8 Simple steps to improve the energy performance of your properties
An EPC is required whenever a dwelling is being rented out. "Dwelling" is a residential property which is self contained. For these purposes a dwelling is self contained if it does not share essential facilities with another unit such as bathroom/shower room, toilet or kitchen. It has to have its own entrance either direct from the outside or from the common parts (such as hall stairs or landings). It is not self contained if access is via another unit. For more information about this see the section below "For what types of property is an EPC required"
An EPC must be prepared by a registered assessor. There are a considerable number of firms who produce EPCs. Costs vary.
Once issued the EPC is valid for 10 years. It can be used time and time again during this period. You do not have to have a new EPC even if you have work carried out to the property. You can of course obtain a new one after work has been done. If you do obtain a new EPC you can only use the latest version; not an earlier one. However, different rules apply if you have a green deal assessment carried out. The new EPC will only be prepared as part of the assessment process.
If the landlord already has an EPC for the property, e.g. because they have just bought it and an EPC was provided, this EPC can be used for subsequent rentals. Likewise, the EPC provided when a newly constructed property was purchased can be used when renting the property out.
If the dwelling is converted so it contains more or fewer separate dwellings new EPCs will be required when each is rented out.
If the property is subject to a green deal plan (where improvements have been carried out which have been financed through the green deal) a new EPC showing details of the green deal charge payable will be issued once the work has been completed. This version of the EPC must be used instead of any earlier version.
An EPC shows two things. It shows the energy efficiency (i.e. the running costs for the property) and it shows the environmental impact of the property (i.e. carbon dioxide emissions). Each of these is rated A to G with A being the most energy efficient. The A to G Scale is similar to that which is attached to refrigerators. The average rating is likely to be D or E.
So far as energy efficiency/running costs are concerned there is a standardised way in which these are calculated based on the standard consumption of energy and also it is based on the cost of energy at the time the certificate is issued. It is important to remember this when comparing EPCs for different properties prepared at different dates.
The EPC will show the top actions which can be taken to save money/make the property more efficient.
Accompanying the EPC will be a recommendations report with suggested works to be carried out. A landlord is not obliged to carry out any of these works.
There are requirements for EPC to set out recommendations for cost effective energy efficiency improvements to a property. This includes improvements that will be eligible for Green Deal finance.
The landlord must:
The landlord must commission an EPC before it is marketed to rent. This means giving instructions for an EPC assessor to prepare the report and pay any fee required or agreed to do so if the assessor is willing to provide credit. A property is marketed when it is first made public but it is on the market ie. if it is advertised or otherwise communicated in some way..
If you have a valid EPC already you can use this. If not a landlord must use all reasonable efforts to see that a valid EPC is obtained for the property before the end of the period of 7 days starting with the day on which the property was first put on the market to rent.
It is the responsibility of the landlord to use all reasonable efforts to obtain an EPC within 7 days of first marketing the property for rent. If this is not possible, this period is extended for an additional 21 days, i.e. there is an overall maximum of 28 days. However, this is not a licence to delay matters. It is the responsibility of the landlord to make sure that reasonable efforts are used to obtain the EPC and, if challenged, the landlord could be required to prove this to the satisfaction of Trading Standards.
It is the responsibility of a letting agent to be satisfied that an EPC has been commissioned for the property before marketing it for rent. Alongside the landlord, the letting agent must also use all reasonable efforts to secure that the EPC is obtained for the property within 7 days (this period can be extended up to a maximum of 28 days from when the property is first marketed as stated in the previous paragraph).
A copy of the EPC must be made available to the prospective tenants at the earliest opportunity. This means that they must be given the opportunity of looking at the certificate and reading it through. No charge can be made for this.
As a minimum a copy of an EPC must be made available in this way to a prospective tenant whichever is the earlier of:
For these purposes a person who is a prospective tenant -
At this stage you do not need to hand over a copy but you can if you wish. Make available means that the EPC must be made available for the prospective tenant to look at it.
Additionally, the tenant must actually be given a copy of the EPC before the tenancy agreement is signed up.
There is an incorrect belief that the provision of an EPC can be delayed until shortly before the tenancy agreement is entered into. This has always been wrong and the Regulations make this clear.
An EPC can be sent electronically provided the tenant/prospective tenant agrees. You should keep a record of handing over an EPC, whether this is done manually or electronically. If done manually you should obtain written receipts. Only a copy need be provided; not the original.
Please note that when there is an obligation either to make a copy of the EPC available or to hand over a copy of the EPC, it must be accompanied by the full recommendation report. There is a special rule for written property particulars where only the first page need be provided.
There is no longer a requirement for written particulars of sale to be accompanied by a copy of the first page of the EPC. The asset rating does not need to be included in the particulars. However, importantly, by asking for a copy of any particulars or other written information, a person becomes a prospective tenant so at that point a copy of the EPC must be made available to that person in any event.
Where the property has current valid EPC the asset rating must be included in any advertisement which is published in commercial media ie. the newspaper advertisement or a website. This also applies if there is an EPC which is current for the building as a whole containing the property so long as the property is, itself, self contained.
The legal responsibility rests with the landlord but the landlord can arrange with the letting/managing agent to carry out these responsibilities. However, responsibility for compliance would still remain with the landlord. The agent is also liable if he fails to comply with his responsibilities under the regulations - see "What is the responsibility of agents?".
There is a special rule for emergency accommodation but an EPC still has to be provided eventually. This applies where a tenant needs an urgent relocation if there is no valid EPC available and there is insufficient time to commission one. The requirement is still to provide an EPC as soon as is possible.
An EPC is not required for the renewal of a tenancy with the same tenant. However, if there is a change in the tenants when the tenancy is renewed e.g. because one tenant moves out and is replaced by another. A copy of the EPC should be provided to the new tenant before they sign up.
EPCs are not required if, instead of letting a property out, you grant a licence. For example if you have a lodger who occupies under a licence arrangement then no EPC would be required. Legally, it is quite difficult to validly create a licence so this provision should not be relied upon, other than in cases where there is genuinely a licence in existence with the occupier, rather than a tenancy agreement.
An EPC is not needed currently for a non self contained property such as a bedsit - see further under the next section.. nor short term holiday accommodation.
The requirement to make a copy of the EPC available to a prospective tenant does not apply where a landlord has reasonable ground to believe that a prospective tenant is:-
An EPC does have to be provided in respect of a residential building which is used or intended to be used for less than four months a year or for a limited amount of use during the year where the expected energy consumption is less than 25% of that which results from all year round use.
It is important to note that none of these exemption provisions authorises the landlord to do something which is unlawful discrimination.
If there is no EPC current when the advertisement or particulars are published then the EPC rating and the SAP rating do not need to be included. For "one off" publications e.g. a newspaper advertisement then there is no problem. If you re-publish the advert after the EPC is available the advert needs to be changed to include the ratings.. The problem is for media such as a website where the publication is "continuous". You will need to update the information to include the ratings. Likewise, for property particulars. These will need to be amended to include the ratings.
The rule is that an EPC is required for individual dwellings which, for these purposes, mean a self contained unit with its own kitchen toilet and bathroom behind its own front door. An EPC is only requiredon a rental of a building or part of a building designed or altered to be used separately.
An EPC is not required for non self contained accommodation such as bedsits. Renting out individual rooms in a building with shared facilities (e.g. the kitchen toilet or bathroom does not require an EPC).
WARNING - This is the interpretation put on matters by Government lawyers. It may change. It could be open to challenge.
An EPC is required as follows:-
The Certificate gives the running cost/estimated costs based on standardised consumption and average fuel prices current with the EPC was produced. Therefore, if tenants are comparing one EPC for one property with another you need to be aware of this, particularly when the EPCs are produced at different times.
Some of the items in the EPC will clearly be under the tenants control e.g. amount of fuel consumed and others the landlord could change. The recommendation report will set out lower cost measures (up to £500) and higher cost measures, measures above this figure.
One of the sections which is of particular interest to tenants is the section on cost effective measures and the potential impact on their fuel bills.
In 2008 extensive research by the Energy Efficiency Partnership for Homes found that once the purpose and benefits of reading the EPCs were explained to potential tenants that 88% would find EPCs useful when choosing a rental property and that 26% would use it as the principal grounds for making an initial choice. It was also found that 11% of tenants had moved from rental accommodation due to the high cost of heating the premises
When asked what are the main reasons to choose a property, potential tenants gave the following reasons with 5 of the 8 top reasons related to the energy efficiency of the property
Further research carried out by EEPH in 2009, six months after the requirement for EPCs came into force, found that overall awareness amongst tenants was poor, but 23% of tenants who had moved after EPCs were introduced had read them and asked their landlord to carry out measures to improve the energy efficiency. Although landlords are not obliged to carry out any works, it may be worth considering carrying out the low cost measures to help improve the lettability of the property.
An EPC must be obtained from an accredited provider. There is nothing to stop landlords undertaking the necessary training. The EPC will be given to the landlord. It will also be recorded on a central register.
Local Authority Trading Standards is the enforcement authority. There are fixed penalties for failing to provide an EPC/make one available when required. The fixed penalty for dwellings is £200 per dwelling. There is a six month time limit for any enforcement action to be taken. There is a right for the landlord or agent to request that penalty notices are reviewed and ultimately there is a right of appeal to the County Court against a penalty notice. Trading Standards have statutory powers to require production of an EPC from landlords/agents if they suspect an offence has been committed. Investigation might follow if a tenant complains that he has not been given an EPC. An EPC will still have to be provided even though a penalty is imposed. Trading standards can ask for evidence that an EPC has been commissioned before a property is first marketed.
Under the EPC regulations there is an obligation on occupants to co-operate to allow access. Tenancy Agreements may also allow for access. Obviously, prior notification needs to be given to tenants if an energy assessor is going to visit the property.
If a property is sub-let then responsibility will lie with the landlord under the sub-tenancy (i.e. the tenant) to provide an EPC.The landlord is not in breach of the regulations if his tenant creates a sub-tenancy but fails to provide an EPC. However, in this situation, the tenant is entitled to use any EPC which he receives from his landlord to pass onto the sub-tenant.
All EPCs must be lodged on the National Energy Performance Certificate Register. This data is publicly available. Individuals, local authorities etc can access the Register free of charge. Additionally, authorised organisations such as local authorities can have access to EPC data in bulk and identify which buildings have an EPC.
Yes. You will need to contact the Register operator. You can also contact the mail and telephone preference services to register with them to stop marketing organisations accessing this information and contacting you.

The home of Sheriff Patrick Cannon was among 120 destroyed in Dade County, Ga., on April 27, but in the critical first days following the devastation, he focused his attention on his community rather than his personal loss.
"We've never faced anything that large of a devastation ... so many people in need," he said.
The first four days after the storm were the most crucial as police and emergency workers tried to account for every resident, rescue the injured and help to clear roads.
Cannon was among those who lost everything when 150-mph winds tore across Sand Mountain and through Trenton, Ga. Two Dade County residents died in the twister and 275 homes were damaged in addition to those that were blown down.
Once Cannon determined that his wife and four kids were safe, he set to work helping others.
"He has put everybody else first," said Chief Deputy Danny Ellis.
The sheriff said he was touched when other law enforcement from surrounding areas stepped in to help, donating money and helping to clean up his land as well as volunteering across the community.
"He was certainly moved by it all," said Georgia Sheriff's Association President J. Terry Norris, who gave the sheriff a check donated from sheriffs across the state.
Since then, Trenton has continued to recover. But rebuilding plans for Cannon are on hold. He plans to rebuild a 3,000-square-foot dream home on the same land as his former home.
For now, his family lives in a rented home, waiting to see if their insurance will cover the cost of rebuilding. But they are anxious to be back.
"We just can't wait to get home," he said.

What started as a small leak that nobody could see, grew and grew until it became a big problem that nobody could ignore.
And it left dozens of Santa Fe residents without water, power or a way to get around their neighborhood.
"Oh, look at all the water," said Tanya Frank.
A six-foot deep sinkhole at the intersection of Camino Sierra Vista and Onate left around 50 homes and a hair salon without water.
"I just got that far and I could see the water just gushing. It was just amazing. It was like a nightmare. It was like a sci-fi movie," describes Dolores Martinez.
A 12-inch water main burst, pushing water up to the surface, creating cracks in the pavement, until it gave out.
Santa Fe Emergency Management says hundred year old pipes and a dip in temperatures can bring the possibility of sinkholes.
"It's difficult to prevent. It can be very expensive and disruptive to replace all the water mains," said Andrew Phelps with SF Em. Management. "A lot of times it's looking for smaller leaks before they become huge eruptions."
"It is pretty scary especially if you're trying to drive by, are you going to sink? is it going to collapse," said Frank.
Phelps says terrifying images out of Florida of a resort being devoured aren't likely to be seen here.
"That's an issue in wetter climates you see a lot in Florida where it's closer to sea level," said Phelps. "The water table is a little bit different. So we really don't have those types of sinkholes right here."
Power was also shut off in part of the area.
Repair crews hope to have the water restored early in Wednesday morning.
The city says this is a good opportunity to remind people to have an emergency plan in place that includes having three days' worth of water.

The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA, English: International Automobile Federation) is a non-profit association established as the Association Internationale des Automobile Clubs Reconnus (AIACR) on 20 June 1904 to represent the interests of motoring organisations and motor car users. To the general public, the FIA is mostly known as the governing body for many auto racing events.
Headquartered at 8, Place de la Concorde, Paris, the FIA consists of 213 national member organisations in 125 countries worldwide.[1] Its current president is Jean Todt.
The FIA is generally known by its French name or initials, even in non-French-speaking countries, but is occasionally rendered as International Automobile Federation.
Its most prominent role is in the licensing and arbitration of Formula One and World Rally Championship motor racing. The FIA along with the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) also certify land speed record attempts. The International Olympic Committee provisionally recognized the federation in 2011, and granted full recognition in 2013.[2][3]
|This section requires expansion. (June 2008)
The Association Internationale des Automobile Clubs Reconnus (AIACR) was founded in Paris on 20 June 1904.
In 1922, the FIA delegated the organisation of automobile racing to the Commission Sportive Internationale (CSI), an autonomous committee that later became the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA). A restructuring of the FIA in 1993 led to the disappearance of FISA, putting motor racing under direct management of the FIA.
Event history[edit]
|This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. (October 2007)
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (May 2008)
The true history of Formula One began in 1946 with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile's (FIA's) standardisation of rules. Then in 1950, the FIA organised the first Drivers World Championship.
The World Sportscar Championship was created in 1953, and was the first points series for sports car racing in the world. The championship was solely for manufacturers up to 1981. From 1981, a Drivers Championship title was introduced and from 1985 the manufacturers title was replaced by a Teams Championship. After the 1992 season the World Sportscar Championship was cancelled and dissolved. There were no sportscar championships until 2010. The SRO Group introduced the GT1 World Championship, which was a Championship consisting of 1 Hour Sprint Races. After a successful 2010 season, the series began having difficulties and after the switch from GT1 to GT3 cars in 2012 the series folded at the end of the 2012 season. After the ACO successfully organised the ILMC in 2010 and 2011, the FIA and ACO to organise together the rebirth of the World Sportscar Championship, the FIA WEC from 2012 onwards.
In 1973, the FIA organised the first World Rally Championship. The 42nd Auto Rally of Monte-Carlo became the first ever FIA World Rally Championship event.
In 1987, the FIA sanctioned the first World Touring Car Championship. Initially a one-off series, the title was revived in 2005.
In 1993, the National Hot Rod Association was officially recognised by the FIA World Motorsports Council and the FIA Drag Racing Commission was formed. FISA was dissolved, and its activities placed directly under the FIA.
Organisational structure[edit]
The FIA General Assembly is The Federation's supreme governing body, consisting of the presidents of the FIA's numerous member clubs.
The head of the FIA and chairman of the General Assembly is the President. The President is elected to a four-year term by the FIA General Assembly, and from October 2005 onward will not be permitted to serve more than two terms. The previous President, who took office in 1993 and began his fourth term in 2005, is Max Mosley. Mosley did not stand for re-election in October 2009, with Jean Todt being elected president.[4]
The 10-member FIA Senate consists of the President of the Senate; the current and previous presidents of the FIA; the Deputy President for the FIA Mobility and the Automobile group; the Deputy President for FIA Sport group; and five further members elected by the General Assembly. From FIA Statue #17: "The Senate takes the decisions required by the management of the FIA when circumstances do not permit a meeting of the Committee or of the World Councils, especially in cases of emergency; decisions thus taken must be confirmed during the next meeting of the Committee or of the relevant World Council."
The Senate also makes accounting and budget decisions, preparing draft budgets for the World Councils. The Senate forms sub-Committees on subjects such as Commercial Promotions, in order to make recommendations and review proposals.
The FIA World Council for Mobility and the Automobile governs all non-sporting FIA activities, and is headed by the Deputy President for Mobility and the Automobile.
The FIA World Motor Sport Council governs all the sporting events regulated by the FIA. It is also responsible for the promotion of safety in worldwide motorsport, the encouragement of standardized regulations, and the promotion of motorsport in new markets, including developing countries. The council consists of the FIA President, and Deputy President, seven FIA vice-presidents, and 17 other members. The seventeen others must represent a national sporting authority for at least one international event.
The FIA International Court of Appeal is the final appeal tribunal for international motor sport. It resolves disputes brought before it by any of motorsport's National Sporting Authorities worldwide, or by the President of the FIA. It can also settle non-sporting disputes brought by national motoring organizations affiliated to the FIA.
Other organisations and posts include the Mobility and Automobile commissions, sporting commissions, the FIA Deputy President for Sport, and the FIA Secretariat.

FIA Institute Young Driver Excellence Academy[edit]
In October 2010, the FIA Institute Young Driver Excellence Academy was announced; a new programme to develop young driver talent worldwide.[6] After a three-day shootout in Melk, Austria on 6–8 February, twelve drivers were selected.[7]
In June 1999, the EU commission opened an investigation into the FIA over anti-competitive behaviour in the protection of FIA sanctioned series. A settlement was reached in June 2001.[8]
Martin Brundle wrote a column in the Sunday Times entitled "Witch-hunt threatens to spoil world title race" in which he accused the FIA of a witch-hunt against McLaren. The World Motor Sport Council responded by issuing a writ against the Sunday Times on charges of libel.[9] Brundle hit back saying that "I have earned the right to have an opinion" and suggesting the writ was a "warning sign to other journalists".[10] The 2007 Formula One espionage controversy involved accusations of theft made against McLaren, who were accused of stealing technological secrets from Ferrari.
In 2008, accusations surfaced that FIA President Max Mosley was involved in scandalous sexual behaviour. Following a June 2008 decision of the FIA to retain Max Mosley as president, the German branch of the FIA, the ADAC (the largest European motoring body), announced, "We view with regret and incredulity the FIA general assembly's decision in Paris, confirming Max Mosley in office as FIA president." It froze all its activities with the FIA until Max Mosley leaves office.[11] Press reports also claimed that Bernie Ecclestone was investigating creating a rival to the Formula 1 series due to the scandal.
On 24 June 2009, following a dispute between the FIA and the newly created Formula One Teams Association (FOTA), the parties finally came to an agreement over the future of F1. Part of the agreement was that Max Mosley must step down as FIA President and must not stand for re-election (he stood down in October 2009). A new Concorde Agreement was subsequently signed on 31 July.[12]

Abbott 27

- Published on Sunday, 18 October 2009 18:57
Although it is six feet shorter, their weights' are the same. Bill Abbott Sr., the designer (and builder), and his son Bill Jr., have kept their small shop purring along building international class Solings and Wayfarers. The Abbott 22, 33 and 36 are interspersed in smaller numbers but nevertheless make a significant contribution to their success.
Abbott 33

- Published on Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:23
That's the lilting refrain from old Abbott and Costello shows. It's also how some Abbott sailors hail their competitors on the start line. Abbott sailors are a fun-loving fraternity. They enjoy friendly rivalry and their familiar cheer is their way of not taking themselves too seriously. Abbott Boats of Sarnia, Ontario produced four sizes of Abbotts: the Abbott 28 in '64, the Abbott 22 in the early '70s, the Abbott 33 by 1980, and the Abbott 27. There are also plans for an Abbott 36, although none have been built to date. In the '60s, Bill Abbott built wooden Folkboats and the Olympic class Dragon before he built his namesake. Now, he also builds the Soling.

June 8…"A nice morning, but a brassy glare gets us worried. By 1130 we have rain and the wind picks up. With a third reef in the main and the genoa rolled back to a number three, we are making seven to eight knots. The boat is awash with breaking seas and spray keeps flying over the boat. My gourmet meal suffers as cutting and cooking have become a lethal exercise."
Alberg 30

- Published on Sunday, 18 October 2009 19:35
With more than 710 built over two decades, the Alberg 30 is a Canadian success story with American and Swedish connections. In 1962, six folkboat racers from Toronto's National Yacht Club decided that they wanted a bigger boat. They asked Kurt Hansen of Whitby Boat Works to find a suitable design and build it for them. The late Carl Alberg (1900-1986) - Swedish by birth, but a U.S. immigrant - was approached in January 1963. Neither the well-known designer nor the Canadian builder wasted much time producing the finished product. The first Alberg was launched July 7, that same year.
Aloha 8.5
- Details
- Published on Monday, 26 October 2009 17:50
The Aloha 8.5, a sound, comfortable cruiser, has a traditional air. It packs a lot of interior space into its 28 feet without compromising its long, pleasing lines and gentle curves. The $51,800 price tag (March 1985) is even more competitive than it seems because an extensive list of extra features is included as standard equipment -- a steel storage cradle, antifouling, three sails with mainsail cover and a compass, to name a few. Created in 1972 by the Brewer and Wallstrom design office, the Aloha 8.5 has been in production for 13 years and more than 200 have been sold. It was designed to provide cruising comfort and stability along with solid sailing performance. Maximizing racing performance under arbitrary rating formulae was not part of the designer's mandate.

Wow that's freakin adorable! LOL Great update and glad you weren't leaking. All least if nothing has changed yet you still have time to do any last minute stuff :-)
I know Abbie and Eric just have a telepathic agreement to freak us out for a while with all false labour stuff. So I told him no chance - you are getting evicted on 30th and you are welcome to inform Abbie that she can follow lol
39 weeks! I can't believe it's almost over, when in some ways I feel like I just started. Time is weird like that.
Ever since I found out that I was not leaking fluid I've been a lot calmer about when things will happen. I'm not trying anything to "make" progress happen, just content to be ready when it does.
Contractions were stronger last night, some woke me up. I think I even heard myself grunting LOL. I've been having really bad dreams too, even napping this morning the dreams were bad. Makes it hard to sleep. I'm physically tired--like in my body, but mentally I'm good, I guess that's something.
I'm also not hungry today and I've told myself that's ok but we WILL stay hydrated. I had a light breakfast and will probably just nibble on little things. I've been SO hungry the last week just sort of eating whatever I wanted carelessly and more protein than I usually would so maybe I'm coming off that.
Happy 39 weeks! I hope things start moving along for you soon. It is REALLY unnerving with the amount of contractions I also get which just die out. Meh. Just another 3 days for me and hopefully not long for you either!

How's it going? I hope you go in labour by Monday and our kiddos are born on the same day!
Confession time: I'm getting worn down by all this waiting and general inconsistency of how I feel. I doubt I'll ever say out loud that "I'm done" but I am very ready to hold this baby on the outside!
It would be different if I felt bad all the time or felt good all the time. But it's like one hour I'm nauseated and have to lie down, one hour I'm fine and want to go shopping, one hour I need to sleep--and it's like an endless rotation.
I got a little diaper crazy again and joined like every FB diaper selling page, while also watching about 10 auctions on ebay. The ebay ones really crack me up, I can't believe people are willing to pay full price practically for used diapers, just buy them new. Anyway, I got 10 AIO nb bumgenius for $75, which is roughly half retail (with free shipping!). I only had 2 aios, and I wanted to have them for easy nighttime changes, easing DH into it, and most especially day care (that's the REAL reason but let me justify spending money I don't have ok?). As long as the pocket OS diapers I got earlier this year fit her, I really shouldn't need anymore ever. Which makes me happy. But who knows, maybe they won't fit or I'll hate them or something.
when I was first pregnant I felt that if I ever say I'm gone I'll be judged. you can totally say it. I know I am done (may be not with whole baby business but with this pregnancy lol). It is truly unnerving how the closer we get to delivery the worse we may feel. With dd2 I was having horrid migraines 2 weeks before labour started. Then in 1 day I went from gobbling all the food and moving around with the speed of light to the worst pain I ever felt in my entire life. So yeah, it is not fun.
Glad you got yourself something you need and like! I considered cding all 3 times but I am sticking with sposies as I really really won't be able to do it. For ones, washing and drying them will be a huge pain and expensive due to all electricity used. I know sposies are bad for environment but in many other ways I up cycle and recycle a lot so I hope I do compensate somewhere (yeah, I still feel the guilt).
You Should Post Your stash Picture! !!
Varya, we all do what we can do, making any effort to reuse and not be wasteful is a benefit in my mind. There are other new moms I know who have considered Cd and decided it wasn't for them and that's ok, I know others that never gave it much thought and that's ok too. For some reason, it was the only option in my mind and when I realized that I could do it and not have it be some horrible experience I was sold. And I really can't say how happy I am the day care will do them too.
Sending you labour vibes! !!
It's ok to admit you're done. It gets tough and exciting towards the end. If that makes sense.
I used sposies with my first DD and didn't know anything about CD'ing. With my DS, I CD and loved it. I plan to with this little girl. I'm having fun selling boy prints to afford my girl ones :-). I use sunbaby Dipes. They're pockets :-). Anyway, hope it happens sooner than later
How are you today? Loved your last sewing project. How's nesting going?
Just checking in on you! Hope all is well.
I cloth diapered DD for the first year, then gave my stash to a couple in need. Overall it was a wonderful experience.
I wish I could say I felt something in the labor progress department. I had a few pains in the cervix, you know like before AF comes, so I *hope* that means there was some dilation going on.
Abby was super-super active on Saturday, like she's never been before. It was crazy. Then yesterday she was a little less active than normal. And today (even though it's still early) I can tell she's shifted into some really subdued state. So I HOPE that is a good sign.
I almost give up thinking about this stuff, I figure it will be pretty obvious when things are for real. Of course I have a little worry that what if nothing does happen?
I really don't want to end up with a section--a study I read showed that "expectant management of pregnancy (women hoping to go into labor on their own) was associated with an approximately 22 percent higher odds of cesarean delivery than elective induction of labor"!!!!!! It will change my whole PP plan, because I know the limits of my DH and there's no way he could manage helping me with my recovery and taking care of the baby. It's not a slam on him, we're a team, you don't set your teammates up for failure. Especially not someone you love and a brand new dad.
I'm pretty sure I'll get over not having the birth I want much easier than not having the PP time I want. Anyway...let's just hope it doesn't come to that!
You could definitely be dialating, you hear those stories about women being a 3-5 and not even knowing it before they are checked! How awesome would that be? lol I'm not that lucky but you could be. Abby is less active today but you are still feeling her correct? My OB stressed that if I ever had long periods of time with no movement to come in and be checked just to be on the safe side. She could totally just be out of room in there! lol
And you're right, it'll be pretty obvious when things are getting real. My very first contraction EVER came at the begining of my labor. And I was like "OH, THAT is what a contraction is" lol I was 40weeks +4 days.
You've probably heard, once you hit 40 your Doc might try and get you to schedule an induction. "If she doesn't come on her own by (insert date) we will induce on this date." And that is just for her safety, the environment inside starts to deteriorate after that point. Have you tried any of those jump start your labor methods? Or just patiently waiting? I walked the mall for hours trying to get DD out at 40 weeks, nothing. Sex, nothing! lol I even drank some kind of tea that everyone swore by. Keep us updated.

Natalie, I started with sharp pain in cervix. Then walk up with pain and feeling like water inside of me was running through a tap. Weird feeling. And then contractions started hitting and I had a bloody show. I really hope you are starting labour!!! Huge hugs
Rachel I'm using midwives, they won't recommend induction until after 41 weeks, thankfully.
I am definitely still feeling her, just very soft and she moments
Stupid mobile updates. Soft and slow movements.
I keep hoping i can just will my water to break hahaha.
I worried with my first also that I wouldn't know, but I definitely knew . The contrx woke me up at 2am and I couldn't get back to sleep...timed them for 2hrs, woke dh who timed them with me for 2hrs, and headed to the hospital when they were 2mins apart and 60s long. I was 3cm and 90% when I got there (had been a fingertip dilated and 60% the day before at my appt)...still fairly comfortable, but not for long, lol .
I was overdue and had a big baby for a ftm...I worried a little about a c/s also.
hoping and praying for a great L&D and no c/s
Eta...LOL, I do love when my water breaks because I know without a doubt baby will be arriving very soon. The downfall is that once it breaks it's crunch time...if baby doesn't deliver in x amount of hours or if there's not a lot of progress then they're more likely to augment with pit which of course increases the odds of c/s. However, I've had great induction experiences after my water broke and no contrx or progress . My water has also broken prior to contrx twice and labor did kick in by itself...those were my best pit-free L&Ds. I just labor better with no water I guess .

My 40 week appt is today at 1:15.
I'm like 95% sure that I won't let them strip my membranes if they ask. There's just not enough evidence that it works and I may need more appointments (ick) for monitoring, so no thanks.
I thought my water broke last night but apparently I'm just really sweaty.
for more progress!
!! good luck
Well I wanted to give an update...there's nothing to update! No change at all.
I was not thrilled with the news and my midwife said..."well, do you want to be induced?" in a tone of voice that said the option is still there, even though it's not what you want.
So now I have twice a week appointments---ughhhhhhhhhh. Thursday I'm getting an u/s to recheck estimated weight (sheesh) and placenta health (which is a better reason to do it) and next Monday I'm having an NST to make sure she's still happy to stay in.
Honestly aside from checking placenta health, I'm not sure all this is necessary. I'm perfectly healthy, my weight, BP, urine has always been good (except that week I was sick and bp was off). Abby moves like a champ, even with the normal slowing down, I've never felt the need to do purposeful kick counts and I can always make her move if I think she's been quiet too long for my liking. Maybe I wouldn't be so against it if I didn't have to drive an hour each way for these appointments.
At least with more time baking, she can gain more weight, which is something I approve of, I've always been a little concerned about her being on the smaller side.

John Lennon: The New York Years : A musical genius, an innovator, a peace activist - John Lennon was all these and more, and he continues to be revered a quarter century after his shocking murder in New York elevated him to mythic stature. Published to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Lennon's death, this intimate album of 150 photographs - most of which have never been published before - offers a very personal view of the rock legend in his last decade by someone who had astounding access to his private life. Bob Gruen first photographed Lennon in 1971 and became his personal photographer and close friend shortly thereafter. Over the course of the next nine years, right up until Lennon was killed, Gruen would photograph him extensively. This book assembles the most revealing of those images, taken during Lennon's years in New York, together with Gruen's reflections on the circumstances surrounding the photos, including John's relationship with Yoko, how he dealt with fame, and his experiences with fatherhood. The result is a remarkable behind-the-scenes look at John Lennon as a performer, a legend, and a person.

Dead Rising 2 Has Multiplayer, After AllThe confusion regarding possible multiplayer in Dead Rising 2 has been laid to rest, as Capcom has confirmed that Blue Castle's upcoming sequel has online multiplayer.
"Rest assured we are going to put multiplayer in the game," Capcom development head Keiji Inafune said during a recent press event, as reported by Eurogamer. "I can't go into specifics about what type of multiplayer as that directly relates to some of the game systems that we don't want to talk about at this event. It will be online multiplayer."
Inafune added that "single-player alone is not going to cut it," noting "we're at a point in game history that you need to have some form of multiplayer component in a game."
Coming to PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Dead Rising 2 is currently without an exact release date, though it's due by the time Capcom's fiscal year ends on March 31, 2010.

It took more than seven minutes for the Green Bay Phoenix to make a basket in Dayton, Ohio Thursday night and by the time the lid came off, it was too late as they fell to Wright State 64-53 in their Horizon League opener. Green Bay shot only 29 percent from the floor in the first half, 36.2% for the game. A three point basket by Greg Mays at the first half buzzer brought GB to within 9 but the Raiders scored the first 8 points of the second half to sieze control. Brennan Cougill led Green Bay with 17 points, Kiefer Sykes added 11 but didn't make a field goal until late in the second half. Alec Brown made only one of seven shots for five points. Green Bay (6-8, 0-1) stays on the road to meet Detroit Saturday afternoon. The Titans opened league play with a 74-59 victory over UW-Milwaukee.

Northeast Library Children's Corner
Published on Friday, April 23, 2010 - 9:52am
Book Pick
Nasreen's Secret School: A True
Story from Afghanistan, written and illustrated by Jeanette Winter, is a true story narrated by a grandmother who lives in Herat, an ancient city in Afghanistan. Soldiers come to the house and drag away the grandmother's son, with no explanation. Days later, her daughter-in-law leaves to investigate the incident and never returns. The grandmother is left with her granddaughter, Nasreen, who becomes silent waiting for the return of father and mother. Seeing the despair in Nasreen's expressionless face, the grandmother wants her to be educated about the music and the art of Herat. She remembers there is "a secret school for girls—behind a green gate in a nearby lane." The school is secret, because the Taliban has forbidden girls to attend school. Nasreen enrolls in school and eventually regains her voice and finds friendship.
For children, this is a story about a grandmother's love for her granddaughter, overcoming fear, instability and loneliness, and a little's girl awakenings to the possibilities of education, friendship and hope. Parents may find the topic too advanced for younger children. However, compared to some of the traditional fairytale scenarios, this is a mild story.
In Your Community
Within walking distance from your Northeast Branch is an exhibition currently on view at the Library of Congress until May 8, 2010, titled Voices from Afghanistan. It highlights letters sent by citizens of Afghanistan to Radio Azadi (Freedom), the Afghan branch of Radio Free Europe. The letters capture the concerns and hopes of ordinary citizens in Afghanistan living under difficult conditions of war and conflict. The exhibition of 65 items includes an image of a school for girls located in the Helmand province, and a story similar to Nasreen's.

The balcony stateroom was immaculately clean at all times and totally equipped with everything a top hotel provides, and the beds were more comfortable!! We dined in 3 of the specialty restaurants for dinner but since the main dining room food was very good (more of a selection needed), I don't know if we would do it again.
We could have done without the Port Canaveral stop and would have preferred an overnight stay in the Bahamas. The day at the private island, Great Stirrup Cay was beautiful and there was more than enough to keep one busy. It appeared to us that the kids and teens were having the time of their lives so this is for sure a family oriented ship as well.
Our one complaint was the smoking in the casino. We are frequent visitors to the AC casinos near home and looked forward to the casino experience on board. The casino itself is very nice however as the only indoor area that allowed smoking it was impossible to get a breath of fresh air while inside and the acrid smoke really ruined the fun of gambling for us. I wonder why a separate enclosed smoking area somewhere on the ship is not offered instead. We would take another cruise on this ship in a heartbeat, but we will avoid the smokey casino.

MILWAUKEE, WI (WHBL) - The Milwaukee Bucks are on the brink of elimination. Thursday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, LeBron James scored 22 points, Chris Bosh posted a double-double and Ray Allen became the all- time postseason leader in 3-pointers as Miami took a stranglehold of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal series with a 104-91 win. The Heat came out of the gate slow, but won the second half by a 56-41 margin and now have put the Bucks on the brink of elimination by taking a 3-0 series lead. James was 9-of-14 from the field and Bosh tallied 16 points with 14 rebounds. Allen was 5-for-8 from beyond the arc en route to 23 points to surpass Reggie Miller for most 3-pointers made in NBA playoff history. Dwyane Wade had a poor shooting night, going just 1-for-12 from the field, but chipped in with 11 assists, nine rebounds and five steals in the victory. The Bucks once again got very little from their two best players, with Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis combining for 23 points on 7-of-24 shooting. Larry Sanders posted 16 points and 11 rebounds as Milwaukee fell into a three- game hole, a position that no team has ever recovered from. Game 4 will take place Sunday afternoon in Milwaukee.

Something Fishy
After days of searching online for a breakfast buffet place, Robin and I decided to go for Something Fishy. Being late sleepers that we are, it was a struggle to get up early on a Saturday morning with the buffet closing at 10 am.
My first plate! Scrambled eggs (the one I was looking forward to), hotdogs, siomai, fried rice, bangus, pork, beef tapa (which is really gyudon), pork, shanghai rolls, and tocino. The angle makes it look less than really was :P
Robin enjoying his first plate :)
Me with my second plate! See how much I love scrambled eggs? I didn't get to take a picture of my third plate anymore :(
Super sleepy with aching stomachs. Haha! We ate too much too fast so we went for a walk in Eastwood Mall. I think we were the only ones who weren't working there. It was so early, the elevators weren't even turned on yet :P
Making a fool of myself while no one was around. These were all Robin's ideas :P
Merry go around we wanted to ride but couldn't. Haha!
Filled our bellies up for only 179php each! The buffet price is only 169php on weekdays though. Definitely worth going back next time :)
Something Fishy is located in Eastwood City Walk, beside Sambo Kojin :)
Do you know other good breakfast buffet places?

Do you believe TED is elitist and exclusive?
My main reason for asking this question is to find out how you,the members feel about TED as a non-profit organization. I've recently been looking into TED because of a research paper for school and I've been aiming to argue against the idea that TED is elitist and that they are exclusive. However I would really like to hear from other people whether you believe TED is in some ways elitist and/or exclusive.

May 31 2013: The speeches perhaps are presented by elitists,but ultimately the people who watching and talking are the ordinary.TED is so inclusive,where everyone can comment and pose conversation freely,your ideas maybe bigger than those on the stage.
As for each individual,TED reveals your excellence,because everyone talks more rational and insightful here than in other platform.We may talk idly during the day,but at the end of the day,TED provides us a place to share deep thought,which is the quality of every human being.

A sex crazed maniac, with an ADHD disorder, who tends to affiliate himself with series of organized orgies and nonstop sexual encounters. Their animal-like behaviour is oftentimes comparable to that of a hyperactive lion in heat. Once they lay their eyes upon a potential target(s), usually an African American female(s), they lose their sense and reason and become nearly unstoppable. They are commonly known as nymphomaniacs.

An age-progression photo of Kara Kopetsky has been released to mark her 23rd birthday, which is Sunday.
The Belton Police Department and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children released the picture Friday. The hope is the picture will refresh memories and prompt new information.
Kopetsky, then 17, was last seen leaving Belton High School the morning of May 4. She has not been seen since then.
Her disappearance is one of the most high-profile missing persons cases in the Kansas City area.
Questions have been raised about the Belton Police Department's handling of the case and whether they could have moved more aggressively after the initial report rather than treating it initially as a simple case of a runaway teen.
Police have focused on Kopetsky's then boyfriend, who has since pleaded guilty to choking and beating his then-pregnant girlfriend in a separate and unrelated case.
Kopetsky went missing one week after she filed for a protection order against Kylr Yust, then 18 years old. Yust allegedly claimed to have told his then girlfriend that he had killed ex-girlfriends out of sheer jealousy.
"He 'threatened to kill her ... if she left him.' He 'had a family with a ranch where there were pigs that would eat anything including bones ... no one would ever find her,'"according to court documents in the domestic violence case involving Yust's pregnant girlfriend.
No charges have been filed in connection with Kopetsky's disappearance.
"The Belton Police Department along with federal, state and local law enforcement agencies continue to investigate Kara's disappearance, and receive tips regularly," according to a news release. "We also know that keeping this case in the public's mind is essential to developing leads and information that will lead us to her."
If you have any information, call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS or Belton Police at 816-331-1500.

If this is an earnest question, you can see that he's actually giving basic Warlock advice throughout the column. The first section is basically that living is the most important part of being DPS--we can't DPS without our bodies, as much as we'd like to believe we could. The second section is about damage and who we should give Dark Intent to (Spriest and Balance Druids benefit the most from DI, with kitty druids and assassination rogues lagging behind--fire mages are viable, but not desired [cuz they're mages!]). The third section is discussing who we should soulstone (preferably healers, but tanks are good, too) and the functions of healthstone. Finally, the last section is discussing that we should never, ever, EVER pull threat onto ourselves (even if it means reducing our precious, precious pain) and just let the tank do his job.
It's really well-done, if I do say so myself. Bravo! :D

If you're headed to Bunche Beach in Fort Myers, keep an eye on your belongings...there is a thief on the loose! A woman has her wallet stolen while at the beach Monday -- by a raccoon.
Headed back into the Gulf waters off Bunche Beach, a Kemp's Ridley sea turtle named Tampa Red was set to be the star as she returned home. Dozens of people like Danielle Araica came to watch.
"I wanted to have a nice experience for my children and all this chaos happened," said Danielle Araica.
The Fort Myers woman and her two daughters were in the water when she had an unexpected encounter.
"I saw the raccoon in my bag, so I start running like a crazy woman," Araica said.
A furry bandit took off with her bright pink wallet.
"I see him with the wallet in his mouth…she ran into the bushes, so I was praying she dropped my wallet," Araica said.
Araica says the masked thief dropped her wallet off in the woods and a little boy went and got it for her.
"I have some scratches and holes on my wallet now, but it's back and its safe," Araica said.
We spotted a raccoon running around the brush near the beach. It quickly darted away from our cameras and disappeared into the woods.
"She knew what she wanted. She went right in there and got it," Araica said.
The experience has left Araica wondering why the raccoon would take off with her clutch. All she had in her bag was sunscreen, clothes and towels. No food.
"It was a trained raccoon to go steal money or wallets out of women's bags that was the theory we came up with at the beach," Araica said.

Product secures all the way to the hook.
Reviewer: A viewer from Greenville, SC US
Great head cement dries clear and binds all the way to the hook. If you aren't going to use it for awhile i've found keeping it in the freezer prevents it from evaporating.
Tried and True
Reviewer: A viewer from Missoula, MT US
Dave's Flexament system is probably one of the most well known head cements and for good reason. The bottles you get from this site are a little bigger than the ones that I can get in my local shop which is nice as I tend to run out a lot. If you aren't going to use it quickly get some of the thinner as well. Putting a little in every couple weeks will keep the glue the right consistency and allow you to use the entire bottle of glue without it going bad.
good product but bad container
Reviewer: A viewer from Alpha, NJ US
Flexament is a great head cement. They messed it up though with the plastic containers.(They used to be glass) They do not seal well at all. Which means the cement will thicken even with cap on, thus resulting in the constant need for thinner products. If you pick some up defiantly pick the thinner up as well.

Ricks, Weber to Clash Friday REXBURG, Ida., Jan. 24 (AP) Ricks college Vikings are aiming for a two-game sweep in their basketball series with Weber Junior college Friday and Saturday. If the Vikings can dump the Wildcats, they'll be well on their way to the northern division title in the Intermountain Collegiate conference. However, Weber also is looking for the title and is the only real threat to Ricks' hopes for a cham�pionship. The Vikings are unde�feated in four conference games. Weber has won the same number. Second Contest Scheduled on Tiger Court Tonight; Foul Pitches Decide Issue By Spencer L. Richards Hicks college of Rexburg, Idaho, defeated the Weber college Wildcats last night at Ogden high school gymnasium by a 74-67 score. The seven-point victory placed the Idaho outfit on the top rung of the ladder in the northern division of the Junior loop. Tonight at eight p. m., again at Ogden high, the Cats will have a chance to even it up. The two clubs were tied for first place honors previous to last night's encounter. One of the largest crowds in We�ber college basketball history saw the action-packed contest last night. There were few vacant seats in the spacious O. H. S. gymnasium. Quick buckets by Don Dinsdale and Larry Woods gave the locals a four-point lead as activities began. The Cats increased the lead to 6-1 before the visitors could get going. However, the Idahoans tied it up at 10 to 10 when the game was only seven minutes old. With the first half at the midway point the locals were still leading at 22 to 21, but from then on until the half the vis�itors pulled steadily ahead until at the rest period they held a six- point advantage at 43 to 37. The Vikings pulled still farther ahead until midway in the second half when a Wildcat rally, led by Dinsdale, Bob Harbertson and Bill Hull pulled the Cats to within 10 points at 61 to 71. Scoring contin�ued on even terms, until with three minutes to go Bill Hull, who had played his usual fine game, wrenched his back on a scoring at�tempt and had to leave the game. However, Bob Harbertson, Jim Slayden and Don Dinsdale kept scoring to reduce the lead to seven points before time ran out. Foul Line Victory The Idahoans won the game from the foul line, when they dunked 24 of 30 free throw attempts. The Wildcats scored 32 field goals, com�pared to only 25 for the Vikings, but connected with only three of six from the free-throw line. The locals, on nearly every opportunity, elected to take the ball out of bounds rather than attempt foul pitches, and failed to click on near�ly every occasion. Had they at�tempted their free throws and con�nected with only half of them they would have come out on the long side of the scoring. Glen Dallinga for Idaho was the point getter of the evening. Hitting from near impossible angles and set shots he dunked 10 buckets and made five of six from the charity line for a total of 25. Bob Haws was also hot for the visitors with 17. i Bill Hull, Weber center, made 11 baskets on tip-ins and set shots for a total of 22, but attempted only one free toss, which he missed. Har�bertson, somewhat off on his usual scoring ability, made seven goals and two for two on free throws for 16. Don Dinsdale, besides playing a fine floor game, made 13 counfers. With the division title probably at stake tonight, fans are expecting one of the top games of the year. Coach Reed Knute Swenson'g charges won decisively over the Vi�kings recently at Rexburg. but dropped the second contest there, also by a decisive margin. The two hard-rustling crews have a good chance to split their Utah series here. Both clubs have stood out in league competition to date. Returns Tonight Although it was believed that Hull had been seriously hurt when he wrenched his lack last evening, it was determined that his injuries were only minor and that he would be able to play in this evening's game.
