What Did Anne Frank Have Against Americans?
The book I had been reading was so interesting that I had finished it ahead of schedule, and the book I had ordered had not yet arrived. I began searching our empty nest for something to tide me over. What caught my eye in one of my sons' vacated bedroom was the small volume, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. Later I discovered that it had been assigned reading in the eighth grade, and the class was even shown the movie based on the book.
Perfect. It's relatively short, I had never read even one page of it, and here was the chance for me to catch up with the millions of other people who have read it. With my interests and experiences I thought I might pick up on a thing or two that those who are reading it in school, and even those who are assigning it, might not have noticed. I think, maybe, I did.
Where Are the Americans?
Call me chauvinistic, but it struck me that Miss Frank gives us Americans extraordinarily short shrift for all that we did to liberate the people of Western Europe from the clutches of the Nazis. My sensitivity on this issue might have been heightened by the fact that this spring I had my first opportunity to visit Omaha Beach in France and hear a French guide at the huge American cemetery tell the life stories of some of our young people who were buried there.
Now I know that Frank was young and can be excused for not knowing a whole lot—her diary begins when she was 13 and ends when she was 15—but otherwise the writing in Anne's diary seems to be that of one far advanced over a girl in her early teens, especially in matters of politics. The problem, to get right down to it, is that she gives the reader the impression that the British are doing all the fighting against the Germans and that her big hope for being liberated is with those British. One would think that after Dunkirk even the most poorly informed Dutch schoolgirl would know that any hope for their rescue from the Germans lay not with the British, but with the far more powerful Americans, but not, apparently, Miss Frank.
I have gone through the book and noted every mention of the Americans and the British in the war effort. The United States officially entered the war in December of 1941 in the wake of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, but we did not get into actual land fighting on the Western front when we landed troops in North Africa in support of the British on November 8, 1942. The diary begins on June 14, 1942. `
October 9, 1942
Just recently…a poor old crippled Jewess was sitting on her doorstep; she had been told to wait there by the Gestapo, who had gone to fetch a car to take her away. The poor old thing was terrified by the guns that were shooting at English planes overhead, and by the glaring beams of the searchlights.
November 9, 1942
The biggest surprise came from Mr. Van Daan when, at one o'clock, he announced that the British had landed in Tunis, Algiers, Casablanca, and Oran. "This is the beginning of the end," everyone was saying, but Churchill, the British Prime Minister, who had probably heard that same thing in England said: "This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Do you see the difference? There is certainly reason for optimism. Stalingrad, the Russian town which they've already been defending for three months, still hasn't fallen into German hands…
P.S. The news has just come over the radio that Algiers has fallen. Morocco, Casablanca, and Oran have been in British hands for several days. Now we're waiting for Tunis.
January 13, 1943
And every night thousands of planes fly over Holland and go to German towns, where the earth is so plowed up by their bombs, and every hour hundreds of thousands of people are killed in Russia and Africa. No one is able to keep out of it, the whole globe is waging war and although it is going better for the Allies, the end is not yet in sight.
April 27, 1943
The Carlton Hotel is smashed to bits. Two British planes loaded with incendiary bombs fell right on top of the "Offiziersheim" (officers' club). The whole Vijzelstraat-Singel corner is burned down. The air raids on German towns are growing in strength every day. We don't have a single quiet night.
May 18, 1943
I witnessed a terrific air battle between German and British planes. Unfortunately a couple of the Allies had to jump from burning machines. Our milkman, who lives in Halfweg, saw four Canadians sitting by the roadside, one of them spoke fluent Dutch. He asked the milkman to give him a light for his cigarette and told him that the crew had consisted of six men. The pilot was burned to death, and their fifth man had hidden himself somewhere. The German police came and fetched the four perfectly fit men. I wonder how they happened to have such clear brains after that terrifying parachute trip.
July 11, 1943
I am really curious to know what will come of it all, but I don't think the plan will come off because the British have landed in Sicily now and Daddy is once again hoping for a "quick finish."
August 3, 1943
Political news excellent. In Italy the Fascist party has been banned. The people are fighting the Fascists in many places—even the army is actually taking part in the battle. Can a country like that wage war against England?
August 18, 1943
Mrs. Van Daan searches for another subject. "I say, Putti, why aren't there any English air raids now?"
"Because the weather is bad, Kerli.
"But it was lovely yesterday, and they didn't fly then either."
"Let's not talk about it."
September 10, 1943 (First mention of Americans)
Last Wednesday evening, 8 September, we sat around listening to the seven o'clock news and the first thing we heard was: "Here follows the best news of the whole war. Italy has capitulated!" Italy's unconditional surrender! The Dutch program from England began at quarter past eight. "Listeners, an hour ago, I had just finished writing the chronicle of the day when the wonderful news of Italy's capitulation came in. I can tell you that I have never deposited my notes in the wastepaper basket with such joy!" "God Save the King," the American national anthem, and the "Internationale" were played. As always, the Dutch program was uplifting, but not too optimistic.
February 3, 1944
All the newspapers are full of the invasion and are driving people mad by saying that "In the event of the English landing in Holland, the Germans will do all they can to defend the country; if necessary they will resort to flooding." With this, maps have been published, on which the parts of Holland that will be under water are marked. As this applies to large parts of Amsterdam, the first question was, what shall we do if the water in the streets rises to one meter? The answers given by different people vary considerably.
(Also on this date, a debate between men in the Frank "secret annex" and a contact outside the annex, Henk Van Santen):
S.A.: "We have all been through it ourselves, first in Germany, and then here. And what is going on in Russia?"
H: "You mustn't include the Jews. I don't think anyone knows what is going on in Russia. The English and the Russians are sure to exaggerate things for propaganda purposes, just like the Germans."
S.A.: "Out of the question. The English have always told the truth over the wireless. And I suppose they do exaggerate the news, the facts are bad enough anyway, because you can't deny that many millions of peace-loving people were just simply murdered or gassed in Poland and Russia."
March 27, 1944
Just as if the German Wehrmacht news bulletins and the English B.B.C. were not enough, they have now introduced "Special Air-Raid Announcements." In one word, magnificent; but on the other hand often disappointing, too. The British are making a non-stop business of their air attacks, with the same kind of zest as the Germans make a business of lying. The radio therefore goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten, and often eleven o'clock in the evening…
Ugh! It gets so boring, and it's quite a job not to become a dull old stick oneself. Politics can't do much more harm to the parents!
I must mention one shining exception—a speech by our beloved Winston Churchill is quite perfect.
March 29, 1944
How scared the ladies are during the air raids. For instance, on Sunday, when 350 British planes dropped half a million kilos of bombs on Ijmuiden, how the houses trembled like a wisp of grass in the wind, and who knows how many epidemics now rage.
May 16, 1944
Just for a change, as we haven't talked about them for so long, I want to tell you a little discussion that went on between Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan yesterday.
Mrs. Van Daan: "The Germans are sure to have made the Atlantic Wall very strong indeed, they will certainly do all in their power to hold back the English. It's amazing how strong the Germans are!"
Mr. Van Daan: "Oh, yes, incredibly."
Mrs. Van Daan: "Ye-es."
Mr. Van Daan: "The Germans are so strong they're sure to win the war in the end, in spite of everything!"
Mrs. Van Daan: "It's quite possible, I'm not convinced of the opposite yet." (Why not, if you leave the Americans out of the mix? ed.)
May 22, 1944
The invasion still hasn't come yet; it's no exaggeration to say that all Amsterdam, all Holland, yes, the whole west coast of Europe, right down to Spain, talks about the invasion day and night, debates about it, and makes bets on it, and…hopes.
The suspense is rising to a climax. By no means everyone we regarded as "good" Dutch have stuck to their faith in the English; by no means everyone thinks the English bluff a masterly piece of strategy, oh no, the people want to see deeds at last, great, heroic deeds. Nobody sees beyond his own nose, no one thinks that the English are fighting for their own land and their own people, everyone thinks that it's their duty to save Holland, as quickly and as well as they can.
What obligations have the English towards us? How have the Dutch earned the generous help that they seem so explicitly to expect? Oh no, the Dutch will have made a big mistake, the English, in spite of all their bluff, are certainly no more to blame than all the other countries, great and small, which are not under occupation. The English really won't offer us their apologies, for even if we do reproach them for being asleep during the years the other countries, especially those bordering Germany, also slept. We shan't get anywhere by following an ostrich policy. England and the whole world have seen that only too well now, and that is why, one by one, England, no less than the rest, will have to make heavy sacrifice.
No country is going to sacrifice its men for nothing and certainly not in the interests of another. England is not going to do that either. The invasion, with liberation and freedom, will come sometime, but England and America will appoint the day, not all the occupied countries put together.
June 6, 1944
"This is D-Day," came the announcement over the English news and quite rightly, "this is the day." The invasion has begun!
The English gave the news at eight o'clock this morning: Calais, Boulougne, Le Havre, and Cherbourg, also the Pas de Calais (as usual), were heavily bombarded. Moreover, as a safety measure for all occupied territories, all people who live within a radius of thirty-five kilometers from the coast are warned to be prepared for bombardments. If possible, the English will drop pamphlets one hour beforehand.
According to German news, English parachute troops landed on the French coast, English landing craft are in battle with the German Navy, says the B.B.C.
We discussed it over the "Annexe" breakfast at nine o'clock: Is this just a trial landing like Dieppe two years ago?
English broadcast in German, Dutch, French, and other languages at ten o'clock: "The invasion has begun!" that means the "real" invasion. English broadcast in German at eleven o'clock, speech by Supreme Commander, General Dwight Eisenhower. (An Englishman? ed.)
The English news at twelve o'clock in English: "This is D-day," General Eisenhower said to the French people: "Stiff fighting will come now, but after this the victory. The year 1944 is the year of complete victory; good luck."
English news in English at one o'clock (translated): 11,000 planes stand ready, and are flying to and fro non-stop, landing troops and attacking behind the lines; 4000 landing boats, plus small craft, are landing troops and materiel between Cherbourg and Le Havre incessantly. English and American troops are already engaged in hard fighting. Speeches by Gerbrandy, by the Prime Minister of Belgium, King Haakon of Norway, De Gaulle of France, the King of England, and last, but not least, Churchill.
June 9, 1944
Super news of the invasion. The Allies have taken Bayeux, a small village on the French coast, and are now fighting for Caen. It's obvious that they intend to cut off the peninsula where Cherbourg lies. Every evening war correspondents give news from the battle front, telling us of the difficulties, courage, and enthusiasm of the army; they manage to get hold of the most incredible stories. Also some of the wounded who are already back in England again came to the microphone. The air force is up all the time in spite of the miserable weather. We heard over the B.B.C. that Churchill wanted to land with the troops on D-Day, however, Eisenhower and the other generals managed to get him out of the idea. Just think of it, what pluck he has for such an old man—he must be seventy at least.
June 13, 1944
Yesterday, Churchill, Smuts, Eisenhower, and Arnold visited French villages which have been conquered and liberated. The torpedo boat that Churchill was in shelled the coast. He appears, like so many men, not to know what fear is—makes me envious!
It's difficult for us to judge from our secret redoubt how people outside have reacted to the news. Undoubtedly people are pleased that the idle (?) English have rolled up their sleeves and are doing something at last. Any Dutch people who still look down on the English, scoff at England and her government of old gentlemen, call the English cowards, and yet hate the Germans deserve a good shaking. Perhaps it would put some sense int their wooly brains.
The Impression
Two main thoughts are likely to come to those who have read the foregoing carefully. One is that the primary source of information on the progress of the war for Anne and her family was the British Broadcasting Company. She makes numerous references to its radio broadcasts. That might explain her heavy bias towards the British, one might think.
But think about it a bit more. To be sure, if the British are good at anything, it is propaganda. They are the absolute masters of it. It would hardly have been in their interests for them to downplay the role of the Americans in the war. To the contrary, if anything it was in their interests to exaggerate what the Americans were doing. As we noted at the beginning, after Dunkirk the confidence of the occupied Western Europeans in the British would have been at low ebb, as would German fear of them. We can see it in some of the passages that show the attitude of many of Anne's fellow Dutch toward them. The vastly stronger Americans were the big brother with the big stick. British war interests were best served by persuading both friend and foe that it was the Americans who were doing most of the fighting and because of that there was no way the Allies could lose. The British would have been very foolish not to have played that card for all that it was worth, and, as we suggested, when it comes to propaganda they are anything but foolish.
The second thought that anyone with the least bit of an open mind is certain to have had is that none of this sounds like anything we have ever heard from a person in his or her early teens. To say that she was just an extraordinarily precocious girl sounds to me a lot like rationalization. If she was so politically sharp and tuned in to what was going on with the war, how did she manage to overlook the overwhelming importance of the Americans in it?
For those who have no skepticism at all that this was the work of a young girl, I present, in its entirety, her reaction to the attempted assassination of Adolf Hitler, which occurred shortly after Anne celebrated her 15th birthday:
July 21, 1944
Now I am getting really hopeful, now things are going well at last. Yes, really, they're going well! Super news! An attempt has been made on Hitler's life and not even by Jewish communists or English capitalists this time, but by a proud German general, and what's more, he's a count, and still quite young. The Fuhrer's life was saved by Divine Providence and, unfortunately, he managed to get off with just a few scratches and burns. A few officers and generals who were with him have been killed and wounded. The chief culprit was shot.
Anyway, it certainly shows that there are lots of officers and generals who are sick of the war and would like to see Hitler descend into a bottomless pit. When they've disposed of Hitler, their aim is to establish a military dictator, who will make peace with the Allies, then they intend to rearm and start another war in about twenty years' time. Perhaps the Divine Power tarried on purpose in getting him out of the way, because it would be much easier and more advantageous to the Allies if the impeccable Germans kill each other off; it'll make less work for the Russians and the English and they'll be able to begin rebuilding their own towns all the sooner.
But still, we're not that far yet, and I don't want to anticipate the glorious events too soon. Still, you must have noticed, this is all sober reality and that I'm in quite a matter-of-fact mood today; for once, I'm not jabbering about high ideals. And what's more, Hitler has even been so kind as to announce to his faithful, devoted people that from now on everyone in the armed forces must obey the Gestapo, and that any soldier who knows that one of his superiors was involved in this low, cowardly attempt may shoot the same on the spot, without court-martial.
What a perfect shambles it's going to be. Little Johnnie's feet begin hurting him during a long march, he's snapped at by his boss, the officer. Johnnie grabs his rifle and cries out: "You wanted to murder the Fuhrer, so there's your reward." One bang and the proud chief who dared to tick off little Johnnie has passed into eternal life (or is it eternal death?). In the end, whenever an officer finds himself up against a soldier, or having to take the lead, he'll be wetting his pants from anxiety, because the soldiers will dare to say more than they do. Do you gather a bit what I mean, or have I been skipping too much from one subject to another? I can't help it; the prospect that I may be sitting on school benches next October makes me feel far too cheerful to be logical! Oh, dearie me, hadn't I just told you that I didn't want to be too hopeful? Forgive me, they haven't given me the name "little bundle of contradictions" all for nothing!
I should say!
The Explanation
But what could this apparent inauthenticity of the diary and the overplaying of the British role in the war at the expense of the Americans have to do with one another? See the following passage from Robert Faurisson's interview of Anne's father, Otto Frank, the man who brought the diary forward and had it published in 1947:
I only once saw him lose his temper and show himself to be uncompromising and violent; that was in regard to the Zionist cause, which must seem sacred to him. It was in that manner that he declared to me that he no longer even sets foot on the soil of France because, in his opinion, France is no longer interested in anything except Arab oil and doesn't care about Israel.
In 1947, the fate of the Zionist cause lay completely in the hands of the British, who had been given control over Palestine by the League of Nations in the wake of World War I. To the proper fanatic Zionist, British public opinion meant everything at the end of World War II, when the diary was most likely put together. There was no obvious reason at that point to curry favor with the Americans. That currying favor was what the book was all about is also indicated by the fact that the diary sounds almost like it was written by a Christian instead of a Jew, much less a Jew who had attended a Jewish school. The Franks make a big fuss over Christmas and even Easter and Good Friday, but the only Jewish holiday we hear about is Chanukah, and that is only because it came so close to St. Nicholas Day on December 7, 1942. Important Jewish holidays like Passover, Rosh Hashanah, and Yom Kippur are never mentioned.
The first light and somewhat equivocal plug for Zionism is in the entry for June 30, 1942, before the family had gone to the secret annex. At that point the notion of establishing a state just for Jews in the already heavily populated Palestine was still a hard sell with a lot of people, not the least of whom were the Jews themselves. It is Anne's crush of the moment named Harry speaking:
From now on I shall be free on Wednesday evenings. Officially I go to wood-carving lessons to please my grandparents, in actual fact I go to a meeting of the Zionist Movement. I'm not supposed to, because my grandparents are very much against the Zionists. I'm by no means a fanatic, but I have a leaning that way and find it interesting. But lately it has become such a mess there that I'm going to quit, so next Wednesday will be my last time.
On occasion the diary also mentions older sister Margot's plan to immigrate to Palestine after the war, but the slyest Zionist plug is in one sentence on May 11, 1944: "Next week I have got to read Palestine at the Crossroads and the second part of [Galileo] Galilei."
Palestine at the Crossroads is a very pro-Zionist book written in 1937 by a Scotsman by the name of Ernest Main. * His principal argument is that Jews would bring modernization to Palestine's agriculture, permitting the region to sustain a much larger population. It is a most unlikely choice of reading material for a 15-year-old girl. One can't say that it was a case of that or nothing among the limited books available in their hiding place because she speaks of outsiders bringing them books from the library. One might wonder if there was even a Dutch or German translation of the book available, and it is highly doubtful that Anne would have been able to read it in English.
Britain was the battleground for the Zionist cause at the time. Jewish terrorists had assassinated anti-Zionist Secretary of State for the Colonies Lord Moyne in 1944. Jewish extremists had bombed the King David Hotel and they had sent letter bombs attempting to kill Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin in 1946.
Those, and the ongoing attacks on British soldiers and officials in Palestine, were the Zionist bullets to the British head. It looks for all the world to this writer that the Diary of a Young Girl was the soft sell aimed at the British heart.
Having served that early purpose, the diary has since evolved into one of Zionism's biggest worldwide hard sells. And as I read the Teacher's Guide for the book, assigned in countless classrooms around the world, it does, indeed, appear that I have noticed some things at the very heart of the book's message that have escaped the attention of these putative experts on The Diary of Anne Frank.
* Zionism-advocacy book though it might be, it still has some useful insights that look quite good in retrospect, for instance:
It is the declared Zionist policy that the Jews and the Arabs should co-operate together in the development of Palestine without the domination of either by the other at any time now or in the future. Not only do the Arabs not believe this, but it is their declared policy that they must remain in the majority and that this majority must be expressed in any Legislative Council that may at any time in the future come into existence. (pp. 266-267)
It's pretty clear which of the two groups was seeing things, or at least telling things, straight in the 1930s. See also how this passage jibes with the British documents on Palestine assembled by Doreen Ingrams.

A correspondent has informed me that the Palestine at the Crossroads mentioned in the diary was not the one written by Ernest Main but one of the same title written by the much better known writer Ladislas Farago. "It makes a difference," he writes, "because Farago's book is not a Zionist diatribe like Main's. It is a journalistic account of both Arab and Jewish settlements in Palestine in 1936. It is a valuable and impartial account (perhaps as much as one could be) that was well received at the time. If one were to want to know what it was like to live in Palestine, it would be an excellent source, which may account for Anne's interest in the book."
In response, it appears that the reader is right in that I have the wrong book. It was the first one to come up in a Google search of the title, and it didn't occur to me to continue searching to see if there were another book from the period with the same title. In fact, the English title of Farago's book was Palestine on the Eve. Sylvia Patterson Iskander lists it in the appendix to her article, "Anne Frank's Reading," by its Dutch title, which she translates as "Palestine at the Crossroads," although she has Farago's first name as "Laszlo."
Whether or not the reader has characterized the book accurately, though, is another matter. Here is the entire brief review at Kirkus:
A journalist's account of several months spent in Palestine, a growing storm center, where Jew and Arab are struggling for land which each feels to be rightfully his. The author is content to sketch briefly what he has seen without drawing conclusions or offering constructive views on conditions. He gives a better picture of the Jew than of the Moslem in that it is a fuller picture and a more intimate one. The influx of hundreds of rootless families who are as yet disintegrated in their return to the home of their forefathers. [sic] On the whole the book is flimsy. The author travels here and there -- meets this potentate and that, but seems to lack any real insight into either race or their respective problems.
One might also take issue with the claim that it is "not a Zionist diatribe." The book can be found online here. It begins:
On April 15th, 1936, revolver shots were fired in Jaffa. Eight Jews who had unsuspectingly walked over from the neighbouring Jewish town of Tel Aviv on the way to their places of employment, returned to Tel Aviv lifeless on stretchers. The shots were not quite unexpected. For years, unrest amongst the Arab population of Palestine had been brewing; The Arabs regard the Jews as intruders and accuse England of breaking her promises to them.
On page 121 we have this passage:
Out of the low, dark houses the men now brought their wives. Hitherto I had seen only veiled Arab women, but on the land the veil is not worn, and so at last I was in a position to form an opinion of their aesthetic qualities. When I saw their unveiled faces I came to the conclusion that the veils were, after all, an improvement! Amongst the eighty women and girls I could hardly discover a single one with the least claim to beauty.
And in the chapter entitled "The Father of Zionism" we have this passage on pp. 130-131:
…In the campaign which Jews carry on for Palestine no weapons are employed; the opportunities of livelihood for the Jews are not created by ruthless might, but bought with money. Here a land is being built up in the same way that hospitals in England are maintained — by charity…With this money are obtained the requisites for a Jewish colony; lands are bought and settled.
From my admittedly cursory review of the book I can't help but conclude that a devoted Zionist would be more than happy for someone to read the Farago book and that my mistaking the Ernest Main book for it does no real damage to my point, that is, that it might have well been thrown in gratuitously as a Zionist plug.

The inaugural Birmingham Law Society (BLS) Debating Competition final was held this month at Squires, Sanders and Dempsey with a team from The College of Law becoming the first winners of this new and exciting inter-educational competition.
Student teams from the University of Birmingham were up against a team from The College of Law for the final and they debated the question 'Is Birmingham the UK's second city?'
The competition, sponsored by Birmingham barristers chambers St Philips and No5 Chambers, has been launched as an opportunity for students to develop their debating skills.
Professor Bernardette Griffin, from The College of Law said: "Debating skills are an important element of being a lawyer and also a business professional. There has been a great deal of coverage regarding Birmingham's position as the second city and each team attacked the subject with vigour and enthusiasm."
The competition began in the autumn within the three Birmingham based universities – University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University and Aston University plus The College of Law. The best teams from each institution competed in the semi finals when they debated whether prisoners should have the right to vote.
(L-R) Hannah Couchman, Patrick Croft and Alex Walker - The College of Law's winning team - with Dean Parnell, Birmingham Law Society (in front)
Dean Parnell, President of the BLS, said: "Birmingham Law Society commenced this initiative to try to engage more with local university students and bridge the divide between being a student in this city and being a lawyer. This has been a great event and we are in the process of launching student membership for all law undergraduates.

"I would like to thank leading legal figures in the Midlands who supported this competition and to those who gave up their time to judge the semi finals and the final. We certainly hope to have this competition as an annual event and we are also exploring the possibility of a national event run in connection with other local law societies where each region puts forward their best team."

Deborah Canty was born in Philadelphia, PA. She credits her character, passion, and discovery of her purpose to the experiences and lessons she learned as the eldest child of missionary parents living in West Africa.
Deborah learned fortitude and resilience skills from the Liberians as seen in the example of President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf. Her parents who were leaders exposed her to strong management and leadership skills. Her family returned to Philadelphia, PA when she was 12 where she attended and graduated from the Philadelphia Public School System.
In her career as an attorney both in the corporate arena and for DHS, Deborah has developed relationships, established rapport and built credibility with judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, child advocates, social workers, and court personnel alike.

It takes a village is something we hear constantly when it comes to raising children. Yet, in so many ways, the landscape of today's village is quite different from when our parents were kids or even when we ourselves were children. In a time when people are busier than ever, more parents are working or living far from extended family, we have found an alternative to the common village, a virtual village.
Parents have discovered a lovely online community that gives support and encouragement that a lot of new moms need, especially in those first few months. I know I used the online community for everything, from what baby gear to get, to feeding, to general support for a new twin mom. Recently, I found a great member of that virtual village in The Baby Cubby.
The Baby Cubby
Along with an online store, The Baby Cubby works hard to be a supportive resource for moms and dads navigating the waters of parenthood. They are a team of moms and dads who, through their blog and social media, work very hard to provide support, encouragement, tips and advice to everyone joining team parenthood. For their online store, they only choose products they have fully researched and have the utmost confidence in. The best part, they will price match, so you are guaranteed to get the best deal. Which really comes in handy for us twin parents when more often than not we are buying two of everything.
There are so many items on their site that I too loved and use. So, I wanted to share my recommendations for parents of newborn twins from The Baby Cubby
The Maxi Cosi Mico Infant Car Seat is by far one of my favorite car seats. It's what we used for our twins and has the three most important features when shopping for a car seat. It's lightweight, which is useful when carrying two, the weight requirement begins at 4lbs, also a plus as many twins are born on the smaller side and has a high safety rating.
We have the Bumbleride Indie Twin Double Stroller and I love it! It is super easy to maneuver and fits through every door frame we have needed to get through. In my opinion, when going for a side by side double, this is the one.
The best double umbrella on the market right now is the UppaBaby G-Link. Lightweight, great canopies and storage (not common with umbrellas), adjustable seats allowing newborns to ride and easy to maneuver.
I love the Mamaroo because it serves as both a swing and chair. We used it to soothe the boys and as a seat when we started solids. It has a smaller footprint than most swings and it lightweight, making it easy to move from room to room. Just make sure you get the infant insert for newborns.
I might have used my Skip Hop Wet Bag more than anything else and am still using it with my toddlers. Given how many times you are changing wet pants or shirts when you are out, this bag gets its daily use. And I never have to worry about my own bag smelling or getting wet.
We used Amber Teething Necklaces on both the boys and went through the teething phase without too much fuss. I definitely recommend these to help with those sore gums and fussy babies.
I feel like there isn't anything of Fridababy's that I don't use and love. The Nose Frieda is still a life saver, the Windi was incredibly helpful in our early months and the Fever Thermometer Sensor provides huge relief, especially since fevers are a scary but common occurrence with babies and kids.
I wanted to get the boys used to wearing sunnies early so we got them Babiators. They are incredibly rad, with cool designs, great sun protection and the best part is if you lose them they give you a free replacement pair.
I have a big concern with plastic and considering babies put everything in their mouths I tried to find a lot of toys that were wooden. The Baby Cubby has some great teethers and toys aimed to help them with motor skills that are made of wood and still colorful.
When it comes to baby gear there is so much out there to choose from that it is nice to find places that you can trust will offer the what is best for your baby at the best price. The Baby Cubby works hard to provide that for parents.

Just heard on CNBC.
Germany has supposedly said to immigrants that once they're in they won't be forced back out. That is what's leading to the craziness with the trains. Meanwhile Ms. Merkel is saying that each nation must take hundreds of thousands of immigrants and they're getting pushback.
The analyst on CNBC is saying that this could be the biggest threat to the EU since its birth. He went on to say that difficulties with integration into European society would see generations of tension.
Sounds like the EU is in for a rough ride. Popcorn please!

E.S.P. (Energy Stimulant Pre-Workout) is the most effective, high-energy, no crash, fast-acting pre-workout stimulant on the market. E.S.P. offers laser sharp focus and explosive power in every scoop.*
- Strength Training
- Sports Conditioning
- High-Intensity Training
- General Fitness
E.S.P. is a high-potency stimulant driven pre-workout product designed to deliver maximal energy while controlling focus. Using a specialized scoop, you determine the amount you use so that you can dial in your need based on the workout you are doing. Because of the scientifically engineered combination of ingredients, E.S.P. provides laser-like focus without the high stimulant post-crash drop off commonly seen in other pre-workout products. With E.S.P., getting amped up and powering through workouts has never been so easy.*
What is E.S.P.?
How does E.S.P. work?
The rapid absorbing ingredients in E.S.P. will provide a burst of stimulant energy exciting your nervous system while giving you clear focus as to the task at hand. Along the way during your workout, you will notice your energy does not drop off, giving you more power with less fatigue allowing you to be more productive, work harder and stronger, and give you the feeling of being energized when you finally finish your workout.*
What kind of results can I expect from using E.S.P.?
What's inside E.S.P.?
The combined ingredients within E.S.P. utilize stimulants to provide mental energy, alertness, improve reaction time, and help to increase fuel mobilization to power your muscles. To prevent over-stimulation and control anxiety, nootropics are included to improve neurotransmitter activity giving you better coordination and focus during your workouts. Beta Alanine, a proven buffer of cellular metabolic waste is included to ensure that you have more energy and less fatigue during your workout. And finally, key minerals and electrolytes, have been added using a specific bonding to glycerol and gluconic acid to help improve uptake, maintain hydration, and give the appearance of fuller muscles. In all, E.S.P. has taken all the aspects of the pre-workout dilemmas, conquered them, and combined specific ingredients in to one powerful product.*
What are the benefits of the Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium and Sodium?
These electrolytes assist in the electrolyte balance between the intracellular and extracellular environment. In particular, the maintenance of precise osmotic gradients of electrolytes is important. Such gradients affect and regulate the hydration of the body as well as blood pH, and are critical for nerve and muscle function. Both muscle tissue and neurons are considered electric tissues of the body. Muscles and neurons are activated by electrolyte activity between the extracellular fluid or interstitial fluid, and intracellular fluid. Electrolytes may enter or leave the cell membrane through specialized protein structures embedded in the plasma membrane called ion channels. For example, muscle contraction is dependent upon the presence of calcium (Ca2+), sodium (Na+), and potassium (K+). Without sufficient levels of these key electrolytes, muscle weakness or severe muscle contractions may occur.*
Why is E.S.P. better than other pre-workout formulas?
Most pre-workout products simply utilize caffeine to give you stimulant energy. E.S.P. uses specific forms of stimulants to reduce the drop-off effect but also to provide a more constant supply of stimulant. Additionally, to control for anxiety and help you focus on your task, E.S.P. utilizes specific ingredients, ensuring you will maintain your power output through the entire workout. And finally, E.S.P. is the only pre-workout product on the market that allows you to dose according to your own tolerance level which means you can dial in the exact amount you need based on your energy level prior to your workout.*
How do I take E.S.P. for optimal results?
For optimal results, take E.S.P. 15 to 30 minutes before you work out. Since absorption and utilization of ingredients varies per individual, keep track of your peak energy point during your workout and then consume according to your needs. E.S.P. can be used to provide a general boost during the day instead of other stimulant rich drinks and when dosed properly may even allow you to be more productive!*
Do I need to "load" or "cycle" E.S.P.?
You do not need to load or cycle E.S.P., simply use it as you feel the need to improve overall energy, mental focus and drive for your workouts. While E.S.P. does not contain any ingredients that would alter your body's ability to function normally, it is always advised to take a week or two off from supplements every 12 to 16 weeks just to allow your body a chance to reset itself.*
Can I take E.S.P. with other products?
You can take E.S.P. with other Metabolic Nutrition products including Protizyme, CGP, TAG, Tri-Pep, Phenolox and Hydravax or any products that do not contain stimulants unless your tolerance has been well-assessed. If you dose E.S.P. maximally, you should be careful not to take any other stimulants within 3 hours of consuming E.S.P.*
Are there any known side effects when using E.S.P.?
Like all stimulant-based products, you need to assess your tolerance to prevent over-stimulation, especially late in the evening. E.S.P. may cause a tingling sensation due to specific ingredients, but it is not harmful, nor does it reduce power output and muscle function. Like all supplements, you should consult your physician prior to using E.S.P. as well as read and understand the entire label to make sure that you are not allergic to or intolerant to specific ingredients.*
Why should I use E.S.P.?
If you want to have more energy, more drive, and more focus before and during your workouts, then E.S.P., when dosed properly, can take your training up several notches. Those looking to get more out of their workouts and train harder and longer will find E.S.P. will deliver with maximum fire-power.*
Who should use E.S.P.?
Anyone looking to have more energy during their workouts or during the day. Children should not consume E.S.P., nor should pregnant women or persons with existing health conditions that prohibit use of high-stimulant products and ingredients. All persons, should assess their own tolerance before using the maximum single dose.*
Can women use E.S.P.?
What does E.S.P. taste like?
Are there any scientific studies to support E.S.P.?
There are several studies supporting each of the ingredients in E.S.P. as well as studies showing the effects of combining several ingredients. The scientific team at Metabolic Nutrition is constantly testing ingredients and analyzing research, as well as each product is fully tested using trial groups to ascertain efficacy and potency of the end product. All products are batch tested, and follow GMP guidelines both in the developing and manufacturing processes.*
10 reviews for E.S.P.
One of the best pre workouts I've had in a long time…and I've tried a lot of them
It's definitely the best pwo I've taken in awhile, this review is really a 5. It just did give me a headache while lifting when i bumped up to 1 and 1/2 to 2 small scoops. But the focus level I have is off the charts on this preworkout. Highly recommend.
Incredible intense pre-workout i feel so pumped up , hightend senses , just amazing stuff !!! absolute must get !!!!!
I was a loyal GAT user till the guy at my supplement shop gave me a sample of ESP Wow I took the whole sample and had one of the best workouts and pumps ever bought a tub of ESP and CGP today it was so good bought the creatine blend too
Best pre workout iv ever taken. no crash. last for around 2 hours, and makes you feel like you could do another workout on your average workout. I recommend it to anyone that is looking for a intense pump.
Best PWO I've taken to date. Increased focus, stamina, and outrageous pump! The effects stay with you for hours, it's great!
Definitely one of the best pre-workout supplements that I've ever had. Gives me intense focus and stamina. Makes me want to stay in the gym forever. A must have
Probably my favorite workout the taste is great and the endurance is amazing. This will defiantly get you through a tough workout and it helps burn off stubborn fats! This helped me with my fitness goals!
The best pre workout I have had, and I have tried them all. A friend told me about the product and I have been using them ever since. Smooth, no jitters, but delivers an explosive kick while lifting
The recommended dose for E.S.P. can vary, so first-time users should take one small scoop before working out and assess tolerance.
The double-sided scoop allows you to control dose size, with the large scoop being the maximum dose at any one time. Additionally, E.S.P. can be used to provide energy during the day if you need a little extra push.*

I have definitely noticed an increase in battery drain since iOS 6.1 came out a few short weeks ago. At first it seemed subtle. Then it seemed to pick and up and be obvious. Yesterday I went from 100% to 0% in about 6 hours. Not normal. There are some technical reasons about calendars and exchange servers that caused this -which you probably don't care about.
Here's an article explaining the back story of the update from the iSource.com website.
Among our Scale Faster (pcCentral) users, I know there are quite a few iOS device users out there. We just had one of our customers add iPads for their field team members a couple weeks ago and the more customer meetings we have, the more frequently I see iPhones and iPads.
So do yourself and your battery a favor – and apply this update. I'd love to hear back if this changes your battery life.

Acupuncture for Menstrual Problems
Many women regard their periods as normal even though they may experience pain, excessive bleeding, an irregular cycle or pre-menstrual tension. The term 'menstrual problems' covers a wide range of conditions, such as painful periods, heavy or scanty periods, flooding or trickling periods, irregular periods, early or late periods and bleeding between periods.
In orthodox medicine, women are often prescribed the contraceptive pill or coil for heavy periods. Whilst these may help the immediate symptoms in some cases, they act as a suppressant on the overall system and there is some evidence that they are linked to serious diseases such as cancer. If these suppressants are discontinued, symptoms may return, and can do so even more strongly than before.
Menstrual Problems and TCM
In TCM, diagnosis and treatment of menstrual problems and related conditions is based upon an in-depth consultation which involves identifying the causative factors of the condition. Treatment is based upon a number of factors including physical and emotional signs and symptoms. During a treatment, the practitioner will work with the patient to balance their body and mind. For example, much attention is given to the detail of the patient's lifestyle, diet, exercise and previous history. Other practices, such as Chi Kung and T'ai Chi, flowing forms of exercise that are designed to strengthen and regulate the circulation of Qi throughout the body by harmonising the body, mind and breath, may also be recommended to enable the patient to relieve their pain and enable them to manage their health in a constructive way.
Menstrual problems may be caused by overwork, emotional stress, excessive physical work, exposure to cold, too many children too close together, surgery etc. When diagnosing the cause of menstruation problems, the clinician will discuss a wide variety of symptoms with the patient, including how regular the cycle is, the amount of bleeding, the colour of the blood and so on. Factors such as the use of contraception (contraceptive pill or coil) will also be taken into account as they can significantly alter how the period manifests itself.
Is Acupuncture Helpful in the treatment of Menstrual Problems?
1Witt et al (2008) demonstrated that acupuncture could alleviate pain in patients with painful periods (dysmenorrhea); the patients also experienced a better quality of life. In an earlier study, 2Cai et al found a 97% improvement in women treated for dysmenorrhea with acupuncture plus auricular (ear) acupuncture.
The use of Chinese herbs in treatment is also successful.

THE TROSSET WILDFLOWER SANCTUARY at Gorman Heritage Farm provides a place for respite, observation and education while supporting local native plants. A valuable collection of native wildflowers, a gift of the Trosset family, forms the foundation of the sanctuary. These flowers are enhanced by the donations of native shrubs and trees in a protected, secure site, complete with a walking trail, benches and small streams.
Cincinnati natives, Stanley Trosset and Ruth Pierle married in 1954. Stan bought property in Evendale, building a home and leaving undeveloped space wild. Ruth, a research chemist, resigned her position to raise her family and began to document the plant and animal life in the Trosset family's woods. Stan transplanted wildflowers from vacant lots around the Mill Creek Valley, an activity for which the entire Trosset family developed a passion. As the years passed, the wildflowers flourished. By the early 1990s, Ruth documented over 100 species of spring emphemerals, about 50 species of trees, and 124 species of birds. The data collected contains detailed evidence of changes in the wooded habitat and in the timing of when the wildflowers bloom. Stan photographed the wildflowers and gave presentations to local organizations. Ruth volunteered her botanical expertise, conducting plant surveys at the Oxbow and Gorman Heritage Farm. Growing up on their own nature preserve, Michael and Carol Trosset developed a love for the outdoors. Today, both are avid hikers and Carol is a dedicated birdwatcher. Michael owns 40 wooded acres in southern Indiana. Carol is currently analyzing Ruth's field notes for scientific publication. In the 1990s, Stan began to envision a permanent wildflower sanctuary. His dream is now a reality at Gorman Heritage Farm.
A living tree or shrub or a metal bench can be purchased a loving tribute for special persons' anniversaries, birthdays, retirements, birth of a grandchild, in memory of, or any other occasion.
Family, friends or colleagues can select a native shrub, or tree, including a bronze marker on a stone, a metal benches bearing a plaque with your personalized message, for wildflowers and ferns the honoree's name will be added to a special plaque inside the Gorman Heritage Farm Interpretive Center. All shrubs and trees offered are native species and provide food, seeds, shelter, nesting sites for local wildlife or host opportunities for pollinators.
What Do Wildflowers Have to Do With a Farm, Anyway?
An astounding connection, actually. From 1852 to1861, Henry David Thoreau recorded data on bloom times of several hundred flowers, shrubs and trees in his area of Massachusetts. During the last decade, Richard Primack, biology professor at Boston University, has led a team of researchers comparing present-day blooming times of thirty-two of these native plants to Thoreau's data. The startling results show that these plants are blooming as much as a week or more earlier. More research will tell if the pollinators the plants depend on return in time to support these native flowers. Since as much as 30-40 percent of our food supply (not counting forage for livestock) depends on pollinators, having insects, caterpillars, butterflies and birds return to pollinate these fruits and vegetables is critically necessary .
The Trosset family collected data on their wildflowers for over forty years, and this data has been shared with the Farm. By offering the Trosset Wildflower Sanctuary to interested parties, we can collect data on present blooming times to compare with the Trosset records. We can also begin monitoring the Farm's fruit trees to note trends over the coming years. Young people especially can benefit from the opportunity to do field work close to home.

Lazy Shoppers
Who couldn't benefit from in store savings?
Teaching your food dollars more cents....
Most of us older shoppers know that there are seasons of the year when certain items are usually less expensive, for example citrus fruits in late winter, apples in early fall, etc.
But have you checked and compared local merchants' prices lately?
Shocked by a sudden price increase of an extra 85 cents for the gallon-sized milk I buy, I jotted down prices on other items on that day's shopping list and dashed over to a nearby competitor.
I saved 36 cents per gallon by doing so and had similar savings on most items on my list. In addition, I rewarded the competitor for keeping prices down by giving them my business on those items.
On another trip, this time to the competitor store, I found I could save 7 cents per pound by buying bananas at another store, and the bananas at the other store were fresher, and thus had longer lasting quality.
During the recent recession (and it seems to be lingering) family budgets were tight and folks tended to comparison shop, to be conservative, to make their money go further.
Advertising in competitive market areas features what are called "door openers," items attractively priced so as to get shoppers into their stores. Once in the store the shoppers pay for those savings by doing the rest of their shopping there regardless of the pricing on the other items they buy!
In competitive markets, most stores now mail out flyers on the specials for the coming week. This makes it possible for shoppers to do comparative shopping before they even leave home. This became necessary as newspaper readership dropped.
Another store tactic is to post comparative prices for items in their store which "outshine" their local competition. This is a double-edged sword because it stands to reason that items for which no comparison is given may well be more expensive than at one or more of their competitors.
Who benefits from comparison shopping? Folks living on tight budgets benefit. Shoppers who have time to comparison shop will benefit, and anyone who wants to periodically compare such basic items as bread, milk, eggs, and cereals, along with other regularly purchased items, can benefit.
Yes, freshness and a store's cleanliness, inventory, service,and variety, are important factors in choosing where to shop; but it's money that buys the goods, and good shoppers regularly save when and where they can.
Stocking up on non-perishable specials is good shopping. Using a shopping list to avoid too much "impulse shopping" is good shopping, and by simply limiting the time you spend inside the store, you are likely to save money toward your next shopping trip.
Gasoline is always expensive, even if today it is lower than last week, so anything the shopper can do to avoid repeated trips to stores for forgotten items, especially for items that should routinely be on the weekly shopping list, will end up saving money. Comparative shopping for quality gasoline can result in significant savings, too.
The ultimate savings can come from planning meals ahead of time, and then shopping for the specific items that will be needed and consumed at their freshest and most nutritious.
An added tip: with ingredients and serving sizes now posted on the labels of most food items, it is quite easy to examine two items side by side while shopping. Try that sometime, for example, with two boxes of different cereals which have nearly equal popularity in your household. You will be surprised that the labeling points out which cereal has the greatest value per serving.
It may be okay for folks with big budgets for gourmet, organic, and top brand foods, to simply grab what looks good and pay the price for doing so. They can perhaps afford to be a lazy shopper. But for folks who want to teach their food dollars more cents, a little extra effort can pay big dividends each month.
Save when savings are at a maximum....
Menu planning aids in buying only what you need.
It is possible to have good flavor and good nutrition all within a conservative food budget.
Store layout is designed to help you spend!
- "Layout and Design In The 2013 Scientific Supermarket"
Supermarket science has evolved in precise ways designed to make you buy, buy and buy even more! This article uncovers 'tricks of the trade'. Good information to know for avoiding supermarket traps.
I usually do all my food shopping at Walmarts. This week their bacon was $ 8.00 a pkg. I went across the street to Little Giant and purchased better looking bacon for $ 4.58, same weight. I never eat bacon until tomato season is here, then i can't resist a bacon and tomato sandwich. Competition is a good thing. It makes ' cents ' to shop wisely.
Great stuff here, I will try to have more cents.
