I have always found comfort and happiness when I was busy designing and creating. I have many interests and talents and often I am torn when deciding which art medium to work creatively in. Decorative painting is my first love; however, I also enjoy stenciling, jewelry making, sewing, crochet, needlework of all kinds, cooking, card making, faux finishes, decorating and gardening. Working in the craft and hobby industry for many years, I have enjoyed the pleasures of traveling, teaching, and sharing with others basic crafting how-tos! Currently, I am employed as the Marketing Education Director at Plaid. My career journey to this day, is still allowing me the gift of sharing with others the joys of crafting and finding their creative spirits! I hope that our creative paths may cross one day. Until then... happy creating!

Floral Doily Kitchen Canisters and Dish Towels Instructions:
1. The silkscreened trio of glass kitchen canisters was decorated using a combination of Blue Sky and Wedding Cake Satin paint. Allow each color ample drying time prior to overlapping silkscreen designs.
2. Metal canister lids were spray painted Sterling Metallic paint.
3. Sterling Metallic paint was also used to silkscreen the cotton dish towels. NOTE: mix two parts paint with one part Martha Stewart Crafts Fabric Medium before silkscreening. Using fabric medium will help keep the decorated fabric soft when dry.
Preparation Instructions:
1. To prepare glass surfaces: wash glass in warm soapy water to thoroughly clean, rinse well and allow to dry. Moisten paper towels with rubbing alcohol and wipe over cleaned glass to remove any remaining dirt, grease or soap film. Allow to dry.
2. To prepare fabric surfaces: prewash and dry being careful not to use fabric softeners or dryer sheets. If needed, iron wrinkles without using a spray starch.
3. Metal canister lids may be spray painted a color using Martha Stewart Crafts Spray Paint System.
4. Using scissors, cut silkscreen designs apart following printed division lines.
5. Peel silkscreen from backing sheet; set backing aside and save for silkscreen storage.
6. Position silk screen on project surface where desired; press in place. If desired, add a section of stencil tape to help hold silkscreen in place.
Silkscreen Painting Instructions:
1. Apply paint through silkscreen using either the Squeegee Tool Technique or the Foam Pouncer Tool Technique.
Squeegee Tool Technique – Squeeze a small amount of paint onto solid edge of silkscreen. Holding squeegee tool at a 45° angle with light pressure, pull the paint across the opening of the silkscreen. Continue painting until the entire design area has been silkscreened. Set squeegee aside in container of water for cleaning. Immediately, while paint is still wet, neatly and carefully lift silkscreen by peeling away from the project surface. NOTE: Be careful not to drag silkscreen while removing it as your painted design may be blurred.
Foam Pouncer Tool Technique – Squeeze a small amount of paint onto foam plate. Load the flat bottom edge of the foam pouncer with paint by dabbing into the puddle of paint. Dab a few times more on a clean spot on the foam plate to ensure you have the entire foam pouncer loaded properly. Holding the foam pouncer as you would a pencil, begin dabbing straight up and down over the opening of the silkscreen. Continue painting until the entire design area has been painted. Set foam pouncer aside in container of water for cleaning. Immediately while paint is still wet, neatly and carefully lift silkscreen by peeling away from the project surface. NOTE: Be careful not to drag silkscreen while removing it as your painted design may be blurred.
2. Continue adding silkscreen designs over surface until desired effect is achieved. NOTE: When repeating a design, it is best to clean the silkscreen between uses by rinsing in water and allowing the silkscreen to dry thoroughly.
3. Set completed project aside for 1 hour to thoroughly dry.
Curing Instructions:
1. All project surfaces painted with Martha Stewart Crafts Multi-Surface Paints should be cured to increase the paint's durability. Follow either the Bake to Cure Technique when decorating a glass or ceramic surface, the Air Cure Technique when decorating wood, terra cotta, paper mache or tin and use the Heat Setting to Cure Technique when decorating fabrics.
Bake to Cure Technique – Set dry silkscreened glassware into cool oven. Set oven to 350°F and bake for 30 minutes. Glass must heat gradually with the oven to avoid breakage. Do NOT place glass in a hot oven. After 30 minutes, turn the oven off. Allow glass to cool completely in oven. Wait 72 hours before using. NOTE: Glitter Glass Paints should not be baked to cure; only use air cure technique when painting with glitter paints.
Air Cure Technique – Air dry completed project for 21 days before using. NOTE: Glitter Glass Paints should not be baked to cure; only use air cure technique when painting with glitter paints.
Heat Setting to Cure Technique – Allow your decorated fabric to air dry 24 hours then heat set using either one of two recommended methods.
Dryer Method – Turn garment inside out; place item in dryer for 30 minutes on highest setting allowed for the type of fabric used.
Iron Method – Place decorated item right side up on ironing board; cover with dry pressing cloth. Set iron to highest setting allowed for fabric used. Place dry iron (no steam) on area pressing for 30 seconds, lift iron moving to another area until all sections are heat set.

Many people were surely unhappy when Casey Anthony was found not guilty of the murder of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. Others believed she was innocent. Was there once piece of evidence, somehow left out of the trial, that could have changed everyone's minds? A local Orlando TV station says that for weeks, Casey's defense team waited with dread for the prosecution to bring up a key piece of damning evidence: Casey had reportedly done a search on the family computer for "fool-proof suffication" the same day of Caylee's death. (Yes, she -- provided it really was her -- even misspelled the word.) But the prosecution never brought this up. Why? And if they had, could it have changed the verdict?
Casey's main lawyer, Jose Baez, first brought up the search in his book, Presumed Guilty. However, he blames the search on Casey's father George -- saying he was looking up how to kill himself after Caylee was found drowned.
But the Orlando station, Local 6, says that it was most likely Casey who conducted the search, not her father. Their investigation reportedly shows that Casey's dad was at work at the time of the search, while Casey's cell phone was pinging off a nearby tower, showing that she most likely would have been home at the time.
The user of the computer searched for "fool-proof suffication" and then went to a site that advises people looking to commit suicide to poison themselves and then suffocate themselves with a plastic bag. It was this exact method of death that the state claimed Caylee suffered.
And then, possibly most damning, right after that site, the user then visits MySpace -- a site Casey was known to visit. Not George.
But apparently the prosecution didn't even know about this additional evidence. When Local 6 approached the prosecutor Jeff Ashton with it, he said, "It's just a shame we didn't have it. This certainly would have put the accidental death claim in serious question."
But would it have? I'm not an expert on the trial, but as I recall there were a lot of strange computer searches that were brought into evidence, such as many searches on the word "chloroform," but Baez was always able to explain it away. So I'm not sure this one search term would have made much of a difference. But you never know.
Do you think this new piece of evidence would have mattered?

:( I lived down the street from this psycho and we moved due to all the traffic and helicopters and protesters and what not this trial brought out. I hope that women rots in hell for what she did to that poor child and to her family for throwing them under the bus like that :/
but sadly no, I doubt it would have helped. The whole case was a mess from the start and poor Calyee will never have the justice she deserves.
That's one thing that Prosecutors need to learn: effective defense lawyers (I didn't say 'good' ones) know how to work a jury, pandering to them with personal and emotional appeals and diversions. Prosecutors are so sure they'll win the day on the "facts" alone when everyone knows that's not where real life is lived, and decisions are made.
The jury did not do their duty by connecting inferences — actually thinking — and would have rendered a different outcome. But Baez was too successful in building smokescreens, and putting the Prosecution on the defensive. Not to mention realistically she was overcharged based on any theory they could prove, so...
Also the Prosecution lost a little credibility when the 84 internet searches for chloroform turned out to be 1, the rest were internal extrapolations. And Cindy explained the rest away. So, any more computer-related activities wouldn't have carried much weight.
Never have I been an audience to watching people lie their way thru life and to that unjust verdict as I did with this trial. I hope never to witness anything like that again. Beyond sick and sickening. The trial fustercluck of the century.
The facts are that the jury DID do their job. They did what they were supposed to do, look at the facts presented at trial. And based on that, and that alone, they did the right thing. They deserve to be applauded, not raked over the coals. The prosecution failed greately in their jobs, they did NOT present a well planned, air tight case. They should have waited until they had everything figured out before they took her to trial. They are who should be blamed for what happened, not the jury.

text: Free-to-play game developers explain their secrets Gaming 29 March 12 by Mark Brown Tweet NaturalMotion It's not that surprising that there's now an entire event dedicated to free-to-play (F2P) games. The business model where you download a game for free and then get the option to pay for bonus bits and bobs inside.This is the model, after all, which provides Japan-based Gree some $20 million (£12 million) a month from just one game. The one that's given the 10-year-old Runescape its 195 million player userbase, and has half a million people tending to their virtual nag in MyHorse every day.Pioneers of the concept -- including developers Ng:moco and Natural Motion, platform holder GREE and monetisation outfit Tapjoy -- revealed their secrets at the F2P summit in London. Wired.co.uk was there, and here's what we learned. We'll be App Store billionaires in no time. Maybe.Engineer and analyse Judging by the terminology used at the F2P summit, free games aren't designed or developed: they're engineered. Everything from the design of the buy button to the layout of the shop to the opening tutorial must be carefully tweaked and iterated to get the most money out of players."These things are a science, essentially," says Rob Smith, VP of operations at Runescape developer Jagex. He's talking about the screens and systems that funnel players into a game, and then get them to load up the app again later.The best way to know what works is rampant analytics. The A-word was on everyone's tongue, from companies dedicated to providing analytics, to Gree boasting about its 100-strong analytics team."You should spend time daily looking at your dashboard of stats. Your average revenue per user, the percentage of paying users, the retention", explains Struan Robertston of NaturalMotion Games, which recently ditched paid apps in favour of free to play MyHorse. "Those are the needles you're looking to move when you're doing something new with the game.""Our players will know best," says Jagex's Smith. "You'll learn a lot more from two weeks of live content with your userbase playing it than you would from five months of quality assurance."Sometimes, unexpected things will arise in your community. "When we introduced clans and capes into the game, we had people forming a Mexican wrestling league. That was not what we ever expected with the game. We've got people who are tour guides, people who do bake sales for other players."Save your whales "Anyone who operates a free to play game will tell you these tales of players, who could be in the tens or in the hundreds or in the thousands, who have spent several thousands of dollars, in a game," says Ben Cousins, general manager of Ng:moco Sweden. These high-spending players are given two names by free to play developers: "VIPs", or the rather less dignified "Whales". Cousins argues that these people aren't being exploited by the limitless spending potential of a freemium game. "These are smart people. They're engaged, passionate gamers who just happen to have found their big hobby in life -- playing this specific game."

Hey everybody,
I wanted to update you on a few things that are important to my heart and brain and my cute, cute butt:
First of all, applications for the NYU Game Center MFA program's 2nd year are now open. If you're a cool person who loves games and wants to explore the potential of an extremely important craft and art form, you should apply. I'm having an amazing time and meeting really great people in this program.
Second, my dear, dear bro Ramiro and a few other amazing game designers have started a kickstarter for THE BEST MULTIPLAYER GAMES in a long time. Probably the best local multiplayer games since Smash: Melee there I said it. Please support it.
And third but far from least, other bro Adam Robezzoli is working with Daniel Rehn to start the LA Game Space, which is so exciting that it makes me want to cry? It looks so amazing. Holy Eff you guys.

Fort Collins, CO (Sports Network) - Wes Eikmeier led the way with 21 points, as the Colorado State Rams defeated the St. Bonaventure Bonnies in a non- conference matchup at Moby Arena.
For the Rams (13-2), Dorian Green added 19 points, Colton Iverson posted a double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds and Pierce Hornung pulled down 13 rebounds.
St. Bonaventure (7-6) was led by Matthew Wright with 12 points, while Charlon Kloof and Chris Johnson each chipped in with 10 points.
The Rams took a 46-28 advantage into intermission by connecting on 56.7 percent of their field goal attempts, including 6-of-11 from 3-point distance. The Bonnies had no such success from the floor, shooting just 29.6 percent, though they did hit on 4-of-10 from beyond the 3-point arc in the first half. The Rams put the Bonnies in the early hole by opening the game on a 19-2 run.
Colorado State continued to shoot the ball well after halftime, making 48 percent of its field goal attempts, though the Rams did miss all five of their 3-point attempts. St. Bonaventure's shooting improved somewhat, though its 38.9 percent from the field wasn't enough to catch up to the Rams, who won their seventh straight.
The Rams owned the paint, outscoring the Bonnies 42-20 down low. The Bonnies were able to score 18 points off of 11 Ram turnovers.

What if Super Mario Bros on the NES was'nt originally a hit? What if Mario did'nt evolve thru the years, becoming ever more popular, with his look becoming more and more refined and friendly? What if all we had to remind us was just the original sprites, no coverarts or official artwork. How would you remember him? A chubby and happy determined Italian Plumber or just some old-looking player wearing red overalls?
With that in mind, I came with this idea... How would look in an HD version of Super Mario Bros created today taking in consideration just the 1985 sprites? Well, that's how I think it would all look!

BINTM 2012: Anna Vokes 'I'm a weirdo but that's never stopped me!'
In the second week of Britain And Ireland's Next Top Model, Anna Vokes was one of the three models who got sent home - we caught up with her to chat about being on the show.
Having watched every series of Britain And Ireland's Next Top Model, nothing should shock us. But Elle Macpherson's decision to send three of models home took us by surprise! Self-proclaimed weirdo, Anna V, was sent home along with Diona and Louisa and failed to make it into the BINTM house.
We chatted to Anna about her friendship with Elle, working with the other girls and being a role model for young girls.
Was your experience on BINTM everything that you said it would be?
It's different, but I enjoyed every second of it.
How was it different to how you expected it to be?
Just how long the days are. A couple of days are being crammed into an hour - as soon as you wake up and right through until you go to sleep, it's filming, filming, filming. It's worrying, because you wonder what they're going to show on the show.
How did you find doing the two photo shoots?
It's lovely to have your hair and makeup done and put some fabulous clothing on. The photo shoots were both really nice. Although, we were supposed to be on a camel on our second one, but it changed literally on the morning, but it ended up being a lovely Arabian Nights themed shoot.

John o' Groats is situated at the northernmost tip of Scotland, and a small sign in the harbor says "Land's End 876 miles." Nice geography lesson, but car enthusiasts should note that this sparsely populated area is also home to some of the most spectacular driving roads in Britain.
The A9 runs up the coast from Wick to John 'o Groats, past Dunnet Head, before becoming the A836. On its way, the views are spectacular, but if you are going as fast as I am today, you need to keep your eyes bolted firmly on the road. Crests, dips, fast turns and some very long straights are all on the menu, and the Alfa Romeo 156 GTA is lapping it all up with a raw ability and exuberance seldom encountered in increasingly capable but characterless modern cars.
GTA. That's an old moniker, but a distinctly Alfa one-1969 was the year when it was applied to the neat little Bertone coupe that went racing and won countless events. In later GTAM form, the car became a racing legend.
Heady stuff that, and with such a mighty reputation to live up to, you can be sure Alfa Romeo does not apply the GTA badge lightly. It was right to hold it back all these years, waiting for a worthy successor to wear it with pride and confidence.
For Alfa fans, the wait has been well worth it. Plain and simple, with its 250-bhp 3.2-liter V6, the new 156 GTA is the most inspirational front-wheel-drive car I have ever driven. That it is also the fastest production Alfa Romeo ever is almost incidental.
A front-wheel-drive car with 250 bhp would normally be a recipe for torque steer and all kinds of other handling woes. Cadillac's 300-bhp Northstar V8 engine creates havoc in its front-drivers, and tuning VW Golfs beyond 200 bhp quickly shows up the shortcomings of MacPherson strut front suspension.
I pondered this as I pushed the Alfa GTA harder and harder through the turns, looking for signs of misbehavior. Coming out of one tight, uphill right-hander, I deliberately floored the throttle early to try and provoke the front end. On the dry surface, grip from the 225/45ZR17 Michelin tires on 7.5Jx17-in. alloys was enormous. Although the traction-control light flashed for an instant, the uprated double-wishbone front suspension hunkered down, converting engine output to forward motion with hardly a wiggle through the steering wheel.
You can tell this car is aimed at serious drivers, because the ASR traction control has some tolerance dialed in so it does not shut down proceedings at the merest hint of slip at the front wheels. It does curb excessive wheelspin but helps you make maximum progress by allowing some degree of throttle steer.
The front end is very pointy. Just 1.75 turns lock-to-lock make the rack-and-pinion steering significantly quicker than the 2.2 turns of the normal 156, already strong in steering response and feel. On the other hand, because the rest of the chassis has been uprated to suit, the GTA remains totally balanced and never nervous when turning-in, even at high speeds under braking. The only downside to the quick steering rack and larger rubber is the turning circle restriction I discovered in a car park.
As I was shown in a rather spectacular racetrack video sequence narrated by Alfa's chief test driver, you can throw the GTA into a corner sideways and opposite lock it on power almost like a rear driver! I stopped short of that on public roads, but, on the other hand, racetracks are smooth and some of the bumps and crests of these Scottish byways were already testing the chassis to its limits in the vertical plane. On a very fast dip with bumps involved, I did manage to bottom the car, but at that point I was really trying!
As the miles rolled by under the GTA's wheels, I also had time to reflect on how supple the ride is despite all the lowering and stiffening work. The car is taut but never jittery at low speeds, and as you pick up the pace, things smoothen out and everything snaps into focus. Porsches are like that, too, and it is a consistent characteristic of really fast cars.
Development engineer Lorenzo Minelli was on hand to explain the changes. "The basic 156 suspension is double wishbone in front and MacPherson strut beam axle at the rear with anti-dive, anti-squat geometry. The uprated suspension is a mix of production 156 and some new parts," he said. "The lower arms and uprights are pressed steel, the upper ones alloy. The springs are the same rate as the 2.5-liter V6 156, but shorter," he continued. "The dampers are uprated, so the front and rear end up 30 and 40 percent stiffer. The anti-roll-bar diameter has been increased to 23mm and 17mm front and rear, which is 1mm up from the normal 156 2.5 V6."
To help contain the much greater power and torque, two reinforcing struts are solid mounted between the front subframe and the bodyshell. The GTA also has different suspension top mounts and bump stops. The car weighs about the same, and the 3.2-liter engine is only about 10kg heavier. On the other hand, the new alloy wheels are lighter.
"Understeer is very linear as you approach the limit," Lorenzo explained. "We needed to balance out the quick steering, so the kinematics were changed by taking the steering closer to pure Ackerman. The inclination of the rear beam axle is greater. and we have more stabilizing toe-in per degree of lateral force with progressive rear bushes. The castor angle is the same, but we actually reduced negative camber at the front from 1 degree 20 minutes to just 15 minutes."
It all works very well in practice, and contains the 250 rampant cavallini very well indeed. Going from 2.5 to 3.2 liters is a massive jump for the 156, and the base motor is the 3.0-liter V6 from the larger 166 saloon and the GTV coupe.
"The block itself is unchanged, and we achieved the capacity increase with a new long-throw crankshaft, and lightened and balanced rods and shorter pistons," Lorenzo explained. "The new camshafts have higher lift, 9.3mm for both intake and exhaust, and compression ratio is up to 11.3:1, so 98 octane super unleaded is a must. We retain the hydraulic tappet, and there is no variable valve timing arrangement. Finally, the Bosch M3.1 engine management system has been reprogrammed to cope."
The car I drove had the six-speed manual transmission, which proved swift and positive, but you can also opt for the Selespeed clutchless shifter. Made by Magneti Marelli, its paddle shifter makes life easier on mountain roads strewn with hairpin bends, as well as in heavy traffic. I personally like it even if many motoring writers seem unable to get to grips with the concept. The GTA's Selespeed system has been recalibrated for faster shifts, and the mechanical components have been beefed up to take the greater torque of the 3.2-liter motor.
This 3179cc V6 is one of the best engines I have ever driven. Creamy smooth from DC to light, it burbles into life with a fruity howl and then orchestrates a fabulous multi-layered warble from off idle to the redline and beyond. It is pure mechanical music that makes enthusiasts swoon with ecstasy.
The lighter internals certainly play a significant role, as this motor revs faster than other Alfa motors despite its larger capacity. It is still so smooth as you approach 7000 rpm, it gives the impression there is still more to come. The 250 bhp is developed at 6200 rpm and 221 lb-ft of torque at 4800 rpm, but the beefy torque curve and crisp throttle response ensure that impressive urge is present right across the rev band.
Against the stopwatch, the GTA delivers. The clocks stopped at 6.3 sec. for the 0-to-60-mph dash, and top speed is 155 mph. In the real world, this car is as quick as you would want to go in a front-wheel-driver.
The Alfa Romeo 156 GTA faces stiff competition from the BMW 325i Sport and the Audi A4 3.0 quattro, which sell for similar money. The Alfa is quicker than its rivals and far more inspirational than the competent and beautifully built, but rather anodyne, Audi. Even the BMW, quintessential rear-wheel-driver, struggles to match the Alfa for motor music and sheer fun factor. The latest Alfas are well-made and potentially reliable, so you can now make a choice with your head as well as your heart. However, once you have driven it, the GTA tugs at your heartstrings very strongly indeed. You have been warned.

With one third of the population suffering from chronic or long term illness rising to 70% in people over 70, it is not surprising that the industry is so vast and makes a substantial contribution to the British economy and more importantly brings major health benefits to the United Kingdom and the rest of the world.

I've always wanted the option to do this as well. I've recently been playing Dragon Nest which just came out of its open beta test and fully launched recently. In Dragon Nest there are devices called extractors that sit outside every dungeon portal that let you put unwanted greens and blues and oranges (WoW purples) into it along with a bit of money and it spits out crafting materials or comet dust which let you purchase items that make your weapons and armor better.

Joe Sims says his infant daughter is living proof car seats save lives.Nine-month-old Morgan Howell-Sims was in the seat next to her dad when he apparently suffered a seizure and crashed nearly two weeks ago.Sims' pick-up truck veered off James Campbell Boulevard in Columbia before traveling down a steep embankment and crashing into a drainage ditch.Sims, 45, was flown to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The little girl was carried away without a cut on her body. She was laughing and in good spirits, according to first responders.
"She's here for a reason and we're here to take care of her," said Sims.
Most of the damage to the truck was on Morgan's side. The seat was full of broken glass."Car seats work," said Sims. "We don't pull out of the driveway without making sure she is in hers and is strapped in."Sims has a broken collarbone, a broken sternum and cuts and bruises all over his body.The father told Nashville's News 2 he suffered a couple of seizures several years ago, but never while he was driving. Doctors are trying to figure out what caused this one.
Sims was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.

BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC (WECT) – There are nearly a dozen fires under investigation in Brunswick County dating back to the beginning of the summer.
Authorities are currently trying to determine which ones were accidental and which ones look suspicious.
For two Brunswick County women, the fire that ravaged their home in Civietown took more than just their house -- it ruined the memories of their father.
Emily Riddle and Gale Hodges are the proud daughters of Henry Williams, a World War II veteran who earned four battle stars, a Purple Heart, and even wrote a book about combat in the war. Together, they spent most of their childhood at a home built by their father back in the 1970s.
"His favorite place was the back porch, we had cookouts, and his grand kids could come over," said Hodges. "It was like a hide-away and very peaceful," said Riddle.
But lately, it hasn't been such a peaceful place for this family. A robber took a lot of Williams' war memorabilia a few years ago. Then a few weeks ago, tragedy struck again when a massive blaze burned the house to the ground.
Riddle and Hodges believe someone may have intentionally set the house on fire.
"It's a mixture of pure anger mixed with great sadness," said Hodges.
"We associated the cabin with Dad and now it's just gone," said Riddle. "I just don't understand why someone would do this."
Digging through the rubble, you can still find old war mementoes. But after losing so many sentimental items, the once proud daughters are now feeling remorseful.
"It feels like we attend a funeral when we come down and see this," said Riddle. "This was all that we have left of Dad."
The fire is still under investigation. Authorities have not yet determined the cause of the fire. If you have any information, contact the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office. As for the other fires under investigation, authorities do not believe they are related in any way.

The (TIPS) clinic serves children under age 6 with emotional, behavioral and developmental difficulties. Families are referred to the clinic by their existing pediatricians, schools or therapists, but self-referrals also are accepted. Children can suffer from the same psychiatric illnesses as adults — such as anxiety disorders, depressive disorders or attention deficit hyperactivity disorders — but children's presentation is often widely different. Children are not simply little adults. Special training and expertise is required when evaluating younger children for psychiatric disorders. Evaluations are often more lengthy that those in adolescents or adults and involve gathering information from collateral sources such as the child's day care, school or existing therapists. It is natural for children to have tantrums or meltdowns, but when the distressing behavior occurs frequently or causes impairment at home or at school, parents are encouraged to look further into causes by either talking to their pediatrician, school or other health care providers.
Signs of behavioral and emotional difficulties in younger children include the following:
Below are some of the psychiatric diagnoses in children:
Below are some of the therapeutic interventions used for treatment of psychiatric disorders in children:
What to expect at the time of appointment:
Initial assessments are on average for 90 minutes. Mojgan Makki, MD, will meet the child and the child's family together at first but will spend time alone with the parent or, if needed, with the child. At times children may be too anxious to do this, which will be honored and respected. We understand that by the time children and families come to us often they are under great deal of stress, and we hope to make the process as peaceful and non-stressful as possible.
During the initial visit, you will be asked a broad range of biological, psychological and developmental clinical questions, because many factors such as genetics, environmental, social and family dynamics, or past exposure to trauma can affect a child's growth. If needed, further laboratory, psychological and educational tests will be ordered.
Families are encouraged to arrive 30 minutes prior to the appointment to complete the initial paperwork. They should bring all available documentation pertaining to any prior psychiatric, medical or school evaluations and treatments to the appointment. If the child has an existing Individualized Educational Plan, families are encouraged to bring a copy. Families should also bring a list of medications the child has taken currently or previously, including prescription and over-the-counter medications along with supplements.
Referrals and consultations:
For referrals and consultations, sources are encouraged to clarify whether the referral is for comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, treatment recommendation and medication management or a one-time consultation. Referrals are encouraged to mention any specific issues they would like to have addressed. Referral sources also are encouraged to include their contact information and preferred method of communication at the time of referral. We will contact the referral source after the initial appointment is completed. For a preselected fee, the clinic will provide the referral sources with a comprehensive summary of evaluation, impression and any treatment recommendations if required.
End of initial evaluation:
At the end of the initial evaluation, Makki provides a summary of her impression and her treatment recommendations. She may need more time for assessment or to talk with those involved in the child's care, such as the existing therapist, schools or family members. She may ask to meet with the family for the second appointment before she finalizes her impression and recommendations. She may also recommend further testing including a laboratory blood test, EEG or EKG.
For treatment, Makki may recommend psychotherapy, medication management or a combination of treatment options. The child will continue to see Makki in her clinic for medication management for as long as needed. If medication is started, she may request to see the child in her office in one to two weeks. She also encourages families to call for a quick telephone follow-up in between the appointments and as needed. Once the child is stabilized, visits are scheduled with more time in between the appointments.
Makki may refer the child and the family to one of our therapists at Rush. If the family is already working with a psychotherapist, speech or occupational therapist, she will continue to work with that therapist. How to make your initial appointment:
To make your initial appointment or if you have any other questions, please call Alejandro Mora at (312) 942-KIDS (5437).
Mojgan Makki, MD, is assistant professor and director of the TIPS clinic. Clinical services include assessment and treatment of children ages 6 and under with severe emotional, behavioral and developmental difficulties. Her expertise includes complicated psychiatric evaluations and medication management. She has special interest in forensic, school and child custody evaluations.

How to play a federal debt default
If it happens, look to these companies to keep your portfolio alive.
For some companies, a federal default, or at least a whiff of it, is a terrible thing to waste. There are companies that are so itching to get their hands on their own stock that any pending sell-off might be a remarkable moment for them, as they know their businesses won't be that badly affected by even an actual default, because they think they have seen the movie before when Lehman Bros. defaulted.
So I think they will buy with both hands, knowing that eventually the government will cure the default, even if it's painful and while nothing saved us from Lehman and the money just vanished.
Now, let's understand each other. A default, an out-and-out default, would be cataclysmic, and I think the president will not risk being the only president ever to default on the national debt. When historians look back, they won't remember the speaker of the House; they will remember the president. That's a weighty thing to be tabbed with. But as long as the interest on the debt keeps being paid, in some form or another, even if it means other services really are shut and other payouts really are curtailed, there will be no default.
The economy would be crushed. Of that, there can be little doubt. You can't have the $60 billion a day that the government pays out, at least according to the Treasury secretary, not spent and think the economy won't collapse. That's just a gigantic swath of checks that would no longer be in the mail.
At that point, the economic pain would be too hard for even the most obstinate of those who refuse to vote in favor of a debt ceiling increase, so we have to figure things will finally budge. Obviously, we hope it never gets to that. But the idea that it is as unlikely as a meteor hitting Washington, D.C., or a 1-in-10 million shot or whatever hyperbole we keep hearing, just flies in the face of the anger, bitterness and rancor that match the level of partisanship at the time of the Civil War.
In fact, the amazing thing about this moment is how so few people are worried about it, not how many are. And that's probably a mistake, given the intense hatred that has basically thrown the playbook out the window. The playbook comes back into the window when the economy really gets hurt, though, although it would be really hard to tell without government data. Somehow, I think we would feel it.
Now many companies will claim they want to take a longer-term view and sit and wait. But some companies like to take a short-term view, which is why they will take action right into whatever occurs. I say "whatever" because we really don't know what will occur.
Who has that luxury?
There are a handful of companies that truly love a crisis and use it to get their stocks at phenomenal prices. The executives have faith in themselves. The executives have faith in their companies. We know their buybacks are backed by the full faith and credit of their enterprises.
First up? I think it has to be GameStop (GME). When everyone, including yours truly, was scared to death about a gaming business that had to be in secular decline and with Amazon (AMZN) picking up whatever's left of the sales, what did the world's largest gaming retailer do? How about pay down all of its debt and buy back about a third of the company. That's right, just when everyone was fretting, GameStop, run by Paul Raines, took a look at the world and declared it good. Paul knew that the hardware game cycle was about to kick in.
He realized that he could take share from whoever was left. He understood that the new iterations of games were amazing. He anticipated all of this and bought back a ton of stock at much lower prices. Now that the new Microsoft (MSFT) and Sony (SNE) machines are almost in the stores and "Grand Theft Auto" is proving to be the greatest money-making game of all time, do you think he's going to sit on his hands as the stock comes in? I think he sits there and buys with both hands, especially given that he thinks 2014 is going to be good and 2015 is better.
Don't forget, this company has a substantial European business that has just started to get better. And GameStop is one of only 24 companies in the S&P 500 with no debt, although it is the only one I would not be worried about when it comes to a debt-related recession. Thirty-one million loyal gamers are not walking away from GameStop just when the getting's good.
Next up? How about these incredible media stocks? Take a look at the amount of stock that's been bought in at Viacom (VIA.B). About 716 million shares were outstanding just before the beginning of the great recession. Now? How about 491 million shares? This company, with fabulous cable brands, just prints money and then it uses the money to buy back stock. It particularly likes to buy on bad days and it seems like the buyback isn't on autopilot. I bet Sumner Redstone's Viacom will be bidding for every share that comes in. Will CBS (CBS), another company owned by Redstone, be any different? I see the share count dropping to 624 billion now from 771 million in 2006 and that's going to continue to shrink if this debt-related artificial calamity occurs.
There must be something in the water at these media companies. Seven years ago, Time Warner (TWX) had 1.4 billion shares outstanding. Now it has 950 million. There' a company willing to buy in everything that moves. AOL (AOL), once owned, disastrously I might add, by Time Warner, in two years has taken share count to 81 million from 106 million. You should be in there with Jeff Bewkes and Tim Armstrong, as they have faith in their cash generation and are deploying that capital in a smart way.
How about Wyndham Worldwide (WYN)? Under Steve Holmes, this hospitality company just seems addicted to doing right by shareholders. Four years ago there were 182 million shares of Wyndham outstanding. Now there are 136 million for this hotel and time-share exchange company. Every time we have had Steve on, he has said the same thing. He's giving back the money to shareholders that the company doesn't need to grow. And that's why this one's such a long-term winner.
Finally, there's a company that hasn't done that well lately because the economy's a little too strong for its business: Autozone (AZO). The market's convinced that a too-strong economy makes it less likely that we will fix our cars ourselves and more likely that we will just go buy a new one. Meanwhile, Autozone doesn't care. It just takes that cash and keeps buying and when the economy downshifts, you will be glad they did. In six years the company has literally bought half the shares outstanding. Don't you think it will have a field day as the food fight in Washington continues? I think it will.
Monday I talked about dividends as a way to protect yourself, and I reiterate that those are terrific safety nets. But I think that when we look at the calendar, when we look at where we are in the year and how little time is left, it is reasonable to think that these large institutional buyers are well aware of the patterns I am talking about. They will be fighting with GameStop, Viacom, CBS, Time Warner, AOL, Wyndham Worldwide and Autozone for every share. Which is why these are natural places to be bidding on cataclysmic days. If the companies weren't worried and bought all through the Great Recession, which was real and lasting, don't you think they will be buying through the debt ceiling debacle, which is phony and not lasting?
Yeah, me too.

The gov needs to do its job, set priorities, fund what is necessary and what it can afford, and trim the rest.
It didn't happen all at once, but the dream that was the United States of America, the Great Republic, has died. Other countries hostile to the idea of true freedom didn't cause it; it wasn't caused by a radical religious organization. The downfall of the United States was all from within its own borders, by its own people. The people, for whom others have died, have allowed the country to die a slow death. The me too, me first attitude that started many years ago, along with the idea that all are entitled to the fruits of others hard work, has allowed this country to bleed to death. When the British raised the tax on tea, our forefathers should have just shut up and paid the tax. Almost 240 years later, what has changed? Thousands have died for absolutely nothing.
Get out your own pencil and do your own financial math. If taxes were only on final consumption, when you buy $100 in groceries the taxes would be $5 for local taxes ( that is a bargain), $25 for state taxes (Utah), and $29 for federal taxes, plus $14 to pay off the federal debt (17 trillion, 5% interest, 15 years). That is $100 for groceries plus $73 in taxes. Those groceries cost you $173. Then add unfunded liabilities and there is no way we can pay the tax bill. Plus we have a short time to handle this or we are going to be too far in debt to ever get out. Bankruptcy does some wonderful things. 1. It removes obsolete management and ideas. (Our political and economic structure will change completely) 2. It reevaluates and redistributes the assets. (Housing, stock market, farmland, etc.) 3. It wipes out the creditors. (A Treasury note and toilet paper will have the same value). For God sake America wake up, we are the ones responsible, not the government, and we are the ones that are going to be in deep sh**.
But sure, the idiots know what's coming. We better hope not. They are preparing for Doomsday, what about the rest of the World.

Medical Support
Medical Support in General
Medical support is a form of child support often provided as health care insurance, although it can take other forms such as additional amounts to cover a portion of ongoing medical bills or as reimbursement for uninsured medical costs. The court order may require your employee to provide health insurance for his/her dependents. Current law requires that every child support order enforced by a state Child Support Enforcement (CSE) agency include a provision for health care coverage. The court may order either or both parents to provide the health care coverage for the children. (WVCODE 48-12-102) When the noncustodial parent is ordered to provide the health insurance, State CSE agencies are required to pursue private health care coverage when such coverage is available through the noncustodial parent's employer at a reasonable cost. (WVCODE 48-12-101)
National Medical Support Notice
The National Medical Support Notice (NMSN) [National Medical Support Notice] is a notice sent to employers from the state child support enforcement agency to ensure that children receive health care coverage when it is available and required as a part of the child support order. [WVCODE 48-12-104] The notice is considered under ERISA to be a Qualified Medical Child Support Order, or QMCSO. [WVCODE 48-12-101 (9)]
The NMSN has two parts along with instructions: Part A and Part B. Part A is completed by the child support enforcement agency and sent to you with the rest of the packet. The "Employer Response" section of Part A allows you to respond to the notice in the following situations:
If 1, 2, 3, or 4 does not apply, then Part B of the notice is to be forwarded to your health care plan administrator for handling. The plan administrator will notify you when enrollment has been completed. You must then notify your payroll department to make the appropriate deductions for employee contributions required under the health plan. It is at this point that you may determine whether the total deductions exceed the maximum allowed under the Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA) and any applicable state law.
If the amount of child support plus the deduction for the health care premium exceeds the maximum deduction allowable, state law in the state where the employee is employed determines the priority for payment. If the CCPA limits preclude payment of ongoing support and health care premiums and the state's priority scheme does not allow payment of the health care premium first, you must notify the issuing agency by completing #5 on the Employer Response form and sending the form to the agency.
A few of the employer's responsibilities include
Consumer Credit Protect Act (CCPA)
The CCPA limits are expressed as a percentage of the noncustodial parent's disposable income from which child support can be withheld. In West Virginia, the CCPA limitation for withholding health care premiums is between 50% and 65% of the noncustodial parent's disposable income. [WVCODE 48-12-112] The CCPA limitation for withholding cash child support obligations is between 40% and 55% of the noncustodial parent's disposable income. [WVCODE 48-14-408]
Priority for Withholding
The total amount to be withheld for both child support and medical support – the amount of cash child support plus the amount of the health insurance premium – must fall within the CCPA limits. If the total exceeds the CCPA, the employer must follow the prioritization required under state law in the state where the employee is employed to determine whether cash or medical support should be paid first. [State Medical Support Contacts – Medical Support Matrix]
West Virginia law requires that priority be given to payment of the cash child support before deducting for the health insurance premium. [WVCODE 48-12-108]

Blender Wheat Pancakes
Nothing says whole wheat pancakes more than blender wheat pancakes. If you haven't tried this yet, its really quite easy. While I prefer to use our homemade pancake mix, this is a nice change. It makes great tasting fluffy pancakes that my family just loves, and it helps us to get through our 300 lbs of whole wheat.
Many people have posted different recipes for blender pancakes, but we use this one. Basically take milk and whole wheat kernels and blend them for about 5 minutes in a blender. Pancakes are an easy thing for kids to love, so its a great idea to add healthy stuff to pancakes to increase the nutritional density of them. And when you are using the whole wheat berry in a recipe, you can be sure all the nutrients are in tact. These include:
- Fiber (which helps those little kiddies stay full longer, and assists in digestion)
- magnesium (which helps calcium absorption, a must with little growing bones)
- B vitamins (which gives energy... (OK maybe you don't want your kids to get too much of this one)
If your kids don't really like pancakes, or you feel the need to mix it up a bit, these are some pancake ideas we've tried:
- Put your batter in an empty squeeze bottle (like you would buy for mustard at a picnic), and squeeze out letters and shapes onto the hot griddle.
- Add cinnamon or cinnamon chips to your batter.
- Add chocolate chips to batter, then make faces on the pancake like they do at IHOP.
- Add blueberries on top or in the batter or other berries.
- For toppings try peanut butter and syrup.
- My favorite topping is yogurt!
- Add oatmeal or other grains to the batter for a multi-grain pancake.
How do your kids like pancakes?
Tomorrow another grain that I'm almost sure every child likes.

AN INDOOR skydiving experience has opened in Basingstoke – one of just three such centres in the country.
The £6million Airkix centre was built in just six-and-a-half months at Basingstoke Leisure Park, and it was ready for the public to use on June 22, following an official opening the previous day at which Basingstoke and Deane Mayor Councillor Dan Putty cut the ribbon.
The centre features a 14ft-wide super-fast wind tunnel, in which people can try out indoor skydiving.
It also has two Skiplex Ski slopes for people at any level to learn to ski or board, the UK's first permanent Brushboarding slope, in which visitors can learn to surf without water, and Sim Car Racing, with two full motion sims with a variety of tracks and cars to choose from.
Simon Ward, chief executive of Airkix, said the wind tunnel was complete on June 10 and was used for 30 hours of training by the Italian military before it opened to the public.
He told The Gazette that the other two Airkix centres in Manchester and Milton Keynes attract around 55,000 flyers each year, and 30,000 visitors trying out the other experiences. He expects the Basingstoke centre to pull in similar numbers.
An online Groupon offer for Airkix skydiving, which included the new Basingstoke centre, sold 15,000 tickets and ensured the first few days of opening were busy for staff.
At the official opening, Mr Ward said: "We take the great outdoors and bring it indoors, and my do we need to do that with British summers."
Mr Ward said the extra people coming into Basingstoke to visit Airkix would also bring custom to other businesses, including the restaurants.
Cllr Putty cut a ribbon around the wind tunnel, before instructors, including one dressed in a rabbit suit, gave an impressive skydiving display and cut a ribbon inside the tunnel.
The Mayor said: "This centre is actually getting our town on the map, and it's unique in the south of England. I have the honour and privilege today to open this fantastic enterprise."
Deputy council leader Cllr Ranil Jayawardena also spoke at the opening event. He told Mr Ward and his team: "I'm delighted that you have chosen Basingstoke to invest in."
