.
In the latest CNN poll of polls -- an aggregate of all the latest major polls -- Romney was slightly ahead of Obama by 48%-47% and pulled ahead of the president in the crucial state of Florida by 49%-46%. However, Obama maintained his lead in two other key battleground states -- by 50%-47% in Ohio and 48%-47% in Virginia. Most analysts agree that whoever wins two of those three states will almost certainly win the White House.
Rich Galen, a conservative commentator who worked in the past for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, said the rise in Romney's favorability numbers was due partly to support from right-leaning voters who don't like Obama but weren't yet sold on the Republican until the first debate.
"I was really struck by that because that is probably the first robin of spring that demonstrates how people are looking differently at Romney," Galen told CNN in an interview on Monday.

Thanks for so usefull software.
Excellent platform with a very flexible and modular architecture! Works perfectly and smoothly!
Great project, I hope that the authors did not stop to support it
i like it very much. easy to use and amazing. I love it!
I've been using this package for almost a year for work purposes; it was required for the project. I'm a design engineer, and normally use CATIA for design purposes. BRL-CAD and CATIA are about as far apart on the cost spectrum as possible: free to most expensive package out there.... So maybe my perspective isn't fair, but at the same time and frustration are costly. With that out of the way, I'd say... I'd never recommend using BRL-CAD for design purposes. It is too difficult to make simple changes and understand your model. There is no simple way to add standard design features like fillets. I haven't tried to export to IGES or STEP (formats that you'd need to provide to a machine shop to make your part) but based on my experience trying to import those file formats, I wouldn't have confidence in the result. All in all, BRL-CAD is a neat project and I'm sure there is a use for it, but I would not recommend it for design purposes.

Funny, but my opinion is that the election will be decided on domestic issues (who was it that said "it's the economy, stupid"?), not foreign policy issues.
"Social networking" is an oxymoron.

As we all know... when a post is quoted (even if the person is on ignore), one sees it.
This one I need to reply to.
GA was on the original ARP committee... chose to leave for personal reasons. It is a blessing and a curse to serve... it takes a LOT of time. Worst; it is a thankless job; lots of fussing goes your way and little appreciation... However: There is a lesson here:
The farther one climbs the ladder of service or authority... the more stress and struggle... and the more folks fuss over what you do. Now here is the lesson: It is that way with govt leaders.
We need to quit griping and being negative over everything an elected official does... rather roll up our sleeves and help rebuild this nation into what it once was...
"The land of the FREE, and the home of the BRAVE"
This starts with each of us choosing to do the right thing... for the country as well for ourselves.
Former POTUS John Kennedy (a DEM BTW) said:
"Ask NOT what your country can do for you, rather ask what YOU can DO for your country."
We need to take heed of those WISE words... swallow our selfish pride, and get busy making America what it can be.GA-HVAC-Tech

Wow! We've just had a discussion with different opinions in the ARP and nobody resorted to name calling!

Actually do miss it a bit (but not that much k) and was glad to play a part in the operation of this forum. But also for personal reasons i stepped down as I needed to spend time on other things. I don't mind saying there is a good group of people behind the scenes.
Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. Mark Twain
This is true but the resources are tied up at the top and the 99% are struggling to get by. When one individual can threaten so many people with job loss if they don't vote his way while he is building the largest mansion in the US something is obviously out of balance in the economy. This is not "class warfare" or envy it is just math - the ones with the bucks can afford to make the largest contribution - they have chosen not to. Wealth distribution in this country has not been so skewed to the top since the Robber Barron days. http://www.businessweek.com/articles...ote-for-romney David Sieglel has a right to his opinion but with his attitude it is obvious he is not interested in doing ANYTHING for his fellow countrymen. He is a great capitalist but a lousy American.
Obama lies too. He told us he was going to overturn many of Bush' policies but instead continued them or ramped them up. If anybody would continue Bush' foreign policies it is Obama.
No argument here, Obama is "staying the course" with the Bush Legacy concerning foreign policy, what concerns me is if we give the neocon bunch another run at an imperial USA things could get really out of hand.The last run got us involved in two unfunded wars, war crimes and a huge reduction in our freedoms.

Allow me to educate you.
83 percent of all U.S. stocks are in the hands of 1 percent of the people.
61 percent of Americans always or usually live paycheck to paycheck, which was up from 49 percent in 2008 and 43 percent in 2007.
66 percent of the income growth between 2001 and 2007 went to the top 1% of all Americans.
36 percent of Americans say that they dont contribute anything to retirement savings.
A staggering 43 percent of Americans have less than $10,000 saved up for retirement.
24 percent of American workers say that they have postponed their planned retirement age in the past year.
Over 1.4 million Americans filed for personal bankruptcy in 2009, which represented a 32 percent increase over 2008.
Only the top 5 percent of U.S. households have earned enough additional income to match the rise in housing costs since 1975.
For the first time in U.S. history, banks own a greater share of residential housing net worth in the United States than all individual Americans put together.
In 1950, the ratio of the average executives paycheck to the average workers paycheck was about 30 to 1. Since the year 2000, that ratio has exploded to between 300 to 500 to one.
As of 2007, the bottom 80 percent of American households held about 7% of the liquid financial assets.
The bottom 50 percent of income earners in the United States now collectively own less than 1 percent of the nations wealth.
Average Wall Street bonuses for 2009 were up 17 percent when compared with 2008.
The top 1 percent of U.S. households own nearly twice as much of Americas corporate wealth as they did just 15 years ago.
In America today, the average time needed to find a job has risen to a record 35.2 weeks.
More than 40 percent of Americans who actually are employed are now working in service jobs, which are often very low paying.
This is what American workers now must compete against: in China a garment worker makes approximately 86 cents an hour and in Cambodia a garment worker makes approximately 22 cents an hour.
Approximately 21 percent of all children in the United States are living below the poverty line in 2010 the highest rate in 20 years.
Despite the financial crisis, the number of millionaires in the United States rose a whopping 16 percent to 7.8 million in 2009.
The top 10 percent of Americans now earn around 50 percent of our national income.
While these numbers do not include 2012 I think you might be enlightened, then again maybe not. I am pleased that in your circle of acquaintances things are just peachy, they are indeed blessed but realize your small circle is not representative of the country as a whole.

Mario Lopez and Courtney Mazza (Michael Kovac/Getty Images for Green Works) |
Mario Lopez's wife Courtney is pregnant!
This will be the second baby for the "Extra" host and his wife, who were married last December in Punta Mita, Mexico.
The baby announcement was made on Lopez's show, which tapes daily at the Grove in Los Angeles, when his 2-year-old daughter Gia Francesca was seen wearing a T-shirt that said "Big Sister Gia." A baby shower for the couple followed, according to "Extra."
PHOTOS: The Hollywood baby boom
"I am the happiest father in the world," said Lopez, 39. "We cannot wait to welcome baby Lopez number two into our lives."
The child is due in the summer. The onetime "Saved by the Bell" star also hosts the reality competition series "The X Factor" and syndicated radio show "On With Mario Lopez," which airs in the evening in Los Angeles on MyFM (104.3-FM).
Lopez was previously married to "Doritos girl" Ali Landry, whom he'd dated for years, but that coupling was annulled after two weeks. Landry reportedly found "really strong evidence" that he'd been unfaithful.
The former A.C. Slater and his wife, then Courtney Mazza, began dating in 2008. They met while performing in Broadway's "A Chorus Line" in 2006, Extra reported.

The unit that will meet your needs is undoubtedly the BRS range (Bio Recognition Systems). You can get either the BioScan or BioLock models here. They are rentable, purchasable, ehternet networkable and have inexpensive add-on units after the first unit is purachased. www.bundyspecialists.com.au/time-clocks.php?id=1 Just read the spec sheets on the software as this is one of the biggest differences in price and functionality. An email with questions is always well responded to in my experience with Bundy Specialists.
If remote access is your biggest issue, then they also have a fingertec model that uses TCP/IP, RS232, RS485, USB Flash Disk port, Wifi and GPRS!! It's the bottom one at www.bundyspecialists.com.au/time-clocks.php?id=2#FINGERTEC iKiosk 100 |

Courthouses must be fully accessible, seismically safe, and designed, where appropriate, with a system of secure elevators and corridors for the transportation of in-custody defendants.
The Trial Court Facilities Act of 2002 initiated the process for the transfer and management of California's court facilities from the counties to the state. This transfer process was completed at the end of 2009.
Within that decade, trial court and county leaders collaborated with the Judicial Council to develop a 20-year facility master plan for each Superior Court. The master plan and subsequent five-year infrastructure plans, updated annually, identify and prioritize the need for repair, replacement, and expansion of court facilities.
Working in partnership with the Legislature and the Governor, the judicial branch has made a major commitment to funding new construction and renovations that will improve access to justice throughout California. The funding comes from court users statewide, without impact on the state's General Fund.
The AOC's Office of Court Construction and Management has undertaken one of the largest public building programs, totaling more than 50 courthouse projects at over $6.5 billion, as well as repairs and renovations to improve conditions in the hundreds of court facilities that have transferred to judicial branch responsibility.
Even so, the need remains great. The most recent five-year infrastructure plan identified another 100 capital projects which remain unfunded, and the AOC's assessment of courthouses not slated for replacement or major renovations highlights a legacy of neglect in these buildings. Over $600 million in unfunded facility repair projects has been identified, and this figure is expected to grow to over $1 billion once these assessments are completed.

We stayed for three nights. Roomy and clean, very friendly and helpful staff. Little bit outdated decor and poor kitchenette standard that doesnt meet requirements. But basically it is a good place to stay at. Good location.

SharePoint Document & Item Reordering 1.3.1221.4
SharePoint Document & Item Reordering is a new and powerful tool to customize lists and libraries according to the users' preferences. Imagine users need to access an item every day, or to prioritize lists according to specific requirements that cannot be met by SharePoint default sorting patters. SharePoint Document & Item Reordering allows for rearranging the order of items or folders in the lists, so most important ones can be sent to top, items that are no longer important can be send to bottom, or to any position in list or library. SharePoint out-of-the-box functionality does not support fully customizable rank rearrangement for list items. SharePoint users are allowed to reorder items or folders manually for link lists only, which has made the default tool even further less applicable for most users. SharePoint Document & Item Reordering (Formerly kown as SharePoint List Item Ranking) has considerably extended the native capacity of SharePoint by offering the followin ...

Is anyone going to the FlyLo show at the Fox in Oakland on Thursday? Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I was wondering if anyone knows what time I should expect the show to end, my girlfriend and I are trying to decide whether it would be better to drive from SF or take BART over.

You guys are making me interested in seeing Bukem. My resolution to stop going to shows every week has completely crumbled.
We should go... it's been a long time since we've had a proper outing, Robin.
(*I don't count Thursday nights where everyone runs home at 11).
It's being highly considered. The place where I usually stay is fairly inexpensive for that night, and it's only 1.5 miles away from the venue. And since it's on a Saturday, I can always make it to the city a bit earlier, and maybe we can all do some dinner/pregame/bar hopping.
I'd definitely be up for that.
can you guys post ticket link for Bukem when they're up? thanks

Thanks all for the info on Vessel - ended up checking out Sasha, and while I was a little disappointed in the set, the venue was as described and had a pretty good time.
On another note - have a few (as many as 3) TDCC club floor tickets for tonight @ Fox. Trying to help out some friends who can't make it so price is pretty negotiable - floor with fees and all is like $40 so definitely less than that! PM me if you're interested.

Hrm. Says not on sale.
Wow. I was really impressed by Ultraísta last night. The band sounded great and their songs played live we're a lot better then on record. Nigel and Joey really rocked it. Definitely one of my favorite shows of the year. They had a 12" vinly with remixes from four tet and mathew dear for $8 that I picked up. Probably the smallest crowd at the independent I've been to. Really enjoyed the opening act astronauts ect. Overall a very atmospheric evening. Also ran into toro y moi at the show. Asked him why there werent any sf dates on his up coming tour and he said they are gonna be either playing great american music hall or a couple nights at the independent.

Mundelein Culver's employee 'stunned' by viral Facebook thank-you
Chris Searles, manager Culver's in Mundelein, Libertyville and Grayslake, said he was stunned by a man's viral Facebook, which thanked Searles for helping a special-needs customer. | Special to Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: February 26, 2013 2:02PM
As Chris Searles drove to work at the Mundelein Culver's on Friday, he said his phone started "going crazy."
"People kept texting or calling and saying 'Do you know there is something about you on Facebook?,'" said Searles, who co-owns the Libertyville Culver's location and runs the Mundelein and Grayslake locations.
Searles doesn't keep a social media profile, so he was unaware that Round Lake resident Dan Foecking had snapped a photo of him behind the Mundelien Culver's cash register and speaking with a customer, then posted an essay titled "Great Customer Service."
Within 12 hours, nearly 40,000 people had "liked" the Facebook post and more than 6,000 had shared it with friends. Foecking's essay said:
"I took this picture at Culver's in Mundelein and I hope this employee doesn't mind that I post this, but I wanted to share an awesome story. The customer he is speaking with is a special needs man, and I watched and listened from my booth as he patiently and politely spent about 15 minutes answering all of his questions. He asked about the menu, prices, and even this employee even went as far as to retrieve a detailed menu so that he could explain some of the nutritional facts.
"This employee could not have been more polite and at no time appeared rushed, even though other customers were waiting in line. I wish I could have gotten his name, but he was not wearing a name tag. I did go on to the Culver's website and left my comments, so I hope he gets the recognition he definitely deserves. Sir, I tip my hat to you and pray more people follow your lead in life. Thank you. Feel free to share this, maybe it will make its way back to this employee!"
Thanks to the Internet, the two men did connect quickly and Searles said he was humbled by the post and stunned by the response.
"I grew up doing this and, to me, I wasn't doing anything special," Searles said. "It's nice to know doing what we normally do can make a big impact to some people."
Searles has worked for the company for 14 years, starting at the bottom and working his way up to co-owner and manager.
Foecking said he believes his post went viral because "it's just the kind of story that makes you feel good inside," adding that he hopes it's popularity will continue a bit longer.
"I wanted everyone to feel the way I felt when I watched it play out in front of me," he said.

Fear Factory-Invisible Wounds
The RE movies sucked, except degeneration, but they at least made half decent soundtracks.
Prince - Sign Of The Times
Half Life, Imogen Heap- So sad. D:
Yeah I heard it on Pandora Radio and it got stuck in my head. Addicting song.
Bounce~System of a Down
I'm listening to I Am In Love With You by Imogen Heap. Sounds like a song that was eaten by a computer, then regurgitated with lovely chunks of inter-bile... in a good way, of course!
Also, Telephone, by Lady GaGa ft. Beyoncé... I love the song, but the music video was a big WTF to me... It was a continuation of the Paparazzi video, right? That would make a lot more sense. "You never shared yo' honey with me."
I saw it on a Pink Vs Gaga coutdown that my mum was watching, Beyonce looked like she had jaundice.
If he had a brain, he'd be dangerous.
I hate Limp Bizkit, but he did an unusually good job on it I thought.
In Flames-Tilt
Its not just Limp Bizkit, its him as a person. He thinks he's better than everyone. He's started so much shit with other bands its not even funny.

D86 Election: Gorgol 'Would Hate to See the District Go Backward'
The board member who lost her bid for reelection last week said she's concerned some of the goals put in place during her four years won't be realized.
DeeDee Gorgol said she'll feel a little down after her last meeting as a District 86 board member in May. "It will be sad," Gorgol said. "You make a group of friends and have a common interest and goal and it will be sad because … I'm afraid maybe some of the goals we were putting out there won't be realized." Gorgol and Board President Dennis Brennan are current board members who failed in their bid for reelection last week running as part of a slate that also featured current board member Kay Gallo and Roseanne Rosenthal. Gallo was the slate's only winner, as the "Friends for District 86" slate of Victor Casini, Ed Corcoran and Claudia Manley swept the other three open spots. Gorgol said the results of the election were disappointing, …

Wonder if you are even in touch with reality. I don't have the issue any more, but The Hinsdalean did not print a misleading objection to your letter - it didn't print ANY objection to your letter. It ran a "clarification" (which was apparently in response to an objection), and then stated that the paper could find no evidence to support your claim.

You are here: Rotherhithe \ Arts & Listings \ Arts Events \ BIRTHDAY PARTY AT GLOBE
18 April 2008
The Globe celebrates Shakespeare's birthday with a host of weekend events on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 April as well as launching the 2008 Theatre Season Totus Mundus with a stunning birthday celebration by the River Thames on Wednesday 23 April. Events are supported by the Greater London Authority as part of their St George's Day celebrations.
On Saturday 19 April, Shakespeare's Globe, in partnership with Phoebus Cart, continues the tradition of Mark Rylance's Sonnet Walks. Walkers can buy a ticket for two tours of Tudor London: one starting in Westminster Abbey, and one from the site of Shakespeare's theatre in Shoreditch. Twelve sonneteers will entertain walkers as they stroll to Shakespeare's Globe.
Sunday 20 April sees the Globe throw open its doors between 12noon and 5pm for the annual Birthday Open Day.
The event is free to all and will include the internationally renowned Footsbarn Theatre Company performing in the Globe Exhibition. Footsbarn will be giving the public a taster of their anarchic new show A Shakespeare Party which will be specifically devised for the Globe Theatre between 23 - 25 May. Other activities in the exhibition include a chance to watch a screening of the Globe's 2007 production of Othello, take part in costume dressings, and listen to Globe musicians. Workshops will be available from Globe practitioners including a playwriting master-class by Ché Walker, whose play The Frontline will be premièring at the Globe this summer and an interactive cake decorating workshop for children. The Globe is giving participants the opportunity to tread the boards in the theatre and say a few lines from the bard onstage, as well as take part in a giant game of pass the parcel.
The climax to these celebrations will be a special Birthday Event on the River Thames at 6pm on Wednesday 23 April. A mini Elizabethan theatre will be transported up the Thames by boat from Butler's Wharf to Shakespeare's Globe with musicians and performers entertaining crowds along the riverbank. The Globe will then combine this special Birthday celebration with a production of William Shakespeare's most searching tragedy, King Lear, tickets for which can be purchased from the box office.
Saturday 19 April Sonnet Walks Venue: Shoreditch / Westminster Abbey £16/£13 concs £10. Time: 10.00am - 12.45pm (All tickets must be booked in advance, walks every 15 minutes)

great organic food, great coffee, great salads, great place, great la people, great service, delicious lattes
I think the vibe is cool, but this is definitely not a vegetarian restaurant or a healthy restaurant. They may seem like one, but they're not.
Terrible customer service, Un Kid friendly. Had our 2.5 year old who is great at restaurants, tried to order from the Kid's Menu a Turkey Panini, but asked them not to "panini" it because our daughter isn't really into melted cheese. They said they "couldn't" do it, and suggested we order a full turkey sandwich ($5 more, plus with all kinds of condiments that are not 2 year old friendly). Seriously? You can't "not" toast it? We asked if they could just put together the turkey and cheese sandwich, and just not grill it down. "That's not a panini, then" is what they told us. I've never heard of a kids menu that is unalterable. I get it if you are a 5 star restaurant unwilling to alter your signature dishes, but come on! A kid's menu item that you're not willing to budge on, and only willing to if we pay $5 more? Ridiculous.
worst bakery I ever been. the cakes are so sweet impossible to eat, I can not understand why Urth Caffe have such a great reviews
The food is NOT ORGANIC.
the way it says "Organic" prominently all over the restaurant caused many patrons to think the food is organic when in reality ONLY THE COFFEE IS ORGANIC.
The chicken, tuna, salads etc are NOT ORGANIC! And therefore it is not an "organic restaurant" - This wouldn't be such a big deal in most places but this is LA where people care very much about organic foods and knowing what they're actually eating.
go in the morning!.
it is little expensive,because parking is valet, but is worth if you go there in the morning.
i found that they sell one day old cakes for half price, called bake sale.
my favorite is matcha chees cake!
CROWDED NOT WORTH IT!. The taste is not too bad, but the wait is terrible. Suchhhh a long line and its not worth the wait. The smoothie i purchased was like 10$ almost and the sandwhich, which was supposed to be hot, was cold. The coffee is very pretty there though i must say. But who cares about appearance to wait that long!
great place. I used to study here while in Law School. great crowd, good food, love the outside patio!
More About the Scene Than the Food. Working your why through the patio at Urth Café is similar to walking into the cafeteria on your first day of high school; everyone is staring at you and judging, or, at least, it feels as if they are. Urth is definitely the go-to place for anyone in LA hoping to see or be seen. Aside from great celeb-sightings, this is a great place to pick up anything and everything from coffee and tea to pastries, sandwiches and salads.
Yummy Desserts.
Expect a wait at the West Hollywood location regardless of what time you go. The food is great, organic and fresh to order. My favorite is the Chicken Pesto Sandwich, anytime I take someone new and they ask for a recommendation, this is it. I am also a fan of the caprese panini as well. The chicken curry salad is a little heavy on the onion. The salads are light & fresh with light oil & vinegar dressing. All the coffees and teas are organic and strong. The spanish latte is a must try....so good!
If you go try to snag a table, but since its so busy don't be surprised if it takes 20m to get your food.
This is a celebrity hotspot, and Entourage is filmed here, but they will post a notification if they are closing for filming.
The togo cups are 100% compostable.
Loved it :). Loved the food, the coffee was delicious and the pumpkin pie was to die for ..

About two weeks ago my wife and I loaded up our crew and drove to Oregon.
Because if you have four kids age six and under, the logical thing to do is pile in a vehicle and drive 2600 miles round trip (approximately 40 car hours) to see the ocean.
Faced with having to choose between either embarking on such a trek or neutering a full-grown Bengal tiger with a butter knife, most level-headed individuals would turn and walk directly to the silverware drawer.
But we've never been the sort for level-headedness, so early Friday morning my wife and I began packing our suburban and ushering the kids toward their respective car seats in anticipation of our departure later that afternoon, and at precisely 7:00 a.m. Saturday morning we were on our way.
Experienced parents know that actually getting the kids into the vehicle and strapped in is one of the most aggravating aspects of traveling with minis. Invariably, just about the time that you're yanking the strap and cinching the last one down into his seat, you turn to find that two others have escaped.
It's mind-numbing. Fortunately, we had to go through this routine no more than 25 times each way on our trip to the coast.
But as I said, we did manage to get on the road by Saturday morning, and it wasn't long before Papa Smurf Syndrome set in.
Remember Smurfs? In nearly every episode Papa would lead Smurfette, Hefty Smurf, Rampant Hemorrhoids Smurf, Tourette's Smurf, I Swear It's Medical Marijuana Smurf, and the other Smurfs on a long journey in search of berries or to save No Concept of Personal Space Smurf from Gargamel and Azrael. Without fail, one of the Smurfs would ask, "Is it much further, Papa Smurf?" minutes into their journey, to which Papa would calmly reply, "Not much further, my little Smurfs."
And remember how after the third such inquiry (it's always in threes), Papa Smurf would snap?
"The next Smurfin' Smurf that Smurfin' asks me how much Smurfin' further is going to get a Smurfin' Smurf up the mother Smurfin' Smurf compliments of my size-Smurf Smurfin' left boot!" And then he'd Smurf a pull from a bottle of Captain Smurf and keep on a Smurfin'.
At least that's how I remember it. I was like seven.
Anyway, approximately 38 feet from the end of our driveway, Perpetual Motion, the 4-year-old, asked, "Dad, are we to the ocean yet?"
"Have you ever been able to see the ocean from our house?"
"Well, if you look out the window to your left, you'll see our house. So it's going to be a while. Take a nap."
It's those kinds of comments from your kids that at first blush seem cute and funny, but then you start to really think about what they've suggested and cringe.
Had we ever passed a large body of water while driving down the lane in front our house? Why would one suddenly be there? You sort of realize that your efforts to educate your kids are falling woefully short when they say something like that.
Another example from earlier in the summer at our local county fair: after checking out the craft exhibits and swarming the rent-a-clown, we walked through a building where the kids petted some rabbits and molested some goats. (On our trip to the coast we found that this is a fairly common practice for our kids when we visited a walk-through safari, although the teamwork demonstrated is admirable.)
As we walked over to another collection of stalls at the fairgrounds, I asked the kids what other animals we might see at the fair. The 6-year old, Slim, chimed in with pigs, Perpetual Motion offered cows, and then the Hellcat, our 3-year old, threw out whales, serious as can be. Kick Ass Wife looked at me and smiled. But I couldn't let it go.
"Whales, Hellcat? Oh wait, yeah, I forgot: the whale showmanship competition typically takes place after the penguin sale but before the giant octopus rodeo. Are you kidding me? We've probably read you a minimum of 30 different books about farm animals, we have a miniature farm set complete with red barn and farm animal start-up kit, and you come up with whales? How about horses? Chickens? Any of those ringing a bell? Even llamas would have put you in the ballpark. But whales? I'm disappointed, Hellcat. You need to go sit in the car and think about this a little bit."
Okay, so actually I just patted her on the head and bought her a snow cone, but I was a bit flabbergasted by whales.
But back to the trip. True to form, PM asked if we were to the ocean twice more before we even reached the on-ramp to the interstate, once when we were passing our local Wal-Mart. If this continued, I was going to be looking for a sheer cliff face to Thelma-and-Louise off of before we even hit the Wyoming border.
Then, suddenly, I had a devious-yet-brilliant idea that could potentially lop 38 hours off of our drive. I ran it by Kick Ass Wife.
"Hey, if the kids are asking if we are at the ocean yet, we can find just about any body of water, call it the ocean, and they won't know any different. 'Yep, this is the Pacific Ocean, kids. See all of those beached Jet Skis on the other side of the lake, er, I mean ocean? That's the coastline of China. Soak it all in, kids. Soak it all in.' We could save some serious coin, be home by nine tonight, and potentially avoid becoming a flaming scrap heap at the bottom of a deep ravine."
"Just shut the Smurf up and drive," KAW replied.
Where's a bottle of Captain Smurf when a fella needs it?

In addition to firearms, you'll also get a chance to take out some aggression on infected with a variety of carnage-creating melee weapons, from chainsaws to axes and even the deadly frying pan.

text: How is it fair that a man can go to a place of business and be assaulted by the employees. Is that fair? Today my husband went to RANDY BOHANNON USED AUTO in Rossville and two of the employees assaulted him for no reason. My husband was looking for some tires and the younger male tried to make a deal with him that he will sell them on the sly, but my husband asked to see the office manager. That is when he was attacked by these two men. When the police came the men accused him of trespassing and then continued to lie and change their story. My husband is a very upstanding person, hard worker. The two men that attacked him are probably illegal and nothing has happened to them is that fair in way, shape, or form?? I think not my husband has never been in any trouble. An honest US Citizen that works hard for his family and then this happens. We ask for justice in this case. Let these liars be held accountable for their actions. Why did these men not tell it like it is to their boss that they have probably been cheating their boss out of money for a longtime. I am sure that my husband is not the first person that this father-son duo have propositioned like this. He has been the most honest one and for that he was beaten and arrested. Maybe being honest doesn't pay, but I refuse to believe that. I believe in KARMA, and they will get theirs sooner or later.

What can you do with duct tape?
Marisa Pawelko of Winfield, author of "Crazy-Cool Duct Tape Projects," shows some of the bracelets she made out of duct tape. | Ryan Pagelow~Sun-Times Media
Updated: October 4, 2012 11:16AM
Duct tape, once relegated to post offices and junk drawers, has quickly become an icon of crafty chicness.
Strong, water resistant, and versatile, duct tape is the perfect product for creating, well just about anything. Still not convinced? Check out these crafty projects from some of my favorite duct tape crafters.
This craft comes courtesy of 11-year-old Rachel Peterman who created these pens as a way to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
You need:
- Duct tape (green plus any other color)
- Pen
- Cut six 8-inch strips of duct tape.
- Fold each strip lengthwise leaving about a quarter of the sticky side exposed.
- Begin rolling the first strip so that it resembles the inside of a flower.
- Take another strip of duct tape and surround the first bundle, replicating the many petals of a flower.
- Repeat this process with the remaining strips until flower is desired size.
- Attach the flower to the pen with a few pieces of duct tape.
- Cover the pen with green duct tape, so it resembles the stem.
Not only is this case perfect for adding pizzazz to any book bag, it also makes a great clutch and an even better conversation piece.
You need:
- Duct tape (any color)
- 2 large duct tape sheets or colored contact paper (available at craft stores)
- Velcro tape
- Embellishments (rhinestones, buttons or sequins)
- Nonstick scissors
- Ruler
- Strong adhesive
- Place both duct tape sheets on a flat surface.
- Choose one sheet to be the liner of the case and the other to be the outside cover.
- Trim about 1/2 inch off each side of the liner sheet.
- Peel off the backing of the outside cover sheet and place it, sticky side up, on your work surface.
- Center the liner sheet (colored side up) on top of the cover sheet. Note: To make this step easier, do not remove the backing of the liner sheet.
- Cut square notches on all four corners of the cover sheet and fold over the edges.
- With the liner side of the pencil case still facing up, attach Velcro tape to the outer edges of the pencil case.
- Fold the pencil case in half lengthwise, and then seal it by making sure the Velcro tape matches up.
- Use assorted duct tape and embellishments to make a pattern on the front cover.

- Use a strong adhesive to attach the circles in order of size (largest to smallest).
- Finally, add an accent piece to the middle of the rosette such as a button, sequin or rhinestone.
- Create a wristband by placing two long strips of duct tape to each other (back to back).
- Add a small piece of Velcro to the ends of the band to use as closure.

The ACES program offers students 5 levels of difficulty, each consisting of twelve weeks of instruction. This allows students to make the progression from Basic to College Preparation in 15 months. Students are given a placement exam upon arrival to determine which level they fit into.
Basic (Level 1):
Students gain confidence in the new language by building vocabulary and learning basic grammar and writing skills.
Intermediate (Level 2):
Students begin to explore more complex grammar and vocabulary. Students are introduced to academic topics and language to begin their adjustment to American College life.
High Intermediate (Level 3):
Students are exposed to academic English and start preparing for college entrance. The focus is on language acquisition while introducing students to the themes they will encounter when they begin college classes.
Advanced (Level 4):
Students learn higher level reading, grammar and writing skills. They are expected to speak with a high level of fluency and are exposed to more challenging vocabulary and texts with very few adaptations.
College Preparation (Level 5):
Students are shown the strategies they need to succeed in college courses. Heavy emphasis is given to writing and presenting at the college level. Students learn what is involved in the research and writing of academic reports and read materials with little or no adaptations. At this level students will have a very smooth transition to any of our degree programs.
