Random thoughts, cheap shots and bon mots
Registration is now open for SCALE 9X — register now by clicking on the winking penguin. Also, apologies to the San Francisco Chronicle's Scott Ostler, whose six words in this blog's title often appear on his sports columns.
Whatever our opinions of Facebook might be, I think we can all agree that the social network which garnered Mark Zuckerberg Time Magazine's "Man of the Year" serves humanity not by releasing any relevant information about the inner workings of government or anything like that, but serves as the biggest human time sink in history. But as such, we're going to start with it, and . . . .
Give a hand where needed: Ken Starks and I have worked together in the past on the Lindependence Project — and we may do so again this year (more on this another time) — and his baby, the HeliOS Project, does great things for kids in the Austin, Texas, area. Specifically, the project provides castoff computers which run Linux to underprivileged kids in the area. The HeliOS Project is in a contest where top three finishers in popularity — you have to "like" them, in the Facebook mode of liking — are awarded a monetary prize for the most "likes." Even if there wasn't an award at the end of this contest 12 hours from now, you should still "like" this project. Go here if you're on Facebook and give them a click. This just in . . . HelioOS Project made it as one of the top three finishers at the Rock A Charity Event on Feb. 18. HeliOS, Well Aware, and English at Work are the three top-finishing charities in the contest. Congrats, Ken!
After returning from Tempe, Ariz., losing a fight with a cold and then rallying, we can now talk about . . .
FUDCon finishes with a flurry: Literally — many of my Fedora colleagues who attended FUDCon in Tempe, Ariz., at the beautiful campus of Arizona State were stranded there after Monday thanks to snowstorms in what seemed to be every state east of the Rockies. Without going into great detail — after all, I did that already as Larry the Fedora Guy (you knew that was coming) — what I did want to say was that events like this are great for getting people face-to-face and working on a common goal. Eternal thanks go to Robyn Bergeron, Ryan Rix, Paul Frields, Ian Weller, Max Spevack and others who put on this great event.
From there we turn up the temperature . . . .
Trying the new hotness: Adam Williamson invites those who are interested to give GNOME 3 a workout: Adam writes, "Fedora will be running three test days to aid in the final polishing and stabilization of the GNOME 3 release, and make sure Fedora 15 provides a good desktop experience. This is a great opportunity to help both GNOME and Fedora development and help make sure you can work effectively in GNOME 3 when it lands on your desktop." If you're so inclined, go for it.
And, in closing, the editorial "we" reminds you of the last three words of The Heart Sutra: "Don't Waste Time."
(Fedora ambassador Larry Cafiero runs Redwood Digital Research in Felton, California, and is an associate member of the Free Software Foundation. He is also one of the founders of the Lindependence Project.)

LtFSG said "…what I did want to say was that events like this are great for getting people face-to-face and working on a common goal."
Now just hold on, there is no way that geeks will ever "get together" for anything other than a lan party. That part
about "working on a common goal" LOL.
The comment above was intended to be sarcasm. Linux and FOSS
are Community. Community means common goals. As for that face to face stuff…. Having lunch with LtFSG in Felton, CA,
coffee with Ken Starks at 0:darkthirty in the morning in Austin, TX and more coffee with my buddy solo and his wife in Peoria, IL, yes that Peoria, have been the high points of my travels through Linux Land. The Colonel is not l33t enough to carry the floppies for these guys but they treat me as one of the "community". I can live in this community.
As said in the original post, go help the heliOS project, please! Don't waste time.
February 3, 2011 at 10:21 pm
Now that I've been reading up on what's in GNOME 3, I must say I feel a bit disappointed. My strong impression is that GNOME's big improvements are all related to the organization of windows and programs, not to better integration of activities (like an improved dbus) or cool context interpretation (like Nepomuk). I'll give Gnome 3 a spin with my F15 install, I guess, but I'm tempted to switch to KDE, which I've previously only used inside Qemu. Am I wrong? Does G3 have advanced features underneath the eye candy?
And are we to expect a full roll-out of systemd with F15, as previously announced?
Thanks again for the informative blog as well as all your other volunteer work.

#YesAllWomen has jumped the shark
It's official. #YesAllWomen isn't just a hashtag; it's a social media movement—and an incredibly popular one at that. #YesAllWomen was created in response to University of California, Santa Barbara killer Elliot Rodger and his misogyny-filled manifesto and videos. Days after the shooting, #YesAllWomen has continued to trend on Twitter, inspiring women and men to share deeply poignant, vulnerable sentiments about sexual assault, domestic abuse, and modern-day manifestations of misogyny.
#YesAllWomen began as a small but beautiful silver lining to a horrific act of violence, but it has its dangers. Sasha Weiss of the New Yorker praised #YesAllWomen as the "vibrant revenge of women who have been gagged and silenced." In many ways, this is true. #YesAllWomen has led to an outpouring of simultaneously enlightening and disturbing examples of common-day occurrences of female harassment in the workplace and world of dating. These, in turn, have inspired a number of men to tweet out their support and recognition of the dangers and double standards that misogyny has wrought.
However, #YesAllWomen also transformed a highly disturbed, socially isolated college student into a figure somehow worthy of legitimate discourse about the serious issues of misogyny. While it is inspiring to see positive conscious-raising tweets about the female experience come out of a national tragedy, there is also something dangerous about taking a deranged 22-year-old at his words. We don't know what exactly drove Rodger to violence, and we can't conclude that misogyny over mental illness or social rejection was the root cause. This is by no means a defense of Rodger, but a reminder of the deeply grave, disturbing, and complex circumstances that gave rise to #YesAllWomen.
These problems are only exacerbated as the #YesAllWomen movement grows. More members of the Twitterverse are coopting the hashtag and attaching it to concerns that seem relatively trivial. The perilousness of ubiquity with a hashtag—or any buzzword, for that matter—is that people can too easily forget its origin. #YesAllWomen began as a way to somehow find empowerment and positivity after a brutal murder in which a gunman killed six people and then himself. You wouldn't think people needed to be reminded of those horrific details, but some of the tweets suggest otherwise.
For example, there are multiple tweets that are variations of "#YesAllWomen because I've never seen a hot husband with a fat wife on a sitcom." The gender norms and unfair female body standards perpetuated on television are important to recognize and challenge. However, do they really belong in a discussion inspired by a mass murder? Or let's temporarily forget about something as extreme as the massacre that spawned #YesAllWomen. Lena Dunham used #YesAllWomen to share her experience of being physically threatened in high school by a boy she romantically rejected. Do sitcoms featuring attractive wives with shlubby guys warrant the same level of concern as a story of physical intimidation for being a woman? Grouping them both under #YesAllWomen indicates they do.

I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
Isn't it actually called Amateur MMA...?
MMA Officials London, Essex and East Anglia representative
90% of "pro" MMA fights in the UK are basically white collar MMA.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
If you are thinking about picking up a lucky grand you will probably have to sell a couple hundred tickets buddy
Average ticket deal - £5 (200 tickets)
Occasional ticket deal - £10 (100 tickets)
If your friend for £1000 either he sold a shed load of tickets or he stepped in last minute to fight someone who should have beaten him that had sold hundreds of tickets himself.
You normally dont get paid for white collar boxing apart from tickets, its usually just novice interclubs basically.
You can get a few quid in Unlicensed boxing, (Pro rules without a license), but you normally gotta take on a heavy favourite in his own back yard.
You wont get a grand in even Pro MMA unless you are half decent or a sacraficial late replacement!
If anyone ever does an MMA movie on white collar MMA they should call it "Enter the Fantasist" and set it on a remote island where an eccentric millionaire has a grand prix event with a thousand quid as the winner takes all prize
Any opinions I express on this forum are entirely personal opinions and it should not be assumed that they reflect the official view of any organisations I am connected with
white collar , just lol ... i want to fight , but i dont really want to fight that hard
If you need a friend, get a dog !

Hi, when I was pregnant I was having a difficulty defecating as I was constipated. Everytime I defecate, it bleeds. So I wonder what causes that?

Hemorrhoids plague many women during and after childbirth. They are a result of chronic constipation or aggressive straining during labor and birth. The best thing you can do to prevent hemorrhoids is drink plenty of water everyday, at least 6 to 8 full glasses. You should also consume plenty of leafy green vegetables as part of well-balanced diet. You will need to pay especially close attention to diet and water consumption if you are taking an iron supplement.
For hemorrhoids that are already in place, witch hazel can be very soothing. My chiropractor also suggested that women with hemorrhoids elevate their feet when sitting on the toilet to defecate, as this helps to get the body in a position closer to nature and reduces the strain. If the bleeding and pain remain persistent, you may need to consider getting an exam from a medical professional.

Mom2Many has given some excellent advice.
Progesterone raises as soon as conception occurs, in an effort to sustain pregnancy. It will rise dramatically during pregnancy and can contribute to constipation.
Liquid Chlorophyll can be an easy supplement to take and it is wonderful during pregnancy for nourishing mum and baby, for increasing iron levels in mum (helps you avoid having to take an iron supplement that causes constipation) and also loosens the bowels which makes it easier to have a bowel movement.
You can also get your chlorophyll through leafy greens, as mom2many mentioned, and an easy way to do this is to make green smoothies. Green smoothies can be made in a blender with fruits of your choice, and then add spinach or kale or green leafy lettuce or greens. The sweetness of the fruits help to cover the "green" taste and it's actually very pleasant. My favorite is bananas, pineapple and orange or strawberries.
I hope that during your next pregnancy you'll have some new ideas on how to avoid hemorrhoids. Drinking plenty of water, getting plenty of fiber and taking in plenty of greens/chlorophyll should help tremendously.
Warm regards,

| Dear FDA:
I am a mother of two children, ages 3 and 5, that have recently been diagnosed with Celiac disease. The following 'gluten-free' labeling is very important for the health of my children. It would also be extremely useful to me as a consumer. I am colleged educated, but even I am challenged at times to determine if a product is gluten-free. Thank you for your help in this important matter.
We encourage you to adopt a regulation on the use of 'gluten-free' on product labels that is in line with that which has been used in Europe and other countries (including the USA via the Codex Alimentarius) for many years--20 PPM for products that contain naturally gluten-free ingredients, and 200 PPM for products that have been rendered gluten-free such as those that may contain Codex Alimentarius quality wheat starch. The formal adoption of these existing regulations will allow for the continued importation of excellent, safe European products that are labeled 'gluten-free.'
It is very important that you do not adopt a 'zero tolerance' regulation in this matter because doing so will cause many gluten-free food companies to discontinue their use of the term 'gluten-free' on their labels out of fear of litigation--which is counterproductive for all people with this disease (most, if not all, gluten-free food companies do not grow, transport or mill the gluten-free grains that they use as ingredients--a fact that will make them vulnerable to litigation if a zero tolerance level is adopted). Last, the inclusion of trace levels of gluten in the diets of those with celiac disease have been shown to be safe in many scientific studies, for more details please see:
Thank you,

Hopefully, his skating agility and his defensive awareness will improve. He needs to work on his pivoting, his turning to skate backwards, his first couple of steps. Anyone can skate a straight line. Today's game is about wiggling around, making tight turns, skating in a phone booth. You have to be able to maneuver, get a little space and throw a puck on net."'

Hey folks. I know I said that the last post was the last post, but I've got good reasons for stopping by here again. One, a few readers recently subscribed here, while all the action is happening at the new place over there; and two, a few old subscribers have yet to click on the new site and re-subscribe.
I'm not much of a self-promoter, so really, I wanted to send out this quick post because what you're missing by not clicking over at the new site is – specifically – an excellent interview with Megan Stielstra, author of Everyone Remain Calm. She's a writer, the Literary Director and a performer with Chicago's 2nd Story, a teacher at Columbia College and the University of Chicago, and a mother. All I did was ask a few questions, but what she's done is share a wealth of writing experience and give readers what feels like a mini-writing workshop.
Really. Go there. Read Part 1 of the interview, where she talks about digital publication and the courage it takes to write – and tell – our stories. Then, study Part 2, because that's where the mini-workshop happens, where she discusses good days and bad days and what to do with your writer's block.
I'd hate for you to miss it.
And, if you decide to subscribe to the new site while you're there, all the more fun!

Looks like we are going back to the old school days where you could hurt someone with your huge and bulky phone.
Though Apple is Apple, I suppose, and if they really want to release a jumbo phone, I doubt this issue is going to stop them But I, personally, see little need.
REPORT: No it won't
Why don't they just poll iphone owners and find out what we want. Personally I would only want a tiny bit bigger and I love the current slimness.

Korres has a long-standing reputation of only using eco-friendly ingredients and containers.

One school is telling the Easter Bunny to take a hike. Their decision to cancel an egg hunt due to religious concerns has some parents upset.
Parents were asked to donate eggs for an "academic egg hunt" at Heritage Elementary School Wednesday. However, Monday they received an email from the teacher that egg hunt was off.
The email stated that the principal had concerns over activities related to or centered around a religious holiday and that they would go ahead and leave out the egg part.
It didn't sit well with parent Karen Hensley, who said she was upset when she heard because the word Easter was already being left out on purpose.
She felt like the school was being overly cautious and in turn was cutting out fun for the students altogether.
"To take away what children are looking forward to, what's next? You take away Easter today and Christmas tomorrow. Let kids be kids so they can enjoy what we did when we were children," added Hensley.
In a statement, Principal Dr. Lydia Davenport said she was trying to respect religious differences in the community by not favoring one belief.
After hearing from a few parents and our phone call, the principal made some adjustments to the event to include more than just eggs so all can participate.

ALEXANDRIA, VA -- There is some good news in the latest industry report from the Association for Convenience & Fuel Retailing, which still goes by NACS. The NACS State of the Industry Report for 2012 is based on data submitted by retail companies, which reported their highest year for sales.
In 2012, according to the report, the convenience store industry posted record sales of $700.3 billion. In-store sales increased 2.2% to reach $199.3 billion, and motor fuels sales increased 2.9% to $501 billion, both record tallies. Convenience store pretax profits also hit a record with $7.2 billion in 2012, but taken as a percentage of total sales, profits only moved from 1.027% to 1.028% of total sales.
According to the NACS study, in-store sales growth last year was driven by double-digit gains in several subcategories, including alternative snacks (12.2%), which include meat snacks, along with health, energy and protein bars. Other subcategories are liquor (11.6%), cold dispensed beverages (11.3%) and sweet snacks (10.3%).

Devastated that Barack Obama overcame Mitt Romney for the U.S. presidency, Ohio coal magnate Robert Murray convened his staff and offered a prayer for the American people.
He delivered it Wednesday at a private gathering at Murray Energy Corp.'s headquarters. No word on whether those staffers had been expected to send donations to Romney's campaign fund, which expanded significantly after Murray escorted the candidate to soirées in the Buckeye battleground state.
So, in honor of Murray's prayer lamenting Obama's victory and blaming it for new layoffs at Carbon County's West Ridge mine I have decided to make my own plea to the Almighty.
Dear Ms. God:
The American people have indeed made their choice in re-electing President Obama. I believe that Americans share our Founders' principles of caring for and educating our children and helping others to build or repair their lives. Capitalism lives.
Still, one of your believers, Bob Murray, sees national weakness in the election outcome. I see strength. The Bush recession certainly put millions out of work and drove down their standard of living.
Murray's talk of "lower and lower levels of personal freedom" puzzles me, too, Ms. God. I see integrity and courage among the poor as well as the rich; we freely share with one another for the common good.
I see and feel no reduced personal freedom, either. Rather, I see Americans fighting as they always have against corporate interests that amass millions, even billions, and still slash wages and reduce benefits for their workers, if not firing them outright.
As for our young people missing out on what "America was like or might have been," it's my view that they have seen what America "was like" and want to make it better, to make health care available to all and to toil in the fields of their choosing. Some of our greatest Americans went through the crucible of the Great Depression and most emerged kind, strong and smart. So will today's Americans.
As for the takers outvoting the producers, I say to Murray, I understand your quotation from 2 Peter, chapter 1, verses 4-9, but consider this one: "St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go, I owe my soul to the company store."
Ms. God, I'm sure you will forgive Murray and his people for the decisions they "are now forced to make to preserve the very existence of any of the enterprises that you help us build." As always, you will provide guidance as to a new business model in "this drastic time" fraught with "drastic decisions."
And your model may differ markedly from Murray's, which included 102 layoffs at his West Ridge mine in Utah, 52 at his American Coal Co. in Ohio and seven at his trucking operation in Wheeling, W.Va.
I do ask one thing of you, Ms. God. Please send my kindest regards to the nine men who died in Murray's Crandall Canyon Mine in Utah in 2007, three of them while trying to find the other six. That was the epitome of selflessness.

NIAMS ARRA Chronicles
ARRA-Funded Researchers Link Autophagy Genes to Osteoporotic Bone Loss
Dateline: St. Louis, Mo.
January 5, 2011 (historical)
Photo ID: Dr. Steven Teitelbaum (center rear) with members of his lab.
Steven Teitelbaum, M.D., a recipient of grant funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), has long been an investigator of osteoporosis, a major disease in which bones become weak and subject to fracture. Now, in his laboratory at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, the ARRA support has resulted in his teams discovery of new and potentially important targets for drug therapy to reduce or prevent bone loss.
Osteoporosis is caused by a relative increase in the activity of cells called osteoclasts, which degrade bone. Common treatments for the disease center on blocking the capacity of these cells to destroy bone. The ARRA-supported work showed that a particular set of genes—known as autophagy genes for their role in a cells ability to degrade its own cellular components—are involved in bone degradation caused by osteoclasts. Using mice in which these genes are deleted, Dr. Teitelbaums team found that the rodents were resistant to the kind of osteoporosis that sometimes accompanies menopause. "These autophagy genes," says the scientist, "may be drug targets to prevent bone loss."
According to Dr. Teitelbaum, the ARRA funding—administered through the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases—has allowed his group to perform the experiments and to hire a senior technician to breed the mice required by the protocol. "In our research, inhibiting bone loss continues to be an important venue for treating osteoporotic diseases," says Dr. Teitelbaum. "The information gathered from this ARRA grant has added to our knowledge base of anti-bone loss therapeutic targets."
In the United States, more than 40 million people either already have osteoporosis, or are at high risk due to low bone mass.

2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS55 AMG Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS55 AMG based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
The relay which turns the airmatic suspension pump on may fail causing the pump to run continuously. This can result in failure of the pump motor or a dead battery as the pump motor will continue to run after the car is turned off. Also, Worn airmatic pump mount bushings can causes noises in the front axle while driving on bumpy roads or a buzzing noise while the pump is running.
Lack of audio or cell phone functionality may be related to the failure of the audio gateway module.
Rear air springs (bellows) may develop leaks, which causes the air pump to run more often to maintain ride height. Our technicians recommend that leaking air springs be replaced.
The early versions of the central gateway module (which allows different systems to communicate with each other) have software problems.
Irregular and premature tire wear can be caused by the front thrust link bushings cracking and causing excessive movement in the suspension. The thrust link bushings are fluid-filled (to help reduce vibration), so if they crack, they will leak oil.
The crankshaft position sensor may fail. Symptoms of this are: The engine will crank—but not start—especially when the engine is warm. The car may start again if it is left to cool off, but it may run roughly or have poor performance. Communicating these specific symptoms to your technician can save diagnostic time.
An engine oil leak may develop from the oil level sensor. Replacement of the leaking sensor will commonly correct this concern.
The rubber bond in the harmonic balancer can decay, which causes the balancer to move and work its way toward the timing cover. If the balancer comes into contact with the timing cover while the engine is running, it will fracture and damage the cover and potentially other surrounding parts. The harmonic balancer should be inspected at every service.
An engine Oil leak may develop from the PCV vent housing on the valve cover and/or the inspection plate on the front of the engine.
The electrical connector at the automatic transmission may leak fluid into the wiring harness. If not repaired, the oil will migrate through the wiring harness and damage the transmission control module. At that point, a new harness and control module may be necessary to correct this problem.
The ESP and BAS warning lights may illuminate due to a failed brake light switch. Replacement of the failed switch should correct this concern.
Due to the size and material used on the brakes of these vehicles, the brakes may start to squeak around the 50 percent wear point. The brake rotor surfaces become uneven, causing a lip to form at the outer edge of the rotor. Because of this, the rotors are usually replaced when the pads are worn (pad life varies depending on driving style and terrain).
High mileage or older vehicles commonly develop leaks from the differential seals and/or cover. Our technicians recommend a complete reseal of the differential unit whenever these leaks are repaired.
A vibration felt through the center floor of the vehicle can be caused by driveshaft flex discs, which crack and shred, causing excessive driveshaft movement. Not repairing these can cause damage to the driveshaft center support bearing, or, in the worst case scenario, damage to the transmission or differential.

by Sally Satel, M.D., HS '88; Basic Books (New York), 2000.
Satel shows how political correctness has infected the world of medicine and public health—with results that may actually threaten everybody's well-being. She begins by describing the presumption of some health professionals that because the sickest people in society are also disproportionately the poorest, the practice of medicine must address matters of social justice. She feels this has led to the diversion of resources away from what the medical profession does best—the treatment and prevention of injury and disease.

text: DIY, Family, Frugal, Gifts, Kids Crafts, My Work, Printables, The M Challenge How to Make a Homeless Care Package (Free Printable Supplies List) Note: From November 2012, this is one of the articles I'm most proud of on Mom Advice, and I'm SO happy that it's also one of the most pinned, making me proud of YOU. I'm republishing it for our November Focus on Giving M Challenge with the hopes it will see a whole new group of people who will be inspired to give! One thing that you may not know about our family is that we are really passionate about caring for the homeless. Creating a homeless care package can be one fantastic way that your entire family can be involved in caring for the homeless. Today we want to provide a checklist of supplies for the homeless, a local resources sheet you can print out (if you are in our area), and some tips for involving the whole family in this project. This month Walmart let me choose a project that I was passionate about for the holidays and showcase how families could recreate it in their own homes. As I always disclose, I am compensated for my writing, BUT instead of accepting the compensation, we invested what I would have earned along with the gift card budget Walmart gave me to give back to the homeless in our community. These homeless care packages can be prepared for your local homeless shelters or kept tucked away in the trunk of your car for those you may see on the street looking for your help. I love feeling armed in these situations and these kits are a simple way to show how much you care. I wouldn't be truthful if I didn't tell you that my husband inspires me every day with his giving heart. Last winter, he was coming home late from work because he would see people in need and run to stores to get them supplies and gift cards. That is his heart. That is why I love him. If there is one thing I firmly believe in, it is that giving should be a family affair. We have to lead our children by our example. I want my children to remember that what made our family special is that we always gave with our whole hearts. My kids assisted in every aspect of this project. My son came with me and did the number crunching on a good old-fashioned calculator, my daughter helped sort and organize all of the items we bought, and both kids helped fill the bags with all of the necessary items. Here Are My 3 Essential Elements to a Great Homeless Care Package Feed Their Needs- One of the greatest gifts you can give to someone who is homeless is personal hygiene items and food to nourish their bodies. Begin by picking up items that will satisfy this area in their life first. Simple items like shampoo, a razor, deodorant, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a comb, a bar of soap, and tissues are great items to keep on hand. Food like granola bars, crackers with peanut butter, trail mixes, dried fruits, and a bottle of water are also great items to tuck into your bags. If you have the funds, small denominator gift cards (we did $5 Walmart gift cards) can also be great to give so that they can pick up a meal or item(s) they might need. Provide Warmth- We live in Indiana and the winters here are brutal. I can't imagine how cold it would be to stand on the streets without the proper items I need for warmth. Add items like thermal boot socks, gloves, scarves, and hats to your gift bags. Items like these may seem out of your financial reach, but I found all of these at the dollar store and the sets of gloves were a mere $.50 each. Feed Their Souls- I am sure it goes without saying, but feeding someone's soul is just as important as feeding their needs. You can feed their souls in a variety of ways depending on your families beliefs and resources. We created a local resources list (available for local residents to download) that they can tap into for further resources in our town. A note that lets them know that they are on your prayer list, a note of encouragement by your children, or a scripture that you find comforting can also be excellent additions. God has been so good to us, but 10 years ago we were in a very different place than where we are now. My husband was unemployed for almost an entire year, our financial situation was a house of cards, and my heart was in a bad place. Although I don't like to admit it, I wondered what my purpose on this earth even was. I never have forgotten that dark place and it is why we still try to be so careful with the resources we have been given and why I have such a tender place in my heart for those who are struggling. Being careful though doesn't mean that you can't be a giver. There are fantastic ways to give, both big and small, around the holidays. Be sure to check our list of ten painless ways to give back to charities to help you get started. I call these smaller ways to give the, "scraps of life giving."

Author Dan Leger says the Mike Duffy story is a compelling one because it echoes the age-old tale of someone who flew too close to the son.
©Heather Taweel
P.E.I. Senator Mike Duffy's rise and fall, from ambitious local reporter to broadcast celebrity; from senator to political pariah, is now chronicled in a new book.
"Duffy: Stardom to Senate to Scandal" by retired newspaper editor and former Parliament Hill reporter Dan Leger was released earlier this month from Nimbus Publishing.
It tells the story of Duffy's life from the time he was born in Charlottetown in the 1940s to the day he was unceremoniously suspended from the Red Chamber last fall amid a national scandal surrounding his housing expenses.
Leger says Duffy's story is compelling because it is echoes the age-old tale of the man who flew too close to the sun.
"I think Duffy fell victim to the celebrity trap of believing in his own baloney," Leger said in an interview with The Guardian. He was in the city for a recent book launching.
"I think he actually started to believe this legend that he had created around himself as Parliament Hill's man in-the-know and the ultimate insider… It's hubris and nemesis and I think that's a lot of this story."
The book includes new details of Duffy's early life and his rise to media stardom at the CBC and later with CTV.
It follows his appointment to the Senate and his overnight transformation from impartial broadcaster into an intensely partisan Conservative senator — one who not only worked the fundraising circuit for the party but also assumed the role of attack dog against political rivals.
The book then weaves through the details of the scandal that erupted over Duffy's housing expense claims last year and the $90,000 payment he received from the prime minister's former chief of staff, Nigel Wright.
Leger interviewed over 30 people for the book, and even had a rare off-the-record conversation with Duffy himself.
On the back deck of his cottage in Cavendish, Duffy told Leger he felt he was being thrown under the bus by the PMO.
"He set out the arguments that he would make later in the Senate, that it was a set-up, that he was the fall guy, that he played within the rules as he understood them and that he became a political liability for Stephen Harper and that's why he was kicked to the roadside," Leger said, recalling his conversation with Duffy last August.
"I think he's devastated by what happened. I think he's very worried. And I also sensed a certain amount of defiance, which I think came out in the Senate."
Leger says writing the book was challenging, as many events were still unfolding as he was writing, and the story has yet to be resolved. He also says it was an eye-opening experience, learning how cutthroat, ambitious and resentful the world of politics can be for operatives on the inside.
But since Duffy was never truly member of the insiders' club, when the stakes were raised with the fate of a government was potentially on the line, he became a liability.
"He didn't have the connections to sustain him when he had outlived his usefulness. His celebrity did him no good — he was just a bigger target," Leger writes in his book.
"After 40-plus years as the self-described insider, Mike Duffy has come full circle: on the outside looking in, and much the worse for wear."

Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy (MMD)
What is myotonic muscular dystrophy (MMD)?
Myotonic muscular dystrophy (MMD) is a form of muscular dystrophy that affects muscles and many other organs in the body.
The word myotonic is the adjective for the wordmyotonia, an inability to relax muscles at will. The term muscular dystrophy means progressive muscle degeneration, with weakness and shrinkage of the muscle tissue.
Myotonic muscular dystrophy often is abbreviated as "DM" in reference to its Greek name,dystrophia myotonica. Other names for this disorder include simply myotonic dystrophy and, occasionally, Steinert disease, after the German doctor who originally described the disorder in 1909.
(MDA, which covers more than 40 forms of neuromuscular disease, uses the abbreviation "MMD" because "DM" refers to another disease in its program, dermatomyositis.)
What causes MMD?
MMD is divided into two types.
Type 1 MMD (MMD1) occurs when a gene on chromosome 19 called DMPK contains an abnormally expanded section.
Type 2 MMD (MMD2) is caused by an abnormally expanded section in a gene on chromosome 3 called ZNF9. MMD2 was originally called PROMM, for proximal myotonic myopathy, a term that has remained in use but is somewhat less common than the term MMD2.
The expanded sections of DNA in these two genes appear to have many complex effects on various cellular processes.
What are the symptoms of MMD?
MMD causes weakness of the voluntary muscles, although the degree of weakness and the muscles most affected vary greatly according to the type of MMD and the age of the person with the disorder.
Myotonia, the inability to relax muscles at will, is another feature of MMD. For example, it may be difficult for someone with MMD to let go of someone's hand after shaking it.
As the disease progresses, the heart can develop an abnormal rhythm and the heart muscle can weaken. The muscles used for breathing can weaken, causing inadequate breathing, particularly during sleep.
In addition, in type 1 MMD (see Types of MMD), the involuntary muscles, such as those of the gastrointestinal tract, can be affected. Difficulty swallowing, constipation and gallstones can occur. In females, the muscles of the uterus can behave abnormally, leading to complications in pregnancy and labor.
The development of cataracts (opaque spots in the lenses of the eyes) relatively early in life is another characteristic of MMD, in both type 1 and type 2.
Overall intelligence is usually normal in people with MMD, but learning disabilities and an apathetic demeanor are common in the type 1 form. In congenital MMD1, which affects children from the time of birth, there can be serious impairment of cognitive functioning. These children also may have problems with speech, hearing and vision.
Generally, the earlier MMD1 begins, the more profound the symptoms tend to be. For more, see Signs and Symptoms.
In general, MMD2 has a better overall prognosis than MMD1. The symptoms are often relatively mild and progress slowly. MMD2 rarely occurs during childhood, and there is no known congenital-onset form.
What is the progression of MMD?
The progression of MMD varies greatly among individuals, but in general, symptoms progress slowly.
The most common type of MMD1 — the "adult-onset" form — begins in adolescence or young adulthood, often with weakness in the muscles of the face, neck, fingers and ankles. The weakness is slowly progressive for these and eventually other muscles.
When MMD1 begins earlier in life than adolescence — the congenital-onset and juvenile-onset forms of the disease — it may be quite different in progression from the adult-onset type. Children with congenital-onset MMD1, once they survive the crucial neonatal period of respiratory muscle weakness with the help of assisted ventilation, usually show improvements in motor and breathing functions over the first year or so. They may have cognitive impairment, delayed speech, difficulty eating and drinking and various other developmental delays. Most will learn to walk. As adolescence approaches, children begin to show symptoms of the adult-onset form of MMD1 and follow its usual progression.
The childhood-onset form of MMD1 — beginning after infancy but before adolescence — is more often characterized by cognitive and behavioral abnormalities than by physical disabilities. Eventually, muscle symptoms develop, to varying degrees.
MMD2 is, in general, a milder disease than type 1. It does not appear to have a congenital-onset form and rarely begins in childhood.
In contrast to type 1 MMD, the muscles affected first in MMD2 are the proximal muscles — those close to the center of the body — particularly those around the hips. However, some finger weakness may be seen early as well. The disorder progresses slowly, but mobility may be impaired early because of weakness of the large, weight-bearing muscles.
MMD2 is quite rare, except in Germany and in people of German descent. Not as much is known about MMD2 as about MMD1.
What is the status of research on MMD?
Identification of the genetic mutations underlying MMD 1 and MMD2, and understanding at least in part how the mutations cause disease, has opened up avenues for therapy development in MMD.
Most of the strategies currently in development aim to block the harmful effects of the expanded DNA in the DMPK gene (type 1) or the ZNF9 gene (type 2). As of 2012, studies in mice are encouraging, and human trials are on the near horizon. For more, see Research and In Focus: Myotonic Muscular Dystrophy, particularly MMD Research: Seeking to Free Proteins from a 'Toxic Web'.

Was thinking about adding a translate widget to my website, but wondered if it's practical and if there's a free download out there?
Do you mean to translate words and snippets or to translate your whole page?
Honestly I am not sure...is it possible to translate whole page?
If you have a Google account, it sure is https://translate.google.com/manager/website/
It does not work....have tried on various pages and it just freezes my aero....nada. I post the meta before </head> and the div/script code where I want it and nothing.... I tried restarting and the pages will open but there's nothing at all there.
Never mind I found the problem. ME! Didn't think about having to upload it to make it work. Oh well, never said I was smart. Thank you Pullo very much!
Hi there,
You beat me to it.I just signed up for the service and made a test page which worked as expected.
Anyway, it's working now - all's well.
Never said I was smart....
Google TranslateBut I think free translation software are not good
You could use Google translet widget (which is ugly) or you could work with the Google Translate API which is great! You just have to signup at apps.google.com in order to do that.
bing translator is the best for your translation
As this thread is almost a year old, I imagine Barnum has long since found a solution.
Thread closed.

Post subject: Eagles
In case anyone may be interested, there is an eagle's aerie about a mile south of the I35 split on the east side of 35W right near where Rice Creek crosses. I have been watching this nest for the last 3 years as I have been driving by and nesting season is here again for these beautiful creatures. Yesterday I saw the pair mating near the nest and I'm sure eggs will be laid shortly. Last year 2 fledged and the year before, they were around, but did not use that particular aerie.
About the only way to observe is while driving by as there is no place to stop.
Xcel Energy has a great bird cam site
in case anyone wants to check it out. I set Xcel as my home browser page this time every year. Excellent bird cam site.

Thanks for the info! I'll have to check it out next time I drive by. Last week I saw a bald eagle flying over the I-35W Minnesota River bridge. It's great to see them more and more each year.

I have lived on Bald Eagle Lake for 26 years. About 10 years ago all the neighbors got excited because we saw an eagle on Thanksgiving Day. No one had seen an eagle near the lake for years. About four years ago we spoted one again. In the past three years we have seen eagles every year, and last winter there were three on the ice in March at the same time. When one flew through my back yard last year I almost fell off of my chair. I have seen a couple within the last month so there is probably a nest nearby. I'll keep you posted.

There is also an aerie on White Bear Lake on the western side of Manitou Island and another that most know about on Keller Lake on the south side of 36. I know of a couple others up north also. There are many eagles in Minnesota this year.

There's a couple of nests down by the Bloomington Ferry Bridge--way back in '02, there used to be a couple of caches down there--

--on the first one, there was a cache under the bridge, and I startled an eagle roosting there and had it fly right past my head--of course, he was already lost in the woods by the time I was able to get my camera out.

The pair along the freeway has been trying for years. They had a nest on the powerline behind Gander, then NW of the strawberry farm, just on the NW corner of Geoge Watch lake (sort of across from the chairs in the tree), and out on the island in Rondeau lake.
I think one of the pair was new last year.

There's also a really nice Eagle nest on Chisago Lake (Chisago City). You have to head towards the South end towards "Slimmer's Slough". I spend a great deal of time each year on South Lindstrom Lake and Chisago Lake. I go check out the Eagles each year. There is a point with markings around it so you don't get too close. It's easy to see them though, and the nest. Have some great photos with a zoom lens. The only thing not so great about them is their soaring area! I fly small planes into Osceola, WI on a fairly regular basis. Generally, I'm beginning my descent over I-35 or so headed East. I'm always catious when descending over the Chisago Lakes area because of all the Eagles. Once, I was at about 4500 feet, and I counted 5 or 6 soaring beneath me at about 3500 feet! This is rather scarry. A sparrow or two through a Duchess prop is no big deal,,, but a Bald Eagle could be catastrophic!

The eagles I mentioned in an earlier post do have a nest on Bald Eagle Lake. For those of you who want to see eagles easily this is a great location and has the benefit of being near a couple of caches as well. Go to the corner of Ramsey County H2 and West Bald Eagle Boulevard (check out GGCWAQ while you are there) Go north along the lake. There are houses on your left as you go north. After the last house on the left look for tall trees with a large nest near the top of one tree. It is set back from the road about 300 yards with open field in front of them.You can park on the left side of the road. There is a lot of activity there now and my naturalist neighbor says she is sure there are eggs in the nest.

That's very neat! The Bald Eagle population has been on the rise for quite some time now. It's good to have more of them around.

Post subject: Eagle's nest near Highway 36 in Maplewood!
There is a huge bald eagle's nest in the middle of Maplewood, right on highway 36, of all places. A couple of weeks ago, I was driving east on 36, and about 1/4 mile before the exit to southbound Highway 61, I noticed a bald eagle fly over the highway and up into a tree. I was able to glance up for a moment and saw the nest. It is literally right on the side of the highway-- I couldn't believe it when I first saw it. I often see both the mom and dad eagle in the nest.
The nest overlooks Keller Lake, which has lots of panfish in it, so I'm sure the eagle family has a plentiful food source.
There are a couple of places that Ramsey County has designated as "nest viewing areas." The best place to view is at these coordinates:
45.00.747, 93.03.699
. Take highway 36 and exit into northbound highway 61, then to your left, watch for the sign that says "frontage road"; take that around until you reach the viewing area. Bring binoculars if you've got 'em, or a camera with a telephoto lens.
There is also a public fishing area about 60 ft. down the road from there.
What a spectacular success story for conservation efforts, particularly concerning the bald eagle.

That's really cool. The eagles I have been around in the past would bitch if you got within a quarter mile of their nest, even way out in the bush in Canada where the never see anyone.
The number that readily tolerate people around here is just staggering. The pair on White Bear pays no mind to boats at all that I can tell. The pair on 35W on the north end of Peltier lake has a snowmobile trail right under their nest damn near. The pair just north of South Center is right on the edge of a farm field.
We need to enjoy them as much as we can because with the toxin levels in the fish being high enough that we are told to limit consumption for people to a couple times a month, and none for pregnant women or children it doesn't look to last.

Yeah, I really couldn't believe that a pair of nesting eagles would choose a tree that is literally about 15 feet off a busy highway. It's a tall tree, and the topmost branches are mostly dead wood, so the nest is really easy to spot. Well worth a trip to the east metro.

Last weekend up in Grand Rapids, Silent Bob and I did
this cache
that was directly underneath an eagle's nest. From the description it sounds like the cache owner assumed this was an "old" nest but there was clearly an adult hunkering down in the nest when we were there. In my log, I suggested that the cache be moved back a few hundred feet at least, but so far the owner hasn't reacted in any way.
