Phone messages from SIL, MIL and FIL all in one week got me thinking, so I'm throwing it out to y'all.
For the past 3.5 yrs of our marriage, I've just let DH handle his family for the most part, particularly when it comes to phone messages from them. He's always been standoffish with them, that's the precedent he set long before I was in the picture, so I've followed his lead. He doesn't hate them, he's just very independent, runs his own life, and is slightly introverted. His parents aren't toxic, but they can be overbearing and boundary-less. The more you let them in, the more annoying they can be. Also, he has three other brothers, all married with kids. Two of them are pretty needy (as in umbilical cord still attached) and take $ and other things from the ILs. We're not and we don't.
Since last fall, I'm at home much of the time, but I screen calls. I do talk to MIL now and then about the pregnancy and whatnot, and we see them at holidays, etc. I made the mistake of telling MIL that DH wasn't feeling well last week and had a sore throat, which of course set off her fears about swine flu @@. Well, she called earlier this week and left a message to "see how he was feeling." Nice, but, we'd call them if it was something serious.
FIL calls a couple times a week and leaves messages, but never says what he wants (my pet peeve - if you're gonna leave a message, say what you want! If you just want to chat, say that; if you need something specific, say that!).
Then, one of our 2 strange SILs called. She lives on the other side of the country, but has a reputation for getting you on the phone and NEVER getting off. She passes the phone around to all the little kids, some who can't even talk yet. DH always spends no less than 2 hrs on the phone with her and the kids when she catches him. Apparently, she uses the phone as a babysitter, somewhat.
So, needless to say, unless we happen to answer the phone when these folks are calling, he rarely returns their calls.
Should I make more of an effort to call them back myself? I have no desire to get on the phone several times a week just chatting with them. I've got a life. Should I worry about this reflecting badly on me? Should I make more of an effort to get him to call them back?
Personally, I don't think so. They're his parents, if he doesn't want to call them, it's his deal.
Anyone else deal with this sort of thing?

Is it possible to create a template function that takes a variable number of arguments, for example, in this
Vector< T, C > class constructor:
template < typename T, uint C >
Vector< T, C >::Vector( T, ... )
va_list arg_list;
va_start( arg_list, C );
for( uint i = 0; i < C; i++ ) {
m_data[ i ] = va_arg( arg_list, T );
va_end( arg_list );
This almost works, but if someone calls
Vector< double, 3 >( 1, 1, 1 ), only the first argument has the correct value. I suspect that the first parameter is correct because it is cast to a
double during the function call, and that the others are interpreted as
ints and then the bits are stuffed into a
double. Calling
Vector< double, 3 >( 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ) gives the desired results. Is there a preferred way to do something like this?

What it's REALLY like to be a NASA astronaut living in space for a year
Published 12:37 pm, Monday, January 25, 2016
What's it like to not walk on solid ground for a year?
That's one of the questions NASA astronaut Scott Kelly and companion Russian cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko have set out to answer during their year-long mission on board the International Space Station (ISS).
If the men succeed in their mission to discover how a long-term, low-gravity environment affects the human body, they'll be the first humans to ever spend a full year in zero gravity, which is twice as long as typical US missions. Their journey of more than 143 million miles is critical in preparing astronauts for future expeditions to Mars.
More from Business Insider
So far, Kelly and Kornienko have spent more than 300 continuous days aboard ISS, and Kelly shared some interesting observations so far during a Reddit AMA this weekend.
Here are some of the most interesting things the astronaut revealed about life aboard the International Space Station:
Space isn't as scary as you might think.

Florida and USF have postponed their 2015 football game, TampaBay.com has reported. A new date for the game is to be determined.
The game was part of a home-and-home series that was announced way back in 2002. The Gators and Bulls were initially scheduled to meet in 2008 and 2009 in Gainesville, but both games were later rescheduled.
The first game in the series wasn't played until 2010, a 38-14 win for the Gators. The second game was pushed back to 2011, then 2015 and now to an undetermined date.
USF's future schedules may see further tweaks with the addition of TCU to the Big East in 2012. The Bulls will be playing an additional conference game and may want to lessen the strength of their non-conference schedule. In 2015, USF hosts Florida A&M and travels to face Indiana.
Currently, the only non-conference game scheduled for Florida in 2015 is a home game against in-state rival Florida State.
Football Schedules:
Gators will only be 5-7 in 2011. They will never be the same and be as miserable as they were in the 70s
Have you lost your freaking mind? 5-7? LMFAO you are smoking some really good stuff. 9-3 or 8-5 at the worse!! GO GATORS!!
The Gators will be as miserable as they were in the 70's? The Gators are going to start averaging 5 wins a year? "Anonymous" apparently doesn't pay any attention to recruiting.. team may be down but program is not.
I believe the gators will have a good season. With the new coach the spirits of the team sould be amazing. It make take another year to be in the Championship but it will be a well worth it event. The gators don't let us down this year. This should be a fun season:) Love the GATOR's always a fan!
So, anyone know how well the Gators did in the 2011 season? I didn't watch much, did they go 9-3? Maybe even 10-2? Possible Championship next season! Lol
USF finished strong going 1-7 in their last 8 games. The Big East was highly competitive last year. I guarantee that USF will be playing for the BCSNC next year!! Bulls!!!
Note that the first game in the series was played in Gainesville . . . but the return trip (all the way down to Tampa, mind you) keeps getting put off. That way, UF can blame the SEC if the second game gets cancelled. "We'll have to play nine conference games, so SOMEbody had to get dropped," the Gators can say. Would anyone be surprised?

I just upgraded to 2.3.2 and then 2.3.3. With both versions I have this problem. I take a screen caputre with my mac and it's saved as something like "Picture 1.png". I write a blog post and use the image upload feature to upload that picture to put it in my post. It makes a thumbnail and everything just fine.
If I delete the Picture 1.png from my desktop and take another screen capture, the new image is also saved as "Picture 1.png". If I want to use that in a new blog post, and I repeat the process, it uploads and OVERWRITES THE PREVIOUS IMAGE. Thus, my earlier blog post has its image overwritten with the new one.
This was not happening with the old version of WordPress I was using. I've searched high and low for solutions, and even tried to find a way to adjust this in the code, but I've had no luck.
Can any tell me (1) how to fix this, or (2) where I can go in the code to do something like append a timestamp to the file names to work around this?

I just downloaded a theme which has a twitter widget built into the theme based on pownce but since the theme hasn't been updated to the new API for the twitter feed it doesn't feed to the site. I've tried contacting the creator but he doesn't deal with coding/designing anymore.
So i've been messing around with it but with no luck, either it spams errors or the site just doesn't load. I was wondering if anyone could help me?
I've uploaded the code to pastie if anyone can help me with this. If not no worries
Kind Regards

Being realistic about the sacrifices necessary in marriage has helped Garcia delineate between what is important and what isn't. "When you're young, you're so passionate and dramatic about everything," Garcia said. "You get lost in a petty argument over the fact that he didn't listen when you asked him to grab orange juice at the store."
Garcia and her husband try to focus on reasonable solutions, rather than letting the problem fester. "I'll say, 'Look, you keep forgetting this and it's really irritating me. What can we do to resolve this? Do you need me to text you on the way to the grocery story? What can I do?' "
Embrace conflict
"No two people in the world, no matter how made for each other they feel, will ever agree about everything at all times," Dr. Marie Hartwell-Walker, psychologist and marriage and family therapist in Massachusetts, wrote at PsychCentral. "It would be quite boring if they did."
Go after the issue, not each other, Hartwell-Walker wrote. Name-calling and "character assassination" create an added problem of hurt feelings. Defensiveness, too, can only escalate the fight.
Hartwell-Walker suggested finding points of agreement that help to gain common ground. Get curious, not defensive. Ask for more information, examples and details. There is usually a basis for a spouse's complaint. When complaint is equaled by curiosity, there is room for understanding, Hartwell-Walker wrote.
Other strategies include listening respectfully and talking softly. Listen, by acknowledging the feelings of the partner and showing focused attention and verbal assent, Hartwell-Walker wrote. Make concessions as well. Giving a little can make room for the other person to do the same. Finding a workable solution often involves a compromise that isn't always exactly 50/50. It's not about scorekeeping, Hartwell-Walker wrote. Finding a solution is often more important.
"Friendly fighting means working out differences that matter. It means engaging passionately about things we feel passionate about, without resorting to hurting one another," Hartwell-Walker wrote.
The status of a parental relationship — married, separated, divorced, etc. — is far less important than the quality of the relationship, Christine Carter, happiness expert at UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center and author of "Raising Happiness: 10 Simple Steps for More Joyful Kids and Happier Parents," wrote in an email to the Deseret News. "Conflict is the primary factor that determines relationship quality."
How you begin a conflict is important, Carter wrote on a blog for Greater Good. Start with an appreciation and an "I statement," such as "I appreciate how much time you are spending at work; I know you are putting in long hours for our family and I'm grateful for that. I want you to be able to relax at the end of the day. The problem is that I also want to relax; I felt angry and resentful tonight when you didn't help me clean up the kitchen."
The first three minutes of a conflict can determine how it will end — whether in suggested solutions, constructive resolutions or raging tempers released — in 96 percent of all cases, according to leading marriage and parent counselor, John Gottman.
Garcia and her husband don't see any harm in her children witnessing the squabbles between her and her husband. "That's reality," Garcia told the Deseret News. "If they can see mom and dad disagree, even while holding hands and then find a way to resolve it and be OK five minutes later, they will gain a more realistic and healthy view of marriage."
And they have, from what she has seen. Garcia often overhears her boys mimic phrases to one another during a conflict. "My older boy will say to his brother, 'You know what? Whatever. I need some space,'" Garcia said, laughing as she recalled saying the same thing to her husband the day before.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Nemat tells of her harrowing experience as a young Iranian girl at the start of the Islamic revolution. In January 1982, the 16-year-old student activist was arrested, jailed in Tehran's infamous Evin prison, tortured and sentenced to death. Ali, one of her interrogators, intervened moments before her execution, having used family connections with Ayatollah Khomeini himself to reduce her sentence to life in prison. The price: she would convert to Islam (she was Christian) and marry him, or he would see to it that her family and her boyfriend, Andre, were jailed or even killed. She remained a political prisoner for two years. Nemat's engaging memoir is rich with complex characters—loved ones lost on both sides of this bloody conflict. Ali, the man who rapes and subjugates her, also saves her life several times—he is assassinated by his own subordinates. His family embraces Nemat with more affection and acceptance than her own, even fighting for her release after his death. Nemat returns home to feel a stranger: "They were terrified of the pain and horror of my past," she writes. She buries her memories for years, eventually escaping to Canada to begin a new life with Andre. Nemat offers her arresting, heartbreaking story of forgiveness, hope and enduring love—a voice for the untold scores silenced by Iran's revolution. (May)

From Booklist
*Starred Review* In Tehran in the early 1980s, after she leads a strike in high school to get her math teacher to teach calculus not politics, Marina, 16, a practicing Catholic, is locked up for two years and tortured with her school friends in the Ayatollah Khomeini's notorious Evin political prison. She is saved from execution by an interrogator, Ali, who wants to marry her and threatens to hurt her family and Catholic boyfriend, Andre, if she refuses. Forced to convert to Islam, she becomes Ali's wife; then he is assassinated by political rivals, and she rejoins her family and marries Andre. They immigrate to Canada in 1991. For more than 20 years, secure in her middle-class life, she keeps silent, until she writes this unforgettable memoir. Haunted by her lost friends and by her betrayal of them, Nemat tells her story without messages and with no sense of heroism. The quiet, direct narrative moves back and forth from Toronto to Nemat's childhood under the shah's brutal regime and, later, during the terror under Khomeini. Despite the rabid politics and terrifying drama, the most memorable aspect of the story is the portrait of Ali, Nemat's savior, in love with her, so kind to her--Does he kill people when he goes off to work in the prison each day? Her comment that she wishes "the world were a simple place where people were either good or evil" is as haunting as her guilt and love. When she asks Andre to forgive her long silence, he asks her to forgive his not asking. Hazel Rochman

I popped it in anyway. From the first line, I was hooked. It starts "There is an ancient Persian proverb that says, "The sky is the same colour wherever you go." But the Canadian sky was different from the one I remembered from Iran, it was a deeper shade of blue and seemed endless, as if challenging the horizon".
Not only is this a sublimely poetic start to a gripping story; it matched my own experiences as immigrant to Canada from hazy Europe. From there on, I hung on the narrator's every word, as the story unfolds of terrible fear and pain in Tehran's notorious Evin prison, and the ultimate victory of decency. I have since bought the book at a dozen or more times, both in English and in German, and given it to friends and family.
After I finished listening I did something I had never done before. I wrote an email to the author and thanked her for the story. I didn't really expect a reply. At best, something along the lines of "Thanks for your kind words, Gabriel". But I was wrong. Ms. Nemat replied in detail to my comments. And from this, a beautiful friendship has evolved spanning two continents. Ms.Nemat's humility and warmth just blew me away.
On Amazon Germany, Prisoner of Tehran has 19 ratings as of November 2011, almost all top 5 stars.Read more ›
I had heard, a long time ago, that reading biographies is a good way to learn about history. Just to clarify that statement, I beleive they should be biographies about people that had a part in history. I don't normally read biographies about actors or athletes. I like to read biographies about people who made history or were a part of it.
That is why I liked this book. It is a real person. She lived through an expereince that I would wish on no one. It was part of history that we had not heard that too much of. There were few people who could.
The authour had two purposes in this novel. One is tell her story. We all have a story to tell. Some people have a better strory to tell, some can tell a story better. This author can do both. This is a story that needs to be told and we have a storyteller that can tell a story. So many people who try to tell their story, can't tell it properly. It is such a boon to the reader when both are achieved.
The other purpose is that the author had to tell this story. I don't know why talking about our bad experiences makes us feel better. The author needed to tell us her story for her own piece of mind. And for the hundreds of women that could not.
The story had what I expected, torture and executions. There were a few twists that I did not expect. But there had to be for the author to survive a prison for political prisoners in Iran after the revolution.
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in history, especially 20th century. I liked the book.
This is a story that explains brutal sexist violence authorized by religion, and the failure of the ignorant to staunch the strength of an intelligent woman who found her way to a much better world with her reflective mind - and her pen.
An excellent read!

Hay 2 definiciones de Clause 28 en inglés:
Clause 28 1
(In the United Kingdom) a clause of the 1988 Local Government Bill (which became section 28 of the 1988 Local Government Act) which forbids public spending by local authorities on any activity that promotes homosexuality, and thereby imposes restrictions on certain books and educational material, works of art, etc.
1980s; earliest use found in The Financial Times.
Hay 2 definiciones de Clause 28 en inglés:
clause 2
1A unit of grammatical organization next below the sentence in rank and in traditional grammar said to consist of a subject and predicate. See also main clause, subordinate clause.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- In each sentence above, two clauses are linked by clause-chaining without conjunctions.
- A grounded clause corresponds to the traditional category of finite clause.
- What we really have here is an adjectival clause qualifying potentially a noun phrase or a noun.
2A particular and separate article, stipulation, or proviso in a treaty, bill, or contract.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- Contracts often have choice-of-law clauses, specifying the law to be applied.
- Also, I say to the Minister that it does not appear to me that there is a treaty clause in the bill.
- Under a provision referred to as clause 24 of the contract there was a time limit.
section, paragraph, article, subsection, note, item, point, passage, part, heading;
specification, requirement
clausal adjetivo
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- Problematic sequences that cannot easily be analysed into clausal constituents appear in such contexts as labels, titles, warnings, and greetings.
- The use of 'because' here makes clear that the external speaker is making a judgement about the clausal relationship between the two events described in and from the viewpoint of the discourse's internal protagonist.
- Having stated this position, Jackendoff immediately points to two cases where syntax and semantics fail to match up; one concerns the grammatical relation of clausal subject, the other the lexical category of noun.
Middle English: via Old French clause, based on Latin claus- 'shut, closed', from the verb claudere.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
America's Health: Our Top Doctor's 2006 Report Card
What simple thing can Americans do right now, today, to ensure a healthier tomorrow?
Americans can right now, today, take more of a personal interest in their health. They need to be more interested, and understand that what affects all of us tomorrow are the choices we make today. Whether that means environmental exposures -- such as smoking, choosing to exercise, or what to put in our mouths.
What disease or condition would you most like to see eradicated in your lifetime, and why?
When you look at health from a public health standpoint, the condition with the most impact is cardiovascular disease. Second is cancer. I would focus on cancer, because it is so devastating to the individual and those around them. We are closer to addressing what causes cancer and what we can do about it. We are on the verge of the knowledge and the science to do this.
What is your personal health philosophy?
My personal health philosophy is to take control of my own health and health habits.
What is your best health habit? Your worst?
My best habit is not a single thing, such as eating right -- that gives the impression that is really all you have to do. That is not the case. Your health is the result of the sum total of what you do. My best habit is constantly trying to make the right choices for my health, whether that means what I eat, how I exercise and when -- we are faced with the choices [you make] every single day. We have to make the right choices every day but we are not going to be perfect. My bad habit is making excuses ... as to why I can't do something. It is very bad, because it justifies in your mind why you can't do it. But say I may not have had best meal for lunch. I say to myself, I will do better next time.
Who is your health hero?
C. Everett Koop. He is the modern communicator. He is still going.

Airplane makes emergency landingJuly 26,2014Airplane makes
emergency landing
SOUTH BURLINGTON Officials say no one was hurt as a jet made an emergency landing shortly after takeoff from the Burlington International Airport.
Heather Bowman, operations specialist at the airport, told the Burlington Free Press that the Canadair regional jet 200 made the landing at about 5:30 p.m. Thursday and it was attributed to mechanical issues after the pilot felt unknown vibrations. The flight was on its way to Detroit.
Bowman said the Delta Airline operated plane was up in the air for about 15 minutes. A brief inspection was done after it landed.MORE IN This Just In

Bulgarian Military Jet Crashes Without Casualties, Ministry Says
A Bulgarian military aircraft MiG-29 crashed during a training flight near the southern city of Plovdiv without casualties.
The plane caught fire shortly after takeoff from the Graf Ignatievo air force base, the Defense Ministry in Sofia said in a statement today. Its two pilots were instructed to direct the aircraft toward an unpopulated area and eject. The MiG-29 fell between the villages of Tsarimir and Goliam Chardak and there are no civilian casualties, the ministry said.
Defense Minister Anyu Angelov and emergency crews are at the crash site. The two pilots were rescued by helicopter and taken to hospital, where one was diagnosed with back injuries.
"We are lucky there are no casualties," Angelov told reporters today. "The cause of the accident is being investigated and airforce flights are canceled."
The Soviet-era aircraft was training for an exercise with the 31st U.S. Air Force Squadron based in Aviano, Italy, planned for April 29. The exercise was canceled after the crash, the ministry said.
Bulgaria, the European Union's poorest state in terms of per-capita economic output, has delayed plans to purchase new military aircraft needed to meet North Atlantic Treaty Organization requirements. Bulgaria joined NATO in 2004.
Bulgaria has 15 MiG-29 fighters, which it plans to use until their service life expires in 2029. Its military fleet also includes Soviet-era MiG-21 and SU-25 fighters.

How Garment Workers Decided $104.72 a Month Was A Living Wage
Monday, after a week of protests, Bangladesh's garment manufacturers agreed to increase the minimum wage for workers in the industry. But they haven't agreed on how much it will be.
The garment workers are asking for $104.72 a month, which would more than double the current minimum. To get to that number, they created a monthly budget that, they figure, is the bare minimum.
Rubana Mohammadi who runs a few garment factories, has argued that if the union gets the increase they're asking for, the price of a Bangladeshi-made T-shirt could increase by 20 cents. That would make it harder for Bangladesh to compete with other countries among buyers who are looking for the lowest possible price. Vietnam, a competitor to Bangladesh's garment industry, has a minimum wage that ranges from $80 to $112 a month, depending on what part of the country the factory is in.
We'll have lots more about Bangladesh's garment industry in the next few months, as part of Planet Money's T-shirt project. In the mean time, keep track of our progress on the project's Tumblr.

Some background
About two and a half years ago, Nautilus started experimenting with agile project management techniques. Today, we're using scrum for about twelve people split into two teams. Over the course of retrospectives, it's changed a bit – probably enough to cost me my certification, were I the kind of person who collected such things. I generally feel good about where we are and how we execute today, though I'm both hopeful and a little bit afraid of how things will go as we continue to staff up. I'm not going to go into details, but the team has put together many hundreds of thousands of lines of code and tests, over a bunch of assemblies. It's not a group the size of a standard Microsoft product unit, but neither is it a group of a five people doing XP for a month in a conference room.
My first mistake as a manager: force-rollout of TDD
Before becoming a manager, as with most everyone at Microsoft, I was an individual contributor engineer. I wrote code and tools, and quite a bit of it. I also prided myself on being the sort of person who checked things in without bugs the first time. So, when test-driven development (TDD) became trendy, I was one of the early people to jump on the bandwagon. To this day, I believe that authoring tests before code is the best way to author code and ensure that it's doing what you want it to do, force reflection on the design of the system, and prevent the authoring of unnecessary complexity.
But trying to force it onto my team nearly got me lynched.
I went through the presentations on TDD by the book, extolling its virtues and showing how to do it even on a mature codebase. Then, I attempted to push its use on the team as required practice. Bad move. My team contains many engineers with at least one decade and many with two decades of experience writing production code to very high quality. I was nearly laughed out of the building, to comments along the lines of "if I want to sit down, I don't throw myself onto the floor first to ensure the need for a chair!"
After reflecting for a bit on the history and culture of the company, I realized that the issue was largely one of development style: people here like to map out today's and tomorrow's requirements and then design a system that will fit both. The idea of creating a system that only works for one version or writing code that you'll need to throw away (but might forget to!) is like asking a working-age Swede to put milk or sugar in their coffee – it simply isn't done. I went back to the team with developer test code coverage goals and details on the architecture reviews we were putting in place to ensure we were building not only just the right stuff, but stuff that was consistent across the whole platform. That not only went over well, but has been embraced by the team and is now such a matter of course that we actually encounter a little bit of culture shock when we work alongside or deliver to teams that don't hold the same bar. So, we don't do TDD uniformly across the team, but we do all produce developer tests to a high code coverage number and go through architectural reviews.
The lessons to take away: understand the culture of your organization deeply to avoid embarrassment, and be clear about what you are really trying to achieve.
Coming soon! Or, well, eventually, possibly, maybe…
Shameless plug
Want to work on the coolest team in Microsoft for a manager who isn't afraid to admit his mistakes and make changes? I'm looking for a developer to build a user interface framework on Avalon for building developer tools. What could be more fun than that?
[Update: got feedback that the end results weren't clear, so I added a statement to clarify them!]

Background To assess the prevalence and clinical impact of co-morbid social anxiety disorder (SAD) and alcohol use disorders (AUD, i.e. alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence) in a nationally representative sample of adults in the United States.
Method Data came from a large representative sample of the US population. Face-to-face interviews of 43093 adults residing in households were conducted during 2001–2002. Diagnoses of mood, anxiety, alcohol and drug use disorders and personality disorders were based on the Alcohol Use Disorder and Associated Disabilities Interview Schedule – DSM-IV version.
Results Lifetime prevalence of co-morbid AUD and SAD in the general population was 2.4%. SAD was associated with significantly increased rates of alcohol dependence [odds ratio (OR) 2.8] and alcohol abuse (OR 1.2). Among respondents with alcohol dependence, SAD was associated with significantly more mood, anxiety, psychotic and personality disorders. Among respondents with SAD, alcohol dependence and abuse were most strongly associated with more substance use disorders, pathological gambling and antisocial personality disorders. SAD occurred before alcohol dependence in 79.7% of co-morbid cases, but co-morbidity status did not influence age of onset for either disorder. Co-morbid SAD was associated with increased severity of alcohol dependence and abuse. Respondents with co-morbid SAD and alcohol dependence or abuse reported low rates of treatment-seeking.
Conclusions Co-morbid lifetime AUD and SAD is a prevalent dual diagnosis, associated with substantial rates of additional co-morbidity, but remaining largely untreated. Future research should clarify the etiology of this co-morbid presentation to better identify effective means of intervention.

Scripture: Revelation (NIV) 1:17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said, "Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.
18 I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades."
Observation: I am aware of several people who have died and then been brought back to life. But the life to which they returned was still subject to death. Jesus was dead but is now alive with a life that is not subject to death. Like a wrestler, Jesus embraced death and defeated it. In Jesus, death has met its master!
Application: The life of Jesus that dwells in me is life that has already faced death, embraced it and defeated it! Like a baby emerging from its mother's womb, at death my spirit, united with Jesus, will emerge from this physical body to a whole new level of living and a life that will never die!
Prayer: Lord, there is nothing I face in this life that you have not faced. You know what I am experiencing and you know what I should do. More than that, you give me the strength to make it through the tough times. In you, I am blest! Amen

50+: Live Better, Longer
How to Talk to Your Doctor
April 10, 2000 (Los Angeles) -- If you are getting less attention and help from your doctor than you might like, the findings from a recent study might help you to improve the relationship -- especially if you are 65 or older.
The study, published in January in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, compared the interactions that older patients and younger patients had with their doctors. Researchers, with the consent of patients and doctors, videotaped the visits of 509 outpatients seen by medical residents in a clinic and then asked patients to complete questionnaires about the appointments.
Recommended Related to Healthy Seniors
Eating well helps keep your body strong, your mind sharp, and your energy level up as you age. So put these five types of foods on your grocery list.
Read the How to Eat as You Age article > >
Older patients -- those 65 and older -- had longer appointments, more return visits, and reported higher levels of satisfaction than the younger ones aged 18 to 64. Yet, even though the older patients had lengthier conversations with their doctors, they were given less counseling, asked their doctors fewer questions, had fewer discussions about their use of tobacco, alcohol, and other substances, and were asked to change their unhealthy behaviors less often than the younger patients.
Be Active, Not Passive
There are several implications here for older people, says the study's lead author, Edward J. Callahan, PhD, associate director of the Center for Health Services Research in Primary Care at the University of California, Davis, Medical School in Sacramento.
First, realize that you are entitled to speak up. ''Many older people were raised to place doctors on a pedestal,'' Callahan says. ''They need to let go of that vision and to realize that it's their right to ask questions and be assertive. The more actively a patient participates in his or her care, the better he or she does in terms of health.''
''Don't leave the office until you get answers to all your questions, '' says Jim Lien, 68, a retired high school teacher in Minneapolis who has congestive heart failure. Lien, who has also battled a cancer that's now in remission and undergone two coronary artery bypass surgeries, says he is sure that being an active patient had a lot to do with his survival. There's no need to be aggressive or rude, says Lien, but it is important to ask for what you want.

ROME, N.Y. (AP) - A number of the bonfires on the Woodstock '99 grounds got out of hand Sunday night and raged into a three-alarm blaze near the concert's main stage.
About ten fire engines entered the grounds and firemen were working to put out the fire as thousands of fans watched, state police officials said.
Authorities said the music had stopped on the main stage, and fans were being asked to back off in order to allow firefighters access to the flames.
No information was available on whether there were any injuries as a result of the fires.
Earlier in the day, many campers already were pulling up stakes and stashing gear in their cars Sunday morning in hopes of making a quick getaway once their favorite band finished up, but it didn't look promising.
"We all have got to work in the morning," said Mara Kugler of Baldwin, N.Y., a sleeping bag tucked under her arm. "It's been a long week but worth it."
State police said that by late afternoon more than 70,000 people had departed with few delays. The exodus was expected to take up to a day since more than 225,000 packed the site.
By afternoon, the New York State Thruway was full with concert-goers, but traffic was moving at a steady clip. Rest areas along the Thruway were jammed, and police were directing traffic through rest area parking lots.
