You can order Breast Milk Pendants at:
In the News:
Hello my name is Allicia, thank you for taking the time to look at my blog.
Let me start by saying that breastfeeding is one of the hardest yet most rewarding things I've ever had to do. I believe that most mothers feel this way. We've given our children the best start in one of the most selfless acts, we should wear that as a badge of honor. Why not preserve that beautiful memory with an amazing breast milk pendant made from your very own liquid gold. Wear that badge proudly :)
I have been creating MommyMilk® Breast Milk Pendants with other handmade goods and selling them through my local shop since 2007 I added selling them on Etsy and Hyena cart a little while ago, I'm excited to work with customers everywhere.
I'm a perfectionist so I strive to create the most perfect keepsake for you that I can. I make your breast milk pendant like I would want mine myself. I take my time and do the absolute best that I can to make your special keepsake as perfect as it can be, please consider this when making a purchasing decision.
Your breast milk beads will be smooth and uniform without and over abundance of bubbles. My plasticizing process takes days and concentrates YOUR milk. I have perfected my style of plasticizing breast milk over my years of doing so. Therefore, your milk bead will be smooth, shaped and contoured almost perfectly.
The color of your Breast Milk Bead™ will vary depending on your sample of milk. Some milk is more yellow than others, other milk is very thin and will create a less bright bead, if you will. There may be some areas in your Breast Milk Bead™ that appear slightly darker or whiter than the rest of the bead. This is because milk has fatty and non-fatty parts. For the most part your bead will look like a uniform color but under very close inspection you may see the slight color variations or speckles. This will not change and your bead will continue to look the same through out the years.
*First and Foremost*
When you purchase Breast Milk Pendants from me you can be positive that they will not discolor, turn yellow or spotty. I have perfected a special technique and others cannot offer this same guarantee. Your pendant will look the same as it did the day it arrived as it will years from now!
If you pendant changes at all (which would happen very shortly after purchase) I will remake it free, with the original options chosen. I personally promise that this WILL NOT happen. There is a very special process I use that I can guarantee no other seller uses, no one else will promise your milk won't turn yellow after receiving your pendant.
Your milk goes through three separate steps before I can even begin to create with it, none of which change the properties of your milk. The second step is the most important step in guaranteeing no discoloration. After the first three steps there are five more steps that are taken before your pendant starts to cure. Other breast milk pendants are made using a very simple process that will most certainly leave you with milk that will turn yellow in just a short time. Why take that chance with something so very precious, if you purchase from me you can be positive about what you're getting.
The ProcessEach pendant is made with your breast milk, I promise no substitutions. I take the care to make every pendant as if it were my very own. I use every individual mother's milk for their pendant, every item I use for my process is sterilized before I start the process over again with another mother's milk. It's extremely important to me that each individual batch of milk is treated as precious as gold. I give you my promise that every pendant is made with YOUR individual breast milk, with no contamination from any other sources.
The way this works is you send me a small amount of your breast milk, usually in a zip closure plastic bag, double bagged. You can place it in and envelope and and send it on it's way! I only need about 1-2 tablespoons of milk.
After your milk is received I put it through a five step process, preserving it and turning it into a bead made from your milk. My preservation process takes days and concentrates YOUR milk. It is NOT the same simple process that other makers use. I use only 100% your breast milk no fillers, solvents, nothing is mixed to it to achieve the preservation. Through these five steps your milk becomes petrified and can then be laid into resin being preserved forever.
Each bead is made by hand and no two will be alike. Please understand that I strive to make each and every pendant perfect, bubbles and discoloration may happen as each one is different and everyone's milk holds different properties.
Bead placement is at my discretion. If you have a certain way you would like your bead placed please just let me know.
To place your order please visit my Etsy store to place your order. From there you can select which item you would like to purchase. After you have ordered you will receive an email including the info you need to send me and my shipping address.
Shipping your itemsShipping cost to me is the buyers responsibility. It's easiest to send your milk in a strong sealed bag and double bag it, milk storage bags work the best and prevent leaking. Please do not send it in containers, this just cost more for you to ship, when bags work just as well. You can send your items double bagged (breast milk storage bags work very well) in a regular envelope or a padded envelope, your choice. Both have worked equally as well but I feel a padded envelope is more secure.
I utilize ALL breast milk that is sent to me, there is no left over milk when I'm done.
You will receive my address when you checkout and instructions on what to include with your shipment.
Completion time
Each process is long and has multiple drying periods which are longer than normal please keep this in mind, usual production time is about 10-20 weeks now due to recent increase in orders.
Production starts from the time I RECEIVE your milk, NOT the date you purchased. If it takes you two weeks to get your milk to me then it will be completed 10-20 weeks AFTER I receive it.
Please be aware that my current turn over is 10-20 weeks, if this time frame is too much for you I ask that you reconsider your purchasing decision. Time frames are just an estimate and IT MAY TAKE LONGER for you to receive your item. Please fully understand this when purchasing your item. I am not in anyway guaranteeing that your item will be done within 10-20 weeks this is just and estimate and it CAN take longer. Many factors go into making these including how much time I have to create them.
Each pendant is handmade and one of a kind, a long process goes into making your milk bead. Because each one is handmade the'll all differ slightly, so I cannot guarantee the way your pendant will look. Either way I've taken the time to preserve something so special for your, so no refunds on an item like this. Thank you for your understanding.

Mark your calendar now as Billabong's 13th Annual "Cosmic Creek" presented by Subaru is coming the weekend of September 8 and 9th, 2012. Cosmic Creek is hardly just another surf contest. Instead, it is a throwback to the 1970s and a classic surf community celebration of the unique surfboards and surfing styles that made that era unforgettable…it was all about single fins and twinies while the best surfers sported super short inseams and feathered hair.
This year's Cosmic Creek will once again feature a casual competition for all age groups. Expect local heroes, former pros, industry execs and a few of today's top surfers including Dave Rastovich, Tyler Warren, Chris Del Morro, Rob Machado, Tom Curren and Donavon Frankenreiter. They've all made their mark riding the most unusual and forgotten surfboard shapes of decades past, from Ben Aipa stingers to MR twin fins, and these will be the ones on offer for the competition.
There will also be lots of art and giveaways with Creek legend Frankenreiter (who has been a staple at the event since its inception) hosting a FREE concert on the grass overlooking the beach immediately following the contest awards ceremony. "My favorite weekend of the year?" Donavon asks rhetorically. "The Cosmic Creek weekend! How can you go wrong with retro surfboards and a free concert on the beach?"
The contest is open to the public. To enter the event, download an entry form and take it signed with payment to Hobie Dana Point or Killer Dana surf shops.
For more details click on www.Billabong.com/cosmiccreek/.
For contest entry information contact Killer Dana Surf Shop at (949) 489-8380.

Thanks to all of the pilots Jim (iaflier)- from Cedar Rapids Iowa - Robert Hawkins, James Carney, David Olivares, Jeff Bennett our mission has been successfully completed, Jim took 1 cat, 1 dog and 1 bird to Fairdealing MO to Kindred Spirit Rescue. They were housed for longer than expected. The Cat and bird stayed with Kindred Spirit Rescue (Hank Hadley) and the dog moved on with a few of his new friends. Jim picked up the pups in Fairdealing MO, met David in Decatur AL then Jeff picked them up in Bainbridge GA and added 5 more pups/dogs from a local shelter. 8-5-09 was a very long day for everyone involved but by 9pm everyone was at home - pilots- and housed - animals. Our shelter nor myself can't say enough about your group - wonderful dedicated pilots. Also many thanks to Hank for housing the animals while we were working on getting them to FL.

Earlier tonight Danny Sullivan discovered that Siri will also search Bing and Yahoo, though it searches Google by default. If you say, "Search the web for . . ." or you ask Siri a question it can't answer it will search Google (the iPhone's default search engine). But if you say, "Search Bing for Steve Ballmer News" or "Search Bing for weather" or "Search Bing for Search Engine Land" you get the following:
The same is true for Yahoo. If you say, "Search Yahoo for Wilson Phillips" or "Search Yahoo for Google Earnings" you see these results:
Who knew? Well, if you launch Siri, click the little info button, then select the Web Search option, you'll find an example listed at the end of how you can ask "Bing Alicia Keys," it turns out. But most people probably haven't done this.
Of course if you change your search settings to make Yahoo or Bing the default, Siri will search either of them instead of Google. In that scenario, you could still get to Google by saying "Search Google . . ."
Siri thus emerges as a very efficient way to compare search results or to use a second engine if you don't like what you get the first time.

"I love the kids. I may have three of my own but I have 350 that I feed here," said Mary Ann Luza.
For 16 years Luza has been a lunch lady at Johnson Elementary and for the past nine years her kitchen has scored a 100 every time the inspectors from the Brazos County Health Department have shown up.
"It's a habit that you form to make sure it's clean. That way, when the customers come in they see a clean kitchen and they'll want to come in and eat," said Luza.
Johnson Elementary holds the record for local schools with 19 straight perfect scores. A streak that started in September of 2002.
"We expect all of our schools to score 100 but to have that many consecutive 100's is an excellent job," said Sundy Fryrear with Bryan I.S.D.
Mary Ann credits the team for keeping the kitchen at Johnson Elementary clean.
"We all get in there together whether it's cooking or cleaning or just enjoying the day," said Luza.
And with such an outgoing team in the cleanest kitchen in the Brazos Valley, it's no wonder these ladies stay on the minds of former students.
"Some of the kids that were here a long time ago, they actually still remember me. That's a good feeling," said Luza
The next top performer in local schools is Pebble Creek Elementary which has scored 14 straight 100's followed by The Lamar School in Bryan which has earned 12 perfect scores.

My FMS was triggered again esp. for several weeks in the last 2 months,
sometimes I can't go out. I found I'm tired to explain about FMS people around
me since you know we don't look sick. I got FMS for 13 years,since I was 19. I
studid & work on patient advocacy (on other common chronic disease) before but I
can do nearly nothing on myself!! In the bottom of my heart I want to get enough
support from others & the society, like what I did on my patients before. I feel
so hard to let people understand me since very few people are diagnosed with FMS
in Hong Kong, I have difficulty to face friends & relatives since they think I'm
too easy to give-up a job.
Hong Kong people still concern very little about FMS after a decade. How's your
social life, friends? Soemtimes I think should I leave Hong Kong but I don't
know where to go or what to do in overseas.
I got difficulty for my job development despite I completed post-grad study.
I choose alternative medicine instead of western conventional medicine since I'm so sensitive & feel nausea even just take Acoxia .
Well, in Hong Kong, i feel walk alone on FMS.
I really wish all of us can be well & joyful.
from Hong Kong
At least here you're not alone. (((softhugs))) I hope that talking here will help.
Sorry to hear of your difficulties and loneliness with fibromyalgia in Hong Hong. Even though you feel fewer people are being diagnosed with fibromyalgia in Hong Kong compared with elsewhere, there are many people who have it even if they have not yet been officially diagnosed.
Every population study ever done with fibromyalgia shows that this condition is present in 2-5% of the population regardless of race or background. So you are really not as alone as you may think! Chances are someone you know well, or even a family member, also suffers from fibromyalgia. If you can discover others who share your experiences, you may be able to help each other cope better with this condition.
Even if you left Hong Kong, your fibromyalgia would still come with you and would still cause symptoms as it does in Hong Kong. We haven't found any cure yet in the States, or anywhere, for fibromyalgia. The best treatment we have is educating ourselves about this condition and figuring out how to manage it as best we can.
Sure it's important to have a doctor who understands your condition and can help you try different treatments to see what may work best for you. Many people with fibromyalgia are sensitive to medicines including anti-inflammatories (Acoxia is a Cox 2 type NSAID not available in the States) Many people with fibromyalgia do not respond to NSAID meds since fibro is not a true inflammation. And often, alternative treatments work best.
I'm hopeful you will be able to find a support system that includes a knowledgable doctor and a few people close to you who understand what you are going through. You are the one, though, who will keep striving to understand all you can about fibromyalgia, keep looking for things that work, and learn to live your life fully and happily in Hong Kong even if you happen to have fibromyalgia.
Remember you are not alone. This is a great site to reach out across the world and share and learn from others who know exactly how you feel.
Dr. P
My symptoms have been getting worse over time and the concentration/focusing has been the worse....I failed out of my Nursing program because of the issues. The headaches and overall pain are getting worse as time goes on and I am only 34! I am in desperate need of HELP!
I agree but I as well am suffering chronically and jusst have two points I need to get across here and hope you can give me some advice. I have had this for about 27 yrs, and I have tried so many things that either didn't work or worked for a little while. As of right now I am using Lyrica, Tramadol and Hydrocodone. As anyone might agree I get looks and comments about my pain meds as though I am abusive toward them so I just started doing what works even if it isn't the "right" thing in everyone elses eyes. So on that note let me ask about marijuana. Not because I am one of those potheads or anything but my concentration is shot. My memory is shot. So many years either in pain or taking medication has had its toll on me with no real options for me except be in pain or risk more memory issues, etc. So what do you think about the potential for using it for this? I have tried it. Let me tell you, from a Christian woman who wants nothing more than to please my Maker, it helps me. I feel the relaxation when I exhale. My nerves stop yelling at me from all different directions and I actually can concentrate on one thing and finish projects. Without it I suffer terribly. One more time I am not a pothead and do not smoke it habitually. I do relax on it though and I have not found anything else that can knock out the screams of pain and help me to just do the simple task of relaxing in order to bring relief, and relax in order to concentrate on what task I have. So another note....I have gone to Hong Kong a few times and I will just add something in there she forgot to mention or doesn't realize, I hurt when I was there increasingly because of the humidity. It is rainy and damp more than here. I also haven't held down a job for long so I had to get involved in other ways. Maybe make soaps or some kind of business you can do from home on your good days. I personally won't be productive an ounce if I haven't gotten up early. In the morning I am energetic because my back has been rested. By evening I am in pain and ready to rest my back, try an early, early job. The most work in before you find your pain building. In my house if it isn't done before noon I probably am not able to do it so 6am-noon I get all that I can done. It helps so much to learn your weaknesses and work around them Jane. You know you. Diary your pain levels for a week and see when and where you can thrive. I also live in North Carolina and San Francisco. It gets a bit damp in SF in seasons so I have to go to NC. During the winter I go to SF. Home based business works Jane because we can't live by the rules of a world that can't understand what they can not see. Ive tried for almost three decades. I actually was treated as though I were a hypochondriac for the better part of my adulthood and even as though I was/am crazy or lazy. But Im not. I am strong and can do more than most healthy people. Not because I don't hurt but because I can't let this hold me down. I need a life worth living, not in hiding in shame.
I recently sought out counseling because of my fibromyalgia and depression. I am a licensed counselor myself and recognized that I needed someone to talk to about my condition and the impact that it has had on my life. Maybe you could see a counselor in Hong Kong so that you would have someone to talk to. I agree with Dr. Pllegrino about NSAID medication. I am always given those and they do absolutely nothing!!!!! Continue to use this website as a source of support as well because we all understand what you are going through.
God bless,
Yes, i feel better after trying the Chi Kung for two weeks. Accompany with swimming, especially FMS pain of my limbs are much better after swimming at beach, the therapeutic effect of swmming at beach is much better than at swimming pools but in turn, the forces of the sea waves affect my head, make me feel dizzy so much. Most probably, the neck muscle & the ear affects each other mutually, and causing so much dizziness. I will consult my accupuncturist again on Monday, and see if my assumption is true. I feel so tired at my heart, one problem comes after the other.
The Chi Kung may make my dizziness more severe and so that I've stopped for these 3 days. I've heard that this kind of Chi Kung make petients imrpove miraculously, imcluding R.A. & heart disease. Well, i think I need 2-3 months to observe.
I know the teacher holds courses in USA. Are you friends living in US? Maybe if i really feel better from this Chi Kung, I ask the teacher for his course venues in US for you all.

Manatee detectives locate missing fugitive
Date: June 29, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
One of Manatee County's most wanted fugitives is back in custody after more than two years on the run.
Manatee County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested North Manatee resident Larry Laudig, 71, following tips garnered from a feature on the show "America's Most Wanted."
Laudig was wanted for molestation of a child under age 12. Laudig entered a guilty plea for the crime that occurred back in July 2006 but fled before his sentencing date.
Dep. Sid Jones of the Sheriff's Warrants Section, through extensive investigation, found Laudig was staying in Mexico. Deputies then conducted an international investigation with the help of the U.S. Marshal's Office and Mexican authorities. Jones worked closely with the U.S. Marshal's Office to locate Laudig in Morelia, Mexico, and extradited him back to Florida.
Laudig is now charged with failure to appear on the original case of lewd and lascivious molestation with a minor.

Zogenix competitor gets FDA approval for abuse-deterrent ER oxycodone
The FDA approved Targiniq ER, an extended-release/long-acting opioid analgesic to treat pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term opioid treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate. Targiniq ER is the second ER/LA opioid analgesic with FDA-approved labeling describing the product's abuse-deterrent properties consistent with the FDA's 2013 draft guidance for industry, the FDA stated. The FDA is requiring postmarketing studies of Targiniq ER, to assess the serious risks of misuse, abuse, increased sensitivity to pain, addiction, overdose, and death associated with long term use beyond 12 weeks. The FDA is also requiring postmarketing studies to further assess the effects of the abuse-deterrent features on the risk for abuse of Targiniq ER. In addition, Targiniq ER is part of the ER/LA Opioid Analgesics Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy. Targiniq ER is manufactured by Purdue Pharma. Zogenix has a competing pain killer drug called Zohydro ER.

I keep going back to this, from the brilliant Cleolinda:
(Here's my thought on that in a nutshell: Violent movies and videogames do not make people violent. Violent people are attracted to violent media. Of course, so are many of the rest of us, just for different reasons. I ended up watching The Matrix about 46,000 times--at one point on a three-day loop--for the book, and I shot nobody. If you want to talk about warning signs, don't look at the kid's taste in movies or his literary output--look at those two things in the context of his real-life behavior, which was already disturbing his teachers and classmates. Stephen King? A folksy, personable guy in real life. Quentin Tarantino? Full of energy and enthusiasm. Consequently, no one expects them to go on shooting rampages. The bitter, stalkative kid who won't even speak when spoken to, who also writes about bloody murder sprees? For God's sake, keep an eye on him.)
I would never say we don't need to have a less nihilistic, brutal, violent culture. But we can start working on that by refraining from blowing up so many fucking kids in the world and starving them of food and care here at home. Once we are done with that I will listen to you about shooting hookers in GTA or whatever the hell we think is the problem right now. Once we are done making sure everyone can EAT, we can get on to what disaffected suburban brats are reading these days.
The police came quickly and carried my son screaming and kicking into the bowels of the hospital. I started to shake, and tears filled my eyes as I filled out the paperwork—"Were there any difficulties with....at what age did your child....were there any problems with...has your child ever experienced...does your child have...."
At least we have health insurance now. I recently accepted a position with a local college, giving up my freelance career because when you have a kid like this, you need benefits. You'll do anything for benefits. No individual insurance plan will cover this kind of thing.
No individual insurance plan, and until the laughably toothless health care reform passed last year which has been called a staggering overreach of government power, few insurance plans AT ALL. The kinds of intensive therapies children need, even with Cadillac insurance, can bankrupt middle class families. Can bankrupt relatively wealthy families. Can, even if there is money to pay for them and doctors to provide them, can quite simply drag a family under with the grinding, every day process of staying level enough with the horizon to buy groceries and go to school.
It is one of the grand ironies of what little mental health assistance exists that when you need it most, that is when you are usually so far beyond the beyond that accessing it seems like going to the moon.
But getting back to Cleolinda's wise words up there, what we're not doing very well right now is creating a nonviolent world for any of us. (I almost wrote "our kids," as if adults have no need of peace and decency.) That violence is not, primarily, on screens or in "the media" or anywhere imaginary, but imaginary violence is all we can seem to bring ourselves to talk about when things like this happen.
It's all we can bring ourselves to try to address, because real violence, real agents of violence, are political, and controversial, and emotional and upsetting and they're going to make dinner conversation awkward and difficult. Everybody agrees that shooting fictional aliens is probably not the most productive use of anyone's time. Almost nobody agrees on the correct number of children that have to be killed in drone strikes so as to properly elevate our national dick, or how much money we spend turning schools into prisons instead of the other way fucking round.
It's like there's a list somewhere, of Things We Can Address, and it's all stuff like why so many kids have ADHD, and how parents aren't hugging their children enough, and where precisely in the schoolyard we should stick the plaque proclaiming GOD IS LOVE because that'll fix everything. It's how many teachers need to be armed, and how many cops need to be at every entrance, and the opinion that perhaps we need fewer cops in schools and OH SHIT RIGHT FEWER HOLES IN THE SCHOOLS' ROOFS WHILE WE'RE AT IT never quite makes it through the World of Warcraft soundtrack blaring on every goddamned Sunday show.
(See, already there you go, asking why I have to put it just that way. Can't I use nicer language?)
We have limited ourselves to addressing matters that don't need addressing, so as to drown out the screaming of the things that do.

Claremore Daily Progress
December 1, 2012
Share the Spirit relies on generous community
Rebecca Hattaway
Staff Writer
Along with the many hats Mickey Perry has worn over the years as a public servant, he has also given his time to a host of community organizations.
One is Share the Spirit, which Perry has been involved with for nearly 25 years. Currently, he serves as president of the board.
"I've delivered the baskets to residents and helped distribute them at the distribution point," he said. "As I became more involved, I started coordinating the goods and getting them to the distribution site. I've seen it grow from one or two hundred (baskets) to the high of over 1,000 a couple of years ago."
The program relies on an army of dedicated volunteers, many of whom have helped since the beginning.
"We have several generations of families that come out every year and look forward to it," he said. "In my own family, my son-in-law helps and my grandsons help."
Other volunteers include the Claremore High School JROTC.
"They help deliver to the senior citizens building and help carry baskets out to cars at the distribution point," Perry said. "Claremore High School also has a canned food drive that's a competition between the grades. Their help has been tremendous."
For the past several years, Cherokee Nation has donated turkeys.
"With so much community support, we are able to touch every portion of Rogers County," Perry said.
And across the county, there are so many families who could use a little extra help this Christmas.
"Sometimes bad things happen to good people. It's very heartwarming to be able to provide a Christmas meal for a family," Perry said. "All the years I've been involved, the recipients have been very appreciative and very deserving. They don't take it for granted."
Of course, the generosity of Progress readers makes it all possible.
This year's Share the Spirit goal is $22,000. So far, $1,265 has been raised with less than three weeks remaining.
"I know money is tight for everyone — especially around this time of year — but I encourage anyone who has an extra dollar or two to give it to this awesome program," Perry said. "We're all in this together and we can make a difference for those who are struggling."
Tax-deductible donations can be made to Share the Spirit, P.O. Box 248, Claremore, OK 74018, or left at the Progress office.

People from all over the Bay Area came to China Camp State Park on Aug. 11 for the annual celebration of Heritage Day. It was an especially poignant celebration this year, because as recently as a few months ago, there was great uncertainty as to whether or not the park would still be open.
Friends of China Camp, a committee of the nonprofit Marin State Parks Association, has been working all year to raise funds and garner community support for this gem of a park, which covers most of the San Pedro peninsula, along the shores of San Pablo Bay. Now that the issue of the park closure has been resolved, Friends of China Camp has become the operator of China Camp, in a partnership with California State Parks. In spite of the , supporters of China Camp understand that this park belongs to all of us.
It was a beautiful, hot sunny day, with welcome breezes coming in off the Bay. The beach in front of China Camp Village was crowded with sunbathers, swimmers, and kayakers. Artists showed their works around the village, and displays were set up by the Marin History Museum, Wildcare, Angel Island State Park, and the San Francisco Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve. Tables were set up where people could print t-shirts, learn about calligraphy and origami, or buy souvenirs. Friends of China Camp had a table where people could get maps and information about visiting the park, or become members and help support the park.
Ongoing performances took place in the center of the village, starting off with drummers and dancers from the Marin Chinese Cultural Association Lion Dancers. This was followed by a Tai Chi demonstration in which the audience was invited to participate. BoBo Jiang, a Chinese contortionist, came out to thrill the audience with astounding anatomical acrobatics. Then the Redwood Empire Chinese Association Chorus took the stage to sing songs in Mandarin. Song announcer Jean Bee Chan even taught the audience a few words in Mandarin.
One of the most touching moments of the day was when a beautiful birthday cake was brought out for Frank Quan, the last remaining resident of China Camp Village. Last year, when it was announced that China Camp State Park was one of the 70 California state parks to be closed on July 1, 2012, it suddenly became unclear what would happen to Frank. His residency at China Camp Village was written into the General Plan for the park, but would that still apply if the park was no longer open? Thankfully, those doubts have been cleared up and the park remains open. It looked like Frank had a very happy birthday.
A traditional Chinese ribbon dance was performed by Louise Kanter Lipsey, who happens to be one of the pivotal figures in the creation of China Camp State Park back in the early 1970s. Gulf Oil Company had big plans at the time for a massive commercial and residential development that would have included high-rise condos, light industry, and an influx of 30,000 people to the area. Louise found out about the secret plan in 1972 and formed Save San Pedro Peninsula to stop the development and preserve the forested hills and idyllic shoreline of China Camp. The mission of the group was "to preserve as open space the ecologically unique and environmentally significant land of the San Pedro Peninsula."
With the help of the Marin Conservation League and other local environmental and conservation groups, the efforts of Save San Pedro Peninsula paid off. The California State Park Foundation bought 1,640 acres on the peninsula in 1976 and plans began to take shape for the creation of a new park. The state of California purchased the property later that year and China Camp State Park was established the following year. Louise remains an active force in the preservation of China Camp as the park once again faces a whole new set of challenges.
The , a replica Chinese junk, was docked at the long pier that juts out into San Pablo Bay and the Alma, a historic scow schooner, arrived at 1:00, making the trip from the Hyde Street Pier in San Francisco. The Alma was greeted by the Lion Dancers, who led a procession out onto the dock and then back into the village. A drawing was held so people could take trips out on the Bay aboard the Grace Quan, one of the most popular activities of the day. As the tawny orange-brown sail was raised, the passengers gathered along the pier and prepared for a smooth ride across a calm glassy sea. It was the perfect day for a leisurely sail.
The crowds thinned out in the late afternoon and vendors began to pack up their wares. It was a beautiful day and the consensus was: China Camp is back!

It hasn't been the easiest trip she's ever made, but for Margo Pellegrino, it's one of the most important.
"This is about my home turf," she said, gesturing to the map of the New Jersey-New York shoreline and a stretch of the Atlantic Ocean labeled "Clean Ocean Zone."
It's a portion of the ocean that Clean Ocean Action, the Sandy Hook-based grassroots environmental group, has been fighting for years to keep free of pollution and uses that it contends would be damaging to the environment.
Now, the organization is trying to convince federal lawmakers to take the steps necessary to forever block any attempts to industrialize that portion of the ocean, including things like offshore drilling and transfer terminals for liquefied natural gas.
Pellegrino, who has made a name for herself kayaking along various stretches of coastline to bring awareness to ocean issues, is paddling her kayak in the Atlantic from Cape May to Montauk, at the far eastern tip of Long Island, this week and next to help promote a bill that Clean Ocean Action has written to do just that.
At the same time, Sean Dixon has been bicycling on land, also traveling from Cape May to Montauk, to garner attention from landlubbers.
Together, Pellegrino and Dixon comprise Tour for the Shore, the 15-day event organized by Clean Ocean Action to help raise awareness and, they hope, support for the bill.
"I love seeing nature on my bike," said Dixon, an attorney for Clean Ocean Action who has been active in environmental issues for more than a decade. The opportunity to educate and engage people in the fight to protect the Jersey Shore is important to him.
"Our ocean is under threat from energy companies that want to drill for oil in every square inch of our ocean," Dixon said.
"Oil would be the nail in the coffin," said Pellegrino, a mother who became active in ocean issues because she's concerned about the future her children — Billy, 10, and Julia, 7 — will face.
"They're totally what inspires me to do this," Pellegrino said of the 300 or so miles she is kayaking over the course of event. It has not been an easy trip so far.
Rough weather — including a storm Saturday that she rated as one of the top 10 worst she's ever experienced on the ocean — has made for some difficult days so far. But that has not quelled her determination to do everything she can to raise awareness of the issue, she said.
"I'm not wealthy," Pellegrino said as she relaxed at the Point Pleasant Fishermen's Cooperative on Monday after the day's journey. "The most I can hope to leave them (her children) is a clean environment."
To effectively fight the forces that want to see offshore drilling requires involvement, said Cindy Zipf, executive director of Clean Ocean Action, who grew up in Rumson and lives there now. It is the involvement of citizens that has helped to stop other plans to industrialize the ocean off the New Jersey-New York coasts, she said. Among them were plans to accept liquefied natural gas on man-made islands offshore — proposals that ultimately were rejected in the face of significant public outcry.
Zipf is hoping the same kind of public energy that was generated in the LNG fight will help make the Clean Ocean Zone a reality.
Clean Ocean Action's proposed federal legislation would bar development, ocean dumping and more within its proposed "Clean Ocean Zone," while actively supporting fishing, scuba diving and other recreational activities in that same zone.
The proposed bill does not yet have a sponsor, but Zipf and James Lovgren, director of the Point Pleasant Fishermen's Cooperative and a member of Garden State Seafood Association, hope that attention from Tour for the Shore will help generate enough interest in the bill to get it introduced in Congress.
Lovgren said the cooperation between his group, which represents commercial fishermen, and Clean Ocean Action is a natural one.
"Fishermen have so much to do trying to make a living and keep up with the government regulations on their livelihood," that they simply don't have the time always to get involved in issues such as this one, Lovgren said.
"Environmentalists represent the public but they can't show economic harm," Lovgren said. "We can show economic harm" that can result from industrializing these areas.
"It's an incredible relationship," Zipf said, hugging Lovgren. "It's bringing all of the groups together in one fight."
Zipf said the Tour for the Shore had been talked about for a few years, but this year weather and other factors made it the prime time to put the tour in motion.
Zipf also said she was inspired by the fact that this is the Chinese year of the water dragon.
"I love the feisty nature of the dragon," she said. "I think this is our year to get feisty."
On Tuesday the Tour went from Point Pleasant to Sandy Hook. The kayakers and cyclists traveled a route from Sandy Hook around the Raritan Bay to Staten Island. From there, the route will traverse the length of Long Island, before concluding next week with a "Century Ride for the Ocean," where the group is hoping 98 bicyclists will join Dixon on a celebratory bike ride around the Montauk area to drive home the goal of a clean ocean.
"This is the last pristine piece of ocean along the coastline," Zipf said. "Virginia has an LNG terminal, California is a mess, and the Gulf of Mexico is a disaster."
"We want to keep this unspoiled for all of our citizens to enjoy for years to come," Zipf said.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

ANCHORAGE (AP) — A man who sat on the North Pacific Fisheries Management Council and violated fishing regulations while a member was sentenced Friday to five months in federal prison.
Arne Fuglvog was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge H. Russel Holland, who said the real crime committed was not monetary but to the reputation of the agency responsible for regulating fishing.
In addition, Fuglvog will have to pay a $50,000 fine and pay $100,000 to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, which will be used to improve fish habitat in the Gulf of Alaska.
In a tearful statement to the court, Fuglvog expressed remorse for his actions and said he had no excuse for violating the regulations.
Fuglvog was also a former fisheries aide for U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska.
Fuglvog pleaded guilty in federal court in Anchorage last August to one count of violating the Lacey Act for falsely reporting where he caught sablefish that were intended for interstate commerce.
A plea agreement initially called for Fuglvog to serve 10 months in prison. However, in a sentencing memorandum filed last week, the government cited his cooperation in recommending a five-month sentence.
The charge in Fuglvog's case carries a maximum sentence of one year in imprisonment, $100,000 fine and one year of supervised release.
The falsified records earned Fuglvog an extra $100,000 from commercial fishing in the Gulf of Alaska.
He signed the plea deal in April, but it was made public in August when the agreement was filed the day after he resigned from Murkowski's staff.
According to the agreement, Fuglvog had a permit to harvest about 30,000 pounds of sablefish — considered a delicacy in many countries — from the western Yakatat area in 2005.
He actually caught about 63,000 pounds of fish in the area that year and then falsified records indicating he caught the extra 33,000 pounds of fish in the Central Gulf area, according to the court document.
Federal prosecutors say an investigation by law enforcement officers with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration led to an indictment in the case.
Federal prosecutors and Fuglvog also agree that he will make an announcement in the National Fisherman Magazine "acknowledging his wrongdoing," the court papers state.
Fuglvog went to work in Murkowski's Washington office in 2006. His work largely focused on fisheries issues, but he also worked on transportation and Arctic issues, according to Murkowski.

On Thursday November 15th in memory of the Lilburn Georgia Fire of 1920, Firehouse Subs Restaurant in Lilburn Ga will give away Free drinks to all visitors to honor the Firemen of Lilburn Ga. Everyone can enjoy a free drink with a choice of 127 flavors from our Coke Freestyle machine. No purchase is necessary.
Owner Grady Griffin stated "My brother Benjy and I are very excited to bring Firehouse Subs to Lilburn Ga. Since we were raised in a small Georgia town (Hawkinsville) and, we love the small town feel that Lilburn possesses. Everyone has shown us tremendous support, including the City of Lilburn employees, Police Department, Fire Department, landlord, fellow merchants, and the community."
Firehouse Subs is located at 4145 Lawrenceville Highway in Lilburn 30047 and is open Monday-Sunday 10:30am - 9pm. The restaurant offers over-sized portions of premium hand-sliced meats and cheeses, steamed to make the flavors burst, then piled high with fresh produce atop a toasted sub roll. Founded in Jacksonville, Fla., by former firefighting brothers Chris Sorensen and Robin Sorensen, the restaurant's authentic firehouse setting is based on the founding family's 200 years of firefighting heritage.
Every Firehouse Subs restaurant boasts a custom, hand-painted mural and this location features a scene from the disastrous fire on November 15, 1920, when the Lilburn Supply Company caught fire and nearly burned the entire business section of town. Shown fighting the flames is the volunteer bucket brigade, whose heroic work saved the residential area of town. After learning the impact of the fire on the city of Lilburn, there was no doubt that this piece of history is what we wanted to feature in our restaurant.
For the past 18 years, Joe "Art Brush" Puskas has been behind the creation of each and every hand-painted mural that adorns the walls of all Firehouse Subs restaurants. These works of art pay tribute to the local community, and no one mural is the same. Since the opening of Firehouse Subs in 1994, Joe has painted more than 500 murals and counting.

About Cladribine
Cladribine is a type of chemotherapy that belongs to a class of drugs called antimetabolites. These medications are taken up by cells and are able to prevent the cells from reproducing by inhibiting DNA synthesis.
How to Take Cladribine
Cladribine is given by intravenous (into a vein) infusion. The infusion can be given either over 1-2 hours on several consecutive days, or as a continuous infusion over 5-7 days, depending on the protocol used by the doctor. The actual dose is dependent upon your body size.
Possible Side Effects of Cladribine
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Cladribine. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
Low White Blood Cell Count (Leukopenia or Neutropenia)
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4 F), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
For more suggestions, read the Neutropenia Tip Sheet.
Low Red Blood Cell Count (Anemia)
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion. Read the anemia tip sheet for more information.
Low Platelet Count (Thrombocytopenia)
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nosebleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If your platelet count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
Read the thrombocytopenia tip sheet for more information.
Nausea and/or Vomiting
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
There are several things you can do to prevent or relieve constipation. Include fiber in your diet (fruits and vegetables), drink 8-10 glasses of non-alcoholic fluids a day and keep active. Your doctor or nurse can also recommend medications to relieve constipation. A stool softener once or twice a day may prevent constipation.
Decrease in Appetite
Visit OncoLink's section on Nutrition for tips on dealing with this side effect. Ask your nurse about nutritional counseling services.
While on cancer treatment you may need to adjust your schedule to manage fatigue. Plan times to rest during the day and conserve energy for more important activities. Exercise can help combat fatigue; a simple daily walk with a friend can help. Talk to your healthcare team and see OncoLink's section on fatigue for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
Muscle or Joint Pain/Aches and Headache
Your doctor or nurse can recommend medication and other strategies to relive pain. Also view OncoLink's page on pain management.
Fever can occur after the dose of cladribine is given. Fever is most commonly seen when treating hairy cell leukemia. You should always contact your doctor if you develop a fever, as it could be related to an infection.

The Tribune-Star
A search for a new superintendent of the Vigo County Parks and Recreation Department will start next month.
Peggy Harlan, a member of the Vigo County Park Board's personnel committee, said the committee will post the superintendent position on Vigo County's website under personnel and job openings from Jan. 7 to Jan. 11.
"I think we will have a lot of applications just from that week," Harlan said after the Park Board's Wednesday meeting at the Vigo County Annex.
The committee then hopes to have a recommendation to bring to the full Park Board at its Feb. 25 meeting. Kara Kish, assistant superintendent, is considered a leading candidate for the position.
Harlan said park Superintendent Keith Ruble will remain in his position while that search is conducted and perhaps until early summer.
Ruble on Wednesday submitted a letter to the board stating it has been his pleasure to work for the county. Ruble, 66, said that due to his age and "other interests, I will resign my position as superintendent no later than June 1, 2013."
"I have enjoyed working with many outstanding people over the years and plan to continue my involvement alongside my successor and other individuals to continue to do good things for the people of Vigo County," Ruble said.
In other business, the Park Board received a check for $9,615 from the estate of Betty Lavern Smith. Smith donated money to establish the Kenneth E. Smith Memorial Park, which includes a labyrinth in Hawthorn Park.
Kish requested the board accept the estate check and earmark it for maintenance of the labyrinth. Kish stated she would like to use about $2,000 in 2013 to replace some wrought iron fencing around the memorial as well as place a sign acknowledging the work of the Wabash Valley Master Gardeners Association Inc. which maintains the site.
Kish said the remaining $8,000 would last five to 10 years, as some areas of the stone labyrinth may need to be repaired or replaced over the next decade. In addition, the park department pays about $500 to the gardeners association for chemicals, such as weed killer, and some supplies for the site. The board unanimously approved to accept the check and earmark the funds for the memorial site.
Reporter Howard Greninger can be reached at 812-231-4204 or email@example.com.

So, had I bought it new, I would have been down $4000 now, not counting interest paid on the loan I would have taken out for that amount, as I had $17K (with trade-in) but not $21K.
My plan was to drive the car until I died or it did, but I am thinking of selling it and getting something smaller and more fuel efficient. I want a Prius, but damn, they are expensive.

Ideal for general use applications such as blood work, transferring supernatant, adding reagents/chemicals and extracting samples for analysis.
The Cell Saver has a large aperture tip to prevent cell damage and to aid in the pipetting of viscous liquids, whilst the 9 Inch and Jumbo Pastettes are perfect for accessing deep vessels such as Winchesters and tissue culture flasks.
Ideal for accessing small diameter tubes of varying lengths such as cuvettes and analyser cups. The stems can be heat-sealed to create a deep freeze, transport or storage container.
Fine Tip
Ideal for precise control work such as PCR, reagent preparation, blood/serum separation, gel loading and adding samples to culture plates. Indeed, any application where the addition or removal of liquid through a small aperture or where a small drop volume is required. In addition, the Extended Fine Tip Mini Pastette is perfect for colony picking from agar plates.
Designed to replace glass Pasteur pipettes, Pastettes are unbreakable, don't require a separate bulb and, as they are manufactured from soft plastic, can be recycled. A key property is that they will not pierce the skin – a major worry in the modern laboratory.
Manufactured from virgin lowdensity polyethylene (LDPE), they provide a precise, non-toxic and inert method for transfer, delivery and storage of samples or reagents.
Bulb Draw
This defines the maximum liquid volume that may be transferred. However, Pastette is just as effective when less than the maximum bulb draw is used.
Bulb Sensitivity
Manufacturing precision produces a bulb with a uniform thickness. This means that the bulb is strong enough to draw up and hold your sample securely, whilst being soft and even enough to allow sensitive dispensing of single drops of liquid as small as 18µl.
Drop Volume
All Pastettes are accurate to ±10% of the stated specifications including drop volume, allowing quantitation without the use of an expensive pipetting device.
An important dimension, it allows Pastette to match your exact requirements. From the shortest (36mm) to the longest (300mm), they all retain the features you would expect from a Pastette.
Tip Design
The design of the tip is of paramount importance as it decides not only the drop volume, but also the procedures for which Pastette may be used. This is why Pastette provides a number of tip styles to cater for a wide variety of applications.
Pastette Benefits
All Pastettes are traceable to the exact mould and date of manufacture – your absolute assurance of quality.
Sturdy packaging – keeps Pastettes in perfect condition during transport and storage until required for use.
Sterile Pastettes are Gamma-irradiated – certified, lot traceable and heatsealed in polyethylene in 10s, 20s or individually wrapped.
