Career Center: Major & Career Exploration
Not sure what major or career is best for you? You're not alone! Common questions people ask you when they find out you are in college are, "What is your major?" and "What are you going to do with your major?" You will be asked these questions from now until you graduate, and not having the answers can be very frustrating. Nevertheless, it is okay to be struggling with these questions. The Career Center has the tools and resources to help you!
The Pilot MAP is a four phase guide to help you design your plan of action for your time at the University of Portland. Each phase has a theme to encourage students to take advantage of the many resources on and off campus: Explore, Engage, Experience, and Enhance. It is not merely a "To Do" list of items to check off a list – rather it is a customizable plan that enables you to tailor your plan and engage with resources (people, places, activities, etc.) that with support your goals. For more information about the Pilot MAP, visit Pilot MAP.

For most people, career development is a lifelong process of learning and exploration as we try to find our niche in the "world of work." Career development can be broken down into several phases or stages. Each individual varies in their progress through this process for many reasons; some advance rapidly through each phase, while others progress more slowly. Individuals may repeat all or parts of the career development process at various points throughout their lives as values, interests, abilities and life circumstances change.
Below is an overview of the Career Development Process:

Newark (Del.) High football coach Butch Simpson said you don't hear the ball hit David Grinnage's hands when Grinnage catches a pass.
"He has incredibly soft hands," Simpson said. "Catching the ball is probably the best thing that he does."
The 6-foot-5, 243-pound senior committed to N.C. State on Tuesday.
"I think that N.C. State is looking at him as a tight end, but we run a spread and he was more of a slot back, an H-back for us," Simpson said. "We had four good receivers ahead of him at the start of last season, but he kept getting better and better and started catching passes and scoring touchdowns."
Newark finished 6-4 in 2010, but averaged 37 points per game.
Grinnage is a great athlete, Simpson said. Grinnage was a wrestler and hit clean up for the Newark baseball team.

text: Milwaukee has launched a pilot program that harnesses the power of cheese brine mixed with rock salt to de-ice the city's frozen roads, because when 2.7 billion pounds of cheese per annum pours out of your ears, you may as well dump some of the leftovers onto the streets. "We're just trying to make every possible use of cheese," a city alderman tells the Times, adding that the program, which saves the city money by deploying an otherwise useless byproduct, may soon spread around the country. But there's an art to the coating of streets with cheese: "You want to use provolone or mozzarella," says an official. Milwaukee's cheese roads join the ranks of New Jersey's pickle-brined highways, the great hops-lined avenues of Massachusetts, and the beet-sugar-glazed streets of Missouri. [NYT]

With former "Punky Brewster" star Soleil Moon Frye welcoming her fourth child, son Story, on Monday, take a look at some other celebrity baby names that are just as unique, if not more so.
Kate Winslet named her third child Bear Blaze Winslet. Bear is the first child for Winslet and husband Ned Rocknroll, though Winslet has two other children, Mia and Joe, from previous marriages. She told Ellen DeGeneres she loved the name because a friend was nicknamed Bear. "He was very much a bear, he was everybody's shoulder to cry on, he was a big bear hug. He was just this great figure in my life," she said. "Bear's second name is Blaze because my husband and I met in a house fire basically," the actress said, referring to the fire that consumed billionaire Richard Branson's Caribbean home while she was staying there in 2011. "The house burnt down and we survived, but we wanted something of the fire, and so Blaze was the name that we came up with."

Contemporary art and architecture to decorate New Orleans
Published: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 5:22 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 1, 2009 at 5:22 p.m.
HOUMA - Visitors to New Orleans can check out architecture and other work produced by internationally-recognized artists beginning next week as part of a free, week-long event.
DesCours, a contemporary architecture and art event, runs Dec. 7-13 in New Orleans.
The event aims to explore creativity, culture and expression within urban settings.
DesCours shows off the latest in design and technology through the presentation of innovative, large-scale architecture installations.
After a competitive review of proposals from architects and artists, 13 installations were chosen to nightly transform hidden spaces across the French Quarter and Central Business District.
Private courtyards, vacant buildings and rooftops will be activated with a variety of installations by architects and artists representing seven U.S. states, including Louisiana, and Tokyo and Paris.
DesCours includes self-guided and docent-led tours leaving nightly from the new Center for Design on Lee Circle.
Installations will be paired with changing entertainment by musicians.
Public parties will commemorate the start, midpoint and end of the event.
American Institute of Architects New Orleans is presenting the event in partnership with numerous organizations.

The health benefits and quality-of-life outcomes of a fit musculoskeletal system (musculoskeletal fitness) are reviewed in this article. The World Health Organization suggests health is a state of complete physical, mental or social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Physical health includes such characteristics as body size and shape, sensory acuity, susceptibility to disease and disorders, body functioning, recuperative ability and the ability to perform certain tasks.
One aspect of physical health is the musculoskeletal system, which consists of 3 components; muscular strength, endurance and flexibility. Muscular strength (dynamic) is defined as the maximum force a muscle or muscle group can generate at a specific velocity. Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or muscle group to perform repeated contractions against a load for an extended period of time. Flexibility has 2 components, dynamic or static, where dynamic flexibility is the opposition or resistance of a joint to motion, that is, the forces opposing movement rather than the range of movement itself. Static flexibility is the range of motion about a joint, typically measured as the degree of arc at the end of joint movement. If strength, endurance and flexibility are not maintained, musculoskeletal fitness is then compromised which can significantly impact physical health and well-being.
Many health benefits are associated with musculoskeletal fitness, such as reduced coronary risk factors, increased bone mineral density (reduced risk of osteoporosis), increased flexibility, improved glucose tolerance, and greater success in completion of activities of daily living (ADL).With aging, the performance of daily tasks can become a challenge. Additionally, falls, bone fractures and the need for institutional care indicate a musculoskeletal weakness as we age. The earlier in life an individual becomes physically active the greater the increase in positive health benefits; however, becoming physically active at any age will benefit overall health.
Improved musculoskeletal fitness (for example, through resistance training combined with stretching) is associated with an enhanced health status. Thus, maintaining musculoskeletal fitness can increase overall quality of life.

Just bustin' bad guys? WTF?!? They have already proven that they were guilty? Hell, may as well kill them right there in the fucking street!
That is why I never vote to increase the funding of police. Until the police start to learn what their fucking jobs are. People are innocent until proven guilty in court you fuck heads!!!
I assume those are dates of birth and... names of suspects?
The obscuring in the photo is pretty minimal. I can make out some letters, enough that an entire name could be recognizable to a friend of the named. Is there a potential obstruction issue here?
So, guess I'll be first. Why did you take a picture of the notepad?
hm. I wonder what the probable cause was. Jonah, any follow up would be cool, so we can, you know, avoid this type of thing, if ya nomesayne.
kinda boring, jonah.
a tobacco can, not a coffee can.
Remember when Kerlikowske had his gun stolen in 2005? These guys are geniuses, top to bottom!
now I HAVE to look up incident number 08230706 to see what happened to the people born on 12-23-1984 and 9-7-1984.
Cato @1, way to overreact to a casual comment. But to humor your objection for fun's sake...
Do you expect police to somehow remain agnostic to all suspects' guilt, regardless of what they see? I'd think we'd want police to be observant and engaged enough to have a confident opinion of a suspect's guilt before making an arrest. (It's a big step from a cop calling you a bad guy to being convicted at trial, as it should be.)
The other interpretation I see is that you're suggesting we should eliminate probable cause requirements and have cops conducting searches and arrests without worrying whether there's an actual crime. Lock 'em up and let the prosecutors figure it out?
drug dealers are performing an important community service. "bad guys" my ass.
Um, if there was in fact no "bad guy" on the scene, it looks and sounds more like they were simply rifling though somebody's car in search of contraband; which clearly they found. So, presumably it was in plain view, which I suppose would be sufficient to establish probable cause.
But still, not really "bustin' teh bad guys" unless an actual arrest results.
Just because the police determine you are bad does not mean they have found you guilty. Guilt is for the courts, but any honest man can know if you are bad. Some guys are just bad. Bad to the bone. They do get busted for it, and so they should.
And a bust is not an arrest.
So what?
So ... how did this help you in your job?
What IS your job, anyway?
I thought Cindy McCain was way older than 24.
I think that he's inferring he rifled through it to get leads.
More crack reporting on the 2 block radius around the Stranger office!
Notebook - notebook!?! I thought for sure you'd find the bag of weed on your roof.
# 10 wins
close 2nd for #18, tho...
So the moral of the story is:
If some smarmy STRANGER reporter asks you to move your car so he can get out, tell him to get fucked, you'll move when you're finished.
Because gods forbid that you go out of your way to minimize the impact of police work on a citizen, and then make a mistake. Why, you might move your car for someone and set your notebook down, and then be mocked for your obliging attitude.
So, asshole, why WERE you parked next to a dope dealer, eh?
Jonah you really pussed out here man. Why did you blur out what you had? That's public record and I don't care what Seattle PD says about it. You got access and that, there, makes it public immediately. Though the names of suspects and DOB are public anyway. Cops are idiots and don't respect the public's right to know.
If The Stranger is going to cast itself as the best paper in town (or, the only) it needs to stand up for the public ... and you didn't do that here.
By the way, Jonah, I can tell the reason why you did this is because, though you work for the hardcore and hip Stranger, you were concerned that if you published the actual notepad that SPD wouldn't be willing to speak with you anymore.
Which is a crock of shit, because they have no right to close you out. If they did, that'd make your stories that more interesting.
Journalists need to not be pussies. That's very important.
This whole "fuck the cops" thing is blisteringly adolescent. All you armchair anarchists should try living in Sao Paolo for a few months, if you're so convinced you don't need an effective police force.
@22, @23
What about respecting the privacy rights of the people whose names SPD wrote on the pad. Do they want Jonah to broadcast their names for no reason other than a cop wrote it down?
wow! congrats on 'reporting' 2 blocks away from the Stranger hipster honeycomb hideout!
Up next: reporting from BROADWAY!!!!!!!!

Female patients of childbearing age should be told about the consequences of exposure to AVALIDE during pregnancy. Discuss treatment options with women planning to become pregnant. Patients should be asked to report pregnancies to their physician as soon as possible.
Symptomatic Hypotension
Patients using AVALIDE should be told that they may feel lightheaded, especially during the first days of use. Patients should inform their physician if they feel lightheaded or faint. If fainting occurs, the patient should stop using AVALIDE and contact the prescribing doctor.
Patients using AVALIDE should be told that getting dehydrated can lower their blood pressure too much and lead to lightheadedness and possible fainting. Dehydration may occur with excessive sweating, diarrhea, or vomiting and with not drinking enough liquids.

Is it normal to have such a high percentage of acceptance rate for the tender offer? Did anyone tender?
Yes,oversubscription-high acceptance rate-is common from what I have seen. Some people(actually institutions) just want to take the money and run. I didn't,and gladly, as often the price goes above the tender offer price-and today,NSR is hitting a 52 week high. Just an under the radar stock that continues to kick it.

Hi everybody!
I have a custom post type in my site named "services" whose capability is 'page'. The template structure that I have is:
- archive-services.php - archive template
- single-services.php - single post template
- sidebar-services.php - sidebar that lists all the posts of the 'services' type with wp_list_pages (it highlights the current posts)
The permalink structure for the archive is mysite.com/services/ and for the single posts mysite.com/services/post-1.
And here comes my question. I need to load a given page on mysite.com/services/ instead the archive, and this page has to be highlighted in the sidebar.
Which would be the best practive (and "cleanest") to get this behaviour? Changing the main query/loop inside archive-services.php? Adding a template redirect in functions.php?
Thanks in advance for your help!

The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program at Douglass Community Services its dedicated volunteers for their years of service at the annual Volunteer Recognition Banquet.
More than 415 RSVP volunteers work in the seven counties covered by RSVP. In the last year, RSVP volunteers donated nearly 50,000 hours of work to the local communities. If each volunteer were to receive a paycheck with appropriate benefits, that would be nearly $900,000 of financial services. More than 160 new volunteers joined in the last year.
"It is more than the hours you give. It's the heart and care you give to each task undertaken. Thank you for really listening when a child reads to you; for really caring when someone tells you how they feel; for completing each assignment with skill, while treating each person with dignity and respect. Your actions are the bedrock of our community spirit in Northeast Missouri," RSVP Program Director Stacey Nicholas told the volunteers in her report.
Volunteers recognized for years of service from Marion and Ralls Counties are:
Dale Cunningham, Rose Curfman, Doris McKay, and Hirmaline Whitney for 25 years of volunteering.
Bernice Allen, Frances Gilmore, Vincent Gilmore, Ruth Taliaferro, and Dorothy Webb for 20 years of service.
Ann Catlett, Dorothy Newlon, Elizabeth Roth, and Patricia Yount for 15 years of volunteering.
Eva Boggs, Bernice Cassidy, Titus Cassidy, Wilma Hightower, Mary Kempf, Jacqueline McElroy, Karen McFarland, Amy Moore, Lucille Orscheln, Ellen Jean Reeves, and Joan Rouse for 10 years of service.

Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
In 2005, Marvel drew the displeasure of Spain's royal family when the official portrait of King Juan Carlos — right down to the sash, medals and wall pattern! — was used as the basis of Mike Mayhew's image of Magneto for the cover of The Pulse: House of M Special. There were rumblings of legal action, followed by an apology and a new cover.
More than six years later, Magneto's Juan Carlos-inspired uniform is back, this time as a downloadable skin for Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. And so, too, are the royal family's objections, apparently.
Courtesy of Kotaku and a Google translation comes word from the Madrid newspaper Heraldo that Zarzuela Palace has asked Spanish game distributor Koch Media to remove the skin, which is virtually identical to the uniform worn by Juan Carlos in his role as Captain General of Armies of the King.
Contending that, like the Mayhew cover, the downloadable costume may infringe upon the copyright of the original portrait, the royal house insists it is seeking to prevent the "misuse" of the figure of the king and Spanish military uniform. For its part, Koch says it's not explicitly stated that the uniform is based on Juan Carlos'.
Magneto's House of M uniform will reportedly be available for digital download beginning Dec. 20.
Magento? Ironically more appropriate for his traditional uniform.
I can;t believe Marvel let this cover slip by them…. that's just sad that the artist got away with that. Straight up traced/manipulated the colors… all he did was add a white-haired Will Farrel head (why does Magneto look like Will Ferrel anyways???) Ugh….
Holy swipe file!
What's particuarly offensive about it, if you know anything about Spain in the last quarter of the twentieth century, is that Juan Carlos did so much to bring Spain from dictatorship to democracy in the years after the death of Franco & the end of the Falangist regime that to style a dictator after him, even a complex one like Magneto, is unthinking & unpleasant.
Looks like him? eh his head is completely different. Like its not even close. Except they are both male. The body is dead on though.
And yes clearly he used a famous picture of royalty as the base. If I had to guess it was to show Magneto was royalty of that world.
Magneto's face in the 1st paining looks a bit like Ted Danson.
Spain can GTFO, who cares what the royal family of Spain thinks? Who cares if they object?
LMFAO, like their objection will affect anything, anywhere!
THEY HAVE NO LEGAL rights, even in the original cover.
The only way a portrait is protected is if a street vendor is selling the portrait.
I can make a villain dressed as the Queen of England, right down to the family insignia, the coat of arms, what have you, and they have NO RIGHT to infringe upon my freedom.
Also, manipulation of images is an ACCEPTED art form
people need to realize that, its been going on forever
Somebody better warn Greg Land about his tracing.
Ted Dansen's face on Juan Carlos' body.
This is why super hero comics are awful.
Blame the idiots who buy the comics for allowing cheats like Land, Mack, Mayhew, etc. to make a living.
Marvel and DC should have a better policy about such things (And by policy I mean more than a meaningless "Marvel No Allow Swipe" press release) but that's a difficult thing to enforce when the culprits are your buddies.
Spain can GTFO, who cares what the royal family of Spain thinks? Who cares if they object?
LMFAO, like their objection will affect anything, anywhere!
It did the first time around.
It's not like this is a work of satire, where Marvel or the creators are trying to get a rise from the Royal family, it's an artist swiping.
Any country is going to grumble if you make their head of state into a terrorist mass murderer, and why would Marvel, subsidiary of Disney, want that?
THEY HAVE NO LEGAL rights, even in the original cover.
The only way a portrait is protected is if a street vendor is selling the portrait.
I can make a villain dressed as the Queen of England, right down to the family insignia, the coat of arms, what have you, and they have NO RIGHT to infringe upon my freedom.
There's no copyright on the piece because it's a portrait?
Never heard that before.
Seems odd that the official royal portrait wouldn't have ownership/copyright.
Marvel, Clue – i don't believe you two have met before.
That's really lazy. I would hope the artist was embarrassed, but he probably wasn't. There is a difference between being inspired by another image and just plain copying it and calling it your own.
Man, if I were a company with pockets as deep as Marvel, I would force any of my photorealistic artists to turn over their photo-reference and prove that they took the pictures themselves and are not swiping from copyrighted works. They're really just setting themselves up to be sued into bankrupcy with the amount of blatant stealing they've let guys like Mayhew, Land and Deodato get away with for years.
I don't know even understand why artists DO that…all it does is result in stiff artwork, and is often downright distracting. Marco Checchetto randomly traced a single picture of Morgan Freeman in the first issue of Punisher, but it was just so awkwardly plopped in there that it just ground everything to a halt.
I think its even worse that Land, Mayhew, Deodato and Larocca are all really good artists who have taken to tracing and using famous faces to speed up the process.
If they were outright hacks that would be one thing, but to do it when you can also put out great original work is just a shame.
Of course Land could also be criticized for taking narrative shortcuts like having big moments off panel or cropped so that the focus is too tight and without drama.
But I digress.
"I think its even worse that [snip] Larocca [is a]l really good artists who have taken to tracing and using famous faces to speed up the process."
YES. THIS. Larocca's run on Namor, as dopey as the story was at times, was one of the most gorgeously illustrated comics I own. But man, his Invincible Iron Man phototracing stinks so bad I can't even read it.

Reviews for Operation Nightwatch Portland
I used to live in my car with my dog Kosmo in Portland. Nightwatch was a place for me to get a little hope and a little less fear. Now I'm thinking about volunteering.

How would you describe the help you got from this organization?

How do you feel you were treated by this organization?
Very Well
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
Nightwatch is wonderful. I've been coming for three years now, and am an active member in the homeless community, both as a guest and as a volunteer. Nightwatch gives me a place to socialize with friends who sleep outside, as well as make new ones who do not. I enjoy the fact that I can come here, be myself, and accepted as that person, even on my bad days. I can talk to people whose concerns are not 'where shall I sleep tonight?' or 'Which line will I stand in to eat?'
Gary is a wonderful organizer, and has the interests of the guests of Nightwatch in mind with every decision he makes. The volunteers are wonderful, and many have been coming for far longer than I have.

I have a second gallery on my website (gallery2 and gallery). I want the second one to post images at 65x65 because I have that set up in my theme. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it use that image. I can get it to make the full size image be down to 65x65 but not the actual 65x65 images.
I need this because specific posts would be more beneficial with this new gallery.
Any ideas on what I need to change in the media.php file?
(I do have pretty good knowledge of php)

GSD Course Bulletin - Fall 2010
This term's information was last refreshed on 08 MAY 2015 15:47:51.
Courses taught by Andreas Georgoulias
05333: Sustainable New Cities (SES 0533300)
Seminar - 4 credits - Limited enrollment
Thursday 10:00 - 1:00 Gund 510
Spiro Pollalis, Andreas Georgoulias, Wooyoung Kimm
Course Description
This course will examine the new city project from the lens of design, business, and sustainability. Based on examples of the recent past and drawing upon substantial original material from very recent new city projects worldwide, students will be exposed in analytical tools and approaches that exist only at this scale. Design will be viewed both at the individual building level, as iconic, non-iconic, and a typology for repetition, and also at the planning, urban design, and infrastructure levels. Business analytics and planning will start from defining the value proposition of the new city project, to issues of forecasting demand and complex return modeling. The sustainability perspective will be the centerpiece of the course, the axis that all reports, tools, and methods will be compared to. Sustainability at the new city project will be twofold: one side would examine the environmental, social, and economic aspects of the new city project; the other side would examine the sustainability of the actual project team, making sure that the organization doesn't fail before it starts. Information technology will push the feasibility frontier, will be the enabler for efficiency and effectiveness.The course will be structured in two parts. The first one will start by reviewing the need for new cities, both as a response to rapid urbanization at the developing world, and as an urge to renew the existing urban model. As such, the first part of the course will be both projective and speculative in nature, and it will be covered with lectures and discussions. The class will enter the new city project through several case studies on real projects. Examples from the US and internationally will be reviewed, and guest speakers representing firms involved in the projects will supplement the perspectives discussed in the classroom.The second part of the course will simulate a new city project in the Middle East, where students will be provided substantial proprietary and unpublished material on a real new city project. At the scale of tens of billions total capital cost, the identity of the project will have to be disguised for reasons of confidentiality. However all planning, design, and business consulting reports and financial spreadsheets will be made available. Students will work in small teams, their purpose being to review the material created by the actual project organization, and propose solutions on how to make the new city project sustainable. The course will review design and business decisions at multiple scales. Building projects can be small, medium, and large - however, the real immensity of scale in regards to design powers comes with the new city project. A new city will always be the maximum of the human experiment when it comes to the built space. A new city project is beyond extra-large, and as such its fascinating, promising, hopeful, and very expensive. Mistakes on such a scale can rarely be undone.Plagued by several failed or underperforming examples, new city projects strive to prove that the urbanization process, which normally takes decades, can be simulated, planned, designed, and delivered by a single owner and a design team. Single ownership of a project, as elusive as it can be to conceive at the city scale, provides several benefits of integration and optimization of buildings, systems, nature, and social groups. Large-scale innovation scrapping century-old assumptions, together with replication of the most successful urban environments that exist globally, are all possible at the new city project.The extent and variety of successful outcomes at the new city project attract agents and stakeholders that normally would not be involved, sometimes not even interested, in built projects. Seeing a case in point for "economies of scale", multinational corporations in manufacturing, commodities, energy, IT, finance, etc join forces with architects and plann
07411: Design and Development: from Concept to Implementation (PRO 0741100)
Lecture - 4 credits
Monday Wednesday 11:30 - 1:00 Gund 318
Andreas Georgoulias
Course Description
Please note that the course will meet in room 109 for the first session on Wednesday, September 8This course examines the real estate design and development process, from the first idea and the original conceptual sketch to the creation of building and infrastructure assets. During this complex but fascinating process, the designer is placed within a system of other agencies, each one having specific roles, expertise and capabilities but sometimes different incentives and goals. The course provides students with a thorough understanding of the role of each entity and describes how risks and rewards are created and distributed amongst people and organizations. Centering on the needs of the developer-owner, this year's topics include: - Strategies for successful design implementation;- Selection of the architect, consultants and contractors;- Overview and selection of the appropriate project delivery method;- When and how designers should invest in the projects they design;- Working in mega-projects spanning multiple countries;- Understanding project and firm risks and handling uncertainty;~ Assessing and implementing sustainability requirements and technological innovations.Case studies provide the framework for the course, and the case studies together with lectures, guest speakers, and the assigned readings constitute the basis for class discussions. Students are expected to prepare the assigned case study before each session and argue effectively about their analysis in class. During the course, students will build specific skills on negotiations, budgeting, scheduling, and financial return calculations through short assignments and in-class simulations. A final paper will bring together all topics presented throughout the semester. There are no prerequisites, however some professional experience would be advantageous. The course welcomes students with non-design backgrounds and expertise.

Howdy Kids! A Saturday Afternoon Western Roundup is a collection oftelevision westerns from the 1950s. Fourteen different programs are representedhere, including The Lone Ranger, The Ranger Rider, The Roy Rogers Show and SkyKing. I am too young to have caught these programs when they first aired,but when I was growing up the UHF channels would mostly play re-runs of oldshows, including lots of old westerns on the weekends. I have to admit Iusually switched to the monster movies, the Creature Double Feature on Channel56, and so didn�t catch a lot of these shows. But even though I missed these shows as a child, I enjoyed watching them as an adult.
Mostly, they�re whatyou�d expect. That is to say, there are lots of stage coaches being held up,lots of gun play and fist fights, lots of ex-crooks who have decided to go straightafter serving their time, and lots of honest people refusing to sell their landor businesses. There is also plenty of great horse-riding and fantasticlandscapes. And, interestingly, lots of narration at the beginning of episodes.But some of these shows were surprising. Most of the shows are in gloriousblack and white, though a couple on the third disc (The Cisco Kid, SergeantPreston Of The Yukon) are in color. Some of these shows are seriously good;others are not so good. There are two episodes of most of the programs, thougha few have just one. Each episode is just under a half hour.
Here is a rundown of theshows included in this three-disc set in the order in which they�re presented.
The Lone Ranger � This isstill probably the most well-known of the television westerns, with its famousopening music and that shout of �Hi ho,Silver.� The program stars Clayton Moore as The Lone Ranger and JaySilverheels as Tonto. The opening narration description of the Lone Rangerincludes the line, �He was a fabulousindividual� (which makes me smile). There are two episodes. The first, �TheRenegade,� has The Lone Ranger and Tonto splitting up after Tonto receives asmoke signal. But the Lone Ranger learns that any Indian found off his reservationwill be arrested as a renegade, due to supply trains being raided. There is somenarration throughout, and a lot of explanation as dialogue at the end, which isweak. But it�s still a fun show. The second episode, �Six Gun�s Legacy,� beginswith a raid on a stage coach. One of the bandits looks like the man they shot,and he takes the dead man�s place in order to claim his legacy. However, theman they shot, Bob Walker, still breathes, and the Lone Ranger and Tonto findhim. The Lone Ranger does some more explanatory dialogue at end.
The Range Rider - This is one of my favorite programs in thiscollection. It�s one of the most believable and enjoyable shows, and featuressome good performances. Plus, it has that opening song, �Home On The Range.� It stars Jack Mahoney as The Ranger Rider and DickJones as Dick West. You can overlook the silly voice over at the beginningessentially selling you on the show � �TheRange Rider with his thrilling adventures of the great outdoors�And Dick West,all-American boy.� There are two episodes. The first, �Convict At Large,� beginswith three men robbing a stage coach. One of the robbers recognizes the driverof the stage coach as a man he�d done time with (and who has since gone straight).The people, eager to blame someone for the robberies, go after him, causing himto run. The Range Rider and Dick West soon help him, and the sheriff thinksthey�re outlaws too. The second episode, �Bullets And Badmen,� features a groupof criminals, the leader in need of a doctor, having been shot. Meanwhile The RangeRider and Dick ride into town, Dick in need of a dentist he�s reluctant tovisit (I totally understand). They run into a friend who�s been shot, so theygo looking for the doctor, and of course meet the criminals.
The Rifleman � This isanother excellent show, starring Chuck Connors as Lucas McCain and JohnnyCrawford as Mark McCain. Sadly, there is only one episode of this programincluded. In �Day Of The Hunter,� a man named Cass Callicott (John Anderson) comesto town to challenge Lucas, saying that he, not Lucas, is the best rifleman.He�s a legend whose reputation is all he has left, so Lucas doesn�t want tocompete with him. But there�s actually a lot more going on in this episode; ithas a lot to say. Chuck Connors is good, and even the boy is really good inthis one.
The Adventures Of Rick O�Shay� This show is possibly the worst in the collection, but fortunately there is justone episode. It stars Steve Keyes as Rick, Bob Gilbert as Pawnee and EwingBrown as Gopher. In �Stagecoach To Danger� two women, including the governor�sdaughter, are traveling by stagecoach and want an escort. A villain interceptsthe message. The bad guys tell Gopher (who is acting as the escort) that theygot a message from the governor saying he wants them to pull a fake stage coachrobbery and kidnaping to give his daughter and niece a little excitement. Inaddition to that ridiculously dumb plot point, there are awkwardly staged andpoorly shot scenes and some bad acting. There is lots of fighting, but whocares?
Fury � This is a rathersilly show starring Peter Graves as Jim Newton and Robert Diamond as Joey.There are two episodes of this program. The opening narration tells us �There was only one Fury. Fury, king of thewild stallions.� Fury obeys the voice of Joey, the boy who once saved hislife (this is also explained in the opening voice over). The voice over evenintroduces Joey�s school teacher (who doesn�t actually appear in eitherepisode). Peter Graves is Jim, who seems to be Joey�s father, except that Joeycalls him �Mr. Jim� rather than �Dad.� (And of course I can�t help but think ofAirplane, especially as that boy was named Joeytoo.) In the first episode, �Killer Stallion,� a wild stallion is raiding aranch, and those folks think it�s Fury. Fury leaps his fence at night to goplay with another horse. That white horse goes and frees Mr. Stevens� horses.Yes, this is more than a bit silly. But the footage of the horses is great, andthe two horses eventually fight. The second episode, �Scorched Earth,� has astrong anti-forest fire message. Seriously, this is like a filmstrip they�dshow in school in the fifties. There is even an insert shot of a Smokey Bearmembership card. Joey is appointed a junior ranger, and after he reads somerules, he exclaims, �Gosh, that makes youfeel good inside.� And the ranger encourages Joey to share the informationwith his friends at school. Joey becomes an instant zealot, even lecturing hishorse on how to put out a fire. The fire footage is actually pretty good,though a station ranger has magic binoculars.
The Roy Rogers Show � Thisis a totally enjoyable show starring Roy Rogers, Dale Evans and the horseTrigger. The end credits song is �Happy Trails.� This set includes twoepisodes. In the first, �Bad Neighbors,� Roy sees two men shoot at Granny, andhe fights them. Granny fell and rolled down the hill, and she tells Roy, �It was easier than walking, and I madebetter time.� Everyone thinks the men are after her furs, but they�reactually after her property. In the second episode, �The Setup,� trouble isbrewing between the homesteaders and the ranchers. Roy, Dale and Pat find awounded man, Frank Stewart. A homesteader had his house burned down, so folksare on edge. Apart from some silliness regarding wallpaper, it�s a really goodepisode.
Annie Oakley � This isanother fun program, starring Gail Davis as Annie Oakley (she is beautiful),Jimmy Hawkins as Tagg, and Brad Johnson as Lofty. There are twoepisodes. In the first, �Sharpshooting Annie,� Annie is riding with some kindof carnival. Their stagecoach is held up by a gunman on a white horse. Themoney was to go to charity. Annie suspects someone connected to the show is involved.In �Outlaw Brand,� Tagg and his friend are making money to go to the countryfair. John�s uncle Joe does some quick shooting to protect Tagg from arattlesnake, which surprises everyone, as they all thought he knew nothingabout guns. Johnny and Tagg clean out Joe�s attic to sell to an antique dealerso they can go to the fair. Johnny finds guns and old newspaper articles, soclearly Uncle Joe is hiding something. This is a really good episode.
The Adventures Of Kit Carson - This show stars Bill Williams and DonDiamond. In the first episode, �Thunder Over Inyo,� Kit is sent to check out agold strike. There is something that is really funny because of the edit. Kitrids toward the camera, and we hear some sort of shout from off screen. But hishorse�s mouth moves exactly in time to the voices, making it seem like thehorse is shouting. I watched it four times. But generally I�m less interestedin this show than others. In the second episode, �The Desperate Sheriff,� Kit�sfriend is the new sheriff, and has caught a criminal he needs help holding onto.
The Adventures Of Champion - This was a show I was completely unfamiliarwith, and totally love. It stars Barry Curtis as Ricky and Jim Bannon as Sandy,and features Champion, the wonder horse. There are two episodes. In �Hangman�sNoose� a man discovers oil on Holt�s property. Holt is not known as thefriendliest person, so the man has little trouble setting him up on a murdercharge in his efforts to secure the oil for himself. This has the most interestingstory, which is surprising considering that the show�s star is supposed to be ahorse. In �Bad Men Of The Valley� a couple has bought the Benson ranch, and willbe Ricky�s new neighbors. Meanwhile, some men shoot a marshal, and Championleads Ricky and Sandy to the body. The bad guys hide in a place on the oldBenson property, and meet that new couple, one of whom has a shady past. Myfavorite line: �I tried going straighttwo or three times myself once.�
The Cisco Kid - This is a really bad show, due in part tothe two leads (Duncan Renaldo as Cisco, and Leo Carrillo as Pancho), who arepretty weak. Their interactions are goofy, but the show overall is just awful.There are two episodes. In �Freight Line Feud,� a man�s gambling debts lead tomore trouble for Western Freighting Company. Cisco and Pancho arrive to help. Inthe background of an action scene, you can see a random rider. In �Ghost Town,�Cisco Kid and Pancho are chased by three men into some weird territory. The menwon�t follow them there. The Cisco Kid and Pancho run out of water, but find awoman. She delivers some awful dialogue, then leads them to a ghost town. Geez,she�s terrible.
Sergeant Preston Of The Yukon - Thisshow, based on a radio drama and starring Richard Simmons, is definitely a bitdifferent from the others, though it still has narration at the beginning (�with his wonder dog, Yukon King� - allanimals are �wonder� animals in westerns). The beginning also includes a simplemap for those who don�t know where the Yukon is. In the first episode, �CrimeAt Wounded Moose,� masked criminals terrorize the area. After they rob a bank,a town meeting is called, and Sergeant Yukon, a Mountie, is sent for to help. Aman with a criminal past is suspected to be the leader. The bad guys meet in acabin, and for some reason they still wear their hoods. Halfway through theepisode, the narrator explains what�s happening. In �Trapped,� a new couple,with no experience in trapping, arrives in the area. There is also a thiefabout. And there�s this bit of narration: �Beinga woman, Eileen, knew cotton stretches when wet. The greasiness of the stewalso helped release her.�
Sky King � This is one ofthe best and most enjoyable shows in this set. It stars Kirby Grant as SkyKing, Gloria Winters as Penny, James Dobson as Joe and Jacqueline Ravell asFrances. There is only one episode of this show. Titled �Bullet Bait,� it openswith two guys hijacking a truck. Meanwhile Joe is late for his own wedding,having run out of gas. Joe comes upon the hijackers, and is forced to helpunload the truck. He escapes, so the two men stake out the wedding, waiting forJoe to show up. Joe sends his bride a letter telling her her life is in danger.She shows it to Sky, who flies to the lake where the letter was sent from. Skyand Penny find Joe almost immediately. The bad guys find him too.
Red Ryder � This show stars Jim Bannon as Red Ryder,Jean Dean as Lindy, and Lyle Talbot as Martin. There is only one episode. Titled�Whiplash,� it begins with Red Ryder finishing his part of a roundup. But theother ranchers want Red to be in charge the rest of the way. And of course,there�s trouble. This episode features a whip fight between two men. Check outthe school in the background of the last shot � clearly just a flat.
Buffalo Bill, Jr. � Thisis one of the weaker shows in the collection. It stars Dick Jones as BuffaloBill, Jr.; Nancy Gilbert as Calamity, his little sister; and Harry Cheshire asJudge Ben Wiley. There are two episodes. In the first, �Blazing Guns,� banditshave been robbing folks regularly, and people are unsure how the bandits aregetting their information. In �Legacy Of Jesse James� some men are after atreasure chest buried by Jesse James. This episode messy, with lots ofexposition and flashbacks. It seems like the second part of a two-part episode.
There are no specialfeatures in this collection. Episodes are not divided into DVD chapters, butrather each episode is a single chapter. HowdyKids! A Saturday Afternoon Western Roundup is scheduled to be released onApril 9, 2013 through Shout! Factory.

The effect of surgically ligating the deep cerebral veins is often thought to be of significant risk. That concern and the paucity of information on surgery of the deep venous system confound surgical decision making when operations involve manipulation of the deep cerebral veins.
The authors review the human and animal literature on the selective sacrifice of the deep cerebral veins. Robust experimental studies and limited clinical experience indicate that occlusion of one or several deep cerebral veins is generally safe.

I am the owner of Knitspot - knitting patterns, clubs, and artisan yarns. I am a life-long knitter with a background in the fashion and graphic design fields, and began designing clothing, knitwear and accessories during the 1970s. I teach and write about knitting, spinning, and designing at my blog, Knitspot. I live and work in Ohio with David, who loves wool, too.
My design work/profile has been included in Knitty, The Knitter, Interweave Knits, and Twist Collective, Sock Club, Brave New Knits, as well as several upcoming publications. The complete catalog of Knitspot patterns is available for browsing and purchasing at http://www.knitspot.com/knitting_pattern/index.php
Knitspot yarn clubs are reknowned for perfect pairings of luxury yarn and design, as well as the rollicking good fun in our Ravelry clubhouse where members meet, chat, and knit through club projects together.
Our Bare Naked yarns are as close to the farm as a knitter can get, using fresh fiber produce from regional growers which is then spun into yarn at smaller artisan mills with which I have worked over the years. The collection is focused on single-breed pure wool yarns and exotic blends, with colors that range an entire array of natural tones—yarn the way nature made it.
A light rectangle scarf or wrap in two sizes (petite, tall) featuring an easy-to-work stitch pattern with a rolling cadence. Garment is knit in two pieces and grafted at center back for symmetry. Works well with rustic or handspun yarns and tonal variegated colorways. Knit in a repeating allover motif that is easily learned, this piece works up quickly, travels well, and can be resized by adding/subtracting repeats or worked in a different gauge by changing yarn weight and needles.

My care has now been transferred to a different hospital that has better cardiac paeds and surgeons, so I met with the new mw a couple of wks ago, and will meet with the obs for the first time on Mon and for a scan also. The mw I met with said as far as she is concerned she is happy to let me go into labour naturally, despite me telling her that the last 2 babies were 4/5 hrs from start to finish labour time, and the last bit was really fast, and as this is my 4th baby Im a bit scared with her heart condition (tetralogy of fallet) that something could go wrong, also worried as my babies have all been late and Im concerned about probs with the placenta and stillbirth if i go longer.
Im in the UK here so I know you lot wont have had experience with hospitals in the UK, but should I be pushing for induction?? The practical issue is also that i have 3 children who need looking after, and my sil is willing to come and stay to look after them,but lives in Germany so needs to make arrangements, book flights etc, Im just wondering how much they would take that into account?? (again, not that you lot would know, LOL!!!)
Would appreciate any advise or things to mention if they dont seem bothered by any of those factors, and if your obs was that way were you able to persuade them otherwise?

Council no closer to resolution on Riverwood sale; a tale of two meetings
- Details
- Last Updated on Wednesday, 24 December 2008 19:26

Related Apartment Preservation (RAP) is the entity that is trying to purchase The Riverwood Housing Development, a federally subsidized housing development that must remain as such until 2036 due to the Deed of Trust. Related began the process of contacting the Town and seeking their approval of the project as far back as July. Initially, Related contacted the Town for its approval because of the mode of financing they are trying to use – state issued tax exempt bonds. To use this form of financing, the purchasers must have "the blessing" of the Town Council. According to Related's representative, Richard Hurlbert, this is the way their company prefers to do business; this way the community is kept in the loop and the purchaser is aware of any concerns that the community has with the property. However, perhaps there has been a misunderstanding on the Town Council concerning the necessity of their blessing.
In a bold move last Wednesday by Colonial Beach Town Council three resolutions regarding Riverwood Apartments in Colonial Beach were put in a state of suspended animation.
After the meeting was called to order; Mayor Rummage made a motion to approve the first Resolution 89-08. When no one came forward to second the motion, the Mayor called a ten minute recess. Then Rummage walked into the back room.
While some members of Council sat thumbing through papers, others sat back in their chairs waiting. After roughly two minutes Rummage returned to his chair. A few more moments of awkward silence followed, then Vice Mayor Trish King asked the Mayor if they could come out of recess.
Rummage asked, "What is the purpose of coming back into session at this point?"
To which King responded, "So we can move on with the agenda for this evening."
Mayor Rummage said, "Well, we tried 89-08 and we didn't get it before us, shall we try 93-08? Do I hear a motion?"
Vice Mayor Trish King responded, "I'll make a motion for 93-08."
Rummage called for a second. A second was heard. Council member Sparky Ridgely asked for clarification on the motion asking, "Is this to accept it?" One member said, "No this is to put it on the table."
To which Rummage replied, "No no this is for acceptance." The original second was withdrawn.
Mayor Rummage announced, "93-08 is not before us therefore it can not be discussed."
There was discussion as to whether the resolutions had failed. Town Attorney Erard stated that no action had been taken. Mayor Rummage said, "It's a continuing resolution… It can be brought up at anytime… I would guess that it would be the parliamentary recommendation."
That took care of two of the motions regarding Riverwood.
Then King began to make a motion on the last resolution but was cut off in mid sentence by the Mayor, clarifying that it was a motion to approve. When no second was heard Mayor Rummage adjourned the meeting.
That took care of all three motions regarding Riverwood.
The meeting was a continuation of a public hearing held over from a rainy Thursday December 10th. At the beginning of that meeting, tokens of gratitude where handed out to citizens giving much of the public attendees reason to leave early.
The hearing on Riverwood heard no opposition nor support from residents but a heated discussion ensued between members of council and Mayor Rummage leaving Richard Hurlbert Jr. attorney for Related Apartment Preservation LLC standing at the podium for over an hour.
For several months Related Apartment Preservation LLC has been under contract to purchase Riverwood apartment from the current owners Riverwood Limited Partnership and have been negotiating with the Town Council.
The prospective buyer (Related Apartment Preservation LLC) is seeking to acquire a $4,200,000.00 bond from Harrisonburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority for the purpose of purchasing and improving Riverwood Apartments. In order to be approved for the Bond the Colonial Beach Town Council must adopt a resolution Res. #88-08 declaring the need for a Bond to be issued and their approval.
Although the Bond would not require repayment, the Council members have many concerns about the three resolutions pertaining to Riverwood.
At the core of the matter is resolution #93-08 which comprises an agreement between the town and the current owners of Riverwood apartments to provide greater access to the property by Colonial Beach Police and provisions for the current owners to pay a salary of $40,000.00 for an officer to patrol the premises.
The agreement is for a period of 3 years and would be carried over to the Prospective buyers. Members of the council are finding it difficult make a decision that would only temporarily handle the situation and result in a new problem for the Council in three years.
During these discussions some have mistaken the scope of Beach Police powers over the 83-unit complex. Mayor Rummage had expressed in the December 10th meeting his concerns that if the Resolution did not pass, Riverwood would become a "Federal Island". Some members seemed worried that C.B. Police would not be able to enforce the law. "The Resolution would only make access easier in certain situations but is not needed for Beach police to carry out their lawful duties." states Councilman Ridgely.
The third and last resolution involved is #89-08 which sets out an agreement that ensures that certain improvements will be conducted by the new owners as well as various actions that would call for a "zero tolerance" policy to be enforced with respect to criminal conduct and unlawful behavior by tenants.
According to Vice Mayor Trish King, many of the improvements outlined by the prospective buyer are already required by law from the HUD manual.
The big argument during the December 10th meeting was, "These agreements have "no teeth" with no legal recourse."
Hurlbert, the attorney for the prospective buyers, argues that these Resolutions are binding contracts and the Town has legal recourse through the laws concerning Breach of Contract.
Councilman Sparky Ridgely stated he doesn't want to enter into a contract on the basis that they would have to seek legal action through the court that would take time and tax payers' money.
Ridgely's concerns echo that of other members of council by saying, "they were assured certain security improvements to the tune of $18,000.00 per unit by the prospective buyers only to be told later that those improvements where contingent on the buildings being "sound", that they didn't have to make any major improvements."
After the meeting Mayor Rummage had this to say, "We have a number of people here that just absolutely, I think, it's not that they don't want to do anything for Riverwood, I think they're very upset that we have a disproportionate amount of subsidized housing in this town. But they're here and that's a problem and we should address that. I've got a number of people who have contacted me who live out there who are really looking forward to having a change. And we could have made a difference with these resolutions. But now we'll have to use a different approach." Rummage is particularly concerned about the elderly residents of Riverwood.
When asked if the failure of these resolutions could lead to displacement of any residents, he assured The Journal that the residents have no reason to worry about that. Rummage is confident that the sale of Riverwood will go through. He reassured that if the sale did not go through and the current owners abandoned the property, HUD would take over but Rummage does not see any evidence of that happening.
When asked if the resolutions were still on the table or if they were null and void, Mayor Rummage responded, "They could be reconsidered. Right now they are null and void. See, in order to get any one of them before the council there has to be a motion and a second then that brings it before us. Then we debate it, discuss it, then we either defeat it or pass it."
By this response and the Mayor's insistence during the meeting for motions "to pass" the resolutions, it brings up the question of whether or not there was a procedural misunderstanding between the Mayor and members of council.

I spent a lot of time researching doctors to choose one who had the same ideas and feelings about L&D as I do and I feel extremely comfortable with the doctor I chose. Today I got a letter stating my doctor will be on vacation from Feb 9-18. My due date is smack in the middle of that week. I am EXTREMELY upset because the three doctors who are covering her are NOT on the same page as I am when it comes to L&D and all of them are men and I really wanted a female doctor to deliver my baby. I'm almost 8m pregnant and at this point I can't change providers. No idea what to do. I'm so upset, I can't even put it into words.
So upset with my OB GYN

Yikes, she didn't give you any warning until now?? I would sit down and talk with her at your next appt. and discuss your concerns. Are you absolutely sure the back ups are on a different page? Honestly, as much as you like your doctor, I think I would want to see the OB's that are going to be covering for her for some of your apppointments too so that if they are the ones to deliver you they aren't complete strangers.

That sucks. But even if she weren't on vacation, there's always a chance you'll get someone other than your normal provider due to call schedules, illness, family emergency etc. And since you are in the hospital for more than a day, you'd likely at least get checked on by another doctor in the clinic no matter what. Try to meet with a couple of the other doctors and discuss your concerns and birth plan. I've had the luck of having my doctor be out on vacation on my scheduled due date not once but BOTH times.
Are you a FTM? If so, there's a good-ish chance you'll still be preggo when yours gets back, as long as you don't get your membranes swept/stripped. How stressful though - best of luck. I hope it all works out.
My doctor actually DOES go in for her patients in the middle of the night even if she's not on call. One of the many reasons I chose her as my doctor.
Two friends of mine have had the other office take care of them during pregnancy and both had very negative experiences. And who would I meet for the appointments? There are four doctors in the other office.
Ultimately what it comes down to is that I went through two miscarriages with this doctor and really like her bedside manner. Even if I deliver early or late, I don't want to have the stress of thinking my due date is right in the middle of her vacation week. I would have looked somewhere else MONTHS ago if I had known this was a possibility.

Foreign travel advice
Central African Republic
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) advise against all travel to the Central African Republic (CAR).
British nationals who remain or visit against our advice should be aware that the FCO is not able to provide consular services nor organise or assist your evacuation from the country. If the situation deteriorates further, leaving the country by commercial means will become increasingly difficult. Flights out of Bangui are limited. See Local Travel.
Elections are currently taking place which may lead to an increase in tensions.
There is no British Embassy in the CAR. There is an Honorary Consul in Bangui, but given the current security situation he is not able to offer consular assistance. See Consular assistance
Tensions are high in Bangui and across the country. There are armed patrols that have set up several roadblocks across the country. Reports of violence, reprisal killings, looting and human rights abuses continue across the country.
Since January 2015, there have been a number of kidnappings of government ministers and humanitarian and UN workers.
In September 2015 there was a further increase in inter-ethnic violence, particularly in Bangui and Bambari.
There is an underlying threat from terrorism. See Terrorism

Keppra Injection
(levetiracetam) for Intravenous Administration
KEPPRA injection is an antiepileptic drug available as a clear, colorless, sterile solution (100 mg/mL) for intravenous administration.
The chemical name of levetiracetam, a single enantiomer, is (-)-(S)-α-ethyl-2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetamide, its molecular formula is C8H14N2O2 and its molecular weight is 170.21. Levetiracetam is chemically unrelated to existing antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). It has the following structural formula:
Levetiracetam is a white to off-white crystalline powder with a faint odor and a bitter taste. It is very soluble in water (104.0 g/100 mL). It is freely soluble in chloroform (65.3g/100 mL) and in methanol (53.6 g/100 mL), soluble in ethanol (16.5 g/100 mL), sparingly soluble in acetonitrile (5.7 g/100 mL) and practically insoluble in n-hexane. (Solubility limits are expressed as g/100 mL solvent.)
KEPPRA injection contains 100 mg of levetiracetam per mL. It is supplied in single-use 5 mL vials containing 500 mg levetiracetam, water for injection, 45 mg sodium chloride, and buffered at approximately pH 5.5 with glacial acetic acid and 8.2 mg sodium acetate trihydrate. KEPPRA injection must be diluted prior to intravenous infusion [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

You can buy individual 12x12 pages (or other sizes) from HM but you can't print them where you want. You have to order them and they get shipped from HM. I know there are a couple of Heritage Makers sales people (it's a multi-level marketing program - like Creative Memories) that post on the threads here, so I'm sure one of them will come and give you more details or post their website for you to buy from them.
What I would do is get someone who sells HM to offer you a couple of free 12x12 pages to try. They get credits from the company that they can pass on to their clients. Then log in, try it out, and use those credits to order the 12x12 page and see if you like it.
Don't give up on PS. There are lots of tutorials available and lots of support from the forums at the different SB shops. Later, when you have more time, PS will allow you to be so much more creative and you can save money by printing your own pages where you want to. For example, I print at Costco.
Whatever you choose - have fun!!

Congrats on the new baby! Yes, ITA that digi is the way to go especially if you have limited time/money/space/energy. And if someone has extra of any of those, can you share? LOL
I haven't used CM or HM so I don't know about printing. But if you are looking for something easy to use, I lik eACDSee Photo Editor. Ther eare "built in" templates that yoiu can use. Or you can use any layered template that you would use in Photoshop. I have made pages thatway and then either printed them at home on my photo printer (8x8) or had them done at artscow.com
Good luck with whatever you do!
ACDSee is supposed to be an awesome file organizer, too. So I've heard, anyway...

The purpose of this report is to bring up to date available information on the defining features and diagnostic issues relating to autism and related disorders. We review the validity of the syndrome based on our last review (Rutter, 1978; Schopler, 1978). Subsequent data have produced refinement in our understanding of both diagnostic criteria and the nature of the basic deficit. Controversies over both the boundaries and the heterogeneity within the autism syndrome are evaluated according to available evidence. Diagnostic rating instruments for expediting systematic sample selection are critiqued, and leads for new research directions are suggested.

Now that the weather is transitioning into fall, shad are moving out of the open water and into coves - especially coves with creeks. I like to fish docks this time of year because bass will gang up under them and pick off bigger shad and other prey fish such as bluegills that feed on the smaller young-of-the-year shad. This is especially true of some of the older, deeper highland lakes where there isn't a lot of good cover except for docks and other manmade cover. A swimming jig is a good go-to bait, but you've got to be able to skip it as far under the dock as you can. I've taught myself how to skip a bait with kind of an underhand pitch. I use a medium-heavy, 7-foot, 3-inch rod with a tip that's got some flex to it to help skip the bait.
I usually avoid the docks that are in the main lake or over really deep water - over 20 feet or so - just because the shad seem to favor the flats and shallower water. Start looking for bass at the docks on the lower ends of the coves and creek mouths, then move up as the weather gets cooler. You might find fish of any size anywhere on a dock, but the better ones seem to follow a seasonal progression up the cove. When I'm not skipping the jig, I'm casting a square-bill crankbait to the corners of a dock or the areas between docks. Swimming jigs and square-bills are a good combination for fall dock-fishing.

Is this March or what? This crazy mixed up weather we have had lately makes it seem like March. One day it is cold and dreary, then warm with severe tornados in some areas. I am so thankful we have escaped the storms thus far.
Joshua Porter and his mother, Marie Colasanti, have fun making bowls in support of the upcoming first "Empty Bowls" fundraiser from 4 to 7 p.m. Feb. 11 for Warm Blessing Soup Kitchen, 609 E. Dixie Ave in Elizabethtown.
