Willow the husky was little more than a skeleton when she was rescued by the British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Animals last year. Too weak to stand on her own, the abandoned animal had nothing but rocks and dirt in her stomach, which rescuers believe she ate in a desperate attempt to fill her stomach.
Given a body assessment test, Willow ranked a mere one — the lowest score possible.
The owner who abandoned Willow — student Yu Lin of Simon Fraser University — now faces two counts of animal cruelty with a maximum penalty of two years in jail and a $75,000 fine.
"This wasn't a situation of finances, intelligence, and ability," said Marcie Moriarty of the B.C. SCPA. "It's just neglect and cruelty."
"He has clearly demonstrated a lack of ability to care for an animal," she added.
Since her rescue, Willow has put on 20 pounds, and is reportedly a cheerful animal who enjoys swimming and riding in cars. She's also an award winner: Willow nabbed the prize for animal courage at the 2015 B.C. SPCA awards.

Press freedom in Brazil is facing a "deadly crisis" following the murder of photojournalist Luis Antonio da Costa, the International Federation of Journalists has warned.
He is the fourth journalist to be murdered in the last two months.
There are increasing concerns that journalists are deliberately being targeted because of their work.
Da Costa, a reporter for the magazine Epoca, was shot on 23 July by a gunman in Sao Paulo. He had been reporting on mass protests demanding that the government of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva provide more public housing.
Aidan White, IFJ general secretary, said: "This is the latest in a murderous chain of events that is creating a deadly crisis for press freedom in Brazil. President Lula must lead the way in taking action to ensure the killers are found and brought to justice."
Other victims are Melyssa Martins Correia, cultural supplement editor of Oeste Noticias in Sao Paulo, Edgar Pereira de Oliveira, the owner of the weekly Boca do Povo in Campo Grande and Nicanor Linhares Batista, the owner Radio Vale do Jaguaribe in the northeastern state of Cear·.
"These killings have made Brazil one of the most dangerous places in the world for journalists," said White.
"It is time for the authorities to make it clear that they will not tolerate any further acts of violence or intimidation against reports and media."
The IFJ has also called for the Ukrainian government to investigate the attack against a journalist in Kiev.
Oleg Eltsov, editor-in-chief and investigative journalist for the internetbased Ukraine Criminality, was attacked as he left his apartment. The attackers assaulted him with an electric prodding device and a 10 kg metal tube, causing him to be hospitalized.

The anger in me burst tonight,
The hidden hilt's wrath shout what lies inside,
The past gone long and forgotten,
What lies is my hidden anger frightens.
Anger is the beast they say,,
Calm and composed, a gentleman's way,
But I ask the anger where dissipates to,
when the bleak thread breaks through.
Where does the flame hide beneath the flesh,
Rise up high, like a burning mesh.
Calm and patience gives their way,
The beast roars and the days are Grey.
Friends look foe,
And foes are dead,
Love gone, the life in shreds.
And the man known changed to gray.
And still I hide my blatant anger.
Rust to core, I stay calm and linger.
To those times of baseless betrayals.
the anger in me still there and shimmers.
Oh! How much I afraid to let it loose,
Afraid to shred the blood of the goose,
The blood I know would taste for the time,
But it'll be regret for a lifetime.
Lest I should be the way,
I am now and forever may,
For the well being of those who flames my anger,
Also for those who extinguish it later....
Lyf shud not be a journey to d grave in a well preserved n attractive body... but rather to rock n roll,skid sideways, chocolate in one hand n wine in other... body n mind thoroughly used ... totally whacked up n screaming... "wowwwwww WHAT A RIDE!!!"

- Did you know that dust bunnies have been around for centuries and are an untouched resource of easy-care pets for our busy lifestyles? They have lived quietly along side us and have already been domesticated!
- You probably have one or two that have adopted you, and you don't even know it!
- Dust Bunnies seek out spaces that receive little traffic, and are preferably dark, although some do become curious of the outside world.
- Dust Bunnies have their own paratrooper squads that one must be on the look-out for. However, since the dust bunnies do not have their own air force, the depend upon fan blades to transport them, so invasions usually take place during air circulation.
- There are also small legions of foot soldiers that parade across the floor when ventilation units are turned on.
- When heavy objects are moved, they will scurry for cover! This is the best time for capture!
- Dust bunnies are very prolific. There is no such thing as one dust bunny. Left to their own vices, dust bunnies will reproduce at alarming rates!

KGO staffers "embarrassed" by Morning Show "instigators"
*Aqui and Zouves prime suspects
*Nicco bitching
Fired them all, worse newscast ever! This just shows how bad is KGO management under you know who???ReplyDelete
I saw Natasha yesterday at the Grocery Outlet in Rohnert Park, holding 2 cans of canned ham and singing "Slap My Ham...oh, Slap My Ham...".Delete
The ND Tracey "Trixie" Watkowski might have to walk the plank. The same thing happened a few years ago. Then GM Joe Ahern was hustled out the building with a security guard. Mornings have always sucked at the might Circle 7.Delete
Donny & Marie about to lose it all? Gee, what a surprise!ReplyDelete
Yeah, but Reggie boy gets up at 230 am to make sure he's got the news everyone wants to hear. I guess it takes a bit to go through the Twitter feed, check out his Facebook posts and see what people have posted on Instagram. Modern journalism in action. Get rid of Natasha Fatale too. Oddly enough, the real Natasha Fatale would probably do a better job reporting on moose and squirrel.ReplyDelete
Right now, it's my favorite morning newscast. Aqui doesn't bug me like he does you. He's toned it down. Zouves is professional, but she does seem contrived. I used to think Castro was on an upward swing, but she has problems with anchor position. Zouves is much more polished. Nicco is the Senior among sophomores and acts like it. Hate to say it, but there's no BMOC at jobs. After watching these folks for a year, Alexis Smith is the one that stands out as the true pro among all of them.ReplyDelete
Is perpetual smiling (while on the air) written into their contracts? I couldn't do it. My resting face looks a little bit tired and a little bit disgusted, even when I feel fine.ReplyDelete
Embarassing anchors. They play off of one another and it seems that they think their infantile jibber jabber is engaging.ReplyDelete
I do not know why they keep passing over Matt Keller. He is by far the best one there. He has filled in with Natasha a few times and actually makes her a TINY BIT easier to take.ReplyDelete
Could be worse.
Sacto has a "Big Chucklefest" called Good Day Sac.
Cast is the old School Marm, Hip-cool guy, Screaming banshee, Laughing Hyena, wacky bow-tie guy and now they added the Bride of Chucky. OY!

I can affirm letting the Divine Presence into your life will bring some wonderful experiences. I spent this past weekend in Seattle at a seminar that, when I first read about it, I felt Spirit was asking me to attend. I followed that direction and sent in my registration. A few weeks later a situation developed that made me question whether I really wanted to attend this seminar and I seriously considered not going and even questioned Spirit about still going. I never felt Spirit was telling me I had to go, but They indicated that my original feeling about attending was still Their intent, so I decided to attend even though I was not at all sure why. I even had a back up plan in case I really felt uncomfortable in the first session. I could spend the rest of the weekend sightseeing and have a mini vacation! I am so glad I followed my initial direction; the seminar was wonderful. In fact, I really do not have words to describe the weekend and how different I feel. I met some delightful new people and feel rejuvenated with an even stronger connection with Spirit.

I have realized something about my playing patterns that might be a bit surprising to some, but it isn't to me now that I think about it. It concerns how I decide which poker site to play on when I feel like sitting down for a session.
It used to be that I would first find out whether any tournaments were scheduled that were hosted by the poker bloggers that I am acquainted with, or that I knew some of them would be playing in. I haven't been doing that very much recently, in large part because most of those games were played on FullTilt, and my bankroll there had dwindled to the point where it would take most of my balance just to buy in. Since I wasn't playing in those games, I would look for tourneys with buy-ins small enough for me to handle and have a decent chance to build up my roll.
I chose to play those micro games on FullTilt so I could try to win enough money to allow me to play in the blogger games again. Then, as mentioned in my last post, I did win a tourney that more than doubled my bankroll there. Still, it would take about one tenth of my balance to buy into a typical blogger tourney. So, I looked at my balances on other sites. I'm doing fine at Bodog, thanks to the cash and T$ that I won during the Blogger Series earlier this year. I have more money there than at any other site. PokerStars is another story. I haven't had a lot of success there over the course of 2008 so far, and my roll has fallen well below $100.00.
So where do I play most often these days? Why, at PokerStars, of course. Since I am comfortable at Bodog and no longer on life support at FullTilt, I feel the need to work on building up my stake where it is the smallest. I've done pretty well there over the past few weeks, playing in eight low buy-in SNGs since the middle of September and cashing in three of them. I barely eked out a $2.30 profit over that period, but I consider it a positive sign that I have done at least that well. I'm hoping that the trend continues or even improves so that I can pump things up at Stars. Wil Wheaton has said that he is thinking about hosting tournaments again, and I assume that they will be on PokerStars. I would like to be able to play in them, which means I need to have some funds in my account there. As big a hassle as depositing can be, I would certainly rather win to increase my roll rather than have to try to deposit. Who knows, I may try to deposit anyway, to give myself a cushion sooner than later, but we'll see.
Meanwhile, looking ahead to some live poker playing in the future, I am all booked for the WPBT Winter Classic in Las Vegas the weekend of December 12 - 14. American Airlines changed my original flight booking so that now I am scheduled to fly home on Monday morning at 6:00 AM instead of on the red-eye about five hours earlier. That sucks, because I did not book a hotel room for Sunday night, but I also didn't plan to stay up the entire night like I may have to now. I will need to look into seeing if there is any other option to fly home, that won't cost me big bucks in change fees.
I have not yet seen or heard much about what is planned for the Winter Classic, nor a list of people who are planning to go. If anyone out there is compiling such a list and wouldn't mind directing me to it, or letting me sign up for it, please leave me a comment or e-mail me. I'm looking forward to seeing many of my blogger pals in just a few months!

I was gonna buy a digital camcorder pretty soon, since my kid is just six weeks away and I wanna have an easy way to capture all those "first moments"…his first smile, his first step, his first tantrum…and be able to easily transfer it all to my machine and burn a DVD for posterity. I was just waiting for my choice in cameras to drop further in price. My mom was wondering what to get him for his big birthday, and I told her a "moment in time" video of her and Grandpa Joe at the Pitt Barn would be something timeless. So then SHE gets the bright idea to buy me a camcorder! Yes, it's so she can get regular DVDs of the kid growing up, since she lives over 1000 miles away. She wanted me to pick out what I would consider my "ultimate" camcorder, one that I would pine for. But I stuck with my first choice…a Canon Elura 100. Pretty cheap at $320 shipped.
She went overboard and also sent me a telephoto lens & wide-angle lens (plus step-up ring), five tapes, extra battery, carrying case, etc. Wow. So I've spent my weekend playing with it, going thru the manual, and found both positives and negatives about the camera, but mostly positives.
First, it does TRUE widescreen recording (none of the Panasonics do true 16×9…huh?). Second, it's pretty darn small…almost as small as my Nikon 995 digicam. At least twice on Saturday the wife thought I left it somewhere at Babies R Us, but it was in my pants pocket. Third, it's very intuitive and simplistic to use. The swing-out widescreen viewfinder is awesome (both picture and versatility), and it records in stereo, or with external mic. Of course, the video quality is vastly superior to those new, expensive DVD camcorders…and every review I've read says it has better playback quality than most MiniDV camcorders twice its price.
After playing with it, I highly recommend it. However, every camera has its limitations or design flaws. The biggest issue: NO DV CABLE INCLUDED…this is a special firewire cable, and this cable is necessary in order to transfer filmed footage to the computer. They include a USB cable, but that only works for transferring pictures stored on the SD card…which brainiac at Canon thought up THIS idea? Nobody is gonna take still pictures with a camcorder! No problem, I can get a cable…and once I get it, I can also use the camera as a "middle-man" for transferring my old VCR tapes onto my hard drive (OK, so this is actually a great positive in light of the inconvenience). The LCD video lights are positioned so that they are blocked if you use an add-on lens (especially bad design for indoor, which is when you primarily want to use the wide-angle lens plus have added illumination). You can't turn off stablization when in "easy" mode, and stablization will reduce the resolution when filming in widescreen (this is the only thing I would want to customize while in "easy" mode). So I'm gonna spend most of my recording time in "manual" mode.
In all, not much to complain about…seriously, I'm actually tickled fvcking pink. But I would HIGHLY recommend getting a wide-angle lens if you buy one. The telephoto is pretty great at 20x optical, which is twice that of most other cameras, but the telephoto lens boosts it significantly. And except for HD camcorders, you just can't beat the fact that it records in true 16×9 widescreen.

SA still needs to test two new stadiums ahead of World Cup
credit source with thanks: SA still needs to test two new stadiums ahead of World Cup.
World football governing body FIFA's South Africa head Ron Delmont said on Thursday that the next challenge in preparation for the FIFA World Cup was to test the readiness of the Soccer City stadium, in Soweto, and the Mbombela stadium, in Nelspruit.
He noted that not one of the stadiums had hosted a match before and that some concerns were previously raised regarding the perimeters and landscaping of the Soccer City stadium and the pitch at the Mbombela stadium.
Delmont told Engineering News Online that these issues were being closely monitored and said that recent reports indicated that progress had been made towards the resolution of these problems.
Nevertheless, Delmont said that the association was confident that everything would be ready before the tournament kicks-off on June 11.
He said that despite some "Afro-pessimism" and negative reporting, FIFA still believed that this was Africa's time to shine. "However, one lesson learned by FIFA around hosting the event in Africa, is that local business practices and socioeconomic issues should always be taken into consideration," he concluded.

Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Thoughts on Today's Verse…
Are you judgmental? Do you assume you can judge the intent of another person's heart? Are you critical and negative about the actions of others? Jesus wants us all to realize that we cannot know the motivations of someone's heart. When we are unfairly harsh or bitingly critical in our judgment of others, we are setting the standard by which God will judge us. I don't know about you, but I'm not willing to exchange God's grace for my unreasonable harshness. I'm going work harder at viewing others with mercy and grace.
My Prayer…
Dear God, please forgive me for being unfairly harsh and critical in my assessment of others. Thank you for being so rich and free with your mercy and grace lavished on me in Jesus. Please help me to be more gracious and merciful in the way I assess the intent and motivation of my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

As you may have noticed, the blog got a new look! I've been playing around with different blog sites/looks for awhile and hopefully have settled on this. No guarantees though, the look could change as often as our furniture 🙂 Don't worry, all the content from the old blog made it's way over here. The formatting may be a bit off, but perhaps I'll get to that eventually.
As I mentioned about the changing furniture… the blog isn't the only thing around here getting a new look:
We bought a new couch! And pretty much loooove the comfort and extra seating that goes along with it. (you can see my pillow cover there and some pillows waiting for a new cover, too!)
Our previous couch wasn't too old but the comfort was long gone. It was something that we bought quickly and cheaply thinking it had to be better than the cheap $100 couches we'd bought off craigslist in the past. WRONG! We learned it was worth spending a bit more for a higher quality piece.
We didn't spend more time hunting for this one but we had a better idea of what we wanted from our couch – leather, sectional, and reasonably priced. We found this one in the clearance section for about 50% off it's full retail price! We put the 10% down (fully refundable if we changed our mind), went home to measure, and read a few reviews on the brand (it's harder than you think to find reviews of furniture online). After agreeing it was what we wanted, we rented a U-Haul trailer and brought it home that same day- and haven't looked back since. Granted it's been less than a month since we bought it, I can already feel a difference in the quality and we can fit soo many more people in our living room.
And as a bonus- we were able to sell our old couch, chair, and ottoman on craigslist. Granted it was nowhere near what we paid for it, but we've come to expect that from CL and are just happy to have them gone and on to a home that will appreciate and enjoy them! They'll be here to pick them up on Tuesday. Let the hunt for some new chairs begin! (shhh… don't tell Mike)
Our bedroom layout went through some changes, too:
I didn't think to take a pic of the arrangement "before" but picture the bed with the head to the left in this screen shot. The way doors and windows line up in this room there really is no great way to arrange the furniture, so before it was sort of floating in the middle of the room (the closet doors are too the left and centered on the wall and the bathroom doors are to the right and centered on the wall with no room on either side of the doors for the bed). The way we have it now seems to make the room feel HUGE, but our bed frame and headboard covers most of the window, so right now we are without it. Our plan is to just live with this layout for awhile and see how we like it. This is the 3rd time rearranging so I'm not willing to rush into new furniture or commit to this in any way for the long haul. Only time will tell how long it'll last!
Of course there's still plenty left to do in there too- you can't tell from this angle but half the room (and half the upstairs) is still without baseboards and ALL of it needs to be puttied, sanded, and painted… ick. When will that project end already?!? Hopefully 2012 will be the year!
We also gave our entryway windows some clothes:
It makes the room look so much more finished- and since that window does give a partial view of our living room, it's nice to be able to close those at night.
We're still working on plans for the house for 2012. At the rate we're going, we probably wont get them finalized until March… but that'll give us some time to build up our house projects funds again. The kitchen sort of depleted that! That means we may not have too much to blog about for awhile… but we are babysitting our nephew for the first time this upcoming weekend. I am sure we will have pictures to share for that! See you then. 🙂

Commodore Founder Jack Tramiel Dies at 83
Jack Tramiel. the man behind the best-selling personal computer of all time, passed away on Sunday, surrounded by his family. He was 83 years old.
Tramiel is widely known as the pioneer behind the Commodore 64 personal computer which launched back in the 1980s. But before founding Commodore International, he bought a repair shop in the Bronx and named it Commodore Portable Typewriter in 1953 while working as a New York City taxi driver. He fixed office machinery until 1955 when he signed a deal with a Czechoslovak company to assemble and sell their typewriters in North America.
Eventually his company moved away from the saturated typewriter market and entered the adding machine sector. That too quickly became saturated, so Commodore jumped into the digital calculator business instead. That didn't pan out for very long either thanks to Texas Instruments, so Commodore thus purchased MOS Technology, Inc., an IC design and semiconductor manufacturer. This purchase led to the monochrome Commodore PET computer followed by the VIC20 and the famous Commodore 64.
Tramiel resigned from Commodore in 1984 and formed Tramel Technology Ltd shortly thereafter to create and sell the next-generation personal computer. But instead of making new PCs, his company purchased the consumer division of Atari Inc from Warner Communications which was heavily wounded by the Video Game Crash of 1983. Tramel Technology thus renamed itself as Atari Corporation.
By the end of the 1980s, Tramiel stepped down from Atari's everyday operations, naming his son as president and CEO. But in 1995 his son suffered a heart attack, requiring Tramiel to return. He then sold the company to disk drive manufacturer Jugi Tandon Storage in a reverse merger deal in 1996. The new company was named JTS Corporation, and Tramiel joined the JTS board.
Tramiel was originally from Poland, born in 1928 to a Jewish family living in the war-torn turmoil of World War II. After the German invasion of Poland in 1939, his family was moved to the Jewish ghetto in Łódź, then to the Auschwitz concentration camp. Eventually he and his father were sent to the labor camp Ahlem near Hanover. Tramiel was rescued in April 1945 by the 84th Infantry Division, but his father didn't make it out of the camp alive thanks to a bout of Typhus (although Tramiel believed the man died from an injection of gasoline).
Two years after his rescue, Tramiel emigrated to the United States in November, 1947. He joined the Army shortly thereafter and learned how to repair office equipment, including typewriters.
"Jack Tramiel was an immense influence in the consumer electronics and computing industries. A name once uttered in the same vein as Steve Jobs is today, his journey from concentration camp survivor to captain of industry is the stuff of legends," says writer Martin Goldberg who is working on a book about the Atari brand and the early days of video games and computing.
"His legacy are the generations upon generations of computer scientists, engineers, and gamers who had their first exposure to high technology because of his affordable computers – 'for the masses and not the classes,'" he added, quoting Tramiel's famous phrase from the Commodore 64 era.
Tramiel is survived by his wife Helen, their three sons, Gary, Sam and Leonard, and their extended families.
1928 was post WWI.
Why not re-read the article and browse Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWI
In 1928 WWII hadn't started yet, people were still living in the aftermath of WWI.
I met him a long time ago as well. Nice guy. I was really bummed that they bought the Amiga and brought it into Commodore though. Commodore had a lot of good points, but marketing wasn't one of them. I doubt they could sell free beer at a Superbowl.
know your history,(this was around the time of the original Apple Inc. before NeXT computer, Pixar, and the mac) Apple was competing with the Commodore PET. while the insides of the Commodore PET IMO seemed to be more Business oriented... The Apple II computer was alot better at game playing... it was color... My brother still has that Commodore PET 4016 in Storage lol. and an apple II clone.
my guess is if the video game crash of 83 had not happened Apple would've made a better gaming computer(to complete with the Commodore 64) maybe even a console and we would have better gaming machines 25 years earlier. IMAO.

Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. Psalms 55:22
"Cast they burden upon the Lord, and He will sustain thee"—burden and all. "Thee" is the greatest burden that thou hast! All other burdens are but slight, but this is a crushing burden, But when we come to the Lord with our burden, He just lifts up His child, burden and all, and bears him all the way home.
Charles A. Fox
He lays his affairs and himself on God, and so hath no pressing care; no care but the care of love, how to please, how to honor his Lord. And in this, too, he depends on Him , both for skill and strength; and , touching the success of things, he leaves that as none of his to be burdened with, casts it on God, and since He careth for it, they need not both care, His care is sufficient. Hence springs peace, inconceivable peace.
Robert Leighton
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 1Peter 5:7

Christine Michael ran for 97 yards and Stephen Williams snatched a ball from cornerback Loyce Means in the end zone for a 42-yard touchdown catch in the Seattle Seahawks' 17-10 preseason victory over the Green Bay Packers on Friday night.
Michael added a 43-yard touchdown run in the third quarter for the Seahawks (3-0), who stayed unbeaten but didn't look like the juggernaut that steamrolled over Denver and San Diego the previous two weeks.
Vince Young, vying for the backup quarterback job behind Aaron Rodgers, was 6-of-7 passing for 41 yards and the only touchdown -- a 1-yard pass to Jonathan Amosa -- on the night for Green Bay (1-2).
Rodgers played one series, going 4 of 7 for 41 yards. Seahawks starter Russell Wilson, returning to the state where he played in college, was 11 of 17 for 126 yards and two interceptions.

I wish you all the best in this new year, and have a good year ahead!
and guys, I want to tell you the things I got for this Christmas. I don't get so many gifts from Christmas but I love all of them and all of them came from my loved ones. these are my christmas presents:
- Love Etc body lotion by The Body Shop and Vaseline Cocoa Glow body lotion from my aunt
- Island Margarita Pocketbac by Bath and Body Works from my aunt [I also got the holder but can't find the photo here] & Paris Amour PocketBac by Bath and Body Works from my dad
- One Direction backpack [bought it online] from my mom
and a Milk Teddy wallet & money from my grandpa :)
Label: backpack, bath and body works, body lotion, christmas, hand gel, holder, one direction, pocketbac, presents, the body shop, vaseline, wallet, winter break
- Find your super-deep part. Try lining it up with the very outside of your brow first. If that feels like it's just too much, go a little closer in and line up with the arch of your brow.This could potentially feel a little uncomfortable at first if you're not used parting so far over. If you really hate having that deep side part or if your hair just won't cooperate for some reason, try doing what I did on Lucy Hale below– see how I went on a diagonal? It starts a little closer to the center and then diagonally goes into a heavier part. This way you get all the weight of the hair on one side but it doesn't feel overly swooped. Don't be afraid to take a blowdryer to it to get it to behave!
- Use the finer side of a comb + some strong holding hairspray to make the side tight as you see in photo 2. Don't over spray, you just want the hair close the head and the fly-aways to stay down. If you really wanted to go for a sleek side, you could gel it and give it that "shaved side" appearance which feels equally edgy + girly!
- Now split the hair diagonally from the back of the part to the opposite corner of your neck. Start the braid behind your ear and go down and around as you see in photo 3. Use a tiny clear elastic to secure the braid on the opposite side of your neck. This elastic will be hidden underneath the other side with all the hair.
- That's it! Now you're free to create whatever texture you want on the heavier side– smooth waves, messy waves, curl, straight, anything you like. Personally I like the messy waves with a little volume (like you see in the very top photo) but you really can do this using any natural texture.

I'm going to stay in the people's house. my teacher told me that the weather is going to be very low, around 0 Celcius in midnight and 10 Celcius in day. I was like, freaking out because I live in Jakarta, with a hot weather. they told me to brought jackets, blankets, socks, and etc. they also said that the water is going to be extremely cold! :o I'm very afraid because that means.. I'm not going to take a shower twice a day. well, thank God electricity is already available there. I'll be going from Oct 9th until Oct 14th. that's a long time. and the journey from Jakarta to Dieng is 15 hours.... :):) although I'm a bit scared, I'm also excited too! and these are the things that I'm going to bring along:

This might seem pretty obvious to some people, but you'd be surprised at how many lovely ladies don't clean out their hair brushes. Too often I walk into a friend's bathroom, see a brush full of hair and I can't help myself, so I clean it out. Within the next couple days I usually hear about how much it changed the way their hair looks. It may not seem like a big deal but hair brushes are total traps! Dust, conditioner, oil, germs, even dust mites can be in your dirty hair brush, which is DISGUSTING. For example: if you wash, brush and blowdry your hair on a Monday and then "re-finish" it on Tuesday with the same brush, the oils and dirt from all day Monday will be sitting in that brush. Pile those up for a couple weeks, months… years? Ew. Personally, I recommend you clean out your brush once every week or two. It takes a couple minutes! It's not something we really think about but you should try to become conscious of the hair piling up in your brush. Cleaning out your round brushes will allow you to get SO much more tension which will lead to smoothness and shine. Here's how I like to clean out my brushes at home:
- Grab any brush that's gathered a visible amount of hair. Here I'm showing you how to clean out a flat (paddle) brush but this can be done exactly the same on a round brush.
- In the hair world, we have tools to clean out brushes, but when I'm at home I grab a pen or pencil and slide it under the hair in the brush. Now pull up until the hair starts to loosen. (You do this so you don't end up cutting your bristles with the next step!)
- Next, go in with your scissors and cut straight down the middle as seen above. TIP: If you're cleaning out a round brush, flip it over and do the same on the opposite side.
- Now "peel" the hair open and remove. You can go back in with your pen or pencil to loosen up any more tight spots.
- Discard that gorgeous hairball.
- I like to shampoo my brushes each time I clean out the hair. To do that, just fill up the sink with warm water and add a tablespoon of cleansing/clarifying shampoo. Wash the brush + bristles thoroughly, rinse well, and let it dry (or blow it dry).

Following is a speech by the Secretary for Health and Welfare,Dr E K Yeoh, at the 37th Annual General Meeting of the Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society (December 15):
Chairman and Members of the Society,
Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is my pleasure to address this Annual General Meeting of the Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society.
Cancer is the number one major killer in Hong Kong, accounting for one-third of all deaths or a death toll of over 10 000 a year. There are about 19 000 new cancer cases each year. Although after discounting the factors of population increase and ageing population, the age-standardised incidence rate and mortality rate are declining in recent years, there is no room for complacency. Hong Kong's cancer incidence rates are high by Asian standards. And cancer is still one of, if not, the most dreaded diseases by all.
Combating cancer has been a priority item on our health agenda. The Hospital Authority has consolidated its network of clinical oncology service through the development and implementation of clinical guidelines and treatment protocols for common types of cancer in its five oncology centres. The Department of Health has extended the coverage of its Women Health Service to help detect the early signs of breast and cervical cancers. Our anti-smoking campaign has gathered momentum and received most encouraging community support. As at August 2000, 563 companies have pledged support to implement a smoke-free policy in their workplace.
Further plans to combat cancer are in the pipeline. We announced in this year's Policy Address our plan to enhance our anti-smoking efforts by setting up a Tobacco Control Office in the Department of Health in the coming year and launching a package of publicity and educational programmes to discourage smoking. We shall, in collaboration with health care providers in the public and private sector, launch a territory-wide cervical screening programme for women next year. To strengthen our knowledge base and capability in combating cancer, we shall establish a Cancer Co-ordinating Committee next year, with a view to developing an evidence-based long term preventive strategy for reducing cancer morbidity and mortality.
I am pleased to say that Government is not alone in the fight against the scourge of cancer. We are fortunate to have the support of voluntary associations such as the Hong Kong Anti-Cancer Society as our strategic partners. The Society plays a key role in promoting proactive prevention, early detection and effective treatment of cancer as well as hospice care services. Through its Cancer Research Laboratory, the Society has contributed a lot to the development of evidence-based clinical practices for treating various kinds of cancer patients. The development of genetic diagnostic test for nasopharyngeal and bronchial cancers, successful implementation of a novel scanning computer system for cancer cells, and identification of genetic and environmental risk factors for lung cancer are but a few examples. On cancer education, the Society has initiated various health promotion programmes to educate the public on the importance of healthy living and regular check-ups in reducing the risk of developing cancer. It also conducts regular visits to schools, community centres and workplaces to deliver the anti-cancer message to our young people.
I would be remiss if I do not mention the important role of the individual in cancer prevention. With the wealth of new epidemiologic, biologic and genetic information and tools, we are in a much better position to detect, treat and ultimately prevent cancer. We now know that the cause of many cancers is related to the lifestyle of an individual. For instance, tobacco consumption has proven to be causally associated with cancer in many bodily organs. Eating habits, particularly the consumption of animal fats, have also been identified as another major risk factor for cancer. A healthy life style is a key preventive measure. Remember the pursuit of good health starts with the individual.
Finally, I would like to convey my heartfelt gratitude to the Society for its remarkable achievements and invaluable contributions over the past 37 years, and I look forward to your continued support in the coming years.
Thank you.
END/Friday, December 15, 2000

FBI Director: We Have No Evidence Against 9-11 "Hijackers"
Jim Condit Jr.
May 18, 2002 03:51 PDT
May 17, 2002 NA (Network America) e-wire
FBI Director: We Have No Evidence Against 9-11 "Hijackers"
Wwwweeeeeeelllllllll . . . in the last two days the controlled 5 Big TV
Networks and the controlled several Big Radio Networks and the
controlled Big City Daily Papers -- have had to make a BIG CONCESSION to
the independent press (that's all of us).
The official cover story for 9-11 is perceived by the Ruling Elite as in
danger of falling apart. Carol Valentine, Michael Hoffman, Christopher
Bollyn, L.T. Patterson – and a host of others – as well as all of you
who spread such independent, investigative information around the
internet and the country – can take a bow. Now let's turn the heat up.
Everyone into the battle!
Suddenly -- ALL the Big Media outlets are obsessing on vague
intra-governmental or intelligence agency memos which, we are told, were
given to the Bush administration before, and leading up to, – the 9-11
terror attacks.
(Bear with this background – and we will crescendo with the April 19,
2002 speech of the FBI Director given in San Francisco and reported the
next day in the Los Angeles Times.)
What has caused the sudden, coordinated, well-orchestrated, unanimous
Big Media concern over these inconsequential clues? These
inconsequential clues amount to: there may be a hi-jacking by terrorists
at some time in the future, somewhere in the world. . . . No fair person
could feel that the vague warnings being exuded over in the Big Press
could possibly be classified as specific foreknowledge of anything.
So what is happening? Why the sudden, well orchestrated fuss?
Maybe the general buzz that there is more to 9-11 than meets the eye is
reaching critical mass. Maybe some of the evidence disproving a part of
the official cover story for 9-11 has reached a significant faction. And
maybe there is a powerful outrage making itself felt from that
significant faction – maybe from the NY Firefighters, maybe from a
patriotic faction of the military, maybe from somewhere else. In any
case, something has caused the Judeo-Masonic Big Media to try and get
control of the story again by directing public attention to these
inconsequential, vague, meandering, pre-9-11 warnings.
The Big Media-directed diversion is supposed to concede what a
significant portion of the public already suspects – that there is MORE
THAN MEETS THE EYE TO THE 9-11 STORY. And, furthermore, the Big Media
says, here it is. Here's the rest of the story: Bush had these several
vague warnings that a terrorist strike might be imminent, and he did
In other words, admit to a very little something, in order to try and
put the natives back to sleep – and continue the Big Cover-up.
The EFFECT of the last two days publicity about vague foreknowledge by
W. Bush and his administration – is to redirect the public back to the
"it's simple -- those darn Muslims did it" cover story – and away from
the BIG HOLES in that Cover Story – such as the preponderance of the
evidence which points to the Judeo-Masonic Ruling Elite in New York,
Washington D.C., and Tel Aviv – who had both the MEANS and the
tremendous MOTIVE to coordinate the 9-11 terror attacks – in order to
launch America into the middle east for a war against Israeli's enemies,
the Muslims and Arabs, and to begin in earnest to dismantle the
Constitution. (Clincher: Only the Judeo-Masonic Ruling Elite could
cause America's pervasive air defenses to stand down until the 9-11
Pageant was over – the Muslims couldn't do that. And only their Big TV
Networks could so restrict coverage of all the facts as has been done –
the Muslims couldn't do that.)
THERE IS ANOTHER aspect to this sudden "revelation of the method" by the
Big News Media. For that you have to read the whole thing in context by
the incomparable "twilight language" analyst Michael A. Hoffman at:
Now -- to further set the context for the significance of the current
FBI Director's April 19 admission that the FBI has found NO EVIDENCE –
no paper trail -- to tie the 19 FBI-accused Hijackers with the 9-11
event – let's look at examples of the startling shift of emphasis about
9-11 which we've seen in the Big Media these last two days.
Item: On WLW radio (700 AM) today at about 1:30 PM, talk show host Bill
Cunningham (winner of the Marconi award for large market radio
personality for 2001) stated he had 7 different governmental documents
before him dated between 1992 and 1999 warning that there might be a
hijacking during which planes would be run into key buildings in the US.
Cunningham cited Drudge, Newsmax, and World Net Daily as providing these
Item: Shortly before this, Cunningham – shaken by the numerous, if
vague, warnings that went unheeded -- played news reports from the day
of 9-11 shortly before and after the Twin Towers collapsed. These TV
spots featured interviews with firefighters talking about the explosions
up and down the Twin Tower buildings which preceded the collapse. Some
of these interviews are INTERRUPTED by the explosions, as attested to by
the person being interviewed.
Cunningham also had on Bill Boshears (WLW's weekend night guy who does a
show called 'Scizone') to comment on these newsclips – which Boshears
had brought to his audience during interviews he has done on the last
few weekends with a David Wegener, the head of Hope For America
David Wegener has done a yeoman's job in pulling together numerous news
clips from the day of 9-11 – and other key events – before the official
spin could be "fixed" in the public mind.
You can get his simple mailing about what videos he has available by
calling 1-800-959-1991 – and after listening to a message, leave your
mailing information.
In case you don't want to wait -- the tapes that look like a "must" from
the Wegener collection --- because of the real time video news clips
included from the first moments of key events are:
· A Great Deception – (3 ˝ hours) which includes 1 hour of video clips
- $18;
· Amazing Clips Sampler (15 min), meant for introducing people to news
control and censorship, ten shocking video clips -- $5;
· Amazing Clips, Parts 1, 2, 3 – 3 tape set, 55 video clips, -- $20;
If you want to act now, send the cost of the videos you want from the
above, plus $6 for shipping and handling, to: Hope for America
Ministries, PO Box 11960 Costa Mesa, California 92627.
Even the audio portion alone -- of some of the clips, as played on WLW
radio on the Bill Boshears show, -- proved beyond doubt that people on
the scene AND newscasters covering the events witnessed clear explosions
at many different floor levels in the World Trade Tower buildings
shortly before the collapse – and long after the planes had hit. This
would indicate that the Twin Towers collapse was NOT the result of the
plane hits alone. (There was a third building which collapsed in the
Manhattan world trade center complex, which was not hit by a plane – but
this will be covered in a soon-to-be e-wire; it has been dropped from
the official 9-11 story, as has been the attack on the White House
Annex, the Old Executive Building, shown in flames on the morning of
9-11 in a live report on ABC, according to French author Thierry
Item: This concession by the Big Media, is unleashing all kinds of
information as various factions not clued in to the 9-11 treachery –
angle for political position and advantage. Rep. Charles Rangel (Dem –
NY), on Hannity & Colmes tonight – asks how W. Bush so immediately
blamed Osama Bin Laden after the 9-11 plane attacks – if the attacks
were a total surprise. (This is a good question, but not in the way
Rangel thinks. He was thinking it proved Bush had a lot of warning that
Bin Laden was "on the move", but kept it to himself. The real import of
the question involves the indication that a "Lee Harvey Oswald" type
cover story had been cooked up for CIA-acquantance and designated fall
guy Bin Laden -- in advance of the remote control plane attacks on the
World Trade Towers.
Remote control plane attacks? Well, veteran readers know that we at
Network America insist that the overwhelming preponderance of the
evidence points to remote control plane attacks against the World Trade
Towers. (Doubters see public-action.com, "9-11 No Suicide Pilots",
"NORAD Part 1: Inside Job", "NORAD Part 2: Dumb Blondes"; "Flight of the
Bumble Planes")
And now comes a book in France that has sold over 100,000 copies. From
Criminal Politics, back page, April 2002 issue:
"And then there is the new book, published in France, that has created a
firestorm over charges that the events of 9-11 were well known to the
U.S. authorities, and they assisted in setting it up and created
conditions to allow it to happen and actually guided the planes into the
World Trade Center with electronic devices . . . The book was reviewed
by the Washington Post and on the CNN morning show with Paul Zahn. The
title of the book is "The Dreadful Imposture" by a well known left wing
author and activist, Thierry Meyssan.
"This book has sold over 100,000 copies – and became, in recent weeks,
the country's number one non-fiction best seller. Thierry claims that
9-11 was a state-sponsored action against the American people by its own
gov't. The Pentagon, he says, was not struck by a plane but by a truck
bomb planted by rogue U.S. elements. [He says] Osama Bin Laden is a CIA
stooge and suggests that 9-11 was a culmination of a long planned
military coup to justify a dramatic increase in defense spending and the
invasion of Afghanistan and other countries in the Middle East to defend
Israel . . . He claims that the U.S, planted beacons in the World Trade
Center to help the other two planes reach their target and planted
explosives at the base of the towers to ensure their collapse . . .
WOW!" (End of quote from L.T. Patterson's Criminal Politics).
Hey! That invasion of Afghanistan was based on real solid evidence tying
the 19 accused mostly Saudi Hijackers through Al Qaeda to the 9-11
terror attacks – wasn't it??????? . . . WASN'T IT??????? . . . Please
tell me it was . . . . ----- Well, --
The answer is "no." Who says? Why, the current Director of the FBI,
Robert Mueller, says, that's who.
FBI Director Robert Mueller's whole speech in real audio can be found
Let's hear from Michael Collins Piper in the May 20, 2002 edition of the
American Free Press (successor to the Spotlight, closed down due to a
judge's decision):
"In an April 19 speech delivered to the Commonwealth Club in San
Francisco, Mueller said that the purported hijackers, in his words,
'left no paper trail.' The FBI Director stated flatly: 'In our
investigation, we have not uncovered a single piece of paper – either
here in the United States or in the treasure trove of information that
has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewhere – that mentioned any aspect
of the September 11 plot.'
"In describing Mueller's evidence fiasco, Los Angeles Times reporters
Erich Lichtblau and Josh Meyer, whose article was reprinted in The
Washington Post on April 30, note that: 'Law enforcement officials say
that while they have been able to reconstruct the movements of the
hijackers before the attacks --- all legal except for a few speeding
tickets – they have found no evidence of their actual plotting.'
"The Times reporters acknowledge that Mueller's comments 'offer the
FBI's most comprehensive and detailed assessment to date of its
investigation, remarkable as much for what investigators have not found
as for what they have.'
"The FBI director explained away the absence of evidence by making the
disingenuous assertion that the hijackers used 'meticulous planning,
extraordinary secrecy and extensive knowledge of how America works" to
conceal their scheme.
"Mueller made this claim despite the fact that in the immediate wake of
the September 11 attacks, a variety of US officials and media sources
speciously announced almost instantaneously that there was firm evidence
not only that these 19 Muslim men were agents of Osama Bin Laden's al
Qaeda network but that they were indeed the individuals who hijacked the
doomed flights of September 11.
"Mueller seems to forget that early government and media reports loudly
hyped 'discoveries' – letters and other documents – in the luggage and
personal belongings of the presumed hijackers which 'proved' that they
were on a 'mission for Allah', etc. etc. etc."
End of quote from Michael Collins Piper in the American Free Press.
(And don't forget that about two weeks after the 9-11 terror attacks --
Attorney General John Ashcroft absurdly and pompously announced that
they had found an INTACT passport of one of the Muslim hijackers 4
blocks from the collapsed Twin Towers – AND – that they had found a
letter at each of the crash sites in Pennsylvania AND in Washington
D.C., written in Arabic by one of the hijackers in each case, and tying
them all together in a conspiracy to pull off the diverse and
coordinated terror attacks. Of course, all of these things were so
absurd, your writer couldn't believe he was hearing such claims over
national radio. HOWEVER, Ashcroft's handlers must know that those paying
attention will see through these obvious lies. That's irrelevant to
them. The purpose is to use their airtight control of our airwaves to
CREATE AN IMPRESSION on the general, casually observing public – that
they "have" some "proof". . . . One internet humorist said that, since
the FBI and Ashcroft were SIMULTANEOUSLY claiming that all four
'indestructible' black boxes were destroyed, that the FBI should drop
everything they were doing and invest in that paper the Muslim hijackers
were using!)
So, now that the FBI Director has admitted that after 7 months of
investigation – his agency has NO EVIDENCE to tie the accused 19 Muslims
to the 9-11 terror attacks. Let's recall some other things we don't
Let's turn to internet analyst Sir Peter Bunnell for a summary of some
other things we DO NOT KNOW:
"Tapes: Video and Voice.
"Air Traffic Controller tapes talking to the doomed aircraft are all
"Taped conversation presented about pilot keying his mike and angry
voices of hijackers in background presented on national TV finally
admitted by FBI to be a fake.
"All Surveillance videotapes from airport ticket counters, lounge,
boarding areas etc., that the doomed airliners departed from are all
mysteriously missing. (With the exception of the one tape shown on
national TV of Atta and Aomlari at a security checkpoint in Portland
Maine)" [Editor: What date was that video taken on? No way to know, it
proves nothing about 9-11."]
End of quote from Sir Peter Bunnell.
Remember also, that none of the alleged "cell phone" calls have ever
been heard by the public. NOTE WELL: A new article has been forwarded to
me which we will carry in full as a separate e-wire, -- about the fact
that MIT can now simulate voices and videos of people speaking words
"put in their mouths" by the editors – so as to fool audiences. I
believe the "cell phone" calls are the Achilles' heel of the 9-11 cover
story, if anyone can get enough momentum to properly investigate them.
Remember that Ashcroft said, when it was claimed by people in the Arab
world that 5 of the accused, and supposedly dead, 9-11 hijackers were
still alive – that (paraphrasing Aschcroft) "we may never know the true
identity of the hijackers."
Soooooooooo . . . the question of the day is NOT "what did Bush know and
when did he know it?" Rather, . . .
The question of the day is: "What do you know, and WHEN did you first
know it???"
Answer: If you take away the pre-arranged official cover story pushed by
all five Big TV Networks, I contend that you and I know very little.
We do not know if the planes were empty or full of passengers as they
crashed into the Twin Towers in NYC, likewise we do not know if the
planes which crashed into the World Trade Towers were the ones that left
Boston and the other airport – of if they were drone planes made up to
look like the original planes.
We do not know if the planes were run into the World Trade Towers by
humans who had hijacked the plane, or by remote control technology –
although the overwhelming preponderance of the evidence points to the
remote control technology.
We do not know if there were any Muslim hijackers on board, even if
there were some passengers. We do not know if the 19 Muslim "hijackers"
were along for the remote controlled ride – of if they were ushered and
shepherded into the US by CIA/Mossad handlers – and then each killed in
some undisclosed location before the fateful planes took off on
September 11, 2001.
We do not know what was on the destroyed black boxes from any of the
planes (as one internet humorist quipped, 'That's why they call them
We do not know what serious Congressional investigations have uncovered
– because there have been none!
What we do know ----
What we do know NOW is that on April 19, 2002, in a speech given in San
Francisco, FBI Director Robert Mueller stated that, after 7 months of
investigation, the FBI had no evidence -- and no paper trail -- tying
the accused 19 hijackers to the 9-11 terror attacks.

Innovation and Institutional Embeddedness of Multinational Companies (New Horizons in International Business Series)By: Martin Heidenreich (editor)Hardback
Up to 2 WeeksUsually despatched within 2 weeks
DescriptionMultinational companies are crucial actors in a global knowledge-based economy, combining the advantages of global and locally coordinated production and innovation strategies with specific regional and national factors. This book questions how MNCs can best exploit institutionally embedded knowledge, explores the utilization of external institutionally embedded knowledge in corporate innovation processes, and addresses the challenges of embeddedness. The expert contributors draw on managerial, economic, geographic and sociological perspectives to explore the essential roles of regional and national knowledge infrastructures and the cultural and political environment of MNCs. They build upon, update, and extend the discussion on the regional and national embeddedness of MNCs with new country case studies and comparative analyses, focussing on the relationship between innovation in companies and regional studies. Significantly, the book also establishes a link between two important debates that have hitherto been largely disconnected: Regional studies and international business studies separately address issues that fall within the scope of the book, but do not provide an integrated analysis of the embeddedness of MNCs. This pathbreaking book goes some way to fill this gap in the literature and as such, will prove invaluable to academics, R&D managers, regional policy makers and students with an interest in international business, business economics, regional studies and organization studies.

A room full of tiny miracles.
Have you ever wondered what happens after you have a baby?
They take the baby, but where does it go?
What are they doing with it?
When will it come back??
I just did my {2 day} clinical rotation through the Newborn Nursery.
In no way does that make me super knowledgeable on what happens in the nursery, but I will tell you what the days were like for me.
On the first day, I got the first baby that came through the nursery doors.
They {the nurse/pediatrician} brought the baby into the nursery followed closely by dad.
Immediately, baby was weighed and measured.
Then, baby was brought to the warmer to be assessed.
Let me tell you, we check that baby out from head to toe!!
Fontanelles, facial symmetry, fingers/toes, abdomen, umbilical cord, genitals, the way they lay, their skin, their reflexes, range of motion in limbs, equal limbs... you get the picture, everything.
I'm learning all this new stuff about babies with the dad standing over my shoulder.
Hooray for dad wanting to be all involved, boo for the sheer awkwardness of being watched while learning new stuff.
Baby's first set of vital signs were taken: temperature, heart rate, respirations, oxygen saturation...
I put the temperature monitor on baby's belly with the gold heart sticker on it for continuous temp and pulse monitoring. {that's what the gold heart sticker is - a temp probe is underneath it}
I wrapped the pulse monitor around baby's itty bitty hand. {SOOOO tiny.}
Gave the baby their 1st medicines: Erythromycin ointment in eyes, Vitamin K shot to vastus lateralis {since baby's gut is sterile and has no bacteria that is needed to make crucial clotting factors} and the Hepatitis B vaccine {1st in a set of 3} in the other vastus lateralis {teeny tiny thigh muscles}.
Baby cried for a minute then was quiet again. {still hurt my heart to give that itty bitty those injections}
OH, and did I mention that dad was still hovering nearby??
MmmmHmmm but it was all good!
We got through it.
I got baby's first foot prints for mom and dad.
After the initial set of vitals, they are monitored every 30 minutes and recorded to keep up with/maintain baby's progress.
You gotta stay on top of these!!
It's kind of a big deal.
What, with this new little life and all.
Then, I guess dad left to go hang out with mom.
Baby was having a bit of trouble regulating her body temperature.
We kept her under the warming unit until she was an appropriate temperature, then it was time for baby's first bath!!
-- I put my goggles ON --
{no one wants someone else's amniotic fluid to fly in their eyes}
Baby was REALLY dirty.
We took baby to the sink, where there were towels and blankets layed out.
Under continuous warm, running water, I got a sponge and wiped off baby's face.
Then, with soap on the sponge, I washed that little body till it was clean and free of birth yuck stuff.
She looked like a completely different baby after that!!
Took more vital signs.
Charted it all in the computer.
Did a Ballard Score -- those newborn nurses can do this thing So Fast!!
I struggled through it.
Took more vital signs.
Then, baby is supposed to eat something by the end of the 1st 4 hours of life.
I took my swaddled, precious little miracle down the hall to mom and dad and made the first introduction to mom {since she had a c-section and they whisked baby away right after - this happened with my Hailee's birth too}.
What an experience.
What an absolute honor it was to get this baby ready to meet her momma.
To follow her little body through the process of breathing, weighing//measuring, first bath, first diaper change, first feeding, figuring out HOW to suckle, eat, and breathe at the same time...
It all happens so fast.
In between caring for "my baby" {totally what we called our itty bitty patients}, I helped feed, change, cuddle, swaddle, and watch over other little babies in the nursery.
I used an itty bitty little neonatal stethoscope to listen to the fast little heart beats.
There were 12 babies born on the 1st day.
I think there might have been a full moon or something ;)
Ok, the worst part of my newborn nursery experience was this:
SINCE the flu is spreading like wildfire through our state, we had to wear face masks the entire time we were with the babies.
I did not have a good experience with face masks with my Operating Room rotation - they make me more claustrophobic than anything else in this world.
My overall feeling - I wouldn't want to work in the Newborn Nursery.
Because if that was the only thing I did, Babies would be the only thing I'd know.
I'm still leaning toward working on a medical - surgical floor in a hospital.
That's your general, random illnesses.
That is where I would get more and more experience in ALL of my newly acquired nursing skills: catheters, IV's, NG/OG tube insertion, Peg tubes, IV drips, dressing changes/wound care, PICC line care, planning care for patients, teaching... so much stuff that I wouldn't be doing if I worked in the Newborn Nursery.
I'm glad I got to go through that rotation!
I have yet to do my Labor-and-Delivery and Postpartum rotations.
THAT could be a whole nother story...
We'll just have to see!!
{**I did not take any of these pictures while in the nursery, these are from searching google**}
I don't really like country music, but this song makes me think of all those babies.

|Sessegnon - Benin
As much as I think Sessegnon is a fantastic player, and a key one for Sunderland, I fail to see where he fits in next season. With Bruce talking about signing a big target man to play alongside Gyan, there'll be no need for an attacking midfielder to play in behind. You could also play him on the wing, and he did so early on in his Sunderland career, but it wasn't until he was moved into a more central, free-roaming role that he really excelled, finishing the season with a respectable 3 goals in 13 appearances. I don't think the wing suits his style of football, although with a run of games there, he could prove me wrong.
