Health Coaching

Whether you have a single food allergy or multiple, you probably have been to allergists, general practitioners, gastrointestinal (GI) physicians and the list of traditional doctors can be endless. Well, if you want to go holistic then, the individuals to see are chiropractors, acupuncturists, herbalists, naturopathic doctors or even a health coach.
Now, a health coach has studied nutrition, diet and usually health science. They can assist you in building your very own personal food pyramid by simply having a one-on-one consultation. With this particular type of knowledge, it can benefit any client who needs assistance with celiac disease, gluten intolerance, one of the top eight food allergens, corn allergy Candida intolerance and much more.
Some individuals feel completely lost when they are very first diagnosed with a food allergy, but there is much more help today then, there was even a decade ago. By looking into health coaching, changing your lifestyle and educating yourself with some of your very own research, you'll find that you're on the road to recovery.
The Gluten Free Give Back: Food Banks
- By Amy Leger
- Published 05/4/2011
We've all heard of Oprah's Big Give show from a few years ago. I am suggesting during this Celiac Disease Awareness Month to do a "Gluten Free Give Back", as we take time to give back to this disease that has changed our lives so significantly.
During this month I plan to do occasional postings on how we can give back to the gluten free community. This post is looking at food banks.
We all are likely VERY possessive of our gluten free food– it's so expensive why would we just GIVE it to someone? I'll be honest, that is one of my initial reactions, but it turns out in this bad economy there is a need for gluten-free food at your local food bank.
Needing Gluten Free Food at the Food Bank
Last week I set out to learn more about the need in my own community in Minnesota. I talked with Lisa Aune of Second Harvest Heartland and she said,
"We do occasionally receive requests from some of our food shelf partners about the availability of gluten free food for clients of theirs." Can you imagine being caught in a place where you need to use the food shelf and you can't even find food options that you can eat?
The gluten-free need has been noticed elsewhere too. In Massachusetts Pierce's Pantry is a food shelf specifically for gluten free needs. You can find out how to donate or receive food at this helpful website.
Back in 2009 in Loveland, Colorado, they opened the country's first gluten free food bank at the House of Neighborly Services. Organizer Dee Valdez of GlutenFreeDee.com told Tricia Thompson of GlutenFreeDietitian.com what prompted her to take action.
"I remember talking to a mother who had a sick 7 year old who had Celiac Disease. The exasperated mom said she had to choose between feeding her whole family or just feeding her sick daughter the very expensive gluten free food she could find. The distraught mother said, referring to her celiac daughter, "She's just going to have to live with diarrhea." — Dee Valdez, Gluten Free Food Bank Organizer and Gluten Free Advocate. Interview on www.glutenfreedietitian.com
That really is a heartbreaking story, but it lead to fabulous work by Valdez. She also played a role in the new Gluten Free Food Pantry for low-income celiacs in Pittsburgh. The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness profiled the food bank opening on its website recently. It just opened this spring.
How Can You Get Active?
So what if there is nothing like any of the aforementioned food banks in your area? Teri Gruss had some ideas in her about.com article. She recommends talking to your local food shelf and asking them to put a call out for gluten-free donations. But you could also organize a food drive in your community or with your support group.
Back in Minnesota with my contact at Second Harvest Heartland, she supported the idea of donating gluten-free food,
"…I would suggest that you ask your readers to make those donations to their local food shelf. That way they are keeping the donations in their own community, and I'm sure the food shelves would be thrilled to get it." Lisa Aune of Second Harvest Heartland
Nadine Grzeskowiak, RN CEN of GlutenFreeRN.com had a great suggestion, to donate gluten free food to the Stamp Out Hunger food drive that happens on May 14th. She says, "…put non-perishable GLUTEN FREE food in a bag in your mailbox and your local mail carrier will pick it up and take it to the local food banks."
I will be donating gluten free food to my area food bank soon and I will let you know how it goes!

Anquish Over Gluten Free Easter
- By Deana Huneke
- Published 04/25/2011
Growing up, the Easter Bunny never brought a lot of candy he always seemed to bring the one thing we were "dying" to have, so when it came time for the Easter Bunny to start visiting my little girl, it only seemed right to have a little candy and toys to make up for the lack of candy. Kaia has been dairy free since she was 6 months old so Easter has always been a little bittersweet for her (me really). I have never found (at least one I can afford) a Kaia friendly chocolate Easter Bunny.
Kaia's Easter Basket has always consisted of little toys, coloring books, latex free markers and crayons (Crayola is cross contaminated), socks, bubbles, summer play toys and whatever Kaia just couldn't live without that year.
Fast forward to Easter 2011. This year I had to read for that one extra ingredient—wheat/gluten. As I started to head to my tried and true candies for her, they were quickly slipping away. Twizzler—the second ingredient is wheat flour!! Argh! Nope that jelly bean has gluten, that one two, oh that chocolate is gluten free, but no it has dairy, this went on and on. The more aggravated I got, it seemed the less candy she could have. It seemed all I could find that was Kaia friendly was dum dum suckers, Double Bubble, and Swedish Fish and Eggs. I had my old standby her Enjoy Life Candy bars, but I wanted something special.
The more I got read ingredients the madder I got, then it hit me---Kaia doesn't miss what she has never had. The worst part of going gluten free was taking pop tarts away and she handled that like a trooper. I was getting upset, not because Kaia wouldn't have an Easter Basket, I was getting upset because I was again hit in the face that my daughter is different, however she rarely notices she is different.
A couple minutes of self pity and I moved forward. Kaia had the Easter basket of her dreams with everything she wanted—and in the end I had a huge smile on my face—all because my beautiful little girl was happy--really happy.

Meat Glue Secret - Why Celiacs Need to Beware of this Possibly Non-Gluten-free Ingredient
- By Sarah Curcio
- Published 04/12/2011
There was a post on Facebook, in the Celiac Global Guide, about something called meat glue. It told celiacs to beware if you are eating meat because you are most likely digesting transglutaminase (aka meat glue.) It might be one way that harmful ingredients are getting into your system and why you may not be recovering, even if you're being really careful about gluten.
Unfortunately, the meat industry is protected. They do not need to list this as an ingredient. This enzyme has been approved for use in the United States, Japan and most European countries. This white powder called meat glue makes scraps of beef, lamb, chicken and even fish paste together so closely, that it appears to be a solid piece of meat.
Now, everyone believes if you eat gluten free and have fresh meats, fish, fruits and vegetables you will become healthier. Well, this new secret could be the exact reason why celiacs are not getting better. In fact, this may be a cause for celiacs developing colon cancer and other auto-immune diseases.
Going vegetarian or vegan, if possible, might be a safer bet. If you continue to eat meat try to go organic, antibiotic and hormone free. Plus, consider trying chop meat because there is nothing to glue there.
So, for more detailed information, check out this exclusive for yourself:

CA State Senate Introduces Resolution to Declare May 2011 as Celiac Disease Awareness Month in California
- By Scott Adams
- Published 02/21/2011
Celiac disease is the #1 genetic autoimmune disease in the United States as well as the most common in the world. It is estimated that 3 million Americans are affected by celiac disease, yet 97% of them don't even know it....yet. The average delay in diagnosis is 9 years.
If left undiagnosed, related autoimmune diseases include Type 1 Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoporosis, Thyroid Disease and certain types of cancers.
- There is no cure. Celiac disease is the only disease completely controlled by diet. The "cure" requires a life-time commitment to a strict Gluten-Free diet. Ingestion of even a crumb of wheat, rye and/or barley can cause a severe reaction.
- Symptoms may include: diarrhea, weight loss/gain, migraine headaches, anemia and infertility.
- Research shows that the numbers of affected Americans doubles every 20 years.
May is already recognized as National Celiac Awareness Month, and New York, Oregon, North Carolina and Ohio have recently come on board at the state level with their own resolutions. Declaring May as Celiac Awareness Month in California will help bring attention to the disease and facilitate the goal of increasing awareness. Elaine Monarch, founder and executive director of the Celiac Disease Foundation, expressed the importance of such a designation: "CDF is grateful to Senator Bob Huff for being at the forefront of this Resolution, which will help us shine a light on the importance of the early diagnosis of celiac disease"

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The lawyer for six women suing the University of Tennessee on its handling of sexual assault complaints by student-athletes is focused on the school's systemic problems he believes exist and is surprised at the attention the complaint's brief mention of Peyton Manning generated.
"It's certainly unanticipated," attorney David Randolph Smith said.
Smith said he included events from the last two decades — one involved Manning in 1996 — to show how Tennessee has handled reports of misconduct.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Jeff Gordon will be in the booth and Tony Stewart in a bed when the NASCAR season begins.
Neither NASCAR star will be in a car when Daytona International Speedway opens Friday for preparations for the Feb. 21 season-opening Daytona 500. Gordon, arguably NASCAR's biggest star, retired at the end of last season and the four-time champion will now be a Fox analyst.
EMBU, Kenya — Two Kenyan athletes serving four-year bans for doping at the 2015 world championships say the chief executive of Athletics Kenya, the country's governing body for track and field, asked them each for a $24,000 bribe to reduce their suspensions.
LOS ANGELES — ESPN, the sports network that drives Disney's profit engine, has hit a soft patch. Subscribers have fallen by about 7.2 million over the last three years, according to Nielsen, and it's coming off a round of layoffs. As more people cut the cord to watch programming online, its perch on top of the pay TV empire is looking unsteady at best.
The network's troubles are a bellwether for one of TV's biggest challenges: the ever-increasing cost of sports rights and whether consumers want to keep footing the bill.
Coach Rick Pitino said Tuesday morning that he is still waiting to be interviewed by the NCAA about an escort's book allegations that a former Louisville staffer hired her and other dancers for sex parties at the team's dormitory.
Pitino has said repeatedly that he did not know about the incidents, and Tuesday took that a step further, saying that athletic director Tom Jurich does not believe he was aware of the activities.
DENVER — From the top of a fire truck, Von Miller thrust the Super Bowl trophy into the air again and again as the Denver Broncos convoy made its way through streets lined with blue-and-orange clad fans.
Behind Miller, the Super Bowl MVP, stood Peyton Manning and DeMarcus Ware. Behind them, the architect of this team and Hall of Famer John Elway.
Fittingly, the group traveled the route, which was a bit longer than a mile, in fire truck No. 18 — Manning's number. Will he be back with the Broncos?
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cam Newton isn't apologizing for acting like a "sore loser" after the Super Bowl.
The league's MVP has been widely criticized for walking out of a three-minute press conference after a 24-10 loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday in which he answered questions with mostly one- and two-word responses while sulking in his chair wearing a black Carolina Panthers hoodie over his head.
"Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser," Newton said Tuesday as players cleaned out their lockers at the team's downtown stadium.
Villanova joined an exclusive club Monday. The Wildcats are now among the 57 schools to have been ranked No. 1 in The Associated Press college basketball poll.
The Wildcats had been ranked No. 2 seven times — last time the final poll of last season — but had never made that one step up.
"There's still a lot of basketball left to be played and handling this will be another challenge for our team," Villanova coach Jay Wright said. "We look forward to it."
GREENBURGH, N.Y. — Derek Fisher had just finished a long playing career when Phil Jackson picked him to coach the New York Knicks. Just 1½ seasons later, Jackson decided he needed someone else.
Fisher was fired Monday, with his team having lost five straight and nine of 10 to fall well back in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
"It's time for us to make a change, turn this team around and move forward and get some wins and keep going down the road we had started here at the beginning of the year," Jackson said at the team's practice facility.
DALLAS (AP) — Johnny Manziel's ex-girlfriend says in an affidavit that he hit her so hard during a late-night confrontation that she lost hearing in one ear.
Colleen Crowley's affidavit was obtained by KXAS-TV (http://bit.ly/1olRUCr ) and published online Monday. Crowley suffered a ruptured eardrum, which is expected to eventually heal, Crowley's lawyer, Kathy Kinser, told the television station.

ExxonMobil Shareholders Once Again Defeat LGBT Nondiscrimination Protections
As they have many times before, the shareholders of ExxonMobil have once again voted down a proposal to implement nondiscrimination protections for LGBT employees, with a stunning 81-19 vote. The Dallas Voice notes this is the lowest amount of support the measure has ever received in its 14 consecutive years of consideration since Exxon merged with Mobil in 1999 and stripped them away.
What makes this year's vote distinct is that ExxonMobil was sued just last week in Illinois for blatantly engaging in discrimination against a gay candidate, preferring a less qualified candidate over one who openly identified as gay. It was a test run by the group Freedom to Work, which then filed the suit with evidence from the test in hand. ExxonMobil became the first company to ever receive a negative rating from the Human Rights Campaign for not only providing no support for LGBT employees, but advocating against the LGBT community. Exxon ranks second on the Fortune 500, 88 percent of which have LGBT protections.

There is off campus housing like houses and apartments, but these are obtained through the school. They are very nice options for students not interested in living in the dorms.

It could have been way better with the right sound effects.
And you have a preloader problem, probably the common one, did you set libraries' preloader method to custom loop or exporting frame to 2 in the script settings in publishing settings before you published the flash?
If not, give it a try.
Which one?

While this is an amusing game, I must question why, when my legless waist was what impacted the ground, was my left arm amputated?
You don't see it very well if it's the left arm, but if you only have one, it points downward.

What do you think of Quagga compared to XORP as a dynamic software routing engine? What are the technical merits of each engine comparatively? Additionally, what do most people think of them from a programming view. Who has manipulated networks using these enginers? I was wondering from an OSPF, routing, BGP protocol user's perpspective.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
The following does not answer your question completely, but the Vyatta open source routers and the OpenSolaris customer gateway software for Amazon VPC both use quagga to implement BGP support.
From the wikipedia entry for XORP,
It is one of many options, but not particularly of very much use to you based upon your questions/information that you posted here. Have you tried looking into some of the alternatives such as (nothing comes to mind)?
Small, fast, oddly placed, optimized, super-heroic and more filler for a resume.
I can't speak for most people, but I for myself do not give it much credit or merit, or well... you know what I mean.
I could not find specific references, but I do remember reading that both Disney and the 'famous' YUV corporation of South Africa both played with this notion before. I believe Disney abandoned it with the fall of Michael Eisner.
I am a BGP protocol user's prospective. Hopefully we hear from OSPF and routing user's perspectives shortly.
Good question.

Authorities identified the men involved in a traffic accident Sunday that sparked a vehicle fire and sent a motorcyclist to a local hospital with potentially life-threatening injuries.
About 5:35 p.m. Sunday, E.J. Pablo Chavez, 27, of Amarillo, was driving north on the 1100 block of South Washington Street on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Amarillo Police Department Sgt. Leslie Supina said it appeared Chavez was speeding and lost control of the bike, causing it to slide toward a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado pickup driven by Alexander Eugene Priest, 40, of Amarillo.
Priest had stopped the pickup when the he saw the motorcycle, but the motorcycle slid underneath, breaking the motorcycle's gas tank and causing a fire, police said.
Priest was able to get out of the vehicle before the fire started and was not injured.
The incident is under investigation by the Amarillo Police Department's Traffic Investigation Squad.

"I truly loved this book…such a marvelous work…" –Emma Thompson
"A masterpiece…matchlessly clever…wholly original." John Carey
"The story is simple, the implications are complex. Rachel is one of the great English female characters. . . . She is Scarlett O'Hara, Blanche DuBois, Snow White and Miss Havisham all rolled into one." —S.J. Newman, The Times Literary Supplement
"A truly remarkable novel, unique and of a world all its own, the best work I've read for a long time. . . . I took it slowly, so many pages a day. I'm never one to spoil enjoyment when into something so extraordinary." —Alan Sillitoe
"Benatar brilliantly imagines himself into a tragically compassionate mind for which wild fancy is the only, and proper, antidote to despair." —The Guardian
"A neglected masterpiece…Brilliant…" –Joan Bakewell, The Times (London)
"This horrifying exploration of madness at least deserves to be called a cult classic." –The Independent
"A remarkably odd and chilling story." –The Observer (London)
"There is something about Rachel Waring—something which is instantly apparent when you read the book—that makes the reader care deeply for her…Wish her Safe at Home is spooky, odd and brilliant." –Camden New Journal
"The atmosphere of encroaching cobwebs, decreasing funds and withering reality is well done…a nice grey sense of eccentricity shading into madness." –The Guardian (London)
"Rachel's impact on the world is only glimpsed in snatches, but they're enough to suggest that her self-view is woefully at odds with society at large. It's a brilliantly clever technique, with an impact particularly unsettling for those who choose to live alone." –The Observer (London)
"This is one of those satisfying stories that is told in the first person by one who does not understand the import of what she's revealing–very much like Molly Keane's 'Good Behavior,' in fact. Rachel goes entirely mad, but in a way that perfectly reveals a grim world of predatory intent and callousness all around her. It is a black comedy, exuberantly grotesque, but sad and poignant as well." –Katherine A. Powers, Boston Globe

Flight From Freedom: What Russians Think and Want
When the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, expectations were high that Russia, rid of communism, would take a firm pro-Western course: democratizing its political system, granting its citizens unassailable civil rights, and rejoining the international community. Such were the promises made by President Boris Yeltsin when he took charge. But after more than a decade, these expectations have not been realized. Since ex-KGB colonel Vladimir Putin took over as president in 2000, Russia's democratic institutions have been muzzled, its civil rights restricted, and its cooperation with the international community far from assured.
What accounts for these unwelcome trends? Polling data from a variety of sources suggest that the answer is more complex than meets the eye. Although actions undertaken by Putin and his associates play a large part, there is a good deal of evidence that the antidemocratic, antilibertarian actions of the current administration are not being inflicted on the Russian people but are actually supported by them. This evidence also indicates that no more than one Russian in ten cares about democratic liberties and civil rights.
Before examining what Russians say and think today, it is necessary to look back at Russia's past. Despite its reputation for unpredictability, Russia is a remarkably conservative nation whose mentality and behavior change slowly, if at all, over time, regardless of the regime in power.
As recently as 75 years ago, 80 percent of Russia's population engaged in agriculture and lived in scattered, largely self-sufficient villages. (The country had only two major cities -- Moscow

AbstractGiven the high pressures required to micro-atomize logistics fuels, we believe the smallest and safest Micro-Atomizing Logistic-Fuel Delivery System can be achieved by using a pre-combustion vaporization strategy. State-of-the-art capillary pumps can gasify high-viscosity liquid fuels with sufficient velocity to design a passive air-entrainment system. A device based on capillary pump technology can meet the target 300 watts, "deck of cards" size requirement with a relatively small amount of startup thermal energy. An on-board battery-powered heater will be used for start-up in cold conditions. An MSR capillary pump micro-atomizer can be adapted to power a wide range of combustion driven, man-portable applications for the Objective Force Warrior.

There's been some drama recently over the removal of a few names from the list of potential interviewees posted at bitcoin.org. Despite being some of Bitcoin's biggest proponents, Roger Ver and Jon Matonis are apparently too extreme to represent our fledgling currency to the media. But this latest act is just a symptom of a much larger disease: Bitcoin has an image problem.
Let's have a look at public perception of two groups. First, what do most people imagine when you say the word "banker?"
No matter what your personal politics say about Mr. Bernanke up there, you've got to admit he looks pretty professional. Now what does the average mental image of a Bitcoiner look like?
Again, no matter what your personal opinions of LukeJr are, this is the kind of face people associate with Bitcoin. It's an unfair stereotype, but it is what people actually think – to the masses, Bitcoiners fall into two main categories:
- Hackers/Geeks/Nerds
- These guys are in it for the tech. If they somehow become the subject of a TV interview, they will spout off jargon and confuse the interviewer and everyone watching the interview, thus entrenching us deeper in the widely-held belief that "That Bitcoin stuff is way too complicated."
- Hard-Line Libertarians/Anarchists/Crazy People
- These guys are in it for the anonymity. Whether they're peddling porn, drugs or just plain dodging taxes they're in Bitcoin for political reasons. If they end up in front of a camera they'll make us all look crazy and perpetuate the idea that Bitcoin is the currency of <insert political party here>, pornographers, drug dealers and others living on the societal fringes.
Now these are unfair and extreme stereotypes, but they are the way a lot of people actually think. This is the only defensible point in the removal of Ver and Matonis from bitcoin.org and it's hard not to agree that both fellows have been a bit political in the past, occasionally too much so, but I do feel like they are still some of the best spokespersons we have. It's OK to geek out a little on camera and it's OK to be a little political so long as you can maintain moderation.
Of course there's a third archetype you'll see in front of the camera quite a bit, too:
- The Detractor
- These guys dismiss Bitcoin as "play money" and use their poor grasp of economics to make it sound like the worst idea ever. Their points are almost never valid but they're usually wearing a suit and speaking authoritatively. They'll often make disparaging references to those who fall into the other two categories.
So where are all of the moderate, reasonable, well-balanced individuals? We know they exist, so why can't this guy get any air time?
He looks pretty professional… Or what about this guy?
OK, so Tony is probably the better pick, at least he's wearing a tie – but regularly wearing collared shirts should count for something, right? Shameless self-promotion aside, there are plenty of professional, intelligent people who give good interviews scattered throughout the Bitcoin community, so why do we so seldom see them on the news? Because they don't fit the narrative.
All too often, the media outlet in question isn't really interested in providing a fair and balanced perspective. Fair and balanced doesn't sell ad slots and most reporters have already made up their mind about Bitcoin and are cherry-picking interviewees who fit their personal views. They've already decided how the story is going to play, usually based on a feeling they got after spending less than five minutes on research. This is the way the media works now, so I can understand not wanting to feed into it by promoting people who fit the negative archetypes even a little – but those are the people who are going to get the interviews anyway, so wouldn't it be better to give them a little of what they want wrapped in a somewhat respectable bundle? Would you rather turn on the evening news to see an interview by somewhat-political Roger Ver or completely insane-sounding Max Keiser?
But hey, maybe I'm the crazy one. Maybe I'm too invested in this – Roger Ver does run BitcoinStore, one of my sponsors, and while I can't call Jon Matonis anything more than an acquaintance, he is in my Skype contacts. Maybe this is the sort of thing the people should decide. What do you think?

Help with asking my father for financial support
My dad will be making his last child support payment to my mother next month for my brother who is 19 and no longer in full time education (he's going to university). After then he will no longer financially support my brother - he hasn't financially supported me since I was 18 when he made his last support payment. I am now thinking of asking him directly to make a monthly payment to me and my brother since he isn't supporting us in any other way. [more inside]
Life coach through employer: Good idea?
I'm struggling in a few areas of my life (mostly related to doing the bulk of the parenting for two little kids, with a spouse who works long hours and travels frequently) and having a bit of trouble staying focused at work. I was looking into our employee assistance program, which is run through HRI, and they offer "short-term counseling" and online/telephone life coaching. I would like to hear the experiences of anyone who has used this type of service; I have never used any flavor of mental health care. [more inside]

Super short tips and tricks for ADHD and / or depression
I'm struggling today with both. The ADHD makes searching for help a little more difficult than normal. Can you give me (really short) one liner suggestions for making it through? Mostly focusing on being productive, and coping strategies, but also maybe ways to be kind to oneself. [more inside]
What is a good standard set of IT Infrastructure Project Milestones?
I've been tasked with developing a set of standard IT Infrastructure Project Milestones and I'm kind of at a loss on coming up with a standard. Basically we have weekly status slides (PPTs) that we fill out for EVERY project that's in flight at our company. I'm the PM for Infrastructure. I was using something pretty generic like: 1. Project Kick-Off 2. Requirements Review/Sign Off 3. Design 4. Development or Set Up/Configuration 5. Test Unit & UAT (Regression & System If Applicable) 6. Deploy (Pilot * Deploy Where Applicable) 7. Warranty All you IT gurus out there (and PMs!) can you help me develop something better that can be used as a standard?

addicted to giving away money
This is my first ever question on metafilter, and it probably sounds absurd. I recently got a relatively-high-paying job away from home, and I'm only 23. Maybe it's because I'm lonely, but only time I feel good about myself or feel like I'm worth anything is when I help others. [more inside]
Time to get a new job pt. 2
I know exactly what I want out of work, and it is this: working on creative projects to make something useful (and also cool) as part of a team. And also money. Not tons, but enough to get by. I have a BA, but nearly all my work experience to date has been in low/no-skill labor. How do I bootstrap myself into a new career and what should I even be looking at? [more inside]
Meal delivery service for grieving family
One of my co-workers has lost both parents within 3 months of each other. We are not super super close, and so far she hasn't accepted my offers of specific, practical things I can do to help (watching her kids, going to grocery store. etc.). I'd like to make her life a little easier anyway, so I was thinking about some kind of meal delivery service so she wouldn't need to cook for a little bit. [more inside]
Parking by the Philly US Custom House
I need to go to the Philadelphia Passport Agency on Friday morning. The state dept website assures me there are several pay parking lots in the vicinity. But I'd prefer more concrete directions, as I'm driving in from 3 hrs away for an 8am appointment. Can anyone give me recommendations and addresses of lots or garages that are very likely to be open that are nearby? Where I can park all day? The address is 200 Chestnut St. [more inside]
Still need help
In my last question I laid out a basic primer to understanding the clusterfuck that is my life right now and you were very helpful. I took some of your advice and hired a cleaning lady to clean my kitchen. But I realize now that the kind of help I need for getting the rest of the house in order is kind of extreme and I need help thinking it through and making a plan. [more inside]

Friend/employee sexually assaulted
I am a manager and have an employee in my department who is also a friend. She's been having trouble with marriage for some time now and she's confided that it will be ending. Yesterday, she came in an asked to talk privately outside. She was a mess, saying she had been sexually assaulted by her husband the night before. I comforted at best as I could, offering several options for help on a professional. But at this point, I'm not sure of the best way to proceed, privately or professionally. [more inside]

I need a better job! What's an introvert with a B.S. to do??
Here's my situation: I graduated with a bachelor's in biology, and have had a series of jobs I liked, involving wildlife rehabilitation and working at a zoo... but I've moved and these jobs are hard to come by in my current location, AND, none of these jobs make any money. So what career field can I transition into that could help me take advantage of the fact that I already have a bachelor's degree? [more inside]

IT positions that don't rely on working with people
I've been bombing in interviews for IT Help Desk, or Desktop Support positions, and whenever I've called back the interviewer, the most common answer they give is "poor communication skills". Is there any entry point into the field that wouldn't rely so much on working with people? Would it make more sense to work as QA tester, and then try to transition to something in systems or database administration?
CL posting help - apartment post only shows up under specific searches
I'm trying to rent an apartment on Craigslist. The issue is that after my post has been successfully put up, it only appears when searching criteria fit the details of my post. What I mean: It's a 3 bedroom, so if someone searches in my area for 3BR, the ad will appear. However, if someone just goes into the general "all apartments" section the ad does not appear. What gives? Looking through the application section again, I don't see how I could have done things differently. Am I missing a radio button to do this? Should I classify it as 0-3 BR in the ad setup? Does CL charge for different add access?
Oops UPS
I had a return to Amazon. I printed the label they provided and put it on the envelope. I didn't realize it was a UPS label and not USPS until last night when I went to check the status of my return.

How can I help a friend in an abusive relationship that she almost left?
My best friend has been seeing someone for about 7-8 months now. Initially, he seemed very nice and friendly. However, as the months have gone by he's turned out to not be right for her. To make things worse, she's being emotionally abused by him on a rather subtle level, to the point where several times she's been crying while talking to me about him. A couple of weeks ago almost broke up with him after talking with me about recent problem, where I got fed up with the crap she was dealing with and told her she should end it. Since I know she tends to listen to me and to trust my thoughts, should I make a bigger effort to convince her to leave this guy? [more inside]
Be my career counselor?
I'm a college biology major. Everyone I know is applying to medical school, but the idea of medical school scares me. I'm not qualified for jobs in my field.

I'm trying really hard to simplify an overwhelming digital life. Help.
I switched over to iCloud a number of months ago. I currently have rules set up in Apple Mail to filter incoming mail into folders. I want these emails but I don't want them in my inbox. The problem is it doesn't work as I anticipated. It would appear if Apple Mail isn't open, the rules won't apply themselves on my iPhone. And even if Apple Mail is open, the rule doesn't apply itself immediately, and my iPhone is pinged, I check my email, and then the email "disappears" into the folder. This is getting really f*cking annoying. [more inside]
How can I be of best use to the world?
I'm looking to change careers and my goal is to be doing "that what is most effective towards helping the world". I asked in a previous question "What is the cause with the most leverage" and since then effective altruism seemed to be the best solution for making a difference on the biggest scale. But if I wanted to help that cause it seems like there's no better way to do it than to make a ton of money. Other than earn a ton of money, I suppose I could try to work for an organization like LifeYouCanSave. But would I be necessarily of greatest help doing that i.e suppose they have all the help they need other than people to donate. I'm not looking for importance or anything. If somehow standing on a corner counting how many red cars go by is the best thing I can be doing for the world, then so be it. I just want to know that I'm being useful.
Why is my newly build computers internet not working?
So, I just finished building a new computer and have installed windows, all the driver CDs, etc. Then I went to connect it to the internet so I could install some anti-virus software, download the rest of the drivers, etc and no dice. I feel bad having to ask for help, since I'm a computer geek, but well, it is ethernet straight into a modem; normally I just plug it in and it works. [more inside]
Help me, help myself?
How to approach therapy when I'm not really sure what I'm going for but feel depression has a huge part of it. Kicker - the standard tests show I'm not and I don't know how far to push to get some help or what I even need help for. [more inside]

I need to hire help…any tips?
I'm a few hours from the end of a very successful Kickstarter campaign, and as a result I'm suddenly in charge of a company with nearly 2000 customers and a lot of work to accomplish. I need to hire some help, but not having done this before, I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for or how to find it. Basically, I want to use some of my project funding to make it so that I can focus all of my efforts on project goals that only I can accomplish. I think that means hiring a secretary and/or a personal assistant, and someone who I can trust to answer my emails, tell me when I actually need to deal with something personally, and potentially even have access to my credit cards for buying groceries, outsourcing project-related tasks, etc. What's involved in finding someone who does good work and is trustworthy? (I'm in Los Angeles, though I can imagine having someone do much of the secretarial work remotely)

If stimulus worked, then why isn't it? The US has $1 trillion deficits for four years in a row. If that's not stimulus, what is? Since it isn't working, the next question is how are we going to pay for it?While pondering those questions, please note US runs a 4th straight $1 trillion-plus budget gap.
The United States has now spent $1 trillion more than it's taken in for four straight years.The Treasury Department confirmed Friday what was widely expected: The deficit for the just-ended 2012 budget year — the gap between the government's tax revenue and its spending — totaled $1.1 trillion. Put simply, that's how much the government had to borrow.It wasn't quite as ugly as last year.Tax revenue rose 6.4 percent from 2011 to $2.45 trillion. And spending fell 1.7 percent to $3.5 trillion. As a result, the deficit shrank 16 percent, or $207 billion. When Obama took office in January 2009, the Congressional Budget Office forecast that the deficit that year would total $1.2 trillion. It ended up at a record $1.41 trillion. Debt piles up, year after year. It's reached $11.3 trillion — $16.2 trillion if you include money the government has borrowed from itself, mostly revenue from Social Security.Unless something changes, the Congressional Budget Office warns, the federal debt would reach a level that is "unsustainable from both a budgetary and an economic perspective."Over time, big government debts can damage the economy. The economists Kenneth Rogoff of Harvard University and Carmen Reinhart of the Peterson Institute for International Economics have found that growth tends to slow sharply once national government debt reaches 90 percent of GDP.

Reviving Quest to Tame Energy of Stars
By MALCOLM W. BROWNE
Published: June 8, 1999
PLAINSBORO, N.J.— In its heyday it was a palace among physics laboratories, with an enviably fat budget, ample support staff and the prestige that comes to research institutions working at the cutting edge in solving global problems. But today, the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, still a leader in hydrogen fusion research, is so short of cash that it can no longer afford even a receptionist.
However, a dry spell of discouragements and spending cuts for fusion research may be ending. With their backs to a financial wall, specialists in the field are banding together to pursue the elusive goal of harnessing thermonuclear fusion, the process that drives the sun and hydrogen bombs.
Leaders in the field say the new spirit calls for lean, selective financing of small-scale experiments as well as the large ones that have dominated the field's history, increased cooperation between long-standing competitors, and a lot of patience.
Proponents of hydrogen fusion, the joining together of hydrogen nuclei to produce useful energy, have suffered too many frustrations over the years to hope for too much too soon. Fusion energy will not come tomorrow. But it could become a reality in the mid-21st century, believers say, and slow the carbon dioxide pollution of the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels -- a problem that may be leading to disastrous global warming.
Pressed by tight budgetary constraints imposed by Congress, competing fusion laboratories have begun sharing and coordinating their research to a greater extent than ever and have drafted guidelines for allocating their limited resources as they would an investment portfolio, giving major financing to the most promising projects but gambling some funds for high-risk but potentially fruitful experiments.
Next month fusion scientists and engineers from around the world will hold a meeting in Snowmass, Colo., to discuss all the devices and proposals currently on the table. It will be the first meeting of its kind, according to its co-chairman, Dr. Michael E. Mauel of Columbia University, and it signals a growing realization that if fusion energy is ever to become a reality it will require global cooperation rather than endless competition between nations and individual laboratories.
The main obstacle to accelerated research fusion, many scientists say, is the disincentive created by low fossil fuel prices.
''Right now,'' said Dr. Robert J. Goldston, director of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory in New Jersey, ''a bottle of table water costs more than a bottle of gasoline. But cheap oil won't last forever, and in any case, the burning of fossil fuels may be contributing to global warming. Fusion, which could produce enormous amounts of energy at reasonable cost with only negligible amounts of radioactive waste and no pollution of the atmosphere, may be our only practical alternative to fossil fuels.''
No one doubts that hydrogen fusion can be achieved. Huge pulses of fusion power have already been generated by experimental fusion reactors in the United States and Europe. The trouble is that until now, conventional generating plants have had to supply more energy to kindle a thermonuclear pulse than the pulse itself produces. No one has yet been able to squeeze thermonuclear fuel tightly enough and long enough to ignite a self-sustaining fusion reaction.
In the sun, energy is produced when hydrogen nuclei fuse to produce helium, a heavier element. But for hydrogen nuclei to overcome their mutual electrostatic repulsion and get close enough to fuse, they must have very high velocities, that is to say, they must be very, very hot. Scores of different reactor designs have been built, tested and abandoned over the years, most of which belong to one of two main categories: magnetic confinement, the squeezing of plasma by magnetic fields; and inertial confinement, the squeezing of hot gas by the implosion of miniature hydrogen bombs.
A magnetic confinement device uses powerful interlocked magnetic fields to contain and compress hot, electrically charged plasma (a kind of gas) within a vacuum chamber. The plasma must never touch the solid walls of its container; otherwise, it instantly loses its heat and can never be coaxed into undergoing fusion. Everything depends on keeping the plasma's magnetic bottle tightly stoppered, which is no easy task.
Most of the stars of magnetic fusion experiments have been devices called tokamaks. One of the largest and most successful of these machines was the Princeton laboratory's big Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor, which in 1994 produced a record-breaking pulse of 10.7 million watts of fusion power. It was shut down two years ago for lack of money.
The device's lineage goes back to the early 1950's, when the Soviet scientists Andrei Sakharov and Igor Tamm proposed the design and named it tokamak -- the Russian acronym for ''toroidal magnetic chamber'' -- a doughnut-shaped machine that compresses fusion fuel magnetically.
Since then, however, the seemingly simple tokamak idea proved to conceal endless pitfalls and complications, and despite great progress in understanding the behavior of plasmas, commercial fusion power by magnetic confinement is still only a dream.
A competing approach to fusion is inertial confinement, in which hydrogen bombs the size of small BB pellets would be detonated in a target chamber, transferring their energy to a metal ''blanket.''

I think I made a minor error with my headings. I didn't like <h1> font size and it bolded on one of my first pages of my website so I created a custom template without a title and I manually put in the title on the page myself. I liked the flexibility it gave me so I just went ahead and did that with all my pages. I used the "font sized" option of the visual editor to size my Headings.
It occurred to me though that Google probably looks for the <h1> tags for it's search engine and I am hurting myself by doing this. Is this correct? Should I go back and change my CSS to reflect the header that I want and use the header tags instead?
Also, should I do this the same for lesser headings with smaller fonts that are being used or does that matter?
