An upcoming Los Altos Community Coalition-sponsored panel on community benefit programs will feature officials from Redwood City discussing how they collaborate with large developers to ensure that new buildings become part of the fabric of the city.
The panel, scheduled for 8:30 a.m. on March 17 at the Los Altos Library, is part of a series that invites local residents and guests to share how they confront the challenges facing their cities.
Breaking the deadlock
For Shali Sirkay, LACC co-chairwoman, the purpose is fairly straightforward. Many of the issues Los Altos faces – building heights, school sites and parking – have been problems for a long time. LACC members hope to break the deadlock by bringing new voices to the table.
"What we're trying to do is have meetings around specific groups, and have speakers that can speak to these issues," she said.
LACC hosted a previous discussion on operating small businesses in downtown Los Altos. A future panel will focus on schools and health. These are new issues for Sirkay, even though her family moved to Los Altos a decade ago.
"We have lived here since 2007, and as a parent in this community, we were not looped in," she said. "I want to involve more constituents who have not maybe been involved before."
Sirkay also serves as executive vice president of the Los Altos Mountain View PTA Council and leans on her professional skills to build a community around issues, rather than one divided by them. With a background in public health, she reviews best practices to apply them to a diverse crowd.
"I love getting a diverse array of people at the same table talking," she said. "I haven't seen a lot of that happening."
Sirkay emphasized that LACC meetings are not about employing politics, but rather getting people on the same page.
"The neat thing about the coalition is that it is nonpartisan and neutral. All opinions are respected," she said. "We don't try to push any vision on anyone – our purpose is to educate people."
An offline conversation
Unlike online forums such as Facebook or Nextdoor, LACC is designed to burst through the filter bubble.
"If your only source of information is what you read online, you may have a very different point of view than what actually exists," Sirkay said.
Tamara Fagin, the outgoing co-chairwoman of LACC (David Rock holds the other co-chair seat), pointed to different age and geographic segments of town that they are trying to bring together.
"We're trying to do a panel of teens, a panel of seniors and a panel of people who live in south Los Altos to understand how downtown is important for everybody," Fagin said.
Rock called LACC a "big tent."
"LACC has consciously kept its meetings open to organizations in the community," he said.
Sirkay agreed, adding that the point is not to define segments of Los Altos demographics as different, but to see where they overlap.
"There are issues that are particular to (different groups), but I don't want just parents coming to the school-age session," she said. "It is important that we have all these people learning what is important to another group."
Rock said Sirkay's experience enables her to further this educational goal by drawing people who aren't usually involved in local politics into the dialogue.
"She is a big believer in getting the young families in town much more involved with the issues that affect all residents, including vibrancy in the downtown," he said. "Shali is also very committed to doing what's in the best interests of the city."
The end goal is to squelch the binary debates and open a larger conversation.
"I love the diversity of opinions that we have here," Sirkay said. "That is what will make for a very rich and productive discussion. But I don't want people to see this issue as black and white. It's not 'yes on this and no on that.'"

Whoop whoop Whoop….I believe today we will see some "MAGIC" at the Masters today. There are probable 15 people with real possibilities of winning. Once they arrive at number 10…hold on for the ride!! We will see spectacular shots, shots that we a foot from being a spectacular shot. We will see fragile shaky nerves as well as nerves of steel. We might see a 20 year old win…or a 50 year old. All I know is with the people in contention…we are going to see some shot making!!! The golfers still in it with only 3 or 4 holes left are going to show us something special…they will be in a position to conjure up "MAGIC". For those of you who play golf and who love golf…you know what I'm talking about. Even those of you who just love sports and a good battle…you know what I'm taking about. I, like a great Super Bowl, World Series, Wimbledon, Olympics …and any other completion where the best bring their best. Trust me, The Masters has every element as in it as other sports…probably more.
Bring it on! Men's golf is on the rise and rising….especially if Speith or Fowler put that green jacket on. Can't wait to see what happens…..
Also, a big shout out to Jonathan Randolph, right here from Brandon, Ms. Jonathan, is in Mexico tied for 5th (1 stroke out) in a web.com event. He is also 15th on the money list on the Web tour. The top 25 at the end of the year get a PGA card…if I'm not mistaken? Let's go Jonathan….make your own "magic" today!

|Image: A large-format drawing on paper of "Anthropologist Edward H. Man with two Nicobar Islanders", made by Alfred Robinson for lectures by E.B. Tylor in the Pitt Rivers Museum, c.1885-1890 (Copyright Pitt Rivers Museum; Accession Number 1944.1.34)
Full details are below. The lecture is in the Kelvin Hall Lecture Cinema, and the event is from 5pm to 7pm. You can sign up for the event, which is free on the eventbrite page here.
Here's the lecture outline from SGSAH:
On the Treatment of Dead Enemies
Dan Hicks, Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford
What do the objects in ethnographic museums tell us about anthropological knowledge? The discipline of Anthropology gradually from the 1920s, turned its back on practices of collecting and exhibition in favour of the production of field notes and monographs. From the 1970s, in the wake of the civil rights movement and the emergence of post-colonial studies, ethnographic museums were the most visible public sites in which the loss of authority of an anthropological voice was made clear.
Today, ethnographic museums across Europe are experiencing a renaissance in public interest, but generally remain disconnected from current anthropological thinking and knowledge, perceived as museums of museums, mere relics of empire.
Beginning with the famous case in the Court of the Pitt Rivers Museum, titled "On the Treatment of Dead Enemies", this talk takes stock not just of what Anthropology left behind in the process of leaving the museum and material culture behind, but what it carried with it in terms of practices and attitudes in fieldwork and knowledge.
Considering the changing place of anthropological material culture studies in interdisciplinary studies of materiality, the paper will reassess the significance of the collections of ethnographic museums today in the context firstly of calls for the decolonization of the academy, and secondly of the challenges and importance of understanding other ways of living and of thinking for European society today.
Dan Hicks FSA, MCIfA is Associate Professor and Curator, Pitt Rivers Museum and School of Archaeology, University of Oxford and a Fellow of St Cross College, Oxford. Dan teaches Archaeology, Anthropology and Art History at Oxford, and has published widely on Museums, Heritage, Material Culture, and the Archaeology of the Modern and Contemporary World. His books include The Oxford Handbook of Material Culture Studies (2010, edited with Mary Beaudry) and World Archaeology at the Pitt Rivers Museum (2013, edited with Alice Stevenson). Dan is the University of Oxford's Junior Proctor Elect for 2017-18. Dan's current research activities include a programme of research into the archaeological activities of General Pitt-Rivers (funded by Arts Council England and ESRC), and a cross-disciplinary study of the temporary architecture of the refugee crisis in Europe (funded by a £300,000 grant from AHRC and ESRC, in partnership with the Refugee Studies Centre, from November 2016).

I believe it follows that if we have enough businesses and industries which are developed, then the market for our labor force will automatically determine what is right for our workers. Rather than the current inflationary policy of our government's labor laws.
Imagine: Due to surging oil prices minimum wages were increased. However, it should be noted that surging oil prices may be temporary only and may be due to speculation, which nevertheless leads to an abnormally high inflation for a certain period.
If the minimum wages were raised for that period, it would mean higher costs for our producers/manufacturers, retailers or our businesses in general, which would then mean higher costs of basic necessities for our national consumers and that even if oil prices or food prices were to significantly go down, it cannot be denied that labor costs would continue to stay at a higher rate based on higher prices.
Although, this would entail more spending power for our consumers, this would in fact prevent the overall purchasing power of our peso from increasing as the prices of basic necessities are barred from further decreasing due to the limit set by our minimum wage.
Now, it is equally troublesome to have fluctuating minimum wages which some companies would use to their own advantage, the better solution would be to provide for new minimum wages but to prevent the diminution of the old minimum wages which were already set in place.
This is not the only observation I have had with this law, however, there are still some other issues which I hope somebody else could point out to me = )
What do you guys think?

a three-man Irish band.
is markedly different from the other artists.
Their lyrics play on a range of emotions, from plaintive and positively melancholic,
to hopeful and optimistic.
The singer's wonderful voice tugged at my heartstrings.
Hope to see / hear them again live.
Hope to see / hear them again live.

The instructor and one of the students died. The other two students are likely to recover. The students of the instructor who died related the instructor's really bad argument with a student about capital punishment and a paper that was submitted.

Home Decor Meets Greeting Cards
So, today was an eventful day. On my walk this morning I was followed by the sweet pup.
I wanted to keep him. I could not. Hopefully he will be adopted soon.
Now, on to the reason I opened a new blog post.
A few weeks ago I got the idea that home decor trends should extend to the crafting world.
My favorite things in home decor are Gallery Walls. So I created 2 cards with that in mind.
Card one consist of a hanging wall planter.
I filled it with tiny flowers and added some
extra framed art.
The second consist of a wooden wall art.
Only its a box that sits off the wall a little.
These cards were so fun to make. Remember you can find
inspiration from all around. I only used a few products.
I can't be happier with the results.

Burke McHugh talks to NextGen business leaders in Billings on Tuesday. McHugh was on video conference call from Denver.
A new brewery, movie theater and bowling alley would be likely pieces of the proposed $120 million One Big Sky Centerin downtown Billings, but the complex project faces big hurdles, developers said Tuesday in a video conference in Billings.
Skip Ahern and Burke McHugh of MontDevCo LLC told about 60 young professionals they are working on commitments for tenants to fill retail and office space and a brand for a proposed hotel and convention center.
They said they plan to appear before the Billings City Council on Monday to discuss the project financing, which is a mix of private equity, up to $30 million in public tax-increment financing, bank loans and other sources.
"This would be a large, complex project if it were in New York, Los Angeles or Denver. … To pull this off in Billings will take a lot of hard work, effort and, frankly, some good luck," Ahern said in the conference call from Denver, where he lives.

Metrolink Introduction > Didsbury Line: updated 28 June 2017
See City Centre for a description of Victoria, Piccadilly, Deansgate–Castlefield and the lines between them; also City South from Deansgate–Castlefield to Cornbrook, Trafford Bar and Chorlton.
From St. Werburgh's Road to East Didsbury the line runs for 4.5 kilometres along the former Midland railway track bed. It passes under Mauldeth Road West and alongside the south–western edge of Hough End Playing Fields.
Withington stop is on the west side of Princess Road. There is a ramp and steps from the pavement down to the inbound platform. Steps and a lift connect the outbound platform to pavement level. Ramps from both platforms to a foot track level crossing are provided at the Chorlton end of the stop. Many bus routes use Princess Road, allowing easy interchange.
Burton Road stop is on the west side of the road, about 90 metres north of the eastern end of Cavendish Road. It has a ramp and steps to the inbound platform; also a lift and steps to the outbound platform. Ramps from both platforms to a foot track level crossing are provided at the Chorlton end of the stop.
West Didsbury stop is immediately after the line crosses under the Palatine Road/Lapwing Lane junction, it has two single face platforms. There is a ramp and steps from the pavement down to the inbound platform. Steps and a lift connect the outbound platform to pavement level. Two short ramps and a track crossing at the southern end of the stop connect inbound and outbound platforms. As well as serving the local residential area it allows passengers to interchange between buses and trams.
The line crosses under; Elm Road a short distance west of its junction with Lapwing Lane; Parkfield Road South about 75 metres west of Wilmslow Road; Wilmslow Road near the junction with Moorland Road. It then passes through a twin covered way and concrete walled cutting — built as part of the Didsbury Station development — and crosses under School Lane, just to the east of the junction with William Street.
Didsbury Village stop is on the south side of School lane. An access point on School Lane, opposite Beaver Road, has a ramped pathway down to the centre of the outbound platform. From the south–eastern end of this platform a short ramp connects to a pedestrian track crossing to Olive Shapley Avenue also to the inbound platform by a short ramp. Another short ramp connects the Manchester end of the inbound platform to Olive Shapley Avenue.
The Trans–Pennine Trail and Didsbury Stockport Cycle Path ran from School Lane to Parrs Wood Lane along the route, they were temporarily diverted for Metrolink construction. A short section has been permanently diverted along Olive Shapley Avenue.
When powers were sought for the East Didsbury extension, it was only possible to plan for a single Metrolink track between School Lane and East Didsbury alongside the Trans–Pennine Trail and Didsbury Stockport Cycle Path. Additional land became available and in January 2004 GMPTE were granted the relevant permission for a double track along this section of the route.
Sandhurst Road bridge was restricted to pedestrian and cycle use at surface level. The old bridge and its northern abutment were demolished. With the abutment rebuilt further to the north, a new 3 metres wide footbridge has been installed. Now Metrolink and the Trans–Pennine Trail have been constructed, with both passing under this new bridge.
After crossing under Parrs Wood Road; the line passes the southern edge of The Barlow RC High School playing field before going under the railway line. It then passes behind the Tesco supermarket. Facing and trailing crossovers have been provided just before the line crosses under Kingsway.
East Didsbury is an island platform stop in the cutting between Kingsway and Parrs Wood Lane. Short ramps, at both ends of the island platform, connect to track level. At the western end of the stop steps and a lift connect the Kingsway bridge eastern pavement level to track crossings, allowing access to the platform and Trains–Pennine Trail. There is cycle parking here at track level. A path from this space parallels Kingsway to its junction with Parrs Wood Lane. At the eastern end of the stop a path connects with the Trains–Pennine Trail and the pavement at the corner of Burnage Lane and Parrs Wood Lane.
This stop serves a large number of houses in the East Didsbury and Heaton Mersey areas, as well as shopping and leisure facilities at Parrs Wood. There is a 300–space park and ride facility which is free to use for Metrolink passengers.

For the most part, to me, studs give handbags an edgy look and feel. However, when I saw this Diane von Furstenberg Belle Studded Clutch I saw an entire different kind of inspiration. While there might be a bit of an edgy feel, that isn't the underlying theme of the bag. In fact, the gentle copper metallic leather brings a soft, feminine touch to an otherwise rocker-chic clutch.
Certainly, being a clutch, you don't have a lot of leather to work with. Yet, every time I see this bag, the copper metallic leather shines past the gunmetal hardware and catches my eye. If you are a shoulder strap clutch kind of gal, then you'll be happy to know that this is an option with this bag. The gathered leather is smooshy, touchable and fabulous. One more thing I can't get passed is how much fun I would have carrying this clutch to so many different events. Whether it is with a somewhat casual outfit or more of a dressed up outfit, this clutch would be perfect. I want it! Buy through Bergdorf Goodman for $425.

Have you been affected by the loss of a tree (or a whole f..ing planet)
Maybe a local copse? Called the Cops?
Caps in hand they said, the Land
Is not our Jurisdiction.
If you wish to help our forest friends
Here is my suggestion........................
Dear Vanqished Bank
Regarding your letter, undated (recieved 25th May 2011) Ref:XOOOOOOOX
As you will be aware our planet and its resources are under terrific strain. Your writing to me has used up paper,made usually of wood pulp, which of course necessitated the felling of a tree and so the degradation of our environment. Ultimately this threatens our chances of survival as a race and lowers the quality of life for us if we do survive.
You will appreciate that for me to process and give my attention to your paperwork (the letter you sent)requires an effort of work on my part. You should also be aware of the cost incurred by me for recycling services provided by my local council.
For these reasons I am writing to you to inform you that any future, unrequested, unwanted documents received by me, whether in the form of letters or advertisements, sent by post or in the form of a "flyer", in fact anything that comes through my letter box from Vanquished Bank or its agents, will be processed, considered and disposed of at a charge of £250 per item. Likewise, telephone communications from Vanquished Bank or its agents will be charged at a rate of £250 per call regardless of the brevity of them.
This letter is not meant in jest. I will invoice you and pursue payment. You may consider this a plain English contract. Further communication from you will be taken as acceptance of the terms and charges.
Thank you for your attention.
They are AS DUMB AS F**K.
Dear Mr.... Refernce your complaint....(thats a charge!)
Dear Vanquished......It wasn't a complaint.....
Dear Mr......we have a statutory obligation to register all criticism as a complaint....(Charge!)
Dear Vanquished....Fascinating, heres another invoice as per my NOTICE
Dear Mr....Please stop teasing us, we can't read, we dont understand contracts.....(charged)
Dear Vanquished...You bunch of shits. Leave the leaves ALONE!
Dear Vanquished....My invoices are overdue
Dear Mr.......Thats not a proper contract, you need signatures from 2 parties....(charged)
Dear Vanquished....You will notice where as the boot was on your foot...its now on my foot....I am kicking you butt...because you picked on my friends....

A General Overview Of Granite Countertops
The great looks and shiny characteristics of granite have made to have a special place in our lives. Granite is also known for its long lasting attributes. The ancient Egyptians found granite and made use of it in making of pyramids. Today granite countertops are the most sought after than other kinds of countertops. You may ask why granite is popular with many people, but as stated granite offers the beauty and is durable. In this article we'll try to elucidate the reasons as to why granite countertops are the best and why many homeowners go for them.
First off, granite is a material that is naturally found on the earth surface, but unique to some places. The grainy appearance of the granite is brought about by the interlocking structure of granite. The ability to last long has been attributed to the interlocking crystal structure of the granite. Granite countertops are the best since they cannot be destroyed easily.
To maintain granite countertops you don't require parting with any cash, its simple. The kitchen knife cannot dent the granite countertop unless you have intended to do so. The moment you tear or wear the countertop with your knife, you'd already have destroyed your knife. For long-lasting countertops look for granite countertops.
It is possible to get granite countertops that fit well with your kitchen and bathroom designs. The popularity of granite countertops has made many countertop manufacturers very innovative. It is possible to get custom granite countertops. It is safer to say granite countertops are timeless. Anybody can manage to buy granite countertops. Select the best granite countertop you like today.
The traditional colors that you could find for granite countertops include white, gray, black pink, orange, and colorless. Seek for the best firm that does the countertops installation to help you select the best shade.
There are five crystals that make granite, they includes quartz, mica, feldspar, hornblende, and biotite. Quartz is the favorite crystal, it produces the best qualities of the granite countertops. The granite countertops can withstand heat, tear and wear courtesy of quartz crystals. The reflections of the colors of the crystals around quartz give it color.
Granite derives its polish nature from the mica crystals. Some of the shades that mica crystals provide to the granite includes silver, black, violet, and pink. Feldspar is the crystal that gives granite most of the colors like yellow, orange, pink, and blue among others. Among the most common crystals of the granite is the hornblende and biotite.

Foreign Affairs Minister, Geoffrey Onyeama, says conscious efforts of President Muhammadu Buhari to reach out to neighbouring countries have helped in the fight against Boko Haram insurgency in the country.
Onyeama said this on Tuesday in Abuja at a news conference on his performance in the ministry in the last three and half years.
The minister said that Buhari upon assumption of office, forged alliances with neighbouring countries of Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Benin Republic to battle insurgency.
He said that the Boko Haram's activities were on a high scale at the inception of the Buhari administration, particularly in the north-eastern part of the country which the president promised to tackle headlong.
He said: "With regards to security, there were conscious outreaches to all the countries of the world that we felt were relevant to our security and our fight against terrorism.
"These are our immediate neighbours of Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Benin Republic. And with them, we forged a military alliance, the Multinational Joint Task Force."
Onyeama said that the first trips made by the President on assumption of office were to Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Benin Republic.
He said that this was to ensure that the countries were all on one page to fight terrorism and assured the security and territorial integrity of the country.
He said the diplomatic outreach had been sustained till the moment, noting that the sustenance of the diplomatic outreach had also been very successful.
He said: "So, we have had absolutely no dissonance amongst these countries but all working to fight a common enemy.
"On terrorist threat in the Sahel and other parts of Africa, the Federal Government has to embark on greater engagement across West Africa on security matters."
According to him, a group called the G5 Sahel was established by some West African countries to address terrorists challenges in the Sahel region.
He said: "We had to engage with them and set up also with France and the US and the UK, a joint intelligence fusion unit headquartered in Abuja to share intelligence amongst the countries in the fight against terrorism.
"So, we were very successful in that and also, with other African countries on the framework of the African Union and beyond – the US the UK, France and all our partners.
"We were able through diplomatic outreach to bring them in and work with us through supply of weapons and other equipment, training and developing strategies."
He said that countries like Jordan also supported Nigeria in the fight against insurgency.
He said: "So, on the security front, in short, we were able to leverage on a very clear and well-articulated foreign policy direction to mobilise global support in the fight against terrorism.
"These efforts also help in making the rest of the world to see the issue of Boko Haram as challenge to unite around. So, Mr President succeeded extremely well with regards to that."

Los Angeles Crime Map
The Los Angeles Times has an excellent CRIME MAP online that buyers can use to compare the safety of various Los Angeles neigbhorhoods: http://maps.latimes.com/crime/
WARNING: You might be unsettled the first time you look at a crime map because there are a lot of crimes!
Some general things you should know about crime:
-Poor neighborhoods have higher crime rates
-Rich neighborhoods have lower crime rates
-Poor neighborhoods have higher rates of violent crime
-Rich neighborhoods have higher rates of property crime
-Los Angeles is a big city- there is crime anywhere you go
-The suburbs are safer than the city
The LA Times Crime Map is color coded.
When looking at the crime map, pay special attention to violent crime (Red). This kind of crime is unacceptable. Examples of violent crime: Homicide, Rape, Assault, Robbery. Try to avoid neighborhoods with high violent crime rates, these neighborhoods aren't safe. The worst kind of violent crime is Homicide- if there are more than 1 or 2 homicides within 1 mile each year, I'd avoid that neighborhood. You can look up the story behind the homicide- if its gang related that is obviously worse than something like domestic violence.
Property crime (brown) is about 3-4 times more frequent than violent crime, and tends to occur more often in richer neighborhoods where residents are likely to own expensive possessions. Examples of property crime: Burglary, Theft, Grand Theft Auto, Theft from Vehicle. I am not as concerned with property crime as violent crime when considering a potential neighborhood. It's a nuisance, but you don't have to worry about your physical safety.
Beverly Hills has its own crime map. Santa Monica is not yet covered.

i guess you could say i was never really comfortable with my processed hair. i hated the smell of the relaxer and i wondered how something that was as thick as my hair could turn into something so thin after just minutes with a relaxer.
luckily, i came to my senses when i graduated from college and moved to california for a fresh start. and i really saw the light when i stopped hiding under braid and twist extensions a few years later. i loved my 'fro, but i had always admired locs and even considered loc extensions in the past. but i didn't know the first thing about maintaining or even starting them, since i didn't know anyone with natural hair (let alone locs!).
and then i discovered Nappturality.com. and after a few years of perusing the loc forum and various fotki albums, i decided to start my locs in january 2007. i had read so many posts saying that you just know when you're ready - and that was definitely the case with me. though i love locs of all shapes and sizes, i went with sisterlocks. i think that no matter what kind of hair/hairstyle you have, everyone experiences bad hair days. but i have to say that since i've had locs, mine have been few and far between. i've gotten nothing but positive feedback, but more importantly, i'm completely happy with my decision to loc.
The LHBE is simply a place where locked bloggers who have informative, photo filled journeys of their lock "process" can be found. Bloggers here have positive, but real stories of their journeys, some from day 1. It is meant to be a central location where many blog stories focusing on locks, be they Traditional, Freeform, Sisterlocks, Braidlocs, Palm Roll, Two-strand Twisted, etc. are easily located. Enjoy the journey stories. Do not copy photos without owner's permission.

Your maternal instincts have kicked in and you are planning to start a family. In looking forward you have thought of everything from due dates to midwives, from names to parenting magazines; but have you thought about your body's need to prepare for the best possible conception?
If you are anticipating falling pregnant, nutritional changes should be made in the months before conception. To help prepare, it is recommended that you take a pre-conception supplement with a combination of iodine and folic acid.
Now is the time to start taking iodine and folic acid because from the moment of conception a woman's nutritional needs dramatically increase. When a woman is deficient in iodine it may take up to 5 months to replenish the body and support a healthy pregnancy.
The role of folate in the body is to help regenerate the red blood cells. If a woman is deficient in folate she may be at an increased risk of giving birth to a child with a neural tube defect such as spina bifida.
International authority on iodine deficiency, Professor Creswell Eastman coordinated The National Australian Iodine Study 2006 which measured iodine levels in 8-10 year old children. The results showed that an alarming 70% of Australian children were deficient in iodine, which is vital for normal brain development, eyesight and hearing.
"Low iodine levels in the foetus can mean the brain does not get wired properly and can lead to subtle defects in hearing and vision," said Professor Eastman. "Iodine supplements are essential for pregnant women and I recommend that pregnant women take 250mcg per day" Eastman said.
From the moment of conception a woman's nutritional needs dramatically increase.
"Almost 100% of pregnant and breastfeeding women do not get their recommended daily intake of folic acid. This causes concern for women who want to give their baby a great start in life, especially when it comes to nutrition," says Blackmores Naturopath and Director of Education Pam Stone. "Women need iodine both while pregnant and breastfeeding, for a baby's normal mental development," says Stone.
Blackmores Conceive Well Gold is formulated with a combination of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids, including iodine and folic acid, specifically chosen to help prime the female reproductive system and prepare the body for conception.
Blackmores Pregnancy & Breast-Feeding Gold provides a combination of nutrients that are important in the healthy growth and development of your baby while you are pregnant and breast-feeding. It supports healthy development of your baby's brain, eyesight, hearing and bones.
For more information on the Blackmores products and as well as the latest information and advice on optimum health and nutrition for pregnancy, plus interactive tools and a support network, visit the Blackmores Pregnancy Companion website www.blackmores.com.au/pregnancy.
You can also contact the free Blackmores naturopathic health advisory service on 1800 803 760. The team of naturopaths can give you nutritional advice and let you know what medications, herbs and supplements to avoid. Pregnancy can be a difficult time for managing your health. Having to eliminate medications you turn to for the most basic health complaints from colds to constipation leaves many women suffering in silence. Blackmores keep you informed of natural and safe ways to manage symptoms and conditions that may be experienced while pregnant and breastfeeding.

Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas is damn near a perfect movie. So when I watched it recently for, oh, I'd say maybe the 50th time, I was surprised to discover a small continuity error I'd never noticed before in what might be the movie's most famous scene. Continue reading "MOVING VIOLATIONS: Goodfellas"
It's rare for a movie that isn't a musical to use a song in its entirety (outside the credits). In fact, it's hard to think of more than a few examples. But two of the best examples come from the same movie. Continue reading "SOUND BITES: Donnie Darko"
When it comes to PT Anderson movies, I can't help myself. As soon as a trailer is posted, I watch it. But the marketing for his movies in recent years has misled audiences, so that it takes more than one viewing to appreciate the movie for what it actually is.
A Quiet Place is a horror movie that does something a little different.

Gluteal implants do wonders on flat, round and oval buttocks, the implants come in a smooth or textured silicone membrane to avoid movement and fibrous formation which gives hardness and pain to buttocks. The patient decides on the shape depending on her pelvis morphology and buttock. These implants come in different sizes and thicknesses.
Implants only correct the upper part of buttocks. Surgery takes an hour and a half under general anaesthesia. The patient lies on the belly, a 5 centimeter incision is done in the inter gluteal fold where the prosthesis is put in, after having detached the superficial and medium muscles.
The patient will stay two nights at the clinic, lying on the belly, only position allowed as well as standing position, for the two first weeks one must not sit on the prosthesis.
Lipofilling is another alternative to increase buttock volume, an efficient technology, the Brazilian way, but there are two main problems:
Some patients do not have sufficient fat to inject
To get satisfying results surgery must be repeated 2 or 3 times.

I am One Lucky Cubs Fan
An early post I wrote recanted my first Cubs game at Wrigley Field this past September. I was lucky to have such an experience. The organization had set the bar pretty high, how could any game ever compare to this?
I recently gave into joining the Twitter community, after having 'bucked' the system for the past year or so. I began by following Cubs players, following Kerry Wood, Ian Stewart, David DeJesus, Paul Maholm and others. Paul tweeted he would host a trivia giveaway on 22 March 2012. The last question Paul asked was who had he [Paul] hit his only career home run off of and where. He also stated the first correct answer would win two tickets for the Cubs home opener. Within seconds I answered. This is the response I received:
I arrived to the game at the game early to pick-up my tickets. I fully expected for the seats to be in the upper section of the stadium, which would have been fine as they were free tickets, but the tickets had a surprise of their own:
We went into the stadium and found our seats, which were on section up from home plate; a great view:
As we're sitting, waiting for the opening day ceremonies to begin, I check my phone and notice I have a direct message from Paul. He said he was about to come onto the field and would look for me; I figured a friendly wave, head nod or something to that effect. A few minutes later, a gentlemen in a suit approaches us, ask if I am Josh and says Mr. Maholm would like to meet us. We are ushered to a sectioned area and Paul is already there waiting. We shake hands, exchange pleasantries; I wish him luck during the season, he thanks me for my service:
Unfortunately, I have only been to two games at Wrigley Field. However, both games have been experiences that I will never forget. The Cubs' players and organization have been great to this fan. I'm not sure how many other organizations are the same way, but for these experiences I am grateful!

PAINESVILLE, Ohio – The Lake Erie College baseball team was in action today as they split a double header with Saginaw Valley.
The Storm jumped out to an early lead in the bottom of the first as Austin Bovenzi (Fairport, N.Y. / McQuaid Jesuit) led off the inning with a double, and the next batter Lucas Raley (Hinckley, Ohio / Medina Highland) singled for the Storm. Bovenzi was driven in by Zak Decamp (Gahanna, Ohio / St. Francis DeSales) as he reached on an error, and gave the Storm a 1-0 advantage. The Cardinals tied the game with a run in the third inning. The Storm answered with a run of their own in the bottom of the inning, when Decamp singled to right field to drive home Raley. A solo homerun in the fourth and a run in the fifth gave the Cardinals a 3-2 advantage. The Storm tied the game in the bottom of the sixth when Raley hit a solo homerun. A solo homerun in the top of the seventh gave the Cardinals a 4-3 lead and the Storm fell 4-3.
The Storm took an early lead in game two in the first inning as Ryan Grieco (Murrysville, Pa. / Franklin Regional) and Rutger Luebke (Medina, Ohio / Medina) led off the inning with back to back singles. Grieco was later driven in by a Nigel Williams (Cincinnati, Ohio / La Salle) single. Raley who earlier reached on a fielder's choice was driven in by Kody Bledsoe (Elyria, Ohio / Amherst Steele), and Williams scored on an error by the catcher, to give the Storm a 3-0 advantage. The Cardinals responded with a run in the second to cut the Storm lead to 3-1. The Cardinals took a 4-3 advantage with a three run homerun in the third. The Storm tied the game in the third when Bledsoe singled home Luebke, to tie the game at four runs apiece. The Storm regained the lead in the fifth when Williams hit a three run homerun, to give the Storm a 7-4 advantage. The Cardinals added a run the seventh and two more in the ninth to tie the game at seven. The Storm won the game in the bottom of the ninth. The Storm worked the bases loaded and Bledsoe hit a sacrifice fly to right to score the pinch runner Jake Csizmadia (Elyria, Ohio / Elyria).
Lake Erie will return to the diamond Tuesday (April 5th) when they travel to take on Mercyhurst University.
