Caddo Parish Woman Turns to GoFundMe to Get Snake Out of Car
Burn it down!
Burn it down!
Every Friday, we talk to Chris Romano from Vexcon with the 'What's Buggin' You' moment. This week's topic is snakes. Snakes are coming out of the woodwork all over the Shreveport/Bossier City area lately and Vexcon has been running wide open trying to keep up with the demand.
Some guy in Australia decided to go for a swim with an ice cold beer in his hand. The only issue? He chose to bring his FREAKING SNAKE!
This is probably not what you'd expect to find in a green bean casserole...and the question remains - where's the body??
Just yesterday we talked about a new survey that was released and named snakes the most feared animal on the planet. Just over one of every five people say they fear snakes absolutely the most...
Lord have mercy. I knew I was going to see one, possibly more, but I wasn't prepared for it last night. I have a deep, unrealistic fear of snakes. They give me the heebie jeebies!

I attend conferences all the time for work. I do public affairs for a large developer and began my career in politics, therefore I can talk to just about anyone. Celebs don't freak me out and I always like to find things I have in common with folks...just to have a real conversation, instead of forced fake stuff.
Well, I head out today for WPPI, the Wedding and Portrait Photographers International conference. I'm SO STOKED and excited to be going. I'm taking workshops on boudoir photography, night photography, and I'm going on a shoot out in the desert. I couldn't be more excited. I'm also excited to go to seminars and learn from the greats. This is seriously a trip to Vegas that I'm thrilled about...and I'm not even a gambler!
I can't wait to share and implement the things I learn. In the meantime, please head over to my photoblog to check out the maternity shoot I did for my best friend last week!

text: Ever since Dino and I moved in together, we've been eating together. We try to plan our meals every week and cook something new on Sunday evenings. I've noticed however, that I tend to eat much less since we've moved in with one another. Since Dino's such a healthy eater I've found that I'm mimicking his ways. He's a little bit like my portion control! It's not that my boyfriend doesn't eat, or splurge on delicious things, he just naturally likes eating and snacking on nutritious foods and likes how he feels after he eats healthy meals. Normally when I was living alone I'd eat dinner way too late (since I went to the gym directly after work and got home past 9pm) and then stay up even later watching TV and snacking on popcorn, pretzels, or ice cream. Now that I'm living with Dino, we eat dinner as soon as we're home and then work out a little bit afterwards. After the gym, I'm no longer grazing in front of the TV because I'm ready for bed. Although I haven't worked out since the day before I went on vacation, I still feel good right now, but I'm looking forward to picking up a new fitness hobby after the holidays—I think I'm going to try Bikram Yoga. There's a cool special at a studio near my office, $30 for 30 classes! Also, my triathlon training starts again in February, and I've recruited a few more Shape girls to do it with me too. More to come about that!

Learn about HCCC certified nursing assistant CNA, registering in a technical training program, and taking free tests online. Nursing is one of the fastest-growing job areas, and for good reason. As the population ages, medical care will continue to expand. If you study nursing, for example, there are a variety of concentrations that may appeal to you such as CNA jobs, clinical internships, or vocational rehabilitation. Check with the nursing department for an updated schedule of classes, registration deadlines, and a list of certified nursing assistant CNA requirements. Due to advances in health care, there is a growing skill-shortage of nursing assistants, and of qualified medical personnel in general. Please use the form above to request admissions info for HCCC.
The Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) designation is the first step in becoming a nurse. After Becoming a CNA, you will assist in caring for patients by monitoring vital statistics, bathing, feeding and maintaining personal hygiene. Most certified nursing assistant programs can be completed within a few months, allowing you to begin working. As the public ages, nursing care has become a major source of employment for new technical program graduates.
The next step in a nursing career is to become a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN). This is a one year long program, in which you'll work under an RN, and be assigned advanced care work. Practice requirements for LPNs vary from state to state, but basic duties include passing meds, wound care, and administering feeding tubes. It is common for 90% or more of the class to find nursing jobs within 6 months, and licensed practical nurses with several years of work experience can earn well over $40,000 a year.

People with addictions have often experienced such harsh chemical reactions to substances that they literally cannot quit cold-turkey. While some may try, the addiction is often too strong, and they typically fall back into the cycle. A rehab or detox center is often the best place to go to get help in quitting. The following are some reasons why cold-turkey probably won't work for you:
· Studies show that only 3-6% of people who quit cold-turkey are successful. The reason for this is that the other 94-97% experience mental, behavioral, and physical withdrawals that are too strong for the body to handle.
· Quitting cold-turkey often presents other problems that could be dangerous to your well-being. Depression and suicidal notions are often triggered, as are massive changes in the hormones of the body. These all play a factor in the probability that an addict will relapse.
· Choosing to quit and just doing it one day does not give you the resources you need. Individuals who quit cold-turkey often do not join support groups or speak to a therapist for help. They feel that they can do it on their own, and thus try to until they fail.
Because of these reasons, it is important that someone who wants to quit their addictive behavior gets the professional help that they need. Contacting a rehab center is the first step in getting proper, safe, and effective help.

1. The Community's Environmental Action Programme was launched at the 1972 Summit. It aimed at meeting qualitative needs and at avoiding distortions of competition. 2. Ten years later, at this year's Stuttgart Summit, the Environment was again a major preoccupation. The conclusions demanded urgent action, particularly on atmospheric pollution. 3. The First Programme laid down objectives and principles; and focussed in particular on pollution reduction - especially water pollution. Action has included the adoption of 70 legislative texts - which demonstrates a high degree of political commitment. 4. The Community's Third Environmental Action Programme marks a change of emphasis - the preventive approach; integration of environmental needs in other policies; and the wise management of resources. Economic and employment aspects will also be important. 5. For the future a more active phase of environmental policy seems likely. Action on air pollution will be a high priority; likewise the better management of waste and action to protect the Mediterranean will be important. 6. The aim must be to get environmental protection accepted as simply a necessary part of good management.

fate worse than death
Also found in: Acronyms.

fate worse than death
Fig. a terrible fate. (Usually an exaggeration.) Having to sit through one of his lectures is a fate worse than death.
a fate worse than death
If you describe something that could happen as a fate worse than death, you mean that it is extremely unpleasant. They were forced to share the same office space as me — a fate worse than death. Why is it considered a fate worse than death to stay at home and rear children? Note: This expression is often used humorously to show that you do not think that the thing is really very bad.

A woman named Jean Bunker is searching for the descendents of a man who owned this silver. He was from Fork Union, Virginia, which isn't too far from Charlottesville. Read on and maybe you can help track down the family!
as I was entering the parking garage for my office on 19th and L in NW
DC, I found a bin next to the trash can, clearly meant to be discarded.
In it was a bunch of very tarnished, and in some cases broken or
corroded, silver. However, I could see that some of the pieces could be
very nice. I took the bin home – it was a mess!! (The stink in my car from the mildew on a 90-min drive…oh my!)
My husband spent some time cleaning it up. In the process, he noticed
that there appeared to be a social security number engraved on the
bottom of the silver. Robert Bunker, you should know, would do NSA
proud. He's quite good at sleuthing.
He looked up the number.
According to the 1940 US Census, the silver once belonged to Howard L.
Lane, an African-American gentleman who was born July 1, 1926 and died
on July 31, 1993. He was born in Fork Union, Va. Howard siblings were
Joseph, Dorothy May, and Junius. They were raised by Tom and Eula Wells
in Fork Union, Va.
The image attached is of the silver, now
cleaned. It is not sterling, but silver plate. That said, it still holds
significant dollar value. More than that is the sentimental value of
the silver belonging to a person who lived through the Depression and
served in the armed forces in WWII. Given that he went to the trouble to
etch a personal identifier on the silver, we surmise that this
represented special personal treasure for him. We cannot help but wonder
about the circumstances of these items ending up in a trash bin in a
parking garage on 19th and L in DC.
The pieces are lovely and
they look fabulous on our dining room table right now. But we'd want to
see them restored if there are Lane family members who would treasure
these items. I'm sharing the information in the hopes that we can
reunite this silver with one of Howard's loved ones. (Totally should
have taken a "before" photo – you would never believe it was the same.)
Head to Facebook if you want to contact Jean.

Innovative and targeted treatments that resolve pest problems effectively.
Free professional pest inspection to correctly identify the type of pests and infestation.
Need help identifying termites? Termites are often mistaken for ants and it is usually too late to discover that they are actually termites when the damages to homes have already been made. One useful tip to identify termites versus ants is that the middle section of its waist is much thicker than those of ants; ants have very thin waists.
Mud tubes on wall.
Discarded wings of flying termites.
Papery feeling or hollow sounding wood.
There are some hot spots for termites in your home, you can learn to identify to check for termite infestation and their activities:
Regular routine home inspection by a licensed pest control technician can help to early detect presence of termites. Experienced technicians are able to detect hollow sounds in wood and the sound response of soldier termites "knocking" sound when tapped. Indication of an infestation is not easily detected by untrained eyes.

The UK's world-shocking vote to leave the European Union has brought with it plenty of danger for investors.But, as ever with periods of gargantuan change, there is opportunity too. Agrimoney has identified three areas – one each, in production, farm inputs and agricultural services – which could provide silver lining from the clouds which look like surrounding the UK economy for some years yet.
Choose your crops
The ideas largely assume weaker sterling, which looks a strong probability given the UK's economic and political convulsions. (That said, currency markets do have a deserved reputation for being hard to predict.) Farmers would be best to profit from this foreign exchange factor by growing the most-traded commodities which should – being more dependent on international markets for prices – see the most price uplift, in UK terms, from a puny pound .
This does not just mean exported crops, such as wheat, which the UK has shipped to buyers from Iceland to Japan in 2015-16. It applies too to imported crops – not all of which are of the exotic type, such as papayas and mangoes, which the UK cannot for climatological reasons grow itself. The UK imports many agricultural crops, such as cut flowers, largely because foreign suppliers are more competitive – a dynamic which could change, depending on how significantly sterling weakens.
And producers of items which the UK largely imports could receive a second boost if the food they produce becomes a hot potato in trade talks. For the UK to slap a hefty import tariff on, say, bought-in cherries – or indeed potatoes – would send domestic prices soaring.
Inputs for export
The bad news for farmers of a weak pound would be that imported inputs, such as seed, sprays and machinery, would become more expensive. But that provides an opportunity for manufacturers with factories within the UK itself, whose products would become that much more appealing, financially, for domestic farmers. Meanwhile , dealers in foreign-made equipment might focus more on spares, as the extra expense of buying new prompts farmers to stick for longer with the machinery they already have. Exports of the UK-made inputs may become easier too – assuming the politicians who led the UK towards Brexit achieve the multitude of free trade agreements they have been promising.
Farm to FOB
Which brings us to a third business area to exploit, in agricultural services – upgrading the UK food export supply chain, and the management of how agricultural produce gets from farm to port. Logistical monitoring has become a growth area anyway, with more consumer concern about what they eat. But getting a close handle on the supply chain will become only more crucial as agricultural regulations in post-Brexit UK and European Union diverge.Keeping the ket Eu import markets open to UK agricultural exports could require ever-closer scrutiny to ensure they are produced to standards which meet Brussels regulations. (Bad luck those which voted for Brexit in the hope of escaping EU red tape.)
Such supply chain control will became only more important if the UK – which has signalled far more openness to genetically modified crops than most of its European peers – were to approve a biotech crop for its growers. While GM wheat seed looks a little off, biotech rapeseed varieties are available. Creating supply networks guaranteed GM-free would be crucial for the UK maintaining access to the many import markets with strict curbs on the technology.
Proactive thinking
There will be many other opportunities too – volatile currency markets, for instance, could provide more agriculture hedging work for city financial services facing a exodus of most business.Greenhouse manufacturers could be in for buoyant times if UK farmers do indeed try their hand at growing more of the vegetables, flowers and fruits the country currently imports. Which is not to say the agriculture industry will necessarily be quids in from Brexit. As Agrimoney has pointed out, the UK looks likely over time to see a reduction in subsidies, bringing tougher times to many farmers. But for the entrepreneurial, and lucky, the tremors from the UK's seismic decision will expose some treasure troves.

In hindsight I think that in my review of Hammers Let Me In, I was perhaps too generous in my praise for that film. On hindsight whilst managing to correct some of the mistakes of the Swedish original (getting rid of that awful "cat attack" scene), it was perhaps too American a Hammer film and when re-watched comes across as a bit, well, bland. I didn't see either The Resident or Wake Wood after that but hearing reviews neither of them were what Hammer really needed to get themselves established as a major producer of horror movies again. I was disappointed to be truthful, I wanted old Hammer back, and I wanted great period horror movies. So along comes the Woman in Black, an adaption of a successful novel and play that was once disastrously adapted by the BBC into a film. So I was anxious to see how this would turn out, I was happy that it was a period horror (very familiar to Hammer of course) and I thought Daniel Radcliffe may be a sort of young Peter Cushing (Radcliffe did admit to being happy to follow in his footsteps). On the other hand, a Woman in black film had failed once and could it do so again?

All The Boys Love Mandy Lane (2006)
It's a shame really that All the Boys Love Mandy Lane has such a convoluted release history, meaning that it never received even a DVD release in the USA. Here in the UK however we're slightly luckier, the film being released straight to DVD and getting semi-regular showings on television. If Mandy Lane was a bad film then I couldn't care less that even today a lot of people still haven't seen it, the problem is though, it isn't a bad film it's actually pretty good. Sometimes slasher movies bore me, I find the routine of a scene Teenagers having sex/doing drugs for ten minutes and then a kill scene and then another scene of Teenagers having sex/doing drugs mind numbingly boring if it is not done well. Mandy Lane however is actually pretty inventive with an interesting use of music, camera work and a plot twist that actually surprised me.

Hello friends! I just wanted to stop in today for a quick post. These next few days will be filled with lots of family, lots of food, and in the words of my niece Charlotte, "are all these presents for me?!"
The biggest thing I've learned about traditions in the past few years is how much they can change. Once you're married, your traditions have to change, and I think Matt and I are still working on setting our own traditions. Alternating time with our two families during the holidays has kept us from setting any sort of tradition in stone, but none of that really matters--what matters to us is that we are able to spend the holidays with the people who mean the most to us. I'll be checking out for the next few days, but of course I will return next week! I hope you all have the most wonderful Christmas, and are also able to spend quality time with those you love.
All Love,

9 Essential Cooking Tips from Food Writer Laurie Colwin
Feed your loved ones — and stay sane while doing it – with these words of wisdom from Home Cooking.
Beloved food writer Laurie Colwin was known for her witty and honest stories of her adventures in the kitchen, both delicious and disastrous. She was also the voice of reason for harried home cooks, who wanted to put something satisfying on the table without too much stress.
We searched through her classic book Home Cooking and found the nine most helpful tips for feeding your loved ones — and staying sane while doing it.
1. Small budget? Don't sweat it.
"I do not believe that you have to spend a lot of money to eat well: it is hard to beat a plain old baked potato."
2. Never pay full price for fancy supplies.
"As to baking, which requires a great deal of specific equipment, my motto is: never buy anything except at a tag sale. "
3. When in doubt, serve potato salad.
"There is no such thing as really bad potato salad."
4. Creamy sauce makes vegetables easier to swallow.
"A person who dunks an asparagus spear into a puddle of homemade mayonnaise will end up eating the asparagus unless you have on your hands the kind of hard case who will lick the sauce off and then stick the asparagus back in for more."
5. Establish a favorite family dish.
"When the chips are down, the spirit is exhausted and the body hungry, the same old thing is a great consolation."
6. The key to healthy eating is listening to your body.
"I have always believed that if you listen to your food cravings (I do not mean your constant desire for chocolate brownies) they will tell you what you need. If you long for bananas, it may be potassium you need."
7. For easy weeknight suppers, nothing beats soup.
"There must be more recipes for soup than any other thing. It is a true convenience food and has been since Esau sold his birthright for a plate of lentil soup. Vegetables simmered in plain water with herbs and a little butter make a fine soup and so do beans and meat, which must be simmered for hours. Even these soups are easy: you put them on the stove and leave them alone."
8. Chicken salad can be the most versatile dish in your repertoire.
"Chicken salad has a certain glamour about it. Like the little black dress, it is chic and adaptable and can be taken anywhere. You can dress it down and feed it to a child, or dress it up and serve it at a dinner party. You can accessorize it in an interesting way and astonish your friends at lunch."
9. When all else fails, order delivery.
(After a catastrophic fish bake) "As appears to be traditional with me, a large pizza was the real end of this grisly experience."

It seems that I have always chosen jobs that put me in a 'boys club' of sorts. Selling cars, and tech having been the most notable of them. There have always been numerous, swept under the rug comments about my place in an industries like these, which have only prompted me to work harder, feeling as though I have to prove myself because I'm a woman.
Having worked, also, in female dominated workplaces like retail and administration, there are still things that come up as obligatory just because you're a woman. Those seem to have been more habit-forming than challenging in my own opinion. When I worked in retail it was all about keeping up – hair, nails, clothes. When I worked in administration it was all about getting people coffee and dressing professionally – god forbid I express my personality a little bit.
This to say, I have worked on both sides of the spectrum: boys AND girls clubs. My propensity for male-dominated industries came hard and fast when I decided I wanted to sell cars. Shortly before those stints as a salesperson, I remember having a conversation with my father. I was broke. Living in my own apartment at the age of 18, and simply not able to make ends meet (mostly because of my choice to move into an apartment alone at the age of 18, granted). My father has always been well-to-do, so I figured explaining my situation and asking for help would be met with open arms.
It wasn't. I was told that I would always have to work harder to prove myself because I was a woman, and that this situation I was in was no exception – he would not help me. It was probably the reason I turned to credit cards, in retrospect. I decided, that I would stop asking for help at that moment, and though it may not have been the right way to deliver a message like this to an 18 year-old – I have not asked for help since.
When I was selling cars, I found myself on the other end of another comment like that. I was working at a Pontiac-Buick-GMC dealership, and it was my "up" (meaning the next customer was mine). A young(ish) woman walked in, and I kindly asked if I could help her with something. I was clearly a salesperson, as I walked up to her and wasn't sitting at reception. She proceeded to look me up and down and say "Is there a man working? I'm looking for a truck and only a man can help me".
I was absolutely appalled at this statement. Afterall, this was another woman saying this to me. Sometimes, as women, we expect to hear this shit from men – it just comes with the territory. With that, I walked away. I didn't say anything, despite my screaming inclination to rip this woman apart. I sat at my desk and bewilderingly stared at my computer screen, wondering what just happened. Eventually, she wandered over to my desk and apologized, but all I could do was give her an insincere smile and aimlessly crush the keys on my keyboard.
Now, working in 'Digital', I am constantly surrounded by men. Mind you, I work for an organization that pays female employees equal (if not slightly more) to their male counterparts, and has more women in management roles than most agencies I've seen in this city. Sometimes, though, I wonder why there are so many fewer women than men when I look around my office. The truth is that women are scared to get into technology, or they simply do not think that they have a place here. It was the same feeling that I had looking around a car dealership with over 20 salespeople, and only two of those salespeople were women.
In both of these instances, you can't blame the organizations, you have to realize that there are just so few women applying for these positions. And in my current job, I don't receive any 'sympathy' for being a woman, I am treated the exact same – which is exactly what I want.
I am constantly in amazement at how many articles I see about 'leaning in' or teaching women how to negotiate better salaries. I used to agree with this movement of educating and spreading awareness – and part of me still agrees with some of it. But at a point, I find it to be extremely frustrating. Granted, there are women that are helped by this kind of literature, and that's great. But it needs to be about more than that.
It needs to be about teaching girls and women to fight for equality, so that we don't have to read and write these articles anymore. Feminism, after all, is all about the equality of the sexes, not man hating. Instead of building yourself up to negotiate a better salary, women should have a place at the table – not just because they are women, but because they have earned it, just like the man sitting across from them.
When men and women are completely equal, we will not have to be taught how to negotiate, it will be a skill we acquire throughout the course of our lives – and we won't have to big ourselves up emotionally to be able to do it. Men, oftentimes, walk into a room when they have received a job offer and evaluate if that's what they deserve – often times leading into salary negotiations before the job even starts. Women, it seems, all too often, just take what they are offered because they see the job offer as a determination of their value.
Why do you as a woman have to work harder for something? Why do we feel that we're always trying to prove something – to be given the exact same benefits or compensation as a man. If I work harder than a man does and achieve better results, I expect to be given more – NOT the same. The Lean In movement has been progressive for career women, don't get me wrong, but the fact that we are still in a place where women don't feel comfortable or confident in what they bring to the table is straight up wrong.
I can't wait to be in a time where my daughter (should I have one) will not have to worry about comments like the ones that have been made to me. For them to be able to choose to work in tech instead of administration or childcare because that's what they want. Every day, I work hard. I do this because I strive to be a good employee, not because I have to prove myself because I'm a woman. For the longest time, I felt like that was what I was after – proving my value as a woman, not just an employee. I have earned my place, and I deserve it, which is the feeling I hope that most people feel, let alone my female friends and coworkers.

Myth v reality
You have to be pretty, young and thin
Hardly, though you do have to have something approximating fashion flair. Size and age are not big issues: the worst thing you can say about a fashion editor is that she's "not on it" any more. Ouch.
The editor as Cruella de Vil
In every representation of this world, the editor is a haughty bitch in a skirt suit — except in the case of Ugly Betty, in which he's a man. They are equally implausible. Editors (with the exception of Anna Wintour) are infinitely less scary and fashion forward than fashion editors. They never wear suits (men's-cut trousers or tailored skirts and cashmere). Fur is out. They always eat lunch (though fewer carbs these days). It is…

I like to explore the connection — or disconnection — between characters and the natural environment in my writing. When I'm not at work, you can find me tromping or riding over the hills near my home in South Carolina, and, when I can get away with it, on the other side of the Atlantic.
I'm also engaged with cultural preservation and seek to reflect that in my own work.
I offer several workshops that help participants connect deeply with the natural world and with their own cultural tradition — or with the culture of their fictional characters. These workshops balance detailed research with the use of freewriting and imagination to create dynamic writing. They can take place indoors or on trails, rivers and other wild places.

On iPad 2 Cases: Here's Why The Holes Keep Changing
Here's one of Apple's surprising little secrets: despite the company's official position that every upcoming product must be shrouded in mystery until it's officially unveiled on stage (or, rarely, in a press release), Apple's retail arm has a somewhat different agenda. Since new hardware releases inevitably lead to sales of new—and highly profitable—accessories to customers who already have their wallets open, Apple Stores don't just look the other way when third-party accessories are available on a new iPad's, iPhone's, or iPod's launch day; they actually encourage this. But how can a company design accessories for a product it hasn't seen, and reliably get products into Apple Stores in time for each new launch, particularly when the gap between unveiling and release is commonly only one to three days?
The answer: third-party developers almost always get early access to new iPod, iPhone, and iPad designs, a fact that Apple simultaneously wags its finger at and profits handsomely from. Specifics as to how this early access actually works are sort of fuzzy. Some companies think that Apple deliberately leaks early, accurate dimensional details to get the case wheels rolling ahead of a new product release, and some day-of-release accessories show tell-tale signs of direct Apple involvement. Others believe that the leaks come purely from people affiliated with manufacturing partners such as Foxconn who sneak peeks at Apple's production lines, measuring or selling parts—often metal or plastic shells, now sometimes pieces of glass—for profit. Under either scenario, Apple profits from selling millions of dollars worth of accessories, and having third-party options clearly helps: if Apple's Bumpers were the only available solution to the iPhone 4's antenna problems, the limited supplies and choices would have made for even worse press at a very bad time.
Yet there are also people who believe that Apple deliberately seeds inaccurate information, in the form of fake parts or bogus diagrams, in order to burn some early starters. Under this theory, Apple feeds different pieces of bad information to various partners and then looks to see which ones wind up in public. Cases made from inaccurate information may turn out to be a little too small, a little too big, or have holes in the wrong spots. A single mistake can cost manufacturers tens of thousands of dollars in discarded molds and finished but ill-fitting accessories. Occasionally, they'll wind up on sale, regardless: the clear shell above was obviously based on early iPad dimensional drawings suggesting that a second Dock Connector was in the offing. Ill-fitting early iPhone 3G cases also made their way into the marketplace before being quietly replaced by "revved" successors.
Right now, the second-generation iPad is nearing release, but in a twist, the pre-release case designs are showing substantial variations. All of the versions agree on a redesigned rear shell that will be even closer in shape to the lid of a MacBook (or the rear of an iPod touch) than the current iPad. They also suggest headphone port, Sleep/Wake Button, Dock Connector, Lock/Ringer Switch and volume control positions that are basically the same as one another, and very similar to the first iPad's.
But from there, there are differences. Most suggest that the speaker grilles of the first iPad will either grow to accommodate more powerful drivers, or that a panel will be added above the grilles for SD card insertion. Other versions are showing SD card-sized holes in other places, and most recently, some have popped up with something the size of a Mini DisplayPort video connector or mini-USB port near the iPad's top. Predictably, there have been reports that all of these features will wind up in the new iPad. But they probably won't. Just as was the case with the last iPad, which really seriously seemed to have twin Dock Connectors until it was unveiled, it's hard to imagine the sides of the iPad becoming Frankensteinish mishmashes of ports and slots. Lots of people would love the iPad to become a true mini-computer. Apple clearly wants to keep it elegant.
Though it seems obvious to us that all three of the leak scenarios above are true at various points in time—that Apple has seeded accurate pre-release information to certain developers, that it has had factory leaks, and that it also sometimes puts out bad information to burn early starters—the number of supposed iPad 2 case variations suggests either multiple and substantially different iPads are about to be released, or that some fake shells are being circulated. The upshot of all this: don't believe everything you see in these pre-release case images. Design is still king at Apple—form over function, some would say—and anything that looks too kludgy to be an Apple product probably is. Probably. We'll see soon enough what has made the cut this year.

after our arts and crafts disaster on monday, i bought him an aquadoodle and molding sand for his birthday
Okay, Seriously. He knows when I start typing. It's like a sixth sense. He's been in there, almost asleep, for twenty-five minutes. The second I typed 'pickiness,' I heard pitter-patter and the door handle. Or was it the door handle and then pitter-patter? Yes, the second one, as carpeted bedrooms and toddler feet do not produce a pitter-pattery effect.
ANYway, ahem, in no particular order, the Punkin's oddities:
1. Must wear both shoes and socks or be barefoot. Socks alone are impermissable and subject to wild meltdowns.
2. He must be naked when he potties--shoes, socks, shirt, and pants. Except, of course, at school or when Oma takes him at her house.
3. Lunch meat and other fillings that others might slide between two slices of perfectly good whole grain bread must instead be placed inside a hamburger bun. Again, school wins in this case, because all of their sandwiches come on buns.
4. "DA FIGHDER!" A love for all things long and skinny. Forks, spoons, pegs hooked together, snap beads linked together, wrapping paper tubes, shovels, straws. You get the idea.
5. He will eat fish sticks but not chicken nuggets. WHAT CHILD WON'T EAT CHICKEN NUGGETS???? My parents would claim that it's a cruel irony--punishment for years of going out to nice restaurants and ordering the chicken strips basket.
6. He loves being upside down. I must say that while I understand that this is new territory for many observers, and while it admittedly looks a but strange, and while I always want to be willing to answer questions in an effort to educate others, I do not need to see strangers' gaping stares in Cracker Barrel or hear them say, "Is that good for him? He's upside-down." No sh*t, Sherlock. I thought he was sitting in his booster seat, coloring nicely while he awaits his CHICKEN STRIPS BASKET. (Or "burder and Fen Fies.") You know, mostly I mind when people openly question my judgement; not the odd fact that Punkin enjoys such a strange sensation. Get the diff? I mean, I wouldn't want to hang my head upside-down for twenty minutes. Can you imagine? All the blood rushing and the pressure behind your eyeballs. No thank you. I don't get it, either. But please don't intimate that I am somehow hurting or endangering him. Obviously we are all happy; and most of us are being quiet and minding our own business, Ahem.
7. No blanket on top of him before he goes to sleep. After, yes. In fact, he may wake up and ask for one.
8. He wants me to rub my nose against his, but he can't bear to get his face that close to mine. He just giggles and turns his head. So cute.
Now it's not fair to pick on somebody unable to defend himself. So in a spirit of comradery, I give you Monna's quirks:
1. I Can Not STAND the sound that the windshield wipers make when they scrape across the frost on my windshield. *Shivers*
2. I wash dishes with a washcloth (a new one each day--I have about 15) or a scrubber with the water running. Meaning I do not, under any circumstance, fill the sink up with water and dunk the dishes. That is like a dish bath.
3. Which leads me to number three. I hate bathtubs. Actually I hate baths. I do not need to sit in a puddle of my own filth. Why would I want to do that? Now hot tubs are different; they have chemicals. And I may be convinced to take a bath at a hotel under the following conditions: a) the tub itself has been cleaned by me, b) I have been drinking wine and am feeling chill, and c) I have already taken a shower.
4. I love drinking soda through a straw--even if it's in a can. Fountain soda is best; it's the fizziest. Then cans, then bottles.
5. Ever since I was little, I have folded a small piece of the edge of a blanket or even an article of clothing and rubbed it against my thumb and forefinger. Punkin does this, too. And it's probably why he likes Legos--it's the same effect. I tried it. (My grandma did this as well. But not the Legos thing.)
6. Everything has its place. I have cubbies to sort toys, and each cubby has a picture on the front of what goes inside. The shelves even have pictures. The trucks are in one bin, and finally the mostly miscellaneous objects in another. I'd like to say that the primary motivation behind this labeling was to help Punkin learn to sort and clean up. And while that played a role, the main reason was because the respite workers kept putting things back in the wrong place.
7. Food should not touch, unless of course it is something along the lines of a casserole or salad. I just don't want any other part of my meal touching the casserole. My Aunt's friend even sent me an adult-sized round plate with dividers. Thanksgiving is kind of nerve-wracking.
8. I love the smell and flavor of oranges, but I cannot bring myself to eat one.
I really have no room to call him picky, do I? Darnit.
Now, it is funny when toddlers get mad. Especially mine. Because he smacks his arms around in attempt to hit me and instead whacks himself. And because he thinks the can pick up the heavy blanket from his mommy's bed and throw it at her. But he can't, so he chucks his blanket at her instead. Good problem solving, though. Hehehehe. This happened at about 6am after I told him to put on his pants. After he finally complied and calmed down, I asked him to bring me his shoes and socks. He brought me his snow boots and went back for socks. He grabbed the socks, and at my request grabbed his regular shoes. He handed me the boots. "No," I said, "Let's wear the white shoes. No boots." I could see a storm brewing inside. I had to make a decision, "Is it really worth it?" No. I put the boots on his feet, wrote a note to his teacher, and stuck the sneakers in his backpack. He looked really silly, though, because there isn't a flake of snow on the ground.
(Oh, and he is going to start transitioning to his new school next week. And I had a parent-teacher conference today. I talked his poor teacher's ear off. I'm just so proud!)

Oh how I love this post.
I know we emailed about our kids quirks, but you may have inspired me to make my own list. You're going to start thinking I'm a stalker.

Oh Dear, I can relate on so many levels to what you have just said about your Punkin. Captain has many of these same traits and quirks and some others as does Burbles. All kids are different, but the upside-down thing...yeah. The socks/shoes thing... yeah. I forget the others, but I had to read the post out loud to Matt so that he could know why I was laughing and being like.... YEAH!
As far as your oddities go... TOTALLY AGREE on the soda thing. This is especially true for Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, and Pepsi. Bottles are aweful and are a worst-case scenario. And I need to get me some tubs to put specific toys in. This drives me nuts, but I fear that it would be way more trouble at this point as Captain just doesn't get it yet. I asked for tubs for XMas, but noone got them. Can you recommend what type of organizer you use and take a photo so I can see what you have done? I'm sure the labels would get ripped off our the tubs before the toys would ever get played with at our house.
Captain's oddities: can't have a piece of fuzz, lint, garbage anywhere or he will let you know that it is "Garbage" and then put it there. Same goes with clothes on the floor. "Hamper." And, anytime I do the dishes or the laundry I have a "Helper". KIDS.

i'm sooo with you on the whole bathing in your own filth thing. I shower first and then take a relaxing soak. And I don't fill my sink up either...never saw the connection till now...hmmm.

I think you mean "intimate", not "intonate". "to hint", right? I LOVE to hear all these funny things about you guys. I don't really like my food touching either. I wonder if all brilliant people have some autism-spectrum attributes. Maybe genius goes along with mild autism? That would certainly prove my theory about Punkin being brilliant! LOVE YOU LOTS!

Bottles ARE a worst-case scenario!! One thing I love about New York is that when you buy a can of soda, no matter who from, they always give you a straw. I think this probably has more to do with germs on the can than care for my soda experience, but hey, I'll take it!
My oddities: I can't stand the sound of a hairbrush or of fingernails scraping on a seat-belt. Chalkboard, yuck but I can deal; seat-belt--SHUDDER!!
I really hate it when someone washes the dishes and leaves the sponge in the bottom of the sink. Then it fills up with cold, dirty water and the next person who touches it might as well go take a shower. Wring it out and leave it above the sink. This is a source of conflict in my household, haha.
And, I don't like to eat when people are standing up around me, or when they keep hopping up, or when they've cleared their place away and sit back down to watch me eat. If the people around me aren't eating too, I lose my appetite.
- January 10, 2008 at 7:53 AM
You already know about Robert's obsession with stick- like objects but what I thought interesting is he did the same thing with his "blankie" that you did. He still wants it when he is having a seizure and he has to find that one special corner to hold. (it's got a big hole in it now).
As for my quirk. There is one type of plastic that I REALLY can't STAND hearing anything rub against. Aunt Patty will vouch for that one but she has her own quirk....she doesn't like things around her neck. Things like scarves, turtlenecks, etc. and you should see her reaction when you put a feather boa on her. SOOOO funny.
Love you, Aunt Kim

oh and btw...my little brother who has absolutely nothing wrong with him won't eat PIZZA!! When he was a kid he would take a ham sandwich for pizza parties. He says it too much of a combination of flavors. Ummm...okay.

Great post! I love reading about both your oddities. My monkey shares almost ALL those oddities (socks and all!) with your punkin!
And, I, too, talk my monkey's teachers' ears off. I'm always the last to leave after school!

The winners of Oscar Award nominations, were present at Beverley Hilton for the Annual Academy Award Nominees Luncheon. An attracting number of 147 out of 190 Oscar nominees, were present at Annual Academy Award Nominees Luncheon.
All the winners of Annual Academy Award nominations gathered at the stage and collected their nomination certificates. There were many cameras and cell phones snapping in the room at Beverley Hilton. The nomination certificates were handed over by Tom Sherak, the president of Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
When the names of some nominees were read, such as Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, Mark Wahlberg, John Hawkes, Debra Granik, Christopher Nolan and Melissa Leo, loud whoops were heard. The gesture of greetings, for Annette Bening for Best Actress sounded louder than those of Natalie Portman.
Bruce Cohen and Don Mischer, the producers of 83rd Annual Academy Awards broadcast, told to the people present in the room at Beverley Hilton that, they chose the line "You're Invited" as the tag line of the show, which will be used to reach the audiences. They also gave an invitation, to the Public School 22 in Staten Island, for a chorus of 65 fifth graders to appear on the show. A 90-minute Oscar Pre-show documentary of the trip to Hollywood would be made and will be telecast on ABC.
The winning nominees, will get an opportunity to read the list of thanks backstage on "Thank You Cam" and the video demonstrated, what all the winners would be able to see on the monitor, a large black triangle which tales 45 seconds to fill, giving an idea for the winners, to how much time they have to talk. Before the end of 45 seconds, the letters "WRAP UP NOW" will flash in read and white colors.
The Oscar show will be telecast on February 27, 2011 from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood.

If you are wine lover, then wine cabinets furniture is something that will surely be in
your future.
Wine cabinets are very important for both the proper storage and display of
Essentially wine cabinets furniture is a combination piece that provides both storage
solutions for wine and quite often a surface for serving. On many designs there may also be room for storage
of glasses and other wine accessories.
Some pieces of this type of furniture also serve as a cooler or have systems for
regulating the humidity in a controlled environment. But most do not go to this extent. Furniture like
this is more often referred to as wine coolers or wine cellars.
Most designs of wine cabinets furniture are non-refrigerated and leave the bottles to
store in a decorative manner exposed to the temperatures of the room where the cabinet resides. It is for
this reason that this is a great piece of furniture for storage of wines that you will be consuming in the next few
Most of these cabinets have designs that will have the wine lying in a horizontal
position, which is the best way to store wine. You want wine to store in this manner because the cork stay
wet and that keeps air from entering the bottle and making the wine go bad.
If you have just a few bottles to store and display you may be better suited with smaller
wine storage solutions like the modern wine
rack. These are pieces that take up less room and are more affordable.
They generally sit on table or counter tops, are mounted on walls or are free standing.
But if you have lots of wine to store wine cabinets furniture is the way to go.
The benefit of a wine cabinet is that it helps top provide a safe place to store your
wine. If you have lots of wine you want them stored in a manner where the bottle do not touch each other and
can possibly break. A wine cabinet also can help top store wine glasses. Many have racks that allow for
the convenient storage of stemware wine glasses.
A good wine cabinet will provide a secure location for wines to age so they will not
spoil. In order for this to happen there should limited fluctuation in temperature, minimal exposure to
sunlight and no vibration. Many cabinets have doors that close to provide dark, protected areas for the
A piece of furniture like this can also add to the décor of the
If you select carefully you will be able to find something that will enhance your home as
well as provide storage and protection of your wine. They can come equipped to hold just a few bottles of
your favorite wines or up to several hundred at a time.
Most are fashioned out of various types of wood with drawers, shelves, racks for wine
glasses and doors or glass window.
Before buying a wine cabinet here are a few things to keep in mind:
1. First you should know where you will put the piece of furniture. Make sure
you have measured and know how much space you have available.
2. Consider how many bottles of wine you may need to store. Remember, this is
usually a storage choice for wine you will consume in less than a year.
3. Consider what type of design, wood material and finish will fit best with your
present home decor.
4. Finally you need to be sure to stay within your budget and not buy something that
is more than you can afford.

Charmant, rustikal A-Frame-Kabine auf bewaldeten 3-Morgen-Eigentum in Windham, NY. 4 Schlafzimmer, für 8 Personen (2 in voller Größe, 1 Zweibettzimmer, 1 Doppelstockbett), 2 Badezimmer, W / D, Holzofen (Brennholz), Sauna, Propan Grill, WiFi. Bettwäsche zur Verfügung gestellt. 3 Meilen von Windham Mountain, 2 Meilen von der Innenstadt von Restaurants und Bars. Nach einem Tag auf der Piste / Reiten Golfen, Wandern oder Radfahren vor dem Kamin entspannen oder in der Sauna arbeiten seine Magie lassen.
This house was a great place to get away. The area was quiet and secluded, but close enough to the main road that we were able to get supplies when we needed them. The yard was big enough for lawn games when the weather was nice. The house itself was a good size and easily fit 6 people in it without a problem. The house came with everything we needed so that we only needed to leave when we ran out of food. Overall, it was exactly was I was looking for when I booked the trip. Chuck was also really helpful and answered all of my questions in a timely manner. I had no issues booking the trip, during my stay, or after checking out.
Chuck's place in Windham, NY was a great little get away. The house is warm, super comfortable, and very spacious. We definitely want to come back in the winter!
I want to thank the owners, my friends and I had a great weekend at their Triangle house!! The house is very warm and cozy with great space in common area. I planned this trip with 7 friends; we all slept comfortable and spent great time in the common area of kitchen, dinning/living room areas with the warm fireplace. The owner was available when needed via email/text/phone with prompt responses and accommodating to any of our concerns. Also, very helpful with directions, tips, places around to rent ski/snowboard gear, supermarkets, and local restaurants.
Highly recommended :) Thank you again!
Great environment for a few days of skiing.
Really enjoyed our stay. We had a group of 4 and were up for Hunter Mountain Octoberfest. The place was as shown and described. Awesome yard, cozy living room and fireplace. Bedrooms were sufficient. Downstairs bar and game room was cool, even though we barely used it. Just minutes away from main street in Windham. Only constructive feedback would be that the kitchen has no stove, so you cannot bring and cook your own food, and some of the places in town, like the Italian pizza place in particular, closes early (like by 10 pm or earlier). Plan ahead if you are drinking and want to eat after 9 pm. This is the only reason for 4 stars over 5. Not even a big deal, I would've given 4.5 stars if I could. Would definitely stay again, any season, and would recommend to anyone. Owner was responsive and very easy to deal with. Overall great weekend, thank-you!!
The owner was very responsive the whole time before, during, and after the stay with directions to the house and recommendations for activities and hiking spots around the area.
Very pleased!

What to Expect from a Camino de Santiago
There are certainly a lot of people looking to acquire some insightful information on how to travel to the Camino de Santiago. After all, it is one of the most popular destinations for pilgrims who are looking to experience something spiritually profound.
The Camino de Santiago, often referred to as "The Way of Saint James", is a popular place, and is considered to be Spain's only major attraction, although that in itself is quite arguable. Nonetheless, there are many things to look forward to upon visiting this city, especially with the Romanesque architecture, the works of art that spans several centuries and the fact that it's the town that houses the remains of Saint James himself. This has become quite well known among the Christian community, simply because of the many fellow pilgrims to be met along the way, forging friendships as well as developing a higher sense of purpose in life.
Many people have certainly claimed to have learned important life lessons which they will take with them after their trips. Of course, since one would hope to get more information on the Camino itself, they would have to do a bit of research on the Internet. One of the most reliable sources of info is a Labyrintoom blog. There are many of them to be found all over the Web, and below are some important points to be come across when people check them out:
- A history of Camino de Santiago – It is certainly a place which has a huge historical and cultural significance, especially when it had a large part during Spain's Reconquista back in the Middle Ages. There are some highlighted stories as well regarding the establishment of this small city as a route for several pilgrims. According to these stories, Saint James traveled to Galicia to preach the word of God. It was during his death that his remains were believed to have been buried near the Atlantic Coast. A church was then built over the very location where his remains were found, which is how it came to be a pilgrimage destination.
- Routes to take – The Camino de Santiago is certainly traveled to by many pilgrims from all across of Europe. Because of this, they will have to take multiple routes on their way to Santiago. One of the most popular routes is the Camino Frances, which starts in Le Puy. This is considered as the most traveled path, and ranges 500 kilometers in distance. Pilgrims can expect to reach the town of Santiago, with the Pyrenees mountains as the starting to point, in a span of 6 to 8 weeks.
- Accommodations – While there are some travelers who get to sleep in forests and vineyards with their sleeping bags in tow, there are also some alberques to encounter. These are simply basically constructed hotels meant to house pilgrims on the route to Santiago. Many of these alberques are run by churches, while there are some private owners as well. They also differ in age, with some being brand new, while others have long been existent for several centuries.
These are just some of the things that potential pilgrims can look forward to when they check out a Camino deSantiago blog. There are certainly more important pieces of information to be found, and they will contribute to much better preparation before the journey begins.
