Atlantis Systems International (ASI) of Ottawa, Ontario, has developed what it calls a helicopter vocational trainer for autorotation (HVT) and is demonstrating its finesse in Heli-Expo Booth No. 4401. Ian McIntyre, v-p of marketing and sales for ASI, said the HVT provides a small-footprint, completely immersive environment to train pilots in difficult maneuvers or to simulate the most dangerous landing sites.

News about simulators and training procedures.
Merlin Simulation of Boulder, Colo., recently launched a new level-3 Robinson R22 simulator with an aerodynamic model that president Ken Zimmerman called, "The best in the world." The simulator features a 220-degree field of view that Zimmerman said gives excellent peripheral views.
Bristow Group president and CEO Bill Chiles announced that his company will buy helicopter flight training outfit Helicopter Adventures for $15 million plus debt (approximately $5 million) on April 1. After completing the purchase, Helicopter Adventures will be renamed Bristow Academy.
Frasca International is offering a video gamer's delight here at Heli-Expo: an opportunity to fly a Bell 206 simulator with a friend down the hall.
First-time Heli-Expo exhibitor SRT Helicopters (Booth No. 454) has brought nearly a dozen rescue professionals to the show to discuss real-world training topics–including total resource management, hoist operations, night-vision goggles (NVG), "blue water" operations and fast roping–for helicopter operators of all types.
NetJets Europe is recruiting candidates for a new ab initio pilot training program that it hopes could provide its growing fractional ownership fleet with up to 45 new first officers each year. The part-sponsored program will be run by the UK's Oxford Aviation Training (OAT), with the first 17-month courses due to start in May.
On the heels of the termination of a training contract with United Airlines (a mutual agreement the companies said), Eclipse Aviation said it is "currently in negotiations" with a new training partner for the Eclipse 500 very light twinjet.
CAE has opened a new four-simulator expansion of its flight-training center at Burgess Hill in the UK. The facility will provide training for Dassault's new Falcon 7X, as well as for the 900EX and 2000EX EASy models.
CAE's training facility in Morristown, N.J. is now open for limited use, according to the flight simulator manufacturer and training provider. The new business aviation training center has been in operation since the end of January, using Gulfstream IV and Sikorsky S-76 simulators transferred from its Dallas facility. The six-bay training center is expected to be fully operational this spring.
While small piston helicopters continue to dominate the initial training scene with their relatively simple designs and low cost of operation, pilots seeking recurrent or advanced training in larger and more expensive turbine helicopters are more likely than ever to be flying a simulator instead of the real thing, according to industry experts.

- Comment on Video update: Kostopoulos suspended 3 games (2008-11-10 18:57:03)
I feel bad for kostopoulos for even being in that situation. What is he really supposed to do? Was he just supposed to skate by van ryn at the last second? that would make it look like van ryn deked kosto out of his jock. Obviously the right thing to do in retrospect is to let van ryn go, but if i saw kosto pass up a chance to finish his check, that would come across as kosto not doing his job on the 4th line as an energy player... and with the habs roster, not finishing your plays can lose kosto his spot on the roster. So it really was a tough situation for kostopoulos, and probly a lose lose situation either way. Also, when it all happens within a split second, people are gunna make the wrong decisions. Tough break

Good question, i know lapierre's been getting in fights in his last two games so I dont think hes been getting a whole lot of ice time due to penalties, but if chipchura does have another strong game tonight, i would bet that lapierre's spot on the 4th line would be at risk considering that lapierre is the only replaceable centre in the current starting lineup

State's Boost For Minority-, Women-Owned
Businesses Is A Record
Staten Island commercial bank sees benefits for borough
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – Businesses owned by minorities and women on Staten Island stand to gain from New York State's newly increased goals for contracting with such firms.
Victory State Bank, Staten Island's only community-based business bank, contends that Albany's recently articulated 30 percent aim can generate much more state work on the Island.
The governor's office reported that the 30 percent goal is the highest target for any state government in the nation.
Statewide, it means billions of dollars for minority-and-women-owned enterprises (MWBE).
In the 2013-14 fiscal year, when MWBE contracting was at 25 percent, there were nearly $2 billion worth of state contracts with firms headed by minorities and wormen, the state said, adding that even this amount was the nation's highest.
The state emphasized its desire to cultivate MWBEs as well as small, emerging businesses by pointing out its procurement process and contract opportunities.
The state's Business Mentor New York program began in May. Business Mentor NY is described as a free mentoring program that connects volunteer business professionals to MWBEs and small businesses to help them address specific challenges and obstacles to success.
One-on-one guidance and counsel complements a network of financial and technical assistance providers that help owners and communities realize their full economic potential, the state said. Nearly 1,200 mentors and entrepreneurs have signed up.
These include nearly 500 pro bono business professionals, such as attorneys, accountants, consultants and other entrepreneurs and experts in the fields of finance, retail, communications, information technology, human resources and staffing, public relations, sales and marketing, who volunteer as mentors.
The MWBE team includes elected officials, business and academic leaders, and members of the Governor's cabinet and administration.
About Victory State Bank
VSB Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQB: VSBN) is the one-bank holding company for Victory State Bank. As Staten Island, N.Y.'s only community-based commercial bank, Victory State Bank operates five full-service locations on the Island: The main office in the community of Great Kills, and branches in the communities of West Brighton, St. George, Dongan Hills and Rosebank.

I am trying to see things in perspective.
chocolate chip bagel. I know she cannot
have this, because chocolate makes dogs
very sick. My dog does not understand this.
She pouts and wraps herself around my leg
like a scarf and purrs and tries to convince me
to give her just a tiny bit. When I do not give in,
she eventually gives up and lays in the corner,
under the piano, drooping and sad. I hope the
universe has my best interest in mind like I have
my dogs. When I want something with my whole
being, and the universe withholds it from me,
I hope the universe thinks to herself: "Silly girl.
She thinks this is what she wants, but she
does not understand how it will hurt.

(Source: islamicrays, via lattelovingirl)
1. Push yourself to get up before the rest of the world — start with 7 a.m., then 6 a.m., then 5:30 a.m. Go to the nearest hill with a big coat and a scarf and watch the sunrise.
2. Push yourself to fall asleep earlier — start with 11 p.m., then 10 p.m., then 9 p.m. wake up in the morning feeling re-energized and comfortable.
3. Erase processed food from your diet. Start with no candy, chips, cookies, then erase pasta, rice, cereal and then bread. Use the rule that if a child couldn't identify what was in it, you don't eat it.
4. Get into the habit of cooking yourself a beautiful breakfast. Fry tomatoes and mushrooms in real butter and garlic, fry an egg, slice up a fresh avocado and squirt way too much lemon on it. Sit and eat while doing absolutely nothing else.
5. Stretch. Start by reaching for the sky as hard as you can, then trying to touch your toes. Roll your head, stretch your fingers, stretch everything.
6. Buy a 1L water bottle. Start with pushing yourself to drink the whole thing in a day, then try drinking it twice.
7. Buy a beautiful diary and a beautiful black pen. Write down everything you do, including dinner dates, appointments, assignments, coffees, what you need to do that day. No detail is too small.
8. Strip your bed of your sheets and empty your underwear drawer into the washing machine. Put a massive scoop of scented fabric softener in there and wash everything. Then make your bed in full.
9. Organize your room. Fold all your clothes (and bag what you don't want), clean your mirror, your laptop, vacuum the floor and light a beautiful candle.
10. Have a luxurious shower with your favorite music playing. Wash your hair, scrub your body, brush your teeth. Lather your whole body in moisturizer, get familiar with the part between your toes, your inner thighs and the back of your neck.
11. Push yourself to go for a walk. Take your headphones, go to the beach and walk. Smile at strangers walking the other way and be surprised how many smile back. Bring your dog and observe the dog's behaviour. Realize how much you can learn from your dog.
12. Message old friends with personal jokes. Reminisce. Suggest a movie or sushi date soon, even if you don't usually follow through, push yourself to follow through.
14. Think long and hard about what interests you. Crime? Sex? Chinese folklore? Long-forgotten romance etiquette? Find a book about it and read it. There is a book about literally everything.
15. Become the person you would ideally fall in love with. Let cars merge into your lane when driving. Pay double for parking tickets and leave a second one in the machine. Stick your tongue out at babies. Compliment people on their cute clothes. Challenge yourself to not ridicule anyone for an entire day, then two, then a week. Walk with straight posture. Look people in the eye. Ask people about their story. Talk to acquaintances so you become friends.
16. Lie in the sunshine and daydream about the life you would lead if failure wasn't possible. Breathe in, breathe out. Open your eyes and take small steps to make it happen for you."

Pretty solid advice from "New Girl."
"I know you want to eat but it's not time to eat."
"Oh, sweet pea. You're really bad at geometry."
"You want to burrow under the blankets? You love burrowing!"
"You gain weight really weirdly, bud."
I want to talk a little bit today about my favorite thing on TV: IHOP's ad campaign.
In case you haven't caught these ads, they're filled with impossibly hip, cheerful youths (just like me and my friends!!!) who say hip, young people words about how yummeriffic these bangin' pancakes are at wickety-wack IHOP.
Check out that backwards cap on that dude! He looks rad and I bet he shreds on his BMX. Do you think he and his bro called each other that morning to coordinate the peach and green tones of their shirts? Ka-blam! Totes radical, friendoz!
"IHOP nailed it!" This guy said. Nailed what? Who cares? HashtagSweetEarringAndVestCombo, amirite?
"OMG this pile of starch is so good (and my giant glasses make me relatable, right, youths?)"
This guy mumbles a little bit, but after playing it like 15 times I'm pretty sure he honest-to-god says, "As the young people say, this has swag." (It's definitely worth it to see for yourself; he appears around 0:18.)
I'm pretty sure the mumbling was because this poor man couldn't bring himself to say the words written, undoubtedly, by three middle-aged white men in a high rise in Boise. ("Tell the kiddos to stop wearing their pants so low and make them drive slower on the freeway!")
Though the hip kid lingo is gorgeous, everyone's cartoonish enthusiasm is the best part of these ads. Nobody in the history of the world has ever made Glasses Girl's face at an IHOP—at least not from pleasure. And if you interview a typical IHOP diner, they're not going to enthusiastically shovel their pancake into their face while exclaiming, "I can't get enough of this!" They also won't say, "This is beyond delicious. I don't think 'delicious' is the right word for it." The most you'll get out of a typical IHOP diner is a shrug and nod, like, "yeah, it's OK." You also might get, "Get out of my face. I'm driving cross country and I haven't slept in 37 hours."
In conclusion, I love these ads because they make me feel like I'm just hangin' with my peer demographic of 25-to-35-year-olds, chowin' on some totes awesome 'cakes while jammin' to sweet tunes. Come on, other peer demographic members! Hop on your skateboard or car and let's flash some fat stax at IHOP! Hashtag pancakes! Hashtag self-loathing!
Discover whether you are guilty of maleficium and/or would have been accused of practicing witchcraft according to the laws and evidence used during the 1692 Salem Witch Trials.
I started to post this on my friend's Facebook wall, then I thought of about a dozen other witchy friends, and then I realized I only ever associate with witches, so may as well make this shit public.
File this next to "whalebone corsets" under "THANK GOD WE'VE (slightly) PROGRESSED."
Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be putting on pants, piloting a horseless carriage, and talking to men to whom I am not married, BRAZENLY and WITHOUT SHAME.
I was in line at the bank behind a mom and her ten-year-old son. He had the spooked-horse look of early adolescence and tried to look cool, as if his mom just "happened" to be standing with him but definitely did not under any circumstances drive him there, would not drive him home, and most certainly would not be buying him ice cream with sprinkles later.
The kid was wearing gym shorts, sandals, one blue sock and one green one, and—the pièce de résistance—a tshirt that read, "Often imitated. Never duplicated."
A montage of every stupid t-shirt I had at his age flashed in front of my eyes. I wanted to clutch this child to my bosom and rock him back and forth while singing "Kumbaya" until he stopped resisting. (Either from the peace in his heart or from the oxygen deprivation.) "Shhh, sweet prince," I would yell over his screams. "It will all be okay. IT. WILL. ALL. BE. OKAY."
"Let us rejoice in this fertile season! The sweet water goddess has visited us twice in seven moons!"
"Our prayers have been answered!"
"We should mark it: July 31-August 6 will be a feast celebration. We must not ever forget this abundance. Its memory will hold us through the lean times."
"Sacrificing Leon was completely worth it."
"Carl, we decided never to speak of that."
"I miss Leon."
"I mean it, Carl."
…Unless those thoughts are the funny kind of mean, in which case, grow away and then give them to me in a bouquet.

This Tiny Buddy is Elliot.
When we go on walks, it's very, very important to him that he pee on stuff. These walks tend to get boring for me. So I've started thinking about it like a turf war, where I'm helping Elliot stake his claim on land (mailboxes, plants, curbs) that is rightfully his. It's all a little colonialist for my taste, but I guess don't hate the player, hate the game.
Because he is the size of a loaf of Wonderbread on stilts, I consider this very serious business. He's a little dude and he doesn't get a lot of "wins" in life, so defending his territory against other animals is very important to him.
Today we conquered the courtyard of a nearby shopping center and a path behind a hotel. Go, tiny buddy, go.
I've been afraid to write from any dark places for fear that it would feel too navel-gazey and bore everyone. I've also been afraid to admit those dark places, because then the public might find out that I don't have the answers. But spoiler: I really don't. Because another spoiler: answers don't exist. Also, Santa Claus was your dad and your dog didn't really go live on a farm upstate.
New "Psychology Today" post, where I realize that waiting around until PEARLS OF WISDOM FLOW FROM MY FINGERS is really just a waste of time, 'cause sometimes I'm too sick for that shit. Also, it'll make you think a lot about spiders.

*Knock knock*. Hello everyone! How have your school days been so far? Hopefully you had a wonderful time in school! :D ..... What? You easily get bored in class? Hmm.. what about bring a cute little friend to accompany you in class? He can cheer you up. Besides, your teacher won't mad at you if you bring him. Because he will also organize your school supplies! How cool is that? Hahaha! Wait.. no! I didn't refer "he" as your cute boyfriend, neighbor, brother, or any cute guy that you find randomly. No no no. I'm going to show you my cute little friend in this DIY post, as an inspiration. Tee-hee.
I have quite a few plushies or stuffed dolls in my bedroom. It's not that I obsessed with plushie. I rarely buy them. Many of them were obtained from crane machine. Yeah, I used to love playing crane machine. Actually, still do haha, but not often. I'm not collecting plushies, I just like the taste of challenging myself to get something out of crane machine. I didn't know what to do with them (crane machine plushies). I love them all. But I feel like I have to do something to them. They can make a good use, at least one of them, rather than just sitting on my bed.
After I had a discussion with these plushies, my cute little penguin was chosen to be featured in this DIY (psst.. he hasn't got a name yet). So, we are going to do a surgery to him. Messy surgery. Before we start, he wants to say something.
"Wish me luck, buddies. I wish I will still have a cute face. If she fails, remember that I still love her and you all. Bye, for now", resigned little penguin.
Hiks, thank you penguin. I promise, you will be alright. Let's start!
*WARNING: This is a MESSY way to make a pencil case from a plushie. There will be blood and flesh from this cute plushie. If you can't stand it, skip to the final result. I apologize for the bad instructions.*
- Furry Plushie. (Should has a size that fits your stationery).
- Fabric for lining. (Preferably that won't fray such as felt and fleece).
- Needle and threads.
- Zipper.
- Scissors.
- X-Acto knife (optional).
1. First, we have to find this plushie
2. Cut on this line. I used my x-acto knife at first, then continue with scissors. This will be the opening line.
3. Take the dacron (plushie filling) out. Then, flip the plushie inside out.
4. Cut the lining fabric with the same height as the plushie height, but double the width until it can cover the plushie.
5. Fold the lining fabric covering the plushie.
6. Now, this is the hardest part to explain. Hand sew the lining fabric with the plushie fabric along the plushie line (top, bottom, and the opening line). Don't sew the lining fabric one another in the opening part, it will close the opening line. I let the head and the bottom inside the plushie unlined/uncovered, but the decision it's up to you. If you want to cover it, you have to cut the fabric height longer. For the stitch, like I said before that this is a messy way, so I used basic "running stitch". It's not neat, but it's work. Why you should use furry plushie? So the stitch will easily hidden from the outside :P.
7. After all of that wearying part, cut the excess fabric.
No, we're not done yet. We have to face another torture. It's time to place the zipper.
8. Open and reverse the zipper, so the right side of the zipper face the right side of the plushie fabric. Sew the left part of the zipper with the right part of the plushie opening line. If the zipper has too much excess, cut it but leave a few inches.
9. Next, another hard to explain instructions. Flip back the zipper. Insert the excess zipper inside the plushie body. Then, with any kind of way to make the zipper right side face the plushie fabric right side again, sew them each other.
10. After that, flip the plushie inside out. Sew the end of the zipper to the plushie.
11. Sew another end. We do it so the excess zipper will stay in the inside.
Finally!!! Flip the plushie inside out again, and try to play the zipper hehe. Wake up penguin, you are alive again! I told you, you'll be fine.
Stuff this plushie with your stationery. Now we have this cute little penguin as our pencil case!! Yeaaay!!! The pain has been paid off with its cuteness! As a spoiler, I failed on the first try. So I had to unstitch it. It was painful. Then I took another way to make it, and this is it. Hopefully it makes sense to you. If not, I hope it inspires you to make it with your own way :D.
This little friend has been my friends's toy in the class. Hahaha! But warn them not to play it often in the class. We should still pay attention to the class lesson. (Actually, I can't warn them hehe).
Enjoy your new friend!

Five-Spot Challenge 2014: Indiana
Congratulations to MichiganMack for picking up his first Five-Spot Challenge win of the season. He won once in 2012 and finished fourth in the overall standings that year and third last year. Last week he was the only contestant under 100 deviation points with a total of 98.7, beating second place Maizenblu62, who had 112.3. MichiganMack was the closest to predicting Michigan's total yards, only 14 away from Michigan's total of 186. He was the second closest to Devin Gardner's quarterback rating (71.7) with a prediction of 70.0. He wins a $20 gift card to The M Den.
Mofobro was the closest to Michigan State receiver Tony Lippett's receiving yards. Lippett finished with 103 and mofobro predicted 101. JustJeepGear.com and Maizenblu62 were both three away. Freezer566 correctly predicted that Michigan would lose 30 yards on sacks and tackles for loss. Bigboyblue was the closest to Gardner's quarterback rating with his prediction of 70.4. Finally, Dennis Norfleet did not record a single kickoff return, so saline_ian was the closest with his prediction of 22 yards.
Surprisingly, seven of the 19 contestants picked Michigan to win, but the average score prediction from all 19 was Michigan State 30 – Michigan 19. MichiganMack was the closest to the actual score of 35-11 with his prediction of 31-13.
The weekly results have been updated and the overall standings will be updated soon.
Michigan returns home this week to face Indiana. Last season, it was an offensive shootout in which Michigan set several single-game records. Here are this week's questions:

moreWhen someone enters hospital for examination or treatment, is given a doctor's prescription, receives medication from a pharmacist or has his drugs administered by a nurse, he assumes that his health and welfare will benefit from this medical intervention. But the effectiveness of available therapies should also be viewed from the perspective of potentially negative consequences: adverse drug events (ADE). ADEs endanger patients' safety and increase hospital costs, making reduction of preventable ADEs a crucial and challenging public health issue. This book presents papers from the workshop 'Patient Safety through Intelligent Procedures in medication' focusing on the following topics: the identification of ADE and medication errors in hospital settings; the role of human and organizational factors on ADE and medication errors; and information and communication technologies to prevent or correct ADEs and medication errors. The papers in this book are the work of active scientific experts in the field and confront ideas and experiences arising worldwide and in particular from several EU projects directed at resolving ADE problems. less

Apple and Samsung were back in district court in California Thursday.
Samsung wants the jury verdict finding it ripped off the iPhone overturned or the $1.05 billion judgment against it reduced. It's one of the largest decisions ever in an IP case.
Apple, which says its future depends on differentiation, wants the judgment increased to $1.77 billion for willful infringement and eight of Samsung aging widgets permanently enjoined.
It also wants the jury verdict that the iPad wasn't infringed overturned.
Samsung wants an entirely new trial claiming the jury was tainted by the foreman Velvin Hogan who "deliberately concealed information" about a lawsuit with hard drive-maker Seagate nearly 20 years ago that resulted in his filing for bankruptcy.
Samsung subsequently bought a minority piece of Seagate and claims Apple's lawyers knew about Hogan's situation and didn't disclose it to gain "a tactical advantage."
It also claims Hogan's comments to reporters after the verdict raise the possibility he gave jurors bad advice about how to apply the law.
If Samsung doesn't get what it wants it's going to appeal.
Meanwhile, although Samsung says it has "no intention" of reaching a similar settlement, the bones of the surprise 10-year licensing agreement cut in November between Apple and HTC, another Android device maker, have been disclosed as part of the Samsung litigation.
For a price Apple is broadly letting HTC use its pinch-to-zoom, tap-to-zoom and slide-to-unlock features, but drew the line at other innovations like rubber-banding and all its design patents.
Unfortunately the terms of the settlement are redacted so it's unclear how much Apple demanded for the concession.
However, like Apple's patent deal with Microsoft, HTC has agreed not to clone Apple products.
The deal is non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-sublicensable. Apple has agreed not to sue HTC over certain covered products, but the specific products are redacted.
FOSS Patents says, "The Apple-HTC agreement defines a very important term: Distinctive Apple User Experience. That's what Apple seeks to protect and that's something that is not for sale."
Apple has agreed to go to arbitration with any cloning claim.
On the other hand, if the official Android spec requires HTC to implement certain functionality, Apple can't exercise its anti-cloning rights. Apple would have to sue Google directly.
FOSS says, "Apple is obviously not afraid of Google. Otherwise it would never have sued HTC and other Google partners, and wouldn't continue to be suing a wholly owned Google subsidiary, Motorola Mobility."
Of course Samsung can now argue that the pinch-to-zoom patent can't be used to ban its products and that Apple's willingness to license its patents should weigh against its claims of irreparable harm from continued infringement.
Apple can retort that it hasn't waived all its rights to seek injunctive relief.
FOSS says, "By ordering an injunction, Judge Koh would give Apple leverage and increase the likelihood of Samsung agreeing to an HTC-like agreement. By denying an injunction, she would allow Samsung to clone the Distinctive Apple User Experience, and would have to determine the amount Samsung would have to pay for continued infringement."
The deal doesn't limit Apple's use of HTC's patents.
AllThingsD and CNET have published the latest redaction of the HTC agreement. The black ink appears to cover more than just the royalty rates that HTC must pay Apple.

Predicted by Gartner to add $1.9 trillion to the global economy by 2020, the Internet of Everything (IoE) is based on the idea that devices, systems and services will connect in simple, transparent ways, enabling seamless interactions among devices across brands and sectors. As this vision unfolds, it is clear that no single company can accomplish the level of interoperability required to support the horizontal aspects of the IoE. The AllSeen Alliance, announced in December 2013, was formed with the goal to advance IoE adoption and innovation in the connected home, healthcare, education, aut...

TechCrunch reported that "Berlin-based relayr, maker of the WunderBar, an Internet of Things (IoT) hardware dev kit which resembles a chunky chocolate bar, has closed a $2.3 million seed round, from unnamed U.S. and Switzerland-based investors. The startup had previously raised a €250,000 friend and family round, and had been on track to close a €500,000 seed earlier this year — but received a higher funding offer from a different set of investors, which is the $2.3M round it's reporting."

The Industrial Internet revolution is now underway, enabled by connected machines and billions of devices that communicate and collaborate. The massive amounts of Big Data requiring real-time analysis is flooding legacy IT systems and giving way to cloud environments that can handle the unpredictable workloads. Yet many barriers remain until we can fully realize the opportunities and benefits from the convergence of machines and devices with Big Data and the cloud, including interoperability, data security and privacy.

Santa's secret helper
Date: December 23, 2009
by: Heidi Kurpiela
How does a native Floridian become the go-to source for winter wonderlands?
In the case of Roselle Stroz, it's by working 28 days straight during the holidays, tastefully decorating Santa sets inside area malls from Sarasota to Tampa.
Stroz is a freelance visual merchandiser who got her start dressing up the storefronts and mannequins at American Eagle and Armani stores. A Largo native, Stroz, 37, owns Floresca Designs, a retail design company responsible for window displays inside mall department stores.
Like a crafty unsung elf with discerning tinsel tastes and a flair for fluffing fake snow, Stroz is also responsible for the Santa sets inside Westfield's Sarasota Square and Southgate malls, in addition to Tampa's Westshore Plaza and Citrus Park Town Center.
"I work as fast as I can so the kids don't see me," Stroz says. "They always come up to the set expecting to see Santa. I love seeing their eyes light up, but I don't want to give anything away."
Although Stroz doesn't design or build the set structures, she lays every bit of faux snow; strings every ribbon and light; hangs every ornament and pine wreath. She crafts swags and prop snowmen and arranges empty boxes wrapped in gold paper. She climbs ladders and crawls on her knees. She comes home at night covered in glitter, bits of velvet ribbon and cotton batting.
"She is Santa's elf you never see," says Todd Beckwith, Westfield's marketing director.
A former fashion-design major, Stroz has been designing and decorating Santa sets for five years. She begins her season by sketching designs the day after Halloween and, in November, submits them to Westfield's marketing and advertising department.
Like any set designer, she must stick to a budget. Every overhead design must be approved and every ornament and ribbon agreed upon. Stroz needs adequate time to order materials and touch up paint on aging props, as was the case this year at the Citrus Park Mall, where the Santa set includes 20, 4-foot-tall Christmas mice as old as the 10-year-old mall.
She says this year's Santa house at the Sarasota Square Mall was her favorite assignment. Nearly double the size of Southgate's snowy window backdrop, the Sarasota Square set, designed to look like Santa's North Pole home, took 12 hours to decorate and required 240 yards of batting.
"My knees aren't as good as they used to be," says Stroz, who admits she was so tired from decorating Santa sets this season she turned her own Christmas tree over to her her 2-year-old and 5-year-old daughters. "It's missing a tree-topper and only has ornaments from my waist down."
1. Save the Christmas inflatables for parade floats.
"I personally don't like the inflatable Santas. They're unimaginative. They require no creativity."
2. Leave no branch undecorated.
"Fill your tree with ornaments. They don't have to match, just fill the empty spaces. A weakly decorated tree will not look finished."
3. It takes a village to raise a miniature display.
"The little Christmas villages people put up in their homes are fine if there's a cluster of houses. One or two won't make an impact. Have as much out as you can."
4. Dancing Santas have no rhythm.
"Santas that dance and make noise are horrible."
5. Bows are cheap and dress up everything.
"You can pick up a bow-maker at any craft store. It's just two wooden slats that fold ribbon a certain way. I use bows to decorate trees and packages, anything really. You can use it year-round on birthday presents."

My son started consistently STTN at 2-3 months (7-8pm bedtime, 10pm dream feed, 6-8am wake up) but has been getting up right around 4am almost every night the past few weeks. I've been feeding him in case he's hungry, but I don't know if that's what's really up. I've heard that the dream feed can become counterproductive to nighttime sleep, so tonight I decided to see how he does without it. I pumped at the normal dream feed time with the intention of giving him that if/when he wakes in the night, so I can see what he's actually drinking when he wakes. BUT I only got 1 oz when I pumped! That's unusual for me, but then again, I've never pumped at 10pm like that before. Could this be a supply problem, or is that normal to get less late in the evening like that? (He nursed about 2.5 - 3 hours before I pumped.) If it's a supply issue, maybe addressing that will satisfy his appetite better...thoughts? Thanks!
Milk supply dropping at night?
Comments (5)
Pumping isn't as effective as a baby nursing, so he is probably getting more than what you can pump. And by the last feeding of the day they are getting hindmilk, which is much higher in fat & calories so they don't need as much.
He might be having a growth spurt & needs the extra feeding. Or he might just be waking up & wanting some extra mommy time. Or he might be teething. You could try a different soothing technique for 5-10 minutes & see if that works before you nurse him. However, in the MOTN I tend to find it much quicker & easier just to nurse - knocks em out every time!

Mommy to Milo (3-29-10) & Ella (4-14-12)
Yeah, it's so hard to try to think logically about the best approach to figure out what's happening when you just want to nurse and go back to bed!
It's completely normal to produce less at night, don't worry if you pumped at 10pm and got 1oz, that's actually pretty good. We naturally produce the most usually between 1-3am because we produce more prolactin when asleep.
I think it's probably normal. I pump every night before bed around 11pm and get about 5oz. I've pumped at this time every night for months, though, so my body is used to it and that may be a factor.

I was so excited to receive my Fatboy bean bag chair, but as soon as I hopped on, I hit the floor. Over the next few days, I have re-positioned and tried to fluff up the beans, to no avail.
