The Medicine Wheel is a circle of power and knowledge, a way of understanding life framed in a circle. It teaches of our connection to all things, it shows us our way back to centre, our way home. The medicine Wheel is not a belief system but a way to see life clearly, a series of diagrams to help understand the structure of life and see how one action causes another. It reaches how to steer a good heart-full road through life's many challenges.
This course will take the form of a journey, first on the Red Road – to the South, (the past, the inner child, the emotional body, water, and the qualities of trust and innocence), and the North (the future, the adult, the mental body, air, and the qualities of knowledge and wisdom,) and second on the Blue Road – to the West (present moment, the inner spirit adult, the physical body, the earth and the qualities of self-knowledge) and the East (timeless, the magical child, the spirit, fire and the quality of personal power).

"Experiencing the first year of Leo's Journey round the Wheel of your Life course was one of the best decisions/choices I have made in recent years. If I said it has contributed to a great change in my life it would be close, but far more accurate is that it created a great change in me. Leo holds space as only an experienced and wise Elder can. He is willing to learn as we learn, he is expert in offering many layered ways to bring our lessons forth. The group became a family, the lessons of one was a teaching for us all! "Ruth Ford
"Thank you very much for these past months & the journey round the wheel. I gained much from this and the group and it has been lovely to reconnect with you.... In deep appreciation of what you bring & gratitude for what these months have brought me. I do hope you will keep in touch"Sally-Anne Fraser
"….want to let you know that since I have met you I actually feel Like I have something to offer the world and I knew that you would make me face myself and teach me all the things that I have ran away from. Thank you so much Leo for giving me the space to start to heal my wounds which run right through to my soul and are the foundation of my teaching."Peter Askew

Tips on Professional Services

It might be hard to find genuine professional service providers therefore one has to be extra keen when finding out bonafide ones. Before you decide on your service provider make sure to do thorough research on the chosen company. It is better to do it slowly but well. Nowadays most companies fabricate themselves as the genuine ones whereas they are not.

Mouse stopped working after updates!
Hi all, only me again.
My mouse has stopped working after i did some window's updates!, it's only a £4 mouse from asda in the UK, but was working fine before i did them. I went into my task manager and 2 of the USB's have warning's on them? Also this is the latest update that's killed my mouse.
Thankyou in advance

Whenever you do an update, the system automatically creates a restore point so you can "roll-back" from the updates.
You can do a system restore by following this guide. System Restore
Once your system is working properly again, go through and install each update one at a time to see which one gives you problems.
Hopefully, this helps

Is there anyway i can manualy uninstall one update?
|My System Specs
|15 Apr 2011
You can go to windows update through control panel or by typing "Windows Update" into the search bar
Once there, you will see your updates. IN the bottom left corner will be a "See also" tab that says "Installed Updates"
Click on Installed updates and you will see all of the installed updates. they should be listed in order of date. you can select individual updates and uninstall them.
I am not sure if it will correct the problem though in the same manner a system restore will restore the computer completely to a state from before the updates were applied. It is worth a shot though. Good luck!
|My System Specs

Yea I hope someone knows what is going on because the latest updates kill all USB ports on my system. Restoring a backup image fixes the problem and I have not been able to isolate the problem update so far but I have it narrowed down to 10. The problem does not occure on the first reboot, on my system it happens after 3-4 reboots, this complicates finding the update that is causing the problem. I have had to restore a backup 5 times and every time I allow updates to install they have disabled all USB functionallity. I might add this is on a relatively new system with no tweaking of the OS or overclocking but it is a high end very complex system.

Thanks for posting Pat247. Sorry to hear you are having this issue as well. Hopefully the update will be identified so it can be avoided.

I was begining to think that I was the only one with this problem until I came across this thread. There are some very smart people on this site so I have no doubt that the problem update will be identified and corrected. After 3 days of dealing with this I have decided to give it a rest and turned off auto updates.
Thorsen, thanks for the compliment and encouragement.

I'm having this same issue on my desktop. I had the same issue with my keyboard a while back, and unplugging everything from the computer and unplugging it from power for about 10 minutes fixed the problem. However the same fix isn't working with the mouse.
Again, Windows installed some update and now my mouse doesn't work. (Wireless mouse) I pulled out the wired mouse to get things done and the wired mouse fails to work as well.
I can't follow these instructions on how to do a System Restore because I can't use my mouse (obviously). I've tried using my keyboard to navigate using various shortcuts, unfortunately I can't get to where I need to go without a mouse. Any suggestions? I'm getting very fed up with Windows as of late.

The following is an condensed (just slightly, by me) excerpt of one of my favorite stories by Annie Dillard. It's in chapter six of The Writing Life. I have felt close to this story as an artist, particularly, and, overall, as a human, becoming awake, to whatever extent I am blessedly able to do so.
Paul Glenn was a painter, a strong-armed, soft-faced, big blond man in his fifties; every summer he lived down on the beach. He was a friend of the family. One summer morning I visited him, and asked about his painting. We sat at his kitchen table.
His recent easel painting, and his study of abstract expressionist Mark Tobey's canvases, and his new interest in certain Asian subjects, his understanding of texture in two dimensions, and…….. had gotten him experimenting with dipping paper into vats of water on which pools of colored oil floated. He had such papers drying on the kitchen counters. Some of them looked like a book's marbled endpapers, or fine wallpaper - merely decorative. Some others were complex and subtle surfaces, suggestive and powerful. Paul Glenn was learning which techniques of dripping the colors on the water, and which techniques of drawing the paper up through the colors, yielded the interesting results. He had been working at it for six months. How he was going to use the papers was another matter, and the crucial one; he could cut them into collage material, he could fold them into sculpture, he could paint over them and into them. He was following the work wherever it led.
The next summer, we returned to the island. Paul Glenn had spent the winter there. I visit him in his house on the beach in late June. He was tan of face already, and perfectly sane - witty and forceful, if a bit soft of voice.
I asked Paul how his work was going.
"You couldn't have known Ferrar Burn," he said.
We were sitting at the round table by the kitchen window….."He died twenty years ago. He was a joyful man, and a calm and determined one. He brought his family out here…..out here to this island, where there's nothing but what you can find on the beach or grow.
Evidently Paul did not want to talk about how his work was going. Fair enough.
"Ferrar was striking…..He and June build that cedar shack up at Fishery Point. It was her study. Their house was near the woods-nice timbers."
Paul knew that I knew all this……I was fresh from the mainland, a little too bright and quick. He laughed openly at what he could easily see was my impatience; we had been tolerant friends for a few year.
"One evening," he went on, "Ferrar saw a log floating out in the channel. It looked yellow, like Alaska cedar; he hoped it was Alaska cedar. He rowed out to get it."
Everyone on the island scavenged the valuable logs, for building. If the logs did not wash up on the beach, it took a motorboat to get them in; they were heavy in the water.
"It was high tide, slack. Ferrar saw the log, launched his little skiff at Fishery Point, and rowed out in the channel. Sure enough, it was that beautiful Alaska cedar, that pale yellow wood-just a short log, about eight feet, or never would have tried to get it without a motor. I guess he thought he could row it in while the tide was still slack."
"He tied onto the log"-such logs often have a big iron staple hammered into one end- "and started towing back home with it. He had about twenty feet of line on it. He started rowing home, and the tide caught him."
From Paul's window, I could look north up the beach and see Fishery Point……
"The tide started going out, and it caught that log and dragged it south. Ferrar kept rowing back north toward his house. The tide pulled him south down the strait here" Paul indicated the long sweep of water in front of his house- "from one end to the other. Ferrar kept rowing toward Fishery Point. He might as well have tied onto a whale. He was rowing to the north and moving fast to the south. He traveled stern first. He wanted to be going home, so toward home he kept pulling. When the sun set, at about nine o'clock, he'd swept south the length of this beach, rowing north all the way. When the moon rose a few hours later-he told us - he saw he'd swept south past the island altogether and out into the channel between here and Stuart Island. He had been rowing through those dark hours. He continued to row away from Stuart Island and continued to see it get closer.
"Then he felt the tide go slack, and the he felt it coming in again. The current had reversed.
"Ferrar kept rowing in the half moonlight. The tide poured in from the south. He kept rowing north for home-only now the log was with him. He and his log were both floating on the current, and the current was bearing them up and carrying them like platters. It started getting light at about three o'clock, and he rowed back past this island's southern tip. The sun came up, and he rowed all the length of this beach. The tide brought him back on home. He wife, June, saw him coming; she'd been curious about him all night."
Paul had a wide, loose, smile. He shifted in his chair. He raised his coffee cup, as if to say, Cheers.
"He pulled up on his own beach. They got the log rolled beyond the tideline. I saw him a few days later. Everybody knew he'd been carried out almost to Stuart Island, trying to bring in a log. Everybody knew he just kept rowing in the same direction. I asked him about it. He said he had a little backache. I didn't see the palms of his hands."
Paul looked into his empty cup, pleased, and then looked through the windows, still smiling. I started to carry my coffee cup to the sink, but he motioned me down. He wasn't finished.
"So, that's how my work is going," he said.
"You asked me how my work is going," he said. "That's how it's going. The current's got me. Feels like I'm about in the middle of the channel now. I just keep at it. I just keep hoping the tide will turn and bring me in."
Some of my thoughts: In reference to the matter of flow, of surrender, the subject of a recent conversation, this story could bring forth the question, also a subject in that dialogue, literally, of swimming upstream. As was mentioned in relation to salmon, sometimes swimming upstream is simply how we get to our destination and we keep paddling, working hard, persevering toward a particular place. This story is ultimately a tale of flow (as a letting go, an acceptance of what is occurring and persistence. Ferrar is rowing against the tide, in an adventure, that unlike a salmon's journey, is exceptional, rather than rule. And the surrender is pressed right up against perseverance. Rather than letting himself be carried out to sea, he takes action, rowing north all night, as he is strongly carried south. Is this a paradox? Rather, it is a juxtaposition, like so much in life; we are often letting go and persisting in the same scenario.
As an artist, I have experienced this many times. Currently, as a coach and artist, growing my practices, my I am taking many tangible steps; I am also accepting the flow, enjoying and being nourished by this journey, trusting the timing of my various shifts and expanding perceptions, enjoying my development.
Whether Ferrar was afraid, relaxed mentally, or strategic, calm and simply pragmatic,, holding his vision of getting back home (or a combination of these) is a mystery. I am finding all of these characteristics present as I live and grow.

A New Twist on an Old Idea
Acupuncture treats healing as an art, which is what sets it apart from other healing methods. It is able to accompany western medicine beautifully, and can be an awesome addition to many other healing styles. Seven Star Acupuncture takes the time to listen to you and treats your whole health history, not just your temporary situation. This allows clients to partner with their acupuncturist in a wellness plan, which brings about greater results. Although acupuncture is presently considered an alternative treatment, it is a 2000 year old art that will ultimately support a treatment method that brings back empowerment to the patient…the next wave in healthcare.

This is exactly why BAUNAT opened showrooms in Amsterdam, Genève, Paris and now also in Nice, France. In these showrooms, you can confidently buy diamonds and diamond jewels during your stay at the Côte d'Azur. Buying a diamond ring, a solitaire ring or an engagement ring in Nice in France? Our experts advise and guide you with your purchase.
Do's and don'ts
We also like to tell you what pitfalls you need to pay attention to when you buy jewellery abroad:
- Do not feel pressured to buy something after a few drinks in a shop. Sounds logical but it still happens more often than you think. We too like to create a friendly atmosphere when you contact us to discuss the purchase of a diamond ring in Nice, France, but you decide whether you would like to buy something or not.
- Turn the diamond jewel around and look at it that way. Does it seem like the diamond is hollow or like it is not finished completely, be careful then! When our craftsmen finish your jewel, you will notice that all our efforts are invested in the quality of the finished product. So, when in Nice, please turn your diamond ring or solitaire ring around.
- Ask the owner for a magnifying-glass so you can check the metalwork. In case you notice little dots, your purchase will not last for a long time. An unfortunate investment.
- Pay attention to the certificate. Every BAUNAT jewel that has a diamond bigger than 0.30 carat, you standardly receive a certificate from a renowned laboratory that describes the 4C's of your diamond. Also when you buy your diamond ring in Nice, France.
- In addition, during your holiday, consider your budget for the purchase of jewellery. On holiday, it is tempting to pay less attention to that.

Is Infliximab a Generic Remicade?No -- infliximab is the active ingredient in Remicade, but is not a generic version of it. What can be confusing is that, oftentimes, the active ingredient of a drug is referred to as the "generic name." The generic name is different from a generic version of a medicine. In order for there to be a generic version of a medicine, the original medicine must have gone off-patent and another company besides the original manufacturer must make the product.

Think quiffs, red lipstick and rebellious teens in the damaged world of post-war London. Now add a script that runs like a poem with cockney slang and rhymes, rock and roll live on-stage music from Johnny Valentine and the Broken Hearts and two actors that take on dozens of different characters while falling in love. That's Teddy!
As Teddy and Josie hit the streets of London on a Saturday night in 1956, they are looking for a good time, and plan to have one.
From the writer-director team behind Boudica at the Globe and Frankenstein at The Watermill Theatre and Wilton's Music Hall in London comes Teddy, an award-winning, punchy new musical is there to get you jiving and moving.
The night's events are told by fabulous actors Molly Chesworth and George Parker. Chesworth is the tough-as-nails Josie, a feisty 17 year old with an attitude. Chesworth creates some great characters, including turning herself into 6 foot, sleazy gangster and her drunken father.
Parker is the charming and charismatic Teddy, a loveable rogue who falls in love with Rosie. An electric and energetic performance.
The live band are quick witted and creative as they interact with the actors and have their own stories themselves. The music they play is catchy and showed off their ability as musicians and singers as well.
If you want a creative storytelling piece with great music and dancing, Teddy is the show for you.
Teddy continues at The Lowry until Saturday 17th February and then continues a full UK tour. http://snapdragonproductions.com/productions/teddy/

Gone are the days when an attorney's sole source of business relied upon word-of-mouth referrals from friends and family. More and more consumers of all kinds rely on opinions and experiences of people whom they've never met to provide trusted insights. Couple that with heightened competition from other firms and do-it-yourself legal options, and the challenges to stay relevant mount.
This is the new normal for many firms out there. So how do you go about differentiating yourself in a crowded marketplace? According to the 2016 Thomson Reuters State of the U.S. Small Law Firm survey, 46 percent of firms considered enhancing their reputation in the local community a key goal.
Maintaining a good reputation is an important part of any attorney's ongoing activities. A positive reputation is often what causes a potential client to seek the services of a specific law firm or attorney. In fact, 88 percent of consumers stated that a lawyer's "reputation" was one of the top two most important pieces of information they rely when choosing an attorney.
You may already know the importance of reputation management because you've participated in the Super Lawyers selection process, attended one of our events or promoted your selection on social media. But what happens when someone you've advised finds you online and leaves a negative review? Your website, ads and social media profiles might be well-written, but the reviews and ratings you receive have the power to impact your reputation beyond anything you write yourself.
The thought of altering your marketing strategy to adapt to the new normal can be intimidating at first. Thankfully our friends at FindLaw put together a "New Normal Quiz" that will take you through a few quick questions about running a modern law firm. Once you've gone through the quiz, you'll be emailed your full results, along with strategies to improve.

Tischa Kent
Tischa's music is quite varied from Pop-rock to Soul and has some Native American influence in some of the songs.
Most of her songs are about the freedom to express ourselves, but also about standing up for one's right (Soul of a Rebel), love and spiritual search through nature.
Tischa uses her music as a way to contribute to a change such as respect of animals, homeless and injustice but also to express her feelings about her vision of the world and love.
Tischa is a singer-songwriter based in Canterbury but originally from the South of France. She regularly plays and busks around Kent and in festivals. Everytime she writes a song there is a deep meaningful message that she wants to convey to challenge people's perspective of the world but also to express her true feelings.
Tischa transitioned from vegetarian to vegan 3 years ago because she wanted to fully contribute to a change to save animals' lives and improve their wellbeing. Vegan foods also have a higher vibration to her and she prefers consuming foods with beautiful energy. Tischa has been very sensitive to animal rights since childhood and she wished veganism was as widespread then as it is now. She is glad we are finally moving in the right direction!

Jan. 20; Incubus share the stage with Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. to another sold-out crowd on Thurs. Jan. 25; Southern rock band Blackfoot make like raggedy hobos on Fri. Jan. 26. Check the full schedule at www.hob.com.
Decency and Diamonds
A Decent Animal bassist Richard Weld has his beard in tangles in anticipation of an upcoming show on Sat. Jan. 27 at Cumberland's featuring Nashville blues/rock duo Black Diamond Heavies – organist/singer John Wesley Myers and drummer/singer Van Campbell. The duo leaves for a three-month tour from Nashville to London and back in support of a new album titled Every Damn Time (Alive). Weld's in the opening act, Lasso – a new, loosely-formed combo featuring guitarist Jonathan Nicholson and drummer George Baerreis (both of A Decent Animal), vocalist Lindsay Holler (on piano), and guitarist Nick Jenkins. See www.blackdiamondheavies.com and www.myspace.com/adecentanimal for more.
Ride On
Local party band Joy Ride (choice '70s and '80s covers and dance hits) has shuffled their lineup and booked a full season of shows at Henry's on the Boulevard (816 Johnnie Dodds Blvd. in Mt. Pleasant) and at the three Wild Wing locations. The band features members of Sold Out, Carolina Connection, and other acts. Three harmonious frontladies – Leslie Carter, Caitlin Cahill, and Stephanie Smith – are backed by keyboardist Miles Bryant, guitarist Marty "Lefty" Parker, and bassist Jeff Calafiore (all formerly of Sold Out), and drummer Adam Bradley (ex-Big Black Building). (Cahill also works as City Paper's web editor). Look for them at Henry's on Fri. Jan. 12 and at the downtown Wild Wing on Fri. Jan. 19.
More WAVE Shifts
Strange things are afoot at 96 Wave. Apparently there's been another big push in playlist format away from the semi-cool "classic alternative" and modern rock stuff that set the station apart from most homogenized modern rock stations toward the heavier "nü-rock," emo-metal, high-budget pop-punk, and warmed-over major label grunge that sounds so stale and familiar. Former morning show host The Critic announced on Fri. Jan. 5 that he'd be moving to the 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. midday shift (a move he seems relieved about, seeing as he won't have to rise at 4 a.m. any more) and a new syndicated show out of Grand Rapids, Mich., called "Free Beer & Hot Wings" (www.freebeerandhotwings.com) started on Mon. Jan. 8. According to reports, longtime DJ, morning show co-host, and City Paper reader favorite "Stupid Mike" Vili has been let go or demoted, as has rookie traffic reporter Uncomfortable Don (a harmless morning character who somehow, maybe accidentally, made even the most gruesome traffic incidents sound cheerful). Stupid Mike spent two years on the air at 96 Wave with cohosts Kenny "Kenny Z" Zimlinghaus and Storm Zbel on the "Storm & Kenny Radio Show with Stupid Mike" before the station chucked it last spring. Mike will get to reconnect with his local fans soon, however, when he joins Kenny Z on stage during this month's Charleston Comedy Festival. Two "Kenny Z & Friends" stand-up comedy events are set for Wed. Jan. 17 and Fri. Jan. 19 at Cumberland's. Kenny's kept busy doing an internet radio show with cohost Greg Johnson, who will be on hand for the festival as well. Show times are 8:30 p.m. and tickets are $10. Check out more at www.myspace.com/stormandkenny and www.charlestoncomedyfestival.com.
Orange County skate-punk/surf-rock trio Agent Orange – founding member and singer/guitarist Mike Palm, drummer Dusty Watson, and bassist Bruce Taylor (ex-J.F.A.) – are set to headline at Cumberland's on Thurs. Jan. 18 with support from local rock trio The Lowercase Thieves and veteran old-school punk band Hybrid Mutants. Tickets are available at the club for $10 (adv.) and $12 (day of show). Check www.agentorange.net for the latest.
Wood Ya
Wood Pile – a bluegrass/country/rock duo featuring guitarist/banjo player Walter Biffle and guitarist/mandolinist Hugh Price – played their last weekly show on Folly Beach at Taco Boy last Thurs. Jan. 4 ... at least until springtime. "Walter and I are going to be working this winter on our Christmas album for next year, while all the tunes are still fresh in our heads," reports Price.
Hey Manager
Charleston-based band manager and promoter Josh Terry – best known for his work with Motion City Soundtrack, Leslie, and booking agent for Owen Beverly and Ward Williams – accepted a job at A-Squared Management/Aware Records in Chicago (www.asquaredmgmt.com). Terry will continue to work with Leslie and Motion City Soundtrack as well as The Fray, Liz Phair, and Mat Kearney. –T. Ballard Lesemann

POLITICO POLL: JURY STILL OUT ON USMCA: The trade deal formerly known as NAFTA — the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement — may not be a slam dunk among voters, but it's getting a slightly favorable reaction in a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll released this morning.
Of the 2,189 voters surveyed, 32 percent said the new pact would have a much better or somewhat better impact on U.S. consumers. Twenty-three percent of respondents said it would have no change, 12 percent said it would be worse or much worse and 32 percent had no opinion on the question.
When it came to the new agreement's potential impact on manufacturing workers, 38 percent said it would be much better or somewhat better. Only 8 percent thought it would be worse or much worse, 21 percent predicted no change and 33 percent had no opinion.
USMCA in the news: A clear majority of 66 percent of respondents said they had seen, read or heard either a lot or some information about the USMCA. However, only 43 percent thought the deal was very or somewhat different from NAFTA. Twenty-four percent said it was not too or not at all different from the original deal, while 34 percent had no opinion.

EU MOVES QUICKLY TO GET U.S. BEEF TALKS UNDERWAY: The European Union is eager to move forward on negotiations with the U.S. that would open up a larger share of its hormone-free beef quota to American ranchers. Representatives of EU member states in Brussels are expected to approve a mandate today that lays out the negotiating parameters for the European Commission, which negotiates on behalf of the 28-nation bloc. EU trade ministers could give approval next week, two EU diplomats told our POLITICO EU colleague Hans von der Burchard.
"We want to negotiate swiftly," one trade attaché said, while a second one remarked that the mandate had passed the Council remarkably fast for a trade issue dealing with the sensitive topic of beef. "There's clearly an ambition to show goodwill toward the United States" and prevent President Donald Trump from returning to tariff threats, such as hitting a 25 percent levy on European cars, the official said.
A dry-aged dispute: The U.S. threatened tariffs last year after it accused the EU of violating a 2009 peace agreement that ended a years-long World Trade Organization dispute over the EU's ban on hormone-treated beef. To avoid tariffs almost 10 years ago, Brussels established a quota of 45,000 metric tonnes (nearly 50,000 in U.S. tons) of hormone-free beef but lower-cost producers in Australia and Uruguay quickly crowded out U.S. ranchers.
America first: The Commission has said that it wants to allocate a certain share of the quota exclusively to American farmers. U.S. producers have already demanded that it get 35,000 tons annually. That means less meat from Australia and Uruguay, which are already strongly protesting (Australia last year used about 17,000 tons of the beef quota).
MAJOR BUSINESS GROUPS STILL REVIEWING USMCA: It could be weeks before the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Manufacturers and the Business Roundtable decide whether to support the USMCA and push for its approval. All three groups are still poring over the text and consulting with member companies, aides said.
Chamber President Tom Donohue published a blog on Sunday expressing relief that the agreement remains trilateral and citing "numerous wins" in the areas of digital trade, intellectual property, financial services and agriculture. But he also said he's disappointed with the pact's investment protections and government procurement provisions.
Other groups still "reviewing" the agreement include the National Foreign Trade Council, the Coalition of Services Industries, the Motion Picture Association of America, the Information Technology Industry Council, the American Farm Bureau Federation, the National Association of Wheat Growers and the National Corn Growers Association.
Major labor groups such as the AFL-CIO, the United Steelworkers, the Teamsters and the United Auto Workers have not endorsed the pact, saying more work is needed to get their support. In that vein, business groups may also be looking for "fixes" to win their approval.
Some business groups have already endorsed the deal, including the Internet Association, BSA | The Software Alliance, the American Petroleum Institute, the American Soybean Association, the National Pork Producers Council, the National Cattlemen's Beef Association and the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. However, many ag groups remain concerned about retaliation on their exports because of Trump's tariffs.
Others expressing disappointment with at least some of the provisions include the Recording Industry Association of America and the National Farmers Union.
THE NEW NAFTA ISN'T DONE YET: On the latest POLITICO Money podcast, POLITICO Pro Canada's Alexander Panetta breaks down exactly what is in the revamped NAFTA deal and the legislative and political challenges it still faces. South China Morning Post U.S. correspondent Owen Churchill also explains how Beijing is reacting to the USMCA and where the trade war between the U.S. and China is headed next.
EU GETS BLASTED FOR BREXIT TRQ PROPOSAL: The U.S. along with 14 other countries opposed plans by the EU to modify its WTO commitments in order to renegotiate tariff-rate quotas on sensitive food imports as part of the United Kingdom's expected exit from the trading bloc.
The U.S., Russia, New Zealand, Japan, Canada, Uruguay, Australia, Brazil, Thailand, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, China, India and Cuba all ganged up on Brussels, questioning the accuracy of import data and methodology Brussels proposed in May to recalculate the quotas that account for Brexit.
Unintended consequences: The U.S. delegation said the EU's proposal does not reflect commercial realities and could result in a loss of market access for the United States, according to notes provided by a trade official in the room.
Washington also lit into U.K. plans to present its own post-Brexit WTO schedules and quota commitments by rectification (a process that simply splits the current overall trade of a good between what is currently imported by the EU and the U.K.), without entering into negotiations with third countries. The U.S. envoy "expressed deep concern over not having the opportunity to negotiate directly with the U.K. its future schedule of concessions," according to the notes.
While Brussels and London have jointly informed the WTO membership of their intent to split their food quotas after Brexit, only the EU has said that it wants to launch negotiations on these quotas.
IMPORTS EXPECTED TO SET RECORD IN 2018, DESPITE TARIFFS: Ports handled a near record volume of imports in August and are expected to keep up the busy pace through the end of the year, despite tariffs imposed by Trump, the National Retail Federation said Monday.
"Retailers are continuing to import merchandise in order to meet consumer demand, even though tariffs are now in place on roughly half the goods imported from China and the trade war is still escalating," NRF Vice President for Supply Chain and Customs Policy Jonathan Gold said in a statement.
Imports totaled 10.3 million twenty-foot equivalent units, or TEUs, in the first half of 2018, an increase of 5.1 percent over the first half of 2017, the NRF said. Final figures for all of 2018 are expected to reach 21.4 million TEUs, 4.4 percent more than last year's record 20.5 million TEUs. To read more, click here.
SAN ANTONIO SIGNING PROPOSAL MADE OFFICIAL: As previewed in Morning Trade, Texas Reps. Henry Cuellar and Will Hurd released a letter Monday to Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and outgoing Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto urging them to choose San Antonio as the site for the signing of the USMCA. They were joined by Rep. Lamar Smith. There was no immediate reaction from the White House or USTR and still no official confirmation when or where the deal will be signed.
Buenos Aires signing? Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo noted last week that the "logical" plan for a signing ceremony would be on Nov. 29 in Buenos Aires, ahead of the G-20 summit. Guajardo explained that "it's the only place where the three presidents will" be together before Peña Nieto's last day in office on Nov. 30. The three countries' top trade officials could also sign it, he noted.
AMLO GETS DOWN TO USMCA SEMANTICS IN MEXICO: Mexican President-elect Andrés Manuel López Obrador launched a Twitter poll on Tuesday to crowdsource ideas on how Mexicans should refer to the USMCA in Spanish. He said his NAFTA negotiator, Jesús Seade, asked that they find a name for the updated deal because USMCA is "not adequate."
López Obrador proposes naming it TEUMECA, which translates to Treaty of the United States, Mexico and Canada, or T-MEC, which translates to Treaty of Mexico, United States and Canada. He added that Guajardo and Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray agree with him that the name should be similar to the English version in listing the three countries' names, start with a 'T' for treaty in Spanish and be pronounceable in Spanish. Mexican officials, including chief NAFTA negotiator Kenneth Smith Ramos, have referred to it as AMEC with the A standing for agreement in Spanish, but López Obrador argued that it should be referred to as a treaty.
Washington-Mexico City mingling: Guajardo, Videgaray and Seade are in Washington today for the U.S.-Mexico CEO Dialogue, which is organized annually by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and its Mexican counterpart, Consejo Coordinador Empresarial. The officials will be part of meetings between business leaders from the U.S. and Mexico, who will discuss ways to "deepen the opportunities that the new trade framework opens," CCE said in press release on Tuesday.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is reporting that 98 people from 22 states have now become ill after eating romaine lettuce that was grown from a farm in Yuma, Arizona. About half of the individuals have been hospitalized and some have developed kidney failure. The CDC is now advising consumers not to eat romaine lettuce that comes from Yuma. Restaurants, grocery stores, and other retailers should also not sell or serve romaine lettuce unless it can be clearly determined that it does not come from the affected region.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is working closely with the CDC to investigate how the contamination happened and how it spread. In an official advisory, the FDA has stated:
"In a typical traceback effort, CDC and the FDA identify clusters of people who became ill, especially in different geographical regions and work to trace the food eaten by those made ill to a common source. For this outbreak investigation, we have been able to identify romaine lettuce as the common food source, but the available packaging provides very limited information on the source of the products. With limited packaging information, FDA scientists and investigators are working with federal and state partners and companies as quickly as possible to collect, review and analyze hundreds of records in an attempt to traceback the source of the contaminated romaine lettuce. To date, our traceback has revealed that romaine lettuce potentially contaminated with E. coli O157:H7 came from the Yuma growing region, but was supplied to restaurants and retailers through multiple processors, grower/shipper companies, and farms."
When it comes to the prevention of food borne illnesses, the main governing law is the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA). The federal statute aims to ensure the U.S. food supply is safe by shifting the focus of federal regulators from responding to contamination to preventing it. The Act authorizes the FDA and the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to increase inspections of many domestic food facilities enhance detection of food borne illness outbreaks, and order recalls of tainted food products. The Act also requires most food companies to write and implement new safety protocols to mitigate potential hazards. Additionally, the Act mandates increased scrutiny for imported food products. The law also contains a food safety whistleblower provision designed to encourage employee reporting of food safety concerns and protect the whistleblower from retaliation by the whistleblower's employer. Click this link for more information on FSMA.
People with questions about food safety can call the FDA at 1-888-SAFEFOOD or visit the FDA website.

There's Somethin' About Christmas Time!
Yesterday our GREAT friends KRISTI and Peg Walker (HI KRISTI!!!!! I love you!) stopped by with a warm apple pie to share! We sat around the table and gabbed for a long time until more of our family rolled into the driveway! Yay for Grandma and Aunt Keren coming all the way from IA and IL! WHOO HOO! I got to finish the beautiful day with a lovely phone conversation... ;)
Then today I got to have a very special wake-up call, followed by breakfast with two very special girls in my life! There was laughter galore and of course some tears!
Later Father and I took Grammy to run her errands and then went to shop the afternoon away together! It wore us both out! I am amazed at the stamina dad has to shop, walk around, and keep up. We even stopped at Wegmans and just drooled over all the baked goods. So FUN!
Dad and I were reminiscing about our life-long tradition of heading into the woods with an ax and sled, trying to pick a "small" tree, chopping it down, and bringing it back to the house, only to find out it was actually ENORMOUS! (We secretly LOVE enormous Christmas tree's!)
I love my home! I love my family! And I can't wait until tomorrow when MORE come over the river and through the woods....
Oh, and I am anticipating ending the day the same lovely way it began...we shall see... =)
I stand in awe of my Savior. I stand in awe of his deep, intimate, and personal love for ME. I stand in awe of His unfathomable power. I stand in awe of His ways. I stand in awe of the beauty he created from ashes. I stand in awe of Psalm 23. I stand in awe that He is my Shepherd. I stand in awe because HE RESTORED MY SOUL.
I stand in awe of YOU, Jesus. So I'll let my words be few...
Jesus, I am so in love with you...
The National Christmas Tree!
I think I squealed when I first caught a glimpse of it. To say it's enormous is an understatement! Obviously, it's so big you can't even see the whole tree in the picture. One of my favorite parts were the 57 other tree's surrounding The Big Guy in the middle. I know there are not 57 states in our country, but I can't honestly remember what the extra ones are. One was Portico, Portugal, or something. =) ANYWAY there was a smaller Christmas tree for each state in our country!
Well, as we crossed each "M state" tree I was getting more and more excited to find the Minnesota tree! Once it appeared, I leaned closer to read the lil sign, and what do I see? None other then the sign displaying our very own BACHMAN'S, who decorated the Minnesota tree! I totally freaked! I made my friend take a million pictures of the sign so I could show every one! I was flooded with Bachman's/Patricks memories and my heart was so warmed!
Missing Minnesota
The MOA
I miss walking in The MOA at 6:24 AM every morning and being awed by the thousands of strands of lights dangling so delicately from the ceiling. I miss gazing at them and being mesmerized each day. I miss those moments before the hustle and bustle started at The Mall. Just me and the lights. Every thing was dark except for the little lights. That was the only time of day one could experience such a scene in The Mall.
I miss Black Friday with Matt at 4 AM and shopping in our dorky red matching T-shirts after work.
I miss walking around and shopping in my favorite mall. I miss my favorite stores that only The MOA has! There was something so special about me living so far away from the fam, and getting them presents from THE MALL OF AMERICA!
I miss the enormous Christmas tree on the East side. I loved resting my arms on the railings of level 2 and watching whatever was taking place around the tree that day in the rotunda.
I miss those gigantic red Christmas ball things that were always placed on the lawn on the West side. I miss the gigantic wreaths hung all over the place.
OK. I am starting to cry, so I'm moving on.
I miss my MOA Starbucks. Don't get me wrong, I am very happy at my VA store, but there's something so unbelievably special to me about my MOA II Starbucks. I miss my friends there. I miss our old crew. I miss how horribly stressful and busy it was, but we all did it together. We bonded. We were a little Starbucks MOA II family because no one else could understand how hard it was to work there, but we did. And we conquered every day. Together.
I miss walking in the day of the roll out to a Christmas Wonderland. The red cups, the new signs, the Holiday drinks, all the new retail that I wanted to buy, the ornaments, the mugs, the tumblers, Christmas blend, the Christmas music playing (I like the sleigh ride!!), and how excited I got just stepping into my store. I miss my MOA II people so much.
Great. Crying again.
Our Apartment
I miss Swz, a lot. I miss going for our FIRST Peppermint Mocha of the season, after having waited an ENTIRE YEAR to indulge. I even miss the stupid Chinese food that Swz and Boogz ordered WITH our PM's. Even though I was ticked because I said Chinese food was NOT Christmasy!
I miss our decorating night. I miss Boogz making fun of our millions of decorations. I miss her complaining about watching Home Alone on VHS. I miss our 2 little tree's. I miss Swz almost burning our apartment down by catching my (used-to-be-beautiful) tree on fire.
I miss my Christmas dishes and mugs. I miss my Christmas tablecloth and Christmas candles.
I miss exchanging presents with Boogs and Swz. I miss stockings with Swz. I miss watching "A Boyfriend for Christmas" on VHS, even though to this day, it's the most boring movie on earth, especially since it was fuzzy and there was a buzzing the entire 2 hours. I miss trying on my Puma outfit and dancing around, thus acquiring the nickname "Pumzy".
I miss the gazillions of left overs and amazing cookies that Mama and Grandmama Swz would always send over.
I miss the Holidazzle parade. Once with the Chapmans and the kids almost died of frost bite. And again with Boogz and Swz watching from inside The News Room. (Boogz? Be caught outside in an uncomfortable condition??!) I sat at dinner partly in fear because I knew I was so poor I could not afford one darn thing on the menu. Then God prompted Swz to pay the bill. I will never forget that.
The GC
I miss my GC community all the time. Every week. I miss walking into the room and feeling instantly part of the family. I miss knowing deep down inside that my presence in that place was wanted, needed.
I miss leading the children's Christmas program. (Even though I know it wasn't the most spectacular, and I KNOW Gretchen will BLOW that program out of the water this year!) I miss them ringing their bells. I miss Ronsi's bells going flying across the room and the horrified look on her face. I miss Tori knowing EVERY word and being so proud to sing the loudest.
I miss Eric leading Christmas songs with 19 disclaimers per song. I miss Gretchen's sugar cookies. I miss Jamie's sweet potato casserole.
I miss my GC family.
I've been mulling this all over in my mind for quite awhile. And I realized as I was drying my hair this morning that I miss my HOME. I miss my own home. I had a friend ask me the other night if I felt like I could come back to my current house and just unwind. I do feel at home here, I do feel at rest here, but what it comes down to is, it's not my own.
I miss my home. MN was my own. God established me there. My own home, my own church family, my own friends, and I miss it so much. (Yep, crying again.)
Thank you God for some of the most difficult and yet some of the best years of my life in my beloved Minnesota, my own home.
I love you all.
Enjoy Minnesota Christmas just a little bit more for me.
While You Were Sleeping
Update: Dad got all 59 (YES! 59!) staples out today! His stitches, too! YAY!
Big Mel and Johnny Cakes. Absolutely thrilled to have their picture taken! This is in the first family waiting room- the NICE one!
Bethie Update
For Bethie
Dancing for JOY!
Thank you so much for praying for their safe return. My mom said she could FEEL every one's prayers.
I heard an amazing message on prayer last night, and I am still mulling it over in my mind. I am still wondering why God chose to answer our deepest prayers and bring my father through his 3rd open heart surgery. I am wondering if God was glorified through this situation. I hope so in the worst way. I am wondering if I would still praise God if the outcome wasn't what I had prayed for. I can only hope, and pray that it would be.
For now, I rest in thanking my Heavenly Father for my earthly father's life! My heart is so thankful that almost every Christmas song I hear brings me to tears. My heart is so full of awe and praise of my mighty God that I can hardly sing without choking up.
Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow!
We are dancing for JOY that my daddy is HOME!! =)
Check us out! (Thanks Katie and Chuck! I laughed so hard I cried!=)

dress | similar shoes | necklace | bag
One of the biggest challenges for me as a mom/blogger is finding the balance between attending events and spending time with my boys. I'm lucky enough to stay home with Bear, so we get lots of quality time together. Zach gets home around 6pm most days so we get the full evening with him, which Bear and I both love. It seems like the busier I get as a blogger, the more event invitations come my way. I didn't realize until lately that I get a serious case of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) when I RSVP no to these events. But y'all, the struggle is so real. I had three events last week and I felt really guilty leaving my boys for all of them. There's a big fashion show tomorrow night that I really want to attend, but I'm still feeling guilty about going to three last week!
I try to attend no more than one evening event a week, that way I still have plenty of time with my boys but get a chance to socialize (and work!), as well. Some weeks like the last are harder to come by when the events are all just too important to miss. I remind myself as I'm walking out the door and my boys have a puppy-dog-sad look on their face that MAMA DESERVES A BREAK! And I'm typically happier and more myself the following day, after getting a chance to just relax and have a good time with the girls. The outfit above was worn to the Elaine Turner fall collection preview last week, which was a total dream. Don't let the shopping carts fool you; my idea of a fun night out is definitely not to the grocery store. :) We snapped these at Whole Foods right around the corner from the event (and yes, got some funny looks).
Before blogging, I rarely ever had a night out (with Zach or my girlfriends). I breastfed Bear for 15 months, and he wouldn't take a bottle, so I could never be away from him for more than a couple of hours. As a blogger, we are expected to be seen at certain events. It's honestly part of the job. And while it's pretty amazing and I love every minute of it, I'm always thinking about my sweet boys at home when I'm away. I have to remind myself that they are fine and probably not missing me near as much as I'm missing them. As moms, we just need a break sometimes. Whether it's a formal invite only fashion show or a quick trip to Starbucks in sweats, stepping away from the madness for a bit can be a really positive thing. Our sanity thanks us.
xo, Britt

Instead of standing up for the men and women who selflessly serve their country, the president – once again – took the side of the man who helped put him in the White House, thanking the Russian president for cutting the U.S. government's payroll." MORE

TxdGen/Optimizing GTA3 Textures
Grand Theft Auto 3 has been released with many uncompressed and palettized textures. This has resulted in huge TXD files on the disk and the game directory. It turns out that the GTA3 engine supports DXTn compression, but Rockstar Games never made use of that. Compressing all the game's world textures is quick and fun. It will dramatically improve the disk space requirement. More importantly compression reduces the memory load of the game. This is critical if you play on low-end hardware or want to add mods to the game. Let's get started!
At the time of writing, TxdGen version 0.9 is current.
If you have any problems following this tutorial, visit the TxdGen topic on GTAForums.
Video tutorial (high quality download)
Step 1: Requirements
Unlike creating a custom PS2 SA installation, the requirements are simple.
- TxdGen 0.8.3 or newer
- a GTA3 installation
A clean installation of GTA3 is not required.
Step 2: Downloading and Preparing
First off, download the latest version of TxdGen and place it on the desktop.
How to install TxdGen
- Place the downloaded txdgen_*.zip archive onto your desktop
- Right click on the icon and select "Extract All"
- Press the "Extract" button.
- You now have a txdgen_* folder on your desktop
Next we want to configure the tool. Inside of the TxdGen folder you see a txdgen.ini file. This is the central configuration file. You should fiddle around with the settings if you got spare time.
Here is a recommended set of options.
Keep the TxdGen directory window around.
Then you need to install GTA3 if you have not done so already.
- it is recommended to install it into C:/Program Files/Rockstar Games/GTAIII/.
- open that folder and browse into models/
- you will see gta3.img and txd.img among some TXD files.
- restore the TxdGen window and browse into "txdgen_in/"
Now you need to copy the TXD files that should be converted into the "txdgen_in/" folder. Make sure that you back them up incase you want to restore them.
- gta3.img and gta3.dir
- txd.img and txd.dir
- particle.txd
- generic.txd
All .img files will be processed automatically and rebuilt when the conversion has finished.
Step 3: Converting the Textures
Since everything is in place, all you gotta do now is execute
txdgen.exe. A console window will open with debug information. You can follow the progress of conversion in it. It is completely automatic and may take some time, depending on the processing power of your workstation.
If there is any problem with the input texture archives, the converter will output warnings and, in severe cases, errors.
Step 4: Updating the game
Once the console window has closed on its own, the conversion has finished. The output is located in the "txdgen_out/" folder in your TxdGen installation. Browse into it and copy all the files that are inside of it back into the game directory (
C:/Program Files/Rockstar Games/GTAIII/models/).
Now you can launch the game and check it out!

55+ Housing Demand Forecast
Demand for 55 + Housing is at an all-time high in Bucks County, Pa.
With a growing number of Baby Boomers reaching retirement age, 55+ communities may become even more popular with older homebuyers. The National Association of Home Builders, expects home sales in 55+ communities to increase by nearly 25 percent this year. By 2020, they also estimate that households over 55 years old could be as high as 46.6 percent (up from 42 percent in 2012).
The Demand for 55+ Housing in Bucks County is GREAT! We wish we had more inventory. Many communities have a waiting list due to the community's popularity. Some of the communities have not seen a home come on the market in months, or even a year.
These Communities include:
Legacy Oaks in Warrington
The Villas at Chancellor's Glen in Bensalem
The Villas at Riverview in Bristol (One just came on the market!)
Heritage Creek Estates in Warrington – A Single Home
The Villages of Doylestown
Avenrowe in Fairless Hills
The Quarters in Newtown
The Villas at Five Ponds in Warminster
Yardley Point in Yardley
The Swain Real Estate Team is watching each 55+ community closely. If you have an interest in one on these communities, let us know and we will make sure you are on our waiting lists to be notified first! Just email us at email@example.com or call us at (215) 757-7257.
To meet the demand, Bucks County has a few new construction 55+ Communities.
Regency at Yardley
Delancey Court – Newtown, Pa
The Preserve at Lamplighter Village
The Enclave at Upper Makefield
Village of Southampton - Southampton, Pa
Meridian of Valley Square - Warrington, Pa
For many we talk to amenities are important. The amount of amenities offered can vary greatly from one community to the next. All of the new construction, except for The Enclave at upper Makefield and Village of Southampton, offer a clubhouse with amenities.
While active adult developments typically cater to those who want to downsize with small, thoughtfully designed homes, many new communities include homes in a wide range of sizes. It is not unusual to find model homes ranging in size from barely 1,000 to over 3,000 square feet in the same community. Many homes continue to offer main-level living, with first-floor master bedroom suites, but second-story lofts are becoming a popular way to extend the living space.
If you have any questions or are ready to find your 55 and greater community, contact us today at firstname.lastname@example.com or call us at (215) 757-7257. We are more than willing to help you.
What is a Quad?
A common question I get from 55+ Community candidates is What is a Quad? So I thought I would share with everything a few details that many may not realize.
What is a Quad?
A quad house is a house attached on 2 consecutive or perpendicular sides to 2 other houses, each one with private and direct entrance via their front or side garden. When facing any of the four sides of the group, they appear to be semi-detached houses. Quad pretty clearly describes the style. If you 'cut' the building into quarters, each corner would be one unit. What is nice about this style is each unit has two exterior walls on the corner. Garages typically divide the units on the first floor, giving a feeling of separation and great privacy.
Typically upstairs builders offered a loft, attic storage, and option bathroom. This again would be the divider for the second story. We see a great example of this is one of more popular communities, The Villas at Shadybrook where the upstairs level is a huge open loft with storage and an optional full bath used for guests or as a third bedroom.
The Villas at Shadybrook were built by McGrath. McGrath built a few of the 55+ communities in Bucks County, Pa including The Villas at Riverview, Avenrowe, The Villages at Flowers Mill, Villas of Newtown, and The Villas at Five Ponds. McGrath offered a few popular floor plans that were offered in a few of their 55+ communities: The Mulberry, The Rosewell, The Thornhill.
Both The Villas at Chancellor's Glen and The Villas at Regent's Glen in Bensalem, Pa were built by Granor Price.
The Villas at Chancellor's Glen was built in response to the demand for The Villas at Regent's Glen which only has 68 homes in their 55+ Community. Both were built with the same floor plan which included a basement and offered 1,265 sq ft. With options you could have up to 1,518 sq ft.
Legacy Oaks in Northampton, Pa was built by Barness and offered three different floor plans. Like the other Quads they too offered a loft upstairs, optional storage room, and optional bathroom.
Quads also often have a fair amount of green space around the buildings, giving each unit its own private corner and a feeling more like a house than many townhome styles. I encourage many of my client's to keep an open mind to a quad, because once you step in one it feels more like being in a single family home than a condo or townhome.
Check out the 55+ Quad Communties we have here in Bucks County, Pa.
55+ Quad Communities in Bucks County, Pa:
Villas at Chancellor's Glen Bensalem, Pa
Villas at Regents Glen Bensalem, Pa
Villas at Riverview Bristol, Pa
Avenrowe Fairless Hills, Pa
Villas at Shadybrook Langhorne, Pa
The Villages of Flowers Mill Langhorne, Pa
Villas of Newtown Newtown, Pa
Legacy Oaks Richboro, Pa

Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin
I was a happy go lucky 3 year old...and the good kid :). My brother was 5. We didn't change roles of bad kid/good kid until i hit my teens, but that's a blog for another day.
My father, a pastor, preached almost every other Sunday at the little chapel on the hill that served as the church building for the ministry he has worked at for the past 25 years. It is a quaint, old-fashioned building with squeaky floors covered in scarlet red carpet and lumpy pews of the same color. It even has a sort of bell tower with a Notre Dame type bell on a rope that you pull to ring. There was an organ on the left, a piano on the right, and a solid wooden pulpit in the middle with a crack running down it from an incident during a deliverance session (also a blog for another day). Outside the chapel, there was a long, concrete sidewalk that curved all the way to the hard, concrete steps. Concrete...pretty hard stuff.
My brother, Jonathan, had a Big Wheel. If you're a child of the 80's, then you'll know that a Big Wheel is a plastic bike with three wheels, a HUGE one in the front, that rides low to the ground. I was a fan of my big brother back then...wanted to be just like him and follow him around and annoy him...all that good stuff little siblings do. So, i watched him place his Big Wheel at the top of the winding sidewalk and ride it all the way down towards the chapel till the huge front wheel bounced harmlessly off the bottom step of the chapel stairs. Woohoo! looked like fun to me. Being the fearless 3 year-old that i was, i promptly climbed aboard my tricycle.
Take a moment to consider the tricycle with me: this bike also has three wheels, but instead of it's occupant riding close to the ground, the cold, red, metal seat is raised high in the air just slightly below the red, metal handlebars.
Ok. So i'm perched on my tricycle and i start pumping the peddles as fast as my little feet will make them go. Down the curving sidewalk i race, gaining momentum with each second. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! The glee didn't last very long. Suddenly, i was heaved from my seat and flying precariously through the air, over the handlebars and landing directly on the soft flesh of my chin. AUGGHHHHH!!!! Actually, it was probably more like, WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! MOMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! You see, i hadn't done the physics or calculus or algebra or geometry or whatever math i should have done at the ripe old age of 3 to realize that me coming to a sudden stop from that speed when sitting so high up in the air probably wasn't a good idea. There were two hits: The tricycle hit the steps, and then my chin hit the steps.
I'm not sure exactly of the events that followed but there was a mixture of blood and tears, and somehow my mom made it to my side. I remember laying on my mom's lap in the car, rushing to the hospital. I remember seeing the big red stain on the white handkerchief that had been stopping the blood flow from my chin. I don't remember this, but my tells me that when she removed the handkerchief to re-situate it or check out the injury (not sure what she was doing), i quickly asked her to put it back because i was afraid my chin would fall off. I remember laying on the hospital bed and being held down while they placed a white cloth over my face with a hole that opened at my chin. I guess they figured it would have been less traumatizing for me to not see what was going on by forcing me to lay on that bed and have my face completely covered. I say the fact that i still remember being under that cloth and being terrified means they were wrong about not traumatizing me. BUT, the stitches made it in, and i lived to tell the story. :)
Besides those few vivid memories, i have one constant reminder of that day: a small, crescent-shaped scar right under my chin...if you look closely you'll see it.
7 comments:
I have vivid memories of that fateful day as well! The cloth with the hole in it was to create a sterile environment to prevent infection in the open wound. They chose NOT to put you in a straight-jacket as I told them you would cooperate and I would talk to you so that you wouldn't be afraid and try to get away. I did and you cried but didn't squirm. It was frightening for you (and for me!), but you were a very brave little girl.

Gee, "anonymous" sure sounds like your mom!!!
That's a lot of memories for being only 3. I was probably about the same age when I walked into a door and cut my forehead. Got stitches but I don't remember a thing!

You're right! Sorry I forgot to sign my comment! Melody has a terrific memory. Jonathan says she can remember being in the womb!

I remember the incendent vividly. My little precious speeding down that concrete walk with out a care in the world except fun! fun! fun!
I can imagine her saying WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! And then Bang! Little Miss Supergirl flying through the air over those handle bars of that tricycle without a cape.Instead of gently landing on her feet she slammed into the concrete on her chin with a screeching halt.YIKES! Super Mommy and Super Daddy to the rescue to save the day!:):)
Super Daddy

i was gonna say what your mom said.. no fair mommy cathi, *IM* the nurse!! the cloth with the hole was a sterile cloth, trying to keep as many germs away from the wound.
mel.. are you sure we didnt lead mirrored childhoods from across the east coast? ive already made a blog about our similiar relationships with our hero big brothers. i too, fell and slammed my face (forehead though, not chin) on solid rock (while playing "circus" and jumping from large rock to large rock while my mom played tennis nearby.. oops.. slipped on one and hit my head on the next one), got stitches, and remember laying under the cloth with the hole. and yes, you can still see the scar!
