Re: new 120% genoa
Ah. A UV cover! Not the best thing for sail shape! That is likely the culprit. They are fine for cruisers that can't be bothered taking their sail down all season, but they have no place on a race boat!
Re: new 120% genoa
I pactically use a micrometer to tune the mast and I've re-tuned several times. Always the same. My guess is it has to do with the way the uv cover is sewn on some how tensions the leech more on one side whether it's in tension or compression.

Re: new 120% genoa
John F, My 4 cents.
7 years ago I was faced with the exact same question. New boat (to me) bag of rags for sails, desire for beer can and some club racing and Narragansett bay area cruising.
I bought a new dacron main, higher level fabric from an off shore source and the following year again a high quality dacron 135% jib, sourced offshore.
What I got were and still are very good working sails. I still win an occasional race and are always competitive. I make far more tactical and brain fart mistakes that faster sails would not correct.
That being said, Don't do what I did. Get the dacron sails but get them from a local loft. Make sure they come with check out from the sailmaker so you can learn from him/her how the sail is supposed to look and be trimmed at differant points of sail. You can gain a weath of knowledge that way not to mention having a service outlet should problems arise. The little bit extra you pay will be worth it.

155% no change std rating
145% (+3)
135% (+5)
125% (+7)
etc.......... (some other factors I've left out)
In a long skinny boat, like this one, with a small foretriangle to begin with, overlap means speed upwind.
You want to at least think this through before you send big money on a headsail.
(I'm not selling sails.).
Just something to consider.
As to size, you should consider the prevailing conditions in your area. Because we sail in Narragansett Bay (where the winds are pretty consistent), we went for a 145 and got the three point PHRF credit (we think this worked out well for us). If you are in the Long Island Sound or an area where the winds are generally lighter, you may want to go for the full 155.
Re: new 120% genoa
The credits for smaller headsails are just that, credits not true rating adjustments based on real performance. The A33 has a SA/D of 20.3 which is pretty good. The determining factor should be the average wind conditions in your area. If the wind, on average, is 10 knots or less go with the 155%. If the wind averages higher than that go with the smaller headsail and get the credit. The sail prices you mentioned seem about right although there are some less expensive alternatives across the border. I got a 155% Twaron (Kevlar) for less than $2,000 made with Dimension Flex cloth. The sail was made in the US.
Re: new 120% genoa
I have a 110 made of North Nor-lam, got maybe 4 season out of it, very few miles/races! In the mean time, my 155 is an ullman fiberpath, not sure how many miles. tacks, racs etc, still pulling very well at 3 yrs.
Personally, some of the laminates are less than 20% more compared to woven, the performance parts last longer etc. so why not spend the difference. Along with true laminate's will not stretch in equal or the upper range of a given sail, so you do not heel or loose speed as much.
My def of true laminates would be my fiberpath, 3dl, Ullmans CAL, some of the mylar with carbon or other scrim in the middle. The norlam while a laminate, it is still mostly dacron.
As mentioned, which sail size to choose will depend. I have a code 2 ie small spin, I get a 9 sec credit for it, yeah it is 600#vs my 155 at 345. but going downwind wing on wing with the 155, I seem to go faster than the smallish cruise spin I have. SO while I am 9 secs slower in rating, I go about the same speed. So going with a smaller sail in this case, has no advantage.
Same as a folding vs nonfolding prop. Locally you get 9 secs for a fixed 2 blade vs a folder. One goes MORE than 9 secs a mile faster with a folder than a fixed, Even the Campbell. So if one is wanting to race reasonably competitive, one needs a folding prop vs a fixed.
Yesterday the wind was in the 10-20 range, initially, so we thru up a 140 vs 155, we still did 7+ down wind a few time, beat boats rated upwards of 15 secs faster in our division etc. Once the wind calmed down to the 15 knot range, the 155 went up, gained the lost 1/4 to 1/2 knot as the wind died. A 110 would have been slower yet as the wind went down!

Carbon is great in the sun. No worries. What it doesn't like is bending. Carbon is brittle. It's all a trade off.

text: this coming season will be pegged as a rebuilding year as well. Whatever we do this summer- it will be difficult to get to the level of Orlando, Cleveland, Boston or Chicago. Paraphrasing Joe D, we could continue to put ourselves in a position to make it to the Conference Finals or we could rebuild and give ourselves a legitimate hope at a championship. The Mullens promise rumor just got me thinking that Joe is looking for next summer to make his splash. Why not just ride Mullens into the lottery next June? Get a high pick, save your cap space, build for the future, and put yourself in a position to get a high profile player next summer. We could add a player like Channing Frye who after his rookie year I thought could be an All-Star. He seems like the sort of underappreaciated player Joe D would be interested in. Gortat could be an option at center. PG- Stuckey, Bynum SG- Rip, Afflalo SF- Prince, Sharpe, Washington PF- Frye, Johnson, Maxiell C- ?, Brown, Mullens, Plaisted Sometimes you have to lose in order to win. Take a step back to take a step forward. Kiss some frogs, to find your prince. Ok maybe not that last one. While I don't mind the idea of signing a couple of players like Gordon and Boozer and then trading Rip to find a center...I don't like the idea of letting a suspect free agent crop force you into making decisions.

Don't forget that in 1961, a group of 400 courageous black and white activists called the Freedom Riders challenged the Jim Crow laws of the day by riding buses and trains across the segregated south. Don't forget that they risked their lives, even though these were peaceful demonstrations. Don't forget that it was an important precursor to stabilizing black voting rights and the Civil Rights Movement. Don't forget.
The program includes a preview screening of Freedom Riders, the film by award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson which will debut on PBS stations across the country as part of the "American Experience" series beginning in May. The film is based on the original book by Raymond Arsenault.
"We are very proud to be involved," says Dr. Brenda Bryant, Dean of Community-Based Learning and co-founder of Marygrove's Social Justice Program. "This is the kind of information we need to bring to the forefront, to keep it alive." She adds that whenever history has presented unjust acts—outrageous incidents of discrimination, deprivation or exclusion—we, as a society must learn all we can to fully understand. "Remembering the Freedom Riders 50 years later brings the story back for new generations to learn, older generations to gain strength and for all to heal," Bryant said.

DETROIT, Mich., March 22, 2011— Marygrove's English and Modern Languages Department is pleased to announce that the award-winning poet and literary scholar, Harryette Mullen, will be the twenty-third guest in its Contemporary American Authors Lecture Series.
Her innovative poems challenge us to rethink our ideas about gender, race, language, politics, and popular culture by engaging in wordplay: puns, jokes, acrostics, and anagrams. Commenting on Mullen's incisive experimentation with language, Elisabeth A. Frost has written, "Crossing the lines between often isolated aesthetic camps, Harryette Mullen has pioneered her own form of bluesy, disjunctive lyric poetry, combining a concern for the political issues raised by identity politics with a poststructuralist emphasis on language." As Carol Muske-Dukes says, Mullen's poetry is "a little like the Muse playing scrabble."
Harryette Mullen will deliver the Lillian and Don Bauder Lecture at 8 p.m. on Friday, April 15, 2011, in Alumnae Hall on the Marygrove College campus. Afterward, she will sign copies of her works, which will be available for purchase. This event is free and open to the community.

No child is too old to hear Goldilocks and The Three Bears read aloud to them. According to literacy advocate Vivian Johnson, Ph.D, Associate Professor of Education, Marygrove College, there are benefits for people of all ages to listen to a story—it's an important way to sharpen comprehension skills. Dr. Johnson recently challenged urban middle school students to re-write a classic like Goldilocks to reflect their own world view. Suddenly, reading and writing became more engaging to children who have never seen a forest -- or anything much beyond their own city limits. "To reach kids, no matter where they are, no matter how few resources they may have available to them, you have to be creative," Johnson says. "Finding what works can be a game." But literacy must win.

Educators will tell you there is no substitute for hands-on learning. That's why several high school students and their college student mentors from Marygrove College and Albion College are getting together each semester to study newly-restored wetlands just outside of Detroit.
This two-year collaboration, called the Third-90 Wetlands Restoration Program, allows University Prep High School, Detroit students to benefit from direct exposure to college students and faculty in a collegiate setting. University Prep Detroit prides itself on being a Third-90 high school, which means 90 percent of their students will graduate from high school, 90 percent of those will attend college, and 90 percent of those college students will earn a degree. This effort is particularly important in the City of Detroit, where high school graduation rates are among the lowest in the country.

Guys, what a great podcast. I am a chemical engineer with a MS in Environmental Management. I have been doing EH&S work in industrial settings for about 20 years after some years in R&D and manufacturing positions. I have always had a strong curiosity for all branches of science (physics, astronomy, electronics and biochemistry), as well as math and history. Emergency response and risk communication functions have always been part of my job over the years. Virology was relatively new to me when I found your podcast. I had spent quite a bit of time learning the state of the science related to avian flu and SARS so that I could gauge the level of preparedness my company should have for responding to a pandemic. I eventually concluded that we needed a plan and should be ready but that the H5N1 virus had some ways to go before it became a general threat to humans. That research had left me with an interest to learn more of the broader field of virology. When H1N1 hit this year in Mexico, I found your topical podcasts very helpful.
I have been rapidly catching up on your episodes as I drive (about 1 episode per weekday) and will be sad when I am forced to slow down to real time speeds. I don't suppose you all have considered doing "Today in Virology" so that I will have a new episode each day!!!
To the point:
I strongly agree with your assessments of the limited value of face masks with respect to providing protection from airborne flu infections. Actual user practices leave many infection pathways open. Beyond just not getting a good seal, how do you train users to remove the mask without contaminating their hands and face. If you reuse the mask which would be necessary in an emergency, how do you keep the inside clean. When do you wear it and when do you take it off? I train people to wear respiratory protection in accordance with the OSHA requirements for fit testing, medical surveillance, industrial hygiene testing, etc. It will not be easy to translate those practices to an untrained inexperienced population.
I agree with Dick that the whole "hot and humid stops the spread of flu" dogma seems inconsistent with the facts. How do we know that flu does not show up in human stool? Do we have actual data? In Asia, could the transmission mechanism be airborne particulate avian feces? Could the reason the pandemic strains violate the seasonal rules be a function of increased intestinal transmission or conversely that their envelopes are more robust in withstanding environmental stresses? The great thing about science is that the more we learn the more questions we generate.
With respect to the study on flu transmission and absolute humidity, If I heard you correctly when you quoted the summary hypothesis of the paper, the authors proposed that the aerosol droplets float longer when dry. This set off my engineering "I doubt it" alarm! So I spent some time reviewing the basics of psychrometry and humidification. I have a new theory on why low absolute humidity correlates with transmission. I think the critical parameter is actually droplet temperature. Droplet temperature will be controlled by the Wet Bulb Temperature for any set of conditions. Wet bulb temp is the temperature of a wetted surface that is experiencing steady state evaporation into the local air conditions. The lower the Relative humidity, the faster the evaporation and more heat lost resulting in a cooler surface. Think swamp cooler in Phoenix vs. New Orleans. Let me give some data to elucidate:
(All data interpolated from Figure 12-2 of Perry's Chemical Engineering Handbook 5th edition)
Take a volume of air with an absolute humidity of 30 grains of H2O per pound of dry air. (7000 grains = 1 pound) Sorry for the units, but I think in Fahrenheit!
@ 35 F = 100% Relative Humidity (RH) and the Wet Bulb Temp. (WBT) = 35 F (i.e., No cooling by evaporation)
As long as the absolute Humidity is low, the particle temperature will stay low until it dries out. In higher humidity, there will be little evaporative cooling and so a higher droplet temperature will be reached more quickly. My amateur virologist guess would be that the lipid coating has an upper temperature limit beyond which it loses strength and/or integrity. At higher temperatures and higher humidity the particle temperature gets too high for the virus to survive shear stresses related to contact with surfaces. In engineering terms it doesn't bounce well if it is too hot! This would also be consistent with avian transmission routes via cold water bodies. I would expect drying rates at higher temperatures with low RH to be much faster and once the particles dry, their temperature would equilibrate to the bulk air temperature. This would be consistent with the data showing reduced transmission at higher temperatures. Do we have any data that would indicate if dried viruses are still infectious? The physics of these small particles is not straightforward. Also, none of this addresses how the properties of spit differ from pure water. If there is someone out there with the experience and the computer power, this could be an interesting research topic. Please include me in the Et. Al. part when you publish.
A couple of recommendations:
A great website for non biochemists wishing to understand the basics of DNA and RNA is DNAi.org. Great history, clear explanations and the coolest videos of translation and replication I have ever seen! When you watch an animated ribosome at work it makes you proud to be a DNA based life form!
A book for Dick: "The Great Mortality" by John Kelly; "An intimate history of the Black Death, the most devastating plague of all time" I found this when researching H5N1 and was struck by how it captures the social and environmental influences on the development of the plague and then the impacts of the plague on societies and their reactions. It puts some of the current responses to swine flu in perspective.
Future Topics:
Why all the differences in nucleic acid structures within viruses? What are the pros and cons of ssDNA vs. dsDNA vs. ssRNA+ vs. ssRNA- vs. dsRNA?
How does an encapsulated virus survive in the digestive system? My vote is for Hydrogen Bonding (the universal answer for all chemistry exams!)
Dick's list of top ten vectors throughout history.
How and why retro viruses change our DNA. What's in it for them? (yes I know I think they are alive!)
How about a session on rhino viruses since we can all relate to their impacts. Why so many, are the different strains new each year or just new to me, etc.?
PS. Doesn't the Zoster vaccine qualify as one you take after infection like rabies?
Love the show and the latent humor

Appreciate your help here guys.
I'm on my way now to saving up the cash for a CELTA Certification here in the U.S. Just trying to get some information from people with TEFL experience in Latin America. What are the prospects for a new teacher trying to break into the industry who has no University Degree, but a CELTA Certification? Which countries have the highest wages in South/Central America? Which are the easiest to get a visa without a degree?
I'm up for a serious discussion, if anybody else is. I say South/Central America because I know the prospects of getting a work visa in Asia, or the middle east are close to none, not to mention I've always had a secret love affair with South America and the Spanish language.
So let's try to get a good thread going. I will do some research on the matter and post what I find in this thread.

As promised, we're focusing on dishes of a foreign country, Panama. A dear friend of mine, Maritza Johnson, agreed to share three of her favorite Panamanian dishes.
Maritza was born and raised in Panama City, Panama, the southernmost country in Central America and the first European settlement on the Pacific coast. Maritza met her husband, Mike, while he was stationed in Panama and despite her mother's warning she dated him.
A typical Panamanian meal usually includes chicken or other meats, rice and beans and is accompanied by local fruits and vegetables such as yucca, squash and plantains. The food of Panama's islands and expansive coasts is vibrant with fresh seafood — The word "Panama" means "abundance of fish" in the native language —and tropical embellishments, such as mango and coconut. And coffee is an absolute must in Panama.
Panamanian cuisine ranges from the familiar to the ultra-exotic because of Panama's diverse Spanish, American, Caribbean and indigenous influences.
Arroz con Pollo is one of the most popular dishes. Slow cooked Chicken served with rice and vegetables can be found in every restaurant in Panama.
Ceviche is the side dish of choice everywhere in Panama. The most popular Ceviche is made from raw fish, cut in little pieces and prepared with lots and lots of lime juice. Ceviche is also made with shrimp, squid or octopus.
Flan is without a doubt the most popular dessert of Panama.
Nora Sweat, author of "Mama and Me," is a native of Hardin County and a retired home economics/ family and consumer science teacher. She can be reached at email@example.com or by mail at 408 W. Dixie Ave., Elizabethtown, KY 42701.
Maritza's Luscious Flan
¼ cup water
1 cup sugar
6 eggs
14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
12-ounce can of evaporated milk
2 ounces of skim or whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Add water to sugar and melt over low heat in a heavy non ferrous pan, stirring constantly until completely dissolved into a golden caramel color. Coat the bottom and sides of an oven safe mold with the caramel. Let cool.
In an electric blender or with a whisk, beat eggs first, then add all of the other ingredients and blend until well mixed. Pour mixture into cooled caramel coated mold, cover with foil, and make about 6 tiny holes in the foil with a toothpick. Place the mold in a pan filled with water deep enough to come up half way on the outside of the mold. Bake in preheated oven at 325 degrees for 1 to 1½ hours until a toothpick comes out clean.
Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
For flavor variations, 8 ounces of cream cheese and/or 1 teaspoon of lemon extract can be added when blending the egg mixture.
To serve the flan,use a knife to separate the flan from the sides of the mold. Place a serving tray over the top of the mold and turn it upside-down rapidly. Pour the remaining caramel from the mold onto the flan.
The flan can be garnished with favorite fruits and/or by grating half of a lemon peel over the top.
Shrimp Ceviche
1½ teaspoons salt, divided
16 ounces medium raw shrimp, fresh or thawed
10-ounce can of diced tomatoes
1 cup cocktail sauce
½ red onion, finely chopped
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
½ of a jalapeño pepper
½ cup of red or green sweet pepper
¼ cup fresh lemon juice or ¼ cup fresh lime juice
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper (this can be omitted if a mild flavor is preferred)
Tortilla chips or Saltine crackers
2 limes cut into wedges
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Add shrimp and cook for 3 minutes. Immediately plunge cooked shrimp into an ice water bath. Peel shrimp and place in a deep glass dish.
Combine diced tomatoes, cocktail sauce, red onion, cilantro, hot peppers and sweet peppers. Add lemon juice, lime juice, remaining ½ teaspoon salt and crushed red pepper. This sauce is best made the day before and refrigerated. Add sauce to the shrimp and with a plastic or wooden spoon combine ingredients thoroughly. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
The ceviche can be served in a deep glass bowl and guests can spoon it onto the tortilla chips or saltine crackers.
Or spoon ceviche (about 4-5 shrimp) into small clear cups or glasses and garnish with tortilla chips and lime wedges.
Arroz Corn Pollo (Rice with Chicken)
¼ cup lemon juice
1 cup chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
4-5 garlic cloves chopped finely (half for chicken, half for sauce)
1 can diced tomatoes
1 small can tomato sauce
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 small jar pimiento stuffed olives
1 tablespoon capers
1 large chicken cut or chicken
quarters, skinned
2-3 cups medium or long grain rice
1 teaspoon saffron or turmeric
3-4 ½ cups chicken broth
2 cups frozen peas
1 small jar of diced pimento
Mix lemon juice with cilantro, salt, pepper and garlic. Pour over chicken, toss well and marinate for three hours. Sauté chicken until golden brown and set aside. Save the juices from the chicken.
In a large deep casserole, mix diced tomatoes and tomato sauce with the onion, rest of garlic, olives, capers and the juice from the sautéed chicken. Cover and simmer until thickened. This sauce can be done the night before if cooking for a crowd. Add the chicken and simmer until tender.
This can be served on a large platter with the chicken and sauce over the rice.
Romaine lettuce and avocado salad goes well with this dish.

Not good news, glad they found it though!http://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2012/s3639182.htm?site=melbourne
Thanks for the report, Paul.Neil, we are just about the only country without varroa (except in an australian owned island or two). I am guessing antarctica doesn't have very many varroa either. However, A. cerana is a natural host to the mite and have superior hygenic abilities and are able to live with it. So countries naturally hosting asian honeybees or other non mellifera species really wouldn't be affected.Lone
Although these asians are able to cope better they are not desirable to have here correct?
The best part though was a human demonstration of the waggle dance.
I don't know how much of an impact the Varroa mite would have. Reports vary from increased hive management costs to complete destruction of apiaries.

To get the golden ratio, mathematicians take a line and divide it into two segments with the property that when the longer part is divided by the smaller part, it is equal to the whole length divided by the longer part. If you take the length of a college career, divide it by a one small life-changing moment, which is also equal to the whole four-year experience, you get a divine sequence of events. Confused? Brittany Garza is not.
Garza, a senior math major, was selected to be the 2013 Commencement Student Speaker. She will present her speech, "Level Up as Leaders of Faith and Character," to 350 undergraduates and 793 graduate students on May 18 at Reliant Arena. Garza looks forward to the opportunity to share her collegiate reflections.
"It feels surreal," Garza said. "It will be a privilege to tell them the thoughts I've had on my heart during my four years at St. Thomas. We've been very blessed, and 'leveling up' means giving back to the world and touching other people's lives as leaders of faith and character, which is our mission."
Nerves are not an issue for Garza because of professors who helped her refine the speech. Dr. Livia Bornigia, assistant professor of communication, helped with her delivery, and the Rev. Anthony Giampietro, CSB, associate professor and chair philosophy, and Sister Mary Roberta Connors, FSE, pastoral care coordinator of Campus Ministry, helped her get to the heart of her message.
"The theme of my speech is about truth," Garza said. "My time at St. Thomas helped me embrace truth. Even when we feel hopeless, if we have faith and we follow truth, we end up where we're supposed to be."
Five Minutes of Conversation Equals Four Years of Success
Garza met Father Giampietro as a senior in high school when he was visiting her home parish at St. Philip of Jesus Catholic Church in Houston, Texas. Garza's dad encouraged her to ask Father Giampietro about a conflict of faith and science that she was having trouble reconciling. Father Giampietro cleared up her confusion, and encouraged her to visit St. Thomas. Inspired by their chat, she obliged and later she and her younger sister Brienna, now a freshman at UST, became Celts.
Coming full circle and guided by Father Giampietro, Garza gave a mathematician's perspective during her Honors Program presentation "Person: The Endangered Species" at the 2013 Research Symposium.
"Brittany has the background, drive and discipline to excel in life," Father Giampietro said. "She has a wonderful disposition and is always ready to help. She combines a deep and joyful faith with a great capacity to relate to people who are very different from her."
Of all her collegiate achievements, and it's a long list, Garza is most proud of the Society of Macrina, a group she founded with her friend Chloe Jester to unite and empower women on campus.
"The Society of Macrina is really near and dear to my heart," Garza said. "This is what Chloe and I wanted to leave behind because it is really trying to help the community. By helping the woman, you help the man."
Garza said St. Thomas helped her tie together logic, faith and problem solving. She plans to finish her prerequisite courses for medical school in the coming year and to become either a bilingual doctor or a physician's assistant.
Although Garza's time at UST is not as quantifiable as a golden ratio, it seems pretty evident that this was a divine sequence of events. Watch Commencement Live

As most of you know, the MLC Jet Pack is the nicest and lightest jet pack available at this time. It is well made, sturdy, very light and ready for paint right out of the box. However, the rocket and thrusters, are not as accurate nor as detailed as the rest of the pack.
Like few others on the board, I wanted to upgrade these parts to be more accurate. I made several attempts to contacting one maker, but I got no response. At just about the time I received my JP, Bobamaker started working on his scratchbuilt JP. And the progress pics on his site, looked great. Long story short ... I was able to pick up a rocket and a set of thrusters from BM to use with my MLC :jet pack .
Here are two comparison pics. MLC first and BM second.
Note: I thought I had a pic of the BM parts right out of the box, but I could not find it. The pic below is of the pieces after I modified them to fit the MLC pack.
I will update the thread with some other progress pics, as I get a chance.

While earwigs do not actually lay eggs in human ears, many homeowners find that they still wish to learn how to get rid of earwigs- fast. Earwig damage can, however, come in the form of crop damage to mature peaches, apricots, hops, and other agricultural products.
Earwigs like to hide in dark, moist places and will therefore move into human attics and cause homeowners to learn how to get rid of earwigs. A female earwig can lay up to 80 eggs, which will hatch within one week of being laid. Don't let confusion over how to get rid of earwigs stand in your way; contact a professional today.

THIS WEEK: Friday, October 26th 2012 @ 7:30 pm
(Rebroadcast Sunday @ 11 am )
GOP RIDING HIGH IN KANSAS: New figures from the Kansas Secretary of State's office show the ranks of Republicans surging while the number of Democrats has plummeted since 2008. In fact, there are 45,000 fewer registered Democrats in Kansas than there were during the last Presidential election according to the latest numbers. Democrats now make up just a little more than 25 percent of the state's registered voters. We analyze the shift and its implications.
STUMPING BROWNBACK: The Kansas Governor stumps for Romney in the swing state of Ohio this week. Brownback was on a five city tour of northeastern Ohio campaigning for his former rival. But would anyone in Ohio know who he is? Who's footing the bill? Is Brownback just anxious to get his name out there in advance of 2016?
BULLSHITSU: Much ado about nothing? Or a new low in the civility of campaigns? Is the latest controversy in Missouri's U-S Senate race simply distracting voters from the real substantive policy differences that seperate Claire McCaskill from Todd Akin?
IGNORING MISSOURI: During this entire Presidential campaign, Barack Obama has not stepped foot in Missouri once to campaign. And Republican hopeful Mitt Romney stopped over only briefly at KCI to refuel his plane and have catered barbecue delivered to his staffers on board. Not one rally or event featuring Obama or Romney. And neither candidate has run any ads specifically targeting Missouri. If you live in Kansas, you expect this kind of treatment, but Missourians are not used to getting the "cold shoulder" like this. Why?
HARTZLER & HENSLEY: It's not a law firm. They are the last names of the two major party candidates running for Missouri's 4th District Congressional seat. The U-S Senate race in Missouri is sucking the oxygen out of coverage of many of the region's other political races. Before election day we will spotlight those other campaigns. This week, we track the Missouri 4th district seat currently held by Republican Vicky Hartzler who replaced longtime Washington veteran Ike Skelton. Now completing her first term in Congress, Hartzler is running against Cass County prosecutor Theresa Hensley. Dave Helling, writing in the Kansas City Star says this is the most competitive House race in our region this election season. Yet most of us have never heard anything about it.
GRAVES: Why have we not heard anything from Sam Graves this election season? Is the Missouri 6th District Republican Congressman running unopposed this election cycle or is the Akin-McCaskill race simply sucking all the publicity from this campaign?
SPORTING KC LEAGUE CHAMPIONS: And finally we leave you with scenes from Livestrong Sporting Park, where Sporting Kansas City defeated Philadelphia this week before a sellout crowd to capture the Eastern Conference title. While metro sports fans lament the fortunes of the Royals and the Chiefs, is this a franchise that is finally doing something right on and off the field?

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > The Politics of Work-Family Policies in France, Germany and Japan
Patricia Boling, Associate Professor, Department of
Political Science, Perdue University
Low fertility countries in Europe and Asia have adopted new work-family reconciliation policies, with varied results. Boling analyzes the politics of work-family reconciliation policies in three conservative welfare states, arguing that in this policy area, politics gets in the way of policy learning, making it difficult to borrow the "best practices" of other countries. The reasons for this differ, but relate to policy histories and repertoires, political institutions, labor markets that exact high opportunity costs from mothers who spend time at home with children, and cultural expectations about good mothering.

I am still able to install backtrack, it's just that after computer reboots, it doesn't show grub screen. During backtrack install I get this error, I'm not sure what is wrong. My hard drive is SATA. I had windows 7 installed first. Please help. Thanks


text: Was it Michelle or Lori? Below is a link to Michelle Kwans Dream of Desdimona. What is extremely clear to me is that that girl could interpret ANYTHING! Lori Nichol was terrific though at the organizing of the programs. Where has this went? Some would blame the new judging system but I guess I wonder if Michelle was as great as she was or if Lori Nichol and other choreographers have just used up all of their ideas. I know that Lori does choreography for other skaters but they just dont look as complex and involved as this. I mean, even just the first 10 seconds of DOD has more stuff going on than some skaters for an entire program. So many skaters now have snippets of involved movement but the majority, bar Yu Na, sometimes Mao and Rochette, have programs full of stroking and jumps. There does not even seem to be an attempt to create a mood. Perhaps its that Michelle made it look so easy that I am taking for granted its complexity but I just wish more skaters, especially women would lend themselves to an all encompassing style. Chime in guys.

- - Nitro SubZero 2010 Review (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/snowboard-reviews/26449-nitro-subzero-2010-review.html)
Nitro SubZero 2010 Review
Location: Snow Summit and Bear Mtn CA.
Conditions: packed powder, but got a little slushy towards 1 or so, bluebird.
Setup: Ridden with L/XL Union Sierra Contact SLs and Burton Freestyle boots (10.5)
First Impression: Wow this board is flexy, this is also my first ever ride on a rocker board so i thought the shape of the gull wing camber looked pretty cool and i spent a min or two putting it on the ground and spinning it lol.
Size: 152cm
Weight: Pretty light, but just a tad heaver than my 148 stairmaster, prob just cause it is 152 compared to 148.
Flex: I don't think i can stress this enough; it is very very flexy both longitudinally and torsionally, and i am a light rider, 6'0 and 140 lbs. on my stairmaster i was terrible with presses and they prob looked like i was trying my hardest to press and i could prob only get a few inches off a box, but with the sub zero, i enjoyed having my nose or tail clearly off the box and i didn't have to put much effort into it.
Since this was my first ride on a rocker board i decided to take it easy on the first few runs and hit up a long mellow green to get used to this new camber type. The gull wing camber really threw me for a trip! i have read so much about rocker boards being "catch free" and really playful and having all the control between your feet instead of outside the bindings, and all of this was true! i just had to experience it for myself. The first few turns were a little shaky cause on this board the turn initiates like a second later than i was used to as it is initiated between your feet rather than outside the bindings. Once i got used to turning and riding with the rocker after a few runs i was having a blast just riding. It is really amazing at how hard it is to catch an edge, i don't know if it is just this board, but my impression is that rocker boards are VERY forgiving and i now know why they are loved so much in the freestyle community. The side cut is a little odd on this one cause it has a very small radius in the middle and a large one on the tips. This prob makes the board less hooky at the tip and tail, so when you get the board on edge and start to really use the side cut the board can really fling you into some tight turns once you engage the inner side cut. The side cut is going to take some getting used to for me as i am used to riding radial side cuts.
The board was actually more stable than I expected it to be as it is prob the softest board I have ever hand flexed. I never felt out of control going fast, and I bombed a few runs just to test it out and the board handles speed pretty well. I just prefer my o-matic celebrity for high speeds, I feel like camber just can grip in a way that rocker cant, they celebrity is also much stiffer. If you are looking to bomb runs on this board, it can do it, however there are better boards for the job. This board really excels in the park, and can handle all mtn. riding, but it wont be the best for high speeds.
I have not ridden any other rocker boards so all I can really say is that it has less pop than my stairmaster, but it does pop pretty well. I feel I just have to load up the tail a little more, but the pop is much smoother than my stairmaster as it was pretty snappy, all I can really say about this board is that it is smooth in terms of pop, if anyone knows what I mean haha.
It is a twin board so that pretty much sums it up, but I did ride much better switch on this board than any other board, but that is just due to the rocker.
Overall Impression:
ROCKER IS AMAZING! I cant count the number of times the rocker on this board saved me from catching an edge as I was trying more new stuff in the park I really wouldnt feel comfortable trying on my stairmaster, but I felt much more safe on this board. Rocker is really great for if you are feeling lazy and dont want to have to concentrate on riding so much. The board was actually really hard to skate on. I can go down a mellow green one footed on my stairmaster, but I could hardly turn this board one footed. I think it is a combo of the beveled base (raised edges between the feet) and the rocker that makes it so that when the board is flat, there is almost no edge contact. I just need to get used to skating on it. This board was soo much fun for me, as it takes very little effort to butter. This board is EASILY the most fun to ride out of everything I have ridden. I rode the board from 8:30 am to around 9 pm with about an hour lunch, and I loved every minute of it. All this said, I think the snowboarding world has found another rocker convert.
Questions are welcome! =)
Great review. I have the Sub Pop. I was trying to sell it because I have two other boards, but it is a super fun board. You should try it in powder. Despite a perfectly centered stance, it's super easy, and a lot of fun.
The edges were razor sharp from the factory, so I detuned the crap out of it, and surprisingly it remained stable bombing some runs. Obviously not my first or even 5th choice for a board to bomb on, but it worked.
I never rode it in chop/moguls but I imagine it would be a train wreck.
I liked the ride on mine (152 Sub Pop) but the inserts were drilled off and Nitro was retarded about it so F them! ;)
The review is good but just the switch from camber to rocker is a big change. To be fair you would have to compare it to something more similar. Good work though and good to see you liked it. Are your inserts drilled true center?
I got the SubZero, and not the SubPop (the late release edition) cause i heard about the off center inserts and wanted to avoid it. I measured mine when i took it out of the bag and they are centered, i think they fixed the insert issue for the actual 2009-10 model release.
No way, I was just testing out my new sub-zero at Bear this weekend too! I was riding on Saturday.
I got the 155. Pretty sure its centered, got out the tape-measure and it looked good on each end.
Your review is pretty much spot on to what I was going to say. Definitely a super fun board.
Takes a little getting used though. I found coming off a Burton Custom, I had a big tendency to over-press and eat heavy shit on small tricks. I just gotta get used to putting minimal effort into my presses now. But my spins got a lot better with this board though, I dk if thats cause of the board or just because I was stoked and more down to try harder. Either way, I'm glad I got this stick.
haha keep an eye out for my set-up at bear Enigmatic, i will be there as much as possible week of the 22cnd.
I will watch for a 155 one haha.
I read somewhere that this board breaks easily, is that true?
Also: do you guys think I can strap my Burton bindings on the Nitro SubZero?
8 Attachment(s)
I've had 2 hard seasons on mine, not broke yet. With a 4x4 disc your Burtons will fit.
mine has held up so far, even showing less signs of wear than my other boards at the same age, the top sheet seems to not get chipped as much, it feels like better topsheet material =)
yes, as nivek said, burton bindings will fit if they have 4x4 discs

Hurry only 1 left!
The totally abstract paintings by Rothko did not suddenly emerge as the result of one idea. His work was the result of many years of looking at other artwork, including Greek vases with horizontal bands of figures, Native American art with its spiritual qualities, and the work of the European Surrealists. By 1949, his preferred format was an upright rectangular canvas or paper with two or three stacked rectangular forms varying in area but free of the picture edge. The colored bands, which he felt must be "sensuous or functional," took on a wide range of hues to which Rothko added lightness or darkness, translucency or opacity, high or low saturation, smooth or brushy textures, and contrasts of color area.

I reserved judgement about the last post about clammers, but i just had an experience of my own.
I went out to the tidal flats to catch the fallling tide and the returning blackies. Yesteday, i saw where the clammers were working and scouted out an area a half mile away. This morning, after i had shot my blackie, a clammer comes down the shoreline. Thinking he will keep going once he sees me, i stand up and move the decoys into deeper water. he then stop not 50 yards directly in front of me and starts digging.
the only explanation for this behavior that i could recon, was that he is passive aggressively trying to get me off 'his' flats. I put down my gun and walk over to him. I ask why he would walk a half a mile and choose right in front of me in a 500 acre tidal flat to start digging. he was pleasant about it, but claimed he didnt see me and was just planning to dig there. I said its not even safe and that if a duck comes, im shooting it. I walked away muttering and said i woudl move farther down. I guess he finally realized how rude he was and said that he would move.
I guess he wasnt trying to get rid of me, but it just seemed so odd.

I know this has been asked here several times, but I'm hoping my situation will be different...
I'm currently driving an '05 Infiniti G35x and I was thinking of getting rid of it (selling it to my mother) in the fall and picking up an 07+ Chevy Tahoe.
My reasoning for this is because in the next few years, I'll be popping the question and hopefully having some kids. My original train of thought was that if I get the truck out of the way with, it's one less expense to manage once we are married and have kids.
My friend who works at a bank was telling me that it's a bad idea and that I should just drive the G35 into the ground, because with a $20k car loan, I would be unable to get a mortgage for anything over $360k.
In the next few years, I will be planning to buy a house with the wife, and we both make pretty decent coin (she's a business manager at a BMW dealer, and I'm an underwriter for an insurance company), so I figure we should be alright.
Any input?

Cost projection sought for new Nashua turnpike exit
By KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent | January 20. 2014 10:17PM
The Nashua Regional Planning Commission has released a Request for Qualifications to develop a planning and pre-engineering cost estimate for the proposed Exit 36 southbound off-ramp at the New Hampshire and Massachusetts border in Tyngsborough, Mass.
This week, the NRPC will host a mandatory pre-proposal briefing intended to provide guidance on the expectations of the project to potential consultants, according to the NRPC website and newsletter.
Acknowledging that the cost could be significant, Lozeau said previously that there could be a financial benefit if the two states partner together on the transportation project, as access to other highway funds could become available and potentially mitigate some of the cost.
"I look at this as a really remarkable opportunity to do something regionally across two states," Lozeau said at the time.

Re: Prediction Thread - Ravens @ Steelers
I will now make my prediction for the game now that Jen has been officially ruled out.
Despite what their stats say, the Steelers are far from the number 1 defense in the league. Part of their defensive success has been down to who they've played. As it stands, they have only played two championship calibre QB's, one who they were torched by in week 1 (Peyton), and the other who is not playing championship football right now, actually it's pretty below average football (Eli). The QB's that they have lost have been to average vets who are way past their primes (Hassleback, and Palmer). The Steelers strength on defense lies in their secondary. All three of their corners have been having good seasons, especially Cortez Allen in the slot, and both their safeties have been playing at a pro bowl level, and that's with the hair out. However, it looks like both their starting safeties (Ryan Clark, and Allen) will be out for this game, and that was really where their strength was. Their weakness despite popular belief is in their front 7.
Their pass rush has been inconsistent this year, Woodley has been having a stellar year, but his production has been effected because of the ineptitude of James Harrison, who is arguably having his worst year as a Steeler. The Steelers also have some serious issues on their Dline, much like ours, they cannot dominate the line of scrimmage. Casey Hampton has been terrible this year, along with Ziggy Hood, who may be the worst starting 5 technique in football right now. Brett Kiesel is the best player out of the three, but has been far from spectacular this year. Ziggy Hood, and Kiesel had decent games against KC, but it was going up against a weak interior Oline that is missing one or two starters. At LB, they have an absolute stud in Timmons, who is finally emerging as the best ILB in the AFCN, and has been having his best year as a pro. He will soon be in the same class as Patrick Willis, Brian Cushing, Novoro Bowman, and the likes. He can do it all, drop back in coverage, stuff the run, and bring inside blitz. IMO he is the best player on that defense, and we really need to find a way to take him out of the game, second level blocking has to be good, which is why we should start Reid at LG, or move KO inside for this one. Larry Foote is a servicable LB at best at this point, and looks better on highlight film because of who he's playing next to.
So with that said, here is how our offense should attack their D.
Up front, move Oher to the right side, and start McKinnie at LT. This may sound a bit crazy, but we could essentially neutralize the Steelers pass rushing presence from the left side with McKinnie who is our best pure OT in pass pro, and will completely dominate an under performing Harrison, who hasn't had the greatest of match ups against McKinnie in the past anyway. Oher provides much better pass pro than KO at this point on the right side, and I am slightly worried with KO matching up with Woodley, who has been very good this year. Moving KO inside would make our Oline much stronger, and I think would over power the under whelming Steelers Dline, even with the crowd noise, if our aim is to run the ball early.
Use Ray Rice and Pierce early and often, with Leach on the field for as many snaps as possible. We can run the ball on this D, they aren't all that great against the run, and haven't been since 2010. Adapt to the ZBS, and get this D on their heels to begin with, we need to get second level blocks from KO to take Timmons out of the game, and Yanda vs Ziggy is a complete miss match I am very much looking forward to. Hopefully after having success running the ball, and maybe taking some crowd noise away, we can start taking some shots down field, but we cannot afford to go one dimensional like we did in Houston, this is a very good pass defense, and will make us pay for uncreative routes and the usual BS you see from this offense on the road. We need to take some shots down the middle with Pitta and Boldin, because without Clark, and Allen, that is going to be a huge hole in their D. That's where I see most of the passing production coming from in this game, right down the middle, we need to be aware of Timmons too though as he is very solid in coverage.
With that said, my stat predictions are...
Flacco gets 2 TD's, a pick (by Ike Taylor), 220 yards. Finishes 19 for 30. He will be sacked 3 times, two by Woodley, and one by Timmons
Rice runs for 102 yards on 22 carries, Pierce gets 6 runs for 30 yards.
Boldin goes for 65 yards on 6 catches, Pitta gets 7 catches for 70 yards, Torrey Smith gets a TD and 3 receptions for 50 yards, Jacoby gets a TD with a 15 yard reception, and Rice gets two receptions for 20 yards. We score 20 points, and get 353 yards of total offense. Tucker gets two FG's, one from 40, one from 25.
Now onto their offense, and our defense.
The Steelers have improved drastically of late up front, their Oline has now become one of their main strengths. Mike Adams has stepped up as a good run blocking RT, and the Steelers interior line is now among the best in the league with Colon and Pouncey playing well together. Max Starks is their main weakness, and he's playing on the left side, so Suggs will hopefully have a good day as he has had in the past vs Starks. Kruger and Upshaw vs Adams should be interesting.
The Steelers are running a commitee of backs this year, featuring Dwyer and Redman, two big strong backs, that don't offer much other than pounding the ball up the middle (which they've done well this year so far.). Our Dline is going to have to step up in this one, as our main weakness has been stopping the run up the middle. Terrence Cody played well last week, and we need more of the same from him. Most of the Steelers success up the middle is down to Colon and Pouncey, who have been opening up some big holes for Redmand and Dwyer, we need to make sure we stop that, as the Steelers will be running the ball a ton of times with big Jen out. Leftwich is not going to be throwing all that much. The Steelers have a very talented receiving core, even without Antonio Brown, they are going to beat our secondary more times than not now that we are down to our last options with so many injuries there. Cary Williams has been playing well lately, and will hopefully continue to do so, but outside of him, I am very worred about how the likes of Chykie Brown, and Corey Grahame will fair against the likes of Mike Wallace and Sanders. The good news is that Leftwich will be throwing them the ball, and I don't expect him to be throwing all that often anyway, he is best throwing it down field with his strong but slow release, but Todd Haily likes short and quick passes, which is just not his game. It is going to allow us to essentially stack the box, and overload on blitzes, don't be surprised to see Pollard spend 90 % of the game roaming around the box and coming up in run support.
In order to stop the Steelers offense, IMO we should do the following basic gameplan....
Stack the box early on, with even 9 men at times, the Steelers are going to be running the ball more than usual. I wont be surprised to see something crazy like over 35 carries between Dwyer and Redman. Leftwich can't escape the pocket, and that's the key in this game IMO, once the pocket breaks down, I can see Suggs getting to him often and will get one or two sacks. We need to overload blitz against them, and pretty much challenge Leftwich to throw the ball and try to win the game off his arm. It's just a question on whether or not we will be able to stop the run.
And the stats...
Leftwich will throw 2 picks to Cary Williams, and Reed. He will go for 200 yards, with no TD's. He will be sacked 4 times, and will lose a fumble.
Redman will pick up 60 yards on 17 carries, Dwyer will get 90 on 20 carries and a rushing TD.
The Steelers will score 10 points on us, with a TD and two FG's. Picking up 350 total yards of offense.
Suggs will get two sacks going up against Max Starks, Kruger and Ellerbe get a sack each. Reed and Williams get an interception each, and Ngata will cause a fumble which will be recovered by DeAngelo Tyson.
Final score- 20-13 Ravens.

Re: Prediction Thread - Ravens @ Steelers
I think the Ravens will win. But nobody can predict specifics. And, Manning did not torch the Steelers defense. Did you see the stats? Manning threw for about 10 more yards than Roethlisberger. They both threw for 2 TD's. By that logic, Roethlisberger torched the Broncos D too. Ben threw a pick, but I think that was during a end of game drive for a lead. And of course I think Manning came back after that for a score with the good field position. Don't forget about Rainey. He is a guy that can turn the corner, and fast.
I want the Steelers to come out blitzing and slinging the football. If they lose 50 - 0 then so be it. I don't want them to come out and play a wait and see game waiting to see that the Ravens will bring. Go all out or go all the way.
As I said, I predict a Ravens win. Maybe by two touchdowns. However, if they can pressure Flacco I think they can force some mistakes. Too bad Harrison has virtually disappeared. Despite what anybody thinks or says, these games can go either way. Any outcome will not surprise me.

Re: Prediction Thread - Ravens @ Steelers
It won't be the usual classic defensive showdown. I think I, like most, had this down as a loss before the season. With Ben out, as much as you still have to beat the other 52 guys as well, it's hard to pick against a Ravens team that's won the last two regular season games at Heinz Field.
Think it'll be error filled. Pittsburgh 16, Baltimore 19. Both TDs probably come off long plays, but Tucker has the last laugh.

By Rob Kelly
Carl Jenkinson admits the reception the Arsenal players received on tour in Asia last summer "blew him away" - and he can't wait to head back again this month.
The Gunners squad set off to the Far East in less than two weeks for matches, training sessions and events in Malaysia, China and Hong Kong.
And if last year's experience is anything to go by, Jenkinson will enjoy every single minute of it.
"We're all really looking forward to it," he told Arsenal Player. "We enjoyed it last year and we're really looking forward to getting back out there and seeing our fans again.
"To see [the supporters being] so passionate and to see their love for the Club and the players was amazing. I can't say expected it to be like that - it really blew me away.
"We don't get the opportunity to see them very often and to see the love and the passion they have for the Club was really refreshing. It gives everyone a boost at the start of the season."
It was something of a whirlwind experience for Jenkinson last summer, as within weeks of joining Arsenal he was whisked off to the other side of the world on tour.
"It was an amazing start for me," he said. "It made me realise that I was at a club like Arsenal now and to go to such a fantastic place and play football was a real privilege.
"There was a lot going on and it was all new to me, but maybe it was a good thing to be away with the squad for that period of time.
"It was probably the ideal start for me to be away with the boys. We're all together the whole time on tour so that was good for me and it was nice to get to know the lads really well from the off."

It takes slow, little steps to start something small growing into something big and expansive, but it's worth it. You may need to take baby steps to get out and experience all of that, but it's all right -- just make sure you do take that first step. After all, what would have happened if the first seeds didn't grow to make something like, say, a national park or a beautiful meadow?
...yeah, I got nothin'. And I don't know how that swirly tree is going to turn into an evergreen but artistic license says it will and who am I to argue?

Re: Outside the Cubical

Re: Below H20
This was inspired by Biscayne National Park, which is 95% underwater and also my favorite one. It's not your traditional national park, in fact none of the parks in Florida are, but in a derby focused on trees and mountains, I thought they deserved a mention too. There are plenty of open underwater spaces to explore here, and personally, I'd rather be at the bottom of a coral reef than at the top of a mountain. Barracudas over bears, any day.

Irvine: Wants to establish environment that encourages entrepreneurship and creativity
October 28, 2012
From Washington to the Colorado Statehouse you have the opportunity and responsibility to elect candidates who will, among other issues, support economic growth and get us back on track.
Throughout the communities in our district we clearly see the effects of a suppressed economy. Colorado's unemployment rate is higher than the national and if we're not losing jobs, people have given up looking. Business growth is essential to putting revenue back into Colorado. The state cannot continue raising fees and taxes to replenish the general fund.
As a voter, it's not easy weeding through the mailers and rhetoric to get a clear sense on where candidates stand on issues. As a candidate in this race, I am fortunate to be running against two legislators with voting records. This particular race is about proven track records. Because of their votes on business-related issues, and the knowledge I will be an advocate for small business, the National Federation of Independent Business has given me their endorsement. I am proud to have their confidence.
We have distractions. This race has two Democrats battling each other; with those involved spending tens of thousands of dollars on attacks. One opponent was the Democrat Speaker Pro Tem but went Independent after her party selected someone else to be Speaker of the House. The other opponent professes to be a moderate but has one of the lowest tax voting scores at 4 percent among both parties.
Yes, I am the Republican candidate; in fact, the only one. We expect thousands to be spent soon to distract from our campaign as well; probably focusing on untruths regarding women's issues. Ironically, these big spenders are concerned about not having enough money for education! Let us look beyond the attacks and not lose sight of the bigger picture.
I believe in the American free enterprise system that built our great nation and is the base from which we all prosper. There are over 4,000 new regulations coming our way that will further stifle business. We don't need more government standing in our way; we need to re-establish an environment that encourages entrepreneurship and creativity.
At a recent debate one of my opponents used the words government and efficiency in the same sentence. Really? It is the private sector that survives and thrives on efficiency and productivity and we need to give it more room and freedom to succeed.
Our nation was built on ingenuity, hard work, risk and personal responsibility. Success is to be admired and encouraged, not penalized. Businesses, large and small, create jobs and put revenue back into our communities.
Hard-working families are cutting back so asking them to give more is not the answer. It is critical and beyond time that Colorado works to make our state attractive again for new businesses and gives existing industry its core back. We need only look at successful neighboring states to see that this approach works. Growth and prosperity are the key from which we all benefit.
It will be an honor to be your state representative and I am asking for your vote. Please learn more about my experiences and qualifications at http://www.IrvineForColorado.com.
Debra Irvine is the Republican candidate for House District 61, and resides in Breckenridge.

I have been looking at the data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and it looks like flu season has made an early exit from many parts of the country. That would be a welcome blessing. But cold season is still in full swing and so many of the parents I am seeing in the office continue to say, "it just seems impossible that my child can have this many colds in one year!". If you have a child between the ages of 6 months and 3 years of age, and they go to school, you are probably one of these parents.
The first several winters that you child starts day care or pre-school are pretty tough....not only in terms of "being away from your child", but also for the number of viral illnesses they get. Many a parent has called me "CRAZY" when I tell them that it is not unusual at all for your child to get 7-10 viral infections during the first fall/winter season that their child is around other children. In fact, I know that there have been several families over the years that changed pediatricians just because the parent felt certain that their child had an "immune problem" due to their frequent coughs and colds. True problems with immunity do exist in pediatrics but they don't typically present with recurrent coughs and colds, but rather with far more serious illnesses. Thankfully these are rare.
Parents with younger children know their pediatrician far better than they really want to during those first several years. That is another reason that you want to find a pediatrician that is not only close to your house but that you really get along with!
So with all of that being said, hang in there for about another 6-8 weeks and the winter viral season truly will be exiting and children (and their parents) will all start to be healthier for the rest of spring. I promise once your youngest child reaches 3 years of age your visits to the pediatrician during the winter months become less and less frequent.

Q: How do you plan to vote on the "Prayer Initiative" (officially known as Measure I) allowing clergy to chose whether or not to mention Jesus Christ in their invocations before council meetings?
GENE GAYNOR: I have no problem since the measure allows for any clergy to offer themselves for the initial prayer.But what are the odds that a god other that Abraham's god would be allowed? After all, this is the town where sheriff's deputies openly supported people who harassed a Pagan store that tried to open several years ago.
ARNOLD RODIO: I strongly support a person's right to pray as they see fit. However, the City attorney has stated in a City council meeting that the current policy is illegal. I believe that this could have been resolved without the political posturing.Parris's opponent doesn't seem to say much here.
R. REX PARRIS: As most people know by now, I not only plan on voting yes, I have campaigned for passage of this initiative and consider it critical that our community overwhelmingly show that we believe in freedom of speech and freedom of religion. The question as phrased above, is inaccurate. The initiative actually protects prayer to any deity, including Jesus Christ, as dictated by the prayer giver's faith. The threat delivered to the city by the Americal Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) specifically sought to exclude any mention of Jesus Christ in prayer, hence the actual wording of the initiative.And again, what are the odds that other gods would be allowed? This is the mayor who only asks evangelical Christian ministers to pray at city council meetings. And put the tab for the Christian state of the city address on the city's tab. When this was found out, he quickly paid for it himself.
DAVID TALBOT: No city ballot initiative can overturn the Constitution of the United States, so it doesn't matter how anyone votes, only that we will be sued with no insurance to cover the cost for sure if it passes and likely anyway if it doesn't.I certainly agree with this candidate.
LYLE TALBOT: "I" don't attend religious services, so I'll leave it to those who do.I suppose he could be one of us, but wouldn't he have to sit though some Jesus meetings himself?
