On A Winters Day
IKEA Shopping!!!
Hey you! Today I went to IKEA, it is one of my favourite shops because you just get so inspired for your room/house decoration. Unfortunately (or not) you just CANNOT go out there whithout buying something! I don't know how they do that but always (ALWAYS) I leave my money there! I redecorated some spots of my room. Enjoy!
My Daily Hair Routine
Hey everyone! Today I'll explain how I'm doing my hair everyday. I don't do any special curls or straight them, I leave them mostly natural.
At first I us the REDKEN COLOR EXTEND Shampoo and from the same line the conditioner. After drying my hair with a towel, I apply the REDKEN COLOR EXTEND RADIANT SPRAY.
After that I brush my hair with my BRAUN Ion Brush and I there is some need I apply the L'OREAL HUILE EXTRAORDINAIRE. After that I take some NIVEAU DIAMOND GLOSS STYLING MOUSSE and knead it into the top of the hair.
After that, I blow dry the front of the haire (the ones aroung the face) with this Calor Blow Dryer with a incorporated turning brush (1). After that I blow dry the rest of my hair with a ordinary blow dryer (2).
If there are some waves on the front of my hair left, I straight them with a large BABYLISS curling iron so that they won't be too straight.
There you go! I hope you enjoyed this post!

text: Until recently, little thought was given to developing mentee skills. Since most formal (organizationally-sponsored) mentoring programs were designed to prepare the mentee to enter specific types of occupations (such as technical, administrative, or managerial jobs), it was assumed that selected mentors from those fields knew everything the mentee needed to know. Mentees might be given a brief overview of the program, but that was about the only training they got.

As Illinois treasurer, Alexi Giannoulias has the most statewide name recognition of any of the Democratic primary contenders. He won election in 2006 with help from then-Illinois U.S. Senator Barack Obama. The favorite of organized labor, his first campaign ads recalled his fight to save 600 jobs at Chicago's Hartmarx plant.
"We sent a message. If you want to do business in Illinois, you have to save these jobs," said Giannoulias.
According to most pre-election surveys, Chicago Urban League President Cheryle Jackson is frontrunner Giannoulias' closest competitor. She is supported by African-American ministers and at least a dozen women's groups including Emily's List.
"Now is the time for government to step up and see how to stimulate and support and drive growth, from Wall Street right on down to Main Street. So that's why I'm running," said Jackson.
Former Chicago inspector general David Hoffman entered the race last fall. The former federal prosecutor and Daley administration nemesis spent fours years rooting out waste and corruption at City Hall and wrote a scathing report pointing out flaws in the city's deal to lease its parking meters.
"I have a 16-year public service record of being a leader, of being independent, of fighting for integrity and reform and for fighting for regular people against the powerful interests," said Hoffman.
Other candidates include Chicago attorney Jacob Meister who is focused on jobs and the economy and Robert Marshall, a physician who champions healthcare reform.
"The economy is the central issue. Jobs, and how do we get back on track, so that those good, sustainable jobs for the next century," said Meister.
"I'd also like to see Medicare age down to 60, to help that age group," said Marshall.
In television ads, Giannoulias and Hoffman have dueled over the state's Bright Start program, a college investment fund that lost a net $75 million during Giannoulias' term as treasurer.
"I'm proud to say that we've taken the college savings program from one of the worst in the United States to now what is one of the top five in the country," said Giannoulias.

-Updated with more accurate info/ battery types
So you want to buy batteries for your Canon DSLR ?
don't want to spend 50+ bucks a pop for the Canon ones ?
read on, by the way pictures are at the bottom of the post.
60Da, 60D, 70D, 5dmkII, 5dmkIII
LP-E6 Sterlingtek
LP-E6 Canon
Canon BG-E9 Battery Grip
Canon BG-E6 Battery Grip 5d MkII Grip
Canon BG-E11 Battery Grip 5d MkIII Grip
LP-E6 Charger
6D, 7D, 7DmkII
LP-E6 Sterlingtek
LP-E6 Canon
Canon BG-E7 Battery Grip
LP-E6 Charger
I researched this subject quite a bit earlier on as well since I can't afford another $1000 dollar camera I wanted to be 100% sure they wouldn't mess up my nice new camera. First of all I'm talking mainly about the batteries from Sterlingtek. Another important thing you should know is that mah stands for milliamp hours. The larger this is the longer it will last in your Camera.
My camera is the Rebel XT which takes NB 2LH batteries, but many users on this forum have bought bp-511's from them which fit the DRebel,20D,10D,D30,D60
NB2L or NB2LH ?:
One thing about Sterlingtek is that the nb2lh that canon makes is their nb2l. Canon's NB2L is 570mah and their NB2LH is 720 (H stands for high capacity). Sterlingtek's are called NB2L but really should be called NB2LH.
1100mah vs 1500mah and 7.2v vs 7.4v :
on their website the batteries claim to say "7.2V Li-Ion 1100mAh"
the ones I received and I believe all other POTN users have received are labeled 7.4v just like the OEM Canon's and they aren't 1100mah they are 1500mah (better for us J) besides when the battery is fully charged it will show well over 8v..and when it is drained it shows around 7.4. I would personally never allow a single cell lithium battery to get below 7.4v..
In the picture you can see the voltmeter with the battery fully charged and then when the battery is discharged (Note: the battery wasn't fully drained when I took it out of the camera, if it was, I believe it would be close to 7.4v)
As some, at first i was skeptical of getting after-market batteries. To add another layer of "piece of mind" I use a battery grip. My hands are large anyways and the grip helps a lot with a small camera such as the XT. I know there are aftermarket grips available, but i happen to own a canon one and love it.
Amazon consistently provides the best price and service from my experience. I've never had an issue with a purchase or return, wish everyone would learn from them a bit.

LP-E4 Canon
(i know there are other brands of aftermarket batteries. I have personally only used OEM Canon batteries and Sterlingtek batteries. I included links for both.)
Now please read this part carefully!
I personally don't charge batteries unattended. This advice i got from my RC Airplane days. Lithium cells can be more temperamental if overcharged,etc. Keep them away from flammables, kids, dogs while charging.
If you take care of your gear and dispose of batteries after they start losing charge chances are very good that nothing will ever happen. If a battery gets punctured or damaged dispose of at your local recycling center and get new ones, it's not worth the risk.

There is this black cat with injured leg. One of its front limb has a disjointed paw which is bend. It has been moving around on 3 legs since day on I saw it when it was just a kitten. It used to be very shy and will move away. I have not seen it for some months and thought it is unlikely to survive.
Then it appeared again. Fully grown and the front paw seems to bend even more. I do look out for it whenever I pass by that area.
I have not seen it for a long time. It appeared again today ! There are many strays around that area. To be able to survive is remarkable. Strays have very strong survival instinct. Even when they are very sick by human standard, they can still 'labour' on. Their pain tolerant is unimaginable.

About our School
The John Warner School
The John Warner School is a vibrant, successful and forward-facing academy situated in the market town of Hoddesdon in Hertfordshire.
The school is part of The Hoddesdon School Trust (multi-academy chain) which also includes two local primary schools, Roselands and Cranbourne.
With a school community numbering nearly 1300 11-18 year old students and over 100 staff, we are proud of our long history of making significant contributions to education in the area as well as further afield.
"We have earned a reputation over many years for respecting the value, worth and dignity of all our students. We strive to provide a high standard of education in which all students can achieve their full potential." David Kennedy, Headteacher.
Learning is at the heart of everything that we do. The courses that we offer are broad, balanced and fit for a future where change is constant, and to be embraced.
We are determined to bring out the best in every individual by helping them develop their skills, interests and abilities.
In recent years we have secured and deployed £18 million worth of development which means that students now study and learn in some of the best designed and resourced accommodation in the country.
We pride ourselves on our strong sense of community where staff, students and parents work together in order to ensure that individuals are able to realise their lifetime goals.
Our very strong links with a wide variety of educational, cultural and commercial organisations enable us to provide a rich seam of experiences that complement and enhance the education we offer.
History of The John Warner School
The present school site dates from 1953 and adopted the name John Warner in January 1968 in recognition of the major contribution made by him to the development of education in Hoddesdon in the Nineteenth Century. John Warner, a Quaker, born in 1776 in the City of London, acquired Rawdon House and grounds in 1841 and built the first school for boys of all classes and any religious beliefs.
This British School for Boys was open for 20 years. Three subsequent schools, the National (Church of England) School for Boys (1844), the British School for Girls (1847), the National School for Girls (1858) - were amalgamated in 1930 and, having adopted the name of Hoddesdon Secondary School, moved to our present site in 1953.
Coming right up to date the school is an all ability comprehensive school.
The school is the proud holder of a number of quality measures; Charter Mark, Investors in People, Sport England, Sportsmark Award, Healthy Schools and three school achievement awards. In 2004 the school became a Science College after generous support from industrial sponsors.
In 2011 the school was graded 'outstanding' by Ofsted and became a convertor academy. In 2016 the school formed The Hoddesdon School Trust (multi-academy chain) with local primary schools, Roselands and Cranbourne.
The school has some of the best educational facilities in the country including state of the art science laboratories and sports centre. We are also an associate technology college with a vibrant Art, Design and Technology Faculty including new art studios and a bespoke engineering and design block. Most recent new buildings include a modern foreign language block, a new school library and mathematics block, a new classroom block for the faculty of English and the Humanities block.
The quarters on the school badge represent the original four Wards of the Urban District:
Hoddesdon: The Saint Catherine's Wheel denotes the Patron Saint of the ancient chapel which stood on the site of the present Clock Tower in the town centre.
Rye Park: Represented by the facade of Rye House, renowned as the place where plans were made by conspirators in 1693 to kill the then king.
Broxbourne: Symbolised by a badger, used by the Ancient families of Broxbourne on their coat-of-arms.
Wormley: The Parish of St Laurence is represented by the griddle of grid-iron on which the Patron Saint was martyred.
Oak Tree: The oak tree in the centre indicates the wooded nature of the area.

Let me be clear from the beginning. I DO NOT agree in any way, shape or form with what Donald Sterling, the owner of the Los Angels Clippers, is alleged to have said. If the tape released by the website TMZ is legitimate, Donald Sterling revealed himself to be a racist. His past history supports this claim also.
People have been calling for everything from suspensions and fines to having the NBA take way the basketball team Sterling owns. Adam Silver, the NBA Commissioner issued Sterling's punishment on Tuesday, April 29. Sterling is banned for life from the NBA. He can still own the team, but cannot attend any game or practice. He must still sign the paychecks for everyone, but cannot have any input in any decisions concerning his team. Adam Silver also said the NBA would try to force Sterling to sell his team.
I want to quote Mark Cuban when he was talking about this issue. "In this country, people are allowed to be morons. They're allowed to be stupid. They're allowed to think idiotic thought." While I find Sterling's opinions and views deplorable, I have to ask one question. When, in the United States did it become a punishable offense to be, as Cuban said, to be a moron?
What Sterling said is just flat wrong. However, what he said was said in the privacy of his own home in what was supposed to be a private conversation. I have always believed that in this country, a person had the right to believe what he/she wants and, unless it incites a danger, a person in our country has a Constitutional right to Freedom of Speech.
Racism is wrong. God created all people equally, in the image of God, as the crown of his creation. My question is, "Where does it stop?" What, instead, had Sterling said that he believed homosexuality is wrong? In many quarters he would be branded as homophobic, bigoted, and intolerant. Yet Scripture is quite clear. It is a sin. Any sex outside of God's created purpose in marriage is wrong.
Because of the success of the homosexual agenda, there are now movements out there to legalize polygamy. What if Donald Sterling had said in this private conversation that he felt polygamy was wrong? What if he said it was right?
I guess my ultimate question comes down to, "Are we becoming a nation run by the "Thought Police?" Where does a person's rights to think and feel whatever they may cease to exist? Where is the line between "idiotic thoughts" and punishable thoughts?
I believe Donald Sterling deserved to suffer something, but as Mark Cuban also said, "I think you've got to be very careful when you start making blanket statements about what people say and think, as opposed to what they do. It's a very, very slippery slope."
Have we taken another step too far? What do you think? Let me know and comment below.

Serious car accidents occur every day on Southeast Georgia roadways including Interstate 95, Hwy 17, SR 25, Highway 5, 82, 84, 99, 301, 341, the F.J. Torras Causeway and GA Hwy 520 to name a few. If you have been injured in an automobile accident or car wreck, you may be unsure of what your rights are in this situation.
Perhaps your vehicle was totaled and you are unsure how to meet your transportation needs. Maybe you are facing costly medical bills and have no idea how you are going to pay them off. You are probably already missing time from work and want to make sure that will be covered. Alternatively, you may need a doctor and not know how to go about getting the right one for your injury. Whatever your situation, Whitworth & McLelland is available to guide you through every step of the legal process and ensure that you get the full compensation you deserve.
Whitworth & McLelland, is located within walking distance of the Glynn County and federal courthouses in Brunswick, Georgia. When you need a local lawyer who is familiar with Georgia law contact our firm today. We are available evenings and weekends by appointment and can also visit you at home or in the hospital while you are recovering.
Insurance Companies And Medical Bills
Sometimes, even after you have contacted your insurance company about your automobile accident, the insurance adjuster may make your case unnecessarily complex and difficult. Insurance adjusters are often not on your side and have experience trying to get accident victims to sign settlements that are small and for less than what is deserved. They may tell you that you "don't need a lawyer" or discourage you from contacting one. Their intention is obvious; to prevent you from getting completely compensated. Our firm will help you out of that state of confusion. We will deal with insurance adjusters and insurance companies for you so you can concentrate on getting your life back on track.
Uninsured Motorists
Unfortunately many bad drivers do not have the insurance required by Georgia law. The good news is most automobile accident victims have what is called uninsured motorist coverage. This protects you in these unfortunate circumstances. Our lawyers have handled thousands of these types of cases. Give us a call and let us put our experience to work for you.

Before you run off ISO that perfect prom dress, think about the hassles and expense involved in that one big evening. Here are some ideas worth thinking about:
* Ruffles, applique, sequins, feathers, fringe, poufs, puffed sleeves and lace are all being shown on prom dresses. Make sure the dress you choose has no more that two of these elements. You're going to a dance, not skating in an ice show.
* If the dress is uncomfortable in the dressing room, it will kill you on prom night. You'll be getting in and out of cars, sitting down and dancing. Try it sitting down, bending over and do a few dance moves. If the dress is strapless, put it through some serious tests. You'll know if it doesn't work.

To get the best seed germination results, we advise you to germinate the seeds according to our standard procedure, with which we obtain germination rates of ± 95 % for all varieties:
• use a grow room with a stable temperature of 20/25 degrees Celsius.
• use soil with a pH-value of ± 7.0.
• the soil should not be too dry or too wet.
• sow the seeds in a container about 5 mm deep.
• after sowing press the earth lightly, this stimulates even sprouting.
• spray the soil lightly with water.
• cover the container with thin transparent plastic foil to achieve an optimal greenhouse effect.
• after 1 to 10 days the seeds will have sprouted. Now remove the plastic foil.
• sprinkle the soil regularly with water, wait till the upper layer has dried out, and sprinkle again with water.
• after 1 - 2 weeks the seedlings will be strong enough to put them in a larger container.
We do not take responsibility for seed germination. We do seed germination tests every 3 months to keep our seed stock in optimum condition. All seeds from our collection are grown organically.


text: Saw this on the 4cr forums and my roommate actually participated in their first official game night so I got to thinking... GBAtemp Game Night! (?) One night each week in which GBAtemp users could come together and WiFi it up on the DS! A different game could be played every week (maybe the users could choose?), perhaps with occasional tourneys and rankings? Thoughts?

The journey from February to now, the end of September 2015, has not been the one that I was hoping for. It has been more about caretaking than creating art. I have been only able to produce two decent, (if you can say that), works during these months. The rest of my time has been distributed taking care of family members in one way shape or another.
I hope now that the Summer is over, I can now focus on my work again. The work below is what I decided to keep. I have thrown out more than I would like. Craziness seems to be the norm during the last six months. I am looking forward to a quite Fall Season with little demands other than the normal caregiving routine that I have finally established.

On Monday, the U.S. Senate acted to strengthen legal protection against the theft of trade secrets, which costs U.S. business more than $300 billion a year. The Senate unanimously passed the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA), sponsored by Senators Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and Chris Coons (D-Delaware), which would open the federal courts to trade secrets litigation.
The DTSA would bring protection of trade secrets more in line with protection of other types of intellectual property, including copyright, trademark and patent. Under current U.S. law, claims for misappropriation of trade secrets are the only types of intellectual property claims for which plaintiffs do not have a right to pursue in federal courts.
The DTSA provides remedies for trade secret misappropriation, including injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorneys' fees in the event of willful or malicious misappropriation. Notably, the DTSA allows plaintiffs to seek ex parte government seizure of trade secrets to preserve evidence before notifying the defendant of a lawsuit.
The U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet is currently considering an identical trade secrets bill. Similar legislation was unsuccessfully attempted in 2014, but supporters of the DTSA, including many businesses and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, hope that the unanimous Senate approval indicates the legislation will pass this session. The DTSA will only become law upon passing both houses.

Approved for 1 CEU/PDA for NCCAOM and most states' recertification
Approved for 1 CEU/PDA credit through the State of California
Bleeding is an unwanted loss of pure substance in Chinese medicine. As such, it is very deleterious to ones health and well-being. Hence, stopping bleeding is considered a tip (or branch, i.e., acute) condition which requires speedy treatment.
In Chinese medicine, there are only four mechanisms of any and all bleeding. If one knows these mechanisms, then it is easy to specifically search out the signs and symptoms of the patterns those mechanisms present. In other words, knowing these four mechanisms makes positing ones working hypothesis quick and easy. One does not have to consider any and all patterns. One only has to discriminate four patterns
In this one-hour class, Bob will present a discussion of these four basic mechanisms of any and all pathological bleeding, insight into the inter-relationships between these four mechanisms, as well as herbal treatment methodologies for these mechanisms as they actually present themselves in real life clinical practice.
Goals of this course:
To understand the four causes of pathological bleeding To understand how these disease mechanisms mutually arise How to treat patients experiencing pathological bleeding with Chinese Medicine
About your instructor:
Bob Flaws began his study of acupuncture and Chinese medicine in 1977 and was in practice for 25 years before he devoted his energy to research, teaching, and writing on all aspects of Chinese medicine. Bob is a Fellow and past Governor of the National Academy of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, a founder, past president, and Lifetime Fellow of the Acupuncture Association of Colorado, and a Fellow of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine (UK). Today, Bob has retired from the field Chinese medicine entirely and now spends his time promoting English-speaking teachers of Tibetan Buddhism.

In the 7th-8th Parliament, Nrm had a famous group of the yellow girl s" led by Hanifa Kawooya among others. They were known to support Mr.Museveni without any reservation but as time went on, they lost the steam. They are still around but not as vigilant as in the past years.
What is new on the block however, is the emergence of the Yellow boys led by Ibrahim Abiriga.
In an interview with the Press, Abiriga in 2015 said he decided to quit the job of RDC because he had failed to serve people like he would wish using the position. Ibrahim Abiriga, the then Yumbe Resident District Commissioner had resigned to join politics as MP Arua Municipality.
Swadik Angupale, a local councilor welcomed and stood as one of his right hand man. He said that the decision by Abiriga to join active politics was one of the best ever to be made by him. According to Angupale, Abiriga was very instrumental in fighting corruption in Arua and Yumbe district where he had been serving.
Joseph Odama, a resident of Arua says Abiriga says Abiriga would often challenge government programs that don't favour the local people.
So far, Abiriga is the only RDC in West Nile region who has resigned to join active politics.
However Abiriga suffered a set back when he was bitterly fought over lack of academic qualifications a matter that he eventually won in courts of law.
But in Parliament Abiriga is known for only one thing, his dressing code that once sent MP Nambooze to raise a point of order that "a prisoner had entered parliamentary chambers" sending the house in a boot of laughing.
Deputy speaker Jacob Oulunyu ruled that Abiriga was properly dressed in a safari suit.
But today Abiriga has found a bigger role, not as a fighter of corruption but as one of the leaders pushing for the lifting of the presidential term limit.
The Spearnews further brings you a series of photos of Mr Abiliga parliamentary dressing code as here below;

Universe, please give me the strength to do the next right thing.
Please give me the strength to call my landlord tomorrow and tell her that I've no choice at this point but to move out.
I can't sleep here, and because I can't sleep I can't work, and because I can't work I'm not getting paid, and well, you know where that leaves me.
Please give me the strength to bear her angry words and accusations. You know how she is.
Please give me the strength to deal with the unholy mess my son created in the basement and garage.
Please give me the strength to actually get all this done in the little time I'll be given to do it.
But seriously, most of all, just give me the damned strength I need to talk to that toxic woman because the most saintly landlord would have a hard time with me waiting 'til this late to inform them that my miracle didn't come.
So just that one thing tomorrow. Please.

Working for one of Aviva's incumbent agencies, we had 5 days to pitch a new idea on how to reposition this well-known pension providers' retirement product proposition within the marketplace. The incumbent was a digital marketing agency and thus had no internal campaign creatives. Fist of Fury's main creative team were drafted in to win this pitch and deliver the campaign.
This was for a national ad campaign, including press, digital and ambient.
We won the pitch - pinching the business from a global agency.
Since the digital agency had already created a huge bank of illustrative assets as part of the wider project, we dveloped the idea from web designs/online video content – integrating this work into a really strong advertising creative concept.
Working closely with Aviva's marketing team to drill down the key proof points, we gave the campaign a clean, simple, yet fun tone of voice – building on the characterisation that already existed – creating multiple new characters to play a part in the work.
We then took the creative from press, to online display, to sponsored taxis – and even shot and shared a stunt using some Aviva-sponsored 'happy cabs'.

George W Bush has pledged to spread freedom throughout the world in his inaugural address shortly after being sworn in for a second term.
Mr Bush did not directly mention the war in Iraq, nor did he use the word terror but his message was clear that America would not relent in projecting its military and diplomatic might across the globe.
In a 17-minute address to a crowd of dignitaries including former presidents Bill Clinton, George H W Bush and Jimmy Carter, Mr Bush said: "It is the policy of the United States to seek and support the growth of democratic movements and institutions in every nation and culture, with the ultimate goal of ending tyranny in our world,.
The theme of the speech was freedom - a word Mr Bush used 22 times, an average of once every 38 seconds.
He said: "The survival of liberty in our land increasingly depends on the success of liberty in other lands. The best hope for peace in our world is the expansion of freedom in all the world."
But he made clear the link between democracy and the war on terror, declaring that America would never be safe as long as "whole regions of the world simmer in resentment and tyranny."
He also had conciliatory words to American allies, many of whom broke with Washington over the March 2003 invasion to topple Saddam Hussein: "We honour your friendship, we rely on your counsel, and we depend on your help.
"Division among free nations is a primary goal of freedoms enemies. The concerted effort of free nations to promote democracy is a prelude to our enemies' defeat."
Mr Bush focussed his speech almost entirely on foreign policy at the inauguration ceremony, which was held on Washington's Capitol Hill at a cost of more than £20 million.
Security around the ceremony was tight, with 100 city blocks being sealed off by police to protect Mr Bush from potential terror attacks as well as domestic protesters.

Went up to Washington to see my very favorite band The Wallflowers during their summer tour. They're on the road promoting their new compilation cd Collected: 1996-2005; it contains lots of great Wallflowers tunes you know and love! Getting to shoot your favorite band is about as fun as it gets! Thanks to Jakob Dylan and Fred Eltringham and Greg Richling (and Stuart Mathis and Bill Appleberry too). They are a great bunch of really talented and really nice guys. Make sure to pick up the album and catch them on tour!
Los Angeles has a long Jewish history. On October 10, 2010, I visited some of the historic sites along with members of my Temple Beth Sholom family. We were guided by a member of the Jewish Historical Society of Southern California. It was interesting to see the Judeo-Christian mix at the Welsh Presbyterian Church, formerly the Sinai Temple. It was really incredible to see the contrast between the ruined folksy beauty of the Breed Street Shul and the grandeur of the majestic Wilshire Boulevard Temple.
at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, CA. 3-25-09 Not only is James talented, he's very nice. He's also very funny. Near the end of the evening, he slipped in a pair of horrible fake teeth. You'll note a very scary image that looks like something out of a horror film. That was taken when James and his scary teeth jumped right into my face. It's a miracle I lived to get the shot!

Your cart is empty.:( Let's fix that!Close
Anytime is a good time for reading, but summertime -- when days are longer and the list of places to be is shorter -- is an especially good time. Books about summer, swimming and the beach make good summer reads for younger kids, book series make good summer reads for older kids, and librarian favorites make good summer reads for moms who love to read. Here are some recommendations for summer reading lists.
Picture Books for Younger Kids
About Summer
One Hot Summer Day by Nina Crews
Layered photographs and succinct words depict scorching summer heat in the city. A little girl's mother tells her to play inside, but she looks for fun outside and finds ways to cool off before rain comes and cools her and the streets and playground.
Sun Dance, Water Dance, written by Jonathan London, illustrated by Greg Couch
Soft watercolor illustrations in yellows, reds, greens and blues evoke the sensations in a lyrical poem about summer moments. Kids play in the sun, plunge into a river, skip stones, picnic under trees, watch the sunset, and fall asleep in a cabin.
About Swimming
Edward in Deep Water by Rosemary Wells
Not everyone is ready for the same things at the same time, and Edward isn't quite ready for a pool party. The humorous story of a shy bear will resonate with kids who still wear water wings.
Froggy Learns to Swim, written by Jonathan London, illustrated by Frank Remkiewicz
Froggy's parents set out for a swim in the pond on a hot day, but Froggy doesn't want to join them. He doesn't know how to swim, he says, forgetting that frogs are born in the water. Froggy's mom gives him lessons but he whines and splutters before getting the hang of it. Then, she can't get him out of the water.
About Beaches
Moonbathing, written by Liz Rosenberg, illustrated by Stephen Lambert
Most of us have visited the beach during the day, but what about at night? Moonbathing sends cousins on a full moon hunt for buried treasure. They spot a harbor seal before heading home to sleep.
Bats at the Beach by Brian Lies
Another beach at night book, it presents a rhyming story of the beach activities of fun-loving bats painted in witty detail on midnight blue pages.
Flotsam by David Wiesner
Pictures are worth a thousand words in the wordless book about an underwater camera that washes up on the beach. Kids and parents can imagine their own words for the imagination-stretching winner of the 2007 Caldecott Medal.
Series books for older kids
Series make good summer reading projects because when one book is done, there's another waiting to be read. These should get your older child immersed in reading.
Especially for Girls
Gilda Joyce series by Jennifer Allison
Theodosia series by R.L. LaFevers
Especially for Boys
Gregor the Overlander series by Suzanne Collins
Percy Jackson & The Olympians series by Rick Riordan
Novels for Moms Who Love to Read
Librarians know what books are hot, and they're usually avid readers themselves. These novels come highly recommended by a well-read librarian.
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
The Postmistress by Sarah Blake
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (and The Girl Who Played with Fire and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest) by Stieg Larsson

CHAMPAIGN — Friday night`s first game of the Illini Classic was a classic mismatch.
``We were a little out-athleted, in case you didn`t notice`` said Baylor coach Gene Iba after his Bears lost 92-68 to the better athletes on No. 6-ranked Illinois.
CHAMPAIGN — Friday night`s first game of the Illini Classic was a classic mismatch.
``We were a little out-athleted, in case you didn`t notice`` said Baylor coach Gene Iba after his Bears lost 92-68 to the better athletes on No. 6-ranked Illinois.
Everybody noticed, Gene. The mismatch became obvious early, as Illinois` pressuring defense and high-percentage field-goal shooting were too much for the Bears (3-4) to handle.
The Illini shot .672 percent from the field, and if Olaf Blab had hit his field goal with one second left on the clock, Illinois would have broken its Assembly Hall mark of .678 from the field. That was set in 1970 against Indiana. Instead, Blab`s shot stuck between the backboard and the rim.
``We shot well and played good defense, too,`` said Illinois coach Lou Henson, whose team shot 75 percent in the first half. ``Our pressure wore them down some, and we used depth and pressure to win it, plus fantastic shooting.``
Illinois forward Ken Norman hit 10 of 12 field goals and finished with 24 points. He`s had 20 or more points in all six Illini victories. But Norman also had five of Illinois` 16 turnovers. The latter is a statistic that continues to disturb Henson. Rebounding also continues to be a problem. The Illini finished with 30 rebounds to 25 for Baylor.
``I am sick of the turnovers,`` said Henson, whose Illini, now 6-0, had 10 in the first half. ``That`s something we`ve been harping about, and we didn`t get it done tonight. We must do a better job of handling the ball.``
And of the rebounding, he said, ``We took some people out because they weren`t doing the job on the boards. We don`t expect them to have the numbers on rebounds because we played 12 people, but we expect them to be in position.``
But there was more good news than bad for Illini Friday. Freshmen guards Kendall Gill and Steve Bardo again looked impressive off the bench, and 7-foot sophomore Jens Kujawa recovered from a poor first half to finish with 12 points, seven rebounds and two blocked shots.
``This is really my first pretty good home game,`` said Kujawa, ``the first time I shot 50 percent from the field and did a couple others things to help me gain confidence.``
Henson said: ``Jens is getting better and better. He`s starting to come along. Right now he`s putting up some difficult shots. He needs to use what they give him.``
The Illini are becoming accustomed to blowouts. They took a 20-0 lead on Chicago State before winning 92-78 last week, then crushed Eastern Illinois 85-51 last Monday.
By beating Baylor, the Illini advance to the Classic championship at 8 p.m. Saturday against the winner of Friday night`s University of Illinois-Chicago and Princeton game. Friday`s losers meet in the consolation game at 6 p.m. Saturday.
This is the eighth Illini Classic, and Illinois has won the previous seven.
Illinois and Princeton are the only two teams in this Classic who have met before. The Illini lead the series 3-1, but the Tigers took the last meeting 84-81 in December, 1965.
Illinois took an early lead, holding a 12-7 edge at 16:57 thanks to 2-for-2 shooting by Doug Altenberger from the three-point arc and a steal by Altenberger who passed off to Norman under the basket for an easy layup.
Altenberger made his third three-pointer in three attempts at 14:38 to boost the lead to 16-11. Baylor`s senior guard Dave Reichert, though, also was hot. Reichert made three long jumpshots, one for three points, during the opening minutes to keep the Bears close.
But in a two-minute span midway through the half, the Illini scored eight straight points (including two baseline jumpers by Norman) to take a 26-13 lead.

1. Build Strong Bones
Osteoporosis is a health threat for 44 million Americans, but with vitamins and diet you can build strong, healthy bones. Increase calcium in your diet with three servings of dairy a day, such as skim milk, low-fat cheeses, and yogurt. Nondairy options include canned salmon with bones, dark green vegetables, dried beans and calcium-fortified juices and cereals.
Recommended Calcium Amounts:
2. Dose Up on D
Without the proper amount of Vitamin D, calcium absorption is reduced. Vitamin D is found in fatty fish, fish liver oil and dairy products fortified with vitamin D. The recommended amount for adults is 200-600 international units a day. Vitamin D is also great for combating symptoms of winter depression during the long and dreary Chicago winters.
3. Get Checked Out
Take a trip to the doctor and do the recommended tests to solidify a clean bill of health.
*begin testing earlier if you are predisposed or have a family history with a health risk
4. Get Active & Make Fitness Fun
Get your body moving and your heart rate up for at least 30 minutes a day, 3-5 times per week. Not only does regular exercise reduce stress, your energy and metabolism levels will increase. So, take the stairs and explore different sports to see what you enjoy most. If fitness isn't your favorite activity, consider something different like belly dancing classes, yoga, pilates, pole dancing, aerobics, self defense and more. A tip for the early birds: working out in the morning is best because keeps your metabolism high all day!
5. Drop Sizes Safely
Weight loss goals are safest for the body when achieved slowly over time. Losing 1-2 lbs. per week is a healthy, realistic goal. Of course, you may lose weight and stay the same on the scale -- keep in mind that muscle weights three times as much as fat!
6. Portion Control
Denying yourself every food you crave will simply make you desire more. Instead, allow yourself to eat meals and snacks in moderation and appropriate size portions while avoiding seconds. For example, one serving of meat (3 oz.) should be about the size of a deck of cards, while one serving of pasta (1/2 cup) is the size of a tennis ball.
7. Make Sense of Nutrition
It is hard to change your body without understanding what you should be putting in it. Start reading the labels of your products and research the recommended amounts of each food group. Over time, things will start to make sense. For those looking to learn quickly, consult a nutritionist or research online.
8. Curb Caffeine and Hydrate
Over 50% of Americans above the age of 18 drink 3.1 cups of coffee per day, while soda consumption is now reported to be growing even more rapidly. Not only do these beverages add chemicals to the body, they also dehydrate. Cut down on caffeine and increase your water consumption. Easy tip: before every cup of coffee or soda, drink a glass of water first.
9. Cut Back on Alcohol and Cigarettes
Quitting smoking isn't easy, but if you adopt a healthier lifestyle you will find your cravings will lessen. With strength and will power, they can go away for good. All changes are gradual, so if you slowly decrease your intake of both, you will find that you don't need them like you thought you did. To achieve optimal health or if you are trying to conceive, you should not smoke at all and limit alcohol intake to the equivalent of one unit per day.
10. Guard against Stress
With family, the house, friends and an economy in chaos, it is easy for the stress-o-meter to hit the red zone. It is imperative to take steps to de-stress; without doing so your job, relationships, happiness and overall health will suffer. Pamper yourself with a massage, warm bath, or a quiet night in at least once a month, if not more.
