Two Different Takes on Frugal Living
We've been reading about the miracle uses of baking soda. So, one day, we ran out of automatic dishwashing detergent. In a pinch, we decided to make some detergent with two tablespoons baking soda mixed with two tablespoons of Borax (we have a box in our laundry room just gathering dust). You cannot believe how beautiful our dishes came out! For pennies a wash! We are now converts and will not need to buy commercial dish detergent.
The cost: Since two tablespoons = one dry ounce, you can see how far this will go. A small 16 oz. box of baking soda costs under $1.00 and will last about 32 loads. A 76 oz. box of Borax ix about $5.00 and will last 152 loads of dishes. Assume you do one load a day, you will need 12 boxes of baking soda (or buy bigger versions, we just don't have that on hand here…) and two boxes of Borax.
Total for the year to wash dishes if you do a load a day: approximately $22.00.
Total for the year to buy commercial dish detergent: average $5 a large box, which lasts about a month (or less), costs approximately $60.00 a year. We based this on our frugal purchases of store brand detergent and Cascade. However, we know many people who use newfangled products such as cubes, gels, and tabs–all of which are more money and promise better results, but we bet the results are just as good as baking soda and Borax.
Again, here's the recipe:
2 tbs. baking soda
2 tbs. Borax
Put mixture into washer's detergent holder as you would normally with any detergent. (NOTE: Some people find that this is way too much detergent for their dishwasher's compartment. In that case, simply mix the solution up in a bowl/container and pour as much as fits. If you prefer, just mix bigger batches and keep in a glass jar or plastic container and scoop out with an old coffee scoop.)
Our dishes have never, ever looked cleaner–no scratches, no water spots, just crystal clear glasses, dishes, and silverware. Our dishwasher is cleaner inside, too. Typically, we don't love homemade products because they may not work better than store-bought solutions, but this is different.

all much too might take the profit from them.
I've always had much luck with vinegar mixed with water.
For those with hard water mix 1 cup borax, 1 cup baking soda, 1/8 cup kosher salt. Use 1 tbs in your machine with 1 tsp of LemiShine and vinegar as your rinse aid!
I have been doing another version for 2 mts and everything is cloudy and the silverware is dark I will now try this.
Thanks for sharing~~
I did this and it seemed to work well. The only thing was that it doesnt do good at dissolving food particles left behind.Other than that, I like it
Hi! I found your site through someone pinning my DIY t shirt dusting gloves / wipes, and I saw this tip for the DW – I do have hard deep well water but hate buying that expensive stuff, so I am giving this a try, with the white vinegar as a rinse. I will post the results soon. I'm see a lot of good things going on with white vinegar, baking soda, borax, and other "natural" less expensive solutions. Thanks so much for sharing you tip!
I swear you have the same contents in your dishwasher as I do.😉 I was skeptical, but gave it a try and it works great. Thanks for the recipe.
OK. We have another check in the "fail" column. We ran our dishwasher with 2 TBS each of Borax and Baking Soda, mixed, and White Vinbegar in the rinse compartment. Results: Awful chalky residue all over everything. Repeated the process without the vinegar—–results: Worse!
We are thinking that our lack of success may be due to our very hard country well water. I'm curious if others who are having problems also have hard water. Does everyone who gets sparkly dishes have soft water?
I have seen recipes that use washing soda rather than baking soda. Perhaps with your hard water, this would help.
I have used the baking soda/borax/vinegar rinse combination for the past two nights with great results.
I have two suggestions: 1 – maybe your water wasn't hot enough and 2. If the borax/soda combo sat for awhile and formed a "cake" by absorbing moisture it would be harder to break it up. Just a thought.
Neither one of those was a problem. And we tried it twice. Are any of you other folks here who are having the same poor results washing with hard water, as we are?
Yes, I finally filled a cup with white vinegar and ran with the dishes to get the white film off all the dishes. I used less of this mixture and I think it was okay.
As a commercial dish machine Tech, sounds as if there was too much product which does not allow a proper rinse. I'd use less and check to make sure that your machine has HOT water (run water in sink first to get up to max temp) and if still getting residue then take off covers inside to see if there is residue/food build-up blocking the drain. Often cakes soap and food is the culprit. never hurts to shop vac the line from where it connect to the disposal to ensure no food blockage. Hope that helps.
Thanks for great info i learned something new
With two children in college, I'm always looking for cost effective alternatives. With my VERY soft water, I have found that 1 tablespoon of Borax and 1 tablespoon of baking soda is perfect. I also add vinegar, instead of a commercial rinse agent, in the the rinse compartment. My dishes are sparkling! Thank you!
I'm going to try this! Hope it works! I make my own laundry soap so I always have these ingredients on hand thanks for the tips
lol, ooops, just put the whole 4 TBS in at once, dishes are washing now, lol
Pingback: discount coupons brisbane
Really amazing tutorial, pretty much thanks for sharing this.
Um, wow?! I just did this and my dishes have never looked so clean. You may want to edit your original post, as I made the same mistake as Anne did–(trying to put 2T of both Borax and baking soda into the soap compartment of my dishwasher.) Also…have you had any luck mixing up large batches of this? I can see my husband and older children refusing to pre-mix these ingredients each time.
OK, what am I doing wrong? I made the mixture of 2 tablespoons each of baking soda and borax. First, that amount won't fit in my dishwasher's soap holders, so I had to put in just 3 tablespoons and it barely fit. Then my dishes came out with a film on the glasses that makes them look terrible. Any advice from anyone?
amazing tutorial, thanks a lot!
nd go to work!!~~~This is an old tip and it makes your windows sparkle, alot better than Windex, etc. and you know how much that costs!!~~Hope this helps someone get cleaner windows without much effirt and for less money!!~~
Hmm it appears like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips and hints for first-time blog writers? I'd really appreciate it.

Sounds like a positively wonderful weekend!
This weekend has been filled with celebration! And we're just getting started!
Friday night Chris and I went out with a group of his grad school friends to celebrate his Comp Defense. He passed so we had lots to celebrate! Congrats Chris!
We took up two big tables at the Pump Station.
I got an Apple Ale–my favorite–to celebrate!
For dinner I wanted to get something I haven't tried before so I went with the Black Bean & Corn Veggie Burger.
I subbed roasted veggies for fries, and ordered with sans mayo, but topped with sautéed mushrooms + guacamole.
RANT: I know I shouldn't complain but the veggies were an extra dollar. And there were about 4 carrots and a piece of broccoli, and some onions in there. C'mon people. Seriously? I guess thats the price I have to pay for choosing to eat healthy instead of devouring a huge side of fries, which I probably would have enjoyed more. This is the first time I've been disappointed in the Pump Station.
The bun was HUGE! I was a bit disappointed with the burger, it looked like your standard frozen veggie burger. 🙁 I was expecting it to taste a little bit more home made. All I could taste was the toppings and the bun. Even though it wasn't what I was expecting, it still tasted okay.
Saturday morning Chris and I decided to go for a run outside. We ended up freezing our butts off and our leads felt like lead. 3.12 miles in the 30 degrees (feels like 24) is not much fun. 🙁 We ran it in about 30 minutes.
After our run I went home and worked on some Christmas gifts. I also tried making granola for the first time! I used my new turbanado sugar that I got last weekend at the Troy Co-Op. Turbinado sugar is like brown sugar but the crystals are bigger.
Pumpkin granola! I cannot find the recipe I used for this though.
It came out really well, and perfectly crunchy!
Last night Chris and I went to a Holiday Party with more of his classmates, which was lots of fun! They had lots of delicious (and veggie friendly) food! I didn't take out my camera but I had a little bit of:
- salad
- veggie friendly zitis
- vegetarian chilli
- garlic bread
- a bit of potato salad
- apple crisp
This morning I got up and headed to the gym at around 10:30. I wanted to get another run in since yesterday's failed miserably.
I ran 6.0 miles on the treadmill in 1 hour and 1 minute! I had originally planned to run 5.0, but I felt so good at miles 4-5 that I kept going. The first three miles were pretty tough though. I just had to stick with it!
I came home and refuled with some eggs. One egg + two egg whites + spinach and goat cheese with toast.
I also put some ketchup on the eggs, which I've never tried before. Why haven't I tried that? It was delicious. I think I have a thing for ketchup!
Now I'm just relaxing in front of my Christmas tree! My mom put it up yesterday. 🙂 Festive!
6 Comments on "Celebrations"
yumm i want to try that apple ale. love the tree!!! you'll never eat eggs without ketchup again, its the only way. great post =)
Congrats to Chris! I can't believe that the Pump Station charged an extra dollar for that. Whack.
Nice job on the six miles on the TM- that's intense!
For the longest time, I stayed away from ketchup on my eggs. But one day it slipped by my home fries and I scooped some up with my egg scramble. Mmm. The rest is history.
Great looking Xmas tree. I'm hoping to put mine up today or tomorrow.
I love ketchup on eggs!
Ketchup on eggs is my favorite!!! I can't believe you haven't tried it before?!?

Drawing on previous literature proposing that entrepreneurial orientation (EO) reflects a disposition toward, rather than actual involvement in, entrepreneurial activity, and on the resource-based view of the firm, we complement the literature concerning the EO–performance relationship with the introduction of exploratory innovation and exploitative innovation as mediating variables accounting for entrepreneurial behavior. Data from 228 adolescent companies indicate the existence of an EO–entrepreneurial behavior gap and support the predicted mediating effects. In this context, the constituent dimensions of EO differ in their effects on exploration and exploitation, and performance, calling for an exacting consideration of the interplay of orientation, activity, and performance.

Fair Haired Child is the ninth episode of the first season of Masters of Horror. It originally aired in North America on January 6, 2006. A 15-year-old outcast named Tara is kidnapped by a strange couple and locked in a basement with their son who has a dark secret.
Tara (Lindsay Pulsipher), though a pretty and talented teenage girl, is not liked at her school and has no friends. Upon returning home one day, she is kidnapped and drugged. She awakens and attempts to escape but the kidnapper (William Samples) throws her into the basement, where Tara finds a young boy (Jesse Haddock) hanging from a noose, close to death. She saves him, and the two form a bond. The boy, Johnny, is sweet and kind but cannot talk; he has to communicate by writing in dust. With Johnny's assistance, Tara uncovers cryptic warnings on the walls, such as "Beware the Fair-Haired Child!" The two discover a room with numerous backpacks and a bloody bathtub, showing that they are not the first victims. Johnny begins to breathe hard as a great gust of wind shakes everything. Tara attempts to comfort him by talking to him about a picture drawn in her book.
Johnny undergoes a transformation from a normal boy into the hideous demon dubbed the "Fair-Haired Child" (Walter Phelan). Frightened, Tara hides from the creature until it reverts into the boy. He reveals his shameful secret: the couple are his parents. Twelve years ago, Johnny died by drowning on his 15th birthday. Desperate over the loss of their son, Johnny's parent's made a deal with a demon, and performed a ritual that involves them providing a sacrifice of one child per year until the quota of twelve is reached. Tara is the last before Johnny can become human again.
Johnny begins to cry and pound the wall, writing that he does not want to hurt her, and to forgive him. She embraces him as he begins to change. In a horrifyingly graphic scene, the demon re-emerges and performs his final kill by disemboweling Tara. Soon afterward, Johnny's parents descend into the basement to find Tara's corpse covered old newspaper, with the words "I forgive you, Johnny," written on it in her blood. The couple then happily performs the final stage of the ritual, transforming him into the beautiful blond boy he was before his death.
Johnny later looks over Tara's drawing, while his parents play instruments. Speaking for the first time, he tells his parents about his jealousy of their talent. Smiling, he informs his mother that his talent is bargaining. It is then that the a strong wind travels through the house as his mother hysterically screams, asking Johnny what he did. He replied that it took them twelve kids to resurrect him. He narrowed it down to two, and they didn't have to be children. Johnny smiles sadistically as Tara appears as a female version of the demon, and gruesomely kills his parents.
The alive-and-well Tara is shown waking up, curiously observing a bandage on her arm, indicating Johnny injected her with something to make her temporarily forget what had happened. The two introduce themselves again as he takes her for a stroll. The camera pans to the graves of Johnny's parents in the garden.

America First: I cant even believe that Sanders did speak at the convention when the burner got burned. lol and all the Liberals wish the vp pick was Comrade Warren. Warrens Indian name means "Dances with Marxism" and that is why every last Liberal in this country spanks monkey to her. As comrade Sanders felt the burn by the DNC he needed to speak at the commie convention or he will be tossed in to the gulag. It has become obvious that the DNC has become just like the Communist Party back in the day in the Soviet Union. They are ruthless and they will step on and destroy anyone in their way. Oh yea and Liberals since you think Communism is a good idea after your Liberal professor told you Communism is better than Capitalism then you better think again. According to a 2011 Rasmussen poll, Communism is a killer. And yet all you Liberals still support the idea: According to a 2011 Rasmussen poll, 11% of Americans i.e. Liberals think that communism would better serve this country's needs than our current system. The 20th Century Death rate under communism was the leading ideological cause of death between 1900 and 2000. There was 94 million that perished in China, the Soviet Union and North Korea alone as the direct result of Communism. So Liberals if you want to be communists then I suggest that you go to N Korea where you belong because us Americans will be having none of that.

THE 2000 CAMPAIGN: THE CAMPAIGN MANAGER; Gore Campaign Chief Wears Many Other Hats
By DON VAN NATTA Jr. and LESLIE WAYNE
Published: April 8, 2000
WASHINGTON, April 7— Since he resigned from Congress in 1989 over a controversial junk bond investment, Tony Coelho has mixed business with politics. But a close look at his business interests suggests that Mr. Coelho, the chairman of the Gore campaign, is much more skillful at politics.
Before taking the reins of the Gore campaign last May and moving to Nashville, Mr. Coelho spent a decade on Wall Street and has been involved with 30 different businesses and charities. He has served on the boards of companies in the car loan, gambling, funeral and thoroughbred racing industries.
While his management of the Gore campaign has earned wide praise, Mr. Coelho's business career has met with frequent failure, with some ventures ending in litigation and attracting government scrutiny.
His latest foray in government, as an ambassador managing the American participation in the 1998 World Exposition in Portugal, is the subject of a criminal investigation into financing and cost overruns.
In the past, Mr. Coelho has often been involved in ventures where the lines between business and government were blurred beyond distinction.
Because he now sits on six corporate boards while serving as Vice President Al Gore's volunteer campaign chairman, questions have been raised about whether his continuing business relationships create the potential for conflicts of interest.
Some companies that Mr. Coelho was involved with, and some where he is still a director, are dependent on government decisions.
Other companies are on shaky financial ground or involved in an eclectic array of activities, like bringing water to the Egyptian desert and running one of Japan's largest banks.
The exposition is not the only Coelho-related venture to attract the attention of government investigators. Two companies for which he was a director, International Thoroughbred Breeders Inc. and AutoLend Group Inc., are being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission for activities that took place while he was a board member.
Mr. Coelho has been pressed by at least two corporations, including International Thoroughbred, to resign his board seats because of poor performance or corporate infighting.
Mr. Coelho refused repeated requests to be interviewed. His lawyer, Stanley M. Brand, said Mr. Coelho had not been involved in any corporate wrongdoing. Mr. Brand declined to comment on what he said were ''private business dealings'' with ''no bearing whatsoever'' on the Gore campaign.
In the inquiry into Expo 98, investigators for the State Department's inspector general are questioning whether Mr. Coelho, as the leader of the American exhibit, used government resources to enhance his own private business interests.
They are also investigating whether he used government workers to raise money to repay a $300,000 personal loan from a Portuguese bank that he had used to help pay for a memorial at the fair.
They could refer the matter to the Justice Department for prosecution. Mr. Brand said Mr. Coelho broke no laws during his tenure running Expo 98.
Mr. Brand complained repeatedly about the scrutiny directed at his client. ''I am not aware of any general chairman who has gone through what Tony has gone through,'' he said. ''His success becomes his undoing.''
Charles Lewis, the director of the Center for Public Integrity, a public watchdog group, said it was natural for Mr. Coelho to draw scrutiny because he wears so many different corporate and political hats while serving as Mr. Gore's top campaign aide.
''Conflict of interest is when you are wearing more than one hat simultaneously and Coelho wears multiple hats,'' said Mr. Lewis, whose group closely studied Mr. Coelho's role in Expo 98. ''He has a number of business interests and they are mingled at the highest levels of national politics.''
It is not unusual for presidential candidates to have part-time campaign advisers from the business and lobbying worlds. Since these are not government jobs, there are no rules over potential conflicts of interest.
Full-time aides like Mr. Coelho typically receive a salary and do not have ongoing outside business. Karl Rove sold an extremely profitable consulting business last spring before taking the helm of Gov. George W. Bush's campaign. Unlike Mr. Coelho, Mr. Rove receives a salary; he is paid $150,000 a year.
As a member of Congress, Mr. Coelho became the third-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives. He helped turn the Democratic Congressional Committee into a powerful fund-raising organization. But when he left Congress, after six terms, he had so little money -- and so many debts -- that he had just enough in the bank to make one mortgage payment, his friends said.
''If Tony wanted to make a lot of money, he could have opened a lobbying shop,'' said Tom Nides, a close friend and former aide of Mr. Coelho's. ''But he decided to do it the hard way -- leave town and do something else.''
Mr. Coelho began working at Wertheim Schroder & Company, a Wall Street firm that hired him in 1989 and where he used his golden Rolodex of political connections and his considerable personal charm to reverse the fortunes of a flagging money management business and turn it into a financial powerhouse.

Metabolic Syndrome Health Center
Metabolic Syndrome: The Silent Epidemic
A Growing Problem
A recent study in the Archives of Internal Medicine suggests that metabolic syndrome is on the rise, especially among adults in their mid-30s. Researchers found that the young adults with metabolic syndrome had gained fat around their midsections and were much less physically active in their 30s, compared to their teen years. The researchers also noted that more men were diagnosed with the condition than women in this age group.
According to the National Cholesterol Education Program, some 24% of young adults over 20 have metabolic syndrome. That number swells to 44% by age 50.
An Ounce of Prevention
To lower your odds of developing the risk factors of metabolic syndrome, make sure your eating plan is full of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy.
It makes perfect sense that the new dietary guidelines for Americans recommended three servings of whole grains each day. Studies have shown that whole grains can lower the risk of heart disease and certain cancers -- and now you can add metabolic syndrome to that list.
Eating whole grains can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome, according to a study published Diabetes Care. Whole-grain carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables tend to be absorbed slowly by the body and help normalize blood sugar.
And wine lovers can rejoice; a glass or two per day is good for your health. The new dietary guidelines condone it -- and so does a study suggesting that a glass or two of wine may actually lower a person's risk for developing metabolic syndrome.
Moderation is key, though. The health benefits become risks if you overindulge and drink more than one or two glasses of wine a day.
Stay Active
Many studies have documented the effectiveness of physical activity along with a healthy diet. One study in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that exercise and weight loss helped to reduce blood pressure and improve insulin sensitivity in people with metabolic syndrome.
Exercise helps burn fat (especially around the waist), increases "good" cholesterol, and lowers blood pressure, according to a study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
So add preventing metabolic syndrome to the long list of benefits that can result from a healthy diet and regular physical activity.

The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975
- Studio: Sundance Selects
- Release Date: Sep 9, 2011
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
It's an imperfect but ambitious film willing to confront an enormous, complex period in this country.
A tangy raw stew of history, even if it never begins to confront the contradictions that bedeviled black militancy.
Black nationalism lives and breathes in this remarkably fresh documentary - a standout in last spring's New Directors/New Films - assembled by Göran Hugo Olsson.
The pieces here are wonderful, even if the documentary fails to make any kind of overall analytical point.
It plays very much like it advertises itself: a mixtape – Fear of a Black Planet, then and now.
It may not add up to a narrative, but it's a fascinating compilation -- a mixtape you may want to hear more than once.
Sometimes the film, even if it's a "mixtape," bites off more than it can chew, delving into the Attica Prison uprising, heroin addiction and the Vietnam War. But all in all, this film will give you a new perspective on the past - and the present.
Illustrates how the rhetoric of civil rights changed after the breakthroughs of Martin Luther King. With the world's media finally paying attention, critical thinkers like Carmichael, Davis, and Malcolm X were able to push back against the fretful questions about violence, and redefine the story of blacks in America over the centuries as one defined by violence.
Black Power Mixtape's contemporary audio, though it tries hard to involve us, can't hold a candle to this kind of footage. But if having these current voices on board helped get the luminous glimpses of the past back on the screen, we owe them a vote of thanks.
The fact that the speakers' faces are never seen produces a feeling of estrangement that is crucial to the film's effectiveness. You become acutely aware of gaps and discontinuities: between slogans and realities, between political ideals and stubborn social problems, between then and now.
This is a film that should be seen by anyone who wants to learn where we've come from as a nation.
Like any mixtape, it offers some truly transcendent moments alongside a smattering of filler, and never quite assembles its pieces into a cohesive whole.
While it assumes a fair bit of knowledge of the social changes exploding in sixties America, there's a wealth of fascinating material and punchy insights into an earth shaking movement.
Lengthy clips of leaders including Angela Davis and Stokely Carmichael bring us back to emotional moments in this country's history.
Simply put, the documentary is full of cool talking heads pontificating rather than taking physical action.

Most importantly, it's just great to see newIt's fascinating to see such historic figures in the Struggle from the Swedish perspective. Most importantly, it's just great to see new footage of folks like Stokely Charmichael and Angela Davis - both of whom are so charismatic and inspirational. The film flags a bit toward the end as the focus shifts to the ravages of drug abuse and the infighting and assassinations within the Nation of Islam. For someone who hasn't been exposed to much modern African American history in school or elsewhere, this would be fairly informative, though a bit disjointed.… Full Review »

We applied for US and Canadian Utility Patents. Our US patent issued. After the US patent issued, during prosecution, the Canadian patent examiner sent back an office action and cited prior art that we did not cite in the US application. What do we do now.
Information that comes to your attention before the grant of your U.S. patent must be brought to the attention of the USPTO even if it is after the notice of allowance and payment of the issue fee. After grant there is no obligation to do anything with this new reference. However, if you feel it weakens the patent, you might request an ex parte reexamination. This will allow the new reference to be considered, and arguments and amendments to be made. You may end up with a narrowed but stronger patent.

Tummy Tuck in San Jose
Before & After Photos
Take a look at the satisfying results Dr. Vincent Lepore has achieved for his cosmetic surgery patients.
Many people have excess fat and skin that cannot be eliminated through diet and exercise. This is especially common for women who have had multiple pregnancies or people who have lost tissue elasticity through the aging process. With a tummy tuck, San Jose plastic surgeon Dr. Vincent Lepore can remove that unwanted fat and drooping skin and tighten abdominal wall muscles that have been stretched due to pregnancy or weight fluctuation.
Researching procedures online can be helpful in guiding your decisions about plastic surgery. However, the best way to decide what's right for you is to meet with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Lepore, who has been in practice since 1987. You can request a free cosmetic consultationrequest a free cosmetic consultation online or call his office at 408-356-4241 to discuss surgical options.
Tummy Tuck Before & After
This patient got a tummy tuck with liposuction after losing more than 60 pounds. View more patients in our photo gallery.
Understanding Tummy Tuck Surgery
No matter how hard you work to maintain a healthy lifestyle and fit appearance, you may not be able to tighten up your stomach area the way you'd like. Through pregnancy, aging, weight fluctuation, heredity, or other factors you can lose muscle tone, develop stubborn fat deposits and begin to notice loose and sagging skin. With an abdominoplasty, commonly referred to as a tummy tuck, San Jose women can improve these conditions.
Liposuction is another body contouring procedure that many people consider when they want to eliminate excess fat. While liposuction is highly effective in removing unwanted fat in common problem areas, it cannot address drooping or sagging excess skin, and it cannot retighten stretched muscles. Dr. Lepore regularly performs both tummy tucks and liposuction for his Los Gatos and San Jose patients. He can help you determine which would work better for you, or combine the procedures for more advanced body contouring.
Meet Vincent Lepore, M.D.
For more than two decades, Dr. Lepore has exceeded the expectations of plastic surgery patients from San Jose and beyond. Learn more about this board-certified, Stanford-trained surgeon and the results he can create for you.
What to Expect
Dr. Lepore creates a surgical plan based on the physical exam he performs during your consultation, your medical history, and your personal cosmetic goals. Abdominoplasty may be performed using a local anesthetic combined with sedation or using general anesthesia, depending on your specific needs.
At the outset of the procedure, Dr. Lepore makes a horizontal incision stretching between the hip bones just above the pubic area. For women who have had children, Dr. Lepore repairs abdominal muscles stretched and weakened by pregnancy and childbirth. Tummy tucks may also be combined with liposuction to remove excess fat from the abdominal area and to create smooth contours. Dr. Lepore then pulls the skin taut and removes the excess before suturing the incision.
A tummy tuck procedure may also involve Dr. Lepore making a second incision around the belly button to address the upper abdomen. Dr. Lepore then repositions the belly button for a cosmetically pleasing look. Some patients may be candidates for a mini tummy tuck, which is limited to the area below the navel. That is something you can discuss with Dr. Lepore during the consultation.
When you return home, you may have drainage tubes that help prevent the buildup of fluids at the incision locations. Dr. Lepore typically removes these tubes within a week of the operation. He asks patients to wear a specialized, tight-fitting garment to help in the recovery and healing process.
Combining Treatments With a Tummy Tuck
Women who choose abdominoplasty to address physical changes caused by pregnancy often combine the tummy tuck with other procedures as part of a Mommy Makeover. The most common choices include cosmetic breast surgeries such as a breast lift or breast augmentation, along with liposuction. Combining different procedures is safe in healthy patients, and effective, especially following significant weight loss or pregnancy.
Dr. Lepore thoroughly discusses all of these options during your consultation and carefully plans the surgery to incorporate the various procedures. Combining procedures doesn't necessarily result in a longer recovery period.
You can find common questions about abdominoplasty surgery on our Tummy Tuck FAQ page.
Your New Look
For a week or two after surgery, you will experience some swelling and may need to avoid positions that would put extra strain on your incisions. After the recovery period, you will be able to stand up straight and see your slim, firmer shape. To maintain the results of your abdominoplasty, it is important to continue to eat well and exercise regularly.

Moanino starts the mind games
Jose Moanino has started the mind games for the Inter ECL tie saying "I'd be surprised if Vidic didn't get at least two matches - which wouldn't even be much for a gesture like that, during a match seen by the whole world." He has also commented that he feels Rooney should have been suspended after the Aalborg match, saying "I don't like the fact that in football there are different standards. I was amazed that Rooney was not suspended," Obviously Moanino doesn't agree with the UEFA review panel. I suggest they charge him with contempt. I wonder if he will have the humility to admit there was nothing wrong with Scholes' disallowed 'goal' against Porto when he last played United in the ECL? Or would that be a blemish on his record of winning the ECL in the same season Porto are under investigation for having bribed officials to win their domestic league under Moanino? Does that come under the 'double standards' he doesn't like?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
ha i bet jigsaw loved the old keegan comment, i will love it if we beat united, and...........er, they didnt. the only thing jigsaw can beat is his sad little penis that matches his mind. funny thing is tho, he aid he will let us know when newcastle win something, do we live that long
A Yahoo! User Jan 5, 2009 07:45 Flag
The last time Jigsaw 's team won anything man had not yet stepped on the moon. Any clues ?
Well first off that whole bribe situation was nothing to do with Mourinho or the Porto team, they didnt even know.
Second, disallowed goals happen all the time in football, some right some wrong. He's right, Rooney should of been sent off, if the linesman didnt see it fair enough, but after viewing it again they could of (should of!) taken action. It wasnt just a fleeting gesture either, it was a full blown swipe.
Mourinho is great, he's gone tonnes of charisma and knows how to wind up Man United fans, so he's a winner in my book!
Like you say though, its all a bit of pre-match fun, isnt it?

A Yahoo! User Jan 5, 2009 10:50 Flag
Scott - I agree with you about Moanino's charisma (we miss it since he was wrongly and ungratefully frozen out of Chelsea); I agree with you that pre-match mind games are all part of the fun (Moanino and SAF are the best at it); I also agree that poor calls on off-side decisions are part of football. But, I don't agree that Scholes' 'goal' against Porto had anything to do with off-side. He was about 30-odd yards out with a host of defenders ahead of him. Even the ABU media on television and in the press were at a complete loss to explain why that 'goal' had been disallowed. It is right up there with the Bermuda triangle, the abomninable snowman and Quisling Kenyon's explanation on the soundness of Chelsea's Balance Sheet, as one of the great mysteries of our time
It wasn't a full blown swipe from Rooney. He accidently stood on the guy as he lost his balance. I think you're getting it mixed up with the Stoke game, which I agree, Wayne could easily and probably should of seen red.
I think these mind games being started by Mourinho are funny. It as all part of the game, something Fergie himself has mastered over the years. It just adds a bit of extra spice to the tie.
Oh and agreed, offside goals go for and against teams all the time. Its swings and roundabouts as the saying goes really. That one against Porto was pretty painful to take though, especially as I was cheering my nuts off behind the goal at the game until I realised it had been chalked off! Gutted!

I've been digging into the form shortcode options, and find very handy to be able to set the destination e-mail address in the template.
For a specific project, I need to set subject and message fields the same way (the idea is to send the post title and excerpt via e-mail), but I've found out that I can't do that without changing the plugin core code, which of course isn't the most recommended thing to do.
Would you mind adding this small functionality whenever you find the time?
Thanks in advance,

1999 Marcos Mantis
The Mantis Challenge was launched in 1998, with the aim of providing a one-make series to provide close racing for competitors keen to race GT cars more technically advanced than the already popular TVR Tuscans, but cheaper than the full house GT1 and GT2 cars of the Privilege GT Championship.
The first season was low key, with very few cars out at some rounds, but the racing was sometimes exciting and the opportunity to compete in the Privilege GT series (as a GT2) and the French GT series, where it won the GT3 class on an outing late in the season, has attracted a number of competitive runners for 1999, including the 1998 Caterham Champion and at least 1 1998 MGF frontrunner.
Initial reports suggest that there could be fields of 25 cars in the Dunlop Marcos Challenge in 1999.
Part way through 1999 and there is plenty of good news on the Mantis Challenge front. Exciting races, strengthening fields, and reliable cars have made the British series an increasingly strong series, but in Holland, the Dutch Mantis Challenge has started, with a 14 car grid.
Rob Knook, a champion in the Dutch LM500 series, won the race at the Trophy of the Dunes at Zandvoort, although he was followed closely across the line by Peter Van Soelen and Peter Van der Kolk. Once again the reliability of the cars was impressive with all 14 finishing. Next races up (in the form of a double header) for the Dutch series are at Spa on the 17th/18th July,
The Spa event also forms part of the newly announced 'Tri-Nations Challenge'. The second round of the Challenge (for cars from both the British and Dutch series) will be at Silverstone on August 22nd, where up to 35 cars are likely to appear.
The final leg will be back at Zandvoort, once again a double header, on 19th and 20th September. Although the races will form part of the national series, the Challenge will be scored solely on the results of these events, encouraging exciting races and packed fields.

All Rise...
Judge Mac McEntire is dreaming about visiting you...right now!
Editor's Note
Our reviews of Bad Dreams (published May 29th, 2006), Bad Dreams / Visiting Hours (Blu-ray) (published February 21st, 2014), and Visiting Hours (published June 1st, 2006) are also available.
The Charge
It's a scream!
Opening Statement
Feeling ill? Not getting enough horror in your diet? If so, Shout! Factory has prescribed a pair of hospital/medical-themed thrillers for you. Take these two fright flicks and call me in the morning.
Facts of the Case
When she was a child, Cynthia (Jennifer Rubin, Screamers) was part of a strange cult that made a suicide pact, and only she survived. Years later, she wakes from a coma, and is put in a psychiatric facility. As her fellow patients start dying in mysterious ways, Cynthia is haunted by visions of the cult's sinister leader, Harris (Richard Lynch, Deathsport). Has Harris's spirit returned to torment her from beyond the grave, or are these merely Bad Dreams?
A TV journalist (Lee Grant, Shampoo) is attacked by a murderous psycho (Michael Ironside, Highlander 2). She survives, but her injuries land her in the hospital. Now, the would-be killer sneaks into the hospital, hoping to finish the job, long after Visiting Hours.
The Evidence
For those who don't hang out there often, hospitals can be alien environments. There are mazes of hallways and corridors, equipment and charts beyond our understanding, more rules and regulations than we can keep track of, and an emphasis on sterility mixed with gross-out goings-on we'd rather not know about. Naturally, Hollywood has done much to play on people's fears of hospitals over the years, including but hardly limited to the duo of movies on this two-disc set.
I'm a huge fan of 1980s horror, but somehow Bad Dreams wasn't on my radar before now. That's too bad, because it's a surprisingly great horror movie. Yes, it has its share of '80s horror stapes, such as a group of victims who exist only to get picked off one by one by a killer covered with burn scars, but there's a lot more going on here. Gorehounds will enjoy the practical and generously slimy effects on display, but mostly, this is psychological horror. The movie does a fine job of keeping you guessing until the end whether all this craziness is because of a supernatural baddie, or if it's all in our heroine's head.
The filmmakers layer some satire into their horror, by drawing parallels between the freaky cult members and the mental health profession. Also, there are some clever, Tarantino-esque uses of music, notably Jimi Hendrix's "The Time Has Come Today" played for suspenseful purposes. It's really thanks to the acting, though, that Bad Dreams works as well as it does. Some might argue that Rubin is flat or dull as Cynthia, but I say she deserves kudos for attempting some subtlety in her performance, especially when her fellow asylum patients quirk it up big time. Richard Lynch offers an excellent menacing stare as the villain, Andrew Fleming (Re-Animator) is earnest as a do-gooder doctor, and the always-reliable Harris Yulin (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) is his usual quality self as a gruff hospital administrator.
Visiting Hours doesn't fare as well. If the movie is famous for anything, it's for its legendary poster, featuring the hospital windows lit up like a cackling skull and an ambulance driving across the bottom of the frame, with orange flames in its wake. Nothing like that happens in the movie. If it's famous for anything else, it's because William Shatner (Airplane II) is in it. Shatner plays our heroine's supportive boss, and has little else to do. It's great fun hearing him make with the R-rated swearing, but beyond that, there's not much Shat-action for Shat-fans to Shat-enjoy.
The biggest problem with Visiting Hours is that it can't decide who the main character is. You'd think it would be Lee Grant's character, because she's the one targeted by the evil killer, but a huge amount of time is spent with a nurse (Linda Purl, Happy Days), so much so that, with a little script-tweaking, the whole movie could have centered on her. Michael Ironside also has the evil glare down pat, but scenes that are supposed to show us what's going on inside his head go on for far too long, and take us away from whichever character is supposed to be the main character.
Both movies look great despite their age and relative obscurity, with not a scratch, fleck, or hint of grain to be seen. The sound is good but not explosive, focused mostly on the front speakers. Bad Dreams comes with director and cast interviews, a special effects featurette, and an alternate ending. All get for Visiting Hours is the trailer, radio spots and TV spots.
The Rebuttal Witnesses
So hospitals are practically deserted at night, with no one around, allowing characters to sneak around and stir up all kinds of trouble? Guess we'll have to suspend our collective disbelief on that one.
Closing Statement
Bad Dreams was a pleasant surprise, a straightforward yet fun horror movie. Visiting Hours gets a diagnosis of, "OK, but could have been better."
The Verdict
Mental health really will drive you mad. Not guilty.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Bad Dreams / Visiting Hours a fair trial? yes / no

The NFL has told its teams to adhere to rules against tampering in the three-day window for negotiating with free agents that opened Saturday.
Teams were allowed to contact representatives of free agents from other teams within the window, but the players can't visit any facilities or even talk to those clubs. The league has warned the teams against entering into any agreements with those players before free agency officially kicks off at 4 p.m. Tuesday.
Traditionally, contracts with free agents have been announced almost as soon as the NFL's business year begins, clearly indicating agreements had been reached before the free agency period began. The league hopes the negotiating window will limit any hints of tampering.

Comments about Central Pneumatic 2 in. x 1/2 in. Crown 15-1/2 Gauge Flooring Staples 500 Pc:
Used these for three different projects. First, installed red oak hardwood flooring in a 300 sf room with no jamming and minimal/no tongue damage. I did have a few staples not make it all the way, with about 1/2 " of staple between the staple crown and wood tongue, but I believe it was from low air pressure on my compressor. It would usually kick on after such an occurrence, to the point where I actually looked at my air pressure gauge before striking my floor nailer if I felt the pressure may be low. Second project was 125 sf of upstairs hallway in red oak hardwood with no issues. Third project was replacing window sill nosing, again with no problems. They are priced right and got my jobs done. The fact that they are hard to find in stock in my local HFT speaks for itself. I still have a box in the garage for my next hardwood project.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Professional
Used these staples to lay 3/4 oak flooring they there were no jams but many didn't go through the tongue or crushed the tongue used these on the second day of the project after running out of a different staples the day before. Had no issues the first day and nothing but problems the second day. I oil my nailer and keep my PSI at 90.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
not happy with
By pedz
from wny
I install hardwood for my profession. Bought these because I was low on staples. Normally use a different brand of 15-1/2 gauge staples. My flooring stapler is HFT brand which does work very well. However these are not 15-1/2 gauge like the box states. They are 15 gauge, just like the box of 2000. For me, these did not work well at all in my HFT stapler. In order to drive the staple through the tounge of the oak floor, I had to increase the pressure of my compressor greatly. This caused damage and splitting. When I decreased the pressure, these staples would curl up on themselves and not drive through the wood. Had no issue with the lower pressure using other brand I normally use. I am happy with the HFT 15-1/2 gauge flooring stapler that I use but these staples are the wrong gauge. Will not buy these again.
