Front-end Web Development/Notes
Notes from previous Frontend Web Development classes.
Class for 2013-08-26: ClassName Swap, Language Review, RTFM, by Garrett Smith
Lesson: CSS ClassName Swap
By changing an element's
className multiple styles can be changed at one time.
Using the descendant selector, and changing the
className of an ancestor element, multiple elements can be updated simultaneously, with a modicum of highly efficient code.
For Styles, replace a loop that applies styles to descendants by adding a class token to the nearest common ancestor (example, explanation).
Calculating Selector's Specificity (CSS 2.1).
The classname swap example leverages the fact that class selectors (e.g.
.foo) have higher specificity than element selectors (e.g.
CSS Selector specificity is determined four numbers, a-b-c-d, in a number system with a large base.
count 1 if the declaration is from is a 'style' attribute rather than a rule with a selector, 0 otherwise (= a) (In HTML, values of an element's "style" attribute are style sheet rules. These rules have no selectors, so a=1, b=0, c=0, and d=0.) count the number of ID attributes in the selector (= b) count the number of other attributes and pseudo-classes in the selector (= c) count the number of element names and pseudo-elements in the selector (= d)
Unschooling and autodidacticism; an Intro to RTFM, RTFFAQ, and SFTW.
Understanding defines the difference between the followers, who resort to mystical incantations or convoluted DOM libraries to do the work for them, and those who can implement project requirements, as specified, with clean code (Vimeo). And not downloading free scripts off dynamic drive or [ jQuery], copying, or programming by observation.
When misunderstandings or debates arise, and that happens fairly often, it is important how to find the answer using STFW and RTFM, and when that fails, how (and where (CIWAS, JSMentors, c.l.js, ciwah) to ask a smart question.
JavaScript Review
Other versions of ECMAScript, including E4X and Compact, are out of scope for this class.
FAQ, also hosted on Matt's site.
Class for 2013-08-12: More useful jQuery plugins
Our final jQuery-focused class touched on a number of other common plugins that are found in the wild. We took a closer look at Bootstrap and jQuery UI, and looked at plugins that make your page look super snazzy:
- Datepicker (jQuery UI) - fancy datepickers appearing near your input fields
- Accordion (jQuery UI) - collapse and unfold lists of elements
- Scrollspy (Bootstrap) - change navs to highlight where you are scrolled on a page
- Cycle - make easy slideshows
- Chosen - style dropdowns

Class for 2013-08-05: Sign-up forms
We continued working on our site and added a sign-up form, with validation, inside the modal. We used the jQuery Validation plugin. Validation is a very common request from clients and it comes in handy to know all the tips and tricks of forms and validation, and what new HTML5 elements can provide.
Lecture video
Lecture materials
We went back to the "professional" site we'd put together a number of weeks ago and added more functionality to it with some jQuery plugins. We first made a dialog box - or a "modal" - pop up when you click the sign up buttons. We did this by introducing jQuery UI to make common user controls easier to create. We also added some dropdown functionality to our menus using pure CSS, but explained that jQuery UI can help out with the subtle nuances of menus.

Class for 2013-07-22: AJAX
We talked about Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, a technology that allows us to talk to a server without leaving the page. jQuery makes this extremely easy. We added AJAX functionality to our app we've been building on. We used this PHP file to test it out.

Class for 2013-07-15: jQuery, cont'd
We continued learning about jQuery by focusing on the example we saw last week. We added functionality to it that made it seem more like the real thing.

Class for 2013-07-08: jQuery
We introduced jQuery, a JavaScript library that makes web programming a whole lot easier. jQuery is the most popular of many libraries that allow us to interact with the document easily, while also providing us with a few tools that are missing from the base language.
To learn what jQuery can do, we added some scripting to this sample web app.

Class for 2013-07-01: JavaScript, cont'd
We continued discussing JavaScript basics: arrays, objects, creating functions, and scopes.

Class for 2013-06-17: HTTP & SFTP
We talked about file transfer: HTTP, which is the method of getting and sending information in the web browser, and SFTP, which is a method of securely uploading files to a web host.
We set up free web hosting accounts at NearlyFreeSpeech.NET, and uploaded to them using the FileZilla client.
Class for 2013-06-03: Working from professional mockups, cont'd
We continued putting our professional-looking site together from where we left off. We focused on some fancy CSS3 techniques, and we saw how to make an interactive dropdown menu with no JavaScript.
We didn't exactly finish, but I went ahead and put on the finishing touches. The final product can be found here (but where we left off can be found in the lecture materials).

Class for 2013-05-20: Working from professional mockups
We took the knowledge we gained from looking at the CSS box model, floats, and positioning, and worked off of something given to us by a designer (me).
We worked off of this mockup and its annotated version to make a site that could pass as a professional design (but don't take my word for it). Image assets can be found here.

Class for 2013-05-13: CSS positioning
In the last few classes, we focused on element measurements and floats. This time, we focused on positioning of elements: spacing them out from other elements using margins, and using absolute, relative, or fixed positioning to put the elements anywhere we want on the whole page.
Lecture video
Lecture materials
Class for 2013-05-06: CSS floats
Floating is the secret sauce behind creating websites with multiple columns, navigation menus, and basically any block element that's aligned to the left or right. We learned about floats by taking a look at some examples, then took a mockup and created a site from it.
Lecture video
Lecture materials
Class for 2013-04-22: CSS selectors and the box model
CSS selectors are probably the most complex part of the CSS language, so we looked at them further in-depth. We also talked about the box model, the display concept that makes words and containers on the web look like they do.
Lecture video
Lecture materials
Class for 2013-04-15: the basics
We covered the very basics:
- Explaining "frontend" vs. "backend"
- Discussing tools of the trade
- Explaining the separation between structure, presentation, and behavior
- Writing a basic HTML page
- Styling the page with basic CSS
- Explaining the role of frontend web development as a job and career

Ellertson, Culp, Ashley, And Swaim Victory Lane Visitors At CGS
By Ben Deatherage
(Photos Courtesy of Madman Photography)
Some good racing was on tap for the Cottage Grove Speedway on Saturday night. The August 24th racing card would consist of the Northwest Extreme Sprints, Late Models, Street Stocks, and Hornets all on the card. The winner's circle at the end of the night would see its fair share of new faces as well as repeat winners.
Fall Creek's Nathan Ellertson was in dominant form in the Northwest Extreme Sprint feature. The driver of the 4 His Glory Racing/1st Choice Construction/Bear Racing Components #4E Rocket would lead the main event from the get go. Ellertson would be challenged a handful of times but he kept all challengers in check. It would mark Ellertson's first ever win at the Cottage Grove Speedway as it would be all smiles in victory lane.
Vern Scevers of La Pine, driving the Casey's Family Restaurant/Paint By Tyson #15R Maxim would end his evening in second followed by the Redmond Trucking #57 Rocket of Dusty Redmond from Roseburg. Eugene's Raquel Ivie recovered from an early race spin to finish her Three Rivers Casino/Northwest Training Center/Bi-Mart #70 Maxim in fourth while Terry Hall of Dallas would place his Hall Transcribing/Washington Street Steakhouse #10T Rocket in fifth.
In the Hornet feature it appeared Mike Simmons in his Industrial Finishes/Bill's Automotive #34 would be the car to beat. Simmons opened up a sizable lead early in the feature, while the battle on the race track was for second between Friday night feature winner, in the Big Dog Recycling #17 truck, of Taunton Swaim from Dexter and current point leader Joe Maricle of Veneta in his Ram Jack Foundation Repair #11. Swaim would eventually be able to create some distance between himself and Maricle, but Simmons' lead was only getting bigger.
Slower traffic would eventually come into play and Taunton Swaim would take full advantage of it inching his way closer to the #34 of Simmons. Just Inside five laps to go Swaim would catch Simmons and make the pass holding on for the win to make it two nights in a row in victory lane.
Mike Simmons would finish second followed by Joe Maricle in third. Fourth would belong to the Material Fabrication #28 of Chris Peirce from Cottage Grove and rounding out the top five was K.C. Scott in the Dalton Carpet/T.L. Morgan Motors #30 from Springfield.
The Street Stocks hosted a very competitive field of cars as Larry Crane in the, Froggy's Towing/Bird Tracs Embroidery #16K Camaro, would be the early race leader. He would be overtaken moments by the Nathan Anderson Dentistry/Platinum Hair of Creswell #73 Nova of Darin Crooks from Cottage Grove.
The Pure Romance-Leslie Grimes/S.D.M.F. Race Cars/ Brad's Car Tunes #01 Camaro of Jake Mayden would on Crooks after working his way through traffic. Crooks and Mayden would have a good battle for the lead with the outcome being the #01 as the new race leader. Mayden would develop a large lead and win the race but unfortunately after the post-race inspection Mayden would have to forfeit his win giving it to Jasper's Ricky Ashley in the T.J. Langan owned Taco Bell-Cottage Grove/D&L Truck Parts #85 entry.
Kelly McDonald of Cottage Grove, driving the Tom Langan owned D&L Truck Parts#74, would come in second followed by Darin Crooks in third. Finishing in fourth was the Stacy Graves Massage Therapy/Nathan Anderson Dentistry #00 of Eugene's Steve Begley and rounding out the top five was Cottage Grove youngster Dusten Henderson in fifth in his Fountain Gutter/White Water Well Drilling #0½ Camaro.
In the Late Model division Chuck Christian of Eugene was the early race leader and built a good size lead in the early stages of the race. The chauffeur, Christian, of the Redwood Northwest/Colleen's One Stop Bird Shop/Eco-Machine Technologies #422 GRT would find himself battling with the likes of Paul Culp for the much desired top spot.
Culp, from Springfield, would get the lead just before the completion the tenth circuit. He then would pace the field the rest of the way and pick up the win. It would be Culp's second win in his X-Factor Race Cars/Northwest Gallery #42 X-Factor and his first triumph since winning the season opener back in April.
Chuck Christian was a respectable second followed by third place finisher Shaun Mayea of Bend in his Cold Springs Resort/R.G. Remanufacturing/Driving Force Graphics #36 Rocket. Crossing the start/finish line in fourth would be the Gary Wilson Racing Engines/Quantum Mechanics #03 Swartz of Kevin Ropchan out of Veneta and in fifth was Tanner Wines of Lebanon in the Pickle Trucking/Kartco Racing #77 MasterSbilt driving for car owner Kris Pickle.
The Cottage Grove Speedway will be quite busy next weekend. Friday August 30th will kick things off with the always entertaining Kage Karts. Saturday August 31st and Sunday September 1st will see the return of the Cottage Grove Speedway Wingless Nationals presented by Herz Precision Parts. This event will feature the Northwest Wingless Tour for the biggest Non-Wing Sprint race in the Pacific Northwest.
Support classes for both nights will include IMCA Modified and the Pro-4's. Don't forget that on Wednesday September 4th the World of Outlaw Sprints will be back after a year hiatus. The support class on this evening will be the DIRTcar Super Late Models as they compete for a $1,000.00 to win main event.

For Instructors Spinning
The Big 4
04/21/2011 8:41 am
For those of you who don?t know, there is an extremely important event happening just outside of Los Angeles, Ca. this weekend. Many people (like me) see it as a day where unique history will be made and talked about for quite some time. What is this event you ask? The Big Four 4 show is this Saturday in Indio, Ca. It will feature the original four thrash-metal bands on one stage for the first time in the United States. Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax, began an entirely new style of music right about the time hair metal was controlling MTV. This show will be a tribute to their longevity and importance in the development of hard rock music. As I wait for the show to begin, I?m wondering what four music groups I would select as the Big Four of the Spinning. Which four groups have established themselves as artists that consistently assist instructors with their driving beats and energetic rhythms? My list is: 1: The Crystal Method 2: Paul Oakenfold 3: The Black Eyed Peas 4: Paul Van Dyk (my write-in vote for #5 would be Moby)Share

Dow Chemical says the recently-released report showing a positive economic impact is flawed, misleading, and based on outdated, inaccurate and incomplete data.
Dow Chemical believes a recently-completed study showing a
positive US economic impact from proposed LNG export projects is misleading and fails to
give due consideration to the importance of manufacturing, the
US-based company said on Friday.
"The report issued by the DOE on liquefied natural gas (LNG)
exports is flawed, misleading, and based on outdated,
inaccurate and incomplete economic data," said Andrew N.
Liveris, Dows CEO.
"Manufacturing is the largest user of natural gas in the US,
and creates more jobs and more value to the US economy from
natural gas than any other sector," he continued.
"The value of every unit of energy used by the manufacturing
sector is multiplied by as many as 20 times from the production
of thousands of high value products though the value chain.
Compare this to the 1-time value created by exporting energy as
liquefied natural gas."
Liveris said the report also fails to consider the "tremendous
competitive advantage" that cheap natural gas prices could
offer to the US if held for domestic use.
"Instead, the report offers the baffling conclusion that the US
would be better off using its domestic natural gas advantage to
fuel growth and jobs in other regions versus strengthening the
US economy through manufacturing and benefiting consumers with
lower energy costs," Liveris said.
The CEO noted that numerous capital
investments had already been made that
were predicated on abundant and affordable natural gas,
yet those were not reflected in the report. Dow
Chemical, for example, is planning to build new ethylene and propylene
capacity in the US Gulf region by the end of the
"Unfortunately, policy makers have been given a
flawed report that overlooks vital dynamics, including a
manufacturing renaissance that is already underway and much
needed by this country," Liveris said.
All comments are subject to editorial review.
All fields are compulsory.
Keith Bowers
Dow Chemical has reminded everyone the U.S. chemical and petrochemical industry adds tremendous value to the raw BTU content of LNG. The highest overall value to the U.S. economy is certainly as petrochem feedstock. We should not encourage any export of raw materials that we then import as higher valued products made from those exports. That scenario defines a 'Colony.'
Bill Mayer
Governments should not get into the price fixing game. Let the market forces determine the best use / profit to those who do the work to explore for these resources.
Bill Mayer
He's right. And we should prohibit the export of plastic products to make them cheaper to industrial users too!
Don Koza
Perhaps there is some truth to both sides. There are many (mostly smaller) countries that import oil for generating electricity that would certainly benefit from a reliable lower cost LNG supply. The US would likewise benefit from the sales, as long as there is a stable supply for US industry. It is not "either or," but "both and."
I.F.J. Winterberg
Perhaps a free market, such as it is, should determine the ultimate use of this new abundant supply of natural gas and liquids. Yet Dow (and other domestic users) on one side and exporters on the other will expend their best lobbying efforts to influence government regulations to achieve their respective interests. So be it.
Fully agree and support the statements by Andrew N. Liveris CEO of Dow Chemical. In addition natural gas is needed for power generation and LNG for heavy truck fuel. Export of LNG is counter-productive and undermines our national economic recovery.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

What to Know About Lumber Sizes
Lumber Sizes Are Random
Hardwood lumber is different from standardized softwood lumber (such as 1x6 and 2x4 pine). Hardwoods come in various widths and lengths, which is why it may take longer to get your order together, and why you may need to buy more footage than you realize. The stack of mahogany above shows how lumber comes in many widths, rarely uniform.
We can select lumber to meet or exceed your requirements
For example, if you ask for 10 boards 6" wide and 72" long, we probably won't be able to send you boards that are precisely 6" wide or exactly 72" long. Instead, we'll need to:
- Send you enough material to yield your request, and
- therefore the adjust the footage you order and bill it accordingly.
Due the nature of hardwood lumber, each board in a stack is a different size, with different grain characteristics, etc. Our primary concern is providing you with quality material that you like. We want you to be happy and therefore we want to make sure you get what you need so your project can be a successful one.
What if I need specific sizes?
You'll join & cut to your project's sizes
Hardwood lumber is sold as a bulk raw product, which means that our stacks of lumber have a big variety of sizes most often from 4" up to 12" wide, and 6' to 16' long.
- Only some unusual exotic woods are narrower than 4" and under 6' long. This is clearly stated when that's the case, everything else is larger.
- We always ship the longest boards possible, and rarely ship boards less than 48" long unless you request shorter. The longest we can ship by UPS is 96" (that's 8').
For custom furniture building, the various widths and lengths often meet the needs and desires of woodworkers. But we do understand that certain projects have some requirements, and we're happy to help you out.
Here's how we can help you get the sizes you need:
- We can hand-select material that will yield what you need. Type your needs into the "Selection Request" field right above the Add to Cart button above when you place your order.
- We can do some limited custom milling such as planing to a different thickness and straight-line ripping one edge. Please call or email to talk about your needs.
Lumber Thickness Compared
The thickness of hardwood lumber is expressed as a fraction in quarters of an inch. 4/4 is the most common, and roughly means 1" thick. Here are the various lumber thicknesses compared to one another.

Woodworkers Source Responds
Thanks, Michael. To be clear, you can always specify lengths you need when you buy lumber (see here). However, this particular product "Craft Pack" states in the description that the lengths are between 2' and 4'. We can always accommodate your length needs as long as we know what you need.

Why Your Lumber Quantity May Need To Change
In short, you may receive slightly more wood than you order and be charged for it. But don't worry, this is usually no more than a fraction of a board foot, but we do need to charge you for exactly what you receive. Why? Because the amount of wood you buy is largely dependent on the sizes available in the lumber pile. We will always do our best to ship you what you order, though.
Here's an Example
If you order 2 board feet of a wood, the board we may need to ship you could be something like 4/4x6-1/2"x49". That's actually 2.21 board feet, and that's what you will be charged for.
Here's What to Know
- We will aim to come as close as possible to the board footage you order
- We will ask for your permission if the overage is 10% more than the amount you originally ordered
- If you order, as an example, 10 board feet of a wood, you won't get 12 or 15 board feet. It may be more like 10.2 or 10.8
- Due the nature of hardwood lumber, each board in a stack is a different size, with different grain characteristics
- Our primary concern is providing you with quality material that you like
- We want to make sure you get what you need so your project can be a successful one
Shipping Costs also will be adjusted to reflect the actual quantity we're shipping you as well.
We we want you to be happy with your order and our service! So if you still have concerns about what you need and what we can do for you, please call to discuss. Due to the limitations of website software, it's best to handle this type of order person-to-person.

We pay the return shipping if you aren't happy
Yes, that's an awfully expensive proposition -- that's exactly why we work hard to get it right the first time by asking you questions about your projects, being careful with hand selection, and being mindful that you're putting your trust in us to pick out great looking wood that you'll be proud of.
Hand Selected Lumber
There's Only One Way to Do This, and That's By Hand
Your order gets attention by a real person who selects your wood, one piece at a time, and whose goal is to make you happy that you chose to do business with us.

The Woodworkers Source Difference
Friendly Help and Woodworking Advice
The members of our crew are woodworking hobbyists too, so they get to know many of our woods by working with them. When you call or email, you'll talk to a friendly fellow woodworker who understands your concerns and, more importantly, is willing to help.
We Enjoy the Craft of Woodworking
That's why we provide tips and advice through as many channels as possible:
No One Knows it All
Woodworking is a very broad topic, and there's no one who knows it all. But fortunately we have a staff of people who each have knowledge of different specialties. So if the person you're speaking with doesn't know the answer, they'll find someone who does.
What Is a Straight Line Rip?
Make It Easier to Cut to Size on Your Table Saw
All of our lumber is stocked surfaced on two sides - which means the face and back of the boards are good and smooth and the edges are rough sawn. A rough edge is rarely suitable to be guided against a table saw fence. A straight line rip puts a true edge on the board so you can run it against a table saw fence and cut the width you need. A straight line rip is also performed after measuring the board. The rip will remove 1/16" to 1/8" from the width of the board.
So you might be wondering why
Hardwood lumber is primarily a raw product. It's been sawn from a log with big machinery that leaves rough surfaces. We then have the material surfaced (planed) on the two faces (after it's been kiln dried) and we stock it this way - smooth faces, rough edges. There are many benefits to stocking lumber like this, the biggest reason is because we find it to be a decent balance between cost and usefulness to the woodworker. Every aspect of machining adds cost to the wood, so we minimize that as much as possible by only having the lumber planed. It allows you to have a workable and smooth surface and also see the grain and color of the boards. Though every board will have to be jointed or straight-line-ripped eventurally, there's no distinctive advantage to stocking it with the edges already straightened. Plus it would add cost. Where many experienced woodworkers might prefer fully rough lumber, we find that many new and intermediate woodworkers do not have a planer, the critical tool for surfacing lumber. And we're here to serve woodworkers of all skill and experience levels as best we can.
Selection Requests are $1.00 /bd. ft.
Selection service means we'll hand select wood that can yield what you request and you'll do your own cutting to final size.
Example: a request for 6" widths means we'll select wood to be between 6-1/2" and 8" wide so you can cut to a final size of 6".
Selection service doesn't include custom cutting to exact sizes for you. Instead, our selection service allows you to request minimum size requirement or special wood characteristics.
Questions? Please call 800-423-2450.
4 Things To Know About Size Requests
- Your wood will need to be cut to final size by you: Your selection request needs to reflect you need to yield out of a board, or what your minimum size is. We will not cut anything to exact dimensions based on sizes you type into the selection box. If you need wood cut to an exact size, please call for a quote 800-423-2450
- You may be charged for more wood than you order: We will select material that can yield your specified dimension(s). That means we may have to ship you board(s) that are wider or longer than you request, and therefore they may compute to more footage than you calculated. You will be billed for the actual footage that we ship (More At Bottom). Yes, we always contact you first to discuss and make sure you get what you need and are not surprised by additional charges. It might take longer to get your wood.
- Selecting lumber to your specifications may take longer than our standard 3 day turn around: Yes, we always contact you to let you know.
- We we want you to be happy with your order and our service: So if you still have concerns about what you need and what we can do for you, please call to discuss. If you do need pieces cut to specific sizes, please call or email for a quote to do so. We'll be happy to help. Due to the limitations of website software, it's best to handle this type of order person-to-person.

Today's card is made using the Martha Stewart Birthday Cake Art cartridge. It is so perfect for birthday cards! I made this one for my little English nephew. Do you think that I remembered to give it to him though while they were here last week? NO! What is wrong with me? I am like the saying about the cobbler's children having no shoes. I have drawers full of cards and constantly forget to send them out. I need help.

For Instructors Spinning
Acknowledge and Ignore
01/19/2011 1:04 am
You know, there are all sorts of people who come in through my studio door for Spinning® classes, just like I?m sure come through yours. Recently, I met two new clients who seem really similar to each other, though they have never met. What makes them similar, in my mind, is they really give off this sort of energy, which lets me know that all they want from me is to be acknowledged and ignored. Have you ever met clients like this? Both clients are new to my studio and to Spinning® as a whole, but despite this one similarity, in many ways they are polar opposites. He is a runner. He is athletic and competitive. He has a frustrating injury so is taking time off from running and treating his heart to Spinning®. I get the feeling he would just as soon not be there, hasn?t been privy to much coaching, but is hard-core. A sort of a ?just get on the road and run? kind of guy, he just gets down to it and has somehow put up this invisible wall so I don?t feel like he is very approachable. But, hey?he keeps coming back, so I won?t take it personally. She, on the other hand seems mortified by her own body. In speaking with her, it seems as if she was thin and fit for her whole childhood and teen years, but somehow, mysteriously, magically woke up fat one day. She seems shy, embarrassed and reluctant to chat with anyone in the class, but me?at the end?after everyone else has left?and she keeps coming back, so? I know she?s getting something out of it. As a person who is probably off the scales of emotional intelligence (if not a little humble, eh hem...), I consider myself intuitive and clued in and I like to engage people ? playfully and respectfully in class, so I have found it such a wonderful challenge to ?A&I? these two clients. Acknowledge and Ignore, that?s what I call it. It?s called ?giving space.? Okay, it doesn?t really have a name but I like to challenge the notion that you ?can?t be everything to everyone.? The key is to remember that when you?re ?on? as the professional that you are, you have to drop a little of the notion that you need something from you clients ? Do you really NEED them to whoop and holler? Do you have to hear how great your music is from everyone all the time? Do you need smiles on their faces, or better yet, the look of agony? Or can you just let them be? Look after their safety, their form, and all that without demanding feedback? It would be different if they were actively negative or disruptive or real downers, but they're not. They're polite and simply try to fly under the radar screen...and, you know...I think I totally empathize with both of them.Share

Animals range from the cute pets we love
to have in our homes to the odd creatures of the deep sea, animals we need
on farms and ranches, and animals living in the wild. Some people devote
their entire lives to caring for or trying to better understand animals,
while others simply enjoy the kitten or goldfish that is part of the
family. All animals have a special place in the world, even the ones we
don't particularity care for like jelly fish or snakes. Even the people
that don't really like animals still have a great time working on animal
coloring pages.

(Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis)
LASIK is a surgery that uses a laser to reshape the cornea of the eye. This reshaping changes focusing power and usually corrects vision. Surgery may be done on both eyes, either at the same time or on separate occasions.
Cornea of the Eye
Reasons for Procedure
LASIK is done to eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Most people who get LASIK will still need reading glasses at middle age and beyond to correct for presbyopia (decreased ability to focus due to age). Be sure to discuss presbyopia with your doctor prior to getting LASIK so that you understand how it will affect your vision.
Possible Complications
LASIK eye surgery has a relatively low complication rate, but they can occur. Possible complications include, but are not limited to:
- Under- or over-correction of the cornea shape
- Infection
- Scarring
- Fuzzy or blurry vision
- Poor night vision
- Seeing halos or sunbursts around light/glare
- Long-term dryness, scratchiness, or pain in eyes
- Correction may not last
- Permanent decrease or loss of vision that cannot be corrected with glasses or contact lenses
- Need for additional laser or surgery
Some factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Pre-existing eye disease, such as glaucoma, or abnormalities in the shape of the cornea, such as keratoconus
- Persistent eye infections, such as blepharitis
- Dry eyes
- Thin cornea
- Large pupil size
- Autoimmune disease, immunodeficiency, and other conditions, or use of medications that alter wound healing
- Diabetes
- Any other form of fluctuating vision
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor will likely do the following:
- Complete eye exam
- Review of medications
Leading up to your procedure:
- It is best to stop wearing your contact lenses at least 2-4 weeks before surgery. The length of time depends on the type of contact lenses and your doctor's preference.
- Arrange for a ride to and from the procedure.
- Do not wear lotion, cream, make-up, or perfume the day before or day of surgery.
- You may be asked to scrub your eyelashes and/or use eye drops before the surgery.
Talk to your doctor about your medications. You may be asked to stop taking some medications up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Blood thinners
- Antiplatelets
Drops are given to numb the surface of the eye. You may be given a sedative to help you relax during the procedure.
Description of Procedure
You will be positioned on your back in a reclining chair. The area surrounding your eye will be cleaned. Numbing drops will be placed in your eye. The eyelid will be held open with a special device. A ring will be placed on the eye and pressure is applied to create suction. A blade will then be attached to the suction ring. The doctor will use the blade to cut a flap in the cornea. The doctor will fold back the flap.
You will look into a light (not the laser). A laser will be directed to remove a specific amount of corneal tissue. The laser will make a ticking sound as it reshapes the cornea. At this point, some patients report a smell similar to burning hair. Once the laser is finished, the corneal flap will be gently placed back into position. Antibiotic drops will be put in the eye. A shield will be placed over the eye.
There are other ways to do laser vision correction surgery. One includes using a laser to make the flap in the cornea. The other includes removing the top layer of the cornea with a special device or chemical, then using the laser. Ask your doctor which procedure is best for you.
How Much Will It Hurt?
You will likely feel some discomfort when the suction ring is applied. Just after the procedure, expect a burning or itching sensation or the feeling that there is a foreign object in your eye. Your eye may tear and be red and bloodshot. You will most likely have a loss of vision at times during the procedure. This is normal.
Postoperative Care
You will wear a shield to protect your eye from injury or pressure, even while sleeping. When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Do not rub your eyes.
- Limit physical activity, especially contact sports for up to one month.

Vision may be hazy or cloudy; you may see starbursts or halos around lights. Vision changes and redness should gradually improve over several days. However, it may take up to six months for your vision to completely stabilize. Your doctor will schedule follow-up visits.
Additional surgery may be necessary to further correct or enhance vision. If more surgery is needed, wait until your eyesight has stabilized. It is usually considered stable when you have consistent measurements on at least two consecutive exams several months apart.
Call Your Doctor
Contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, bleeding, or discharge from the eye
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Vision worsens
- Any other problems or concerns
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

There are several ways to can chicken...precooked and boned before you can it and then chicken on the bone, either precooked or raw (the canning process cooks it) I prefer the chicken precooked and boned for several reasons. One, I don't want to be taking the meat off the bones when I'm ready to eat it. When I'm cooking, I want everything to be as simple as can be. Two, when I can the precooked chicken, you use the water that you cooked it in to pour over the meat in the jar. This will make a nice broth. (you can skim off some of the fat if you like) Also you can get more meat in the jar if it is off the bone. I find this is the most economical way of canning chicken.
Until I get a lawn of my own, I'll still be a curmudgeon-in-training, since I can't currently tell kids to get off my nonexistent lawn....
one other question for you is this....did the jars loose the liquid when they were in the canner, or when you were removing the jars from the canner. If it was the later, there is a simple solution for that....but let me know at which point they lost the liquid.
.Sometimes I have this happen when I can potatoes, and that's how I keep them moist. Otherwise, if I have a slightly dry potato in my jar, I remove it and give it to the chickens for a snack! hahahaha!
