Rookie New York police officers shot and killed a 14-year-old boy before dawn Sunday as he chased and shot at another young man, authorities said.
Two recent Police Academy graduates heard gunshots around 3 a.m. in the South Bronx, authorities said, and saw 14-year-old Shaaliver Douse chasing another young man and holding a 9-millimeter handgun.
One of the officers told him to drop the gun, identifying himself as a police officer, authorities said.
When Douse refused, police said, one of the officers fired, striking Douse in the lower jaw. He was pronounced dead at the scene, where a 9-millimeter handgun was found. Police photos show the weapon lying on a sidewalk, covered in droplets of what looks like blood.
Surveillance footage released by the NYPD shows a young man dressed in black standing outside a convenience store. He bolts when another young man, wearing jeans and a white T-shirt, begins running toward him.
Douse's target was behind the two officers involved in the shooting, New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said at a televised news conference Sunday. He said it was unclear whether Douse fired at the officers or at the man he was chasing.
"We have someone armed with a gun shooting at someone who apparently does have a gun," Kelly said. "The conclusion of that could have been that the young man he was chasing was killed. These officers stopped that from happening."
Douse's aunt, Quwana Barcene, told Bronx News 12 that her nephew attended Smith High School and was returning from a New York City Housing Authority-sponsored party nearby when he was shot. She denied that he had a gun.
"He was just a boy, and you know what boys are like," she told DNAinfo New York. "But the boy don't smoke, the boy don't drink, he was not a gang member."
In May, Douse was arrested on a charge of attempted murder after he was accused of shooting a 15-year-old boy in the shoulder at a Bronx gas station. The Bronx County District Attorney later dropped the charges.
A city official told the New York Times that Douse's foot pursuit on Sunday could have been linked to the shooting in May. The victim's gang, the Lyman Place Crew, was warring with Nine, a gang with which authorities said Douse may have been involved.
The two officers involved in Saturday's shooting, ages 26 and 27, graduated from the Police Academy in July and had been on the streets about a month, police said. They were working for a police program that places rookies in high-crime areas.
The officers, whose identities were not released, were taken to the hospital to be treated for trauma and ringing in their ears, authorities said. No other injuries were reported.
"Do you know how it is to bury your child, before they bury you?" Douse's aunt told local media, adding that her nephew was an only child. "There needs to be an investigation into what happened here. You get told one thing, another thing, another thing, but no full story."
An investigation is ongoing, Kelly said.

For 11 years now, Acker Robison Realty has been helping businesses around the Memphis area with their commercial real estate needs.
The boutique firm, founded by Michael Robison in 2001, handles the full gamut of commercial brokerage services, representing landlords and tenants, purchasers and sellers in the office, industrial and retail sectors.
Though he is firmly entrenched in the real estate profession today, Robison got his start in the working world in a very different capacity.
"I worked on Front Street in the cotton business for about 10 years," he said.
But when the cotton industry experienced a downturn, Robison decided to make the change to real estate, and in 1989 he left Memphis for Florida. His stepfather worked for a real estate consulting firm in Fort Lauderdale, and Robison joined him there to learn the business.
Two years later, he returned to Memphis to ply his trade, and by 1993, he was employed with FedEx's properties department. At that time, Fred Smith's giant was expanding, and that kept Robison busy.
Michael Robison and Acker Robison Realty specializes in commercial real estate brokerage and consulting relating to office, industrial, investment and retail properties.

"I was involved in both the World Tech Center project and the corporate headquarters," he said. "Most brokers don't have the luxury to work for a big corporation and work on deals of that size. It was a very educational experience for me."
By 1998, he had learned all he could from working at FedEx and decided it was time to move on. He spent a brief time at Trammell Crow Co. before moving to an economic development post at the Greater Memphis Chamber, where, over the course of three years as the Collierville liaison, he oversaw that city's growth.
"Then I decided it was time for me to hang my own shingle and move out on my own," Robison said. "It was pretty frightening to give up a regular paycheck."
But ultimately, the 2001 decision to be his own boss proved to be the right one, and Acker Robison has remained successful through the economy's ups and downs.
"Real estate is a tough business," Robison said. "You have to go sell yourself to someone, generally, to get a listing or a representation agreement. But at that point, you haven't yet made a dime. You just have the opportunity to make a commission. So, the field of real estate is unique in that respect."
Even though the licensing agencies do not make a distinction between residential and commercial, Robison noted there are vast differences between the two disciplines, and he also pointed out the distinction between commercial sales and commercial leasing.
"When people find out I'm a commercial broker, they always ask me, 'Have you had any sales recently?'" he said. "Well, the bread and butter of commercial real estate is not really sales, unless you're in investment sales, which are generally done by larger brokerage firms. The bread and butter is leasing."
–Michael Robison Founder, Acker Robison Realty
Robison said his specialty is connecting commercial property owners with the right tenants, and vice versa. And it has kept him thriving in a slumping marking.
"I just try to be honest and sincere and explain my expertise and describe what I can do for them," he said. "But you have to get them to open up and tell you what their needs are so you can fully understand."
In the future, Robison said he hopes to expand his company by representing more tenants as the market improves.
"A lot of people miss out on adequate representation," he said. "When you try to explain it to them, it's much like if you're trying to buy a house, you can go stumble around yourself looking for properties and read the paper. But it behooves you to have an agent who has access to a database of available properties and understands the market.
"Having grown up here, and being in this business for close to 25 years now, I've got a good handle on what the market rates are; what you can expect to pay, rent-wise; what kind of concessions and incentives are available out there; and what the competition is offering, as well as awareness of where the heavy traffic counts are for retail."
Despite the difficulties presented by the current economic downturn, Robison said he remains bullish on the Bluff City and its commercial real estate market, thanks in part to the arrival of a new interstate looping the metropolitan area.
"We face some income and demographic challenges," Robison said. "Memphis doesn't have a lot of disposable income. So there are a lot of parts of this town that are going through a renaissance of re-tenanting. But it's a great city. I've lived here most of my life. I feel like there's a lot of potential for growth here, especially with the coming of I-69. I think it's going to be a great boon to the vicinity and spur a lot of growth."

Mike Dunlap called out to his son, Holt, in the other room on Friday to see if he could come into his new office, work the remote and find the Gonzaga-Oklahoma State NCAA Tournament game on the flatscreen TV.
He may have been on the job only about a week as Loyola Marymount's new head basketball coach, but Dunlap knew the value of multi-tasking while keeping a West Coast Conference rival in his sights.
There's been enough zigging and zagging in Dunlap's career but his return to LMU, from where he graduated in 1980 and spent the following five years an assistant, covers a wide-ranging traffic circle of experience.
The 56-year-old from Fairbanks, Alaska has hit nearly every corner of the basketball world — attending a semester at Pepperdine before veering off to L.A. Pierce College for two years, coaching in Australia, winning titles at Thousand Oaks' NCAA Division III Cal Lutheran and D-II at Metro State in Denver and years as an assistant at USC, Iowa, Arizona and Oregon. Lately, it was more higher-profile exposure in leading St. John's through a full season as well becoming as an employee for Michael Jordan as head coach of the NBA's Charlotte Hornets.
Dunlap has landed in a familiar setting, even though much has changed in the 35 years since he played at LMU. The Manhattan Beach resident explains:
Q: How do you usually spend NCAA Tournament time in March if you're not involved in it? Watching game after game like everyone else?
A: I'll watch as many as I can, and what I can't we'll record them and I'll go over them, slow 'em down, maybe pick up something. I'll find a Virginia game (for coach Tony Bennett) because I can always learn from him, as I did with his dad (Dick Bennett). Bo Ryan (at Wisconsin) is another one who's extraordinary, as well as Tom Izzo (at Michigan State) for rebounding techniques. I'll watch plays coming out of timeouts from Mike Krzyzewski, who is exceptional. I'm always trying to extrapolate things from them. Same as with watching Mark (Few, the Gonzaga coach).
Q: Coming off what many would consider to be the top of the coaching mountain — a head job in the NBA — must give you some experience that can carry a lot of weight. Does any of that translate to college?
A: There's the study of the pick-and-roll, both offensive and defensively, going from a 40-minute game to 48 minutes. It's almost English versus French, so different. There's also the management of players who are not exactly going to what you say and when you want it done. You have to use all kinds of angles to get them to do. Those are the things that really tax a pro coach. I never made the NBA my dream. I just got asked and I knew I needed to have that tool in my tool box. I knew that by the time I was done with my career I didn't want to turn down a head job in the NBA and have that regret.
Q: What was the biggest lesson in Charlotte?
A: Managing an NBA game, going through that kind of a season (a 21-61 record), not becoming negative, not having some big blunder where you're throwing a fit because you're getting pounded in a game. You have to learn to get through a difficult time, keep your poise and stay positive. And then, calling games night in and night out against guys like (Gregg) Popovich, you can only get better. Now on the recruiting trail, you can set yourself apart from everyone in the WCC because you've been to the NBA, where most kids want to go. I can tell them that I've been there and this is the road you need to travel. That carries its own power.
Q: And you can say, 'I know Michael Jordan.'
A: Everybody wants to hear about that. When you're working for him, day in and day out, you can't be affected, you have to go along with your business. The things that stand out about him, one is his self-deprecation. I never saw him in the time he was around the office and the things he did as the owner and president where his attire wasn't his gear. And he has great gear but he never dressed up. He didn't want to be treated different than the regular Joe and he works hard at his ability to just sit and put away everyone else's anxieties they might have about being around him. I loved how he worked at being humble. He's also so smart. He knows how to size up a room. He knows numbers; he can spit them out like crazy. Mathematically, I thought he was brilliant. I also had a sense that he has an idea of the big picture and where he wants to go, whether it's his other businesses or how he wants the rest of his life to be. He has a real control of it.
Q: Did he have to be the one who came in at the end of your season and send you off?
A: He wasn't at that meeting, and I think he has such a big heart that those kinds of things are incredibly hard for him. I have heard that, I've experienced it now.
Q: In a career you spent time coaching under George Karl, Lute Olson, George Raveling, Steve Lavin, Ernie Kent. Did any of that rub off on you that you can define?
A: The guy I worked for here, Ed Goorjian (LMU head coach from 1980-85 when Dunlap was a new assistant) helped me the most because he got the plane off the ground and he introduced me to John Wooden and Pete Newell. I became part of the Newell family. He really took me in and had a huge impact on me. Newell played here — 1939 — and that was significant because when he started his first 'big man' camp, and Kermit Washington and Kiki Vandeweghe were part of that first group at the Loyola gym, and I was the caretaker of the key to get them in there. Same with the Lakers, who would need the alumni gym to practice sometimes, and as the graduate assistant here, I got them in and could stay around and watch Pat Riley run his first practices with Magic Johnson and Norm Nixon. I sat and watched it all.
Raveling was brilliant because he took a business approach to everything. We would go to three-day seminars with IBM or Xerox, he'd bring George Allen in to talk us. He kept developing us as the whole person. He taught me how to be a head coach. George Karl, Lute Olson, Ernie Kent, each of them has great strengths. As an assistant to them, my job was to serve, but I was always picking their brain on the best stuff they did.
With Lav, out of all them, his greatest strength is player confidence. I was able to watch how he got players to play above their ceiling. That was wonderful. The other thing about him was he was always great on TV and he taught me things about interviewing. We'd play at Madison Square Garden and have 25 reporters show up. The media is big so you have to be better in press conferences. That got me ready for the Bobcats and, when things don't go well, they can get salty with the questions thrown at you. You might be frustrated, but your response can't be that way. There's no benefit. Raveling and Lavin and Karl were always great with the media — as witness to them jumping into TV work.
Q: So you can watch what Mike D'Antoni is going through with the Lakers now and relate?
A: I have much greater empathy for him, as I do for one of my guys, Brett Brown (in Philadelphia) with this awful losing streak. What makes it tough for D'Antoni are the expectations and the media here is different. No matter what he does, they need a piece of flesh, and they want his. The problem is he's worn down and he's holding onto something he basically can't win with consistently. No matter what he says. It's a real pickle, and I've been in that pickle.
Q: Someone like Dan Monson at Long Beach State has recently gone to the extreme of playing a lot of big programs on the road to prepare his team for Big West Conference play. What's your philosophy in constructing a schedule as a head coach?
A: There's a mathematical balance to it all, and there's no benefit to playing the toughest schedule in the world and losing eight in a row. You're factoring in the injury side of things as you're thinking about going to Kentucky for a $140,000 payday for your program. If you are that kind of guy who will do the power ranking and pound away, I'm not a proponent of that. You don't want to go the other way either. I'd rather have a softer schedule and build someone inside out as far as confidence goes. When you do get smacked, you hopefully can handle it. Our schedule next year includes USC and Arizona State on the road. It's not impossible but you can see where we could get pounded there a little bit.
Q: You have said that Paul Westhead, who had the Lions in the NCAA Tournament three straight years (from 1988-'90), really put the WCC on the national map, as well as LMU. Do you find any residual effect of those days when you're talking to recruits? Do any of them know — or their parents remember — the days of Bo Kimble and Hank Gathers?
A: I don't think so. There might be a rare kid who knows, but most of them are defined by what they see on ESPN, and ESPN rarely goes back there unless they want to talk about Gathers in some kind of '30 For 30' documentary. The challenge is that success hasn't been sustained. Going to the Elite Eight is tough enough to do even under the best circumstances. The memory, and trying to move them to that point, is pretty difficult.
Q: So if LMU's last trip to the NCAA Tournament was 1990, what's the draw for players to come here if there's been this absence from tournament exposure for such a long while?
A: Physically, this school has doubled in size since I was here. The medium is visual and it's become powerful. It has morphed into something where you bring anybody onto this campus, and it's 'what a spot.' We didn't say that before. It's not just the physical changes, but what a great spot in the city. We're in a great locale, the facilities are really nice, and with the 100 years of tradition of the school you can sell that mission with ease. And where we are with Gonzaga and BYU, they've put a mark on our conference as far as TV and video streaming exposure. There's also the opportunity here play sooner than maybe they would at a UCLA or USC, and we're going to play those people, too. There's plenty to pitch here.

Thai-Style Basil Chicken with Rice Noodles
Did I mention I won boneless chicken a few weeks ago from Sarah of Food, Words & Photos, courtesy of KOL foods?
Not the Far Side kind, Silly-Billy! Three large packages of skinless, boneless chicken!
Despite the heat wave we had that week, a prize package appeared on my doorstep extremely frozen and in perfect condition (protected by a reusable Styrofoam cooler). I picked up the first package labeled "Boneless Breast Fillet" and put it in the freezer. I picked up the second package labeled "Boneless Breast Fillet" and put it in the freezer. I didn't read the third and just tossed it into the fridge meat drawer to defrost.
|NOT Thai Basil Chicken
A couple days later, I made my ever-popular Chicken Marsala for dinner, a little disappointed that the breasts looked as if I did the deboning, but the flavor more than made up for it. TheHubby, on the other hand, ate his serving, complaining between bites that he doesn't like dark meat.
No, all three packages were white meat, I said.
No, this is dark meat, theHubby responded.
Oopsies. I had forgotten until that very moment that the prize package was supposed to be 2 packages of white meat and 1 of dark. Also explains why dinner looked like it did ... dark meat doesn't neatly come off the bone.
Fast forward to the end of last week, when I defrosted gen-u-ine breast fillet. Which exactly what professionally boneless chicken breasts should look like. They were larger and filleted even better than those I purchase locally, with very little fat to remove as well.
Decided to make something a little more different this time ... Thai Basil Chicken. Unlike many recipes that use a few basil leaves for a little flavor, this one puts basil front and center. Thai basil has purple stems, and the leaves have a slightly stronger hint of anise flavor. If you don't have an Oriental grocer nearby, you can use Italian basil instead, just as I did (I don't care much for anise).
Sambal Oelek is ground up chili paste. It packs a lot of flavor in those 2 teaspoonfuls, but also packs a bit of a wallop, so if you are the type who thinks ketchup is spicy, use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon instead. Or sub with a 1/4 teaspoon of pepper (coarsely ground preferred).
The chicken was delicious, tender and juicy. And, as opposed to the marsala, this time theHubby had seconds. He said the chicken was nice (translation: WOW! This chicken is a keeper!).
Thank you, Sarah, and KOL Foods!
A copy of this recipe, along with a slightly different
Thai-Style Basil Chicken with Rice Noodles
Yield: 6 servings
2 Tbl. vegetable oil
1 tsp. chopped garlic (bottled okay)
3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch or so pieces
1 Tbl. soy sauce (regular or low sodium)
1/2 cup sherry (or chicken broth)
2 tsp. powdered ginger
2 tsp. Sambal Oelek (chili paste)
1 loosely packed cup basil leaves (Thai or Italian), coarsely chopped
juice from 1 lime (about 2 Tbl.)
coarsely chopped salted peanuts, for garnish (optional)
Start up a 3 or 4 quart saucepan with water and bring to a boil.
|Almost done = proceed to next step
Meanwhile, heat large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add oil, wait 10 seconds, then add garlic. stir continuously for 30 seconds, then add chicken. Let sear for a minute or two, then stir until chicken is mostly cooked on the outside, with little spots of pink remaining.
Stir in soy sauce, sherry (or broth), ginger and Sambal Oelek. Reduce heat and let simmer a few minutes until chicken is completely cooked through (no pink if pierced).
|Three minutes is all it takes ... do not overcook!
The water should be boiling by now. Add rice noodles and let boil for 3 minutes. Drain well, then add to chicken. Stir sauce up from the bottom to distribute evenly over noodles. Taste and add more soy sauce and/or spices if necessary.
Stir in basil leaves just until they start to wilt, which will happen quickly. Divide chicken and noodles among 6 dinner plates or pasta bowls. Squeeze lime juice over each serving and garnish with salted peanuts, if desired, before serving.

LOS ANGELES – Former Bell City Councilman George Mirabal was sentenced today to one year in county jail, five years probation and 1,000 hours of community service for bilking the working-class municipality's taxpayers through an inflated salary he received for serving on boards that rarely met.
Mirabal, 64, is the first of five former Bell council members convicted in the corruption scandal to be sentenced.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Kathleen Kennedy suspended a four-year state prison term against Mirabal, who will not have to serve any of that time as long as he successfully completes the terms of his probation.
Mirabal, who also must pay $242,293 in restitution, is scheduled to begin serving his jail term July 25. He was credited with about 80 days — for jail time already served and good-behavior credit.
Mirabal and four other city council members pleaded no contest April 9 to two felony counts each of misappropriation of public funds in a plea deal to resolve the remaining corruption charges against them.
Mirabal, former Bell Mayor Oscar Hernandez and former Councilwoman Teresa Jacobo were each convicted in March 2013 of five counts of misappropriation of public funds and acquitted of five others. Former Councilman George Cole was convicted of two counts and acquitted of two others, while former Councilman Victor Bello was convicted of four counts and acquitted of four others.
Jurors deadlocked on a handful of counts against the five, with the prosecution announcing in May 2013 that it intended to retry those charges. The plea deals reached earlier this year resolved the remaining counts, eliminating the need for another trial.
Jurors exonerated former Councilman Luis Artiga of all 12 charges against him.
Before imposing the sentence, the judge said, "I feel terrible for what happened in Bell. It was a failure of our political process in every way."
The judge noted that Mirabal and his former colleagues "did some bad things and broke the law."
"It's not against the law to make a high salary," Kennedy said, while noting that it would have been legal if the resolutions had been clearly drafted and the residents of Bell had been aware.
"It was done in (a) clandestine manner that nobody could figure out…," the judge said.
Kennedy said Mirabal should have looked closer at how the city was being run and done something about it, but said she didn't think the former councilman was without some "redeeming qualities."
The judge focused her strongest criticism on former City Administrator Robert Rizzo and former Assistant City Administrator Angela Spaccia, who were sentenced earlier this year to state prison in connection with the corruption scandal, saying the damage the two did was "absolutely tremendous" and that the council members were "the only ones who could have stopped Mr. Rizzo."
Outside court, Mirabal said he felt the sentence — which was what the defense had requested — was "very fair," but he noted that his political career was not ending the way he had wanted. He told reporters it will "hurt" to go back to county jail, where he and his former council colleagues spent some time behind bars before being released on bail after their arrests in September 2010.
Mirabal told the judge that he "was not vigilant to what was happening in the city," and apologized to the city of Bell and its residents.
"I am here today to face and accept the responsibility for my failures," he said, telling the judge that he has had a 30-year love affair with the city.
Deputy District Attorney Sean Hassett said he appreciated Mirabal's "apology to the city of Bell for what he's done," but asked the judge to impose the maximum four-year state prison term allowed under the plea agreement. The prosecutor told the judge that Bell residents were denied basic services as the defendants "got richer and richer."
In a sentencing memorandum, Hassett wrote that the court would be "hard- pressed to find a more egregious case of public corruption."
The prosecutor told reporters outside court he was "disappointed" with the sentence and was not sure exactly how much of the 365-day jail term Mirabal will actually have to serve.
Bell Mayor Nestor Enrique Valencia — who had called on the judge to impose a "full measure of justice" — said after the hearing that he was also disappointed with the sentence.
"They're going to think it's another kick in the face," he said of the city's electorate. "The maximum should have been served on this, in my opinion."
Hernandez, Jacobo, Bello and Cole — who are also facing a term between probation and four years in prison — are set to be sentenced within the next month.
Mirabal's attorney, Alex Kessel, said he believed the sentence could serve as a potential insight into what kind of sentences the other former council members could face, noting that his client had not wanted to be the first to be sentenced. The other defendants' sentencing dates have all been postponed.
During the trial, prosecutors contended that the five were paid illegal salaries for sitting on four city boards that rarely met, with their salaries reaching $100,000 in a city of 2 1/2 square miles where the median household income was $35,000.
Defense attorneys countered during the trial that their clients were wrongly accused, arguing that they worked diligently for the city and earned their salaries.
The five were charged in September 2010 along with Rizzo and Spaccia in what then-District Attorney Steve Cooley said was "corruption on steroids."
Rizzo pleaded no contest last October to all 69 charges against him and was sentenced April 17 to 12 years in prison and ordered to pay $8.8 million in restitution.
Spaccia was convicted last December of 11 felony counts, including misappropriation of public funds and conflict of interest. Jurors acquitted her of one count of secretion of a public record involving former Bell Police Chief Randy Adams' employment contract, and deadlocked on another count — misappropriation of public funds involving an alleged $75,500 loan of taxpayer money in 2003 — that was eventually dismissed.
She was sentenced in April to 11 years and eight months in state prison and ordered to pay more than $8 million in restitution. Spaccia is appealing her conviction.

* Secret Sister Hideout - Closet Tunnel Between Children's Rooms
Two months ago, Geoff and I decided to cut a secret passageway
for the girls between their two closets.
Yes, we cut a hole in the wall of our house to make a secret tunnel.
Yes, it IS the coolest thing ever (according to our kids and their friends.)
Pardon my crummy photos, I was mostly the helper for this project
and only remembered to take a couple of quick photos as we were working.
We started by cutting out a square of drywall in "C"s bedroom closet wall.
Then, we went around to "E"s closet wall on the opposite side
and cut the same size hole through her drywall.
There was one stud in the middle.
Geoff carefully cut it away and used it to block the hole at the top of the square.
Then, we made a quick run to Lowes and got a couple of nice pieces of unfinished white pine.
We decided to keep it simple and not paint the wood,
you could but we like the natural wood color.
Geoff nailed and screwed the board into the opening and
used his mitre saw to cut natural wood trim to finish the openings on both sides.
The girls love their tunnel.
They crawl through it and trade secrets.
So many giggles.
They like to drag pillows and blankets in there with flashlights
and hide out with the closet doors closed.
Right now they have an elaborate doll house set up in there for their 18" dolls.
It only took a couple of hours
(including the time to run to the store) and the girls love it.
Everyone who comes to our house now has to go visit the (not-so) secret tunnel!

Lupus or Allergies
Hello again,
I havent posted here for a while my last post was http://www.pets.ca/forum/showthread.php?p=921176 Crusty dog nose pics.
I have a new dog she is a GSP 2 ½ish yrs old I raised from a puppy. Papered and registered I bought from Damar, Kansas (Stars Pups Litter 09) and had her Bird dog trained for $2,500. Last year I noticed little scabs on her skin, I thought it was barbed wire scratching her as she ran around hunting. Not the case it has progressed into lesions and mass itching causing more damage to her skin. I took her to 2 vets they said allergies, They put her on ChlorTabs, Benadryl, Fish oil, Antibiotics and Prednisone. The Pred made her fat and lethargic. Not happy with this, anyways her symptoms for the most part almost went away. I attribute the partial healing to the Prednisone. The other meds nothing, fish oil made her coat shinny as it should it helps promote healthy skin. I also changed her diet to expensive grain free dog food. I noticed that the skin irritation is more in the summer months and less through the winter months, the pictures attached were taken December 16, 2011after being on pred for 2 weeks. After the allergy treatment didnt work we gave her a break for 8 weeks, med free to clear her system for blood work. Blood work came back, vet said she isnt allergic to anything they tested for. And now wants to bring her back in for more allergy skin testing, then Biopsy after that. Vets ball park diagnosis is Discoid lupus with out biopsy wont know for sure. By the way Im about $3,000 + into vet bills with $800 for the skin test and biopsy to go. Ok . they say Discoid lupus is not contagious, my last post was for my other dog that has Discoid lupus or collie nose. My GSP always licks the infected nose of my other dog. And now may have the same disease ????. What are the chances that I have Two dogs with the same disease. Is there any treatment to keep her weight down, She is a great hunter and I dont want to run her to death fat on prednisone.
More pics
Im adding more pics here. Notice the nose of the brindle and white dog "Nia" This is the crusty dog nose. I posted a while back. Nose is better but never heals. My GSP Black "Lilly" @ 7 months looks good no infection in this pic. Lilly always licks Nia's nose now Lilly is Infected. Lupus or Allergies
What do you feed them? Some of those sores and bumps on the ears look alot like what my boy had years ago. I was feeding him vet prescribed food. He also had these sores that looked like an extra large chicken pox and they wept from time to time.
Once I learned al little bit more about food ingrediants and change him over to a high meat content food everything literally went away. I fed him Orijen which was 80% meat & 20% fruits and veggies. There were no by products and no grains.
You may have already tried changin the food but its important to go with a high grade quality food?
I think this is why both of them have it ??

In that older thread, you said that the vet said that it is lupus. You did not say how that was diagnosed? Was a biopsy or culture ever run?
I do not understand why when vets prescribe both antibiotics and pred, and the treatment works, they then say it's autoimmune or from the pred. It could very well be infectious, and with infection is often inflammation.
I wonder, when training, if there wasn't perhaps some exposure to something to something, so this may be unrelated to your other dog. Might be related, but might just be coincidental?
I am biased, tend to think infection first...
btw, she's VERY pretty
The old thread dog "Crusty nose" was diagnosed by the vet just looking at it, vet gave me Prednisone and antibiotics. It cleared her up made the dog fat but never really healed the nose.
Lilly the GSP- I have taken to 2 vets 1 did blood work to find nothing!!! @$300 a pop and told me the test may have been void due to the dog no being spade, I was told that the dogs female hormones may have altered the test this is why they found nothing. The vet knew Lilly wasnt spade for christ sakes she did the physical.Clearly its somthing. Same vet want to do more test I cant afford paying for nothing I need results.
Have you been to a dermatologist? Sometimes, even though more expensive intially, they will save in the long run. I guess it all depends on the practitioner.
In the meantime, I would request copies of all blood work and lap tests from your vet(s) for a file to keep at home. Then you can double check things for yourself, and you have the records in case you want to go somewhere else.
If this is infection, it most likely won't show up on a blood test. If there is an autoimmune component, that still doesn't rule out infection. I don't know about the blood and spayed thing, unless they were testing the ANA.
My experience here is that vets are quick to diagnose autoimmune disease when it's obscure infection. Had to go through 5 vets with my boy's nose and problems until I finally found an internal medicine vet that looked at everything, used logic, and came up with infection.
This was my boy's nose at it's worst:
And now, still treating:
We are using doxycycline, cipro, and 2.5 mg of pred every other day. My boy weighs 85 pounds. It turns out that the eye meds that we were using for his pannus (tacrolimus), were making the nose worse and preventing it from getting better.

For Mt. Airy resident Keith DeStefano — leader, composer and bassist for the jazz band Puzzlebox — music came naturally. "I studied jazz with Tyrone Brown, a well-known bassist who played with Max Roach. I learned a lot from Odean Pope, but in terms of composition, I'm totally self-taught. I was just able to do it. Ever since I was a kid, I'd listen to stuff and hear how themes were developed.
"I never even thought about it. My mother was a classical pianist, not professionally but extremely talented. I used to sit on the piano bench while she played; those were my happiest memories. And I raided my father's record collection. He had extremely eclectic tastes that have influenced me to this day."
But when it came time for school, Keith choose to study visual art. "I never took music seriously because it came so easy to me. I wish I had. I went to The University of the Arts, and I got out hating painting. I became a critic. My philosophy is that good artists do more bad art than bad artists. Just crank it out; whatever comes out."
It was his wife who pushed him back to music. "Most women don't want to put up with a musician, but she said she'd leave me if I ever quit music. She heard me playing and said, 'Why aren't you doing this?' She got me going and has been pushing me ever since."
DeStefano (when asked his age, he replied, "Let's just say over 40") founded Puzzlebox in 2005 as a sextet and then expanded the band into an octet in 2008. "I was frustrated with how small the band was. And then some members went on to do their own thing, and only my keyboardist was left. He is Anam-Owili Eger, an amazing piano player that no one knows about. We grew the band because I'm a composer primarily, and that allowed me to explore more textures. I would love to have a 100-piece orchestra, but I can't afford to pay them," he said slyly.
"It was when I played with Odean Pope and his Collective Voices that I really saw the possibility of a sax choir, a large horn section. You could develop a piece and the harmony. I'm a big admirer of Charles Mingus and Duke Ellington, I love the big bands. Mingus did the little big band, the eight-piece band, and that's where I drew a lot of inspiration from," he said.
His role as composer and leader of the band is far from glamorous. "I'm everything. I'm the agent, the writer, the guy that makes sure everyone gets paid. I work at least four hours every day on the band (in addition to his full-time job). A lot of that time is spent trying to book gigs and get into festivals. It's tough. The hardest thing in the world is to get someone to listen to your music.
"But there's also writing and practicing, to keep my chops up. I write everyday. I don't wait around for inspiration. I'll get an idea with a melody that pops in my head and then I'll see where it goes … I overwrite enormously."
DeStefano does all of this work for the band for one simple reason. "It gives voice to my music. I write a lot of music, so I may as well give it some kind of life. Everyone in my band is doing it for the love of it. 99% of the people who play jazz do it because of that love."
Keith's love of jazz started at an early age while taking electric bass lessons from a jazz guitarist in Red Bank. "He turned me on to [John] Coltrane and Charlie Parker, and I was like 'Wow, this stuff is incredible,' and I fell in love with it. I really loved improvisation, which is spontaneous composing. Wayne Shorter said composing is improvisation in slow motion, and there's a lot to be said for that.
"A lot of people have stereotypical ideas about jazz. Some people think of it as cocktail background, and a lot of musicians have to make a living doing that. Some hear it as living, vital music, which is how I think about it.
"In my music I try to find a balance. There are parts that are free jazz but no one would know it because there are destinations written in. It's controlled creativity. I had to find the balance between what was arranged and what wasn't — what was free — to give the musicians as much freedom as I can."
As for getting people to sit down and take the time to listen to his music (as well as jazz in general), DeStefano thinks it's all in perception. "Jazz has become art music; it's the same thing that happened to classical music. There's a lot of misunderstanding, a certain pretentiousness that can be around it. I think there's a lot of prejudice against it, because people don't understand it. They think it's either going to be so esoteric or cacophonous that they can't relate to it, or it's going to be background music.
"But if you do really take time to listen to Billie Holiday, for example, your life will be better. That stuff is profound. The state of jazz is that it's always going to keep going on. Jazz is evolving all the time, but it's an underground music. You have to go out and find it.
"I want people to give my music (and jazz) a chance and listen to it and then decide. I know there's people who aren't really going to like it, but at least listen to it before you decide. You have to keep your mind open so you don't get a hardening of the attitudes. There's nothing wrong with shaking your hips and having a good time, but why can't you do that and also listen to 'Giant Steps' or 'A Love Supreme' (by John Coltrane)? They're masterpieces. Why can't you do both?"

My apartment complex had a thanksgiving party for all of the residents. Naturally, there was a group singing xmas carols and two preachers preaching.
I was walking through the hallway and one of the preachers grabbed me and another neighbor. We were told to identify ourselves and tell us something about ourself.
This is what I said.
Hi, my name is Regina and I am a BLACK ATHEIST CHICK.
Clint said:
I am a Jewish Communist Sodomizer.
The preacher said, well, well, I don't know what to say except, no more introductions.
Everyone that attended the party was in shock.
Views: 243
Someone put some religious literature on my door. I grilled a steak outside and I used the literature for fuel.
Who said recycling is not good?
I look forward to the day when people make no assumptions about believing in a god, any god, or spirits, or divine intervention, or all the poppycock that goes with each one. So many religions have the capacity to make people feel small, insignificant, helpless, in need of some spirit-ghost to take care of them.
Although I would not have responded as a "Communist Sodomizer", simply because I am neither. I would have chosen words that were accurate, true, and as strong as I could muster: "I am a heretic and apostolic atheist who finds religion disgusting."
However, I am not always the most effective one at making a point. You go for it.
Joan, here's the information on Clint.
Clint is Jewish. Clint is a member of the Communist Party. Clint is GAY. So Clint was telling the truth.
After that comment was made, leasing management is discussing whether or not to have clergy at the resident xmas party.
Oh! I am so gad that Clint spoke honestly for himself, with self-respect, dignity and courage. I assumed he was being smart ass. You showed me that, once again, I jump to conclusions. Clint is my hero! Thanks for confronting me with my error!
Always remember I am the smart ass of the group. Leasing management is still reeling from my revelation. So far, the people that used to bother me are not bothering me anymore. I've been telling people about my "religious" affiliation and they have not been listening and they are listening now.
Being a smartass is a prerequisite for being a hero, and you are my hero.

On to Finisterre, end of the earth
Wiki on Finisterre
Notes and 'Postcards' from the Road to St. James - Santiago - beyond and between. Brother and sister Gary and Susan Regester walked the Camino from 1-30 October 2007 - With added posts to follow Hans Schreyer in 2009, 2010, 2011 - click on photos to enlarge.
Posted by Gary Regester at Thursday, October 14, 2010
Born in 1951 and raised in California,
Gary pursued a divinity degree before training in advertising photography
at the Art Center College of Design then in Los Angeles. At the midpoint of his coursework, Gary completed a photo documentary of the company, Chouinard Equipment in Ventura CA which let to photographing the first catalog for Patagonia clothing.
After receiving his Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Photography from the Art Center in 1975, he assisted fashion and celebrity photographer, Moshe Brakha, who recommended Gary as to be staff photographer for United Artist Records [now, EMI Records] in Hollywood. After two years with UA/EMI, Gary decided to work freelance and moved with his wife Joanie, to the tiny town of Silver Plume located at an elevation of 2760 meters (9,201 ft.) in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, where they now live with their five children.
After his move to Colorado, Gary photographed his music clientele entirely out of his travel cases. He and this portable studio have photographed Kenny Rogers in the dressing rooms of Las Vegas, toured with the Doobie Brothers, spent a month in Russia with the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, chased UFOs on a US Coast Guard cutter with the Jefferson Starship and continually solved the usual studio problems in "un-studio-like" rooms, rooftops, and back streets.
In 1979, unable to find an acceptable light diffusion product to bring a studio quality lighting to photography on the road, Gary decided to create his own solution based on the design of a mountain tent. After numerous "light tent" prototypes, Gary together with Tom Frost, a world class mountain climber and outdoor equipment designer (Chouinard Equipment), formed the company, CHIMERA, which successfully introduced portable light diffusion tents to advertising, portrait photographers and cinematographers throughout the world.
In 1986, Gary formed his own company, Plume Ltd., to market a more
sophisticated light diffusion "tent" named WAFER which featured
his novel "negative" solution to the softbox "hot spot" and
many improvements suggested to him by photographers using his earlier
product. Numerous original designs have followed including projects for Manfrotto,
Italy; Bowens, UK; Lowel-Lights, USA; FlashStyx, USA; Remington Products,
USA; Lightware USA, INKA, NL; SphereOne, USA; COMET and TAKE Inc, Japan and NaiheFuture, Macao.
Gary continues to photograph and to design equipment. He travels extensively to lecture and demonstrate his ideas about lighting and the tools required to make photographs. Locally, he has been a member of his Town Board for 31 years, serving two years as the Mayor of Silver Plume and is a Planning Commissioner for Clear Creek County Colorado. His personal studies have moved into the roots of modern religious forms (fraterholme.com).

Having previously told you about some of my favorite BlackBerry smartphone training apps for runners, I also wanted to note that I like to exercise my mind as well as body, and have been known to take advantage of yoga apps from the BlackBerry World storefront. But to reach a state of zen or nirvana, I recently learned of a new technique called brainwave entrainment.
Now, entrainment is more than just entertainment spelled incorrectly; it is a principle of physics. It is defined as the synchronization of two or more rhythmic cycles. Brainwave entrainment is the brain's electrical response to rhythmic sensory stimulation, like a binaural beat.
When tones of slightly different frequencies are heard separately in the left and right ears, the listener recognizes only a single tone, or binaural beat. If the rhythmic stimulation becomes consistent enough, it can start to resemble the natural rhythm of brainwaves. It is believed that by manipulating brainwaves, different mental states, like sleep, can be reproduced. The concept has also been applied to mental states of concentration, creativity and meditation.
So, let's get to the fun stuff. Grab your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet or BlackBerry Z10 and try a brainwave entrainment app such as Beats Brainwave Entrainment by Jamie Beach or Beats Brainwave for BlackBerry 10. Beats Brainwave Entrainment can be used for focusing attention, practicing meditation and assisting with relaxation or sleep.
Let us know if you reach your favorite state of mind in the comments below.

Options Traders Bet Emerging Markets Fund Is Headed Higher
Some options traders are betting market strength knows no borders, with investors calling for a continued rise in a popular fund tracking emerging markets.
Top trades on the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund (EEM) Thursday were counting on shares of the exchange-traded fund to continue showing strength, with a gain of as much as 2.9% by mid-April.
Shares of the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund, which tracks the benchmark index for emerging-market stock performance, added 12 cents, or 0.3%, to $43.75 Thursday. That made for a third straight gain, the longest streak of rises since a five-session streak ended Jan. 2.

This is going to be hard news for the pumpkin pie purists to swallow, but it's true: Some people just don't like pumpkin pie.
For some it's an issue of slimy texture; others are turned off by the thought of having to make pie crusts from scratch; and finally there are those people who simply think the whole tradition is entirely pedestrian.
If you love pumpkin but are looking for an alternative to pie this year, these four mouthwatering ideas definitely have your name all over them.
A layered Pumpkin Trifle -- served in a glass bowl -- has all the flavors of pumpkin pie and it looks beautiful, too. This popular recipe from Taste of Home substitutes gingerbread cake for crust and layers it with butterscotch pudding and whipped topping -- yum!
We'd be remiss in our duties if we didn't include at least one cupcake recipe. Pumpkin Cream Cupcakes combine spice cake and canned pumpkin and have a cream cheese center. And we just happen to have the recipe.
Luscious Pumpkin Cheesecake takes the concept of pumpkin pie and cranks up the caloric intake to 11. But that isn't any reason to pass up a slice, is it?
Finally, for anyone who's a sucker for bread pudding (me! me!) you've got to admit that Pumpkin Bread Pudding is a pretty brilliant twist on the traditional dessert. It's pumpkin puree, spices, vanilla -- what's not to like?
Are you a pumpkin pie purist?

Means For Carrying The Proposed Plan Into Execution,
Each canton shall elect in its primary assemblies, three persons, as commissionersfor that canton, who shall take cognizance, and keep a register of all mattershappening in that canton, conformable to the charter that shall be establishedby law for carrying this plan into execution.
II. The law shall fix the manner in which the property of deceased personsshall be ascertained.
III. When the amount of the property of any deceased persons shall be ascertained,the principal heir to that property, or the eldest of the co-heirs, if oflawful age, or if under age, the person authorized by the ill ofthe deceased to represent him or them, shall give bond to the commissionersof the canton to pay the said tenth part thereof in four equal quarterlypayments, within the space of one year or sooner, at the choice of the payers.One-half of the whole property shall remain as a security until the bondbe paid off.
IV. The bond shall be registered in the office of the commissioners of thecanton, and the original bonds shall be deposited in the national bank atParis. The bank shall publish every quarter of a year the amount of thebonds in its possession, and also the bonds that shall have been paid off,or what parts thereof, since the last quarterly publication.
The national bank shall issue bank notes upon the security of the bondsin its possession. The notes so issued, shall be applied to pay the pensionsof aged persons, and the compensations to persons arriving at twenty-oneyears of age. It is both reasonable and generous to suppose, that personsnot under immediate necessity, will suspend their right of drawing on thefund, until it acquire, as it will do, a greater degreeof ability. In this case, it is proposed, that an honorary register be kept,in each canton, of the names of the persons thus suspending that right,at least during the present war.
VI. As the inheritors of property must always take up their bonds in fourquarterly payments, or sooner if they choose, there will always be numeraire arriving at the bank after the expiration of the first quarter, to exchangefor the bank notes that shall be brought in.
VII. The bank notes being thus put in circulation, upon the best of allpossible security, that of actual property, to more than four times thea mount of the bonds upon which the notes are issued, and with numeraire continually arriving at the bank to exchange or pay them off wheneverthey shall be presented for that purpose, they will acquire a permanentvalue in all parts of the Republic. They can therefore be received in paymentof taxes, or emprunts equal to numeraire, because theGovernment can always receive numerairefor them at the bank.
VIII. It will be necessary that the payments of the ten per cent be madein numeraire for the first year from the establishmentof the plan. But after the expiration of the first year, the inheritorsof property may pay ten per cent either in bank notes issued upon the fund,or in numeraire.
If the payments be in numeraire , it will lie asa deposit at the bank, be exchanged for a quantity of notes equalto that amount; and if in notes issued upon the fund, it will cause a demandupon the fund equal thereto; and thus the operation of the plan will createmeans to carry itself into execution.

The new John Deere 2200 Field Cultivator with AccuDepth technology helps producers where it really counts — in the pocketbook. This new cultivator has the most accurate depth control (increments of less than a quarter-inch) of any field cultivator ever designed by John Deere.
AccuDepth allows the operator to raise, lower, set depth, and level the frame from within the cab. The accurate depth control system reduces soil moisture loss, mixes chemical, and tills the soil at very precise depths. The system display in the cab gives readings on depth and frame levelness and is fully compatible with GreenStar precision farming systems as well.
Additional components of AccuDepth include a cylinder with proportional valve and position sensor to adjust each section's frame depth independently from the rest of the unit. This leads to a more level operation with extremely accurate depth control.
In addition to precision and accuracy, the 2200 Field Cultivator is built to withstand the toughest field conditions. New TruPosition standards, backed by a three-year warranty, feature up to 150 pounds (standard) and 200 pounds (optional) trip force.
The tube-through-tube frame of the cultivator insures additional strength and durability and is also backed by the three-year warranty. The heavy-duty four by four-inch steel cross members provide a stable side-to-side platform for the cultivator.
John Deere has also introduced the 2100 Minimum-Till Ripper, the newest compaction-fighting tool for no-till and minimum-till producers. The ripper combats soil compaction and helps maintain crop residue levels. It fractures the sub-soil compaction layer, while leaving minimum surface and residue disturbance.
The John Deere 2100 Minimum-Till Ripper is available in working widths from 12 feet six inches to 21 feet and it can reach a maximum working depth of 16 inches, with coulters.
Various options and configurations of the John Deere 2100 Minimum-Till Ripper allows farmers to configure the implement to best fit their tillage practices.
To learn more about these John Deere tools visit your local dealer, or www.JohnDeereAg.com.

Life in Limbo
I got off from overnight call at 9. I had gotten a decent amount of sleep, so I started my commute home by biking to a train station, a little farther away from where I usually catch the train home. It was a brisk 50 minute ride through the cold, bright morning, all on bike lanes.
Read two interesting articles on the train on two different kinds of leukemia. Got home and fixed a late breakfast. Read a bit of Last Night in Twisted River, the new John Irving book. I got done with A Prayer for Owen Meany last week and that was a great book. Twisted River is okay and it's getting better as I'm halfway through. I was about to take a nap when the Girl got home from her run. She has to change quickly into her work clothes, which is always fun to watch. We talked a bit before I dozed off. Post-call naps are the best.
When I got up, I did some sit-ups while watching Bones. Threw some running clothes on and ran to Natali's after-school care. She was happy to see me; there are times when she is a little embarrassed of me, but this wasn't one of them. Some of her friends came over to see if she could play on this or that day. I referred them back to Natali, who likes to hang with friends no more than every other day.
I ran while she biked. She has a bike that she loves; I just put some of those fancy induction bike lights on it. She likes to sing while riding one-handed. It's hard to keep up with her. We swung by the grocery store on the way back to buy stuff for dinner. She wanted home-made burgers, insisting on fresh ground beed, not the pre-formed patties. She had also seen a set of new sheets (duvet and pillow covers) that she wanted. I reminded her that she had spent her last money on a stupid Nerf gun and encouraged her to save up for the sheets. She mock-pouted.
At home, I agreed to eat in front of the TV. After all, Friends and Two Guys and a Girl were on. Then the Girl came home from music class with the Lorax. He had been singing loudly the whole way home, on the back of the Girl's bike, and now went straight for a burger (which he pronounces buh-guh in Danish). The Girl was off to look at retinas for a few hours and I cleaned up after dinner.
Then I played with the Lorax. Our typical game included me hiding and scaring him. Then I tickle him until he screams "sloot", meaning "the end". Then I freeze and he climbs up on my back. He says "start" and I start to buck until he falls off. Then I run off to hide again or, alternatively, he runs off to hide. We always end up giggling hard. Sometimes, he gets overwhelmed by the game and goes "hej far!" ("Hi dad"), touching my face, to remind himself that I'm dad and not some crazy wolf about to eat him.
Then I put him to bed. He can go from wild savage to fast asleep in 5 minutes. I offer him a rub and a song and he climbs into bed and lies on his stomach. I always sing "Superman Song" by Crash Test Dummies. I have sung that song to all three kids; perhaps I've sung it 500 times. If he's not asleep by the end of it, which he usually is, I sing "I've just seen a face" by the beatles, followed by "Long may you run" by Neil Young.
I read to Natali; a novel that takes place in Norway. We talked for five minutes before I turn off the lights and kiss her cheek. She always insists on me tucking her in under both duvets.
Then the Girl came home. Her study is humming along right now, and there has been no major crisis this week. We had an hour to ourselves before calling it a night.
This morning, I ran two hours on the trails that start behind our house. Up and down steep hills, trying to beat up my quads as much as possible. Beautiful running on beautiful trails.
24 perfect hours. I can't imagine life getting much better, and I can think of millions of ways life could get worse. I am convinced we'll look back at this time in our lives and think of how happy we were. I should be happy; And yet, I feel like I'm living in limbo.
There is a simple test to see if I am enjoying life. If I want time to go slower, I am enjoying myself. Up until high school, I wanted time to slow to a standstill. I loved my life and wanted it to continue forever. Throughout my marriage with my ex, I wanted life to go fast; I wanted to get done with college, medical school, residency etc. But the last year of residency, especially after I met the Girl, I wanted to slow things down. This lasted until we moved to Denmark, after which I have wanted time to fly by.
It's the limbo I can't take. Or limbos; namely two, and a bunch of smaller ones.
The first is Natali and where she will be next year. My ex wife hasn't decided what she wants to do and, as some readers may know, she has the power to decide where Natali will live next year. I think about this 500 times a day, as I am biking or running or clearing the table after dinner. We can't plan anything past next summer, or "N-day" as I call it.
My ex-wife, bless her heart, ignores my emails. We have had some minor arguments lately. Really minor stuff, but her lack of communication makes the situation unnerving.
I don't know what I would do if she demands that Natali come back to Wisconsin. My first move could be to tell her (in writing, so I could show InterPol that I wasn't trying to kidnap Natali), "okay, she is all yours; come and get her". Now, my ex has watched me bring and pick up Natali 6 or 7 times over the last two years, while she has driven a few hours, tops, to Madison to meet us. She has paid half of one of the plane tickets, while bithing endlessly about it. Just that fact, that she would have to come here to pick up Natali, may deter her from wanting her.
Of course, such a move on my part would mean that I would be even farter away from Andreas, and being away from him is another one of my worries.
He's a pit of guilt and regret, moreso than a limbo, though. The other big limbo is what we'll do when the Girl is done with her PhD. This depends largely on what specialty she goes into. Right now, she is torn between ophthalmology and sports medicine. People may ask, appropriately, how the Girl could do a PhD in ophthalmology and then go into sports medicine. I personally think the Girl would be happy doing either specialty, and if she would go into sports med, she would sell her PhD as more of a public health/epidemiology study.
She would do well in either career. Ophthalmology seems more obvious, but her interests right now lie more in sports medicine. As much ought to be claer to anyone reading her blog (ie. the five people reading this). Her choice is exciting, but it also represents a state of limbo for me. Ophthalmology would probably take us back to Wisconsin and Andreas, whereas sports medicine would most likely take us to the Pacific Northwest. So it's not just a career choice for her; it's me being close to Andreas and, god forbid, Natali, if she ends up with my ex. And it has implications for my career, as hematology is a specialty of large academic centers. If the Girl does sports medicine, I may end up working in the ER, for a while or permanently.
I think the Dalai Lama has said something like "don't worry about things you can fix; fix them. Don't worry about things you can't fix, because you can't fix them, anyway". It seems like such simple advice to give, but it's hard to follow.

I wonder at times what you feel that SLG has bigger blog population and more life-influencing choices. May be it's because I grew up in a male shovinistic culture, and deep inside, despite being highly opinionated, do follow what a man does (career-wise).
It's hard living by that quote. But we can try and get close:) At times I get so tired, I can't think even about tomorrow, yet along about years ahead.

I thought that was a great blog post.
A bit in response to Olga: just have to say that I am quite open-minded about where we move and what kind of job I get. There are many cool options. But Fast Bastard, it is a complicated situation with the kids (luckily, you could pretty much work anywhere). You know I'll go where you want to go.

Danny - well, you know I'm not the most up to date when it comes to emoticons and punctuations marks as emotional expression - but, um, SR and I just got a little good laugh out of your comment, wondering if it was sexual. Ok - I'm guessing it wasn't.

SR, I identified so strongly with this post (and not just because a mention Owen Meany, possibly my favorite protagonist in modern literature, always gets my immediate attention).
I remember last year, our peaceful year, my year of exploration... I would sometimes tell myself - remember this, enjoy this very moment (even if I was waiting for a bus in the rain with a crying cocotte) because one day soon you will look back on it with yearning. And I already do... it is hard to enjoy the moment when important aspects of one's life are in limbo (and I can relate to that feeling of limbo right now as well) but we have to try. We have to embrace the moment. Worry about the future but embrace the now - your post sounds like you are doing exactly that. Children are such markers of time aren't they? BK (before kid) I would sometimes struggle to remember if we had done something a week ago, a month ago, 6 months ago... now I feel that every moment is so marked and poignant and etched in time.
Yes, your post really spoke to me.

Just looked up the World 100K Championship - did everyone in the US have something go wrong??? Pat Russell (of WI, MN and now MI) had planned on 6:50 or so before the baby was born 20 weeks early and his life was put on hold. I know two others who had tragedies as well. The Danes DID do well, however!
Irving wrote two good books, Owen Meany and (especially) Ciderhouse Rules and one okay one (Garp) - if you want total crap, I can send you my collection of his early stuff (158 Pound Marriage is particularly bad) - I must've been dating someone who liked his books at the time.

steveq - totally agree about 158 pound marriage which i just read for the first time last year in italy. however "a widow for one year" is actually my favorite book by him and well worth mentioning in the list of good books he wrote.
conversely, i would add "until i find you" to list of the bad

Danni, (((( )))) back at you.
Olga, it's not as simple as one of us just following the other's career. The Girl has to specialize in something or she can't work anywhere, so we'll follow her path for a while.
Piccola, it's well-described that we are on the same blogging wavelength. And apperently we, along with Steve, share a taste in books. I will have to read "A widow for one year", although, unfortunately, "158-pound marriage is next on my list" (it's the only one I have).
Thanks for the comments, all.

What a lovely, thoughtful post.
It seems to me that if there is a career option that SLG could choose that will place you in physical proximity to your older son, and will result in your being able to see all 3 of your kids, that that is clearly the choice. Boys need their dads, especially in modern U.S. culture. The next few years, and your choices, will shape his future as a man, husband, father. I know there are no easy answers- but my heart can't help but ache for your son, who is an ocean away from his daddy, and daily has to deal with the fact that his sister is with his 'new' family.

Federer moves into second round at French Open
Paris, France – Former champion Roger Federer handled Spanish qualifier Pablo Carreno-Busta as the French Open swung into action Sunday in Paris.
Federer cruised past Carreno-Busta by a 6-2, 6-2, 6-3 margin in 80 minutes on the famed red clay at Stade Roland Garros.
The Swiss superstar fired 10 aces past Carreno-Busta, who was making his Grand Slam debut after winning seven consecutive Futures events.
Federer, who has yet to win a title of any kind in 2013, captured the 2009 French Open crown -- the only one Rafael Nadal hasn't won in the last eight years -- to complete a career Grand Slam.
The 31-year-old Federer, who owns 17 Grand Slam titles, will take on either Somdev Devvarman or Daniel Munoz-De La Nava in the second round.
Canadian Milos Raonic, the No. 14 seed, fired 16 aces past Belgian Xavier Malisse en route to a 6-2, 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 victory.
Other wins from seeded players came from Frenchman Gilles Simon and South African Kevin Anderson. The No. 15 seed Simon rallied past former world No. 1 Lleyton Hewitt by a 3-6, 1-6, 6-4, 6-1, 7-5 margin and the 23rd-seeded Anderson handled Illya Marchenko 6-3, 7-5, 6-4.
Meanwhile, Joao Sousa defeated Go Soeda 6-1, 6-3, 6-2, Roberto Bautista Agut took down Gilles Muller 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 and Blaz Kavcic beat James Duckworth 6-2, 6-2, 6-2.
Nadal beat Novak Djokovic in last year's final to claim a third straight and Open Era-record seventh overall men's French Open title.
