Giving Up
5 comments:
Hang in there! Having friends over will help and if you do cry/scream, then thats a good thing cos you need to let it all out. You have a lot going on. Its only natural that you're down. Wish I had that magic wand that would make this bloody disease leave us alone, but i seem to have lost it under the massive pile of ironing i've got waiting for the day I feel like doing it (yeah , thats going to happen!). You r a very brave girl and have done so well getting thru your op etc. Sending pain free hugs, Amanda xxReplyDelete
Well done for giving up smoking!ReplyDelete
So sorry that things are difficult for you at the moment.Having RA is so life changing, we are allowed to be fed up, angry, tearful etc. It does pass eventually. Stay strong. Hugs, Lorna (new reader)
Hope you find some relief soon, stay strong! (And give your body all of the rest that it needs!)ReplyDelete

Hi, it really sounds like you are having one of those horrid flares that never come at the right time. is there really ever a 'right' time? probably not, i'm guessing that with lots of rest, lots of TLC from friend and family you will be feeling better soon. i really hope so. Take care dear girl all will improve soon. HxxReplyDelete
Omg. You nailed it. I'm trying to quit myself and know exactly the feeling you've had/are having. I say those eho don't have RA should walk two miles in out shoes then open their big, fat, uninformed mouths. They'd be curled in a ball, kicking,scraming, and crying. That metal pic helps far more than I care to admit. I hope quitting helps and you can see the difference, post flar. Keep blogging. We need our voices verbalized. :) xoReplyDelete

Dreams is that wonderful feeling when you know you're doing something right.
It's when the harshness of reality begins to quiet and your heart sings.
It's that look when you see yourself in the mirror and smile, knowing who you really are.
Dreams is the one thing that drives me, soothes me and keeps me alive.
It's the world I live in, the world of dreams... This wonderful, wonderful world.
This fulfilling world...
This world that is in my heart and thankful soul.

HERCULES — Stuff-a-Bus, WestCAT's holiday food drive on wheels, will make its customary annual stop in Hercules next month, but with a new twist.
In addition to nonperishable food items, Stuff-a-Bus will collect new socks and new or gently used coats this year.
The coats and socks will be distributed to needy families in the WestCAT service area and at Mission Solano, which has worked closely for years with WestCAT's transportation contractor, MV Transportation, said WestCAT marketing coordinator Yvonne Morrow.
The food will go to the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano. WestCAT also will accept cash donations or checks payable to the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano. WestCAT will provide the food bank's federal tax identification number to donors who need it for their records.
A WestCAT bus festooned in holiday decorations with Santa and his helpers on hand will park at Lucky supermarket, 1590 Sycamore Ave., from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 14. Donations also will be accepted at the WestCAT office at 601 Walter Ave. in Pinole from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays in December through Dec. 19.
Stuff-a-Bus hopes to top last year's take of 424 pounds of food, not to mention supplementing it with socks and coats, Morrow said. Donated food items should be nonperishable; examples are canned meat and fish, iron-rich cereal, canned fruit, 100 percent fruit juice, dry beans, enriched rice, canned vegetables and tomato products, powdered milk and canned, ready-to-eat meals.
Morrow invites people who know a needy family or individual in the WestCAT service area to call her or Mica at 510-724-3331 or email WestCAT at firstname.lastname@example.com to ensure the needy folks are included on WestCAT's holiday donation list.
WestCAT operates local buses in northwestern Contra Costa County; express buses between Martinez and El Cerrito Del Norte BART; BART Express buses between Hercules, Pinole, Richmond's Hilltop area and El Cerrito Del Norte BART; and "Lynx" express buses between Rodeo-Hercules and San Francisco's Transbay Terminal.

Keyboard-driven Mini-Search/Replace
The Edit menu contains a Mini-Search sub-menu that enumerates the available keyboard-driven search options. These are normally initiated with the keyboard command sequences shown in the menu and can be controlled entirely by using the keyboard. All interaction with the mini-search manager occurs using data entry areas displayed on demand at the bottom of the IDE window.
The implementation of the mini-search manager is very close to the most commonly used search and replace features found in Emacs, but it is available whether or not the Emacs editor personality is being used.
The following search and replace features are available in this facility:
- Forward and Backward -- These display a search string entry area
at the bottom of the IDE window and interactively search forward or
backward in the current source editor, starting from the current cursor
position. The search takes place as you type and can be aborted with
Esc or Ctrl-G, which returns the editor to its original
cursor location and scroll position.
Searching is case-insensitive unless you enter a capital letter as part of your search string. To search repeatedly, press Ctrl-U (or Ctrl-S in emacs keyboard mode) to search forward and ``Ctrl-Shift-U (or Ctrl-R in emacs mode) to search in reverse. The search direction can be changed any number of times and searching will wrap whenever the top or bottom of the file is reached. You can also enter Ctrl-U (or Ctrl-S in emacs mode) or Ctrl-Shift-U (or Ctrl-R in emacs mode) again initially while the search string is still blank in order to call up the most recently used search string and begin searching forward or backward with it.
Once the mini-search entry area is visible, Ctrl-W will add the current word in the editor to the search string. Pressing Ctrl-W more than once while the mini-search entry is visible adds additional words from the editor to the search string.
- Selection Forward and Selection Backward -- These work like the above but start with the selection in the current source editor.
- Regex Forward and Regex Backward -- These work like the above but treat the search string as a regular expression.
- Query/Replace and Regex Query/Replace -- This prompts for search and replace strings in an entry area at the bottom of the IDE window and prompts for replace on each individual match found after the cursor location in the current source editor. Press y to replace or n to skip a match and move on to the next one. The interaction can be canceled at any time with Esc or Ctrl-G. Matching is case insensitive unless a capital letter is entered as part of the search string. Searching is always forward and stops when the end of the file is reached, without wrapping to any un-searched parts between the top of the file and the position from which the search was started.
- Replace String and Replace Regex -- This works like the above command but immediately replaces all matches without prompting.

Imagine if the 2012 elections had turned out this way: President Barack Obama won the popular vote by 5 million votes and almost 4 percent, taking seven of the eight largest states, as he did, yet the Republican candidate, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, took the oath of office last week.
Imagine if the 2012 elections had turned out this way: President Barack Obama won the popular vote by 5 million votes and almost 4 percent, taking seven of the eight largest states, as he did, yet the Republican candidate, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, took the oath of office last week.
Such a scenario might not be far-fetched if some Republican politicians in statehouses around the country get their way.
Presidential elections are decided by the Electoral College. Each state gets electors based on the number of congressional districts it has, plus two for its senators. With the exception of two small states, Maine and Nebraska, electors are awarded on a winner-take-all basis; 270 out of a total of 538 are necessary to become president.
Individual states set the rules for these electors; the current system, by most accounts, has worked well. Three times — twice in the 19th century and then in 2000 — the Electoral College victor lost the popular vote.
Now, Republican state legislators in as many as a half-dozen states where they control the governmental machinery even though their state was carried by the Democratic candidate in the past couple presidential elections, want to change the system and tilt it decidedly in their party's favor. They would do this by scrapping the winner-take-all rule and awarding electors by congressional districts.
"This would amount to a legal subversion of democracy to game the system for political advantage," says the legal scholar Walter Dellinger, who served as solicitor general in the Clinton administration.
That's not a frivolous alarm. Republican legislators, with tacit support from their governors, in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin are advocating this. The party's national chairman, Reince Priebus, is keeping a low profile and signaling encouragement.
To gauge the potential effect, consider what would have happened if these states, along with Virginia, Florida and Ohio, where Republicans also control the state houses, had forced this through in the most recent presidential election. Obama carried all these states, sweeping 106 electoral votes. But Romney won two-thirds of the congressional districts; if all else were equal, the Republican would have carried the Electoral College, becoming the first president who was trounced in the popular vote.
Scratching your head? Some of this maneuvering is due to redistricting or gerrymandering of congressional districts, a process largely controlled by Republicans after their big victories in 2010. Also Democrats tend to congregate in the same districts while Republicans are more diffuse.
Two examples: Obama won Pennsylvania by 5 points and Michigan by 9 points, clear cut by any standard. Yet Romney carried 13 of the 18 congressional districts in Pennsylvania and 10 of the 14 in Michigan, and would have won the lion's share of delegates in both states that he lost decisively.
Allotting presidential electors by congressional district would increase the incentives for partisan gerrymandering, already a factor in congressional dysfunction.
There is a longstanding and substantive debate over whether presidents should be decided by the Electoral College or the popular vote. That flared anew when George W. Bush won the presidency 12 years ago even though Al Gore won the popular vote.
Supporters of a change say it would create a genuine national election. Last autumn, Obama and Romney focused almost all their resources and time in eight states, all carried by the president. In a general election, voters in Buffalo, San Diego, Houston or New Orleans only lay eyes on a candidate if they're in town for a quick-hit fundraiser.
Defenders of the Electoral College dismiss this argument, claiming the present system strikes a political balance between states and regions that the Founding Fathers envisioned. A direct popular election, they contend, would depersonalize the campaign, turning into nothing more than incessant money-grabbing and television advertising. The focus last time was on a handful of states; Romney and Obama had to spend considerable time meeting real voters in Columbus, Ohio, or the northern Virginia and Denver suburbs.
Either the current Electoral College or a decision by popular vote, if the prolonged ballot counting in some states could be remedied, would produce a winner with legitimacy. The controversy over Bush's election in 2000 wasn't related to the system but whether he really won Florida, which gave him the Electoral College victory.
Still, changing to a popular vote probably would require a constitutional amendment with approval by two-thirds of both houses of Congress and three-quarters of the states.
Presidential electors are specifically mentioned in the Constitution. It's not going to happen.
What might stop these attempts at rigging is if smart Republicans realize how manipulative it looks, and that it could come back to bite them; that's the view of the former party chairman and ex-Mississippi governor Haley Barbour. And such a system would dilute the clout of the states that adopt it, which is why Gov. Bob McDonnell of Virginia is opposing any change.
If this sort of political coup had been pulled off earlier, instead of celebrations on the streets of Washington during last week's presidential Inauguration, there would have been violent protests.

How about an update on what we've been doing lately. If you remember what our backyard looked like a few months ago, you know it wasn't pretty.
In June we rented two giant dumpsters and a jackhammer to get rid of all the concrete:
We hired someone to pour new stamped concrete and build a wall around the area where we will be laying sod. We will bring in dirt so that the grass will be even with the top of the wall:
And the front of the wall:
We still have a lot more work to do but I can finally envision how everything will turn out. I can't wait to get some color back there.
When we're not working in the yard we are going to soccer games:
Playing at the beach:
And taking silly pictures:

Asheville resident Felicia Gordon won $150,000 in a North Carolina Education Lottery scratch-off game.
Asheville resident Felicia Gordon plans to use the $150,000 she won playing the 10X the Payout game to purchase a new home, according to a news release from the N.C. Education Lottery.
Gordon, a customer service phone representative, was sitting in her car on her lunch break when she scratched off the winning ticket.
"I thought I was looking at it wrong," Gordon said. "I looked at it a hundred times. It was surreal."
After taxes were withheld, Gordon received a check for $102,001. She purchased the winning $5 ticket at the Market Center on Hendersonville Road in Asheville.
"This feels great," Gordon said as she held her check for the first time. "We're going house shopping this afternoon."
As of Thursday morning, five more $150,000 top prizes remain to be claimed in the game, the release states.

Twins Make Highly Anticipated Roster Move
The Twins announced Sunday that they have demoted pitcher Pedro Hernandez to AAA and have recalled former first round draft pick Kyle Gibson from Rochester. Gibson will make his first start on Saturday night at Target Field.
Twins fans had been growing impatient as the major league rotation has struggled mightily in 2013. Gibson, who had Tommy John elbow ligament replacement surgery after the 2011 season, was 7-5 with a 3.01 ERA. Gibson notched 79 strikeouts in 92 innings pitched.

DeFUNIAK SPRINGS � It has been on the job training for the Crestview boys basketball team under first year coach Ken Meisner. Meisner wasn�t hired until just before preseason drills last month and the Bulldogs have been playing catch up ever since as the new coach and the Crestview players are getting to know what to expect from each other.
DeFUNIAK SPRINGS � It has been on the job training for the Crestview boys basketball team under first year coach Ken Meisner.
Meisner wasn�t hired until just before preseason drills last month and the Bulldogs have been playing catch up ever since as the new coach and the Crestview players are getting to know what to expect from each other.
The Bulldogs continued their crash course in Meisner�s style basketball Tuesday night when they traveled to Walton to take on the Braves.
A gritty effort by Crestview wasn�t enough as Walton took a 59-50 win.
Meisner said lack of execution was what led to the Bulldog loss, but that he also continues to see improvement from his team each game.
�We ran what we�ve worked on, but we beat ourselves,� he said. �Obviously Walton gets the win, and I give Walton all the credit, they did what they had to do to win, but when we don�t execute we are going to beat ourselves.
�The improvement has been 100 percent. And that�s all you ask for as a coach. As long as you can make improvement throughout the season good things are going to happen and not just during the season, but in life.
The Bulldogs (2-4) played from behind most of the night as the Braves jumped to an early 10-2 lead.
Crestview�s only score in the first 3:30 of play came on a basket by Jonathon Buckelew.
Back-to-back 3-point plays by Bulldog post player Denzel Ware cut the Walton (6-0) lead to 10-8 with four minutes left in the opening quarter.
Just as quickly as the Bulldogs pulled to within a basket of Walton the Braves scored six quick points on a pair long 3-pointers by DeShawn Tucker.
The pattern continued throughout the first half as the Braves scored in small spurts and the Bulldogs responded staying within four or five points of the lead.
Walton led 19-13 at the end of the first quarter and 33-29 at the half.
Ronnie Baylark came up big for Crestview in the second quarter scoring seven of his team-high 18 points in the period.
The teams matched each other basket-for-basket in the third quarter as Walton led 44-40 after three.
Baylark opened the fourth quarter with five quick points. His second basket, a 3-pointer, gave the Bulldogs their first lead of the night at 45-44 with 7:03 left in the game.
Crestview held the lead for 75 second until Ken Rudolph hit a pair of free throws to put Walton back in front with 5:49 left in the fourth. Eleven seconds later Buckelew answered with two free throws of his own to put the Bulldogs back in the lead.
A Rudoph 3-pointer started an 11-0 Walton run that put the game out of reach.
Crestview�s Baylark and Walton�s Tucker tied for high-point honors with 18 points each.
Buckelew and Ware each had 12 points for Crestview.
Rudolph added 17 for the Braves and Shaq Huffman had 13.
At the end of the day Meisner knows there�s still plenty of work to do.
�We are learning each other,� he said. �We are still not where we want to be. They are slowly learning that we want to play an up tempo game a little bit and we can do that we can get some easy baskets.
�When we were able to get the ball up the floor we were able to get some easy baskets or at least some easy looks.�

Double Disaster as Phillies Lose Two Against the Rays
The Phillies managed to spend only one day out of the basement in the NL East after Saturday's win. But Sunday's twin killing against the Rays propelled them right back to where they apparently belong; in last place. When your two best starters are pitching and you still lose both games, things have clearly gone very, very wrong.
In the first game, Cole Hamels was practically unhittable. He did not allow a run over 7 innings and gave up only 3 hits.
Leaving the game with a 1-0 lead, the bullpen was going to have to pitch 2 clean innings. And as you probably already know, that did not happen.
I try not to say too much about how Charlie Manuel handles this team. Because frankly, what he has been given to work with is on par with a minor league team. But after Antonio Bastardo walked 2 batters in the 8th with just a 1-run lead, he should not have been allowed to continue. Bastardo was awful the day before and clearly, he still has not found proper command of his pitches. So why then is he left in to pitch to Carlos Pena?
Apparently, he was left in to clear the bases for the next pitcher as he gave up a 3-run homer to Pena. I saw that coming, as did everyone in my section screaming, "Take him out!" But Manuel puts blind faith in these guys even when it has become obvious to everyone else that the leash has gotten far too long.
Then again, look at the players Manuel has to choose from. The pickings are slim. This bullpen just sucks, so in that regard, it is still hard to blame the manager. I still don't agree with the decision to leave Bastardo in, but I am also glad I was not the one having to make that decision.
And then in the 8th with 2 outs and the bases loaded, Manuel left Michael Martinez in to bat instead of pinch hitting. Martinez is hitting .133 and could not hit the broad side of a barn right now. After the game, Manuel told the media that neither Juan Pierre nor Mike Fontenot were hitting lefties well, so he left Martinez in. The issue with that is, Martinez is not hitting ANYONE right now.
Angry at the media for asking, Manuel suggested the reporters should tweet him with their in-game decisions saying, "You guys can float the information down there to me, being as I ain't smart enough to get it." Oh my…
Here are a few other random shots from the 1st game, which the Phillies went on to lose, 3-2.
In game 2, Cliff Lee basically squashed any shot he may have had at his first win of the season by allowing 5 runs over 7 innings. His last 3 starts have been awful. Where did our ace go?
Perhaps the strain of not having a win has finally stolen whatever small amount of sanity he had left? No one really knows what is going on here.
Placido Polanco tried to get this team going. He went 2-for-3 with 2 RBI and a walk. John Mayberry Jr. also had a big hit and an RBI. And it was apparently "opposite day" for Hunter Pence who drew 3 walks in the game.
But the offense literally ended there. The Phillies managed only 4 hits and left 6 men on base.
And just so Lee did not feel singled out in this one, some of the rookie pitchers decided to help out with 5 walks, a wild pitch and 2 more runs for the Rays in one inning. It looks like B.J. Rosenberg's major league career may be over before it began. He was responsible for all that damage except 1 of the walks.
Adding insult to injury, catcher Brian Schneider was leveled at home plate by Sean Rodriguez coming in to score. He left the game with a sprained ankle. Later, Pence almost took out the Rays catcher in a weird semi-collision with Jose Molina's outstretched leg.
Schneider is now on the DL and the Phillies went down for the count in a 7-3 loss.
Here are the Photo Albums from both games: Game 1: Hamels start, Game 2: Lee start.

text: Some more photos from the show that brought newly tagged Band To Watch Beige onto our listening docket here, by way of photographer Natasha Ryan, who captured headliner Alex Zhang Hungtai aka Dirty Beaches both onstage and in outdoor portrait last Friday. The night before, Hungtai performed a set at Mercury Lounge in his typical setup, solo and set to backing tracks from his recommended LP Badlands. The songs look to greaser rockabilly and David Lynch soundtracks, evoking punk ala Lux Interior and Alan Vega; onstage Alex plays his Elvis after a stop at the tattoo parlor part well, slung with guitar, brooding like Brando or going live wire with his vocals like Lee Lewis. On this night he'd be joined for the first time with a backing band in the form of Philadelphia's Lantern, which he said Vice Mag had called "the best band in Philadelphia" (he upgraded it to "the world"). It was a proper pairing, in that all involved were interested in throbbing garage rock and jumping into the crowd. They played music they collaborated to write the day before. If it was messy, it was true to the spirit of their chemistry, which felt infectious, slapdash, sweaty, and a little dangerous. Still, the night was made when Dirty Beaches heeded crowd calls for his solo takes on "Sweet 17″ and other album tracks. Being a loner suits him.

Gameloft's Order & Chaos Online was mobile gaming's answer to World of Warcraft, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game for tablets and smartphones. Tomorrow the brand expands with Heroes of Order & Chaos, a MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) game shades of League of Legends.
This is actually a rather interesting reversal of the origin of the MOBA, which sprung from the defence of the Ancients variant game type created in Warcraft III, the precursor to World of Warcraft. Good times.
Gameloft's MOBA is a free-to-play affair, packed with 30 different characters, six of which are available at no cost every week on a rotating basis. It packs two maps, one three-on-three and one five-on-five, along with AI companions and a guild system, for the more organised among us.
Gameloft is calling Heroes of Order & Chaos the first true MOBA game for smartphones and tablets. I'm calling it a game in which I shall be quickly outclassed by the hardcore devotees, eventually becoming afraid to even log in.
Look for it in iTunes and Google Play tomorrow.

The Georgia Southwestern men's soccer team came up short in its attempt to upset No. 20 Montevallo on Saturday afternoon at Hurricane Field, losing 1-0.
James Steer notched his first score of the season, and the lone goal of the match, on a header from six yards in the 21st minute to lift UM to the victory.
The scoreless second half featured few serious scoring opportunities.
Both sides had two shots on goal in the match. Montevallo (12-1-1, 5-1-1 PBC) led 4-2 in corner kicks.
It was the fourth 1-0 loss of the season for GSW.
Goalkeeper David Porley finished with one save for the Hurricanes. Brendan Ledgeway stopped two for Montevallo.
Southwestern (2-9, 1-4) travels to No. 10 Clayton State on Wednesday for a 5 p.m. match.

You are not required to have a driver's license to own or register a vehicle,
VA requires insurance or the payment of an uninsured motorist fee
"The Virginia Uninsured Motor Vehicle (UMV) fee allows a motor vehicle owner to register an uninsured motor vehicle. At the time of registration, the motor vehicle owner must certify whether the vehicle is insured or uninsured.
If the vehicle is uninsured, the motor vehicle owner is required to pay to DMV a $500 uninsured motor vehicle fee in addition to normal registration fees. Payment of the $500 fee does not provide the motorist with any insurance coverage. If involved in an accident, the uninsured motorist remains personally liable. This fee is valid for twelve months but may be prorated for a shorter amount of time.
Motor vehicle owners who falsely certify that they have insurance and are found by DMV to be uninsured face stiff penalties. In addition to facing suspension of all driver and registration privileges, compliance includes payment of a $500 statutory fee, a $85 reinstatement fee and filing proof of insurance for three years. During the three-year period, insurance companies cooperate with DMV by providing notification if a policy is canceled. This requirement to maintain proof of insurance enables DMV to ensure that these motor vehicle owners maintain liability insurance on their registered vehicles. " http://www.dmv.state.va.us/webdoc/citize...
You may be able to list another driver and get insurance for less than the $500 fee, check with an insurance agent.

NASHVILLE (AP) – Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey expects fellow Republican Gov. Bill Haslam to announce by Friday's deadline that Tennessee will move ahead with plans to create a state-run health insurance exchange.
But Ramsey stressed to reporters on Thursday that a final decision is still months away about whether the state or the federal government will ultimately run the health care marketplace required under Democratic President Barack Obama's federal health care law.
"All that really does is kick the can down the road – as the federal government has done with this – and leave our options open," Ramsey said.
"Common sense would tell you that any time the state could run something, it is better than the federal government running something," he said. "But common sense and Obamacare don't go in the same sentence."
Ramsey called it "arrogant" for the federal government to demand states make a decision when so many details about what the exchanges will entail are still lacking. He said keeping options open about a state-run state exchange would give the governor and lawmakers more time to make an informed decision.
Key issues include how much flexibility would be granted to the states if they run their own exchanges.
"Why would we want to have a state-run authority when we only really get to run 10 to maybe 20 percent of it?" he said. "The federal government's still running 80 percent of it, yet we get 100 percent of the blame."
Ramsey said he expected the issue of how – and at what level – to comply with the federal health care law would be a major focus of lawmakers when they return in January.
Haslam spokesman David Smith said the governor was still reviewing his options.
"The governor continues to gather information, and no decision has been made," he said.

Little knit hats. Rompers. Skirts that reveal roll upon roll of delicious chubbiness.
I so, so wanted a girl.
When I found out we were having a boy for our first child, I felt only a small swallow of disappointment. My husband and I planned on having another child - another chance for a girl. (Do I need to even say that OBVIOUSLY our first concern was that the baby was healthy? Just in case you are tsk tsking to yourself. Which I know you're not, because that's not how you roll.)
I mean, I love my son. He's adorable and, in retrospect, was a very easy baby. But I didn't see myself having a tea party with him, or later, getting pedis together.
So when we got pregnant when Sawyer was a year old, I started daydreaming about pink. But I just knew it would be a boy, because really really wanting something does not make it so. And why should I be so lucky?
It was a boy. I was sure of it.
Then we had the ultrasound. David and I stared at the black and white image on the screen. It was so clear, we could see the motes floating in the amniotic fluid. And we weren't first-timers. We'd seen boy parts before. I cocked my head to the side. David leaned in. Finally the tech said, "Do you want to know?"
I said, "It's a boy, right?"
"I'll put you out of your misery," she said. "Imagine the baby is sitting on a glass table. And you are under it, looking up. That's the view you're getting. Of your baby girl."
David and I looked at each other through tears. We couldn't believe it.
A girl.
Pigtails. Ballet shoes. Dolls. Pink. Did I mention pink? Because when you've dressed your child in blue and brown and green and in shirts with trucks and footballs on them, you might go a little overboard with a certain other color.
I hoped for another girl when I became pregnant with our third. I love to shop. And I may have bought
Of course, we had another boy, and he is perfect for our family.
Still, I feel sad Sage won't have a sister. I can't imagine not having one, even though mine tormented me occasionally - like telling me, at age 4, that one day I would bleed from my Private Parts and there was nothing I could do about it.
She also came racing home early from two hours away to raise holy Hell when she heard my father and grandfather were telling me how fat I was - on the eve of my college graduation. She was my biggest champion. Who would be that for Sage?
If David and I were younger, if we had a bigger house, if we made more money, then maybe we would consider having another child. But we're old, live in a tiny house, and are lucky to do okay on one salary.
The shop is closed.
Baby lust. It's going to have to be put on hold til someone calls me "Grandma."
Maybe that someone will be a sweet baby girl in a sun hat.

AC/DC's 'Thunderstruck' Reportedly Used in Cyber Attack Against Iranian Nuclear Program
Iran's nuclear program has been a constant source of news for the American media, as various governments and international organizations have attempted to ban Iran from developing their nuclear program. AC/DC, however, have apparently prevailed in causing a ruckus in Iran, as their classic track 'Thunderstruck' has been used as the calling card for a cyber attack against the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI).
Iran's nuclear program has reportedly been subject to persistent cyber attacks, which consists of code designed to interfere with Iranian centrifuges and reactor centers. Iran was hit with yet another cyber attack recently, which caused 'Thunderstruck' to be blasted at high volumes from AEOI work stations.
An email was also released, which reportedly documents an Iranian nuclear scientist reaching out to publish information on the heavy metal attack:
I am writing you to inform you that our nuclear program has once again been compromised and attacked by a new worm with exploits which have shut down our automation network at Natanz and another facility Fordo near Qom.
According to the email our cyber experts sent to our teams, they believe a hacker tool Metasploit was used. The hackers had access to our VPN. The automation network and Siemens hardware were attacked and shut down. I only know very little about these cyber issues as I am scientist not a computer expert.
There was also some music playing randomly on several of the workstations during the middle of the night with the volume maxed out. I believe it was playing 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC.
If you happen to be listening to 'Thunderstruck' at the moment, we advise you to confirm that the song is in fact being played at your own will.

So much for a quiet period? Even though Facebook recently filed its S-1, the updates just keep coming. We recently learned that brands would be getting the Timeline treatment at the end of the month, and now TechCrunch says Facebook has taken a page out of Twitter's book and will introduce verified accounts as well as the ability for users to create pseudonyms for those accounts.
The site has long championed a "real name" policy, although enforcing this has been incredibly lax. Many users have defied the system with their user names (points at self), and Facebook has very loosely policed this. Google+ attempted a more severe structure and was quick to oust faked names (and in some cases, real ones it didn't trust). Of course, by now we know that G+ compromised and eventually allowed users to include a nickname with their profile.
So while Facebook hasn't been a watchdog about this, it now officially accepts pseudonyms for verified accounts. Selected users (those with very high subscriber numbers) will see an option to verify their accounts. Celebrities and public figures are obviously the beneficiaries here, and Facebook decides who gets the privilege. The site will manually patrol the verified account registrations, as well as registered aliases, and applicants will have to send Facebook government-issue ID or two alternate IDs (which the site will delete later).
It's all very similar to the process Twitter went through when it first introduced verified accounts (obviously, alternate names were not an issue on the site). The site was plagued by celebrity impersonators, which was hurting its legitimacy — as well as frustrating businesses trying to use the site and its famous users for marketing purposes. The solution was simple, and has since spawned entirely new avenues for marketing via the platform. Google+ went through a similar transformation.
Facebook likely wants to push the same strategy with its new subscription feature. Once an account is verified, it will be pushed more frequently in the suggested subscriptions section. However, the site will not be using any visual icons for users to identify when an account is verified. So if your name just happens to be Justin Timberlake, some confusion might remain without something notifying users whether they are or aren't following the more famous Timberlake.
It's definitely a deviation from Facebook's original focus, which was very much about connecting real people, not validating celebrity. And while Twitter has become a popular haven for the famous and their followers (and an advertiser's paradise), Facebook would be wise to remember it has a much more stable revenue model than the microblogging site does. Facebook is really trying to push this idea of subscribing to the more famous among us, but it just isn't as naturally positioned for this as Twitter. Twitter is more passive and users are more apt to watch and listen, but on Facebook we're more interactive — something the subscriber feature isn't really about.
The lack of pushing celebrity Internet presence (in comparison to other social sites) on Facebook has been somewhat refreshing. Relatively speaking, it's been much more about "real" people.
But it's Facebook's world and we're all just living in it. The site's evolution is unstoppable, and we've seen significant change over the last year especially. And how it shapes the platform from now on will have more to do with its investors and financial future — it can't take as many risks or ignore potential profit.

A Baltimore Police Department's helicopter made an emergency landing in Reedbird Park Friday night after facing technical difficulties, police said.
No one was injured in the landing, which was made as a precautionary measure, according to police spokesman Det. Vernon Davis. No details were immediately available about what caused the incident.
The helicopter was able to fly back to its helipad shortly after making the landing, Davis said.
The Baltimore police aviation unit, which is known as Foxtrot, got four new helicopters with better surveillance tools last year.

Indie staple Paul Dano ("Ruby Sparks," "There Will Be Blood") has been tapped to play a young Brian Wilson in a new film titled "Love and Mercy." The actor will collaborate on the production -- which is scheduled to begin in early summer -- with an impressive pedigree of talent.
Oren Moverman, who co-wrote and directed "The Messenger" wrote the script, which is said to take an unconventional look at seminal moments in Wilson's life, while musician Atticus Ross is in talks to compose the film's soundtrack and sound design.
The former Beach Boy, now 70, has endorsed the project saying, "I am thrilled that Paul Dano has signed on to play me during one of my most creative explosions and most fulfilling times in my career."
Perhaps the biggest wild card is the helmer of the project. Academy Award-nominated producer Bill Pohlad will direct the film in addition to producing it. Pohlad, through his financing/production company River Road Productions, has had a fruitful producing career in Hollywood, behind such critical successes as "Into the Wild" and "Tree of Life." He also served as executive producer for "Brokeback Mountain" and the Valerie Plame story "Fair Game."

The nauseous feeling in the pit of the stomach of Chicago Bears fans is a familiar feeling.
Almost one year ago a promising season came to a screeching halt when Jay Cuter broke his thumb and backup Caleb Hanie crumbled under the pressure. On Sunday, Cutler went down in the second quarter with a concussion and did not return.
Relive every game this season online and on-demand with enhanced viewing features, including the "All-22" coaches film. Get NFL Game Rewind.
"That's why we got Jason (Campbell) over the offseason -- in case Jay went down," Bears linebacker Brain Urlacher told Mike Silver of Yahoo! Sports. "I don't think he did a bad job. He just came into a tough situation.
"Don't get me wrong -- I hate that Jay is out, and it [expletive] stresses me out. He's such a tough son of a bitch, and I know he'll try hard to get back soon. But trust me, we're better off now than we were last year at the backup position."
The Bears fell to 7-2 with a sloppy 13-6 loss to the Houston Texans, but they remain in the driver's seat to make the playoffs.
Campbell went 11 of 19 for 94 yards and the offense seemed to lack punch, especially in the final drive when the veteran seemed reluctant to force the ball downfield, and he had some drops by his receivers. He also wasn't the train wreck Hanie was last season.
The Bears take on the San Francisco 49ers next Monday night, in what could be a battle of the backups after both Cutler and Alex Smith suffered concussions on Sunday.
"Jay being out just puts more pressure on us to make more plays," Urlacher said. "And we've done that. We can do that. Our goal is to outplay the other team's defense every game -- it doesn't matter who we're playing. We need to get better."

Collio Vineyards of Livon looking towards Slovenia (Photo ©Tom Hyland)
During my recent visit to the Collio district of Friuli Venezia Giulia, I was able to taste several recently released white wines from the 2012 vintage. 2012 was a warm vintage, but unlike 2011, which was also quite hot, growers received a break with rain in late summer, which allowed longer ripening on the vine, giving the wines better acidity and structure. The 2011 Collio whites are very nice, but different, as they are very rich on the palate, while the 2012s are a bit more delicate, but have better balance overall and the potential to drink well for a few additional years.
Of course, Collio is a marvelous growing district, especially for white grapes, as there are temperate influences with both breezes from the nearby Adriatic Sea and well as winds from the Julian Alps, situated not too far away. Combine that with beautifully sited vineyards (Collio means "hill" in Italian) and you have a perfect home for distinctive white wines. The best examples here are what I like to call vibrant, as they excite your palate; how nice to find white wines that aren't simple or on the other hand, burdensome. Be it monovarietal, such as Friulano, Sauvignon or Ribolla Gialla or several others or a wonderfully crafted blend of several varieties, the white wines from Collio are among the finest and most distinctive in the world.
Here are brief notes on some of my favorite 2012 Collio whites to date:
Villa Russiz Pinot Grigio – Yes, Pinot Grigio has become a commodity and unfortunately, there are too many insipid versions from Italy. But when it is made from grapes in a cool climate from hillside vineyards, the results are often wonderful. Villa Russiz has been producing one of Italy's finest examples for some time now; this 2012 has a slight copper color (the color of the grape is actually a mix of copper, gray and gold) with fragrant aromas of Bosc pear, apple peel and magnolia. Medium-full, this is refreshing with very good acidity and a long finish. Simply put, it is delicious and beautifully made!
Villa Russiz Malvasia – Malvasia (or Malvasia Istriana, as it is sometimes known in Friuli) is a beautiful variety with amazing aromatics and striking acidity. I love it and I hope that more producers will work with this variety and export it to the United States and other countries, so more consumers can experience the exotic pleasures of this wine. The 2012 Malvasia from Villa Russiz is excellent with gorgeous perfumes of papaya and hyacinth (how's that for unique fragrances?), lovely acidity and impressive persistence. This is one of the best examples of Malvasia I've had, as this has a bit more depth of fruit than many versions that are "pretty," yet lack concentration. Perfectly balanced, this has marvelous texture and could work with any number of foods, from Thai and Oriental cuisine to roast chicken with lemon and tarragon. Enjoy this now or over the next 2-3 years. Another beautiful examples of the strength and wide array of Collio whites!
Livon "Solarco" – This is a lovely blend of Ribolla Gialla and Friulano that Livon has perfected. Offering beautiful aromas of green apple, spearmint and lilacs, this is medium-bodied with very good acidity and balance. Refreshing and quite complex, this is a lovely wine at lunch with lighter seafood or pastas.
Livon "Soluna" – This is a Malvasia from Livon that displays excellent varietal character, especially with its lovely floral aromatics, with notes of quince and Anjou pear along with a distinctive notes of cinnamon. Medium-full, this has very good acidity and persistence and is simply delicious! Enjoy this over the next 2-3 years with Oriental cuisine.
Muzic Malvasia – Muzic is a small, but notable producer in Collio; this Malvasia is an excellent example of the quality at this estate. Aromas of yellow peaches, lemon rind and acacia flowers, this is a lovely wine with lively acidity and ideal ripeness.
Humar Friulano – Friulano, formerly known as Tocai Friulano, is a signature grape of Collio. This is a version that offers lovely aromas of Anjou pear and lilacs with impressive weight on the palate, very good acidity and impressive persistence. This can accompany many white meats as well as risotto or many vegetable dishes.
Russiz Superiore Pinot Grigio – There's no great mystery to this wine; it's just a well made PInot Grigio with rich concentration, ideal acidity and notes of white spice in the finish that give this wine added complexity. What a lovely wine for just sitting down and enjoying with good friends at an outdoor enoteca or garden, much as I did with Marco Felluga, proprietor of this estate, who is an energetic 86 years young. Here's to many more great wines, Marco!
Livio Felluga Sauvignon – The Livio Felluga estate (Livio is the older brother of Marco; he is 99 years of age) produces wines from both Collio and the Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC zones. This 2012 Sauvignon is typical of the rich fruit and lively acidity one sees from this variety in Collio. Offering aromas of spearmint and white flowers along with just a hint of fresh hay, this is medium-full with lovely texture, good acidity and notable persistence. Beautifully balanced, this is a perfect partner with most shellfish; enjoy over the next 3-5 years.

My credit is not great, while my parents have a perfect record. Is it a good idea to get them to co-sign a loan?Has anyone ever done this? Whose credit score do they use to determine interest?I want to broach this subject early to them, so they'll have time to think it over... that's why I'm asking about it right now.
One thing to consider is that while yes, if you have a co signer with good credit, they will use the beter of the two, they wil also require documentation from the co signer, usually pay stubs, bank statements, and the like. This may vary depending on which company doing the lending, but if I used a co signer with sallie mae or wells fargo private law loans, they would have required my husbands pay stubs and all that. Not that it is a big deal when it is my husband, but if I had to get that stuff from my parents, it might be more of a hassle.

Brad Pitt stares thoughtfully at the audience on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, airing on Thursday (September 22).
The 47-year-old actor talked with host Ellen DeGeneres about his partner Angelina Jolie.
"We find our time. We carve out Mommy, Daddy time… It's called a hotel. You got to get out of this house. You got to leave," Brad said about finding mommy daddy time for him and Angie.
"I've said that we would not be getting married until everyone in this county had the right to get married…We live in this great country that is about freedom. It is defined by our freedom and equality and yet we allow this discrimination to go on everyday and that's not what we're about," Brad said about marriage equality.
"That's not what makes us great. Until that is reversed. I just don't get it. "It'a make'a no sense to me" (in a italian accent)," Brad concluded.
Bigger picture inside…

Winning three races in two days at Tampa Bay Downs – two on Saturday – probably pales in comparison. But for Collins, the opportunity to get the most from a horse has always been what the sport of Thoroughbred racing is all about.
Miesque's Approval stands as the best example of Collins's skill and perception.
After finishing sixth in a turf claiming event at Aqueduct in the fall of 2005, Miesque's Approval was shipped back to owner Charlotte Weber's Ocala showcase, ostensibly for retirement. But Collins, at the time the farm trainer for Live Oak Stud, believed the horse had plenty of racing potential left.
Collins called in an acupuncturist, put a magnetic blanket on Miesque's Approval, had him reshod and patiently helped him feel good about competing again.
"There was a lot going wrong with him in the hind end and shoulders, and I saw some things that needed to be done to help him," Collins recalled. "In the end, (Mrs. Weber) trusted me, and he went on to win the Sunshine Millions Turf and the Breeders' Cup Mile (at Churchill Downs)."
Collins, 56, left Live Oak three years ago to go out on his own and is training about 18 Thoroughbreds from his base at Nelson Jones Farm and Training Center in Ocala. He has won three races from four starters the past two days at Tampa Bay Downs, going 2-for-2 on Saturday's card.
Collins won the second race, a 5 ½-furlong maiden claiming event, with 4-year-old filly Stripe E for owner Leopoldo Ortega. Huber Villa-Gomez was the jockey. In the fourth race, Augusto Marin rode the Collins-trained mare Zippin Along to victory for owner Antonio Alvarez in a five-furlong claiming race.
On Friday's card, Collins won the fifth race, a six-furlong maiden claiming race, with 3-year-old Coolyourpipes for owner Robdale Farm. "That horse is going to get stronger and be a better horse down the road," Collins predicted.
Collins was a jockey for about nine years, primarily in Louisiana, and rode Quarter Horses in the mid-1970s when Pompano Park held a Quarter Horse permit. He has been involved in racing as a jockey, exercise rider and trainer for 36 years. He lives in Ocala with his wife of 34 years, Myra.
Collins, who also breaks young horses for Tampa Bay Downs trainer Jane Cibelli, learned his horsemanship in Meridian, Miss. from the late Bill Dardon, a neighbor and horseman who adopted Collins when he was 9.
"My parents weren't able to give me everything I needed, and Bill Dardon helped me understand things and taught me how to get the best out of a horse. I can't thank him enough for the education he gave me in the horse business," Collins said.
Collins has broken dozens of outstanding horses in his career, the majority for Live Oak, and holds what may be a unique distinction. He broke three of the 20 starters in the 2005 Kentucky Derby – High Fly, Noble Causeway and Sun King (that year's Tampa Bay Derby winner). He also broke 2008 Belmont Stakes winner Da' Tara.
Collins, who still rides every day and is able to feel what his horses feel, hopes to start more horses at Tampa Bay Downs and looks forward to the opportunity to again work with the likes of Miesque's Approval.
That is every horseman's dream, of course, but Collins is confident he'll know what to do when the chance comes again.
"I had a lot of great years dealing with some great trainers, people I have the utmost respect for," he said. "I've sent some horses to Jane Cibelli at Tampa Bay Downs, and she is doing a great job. You've got to take a chance when your horse is doing good, but you have to run them where they fit and be aware of what's going on. I always try to do what is best for the horse."
So, for those fans who were wondering – yes, it's that Johnny Collins.
Dannhauser, a 4-year-old colt owned by Vision Racing LLC and trained by Kathleen O'Connell, and Anime, a 4-year-old filly owned by Robert Gerczak and trained by Carlos Garcia, won the allowance co-features Saturday on the turf at Tampa Bay Downs.
Dannhauser won by three lengths from favorite Ultimate X. under a well-timed, come-from-behind ride by Scott Spieth. He paid $9.20. In an oddity, there were dead-heats for both sixth and eighth places.
Anime grabbed the lead at the top of the stretch and rolled to a 3 ½-length victory from Par Lady under Jesse Garcia. She paid $6.60.

Garikoitz Bravo ensures last hurrah as Euskaltel say emotional goodbye to peloton
Euskaltel Euskadi bowed out of professional cycling on Tuesday in a discreet, yet honourable manner, at the Tour of Beijing.
Garikoitz Bravo successfully defended his tenth place on general classification, meaning the team had something to celebrate on what was otherwise a sad day for everyone connected with the team.
"This is like someone dying", sports director Álvaro González de Galdeano told www.esciclismo.com. "We'll only realize later on that the team is actually gone, and we'll remember the team fondly. We know it's all over now, but we're yet to really grasp it".
Speaking to the team's website upon the stage's conclusion, de Galdeano was pleased with how his charges ended 20 years of cycling history.
"We're pleased with the result - we got into the top ten. We put our faith in Garikoitz and it payed off. He even finished second in the young riders' classification.
"We finished this with the feeling of having done a good job".
By securing his best result in a WorldTour race in his young career, Bravo also bettered the team's performance last year that saw Iván Velasco and Samuel Sánchez coming in 11th and 12th respectively.
As de Galdeano put it, it was most certainly a most "dignified" way to bow out.

How delusional is John Hinderaker?
Obama thinks he is a good talker, but he is often undisciplined when he speaks. He needs to understand that as President, his words will be scrutinized and will have impact whether he intends it or not. In this regard, President Bush is an excellent model; Obama should take a lesson from his example. Bush never gets sloppy when he is speaking publicly. He chooses his words with care and precision, which is why his style sometimes seems halting. In the eight years he has been President, it is remarkable how few gaffes or verbal blunders he has committed. If Obama doesn't raise his standards, he will exceed Bush's total before he is inaugurated.I find it difficult to imagine the amount of delusion and cognitive dissonance that can produce such a paragraph. George W. Bush is the man whose spoken words have produced multiple books of "Bushisms," and multiple years of "Bushism" calendars with a quotation for every day of the year.
The Sadly No blog responded to this paragraph with a series of YouTube videos vividly depicting Bush gaffes. I prefer this Andy Dick contribution:

Stiff competition
It was only a couple months ago that we reviewed Parallels Desktop's main competitor, VMware 2.0, and it's definitely no coincidence that a new version of Parallels Desktop has launched so closely on the heels of its Mac virtualization rival. Competition between VMware and Parallels is fierce, and each of the two programs is very visibly trying to catch up and surpass the other in features and performance. From early on, Parallels has been the leader in desktop integration, and Parallels' Coherence mode—which lets you use Windows applications seamlessly in the OS X interface—makes so much sense that you would have to copy it to compete at usability. So VMware 2.0 did copy coherence mode, and it also managed to open up a lead by adding multi-core CPU and 64-bit client OS support. The new Parallels Desktop 4.0 is clearly designed to close that gap by adding:
- 64-bit guest OS support
- Support for up to 8 GB of RAM for VM client OSes
- Support for up to 8-way SMP for multicore CPUs
The most interesting thing about Parallels' multi-core implementation is that it correctly shows CPU cores as cores in the client OS, whereas VMware shows the cores as individual CPUs. This is significant because non-server distributions of Windows don't allow for more than two CPUs to be used. The result is that a VMware 2.0 virtual machine only accesses more than two CPUs under Windows if it's using an expensive server-grade version of Microsoft's OS. If you have a Mac Pro and you're looking for maximum performance out of your virtualized Windows install, this is an important distinction. But it's not all good news for Parallels users looking to make the jump to the next level.
Even after Parallels released a second build (3540) of Parallels Desktop 4.0 shortly after the launch, a release that was aimed at addressing a number of problems with the 4.0 gold version, the software still has many officially acknowledged issues that need addressing. Are these problems bad enough for you to steer clear of 4.0? Let's take a look.
- New: $79.99
- Upgrade: $39.99
System Requirements
- Processor: Intel-based Mac required
- Memory: 1 GB of RAM (2GB recommended to run Windows Vista)
- Storage: 450 MB of hard drive space for Parallels Desktop Installation, plus space to allocate to your virtual machine
- Operating system: Mac OS X 10.411 or later (including Mac OS X Leopard)
Test hardware
- Mobile:
- MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz
- Desktop:
- Mac Pro Xeon Core 2 Duo (4-core) 2.66 GHz
Test software
- Parallels Desktop 4.0 build 3540
- VMware Fusion 2.0.1
- Windows XP Pro 32-bit SP3
- Windows Vista 64-bit SP1
- Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop 64-bit
- Mac OS X Server 10.5.5
Getting Started
Parallels' New Virtual Machine Assistant hasn't changed much in version 4. It still does a great job of guessing what the operating system is by the installer disk, and it handles automated installs as well as it used to. However, it does need more options—there isn't an option to pick how many CPUs or how much RAM you want for the VM at install time. If you want to set those, you have to stop the install assistant after creating the VM file but before launching the OS installer, or you can do it after booting into the VM, which will force a restart. The latter is less convenient, but, given the problems that I saw with the Leopard Server installation, it's more stable than setting it afterward. Maybe that's why it was left out of the assistant.
Another slightly annoying thing about version 4.0 is that it boots into Coherence Mode with desktop mirroring on by default. While seasoned Parallels users will know what's going on when they see this, it will probably be very confusing for new users who may look for a Windows desktop but see only a taskbar at the bottom of their screen. Desktop mirroring causes problems with certain software, in my experience, so that's another good reason for it to be off by default.
VM Updates: cross your fingers, it could be a bumpy ride. If you're a Parallels Desktop 3 user, you have to upgrade your existing VM(s) before you can get up and running with version 4. You might want to create a backup copy of your VM files, since the upgrade process has been a bit of a mess for a lot of people (but less so with the newer build). Stories of unusable or disappearing VMs are not unheard of. Also, prepare yourself for a good wait as VM upgrades are slow; it took about an hour to upgrade my very basic XP VM, and reports of three-hour VM upgrades are common.
Just think of this as a really repetitive story.
If you can, I would recommend just doing a fresh install, because new VMs are less prone to virtual barnacles from what I've seen; it makes the setup process faster, to boot (I apologize for that pun).
