I thought it would be fun to share what are some of my favorite blogs to read and why...
But this is an exchange program. I'll share my favorite blogs to read and why, if you promise to share your favorite blogs to read and why.
Deal? OK deal.
My most favorite blogs are...
Why? This truly is my favorite blog. Just ask my husband, I forward him the link every time. Mr. Hyatt was the CEO of Tommy Nelson publishers and still resides as Chairman of the Board and consultant. He is a true leader. He leads his family and he seeks out to lead others well. The reason why I say true leader is because he desires to replace himself. To teach others how to lead. Leadership isn't a power trip for him. It isn't a notch on the resume. It is about helping others take over where he is. So rare to find that in a leader these days. I believe that is why so many people are drawn to him. If you are in leadership in anyway or desire to be and do it well, sign up for his feed immediately.
Why? I just smile when I think of Jon. Do you like how we are on a first name basis? Jon is the writer of Stuff Christians Like book and blog (which are great on a day you have some extra time). His flawless combination of satire and truth is magical. I laugh. Sometimes I want to cry. And 99.9% of the time I leave challenged to do something, anything, to make my life mean more than it currently does. He just started blogging a few years ago and has totally changed his life. He now works for the Dave Ramsey team, has 2 best sellers under his belt, and a slew of other things. He is proof to me that anything is possible if you don't give up on your calling.
Why? To say that Ann Voskamp has won my heart forever wouldn't be close to accurate. Because she has won my respect, a much harder prize to win. She has the most beautiful way of writing things. Truly a modern day poet. Some might think her writing is verbose, I think it is the pause in my day that was missing. She makes me stop. Makes me think. Makes me linger. And makes me want to be a more intentional mom, wife and friend. And for that I am thankful.
Why? This is a combination of some of my very favorite preachers/teachers. I love it when people talk to you straight. No fluff. I don't need any more fluff in my life. I don't need any more "I think I can" mentalities. I want truth and I want it straight up. And these men never fail to serve it like that. (Side-note: I'd also highly recommend signing up for all of their podcasts. If you have to choose just one, Mark Driscoll is my favorite.)
Now it's your turn. What are you favorite blogs to read and why? Also, be sure to link to your blog just in case I don't have it (or so my readers can check you out too). Also, I think it would fun to know why you read blogs? What kind of blogs are you drawn to? I'll share my answer in the comments too (gotta be fair).

This Cookbooks are possibly my guilty pleasure. I read them like novels. I try and be restrained in my collection but I sometimes succumb to a new one!
This is the bottom shelf. I need to weed those magazines. The two big tomes on the right are The Joy of Cooking & Mrs Beeton's Household Management. I use the books and folders on this shelf a lot. The magazines not so much.
This shelf I use a lot too. The Hummingbird Cafe Cookbook is being hidden by some of the thinner books but it is a current baking favorite along with Ladies a Plate.
The things on the top shelf I don't use very often. They tend to be more for reference but the Anne Willan French one and the Thai Food one do get consulted from time to time.
Do you have a cookbook collection?

Our September days are numbered. The trees are thinking about turning yellow around us. The weather can't quite decide to stay warm or cool. And the wonderful anticipation of fall and all of its traditions are on our minds, daily.
It is like the coming season is anticipating baby Rowan's arrival just as much as we are...

5 1/2 years trying...so many loses. Fallopian tube removed, other fallopian tube 10% damaged, Dr. Said no chance naturally, wait for a year on ivf waiting list get the call that it's our turn in 2 weeks...BAM pregnant NATURALLY!!! I'm officially 17 weeks tomorrow. So excited but constantly worried!!!
Just wanted to check in and see how all my old ttc friends are. Haven't been on here in two years
hello everyone. i havent been on in a while and i see that the past few months have brought a lot of new ladies onto this site.
so just a quick update, i did 4 rounds of comid and sadly had a bfn at the end of each month. Im dissapointed to say the least but im not giving up yet!!! Im taking a break for the summer to get the crap out of my system (clomid was rough on me) and i would also like to lose some weight.gained 5 pounds per month on clomid =20 pounds ...ugh ....clomid, why did i do this to myself???
for those who dont know my history;
2002 son
2006 miscarriage
2008 daughter
2010 son -died 3 days after birth (full term)
2012 miscarriage
2013 ectopic loss of left tube
My doctor wants to check hubbys swimmers and then possibly other meds. im wondering if maybe i should just skip ahead to ivf?!
im 31 I know Im not old but because of my history im concerned that if we dont do something drastic we may be waiting a looooong time. what are your thoughts ladies??? i hope you are all well and congrats to everyone who got their bfp!!
so... my ovulation tests came with a preg test. Tonight I figured wth I might as well take it since I hate clear blue and want hubby to buy me a better brand when its time to test. so I pee on it, walk away, come back maybe 5 mins later to toss it and I see a faint plus sign???!!?!
so theres two problems with this
#1 This brand is a big fat liar
#2 Im pretty sure Im only 6dpo.
I dont temp but I do use opks. I forgot to use my opk on the 16th and then my opk looked positive on jan 17 and I ran out of them so stopped using them after that. I figured I ovulated on the 19th? so that would put me at 6 or 7 dpo? unless I ovulated earlier?? Omg why am I getting so carried away?? theres no way its real... right?
I tried to upload a pic but the file is too large and when it was resized the line vanished..so I had to play with the contrast. Its an obvious faint blue line irl.
ok, I believe I am 6 dpo today.
while taking clomid I had ZERO side effects besides a headache that lasted for a few days. I was positive it didnt work for me. So possitive that I was going to ask my doctor for 100mgs next cycle (Im on 50) But.......
4 dpo my ovaries feel like they're burning. It only lasts a few hours but I start to wonder if this is my first side effect : ) Im so excited, does this mean clomid is working for me?? 5dpo I have sharp stabbing.pains in my bum....wtf??!! this lasts all.day and is super uncomfortable. by 6 pm my ovaries are very sore and going from sitting to standing and vice versa is painful. feels like my ovaries are bruised. I experience my first hot flash in the middle of the night, it actually feels like im on fire and happens two more time during the night.while trying to get back to sleep I remind myself that I WANTED side effects. : / 6dpo this morning I wake up and realize the lightning bolt stabbing pain is now in my vagina and butt. now Im worried and its kinda painful.
Has anyone experienced this or know what it is?I dont want to turn to doctor google on this one because I know its gonna be rectal cancer and herpes lol
so this was my first month taking clomid 50mg cd 4-8. I just got a positive opk yesterday but Im worried already. I've had ZERO side effects besides an annoying headache for 5 days. last night and today I've been having ovulation pains but that happens to me even without the clomid. so here are my concerns #1. does the lack of side effects mean its not working??#2. I only have my right fallopian tube and my O pain is ALWAYS on my left (thats where I feel it this time as well).does that mean Im only ovulating on my left every month?? or is it possible to ovulate on one side and feel it on the other?
My doctor is not monitoring me so I have no way of seeing if Im ovulating or on what side. I ws kind of hoping to feel O pain on both sides now that Im on clomid : /
so this is my first cycle of clomid. I took my first pill last night and so far no side effects (fx) :)
I have been drinking red raspberry leaf tea for a few months and this morning while brewing some I had this odd feeling that I should google red raspberry tea and clomid. I was surprised to find that this is a big no,no as the tea boosts estrogen and clomids job is to block it, so the two should not be taken together. I read a few stories of women drinking it while taking clomid and the cycles they didnt drink it they ended up pregnant. I wanted to drink it to help my lining, so im glad i googled it first. I also read an article about how you should not take ANY herbal supplements while on clomid also no asprin.
Just thought I would share that info with you ladies.I had no idea : /
Im hoping I didnt screw myself by drinking it yesterday!
so after all the stress and nerves for the past 24h Im happy to report that I got clomid today :)
my doctor was super AMAZING as usual (seriously I LOVE this man!!!) we chatted for a bit and he agreed that it seems as though Im not ovulating 1 out of every 3 months so with that and only one fallopian tube he gave me 4 months of 50mgclomid for cd 5-9. I then spent the afternoon searching for clomid at every pharmacy we drove by. turns out there is a shortage here and no one is expecting any more until APRIL!! I finally found a pharmacy that had 10 tablets left and i bought them all mwahahaha
so af is due in 2- 3 days (if i ovulated this month) and I can start taking them. The thing I find a little weird is whenever I read stories about other women on clomid they talk about monitored cycles. My dr didnt mention anything about that Im just supposed to call asap if Im pregnant or having bad side effects. How do I know if im ovulating on the right side???
Im so happy to be starting my new year with such great news! I hope 2015 brings us all a lot of happiness.
I will be thinking of all you ladies tonight ( while babysitting my 5 week old niece) and counting downthe seconds until 2015 :)
So tomorrow is my long awaited doctor appointment. I have been looking forward to this for so long. my appointment has been changed 6 x this month but I have been assured that it wont be changed again. I adore my doctor. He delivered my little boy 4 years ago and revived him (born blue) sadly my little guy only lived for 3 days but I am so thankful my doctor gave me those beautiful days with my son. My doctor also sat with me in the recovery room after my ectopic 2 years ago as I explained to him while bawling my eyes out that the doctor who did the surgery told me he removed my tube and my other one looked like it was no good. My doctor said "Were gonna look ourselves and figure it all out" ( the other doctor was pushing ivf) my doctor sent me for the dye test and my remaining tube is in excellent condition. so now after trying on our own for 2 years and me realizing im not ovulating every month I have an appointment to discuss my options (Im thinking maybe clomid??) So why after such a long wait, and me being so excited am i feeling down about this? I suddenly am a nervous wreck and Im really scared. Maybe Im scared of more bad news? maybe he will send me home and say "just keep trying"???
Also I tested today at 10 dpo and it was bfn.Not that Im shocked but I guess I was holding onto the hope that maybe I could do it without help.
Trying so hard to not lose my positive attitude. please send me some positive vibes ladies : )
thats just my overall feeling... just blah.Not hungry not sick, just blah!
Im 8 dpo today and for the past 3 days ive been feeling... well gross i guess is the only way to explain it. I remember feeling like this with my other pregnancies but not until a week or two after my bfp. so who knows?! Iwas so looking forward to stuffing my face over the holidays but I barely ate anything. Im exhausted! Im not getting my hopes up for a bfp (who am i kidding, My hopes are up every cycle) Maybe its just christmas stress but wouldnt it be hilarious if I got my bfp after 2 years ttc and my doctor appointment to be prescribed clomid or other treatment in only 2 more days....... actually, it wouldnt be hillarious, thats usually how things happen for me lol
af is due on jan 2 so I guess I will just have to wait and see. And hey, if Im not preg Im still excited to see my doctor on monday and hopefully move on to my next step in this crazy ttc journey.
I hope everyone had an excellent christmas and congrats to those who got their christmas bfps!

Apart from the A-Star concept car, Maruti Suzuki plans to launch another small hatchback, the Suzuki Splash, at the Auto Expo 2008. Suzuki Splash will be positioned between Zen Estilo and Swift and can be called the next generation Wagon R. Splash is expected to be priced around Rs 3.5 lakh, the price of the Wagon R.
The Splash is a great looker - just take a look at the photos of the Splash on this page and you will know what we mean!
A 1.2 litre petrol and 1.3 litre diesel engine will power the Splash. Like the A-Star concept, the Splash will also be an A-segment car and will be produced at Maruti's Manesar plant. Osamu Suzuki, Suzuki Motor chairman, has said that the premium hatchback Splash will be manufactured in India and will be available in the Indian market by mid-2008. Splash will be launched in Europe and other overseas markets in 2008.
The Suzuki Splash was first displayed at the 2006 Paris motor show and then at the Frankfurt Motor Show. In terms of design, Splash is reminiscent of the Swift and the SX4, which is not surprising considering the styling team for Splash was led by Akira Kamio who was also a critical part of the Swift styling team.
The Splash has been described by Suzuki as a multiutility vehicle for small families. The Suzuki Splash has spacious interiors though the Indian Splash will be functional to the point of being bare with safety features like seatbelt force limiters for the front seat. The dashboard will be fuss free in keeping with the Splash's youthful, fresh look. The Splash also has high seating positions and good visibility.
The engineering shows a judicious use of space. For example, the rear seats of the Splash can be folded back to make a flat load floor and a compartment below for storage. Cute and affordable, the Splash is very likely to make a huge splash in the Indian market.
The Splash is expected to make its Indian debut at the Auto Expo, and price and specs would be hopefully revealed by then.

Steel Ministry organises National Steel Consumers' Council meet in Bengaluru
|Source: The Hitavada Date: 01 Jul 2018 11:15:30
Staff Reporter,
The Union Minister of Steel, Chaudhary Birender Singh chaired the meeting of the recently constituted National Steel Consumers' Council of Ministry of Steel at Bengaluru today. Bengaluru is strategically significant to only for Karnataka but also for its neighboring states in southern region. The meeting was attended by Binoy Kumar, Secretary-Designate, Ministry of Steel, Govt. of India along with senior officials from the Steel Ministry besides state government officials and captains of the steel industry.
In this gathering, the Mobile App of MSTC, a public sector enterprise under the Ministry of Steel – M3 (MSTC Metal Mandi) was launched, which is supposed to bring the buyer closer to the seller, removing the Constraints mainly for small buyers. This is in line with Government of India's initiatives under Digital India.
Addressing the Council, Singh outlined India's position in the global steel industry and mentioned that there is a huge potential for growth of steel demand in India. The per capita steel consumption of India at around 68 kg is much less than one third of the world average of around 208 kg.
Against this backdrop, Steel Consumer Council have an important role to play, as both producers and users come together to find innovative and out of box ideas to carry forward the industry.
The issues of demand, supply, product innovations and logistics will require serious deliberations. Logistics is a critical area and the consumer council has to draw the expected road map of logistics for seeking priority attention of policy makers on urgent basis.
Country is expected to have growing demand for value added and sophisticated grade of steel for important initiatives like Make in India, Pradhan
Mantri Awas Yojna, Pradhan Mantri Gramin Vikas Yojna and Defence needs. To meet the needs of R & D and innovation, Steel Ministry has created Steel Research and Technology Mission of India.
Initiatives such as 'Make in India' and 'Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (Housing for All) by 2022' are expected to stimulate steel demand across the country. Policy interventions of the Government like amendment of General Financial Rules to consider life cycle cost of a project in government procurements, notification of National Steel Policy 2017 which envisages a steel making capacity of 300 MT by 2030-31 and implementation of a landmark policy for
providing preference to domestically manufactured iron and steel products in Government procurement, besides thrust of the government on infrastructure development issue to have a positive impact on the domestic demand of steel.
Steel contributes about 2% to GDP of India. Indian economy is on a growth trajectory. The Government has identified infrastructure as a priority sector, which is bound to bolster the GDP growth rate.
Considering the advantages of steel based structures like lower life cycle cost, high design flexibility with better aesthetics, steel is a major material component in infrastructure development. All flag ship programs like 100 Smart Cities Mission, Housing for All, Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation, Railways Up gradation and modernization of defense sector are expected to use domestic steel.
The Government's initiatives planned in various key sectors are expected to drive the growth in India's current GDP, which will ultimately provide additional push required to increase the domestic steel demand in the short to medium term.
The Steel Industry and users must work together to promote the usage of steel in areas like crash barriers in hilly areas, railways, development of special grades for energy and medical purposes etc.

Troy Trojans (8-2) at Texas State Bobcats (2-8)
|Date & Time
|Saturday November 26, 2016, 4:00 PM (EST)
|The Line
The Line: Texas State Bobcats +27.5 -- Over/Under:
|TV Channel
The Troy Trojans will travel to play the Texas State Bobcats in a Sun Belt college football game on Saturday.
The Texas State Bobcats are 2-8 (0-6) this season after losing to New Mexico State by a score of 50-10 in their last game. Texas State has lost 6 games in a row and is currently last in the Sun Belt standings. The Texas State offense is averaging 20.2 points per game with 76.3 rushing yards and 237.2 passing yards per game. Tyler Jones is completing 64.8% of his passes for 2168 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions for Texas State. Stedman Mayberry has rushed for 544 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Tyler Jones has added 18 yards and 5 scores for the Bobcats. Stedman Mayberry has caught 40 passes for 355 yards and 2 touchdowns, while Tyler Watts has added 35 catches for 309 yards and 1 touchdown for Texas State. The Texas State defense is giving up 41.7 points per game with 233.6 rushing yards and 256.9 passing yards per game. Bryan London has led the Texas State defense with 113 tackles and 7 tackles for loss, while Gabe Lloyd has added 84 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, and 2 sacks. Marcus Ripley has gone 5-5 on field goals, with a long of 37 yards.
The Troy Trojans are 8-2 (5-1) this season after losing to Arkansas State by a score of 35-3 in their last game. Troy needed to win this game, but took an absolute beating on their home field. The Troy offense is averaging 34.6 points per game with 183.2 rushing yards and 269.6 passing yards per game. Brandon Silvers is completing 62.2% of his passes for 2509 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions for Troy. Jordan Chunn has rushed for 1079 yards and 10 scores, while Josh Anderson has added 236 yards and 1 touchdown for Troy. Emanuel Thompson has caught 59 passes for 587 yards and 5 touchdowns, while Deondre Douglas has added 50 catches for 560 yards and 5 touchdowns for the Trojans. The Troy defense is giving up 22.9 points per game with 115.7 rushing yards and 256.6 passing yards per game. William Lloyd has led the Troy defense with 52 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, and 1 sack, while Cedarius Rookard has added 38 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, and 2 interceptions. Ryan Kay has gone 15-19 on field goals, with a long of 47 yards.
Troy is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 road games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 November games. The under is 7-1-1 in Troy's last 9 conference games. Texas State is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games against a team with a winning record and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games. The under is 4-0 in Texas State's last 4 games.
Troy came out flat and played a poor game last week, but will be going up against a much lesser team this week. Texas State is looking for their first conference win and will be at home. Troy should take advantage of a poor Texas State defense and get the big win.

While I absolutely LOVE (okay, more like love/hate) the 21 Day Fix Extreme workouts, I give a lot of credit for my results to the Eating Plan, simple to follow meal guide and easy to use containers..and…THE RECIPES. This book has been my food bible since I bought the program. Even though I'm not currently following the meal plan 100% (I will be starting April 13th!), I still refer to the book at least once a day.
One weekend during my first round of the fix, I made the Mini Vegetable Egg Cups from the book. They will now be a weekend breakfast staple in our house. SO GOOD. And so easy!!!
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 12 large eggs
- sea salt (to taste)
- ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1 (10-oz) bag of baby spinach; finely chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper; finely chopped
- 2 green onions; finely chopped (I don't like onions so I leave these out)
- Heat oven to 375* F
- Light coat a twelve-cup muffin tin with cooking spray
- place eggs in a large bowl; whisk to blend
- Season with salt and pepper
- Add spinach, bell pepper, and onion; mix well
- Evenly pour egg mixture into muffin cups
- Bake 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of cups comes out clean
** I bake for 12-15 minutes and then top eggs with fresh mozzarella cheese and bake another 5 minutes. Once I take them out of oven, I top with diced tomatoes. YUM.
Try it. Enjoy it.

How Touch ID Can Be Fooled With Play-Doh
I get that the whole idea of this demonstration is to show the benefits of a 2000dpi sensor compared to the 500dpi sensor on today's phones. That said, I think it is hilarious how they make it seem like crooks are running around making exact molds of someone fingerprint to break into your phone. Besides, even the new sensor doesn't prevent crooks from chopping off your fingers (faster than molding and Play-Doh) or forcing you at gunpoint to unlock your device. Doesn't anyone watch movies anymore?

Accra – The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) says it is ready to partner with the UN system in Ghana to develop capacity building programs that would aim to raise the standard of journalism in Ghana.
The Association said whilst it is true that the media environment is relatively free from restrictions and Ghanaian journalists have come a long way to enjoy this freedom, the same cannot be said of the quality of journalism being provided in the country. The association thus called for support to enhance the capacity of practicing journalists especially as presidential and parliamentary elections draw near. The Association was particularly keen on strengthening journalists' skills in ethical journalism, specialized journalism and accountability.
This came to light during a visit on September 6 to the Executives of the GJA by UNIC Pretoria Director in Charge of sub-Saharan Africa, Marie-Evelyne Petrus-Barry. Ms. Petrus-Barry was on a 3-day mission in Ghana. She acknowledged the important role of journalists to promoting the development agenda of the United Nations and expressed the hope for future collaboration between the GJA and UNIC Accra. She advised the Executives of the GJA to be proactive in addressing some of the challenges being faced by the media.
The GJA is the association of both private and public media journalists in Ghana.

A Bismarck man is accused of sending child pornography to 20 people.
The Bismarck Tribune reports that 50-year-old Curtis McGarvey is charged with 20 counts of promoting sexual performance by a minor, as well as one count of child neglect and one count of terrorizing. A judge on Monday set McGarvey's bond at $250,000.
The Burleigh County Sheriff's Department identified a number of social media accounts and email addresses involved in the incident and traced some of those accounts to McGarvey's residence and places of work.
Police say McGarvey is also connected to a bomb threat at a high school banquet.
Justin Vinje, McGarvey's attorney, says this client maintains his innocence. Vinje says McGarvey has lived in the community his whole life and "really has no record of any kind."

Economics Offerings for CSOM Students
All Carroll School of Management students, regardless of their area of concentration, are required to take Principles of Economics (ECON1131 and ECON1132) and Statistics (OPER1135) as part of the CSOM Core. Students entering Boston College as freshmen take the Principles courses in the College of Arts and Sciences. Please consult the University website for advanced placement policies and qualifying scores.
In addition, students from the Carroll School of Management may choose Economics as an area of concentration. Students with a serious interest in Economics are encouraged to fulfill all the requirements of the Arts and Sciences major.
Four courses beyond the CSOM Core are required for the concentration (a minimum of 21 credit hours overall):
- Intermediate Theory Courses
- Microeconomic Theory (ECON2201 or ECON2203)
- Macroeconomic Theory (ECON2202 or ECON2204)
- Elective Courses
- Two electives chosen from ECON2205 through ECON3399, except ECON3345 and ECON3380
At least one of those courses must be chosen from ECON3300-ECON3399 (except ECONC3336, ECON3345, ECON3380).
- Two electives chosen from ECON2205 through ECON3399, except ECON3345 and ECON3380
ECON2201 and ECON2202 have a prerequisite of one semester of calculus, which is fulfilled by the University's math core requirement for CSOM students.
ECON2203 and ECON2204 have additional prerequisites. CSOM Honors Program students who wish to take these courses should read the information provided in the description of the Economics Major.
At least one of the Intermediate Theory courses must be completed by the end of the junior year.
Normally, students will have completed both Principles courses before taking either Intermediate Theory course, although we will allow students who have finished one Principles course to take the associated Intermediate Theory course concurrently with the second Principles course. For example, a student who has completed ECON1131 may take ECON2201 concurrently with ECON1132. Students should complete at least one Intermediate Theory course before beginning the electives, although we recognize that scheduling constraints may make this difficult. Students who need to take an elective before completing an Intermediate Theory course should register for a 2000-level elective that has only Principles as a prerequisite. It is also possible, with permission of the professor, to take a 3000-level elective concurrently with its Intermediate Theory prerequisite.
General Department policy is that students take both Intermediate Theory courses and at least one of the two electives in the College of Arts and Sciences. The remaining course may, subject to Department approval of the specific course, be taken during the summer session at Boston College or another institution, during the academic year as part of a study-abroad program, or during the academic year through the Woods College of Advancing Studies. Students who plan to take a elective course abroad must meet the Department's qualifications for study abroad. They must have completed both Principles courses and at least one of the Intermediate Theory courses with a minimum grade of B- in that course prior to foreign study. Students who want to study abroad must contact the Office of International Programs to apply for study abroad and to plan their semester or year abroad. Transfer students should meet with the Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Economics Department to discuss their specific situations.

How to Reset a 2006 Impala Computerby Alibaster Smith
The computer on your 2006 Chevy Impala generates and stores trouble codes related to the vehicle's emissions control system. These codes are stored on the computer until you run a diagnostic test and retrieve them. Once retrieved, you can fix your Impala, but the codes will remain on the computer. To get rid of them, you'll need to clear the codes using a special tool called an OBD (onboard diagnostic) scan tool. These tools can be found in most auto parts stores in the electronics section.
Pull down on the fuse panel cover in the driver's side foot well below the steering column with your fingers.
Locate the open OBD port (a rectangular port) to the left of the main panel.
Plug the OBD plug from the scan tool into the open port.
Turn the ignition key to the on position but don't crank the engine.
Press the "reset" or "clear" button on your scan tool (the exact phrase of the button varies depending on the make and model of scan tool you own). This will clear the codes from the computer.
Start your Impala's engine and drive at normal highway speeds for about 30 minutes to allow the computer to reset itself.

Ayurveda approach
In Ayurveda, early hair loss is due to body type
and imbalance of the doshas. Excess pitta at the root, in the
sebaceous glands, or folliculitis (inflammation of the hair follicles),
can cause hair loss. Hence, persons with excess pitta in their
body or those who are pitta types tend to lose their crown glory
in life. Hair becomes thin and even gray.
Nourishing food for the hair is vital for healthy
hair but it is also important to remove excess pitta.
· Aloe Vera Drink
Take 1/3 cup of aloe vera juice, or some aloe vera gel with a
pinch of cumin 3 times a day. Drink this for about 3 months.
· Nourishing diet
To keep your hair healthy, include diary products like cheese,
yogurt and milk. If, you do not digest diary products well, take
calcium supplements which also contains zinc and magnesium. They
can also benefit your skin, bones and teeth. Coconut, cooked apples,
cabbage, white radish and rakon are also useful.
· Supplements
As mentioned above, taking mineral supplements too can improve
the condition of your hair. Choose a supplement that contains
approximately the following daily dosage of:
Zinc 60 mg.
Magnesium 600 mg.
Calcium 1,200 mg.
Take them before bedtime with some water.
· Sesame Power
These humble but powerful white sesame seeds are a great source
of nourishment for your hair. A handful of these contain 1,200
mg. of calcium and magnesium.
· Herbs for Hair
The following herbal formula is a great nourishment for healthy
hair. It also helps build up bones and teeth.
3 parts jatamamsi
4 parts bhringaraj
5 parts dashamoola
Add ½ teaspoon of this herbal mixture to
a cup of goat's milk, heated to a boil and drink before
Head massages too can help reduce and pacify pitta,
and improve hair condition. The massages itself improves blood
circulation at the root of the hair, bringing more nutrients to
encourage hair growth.
· Brahmi or bhringaraj oil
Massage the scalp with either of brahmi or bhringaraj oil can
help prevent hair loss. Do this before going to bed and wear a
hair cap to prevent staining on your pillow.
· Coconut Oil Massage
This is especially good to pacify pitta. Rub some coconut oil
on your scalp and the soles of your feet before going to bed.
Wear a hair cap or wrap your head with a towel, and put on old
socks on your feet to avoid any stains on your pillow and bed.
· Vitamin E oil
Another good source of preventing or slowing hair loss is vitamin
E oil. Massage your hair with it gently, paying attention to the
thinning area on the scalp.
· Neck and Shoulder Massage
You can also extend these massages to your neck and shoulders
to loosen the muscles, relief pain, reduce stress and stiffness.
Stress and stiffness in the neck and whiplash from car accidents
can also be the cause of hair loss. Give your neck and shoulders
a light massage before a shower.
Here are more ways to relieve stress from the neck
and shoulders that can result in hair loss:
· Neck Exercises
Simple neck exercises help loosen tension from your neck and help
you to relax. You can do this at the office and even in your car,
waiting for traffic.
Turn your head to the left 3 times, to the right
3 times and lifting it up 3 times, moving it down towards the
chest 3 times. Then roll it gently in a circle 3 times in each
· Yoga for Neck
Try the Shoulder Stand, Camel pose, Cobra pose and Cow pose to
help relief tension from the neck. This has an affect in keeping
hair healthy.
· Meditation
Meditation can also be effective in reducing stress and tension,
not just the neck and shoulders but the whole body. Try sitting
quietly and listen to your breathing or do the Empty Bowl meditation.
· Tea for Anti-stress
Try this herbal tea to help you deal with stress. Make tea with
equal portions of jatamamsi and brahmi. Add 1 teaspoon of this
mix to a cup of hot water, steep and drink twice or 3 times a

Officials of the Forest Conservation Department are perturbed by the decision of a senior forest conservator to alienate a 90 perch block of land of the Udawattakele forest reserve to a leading hotel in Kandy.
The officials said the officer concerned had instructed the Divisional Secretary, Kandy Four Gravets and Gangawata Korala to proceed with the required documentation to release the block of land based on a 12-year-old cabinet decision of a previous government.
A top Cabinet Minster in the Government has shares in the hotel.
They said that the relevant gazette notification to alienate the block of land was now being drafted and that the official responsible for this land grab might have provided misinformation to the President and Environment Minister.
Forest Department officials said the senior officials of the department were planning to alienate 90perches of the Udawatta forest reserve to the businessman concerned to expand a leading tourist hotel in Kandy and that the hotel company was already occupying the land illegally.
"The Range Forest Conservator had filed action against them in the Kandy Magistrate's Court on the charge of causing a damage of Rs.73, 885,000 to the forest reserve. In 2005 the then Tourism Minister Anura Bandaranaike submitted a cabinet paper to alienate the land to the hotel company in exchange of a block of land in another location belonging to the company. However, it was foiled by the provincial forest conservation officials and other organizations that protested against the move. It is in doubt that the court case might have been brushed under the carpet due to political interference.
The Udawattakele forest reserve which had been used as a royal park during the reign of the Kandyan kings was declared a forest reserve by the British by an extra ordinary gazette notification under the Forest Conservation Ordinance. The value of the land which is rich in bio-diversity would run into billions of rupees. However the Forest Conservator (Planning and Progress Control) has taken steps to alienate the land and instructed the Divisional Secretary to release it from the forest reserve.
Forest Conservation Officials said that the Forest Conservation Ordinance does not provide for the proposed exchange of land from the forest reserve for one belonging to the hotel company and that it would create a bad precedent creating serious consequences. They are surprised how a cabinet approval that had been laid by successive governments for 12 years could be implemented without the knowledge of the present cabinet. (Ajithlal Shanthaudaya)

well, we do not know whether the minister is behind the deal or not. There's no indication in the article that he has pushed the forest officer to do it. It can be that the owner of the hotel himself has done it. Heard that its a hotel right next to the forest reserve.

For Olivia Asuncion, who was born with a physical disability and has used a wheelchair since age 13, fire drills and building evacuations were always a source of panic and anxiety.
"I, for one, have been in many fire drills and evacuations where I definitely did not know what to do or where to go," said Asuncion, who graduated from the University of Oregon with a master's degree in architecture on Monday. She has a condition called osteogenesis imperfecta, which results in brittle bones that are more prone to injury.
"I'm very fortunate that I am small enough so that if worse comes to worst, anyone could just pluck me out of my chair and take me down the stairs. But not all disabilities are the same," she said.
Since she started attending the UO, however, she's alchemized this concern into research. Just three weeks before graduation, she placed first in an international competition for the Student Best Design Award from the Environmental Design Research Association.
Her design, which she started working on at the UO in fall 2013, investigates the issues concerning people with physical disabilities during building evacuations — and their potential solutions.
Informal interviews with physically disabled UO students aided Asuncion's design work and provided anecdotal insight. One student told her that the idea of evacuating from a building's upper floors is a scary and daunting experience.
"One of the most pertinent things she said was that she feels unprepared if there's ever an evacuation on campus because of a lack of evacuation protocols," said Asuncion. "Finding your way around buildings is really difficult."
Asuncion's design aims to improve fire safety and building evacuation for people with disabilities by making improvements to evacuation maps so they can be read by people with visual impairments and designing architectural wayfinding solutions that make it easier to navigate a building using tactile maps with texture and color contrast.
Her design also offered an accessible vertical means of egress, which allows building occupants to evacuate independently, and develop "a more visible and comfortable area of refuge" for those unable to evacuate, where occupants can find shelter in an event of an emergency, said Asuncion.
Asuncion, who graduated with a bachelor's degree in architecture from the University of California in Berkeley in 2010, used Lawrence Hall and the John E. Jaqua Academic Center as case studies, but says her proposed design can be implemented elsewhere.
"I think a lot of the solutions I proposed apply to multi-family housing, commercial buildings, or entertainment buildings," she said. "It's most beneficial to have it be accessible for everyone."
Architecture professor Jenny Young, who served as Asuncion's research advisor, taught the seminar and says she encouraged Asuncion to continue her work on it.
"She has investigated an important topic – accessible evacuation – through multiple lenses: a comprehensive literature search, her own experience and on-the-spot experiments, and interviews with a broad range of stakeholders," said Young.
Asuncion presented her poster during a four-day EDRA symposium in Los Angeles, and was announced as first-place winner on May 30.
According to the EDRA website, the Student Best Design Award criteria call for a design that demonstrates thorough research and an understanding of the relationship between human needs and the built environment, quality of graphic communication and representation, and alignment of the design with EDRA's mission. EDRA accepts submissions of urban, landscape, architecture, interior, and industrial designs.
"It was a great honor and privilege to receive first place in the Student Best Design Award at EDRA," wrote Asuncion via email. Though, she adds, the award was just "icing on a very delicious cake" compared with being able to share her research with other environmental design professionals.
Asuncion hopes that this research will encourage environmental designers to learn more about the inaccessibility of building evacuation.
"These changes can make architecture more beautiful but also widely usable. If we sear these lessons of accessibility and life safety and design into our brains instead of all those code-instituted measurements, we can potentially get rid of the term 'universal design' and turn it into just 'design.' Then the spaces that we build will be more inclusive, seamless, beautiful and safe," she said.

Some 30 foreign yachters are now wintering in the quiet waters of a new harbour near the mouth of the Tiber, the first custom-made maritime haven in Rome since ancient times.
Crowds of curious visitors most of them from the city now throng the Tourist Port of Rome, a vast enclosure between the Tiber estuary and Ostia Lido, which opened 20 months ago. The great originality of the marina is that it is a daring resuscitation of the port of Claudius (see Romes ancient ports below), or at least of its most striking feature: a long, monumental arcade or colonnade, the pillars of its arches now, as then, vested in ivory-coloured travertine marble. Today it is a vast pedestrian area, a kilometre long, doubling as the marinas quayside shopping mall.
Facing out over two yacht basins populated by craft from all over Europe, the arcades 80 chic boutiques and stores offer everything from ladies shoes to storm lanterns, from fantasy sunglasses to newspapers from London and Frankfurt. Loungers gaze out over a forest of tall masts and flapping pennants from outside tables under the arches or smart and roomy restaurants with arresting murals. Alessandro Maddaleni, a bartender, said: The boats used to put in at Civitavecchia, but thats one-and-a-half hours from Rome, and here were only 30 minutes away.
I think we all do pretty good business here, acknowledged Roberta, who looks after La Cornucopia selling bright gadgets for the bathroom and kitchen. We get a lot of people, especially at weekends, and they like it because there are no cars or motorini, the air is good, its safe for the kids. Of course, if it rains, theres nobody. Thats the difference from an indoor shopping centre.
The marina, a totally private venture embarked on by a firm called ATI (Attivit Turistica Imprenditori), can berth over 800 craft, which tie up along 16 piers and are assured of calm water by two curving arms of seawall reaching towards a split-circle harbour entrance. On hand is also a naval shipyard, and, interestingly, all the moorings are for sale to would-be investors seeking what are alleged to be healthy returns. The smallest water area costs e35,000.
The marinas nerve centre is its control tower, modelled on the 16th-century Tor S. Michele a stones throw away. This old naval defence bastion designed by Michelangelo now stands in the middle of a thriving bird sanctuary, the Parco LIPU, sheltering 170 rare species, and only yards from a monument marking the spot where the poet and film-maker Pier Paolo Pasolini was murdered 27 years ago.
Its all been a great success, confirmed Cristina Manzo in ATIs head office. On a summer weekend, we have about 50,000 visitors, and some 30,000 in other months, including winter if the sun is out. As for the yachts, 350 are here permanently and were actually taking business away from Gaeta (about 120 km to the south). But in summer, Id say 60 per cent of boats putting in here are foreign. Weve some 30 foreigners who are here now, spending the entire winter with us.
One of them, Peter Winnett from near Felixstowe, left Britain on his yacht Too Shy five years ago and has never been back, obviously enjoying every minute. Everything you have got in your home, I have in mine, simply on a smaller scale. Of his wife Sue and his cat Ollie he said: We are total live-aboards, wintering in harbour and then from May onwards, when berthing prices shoot up 50-80 per cent, cruising around, keeping in touch with like-minded English-speaking mariners through a regular radio hook-up called Mednet. Thats how we get to know where everybodys wintering.
Winnett considered the Rome marina excellent and extremely helpful, doubtless partly because they charged him only e1,200 for being there from October to April. He has spent his time fixing his boat theres been a lot of work to do on it and frequently exploring Rome. Were having a wonderful time.
This summer he will be sailing around the islands of Croatia with his friends. One of them, another winterer, is Chris Ennor, a cheery and burly Australian who left home with his wife on Magic Carpet, a catamaran, in July 1994 . Yes, weve been around a bit Indonesia, the Black Sea, Rumania, Ukraine, you name it. He also seemed content, and introduced the crew members, a furry cat from Thailand and a tugging dog from Turkey.

Romes ancient ports
Emperor Claudius built a new port for Rome in 42 AD to replace the original one at nearby Ostia, which had become inadequate for trade and was silting up. In time this too became insufficient, and in 103 AD it was incorporated into a new, larger port by Emperor Trajan to satisfy the ravenous appetite of a city then importing half a million tonnes of grain and 60,000 tonnes of wine a year. A striking hexagonal structure, Trajans port is still visible today from planes landing at the nearby Fiumicino airport. There are almost no traces of the Port of Claudius.

A controversial new ad for Sprite, that has been doing the rounds online and has been revealed as a fake, is a very interesting marketing experiment.
The Huffington Post reported on the ad, which it claimed had been banned in Germany, but has now been revealed as a fake originating from the US. The TVC has no official affiliation with Coke or its agencies. The fake ad can be watched here. Its interesting to see the presenters refer to Singapore's recent Burger King ad scandal.
Its also quite fascinating about the media storm this ad, which is not real, has created. Has the kerfuffle actually indirectly helped Sprite, because it wasn't involved and looks responsible compared with the oral sex ad? Or not? With what seems like a constant recent stream of offensive and controversial ads, are brands now looked on better if they play it safe in their marketing, or should they be edgy?

My sister, Riada, invited me to join her organization. She and her friends are volunteers who teach children in outback near our city.
Saturday, October 15 they planned to go there and my sister asked me to come with them. She said that they need me to teach Science (I'm a Physics Department student). And then I also asked two of my friends to come too. So that day we went to somewhere I didn't know.
When we arrived, there were so many kids who come to study with us. Since they live far away from mid-town, they have to study by themselves because there are no courses there. There were a few kids who came to me and asked me to teach them. I was so happy because they trusted me to teach them. I taught them Bahasa and English (They didn't want to learn science, haha).
When we finished our lesson, some more kids came to me and my friends, they chatted a little with us because they never met us before. They also taught us their local dialect. We were so happy because we could help them, they were really cute and smart kids. There's no words that can represent my feelings about them. At last when we had to go back home, they asked us to come again next week. Ahh, so glad we could meet them. I never regret that I spent my weekend there and went to a strange place because they made me happy.

At some point every pet owner will have behavior problems! Whether their dog barks too much, drags them down the street, fights with other dogs, causes damage or is overly aggressive, or their cat stops using the litter box, tears up their furniture or attacks their new cat, you know something is going to happen! That's why dogs get thrown out, banished to the yard - and why so many shelters are so crowded. And ALL children will encounter dogs some time, whether or not their family has one.

Jewish Baseball – From the DJN Davidson Digital Archive
It's summer now and the baseball season is well under way. The roster of our beloved home team, the Detroit Tigers, is much different from last year. Jewish second baseman Ian Kinsler was traded over the winter and, soon after last year's season concluded, the Tigers' Jewish manager, Brad Ausmus, was fired. This is a…Read More

The ID database slavery plot and Labour lies
In his article, Burnham identifies the 'real problems' as:
"How do we help people secure their identity in the modern world? How do we protect ourselves from fraud and criminal activity that relies on false identities? How do we respond to international requirements for more secure travel documents?"
Before we go into each of his points, it is worth remembering that this echoes the way New Labour treat data generally, which is as if it were a 'problem' that needs 'solving'. For New Labour, data needs managing, 'regulating' and opening up to government scrutiny and sharing and compiling and tying into a biometrically backed up serial number, otherwise the world will fall to pieces.
They treat data from an angle that somehow the status quo is never enough, and if only government could just do this, upload that, store this, share that then society will be just that bit better for you and doing so actually isn't that big a deal at all.
But that is a falsehood. The reality is they have got themselves embroiled in a policy that is duplicitous, dangerous, distinctly un-British and spiralling out of control on all fronts.
This is not a policy 'for the people', it is a policy for the NL/corporatist government alone, who seek to reshape via the most megalomaniacal system, what liberty and privacy mean in the UK.
"The Modern World"
Let's start with the 'Modern World' that Burnham talks about. Their ID database policy, and New Labour's wider ideology for abolishing privacy in the United Kingdom are like picking at a scab; it just keeps getting worse and worse and you wish you hadn't.
Inevitably, it is always the fault of the modern world, the catch-all soundbyte deployed to condone every kind of intrusive technology and practice like CCTV, RFID, ID Cards, implanted microchips, DRM, face scanning, 'mind' scanning, medical record uploading and sharing, pre-emptive health screening, data retention of internet surfing etc.
Yet what is never explained or explored is why this 'modern world' always means giving up yet more of your personal data to government and multination corporations. Where, exactly is the modernity in that? The answer is of course, nowhere.
There is absolutely nothing in the real modern world that requires you to be biometrically branded like a cattle on a government database just for being a person.
There is absolutely nothing in the real modern world that requires an ID card you always carry to be tied into one government database that records your life, and it doesn't matter how much New Labour ministers yell 'the modern world', it just ain't so.
Indeed the modern world would be infinitely better off without a single-point-of-failure database that is verified through a piece of worthless plastic you will ever be coerced to carry around with you like a ball and chain, oh...and protect from damage, thievery, misuse etc.
The modern world is blamed, misleadingly, for every type of intrusion under the sun. In reality it is because the modern world enables things like an ID scheme, not because the modern world needs things like an ID scheme, and for what New Labour are trying to do, we are lightyears out of the orbit of the 'modern world' argument, into one, exclusively, of political choices.
As for securing your identity ?
First off, they are not actually proposing to secure your identity (which is in itself a dodgy thing that governments shouldn't be trying to do anyway), they are trying to establish a new kind of shared-government asset; a mass-surveillance database and a new 'thing' for that, which will be called an 'identity' for everyone.
Their plan is to biometrically glue you into a serial number under which all events in your life are recorded, the data from which can then be shared on a whim with whatever government deptartment wants it. Anyone with access to the database will have access to that 'identity'. Additionally if your card is stolen or damaged you won't have access to the identity the government have bestowed upon you. Furthermore, keeping so much and everyone on one single database is about the least secure thing you could ever do, and pretty much every tech company including ones that could financially benefit from this virtual prision you will be paying for, are screaming at the government don't do it.
Read the bill. See if you think it is about 'securing' your identity. The bill is about creating a new database and a set of arbitrary penalties for not contributing to it. Your identity is about as insecure as it could possibly be with this scheme. It was never about empowering you with another means of proving who you are, which by the way is not an id card, or serial number, or blob of data.
"Fraud and criminal activity that relies on false identities"
What to do about over-population?
Some people feel it is a potential global problem and there just won't be enough food and resources to sustain everyone. But actually accepting that as a massive problem and then dealing with it in a reasonable time frame, some have actually suggested organized genocides through famine, war or disease and long term sterilization.
In terms of intensity, this is much like the ID scheme is to fraud and criminal activity, it is a new extreme that goes way way too far, smashes any moral compass, and punishes everyone, except unlike the mass de-population plot it won't actually work at all.
There will be always be criminals and there will always be fraud, there will be in a post-ID scheme world too, actually way more. However, we simply don't rewrite and re-wire society to try to deal with those kinds of issues.
To put it another way, perhaps a better analogy, it is like the government having a permanent record of all your sexual partners as their solution to rape. Additionally, to have sex at all you will have to get permission from the government each time who will make a note of it.
"How do we respond to international requirements for more secure travel documents?" (Global ID)
New Labour, taking advantage of a post 9/11 mania, have come up with their 'Final Solution' to privacy in the ID Scheme, where, because privacy is basically invisible until it goes wrong, it kind of doesn't exist at all. It is an outdated concept along with precaution and seperation and due process, and you won't notice it has gone because you are more interested in whatever the government tells you to be interested in like schools and hospitals etc.
The EU and the US, and the 'modern world' are blamed for the ID scheme 'necessity', but in reality, what New Labour have done is massively exploit a tiny biometric passport wish (a photo on a chip), into a mass, human-tagging, surveillence and data-slavery brave-new-world that displays the same (or far worse) level of industrialized contempt and outright danger for the population as witnessed in Nazi Germany. Any government trying to seriously propose this shouldn't be a government to put it mildly, but then would you really expect less from the overlords that thought the pre-arranged Iraq War was a good idea, or think torture is pretty cool ?
Burnham whimpered, "Opinion polls still show public support for ID cards"
Suuuuuuuuure they do. Oh you mean those 'other' polls. Don't forget the 90-days, death penalty etc. Thing is, MPs are supposed to protect people from silly crap as well. Actually I wonder what the numbers would be if you called it what it really is, 'The UK surveillance and data-slavery database'
"And I doubt I am the only Guardian reader who has always supported a British ID card in line with our European counterparts. This is an important issue and I suspect you may have a few more readers who would like to hear a little more of the other side of the story."
But there is no other side to the story, the ID database plot has been dressed up in 'ID cards' as a kind of nudge-nudge wink-wink; this will sort those illegal immigrants, terrorists and criminals out, yet is actually designed to do nothing of the sort. It has been fraudulently mis-sold as, ironically, a kind of nationalist 'ticket' that will cure several ills, but in reality it is a social-data gathering experiment turned acromegaly, that provides New Labour with a Brave New World to administer, and gives you absolutely nothing in return, save this nouveau-slavery masquerading as tough on terror/crime bullshit.
Even if, for some misled warped reason, you were in favour of ID cards, this plan isn't actually it.
So the answer is no Burnham. This crap needed to die a death ages ago. End this scheme now or it will be killed for you.

Cute Card Thursday & Create 4 Fun
I made the butterflies out of vellum with my Cuttlebug using Spellbinders Shapeabilities Nested Butterflies and the Cuttlebug Dots embossing folder, then just layered them. Something different. Oh, and of course, there are some pearls and crystal flower beads on the bow, just for fun.
And it just so happens to coincide with The Pink Elephant's challenge this week - Polka dots, a bow and Pink!
The sketch is from Create 4 Fun's current challenge .

For the majority of BlackBerry 10 users you will more than likely think that this post is stating the obvious so forgive us on this occasion. However, for new users to Team BlackBerry, knowing how to take a screenshot is a big deal, as it's a feature most of us use at some point or another.
If you dive into BlackBerry World you'll find a selection of screen capture applications, but don't waste your hard earned cash there as the ability to perform a screen shot is baked into BlackBerry 10 and has been since day one.
And it couldn't be easier. All you need to do is follow these in depth instructions:
- Press the up and down volume keys at the same time
Okay, the in depth bit was my sense of humor, but as you can see it's a piece of cake to do. As you press the two hardware buttons (and this applies to all BlackBerry 10 devices) you will see a box pop up on your display telling you that the screen capture has been performed - a nice touch, instead of just a clicking sound like on some other operating systems.
When you need to access your screenshots just jump into your photo gallery and there they'll be - simple.
This one certainly isn't rocket science, but for you BlackBerry 10 newbies it's a must have. Once again, an example of BlackBerry 10 making life simple for its users. We like that.

At first glance they look like a gang of renegade bikers with patches and rocker bars adorning their bikes and leather vests as they gather in a Coronado grocery store parking lot. There are no two individuals alike, each bike, vest, and the various other allegoric symbols speak of very diverse gathering of souls with a unifying bond and with a single solemn objective.
Most of them are Vietnam vets, but their are also simply patriots both male and female. The leader calls the group to attention and they gather around him. He explains the mission to newcomers in the group, and in this case it is to escort a young Seal Team member's coffin to Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego.
He hands out dog tags to each member. Each time they assemble, new members get their "first mission" tags, but most are getting another one of many. Instructions on how to process in unison along the highways are then given followed by precise directions.
Frenchie, a biker/pastor/patriot, is called upon to give the blessing. It is simple but powerful — the words delivered in such reverence — big men are moved almost to tears.
A single but most powerful word is the basis for such dedication. It is never spoken in casual tones by these Patriots because it is most cherished, revered, and never ever used lightly.
Every action by the Guard speaks of "RESPECT" for the memory of the fallen and their grieving loved ones.
The waves of emotion ripple through the crowds gathered along the roadside to watch this awesome, yet bittersweet convoy. The first into view are the rippling stars and stripes affixed to the back of the bikes followed by the sound of powerful Harley Davidson motorcycles like a division of Sherman tanks as they thunder by.
Even more moving is to watch the dark green military buses carrying the fallen soldier and his family as they pass next. Even after they have passed, some men are still saluting as they disappear across the Coronado Bay Bridge.
The Patriot Guard Riders (PGR) is a motorcycle club whose members attend the funerals of U.S. Armed Forces members, firefighters, and police at the invitation of the deceased's family. Patriot Guard Riders' representatives state that they are not a chartered motorcycle club, but a group of patriotic individuals with an unwavering respect for those who risk their lives for America's freedom and security.
The group was formed in 2005 to shelter and protect the deceased's family from protesters such as the Westboro Baptist Church, who claim that the deaths of American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan are divine retribution for American tolerance of homosexuality. PGR members position themselves to physically shield the mourners from the presence of the Westboro protesters by blocking the protesters from view with their motorcade or by having members hold American flags. The group also drowns out the protesters' chants by singing patriotic songs or by revving their motorcycle engines.
Although initially founded by motorcyclists, the organization is open to anyone regardless of political affiliation, veteran status, or whether they ride or not. The only prerequisite is "a deep respect for those who serve our country: military, firefighters, or law enforcement". The Patriot Guard was established in Mulvane, Kansas at the American Legion Post 136 in 2005.
The group's mission quickly expanded to include the funerals of law enforcement officers, fire department personnel, all first responders, and any active duty member or veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces from all previous wars and conflicts, and it is now largely focused on recognizing and honoring the sacrifices of fallen service members as well as their families and loved ones. As of March 2011, PGR reported over 220,000 members. In addition to their attendance at funerals, the group also greets troops returning from overseas at welcome home celebrations, deployment ceremonies, and perform volunteer work for veteran's organizations such as Veterans Homes. The group also assists families in financial difficulties with travel and housing arrangements. They also visit military hospitals to encourage and honor wounded service members of the United States Armed Forces.

I'm awful at updating.. sorry. (If anyone actually reads this)
I am 25 weeks 3 days now.
I had an OB appointment on Monday. I've gained 31 lbs this pregnancy. They gave me the paper work to go get my GTT (Glucose Tolerance Test) done. I also signed the paperwork for my tubal ligation procedure to be done when the twins are delivered. He wants to see me back on July 1st ( 2 weeks) for my next appointment so hopefully I can remember to go do my glucose test before then.
Then today I had my perinatologist appointment. They do a growth scan every 3 weeks and this was the week. The girls look great. Kaeda is 1 lb 6 oz (she gained 11 oz in 3 weeks) and is in the 44th percentile for her gestational age. Ember is 1 lb 11 oz (she gained 13 oz in 3 weeks) and is in the 61st percentile for her gestational age. There is a 17% discordance between the two of them which is 6% less than it was at the last scan! So Kaeda is catching up a little bit, hopefully she continues to catch up. Everything else (fluid levels, doppler levels) looked great. They want to continue to see me once a week so I go back next Friday for fluid, doppler, and cervix check and of course will have another growth scan the first week in July.

Family Christmas Craft & Film Afternoon
Come and join us here at Raans Road on Saturday 3rd December from 1.30 to 4.30pm for a fun afternoon for parents, carers and children together to create Christmas crafts and watch a film. The film and all craft activities – angels, snow globes and elves – are free of charge but a tuck shop will be available for which pennies are required!
We will be showing Elf (PG), the Christmas family comedy. Will Ferrell stars as Buddy, a human being who has spent his whole life believing himself to be an elf. Brought up by Santa (Edward Asner) and his elves at the North Pole, Buddy has spent the last 30 years happily working in Santa's toy workshop. But when his ungainly size starts to become a liability in the elf-sized working environment, Santa suggests that Buddy head to New York City to find his biological father (James Caan). Needless to say, the unlikely spectacle of a 6'5′ man dressed from head to foot in bright green stands out a mile on the streets of the Big Apple, and the good-natured Buddy finds himself in all sorts of scrapes as he gets used to his new family and surroundings – and they get used to him.

Trego, Overton twins hold up Notts
Nottinghamshire 461 and 66 for 3 require a further 44 runs to beat Somerset 168 and 402 (Trego 107*, Jones 77, Overton 50)
When bad light brought a premature end to the day's play at Trent Bridge, Nottinghamshire were not far from a winning line they must have expected to cross it some hours earlier. Once again, it was Samit Patel's belligerence that had changed the complexion of the game.
Between them the Overton boys had helped to turn what looked at the start of play like a foregone conclusion into an intriguing enigma. Jamie made 50 as last man in, contributing to Somerset's last wicket stand of 73, then his twin Craig ripped out Steven Mullaney and James Taylor for a duck each in the first over of the innings as Nottinghamshire began to chase a target of 110. Yet again, a day of county cricket had thrillingly confounded expectations. Craig later took Samit Patel after a quick fire 41 to finish on 3 for 23.
Jamie Overton is a pretty handy No. 11. His previous first-class score was 56 against Warwickshire, though since that knock he has played two games for Devon and one for Somerset 2nds as has struggled with the accuracy of his bowling.
Patel looked like a man who would prefer not to come back to Trent Bridge tomorrow, smacking eight boundaries in a stay of just 30 balls. Earlier in the day he passed 200 first-class wickets, and this has been a great match for him.
Somerset started the day needing 187 to make Nottinghamshire bat again with seven wickets in hand. That they ended up setting them a target that wasn't a given was down to a resilient and dogged batting effort, especially at the back end of the innings. Peter Trego made 107 not out, and accompanied by George Dockrell and Jamie Overton added a combined total of 149 for the last two wickets.
It could be argued that Somerset have not had the climatic rub of the green in this match. On Sunday morning every captain around the country was winning the toss choosing to bat, and Marcus Trescothick was one of them. But although the weather was pleasant it was also muggy, and Nottinghamshire's bowlers took advantage. Had it not been for Trescothick's own 87, his side would have been in even more trouble than they were at the start of day three.
It was an encouraging early morning for bowlers, warm but with plenty of cloud in the sky. There is a theory, which has never been adequately explained, that the construction of the New Stand alongside the Bridgeford Road has turned Trent Bridge into a happy hunting ground for swing bowlers. Peter Siddle, Andre Adams, and Harry Gurney would have been licking their lips.
As it turned out it was an attritional morning. Somerset added 82 while losing two wickets. Exactly an hour into the day James Hildreth mis-timed a pull to midwicket off Ajmal Shahzad to present Andre Adams a simple catch; then Chris Jones, Somerset's mainstay in the early stages of the innings, decided to leave alone an inducker from Harry Gurney and lost his off stump.
The afternoon session was dominated by Peter Trego and his late order companions. Half of his 107 runs came from boundaries and he was strong on both sides of the wicket. His century was the eleventh of his first-class career. Craig Kieswetter contributed 54 before falling to two outstanding catches in the outfield by Alex Hales.
Somerset deserve credit for making Nottinghamshire work today, but they will need something remarkable to avoid losing on Wednesday morning.
