text: 17 February 2016 - Woman Prosecuted For Attack On Ambulance Crew A woman from Rochdale has been prosecuted after she physically assaulted an ambulance crew from North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) in East Manchester after they had been called out to provide her with emergency medical treatment. The incident occurred in October last year when two members of NWAS staff arrived and assisted the patient, Sarah Bradley, who was apparently intoxicated into the ambulance. She initially was compliant with the clinicians carrying out observations of her condition, however the patient's demeanor suddenly changed and she shoulder barged one of the crew with such force that they fell through the side door of the ambulance. As the crew attempted to calm the patient down she once again charged at the member of staff before turning her attention to the other crew member and kicking them in the face. The crew immediately requested assistance from the police and as they waited Bradley continued to be aggressive towards them and urinated on the ambulance floor. Bradley was arrested and with the full support from the Trust's local and senior management the crew informed the police that they wish to pursue a prosecution against their attacker. The defendant originally pleaded not guilty to the charge but just minutes before the hearing, on 5 February at Bury Magistrates Court, she changed her plea to guilty. She was sentenced to a curfew order between the hours of 7pm to 7am for a twelve week period and required to pay £110 fine. The crew members wish to remain anonymous, but one of them commented: "'I am encouraged that a positive outcome for myself and my colleague was achieved. It is completely unacceptable for any ambulance staff to be subject to abuse when we are there to help people and save lives. I do hope that more of my colleagues can be motivated to defend their rights. "We all have a right to do our job without fear of either physical or verbal abuse. I and my colleague would like to thank everyone involved for their support; from the police, to all NWAS staff involved and the legal personnel that helped to make this possible." Steve Hynes, NWAS Head of Service in Greater Manchester said: "I hope that this case highlights the type of aggression that emergency services staff are all too often subject to. The Trust takes a zero tolerance approach to any form of abuse and we will always support our staff to report any violence or aggression towards them and encourage them to press charges against those perpetrators who cause them harm. "The patient was intoxicated at the time of this incident but this is no excuse. Hopefully by pursuing this prosecution it will make people think twice before they have an inclination to assault or abuse our hardworking staff."

Century Carpet & Creative Floors Offers a Diverse Selection of Fine Carpet that Will Complement and Enhance Any Interior Home Decor
Carpet has been a popular floor covering for centuries. However, today's new carpet choices from well-known manufacturers offer many aesthetic and functional benefits that weren't available until quite recently. These include more types, styles, patterns, textures and colors; dramatically improved stain resistance; health benefits; kid and pet-friendliness and even better foot friendliness.
The Diversity of Carpet
As a homeowner faced with selecting new flooring for a home upgrade, your first concern is likely one of design. Naturally, you want to choose an affordable new floor covering that will enhance your existing décor, or become the centerpiece of the new design scheme that you're planning. The great diversity of the carpet on today's market means you will undoubtedly find what you're looking for at a price you can afford. Other factors that you will consider are based upon 'where' your new floors will be installed; family requirements and more.
There are many carpet characteristics that are best explained to you by one of our flooring consultants while you are actually viewing and touching samples of the carpets that interest you. You can do this in our Ayer, MA showroom, or we can arrange for one of our professionals to bring these samples to your home where you can see them in the rooms where they will be set in place.
When you begin shopping for new carpet, look for carpets that offer exceptional durability such as nylon; have nearly complete stain resistance like StainMaster® and SmartStrand®; and are also soft and luxurious like polyester. If you have small kids and pets at home, try to choose carpets that are pet and kid-friendly. Century Carpet & Creative Floors carries complete selections from well-known manufacturers.
Assess Carpet Quality
When you visit our showroom in Ayer, MA you can see and feel actual samples of the carpets. Bend each carpet sample backward; if you can see the sample's backing easily, you are seeing a low-density, low quality carpet that will be easily crushed. The carpet that you finally select should have the following characteristics:

Maybe it's just me but... I don't like the scene transitions of the movie. Damn too confusing! CG animation is great though. I'd like to answer Trixy's question on why did his cut-off jeans always turn purple no matter what he wore before he transforms into the Hulk --- because green and purple are part of the harmonious secondary colors of the color wheel. They must have thought purple would always look good with green. Hehehe!

By Jane Voigt
January 26, 2013 -- Victoria Azarenka broke down in tears and threw a towel over her head seconds after a cool handshake with a disappointed Li Na at the net.
Azarenka had won her second Australian Open, the first slam of the year, and had retained her #1 ranking, but with controversy and skeptical support from crowds and the media. Her tears had been damned up like water against a dam.
She hung her head as she took a lonely looking walk across Rod Laver Stadium to her box. The trek seemed endless to many ... probably more so to the new champion. However, she was greeted with warmth and fuzzinesses she absolutely needed. Otherwise the girl may have collapsed, prompting yet another medical time out.
"You're a champion, enjoy this one," Sam Sumyk, her coach, told her sincerely.
"We love you," another said, reaching down the high stadium walls as Victoria stretched her fingertips upward to touch her friend's. "You deserve it."
Azarenka took a couple minutes off court to compose herself before awards were presented. By then, Li Na and Vika had relaxed and were laughing merrily with each other. The relief for both must have been extraordinary.
"It's been a real long two weeks for me," Azarenka told the 17,000 seated in the stadium. "But, I will keep it short."
No one needed to hear the details. They had been splashed over local, national and international media for the last two days. But as much as she tried to realign her image during her speech, wishing all a happy Australia Day, she waited until the end to congratulate Li Na.
This final and entire tournament on the women's side, which Azarenka won 46 64 63, raised the level of consciousness of a player's character.
This evening in Melbourne Park they did play their best tennis, we have to believe, although most would agree other finals have been of a higher quality.
In the last 24 of 25 women's singles finals at a major, the woman who won the first set won the bigger trophy. Not today and not in 2006, Steve Tignor tweeted. Li Na won the first set in her loss to Kim Clijsters in 2011. And that's what happened this evening.
There were massive numbers of unforced errors from both, but many more from Li Na: 57 to 28 . And there were 30 breaks of serve between the #1 and #6 seeds. Azarenka broke serve in the first game of all three sets, but never could hold the advantage. Li broke Azarenka three times in the first set, to win it on the third as Azarenka double faulted away the set.
Li was the one, though, that elevated character above tennis. She is the one who blinded the world with bravery and determination, after she not once but twice twisted her left ankle, the second time smacking her head on the court so hard her visor flew off as medics flew to her rescue and attended what could have been a concussion.
But funny Li Na sat up and smiled as the doctor moved her index finger from left to right to watch Li's eyes. Her second medical time out began. 'A legitimate time out,' L. Jon Wertheim tweeted.
Li Na was surprised to have reached the final, or so she said in her award's speech. She was pushed, and "Things not bad. I should shut up."
In her press conference she was asked why she fell down twice. Li said, "because I'm stupid," followed by laughter.
But to have suffered through two ankle bites and a head smack, and take it to three sets against the newly-crowned #1 player in the world and Australian Open champion was a magnificent display of fortitude, adrenalin surges, and hunger for victory.
Li will be 32 next month. She told the press she was happy about her tennis, and mentioned how Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic and herself lost the Australian Open and went on to win Roland Garros in 2011. Her age, though, still provoked a question about retirement.
"When I can't play I will stop," she said. "You never know. When I wake up and I can't move any more I will retire."
You can bet Victoria Azarenka will not contemplate retirement, at the young age of 23. She has proven herself as best in the world, if not the most well liked.
She, too, should be given credit for courage and determination.
Her performance over the two weeks was not first rate yet she played through to her second Slam title. Trying to close out a match against the crowd favorite and a multi-injured comic relief called for a mental toughness the strength of a vault. To have kept composed and swing out took guts.
Like her friends said, "You deserve this."

The assignment is very general: choose a topic of interest within the domain of Human-Computer Interaction and carry out a cohesive, complete project based around it. The range of possible topics that you can choose among is very broad. However, the project you pick should incorporate a design element, a prototyping element, and either an evaluation component or a design for subsequent evaluation. The relative weights between these components is up to you to propose--for example, it is reasonable to design and prototype an interface, with the emphasis being on the "realism" of the prototype. It also is reasonable to try to design a mechanism to choose between two equally-plausible interface choices. Here the emphasis most likely would be on evaluation, with rudimentary implementation. I think the most interesting problems will be ones in which you identify and work with some "client" to develop a solution to one of their problems. Such clients can include organizations with which you are involved, work site, etc. You can propose to carry out a project as part of a larger effort. However the caution here is that you will need to be able to separate out the contribution made by this class' project from the rest.
You may work individually or in teams. A team can be as large as you want it to be, but correspondingly larger results will be expected from larger teams. It seems to me that the most productive teams are usually about two members in size.
All members of a team will receive the same grade for a group project. You will need to prepare a written project proposal, possibly with following discussion with the instructor, a written project checkpoint report, a final report (written), and an oral presentation (in class). All documents generated as part of the project should be turned in on paper and also collected on a Web site.
The following deadlines are relevant.
If you need suggestions on projects, please see me. There may be ideas associated with some ongoing research projects that can be examined.

throwback fairy princesa right there! I fully approve! Lol. And ah, who's your friend/neighbor there huh? haha…
Nurse Bettie's!
Yesterday night I was invited by my friend Ingrid to happy endings for a burlesque show. It is too bad we didn't get to take pics there. I brought my friend Javits with me because it was going to be his birthday come midnight. Javits is my neighbor and is like a brother to me so I wanted to help make this a special birthday by having him come with us. After Happy Endings we went to Nurse Bettie's where we had a few drinks and enjoyed the beautiful pinup art work of the venue. We must have been all over L.E.S that night because after Nurse Bettie's we got so hungry we went to a spanish restaurant in the area. Here are pictures of our night.
Ingrid and I, I love this girl. She is so animated and can dress her ass off!
Javits is camera-shy!
Ingrid looking lovely in front of a Brian Life painting of an Elvgren girl.
I looked like a fairy princess. It was the look I was going for you know.
The artwork at Nurse Bettie's was to die for.
Javits was in love with this red-head.
No peeking through the key hole!
Now we were off to our next adventure, FOOD. We came across this Egyptian statue outside of a restaurant. Loved it.
Ingrid wore a cute vintage dress with a vintage belt and purse. She is always well put when it comes to her outfits.
Even her jean jacket is cute!
I wore a Vintage dress, purse, and cashmere sweater with Tecasan shoes.
Fairy princess outfit accomplished!
Good times!

And what costume shall the poor girl wear...
Last weekend's ATP festival in Minehead had over 40 artists performing. I only managed to catch a fraction of these, so I'll give a quick summary of the highlights. I half-heartedly watched a bit of Giant Sand after we arrived on Friday, but didn't really take much of it in. The first band I watched properly was Throwing Muses, who were the main reason I'd come to the festival. Now a trio with Kristin Hersh joined by Bernard Georges on bass and original drummer David Narcizo, the band have become more frenzied and at times during their performance the boundaries with Kristin's hardcore project 50 Foot Wave became blurred. The first part of the set was drawn mainly from the 2003 self-titled album and the mid-'90s releases "University" and "Limbo". Towards the end, the focus changed and we were treated to some older material such as "Bea" and "Vicky's Box" (the song I had most wanted to hear) before a frantic run through "Mania" closed the set. It seemed to be a cutdown version of the setlist from the video that Kristin recently sent out to fans. I have always preferred this kind of show, where a band doesn't have a new album to promote so they are free to choose material from all of their albums equally. But to be fair, the choice of songs wasn't that important to me; if Kristin had just stood there and read out her shopping list I would still have been entertained. If I have one complaint about the performance, it was a little too loud. At times the subtle aspects of Kristin's guitar playing were lost in the overall volume. This could be because I was standing too close to the speakers at the front; this clip of "Speed and Sleep" was shot by someone standing further back (at one point I think I can see the back of my head) and the sound is reasonably clear:
It's interesting to see the rapt expressions on the band members' faces in that clip. All three of them are locked into their own playing, yet they still manage to work together coherently. The problem with having Throwing Muses play so early in the weekend was that everything else was something of an anticlimax. It's a pity that Kristin didn't play a solo set as well, but then she is a working mum so I guess we shouldn't demand too much from her.
I didn't see much else of note on Friday, although I did quite enjoy Bon Iver's set. I'd written their album off as being pleasant but not as good as everyone has made it out to be, but I may revisit it in the light of this performance.
Saturday's proceedings kicked off with Wire. I wasn't sure what to expect, having been disappointed with their last album, but I needn't have worried, as even the songs from "Object 47" sounded more ferocious than anything else I heard all weekend. This suggests that it's the production that is to blame for the lacklustre sound of that album, rather than the songs. It still seems odd to see Wire without Bruce Gilbert, but Margaret Fiedler now looks more comfortable in her role and for the first time I thought of her as part of the band rather than just a stand-in. Colin Newman was more animated than ever and his refusal to act his age should be an inspiration to many of the younger performers on the bill. The setlist was similar to the Manchester show I reviewed this time last year, with the better tracks from "Send"/"Read and Burn" mixed up with classics such as "Pink Flag" and "12XU". I was pleased to hear a couple of songs that weren't played in Manchester, namely "Underwater Experiences" and "Silk Skin Paws". Despite my reservations, Wire turned out to be one of the highlights of the festival.
Teenage Fanclub, immediately afterwards, provided the perfect contrast to Wire's intensity, playing probably the most mellow set of the day. It's been years since I last listened to TFC, and I wasn't even sure if they still existed. It was great to hear "Starsign", "The Concept" and "Sparky's Dream" again, and there were two or three new songs which suggested that their forthcoming album will be an essential purchase for anyone who remembers them at their early '90s peak.
I think The Breeders have been getting more credit for the diversity of acts that they invited to play, rather than their own set. As with several other bands I saw, it was more the nostalgia that made it enjoyable than their musical skill or stage presence. They played nearly all of "Last Splash", four or five songs from "Pod", an Amps song, and I'm not sure what else as I've not really kept up with their recent releases. I think this was true of a lot of people in the crowd, given the more enthusiastic response to the older numbers. I was pleased to see that the Deal twins have considerately adopted different hairstyles to help me tell them apart.
The non-musical highlight of the day (which won't mean anything to readers who are not familiar with the occupants of my chalet) occurred during The Breeders' set, when Simon met his doppelgänger. For those of you who know him, see if you can spot the real Fox in this picture:
I didn't get to see Tricky, as his set clashed with The Breeders, and I'm sorry to have missed him, from the reports that I've heard from others. However, I did see him wandering around the site looking menacing several times during the weekend, and apparently he was picking fights with people at random. At one point security had a polite word with him, but I don't know why they didn't eject him from the premises, as they surely would have done if a member of the public had acted like this. It's a shame that he has to let the aggressive elements of his music spill over into his offstage persona, as his behaviour was completely at odds with the overall atmosphere of the weekend.
I was expecting Melt Banana on Sunday to be a bit too much to cope with, but I was surprised to find that their set was very entertaining. They took to the stage in darkness and shone torches into the crowd before finally revealing their faces. I have no idea if they were singing in Japanese or English, or if their high-pitched shrieking was even meant to mean anything. They included a cover of The Specials' "Monkey Man", which I probably wouldn't have recognised if someone hadn't pointed out to me what it was, and they leapt around the stage like demented children. I had imagined that they would use a drum machine, so I was impressed to find that they had a live drummer who could play that fast without his limbs falling off. However, they did eventually start to hurt my ears so I skipped the last couple of songs to go downstairs and check out Deerhunter. Their set had a few interesting moments, but was not as good as I had expected. Their material, particularly the long, repetitive numbers, would probably work better in an enclosed space and the sound just seemed to drift away into nothingness in the vast openness of the Pavilion. The most memorable part was when they were joined by Kim and Kelley Deal for yet another Amps song.
Gang Of Four were another band that I had decided in advance would be one of the highlights, and I guess they still were, despite not sounding quite how I'd expected. They were a lot rougher around the edges than the last time I saw them, with Jon King's voice in particular sounding very raw. From the way he was throwing himself around the stage, I suspect he'd had a drink or two before the start of their set. One of the more bizarre sights of the weekend occurred during "He'd Send In The Army", with King rhythmically beating a microwave with a baseball bat.
It's really the basslines, rather than King's voice, that define Gang Of Four's sound. I don't know what's happened to original bassist Dave Allen (I'm sure he was there for the reunion shows in 2004-5) or who the new guy is, but he did a reasonable job of reproducing Allen's trademark sound. The main problem with him is his rock star posturing. At times his mannerisms reminded me of Peter Hook, although he wasn't holding his bass quite so far down his body. Hooky could get away with it as it always seemed he was being ironic, but with this bloke it just looks a bit cheesy. Despite the sound not being quite as "angular" (what does that actually mean?) as usual, you couldn't really fault the setlist - "At Home He's A Tourist", "Anthrax", "We Live As We Dream, Alone", "Damaged Goods", "What We All Want", "I Love A Man In Uniform" etc. - and it's easy to see why their back catalogue has been mercilessly raided by the likes of Franz Ferdinand.
I've never really bothered with Shellac before. I remember listening to one of their albums many years ago, deciding it wasn't as interesting as Steve Albini's previous band, Big Black, and then forgetting about them. I didn't need to watch much of their performance at ATP before I realised I'd been missing out. The sound was slow and crushing, and at times reminded me of the early works of Swans or Sonic Youth. Two long-haired types standing near me were headbanging in slow motion, either unaware of or not caring how ridiculous they looked. The standout song was called, I think, "The End Of Radio" and featured bassist Bob Weston repeatedly playing a single note while Albini menacingly intoned lyrics that had been lifted directly from Jonathan Richman's "Roadrunner". The result was how I imagine Richman's single would sound if you played it at 33rpm. Despite the foreboding nature of the music, Steve Albini is an engaging frontman and there were many humorous moments in the show. The band ran around the stage pretending to be aeroplanes, and the set finished with Steve and Bob dismantling Todd Trainer's drumkit while he was still attempting to play it, before carrying off Todd himself. Shellac were the perfect way to end the weekend, and the only act I saw who inspired me to check out music that I don't already own.

that microwave's miked up lol - and OMG you're dead right about the bassist - see what u saying about the bass sound, but i always thought that choppy guitar was their tag - oh, and i always saw gang of four as quintessentially british, and new bassman seems to miss this by a rawk mile! love Jon King's jacket, though...
Looks like it was a great weekend! :-)

The Throwing Muses sound was much better further back. We originally stood by you, in direct line with Kristen's amp, which pretty much obliterated everything else. That's why me and Ben moved back - but then of course, we didn't get to see as much...
Not only was Gang of Four's microwave mic'ed up, it was switched on, and sparks were coming out as he hit it! Seen them do this before, and it's amusing, but I'm not quite sure of the point. Must cost them a fortune if they do this at every gig.

Rebellious, always an entertaining read. Keep up the good work old chap. Wish I had been there, sounds like an interesting event.

This is something I just wrote, something I just experienced. I want to share it with you in the hope it might help someone, and also to testify of god's goodness and faithfulness. If it wasn't 4:41 am at the moment I think I would be singing right now, I feel so grateful and joyous.
I hope you like the poem. god bless you.
The darkness was thick around me,
No ray of light to be found.
Deeper I sank into misery,
Despair and shame did abound.
Feeling battered and bloody from battles i faced,
Feeling helpless and hopeless and weak,
I cried out to god with all of my heart ,
"One thing alone do I seek.
"I'm tired of fighting myself and you,
I long for the trouble to cease.
But one thing dear Lord that I desperately need,
Let me again feel your peace."
a soft gentle glow seemed to brighten the darkness;
A loving hand lifted me up
Washed me anew from the sin and the shame
and wrapped me in a blanket of love.
Peace gently fell on my aching heart
As sweet as the morning dew;
I felt free for the first time in a very long time,
And all I could say was "thank you!"
One single cry from the depths of my darkness
Then came my saviour and friend
An ever-present help in difficult times,
To heal and restore me again.
What gratitude now fills my heart!
O Jesus my words can't express,
When I needed you, you came quickly to me.
When I called, your answer was yes!
why is it we don't think to pray?
We just flounder around on our own;
But god is so willing to help us
So we don't need to struggle alone.
If we ask in the name of Jesus
And believe that our prayer will be heard,
God is faithful, loving and kind,
he will do all he said in his word.
so don't give up believing
that god will answer your prayer,
He may not always act in a moment,
But at the right time his help will be there.
A place for me to put my Christian poems, devotionals, messages and other stuff. I'm just a Christian wanting to share what I'm learning with others on the journey.

Poem: One Prayer

In times of change it becomes important to be able to take decisions based on incomplete information and without knowing how things are going to turn out. This prevents us from getting stuck and brings us more energy to move forward.
On top of the techniques of Chapters 1-3, Chapter 4 brings us four more approaches for choosing the best direction to move forward in. The first of these is to learn from people you admire. It comes in three stages.
Stage One is to choose between one and three people you have never met but whom you admire greatly: role models who taught you something important even though you never met them. They might still be alive or they could be people from the past.
For each one, write down or (better) discuss with a close friend or partner:
- Who do you admire?
- What are the values you admire in them?
- What flaws or weaknesses did or do they have?
- What, despite those flaws, did they manage to achieve that you admire them for?
Discussing this with someone you trust will enable them to ask you open questions (such as, "Why? What do you mean by that? Can you give me an example?") that help you draw out and uncover what is most important to you.
For Stage Two, choose between one and three mentors, friends, leaders, teachers, or managers whom you have known in real life and who have taught you something that helped to shape the person you have become.
Again, either write down or discuss with a close friend or partner:
- Who is the person?
- What did he or she love that you loved them for loving?
- What were their flaws or weaknesses?
- What, despite those flaws, did they managed to achieve that you admire them for?
When you have completed these two stages, review your answers:
- Reminding yourself of the qualities and achievements you admire in others will help you to choose a way forward for yourself.
- Most importantly, it also reminds us that even the people we most admire have flaws. And despite those flaws, they still managed to achieve something worthwhile. If they can then so can we.
Would you like to improve your ability to take decisions based on incomplete information and without knowing how things are going to turn out? Discuss your answers to these questions with a friend.

So this post is not happy, or sad persay, nor do I need/want sympathy, just venting and processing through things...
I wonder what it would be like to be a normal, healthy 30 year old. To be able to get out of bed in the morning without having to psych yourself up mentally and physically. To be able to carry your child up and down the stairs without fear of falling, and without agonizing pain. To be able to dress and bathe your child without tears of pain rolling down your cheeks. To eat a normal breakfast and not have to count calories. I wonder what that would be like?
I wonder what it would be like to not have constant pain that no one can see or understand? I wonder what a day without physical pain is like? I wonder what I could get done without it? I wonder what I could do with my body/health/life if I didn't hurt all the time?
I wonder what it is like to be thin....not stick/anorexic thin, but healthy thin. (I think kate winslet here) I wonder what it would be like if I hadn't grown up heavy and I wonder what it's like not to be called tubo, fat a**, whale, made mooing sounds at, etc. I wonder what its like to walk into a normal store and know that you could find anything you wanted and it would fit you (you may not like it, but it could fit) I wonder what's it like not to have to shop at speciality stores. I wonder what its like to go on an airplane or amusement park ride and not be TERRIFIED that you won't fit. To not have to ask for a seat belt expander.
To have people see the REAL YOU and not the fat, pain filled you that you've become. I wonder what it's like to be able to do things...to have friends to hang out with, play dates, etc. I wonder what my life would be like if I was healthier, and not in constant pain. I wonder if this road to losing weight is taking me where I need/want/can go. I have high hopes that losing the weight will take the pain away a little....and I am frightened it won't. I wonder, just once, if anyone could possibly understand my life....and all I've been through.
BUT, then I wonder if the things I have/do/say/have had done to me make me who I am...the part of who I am that I like? The part of me that lets me be a mom and be home with my daughter (despite the pain and hardness of it). I wonder if being bullied/made fun of has made me more empathetic and compassionate. I wonder if being dissed and ditched has made me a better friend. And if going without has led me to serve others anyway I can. I wonder...

Weigh in week 4
I started this get fit challenge on top of weight watchers on Jan 2nd. I have lost a total of 5.2 lbs this month. And a full inch off my hips and a full inch off my waist. I know it seems small, but I feel good about it. I probably could have lost a little more, been a little more strict, but I feel like 1 lb/week is pretty decent and doable which is most important. And I am thrilled about the inches. I also decreased my BMI by .8. Not a lot, but its moving down too. I also lost a full pants size this month. So the changes are coming...slow but sure.
Hope everyone is well

The unavoidable gain
Well weigh in was yesterday, and as I thought I gained...BUT only 1/2 a lb. I feel like a broken record (but I type it/say it so Ill believe it) But considering I was up almost 5 lbs ill take a 1/2 lb gain. Am I happy? NO! But so far this week I am 100% on plan and feeling pretty good (other than lack of sleep and sore) The eating is going well and I feel back on track. So as one other blogger has said "Im not going to dwell because I can't change it now".
New week...next week Ill have a loss to report for sure!!

Why is it so hard?
Sometimes I just wish things were easy. I know, I know... I wouldn't learn, grow, be me, etc. I know this. But still can't something just be easy. I mean it's easy to gain weight (as evidenced by my almost 5 lb weight gain over the 4 days I was stranded in Wendover with only restaurant food to eat) Yeah...that's like 1 full lb a day! Why? It takes me 2-3 weeks to LOSE that SAME AMOUNT! GRRRRR! Sometimes I just get so frustrated.
I look around and see the success stories, but I also look around and see SO many that aren't...and I don't mean those who gained back 10 lbs or those who gained a little back but are losing it again. I mean the people who lost 50-100 lbs and gained it all back and are just content to have gained it back. Or people like my mom who have had not 1 but 2 gastric bypass type surgeries and is still overweight, maybe even obese according to BMI. or the people from the biggest loser who have gained it all back, or most of it. I know a lot don't...but sometimes its just hard.
I know I am just in a funk. I am not 100% sure why. I guess because I held onto this hope that as I lost weight my health would improve overnight (easy). But it hasn't(hard) I still have diabetes and still take pills and insulin. I still hurt daily from fibromyalgia and have a hard time doing things that most people find normal (showering, dressing, cleaning, cooking, playing with my daughter) I feel SO much guilt and self hate that I can't magically and easily fix this. I am in a funk of "what's the point" and I know the answers, I really do. But for today its hard and for today I am acknowledging it is hard. But that's all...I am back on the wagon. I am moving forward and even if it takes me 2-3 weeks to lose that almost 5 lbs I WILL LOSE IT and more. I know I can do it, but somehow writing how I "feel" helps.
hope everyone else is doing better.

Goal #1 down...and getting back on track, yes again.
Monday was my weigh in and since I adjusted my goals to reflect the new weigh in day...I was supposed to weigh in at 286.6 or less (for a total of 35 lbs lost) Well I weighed in at 285.8. So, i made my goal.
BUT, then hubby and I decided to do an overnight trip to wendover...we had free food and free room, no biggie right? Well, our started on our car died while we were there...so I ended up having to eat out sunday, monday and tuesday and didn't get home until tuesday night, and spent over 400 to fix the car. Sigh. Now I am having trouble refocusing and getting back on track. Its amazing how fast eating out can affect your weight. I am sure I have gained. And it makes me depressed. Plus I hurt so I just want to veg and eat. I know this gets me no where, so I am trying very very hard to pull myself up and get back on track. Wish me luck

Who does that?
Today I was finally feeling a teeny tiny bit less sore since hurting my shoulder, so I ran a couple errands. I forgot to bring snacks. I brought water, but was SO hungry by the time I was in the middle of my errands not to mention an almost 16 month old starving too. So I decided to grab a subway salad on my way home. (good choice right?) well sara can't really eat that and she was having a MAJOR melt down. So I drove across the street and bought her chik-fil-a nuggets. I bought 8. Who in their rational mind thinks a 16 month old can eat 8 nuggets? Yeah...needless to say I ended up eating 4 of them, 2 1/2 are still in the box and her high chair. I mean it wasnt the end of the world to eat them, and I didn't eat them all...but man it was a slip up. The smell was intoxicating. But I learned my lesson. Make sure I have stuff to snack on in my car...ie: granola bars, almonds, etc.

first weigh in of 12 week challenge
I lost 2 lbs (actually it was 2.6, but only get credit for 2 lbs) MY first goal of the year is to be down a total of 35 lbs by Thursday (which were made when I was weighing in on Thursdays) so I tweaked it to be Mondays instead. Since I am down 34.8 so far I can easily hit the 35 by next monday. And hopefully start full swing on my way to losing 50lbs.
I am super sore. Tearing ligaments and tendons in your shoulder HURTS! I made my hubby pull out the WII fit board from storage because I can still step and do some of the wii fit stuff with my arm, but Im going to skip aqua aerobics this week to heal a little then get back in it next week.
Have a healthy week all!

Just keep swimming
Weigh in day today (the last thursday it will be thursday, from here on out it will be mondays (at least for 12 weeks) down 1.6 lbs. So dropped the .8 I gained and then a little. Ill take it. I haven't had any treats/sugar since Sunday and actually feel good. And I am not craving it like usual. MY guess is that once I eat sugar I want it...and if I don't eat it I am ok with out it.
I did aqua aerobics last night and then went back this morning. I am in love! It doesn't hurt. Its actually pretty fun, and suprisingly I like being the "young one" and I love the older crowd. They are pretty fun! I don't feel sore. But I can feel my muscles and know I got a work out in. Both classes have been a full hour, and I have NEVER EVER exercised in any way, shape or form for a full hour, so I am feeling pretty proud. :)
Hope everyone has a great week!

Get Fit Challenge
So as of yesterday I am "officially" back on track. I joined a get fit challenge to help me along too. Its 12 weeks and you get points each day for doing things healthy (ie: not eating after 9, no sweets, 48 oz of water, 5 fruits and vegetables, work out 5 days a week for 30 minutes, etc) Most of them are pretty easy for me, but there are 3 that are SUPER hard and it will be interesting to see how I do. 1. no sweets. (you can have 1 treat a day and still get points, but only half pts, and you do get 1 day you can "cheat") but I CRAVE sweets. Mainly if I eat sweets I want more. But its so hard just to not eat them...especially when my nephew and brother in law eat them all the time, or want to. 2. exercise 30 minutes 5 days a week. For me its more motivation and pain. Im not super motivated to go do that because 99% of the time it just hurts. I went to the gym yesterday with the intent to swim, but the pool was full so I rode a bike for 9 miles...which is a lot for me. But my back is in AGONY today. Not like a "oh i worked out and am sore" kind of pain but the "I may die, what did I do to myself pain". I know its fibromyalgia pain and I know that because i have it everyday, but when I do something too much it gets worse. SO today I am trying to decide if its worth trying something again or not. Sigh. Decisions decisions. and finally 3. 5 fruits and vegetables a day. This didn't sound so hard at first but man it is. Especially when theres very few fruits and vegetables I actually like. But yesterday and today I have done everything on the list. So we will see how it continues today and onward. I just gotta get this all worked out. The yo-yoing thing is NO fun.

Abstract Waterscapes
"Images from nature and its patterns, repeated, reveal the aesthetics of how nature draws its self. Vision is as individual as the viewer. Time and again many faceted images appear in religious artwork from the far east. Repeaters and mirror images, reveal some of the secrets of how we see, and dream. "

text: Anger The definition of anger is, a feeling of displeasure, hostility or exasperation toward someone or something. Anger is also when you feel lonely or in certain situations you feel depressed. There are many results that go with anger one of them is negative by throwing things, by yelling at things or people and also taking it out on yourself by hitting or punching yourself. Anger can also lead to crime, abuse or more violent behaviors such as wrecking something of someone else's. Anger also has positive affects like if your in a basketball game and you get angry at someone you might play harder and win the game. Anger can help you reach your goals, handle emergencies, solve problems and protect your health and yourself. There are five different ways to deal with anger they are competing, collaborating, compromising, avoiding and accommodating. Competing is when you only blame the other person or thing you are angry at. When you try to start a fight. Collaborating is when you blame you self by saying " it's ok it is all my fault" when it is the other persons fault. Compromising going half and half with someone saying yes that part is your fault but this other part is my fault. Avoiding is where you try to stay away from the problem and act like it never happened. Accommodate is to change yourself so the problem is resolved. I learned my style competing by my dad. I think that because when we get mad we do the same thing. Like if my computer won't do what I want it to do I take it out on the computer and anyone that is around me. By yelling or just not talking to any one. My mom always says you act just like your dad when you get angry. I have always been this way. That is why I swim I like to compete with people till I get my way or win the battle. When my dad was in high school he was a wrestler and that is a very competitive sport also. Anger is an important issue at home because I think that when one person gets mad that it makes some families pull closer because everyone wants to know what is wrong, that gets more families to talk. Anger is also important to talk to someone weather it is someone at home, school or at work because you need to talk to someone about why you are angry or you could commit suicide or hurt your self very badly. You will always talk to someone about it because you can't always keep it in you. I think that anger dose effect the climate at MTHS because when there is a fight them people act more violent I think. When someone at our school is angry at someone then they get other people mad at that person to even if they don't know them it's just because they mad your friend mad that you will start to hate the person that got your friend mad. Also when someone gets mad and starts to yell at a teacher we all in that class suffer from it we now have the teacher mad. Anger effect the work place by the same way it effects the school one person gets mad and that makes everyone around you in a bad mood also. Anger can make you not do quality work since you are sow mad that you just sit there or you do poor work because you are thinking about something else. Anger can bring on many health issues like you can hurt you self when you get angry. You could commit suicide or try to kill someone else. Anger can cause you to get migraine headaches, severe gastrointestinal symptoms, hypertension, and coronary artery disease. You could also think that drugs or drinking can help you solve your problems and they could cause many more health problems such as over dosing. Rage is when you take out anger in a violent way weather it is beating someone or just messing something up of someone's. You can get rage from being angry at some one or something. Things that make me angry are when you are in a class to learn and you get immature kids in that class and you never get anything done because they ask stupid questions that never get any where with them. I also get angry when my sister wares my clothes its not like she doesn't have any clothes. I get angry when people just stand in the halls and talk when people are trying to get to class and they act like they don't see them. And when people walk one mile an hour in the halls and make a big line behind them when there are 2000 kids in the school with five minute passing periods, sorry but all of us don't like to be late to class. I deal with anger most of the time by avoiding the problem but if I get really mad about it like when people are just standing in the hall or walking really slow, I start to say things like " can't we walk any faster" or " ok we all just stand in the middle of the halls and never go to class on time". Then when they walk slow in the halls it makes me late to class and I get in trouble and my grade goes down because my teacher thinks I'm in the hall talking. When my sister takes my close I always yell at her then we get in a big fight and try to beat each other up till one of us starts to cry. That never helps bec

If the papers are to be believed today, Newcastle want to sign Tom Ince of Blackpool in January, because he will become a free agent next summer and could be brought to Newcastle for a fee of around £4M in January, and Newcastle also want to bring Wilfried Zaha of Manchester United on loan in January.
Wilfried Zaha – former target wants to come to Newcastle
That's if the papers are accurate, and we'd be surprised if Newcastle want both players.
And it seems odd that we are going after two wingers, which is hardly a weakness in the Newcastle side at the moment, and we'd be a lot happier if Newcastle were looking at a few defenders.
Zaha cost the Red Devils £15M from Crystal Palace in January, but Zaha stayed playing for Palace, who then the newly promoted London club wanted to take him on loan this season, but that didn't work out.
The England U21 winger played in the Charity Shield, but that's his only appearance for the Manchester first team this season, and he needs first team football to improve, just like our own youngsters do.
Newcastle have a huge advantage over Stoke, Southampton and Fulham, who are also willing to take the lad on loan, because Newcastle is his preferred choice.
A source to the Daily Star said this:
"The prospect of playing at Newcastle is the preferred one at present but it depends on United allowing a loan move to happen."
So this isn't a new story. but it puts Newcastle in a strange position because Zaha will need games – and that will almost definitely be a part of any loan deal – so our own youngsters will be pushed further down the pecking order.
It doesn't seem like Newcastle have too much confidence in their younger players at the moment, and presumably they will be moved out on loan to lower league clubs.
What do you think?
Comments welcome.

Ed, I actually think the papers don't know anything of value mate 😉
…don't pay attention to them; they are just attention seekers!
Anyway we may or may not have enough wingers depending on how you would describe a winger? It also depends on how you see us playing.
Personally I could find a fee players at our club that play in that position I would move on so both players are welcome 😉
Sharp…I don't see Benny being on his way out, but if a new deal is not agreed soon who knows?
…and with the way we are playing and certain players wanting to go to the World Cup, I think we might have problems retaining the service of some players!
It is really heartbreaking watching us play at the moment (have actuaally missed most of our games this season or great part of it) Have been watching Swansea mostly this season!
Come now, common sense would dictate that ANY club would have a number of 'interests' that are monitored over time. That doesn't mean we are going to bid for every one.
I expect we may bid for Ince or Zaha in Jan IF the conditions are right (price, willingness if player) and IF they would be the biggest benefit to the club at that time.
i carnt speak for other old time bloggers but i stopped posting due to not being able to have a normal debate without it leading onto subjects that have been covered a million times.
on this subject however ! zaha and ince would be awsome and give us a headache and half in quality and may actually give me something to watch the england international team for again 🙂 i really hope we do sign atlest 1
I would love Sammy Ameobi to fill his potential – he seems to be part of the England set up, so they see something in him too.
I just worry about his frame, he seems quite tall & thin, which makes him quite a leggy player. I do not know many wingers that have a frame like that, his thin frame and unorthodox style also reminds me of the younger Shola Ameobi. Shola was similar, but seemed to bulk out in his mid 20s, is that going to happen to Sammy too? I am worried that Sammy is not physically matched to be playing as a wide attacking player – normally players in that role have a lower centre of gravity, an acceleration of pace and run with the ball tight to their feet.
It may be unfair to compare to Sammy to Shola, but we will see. He has potential, so it goes without saying he gets our support.

Epidemiology Kept Simple: An Introduction to Traditional and Modern Epidemiology 3rd Editionby B. Burt Gerstman (Author)
Epidemiology Kept Simple introduces the epidemiological principles and methods that are increasingly important in the practice of medicine and public health. With minimum use of technical language it fully explains terminology, concepts, and techniques associated with traditional and modern epidemiology. Topics include disease causality, epidemiologic measures, descriptive epidemiology, study design, clinical and primary prevention trials, observational cohort studies, case-control studies, and the consideration of random and systematic error in studies of causal factors. Chapters on the infectious disease process, outbreak investigation, and screening for disease are also included. The latter chapters introduce more advanced biostatistical and epidemiologic techniques, such as survival analysis, Mantel-Haenszel techniques, and tests for interaction.
This third edition addresses all the requirements of the American Schools of Public Health (ASPH) Epidemiological Competencies, and provides enhanced clarity and
readability on this difficult subject. Updated with new practical exercises, case studies and real world examples, this title helps you develop the necessary tools to interpret epidemiological data and prepare for board exams, and now also includes review questions at the end of each chapter.
Epidemiology Kept Simple continues to provide an introductory guide to the use of epidemiological methods for graduate and undergraduate students studying public health, health education and nursing, and for all practicing health professionals seeking professional development.

Vaginal Rejuvenation or Vaginoplasty surgery is a cosmetic surgery for both the vaginal canal and the tissues of its mucous membrane that tightens. The procedure strengthens those muscles and tissues while removing excess or damaged lining of the canal. It is specifically designed to strengthen and enhance the working of the vulva-vaginal body structures.
Vaginal rejuvenation usually combines Vaginoplasty (tightening of the vagina) and Labiaplasty or valvoplasty (reshaping the outer and inner lips of the vagina). It has become an increasingly popular option for women. For individuals who desire to recontour after childbirth, significant weight loss, aging or injury to genital structures. Vaginal rejuvenation offers increased self-confidence and comfort.
When to Consider Vaginal Rejuvenation
- When the contours of your vaginal structures have altered and stretched over time.
- If you experience soreness or pain with sexual activity, bicycle riding or horseback riding.
- If the effects of multiple vaginal deliveries have led to reduced sensation during intercourse.
In general cost of surgery varies from $1500 to $5000 depending on other factors and one geographic area to another.
Types of Vaginoplasty surgery
Medical Purposes: – Vaginal surgery is designed for reconstruction of the vagina. Means to repair birth defects. Certain conditions such as:
- Müllerrian agenesis or aplasia
- Vaginal agenesis
- Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Reconstructive surgery repair and correct vagina functional problems. So that young ladies could grow up with the ability to urinate normally, have a menstrual cycle and engage in sexual intercourse as an adult.
Cosmetic/Aesthetic Purposes: – This procedure is designed specifically to tighten up the canal that has become loose or slackened either from age or from the effects of childbirth; sometimes from both.
Vaginal tightening surgery essentially is a procedure to change the aesthetics of normal anatomy to reshape it in order to make you feel better and happier about your own body. It can even improve your sexual sensitivity

I've lived in Blofield since 1998 when my work with the Inland Revenue brought me to Norwich. We were looking for a home with a garden, in a village, close to Norwich, within the catchment areas of good schools, and with easy access to the A47, A11 and the London train; Blofield ticked all the boxes and we were very pleased to move here.
After retiring in 2011 I joined the Parish Council in response to an advert looking to fill vacancies and I've been the chairman for the last 18 months.
Planning issues have dominated the agenda for most of the time; we have an opportunity to comment on applications and we try to do so from the perspective of what is best for the parish – but we don't make the decisions.
We now have a Neighbourhood Plan in place and that will help the council when it comments on proposed developments and as it plans how to improve the facilities within the parish.
Being involved can be frustrating but it is rewarding.
