Nervous for my soon to be 7yr olds party.
Posted 10:18 PM on Sat-1-Sep-2012
Well, my daughter is turning 7 in October and for some reason I'm really nervous...We have been here in NZ for almost a year, and she has settled in so well Im so proud of her, she has made a few friends which is awesome, but she wants a party for her birthday so we are having a pizza party at a local restaurant and she can invite up to 20 of her friends, this is where the problem lies im really nervous that not many will want to come, she still is the new girl and a lot of the mums and dads and children know each other really well and over the last few weeks there has been lots of parties and she hasn't been invited, and i understand why, shes new, there are a limited amount of children at parties etc..but i worry she doesn't understand, school friends is all she has here in NZ, all her cousins and our friends with children are still in the uk, and if i was there now i know it would be a full house.I know this sounds silly, but its been on my mind for a while, my husband rightly said its not the amount of friends but the quality, and my kiwi mum friend laughed and said people don't say no to have 2 hrs child free lol...but it still is in the back of my mind, i think its a more of a guilt thing as we took her from her friends and family and she was the popular one at school, and at the moment she has us and not many others she seems to like the library instead of getting out and making friends, as long as shes happy im happy but i just can help to wonder if she really is happy.Well it feels good just to write that down...

I can understand what you're saying. My two are either side of Christmas and I fret a little, particularly with The Legend's birthday because he's smack bang between Christmas & New Year - that special time families spend with their own folks. A hard time to get any friends around because everyone is either tied up with visitors or away visiting themselves.
On his 5th birthday, only one of his little boy mates was in town, and one little girl mate, and his sister of course. Thankfully a friend was visiting from out of town with 3 girls, and so that bumped the numbers substantially! He looks at his birthday photos from time to time though and snubs his nose at a picnic blanket shot with 2 boys and 5 girls sitting there eating their party food.
I always wish our two had cousins that could attend these things, but even if that happens one day, they'll be so much younger than our kids, and they'll probably much rather just have themselves.

Maybe she hasn't been invited to many parties because parents don't think about her since she's new. By inviting others to her party it may set her up to be invited to other parties. I agree that most parents would willingly send their children away to parties just to have a break for a couple of hours and I like Julie's idea of the txt reminder!
Have fun and enjoy the party.

I can understand your nervousness. We emigrated her from the UK 7 years ago and I STILL worry that no one will want to come to my kids' birthday parties. Except, your kiwi mum is right - there's not many who will turn down an invitation to a fun party, especially when the parent gets a bit of child-free time! My kids have not been invited to many parties lately, but most of their invitees usually make it to their parties. A pizza party sounds like fun - just go with the flow, get those invites out and maybe pop in a RSVP card that parents can return where they can put down a mobile number. That way you will be able to send a reminder text a day or two before the party to say how much your daughter is looking forward to sharing her birthday with them - a subtle way to remind them to turn up!

I'm afraid that maven docs haven't been updated for quite a long time in Geronimo. I'll look into this problem in the following days. At the meantime, would you please raise a jira for the problem?

text: Hello everyone and welcome to my RTM thread! I've been playing a lot UU, and i'm loving the state it is now, nothing is particularly broken so its a fun tier to play. I made this team quite long ago, and it has been working awesomely, reaching to a ladder ranking past 1850(63-11) which is considered to be decent i guess.This is a balanced team with 3 bulky pokes and other 3 offensive pokes. Well without further ago, here is the team! In Depth: Suicune@leftovers Trait: pressure Evs: 252HP/252Def/4Spcatk Bold nature(+Def, -Atk) -Scald -Calm Mind -Rest -Sleep talk The underrated star of the team: Crocune. This thing is extremely bulky on the defensive side; laughs at most of non-banded physical attackers. Suicune along with hitmontop handle most of physical attackers. Its pretty straightfoward; once enemy's zapdos/raikou/shaymin is eliminated, set up on any poke who doesn't 2HKOes you and you're pretty much done. Scald helps burning strong pokes like moxie heracross, mienshao, etc. Zapdos@Choice Specs Trait: Pressure Evs: 4HP/252Spcatk/252Spd Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk) -Thunderbolt -Heat Wave -HP ice -Volt Switch Specsdos its a powerful force in UU, being able to hit hard, having nice coverage and being able to scout. Thunderbolt is for STAB, Heat wave for bronzong mainly, and HP ice for grass types and Rhypherior. I could run Hp grass instead of ice to nail swaperts/OHKO rhyperiors but the coverage that HP ices its pretty good. Flygon cant switch in for free with it. Yanmgea@Life Orb Trait:Speed Boost Evs: 4Hp/252Spcatk/252Spd Modest nature(+Spcatk, -Atk) -Bug Buzz -Air Slash -Giga Drain -Protect Yanmega is a monster, he is the king of late game sweeping (fuck off raikou), He has lot of power and after 2 turns its pretty much the fastest thing in the tier. Bug Buzz works as a powerful STAB move, Air Slash its to OHKO heracross and most fighting type pokes (Yanmega can switch into most fighting pokes surprisingly easy due to the 4x resist.) And Giga Drain hurts blastoise and swampert, and also recovers part of the life lost that to life orb gives. Hitmontop@Leftovers Trait: Intimidate EVs: 252HP/4 Atk/252Def Impish Nature (+Def, -Spcatk) -Close Combat -Rapid Spin -Foresight -Toxic Hitmontop its an extremely necessary member for my team: it helps me take of stealth rocks 100% of the time and its the poke that can hurt snorlax the most. Close Combat its the mandatory STAB move, Toxic nails those walls who think they can come in for free, Rapid spin spins away hazards who my team really hate, and foresight although very specific, its when the opponent has 1 ghost poke, so when it switches in I use foresight and i have the spin assured. Also hitmontop its really bulky, helps against most phisical attackers due to intimidate and having EVs on Hp and Defense. Victini@Expert Belt Trait: Victory Star Evs: 252 Atk/4Spcatk/252 Spd Naive nature (+Spd, -Spcdef) -V-create -Bolt Strike -Grass Knot -HP ice Mixtini its a very fun pokemon to use; its made to lure pokes like swampert and rhypherior and KOing them with a combination of V-create and grass knot (victini outspeeds both pokes mentioned even at -1spd, and the damage made form V-create lets them fie to Grass knot) The idea its to initially play it as it was banded, so it can later catch pokes by surprise. V-create its a hard hitting STAB move, Bolk Strike catches water types (mostly suicune), Grass Knot gets Swapert and Rhyperior and HP its almost never used, only when predicting a Flygon switch in (who is pretty rare now days) Snorlax@Leftovers Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 80 HP/252Atk/176Spcdef Adamant nature (+Atk, - Spcatk) -Body Slam -Earthquake -Pursuit -Fire Punch Snorlax its a pokemon that its nowdays really needed in almost every UU team. It helps against pretty much every special attacker i the tier, and in this team needed a chandelure counter, so i had to choose snorlax. His ability to pursuit chandelure and victini its priceless. Body Slam its a STAB move that can help by paralyzing stuff. Pursuit was already mentioned, Fire Punch its mostly for bronzong, and Earthquake hits rock/steel types and Raikou. Conclusion: I think this team coers most of the tier, but a pokemon that can cause trouble is Snorlax, who walls most of my special attackers, and can catch hitmontop if its already weakned. I Hope you liked my team, if you have any suggestions please go ahead and comment them :happybrain:

It was riding alittle rough, mechanic said to remove air filter, that did help. I just don't want to make matters worse, until I purchase part needed.
My car needs a Mass Airflow Sensor. Can I, or should I, drive it locally ?? on 1998 Nissan Altima

We certify shops based on expertise, quality work, and verified customer reviews
1 answer 1 comment
Depending on how the sensor is reading wrong I don't recommend driving it much. There is a possibility of the vehicle causing damage to the catalytic convertors due to it not having the proper fuel / air mix. To replace the convertors will be even more expense for they are not cheep.
Well don't need anymore expenses. Thank You

ISIS Claims Responsibility for Nice, France Islamist Terror Attack … Its Our 'soldier' Behind Nice Truck Attack
An Islamic State-run media outlet says the man who barreled his truck into a crowd in the French coastal city of Nice is a "soldier" of the group.
The Aamaq news agency on Saturday cited a "security source" as saying the attacker "carried out the operation in response to calls to target the citizens of coalition countries fighting the Islamic State."
The statement did not name the attacker, and the language implied that he may have acted independently. There is no evidence IS was involved in planning the July 14 attack.
The attack killed 84 people and wounded 200. The driver was identified as Mohamed Bouhlel, a Tunisian deliveryman known to authorities as a petty criminal.

80+ Dead in Truck Islamic Terror Attack on Bastille Day in Nice, France (Update: Terrorist Killed)
UNREAL … It has happened again in France … Radical Islamic terrorism. A truck plowed into pedestrians during Bastille Day celebrations in Nice, France Thursday leaving at least 80 people dead. France's president called this an "obviously a terrorist attack." The WAPO is reporting that at least 84 people are dead as a driver also opened fire on revelers before being shot dead by police.
A truck plowed into pedestrians during Bastille Day celebrations in the popular French seaside city of Nice Thursday, leaving at least 80 people dead in what the nation's president called "obviously a terrorist attack."
The deadly toll, which included several children, came after the truck slammed into revelers gathered on a promenade to watch fireworks, French President Francois Hollande said in an address Friday morning.
"Such a monstrosity," Hollande said. He pledged to step up efforts to fight terror in Iraq and Syria, and said he will seek to extend a state of emergency by three months.
"France is deeply saddened, but it is also very strong," Hollande said. "I can assure you we will always be stronger than the fanatics who are trying to attack us."
The driver was fatally shot by police, Hollande said. It is unknown if there were accomplices, Hollande said. French media, citing a police source, reported that ID papers belonging to a French-Tunisian were found in the truck. A source told NBC News the driver is believed to have been a French national of Tunisian descent.
UPDATE I: France mourns after 84 killed in Bastille Day atrocity.

41 Dead and 239 Injured in Co-ordinated Terrorist Suicide Attack at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport (VIDEO)
Three explosions rocked Istanbul's Ataturk airport in a co-ordinated suicide attack as innocent people ran for their lives. In the end there are 41 dead, to date, and nearly 240 injured following this radical Islamic terror attack. However, it is expected that the death toll could rise to 50. Three suicide bombers drove to the airport in a taxi and starting shooting before they blew themselves up. Although they have not officially claimed responsibility for the terror attack, ISIS is suspected.
Witnesses have described the terrifying moment three suicide bombers launched a co-ordinated attack on Istanbul airport that has left at least 41 dead saying there was blood and body parts everywhere.
Shocking footage has shown an explosion at the door to the arrivals hall by a suicide bomber before another two attackers snuck into the building and detonated their devices.
Twenty-three of the victims were Turkish citizens and 13 foreign nationals were also among the casualties, an official has said. A total of 41 people have already been confirmed dead, but Turkish officials said that number is expected to rise to 50.
This morning the airport has re-opened while investigators piece together what happened, just hours after the attacks, which also left 239 people injured.
One of the passengers who was traveling through Ataturk airport at the time of the blasts was Laurence Cameron, a British cameraman who was traveling from Latvia to Izmir, on the Turkish coast.

UPDATE I: Airports in the U.S. and around the world increased security in the wake of Tuesday night's suicide bombing attack at Istanbul airport.
Airports in the U.S. and around the world increased security in the wake of Tuesday night's suicide bombing attack at Istanbul airport, in which the Islamic State terror group is suspected of killing at least 41 and injuring hundreds more.
The body count was expected to climb in the wake of the attack at one of the world's busiest airports after three suicide bombers opened fire with AK-47s before blowing themselves up as police engaged them. As if to underscore Turkey's determination to carry on in the face of a growing threat, the airport reopened Wednesday, just hours after the dead and some 239 wounded were carried away and glass and debris cleared.
"The findings of our security forces point at the Daesh organization as the perpetrators of this terror attack," Turkish Prime Miniser Binali Yildirim told reporters at the airport, using the Arabic name for ISIS. "Even though the indications suggest Daesh, our investigations are continuing."

Attorney General Loretta Lynch Says: Our Most Effective Response to Terror is Compassion, Unity and Love (VIDEO)
Yesterday, Attorney General Loretta Lynch spoke in Orlando, Florida and stated, our most effective response to terror and hatred is compassion, it's unity, and it's love." ARE YOU FRIGGING KIDDING ME!!! Let's understand this, the United States most effective response to terror is compassion, its unity and its love? WTF is this woman talking about? This is the liberal, political correctness agenda that is going to get us all killed. Liberalism truly is a disease. As Legal Insurrection opined, "It should come as a surprise to no one that under Obama, the nation's top law enforcement officer sounds more like a high school guidance counselor than a prosecutor." It is exactly this type of thinking and dealing with terrorism, or the lack thereof, that is responsible for 49 individuals being slaughtered in an Orlando nightclub. How is it that the Obama administration uses more harsh words and rhetoric to describe Republicans and Conservatives than they do terrorists? Thus lies the problem. The barbarians are at the gates and according to the Obama administration, all ya need is love.
We have an administration that has their heads up their collectives asses so far due to an ideology that they are putting America and Americans at risk. I would ask, who is the JV? It would seem it is the current Obama administration. Democrats need to be thrown out of office before we are all killed by terrorists.
Lynch said the Department of Justice stood in solidarity with the LGBT community "in the light" following a Muslim terrorist's massacre of 49 people at a gay nightclub last week.
"We stand with you to say that the good in this world far outweighs the evil, that our common humanity transcends our differences, and that our most effective response to terror and to hatred is compassion, it's unity, and it's love," Lynch said. "We stand with you today as we grieve together, and long after the cameras are gone, we will continue to stand with you as we grow together in commitment, in solidarity, and in equality."
Lynch has been in the news for defending the administration's decision to redact transcripts between law enforcement and the terrorist, Omar Mateen, during his attack.
Lotus Gunworks Gun Store Owner: We Called FBI Before Orlando Shooting Where 49 Were Killed
Not only was the terrorist gunman Omar Mateen investigated twice by the FBI for potential terrorist behavior in the past, but prior to the Orlando night club shooting where 49 people were slaughtered a gun store owner called the FBI regarding Mateen. The co-owner of a Florida gun store, Lotus Gunworks, says his employees contacted law enforcement before the Orlando shooting after gunman Omar Mateen attempted to purchase body armor and ammunition. We are told as citizens to be aware and report things that are unusual.
Maybe, just maybe Barack Obama and Democrats, who would use a tragedy that was a result of radical-Islamic terrorism, for their own liberal anti-gun agenda, maybe this more about a government agency that seems to have restrictive rules in doing their job. How is it that Mateen, like the Boston Marathon terrorist brothers slipped through the cracks? Every indication would point to the fact that they were vulnerable to be swayed to terrorism. Some how the FBI thought differently. A note to Barack Obama, former co-workers stated that Mateen was a ticking time bomb and some how the FBI said no. So if you really stand in solidarity with law-abiding Americans and not just pandering for your anti-Second Amendment agenda, you will have to admit, the government got it wrong and We the People had it right. It was not a gun that killed 49 innocent people at a gay night club in Orlando, Florida, it was your inability to define the enemy and deal with terrorism. So who is the JV now Mr. President?
The co-owner of a Florida gun store says his employees contacted law enforcement before the Orlando shooting after gunman Omar Mateen attempted to purchase body armor and ammunition.
Robbie Abell, co-owner of Lotus Gunworks, said Thursday his workers had a gut feeling about Mateen when he came to the store four or five weeks ago.
Mateen asked for level 3 body armor, according to Abell, but was told the store didn't carry it. He then made a phone call and spoke in Arabic before asking for bulk ammunition, but employees did not sell it to him.
Abell told reporters "we contacted FBI direct" after Mateen left the store but he did not elaborate on how investigators responded. He believed his employees did what they should have done, Abell said.
Law enforcement officials have told CBS News at this point, they have not found any evidence that the gun shop contacted police about Mateen's alleged suspicious behavior.
So before you decide to take people's guns away, maybe you might want to adequately have the FBI investigate those that fit all the descriptions of a terrorist. Do I dare say it, how about the FBI profile Muslim extremists?

Papers, Please nation Arstotzka modded into Civilization 5
Papers, Please is set in the great nation of Arstotzka, and it appears the country's influence is spreading. The fictional setting is now a playable nation in Civilization 5, thanks to a new mod.
Modder Snakeeater337 pushed out the Arstotzka mod on Steam Workshop, and it adds all new units and structures, along with an orchestral take on the Papers, Please soundtrack.
In tribute to Lucas Pope's game, players can build border checkpoints that serve as police stations, and there's even a Glory To Arstotzka trait that boosts citizen production and worker tallies. However, it dents your nation's food and happiness, much like in the original game.
The mod's still being developed but is playable now. Hit Steam Workshop to see how it's going.
