A SHERIFF has launched a blistering attack on city social workers after they recommended he let off an armed teenage thug who threatened to kill a couple in their own home.
William Hamilton threatened to kill Charles Murphy and went on to cut his face with a knife during a raid on his home in Greenbank Lane, Morningside. He also threatened his wife.
The 16-year-old – just 15 at the time – had been drunk and armed with a knife during the terrifying incident. Despite this, social workers appealed for the sentence to be deferred for good behaviour.
But veteran Sheriff James Scott told Edinburgh Sheriff Court yesterday "I just wonder what planet some of these people live on – not the same as mine", when Hamilton appeared yesterday.
Hamilton, of Firrhill Park, Oxgangs, had pleaded guilty at a previous hearing to assaulting Charles Murphy in his home on December 9 last year and sentence had been deferred for background reports.
Defence solicitor Charles Morrison told Sheriff Scott that the social work report was "very full and positive" and it recommended that sentence be deferred, but even he admitted: "I think the offence is too serious for that."
After the case, Scottish Conservative chief whip John Lamont said Sheriff Scott was right to have ignored the plea for excessive leniency by social workers.
He said: "It seems there are always reams of excuses for thugs who commit crimes like this. Thankfully in this instance, the sheriff didn't fall for them.
"This was a brutal attack which will have not only injured the homeowner, but no doubt scarred his family for life.
"It makes you wonder what level of offending it would take for this social worker to recommend a custodial sentence."
Fiscal depute Karon Rollo, prosecuting, told the court how a group of teenagers had dared each other to commit a crime and Hamilton said he would carry out a housebreaking.
Mr Murphy and his wife and teenage daughter were preparing for bed when Mr Murphy went to lock the front door, not knowing that Hamilton was in the house. He returned to the bedroom to be confronted by a hooded figure brandishing a knife.
Ms Rollo said the teenager was drunk and threatened to kill Mr Murphy and his wife.
Mr Murphy grabbed the youth's hand and during a struggle the knife cut his face. The daughter came into the room as her father got Hamilton to the floor and the police were called.
Mr Morrison, defending Hamilton, told Sheriff Scott that his client had been heavily intoxicated, had no recollection of what he had done and was disgusted by his behaviour.
The solicitor added that Hamilton was no longer associating with the group that had dared each other to commit a crime and had expressed remorse.
It was a year since the offence, said the lawyer, and Hamilton had been on bail since then, subject to a curfew between 7pm and 7am. This had led to a closer relationship between Hamilton and his father, who was very supportive of his son.
Sheriff Scott told Hamilton: "This sort of situation often leads to very serious, if not fatal, injuries to occupiers. The court owes a duty to protect people from this sort of behaviour."
He placed Hamilton on an 18-month community payback order under supervision and ordered him to perform 225 hours of unpaid work.

- Body Image
- Media
- Eating Disorders and Disordered Eating

Jennifer Hudson Gushes About Baby, David Otungaby Free Britney at . Comments
Motherhood suits Jennifer Hudson, the American Idol star and Oscar-winner says.
"I love being nurturing and caring because I love to see other people happy," says the Chicago native. "Who better to devote my time to than my own child?"
Jennifer gave birth to her first child, David – named after her fiancé, David Otunga – on August 10. From lullabies to bottle-feedings, she's been doing it all.
On keeping her pregnancy private: "David and I were the only people who knew for a long time. I would forget I was pregnant. I didn't have any morning sickness, no cravings. I didn't show until I was seven months so that made it easy."
On recovering from her c-section: "Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterward but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others."
"By that night after I had the baby, I'm like, 'Look, I can't sit in this bed anymore."
Jennifer Hudson and fiance David Otunga.
On the personality of the younger David Otunga: "He has a lot of personality, like David. He's a good sleeper. His favorite time to smile now is diaper changes. Or when he spits up on you – he just cracks up like it's the funniest thing."
"With a pacifier, it's like he knows, 'Ain't nothing come out of here. No, I don't want that. Where's the real deal?' His best friend is that bottle."
On her little guy's future career: "His father is an education fanatic so we definitely want him to go to school, get an education. My mom always said, 'Whatever you want to do, I'll support you as long as you're happy.' So I will do the same."

Ash post vacant
Herald Staff Writer
Published 7:00 pm, Friday, August 14, 2009
By RICHARD PORTER
Herald Staff Writer
The Plainview school board will discuss hiring a principal for Ash Sixth Grade at a special called meeting Thursday.
The bulk of the meeting, set for 6 p.m. at the Education Complex at 24th and Yonkers, will be a budget work session, although there will be a closed session to discuss the principal hiring and two business items.
The new Ash principal will replace Dr. Brent Richburg, who was selected to replace Dr. Gene Whitfill as the district's director of technology. Whitfill resignd to join the staff in the Wayland education department.
The budget workshop is part of the ongoing process the district goes through each year to establish a budget for the coming school year.
At its last meeting, the board set the proposed tax rate at $1.04, the same as the current rate.
At that meeting, PISD Director of Finance Rusty Ingram said the projected budget of $39,143,968 would result in a deficit for the district of approximately $2,427,655. However, he emphasized that all of the numbers at this point are estimates.
Ingram told the board the district faces a considerable challenge in trying to come up with a balanced budget.
He pointed out that across-the-board 10 percent cuts for the 2008-09 school year resulted in just more than $1 million in savings.
Ingram explained that about 80 percent of the district's budget is made up of salaries which can't be impacted except through cutting positions. The administration made it clear that was not an option.
Given those preliminary numbers, board president Daniel Rascon asked Ingram to bring the board two scenarios.
One should be based on making the cuts that would be necessary to balance the budget. The other would combine significant cuts with supplemental money from the general fund balance, which is $18,196,841. The district holds $10 million of that amount in reserve for emergency operational expenses. That amount represents approximately three months of operations expenses.
In addition to the closed session and budget workshop, two business items are on the agenda. The first is consideration of approval of contractual changes, and the second is consideration of approval of custodial supplies.

Business Card
Wellingtonian Sam Wadham from Good Honest Copy provides writing solutions for businesses. He comes from a background in law, policy, and education, but has written mostly for the IT industry to date.
As part of his lead generating strategy, he uses social networks like Facebook and LinkedIn to help his audience connect with him on a personal level. This helps build trust with his audience as well as showcasing his expertise.
Check out his video on the Good Honest Copy Facebook Page.
For his 'shop front', Sam has also created a self-hosted website 'Good Honest Copy' where he showcases case studies and testimonials.
I recently created a business card for Sam to share with friends, colleagues and anyone he meets at network events. First impressions count, so we included a profile photo to get a sense of Sam's personality and chose colours and typefaces that build trust.
Before sending the digital artwork off to the print house, I suggested Sam match his website and Facebook page to reflect his business card. This makes for a strong brand image.
Need help with your next copyrighting project? Contact Sam on facebook.
"Initially, I came up with my own business card design using a free online application
which I thought really fit the bill. When I showed it to Heather, she designed me a card from scratch
which reflected my online brand far better. The final product is far superior to what I came up with
originally with the free application, and is a perfect example of why it's better
to go straight to design experts like Heather at the beginning of a project."

THE FIRST CRUSH IS THE DEEPEST – Book 1 of of the Girls Just Want to Have Fun Miniseries.
You never forget your first…
Sam Richards was Amber DuBois's first crush, first kiss and first love. Until he broke her heart and left town.
Now older and wiser, world-famous concert pianist Amber is at a crossroads in her life.
But the sweetheart who spurned her is back—hotter, richer and in need of a favor!
Glamour, romance and old heartaches resurface, but will her first crush stand the test of time?
Amber DuBois closed her eyes and tried to stay calm. 'Yes, Heath,' she replied. 'Of course I am taking care of myself. No, I am not staying out too long this evening. That's right, a couple of hours at most.'
The limo slowed and she squinted out at the impressive stone pillars of the swish London private members club. 'Ah. I think we have arrived. Time for you to get back to your office. Don't you have a company to sort out? Bye, Heath. Love you. Bye.'
She sighed out loud then quickly stowed her phone in a tiny designer shoulder bag. Heath meant well but in his eyes she was still the teenage unwanted stepsister who he had been told to look after and had never quite learnt to let go. But he cared and she knew that she could rely on him for anything. And that meant a lot when you were at a low point in your life.
Like now.
Amber looked up through the drizzle and was just about to tell the limo driver that she had changed her mind when a plump blonde in a purple bandage dress two sizes too small for her burst out of the club and almost dragged Amber out of the rain and into the foyer.
She looked a little like the mousey-haired girl who had lorded over everyone from the posh girls' table at high school.
Right now Amber watched Miss Snooty 'my dad's a banker' rear back in horror when she realised that the star of the ten-year school reunion alumni had a plaster cast over her right wrist, but recovered enough to bend forward and air kiss her on both cheeks with a loud mmwwahh.
'Amber. Darling. How lovely to see you again. We are so pleased that you could make our little get-together—especially when you lead such an exciting life these days. Do come inside. We want to know everything!'
Amber was practically propelled across the lovely marble floor, which was tricky to do in platform designer slingbacks. She had barely caught her breath when a hand at her back pushed her forwards into a huge room. The walls were covered with cream brocade, broken up by floor to ceiling mirrors, and huge gilded chandeliers hung from the ceiling.
It was a ballroom designed to cope with hundreds of people.
Only at that moment several clusters of extremely bored-looking women in their late twenties were standing with their hands clasped around buffet plates and wine glasses.
Every single one of them stopped talking and turned around.
And stared at her. In total silence.
Amber had faced concert audiences of all shapes and sizes—but the frosty atmosphere in this cold elegant room was frigid enough to send a shiver down her spine.
'Look everyone. Amber DuBois made it in the end. Isn't that marvellous! Now carry on enjoying yourself. Fabulous!'
Two minutes later Amber was standing at the buffet and drinks table with a glass of fizzy water in her hand. She smiled down at her guide, who had started to chew the corner of her lower lip. 'Is everything all right?' Amber asked.
The other woman gulped and whimpered slightly. 'Yes—yes, of course. Everything is just divine. I just need to check something—but feel free to mingle, darling…mingle.'
And then she practically jogged over to a girl who might have been one of the prefects, grabbed her arm and in no uncertain terms jabbed her head towards Amber and glared towards the other side of the room.
Amber peered over the elaborate hairstyles of a cluster of chattering women who were giving her sideways glances as though scared to come and talk to her.
This was so ridiculous. So what if she had made a name for herself as a concert pianist over the years? She was still the quiet, lanky, awkward girl they used to pick on.
And then she saw it. A stunning glossy black grand piano had been brought out in front of the tall picture windows. Just waiting for someone to play it.
So that was the reason her old high school had gone to such lengths to track her down with an email invitation to the ten-year school reunion.
Amber sighed out loud and her shoulders slumped down.
It seemed that some things never changed.

In this video posted in 2007, Beto finds himself in Dayton, Ohio. Not your typical Zumba Fitness town, but then again, nothing is typical with Zumba Fitness.
From housewives, to professionals to mail couriers, Zumba has touched the lives of these ordinary folk. Beto fans speak of the success that they have experienced by doing Zumba. The locals refer to it as the "Ohio Phenomenon."
"When I grew up, we didn't move like this."
I agree. Latin and world beats is not something that everyone gets the opportunity to experience, but Zumba has found a way to open doors for people from all walks of life. One thing's for sure, they rocked the house in Dayton and had a one heck of a fitness party. That's how they roll in Dayton. Wepa!

I bought my GIT from them and it's good juice. Spray it on and see if it's really NS
Hello all! I just received my 4 oz NS from Scentiments and the bottle is plain (No gold lettering or the Millesime print on the bottom). It only has Neroli Sauvage etched in the glass...spray and cap look good, but the insert is written in German??? could it be a german market bottle? I haven't sprayed it, but am considering returning it as I've bought all my other creeds at Neiman's. My 2.5 NS from Neimans has the gold lettering and the millisime print at the bottom.
Thanks for your input....probably should have just paid retail as I alway's have in the past....
I bought my GIT from them and it's good juice. Spray it on and see if it's really NS
Might be a tester. Unless you are retentive concerning packaging...keep it..
Go to Neiman's (if you can) and ask them to do a comparison. I'm sure they will help you out.
Don't Smell the Flowers,

Hmmm weird... is there any chance you can post a picture.
Sounds like an authentic tester you have. I'd be worried if the labeling looked close to what you've seen at NM, but not exacty - signs of a counterfeit job. I got screwed recently by unknowingly buying a fake bottle of Original Vetiver, which had a bottle that was ALMOST identical to the real thing. The fact that your bottle looks nothing like what you've seen in stores, and has just plain lettering on the bottle, tells me that you probably have a legitamite tester on your hands, which is great. Testers are often not pretty to look at, but contain the right juice. Like the other guy said, if it smells like Neroli Sauvage, you're good to go!

thanks everyone!!! I do in fact have a NM 2.5 of NS and did try the scentiments purchase. Right on....maybe a bit more floral than the citrus in my NM. It's legit and I researched the bottle as a German Tester....I have a friend working in Germany for the next year than confirmed the tester labeling there. Strange as here in the states at NM's, testers come in all sorts of varieties. Oh well, it puts me in that NS cloud and that's all that matters.....
Enjoy the weekend and thanks for your help,
By the way, how much did you pay at Scentiments? NS is one of my favorite Creeds and one of my fave citrus fragrances, but I just have a 1 oz. bottle, and I'd like to get the 4 oz.
Hi Shamu1.....It was $129 for a 4oz, which is a pretty good deal considering I usually pay retail.

Happiness on House?!? Hugh Laurie Previews Season Seven, HuddyMatt Richenthal at . Comments
We've seen the season seven photo, but we're still hesitant to believe it:
House and Cuddy will be a real couple this fall on House.
Show producers have made this clear, and now star Hugh Laurie himself is speaking out on the relationship. In an interview with EW.com, the actor told fans to "buckle up" for the ride ahead, saying:
"Even the appearance of happiness [in House] has taken some getting used to. I had a week of happiness training before the season started up, and I'm whistling more than usual."
Lisa Edelstein chimed in with this analysis of her character:
"I was terrified of saying 'I love you.' But I think that in the final scene of season 6, Cuddy makes it clear that she's ready to go for it."
But will fans be ready? What do you think: Does this coupling mark a fresh start for the show? Or the beginning of the end?

Last Tuesday the second planet from the sun passed in front of the sun's disk for the second and last time this young century. Back in 2004, I saw the first event briefly while parked outside a gas station trying to get out from under the clouds that had blocked us at our chosen observing site in Florida.
This time, I was pretty sure I could do a better job: a planned trip to relatively cloudless California coincided nicely with the timing of the event, and I had even planned enough time to land, enjoy the customary In-N-Out lunch at the airport, then make the long drive up to our home base (the in-law's home in Atascadero) with an hour or so to spare before the event began.
Of course, things did not work out as planned. Although I was able to find the binocular filters I'd made years ago out of surplus Baader film, my full-aperture white-light filter made at the same time went missing before the trip. So I needed a last-minute replacement for that.
Here are the binocular filters; although they were made for different binoculars, the loving attention to detail and high-cost materials (cardboard tubes ain't cheap!) meant I had to recycle them:
For the scope, though, I was in a bit of a fix. Woodland Hills Camera was sold out of "real" filters when I stopped in on the day of the event (gee, supply got outpaced by demand). They did have some black polymer filter material made by Thousand Oaks Optical, which, while not the beautiful white-light image I was used to from the Baader film, was purported to provide a yellow image similar to what the sun "looks like" (that is, what it looks like when you're not blinded by its brilliance). So I got a sheet of that and went to work.
The staff weren't particularly helpful in terms of advice and coaching, but they did have the raw materials I needed, and were gracious enough to cede me a corner of their shipping department to assemble the setup: the polymer film for the filter, and a screw-on 77mm camera filter made to fit my little telescope (the TV-60 accepts 77mm filters). With those, and the cardboard tube I had stuffed into my bag against the possibility of a sold-out store, I had what I needed. A few minutes with scissors and tape, and voila! My new filter was ready!
Then it was just a question of time. The stop at the camera store had put us a bit behind schedule, giving us only 3 hours to make what is, at the best of times, a 3-hour drive. I needed all the help I could get from the traffic gods, and the beginning of the drive was not kind. I had accidentally released the hood catch when I was trying to release the parking brake; a few minutes' driving at freeway speeds into the strong headwind made it sound like the van was rattling to pieces! We put up with it while I was driving just a few miles per hour above the legal rate, but as we drew closer to home and we realized we had to pick up the pace, it was time to stop and secure the hood. After that it was just a matter of racing headwinds and the traffic (all speeding, but few speeding fast enough to suit my impatience!) trying to find someplace—anyplace!—that would allow an unobstructed view of the sun.
Having completely forgotten the timing of the event, I phoned my father-in-law to get news of when first contact would occur. He diligently researched the matter and informed me that it would happen sometime between 3:03 and 3:06 p.m. PDT. At every stage, I calculated how far we could make it before we had to pull over at a secondary or tertiary site. Gaviota: too far from home to tell. Buellton: too close to call. Santa Maria: 45 minutes away from home at 2:20.
It was a close shave, but we pulled into the driveway at Rancho Atascajoyner around 2:58. Just a few minutes to set up and find the sun, which can be a bit of a trick. I got everything set up fairly quickly, using the borrowed tripod, and miracle of miracles, I managed to find the sun with relatively little difficulty (a feat I was unable to duplicate when I moved the scope to a more comfortable observing position later in the event).
Here's the setup:
I didn't have an accurate time signal except for the clock on my Blackberry, but as it turns out, my camera's clock was relatively well synced with reality: according to that clock, the transit started right around 3:07, and second contact was right around 3:23.
I took many shots with no idea of whether or not the event had started; the first few moments are very subtle, and 60mm is not a lot of resolving power. But here is the moment of first contact, as near as I can determine at 3:07:22 PDT, just a bit later than predicted, but my after-the-fact timing (determined by taking a picture of the time.gov time and adjusting my camera time based on that) could be wrong:
A closer crop of the same picture:
The next image, taken some 92 seconds later, clearly shows the impinging inner planet:
I had no idea how long there would be between first and second contact, so I frantically took picture after picture, checked the sun out with binoculars (I had my Baader binocular filters from the early 2000s) and discovered that it was a good 10–15 minutes (actually 18 or so!) between first contact and complete ingress.
Back in 2004, there had been a lot of talk about the "black drop" effect that made timing the moment of second contact quite difficult; since I wasn't trying to time it, just take a picture of it, it was a bit easier, but having seriously underestimated the timing, I discovered upon review of the session that I was Very Fortunate Indeed to have captured the moment:
Check out this cropped version to see how hard it is to tell whether Venus is completely free of the sun's limb (3:23:16 PDT):
Even the next shot, about 20 seconds later (3:23:37, is a bit ambiguous:
Cropped version here:
After the first twenty minutes, this once-or-twice-in-a-lifetime event settles into a rather humdrum routine of checking to be sure the planet's still in view; it's not going anywhere for several hours, so split-second timing is no longer necessary. Here's the view from about an hour after the event started:
So after a 6-hour plane ride, a 4-hour van ride, and a 4-minute setup, I had a very nice view of Venus's long slow slide across the face of the sun. I had bought three little solar viewers (the TO Optical filter material sandwiched between cardboard layers) for the other spectators, and I made sure that Eric got to see through the telescope, in hopes that his 109-year-old self will remember the view when it happens again in December 2117. Daniel, on the other hand, didn't seem interested.

In our weekly Sunday liturgy at Grace Toronto church, we pray for our church and the city. It is one of my favorite parts of the service because it helps me to remember, not just the great news of the gospel, but the great responsibility of place. To live anywhere is to answer the call to be a neighbor. And being a neighbor means carrying the burdens of others.
Neighborliness is one word to describe the holy act of the Incarnation: God clothed himself with flesh and pitched his tent among us. This Advent, I am contemplating that mystery—and also finding myself deeply burdened for the world. When it came time for me, this past Sunday, to lead the weekly prayer for the church and the city. I couldn't help but bring a prayer of lament. It seemed fitting, and perhaps it gives words to some of your sorrow and hope.

As soon as you begin living a life that feels more real, truthful, real, authentic. you get so engaged and rewarded by your new discoveries and developments, that you stop at absolutely nothing to remain on this track.
Why Do We Need Substance Abuse Counselors?
Sorry for getting slightly off track. But to answer substance abuse counseling your question, it's because of my great-grandfather and granny that I got on this path. I have actually always had a sense of rugged individualism, and a tough work principles. I think that's why I'm a one-man band. Self-reliance, the D.I.Y.D.S. (Do It Your Damned Self) mindset. Plus I don't work well with others.

Sexual assault can result from being drugged without your understanding. When you are out and about, it is typically a smart idea to stick to bottles of water or drinks that have caps that have to be popped. This indicates that the beverage can not be damaged before it reaches you. After you have your beverage in your hand, keep an eye on it or evaluate it when you are not drinking it. This makes getting drugged much less likely.

Can You Yandle This?
czechtacular on Wed, 2011-07-06 13:33
Rolaids might have to borrow a certain Phoenix defenseman if they want to bring back the old catchphrase.
How do you spell relief? Y-A-N-D-L-E.
The former CHL Defenseman of the Year, who finished fifth in Norris Trophy voting last season after leading all NHL defensemen in scoring right around his first (and likely not his last) All-Star Game appearance has signed on for five more years--yes, five--with the Coyotes, in a deal reportedly worth $26.25 million.
Yandle was one of the main subjects of talks surrounding potential offer sheet targets. But, rather than pursuing any temptations of playing for a market with more exposure, he showed how much he believed in the team that brought him to the pros, regardless of the clouds surrounding their future.
And Phoenix believes in him, too. Free agency has taken its toll on the Coyotes' blueline, which only adds to the list of reasons Yandle will be looked to as a leader this year, as well as the years to come.
The 24-year-old racked up 11 goals and 48 assists in his first full season as an assistant captain for Phoenix, numbers that would eventually put him behind only Lubomir Visnovsky and Nicklas Lidstrom in the offensive defenseman category. Likewise, only Radim Vrbata and Shane Doan put more pucks on net for the Coyotes last season. On the back end, Yandle's early-career tendencies of jumping into the play too early have subsided enough to earn him a +12 rating, all the while eating up the most minutes on the team.
Really, $5.25 million per year is a value signing for a team that has its own, erm, disadvantages on the money side, and the fact that both sides avoided arbitration is a testament to how much they wanted to see eye-to-eye as quickly as possible.
The news comes as another young defenseman drafted from the Moncton Wildcats, Brandon Gormley, is about to enter development camp with 27 other Yotes' prospects including fellow blueliners Maxim Goncharov and 2011 first-round pick Connor Murphy, goaltenders Mark Visentin and Louis Domingue, forwards Brett Hextall and Chris Brown, and Hobey Baker award winner Andy Miele. The sessions, which are to be run at Polar Ice in Peoria, get underway on Thursday, July 7th and end on Sunday, July 10th.
Meanwhile, Phoenix has added other names to their roster via free agency, including Montrealer Alex Bolduc, formerly of the Vancouver Canucks' organization. In signing a one-year deal, the 6'3" forward adds depth to the centre position. Defenseman Tyler Eckford, who played four games with the New Jersey Devils last season and 37 with Lowell of the AHL, signed a one-year, two-way contract of his own and journeyman goaltender Curtis McElhinney, who has had the misfortune of being bounced around to three teams (Calgary, Ottawa, Anaheim) in under two seasons (!) has agreed to terms with the Coyotes, also in a one-year, two-way deal. Originally drafted in 2002 by the Flames in the 6th round, the 28-year-old managed two shutouts, a 2.99 GAA and a .903 save percentage despite going 9-13-1 in his 28 starts.

I like how you said he'd be staying with the Coyotes for five years, and not staying in Phoenix for five years

Yup, still like her.
I like the horrific bags under my eyes (not especially evident in this photo, but trust me they're there) significantly less however. At the risk of sounding like a complete asshole, I looked really good my whole pregnancy. I didn't break out like I did the other times, and my skin was clear and smooth and nice. Since she's been born my skin has stayed fairly clear, but the lack of quality sleep is really taking its toll. Beatrice sleeps like a champ, going two or three hours between feedings with one or two longer breaks thrown in for good measure. Unfortunately, those long breaks are usually in the middle of the afternoon, and she gets hungry with more frequency overnight. She will also sleep all day long a silent as can be, and then at night she grunts and snuffles and makes all kinds of noises even when she is still sleeping. So even though I have been getting sleep, it hasn't been more than two hours at a stretch without disruption.
And apparently I need more than that not to be a haggard mess.
The past two nights I have moved the bassinet into the nursery when Beatrice decided to be wide awake and kicking in the middle of the night, and just let her wiggle and grunt and do her thing until she fell back asleep. I couldn't hear her general noises so I got a longer period of sleep, but I could still hear her if she really started crying and needed me. I'm not ready to move her out of my room full time obviously, but I'm glad I have this option until she gets her days and nights straightened out a little better and our nighttime feedings get less frequent. I can't tell you how much better I felt after sleeping four hours straight instead of just two.
It looks like I'm going to have to do a lot more work on my post-pregnancy recovery as well. Everything went down so quickly at first, but now it seems to have totally stalled out. I was hoping to get a little bit more spontaneous thinning before I had to start working on not being a fat lump. Bummer.
Oh well. I've been trying to eat a little better the past few days, and if I can get a solid sleep schedule working I can add some of my workout videos into my routine until Bee is old enough to take to the gym. After nine months of not working out at all, I probably don't have to tell you I am NOT looking forward to this at all. But I don't want to be mushy forever, so I guess it has to be done.

I think the best thing to do in this case is to use the same test that's in perl.h, which does: #include <errno.h> #ifndef errno extern int errno; #endif While this may not be necessarily correct either, at least it would consistent within the Perl sources, and we can wait for something better to appear in future Perl versions. The Configure script implies that the Perl maintainers are aware of this problem, and will fix it in the future. From looking at the CVS logs for src/sys/sys/errno.h for DragonFly, it appears that the "errno" is always defined if <errno.h> is included, so this test will also work on DragonFly (actually, I notice that your commit of revision 1.6 of that file shows awareness of this issue).

Longest lasting artificial hips: Norman Sharp broke Guinness World Records record
LONDON, UK -- Mr. Norman Sharp was just 23 when, in November 1948, had both new hips implanted in what was then a ground-breaking operation at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH) in Stanmore, near London; those hips have survived to this day, making him a record holder for having the longest lasting artificial hips, according to the World Record Academy.
Photo: Norman Sharp, 91, was 23 when he had the first hip replacement operation of its kind ever done on the NHS in 1948. The pensioner from Trowbridge in Wiltshire has been listed as a record-breaker for having the longest lasting artificial hips, with experts amazed at how they have survived so long. (enlarge photo)
The Guinness World Records world record for the oldest person to have a total hip replacement was John Randall (UK, b. 16 July 1909) who had a revision left total hip replacement at the age of 102 years, 3 months and 30 days. The operation was performed by Mr Ajit Shetty, Mr Ashad Lateef and Dr Patrick O'Connor at Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield, UK on 15 November 2011.
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the oldest person to have undergone partial hip replacement surgery is Gladys Ada Elizabeth Hooper (née Nash, UK, 18 January 1903), who was 112 years 264 days when the operation was performed at St Mary's Hospital, Isle of Wight, UK, on 9 October 2015.
Mr Sharp was just 23 when, in November 1948, had both new hips implanted in what was then a ground-breaking operation at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH) in Stanmore, near London, The Western Daily Press reports.
Remarkably, they have remained in place ever since, requiring no revisions. "According to experts in orthopaedic medicine, this is very unusual and a recognised world record," said a spokesman for the RNOH.
"The hips, which are made of a special alloy called Vitallium, developed in the USA in 1932, were implanted by consultant orthopaedic surgeon Philip Newman in what many think was the first procedure of its kind by the then newly formed NHS.
Now one of the oldest hipsters in town, Mr Sharp said he was chosen for the pioneering operation back in 1948 because he was a young man who was suffering from rare problems with his joints. He said he has made good use of them over the last 67 years.

GH2 + SLR Magic 12mm 1.6
A short featuring Sara Roholt fly fishing for trout using two-handed or "spey" rods on the Missouri River, Montana in Dec. 2011.
This type of fishing is most commonly associated with Steelhead and Atlantic Salmon fishing, but we find that it is extremely effective for trout on our river, especially during the winter months. You can learn more at headhuntersflyshop.com/wp
Shot on an un-hacked Panasonic GH2 at 720 60p and edited in FCP X.
-Hyperprime 12mm 1.6-
The entire shoot was done with the new SLR Magic/Noktor Hyperprime 12mm f1.6 lens. This great lens gave this amateur a crash course in full manual video shooting. Once I got the hang of using the lens, I really liked it. It loves the subject close to the camera. Most segments were shot from 1.6 - 2.8, some to f4-8. You can see slight vignetting when wide open, but not bothersome to me.
The wide angle and almost "macro" (less than 6") capabilities are perfect for the kind of shooting we do while fishing.
"Time Lapse' sequences at beginning and end were shot using the GH2 300% feature. First time for that as well. Not amazing quality, but quick and easy.

City council settles with parents of teen killed by police
Published 7:00 pm, Wednesday, May 28, 2008
The parents of an unarmed teenager shot to death in 2003 by a rookie police officer said they are happy with the Houston City Council's decision to settle their lawsuit.
The settlement voted on Wednesday includes a new set of gun-training standards for officers and cadets that emphasize when not to shoot and how to avoid accidentally firing weapons.
The agreement also includes a $1.5 million payment, a condolence letter from Houston Mayor Bill White, a plaque on city property honoring the life of slain 14-year-old Eli Eloy Escobar and more crisis intervention training for police officers.
"It means my son meant something. His death meant something," Lydia Escobar said in a story Thursday in the Houston Chronicle. "Now, I can understand my son's death."
"My son was the most precious thing in my life," she said. "God gave me one."
Eli was killed in November 2003 by rookie officer Arthur J. Carbonneau, who was convicted of criminally negligent homicide. Prosecutors said Carbonneau deliberately shot Escobar as the teen fought with him and Officer Ronald Olivo outside a friend's northwest Houston apartment. Carbonneau contended the shooting was accidental.
Police said the two officers, who were looking for a suspect in an earlier assault, were trying to handcuff and subdue Escobar because he would not follow their commands.
When Carbonneau drew his weapon after Escobar kicked him in the groin, the teen kicked the officer's arm and the pistol fired, hitting him in the head, police said.

Victoria's Secret came under fire last week when Angel Candice Swanepoel showed up at a promotional event for the brand looking "shockingly thin". While it's no great discovery that a supermodel might be vastly skinnier than everybody else on the planet, the photo comparison of Swanepoel in November versus Swanepoel in April was cause for worry: one showed a woman with (dare I say) curvy hips and thighs and clearly defined abdominal muscles; while the other depicted her as being significantly slimmer than she once was. A vaguely dismissive response was issued: "I'm heartened to know how much everyone cares about me, but in this case, everything is normal and good," she said. The Cut's Amy Odell weighed in, saying, "Like, can you believe she is thin? Can you believe this Victoria's Secret supermodel would dare to maybe even be a tiny bit thinner than she was a few months ago or perhaps — oh, God, could this be possible — have stayed the same size? Can you believe these two photos of her? Why, they're — they're just … so … shocking!!!" And then, like with everything else in fashion, something else occurred that was exciting or scandalous or pretty and everybody forgot all about it.
But then this week Victoria's Secret signed a new Angel, 18 year old Kate Upton (star of the Youtube clip above), apparently in response to the criticism. Upton is described as "curvaceous," with a "healthy figure," and, hopefully, "a return for Victoria's Secret to its original roster of curvy models that made the brand so famous."
This time, Amy Odell had something a little more serious to say: "So yay for Kate Upton, who may represent a healthier, more attainable body type than many of her colleagues, but who may also have her fellow models in a quandary about how they should look if their current figures are no longer the ideal. For famous women, there is seldom a right weight."
And I reckon that final sentence is about the best thing I've ever read about the problem of putting so much emphasis on 'ideal' body types. Whatever is in vogue at any particular point of time will alienate a giant chunk of the population at large (no pun intended). So what's the solution? Selecting models based on good personalities? Or encouraging designers to showcase their clothes on a myriad different sized women?
Call me a pessimist but I'm of the Anja Rubik school of thought: "I don't think it will ever change because… There are too many girls who would do the job if you don't do it, so I don't think it's possible to unite all of the girls say, 'No, we want this and these conditions.' I think that's crazy, It'll never happen. I think it's mission impossible."

Joint with three revolute and one prismatic joint primitives
First Generation/Joints
This content is specific to Simscape™ Multibody™ First Generation software. First-generation features are slated to be deprecated and should be avoided.
The Telescoping block represents a composite joint with one translational degrees of freedom (DoF) as one prismatic primitive and three rotational DoFs as one spherical primitive. There are no constraints among the primitives. Unlike Bearing, Telescoping represents the rotational DoFs as one spherical, rather than as three revolutes.
A Joint block represents the relative degrees of freedom between two bodies, not the bodies themselves.
You must connect any Joint block to two and only two Body blocks, the base and the follower. All Joints have two connector ports for these connections, defining the direction of joint motion (base to follower). You connect each side of the Joint block to these Body blocks at a Body coordinate system (CS) port.
You specify the joint primitive axes, if any, in the Joint dialog.
This Joint block is assembled and places restrictions on the connected Body CSs.
If the Joint has no prismatic primitives, the origins of the connected Body CSs on either side of the Joint must be spatially collocated points, to within assembly tolerances.
If the Joint has one or more prismatic primitives, the origins of the connected Body CSs must lie in the span of the prismatic axes:
|Number of Prismatic Primitives
|Span of Primitive Axes
|Along the primitive axis
|In the plane of the primitive axes
|Anywhere in three-dimensional space
The dialog has two active areas, Connection parameters and Parameters.
The base (B)-follower (F) Body sequence determines the sense of positive motion. Positive translation is the follower moving in the direction of the translation axis. Positive spherical motion is the follower rotating in the right-handed sense as shown in the Spherical block figure.
When you connect the base (B) connector port on the Telescoping block to a Body CS Port on a Body, this parameter is automatically reset to the name of this Body CS. See the following figure, Telescoping Base and Follower Body Connector Ports.
The base Body is automatically connected to the first joint
S in the primitive list in Parameters.
When you connect the follower (F) connector port on the Telescoping block to a Body CS Port on a Body, this parameter is automatically reset to the name of this Body CS. See the following figure, Telescoping Base and Follower Body Connector Ports.
The follower Body is automatically connected to the last joint
P1 in the primitive list in Parameters.
Using this spinner menu, you can set the number of extra connector
ports needed for connecting Joint Actuator and Joint Sensor blocks
to this Joint. The default is
The motion of prismatic primitives is specified in linear units. The motion of spherical primitives is specified by a dimensionless quaternion.
Telescoping Base and Follower Body Connector Ports
Switch between the Axes and Advanced tabs.
The entries on the Axes tab are required. Each DoF primitive in Telescoping has an entry line. These lines specify the direction of the axes of action of the DoFs that Telescoping represents.
The primitive list states the names and types of joint primitives
that make up the Telescoping block: spherical primitive
S and
prismatic primitives
Enter here as a three-component vector the directional axes defining the allowed motions of these primitives and their corresponding DoFs:
Prismatic: axis of translation
Spherical: field is not active
The default vectors are shown in the dialog above. The axis is a directed vector whose overall sign matters.
Using the pull-down menu, choose the coordinate system (World,
the base Body CS, or the follower Body CS) whose coordinate axes the
vector axis of action is oriented with respect to. This CS also determines
the absolute meaning of forces/torques and motion along/about the
joint axis. The default is
The Advanced tab is optional. You use it to control the way Simscape Multibody simulation interprets the topology of your schematic diagram.
In a closed loop, the simulation internally and automatically cuts one and only one joint.
If you want this particular joint to be weighted preferentially for cutting during the simulation, select the check box. The default is not selected.
Bearing, Prismatic, Six-DoF, Spherical
See Modeling Degrees of Freedom for more on representing DoFs with Joints.
See Checking Model Topology and How Simscape Multibody Software Works for more on closed loops and cutting.

Patriots Notebook
Holt going by the book
Veteran wideout ready to absorb the offense
By Monique Walker Globe Staff / April 22, 2010
Text size – +
The newest member of the Patriots receiver corps isn't expecting age to slow him down in his 12th NFL season. Torry Holt may not be as fast as he was the day the Rams drafted him in the first round in 1999, but that doesn't mean he can't contribute. (Full article: 531 words)
