'Real Housewife of New York City' Bethenny Frankel Talks Shopping
Like most new moms, "Real Housewife of New York City" Bethenny Frankel has trouble getting out of her pajamas some days. At a recent breakfast hosted by Drugstore.com, she explained the alliance between herself and the website:
"I don't like transacting with other people," she said. "I don't want to leave the house. I like to look at all the prices and make sure I'm getting the best deal. Unless I have to come somewhere and be a person, I'm literally in bed in my pajamas, working from there. Drugstore.com is incredible, and it's a one-stop shop. Through Beauty.com, you can get fancy cosmetics you'd get from a department store, but with Drugstore.com, I can also get stuff for the dog, for the baby and Jason."
Frankel took me on a tour of her Drugstore.com beauty and household picks for moms on the go. Among her faves? HUGE Ziploc bags, Pampers diapers and Seventh Generation laundry detergent. And talk about being a "regular" girl: She waxed poetic about the virtues of Metamucil in frank, funny Frankel fashion. "We call it 'Orange' -- it's very sexy," she joked. "It was one of the must-bring items to the hospital when I had Bryn. I didn't know we weren't allowed to eat and drink anything, but I insisted we bring the Metamucil and the prune juice!"
When it comes to beauty, she said she's "obsessed" with both exfoliating and "any kind of baby wipe." "Under my eyes, under the baby's butt, I wipe my hands ... I just want to wipe everything," she quipped. "I'm going to wipe each one of you before you leave here."
Every mom has a few indulgences she clings to in spite of her busy schedule. Frankel loves "hardcore facials, where they have to do surgery to clean out your skin," she said. "They don't play nice music. They should play 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre,' because they dig in to get your skin really clean."
Another Bethenny timesaver for moms on the go? "I have a little bag with little sample bottles that you keep in your suitcase, so you don't have to think about it," she said. "The same goes for the makeup bag: Create a separate sample-sized makeup bag that you just keep in your bag. I find it saves me a lot of time."
Inevitably (as moms will do), our talk turned to all things boob, and the whole Gisele controversy resurfaced. "I'm 10 percent still breastfeeding, so we're moving into formula," said Bethenny. "I'm stopping now, and I'm guilty. I hate myself, I'm a bad person -- the whole thing. But you can't tell people what to do. It's a very personal thing that people have to work out themselves."
Thinking about the piece I wrote a few weeks ago, I was curious about her thoughts on breastfeeding in public. "I've seen it, but I haven't done it because I thought it was creepy," Frankel said. "I've gone downstairs into a basement on a couch to do it. I'm not even shy -- I'd probably whip it out anywhere, but because I've seen people get freaked out by it, I didn't."
When I asked her what parenting trends made her nuts, Frankel professed to be a live-and-let-live kind of mom. "Everybody tells everybody else what to do, and I'm not into that -- you have to find your own way," she stated. "I don't think you have to be so crazy. I'm not into hand-sanitizing every time you see the baby. The baby's not made of glass; they're not the 'baby in the bubble.' I'm not into pacifiers, because they rely on them. I'm not into vibrating chairs, because you end up walking the baby around."
Now that she's hitched, Frankel says the next season of "Bethenny Getting Married?" will likely be a more real reality show. "The wedding and baby were great on TV, but it's the little everyday things that everybody relates to," she said. "I'll probably be in my PJs, like I was yesterday at 6 o'clock. I didn't even know it was raining!"
Every mom has a few indulgences she clings to in spite of her busy schedule. Frankel loves "hardcore facials, where they have to do testking 650-195 surgery to clean out your skin," she said. "They don't play nice music. They should play 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre,' because they dig in to get your skin really clean."
There are lots of of entrepreneurs on the market that want to sell you the following magical money making system. The fact is that it is advisable create your own business strategy and take it from there.
The Internet is like alcohol in some sense. It accentuates what you would do anyway. If you want to be a loner, you can be more alone. If you want to connect, it makes it easier to connect.

Very good written post. It will be helpful to anyone who employess it, including me. Keep doing what you are doing - for sure i will check out more posts.
The solution is to gradually become free of societal rewards and learn how to substitute for them rewards that are under one's own powers. This is not to say that we should abandon every goal endorsed by society; rather, it means that, in addition to or instead of the goals others use to bribe us with, we develop a set of our own.
Now this is hghly recommeded post for me. I will surely email this to my friend.
Of course, what a great blog and enlightening posts, I surely will bookmark your site.Have an awsome day!

Sheriff's office to change policies in wake of unlawful arrest
Published on Wed, Aug 28, 2013 by
Brandy Kiger Shreve
Read More
The unlawful arrest and ill treatment of an elderly, deaf Blaine man has brought about a change of policy for the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office.
Last week, the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office settled a federal civil suit that awarded 76-year-old Blaine resident Donald Pratt $62,000 in damages and established a policy for how the department treats and communicates with people who are blind or deaf in the future.
The case, Pratt v. County of Whatcom, stemmed from a lawsuit filed in November 2012 that alleged the constitutional and statutory rights of Blaine residents Donald and Linda Pratt were violated, and that they were discriminated against because of their disability.
According to the complaint documents, on the evening of April 21, 2011, the Pratts were watching television in their home with a guest when several Whatcom County Sheriff's deputies arrived in squad cars with lights flashing.
All three people present in the home were deaf. Deputies entered the home, and Donald Pratt, who had no prior criminal record, was arrested, handcuffed and held in a squad car for more than two hours without explanation.
Because he was handcuffed, Donald Pratt was unable to use his hands (by writing or sign language) to effectively communicate with sheriff's deputies, yet he still tried unsuccessfully to demand an interpreter, and to ask why he had been arrested and what the charges were.
Eventually an interpreter was brought to Donald Pratt. However, according to the documents, the plaintiff was never released from his handcuffs so he could communicate with the interpreter and a sheriff's deputy shined a light directly into his eyes during the entire time so there was no way to see what the interpreter was telling him.
Once Donald Pratt was released from his handcuffs, the deputies brought him back into his house and demanded to know where he kept his guns. After handing over his guns from a locked cabinet, the officers confiscated them and refused to give him any explanation. The deputies later told Linda Pratt that her husband threatened to kill his son, which turned out to be a false claim.
Deputies questioned Linda Pratt as though she was a victim of domestic violence, which she was not. Donald Pratt later found out that the entire incident was allegedly predicated on a baseless claim by his son, Tom, who was angry about being evicted from the Pratt home.
Pratt was not charged with a crime, and was eventually released.
According to the lawsuit complaint, "plaintiffs sustained deprivation of their second, fourth, fifth, eighth, and fourteenth amendment rights, and the right to be treated equally by a public agency pursuant to Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1974, deprivation of liberty, deprivation of Property without just cause, ongoing pain and suffering-physical and emotional, and ongoing injury physical and emotional."
In response to the suit, the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office has revised their policies to reflect the need for better communication with the disabled population.
The new policy states that "bureau chiefs will jointly develop and maintain a master list … of qualified interpreters or responsible community members fluent in deaf communication methods (e.g. ASL, Signed English) whom employees can contact … to assist deaf individuals," and that "handcuffing a deaf individual whose primary method of communication is ASL completely removes that person's ability to communicate and can have the same behavioral and psychological effects of gagging a hearing person."
The policy further suggests that under such circumstances, "deputies should immediately redouble their efforts to communicate to such individuals what is going on and why they are handcuffed."
At press time, the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office had not returned phone calls for comment.

Degenerative meniscus tears
A degenerative meniscus tear is a different phenomenon. There often is no known injury; because the meniscus is more friable, it tears more easily. Degenerative (arthritic) changes are often present in the articular cartilage in conjunction with the meniscus tear; these changes are manifested as potholes or ruts in the cartilage, ranging from a small scuff in the cartilage to a lesion that extends the depth of the cartilage. Treatment of articular cartilage injuries is a topic for a future article, but ranges from drilling holes that cause bleeding and scar tissue to form in the lesion to joint replacement surgery.
Symptoms related to degenerative meniscus tears often resolve without surgical intervention. Medications such as ibuprofen often provide pain relief; a cortisone injection may also provide pain relief and the ability to resume activities without surgery. What activities can be resumed following a partial meniscectomy? Is there an increased risk of developing arthritis following a meniscus tear? Is my running career over? These and many other questions arise in the face of a meniscus tear.
If I can tolerate the pain, wouldn't it be better to avoid surgery? Prior to the development of arthroscopy, the answer would have been yes; the entire meniscus was removed during a surgery in which the knee was opened through a very large incision. Surgeons did not realize the importance of the meniscus at that time. As the importance of the meniscus has been learned, conservation of the structure has become a priority. Unfortunately, the meniscus does not function well at the site of the tear, so avoiding surgery will probably not protect the articular cartilage at that site. If pain resolves, surgery is usually not performed. There is concern that a small meniscus tear can become larger if left untreated; this would be dependent on the nature of the tear. Typically a torn edge that becomes caught, causing extension of the tear, is painful, resulting in self-induced activity restrictions.
There is increased risk of developing arthritis in a knee following injury to a meniscus. This is a double-edged sword. Injury to the articular cartilage may occur at the time of the meniscus injury. This is manifested as a bone bruise on MRI. The articular cartilage covers the end of the bruised bone and therefore has been injured; the more severe the initial injury, the greater the likelihood of developing degenerative changes. The loss of part of the meniscus increases the stress load in that portion of the knee and may further increase the likelihood of developing arthritis in the joint. The larger the tear (and amount of meniscus resected) the greater the stress. Other contributing factors to the development of arthritis are the age of the person, the presence of pre-existing damage, and obesity. The increased stress due to meniscal injury will be present over a longer period of time for most young athletes.
The majority of people can resume most activities following meniscus surgery. If a large portion of the meniscus was removed (greater than 50–60 percent), impact activities may needed to be limited, especially in a younger athlete.
To protect the knees, maximizing core and lower extremity strength is essential. Running on softer surfaces may decrease impact forces. Barefoot running techniques also seem to decrease the impact forces on the knees, though the jury is still out on the overall incidence of running related injuries compared with heel strikers. There is no supplement that will re-grow cartilage; glucosamine may provide some benefit in protecting the articular cartilage (mixed results in the medical literature). You may read about meniscus transplants. In younger people with severe articular cartilage and meniscal injury, meniscus transplant is sometimes performed in conjunction with other procedures to preserve the joint. Meniscus transplant is not performed for routine meniscus tears.
In summary, the menisci are important cartilage structures within the knee that reduce stress and provide some stability. Injury to the meniscus is often treated surgically, with the goal of conserving as much of the structure as possible. The surgeon should provide information regarding the status of the articular cartilage in the knee following surgery and give activity recommendations. Maximizing strength and decreasing impact forces may improve the longevity of the joint.

Claims that Britney Spears and Jason Trawick's romance is on the rocks have been slammed by X Factor USA insiders, who insist rumours that Britters is being "too demanded" are not true.
The couple, who got engaged last year, have yet to tie the knot and according to an insider, they won't be anytime soon as Spears' diva behaviour, demanding Jason constantly "check in with her" has left the 40 year-old "fuming".
A source told Us Weekly: "The romance is gone. [Jason] puts her on speakerphone so friends can hear her nagging."
They added: "I'd be shocked if they got married."
But an insider on the X Factor where Britney is a judge, have flat out denied the claims, also telling Us Weekly: "That's not Jason's style. They're happy."
While Jason and Britney have yet to set a date for their big day those close to the couple believe it will be soon after X Factor USA wraps.

The 18-year-old senior was forced to be bedridden for over a year after a serious cancer was found in Seth's leg shortly after a family trip to Marine World on April 6, 2012.
Seth attempted to get out of the visitors' gate, using his knee as leverage to push the bar ahead of him. He noticed how tender the leg felt shortly afterward, and his parents, Pam and Bob, felt that he may have hyper-extended his knee or bruised himself.
Three weeks after the accident, Seth's knee gave out after he tried to get out of the family's van. Seth had an MRI bone scan on May 22, 2012. His biopsy was done shortly afterward at Stanford on June 5. New tests confirmed that Seth was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a common form of bone cancer found in children. Seth had contracted it in his femur and found that he had lost bone density. His bones would not only fracture with minor trauma over time, but would be brittle enough to break like honeycomb.
Seth took the news calmly, but said his parents were taken by surprise.
"I was scared. Knowing what cancer is and how it can take a life. It's horrible," said Bob on Thursday afternoon. "We were just praying for the best outcome. If we would have waited another few days, Seth would have lost his leg. The bones grow into the soft tissue and go through the tunnel into the knee. If the cancer grows into an artery or nerve bundle, the leg will have to come off."
"I barely made it," Seth added. "I was lucky."
Seth had the option of taking a chance in keeping his own leg by using an internal prosthetic or of having his leg cut off. He chose the former and was happy with his decision. For the first time in a year, Seth began walking on his own almost three weeks ago, and couldn't wait to walk onto Patterson High School's campus again.
Despite winning the Association of California School Administrator's Every Student Succeeding program last year, Seth said it will be easier to achieve his full potential in his studies in a classroom setting.
"I missed my whole junior year and did home teaching with PHS," he said. "I wasn't able to go to campus. The chemotherapy wiped out my immune system. It was challenging and kind of boring. It's easier to do school with the teachers and your friends with you. I missed the interaction."
Seth said he was primarily impressed with PHS for their support, and credited English instructor Diane Peterson for her patience.
"She knew just when to push him and when to leave him alone," said Bob. "She was a big help."
Peterson and Tony Lomeli, the assistant principal of discipline, organized a fundraiser to help Seth obtain an iPad for his schoolwork. Friends and teachers also made trips to the hospital throughout his stay at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center.
Although Seth is excited to join his classmates, he is even more enthused to be walking on his own again. Although the chemotherapy had affected his lungs as well, Seth has high hopes to gain enough energy to join this year's marching band.
As an avid hiker and Eagle Scout, Seth hates being confined to one place. He longs for the great outdoors and has always wanted to be close to the Great Plains and its rustic nature.
Since he joined the boy scouts at 11-years-old, he has become incredibly patriotic and has enjoyed backpacking over 250 miles, even in high altitudes.
Despite his condition, Seth and his family have embarked on tedious adventures throughout his illness, and plan for more. They have previously attended Okizu, a camp for families struggling with childhood cancer, and Big Sky Kids Adventure Camp in Montana.
"It was a wonderful experience," said Pam. "Seth had a wonderful time. I think he will be moving out there when he can—[that] area is so…him."
To help get around without leaving his bed, Seth also utilized his skills as an FCC licensed ham radio operator to talk with others.
"It's cool to talk with people all around the world. I'm on the insomniac net," Seth said.
Despite Seth's positive outlook, expenses have run high for his family as he is forced to stay four to six days at a time in UCSF's hospital. The travel expenses alone were enough to feign any family's fortune.
These expenses, in addition to required hospital, prescription and physical therapy copays have "depleted the family bank accounts and there are still several thousand in unpaid medical bills," said Bob.
As a result, the family has set up a fundraiser on giveforward.com, a website that allows friends and family to raise money directly for a loved one in need of medical expenses.
So far, the Fairchild's have raised nearly $1,500. They hope to achieve $22,000, $2,000 of which to be paid to the website. They have roughly 100 days left to raise the full amount.

Louisiana Office of Alcohol & Tobacco Control Gains National Recognition
The National Liquor Law Enforcement Association (NLLEA), announced recently at its annual training conference, the recognition of the Louisiana Office of Alcohol & Tobacco Control as the 2005 Liquor Law Enforcement Agency of the Year. Unfortunately, at the time of the conference, all Louisiana ATC personnel were involved in the continuing response efforts for Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. As a result no one from the Louisiana ATC office was able to attend that conference.
Commissioner Murphy J Painter received the award on behalf of the agency at an October 11th special ceremony during a National Conference of State Liquor Administrators meeting. NLLEA annually chooses an agency for the award based on the following criteria;
Agency Effectiveness,Innovative Programs, and Community & Media Recognition and Training.
The Louisiana ATC personnel were cited for again having in 2005, a ninety (90) plus percent compliance rate along with executing a one of it's kind brand integrity and adulterated beverage program.
Commissioner Painter opines, "Compliance is achieved through a balanced policy of Training and Enforcement based on Louisiana''s unique Responsible Vendor Program and an unparalleled Compliance Checks Program on the enforcement side. Louisiana has maintained under 10% non-compliance rates for youth access to alcohol & tobacco products since 2000. That's over 90% compliance by the 13,500 retail accounts in Louisiana and is arguably the best in the United States."
Commissioner Painter attributes these results to Louisiana ATC's firm but fair enforcement. In addition, the continued support from the Louisiana Legislature, as well as all of the segments of the industries that have bought this concept and its programs to this level of success cannot be underestimated. The results speak for themselves.
LDR Secretary Cynthia Bridges' expressed equal regard for their professionalism, "I am especially honored to have Louisiana ATC on the Department of Revenue team. Their devotion to protecting the communities within the state of Louisiana is a comfort to every Louisiana citizen and a shining example of the continued commitment of our employees to sustaining our quality of life in these times of great challenge."
The Louisiana Department of Revenue's mission is to administer the applicable tax laws of the state of Louisiana as well as regulations concerning alcohol, tobacco and charitable gaming.

In 1826, Stamford Raffles together with Humphrey Davy brought together a group of scientists, collectors, gentry and gentlemen and founded the Zoological Society of London. The Society obtained a lease on an area of Regents Park in 1826 and appointed Decimus Burton, a young architect, to lay out the grounds and design accommodation for the animals. Some of his buildings are still here within the Zoo.
Over almost 200 years many leading architects have contributed to the built environment of the Zoo. It has developed with a wealth of architectural variety that illustrates trends and styles in architecture over that period, including two Grade I and ten Grade II listed structures.
The architecture also illustrates the history of animal husbandry. It has developed from a literal blank page in the early 19th century, where animals were often seen for the first time, to today's cooperation with research and information regarding best practice allowing this knowledge to be incorporated in the design of each new enclosure.
Such a legacy of listed architecture within the Zoo means it has had to adapt. It has amended some of the buildings to get the optimum use from the structures which suit the requirements of the animals as we know them to be today.
About the day:
ZSL History & Architect Day commences with teas & coffees followed by an introductory presentation to the history of ZSL, and a guided tour of the Zoo. The tour will illustrate the architectural themes and bring some of the history of the Zoo and the key features of the buildings and enclosures to your attention.
The presentation and tour will be led by ZSL Fellow Paul Wilson BSc(Hons), FRICS, FCIOB
11.00am: Arrive for teas and coffees
11.15am: History of ZSL Presentation
12.15pm: Architectural Tour of ZSL London Zoo & Q&As
1.45pm: Finish – free time to roam the Zoo
Price: £30

Corpse Run 131: A black and white matter
I'm sure by now you guys have heard about the riots in London, so I'm not really going to touch too much on that. However, the fact the the government is considering the shutting down of social networks as a means to stop the riots is more than a head-scratcher to me.
Their reasoning is that through communication tools like Facebook and Twitter, the young and unruly across the pond are able to organize their protests/looting.
In a sense, they are right.
On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that riots took place before facebook existed, because... you know... there are other ways to organize. The internet is merely a communication tool, shut it down, and there are other ways to get the word out.
Fliers used to be pretty popular, I hear.
For the 99.9% of the population that isn't rioting however, well... you just restricted their freedoms, and I'm sure they'll be pretty pissed.
There's a reason I don't throw stones at beehives.
The riots are a harsh reality check for the British government. Although the rioters are a nuisance, they have a point they want to tackle. - Casa Sandoval

View Our Family Trip Through California 2012 in a larger map
(How to use the map above: Because Google Maps is not playing nicely with WordPress you will have to either click the image or click the link below it to get into the interactive map. I have laid out our trip on the map in chronological order. Start on the red peg and head to the right and up towards the green peg. At the green peg head back down the coast toward the purple peg. The purple peg is the last stop before heading home. You can also read the pegs on the left-hand side.)
We spent almost two weeks traveling by car through California this summer. We saw the farmlands in central California and explored three national parks — Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Yosemite. We camped, canoed, hiked and swam in rivers — all with only an occasional internet connection! (I am definitely recommending Curry Village in Yosemite for camping for those who don't know how to camp. It's kind of like the Disney World of camping. They make it easy and half the world is there, but you can get out into the woods and feel alone.)
After roughing it, we headed north to San Francisco. The kids and I had never been to San Francisco, and we absolutely loved it. Surprisingly our National Park pass got a workout there too. Two of our favorite sites were the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, which was parkland on the cliffs surrounding the bridge. There were old military forts that once protected this great port from invasion. There was a missile base there that was used in more recent history. (The tour is guided and took too long so we just wandered a little on our own.) The land, the wildlife and the views of the bridge and port were just incredible. We also highly recommend the San Francisco Maritime National Historic Park. Besides a regular museum, it features historic vessels in the harbor that you can board and explore. The kids just loved it, and it really brought history to life.
From San Francisco we went up to see the wine country. I loved the kids seeing the vineyards and how grapes grow. One of the vineyards had a mission museum that explained how the Spanish missions developed in California. We only spent a few hours checking out the city and wineries. (We didn't do any tastings with the kids.) From Sonoma, we headed back down the coast stopping at beaches along the way. (My $10 Target double-sided beach blanket/picnic blanket was very handy on this trip. We used it for camping, beaches and picnics.)
Pacifica and Carmel were my two favorite beaches we saw. The cliffs of Pacifica were beautiful and the sand in Carmel was the whitest I have ever seen. You can see the famous Pebble Beach Golf Course from the Carmel Beach. I asked Michael how he knew what it was. He said "I've played that course many times on Tiger Woods." The town of Carmel is adorable.
Feel free to ask questions about touring California with your family. I am happy to try to answer.

I love CA! I want to fly out and drive the coast. We also want to visit Yosemite. I have been to most of the larger cities in CA but would love to go for just a long week and traipse down the coast. FCM…want to join me…haha!
TWG… Thanks for sharing! What happened to your Thanksgiving trip to Disney?

I loved California. My mom and I went over there back in mid to late-August to stay with a friend of hers while her (the friend's) parents went on a cruise. The friend lives in Lompoc, CA (which I could see on the map linked above). We went up to the vineyards, did some wine tasting, drove up along historic US Route 1, drove past William Randolph Hearst's estate (I spotted a couple of zebras in the front pasture), observed one of the elephant seal colonies, ate at In-N-Out (which is the law in California, like it is that you have to eat at the Varsity while visiting Atlanta; we still say Five Guys is better), and toured La Purisima, one of the California missions.
One thing I'll say about central California, where our friend lives: If there was anywhere I'd want to move, that would probably be it. We were concerned about the weather, since California is known for its heat. Our friend told us that's more southern California, like down towards Los Angeles. Central California seems to hold a steady mid-to-upper 70s during the day, and drop down to low-to-mid 50s at night. All year round.
We also ate at some little Thai restaurant that was built inside an old Taco Bell. They had their own herb garden behind the restaurant, which made things taste way better. Also had some awesome Mexican food at this little hole-in-the-wall place.
We went up to some of the farms as well, and that was interesting to see the workers harvesting some of the crops. We sat and watched, mesmerized, as a whole group of them were cleaning cauliflower heads before throwing them up on the truck. We went to a little farmer's market up that way, and did we have some of the BEST fruits and veggies you ever had! Fresh-picked: the only way to fly. We grow our own garden back in Georgia, but we got a few things we don't grow, such as peaches (how odd), oranges (goes without saying), and strawberries (which we do grow, but haven't had much luck with lately). I bought bag of tortilla chips that tasted way better than any tortilla chip you get at the store or Mexican restaurant. They had to be homemade, and had a better texture and flavor than anything you'd find in the store or Mexican restaurant. I need to e-mail our friend and ask her if she can pick up and ship us a couple of bags.
All in all, we had a great time, and would love to go back again.

Love to visit Cali but wouldn't want to live there. My mom was born and raised in San Francisco and still swears she's going to move back one day. I just laugh at the cost of living there. BUT it is gorgeous there, especially in the summer. Most people in San Fran don't even have air conditioning. Hard to imagine with our southern summers.
I want to take a trip out west this summer with our son (he graduates this year so I feel like this might be our last chance). We took him to Disneyland & San Diego when he was about 9 but only visited southern California. There is so much more to California than just the southern parts! I want to fly into Portland and take a couple of weeks to drive down through some of the spots that I grew up visiting (and some I never got to) and really show him the western part of the US. I'm hoping to visit Yosemite, San Francisco, Napa, Hoover Dam, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon & Mt. Zion… now it's figuring out where to fly into and out of and how much a one-way car rental is going to cost!!)

Loved looking at the crops and vineyards in CA. I cannot fathom how much food is grown there! Similar to looking at the crops grown in the Valley of Texas but not the same crops. When we moved here amost 25 years ago, we were SO disappointed at the Mexican Food in ATL. NOT the same as CA or TX. I remember eating my first TACO in Southern CA over 40 years ago when we visited our Aunt in Yorba Linda. My first trip to Disneyland too! Traveling really teaches children what our country is about. I remember when we took ours to Pearl Harbor. Neat stuff!
Techmom, in the past I have found out that there was not a drop charge for a one way in FL or CA. You may want to check that out. I am not sure if it is still in effect. If you rent in CA, you can just return somewhere else in CA. I typically rent with National and they almost always have specials.

Theresa – I don't recall seeing any porta-potties there, but that doesn't mean they weren't there. That may have been part of the trip I didn't think to register, since it would be rather mundane in my opinion. We did go to a Whole Foods ("Whole Paycheck") store, and saw the bag ban in full effect. It was strange to not see the racks of plastic grocery bags in the check-out lanes of the stores, as we're accustomed to seeing in Georgia. We also went into a Ralph's and it was the same thing. Ralph's is to California what Kroger is to Georgia: it's owned by the same company.

Also, I've had farm-fresh eggs before. When I was a kid, I'd visit my great-grandparents down in Monticello, GA. They didn't have a full-working farm – most of their animals were merely pets. The chickens weren't even of the laying or eating varieties. I remember going with my great-granddad to a chicken farm a couple miles down the road from where they lived. He would buy eggs by the crate there. Often times he'd get the double-yolk eggs.

The produce is terrible in the southeast and always has been. You have to be real lucky to get a good tomato or apple or blueberry or canteloupe. Eating out? The food in general is horrible all over the southeast, AND the portions are way too small. (woody allen). Perhaps the worst offender is South Carolina. OMG! Dysentery is the state pastime. Not a problem, you can always go get the coleslaw at Walmart. It's our approach to the very concept of food. Do you know what they think of the Croisantwich in France? Why do we settle for the slop we settle for? And why doesn't anyone do anything about it? How many Restaurant Impossibles do you have to watch to figure out America cant cook? Can't we start a chef-exchange program with the good people of France? If it weren't for oreos and milk, half of us woulda starved to death years ago.

When we moved to the farm, we were used to white eggs. We had Barred Rock Chickens which layed brown eggs. Araucan chickens lay colored eggs and many want them for Easter Eggs. We found that the eggs from chickens who ate a steady diet of insects, were a more intense yellow in the yolk. We also opened eggs that were fertilized and that was not pretty but a fact of life! We certainly did not know about free range chickens back then.
December 31st, 2012
3:40 pm
I think I left an A out of the colored chicken name…sorry.
@ Georgia, if you think the produce is bad here, then you should go to North Dakota. I would cry if I had to shop in their grocery stores year round. My son was in NM and the store we went to was also horrible. I find the produce at Publix and Costco to be pretty good. I rarely shop at Wal Mart.
My daughter is a good cook but not many girls her age ( 20) have a clue. Most just zap something in the microwave or eat out. I can cook but as many know here, I am tired of it. I posted the pictures of our Christmas Eve dinner on Facebook and a friend of mine who lives ITP told me it looked like Southern Living. That made me laugh as my daughter is now intrigued with food photography. She does a great job!

9:54 pm
@MJG, I saw your Christmas photos on FB — she did a wonderful job on the photography! There was a great one with the candle on the table — and as much as I detest brussel sprouts, even those looked possible!
Our family enjoys California — we've been several times, every time to a different part to experience it a different way. Yosemite (at Curry!), Sequoia, San Diego several times, LA a couple of times (my daughter was so smug about her $99 prom dress she got on Rodeo Drive!) Sacraomento and Lake Tahoe, San Francisco a few times, both with and without kids. The Monterrey highway just feeds my soul. Then north of San Francisco, not only Napa, but areas that are more like "real life". the coast redwood forests, and on up to just into Oregon and Crater Lake. While we visited Las Vegas a few years ago, we made a point to duck over into Death Valley for a wild look at a "desert".
Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time, T — good for you and Michael for making memories for your kids that will last a lifetime!

@wow…sorry for your dilemma and I hope things work out. The world is certainly bigger than GA and I , for one, enjoy reading about other places even if I have no plans to visit. We moved here from TX 23 years ago, for a job, and some folks there told us we were crazy to do it.

I am not "Wow, Thanks!", but I will second the above opinion. I am so tired of clicking on this blog and seeing that it is all about the west coast, and the above entries would suggest that this has turned into a coffee house for "Prof. TWG" to catch up with her few personal cronies who read her blog. Does this help your hit count? I will champion the cause to have a local Southeast Mom write this column…it is just silly to have this non-local woman continue to write it. Also, she is called Theresa only because she hasn't earned the higher degrees to be addressed as otherwise in the classroom, folks!

And good Mom journalism, right? She is always so judgemental about EVER-Y-THING, but her latest tweets are Kim Kardashian pregnant and Jessica Simpson baby bump…Good Lordy, AJC…hire a real journalist instead of this self-righteous, pompous, AZ Mom-joke

What great adventures you've had! Thanks for sharing! I, for one, appreciate it. I don't know that we'll get out to the west coast this year but I like hearing (and seeing) how other families use their vacation time and would love to plan something similar. Sounds like your kids got to experience many things through these travels and learned a lot. These are memories you have made as a family. Good for You!

I grew up out west and went to California two to three times a year. We always went to Carlsbad, just north of San Diego. Fond memories as a child. We took a HUGE family vacation out there in 1998, and that was the last time we were out west. We met up with some friends of my parents (who went to college together), and hung out for a week….So pretty out there, but I love Georgia.

I agree MJG. I like reading about other places, and especially from people who live in other places. That's the beauty of the Internet: You can feel like you've visited or lived some place, without actually having lived there. I used to read a blog by James Lileks, a humor columnist up in Minnesota. He's written about a lot of stuff going on in the state, and especially around Minneapolis, that I feel like I know just about as much about up there as I do down here in Georgia. He'd posted pictures of the state fair every year. He'd blogged about stuff going on in his family, and the neighborhood. I enjoyed reading his entries. I don't anymore because I don't have the time, and he changed the format a couple of years or so ago, and I don't like the new format. Also, he doesn't update as much as he used to.

Depression (cont.)
Exams and Tests
Depression may be diagnosed when you talk to your doctor about feeling sad or when your doctor asks you questions and discovers that you are feeling sad. You may be seeing your doctor because you feel sad or because you have another health problem or concern.
If your doctor thinks you are depressed, he or she will ask you questions about your health and feelings. This is called a mental health assessment. Your doctor also may:
Depending on your history and risk factors, your doctor may order other tests.
If you are depressed, your doctor may treat you or refer you for therapy to treat your symptoms.
Tell your doctor
Always tell your doctor if you feel sad or have other symptoms of depression. Many times, people are embarrassed by these feelings and say nothing. Depression can be treated, and the sooner you get treatment, the better your chance for a quick and full recovery.
It's possible to have periods of both energy and elation (mania) and depression. This may be bipolar disorder. If this happens to you, tell your doctor. The treatments for depression and bipolar disorder are different. For more information, see the topic Bipolar Disorder.
If you have depression only during certain seasons of the year, such as the fall and winter months, tell your doctor. You may have seasonal affective disorder. For more information, see the topic Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
Early detection
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends that all people, starting at age 12, be screened for depression.1 Screening for depression helps find depression early. And early treatment may help you get better faster.

Well of course his looks but once you get past that the way he sings and the way he acts when he's just chillin. Like when he leaves msgs on his SayNow or is video chatting with his fans. He so down to earth it's refreshing and I love it.
His voice,his songs,his body.. Hes got really nice lips :D
Well its EVERYTHING that attracts me to him :)

What attracts me the most to trey songz is his personality. He seems like a down-to-earth kind of guy and i like that.
First, he is totally my type. Tall, handsome, and confident. I would have to say that when his voice quivers it makes me wanna melt, the dimples dont hurt either. He is definately the the definition of SEXY....
Wow....to sum it up, Trey is the absolute package that every woman is looking for. This man is gorgeous, smart and talented! He just happens to have one of the most beautiful set of lips I have ever seen! Treys voice is incredible and I am always listening to him in my car. I would love to meet him one day.
his eyes and smile....u can tell alot frm them...n his voice wen he sings...u knw he loves wat he's singing...n it makes the listener more affectionate about his music
For me its the talent and his self-drive &'d motovation. Not the money. Not his connectionss. Or any of that. He understandss that if yu want anythinq out of this worldd yu have to qo for it. &'d yu have to put your all into whatever it is yu can never half-stepp with the society of America. BTW He is wonderfully attractivee. If yu readd this HOLLA. Because we need yu down here in Memphiss. Plaesee.

Yes he is very very sexy but i love his determination in everything he does...His music is amazing and when he sings you can see this it is what he loves to do and he is just so dedicated and he never settles for being average he isnt gonna stop until he reaches the top and even then he will keep reaching higher
i think for me the one thing that attracts me to trey is how real cool down to earth artist and now a days u cant find that he truely do love his fan and he really is just like us he has his moments that he to extra or hot headed but that make trey trey! i love him for just being real!
How he carries himself as a person and man. He's very confidant and intelligent. He once stated that he wants to get closer to God. I love all of his music!!!!!! He's number 1!!!!!!

IRVINE, Calif. (AP) — A couple believed to have been killed by ex-Los Angeles police officer Christopher Dorner will be memorialized at the Irvine university where the two met.
Concordia University spokeswoman Ann Ashmon says Monica Quan and her fiancé Keith Lawrence will be honored Sunday.
The event in the campus gymnasium is by the family's invitation only. The public can watch the event at separate venues on campus where it will be simulcast.
Quan and Lawrence were found shot in the parking structure of their Irvine condo on Feb. 3, setting off a massive manhunt for Dorner.
He threatened to kill officers and the families of those he blamed for ending his career. Quan's father represented Dorner in his failed appeal of his dismissal.
Quan and Lawrence met while playing basketball at Concordia.

The best way to keep a teenager out of your jewelry box is to get her pearls of her own! She has double piercing in both ears so this collection allows her plenty of options. The price is good so if she looses one...no big financial loss. Would recommend for anyone.
If you are looking for very small pearl earrings these will do well for you. I personally was hoping for closer to size 6 MM. All of these were definitely 5 mm. The brown ones were more of a strange copper orange color. Others were fine in color.
I purchased these as a gift for my daughter-in-law and was very pleased with them. They do not come in any kind of a box so I am putting them in a small jewelry box (about 2" x 3") that has been mine and I know she will be very pleased with the whole gift.
Nice sets of earrings I love pearls and the different colors go great with many outfits. I even share them with my little daughter when she is dressed up. I love my purchase and great price.
These pearl stud are nice for a change from daily earrings. Colors are true. Would recommend to a friend.
These earrings were pretty but, the post came out of one of them, the first time the back was taken off. So they are not well made.
As usual, Overstock has the Best value for the dollar.
Very happy with the set of earrings. Tiny but just what I was looking for to match the necklaces my daughter bought in China
I was slightly disappointed that these pairs of earrings arrived. The pearl shapes and sizes aren't matched too well. But for the price, can't beat it. So I kept the earrings anyway :-)

WASHINGTON D.C. (WTVB) - 7th District Republican Congressman Tim Walberg was on the winning side Wednesday when a measure pushed hard by fellow G-O-P Michigan Representative Justin Amash went down to a close defeat. It was an effort led by Amash to curb the National Security Agency's anti terrorist surveillance program. has fallen short in the U.S. House.
Amash put together a coalition of Tea Party Republicans and liberal Democrats to try and curb the program which he says invades the privacy of private citizens. But Michigan's Mike Rogers, chair of the House Intelligence Committee and also a Republican, says the program only captures numbers, screening for calls to terrorists. The vote was 217 no and 205 yes.
The White House sent several security officials to hold closed door briefings with representatives to convince them of the value of the program.

Billionaire Thomas Steyer's Farallon Loves These Services Stocks
Meena is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Farallon Capital Management is one of the largest hedge funds in the world, and the combination of size, good returns, and a long operating history- the fund was founded in 1986- has helped make founder Thomas Steyer a billionaire. In November, Farallon filed its 13F with the SEC and therefore reported a number of its long equity positions as of the end of the third quarter (see the list of Farallon's stock picks). Here are the five services stocks that Steyer's fund had the largest positions by market value in at that time:
Visa (NYSE: V) was the largest of Farallon's services stock picks. The credit card company has been reporting strong growth in both revenue and earnings, and its market performance has been good as well: the stock is up over 50% from its levels a year ago. Visa trades at 21 times expected earnings for the current fiscal year (ending in September 2013) with analysts seeing strong growth this year and next. Visa led our list of the ten services stocks hedge funds love (see the full rankings), though our impression is that credit card companies like American Express and Discover are cheaper enough to be worth considering.
Farallon increased its holdings of Priceline.com (NASDAQ: PCLN) by 82% to a total of about 250,000 shares. Priceline is in the process of purchasing Kayak, which will further establish the company as the market leader in online travel services. It has also been growing well, despite its size: last quarter revenue increased 17% and earnings were up 27% compared to the same period in 2011. Billionaire Stephen Mandel's Lone Pine Capital reported owning 1.4 million shares of Priceline at the end of September, making it the largest position by market value in the fund's 13F portfolio (check out Mandel's stock picks). The forward P/E is 17 and even if Priceline slightly misses that mark it could still be characterized as "growth at a reasonable price."
Steyer and his team also liked News Corp (NASDAQ: NWS), reporting a position of 5.9 million shares. The media company plans to break up, which has attracted quite a bit of hedge fund interest in the belief that management of the new companies will be better able to focus on operations. News Corp carries a forward P/E of only 13, but that seems to reflect high expectations for how much the financials will improve when the businesses are separated. We'd be cautious about getting into the stock.
Fellow media company CBS (NYSE: CBS) was another of Farallon's picks in the services sector. CBS has quite low multiples, with a trailing P/E of 15 and a forward P/E of 12; Wall Street analysts expect for growth to continue, bringing the five-year PEG ratio to 1. The company has in fact been growing its earnings- net income was up over 10% last quarter versus a year earlier- though revenue growth has been considerably weaker. The stock has done well over the last year, and it could be worth looking at as a value play.
Farallon owned about 940,000 shares of $59 billion market cap railroad Union Pacific (NYSE: UNP). In terms of financials, Union Pacific looks quite a bit like CBS: it trades at 15 times its trailing earnings, with a 15% increase in earnings in the third quarter compared to Q3 2011 despite a significantly lower growth rate on the top line. We think that's a good combination of growth and value, and at a beta of 1.1 Union Pacific isn't quite as exposed to the overall economy as many other transportation companies. It's a good stock to consider, though some smaller railroads trade at a discount and could be better values.

A few posts that I enjoyed this week:
Rules for conducting a peaceful budget meeting | Daily Money Shot – I really enjoyed this post because I could totally relate! I am the one that handles the finances in our household. I have tried to get my husband more involved but he generally avoids it. He's shown more interest over the last year though and this has been very encouraging to me. I know precisely what she means though when she talks about his 'condescending attitude'!
Beware of the Company You Keep – Saving Advice – This post reminded me of a chapter in 'The Wealthy Barber Returns' that talked about the difficulties of having friends and neighbours from all over the pay scale. I hadn't thought about the impact that this had on us prior to reading the book but it has really stuck with me and I've been mulling it over quite a bit every since. (Stay tuned for an exciting giveaway announcement next week that may or may not have to do with the aformentioned book!)
Making Pet Ownership Sustainable | Sustainable Personal Finance – I was really hoping that this post would tell me how to make money with my pet so that my pet could sustain herself… this was not quite the premise of the article though I did get some very helpful suggestions in the comments section. Perhaps you guys know of any other ways for my pet to earn her keep? (I have a dog. She is deaf and not predictably friendly with other dogs. She is very cute and her talent is pooping.)
Hyperbole and a Half: The God of Cake - This last one has nothing to do with personal finance but I was reminded of this post last night and it is one of my favourite blog posts ever. Ever. Caution: If this is your first visit to this blog, consider the rest of your day a write-off. I should mention as well that there are two little swears near the end as well in case that's horribly offensive to you.
