Women's Jewellery On-line In PakistanPosted on
Style jewelry: handmade style jewelry such as necklace, earring, bracelet, ring, beads, accessoies…complete kinds of jewelry for your option. Excellent lens…it really is good to see other handmade artisans featured! I even purchased the starter kit for a super deal on some issues I'd wanted to try but I honestly never have the time to sell it. I consider that's the most essential factor to preserve in thoughts when you determine to join an Multilevel marketing firm – you actually HAVE to put the function in to see the benefit, just like any other job. Check out It's brand new so there aren't numerous merchandise but, but it really is a great choice for sellers because of the reduced fees and buyers, save it as a favourite and verify back occasionally to see if it has what you require. Painting slip on a twig will only capture the surface texture on the inside of the hollow metal tube soon after the wood burns out for the duration of firing. I would give a cash rose to Wonderful lens and straightforward directions! Roll across the clay on leading of the texture with a clay roller. Since this website gives massive-name brands, the bargains are not as good as on some of the smaller sized web sites.

text: Share: Comments Print November 16, 2009 at 9:43 AM Can this season rank as one of UW's biggest improvements ever? Posted by Bob Condotta For my story for today's paper, I wrote about what is left for the Huskies after Saturday's loss at Oregon State. And among the carrots still left is to put this season in a category to be regarded as one of the biggest single-season improvements in UW history. In fact, with two more wins, UW would finish 5-7 after having gone 0-12 last year. That would obviously be five more wins than last season, the biggest improvement since 1970 when the Huskies went 6-4 in the first year with Sonny Sixkiller at QB after going 1-9 in 1969. The biggest improvement since then came in 2000, when Rick Neuheisel and Marques Tuiaosopo led the Huskies to the Rose Bowl and an 11-1 record a year after going 7-5, or a four-game improvement. This UW team can match that one by winning one of the last two. One season that technically reads better than the 2000 season is 1977, when UW is listed with a 10-2 record, having gone to the Rose Bowl in the third year under Don James, a year after going 5-6. However, UW went 8-4 on the field that season, later having losses against Mississippi State and UCLA rules as forfeit wins. As mentioned in the story, the biggest single-season leap came in 1959 when the memorable third team for Jim Owens went 10-1 and won the Rose Bowl a year after finishing 3-7, a leap of 6.5 games. So the question for Husky fans will be whether a 5-7 season, which again would go down as the biggest single-season improvement in 39 years, would be satisfying in any way, or just that add to the disappointment considering all the earlier games that got away. PROGRAMMING NOTE — We'll have more later today from Steve Sarkisian's regular Monday press conference. However, since this is a bye week, there won' t be a depth chart or some of the other usual trappings of a game week. Comments

Is Christmas the one where you're thankful? I might be getting this confused with some other holiday, as I am old and confused though still largely continent. No, I'll bet that's "Thanksgiving", because of the "thank" part. So what is it we do on this one? Do we wear something? Is this the one with the hats? No, wait, that's "Hat Day." Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Of course, Christmas is always whoops! -sorry an occasion of much good-natured merriment here at Kelp Manor, where the dwarves are even hungrier than usual this time of year, for they know jolly old St. Nickisonhiswhoa. Christmas is wicked intense, don't you think?
Anyway, thanks SO MUCH for coming to our swingin' Christmas soiree (I believe that "soiree" is French for something you'd eat in France), where we'll no doubt be partyin' down groovily until the wee, wee hours. Won't you join us? Not actually, but in the sense of reading about it later? Wow! Cooool!!!
Hey, isn't that my wife, the cruel, devastating, yet kinda young, kinda wow Mrs. Kelp? Hi, honey! (Look, she's waving!) What? Oh, sure! Would you like to go and briefly meet my wife, the disastrously lovely and enchanting object of my ne'er flaccid zeal, da wif, Mrs. Kelp? She's certainly been asking about you…
Honey! Oh honey! This is those people I've been telling you about, the Readers? The very same! (She always used to kid that you never existed.) You must've scared her out of her skin! I know! I am! Really? They're taller than I pictured, too! Me, too! She says, you guys are so tall! Ha!!! Bye!
Isn't she wonderful? Now, let's go over to the kitchen and see what Yolanda, our Lithuanian houth girl and tragic chef, has cooked up for this merry occasion. Ooops! Well, nothing edible, obviously! Sorry Yolanda! We'll come back later when she's feeling better.
Ah, you've noticed the dogs! More than eighteen roving, medium-to-giant size dense black dogs acting really personable and affectionate, all at once, and forming a giant, writhing mass of coursing, roiling fur! Down! Down! No! No no no!
That little one's Checkers. Look, he's got different color toes; what a fine canine! He's all excited about Santa. Aren't you, little fella? Aren't cha? Aren't cha? Oh, yoouuu! Aren't they precious?
For all those of you who may have the urge to hit the author in the head with a large mallet at this point, I'd remind you that that's not exactly the spirit of Christmas, as entirely intended by our Lord and Savior, da Nazz. The spirit of Christmas would be more along the lines of: this person is a feeb, and certainly doesn't have the wind to sustain this for more than a page, what the hell, we'll leave right after. It's a time to ignore your neighbor, as he would ignore you if he even noticed you in the first place.
For even as Joseph gave unto Mary a shawl, probably (or something), at Christmas; not wrapped, because they had no money for wrapping paper, but licked clean, for Joseph wath alwayth a funny guy at holiday time. They swaddled the Babe, who hit many a long ball, as if to say, Merry Christmas to all, batting for Tidwell, and whoa! watch out for that huge, rumbling, galloping cat! A cat so insane the dogs actually seem to respect it, a cat who could and would crush you like a pancake under her thundering hooves; our only cat (even I have my boundaries); dear Bill the Cat.
But I digress…
What I really meant to say, before I so rudely interrupted myself, is that supposing Christmas was the one where you're thankful, (which I don't think it is), then I would be thankful for the Sopranos. I know this sounds idiotic, because I always hate to hear people talking, or worse, writing, about TV shows (in part because, usually, I've never seen them); but this show has gotten awfully close to my heart. It's the first TV show I can remember that absolutely could wipe the floor with any movie released the same year. (Bad year, maybe, relatively, but still…)
The acting and the writing are both as good as it gets, and it always manages to be completely unpredictable yet somehow strangely evocative of real life. The whole cast is flawless (save Miami Steve, who looks and talks like a "Dick Tracy" villain), but James Gandolfini and Edie Falco are beyond wonderful. Folks who can't get beyond the violence and obscenities are missing a real, nasty, funny, soulful, brutal heartbreaker.
So if Christmas is a time to be thankful for all the wonderful things we have (which it isn't), then, well, there, "The Sopranos" is something I'm really thankful for (along with the wonderful Italian dinner we frequently get with it, from our neighbor across the street, the Grand Duchess of Garden Lane and Keeper of Tiny E, who Sticks Her Butt Way Up in the Air When You Pet Her (whooo, boy, now there's a good sounding Indian name!) (Oof! Excuse me!)
Man, this eggnog is totally happening! Oh, jeese, now I'm getting really mushy.
OK, you guys gotta go. Yeah, yeah, merry Christmas.

Sunday at 2:50 PM, I took off with Joe White and his assistant, Mark Landers in Kanakuk's private jet to head to Longview, TX. Joe spoke at a Pure Excitement event (click here for more information about Pure Excitement.) Right after that event we went right back to the airport to head over to Waco, TX. On the way to the hotel, we stopped for dinner at Taco Cabana. That got me really excited for some good 'ole Roberto's when I get back to San Diego in less than two weeks! The next morning was a little crazy getting everything we needed for Joe's chapel at Baylor. Chapel went very well and it was fun to see some good friends who are there right now that I'll be able to hang out with next year.
After, we hit up lunch at Vitek's and you don't go to Vitek's and not get a gut pack. In a gut pack there is Fritos, beans, cheese, beef, homemade sausage, and some bread. Now I made a little mistake by getting a large. I was able to finish only after about 45 minutes of sitting there with it in front of me. While we were sitting there, Joe received an email from a girl who attended Baylor's chapel just an hour prior who had planned to commit suicide but God spoke to her through Joe and instead of taking her life, she gave it to God. Praise the Lord! The next few minutes were so powerful and I will never forget the emotion that was attached to it. We went straight to the airport after lunch and headed back to Branson. Needless to say, this week started off right. I did have to miss probably the best Mystery Monday which was zip lining but I think I still won.
This week our speaker was Tim Watson who is almost a certified counselor. Tim is one of the most personable guy I've met. He's the kind of guy who you just want to keep spending more time with because he's so nice and cool! But anyways, he's teaching us how to be counselors. Biblical counseling is based on these pillars: must be rooted in God, you must exalt Jesus Christ, be empowered by the Holy Spirit, and you must love as Christ loved us. This leads to what biblical counseling is all about, to serve the glory of God and for the good of mankind.
It has been a good week, crazy, but good. As excited I am to go on to be a Baylor Bear, I have been super blessed by my time here at Link Year. It has helped shaped the man I am today and I am so grateful for that. Excited for whats to come. If you have a little time, check out my friend Michelle's blog she just started. First post is pretty cool!
Until next time.

From the wlox.com interview in Biloxi last night:
"It actually becomes a type of therapy where it helps relieve a lot of stress, it makes you feel good about yourself, creates a lot of positive energy around yourself which not only makes you feel good but helps you excel in whatever you're trying to do or achieve and that's not just for the body builder but for the person in general in the working environment in school and that kind of thing," said Cutler.

text: How much have you retained of the grammar you learnt at school? I'm guessing not a lot – at least not in a formal sense. 'Dominant clauses', 'past participles' and 'future perfect tense'? If you can define all those you probably don't need to read on. Strangely, although most of us left a lot of grammar behind when we walked out of our final English exam, there are other English lessons which have stuck fast – despite their being wrong or now out-of-date.

Aims • To implement on a larger scale the successful intervention elements that were developed and tested in the pilot study of a community based alcohol education and community mobilisation program in rural Sri Lankan villages. • To measure the effect of the intervention on alcohol use and depression within each village. • To measure the effect of the intervention on alcohol use disorders, deliberate self-harm and key social outcomes. • To assess the effect on village social capital and support networks. • To evaluate context specific barriers to, and facilitators of, implementation • Undertake a cost effectiveness analysis from a societal perspective
Background Alcohol is in the top five causes of disability and death world-wide, contributing to 5.9% (over one in 20) of all deaths globally, 17% of deaths from unintentional injuries and 16% of gastrointestinal deaths are attributable to alcohol (3). South East Asia has the second highest rate of harm per litre of alcohol in the world (after Eastern Europe) (3). This relates to riskier consumption patterns, including use of illicit alcohol (3). Illicit alcohol largely falls outside the scope of established regulation approaches used in high income countries, such as taxation, pricing and limits on availability (4-6). In rural Sri Lanka, alcohol consumption is a significant social and medical problem (3)and is strongly linked with high annual incidence of suicide and deliberate self-harm (363/100,000) (7-9). Sri Lanka currently has the world's third highest male suicide rate at 46/100,000/year (10). In terms of social and culturally deleterious impacts, alcohol is also a major cause of domestic violence and depression in families (11,12). There is also a strong relationship between poverty and alcohol use (13,14). Alcohol related cirrhosis cases, accidents and deaths are well documented in Sri Lankan hospital practice (15). The cirrhosis mortality rate of 33.4 per 100,000 males is among the highest in the world, over double the rate of 14.1 in the UK (16). In LMIC, including Sri Lanka, alcohol is linked with road traffic accidents and other forms of injury (17,18). Sri Lankan injury rates are high with a mortality rate of 177 (95% CI 72 to 283) and disability rate of 290 (95% CI 250 to 330) per 100,000 people (19) (about 3 fold higher than the global average).

French Toast Crunch Is Back. Here's How To Celebrate
December 12th 2014
It's true what Belinda Carlisle says.
Heaven truly IS a place on earth.
You heard the bitch.
Why so heavenly? Well, until the Messiah decides to pop back in and say hey
He's sent the next best thing in his place—buttery, cinmmamony goodness also known as
Indeed, this delectable toasty treat once packed pantries the minute it debuted in 1995, spending the next decade doubling as a religious experience as well as a decently balanced meal for one and for all. It made sin-nnamoning feel okay. It was…a spiritual awakening, if you will. #breakfastfood.
But alas. The violent and inhumane año of 2006 rolled fuckin tide, taking this messiah-like morsel on its way out the annual door.
With its recent and welcomed come back on our grocery shelves and local 7-11s. Well. We have no choice but to fucking celebrate. And here are 5 ways I know how.
5 Ways To Celebrate The Return Of French Toast Crunch
1. Boycott All Other Breakfast Foods
Something generally nutritious?
As we've witnessed, French Toast Crunch can be fickle as SHIT. Best eat all that maple-syrup madness now bowl by fuckin bowl because WHO KNOWS what decade it'll choose to bounce.com this time.
I can't handle that kind of heartbreak again.
I just…
2. Make It Rain
Thaz right.
The cycle is this:
Buy in bulk.
Sell to the desperate.
Make a profit.
Make it rain.
3. Start A Riot
Why not.
It's trending now anyway…
4. Poison Walter Jr.
Lord knows that kid loves breakfast food.
And LORD KNOWS he'll hoard the shit out of this limited-time offer.
So sprinkle something unkind into his breakfast bowl circa 8am tomorrow.
And then go back to bed.
It's for the best.
5. Eat The Damn Thing
Indulge in those tiny toasted treats coated with maple madness and breakfast like a CHAMPION.
It's a great way to kill time before this guy gets back.
So keep calm and cereal-celebrate on my friends, lord knows I will be.

Both mindfulness and meditation have entered public discussion in the last few years, and much debate carves out space between the two. Yet, at times, the words have come to mean the same thing, which can confuse matters.
No one seems, though, to disagree on many of the benefits of a mindfulness and a meditation practice:
- a calmer, more peaceful mind
- more focus
- an increase in problem-solving capabilities
- an ability to put the pieces together faster and accurately to know what course of action to take
- and the capacity to dispel disagreements and create harmony between people.
The question then is—are we doing something different when are being mindful and when we are meditating?
Here, we're going to say that mindfulness is a type of meditation that brings your mind into a state where it is fully aware of what is going on, fully aware of what it is paying attention to, while breathing, eating or walking. Watching the mind, being aware of what it is doing—whether it is reviewing the past, making future plans or staying fully in the present—is a powerful, mindfulness meditation. This, indeed, has a profound calming and focusing effect on the mind and body.
Mindfulness meditation, then, becomes a platform for other kinds of meditations that help us to more fully develop qualities like compassion, love, patience, joy and wisdom. It's the principal step on a ladder towards greater understanding of oneself and the world.
In 2018, continue to join the Asian Classics Institute and Geshe Michael Roach as we develop more classes, retreats and trainings on mindfulness and meditation. Our programs will help everyone master their mind to become a master of meditation, and train qualified teachers to spread these unparalleled techniques.

SCOTTSDALE - Timothy Ward Jr. weaves a traditional Apache burden basket. The Clark-Begaye family from the Navajo Nation prepares fry bread. Three young Hopi dancers put on their regalia before the opening performance.
For only the fifth time in the past 15 years, a majority of the state's 22 tribes have gathered to promote tourism for Native Arizona, one organizer said.
Donovan Hanley, president of the Arizona American Indian Tourism Association, said it's "pretty unique" to have all the tribes together.
Organizers expected a large crowd to attend the Arizona Indian Festival at Scottsdale Civic Park, which ran through Jan. 31.
On Jan. 29, Minnesota resident Linda Hedlund stopped by a booth promoting Antelope Canyon on the Navajo Nation.
"It's a very interesting gathering of tribes, several I have never even heard of," the 65-year-old said.
Organizers said they hope the exposure will entice people to come back to visit Native Arizona.
"The festival is a pageantry of culture," Hanley said. "It's song and dance and food. We want to touch all the senses for everyone."
Tourism is Arizona's No. 1 export industry, bringing in $19.3 billion in 2012, according to the Arizona Office of Tourism. And the state's rich Native American culture attracts a significant amount of that.
One state tourism study estimated the yearly economic impact of visitors to Arizona's tribal lands is roughly $391 million.
For years, the state and tribal associations have promoted tourism on the national and international level.
Although the 2005 study commissioned by state tourism office indicated the vast majority of visitors came from the United States, about 4 percent were international visitors.
"Tribes definitely play a role in the international marketplace," said Dawn Melvin, Arizona Office of Tourism's tribal relations manager. "In Germany, they have clubs where they have powwows and give each other Native names."
Part of Arizona's attraction comes from the variety of experiences found here: Visitors can hunt trophy elk on the San Carlos Apache tribe. They can catch a baseball game on the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. And they can photograph exclusive views of the Grand Canyon from the Hualapai tribe's Skywalk.
The attractions often depend on the tribe's geography.
"Those tribes with less casinos in the north attract a lot of cultural tourism," Hanley said. "Those in the south with casinos and resorts rely on the attraction tourism."
The study indicated that tribal land visitors are slightly older, have higher annual incomes, stay longer and spend more daily than Arizona visitors generally. The main reasons people visit are sightseeing and shopping, but tribal officials hope visitors also learn more about the culture.
"We want people to break down that stereotype of headdresses and the Plains Indian image that Hollywood has put forefront," he said. "The Southwest is totally different."

Quick trip: Atlanta
One of my New Year's resolution was to start something that I could call mine. I knew if I wanted to be successful I needed to research and take advice from someone who was already a master at the craft. So I decided to try and join an eCommerce and/or website workshop. I totally could have taken it online but what would have been the fun in that?
So I looked for a workshop in a city I had never been. Lucky for me Olori Swank was having one in Atlanta on Feb 20. I never drove to Atlanta let alone been in a car for 6 or more hours. Oh, well. The best solution to having the drive finish fast was to get a great friend. Which I did, #sisterfriend. We drove from 2:00 AM to 8:30 AM to get to Atlanta. I went to sleep and woke up at 11:00 AM. Got dressed and arrived to my workshop by 2:30 PM. I than left the workshop at 7:00 PM and I decided I wanted to try some soul food from the good ole South. I went back to get my friend and we had drinks, met great people, and ate at Glady's Chicken and Waffles from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
I was only in town for one night so... we went to Compound from 12:00 AM to 3:00 AM. We were back on the road the next morning & it was the funnest mini girl's trip ever. Why? I didn't come to sleep, I came to work and play. That was the best snapshot of another city I've had. Short and sweet.

The Accidental Tandem Feeder
Being a mum didn't come easily to me. I joined an online forum for support the weekend of our first IVF cycle. Although I didn't know their real names, those women celebrated the good times and grieved the sadness with me. Finally, they were with me when my ninth embryo transfer resulted in a successful pregnancy!
It was some of these women who bought me an Australian Breastfeeding Association membership. I wanted to breastfeed. Having experienced infertility, I wanted something "normal". But at the same time, I felt that if it didn't work out, it would be okay. I knew many healthy formula fed babies. I doubt I would have joined ABA myself.
But I had this membership, so I figured I'd check out the local group meeting. I recall the icebreakers of the first meets I attended. 1. our reasons for breastfeeding, and 2. our breastfeeding goal. My answers…
1. because breastfeeding is normal, the way babies are supposed to be fed, and
2. 12 months.
The first week after my daughter was born was rough. I went through many of the usual traps first-time mums experience. She lost 10% of her weight, my milk didn't "come in" as expected, I had to top up with formula, although I wanted to cup feed they convinced me to use bottles, I was given rules by which I had to "get things done" - waking her three hourly during the day and four hourly overnight, feeding for ten minutes then pumping for ten minutes on both sides, topping her up with expressed milk from the previous feed and then formula, changing her, then settling her to sleep.
The midwives were clear, it all had to be done in an hour so we got enough sleep. I think the hour added more pressure than the lack of sleep! We left the hospital and I called them to book the lactation consultant as soon as we got home. The night before we saw her, I said to my husband "I hoped she helps because I don't think I can keep doing this when you go back to work". She was ten days old.
I will be forever grateful to Margret, she changed the trajectory of my breastfeeding journey. She watched me feed. She gave me tips. She let me cry. Then finally she said, "I think you can do this.... if you want to". Yes! Yes, I said. She gave me permission to stop topping up. Although I don't know why I needed it! She told me only to top up no more than 60ml if my baby really needed it. She said as long as I understood that she might feed anywhere from 1.5 hourly to 5 hourly I could stop waking her (Wow! That changed EVERYTHING!).
Having someone who trusted that I, and my body, could do this, made the world of difference. Suddenly my baby was feeding better (of course she was, she wasn't overfull anymore!), I was feeling better. My milk was 'doing its thing'.
A couple of weeks later I went back to ABA and kept going. I learned a lot and gained some amazing friends. I really think it's allowed me to be the type of parent I need to be for me and my family. And we kept on breastfeeding.
I did all the demand feeding things, and apart from a slightly shallow attachment, it was pretty smooth sailing after that. I felt blessed. I never felt that rush of oxytocin people say they do. But it was important to me, and I kept going. Then suddenly, I had been breastfeeding for 12 months..... remember that goal?
To put this in perspective, my mum didn't enjoy breastfeeding. She fed me for 7 months and even less with each of my three siblings. My sister struggled and switched to formula early on. I had always thought if they can ask for it, well, they don't need it anymore. Yes, I was one of those people (Insert eye roll here). But at 8 months my daughter started signing "milk". She could barely speak but she was definitely still asking for it. Irony hey?!? So I thought… 'Okay. Well. I'll just see what happens'. It was easier to settle her overnight, she still seemed small. She was happy. So we kept on breastfeeding.
I went back to work when she was 18 months old. It was hard. She was breastfeeding often overnight and long awake times. I was exhausted. I started putting in boundaries. "Boobies are asleep" I would say occasionally. But it didn't seem fair to wean her, she was missing me and we were both adjusting to childcare. Finally, at 21 months I couldn't do it anymore and decided that night weaning was right for us. I set a time frame, midnight to six am. We wouldn't breastfeed then. She coped brilliantly. At the same time, she started sleeping longer and in her own bed. So we kept on breastfeeding.
I thought surely she would wean soon. She turned two and we reached the World Health Organisations recommended time frame for breastfeeding. I started to feel a bit embarrassed, but I thought, oh well. It's working. So we kept on breastfeeding.
Then came the unexpected. One Sunday afternoon in Spring, I took a pregnancy test. It was positive! I was in shock. I was offered a new job around the same time. Of course, I took it. It was still early, I wasn't sure what would happen. My nipples were understandably very sensitive. Breastfeeding hurt. A lot. I braced myself for every feed. I was sure she would wean. I put boundaries around it, I got dressed before she would notice and avoided where I could. But we kept on breastfeeding.
At 16 weeks pregnant I was tired, I let her feed during the day again - it was easier to settle her for a nap. My breasts started producing colostrum. She increased her feeds. We kept on breastfeeding.
When she was 2 years 7 months old, we decided it was time to wean her from the dummy. Although we had reduced progressively over the previous 12 months, a final step was needed. It didn't feel right to wean her from "boobie milk" at the same time. So we kept on breastfeeding.
By this time, it was only another two months until her brother was going to arrive. Somewhere around this time I realised she wasn't going to wean. I was staring tandem feeding in the face. I felt mixed. Secretly curious, excited and proud, while terrified and somewhat embarrassed at the same time.
I started expressing colostrum around 28 weeks. I had gestational diabetes, but I would have done it anyway. I wanted to avoid formula top ups if possible. Formula is important in the lives of many babies, but I felt strongly that it was top-ups that made breastfeeding my daughter so much harder. I was desperate to avoid that. This time I wanted to "get it right" - whatever that meant!
My son arrived at 38 weeks and he's my miracle. He completes us. I breastfed my daughter in the hospital, she turned three when her brother was 3 days old. Things weren't perfect at first. He had low blood sugars the first day, but we had expressed colostrum. So, under the paediatrician orders, he had the colostrum along with a bit of glucose and was out of special care that night. By day four he had lost 11% and they wanted me to give formula. But I followed his cues, fed him two hourly and as my milk was transitioning, I managed to hand express breastmilk into medicine cups and top up with that. I am sure my daughter helped the milk come in quicker.
There were some frustrations, I was asked if I was "anti-formula" (I'm definitely not!) and when I said I'd use a syringe to feed him I was told I "wouldn't do that at home". But other nurses were supportive and even with these negative comments I achieved my goal of no formula.
The first few weeks were fantastic. I fed my son on demand, they shared at times, and other times she had that special moment with me by herself, just like he does. At times, she reaches over and holds his hand as they both feed - it's beautiful.
After a while her behaviour became demanding - I needed boundaries around breastfeeding. So, we had a new rule, "Big girls have boobie in the morning and at night". It took a few days. But the transition was good - it felt like she needed the boundaries to feel more secure. Her behaviour is still challenging, but we seem to be in a sweet spot at the moment. We are still breastfeeding!
I've had mixed reactions to tandem feeding. My mother worries I'm "tiring myself out". But she doesn't realise it's easier this way! I'm sure my mother in law is shocked, but she hasn't said anything, I'm not sure she's seen me feed both at the same time! Mostly I'm surrounded by like-minded parents and ABA friends, which helps normalise what was once so strange to me.
I don't know what will happen now. My goal is to feed my son until we are both ready, around three years, as it seems fair they get the same start. He may wean before then, I'm not sure how I'll feel. Who knows how long my daughter will continue to feed, or how long I'll feel comfortable tandem feeding. My goals have kept changing. Every time I reach one, I feel unsure of what I'll do next. So I just go with it. In some ways, it's liberating to let go of the control!
And that's it. That's how I became one of "those women" who breastfed a toddler through pregnancy and tandem feeds a three year old and a four month old. The accidental tandem feeder. Who would have thought!?

The H-1B visa bill has been reintroduced in the United States Congress by two Republican lawmakers of California – Scott Peters and Darrell Issa.
With important changes being proposed to the eligibility requirements, the 'Protect and Grow American Jobs Act' was reintroduced on 4 January.
One of the important changes mooted was a hike in the minimum salary of visa holders of H-1B to $100,000 per year, an increase from the present $60,000 per year. Another proposal was the removal of the exemption of Master's Degree.
According to the lawmakers, the legislation would help in preventing its abuse and also ascertain that eligible for these jobs would be the crème-de-la-crème of talent from all over the world.
The bill tries to plug the alleged abuse of the H-1B visa programme which tried to replace workers from the US with workers from abroad by certain companies.
The Press Trust of India quotes Issa as saying that for America to be in lead again, they had to make sure that it could retain the brightest and best talent in the world. Simultaneously, they had to make sure that such visas are not subjected to abuse by companies by outsourcing and recruiting cheap labour from foreign countries to replace Native Americans, said Issa.
He asserted that the legislation they had introduced addresses both the issues. Issa was of the view that the bill would make sure that America's cherished immigration positions would be used by businesses when the local workforce is not able to fill up certain positions.
A media release was quoted by the news agency as saying that with the hike of the salary to be on par with the average salary of the US for such positions, it would help in cutting down its abuse by getting rid of the profit incentive, and seeing to it that these positions would be available for businesses who really need them.
Peters said that by restricting the H-1B system's abuse, it would protect the jobs of Americans and ascertain that visas are open for innovators to help them maintain competitive staff needed to run their businesses.
If you want to migrate to the US, contact Y-Axis to make sure that your visa is processed meticulously in one of their several offices located all over India.

Take your pick:
1. The question isn't 'What CAN you do?' - it's 'What WILL you do?'
2. Quit talking, and start doing!
3. And, of course, my personal favorite, from my own dad, "Talk is cheap, whiskey costs money!"
What is the message of all three?
You guessed it - stated simply,the difference between dreams and achievement is...
And, implementation is the SUPER-Power you can use to grow your cleaning business!!
That's right, how quickly and efficiently we implement our ideas determines to a great degree, how fast we will improve and how soon we'll begin to see results.
Implement many important ideas quickly and in a short time you're likely to see things change dramatically.
Plod along at a snail's pace as far as implementing ideas and, well, you'll wait be waiting for, what will seem like forever, to see any improvement!
Intensity - the overwhelming sense of urgency that drives you to get things done - is another important force that can quickly separate you from other janitorial businesses.
Intensity, focus and commitment are just a few of the qualities than can drive us to IMPLEMENT. while others simply watch and do nothing.
And this implementing 'habit' has another important benefit - that's right, it can change your day from a slow drudgery to an exciting challenge!!
It's not fun to be struggling. It's not fun to be 'just getting by.'
Fortunately, that doesn't have to be YOU.
You can change your future by changing what you do with your present.
Starting today.... you can commit yourself to taking one good idea at a time, and seeing to it that you get it implemented.
And, don't worry too much about messing things up and making mistakes when you start implementing your ideas - you will.
It's normal. And that's not what matters in the end anyway!
You can always fix mistakes -they're simply an
inconvenience to people who 'make things happen'!
As my wife Jennifer would say, 'If you're getting things done, you're gonna break a few dishes along the way!'
She's smart.
Discover the Guru in YOU!

Live in USA
BioWare is a Canadian video game developer founded in February 1995 by newly
graduated medical doctors Ray Muzyka, Greg Zeschuk, and Augustine Yip. BioWare
is currently owned by American company Electronic Arts. The company specializes
in role-playing video games, and became famous for launching highly praised and
successful licensed franchises, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, and Star
Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. They proceeded to make several other
successful games based on original IP: Jade Empire, the Mass Effect series, and
the Dragon Age series. In 2011, BioWare launched their first MMORPG, Star Wars:
The Old Republic.
Their first game, Shattered Steel, began its life as a proof-of-concept demo, similar to the MechWarrior games. This demo was submitted to ten publishers, seven of whom returned to the company with an offer. A publishing deal for Shattered Steel was eventually signed with Interplay Entertainment. Brent Oster and Trent Oster left BioWare at that time to form Pyrotek Studios, which continued developing Shattered Steel but broke up a year later, with Oster returning to BioWare to finish the game. BioWare's first game was released the following year. Shattered Steel's release was described by IGN as a "modest success" with "decent sales". Two noteworthy points were the deformable terrain (player weapon damage caused craters in the environment) and zone damage (well-placed gunfire could shoot mounted weapons off enemies). A sequel to Shattered Steel was planned for 1998 but never realized.3
BioWare's founders and staff were keenly interested in both computerized and pen-and-paper variants of role-playing games.Their next development project, therefore, was determined to be an RPG. When Interplay financed "exploratory development", BioWare presented the publishers with a demo called Battleground: Infinity. Interplay suggested that the demonstrated gameplay engine would be well-suited to the Dungeons & Dragons license which it had acquired from SSI. Accordingly, Infinity was reworked in line with the Dungeons & Dragons ruleset.3
This resulted in Baldur's Gate, which witnessed a development cycle of three years. During this time, the three doctors continued to practice medicine. However, in the final years of the project, the demands of development prompted Muzyka and Zeschuck to leave medicine and move into full-time development. Augustine Yip decided to continue with his medical practice. Baldur's Gate sold more than two million copies after its release, nearly matching the sales of Diablo. Following the success of Baldur's Gate, the Infinity Engine was used for the games Planescape: Torment and the Icewind Dale series. The success of Baldur's Gate was followed by an expansion pack for the game: Tales of the Sword Coast.4
At this point, BioWare decided to return to the action genre. The company's initial thought was to develop a sequel to Shattered Steel, but eventually a sequel to MDK from Shiny Entertainment was chosen for development.3 MDK 2 was released on PC, Dreamcast, and eventually PlayStation 2, offering BioWare their first taste of developing games for consoles.4 MDK 2 drew the same level of praise as its predecessor but, despite the success, BioWare returned to the Baldur's Gate series for their next project.On September 18, 2012, the next day after the official announcement of the third Dragon Age title,17 both Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk, two of the remaining co-founders of BioWare, simultaneously announced they will be retiring from the gaming industry.1819 After almost a year without a formal head, EA appointed Matthew Bromberg the group general manager of the BioWare label on September 9, 2013. Former CEO and president of Major League Gaming, Bromberg worked as the general manager of BioWare Austin since 2012; after his promotion, Jeff Hickman took over as the general manager in Austin. Aaryn Flynn remains in charge of BioWare Canada (Edmonton and Montreal) and Jon Van Caneghem, the head of Victory Games and Waystone Studio (also parts of the BioWare label). Download

CPS Special Ed Debacle, Subsequent ISBE Call for Independent Monitoring Falls Squarely at Feet of Mayor Rahm Emanuel
From: The Chicago Teachers Union
Mayoral control again proves to be failed policy; state board's findings could be the tip of the iceberg pending additional reports of reductions in services for students who qualify for transitional bilingual services, diverse learning, early childhood programming
CHICAGO, IL —The Chicago Teachers Union issued the following statement following a vote by the Illinois State Board of Education to appoint an independent monitor to oversee Chicago Public Schools' management of special education services, after the Board found that the district committed multiple violations of federal law and endangered thousands of children:
"It is no surprise that the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) blasted Mayor Rahm Emanuel and his handpicked Chicago Board of Education for its intentional violations of state and federal special education laws. The report and its recommendations outline a culture of blatant disregard for the law and the amoral administration of special education services for thousands of our most vulnerable students. The union hopes that ISBE will extend its monitor to oversee the practices of the district's multiple charter school operators to ensure maximum protection for all students, and compliance with the law.
"While an independent monitor is necessary, this penalty for Emanuel's poor stewardship of our school communities does not go far enough. The Chicago Teachers Union demands an immediate end to mayoral control of Chicago's public schools.
"The state's findings are the result of a massive coalition effort among CPS parents, special education advocates and CTU members and staff who have succeeded in holding the district accountable for its wrongdoing. But while we commend ISBE's effort to address these injustices, this is only the beginning. Our union has learned of equally shameful reductions in services for students who qualify for transitional bilingual services, diverse learning and early childhood programming, and believes there are extensive violations in these areas where the district has unlawfully slashed budgets and cut corners.
"Despite the mayor's electoral subterfuge and million dollar campaign gifts, his administration has enacted some of the deepest cuts to school services and personnel in CPS history. Under Emanuel's failed leadership, we have seen more than 60 schools closed in low-income Black and Brown neighborhoods; the number of school nurses fall to 144 for more than 500 schools; illegal and immoral $100 million cuts to special education budgets; the elimination of close to 2,000 teacher positions; and a reduction in the number of social workers by almost 20 percent.
"In addition, already record-high class sizes have continued to balloon, and as the mayor rolls out the red carpet over community voice for a presidential library, he is currently presiding over a district with more than 500 schools, but only 157 school librarians.
"Emanuel is a failed school boss with two independent monitors now overseeing his work—ISBE and the Illinois Attorney General. His school record is abysmal. One of his handpicked school CEOs is serving time in a federal prison. Another handpicked CEO—and personal friend—was forced out of the position for sweeping ethics violations. There has been an unprecedented purging of Black, female educators. Multiple contracts with privatized janitorial companies have left our school communities filthy and infested with rodents.
"The only way forward is an end to the mayor's inequitable and draconian student-based budgeting scheme. Our school communities deserve school budgets that reflect the aspirations of the new state formula.
"Mayoral control is a failed policy. We need an elected, representative school board.
"We need to remove the restrictions on our union's bargaining rights so we can appropriately address the needs of our students.
"And lastly, we need a new mayor."
The Chicago Teachers Union represents nearly 25,000 teachers and educational support personnel working in Chicago Public Schools, and by extension, the nearly 400,000 students and families they serve The CTU is an affiliate of the American Federation of Teachers and the Illinois Federation of Teachers and is the third-largest teachers local in the United States.

What's the Problem with "Help" in International Development?
The Power of Participation
What's the problem with "Help" in International Development? Many well-meaning people want to help the poor in the developing world. However, it is not uncommon for implemented projects to fail once the leaders have left, leaving locals on the ground awaiting the next hand-out.
Successful projects depend on local participation. Steve Corbett and Brian Fikkert write in their seminal book, When Helping Hurts, "Participation is not just a means to an end, but rather a legitimate end in its own right."
ARDF embraces this approach! Let's work together in recognizing the dignity of everyone no matter how poor or marginalized.
The best way for you to have a lasting impact is to work through trusted partners who belong to the community on the ground. We want you to participate in the relationships that we've developed over the years.
In Burundi, a recent clean water project engaged the community from the onset. Bernard Ndihoreye is a local leader of Giteranyi village, one of 28 communities participating. He reports,
"The Anglican Church has been a great help in my locality through this project. My people have taken the implementation as their own, and their eyes have been opened even towards other development works, I testify it because when we call them to the community works held each Saturday, they come in great number and with obedience."
These villagers know the value they bring to the project as well as the value the completed project will have on their daily lives.
All ARDF projects are implemented through trusted partners on the ground, leaders who are part of the local community. These partnerships are based on deep, trusted, relationships. The Christian worldview means we recognize the dignity of everyone no matter how poor or marginalized.
Utilizing local assets ends the cycle of dependency. Through ARDF, you partner with our brothers and sisters around the globe, knowing that every dollar, whether for relief aid or development work, will have a lasting impact.
Thank you!

Carter Young wins Jr. High State Championship, 3 other Sandites place in top 4/
By: Scott Emigh, Editor-in-Chief
Sand Springs sent four wrestlers to the 2016 Junior High All State Tournament in Oklahoma City last month and all four placed.
Carter Young pinned his way through his first three opponents in the 6th & 7th Grade 80 pound bracket, taking down Brady Benham (Collinsville) in 0:28, Aiden Godbehere (Blackwell) in 1:00, and Cooper Evans (Bristow) in 2:34. In the semifinals he was pitted against Cotton Bowl National Champion Jordan Cullors of Collinsville and prevailed by way of 14-3 major decision. The championship match would be a lot closer and Young went into a sudden victory round with Blazik Perez of Broken Arrow, tied 6-6. The Sandite came out with the takedown, however, and claimed his second consecutive Junior High State Championship title.
Blake Jones competed at 92 pounds in the 6th & 7th Grade division and pinned Noah Ballard (Blackwell) in 2:43. He defeated his next opponent, Nathan Dekker, by 8-2 decision, but went down in the quarterfinals 10-2 to Bryce Dauphin of Tuttle. In the consolation bracket he pinned Grant Bunten (Owasso) in 3:45, then repeated his victory over Dekker by a narrow 2-0 decision. In the semifinal he edged out Shaun Muse 8-7, but lost in the finals to Jacob Wright of Southmoore by 2-0 ultimate tie-breaker and took 4th place.
Seth Jones pinned his first two opponents in a combined 49 seconds. Competing at 101 pounds in the Junior High division, he took down Jacob Burdette (Bixby) in 0:24 and Alex Oquinn (Wagoner) in 0:25, then scored a 9-3 decision over David Boucher (Bartlesville) and a 4-0 decision over Ryder Ramsey (Tuttle). In the semifinals he was edged out 2-1 by Branden Elrod (Jenks) but he recovered in the consolation bracket with a 6-4 decision over Cade Waltman and a 5-2 decision over Luke Surber (Tuttle) for a third place finish.
Irwin Portillo, who also saw action on the varsity mat this season, competed at 118 in the Junior High division. He pinned Gye Roedel (Kingfisher) in 1:13, then majored David Mendoza (Catoosa) 13-1. The next few matches were a lot closer as he edged out Timothy Trigg (Deer Creek) 3-2, then took down Josh Parks (Blanchard) 3-1 in a sudden victory round. His streak came to an end in the semifinals when he was pinned in 4:39 by freshman 6A State-Qualifier Spencer Schickram (Ponca City) who would go on to win the tournament. Portillo rebounded quickly with a 16-1 tech fall over Zack Mayes (Comanche), then defeated Roarke Simpson (Southmoore) by 7-4 decision for a third place finish.

On rare occasions, our pup Molly will develop a bit of a limp in one leg. A leg injury is usually due to her joy-filled frolic at the dog park with her buddies, and the limp goes away after a few days. If a limp in a dog or cat lasts for more than two days, then have your veterinarian take a look at the affected paw or leg. Pet owners can help pets for a few days to remedy lameness.
1. Paws: Check out those cute paws to see if something is causing some irritation. Look for a cut on the pad of the paw or a broken toenail. A thorn may be the culprit or even a small shard of glass is causing the limp. A pebble stuck between toes or something sticky may be the problem.
2, Rest: It is just common sense not to take a dog or cat on a walking adventure if he has a bum leg. Let your pet rest up so that the leg that is showing lameness can heal.
3. Cold Pack: You are sure your pet or pets strained a muscle during some overzealous play. You can place a cold pack on the strained muscle to ease the pain and reduce swelling. If the cold-pack treatment does not have your pet walking normally in two days, then off to the vet.
4. Go see a Vet: This is probably the best solution that can be approached when you notice that your dog is exhibiting lameness. A veterinarian knows the appropriate medication to administer to your dog that would ensure its quick recovery. he can also guide you on tips to follow if you notice some other signs or symptoms that could be attributed to lameness.
Warning: Cats who exhibit lameness are usually in big trouble because lameness is rare in cats. Cats who are exhibiting signs of lameness need a vet check right away.

Previously at the ICA - Films
9 Aug 2017
Crossings: Stories of Migration is an ICA-led UK-wide film and events programme supported by the BFI using National Lottery funding and in partnership with the Goethe-Institut and the School of Film & Television, Falmouth University
Winner of the Golden Osella for Best Director at the 1994 Venice Film Festival, Lamerica is one of Gianni Amelio's best known films. Amelio portrays migrants fleeing from Albania to Italy, showing the migrants' hopes and dreams, effects of dictatorship and influences of other countries on Albanian culture and politics. This is one of the first cinematic depictions of mass migration to Italy—a socio-political phenomenon that continues to centre public discourse during the ongoing wave of migration to Europe.

Type: AFA Article
As a result of this financial performance, employees earned $628 million in Profit Sharing for the full year. Profit Sharing payments will be paid out on a separate check on Feb. 27, 2017, through your normal payroll process (i.e., direct deposit or physical check).
Note: Internationally domiciled Flight Attendants in FRA, HKG, LHR or NRT will not receive a separate paycheck but will instead receive the Profit Sharing payment on their regular paycheck closest to the distribution date due to taxation and other regulation issues net of any deferrals to any eligible retirement plan account. Members outside the U.S. who are enrolled in the floor rate program receive appropriate floor exchange rates when Profit Sharing payments are received through the normal payroll process.
Employees will be able to access their individual statements in My Info starting Jan. 27, 2017, once the Profit Sharing payout has been certified by the company's compensation committee. Supervisors & managers will not have access to your individual Profit Sharing statement. You are encourage to print your own statements.
The special election window for Profit Sharing will be open from Jan. 27, 2017, through Feb. 12, 2017, giving all eligible employees the option to defer a portion of their Profit Sharing payout to their eligible retirement plan account.

Dr. John Ratey calls it "collaborative competition." Teachers call it "immersion." Musicians call it a "jam session." We call it "office hours."
Every coach knows this rule: you get better when you practice with others who ARE better. No matter what your niche, you can always learn more.
Our "Office Hours" present an opportunity to discuss coaching concepts and challenges, or consider new ways to coach. What's working for others? How have they solved these problems you're currently facing?
From 2000-2002, Dr. Mel Siff's "Supertraining" group was the pinnacle of professional discussion in fitness.. It was moderated by Siff (20 hours every day!) and contained some huge names: Verkhoshansky, Charlie Francis, Poliquin, Louie Simmons, Dave Tate, Pavel, Gray Cook…and, for a few weeks, Greg Glassman.
The group's primary purpose was debate (not argument, but holding "science" up to the light, and pounding it down to its most irreducible points.) There were some very passionate disagreements, but no one dared leave the group for fear of missing something important (except Greg, that is.)
Social Media has opened the floodgates to these kinds of groups. But LIVE discussion forces cautious consideration before commenting. It reinforces professional behavior.
Our "Office Hours" are open to anyone enrolled in our Silver or Gold Up-Coach programs. Members are invited to one call / month (Silver) or one call / week (Gold) We debate, discuss, and question live via video chat. Moderated by Charity Elliott, each week will start from a different topic but the discussion could go anywhere.

New car registrations are down
THE number of new cars registered in County Wexford last month (April) is down more than 16.5 per cent on the same period last year.
New registrations in the county were down from 2,326 units in April last year to 1,941 in the April just gone, a fall of 16.55 per cent.
Nationally, new car registrations fell by 24 per cent April, compared to the same period in 2016.
'From our recent SIMI/DoneDeal Quarterly Review, we commented that 2017 was proving to be unpredictable for the Motor Industry and the month of April appears to be reflecting this statement. Vehicle registrations for April show a decline in all sectors and across nearly all counties,' said Alan Nolan, the SIMI Director General.'While the economy continues to strengthen, consumers appears to have remained somewhat more cautious to date. That said the Industry is continuing to entice consumers with very strong offers to the degree that even with lower sterling values, as a result of Brexit virtually no new cars have been imported because of the value available here,' said Mr Nolan.
The top selling brands in the year to date were Toyota, Volkswagen, Ford, Hyundai and Nissan.

The jungles of the Amazon and the tundra of the Arctic Circle are just a taste of the places teens are sent on Exiled. The series follows eight of the brattiest My Super Sweet 16 teens who are transplanted to primitive tribes around the world to experience the lifestyle of the teenage girls who live there year round. With MTV enlisting the United Nations and other non-governmental organizations to help determine the indigenous tribes used for the show, the locations are bound to test the teens' determination and strength in this eye-opening program.
