Split but together: Divorced couples finding novel ways to live under the same roof for their children's sakeMonica McGrath and Kent Kirkland are divorced parents of two young children. They live in one house with their children, call themselves friends and borrow sugar from one another.The Edmonton family gained Canada-wide recognition this month after media attention turned to their family set-up and living arrangements. Part of this attention was due to their custom-built "transporter" house, with two separate sides and a hallway connecting them, but also because they're doing what many separated couples say they want to do; put the kids first."I still consider us a family. We have kids together, we're still connected," says Ms. McGrath of her ex-husband. "We need to together raise our kids, no matter what our situation is. This home allows us to do that."Their family model is a version of a "bird's nest" arrangement where children stay in the house, while separated or divorced parents come to them. Some see this as a model that helps minimize disruption for children. It means they don't have to be uprooted, trekking from one parent's house to another's on a regular basis. Although this model is still rare, experts say it has become increasingly common over the last 10 years. (Photo: Walter Tychnowicz for National Post)

Census Canada 2011: Same-sex marriage, childless couples, common-law couples and lone-parent families on the riseThe sanctity of marriage as the bedrock of the Canadian family is steadily eroding as the country's social fabric evolves, new census data released Wednesday reveals.Instead, although married couples are still the norm – about two thirds of families – their numbers are lagging and only increased by 3.1% between 2006 and 2011.In contrast, the number of common-law couples rose by 13.9% and lone-parent families rose by 8% over the same period.The shift means that common-law couples now account for 16.7% of all families, and lone-parent families now represent 16.3% of the total.Meanwhile, in another trend reflective of the changing social landscape, same-sex couples are increasingly settling down together. Notably, the number of same-sex marriages tripled between 2006 and 2011, the first five-year period during which they could legally tie the knot in Canada.
Extremely Bad Advice: Daddy Issue
"I find that the period directly following a major holiday is the best time to ask yourself, "Do I want more family? Or do I want to gently claw at my own face while soaking in a tub of vinegar?"

'I would do it again'; court hears horror of alleged honour killingIt's the Canadian Maple Leaf that flies high over the picturesque locks at Kingston Mills near this historic city, but on the night of June 30, 2009, it might just as well have been the black-red-and-green flag of Afghanistan, with its sacred line proclaiming the greatness of Allah.What happened at the locks that night, Crown prosecutors alleged in Ontario Superior Court Thursday, was a so-called "honour killing," the culmination of a violent misogynist Afghan culture that had been transplanted holus-bolus years earlier into the heart of central Canada."May the devil s— on their graves," Mohammad Shafia told his second wife, Tooba Mohammad Yahya, 20 days after the bodies of the couple's three teenage daughters and Mr. Shafia's first wife were recovered from a car in the water at the locks.Found dead by drowning in a black Nissan Mr. Shafia had bought just eight days earlier – the suggestion implicit that he got it for that very purpose — were Rona Amir Mohammad, the barren wife who had been presented to the children and outsiders both as an "auntie," and rebellious daughters Zainab, 19, Sahar, 17, and 13-year-old Geeti.Charged with four counts each of first-degree murder are Mr. Shafia, Ms. Yahya and their oldest son Hamid, who was 18 at the time. All are pleading not guilty.
Only planet: Why one child is often enoughFor about 30 years, social psychologist Susan Newman has been smashing down the stereotypes people lob at only children. They're spoiled, lonely, bossy — they even talk funny, apparently. In her new book, The Case for the Only Child: Your Essential Guide, Newman reviews more than a century's worth of research on only children. Speaking by phone from her New Jersey home, Newman says many people don't realize how consistent the findings are: "We've been brainwashed to believe that every child needs a sibling. And the research shows that that's just not true. Only children turn out just as well, or develop just as well, as other children." (Illustration by Steve Murray)
Gold runs in their veins: A modern family of prospectorsIt is an awkward moment, and it happens all the time. Jessica Bjorkman will meet a stranger, a new face in town, and if they start talking, and if the conversation winds around to the inevitable career question — ''So, what do you do for a living?'' — she will sigh, just a little. See, it is complicated.Ms. Bjorkman is not a wild-eyed old man with a grizzled beard yodeling around the great north woods on the back of a donkey. And she does not live in the Yukon. And she has not memorized all the words to Robert Service poem, the Cremation of Sam McGee.So when she tells someone, "I am a prospector," that someone will invariably shoot her a curious look."Most everybody is surprised," Ms. Bjorkman says. "I say we go out looking for rocks that have potential. We are the step before a mine, basically, we are the ones out there, on the ground, looking for something promising."She is looking for the same thing that the old guy on the donkey was looking for in the Klondike, circa 1898: Gold.The 31-year-old is not alone in her passion for pursuing a lucky strike. She inherited the gold bug from her father, Karl, as did her five younger siblings, all of whom, save for the baby, Karla, who is still in high school, are prospectors and employees of Bjorkman Prospecting, an all-in-the-family northwestern Ontario enterprise that is as rare as the precious metal they seek. Jessica's mother, Nikki, keeps the books.They are a family that moils for gold.Photo: Independance Pass on the way to Aspen, Colorado: Dad (Karl), Mom (Nikki), Karla, Katarina, Jessica, Bjorn in 2009.

170 costumes, 170 days: Dad finds new way to embarrass son Dale Price of American Fork, Utah, has been seeing his 16-year-old son off to school for the past 170 school days in an unusual way: Dale dresses up every morning in a different costume and waves goodbye to his son from the family porch.The dress-up idea started in August 2010, when the son's bus route started passing by the Price household. Their son, Rain, was embarrassed at first, but according to Dale's Wave At The Bus blog, Rain has a great sense of humor and, "he did laugh at the waves."

No reviews = fear of bad reviews from anti patriotic critics
by antonphd
That's my wild stab in the dark as to the moronic reasoning behind pulling a green lantern on reviews for Captain America. They are afraid of critics who will give a bad review because they hate patriotic movies. I write this as a liberal. Critics do bullshit like that. I mean, remember how ebert gave speed 2 a thumbs up and praised the superior acting of the stars. i don't know if he ad a crush on jason patric or what but that review was horseshit.

I'm glad. I don't want to be right, i just think marvel would sell their soul to get TDKR numbers at the Box Office.
by Arkhaminmate001
Marvel can't compete with Batman, nor any D.C. character. In fact no other character this side of Harry Potter - also Warner Bros - can compete. TDKR will do the same numbers in 2012 as Harry Potter is taking this year. Spider Man and the Avengers will scrap it out in the few weeks B4 the release of TDKR, but after that.............nothing. C.A. will be the best superhero movie this year, just by default, as all the others were pretty poor. X-Men origins was okay, G.L. was terrible, and Thor was in the middle. marvel and sony will get their movies out before TDKR nukes the box office. If C.A. gets 3 stars or more at Total Film - the best movie reviews IMO - i'll go see it.
July 20, 2011, 1:34 p.m. CST
BTW C.A. 54% Harry Potter 95% The limey kid with the glasses TKO round 1. But don't fret he did it to Transformers (34%) too.

Not even Green lantern?! Thor has made more money than Superman Returns internationally. Yes Thor, who has been deemed a second or third rate marvel hero by many here beat the world's most famous superhero. (you will mention the extra 3D money, but people were willing to pay extra. And then there's Superman Returns' budget of $270 million vs Thor's $150 mill). You are right tho, nothing Marvel makes will come close to TDKR, but it will still be awesome.

animals (including humans) that engage in a homosexual coupling increase their lifespans by 22%
by THE_CHOPPAH
LOL! Are there really people studying homosexual coupling of animals. If so, I hope not with federal funds. The Republicans would have a field day with that one. As per your study, the same study said that women married to men have a shorter lifespan than those not married. And that men married to women live longer. Therefore, it is fair to say that it is living with men that reduces life expectancy, so gay men in relationships should have a lower life expectancy than men married to women. Btw, I don't believe a word of this study. Especially, that 22% number. And where are all these gay animals?

One evening, she met a woman who said stopping illegal immigration was her top issue and backed an enforcement-only approach.
Romero listened, gave her a flier, and moved on.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
"It's OK," she said. "Even though we may not agree on everything, my door will always be open."
Paredes, a 35-year-old medical school student at the U., said that as a Republican candidate he wants to help communicate the GOP message to Latinos.
At an Amigos y Libros meeting at the Salt Lake City Library, he introduced himself — speaking in Spanish to the small book club reading "Los Santos Inocentes" by Miguel Delibes. They listened as he spoke about his top issue — education.
He said afterward that he would oppose any attempt to repeal the law granting in-state tuition for illegal immigrants and that he could be an effective voice within the GOP.
"You have a student who is a 4.0 and the only thing that's missing is a Green Card?" Paredes asked. "Why would we not want them here?"
But Litvack said Paredes' campaign of trying to change his party from within is a well-worn strategy.
"It's the same tired effort made against me in six campaigns," he said, "that they'll make change within the majority party. It doesn't make any difference at all."
Conflicting messages » Thad Hall, associate professor of political science at the University of Utah, said on the issue of immigration, Utah Republicans will point to efforts boasting a more compassionate approach on the issue, such as The Utah Compact.
He said that, coupled with the state's offering of in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants and the Legislature's attempt to pass a comprehensive raft of bills that included a controversial guest worker law set to take effect in July, could make the GOP look more attractive to Latinos in Utah.
But, he said, the national noise of self-deportation, fence-building and enforcement-only approaches can drown out local politics.
"The harsher stands seen nationally tend to push Latinos to the Democrats," he said. "You have conflicting messages at the national and state level and that can be a problem."
The most recent Latino Decisions tracking poll showed, in fact, a growing gap of support between President Barack Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney — 72 percent of Latinos for Obama and only 20 percent for Romney.
Those kinds of margins, Hall said, are dangerous and could impact future generations of Latino voters in Utah.
"I don't think it's too late, but it's unclear to me if they (GOP hard-liners) represent the majority view in the party," Hall said. "That's the kicker. The clear-headed ones who see a hard-line tactic as unattractive to Latinos could be the same ones voted out of office. Then, you will see a shift."
Thomas Wright, Utah State Republican chairman, said the party does have work to do.
"I think President Obama did a spectacular job of reaching out to that group and they appreciated it and responded with that support," Wright said. "But over the last four years, that gap continued to narrow. While he is a charismatic and great speaker, his values don't necessarily align to their values. At the same time, we need to do a better job in getting our message out there."

That sound you just heard was Arizona Cardinals starting running back Rashard Mendenhall running to the practice field to impress the coaching staff, because apparently, backup Andre Ellington is right on his tail.
Speaking with the media this afternoon, Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians praised Ellington, suggesting that he's the type of back that can 'carry the load'.
Per Darren Urban:
Arians said he doesn't see Andre Ellington as 3rd down back. Can see him as a back who can carry the load.
Arians was asked if he felt Ellington had done enough work to be the third down back for good, but apparently he's done far more than that in Arians' eyes.
And while Arians wouldn't commit to putting Ellington into the starting slot over Mendenhall, it's potentially something we could see if the former Pittsburgh Steeler doesn't improve his game.
That said, despite the pat on the back, Ellington only played in about 25% of the Cardinals snaps yesterday, so he'll likely need to get more field time if he's going to eventually take over Mendenhall.

'Avatar': New Flesh Covers Old Bones
James Rocchi, Special to MSN Movies
In the years and days leading up to the release of "Avatar," James Cameron's long-in-production dream project and first feature film since 1997's box-office record-breaking "Titanic," anticipation and recrimination seemed to be running neck-and-neck. It would be a game-changer, the future of cinema OR it would be an expensive rehash of "Dances With Wolves," a hollow cartoon.
Now that "Avatar" is actually here, the reality falls somewhere between the peaks of hype and hatred: "Avatar" is a very big, very enjoyable, summertime action film that, much as it covers several actors in computer-generated imagery, drapes new flesh over very old bones. The technology and technique are as shiny and innovative as the story and themes are familiar and recycled, and the end result is something like ordering and eating a $100 burger at some white-linen four-star restaurant. It's well-made, and clearly cost a lot, and, at the end of the day, it is a burger. But considering how few big sci-fi action films are actually any good at all, perhaps we should just consider ourselves lucky. If there's nothing here as subversive as "The Matrix," there is also nothing here as stupidly silly as "Transformers 2."
In 2154, ex-Marine Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) is recruited for a high-tech project in which his twin, now deceased, had a cloned body made that combined his DNA with that of the indigenous population on Pandora, a planet that houses the intelligent, tribal Na'vi. The idea is to pour one's consciousness into these bodies to survive Pandora's atmosphere and communicate with the locals, who just happen to have their home atop a huge deposit of a naturally-occurring superconductor. The priceless nature of "Unobtanium" makes all the expense and effort worth it. And Jake's a match for his brother's DNA, so he can use the "Avatar" body (and, as he's paralyzed from the waist down, wants to). All pleasures of the new flesh aside, he can earn enough to afford the operation to fix his spine. (Take note, progressives: Even in 2154, we don't have single-payer.)
Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) wants Jake to help talk to the Na'vi so as to collaborate and share. Col. Quaritch (Stephen Lang, all scars, sweat and swagger) wants Jake to walk among the Na'vi to get the intel that'll help in the ass-kicking and name-taking it'll come down to if they don't want to move. And Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), the Na'vi daughter of the chief, wants outsider interloper Jake to go away, but, come on: We've all seen enough movies to know how that's gonna work out.
It works out to climax in a battle between humanity's technological might and the Na'vi's pluck and spirit (plus a little backup from the local flora and fauna), with Jake and Neytiri's love over all. The action in "Avatar" is spectacular, and the action set-pieces are gigantic, and nonetheless framed around the familiar beats and breaks of "Pocahontas" or "Dances With Wolves." A soldier discovers love and belonging on the other side, and the right kind of war gives our hero nobility of purpose and us a mix of visceral action and moral righteousness. Credits. Curtain.
This is a story Cameron's had in his head since his teens, and you can tell, as a little more polish from a more grown-up sensibility might have sanded some of the juvenile rough edges off. Neytiri gives Jake a backhand compliment at one point: "You have a strong heart -- no fear. But stupid. Ignorant like a child." She should talk. Fans of the epic "Terminator 2" effects will like the innovations of "Avatar," but fans of the romance of "Titanic" will find Jake and Neytiri's affair shallow and simple.
Cameron's sensibility isn't the problem here, his superheated heart and brain as ever pumping a 50-50 mix of testosterone and tenderness, sci-fi and sensitivity. It's the execution that keeps you at arm's length. "We will fight terror with terror," Col. Quaritch grunts, promising "shock and awe." Jake tells Neytiri that, yes, he was sent to make the Na'vi move: "But then everything changed." And what's the point of all the innovative technology and quantum leaps in effects and 3-D splendor if the story and characters are so familiar and rote and two-dimensional?
Much is being made of the 3-D projection of "Avatar," and that effect is simultaneously restrained (there are mercifully few moments of long objects or hurtling rocks flying out perpendicular from the screen) and at the same time necessary (without the 3-D, the computer-crafted action and settings would seem flat and plastic and too-smooth). Without the 3-D, "Avatar" would look like a comic book; even with the 3-D, it still feels like one.
The point, I guess, is that "Avatar" looks awesome, and has knockout sequences, and somewhere Michael Bay and the Wachowskis and Roland Emmerich and Brett Ratner are sweating, or crying, over how far Cameron's raised the bar for big-screen action. "Avatar" is nothing new, but once you get your head out of the hype and the hate, you can appreciate it for the well-made adventure it is.
James Rocchi's writings on film have appeared at Cinematical.com, Netflix.com, SFGate.com and in Mother Jones magazine. He lives in Los Angeles, where every ending is a twist ending.

Scenes at the Manila Bay
Was able to walk with my AJ Orgmates last January around Manila, and the bay area was our last stop. We were able to capture great sunset shots and the people who were enjoying this as well…and some were swimming at the bay.
Anyways, if you've been following my blog, I have a lot of sunset shots of the Manila Bay and other places around the Metro and provinces. Just click here: http://litratonijuan.com/tagged/sunset
Click here for more from this set
Last Friday, January 31, we celebrated the Chinese New Year in Binondo, Manila. And t'was definitely more fun and way better than last year's celebration. Aside from our kababayans, it was also filled with tourists, and dancing dragons and lions. This was definitely a day to remember.
So we got the chance to organize a Chinese New Year Photowalk. And yep, it was a successful one. Really enjoyed the company of my fellow JaywalkersPH, friends, and photography enthusiasts.
Will post more in the coming days.
Click here for the Full Set
Reflections: A Self-Portait
Here are some of the shots from my photo walk with my former orgmates in college. In this set you'll see photos of my reflections. It's interesting to look for subjects where your reflections can be projected. For example, I used the eye of my friend to project my reflection and I was glad that it was pretty sharp since the sun was directly facing him.
Try to look for interesting objects where you can shoot your reflections! Use #JuanReflection then I'll feature your photo on my blog if I find it awesome!
Project Manila: In Monochrome
"When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black and white, you photograph their souls!" by Ted Grant
Black and White really adds drama to a photograph. I just love how my shots in this set look in Black and White. A different perspective to look at things. This shots were taken from a photowalk that I did 2 years ago that started at Quiapo to Intramuros. Just converted these images to black and white to make it more interesting. I really miss doing photowalks.

TEAMS: Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals, Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, St. Louis Rams
Two weeks ago, the Seahawks shocked the division, the league and even the country when they shamelessly bludgeoned the Arizona Cardinals at CenturyLink Field by a score of 58-0. Touchdowns on offense, defense and even special teams contributed to a total massacre of a division rival that nobody saw coming. Last week, the Seahawks followed it up with a dominant showing on the road in Toronto, when they beat the Buffalo Bills, 50 to 17. They proved that they weren't a one-trick pony, only powerful in their own domain, as many pundits were quick to call out. The real test, though, was the following week, when the big, bad, division rival San Francisco 49ers were coming to town. Since last weekend, the city of Seattle has felt like the playoffs were coming to town, because the matchup was flexed into primetime. Expectations were set in place, given the 'Hawks recent dominance - but the 49ers looked like they were poised for big things when they managed to defeat the Ne...

Passwords. Maybe it's just me, but I find them fascinating. If I ever learn of someone's password, be it email, Wi-Fi connection, or otherwise, I feel like a small victory has been made. And if someone ever learns of mine, well, I feel totally violated and kind of stupid. Mostly because all of my passwords are stupid. My husband and I just recently had an incident where friends who were staying with us needed to know our Wi-Fi password -- embarrassing! We thought the password we came up with was cute and amusing, and, technically, it is (to us), but when I had to say it out loud? Worst ever.
But, I can at least say this: My passwords may be dumb, stupid, embarrassing, and a little inappropriate, but you'll never figure them out. Which is more than I can say for a lot of other folk. SplashData just released their annual "25 Worst Passwords" for 2011 list (I.E., the most common/easiest to figure out), and I've gotta say, I'm shocked at the insane obviousness of number one.
You can read all 25 passwords here, but please give me the satisfaction of sharing the top 10 with you. Here we go:
1. password
2. 123456
4. qwerty
5. abc123
6. monkey
7. 1234567
8. letmein
9. trustno1
10. dragon
I really am shocked that people are still using the word "password" and the numerical sequence "123456" as passwords. Weren't those, like, the first passwords ever? I don't claim to be some tech whiz or anything, but I think my method for coming up with a password is quite effective: I just think of a random word. Whatever pops into my head first -- even if it's made up -- becomes my password. I remember my first ever password to log onto AOL or something was "metamorphi." Weird? Yes. Did anyone ever break into my account? Hell no they didn't.
Yeah, it's a little annoying to reprogram passwords -- you have to find the settings, etc. etc. -- but isn't it worth it? Not only so no one hacks into anything of yours, but so you don't wind up on this list?
What's your method for coming up with a password?
Image via andyrusch/Flickr
I use numbers, and symbols, combined with caps. And you would be surprised how many people use the same password for all of their online things. I do cyber security and it's so tedious to explain to a client that no you should not use the same password for your email and your banking.
I just hit a keys randomly using symbols, letters and numbers. I have to write it down but then I throw it away after a couple of days.
I work at a bank and we have to change our passwords every 6 weeks and each has to be unique never to be used again (not even similar words). They must include numbers, letters, capitals, and special characters. After a while you get good at coming up with new passwords. I typically come up with something related to the current weather since they change so often. Its funny though, I have never changed my email or e-banking password. woops :S I should know better! lol.
I use family names and years that I will never forget
I used a random password generator. Got a nice mix of upper and lowercase letters, and numbers.
OMG, I can't remember passwords longer than 6-8 characters and DH's is like 16 digits long. Most of my passwords are words that are comforting to me, like my favorite sandwich I ate with my grandma as a kid, or the kind of candy she carried in her purse, or the color of my favorite shirt; now I combine those words with capitalization, weird characters, and numbers. My email passwords are different from my social networking passwords, which are different from my banking passwords, and my online photo storage passwords, etc. I have certain "groups" though, so I will have the same "banking password" for my two bank accounts, and the same password for my Facebook and my Cafemom account. It's just easier that way. I change my passwords twice a year with the daylight saving time... makes it easier to remember.
I use random letters and numbers, no actual words.

Seems good quality and has already helped dry skin. Not crazy about the lid/opening. It's messy and allows too much product to build up on top of cap/leak down side.

I have had to deal with extremely oily skin for a long time. I'm 22 years old and I have been using a Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisturizer with SPF 15 in it. Even though it was oil free, by the time lunch rolled around my face was a grease slick and my makeup all off. Now that I switched to jojoba oil my oily skin has not entirely dissapeared but is well on its way to being under control. I rarely have to touch up my makeup and my face isn't NEARLY as greasy as before! I love it! I also put it in my hair to tame it and to give it high gloss and shine! So worth it!
Possibly DANGEROUS! DISSOLVED PLASTIC!

I wrote to Now Foods about this issue I encountered but they did not write back so I have no choice but to warn people. When I got this product, I removed the seal and while removing it I saw that on the under side of the seal there was a thin stretchy layer of plastic that was dissolving/ deteriorating and separating from the aluminum colored seal. I believe most of it had been dissolved by the oil already and I was only able to quickly remove the remaining part. I do not feel safe putting this product on my face etc knowing that there is plastic dissolved in the oil!!
Works for me!

This oil has made two of my moles basically disappear (they are completely gone but there is still a light brown spot where they used to be). I also have horrible wrinkles on my chest from sleeping all scrunched up on my side at night and I loaded up the Jojoba oil and after a few days, those wrinkles have smoothed out completely (they haven't disappeared but the difference after years of having them is amazing). It hasn't done much for the fine lines around my eyes or on my forehead though. I also add this to my lotion and it extends the lotion and really moisturizes my skin.

Good product, I use on my hair as a hot oil treatment and it leaves the hair very soft; also I use this daily to help keep the scalp moisturized. I am a black female with natural hair and this works excellent.

The mother of 14-year-old Gaia took a year off from filming as a "birthday present" to herself and to her family. OK, fair enough; she can do whatever she wants with her life, right? Well, here's the problem: Thompson apparently thinks every mom should do this. And that's not all.
Thompson went so far as to say, "You can't be a great mum and keep working all the time."
Let's just set aside the fact that Thompson, who is married to another actor, reportedly has a net worth of $64 million, making it possible for her to give up work for the rest of her life if she sees fit. Just for a second, shall we? She did, after all, soften the blow a little bit by saying moms should do this -- "if they can afford it."
More From The Stir: Angelina Jolie Brings the 'Mommy Wars' to a Whole Other Level
Let's, instead, talk about good moms -- more specifically the notion that one thing as particular as taking off work is going to make you one.
It's not.
There are plenty of women who haven't worked a single day of their children's childhoods who are NOT good moms (which isn't to say that stay-at-home moms don't rock ... we should be clear, there are plenty of fantastic stay-at-home moms, but correlation does not equal causation and all that jazz). Just as there are plenty of hard-working women whose children can attest to their excellence in the mothering department.
What's startling about Thompson's comment isn't simply that she is so out of touch with regular moms, but that she simplified good motherhood to the point of absurdity.
Good motherhood is many things.
It's loving your kids -- truly loving them, from deep down within you. It's showing that love to your kids on a consistent basis.
It's also more tangible -- feeding them, bathing them, clothing them, sheltering them; ensuring they have the basics covered to the very best of your abilities.
It's not abusing them in any way, shape, or form -- be it physical, verbal, mental, emotional.
It's recognizing your strengths and your limitations too, and learning when to ask for help. It's recognizing your kids as individuals, and learning to play to their strengths and to help them overcome their limitations.
It's being interested, engaged, involved, as much as you can be. It's also not losing yourself, because kids need good, strong role models.
It's all that and so much more.
Can you do that without taking a year off work? Good! Plenty of moms can.
And if you can't, well, then by all means, give your notice today. But that's about you and your limitations ... not about every other mom out there.
Because being a good mom is many things, but most of all, it's personal. Just as every kid is different, so is every mom.
What do you think makes you a good mom?
Image via London Ent/Splash News
Being a good mother is mainly about putting kids first . If you are sick you still take care of them. If you are broke you prioritize and use what you have toward their needs first. In my case if you have a broken ankle and no car and they have an appointment or prescription that you can't get to unless you walk on said broken ankle you darn well do it.
I think she was speaking to her audience (moms and dads with loot). I agree with her 100%. Even a poor family should do this if at all possible. That six weeks off and back to work draging your newborn from the house to the sitters every morning deserves a break, not to mention tht bonding that will be created within that first year.
All work and no parenting makes Jane a dull girl. She did not recommend quitting your job and stay at home to be a good parent, she meant take a break and I agree, especially women with real men, you know the kind of man that has an income, and not social security/disability benefis. No punt intended.

Customer questions about this product
- How can I safely remove crumbs from a toaster?
- Most toasters have a tray at the bottom where the majority of crumbs will fall. Remove the toaster's crumb tray, empty all of the loose crumbs and wipe the tray clean, making sure it's dry before replacing.
Do not turn the toaster upside down or shake to remove crumbs. This can be damaging, loosening internal components and further lodging crumbs inside of the toaster. Shaking a toaster can also cause the lever not to work over time.
Warm and crisp bread, frozen waffles, and many other foods to perfection with the Toastmaster TP209 2 slice commercial pop-up toaster! This pop-up toaster combines 1100 watts of power with two standard cooking chambers so you can toast up to 150 slices of bread per hour for your hungry customers.

Top New Year's resolutions parents wish their kids would make
Cleaning their room still ranks high among a list of suggestions to children.
Get a haircut and get a real job was George Thoroughgood's parents' advice to him. And several of his folks' further suggestions to their rebel son echo the top New Year's resolutions parents want their offspring to make in 2013.
According to a study by K¹² Inc., an online education provider for pre-elementary through high school students, parents have a variety of recommendations for their kids captured in an interactive survey the company conducted in December.
Parents responded that 47 percent of them favor having their children keep a cleaner room in the new year. (It seems that the bedroom battle may be the longest running in our nation's history.)
More from MSN Living: 51 perfect daytrips for families
Desires for kids to become more involved in school, eat healthier and be more physically active each accounted for 33 percent of support from responding moms and dads. Playing fewer video games, which may contribute positively to the previously listed goals, received 29 percent of parental votes.
Bing: Worst New Year's resolutions
Other suggestions for children were to practice better etiquette, have better hygiene, text less and read more.
All seem like beneficial suggestions regardless of age, but it remains to be seen how many children will implement their parent's advice.

MILWAUKEE (WSAU) Democrats and Hispanics have scored a victory in one of Wisconsin's final re-districting disputes. Yesterday three federal judges re-drew the boundaries of two state Assembly districts in Milwaukee, in order to give Hispanics a better chance of keeping at least one house seat. Earlier the court said the Republicans who drew the new maps violated the federal Voting Rights Act, by splitting Milwaukee Hispanics into two districts to reduce their ability to elect at least one of their own to the Assembly.
The judges asked the parties in the original redistricting lawsuit to try and reach an agreement on the final two districts. But they couldn't, so the judges did it for them.
The State Justice Department says it might appeal. The court had earlier upheld the other 97 Assembly districts and all 33 Senate districts – but the judges scolded the majority Republicans for drawing them in secret, and locking Democrats and others out of the process.
The new maps will take effect in the fall elections. Critics say the G-O-P rigged them to give them a better chance of winning elections all the way until the next re-districting which follows the 2020 Census.

Eva Solo's Modern, Minimalist Grill Wins Design Awards
We tend to splurge on steaks and stick to the low-end when it comes to charcoal grills. But, if we were hosting a posh picnic, we'd pick up this Table Grill by Eva Solo ($340, Lumens.com).
The small tabletop grill, designed by Claus Jensen and Henrik Holbaek, just won Best In Show at the Las Vegas Gourmet Show. (The BeaterBlade also picked up an award at the show, in the Gadgets Cutlery and Accessories category.) The Eva Solo tabletop grill also won a 2006 Baden-Wattemberg International Design Award and the IF Design Award 2007.
The bowl is made of porcelain while the grid and insert are made of stainless steel. When hot, the grill sits securely on the wood table protector. The bowl, grid, and insert are all dishwasher safe. These last two bits are important for us urbanite grillers: without a stand, bucket grills can leave marks on the roof or sidewalk ... and yes, we've been known to hose off our grill and then run it through the dishwasher for a de-grease deep clean before tucking it away until next summer.
Those with a bigger backyard and a bigger budget might be up for the larger Charcoal Grill by Eva Solo ($960,
3 Comments
my grandfather made a similar portable grill around 75 years ago. The base was made of clay and the metal grill that holds the food was made of clay. Unportable cooking stoves were also made.
Price : ingenuity.
Eco friendly and sustainable to the earth.
Food : flavorful.
2 weekends ago i went to the famous grocery shop on 41st and 9th avenue. They made stuffed grapes in clay pots. So much better than all clad and alumninium and similar junk.
where do i buy clay cooking pots.
outrageously expensive for what it is..
I cant wait til Target comes out with a more affordable version. I like the look of this.

Holly Golightly and the Brokeoffs
Holly Golightly Smith was indeed named after the main character in Truman Capote's 1958 novella Breakfast at Tiffany's, but that's pretty much where the similarities between the London-born singer and the wanna-be Manhattan socialite end.
Smith is currently celebrating her 20th year as an independent garage rocker, first with the all-girl Thee Headcoatees, then as a solo artist and now with longtime partner Lawyer Dave as Holly Golightly and the Brokeoffs.

These images are from a book called Where Children Sleep.
I think what I find so striking about these images is the notion that every child is born with a completely clean slate - a mind and body full of potential. Genetically and biologically, there is no such thing as a "christian child" or a "muslim child", or a child with "poor blood" or "rich blood".
Yet sadly, children are inextricably bound to the destinies of their parents. The involuntary destiny of the wealth or poverty of their parents, on one hand. And the imposed destiny of the religious or political doctrines of their parents, on the other.
If only all children could be born in a world of greater equality, greater freedom of thought, and less doctrine.

Depression Health Center
Postpartum Depression: More Common Than You Know
Healing From Postpartum Depression
It took Merritt much longer to find help. It was only after Graham, then 2½, broke his leg falling out of his crib that both Merritt and her husband felt so guilty they pursued counseling. That's where they learned that Merritt's strange detachment from Graham was due to postpartum depression and anxiety. She started taking antidepressants and continued with counseling, and within several months her anxiety began to wane. "They'd give me goals: 'You're going to go do this with your son by yourself this week,'" she recalls.
For Garman, in retrospect, there were warning signs that she might be at higher risk for postpartum depression. "I had dealt with anxiety on and off when I was younger, and took medication for it," she says. "I'd even seen one of my close friends go through postpartum depression. But in myself, I just couldn't see it." Even during treatment, Garman struggled with feelings of guilt. "I kept asking my social worker, 'Why do I feel like this?' And she'd say, 'Christina, it's not you.' I really had to learn to forgive myself for feeling that way."
Merritt says her son was about 3 before she really felt confident caring for him. She says the transition to parenthood is so rough that almost every new mom could benefit from therapy. "Becoming a parent is a life-changing experience," she says. "It changes your marriage, your career, everything. People don't get it. Even though I was fortunate and had a lot of people helping me, no one really understood what was going on."
"There's nothing that's not stressful about bringing a new baby into your home," Silverman says. "For many women, it helps just to know they're not alone. Remember those pictures of Brooke Shields when her first daughter was born? She looked like the glowing mother, but now we know, because she shared her story, that she was miserable. So if you're miserable, too, it doesn't mean you're defective. You're not crazy. It's OK that you feel crappy, and it's OK that you don't feel this instant bond. But it can get better, and it will -- if you get help."
Creating a Postpartum Wellness Plan
Even if you're not at risk for postpartum depression, it's a good idea to create -- in advance -- a comprehensive wellness plan to follow after the baby is born. "This can actually help prevent postpartum depression," says expert Shoshana Bennett, PhD. Key elements of the plan include:
Sleep: Sleep deprivation can induce or worsen postpartum depression. Even if you'll be breastfeeding, designate someone else to share nighttime duties. Consider pumping so that someone else can feed the baby on occasion, and you can get a few full sleep cycles.
Support: Who's going to help out? How will you take a break? When will you get out of the house? Line up friends and family or consider hiring a doula, a professional who helps guide women through delivery and bringing baby home. Research shows that women who have labor and postpartum doulas reduce their risk of developing postpartum depression. But be sure that people who sign up to help know what you need. "Some people who think they are 'helping' aren't," Bennett says. If your mother's idea of helping is holding the baby while you make lunch -- and that's not the kind of help you need -- be prepared to explain what you really want. "Don't worry too much about hurting people's feelings. It's more important to take care of yourself and your baby."

When ants need to cross some dangerous span in order to get to the thing they want, certain ants in the colony will sacrifice themselves to build a bridge that other ants can cross. That's how you get the honey. In GM's case, the honey is a $12 billion government lifeline. The dangerous span is, well, extinction. And the sacrificial ants in this case could be Pontiac, Saturn, and Saab.
Before the government would start writing checks (to the automakers, at least), Congress told GM (and Ford and Chrysler) to come back with a plan that gave some indication of long-term viability and a return to financial health. Supposedly, as part of such a plan, GM has looked at "shedding" the three brands in question, which would eliminate the massive costs associated with production, marketing and sales. But that would happen after massive payouts, some serious upheaval and tens of thousands of job losses. It would leave GM with Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, and Cadillac... which, since it's in ruthless survival mode, makes us wonder what kind of crush GM has on GMC. GM will release a 10-to-12 page plan to the public making its case and Congress has scheduled a hearing on the matter for December 5th.
In the article, the word "shedding" is used to describe what GM would do with Saturn, Pontiac, and Saab. But we don't know where and how they would shed them. Saturn is a misfit child (not really Saturn's fault), Pontiac is unsure of itself (except when it comes to the G8 triplets and the Solstice), and Saab sold about 33,000 cars in America last year and 125,000 around the world. With the state of lending and credit markets, it would probably be easier to buy a pterodactyl than get a loan to buy one of GM's brands. HUMMER's already been on the block so long it's about to get arrested for loitering. So is "shedding" a euphemism for "bye-bye..."? We'll know soon enough. Thanks to all who tipped in.

I guess if I applied it to real life, it would be like this - you have a job, and another company approaches you and wants to hire you. You have to decide...what are the benefits of staying where you are versus taking that offer? Anyone is welcome to make an offer or at the least, ask if you and offer you the opportunity. And if they have something you want and it's in your best interests, you should go.
If you're in a guild that's not giving you what you want, maybe it's time to move on. Of course, loyalty could, and probably should, be somewhat of a factor, but unless you've signed a contract...it's the cost of running a guild. (If you've signed a contract, move on anyway, at least until they release a patch/expansion with some sort of judicial system.)

South Bend, IN (SportsNetwork.com) - Jerian Grant led all scorers with 26 points and added five assists and three rebounds as No. 21 Notre Dame dispatched Miami-Ohio 74-62 on Friday night.
Tom Knight had 13 points, Pat Connaughton added 11 points, seven rebounds and five assists and Eric Atkins finished with 10 points and six helpers for Notre Dame (1-0).
"When he's shooting like that, you've got to get him the ball," Connaughton said of Grant's hot shooting. "All you have to do is get back on defense."
Garrick Sherman was the only Irish starter held under double-figures in scoring with three points.
Reggie Johnson led the RedHawks (0-1) with 22 points, going 4-of-8 from beyond the arc.
"It was good that we played good against them," Johnson said. "Hopefully we're able to build off of that."
Knight opened the scoring for Notre Dame with a layup 20 seconds into the game. Miami-Ohio's Quinten Rollins answered with a layup but Notre Dame went on a 15-2 run led by Grant's 11 points on 3-of-3 shooting from long range.
The Irish lead grew to as many as 16 in the first half before Miami Ohio tightened things up.
With Notre Dame leading 29-13 at the 7:29 mark, the RedHawks went on a 16-6 run to cut the lead to six, highlighted by a pair of Johnson 3-pointers.
Grant then plucked Johnson with 51 seconds left and soared in for the uncontested dunk to put Notre Dame up 39-29.
Johnson made amends of the turnover, connecting on his third 3-pointer of the half which cut the lead back to seven heading into halftime.
Notre Dame wasted little time getting the lead back to double-digits with the second half beginning similar to the first.
After a Jaryd Eustace jumper to give the Irish their smallest lead since early in the first, Knight made a jump shot and Grant followed a Will Felder free throw with another 3-pointer for a 44-35 lead 2:43 into the final stanza.
Atkins added a free throw to push the lead back to double-digits and Austin Burgett added a 3-pointer with 15:12 left to give the Irish a comfortable 13 point advantage, 48-35.
The RedHawks hung around, but with the Irish up 51-41, Connaughton hit back- to-back triples with just under 10 minutes left to end any hope of a comeback for Miami-Ohio.
Five of Notre Dame's first six buckets in the second half came via the 3- pointer, including four straight.
Miami-Ohio cut the lead back to eight with 6:20 remaining in the game, but Grant hit a jumper and Sherman followed a Johnson miss with an old fashion three-point play.
Felder and Geovonie McKnight each scored 13 points for the RedHawks in the loss.
Notre Dame shot 10-of-21 from beyond the arc compared to 6-of-22 for Miami-
Ohio ... Notre Dame opens the season with six straight at Purcell Pavilion
