Boatswain's chair
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (February 2013)
A boatswain's chair (or bosun's chair) is a device used to suspend a person from a rope to perform work aloft. It is distinguished from a climbing harness by the inclusion of a more or less rigid seat, providing more comfort than even the best-padded straps for long-term use. In exchange, the bosun's chair does not allow the freedom of movement necessary for climbing, and the occupant is generally hoisted or lowered into place using the rope alone.
Some bosun's chairs consist of little more than a short plank and a suitable set of ropes to suspend it from; these are usually used with a separate harness in case the user should slip off the plank. Other bosun's chairs, particularly the type commonly carried on yachts for masthead repair, incorporate more straps so that the wearer cannot fall out, though they still include a rigid or semi-rigid seat.
As well as on ships and boats where they originated, bosun's chairs are also used for working at height on buildings and other structures. In commercial window cleaning, the term 'bosun's chair' is used for other devices suspended from rope and equipped with seatboards, such as controlled descent apparatus (CDAs). However, CDAs cannot be raised and lowered like a true bosun's chair, and can be used for descent only.
Bosun's Chair has become a competition in Sea Scout Regattas around the country[which?] such as the Old Salt's Regatta and the Ancient Mariner's Regatta. The event requires a line running through a block connected to a tower, simulating a ship's mast. Two participants approach the line and prepare it for the event. When ready, the participants stand at attention. On the signal from the judges time starts. One person ties into one side of the line using a French bowline. The person places one loop around their waist and the other under their legs. The other person gets ready to pull the first person up to the block. When the person who is tied in reaches the top and touches the block they yell touch. Time then stops and they are slowly lowered to the ground. As soon as the person touches the ground or the two participants touch each other time begins. The first person unties and the second person ties in. The second person is raised to the top, time stops, and they are lowered. Time again starts when the person touches the ground or their partner, and is stopped finally when the knot is untied, and the participants stand at attention again. A competitive time is at least under one minute for the entire operation.
The competition judges are in charge of safety. If the French bowline is tied wrong or does not have the six inches of tail required, safety will be called and with time running, the competitors will have to fix this. Another reason to call safety is if the loops of the French bowline are not in the right places or are too loose. If the descent is not done in controlled a hand over hand method, the team will be disqualified.
At the Old Salt's regatta, the bosun's chair is an eight-person competition. Instead of multiple teams of two competing, the entire team lines up for the event. The first person ties in while the second person raises them. Once they touch the ground, the first person unties and is done. The second person then ties in and is lifted by the third person. This continues until the final person lifts someone and the second to last person is lifted, unties and the crew returns to attention.[citation needed]
This event is based on a practice from old navy ships. High-ranking officers would be lifted onto the ships instead of climbing on board. The bosun's chair would be attached to a block on the davit with a line. The officer would have the chair put under him, or the French bowline tied around him, and then sideboys would lift him onto the deck of the ship on the command of the bosun's whistle.[citation needed]

Dear Dr. Williams: I enjoy your articles greatly and they make a lot of sense. But, please stop writing them because there are only a few people left that understand them since math is no longer a requirement in most schools. Ignorance is bliss, don't you know, and it has spread far and wide, worse than the plague. So relax, get a bucket list, and pursue something productive, because there is an ever shrinking number of people left that even want to understand economics, let a lone practice it. Perception is reality. True statesmen understand reality and mold perception to match reallity. Politicians take advantage of perceptions based on ignorance. There are no more statesmen, only politicians. So take a long deserved rest.

Part of Dana-phobia stems from the trial-and-error techniques required during assembly. The depth of the pinion gear is determined by a shim positioned between the case and the lower pinion bearing race, but you wont know if the depth is correct until the differential and ring gear are installed. If it is out of spec, you must disassemble everything and add or subtract shims. Jim Cook says an experienced rebuilder can get it right the first time and that it usually means reusing the shims that were already in place, assuming the axle was in good working order. If there are no shims, start with a 0.035-inch sliver and go from there.

Comment: Re:So what's wrong with systemd, really? (Score 1) 378
Binding previously-separate features into one project is bad design, by itself, the problem with systemd.
Why? Justify that statement without using any reference to the UNIX way or it being the way things have always been designed.
IMHO a coordinated set of functions that are used in a common way should be combined.
There are times when combining separate features into a single project makes sense - BusyBox is the classic example of this.
The problem is that it reduces the system's modularity - instead of being able to replace udev, the logging interface, etc. independently, you need to replace/patch the entirety of systemd. Now, if the upstream was willing to actively support modularity by maintaining stable APIs, this wouldn't be a problem, but they've gone out of their way to remove those APIs from all the projects they've assimilated.
I think systemd offers significant improvements over its predecessors, and agree that journalctl is much easier to use, but I don't think the way the project is being managed is good for the long term health of the Linux ecosystem.

Business Ideas in the News / January 25, 2010
Another great new entry onto our website in the past week is the Sugacane franchise. This sweet shop franchise is already set to open 20 new stores this year with this number increasing as new enquiries come though.
having looked at the franchise myself I can certainly say that IF i had the money and IF I was not already running my own business then YES I would love to own this franchise. Running a sweet shop sounds nothing more than great fun and this one has some added twists.
How about this for a great idea:
They have what is called the SugaShake.

CBS Turns to Stewart For Michigan Right-to-Work Reporting; Liberal Comedian Likens Law to Strip Clubs

- tags: cbs CBS This Morning charlie rose Comedy Central Jon Stewart Norah O'Donnell The Daily Show
- channels: Media Research Center
On 12 December 2012, CBS This Morning shipwrecked its aim to be hard news alternative to ABC's Good Morning American and NBC's Today show, as its only coverage of the passage of the right-to-work law in Michigan was a clip of Comedy Central's Jon Stewart ripping the legislation. Anchors Charlie Rose and Norah O'Donnell laugh on air in reaction to Stewart's shtick, with O'Donnell adding, "That's pretty good."
The liberal Daily Show host poked fun of the "right-to-work" phrase: "It's really a right to work around the union for the corporation. It's one of those things that are actually named for the opposite of the thing they do, like strip bars call themselves 'gentlemen's clubs'....Or the TV network dedicated to making us stupider is called The Learning Channel."

Considered the consummate classical ballet, "The Sleeping Beauty" features devilishly hard technical challenges, with nowhere to hide. Traditional stagings -- like Pacific Northwest Ballet's long, rich, drafty one -- have pretty vapid storylines. Instead, the audience identifies with the dancers' technical struggles. That's the meaningful, heroic story. In "Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty" (2012), which opened in Los Angeles at the Ahmanson Theatre on Thursday night, the visionary Bourne – the world's only living director/choreographer who … [Read more...]

What age is the right age to put baby in walker
How many months should baby be before putting baby in walker

To Africanbelle, your post is really anti-productive. I personally LOVE hearing from other moms, because their knowledge is based on experiences with heir own children. Do bear in mind the so called "experts" will provide you basically with the same information as other mothers, but without the actual experience of raising kids. A lot of the time, these mothers experiences will save you a lot of time. --now to the original question... My son just turned 5 months and I put him in both a bouncer: fisher price jumperoo (when he was 4 1/2 and a walker). He loves the bouncer, and he just learned how to move in the walker 3 days ago. He can already roll over on his own and hold himself up with assistance. If I sit him up he still tips over but he's still pretty strong. Stands on his own in the walker without falling forward. And he pushes himself, which is helping to develop his lower body strength. So long as you baby proof your home a walker should be safeposted 01/21/2014 by a BabyCenter Member
I know that this is also a forum for mothers but sometimes when looking for the answer to a question I really prefer to have an expert advise me than to hear the opinion of others and I hope Babycenter can do something about this because I am still no closer to knowing what is an appropriate age to put my baby in a walker.posted 08/04/2013 by africanbelle
I don't think there is a certain month exactly because all babies develop differently and at different rates. I waited till my daughter was around 6 months maybe closer to 7, I waited till she was sitting up really well on her own and had very good upper body strength. You don't want your baby to keep falling forward and smashing their face on the toys or tray of the walker or hurting themselves. So when your baby sits up for long stretches by themselves and you feel comfortable try the walker out. Don't expect the baby to do much 'walking' right away. My daughter kicked her feet and sometimes moved it a little on accident from the kicking of her feet, but as your baby gets used to the new toy and legs get stronger, and they start moving it on accident they realize they are mobile in this new thing and really start taking off. Good luck and have fun, you are coming into lots of fun new stages...crawling, walking, etc. It's great seeing them do new things! :o)posted 05/03/2010 by mrswest2010
[By walker I mean the kind with the protected seat.] I believe the main concern is that the child may accidentally hit something or fall from a step/stairs while in the walker. To prevent accidents: 1. There should be baby gates installed and closed/locked to block any staircases or steps going down (and up!) 2. There should be no objects or furniture that are at the child's head/body level and which the child with a walker can fit under. (i.e. like a table edge may hit baby's head or body while baby and walker are going under it.) Remove such protruding objects or do not let baby roam in a walker in that room. 3. The child should be closely supervised in the walker. In Canada we couldn't find walkers and had to find it in the US. My baby is 6 months old and is just discovering it. p.s. Exersaucer promotes abnormal posturing and positioning, delays development, increases risk of injury and promotes extension of the body. Jolly jumper is not recommended due to the impact on legsposted 12/01/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
My son is almost 4 months old and I put him in his walker yesterday. He loved it and he was also able to make hisself go backwards.posted 09/17/2014 by Inde40112
im sorry i used on my kid and he had no developmental issues he is actually learning ahead and has great posture!posted 07/18/2014 by wesleysmommy0705
Baby walkers are perfectly safe provided you are with baby the whole time they are using it, and you have done a risk assessment of the area in which the baby will be using the walker. "Fail to prepare, prepare to fail"posted 01/23/2013 by swales07
Was just doing some research and was reading that experts say not to use walkers/bouncers due to it slows developmental process...still not sure if I want to try and get one anyways but it was saying that babies who use them learn to walk and crawl slower because they are unable to see their feet in a bouncer/walker. Something to think about.posted 05/21/2014 by a BabyCenter Member
You said: "Was just doing some research and was reading that experts say not to use walkers/bouncers due to it slows developmental process..." I put my son in a bouncer when he was 4 mos., not only did it NOT slow his development I think it actually helped him because he learned to move his legs up and down. At 5 mos. I put him in a walker. He army crawled at 5.5 mos. & was able to stand himself up from the floor at 6.5 mos. Walking w/help since 6 mo. At 7.5 mos he was able to stand for 10 seconds without holding on to anything. He is now 9 months and can get around on his own. He can also walk with me holding just one hand. He is not walking on his own yet because he is just scared to let go of my hand, and I'm not forcing him because he is doing fine as it is. My sons development was pretty fast and I used both a bouncer and a walker. I put the bouncer away when he was 7 months. At 9 mos. I still use the walker only so I can control where he goes. Experts are full of itposted 05/22/2014 by mrodnyc
The fear is that baby may accidentally hit sharp or hot stuff (oven, hot coffee spilling as a result of table being hit), falling downstairs from step or staircases, or hitting furniture leading head injury or more. They are illegal in Canada. I think with responsible parenting and close supervision they can be fun and helpful too. Just make sure baby sits well first and had perfect head control!!! :)posted 12/01/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

TOLEDO, OH (Toledo News Now) - A man accused of killing a Springfield Township couple in January 2011 faced a judge and jury Wednesday for the first step in his murder trial. One thing that was clear in opening statements was that there is one key piece of evidence that could play a big role in the case.
An emotionless Cameo Pettaway sat in the courtroom Wednesday morning and listened, as both the prosecution and defense laid out what they think happened in the early morning hours of Jan. 31, 2011. That is when a young couple, Johnny Clarke and Lisa Straub, was found dead in the house, bound by duct tape, with plastic bags over their heads.
The prosecution took the stand first, saying that while there may not be any witnesses, there is still evidence, including a cigarette butt found near the bodies.
"The butt had been smoked by a man named Sam Williams, who is on trial in another court right now. And the other person who smoked that cigarette butt was Cameo," said Tim Braun, assistant Lucas County prosecutor.
Prosecutors said Pettaway worked with at least one other man to ransack the home, force their way into locked rooms looking for money and other valuables, and kill the couple.
But the defense is not buying that.
"DNA, like a cigarette butt, is portable. It can be moved from one place to another," said Mark Geudtner, defense attorney. "The tests cannot prove when, or where, or under what circumstances a person's evidence can be left on an item of evidence."
The defense said Pettaway's DNA was not found anywhere else at the crime scene. They also said there are more suspects the sheriff's department failed to consider and that Pettaway consistently denies any involvement.
Pettaway is charged with two counts of aggravated murder, two counts of kidnapping, and aggravated burglary.
His trial will pick up again Monday when jury selection for Samuel William's, the other man accused in the murder, is complete.
On Tuesday, the death penalty specification was dropped for Pettaway after Judge James Bates decided he did not meet the state's standards due to mental issues. By law, individuals who are mentally challenged cannot face the death penalty.
Pettaway still faces life in prison if convicted.

Ken Robinson Primary School
Another fantastic talk on education from Ken Robinson.
Let's start his education revolution TODAY.
If we were to open the Ken Robinson Primary School, a school that champions the principles Ken is proposing, how would the school look? What features would it have? Let's work together to make this school a reality starting today here on TED.

May 12 2013: Instead of building more schools, it is my hope that Orsch's discoveries will help spread strategy and insight to other schools. Our school exists as a lab - constantly seeking answers we can share with the educational community as a whole. We have many answers to share - the book will be out this summer. I am working hard to finish as the school year comes to a close.
Ryan ZhuMay 12 2013: Jackie I've taken a look at the Orsch website and indeed it is 100% the Ken Robinson Primary School! Amazing. All the ideas of recognising student individuality, creativity, and constant teaching improvement are there.
Have you gotten in touch with Ken Robinson so he knows that at least one school out there is showing the world his principles in application?
How about getting in touch with other schools that share similar principles like Harlem Village Academies? Maybe get together to share ideas and raise a powerful collective voice to lead this education revolution.
Jackie BurtMay 12 2013: Getting together to share ideas and raise a voice is a wonderful idea. We do our best to learn from each and every innovative idea that comes our way - that is how the world of education should operate - evolution of ideas will bring more progress.
The difference between other wonderful programs and Orsch is that Orsch exists to spread the knowledge we gain. We have built our philosophy around input and feedback from students themselves and we adjust based on our observations of their engagement. We have so much to share with the world about how best to connect with and serve students - how individualization becomes a reality - how community must come first - how creativity can infiltrate every single day/lesson/assignment - how freedom and independence lead to essential life skills. The Blue School, HVA and many other schools are amazing learning environments that meet the needs of their students and offer a creative approach, however, they are insulated programs. They serve their students wonderfully, but millions of children still do not have access to good programming. This is why I am so passionate about spreading the very real possibility of change that we have tested. We have "lab" results to share that will benefit millions of kids. Very small changes can make a big difference.
I have tried repeatedly to contact Sir Ken. Every time I see him speak or read his words I know that he would be overjoyed to know of the discoveries we have made. He would support the outreach I so desperately want to offer.

Besso: Eva Longoria's New Tex-Mex Restaurant. Any Comments?
I have seen plenty of media coverage of sexy Eva Longoria's recently-opened Tex-Mex restaurant in the Hollywood area----including views of the food, such as the tacos and goodies that she brought outside to the marauding paparazzi to distract them so that her celeb friends could sneak inside through the back entrance. She says that SoCal didn't serve the kind of Tex-Mex food that her mother made and that she was used to in Texas and thats what she wanted her place to be cooking. I know its only been open for a short time, but has anybody been there? Any comments?
EaterLA has the menu and a quickie review, I think. I don't think I'll be going (except maybe for drinks) because the menu is pretty much 100% meat/fish/chicken.
I was excited about this restaurant opening not so much because of Eva Longoria, but rather because she is collaborating with Todd English on it, and I love his restaurant Olives in Vegas. I haven't been to Beso myself, but I took a look at the citysearch reviews and there are pretty consistently terrible. Oh, well.
re: ExtraCheesePlease
One month wait nonsense for a tex mex place? I don't think so.
Hi, Chowhounders - this is my first post, so be kind .
What prompted me to finally jump in? The truly awful meal I just at at Beso, the new hot spot restaurant in Hollywood. I thought you should all be warned. (Just got home ten minutes ago, so the experience and that taste I can't get out of my mouth are still fresh.) It's kind of a joke. $10.00 valet. Pay in advance. Host refusing to seat you until your whole party is there. The place was EMPTY! The room looks like a beautifully decorated airplane hanger - but at the end of the day, who wants to eat in an airplane hanger. The crowd - mainly hollywood tourists - t-shirts and sweats hoping to see some celebrities. A few older foodies. The service - pleasant but let's just say... untrained. I mean - the waiter didn't know the white wines from the reds. And it's a really small wine list split into whites and reds. Honestly. Couldn't explain the specials and had no idea what several of the items were on the menu. Did recommend that we order the flat bread appetizer while we were deciding. Took him up on it. Two minutes later - the complimentary one showed up. (Actually really good. But kind of didn't need to order the second one.) Truly, the flatbread was the best part. Chopped salad - blah - and the shaved artichoke salad to start. (That's the taste that won't go away - so much bargain basement truffle oil on it that I haven't been really able to taste anything since.) Entrees - paella, steak and tuna tacos. Boring, pretty good, and average. Dessert. ice cream sandwiches - tasty but uninspired. Chocolate benets - horrible! The ice cream with it tasted like dirt. Maybe if the restaurant didn't try so desperately to feel like an event it wouldn't have been so disappointing. But truly - there is no reason to set foot in this place. Oh - and as a final grace note... after you're ten dollar trip to the valet - you have to wait for your car on the other side of the street in front of the Hollywood Spa. (For the uninitiated, a fairly notorious sex club. classy to the very end.)

re: db0004
thank you very much for saving me a trip.
re: db0004
This review is priceless! I'm glad I didn't wait the month for the reservation. I guess Eva shouldn't quit her day job. Too bad though, Todd English is an amazing chef and I love his Olives in both Vegas and NYC.
re: db0004
Thanks for the review! You took a bullet for all of us. ;)
re: db0004
Parking at the Spa. Certainly a "classy" touch...
Did a half-review, more observation on Eater LA
First of all, no idea where everyone gets Tex-Mex. Was it People? Us Weekly? The PR pushing to those magazines has no idea what they're doing, that's for sure. There's NOTHING, I repeat, nothing tex-mex or barely even Mexican at the place. The food we found tolerable ended up being direct rip-offs from Todd English's other restaurants (skirt steak tacos, artichoke guacamole, steak with grilled romain). The paying public shouldn't be subjected to other dishes---flavorless mushy "drunken shrimp" with tequila after burn; horrible paella, if you can call it that, was more like chicken bones, overcooked shellfish and rice swimming in dishwater broth; chocolate souffle doused in ice cream (what?) and chocolate sauce (WHAT?). The churros were OK for dessert, but the sauces tasted like Red Hots melted in chocolate and Brach's caramels melted and then coagulated again. English was not in the house.
Needs a LOT of work. And the airport hangar is pretty spot on.

UI Tweak: Left Column Too Narrow

FYI, the first time you run HeidiSQL on a computer that has never used it before, the left column (showing database, tables, etc.) is too narrow to display any names... the space used by the tree, icon and size take away from the area for the text, so the text doesn't show up.
It's kind of confusing for new users to connect to a database and have it appear as though all the table names are gone.
Just a cosmetic issue, but I've seen numerous people confused by it.

Portrait psychologique de l'investisseur individuel en Europe
Abstract[eng] A Psychological Portrait of the Individual Investor in Europe . How are the values and beliefs of European investors linked to the perceived attractiveness of asset classes and investment strategies ? Until recently, little was known about this question. We summarize the data, methods, and results of the largest survey study ever conducted. More than 3,100 investors in six countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) participated. As anticipated, we find that clusters of values and beliefs, correlated with national identity, predict portfolio choice. Our findings have important implications for financial marketing and product design. . JEL classifications : E21, G11, M31 [fre] Comment les valeurs et croyances des investisseurs européens influencent-elles l'achat d'actifs et les stratégies d'investissement ? Jusqu'à récemment, on savait peu de choses sur cette question. Cet article résume les données, la méthodologie et les résultats d'une large enquête conduite sur le sujet par les auteurs. Plus de 3 100 investisseurs de six pays (Belgique, France, Allemagne, Italie, Espagne et Royaume-Uni) y ont participé. Les auteurs montrent que l'ensemble des valeurs et croyances, corrélé avec l'identité nationale, permet d'estimer les choix de portefeuille.

When Should Family Sleeping Stop?
I was recently asked about a couple whose 5-year-old son is sleeping with his mom while the father is sleeping in another room. This is a problem.
Dr. Michelle Golland: First, family sleeping actually involves the whole family sleeping in the same room or same bed, not one parent left out either by choice, design, or ease of situation. I believe each couple must make the decision together on how sleeping is going to be managed within their house. It needs to be a conscious decision, whether you are going to do shared sleeping for a time while you are nursing, or whether the baby will be in their own space from the beginning and will be fed in their room. I do not judge which situation you choose, but there are simply positives and negatives to both situations. For example, it is easier to nurse while the baby is in the bed, but it may be harder to sleep for some people as well.
I know these situations firsthand because my husband and I did shared sleeping with both of our children, who are now 8 and 5. I can say now that they are happily in their own bedrooms, but still love an occasional "Big Bed" night, where we all sleep in the master bedroom together. The important word here is occasional. The negative consequences of a situation where a child is really only sleeping with one parent are many, including issues between the couple, as well as issues for the child.
At some point, even kids need to have their own space and learn to sleep on their own. As parents, we are to help them deal with the anxiety of that experience by providing a loving and safe way for them to ease into sleep in their own room where they feel happy and comfortable. I believe the best age range to begin that process is anywhere from 2 to 4, depending on your family's circumstances, but remember that I am referring to actual shared sleeping, not one parent sleeping with the child.
If one parent doesn't want to do shared sleeping, then it is best not to do it at all. If it begins to be lopsided, with one parent over time being in the bed while the other is on the sofa, then it is time for that child to have his or her own sleeping space while the parents sleep together in the same room.
The 5-year-old that sleeps with his mom is clearly aware that he is getting the special time while his dad is on his own. What kind of message does this send to the child? I believe it tells him that his father or mother doesn't like this experience that he finds so wonderful, which is simply confusing to him. I think unconsciously, it is telling him something negative about his parents' relationship that he will interpret later in life as a negative for sure. Believe me -- any person I do therapy with, when recounting that their parents didn't sleep in the same room, sees this as a big problem. It is usually indicative of a marriage that was in trouble. It often also made them feel sad for either one or both of their parents, and confused about what it meant to even be married.
For the couple, there are either active marriage problems or there are going to be soon. It is simply important that as a couple, especially with children in the home, you create an intimate space that you both enjoy. The parent's bedroom should be a place of peace, rejuvenation, and intimacy, both sexual and non-sexual. I can guarantee that resentment and anger for one or both partners will develop if this behavior continues, if it is not active already. Our children require so much of our energy during the day that we must develop healthy boundaries around our own intimate time with our partner. Our children will not just hand this over to us by saying "OK, Mom and Dad, I know you have fed, played with me, and even wiped my tushy today, so I think you two should be alone and bond now." We as parents help them understand by seeing our actions in relationship with each other that we value our time and moments with our partner. We are not just examples of "mom and dad" for our kids, but of "husband and wife." We are showing them how to be in a relationship. I know when I see my son, I surely don't want him to be in a marriage where he is sleeping on the sofa disconnected from his future partner.
|Dr. Golland is a USC graduate and a licensed Clinical Psychologist (PSY#16974). She works with adults, teens and is an expert in the field of marriage and relationships. Dr. Golland has given her expert advice on CNN, HLN, MSNBC, ABC, and Fox news. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and wonderfully exhausting two children.
A son sleeping with mom, while dad is in another room, is not the usual definition of Family Bed, that I am aware of. Doing anything with your child to the exclusion of the spouse is not a healthy thing for one's marriage.
In other cultures moms sometimes sleep with the baby or child apart from the husband.
While i agree there might be an issue in the marriage if the spouses don't sleep together, I can say that my husband has a hard time sleeping, and even before we had children would sleep in the guest room/on the couch on occasion, just as he does now with our bedsharing toddler. There is plenty of cuddle time at bedtime, in the mornings, but the actual SLEEP hours he sometimes needs to be alone, and I do not believe this is a sign of a marriage problems.
Calling this "a problem" is both unimaginative and judgmental.
I know families where the parents sleep apart because the father snores. If there are two bedrooms and two beds, then it only makes sense for the person that disturbs the sleep of others to be the one that sleeps alone.
To suggest that intimacy can only happen in the marital bed is extremely conservative and unimaginative. We put our kids to bed, enjoy intimacy in other parts of the house, and can then join the kids to sleep later.
In our house, we play musical beds with the sleep arrangements changing as our children grow and their preferences change. But no one has to sleep alone if they don't want to and no one has to sleep with others if they don't want to.
My first-born daughter spent her first 2 nights at home in the bed with my late-husband & I but I made the choice to move her crib into our room & have her sleep there when I woke during the 2nd night & had her so close to me we were both sweating.
My second-born daughter slept in the bed with me for 2 weeks; my late-husband slept in the guest room b/c he had the flu & pneumonia.
Late DH & I traded off sleeping with daughter the 1st when she was 2-3 b/c his snoring kept me awake. It didn't bother daughter the 1st.
Our girls shared a bed together and/or with me during the year or so after late-husband died.
One girl or the other gets into bed with my "now" husband and I every once in awhile but not often.
I think the "family bed" should be temporary or allowed occasionally but it is important for children to learn to sleep in their own bed and for parents to do the same.
Couldn't get my older kid out of my bed until he was around 6 so when I had the second child we try not to repeat the same habit. If she's sick we will let her in bed but if she just wants to sleep with us we give her a sleeping bag and she "camps out" beside our bed. I usually will hold her hand until she fell asleep and this way we get to keep the bed and she still feels close to us. I don't know if because we didn't let her in as much as my son but she doesn't really have the need to sleep with us as much and is fine with her own bed.
Ugh, I'm against cosleeping altogether specifically for the reason that people (KIDS INCLUDED) need their own space. And there is no way I am going to kick my husband out of bed just because my child wants to sleep in the big bed! Just let your children sleep in their own beds…it is better for everyone!
My daughter's family co-sleeps. The children are 12 (male), 10 (female), 8 (female) plus Mom and Dad. These are healthy kids — two weigh over 100 pounds. So frequently Dad sleeps with the girls and Mom and son sleep in another room or Mom sleeps with one or more girls or sometimes , the children sleep together. I am disturbed by this sleeping method but have been told I am "out of touch". I think an embarrassing incident is not far from happening.

RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, Calif.—Authorities have taken a 17-year-old into custody after a reserve sergeant in the Orange County Sheriff's Department was found shot in the head and beaten in a Rancho Santa Margarita home.
The Orange County Register reports ( http://bit.ly/Z0w735) it's unclear what the relationship was between the teen and the 50-year-old victim, who was in critical condition Wednesday.
Sheriff's department spokesman Jim Amormino says the reserve sergeant was in his home Wednesday morning when his mother found him injured.
The search for the teen prompted a brief lockdown of Trabuco Hills High School until he was spotted by California Highway Patrol and taken into custody.
A reserve sergeant is a volunteer peace officer who isn't sworn in. They are often asked to help patrol events and aid in search and rescue efforts.

Am I the only one who can't watch another minute of "Unwrapped"?
The premise is growing old. Too much emphasis on prepared foods and way too boring. Maybe once a month as a special...
I actually like the premise itself, and find food history an incredibly interesting topic. But there is something about this show that drives me insane too. The hosting? The editing? The cheesy-pun voiceovers?
Good idea for a show, but I agree that it should be pruned back a bit.
It's total hit or miss for me as well. The products all feel dated, and the factories blend into one another after awhile.
Plus, the only thing I can think of when I see Marc Summers is how he is a rumored germaphobe. If you look closely, he never ever takes a bite out of anything - the camera cuts right before he can eat it.
Now that George Duran is hosting "The Secret Life of..." it's really grown on me.
Oh god. I have never really been able to handle the show; but it's some kind of personal problem I have with seeing foods in such bulk. It started with a show on ... it might have been tomato paste. They show a cute chub of red paste moving down a conveyor belt, la dee da, and then the camera pulled back and back and back to show a worker standing next to it and it was the size of a Volkswagen! I almost PASSED. OUT. Since then I dive for the remote when the show starts. Or, I would, if I ever watched FoodTV anymore.
I mean, I'm aware we consume a great deal, and it takes mountains and boxcars to feed the masses, but just seeing tons and tons of anything moving along in a factory no longer holds any appeal for me. I get woozy even thinking about it, there's just something inherently revolting about that for me.
When I was a kid, there was a show on every Saturday morning before the cartoons (this is the early 60s) called, seriously, Industry on Parade. It had a real Soviet feel about it as you learned that a steel mill could make ingots in a day that would stretch from Pennsylvania to Wisconsin or some such nonsense. Unwrapped reminds me a LOT of Industry on Parade. It has a real propaganda feel to it. They've had a couple of mildly interesting themes, but on the whole, it's like a half-hour press release.
Marc Summers is unctuous, cheesy and way too droll.
He also either has negatives of someone at Food Network doing something disgusting or else bought stock in the Network early, as he's hung on long past his talent usefulness, in my opinion. He actually hosted at least part of the last Food Network Chefs series and, if you watch the credits, appears to own a piece of several of those shows.
I had not heard the germaphobe thing,, but it is absolutely spot on as far as describing his handling of food.
re: Bob Mervine
Looks like his has OCD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Sum... so that's probably where the germaphobe and handling of food issue stems from.
Having said that, I've always found him more like a snake oil salesman - very slimy. And recently, when I happened to catch him on FN while channel surfing, looking stretched WAY too tight for someone who's 7 years older than I am. :-)
re: Bob Mervine
Take a look at the production credits for most of the shows on FN and you'll see his name.
re: Bob Mervine
I have always disliked this show and I think it is primarily due to the host--I don't like him on that History Channel gameshow either. Was he famous for something at some point? I can't remember...
The premise could be fun--maybe have Alton Brown host it? Although in some ways he does the same thing on Good Eats.
re: coney with everything
I remember him from that Nickelodeon kids show Double Dare. I guess that's when his cheesiness (and possibly OCD with all those messy mazes) began...
re: thegingerbreadgirl
Yes, and the "slime" that got dumped on their heads... what was it with Nickelodeon and slime? Anyway, that's where his appeal is, and will always be... with kids/teenagers.
BTW, I don't like "Unwrapped." I'm over it.
re: thegingerbreadgirl
hahaha, i just posted the same thing below!
i can't get past the Double Dare thing...even though that was 20+ yrs ago...
re: mamamia
I also liked the premise of the show, but after a while it all looks the same. Mark Summers is not right for this show. I also can't stand that fake diner/soda shop set.
re: MrsT
I KNOW!!! They actually had a show explaining behind the scenes of Unwrapped expalining the fake set. So cheesy how everyone is pretending to be in a soda shop. They need a host who doesn't look plastic and actually tastes the food. This one needs canned (no pun intended). I like the Dean Brothers in Road Tasted-they have fun and eat the food.
I think it sometimes can be interesting to learn the history behind certain products, but of course that lasts only a couple of seconds before they show them pumping out products in a big manufacturing plant. And there's always some corporate person for each product spouting off about how they use "only the finest high-quality ingredients in our products" such as "partially hydrogenated soybean oil" and "high-fructose corn syrup".
I HATE that show! It's on after I eat dinner and it always makes me sick. Who's watching it?
I tune in for 5 minutes or so once in a while. but it gets old fast; it's mostly food moving down an automatic production line. I haven't seen any confirmation, but it sure looks like a series of brief infomercials.
I like the show, but it can be a bit boring. The host doesn't really do much to add to it. Oddly enough, on the specials where Alton Brown is explaining how things are made, or telling you about special restaurants, it's never that dry or boring.
The one thing I don't get is the motivation for these companies to be featured on Unwrapped. There is nothing appealing about watching a snickers bar being made, no matter how delicious the final product is. Let alone frozen burritos or anything that starts in a vat of goo. The only exception being the small chocolatiers that do everything by hand and you can watch them dip caramels, etc. Other than that? Gross.
re: Azizeh Barjesteh
My wife and two preteen daughters love to watch the show with or without me. I am a culinary school grad and well seasoned Chef that made the jump to food manufacturing over 20 years ago, so seeing the process of how other foods are prepared is quite interesting to me and my family. I do apprreciate how the history of the food and company is touched upon. I am always amazed at the equipment and marvel at how engineers can take a process and envision with the folks that create the food product and devise a machine to produce the product in an efficient and safe and most of all quality manner. There are some aspects of the show I could do without, yes Summers can be a little goofy and the explanations of parts of the show are so dumbed down it can be insulting. I also question some of the operations that they feature, some being not so well operated from a sanitary point of view. All in all it can be entertaining and imformative
re: jscott65
Wow a post that's not negative! Amazing!
Marc Summers has freely admitted to his OCD, I don't think it affects the show. I think this show is interesting and he is fine as a host. He's been a host or producer of probably a billion shows now. It's nothing earth shattering, but he gets the job done.
Cannot stand that show!
First, there's the migraine-inducing cheesiness of Mark Summers, who I remember from Double Dare 2000 (that guy has barely aged in 15-20 years). Then there's the content itself. I just find the production process behind these foods to be boring. If they concentrated on the history and personalities behind the products, it might be more interesting. What I dislike most about Unwrapped is the fact that nearly all the products they feature are candies/sweets or other bland, unhealthy, mass produced foods like potato chips. How about showing a wider range of goods which are produced in places besides factories?

Singer JOHN MAYER is all set to go through surgery this week to remove the granuloma doctors found above one of his vocal cords a month ago. Celebrity news heard throat surgery is very delicate business and there's always a risk of John losing his voice completely if something goes wrong…
John was reported to have visited a medical center several times in the last couple of months after some sort of throat illness caused him to scrap a show and delay the release of a new album. Resting his voice didn't help his condition any, and he finally sought a specialized medical diagnosis which pointed toward a throat tumor.
No, it's not the big C, but it's a tumor nonetheless that's bound to interfere with his profession in a major way…because what's a singer without a voice?
The granuloma, an inflamed nodule that's taken on the appearance of a tumor-like mass of tissue, was caused when immune cells formed naturally in the body when the immune system sought to ward off foreign substances or infectious organisms, such as bacteria and fungi.
John must have been exposing himself, and his throat, in particular, to a lot of "foreign substances and infectious organism" in the last couple of years and his body has been fighting back by forming the granuloma. Nothing malignant, really. But something that's sure to grow and affect his voice and livelihood if left untreated.
Let's hope John Mayer recovers from his medical ordeal stat and regard his granuloma incident as a second chance to take a better stance on his health in the future…

Foursquare, the popular location-based social networking service, recently announced plans to remove social features and check-ins from its original mobile client.
Thus, Swarm was born.
By striping the mobile client off unnecessary features, the logic went, Foursquare aimed to provide its users with a lightweight app that would have a strong focus on location discovery.
After announcing the redesigned new app and showing off a new logo two weeks ago, the new Forusquare 8.0 for iPhone is now available in the App Store. It "learns what you like and leads you to places you love," as per the blurb, and is a lot like Yelp now.

Your coffee habit could kill you
New study finds that heavy coffee consumption could lead to early death.
I'm about to finish my second cup of coffee as I sit down to write this. And given what I've just learned, I think I'll go dump out what's still left in the coffee pot off and cut myself off for the day. Because, although various studies over the years have touted some benefits to daily caffeine consumption (much to the joy of java addicts everywhere), the newest research paints a much more cautionary tale. This huge study involved over 43,000 people between the ages of 20 and 87. Over the course of the 17-year follow up, the researchers looked at causes and ages of deaths that occurred and also measured subjects' coffee intake using self-reported questionnaires. What they found is that for both men and women in the 55 and under group, a heavy coffee habit increased the chances of premature death by more than 50 percent. Younger men in particular, seem to face the greatest risk. Guys who downed more than 28 cups of Joe a week (an average of more than 4 a day) had a 56 percent increase in mortality from all causes. Surprisingly, for those over 55, excessive coffee consumption seemed to have no adverse effects.
The heavy coffee drinkers in the study were more likely to smoke and to have low levels of cardiovascular fitness. The researchers theorize that too much coffee may adversely affect the body's metabolism -- and that those with what they called a "genetic coffee addiction" are even more prone to the potentially negative effects.
And while more than four cups a day may sound like a lot, surveys by the National Coffee Association found that the average American has about three cups a day. Plus, don't forget that that Venti coffee you grab from Starbucks on your way to the office packs at least two regular cups into a convenient to-go size. Maybe you just shouldn't go back for a second round mid-morning.

What your workspace says about you
No such thing as sex addiction: Study
Maybe the brand of razor they used?
Cocoa or Fruity Pebbles?
Mortality from "all" causes?
So maybe some of these coffee drinkers had long commutes, they drank 4 cups of coffee but died in crashes. Was this the coffee or traffic?
Americans are known for our coffee habits, why is it surprising that in any study, a majority of the participants are heavy coffee drinkers?
Do a study on boxers or briefs, include the coffee drinking habits of the participants, and you may be able to conclude that 4 cup a day coffee drinkers prefer to go commando...
Stupid study probably done at the expense to the taxpayer.
Anything can kill you, normal people have known that for years without needing studies.
Science has proven long ago that living is hazardous to your health--for reasons as yet undiscovered, everybody dies sometime.
This is probably a study financed by some anti-coffee or anti-caffeine group or other.My Dad is 78 and has drunk an astounding 3 pots of coffee a day since his late 20's.
Hey, oxygen--you know, that stuff we need to breathe to live?--is, well...an oxidant.
The very air we need to live is killing us.
How about people not worry so much?
Epidemiologists would tell you that what this "huge study" has discovered is a correlation, but not necessarily a cause. Let me give an example. It can easily be proven that people living in rented apartments have a higher level of obesity than people who live in their own houses, so obesity is correlated with renting. Does renting cause obesity? Of course not. Lower income is the cause of the higher incidence of obesity (due to poor nutrition) as well as the higher incidence of not being able to afford a house.
In the case of the coffee/premature death correlation, one possible explanation (among many) is implied by the author's statement that "The heavy coffee drinkers in the study were more likely to smoke and to have low levels of cardiovascular fitness." And you still blame the coffee?
Telling those sedentary cigarette smokers that quitting coffee wil magically reduce their risk of premature death is Peter Pan thinking.

In the 2012 NFL draft the Miami Dolphins drafted a franchise QB, a new right tackle, and potential projects in Oliver Vernon and Michael Egnew in rounds 1 through 3. In round 4 (pick 97 overall) a familiar name to the Miami area was still on the board. A former star for Miami Killian High School. A former star for the Miami Hurricanes. 21 year old Miami native Lamar Miller. Dolphins landed a potential steal here.
Word is his NFL days are off to a strong start. A lot of buzz is coming out of Davie, Florida. Fans, media, coaches, teammates etc. On the depth chart Miller would surely be behind Reggie Bush, likely behind Daniel Thomas as well. It would seem that because Steve Slaton is in great shape he could be in the mix for the #3 running back with Miller. The word is out there that Miller has legit tools, and is putting them on display. Daily. Consistently.
Miller can fly. He blazes a 4.4/40 yard dash. In his two years in college he had a 5.7 yards per carry average, and was a TD machine. Most of that while nursing a banged-up shoulder. As a ball carrier Miller is quick to the hole, and sneaky/shifty. As far as catching the ball out of the backfield he has good hands, and good receiving ability. Offensive coordinator Mike Sherman is sure to value the skill-set Miller has. He is a legitimate home-run threat with every touch he gets for this west-coast offense. He is fast to the outside, and will not be brought down from behind if he gets going. The zone-blocking that Miami will use should work well for Miller too.
For Miller to really climb the depth chart and top Thomas he will have to improve his pass blocking skills. As with most rookie RBs he will need to improve his blitz pick-up ability to the next level. He is doing so well currently that he may be the 3rd down RB. If he can improve the pass-blocking aspect of his game he may have a chance to get a lot of playing time. Coach Sherman will want to use Bush's skill-set as a WR at times. Those are snaps/opportunities to have even more playing time for Miller, but Miami will need to be confident that he can support both the run and the pass.
WR coach Ken O'Keefe makes his NFL coaching debut with the 2012 Dolphins, and he is working with both Bush and Miller. That is possibly further evidence that Miller is getting more and more confidence from the new regime, and could be a difference maker for the Dolphins soon. O'Keefe can help develop his already solid receiving game, giving even more opportunities in the west-coast offense for Miller.
We will watch Lamar Miller closely as the pre-season schedule kicks-off for the 2012 Miami Dolphins.
