We stayed there on Aug.9 & 10,2014. What a wonderful place! The service was great and the food marvellous. Woody & Beth were very gracious hosts. We enjoyed everything about the place. If we get a chance we will certainly stay there again Lloydminter, Alberta, Canada

This B & B is excellent!! The Hosts made us feel right at home. We hated to leave to get dinner because it was so comfortable and enjoyable talking with the host and other guests. There were several areas to socialize and the evening hors de vours and choice of beer or wine was a pleasant surprise. It seemed everywhere we turned there were pleasant surprises!! We stayed in the suite because there were 2 couples. It was wonderful. The rooms were meticulously clean and welcoming. The bathrooms modern and like brand new. The breakfast was delicious!! If you need a place to stay in Whitefish this B & B is the place for you. Everytime I think of it, I smile. It was a highlight in our trip to Glacier! Cant wait to stay there again!! Thank you, wonderful hosts!!

The Good Medicine Lodge is a wonderful 'quiet' place to stay. The owners are very nice and accommodating. The room was very clean, bed was comfortable and cute décor. Breakfast was great and staff was so nice. We only wished we had arrived earlier in evening so we could relax a little more, our mistake...stayed too late at Glacier Nat'l Park, though that was good too. :-)

About 45 minutes from Glacier Park, Good Medicine Lodge is a wonderful place to use as headquarters for the area. Made to be a B&B all areas are perfect to either enjoy privacy or chat with other guests. Betsy's culinary expertise are only out done by Woody's easy personality and knowledge of the area. Beds are great and a wonderful nights sleep is easily attainable. Downtown Whitefish is about 1/2 mile away with nunmerous restaurants.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our three night stay at Good Medicine Lodge. Betsy and Woody went above and beyond our expectations in every aspect. The food was incredible. From the endless supply of freshly baked cookies, superb hors d'oeuvres and drinks, and gourmet breakfasts. We enjoyed the freedom to choose among three different breakfast entrees each day. The lodge was outstanding for its beauty and comfort. There is a great deck with a fire ring, hot tub, and exquisite herb and flower garden. We were very close to all the best of Whitefish including dining, shopping, lake and mountain access. Betsy and Woody were gracious hosts with a keen sense of how to cater to their guests needs. They really go the extra mile. We are already planning a return trip to this wonderful B&B. Many rooms have their own decks with views of beautiful gardens and Big Mountain. From our deck we watched humming birds in the morning and the Big Sky sunset in the evening.

The hospitality, food, room and atmosphere at Good Medicine Lodge was truly extraordinary. Woody and Betsy were very gracious hosts and made us feel right at home. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family and will return for another stay when I am in Whitefish again.

We were at the lodge in Oct and found it to be delightful. The gormet breakfasts were a treat. We stayed a week and looked forward to the wonderful breakfasts everyday. Betsy and Woody are so friendly and loved our visits in the great room with a glass of wind and snacks. They saw to our every need. The view from the great room was very nice, even seeing deer grazing there. This was our first trip to Montana and Whitefish is such a quaint town and all of the wonderful places to eat. We would like to return someday to the relaxing atmosphere and wonderful hospitality. Thanks for an amazing stay. Eldon & Polly, San Antonio, Tx

The hosts are welcoming and helpful. The inn is beautifully decorated. We had a problem waiting for hot water, but they explained about that. For the price and since it is a bed AND breakfast, we anticipated a wonderful breakfasts. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. The first morning, we were served a tough pancake topped with a trout cake and A poached egg. There was also one muffin that was bland and dry. I had hopes for the next morning that were dashed when cantaloupe was brought in garnished with paper thin bacon? There was a crustless quiche that was undercooked, and so salty, with a coffee cake that was fine. There is dry cereal available which is a smart choice. The cookies are great! I have stayed at quite a few B & B's and the food has ranged from fine to great. A bed and breakfast should have 2 things. Great bed and great breakfast. Only half is 50% which is failing to most. Hopefully the food will be brought up to par with the rooms. I would then give it thumbs up!

My husband and I recently stayed at the Good Medicine Lodge during our trip to Glacier National Park. Woody and Betsy were wonderful hosts and gave great advice on what to do during our visit. Our room was very welcoming and comfortable. The lodge is beautiful. We enjoyed sitting out back around the hot tub and enjoying the company of other guests. Breakfast was delicious. Definitely recommend staying with Woody and Betsy at their beautiful lodge.

Gary Becker, the University of Chicago economist who won a Nobel Prize for applying economic methods to shed light on sociological topics such as crime, education and marriage, has died. He was 83.
The Nobel Foundation, which said last year it was using hedge funds to help boost capital, is now considering charitable donations after previous strategies failed to bring in enough money.
The Nobel Foundation, which pays for the prizes and banquets every year, invests too much in alternatives.
The Nobel Foundation, which this year lopped 20 percent off its cash prizes, is planning to invest more money through hedge funds to boost its returns and restore the award to its previous size.
The Nobel Foundation, which awards winners a 10 million-krona ($1.5 million) prize, may reduce the amount as a decline in global markets lessens its returns, Svenska Dagbladet reported, citing Executive Director Lars Heikensten.
Sweden's 100-year-old Nobel Foundation, which every October gives 60 million kronor ($9 million) to prize winners in the award's six categories, has begun hedging against the risk of currency fluctuations.
Following is a historical table of Nobel Prize Laureates for Literature from the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm.
Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in medicine for research illuminating how the body's immune system recognizes infection and marshals an attack against it, an award made three days after one of the men died.
Lawrence Klein, the University of Pennsylvania economist who won the 1980 Nobel Prize for his computer-based models that help governments forecast the future and act accordingly, has died. He was 93.
Ronald Coase, the British-born University of Chicago economist whose Nobel Prize-winning work on the role of corporations stemmed from visits in the early 1930s to American companies including Ford Motor Co. and Union Carbide, has died. He was 102.

"On the other hand, Solo offers very little loot, and few, if any special items. Generally, the Solo difficulty section has been added recently to the game (June 2006) in order to make it more accessible to lower-level characters who do not have a group"
It would be cool to have to run it as a low level (Solo instances). It was a bit fun in DDO. Problem is yes sometimes it is hard to get a group in WoW but along side that it would take to much time for the Devs to make or even consider. It in theory is a good idea, if just to show a small portion of what to come first hand and ideally easy.
But to get to the other matter at hand I liked the fact that DDO technically has the ability to choose difficulty for "instances" even early ones. That I would've liked to have seen in WoW. Old instances were just... more fun than TBC.

February 2012 existing-home sales were down from January - which was an upwardly revised - but remain well above the pace of February 2011, according to the National Association of Realtors.
Total existing-home sales were down 0.9% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.59 million in February 2012 from an upwardly revised 4.63 million in January 2012. February 2012 sales were 8.8% higher than the 4.22 million-unit level in February 2011.
Total existing-home sales are completed transactions that include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, and co-ops.
Underlying factors are much better than they were a year ago, according to Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist. "The market is trending up unevenly, with record high consumer buying power and sustained job gains giving buyers the confidence they need to get into the market," he said.
"The great suppression in household formation during the past four years was unsustainable, and a pent-up demand could burst forth from the improving economy," Yun said. He said he expects rising demand for both rental space and homeownership in 2012 - a "relatively unusually" circumstance.
Freddie Mac reported that the national average commitment rate for a 30-year, conventional, fixed-rate mortgage was 3.89% in February, down from 3.92% in January and down from 4.95% in February 2011. The February 2012 rate was the lowest since record-keeping began in 1971.
The national median existing-home price for all housing types was $156,600 in February 2012, up 0.3% from February 2011. Distressed homes - foreclosures and short sales sold at deep discounts - accounted for 34% of February sales (20% foreclosures/14% short sales), down from 35% in January and 39% in February 2011.
Total housing inventory at the end of February rose 4.3% to 2.43 million existing homes available for sale - a 6.4-month supply at the current sales pace, up from a 6.0-month supply in January. Unsold inventory has trended down from a record 4.04 million in July 2007 and is 19.3% below a year ago.

The Federal Reserve Building Shutterstock / The Spirit of America
The UpTake: Between the rapidly growing Bitcoin economy and future innovation stands more than a couple regulation hurdles. Today, one of the most influential Bitcoin organizations met with leaders in Wahsington D.C.
The Bitcoin Foundation today met with the Federal Reserve, and at least six other government agencies to plan the future of Bitcoin, the encrypted currency rapidly growing into a fully developed ecosystem. And just 11 short months ago, the Foundation didn't even exist.
"We view this as the beginning of a conversation about the appropriate role of government and law enforcement in this emerging space," said the Foundation's general council, Patrick Murck, in a statement provided to Upstart Business Journal. "Our hope is that this is the beginning of an open and transparent dialog between good-faith stakeholders to find common-ground and develop public-private partnerships."
Founded in September 2012, the organization has a three-pronged goal of standardizing Bitcoin through improving software design; protecting Bitcoin against counterfeiters and thieves; and promoting Bitcoin by giving businesses which participate in the ecosystem a clear avenue for communicating.
To give you an idea of how serious the members are, dues to the Foundation can only be paid for with Bitcoin. At today's rate of $122 per coin, an annual individual membership costs approximately $25, and a platinum industry membership, the kind Bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox owns, costs $10,015 at today's rates.
There are currently approximately 800 members, inculuding Coinsetter, BitInstant and ZipZap—which were part of the 22 startups subpoenaed earlier this month by New York's most powerful financial regulator—and 127 anonymous members.
State, national, and international governments have taken their time reacting to Bitcoin, and by no means have they all come to the same decision, something Murck was quick to take a swipe at.

New FINRA Rule 5123 Imposes Filing Obligation for Certain Private Placements
New FINRA Rule 5123 will require each FINRA member that sells a security in a private placement, subject to certain exemptions, to file with FINRA a copy of any private placement memorandum, term sheet or other offering document used in connection with such private placement within 15 calendar days after the date of the first sale, or to indicate to FINRA that no such offering documents were used. Due to the exemptions, the regulatory burden of this new requirement will fall primarily on offerings of Section 3(c)(1) private investment funds and other offerings made to individuals or retail investors. A copy of FINRA Regulatory Notice 12-40 (September 2012) (Private Placements of Securities) is available here.

These gloves are a great addition to anyones set-up. They have great vibrant colors that are easy to see and they don't absorb water from the snow. They have a great rubberish material that allow you to have free movement of your hands and fingers.
I have a pair from like 2010 that I still ride in during 35+ degree days. They'll get you through almost any Spring conditions and even some colder days if you're smart and keep from dragging knuckles. The grip on them isn't extremely grippy, but sometimes thats nice. My only problem is that the grip slowly rubs off of them after some use, but it doesn't effect them that much. I've had the same pair for the last two or three seasons and they're still going strong. Another great product by Burton.

We Don't Need 'Viagra for Women' ... We Need Breakfast in Bed!
Dr. Wendy Walsh: In its race to be the first to market with a female version of Viagra-style medication, a German pharmaceutical company, Boehringer Ingelheim, is pressuring the FDA to approve its new daily pill that promises to increase women's libidos. The FDA is stalling, saying that the side effects of nausea and dizziness are worse than the problems it's trying to treat, and that a woman's libido is complicated and no one knows how much emotions and psychology play into it. Nevertheless, the pharmaceutical company is trying to turn low sex drive in women into a widespread pathology.
Historically, the medical community has loved to medicate womanhood. Depending on which study you read, one in six American women are currently on an SSRI (antidepressant). I guess that's an advancement from the traumatic surgical hysterectomies that women were once forced to endure to cure their "hysteria." And how about postpartum depression? It's the diagnosis darling of our generation. Funny, isn't it, how affluent women with less pressure to work and mothers with extensive family support have lower rates of PPD? Now the drug companies are telling mothers -- us exhausted caregivers and providers -- that we have a sexual dysfunction?!
According to the New York Times, there are questions about how pervasive low sex drive really is in women. It is a bona fide diagnosis in the DSM-IV (called "hypoactive sexual desire disorder"), and many of the studies mentioned in medical literature suggest that one in ten women suffer from it. But the problem is this: Those studies have been financed by drug companies.
While the FDA weighs in, the German company is going ahead with a marketing campaign that includes a website, a Twitter feed, a Discovery Channel documentary and a publicity tour with actress Lisa Rinna.
Here's my two cents. To anyone who's listening at the FDA or at home: We mothers do not need a pill to have more active libidos. Fly us to a resort. Give us room service or breakfast in bed. Then stand back, boys. Watch how fast our libidos return!

CBOE: Unique trading franchise
With its SPX and VIX indices, this company has a strong position in financial trading products.
We reiterate our "strong buy" recommendation on CBOE Holdings (CBOE); the company has a unique franchise and is poised for growth.
We support a premium valuation for CBOE mostly for the company's proprietary position with its the S&P 500 Index (SPX) complex and the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) trading products complex, which is rapidly gaining in popularity with a broader set of new customers.
The SPX and VIX index options were 90% or more of the company's total index options volumes in 2012. Both key proprietary products remain the dominant trading products for CBOE.
The index options from S&P Dow Jones Indices are through exclusive multi-year licensing agreements to list options based on the S&P 500, S&P 100 and DJIA.
On March 8, CBOE and S&P Dow Jones Indices reached an agreement whereby CBOE has exclusive trading rights to trade and to create new options on the S&P 500 and the S&P 100 and other derivative indexes through 2032.
CBOE has a working relationship with S&P Dow Jones Indices on ways to develop new indices for the SPX and VIX product family. (S&P Dow Jones Indices operates independently of S&P Capital IQ Equity Research.)
Management is exploring the development of U.S. Treasury trading products tied to VIX. We believe CBOE's goal to enhance shareholder value through product innovation and globalization will spur attractive organic growth, which continues to outstrip that of the peer group, which consists of larger companies.
Right now, 15% to 20% of average daily volumes in index options and futures come from non-U.S. trading sources. The introduction of 24 hour trading 5 days a week will enable non-U.S. institutions to participate in CBOE's key trading products.
With the opening of the London trading hub earlier this year, we believe this is a game changer that will spur future growth, as it enables buy-side institutions and other trading firms to take advantage of VIX futures trading.
Our investment thesis for CBOE is as a growth story with an attractive franchise that is poised for faster secular growth from proprietary index options and futures products. Investment risks are tied to execution with new technology platforms, market conditions and trading volume activity.
We think CBOE's exclusivity with major market index options and futures contracts supports a premium valuation for the shares along with its potential appeal as an attractive asset to larger market exchange operators.

Over the last couple of months, I've started replacing my car trips with bicycle trips. Grocery store, work, and even dates often now take place on my bike. Bicycle to the grocery store? Bicycle to work? You must think I'm crazy. I know sometimes my co-workers think I am. But when you stop to think about it for a minute, the benefits become clear: First, it's cheap! With gasoline in the $2.50 range, even short trips in a car start to stretch the budget. Second, it's fun and relaxing! I love the challenge of making it up a hill and the exhilaration of speeding down the other side.

Summer is almost here, and thoughts of vacations are starting to enter our minds. The rising gas prices are a great concern to everyone and can affect the family vacation plans. Our family has taken up recreational bike riding because it is fun and good exercise. Most everyone in the family can participate in this activity. Last October, my husband and I rode the Katy Trail from Sedalia, MO to Clinton, MO (a 70 mile trip). This summer, we hope to go to the western end of the trail.
An interesting trail for hiking or biking is the Katy Trail. The Katy Trail is a state park which originates in St. Charles, MO and ends in Clinton, MO. The trail follows the Missouri River for most of its route. It is made of fine crushed limestone, which makes for easy biking or hiking. Also, it is flat and only 225 miles long. The Katy was built on the former corridor of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas (MKT or "Katy") Railroad.
Not being from around here, I learn fun new facts about Kansas City and the surrounding area just about every day from my co-workers and/or library customers here at the Blue Ridge Branch. For instance, I suspect many of you have heard of the Katy Trail. Me? Not so much. How have I been here three years now and not heard of this neat trip idea?
Yes, I rode a bicycle around the neighborhood when I was 10, but I have a confession to make. While I hit the trails on a regular basis these days, it's a love that was only re-ignited 3 years ago. After saving up for a while, I decided to take a vacation to Denmark in 2009. Why Denmark? Why not?
One way of working out that I truly enjoy is riding my bike. Cycling is one of the easiest ways to exercise, and I don't think of it as exercise. I don't intend to be a marathon cyclist. I just ride for fun. You can ride a bike almost anywhere without spending a fortune. Once you have learned to ride a bike, you don't forget.
I often find myself wishing that I could bike to work. And no, I'm not talking about hopping on a Harley and buzzing around at 70 miles an hour. I am a librarian after all, and I'd much rather get out my banana-seated, basket-sporting Huffy bicycle and pedal to work. Unfortunately, 12 miles is a little too far for these legs to travel on a bike. Maybe the coffee shop is more doable!
The sun is out. The rain is stopping. It's time to pedal. The hardcore riders may pedal all year round, but now it is the season for anybody that likes to ride their bike. One, two, three, or four wheels; one speed to 27; on the pavement or in the dirt; the bicycle is an incredible way to enjoy warm days.
This summer, the City of Kansas City is beginning a plan update of Bike KC. The Bike KC plan is a 600 mile network of bicycle facilities located on both existing and future city streets. The first meeting in the plan update process, and the only one north of the river, will be held at the North Oak Branch of Mid-Continent Public Library on Tuesday, June 18, 2013 from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. The Kansas City Public Works Department will give presentations at 5:30 and 6:30 p.m.

Yes. We need to talk about this.

Epicurean, perhaps?
It all started with a recipe that I read in Women's Health for baked oatmeal.
Until this morning, I had never attempted to bake my beloved oats. I think it's because the required 5 minutes for stovetop oats take up all of the patience I can muster when my belly is growling in the early morning.
This morning, however, I was feeling surprisingly patient and creative. After replenishing my stock of pumpkin at Whole Foods yesterday, I couldn't get the thought of pumpkin baked oatmeal out of my head.
I used the recipe in Women's Health as a bit of a guide, but really ended up just winging it.
All I can say to you, my friends, is that my life will never be the same.
(It's possible that I'm being the slightest bit dramatic.)
"Pumpkin Pie for Breakfast" Oatmeal
1/3 cup Old Fashioned oats
1/3 cup original almond milk
1 egg white
~1/3 cup canned pumpkin
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 banana
I didn't really do anything special to these ingredients…I just let them work their extraordinary magic. I mixed them all up and, since I couldn't find my glass ramekin, plopped them into this adorable mini pie dish. I sliced half of a very ripe banana on top of the mixture and baked it for about 25 minutes at 350 degrees. (Checking it impatiently every 5 second, because it literally smelled like a pumpkin pie was baking in our oven.)
The only thing I would change about this recipe is that next time I would probably just mash the banana up and mix it into the oatmeal. Although the slices definitely make it more aesthetically pleasing :)
Thanks for all of your awesome comments regarding how I plan to train differently for my next half-marathon! I loved reading about your guys' current and favorite training tips and techniques.
Speaking of which, I am required to create a "how to" manual for one of my classes on a topic of my choice and am planning on writing it on "how to train for your first half-marathon." I want to gear it specifically towards women and focus on safe and enjoyable training techniques.
My project will cover everything from race selection, nutrition, clothing, shoes, safety and training plan selection. I would absolutely love input or advice that any of you have, based on things that you have read or personally experienced from training for half or full marathons!
I can use any resources I want, including personal interviews, and I know that there are tons of amazing runners out there that could teach me all about safe training tips! So please share!!!
I hope you had a wonderful week and that it continues on into a blessed weekend! Love you all!!
Best breakfast this week? Best recipe/food discovery this week?
Please don't forget to share your safe training tips with me!! :)

Jennifer Ruiz and her two year old daughter "moo moo" at a Red Cross shelter in Little Egg Harbor Township, NJ. Ruiz and her daughter evacuated from their home in Seaside heights.
The barrier islands off the coast of New Jersey were hit hard by Superstorm Sandy, and for the moment most of the residents are banned from living in their homes because the area is far too damaged.
Which is why this past weekend, in a Red Cross shelter at Pinelands High School in Egg Harbor, N.J., on the mainland, around 100 stranded island residents were lining up for dinner, while Red Cross volunteers worked hard to keep things reassuring.
"Excuse me everybody!" shouted one of the volunteers, waving her arms above her head. " Is there a Jan and a Manny in the house?"
A stocky 61-year-old man looked up from his tray. "Right here!" he answered, looking wary.
"OK, everybody!" the woman shouted again. And then the whole room, filled with dozens of weary, heartbroken people, suspended its tragedy for a minute.
"Happy Anniversary," they screamed so loud that it maxed out the levels of my recorder.
The couple started smiling.
It was Saturday, November 3, 2012, six days after their dream had been ruined.
A Picnic Table Becomes A Bridge
Jan and Manny DiNunzio have been married for 38 years. They met, they tell me, in the 1970s, at the bar Manny owned, The Hungry Eye.
"When I saw him I said, 'See that man? I'm going to marry him,'" Jan says. Then Manny finished her sentence, "And we've been together since. We moved in together by the end of that year."
Manny, who's from Italy, and Jan, who's from New Jersey, came to the shelter the night before after they were forced to leave their home in .
Most of the world knows Seaside Heights from the reality show Jersey Shore, but Jan's relationship with Seaside began decades ago, when she was just a teenager.
"Oh, it was like a must-do as a kid," she tells me. "You worked all fall and winter to save money for that week in the summer. Seaside Heights was the place to go."
Seaside Heights clearly occupies a big place in Jan's emotional world. So big that when I tell her I've never been there she is genuinely scandalized. She simply can't believe it. Just as she can't believe that her husband — the modest bar owner — actually bought them a house in Seaside five years ago.
"Never in my wildest dreams did I think he would buy a place in Seaside Heights," she says.
But Manny did buy a place, secretly, just to please her. He bought the house on the sly, then took her to see it, claiming he'd rented it for just a couple weeks.
It was a modest place with a couple apartments out back Manny planned to rent to bring in enough money to pay for everything. He says she walked in, and she loved it.
"She goes, 'So how long do we have here? How long are we going to stay?'" Manny tells me smiling. "So that's when I start telling her…. guess what?"
Hearing this story makes it easier to understand why Jan and Manny behaved as they did during the storm. Jan and Manny didn't evacuate. They spent a terrifying night riding out the storm in their home — at one point they had to use a picnic table as a bridge — and then, after the storm had finished, had clearly destroyed their town, they refused to leave. They remained in their house, by choice, for four days.
This is hard to fathom. The streets of Seaside Heights after the storm were filled with sand - as high as four feet in some places - and everywhere there was the hiss of broken gas pipes, but somehow Manny and Jan couldn't absorb that. They were in denial.
"I said you know probably tomorrow A & P is going to open up," Manny says. "Probably that other one is going to open up. We're going to be ok, I told her."
So they started cleaning up, putting their lives back together.
There was no light, there was no heat, but they still had gas for their stove so Manny was able to make morning coffee for his wife. But then the Fire Department decided to turn off the gas, which was the breaking point.
"They cut the gas, andthat's when I kinda lost it," Jan says.
Without a stove, Jan told Manny, they couldn't make it, but even then, Manny wouldn't agree.
"I brought the grill out," he says crying, "I said, 'you know we lost the gas, we lost the heat … this is a grill is just like a stove … we are going to use it to make coffee!'"
But Jan told Manny she couldn't do it anymore. "This isn't [the TV show] Survivor," she told him.
And so they left.
"I cried like a baby," Manny said. "Tears rolled down my fact, I locked up the place, and as I was closing the units up, the apartments, it hit me: When am I going to come back? What is going to happen? No one can give you an answer."
That is the question: When can people move back? Manny and Jan have been asking everyone that question and everyone has a different answer. Two months. Six months. Nine months.
The problem for Manny and Jan is that financially they need the apartment rentals in the back of their house to survive. They figure they can last for a bit, "but if this goes on starting four or five months we're done," they both tell me.
Keeping Emotions Under Control
Can people survive? Financially? Emotionally?
That's what everyone at the shelter was asking, and so to keep the dark thoughts at bay, the Red Cross had arranged for a local entertainer to perform in the cafeteria. At 8 p.m. a very nice woman with very tall hair took the stage. It was a strange scene. She would sing, and then do things like invite the shelter children on stage for their own performances.
A little boy called Connor junior got up for a bit. "Banana phone, banana phone," he sang into her microphone.
Meanwhile outside in the hallway a 28-year-old woman named Jennifer Ruiz and her two year old daughter were also singing.
" I love you, you love me, we're a happy family!" they sang together.
But the truth was that Jennifer Ruiz wasn't happy. She was sad, but didn't want to share that with her daughter, who she calls Moo moo.
"How do you tell a two-year-old we don't have a home to go to?" she asked me.
Ruiz, like the DuNunzios, lived in Seaside Heights, but unlike them she evacuated during the storm with her fiance, his parents, and Moo moo.
They went to stay with her brother but decided to come to the shelter after a few days because things were getting tense.
She is upset about this, upset about everything, but doesn't want her daughter to know, so she's pretending that she feels fine.
"I just act like it's a regular day," she tells me. "Like nothing is out of the ordinary. I still play with her. I still feed her. I still laugh with her."
It's clear that keeping her emotions under control is very important to Jennifer.
"I don't want to be weak." she says. "When you're crying you think of the worst and you lose hope."
And Jennifer doesn't want to lost hope because – deep breath - since Sandy hit about a week ago she hasn't been able to get in touch with either her mother or her oldest daughter, an eight-year-old who lives with her ex. She's called and called both of them, checked Facebook, contacted family, but nothing.
Even before the storm Jennifer had a difficult life. Though she has a good job, her relationship with her ex has been very difficult, and she recently got into a huge fight with her mom.
"It was something so dumb, but she just stopped talking to me and I stopped talking to her, like both being stubborn, not wanting to be the bigger person and say sorry," she says.
And then came the storm, and Jennifer says that her thoughts have been cycling and cycling.
"There's like too much going on to be honest, like I don't have a main focus or a main thought right now … When I start to think, 'Oh my god, are they ok? Are they thinking about me as I'm thinking about them?' It's like emotionally I'm a wreck."
Still with Moo moo she is her normal self, or something near her normal self.
At 9 p.m. she tries to put Moo moo down to sleep in the gym where close to 100 people are going to be sleeping on narrow green cots.
"Come on, you lay your head right here," she coos. "Good girl."
"I love you," she tells Moo moo.
"I love you," Moo moo says.
They kiss.
Moo moo lies there but all around her people are moving, so it's hard to sleep. About half an hour later she's up again. It's past 11 p.m. before Jennifer and Moo moo actually do get to sleep, and even then - like almost everyone else in the room - their sleep is fitful.
How can it not be?
Like Manny and Jan, and all the other people lying on the narrow green cots around them, their future is so uncertain. They don't know where they will live, or what they will do, or what tomorrow will bring.

It's easy to be tempted when you eat out — especially if everyone around you is chowing down on unhealthy options. But eating too much fast food or always choosing high-fat, high-calorie menu items can drag a person's body down. The most obvious problem is weight gain. But because the food we eat affects how our bodies function, eating the right (or wrong) foods can influence any number of things:
It's easier than you think to make good choices at a fast-food restaurant, the mall, or even the school cafeteria. Most cafeterias and fast-food places offer healthy choices that are also tasty, like grilled chicken or salads. Be mindful of portion sizes and high fat add-ons, like dressings, sauces or cheese.
Here are some pointers to remember that can help you make wise choices when eating out:
Most restaurant portions are way larger than the average serving of food at home. Ask for half portions, share an entrée with a friend, or take half of your dish home.
Here are some other restaurant survival tips:
With a little planning, it's easy to eat healthy foods at the mall. Here are some choices:
Choose the smaller sizes, especially when it comes to drinks and snacks. If you have a craving for something unhealthy, try sharing the food you crave with a friend. Here's another tip for eating while shopping: Don't put off eating until you're so hungry you could inhale everything in sight. Set a time to eat, then stop what you're doing to take a break, sit down, and savor the food you are eating.
The suggestions for eating in a restaurant and at the mall apply to cafeteria food as well. Add vegetables and fruit whenever possible, and opt for leaner, lighter items. Choose sandwiches on whole-grain bread or a plain hamburger over fried foods or pizza. Go easy on the high-fat, low-nutrition items, such as mayonnaise and heavy salad dressings.
You might want to consider packing your own lunch occasionally. Here are some lunch items that pack a healthy punch:
It can be easy to eat well, even on the run. And the good news is you don't have to eat perfectly all the time. It's OK to splurge every once in a while, as long as your food choices are generally good.

The start to last year's debut of public health insurance exchanges could not have gone much worse … for state-run exchanges as well as for the federal HealthCare.gov portal.

But despite the glitch-filled opening, processes began functioning pretty well in early 2014, and the extended open-enrollment period concluded with about... Read more
It used to be pretty easy to be an operator of stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plans (PDPs).

During recent conference calls to discuss the publicly traded PBMs' second-quarter 2014 earnings, there was less talk of the role narrow and/or preferred pharmacy networks are playing in the 2015 selling season than there has been in recent years. Consultants say that nearly all the PBMs now include a narrow network option when responding to requests for proposals. Read more
Could a larger movement against specialty drugs placed on high formulary tiers be spurred by the actions of consumer advocacy groups in California and Florida against health plans and their coverage of HIV/AIDS drugs and requirements for members who take them? Consumer Watchdog and The AIDS Institute, in conjunction with The National Health Law Program (NHeLP), are taking somewhat different approaches, but they are united in the contention that these plan members are being discriminated...

If you can't beat 'em, sue 'em — or discourage their beneficiaries from participating. That at least may be the attitude of some provider groups toward the Medicare-Medicaid dual eligibles demonstration programs starting up in multiple states, as shown by a lawsuit filed in California in mid-July plus reports from a top state official in Illinois about how the provider community is reacting to the duals demo there. Clearly there may be some true believers among providers who feel that the... Read more
In the July 11 issue of Drug Benefit News, we profiled the complex category of diabetes treatments, which has some 380 products in various stages of clinical development. But with a wide array of treatment options comes the challenge of keeping patients on their medications. Next to high cholesterol, diabetes is the costliest category when it comes to avoidable expenses due to nonadherence, accounting for $24.6 billion in avoidable costs per year, Catamaran Corp.

Are private insurance exchanges the future of employer-sponsored benefits? Health insurers appear to think so. And while interest in the concept still far outweighs action among employers, that could change quickly. Large employers see private exchanges as a strategy that could help them avoid the so-called "Cadillac tax" on rich health coverage. And smaller employers (100+ employees) that don't now offer health benefits to workers see private exchanges as a vehicle for offing low-cost... Read more
The drumbeat to do something about mass terminations of providers from Medicare Advantage (MA) networks is getting louder. Even though CMS put new limits on such terminations in the final 2015 MA payment notice and Call Letter in April, Democrats in both the House and Senate late last month introduced legislation to further restrict MA plans' ability to downsize their networks through use of no-cause terminations. The Medicare Advantage Participant Bill of Rights Act of 2014 (H.R. 4998),... Read more
I have a confession to make. After all the articles I've written and webinars I've hosted on payer efforts to curb the use of manufacturer-offered drug copay coupons, I finally used an actual copay coupon the other day. But I just barely made it through the process, thanks to an incredibly long and infuriating phone-based validation system. In my defense, I'd just switched to a different, more expensive health plan that placed my go-to allergy drug, Merck's inhaled corticosteroid Nasonex (... Read more
Is the U.S. Supreme Court's decision this morning in Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. the "first step toward repeal" of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), as St. Paul, Minn.-based Citizens' Council for Health Freedom (CCHF) says? Probably not. The Supreme Court found in a 5-4 decision that closely held for-profit companies may opt out of providing birth control coverage to employees on religious grounds. Read more
My doctor lied to me. In December, during my annual exam, my primary care provider noticed that my thyroid was swollen. Immediately I assumed the worst. "Could it be cancer?" I asked. "No," she said firmly, without hesitation. It was that response that helped keep my attitude positive as I went through an ultrasound and two biopsies over the next few months, all of which resulted in an "indeterminate" finding on the cyst inhabiting the right side of my thyroid.

There seems to be something about Medicare Advantage (MA) plans in Florida that makes them grow too rapidly — and then get in enough financial and/or legal trouble that they disappear. The latest example is Orlando-based Physicians United Plan, Inc. (PUP), which a state judge on June 9 ordered to be liquidated July 1, and the resemblance to previous situations involving MA in Florida is so striking as to be scary. The episode involving 40,000-MA-member PUP comes just over a year after the same... Read more

Best Lush mask I've tried. I'm not overly enamoured with the smell (can't put my finger on why - I don't hate it but don't love it either, but it makes my face look super awesome super quickly. It leaves my face matte, but glowing, while nice and soft and hydrated. I have oily/combo skin so anything that reduces the shine on my face is a godsend! There is a tingle when first put on, but Mask of Magnaminty burned more tbh.
Brazened Honey works, but it can be so, so harsh on sensitive skin so please be careful if you are prone to breakouts or especially stinging, itching or burning. Don't take this stuff lightly, it means business.
If you look at the ingredients there are plenty of fresh herbs and you can feel them heating up your face. I'm not going to lie, it does give quite a huge burning sensation, and my skin isn't particularly all that sensitive to begin with. I was wondering if it was supposed to be so strong until I read reviews from other people with similar or worse experiences. It lasts about two to three minutes after applying the mask and then fades away.
I pressed on and used this mask about every 3-4 days(I would have pushed it to a week but they expire so fast I'd have a huge pot of product.) I do think you get a really nice serving in each pot and you can expect to have a full face mask out of one pot about 5-10 times depending on how thickly you apply it. I just want to reiterate this is really likely not for sensitive skin at all, especially not repeated use or more often than once a week.
I have noticed clearer and much much brighter skin a day or two after using the mask, especially after I've just washed it off, but if I overdo it my skin does have a bit of a fit with me. I get a lot of complaints about the smell when I'm using it but I think it's herbal and strong and nice. I'll purchase again if I feel like my skin needs to be zapped back into shape but it's a little strong for me to make a routine out of for my skin personally.

I LOVE this stuff!!!!
I have combination/sensitive skin that gets oily from irritation and clogged a lot. I also get little red bumps from time to time.
This mask cleanses and brightens my skin. It feels like it really cleans out my poor pores. My skin just looks, brighter, more alive, cleaner. This is my favorite Lush mask by far. The spices are really revitalizing. It might irritate some (maybe), but not me.
I tried Cosmetic Warrior for the bumps and since I have sensitive but problematic skin, and I much prefer Brazened Honey.
They say not to use it if you're skin is too sensitive, but I don't find that it irritates my skin at all. It is a little scrubby, but as long as you're just putting it on your skin and not trying to wash with it (LOL!), you should be fine :)
all in all, 5/5 lippies! :)
Will definitely repurchase when it runs out!
(Might try Love Lettuce soon! so look out for that review!)
First off, its only about $7 for a tub of this face mask at LUSH. That will probably last you 3-5 uses, depending on how much of it you use.
My skin type: Combination to the maxxxxx!! The tops of my cheeks dry easily, my chin and forehead can get too oily. I am prone to white heads if I'm not careful (especially on my nose) and my pores can look enlarged if I mistreat my skin.
Things I immediately noticed about Brazened Honey:
The smell - It smells like a sweet, gingery, rosemary combination. I enjoy the smell; it's quite relaxing.
The texture - Its very coarse and grainy! It has noticable chunks of almonds and other ingredients that can clog your sink.
The first time I applied the mask, I took it directly out of the fridge and I felt like I was dragging clay across my skin (ok maybe I'm exaggerating, but still, it was very hard to spread).
The second time, I learned from my mistake and let it sit out and soften for a minute before applying. This made a world of difference! The mask went on much more easily and evenly.
I have used this mask twice now and I have definitely seen tremendous improvement in my skin. The first thing I noticed after application is the warm tingling sensation it left on my skin. The tingling was much more intense on the sensitive areas of my skin, i.e. the tops of my cheeks. Thankfully, I did not see any signs of irritation or redness afterwards.
Immediately after washing the mask off I felt incredibly clean! My skin looked brighter, my pores were smaller and I just felt Fresh.
I have used Brazen Honey twice (once a week for two weeks now) and my skin tone is more even, all of my acne has cleared up, and there is a noticeable brightness to my complexion (the "glow" lol).
I definitely recommend this product 100%, its all natural, great for oily/combination skin, and leaves you feeling clean, exfoliated, and glowing!! 5 STARS!
A couple of weeks in China made my skin break out suddenly and in a desperate bid to calm things down I went to my lush store to get angels on bare skin and whatever else might help. My favourite lush mask is the scared truth and then Ayesha but the SA told me to try this one on my acne. Five uses later my skin has calmed down somewhat, though I put that down to the AOBS mor than this since after the third use I had more pimples not less, and each time I used this mask my face looked redder not less red. It is also really thick and cakey and doesn't spread easily on the face and clogs your drain. The texture is also too gritty for my liking. ill probably not be repurchasing but it didn't hurt, I guess...
This mask is truly amazing, and I have tried a lot of masks. It brightens and cleans my sensitive skin so well, without being irritable despite the gritty texture. Definate rebuy here and recommend.
I love lush and have always used their products and the other day a sales associate there recommended this to me. So I took the mask home and used it for the first time and out of all of the masks I have tried I would recommend this one 100% I could feel my skin tingling as my pores were being cleansed, it had a very nice exfoliating base and really brightened my face even after one application!!
I have horrible (or had) horrible hyperpigmentation. I bought Fresh Farmacy, Enzymion, and this mask to try and do SOMETHING for my ailing skin. I've been using these products for two weeks now and I kid you not my hyperpigmentation (which was purple and covered nearly every inch of my cheeks and chin) is reduced by about 70%. While the soap and the moisturizer are good, I am convinced it was the brazened honey that did it.
This was the very first LUSH Fresh Face Mask I tried, because it seems to be one of the most popular and most reviewed, and at the time I was having some congested pore issues that I wanted to target.
The Brazened Honey mask is specifically targeted to skin with clogged or congested pores.
Pros: This is definitely the most effective Lush mask that I have tried. It feels a little more powerful than some of the others. I like the smell; it has an herbal, slightly ginger smell. I also like the grittiness of it when I am scrubbing it off. I alternate this with another brand of mask and together the two really helped clear my pores out. I am plagued by blackheads in my nose and sometimes cheeks. This keeps my cheeks and chin totally clear. My nose ones are tougher to get rid of! This also temporarily does reduce the appearance of pores.
Cons: The texture is very thick. Because it was the first one I used I didn't realize the other masks were so much easier to spread! Of all the masks I have ever tried (Lush brand and other brands) this is the hardest to spread. I usually leave it out of the fridge for a minute to warm up a little- that seems to help. Otherwise, it is very stiff and harder to work with than the other masks.
Overall: of the 3 masks from Lush I have tried so far, I would repurchase this first. Some users have commented that this mask was too harsh for them, but I didn't have that problem. I think this is a great, deep-cleaning mask that is nowhere near as strong/harsh as masks from the Glamglow line or charcoal based masks. You should definitely moisturize after use to prevent skin from drying. I also would recommend using this 2x a week at most. I got 4-5 uses from the container that I purchased which obviously isn't a huge number, but I use a pretty thick layer of product. Lush is definitely an extravagance but I still enjoy it!

My favorite mask! I've tried about 5 Lush masks and this is my favorite so far! I noticed brightener skin after one use! Definitely recommend, definitely re-purchase!

Director: Burt Gillett
Release Date: September 1, 1931
Stars: Mickey Mouse, Pluto
Rating: ★★
Mickey and Pluto go fishing, but the fish are making fun of them.
Pluto even gets under water, sniffing the bottom of the lake and meeting an enormous fish. Then a gamekeeper appears, but Mickey and Pluto escape him. The goat-like gamekeeper would return in Floyd Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse comics.
Like 'Traffic Troubles', 'The Moose Hunt' and 'The Beach Party' from the same year, 'Fishin' Around' is a genuine gag cartoon. It is the weakest of the lot, however, and can hardly be called a classic. Nevertheless, it is a modest example of how the Disney studio tried to improve the quality of its animation. Notice, for example, the reflections and other water effects in this short. By now, they had become standard in Disney cartoons.
Watch 'Fishin' Around' yourself and tell me what you think:
This is Mickey Mouse cartoon No. 32

LeolaI left Saint-Malo in the middle of the night, when the fall had just started.I went to my room, climbed out the window, and stood for a few minutes on top of the rampart, watching the sea, before finally climbing down the walls, leaving the city that had been my home for 18 years.I walked all the way to Dinan, without looking back, during all the night. I was so angry that I couldn't think straight. All I knew is I wanted to go away from Ofelia, from Saint-Malo. As far away as I could. I never once thought of the robbers and criminals that wandered around in the deserted roads. I never once considered that I wasn't even a novice, even though I knew more or less how to wield a knife, and that I was carrying a bag with more money than I'd ever see in many years. But somehow I reached the village of Dinan the next morning. And still on the same frame of mind, my thoughts completely clouded by my anger, I paid to get on a boat. Dinan was as far as I had ever gone in my life. I had no ide
Consoling the PastLucy hated the Facility. She'd said it once, she'd said it a thousand times. She hated being a prisoner within it, she hated most of the people within it, and she hated the thought that even if she died, that damnable AI would just bring her back. She couldn't have any peace, not even through death. Whatever sweet relief dying would bring would be meaningless the second she woke up in the medical bay with a gold collar instead of the blue one that had become the standard for her. Though now, she hated it for more than that. Looking over at the apparition of her past self, she hated being in the space station even more than ever. Just when it seemed she could finally put her past troubles behind her and move on, just when she thought she could heal from the wounds left by those she loved and hated in the past, this hellish little world of hers put her own past in front of her.The girl was quite the sight. Her clothes were stained with dirt, sweat, and blood, but the blood didn't belong

'Research Autonomy, dependence and decision making in teenagers and young adults receiving cancer treatment'
Professor Daniel Kelly, Dr Ben Hannigan
I am an experienced children's nurse and senior lecturer who has been funded by Cardiff University to undertake a three year PhD. My study is about the nature of decision making in teenagers and young adults aged between 16 and 24 years who are receiving treatment for cancer. It will explore autonomy and dependence in a range of relevant contexts, including: everyday issues, life changing events and treatment decisions.
1. Using a qualitative case study design and methods generate new knowledge of the relationships between autonomy, dependency and decision-making in young people undergoing treatment for cancer;
2. To explore the views and experiences of parents, healthcare professionals and friends about decision making during cancer treatment;
3. To examine interactions involving decision making in oncology outpatient settings;
4. To undertake a review of case notes from each of the five cases regarding decision making processes.
Design and methods
A multiple case study design will be used to explore the experience of decision making in teenagers and young adults utilising mixed methods (interviews, observation and documentary analysis of healthcare records). Teenagers and young adults with cancer, parents, health care professionals and one person nominated by each case will be interviewed to provide multiple perspectives on decision making during cancer treatment. Observation of oncology outpatient appointments will take place for each case and the healthcare records of each case will be explored to identify decision making processes. The study will be conducted at a single site in South Wales.
User and professional involvement
Cancer survivors and professionals working for the Teenage Cancer Trust have been involved in the development of the study and will continue to act as a source of reference throughout the three years. Findings from the study will be shared with those working in the field of teenage and young adult cancer who are able to influence the delivery of care to this group.

The thrill of inspiration
Currently 2,651 articles in the Archives > This article is archived under:
Auditions, Deep thoughts, Inspiration & The Big Picture > Stories >
It is not often that one can point to a beer commercial as a beautiful illustration of intense, playful practice.
This particular ad from Guinness directed by Jonathan Glazer plays out in an artful fashion.
- The protagonist contemplates the challenge ahead of him and what he hopes to accomplish.
- Timing is everything in this challenge. The camera is focused on his game face. He is in the Zone.
- He and his pack attack head on; some falter, but they immediately get back into it.
- For a moment the challenge is surpassed and our heroes are riding high.
- Afterward, there is celebrating and reminiscing. A bond has been created.
In an abstract sense, telling stories like this is what we as musicians do.
For some, moments like these get fewer and farther in-between as time moves forward. It is good to remind ourselves often that golden moments happen on a daily basis and not let negativity rain on that parade.
This intense feeling – the thrill of inspiration – is the fuel that keeps us vital and growing as artists.

Clean Energy Program | Policy Memo
Spurring Weatherization Investments in Rural America
In this Policy Memo, Third Way proposes the creation of a new federal program, run through the Rural Utilities Service, to provide low-interest loans to 1.4 million rural households to make energy efficiency improvements, creating 25,000-35,000 jobs each year for the next ten years.
Home weatherization improvements create jobs, lower emissions, and save money for consumers. But for most families, the upfront costs are too big and the payoff takes too long. This proposal would eliminate these barriers at a tiny cost to the federal government by providing rural homeowners low-interest loans through rural electric co-operatives. Homeowners would then repay the loans through their utility bills with the cost of the loan fully off-set by energy savings. And if they move, both the loan and the energy savings could be passed on to the next homeowner.

Got dumped or recently unloaded some boyfriend baggage? Put down the Chunky Monkey and cancel your date with the couch. Look at a breakup as a chance to make yourself better, happier, and yes, even sexier!
Go on a Date
Don't wait for the perfect candidate. You need to remind yourself that you can, and will, go out with other men again.
"When it comes to your dating skills and your sex life 'use it or lose it' applies," says Amy Levine, sex coach and founder of igniteyourpleasure.com. "While you don't need to go out with a total dud, don't say no to a dude that could be a Mr. Maybe or a Mr. Right Now - even if it's just a one shot deal."
The idea is to keep your libido humming. Another way is to develop a crush. Whether it's on a celeb or the IT guy from your office, find someone to direct sexual energy at (even if it's in secret).
You're not just missing opportunities with the opposite sex—research shows shy people are less likely to be promoted. But you can change.
