There is a persistent rumour that passwords are going to disappear in a couple of years. The idea has been shared in tech circles and in the media for a few years now. I am, to say the least, sceptical of the impending demise of passwords and their cousins: PINs and passphrases. But even if passwords do disappear in the next 5 or 10 years, they haven't gone away yet, so you need to make sure that you have good ones. Some people say that creating good passwords is too hard, and that password rules make it even more confusing. Tony Neate, the UK's Cyber Security Chief, seems to think that we can't expect normal people to create good passwords, but I disagree.
You can create passwords that are both hard to crack and easy for you to remember. In my opinion, the best way to do that is to base your passwords on phrases rather than single words. In many cases, you can just use the full sentence as-is in a passphrase. and give yourself a clever reminder.
Passphrase: That 1 kitten was my best friend.
Hint: I miss Mittens.
Last night, just as I was about to head to bed, I saw this tweet from the UK Cyber Security Challenge:
"the password abc123 is better than nothing" - @bcs and @GetSafeOnline launch new campaign http://t.co/bLho6ET9E5

"the password abc123 is better than nothing" - @bcs and @GetSafeOnline launch new campaign http://t.co/bLho6ET9E5
— CyberSecChallengeUK (@Cyberchallenge) January 20, 2014
My initial response was to yell at my laptop screen. Then I responded in a more measured tone:
You don't have to dumb things down to help people be secure. And false security is none at all.@Cyberchallenge @bcs @GetSafeOnline
I've seen a lot of articles in recent months about how the Cyber Security industry needs more women. What I haven't seen is anything explaining to women why we should want to get into this industry. Programming has seen an influx of women recently with programs aimed at showing how interesting and creative coding can be. That's fantastic! But, with the exception of a few LinkedIn groups aimed at women and a program in Virginia called Cyberjitsu Girls there's just not that much being done to show women why this field is for us. So, why would you, as a woman, want to become a cyber security professional?
Humans aren't just smart. We're technology users. From a certain perspective, technology always saves us. That's pretty much the main thing that separates us from any other animal. Sure, we have more complex speech than any animal we understand, but that might just be because we haven't learned to understand the chemical communications of bees and other insects. In general, the more we learn about other complex life on Earth, the more that we learn that we're not so unique after all. But this one thing, technology, really does set us apart.
Other animals may use tools, but no one goes to the lengths that we do to shape those tools and customize them. Other animals build homes, but none of them use the wide range of techniques and designs that we do.
I've been thinking a lot lately about disaster porn. You know what I'm talking about: all those movies we love where the world is threatened by nature and man, where earthquakes kill thousands, where our plucky heroes face an erupting super volcano and somehow make it out alive. What is it about disaster movies that excite us so much? It's not just the disaster itself. It's the fact that we can watch the stories unfold and reassure ourselves that we are the survivors. No matter what happens in the movie, we'll still be there in the end, and we can imagine that even if we were in the story itself, we'd have been one of the lucky protagonists who faced all the challenges and got to the end with life and limb in tact.
There's another kind of disaster porn that has gotten quite popular recently. The non-fiction sort. It doesn't take much effort to find articles, blogs, documentaries and even entire communities based around the frightening prospects of climate change and ecological destruction. Nearly all of these are focused on trying to find ways to avert the great disaster or preparing those in the know to survive whatever comes their way.

Remember when the ACC tournament was the toughest ticket this side of the Masters? Remember when — Wes Durham just told me this story — North Carolina fans used to contribute to the Alexander-Tharpe Fund at Georgia Tech just to have a way to assure themselves of tournament tickets. (The Carolina allocation was, at the time, significantly more competitive.)
Well, that was then. And this is now. And you could buy ACC tickets on Ticketmaster this week. I know, it's a function of the economy, but still … when the high-falutin' ACC can't sell out in advance, what hope is there for the rest of the sports world?
Not that the first day of any conference tournament, the ACC included, is ever a truly packed house. The big boys don't play on Day 1. (I'm guessing the North Carolina and Duke teams aren't even in town yet.) But this afternoon session of Day 1 has the chance to be slim pickings. (Not to be confused with Slim Pickens, the greatest of American actors.) Miami and Virginia Tech don't travel well, at least not for this sport, and Georgia Tech couldn't fill the Thrillerdome this season. So I'd assume the Dome folks are praying for a big caravan of Clemson folks headed down I-85.
I'll be blogging live all day, which could well drive down attendance on AJC.com, but what the heck. I'll also be conducting the first stages of a grand experiment: I have been issued a BlackBerry Storm and asked to shoot photos and (gasp) even video. "Have fun with it," the brass told me, and I believe those were the same words Mrs. O'Leary had for her cow Flossie when she sent her to the garage.
So let me know what you think. And if anyone has any BlackBerry tips, I'd love to hear those, too. The day began with me having locked the touch screen, whereupon I employed the time-honored scientific method: I removed the battery and re-started the thing.
Miami and VPI (as us old folks used to call Va. Tech) are about to tip. Tech and the Tigers should get going around 2:30. Stick around, won't you?
I just saw Jason Capel, who played for North Carolina and who works for Raycom now. I asked him if his brother Jeff is coming to coach Georgia. He said he didn't think so. Jason said he has heard the numbers being thrown around — Georgia is said to be willing to pay $2 million per season, which is more than twice what Dennis Felton was making — but also said he didn't think Oklahoma would let Jeff Capel leave.
For the record, neither do I.
Virginia Tech leads Miami 28-24. The 'Canes made a little run late — Jack McClinton actually hit a three-pointer, his one and only — and more than halved their deficit. But I can't see the U taking this one. VPI is a better team.
Then again, I'm occasionally wrong.
I'm told by someone who should know that the ACC doesn't plan to sell tickets for individual sessions at the box office. (You have to buy a tournament set.) But stay tuned. That could change.
I just saw Tech AD Dan Radakovich and his aide-de-camp Wayne Hogan in the hall, and we agreed this wasn't the year to bring the tournament to a 40,000-seat venue. Then again, that decision was made years ago. As Radakovich said: "If someone could have predicted back in 2005 that the economy would do what it has, we'd all have kept our money under our mattresses."
The Jackets are tied with Clemson at 39 and have made 51.6 percent of their shots. Clinch has 15 of the 39. Rebounds are even. This is a winnable game for Tech, which I kind of thought it would be. Please follow along on the live blog below in the comments section. We're having so much fun!
If you haven't been following along in the live blog — and if not, why not? — Tech beat Clemson 86-81. Lewis Clinch had a career-best 32 points. Moe Miller was terrific running the team. Gani Lawal outplayed Trevor Booker underneath. The Jackets have now won half as many games in the ACC tournament as they did in the 16-game conference season. Sounds a little like Georgia last year, doesn't it?
Tech publicist Mike (Moose) Stamus just walked over and said, "We moved our baseball game up 2 1/2 hours tomorrow — there's a threat of thunderstorms."
Despite falling on my backside in the attempt to get a blurry post-it-yourself photo (read about it below), I'll be back to blog live again tomorrow. We'll start around noon, and we'll keep going until Tech beats Florida State in the second afternoon game. (Wait a second! Did I just say that? Yes, I did!)
Thanks to one and all who visited and contributed today, and we'll keep going a little while longer.

Excellent photo, Mark. Think it's no cruder than your columns. If you were to buy a ticket to the games this weekend, where would you want to sit?
March 12th, 2009
12:14 pm
Dear Mr. MB–thanks for letting me know about the ticket availability, but I can't go. I have some other things I need to do. Your pal, Leland

Keep the Slim Pickens references coming! MB, have you contemplated embarking on a Jim Rome-like "Slim streak", wherein you might reference Mr. Pickens in 20 consecutive columns?

12:29 pm
The ACC Tournament should always be held in NC. NC is central to the ACC. NC loves good basketball and locals will continue to support the tournament even when their team loses out. In NC the ACC Tournament would be a sell out every year. Keep it in NC and it will again be the hardest ticket to obtain outside the Masters.
March 12th, 2009
12:33 pm
Have the tournament in the state of NC. NC rules college basketball. (NC, Duke, WF, all top-10)
March 12th, 2009
12:39 pm
So if I want to go to tomorrow's session, I need to buy the tix today?
March 12th, 2009
12:42 pm
For those of you saying that NC will sell out every year, you have to remember that whether it is held in Greensboro or Charlotte, it is in a 20,000 seat arena. The GA Dome is 46,000(?). I believe that they've sold 20,000 seats. It is all relative.
March 12th, 2009
12:45 pm
Sell individual game tickets and the ACC might get butts in the seats. As Clemson Alumi living in Atlanta, my wife and I can't come up with the scratch for 2 tourney books. We'd be there if they sold single game tickets though.
March 12th, 2009
12:59 pm
Anybody blogging the SEC tourney today? Or is the SEC so bad this year that it does not warrant coverage? Tech fans: Good luck throughout the tourney from a UGA fan.
March 12th, 2009
1:06 pm
I have a hard time believing the ACC isn't going to put single session tickets on sale. I think a lot of people would be down there in a heartbeat. Like others say, 2 tourney books is a ton of money. I'm just interested in coming down for a session, and I figure I can find tickets on the street or on Craigslist at face or less.
March 12th, 2009
1:08 pm
Mark, probably a dumb question from what i've seen of GT crowds this season, but are you expecting a big GT crowd for the game today? GO TIGERS!!!
March 12th, 2009
1:22 pm
might help if i read the article above.
March 12th, 2009
1:46 pm
I don't get why the ACC would rather have 20K fans in an arena that seats 46K, than have 20K fans in a sold-out arena that seats 20K. Why? I don't understand it. ACC tournament should be in Greensboro at the Coliseum, every year, period.
March 12th, 2009
1:51 pm
Yeah, the price for the ticket book for the whole weekend was ridiculous. The ACC swung and miss with their ticket selling/pricing policy for this one. I wanted to go but thought the price of the book was ridiculous. Now I'm just skipping out on the whole weekend unless I can get some single session seats.
March 12th, 2009
1:52 pm
Wish Charleston, SC had a bigger arena to host the ACC and/or NCAA tourney (like the NAACP would let it happen anyway). I like the tourney being in Greensboro, but there is nothing to do there. At least Atlanta and Washington provide stuff to do when the games aren't going on.
March 12th, 2009
2:04 pm
65-47 VT. Clemson next…GO TIGERS!
March 12th, 2009
2:14 pm
Guy here at work bought his Clemson tix on Stub Hub. Seems the NC peeps buy books for both sessions, then sell the tickets to the games they don't want to attend. So he was able to buy the tickets he wanted for short money. Even with fees, he only dropped $17 per ticket for each game. Good seats, too.

Wear dude… wear. Here's to Tech giving something for fans to smile about. Surely they can't lose three to Klimp's Son, but you can bet I'll call them all Shirly if they do.

As per ur question about Lewis….he was studying too hard.
March 12th, 2009
2:33 pm
Well, if GT can hang on to the ball and not turn it over, then they may have a chance. Mark, how about counting the turnovers for us, so we will know whether or not to stay until the end of the game…..I'm not sure I can watch another one when they keep turning the ball over. Let's hope Lewis knew what he was talking about yesterday…
March 12th, 2009

Mark – The reason is two words….Paul Hewitt. Go Jackets.

Mark, any truth to the rumor that Corey Feldman is going to perform a halftime show? Don't hold out on us.

The best way to meet womenYour dog can be a great conversation starter.
Man's best wingman: Walking your dog is one of the top five ways to meet new people, according to a recent Australian study.
More from MSN Living: In the mood for love? Signs that point to 'yes'
The research doesn't just apply to making friends. Dog walking gives guys an opportunity to show their kinder, gentler side, says Pepper Schwartz, Ph.D., chief relationship expert for PerfectMatch.com.
But since a woman will usually compliment your pup or ask to pet him then walk away, you have about 3 second to grab her attention, Schwartz says. "She's drawn to the dog, but she may or may not be drawn to you. You have to seize the opportunity for conversation rather quickly."
Your next move: If she plays with Fido and he loves the attention, point out his opinion of her and offer your own compliment, Schwartz says. Or if she's also with a four-legged friend, suggest both pooches pal around together.
You have an even better chance of catching her eye if you have a German shepherd, Labrador retriever, golden retriever, Siberian husky, or French bulldog. Women are most attracted to men who own any of those breeds, according to a 2012 survey.
Bing: Most popular dogs in America
If you don't need to use your dog as a chick magnet, that's no reason to stop your neighborhood loops. Recent research from New Zealand found that walking the dog boosts your well-being, and in a 2011 study from Michigan State University, dog walkers were 34 percent more likely to reach federal exercise benchmarks than people without pets.

Served this for a family get together and everyone LOVED it! I am not a Ham fan but I really enjoyed this.
Blackberry-Mustard Glazed Ham
designeclectic Posted: 11/23/08
dasharks Posted: 02/22/09
Fantasic special ocassion ham - easy to make, also can be adapted to sugar-limited diets using sugarfree jam. Excellent!
onegr8smile Posted: 04/24/11
I have made this recipe several times and have never been disappointed! Consistent basting really makes this ham wonderful!
love2coooook Posted: 12/27/11
WoW! My hubby always brags about my cooking, but everyhting I make is just "good"....nothing more to say than it was good and "I'd eat it again"...this however, got rave reviews! He's still talking about it and I made it for Xmas Eve dinner! This was my first time making a ham like this and I have to say I'd pick this anyday over a turkey...soooo good and you CAN'T mess it up! I'm not even a huge ham fan and loved it!
substance Posted: 12/23/12
This was good, but not something I had to make myself stop eating, which is a must for 5 stars. Used all fruit seedless jam, though many jams vary drastically in flavor, so perhaps there is a better one for this application. I still like the idea of blackberry and mustard, so I'm thinking I'll try replacing the apple juice with tangerine and a bit of honey, and adding rosemary. Also may try throwing blackberries in the juicer and sweetening myself rather than using jam, because the mixture was too thick. Hard to baste and tended to cake up and over-caramelize rather than glaze the ham. All of that would make it more work, but this really needed some added complexity for me. Good potential though.
bkbroiler52 Posted: 04/13/13
I made it for Easter this year (2013). Everybody loved it.

In addition to eliminating that hassle, patch bays save wear and tear on the jacks of your equipment. Audio patch bays are switchboards for rerouting audio signals; there are also MIDI patch bays for—you guessed it—rerouting MIDI signals.

Ibanez JEM77FP2 Steve Vai Signature: A Sublime Shredder's Axe
The Ibanez JEM series has its roots in an intimate collaboration with master shredder Steve Vai that goes back to 1986. Vai specified every aspect of his signature model from aesthetics and playability factors to perhaps most crucially, the pickup array, electronics and trem bridge. Remaining largely unchanged since the initial model was unveiled at NAMM in 1987, variations have mainly focused on pickup and bridge choices, dependant on the price points of subsequent sub-models.

Hands-On Review: Line 6 Sonic Port VX Audio Interface
By Chris Loeffler
Harmony Central Associate Editor
Line 6 has been in the game of pushing the boundaries of what a guitar player can do with digital technology by marrying a reverence for classic tones and "the way things used to be" with a desire to break through the limitations imposed by "traditional" gear. Having built and maintained their reputation as the industry leader in affordable guitar, amp, and effect modelling almost two decades ago, Line 6 has been conspicuously turning their focus on integrating the guitar experience into consumer-focused devices and tapping in to the rich ecosystem of mobile devices, tablets, and laptops. The Line 6 Sonic Port VX is their latest foray into this world and features a price-point, feature set, and ease of use that's sure to raise eyebrows.

The nurturing kind
Activist Royale Theus finds meaning in giving back
By Desiree Cooper
Originally printed 2/9/2012 (Issue 2006 - Between The Lines News)
DETROIT LGBT LEADER: ROYALE THEUS from Model D TV on Vimeo.
When he was only 20-years-old, Detroit native Royale Theus discovered he was going to be a father. It wasn't exactly what he had planned for his future.
"I had my son with my best friend," said Theus, who is gay. "Life happens."
For Theus, now 30, life has been a series of curveballs. His parents divorced when he was only two. When he was five, he was sexually abused by a relative. It took him three years to tell his mother.
"It was so hurtful for her," said Theus, the director of programs for the Michigan AIDS Coalition, a Ferndale-based organization that promotes the health and well being of the HIV/AIDS community. "She always told me that it wasn't my fault and that she still loved me."
Theus's father, however, was an abusive alcoholic who was in and out of Theus's life after the divorce.
"When I was a kid, I thought he was a hero - he had a big car, nice clothes and worked at Ford," said Theus. "But he'd only want to come over when he was intoxicated."
By the time Theus turned 18, he was eager to get out into the world and experience life. He worked at FOCUS:Hope and then with the Detroit Health Department doing HIV testing and counseling in a mobile unit. He'd barely established himself when he discovered he was going to be a father.
But instead of throwing him into a tailspin, fatherhood was a wake-up call.
"Having a son saved my life," said Theus, whose son is now 11. "He was my 'Stay Out of Jail' card. I knew there was someone depending on me."
Gay fatherhood
Taking care of others seems to bring out the best in Theus.
"I was raised by a strong, independent, hardworking woman," he said of his mother, who joined the Army Reserve and earned a nursing degree as a single parent. In 1985, he watched as his mother took care of his grandmother until she died of breast cancer in 1990.
It's his mother's nurturing influence that Theus brings to his relationship with his son.
"I hug him, I kiss him," said Theus, who is fully engaged in his son's life. "I show more emotion and affection than my father showed."
Despite his comfort with his role as a father, he's not so comfortable with his role as a gay father. Theus has yet to broach the topic of his sexuality with his son, a shy kid who is a car fanatic.
"I'm waiting until he's older," said Theus. "He's mentioned that someone called another classmate 'gay.' I asked him what that meant and he didn't know."
But there's a hesitation in Theus's voice, as if he is still coming to terms with his own sexuality. "I am struggling with it," he acknowledged. "The more comfortable that I can be with who I am, the easier it will be for me to talk to my son about it. Being gay is not easy."
There are at least 650,000 same-sex couples in the United States, and one in five of them are raising children, according to Gary Gates, a demographer at the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation Law and Public Policy. Much less is known about the number of gay or lesbian single parents.
"LGBTQ parents face the issues that other parents don't face," Theus said. "They have to deal with outsiders who do not believe that gays can be parents. And they have to deal with their own children not accepting them because of what other children may say."
There's also guilt associated with "adding another dimension of challenge to your own child's life," said Theus, who graduated from Mumford High School in 1999. "My son needs to know about different sexual orientations so that he can be tolerant. But right now, I'm just dealing with class work and girlfriends. I don't want to put my sexuality on him now."
Living to give
Sheltered in the apostolic church, Theus never talked to anyone about sexuality growing up--especially not homosexuality.
"Back then, I questioned God, 'Why me?'" said Theus, who did everything for the church from driving the bus, to singing in the choir and cleaning after events. "I was afraid to talk to anyone about the feelings I was having for men. They preached to me that everything I was feeling was wrong."
In high school, he came out to his mother and became an activist. As a member of an African American LGBT health organization, he went to Detroit's Palmer Park to pass out health information. After graduation, he eventually landed a job in the Detroit Health Department's HIV mobile testing unit, bringing healthcare services to soup kitchens, methadone clinics and distressed neighborhoods.
"That was a whole new world for me," he said. "I liked helping people with diverse needs."
By the time he joined the Michigan AIDS Coalition in 2004, the questions he'd asked of God as a young man were finally being answered.
"Whenever I share with people their HIV status and help them go through the process of dealing with the diagnosis -- from the medical regimen, to attending their first doctor's appointments, to providing them food out of my freezer and clothes if they need it -- I understand why I'm here," Theus said. "This is why I had to go through what I had to go through."
By the age of 25, Theus was the program director at the Michigan AIDS Coalition.
"I have to thank Craig Covey who started this organization for giving me a chance to demonstrate leadership," he said. "Whatever they needed, I was efficient and dependable. That's from my mother: No matter what you're doing, always do your best."
The demands of family
Now he is living out another lesson he learned watching his mother nurse his grandmother: Honor thy mother and father.
"In 2005, my mother was in a head-on collision when she was driving to church," he said. "She survived, but she was diagnosed with dementia and a serious brain injury."
So in addition to raising a son, he is the sole caretaker of his 62-year-old mother.
A year ago, his father was incarcerated for a violent crime -- at 90 years old. Diagnosed with dementia, his father served time in jail and was released into Theus's custody. Now he is also his dad's legal guardian.
It's a crushing responsibility, but Theus, takes his family demands in stride. "I see this as being normal," said Theus, who is pursuing a bachelor's degree in human services from the University of Phoenix. "This is what I should be doing and I'm blessed to be able to do it. To those who much is given, much is required."

Those moments..
Where that one person looks at you with those big eyes, smiling without noticing. Where through their eyes you can read their mind. All you want to do is hug them and feel what it's like to feel wanted and appreciated. Just the simple knowledge of knowing there's possible hope. That right there, is what I urge.

Food Poisoning Health Center
Death Toll Rises From Listeria in Cantaloupes
4 Known Deaths, 3 More Suspected From Listeria-Contaminated Cantaloupes
WebMD News Archive
How to Avoid Listeria
As contaminated cantaloupes may still be in grocery stores or in people's homes, the CDC has issued this advice:
- People at high risk for listeriosis, including older adults, people with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women, should not eat cantaloupes marketed as coming from the Rocky Ford region of Colorado.
- People who have cantaloupes in their homes can check the label or inquire at the store where they purchased it to determine if the fruit was marketed as coming from the Rocky Ford region of Colorado.
- Listeriosis primarily affects older adults, people with weakened immune systems, pregnant women, and newborns. People who think they might have become ill from eating possibly contaminated cantaloupes should consult their doctor immediately.
- Cantaloupes marketed as coming from the Rocky Ford region should be disposed of in a closed plastic bag placed in a sealed trash can. This will prevent people or animals from eating them.
As other foods besides cantaloupes can carry listeria, the CDC recommends these general steps to avoid listeriosis:
- Rinse raw produce, such as fruits and vegetables, thoroughly under running tap water before eating. Dry the produce with a clean cloth or paper towel before cutting them up.
- Thoroughly cook raw meat and poultry.
- Heat hot dogs, deli meats, and cold cuts until they are steaming hot just before serving.
- Do not drink raw (unpasteurized) milk and do not eat fresh, soft cheeses that have unpasteurized milk in them, especially Mexican-style cheeses like queso fresco.
- Be sure that your refrigerator is at or below 40 degrees F and your freezer is at or below 0 degrees F by using a refrigerator thermometer.

Review of Bellingham Workplace Raid is Encouraging Sign of Intelligent Approach to Immigration by Obama Administration
February 26, 2009
Washington, DC – On Tuesday, ICE agents raided a workplace in Bellingham Washington. On Wednesday, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano was questioned about the raid by Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) while Napolitano testified before the House Homeland Security Committee. Later Wednesday, Secretary Napolitano announced her office would conduct a review of how and why the raid was conducted. The following is a statement by Ali Noorani, Executive Director of the National Immigration Forum, a non-partisan pro-immigrant advocacy organization in Washington.
We are pleased Secretary Napolitano acted quickly to call for an investigation and that the White House made clear that workplace raids are inconsistent with the Obama Administration's broader approach to immigration and enforcement oversight. Clearly, the voices of Americans across the country calling for sensible immigration reform are starting to be heard.
Rep. Lofgren's questions for the Secretary about the raid were right on target. In expressing her concerns, Rep Lofgren underscored the fact that in a number of previous raids, basic due process and civil rights have been denied to U.S. citizens as well as immigrants detained by ICE, just one of the serious problems associated with workplace raids.
The previous Administration gave the green light for bigger and bigger raids with maximum force, minimum due process of law, and broad use of criminal charges to prosecute immigrant workers. This has been mirrored and amplified in many cases by local authorities engaging in immigrant-related enforcement across the country. All the while, little attention was paid to prosecuting employers who violated immigration and labor laws and even less to oversight, review, and accountability up the command chain to the Secretary in Washington. The review announced by Secretary Napolitano and the broader review of enforcement and resources her agency is undertaking cannot come too quickly.
From their reaction to the Bellingham episode, it is clear the Obama Administration understands there is a need for enforcement, but a need to make sure enforcement is conducted properly and in a manner consistent with core values of fairness and due process.
As we have seen for two decades, enforcement alone will not address the problems with our current immigration system. That is why we continue to call on the President, his Cabinet, and leaders in both parties in Congress to quickly get about the business of reform and giving America an immigration system that we can be proud of.

Before I moved to New York, the land where everybody lives in dimly-lit walk-ups, I lived in Los Angeles. And apartments in L.A. are much different than those in NYC, in that they make you much more exposed to your neighbors.
I've been in the building I live in now for over a year -- there are neighbors I've seen maybe three times. Seriously. And the only reason I found out that the couple on the first floor moved -- three weeks ago -- is because I just saw somebody new moving in. It's great.
All places aren't like this, though. Like I said, Los Angeles, completely different. When I sneezed, my entire complex would say "bless you" in unison to me. It was awful. Because when you get friendly with neighbors, bad things and awkward situations are bound to happen.
After watching the hilarious video from CafeMom Studios featuring JoAnn from Bensonhurst, I now realize that I made a cardinal mistake when I lived in Los Angeles -- I got to know my neighbors in the first place.
Now, I never had to deal with pooping dogs or female tenants wanting to borrow my husband, but I did have to deal with super loud music at crazy hours of the night, among other things -- obnoxious park jobs, trash in the corridors, etc. And because I was friends -- or friendly -- with these people in the first place, it made things all the more awkward (AKA, I was too chicken to say anything, so I had to just live in squalor with nary a parking spot within a five-mile radius of my house). If I would have just minded my own business to begin with -- and not gone over for a beer that one time -- things would have been so much easier. Thanks, JoAnn.
For more useful advice -- with a side of sass -- check out JoAnn's video series on CafeMom Studios YouTube channel. A new episode airs every Monday, but do yourself a favor and subscribe in case you forget.
Are you friendly with your neighbors? What's the worst situation you've ever been in with a neighbor?
Image via CafeMomStudios/YouTube
My husband got a bit too friendly with our tenants (we live where we rent out)and now its so hard to do my part. When I say something i look like the "bi***", when my husband says something he looks like a two faced hypocrite. I blame it all on my husband.
Our neighbors aren't so bad.
I thinks its good to know your neighbors, but not necessarily be friends with them. I like knowing what kind of people I live next to.
I don't know my neighbors too well, but from the amount of cops showing up at their houses, I probably don't want to. I think the only association I had with my neighbor to the east is calling the cops when someone tried to break into their house.

Confirmed: Air Jordan 4 Doernbecher
Today TSG can confirm the Air Jordan 4 DB. Yes, we said confirmed! Let the speculation and rumors end. The 2011 Doernbecher Jordan shoe is the Air Jordan 4. As you know, the Doernbecher Freestyle Air Jordan is designed by a child from the Doernbecher Children's Hospital, and the concept is always very creative. You'll have to wait a little longer for photos to surface, so stay tuned to TSG for additional info.
Note: The above image is not the actual DB Air Jordan 4.

Gonna wait to see what it is, but usually they are pretty decent, and being that i love the 4s, i'll probably cop
i was about to say…all whites? havent we done this already? just the template i get it. CANT WAIT!
Add 3M, cement print, and clear sole.. i have a feeling the kids arent designing these anymore……
I can't wait to see what these look like. The last couple pairs have been pretty dope, so hopefully these will also nice.
G-Roc, do you know when a release date for these will be?
The first pair of Doern's I will buy. Consider these copped.
i always look forward to these its the one thing that i really congragulate JB on, deff will cop for the cause if the money is right
still need the Doernbecher 3′s, may have to grab these too
I'm all for a great cause, but the 3z were HORRIBLE! hopefully the 4z are a better look….only time will tell.
Gotta cop!!
I havent liked a single DB release as far as what I would wear…I love what the shoe is about, so I would love to see something I would copp
@GROC – yeah i know they get assistance from designers, but based on the 3s i think the kids probably pick the colors lol i only say that bc based on other DB models the Jordan versions are just too farfetched for little children. Its a good cause, i chose to support TOMS.
been savin my money for an ipad 2 then this gets confirmed dang.this should b hot..lucky i found this link tho….http://goo.gl/YGhOi
Wow….another long night in the cold…..again. Hopefully the line up will be like last year at Lenox.
Support the cause. Most likely, I won't copp but I'll still donate.
This will be 2nd DB if they get it close to right… So far no other model has surpassed the VI's…
I hope it's pink with a bunch of penis' all over the shoe. That'd be funny
The 3 is amazing. Can't wait for the 4
Yeah… I'm proly gonna cop not matter what these look like…. Have a feeling they're gonna be dope tho
Great Googley Moogley! Hot Diggity Dog! Trick a Treat Smell My Feet! Nick Nack Paddy Whack! One Fish To Fish! Ooooooweeeeeeeee! Sign Me Up Boss!
its hard to mess up the 4′s. There's nothing they could do design wise that would stop me 4rm copping. 3rd best J's in my opinion.
^^any shoe can be messed up……in fact it's alot harder to accept a "classic" shoe being completely destroyed by bad color/material/theme choices when retro'd vice a shoe nobody cares about. A orange polka dot covered 4 with pink furry lining and checkerboard laces would make it into your closet?
I hope whatever lucky kid gets to design these asks the kid who did the III's for some creative help…..that kid KILLED IT.
Id love to see them done in a dark denim
@that guy, your reading my mind. No lie, I had a dream that jb put on display jordans 1-23 in alternate summer materials like canvas 3′s & denim 4′ & 5′s. The 4′s had a dark blue denim was & lable on the tounge was like the leather label on the back of jeans with the jumpman & flight logo branded in to it. The side straps were leather like belt material.
You guys saying you'd cop em no matter what they look like are INSANE.
Not hot is NOT HOT.
All see-thru IV's with booger green laces?
All over print pictures of bad teeth with a gold tooth lacelock and used dental floss laces?
Purple patent leather upper, yellow midsole, orange outsole, green air bag, shiny silver laces and red furry lining……YOU STILL COPPIN' EM??
If they suck, THEY SUCK, wether it's a IV or not. God only knows what the guy/girl's gonna wanna slap on a "shoe"……let's hope they don't make em too crazy….
Cant wait to see how they turn out. Hopefully they keep it simple.
They look exactly like the pure money's, can anyone tell me the difference between them besides the name?
I really don't like 4′s but I been supporting DB for the last 3 year now! "I must copp". I hope nike town pass out bands this year.
LMFAO @TokyoMike!! you're a trip bro!! but you speak the truth…hopefully they will turn out very good, im anxious to see what the little fella has in store for them
Aiight… Aiight TM… U have a very valid point….lol…. Buuuut so far no JB doernbecher has ever not been some what dope…
i got from another website these are releasing in the holidays of 2011 so im guessing that means between halloween and new years.
i wish these were easier to get. i wouldn't mind paying more for jordans, especially when 100% ( i hear) of the proceeds is donated to the hosipital. don't even care that 'nike air' isn't on the heel.

There is never a dull moment with the group of siblings on this week's Wednesday's Child. They range in age from 1 to 11. The four boys were willing to talk with us , but their 11 year old sister did not want to be featured. They want to be everything from police officers to race car drivers and they want to do it all together as a family.
They have non-stop energy, are always looking for a new adventure and their baby brother always tries to keep up.
Kevin is 9 years old, Keshun is 7, Quindarius is 5 and Trayvion is 1 year old.
"Do you have a favorite sport? Yes. What is it? Football. What is your favorite football team? I've got two favorite teams. The Steelers and the Saints", said Kevin.
"I like to play with toys. What kind of toys? What kind of toys? Race cars", Keshun said.
Kevin looks out for his little brothers. He says he does not have a favorite subject but enjoys spending time with his classmates.
"What do you like to do in science? Learn about stuff and nature. So you like birds and.. Um hum…Do you put worms in your pocket? No. Very good. Spiders", said Kevin.
Keshun says he likes being with his siblings and he says most of the time they get along.
"You want to be a race car driver? Yes. What color do you want your race car to be? Black and yellow", Keshun said.
Quindarius did not want to talk on camera, but he had plenty to say once he was able to hit the slides, and play basketball at Pump It Up in Flowood.
Trayvion is the baby and is quick to smile and wants to try almost everything his big brothers do. He is full of energy. He has learned to form one to three words, and also feeds himself without assistance.
Adoption workers say the boys would benefit from a two parent family who is patient, fun loving, and willing to devote time to all five children.
To learn more about adoption through the Department of Human Services, call the Mississippi Adoption Resource Exchange at 1-800-821-9157.

Many believe that Texas A&M Aggies star quarterback Johnny Manziel has played in his final home game at Kyle Field as he prepares to enter the 2014 NFL Draft, but there are still a few games left for Manziel to play before announcing his decision.
The full expectation is that Manziel will forego his final years of eligibility to go pro, and it looks like we can expect an official announcement before the Aggies play in their bowl game.
Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlin spoke to the media on Friday, where he acknowledged Manziel's decision will be coming before Texas A&M suits up for their final appearance of the season.
"We haven't had that conversation," Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin said ESPN Radio's SVP & Russillo, via Pro Football Talk. "My job is to get him all the facts that we can get him. We'll have that discussion after the Missouri game, certainly during the bowl preparation. I'm sure the announcement will be made at that time.
"He's handled things on the field as well as any player in the country. His numbers are better than they were last year. And I've had a number of people tell me there's no more exciting college football player in the country than he is, and he's the guy they like to watch.
"He's a special talent. His energy, his leadership on the team is evident, and he continues to get better every week."
If Manziel decides to stay in College Station, it would be a complete shock, but Johnny Football has always thrived on being unpredictable.
Once Manziel makes his decision on whether to stay in college or go pro, the next thing that Aggies fans will need to worry about is whether Sumlin will be returning or bolting for the pros.

Hustling is not just an option for Ty'Lyn Byas when it comes to sports.
It's a certainty.
You see, that's just the way Byas was wired while growing up in Springfield, which he described as "just kind of a nice, quiet, country place."
"I always tried my hardest (while playing sports) because I just wanted to score some touchdowns and make some plays," Byas said. "I always dreamed of scoring the game-winning touchdown or watching the ball going through the net when you hit that big shot."
With the Washington County Commander baseball team coming off of a disappointing 16-17 season last year, head coach Derek Schuler has high hopes that his team can turn the corner and he can guide his ball club to a winning record.
To do so, Schuler first must find a way to replace the experience that the Commanders lost on the pitching mound. Last season, his team relied heavily on Thomas Spaulding and Will Begley in this department, both of whom graduated last May.
For Washington County's softball head coach Paul Coulter, the key to his team's success this season will be the playing experience that the Commanderettes bring to the table.
They return four seniors who have received significant playing time in the past — Hannah Coulter, Olivia Goatley, Maddie Abell and Mercedes Cowherd — and bring in Kari Creech, who transferred in this season from Letcher County where she was a two-year starter.
Eleven days.
Eleven days is the only thing standing between America and the official beginning of the greatest spectacle in sports: the aptly named March Madness.
When the brackets are officially finalized and announced on Selection Sunday, the talking heads will fill the next few days' airwaves with the blithering over-analysis of how Arkansas was snubbed and North Carolina was seeded too high, how Virginia isn't getting any respect and how Wichita State is getting too much.
The WC Commanders played their final game of the season last week, but assistant coach Paul Howard couldn't fault his team's effort against the Nelson County Cardinals.
With WC down by five at the half and tied at 48 at the end of the third quarter, Howard's confidence in pulling the game out with a win began to steadily grow stronger.
However, after being outscored 27-10 in the fourth quarter, the Commanders were unable to extend their season another game, losing by a score of 75-58.
After dropping their season opening series to the Grenadiers, the St. Catharine Lady Patriots (4-2, 4-0 MSC) bounced back in sweeping fashion in their first conference weekend.
If scoring runs had ever been a concern for Head Coach Holly Smith prior to the season beginning, she breathed a sigh of relief when the visiting Pikeville Bears (0-2, 0-2 MSC) and Bluefield Rams (0-4, 0-4 MSC) invaded Salt River Electric Field.
The 2013-2014 season ended last Tuesday night for the WC Commanderettes with a 68-46 loss to the Nelson County Lady Cardinals in the District 19 Tournament.
The No. 1-seeded Cardinals, who would go on to win the district championship, had been a tough matchup for the Commanderettes all season, something WC Head Coach Bernard Smalley knew going into the contest.
At 6 feet 2 inches tall, Jennifer Keene is used to being the biggest player on the basketball court.
She often finds herself posting up against smaller players, and when facing this type of height disparity, Keene knows there is only one logical course of action: use her tall stature as a clear-cut benefit.
"I just feel like it's important to show my strength and ability," Keene said. "Some taller players that play ball don't use their height advantage, but me being as big as I am, I feel like I need to be aggressive."
Finding the younger version of Sean Lewis was never difficult. If he wasn't playing basketball, he was most likely playing football in the backyard.
And if those two options failed, it would be wise to see if he was sitting in front of his video game system, playing something sports-related to be sure.
Young Sean Lewis was not hard to figure out. He just loved sports.
The same could be said of Lewis today.
Depending on the season, Lewis could be at football practice, basketball practice or in the weight room.
The St. Catharine big men came through in a big way on Thursday night, as the Patriots (17-9, 10-6 MSC) outlasted the Campbellsville Tigers (14-11, 9-7 MSC) 99-92 in three overtimes.
With a front line of 6-feet-8-inches and 6-feet-6-inches, the Patriots don't stray far from the norm for frontcourts in college basketball.
On Thursday night, however, the combination of Raymon Austin (Cleveland, Ohio) and William Tolefree (Stone Mountain, Ga.) played as if they were larger than life, combining for 61 of the Patriots' 99 total points.

In the most comprehensive study ever rendered about the Return on Investment (ROI) of beef checkoff assessments, Harry Kaiser of Cornell University concludes that each dollar invested in the Beef Checkoff Program between 2006 and 2013 returned about $11.20 to the beef industry.
"The news for beef checkoff investors couldn't be better," said Kaiser, the Gellert Family professor of applied economics and management at Cornell and director of the Cornell Commodity Promotion Research Program, who is sharing study results this week at the 2014 Cattle Industry Summer Conference.
"It is clear to me that activities funded through the Beef Board budget have a substantial impact on beef demand in the U.S. and in foreign markets. The return on producers' and importers investments into this program is vastly greater than the cost of the program."
Commissioned through the checkoff's Joint Evaluation Committee, this new ROI study could be a useful tool for producers who make decisions about how to invest checkoff dollars.
"This really tells us that we're on the right track with how we plan our checkoff programs," said cattleman Ted Greidanus of California, who chairs the checkoff's Evaluation Committee. "We are accountable to beef producers and importers who fund the work we do with checkoff dollars, so we wanted to know how much difference we were really making in the marketplace, good or bad -- and I must say that I am quite pleased at how good the news really is."
Some additional key findings in Kaiser's benefits-cost analysis include:
Given the tremendous budget challenges of the checkoff in recent years, the Cattlemen's Beef Board commissioned the all-encompassing study to provide a more thorough evaluation possible of checkoff activities than it traditionally has. As a result, this new study presents a more complete and accurate picture of checkoff returns and provides a new benchmark.
"Let me caution against trying to compare the results of this study with the 2009 study, which reported a return of $5.55 on each checkoff dollar," Kaiser said. "This time around, the Beef Board asked for a more comprehensive study than ever before, so I evaluated all commercial beef disappearance, including retail, foodservice, and international data over eight years, whereas the 2009 study looked solely at domestic retail data for a five-year period.
"Furthermore," Kaiser continued, "my study analyzed individual categories of nine marketing categories separately, and then brought the categories together to identify an overall beef checkoff return on investment. In 2009, the Beef Board commissioned a study analyzing only the checkoff as a whole."
Greidanus said he is quite confident in the study results.
"As chairman of the Evaluation Committee, I know that Kaiser's research methods are well-respected, so we are very confident about the analysis and very pleased with the results," Greidanus said. "And this tells us that the benefits of all CBB programs are 11.2 times more valuable than their costs… As a cattleman who pays into the program, it's invigorating to know that my investment is making a difference."
Kaiser, who has performed similar analyses for other checkoff programs, said the results should be encouraging to the country's beef producers and importers.

The Audience has to be pampered as immature spoiled brats who will throw a temper-tantrum. Or worse!
The writers are not stupid; they know what the audience (and its government) want to hear, and even more importantly, what they DON'T want to hear. What defines this trope is that it flatters the audience or demonizes its enemies by either being Very Loosely Based on a True Story, or Based on a Great Big Lie. Results are the Audience loves it, even after they find out it's not true, or even because it's not true, but still manages to insult some other group. Just about every old war movie, cowboys and indians Westerns, etc. Surprisingly, still sells like snake oil. Applies to any truth that will get the authors burnt at the stake rather than paid; forms the rotten core of the narrative, and strategically undermines Suspension of Disbelief, even if it works as a tactic See also: Awful Truth, Heel Realization, Broken Masquerade, Pandering to the Base

Once again we played in the AEMA Golf Tournament at Indian Wells Golf Course in Palm Springs, CA. In addition to spectacular mountain views, this Celebrity Course features rolling fairways, and flowing water in the form of streams, brooks, and split-level lakes connected by striking waterfalls surrounded by beautiful flowers and landscape. From start to finish, the Celebrity Course offers an unmatched golf.
The weather was absolutely perfect that day. We were paired with a couple who were beginning golfers. A best ball tournament is so much fun for beginners. It takes the stress away and allows for tons of fun. We finished in the middle of the pack which we felt okay about. I, however, won women's closest to the pin. The pin placement was behind a tall bunker with little room to run. It's super fun when you hit a good tee shot when it counts. I've won this before but with an ugly but effective shot. Pretty shots are so much better.
We always enjoy this tournament seeing people we only see once a year, but have been seeing for over 20 years. Our golf ball collection from these trips is fun to look at and add to every year when we get home.
Memories is what collecting is all about.

Western Digital may be one of the largest, and perhaps most popular hard drive manufacturers on this planet, but that doesn't mean the company is sitting back and resting on their laurels. Nope, they're continuously innovating and packing more punch (as in storage) into a smaller box. Case in point you ask? The My Passport 2 TB portable hard drive My Passport.
Yes, 2 TB and it boasts a footprint no larger than, well, a US passport (how fitting)! Not too long ago that kind of capacity was only found inside a much larger, far less portable box that required an external power source. The My Passport line of portable drives, which range in capacity from 320 GB -– 2 TB, require no external power since they draw energy from your computer's USB port. And speaking of USB, the complete line of My Passport drives are USB 2.0 and 3.0 compatible for ultra fast transfer rates.
That said, Western DigitalWD isn't a one trick pony. Each drive includes Western Digital'sWD's backup software that is compatible with both Mac and Windows computers. It quietly runs in the background and automatically backs up your important data so you never have to run that pesky Apple Time Machine and it's even smart enough to backup your data based on category, or a file-by-file basis. And if you're looking for even more added security we suggest you checkout their WD Nomad rRugged case. This case's exterior is crafted from polycarbonate, while the interior is lined with a soft elastomer cushion, protecting your My Passport's data from drops up to 7 feet and a variety of inclement weather.
The My Passport line of drives start at $80 and are available from a variety of retailers including Amazon and those alike. Click here for more info.

This is the end of my favorite Guy/Jade art ever, and the whole thing is also archived at Yellow Yellow Happy.
It's funny, because I'm sort of the opposite. I like Guy/Jade because Guy has so much inner darkness that he has to hide or tuck away around everyone else. I notice that it's almost always in interaction with Jade when Guy's really snarky side comes out, and there's a few moments in the game where we really see Guy being bitter and angry. The peace treaty signing and the curse slot are the most obvious, but I think my favorite is on the Jewel of Gardios sidequest. He points out that the sword hanging on the wall at the Fabre manor used to belong to his family, and Luke says it must have been hard seeing that every day. Guy says - totally casual here - that no, actually it kept him going - he was planning to use that in his revenge. …In other words, what kept him going for years was the idea of taking a sword off the wall and killing everybody with it. Reformed or not, those kind of thinking patterns don't just vanish.
This got long-winded, but that's basically why I like the idea that Jade provides a space where Guy can just say what he thinks without worrying about hurting people's feelings. Even provides an example of how to do it, and object lessons in how people will walk right over you if you don't, sometimes. ("Guy, explain.") It's really a fascinating dynamic.
i would like these good words on my blog because yes
They have such a fascinating and good dynamic that works positively for both of them. Even though he's stepped off the revenge train, Guy still carries that bitterness and grief; he's just decided not to do anything about it and not let it tie him down. The peace conference scene makes it clear just how intense those feelings are—there isn't really a good time to pull your sword on the King of Kimlasca, but right before signing a peace treaty has to be one of the worst. It's Guy's first real chance for answers, and he loses his cool because he can't control himself.
It's all extremely deep seated and he has a tendency to deprioritize himself/his feelings in a way that if addressed directly, he'll downplay how much something bothers him most of the time, tell people not to worry about him, etc. But Jade has mastered the art of looking out for him without tipping him off. Like in the second scene in the Jewel of Gardios sidequest, when he asks if Guy is really satisfied with his father's sword hanging up in Fabre manor. Up until that point he's casually talked about revenge and dismissed his own pain, but when Jade asks him that he says that there's nothing he can do since the sword belongs to Duke Fabre now. There are also things like Jade just casually staying with Guy after he remembers his family's murder and runs off to the cathedral, probably to just let him talk before anyone else comes in and brings their own feelings into the mix or talks about how painful of an experience it must have been; Guy apologizes for the first and dismisses the second. Jade is also the type of person who notices the little things and wouldn't always need Guy to speak up about what he wants or wants to do—he'd just know.
It really goes both ways too, because Guy is almost constantly running commentary on Jade's behavior and is the first to point out when he's actually doing something nice (which usually embarrasses him) because he's not going to let Jade go too far off the self-deprecating evil genius end. He tells everyone to wait for Jade's explanation after the Nebilim battle, effectively pacifying them and giving Jade the time he needs. Guy has the self-confidence to roll with the punches and shrug off Jade calling him things like the Fon Machine King Guy Kaiser, but also has clear set boundaries that he won't let Jade cross, and when Jade gets too close Guy makes sure he backs down. They are both really weird people in a lot of ways and their eccentricities even suit each other because Jade is someone who needs a fair amount of space, where Guy is independent and knows how to occupy himself.
I also think part of the reason Jade starts deferring all the explanations to Guy is because he knows and admits his hatred for tedious explanations has put the party at a disadvantage more than once, and he both trusts and respects Guy enough to know he'll get the job done.
They are both just really good for each other, and I just got really overexcited when I saw someone else talking about them because their dynamic gets overlooked a lot!! Which I think makes sense in a way because they are both really subtle people who don't put their own feelings/agenda first in transparent ways. It's also little things like Jade talking about how handy it would be to have Guy in his home, and Anise teasing Guy about how cute Jade is. (I swear she Knows. She would.)

After explaining and convincing him who he is, Sly has Slytunkhamen put a message in the Thievius Raccoonus, which Bentley picks up and uses it to travel back in time with Murray and Carmelita.However, Paradox's time machine is still active and in the hands of a local warlord named Kaluk Warek, who surprisingly manages to get it to work for him, which threatens Sly's family history once more. So Sly and his friends travel back through time once more to save history.2. COOPER GANGSLY COOPER (Kevin Miller)You know him: he's charming, he's cunning and he's world's greatest thief.

We travelled to a time the most prominent female Cooper was active. Henrietta 'One-Eye' Cooper. She was the scourge of the seven seas, stealing from other pirates and corrupt privateers.

But so far as I could understand, it was Thaddeus Winslow Cooper III who was in trouble. My ancestor had perfected the art of disguise amongst the Cooper Clan. Without his entry I wouldn't have been able to steal the Clockwerk Wings from Rajan, or steal that bar of Swiss expensive chocolate. Probably he had some lieutenants left who didn't know their boss was out of the picture.

Peanut-Free/Nut-Free Directory
Our directory is intended as a resource for people with peanut and nut allergies. It contains foods, helpful products, and much more.
We just learned that our grandson has a peanut allergy. Haven't found out yet if other nuts or soy may be a problem. Right now with Christmas coming I am trying to make recipes that have chocolate, yet avoid peanuts, etc. My question is since a lot of chocolate can be cross-contaminated, is it safe to use Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder in recipes? Thanks
Hi grandma,
Hershey labels very well. So if there is no peanut warning on it, you should be able to use it. Same goes for chocolate chips.
Beware of cross contamination in your own kitchen. Since this is your first year dealing with this, look at what nuts you may have used. And how they may have contaminated other things (ex. butter, jelly jar, cookie sheets that may have one little spot of cookie left on them, baking stones that were used for nuts, etc). And this in way states that you are not a clean person, it is just something to think about....all it takes is a tiny little dot of PB protein.
Good Luck!!
Go the the snack and recipe board. You should be able to find some new neat recipes. Alot of times people put the brand name in. You still should double check, but it may be helpful!
Merry Christmas!
Thanks so much for your reply. We have been trying to check things around the kitchen, but I will doublecheck for things I might have missed. Our problem is our family has loved to eat and use nuts in just about everything. I have tried getting rid of those problem things since my grandson will be here Christmas, but I don't want to miss something that could be potentially harmful. Thanks again.
Welcome to PA.com. It is great that you came here to check things out for your grandson.
Right now I actually have, and have been using, Hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder in my cupboard (one of my sons is Peanut & Tree Nut allergic). The most important thing to do though, even if it is a product you have used safely before, is to read the label. Things can change with manufactures and the processes they use, so checking the label for warnings each time you buy something, is a good policy to get into the routine of doing.
Also I'm going to second the warning about cross contamination in your own kitchen. Since it sounds like you have previously use nuts a lot, it might be a good idea to go over your kitchen, the cooking implements you plan to use for anything your grandson might eat, preparation surfaces like cutting boards, food processors - things you chopped nuts with, etc., as though you were cleaning up e-coli (that is the easiest way I can think of relating how thorough one needs to be). And if you are baking, you might think of using parchment paper on your baking sheets, if you haven't purchased new ones -- especially if you have baked a lot of peanut butter cookies or other similar types of cookies with nuts.
Most of all, know that even your coming here to find information is a great gesture of support, which your grandson and his parents will need as they go forward learning how to incorporate dealing with the allergy in their lives now. That you are a willing spirit in helping make their son safe is a wonderful thing. Many of us here wish we had people in our lives that were so thoughtful.
Happy Holidays & Happy Baking!

Mad Med'in 5. sezonu uzunca bir aradan sonra 2012'de başlıyor. Okuduklarıma göre dizinin 3 sezon daha uzatılması kararlatırılmış. Pek bir sevindik. İçimden bir ses 5. sezonda Don ile Betty arasında tekrar birşeyler olabilir diyor. Her ne kadar 4. sozunun sonunda Don başka biriyle evlenmeye karar vermiş olsa bile..
1.sezon finalinden bir sahne:
"Well, technology is a glittering lure. But there is a rare occasion when the public can be engaged on a level beyond flash – if they have a sentimental bond with the product. My first job I was in house at a fur company, with this old pro of a copywriter, a Greek, named Teddy. Teddy told me the most important idea in advertising is "new." It creates an itch. You simply put your product in there as a kind of calamine lotion. He also talked about a deeper bond with a product: nostalgia. It's delicate, but potent. Sweetheart. [starts slide show featuring photos of Draper's family.] Teddy told me that in Greek, nostalgia literally means the pain from an old wound. It's a twinge in your heart, far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn't a space ship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, forwards. It takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It's not called a wheel, it's called a carousel. It lets us travel the way a child travels. Round and a round, and back home again. To a place where we know we are loved."
