Personalized Books For Toddlers – Pros, Cons, Features And Recommendations
Once your little one starts to reach the toddler stage, they will be more inquisitive, curious and at the same time loves to wonder about a lot of things. This is also the best time to teach them basic educations.
These include number familiarization, color introduction and, most importantly alphabet awareness. Since your toddler's brain is like a sponge during this time, it will be easier for you to educate them and at the same time have fun during the process.
Possibly one of the best partners that can help you with your child's education is personalized books for toddlers. These books will be able to not only make your teaching fun but also make your child feel special. Of course, these books will also come in different variations depending on your child's gender, age and many more.
Personalized Story Books for Toddlers
The best thing that you can get when you purchase personalized storybooks for toddlers is that you get to make it as special and as unique as your child. Each child has their own "particular" yet amazing way of expressing themselves. It is our job as parents to harness these straits and use them to make our kids the best that they can be without robbing them of their individuality.
Also, you must take into consideration how the aesthetic of the book will coincide with your child's preference and taste. For example, my daughter loves books with butterflies, bright colors, and shapes in it. So I make it a point to remind myself of these things every time I look for new story books for her.
The only problem is that, when I go for a book hunt, not all of these ideas are found in just one book. That is why looking for the best book for my little one has always been a dilemma of mine. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack each time I buy a book. That is why I keep on praying to find at least a "good enough" book for my daughter.
Any parent would want the best for their kids, especially when it comes to their learning and education. But how can we do so if there are so few choices for us in the bookstores? Yes, I know that you are also in this particular predicament when you go book shopping for your kids as well.
But by using a personalized book specially made for your toddles, we can confidently do so. Instead of looking for hours for a book that you "think" that your kid will like, you now have the power to make your own version. One that you are "sure" that your kid will love and enjoy reading. A personalized book can give you the freedom to choose what you want and ho
w you want it. You can be able to adjust the story depending on your child's interests, personality, and nature.
Another great thing about a personalized book is that your kid and other members of the family can join in the story. You can make the book your special "family book" because it will allow interaction with other family members both in the story and out of it. This way, family bonding will be much more frequent and even more special.
Personalized Toddler Books
A good example of a personalized toddler book is the "Who Loves Me?" personalized book created by Jennifer Dewing and illustrated by Maria Carluccio. This book allows a total of six people that play a significant role in your child's life to say how much they love him/her.
The book is twenty pages long if you are able to complete the six people you would want to include in the story. The book is a great storytime companion for your child who is between the ages of one month to six years old.
The best thing that I like about this book is that it can be made for both boys and girls. The illustrations, color scheme, and overall artistry can be applicable to any gender. The book also has different versions of stories which are also based if your child has an older or younger sibling or even if you have twins.
Personalized Books for Boys
For those who have boys, you would know that they are a tad adventurous and have a wider and wider sense of imagination. Knowing this, you can now choose the best-personalized storybooks for boys. You can have a look at the book made by Maia Haag which centers on a story of your child being part of a pirate crew.
The personalized book entitled "My Very Own Pirate Tale" can indeed catch your little boy's interest especially if he loves the sea and loves to imagine himself being a pirate. The book will also spell out your little buccaneer's name and with each letter, a sea creature will accompany it. In addition, each letter will also describe why your little boy would fit perfectly as the captain's first mate.
But don't get me wrong, this book can also be a good addition to your little girl's collection especially if she wants to be in the captain's crew. The book is best introduced for kids from zero to eight years of age.
Personalized Books for Girls
On the other hand, girls are more attracted to princesses, fairy tales, flowers, and fairies. Personalized books for girls must include the so-called "sugar and spice and everything nice" recipe in it. Another work by Maia Haag has caught my attention, especially because I have a daughter of my own who loves colorful things.
The "My Very Own Fairy Tale" book will transport your little girl into a world of fairies, flowers and a magically beautiful garden. Similar to the abovementioned books, the story will spell out your daughter's name and at the same time, flower fairies will tell her the perfect traits she has making her the perfect fairy princess.
The book can be a keepsake four your little girl starting from her birth up until the age of eight. The book will also feature your baby girl's birthdate and your personal dedication at the end of the story. The length of the story is around thirty pages long depending on the length of your child's name.
Personalized Books for Toddlers with Pictures
Another important thing to take into consideration is that your child enjoys pictures. It helps them become more attached and drawn into the books that they read. What better way for them to become more excited and interested in the book than to have their very own version of personalized books for toddlers with pictures included in it.
If you plan to buy this type of personalized book then I suggest you take a look at a book entitled "1-2-3 Blast Off with Me." This personalized toddler book is wonderfully created by Jennifer Dewing and beautifully illustrated by Holli Conger.
Not only will you be able to enjoy reading to your child but at the same time, they will get to see their own faces on each page of the book. The book will also showcase your child's name throughout the story as they imagine themselves having an amazing adventure in outer space.
The book can be a special gift that you can give to your son or your daughter because of its illustrations which can be appreciated by both boys and girls. This book can be enjoyed by kids as early as in their newborn months up until their age of six.
My Personal Verdict
I decided to choose these particular personalized books for several reasons that I think can greatly help me teach my child and at the same time bond with them. First is the personalized story that will be made for them in relation to their names. It will not only catch their attention but at the same time, it will let them feel that their names have very special meanings.
Another factor that took my vote is that each and every one of these books is kid-proof. What I mean by that is that the book is hardbound and will be very durable which will hopefully prolong its shelf-life if properly cared for.
Finally, the dedication that can be placed at the last part of the book. Be it a simple note, the date of your child's birth, their pictures or even a well thought of letter for them. It is such a great way to show them how much they mean to you and how much you love them. Plus, it will be forever placed in their very own special book that is made just for them.

The management of Spanish mid-stream club, Villarreal has expressed satisfaction with the return of Samuel Chukwueze to training with the squad, following his extended break, due to his exertions with the Super Eagles at the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.
After getting two extra weeks off from his La Liga club, Chukwueze, who got a goal against South Africa and played three matches, en route to winning bronze with Nigeria at Egypt 2019, was back at The Yellow Submarine's training ground on Monday, much to Villarreal's delight.
Megasportsarena.com reports that the club took to social media to celebrate Chukwueze's return, while also noting that he had a fantastic debut appearance at Africa's soccer showpiece, where he contributed to the Eagles' third-place finish.
The post noted that 'Samu' began his pre-season drills with a special recovery process, as he has to get back into the scheme of things with the club, owing to his long absence and lagging behind his colleagues in their buld-up programme.
Villarreal gleefully declared: "He's here! @chukwueze_8 started his special #YellowsPreseason training program at the Training Ground after taking part in the Africa Cup of Nations with @NGSuperEagles. Great to have you back, Samu!"

I LOVE fried chicken. Nice, hot fried, just a little greasy, with the skin left on so each bite is just dripping, moist tender chicken. But like most of us grownups, don't eat fried chicken anymore. Being gluten free is one of the things that stops me, along with the knowledge (chemistry major here) of what happens to oil when heated to such high temps.
Now, lets add to the mix that I'm not a very good cook, nor do I really much care of cooking. It has become drudgery since I've had to cook 3 meals a day for the past 30 years! And that's probably why I'm usually looking at tools and gadgets to make it easier.
So back to fried chicken.
Years ago learned that gluten free pretzels (glutino) make a really good breadcrumbs substitute. But nothing I tried with oven fried chicken was satisfactory.
and then I bought an "air-fryer". Stupid name for what is really a small convection oven. Have wanted one for a long time and had come to the point that it would not happen until my existing oven died – and that might not be for 20 more years as it is only 14 years old.
Since I've had this "air-fryer" have made delicious carrot fries – nothing more than roasted carrots in stick form. done some sweet potato fries which were good, but the Hubs doesn't like sweet potatoes; am damn glad he likes the carrots. have done a couple of rounds of burgers, the last ones being pizza burgers. and have, of course, fried me some potatoes – non fried french fries. and they were good.
Have also done non-fried chicken. First time was with mayonnaise (actually vegennaise, and if you don't know the product, check it out!!) and my pretzels. This time it was the old fashioned way with egg, crushed pretzels, some parmesan cheese and pepper. And it was as tasty as it looks!!!. My biggest complaint was as it sat on the plate, the underside got soggy. As it cooled, moisture condensed within and the crust got yuchy!!
For those of you who have families of 4 or more, these "air-fryer" gadgets are somewhat limited. As you can see from the grill pan in the above picture, there is really only room on there for maybe one more piece of chicken. And this is a single breast cut in half. Great for the single person or couple, or if you are just interested in doing things like oil less veggie or potato roasting.
Had never heard of these things before a month or so ago. Someone on Facebook had mentioned buying one and once the research began, it was like that cartoon lightbulb went on over my head! Spent more than I really wanted to, and they come without accessories, so the grill pan, a rack, all extra. As I read reviews my purchase price also went higher and higher.
But if it last the 5 years that many seem to have had them for, it will be okay.

So the candidates have to make sure that they are registering themselves for each exam at least nine months prior to the month in which the exam is supposed to take place. Because, as already discussed once, this course can be undertaken in the minimum time period of eight months, not less than that.

So here's the deal, does having a pro card mean you're perfect? No, it does not. What a pro card means, is that on a given day, you nailed it. Your physique was on point, your posing was on point, and you were the best out of the lineup you competed with. That is a HUGE achievement. After all, when you earn your IFBB Pro League pro card, that comes after competing at the local and regional levels, getting nationally qualified, and then earning top honors at an NPC national level pro qualifier. For the few who can achieve that - be proud - be VERY PROUD!!
Now, let's go back in time to 2012, when Mike Pulcinella released his "Kai Greene: A Day in the Life," video. I'm sure you've seen it a MILLION times, but in case you haven't, I've included the part in question, where Kai attended posing clinics regularly. Kai Greene was then, and now, considered to be one of the best and most entertaining bodybuilding posers of all time. By 2012, he'd won the NY Pro, won the Arnold, and placed Top 3 at the Mr. Olympia, yet he continued to attend posing clinics. Why? Because he constantly wanted to sharpen his skills.
I've seen pro's at clinics I've covered standing around, either assessing the amateur lineups and/or looking out of place. I have also seen pro's, folks who've won big titles, humbling themselves, getting in those lineups, shoulder to shoulder with true novices at the NPC level, simply to get the constructive criticism of presenters.
Now, not all posing clinics are created equally. When you can pose in front of a Mr. Olympia judge, like Gary Udit, and when you can get posing tips from an IFBB Pro and National NPC Judge like Linda Andrew - now you're in a different world!! Even Kai wasn't being assessed by judges on this level, but yet he attended his posing classes, consistently.
The fact is, if you've been spent 16 weeks eating out of tupaware, logging every rep of your training down, and taking your supplements at specific times, like clockwork, then you owe it to yourself to present everything you've worked so hard for on stage. Be humble somewhere else, at some other time. On stage, show every last bit of that hard-earned muscle, broadcast your crispness, and put your lines on blast!! Nothing shows off symmetry and balance better, than flawless posing!!
I don't care how great your prep coach and/or posing coach is, you simply cannot cut corners and deny yourself of being critiqued by the best. What's 45 minutes on a Sunday afternoon in the grand scheme of things?
For amateurs, I have to tell you, it's on! Anyone doing the Ohio, had better come ready to battle. No one you come up against, will be there just for fun. The same goes for the Tricky Jackson and the Kentucky Muscle. It's much harder to get nationally qualified now, so everyone is coming ready to battle. Also, the judges want to reward the athletes with the best physiques, but if the athletes can't execute the mandatory poses, how pray tell, can the judges give them the best placings? How can you reward something you can't see?
With regards to Pro athletes, they have pretty darn high stakes, too. Many need to keep their sponsors happy; others will get bonuses for making Top 5, Top 3, and especially for winning! Pro's also want to make a name for themselves, they want to get invited to the Arnold Classic, and they especially want to qualify for the Olympia. Speaking of the Olympia, many pro's will go on points, if need be, but they would much rather qualify for the big dance by winning a contest. I'm sorry, but you're not winning an IFBB Pro League contest if you can't pose - ain't happening!
If Kai Greene went to posing clinics regularly to pose, with NY Pro and Arnold Classic titles under his belt, while being Top 3 at the previous year's Mr. Olympia, then I'd be hard pressed to name even a single pro, anywhere, who shouldn't get in front of judges like Gary and Linda and make sure there isn't anything, even the most minor little detail they couldn't pick up to make their awesome posing skills even more awesome!!
I hope to see everyone - amateurs and pro's - at the NPC Free Seminar on Sunday, September 8th at Powerstation Gym in Middletown, OH. If you'd like to RSVP, please visit the official Event Page.

DAVIS (CBS13) — A San Joaquin County K-9 who nearly died in 2014 after being stabbed by a suspect, was being saved yet again, this time by the veterinary team at UC Davis.
This past March, seven-year-old K-9 Haakon was taken to the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Hospital for a ruptured bladder.
Haakon and his handler, Deputy Joshua Stillman, share an unbreakable bond. So when Haakon started to get a little sluggish one night after work, Stillman knew something was wrong.
"We came up to UC Davis and found that he had a broken uterine tub, basically leaking urine into his body cavity and it was toxic," Stillman said.
READ: Police: Metal Objects Found In Trick-Or-Treaters' Candy
The German Shepherd was rushed into surgery where veterinarians removed a large portion of his bladder, performing a procedure known as a gastropexy. Veterinarians said surgery revealed that a portion of his bladder was dead.
"German Shepherds and some other large breed dogs are prone to developing a condition where their stomach fills with fluid and air and rotates on itself," said Dr. Ingrid Balsa with the UC Davis Veterinary Hospital. "So having a gastropexy can prevent that twisting of the stomach.
This wasn't Haakon's first brush with death. In 2014 he was stabbed while trying to apprehend a suspect on New Year's Eve.
"The suspect had a knife and he had cut (Haakon's) neck, and we pulled him out and took him to a vet hospital in Stockton and they saved him," Stillman said.

The lifesaving work of the UC Davis doctors was recognized at a special ceremony where the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office presented the vets with a plaque and a donation check.
Now that Haakon has fully recovered from his surgery, the unbreakable K-9 is back doing what he does best at work, catching bad guys and keeping the citizens of San Joaquin safe.
Stillman says Haakon is inching toward retirement. In the next couple of years, Stillman is hoping to have Haakon home with the whole Stillman family full time.
A gastropexy has nothing to do with a ruptured urinary bladder…. Gastropexy: suturing the stomach wall to the abdominal wall to prevent a (relapse of) GDV (gastric dilatation-volvulus). Due to the tortion the stomach's blood flow is cut off and a part of stomach might 'die'. Hence the need to sometimes remove a part of the stomach. So I suspect he had a GDV, and not a bladder rupture?
Also, 'uterine' regards the female reproductive tract, it would be ureter/ureteric rupture (ureter: 'connection tube' between kidney and bladder).

A child is not born knowing anything. It may learn that it feels comfortable in the way it is being, enjoying the connection to this source of warm liquid it is getting. It feeds. It sleeps. It is in some kind of a mess which is uncomfortable and so begins to whimper, louder and louder and then crying until one of those nice people take care of me.
Some time later the child figures out how to make words, and how to be understood. So the child may ask questions about everything and does ask. Possession of a hunger mind which is attempting to learn about everything now. This seems easier than waiting until I need to know what that is: Snake, dangerous poisonous, makes sick, causes pain, maybe too much pain….
That was little segue in to our discussion, "Questioning". It was just shown that we usually question everything when we are young. This is good, as it is a way to discover, with potential learn and yet it is not enough.
This Questioning to as a means of learning is not new. Socrates outlined such a processes called the "Socratic Method" and From Wikipeida we present:
"The Socratic method, also known as maieutics, method of elenchus, elenctic method, or Socratic debate, is a form of cooperative argumentative dialogue between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to draw out ideas and underlying presuppositions. It is a dialectical method, involving a discussion in which the defense of one point of view is questioned; one participant may lead another to contradict themselves in some way, thus weakening the defender's point. This method is named after the Classical Greek philosopher Socrates and is introduced by him in Plato's Theaetetus as midwifery (maieutics) because it is employed to bring out definitions implicit in the interlocutors' beliefs, or to help them further their understanding.
The Socratic method is a method of hypothesis elimination, in that better hypotheses are found by steadily identifying and eliminating those that lead to contradictions. The Socratic method searches for general, commonly held truths that shape beliefs and scrutinizes them to determine their consistency with other beliefs. The basic form is a series of questions formulated as tests of logic and fact intended to help a person or group discover their beliefs about some topic, exploring definitions or logoi (singular logos) and seeking to characterize general characteristics shared by various particular instances . . . . "
There are many documents written upon the Idea of asking better questions in order to learn. On the question of "Asking Questions to learn" Google returned 605,000,000 hits in 0.54 seconds of search time.
So asking questions is not enough. To quote a piece form the Wikipedia above: "asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to draw out ideas and underlying presuppositions." So asking questions should not be enough, especially when the result will effect you directly.
Strange, because if you do not questions, get answers, then evaluate based on all that you have learned, to repeat the process by asking more questions and so on; you will not Know nor gain knowledge which is a required component of wisdom. Is this boring? Maybe "Better" Questions are actually needed to gain better understanding.
In the line of questions that will shed light upon that which will absolutely effect you and your soul, we have:
First Question: "Should it be possible that any human could modify, erase, re-write or legislate around any law that a god says?"
Answer: No! . . . . No! Never.
Question: It is known that most religions do that modifying process in their doctrine and teachings . So Why is your answer NO!?
Answer: If a human could change the word of god, then the humans are more than that god.
Return Question: Would you then be able to Trust that god?
Response question: So what god can be trusted?
Answer: In fact there is only one GOD. The GOD of Abraham, GOD of Isaac, GOD of Jacob, as it appears in Exodus 3:6 Moreover He said: 'I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' And again Exodus 3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses: 'Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel: The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you; this is My name for ever, and this is My memorial unto all generations.
Question: Why does GOD use these three people?
Multi-layered answer:
They are our fore fathers, we should hear and know their stories.
Each of them, received communications from the Living GOD of Jacob.
Each of them, were blessed and ended up Trusting in Their GOD.
Each of them were promised the LAND.
Abram, before he was renamed Abraham, was promised the land, and as a sign of the promise, told of his descendants, enslavement, 400 years, punishment for that enslaving people/country, and how they would leave that place.
We became the witnesses of that TRUTH and Fulfillment.
In 3,975+ years promises which started with Abram have been kept. We are the Witnesses.
. . . .
This set of questions and so many possible other questions along these lines should be of grave importance to you.
Question: Why?
Answer: We are not talking about "how you want your eggs this morning? We are in fact talking about the most important things in your life and the Life of Your SOUL. That soul is of greater value to you and your future than possession of all the Earth would be.
Yes, there should be great many questions regarding that answer. For the time being, I ask you to just accept that answer as the TRUTH. This is not to say that you should not question it; you should; just not now. The point of that answer is that: For your own benefit, and future, you should be seeking the ALMIGHTY GOD of Israel.
From wherever you are in your search, life and the search for GOD, the First Question should be your starting point in finding the Only GOD, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, GOD of Abraham, GOD of Isaac, GOD of Jacob, . . . anything else has only one possible outcome.
That was a hard statement. Question: Is there an easy way to do this process?
Answer: "Deuteronomy 30:8 And thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of the LORD, and do all His commandments which I command thee this day." Or, "Exodus 19:5 Now therefore, if ye will hearken unto My voice indeed, and keep My covenant, then ye shall be Mine own treasure from among all peoples; for all the earth is Mine; 6 and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.'"
Lest you feel that this is only for the Children of Jacob:
"Deuteronomy 29:8 Observe therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may make all that ye do to prosper.
9 Ye are standing this day all of you before the LORD your God: your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,
10 your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger that is in the midst of thy camp, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of thy water;
11 that thou shouldest enter into the covenant of the LORD thy God–and into His oath–which the LORD thy God maketh with thee this day;
12 that He may establish thee this day unto Himself for a people, and that He may be unto thee a God, as He spoke unto thee, and as He swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
13 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath;
14 but with him that standeth here with us this day before the LORD our God, and also with him that is not here with us this day–"
Accepting the KING of Jacob as THE GOD ALMIGHTY, and keeping HIS Covenant, adds you to the HOUSE OF ISHRAEL. Accepting the KING , and accepting the Covenant then not keeping same, you are still in the HOUSE of Israel and bound by the same Laws, Teachings and Covenants, but are struggling with the ALMIGHTY. It is a no win situation to do that, so better to just do the Covenant and be ISHRAEL.(Ref: "Exodus 24:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the hearing of the people; and they said: 'All that the LORD hath spoken will we do, and obey.'") Not accepting any of this is not good for you, because know better and rejected the WORD and GOD ALMIGHTY.
So where to read about all of this: The Written TORAH, by the Hand of Moses as given by HASHEM. The perfect place to start. Five things you will learn there:
1) Who is THE CREATOR of the Heavens and the Earth?
2) What does HE want from You?
3) How am I to Treat those Near me?
4) How am I to Treat those Not Near me?
5) How I am responsible for what I do?
Do you have questions for me? About this or the Written Torah? Sign in and post your questions.
Is anyone listening? You still have breath and life, you can return and repair your deeds. You just need to Do It while you have time.
I can not save you, no one can., you must Return and do that which is Right.
I can show you the way, if you want to know.
IT is to our benefit to HEARKEN until the LIVING GOD OF ISHRAEL/ISRAEL, and to our pain and shame to do otherwise.
My prayer is that The LORD grant you eyes that see, ears that hear and an understanding heart, then you return unto HIM soon!(Isaiah 6: 9 And He said: 'Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.')
If you have questions, write me or submit a comment.

The Unworking Mom
It's hard to believe that I've been an "Unworking" Mom for (just over) a year. As I reflected on this past year I thought I would share the top 10 things I've learned on this journey.
10. We can survive on one income - we've learned this twice over. First, when I quit work, my husband took on a second job to help cover costs. Than, we REALLY moved to one income when he lost his job in December but was able to go full time at this second job for the time being. I've learned to cut my spending habits, price match, cut coupons, and, did I mention cut my spending ? ;-) (I'm still working on that - as a matter of fact, I'm working on a very detailed March budget to force myself not to spend anything that isn't planned . . .. we'll see how that goes!)
9. Our Consumers Energy Bill is higher - duh!! Last summer, in the midst of the heat wave we were SURE we were being over charged. I mean - how in the world could our bill have jumped so much in one year. I started comparing usage on bills from a year ago when both my husband and I went - DUH!!! I'm home all day with kids!!! Which means - more lights, more TV/stereo, more laundry, ect ect ect. We are slowly replacing appliances out of necessity (like the fridge that died - kinda had to replace it LOL) which is supposed to help our bill but, I must admit, I've yet to see it!
8. Muffin Tin Monday, Funky Food Friday, snack time and the special treats of M& M's and Chocolate Chips are better than business lunches any day! Why, you might ask? No one cares if my make-up is done, my hair is in a pony tail or, quite honestly, if I (we) have chocolate on our faces LOL Nothing is better than a smile from a two year old who has chocolate lips ;-)
7. Playing in the park, Walks in the sunshine and blowing bubbles in the yard are the best kind of business meetings - need I say more?
6. Plans seldom work out - even when they are written in the planner. Everything takes longer with kids and nothing goes as planned!! We were laughing recently as I showed my husband the 2-3 things I had planned in January/February where either I would get a day out or we would do something as a family and not one thing worked out for various reasons. I always say I'm going to stop planning but I never do :-)
5. Yes, I do "earn" money even though I don't work - Cutting the grocery bill "earns" us money because I spend less; Not driving somewhere every day "earns" us money because gas is less; Cooking meals at home "earns" us money because we aren't spending $20-30 a day eating out. My husband may bring the money home but I work to keep it in our pockets helping us in the long run.
4. My house is never clean - you would think that being home all day, I'd have a clean house - but wait, I'm home all day with two (actually three!) little boys . .. it is never clean. It is actually dirtier/messier because we are home to mess it up! My dishwasher is always full, the laundry is always going, and - if I'm lucky, the vacuum gets run twice a week. So don't look in the corners or do a white glove test when you come here - just smile and watch the kids have fun LOL
3. I never have enough time - I used to think I was busy, until I stayed home. Now - I'm REALLY busy. Sometimes I tell my husband on Wednesday that I am still on Monday because I'm that far behind. hahaha I make my list, check it twice, and than look at it on Friday and realize that life happened in between all of those things I did not get done.
2. I work harder now than I did before - I experienced both sides of the working/not working mom thing. When Josh was born, I went back to work. Everyone wonders how you work and have time for the family - I found it wasn't that hard. I dropped my child off, went to work. That meant, the house was clean all day; no dishes were used, no toys messed up, no clothes thrown on the floor. At work, I did my job and, often had time to work on things that I needed for home - grocery lists, menus, party planning, etc. When I got home, we only had an hour or so to play before the little guy was to tired to stay awake. Than, I would scrapbook, read, watch TV or anything else I felt like doing. I didn't cut coupons - we both worked; I didn't keep a budget - I didn't need to. Since the house was "clean" all week, we did our cleaning on Saturday morning and were done. Now that I'm home all day - there is a TON of work and not that many hours to do it! Between cleaning, planning meals and grocery lists, laundry, and keeping kids happy, most days, I'm exhausted by 8:00. Crazy, I know - but it is so true!
1. This is the best job in the world - I would not trade being a stay-at-home mom for anything. I get to see the smiles of new discovery and watch eyes open in wonder as they figure something out for the first time; I get to kiss the bumps and bruises and tickle until they giggle. I get to see new expressions, hear new words, and watch personalities devolop. I get to see them at their best (and sometimes their worst!) and watch as the learn something new each day. I'm blessed to be able to teach them, read to them, and play with them daily. Not to mention the sloppy kisses, the quick hugs, and the Iuveu's (I love you!) that come out at random times. Sure there are days when I hear others talk of pay raises, promotions, new jobs and going back to school - it makes me wonder what I'm accomplishing - is it really worth what they are doing? I traded business trips, lunches, meetings, promotions for this?? Than I see that chocolate covered face smiling up at me and I realize that I'm doing something far greater than any of that - I'm building lives; shaping minds; and nurturing hearts of two boys that will grow into fine young men. Than, I can say - "Job well done" and know that I had the best job in the world.
So, that is what I've learned in the past year. When I mentioned this to Darryl, his words were - "And to think, we are still making it" LOL All Ihave to say is that I love my crazy, good life with all three of my boys!! (Darryl is just as much of a kid as they are!!)

Canada loves Kreskin but that doesn't mean Winnipeggers won't try to stump the master mentalist and magician when he performs at the West End Cultural Centre on Dec. 13. The "cheque test" — Kreskin's most well-known feat and the finale of every show — involves the audience hiding his payment for the performance while he's escorted offstage. If Kreskin doesn't find his fee, he doesn't get paid.

I need to use the attachInterruptVector() to be able to capture a digital signal with a max. freq of 10 MHz with the superfast Teensy 4.0. The normally used (and easy to use) attachInterrupt has a too big delay between the signal change and the start of the interrupt routine.
After reading and searching in this forum, I realized why the attachInterrupt() is slower and that I need to use the attachInterruptVector(). I also once had to make that with an Arduino / ATmega32u4, but the Teensy 4.0 / IMXRT1060RM is at a completely different level...
I've found a post with a similar topic and tried to adapt it to my project (see last post): https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/57717...le-question-T4
That is my code, but sadly it doesn't work:
It compiles perfectly, but no interrupt occurs. Tested at 600 MHz/Fast settings. For sure I did something wrong...Code:void change() { //do something extremely fast GPIO9_ISR = 0x08; // clear the IRQ asm("dsb"); } void setup() { pinMode(2, INPUT); // connected to EMC_04 pinMode(5, INPUT); // connected to EMC_08 attachInterruptVector(IRQ_GPIO6789, &change); NVIC_ENABLE_IRQ(IRQ_GPIO6789); GPIO9_GDIR &= ~0x08; GPIO9_EDGE_SEL = 0x08; GPIO9_ISR = 0xffff; //attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(2), change, CHANGE); // works, but "slow" //attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(5), change, CHANGE); // works, but "slow" } void loop() { // do something else }
Can you please help me?

The Temple at Garni, Armenia
1 comment:
The poster child for rebuilding is probably Saint Mark's Campanile in Venice, which after taking on its final form in 1513 stood essentially unchanged for almost 400 years as a world famous landmark.
Then in 1902 it suffered catastrophic structural failure and utterly collapsed. But they had the plans of the original, so the very same day they decided they would rebuild it exactly as it had been, plus some new internal reinforcement. And so they did, and so a great number of people today actually have no clue that the famous landmark isn't actually 500 years old.
I've heard people compare historical legacy to flame - that if something's history is interrupted or broken, it is as if a candle has been snuffed out, and even if relit, it's not the same fire.
But that analogy is inherently flawed - even an uninterrupted flame is not a single "fire", but rather an ongoing process of combustion in which fresh fuel is constantly converted into fresh flame, which then disperses into the atmosphere and is lost, continually being replaced by further new exhaust. The "fire" of a candle flame during one second of time is an entirely separate collection of matter and energy than that of the same flame during a separate second of time.
So too is historical legacy not a single "thing" to remain unbroken, but a series of discrete moments in time, each with their own meaning, value, and importance. Saint Mark's Campanile, prior to 1513, took on a variety of different forms and constructions, and was destroyed and rebuilt several times, stretching all the way back to the ninth century. Yet just because it hadn't yet taken on the modern day form which would eventually become so well known, doesn't mean that the earlier history is any less pertinent or important.
History is built on the bones of what came before, and nothing ever persists frozen in time, unchanging for all eternity. Our ancestors lived among and atop ruins, and so do we - we simply fail to realize it much of the time. The crime is not in simply reshaping the ruins of the past to serve the interests of the present, but in doing so without proper knowledge or reverence.

Holiday in Scotland - Day 16 Shawbost and Stornoway Free Churches
In the morning we joined the Shawbost Free Church as invited. Our English service was in a very vcmfortable church hall while the Gaelic one was in the main church. We followed the usual Free Church custom of sitting to sing unaccompanied metric psalms the standing to pray. The Scottish 1850 Psalter was used so in Ps 22 we sang to be delivered from the horn of the unicorn, which in modern translation is a wild oxen. A visiting preacher gave a good word from Heb 1;1-3, especially good on, 'the joy set before him'. Our precentor was fine but one has to get used to letting him start each stanza on his own. If this was strange it was nothing compared to when we joined the Gaelic congregation for communion. Their precentor sings the whole first line then the people join in. It sounds to me like the singing of the Jews, and so it is. Someone else said it is like bagpipes but I would not be so unkind. I will settle for praise in a strange tongue. The church interior was impressive with three ministers on high about six foot up. Below them were two precentors on a raised platform, one precentor per language. The elders sat in a special pew around the pulpit with the deacons at the front sides. I fancy an elders' pew for IPC Ealing. After a Gaelic psalm finished the visiting minister began to fence the communion table. He did this in a three part address form Ps 27:5-6. It was most excellent, godly and moving talk, part before communion, part at the table and finally after communion. Very godly but I fear it had little to do with a proper exegesis of the text in its context.
The elders stood but we all sat for the minister's thanksgiving prayer. We remained seated as first the bread, cut white, was passed along each row followed swiftly by the cup which tasted to me like a decent port. Communion here is but twice a year and a solemn occasion. I forgot to say on being welcomed to the English service we were asked if we would be coming to the table and when we affirmed we were each given a Communion Token stamped, 'Shawbost Free Church 1890'. These had to be handed to an elder as we joined the Gaelic service. I wished I could have kept one as a reminder of Hebridean spirituality. After the service Alistair's uncle and aunt invited us to lunch. We even had a second lunch invitation from the wife of the minister. What a contrast to when over 25 years ago an American friend went to the very large Stornoway Free Church and no-one spoke to him after the service.uu
Lunch was excellent hospitality, rich lentil soup, ever so tender roast beef and Yorkshie pud followed by gateau with cream and ice cream. Conversation was stimulating with full and frank discussion on the forthcoming independence referendum.
We left in late afternoon to attend evening Free Church service in Stornoway. They have one way and pedestrian streets that fooled us two days running but on street parking is no problem. We had met the minister, Ivor Martin when he preached for us at IPC. The congregation was perhaps 200 to 300. More modern Psalms were also used as well as 1650 but here we stood to sing and sat to pray. Ivor's sermon on 2 Sam 6 was one of the best I have ever heard, on the presence of God, his holiness, joy in his presence and the danger of being a mere spectator of holy things. A great end to a memorable day.

i had my dell inspirion notebook for over a year now and never had problems with it starting on before. But recently like the middle of september whenever the monitor is moved or the slightest touch to the monitor is made for example if i try to move my computer to another surface to rest on or someone just brushes by it The monitor goes blank and i have to restart my computer again. Now the second problem has been happening for the past few days: Whenever the computer is off and i press the power button to turn it on, the power led light turns on and the battery led light turns on, but the screen wont turn on it just stays blank like it was never turned on. But eventually if i try 10 or more times it comes on but i have to be VERY careful to not move the laptop or else the monitor goes blank again. Could someone tell me what could be the problem and how to fix it?
This might all have to do with when my niece pulled my ac adapter while still in my notebook fall to the ground yet everything looked perfectly fine.
