Last week we moved my grandmother into a nursing home.
This was not an easy decision nor was it easy for anyone involved.
My grandmother is mad. She is 90 years old and in late stage dementia. Which means this decision my parents made to move her from her home 5 hours away to the assisted living facility has to be explained and reexplained several times a day.
Her home isn't safe for her. The bathrooms have black mold and need to be gutted and nothing in the kitchen works. She can't take care of herself anymore and her care is more than my baby sister, who has been living with her the last several years, should have to handle.
But she is just mad. She wants to be in her home. She feels like she has no control. She is scared. She feels abandoned. She just wants to go home.
Assisted living is the best decision for her.
I can't even begin to imagine what it is like for her. The closest I can come is how I felt in the recovery room after Dylan was born. I had a C-Section which of course comes with a spinal block. I was in the recovery room for what seemed like forever. I remember laying there and starting to panic. I didn't know where my son was. My legs wouldn't move yet and I was sure I should have been able to move them by that time. I didn't know if my son was healthy. I started to wonder how I was going to take care of two little boys if my legs never moved again. I was alone. Completely alone. And because of the drugs my thoughts were jumbled and didn't seem to be working right. I wanted to sit up, to ask for help, to ask questions, but my body and my mouth wouldn't cooperate. And I was so tired.
That scared, panicked feeling, that feeling of having no control over my body and my mind, is what I imagine my grandmother is going through.
It makes me wish I was better at people. It makes me wish I knew what to say and what to do to make her feel better. But I don't.
My middle sister is great at people. She can talk to anyone. She can talk to my grandmother and take her mind off of everything that is happening. My youngest sister can take charge. She can get things done and make everyone feel like the situation is under control no matter what. But when it comes to people, I feel like I make the situation worse. I stink at small talk. I don't put people at ease. But you tell me what medications she is taking and I will research the heck out of them and know everything there is to know by the end of the day. Not really super helpful right now.
And this situation has also made me think about what I want when I get older. How will I want my own sons to care for me when I am no longer able? Honestly, I can't imagine myself at 90. I can't imagine myself at 60. I'm struggling with 40 and that's only a couple years away!
I just hope that when I reach the age where I can no longer care for myself, that my sons are willing to take care of me the way my dad is taking care of my grandmother. I hope my sons have wives who are as concerned and loving as my mom. I hope I have grandchildren like my sisters. And I hope that I have lived a life that is as worthwhile and full as the life my grandmother has.GranLois, Dylan, Christopher

See the law. Imagine you take out a Car Title Loans Goldsboro Nc to be paid back with by your next pay period. If you do not spend the money for loan back promptly, the lender can use that this check you used as collateral whether there is an cash in your bank account or otherwise.

Uniform power tariff being planned for Mumbai, may reduce your bill
Energy minister has asked officials of BEST, RInfra, Tata Power and MSEDCL to look at a uniform tariff for those consuming between 0-300 units; most of city's residential consumers fall under this category
If the Maharashtra government has its way, most Mumbaikars may pay uniform rates for electricity, irrespective of their power distributor. The tariff may also be lower than the one that they are currently paying.
Of the three major electricity providers, RInfra has the highest number of consumers in the 0-300 units category. File Pic
On Monday, State Energy Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule met officials of BEST, Tata Power, Reliance Infrastructure and Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd (MSEDCL), the four companies that distribute power in Mumbai, and asked them to look at having a uniform tariff for residential consumers who use less than 300 units a month.
Speaking to mid-day, the minister said, "We have asked all four power distributors to look at ways to have uniform electricity tariffs for residential consumers consuming between 0 and 300 units. This might also result in lower tariffs. However, the final decision lies with the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC)." MERC is a quasi-judicial body which decides power tariffs annually.
In Mumbai, there are more than 42 lakh power consumers, of which a majority consume less than 300 units a month. Out of this, the BEST has 10 lakh consumers, Tata Power has over 6 lakh consumers, and Reliance Infra has around 26 lakh consumers. MSEDCL supplies electricity to a few thousand residents in areas like Mulund and Bhandup.
Sources said the main hurdle in having uniform tariff slabs will be deciding on what would be the ideal tariff for Mumbai. If the proposed rates for the current fiscal are taken into account (see box), BEST, which supplies electricity in the island
city, between Colaba to Mahim/Sion, is the costliest, followed by Tata Power, which caters to the suburbs. Reliance Infrastructure, which supplies power in parts of the western and eastern suburbs, is the cheapest of the three.
Sources said that, in accordance with the current methodology, the uniform tariff between 0-300 units will be divided into two slabs. There will be a lower rate for the first 100 units and a higher one for 101-300 units.
RInfra claims that 22 lakh of its 26 lakh consumers fall under the 0-300 unit category. The number is 5.5 lakh out of 10 lakh for BEST, and over 3 lakh out of 6 lakh for Tata Power.
The method of calculation of an ideal uniform tariff hasn't been decided yet and, in all likelihood, either the tariff of BEST, Tata Power or RInfra will be taken as the standard, or the average of all three will be the uniform rate. However, the final approval will be given by the MERC, once a full-fledged proposal is made by the state government.
"The state government will have to cross-subsidise around Rs 3,000 crore to these distribution companies if they have
a uniform tariff. This shouldn't burden people again," contended a power expert.

Industry goes mad for IPTV
London forum feeding frenzy
Posted in Networks, 9th March 2006 11:41 GMT
There was a queue at IPTV Forum in London last week, all the way back past the lifts and round into the bar area. That was the first statement about what should have been yet another unsurprising show about IPTV, that there is real main stream interest out there now and everyone wants to get in on the action.
As the dazed organisers tried to get everyone into the keynote session, delay was inevitable and a certain amount of chaos ensued, a pithy analogy for the industry itself. But the reason for the size of the audience and the unexpected success of the show was surely because each of the companies that have made the IPTV industry over the past five years had brought their big guns to the fore with CEOs on the speaking program of IPTV pioneers Kasenna, Entone, BT Entertainment, BitBand, Video Networks, Widevine, and the keynote opened with someone who is perhaps symbolic of IPTV in Europe, Myrio CEO Chris Coles.
Coles represents the "other" side of IPTV, how the industry likes to see itself, made up of small innovators who have gleaned important secrets in how to make IPTV and triple play work. Although Myrio is one of the two leading middleware companies (the other is Orca), it is now owned by Siemens, which in itself represents the counterpoint to a US IPTV world that is now coming to be dominated by Microsoft.
So giving Myrio the keynote and not having Microsoft talk until the third day gives the impression that all is right with the world and that IPTV is still a domain for investment and innovation, and that it is not going through a period of consolidation.
However the truth is that IPTV is going through a first round of consolidation.
We talked to Kreatel at the show which said that it was "business as usual for 2006", after its acquisition by Motorola and that they "hope" that they will become the centre for R&D for IPTV for Motorola, but weren't really too sure.
Scientific Atlanta were in evidence, but how long will its logo be seen at these shows, when the Cisco one is so well known, and also we saw Skystream, recently acquired by Tandberg TV in what might be its last year as a separate organization. Already missing was Philips' CryptoWorks, acquired recently by Irdeto, but already having its marketing efforts absorbed into its new parent.
And consolidation won't stop there. Does the world have room for 60 set top suppliers? Surely not now that Kreatel has gone. Does the world need more than a handful of alternative conditional access suppliers and companies like Telenor's Conax and France Telecom's ViaAccess, seem superfluous and ripe for acquisition despite being owner by notable parents.
At the end of Coles keynote he called on Telcos to go beyond the role of merely providing data transport systems and there and then he stated the idea that divides the entire 2,000 or so people at the show...
If Telcos do try to operate a triple play, and try to become more than just the data transport system, they will come to threaten everything and everyone. Two such believers in the walled garden approach to telcos have made enough big news this week with AT&T (nee SBC Communications) CEO Ed Whitacre and his counterpart at Bellsouth Duane Ackerman, both well known for their forthright views on charging companies like Google to use their access highways.
A merged AT&T and Bellsouth will represent a bigger lobbying force in favor of walled gardens, because these guys think they should own a piece of everything that comes through their network, by right.
Whispers of the merger went around the show like wildfire on Monday and then it was announced later in the US. It looks like a done deal. Twenty years ago when the RBOCs were formed and AT&T was broken up by consent decree, there was no competition to AT&T.
Now the cable companies and Sprint and other wireless networks, potentially in partnership with satellite TV companies, along with VoIP operations from Vonage to Skype, all represent some kind of competition and Bellsouth and AT&T being brought together will look, at least in the wireline world, more like tying together two stones to see if "now" they'll float.
The two companies will get through the regulatory and monopolies issues comfortably, but still have all of the issues they had before the merger. Before, they were two companies that did not compete anywhere and even shared the largest mobile operator in the US. Now, with the exception of the being a singularity of direction at Cingular (which needs it badly as it is being outflanked day to day by Verizon Wireless), there is little changed.
But for IPTV there is one big chance that has now slipped by. Bell-south had continually refused to commit to Microsoft and Alcatel IPTV, stating that it was trialing Microsoft, but not yet ready to go further as it ploughed its own furrow in IPTV, which is said time and again had different need from AT&T. Bellsouth had continued to hold talks with every IPTV and telecoms supplier with a view to covering any strategic possibility for IPTV and kept all their hopes open that it might decide to go with conventional IPTV suppliers after all.
Now under AT&T's committed IPTV direction, that possibility is extinguished. Bellsouth cannot make any concerted expenditure decision during the year or so that it will take to complete the merger, and then it is certain to go forward with an extension to AT&T's project Lightspeed.
Given that Microsoft already controls the (non-IPTV) fibre TV at Verizon with its cable based TV Foundation Edition software, that gives it a clean sweep of all the US majors, with Bellsouth coming more by default than decision.
It was IBM that raised most clearly the issue of Wall Gardens at the show, through its consulting arm that was once PWC, and Bill Scott the leader of digital media consulting. IBM put out a report on "The end of TV as we know it", a few weeks back and we covered it in detail.
The report makes some genuinely valid new points about TV. It is carefully constructed, well argued, and derived from 65 interviews with senior industry executives, Wall Street analysts, economists and technology visionaries although we're a bit miffed that they didn't talk to us. Additionally, it had extra research from the Economist Intelligence Unit, which carried out another 108 interviews across cable, satellite, telco, broadcast and TV networks executives from Europe, Asia and North America.
Fundamentally, it expressed the old argument about diversifying new video models such as DVR, web TV and video downloads, creating a stratification of fragmented TV services, with the existing $60bn of US TV advertising revenue being spread over more and more players.
What IBM says will initially happen is that the world will split into two types of individuals, those that remain largely passive in the living room and those that expect content anytime, anywhere through multiple channels on multiple devices. This latter grouping, driven by both the young and the gadget conscious, will demand platform ag-nostic content, mobility of media experiences, individualised pricing schemes and an end to the traditional concept of release windows.
Opposing this view was Martin Cullum, general manager for video networks at Bell Canada, who summarised the view to a shocked audience that "there is a lot of mileage yet in the walled garden business model", referring to a network where only the owner of the network can deliver services over it. He added: "The best way to stop Google coming onto your TV screen is not to put an html browser on it in the first place."
This brought howls of derision and left many of the audience shaking their heads at such a "head in the sand" attitude, and no-one was really sure whether or not to take him seriously. As an adherent to Microsoft IPTV Cullum is of course referring to the fact that currently its set top architecture uses a discreet proprietary client, with no browser.
Later Mark Gray, CEO of VoD and middleware company Kasenna, said that at the moment he had 500 TV channels with "none of what I want to watch", and he called for a single channel with "everything I want to watch" on it. "TV should be a portal through which to offer a huge variety of services, where each new service could be quickly and inexpensively added."
Gray was echoing IBM who took up the running through Scott once more, clear on how IBM sees the market developing. "It's like going to a shop, and picking up what you fancy. It's too much trouble to go to another shop. In Pay TV terms, going to another shop is canceling contracts and finding another supplier.
"Most TV is like that these days. If you buy Sky (or DirecTV or Dish or Comcast), you get everything from that supplier, the set top, the EPG, the channels it has bought in. It's much the same when you buy from a cable operator or an IPTV company, but it won't stay that way.
"Today when you buy a CD over the internet your ISP has no say in what you choose and who you buy it from. You can go to Amazon and order a CD whatever ISP you are signed up with, and that's how we see pay TV going.
"As content becomes more and more available over the internet, the companies who will win with consumers are those that will open up a route to lots of different content providers so that TV is more like the internet. Operators should be working out how to charge content owners for a Quality of Service guaranteed route to the home"
"Once a tier 2 telco that cannot afford to build its own services begins to offer a QoS route to its customers, then everyone else will have to follow," Scott said.
And according to Scott, much of this is already beginning to happen with shorter release windows for content and stronger content protection technologies, and he said that AACS, the content protection grouping that came together to build a standard for next generation DVDs, is planning to extend the model to protect content moving in and around the home.
Privately Scott told Faultline: "The public face of many operators is to say that none of this is coming, but privately we have had a huge amount of interest since we wrote this paper on TV."
Ironically, on virtually the same day as the show and the AT&T Bellsouth merger announcement, a US senator (see separate story) has introduced the Internet Nondiscrimination Bill, which will make it illegal for a company like AT&T to offer different speeds of access to different types of content over its internet connections.
This is in response to AT&T wanting to charge Google and Amazon fees to have speedier access to their customers. AT&T would have to actually apply a brake to these services actively by building in QoS controls, just what Scott of IBM wants to happen. There is a big difference in guaranteeing speeds using QoS, and deliberately slowing traffic that won't pay a tollcharge.
If the US had a sensible unbundling structure like most parts of Europe and some parts of the Far East, this couldn't happen. But legal challenge killed that off two years ago in the US and increasingly it looks like European IPTV, through enlightened regulation, will end up with a more competitive IPTV world where walled gardens don't work, while the US will use big business lobby power to produce IPTV and a triple play that's only available through monopolistic incumbents.

Total ankle replacement surgery is a treatment that occasionally becomes necessary when an injury or debilitating condition cannot be treated with other surgical or non-surgical methods. Foot and ankle pain is a rather common occurrence, whether as a natural result of aging or due to an accident, and it can limit your ability to run, walk, dance, and do the things you love and need to do on a regular basis. If you have recently sustained a severe ankle injury, or if arthritis or another condition is affecting your ankle joint, you should talk to your doctor before the pain and damage gets any worse.
Most incidents of ankle pain are the result of a simple sprain, which can be treated by relatively simple steps at home: elevation, ice, and rest while the ankle heals naturally. Unfortunately, some patients suffer from devastating injuries to their ankles, or the cartilage in the ankle joint gradually deteriorates to the point that it becomes extremely painful and difficult just to walk, let alone tolerate any more serious impact from faster movements.
Rothman Institute treats a wide variety of foot and ankle conditions, including broken bones, damaged tendons, torn ligaments, arthritis, and various injuries that are typical of athletes. Some of the most severe cases require what is known as an ankle arthroplasty, more commonly called total ankle replacement surgery. Our surgeons who specialize in the procedure for total ankle replacement are some of the top foot and ankle physicians in the country. Even people from far outside of the Philadelphia area often call the ankle specialists at Rothman Institute for information on the best practices and techniques for ankle arthroplasty.
If you and your doctor have discussed the condition of your ankle and are currently considering the option of surgery for total ankle replacement, read some of these commonly asked questions about this procedure.
Total Ankle Replacement Surgery: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need total ankle replacement surgery?
The surgeons at Rothman Institute take a conservative approach in recommending surgery to any patient. In most cases, we will explore a series of non-surgical treatments before exploring surgical options. If it is possible to remedy the issue without giving the patient an ankle prosthesis, this may be the optimal treatment, depending on the patient's medical condition, age, lifestyle, and other factors to be considered by the physicians.
What does the ankle arthroplasty surgery entail?
The first step in an ankle replacement surgery is the removal of both sides of the ankle. After these are removed, a prosthesis is inserted into the tibia and fibula (leg bones). This prosthesis is made of medical grade plastic with a titanium base. The talar part of the joint, which is responsible for the ability of the ankle joint to move up and down, is replaced with a cobalt chromium alloy (a common metal in medical prostheses).
What are the risks of this surgery?
While every surgery has potential risks, total ankle replacement surgeries are relatively safe and successful. If a Rothman Institute surgeon has recommended this procedure, it is likely that a more conservative option would be equally risky or ineffective for your pain and debilitation.
How long will it take to recover?
After your surgery, you will wear a splint or ankle boot for several days, after which you will be able to remove the boot to perform some simple ankle exercises. You will continue to wear the splint when you are not exercising, and you will need to use crutches or a walker to move around for approximately six weeks following your surgery. If other procedures are required alongside of your total ankle replacement surgery, you may not be able to begin ankle exercises for two or three weeks after surgery. Some patients will require a physical therapist to help them through the recovery process; however, not all patients' recovery processes are the same.
Contact Rothman Institute with any further questions or concerns about total ankle replacement surgery. We look forward to helping you on your road to a more active and pain-free life.

Hi! Not that this constitutes any major BNF flaw, but the moveto-argument-sequence has a rather fishy cut'n'paste:o-ish reference to lineto-argument-sequence for no apparent reason -- quoting relevant parts: [http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/paths.html#PathDataBNF] moveto: ( "M" | "m" ) wsp* moveto-argument-sequence moveto-argument-sequence: coordinate-pair | coordinate-pair comma-wsp? lineto-argument-sequence ^^^^ lineto: ( "L" | "l" ) wsp* lineto-argument-sequence lineto-argument-sequence: coordinate-pair | coordinate-pair comma-wsp? lineto-argument-sequence It was probably intended to read moveto-argument-sequence there, or, if not, the grammar for moveto: could be rid of its moveto-argument-sequence rule and refer to lineto-argument-sequence rule right away, as in: moveto: ( "M" | "m" ) wsp* lineto-argument-sequence (Though I presume that kind of "optimisation" is not intentional, or it would have been applied in lots of different other places throughout the BNF.) -- / Johan Sundström (Lysator Academic Computer Society)Received on Friday, 6 February 2004 20:30:04 UTC

According to the Spiritual Law of Success, 'success' comes to us when we both send out and receive the right energies. Success occurs when our personal (or collective) vibration resonates with the vibration of the desired outcome. Our thoughts, mind-sets and beliefs create an energy which vibrates around us. When we believe in ourselves, success follows.
To activate the Spiritual Law of Success we must clear out the mental, emotional and physical clutter. We cannot succeed if we don't know where we are going and what it is that we truly wish to succeed at or with.
In material terms, success can mean achieving our desired outcome. The easiest way to achieve material success is to activate and abide by the SPIRITUAL LAW OF ATTENTION. We must be clear about what we want, have the necessary faith in ourselves, and work steadily and steadfastly towards our vision.
For success in love, we are to take notice of the beliefs we hold about love. People who create success have the self-belief of 'I am lovable', 'I lovingly respond to others', and 'I give of myself lovingly and generously'.
To achieve business success, we must have the belief that 'I deserve to succeed', 'I can trust others', and 'I deserve to have good things'.
Spiritually, success means believing in ourselves, doing the best we can and desiring and achieving the highest and best outcome for all.
The Spiritual Law of Success dictates that if success arrives seemingly from out of nowhere, then it is 'karmic'. It is our karma, which is the reward for work well done in a past life being reaped in this one. Karma has placed you in the right circumstances, in the right place at the right time, and equipped with the appropriate mind-set and beliefs.
Within the Spiritual Law of Success, in order to succeed we must also follow and abide by the SPIRITUAL LAW OF FLOW. If we wish to activate the Spiritual Law of Success and allow the wheel of fortune to turn in our favour, we must let go of any negativities and maintain a positive focus on where we wish to be and what we wish to succeed at/with.
The Spiritual Law of Success tells us that success occurs when our vibration resonates with the vibration of the outcome we desire.

Traditional Media
Traditional media includes original models, storyboards, sketches, pastels, paintings, drawings, colour scripts, and clay figures, and is incredibly important to a computer animated film. The artists of Pixar create thousands of artworks to help in discovering a film's characters and worlds. Traditional media is used during the development stage of a film, to provide inspiration to the animators, and to create the look and feel of the film. The work they do is inspiring and often not seen outside the studio.
Many people do not realise there are as many artists at Pixar working in traditional media—hand drawing, painting, pastels, sculpture—as in digital media. Most of their work takes place during the development of a project, when Pixar is working out the story and the look of the film. The wealth of beautiful art created for each movie is rarely seen outside the studio, but the finished film Pixar sends around the world would never be possible without it.
Tradition media tells the story behind the stories, revealing where the ideas for Pixar's animated classics originated, and how the films were brought to life. Traditional media includes original models, storyboards, sketches, pastels, paintings, drawings, colour scripts, and clay figures.
The image below shows the use of traditional media. During the development stage of a movie the art department creates concept sketches, paintings, models, and drawings. The image shows a group of animators looking at the concept sketches, photographs, colour scripts, and models; to gain inspiration on how they will animate their characters, design the environment, and create the look and feel of the film.
The following are pieces of traditional media created by Pixar to help in the creation and design of their computer animated films:

KPG's Matchprint Color RIP Gets One-Bit TIFF Interface
Helps users implement a ROOM workflow
Kodak Polychrome Graphics (KPG)'s One Bit TIFF Interface (OBTi) allows users of the Matchprint Color RIP to proof separated screened one-bit TIFF files on a large-format inkjet proofer. They can optimize their proofing and print production processes by implementing a ROOM (RIP Once Output Many) workflow and using the same files generated for the proof to produce the plates for the pressroom.
KPG's free TIFF test is available for download from the company website. This application determines the compatibility of a TIFF file with OBTi, and it also diagnoses possible problems with TIFF files.
OBTi is compatible with multipage, multicolor one-bit TIFF files created by Creo Brisque, Prinergy, Presstek ECRM, Agfa Apogee, and PCC workflows. It supports TIFF 6.0, TIFF G3, TIFF G4, Packbit, and LZW compressed and uncompressed TIFF files. (Kodak Polychrome Graphics: www.kpgraphics.com).

Door locks have their own agenda
I have an issue with my door locks I'm going to look into later this week but I thought I would get some input from you guys. When I lock my door , either side, it will immediately unlock the other side if its locked. The only effective way to lock the doors is to simultaneously hold both door locks to lock and the lock actuator tweaks out for 3 second or so, almost vibrating I guess, trying to unlock the door until it gives up and the doors are locked. I don't know if anyone else has had this issue, I'm just curious how the system originally works because it seems like it's missing some kind of input the allows it to let the doors lock seeing as it always wants to be unlocked. Believe me, I know I can just pull the fuse or something lol if anyone knows off hand from their own car how the power locks work/why they normally won't lock that would be great, thanks

Do you have an aftermarket alarm system in the car?
Hi my name is Steinkrunk and I have an addiction to 240's
Re: Door locks have their own agenda
Not that I know of, I haven't seen one anywhere and it doesn't have one of those goofy fog horns under the hood, it didn't come with a fob or any mention of it, I guess that's possible, how do the stock power locks work? You just press a button and they both lock or unlock? Simple as that? Or is it just one side? It seems like it's stuck as some kinda fail safe designed to prevent you from locking your keys in the car.

Re: Door locks have their own agenda
even without an alarm electric door locks are controlled by a "security" module under the dash... if BOTH locks are acting wonky I would suspect a failing module. I know on an S14 it's located behind the hood release.. I'm not sure about S13s.
I would try to find a new one through a part-out... it's not a part that people generally care about so you could probably get one cheap/free.
Every job is a self-portrait of the person who did it... Autograph your work with excellence.

Hi Team,
Recently APTRANSCO has taken up underground high voltage cabling work in my area erragadda,hyderabad,andhra pradesh.
Because of the need to take up the work the roads have been dug up to 6 feet one side across the complete stretch thus causing lot of inconvenience to the public due to restriction in movement.
Though i would accept the digging of roads and would take the inconvenience to a larger extent the delay in completing the work is frustrating and thus some questions have cropped in the mind which i would like to ask APTRANSCO under the RTI ACT.
Thus i need your help in framing the correct questions for the questions given below which are lingering in my mind
1)Why was the work taken up in the monsoon when it is known to cause delays due to water logging in the dug up portion.(The reason this question i had this in mind is because cost overruns is one of the main practice for indulging in corruption and the work being taken up in monsoon definitely delays work)
2)What is the road relaying plan?(Some portions of the road the cabling work is done and the trench has been covered with loose sand and due to rain it has turned slushy thus becoming very difficult to drive)
Looking forward for your responses and also do let me know if any additional information is required from my end and also if anything additional questions can be asked to APTRANSCO under RTI ACT.

That is how old my niece is going to be tomorrow! Seriously, where have the past 5 years gone? Cecelia is such an amazing little person… and I'm not just saying that because I am her aunt! By the age of 3, she was using the word nocturnal in a sentence and correctly identifying over 50 different species of birds. Yeah, she's wicked smart. She's also very sensitive and incredibly loving. Watching her grow and evolve over the past 5 years has been truly amazing!
Last Saturday was Cecelia's birthday party, it was held at a gymnastics facility near her parents' home. For about an hour Cece and friends ran around an obstacle course, jumped into foam pits, and bounced on various trampolines. The adults, myself included, were really jealous of all the fun the kids were having!
After everyone was finished tumbling it was time for cake and presents. This is where aunt DD shines. With the exception of books, I've never purchased anything for her. Everything has been made by hand, with love, from me. So when Cece stopped opening her gifts and announced "Aunt DD, I want to open your present" I melted!
Several months ago Cece decided she wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. Coming from a large family of animal lovers this was not much of a surprise. She frequently tends to her sick kitties and puppies administering medications and placing them on a strict regimen of bed rest. Clearly I had to create something to assist her health-promoting care.
I whipped up a few felt band-aids for her "recovery room". As you can see in the picture some are for injured animals others are for healed animals. They have elastic on the back so they can fit a wide array of stuffed animals. When my mother saw these she shook her head and placed her hand on her face. I don't think my brother was too excited about them either. Cece thought they were cool and frankly, that is all that matters.
Any one who knows me, Cecelia, or follows this blog is aware of her OBSESSIVE LOVE for deer. Last year I made her this dress, which is one of her favorite garments. Keeping with tradition, I wanted to make her something deer-themed again. She loves playing dress-up but making a deer costume was a challenge I did not want to take on, so I settled for a "Fluffy" mask instead!
Fluffy is the yearling that regularly visits my parents' home. Cece LOVES him and is always asking Grammy if she has seen him when she calls. My mom framed a photo of Fluffy and his family for Cece's room.
Some of my stitcher friends have mad skills when it comes to making felt masks, me, not so much. And, in true professional procrastinator style, I waited 'til the morning of her party to make her presents. What can I say, I'm a busy girl! It kind of looks like a cross between an owl and a cat. I probably should have made the ears longer and thinner, but whatever. The birthday girl didn't care, she loved it and immediately put it on!

O'Neill On Gabby & The Hokey Cokey
Martin O'Neill has been praising Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor and new boy Nigel Reo-Coker.
The Villa boss says Gabby could well push for contention in the England set up and says Reo-Coker could become our Roy Keane. Correct on both counts!!!
On Gabby he told the official site:
'Gabby has been terrific for us. He wants to improve and is not one of those who is content to sit around and be happy with being in the squad. He wants to get better. Against Inter Milan last Saturday he took on world-class players who found it hard to deal with him. After 12-14 games last season I was asked if he was capable of making the step up into the full England squad. I am more equipped now to talk about that. I would have to say he is capable of doing it. He is looking very sharp at the moment and that may be to do with the fact he had a decent amount of rest in the summer.'
And on the Hokey Cokey he says:
'Reo-Coker is a player in the same mould as Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira. He's a player, there's no doubt about it. Roy Keane might not have had the skill of Thierry Henry but Roy Keane was a player. He's capable of being a top-quality player. I'm delighted with him so far.'

For ages I have had it in my mind to make homemade breakfast sausage. I knew that it couldn't be that complicated. Yet, I never quite got around to doing it. How is it that sometimes the simplest things of all seem the most daunting? Well, I cannot say that I will never buy sausage at the grocery store again. However, I implore you to give this a shot. The base ingredient is fatty pork, and beyond that, you can do whatever you please. I even managed to score some wild boar at Bolsa Mercado to mix into my domestic pork for a really sweet twist. And I do mean sweet. Wild boar meat has a certain sweetness to it that has somehow become absent in domestic pork. But, this recipe works equally well using all pork shoulder.
You can mix any spices that you like into sausage. The traditional seasonings are sage, salt, pepper, and a bit of brown sugar. The sugar promotes nice browning as well as a hint of sweetness. But I also played around with cayenne and crushed red pepper, chopped dried cherries and rosemary, marjoram and thyme, and several other variations. The first time you make it, consider splitting the pork into 4 portions once it has been thoroughly processed and ground in your food processor. Then you can experiment with mixing different seasonings into each batch until you find the combination that works for you. Mix in the seasonings, beginning with a light hand. Keep a skillet handy and toss in a tiny blob of your seasoned sausage, cook it, and sample it. Add a little more seasoning if needed. Or adjust or add something else. This freezes like a charm so you can just take your seasoned meat and roll it up in a tube shape using plastic wrap, and then wrap it in foil and freeze it inside of another (well labelled) resealable plastic bag. You will have fresh homemade patty sausage for breakfast, or wonderful sausage to crumble and add to dressing or a dinner omelet.


text: Having a few sips of water will NOT kill your baby - despite what the scary headlines say Baby news Last updated: Thu 04 January 2018 at 09:00 0 In case you've read the shocking headlines about how you should never give your baby water, MFM sets the record straight Here at MFM HQ, we're well used to seeing scary headlines that we know will freak mums out – and are often only half the truth. There was the story about how taking paracetamol when pregnant could make your kids hyperactive. Oh, and remember the one that linked folic acid with autism? And it's happened again. This is a story from 2016 which has resurfaced – about how you should NEVER give your baby water. It's been picked up by several newspapers, and figured we really needed to set the record straight. So what's all the fuss about? A dietician from Mayo Clinic in Arizona, USA, has been quoted by Buzzfeed as saying that "babies don't need water... at all", that they shouldn't drink water before 6 months and that it "is possible for a baby to die drinking too much water" under the scary headline "This Is Why You Should Never Give Your Baby Water". Buzzfeed originally ran the story in 2016, along with the pic above (these quotes are from forum users, NOT experts btw) and then the Mirror picked it up, heading their story (even more frighteningly): "Why you should NEVER feed your baby water – and how it could be fatal if you do". For some reason, the story has resurfaced - and probably not for the only time. So, wait: water can KILL your baby? The team here were a bit alarmed when we saw this story – mainly because of the way it's been packaged rather than what it's saying. We reckon it makes it sound as though water in itself can kill your baby – which it can't (unless you do something completely crazy like force your baby to drink pints of it). What is potentially dangerous here is giving your small baby water INSTEAD of a regular milk feed – because then you're filling your baby up with fluid but not giving them anything nutritious. And by small baby, we're talking a baby under 6 months – not just any child under a year old. What do our experts say? We got in touch with midwife Anne Richley, one of our regular experts, who brought some much-needed calm and assurance to the situation. She agreed that babies under the age of 6 months shouldn't need additional water (unless advised by a healthcare professional) because "giving babies water can fill them up when they still need the nutritional benefits of milk". But then she put the whole thing into non-fear mode quite beautifully. "Mums shouldn't panic if they've given their baby a few sips of water. This needs to be kept in perspective. "We're really only talking about water being life-threatening when given in excess. And an excess of anything can be dangerous for adults, children or babies." That said, says Anne, it's worth remembering that a baby under 6 months only needs milk. If you're breastfeeding, your milk will automatically adjust itself – become more or less watery – to stop your baby getting thirsty, even in very hot weather. If you're formula-feeding, though, and your baby seems thirsty, Anne says, "it's fine to give them an additional bottle of milk. If they don't want it, they won't take it." Professional Policy Advisor Janet Fyle from the Royal College of Midwives agrees that healthy babies under 6 months shouldn't need water – and in an instance of dehydration, she says, you should see your doctor. Which we totally get. So, in essence – while the original advice wasn't wrong – Buzzfeed, tabloids et al: any chance you could be a bit more responsible with how you head up your parenting wisdom next time? 😡 Read more Why you shouldn't stop taking folic acid despite the headlines No truth in fake tan pregnancy scare story Binge-drinking in pregnancy - what's the deal?

If you are looking for a good basic phone with decent features, the Sprint LG LX290 is it and it even has a camera and bluetooth, Text friendly and make a call friendly, great volume, great reception. If you want to go on the internet get a computer, and if music is your thing get an Ipod. Only problem I have with it is the when texting the font is very small, it's to be very annoying for texting. Even set to a large font it is still to small. Not much difference between small and large fonts. With the size of the screen I don't understand why the font is so small. I have to get my reading glasses out everytime I get a call or text message. LG Cell Phone Reviews

Plainview's own joins hogging crew
Published 10:11 am, Sunday, October 20, 2013
Coined as "America's favorite hog-hunting family," television's Campbell family will be bringing some true Plainview Grit to the fourth season of "American Hoggers" as the A&E show will be bringing on new recruit and former Plainview resident Katie Ball to the hunting business.
"She looks like she's willing to learn," said hunting expert Robert Campbell during the show's promos to the new season set to air on A&E Tuesday, Oct. 22 at 9 p.m.
For those new to the show, "American Hoggers" chronicles the life of Jerry Campbell and his family as they struggle to maintain the explosive feral hog population in Brown County and the surrounding area near Austin.
With aggressive, destructive feeding habits and the potential to spread disease, show stars enter dangerous grounds as they try to protect humans and livestock.
The show revolves around 40-year hunting veteran Jerry Campbell and his attempts pass down his wisdom to the rest in the family business, while still competing with rival hoggers.
But in true television form, drama has split the family in season three, and Jerry Campbell has incorporated the help of 24-year-old Ball, who works as a bar manager at Brownwood Country Club.
"If she's strong enough to work at a bar in Central Texas; she's strong enough to become a hog hunter," said Jerry Campbell in a sneak peak video clip of the premiere show entitled "The Recruit."
Although, Ball said she couldn't comment about the show until it was cleared with A&E producers, Ball's resume of toughness and intelligence was built right in Plainview, as the daughter of Jack and Nila Ball excelled at Plainview High School and while she attended Wayland Baptist University.
As a senior at PHS, Ball was a varsity cheerleader, a three-year state powerlifter, and a member of National Technical Honor Society,a FCCLA representative, TAFE and a four-year member of FEA. Ball was also active in St. Alice Catholic Church CYO and volunteered with the Rainbow Room.
Ball has also participated in fitness modeling competitions.
In her official television bio, Ball is described as a first-time hog wrangler but "she's not afraid of the challenge. Her spitfire attitude is matched by her physical ability.
But American will soon find out if Hogging will be Ball's new career path as she learns the ropes and tries to dodge the drama in the next ten episodes of season four.

I disagree. It was groundbreaking in several ways, like having an enormous cast that plumbed the depths of Spidey's supporting cast and rogue's gallery (true, the 90's show did it first, but Spec took it further). And by having every single character be someone from the comics. And by making Gwen Stacy a main character. And by having the series play out over a clearly defined and specific time frame. And the show also upped the ante with the action scenes, which helped make way for Avengers:EMH to take it even further.
Thought-provoking is a little harder to nail down, but for my part I never thought much about how Venom's monster-mouth works before (I've decided it's an optical illusion). I never thought about how Aunt May pays the bills (probably social security, for starters.) I liked how each of Peter's classmates is well-rounded and has a unique relationship with Peter. I liked how he kind of has three father figures (Captain Stacy, Norman Osborn, and Jameson). Maybe it's just me getting older that I'm noticing these things.
And just because the show was packed with action doesn't mean it wasn't deep. To be fair,
didn't think it was deep either at first, but it has the most developed version of Flash, the most developed version of Eddie Brock, and even Jameson has to go through some development before he wants to destroy Spider-Man at all costs (at first he has no interest in him besides publicity). There are lots of moments where Peter is tested as a person, such as when he meets Tombstone and realizes that fighting super-villains isn't making a difference in the long run, or when he realizes his feelings for Gwen, or when he came across Uncle Ben's killer again. And look over Season 2, where they're putting on the play, and see how it's used to frame each episode, especially "Growing Pains" where the auditions subtly comment on the action, or "Opening Night" where the play's dialogue does the same thing. This show may not have been serious all the time, but it had depth to spare.
Okay, rant over. My 2 cents, thanks for your time.
