Q&A: How do I add value to my home?
How do I add value to my home?
It depends on the current condition of your home and your market area. Many homeowners choose to modernize, renovate and add upgrades to add value to the home. This can be a sure way to go about it, however, not all upgrades are created equal. There are cases when upgrades add little to no value. For instance, if the upgrades are over improved for your neighborhood, it may not increase your value by much. It also may not do you justice if the upgrades are lacking in workmanship. If you're concerned about getting the most value from your improvements contact Deborah Reece, Authentic Realty, at 404-919-9881 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

Suiter Swantz IP takes a look back at past inventions and inventors with our Patent of the Day.
On this day in 1883, Thomas A. Edison was granted U.S. Patent No. 281,351 for an ELECTRICAL GENERATOR.
An excerpt from the patent states:
The object I have in view is an arrangement and construction of electrical generators and operating steam-engines suitable for use in a central-station plant for supplying electricity to conductors of a system of general distribution, wherein a continuous and constant pressure is maintained on the mains or in other locations where two or more generators are employed, feeding separately into the same circuit. For such a plant I provide separate and independent high-speed and high-pressure steam-engines for operating the dynamo or magneto electric machines, the advantages possessed by this construction over the use of a large low-speed and low-pressure engine for running all of the machines being of vital importance in a general system of electrical distribution. There is greater economy in running generators by separate high-speed engines, since the number of engines in operation can be changed as required by the work to be done or the number of translating devices in circuit. To get a certain speed with a large low-speed engine a definite boiler-pressure has to be maintained, no matter how small the load upon the engine may be; hence there is great loss of power when the load is small, which loss increases largely as the load is decreased below the point of greatest economy. With the large low-speed engine, when the load is small, the friction becomes an important factor in the work of the engine, and the economy is greatly lessened. These difficulties are not met with when separate high-speed engines are used, since the engines can be thrown out of operation as the load decreases, and the engines left running be worked with good economy. The boilers (of which there would be a number, preferably the same number as the engines) can be thrown out of operation; and hence the boilers can also be worked in the most economical way. With the large low-speed engine an extra engine of equal power would have to be provided for operating the machines in case the first engine should break down or had to be stopped for repairs, cleaning, or for other purposes. This makes it necessary to have double the engine capacity required for running the machines, making the investment for engines larger than when separate engines are used, since with the separate engines I have found that one extra or spare engine in every six is sufficient, making the reserve capacity only one-sixth the entire capacity, and this proportion might be still further reduced. I addition, with the large engine, the breaking down of such engine would cause the total extinguishing of the lamps for a time until the reserve engine could be started; but with a number of separate engines, when one breaks down, the load is take by the other engines and the lamps are not extinguished, but only a momentary drop in the candle-power occurs, which is instantly corrected by the regulation of the generators in the manner hereinafter stated. The wear upon the separate engines is also less, since they will be thrown out of operation a much greater proportion of the time than the large engine. A most important commercial advantage is the large saving in the investment for real estate for a central-station plant, it being possible to place the separate engines with the small reserve power in much less space than is required by the two large engines, with the necessary shafting, belting, clutches, &c.

Once upon a time, in the faraway kingdom of Dor, there was magic in the air, raucous laughter aplenty and gallons of mouth-watering soup. But a terrible accident left the king broken-hearted, the princess filled with longing and the townsfolk despondent. All hope was lost in a land where sunlight disappeared and the world became dreary grey. Until Despereaux Tilling was born. A brave and virtuous mouse, Despereaux is simply too big for his small world. Though tiny, wheezy and saddled with comically oversized ears, Despereaux refuses to live a life of weakness and fear…

New voice sings out for Southern Aggression
A dynamic duo from Southern Aggression shared its dharma of entertainment this week in Studio Blanket/Tent Fort for the column's radio show. Original member/drummer David Dodson was joined by the band's newest addition, singer Ryan McGowan.
The stalwart local heavy metal mainstays debuted with McGowan Saturday night at the Railhead Saloon. There's some pretty outstanding video on the Southern Aggression Facebook page taken from the show: https://www.facebook.com/Southern-Aggression/.
"Saturday's show was great," Dodson said. "We had a lot of turnout and the feedback was very positive. It felt great to be back in stage and Ryan did a fantastic job."
McGowan appreciated the praise. A proficient singer/guitarist in Sunlander, as well as his days in Grel and Deadweight, Saturday was a new experience in a couple of ways.
"It felt really good," McGowan said. "It was my first time doing a show where I didn't have an instrument in front of me."
Southern Aggression — Dodson, McGowan, guitarists Lonnie Billings and Scott Gholson, and bassist Christopher Floyd — has maintained its place as bulwarks of the local heavy metal community. When the singer spot opened up in October, they knew they were going to carry on.
"After Logan (Welch) left we posted on Facebook that we're looking to try out for a new singer," Dodson said. "He (McGowan) tried out again and he got the job. It didn't take us very long at all."
The upbeat drummer said McGowan has helped the band in its evolution and has invigorated the songwriting process to allow for more versatile range of vocals. It's led to a reimagining of the band's catalog as well as new perspectives with future music.
"Songs have been easier to finish with the addition of Ryan to the lineup, it's really good to work with musicians who are perfectionists like Ryan is," Dodson said. "Currently we're in the writing process and we plan to put out an EP very soon. It'll have a lot of newer material. We have a new, invigorated sound."
Both, Dodson and McGowan are instrumental in other projects as well. McGowan's band Sunlander recently found a drummer and performed recently with Oberon in Ada. Work continues on a long-awaited full-length concept album. The band's Facebook page has been rejuvenated the the band is sending out a monthly newsletter. "We're still going and flowing," he said.
Dodson, who entered the local metal scene with The Final Step before co-founding Southern Aggression, is also pulling double (bass) duty. He's been announced as the live performance drummer for local supergroup Titan Metal. Their debut 6-song EP is due out soon. He said he's been working with them to learn the material and is looking forward to performing live with them.
You can check out any of these great local bands via their Facebook pages and other social media.

Jokey was relieved to let McGowan offer this week's joke set-up. Here's the punchline:
"Unique up on it."

You dropped your iPhone, and now your screen looks like its covered in spider webs. Use this helpful advice to decide if it's time for an iPhone screen repair or iPhone screen replacement.
1. Smashed Glass Can Give You Splinters
If the glass on your phone has a few larger cracks, you might not notice glass slivers messing up your fingers right away. When the screen glass on your phone has shattered, touching it can and likely will result in getting small slivers of glass embedded in your skin.
2. Some Cracks Are Worse Than Others
When the screen glass on your phone is cracked off to the side or only consists of a few larger cracks, you may be able to continue using it until the cracks get worse and spread. A completely shattered screen almost always needs to be replaced as soon as possible.
3. It Makes Watching Streaming Videos Difficult
Talk about reading between the lines, good luck trying to read anything through the cracks in your glass, let alone watch videos on YouTube. Smaller videos that people post on Twitter or Facebook can be especially difficult to see through a smashed screen.
4. It Can Alter the Touch Screen Functions
Functions on your touch screen you rely on such as scrolling, selecting, and swiping can become unavailable or jumpy when you're dealing with a smashed screen. You don't want to end up stuck on the same website or swiping right when you intended to swipe left.
5. You Might Want to Replace It
While it might be tempting to deal with smashed glass for a time, once your glass has a crack, it will eventually need to be replaced. By getting it fixed sooner rather than later, you can avoid further potential damage to your phone and your fingers.
While iPhone repair can be expensive and inconvenient, charging your phone shouldn't be. With a portable battery or portable chargers from TYLT, you can keep your phone in peak operating condition. Contact us with questions about our products or for help ordering the tech you need now.

Lettuce has made its way into the list of most popular plants for today's home garden. Marie Iannotti, the gardening guide at About.com, says that lettuce has been growing in popularity for the following reasons: "Lettuce is one of those crops whose fresh picked taste simply can't be equaled by anything you can buy at the grocers." Iannotti says that greens are also relatively easy to grow, are high in minerals, vitamins and fiber, and perhaps most importantly for the home gardener, "it's cheaper to grow your own lettuce than to pay premium prices for gourmet greens." With so many benefits, lettuce should certainly make an appearance in your own home garden.
Keep in mind that different types of lettuce may grow best in different seasons and in different weather, so it's quite possible to keep your lettuce supply strong, fresh and rewarding straight through until fall for your harvesting and enjoyment.
The top five types of lettuce for the home garden include:
--Crisphead lettuces. Also known as iceberg lettuce, this variety grows slowly, producing round, pale green heads that are the crunchy lettuces you know. They may not handle hot summer weather well, so they are among the top choices for spring and fall harvesting.
--Butterhead lettuces. Also known as bibb lettuce and Boston lettuce, this type of lettuce features dark green outer leaves and crunchy, lighter-colored hearts. These varieties also do well in spring and fall, and some types even fare well in summer.
--Looseleaf lettuces. This type of lettuce doesn't form a round head, but rather grows in clusters of frilly or smooth leaves. It can be picked in its baby or mature stage. This type of lettuce likes cooler weather, so it is best grown in spring and fall as well. Baby green versions of this lettuce type fare better in hot weather than more mature plants, so plan accordingly.
--Romaine lettuces. The telltale upright heads of romaine lettuces have dark green or reddish outer leaves and crisp white interior leaves. Green romaine lettuces such as Jericho handle heat well. Again, baby greens in this variety can be harvested in less than a month, making this variety a quick plant-to-reward choice.
--Batavian lettuces. This type of lettuce handles heat well and opens to a looser head of bright green leaves.
The key to good lettuce growing is top-quality soil that is kept free of weeds and has good drainage. Begin sowing your lettuce seeds in early spring as soon as the ground thaws and the soil is dry enough to rake smoothly without clumping or mud. The experts at Burpee suggest that your soil be rich in nitrogen and potassium for your lettuce's best performance, so be sure to include fresh compost in your lettuce bed. Lettuce seeds need light to take root, so sprinkle seeds on top of prepared soil and cover them with an extremely thin layer of compost or seed-starting mix. Lettuce is best arranged in rows. Stagger your plantings -- laying seed and planting tray-started seedlings at the same time -- so that your lettuce crops are constantly delivering fresh and ready lettuce throughout the harvesting season. You don't want all of your lettuce to mature at the same time, leaving you with no further lettuce after your first harvest.
The experts at Burpee say: "Lettuce seeds won't germinate in soil that is 80 degrees F or warmer, so there's no sense in sowing directly in the garden in the summer. Instead, start heat-tolerant varieties indoors and move the lettuce seedlings into the garden, preferably under partial shade, after they've developed a few true leaves."
Iannotti suggests a few tips for your lettuce crop care: "If you have fertile soil, you shouldn't need to feed lettuce plants." Lettuce plants need regular watering since they have a shallow root system. Don't keep your lettuce garden bed damp or mulched; doing so invites slugs. You can grow lettuce in containers, as well.
Consult Burpee's online lettuce-growing calendar to help you plan your lettuce-planting schedule according to your zip code. Your garden center experts can also advise you on the types of lettuce that grow best in your region. To help motivate you in tending to your lettuce crops throughout the spring, summer and fall months, a great salad cookbook can provide you with a variety of healthy salad options for your family and for home entertaining.

AUS$"massively undervalued" and due to rise say analysts
The Australian dollar is "massively undervalued" and will surge nine per cent in the first quarter of 2007, analysts have said, following gains of 3.5 per cent over the past month.
On the foreign exchange markets early today the pound fell from near 16-month highs against the euro, from 66.85p to 66.94p and was trading at $1.9042 on the US dollar.
Gambling that the Reserve Bank of Australia will raise interest rates next week and is almost certain to do so again next year traders pushed the AUS$ to near its 2006 high.
Stephen Koukoulas of TD Securities said that the AUS$ still had the capacity to rise further as record export commodity prices have not yet been factored into its value.
"The Australian dollar is a very strong buy, even allowing for the solid gains in the past weeks," he wrote in a client note, reports Bloomberg.
The AUS$ was trading at 77.20 US cents in Sydney yesterday and will climb to 80 cents by the year end and 84 cents by the end of the first quarter, he predicted.

Scientists have announced the lastest finding into the remarkable roles that oxytocin plays in love and social relationships. Already known as the love hormone on account of studies demonstrating its significance for bonding between mothers and children, sexual partners, and people in general, the latest research suggests that oxytocin might also be a factor in the degree that husbands stay faithful to their wives.
A nasal spray containing the hormone caused men with wives or long-term partners to keep a greater distance from attractive women but had no affect on bachelors, researchers found.
Although those in relationships did not judge the woman to be any less attractive, they began to feel uncomfortable more quickly when approached by the woman and asked her to remain further away.
Oxytocin, dubbed the "love hormone", was already known for its role in attraction and bonding in both men and women, but had never been shown to play a lasting role in long-term relationships.
The findings suggest that boosting levels of oxytocin could help maintain marriages by preventing men from appearing interested in other women, researchers said.
Oxytocin is already used as a complimentary therapy by some marriage counsellers in the USA.

Crisp air, falling leaves, apple cider…if you haven't noticed it's definitely autumn!
I'm probably not alone in thinking that the holiday season can be quite stressful. The last weekend in October, we held an event at St. John's called "Self Care – In Real Life." Our speaker, Anna Rendell, walked us through some ideas to care for ourselves every day and especially during the holidays.
Here are some that stuck out to me:
- When you take out things to decorate if you aren't in love with it anymore and it doesn't bring you happiness get rid of it. Donate items that you don't use anymore and help another family to create new holiday memories!
- You don't have to do everything. Do things that are meaningful to you and your family.
Trying to make the "perfect Pinterest Christmas" won't always bring you joy, it might just drive you nuts. (I took a little liberty with that one!)
Overall, make sure the things you do this holiday season bring you life!!
During Advent, we'll be hosting a book study called Advent Conspiracy: Making Christmas Meaningful (Again). We'll be re-focusing on what the season is truly about. For many of us, there is a struggle to find the connection between our Christmas to-do lists and the story of Jesus' birth. An overwhelming stress has overtaken worship and celebration. This time of year when focusing on Christ should be the easiest is often the hardest. Somehow, this had become the new normal. It is our hope that you might create new patterns of celebrating the season! You can join us on Sundays during Advent starting on December 2 at 9:10 am in the Youth Room.
Lastly, this month we celebrated 3-year-olds as they received a prayer pillow from the congregation. They will all receive prayers every month from December to October 2019. Prayer Pillows were given out on November 4 and 7 at all services. Keep these young ones in your prayers as we support them in learning the power of prayer in their lives.

Jimmy Chin Climbs Yosemite, And Lives To Tell The Tale
National Geographic
In his time there, he found a new generation of superclimbers who push the limits--ascending 1,500 feet above the valley unassisted.
Jimmy Chin, a widely known for climber and photographer, recently spent 60 days in Yosemite, chronicling the the culture and cutting edge nature of climbing in the national park.
In his time there, he found a new generation of superclimbers who push the limits--ascending 1,500 feet above the valley unassisted.
He gives this account to National Geographic magazine:
"Visiting a Yosemite climbing camp today, you're just as likely to meet a divorce attorney from Delaware as a wild-haired dirtbag. Walking through Camp 4 one morning, I hear a dozen languages-Czech, Chinese, Thai, Italian-and meet climbers from all walks of life. A young German engineer, grinning ear to ear, has just completed a five-day ascent of El Cap. A barefoot young woman from Denmark, with nose ring, dreads, a tattoo, walks a slackline-a tightrope strung three feet off the ground between trees. A mom and dad from Washington State teach their two kids how to climb. Rock climbing is no longer a fringe sport. It's mainstream. And unlike the early years, there are nearly as many women as men on the rock..."
More information on Jimmy Chin and Yosemite can be found in May 2011 issue of National Geographic magazine, on newsstands April 26th.

March 30, 1997, Section 6, Page 26Buy Reprints
As Hedda Nussbaum, in a red coat with faux-fur trim, met the press on the courthouse steps in Manhattan on March 10 to announce a legal victory giving herself and other battered women more time to sue their abusers, she dabbed her left eye with a tissue. Photographers caught the moment and news accounts suggested she was crying tears of joy. ''I knew they would say that,'' Nussbaum says with a hearty laugh two days later. In fact, that eye, which Joel Steinberg's fingers gouged more than a decade ago, ''weeps'' nearly all the time from an injured tear duct.
Nussbaum, 54, and I are chatting in the law office in suburban Westchester where she works. It is the last in a series of conversations we have had over many days since 1995, after the hearings in Nussbaum v. Steinberg.
When I first met Hedda Nussbaum in the summer of 1995, she was driving a teal-green Geo -- her first decent car after two lemons. She escorted me and her lawyer, Betty Levinson, to a women's center in a northern suburb of New York where Nussbaum helped to lead a support group for battered women. Resting on the back seat was her shipment from Avon. Remarkably, Nussbaum, one of the most famous battered women in America, is an Avon lady. She doesn't actually knock on neighbors' doors but sells the beauty products mostly to family and friends. That day, she raved about a night cream that smoothed her shriveled arms overnight.
This is one of those surreal moments blending the commonplace and the unthinkable that characterized my conversations with Nussbaum. Scarred on much of her body, she has your average vanity and interest in cosmetics. Her only special need, she says, is waterproof mascara on the lower lid of the injured, tearing eye.
Seen straight on in a flattering light, her face framed by abundant curls styled to hide a cauliflower ear, Nussbaum can look surprisingly pretty. But when she turns her head in profile, I am jolted. Her nose, reconstructed twice, looks as if it has been sheared off. The asymmetry of her features -- one cheekbone flattened, the lips askew -- is unsettling.
Nussbaum walks with a slight limp; her back is hunched like that of an old woman. I cannot look at her without superimposing the image from a videotape made by the New York City Police Department on Nov. 2, 1987, the night Nussbaum and her companion, Joel Steinberg, were arrested for the beating death of 6-year-old Lisa Steinberg. Repeated viewings have not dimmed the shock of Nussbaum's sunken, glassy eyes in a bruised and swollen face, the split lip, the inflamed leg that left untreated would have killed her.
In those days, before events like the brutal death of Nicole Brown Simpson or Susan V. Smith's murder of her two young children, the nation was riveted by the tale of two affluent Manhattan professionals -- Steinberg, a lawyer, and Nussbaum, a former children's-book editor at Random House -- and their descent into sadism, cocaine
and madness. When police officers entered their brownstone apartment in Greenwich Village, they found a chaotic scene -- Lisa, who was dying; Mitchell, a urine-soaked toddler tethered to a playpen, and Nussbaum, battered almost beyond recognition -- and opened it up to the public's horrified gaze.
Steinberg's trial in 1988 -- many people referred to it as the ''Nussbaum trial'' though charges against her were dropped -- was the first marathon TV trial. Viewers were hooked on Nussbaum's days of grisly testimony. Nussbaum waived immunity when she agreed to testify against Steinberg. He was found guilty of first-degree manslaughter in the death of Lisa and sentenced to 8 to 25 years in prison, where he remains, his request for parole recently denied. Nussbaum spent a year at the Four Winds psychiatric hospital in Westchester and is sentenced to be Hedda Nussbaum for the rest of her life.
Despite testimony that nussbaum was delusional and near death herself when Steinberg killed Lisa, many people would not forgive her for allowing her daughter to lie comatose on the floor for 12 hours without calling for help. Her acquiescence to Steinberg's ''demand'' that they smoke cocaine while waiting for him to ''heal'' the child still outrages those who believe a mother ought to die protecting her child. Friends and supporters say those people could not forgive Nussbaum because she survived. Even feminists were split. As Ann Jones wrote in her book about battered women, ''Next Time, She'll Be Dead,'' many public figures joined Gloria Steinem's plea for understanding; others like Susan Brownmiller blasted her.
But there has been a sea change in the public's understanding of domestic violence since 1987, when it seemed beyond comprehension that any woman -- especially an educated professional -- could remain with a man who beat her nearly into oblivion. Since then, the psychology of domestic abuse has been better understood, especially the victim's profound attachment to her abuser. Women's shelters have multiplied, police departments have been better-educated and a growing body of national and state legislation, including mandatory arrest for batterers in some jurisdictions, has been enacted. But in 1987, Nussbaum was vilified for her inability to save her daughter.
When Hedda Nussbaum met Joel Steinberg in 1975, the 32-year-old book editor, shy and socially awkward, friends say, was entranced by the charismatic lawyer. After she moved
in with him, he coached her in nightly ''therapy'' sessions on how to walk, dress, get raises. Her popularity and success grew.
''I thought he was godlike,'' says Nussbaum.
Steinberg, inventing tales about sinister cults and convincing her he had healing powers, gradually isolated Nussbaum from friends and family. He hit her for the first time in 1978, Nussbaum says. A few months later, the beatings accelerated, and in 1981 he ruptured her spleen. Soon after, Steinberg arranged to have the infant Lisa brought to them. Nussbaum describes a honeymoon period, then more beatings, burnings and torture. She lost her job because she was frequently absent as a result of her injuries. Believing the beatings were her own fault, she strove ever more hopelessly to please him. Eventually she had to beg his permission to eat, to sleep, to telephone. So when Lisa lay comatose, Nussbaum did not call for help but obeyed Joel Steinberg so that he would ''heal'' Lisa.
At first, Nussbaum refused to consider Betty Levinson's suggestion that she sue Steinberg. ''It was so awful to hear her say he was a healer,'' Levinson says. ''It was spooky, terrifying.'' Not until Nussbaum heard that Steinberg was planning to blame her for Lisa's death did she agree to testify against him, and shortly afterward she filed suit for assault.
In more than 20 years of legal practice, Levinson says, she has represented dozens of battered women -- most of them affluent, educated and self-supporting -- whose batterers could afford their victims' medical care and therapy. But New York had a one-year statute of limitations on civil suits for assault. Battering victims often are in no condition to sue within a year, and in Nussbaum's case, Levinson wanted to hold Steinberg liable for all 10 years of his beatings. She saw her opportunity in a provision allowing the clock to be stopped if the injured person has been unable to sue because of ''insanity,'' which courts have interpreted to mean ''an overall inability to function in society.''
The suit, filed late in 1988, sought $3.6 million. But it soon looked as if the disbarred, jailed Steinberg had little left after his defense costs and tax problems. Levinson and Nussbaum agreed to continue the battle anyway, hoping to make new law for other battered women. Levinson says she has donated more than 2,100 hours representing Nussbaum in this and other legal matters. Fourteen women's groups, including the New York State League of Women Voters and B'nai B'rith Women, joined the suit.
At the pretrial hearings on the statute of limitations, Levinson relied on the expert testimony of Dr. Samuel Klagsbrun, a psychiatrist and director of Four Winds Hospital, and Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, a Harvard Medical School expert on psychological trauma. Levinson argued that Nussbaum was not a masochist who enjoyed or chose to endure her beatings but a reasonably normal woman trapped by an extraordinary manipulator.
In court, Klagsbrun and van der Kolk testified that Steinberg had systematically brainwashed, isolated and tortured Nussbaum, who merely survived from one beating to the next, functioning at a low level incompatible with bringing suit. Van der Kolk also testified that like Patty Hearst when taken hostage, Nussbaum formed a traumatic bond with Steinberg that took many months apart from him to loosen. He also noted that constant traumatic experience causes a victim's fight-or-flight response to be replaced by chemicals that numb pain and terror.
''It was true in Hedda's case,'' Levinson argued, ''and it is true for other battered women, that when your surroundings are limited by your captor, you become focused on the tiny, tiny events of your life, like 'Will I eat today? Will I sleep on the floor today? Will I sleep at all today?'''
Steven Liebman, the special referee in the case, wrote in his decision in New York State Supreme Court that Nussbaum's inability to get help or seek legal assistance was ''consistent with prolonged and extensive psychological and physical abuse'' and noted that in domestic violence cases, ''the victim may very well turn to the tormentor for connection and support....The destructive impact of violence in such an intimate relationship may be so complete that the victim is rendered incapable of independent judgment even to save one's own life.''
While it is still unclear whether Steinberg will appeal, the groundbreaking decision now opens the way for battered women in New York and other states to sue their abusers. Levinson calls for legislation to extend the statute of limitation that would eliminate the need for costly and burdensome individual suits.
During one of our first meetings, Hedda Nussbaum showed me around her tree-shaded cottage in one of New York's northern suburbs. In each of her artistically decorated rooms were displayed the few mementos of Lisa and Mitchell she was able to save or scavenge -- snapshots, crayon drawings, dolls. As she led me around and pointed them out, the effect was of a ghastly theme-park tour.
We sat down in her living room, and she took her prize possession from the lamp table. It was a photograph of herself, young and pretty, bending over Lisa, then a baby. Tucked into the glass frame was a small cutting of Lisa's strawberry-blond hair. Nussbaum tenderly traced the hair strands with her little finger. There were tears in her half-closed eyes and a cast of such desolation over her smile that it was hard to look at her.
Yet within minutes, she was bustling about to show me a T-shirt she had decorated with one of Lisa's designs. The splotchy watercolor often attracted compliments. ''I tell them, 'My daughter made this!' '' she said zestily, as if a thriving Lisa made it in school only last week.
Her feelings about her adopted son, Mitchell, are different. She recalls the profound physical attachment she had to him as a baby -- he was returned to his biological mother -- and she fantasizes about a reunion when he is grown.
The emotional leaps are dizzying. Nussbaum is by turns touching, disturbing, even funny. Her dogged persistence -- attested to, for example, by her thick folders of job applications and resumes -- is moving. But harrowing awareness of her past colors her every utterance and act. From small talk and easy laughs she slides into grief, then reminisces with an eerie detachment. She becomes incensed about an issue and talks nonstop. She gets sidetracked by flickers of anger: taking ibuprofen for her sore tooth reminds her suddenly that Steinberg wouldn't let her take aspirin for the pain of her injuries. At other times she laughs at memories like his sending her to forage in supermarket dumpsters. ''He liked free food -- he was so cheap. And I was so hungry I wanted to do it.''
Chatting about food sensitivities, being a vegetarian, decorating decisions, her clothes, Nussbaum could be the Upper West Side professional she was before she met Steinberg. But try to engage her on deeper issues of her life, and she often seems naive and bewildered. I find many of our conversations painful, but when I apologize for how hard they must be, she chirps suddenly with girlish enthusiasm. ''Oh, no, I find it exciting.'' She wants to use her notoriety for good, she says, and has five albums bulging with neatly filed clips. But, in her fragmented state, she talks with childlike eagerness of liking her ''fame,'' as if she has forgotten what she's famous for. If she connects the pieces of her life, she will confront a picture few of us could look upon.
''Everything reminds me,'' she says later, as if responding to my unspoken concerns. ''When I'm occupied with thinking about something specific, I don't.'' When she chops the carrots for our tuna salad, when she studies a menu, she is so absorbed that it's clear that she experiences nothing beyond that task.
Dr. Judith Herman, author of ''Trauma and Recovery,'' explains that this lack of ''modulation'' of emotions and ''unpredictable expression of feeling'' is typical of trauma victims, whether battered women or prisoners of war. When such people get completely in touch with their feelings, van der Kolk explains, ''the feelings are virtually unbearable.'' He adds, ''Others in similar situations have killed themselves.''
At this time, Nussbaum is slowly inching her way over the shards of her life toward accepting responsibility for her own role in the tragedy. Where she used to insist, in complete denial, that she was a wonderful mother, she now says she loved Lisa very much and was the best mother she could be. She says she doesn't feel ''guilty'' for her relationship with Steinberg but ''regrets'' it.
Van der Kolk says much damage remains from her abuse despite what Klagsbrun calls ''absolutely astonishing'' progress. Nussbaum herself, when I ask about the scars that remain, the work still to be done, looks lost. Then she responds with a quivery little smile and a sad quip that is haunting. ''No, I'm poifect.''
On the last day of february, Nussbaum, keyed up about the imminent court decision, teases a lawyer in her office about his messy desk. Her path to this, her second job as a legal secretary, began after she left Four Winds and was retrained as a paralegal. ''One thing I got from Joel that was positive,'' she joked during one of our meetings, ''was an interest in the law.''
Failing to get jobs as Hedda Nussbaum, she used a pseudonym, she says. But despite mountains of applications, her real identity always scuttled her prospects. She worked part time as a word processor and applied decals to salt and pepper shakers in a ceramics factory. Finally, a lawyer, Ralph P. Katz, hired her as a legal secretary in April 1993. When he died of lung cancer in January 1996, she was unemployed for eight months. She obtained 21 interviews using her pseudonym but after revealing her identity was never hired. Finally, she says she decided: ''Enough of this. I'm tired of using another name.''
Using her own name, she soon found a job. ''Being a secretary is not what I want to be when I grow up,'' she says, laughing. Still, she says she feels more comfortable with herself than ever, more than as a rising editor because then ''I was giving the credit to Joel rather than myself.'' A realistic appraisal of her options battles in her with an eager, wistful hope for a normal life -- career, husband and even -- through marriage -- children and grandchildren. Seven years ago she began a correspondence with a 10-year-old ''foster child'' in the Philippines and has proudly kept that girl's letters to ''Mama Hedda.''
Her notoriety makes dating difficult, but she has attended singles events and used personal ads and dating services. ''Hedda, huh?'' one man asked, questioning her until he confirmed his suspicions, then disappeared. Another greeted her disclosure with a ''freaked out'' silence. Still, there has been the occasional nice guy, the no-chemistry evening. Nussbaum has the usual set of standards for men, plus a special one of her own.
''Right now,'' she tells me during one of our talks, ''I can spot a controlling man a mile away!''
She gives a resounding no to the idea of seeing Steinberg again but concedes that she has not eradicated all feeling for him. ''I still feel good about how I felt,'' she says, remembering some of the happiness.
''A healthy recovery from domestic violence includes remembering the good feeling,'' Levinson says.''It's a part of herself.''
On our last day together in March, at her office, Nussbaum is beaming. The press coverage of her legal victory has been overwhelmingly positive. Her phone-message tape is filled with calls from well-wishers. One women's group in New Jersey has requested her as a speaker, and she expects other invitations. She hopes to publish a book she has written for children about domestic violence and soon will help edit a domestic violence Web site planned by the Greenwich Junior League.
With the lawsuit, she says, she feels she has accomplished something positive for women. ''I'd like to turn the tragedy into doing something for'' -- she struggles to find the words, gesturing helplessly -- ''although, of course ...I wish the tragedy hadn't happened.'' She subsides into silence, closes her eyes and sits utterly motionless.
A question from Levinson rouses Nussbaum, and almost immediately she is speaking briskly and knowledgeably about the lawsuit. She says she had explained to her battered-women group that the ruling can include women who are emotionally and economically abused. ''You don't have to look'' -- she breaks into a laugh -- ''like I did.''
Nussbaum will soon undergo further reconstructive surgery -- donated by a plastic surgeon -- to repair her nose and her cheek. She has decided not to undergo a third surgical attempt to repair her eye.
As we leave, Nussbaum heads outside to buy her lunch. Nimbly, she applies her Avon lip gloss and, her limp accentuated slightly by her elegant high heels, steps into the elevator and then out into the street.

SEVENTY-THREE people were killed and at least 1000 injured today after a pitch invasion and riot at a football match in Egypt.
Several police officers are among the dead and helicopters are ferrying the wounded to hospitals.
Trouble flared trouble flared at the end of a game when al-Masry beat Al Ahli 3-1 in Port Said.
Most of the deaths were among people who were trampled in the crush of the panicking crowd or who fell from terraces, witnesses said.
Live television coverage showed fans running onto the field and chasing Ahli players. A small group of riot police formed a corridor to try to protect the players, but they appeared overwhelmed and fans were still able to kick and punch the players as they fled.
Witnesses said trouble broke out when Ahli fans unfurled banners insulting Port Said and an Ahli supporter descended onto the pitch carrying an iron bar. Al-Masry fans reacted by pouring onto the pitch and attacking Ahli players. They then turned to the terraces to attack Ahli supporters.
Ahliplayer Mohamed Abo Treika said: "This is not football. This is a war and people are dying in front ofus. There is no movement and no security and no ambulances.
Violence at football matches across north Africa has increased significantly since political unrest began sweeping the region more than a year ago.
Angry politicians and sports officials decried a lack of security at the match and blamed the nation's leaders for allowing - or even causing - the tragedy.
"This is unfortunate and deeply saddening. It is the biggest disaster in Egypt's soccer history." Deputy Health Minister Hesham Sheiha told state television.
"I call for the premier league to be cancelled. This is horrible situation and today can never be forgotten."
State television reported that Egypt's football federation had indefinitely suspended premier league matches.
Egypt's Field Marshal Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, the head of the country's ruling military council, ordered two helicopters be sent to Port Said, the scene of violent soccer clashes, to fly out some of the visiting Al Ahli soccer team and its fans, military sources said. The helicopters would transfer the injured to military hospitals, the sources said.
Albadry Farghali, a member of parliament for Port Said, accused officials and security forces of allowing the disaster, saying they still had ties to the government of President Hosni Mubarak, who was overthrown a year ago.
"The security forces did this or allowed it to happen. The men of Mubarak are still ruling. The head of the regime has fallen but all his men are still in their positions." he screamed in a telephone call to live television.
Hospitals throughout the Suez Canal zone were put on a state of emergency, and dozens of ambulances rushed to Port Said from the Canal cities of Ismailia and Suez, said an official in the zone's local ambulance service.
Another match in Cairo was halted by the referee after receiving news of the violence in Port Said, prompting fans to set parts of the stadium on fire, television footage showed.
It was the deadliest football violence since 1996, when at least 78 people died and 180 others were injured in a stampede at a stadium in Guatemala City before a World Cup qualifying match between Guatemala and Costa Rica.
73 dead and more than 1000 injured in pitch invasion and riot at football match
SEVENTY-THREE people were killed and at least 1000 injured today after a pitch invasion and riot at a football match in Egypt.

The security measures include the presence of 3.000 security staff, police, special forces, gendarmerie and private security guards dedicated to EYOF operations only, plus 1.900 police staff responsible for security and safety in the city.

In her new movie Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, she plays the wife behind the politician.
But as Naomie Harris promoted the movie at the Toronto Film Festival on Sunday there was no doubting she was the center of attention.
At the event Naomie was joined by her co-stars, including Idris Elba, who his garnering Oscar buzz for his portrayal of Nelson Mandela.
Can't keep his eyes off her: Idris Elba admires his co-star Naomie Harris
And no wonder the pair looked so delighted.
For just the night before, the film prompted a standing ovation after its premiere screening at the Roy Thompson Hall.
On Sunday, Harris wore a silk satin, below-the-knee Burberry pencil skirt with wide black and red stripes paired with a black cotton tank top and Christian Louboutin Dahlia ankle boots.
Her long hair was in loose waves.
Fashion week: Harris shined in a Burberry dress and Christian Louboutin shoeties and the night before she rocked Marchesa at the film's premiere
At the film's premiere on Saturday, the 37-year-old actress wore a black tulle cocktail dress by Marchesa with silver stilettos and Jessica McCormack jewelry and her hair pulled back.
Elba, who wore a sleek black suit and trainers to the premiere, sported a more casual look at the press conference, wearing a striped T-shirt and navy trousers.
Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom, directed by Justin Chadwick is adapted from Mandela's 1994 autobiography.
It chronicles the iconic leader's journey from childhood in a rural South African village, his days as an anti-apartheid revolutionary, which led to a 27-year prison sentence, and his inauguration as the first democratically elected president of the country.
Other films have been made about Mandela, who is currently battling a lung infection, but Elba recently insisted that his version is by far the best.
The London-born Harris played Miss Moneypenny in the most recent Bond film Skyfall and has been cast in the same role for the next Bond film.
Elba, who was also born in London, rose to fame playing Stringer Bell in the acclaimed television series The Wire.
The actors will be the awarded The Hollywood Reporter's inaugural Breakthrough in Film Awards on Sunday for their roles as Nelson and Winnie Mandela.
The film will be released Stateside on November 29.

Helen Clark meets Anglican Church leaders
Prime Minister Helen Clark is today addressing the two yearly meeting of the General Synod of the Anglican Church.
Helen Clark said she welcomed the invitation to speak at the meeting in Auckland, at which she would be thanking the Anglican Church for leading the Hikoi of Hope from all corners of New Zealand to Wellington in 1998.
"The Anglican Church showed great leadership in taking that initiative. It put the issues of poverty, unemployment, housing, health and education squarely on the public agenda.
"I will be speaking to the synod about the measures the new government has already taken in line with the steps advocated by the hikoi, and urging the church to continue to play a role in drawing issues of economic, social and other importance to the government's attention."
Helen Clark said she welcomed dialogue with church leaders and would be inviting the Anglican Church to keep in touch with her and other government ministers to ensure progress continued to be made on the aims of the hikoi.
"The Hikoi of Hope called for a fresh start and a new direction and the Labour-Alliance government is providing it," Helen Clark said.
"The government recognises it has a duty to close the gaps that have opened up between rich and poor – including those between Maori and Pacific peoples and other New Zealanders.
"The government's first Budget next month will be further evidence of the new vision we have for New Zealand. A strong feature of that vision is improving outcomes for Maori and Pacific peoples in the key areas of education, employment, health and housing.
"The 1998 hikoi called for a demand for a new set of values and priorities in government. Our new government is heeding that call," Helen Clark said.

Billy McKinnon doesn't care about automotive purists. He's a doer. And his FJ45 Troopy was built his way.
When you save a shell from rusting to nothing, you're allowed to do whatever you want with it, and that's exactly what Billy did.
"Three hundred bucks I paid for it," he recalls. "Fella dragged it up from down in his paddock on a trailer axle. It caved all the sides of it in, but for three hundred bucks it was a good starting base."
To a lot of die-hard 'Cruiser fanatics, original early-girl FJs are sacred things in need of preservation. But a restoration was never in the cards for Billy.
"I don't think old mate I bought it off had any clue what I'd do with it. He was just thinking I'd restore it. I'd love to see his face now. It'd be pretty funny, I reckon."
In just a few short months, Billy's FJ went from stripped-out bare cab to ribboned-up wedding car.
"Over three months we did all the bar work on it. We were getting married, so I decided it would be a perfect car for all the groomsmen to go in. So me and the boys, we hooked into it."
"We did 14- and 16-hour days on it for three weeks, me and two mates, and we got it done. I got it engineered on the Monday, registered on the Tuesday, and then took it to my wedding on the Thursday."
It was a significant achievement for Billy to have his FJ there on his big day. It was a nod to his love affair with off-roading, started at eight when his dad bought him a Suzuki Sierra 4×4 to get around the family farm.
"It was just a '91 model, narrow track Sierra. Someone put a Corolla motor in it – a little 4A and a five-speed – and I think we paid a thousand bucks for it. It was pretty rough, but it did the trick."
Billy's dad passed on his DIY attitude, and it was almost inevitable that Billy would one day follow his old man into early LandCruiser ownership.
"Dad always had [FJ]40s. We built probably nine over the years, pretty much all shorties, and all of them had V8s. Never six cylinders, if they had them they were going in the bin. This is the first Troopy our family's had. It's good to have a bit of room."
Room, and – just like his dad's 40s – a V8.
Under the bonnet is an LS1 V8 from a VZ Commodore, boosted by a monster turbo setup that Billy lists as one of his favourite things about the FJ.
"When you look at the car, it looks fairly stock-ish at a quick glance. But then you hear it driving and you think, 'Oh, it's a V8,' and then you get up it and it cracks 'gate and screams its head off. Yeah, she goes like clappers. It's a sleeper. No one expects it."
You might also be wondering about the coil suspension at all four corners…
"It's an '84 FJ45 cab on a '91 FJ80 chassis," explains Billy.
The swap may not be to the purists' tastes, but no matter what they think, the truck is built to last. Almost all of the work was done by Billy himself.
"Dad's a big believer of doing your own thing and being self-sufficient. Growing up we were doing engine conversions on EH Holdens off a grapefruit tree. I liked it. It's good being able to do your own stuff. If I can't do it, I try and learn."
Just like any project, there's still more to do on the FJ. The motor's supporting mods and fuel system are setup to make 600hp, and Billy reckons it won't need much more to get it there from its current 450hp figure.
"I'd like to pull the motor out, put a cam through it, head studs, set of gaskets. Just tidy it up a bit and bump a bit more power into it. At the moment it's good, but you can never have enough power."
Of course, it's hard to commit to taking it off the road now that it's registered and being driven – and driven hard. It goes everywhere and does everything.
"Fraser, Moreton, Glasshouse, Janowen Hills… I want to do Vic next year. Before that there's a run with the Classic LandCruiser Club in Queensland. We'll go up there and run amok for the weekend… Probably a few more trips to Moreton. It's good fun on the beach."
As for his Sierra?
"I've still got it down the back. She's rusty but she's still there."
Billy has his own son now who has been hanging around the shed since he was nine weeks old. There are a few years yet before his boy's eighth birthday.
Plenty of time for it all to come full circle.
