Hey ladies....I will be joining the IVF sisters very soon! Will be starting meds on 26th July (CD21). Just had second results of hubby's SA last week and as expected, the numbers remain bad Thank god for IVF if not we will never be able to have kids with his condition. Doc says I will need to inject myself (with meds) for the next 5 weeks (from CD21) . I have never done this before....will it hurt??? I've got gazillion questions coming (as the treatment start) so please bear with me! Any advise for IVF graduates would be helpful!
MSPY, Welcome to the sisterhood! I wish I could promise that the shots won't be uncomfortable but I can tell you that I can do it with my eyes closed at this point. You get used to it pretty quick and I HATE NEEDLES so if I can do it anyone can. As I was advised earlier today by one of my IVF sisters here on the site keep your eyes and heart on the babies you're praying for and you'll be able to do anything. Since I'm post-transfer and waiting for my BFP I'm only taking the progesterone shots right now and praying that it's only a few more weeks of needles. Good luck to you and I'll keep you in my prayers.
Hello laides...
I'm just checking in to see how you're all doing. Are you hanging in there? Heather let's just hope you have one very hungry eggie! Carriann- Good luck...I hope that BFN turns into a BFP! Lisa...how are you doing...injections going ok????? We sent off our adoption application today!
Take care...
Miss you ladies!!!
Welcome, mspy. It sucks that we all have to go through this to get pg, but the shots ARE DOABLE. I'm a total needle-phobe, too, but I did all the subQs, and DH is doing the IMs now. He's worse than I am. So it is possible and, as burbank said, it is for the best of all possible reasons! KUP!
Guys, I struggled with whether or not I should post this, b/c a part of me thinks it's incredibly selfish when others are struggling with far worse issues...but I'm going to do it anyway and hope that you won't think I'm awful. I got my fertilization report today and, of the 26 eggs, 20 were mature but only 6 fertilized. Now, I know it's great that I have six embies growing away (really, really, I do know this!) but I can't help but be disappointed. What happened to the other 14 good eggs? Is this normal? I've googled my butt off but can't find anything about the ratio of mature eggs retrieved to fertilized. Anyone know anything? My regular RN was out sick today, and the nurse who called left a 10s message with no further info, no context, no nothing.... My biggest concern is how many of those 6 will keep going strong. We really want to make it to 5dt since we can only put 1 in. I'm so sorry to whine, I'm just so worried that after all of this hard work we might have to gamble on a 3dt with only one shot.... Thanks, as always, for listening, supporting and not judging. I promise to pull it together tomorrow, I'm just bumming today.
malf, I think you're just being human. I think it's normal to wonder why one and not the other proceeds. Don't beat yourself up. We all have our down moments and then hopefully with the love and support of our IVF sisters get back on track. Hang in there!
Jess, I had my two IUIs last week---I am officially in the 1ww!
Malf, that is what we are here for.
I would be upset, too, so don't beat yourself up.
Wow...i have missed so much!!
ICURN...Cramping is very normal so just hang in there!!
MAL...not all eggs fertilize....everyone is different. I think six is a great number...that's three now and three for later. plus 3 is my lucky #.
Lisa...That would be great...I have yet to meet anyone, but i have a lot of close friends from here. But as luck would have it, I will need to see an RE again...i have taken HPTs from 6DPT till yesterday and although I had a skinny BFP on the 6th, it has since dwindled to nada. So onward and upward. DH and are are going to try the old fashion way for a few months since we conceived twice in 5 months that way before going to the RE. Does anyone know what your fertility is like post failed IVF procedure?? More or less fertile?
Good Luck Mal on your Transfer...GROW EMBIES GROW!!

Ladies, you are amazing. I realize I am an emotional, hormonal wreck, but the tears in my eyes this morning are genuine gratitude. Thank you for your support.
burbank, Lisa, thank you.
Lee Ann, you are so strong it is truly amazing. I will continue to pray that your sticky BFP isn't far away.
Today, I am making a choice to be positive. To know that I have 5 little embies dividing away - 2 2cells, 1 3cell and 2 4cells - one of whom will be coming home with me tomorrow after 3dt. This is how it was meant to be for us, I have faith.
Hugs to all.
Malf~I think it is common to question "what happened?" Don't feel selfish for that~I know I did the same thing!
Isolt~Maybe just maybe your count isn't high enough yet?? You are a really strong woman!
All of you have been amazing! No matter what happens tomorrow I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers!
Malf - I asked my RE that same question, the first time & he explained that when mother nature selects our eggs for fertilisation she only selects the best, when an RE selects our eggs he selects them all, so you have six of the best and they look like they are growing nicely.
Isolt- my doctor recommended taking breaks between IVF cycles as it helps your body readjust and prepare itself for whatever we decide to put it through both physically & mentally. Its great to have fun with your DH without having to think OMG is it 9pm time for my next shot. I think the fertility treatment does help your chances in between especially when you already have the proof you can concieve, I didn't have such luck. So go girl have fun.
I woke up this morning with that I'm not pregnant again feeling, my boobs don't feel as sore but they are ichy, my cramps and sharp pains have left me although my back is a wee bit achy. I gave my belly a rub and just prayed that the little ones are just bedded in place for our long journey and all my hormones are having a nap, Hopefully acupuncture this afternoon will put me back in my happy postive place.
So ladies no more stressing, we are positive, we are deserving & for those that don't have BFP the best are yet to come.

I am so sorry, Lee Ann.
I am already feeling really negative about this cycle. I know that isn't helpful, but I am really moody today and just being honest.
Hey Ladies! I've been following this thread for a while now and hope you don't mind if I pop in. I just wanted to say that I wish you all the best of luck and am hoping you ALL get a BFP! I'm in the very early stage of IVF myself.
BTW, I have a question maybe you girls can help me with: my CD3 B/W & U/S was Sunday, and my RE said my Estrogen level was a little high @ 181 and is prescribing Clomid for me to start today for 5 days. What were your CD3 Estrogen levels like, and did any of you have to take Clomid pre-IVF?? I took it before, prior to IUI, but it messed with the length of my cycle some then, so I guess I'm a little concerned about that now.
Positive vibes!!
Me(33) DH(35), TTC #1 since 2005
IVF #1 - Aug. 2008 (canceled midway)
IVF #2 - Nov. 2008 BFN
MAggie, the only thing I have heard about high E2 on CD 3 is that it can be a mask for high FSH. What was your FSH?
But it sounds like your doctor has a plan. And if it makes you feel any better, plenty of moms here had high FSH and got pregnant. At least one without IVF!
Just an update on me... my 3rd IUI did not work So moving on to #4. I was originally not wanting to do one this month, but DH and I had a nice discussion, and we decided that since I will be out of summer school on the 22nd, and the IUI would be the 23rd, it would be perfect timing, and no stress setting up an appointment with the doctor, all that good stuff.
So my plan of action this month. Get back to the gym when AF settles a bit, have a mani pedi and massage the day before the IUI (Christmas gift from DH that I haven't used yet!!), and complete relaxation for the following two weeks. At the end of the two weeks (give a few days), I will be heading on vacation with my family, and I am praying that I will have some news to share with them soon after... (I won't tell anyone but DH until after the first u/s).
So, I'm gonna hit the ground running as soon as the cramps let up!!!
Good luck to the rest of the ladies waiting on their results... and save me a spot in expecting
Hi, I am new to APA. I feel a little awkward because I don't know what all the initials mean yet in your posts, but I think I'll catch on... My husband and I have been TTC since March 2006. Began medical intervention this spring. I thought I had endometriosis. Turns out I have one scarred fallopian tube and he has low motility and morphology. We had our first IUI June 27th (my birthday), and my period is due Sunday, so I really felt like I needed to talk to others who have gone/are going through this...I think it will help me cheer up to read all of your posts full of positive attitudes!! Take care, all of you, and thanks for reading. -Sarah
Lisa & Max, I am so right there with you both! I would have sworn yesterday that I am preggers and today, NADA! No cramping just back pain and now I'm convinced it's AF on her way to start my $15,000.00 period. My progesterone shot last night was a fiasco because the oil started to ooze back out of the injection site (sorry TMI). AARRGGHHH!!!!!
Pulled out my pom poms this morning and called my RN for a little baby cheer but it ain't working today. I'm going back to work tomorrow so my little vacation is over and I'm hoping that I can pull the hormones together enough to not leap over my desk when the first stupid question of the day is asked. Ok, I'm done griping and moaning. Thanks for letting me get it out. I'll try to be a good girl and keep looking at all the cute baby stuff I plan to cram into my house when I get my BFP. Lot's of love to you all...you're my lifeline right now.
Tarabithia -- Sounds like a great plan. Aren't spa gift certificates great? I'm sending you lots of baby dust for this cycle.
Sstefanich -- Welcome and good luck. I hope you get your bfp this month.
I can't even tell you what a source of comfort this room has been for me. I really appreciate each and every one of you.
I hate the 2 ww. With. a. passion.
I had my beta drawn this AM~now I am just waiting anxiously for the call!!!!
I am 40 and my husband is 39, we've been married 7 months now and have been trying to conceive before we got married. Back in March we decided to go with fertility treatments - our first IUI didn't take and we went straight for IVF - the retrieval was done on 6/24 four follicles were taken. I got the call on 6/26 that I had two embryos, then another call on 6/27 with the same information and was asked to come in sooner for the transfer. Between 8:15 and 10:30 my husband got a call from the doctor (not ours) saying there was a 'technical accident' - what we later found out was during the assisted hatching, the shell was 'lysed' therefor deystroying our one embryo - we were later told the 2nd embryo did not develop overnight - we are now at a crossroads - we are meeting with our fertility doctor in the morning and have another appointment on Friday with another facility - I know no one can tell me what to do, but part of me can do this and the other part can't - I just can't get over the fact that the only good embryo I had was 'damaged'
The doctor has said that he would put me on follistrim again, along with Lupron so the chances of more follicles will be there - but what if?
Has anyone here ever had a situation like this??
Welcome, Sarah!!! Glad to have you!
Do you feel comfortable enough with your RE to ask them to repeat your cycle at their expense due to their error? It may not work but it never hurts to ask. Good luck and send you lots of positive vibes.
I'm new to the board, but not to TTC so I am jumping right in with ya'll. Just went to RE today, it's CD6 for me. I was on Bravelle 150 and Micro Ovidrel 10 ml injections. My estrogen level was 107 today so they upped my Bravelle to 225. Yikes...Kinda worried, but I go back in on Friday for more BW and US. Hopefully to do IUI Sunday or Monday...Good Luck ladies...

Customizing SMF > Forks Discussion
Rules for open-source SMF Fork Discussion Board
Angelina Belle:
What is a Fork?
Any alternative or derived version of a piece of software is called a fork, because its developers have taken a different "fork in the road". The BSD license chosen for SMF 2.0 permits, and even encourages community members to create their own forks, each with their own unique names. Community members can feel free to experiment, to share the results of their experiments, and to test others' experiments. The community and the team should benefit.
What is this board for?
This board is intended to help promote and develop the SMF forum software and the SMF community by providing a place to discuss any available forks of SMF. Because permissive open-source licenses like BSD make it easy for everyone to build on each other's experience, we wish to encourage others to use an open-source license.
Rules of this board
* This board is for discussion of open-source forks of SMF 2.
* You may showcase your fork here, if it is an open-source fork of SMF, and if you have followed the requirements of SMF's license agreement.
* You may not showcase or advertise any non-open-source fork.
* You may discuss, analyze, compare, contrast, and post benchmark results comparing SMF and any SMF forks.
* Discussions must remain civil, respectful, polite.
* Once a moderator has been appointed, he or she will encourage posters to state their points in friendly and respectful ways. The moderator may delete any posts which are not in keeping with the site's use policy. The moderator may request rewording of, or even delete, any posts which serve as advertisements for non-open-source forks of SMF.

text: By M.L. ElrickFox 2 Investigative ReporterDETROIT (WJBK) -- The Kilpatrick Civic Fund espoused lofty goals:"To promote community activities that enhance the neighborhoods in which the citizens of Detroit reside as well as those activities that contribute to the betterment of the lives of the youth of Detroit and surrounding communities."But in 10 years of reporting on the nonprofit's activities, I have yet to see proof that it spent any of the more than $1.8 million it raised on its noble purpose.Instead, that loot was spent on:A Cadillac DeVille for Kwame Kilpatrick;Political polling for Kilpatrick's first mayoral campaign;A romantic getaway in Vail for Kilpatrick and mistress Christine Beatty;Yoga lessons for Kilpatrick and his associates;Golf clubs and a carry bag embroidered with "MAYOR";A stay at a luxury resort for Kilpatrick and his family;Camp fees for the sons of Kilpatrick and a former frat buddy;Countersurveillance equipment;Crisis managers;A donation to Kilpatrick's alma mater (which he later falsely claimed as a deduction on his personal tax return);Tuition assistance for Kilpatrick's half-sister and cousin;Stays at water parks for Kilpatrick family and friends;A six-figure consulting fee for Kilpatrick's mistress;Rent for the nonprofit after it moved into his sister's house;Moving costs for Kilpatrick's family;And rent for Kilpatrick's family.Since its founding in 1999, the nonprofit's officials have refused to disclose specifics on expenditures that would benefit anyone who is not a friend or family member of Kwame Kilpatrick.The closest they've ever come was in 2007 when, responding to criticism of a luxury resort stay by Kilpatrick and his family, Beatty and another Kilpatrick Civic Fund leader said the mayor spent some of the trip soliciting donations for the fund. They refused to identify with whom Kilpatrick met.They also claimed the fund paid for voter-education drives, town meetings to educate seniors on the dangers of reverse mortgages, and money for marching bands and Detroit public schools. Again, they offered no specifics.Kilpatrick attorney Jim Thomas has argued in court that spending that burnished Kilpatrick's image was justified because, as the titular head of the fund, any taint to his name would affect fundraising.And, as we all know, Kilpatrick did plenty during his six years as mayor to taint his name.Unfortunately, it appears the fund spent so much money repairing Kilpatrick's image -- and raising money so it could spend money to repair Kilpatrick's image -- that there was little left to help the people the fund was supposedly created to help.Hopefully, Thomas will provide some evidence that ordinary Detroiters benefited in some way -- any way -- from the fund after the defense goes on the offense.In the meantime, we're left with the distinct impression that the nonprofit's real purpose is buried within its name.Take the D, 2 Cs, V and 2 Is out of "Kilpatrick Civic Fund," and you're left with the account's REAL purpose:K-I-L-P-A-T-R-I-C-K F-U-N.Follow M.L.

(RNN) - Small airport towers that faced closure due to sequestration received another reprieve from the U.S. Department of Transportation.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said in a statement on Friday that there is enough money to keep the towers open through the end of the fiscal year. Due to furloughs and cuts, the towers were to close June 15.
The extra money came from the recently enacted Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 passed by Congress on April 25 after long lines and delays due to furloughs at airports across the country.
The bill allows the Federal Aviation Administration to transfer money to "end employee furloughs and keep the 149 low activity contract towers originally slated for closure in June open for the remainder of fiscal year 2013." The FAA still must cut $637 million from its budget, but now it has more leeway to determine from where in the budget the agency can cut.
The fiscal year ends Sept. 30.
The closures and furloughs were a result of sequestration – the $85 billion in spending cuts
that went into effect on March 1 after Congress did not pass a budget.
LaHood's statement reads:
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced today that DOT has determined that the recently enacted Reducing Flight Delays Act of 2013 will allow the FAA to transfer sufficient funds to end employee furloughs and keep the 149 low activity contract towers originally slated for closure in June open for the remainder of fiscal year 2013. The FAA will also put $10 million towards reducing cuts and delays in core NextGen programs and will allocate approximately $11 million to partially restore the support of infrastructure in the national airspace system.

Esquire by George Lois
"I think advertising should be like poison gas. It should grip you by the throat, it should bowl you over." So said George Lois, the pioneering art director whose "big ideas" in the 60s cut through the smarmy sentimentalism of advertising in the previous decade, replacing it with bold, rebellious gestures, white space and an arresting, modernist design aesthetic. Though Lois was responsible for reinventing MTV, ESPN and Tommy Hilfiger, he is most famed—and rightly so—for his decade-long series of covers for Esquire beginning in 1962. These daring images, which included Muhammad Ali posing as St Sebastian and Andy Warhol drowning in a can of Campbell's soup, confronted the issues of the time with intuitive humor and immediacy, inspiring designers for decades after. George Lois: The Esquire Covers at MOMA is out from Assouline in March.

A Wayne County Circuit Court judge knocked Mike Duggan off the ballot Tuesday siding with mayoral candidate Tom Barrow and labor activist Robert Davis. She ruled Duggan had not been a Detroit resident for a year at the time of filing.Duggan announced Wednesday he is taking the case to the Court of Appeals."I am the first candidate in history who has been removed from the ballot for filing too early," he said. "Had anybody said to me, you know, you can't file until one year from when you registered, you need to come back on April 16, 2013, I would've taken the forms home and come back two weeks later and filed them.""We're confident that we will get this reversed.""It doesn't make any difference whether he appeals to the state courts, to the world court of the Hague or even to Captain Kirk's United Federation of Planets, it's not going to change because the decision was rooted in the case law," Barrow said."He needs to blame himself. He needs to look in the mirror and say Mike Duggan messed up. I failed to follow the law, and as a former prosecutor, it's kind of ludicrous at best that now he's trying to say the law should not be followed," Davis said."I am embraced by Detroiters as a Detroiter in every neighborhood that I go to, and I am staying in the city for the long run no matter what," Duggan said. "I'm pretty sure if they get a chance to vote between me and Mr. Barrow, Detroiters will express their own opinion."Absentee ballots go out on June 22, so this has to be resolved fairly quickly. The expectation is that the Court of Appeals will rule within the next few days.

Will the mayor please stand up and say something?
I'm talking about the pathetic spectacle I witnessed Thursday night at an east-side church.
Mayor Dave Bing held a town hall meeting, not because he wanted to but because he was required to by law.
The church was filled with a posse of cops and laid-off city workers and citizens afraid to walk their own blocks. They let Hizzoner have it, raining down on him with an avalanche of ridicule and humiliation, stuff I am not allowed to repeat here.
It must have been a heavy load because the mayor couldn't bring himself to stand -- not even once -- to address the people.
He was a gray man in a gray suit. A shifty-eyed squirrel cornered by a clowder of cats. He was feeble.
Imagine other mayors in times of hardship -- Coleman Young, Rudy Giuliani, even Rahm Emanuel in Chicago -- trying to hide behind their nameplates.
Bing, as is his custom, had nothing to offer a city in need of hope. The former NBA star was an empty pair of high-tops.
What might he have said if he had the courage to stand and bang his heel on the pulpit? He could have told police he was taking their money because it was a necessary sacrifice and that he would be reinvesting some of that money into the department to make the city and their workplace safer.
But all the mayor could muster was some lame sociology that it was the community's obligation to stop the violence in their community.
He was howled down for that one.
Someone asked Bing about his plan to turn over Belle Isle to the state. Instead of standing tall behind his decision, perhaps explaining that it was a money saver, that the suburbs would pick up most of the tab, that the park would once again be clean and safe, he waffled: "We do not have a deal. We have a format for understanding."
What does that mean?
How a guy can back-pedal and juggle while sitting in a chair amazed everybody. Hey, I said, that's why he's a hall of famer.
Bing's tongue along with his courage must have gone numb sitting in that chair because when he was summoned to give his closing remarks, he slipped out the back -- the police protecting him from the police.

Amarillo, Texas - There was a lot of concern anhydrous ammonia may have been leaked after the West, Texas explosion.
The chemical is used in fertilizer. It is a colorless, highly irritating gas with a sharp and suffocating odor. Local farmers tell us this gas can have serious effects including burning of the eyes, nose and throat after breathing small amounts and can even burn skin.
Anhydrous ammonia is often used here in our area by farmers.
Local farmers we spoke with today say anhydrous ammonia is often used along with other chemicals on their crops here in the panhandle.
Canyon farmer and rancher, Bob Lindsey says farmers go through extensive training on how to safely handle these substances, and are taught what to do if there ever is a fire or other incident.
The Amarillo Fire Department says their hazmat team is capable of handling chemical spills, and often do.
"Our hazmat team has got a mutual aid agreement with the whole entire panhandle, and we'll go anywhere that we're called because we do have the resources to help identify and do chemical sampling. Not only does it benefit the citizens here, but this actual program will benefit the whole panhandle if need be," Captain Jacob Oehlert, Amarillo Fire Department Community Relations says.
Oehlert says the majority of chemicals seen in our area that could cause an explosion similar to what was seen in west come through on rail car or trucks on I-40.

An Authentic Ragu Bolognese
In Britain it's really sad that so often stewed mince with the addition of herbs and tomato purée gets presented as bolognaise sauce – even, dare I say it, in lesser Italian restaurants. Yet properly made, an authentic ragù Bolognese bears absolutely no resemblance to this travesty.
The real thing is a very slowly cooked, thick, concentrated, dark mahogany-coloured sauce, and because of this, very little is needed to coat pasta and give it that unmistakably authentic and evocative flavour of Italy.
For me making ragù is something of a ritual; it's not at all difficult, but if you give a little of your time to make it in bulk, then freeze some down for the future, you'll always have the basis of a delightful meal ready-prepared when there's no time to cook.
Makes 8 x 8 oz (225 g) portions, each serving 2 people
|1 lb (450 g) lean minced beef
|1 lb (450 g) minced pork
|6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
|1 x 8 oz (225 g) tub chicken livers
|2 medium onions, finely chopped
|4 fat garlic cloves, chopped
|5oz (150 g) pancetta or streaky bacon, finely chopped
|2 x 400 g tins Italian chopped tomatoes
|2 x 200 g tubes double concentrate tomato purée
|1 x 37.5 cl half bottle red wine (or 400 ml/14 fl oz)
|1 oz (25 g) fresh basil
|½ whole nutmeg, grated
|salt and freshly milled black pepper
|Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 1, 275°F (140°C).
|Need help with conversions?
|You will also need a large flameproof casserole of 6 pint (3.5 litre) capacity.
This recipe is taken from Delia's Winter Collection
First take a large frying pan, the largest you have, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil and gently fry the onion and garlic over a medium heat for about 10 minutes, moving it around from time to time. While the onion is softening, chop the pancetta: the best way to do this after opening the pack is to roll the contents into a sausage shape, then using a sharp knife slice it lengthways into 4, then slice the lengths across as finely as possible.
After 10 minutes, add this to the pan to join the onions and garlic and continue cooking them all for another 5 minutes. Now transfer this mixture to the casserole. Add another tbsp of oil to the pan, turn the heat up to its highest then add the minced beef and brown it, breaking it up and moving it round in the pan. When the beef is browned tip it into the casserole. Heat another tbsp of the oil and do exactly the same with the minced pork.
While the pork is browning, trim the chicken livers, rinse them under cold running water, dry them thoroughly with kitchen paper and chop them minutely small. When the pork is browned, transfer it to the casserole, then heat the remaining tablespoon of oil and brown the pieces of chicken liver.
Add these to the casserole. Now you've finished with the frying pan, so get rid of that and place the casserole over the direct heat, give everything a good stir together, then add the contents of the tins of tomatoes, the tomato purée, red wine and a really good seasoning of salt, pepper and nutmeg. Allow this to come up to simmering point.
Then strip the leaves from half the basil, chop them very finely and add them to the pot. As soon as everything is simmering, place the casserole on the centre shelf of the oven and leave it to cook slowly, without a lid, for 4 hours. It's a good idea to have a look after 3 hours to make sure all is well, but what you should end up with is a thick, concentrated sauce with only a trace of liquid left in it, then remove it from the oven, taste to check the seasoning, strip the leaves off the remaining basil, chop them small and stir them in.
Then when the sauce is absolutely cold, divide it, using scales, by spooning 8 oz (225 g) into polythene freezer bags. Seal them leaving a little bit of air at the top to allow room for expansion. Each 8 oz (225 g) pack, thoroughly defrosted and re-heated, will provide enough ragù for 8 oz (225 g) pasta, which will serve 2 people.
Note: If you don't have a 3.5 litre/6 pint capacity ovenproof casserole you can use a large baking dish preheated in the oven, but make sure everything comes up to simmering point in a large saucepan first.

Comments about SB-GOWN IVORY SATIN:
I purchased these shoes for my destination wedding on June 21, 2014 and they are absolutely beautiful. I had my eye on them for months and finally decided to order them online. The size is perfect and the heel is not too high. I was worried the ivory satin color would not match my winter white dress, however they look great together, I feel like a movie star in them. Can't wait to wear them!!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Plus, they don't have the unfavorable, massive look that most boots have. The leather and materials that make up the boots accompany the sporty, athletic design and masculine colors, and the padded tongue with the trendy logo on it isn't a bad touch either.
However, you can be sure that the cool design doesn't compromise the durability. The sturdy lace closure system and reinforced sole delivers traction and a dependable quality that you can rely on when conditions outside are less than unfavorable.

Flu – given at separate visits in October or November at ages 3, 4, and 5
ETA: This is in reference to 2009-2010 flu season, but still has good info about brands and dosing (for LO, teens and adults). I'm also choosing to highlight Dr. Sears following comment on that article that I think is important to know:
Meningococcal – once approved for age 2, Dr Sears plans to move it there and delay Hep B by 6 months.TIMING THE FLU VACCINE WITH OTHER VACCINES
Because the flu vaccine is so reactive (likely to cause fever and flu-like side effects), I prefer to avoid giving it with other reactive shots (like MMR, Hep B, Chickenpox, or the H1N1 vaccine). I recommend at least one month between the flu shot and any of these. I would place the priority on the flu shot over the MMR, Hep B or Chickenpox; delay any of those until it's been at least a month after the flu shot.
MMR – now that Merck is stopping production on monovaxs, get this one as you determine, anytime between 1 and 5. FYI, if you delay until age 4, a second booster isn't needed (if given before age 4, a booster is given at age 5). He suggests you at least get this vaccine by the time your child starts preschool. (from Dr Sears' Blog)
ETA: Separate MMR to return in 2011

TENS unit therapy, or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, is the use of electrical current applied to the skin for pain relief. Used for both chronic and acute, or temporary, pain, TENS unit therapy is widely used by doctors, physical therapists, athletes, and those who suffer from chronic back or knee pain. First used in ancient Greece in 63 A.D., in which people relieved pain by standing on electrical fish at the seashore, the first patient-wearable TENS unit was patented in the United States in 1974. TENS unit therapy is a non-invasive and safe way to manage pain when used properly.
TENS unit devices use high and low frequency electrical impulses to stimulate nerves, or to be more specific, opioid receptors in the central nervous system. High and low frequency TENS devices trigger different parts of the central nervous system depending on your specific needs: high frequency triggers delta-opioid receptors in the spinal cord and the supraspinally while low frequency TENS therapy activates mu-opioid receptors in the spinal cord and the supraspinally. High frequency TENS also activates muscarinic receptors centrally to produce analgesia, essentially blocking the pain gate temporarily. Low frequency treatment releases serotonin and activates serotonin receptors in the spinal cord. Essentially, TENS unit therapy is used to help relieve neuropathic pain, or pain caused by nerve damage.
TENS units are intended to reduce both chronic and acute pain including, but not limited to, postoperative pain, osteoarthritis, and chronic musculoskeletal pain. Many patients benefit from TENS unit therapy while others do not depending on individual differences and their pain threshold. TENS has also been used in obstetric care during labor, bladder-stone removal, and pain in the limbs, especially the knees.
The TENS unit devices available to consumers are essentially simplified versions of the more complex models used by physicians, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals. Featuring digital LCD screens and preset therapy programs, home TENS units give end users an easy and inexpensive way to enjoy pain relief treatments similar what they would receive during an appointment. Professional model TENS units are controlled by digital or analog means and have no preset programs, but allow the healthcare provider to adjust frequency and pulse width settings to suit the patient. Hybrid TENS units are also available that have preset therapy programs but also allow the user to experiment with the settings for the best treatment possible.
TENS therapy offers users in pain an alternative way to treat their discomfort. While medications and heating or cooling pads can be effective, many patients respond better to a TENS unit. Medications can often present the danger of side-effects, such as addiction, stomach issues from overuse, and/or allergic reactions. Hot and cold packs can be uncomfortable and are not always convenient to have available, whereas TENS devices are often completely portable so they can be used anywhere. TENS devices also treat the source of the pain (the nerves), making a quicker and more effective form of pain relief for those with nerve damage.
TENS therapy is both a safe and non-invasive way to relieve pain. However, TENS units should be used with caution and under a doctor's supervision in people with epilepsy or pregnant women. The TENS electrodes should never be placed over a pregnant woman's uterus as this may affect the unborn child. TENS units should also never be used by someone with a cardiac pacemaker due to the risk of interference or failure of the implanted device.
Proper placement of the TENS electrodes is also key for safety. Never place the electrodes:
As mentioned before, consult your doctor or healthcare professional before starting a TENS unit therapy program for proper guidance and to make sure that TENS therapy is right for you.

The nation's leading Arab-American advocacy group has suspended the longtime head of its Michigan office while it investigates allegations that he sexually harassed a number of female staffers, including now-state Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
Click on the video player to watch Ryan Ermanni's report.
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee placed Imad Hamad, 52, on administrative leave while it awaits an independent investigator's report on the allegations, the group said in a statement from its Washington headquarters.
"It's very sad. We take this very seriously, being a civil rights organization," group President Warren David told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Sunday. "We want to do what's right."
In a letter first reported in the Detroit Free Press, Tlaib said she experienced Hamad's advances when she was a staffer for the group in 1998.
"I was a victim of Imad Hamad's 15 years ago and regret that I did not have the courage to report it to the appropriate authorities," Tlaib said in the letter addressed to David and Safa Rifka, who chairs the group's national board. "Imad's sexual advances were aggressive. He made references to my breasts, he played with my hair when I was on the phone and made sexual comments throughout the day.
"This is why I only worked at ADC for 5 months."
Tlaib, a Detroit Democrat and the daughter of Palestinian immigrants who in 2008 became the first Muslim woman elected to the Michigan Legislature, said she knows of several other women with similar experiences. She said a number of current and past employees submitted complaints about Hamad in 2007, but no action was taken against him.
She said she decided to act when she learned that Hamad had recently "recruited a number of female summer interns."
Hamad lawyer Shereef Akeel said that Hamad build a high reputation from years of civil rights advocacy. Akeel said he hoped the public would reserve judgment until the group completes its probe.
"We just hope that it's resolved sooner rather than later," Akeel said.
Akeel and Dorad Elder, another lawyer for Hamad, said their client immediately "recused" himself from his duties when Tlaib's letter became public.
"We just asked that nobody rush to judgment and let this investigation take its course," Elder said.
David, a Michigan native, said Tlaib spoke to him about her experiences shortly after he assumed the civil rights group's leadership 2 years ago. He said he told her he would need a complaint to act, and her letter Friday gave him the documentation he needed to proceed.
The probe, he said, gives his group a chance to show that it practices what it preaches in standing up for the rights of all people.
"I'm glad that it's come out," David said. "It's a fact of life. Sexual harassment can happen to any organization, civil rights or otherwise."

"Largest Selection of UV Clothing & Swimwear Products on the Internet!" [listen to the entire radio interview....]
Alex and Me is the original Sun Protective UV Clothing and UV Swimwear Company. We started in 1997 with being one of the first companies to import UV Sun Protective Swimwear from Australia, and now we have the largest selection of UV Clothing and UV Swimwear products on the Internet with close to three dozen different UV Sun Protective name-brands. We are considered industry experts in consumer UV Sun Protective Clothing, UV Sun Protective Swimwear and other UV Sun Protective items. Our thousands of UPF/SPF rated items are designed for any lifestyle and for any member in the family - whether UV swimwear and UV clothing for infants, children, teens or adults. We also sell RIT Sun Guard laundry additive, which adds a SPF 30 to your existing clothing and swimwear. We are proud to feature UV Swimwear from CWear and Sun Busters UV swimwear from Australia, NoZone UV Swimwear and UV Clothing from Victoria, British Columbia, BluKuda from the U.K., MaxOut, Tuga, and UV Skinz from sunny California, SunSafe from Florida, and Koala UV and Cabana Life from the Northeast. Other brands include: Patagonia, Coppertone, Blue Lizard, San Diego Hat Co., AquaDesign, SplashSkins, PonchoPals, MyFirstShades and Soleil Chic. All Alex and Me Sun Protective UV clothing carries UPF / SPF Skin Protection of UPF 25 - 50 (UPF is the SPF equivalent for UV clothing and UPF50 being the Highest rating one can get). We sell UPF / SPF Sun Protective Clothing and Sun Protective Swimwear including: UPF / SPF protective swim shirts, UPF / SPF swim shorts, UPF / SPF board shorts, UPF / SPF rash guards, UPF / SPF athletic shirts, UPF / SPF skirts, and of course UPF / SPF protective swim suits.
The Alex & Me Company is the only UV Sun Protective Superstore on the Internet, a one-stop-shop if you will, where one can see and compare multiple brands of Sun Protective UV Swimwear and Sun Protective UV Clothing. Alex & Me's website is very easy to use and allows our customers the ability to easily view and shop by manufacturer, activity, style and/or color. Alex and Me takes pride in providing our thousands of loyal customers the most detailed UV apparel product information available. Please check back as we continue to add more brands in our mission to bring our customers the most variety in Sun Protective UV Clothing and Sun Protective UV Swimwear. Items include: Baby UV / UPF Swimwear, Children's UV / UPF Swimear, Children's UV / UPF Wetsuits, Women's UV / UPF Swimwear, Men's UV / UPF Swimwear, Children's UV / UPF Clothing, Women's UV / UPF Clothing, Men's UV / UPF Clothing, Adult UV / UPF Hats,Women's UV / UPF Hats, Men's UV / UPF Hats, Baby UV / UPF Hats, and Children's UV / UPF Hats.
UV exposure is an ever increasing health threat for everyone. However, Alex and Me's products are designed to keep the fun in the sun alive.
UV Sun Protective Clothing and UV Sun Protective Swimwear (UPF / SPF Clothing) started over a decade ago and originated from Australia, the land down under, where they really know about the risks of too much sun. Not soon after, the Alex and Me Company was founded to import and sell such UV Clothing and UV Swimwear to our loyal customer in the United States. Alex and Me is the original UV Clothing and UV Swimwear internet company, its all that we do, and now we sell multiple UV clothing name brands and styles to fit any lifestyle.
Alex & Me now carries many choices of UV clothing and UV Swimwear fabrics and styles thatall provide a UPF of 50+. These new styles, and some can be very fashionable, can essentially block out all the damaging UVA and UVB ray,s and in turn, one needs only to apply sun block to the remaining skin areas that are exposed. To this end, Alex and Me carries UV shirts, UV shorts, UV hats, and UV swimsuits that all carry a UPF of 50+ in many styles that not only can be used for swimming, but for gardening, cycling, jogging, and even just going out for a day of shopping.
SPF if for Sunscreen; UPF is for Clothing & Swimwear. SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. Some manufacturers and even some websites describe their clothing as SPF protective. However, as we all know, SPF was designed for and describes a sunscreen's protectiveness and not clothing. However......UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. To help the consumer better determine the unique protection a garment has, a UPF rating system has been developed. The UPF rating system was first developed by the Australian Government to inform and protect their citizens from the sun's very harmful rays in the Land-Down-Under. Shoppers should only consider buying a UV garment that as a UPF rating (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) and moreover, from a reputable company and/or manufacturer that promotes the UPF rating system. Such great and widely know companies as Patagonia, Marmot, Columbia, Speedo, Sportif, and RailRiders only use the UPF rating system. Alex & Me Company was the first multi-brand UV Retail store in the US and to this end, we only carry such brands that use the UPF System to ensure our thousands of loyal customers that they are only getting the very best protection from their UV sun protective apparel item.
Sun Tan Lotion, the most common way to prevent sun damage in the US, can be somewhat effective if it contains the right ingredients and it's diligently applied every hour and half and/or immediately after swimming. Other than that, the only real precaution is to cover up and perhaps spoil the fun - even if you cover up, a regular cotton shirt only has a sun rating of 7UPF and then 4UPF when it's wet.

Persian New Year comes on March 21, which up until about 1750 was the English New Year (which leads to the story behind April Fool's Day which I won't get into). What I like about Persian New Year is very much like what I like about Chinese New Year -- the food!
We have cooperated with our neighbors to produce a Persian feast for Nowruz for about 20 years now. Among the things I have learned to cook are Kookoos of various sorts -- these are sometimes described as "omelets" but are more like an egg-cake baked in the oven with savory fillings, either grean beans, or cauliflower, or herbs, and so on, and very tasty -- Soohan, which is a luxurious candy reminiscent of the pralines in New Orleans, nuts and honey, but finished brittle, Aash-e Reshte which is a thick stew with noodles in it, very much associated with Nowruz, and various Polos, rice cooked with a variety of ingredients (I think the words pilaff and pulau etc. come from this). We also hunt for items for the haft seen or "seven S" display, some are easy like sib (apple) and sir (garlic), some are harder like senjed, which is the original jujube fruit, a kind of relative of the date.
This time some friends are bringing Shah Jehan lamb, a leg of lamb marinated in yogurt and spices for 24 hours and cooked utterly tender, and so our neighbor doesn't want me to cook Aash, "too heavy." The recipe isn't Persian but the flavor works with Persian food. And after all they spoke Persian at court in northern India when Shah Jehan ruled. Here is an example of the recipe. http://www.grouprecipes.com/41879/shahj ... -lamb.html
I'll certainly make the soohan. The pic below captures the concept.
Anyone else thinking of cooking Persian for Nowruz? BTW if you ARE Persian, it's like Thanksgiving, you have to take time off from work and travel hundreds of miles to be with your family and everyone eats themselves into a coma. Since nobody at our party is Persian, we're free to shift the date and our meal will be the day before Easter, in April. When we've done it on the date, and invited Persian friends, guess what, they couldn't come, because they were flying out to L.A. to be with their grandparents...

Ypsilanti Twp. officials condemned a home on Levona Street after seizing an abundance of cats from the property. 88 malnourished cats were found living in filth and feces inside the ranch-style home. Click the videoplayer to hear from neighbors who say they could smell the odor coming from inside the home. Monday the landlord and other crews began the task of cleaning the property, to possibly make it rentable again. The woman and her father who lived inside the home legally have until the end of the day today to vacate the premises. The Humane Society of Huron Valley says this is one of the most extreme cases they have ever seen of animal hoarding. Workers are still evaluating the health issues of many of the confiscated cats, but say some of them are expected to be adoptable by the end of the week. They hope to also submit paperwork to the prosecutor's office by the end of the week to get criminal charges filed against the woman who lived in the home.

Natural Factors Stress-Relax Melatonin 3 mg. - 90 Tablets
Natural Factors Stress-Relax Melatonin helps reset the sleep-wake cycle. Natural Factors Stress Relax Melatonin can help to support natural sleep without any drowsy side-effects that sometimes result from taking chemically produced pharmaceutical sleep aids. Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland, a pea-sized gland at the base of the brain. Release of melatonin is stimulated by darkness and suppressed by light. It appears that some people may under-produce melatonin at night when it is needed.
Factor FarmsThey grow their organic Echinacea for Echinamide products on their very own farms, located in the Okanagan region of British Columbia. Dubbed Factors Farms, their farms also produce their herbs for unique formulations, all of which are harvested fresh by hand and processed within hours at their nearby extraction plant.
